Why?

"Karma." 

The redhead turned to Asano, a strawberry milk carton in his hand and a questioning gaze on his face. The two were walking down an empty hallway in the Asano mansion which they - along with a few others - are now calling home.

"Why did you come to this world?" Asano asked, as they entered the room.

"I guess it's because I was born here." The other answered, throwing his empty carton in a random trash can before throwing himself onto the bed. Asano looked down as the redhead sat up and looked at the chairman's son. 

"That's not true."

The redhead smiled. "My my Asano-kun. I didn't know you'd be bold enough to use your ability on me. But I suppose I always have been a good liar. That's what happens when you've lied your entire life. But you knew that, right?"

Asano gritted his teeth. "Just answer my question."

Karma laughed. "So demanding~ But fine. I'll tell you." He said as he stopped laughing, his eyes glowing and a smile on his face as he looked up at Asano. "Endeavor has to go." His voice was serious. "You know how you want to beat your father?" Asano nodded. "I want to do that with mine. And imagine the horror on everyone's faces as they realize who the number one pro hero truly is! He'll go to jail, his reputation ruined and then society will lose their trust in heroes." Karma concluded. 

"Wouldn't society fall into chaos? One Symbol of Peace had to step down and another revealed as abusive?"

"Ah ah ah Shuu. He's abusive. He doesn't deserve it. And heroes don't deserve the title if they're like that. Most of them are in it for fame and money anyway. The only thing that makes them different from others is that they have better quirks. All we have to do is get rid of All For One and reveal Endeavor. The other villains are there because of heroes. Plus, the hero commission is terrible. Look at what happened to Lady Nagant."

"What happened to her?" Asano asked, already used to Karma's way of switching through stuff in a flash."

"She became that way because of the Hero Commission. The heroes who did something the Commission didn't like were sentenced to death by the Commission themselves. And yet, heroes are being taught not to kill. Lady Nagant was one of the assassins. She ended up getting fed up and now she's in Tartarus because of that."

"Ah. So, now you're trying to fix society by bringing down the heroes and villains?"

Karma nodded, a smile on his face. "You're finally getting it."

"But why now?"

Karma's eyes glinted with something dangerous, and not for the first time, Asano wondered whether or not Karma was a mass murderer or a psychopath. He watched as the other stood up and paced around. 

"Because A-sa-no," Asano glared at Karma as he stretched out the syllables, "I'm stronger. And I have no remorse. I also know what to do and I'm the right age for U.A! Who would suspect a kid from U.A with no quirk to bring down the heroes and villains?"

"...Not many people."

"Exactly! All I have to do, is get my former classmates to join me and we'll be unstoppable! So what about it Shuu? Feel like joining our rebellion?" Karma asked, a hand outstretched to the other. Asano hesitated before grabbing it. Karma smiled. 

"Welcome to the rebellion Shuu."

---------------

Getting the former E Class to join the rebellion was so much easier than getting Asano to join him. For one, they trusted Karma and they also understood his logic. It also helped that they weren't born here and thought that heroes and villains were the norm. Honestly, the only reason Asano agreed to join him was because he too didn't only see the world in black and white, heroes and villains. Asano also saw grey and he also knew what it was like wanting to overthrow a father. Now, all he had to do was get the villains on board with the plan. After they kill All For One of course. And killing that guy wouldn't be too hard. He was incapacitated and they knew exactly where he was. All Karma had to do was distract the villains. And that was pretty easy. 

"Karma-kun. Why are you targeting Endeavor? And what do you mean by blackmail?" Nagisa asked. Karma turned to him. 

"Enji Todoroki has been abusing his family ever since the first child was born 20 something years ago. And unlike Shuu and apparently the number one pro hero, I have morals. And I also would like to see this society crumble. So it's a win-win situation for me if everything works out." Karma shrugged. 

"I thought you'd like to be a villain." Nagisa said, turning to the planning sheets. Karma snorted. 

"You would have thought. I do seem like that type, don't I?"

"You literally said you'd love to see society crumble not even a minute ago." Nagisa pointed out. 

"Well Nagisa-chan, I like living in luxury. And villains want to destroy everything. Including fancy mansions. And I don't want to die either so the only option is to take both down. Cause if the villains continue being villainy, I'll have to run to a different dimension again! Which means learning new stuff and there's also a possibility of me not being able to live in a mansion!"

Nagisa deadpanned. 

"You are very spoiled Karma-kun." He chided. Karma pouted. 

"No I'm not Nagisa!"

"You are." Nagisa decided. "You're also a child."

"Well you're hoping to be a teacher so I can be your pretend child!"

Nagisa groaned. 

"Unfortunately you are still Karma meaning that I will most likely be assaulted by pranks. And you are, unfortunately, a genius."

"What do you mean unfortunately! And Nagisa-chan, in case you've forgotten, I still am a child. Might as well enjoy this time for the few short years left. Then I'll have to grow up, pay taxes and become boring. Which means no more pranks." Karma said, sighing. 

"..."

"What? It's my worst fear!"

"Karma-kun... you really are a little kid at heart."

"Hey!"

~~~~~~~~~~

So, I have gotten questions on why Karma is named Akuma as that's an illegal name and simply put, I actually had no clue that it was illegal. You can name a child that in other countries and it's acceptable to bring the child to live in Japan with that name, but you can't name them Akuma on Japan premises. So I'm sorry if anyone feels offended by that. 

Also, I apologize for not updating regularly. School is over, but I am in summer school and we're having guests staying over soon along with random camping trips now and then so it's been kinda hectic and I've been unable to do much writing.
