He dropped to his knees and crawled over to her, calling her name over and over, with no reply. He wasn't thinking rationally. He knew she wouldn't reply. He knew she wouldn't wake up. Yet still he called to her. Over and over and over again. Maybe he was starting to go insane. After all, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. He kept calling and calling but she never woke up. Never responded.

The feeling of dread and horror began to leave him and was replaced by a feeling of realization. He could have saved her. Had he stopped to think for just a moment he would have realized that his own quirk which had been gifted to him could have saved her. Bullets were made of metal, and so were guns. Had he moved any one of them, he would have saved her.

He began to feel anger bubbling and boiling over within, as he slowly laid her back on the ground, then stood up. Those vibrant green eyes that always shone, now seemed void of any color. He raised his right hand, and pulled the gun out of Shigaraki's hand and toward him, catching it and turning it on the other.

'Midoriya, think about what you're about to do here. If you cross this line now, there is no coming back for you' Kurogiri said from behind him.

'I have thought about it' Midoriya replied. 'And I've decided that he needs to die as well.'

Shigaraki's eyes widened. No. He didn't want to die. He still had so much he needed to do, so much he needed to improve in the world. He was the leader of the League of Villains, therefore it was his duty to enforce his beliefs as the groups. As the realization sunk in, he wanted to run, but is feet were rooted to the spot. There was no way he was talking his way out of this one, so he hoped that Kurogiri would be able to talk the kid down for him.

'You killed her, Shigaraki. Why? Because I messed up a few times? Is that any reason to kill someones parent?' Midoriya was on the verge of hysterics. If someone couldn't calm him down, he was going to do something he would surely regret later. 'My mother did absolutely nothing to you. And you've killed her. How would you feel if the roles were switched, and I shot your mother in the head, whilst you watched?'

The others in the room were at a loss for words. They had never seen him like this before. Nobody had, but Midoriya was reaching his breaking point now. He was waving the gun he had taken from Shigaraki around like a maniac.

'I could just kill you' Midoriya said. 'But no. I want you to suffer first.'

With that, he shot Shigaraki in both of his legs. The other man collapsed to the ground, yelling in pain. Midoriya then took aim again, and shot Shigaraki in both his arms. All the training Shigaraki had given Midoriya was now coming back to bite him.

Having a revolver meant that Midoriya had one bullet left, and he knew exactly where to put it. Shigaraki had resorted to rolling on the floor and mumbling to himself. Midoriya ignored him, raised the gun to just the right height, looked Shigaraki in the eyes, and fired.

Mina Ashido had received a call from Yaoyorozu and was now hurrying to the school as fast as her sickly figure would carry her. Her normal bright pink colored skin was now an ugly shade of purple. Anyone would be able to tell from a mile away that she didn't look very well. But the way Yaoyorozu spoke on the phone, it sounded very serious.

Around twenty minutes after her call with Yaoyorozu ended, she finally reached the school. Everyone was there, besides her boyfriend. She was wondering where he was, but she wouldn't have to ponder it for long, as Yaoyorozu just cut straight to the point.

'Mina, due to recent events and surfacing evidence, we have come to the conclusion that Midoriya is working with the villains' she said.

Mina was shocked, to say the least. Granted, she had only known Izuku for a few days, but she felt she knew him better than anyone did. Even Bakugou, who had known him for years, most likely didn't know him better than her.

He had always seemed like such a nice person. The least likely out of anybody in their class to be a villain.

'How did you find out?' she asked Yaoyorozu.

'A little under a year ago, I met Midoriya at the park, a flash went off and I heard him say the name 'Kurogiri' before he disappeared' Todoroki spoke up. 'This Kurogiri guy was one of a large group of villains that attacked us at the USJ today.'

'There was also footage of Midoriya breaking into the records room the day the news reporters got onto the grounds on Tuesday. He had pulled up a schedule file before taking a photo of it. We only found the footage because we realized that particular five minutes was missing from the tapes' Yaoyorozu said. 'Luckily, the school has a backup for all the security tapes which weren't deleted.'

