Chapter One Collapse
by ruin zora
IZUKUS POV.
That day was the last day of middle school. Izuku had a bad morning and a terrible afternoon. izuku had been beaten and burned then told to die by his now ex childhood friend katsuki bakugo. as he walked into the underpass he just had these thoughts of death. then like god had come to smite him a villain made of sludge attacked him and was beginning to strangle him.
As he fought to breathe like an act of mercy an angel appeared in red white and blue spandex. all might shouted his attack to the delight of the captured boy and dread of the villain. "Detroit smash" the small fragile boy fell to the pavement as he was knocked out by the recoil of the attack.
ALLMIGHTS POV.
All might isn't the brightest man after all the sludge villain he had been chasing gave him the slip. a few more times than he was comfortable admitting but he will admit slapping awake the boy who was in the crossfire. ok not his brightest moment he very well could have given him a concussion but despite. This lack of foresight made the boy fine pretty fanboy-ish but then again most of the population was. as he tried to make a get away the little green kid had wanted to ask him a question. Now he was running out of time but he didn't want to deal with it. that type of obsessive fan so he heard the kid out. That's when the boy uttered the words that would change the future forever.
IZUKU'S POV.
"do you think i can become a hero without a quirk" and that's when all might made his biggest mistake. "no" a single word that completely shattered izuku's will to move forward he could only stare. all might have left him alone at the underpass and he had been staring at the spot where all might once stood.
After the sun had finally gone down, Izuku had snapped out of his mental trauma. He then began to make his way towards the place he'd take his last breath. Aldera Junior high school as he began to climb to the roof. He made it to the top; he looked out to the world that abandoned him and turned him down this path. He then stepped towards the ledge as he eyed the ground with his shoe's. placed near him as izuku smiled for the last time. expanded his wings as he felt the rush of wind against him his last thoughts were filled with his mothers sad smile. As with a sickening crunch izuku midoriya was no more.
TSUKAUCHI POV.
Detective naomasa tsukauchi hated some aspects of his job. nothing compared to what he had to do now as he knocked on the apartment door. of one inko midoriya when the door opened to reveal a chubby short green haired woman with an apron on. "Good evening officer, is there something i could do for you" asked the woman before him as he took off his hat, sighing then said. "i have some unfortunate news for you ma'am you might want to sit down". Tsukauchi said with a sad tone to his voice the mother was very worried. Quickly ushering the detective in after she had offered him some tea. Tsukauchi then got serious as he looked into the worried eyes of the mother of the boy who had just died. "ahem it's with a heavy heart that I must inform you that izuku midoriya died today at 7:15 pm". a moment of silence had taken hold of the room then the tears and cries of a now mourning mother.
KATSUKIS POV.
katsuki bakugo had a terrible day today first the hag had ruined his breakfast then that fuckin deku. had the gaul to sigh up to u.a and then as if that wasnt enough this shitty sludge villain had attacked him. It took the pros a few hours to get him out today was just the worst possible day. full of nothing but shitty luck he then relaxed as he fell asleep come morning. The hag had been crying as some plain looking jackass in a trench coat was looking sadly at his parents. That's when the hag ran to me and hugged me while saying sorry, confused I turned to my old man.
With a broken voice he said "izuku's gone son" everything around me stopped. for a brief moment everything I had ever done flowed back into my head. As tears started to fall from my eyes every insult, every punch, every burn I was blinded by the praise. the world view that everyone placed on me that I didn't realize "I had killed my childhood friend I killed deku- izuku he was dead and it was my fault I killed him I told him to jump". I screamed In my mind as my knees gave out and my parents held me up.
Its been two weeks since the day izuku died his mother gave me his notebooks. saying how they might help me Become the hero izuku wanted to be. I hate to admit it but when it came to quirks no one knew their stuff better then izuku. Speaking of him, his funeral is scheduled for today. I almost didn't want to show up. I couldn't stand there and see the result of my selfishness. The hag had dragged me along as we went I was chosen to be one of his Pallbearers.
something was wrong, the others carrying the coffin knew too. quickly we got it off our shoulders And the detective. who was near the end of the coffin popped it open. Only to see that it was filled with organs and bloody bones. near the bottom pooled blood, quickly izuku's grave became a crime scene. The old man and the hag had consoled inko. who was having a mental breakdown at the fact that someone had taken her son from her again.
