Old Memories

"Hey, Twice. You do it." Dabi ordered Twice to released the cuffs covering Bakugo's hand.

"Sure thing!" At first he was okay with it, but then his personality switched, "No way." Even though they had only known each other for a short time, the League was already used to Twice and his switching personality.

"Do it." Like always, Dabi stood his ground and sounded cold. He acted like he owned the place, but no one really cared for it.

"Aw man!" Twice was disappointed, but followed his orders as he walked over to release Bakugo's hands.

Mr Compress wanted to speak, but noticed Deku putting almost all his focus on Bakugo's hand like he knew something was about to happen. Deku knew exactly what was going to happen as he slowly prepared his super strength quirk The metal block was taken off Bakugo's hands, and the first thing Bakugo did was reach out for the head of Twice to use his explosive quirk.

A gust of wind had followed after Deku caught Bakugo's wrist with a childish expression, keeping Twice behind him to he stays safe.

"Nice try, Bakugo." Deku leaned in and stared straight into Bakugo's eyes. They were so close to each other that they could feel each others breath, "We brought you here to give you a peaceful offer, not to fight."

Deku's voice was unsettling for Bakugo, as well as Twice, Magne and Spinner. Both his facial expression and voice was unnatural coming from Deku, but it showed his feelings as clear as day.

"Personally, I can't wait to chop you up!" The thought of cutting each limb of Bakugo's body excited Deku as he let go of Bakugo's wrist, letting both hands drop in front of his body.

Behind Deku's excitement was concern. The time it took to take Bakugo away from the hero's was way to quick, and even though Deku had waited on the cliff edge for a fair amount of time, it still didn't add up.

That was when the idea came to him.

"Oh, I finally get it now." Deku's voice went from joyful to cold as he put his left hand down Bakugo's right pocket and pulled out a device, "So they used you as bait... so much for being hero's."

The device Deku pulled out was a small tracking device, one that was a little smaller than a phone, and one that he smashed in just one hand.

"So the pro hero's know where we are." Shigaraki stood up from his stool after staying quiet through the whole consultation.

"Its fine, we'll just have to get it over a done with." Deku took a few steps back as Toga joined his side, standing in front of the rest of the League, "Out offer is simple, though its one that I don't like. Join us, become a member of the League of Villains." Deku put both his arms up like he was presenting his team to Bakugo.

"As if I would join your shit show." Bakugo declined the offer, which made Deku happy.

"I was hoping you'd say that." The usual psychotic smile came over Deku's face as he put his arms back down and approached Bakugo. Deku's presence was unnerving as he put his hands on Bakugo's throat and whispered in his ear, "Now I get to chop you up into little pieces. I think you're gonna look cute."

Hearing those words made Bakugo's mind go blank, made him lightheaded and scared. Just the idea of being killed in such a way, and by Deku of all people.

Deku was just about to make his move as he used his quirk to pull out eight knives that slowly crawled out from under his blazer, then shooting them at Bakugo's limbs until Kurogiri stopped Deku.

"Deku, you should begin your plan now." Kurogiri lifted his hand to present a portal. A sigh of disappointment from Deku was also a sign of agreement.

Deku returned the knives into his blazer as he slowly walked towards the portal.

"See you soon, Bakugo." Deku's voice sounded menacing until he turned his attention towards Toga, "And I'll see you soon, too. Bye guys!" When talking to the League, his voice sounded joyful, showing both sides of Deku.

After saying his goodbyes, Deku finally walked through the portal and arrived at the laboratory with not a happy expression, but an irritated one.

There was something he couldn't get his mind off throughout the entire time he was around Bakugo. Thoughts of his past, the times he was kicked down, the people who would bully him. They were all flashing in Deku's head in that one moment, and they didn't stop even when he left.

Deku fell backwards, where his back would hit the wall and his body would fall to the ground. He just sat their, hands grabbing his hair as he begged for the thoughts to get out of his head.

Without Toga there, nothing could keep him calm. He thought he had solved the issue of his memories, but they still came to haunt him. Hearing the voice of the doctor, the insults of Bakugo and the empty words given to him by his teachers. Deku hated it all.

Then, just as Deku's breathing quickened, a familiar voice came from in front. A voice he knew from his past, and one he knew as a villain. The two voices matched each other, causing Deku to look up and intensely stare at the doctor known as Kyudai Garaki.

"Are you alright, Deku?" His voice sounded concerned, worried for Deku as he got closer and closer.

"You." Deku's voice was filled with pain, anger and the intent to murder as he spoke his thoughts, "You remind me of a doctor I really don't like. You called me quirkless."

The moment Deku stood up, Garaki took a step back.

