•°• Chapter 19 •°•
In the mirror world...
Third Person's POV
Haruka broke apart from Izuku who was breathing heavily. He gazed into her beautiful jade eyes deeply. 'If only I could choose my fate... I want to choose to be with you...' He thought, his soulless irises studied her hourglass figure.
Haruka moved to her ear again and licked her earlobe. Izuku tensed up at the burning sensation on her ear. She arched her back while thrashing under his weight. The heroine never stopped to try to use her Quirk, though deep inside she knew her effort was futile.
'Ugh... How... How can he seal my Quirk...? Did he use the Quirk-Destroyer bullets like Overhaul? But I wasn't shot by anything... I became unable to use my Quirk when he gripped my wrists...' A rush of realization hit her instantly. She looked up to her former sidekick in complete silence.
"What are you...looking at?" The female sobbed out. She was still saddened by this sudden revelation. Her heart was too fragile to face this arduous reality. Why did the spy had to be her beloved sidekick?
Haruka didn't answer her question. Instead, he pulled a knife out of his white suit pocket. "Haru.. What are you...!!!" Izuku was literally horrified by his unexpected action. Was he planning to murder her all this time?
"I'm going to take you." He whispered huskily into her ear. The female gasped in astonishment, understanding the hidden meaning behind his words. "No... No! Stop it! Let me go—"
All of a sudden, Haruka slashed her attire with the knife, tearing it to pieces. Izuku's upper half was fully exposed to the light blue-haired male. He pulled off the metal mask hanging on her neck before tossing it to somewhere else.
Haruka just stared down at his prey struggling underneath him. "Can you just stay still for a second? You are starting to annoy me." He leaned closer back to her neck before biting her skin roughly.
"Ugh... Argh!" Izuku whimpered loudly. His action was starting to get rougher than usual. 'I'm done... Holding back!!!!' Her eyes glowed bright green.
Haruka's eyes suddenly shot wide open. Izuku used this chance to kneel his stomach. The man coughed at the sudden pain shooting through his body. He got off of her body, clenching his belly in agony.
Izuku backed away from her former sidekick, her arms crossing over her exposed chest. "I don't know your intention, but I won't see you the same way anymore! You are clearly a villain, so I will do my job as my hero;" She paused there and declared loudly,
"I will defeat you and then save Mio-chan and Yana-san from your evil scheme!"
Haruka kept his gaze locked on his former mentor. His face darkened with hilarity, before he broke into laughter. "Yana-san? You are funny, Izuku-san." He spelt out while standing up back on his two feet.
"Well, since you didn't know, I will tell you the truth. YANA RIKITA IS DEAD!" He announced without pity, his dark eyes clouded with pure evil. "What... What... YOU LITTLE...!!!" Izuku rose up from her current position. Her eyes filled with nothing but hatred.
"Wow, you are that mad? Fortunately, it wasn't me who murdered Yana Rikita... But Toga." Haruka explained unenthusiastically. He hated that blood-obsessive woman.
'Toga is the murderer?! Wait...if I think it through...Now I get it! Toga had killed Yana-san and digested her blood, which then allowed her to turn into Yana-san. No wonder... She managed to kill Takumi-san and kidnapped Mio-chan from the inside!' Izuku gritted her teeth in devastation.
The pro hero shook her head and looked up to her arch enemy. "If that is so... Then I assumed you are the one who helped the League of Villains fled from Tartarus?" She asked huskily, directing a deadly glare at him.
"Hahahaha! You finally use your brain, Izuku-san! Indeed, I'm the one who helped my comrades! With my Quirk, I could easily sneak into Tartarus and freed them! Well, I'm the most outrageous villain after all!" He bragged arrogantly, eyes wide with insanity.
'Haru is no longer the Haru I knew. This guy... Is insane! I need to find a way out and leave this place... So I can help the others!' The greenette clenched her shaking palms into fists.
Izuku activated One For All throughout her body. 'I can use Quirk. At last! My theory is correct. In order to seal my Quirk, he has to touch me physically. ' her emerald eyes flickered, determination clouding her gaze.
"I see... You have admitted yourself as a villain... Then..." Black lightning suddenly emitted from Izuku's body, shocking Haruka who was too absorbed in his own world.
"Huh?!" The villain gasped in horror at this unpredictable sight. Various questions swirled his mind like typyoon.
