Izuku and Rachel Gardner

In ground zero's building

All might: STOP! YOU'LL KILL HIM!!

Bakugo: Only if he dodges!!

Bakugo pulls of the pin from his gauntlet as a bright light takes over covering the grenade like gauntlet's design. Izuku slowly backs away as in an instant the blast was nearing him, out of desperation Izuku dodged to the side but some of his jump-suit was damaged from the blast radius. He fell onto the floor as the wall behind him was destroyed from the blast of bakugo's explosion, he was about to try and stand up before a blue light emitted from inside of his chest.

Izuku: Huh?

Bakugo: What the-?

He looked up at Bakugo who looked just as confused as he was.

Izuku: K-kaccha-

The light enveloped Izuku blinding anyone who could see it.

All might: Y-YOUNG MIDORIYA!!

But it was too late...Izuku Midoriya...was gone...

-

In an unknown location

Another blinding light appears and outcomes Izuku Midoriya as he plum it's towards the ground.

Izuku: AGH!! Ooooow...where am I-

His voice freezes as Ice envelops his spine as he observed the area he was in. It was cold as Izuku analysed the area, it was dark but Izuku could see the filthy streets, the broken windows, the abandoned houses with no man or woman to be in sight.

Izuku: W-Where am I-

???: You have no entered the play zone.

Izuku flinched hearing a metallic, feminine voice coming from the alleyway in front of him. He contemplated going to see if this was a person but what if their dangerous?

Izuku: 'I better be cautious then...w-who knows whose out gear but...how did I GET here?'

He gulped down the large lump forming in his throat as he quickly ran towards the sound. He slowed down at the end of the alleyway to see who talked, he was shocked to see a small girl with blond hair and blue eyes defiantly younger than himself. She stepped out and looked around the area obviously scared, alone and confused, something that broke izuku's heart.

Izuku: 'What was a girl like her doing here? Wait why am I here? Why is a elevator here?'

Questions had to wait, he may be a hero in training but he's all might's successor and he has to show that everything is alright. why? BECAUSE HE WAS HERE!! He pumped his fist in the air and put on a smile, swallowing his own fears as he stepped outside of the shadows and said.

Izuku: H-hello. Are you okay?

He asked waving in a friendly manner as he approached the girl with good intent. The girl looked at Izuku nervously as she stepped back.

???: W-who are you?

Izuku: I'm izu...call me Deku. Whats you name?

???: I'm...Rachael Gardner...do you know where I am?

Izuku: S-sorry I don't, I just...appeared...I don't know how or why but...here I am hehehe. What a-are you doing here mrs Gardner?

Rachael: Erm...I was in a hospital for...counselling because I...witnessed a murder of someone. Now I'm just trying to find my mom and dad...

Izuku: I'm sorry to hear that but...hey I'll try and do my best to help you find your parents!

Rachael looked at the teen obviously not exactly trusting him but not denying him either. She looked down uncertain before looking up at Izuku nodding her head, Izuku breathed a sigh of relief before walking to the elevator and seeing it still there, he looked at Rachael who looked like she was about to speak.

Izuku: Do you know where this goes?

Rachael: Y-yes but it doesn't lead to the exit.

Izuku: Oh...

He looked down the narrow alleyway feeling a lump forming in his mouth.

Rachael: Come on.

She trotted past him making Izuku quickly grab her arm.

Izuku: N-no! We don't know what's down here so...I suggest we take a more...open path...

Rachael looked at the unnaturally haired green haired boy before nodding.

Rachael: Okay...you can let go now...

Izuku realised he was holding onto her and blushed out of embarrassment and that he just TOUCHED a girl, a pretty one at that.

Izuku: S-sorry! - he quickly let go and gave a nervous smile before looking down a open path - Come on.

He and Rachael walked to the left as an open area could be seen full of abandoned buildings but it led somewhere. Izuku gave one last nod to Rachael before proceeding into the street.

As they walked Izuku kept on looking at the building obviously paranoid about his surroundings.

