"Ugh, where am I?"

Izuku groans as he gets up from the ground and starts to check his surroundings. He is confused about what's going on, frantically looking around for clues.

All he can see is a stone hallway coming straight out of the fantasy story. The antique designs on each wall, the hanging torches all over the hallway burning as bright as the lightbulb itself...

"Wait, why are the torches lit up!?" Izuku mutters as he starts to shake in fear. "There's someone who lives in here!?! How long have they been stuck here without any human interaction!?"

Izuku clams his mouth shut to stop himself from muttering more words. He didn't have time to idly stand there. He needs to get out of here.

He frantically checks his bag to see what he has, but to his disappointment, all he has is an extra set of clothes in case anyone decided to humiliate him, a set of textbooks and notebooks which in Izuku's opinion is past the current curriculum, a box of riceball he forgot to eat to avoid Bakugou and a phone.

"I shouldn't let my curiousity took over me..." Izuku said as he unlocks his phone and to his horror, there are no signal in this place. "...oh, who am I kidding, this place is much more ancient than Aldera Junior High, which is a feat itself!"

Izuku immediately covers his mouth as his expression turns into one of disbelief. He can't help but wonder what happened to him. Ever since Bakugou suicide-baited him, it felt like the filter in his mouth disappeared and he felt more frustrated than before.

"After this, I need to talk to Mom..." Izuku mutters before taking out some of his riceballs and eating them. He has been hungry since the lunch break and he knows this place has the potential to be more dangerous than an average bully with superpowers chasing after you every single day because to said bully, being alive is a crime in the eyes of 'heroes'.

'Yeah right, heroes. What kind of heroes suicide bait a powerless person because they simply want to achieve his dream?' Izuku pauses himself before shaking his head. 'What's going on?! Ever since I started to see Bakugou no longer being my friend, I can't stop badmouthing or thinking something rude towards Bakugou or the stupid school itself!? It's like a hole leaking out gas from a car tire!'

Izuku pauses before facepalming to himself.

'That analogy is so weird, even for me!' Izuku start to walks toward the hallway while looking the surrounding, hoping that he might've found something useful on the path. But so far, all he can find is wall, wall, more wall, a prison with nothing but skeleton...

Izuku paused before turning to his left, the color of his skin slowly disappearing. Right on his left is an old prison with nothing but a rusted chain on the wall and a skeleton chained by it. Izuku covers his nose in disgust as the smell of a rotten corpse and shits stabs right into his nose.

Out of fear, Izuku moved away from the prison but bumped into a bar gate. He shakily turned around and saw a similar scene. He was so scared, he ran away from there.

After a few moments, he took a breather before looking at his surroundings again, given that he ran without knowing where he was going. In front of Izuku is a giant gate that is too big even for him.

The size of the gate itself manages to intimidate Izuku, but he also senses something that is not right from behind the gate. Izuku didn't know what it was, but he knew that whatever it was that resided behind that giant gate, it wasn't something good.

"Oh, man...I am royally screwed." Izuku mutter as he pacing around. "Why do you have to touch a random portal, damn it. You just have to touch it. What's the big idea, huh!? Do you think it's some sort of magical portal that grants wishes to anyone who enters!? How stupid you can be!?! Now you have to deal with the consequences of your actions, great job Izuku!"

Izuku stops before his nervous and panicked expression turns into a frown and looks back at the giant gate.

"Consequences, huh? Like hell..." Izuku mutters as he walks towards the gate. "You are very cruel, world. Bakugou has done so many crimes in his life yet he faces zero consequences. I did one stupid thing, and shit hits the fan! What the hell!?!? You despise me that much!?!?" Izuku ranted before angrily pushing the door.

But to his surprise, the door suddenly opens the moment he touches it and Izuku simply stares blankly at the gate. As it opened, Izuku saw a huge stone altar at the center, several giant statues stood on every side of the room. Izuku notes that knight statues held different weapons, and angel statues held instruments, except for one angel statue that looks like it is singing. The last one looks like a holy being holding a stone tablet, and Izuku's survival instinct tells him that it's no mere statue.

As Izuku enters, the door suddenly closes, and Izuku yelps in shock. Izuku frantically looks around in fear before noticing the writing on the stone tablet start to glow as the writing made out of solid light floats above and turns into Kanji.

"What...?" Izuku mutter before he reads. "Thou shall worship god. Thou shall praise god. Thou shall prove thy faith. Those who fail to obey these commandments...shall not be spared." Izuku's blood ran cold as he read the last one and Izuku saw the writing disappear. And in that moment, Izuku saw the light from the statue's eyes glow.

Out of pure instinct, fear, and adrenaline, Izuku was barely able to dodge an incoming laser shot past him. Upon impact, a loud explosion can be heard. Izuku's mind flashes into images of Bakugou tauntingly showing his explosive quirk.

But it was halted as Izuku felt an incredible pain in his right hand. He felt his eyes blurry as he looked at his arm and was horrified.

His right hand was cut clean and cauterized at the same time. Izuku saw this and started to yell in pain as tears started to come out of his eyes. Izuku was unable to stop screaming in pain. He felt Bakugou's explosion and it was painful, but this? It's like his hand was forced to be sunk into a pool of lava. He still felt his hand was there and it burned like crazy.

Izuku forcefully bit his lips till it drew blood to stop himself from screaming. His main priority now is to get out of this place, but one question floats in his mind.

How!?

Izuku continues to sink his teeth into his lips as he looks around, trying to figure out how to escape. The door was right behind him, but it was several feet away. And given how fast that light beam was, he doubted he could be able to outrun it.

Wait, the commandments! Izuku saw the statue and he paled. The eyes of the statue glowed, showing a tiny light dot on its black sclera. But what terrifies him is that the statue's expression changes.

It was smiling.

It's not All Might's reassuring smile he always saw on the television. It was Bakugou's cruel sadistic smile, the expression he always made whenever he took pleasure in torturing him. But, it looks much crueler than Bakugou. It's so cruel that Bakugou's smile looks like the smile of a saint!

Izuku grits his teeth out of anger, showing the blood coating his teeth. The years of anger and frustration he bottled up while dealing with Bakugou slowly come out of him.

Izuku stops himself as he reminds himself that he's still in a weird-looking dungeon. Izuku recalls the words from the commandment before he mutters.

"Thou shall worship the god," Izuku mutters before looking around. "I have to bow to the statue? No, it can't be that simple..." Izuku then notices that the statue didn't attack him. He shakily tries to get up but notices the statue's eyes glow radiantly. He immediately stops himself and crashes into the ground, grunting in pain.

Izuku looked up and saw the statue stop charging its deadly light beam.

"So...there's a certain height..." Izuku winced in pain. "...I can't cross..." Izuku then recalls the words. "Worship the god..." Izuku repositions himself to face the statue before bowing down, pulling a dogeza. It took a while before Izuku noticed that nothing happened. He looked up and a chill sent into his spine.

Somehow, the statue's smile grew wider. Not only it unnerved Izuku, but it also boiled his bottled-up anger. But, before Izuku could think of anything, the ground started to shake. The poor boy looked around frantically, wondering what was going on before he saw something that made his skin crawl.

The statue starts to take a step from the podium and starts walking. Izuku pales as he shakily gets up out of panic and he can't help but wonder one thing.

What did he do that led him into this crazy situation!?
