We have abig mood swing in this chapter. The writing style is a little bit different this tume too. It'll go back to the other one soon but this style just fits a luttle bit more right now. This is the reason of the drastic turn by the way.

Last chapter: „Not before Shota laughed at his friends because they had to walk/go by bus/train"



Third Person POV/// I lost track of time, it's a few weeks after Izukus 4th birthday


Izuku didn't know what to think. The only think he really knew, was that he was nervous. And he was scared. Very scared. Usually, kids his age showed signs of a Quirk already. Like Katsuki who already had his Quirk and learned how to controle it now. But Izuku didn't have any signs yet. Not at all. No itching eyes like Shota had, no numb feeling hands like Inko when she developed her Quirk, no completely elmtionless phase like his father told Inko. He was scared, oh so scared. What if he wouldn't get a Quirk? What if he was Quirkless? He would be an dissappointment for his family. For Shota. He would have a Quirkless brother. And for Inko. She would have a quirkless son. He knew how quirkless people were treated. He was a child, yes. But he was not stupid. He saw the people kicking quirkless people out on the streets without anyone doing something against it. He saw the  news. A quirkless man had stolen from a shop. He got 5  years in prison. A man with a stealth quirk had done the same about two weeks after that. The same ingredient. The same store. He had to go back, apologize and pay for it. Nothing more. The world was unfair. The system didn't make sense. Humans hurt humans. Villains fought against Heroes. Good vs. evil. But how do you define it? Good...and evil? Izuku didn't know that anymore. When you would have asked him a year ago, he would have said villains are evil. Heroes are good. But now he wasn't so sure anymore. He had seen diffrrent aspects of the world. Of society. Some were better. Some where worse. He heard the mean comments people shouted after his brother, just because of his Quirk. And it wasn't fair. Shota didn't decide what Quirk he wanted to have. He didn't decide. No one did. So how can you decide wether someone is bad or good just because of their Quirk? Izuku was pretty sure that at least some villains had a reason to rob stores. Or get money on illegal ways. But what he didn't understand was, why they hurt other people. Weren't they hurt before? Didn't they know what it felt like to be hurt? Physically and mentally?

 Izuku was scared that he would be quirkless. That people would know. That others would hurt his family because of him. Because he was quirkless. The only hope he had, was that he wasn't actually quirkless and just a late bloomer. Izuku was scared. He didn't want to be hurt. He didn't want to hurt others because they hurt him. He didn't want to be bad. He didn't want to hurt anyone. He didn't want anyone to get hurt. But how can he make sure to not be evil, when he didn't know what was evil and what was good anymore? When he saw how much the heroes hurt the villains. How much the villains hurt the heroes. When he saw it like this, he didn't want to be a hero anymore. He didn't want to be part of this society. 

He didn't know what to think anymore. The rumors about him had started already. „have you heard the rumors? They say he is Quirkless. Must be a dissapointment to his family" „Ew. I heard he is quirkless." „don't touch him. They say he is quirkless. You could catch his desease and become Quirkless too." „his poor family. They have to have a quirkless child in their family." „Is he even human?"

And those comments only existed because of rumors. It wasn't confirmed yet. What would they do if it was actually to be confirmed? Izuku didn't want to know. He wanted the time to stop. He wanted that everything was like before. That everyone would smile politely at him and not make a disgusted face whenever they saw him. Of course, he wasn't really popular or the most liked child but he wasn't disliked or hated.
