Villain Deku au

Midoriya was having a normal day. Everything was great. 

Until it wasn't. 

Suddenly he was in a completely different world getting arrested for being a villain. 

Up was down, left was right, Bakugo was quirkless and Todoroki was dead. 

And there was a villain running around with his face.

"Wait!" I cried, trying desperately to keep Todoroki here. To not allow him to be taken by the villainous version of myself. 

The villain pouted. "Oh, poor Izuku Midoriya. This must be so hard for you, huh? Seeing how you wanted to be the one to end Endeavour's son yourself?" Todoroki looked at me with wide eyes, the ghost of betrayal behind them. 

I tried not to be fazed by that look and focussed on keeping my voice steady. "You asked if I had a quirk." The villain, Deku, stopped, as I knew he would. If he was like me, if he was me, then his dream... his fantasies... they should all be the same as mine once were. "I didn't answer."

"You don't have a quirk," he hissed.

"Yes I do."

Ever since Izuku Midoriya joined U.A. High School and settled in, he knew that the League of Villains were after him and his quirk: One For All. However, when the time comes when Bakugo is the target and is only seconds away from being captured, Midoriya throws himself in the chaos and ends up saving Bakugo, only at the cost of his own safety as he is captured instead. Midoriya is brought back to the League of Villains' hideout and with him there, Shigaraki plans on changing the young boy's mindset and plans to use force against him. When Midoriya isn't able to escape for three years and no one can seem to find him, he begins to lose hope and his wounds only bleed more. Even when he goes back in time with the help of a pro hero's quirk, he is diagnosed with depression and struggles to go on through life. He doesn't feel like himself. He needs someone. He needs someone so badly. But what if there isn't anybody to help Midoriya? How will Midoriya cope when someone close to him dies right in his arms? Warning! This story will contain depression, suicide talk, torture (not explained explicitly), violence, and a whole lot of angst! Also, this story won't contain any ships. So, there isn't any BakuDeku, TodoDeku, etc., it's just a depressing story with Midoriya with his friends trying to change themselves to help him and their own selves in the future.

Why Bother?

24 parts Complete Mature

"Why be a hero when you have the power to go against the Commission? It's a waste of time trying to save people in the end. After all, you're just post poning their deaths" Midoriya sighed as he sat on the edge of a building, he looked at Tokyo. Hawks flew to his side and sat down. "I don't see why you won't consider becoming a hero, your quirk is perfect for it" he groaned. Midoriya tucked in his flaming wings, "hawks. Not everyone wants to be the center of attention" An anti-hero Deku story. Disclaimers: I own nothing except the story idea. I do not condone any of the character's actions. Don't replicate what was done.
