Different Than You Think (Todoroki Shoto x Fem!Reader)

'Wait a sec... touch the knife. Don't worry about it cutting you. Touch it and manipulate it. Just get it out of his hand,' (Y/N) thought, seeing the knife close to touching her skin. 'This is going to just be a little sting, but FUCKING TOUCH IT!'

She winced when the metallic liquid started pouring out of her hand as the item pushed through her skin.

"(Y/N)!" Shoto yelled, running to help her.

"Shoto, I'm fine," she yelled back, pain rushing to her head. "This might be painful, but I know what I'm doing."

He looked back at her, astounded at her strength in the situation. It might've been threatening her life and everyone else's, but she was trying to save lives here, not just sit back and relax with some popcorn and Dr. Pepper. This wasn't a Marvel movie, this was real, and she was going to do her best to save her friends. It was now or never.

'I can do this, just focus. Don't think about the pain. Just pay attention to the knife.'

She knew that she wasn't touching it anymore when it slid out of her hand and towards the tall man's mouth.

"(L/N)! Don't let him ingest your blood! You'll become paralyzed!" Midoriya yelled at the (H/C) girl, realizing what had happened last time.

She looked up at the man, disgust painted across her pain-filled face.

"Bitch, you eat that stuff? That's disgusting," she retorted, still focusing on the knife. This was supposed to be a slight distraction, but it wasn't working. "You should go on a 'no blood' diet. Or are you a fucking vampire?"

Slowly standing up, she began to focus more and more on the item in Stain's hand.

'Slip it out of his hand.'

"Ha! You think your little quirk is going to work on me?" He noticed what she was trying to do and quickly brought the knife up to his face. "You do realize that I saw you during the Sports Festival broadcast, right? You're at quite a disadvantage, I know what all of your quirks are!"

The (H/C)'s eyes widened at his words.

"N-no. That's not true. We will defeat you! With quirks and all!"

"Oh, I think it's true, sweetheart."

"Ew, don't call me that."

As she began to work harder to get the knife out of his hand, he quickly licked the blood off of the weapon, leaving her speechless.

She gasped, having never felt this feeling before.

"I-I... I can't move... Shit," she said under her breath, sitting on the ground, her back against the brick wall of the alleyway.

Shoto knew that this would probably happen, luckily he had a plan for if this were to happen.

"(Y/N)! Are you okay?!" The dual-haired boy sounded panicked as he yelled out to her. He knew what he would have to do at the moment. It was either save everyone or die trying.

"I'm fine!" Lies. She wasn't okay at all. Her hand had a large piercing through the palm, she was paralyzed, and she had emotional trauma.

Memories, flowing back into her mind. Who from? Shigaraki. Wow, big surprise. But if it weren't for him, she would've never wanted to become a hero. She came up with the choice to be a hero long ago, and that was just to beat him. It only made sense that he would become a villain, nobody liked him. Well, the League of Villains did.

'I'm gonna fucking die.'

She winced, realizing how much her head hurt. She took quite a hit to the head when she fell back after becoming paralyzed. It was, in fact, bricks that she was leaning against. It shouldn't be too comfortable.
