Dark Hero

by Zayden Shofer

In the original timeline, Izuku Midoriya's dream was to become the number one hero with All Might's Quirk, but things are different in this timeline. This time, Izuku Midoriya is better known as The Invisible Villain: Deku. Only the villains know his true identity, so when he gets into UA with All Might's Quirk, the League of Villains and their master plan has been put in place.

8. The Day I Met Chizome Akaguro

It happened about three days after meeting Gran Torino as my intern.

I had been taking a walk through the streets with an ice cream bar when I looked over to see Iida confronting the hero killer, Stain.

I grinned and walked down right as Iida is thrown on the ground, Stain stabbing his sword through his arm. Stain licked the blood of the sword, stopping when he saw me. "Well, well, aren't you a sight for sore eyes?"

Iida grunted, but I knew he was frozen. I held the ice cream over his head as it melted. Iida tried to look up, but he couldn't see me.

I smiled, pulling the ice cream back. "Nice to see you again, Stain."

"Same to you, Deku."

Sh*t. Always leaving it to Stain to blow things up.

"Midoriya? What are you doing here?" Iida asked.

"Oh, you know." I leaned against the wall to where he could see me. "Enjoying the view."

I licked the ice cream as Iida continued. "Midoriya, please-"

"Oh, I'm sorry, do you not see the villain outfit?" I asked, pointing to my black outfit. "It's Deku right now."

"Deku, please…what are you doing?"

"Talking to an old friend."

Stain chuckled. "You're telling me that this Class 1-A of UA doesn't even know that you're one of the scariest villains in the world?"

I shrugged, dumping my ice cream on top of the pro hero's head. "Pretty much."

"Deku, help m-"

I groaned. "Shut. Up. You're getting on my nerves."

"D-"

I pulled the gun off my belt and pointed it at him. He flinched as I frowned. "I said. Shut. Up."

And he did.

I crawled through the window of Gran Torino's home and immediately changed back into my pajamas as to not arouse suspicion. When I finished changing, I hid my villain outfit and laid down in bed, already awaiting the next day.
