Chapter One: My name is Akuma:

It was a cool, windy night and Akuma was playing an acoustic guitar while watching television. The low hum of the strings registered across the walls of the room and so did the ranting buzz of the TV.

As Akuma stopped to tune a string that had begun to sound off, the program currently playing was cut abruptly by an announcement.

"Breaking news! A villain is on the run after robbing the bank! We'll keep everyone informed if anything else happens, but please do not leave your homes because the villain is a D rank.'' The news anchor said in a calm, but loud voice. Akuma placed his guitar down and sighed.

"Just when the episode was getting good," Akuma muttered. As he stood up from the couch to head to bed for the night, the news anchor started talking more about the situation.

"I heard that All Might is on the scene stopping the villain!" he said in a loud and happy voice.

Akuma just ignored it and continued to head to bed, after turning off the TV. While he was heading upstairs to his room, he thought to himself, *"I guess dad is going to be home late tonight again." * Akuma made it to his bedroom, crashing down on the bed, falling asleep within a matter of minutes.

Akuma was born with two quirks, but he only knows how to use his mother's quirk (Nitōryū) he can summon any sword out of his hands, also he can use a quirk called (Air Thrust) Akuma can strong or maybe Sharpe force of air out of his hands.

But Akuma's third quirk is still a mystery to him. He only used it once by accident on a classmate.

"Hey, Akuma!" The classmate said statistically, "What is it now Ikari?" Akuma said in an annoyed voice while looking at Ikari.

Ikari walked closer to Akuma's desk and said "Have you been talking to my girl bruh?!"

Akuma looked deep into Ikari eyes like he was looking into his soul, "listen wh-"

Ikari stops Akuma mid-sentence and said, "No, you listen here punk it doesn't matter that you're All Might's son I'll still kill if I catch you talking to my girl again you hear me!"

Akuma got up from his desk and tried to walk away from the situation because he didn't want to get into any fights today, but Ikari wasn't going to let Akuma leave the classroom. "Where do you think you're going, Akuma?!" Ikari uses his quirk (magnetic) he can pull any living option to him by force "Got you Akuma I told you're not living the classroom alive!"

He said while laughing. Akuma tried to pull and push himself off Ikari, but with no success; Ikari pushed a desk to Akuma's back and he kept doing this to him nonstop. Akuma screamed and cried for help, but sadly no one came or heard his cries he wasn't able to move.

He couldn't even feel his legs. Ikari walked up to him and whispered "you're so weak, wonder why your mother died because she was weak just like you." Ikari pulls his arm back and Akuma knows if he doesn't block or even move his body this punch, he's not going to be walking up till tomorrow morning.

Ikari punched almost connected, but Akuma moved his hands fast to Ikari's face to push him back a little more than out of nowhere he started feeling weird like something is happening to his body that almost makes him want to puke. Akuma gets up and sees Ikari's eyes rolled back inside his head.

There was no pulse coming from his body. Akuma ran out of the classroom and ran all the way home. That was the day he found out about his other quirk that can make people go brain dead by just touching them.

The next morning….

"Why do I keep having dreams about last week?" Akuma sits in his pitch-black room thinking to himself about what his father told him yesterday morning. "So, I might or might not be teaching at U.A High this new semester." He said while cooking breakfast for Akuma. "W-wait you're going to be teaching at U.A or you're messing with me?!"

Akuma looks at him waiting for a yes or no answer. All might laugh and say "Yes I'm for real Akuma." Akuma smiles and starts thinking to himself "I hope he will be my teacher, that'll be so cool!" Akuma's joyful face turned into a depressed one.

"It doesn't even matter I'm never getting into UA after what happened last week."

All Might turned and looked at Akuma while taking a sip of his coffee.

"Listen Akuma, it was a freak accident and you were protecting yourself." Akuma got aggravated after what All Might said and he yelled at him: "I killed my classmate's dad. There was no freak accident. I'm a goddamn monster UA will never accept me!"

