1 The Start of it All

Hi, my name is Izuku Midoriya. Today is the day I get to pick my high school, I've always wanted to go to a hero school; Although it's impossible for me. Why you ask it's because I'm Quirkless. Simply said I'm useless. I've never done anything outstanding besides have higher than average grades.

I've been bullied most of my life by my childhood friend because of my uselessness. Kacchan was the nickname I gave him he was always so short-tempered. He also gave me a nickname that he thought suite me quite well; Deku. It gave me a reminder of how useless I am.

One day while I and him were on the rooftop of our school for my daily beating he told me something that I would never forget. He said to me "Hey useless Deku why don't you take a swan dive off the building maybe you'll get a quirk in your next life?" I was considering this option because if how far I've put up with his bullying and my mom who only stood by and apologized.

I was done I couldn't take the mental and physical abuse. It was too much to handle I started to lose control over my emotions over the smallest of things. At one point I almost hit my mom because of how much she apologized to me one day. After holding in everything and bottling up all my emotions I've begun to stop feeling them and suppress any emotion that wanted to show itself.

I could still be surprised and sad and everything else but I can't show them anymore unless I want to. From how well I've hidden my emotions I could most likely pass a lie detector while lying the entire time. Now on the brink of insanity, I found one ounce of hope; I met All Might on my way to school and asked him quickly "All Might,....um... Can I become a Hero even though I'm quirkless?"

He looked toward me and had a look of pity and sorrow and said in a hopeful voice "Be reasonable kid without a quirk you cant be a hero but you could become a cop." This sentence broke me, It shattered all of my dreams.

I quickly ran all the way to my old school while stopping on the way to buy a piece of paper and a pen. Once in the building, I continued to run to the top of the roof. At the top looking out towards the setting sun wich looked like cotton candy I write my suicide note. After a few quiet and beautiful minutes I finished my letter it read:

Hi to whoever is reading this,

I'm giving up on my life. In other words, I'm jumping off of this building. It's ironic because this is the building in which caused me the most pain. I remember being on top of this roof and getting beat black and blue by my childhood friend Bakugo. I would try my best to hide my wounds from my mom when I got home but it just didn't work. She would get all worried and I would tell her it's fine and tell her a dumb excuse like "Oh, I ran into a pole on my way to school." or something along those lines. After that, I would continuously get beat by Bakugo over and over again. Until one day when I found All Might and asked him if I can become a hero even though I'm quirkless and he said to be realistic and become a cop. From there on I realized my life isn't worth living. They can all call me cowards but I will be the one to decide my fate; and so Goodbye World.

I fold my note three times and slide it under the door and walk towards the edge of the building. Looking down I could feel hazy and almost scared but I steeled myself and committed to what I'm about to do. I take a step forward looking once again at the setting sun as my step only steps on air and I mumble to myself looking at the beautiful scenery " Beautiful..." and plummet towards my death.

Closing my eyes and curling up into a ball in the air I fall for a few seconds wich really feels like an eternity and hears a crack sound. After that, a young adult in a black hoodie who looked overly suspicious grabbed the boy and mumbled something before a galaxy-like portal opened up and the young adult stepped through the portal along with the boy and disappeared.

The next moment the same two people are in a bar. Behind the table was a man with a galaxy-like face with two glowing golden eyes in a tuxedo. Towards the left, you could see a couple of other people who aren't worth mentioning besides a man with spiky black hair and sea-blue eyes with scars and burnt tissue all over his body. Towards the back of the bar, there was a girl with a wide smile with two overly pointy canines with blonde hair, fair skin, and two feline-like golden eyes.

After that, the man who picked up the boy set him down in one of the booths in the corner and pulled down his hood and took off his hoodie. After him doing that you could see him covered in multiple hands with one on his face covering most of his face besides his eyes and mouth. His eyes were a blood red color along with his gray un-kept hair.

After that all of the people gathered around the table and the man with the gray hair started to speak "I know you guys are wondering who this kid is and I am too but I saw him falling from the sky from a rooftop building and guessed that he was commuting suicide and thought he could become one of us also he would owe us a favor."

They all looked at eachother and nodded, the girl with the gold feline eyes carried the boy out of the bar and into the back where there were a whole bunch of different tubes and cages as well as hospital beds. She set him down on one of the hospital beds and put on some gloves before starting to heal him.

She quickly brought over some bottles of weird green liquid and took a lot of alcohol and started to apply it to the many wounds on his body. Once she was finished with the front she flipped him over and did the same thing with his back.

Once she was finished with that side she flipped him back over to where his back was on the bed and opened his mouth and poured one bottle of the green liquid into his mouth. She quickly wrapped up his wounds with some gauze and left him to rest.
