   Summary

   "A rude awakening would be a gentle way to describe what Izuku was faced with upon opening his eyes.
   With a kick drum in his head, a sticky film covering his skin, and a dull powerful pain in his gut, he felt as though he was ready to keel over and die not even three seconds after he half opened his foggy eyes.
   .
   .
   .
   'Oh.' He thought, befuddled. 'I’m in a dumpster.'"

   When Izuku wakes up mysteriously in a dumpster after walking home one day, his whole world changes right under his feet. Follow him as he claws and fights his way back to the light of his lost life with the help of a mysterious power awakening within him. Can he truly be a hero?
