My Hero Academia Imagines

Reputation (Villain Aizawa Shota)

"Did you hear about the student who got kicked out?"

"No, who got kicked out?"

"I don't know his name... but apparently some first year got kicked out last week because he became really mentally unstable and put another first year into the hospital."

"Are you serious? What happened to this psycho?"

"That's the thing... no one knows. He just up and disappeared after his expulsion... pretty freaky right?"

"Yeah... I just hope I'll never run into that guy."

The sound of someone slamming their textbook shut with an echoing thud alerted the two gossiping girls that they were easily heard, the person who caused the noise obviously not happy about their words.

You turned, your eyes projecting knives into their hearts, the cold glare making them both gasp slightly. You rolled your eyes, pacing to towards the self to return the book and then head home for the afternoon.

It had been a week since Aizawa Shota had put one of your classmates into the hospital. The rumors starting up right away of course from the incident, most of them covering the true with an addictive coating of addictive lies.

Your eyes batted along the nearly abandoned streets, the only living figures being yourself and a few strange cats wondering about lazily, their tails swaying as you passes them by.

You sighed, feeling the same uneasy feeling coming over yourself again, the events from that training simulation playing in your mind. You had been on Aizawa's team when he suddenly lost it, your classmate having been lucky to survive.

"I came looking for stray cats, but looks like I found something more interesting."

You paused in your pace, glancing behind you to see the former student, his attire different than last week. His hair was messy, no longer clean and slicked back. His clothing was all black aside from the straps of beige around his neck. His eyes looked disinterested, despite him being the one who started this conversation.

"I thought you had skipped town."

"Is there a reason I should?"

"Because UA has notified the police of what you did. They've been told to take you into custody when they find you."

He sighed, bending down to rub the ears of a cat who came forward. The cat meowed happily, liking the man's attention and affection. Aizawa smiled, picking the cat up in his arms and then responding to you.

"I assume that makes me a villain then. Does that mean a hero like you is going to try to take me in?" He spoke, his voice dull though he sounded genuinely curious of what you would do.

"Is this some kind of game to you?" You spat back, hands balling up and eyes staring at him. "You're some kind of scary story that the other students are spreading around for God's sake!"

Aizawa placed the cat down, walking closer to you. He smiled that slightly disturbing smile he had shown you many times before, but this time you finally knew just how sinister it could be and how terrified you should be of it.

"Any good villain has a reputation (Name)."

"You're not a villain, but you're allowing people to make you into one."

"No." He spoke, his eyes casting away from you. He was gone in the next second, but his parting words left you shaking, the walk home seemingly more haunting now.

"Everyone thought I was meant to be a villain from the beginning. Only now, I've come to embrace it."
