Chapter Text

When he was four izuku midoriya was told he was quirkless and his dream was crushed. Then his life fell apart, his friends started to ignore him, his best-friend started to hate him but that was his reality, that was all he knew and that went on until one day the day when he  died.

It was a cold Friday morning. Izuku had only got an hour of sleep before his alarm went off. He was still sore from the day before. He wanted to stay home but he knew he couldn't miss another day of school.

His gakuran still smelled of smoke from the day before he had washed it the best he could but couldn't get that smell out. He ran his fingers over it slightly feeling the singed fabric he hated how rough it felt on his skin.

He opened the door to the bathroom and looked in the mirror seeing the dried blood on his cheek. He sighed peeling the bandage off of his face, seeing his wound still red and swollen. He took some toilet paper and ran it under water and dabbed his wound slightly, taking off the excess blood. Then he wiped the dried blood off of his cheek. He was used to this by now. He took his shirt off and winced as he ran his fingers over a bruise. He grabbed his gakuran and slipped it on the sleeves running down to the middle of his hand. His mum bought it that way so that when he grew he'd fit into it. He never did though so now everyone mocked him for that as well. He looked at his watch and quickly finished changing and left his house. He didn't bother to say bye to his mum she was still asleep.

He started his walk to school just staring at the floor and down streets every couple of  streets he would see people talk or exchanging hands he knew it was people dealing drugs but he knew better to tell the police last time he did his arm got broken. He took a turn down a back alley so that he could get to school sooner but then he saw the blond spikey hair and the small trail of smoke coming for the two next to him. It was Kacchan, his former best-friend. He turned around and took a step trying to get away but then he made his first mistake as his foot hit the floor.

The loud rustling of the empty packet broke the silence through the alley. He knew they saw him so he weighed his options in his head. If he ran they'd chase him and be extra angry in school. If he just stayed he should be fine well relatively fine. He bit the inside of his cheek and turned around

“h-hey kacchan s-sorry for disturbing you i'll just l-leave.”

he began to turn

“don't even think about it, nerd.”

The taller boy said his voice filled with the same anger as usual.Then the first punch came then the second straight after. kick after kick plus the occasional explosion to his ribs to keep the injuries concealed even with their attempts the injuries still slipped over his too face and hands the warm feeling of his own blood running down his body. He hated how it felt. He hated everything about this he just wished it would stop. They did after awhile it was only five minutes but it felt like hours the pain the suffering all of it hurt he wishes it would all stop. He watches as kacchan and his friends leave and he hates them so much.

His eyes begin to feel heavy ‘maybe a nap won't hurt, I still have a few hours to get to school’ he thought to himself as his eyes began to close, the slight raise and lowering of his chest stopped after a while.

His chest stopped rising. The pain faded. Not because it healed but because there was nothing left to feel.The world went dark. Cold.And then… 

Light.

“hello Izuku”

 the boy turned suddenly and saw a bright blue figure talking to him with two smaller figures in the distance

“wh-who are you”

he asked while backing away

“i am a lot of people” the figure beings to glitch and transform into silhouette of people his colour changing every time “people you meet in the future” he transforms again into small silhouettes, people he recognized from when he was a kid “from the past” he changes once again into silhouettes from his class then into a silhouette of kacchan for long than anyone else “people you hate” he then turns into a silhouette of his mother “love” he flashes once again into silhouettes of heroes and lingers on all might “or admire”

 the smaller of the two look up at the figure that's taken the form of all might 

“where” he takes a moment to look around everything looks wrong almost like it not there as if it would vanish if he got close “where am i” 

The figure smirks well. Izuku can't tell if he's smirking but he can feel it “that depends on what you mean… do you mean where is izuku midoriya or where are you”

the smaller boy takes a moment 

“th-there the same question”

the taller figure lets out a chuckle “no”he waves his hand and a portal appears that is looking over him in an alley “izuku midoriya is dead in an alley less than twenty minutes away from his school” the figure points to him “but you your in heaven, valhalla, limbo whatever you want to call it”

izuku's starts to tear up 

“i-i im dead”

he managed to get out in between cries. The figure changes once more into his mother “you are…but you dont have to stay that way” izuku looks up at the figure “you see people like me gain power strength from what we call conduits…” the figure takes in izuku's confused expression “the glowing baby you call the first quirk user was the a conduit so is every quirk user there all conduits giving others power… yet i dont have a conduit”

izuku nods slightly

“you want me to be your conduit”

the figure goes onto one knee so he is eye level with the boy and turns back to his first form “exactly” the two fingers in the back starts to make there way closer “you see as far as i know none of us have ever talked to one of you, you'd be the first just like i- no like we are”he puts his arms around the two figures “you see when we were born we split and i'm not saying where triplets we were one and are now three all with separate feeling emotions …powers and that's why we're here exiled abandoned…just like you izuku” izuku takes a moment to think of all the times he was left and forgotten about “but we can change that you'd be strong” he turns into a silhouette of him of izuku wearing a cape looking like a hero “you'd have friends you'd have us… and we would have you and would be welcomed back home”

izuku looks at the three of them determined “ho-how” the figures extend their hands towards him as they touch they glitch together and form one hand 

“a simple shake and you'd wake up the whole day staring again”

izuku goes to shake their hand but it pulls away

“just so you know this is a one time deal… the whole revival thing it's not easy we can only do it this once”

izuku nod “anything el-else” the three figures smile well he can't tell if they did they dont have faces but they seem like there smiling even the red one what seems to be angry almost the exact opposite to the main blue one where as the orange one is a mix of the two.

They put their hand down again and izuku grabs it and shakes it. 

‘Thanks’ he thinks to himself as the same light he first saw comes back again.

The loud beeping of his alarm wakes him again but this isn't the same sleep deprived izuku now he has his purpose, his life has meaning. He can be a hero .

