Mending What Broke: Todoroki Shoto x Reader

Control

-Gina's POV-

"I'm going out,"

Walking across the living room past her Mother and older Brother, Gina went to her home entrance, placing on her shoes as her family gave her a questioning look. The girl's shaking hands not going unnoticed by her Mother.

"It's almost time for din-"

"Not hungry," Gina was quick to shoot her Mothers words down. Her mind already trying its hardest to concentrate on her task at hand.

"What's with the bitchy attitude?" Her brother questioned, only to be left unanswered as the front door to their home quickly opened and closed, letting the Teen out of earshot from her family.

Walking away from her home, the young brunette cleared her throat, trying her best to clear away the lump in her throat her nerves were creating.

'You need to tell someone. You moron, did you not notice how hurt mom looked? You know shes leaving again soon,'

The girl's thoughts went wild, clouding with doubt and anxiety as she turned into the littered alley that she's come accustomed to throughout her year at UA.

Stopping near a pile of old pallet boards, Gina leaned down pushing the wooden structure away from the stone wall of the abandoned strip mall. An aluminum soda can caught her attention, her shaky, pale hand picking it up easily, letting the palet fall back on the wall with a light thump.

Gina's thumb rubbed against the side of the can, her body hesitating, trying to enjoy this, now rare, moment of ease. Sighing the girl stood from her crouched position, her neck bending her head up to the roof of the mall, her hand reeling back and tossing the empty bottle onto the roof. Not a moment later did a portal appear in front of her, Kurogiri appearing in front of her.

No words were spoken between the two as the younger girl walked through the gate, her surroundings changing from the alleyway into the hideout of the Leauge.

A man with pale blue hair was quick to notice the girl's presence as he carried himself off of the barstool he had perched himself on and made his way to the quiet girl. Her nerves spiked as the gate behind her closed and the man grew closer to her.

"You're finally here. Took you long enough," His voice broke the silence as he looked the girl up and down, taking note of her appearance, only to groan and scratch at his neck, drawing a light amount of blood. "You know the drill kid,"

Gina hesitated, nodding her head and taking an uneasy step to the chair centered in the hideout. The leather straps attached to it mocking her presence as she sat down onto its wooden surface, Kurogiri binding her wrists to the arms of the chair as well as her ankles to the legs, a precaution that was always taken during one of their tests on the girl.

Taking a shaky breath, Gina ignored the noise of Shigaraki walking towards her, the rattling of the case that he carried hinting at what was to come.

Setting the container on the floor next to the girl's bounded feet, the snaps of the locks being opened echoed in the girl's ears as her heart dropped into her stomach. Glancing down worriedly at the case, Gina's eyes caught a familiar object. A needle.

Her hands began to visibly shake, her fists quick to tighten to stop it, her nails digging into her palms.

Standing from his crouched position, Shigaraki inched closer to the girl's wrist, syringe carefully in hand, his ring and pointer finger careful not to touch the object. The substance inside seems to be hidden, but from the look of the first squeeze, the liquid seemed to be a dark grey.

Taking the needle, the older man hovered the needle above the girl's veins, forcing the sharp object into her wrist causing her to hiss in pain, gritting her teeth as the foreign substance was placed into her bloodstream.

Shigaraki emptied the last bit of liquid into the girl's body, taking a step back as her body tensed. The fluid seeming to burn her inside and out.

"This one is different from the last one we gave you. The one we gave you before amplified your quirk and your reaction time. This one is newer. It travels throughout your entire system searching for what makes you tick. What makes you go nuts. Makes you lose touch with reality."

Her eyes were slammed shut, tears threatening to spill from her eyes as she whined in pain. Her entire body began to tremor as the liquid took its corse throughout her bloodstream. Her heart thumped inside her chest rapidly. Her head ached in pain as she broke out into a sweat.

"It's like a virus."

Suddenly Gina's lungs stopped, her body gasped for air, as her eyes shot open, the whites around her eyes turning into a pale purple as her pupil grew into a bright yellow. The chair the girl sat on trembled as her body shook in pain, her breathing coming back to her in quick second only to stop again.

Her lungs burned, her whole body seemed to be on fire. Her skin crawled. Her head was pounding. Her vision was wavering in and out of focus.

"It goes inside and finds the weak spots,"

The young girl let out a violent scream, her quirk activating on its own as her fists turning into stone before the quirk quickly deactivated itself.

"It eats away anything it finds"

'What the hell is happening!?'

Gina's eyes slammed shut as her body suddenly stopped. She slumped down in the chair, her head hung low. The pain stopped but her body ached. Her mind went blank. Her thoughts died and her sight went black.

"It takes away everything good.... and turns brings out the bad,"

Shigaraki smiled, seeing the girl defeated. 

"Yakatama," His voice was firm, causing the girl's ears to perk up.

Her head rose to face the pale man. 

'I didn't do that,' she thought as she laid her off-colored eyes on the man in front of her.

The girl growled under her breath.

'What the hell did you do to me!?' She yelled but was taken aback as no one answered her.

'I'm sick of your guy's shit! Why the hell is UA so important to you guys! We're all just kids!' Again no answer.

"Break the straps." Shigaraki finally made his voice heard. His smirk growing bigger.

'You don't think I tried that dumb as-'

"Yes, Shigaraki"

Gina froze. That was her voice...how? she was already talking.

Gina's quirk activated on its own once again. The action was forced and snapped the leather straps of the chair instantly.

'That wasn't me! This isn't me!'

Gina's body stood up from the splintered chair, her feet planted onto the floor unmoving.

"Go look at the new you," Shigaraki spoke,  Gina's body following his command, walking over to a half-broken mirror.

The girl stood there speechless. Nothing seemed out of place. Nothing was different. But her eyes were dead. The looked on towards her reflection with a hundred-mile stare.

Her eyes seemed milky, the white of them now a darker shade of purple, her pupils still a glowing yellow. The sight

'Wha-' Gina gasped not seeing her lips move as she spoke. Her body didn't even flinch as she spoke.

"What now Shigaraki?" Gina's blood ran cold as her lips moved on their own. Her voice projecting out into the world on its own.

The girl soon realized what had happened...

She wasn't in control.
