Shinigami (Vigilante Deku Au)

Just a little crazy - Chapter 23

Deku's Pov

I stood outside the entrance of the training ground, holding the detonator. I smiled and pressed the button. If he had survived, he wouldn't have been able to walk again. I wasn't in my right mind. I was mad that someone kidnapped a child, scared that someone found out my identity, and just feeling crappy overall. I let out my entire death aura and laughed. I need my sanity back. I doubled over with laughter as I looked at the destruction I had caused.

I had barely gotten out of the door to the classroom when I felt an overwhelming pressure. I looked at dad, and he shivered. I turned towards the class behind me and knew they felt it too. What is this? It feels like Zuku's- I gasped and turned to dad. "It's Izuku's death aura, isn't it." I asked. He nodded and started to move forward. "Something must have happened at the training grounds." I said, launching myself forward. As me and dad ran downstairs, we met with Papa in the hallway. The rest of class 1-A, either because they were curious or were worried about Izuku, followed behind us. The pressure of Izuku's death aura grew as we walked closer to him. Some people, like Aoyama and Mineta, quit walking after a little, not being able to walk forward without their knees giving out. By now, everyone was shaking really bad. We neared Izuku little by little, and suddenly, we could hear laughter.

I searched for the source of the laughter and finally saw my son. His eyes were dilated, pupils and irises slightly larger than usual. He was bent over in front of the training ground, laughing maniacally. I took a shaky step towards him, and quicker than I could blink, a knife was at my throat. He held the offending object with one hand, still standing in front of me. He smiled, but it wasn't his usual smile. It was murderous. I swallowed and felt the blade hit my adam's apple. He looked up, and when he spoke, his voice was a tad bit deeper. "You know, you really shouldn't try to sneak up on somebody with a knife. It's dangerous." I shivered and moved my hand to clasp his arm. "What happened?" I asked, his eyes still dilated. He started to explain and his eyes slowly returned to normal. "He had to die. He knew." My eyes widened at this statement. "Knew about Shinigami?" I asked. I noticed a few of my students perked up at the name. Izuku nodded, and I cursed.

Everyone was staring at the interaction, taking in every piece of information they could. Finally back to a semi-sane state, I reeled in my death aura and started to trudge back to class.

I sat in my seat and put my head down. If you just glanced at me, you would think that I was sleeping, but in reality I was thinking. If I was going to find Eri, I needed a starting point. This is gonna be difficult. I don't even know if she's still alive. I was broken from my thoughts when Iida talked. "Just a reminder everyone, the sports festival starts in 3 days. Keep training, but be sure to get some rest." I smiled and exited the room, heading home to train.

I sighed, opening the door to my house and walking in. I was getting antsy. I hadn't followed dad or papa on patrol in about a week, and I needed an outlet. "I'm going to patrol." I said, passing my parents in the kitchen. Dad scrambled out of the chair, rushing after me. "Hey, wait. At least eat dinner first." I sighed and looked at my dad. "I need to patrol. I'm going crazy just sitting here." Dad nodded and grabbed my sleeve. "I get it, but you still need food." He pulled me towards the kitchen and started packing food. As he did that, I ran upstairs to change into my vigilante gear.

I sighed contently at the feel of my clothes on my skin. The vigilante costume was silky and stretchy, very different fro the dull, scratchy uniform I wore for school. I shook my limbs, stretching a bit. Then, I hopped out of my window. I climbed the tree next to my window to get to the roof, waiting for my dad.

Finally, after almost a week, I was back to jumping rooftops. I had just launched myself off of the rooftop I was on when a smell invaded my nose. Blood. I looked to my right and could tell that my dad smelled it too. I turned towards the smell and sprinted, dad following close behind.

I stopped to catch my breath before looking over the edge of the roof. What I saw almost made me puke. In the dead quiet of the dark alleyway, a young lady lain on the ground. Her stomach was sliced open. Both her large and small intestines were pulled out of her stomach lining. Blood surrounded her body as she laid there, not moving an inch. I dropped onto the ground and walked towards her as dad dropped behind me. I slowly approached the body. Though her clothes were bloody, I slowly began to recognize her. She was another, less popular vigilante called Calico. She had a cat quirk, which gave her cat like features. Her light blond hair hid a pair of darker ears, and her tail had been turned red from the amount of blood covering it. Dad tapped my shoulder, drawing my attention to him. He was pointing at something. I turned my head, and on the wall were letters spelled out in blood. "You're next, Shinigami."
