Origins Retold - An MHA Heroes AU

A tale of Touya Todoroki and Tenko Shimura in pursuit of their hero dreams....

Having been pretty much ruled as quirkless by most people around him, six-year-old Tenko Shimura finds his hero dream becoming bleaker by the days. However, when he discovers something sinister about his own quirk during its manifestation, his dreams now seemed impossible as a whole.

On the other hand, Touya Todoroki discovers a crisis of his own. Having been raised in a loving family with his own father, Endeavor, as a top hero of Japan, Touya dreamt about becoming a hero for as long as he could remember. Yet, when his intolerance of his own quirk surfaced, his hero dream began to burn away.

As the lives of these two young boys collide, would they be able to defy all odds and lead the next generation of young heroes, or would their hero dreams prove too much for them to obtain?

TL;DR: A heroes AU where some of the villains never became villains and are heroes instead. Just my way of denying canon angst by making different angst (and fluff though- I'm not that mean... maybe....)
