Izuku had lived in the darkness for four years, four years after he was declared quirkless. what happens when a hobo hero and a beefed up hero stumble upon the place he's held captive, being tortured day in and day out?
Obviously, they will try to...
I think she’s snuffed out everything. I no longer feel pain, or hurt, or the urge to cry, or laugh, or smile. I feel like an empty vessel. Inko drags me by the hair into the lounge area of the League. She smiles gleefully at seeing my vacant face as she throws me onto the floor in front of the TV mounted on the wall that shows the heroes at a press conference. They forcefully sit me up on my knees and make me watch. “Principal Nezu! What do you have to say about the recent villain attacks on UA?” a reporter asks. “It is to my regret that we were not able to stop these attacks but we have assured our students they are safe and will continue to learn under the guidance and protection of the UA teachers,” Nezu answers. “Aww! Izuku, it seems the heroes forgot about you!” Inko tries to gain a reaction out of me but she’s already beat it out of me. “What about the student that was kidnapped? How is that safe?!” another reporter questions. At that, Mr. Aizawa stands up and says, “We are doing everything in our power to rescue that student as we speak. It was my fault that led to my student’s capture. I would like to make a formal apology for my shortcomings.” Mr. Aizawa bows to the crowd. The rest of the conference is drowned out by the League’s distasteful comments and mocking laughter about the heroes. I guess Inko didn’t like my emotionless reaction to the conference, because she all of a sudden starts to get violent and beats me into the ground while the League watches in amusement. After a few minutes, a knock sounds from the door. I don’t pay it any attention; I wish I did. The heroes burst into the League’s hideout and in a matter of seconds, the entire League and Inko are detained. I faintly hear someone say my name as I’m picked up. They keep calling my name and telling me to hang on. It’s followed by Inko's cackle as she says that I deserved it. The voice comes into focus and I realize it’s All Might’s voice. I start to gain focus and find I’m laying limp halfway on the floor as All Might lifts my back off with his arm as he checks me over. “Heyyy…” I slowly and deliriously say. “Young Midoriya… I’m sorry we didn’t get here earlier,” All Might trembles as he looks at my wounds. “Ahh… It’s no problem All Might… I never expected to make it out of here anyway…” I confess. All Might’s jaw tightens, “don’t say that young Midoriya.” “Ha… All Might… please don’t… ha… call me that…” I struggle to breathe. “Alright. In turn, you have to stay alive. Okay?” All Might seems like he’s going to break down. I hum and slowly drag my wrist up and plop it on my chest, exposing the quirk restraints. All Might immediately but carefully removes the restraints from my wrists and then my ankles. All Might urges me to heal myself. I try to muster up the strength but nothing comes. I fall limp again as a dizzy wave crashes over me. I faintly hear All Might’s worrying voice. Then, in my stupor, I feel myself become suffocated and pass out just as I hear the hero’s screams. I wake up to Inko dragging me towards All For One. My head is clearer after resting for a moment. I start to struggle as much as I can, which isn’t much. Inko throws me at All For One’s feet just as All Might and Lemillion arrive (I made sure to find out his hero name at least; he did save me that one time). I listen as All For One taunts All Might, “All Might! How wonderful of you to join us! Excellent! By this evening, I’ll have killed both you and the ninth!” I can’t pay attention to their conversation because Inko has picked me up again and is dragging me towards the League. No! This is my chance! If I don’t escape the League now, then I will never get another chance. The next escape attempt I’ll get is death! All For One tells Shigaraki and the League to leave and has Kurogiri open a portal. Inko starts dragging me again. I feel a rare surge of anger. I thought Inko and the League snuffed out all emotions. Looks like they failed in that regard. Why is it that someone is always abusing me, torturing me, kidnapping me, grabbing me by the neck, or dragging me by the hair?! Why must I always be tossed around like some toy for someone else's sick pleasure?!

I can’t take it anymore! I don’t want to be weak anymore! In my anger, I start to fight and struggle and flail and scream. I see All For One and All Might battling nearby. If All Might can go on, then so can I! Just as I’m about to be pulled through the portal, a hand grabs me and pulls me out. The portal shuts. I sit on the debris ridden ground as I try to catch my breath. Arms start to slowly encircle around me and pick me up. Then a boom sounds throughout the devastation. I jerk my head in the direction of AFO and All Might’s fight to see All Might on the ground in another form while AFO stands over him. I don’t hear what All For One tells All Might but I can tell it isn’t good when All Might’s smile falls. Even when he was looking over my injuries, All Might didn’t lose his smile. What did All For One say to make All Might lose his smile? Did he tell him that he’s my father!? Suddenly, there is chanting for All Might coming from all around us. They chant and call out to All Might to get back up and to keep fighting. Just when All Might is almost up, All For One tries to land a blow. I don’t even feel it as Lemillion gently sets me down and darts from my side and blocks All For One’s blow. I watch as Lemillion and All For One battle and it becomes apparent that Lemillion is at a disadvantage. I try to stand up and fall over. I tried again. I tried again. And again. Again. Again. I eventually stand up but it’s right as All For One has Lemillion cornered to the ground and is about to deliver a deadly blow. I don’t think; I just do. Before I know what I’ve done, my hand has pierced through All For One’s chest.
