Are You Crying, Too?

Traitor

Time seemed to rush by quickly.  I don't know how long I've been here, and I don't really want to know.  I fear that I'll go insane if I keep track.

During the duration of my training, my muscles have developed almost as much as before.  I can run for a longer period of time with faster speed than I used to.  I also gained even more control of One for All.  Phthonus worked hard to train me so that I could become the best villain out there.  He forced me to go pass my limits every time I trained.  I've sprained my ankle and wrists more times than I could count, and had broken more of my bones than I did when I first got One for All.  The training I was put through was tough, but it didn't hurt as much as it would if I had trained like this before.  The torture I had gone through made my pain tolerance fly through the roof.  

I didn't do much besides train and hang around Phthonus.  I haven't seen Kira come around much.  The only time I did was when Phthonus called him over to heal my wounds.  I've noticed that Kira glares at me whenever he sees me, and that made me assume that he loathed me for whatever reason.  Phthonus always keeps an eye on Kira, as if he was just waiting for Kira to betray him.  This made me wonder what Phthonus's past was.  What made him the way he was?
"It doesn't matter.  I want him dead," I heard Phthonus say.  He sounded mad.

" But-...  I don't think it's a good idea.  We don't know if he as allies.  Besides, we still owe him a favor because he gave us information on Deku." Kira tried to convince Phthonus to change his wish.  Phthonus just ignored him as he looked at my form.  I was sitting on the dinning room table with my back slouched over it.  My right arm was stretched to the other side of the table while my left arm was grabbing my left arms elbow.  My head rested sideways on my bent arm and was looking at the front door that the two just came through.

"Hey, Izuku," Phthonus smiled happily, his previous anger now gone.  I smiled back at him as I sat up and stretched my arms and yawned.  

"Hey," I stood up.  This was my daily routine.  I would train in the morning and then have breakfast.  Then, Phthonus would leave the house for a little for whatever reason.  Sometimes he came back with Kira, usually so he could heal me.  After that, we usually hung out together.
Phthonus nodded to Kira to signal him to go elsewhere.  

Kira left to the living room after saying, " Whatever.  Have fun with Stockholm syndrome, Phthonus. "

"Izuku?" Phthonus watched Kira leave as he began his question, "I'm afraid that were going to have to move our base to somewhere else.  Izaya told Bakugou about our location."

I nodded as I hugged him, searching for warmth that the house was to selfish give up.  Phthonus hugged me back.  I thought about his words. Izaya was a wanted criminal, I knew that, but who was Bakugou?  His name sounded... Familiar.

"I already have the place ready for us.  It's got a better training room than this one, so you can get stronger." I cringed.  I didn't really want to train like this anymore.  Phthonus called Kira over and gave me a large dark red jacket.  When I put it on, he pulled the hood over my head.

"Make sure no one but me and Kira see your face while were outside." I nodded as I pulled the hood down farther than it would stay, causing it to bounce back up.  Phthonus opened the door, allowing me to go outside for the first time in what felt like forever.

The sun was covered by clouds.  It was lightly sprinkling.  Once I was fully outside, I stretched my arms out and spun around in a circle while laughing.  I didn't really like rain, but it felt good to finally be outside.

"Stay by my side, Izuku," Phthonus ordered.  I stopped circling and bounced next to him, a wide grin evident on my face.  We then started walking to our new home.

We had to ride a couple of trains before we reached walking distance from the place.  I accidentally fell asleep on Phthonus's shoulder on the way, but the train stopping made me wake up.

Rain was now pouring down heavily.  It thwaked onto the sidewalks loudly before jumping up and dropping once again.  I found the process to be extremely intriguing.  It was all I watched while we walked.

"Kira..." Phthonus moved to whisper in Kira's ear.  I was to enraptured by the rain to notice. I was finally broken from my trance when I heard my hero name pop up in someone else's conversation.

"Don't you think that Deku is a little...  Too old to be crushing on?" A teenage girl asked her little sister, who looked to be about seven.

"Nu-uh.  He's a child like me!" I looked at the child, a wild blush appearing on my cheeks.  Did people really think like that about me?  But- she's just a child!

"You do know he's not alive anymore, right?" The little girl stubbornly shook her head.

" No!  He's just missing!  And when I find him, I'm gonna ask him to marry me! " The teenage girl sighed, exasperated.  The little girl looked at me before waving at me excitedly.  I waved back while I giggled.  They were adorable.  

A wind tried to pull the jackets hood off of me, but I caught it just in time.  I looked at Phthonus and Kira, both of whom were still conversing, and then looked around me.  The world didn't seem like it changed at all while I was gone.  It was all still the same.  I missed the peace and chaos of the world.  I tried to remember everything I saw.  I didn't think another chance like this would arise for awhile.  Bakugou...  Thank you for making this happen.

The house wasn't a house.  It was a mansion.  Two large gates lead to the front garden.  The garden was full of colorful flowers and neatly trimmed bushes.  The mansion itself was a plain-looking white with a dark gray tiled roof and plenty  of windows.  The front doors of the mansion were larger than I thought necessary.  They were almost as large as the doors that lead to the classes in U.A.  

Phthonus entered the place as if he had lived there his whole life.  He walked through the corridors in a hurry, making me fast-walk beside him.  I looked around the mansion in aww.  I had never been in a place like it before.

The three of us reached another large door when Phthonus finally stopped.

"Izuku," he looked at my green orbs, " I want you to meet the person that you will be staying with. " He opened the door to reveal someone I didn't expect. 

A lone adult at the age of 24 sat lazily on a couch in comfortable clothing.  His red hair was spiked as always, each strand seeming to have millions of particles of hair jell stuck to it.  A small scar from when he first discovered his quirk rested from his cheek to above his eyebrow.  His eyes were just a smidge darker than that of a red rose, and his body was covered from head to toe in muscles that had been accumulated over years of hard work.  A sharp set of teeth showed as he smiled at me.

"Good to see you, Midoriya!"  I just stood there, stock still.  What was I supposed to say?  He was an old classmate of mine...  Someone who I now knew helped a villain house a captive.  That villain being Phthonus...  And that captive being me.  All I ended up doing was spouting his last name,

"Kirishima!?"
