I barely listened between their talks all I could hear was the ringing in my ears watching everything play in slow motion. His grip on me loosens dropping me to the ground, a strong force picks me up flying off to All Might, "Its alright kid you're safe now!"

I shivered barely being able to open my mouth warning him of what I was, that I was just a double. He hushes me placing me down holding his ground. The old man held me close rubbing my messed up hair, "Try not to move okay?"

He hoists me on his small back turning us to the two Villains, "There's two left, I'll end this, and get out of here with the girl"

I glowed blue getting pulled away from the hero. I flew past All Might my dull eyes stared into his as I past crashing into a hand around the back of my neck. I hang in the air and within seconds the shock went through me again activating a Quirk. The old man shot out of the portal taking the hit of All Mights punch. The grip on my neck tightened as All for One spoke. My head nodded from exhaustion as he repeatedly used me over and over, "Heroes have lots of things to protect. The Symbol of Peace who swore to be the podium of Justice can't even save a girl who's close to dying in my hands"

A strip strikes my back again building up pressure. I recognized this Quirk making me scared. I felt it disappear and reappear but I couldn't control it. My head dropped becoming paralyzed, Puppetry. That was how he was going to do it. How he going to use me to end All Might. I dropped to the ground feeling everything around me crack and blow me away. I stared at the stars eye wide at what's to come.

My arm twitched lifting up, my body stood up making small cracking sounds coming to a full stand. I took a step forward and then another coming close to the talking men. My hand lifts clenching tightly, I felt another Quirk activate my fist sparks making a straight punch for All Mights head.

A strong force burst through as I went in for the punch missing just an inch, but I was enough to blow him into the air. My heart dropped at what my body did. I never liked the thought of using Puppetry because it never felt right consuming the person's soul for it to work. The Quirk was strong, yes but you grow insane from the constant usage of it. I only kept it for in case a fight were to escalate to a level of uncertainty. And yet here my body was being used by the man himself.

He stood up staring down at me, "Couple more acts and you're done" he taps where his chin would be letting out an Ah turning to All Might. My body faces him as well as standing still. I swallowed thickly watching him cough out blood. My lip quivered seeing him all beatened up, "I'm a little conflicted...  The trust in heroes that Tomura steadily chipped away as I wonder if it's okay for me to land the decisive blow. But you know, All Might as much as you hate me. I hate you in the same way, I killed your master, but you took away the things I built up, too, right? That's why I want you to die the ugliest and most gruesome death possible! And for that to happen she will be the one to end you as I calculated for months now!"

My body walked in front of him taking a stance, All Might looked shocked frowning at his words, "She has no business in our mess so keep her out of it!"

"On the contrary, my business is with whoever I want it to be a part of and as the Death Solution to my desires she will strip you away till you're nothing"

My hand lifted creating a rush of air around me. My eyes glance behind All Might seeing a woman. The strip connected to my back cracked forcing me to throw the punch. I pulled back and threw the punch strong winds flew towards the injured lady the strength built the more I was forced to let out. I winced at the action trembling once I stopped.

I felt a hand land on my head patting me, "Let everyone see the pathetic form you have now. She has revealed you to the world of who you are!"

The air lightened revealing All Mights true form. Tears spilled out seeing him tremble in place. I felt the strip get pulled out and I was tired once more. I dropped to the ground, "Right then: I give up. I forgot how much of a brat and naughty child you are. Although I will leave you with two things"

My body rose from the ground my arms dangled beside my head my eyes connected with All Mights for a few seconds before my body turned to All for One a strip struck into my stomach pulling a Quirk out. I scream grabbing the strip begging him to stop, but it was too late. He took out the Power Enhancer Quirk as I drained in color going limp.

"One to truly pull your heartstrings. You know Tomura Shigaraki is Nana Shimura's grandson! I kept thinking about what you would hate the most. I created chances for you and Tomura to meet. You defeated him right? You smiled so proudly when you won, not knowing a thing!"

"That's a lie!"

"It's the truth and second this child here... She holds a Power Quirk that's strong enough to kill you and did you really think I would risk bringing her here to power me?"

The strips on my legs rose me higher slamming me down the concrete. Again and again, he slammed my body to the ground dragging me to his side. His foot sat on my back pushing down, "You tried to save a girl that was never here to begin with"

His foot picked up and crashed against my back. The heavy foot knocked me back into my actual body that was still in the dark strapped in. I tried getting up but received excruciating pain instead. What now? Because of me that Quirk is now being used to end All Might. The guilt swallowed me desperately wanting this to just be a nightmare. That my Quirks weren't really taken and that I'm still in camp. I opened my eyes still on the bed, a groaning sound slammed against the door, the groans got louder and heavy footsteps came closer.

I held my breath trying to look behind me. I held in a scream seeing a giant Nomu stare at me with one eye. It's sharp teeth opened letting out a creepy chirp. I stayed quiet watching it raised a hand pushing my hair behind my ear... What now?