'What the...?! I thought her Quirk was Super Strength! Did she have more than one Quirk, like me?!' Haruka was enraged. He was fooled by her. He was tricked, he was deceived.
Haruka Aozaki's second Quirk; Quirk Seal. He can seal a person's Quirk by making physical contact with them. This Quirk was given to him by All For One in the past.
Izuku's dark green curly hair floated in the air, as her eyes flashed bright turquoise. The black lightning gathered around her arms, before it formed into a large, long whip.
'I have no intention to fight you at all... But you left me with no choice!!!!!' Izuku swung her arms high in the air before the whip charged toward Haruka at the speed of lightning.
"Wait... No!!!" The male villain screamed. The whip restrained his body perfectly. The tie was so tight that it was so impossible for him to escape.
Izuku approached Haruka closer. Her stepped echoed in the mirror world, causing him to shudder on fear. 'Since when did... She learn to be so intimidating?!'
After a few seconds, the hero stood face-to-face with the villain. They both stared at each other's faces for what felt like eternity.
Tears began rolling down Izuku's cheeks when they made eye contact with her partner. She then cancelled her Quirk and surged forward to hug him.
Haruka was flabbergasted by her action. Izuku tightened the hug, not wanting to let him go. "You have...become part of my life. Even after you betrayed me, even after you hurt my feelings... I can't bring myself to hate you..." She confessed, tears of sorrow leaving her eyes.
"I...love you... Haru-kun. As a friend... As a co-worker... As a mentor... No matter how many times you hurt my feelings, I won't hate you. I will change you, even though it will take one hundred years. I will do anything... For your sake."
"But... I'm a villain... Why... You..." He was desperated to push her away, but his arms didn't cooperate with him today. He was too weak to lift them up.
"Villain or hero... Evil or good... None of that matter to me... Because... You are you, Haru-kun. Regardless your past and job, I will accept you." Izuku sobbed her heart out, her shoulders dropping in sadness.
"Izuku...san..." Haruka uttered shakily, his eyes trembling with realization. His soulless irises were filled with life again. Izuku's words had breathed in a strong will into his soul.
The male began to shed tears. His past memories flashed before his eyes. Every single sin, every single life he took away mercilessly, all his evil deeds... Everything came back flooding his mind like a wave of the ocean.
'I...want to change... I want to start over... But—"
"ARGH!!!!!!" Haruka screamed in extreme agony. Izuku immediately broke apart from him. "Haru? Haru, what's wrong?!" She urged, holding his shoulders to support him.
Haruka seemed like to be in unimaginable pain. His body was shaking, his eyes were widening with intense fear. 'Damn it...! I forgot about that..' A painful smile graced his pale feature.
Slowly, the man looked up to his former mentor. Crystal liquid would not stop falling from her eyes. "Haru.. What is happening to you...?" She sobbed, looking straight into his eyes. Haruka heaved a deep sigh.
"Hah, looks like I messed up... I forgot about that..." He said sarcasticslly, hand gripping tight the collar of his shirt. "What do you mean...?"
"In the past, All For One once casted a curse on me... Well, not really a curse... He used a Quirk called "Bind Words".... The user of this Quirk somehow can bind a curse-like order to their victim... It means I was binded with a curse that couldn't be broken by anyone else, except him." He said between his ragged breathing.
"What is... The curse?" Izuku asked in terror. She didn't want to hear it but she needed to figure it out.
"If I ever attempted to betray him... I will die a gruesome death... That is much more painful than my worst nightmare... ARGH!!!" He groaned in agony again.
"No... Don't! Don't give up! I promise to find a way to cancel this Quirk affect—"
"Izu...ku...san..." Haruka's shaking hand gripped her shoulder, mustering a small painful smile for her.
"Please... Take care of my little sister for me..." The dying man said hurtfully since he was on the verge of death.
"Haru... No! No! Don't leave me! Please—"
Before she could defy him, light radiated from her body... And soon her figure disappeared from his sight.
'Mio... I'm sorry... I'm not... A good big brother... Sorry for everything... I have done to you... Please... Live...'
Haruka fell down to the ground motionlessly, the shine in his eyes slowly faded.
"Ugh... Ngh... ARGH!!!!!!"
A terrifying groan escaped his mouth again...
Before he breathed for the last time.
