The story begins with Akatani and Toga staring at each other.

Toga: So... why did you help me?

Akatani sighed a bit as he spoke.

Akatani: Because I know what it's like to suffer in this world because of something you have no control of.

Toga looked into his eyes as if trying to find any form of deceit or lie. But found none and decided to listen.

Akatani began to tell his life before he found the mask. How he was a young bright boy who wanted to be a hero like All Might. Till his life changed after discovering he was quirkless, to going through 6 long years of abuse and neglect.

Toga felt bad for Akatani. She knew what it was like to be abused and neglected as her parents and friends slowly changed due to her quirk. Many thought that she was mentally ill but it was only a side effect of her quirk. But what he went through was something short of pure torture.

Even a serial killer would feel bad if someone had went through all that.

After he explained his story he asked for Togas, as she explained to him her life.

Afterwards he didn't say anything but nod his head.

Akatani: I want to ask you something....would you like to join me?

Toga: Join you?
She asked confused.

Akatani: Join me in the fun. Honestly it gets lonely after several years of training and fighting. And I can help you in more ways then you think.

Toga: Like what?
She asked cautiously.

Akatani: I can fix the side effects of your quirk. I can train you to be stronger, faster, even more deadlier than other killers out there. But all I ask is that you join me on my journey.

Toga: What is your goal exactly?

Akatani: I don't really have a major one at the moment. But my current one right now is to kill All Might.

Toga didn't say anything. She was thinking about the good and the bad things about accepting his offer. I mean it's not like she had anywhere else to go. Especially since her old friends and family basically left her for dead.

Toga: I accept.

Akatani: Good. But I'll have to train you before you can get in on the action. And since the UA entrance exams are in several months that gives us plenty of time.

Back at the Yagi house Izumi is seen getting ready for bed but she got a text from some of the group chat she and her friends made.

She looked and saw that they were talking about the new villain by the name of Malakai. The villain always creeped her out a bit but for some odd reason she felt like she has seen him from somewhere but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Katsuki was ranting in the chat how he would find this villain and beat him to a pulp. Though thankfully she and a few others don't have to wear their quirk canceling bracelets.

Her father has been putting her through the ringer with helping her train her quirk and OFA. She had to clean up the beach to help build up some muscle. And right now the most use out of OFA was that she could use at least 10 percent without harming herself.

Though as of late the entire group minus Koda have been having nightmares. Very vivid and realistic nightmares.

Some of them are her being chased by some monstrous creature and being ripped apart. There are others where it's Izuku who would kill them in the most slow and painful ways possible.

Others were when Izuku would run from her and she would have to face a monstrous creature. There have been times where she couldn't even get a good night's sleep because of them.

Momo was feeling the worst as she and a few others couldn't even keep themselves awake during the day.

She went to sleep as she closed her eyes but then as soon as she opened them she found herself in some desolate winter forest.

Izumi: Hello!?

???: Why did you do it?

She turned around to see a little boy who looked to have green hair. She also noticed that he had green eyes as well and was covered in bandages and bruises. Some spots on the bandages looked to have bloches of blood then she immediately recognized who it was....

Izumi: Izuku....

She said as she stepped forward until he screamed and ran away deeper into the forest.

Izumi: Izuku!!!

She yelled as she chased after him.

Izuku: Leave me alone!!!

Izumi: Please I just want to talk!!!

Izuku: Leave me alone!! You'll only hurt me more!!!

Izumi: I won't I promise!!!

She yelled as she was still after him. He turned around as she followed only to be face to face with a monstrosity unlike anything she's ever seen.

Izumi screamed getting it's attention. As it began to sprint after her. She ran for her dear life as it roared at her though it sounded very distorted.

Izumi kept running until she hid herself in a cave. She made her way a bit deeper hoping the monster doesn't find her. She was about to leave until she heard a sound, it sounded like....crying.

She made her way deeper into the cave as she saw Izuku weeping on the floor surrounded by candles that lit the area around him.

Izumi: Izuku!!

Izuku looked at her and panicked as he moved to the corner and rolled himself into the fetal position.

Izuku: Please just leave me be!!!
He said in a scared and terrified tone.

Izumi: Izuku....

She said in a heartbroken tone. She never wanted any of this....she just wanted to keep her brother safe from the world itself. She just wanted to make sure that he was safe. But now he looked at her with pure terror and fear.

She was reaching out to him as her hand was suddenly grabbed and was forced to turn around as she saw a different monster than the one from before.

Monster: You're not supposed to be here!! You and your family will suffer!! Just like your friends!!!

The creature drew his claws as it slashed at her face.

She woke up in a fright only to find herself in some chair with a glass box around her head.

(Imagine it's Izumi)

She looked around to see that she was wearing a quirk canceling bracelet around her wrists. And she noticed two large jugs filled with water.

Izumi: Hello!?

She noticed a tape recorder strapped to her hand she pressed play and the water began to pour in.

Recorder: Hello Izumi Yagi, you may know me as Malakai. And the reason why you're here right now is because I want to play a little game with you. You see in less than several minutes your dear mother and father will come bursting through that door to come to your rescue. But the real question is, can you survive until they come to your rescue? Live or die Izumi Yagi, the choice is yours....

Izumi: Fuck you!!

After a few minutes the box was filled as she was struggling greatly while trying to break the box. But it was impossible due to the quirk canceling bracelets.

She was starting to lose her breath as her vision was fading a bit. Until she saw him, Malakai appearing right in front of her face.

She tried to strike but he was just out of reach for her arms and legs. He made shushing motion with his hand as he hid himself among the darkness of the room.

Her banging became more erratic, desperately wanting to claw her way to freedom from the clutches of death. Much to her relief and horror her parents came bursting through the door.

Inko: Izumi!!!

They were making their way over to her as she was trying to warm them about who was behind them.

(Imagine the guy in front as All Might)

All Might froze as he looked down to see a hand piercing through his chest. He looked behind only for his neck to be ripped open by Malakai.

Inko was about to attack but Malakai somehow appeared behind her as he gently touched her head and then violently twisted it so she was facing backwards. She fell to her knees as she vomited a bit of blood only to fall to the floor dead.

Malakai walked over to Izumi and wrapped his hand around her neck and began to squeeze.

Malakai: This is how you and your family will die, dear Izumi....

He said before he squeezed her hard enough to close her windpipe causing her to suffocate and drown in the water.

Izumi woke up screaming in pure terror and fear as she looked around her room for signs of Malakai as she was beginning to hyperventilate.

She heard the sound of loud thumping and it was her parents that rushed over to see what was wrong with their own daughter.

Inko: Izumi!!

She rushed over and hugged her daughter tightly as Izumi was hyperventilating.

Inko: Deep breath Izumi, deep Breath....you're ok.

Izumi: Izuku....you guys....are alive...
She whimpered.

Toshinori: What about Izuku?

Izumi: He's out there....scared, alone, I saw him...I saw you guys were killed infront of me....by Malakai.

Inko: Sweety it was just a nightmare, ok? Do you want us to stay?

Izumi: N-no...I'm sorry for waking you guys.

Inko: Alright, but if something happens you can always come to us. Ok?

Izumi nodded as her parents hugged her wishing her good night.

Though sadly for her, her nightmares may end up becoming a reality soon and that's what scared her the most.
