Chains of Insanity

Chapter 11

"You're in huge trouble, you know that?!" Aizawa yelled. Izuku rolled his eyes. He shrugged and the chains in his wrists clinked against the table.

"What in the world gave you the right to take this path!?" He received no response.

"Do you have no shame?! You would fight your classmates for your selfish reasons?! I am very disappointed!" Again, silence. Izuku spit in his face. Aizawa twitched and stood up, the chair screeching against the stone floor. He pinched his nose in between the corner of his eyes.

"We will keep you in confinement until we decide what to do with you. Don't get your hopes up. Whatever our solution is, you will participate. I'll see you in the morning." He stormed out of the room and slammed the metal door behind him.

He put his head down on the table. He coughed blood into his hands and it droplets dripped onto the table. He flicked it onto the ground. The door lightly swung open as Uraraka stepped in. Izuku's eyes widened. "You..." he muttered. Uraraka stared at the ground and then to the blood dripping out of his mouth.

"THIS IS YOUR FAULT!" He pulled against the chains attached to the table. "YOU'RE THE REASON IM HERE! YOU BETRAYED ME! YOU TRICKED ME INTO BELIEVING YOU WANTED TO JOIN ME! YOU TRICKED ME INTO THINKING YOU LOVED ME!" Uraraka kept her eyes on the ground.

"WAS IT EVEN REAL?! WAS WHAT WE HAD REAL OR WAD IT JUST A WAY TO GET ME LOCKED UP IN PRISON!? I REALIZED, YOU'RE JUST AS FAKE AS ANY OF THE OTHER HEROES!"

All Might walked in through the door. His skeletal form rendering him weak and vulnerable. All Might's eyes widened at the sight of Izuku. "Young Midoriya..." Izuku's eyes snapped to All Might, rage still lingering.

All Might rushed toward him. He smushed his cheeks and tilted his head side to side, inspecting. Izuku slapped his hand away.

All Might looked at the blood on his fingers and his eyes narrowed. "You can't keep doing this, my boy..." he started.

"One For All is crushing you from within. It wants its rightful owner, and frankly... it does not accept you as you are now. Not only One For All, but All For One and the other quirks you've obtained. It will slowly break you down from inside. You're sick, you need to write your wrongs and become who you really are. A hero." The atmosphere grew dense.

"Don't you think I know that? Do you think I want this? I can't go back with blood on my hands. I can't go back after all I've done. After Kira died I..." He stopped and his eyes, once filled with despair and filled with rage once again.

All Might sighed. "Uraraka come with me." Uraraka nodded. They stood and walked out the door. Uraraka glanced back, her face full of concern. The door shut behind them.

Bakugou twirled a pencil in his hand. When he lost focus the pencil dropped onto his desk and rolled onto the ground. He sighed and didn't even bother to pick it up. All Might burst through the door alongside Uraraka.

"Young Midoriya is safely under our control. He will be put in prison and therapy and will be released in due time."

"However his physical condition is critical."

"Critical?!" They all questioned. All Might nodded.

"My quirk is called One For All. It gives the user enhanced strength, speed, agility, etc. One For All is passed down from generation to generation. Each time the quirk grows stronger. On the other hand, there is a quirk called All For One. All For One allows the user to give and take quirks from others.
The original bearer of All For One was the man who forced me into retirement and killed Inko Midoriya. That man was Hisashi Midoriya. Izuku's father."

Bakugou flinched.

"You all probably know this, via Bakugou, but Midoriya for years was quirkless. He was attacked by the sludge villain. I fought the villain off and Midoriya had asked me a single question. He asked if he could be a hero without a quirk. Unfortunately, I blindly gave him an incorrect answer. I told him to be realistic. That it was impossible to become a hero without a quirk. When later Bakugou was attacked by the same sludge villain I had failed to capture correctly. Midoriya rushed in to save him while the pro heroes watched. Unfortunately, I was no exception.

"I am the eighth user of One For All, and Midoriya was made the ninth. However overpowered this quirk is, it has definite setbacks. It causes damage to the body if used extensively. To restrain this power, Midoriya has only been able to contain it to five to eight percent throughout his year at UA. Now with his newly improved build, strength, and pain resistance, he should now be able to use it at about fifty percent at the least. The limit to its growth, I do not know. This makes him an extreme threat and should be kept by all matters necessary from being used. However as the quirk grows stronger, the damage increases as well. Not only physically, but mentally.

"Now somehow, Midoriya has gained ownership of All For One along with countless others. How many I do not know. But what I do know is that the side affects will be and are immense. Midoriya is sick. One For All does not recognize Midoriya as worthy. The past generations are screaming at him, building up from within. I would imagine it would cause immense pain. Not only that but One For All and All For One are fighting for possession. They are natural enemies and I don't believe Midoriya, being their direct attention, can withstand it."

Momo raised her hand. "Sorry for interrupting, sir, but what would be the consequence?"

All Might looked at the ground for a long period of time. The second hand on the clock ticked in the lingering silence.

"As a result... Izuku's penalty will be death."