'Okay. So what you are saying is that Midoriya broke into the school records and took a photo of the schedule, and also that he knows one of the villains. But is that all you need to incriminate him like this?' Mina asked.

'Just before you got here, we received word from the hospital that the rescue hero No. 13 is dead and that Mr Aizawa will never see again. If Midoriya is indeed involved then he will need to be brought to justice for his involvement' Yaoyorozu said.

'Okay, let me call him' Mina said. 'I'll see if I can convince him to come in for questioning quietly.'

She took out her phone and pulled up her contacts, clicking Midoriya's name. They could all hear a ringing, but it was coming from Midoriya's bag which he had left on the bus. Clearly he had left his phone there as well, so there was no way to get a hold of him.

'Damn it!' Mina shouted as she put her phone away again. 'Now we will never find him.'

'Kurogiri, I need a favor from you' Midoriya said.

'Of course, Midoriya. What is it?' Kurogiri asked.

'I need you to get me access to every electronic device in the entire city, or find someone who can' Midoriya replied.

'I can do it, Midoriya' Kurogiri told him. 'But it might take a few hours.'

'Well, whilst I wait for you, I guess I'll clean up this mess I made' Midoriya said, gesturing to the two dead bodies lying on the floor. 'We will need to move though. There is no way that nobody heard those six gunshots. The police could be here any minute.'

'Well then let's take this elsewhere' Kurogiri said, opening a portal and walking through, and Midoriya following close behind, carrying his mother and the now freshly reloaded revolver having just found some bullets in Shigaraki's pocket with with him.

Upon walking through, Midoriya realized that Kurogiri had taken him to the number one most watched news station in the entire country. 'You may not need me to hack into every device in the city, when you can broadcast yourself to tens of millions of homes in the country' Kurogiri told him.

'Thank you, Kurogiri' Midoriya said. 'Now if you'll excuse me, I have a broadcast to interrupt.' With that, he marched off toward the broadcasting area, reaching it rather quickly as Kurogiri had teleported them very close to the room.

He walked inside the room and immediately shot one of the news anchors in the head with incredible precision, killing the man instantly. 'Listen up!' he shouted. 'Keep that camera rolling, everyone in the country is gonna hear what I have to say.'

He walked right in front of the camera, made himself look sort of presentable, even though he was covered in his mother's blood.

'Good afternoon, Japan' he began. 'My name is Izuku Midoriya and I have a request to make. About fifteen minutes ago my mother was killed by a group called League of Villains' leader Tomura Shigaraki. I have been part of this organization for a little under a year now and we just attacked the USJ this afternoon which had me and my classmates at Yuuei High School within it. In a blind rage I killed Tomura Shigaraki which now makes me the leader of the League of Villains.'

He paused for a moment, before continuing.

'The request I have is for all the wannabe villains in Japan. Join me and we will start a war against the so-called heroes that this society puts on a pedal. If any of you come across a hero, do not be afraid to take them on. If you see a bank, don't be afraid to rob it. Finally, if you see a civilian, don't be afraid to kill them.'

To emphasize his point, he turned toward the other two news anchors behind him, and shot them both, before turning back to the camera.

'On behalf of all the villains of Japan. I, Izuku Midoriya, am declaring a war on the heroes of this country.'

He finished with a polite bow, before firing a bullet into the camera.

A mere ten minutes after the broadcast ended, half the country was in complete chaos. Midoriya, had started a civil war within Japan, and he felt amazing. His eyes had finally been opened to the horrors of the world, and all it took was somebody killing his mother. He had since gotten over it, losing almost all his humanity and sense of morality in the process.

Now there was just one thing he needed to take care of to be free of the shackles of the heroes.

Mina.

That is the end of book one. With a civil war started, how will it be resolved, if it is resolved. You will just have to wait and find out. I will be back with the 2nd book in this trilogy very soon but I have a request to make.

I would like one of you to create a cover for this book. You will get full credit for it. I don't want to make it cause I'm lazy and I want to get you guys more involved anyway. If anyone wants to do that for me that would be really great.

Finally, thank you all for sticking with me through this story. I would like to hear your feedback and what I can improve on for when the next story comes out.

Be back soon
