Heal Our Past, Change Our Future

Chapter XVI

It wasn't supposed to end like this. He hadn't wanted this. He wanted to forget his past, he wanted to forget everything and start over, with a new name, new people, and maybe one day, a new home.

But here he was, face to face with his past.

And he could feel the hatred radiate off of them in waves.

Both of the Alphas were now in the main area of the bar, out of the dark room. The entire group surrounded them, though Kirishima had been put in a muzzle, taking account of how he nearly took off one of Twice's fingers when the man had tried to drag him out of the dark room, still bound in chains.

Now a pair of scarlet and crimson eyes scowled and glared into the eyes of anyone who looked at them. And Izuku couldn't bring himself to look at either of them.

"The fuck are you bastards supposed to be?!" Bakugou growled, glaring heavily at Shigaraki who sat at the bar.

"We're the League of Villains. Join us. You can even bring your little dog if you want." Shigaraki offered immediately, lazily pointing at Kirishima. Though he only was given a pair of growls as a response, Kirishima's sounded more feral behind the muzzle.

(Shit! I forgot about that part!) Izuku cursed to himself, turning his head to look at the two Alphas from where he stood in the corner, back turned to everyone except for Kurogiri who stood behind the bar.

"You idiots must have some sort of brain damage if you think that we'll ever join you!" Bakugou barked, baring his teeth at the villains while Izuku hid his sigh of relief at the answer.

Shigaraki got bored of things that didn't go his way, he would let go of this, and the heroes would rescue Kirishima and Bakugou. Then he could return to his headspace, he could return to his venture on forgetting.

"Perhaps they just need a bit of convincing. Bring the loud one to me, Tomura." A staticky voice came from the TV, and Izuku felt his blood run cold. Though Bakugou only snarled while Kirishima growled again.

"Yes, Master. Tenshi, bring our guest to Master, leave the dog with us." Shigaraki ordered as he lazily pointed to Izuku and then to Bakugou. The blonde Alpha snarled at Izuku while the greenette did his best to not show how it made him want to cower away from both of the chained-up boys.

As Izuku approached, Bakugou only snarled louder while Kirishima growled savagely, struggling in the chains that kept him to the wall. Izuku did his best to hide his shudder as he used the vine that was wrapped around his arm to grab the chair Bakugou was strapped to and pull it with him as Kurogiri opened a portal for him.

Though despite his better judgment, he looked behind him. Only to see the betrayed, rageful, and horrified look in Kirishima's eyes, and when he looked over his shoulder, he saw the way the blonde looked between him and Kirishima. Hatred, rage, and worry flashed in his gaze as he looked between the two.

Izuku looked to his feet as he stepped through the portal, it closed behind him as his vine maneuvered Bakugou in front of him. And the slow echoing footsteps rang in his ears as he looked up, praying his mask didn't somehow become transparent and reveal himself.

"Tenshi, my dear. Thank you." All for One smiled as he came upon the two, though Izuku didn't answer, his chest ached too painfully for him to speak, and the fear that became apparent in the blonde's gaze was enough to seal his throat shut.

But when a hand placed itself on the side of his face, pressing against his mask, the boy held back a gasp as he bowed low to the man. The villain only hummed to the action, turning to Bakugou, who tried to keep up his brave and angry front, though his façade was easily seen through.
