chapter twenty-eight; the convert project

By the time the three piled themselves back up stairs with you and Shōtō, Mei went silent once seeing the title of the project.

Her fist were clenched, as she took the file from your hands— you furrowing your brows as you stared at her.

"Have you seen this before?" You asked, watching as she flipped in open, eyes scanning the page, she clenched the papers in her hands.

"This project... 2 years ago I helped Yagi create this," She said, looking up from the file to look at everyone in the room, "After Yagi accomplished giving robots emotions, he wanted to move on to bigger things.. such as converting a human into a humanoid, and he said he would perform this first on someone.. which he did, and.." The salmon pink haired girl began to trail off.

"...did it work?" Izuku asked.

"It did, he gave his test subject not only immortality, but a quirk. After that I-I helped him some more, he was gonna try making himself into a humanoid. To not only be able to live forever, but to be an ultimate soldier to protect his creations... he wanted to stop all the abuse that humans do on his creations, and most of all...wanted to kill the 'big man,' in charge for allowing such ferocious acts, his justified actions moved me... but I just couldn't do it anymore, he did something was too far..Yagi was going insane! He was going too far, going too far!" She slammed her fist on her work shop table.

Her shoulder shaking, as your eyes widened at this new information that was given to you.

A human turning into a humanoid...? What?

"Where is the person who got turned into a humanoid? Do you know where they are...? Maybe they can provide more answers," Shōtō piped up, his eyes trailing to you, then at Katsuki who had been ever so silent.

"...they're dead," She said in a hushed whispered, hugging her.

"This can't be, Yagi wouldn't do something this impossible.. I've known him longer than you... and yet I've never heard of this?! This is bullshit," Katsuki snatched the file away, going to rip it, until pictures began to fall out.

And what made your heart drop, was that they were snap shots of you. Some where you were at the store, at the cafe, even in the comfort of your own home.

"The fuck?" Katsuki said, as Izuku bent down, picking up one of the photos of you smiling brightly next to James at Dannie's Cafe.

"..you said...Yagi took things too far.. what do you mean he took things too far? What did he do..?" Whispered Izuku, looking up from the photo of you, then into her eyes.

"In order to make a human into a humanoid.. the human had to have specific genes, specific DNA coding, he hunted everywhere in Japan until he finally found...you," Mei turned from Izuku to look at you, which made your breath hitch, "But in order to become a humanoid...you'll have to be at the brink of death...he was going to kill you, then give you life! However with the first project th-the victim barely survived! It was hard adjusting, especially with a machinery body...! So I ran away, and I took...I took the instructions, blue prints, notes, everything that pertained to this project away, coming here.. and gathering as many humanoids as I could.. spreading the truth to them," She finished.

You paled, feeling sick to your stomach, so they were gonna murder you? And make you into a fucking bucket of bolts? Just because you had some 'DNA CODING'?!What was this?! What the fuck was going on?! It was too much.. all of this was too much!

"That's why he sent us there, he wanted the project plan, his test subject, in the same area.. so it'd be easy to retrieve.. them.. how was he murdered? Did someone figure this out, and wanted to stop him? Before he could make himself into a soldier?" Izuku said— he found his way to your side, locking his hand with yours, holding it tightly.. as if his life force depended on it.

"That's a possibility," She sniffed, walking around her work shop, going on top of a stepping stool then removing some of the ceiling, revealing a secret compartment, pulling out a large box, "However, if he died, then that means his plan failed, he won't be taking you away.. and doing the unspeakable," Mei informed you, placing the box onto the workshop table.

"If that's it... then what's inside me?" Izuku asked, bringing his hand to his lower abdomen.

"Good question."

Izuku felt himself up, mostly since he was too embarrassed to have anyone else touch him besides himself— and once finding the button, he pressed down on it, and this time, the compartment didn't even have a lock! He simply just opened it, and a white note, with a big bright red bold letters written across it:

"I'm coming."

Izuku shuddered once reading the not out loud, his torso coming to a close, as you immediately pulled him into your arms. His entire form shaking, as he hugged you, burying his head into your chest.

"Coming? What the fuck? What is that supposed to mean...I don't understand any of this shit!" Katsuki gripped at his hair, "This is none sense! That Yagi I know was always so fucking kind, even when I was a huge ass to him he always never failed to fucking smile...! This p-psycho your explaining can be him! It can't be! And I saw his dead body with my own eyes... so how the fuck...!??" The blond shouted, clenching his eyes as everyone in the room stared at him.

"Bakugo.. I don't think it's wise to be in denial in a situation like this, and that note," Shōtō's eyes trailed towards the floor where Izuku dropped it, "Gives me a feeling that.. Yagi might still be alive, he might have completed turning into that 'super soldier..' if that true, now that we've done our part by revealing the truth...I have a bad feelings he's on his way for [M/n]," Said Shōtō.

You felt Izuku's arms around you tighten.

"That won't happen," Stubbornly stated Izuku.

Making Katsuki snap out of his trance.

"Fucking dumbass! Even if we were to try and stop him, if he really is acting the way you say he is and is some super fucking soldier, then how would we stop him?! We don't have quirks, they're completely fucking gone!" Shouted the spiky blond haired boy, whilst you just continued to pet Izuku on the head, placing a small kiss on the top of the shorter boys head.

"It's actually beneficial you don't have your quirks,"Mei began once again, "The hero Corp has a button, once licked all humanoids with quirks will immediately shut down.. it was made like that just in case there was an uprising, and thanks to that button that's the only reason humanoids have been in check all this time." She said.

"That explains a lot, no wonder heroes haven't started a riot..because I sure as hell thought about it a couple of times," Katsuki stated, frowning deeply.

"Wait," You spoke up, still massaging Izuku's scalp, "If that button exists, would it also cancel out Yagi?" You asked.

Hei grinned wickedly.

"It's a possibility that I'm willing to try."
