traitor
You look around and push off whoever is holding you and you're about ready to bring up the earth beneath you until a hand wraps around your throat. Your eyes widen and lips part when you realize its only four fingers.
Then you hear a scratchy voice,"Now now...don't do anything stupid. We aren't going to hurt you." You look around and realize you're a bar of sorts. But that really isn't your main concern when you realize those inside the bar. A familiar group of villains all stand around and seem to have their eyes on you.
Swallowing hard you exhale shakily,"Let me go. I won't try anything." You speak honestly. If they wanted to hurt you or kill you they would have done it by now. You were skillful and powerful but half of these villains were years your senior and held deadly quirks.
You felt it wise to wise to not do anything. Yet.
Shigaraki chuckles and lets you go. You step away from him and your hand reaches up to instinctively hold your neck.
"What do you want?",you question while crossing your arms over your chest tightly.
The league exchanges looks at your strange calmness in the situation. You aren't fearful or angry, if anything you're irritated.
Mr.Compress approaches you while bending down to meet your eye level and he says what everyone is thinking,"You're strangely calm about this." You look to the showman, you shake your head gently.
"I know about all of you. From your quirks to your crimes.",you glance around at the villains before looking back to the masked man, only his eyes and smile visible,"Being an emotional mess will do me no good."
Mr.Compress chuckles and smiles while turning to everyone with a flamboyant spin,"She seems promising!" You pinch your brows together and wonder what he's talking about until Kurogiri speaks from behind the bar.
"We all witnessed your performance at the Sports Festival. We're all curious as to what you did to them.",he says in a straightforward manner and you glance around the room with pinched brows.
You shake your head gently as you begin to realize whats going on here. But Toga confirms it as she bounces towards you with a wide smile. "Oh you are so pretty! Its only me now so another girl would be great!" She speaks in a joyous and energetic manner. You notice the way her cheeks and nose hold heavy redness.
You glance around the room and shake your head,"I'm not joining the league." You turn to Shigaraki who leans against the bar. His face hidden by a detached hand. But his eyes still stare you down between the fingers. Toga frowns deeply and walks to Dabi's side.
"Your quirk is a strange one but nevertheless one we could use. Physically and mentally.",Kurogiri speaks and you turn to him with lowered brows and frowning lips. "Face it, you were born to be a villain." You scoff and shake your head while pinching the bridge of your nose.
Shigaraki rests his hands in his jeans,"Nobody cares about those without hero like quirks.",you notice his eyes shift and he cocks his head.
"Just ask Shinso."
Your brows pinch together and you look behind you. Your eyes meet those dark purple ones and your lips part in surprise.
"We've got to stick together, (Y/N). Don't you agree?",his eyes lock on yours. You shake your head and look back to Shigaraki. Your heart is pounding and you feel stupid for believing you finally found a good friend with no bad intentions. You ignore the stabbing in your gut and just feel thankful you discovered before you grew a deeper connection.
"You think this'll work? I'm not a traitor to what I believe in.",you have grown past the basis of being calm. Your voice raises slightly and the villains rock as the ground beneath them begins to vibrate and shake.
Shigaraki grins behind the hand and drops his head,"Wouldn't it be a shame if everyone found out what really happened to Hiroshi Fujisaki?" Shinso looked up as Shigaraki said this. He looked to you and noticed the way you froze and the ground stopped moving.
He had no clue what he was talking about.
That name...you thought as you exhaled shaky breaths and brought your hands up to rest on your racing heart.
"Now. Lets talk like adults.",Shigaraki sneers while lazily lifting his head and watching tears well in your eyes.
You found yourself walking along the dark streets and back to U.A with wide unblinking eyes. Your entire body was shaking at the deal you had just made with the League of Villains. Shinso walked aside you and he exhaled deeply.
He looked down to your bowed head and he rolled his eyes,"It really isn't that big of a deal, (Y/N)." Before he could even react you grabbed the collar of his shirt and shoved him against a streetlight. He was caught by surprise and groaned when his back hit the steel. You looked at him with wide eyes and your voice shook.
