chapter 44

(A/N: Contains spoilers if you aren't caught up with BNHA vigilante and The main BNHA story please catch up before reading this chapter. Read at own risk.)

A few days had passed since the incident during the Hassaikai raid. Izuku, Ochako, and Nejire had returned to their normal lives for the most part with the occasional attempt to see the little girl they saved during the attack. Unfortunately, these would come to a quick halt when the doctors and nurses would prevent them from entering the room. Due to both Eri’s inability to control her quirk and the fact she is very hesitant to trust people, the doctor had deemed it probably the best course of action to not allow anyone to see the little girl and quarantine her so as to help her get better and avoid her from having too much strain on herself in fear she may become unstable. Izuku felt discouraged that he couldn’t see Eri, but understood that this is probably the best. As they returned to UA, an unsettling thought came into the greenette’s mind to make him wonder. ‘I wonder where the League is hiding?’

Somewhere in an abandoned building of Japan

The members of the League that were left sat in an abandoned building outside of a forest. As they did, some began to act strangely compared to their normal self. “Huh?” Shigaraki’s lifeless eyes began to show some confusion through his hand on his face he called ‘Father’. “Where am I?” Toga began looking around confused with Dabi having a similar look on his face. “Who are you people and where am I?” As the trio looked at each other, a person with a strange face in Kurogiri’s outfit began coming into the room looking at everyone. “Ok, who the heck are you people? Come to think of it, HOW AM I NOT DEAD!? BOULDERS CRUSHED MY SKULL!” Many started looking around with Shigaraki starting first. “If I remember correctly, I was walking down the street trying to find someone to help me before a man in a suit brought me in. When he did, he...he…” Shigaraki began going pale with Dabi holding absolute fear in him.

“No...I couldn’t have...He...he’s my baby brother. There’s no way I’d hurt Shoto.” Toga started looking at her hands and subconsciously seeing blood cover them. “I...I killed...URG!” She began vomiting on the floor remembering an image of her sucking the blood of one of her classmates out through a straw that she freshly killed. “No, I-I couldn’t have hurt Shota. He’s my bud.” The man began to lose it with memories of the USJ flooding his head. The hand villain immediately fell to the ground and screamed his lungs out. “AAAAAHHHHHH!!!” He began remembering all the people he’s hurt or killed begging it was a lie. The scene with the four was that out of a nightmare with Shigaraki laying on the ground losing his mind through screams, Dabi on his knees begging this to be wrong, Toga violently sick to the point she was almost literally puking her guts out remembering all the people she’s killed, and the man crying and praying to whatever god that put him on this earth again for forgiveness hurting his best friend.

Minutes continued with them turning to hours. Reality was a cruel mistress for the four as the truth behind what they did was resurfacing. Dabi was the first to speak. “We..killed people. It was wrong, but we killed people for no reason but our own selfish agenda.” He began to hold tears in his eyes as Toga laid in pain from her stomach and her mind that realized this. The first to say something was the man in Kurogiri’s clothes. “There’s no choice. If we turn ourselves in, maybe we can make amends in some way for those that were wronged by us. Everyone nodded as the man opened a portal from black mist. “If we turn ourselves in, it looks better for us.” “You’re right whoever you are. We do this, at least the world won’t be on edge with us loose.” 

Police station

The small group of four had left the abandoned warehouse and made their way to a police station Some people gave them a few weird looks but upon their arrival to the station every police officer saw them and pointed their guns directly at them "We'd like to turn ourselves in" Shigaraki said while he and the other three began to hold their arms out waiting for handcuffs to be on their wrists as the police approached them cautiously in case it was a trap. Once the four were in handcuffs Shigaraki spoke again " I want to see Allmight and Catalyst please" Then Kurogiri asked to see three people " I want to see Eraserhead, Present mic and Midnight." This seemed like a reasonable request so they put them in a holding cell and contacted the people they wanted to see.
