Your remaining eye glared harshly down at the cold ground, examing the shape of broken glass and the strange fluid you had been encased in. You knew who was standing a few steps away from you, watching you slowly as you found your strength slowly sapping back into your muscles, at least enough to pull yourself forward toward the table. 

All For One: Hmm... you wish for the eye?

You didn't respond, focusing on making it to the table before you forced yourself up enough to see the eye was missing. You twisted your body in a huff, allowing your body to sit down with your neck resting against the table as the large male knelt before you, carefully offering you the eye.

(Y/n): I don't know... how to put it back in.

All For One: We could always help you, though, by the caution on your face, I'll take that as a no. But I shall not keep it from you.

The man laced the eyeball in your palm before speaking once more.

All For One: Would you care for some food? Perhaps some clothing to be rid of the cold?

(Y/n): I don't understand why you're doing this... I didn't want this and I never wanted anything to do with villains.

All For One chuckled softly, reaching out his hand to ruffle your hair softly before you slapped it away.

All For One: Do not forget, I did not do this out of the kindness of my heart. I needed to a disciple that I could mold to my will. however, I chose you because you were the perfect specimen. A young male with infinite potential, squandered by your genetics and tossed aside by your classmates.

(Y/n): I was not! They care about me!

All For One: You don't have to lie to me (Y/n). You despised them. You held them in nothing but contempt except for that girl... Tsuyu, right?

(Y/n): How di-... Jack.

All For One: Indeed. Jack knows you inside and out, his eyes are my eyes and you can't hide the truth from me (Y/n). You despised everything around you except for the girl and your family, even your Quirk disgusted you. Well... now you're overpowered, a king in the making, a leader that can lead Japan from the shadows. Is this not what you desired for so long?

(Y/n): I never wanted any of that. Yes I hated the looks of pity I got from my classmates and I hated using my Quirk, knowing it would further injure my body... but that doesn't mean I wanted All For One... nor do I want to be a king of villains or whatever you are.

All for One nodded his head before offering his hand to you. You looked the male up and down before reluctantly taking it, not sure you would have the strength to get up yourself yet.

All For One: I know you didn't want this, but I think you can use this moment to change things. You will be the envy of your classmates. The heroes will take notice of you and your injuries will only happen when you let them. All you need to do is accept this gift of mine.

(Y/n): You're trying to get me to accept this gift rather quickly... let me guess...

You looked around a bit. 

(Y/n): The pro-heroes aren't just mobilizing... they're on the way?

All For One: You're no fool, child. You know as well as I do the heroes will be here and when I'm the only one left standing, you should heavily consider my offer. 

You gulped a bit. you could feel the paralyzing aura of the man bleed through his fatherly and comforting facade. He was manipulative, he knew that and you knew it, but in the end... was he wrong? If he was the only one left that means the heroes would be decimated. You could... join him... gah what the hell are you thinking? This was the villain and you were the hero... but... why did it feel so weird to say that... A gross tasted coated your tongue as you called yourself a hero. You were one, at least one in training at least. But All for One offered an alternative, not some random pro hero, but a ruler. A puppetmaster. you could finally be rid of your strings and take control of others. 

All For One: I also heard of another girl in your life. 

You broke away from your thoughts to look at the male. 

All For One: Himiko Toga. Much different from this "Tsuyu" of yours... but isn't that better? Himiko allowed you to feel like a person again, yes? Why no-

(Y/n): You can speak to me about a lot of things but leave them out of this. I... I don't need your romantic help, got it?

The male chuckled before walking away, beckoning you after him. You took a moment to look around once more, trying to find an exit, though the crippling darkness prevented you from getting a clear image. so for the moment, you followed after the male. 

All For One: Let's get you some clothing. Wouldn't want you running around it just your undergarments, though I do apologize if my sense of style isn't considered... "cool" or... "hip".

You hated how he tried to so casually speak with you. The manipulative feeling of every word crossed your mind easily, though you were not only in no shape to fight, let alone escape. so your only hope was to play along until the heroes arrived to save you...

