The Machine (Bakugou Katsuki x (Cyborg-Female) Reader)
"I'm just a piece of metal and flesh."
"You're more than that. I see you as a person. You're no different..."
The year is 2155. Eight years have passed since the war, and life has settled into an uneasy peace. Midoriya Izuku is now a teacher at U.A., while Bakugou Katsuki-now known as the pro hero Dynamight-runs his own agency alongside Kirishima Eijiro. Crime has dwindled, and the villains that remain are nothing they can't handle.
But for (L/N) (Y/N), the future isn't just a new year-it's a foreign world.
Kidnapped at 21 years old in 2025, she should have died. Instead, she wakes up in an unfamiliar time, her body no longer her own-cybernetic, engineered, altered. She is nearly sold in an illegal auction, unconscious in a glass tube, when the pro hero Bakugou Katsuki blows the whole operation apart.
Now, stranded in a future she never asked for, Y/N must adapt-not only to a world where quirks exist, but to the unsettling truth of her own existence. She was stolen, reshaped, and left with no explanation of why. The only clue? The man responsible is still alive.
Tasked with solving the mystery of her own disappearance, Y/N is partnered with the same explosive pro hero who saved her. But as they dig deeper, what begins as an investigation into the past turns into something far more dangerous. And through it all, Bakugou Katsuki gets closer than she ever expected.
Somewhere between metal and flesh, between past and future, she will have to decide-who is she now? And will she ever be whole again?
