Chapter 1
Izuku was having a normal day. He got up, his mom yelled at him, he went to school, his teachers yelled at him, he left school, and Kacchan and his friends chased him down the street.
His lower lip wobbled. This was all because he was Quirkless. When Mommy had taken him to the doctor because he wanted to know what his quirk was, he didn't expect to get his 'diagnosis'. She said he couldn't be a hero! He didn't care. He would be a hero, no matter what, but why was Kacchan being mean?
When he told Kacchan that he wasn't going to get a quirk like him, he had been really, really mad. He called Izuku a shitty Deku. Was he a shitty Deku? That's what all the teachers called him too, ever since Mommy told them he didn't have a Quirk.
Was that really so bad? Why couldn't he be a hero now? Why couldn't he be a hero just because he was Quirkless? Wasn't a Quirk just a tool? Izuku didn't know, but Mommy stopped being nice after her big adult argument with Daddy. Daddy went to America. Was Izuku the reason Daddy went away? Daddy had said that he couldn't believe that she had birthed such a worthless Null. Mommy agreed with him. The morning after Daddy left, Mommy hadn't made him breakfast.
All she did was bang on his door and yell really loud at him to get up. She didn't even get him dressed! Why was Mommy always mad now? Did he do something wrong? Should he apologize?
He should probably apologize. After all, wasn't it his fault Mommy was mad? Izuku got dressed. He made his bed, and he made Mommy some scrambled eggs. His were burnt a little but, but that was okay! Mommy's weren't!
Mommy came out of her room and Izuku ran up to her and hugged her legs. "Hi Mommy! Good Morning! I made you eggs!" She pushed him away, and he fell on his butt. His eyes welled up. Why would Mommy push him? Didn't Mommy love him? Maybe it was an accident.
He pushed himself up with his hands and brushed off his clothes. "Mommy, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you mad, please let me fix it!" By the end of his small speech his eyes had overflowed, and tears were rushing down his cheeks.
Through his blurry vision, he saw his Mommy come closer. Was she going to hug him? He opened his arms, but instead a hand came down on his little cheek. Izuku started wailing.
Mommy hit him! He grabbed his backpack and ran to school, ignoring the fact that he was going to be very early. His Mommy had just hit him! Did good Mommy's do that? He didn't think so. Kacchan's Mommy didn't hit him.
He had a normal day at school. Kacchan was a meanie, but he wasn't to mean. He only used his quirk on Izuku once!
After school Kacchan said he wanted to play tag. Of course Izuku wanted to play! Then everybody started chasing him. It was scary! He ran a lot through the city, but he was lost!
He turned a corner and tripped onto his face. Oh no! Kacchan could catch him now! He got up and started running forward, but before he could Kacchan latched onto his arm, setting of his quirk while screaming "Deku!!" In his face.
Suddenly Tsubasa screamed. Kacchan turned to look at where he was pointing, but Tsubasa was already running away. Kacchan quickly followed, so Izuku looked into the dark alley.
There was a man! He was bleeding! There was so much blood! Was that a stab injury? He finally saw the mans face and his eyes were beautiful. Black and empty, but they seemed to shine with every color in the world. He could feel tears running down his cheeks, but he had to help this man!
He ran over as fast as he could and sat down by the man. "Do you need help mister sir-san?" Izuku really hoped the man wasn't too hurt. He didn't know how to help somebody who had been bleeding so much!
The man didn't answer, and Izuku fidgeted a little bit. Could he talk? "Can you speak?" The man jerked and then spoke in a whispery voice. "Yes, sorry kid, I'm okay."
Izuku was not impressed. He didn't think the man was okay. "Are you sure?" Uh-huh, I mean, Um yes." Well, if the man was sure, than he was probably okay.
"Okay! I'm Midoriya Izuku, and I'm this many!" He held up five fingers. He figured the man would want to know who he was. Well, he wanted to know who the man was too! "What's your name mister sir-san?" He tilted his head. This man was very interesting.
The man seemed very happy when Izuku asked that question. "I'm Death, and I have a job offer for you." Izuku's eyes widened.
