Bound By The Past (Aizawa x Reader)

Chapter Sixteen

The group stopped in front of a run-down bar a little ways away from their previous vacant. Shigaraki gestured for them to head inside. Once inside, they all sat down and Shigaraki spoke. "The ring took her? You're sure?" Aizawa nodded. "Yes. They even left a note." Shigaraki hummed in response. "Well I think I might know where she is, but it's dangerous to go undisguised." Aizawa rose a brow. "Then what do you suggest?" The door opened and Dabi entered, followed by Toga and Twice. Shigaraki sighed. "Leave it to us. We're regulars there. We buy the one's we can and then drop them at the station." Aizawa looked at him in surprise. "That was you? We had gotten reports, but no one knew who was behind it." Shigaraki stood from his seat. "We'll get her and your students back, but you need to stay here." Aizawa hesitated, but agreed. "...Fine. But (Y/n) better be safe."

Shigaraki turned to the rest of the league after shrugging on a red coat and fishing a hand out of his pocket. "We're doing another raid. If things go south, you know what to do." Dabi groaned in annoyance. "This is the3rd this week." Shigaraki ignored him. "We're going. Let's go." Aizawa, Mic, and Midnight watched them go in silence. Once the door shut and the footsteps faded, they slumped.

...

You could hear the girls quietly crying behind you as the blood pumped in your ears. Your tail was bloody and the bone poked outwards disgustingly. Your wrists and ankles had been rubbed raw by the rope tied tightly around them. The men had tied you up and took turns breaking each bone in your tail until all of them had been broken. Your tail throbbed with pain as you laid on the ground. The girls held Eri and Ren in their grip, shielding them from the sight. Mina's voice shook as she spoke. "W-What do we do...?" Momo put a hand on her shoulder. "I don't know..." You looked over at them. "I...I'll get you all out of here...Even if it kills me." They all fell silent. From your view on the floor, you could see Eri and Ren shaking. The girls had been chained by their ankles and the chain was attached to the nearby wall. 'I have to do something...but what...?' You still had the blade tucked away, but you wouldn't be able to fight anyone in your state.

You froze as footsteps echoed towards the door. The girls watched the door fearfully. Then, the door opened. Kaede entered the room. "Rise and shine! Your new owner should be here soon. And (Y/n), I have a special surprise for you." You winced as he dragged you up. He gripped your chin and looked at you. "What a shame...I was hoping that it wouldn't come to this, but it had to be done. I did some research into your kind and I found something rather interesting." You only stared at him. "..." You stood, glaring at him as he let go of your chin and started to circle you. "The animal mutation in you, whether it be canine, feline, amphibian, or anything else, has one common similarity: mates for life." You hissed. "You will never-" The girls yelped and protested as he slapped you harshly. Once you were silent, he continued. "Which means, for at least you and the frog girl, the first person you mate with will be the one you're stuck with. Your mate." You said nothing. Kaede continued. "And I want those ears and tail, but cutting them off is worthless. So your offspring is what I need."

He picked up a small bottle and a needle from the table and extracted the liquid into the needle. The girls started to scream and protest as he approached you. You felt defeated. You couldn't use your quirk, your claws were gone, and your tail was basically useless. Kaede grinned. "Unlike some of the others, you didn't go through heat. But this will fix you up real nice." In your state, you could only watch as he got closer and closer. You tried to struggle, but he only grabbed you and restrained you. "N-No..." You flinched harshly as the needle poked the skin of your neck. You felt weak as more of the liquid went into your body. Once it was all gone, he let you go and you collapsed to the ground. He placed the needle back on the table and left the room without another word. You could hear the girls, Eri, and Ren screaming your name, but they sounded so distant to you. You felt lightheaded and dizzy all at once.

'What's happening...?'

The room began to swim before your eyes and black spots began to invade your vision. You curled up as your stomach started to convulse with newfound pain. Eri whimpered. "W-What's happening to Ms. (Y/n)?" Mina hugged her, shielding her eyes. "I don't know, Eri." Momo's voice shook. "S-She'll be fine..." It was then that everything faded into darkness.

...

After a while of walking, the league found themselves in front of a warehouse on the outskirts of town. From inside, there were animalistic growls and screams. Shigaraki turned to the group. "She's in there somewhere." Dabi rose a brow. "Who?" Shigaraki sighed in annoyance. "Her name is (Y/n). She's a neko. They kidnapped her after she was saved." Toga squealed. "Ooh! Is she your crush?!" He shook his head. "No. But she's important to me so these idiots better have her in excellent condition." After explaining the plan to everyone else, Shigaraki headed towards the entrance and knocked on the door.

...

Aizawa sat at the bar, nursing a small bottle of whiskey he found behind the bar. He wasn't tipsy, but he had drank enough to calm his nerves. Midnight spoke, breaking the silence. "Are we sure we can trust them? I mean, why was (Y/n) even interacting with a villain anyways?" Aizawa shrugged. "From what my spy told me, (Y/n) apparently knows him very well." Mic rose a brow. "But how do we know she isn't working with him?" Aizawa placed the bottle on the bar and looked at the two. "She has no real reason. She didn't seem bitter or resentful towards the ring when we saved her. She's happy with her new life." Midnight tilted her head. "New life? She's still under the protection program, right?" Aizawa nodded. "Technically yes, but she was going to be released from it in 3 days with the option to remain on campus as a teacher."

Midnight smiled as she looked at him. "You're definitely in love with her! I can just tell!" He looked down. "..." Aizawa turned away from the two and picked up the whiskey bottle, taking a drink from it. He needed them to find her as soon as possible.

He wasn't about to let the world take awayanother person he cared about.
