I believe that everyone can choose who they want to be in life. The hero isn’t chosen; the soul chooses to be the hero, and the villain is not forced to be the villain, but appoints him or herself to be. Here’s the thing, though; being a hero could range from helping someone with his or her groceries, to ending world hunger. Being a villain, however, means darkness and danger. I used to think that there was no way that I could be a hero, at least not in this world. That’s where my story begins, in another world.

Izuku Midoriya once dreamed of becoming a hero. But after being diagnosed as quirkless, everything changed. His classmates turned their backs on him. His relatives kept their distance. Even his childhood friend left him behind. At home, the abuse was constant. At school, the bullying never stopped. To the world, Izuku wasn't just powerless-he was worthless. After one especially brutal day, something inside him broke. Standing on the edge of his school's rooftop, he nearly gave up for good. But someone intervened. Someone who saw him, and offered him a place among others who had been discarded by society. Now, Izuku faces a choice: abandon everything and become what the world always accused him of being-or return to the life that made him want to disappear. But things take an unexpected turn when he's sent to a rehabilitation program-inside U.A., the very school he once longed to attend. Surrounded by students who still believe in justice, Izuku is forced to confront the parts of himself he thought he'd buried. Is there still hope left in him to become something more-or has he already become the thing he feared most? ___________________________________________________________________ ⚠️Trigger Warnings⚠️ This story includes content that may be triggering to readers.
