Haunted

"Now that I think about it, there actually is a way for you to become a hero. Why don't you take a swan dive off the roof and pray that you'll be born with a quirk in your next life!"

"A 14-year-old boy named Izuku Midoriya has just committed suicide by jumping off the roof of Aldera Junior High School."

"Hey, Kacchan! It's been a while, hasn't it?"

"DEKU?!"

~--~

Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugou were childhood friends. They spent all their time together whenever they could. The two boys were pretty much inseparable.

That all changed when Katsuki got his quirk and Izuku was deemed quirkless.

Katsuki became more rash and arrogant. He thought that he was better than everyone and others would just get in the way of his goals and dreams to become the number one hero. This included getting rid of Izuku. He wanted nothing to do with his former best friend, whom he now called 'Deku'. The problem was that he could never seem to get rid of him. The boy followed him everywhere he went and this was their relationship for the next ten years. Izuku following Katsuki around like a puppy and Katsuki bullying and belittling him.
What Katsuki didn't realize was how badly his actions and words affected Izuku. But unfortunately, he didn't know this until it was too late.
