Not as bad as I thought

I ran my finger along the edge of my glass cups slowly and tried not to feel guilty about the deal I had made the day before. If I didn't accept it I would have been dead, so I had no other choice right? Or maybe I was just to weak and I should have tried harder.

It all started yesterday when I was walking home from a busy day of hero work. I wasn't in the top ten but I still had a ranking and that was mostly cause I had never lost a battle...until now.

I was ambushed by four villains who made quick work of me. The first being a tall man with black hair and a blue fire quirk. His height and training experience made him a difficult opponent.

The second was the only girl, she had blonde hair tied up into two buns on her head and she held a knife with dried blood clinging to it's sharp edges. I never saw what her quirk was but I assumed it was nothing good.

The third was a man who seemed to be shrouded in purple smoke or even made of the vapors. He brought with him the last villain who had made the offer. His name was Tomura Shigaraki and he had scratches marking his neck. His lips were dry and cracked while his hair was a oily light blue mess. Hands covered different parts of him like some type of horror movie and for once in my life I was absolutely terrified.

"Hellooo (y/n). I hear you have been a great hero and I need someone like you ooon my team. You can say no all you want but if you do.." His voice was deep and hoarse like he had been yelling loudly for hours. At the end of his sentence he gestured to the man with black hair who grabbed my arm and pushed my face close to his blue flames.

With my heart racing and my mind leaving no other option I agreed to work for them. So now here I was, sitting in the dingy bar they hid in with the last remnants of my drink swirling around the bottom of my glass.

I looked up when Shigaraki tapped my shoulder and sat next to me. He was smiling like a creep and it made me feel uncomfortable as I waited for him to speak. "You know (y/n) this isn't as bad as you think it is. We could be really great friends if you want."

I scoffed at the ridiculous notion and stood up to go to my room though it was actually more of a prison I couldn't escape from. I wasn't just gonna sit there and listen to him make himself feel better about being a horrid excuse of a person. "How about you go fuck yourself asshole."

I started to walk away but a firm hand grabbed my wrist and pulled me close. I was inches away from Shigarakis face and even though his nails dug into my skin I felt a rush of excitement. I...almost wanted to kiss him but I didn't dare.

"All I have to do is put my pinky down and you will be nothing but dust. I suggest you be nicer to me (y/n), after all Kurogiri just swept."

I shivered in fear or maybe a different feeling I didn't even recognize, but I couldn't pull away. He kissed my forehead and let go of me returning to the same chair he had sat in before. If things kept going like this I had no idea what was going to happen.

The end