Chapter Text

Izuku shut off his alarm. He knows that wasn't just a dream he knows it was something else. He looks down at his watch “seven am” he whispers to himself he was definitely back in his room and it was definitely earlier than before.

He entered the bathroom and took off his shirt and looked at his chest the same as last time except this time he wasn't covered with bruises and cuts he was healed it was all healed. He peeled off the bandage of his face. The wound that he saw in the morning was now fully healed, not even a scar just gone.

Izuku looked at himself in the mirror and smiled. He has a quirk he just doesn't know what it is or what it can do.

“I can help with that”

izuku looks around to find the voice

“i'm in your head kid you cant see me”

he boy sighs in relief worried that the voice might of woke up his mother

“oh so i ca-”

he begins to say

“i wouldn't talk out loud to us people might think you crazy”

the voice explained

“oh yeah… well we're in private right now so it shouldn't matter… so how do i work my quirk”

Izuku asked as he put his gakuran on

“First ill need to explain somethings… so i and the rest of my people are called divines we are born as you humans invent so when humans made fire the fire divine was born”

Izuku nodded along

“So what are you the divine of?”

“I am the divine of video games… now if you stop interrupting”

‘I interrupted once’ he thought

“Twice now remember I can hear your thoughts too… Now how your quirk works is on a video game system so right now you're as weak as ever but once you start doing quests and leveling up youll gain gear and then you can equip skill points you understand?”

He takes a moment to process it all

“Yeah i think i do… but how do i get quests”

“Easy just talk to people youll get rumours and after that youll get them in your quest log”

The boy looks around

“What quest log”

The disembodied voice chuckled

“On your bedside table and it tracks your inventory before you ask…oh and just think of the item name and picture it where you want it to summon on your body and you'll have it… and one more thing kid this will be are last convection for a while i'll only speak to you when i think you can't handle something other than that you on your own.”

Izuku walks into his room and picks the book up of his table it looks old like really old and is bound with leather the only words on it saying ‘log’ he flips through the pages quickly the weren't like other old books he had felt it was like he was the first to touch them he flipped to the front and saw the first few quests

‘So stealth and empathy are my highest stats’ he thinks to himself he smiles as he runs his finger over the ture hero skill. 3 quests 2 he knew he was doing but the 3rd he'd never be a vigilante while he can admit there are good vigilantes it locking him out of the hero course was too much. Although a quirkless kid suddenly getting into the hero course would look suspicious, people would start to talk and he would be able to use his quirk openly. Never mind ill figure it out when i get there. But now isnt the time to think about ua i have to gain

20 levels in 4 months that's 5 levels a month so basically a level a week. The first level will be easy just go to school with a quirk for the first time. His eyes darted over the ture hero skill one last time before putting the log into his bag.

Chapter Text

Izuku was ready, more ready than ever today was his first school day with a quirk, his first time being equal with everyone even though they wont know it he will and that was enough for now.  

 Izuku looked at his watch, it was 8 o’clock which gave him 45 minutes to get to school. He put his bags straps around his shoulders and left his house. It was the exact same route he had taken the first time just without the shortcut leading to his death before this time just taking the long way just leaving him with 15 minutes before class.

The halls were packed with people crowding around talking about nothing in particular. Izuku flipped his bag around and pulled out the log and just  flicking through pages trying to blend in as usual

“Did you hear about that kid that got beaten up?”

“Huh no who”

“Dont know his name just know he was beaten bad he's in the nurse's office now”

Izuku notices a faint vibration from the log as he flips back to the front

‘New quest

Find out what happened to the boy

Prior quests: none

Level requirement: none

Quest type: found

Reward:

 1 random (common) item 

15 EXP’

He looks down at his watch again 8:32 so 13 minutes to find out what happened and complete the quest he shut over the log and shoved it into his bag and rushed over to the nurses office it wasn't that far away no more than 2 minutes go by before he gets there he pushed the door one to see the sterile white room he took a seat next to a boy who was gripping his arm

“Wh-what happened to you”

He asked, pointing to the boy's arm.

“Fell down some stairs” 

Izuku chuckles 

“Thoses stairs explode and have spiky hair”

The other boy joins him in laughing 

“Yeah I bumped into him and called him a jerk” he jesters towards his arm “and evidently he didn't like that… what about you”

“Migraine” 

Izuku said not entirely lying looking down at his watch 8:36 it'll take 5 minutes to get to class give or take

“You think she'll be here soon”

The other boy asks

“Probably not she smokes alot shell probably be here in like 10 or 20 minutes…i thought that i might catch her and guess i'm just unlucky… just stay here you should be fine i'm going to run cant be late see you around”

“Yeah bye i guess”

Izuku leaves the room he didnt expect it to be so easy maybe he got lucky with his charisma stats, he pulled his log out of his bag and read over the quest

Item granted 

Lost homework with scribbles of lighting bolts (could open up a future quest line)

EXP granted 15

Leveled up 

Level 2 

Plus 3 stat points to add

EXP to next level 30’

Izuku thinks for a moment ‘lucks my worst stat right now maybe 2 in luck and 1 in strength that would make them equal and he could possible get out of fights faster’ he flips to his stat pages and presses on luck hopping that it will add the stat point 

‘Luck 0 –> 1’

He presses the page again then flicks to strength and presses that page once as well

‘Luck 1 –> 2

Strength 1 –> 2’

He then flicks to his inventory page and presses on the lost homework he runs his finger over the lightning bolts ‘possible electricity quirk’ he looks over the homework its stuff that he had learned recently  so probably same age range he can make out ‘yar’ on top of the homework before it gets scribbled over so they probably go to a different school since for his homework it has ‘aldera junior high’. ‘Ill look up junior highs in the area when I get home’ he thinks to himself, shoving the homework into his pocket and starts to head towards class.

