Izuku Midoriya and his mother Inko Midoriya live in a small town named Kurasuwan that sits on the edge of a large forest. Vendors are selling their products left and right, thanks to the rush that goes on for one short month every year, this month is the only time people would be able to buy specific types of fruit that only grow in that very forest behind the town. 

The forest had never seemed like a scary place to Izuku, for, even in the dead of night when the moon couldn't be seen through the thick canopy of the towering trees and even the dimest of fireflies were nowhere to be found, the forest was still bright enough to see his hands swaying at his sides and the winding path infront of him. So walking through the forest now in broad daylight, with light from the sun filtering through the leaves was nothing to be scared of, and even when he came across a large glade with a strange man sleeping in the center of it, he could only be curious.

Even in the dark that forest wasn't frightening; however, sometimes it's not the dark that's scary.


The town, his home, his entire life, was now burning brighter than the sun, lighting up the smoke and ash-filled sky. Suddenly, the darkness seemed more welcoming than the light, because where there's smoke, there's fire, and fire lights up the night like nothing else.

《DISCLAIMER》
For one this story ain't great so go easy on me would ya, it's not my first time writing fanfics but it is my first time publicizing one of my stories. I've pre-written the first 5 chapters so keep that in mind if you have any ideas on things that could happen in the story(which are 100% welcome). This story will follow Izuku's timeline of events, meaning if he doesn't know something you won't either. I mean you can make theories which would be fun to read, but I personally won't be giving you any direct answers until Izuku figures them out. I also will not be writing smut, but it may be implied. I plan on updating weekly, and I hope ya'll en

42 parts Complete Mature
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.
From Vigilante to Hero (Vigilante Izuku Fanfic) (Discontinue & being rewritten) by Son_of_Wayne
6 parts Complete Mature
Izuku Midoriya was born with multiple quirks but couldn't actively use them because his body couldn't handle them plus he couldn't tell anyone or he would be targeted by many villains if word got out that he had multiple quirks. His mother and the quirk doctor were the only ones who knew this besides Izuku. Not only that but because none of his quirks would activate until later he couldn't prove to have one thus he was labeled as quirkless by his peers and school. Understanding the danger of having multiple quirks Izuku just pretends to be quirkless but trains hard taking up dance, martial arts, and gymnastics training his body for when he awakens his quirks. When he is 12 his mother died protecting him from a villain. Seeing his mother's death with his own eyes led to him awakening his quirks and his grandfather takes guardianship of him. After his mother's death Izuku chooses to become a vigilante who saves all those he can. After a few years later Izuku is 15 and in his last year in middle school. Everyone still believes him to be a quirkless loser but in truth, Izuku holds many secrets. Izuku wasn't planning on going to the UA Hero course instead he plan to go into their Support Course. However, things don't always go as planned when one day while walking to school Izuku saves a child from being hit by a car not knowing Nezu was watching the entire time. Later when doing a drop to give a certain underground hero information he is caught. After that he is taken in for interrogation, told he will be going into the UA hero course, and even gets adopted by Nedzu. However, just cause he force to enter UA doesn't mean he will stop doing his vigilante work.
camping - smart Deku by always-tired_kitten
14 parts Ongoing
Because of a mission class 1a, 1b and some pro heroes are camping in a forest full of dangerous creatures and deadly plants. The mission was supposed to be a simple exploratory mission but seeing all this troubles on it, Izuku Midoriya questioned not only the mission itself but also the principal of UA Nezu who sent them on this mission and a red winged chicken who went with the mission for some odd reasons. Adding to the chaos two certain pro heroes and a student (you might guess who already) develop forbidden feelings for each other. important information about the story: - Izuku isn't a crybaby, the last time he cried was like in elementary school cuz that was when he accepted that the world wouldn't be fair to him and decided to train - since Izuku wanted to become a hero he actually trained and studied a lot, in other words he is very smart and strong even quirkless - due to him training his ass off he has a lot more control over his quirk like 50% and the past user let him unlock black whip and float early - because of his past he has trust issues which is why no one knows how much he actually has control over his quirks besides his true best friend Mei Hatsume - Mei and Izuku are best friends, Izuku told Mei everything cuz they trust each other a lot and they just share a sibling bond, also they train and built together - Izuku is more of a insomniac than Shinso because of nightmares of his past. After Bakugo being kidnapped his nightmares worsen. Usually he reads books to keep himself busy or he teached himself stuff a usual teen shouldn't (probably) know like hacking or poisoning. He already taught himself this kind of things before he went to UA - his analysis are top notch comparable to Nezu's so are his plans but due to trust issue he no one knows besides Mei For more info's read the story. Also my main language isn't english so if I make mistakes feel free to correct me. Warning: first story, bad english, cursing, beware of the RatGod

