(ART BELONGS TO RIGHTFUL CREATOR)
I just want to leave, but he won't let me. I feel like I'm imprisoned in a never ending life of torture. Escaping won't do me no good he ends up finding every time. I know his secrets and I promised not to tell. Deku's personality switches from time to time. his underlings/groups doesn't seem to care about his personality,  but they keep close attention on  his actions because just how I am they are Terrified of him.

One minute he's the Izuku I knew, the next is a person I never wanted to meet.

I Presume that this is mainly written in 3rd person or only Katsuki's Pov

Our Untold Secrets by OneTonzSoup

Deku has been distant lately. Has it been weeks since he came out of his room or came to any UA classes in general. Where does he go, why has he been distant? Is it because of the obvious untruthful tale that his now ex Uraraka fibed? Is it because of the death of his mom that no one but his childhood best friend and an invisible girl cared about? Or does he have another secret that is untold? Why has this ray of sunshine been so.. so COLD?! But, no one cares about his problems, not a single soul except for an "Invisible" girl who sits two seats up from him... and she WILL get to the bottom of it. Guys I can see what you add my stories to, this story is not a "Lemon" but it does contain self-harm and mature language. If you want a more "mature" story then you should read my "New Love" story. Thank you.

Our Broken Story ♡Katsuki Bakugou x Reader♡ by sgh101404

Katsuki Bakugou thinks that he's not enough. Why even try when that damn nerd Deku's taking his place? Why should he even try anymore when everything's so bleak because he ended All Might? It all changes when a girl saves him after he jumped. But there's something....odd...about her. Maybe it's the way that she makes sure he comes first before everything else. Or maybe it's that she always seems to come at the right time....and that he's slowly falling more in love with her each day he spends with her. "I WANTED TO DIE!" "If you want to die wait until you're old and have lived your life! This isn't the way to go!

Catch Me if You Can! (Villain Rehab) by Chimera_Regarion

Everything was fine nothing was wrong and I was happy with my life. I still had a grandpa who is loving me and keeping an eye out on me as well as supporting my every move. I wasn't really a villain but a master thief. Still I made a name for myself and landed on the third place of the most wanted villains of all japan. Everything was really going on well if not for this cheeky hot bastard. Did I call him hot? Yes! If I would need to describe him then I would say a very well done maybe even burned chicken nugget. He looked that way at least. Then there was this look he was giving me. It was filled with loneliness and desires. I know he wants me but he is way too much for me. I have a feeling he will devour me whole if I give in but the temptation is really hard to resist. As if my life wasn't going on well with that new guy... I got caught by a certain sleep deprived coffee addicted hero too! GREAT RIGHT! JUST GREAT! I wonder what will happen next?! Will the world finally end? Let's find out! A/N: This is a mha fanstory and I have no idea where this is gonna go ... hope you enjoy! Please also feel free to correct my bad writing. Rights on the pictures go to the artist.

Stay with me || Dkbk by Izukuxs

Summary 1: Chapters 1-18 Izuku is facing attachment issues ever since the war arc. He found himself unable to sleep without Katsuki beside him to reassure his existence. So as any person would, Katsuki decided to help Izuku with it. The two stay glued onto each other like shoelaces, being able to untie themselves, but deciding not to. Summary 2: Chapters 19-26 Nobody said being a hero was easy, take Hawks for example. People both love and hate him for his actions, imposed on him by the hero cooperation and out of his control. Katsuki was attractive, die hard attractive. He was used to getting attention, he just didn't expect to attract the attention of Japans most wanted Yakuza. --- My writing skills werent as developed while working on this but if you want to read the parts where they improved start on chapter 19, the chapters after were an add on story that is understandable without reading the chapters before. ‼️This includes‼️: -Separation anxiety. -Cussing (It's Bakugou what do you expect) -Un-canon events. -PTSD -Un-healthy habits -Angst -Hurt/Comfort -Indication of health issues resolves -Happy ending -Eventual smut -Sexual assault -Minor body modification (is fixed at the end) -Triggering themes and events -Referenced mpreg (no actual pregnancy) -Sexual themes -Quirks are used to change one's body -Katsuki is hot asf ⚠️WARNINGS FOR LAST/SMUT CHAPTER⚠️: -Semi-public sex -Bondage -Power play -Quirk play -Orgasm denial -Overstimulation -Face fucking -Blow jobs -Praise -Objectification (minor) -Under-negotiated kinks -Slight dom/sub undertones Best scored: #1 Seperation anxiety 2024 -- Total word count: 50k+ -- All characters rightfully belong to Horikoshi.

Ever since Izuku Midoriya joined U.A. High School and settled in, he knew that the League of Villains were after him and his quirk: One For All. However, when the time comes when Bakugo is the target and is only seconds away from being captured, Midoriya throws himself in the chaos and ends up saving Bakugo, only at the cost of his own safety as he is captured instead. Midoriya is brought back to the League of Villains' hideout and with him there, Shigaraki plans on changing the young boy's mindset and plans to use force against him. When Midoriya isn't able to escape for three years and no one can seem to find him, he begins to lose hope and his wounds only bleed more. Even when he goes back in time with the help of a pro hero's quirk, he is diagnosed with depression and struggles to go on through life. He doesn't feel like himself. He needs someone. He needs someone so badly. But what if there isn't anybody to help Midoriya? How will Midoriya cope when someone close to him dies right in his arms? Warning! This story will contain depression, suicide talk, torture (not explained explicitly), violence, and a whole lot of angst! Also, this story won't contain any ships.