Rachael: How did you get here?

Rachael voice broke him out of the constant searching as he looked behind and put on a uncertain expression.

Izuku: I don't...know...one minute I was by my friend and the next...a blue light enveloped me sending me into an alleyway from here...

Rachael: oh...

...

Rachael: Why are you dressed in that?

Izuku: Huh?

She pointed to his burnt hero suit.

Rachael: it's burnt to. Did your friend do that to you?

A flashback reminded him of THAT.

Izuku: O-oh it's my hero suit and my friend...yeah he did...

Rachael looked at the boy in confusion.

Rachael: Hero suit?

Izuku: Y-yeah-

SMASH!!

Izuku widened his eyes as a tall, slim figure crashed through a wooden door, from the looks of it he had bandages covering his face and wrists with black hair sticking out, he was wearing a jumper with jeans and shoes but what was more noticeable was the GIANT FREAKING SIFE HE HAD IN HIS HAND!!

Izuku staggers in surprise as he fell to the ground in fear while Rachael backed away slowly. The figure had his arms out with a insane smile on his face.

???: HAHAHAHAHAHA!! YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN THE LOOK ON YOUR PLAIN LOOKING FACE!! HEHEHEEHEHAHAHAHA!! But now...you've got the look of fear!

He held up three fingers.

???: You've got three seconds and...try to run away!!

Izuku didn't waist a second as his body seemed to move on its own like when he tried to save kacchan and uraraka as he grabbed Rachael's hand and ran the opposite end of the serial killer.

???: WAIT! DONT FORGET TO SCREAM AND CRY OR WHATEVER!! LET ME FINISH YOU ASS!!...3...2...1...

He smirked as he chuckled evilly saying each number in a childish way. He ran after the pair as he just saw them turn a corner into another alleyway, he dashed after them into the alleyway and saw a door...

???: Found you...

He aimed his sife to the door before slashing at it, he made a small gash and stared through it.

???: Here's Zack! Huh?

He exclaimed as he saw no one in the house, his smile returned as he kicked down the door and saw a crate by a filthy sofa. He approached the crate with crazed eyes and devilish smirk.

???: Where are you, you little bitches? We playing hide and seek now...GET OUT HERE SO I CAN KILL YOU!!...yeah I guess I wouldn't come out if I was you too, hehehehehe.

He aimed his sife above the box before stabbing it multiple times showing now mercy, on the final slash his smile turned to boredom as he remarked.

???: well not in there.

He retracted his sife and laid it on his shoulder carrying it with ease before walking out of the house and into the street. Inside of the fridge, Izuku looked on with Rachael praying for their safety, when the murderer was gone Izuku breathed out a sigh of relief before he exited the street and helped Rachael out of the fridge.

Izuku: We have to leave before that guy comes back. Come on.

She nodded as Izuku led her into another room with a door, they went through the door and looked around not seeing the guy anywhere. He turned around and felt his blood run cold as Rachael...wasn't there...

Izuku: '...SHIT!!'

He cursed as he immediately ran the opposite direction whispering.

Izuku: Gardner...Gardner?

He turned another corner and felt his face pale seeing Rachael stitching up a already dead bird...WHAT!?

Rachael: you'll be just fine. - she stood up and gave a mini pray.

She turned around to see Izuku who looked like he was going to throw up from A. The dead bird and B. The fact that she was STITCHING UP A DEAD BIRD!!

Rachael: We should go. I'm sorry for leaving you I just saw this bird and...I got upset how pitiful it looked so I stitched it up...Deku?

Izuku:...I...I...c-come on...

Rachael: Okay.

Izuku avoided his eyes on both the bird and Rachael as they walked past the corps and started to run towards that direction. They saw a doorway with a sign that said 'elevator', both teens gathered up their breath as Rachael comments.

Rachael: Good...there's an elevator here...

???: HEHEHEHAHAHAHA!!!!

...

Izuku: Oh no...

He turned around with his eyes widening in fear seeing that same guy that tried to kill them.

