How the fuck did I end up talking to a therapist with Deku by my side? And apparently this session is for me and not him. What the fuck did I do to end up needing therapy? This therapist is fucking weird as well, this whole time he's been either ignoring Deku or talking to him in the wrong direction. What kind of shitty therapist is this.
"So bakugo, i heard that you started taking anger management classes." He says.
"So fucking what if I am." I shoot back.
"So do you think this has anything to do with the overwhelming guilt you feel?" I think i might of given him the dirtiest look ever. Is this guy serious, why the fuck am I still here, I don't have to put up with this shit. I grit my teeth to refrain myself from saying something I'll regret then I grab my bag and tell Deku I'm leaving.
"Kacchan you can't just leave, aunty spent money on this." Deku pipes up. To be honest I don't really give a fuck how much money she spent, I didn't need a stupid therapist in the first place.
"Her money went down the drain the moment she booked me this appointment." I tell him before taking my bag and stomping out the room.

I hear my phone ring and I pick it up to see that its the therapist. He's probably calling about his session with Katsuki. I answer the call and say "hello"
"Is this Mrs Bakugo?" I hear from the other side. I confirm my identity before the therapist continues talking again.
"This is about your son. I think I know what's wrong with him." I'm glad, I think Izuku's death really got to him.
"I think the shock of losing his friend and not having him there with him is what has caused his brain to make him think that he is still there as a coping mechanism. The death of his friend must have left an empty whole in his heart which his brain is trying to fill so in other words, this is just his way of handling his close friends death." The therapist says.
"So this is all because he couldn't handle Izuku's death." The therapist confirms what I said then I ask, "So what are we supposed to do?"
"Its best that we don't do anything for now, if we tell him that Deku is dead he is most likely to go a little bit crazy. It would be like taking away the only reason he can still cope with this whole situation. I'm guessing most of this is due to guilt so we should slowly try to make him realise that his friend is gone and that it isn't his fault.
You shouldn't bring up Deku or try to interfere with that situation though, and you should try your best not to influence the reality of Deku either. So don't try and interact with Deku or pretend to speak to him, others shouldn't as well. If Bakugo continues to come to a therapy session every week his mental state should be stable throughout this whole process and eventually he'll be fine."
I thank him before wrapping up the call with the therapist and ending it. I sigh trying to organise all the thoughts in my head. I never realised Katsuki cared this much about Izuku since they seemed to have grown more distant over the years. Mabey that's what the therapist meant when he said Katsuki felt guilty. I think we all feel a little bit guilty and want Izuku back but I've never heard of someone hallucinating as a coping method. I put my phone down on the table and sit down before letting out another sigh.
"This is gonna be a long day."

The day of Izuku's death
I close my eyes as I walk through a black swirl of mist following the two infront of me. I feel a rush of wind pass around me till it abruptly stops.
"Welcome back. Did you find what you were looking for?"
I open my eyes and expected to see a shabby, old, abandoned house. Instead I'm met with a well furnished bar that looks fairly new. I would have never thought that villians could live somewhere so nice like this, but I guess this whole villian thing is rather new to me.
"Yeah he's right here." Hand man says. "Where's Twice?"
"I'll call him over right now." I look over to the owner of the voice and see that he's made out of the same purple mist that transported us here, and he's wearing a suit. Pretty fancy, atleast one person has class.
"That's Kurogiri. His quirk is warp gate, pretty self explanatory." Dabi must of noticed me staring since he comes over to me and starts to introduce me to the other people in the room as well. "The boy over there is mustard." I look over to where Dabi is pointing and I see a boy in a school uniform, he looks a little younger than me. What could have possibly happened to make such a young kid become a villian. Then again I just agreed to become a villian myself so.
Mustard looks my way then scowls before turning away once again. His light brown hair fluttering in the air with his movements, although it looks kind of grey in this lighting. He also has lifeless brown eyes, something you wouldn't expect from a kid. Im guessing something bad must of happened to him. He's also wearing an army style uniform which looks pretty worn out like he's been wearing it for quite a while.
"Don't be so rude, introduce yourself." I hear Dabi say. The boy turns back around giving me the dirtiest look before reluctantly saying, "My name is Mustard, My quirk is sleeping gas, and I'd prefer it if you don't talk to me." Not gonna lie I feel kind of offended.
"He gets defensive when he meets new people but anyway over there is magne, her quirk is basically like a magnet. You can get the details later." Dabi continues. I look over to the person in the corner which I would have never guessed was a woman if Dabi didn't say 'her', but I guess there's a reason people say never judge a book by its cover.