"N-No, you're mistaken! I'm not the doctor that called you quirkless!" Garaki desperately tried to defend himself. A cold sweat came down the side of Garaki's face as his body tensed up and prepared to run.

"Is that so? Or is this just your fucking facade?" Deku's voice was still filled with pain, anger and the intent to murder, but was colder than before, "Fine, but the moment I find out you're lying to me, don't expect me to be so kind."

Deku walked past Garaki with a blank expression in an attempt to push aside his wish to kill the doctor.

"How long do you intend to keep this from your dear girlfriend?" Garaki sounded proud of his comment, a comment he intended to be an insult. This was his big mistake during the conversation.

Deku took a machete out with his left hand and put the blade to the doctors neck, where the coldness of the blade had almost cut him. Just one strike would be enough to cut the head off Garaki's shoulders, but before Deku could even say a word, his Master interrupted as he appeared next to Deku.

"I can't have you killing our doctor, he's too valuable, Deku." Deku's breathing became heavier and his anger became harder to contain. Despite being given his orders from All For One, Deku didn't move the blade.

All For One took Deku's wrist and slowly moved it so that the blade would distance itself from Garaki's tense neck.

"You should follow orders when you are given them." All For One sounded angry, but not angry enough to give Deku a punishment, "I understand that Kyudai made you angry with his unnecessary comments, but we need him."

Deku calmed himself down, putting the machete back into its scabbard and turned around to bow in front of his Master.

"Sorry, Master. I should be controlling my anger, not acting on it." Deku apologized, and for once was genuinely serious. All For One put his hand on top of Deku's head and lightly patted it before returning to where he had come from.

Deku looked back at Garaki with a murderous stare, but Deku knew he needed to continue with his plan.

"Garaki, show me where the fight will take place." Garaki was the one who knew where they were best as Deku had always entered the laboratory through Kurogiri's portals, meaning he had no idea where he was on the map.

In fact, the only place Deku had been in the laboratory was the place that they examined the Nomu and the room that observed the Nomu examination room. Deku was yet to see the room where the Nomu were created.

Just as Garaki wiped the seat off his forehead, a loud crash came from the front of the building.

--Two Days Earlier--

"I have an idea, though it is risky." Yaoyorozu spoke up the moment she thought of an idea to confront Deku, "If All Might says that the League will target Bakugo next, then we could use him as bait."

The whole class was shocked, as well as All Might, not including Aizawa.

"What!? We can't do that!" Kirishima was the first to defend Bakugo, who was too stuck in his own thoughts to even give his response.

"Kirishima is right, we can't risk it. They may choose to kill him instead of recruit him." All Might backed up Kirishima's defence, "Though I cannot deny it is our best plan so far. Young Bakugo, I think its only right for you to decide if we follow this plan."

All Might passed the decision onto Bakugo. Until Yaoyorozu gave her thoughts, they barely even had a plan, and what they did have had a small chance of success.

"Lets do it." Bakugo agreed to go through with Yaoyorozu's idea, shocking the class even more.

"Are you sure about this, Bakugo?" Iida wanted to make sure Bakugo was absolutely okay with being the bait, and with a simple not of Bakugo's head, Iida's question was answered and Yaoyorozu expanded on her idea.

"Right, so we let the League attack the training camp and capture Bakugo. Before that, we will give Bakugo a tracker which will then help us locate the villains hideout." The plan sounded perfect, almost too perfect.

All Might thought about it and confirmed that the plan had a high chance of success, complimenting Yaoyorozu's smart mind in his head.

"From what we have seen, there are seven members of the League. Two are similar to the Nomu, and those three have been captured." The hero team was yet to discover that the Nomu's were creatures more than human, so Aizawa counted them as "members of the League".

"The ones we are yet to arrest are as followed: Tomura Shigaraki, Kurogiri, Toga Himiko and Izuku Midoriya." The last name All Might spoke of put the class on edge, as hearing his name be listed with dangerous villains even though he was once a friend made them uncomfortable and gave them the hope that they could save him.

"You have already seen what their quirks can do besides Toga. From the information we have, Toga's quirk is not dangerous, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be careful around her." Aizawa finished the explanation of what they knew of the League.

What they didn't know at the time was the extent of Deku's powers and that the League of Villains had recruited new members as they planned their attack.

They thought everything would be perfect, that their plan was full proof, one that the League wouldn't be able to think of.

Deku was set to be arrested in no time, and it was going to be in prison that All Might and the others would try to heal him. They thought of everything they could possibly do to bring Deku back, but they didn't know if it would be enough.

They didn't know how far down Deku was, or what actually caused him to become a villain. They didn't know what he wanted to achieve, they knew nothing. But there was one more thing they did not know.

They didn't know the influence Deku had on the world, and his plan to use that influence.
