It had been many years since students of U.A high had become pro heroes, many years since All Might gave this newer generation the mantle of protectors of the people and world with one hero in particular feeling as if they took the weight of that much more than others, Izuku Midoriya aka Deku, having graduated along with the other classes at age 19 and having been a hero for 8 years now. But the now 27 year old has been having problems, problems he doesn't open up about though on this day his life will have another chance.

The rain still wasn't letting up, the sniper aiming through the scope having to readjust every few seconds as he looked down from the rooftop down towards a high end club, his targets were a couple, husband and wife head of a security division the very one that had caused him trouble in the past as surprisedly for this sniper he didn't have a quirk, he was just an ordinary human, his focus went through the scope again and for a second for saw what looked like green lighting. He reached a hand down to activate his communicator "Uhhh C.P.. is there such a thing as green... lightning? Over" he voice sounding confused with a voice replying back
"This is C.P soon you'll be saying a cardboard box grew legs... don't be stupid there's no such thing as green lightning, over and out!" There was a click and static.

The sniper shook his head then peered through the scope again though he wished he hadn't, he saw not only green lightning, but what it was coming from. He fell back in shock trying to crawl away as the person stepped off the ledge towards him, the new person wearing a full body suit and mask, the bodysuit a dark green with silver steel knee and elbow pads, the boots having a red sole with the rest of the boot black, gloves that were leather black as well and slightly studded, the mask a darker silver steel face guard connected to the dark green leather top half of the mask almost representing an oni with it's markings. The sniper knew who it was "N-no why why? Dude no how could they pay you of all people.. shit ok alright I give ok?" The sniper pleaded clapping his hands together to try and persuade Izuku not to hurt him.

Izuku just stared down at the man even though he now stood 5'8, Izuku then sighed before delivering a punch to the sniper knocking him out in 1 hit and with the body tied up Izuku made his way down to the street and handed over the unconscious sniper to a police car waiting near the club "Thanks Deku I'm sure they'll appreciate it and will transfer the funds as soon as possible!" The police said as Izuku nodded "Don't mention it, have a good night officer" Izuku replied as he headed off. The past 2 years he wasn't his normal self from his U.A days, his mother passing away, he blamed himself, what happened to All Might, he blamed himself, it was to the point he cut off contact with everyone and even fell out of the eyes of the public occasionally doing a few jobs here and there and canceled his hero funds so he wasn't even getting bonus pay but he didn't really care.

The rain was slowing down, the visors on the inside of his mask finally not fogging up as much but he kept the headpiece on and with his walk to his apartment he got noticed by a few civilians, he nodded slightly but didn't stop for autographs or photos like he used too. He grew anxious with the amount of people spotting him but soon a small boy ran upto him just about out of breath "D-Deku... there's a... a hero.... in-in trouble I think... they... they need help" the boy panted with his parents soon behind him, the boy looked around 6 years of age. Izuku stared through his mask, his old self would immediately jump into action but now he just stared then a quick flash came over him, Izuku looked at the boy and was reminded of himself when he was young saying he was going to be a hero like All Might.

The boys mother spoke up "Well the hero is out numbered 4 to 1 but seems to be handling it fine" the mother knew of how Izuku was now days and Izuku did too but he had a moment of his old self "Where?" Izuku asked in a surprisedly polite tone, the young boy smiled widely while wiping tears and pointed from the direction he came from "Near the... tv station Deku" the boys voice getting braver as he was talking to a pro hero like Izuku who nodded then took off activating full cowl. Izuku still wasn't entirely sure why he was going to help since it had been 2 years and a few months since he went solo in a way, but still kids looked upto him cause they didn't know the truth, all they knew was that he was a pro hero. Izuku could see people running away as he was at the tv station in a few seconds, 2 rookie villains were knocked out, one more was now scared with hesitation from seeing Izuku while another ran out of the nearby building with slight burns.
