Chapter One: The Beginning

"Some villains just can't be beaten without powers. So can you be a hero? Not without a quirk"

Midoriya gasped, he couldn't believe what his hero, his inspiration, just said to him. He looked down in shame, his mind going 100 miles a minute but no words coming out.

All Might grabs the bottle with the slime monster he caught, "I'm counting on you to stay quiet about this, I'm headed to the station to get rid of this guy, so long kid," he walks towards the stairs and then stops. "There is plenty of other ways to help people, you can be a police officer, it's not bad to have a dream kid just make sure they're realistic."

All Might leaves and Midoriya stands there in disbelief. 'I always knew this but I guess I just couldn't accept it. Even All Might said it, there's no way I can be a hero' a tear ran down Midoriya's cheek. He slowly walks down to the exit and begins his walk home.

20 Minutes Later...

As Midoriya continues his walk home looks down at his somewhat burned notebook, 'I've written 13 of these, for nothing pretty much.' Suddenly a man bumps into him, and he drops his notebook, "Oh, sorry sir," said Midoriya looking up at the man he just bumped into.

The man picks up his notebook, "It's no big deal kid, just watch where you're going," he took a long drag on his cigarette while looking at his notebook. "Hey, these notes are impressive kid," he looked at the front cover, "and you've made 13 of these," said the man.

"Umm, yeah I've made plenty of them but it's nothing special, besides I think I'm done making these," said Midoriya rubbing the back of his head.

"That's a shame, may I ask why," said the man.

Midoriya thought of All Might and what he said, "I'm quirkless, so there's no way I can be a hero," said Midoriya. "It's better if I just stop and aim at something more realistic."

'Hmm,' thought the man."Here you go kid, Oh and I want you to take this" said the man handing back his notebook and a card. "I see promise in you, the determination is there even if you're feeling hopeless right now, I can try and help you so give me a call if you want kid," said the man walking away while continuing to smoke his cigarette.

"Wait, what," said Midoriya but the man had already started walking away. Midoriya looks at the card, "Wait, this just has his number on it," he looks at the man walking away. 'What does he mean, he can help me?' thought Midoriya. He puts the card in his pocket and continues the walk home debating when or if he should call.