Changing into the new clothes is when you first noticed it. You had been provided with a mirror to adjust yourself though you could now wallow at the sight of scars... everywhere. They trailed along your veins, every so often a tiny notch that may or may not fade, though your body was not saved either. In a few places, scars seemed to decorate you much like freckles, though the most prominent one was on your back, leading from the middle of your neck to just before your lower back before your spine. 

All For One: My apologies... your body did not respond to the transfer of DNA as we had hoped. The body tried to forcibly... eject the quirk and DNA and thus we had to... change things.

The male spoke from the other side of the door. Why he trusted you... you would never know. Well, maybe he didn't want to see a naked dude... makes sense.

All For One: Despite the damage, your body and Quirk responded well to the changes. The fluid that formed your Quirk is now improved, with greater depth and usage. Efficiency has doubled in your body and the All for One quirk has settled into your body peacefully now. In fact, it appears the Quirk has even improved the limitations of your body and mind. 

You mostly phased out the male's words, though you got the message he was conjuring. You were better, improved... "overpowered" as he said, though that was doubtful. The clothes you wore now were incredibly simple, nothing but simple slip-on shoes with comfortable pants. Your shirt was a simple tee as well, something you pick up anywhere. You kind of expected more from the villain but then again... what if this is a part of a larger plan? You scoffed at the thought before moving to the door and pulling it open to join the male. He quietly demanded you follow him and your legs followed in suit. You gulped a bit before feeling your heart drop at the sight of a tied-up individual. It seemed like such a sloppy job from a professional villain but he chose to elaborate.

All For One: I would have hoped this would be more significant a time, but we have... other associates to thank for the condition of this man. Worry not of his breathing, he is alive, though he will not remember this evening. And he will not remember... you obtaining his Quirk.

(Y/n): W-what?

All For One: you are much more suited for his Quirk. Take it as your own and wield it to better the world. Isn't that one of your goals?

(Y/n): This... this is wrong. He did nothing w-

All For One: That is the point. he has done nothing with his Quirk. He could have chosen to be a "hero" as many aspire to be but instead, he allows the world to crumble around him as the heroes guide him like a sheep. Show him the error of his hubris. Take his Quirk for yourself.

You glanced at the incapacitated male and then at your palm. W-Were... you really going to do this... his quirk was right for the taking, you could incorporate it into your body and allow your creations to improve. What would you call them... Mark II's? N-No what are you thinking. This is what he wants you to do. He's trying to get you to corrupt yourself. What should you do then? You mulled it over for a bit, looking intensely down at your palm before thinking of something. Yeah... you could do it... you lifted your hand and decided to rip it off like a band-aid, just do it and get it over with before you allowed your mind to cloud any further. Your hand shot forward with purpose.

Your hand smacked into the chest of All For One, trying to conjure up this new ability, though all it managed to do was cause the male to chuckle loudly. Then suddenly the male seemingly moved faster than your could blink, his palm engulfing your face as his fingers clenched tightly to your face. You gazed up at him with a shocked expression as he lifted you up by your face.

All For One: That was a smart move, though your lack of experience shines through. You need to take a firm grasp of your target, your fingers gripping their face like a vice as you take away the Quirk they don't deserve. I would do something similar to you, but I will allow only one mistake, this being it.

He allowed you to drop to the ground, catching your breath as he looked down at you. You took a slow breath and picked yourself up, feeling chills course through you as your only plan failed instantly. It was such a stupid idea... why did you even think of that... you ridiculed yourself as you stood before the male once more. You grit your teeth softly and dressed your hand forward.

All For One: It will come naturally to you, just feel the power course through your vein as you claim what is rightfully yours.

(Y/n): None of this is mine...

You closed your eyes softly and pressed your hand forward in time to feel your fingers clasp around his face, a strange sensation coursing through your fingers and wrist. 

A loud sound filled the complex as three heroes burst into the facility, looking for the Nomu's that had been the scourge of the heroes. However, as they found what they were looking for, something else caught their attention. A young boy shuffled forward, running as fast as he could as his head appeared to be ripped open. He managed to make it into the light generated by the moon and he looked up, one of his eyes missing while the other (E/c) iris was filled with terror.

(Y/n): P-Please... save me!

???: It's far too late for that.

The kid gasped and glanced back before a hand gripped the back of his throat. alerting the three heroes to the presence of... him.
