"Yo, Uraraka! Is Bakubro okay?" Kirishima whisper-shouted from his position in the line.
"He seems fine, but he's muttering in his sleep!" Uraraka whisper-shouted back.
"Die…fucking…fucking kill you! Teddy bear." Bakugo repeated, followed by a loud snore.
Class 1A were currently alone at the moment. Deku had left a few minutes ago to change his clothes, something about wanting to be prepared 'incase more blood is shed', which did not settle well with the students or help calm them down in this situation.
Here they were, at the mercy of the most powerful and dangerous villain in all of Japan. And possibly the most unstable villain in all of Japan! The guy had stabbed his one of his own for god's sake!
"What do you think he'll do to us?" Mineta asked no one in particular.
"Maybe he'll brainwash us and turn us into his slaves?" Sero thought.
"No way, he'll probably demand a huge ransom for our return." Kaminari stated.
"Whatever it is, it won't be good. We can't do anything with these cuffs, which means we need to hope that Yaoyorozu or one of our teachers will notice something has gone wrong and will try to rescue us." Iida spoke his mind, trying to bestow the class with confidence that someone would save them.
"What did you do?!" They heard Deku's shout from somewhere in the building. They stilled in their seats, especially since a door to their right was opened, allowing a new figure to walk through. Deku, who looked panicked and angered, followed behind him.
The guy wore a black gakuran school uniform, teal gloves, white shoes, two oxygen tanks on his back, and a large, green gas mask with red lenses covered his head.
Deku wore almost the same outfit, the only changes were that his tie was now black, and his dress shirt was a blood red.
Jiro couldn't breath at the sight, but only because of the figure being dragged on the floor behind the new guy.
"Momo!"
Momo was in a white kimono, which was covered in designs of red camellias. Her skin was pale and lifeless, the only indictor she was still alive was that her nostrils expanded every few seconds.
"I did as you said, and got my target." The newcomer stated, before lifting her up and into the chair right next to Jiro. "I'll be man enough and admit that I might've used too much of my gas."
"Might've?! She looks dead, Mustard!" Deku shouted in worry, while wringing his hands together. (Yes, apparently that's the villain's name). "Was anyone else in the mansion at the time?! I don't want innocents being involved!"
"Who cares? So 40 people may have gotten poisoned as well. I'm sure the smoke detectors went off and helps on the way."
"That's the point you fucking idiot! Questions are going to be asked, like where she is and why her home is filled with pink gas! The heroes know your weapon of choice, so they'll connect the dots and trace it back to us!"
"Not my problem." Mustard replied without hesitation, before turning to walk away. "Just be happy I did as you asked. God I wish Shigaraki was still alive, he wasn't as half as annoying as you are."
Deku growled as his hand twitched, clearly angered at the guy and his rebellious attitude. A portal opened next to him, allowing the leader to stick his hand inside.
There was a click, followed by a bang, and followed by a scream of pain.
Mustard fell down to the ground and rolled into his back, holding his now bleeding, left foot.
The students turned their attention to Deku, who was holding a black pistol in his hand, its barrel smoking.
"People like you are really starting to piss me off!" He shouted, while making his way closer to the mask wearing villain. "It isn't a free world while you work for me! It's a Deku world! Where what Deku says, you follow to the T!" Aiming down, he fired another two shots. One bullet was shot into his left kneecap, and the other into Mustards right hand.
The students flinched at the noises of bones being broken and screams of pain coming from the guy. Some closed their eyes and tried imagining something else, while others looked away.
The general consensus was, no one, not even a villain that had hurt their friend, deserved this.
"I-I'm sorry! I didn't know!"
"Bullshit! You were all told from the very beginning that we, don't, involve, civilians!"
Three more shots were fired. One to the other kneecap, one to the other hand, and one to the chest.
They could hear the guy. He was sobbing now, clearly in pain and obviously not wanting to die, especially in some warehouse by the hands of his own boss.
"I-I'm sorry!"
"Yeah, I am too."
One final shot was fired, followed by the sound of plastic cracking, bones breaking, and finally, silence. The students started to open their eyes, and swallowed thickly at the sight.
Deku stood over Mustard, panting, gun wielding arm laying limply at his side, and his hair falling over to cover some of his face. The guns barrel was still smoking.
Mustard laid still on the ground below him, blood pooling around from the opened wounds, his helmet cracked and broken apart to reveal his face. A guy with light brown hair with a bloodied hole in the middle of his forehead. He looked young, and was more than likely younger than everyone currently in the room.
No longer was he the villain Mustard. Right now, it was the lifeless, bullet ridden corpse of a young kid that had went down the wrong path.
Some realized that this was the second lifeless corpse they had all seen together.
