Chapter 13

The Saturday morning sun shone in through the window of their room and its warmth spread across Athena and Izuku's bed, bringing with it a chance to escape the thoughts and dreams they had both been feeling. The warmth woke Izuku up first and as he stirred from his troubled sleep, he looked over to Athena, still asleep and curled up into a tight ball under the covers, her face calm and peaceful as she laid there. Many thoughts were going through his head, and he needed to understand the whole situation he was now in, they were in now. Luckily Katsuki had brought his phone and charger in one night when he was still unconscious. He plugged it in to charge and waited for it to start up, the chime of his phone brought him out of his current mind, and he looked to his screen and saw the many hundred messages from his mother and Katsuki, and he slowly read each one while he waited for Athena to rise. The process seemed to last for hours as he saw the love and worry from his mother and the anger then the worry and finally the distress of his blonde friend.

This situation they were in was something they all needed to talk about, and he wanted someone to bounce his ideas off, he had a few whilst his was reading the messages but he wanted to make sure, he also wanted Kacchan to be with him when they talked, and he wasn't sure why. He knew he loved his blonde friend, but he didn't know that there was a craving for him, when did he crave Katsuki? when did it start? why did it start? was this his nature now he was a rouge?

Rustling from across the room caught his attention, and he looked to see that Athena was now awake and looking at him, her violet eyes pierced his, and he blushed from the intensity of her stare. The blush spread across his face and down his neck, he turned away but was once again caught by her spell, forcing him to return to her gaze.

"Good morning Izuku". She said as she rose from her bed and positioned herself into a sitting position, looking at Izuku. Even with just waking up she could still steal his breath away with her beauty.

"Good morning Athena. How are you feeling today?"

"I'm good thank you, Izuku. How about you?"

"I'm OK, I know that you have just woken up, but can we discuss what we were told yesterday. We don't have to if you would prefer not too but it's concerning and worrying for me, and I need to find a way to cope with it all."

"If you need to talk than I'm here for you. We do need to understand what is means being Rouges and how this will change things for us, we also need to know if you can be away from me? I have no idea what the life of a hero is all about and even though you tried to tell me, I still don't fully understand. I'm sorry that you have been put in this position because of me, but I am glad that I meet you."

"Athena, none of this is your fault and the only position you have put me in is one of still being alive, without you being here I would have died. There is nothing wrong with that. I believe that I found my mate, and they are as special and amazing as I imagined them to be. You have been in my dreams for as long as I can remember. You have nothing to be sorry for. I do agree that we need to discuss things and how it affects us. Do you mind if I ask Katsuki to come and be here when we talk, he said he did some research on it, and he might've found a way to help us?"

"I am fine with him being with us, if you hadn't of asked then I was going to. I think he is important for the both of us. Do you mind if we have Shoto here as well?"

"If you think he is needed then I can ask Kacchan to bring him along, but are you sure you want him here? He tried to touch you when you were using your quirk."

"He was simply curious about the situation and as I said yesterday, I have feeling that he is involved in this whether we want him to be or not. He and Katsuki are going to be important but for what, I am unsure"

"Ok, I will send him a message and see if he can come over with Todoroki"

Izuku picked his phone back up from where was lying on the bed and scrolled until he hit the blondes name.

[Deku] Kacchan, do you mind if you come and talk with me and Athena Today, we would like to know more about what you found out and would feel better with you here. Could you also see if Todoroki is available to come as well?

"I sent him a message and we need to wait but knowing Kacchan he is out training and will answer when he can".

Katsuki was indeed out running on the track doing his normal morning training when his music was dulled by the sound of a message coming through. He slowed his run down to look at the message to see that it had come Izuku. He smiled when he realised Izuku had turned his phone back on and had been spammed by the many messages he had sent him, his smile quickly died away when he read that they wanted Todoroki to be with them when they talked, he didn't think he needed to be there, he wasn't part of anything, and he didn't want him to get any closer to Athena or Izuku then he needed.

[Katsuki] Why the fuck do you want that bastard to be there?

[Deku] I don't but Athena thinks he is going to be involved in this whether we like it or not. I don't want him near her, but it is what she wants. Please just ask him for me Kacchan.

[Katsuki] We agree on that then nerd. If I see him then I will ask but otherwise I'm not going out of my fucking way. I will be there in an hour, need to shower and eat.

