Izuku's POV

Crime has been on the rise since the death of the Musutafu vigilante. I had been hoping that I would have more time to train but since the death of the hero a gap has been left behind that is impacting everyone.

Villainy and criminal activity has been increasing in the poorer parts of town and innocent people are paying for my idiocy. I don't have years to waste on building up my strength and skills.

I need to crunch and do it fast before things get out of hand. I'm all good in the agility and parkour skill sets thanks to all of my tormentors however, I lack technique and fighting prowess and strength in general.

I'm glad I was able to convince Sensei to teach me. I'll need all the help and tools that I can get my hands on if I'm really gonna pull this off.

Being a vigilante will be infinitely harder than being a hero. Vigilantes dance on the line that separates villains and heroes and I will have both sides gunning for me.

I know the risks but I will still persevere. After all, it's the only way I can repent.

Time is a luxury that few have. Unfortunately, (yet it is totally expected that) I am not one of those select few.

I did an algorithm based on the changes in the crime rates in this city and by my calculations we have less than 3 months before the police become overwhelmed.

The heroes won't be able to do much because their unfamiliarity with the area. Many lives will be lost unless I do something within the next 3 months to minimize the damage.

However more pros may come to the poorer parts that I will be patrolling due to the fact that the hero commission has issued an order to bring in as many vigilantes as possible.

The plan was for me to become a black belt before hitting the streets but it looks like my plans have to be thrown out the window.

??? POV

Of course they had pounced on the opportunity that the death of the vigilante had provided to "uphold the law" and "prevent as many deaths as possible" because people don't have the "proper training."

This is bs. Utter bs.

They just didn't want to look bad. Vigilantes were doing a much better job at heroism than the pros were.

This gives me opportunities. I will make this world right again. I will purge it.

I cackled in the dream. Oh how much fun this would be!

It's only a matter of time at which it will all come to an end. I will savor the sweet taste of victory one way or another.

I don't care if my fate is endless silence. There is nothing I can do to escape it. My fate had been sealed since I was born and not by me.

I have no idea as to if this will even work but it's the only shot I have. I don't even know if he will be willing to do it. Not that he may even have a choice mind you.

For now I will observe and let him grow in his newfound power. My power.

The scenery of the dream shifted to a classroom.

I was on the floor and a tall towering blond stood in front of me. I sighed in my head, unable to control my body's actions.

It was always like this. I wondered to myself if he was experiencing these dreams as well as a burning sensation bloomed on my shoulder.
