Chapter Text

-In the rubble-

I slowly open my eyes, with excruciating pain. My arm and leg are both out of commission. What do I do? Panic racing in my mind. Everyone? Where are they? What happened? The only thing I could remember was- "Shigaraki" I bitterly mutter. How...?

Am I...the last hope. But why. Why is everyone down? What happened while I was knocked out? 'HOW did I let myself get-' tears run down and I scrunch up my face. "Why did I fail...?". Looking around, all I see are the lying bodies. Citizens, villains, and teachers. My friends...gone.

Footsteps getting closer. I glance up. "Shi-shigaraki...?" My voice shakes. His hand slowly reaches out, a sinister smile grew on his face. Manic laughter slipping through. "Oh poor sweet Izuku", he laughs maniacally. "Say goodbye".

No word could escape me. I shake. shake. shake. Panic. Twitch. 'Why me?'. Slowly everything fading to black. All is left behind is the manic laughter ringing in my ears.

...
...
"I-"
...
"Izu-! He-!! -one!". 'Huh...? what is happening?'.

"Oh my god! Izuku! Are you okay? How did this happen to you?"

"M-mum...?", I mutter. My eyes open wide, adjusting to the bright light above me. "Mum? What happened?".

"Oh Izuku, how did this happen to you? You've got to be more careful when crossing the road".

'The road...? What about the fight? What does she mean?' I can't hear any of the previous users of OFA. "Mum? I'm confused. What about the fight? Did...did we win? Is everyone alright?", Tears flow down my face. But she looks confused?

"How hard did you hit your head, Izu?", She looks so concerned. My eyes adjust more, and I realise mum looks different? She looks younger. What's happened? "Izu, dear let's get you home, okay?".