Out patrolling with his father, Shoto Todoroki sees someone towering over the ledge of a broad building. Believing the boy will jump, Shoto scrambles to save him. That's when he encounters Midoriya for the first time. The young boy is reckless and arrogant, but something about him easily reels Shoto in. As they start talking, Midoriya abruptly ends their conversation, leaving his notebook behind. Mere hours later, Shoto tries to return the notebook, and meets Izuku instead. He's Midoriya's identical; there's no way Midoriya and Izuku are different people, right? Wrong. The more Shoto learns about the different personalities inhabiting Izuku Midoriya's body, the harder he seems to fall for the troubled villain/ anxious sweetheart. Midoriya works for the League of Villains, but something about the whole situation screams deceit. Is Midoriya truly evil? Can Izuku do the right thing, and push past his cowardice to serve the greater good? And can Shoto break free of his past, and start participating in life instead of watching from the sidelines? Two Sides of a Coin is a Tododeku Villain AU If your a homophobe or something, then just f*ck off. It's a boyxboy anime fanfic. Don't hate, just move on. Note Worthy: -playlist in the last chapter -i don't own any of the characters; they're all from MHA -cursing -touches on depression a bit: minor trigger warning maybe? -nothing too inappropriate, just a tad steamy (I'll give a heads up for people avoiding that kind of thing) -kiribaku tinee tiny bit -bakubitch -badass villain fights *punches air* -def doesn't follow plot of show/manga -honestly not enough Aizawa :( -complete
An Abnormal Way to Find Love || Tododeku :3 (DISCONTINUED) by cdelete123
11 parts Complete
WARNING -There are no quirks in this story, if you are here for a tododeku story with quirks it is not here ;( -There is no "dirty dirty ;)" in this story, If you are here for a tododeku story with "the dirty dirty ;)" it is not here (I don't write "dirty dirty ;)" so you won't find it in any other story I write) Midoriya is a mostly normal boy. The only thing that sets him aside from the rest of the world is, the tremendous amount of danger he gets himself into. Unlike most normal people Midoriya is followed by an incredible quantity of bad luck. Through all of the danger he's been in he got plenty of scars, that he doesn't really want people to know about, so he uses clothing to hide them. Todoroki is also a mostly normal boy. The only thing that makes him different is his abnormal eye for little details. He can't help but notice little thing that most don't see in people and find it interesting. This keen attention to detail has been with him since he was a little boy. Yaoyorozu is Todoroki's only friend. Both parents forcing them to go on dates, Both very gay. Midoriya, on the way to UA's entrance exam, and Todoroki, on the way to one of his dates, ran into each other, but how odd is it to notice what anyone could notice? Why was this shorter, green haired boy wearing two shirts, (one being long sleeved) and jeans near the end of the summer? **Also Yaoyorozu has a pretty big role in this story and I don't feel like typing Yaoyorozu out every time I would usually have to cuz i'm lazy like that so everyone calls her Yaomomo ;0 I hope you enjoy this story even though it was (1.) my first actual non planned AND posted fanfiction, and (2.) I will not be continuing it! I'm still proud of most of what I did (I think) because I believe that I had some good Ideas but ended up not being able to motivate myself to keep going- sorry if the story ends up disappointing anyone ;-;
