Note: This chapter contains suicidal thoughts.

Reporter: Last night, pro heroes Edgeshot, Hawks, Gang Orca and Best Jeanist were found severely injured. The information on who attacked them is not disclosed by the Hero Public Service Commission. Rumor has it that they were initially going after the vigilante Shadow Reaper when this happened. The three heroes are said to be in grave condition, the doctors have said that it might take a miracle for them to recover and go back to being heroes.

Chaos spread through online forums and social media. Rumors started going around that the heroes had captured or even killed the vigilante. The people of japan weren't happy with the heroes now, even those who weren't on the side of the vigilante, were now angry at the government.

"THEY WANT TO HIDE THEIR CRIMES! THAT'S WHY THEY'VE CAPTURED THE VIGILANTE!!"

"WE DON'T WANT THESE HEROES! F*CK THE HERO SOCIETY!"

"We want answers"

They wanted answers and they'll get them, no matter what.

...............................................................

Aizawa sighed as he brought his hands to his temple, in an attempt to lower the headache that he was facing right now. Truthfully if All might hadn't jumped in and rescued the other heroes, they would have been turned into minced meat.

Right now he was on the site where the fight between the heroes and the vigilante took place. The alley walls were painted in blood, while many of hawks feathers lay on the ground also covered in blood. The most unnerving thing was, the remains of the left arm of Gang Orca and Best Jeanist's leg.

To put it lightly, it was very unsettling to him.

Regaining his composure, he focused on the task on hand, collecting samples of blood that was splayed everywhere. Nezu had asked him to do this, in hopes of finding the vigilante's true identity. Now since they weren't allowed to work on this case anymore, he had to do something tricky to get the blood samples.

With the help of tsukauchi, he was able to get past the officers and enter the "crime scene". Turns out, the Hero Commission was so stupid that they forgot to tell the officers to not let any hero enter the crime scene.

He crouched on the ground and started collecting the blood samples from the ground, with only one thought in his head.

Aizawa: I hope you're okay, Shadow Reaper.

.............................................................

The same feeling of pain.

The same pain that he felt before.

But this time,

It was even greater.

He opened his eyes only to find himself in a black void again. The void where he awakened his powers. He didn't fully remember what happened. The moment he hit the ground, he felt his consciousness fading but just at the last moment he remembered hearing his own laughter.

He was confused and had many questions. Did the heroes capture or kill him?

"Or did you kill them?"

Turning to the dark side he saw...... himself? The only difference between him and the boy was the kakuja.

"Who are you?" (y/n) asked the boy, and on cue the boy started laughing crazily.

"Don't you see? I am you." The boy said with an insane smile on his face. The part of kakuja on his face glowed red, as (y/n) took a step back in fear.

"I am the part of you that hates this world. That wants nothing but just to destroy this world. Don't worry I took good care of those heroes." Finishing his sentence, he laughed again.

(y/n)'s eyes widened, as one question was swirling in his mind.

"What did you do?"

His crazier version turned to him and again, smiled insanely. "Oh their screams of pain were melodious to my ears!"

(y/n) froze up. He had killed the heroes, he had become the very thing he was against, he was a monster.

He came back to his thoughts when the crazier version of himself and latched himself onto his back. He whispered in his ear,

"Why are you scared of being a monster? Did they feel sorry when they were turning you into one?"

He didn't get to answer as on cue everything went white.

.............................................................

Kota didn't want to be in this daycare, but his aunt suddenly had to go and take part in a rescue mission. He hated the other kids here as they wanted to be heroes, and suffice to say, that led him to have no friends here. Truth to be told he wanted to have a friend, but none of them agreed with his view on heroes

The young boy sighed as he tugged on his red cap and settled into the bench that he was sitting on, looking at the other kids playing with each other with a scowl on his face.

After some time another kid came and sat beside him, and after catching his breath, he started to talk to him.

??????: Hey there! What's your name?

The boy asked kota with a huge smile on his face. Kota, for the first time, decided to answer the question.

Kota: My name is Kota.

??????: Hi kota! My name's Ryuuji. Who's your favorite hero? Mine is the Shadow Reaper!

At the mention of the vigilante's name, kota turned to face the boy with a curious expression on his face.

Kota: You know that he's a vigilante, not a hero.

Ryuuji: Yup, but he's a hero to me and my family. He saved my mother's life and he even took care of me until my mom was okay.

What followed were the neverending questions and answers of kota and ryuuji.

Ryuuji: Let's be friends, and show the world what true heroes are!

Kota: Mmhmm;

They both pumped their fists in the air and suffice to say, today kota found his first true friend.

................................................................

Aizawa sighed as he walked towards the principal room at U.A. He came here to deliver the blood samples that he collected to Recover girl. Now Nezu had called him to come to his office.

He opened the door and saw the principal smiling. Nezu motioned him to come and take a seat. As he got settled nezu began to speak.

Nezu: Now aizawa, you must be wondering why I called you here.

Aizawa didn't like the smile that present on Nezu's face. He just nodded and hoped that he survived this meeting.

Nezu: An online movement was started for an increase in your pay and due to KillaKoalajr selfless work, you shall get a raise.

Aizawa didn't know who was this individual or who were the people wo participated in it, but he owed them a big thanks. He was so happy that he wanted to jump in the air and scream at the top of his lungs, but settled on a grin.

Needless to say the grin that formed on aizawa's face, will haunt nezu for the rest of his life.

................................................................

(y/n) gasped for air as he shot up from the ground, but was immediately hit with the feeling of pain as he saw his arm was twisted in an inhumane way, but was slowly regenerating. He sighed as he laid back on the ground. He was again in the same wheat field, where he had been when he woke up with his powers.

He remembered his dream, and now remembers what he did to the heroes last night.

He was tired now. His tears slipped down his face, he wanted to leave this world, he wanted to be free from the curse that his life was, he no longer wanted to live and fix this society, or to be loved, he just wanted to rest.

He stood up from the ground and walked to find a cliff just to end his suffering, his pain, his misery.

As he turned, he froze as he saw a girl standing in front of him. Looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Tears started dripping from his own eyes, as the girl in front of him, spoke in a hoarse voice.

"(y/n) is that you?"