[Deku] Thank you Kacchan and see you in an hour, we need to eat too.

Katsuki decided to cut his training short so he could go and see Izuku and Athena, as he was walking back to the dorms from his run, he saw the one person he didn't want to right now, he was hoping he didn't come across him so he didn't have to ask, but he always did what he said he would. The bi-coloured Alpha spotted the blonde and decided to walk over to him to see if he had heard from either Izuku or Athena, he knew that he had by the way the blonde was trying to avoid him, he had a feeling that he would be needed today by them, so he had decided to skip his training for a lie in. As they got closer to each other the anger rolled of Katsuki shoulders was puzzling to Shoto, why was he angry or maybe it wasn't anger but jealously. The trio was becoming more and more interesting to Shoto, and he had to know more.

"Icy hot, Athena wants you to come with me to talk with them."

"Morning to you too Baukugo. That is where I was heading to anyway, but I can wait for you. Nice to know she wants me around" The smirk on Shoto face becoming bigger at the thought he was wanted by her, it made his Alpha ego grow, but the cocky smirk didn't go a miss by Baukugo.

"Go in there with that smirk and Izuku will rip you a new one, didn't you fucking learn from yesterday. An hour, you better fucking wait"

Katsuki went and had a shower and some food whilst Shoto waited for him in the common room, he was scrolling through his phone trying to find put more about Rogues as well but was just coming up with old myths. He wanted real proof of them being Rogues but the memory of being forced to submit flashed across his mind and he knew that he didn't really want to be subjected to that again. His mind wondered back to Athena and how beautiful she was to him and how here chocolate scent had penetrated his pores and forced something inside of him to awaken. He had never really taken an interested in the second gender of those around him, but she had caught his attention and one look for her was all he needed to become involved in whatever the trio was in. He dreamed of her all night, and they were not innocent on his part. He had her is so many ways, doing unspeakable things to her that he had awaken from his dreams rock hard and painful, the slightest touch sent a shiver down his spine, he had to release himself from the pain and began to stroke his member quickly to ease the ache he felt, the whole time she dances through his mind and the unspeakable acts he would do to her helped him feel the heat rise in his stomach and flow down his member. He climaxed as a moaning, panting and drooling mess, his knot formed and pumped his seed into his hand and down his stomach. The pain had subsided but the desire to have her had grown stronger and he would do anything to have her in his arms. His mind played over the dreams and thoughts about her whilst he waited for the blonde to finish eating and he felt his pants start to tighten once more before a low and menacing growl was heard from next to him.

"What the actual fuck icy-hot!" Katsuki shouted at him and brought his mind back from his oh so pleasant dreams.

"Nothing to concern you self with Baukugo. Are you finally done" Shoto's tone was rather rash, abrupt as he was pulled from his pleasant dreams by the angry blonde and he wanted Baukugo to know that he was not in the mood to be play games with the fiery Alpha. Katsuki just looked at Shoto before storming off out of the dorms and towards the facility. Shoto soon followed and before they knew it, they were both racing each other, sizing one another up as they went to see Athena and Izuku, both Alphas were starting to fall to their inner beasts and the chase that the Alphas loved so much. Onlookers ran out of the way of the snarling, growling, and running Alphas, two unsuspecting girls got caught in their chase and both fell to the floor in submission from their pheromones. The Alphas however did not notice as they raced, both suddenly smashed into a cement wall that shot up from the ground in front of them. Neither of them had seen or sensed it as they were both challenging each other, lost entirely in their own world. The wind was knocked out of both as they thudded at full run into the wall and landed on their back facing the sky.

"What do you both think you are doing?" said a man with a deep voice, he was square, and his grey coloured skin stood out before them. Both looked over to the deep voice they had heard, and it was no other then Cementoss that had stopped them. He had seen the whole race and was going to let it continue as he had seen it so many times before, but he had to stop them once they placed the two innocent girls into submission and not even looked back to check they were alright. The Alphas were still trying to catch their breath as the teacher stood above them and removed the wall he had placed. His crossed his arms and waited patiently for them to catch their breath and answer his question.

"Wasn't it fucking obvious. That fucking hurt!"

"Language Baukugo and don't think I won't tell Aizawa about this. He loves putting Alphas like you in their place, but first you need to go and help those two girls you both forced into submission"

"What fucking girls?" Katsuki said as he followed the arm from his teacher pointing to the panting mess of the two girls slightly further back from where they had come.

