Hey, so this is my first story and I'm frankly not the best at grammer or anything so please forgive me. I've been really interested in the villain Deku story idea so this is my take on it, enjoy!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Izuku looked over at the crowd. He had done his best, he tried to save kacchan-but no one cared.

He had rushed in to do what all the heroes failed to. He tried to take down the sludge monster knowing full well that he was quirkless. He knew he couldn't win but he did more than the pros had! He got lectured and scolded for his actions, while his childhood friend got praised for staying alive while the heroes did nothing.

Sorry kid, you should just give it up

Was that true? Should he really just give up? Being a hero has always been his dream, finding out he was quirkless was one thing, but the words All Might said to him- the words his hero had said, echoed in his mind.

He was right wasn't he? He really could never be a hero. He felt tears well in his eyes as he looked over the swarm of people standing in front of him. All Might was surrounded by paparazzi as he told the story of how he saved kacchan. Kacchan was surrounded by heros that commended him for his incredible quirk.

And They weren't wrong his quirk was amazing….

Which is why Izuku could never be a hero.

He didn't have a quirk

He was useless.

Why don't you throw yourself off a building and hope to be born with one in your next life, stupid Deku!

Izuku smiled at the ground as tear tears began to fall, maybe that was his only option.

Izuku turned away from the fawning crowds and started walking home. The words of his 'hero' and old friend still rattling around in his mind. He walked silently through the door of his home.

"Izuku!" his mother shouted greeting him. "I saw the news! How could you just run into a fight like that!? You know you couldn't beat him!" she ran towards him and pulled him into a tight hug, squeezing him with all her power.

"...sorry mom" mom he responded dejectedly. "Kacchan was in trouble, I was just trying to help…" he wrapped his arms around her loosely, returning her hug but not by much.

She pulled back from the embrace "well you're okay and that's all that matters" she said wiping the tears from her eyes. "now come on dinner is almost ready" she grabbed his wrist and lead him into the kitchen and sat him at the table. She served him a large helping of the curry before sitting down to enjoy her own.

She ate happily until she saw the look on Izuku's face. He had hardly touched his food. "what's what's wrong honey?" she questioned, concern lacing her words.

"...I'm just thinking about everything that happened today….it's a lot to take in" he said tears welling in his eyes. Inko nodded as she looked at her son. He was probably upset, not only because he had been in danger, but his childhood friend had almost been killed.

"why don't you go try and get some sleep?" sleep she suggested, a sympathetic smile graced her lips.

"..."

"Izuku?"

"I actually think I wanna go for a walk"

Inko was surprised by the statement "isn't it kinda late for that ? You have class tomorrow"

"I won't be out to late, I just want to clear my head" he spoke to her but his eyes never left the plate of food he was poking at. It was as if he couldn't meet her gaze.

Inko sighed reluctantly 'he she has had a long day maybe a walk would help lighten his spirits' she pondered.

"okay but don't be out too late! " she flashed him a gracious smile. He had a long day she wanted him to stay home but this would be good for him.

"thanks mom" he smiled back at her, got up from the table and moved his plate to the sink with the rest of the dishes. He then walked over to his mother, who had just begun clearing the table, and wrapped his arms around her.

"love you mom" he said burying his head into her shoulder.

"I love you too Izuku" she smiled brightly as she returned the hug.

This time he hugged her like a vice, he buried his head deeper into her shoulder to attempt to keep tears from falling.

"okay, I'm leaving now!" he said with fanned optimism as he pulled out back from the hug. He headed to the door and shouted one last "love you! " over his shoulder as he put on his shoes and stepped out the door.

"love you too!" she chimed as the door closed behind him.

Izuku stood on the porch and looked down at his shoes as tears began to flood his eyes.

Quirkless loser!

Sorry kid, I honestly don't think you can become a hero without a quirk.

You're worse than a reject!

You should just give up.

You should know you couldn't beat him!

I'm sorry Izuku!

All the voices of doubt over the years, all the voices he ignored and just pretended not to hear- they all came flooding back. But the voice that was the most clear was that of his old friend kacchan and the advice he had given him this morning:

Maybe if you jump head first off a building you can be born with a quirk in your next life!

He started to cry as his feet moved on their own and took him away from his childhood home. He looked back at the house one last time, took a deep breath, and walked away.

