Izuku had it going for him. Besides having an abusive father and being bullied, his future was bright. He had an amazing quirk and was extremely smart. Smarter than most of Japan's population. Until he got sick. His future was gone. It was a miracle he didn't die then and there. But there may still be a way for him to be a hero, just in his own way. The vigilante way. What happens when a certain quirk erasing hero decides to take the teenage delinquent under his wing and help him earn a place in the world before it melted from under his grasp? But no matter how hard he tries to get past what happened and ignore his fate creeping closer, he can't stop thinking about what could have been.
