Y/N POV 

If I had learned anything from my 17 years of life is that what can go wrong will go wrong. It all started from birth. My parents say that the day that I was born was the day that I ruined their lives. If anything went wrong in my parents' lives I was automatically the cause of the problem. My school was no better. I had zero friends as my quietness always made me strange to others. Who would have thought that a kid with an awful home life wouldn’t be a talker. This made me an easy target for bullying. These immature kids sure love to take their problems out on me. The only comfort I had in this miserable world was reading manga; My favorite being my hero academia. I found Deku’s character encouraging as he was bullied as well but never let it stop him from achieving his dreams. 

I was spending my Fridays as I usually did. At my local bookstore buying manga. Truthfully, most times I just read manga for free but today I saved up to buy a new copy of my hero academia. The lady at the regastire knew me well and was surprised to see me actually buying something for once. She excitedly took my money before handing me my new manga. I left the bookstore with manga in hand.  

There was still enough light in the late evening sky so I could read as I walked. I was too impatient to wait till I got home to read. It had always been a bad habit of mine to read and walk. Doing so has caused me a lot of injuries. Just last week I ran into a light pole while reading.

If I would have looked up from the manga then I would have seen that I had walked into the middle of the street. I wasn’t the only one not paying attention. A man driving a truck was looking down at his phone at the exact time I had walked into the street. The truck slammed into me, sending me flying across the cement. Even though I was slammed across the street, the manga never left my hand. The driver never even stopped to check on me. 

I had always wondered what dying would feel like but I could never expect this. There was no pain even though I had just been tossed like a rag doll by the truck. Everything just felt cold and kept getting colder and colder until I felt nothing. Then I was standing above my body.

"Wow girl you look rough," I said to myself

My legs and arms were twisted in the wrong direction. There was so much blood it surrounded my body like a lake. Even with everything that happened I had been able to hold onto the manga and with the funny way my arm was bent it was even able to stay out of the blood. I reached down trying to take the manga from my cold dead hands but my ghost hands just kept going through the manga. 

"Yeah that won't work you're kind of a spirit now and unfortunately you lost the ability to interact with the physical world" 

A deep voice sounded from behind me. I flinched, backing away from my dead body turning to a black mist a few feet away from me. I had heard the stories of a black figure collecting souls after a person died. 

"Are you the grim reaper?" I asked

"You know out of all the names you humans have given me that one is my favorite" the mist answers

"Well let’s get going” 

"Wait what" the mist yelled if it had an expression I’m sure it would be shocked "you're not going to cry, beg for a second chance, or ask why"

I knew it might have seemed strange to others as I had no will to live but couldn’t end my life either “I’ve never enjoyed this life I’ve lived but I never wanted to end it myself. I’m just ready to go to the other side even if I don’t know what is in store for me”

The mist let out a humm before speaking "You're a very interesting human. It's probably been 100 years since I met someone like you so I'll do you a favor. I'll answer one question about anything you want" 

The mist moved closer now it was standing right in front of me. I could not see any human from only blackness. I looked back down at my deformed body and saw the manga still in my hand. At that moment I knew my question.

"How does my hero academia end?" I asked, looking into the black mist.

"Hahahahaha" the mist laughed for a long time as if he hadn’t in a long time "that is what you ask an all-knowing being. Kid, you are just too much."

"It’s the one thing that makes me happy and I want to know how it ends" I stated 

"What if I told you that the world actually existed in another dimension? That all those people you read about are actually real?"

For the first time in a long time, I smiled "I would be very happy to know that there is a world with such great people in it"

The mist was intrigued by my answer "Listen kid I really like you so I'm going to do something I haven't done in centuries I'm going to give you a second chance but not in this world. I'm going to send you to the world you’ve read about so you can have a second chance there"

"Thank you" I shouted jumping up and down in excitement "I would hug you but I think I would just fall through you."

“Hang on kid, let me give you a backstory so you don’t just show up into the world as a nobody” the mist said calming me down as I wanted to know my awesome back story "So I'm going to place you in the world as an orphan so you'll have no family. You'll be staying with a foster family. I'll make it so the Midoriyas are your foster family since I know Deku is your favorite character. I suggest you act like you have amnesia when you wake up. When you're taken to have a CAT scan they will see that there was damage to the part of the brain that controls memory. You won't have any friends or ex-boyfriend/girlfriend and it will seem like you didn't exist till this moment. It would seem to everyone around you that you were just going through the motions never talking or interacting. I suggest you not waste this opportunity." once he was done I realize I wasn’t getting an awesome back story just another tragic one but I wouldn’t waste this life

"May ask for one thing," I asked 

"Sure I'm already giving you life, go ahead ask for more". The mist said sarcastically 

"May I please have a quirk so I'm able to save people" I begged

"You want to be a hero" the mist asked confused

"Yes I never did much with my old life and I want to make the most out of this one."

"Sure kid you can be a hero but don’t be surprised when I borrow the idea for your powers from another character. I’m not very creative-” the mist paused for a moment and I could have sworn he was concerned about something “-rember Y/n this new world will have dangers of its own and everyone might not be how they were in your story. Be careful.”

"I'll try my best to make it the best life I can"

"Good luck" 

The mist grabbed me pulling me into a tight hug. Everything felt warm before a blinding light developed me. Everything was bright before going dark and I drifted off into darkness.
