DEKU’S POV
I woke up with a splitting headache. When my hand reached up to touch my head, it felt wet, and I looked at my hand. It had a bit of blood on it. I tried to remember what happened. I was walking back from the store and then got hit on the head with something. I got a glimpse of a dark hood though. I took a moment to look around, trying to find a way out. I saw that I was tied up in a chair with only my arms free. In front of me was a big table with. Kacchan!? And there’s Ochaco and Todoroki! All of class 1A is here! This is bad. It looks like they are all knocked out. I tried to use my quirk, but it didn’t work. I looked at my wrists and I saw quirk cancellers on them. I tried to get up, but the chains on my neck and legs held me down. Just then, everyone started to wake up. Everyone looked around and looked confused.
“Where are we?” Asked Sero.
“WHERE THE HELL AM I.” Yelled Kacchan.
“I don’t know! I said I think we might have been kidnapped.”
Just then a figure with a dark hood came in.
“OI EXTRA,” Yelled Kacchan. “WHERE THE HELL AM I AND WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO!?”
The figure said in a robot-like voice, “You’re going to play some games. We will eliminate anyone who will refuse.”
The figure pointed to a mirror on the opposite side of the wall all of our faces were. “This is a one-way mirror. Your homeroom teacher and All Might, the 2 people you respect oh so much are behind this and they’re going to see every action you make.”
“You’re planning to make them watch as you kill all of us, right?” Tsu said in a calm voice. However, her eyes looked like they were about to burst into tears.
“Yes and no,” the figure said. “In the first game, I will give a random person a gun and they have to shoot someone else. It’s a 75 percent chance the gun will fire and a 25 percent chance it will not.”
“I would never kill anyone!” Said Mineta. (wow how noble! And before anyone says anything, I know this is not something he would say). “Well, just because you said that….”
I felt sweat dripping down my face.
He’s going to kill him! I thought.
” Iida gets to go first.” Said the figure. (never let them know your next move). Iida just had wide eyes and after what felt like an eternity, asked the figure something: “Can I pick myself?”
“Yes,” said the figure, “but think about your family. How would they feel.”
I had never been so scared in my life. None of the beatings I’ve received from Kacchan had made me this scared, even the worst ones.
” If you will not do it, then I will!” The figure wrapped Iida’s hands around the gun and fired at Mineta. The gun went off (I’m sorry, but he’s the one that I do not like) and Mineta fell on the table.
“Minoru Mineta has been eliminated.” Said a voice. After 5 seconds of everyone finally processing it, we all erupted in screams, starting with Mina and Jiro, the 2 people who were next to him who now had blood covering their faces.
I never thought of Mineta as a best friend, but he was still my classmate and friend and now his body was lying motionless on the table. I saw a small smile come from the figure. When I was finally able to stop screaming, everyone else started to, as well. I looked over and saw a picture of us all together.
“L-look,” I said in a scared voice. There was Mineta with a red ❌ on his face.
“We still need to try to shoot one more person.” Said the figure.
“NO WAY IN HELL WILL THAT HAPPEN!” Yelled Kacchan. “Well, it’s your turn anyways, so...”
He handed the gun to Kacchan. “And this time I will not help you shoot.”
“Kacchan, it’s ok you can shoot me,” I said.
“NO BAKUGOU, KILL ME,” Said Mina.
“I can just kill myself,” Said Kacchan in a low voice.
I started to panic as I saw the spark in Kacchan’s eyes dull a little. As Kacchan reached for the gun, Mina, who was right next to him, grabbed his hand and took the gun.
What is she doing?
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING PINKY!?” Yelled Kacchan.
Aizawa’s POV
I watched in horror as it all played out, from Bakugou yelling to Mineta getting shot. As everyone was screaming, I saw the figure that kidnapped them put a red ❌ over the grape’s face. I looked towards All Might expecting him to use his quirk, but then noticed the quirk cancelers on his wrist. They took my capture weapon, so I have nothing to help them with. Slowly, everyone started to calm down or at least stopped screaming.
