In this vast universe, there is a particular planet which ignites the flames of interests inside everyone. In such a planet called Earth, humans were born. Over the uncountable years, this species kept evolving, and are now born with superpowers called quirks. It is the year 2250, and life has settled so much that peace has overtaken this world which was once full of chaos and war. 

It was a bright summer morning. The clock hit 12:00 pm. A new baby was born, and just like all the others this one possessed a quirk. However, this time it was quite different. This quirk was like no other, and the doctor who was in charge of this baby was surprised that something like this was possible. After thinking for quite some time, the mother asks about her only child with teary eyes, "Sir, is our baby normal? Does he possess a quirk?". The doctor looks at her with eyes filled with astonishment. He replies, "Madam, congratulations, your baby is a boy. I would also like to note that he is completely normal and does possess a quirk. However...." The parents' eyes become worried and they wait for the doctor to finish. The doc continues, "However, his quirk is something which is unseen to this world. It rivals even the No.1 Hero All Might in terms of abilities. Now, it all depends upon your baby if he could hone it to become one with this unbelievable power, and if he does, the world will see the rise of the strongest hero to ever exist". The father exclaims with joy, "W-What....Our baby, is this strong?". The father continues "B-but..our quirks, they are even below average...How is this possible?" the father is holding his wife's hands and has no more words to express the joy he is feeling right now. The doctor congratulates them once more, before they leave the hospital room with tears of joy. 

They soon reach home and plan on what name they should keep for their son. The mother finally decides his name, and the father eventually agrees with it. Finally, the identity for the unseen hero was born. This hero is no other person than YOU. You were finally born in this world to change history. You were born to make your parents proud. You...will be the one who even the No.1 Hero All Might will admire.

However, in a world where atleast 80% people are born with quirks, there was an unfortunate family who had to go through the pain of giving birth to a quirkless boy. Nevertheless, this was never enough to prevent his parents from loving their son unconditionally. You were asleep with your mom, and your pa wanted to go see the new baby which was born to his neighbour. "Hey honey, I wanted to go see the baby which was born to Inko today, is it okay for you?" pa asks. Mom nods her head slightly, as she was tired after experiencing so many mixed feelings today, starting from joy, to excitement, but ending up in the thoughts of the possible threats which could come at their way someday. Pa gives a soft kiss to you, and leaves the house. Now, we arrive at Inko's house, but are invited with an emotional scene. Inko is in tears, as she says, "Izuku, it's okay...quirks are not everything. We can still live a happy life without  them right....right?". Pa was in shock. He immediately rushed towards inko and inquired about whatever was happening. Inko explains the situation. Pa became serious and felt horrible. He didn't know what to do next so that he could somehow console Inko Midoriya. He sits next to the speechless and cold looking man. Pa asked Hisashi, "It is going to be okay, kacchan." Hisashi was Pa's close childhood friend, and he used to call him by kacchan. Pa continues, "Your child...sorry...what is his name though kacchan?". Kacchan replies, "It's izuku. Tenshi, I cannot explain how worried I am feeling for izuku right now. I cannot imagine how I will ever explain to him that he was born...quirkless", kacchan breaks down and Tenshi tries to comfort him. Izuku suddenly wakes up after hearing his parents cry, and Inko rushes to check on him. Tenshi and Kacchan look at Izuku at once, and then towards each other. They smile, while tears are rolling down their cheeks, uncontrollably. They hug each other, and muffled cries are heard from Kacchan. Izuku, unlike most babies, is not crying however. He is looking at his father and the person next to him with a confused expression. Inko is sitting beside izuku, while slowly kissing him. Soon it hits 11:30 pm on the clock. After a long and heartbreaking scenario, tenshi opens the door and is about to leave before looking back at his childhood friend and his wife once again. He slowly says, "It's really going to be okay. Remember my words kacchan, you will see izuku grow up to be one of the most renowned persons. I promise." Tenshi leaves the room, and a stillness grows inside the room. Izuku was asleep again, because inko was slowly patting him to put him to sleep. Tenshi arrives at your home while you are asleep. Your mother is eager to hear what tenshi has to say, but soon becomes worried after she sees his face. Pa sits on the couch, and is about to drink some water, when she interrupts him with a question, "Tenshi, is everything alright? Weren't you at inko's house? What happened? Tell me honey, please." Urashika is getting impatient seeing the expression of her husband. Tenshi soon replies, "My love, I wish I had some good news for you, but life is not so good for everyone is it? My best friend, suffered the worst fate. I am feeling so horrible...so useless...if only I could do something for him. Kacchan was born with a son...", urashika suddenly interrupts saying, "That's good news! What is the problem here honey?". Tenshi continues without another word, " His son....was born...quirkl-, quirkless". He broke into tears again, while urashika hugged her husband and broke into tears too. However, they made sure not to make any noise because if they did, you would surely wake up.
