-1- intro

people always wonder "how did you become a villain?" i don't know when it started. five, six maybe, who cares?

anyways, my name's haru takahashi, and i'm a 16 year old villain. yeah, yeah i know it sounds bad but it's not like i had a choice, i never wanted to become a monster.
i was born in america, the only son to the american pro hero: siren. i never knew my father but she used to tell me all kinds of stories about him. back when she was nicer she would spend hours talking about the "good ol days" when the the sun danced on her skin and everyone always smiled. from what i know he's japanese and was only staying in america temporarily, so by the time my mom went to tell him she was pregnant he was already long gone.
when i was around 5 she moved to japan with me, hoping to see him but i guess her hopes were crushed because something changed. she was no longer the loving mother who told me stories about her crazy adventures, no she became someone else, someone who i hardly knew. she went from the pro hero siren, to a villain who terrorized the streets of japan named symphony.

she is the reason i'm like this, she is the reason i did the things i've done. when my quirk developed she made sure i was constantly training, never letting me take breaks, and when i couldn't train anymore she would scream at me until my ears started to bleed, which actually happened sometimes because her quirk allows her to manipulate sound waves.

i was a kid, and my childhood was taken from me, every day was hell and it seemed like i could never escape it. i was only 6, and my life seemed so bleak, so hopeless and it didn't seem like it would get better. my mom had been paranoid about the police catching her for a while, so we moved constantly. she used to tell me that if they caught her they would take me away and throw me in some facility where they would experiment on me because of my quirk.

they came when i was 8. it was in the middle of the night and i was sitting on the floor of my room coloring in the dark when i heard a loud bang. my mom stormed into my room and told me to hide under the bed and stay quiet or else she would kill me then and there. i could hear loud banging and screaming coming from outside but then it stopped and my curious 8 year old self decided to peek outside and see what was happening. that was when the pro heroes realized that symphony had a son.

i remember the grim looks on their faces as they stared at me in shock and then a man with long black hair picked me up and took me to a police car. there was a split second where i thought i was free, i thought that maybe i would get adopted by a nice family with a dog and go to school like any normal kid and have lots of friends, but then the car was hit off the road and my dreams of freedom were suddenly crushed by a man in a suit named all for one, he's a real piece of shit.

apparently right before my mom was captured she sent out a signal to him to come get me for some reason, i honestly have no idea how or why she knew him but i've been stuck with him and stupid shigaraki for the last 8 years. there are times that i wish that my mom was never taken because life with her was shitty, but life with them is unbearable.

they forced me to go on missions and take down people they deemed threats or break into government buildings to gather information on pro heroes. i had stayed under the radar for a long time until one day someone leaked security footage of me exiting the building after assassinating one of my targets. the video went viral because he was a pretty shitty guy, if there was a shady politician bingo card, he would've gotten a blackout. after a while i guess i got "popular" enough to have the public give me a name, phantom, and here i am now, sitting alone in my room narrating my life in my head like a crazy person.

y'all this is so bad i am so sorry ahahskdjfjgmgmgmgmgmgn
