Izuku Midoriya, the quirkless nobody who vanished years ago. He was hardly missed, if you were to ask his old neighbors or classmates who he was they would probably would ask why you cared about that 'useless deku'. Or perhaps they wouldn't even remember the little boy with whose smile always lit up a room. Well it used to that is. No one remembered him, so no one cared when he slipped away into the night after years of being mistreated by society.
Itsuki, the night vigilante, the unofficial symbol of peace for both villains and heroes alike. He seemed to be everywhere always protecting and saving the people who failed to save him. Itsuki a shadow no one saw, a savior to the society who broke him.
Why is it that the best of us are treated the worse?
Why are some saved, but others forgotten?
How could someone 'useless' become one of the best?

Cover art courtesy of @Vannahbug-368 on Wattpad and lucifer_morningstud on Discord <3 They accept commissions! ~~~ Izuku Midoriya was never normal.

That was- after he realized that keeping his guard up was the only way to remain undetected and unharmed. He learned that the hard way. But...what happens when a certain pastel purple-haired boy comes flying into Deku's life? Will Deku's apathetic ways be silenced? Or will he push this one away like the rest of them...the result may shock you... ~WARNING - YOU MIGHT JUST BECOME HOOKED~ ~MATURE FOR CUSSING AND GORE~Complete
The words that stabs my heart
Aizawa: He walked out of the trees that morning-silent, shaking, eyes on fire with fear. I remember the way he said it: "There are villains here." And then he collapsed. That's how I met him. A kid with nowhere to go, a quirk that showed him every ugly thought people hid, and no one to protect him. But he still warned us. He still saved everyone. I couldn't leave him after that-because I see him for what he is. Not broken. Just... surviving. And I'll make sure he never has to survive alone again.

Azrael (Vigilante Deku)
Izuku Midoriya had everything a 4-year-old child could wish for. He had a family, a home and a quirk that was like no other. Thanks to a tragic and very bloody night, he was left with nothing then his own memories of a happy past and his quirk to protect himself. He quickly found out that people are looking at him because of his quirk. All the people ever wanted was his quirk and not him. Years pass, and the little green bean learned to trust no one but himself. If one was to ask him what was his quirk, he would say he was quirkless. It was only a protection measurement he found out to be necessary. After all, a quirkless life was better than a life in a laboratory. One day he was fortunately enough to meet the number 1 hero and could finally ask him the question of his life. What will however happen if the symbol of peace gives him an answer he has never though he would hear? More importantly, what will he do once he finds out he still has family out there? Will Izuku be able to find them? And what will poor Izuku think about his new family? Will they be able to save him from himself? Let's find out!

Running late.... as always....
Late again? Yes... what else... heroes are not on time either but for a multiple part timer it meant everything to be on time. There was a reason Izuku Midoriya took up soo many part time jobs. He simply needed the money for himself thanks to his stupid parents mistake. Oh well as if he could change the past. Now he has to live with that mistake and pray that he would get it fixed one day. Little did he know that that day may come sooner rather than later thanks to that one babysitting job he took upon. A/N: This is a mha fanstory hope you enjoy!

Shinko's Pursuit
With his dreams shattered and his future seeming to be lost, Izuku Midoriya runs. He ran away from police custody before they even knew what to do with him and lived off the streets. He didn't know what to do. His mother dead and his source of stability gone, he looses his will to anything but keep fighting. Most people would turn to villainy after this, always searching with vengeance and an anger that could never be tamed. But Izuku isn't most people. He couldn't bring himself to hurt people so he decided he'd be a hero, just not by title. His heart has always longed to save those in need, after all. But he still has a goal in mind, and he'll do whatever it takes to achieve it. Or; Everyone is stupid + Vigilante Deku (The cover art is my own, don't repost)Complete