All Might looks at Akuma and chuckles "Listen, my son, you're not a monster because a real monster won't show remorse for what he did you understand.

Plus you only put the kid in the coma so he's fine I also talk to the principal of U.A High yesterday and told him about how much hardcore training you put yourself through to be the next PRO HERO! Like your mother used to be." Akuma just smiles.

Akuma finally gets up from his bed to turn on his bedroom light Akuma looks at his phone to see what time it is "It's six-thirty a.m I guess it's time for training." Akuma puts his phone down on his bedroom dresser next to the picture of him and his mother.

Akuma opens his dresser to grab and put on his training clothes, "Well it seems like I'm ready to go train! Oh wait, I almost forgot something!" Akuma grabbed this cassette player that has the name *Amber Raven* written on it.

The cassette player was originally owned by Akuma's mother, it's a mix of the 80s and 90s rock, pop, r&b, and rap, "I can't believe I almost forgot about you mother."

Akuma grabs his backpack and heads outside. He looked around for a bit to make sure no one was going on an early morning jog, "Alright it seems like no one's out here."

Akuma pressed the play button on his mother's cassette player *Everyone Wants To Rule The World* started playing through his headphones, "Ok let's go!"

Akuma squats down like he's about to jump," Wind launch!" Wind blasted out of his hands that sent him flying upward. Akuma keeps using *wind launch* to keep him in the air, after hours of flying around Akuma gets tired and landed on a nearby roof, *Akuma breathing heavily* "I-I should just roof jump to Mrs. Suzuki convenience store."

Akuma started jumping from roof to roof till he made it to Mrs. Suzuki's convenience store. "I finally made it!" Akuma walks into the store, "Good morning Mrs. Suzuki!"

Akuma grabbed some snacks, a sandwich, and a couple of bottles of Ramune. He walked up to Mrs. Suzuki, "Good Morning Akuma is that everything?" Akuma thinks to himself, "Oh wait, do you have the new volume of One Piece. Also, how's your daughter Aimi?"

Mrs. Suzuki grabbed the 93rd volume of One Piece from his bag, "You're lucky I saved this for you cause a lot of people were buying it, also Aimi is fine she's worried about you after what happened last week at school."

Akuma opens his backpack to grab his wallet and takes out one thousand yen ($8.66) from his wallet. "Here you go. I know, I feel really bad for not talking to her. I'll tell her sorry on the phone later. I'm kind of busy today with training for U.A High!

The Speaking of U.A is Aimi going because she got a cool quirk that'll help heal people!" Mrs. Suzuki puts Akuma's food and manga in his backpack, while saying this, "I know Akuma, but sadly she said she doesn't want to go to U.A she's going to take over her mom's flower shop." Akuma looked at him "WHAT!?"

Akuma said with a suppressed expression, "Is she at the flower shop right now?" Mrs. Suzuki sighed and said "yes Akuma she is, but I don't think you can convi-" Before Mrs. Suzuki was able to finish his sentence, Akuma was already out of the store. Akuma was flying in the air using *Air launcher*. He started to think about Aimi, "Why don't Aimi want to go to the U.A? I need to convince her to go!"

—–—–—–—––––—

An hour later….

"I'm finally here, God I hate birds LIKE WHY THE HELL CAN'T THEY MOVE OUT MY WAY!"

Akuma continued ranting about birds like a crazy man for two minutes. A girl with black hair with purple highlights who's around 5'2 feet, with an eye color the same as a Sakura leaf, "Hey Akuma!" she said in an annoyed tone. Akuma turns around to look at the girl and smiles nervously "Oh! Hey Aimi how have you been?"

Aimi started walking to Akuma with her head down, "I'm sorry-" Before he was able to finish saying sorry Aimi smacked him. Akuma was speechless; the only words he said was "I'm sorry for upsetting you Aimi."

Aimi looked at him and grabbed his hand, "Come inside so I can make you some Sakura tea to help your face and your foot heal faster."

