    Summary

    "Some cages are built with kindness. Some are built with fear—and both can kill a dream."

     

    Izuku lost his mother at five years old. His father promised him safety, love, and a life without pain—but the price was freedom. Growing up inside a mansion with no doors, Izuku clings to his dream of becoming a hero, even as he battles isolation, manipulation, and the slow erosion of trust. As he takes his first steps into the real world, Izuku must learn what it truly means to be strong—not for anyone else, but for himself.

    Because some promises are cages. And some cages can only be broken from within.

    Edit: Name and Summary has been changed for more uniqueness.

    Summary

    (Contains MANGA SPOILERS.)
    As of 9/13/2020, abandoned. Revision to be posted with the title 'Twilight Emerald'.

    Izuku Midoriya's path suddenly changes when he is kidnapped before All Might could speak with him after the Slime Villain Incident. He strays into a path not befitting a conventional hero in hopes of uncovering a dastardly group of villains, only to become fast friends with the people he swore to stop.

    They offer him what no one else ever had; friendship, a place to belong, and people who took his dream of Heroism seriously. They see him as a bright and intelligent young worthy of attention, instead of a stupid and foolhardy quirkless child.

    In return for his 'cooperation', the nameless group of villains (headed by All for One) offer him something he can't refuse. Accepting this unimaginably powerful gift comes with baggage he never was aware of, and suspicion from people who would have trusted him has his fate not been tilted.

    Summary

    When the world is consumed with the idolatry of heroes and villains, what makes a power 'super'? When no person is quite alike, what differentiates people from monsters? When your fate is decided from the moment you are born, what quirk flows through your veins... what is choice? When you have to hide away every aspect of who you are, to conform and evolve just to survive... will even the husk of who you used to be remain?

    That late summer night challenged the very foundation of the tightrope our dear heroes face. What makes one a hero? What makes one a villain? What happens when secrets are revealed? When a lie is so much easier to swallow than the truth.