"Heya" says Magne as she waves at me. I give a little wave back. She has reddish-brown hair which goes to just above her shoulders, she's also wearing white sun glasses so I can't tell what her eye color is. I realise that I'm staring so I turn my attention back over to Dabi.
"And over there is Mr Compress." He says with a grin on his face. I turn around to see a guy wearing a black and white mask right in my face.
"Want to see some magic?" he says.
"Sure." I reply. He reaches behind my ear and pulls out a coin. A pretty basic trick, not that impressive. But then he does some weird flicky thing with his hand and the coin disappears.
"Look inside that notebook of yours." I'm a little confused but I do as he says and find the same coin inside it.
"Cool! How did you do that?" I say my face lighting up. He chuckles a little before stepping back and saying, "A magician never reveals their secrets."
"His quirk allows him to compress things into marbles." Dabi says. That's actually really cool. I look over to him and flash him a smile, he takes of his mask and smiles back then bows. Most of the villians here seem to be nice so far.
"Here he is." Says the mist guy as he walks back in with a man wearing a black and grey bodysuit which also covers his face. I'm guessing that's Twice.
"Hi nice to meet you. I hate him already." He says contradicting himself. He seems pretty weird but I think he has split personalities.
"Great your here, now hurry up and make a clone of him so we can fake his death." Shigiraki says.
"Ok. Whatever." Twice says as he takes out a measuring tape and suddenly starts measuring me. This is actually kind of weird and I don't like it, but if it means I get to see a clone of myself, I don't care.
A few minutes after and he's done measuring and then makes a clone that looks exactly like me.
"That's amazing!" I say with a wide grin on my face and I start touching the clone to see how real it really is.
"I know right I'm amazing." He strikes a pose and looks really proud of himself which makes me laugh a little.
Suddenly a door opens and I see a girl I think the same age as me stroll into the room as she says, "I'm back." In a sing song voice.
I'm immediately drawn to the blood all over her school uniform. I look up a little to look at her face which was a big mistake. Our eyes meet and she immediately pounces on top of me like some kind of feline. She's super close which makes me blush a little. She has ash blond hair wich has been tied up into two messy buns and cat like yellow eyes. She's grinning from ear to ear and I can see that she has two sharp canine teeth like a vampire, which kind of scares me.
"Your cute, but I think that you'd be cuter with a little blood." She says, getting even closer. I try to get away from her but she's pinning me down really hard and I hate to admit it, but I'm not really that strong.
"Toga get off your scaring him." Dabi says coming to my rescue.
"Aw, why! It was just getting fun." She whines as she slowly gets off of me.
"That's Toga if I were you I'd stay far away from her."
"Hey, that's mean." She pouts then turns to me and says, "My quirk is transformation. I can become anyone if I drink some of their blood, but how long i can depends on how much blood i drink." She tells me while bouncing up and down. She's so energetic, just looking at her makes me tired.
"Whats your name?" She asks while suddenly getting closer again.
"I-Izuku Midoriya." I say shakily.
"Izu-kun then." She says as she gets even closer.I'm fully convinced that this girl doesn't know what personal space is.
"So izu-kun what's your quirk." She stares at me in anticipation and I can tell that the rest of the villians in the room are interested too.
"Um, d-did D- Dabi not tell you." She shakes her head and gets closer yet again so I take a step back before saying. "Well you see I-I'm quirkless."
I can feel an awkward tension arise in the room and I'm pretty sure I hear Twice say "oh damn"
"You brought a quirkless person to join the league." The boy named Mustard remarks looking clearly upset.
"Yeah, so what." Shigiraki says now turning his full attention to the boy. "He could have the absolute worst quirk in the world for all I care. It doesn't matter as long as I'm able to kill All Might."
Mustard turns back around but made sure to give me a death glare in the process. He has a really bad attitude problem. Although his reaction was justified, I mean I am quirkless after all.
"Wait so your the one who wrote everything in that notebook." Magne says. I nod and everyone seems to perk up. Except Mustard obviously.
"Woah, your really quirkless? Judging by those notes I thought that you had an intelligence quirk or something." Mr Compress says. "That's amazing kid, your a genius and its not even thanks to a quirk."
A genius? I just stare dumbfounded. No one has ever called me a genius before, I've always ever been called a nerd or an otaku wich made people think I was weird, but for once someone praised me instead of calling me creepy or avoiding me. I don't know when I started crying but I can feel tears streaming down my face and that uncomfortable tension returns to the room. I try to stop my tears from flowing and i can hear Twice making a fuss and contradicting himself.
"Hey you alright kid." Dabi asks. I sniff a little and wipe the tears from my face.
"Yeah." I say.
"I was just thinking that I'm really going to like it here."
