Chapter 15: Chapter 15
I tortured the 'Savages' soldier for three days straight.
At the end of three days, he had no nails or teeth left. His right hand had no bones and his floating ribs had been pulled out. A shattered jaw, broken ribs, broken bones and a cracked skull were some of the many injuries I had inflicted upon him.
He gave me all kinds of information during those three days. Every soldier had to report back to the base with the cargo after every two weeks.
I knew where all of their hideouts were in the city and all the associates of the gang. The leader of the gang was a man with an unknown quirk. He was only known as 'The First'.
Musutafu was simply the city in which they operated. Their base was amongst the many uninhabited islands of the country.
Worst of all, he told me about all the criminal activities in which they were involved.
Human trafficking was their main source of income and they made videos for the darkest parts of the internet that showed rape, necrophilia, torture, mutilation and even cannibalism. These videos had sponsors from all over the world. Some were even part of the upper echons of the rich in Japan.
The soldier himself had been part of some of these videos and one of his jobs was to kidnap little boys to be trafficked out to cults and rich men who liked 'exotic' young boys. For a gang to be so deeply involved in crime and be able to hide from the eyes of law inforcement was extremely concerning.
Musutafu wasn't as safe as the world presumed.
It wasn't the torture that I had inflicted on the man that made me sick to my stomach. It was the horrors he talked about that shook me to the core. The deep seated evil within humans had only spread with the birth of quirks.
It was the first time in both of my lives that I was having a hard time controlling myself from wanting to kill someone. The man tied to the chair disgusted me and I wanted to kill him in the most horrible way possible.
But, the amount of pain I had inflicted upon his person was already too extensive.
I couldn't bring myself to look at him and not try to kill him. So, I gave him anesthesia and left my appartment to the infamous Dagobah beach that had reacently been cleaned by Midoriya.
As I laid my eyes on the deep blue sea, I took a deep breath and took a dive into the waters. I let out a yell while floating on the surface, letting my anger finally explode.
I was feeling disgusted and filthy. Disgusted at the world I was in, I began to understand why so many heroes and law inforcement officers lost their minds. The people they'd had to kill and the ones they tortured for information, the psychological toll it took was enough to break even the hardiest of individuals.
I could count on my fingers the number of times I cried in both of my lives. That day, while I was screaming to the sky above, my tears were added to the vast sea in which I was floating, crying for choosing to become a monster.

Swimming in the sea helped me calm down, but, my soul had been tainted for ever. All I could do was train harder, learn new moves and save more people than I maimed and eventually... killed.
I was able to devote my time in training and I chose the sea as my training ground. I swam as fast as I could and tried to catch the fishes. It was my method of learning 'Aqua Jet'.
Along with that, I also managed to learn 'Whirlpool', 'Water Pulse' and finally, according to me a very important move, 'Life Dew'.
I didn't want to kill the soldier from 'Savages'. Kiiling would have alerted the gang or would have caused them to target rivals gangs leading to a lot of collateral damage to public property and loss of life. Getting injured in a scuffle or a fight with a rival gang member was much more plausible.
'I need to learn 'Psychic'.'

As I was walking to my appartment, I saw that Sunao was about to knock on my door.
"Sunao?"
She got startled and immediately looked at me. Her eyes widened a little and she exclaimed, "Asui-kun! I havn't seen you in five days! Had you gone somewhere?"
I sighed from fatigue and said, "I've been training rigorously for the upcoming sports festival as U.A. so I'm out for most of the time. I come back only to sleep. I'm sorry, I should have told you about it."
She quickly shook her head and raised hands while saying, "No! I-I hadn't seen you and was... slightly worried.. Since you got hurt. I thought you had to go to the hospital.. or something."
'... I don't deserve this girl. She's so innocent!'
I walked towards my appartment and while opening the door, I said to her, "For those four lost days, let's have beer at your place! It'll help me losen up a little!"
He face seemed to brighten and she excitedly clapped her hands together while saying, "That's a great idea! I have the best tasting beer availible in the market!"
I smiled as the weariness and the hate seemed to leave my body just by being close to her.
"I'll freshen up and be at your door in an hour."
"Great!!"
We... mostly her, talked about her days at M.U. and all the mundane rivalries forming between the girls. She talked about all the friends she made and the new things she was taught.
She also discovered that she had a talent in dancing and singing.
We drank beer till late after midnight.
As the effects of the alcohol took over me, I slumped over the table and was too delirious to get up on my own. Sunao chuckled a little and dragged me to the couch before pulling me up and making me lay down on it.
She gently stroked my hair, kissed on my cheek and whispered, "Goodnight, Asui-kun."
I slowly drifted into sleep as she walked away on her toes. The feeling of her lips lingered behind, making me feel that perhaps... I wasn't so terrible after all.

A/N: The MC isn't perfect and nor am I. He lived a somewhat sheltered life and he is bound to make mistakes. Perfection is idealistic. Sometimes, we make the wrong choice, take the wrong action and have regrets later. Did you think this will be a crack fic with senseless smut? Hell no.