A Femboy To Rember by Animestorywriting

Izuku Midoriya is a boy that has gone through hell and back. He was bullied for not having a quirk all through middle school by his "best friend" Katsuki Bakugo. Then out of the blue, he gained a quirk. His quirk is called "Emotional Damage". It isn't as bad as it sounds. It just means that when someone is faced with torture or something similar to it you will gain a quirk. It's pretty rare so he doesn't use it much. This quirk allows the owner to have a certain thing happen to him based on his emotions. Deku had gone through a Femboy phase so he just goes with it now, no matter what people say or think and somehow got a harem along the way. He has grown mentally and physically tough so it's hard to get to his heart. Will his harem the consist of his classmates be able to break down the layers to this badass femboy's heart or not. We will see~ ⚠️CONTAINS⚠️ mentions of suicide,cursing and Femboy/Badass Deku cause why not 😗💅 ꕥᵈⁱˢᶜᵒⁿᵗⁱⁿᵘᵉᵈꕥ P . S : Please if you do not like the very heavy usage of misspelling, cursing , talk of suicide , Femboy Deku please exit this story . I wish to remind all that this book was created when I was younger and so I did not have much knowledge on the topic of story writing . The layout of the book changes from a stage play to heavy paragraphs so beware of that. But please enjoy my other recent books made with better writing and less spelling errors.

✔︎ With You 'till The End (BKDK Apocalypse) by BeanQueen_29

This is a BakuDeku Fanfiction 🔞. Katsuki tries his best in surviving, keeping it together till the end and Izuku tries to live through it all before finally giving in and leaving all that he loved, behind. Katsukis world comes crumbling down at the revelation. An accident took place in the far north of Japan, where an abandoned lab had exploded due to the mixture of deadly chemicals. There were no survivors within a 10 mile radious from it until government officials were informed that people were reporting unsightly creatures roaming the streets, sending photos, videos, writing articles and casting the news about it until everyone around the world knew that they were no longer alone. Humans no longer ruled the top of the food chain. Hundreds of thousands of kids, adults, teens, and elderly have been devoured and killed in cold blood in just days. In their sleep. In schools, hospitals, playgrounds-- by giant beasts. That's when they knew that the only way to live, was to survive. At least, that's the goal to Katsukis new life, but what better way to do it then face everything and go at it alone? With help that Katsuki didn't want because they would only slow his search for the boy he grew up with; Izuku Midoriya. CONTENT WARNING -smut -blood - mentions of suicide - offence to suicide - character death(s) - mature scenes (violence, sexual, strong language, and other...) - fluff

Medicine // Bakudeku Fanfic by KatsukisBlanket

Deku, a 14-year-old fanboy, struggles with something seemingly unsignificant but unpermits him to become the greatest hero of all time. He never realized, or it never bothered him when he was a younger kid. But what he did not know was that those minor feelings and affection drastically grew unnoticeably, eventually turning it into something disadvantageous. He thought it was admiration, but it was only the cause of that. He thought it was only teenage development, but it was nothing like that. And, well, what did that person do when they found out that they were what surpassed his medication? The one that triggered them into being another person? They took advantage of it, turning it into a complicated relationship. Warning: Mature Content. This is not a romance fanfic. It contains the following: - Drugs - Bullying - Profanity - Violence - Yaoi - Abuse - Etc. Middle School AU (Soon will change as the plot develops) I do not own My Hero Academia, the pictures, nor the characters. Cover and Art by me. --- FINISHED Start: 30.3.21 Finish: 16.12.21

My Hero (Katsuki x Izuku) by tivirawrites

PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION BEFORE READING THE STORY!! Ever since they were kids, Katsuki Bakugo has been mercilessly bullying his classmate Izuku Midoriya for being quirkless-or so Izuku thought. He learns as he matures that the relentless Katsuki is afraid of his own weakness, and Izuku's new quirk intimidates him. But after a fight full of punches and confessions, the two start to have a better understanding of each other. This understanding starts to turn into a complicated friendship, and then into a budding romance-that's until Izuku mysteriously leaves UA with barely a trace. This story does have some canonicity in it, but some events are switched around. I'm going to try and make the personalities of the characters as canon as possible, but this is a fanfiction so there will be some differences here and there to fit with the story. There is no smut in this fanfic. I believe writing smut between minors is disgusting and weird. If you want to read bkdk smut, this fanfic is not for you. Lastly, these are not my characters-the characters belong to Kohei Horikoshi. As for the cover, the art is done by Lois (it's the watermark on the cover) and I found it on Pinterest from user Joleen. I hope you all enjoy! I will try to post as much as I can.
