Emotionless Deku

moving forward

Izuku wasn't sure how long he spent on the cold floor, he just knew that everything hurt, he wanted it all to go away, all the hurt and pain, he wanted to sleep and never wake up

Izuku felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up wishing it would be Toshinori

First: Ninth... I'm sorry but-

Izuku: shut up, leave me be

The second appeared and looked very displeased

Second: listen kid you're not the only one to lose people! But did that ever stop us? No! Look at us! We all lost something! Someone!

Izuku: take another look at yourself, you're at least in your mid-twenties, all of you died before the age of thirty. I'm just expected to not care about the people who die around me. Just because I'm younger?

Second: that's not what I meant-

Izuku: but that's what it sounds like,

Second: he took my family, my wife, and my unborn child! Don't you understand! I want to see him dead!

Izuku: he took everything I've ever had, I'm just sick and tired of this, it's not about fear or even sadness, I'm tired... Toshi said it best. Sleep sounds amazing right now, except I can't sleep because a hundred-year-old man won't shut up about me moving

The first put his arm around his successor and had a look of sorrow

First: he's been through a lot, give him time to grieve

Second: he can grieve when All for one is dead

Izuku: have you grieved? All you have is anger, that's all I hear. Are you even sad? Sad about those you lost

Second: yes... I mean, of course, I am! I wasn't given the same luxury you have! The luxury of grief but-

Izuku: then shut up, a moment of silence for your loved ones

First: Izuku that's enough-

Izuku: where's Toshi? Let me speak to him

First: Im afraid that... He's not here

Izuku: bullshit, the yellow husk that's him

First: Izuku... People's consciousness is a part of their quirks, at least we are-

Izuku: yeah and he has one for all longer than anyone, so where is he?

Second: don't you understand kid? The first had his ability to pass down, I had gear shift, and it goes on! We all had a quirk of our own! Even you with the ability to have more than one, but Toshinori? He had nothing. That husk is the result of him having one for all for so damn long

Izuku: so he's gone? I can never talk to him again?

First: it's not that... You just won't ever get a response

Izuku turned away from them and sighed

Second: kid, please-

Izuku: was I really the right choice?

First: what?

Izuku: I'm too connected to this, it hurts too much

Nana appeared in front of Izuku with a saddened expression

Nana: what do you mean bunny?

Izuku: that, my grandmother had one for all, my cousin currently has all for one, my parents died for the secret of one for all, my quirks were taken in hopes that I would receive this quirk

Nana: it's not like you chose any of that-

Izuku: okay, but what about everyone else? Every villain, every person I know or meet on this path I have some sort of history with them. Then it leads to pain... Death
