Black.

Black was all he could see.

Inky darkness swirling around him as his body floated in a thick unknown substance.

Around him, voices spoke, whispers in the wind that he could never quite catch. It was maddening.

He tried to move, to struggle, but his body never listened.

His screams went unheard in the darkness around him.

"Move."

"I just have to move, even a little."

His body rebelled, even as his mind forced forward.

"Just move."

He could feel it the subtle energy that coursed through his body as he tried to push forward once more.

"MOVE!"

And finally it did, one arm raised and shot forward making contact with the glass in front of him.

And the whispering stopped.

Another blow shook the building around him.

The third left the glass shattered. Letting the dark red liquid around him pool into the floor. And finally, his vision returned.

What stood in front of him was a group of men and women, all dressed in white lab coats. Shocked and scared expressions on their face as he lumbered forward.

His body was unnaturally heavy as if he was covered in hundreds of pounds of metal.

And when he finally looked at his hands, he realized why.

Dark brown almost black gloves extended down his arms. Ending in metal fingertips, that stretched into small needle-like points.

The rest of his body was covered in the same blackened leather, and even his now needle-like fingertips couldn't pierce it. His hands found his face and the metal wire that wrapped it in a protective sphere.

"What... What did you do to me!"

His scream only came out as a long pained groan. Sounding more like an animal than it did a man.

His step forward sent the scientists into a panic.

They scrambled around the room, clawing at the exits of the facility, desperately trying to get away from him.

His body lumbered forward, hands slamming against the tables.

He was massive, taller, and broader than he had ever been before.

One hand reached forward, his fingers clumsily wrapping around the body of a woman in front of him.

She screamed, the noise deafening in his metallic helmet. And then electricity erupted from hir fingers, arcking forward like lightning at it made contact with his head.

The roar of pain that escaped him shook the building to its core.

He squeezed his hands without even noticing, the smallest twitch enough to snap the woman's spine.

The pain and screaming stopped.

He looked down at the limp body of the woman in his hand. Blood pooling at the corners of her mouth as her back laid limply over the side of his had.

And then the pain came once more.

The red liquid flowed through the needles on his hand, and he could feel it flowing through his veins.

In his rage, he turned, not noticing or caring for the lightning that shot from his hand, frying both equipment and scientist alike.

It was only a few moments later did he realize what he had done.

He sunk to his knees, silently weeping for the lives he had taken.

"Do you feel better now Subject Delta?"

His body froze on its own.

White-hot searing pain tore at the edges of his mind, yet his arms refused to move to clutch his head.

"Would you kindly stand, Subject Delta?"

He wanted nothing more at that moment than to refuse that order, but his body moved no longer under his control.

He stood tall towering over the tiny woman in front of him.

"My name is Sofia Lamb, Subject Delta... Do you recognize me?"

He searched every corner of his mind for that name. Yet every memory he had before breaking out of his tube was gone.

He tried to speak, but his voice came out once more as a strangled groan.

Instead, he just shook his head.

"I see... As expected."

She seemed almost pleased with herself as she observed his reaction.

"Very well. Subject Delta would you kindly return to your tank? You've already caused quite a bit of damage to the staff and equipment."

Once more, he wanted to refuse, yet his body wouldn't listen, moving towards the tank.

He slipped into the tank, the glass breaking against his suit.

"Now then Subject Delta. Would you kindly go to sleep?"

His eyes closed, and he found himself drifting off to sleep before he could even react.

"Good, I promise to explain the rest to you soon. For now, Subject Delta sleep, we still have to find a little sister for you to care for."


Kai Chisaki found himself sitting on a bright red glossy couch. Next, to him, a small crib held the crying granddaughter of his Boss.

Directly across from him stood a slim blonde-haired woman, a wight dress hanging on her shoulders.

"Now then, Mister Chisaki I see you have decided to take me up on my offer."

She had been referring to the message she had sent him in secret, the offer had been simple, he provides her with funding, and in exchange, she would show him a pawn whos loyalty would never change.

He watched as her eyes glanced over to the side, staring at the crib, peeking over to stare at the white-haired girl laying within.

"Now then, while I understand the need to keep an eye on children, can you explain to me why you have brought that child with you?"

