I've got a time-saving idea for you. Take a swan-dive off the roof and pray you'll have a quirk in your next life!" "You need to see what the reality for what it is, kid." These words stung, leaving scars deeper than any flesh wound could. Especially for someone like Izuku Midoriya. In a world where quirks are the norm, and heavily praised, fate is cruel to those without. With the stress of school, his childhood best friend telling him to kill himself, and his own hero saying he has no hope of becoming a hero, Izuku was jaded. And bitterness can cause the sprout of something deadly. In a desperate attempt to gain a quirk, Izuku made some shady deals, beginning to converse in hushed whispers with a certain purple-tinged fellow, making promises of power, the ability to prove those who doubted you wrong. These promises overtook Midoriya's mind, and soon corrupted him. He was one of them now. He became the very thing he never wanted to become. A villain.
