Him Again (Bakugou Katsuki x Reader)

71. Marlo's?

You tossed and turned in your sheets. All you could do was picture his face. Stupor. You couldn't stop thinking about what Inasa had said. And you couldn't stop Katsuki's voice from ringing in your ears.

You scrambled to your feet and glanced at the wallclock. It was 1:30 am. You knew you shouldn't have but you hastily slipped on a hoodie and walked straight out of your room and right out of the massive UA gates without glancing back a single time.

You were out of breath by the time you got there. Marlo's...... But nobody was there. You waited for a while until you finally sighed and gave up. Of course Inasa had been lying. You let out a bitter laugh. Why would you ever believe he was associated with villains?

You were about to walk back until something caught your eye. The familiar crimson 'Marlo's' banner flashed. It was 2 am. Why would anyone turn on the lights?

You peered into the restaurant. You saw five figures. Inasa was one of them and.... Your heart jumped. It was Stupor with Shigaraki and Dabi on either side of him. You scurried and ducked under the window. You could hear voices.

"You fucked it all up!" You heard Dabi roar. "You weren't supposed to be there god damnit!"
"Mind your own fucking business, Dabi." Said a cold voice. Chills ran down your spine. Stupor.

"You got that UA kid shot, Stupor." Shigaraki said. "The attack on USJ, the incident at Kamino, joining forces with Overhaul and now this. Dabi's right. You're putting a target on our back."

Silence followed. Suddenly, it all went dark. The Marlo's sign went out, the light bulbs inside shattered and even the street lights across the street began to flicker.

"What exactly are you implying, Tomura?" Stupor said in a deadly calm voice. "Are you saying you're doubting me?"

For the first time, you heard fear in Shigaraki's voice. "N-No, Stupor. I'm not trying to say that. Y-Your right. I shouldn't have doubted you." He said.

"I am!" You heard Dabi yell. "That's exactly what I'm trying to say! You're a selfish fucking bastard that can't see anything other than his own goals. If you're so obsessed with murdering your sister, go do it on your own time! We almost had pro hero Hawks. You let him go."

Just then you jumped up in fear. There was a loud bang on the glass behind you. You had to clap a hand over your mouth to stop yourself from screaming. Then, you heard another voice. "H-Hey. How about you all break it up now. Stop breaking all my utensils!...Please...?"

Your blood ran cold. It was your boss from Marlo's. What the hell was he doing there?  "Y-Yeah. He's right." Another voice added nervously. Inasa. You gathered up the courage to get on your knees and peep into the window slightly. "W-we should plan out our next few ste-" Stupor shut him up with a glare.

"H-Hey, come on, Stupor.... I have school tomo-" All of a sudden Stupor's head snapped in your direction and made direct eye contact with you. Your heart stopped. You had been spotted.

You quickly scrambled to your feet and began making a run for it. But you knew it was useless. Within a matter of seconds, you ran into something. A white figure. It gripped your arms and roughly dragged you inside the restaurant.

You made contact with the cold hard floor. "Y/N, Y/N, Y/N. What a surprise!" Stupor smirked maniacally as he strolled towards you. "Let me go!" You said.

"Let me think....." He pretended to scratch his head. "No." He said. Shigaraki was staring at you, flabbergasted. "Wh-What? How did she-"

"Isn't it obvious? Dabi said. "It was him. He led her to us." He motioned towards Inasa who was glaring daggers into your soul. "N-No! No no it wasn't me! Why would I sell you out? I would ne-"
Stupor groaned. "Hate to see you go, Inasa." He said. "No! I swear I didn't-"

"You heard him!" Shigaraki said. "Get out of here." Inasa looked like he wanted to argue but began walking out of Marlo's. "You had a great quirk. Just like Y/N's. Such a loss of talent. Nonetheless, your life wasn't a complete waste."

Inasa stopped in his tracks. "W-What do you mean was....?" he croaked and your boss briskly walked towards him and pulled out a sword. As quickly as he had unsheathed it, he clicked it back into its scabbard. Within a matter of seconds, Inasa's head fell straight off his neck. It bounced a little and rolled off to the side.

Inasa was dead. He was gone. Just like that. "Now what do we do with you?" Your boss said as he walked towards you. He grabbed your face and pulled it towards his. "No tears for your little friend there? He's dead, you know. Never coming back."

But you didn't react. For some reason you couldn't feel anything for him. You just simply didn't care. "No? Nothing? Not a tear to shed for his death?"

You shook your head. All of a sudden, Stupor burst into psychotic laughter and Shigaraki joined it. "Wow. And here I was, doubting whether she was actually your sister!" Shigaraki snickered. "But look at her! She's just like you, Stupor!"

Your boss cackled too. "Who would've thought she was like this! Always sticking to those disgusting heroes she brings in here." He said and took your arm and helped you up to your feet.

Just then, someone walked in, giggling from behind you. "Ooh! What fun did i miss out on?" She said when she spotted you. It was a girl's voice but you couldn't see her recognise the voice. "Not much. Y/N here will be joining us." Stupor stated. "Willingly or unwillingly." He said and you glared at him.

Shigaraki spoke. "Don't make that face. You would make it so much easier if you just willingly came. Or joined us! She'd be a great addition. Don't you think, Marlo?" He said.
"Wait what?" You said. "Marlo? That's your real name? Marlo's your name? God, that's sad."

Marlo glared at you, the same way he'd done many times before. "Shut your trap you little-!"
The unknown villain behind you burst into laughter. "Wow! I like her!" She giggled. "Can we keep her, Stupor? Please please, pretty pleaseee?"

"For god's sake, Roscoe, shut up! We're running late. Lets leave. Tie her up for good measure, Marlo." Shigaraki said.
"No way!" The villain, Roscoe whined as she made her way towards you. "Shes my new friend! You can't tie her up! She needs to understand that we trust her if she's going to be joining us!"

You could finally see her face now. Your eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. It was the girl. The salmon haired one who Katsuki was with.

"Fine." Stupor finally spoke. "She can join us if she wants to. If not.... Then well, she can join Yoarashi on the floor there." He pointed towards the severed head near the stairs.

Roscoe yelped and stepped away from it. "OH MY GOD! What the hell is that?" She exclaimed. "Oh no...." She said, half heartedly when she noticed that it was Inasa. "He was such a fun play thing." She sighed but changed her demeanor within a matter of seconds. "But its all right!" She said with a big smirk on her face and looked at you. "We've got a replacement!"

"I....I'll join you!" You said. "Oh?" Stupor raised an eyebrow at you. They all eyed you with some kind of psychopathic ecstasy. This was going to be a hell of a ride.