"Oh shit!" was all the Shoto could say before he was on his feet and running back over to the girls on the floor, still under some of the pheromone that lingered in the air. Katsuki could hear him apologising and asking if they needed any help, the scent of lilac started to fill the area as best it could to bring the girls back some verbal ability. The next thing he saw was Shoto pick up one of the girls and walked over to Katsuki where he handed her over and went back for the other.

"We need to take them to the facility to get checked over" Shoto said to the blonde, who just clicked his tongue and walked the girl to the facility with Cementoss and Shoto in tow. Upon reaching their location, they handed the girls over to the team of nurses and explained what had happened before being scolded once again for their reckless and selfish actions. They both knew that this wasn't the end of it and waited to see if more was going to be done but their teacher just walked off and informed the nurses to call if anything else happened to the girls that were now in their care before leaving the building and two confused, pissed Alphas.

Izuku could smell them before he saw or heard them and knew they had entered the facility, but they were with some others that he didn't know the scent of. He got up from his bed slowly before walking over towards the doorway to peer down the corridor, he saw them both being scolded by a hero; he knew the hero well but had never meet him and he started muttering about what he was like, his fan-boying running rampant. Athena was watching him curiously as he stayed peering from the doorway, muttering. She slowly moved from her bed but as soon as she tried to put any weight on her legs, she collapsed in a heap. Izuku heard the thud, which pulled him out of his trance like state and turned to see her on the floor, he instinctually moved over to help her. He bent down and saw she was pouting at her situation, and he had to hide the chuckle from escaping from his lips, she looked so cute pouting, but he could see she was frustrated and embarrassed by the situation, so he placed his hands underneath her legs and round her back to scoop her up into his chest and placed her back on the bed before looking at her. Her head hung low as she repositioned herself to be more comfortable before she felt his hands on either side of her face, he was trying to get her to look at him, her head moved to the side where he was standing, and she investigated the emerald pools above her before smiling and grabbing his hands that we placed on her face with her own. The look of bliss from this simple act made Izuku gasp, and he felt himself moving closer, his eyes darting between her lips and eyes, seeking some form of permission and when she didn't move, he moved forward faster to place his lips on hers but was interrupted by a cough from behind him. A low growl left his lips as he slowly raised his head and turned around to see Katsuki and Shoto standing at the doorway. Izuku knew they were there, but he was so draw in by Athena that he just wanted to taste her soft, pink lips on his, the feeling of them on him was sending his mind into overdrive and he just wanted to kiss her, see the look on her face and taste her sweet scent on his own. His head fell and he sighed, realising he lost his chance, but he knew that there would be other times, maybe once they had left, he could get her in the mood to kiss again but he didn't want to force her into anything.

"Good morning Kat and Shoto, thank you both for coming to see us" Athena said in her honey coated voice, sending small shivers down the spines of the Alphas in the room".

"Morning to you to Athena and Izuku. Thank you for inviting me to come along. I was hoping to come and see you both today anyway". Shoto said back to them before walking into the room more and grabbing the only chair to sit on. Katsuki saw the move and went to another room to grab a chair, as he had a feeling this was going to take a while, most things did when Izuku was involved. When he walked back in with the chair, he noticed that Izuku was sitting on the end of Athena's bed, holding her hand, and watching the bi-coloured Alpha in front of him, he had a feeling that Izuku did not trust Shoto, and he smirked at how the greenette's was acting. He too was still unsure of the Alpha and was going to keep an eye on him.

"What did you want us for nerd?"

"Well, Kacchan you said that you did some research on Rogues and we would like to know what you found and if there was a way to help me be away from Athena, without, you know dying?" the sass in is voice was becoming more evident the more he spoke.

"You fucking dragged me over her with this bastard for something you could look up on you fucking own? Seriously Deku"

"Come on Kacchan, you know I wouldn't have dragged you over her for nothing" A sly smile formed on Izuku lips, his tongue running over his lower lip as he looked into the crimson eyes of the blonde before him, a seductive, sassy tone laced his voice. Katsuki had seen this sly smile and look before and knew that it wasn't a good thing to be having right now. If this smile was to be believed then Izuku was going to be in rut soon and it made some sense, he had been unconscious for over a month and never had his last rut, so his body was making up for it by bringing it on now that he was awake.

