Chapter 3 - Beginning of a nightmare

To the doctor's suprise, izuku had quite the healing capability, he is healing much faster than a normal human, unfortunately for izuku his left leg is badly deformed and somehow had barely healed , he can still walk but he won't be able run anymore,

His body is covered in third degree chemical burns, only his head is not burned, but scarred, his left cheeck has 2 scars one horizontal one diagonally, his scalp has multiple deep cuts, he has a cut that barely missed his right eye. The are multiple patches on his head where hair was missing.

His skin colour darkened to a light charcoal black while his eyes continued its dim yellow glowing.

for now he was stuck in the hospital.

/3 days after waking up\

The police arrived to the hospital, they asked the front desk in which room izuku midoriya was in.

Izuku flipped through the TV channels at a rapid pace, bored out of his mind, at least thank to his body healing rapidly, he could move his fingers but not the arm.

A nurse came in to replace the IV and check if izuku needed anything, he asked for a glass of water, she slowly helped him drink it, izuku thanked her as she left, the door barely closed before it swung open again, two cops and a detective stepped inside, once detective entered the cop on the right closed the door.

"Hello, young midoriya. my name is Naomasa Tsukauchi, I'm here to ask you questions as to what happened during the accident, is this fine with you?" the detective politely introduced himself. Izuku having literally nothing else to do, decided to hear the question, better than doing nothing, "Alright"

"Okay, what where you doing the attack?"

Asked the detective, izuku replied "nothing, I was in the backseat of the bus, I didn't even see it coming, i just heard the crash, and by then it was already too late"

"So you know nothing? Not a face, vehicle, quirk?" He Pressed on,

"nothing, nada, everything happened too quickly" said izuku his eyes lingering on the 2 cops guarding the door,

"What were you doing during the attack?"

'What did i just say?!' he tought annoyed "Nothing, like i said I was on the backseat of the bus, I survived because I stayed in the back when everyone else flocked to the front of the bus to have a better view of the commotion going on outside" he gave his answer with a glare,

the detective seemed surprised about something,

"Commotion?, What commotion?, the road was supposed to be evacuated!"

"Before the 'attack' (izuku tried to quote with his fingers but to no success) There was a police blockade on the road with a couple heroes, nobody was evacuated or stopped, many bystander and cars put on hold waiting for the road to clear, the bus and a single tank truck which is probably what gave me these burns".

The detective was furiously writing on his notepad, the 2 cops behind just looked passively at izuku but he could see the rising panic behind that calm exterior, 'hmm i wonder? Were they close or knew about the accident?'

" Midoriya normally i would have doubted your words, but I have a question for you do you know what my quirk is?"

" I'm not sure, but the most likely probability is a lie detector quirk, after all that would also be the perfect for a detective" Izuku answered nonchalantly, he didn't really give any attention to the detective he wanted this done, and to be left alone, alone to his thoughts,

The detective quietly looked at izuku analyzing him, " you are correct, my quirk allow me to detect lie and truth, thank you for your cooperation, we may need to speak with you again possibly in 1-2 weeks,

Would it be alright?"

he asked the bedridden izuku who looked at him funny, 'then again I'm healing faster than normal' he thought 

Izuku nodded, " have a nice day" then the cops opened the door the detective exited the room the cops following closely, closed it behind them as they left.

Izuku just looked at the door ' who will they try to catch? The inept cops? The foolish gloryhound heroes? or the villain who probably didn't think that it was gonna end this way, the police should have used swat vehicles not normal cruisers and most importantly empty the street'

he didn't think much about it, and turned his attention back to the TV, until his sister barged into the room

"izuku! How are you? You are really tought for a quirkless!" Of course she had to begin from that angle,

"What do you want?!" Izuku tried to muster as much anger as possible into his voice only to sound mildly irritated " get out! And leave me alone!".

she ignored him, after all she preferred to see the izuku she created in her head not the real and feeble one, "Oh Izuku I bought you some flowers and that's how you thank me?" She pouted sounded hurt, izuku knew it was a game for her, he could feel his rage very slowly creeping up, 'I'm m the one missing an arm and in an hospital yet, I'm the bad one for not doing make belief?!',

"after all the things I did for you and you never act nice to me! I help you! train you! Why won't you be nice! Why?"

