Story Description:
When the world cheers as she is dragged away in cuffs-framed by the League of Villains and condemned by public opinion-Izumi Midoriya disappears forever. What no one knows is that the government never intended to imprison her. They intended to remake her.
She awakens in a government hospital, her reflection unfamiliar: older, sharper, carrying quiet exhaustion and restrained fury. This is Izzy Adler-her new name, her new face, her new life. In her mind, a calm, iron-willed voice speaks: Sadie Adler, whose memories, instincts, and unfinished death now live inside her. Along with them comes a terrifying power-Death Eyes, the ability to see the truth of mortality.
The government gives Izzy everything a hero is supposed to want: diplomatic immunity, recognition, and a code name whispered only in secure rooms-Death Justice. She is no longer disposable.
Not everyone betrayed her. Toru Hagakure, Kyoka Jiro, Setsuna Tokage, and Mei Hatsume remain by her side, choosing her even when loving her means standing against the system. In quiet hospital rooms and stolen dates under surveillance, bonds deepen-soft kisses, shared grief, and unspoken fear weaving into something powerful and dangerous. Izzy does not die in this story-but she does change, and so does everyone who loves her.
This is a mature, emotional fanfic about identity after loss, love that survives betrayal, and a hero who refuses to be owned-walking the line between justice and vengeance with death in her eyes and devotion in her heart.
