UA thought they knew Izuku Midoriya. They were wrong. Before the shy smiles, before the notebooks and apologies, there was a different Izuku--sharp-tongued, observant, and unapologetically dangerous when cornered. Japan taught him to soften. UA taught him to shrink. And when betrayal came--swift, public, and unforgivable--it didn't break him. It reminded him of who he used to be. Izuku returned to America. To the man who had raised him on hard truths instead of hero worship, who taught him that power without a backbone gets you used, and that survival sometimes means letting people burn bridges behind you. Moving back wasn't an escape--it was a reset. America didn't make Izuku ruthless. It gave him permission to stop pretending that he wasn't. Now he's back in Japan, and the boy who was cast aside is gone. In his place stands someone calmer. Colder. Smarter. Someone who remembers every look of doubt, every accusation, every friend who stayed silent. UA expects apologies. They expect forgiveness. They expect the old Izuku. What they get in return is the version of himself he buried to survive them--and he's done filtering for anyone. My Hero Academia and the characters aren't mine. All credit goes to Kohei Horikoshi. I only own the plot and OCs.

What happens when his faith in his heroes finally breaks? What happens when he finally had enough? What happens when he doesn't believe in UA anymore? What happens when he is done giving UA chances to fix the things right in front of them? What if he no longer looks up to All Might? What if his best friend Shouto Todoroki offered his hand to start over somewhere else? This is how Izuku Midoriya finally breaks after the repeated failures of the UA high school and its teachers. They allowed repeated assaults and attempted murder to happen without punishment and never did anything to fix it. Instead, they forced Izuku to partner up with the person that kept hurting him for the final exam where Katsuki Bakugo just hurt him once again. As such, Shouto Todoroki and Izuku Midoriya decided to change their lives. Why stay where the teachers don't care? Why not leave to another hero school? - Note - Endeavor is better in this. After the sports festival, he drastically changed due to the words that Izuku said and saw what he did for his son. He ended up visiting his wife in the mental hospital to talk to her and he came to so many realizations. He apologized to her and promised to do better and have her released from the hospital to return home if she wished or to move into a new home at her desire. This shocked the family and they were willing to hear him out and see his change. Touya Todoroki aka Dabi is an undercover hero for the hero commission in this AU. The family is aware of him being an underground hero. Dabi did it as a form of protest against his father since he wanted him to go into the spotlight but refused and went underground heroics. The family doesn't know his undercover look or name but he does return home often when he can. (He does not have the scars permanently. They are due to a quirk that changes his looks.)

NOTE: This is the first story of my first-ever: Demon Deku trilogy, each story is different from the other, meaning Izuku's powers are different. EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD. Izuku Midoriya lived a life of lies, betrayal, and deceit. As a child, he was diagnosed quirkless and got mistreated very quickly by his friends and family. Every day at school, he gets bullied by the other students and the teachers couldn't care less about him, since he was quirkless. Izuku gets beaten up every day by his friends and family, all because of one pathetic reason: quirkless. Izuku had enough of it, so, he took matters into his own hands.

For years and years Izuku fought to kill one person, one person who he had always thought deserved death more than any other villain that he had went against. All for One, the all powerful villain of the world, but to Izuku, he was known as the murderer of his friends.. no that's not good enough of a word to name them, they were his family. Why else would he go through the most unconventional and grueling of training to recreate their quirks and skills so they would stay with him, at least in someway. Shigaraki was only a pawn that was used in this game of life and death, and when All for one was no more, he was the only piece left in play that needed to be taken out. Izuku had once tried persuasion but it was painfully obvious that that option had long since passed. He could've only tired to take in Shigaraki alive, but his emotions drove him to an end that not even he wanted. But now, Shigaraki was dead and everything was gone. At least what made Japan his home was gone. It was then end and it was time for the final act, the death of the main character in Izuku's case. Soon after committing the deed, Izuku woke up yet again, but he was some where else, somewhere too familiar to be a simple dream or even the work of a quirk. #When-Therapy-Isn't-An-Option #1-DekuxHarem- 3/18/23 (3/4/2024)

Nico had two goals when he moved to Gotham #1- help new demigods get to Camp #2- don't meet the Waynes He didn't have anything against the family, how could he when he was only told about them the day before he moved, but he had heard about the serial adoption of black haired kids. He already had a strained relationship with his father, he didn't need a second one. -------- As Nico sat in the park with the random boys he befriended, he finally felt normal. They didn't know who his father was; hell, they thought his father was dead. He was quite literally the most free he had been since Italy and even then, it was under Mussolini at the time so that was a bit of a stretch. The calm seemed universal throughout the group until Tim's phone rang. "Oh shit, it's Bruce." Immediately all of them were on alert scanning the surrounding area while Tim talked on the phone, panic in his eyes. "He was on the other side of the park for a walk between meetings and saw a picture of us walking in the park online," Tim said as soon as he hung up. "Wait wait wait" Nico said as Jason looked like he was preparing to literally throw him into the tree. "Bruce as in Bruce Wayne? You're the Wayne's?! And why are you acting like he's gonna shoot me on sight?" "He's gonna shoot adoption papers at you." Damian mumbled, once again begrudgingly reviving a high five from Tim and Dick. Jason just rolled his eyes as he made his hands a step for Nico to get in the tree. "Yes we're the Wayne's. How do you know of us, but not have a clue what we look like?" Nico climbed onto the lowest branch that was a good six feet off the ground. "I was technically homeless until a few months ago and just got a phone last month, sue me for never seeing a picture," he said in a whisper yell before continuing to scale the tree. -------- Daily updates at 12:15am EST