Izuku wasn't sure about getting furious or astounded at what she believed, he long harbored hate and anger against 

His poor excuse of a sister

"All the things you have done? What things?, you brough me nothing but pain!, training?! Thats abuse! You ruined opportunities for me amongst other things! and now you think you can come here and make demand to me so you Can FEEL BETTER?!".

Izuku's voice slowly rose from raspy irritated to a furious roar,

Izumi is taken aback on how selfish izuku is acting, she felt angry at his odacity, how much she helped him! tougher, stronger it was thanks to her!, she balled her first,

And screamed back at him.

A shouting match insued, as she continued screaming at him on how he was careless and thought himself above others, she didn't when the glow on one if his eyes getting stronger, its colour turning from yellow to blood red.

The shouting was put to a stop when a nurse hearing the commotion came and tried to put a stop to it,

Izumi refused to calm down and shouted at the nurse who called security to escort her outside the hospital, Izuku also got reprimanded for causing such a ruckus,

Even though it was not his fault he flipped the nurse the bird to the nurse as much as he could in his state.

/1 hour later\

Someone was knocking on the the door, "Yes?" Izuku called out, doctor akira confirming izuku is awake stepped inside,

"Hello midoriya, how are you feeling? You're shouting could be heard by half of the hosp-" the doctor stopped he narrowed his eyes lookingat his face suspiciously, was there something on it? " midoriya look at me please "

izuku did as he was told and insteadof lookingaroundthe room for the thousands time he looked at the doctor's eyes, the doctor quickly approached izuku, taking out a little flashlight to check the functionality of the ocular globe,

The doctor checked izuku right eye, noticing the changed colour, 

"Hmm midoriya your eye has changed colour, do anything feels different?" He asked as he shut off the flashlight and put it back in his pocket, receiving a negative response to his question he continued,

" do you have any idea how?"<

Izuku mulled over the question the only notable thing that happened since he was in the hospital was his squabble with his sister, "I felt furious, like i never felt before, I was shouting at my sister, and I felt immensely angry, it was like I was burning all over again,"

The doctor quickly pulled out his notepad and wrote what izuku told him.

As he paused writing, he turned his attention back to the bedridden izuku,

"remember your emotions, feelings are heavely damaged, so when you feel a strong emotion it will become more powerful because there are barely other emotions keeping balance, it seems anger will be the strongest emotion you will feel, and with anger you will most likely also feel hate, these emotions could easely go out of control, fortunately its temporary, for now I'll prescribe some medication for you",

the doctor finished writing in his notepad and quickly left the room, leaving Izuku alone again but this time with new things to think about

/the next day\

"- healing capabilities are very powerful while your arm will have to stay in the cast for a month your finger have already healed and are working with no noticeable problems! ".

"your hand will have to stay in the cast for another 2 to 3 day, in 4 days you will probably be discharged since you are healing nicely, here is the prescription for the necessary medication, " he placed a paper on the nightstand next to the bed.

" taking the medication will probably make you fell numb, don't worry about it, thats normal but do tell if you feel anything different, there seems to be no change in the red eye, do you feel different?" The doctor was leaning forward with the flashlight in his hand,

pointing it to Izuku's eyes to see any possible difference or change.

"It feels the same, but apparently during the night it makes me look terrifying" he responded with a tiny smile, the nurse wasn't that happy about the scare though,

' I wasn't even my fault that I woke up and scared her' he thought, then he redirected his attention back to the doctor

"We finished analyzing your blood in the laboratories, it's heavily contaminated with lots of chemicals and....foreign blood?

Some part of you gave different blood types when tested we do not know why, it shouldn't even be possible even for a short time your body should have shown symptoms of rejection but apparently not, even if we knew how, the blood is somewhat poisonous, the red cells try to tear down anything not coming from your body,"

"So I have something of a acidic blood? Wait! Does that mean i have a quirk?! "

izuku asked almost shouted, excitement and happiness clear as day in his voice, "More or less, hmmm, we should change your quirk registration, seems that powerful bursts of emotions still can be felt" remarked the doctor,

Izuku wondered something " how powerful is its acidity? How does it fair against non organic materials or half organic like wood?" He asked brimming with curiosity, until he suddenly got a splitting headache "arghhh!"he grunted 