Even outside the door he could hear bakugou talking. He pushed the door open and attempted to sneak past all his classmates but lo and behold his ex best friend notices 

“Hey deku… funny you should get her now we were just talking about wastes of space”

The snickers that followed just made Izuku more determined ‘just 4 more months”  just looks at the floor and makes his way to his desk

“What wrong nerd upset you going to cry”

The mutters coming from his classmates werent even hidden. He knew what they were  saying but it didnt matter what they thought, not any more 120 give or take more days and hell take the entrance exams and he'll be in ua…hopefully. But for now he just needed to get through this day 

The rest of the day was the same old blur teachers talking about subjects he was hiding during lunch and all the while not even the faintest twinge from the log, not one quest to cut through the monogamy of school, just sat there waiting for it to let out.

A bell cuts through izuku's thoughts

“All right class i'll see you all tommor- no i won't it's a friday ill see you all next week on monday enjoy your weekends” the man packs his laptop in his bag and leaves the room faster than the students it was one of the meny routines of teachers izuku had picked up over the years.

Izuku himself begins to get up after everyone has left to not get in anyone's way he knew that bakugou and his friends were still in the room but he also knew they would never leave until he did he heard the blond boy laugh probably at what he was about to say

“Ya know, if you want a quirk, there might be another way, take a swan dive of the roof of the building and pray youll be born with a quirk in your next life”

Izkuk couldnt help but start to cry even though he had a quirk it was still hard to hear his childhood best friend tell him to kill himself he had always hate bakugou deep down but this plus the fact if not for the divine he would of killed izuku this made him hate him fully with every fiber of his being he pushed past the other boys and left the school

With the tears still in his eyes he ran out of the school he didnt know where he was going but he just couldnt be near them at the time it was hard even thoung he had always hated him it was still hard he just wishes he could prove him wrong or hurt him back or something but while hes in his own world trying to block everyone out he walk straight into another person 

“I-i-im so sorry are you o-okay” he lift himself up and outreaches his hand to help the other guy

He garbs his hand “ no it was my fault standing in the str-” he notices his face ond how he was cleary crying “are you okay you didnt hurt yourself in the fall?”

“N-no just some jerk from school”

“Oh what school do you go too”

Izuku looks at the boy he was just about taller than him and he was smiling at him he was one of the first people to ever smile at him

“Aldera … wh-what about you”

“Yarvin its just like in that direction” he poins of in the distance and chuckles 

“Wait yarvin?” he pulls out the lost homework and shows it to the boy “would you know wh-whos is this”

“No way …you found? yeah its mine” he takes the homework “you're a lifesaver” he pulls him into a hug but lets him go quickly “sorry i shouldnt of done that without asking” 

Izuku smiles at him “its no problem just happy that i was able to get it back to you”

The taller boy extends his hand “kaminari denki kaminari its nice to meet you” 

Izuku looks at the boy and finally takes him in hes taller but not that much maybe like 2 or 3 centimeters taller. his smile was wide like really wide and contagious he couldnt help but smile back when he looks at him. his hair is almost as bright as the boys personality but it was messy like he just couldnt pay attention to style it each morning and he has a black streak in the shape of a lightning bolt izuku cant help to wonder if it natural or if he only styles that part every morning.

He takes his hand  “midoriya izuku its nice to meet you too” 

They both smile at each other as there silence gets cut by kaminaris phone 

“Sorry i have to take this”

“N-no problem i need to get going too” 

Kaminari quickly scribbles something down on a corner of his lost homework then he rips it off and hands it too midoriya 

“My number you seem like a good person well” he lift his homework up “you are a good person so text me we can hang out sometime” 

Izuku smiles back at him “that,,, sounds like fun ill see you later i guess then” he puts the piece of paper into his pocket 

“Yeah bye midoriya” he walks away and pick up the phone call 

‘He was nice’ izuku think to himself as he feels a slight vibration coming from his log seing that he had completed a quest 

‘Return the homework.

Hopefully upping his luck enough would get him out of altercations faster or get him better items in the random rolls and if luck doesnt help strength definitely will.

He looks around to try to get his surroundings he ran really far to get away from bakugou lucky he recognized a bridge and started to walk towards it if he was right this bridge means he was at least 30 maybe 35 minutes from home at least he knew his way home from here he began to head towards the bridge 

As he walked under the bridge he felt a cold gust of wind after a loud bang as something metallic hit the roof of the bridge 

“Youll make a perfect meat suit” a wet almostly sickly sounding voice says to him as a green tendril grabs him by his wrist and pulls him in as another tendril invades his mouth he feels violated even thought the villain just wanted to wear his body he still felt violated.

He felt the log going wild in his bag. he wanted to run he tried to run but couldnt he was just forced to stay as this thing killed him he got his second chance he got lucky and now hes going to die like this he felt his eyes get heavy again just like the first time… 

Then a large gust of wind flings the slime quirk users away 

‘Its its all might’ he thinks to himself seeing the towering man except hes not wearing his costume hes just wearing a tee shirt and camo pants it must of been an urgent villain attack 

“You alright boy” the man shouts down too him and beams down a smile at him 

“Ye-yeah all might sir” he looks up at his trademarked smile after seing it somany time before on tv or the internet

“Now …” he rushes around and collects the villain into a coke bottle “ill be off” he readys to jump 

“Wait all might can i ask you something first?” he asks quickly getting a twinge of anxiety and cringe rage through him as he asks the question

“Sure boy but only one” he points at him awaiting the question his smile still beaming 

“Ca-can somebody whos quirkless still be a hero”he asked he knew he wasnt quirkless any more but it could still help hearing the symbol of peace saying he could be a hero even without a quirk he can hear it now all mights booming voice ‘of course you can boy’

All mights smile fades “honestly no i dont think you could be a hero” the words cut through izuku like a knife “no offence kid… its just a hero's job is to take beating every day youd just be a liability on a battlefield… its good to dream but keep them obtainable yeah think like police officer they still help people… okay kid?”

