"All Might is not your hero" -- All for One
"Villains hardly differ from heroes when you think about it. We all fight in the name of our values. Who determines what is right and what is wrong? How do we know what they say is the truth?"
Midoriya Izuku never receives a quirk; not from All Might, not from All for One. Instead, he relies solely on his own strength, having studied heroes for years. This knowledge catches All for One's attention, and he trains Young Izuku so that he may pass the UA entrance exam.
All Might said he couldn't become a hero, but he never said he couldn't become a villain and a spy for the League. How will a quirkless boy fare in the hero course?
It's a little slow starting off but it gets better! (In my opinion)

BNHA and the characters do not belong to me, and I use many scenes from the real anime/manga that was written by Kohei Horikoshi. I thank him for his wonderful work! The only thing that is mine in all of this is the story I create based off of the original.

After realizing that Izuku couldn't be a hero he still never gave up. Not until he was told he couldn't be one from his all time favorite hero, All might. Deku had no reason to live anymore, he hated his life. He was even told to commit suicide by his childhood friend that he was madly in love with. His crush hated him. He was also going to UA, one of the top schools out there. His crush was going to leave him for a stupid school, His Kacchan was breaking up with him. ⚠🚨 I should probably make this clear before y'all ready ⚠🚨 This fan fiction may talk about heavy stuff such as: *suicide *sexual harassment (I mean serious!) *angst *smut *gore *extremely heavy language * and some homophobic (really just one line) Please, if anything makes you uncomfortable that is listed above read with caution! Please be safe children ⚠🚨 KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION!! This is my interpretation of how I believe this AU of mha would be. Bc of this I do not support the actions of some twisted characters! Again, this is a interpretation of how I think villian deku who like hero Bakugo would end up as!Complete
To Crush His Pride (Villain Deku x Bakugou🍋)
Izuku Midoriya, the middle school student, disappears mysteriously. It is most likely a suicide, as a note and a blood stain are found by the school building. But the body is never found. All For One finds the boy and gives him multiple powerful quirks. The villain 'Jigoku' is born, but he has no interest in overtaking society or other typical villainous things. He only craves for one thing: Revenge on Katsuki Bakugou. At least, that was the plan. But then, Jigoku found out that Bakugou had been secretly in love with Midoriya. (This is smut. Proceed with caution.) (I do not own any of the pictures or the characters of My Hero Academia.)Complete

Captured By Love - BNHA Villain Redemption AU
Izuku Midoriya has never felt more confused. Being a villain has taught him to never get attached to anyone, because they'll either end up betraying you, or you'll be attending their funeral by the end of the month. Always look over your shoulder. And never, ever get caught. So when he meets a girl that attends U.A high, the single worst place for him to possibly be, he is utterly baffled by himself when he offers to walk her back to the school. I mean, it's only until she gets back safely. And then he'll go straight back to his musty apartment and crazy neighbors. What could possibly go wrong? #1 izukuxnejire - 3/1/2021 #1 hado - 3/7/2021 #1 quirkizuku 3/11/2021 #6 villain 3/11/2021 I don't own BNHA or that show/manga's characters (though that would be pretty cool) This is an Izuku x Nejire fanfiction, in case you were wondering. (Also), Izuku is incredibly OP in this fanfic, and it'll get explained within the first few chapters. Just bear with it for a chapter or two, and it'll make sense eventually. (Also, also) This is my first fanfic, so please don't be too hard on me!Complete
Pick a Side /Villain! Deku/ ✔
"Do you think.... That I could be a hero too? Even... without a quirk?" "Without a quirk? Not happening, kid." All his life Izuku Midoriya dreamed of becoming a hero just like his biggest inspiration, All Might. It didn't matter if he was quirkless... Right? One day, the young boy got to meet his hero. He asks the question he'd been dying to ask, but afraid of knowing the answer nevertheless. The answer crushed him. That was the day he let go of his dreams. Izuku Midoriya, the quirkless loser. That's what he'd always be. No one believed in him anymore. Not even himself. Until... The league of villains offered him acceptance. They told him that he WAS good enough. But does Midoriya truly belong as a villain? It may be time for him to pick to side... COMPLETED/ August 14, 2019 !Trigger Warning! This story contains blood, violence, gore, strong language, and some sadistic stuff I guess? xD Read at your own risk! Cover image art isn't mine, however, I did do the editing for it! Also, the characters in this fanfiction aren't mine at all either! [Okay, so ships. There is Tododeku and Bakudeku in here. But to be clear, it's not a huge part of the plot so if you came here for it, you might be somewhat disappointed, which is why I'm saying it. I got rid of the tags for them cuz I didn't want to disappoint people but now people think this is a straight story somehow so I'm putting the tags back out to weed out the homophobes B)]Complete

Falling (Depressed Deku Fanfic) (COMPLETE)
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.
