Midoria Izuku always wanted to be a hero, but what if he finds out how corrupted the hero society in reality is?

Izuku Midoria has always had the dream to save people, the urge to mean something to the world. He thought Allmight was the perfect example of what a hero should be, but that believe got shattered once he met the so called hero. The harsh words everyone had spat at him since he turned four got confirmed once again, this time by his biggest idol. At the age of thirteen the sad reality finally reached him, he was quirkless, in this society quirkless means useless. Does that mean he can't change the world, that's something only the future will tell. That's how his life in the grey starts, will it turn white, will it turn black or will it stay the same? Who knows.

10 parts Ongoing
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.

What if when Izuku was a kid something huge happened. Something that seemed to pass by quickly to others but to him it stretched out for years and years? What if Izuku had a chance, one chance to be free? What if he wanted to be a hero? And he became a vigilante? What if he's able to trick Aizawa and Nezu (and the rest of the heroes?) What if he hid everything he knew and who he was? The LOV, AFO, UA, All Might, everyone is looking over one of his shoulders. How long can he shake them off for? What was he doing these days just for fun? There are no ships in this story. Updates may be scattered and I'll try to update as often as I can. I'll write everything and then come back and edit (maybe.) NONE OF THESE CHARACATERS BELONG TO ME. I own the plot for this plot specifically. This is my first fanfic that I've written. THE ART DOESN'T BELONG TO ME EITHER. Used to be called "WHAT YOU SEE... IT ISN'T ME" also on ao3 - same title, probably same username <3