"are you alright? "the doctor approached him, " i don't know, my head hurts, it hurts alot!" Izuku tried to move but he was still in bed with some cast on his body and a deformed leg, the doctor used his quirk to calm izuku down and reduce the pain, izuku felt sleepy, very sleepy, he tried to resist but his eyelids felt heavy along with his head he closed his eyes trying to think of things to keep himself awake only to promptly fall asleep,

The doctor stood silent as he observed izuku while izuku fell asleep, he began talking to himself going over what he asked " i'm not sure there are a lot of possibilities, I'll have to ask the laboratories to runs another round of tests, its good thing you asked about this, it could have caused lots of unnecessary trouble even pain"

the doctor closed the door and quickly went to the laboratories to get an idea on what could happen if the blood makes contact with the skin and other organic matter 

The answer?

Really bad things

the doctor approached the laboratories in the part that is closed off to the public, the basement is away from prying and curious eyes, it was calm, not even the cacophony of sounds of the hospital could be heard, after all, noises are a distraction, what matter is helping the patients of the hospital, he mused to himself as he always did when he passed through these empty white halls, that was untill he heard a scream,

Fearing the worst he quickened his paste as he got closer he could hear vials shattering and wood breaking, grunts and shoutings, he then suddenly heard footsteps behind him, he did so 180 degree turn first raised, his mind conjuring all sort of possibilities

Only for the footsteps to be coming from two security guards who also must have heard the screams, he took a calming breath and without uttering any word of acknowledgement he made his way, as he reached the door to the laboratory it shattered open off its hinges.

It startled him so bad he tripped on his own foot and fell on his derriere, there was one of the scientist but he looked horrible, he couldn't recognize him, his face....it was mutilated beyond recognition, glass shards sticking out of it,

There were also wood splinter sticking to what remains of its hair, there are scissors stabbed deep in its right eye,

it walked with a weird limp and stumbled on the broken door and fell on the ground face first, the security finally reached them after taking their sweet time. They made a move to grab the scientist "no!, Don't! He is not normal!"

The security heard the urgency in his voice and came to the conclusion that the doctor has a better grasp on what's currently going on, even if arrived only seconds ago.

"Keep your eyes on him, I'm going to check inside ", he personally knew one of the scientist, he really hoped that nothing had happened to him and his colleagues but just by seeing the guy at the door he knew that that was a stretch.

He entered the room it was as if a tornado had passed through. He began calling for his friend,

"Asahi! Are you there?, its me Akira, Asahi! Hello?", finaly the closet in the far end of the room opened 2 scientist stepped out one of them he recognized it was asahi, they were lightly injured at first glance with only scrapes and a busted lip for the other scientist, asahi had multiple small laceration on his forehead, and on his right cheek, blood slowly flowing down his neck,

bwhen they completely stepped out the true injuriesbecame clearer, asahi was clutching the left side of his stomach the white blouse completely red from the bleeding wound, his friend had what looked like a broken arm and fingers bent the wrong way,

"Aughhh" the monster made a noise and tried to stand up," KILL IT!" screeched the scientist, which alerted creature that they were there, it stopped trying stand up instead, he began crawling with haste toward the security guards, the short one wasn't sure what to do, his tall comrade took the matter into his hand he began stomping on the creatures head

*stomp*

Yearghhh

*stomp*

Aurshhh

*stomp*

Auar-aur

*finale stomp*

The creature had half his head caved in its remaining eye having being squashed, there was blood all over the ground and the boot of the security, even his uniform had blood on it.

Asahi opened a cabinet and searched for anti-biotics, gauze and morphine for the injuries, the short security entered the laboratory "is there anyone else?" He asked to the injured scientists,

Asahi grimly nodded " behind the counter" he pointed to the other end of the room where a cabinets door seems broken and the were blood splatters on the walls" 2 of my friends are dead, and I m sure there is one more of my friends who turned into whatever that is," this time he pointed to a door next to the previously pointed counter,

"What do you mean?"asked the security,

"They suddenly became aggressive and attacked us but they were acting as if they were on drugs, sluggish mouvements and all but they were also highly resilient we couldn't stop them,it seemed as if they couldn't feel pain anymore, now two of my colleagues are still stuck with one of them!, and without anything to fight back!, 

Noises could be barely heard through the door squelching, wheezing, 

"Doc?, I don't think your friends are still alive and we have a bigger problem on hand".
