Experiment Gone Wrong [Book 1 Completed]

We're Back~

Wind blew through the air silently as chatter flooded out of Aldeka Junior, the student's walking out in large groups. Izuku waited by his locker for his new friends, humming to himself as a small smile graced his face.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting!" Hiyori called out as she, Yukine and Katsuki came to a halt in front of the greenette.

"It's fine. Tachibana and Otonashi went on ahead," Izuku said, pulling on his bag straps as he stood up straight. "Let's go!"

The group of 4 left the school, chatting with each other besides one scowling blond. They walked down the street's cobble pathway, deciding to head to a nearby café, 'Oliver Green'. They found a table, sitting down and looking through the menu's.

"Hey Midoriya," Yukine started, gaining the attention of the greenette. "I've been meaning to ask this, but, what's with the scars?"

"U-uhh..." Izuku scratched his cheek, a look of distort forming on his face as he looked down. "I... I don't r-really like talking a-about it."

"Sorry. I didn't mean to bring back bad memories." Yukine said.

A waiter came over, taking the students orders before walking off. They engaged in small talk, Katsuki opening up a bit, though still wearing the permanent scowl on his face. Their orders came and the conversation faded out, comments here and there. Izuku pushed his glasses up, thoughts racing through his mind of memories back at the villains base. The beatings, chemicals, screams of agony filling the toxic air, being trapped in the basement. His heart sped up as he tried to control his breathing as to not alarm his friends.

"Oi Deku. The fuck's up with you?" Katsuki whispered, concern lacing his words as he nudged the greenette. "You're shaking."

"O-oh, am I? I-I'm fine, really." Izuku forced a smile on his face, though Katsuki didn't seem convinced.

He didn't press any further, instead he shoved his food into Izuku's mouth. Izuku didn't protest, instead, accepting the food, knowing that the blond wasn't good at expressing his feelings well. They finished their food and drinks before paying and leaving the café. They headed down the street, chatting happily before Izuku stopped in his tracks, turning his head to an alleyway.

"Deku/Midoriya?" His friends questioned, seeing the emotionless expression on the greenette's face as he stared into the darkness.

"I̶z̶u̶k̶u̶~"

Snap out of it! There's no one there.

"C̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶e̶~"

Don't listen. Just turn away.

"W̶e̶'̶r̶e̶ ̶w̶a̶i̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶~

W̶e̶ ̶n̶e̶e̶d̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶f̶i̶n̶i̶s̶h̶ ̶w̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶w̶e̶ ̶s̶t̶a̶r̶t̶e̶d̶~"

Izuku!

"Deku!" Izuku snapped out of it, turning to Katsuki who was right in his face. "The fuck's wrong with you? There's nothing down there."

"S-sorry. I thought I heard something." Izuku said, scratching his neck with a sheepish grin.

"Jeez. Damn nerd. Let's just fucking go." Katsuki sighed in annoyance as he grabbed Izuku's hand, pulling him along.

"W̶h̶e̶r̶e̶ ̶a̶r̶e̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶g̶o̶i̶n̶g̶?̶ ̶D̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶w̶a̶n̶n̶a̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶s̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶f̶u̶n̶~"

Izuku glanced back, confusion in his eyes before shrugging it off, pushing the voice's comments to the back of his head. He heard Deku sigh in relief before he flopped on the mint green lounge. They caught the train and headed home, going their separate ways. Katsuki stuck with Izuku the whole way to his house, keeping a tight grip on his hand. They came to a halt outside Izuku's house, the blond turning to Izuku and gripping his shoulders, red eyes gazing into green and golden ones.

"Are you alright? You've been acting fucking weird since we left school. What. The. Fuck. Is. Wrong?" Katsuki demanded, his eyes burning into Izuku's.

"..." Izuku looked away, Katsuki grabbing his face and forcing him to face him. "F-fine! It's just... when Yukine asked about my scars, some memories came back."

"You said something about hearing something or shit."

"I-I thought I heard o-one of the villains in t-the alleyway."

"O̶h̶,̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶d̶i̶d̶~"

Izuku swung his head round, eyes wide in fear as they searched the neighbourhood. No traces of where the voice came from. In his shaken state, he pulled Katsuki into a tight hug, pushing his face into the blonds chest.

"I-its here a-again. I-I don't know w-what to d-do." He stuttered, feeling tears pricking his eyes.

"Don't fucking cry. I doubt there's anyone out ther-"

"W̶h̶y̶ ̶d̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶s̶h̶u̶t̶ ̶u̶p̶ ̶a̶l̶r̶e̶a̶d̶y̶!"

Katsuki froze, feeling a shiver crawl down his spine as the cold wind blew around the duo. He clutched onto the shaking greenette protectively, looking around frantically.

"Who the fuck are you?!" He yelled out, setting off small explosions in his hands.

"Y̶o̶u̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶c̶a̶l̶l̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶S̶h̶i̶g̶i̶r̶a̶k̶i̶,̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶,̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶'̶s̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶i̶m̶p̶o̶r̶t̶a̶n̶t̶.̶ ̶I̶'̶m̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶c̶o̶l̶l̶e̶c̶t̶ ̶w̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶w̶e̶ ̶l̶o̶s̶t̶."

Izuku's breath hitched, hearing their name. Deku kept ushering reassuring words to the greenette who closed his eyes tightly.

"J̶u̶s̶t̶ ̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶I̶z̶u̶k̶u̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶I̶'̶l̶l̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶o̶n̶ ̶m̶y̶ ̶w̶a̶y̶,̶ ̶n̶o̶ ̶f̶i̶g̶h̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶n̶e̶e̶d̶e̶d̶."

"No way in hell you bastard! I'm not letting you torture him again!" Katsuki yelled.

"T̶h̶e̶n̶ ̶I̶ ̶g̶u̶e̶s̶s̶ ̶w̶e̶'̶l̶l̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶d̶o̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶b̶y̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶c̶e̶."

A purple portal appeared further down the street, illuminated by a street lamp as a figure covered in dismembered hands stepped out. A mist guy followed, as well as a giant bird like monster with an exposed brain. The handy man started scratching at his neck, blood red eyes staring out from the hand covering his face at the two kids huddled together. Izuku froze, staring wide eyed at the three villains just meters away from him and Katsuki.

"Now that you've showed yourselves, I'm gonna kick your asses." Katsuki smirked, letting go of Izuku who hid behind him as he punched his hands together, explosions sprouting out.

"Noumu. Take care of this kid. We only need the green one." Handy man ordered, watching the bird launch itself forwards.

"Kacchan, dodge!" Izuku exclaimed, gripping onto the blonds uniform as he blasted to the side. "You can't kill it. It's too strong! Just go for Shigiraki. The one covered in hands."

"Tch, fine. Just hide inside. Call the police or some shit." Katsuki said, pushing him inside before blasting over to the two other villains, dodging the noumu as it launched at him again.
