Without You -BakuDeku Omegaverse

~THIRTY~

After everything from the sports festival and the choosing names, the students had their final exams for the semester before their annual summer training camp. The students were all excited, agreeing when Hagakure suggested they all go shopping to get new clothes and gear for the trip.

"Are you coming, Bakubro?" Kirishima asked, looking at the blond Alpha who had his arm slung around Midoriya's shoulders. 

"Nah. Too many people. Besides I got more than enough stuff at home"

"I need to go, I need to get a bigger suitcase," Midoriya said, sad that his boyfriend wouldn't be joining. 

"Awesome! Our trio is back together!" Kaminari cheered, wrapping his arms around Uraraka and Midoriya, effectively stealing the Omega from Bakugou. 

"Just don't be idiots. Shitty Hair, make sure you keep an eye on them. Are you going Half N' Half?"

"No, I've been visiting my mom on my days off from class, so I'll be with her" Todoroki sighed, knowing Bakugou would hate the lack of Alphas going. 

"I'll go. I need summer clothes anyway. I don't think I could wear hoodies in the heat" Shinsou said, standing beside Kaminari as he looked over the group. 

"Awesome! So the packs will be there aside from Bakugou and Todoroki. We got this you guys" Kaminari grinned, looking at Yaoyoruzu and Asui who nodded that they'd be coming as well. 

"We haven't done anything as an entire class before, this will be awesome," Hagakure cheered, everyone, planning for their mall trip the next day.

"You be safe, you hear me nerd. Text me while you're out," Bakugou said, pulling Midoriya away from Kaminari and back against him, scenting the male.

"I will be Kacchan, don't worry. We've got Shinsou and Kirishima coming as well as the betas in class. We'll be safe" Midoriya chuckled, scenting Bakugou back.

The next day, Midoriya and the others met at the mall, all talking about the different things they needed to get. They could hear people murmuring around them, talking about the Sports Festival. Midoriya heard several people talking about him and how strong he was as an Omega. The group slowly split up, going to their different places to get what they needed and Midoriya found himself alone. He wasn't sure how that happened, but he shrugged, beginning to walk towards a store that sold suitcases. 

"Oh, wow, a U.A. student! The Omega who made it past the first round, how exciting," Midoriya felt the hair on the back of his neck stand up moments before someone slung their arm around his shoulders. He growled lightly at the closeness of the male. "No need to get aggressive. I just wanna talk, though you haven't seen me since I attacked U.A." Midoriya stiffened at the information, finally shifting to look at who had his arm around him. Shigaraki, the leader of the rogue Alphas was grinning at him, slowly placing his hand around Midoriya's neck, claws unsheathed in warning. "If you want to leave here alive, without anyone else being harmed, I suggest you control your scent and don't cause a scene. We'll just look like two friends, catching up" Shigaraki led the pair to a fountain in the middle of the mall, sitting on its edge. Midoriya looked around, not seeing any of his classmates as the blue-haired Alpha tightened his grip around Midoriya's neck lightly. 

"Why are you doing this?" Midoriya asked, trying to keep his face neutral as he controlled his scent.

"Because I can. I just want to talk. You see, us 'rogue Alphas' as the media calls us, we care about one thing. The collapse of the Alphas who are high and mighty and in charge. The police force is full of them. And the government as well. And anyone who isn't seen as strong is cast aside. You could say that me and you want the same thing, huh little Omega?" Shigaraki hummed, knowing he was getting under Midoriya's skin. 

"Not at all. I want them to see that Omegas can be strong too. But I don't want to collapse the system. Just change it" Midoriya said, trying to remain calm, especially when Shigaraki sniffed him with a smirk. 

"You know, I know that Omegas can live just fine without an Alpha, and yet you surprise me, Midoriya. You reek of a certain caramel-scented Alpha. Why is that, I wonder?" Shigaraki hummed, his voice sounding amused as he tightened his grip on Midoriya's neck. "Last I heard, you two were 'just friends,'" he taunted, reminding Midoriya of what he had said to Kurogiri the last time the Omega had come face to face with the Alpha with the glowing necklace. 

"I really don't understand why you're bothering with me," Midoriya said, looking around as people walked around them, unaware of what was happening.

"Because of one person, Midoriya. All Might. That Omega is so high up on his pedestal that he couldn't possibly come down. He preaches about Omegas being so much more than society pegs them to be when he's a hypocrite. He has all these people thinking they're safe no matter what their sub-gender is. He isn't even a true Omega," Shigaraki laughed, tightening his grip further, making it more difficult for Midoriya to breathe. The Omega lifted his hands to try to pry the Alpha's hand off. "Don't do that little Omega. One flinch from my hand, and you'd be bleeding out all over the floor. And then I think I could wipe out 20 or 30 of these sheep before anyone from the police force showed up" Shigaraki laughed again, like this was a game to him. Midoriya struggled to breathe, tears started to prick at his eyes as he struggled to control his pheromones as well. 

"Deku?" Uraraka's timid voice echoed in Midoriya's ears as he opened his eyes to look at her. He stared for a moment before answering. 

"Don't come any closer, everything is fine!" He smiled, frantically waving before Shigaraki released him, the Omega coughing and catching his breath.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here with friends, I gotta get going now, it was great catching up Midoriya," Shigaraki stood up, walking away as Uraraka ran to Midoriya's side. 

"Wait, Shigaraki!" Midoriya coughed out, causing the blue-haired male to pause. "Why are you after Bakugou?"

"Who knows," Shigaraki played off the question, keeping his back to the pair of Omegas. "But word of advice for you little Omega. The next time we meet, I'll likely have to kill you," He hummed excitedly before disappearing into the crowd.

"Oh my god" Uraraka cried out, frantically checking over Midoriya as distress pheromones leaked around them. 

"Go tell the police force. But calm down. You're scaring people," Midoriya coughed, sending Uraraka away from him as he processed what happened. He rubbed his neck, thinking about the things that Shigaraki had said to him. 

Midoriya could smell worried pheromones starting to build around him as his classmates got closer and the police force began shutting down the mall, searching for the rouge Alpha with no luck. He didn't even get a chance to talk to Kirishima or Shinsou to tell them he was fine before he was shipped to the police station to report on Shigaraki. He hadn't been able to text Bakugou either, and it was starting to get dark. Midoriya told the police everything he could, including what Shigaraki told him, and what the male looked like up close. He was thanked for his time and walked out of the station so he could go home, greeted by his mother and Bakugou. 

"Izuku," Inko cried slightly, wrapping her arms around her son tightly. "I'm so glad you're safe," She said, pulling him towards Bakugou and towards Mitsuki's car that sat in the parking lot. 

"I'm okay, Mom. I promise. He didn't hurt me," Midoriya assured his mother, trying to ignore the annoyed scent that Bakugou was putting off. Midoriya hadn't been able to text the blond since he first arrived at the mall, and that had been hours ago. He huffed when Inko let him go, only to be held in Bakugou's arms as he was pulled into the backseat of the car, Mitsuki driving them all to Bakugou's house for the night. Midoriya knew that he wasn't going to be let out of the blond's or his mother's sight for a while.