Aimi's quirk is called *Sakura* She can summon Sakura leaf to use to heal people's broken bones, cuts, and sometimes people's sickness. Every time Aimi goes anywhere, she has a bottle of sakura tea. When anyone is injured and a hero or the police are not able to get there fast, Aimi gives them a sip of tea to heal. Aimi gives a cup of tea to Akuma, "Careful it's hot."

Akuma drinks the tea and he can feel his whole tired body feeling better in seconds, "Your tea is always so good Aimi!" Akuma said with a smile. Aimi blushed and also smiled and said, "thanks." "So, tell me why aren't you going to the U.A.?" Aimi sighed, "Did my parents tell you to come to convince me to go?" Akuma shook his head, "No I came here on my own free will I promise."

Aimi rolled her eyes and said, "Like you promise to call me and text me every day to tell me that you were okay after running away from home last week because you got in that serious fight that left a classmate brain dead and in a coma!"

Akuma sat there quietly after what she'd said. "It wasn't my fault and I'm sorry for worrying you.

The reason why I wasn't able to call was that my phone was dead and I was too scared to go into any of the stores to charge it."

Akuma said in a breaking, almost crying voice, he was still beating up about the event that even talking about it almost makes him want to die because deep down he feels like a monster.

Aimi sees him shaking his leg up and down nervously; she looks up at his face and sees that he's trying to hold back tears from his eyes.

Aimi walked over to Akuma and hugged him, "I know it wasn't your fault Akuma and I forgive you for not calling me. So please don't give those waterfall eyes."

After all of that Akuma and Aimi talked about why she decided to not go to the U.A. High. "So, you have to tell me that the only reason you're not going to the U.A. is that you got to help your mother with the flower shop," Akuma said.

"Yeah, that's it honest," Aimi said, Akama got up and grabbed his backpack, "Okay, I guess. Will, I should get going."

Akuma said while walking out of the door, "Ok, make sure you don't hit another bird with your foot."

Akuma waved Aimi goodbye and launched himself up into the air. Aimi looked up and saw him leave, she started thinking to herself, *I wish he stayed longer. I already missed him. I'm such a loser. *

While roof jumping Akuma sees a giant villain breaking things. So, Akuma decides to sit on top of the roof of a building and watch the whole thing go down while eating the stuff he bought at Mrs. Suzuki's store.

"Cool, the pro heroes are here," Akuma said while eating a sandwich. The Heroes that showed up to deal with this villain are Death Arms his quirk is strength, *sigh* "Death arm quirk is so basic." Akuma said in an unimpressed voice.

Another hero joined the battle to stop the villain, the pro hero Kamui Woods. His quirk is Arbor, "I think Dad asked him to build the treehouse for me when I was seven, or was it Endeavor I don't remember."

Akuma said again while sipping on ramune. Then Mt. Lady knocked out the villain with one kick, "Woah she's huge! And freaking hot!"

Akuma said in an excited voice. After everything was done Akuma started heading home for the day. He finally made it back home and as he walked through the front door, he saw a note next to the couch, "Oh it's from dad." Akuma started reading the note.

*Akuma, I might be home late again tonight so I left you 5,745 yen so you can order yourself something to eat for dinner tonight. Love: Dad*,

Akuma put the note down on the coffee table and laid his body on the couch while watching the news. The news is talking about a villain named Sludge who is holding this middle schooler as a hostage in the city.

"That kid kinda looks like Katsuki from school," Akuma said while slowly falling asleep. Akuma fell asleep while watching the news.

"Run Akuma!" A half Chinese and African-American woman in her mid-twenty with long and beautiful dark red hair with purple highlights. Her eyes are a dark magenta color. She's bleeding from a stab wound in the chest, her arm looked like it had been chopped off.

"Akuma, run far away from here okay? You have to survive for me." The woman said while hugging Akuma tightly and kissing his forehead.

"But I can't leave you! I'll die with you dammit!" Akuma said while crying and tightly hugging the woman back.