It had taken toshinori far longer to get away from that crowd than he would have liked. He wanted to find that boy and talk to him, but he had already been on borrowed time and by the time he lost the paparazzi, the boy was long gone. Midoriya had been his name right? And the boy that had been captured had been named Bakugou? They seemed to know each other. Perhaps he could figure out where he lived from bakugou? He made a phone call to a police friend of his and got Bakugou's address.

He walked to the house and checked on the boy claiming to be a police officer investing his incident today. The boy was less than happy to see him stating "I don't need no damn babysitter!" and slamming the door on him. Bakugou's mother was more than happy to help though and tell him her son seemed fine, as well as where young Midoriya lived.

He made it to the young man's house late in the evening. he felt bad knocking on the door but he needed to see the boy. As he knocked he was greeted with a light and lively "just just one minute!" from the other side of the door.

When it finally did open a women had answered the door and she was most certainly midoriya's mother. He was her spitting image.

"Can I help you sir?"

"ah yes. I'm so sorry to bother you so late ma'am but I was hoping to talk to your son."

"you want to talk to Izuku? " she asked with a slight bit of concern.

"yes ma'am, I'm with the police I just wanted to check up on him after the events of this afternoon"

"oh I'm sorry he just stepped out for a bit, would you like to come in? He shouldn't be out to long "

"thank you" he bowed slightly and walked into the small house. She lead him into the dining room and gave him a seat at the table. She made them both tea and sat at the opposite side of the table.

"thank you" he said giving the woman a smile.

"oh it's no trouble at all! Thank you for coming on check on my son! Shouldn't you be checking on Bakugou though? He was the one that was captured by that villian!"

"ahh yes, I just came from their actually, he's doing fine"

"oh thank goodness!" Inko said with a heavy sigh of relief " I'm sure Izuku will be happy to hear that! He seemed really distraught when he came home today" her words trailed off.

"if you don't mind " toshnoir spoke interrupting her thoughts "what what exactly is the relationship between the boys?"

Inko chuckled a little "well since childhood they have been friends for a long time, and I think they still are"

"you think?" toshinori questioned.

"ah yes well you see, after it became public knowledge that Izuku was quirkless their friendship...changed" she paused for a minute and simply observed her tea cup before taking a deep breath and continuing. "Izuku still hung around with him but they did really get along as well as they used to. After a few months Bakugou stopped hanging out with him outside of any sort of school situation."

"I see. " toshi stated flatly "what about his other friends? How did they react?"

Inko dragged her finger around the outside rim of her cup once again getting lost in the cup. "Well… he didn't really have any other friends. He was always such a bright and happy kid even despite that though! Even after he found out about being quirkless he still insisted he was going to be a hero." she chuckled a bit and a warm but solemn smile played along her lips.

"I see…." he wasn't sure what to say. Even after everything he still wanted to be a hero. Toshi felt his heart beat hard in his chest. A heavy and awkward silence hung in the air for a bit but toshi finally said something again.

"well thank you very much for the tea but it's getting late and I feel I should be going"

" oh! Are you sure? He should be home any minute! Here I can call him for you! " she grabbed her purse from the chair next to her and began to rummage through it.

Toshi chuckled "that's alright mrs. Midoriya just have him give me a call when he gets home would you? Here's my card" he handed her his personal businesses card that had his private cell number on it. "I would like to talk to him as soon As possible"

"of course! " she chimed " I promise he's usually not out this late l! I think he just needed some time to clear his head after the day he's had."

Toshi gave her a bright smile "not to worry ma'am, just have him call me and I'll be seeing you tomorrow"

"of course! Have a wonderful night!"

The man left and Inko was perplexed. It was very nice that he stopped in to check on him but Izuku was never out this late. What was he up to? She decided to call him anyways. She dialed the number and the phone began to ring

And ring

-_-_'_-_-_

Toshi woke up around seven the next morning to a phone call. He looked but he didn't recognize the number

'that must be young midoriya!' he thought happily "Good Morning! Is this the young Midoriya ?" he asked in his booming voice. He was surprised at the sheepish and frantic voice that answered him "oh! Uh, I-I'm sorry this is Inko Midoriya we- we spoke yesterday?" she sounded panicked.

"ah yes! How is the young man?! " his tone was that of happiness and yet, also confusion.

"um well that's the thing" she said, her voice wavering like a life boat in choppy water " he never came home last night"

All Might's heart stopped.