“We still need to try to shoot one more person,” said the figure.
“NO WAY IN HELL WILL THAT HAPPEN!” Yelled Bakugou. “Well, it’s your turn anyway so...” He handed the gun to Bakugou, “And this time I will not help you shoot.”
“Kacchan, it’s ok you can shoot me.” Said Midoriya.
“NO BAKUGOU, KILL ME! “Said Mina.
“I can just kill myself,” Said Bakugou in a low voice.
What? I thought to myself. The problem child is always screaming or at least yelling!
As Bakugou reached for the gun, Mina, who was right next to him, grabbed his hand and took the gun. What is she doing? I thought.
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING PINKY!?” yelled Bakugou.
“Goodbye.” She said and shot. (Where did she shoot her head someone else…)
Bakugou’s POV-
I admit I’m scared out of my mind for my friends. For all we know, we could be anywhere underground in a cabin, or even in the sky. Anything is possible with quirks.
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING PINKY!?” I yelled.
“Goodbye.” She said and pressed the gun to her skull. She squeezed her eyes shut and shot.
I looked at the gun, surprised it hadn’t gone off.
The figure started to clap. “Well! Today’s your lucky day! Looks like you are safe.”
“What do you mean?” asked Ojiro.
“You guys were not listening to the rules. The gun has a 25% chance of not going off,” said the figure.
Pinky was just sitting there in shock, not knowing what to do or say.
The figure clapped his hands again. “Well, now I will let you guys sleep.”
He untied everyone from their chairs.
I was going to charge at him as soon as he untied me from my chair, but dumbass Deku held out his finger in a way so the figure can’t see it as a way of saying to wait. Everyone else saw this too. I listened to him just because I felt like it. Once everyone was untied, Deku held out 5 fingers, then 4, then 3, then 2, then 1. “GO!” Yelled Deku.
Everyone knew what I meant and charged at the figure. Electricity ran through my body. I collapsed onto the floor and tried and failed to hold back a scream. After what felt like an eternity, it finally stopped.
The figure looked at Deku and said in a low, cold voice: “You’re going to regret that.”
Everyone was still recovering from the shock when the figure turned to leave the room. He pulled a lever outside of the room and closed the door. Gas started to fill the room. Everyone, including me, was trying their hardest not to breathe it in, but after five minutes, it all went black. The last thing I saw was the figure dragging Deku out of the room.
All Might’s POV
I watched as my successor was dragged out of the room, and everyone collapsed. I was worried and felt useless. The 9th user might be being tortured, or even worse, killed. I started to feel dizzy and saw gas filling the room. Eraser saw it too. I held my breath but noticed it was too late and passed out after 30 seconds.
A few hours later.
Kirishima’s POV (sorry for switching so early).
“WAKE UP ALREADY!” yelled the figure.
I slowly opened my eyes, but the fluorescent light was killing me. I suddenly remembered what happened and was struck by hunger and the smell of rotting flesh, which completely ruined my appetite. Everyone else was asleep. I look across and see a dead Mineta. At that moment, everyone else started to wake up. Everyone, including me, was throwing up what little food we had in our stomachs. This figure guy was not manly at all (is that how he would use manly idk).
“It’s time for the next game,” said the figure.
“Where did you take Deku?” Growled Bakugou. He looked so manly, without a hint of fear in his eyes.
“When he wakes up, he will be. taught a lesson by my partner.”
I looked closely at the figure. He looked different from the one before, as he had a mask unlike the other who just had a black hood.
A beeping noise came from somewhere and he held a hand up to his ear.
“Mhm, ok, I understand. Will she take my place? Ok, see you then.”
I was trying to hear what the other person was saying. Maybe that could help us get out of here.
” OK brats, I have something to take care of so my partner will play the games with y- “The figure got cut off with a screen of pain. I knew it was Deku as soon as I heard it.
“Well! he must’ve woken up. I think I have enough time to mess him up before I go.” The figure walked out of the room.
