Is this worth it? I sometime think about it as well.

A figure in a black hoodie jacket and black cargo pants was walking through a post battle city, with flames flaring in multiple spaces, buildings ruined, and a bunch of blown-up vehicles, with electricity cackling from the broken electricity poles, and as the figure made his way, his head perked up as the sound of footsteps approaching him, the figure turned around as his right wrist which had a contraption bracelet which glowed red in the middle as a knife holster popped out.

Green toxic eyes were visible from the shadow that covered the figure's face as he got into a fighting stance, a woman with green straight hair which is styled into a ponytail whose eyes were blue, she was wearing a green body suit with yellow gauntlets and sneakers with rope ties, the yellow gauntlets had a circuit symbol in red on them, with a crimson cape held by yellow pins, a red belt with two pockets attached to her waist, the girl was in a pre-battle state as she prepared herself as soon as a kukri point came out of the knife holster which was made of some black metal.

"IZUKU! Stop this madness! We can help you!"

"Izumi, listen, I'm beyond the point of saving, the glitch inside me is already too strong...... you've seen what happened to auntie Nem, I can't go back."

"You can! Didn't you say that everyone can be saved!?"

"I'm sorry miss, but Izuku here, is quirkless." Said a doctor as it echoed through the check-up room, where a woman with long and straight verdant hair who was sitting next to two kids, a boy and a girl, one with green eyes, the other with blue eyes.

"You're just a useless DEKU!"

An ash blonde haired kid was smirking meanly at the sight of a crying boy with bushy green hair who was trying to be comforted by a girl whose hair was similar in colour with him but with blue eyes, with multiple other kids in the background laughing at the misery of the crying boy.

The same boy now was seen on a rooftop wearing a school uniform as he clutched a notebook to his chest, he was facing a buff blonde who was wearing a white T-shirt and dark green long pants who has what seemed to be a forced smile.

"It's not bad to dream, but you also have to consider what's realistic."

"You are no hero; you are a traitor!"

Multiple shadows of people in some sort of uniform was crowding a the same boy with green hair as he had a betrayed look on his face, more comments of doubt were thrown at the boy as he looked down and a tear dropped into the ground.

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

The girl named Izumi was spewing tears as she was trying to convince the hooded figure named Izuku, Izuku gritted his teeth as he threw the knife to the ground near Izumi who as she saw it, yellow lightning appeared from her legs as she jumped away, right as the knife glowed red and exploded with glitches and binary codes in red burst out from the explosion of plasma energy, Izuku ran as Izumi dodged the knife and as his foot made contact with the concrete pavement, red imprints of his shoes were left, glowing as if with life, as Izuku ran through the ruined city, sparks of codes appeared from his arm which Izuku clutched when the glitches in red began to overflow.

"Didn't you say that no one is ever broken!? Please---" She croaked just enough to let Izuku hear, "---Nedzu-san has developed a cure!"

A cure is delusional.
