Dreams were like butterflies; fragile and creatures with wings. Sometimes they flew away, sometimes they were caught, sometimes they were crushed under the boot of another, sometimes they were crushed under your own. Midoriya Izuku had a single butterfly he'd chased his entire life. That butterfly represented being a hero. It represented his hopes and dreams and wishes. And it was crushed. 
All Might, the Symbol of Peace. The one who'd crushed Izuku's dreams himself. 
Quirkelss was not a butterfly, but a wolf. An obsessive hunter stalking him wherever he went. Killing his butterflies one by one. 
Maybe being a hero was overrated anyway. 
Maybe being the one who started the fires was better than being the one to put them out. 
Maybe it's time Izuku tried starting some fires of his own.

WARNING: Viewer discretion advised. This story contains descriptions of murder, suicide, sex, and other mature content. Spoilers also ahead. ~~ What if Deku wasn't born quirkless? What if the reason for Katsuki's hurtful words had to do with the dark past Inko desperately tried to keep hidden from the outside world? What if becoming a hero wasn't the answer after all? ~~ My eyes widen. "I've decided. Young man, you will inherit my quirk." I let out a sigh of relief, laying down on the ground as my anxiety fades. I'm overwhelmed with joy, tears streaming down my face as my body is overcome with brutal exhaustion. I don't plan on using this power to become a hero, but All Might doesn't need to know that. I can't think of being a hero, or anything else for now. I need to get stronger, even stronger than my father. Wait for me mom, Kacchan, I'm coming. ~~ After that night, things only became harder for Izuku. The mental pressure was too much, to the extent that it took an unhealthy turn. Izuku could barely handle the pressure of having no one to rely on, torn between becoming a hero and being taught how to assassinate by the killer of heroes. It wasn't long before his sanity began to split. ~~ "It's okay. Honestly, you're the first person I've met who doesn't think my quirk is more suited to become a villain.." Shinsou said. After spending so much time with villains, I no longer thought of the word the same. "If you ask villains their story, you'll probably think they'd make pretty good protagonists. We always see things from the hero's perspective but we rarely ask how the villain ended up the way they are. The heroes are the real villains if you ask any villain, and even villains can be a hero to someone." ~~ I killed someone. I know he deserved it, yet I still couldn't look down at my own hands the same. Dried blood covered the bandages I wore around my wrists when I train with Stain. I had no choice but to accept it. I became a hero killer.

An Izuku Midoriya fan fic It started with the death of a dream. It started with the death of his mother. It started with a close encounter It started with an epiphany. Izuku Midoriya could never be a hero... but he could still save people. He never imagined where his life would go from there. I'm sorry this might be bad I just hope some people enjoy it. There may be some triggering subjects.
