Chapter 1
"Go take a swan dive off a fucking building! Who knows? Maybe you'll get a quirk in your next life!" Katsuki said as he laughed. Izuku stood there as he watched him walk away, laughing and grinning. Yet Izuku knew that Katsuki was serious. As Izuku stood there, watching his friend walk away, he slowly reached for his burned and drowned notebook and whispered: "M-maybe I will," but when he looked up, Katsuki was gone and the only living things that could hear him were the fish in the water. Izuku frowned as he looked at his notebook and dried to dry it off.
Later:
Izuku stood on top of a building overlooking a high-way. His backpack on his back as he had tears in his eyes "T-this is it... this is the end," Izuku said as he took a step forward. He hesitated as he looked down at the highway. Taking a step back as he continued to cry, he took several deep breaths as he grabbed his hair and shook his head, "N-no, I have to do this! This world... it's done nothing for me! I quirkless, useless... useless, human being," Izuku said as he looked out again, "yet... what would mom think?". Izuku wondered as he thought about his mother. She was a kind-hearted woman who loved him no matter what. Gritting his teeth, Izuku tried to muffle his cries as he turned around "M-maybe I should just go ho-"
*BOOM*
"W-what th-AHHH!" Izuku shouted as the building shook and started to fall toward the highway. His eyes widened as the ground came closer and closer to his face 'T-this is it! This is the end! I-I'm going to die! B-but I wanted to live! WHY ME?!!!!' Izuku thought as the sound of crashing echoed in his ears. Izuku hit the ground with a crack as his body slammed against the asphalt of the highway. Izukus' world went black, but when he opened his eyes again, he looked to his right to see that there was a piece of metal blocking his vision and he couldn't feel his right arm. Turning his head, he looked over to see a man wearing a black cloak with red clouds on it. He was carrying someone over his shoulder as he walked across the high-way
"H-help... m-me," Izuku managed to say as the man stopped and looked at him
"You're alive?" he asked as he an impressed huff, "That's something... what's your name?"
"I-Izuku," Izuku replied
"Well, Izuku, I'm in a good mood at the moment. Seeing as you're dying, you've got two choices," the man said as he held up two fingers, "die here or work for me and live,"
"W-what kind of ch-choice is that?" Izuku asked
"Hurry up, brat, you're bleeding out," he replied. Izuku took a few seconds to think. His world slowed as he thought of the people who would miss him and those who wouldn't. Yet, he could only think of one thing... life. Izuku started crying as he opened his mouth and shouted: "I-I WANT TO LIVE!"
"Alright, brat, you didn't need to yell it," the man said as he walked over to Izuku. He picked Izuku up by the back of his collar as the ladder felt something tear. Izuku felt a few pounds lighter as the man dragged him away, leaving a trail of blood from Izuku's right shoulder "You owe me, brat," the man said as Izuku blacked out.
The Next Day:
Izuku woke up to see a concrete ceiling. A light blanket was on his body as he sat up and held his head "You're finally awake," said a voice as Izuku looked over to see the man that saved his life, reading his notebook
"W-where am I?" Izuku asked
"You're in my home," the man said, "you're... Izuku, right?"
"Y-yes?"
"Well, Izuku, I saved your life and reattached your arm. Which means, you owe me,"
"W-what?!" Izuku shouted as he looked at his arms. Moving both at the same time, his right arm felt off as he looked at his shoulder and saw black stitches "I-I really lost my arm?" Izuku asked
"Yeah, now hurry up and get off the guest bed, you've got a life debt to owe," the man said as Izuku quickly got out of bed and bowed
"THANK-YOU FOR SAVING ME!" Izuku shouted
"Yeah... sure. Fix the bed and meet me in the living room when you're done,"
"O-oh, right, w-what's your name?"
"Kakuzu," the man replied as he walked out of the room. When the door closed, Izuku started to have a panic attack as he started to hit himself, "Damn-it! What were you thinking?! Now you're gonna have to work the rest of your life to pay off your debt!!" Izuku said between every strike to his head. When Izuku was done hitting himself, he sighed as he cleaned the room and fixed the bed.