At best the body was missing and at worst desecrated. Who hated him enough to not let the poor boy rest, not even for a second. It was then that I decided I would find who had done this to izuku and I would bring them to justice. I promised aunty inko I would and she thanked me. so it was that day I decided to dedicate my life. to be the hero Izuku wanted and to bring peace to him and right the wrongs I committed.
EARLIER THAT NIGHT
"Man Mister Grimes this place sure is terrifying at night" the young apprentice sad eyeing the place as she walked beside the older scruffy man "ah I know the job can feel a bit creepy at times miss Kyoto but I can assure you that bringing peace to the dead is perfectly sa-" a loud crash is heard from the freezer startling the two the old man sighed tiredly "Damm brats trespassing again go call the pros for me Kyoto this will only take a minute" the old man walked away rolling up his sleeves shaking her head the employee simply walked off towards the phone
Mister Grimes had delt with alot of punks who wished to loiter and mess with the bodys in the freezer so without hesitation he opened it up only to be frozen in place as a green haired monstrosity was eating the body's in the freezer trying to back away slowly the old man was quite unfortunate as the back of his foot had knocked over a vase
with a sickening snap the head of the monster snapped and locked onto him almost inhumanly the creature twisted and snapped itself into a standing position as it now loomed over the frozen man It's facial muscles twisting into a impossible smile as it's teeth bared all that was left of the man was his dying scream as the monster ripped him apart.
Kyoto was on the phone with the hawks agency when she heard a scream worried for her boss the young woman left the phone on the table as she called out for her boss "Mr Grimes hellooo" she was halfway between the freezer and then phone when something wet dripped onto her forehead confused she looked around first then another two drops that's when she could smell the iron and coppery scent of blood looking up she saw nothing
sighing in relief the woman turned her back and made her way to the phones unaware of the thing behind her as it pounced the woman screamed "NO STOP YOUR EATING M-" Once he had finished off every last morsel of the sweet human nectar izuku finally got control of himself as his mind began to think again he could not remember anything only his name As he walked through the morgue he decided to take with him a black duster hat and scarf that was lying on the nearby rack as he hobbled his way around unsure of where he was anymore.
IZUKU'S POV.
Izuku had walked for hours now that's when he had knocked over some guy in a biker jacket apologizing in his distorted voice he tried to continue walking that's when suddenly the biker grabbed his shoulder izuku didn't hear what the man was saying as he touched his hand trying to remove it when as soon as his fingers came into contact with the man's hand it had implode in a splash of blood as everyone on the street began running and shouting for heroes izuku staired confused at his hand as the biker scooted away from him suddenly without thinking izuku grabbed the man and with all five fingers touched him this caused the man to explode in a shower of gore as izuku drank the blood off his hand and some off the street
A pro hero approached him wearing some really tacky spandex and helmet izuku didn't have time for him as he needed to drink So without paying the guy anymore attention izuku's free hand touched him and just like before he exploded as soon as he finished the two he walked away calmly from the crime scene just in time to miss the actual pros and cops izuku now remembered a few more things one being the phrase quirk less and two being the image of some woman who looked like him the day started and izuku continued walking not really sure as to where he was going but feeling that he needed to head this way like Something was calling him as he passed the gates he noticed the buildings name aldera junior high….it sounded so familiar that's when he turned his head to the
Front of the school then it all clicked for him ever awful memory of his place every cruel thing these people did and that blonde izuku snarled then he laughed at the memory of his new form and powers he smiled as he made his way into the school the thoughts of the endless torture that awaits every single person here it made him smile to listen to there screams as the aldera massacre began
room by room floor by floor izuku locked everyone in before he made his move and when the time was right and they didn't expect a thing he pounced on them one by one enjoying the fight they gave him as he continued to tear them to shreds with his power his vow to crush any and everyone who dared wrong him for izuku was there judge jury and executioner And unfortunately for these pigs they plead guilty the second they push midoriya and countless others to killing themselves once the carnage was done and izuku had drank to the point where he remembered everything he began to reflect
"I had wanted to be a hero for so long and now I have the power to be one but do I want to? heroes can't save everyone otherwise I wouldn't have died that day hmm maybe maybe there's another way…after all I cannot be the only one to have suffered to scum like this maybe they can help me find a new way to save" That's when izuku felt is a powerful pull in mustafa quickly getting up he was about to leave when he remembered something "Deku..heh yeah I'm not izuku anymore he died the minute his head hit the pavement I'm deku and I will pave the way for a new way to save the weak" Deku walked out of the destroyed school wearing his coat and hat with a proud smile as in the school all over the walls deku was written in blood almost everywhere as deku marched his way to the feeling.
