Dance into Madness

Alright, this one is gonna take place directly after the Mado killing and will center around Ochako as she meets and sees the extent of how deep Izuku's plunge into madness could truly be. Enjoy.

Ochako POV:

After the incident with the investigators, Mr. Arima thought it was best for Sero and me to meet someone in Cochlea. "Welcome to Cochlea. The CCG's containment facility for Ghouls we capture alive. Here, we hold Ghouls that have information and/or are too difficult to kill without weakening them enough." "So this place is kinda like a final destination or something for Ghouls?" "Yes Sero." We began taking an elevator down to some of the lower levels as we're explained how the site is handled. From what I got, Ghouls are held in certain locations depending on how dangerous they are. The Ghouls that are C or B class that aren't really troublemakers are held near the top, while Ghouls of S or higher ranks are held closer near the bottom where the eradication area's held. 'So this is the place Todoroki's mom was held up in for 15 years.' 

When the elevator stopped, the door opened to a freezing cold room that nipped me to the bone. "Why is it so cold here?" "It's to prevent the prisoners to respond as well as they could." I began walking towards a glass window while Mr. Arima explained they facility more to Sero. I looked through to see some movement. I tried to look closer before someone banged their head on the wall from the other side. "If it isn't the flasher from the USJ! How fun it is to see you again!" I jumped back seeing Izuku's father as he laughs at my reaction. 

"Isn't that Chinera!?" Sero was rather surprised he was here while Mr. Arima helped me to my feet. "So what brings you here Reaper? Come to gloat in my darling little monster of a son's place~?" "IZUKU IS NOTHING LIKE YOU! DON'T YOU DARE CALL HIM YOUR SON AFTER WHAT YOU'VE DONE!" "Ohh, someone likes my son~. Tell me sweetie, how much fun do you and him have in a bedroom?" He started laughing before Mr. Arima snacked the screen getting him to shut up. "We are here to talk, not proclaim profanity to aid your sadistic mind. Now tell us, where is Aogiri Tree's heads and when will they meet again?" The monster looked at all of us before saying his demands. "I'll cut a deal with you all, I'll tell you what I know as long as I get to speak with my son's little fucktoy alone~." "You son of a-" Mr. Arima put his hand out in front of Sero so he wouldn't interfere. "That isn't going to happen." "Then no deal. Your loss too cause I know when they are meeting up and it's not going to be that long from now. Tata~." I thought about what was going to happen if we couldn't. On one hand, this could be a trick to get me to attempt to kill him and have the bastard take advantage of that. But on the other, we could find out where Aogiri is and put a stop to a serious threat on the Ghoul side and help emphasize Truce's goal with little hindrance.

"Ok. But I want the information. You don't and I'll tell Mr. Arima that you knew nothing which will put you at the head of the extermination list here." "Oh please honey, why would I lie to you all?" 'Is that a trick question?' Sero and Mr. Arima started to head out before he gives me a recorder to play back all of the conversation. "If something goes wrong, tell me and I will personally eradicate this one." I nodded for them to go up the elevator. I sat back down turning on the recorder. "Now that your demands are met, where is Aogiri Tree going to meet?" "Hmm, I could tell you right now.....but I'm losing the desire to say anything to those I don't trust." "*sigh* Fine, what do I need to do in order to have you talk?" He smiled at me in a sickening way. "Tell me, how is Izuku and Inko after the USJ?" "Better knowing you're behind bars and on death row." "HAHAHA! I know they aren't. Why? Because I can tell you're lying." I began to grit my teeth as he went off on some ideal he had. "If you refuse to tell me, then I'll leave it to my imagination. Inko is falling into a deep depression in which she's trying to keep herself busy in any way she could. But now that she only has one arm, it's becoming more and more difficult for her to progress through life. She hides it in a smile, but deep down she wants to break down and cry."