“Ye-yeah okay” he walks away his eyes welling with tears again as he heads towards his home pulling out his log and flicks to the quest pages

‘No exp’ he thinks ‘well i guess i didnt actually defeat the villain’ he flips through the other pages it had a few names written with moral justice stats underneath it. It had a few names of kids from his school but also some others 

‘Kaminari denki 

95% hero 5% vigilante 0% villain

He smiled to him self ‘at lest me and all might are both 100% heroes’ he thinks as he flips to his own moral page 

Midoriya izuku 

80% hero 20% vigilante 0% villain

Izuku stears at the page ‘how is this possible… maybe when all might told him that he took it to to heart deep down he knew all might was right even if he got into UA, legally hes quirkless and you cant just gain a quirk out of the blue… and i guess being a vigilante will be okay not all vigilantes are bad some are good and if he really wants to be  in UA just being level 20 wont cut it even if hes in general studies and its not like a vigilante has never became a hero after a great act of heroism’ he flicks back to the quest log and runs his finger over the vigilante quest ‘hell he doesnt even know if theyll let him in to the hero course if hes quirk less if all might think the way that he does that means most heroes will’ he presses the quest and he sees a few thinga change on his quests and extra info

‘Six new quests and a new job title and all these items’ he flips to the inventory page and presses on the ring it summoning onto his finger instantly it was glowing a faint blue with characters carved into it it looked cool, almost discrete. He then pressed on the slime ring it was summoning onto the other hand it was unlike the other one it was a bright green with swirls of blue and purple it was still cool but less discret than the other one. He then presses on the plort crystal its a diamond shape with soft edges it had the colour of honey and smelt of it too he pressed it back on to the page and saw it get put back into his inventory. His finger hovered over the junimo charm as he pressed it, it was a purple creature with a leaf on its head and it looked cute. He spun around his bag and clipped it on hopefully the more items he has equipped the stronger he'll get. He pressed on the final item the slimeball. Contrary to its name it want circular but more cubey. He expected it to stick to his hand but it didnt when it went over the to his sleeves though it made them sticky but with one swipe of his thumb it vanished and left no residue he then pressed it back against the page it entered his inventory instantly. 

Izuku was ready to prove all might wrong no matter what even if hes a vigilante

Chapter Text

Izuku had made it home and thats when he was able to fully take it in not only did the number 1 hero say he should give up on his dreams but his childhood best friend told him to kill himself and he came to the realisation that even with this quirk he probably wouldn't be able to join the hero course since legally he was still quirkless 

He dug his hands through his pockets so that he could wash his clothes without destroying anything. He pulls out a piece of paper with a hastily written number on it ‘oh yeah with everything that went on i forgot about kaminari’ 

He went to his room and grabbed his phone he didnt take it out anymore since he couldnt afford to break it anymore than it already was 

He types in his number and messages him 

‘Hey this is midoriya the one who gave you your homework back’

He puts his phone down not expecting to hear from him until tomorrow but just as he set down his phone it vibrated on the desk 

‘Yeah ive been waiting to hear from you kinda worried i gave you the wrong number lol’

Izuku chuckles at the response 

‘Yeah sorry about the wait it took me awhile to get home’

‘Also if you dont mind me asking why did you give me your number’

Izuku asks hoping not to offend but also hoping to get the truth

‘Well you found my lost homework and kept it on you then when you heard i was from yarvin even though you were upset you instantly asked if i knew whos homework it was so i figured when you meet someone who's kind enough to go out their way to return a strangers homework not becoming friends would be a missed opportunity’

Izuku begins to smile at the message it the first time in a while someones been nice to him

‘Thanks but your overselling me i just did what anyone would’

‘If thats what you want to tell yourself dude’

‘Also whats your quirk dude’

‘Sorry if thats too personal i just dont think sometimes’

He starts to type ‘no its fine actually im quirkle’ then he erases the message. He realised that now he could tell new people he had a quirk

‘I'm basically like a video game character i have stats and can upgrade them as i level up and then gain skills’

‘What about you whats your quirk’

Izuku puts his phone down for a minute and looks around for the sewing machine that he knows is somewhere around here it takes him a good 5 minutes before he finds it and he picks back up his phone 

‘Its just a basic electricity quirk but if i use it too much it kinda fries my brain’ 

‘So your quirk treats your brain as a computer doing too much overloads it. Have you tried testing how far you can go before frying?’

‘Sorry i'm really into quirk analysis’

He sets up the sewing machine and looks through his wardrobe and pulls out an old padded suit along with a few scraps of other padded clothes he had bought a few years ago to add padding in between him and Bakugou's explosions. The large holes in the suit made it obvious that it didnt work. He hopes he can salvage some of the suit then all he really needs is the chest, some of the arms and legs then he can buy gloves and afterwards all he would need is to put on a hoodie and sweatpants to cover the gear. He looks back at his phone to see if Kaminari has replied yet he still hadn't.  

He leaned over the sewing machine and plugged in the foot pedal hed used it a few times so he knew he basics like to put the suit inside out and how to do the stitches but other than that hes going in blind after a few minutes and a lot of cutting and switching scraps the first hole had been patched ‘only 4 more’ he thought to himself he had dealt with the biggest frist hoping that if it took the bulk of the work hed start to understand how to sew better before he had to work on the smaller more intricate holes where he would have to go slower on compared to the big one. He started again on the next hole pressing his foot down slightly it took him 30 or 40 minutes to actually complete the whole suit for it to be hole free

