Hero; by definition, a person who, in the opinion of others, has special achievements, abilities, or personal qualities and is regarded as a role model or ideal.
Why? Why did he care so much on being this "hero"?
"You're already a hero in my heart."
"It's not enough."
Nothing is enough, not when your ideals are beyond reach. No matter how hard he'd stretch his aching arms out into the perfect life, he could never reach that destination that called for him daily. He would never make his own subconscious proud, not as long as he didn't have his "quirk".
"Why isn't it enough?"
"Self-explanatory."
What was self-explanatory? The fact that Izuku wouldn't have a quirk, or the opinion that he'd never amount to anything. It was as if the path he wanted to follow was filled with cobwebs and dimly lit rooms. Each room had a different outcome, and if he'd chosen wrong, he'd fall into an abyss of nothingness.
Her abyss.
The empty void that plagued her every notion was always pulling at her arms and legs, whispering sweet nothings into her ear. The only caretaker she'd ever had was the voices, high pitched and deep. And no matter how hard she'd beg for them to stop, the disgusting images flew into her eyes like flashing colors. Like she'd suffered from epilepsy. Such a high feeling, almost like she'd been put onto a pedestal. But eyes constantly watched her every move, and swords we're constantly put to the neck.
The head of the Hydra would just continue to regenerate.
How could he be a hero, if he couldn't save the one he'd loved the most?
Her beaten, battered body lay dead on the floor, not even a faint breath escaping her pale, purple lips. Oh, how he yearned to see her chest move upwards, signaling she was alive. He yearned that she'd be able to see daylight one more time. Hear the 3 words he'd treasured the most.
"I hate you."
But his broken sobs filled the small, dim alleyway. And his swollen heart was left with the intense pang that rattled his everything.
"I'm sorry."
•
Without a quirk, Izuku thought he'd never amount to anything.
And now matter how hard she'd tried, her words never threaded themselves through his heart.
And when the final moments came to pass, he was washed away with a sense of regret.
