Four days before the festival

Something was off and Midoriya didn't like it.

When he walked into the classroom, everyone was quiet and the room felt tense as if everyone was uneasy.

Was it because they felt bad for letting me get kidnapped?

As if sensing Izuku's confusion, Uraraka stood up and awkwardly made her way to him. "hey Deku!"

Her voice sounded off as if she was forcing it to sound cheery.

"hey Uraraka...is..is everyone ok?

The shorter girl tensed up before softly nodding "yea, they just feel a little bad about you being taken"

Midoriya nodded in understanding saying a quiet 'oh' and walked to his desk.

The only one who seemed to act normally was his teacher. The change in attitude really threw off the young villain as he glanced around the room.

Once school ended, Izuku quietly made his way home since Uraraka had plans after school with a few of the students.

Home wasn't even better. It was also filled with tense energy that almost knocked deku off his feet once he walked in.

"Izuku, you'd tell me if anything was wrong right?" Inko asked her son quietly as she set up the dinner table.

"of course mom, why wouldn't I"

Inko didn't seem satisfied with the answer but didn't say anything else.

Three days until the festival

No one was talking. No one even dared to look up what was even weirder, Uraraka pretended not to notice Midoriya walking in the room.

"Hey guys" Midoriya waved at the class which seemed to make everything worse.

Kirishima bit his lip and averted his eyes down to his desk. Kaminari suddenly nudged Jiro and tried to talk to her causing Mina to butt in. The rest of the class attempted to avoid him except for Bakugo who glared at him and let out a threatening snort before looking away again.

"Todoroki? What's wrong with everyone?"

Todoroki just tended up barely glancing Midoriya's way "it's nothing, the class is about to start"

And as if on cue, Aizawa walked into the class.

"Midoriya sit down" Deku jumped at spun around to meet Aizawa muttering a quick 'sorry' and walked to his desk so Aizawa could start the day

Two days until the sports festival

Deku hated it. The tension was almost suffocating. Something was up, and one thing popped up in his mind that he didn't like.

Deku didn't even try to talk to anyone as he walked to his desk.

While Aizawa was teaching the class, Midoriya watched every student and noted how tense everyone was. If they made eye contact with him, they would shift awkwardly and quickly avert their gaze to their desk or the teacher as if it was the most interesting thing in the world.

They knew.

The day Midoriya returned

The whole class was anxious as they excitedly talked among each other about the return of their green-haired friend.

"I have some important knew to say" everyone hushed down one by one as they turned to their teachers with relived and happy smiles, of course, they didn't last long after what their teacher had to say.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you guys this sooner" he sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Midoriya Izuku is not who you think he is"

There were confused comments and questions that the students began to speak before the teacher spoke up.

"your classmate, Izuku Midoriya, is a villain"

One day until the sports festival.

Deku stared at his teacher as he taught them their lesson about hero laws and safety. There was something he wanted to try.

Izuku glanced around the class making sure no one was watching before attempting to activate his quirk. Aizawa turned around at the same moment he tried to form his dice, and as expected, his hair slightly rose as his eyes shined a bright red.

The gig was up

"Midoriya, you will not be able to attend the festival due to some...complications"

With that, Deku slammed his hand on the table and immediately stood up causing the whole class to jump in a unison.

"how long have you know?" he asked slightly tilting his head at the teacher.

Aizawa kept his unreadable expression as he sighed

"since the first day. I thought that is was a coincidence that you had the same quirk as "The Dicer", but then I saw your fighting moves and how yours matched with said villain" Aizawa explained.

Deku quietly listened mentally kicking himself for being too careless.

"then when you were being interviewed by the news, someone recognized you through your not-so-subtle attempts and keeping yourself hidden and called us right away even sending side by side pictures"

Deku quietly growled at that, he shouldn't have answered those reporters.

"and when the villains kidnapped you, you didn't fight back even though you had a strong enough quirk to take them one on one" Aizawa finished keeping his eyes on the frustrated villain.

"then why didn't you say anything on the first day? Why keep me here if I was a big threat?" Deku growled clearly pissed that he got found out so fast and had to be told about this.

"to watch you. While you were here, the dicer suddenly stops attacking, and when you were 'kidnapped' he strikes again. Also, All Might thought that being around other heroes would change you. Looks like he was wrong."

Deku let out a forced laugh at the last sentence. "what about the class? When did they find out?"

"when you were in recovery girl's office"

Deku quietly nodded before sighing and running two desks next to him dodging Sero and grabbing Kirishima who let out a startled shout.

Deku then grabbed a small switchblade and held it at his neck causing him to activate his quirk in defense.

Bakugo let out a cocky laugh and raised a brow at Deku "you really thought holding Kirishima as a hostage would go your way? Good luck hurting him with that small thing"

Deku grinned and slowly dragged at the struggling student to the door. "did you think that I just stayed at U.A and not gain any information on you guys?" he laughed in a mocking tone

"sure he has a hardening quirk, but there has to be exposed parts to let him move"

To show the class what he means, he kicked the back or Kirishima's knees causing them to buckle and the exposed part of his neck to scrape against the blade.

The whole class moved to attack, but Deku moved faster and pushed the knife closer to his throat

"move any closer and he won't live long enough to see recovery girl" he spat out causing everyone to stop in their tracks and Kirishima shut his eyes as he let out a small whine.

"Midoriya let him go, the other heroes have been notified and are on their way" Aizawa warmed from where he stood.

Deku kept his grin unfazed by the threat "they would've been here by now"

"don't worry, I wouldn't want to hurt a classmate for no reason, and also, don't call me Midoriya anymore. I go by Deku now. And the green bunny-like costume? I kind of like it" he shrugged "I might keep it instead of the annoying suit.

Everyone except Deku was on edge unsure of what to do as he talked as if he was having a normal conversation.

"before I leave" Deku looked over at the dual haired teen. "Todoroki, join me" he smiled reaching out a hand.

Todoroki was taken aback by the request "what?"

"come on! You've been hurt by the number two hero, but for some reason, you still want to be one? Are you trying to be a hero for you or is it what your dad wanted?"

Todoroki felt the eyes of his classmates fall onto him waiting and watching for his answer.

"No"

Deku frowned "no?"

"I won't be a villain. I'm becoming a hero because I want to. I'm becoming a hero in honor of someone dear to me and I'd rather die than join someone like you!"

Deku growled clearly not expecting this answer. Of course, things wouldn't go his way so easily.

"fine" he forced through gritted teeth. "that's your choice, but the door is always open for you" he winked and removed his knife from Kirishima's throat to the red head's relief, and he deactivated this quirk assuming that the worst was over.

Boy was he wrong.

"Now, don't want y'all to forget about me too fast huh?"

He purred before bringing the blade down into Kirishima's arm earning a cry from him and alarmed shouts from others. "You can keep the knife, I have better ones at home" he giggled and ran out the room activating his quirk once he was out of Aizawa's sight

Level eight teleportation

With that, he jumped out the window (to look cooler) and teleported himself safely onto the ground before using it again to get away fromt the school before the heroes could actually be alerted.

Well, there goes my chances of getting into the sports festival.