He picked up his phone again to see if he had a message yet but still nothing

‘I hope i didnt freak him out with the quirk analysis’ he shakes his head ‘i cant be thinking that negatively he probably just fell asleep or had to do his homework. He ran his fingers over the new stitches 'tomorrow ill go out and make my debut tomorrow night  in the morning ill go shopping for some gloves just incase hell it would be just his luck to get caught by leaving a fingerprint and they somehow have his on file already or if they get it then he gets arrested for a smaller crime and run his fingerprints he’ll get charged even harder. But once he has gloves he'll be able to start his vigilante career. He pulls out his log and reads over the quest ‘a name… what would be a good name’ he thinks to himself hoping an epiphany will come out of nowhere ‘maybe’ he cocks his head in the mirror in his room as he starts to put the suit on pulling the hoodie over his head and looking at the finished result. It was still rough, the stitches messy and the padding lumpy in places due to the extra fabric. His face was still pretty exposed but he figures as long as he only goes out at night he should be okay. He looks at himself and shakes his head ‘nope still have no clue for a name’ he takes of his suit not wanting to dirty it before his big debut afterwards he decides to sleep on it the name should come to him before tomorrow 

He slept like a baby probably from the new found freedom of having a quirk and now being a vigilante  he checked his watch. It was 8 the closest clothing store that accepted cash was a 30 minute walk away. A shower and getting his clothes would only take 15 minutes so he could be there by 8:45 which would give him the whole day to think of a name. He gets out of bed and goes and gets a shower and gets his clothes ready. He gets ready to leave and makes sure he got everything money, check. His phone, still broken. Then he remembers about kaminari he checks on his phone just in case he has a message from him

‘Hey man sorry about that i passed out, but no i actually haven't tried that before maybe we can meet up sometime and train together or if you want to do something else just lmk’

‘Yeah ill love too sometime but my quirk doesnt exactly level on training but id still love to help you out’ 

He grabs his phone and shoves it in his pocket ‘i guess ill have to start carrying this around if i want to be a vigilante otherwise i wouldnt be able to have a police scanner’ he thinks as he scrolls through the app store downloading the highest rated one that was there afterwards he headed out in the direction of the the store 

Once he got to the store he entered and went straight to looking for gloves. There was all the types of glove except one that popped out to him or one that he would need just rows and rows of woolen gloves all of them the exact same except one pair, one pair that had padded knuckles they wear perfect he grabbed them and took them to the counter 

“Ju-just  these please” 

He places the gloves on the counter and hands over the money that was on the tag to the exact change and leaves he was one step closer to being a vigilante no one step closer to being a hero 

The walk home felt short hell the walk there felt short but also felt long like it was hours long but also seconds short he knew it was the nerves but he wasnt worried he knew that deep down he was as ready as ever and before he knew it he was back home sitting in his room just thinking of names yet no matter what he thought of none of them stood out to him none of them popped to him he decides to play a game on his phone to kill the time hopeing that something will come to him he starts to progress in the game before all of his progress reverts to 0 “oh this stupid glitch i hate this game” ‘glitch’ he thinks he smiles to himself ‘yeah thats it glitch’ he thinks to himself now ready for the night ahead  but that was still hours away even so he still had everything on his bed all folded up and ready to wear all he had to do now was wait.

As the sun began to set and the moon rose he put the suit on and left the house through the window his mum was gone but if his neighbours saw him and brought it up to her he would be in so much trouble so it seemed like the safe option. He pull his log out of the hoodie pocket reading over his skills as he walked around waiting 

Escapist (When navigating alleys, rooftops, or abandoned areas, stealth gains +2. 15% chance of not triggering ambient quests)Can be upgraded

‘So maybe it would be smart to traverse the roofs but how to get up’ then it clicked in his head. He flicked to  the inventory page and pressed on the slimeball and then rubbed it into his gloves and put it back into the log. He ran down the nearest alley and pressed his hands on to the wall and pulled one off and placed it above his head then he followed with the other at that point he looked down and saw it… he was off the ground only attached by his hands. He shook his head and continued upwards just in case the slime had a time limit. And then he was there on the roof of the building ‘good job i picked this building’ he thought to himself seeing all of the roofs where connected he began to walk over them just waiting to hear someone ask for help or see something happen. He had been walking around for 30 minutes not hearing a single noise not even one from the police scanner app

“N-no please i j-just want to go home”

He runs over to where he heard the noise and sees a drunk man cornering a young girl

‘Okay if the slime let me go up it should let me go down’ he thinks to himself as he climbs down the side of the wall and sneaks up behind the guy and punches him in the back of the head hoping his strength was high enough to win the fight the man turns after the punch and chuckles at the site of izuku

“Anit it past your bedtime kid”

He dosent say anything back just punching the man in the chest this time but all it does is make him chuckle as he throws a punch of his own hitting izuku in the face. The walm taste of blood filling his mouth he stands back up ready to fight him 

“Ju-just leave her alone” 

He runs up to the man but before he can make contact a thick white scarf surrounds him and the other guy

“Your punches were sloppy kid you need to put your entire body behind them not just your arm” 

A monotone voice calls out from behind them the first thing izuku can make out are bright red eyes afterwards he can see the person who captured him he had large eyebags and messy hair 'eraserhead’ he thinks to himself knowing about the lesser known hero 

“What your doing is illegal you know” 

He says as he drops his scarf of izuku 

“A-are you going to arrest me eraserhead sir”

Izuku asks only thinking about how bad of a vigilante he was he couldnt even go his first night without being caught

“You know who I am?” 

He askes with a slight smirk and watches the kid as he nods 

“No i'm not going to arrest you him on the other hand i'm going to arrest… but ill need a name for the report… so who are you kid”

He asked his eyes still focused on the criminal and still the same bright red colour

“Glitch im glitch”

“Well nice to meet you glitch now…”

He digs through his pockets and pulls out a small card

“If you ever get in over your head call this number or text me a location pin… oh and if your going to keep doing this use a weapon somthing blunt nothing that would do serious harm just to knock them out” 

He sees the hero pull out his phone and call someone 

“Tsukauchi looks like we got a new vigilante just found a guy knocked out and a girl claimed he was trying to hurt her and a guy knocked him out calling himself glitch” 

Izuku smiles to himself hearing that eraserhead gave him the credit and he turns to the girl 

“Are you alright” 

“Ye-yeah you two got he-here just in time” 

He smiles at her and helps her up off the ground and out of the alleyway 

“You stay safe now, yeah?”