"I'm sorry you had to witness that, but those who don't follow orders must be dealt with. He has been made an example of, for current and future members." Deku informed, while using his free hand to brush back his hair out of his face. He dropped the gun, and before it hit the floor, a black portal opened to swallow it up. Raising his right hand, a light brown substance began forming around Mustards body, before it too disappeared.
With a sigh, Deku turned back to stare at the students, with his attention immediately being drawn to Yaoyorozu. He began walking towards her, both of his hands glowing a light green.
Panic swept them all.
"You stay away from her asshole! If you hurt her I swear to god you'll regret!" Jiro shouted, thrashing around in her seat.
Rolling his eyes, Deku rested both of his hands on either side of Momo's head. Her head began glowing the same green color, and soon the rest of her body followed. The long, black locks that were her hair began to float into the sky as a powerful energy swept through her body.
After a few seconds the energy died down, and Deku stumbled back a few steps. He covered his mouth and began to cough violently.
Momo's eyes fluttered open, and she looked around the room in question. Her turned attention landed on Jiro, who was tearing up.
"Momo!"
"Kyoka? W-Where are we?" She asked, before turning to Deku. "And who's he?"
"I'm-"
"That's the villain Deku, Momo! We're his prisoners." Jiro was quick to answer, cutting him off.
"Again, prisoner is such a strong word." He sighed, removing his arm from his mouth.
It was then that Uraraka noticed he was bleeding from the mouth. All signs pointed that he had healed Yaoyorozu with a healing Quirk.
But why?
"P-Prisoners?"
"Again, such a strong word." He sighed loudly, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Let's see, 17 of you are awake. Should I explain why you're all here, or wait to be interrupted again?"
"R-Ribbit?"
"Of course!" He threw his hands into the air, all attention turning to Tsu.
"Tsu!" Uraraka exclaimed in glee.
"O-Ochako? W-Where are we?" She questioned, before noticing the green haired boy in front of her. The frog girls' cheeks began to pinken.
"18, alright! Everyone shut up so I can explain what's going on!" Deku shouted, waving his hands at them all before clearing his throat. "Okay, as most of you know, I'm the villain known as Deku."
"Ribbit?!"
"I officially became the leader of this group the day of the USJ incident, where its former leader, Tomaru Shigaraki, was killed in combat against the one and only All Might."
It happened after All Might defeated the Nomu. Shigaraki grew angry and charged for an attack, but one punch was all it took to turn the once feared villain into a corpse. It was the first ever corpse the students would ever see.
"Our ideologies were similar and different in some ways. He wanted to kill All Might and prove how fragile and flawed the perception of heroes in society truly is. I personally don't care for killing heroes, but exposing the weak and corrupted ones is my endgame."
"You…don't want to kill heroes?" Todoroki asked.
"Heavens no! When I was a kid I loved heroes! I wanted to be one, but…fate has a funny way of fucking your plans up." Deku grumbled to himself. "Sadly my love for heroes has dwindled over the years, and it started when they failed to save my mother from a burning building a long time ago." He scowled at the memory.
"I remember it vividly, how her screams of pain echoed through the night. How I watched a number of heroes, all of whom that could've done something to help, stand outside talking with police with news crews. Out of the 10 heroes who showed up, only three had actually entered the building. My mother was the first causality that opened my eyes to the truth. Some people shouldn't and aren't meant to be heroes!" His eyes switched from the group to Bakugo, before going back. Something Uraraka had noticed.
"Okay…Sorry about your mom and all, but what does that have to do with us." Hagakure questioned.
"Why, you're going to help me of course!" He smiled, bright and wide. "Not voluntarily, obviously. You'll help me by just sitting there."
"How?"
"19 students from Japans most prestigious hero school going missing merely weeks after they were attacked by villains? Heroes trying to failing to locate and rescue them? The media are going to have field day with this!" He grinned. "Tell me, how do you think the public will feel about this? Knowing that the heroes, who sworn to protect you all, let you all fall from in-between their fingers?"
"So that's your plan? Make the public hate heroes over something they couldn't prevent?" Tsu asked.
"Exactly. And as a cherry on top, I'll be exposing someone in this very room for what they truly are. A criminal! How do you think the public will react once they find UA allowed a criminal, known by the police and heroes, to enter a hero school?"
What?! One of them, a criminal? That's ludicrous! UA was a hero school, they'd never allow a known criminal in! Besides, who was bad enough to be a criminal?
"What the? Oi, the fuck's going on here?!" A voice shouted, causing some to give sigh in relief. "No way, Deku?!"
"Hello Kacchan." Deku smiled.
(Spoiler for some, but explanation for all. Yes I know Mustards gas is Sleeping gas, not poisonous. But a number of students were injured from it in the anime and manga, so I'm just going to say over-exposure can poison someone.)