"Are you kidding me? I just agreed to betray—I just signed away everything I believed in and you think it isn't a big deal?",his eyes are slightly wide as you stare into them,"You're a traitor. You're a pathetic coward." You spit out in a venomous tone. His face turns dark and he grabs your hips and spins you around.
You grunt in pain when he shoves you against the streetlight. His eyes meet yours and he wears an angered and irritated expression. "I've been prosecuted and targeted for my quirk for years by those people who call themselves "heros". Especially that asshole Katsuki. I never held loyalty for U.A. And you're more pathetic than I am if you truly want to support a system that tears down those who don't benefit them." You glare at him as his eyes stare daggers into yours.
You roughly shoved him off of you, your chest heaved up and down in frustrated and angered breaths. You shake your head and give him the bird as you walk ahead. "You think those people give a shit about you?" You stop and shut your eyes. Shinso walks up to you and leans down to whisper in your ear. "I've had more support from the villains than those heros."
He turns around to face you. You stare straight ahead with a trembling bottom lip and shaking hands. His fingers curl beneath your chin and he lifts your gaze to his. "Think of me any way you want but you're trapped now. We'll be seeing a lot more of each other. You'll realize soon that I'm right."
His fingers linger a few moments too long before he walks ahead of you and disappears into the darkness. You stand underneath the last streetlight and hold your face in your hands.
You spend a while contemplating every decision you've made that led up to this moment where your life has shifted forever.

"Hey, wake up Fujisaki."
You groan as you are shaken by someone. Blinking softly you rub your tired eyes and lift your head. Your eyes meet Ashidos yellow ones. She smiles at you with a soft laugh.
"Didn't get much sleep?",she questions and you stretch with a soft groan. You look around and notice students pouring out of class. You smile weakly at Ashido and stand up while tucking back your hair.
"No, I could hardly sleep.",she links your arms and leads you out of the class where Bakugo is waiting. "By the way thanks again for inviting me out, it was great." Ashido is about to speak until you three hear your name being called from behind.
"(Y/N)!"
Bakugo takes a double take when he notices the way your smile falls from your tired face at the sound of Shinso's voice.
You turn and unlink arms with Ashido. Shinso walks towards you with an indifferent expression and he pulls your backpack off of your back,"I'll walk you to class." He doesn't even wait for a response when he starts to walk ahead. You refrain from throwing your shoe at him and turn to Ashido and Bakugo.
"I'll see you guys at lunch?",Ashido nods with slightly wide eyes and watches you jog up to Shinso. She rests her hands on her hips and she blinks back.
"Wow...go (Y/N)!",she whisper shouts as a wide grin spreads across her face,"I wonder how she got Shinso." Bakugo feels an uneasiness in his stomach once more as Shinso walks close besides you. Having the same next class he looks to Ashido.
"Dumbass forgot we have the same class, I'll see you."
You look to Shinso with a harsh glare,"Are you serious? We don't need to look like we're dating.",you whisper shout at him as you attempt to grab your bag. He laughs and stops, holding it up above his head. He cocks his head with amusement as you try to grab it.
"Let them assume what they want. Its not like they don't do that already.",he commented with bitterness on his tongue. He looks up when your bag is snatched from his hand. His eyes then fall to Bakugos sharp red ones. His eyes are narrowed and brows lowered as they stare into Shinsos.
He then shifts his gaze to you and knocks on your head once,"Grow a few inches you gnome." He hands you your bag and you scowl at him while slinging your bag over your shoulder. God is it asshole day?
“You’re short as hell too...”,you grumble out.
You think with annoyance while hurrying on before Shinso can stop you or Bakugo can walk with you. Bakugo turns to Shinso and snorts before walking ahead, his hands resting in his uniform pockets.
Shinso glares at the back of Bakugos head, asshole.
