Fractured

Accepted

-Deku's pov-

I wake up the next morning, still tired and sore from the test yesterday.

I remember my thoughts from before I fell asleep. I'm scared to go downstairs, they probably already sent out the letters. Shigaraki probably already saw it. I know I failed. The only robot I destroyed was the zero point.

I grudgingly get up and leave my room. I walk down to the bar area, where I will probably die. I remember the room that I was tortured in the week before I joined. I don't want to be in the dark again.

The moment I set my feet in the bar, all eyes are on me. Everyone's faces have no emotion, and I start to panic. My eyes dart around the room, before settling on the opened envelope on the bar counter. Thoughts race through my mind, wondering what they are planning to do to me.

"You passed," I hear the familiar voice of kurogiri say, surprising me.

"W-what?" I stutter out, the words settling in my head, "I-I passed?!"

"Yes, although . . . the circumstances of you passing . . . are . . . odd," kurogiri explains,"You passed with hero points, not villain points. You destroyed a robot to save someone, not for points . . . "

I stiffen. Maybe passing was worse . . .

"That doesn't matter, though. You still passed," Shigaraki says with a chilling smile, " You start school at UA next week, you can go upstairs. You've earned it."

I thank him and walk back upstairs, fighting the urge to run. They didn't care as long as I passed.

When I get to my room and close the door, I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. I let myself fall onto the bed. I want to fall asleep, but it wasn't even noon yet, so I get up and walk to my desk.

I sit down and open a textbook so I can study. It will help me get my mind off things.

-

I'm only able to study for an hour before I get too anxious to continue. I feel my hands shake, and my breaths become uneven.

I close the book, and lay my head on the desk, trying to calm myself. Tears start falling from my eyes, I try to stop crying, but I can't. Silent sobs shake my body for what feels like forever.

-

I finally manage to calm down, and I lift my head. I look over at the small clock on my desk

9:00 pm

I had been sitting there for hours. I must have fallen asleep at one point. I stand up and slowly walk to my bed, exhausted from crying for so long.

I fall asleep, my dreams replaced by nightmares.

-

I wake up the next morning and go downstairs because I'm hungry. I didn't eat that much yesterday, so I'm pretty much starving.

Halfway down the stairs, I could smell breakfast.

Pancakes.

I haven't had pancakes in so long. Kurogiri hasn't made pancakes the entire time I was here.

I enter the bar and see the villains already eating fluffy pancakes drowned in syrup.

I see a plate with pancakes on the counter with no one eating them, so I walk over to it. I sit down and grab the syrup. I pour alot, and put a bite sized piece in my mouth. Delicious. It's just as fluffy as the ones my mom makes.

I frown at that thought, remembering my mom. I miss her. I miss her so much.

"Don't look so down, you made it into UA! We will finally be able to destroy All Might!" I hear someone say, making me pause my thoughts.

I look next to me and am greeted by a kid. He's wearing a school uniform similar to mine.

"You can call me mustard," the kid says with a grin, holding his hand out, offering to shake my hand.

I accept his handshake, and am surprised at how firm it is. He may be skinny, but he's still strong.

He continues eating his pancakes and I do the same. After I finish, I go back upstairs to rest. Tomorrow is the first day at UA, After All.

-

The moment my head hits my pillow, I stiffen. Kacchan probably passed. He's going to be there. A wave of fear washes over me, imagining his reaction to me being there. I can't change anything, because I'm already registered with my real name. That was a mistake. I should have made up a name for it.

I sigh.

Too late now, I guess

I let myself close my eyes and I fall asleep, dreaming about UA.

Sorry this one is shorter! I just couldn't think of anything else to write before deku goes to UA.

I will try to make the next chapter longer, though. To make up for the shortness of this one