The woman pushed Akuma off her and pushed him away from her. "Run Akuma! All Might find you and take care of you okay!"

Akuma started running away and when he turned back to look at the woman she smiled and said something. Another woman with a giant spear rushed towards the half Chinese and African American woman and beheaded her. Akuma looked in horror and shouted, "MOMMY!"

Akuma woke up in cold sweats and tears, "Mother." The front door opened and Toshinori Yagi (All Might) came in and saw Akuma on the couch with tears going down his face.

"Akuma what's wrong, why are you crying?" Akuma looked up at Toshinori Yagi and said, "I had the same dream about my mother's death ten years ago."

Toshinori Yagi went over to Akuma to comfort him, "It had to be traumatizing for a five-year-old to see their mother get killed like that."

Toshinori Yagi said to himself. He looked over at the coffee table and saw that Akuma didn't use the money he left for him. Akuma saw him look at the money and said, "Sorry I didn't use the money to feed myself. I was really tired when I got home from training."

"There's no need to apologize, Akuma, we can just go out for ramen," Toshinori said while getting up from the sofa. Akuma smiled and nodded his head. They both left the house and walked to the Ramen shop while walking Akuma started thinking to him,

"The stars are beautiful tonight.'' He looked at Toshinori, "I like hanging out with dad when is not busy being the symbol of peace, but he's a great foster parent even though he's barely home.''

After a thirty-minute walk, they finally made it to the Ramen shop. They walked away into the restaurant and took a seat. The waiter walked up to them and asked, "What well you two fine gentlemen are going to be having this evening?" Akuma and Toshinori both said, "Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen please." Akuma pulled his phone out and started looking at memes on Reddit, but Toshinori took his phone away from him.

"Dad! Come on, give me my phone back!" Akuma said while reaching over the table trying to snatch his phone back, but Toshinori put it in his pocket.

"Akuma you'll get your phone back when we get home cause right now father and son time." Akuma looked at Toshinori and sighed, "Fine I guess." The waiter came back with their food and Toshinori and Akuma talked about their day while eating ramen.

After their meal, Akuma and Toshinori walked home from the Ramen Shop.

"So, dad you're going to give One for All to a random fanboy named Izuku Midoriya?" Akuma said with a confused face.

"Yes, I am, do you have a problem with that Akuma?" He said to Akuma.

"No, I don't have problems with that at all because I know I'm already strong enough for U.A High," Akuma said in a confident voice.

Toshinori looked at Akuma and said, "Well you do have ten months till the Entrance Exam."

Akuma ask Toshinori for a favor, "Uh dad can I have a copy of the American Dream Plan, please"

Toshinori looked at Akuma and smiled while also transforming into his muscle form, "YES YOU CAN MY SON!" Toshinori spit out blood after saying that.

"You idiot!" Akuma said while laughing.

They finally made it home and Akuma went up to his room to go to sleep because he knows the next ten months are going to be exhausting and difficult. But Akuma knows he's not going to give up on his dream to be the next pro hero. Akuma laid down on his bed and fell into another dreamless slumber. He woke up the next and went downstairs and saw the American Dream Plan on the table,

"Thanks, dad, well it's time to put me in much more hardcore training."

Akuma trained every day for ten months straight and finally, the day came, and now there are only ten days left before the Entrance Exams begin. Akuma took those days to lay back and chill for a few hours and after those few hours are over, he lifts 300-pound weights for three hours for the last ten days. He never gives up even when he can feel his body breaking. He kept going Akuma knows heroes never give up so why should he. He is going to be the next pro hero like he promised his mother ten years ago, before her death. Akuma wakes early in the morning on the day of the exam. He made himself breakfast and saw a note on the fridge and it was from Toshinori telling him good luck at the exam. Akuma ate his breakfast and grabbed his mother's cassette tape and air-launched himself to U.A High.

"I'm finally here! My hero journey starts today. I'll make you proud mom."

Akuma said to himself while standing at the entrance of U.A High and looking at his mother's cassette tape.