Later:
Izuku walked out of the room to see Kakuzu sitting on the couch counting money on a coffee table "20, 40, 60, 80... 200," Izuku could hear him mumble as Izuku could only flinch at the irony
"Wow, it's weird seeing this from the other side," Izuku said as Kakuzu stopped
"About time you're done," Kakuzu said as he set down a bundle of cash and tossed Izuku a duffle bag, "come on,"
"W-what's going on? W-where are we going?"
"Stop asking questions or else I'll kill you," Kakuzu threatened as Izuku shuttered. The green-haired boy stopped talking as he followed Kakuzu. They walked toward a door as Kakuzu opened it and made an immediate right turn. Izuku looked around to see concrete walls and a strangely carpeted floor. He continued to follow Kakuzu until they stopped at another door. Opening it, Kakuzu turned around and said: "Hand me the bag,"
"A-Alright," Izuku replied as he handed him it. Kakuzu took the bag in his hand and nodded, "Stay here," Kakuzu ordered, making Izuku nod. Izuku waited outside for a few minutes before Kakuzu came out, "Alright, brat, where do you live?" Kakuzu asked
"M-Musutafu A-Apartments," Izuku answered as Kakuzu put his hand on the boys shoulder and they vanished. Izuku and Kakuzu appeared next to the apartment building as Izuku's face when green and he vomited, "Get used to it, brat. It's gonna be happening a lot more often," Kakuzu said
"O-oka-BRAGH!"
"*Sigh* Hurry up," Kakuzu threatened. Izuku vomited one more time before he was done. He walked up the stairs with the cloaked-man behind him. Izuku soon found himself in front of his home as he gulped and knocked on the door "W-who is it?" a nervous voice said
"M-mom, I-I'm home," Izuku said as the door swung open to reveal Inko Midoriya, Izuku's mom. She had tears in her eyes as she saw her baby boy safe and sound "IZUKU!" she shouted as she jumped up and hugged him, "I was so worried! When they found your backpack at the highway I was terrified! What were you even doing there, young man? Scaring your mother like that! I have half-a-mind to spank you!" she cried. Izuku tried to calm her down, until Kakuzu coughed into his hand "Ma'am?" Kakuzu said as Inko looked up to see Kakuzu towering over her. She shook in fear as she grabbed Izuku and backed away "M-MOM! P-PUT ME D-DOWN!" Izuku pleaded as Inko cried
"W-WHO THE HELL IS THAT?!" Inko asked
"I-It's alright, mom, he saved my life!" Izuku explained
"W-What?"
"He saved my life, even reattached my arm, see?" Izuku stated as he showed her his stitches. Inko cried even harder as she said: "M-my baby boy lost his arm?! How could I've let this happen!? I'm a terrible mother!"
"Excuse me?! Can I speak?!" Kakuzu grunted as Inko looked at him, tears flowing down her face
"T-thank-you! Thank-you! Thank-you! Thank you!" Inko repeated over and over again
'Damn, what the hell is wrong with this family?' Kakuzu thought, "Ahem, I'll be picking-up your boy in the next 2 days, until then, goodbye," he said as he performed several weird hand-signs and turned into mud.
That Night:
"Man, it's been a weird last couple of days," Izuku said as he laid in bed, "not to mention that Kakuzu is going to come for me in the next few days... but what does he want with a quirkless boy like me?" Izuku wondered. He felt an itch on his arm as he went to scratch it. But when he went to scratch, the feeling moved. Going to scratch again, the feeling moved, again. This repeated a few times until Izuku felt his arm start to twitch. He raised an eye-brow to this as the twitching started to become violent until his whole right-arm was shaking "W-what's happening!?" Izuku shouted "MOM! MOM! SOMETHING'S WRONG MY ARM!"
"WHAT'S WRONG?!" Inko shouted as she burst into the room
"M-My arm! S-something-AHHH!" Izuku shouted as black strings erupted from Izuku's shoulder, causing him to scream in pain.
"AHHHHH!"
"AHHHHHH!"
[Yeah, sorry if this first chapter sucked, but hey, this was an idea that I wanted out there, so... sorry if it was dark, but if you did enjoy it, just say so, otherwise, feel free to curse at me so much that a sailor would blush]
