"Quirkless"
"Freak"
"Idiot"
The isults run through my mind as I fall from the three story building, pushed by the only classmate I trusted.
I use my last moments to wonder,
what did I do to deserve this?
What's so wrong with being quirkless?
After All about 20% of people are like me, quirkless and so I think back.

This all started when I was 6, or more accurately when I was 4 and didn't manifest a quirk. Me and my perents never got it checked because at that point they had all ready given up on me and my cycle of hell started. At first my perents where just cold but it quickly got worse, going from "forgetting" to feed me to shattering bear bottle around me and punching me.

And i continued like this for years untill  my whole school found out and it all got worse. I went from Akio the quiet kid, to the quirkless freak and for 2 more years that pain was all I knew.
I'm eight now and the last person i trusted, a boy named Giro who would give me his lunch when I didn't have any and would call me by my name "Akio" betrayed me.

We were on the roof with the teacher and some other students when a villain attacked and in the confusion hiro looked directly at me a pushed me off the roof.
Even the number one hero, All Might who already stopped the villain couldn't save me, as I was to close to the ground already.

Now here I am, Akio, a quirkless nobody, betrayed by family, friends, teacher and even the hero's who are meant to help us. Here I am about to die.

I probably shouldn't care so much, I had nothing left to live for anyway, but I here I am just about dead and all I wish for is in my next life I could help those who are like me, betrayed and powerless.

I now feel the ground touch the tip of my elbow but in the same second everything becomes dark as I fall into A shadowy puddle and all at once I fell like I've been reborn as I float in the shadowy space.

I could slowly feel each second crawl by as I hear whisper and screams and shadow like hands drag me around the space. At the same time I could see my dirty brown hair become pitch black, and I feel my blue eyes bleed, some how knowing that they are now black.

Then out of no where I feel like I'm falling again, and as the world blurs from shadows to light, my eyes focus on the surrounding forest about ten meters away from where I fell from the roof.

I've heard about this before in a health lesson, dormant quirks surfacing in times of extreme danger. Slowly I begin to cry
'I have a quirk.'
'I'm not useless after all.'

In the next few second I hear the murmurs from the windows, still in my hiding place in the bushes I listen,
"Did the freak just jump"
"I can't see his body though, are you sure"
"Does it matter, he's dead"
"Party at my house"

I knew my classmates hated me but this was really a wake up call. I just stay there cowering in the bushes for hours till I once again fall through my puddle like shadow, into a ocean of shadows and In the next second i find my self back in my small bedroom, the screaming still whispering in my ears like every person who the hero's have failed calls out to me. The whispers continue as I see shadowy hands, marking my skin like multiple constantly moving  tattoos.

In the background I hear my perents argue and fight as my mum hits dad with her strength quirk but they are interrupted by the door bell.
"I'm sorry to inform you, Mr and Mrs Takahashi but there has been an accident at your sons school. Earlier today a villain attacked, he was defeated by All Might but several students got injured and we have several eyewitness accounts of the villian pushing your child off the building. We are unable to find your childs body but we think that is due to the villian's acid quirk. As of now your son is presumed dead.
My condolences, but if you sign these papers your insurance will be used."

I was stunned, I knew I used my new quirk to disappear from there but I didn't think I would be called dead.
And so as I went to leave my room to tell them I was alive I heard "Again my condolences" at the same time the door closes then I hear my perents say

"Hahahah"
"He finally died"
"Look at this money, look at all the zeros"
"This is the most usefully that brat has ever been"

I feel blood in my mouth as i bite down, the shadow hands also get tighter as the screams get louder. I just grabbed my backpack and the next second im falling through my shadow again as i appear in a alley way. Then next thing I see makes me want to vomit as I see a heavily injured women with the big man holding a knife above her. The next few seconds blur as I stretch out my hand on instinct and shadow hands erupt from the ground pulling the man into my shadow. I call the ambulence for the girl and hear her mumble "thank you". In that very second I feel strong, i feel needed and appreciated and the screaming wispers in my head agree as they get less noisy. I know now what i have to do, i have to be there for all  of those people who the heros cant save, i must become a vigilante working outside of these broken laws.

And so I fall back into my shadow, this time fully in control. In the distence i see the murderer in a little shadowy cell just floating in the ocean of shadows.

And so i fall
I fall
Fall again
And again
I will be justices true shadow.


(A/N while Akio is my own character I will be including other characters from the anime/manga and some events.
Akio is the same age as izuku (they are currently both 8) and while I will be trying to stay true to the original story's I will deviate sometimes obviously)

Thank you all for reading this first chapter, i hope you all like the story