"Deku!" Katsuki growled to try and bring the greenette back into the room, back to the reason he was brought over here in the first place. It was a bad idea for him to fall for his inner beast when there was an Omega and another Alpha in the in the room, he had no idea how this was going to affect Athena if he went into a full-blown rut, but he wanted to see Shoto fall to his knees again and beg under Izukus immense pheromones.

Izuku let go of Athena hand and rolled his shoulder to stretch and relax, bringing him back from the pull he was feeling from his inner beast, gaining control again and he looked at the blonde once again.

"Sorry Kacchan"

"s'fine nerd. Fuck, where do I even begin"

"How about you tell them about the Rouges you read about in myths?" Shoto said, drawing his presence once again to the greenette in the room, his head snapped to the Alpha and he just looked as he spoke, judging him from a distance.

"Rouges, Rouge class or bond breakers as they were called only effects Alphas and Omegas, Betas can't become them due to their DNA make up or some shit! The Rogues are known to be able force any gender, whether it be of the same type as their own or not into submission, apparently they don't respond to any suppressants of any kind and their ruts and heats are more intense".

Izuku was on his feet and pacing back and force in the room, this news was shocking for him, his ruts were already unbearable even with Katsuki to help him but hearing they were going to be worse was making his mind reel causing him to release his pheromones subconsciously, the others in the room prickled to the sour scent. Katsuki took a shaky breath before he got up from his seat and staggered over to the distraught Alpha pacing the room, he grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into a tight hug, placing his head into the crook of his neck so he could smell the calming pheromone that Katsuki was releasing. Izuku initially released a low growl from the sudden touch but when he was hit with the soothing scent of cinnamon he relaxed into the blonde and his mind slightly calmed, if only enough to control his own pheromones.

"Thanks, Kacchan" he whispered to the blonde and was released from his hold before going back to sitting on the end of Athena's bed.

"Izuku, listen I read that Rouges are sometimes linked together and can die if they are too far apart, but that seemed to be only when they shared a strong bond to each other. They said there was a way to help but I'm fucking sure you're not going to like it?"

"What is it Kacchan, we need to know even if I don't like it".

Everyone in the room was now looking at the blonde and he sighed before placing his head in hands, reasting his elbows on his knees, this wasn't going to be easy, and he knew that Izuku being near his rut was not going to take this information without his inner beast rearing it aggressive and domineering head.

"FUCK! We don't even know if this is going to work. It was a long ass time ago and things have changed. There may be a fucking different way"

"JUST FUCKING SAY IT KACCHAN"

"You both must be bitten by different Alphas to severe the connection to one another, when your bitten by an Alpha your DNA over rights any and all connections you have to the other Rouge, you'll end up breaking your bond with Athena"

The silence in the room was deafening and they all sat there taking in the information they had just heard. Only one of the Alphas in the room saw this as a positive, a way to get the thing he wanted and a way to stay in the situation the trio was facing. A small smirk formed on his face before he lowered his head to hide it from the others, if they knew he was thinking this then they wouldn't go with it. He had to come up with a way to convince them to all to doing it and a way for him to be the one to bite her. After a few more minutes Izuku found his voice once more, but this time it was full of worry.

"Breaking our bond! How, won't that…?"

"Deku, listen to me, this is all that I know, and we don't know if it is true, these are fucking myths for fuck's sake, they could all be fucking false. There is no real proof to any of this and I am not willing to let you go through with this if you could die, seeing you die once on my was enough"

"Kacchan. I…don't" as tears started to pool in his emerald eyes.

"Come here nerd!" was all that Katsuki said as he could see the inner turmoil written on the greenette's face. Izuku walked slow and dejected from Athena's bed and sat in Katsuki lap for a hug, the Alpha released his calming pheromones once more as he wrapped his arms around his friends' body and when he felt the shaking of the greenette subside he just patted his hair, wating for him to once more be calm enough to talk this out.

"I think that it is worth a try." Athena said to the room suddenly, catching them off guard.

"Do you know how much it will fucking hurt being mark by someone other than your actual fucking mate?"

"I do not, as I said I am still so unsure about this whole second gender thing but if it will allow Izuku to be a hero then I feel that it is worth the try. I don't belong here in your world, it doesn't matter what happens to me, but I cannot let things go this way for Izuku and as this is the only thing that has been found, whether it is myth or not it is the only option we have".

