The life of a sidekick isn't glamorous. It's being a henchman minus the law-breaking. Heroes get the glory, and villains can do whatever they want. Sidekicks are merely tools that are sometimes mentioned. 
Tommy Innit, Tubbo Underscore, Ranboo Beloved, and Purpled (no-last-name-given) have the worst luck. The heroes they work under aren't the best.... In the sense that they are physically and emotionally abused by the "good guys". 
When these four have a chance encounter at a cafe, they get an outlet for their messed up lives. Even better, they get adopted! Sort of! Not without loud complaining (Tommy-)

Vigilantes are just broke Heroes

16 parts Complete Mature

Tommy Innit Minecraft, son of one of the top heroes, didn't get to live the childhood he should've had. Now, Tommy is a 17-year-old vigilante who's faked death and ran away to live with his 2 best friends. Life was perfect for a long time... until a dramatic increase in crime brought Tommy's hero family to the city of Logstedshire- where Tommy now lived. !THIS FIC CONTAINS A LOT OF DARK DARK THEMES LIKE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS, MURDER, ABUSIVE FAMILIES, AND MUCH MORE. REALLY BAD CHAPTERS HAVE WARNINGS, BUT NOT ALL OF THEM. DONT READ THIS IF YOUR SENSITIVE TO DARK THEMES! *This fanfiction was inspired by a spiderman movie and all the other countless vigilante Tommyinnit stories I've read.
