Chapter 01
It was a fine day in musutafu. The sun was shining, birds were chirping and a gentle breeze was blowing.
Now, we go to the inside of a particular apartment bedroom. Inside this apartment, we see a boy that is trying to do some DELICATE mechanical procedures. He is trying to perfect his tech, so he can attempt to take UA's entrance exam, as there's NOTHING more he wants to be, than to be a genuine hero.
However, he had a problem that most kids his age do not have. For you see, this boy is QUIRKLESS, just like 20% of the world, these days.
Did he give up, just because he's quirkless? No, no he did not. Despite all the pain that being quirkless brought him, he REFUSED to give up.
He can STILL remember what being diagnosed as quirkless did to him, and everyone around him, as well.
(the flashback of the doctor's diagnosis is the EXACT same. Everything else after, is not)
*flashback, after the diagnosis*
Izuku, honey, what are you doing?" inko asked her 4 yr old son.
Izuku said, with a heart FULL of passion, "Momma, i'm not going to let being quirkless stop me from being a hero", before he went back to reading books about mechanics and chemistry.
Inko, understandably, was VERY worried about her son being a hero, when he can't even defend himself from quirks.
Inko then, regrettably, said the ONE thing that caused izuku's mind to crack: "izuku, i'm sorry, but you CAN'T be a hero".
Izuku, understandably, was shocked and rather confused. "Momma? Why are you being mean?"
Inko, then, put her foot down, causing his heart to crack a bit, and his mind to crack a bit more: izuku, you will not be a hero! You will be either a house husband or an accountant, and that is final!"
(last days of aldera high school)
(i do not own any of the songs or artists listed, i just really like the songs)
Izuku was listening to ozzy osbourne, metallica and various other rock and metal bands from the pre-quirk era. Most notably, with his mother not knowing, he mostly listens to songs about death, particularly, songs like "waltz of the bone king" and "to death we dance".
When izuku got to his seat, he wasn't paying attention to his surroundings. So, naturally, his former childhood-friend-turned-bully decided that this "deku" had the GALL to ignore HIM, WHEN THAT USELESS EXTRA SHOULD'VE BEEN GROVELING AT HIS FEET. So, katsuki used his quirk on the top of izuku's desk to get his attention.
"What do you want, katsuki? I was in the middle of my music" izuku said in an uncaring voice. Katsuki said "stupid deku, you're supposed to be groveling at my feet, not ignoring my greatness!" katsuki yelled proudly, not caring about whether or not the teachers heard him, since they nearly worship katsuki (surprised that he don't have fangirls).
"So?" izuku asked in an uncaring deadpan voice. Katsuki heard the tone of voice that he used, and he was NOT happy with it. However, JUST before he could "put the useless deku of a nerd" in his place again, the bell rang, and the last class of the year had begun. Katsuki seethed in rage, that he was unable to put him in his place. He'll wait for the end of class.
(end of the school day)
"DEKU~~~~!" Katsuki yelled at the top of his lungs. "What do you want, bakugou?" izuku asked. Katsuki decided to leave a GOOD impression on the useless nerd before him. "Listen up nerd, i'm only going to say this once: all heroes have a humble beginning, i'm going to be the ONLY hero that will EVER appear from this crappy school. So, do me a favor, and do NOT go to UA, not the business course, not the support course, not the general course and DEFINITELY not the hero course." just before he finished asking for the favor, he put his hands on izuku's shoulders, and finished with "You won't do any of that, would you?"
Izuku, though, had gained a tolerance for all kinds of injuries due to all the physical training he put his training through, in addition to the mental training (reading and memorizing MASSIVE amounts of chemical formulas and mechanical stuff (not sure what the word is) in addition to playing EXCEEDINGLY DIFFICULT strategy games, to promote his analytical tendencies.
After grabbing katsuki's hands, izuku twisted them, broke both of katsuki's wrists in three different places, then rabbit-punched katsuki in his throat. After he laid katsuki on the ground with his attacks, izuku said "you can try to intimidate me all you want. No matter what you do, you can't stop me from taking UA's entrance exam.
After izuku left school, katsuki managed to get his throat and his wrists healed. During izuku's walk home, he was cornered by a villain made of sludge.
(rest happens like canon)
After all might lands on the rooftop, and izuku managed to catch his breath, all might began to berate izuku for his reckless actions. Before all might could get any traction with the lecture going, izuku asked him a VERY important question: can a person without a quirk become a hero?
All might was shocked. Not only by the interruption, but by the question, as well. "Wait, you're quir-" was as far as all might got before he was engulfed in off-white smoke. When the smoke cleared, it revealed a man that had so little meat on his bones, that it looked like a gentle breeze would kill him.
"The fuck?" izuku asked. "Aw, crap" the man said. "Who the ever-loving fuck are YOU?" izuku asked. "I'm all mi- *cue bloody spewing noises*"
"Why are you like this, all might" izuku asked. "I shall tell you, but you must promise to me that what you're about to find out, you must NOT share with your friends." "you're assuming that i even HAVE friends, all might" izuku said, and all might cringed at that. All might's explanation about his injury is the same as canon.
"Regarding your question, about whether or not a quirkless person can be a hero," all might began. "No, please all might, no. please don't say it" izuku BEGGED in his head. "No, i honestly think that a quirkless person can't be a hero."
