In today's society, religion has somewhat decreased in the world. Granted now that there are people with powers that would be called gods in past times, times have changed.

However, some people are still devoted believers in their respectable religion.

My name is Ibara Shiozaki. I'm a Christian. At a young age, I was taught the ways of Christianity by my family. To me it made sense. Whenever I felt unsure or was in a bad situation, God kept me on the right path. Catholicism has been with me for as long as she can remember. It was the only thing she could trust.

When I first attended school I wasn't afraid to let people know about my faith. That of course didn't stop the other kids from making fun of me. Calling me names, making fun of me, or even mocking my

"What a freak." "Weirdo" "Jesus freak"

Words like these are what I heard throughout elementary and middle school. I ignored them the best I could, after all, wrath is a deadly sin.

I spent most of my childhood friendless, so I was always alone. Though being alone gave me a lot of time to think about my future. What did I want to do? Well, in this society there is only one thing any kid wishes to be when they grow up.

A hero. To help those less fortunate. I didn't wish for vanity or riches, I just wanted to help. I wanted to do good in this world. I want to protect everyone I can without using violence. To help without harming.

And now I'm standing in front of U.A. Ready to begin my path to righteousness. I do hope that at least my new classmates are at least a bit more accepting of my belief.

Not that it would affect my faith or studies. As long as I have God on my side I can walk down any path alone. Or at least that's what I thought...




until I meet the Devil.

Today was the day, a new chapter in my life. My Name is Izuku Midoriya. And I'm going to be a hero. I've always wanted to be a hero ever since I was a kid and saw All Might on tv.

But ever since the incident when my quirk manifested, everyone thought I was the Devil. 'It wasn't my fault." I told them but no one listened to me. No one wanted anything thing to do with me. I was left alone.

I had no one, no family, no friends. Everyone who knew about me was afraid and everyone would call me the same name.


"Devil"


I've been called the Devil since I was five and nothing has changed since. But just when everything seemed to be getting worse for me I meet a lady named, Sister Iris.

Sister Iris worked at a small orphanage across town. She took me in when I had nowhere to go. She didn't mind my past and took me in with arms wide open.

The orphanage was small and somewhat run-down, but it was my home. When I got there, there were already a bunch of kids there. There was also a few other nuns there, but they were strict and not fun to be around.

So I pretty much spent a lot of time close to Sister Iris. She was kind and gave us everything we needed; clothes, food, a place to sleep. Anything. I owe Sister Iris a lot, and I will help her when I become a hero.

I have a lot of reasons why I want to be a hero. To help anyone in trouble, to help Sister Iris, and lastly for my mother. I'll prove to everyone who doubted me, that I can be a hero even if I have to do it alone. Or at least that was what I thought until...




I meet an Angel.