“Yeah sure glitch” 

She smiles back at him he walks away feeling his log vibrate softly in his pocket he climbs back up the wall and walks a bit further and sits down his legs hanging of the edge as he flips to the quest section of the log

He smiles to himself his first patrol as a vigilante was complete he closes ovet the log deciding to look through his items once he's home he stands up and gets ready to go home

*thud* 

He turns around to see a man with large red wings walk towards him 

“Hey kid you wanna step away from the ledge”

Izuku looks around and points to himself 

“Me?”

“Yeah kid i get it life can be hard sometimes but just step away from the ledge”

“Im not trying to kill myself i was just relaxing up here”

“Oh really sorry kid this is my first time patrolling here at night but i do need you to get away from the ledge though”

Izuku walks away from the ledge“Better?”

“yep …” He extends his hand “Im -”

Izuku cuts him off “hawks … i know” he shakes his hand

“Now i gotta go kid dont go near that ledge dont do drugs” then he takes off soaring through the sky 

‘Hes a …interesting hero’ izuku thinks to himself as he begins making his way home keeping his ears on alert for any one shouting for help. By the time hes home he hadnt ran into a single other crime so he climbed back through his window and took off his suit. It was an eventful day to say the least and the weekend wasnt even over yet. Tomorrow hell get a weapon like eraserhead said or maybe he could use the grappling hook. He pulls out eraserheads card and writes his number into his phone 

‘Hey eraserhead this is glitch just thought it would be helpful if you had this number saved y’know just in case’

Izuku sees as the message get marked as read then he starts typing 

‘I regret this already i'm not running your phone number just in case you were stupid enough to use your actual phone’

Izuku looks down at his cracked screen not even realising that he should of been worried about that 

‘Thanks for that i mean its not like i was stupid enough to do than’

‘Oh and that weapon idea would a grappling hook work?’

‘Yeah if the hook and line is detachable it could be used for stealth takedowns now stop bothering me im still on patrol’

Izuku just sends back a thumbs up emoji hell have to try if new grappling hook was like the one eraser explained. He lies down in bed and rubs his eyes ready for the night ahead of him 

Chapter Text

Izuku woke up after the long night, his cheek still sore yet he already had a plan for the day he wanted to check his new items. And then train with his new items and he cant wait to test them out. He feels his phone buzz from his side and he pulls it out and checks it he has two messages one from kaminari and another from eraserhead and he decided to read kaminaris frist 

‘Hey man i usually train on sundays just wondering if youd want to join’

‘Yeah id love to join i was actually thinking of training today’

Then he read erasers text 

‘Hey kid you alive’

‘Yeah i wont die that easily lol’

He gets a response from kaminari first just assuming that erasers asleep 

‘Oh cool ill send you a pin later so we can meet up cool?’

‘Yeah cool cant wait’

He sets down his phone and picks up his log flipping to the inventory page and pressing on the grappling hook deciding to have a look at it. It was a flat black colour with three prongs on the end he pulls on the grapple part of the gun and pulls the prongs out another one appearing in the end of the gun instantly ‘wait surely i can get a lot of money from this’ he sets down the prongs but sees it turn blue and pixelate then disappear his log lights up with an explanation

‘Items like the grapple gun will be able to fire and take down multiple enemies but once they are cut down they no longer exists and disappear’

Izuku looks at the notification ‘i guess that makes sense’ 

He presses the feather falling book in his inventory and sees the leather bound book with purple swirls appearing and disappearing all over the book and presses the book up against his shoes seeing as the faint purple spirals transfer to the shoes and slowly disappear he also decides against summoning the web grenade in his room

Hell just test it out when training with kaminari 

he thinks puting down his log and grabbing some clothes he can trains in and gets ready to leave just so that he can leave when kaminari sends him a location pin. And after an hour or two he gets the message from kaminari with the pin attached 

‘Hey man im ready to meet up if you are’

Yeah ill be there in like 10 mins’

He quickly messages back and leaves his house and heads in the direction of other boy and meets up with him after the 10 minute walk. Kaminari notices him and he yelled to him 

“Hey midoriya” He walks up to him “How have you been” The blond askes 

“Ive been alright, you?” izuku smiles at him kaminari was a good change of pace for him he was so much different than what its like at school 

“Ive been good too, just excited about training with someone today… i know of a good abandoned building for training if you want to go”

Izuku nods “sure lead the way” he follows behind the other boy for a few minutes just idly talking about school and homework 

“welcome …” his hands gesture to the building. It was half gone probably from a villain attack “it got destroyed in a fight with endeavour and some random villain 

“Yeah this place if perfect maybe i could try out my grappling hook” izuku says just thinking out loud

“Wait, you have a grappling hook thats epic, you know how to use it?” he looks at the green haired boy smiling with excitement  

Izuku looks at him not realising that he said it out loud “umm well not exactly my it cant be that hard right?” 

