Villains Aren't Heroes

Glitching Outta Here

"Tell me, did you develop your hideousy throughout the years or were you just born with an ugly face?" Glitch asked as he back flipped over the cowboy hero and landed on a brick wall. The hero turned around to glare at Glitch who just said "Oh please stop looking at me, I'm gonna throw up!"

Cowboy threw his lasso at Glitch and it wrapped around him tightly.

Glitch laughed and winked which made him glitch out of the lasso easily. He then grabbed the lasso and sent a glitching through it that made the cowboy glitch into a wall.

Glitch laughed and looked at the hero who was struggling to get out. "Now I'd love to stay but I've got business elsewhere. Enjoy licking the granite during your cries of help." His entire body glitched to the side and back again before he disappeared.

When he reappeared it wasn't in an American back alley anymore, it was in Japan on the top of a building.

He reached up and pulled his mask off to let his redish pink hair fly free in the wind.

Glitch inhaled and exhaled then his arm that was holding onto the roof glitched and he started to fall.

"Crap!" He exclaimed spewing curses as he tried to stop himself from sliding off of the roof completely.

He fell off the roof and came crashing down to the ground.

He tried to teleport to safety but he could only glitch a foot to the side before teleporting back.

'I over did it! I over did it!' Glitch thought in an angry panic.

The ground was getting scary close now.

He'd just have to try to roll or something. Glitch held his limbs out as far as he could get them to slow himself down.

Right as he was about to hit the ground a blob of red and tan flew under him and suddenly he wasn't falling anymore but now flying up.

Glitch looked around then looked at what he was holding onto.

"Don't worry kid I gotcha" A man's voice said.

He was being held under the arms by a man with big red feather wings.

"I'm Hawks, so you don't have to worry" The man said.

Glitch almost laughed. Just his luck to run into the second most popular hero.

"So what's up kid? Life treating you bad? Come on talk to me you don't have to end it all over spilled milk" Hawks says.

That's when Glitch realized that Hawks thought he was suicidal. He then realized that he could milk this for all it's worth.

Glitch summoned some tears and sobbed "Spilled milk? Everyone I get close to ends up dying!" It wasn't a lie, people do die around him.

Hawks looked down at him and frown "I'm sure that's not true"

"My grandfather died over a heart attack when I surprised him with cake on his birthday, my girlfriend got ran over my a tow truck, and I just got a phone call that my brother died in brain surgery!"

A little over the top but it seemed to work as Hawks went quiet.

Suddenly Glitch teleported to the side and started to fall again. Why was it that he just teleported when he didn't even want to after using his quirk too much? Shouldn't he just not be able to use his quirk instead?

Hawks was surprised but caught Glitch again.

"Whoa! No need to go try to kill yourself again! Listen, what happened to you is bad, but people die and even if it's hard you gotta live on so you can fulfill their legacy" Hawks said.

That sounded like the cheesiest help line in existence but he had to work with it.

"Fullfill their legacy?" Glitch asked, stopping his fake crying.

Hawks nodded and smiled at hearing him stop crying "Yeah, go do the things your family can't"

"I think I will" Glitch said holding back his eye roll and instead sniffed.

Suddenly he felt stomach disagree with him. He wasn't good in air. He hated flying.

"So where can I drop you off?" Hawks asks smiling.

Dropping all acting, Glitch said "247 Hazel RD"

"That's awfully specific" Hawks said suspicious.

Glitch racked his brain but then said "That's where my girlfriend and I had our first walk with her dog that got a leg disease and had to get it cut off rendering it helpless for the rest of its life"

"Is there anything in your life that isn't depressing?" Hawks muttered.

A minute of flying and Glitch could see the extremely familiar Street he walked every night.

"Here?" Hawks asked as he set Glitch down.

Once his feet tou he'd the ground Glitch stepped forward with his back to Hawks.

"Yes this is it" Glitch said sorrowfully. "So many memories. My girlfriend and I used to-" He stopped to make it sound like he was crying or holding back a sob.

Hawks nodded and put a hand on Glitch's shoulder comfortingly as he looked at the street.

"I understand, but you gotta let go and move on." Hawks encouraged "Maybe find a new girlfriend"

Glitch looked at Hawk's hand on his shoulder in disgust. It was the same hand that saved millions of other heroes and killed millions of other villains. He was getting hives just thinking about the hand on his shoulder.

"Yes, you're probably right" Glitch said cheerily, quickly hugging the hero and turning. "I'll go visit her grave one more time before moving on." he waved over his shoulder and said "Thanks Hawks, you're the best!"

Glitch left Hawks extremely confused wondering if he just saved a crazy bipolar teen.

Glitch turned a corner and waited until he saw Hawks flying away again.

He rolled his eyes and groaned. Heroes could be so annoying! He started to walk down the street as he thought.

Why do heroes always have to save people? Why couldn't they just let the person die if they wanted to? Then they try to act like the person is going through so they don't have to save them again. How irritating!

And why on earth do people want to be heroes? It's so much more fun to be a villain! You get to do whatever you want! Break rules, steal money, hurt the ones who've wronged you, there were so many perks, yet people still choose heroes. And who's to say who's the villain and who's the hero? Is that just societies choice or is it just a matter of opinion?

It wasn't like there were any good villains or heroes now anyway. As soon as All Might retired there wasn't anything to look forward to anymore.

All the villains were just a bunch of punks who decided they looked good in black.

Real villains were like the League of Villains, All For One, himself, and- oh yeah, his friends. Satsujin, Zanko, and Akui. They were straight up cold blooded. He wondered what they were doing now. Can Satsujin summon any cool weapons now? Did Akui ever get revenge on that girl who once cut her hair randomly? And was Zanko still single and playing with dominoes like the dork he was?

He didn't know the answer to these questions but he guessed he would soon find out, after all..... he was here.
