Deku: The Feared Hero (Re-Worked)

Chapter 77

The streets of Japan laid barren, broken glass decorated the street along with ruminants of quirk usage that left the land scarred and fractured as grass and greenery grew from the breaks, making the city look like the over growth of vegetation after an apocalypse.

On the roof tops of one of the buildings, a girl sat on the ledge of a building as she held herself, looking down at the ground. Her eyes were slanted as they focused on the pavement, her heart pounding in her ears as she breathed slowly, thinking, wondering, pondering..

Dabi: "Toga," he said, " Come on, were going to be late." he sighed, watching as Toga slowly got up from the ledge.

She then let out a sigh before she turned to her white haired co worker. 

Toga: "Do you have to interrupt me every time?" she asked, cocking her head to the side. 

Dabi: "Shut up and come on." he said, "Shigaraki is waiting for us, the boss gave us a mission and we have to see it through."

Toga: ".. Izuku would've hated us for doing this." she said, walking past Dabi. 

Dabi: "Well, he's dead," he said, "Left us here to pick up after his scraps.. and there's nothing we can do about it now except go through everything and burn it down." 

Toga then let out a scoff. 

Toga: "Whatever, let's just get going." she said as she hopped onto the fire escape and hopped her way down, Dabi following close after.

Shigaraki: "I-I know it's just that I don't know how I c-can.." he trailed off, "It was so much easier before.. when someone died they.. it.. it never hurt this much a-and I'm trying to h-hold myself together b-but I-I just.." he tried to explain, his breath hitching as he tried to hold in his tears. Crying was unbecoming of a leader, and was a sign of weakness but he couldn't help himself. 

Nagant: "I know what you mean," she said, "Izuku was special to all of us.. he showed me how to live a life that wasn't rooted in blood.. he showed me love when others only saw me as a weapon.. if only I had continued to stick to that." 

Just then, the sound of a glass hitting the counter cleared some of the silence in the room. 

Oboro: "It's fine Nagant," he said, " I'm sure that he didn't expect any of this to happen. It was an.. unpredictable chain of events that lead us here." 

Nagant: "Still," she sighed, "I can feel how disappointed he would be.. to know the things I've done after he died.. I don't think he would ever forgive me."

The doors to the bar opened, Toga and Dabi walking through as Shigaraki quickly cleaned his face, and donned his hood to hide himself.

Dabi: "I got her," he said, "So, we heading out now?" 

Shigaraki: "We need to get the signal to go first." he said, "Just go rest up for a bit, Eri's in the kitchen and everyone one else in their rooms." 

Toga: "Thanks." she said before walking through the newly made arch way that lead up the stairs. Curtesy of one of Dabi's many out burst.

Oboro: "Another long chat on the roof tops?" he asked. 

Dabi: "I wasn't there long enough to listen," he said, "She was just looking at the street before I got her." 

Nagant: "That's not a good sign," she said, "I doubt she would do anything, but.." 

Dabi then let out a sigh. 

Dabi: "I'll keep an eye on her, I guess." he said. 

Nagant: "Thank you, Dabi." she said. 

Dabi: "Don't mention it," he said, "Oboro, give me a beer." he groaned as he sat at the counter.