“Yeah and if your hurt yourself i'm here to help” he smiles at izuku

Izuku nods and pulls out his log pressing on the grappling hook and aimed at an exposed beam “if you say so” he pulls the trigger seeing as the prongs wrap abound the beem and as the moter in the hook pulls him to the beam and lands on it softly the grappling hook doing most of the work “IT WORKED” he shouted down 

“THAT WAS SO COOL… HOW ARE YOU GETTING DOWN THOUGH” the blond shouts back up to him 

Izuku smirks “WATCH THIS” he takes a step off of the beam and lands on his feet completely unharmed 

Kaminari runs up to him “are you ok that was a long drop shouldnt your legs be broken”

Izuku chuckles “nope i'm fine i got a reward from a quest i competed where i no longer take fall damage” 

Kaminari smiles and chuckles “that so cool so you can fall any height”

“Yeah i mean i think that was my first time testing it” izuku says confidently 

“Wait so you hadn't tested if i works” the blond asks shocked 

“Yeah why?” he asked back

“What if it didn't work” he asked like it was an obvious question

“Why wouldnt they work i trust my quirk” he says point blankly 

“Fair enough dude… now wanna get back to training” 

“All ways”

The two boy begin destroying leftover mannequins, kaminari with large zaps of lightning and izuku was lobingweb grenades watching as the webs incased the mannequins or by using his grapple gun to stealth takedown some others just practising for the future just without kaminari realising what he was training for. They both trained for around an hour before they decided to call it a day and both head home after planing to do this again the next sunday 

As izuku was walking home his phone buzzed in his pocket again. Once he pulled it out i saw that it was from eraserhead 

‘Hey kid i want to meet up with you before your ptrole to talk about some things meet me in the alleyway from yesterday’

Izuku reads the messages and starts to quicken his pase home and message eraser back 

‘Be there in a minute’

Once hes home he quickly changed into his suit and headed back out too the alleyway where he met eraserhead when he gets there he notices the man standing against the wall 

“Hey eraserhead what did you need to talk about” 

“There was a report of a two kids sneaking into an abandoned building one of them having a similar build to you”

“Is that it just someone with a similar built to me” izuku said trying to keep calm and not show off that it was him

“They were also training with a grappling hook and you were messaging me about using a grappling hook so i put two and two together” the older man looks at him with an annoyed face

“Okay so what if it was me i was just training”

“The other kid he a vigilante as well or does he know about what you do in your free time”

“No he isnt and doesnt… wait so does this mean you know my name”

“Good keep it that way dont bring others into this i can be hard for people to know there friends committing crimes daily and no i dont know your name i was watching from afar after i heard the call”

“Oh okay but was this the whole reason you wanted to meet it seems kinda small” izuku asks while fidgeting around

“No i asked to meet because vigilantes can do things i cant like check out what seems to be completely legitimate businesses but are known fronts…” he hands him a scrap of paper with an address written on it “this place is a trigger distributor only a small one nothing you cant handle by yourself”

Izuku nods “okay i get what your saying but trigger it rings a bell but i cant exactly remember”

“Its good that you dont know it means most kids your age wont but what trigger is, is a drug that boosts your quirk but lowers your resolve it mak-” he gets cut off by izuku

“Oh yeah the pop up villains i remember hearing about it in the news”

Eraser smirks a little at the kids slight knowledge “yeah but any time a warrants been served on this address its completely clean but every time after it we get claims of trigger dealing there so we assure me they have someone in the police but if a vigilante take them out no need for a warrant you get what i'm saying”

“Yeah i go there take out the bad guy if their there call you, you arrest them and the news read new vigilante glitch shuts down trigger distributor sounds good”

“Exactly kid” the older man looks happy but annoyed at the same time at izuku

“Cool ill scope it out tonight” he grabs the piece of paper and shoves it into his pocket “see you later eraser” he shouts as he runs off in the direction of the address it wasnt too far from him actually he could get there in a few minutes maybe then hed have his first big but as a hero

Chapter Text

It took him less than 30 minutes to get to the warehouse. He decided to watch from a building next door and began to note down everything that was happening even if it was as small as a smoke break if he was right there was at least 8 people working there while he was watching the warehouse he watched closely at the people on smoke breaks they all seem to be lighting their cigarette with there quirk ‘fire quirks maybe if i get in there somehow make it colder theyll be weaker’ he looks at the roof of the other building looking for a place that he can grapple to. Luckily he saw a railing going around the roof of the building that he could grapple too. He readyed him self aimed the gun and fired his body flinging over to the opposite roof the roof was bear not even having an entrance to the building below

He walked around the roof internally cursing himself out for being an idiot when he foot hit something metallic he looked down and saw a vent cover and felt his log vibrate slightly he pulled the log out and say what the vibration was about 

‘Ability unlocked

Vent crawler 

Skills needed:small stature’

‘Well thats handy’ he thinks to himself as he pulled on the vent cover attempting to pull it off he pulled the hardest he could in and fell backwards as he pulled the cover off thanking the fact that no one could see that happen as he placed the vent cover down and climbed into the vent. 

It was dirty, very dirty and full of dust ‘wow movies really miss represent vents’ he thinks to himself trying to either hold his coughs down or do them quietly as he crawled through them. He was covered in dust his whole suit looks like hes been inside of a hoover he went farther into the vents looking out of them every now and then looking for the room where the everyone was gathered as much as he hoped that eraser was wrong and that this place was completely clean well except the vents he also deep down hoped it wasnt clean just so that he didnt have to leave through the vents  ‘speak of the devil’ he thinks as he sees the main warehouse area with guards crawling about 

‘Wait how am i getting out of this silently’ he thinks to him self ‘if i push it it will hit the floor with a loud bang the hole is too small to pull it into the vent’ he weighed the options in his head ‘unless i could rotate it at an angle then pull it in’ he thinks as he begins pushing on the vent cover breaking it off wincing slightly when the screws hit the floor taking a moment before continuing to move just to be certain no one noticed afterwards he pulled the vent cover up at an angle to be able to fit the cover in afterwards he made sure that his gloves wear still had the slimeball residue on them.

