Eri

**Trigger warning cutting, blood experiments**

-Hour 10-

You open your eyes seeing a bright light in your face. You groan and try to get up but you're strapped down. You pull on your arms trying to move but nothing budges. You lay back down and turn your head. "Did I black out...how long has it been..." A door opens and Overhaul walks in Dabi behind him "Look who decided to wake up" Overhaul hovers over you taking his gloves off. "Seems Dabi went too far letting Deidoro watch you" he touches Your coat making it vanish. "What do you think you're doing?!" you start struggling to try to get out of the shackles. Overhaul steps back, Dabi grabs your legs and holding them down adding heat. "I'd stop squirming or I'll cook you" you stop feeling your legs starting to burn. Overhaul grabs a scalpel your eyes widen "n-no stop" Dabi puts his hand over your mouth while Overhaul takes your arm and starts cutting. You scream in pain crying he takes the skin sample and puts it in a beaker. "Your quirk is released through the air and your sweat. If I can extract it from your skin the potency will be much stronger.

Dabi takes his hand away from your mouth and putting it on the cut you shake your head "n-no please don't" A small flame leaves his hand cauterizing the wound. you scream and cry feeling the heat. "Your going to make her blackout doing that to her" You whimper looking at your now purple wound. You look back at Dabi 'Thoes scars..they're burns. He's burnt himself so badly..'  "You're weak, you never realized the potential of your quirk" you look at Overhaul adding chemicals to the skin sample. "You only got as far as controlling animals weaker beings. However, your pheromones can go as far as controlling any living creature, your just finding it too difficult to learn and figure people out." He turns around mixing the beaker up the liquid changing color. "You had all this power yet used it for nothing" Overhaul stops mixing and looks at the beaker adding a cork to the top of it. "we need to test this" He takes it and leaves to another room. You look up at Dabi "You know he just needed you to capture me. The second he figures out how to keep himself from being affected he's going to drop it on you, you'll be arrested for my capture and torture and he gets away." You sigh laying your head down "you'll be the monster" Dabi chuckles "You really think I'm going to let you talk your way out of this. How stupid do I look" you turn your head looking at your arm.

"I don't think you're stupid. I'm just telling you what's going to happen, Keigo and the others will be coming Overhaul knows that, I bet you he hasn't told you how to escape out of here or where I'm going to be held once he takes me out of this lab. Aren't you curious who he's testing on? You're being left out even if you think you know enough, it's happened before to you Dabi it's how you became a villain isn't it?" He grits his teeth and punches right next to your face "You don't know what you're talking about!" he growls his eyes full of confusion, unsure what to believe.  "Dabi go deal with Shigaraki he's here the secondary door has locked him out. I'll leave it to you to ensure no one else comes inside"

Dabi looks over at Overhaul "you want to test on someone nows your chance" Overhaul tosses a small cartridge to him, Dabi catches it and smirks looking at it "there's a gun near the secondary door" Dabi takes the cartridge and leaves. "W-wait don't do this you don't understand how it'll affect him" Overhaul lifts your head up by pulling your hair "Shut up, your so annoying, Chronostasis get in here and help me get some more samples" another plague masked villain walks in with a tray full of beakers and vials. You try to move shaking your head "n-no please no!" you get struck with Chronostasis's hair, you feel heavy your head dropping down "We have an hour before she regains full mobility" Overhaul lets go of your hair. You try kicking but your legs barely move 'w-what is this.. what did he do to me..?'

Overhaul brings a scalpel to your arm "Don't worry this will still hurt~"

-Narrative POV-

Shigaraki pounds on the door "what's the deal with this stupid code?!" The door disarms and opens. "Finally-" Dabi has a gun pointed at Shigaraki's head "what's your deal Dabi we're one team here" Dabi smirks pulling the trigger knocking Shigaraki back he closes the door and watched through the glass. "Get out of here Shigaraki" the pink mist from the bullet clears the area and Shigaraki gets up from the ground. Slumped over he drags himself out of the building. He trudges himself into ongoing traffic, the feather on his shoe moves and grabs the back of his shirt dragging him up in the air and towards Keigo. It sets him in front of Sir Shigaraki starts trudging away again, Aizawa grabs him with his scarf but he continues to struggle. "what's going on with him? Stop resisting"  Shigaraki stops and becomes limp. Keigo Drops down and looks at Shigaraki.

"It's Y/n her quirk he practically a zombie." Aizawa looks at Shigaraki "Her quirk doesn't control normal people. It can't be her" Keigo looks at the building "It's pheromones Overhaul probably figured out how to affect its potency to the point even people can't escape it" Keigo turn back to Shigaraki "there's another way in where is it?" Shigaraki looks up and starts struggling again. "we need to follow him before her quirk wears off" Aizawa nods and lets go of Shigaraki letting him wander. Sir grabs Keigo's arm "Don't be reckless, Overhaul and his gang are nothing to mess with" Keigo pulls his arm back "Neither am I" he closes his wings and starts following Aizawa and Shigaraki.

-Y/N POV/ Hour 11-

You shake regaining your mobility. Chronostasis grabs you and carries you away Overhaul disposes of his bloodied gloves and puts on a new pair. You look at your arms, they had almost skinned both arms clean, blood dripping everywhere, the pain was so intense you couldn't even feel. Chronostasis opens a room and sets you in a chair strapping your legs and wrists down. "Eri come here" You look around until your eyes fall onto a small girl, she's shaking her arms and legs bandaged. "Eri I said come here!" Chronostasis shouts, the little girl flinches and walks up to him. You try to move but his quirk was still affecting you, 'why is she here? who is she..this isn't good' "Eri we need your power" he reaches for her "l-leave her alone!" you move your leg the right shackle loose. Chronostasis looks back at you "don't you want to be healed, this girl is the only one able to do so"

"s-she's just a kid, not a t-tool" Chronostasis laughs "the two of you are nothing but tools for Master Overhaul." You move your leg slightly getting it free from the shackle. Eri steps back afraid. You look at Chronostasis and smile "Your just his tool as well, nothing but a henchman he's okay with disposing of. Making you take care of his dirty work" He walks up to you. You use all your strength and kick straight up kicking his mask off pushing him back. He groans looking up his nose bleeding. He grabs your face and smirks "Suffer then" he kneels down strapping your leg up pulling all the straps as tight as they will go before leaving. You groan feeling the pain increase on your arms. Eri looks at you her eyes full of fear. "h-hey it's okay. D-don't worry" You smile. Eri walks up and looks at you "y-you're bleeding"  shes so quiet. "d-don't worry about me, okay everything will be okay" The door slams open, and Overhaul steps in, Eri runs back hiding behind the table.

"So you're still trying to be a hero" he starts taking off his glove "still think you can get out of this" you shake your head "it isn't right using her quirk like this, at this age. She shouldn't be seeing anything like this" He laughs "for the past few years I've been utilizing her quirk to develop a quirk erasing drug she's been through more than you" you grit your teeth "what kind of monster does that to a child!" you shout in his face, he smirks putting his glove back on "I came in here to restore your arms, However instead I'll just be taking Eri with me" Overhaul steps inside and picks her up. She doesn't fight back, but she's afraid her body shaking. "when you decide to give up we'll come back and patch you up." He stops at the door "That is if you can last long like this"

He slams the door shut leaving you alone. You struggle trying to get free but only add to the pain your arms are in. You stop and look down tears rolling down your face. "he's been torturing that poor girl for years...I need to get her out of here" You hear a loud explosion above you. The door locks up. You hear people running in the halls.

"T-They're here..Keigo is here"