With that, izuku's mind and heart almost shattered completely, and the lifelike glow within his eyes dimmed to the point where it was hard to see. "I see. Goodbye, all might," izuku said. All might was a bit concerned for him, but he let the boy leave.
(Izuku's home)
"I'm back" izuku called out. There was no answer. Looking at the fridge, izuku saw a note with his mothers handwriting.
Izuku, i'm going out for the night
Dinner is in the microwave
Mom
Izuku was surprised at that, but not too much. After all, it's not the first time this happened, since it began when he turned 14.
"Well, since my mother's not going to be here tonight, i'll work on my chemistry ideas"
(timeskip to the end of the explanation for the the practical exam)
(izuku will be napping, since he was up late the night before, trying to make his chemical compound as close to perfect as he can get it)
"Excuse me, on the printout, it show that there are only three types of robots, but you are saying that there are four. If this is an error for the prestigious university of UA, then it is ENTIRELY UNACCEPTABLE"
The crowd was STUNNED at this outburst
"And you" the kid continued. "Huh, wha?" izuku said groggily. "Were you paying ANY attention?! If not then you should leave!" izuku has had ENOUGH of this guy. "SHUT THE EVER LOVING FUCK UP!" the crowd quieted. "Now," izuku said in a quieter voice "i don't know who the hell you think you are, but you are NOT my parent, you are NOT a high ranking member of the government, and you are NOT a teacher here! I was napping because A) i was up late last night, going over some stuff and didn't get much sleep and B) i read ALL ABOUT the printout and what's on it. If would've just WAITED, then present mic would've finished his explanation that you so RUDELY interrupted. Now, why why don't you shut the fuck up, sit the hell down, and let present mic finish the explanation?" izuku said quite bluntly. the teen he yelled at sat down, and tried to ignore the people laughing at him.
(timeskip to when the acceptance letter comes in)
"Where is it? The acceptance letter should've been here by now" izuku thought.
Suddenly, inko cried out "izuku, you're acceptance letter is here".
She gave him the letter, which izuku opened. Out of the letter, fell a holographic projector. In the hologram, showed a strange creature-thing.
Hello there. What am i? A mouse? A bear? A dog? Who knows? All that matters, is that i'm the principal of UA.
Now, i'm sure that you're anxious about you're results, so he~re they are. You actually got a perfect score on the written portion of the exam. However, while you were able to NEARLY get enough points, via rescue points you were not able to accumulate enough points in the physical portion.
Therefore, i'm sorry to say this, but you have failed the entrance exam for the heroics class. However, you are able to join the general studies, due to the written exam.
I hope to see you here when the school year starts
The hologram went out. Inko looked at her son. She saw that his face was near expressionless, but you could see the amount of HURT in his eyes.
"Mom, i'm going out for a walk. Should be back soon." izuku said.
"Alright, sweety, just be careful" said inko.
After walking around for over 3 hours, trying to clear his head and to get rid of the heartbreak, izuku saw an abandoned building. Upon closer inspection, the sign, which was somewhat intact, said "ace chemicals". Intrigued, izuku began to explore. Even if it was only to take his mind off the failed entrance exam.
Upon exploring the abandoned building, izuku saw an uncovered vat of chemicals that's been sitting for who-knows-how-long. Seeing the vat, izuku recalls something. Katsuki told it to him last year.
(flashback to last year)
If you want a quirk so damn badly, then why not jump off a building and die, praying that you'll have a quirk in your next life
(back to present)
"Why the hell not? I have nothing left to live for, with my dreams being crushed on so thoroughly"
With that in mind (as well as despair, if you wanna be literal), he jumps into the vat
After spending what seemed like DAYS, when in reality it was closer to a few hours at most, the container wit the chemicals (and izuku) broke, spilling both izuku and the chemicals. When izuku came out, his physical appearance had changed. His hair went from a wild forest green to an emerald green. His skin paled to that of ulquiorra schifer from bleach (but without the black lip or the teal lines from his eyes), his eyes blackened to the point where they were as dark as the abyss at the bottom of the deepest ocean.
"Why am i alive?" izuku wondered, before thinking, "this can be my new life. My old life was SUCH a FUCKING JOKE!
His eyes, while black, held a light of DEEP insanity. His smile, which was nonexistent before this point, truly began to show, began to show insanity.
"Well now, since this is my new life, and my old life did not want me to be a hero, what kind of chaos shall i create?"
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HAHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
(A few months later, at a little bar not too far from musutafu)
"Kurogiri, why the hell are we doing this, again?" asked the guy with hands all over his body. The bartender, kurogiri, replied, "shigaraki, sensei said that you had to do this. At least to make deals WITHOUT his interference. He said that it would be a good experience for you to grow".
Suddenly, their guests appear at the door. The door opens. At the door is stain, and the two who accompanied him. The first, a guy that has burned skin that is only held together by surgical staples. He has a few piercings in one ear and his hair is the color of burned wood, he looks like he should be in his last year of college. His name (in case the description wasn't enough) is dabi. The other, a girl, looks similar to a vampire. She has messy yellow hair in messy buns on the sides of her head, yellowish eyes, semi-pointed fangs, and has a sailor fuku covered in a tan-ish beige cardigan. This girls name, is himiko toga
