I am the Mastermind {Villain!TodoBakuDeku x Reader}

{Chapter 8}

Izuku finished taking care of your knees, looking up at you with a soft smile. "There. They shouldn't get infected or anything now." He said definitively, standing up. It seemed like Katsuki and Shoto were done fighting now. Izuku ran a hand over the cut he gave you. You winced a little. 

"Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you there." Izuku apologized, although he didn't mean it. Of course he wanted to hurt you. It was how he showed his love for you. His adoration. "And just what's going on here? You're not having fun without us, are you?" Shoto asked, next to the two of you. You weren't sure if he'd just appeared or walked over, since you'd been focused on Izuku.

"No way! I'd never do that." Izuku said, looking up at Shoto. The taller boy didn't seem to believe him. You felt uncomfortable. You wanted to cry. Your eyes welled up with tears again. "Ah, right. Of course. My apologies." Shoto replied, though you could hear the venom in his tone. He wasn't happy. 

It was when Katsuki stepped closer that you started crying. You pulled your knees up to your chest and tried to be as small as possible. It was hard to muffle your soft cries, even when you were crying into your knees. "Doll? Are you alright?" Izuku asked, looking concerned. Surprisingly, Shoto also seemed concerned. 

"You're not scared of Kacchan, are you? Don't worry, he won't hurt you. Not unless we tell him to." Izuku said in a comforting tone. Although, that wasn't really what you wanted to hear. "I-I wanna go home..." You muttered, holding onto yourself. They almost felt bad for a moment. "You are home, dear." Shoto replied, putting his hand on your shoulder gently. 

You shied away from Shoto's touch, sniffling. "Hey, it's okay. We're here for you, doll." Izuku said, leaning down in front of you. A soft whimper escaped your lips. "Look at me, sweetheart." He said softly, cupping your cheek in his hand and wiping your tears. You hated to admit it, but the comforting touch was nice. It helped. 

"I-I just wanna go home..." You said quietly, looking back at Izuku. He rubbed your cheek with his thumb. "I know, I know. It's okay." He replied, holding his arms out for a hug. Hesitantly, you hugged onto him. His skin was cold. Unlike Shoto and Katsuki, who were at least partially warm. Strangely, though, it was still nice. It felt like you hadn't gotten physical affection in years.

Izuku held you gently, contrary to how his touch had been in the beginning. You weren't sure whether this was a welcome change or not. Regardless, the comfort was nice. He held you the whole time until you eventually calmed down. "There, there. You're okay." He said softly, looking down at you. 

You sniffled a little, wiping your tears away. Izuku smiled softly, brushing your hair out of your face. He seemed surprisingly gentle and kind. It was almost suspicious. "Izuku." Shoto said quietly, looking down at him. Izuku looked over at Shoto, seeming a little confused. The taller boy glanced over at you for a split second before looking back at Izuku. 

Izuku nodded, getting up. "Hey, doll. There's something we want to show you." Izuku smiled, holding his hand out to you. Hesitantly, you took his hand. He lifted you up from the floor. You didn't trust this, but you figured you didn't have much of a choice. Izuku led you over to the door, keeping hold of your hand. The hold had started off nice and gentle, but it was tighter now. 

Shoto opened the door and you had to resist the urge to run out of it. Katsuki stood behind all of you, almost like he was keeping watch. Shoto walked out first, looking back at Izuku. The green-haired boy led you out of the room. It took everything you had to not try to run. Katsuki walked out behind you and Izuku. He shut the door behind himself. "Let's get this over with." He spat.

Shoto led the way through the maze of hallways. You did your best to make a mental map of it all, but you were moving too fast to really keep track. Katsuki made sure of that much. Not to mention the death grip Izuku had on your hand. You couldn't run even if you wanted to. It wasn't long before the four of you reached a door in another part of the building. For the most part, it all seemed the same.

For all you knew, you could've gone in a big circle. But this area just seemed generally different. The atmosphere was more sinister. Shoto and Izuku exchanged a nod before the door opened. Shoto went inside first, holding the door open. Izuku led you into the room, getting out of the way so Katsuki could get in. The door closed. In front of you was a wall of glass. On the other side was a young woman. She was bound just as you had been. A blindfold covered her eyes.

The woman seemed beat up. Blood soaked parts of her clothes. Bruises and cuts littered her visible skin. Her hair was unkempt and messy. She looked almost uncomfortably skinny. It seemed like she'd been here a long time. She didn't even tilt her head upward when you walked in. She kept her head down. Like she'd broken a long time ago. 

You backed up a little, horrified. "This little toy belongs to the other part of the organization. Usually, they'd take care of this stuff, but we made a special request." Izuku explained with a soft giggle. The woman looked up the slightest bit at the noise of the unfamiliar voice. Not that she could see, of course. 

Katsuki stayed closer to the back of the room, leaned against the wall. He kept his gaze away. "They were going to kill her anyway, but now we can do it!" Izuku smiled. He seemed excited about this. You tensed a little at his words. She was going to die? "Katsuki, can you go take her blindfold off? She won't be needing it." Shoto said, looking back at Katsuki for a moment. He sighed and left, supposedly going over to the other part of the room. 

Katsuki appeared on the other side of the glass as he walked into the room. He walked up behind the woman and untied the blindfold. She winced a little as her vision adjusted to the light. Her gaze focused on you. Almost like she recognized you. Katsuki put the blindfold in his pocket, leaving that side of the room. 

"Now the fun can begin!" Izuku exclaimed, excited in spite of what was about to happen. 
"Isn't that right, Rena?"
