There was a toast last night.
Before it happened, the lights went out. Thought it was an electrical problem, but with everything that’s been going on lately, it put everyone on their guard.
It was just a distraction.
Security footage shows that Livewire purposefully overloaded the system.
Caused some circuit breakers to trip.
Must’ve fled while the power was still out.
Half the staff that’d been distributing the drinks are gone, too. Warp portal.
They’re still analyzing the chemical composition of the drug, but the same drug that dosed all of the heroes last night is of a similar makeup to the Trigger that’s flooding the streets right now.
Some of them lost their minds. Some of them were able to reign it in.
Some of them are still coming off of it now.
Nearly eight years ago, the League of Villains captured Deku during our third year of school at U.A. High. There were three attempts.
Once, Deku escaped. The second time, Deku was held by a shapeshifter called Toga. We found him. Brought him home.
The third time, Deku was captured by their leader. He was interested in the Quirk that Deku possesses, and there were some… experiments.
Experiments that left the power that Deku possesses now somewhat unstable.
I think that’s probably why he’s so invested in Gen Now. He knows what it’s like to struggle with controlling your abilities. He knows what it’s like to feel like a freak. A monster.
You might’ve caught flashes of it here and there.
Most recently, when we were fighting Backlash, I had to attack Deku to keep this power from seeping out.
When Trigger flooded Deku’s body last night, it couldn’t be stopped. It caused Deku’s body to mutate into one of the creatures that we call Noumu.
I don’t know if there’s any reversing this time.
He was in a lot of pain, but it didn’t overwhelm him. Not in the end.
There were a lot of people that wanted to examine him. Study him. Still are, I guess.
We went home. It’s kinda funny now. He could barely fit through the door. He hasn’t talked to me. I’m not sure if he can talk. He doesn’t really look at me, either. But I know he’s still in there.
