Watching.
Waiting.
A looming dark creature
Brains bursting from a too small head
Scarred over
A creature of darkness
Pure evil
Intelligence of an unrivalled caliber
And...
A missing heart
Time

Red eyes gleamed down at the figure crumpled in its chair. The figure that had cracks of decay, crumbling the very structure of its throat. Threatening to rip life away from one, now small, but very important figure.
That powerful (he said cursed) hand retracted from that dangerous situation, cutting the power that had the string of life of the figure in his hands. Quite literally.
"Don't kill him."
Of course.
Master's orders.
Master saved him, of course he did whatever master asked.
Even if... those orders went against his own will.
"Tomura... Izuku Midoriya."
"The little prince?"
"Prince?... I want you to take him."
"Why? He's got the same goal as us, you know this. He said he'd stay out of the way."
"I just need to talk to him. But Tomura, is his word truly trustworthy?"
"Yes... he's kind... he's nothing like the others."
"But... if he's playing with you... this is a lesson I can't let you learn on your own. You mustn't let anyone get in your way. Izuku Midoriya is in our way. You are to warn him, to break him first."
"Master..."
"I saved you Tomura, do you trust him, or do you trust me?"
"..."
"Goodnight Tomura."
"SHIGARAKI, WHAT THE HELL!?" Dabi yelled at him.
He ignored him.
He could see the blonde brat's eyes widen, in a way that seemed to scream 'NO!' . Was... was he going to have a panic attack? No, he was fighting it back. Tomura scoffed mentally. Of course the brat was strong, but he was oh-so mentally scarred to compliment it. What the hell were those heroes doing?
Heroes? Why did he care about what the heroes were doing?
Because they were in his way?
No.
Because of Izuku. His little prince.
His?
That...
Tomura stormed out of the bar, into one of the back rooms.
What... was happening to him?
"...ku!..."
"I--ku!..."
"Izuku!"