"Athena….do you not want me….do you not feel the pull to me. Do you really want to leave me?" The tears and the rejection on Izuku face was plain for all the see, being rejected by your mate was a hard thing to take and even if she were doing this for his sake, he couldn't agree with it. She was brought to him, saved his life so now it was time he tried to reason with her and save hers.

What none of them had realised was that they were being watched and monitored, a group was waiting for the right time for them to strike and hearing how an Alpha bite could kill a hero that had gotten in their way, was too much of a chance to waste. A black swirling portal opened right beside Athena's bed before a black charred skin arm reached out and grabbed Athena by the ears, causing her to shriek in pain. The others in the room were suddenly brought to the attention when they heard her shirk and then the smell of charcoal hit them, they all began to growl but it was too late.

Screams pierced through the air as Izuku suddenly grabbed a hold of his nape, it was burning, stinging, throbbing, tearing, his vision became blurred as black and white circles danced across his eyes and his mouth ran dry from the pain in his neck and heart, his soul was being ripped apart and a tightness formed before he felt it almost snap. His body jerked in Katsuki arms, and the blonde Alpha panicked seeing his friend go pale and clammy once more, he had seen this before and he never wanted to see it again. He looked to Athena's bed and saw the black hair, charred skin and piercing blue eyes of the villain that had captured him before on Athena's bed, he was leaning over her, his hands holding her body and head forward and his mouth was around her nape. The black haired Alpha looked to up whilst his canine were filling Athena full of his venom to see the shocked faces of Baukugo and Todoroki starting back at him, his lips smirked as he continued to mark her, he loved that she was screaming in pain, that she was getting cold and clammy, that Izuku was lying in the blonde arms and slowly fading away, he loved the power he had over the others in the room as he was marking his new toy his, but he knew that this was only a temporary mark, it would wain over the next few weeks, he knew that the only way to truly claim her to knot her during her heat. He continued to lay his claim on her as she suddenly released a power bout of her pheromones, causing him to shiver and growl against her nape. Her hand reached up and held his head in place as the screams turned to moans of pleasure. His hand holding her front reached up and cupped her breast before squeezing to entice another wonderful moan out of her, he released his mouth from her nape and watched as it began to close and form a reddish tooth marked ring. He looked to the others in the room before a sick smirk lined his face. Shoto was on his feet, growling, snarling and hissing at the black haired Alpha before him and he charged to close the gap to grab Athena away but was stopped by blue flames flying towards his face, he put up an ice wall and ducked behind it whilst the flames roared overhead, once they died down he stood up once again to hear the thick and dark voice of the black hair Alpha as he scooped Athena up in his arms and pulled her back through the portal that slowed closed after the receding figure had disappeared

"I'll be taking my new toy now!".

Shoto rushed towards the portal and managed to race through before it closed, leaving Katsuki and Izuku behind. Katsuki was stunned and dazed about what had just happened, he was so focused on Izuku that he didn't have the time to react to the situation that was taking place before him and now he was left with a nearly lifeless greenette in his arms once again. He growled whilst his mind raced with what to do, it was too late to try and save Athena and Shoto, but he needed to save the man in his arms, and he was left with now with only one way to do it.

"I'm sorry nerd! This is going to fucking hurt" he said to Izuku before he positioned the greenette so he could gain access to his nape. His canines slowly pulsed as he neared Izuku's neck and when his they pierced his skin, he was full of emotions and feelings that he was not expecting to feel, he was expecting to feel pain and anger from the teen but instead he felt relief and joy bubble up inside himself. His venom course through Izukus body and when he was finished, he pulled away to see the wound close but instead of it being a reddish colour it was turning white and was confused. Why was it turning white? it should be red for a temporary mark, unless that meant, but could it really be that was that real? was Izuku really? Tears filled the blonde's eyes as his mind processed what it meant and as he moved the teen to lay back into his arms, he noticed the emerald pools looking lustful at him once more, the pain he had been through was now gone and replaced with pleasure. His breaths were coming in pants and his pheromones were melding into Katsuki's pores, but that didn't matter now, for now as it seemed Izuku was away from Athena and wasn't dying and as his shaking hand touched the green hair on his friend's head. Izuku purred so loud that it was deafening but beautiful at the same time, confirming what was racing through Katsuki's mind.

"Fuck Izuku, why? When? How?... how are you, my Omega?"