“DON’T TOUCH DEKU! “yelled Uraraka. Her eyes went from scared to furious.
The figure walked up to Uraraka. “DO NOT TOUCH HER!” Yelled Hagakure.
He lifted Uraraka by her hair while Deku’s muffled screams and begs came from the background.
“Make me,” he said, looking her in the eyes.
Ururaka looked close to tears just when Deku’s screams and begs stopped.
TW mention of blood.
“Hi! I took care of the kid!” said a girl. She had a hood but instead of black, it was hot pink and covered with splotches of blood.
“You didn’t kill him, right?” Asked the male figure.
” Nope, but I don’t think my level of physical torture will be enough!” she said with a sickeningly sweet tone and a... Round of giggles?
Sweat dripped down my back. I wanted to believe they were not talking about Deku, but I knew they were.
About everyone was asking questions or telling them not to hurt him. I was so worried, Deku is my friend and he might be breaking mentally or physically right this second!
“If you want me to, I guess I can if he does something stupid again.” Said the male figure. “You got this, right?”
“Of course!” Said the female.
“Ok, I will go. Have fun with them.” Said the male.
“Bye!” said the female. As he left, she turned to us. “Let’s play a game!
“The rules are that I will use my quirk, so then you all will be surrounded by darkness and can’t hear or see anything going on around you. I will pull someone out of the room and replace them with a copy of them that looks exactly like them, with no differences. You guys need to find out who it is and shoot them with this gun to kill them. But if you pick the wrong person, then not only will that person die, but so will the person I copied. The only twist is that the copy of them can kill anyone of you and knows anything that they would say or do.” She finished
” This is insane!” Said Jiro.
“I agree! You can’t just kidnap us out of nowhere and then expect us to turn against each other!” Said Kaminari.
“I kinda already did, otherwise you wouldn’t be here!” said the female figure.
Just then, I was surrounded by darkness.
Deku’s POV
I woke up with my hands tied by chains to the ceiling and my feet chained to the floor. All the memories of what happened came to me and I remember the figure’s cold voice saying I’d regret that.
Just then, a girl with a pink hoodie came in. She looked happy to see me, but I knew she was the one who kidnapped me.
“Where am I?” I said, trying to keep my voice strong and steady.
“Well,” she said and walked over to a table with knives and whips and all kinds of tools used for torture.
⚠️TRIGGER WARNING⚠️ (I will tell you when it’s over)
She grabbed a big knife. “I think we can start with this!” She walked over to me.
“DON’T TOUCH ME!” I yelled, trying to break free.
She smirked and stabbed the knife into my shoulder, bringing it down to my hand, and then used what looked like her quirk and made purple flames (Ok Dabi and Toga knockoff) and burned into the same area. I gritted my teeth in pain. Then she stabbed the knife into my chest and wrote the words: 闇に光を (It means light into darkness, a little cringe, but why not)
Then continued to cut and burn. I let out a blood-curdling scream. The pain was so intense that I couldn’t even breathe. After what seemed like an eternity of cutting and burning, my throat felt raw.
Then she grabbed my neck and choked me until I was about to die thanks to lack of oxygen and let go. She did it again and again.
She started to laugh. “I’m enjoying our time together Izuku!”
She grabbed a whip and then used her quirk to outline the whip into a purple glow.
I started to beg her not to do it.
“No, no, no! You don’t have to do this! You don’t want to do this!”
“Oh, but I do want to!” She grinned and swung the whip. The pain felt 10 times worse than what I felt before. It was like I was being burnt from the inside out. Then she used her quirk to make the whip pure fire. I was screaming, begging for her to stop.
“Your voice is getting annoying.” She said grabbed a gag and stuffed it in my mouth. She started to whip me again. I closed my eyes and prayed for this to be over. She grabbed my head and slammed it into the wall until I blacked out.
⚠️Trigger warning over⚠️
(You guys do not understand how many times when I said the word quirk, my autocorrect changed it into quirky).