???: Pika boo I found you! No head start this time... - he lifted his head revealing his glowing red eye - YOU DONT EVEN GET ONE SECOND!!

He was about to slash at Rachael when something clicked inside of Izuku's mind... he raised his arm and punched the stranger in the gut with one for all powering his arm causing Zack to be sent flying towards a wall and to his surprise his arm...wasn't broken!!

Rachael: W-what was that-?

Izuku: No time to explain!!

He grabbed her sleeve and dragged her through the hall way as the stranger got up holding his stomach in pain, their eye glowing a deathly, red colour as he shouted.

???: YOU STUPID SHIT!!

He grabbed his sife and rushed towards the two with the punch slowing him down ever so slightly. Izuku and Rachael were outride of the elevator as he quickly pushed the button and the door opened, they both entered inside and pressed another button, Izuku saw the guy approaching but wasn't fast enough for the door to close with the stranger only getting one dent in at the last minute. Rachael backs away from the door while Izuku slides down the wall a let's put a shaker breath.

Izuku: What the hell...

He muttered, voice cracking. Rachael looks back at her saviour and got worried.

Rachael: Are...you okay?

Izuku: Yeah...yeah I'm fine...how about you?

Rachael: G-good...

The elevator came to a halt as it revealed a dark hospital-like hallway. When Rachael took a step Izuku Immediately got in front of her and observed the area they were in.

Izuku: This...looks like a hospital...was this where you counselling took place.

Rachael: I'm...not sure but it looks familiar-

Click *Clack *Click *cla-

No more needed to be said as Izuku grabbed Rachael's hand and dragged her the opposite direction of the noise sweating bullets in the process. They continued to run until Izuku found Rachel gasping and stopping but before he could meet her eyes a voice called out to them.

???: Whoa there you too. Rachael! I'm glad to have found you.

Izuku turns around uncertain and saw a doctor while Rachael looks confused.

???: It's me, you councillor, I'm your friend, dr Danny.

He lets go as Rachael does the same to Izuku who keeps his guard up. He seems friendly enough but still! No reason to trust him but...

Izuku: Your really her councillor?

Dr Danny: Indeed I am...excuse me but I'm not quite familiar with you, who are you?

Izuku: I'm D-Deku.

Rachael: Are you the person that I'm here to see?

Dr Danny: Yes I am, did you forget? - he asks petting her head.

Rachael: Erm...

She glances to Izuku who looks curious to the question the doctor asked, she looked away and onto the ground.

Dr Danny: Aw, poor thing, you do seem to be a little bit disoriented. But it's alright, I'm here to help. I'll even help your new friend here.

Rachael looked up from the ground and to the doctor.

Rachael: Then tell me...

Dr Danny: Yes-

Izuku: What the hell was that downstairs, why is that place in a hospital and where is everyone! Why should we even trust you!

Izuku got in front of Rachael pushing her back.

Izuku: Even the most trusted of friends can betray you...trust me I know but just look around! Give me a reason as to why we shouldn't run away from you!

The doctor stared at the boy before chuckling.

Dr Danny: You have every right to be paranoid but I can assure you that I am here to help her and even you if you co-operate. Do not worry, I'm assuming you came across a murderer? Don't worry...he won't come up here - he leaned down to match izuku's height - your both safe up here now. I'll answer your questions in due time but first...we just gotta work together...

Izuku: Why should we-

He was cut off feeling a hand on his shoulder, he looked over and saw Rachael.

Rachael: Lets just trust him. I'm sure we will be fine.

Izuku looked at the girl hesitant before lowering his head and saying.

Izuku: Fine...but if anything fishy happens, we're gone.

The doctor stood back up with a smile.

Dr Danny: oh don't worry...everything will be alll right.

-

Dr Danny stood by Rachael as they walked while Izuku trotted behind the doctor transfixed on his movement as he watched them talk.

Danny had a smile on his face but on the inside...he was angry.