He checked the ground where he would land making sure it was clear before dropping down. After seeing that the coast was clear he took a leap down and began to climb the wall next to him ‘i probably could off just climbed out of the vent like this’ he thinks realising that he chose to go the hard way about this  he begins to crawl over to a few people how had began talking hoping to over here something 

“What are we even protecting” one guy asked izuku takes a mental note with the appearance of the man he was bald and slightly over weight with a small flame coming from the middle of his head izuku chuckled imaging the man as a candle 

“Trigger. You know this hothead” izuku chuckled again at the hothead nickname and at how much of idiots these guys were openly admitting that they were smuggling drugs 

The candle man opens his mouth ready to say something but gets cut off buy another man “will you two idiots stop talking and get to guarding” the man said crossing his arms izuku noticed his hands where black and chard they looked like they were made of magma and almost as if they were radiating with an orange hue he assumed that the man had a lava quirk or something until he heard the distinctive pops of explosions pop he had heard all his life the man had an explosion quirk whit the way his hands look izuku assumes the quirk changed the part of him what he exploded. He was tall as well, almost like all might height and he had a similar build. He was already dreading having to take that guy out the other guys looked at least manageably. He crawls up to the beams in the roof so he can traverse easier. 

He looked around for one of the guards who was alone. The one that he found was skinny and short but every now and again hed see the man's skin turn into what looked like fur. He waited till the man walked under one of the beams. He made sure he had the grapple gun ready and shot it at the man. The rope made its way down and wrapped around the man before getting pulled back up with the motor, his head hitting the steel beam which izuku was sitting on. Izku winces seeing the coalition leaning down he pressed his fingers against his neck praying that there was still a pulse he felt the relief wash over him as he felt the slight pumping of blood.

‘That was easier than expected’ he thinks mentally countering all the remaining people left ‘1 down 7 more to go’ he begins to go around the rest of the room slowly taking out all of the guards one by one. Till there were two left he looked down at the one bellow him ‘sorry hothead’ he shot the line and pulled him up and knocked him out with the steal beam’ he makes his way over to the last guy the same guy who told hothead off he getts above him and shoots down the gun 

‘well th-’ he gets cut off as his body begins to fall he figures that he just slipped but while falling he sees the the same guy who he shot at with the line in his hand ‘i spoke too soon’ 

“I thought my guys were just ignoring me. I guess I was wrong” he throws the line from the hook on the ground "I don't recognise the suit and you look too young to be a hero… vigilante?” izuku feels a sense of worry begin to build he didn't plan on fighting someone today especially not the boss of a trigger warehouse “y-yeah i am and what of it” the man bigins to smile “how about this kid ill give you a cut and you come work for me yout cleary capable i mean you took out all my guys i wont even tell the big boss about this and youll be my number 2 we could be nampal and…” the man offers. “Glitch and no i think ill be fine on my own” the smile on the mans face fades and turns into a frown “your funeral kid” he punches to his side letting of an explosion to open a box a bunch of hero action figures begin to roll out and napalm leans down and picks one up snapping off his head “if you think braking a toy if going to scare me your wrong” he sees as napalm smirks and pulls out a syringe from the toy ‘that must be the trigger’ napalm takes on last look at him and injects himself with the syringe 

‘This wont be good’ izuku thinks to himself as he sees as napalms body begins to change the magma looking hand begin to spread covering the rest of his body until he was completely covered izuku begins racking his mind about everything he knows about trigger ‘american trigger can last 1 to 2 hours where as trigger crated in japan is 3 to 5 at best so i just need to hope its japanese trigger’ he thinks already dodging the explosions and punches from napalm “listen im sure you dont want to do this just give up and everything will be okay” ‘its only 3% for understanding to pop but its still worth a shot’ “but then i wont get to kill you” napalm roars this with a look of pure evil on his face ‘guess it didnt work’ izuku keeps running around trying to think of a way to defeat his when a bright red metal object catches his eye ‘a fire extinguisher that should work’ he runs over and picks it up and throws it at napalm “you should cool off” izuku cringes at his quip. Izuku notices that napalm is moving slower now still fast but slower izuku runs around more and keeps flinging extinguishers at him each one slowing him down just enough for izuku to think of a plan “hey napalm come get me” he shouts watching as napalm starts to charge straight at him izuku jumped out the way just before getting hit making napalm run straight into a large electrical box it shocking and electrocuting him as he fall to the ground  “was it really that shocking that i won” izuku shakes his head “umm… i guess you glitched out… you got an idea” he relises that he hadnt checked if napalm was still alive and ran over to him and checked his pulse “thank god now” he pulls out his phone and calls eraser “you good kid you find anything out about that place” “yeah im sill here i took everyone out definitely trigger” ill be right over kid” 

After eraser ends the call izuku starts to get all of the others he took out on the ground and all next to each other "glitch?" ‘that must be eraser “over here” the man walks over “you did good here almost got everyone” izuku face turns to confusion “what no there was 8 people and 8 guys here”  eraser chuckles “and the 2 outside but by the look of in here you didnt do it all silently” he looks around to the scorch marks on the walls and the melted extinguishers” izuku smiles “well yeah the one over there…” he motions to napalm “took some trigger so i had to improvise” eraser patz him on the shoulder “still you did good kid… now you should get out of here” izuku looks down and gets ready to leave “whos gonna get the credit” eraser smiles and looks towards him “you kid ill just say a civilian told me about a suspicious person leaving” izuku smiles back “thanks eraser” he calls out as he leaves and begins on his way home getting there and falling asleep for the night deciding hell just check his log tomorrow 

He woke up the next day too his phone vibrating he decided to look and see what was happening he had 3 notifications 2 of them messages and one from a news agency he opens the messages tapping on the one from kaminari 

‘Hey man you saw the news’

‘No not yet why’ 

He sends off the message and opens erasers 

‘Kid look at the news’

‘You the second person to mention the news to me today’ 

He closes his messaging app and opens the news app 

‘ Vigilante takes down trigger warehouse ’

Izuku smiles at his first debut, scrolling through the article he notices a video from the security cameras in the building he taps on the video watching himself throw the extinguishers and watches as he says his quips and cringes once again. He closes his phone and grabs his log deciding to flip to the quests
