Royal Lethality

Hell

...

"I suppose that's enough of the beasts domain"
Kurogiri sighed as he dragged Midoriya out.
He, Izuku, stared surprised.
He knew for a fact it hadn't been an hour and there wasn't any good reason to be merciful to him.

"We can't allow you to die, not yet.
And seeing how you are after only 7 minutes, it's obvious you wouldn't survive the hour."
Kurogiri mocked as he warp gated him to his dungeon room.

Izuku let out a pained wheeze as he felt his broken ribs poke his lungs.
His head throbbed in pain as did his shoulder, stomach, and every cell in his body.

Water dripped off his hair and clothes as the cement floor beneath him became wet.

"Can't die "yet" huh...
Then why throw me in there!? I hardly survived, I survived with luck...!

...it's strange that I don't have quirk cancellers on.
There's no way they know I can't use my quirk. while it was exposed at school, word doesn't spread that fast.
It takes at least a couple weeks.

Unless there's someone that immediately told...
That's not good...

...they didn't see me use a quirk while in the beasts domain...

So that's why they threw me in there, confirmation...

And I gave them all the confirmation they needed.
Now I'm really in danger, I need to escape.

...what do I do...
It's only going to get worst past this, it's not like they brought me here to play games.
Just by having me captive here, they've already gained a trump card against the empire.

...
Unless
...

They make Kacchan the new crown prince and cast me aside.

... No....
They can't do that.... right...?

They wouldn't right...?
Mother wouldn't allow it...

...unless I'm declared as dead...

No... They won't do that...
Right...

Father doesn't like me but... He wouldn't throw me away like this...
No... He wouldn't... Right...?

And Kacchan... He wouldn't just let me die...
We might not be on best terms but I'm still his only brother...
He wouldn't...

I...

...
I'm not sure anymore...

In politics, family doesn't matter...
Especially when it comes to powerful positions such as mine.

But mother wouldn't abandon me...!
She cares about me, she wouldn't let father and Kacchan cast me aside..."
seeds of fear sprouted in Izuku, causing cracks to form in the image he had of his already problematic family.

All the pain was too much to bare, his mind could only go to negative possibilities.

Izuku slowly shut his eyes, he needed a break from all that was suddenly happening to him and this was the only solution he could come up with.

The pain made it difficult to fall asleep but he eventually did.

"Getting through the beast filled border will be difficult.
And not all of you will make it out alive. So do any disloyal soldiers want to leave cowardly now before we go to rescue the crown prince?"
Endeavor hissed as he glared at them all.