Dr Danny: 'damnit! How am I supposed to get my beautiful little eyes if HE is always around...now what to do...oh?' Well yes one of my main operation rooms are available, until further matters you two will definitely be safe and unharmed before I may find a way to the next level.

Rachael nodded with her hand close to her heart while Izuku felt a chill go down his spine.

Izuku: 'I don't know why but...I really don't trust this doctor...'

He looked at Rachael.

Izuku: 'she's my main priority, I've got to get her out of here and reunite her with parents, then I go to the police and try and find all might or mom. I need to get home ASAP.'

They turned another corridor before Danny opened another door revealing a neat and tidy doctor room with all the medicines being sorted out into sections. Danny went to a station and started to sort out some medical supplies before turning to Izuku.

Dr Danny: Oh Deku, could you just come with me for a quick sec, I need another pair of extra's.

Izuku eyed the doctor suspiciously while Rachael sat on the table looking between the two.

Izuku: Okay...sure.

Dr Danny: Splendid! Now please follow me-

And that's how Izuku found himself wrestling a door handle inside of a janitors room.

Rachael didn't move when dr Danny came in with some boxes before layering on a table, Rachael looked at the doctor then the door seeing no one, Deku wasn't there.

Rachael: Doctor? Wheres Deku?

Dr Danny: Oh well I asked him to get some more supplies from another supply room so he'll be back later...

Rachael: Okay...

She narrowed her eyes as uncertainty filled her body as worry pulsed in her mind.

Rachael: Maybe I'll...go help him-

She started before the dr grabbed her wrist.

Dr Danny: You know Rachael...you have such exquisite eyes unlike mine as you see...one of mine don't work very well...

She starts to tremble as she tries to struggle to get out of his hold.

Dr Danny: No, no, no. Don't do that, the fear...they ruin those pretty orbs...please...your breaking my heart!

He shut the door and locked it right shut as he turned to Rachael.

Dr Danny: I want to gaze into those pretty eyes of yours forever! - he placed his hands on her cheeks - say...I forgot something in the back room, mind fetching me it while I get my supplies ready? It's awfully dark in there an I'm afraid I'm too blind to see so be a dear and go grab it. You'll find it i'm sure.

The door slammed shut as Rachael walked into the room with her hands clasped around each other as she examined the room she was in. It looked like any storage unit with cupboards and random items lying around and eye balls...wait... She approached another table before seeing multiple eye balls in different jars, she recoiled and said.

Rachael: Are those...eye balls...?

Dr Danny: Poor thing...you still don't remember do you?

She whipped around to see dr Danny looking down on her slouching a bit. He approached her more and more as he said.

Dr Danny: Come on remember...remember outside of the hospital

Rachael: I'm sorry...I don't think that happened...

She backed up into another eye canister.

Dr Danny: Haha! Will you look at that! You found it!!

Rachael: This fake eye...it belongs to you?

Dr Danny: Correct! Doesn't that jog your memory at all!?

She doesn't respond instead only looking at the doctor.

Dr Danny: I understand, your memory is still a little hazy.

Rachael: I-I should go find Deku-

She stopped as he holder her shoulders and looked her in the eyes.

Dr Danny: Can't you see!? We're finally alone! - he stroked her face gently - and I won't let anyone take that away from us...

-

With izuku

Izuku: Delaware...SMASH!!

The door can't flying and into another room as some of the doorway was destroyed from the air pressure sending a mini shockwave throughout the building. Izuku grabbed his broken finger in pain as he scowled at the chair that was holding him before regaining his composure, he moved his elbow brace to his finger as a way to cover abs suppress the pain in his finger. He shook his head and started To run the opposite way he went as millions of thoughts passed through his mind.

Izuku: 'what if the doctor killed her!? But why wouldn't he just quickly kill me when he had the chance...surgery room...oh no... - he started to pick up the pace - he's going to some type of surgery or something!! Hold on Rachael-!!'

???: HEHEHHAHHAHAHA!!

Izuku: that voice...

His face went a deathly pale...

Izuku: 'that stranger on the bottom floor...he's...here...the dr lied...'