Chisaki simply shrugged his shoulders, allowing himself to relax for the first time since he entered the building. Being tense now would only put Lamb on edge.

"It was my turn to babysit her, it would have looked suspicious if I canceled last minute."

"I see."

Silence held in the air for a few seconds, before a small speaker crackled to life.

"Dr. Lamb, Subject Delta is ready for demonstration."

"Very well, prepare the experiment."

Chisaki watched as a wall to the side slowly opened, as several children began to wander out, they were all girls, dressed in what appeared to be tattered dresses.

His eyebrow rose when they began to wander around, calling for someone called "Mister Bubbles."

"Good, now allow Subject Delta to enter the room."

The other wall slid open, as he watched the massive frame of what appeared to be a cobbled-together scuba diver suit entered the room.

Almost as one, he watched as the children gathered around him, calling out to the giant, clambering around his legs, grabbing onto anything they could hold.

"Now then, Mister Chisaki, watch closely. Subject Delta will form a bond with one of the children."

He found himself mildly interested in the whole process.

"Tell me the value of having him bond with one of these children."

The smile that spread across her face at his statement sent shivers down his spine.

"You see Mister Chisaki, Subject Delta will act as a father towards the child, protecting and taking care of her as if she was his own. But the child itself will still be under our control. Subject Delta will gladly give his life to protect her and anyone he deems necessary by association. All you have to do is care for the child as well, and he will be a loyal guardian to both the girl... And your organization."

Chisaki hummed in response, leaning forward in his seat to stare at the behemoth through the glass.

"So how will we know when he picks a child?"

"The doll in his hand Mister Chisaki, he will present it to the child he decides to protect. It will be the deciding fact in his decision to adopt the children."

He nodded once more, waiting to see his choice.

"Now than Subject Delta... Would you kindly pick a child."

Chisaki watched as the behemoth's head swiveled, staring at each of the girls for a second.

Somewhere in the back of his mind, he registered Eri's wails of fear, as the baby struggled in her crib.

And then the giants head turned towards the glass, and with a single lumbering step, he now stood facing towards Chisaki.

"Subject Delta, Would you kindly select a child."

Lamb's previously confident face now stood angry, as she glared at the giant.

Then they both watched as he raised a fist, slamming it against the glass as it cracked like a spider web.

Chisaki stood, preparing for battle as he slipped off the glove that had been resting on his hands.

Another clumsy punch left the glass rattling as the alarms around them went off. He could hear the boots of security guards around them, charging towards the door, ready to protect Dr. Lamb.

With one last punch, the glass finally gave way, shattering as Subject Delta walked in. His heavy footfalls marching towards him.

Chisaki charged ready to use his quirk to kill the man in front of him.

But with a single step to the side, Chisaki missed his target entirely.

Subject Delta took another step forward coming to a stop right in front of Eri's crib.

In that very moment, time seemed to slow down as Chisaki charged towards the behemoth in front of him. His hand outstretched to touch the man.

One-touch, one-touch was all he needed.

He saw the security door open out of the corner of his eyes, men in combat armor charging towards his intended target, guns already leveled at the man.

And the giant sunk to one knee, his hand outstretched as he picked up the child in front of him.

In one hand he held the child, in the other a small doll that seemed to be an exact copy of himself.

The world returned to normal as Chisaki's switched targets, his hands coming in contact with the guards that were about to open fire on the Behemoth.

Within a single second half, a dozen guards painted the walls without so much as a scream.

His head swiveled once more, staring at the behemoth that was currently holding a giggling baby, A small doll dancing in his hand as he entertained her. Making sure she wasn't facing the bloodshed that had just occurred.

"Dr. Lamb... was it? I think your monster just found his daughter."

Perhaps he should have been enraged, he should kill the monster, after all, it would get in the way of his plans.

But his every instinct told him if he tried to separate the pair now, he wouldn't live through the encounter.

"Yes... It would appear he has."

Gently one of the babies hands lifted up grasping the outstretched finger as she giggled. Playing with his hand, the doll grasped in her other.

"Mr. Chisaki... I would like to introduce you to Izuku Midoriya, or as he is known now Subject Delta."

"Dr. Lamb, I think you have yourself a deal."
