Chapter Text
**Xero**
During the last year of middle school: Izuku midoryia mostly known as Xero is annoyed. He just got away from Kacchan who was no help at all when he was trying to keep a clear mindset. He knew that if he couldn’t think properly he would end up snapping. So, he did the most normal thing he should do in this situation and go into the vents of Aldera junior high. It’s not that kacchan was bulling him or anything, no. He would see kacchan beat up kids for being useless with their quirks and wanted no part of it. His mother faked his quirk when he was little claiming him to have a small intelligence quirk based on analysis. It worked, and life went on.
First year of middle school:Izuku loved the vents, they were small and comfortable to stay comfortable while thinking, Izuku thought a lot. Right now he was thinking of the legality of doing something he would consider fun. What is this fun? Vigilantism of course. Izuku *needed* something new in his life. Izuku follows kacchan around sometimes but mostly he’s quiet and stays to himself. He has had a few friends over the years but doesn’t keep them for long, do to his “creepy” muttering. So their izuku sat thinking up ways of beating up villains quirkless.
When izuku gets home his mom is in the kitchen making katudson.
*Inko*: Izuku dear, mind setting the table we are having dinner early I have something to talk to you about.
( Izuku sees his moms stern expression and quickly gets the table set and sits down)
*Izuku*: Mom? What’s going on…?
(Izuku nervously plays with his hands)
(Inko has a schooled expression)
*Inko*: Izuku I have to take on more hours at work, you will have food in the fridge and a weekly allowance, I’m sorry honey I’m doing all I can to keep the apartment.
Weeks pass and izuku sees his mother less and less. He goes out one night with to go find his notebook he lost earlier and didn’t realize till now. It’s almost midnight and izuku is walking down an alleyway when he hears a scream. He runs to it without thinking and comes face to face with a villain.
