Villain Deku's Downfall

Chapter 4

Midoriya couldn't be sure what it was. The fact he had to stay with all these small-minded-future heroes in these dorms, and have security cameras in his room at all times meant he always had to change in the downstairs bathroom unless someone wanted an extra bonus for capturing him.

The room itself was nothing special. Pale, untextured walls and a brown desk and dresser. The sheets were gray along with a black cover up with some black pillows.

Stuffed in the dresser and closet were just school uniforms that he would have to force himself to put on every day. Right alongside his old villain uniform which consisted of some formal suit that cut off at the sleeves and a embroidered mark of a bunny mask right above the chest pocket. Really basic, even for a villain.

Homework covered things he was already familiar with. He had thought more would come his way from this transfer and change of scenery but he guesses not. On the other hand it was great they left him some other clothes behind. Aizawa mentioned another person of the school's staff taking his measurements for clothes as he was sleeping. Highly creepy but nothing he could do 'bout it now.

Contrary to popular belief Midoriya wasn't a fan of changing in front of others. Maybe in person in a true locker room this would be fine. Not someone stalking him from a few camera angles that granted them a view to the whole room. So he grabbed the clothes he wanted and skipped his way down the stairs. They thought it was going to be better to have him up a few stories so he couldn't jump out the barred window (which he wasn't sure how to do in the first place), or so that Midoriya didn't do something stupid while he downstairs. If it made sense, nobody wanted him sneaking down in the middle of the night to rummage through stuff he wasn't supposed to.

They locked his room at 12:00 PM anyway so it didn't matter much. If he knocked the door down it would alert them of what was happening in a matter of seconds.

Right as they saw him emerge from the stairwell their controllers to games and phones were frozen in mid air at the shuffling. A few consulted others to continue on as no one was there behind them; one of them being Bakugo. Go figure huh?

He was internally hoping that the guy would start something in class or after school. To him that seemed more fun than heart breaking. Think about it more bluntly; he now had the facilities to mess with the boy who'd been teasing and bullying him to the villain path. It seemed great. Perfect even. It was hard to push down that opportunity when it presented itself.

But Bakugo stood by and watched like he didn't know who he was. Like they weren't once close friends until Midoriya began to admire him and follow him around like a lost puppy to a deemed rightful owner. Back then things were different though, Midoriya didn't have the strength to bite back. Only had the strength to sit himself still and take whatever Bakugo and his personal minions have to him. And at the time he thought he deserved it because it was his fault for being so ridiculously weak.

Now he knew he wasn't and he was sure he could use it again Bakugo to make his life here and new living hell. Not that he'd have planned any differently if Bakugo didn't go here.

He leisurely went back to the painfully small room when he finished changing. He wasn't as you would say "prepared" for whatever shit they had going on tomorrow. All he knows is that when the end of the day came hero training would come too. Which only meant a singular thing—All Might was going to be teaching it and wouldn't recognize a single thing he did to the boy a few years back.

He had to remember. They only cared if you were rich or had confections/important to themselves. That's all it was. Nothing more and nothing less. Their duty was to "save" people but they always changed their motives when it was someone they didn't feel the need to save. He's looked into it before. Most red used by higher ups had as little as one important person. It would bring bad rep to their name if they saved one person when they had the capability to rescue the rest. So if one was in danger, the rest got lucky by chance.

The other ways people ended up saved from a villain attack was that people had been rapidly calling in and shouting for help. Could not go out in public, see a bad situation that people were pleading for help for, and walk away.

Midoriya was going to wait. They'd do digging on his names and crimes. Find his old school and the teacher's names, calling in asking about any strange behavior or some sort of path they think he crossed to end this way. They'd be shocked and dismiss it until they remember the constant complaints

of bullying they got for the big time name: Bakugo Katsuki. That's when it would all go downhill, who knows what will happen after. It wasn't about getting about Bakugo deserved just yet. It was about them recognizing why he chose this way of life rather than the more successful route of being a hero.

Which brings him back to the lingering topic in his head. Did they fail to notice he was quirkless?

Midoriya silently shut his light oaken door and glanced at the clock. The hour hand being on the six and the minute hand landing on the eight. If it was 6:40 that meant he had just about five hours and twenty minutes until he was locked up in here. This was acting more and more like a jail and a cell then he'd think.

The horrendous uniforms, the bed time, the barred window sill, and the overall layout of this poorly designed room. He had to give the credit to them. They made this large building in under a week or two for the protection of their students. He wishes he could've been there for the invasion that Shigaraki and the rest did. He planned it, but that's all.

The plan was full proof if it weren't for All Might not showing. As if he had more important things to do. Midoriya couldn't even laugh in their faces from the failure they just experienced. And it was 100% because he was the one to make the plan. Hack the schedules, plan the attack, separate the groups according to the landforms in the USJ. It was laid out perfectly and they never found out it was him—or that the cameras and computers had been hijacked in the first place.

If there was anything that left burning hot anger in the pit of his stomach it was his past with Bakugo and the menace everyone said to be their number one. The person they could always depend on.

There's one goal he wanted to achieve before he died. And that very goal was to either destroy his whole career and get rid of him entirely. Because what he knew about him was more than he should. About his quirk and about him.

He knew more than anyone else did and that put him at the highest advantage possible. Toshinori Yagi was /not/ who he claimed to be. Was not what people made him to be. He was someone so visibly different than whatever he let himself show to be. That's what Midoriya hated him for the most.

He wasn't who he said he was. And he played the role well.
