Before I start, I would just like to mention that Izuku deals with his emotions and trauma very poorly. If you're experiencing something similar please reach out to those that can help you. This is a depiction of a bad way to deal with this, please take care of yourself. TW will always be put at the beginning if included in the chapter, don't worry. :)
TW: Attempted suicide, suicidal thoughts, abuse, and rape. Please take care!
~Flashback~
Izuku and Inko had everything torn away from them. His father was a drunk, and abusive.
Izuku was only 5 when the last thing he had was stripped away, his innocence. It was awful.
He vomited several times afterward.
He'll never forget the smell of burning plastic as his favorite all might figurines were burned. His posters stripped off the wall. His bed sold.
His father was rarely home. And when he was, life was total hell. Burns, cuts, bruises, over and over.
But one day, he disappeared. He took 7,000 dollars out of the account and left.
Izuku and Inko rejoiced that day. Happier than they'd been in a long time. Over the course of a year, they'd rebuilt their house into a beautiful home. More than just a place they lived, no more memories of the shit wad.
Izuku didn't have many All Might figures anymore. Just a single poster on the wall. A warm bed with a white and fluffy comforter, green throw blankets layered on top. Pillows at the headboard. A desk with a computer and pen holder filled with all sorts of pens. And a small trove of 2 hero figurines. All Might and his new favorite Eraser Head.
Izuku looked at the body of his mother. His eyes filled with pure horror. "M-mom?" He trembled. "You need to get back son, the Bakugo's are going to take you in." A police officer said.
"NO MY MOM I NEED MY MOM!" Izuku sobbed uncontrollably in Mitsuki's arms. Her eyes grew misty as she carried him away from the scene.
Izuku hadn't left his room for days. He refused to eat or go to school, do anything for that matter. He never answered the knocks to the locked door.
"Deku?" Katsuki said rather softly.
"Piss off." It was the first response they'd had in a week, so it was more of a relief than anything.
Izuku finally started opening the door to grab the meals before quickly shutting it again. He always neatly and silently placed the tray outside of the door, the amounts he ate gradually becoming larger.
Eventually he started to adapt to life at their house, and grew up there for 7 years before graduating his first year of high school early and moving into an apartment at 14.
He got a part time job at a coffee shop and set up his small apartment. He would have to start up high school in a year, but he'd settled into his new life.
He trained vigorously for hours every day. He had to build muscle if he wanted to become stronger. He worked on agility as well, which his short stature seemed to axel at for some reason. He spent the other parts of the day working on his costume. Simple, but well planned.
A dark green hoodie and somewhat tight grey sweatpants. His mask was custom built and made with a voice distortion device. He wrapped white athletics tape around his fingers, connecting the middle and ring finger to support his hand and avoid breaking his fingers. Finally he hooked on his custom knee pads that tighten into an ankle brace to support his legs.
He had begun vigilante work to help people without joining the system he'd grown to hate. He couldn't help but blame the hero who failed to save his mother.
~Long ass flashback over~
Izuku stitched up his wound, a long stab would ran from just under his rib cage towards his stomach. Sure it hurt like hell, but Izuku hadn't cried nor complained for 7 years. Pain tolerance comes with that time naturally. So he had an incredibly high one.
"Oh shit!" He snatched his phone off the bed.

Fanfiction(Please note this fic is very messy and not actually complete. Another version titled Axis (new) is the one you should read first.) What does it mean to be a hero? That's a question for the ages. It seems morality loses to evil. Heroes are villain...
