(I could have edited this a bit more. Also, did I make Tomura too much of a softy?)

Izuku walked into city with Iida and Urakura. They chatted with each other while Izuku kept his mouth shut. He looked around at the people around him. They stared at the three. It made him uncomfortable. Here he was a famous UA student for how well he did in the sports festival. Meanwhile, at home he was a nobody.

He hated the attention. He needed to be able to melt into the shadows to be a villain. His advantage was that no one looked at him twice. No one expected him to be strong, which is how he defeated those around him. A trick he learned from his trainer. The only people who needed to know he was strong was a dying hero when they found out they were defeated by a quirkless nobody.

Tomura was the one who deserved the spotlight. He was the one who was gonna change everything. He was the one who would inherit One For All, kill All Might, and change the world. He prove that heros were not everything, nor were quirks. Izuku was happy to stay in the shadows and help where he could help.

"You ok?" Uraukura asked . "You seem a bit quiet."

"I am fine." he said as they arrived at the small market. "Just got alot on my mind."

"Well, we do have finals coming up in a few weeks." Iida stated. "Knowing UA, it will not be easy. As students…"

Izuku stopped listening when he noticed a strange stand in the market. Was that Hero Killer merchandise. Was Stain a famous in this world? He walked up to the stand and pick up one of the headbands with a frown.

"You have an interest in the deceased hero killer?"

Deceased? That made Izuku sad. He adored Stain as much as Tomura hated him. He even bribed the Hero Killer with some of his journals to spar and teach him tricks. He learned alot from the Hero Killer. Tomura was pissed when he found out. He even sent a nomu to collect him and grounded him. Still, Izuku snuck out to see him. He was a good man.

He jumped when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up to see Iida with a dark look in his eyes.

"I know. But we need to move on."

Izuku nodded. He felt there was more to the story, but knew better to ask. Not here anyway. He resisted the urge to slip the headband into his pocket to bring home. To show Stain he really did make a difference. Atlas, Iida was watching. Wanna be heros did not steal. Stupid rule.

The merchant looked at the two for a moment. "Wait a moment. You two were saved from the hero killer that night, right? After Evdevor defeated him?

He clenched his fists. Evedvor killed him? The only reason he had not gone after him was because Sensi informed him that Todoroki Shoto would eventually be driven to their side by his father.

Iida ignored the man's question and practically dragged Izuku away. "Hey, I know what we went through was hard. But part of being a hero is getting over difficult things."

He bit his tongue at the 'hero' talk. The entire self righteous mountain heros put themselves on made him angry. He needed a break from everything. He wanted to momentarily forget his shitty situation.

"I need to go for a walk."

Without another word he stormed off. He kept walking until he found himself in an empty alleyway. He sat down and threw a pebble against the wall. Everything was calm until a familiar purple blur appeared. His brother stepped out with a wicked glare.

For half a moment he was relieved. His brother was here. He would no longer have to face this world alone.

"I have waited to get you alone since the attack at UA. Imagine my surprise when one of my spies caught you sneaking away."

Oh shit.

…..

The portal pulled the Future Hero and the Villian to what looked like a shady part of the city. Tomura started to walk and urged Midoryia to follow. He still had no choice but to follow.

"You idolize heros too much." He stated. "Behind all the glory and flashy quirks, is a corrupt system."

"Is that what you taught the other me?" Midoriya asked nervously.

Three years with villains could have changed him. Three years of being fed constant lies and the death of his mother could have made him vobureable. Perhaps his other self was simply brainwashed.

To his surprise, Tomura laughed and ruffled his hair with four fingers. He winced away. "I knew the system was corrupt, but never cared about much more than killing All Might. You are the one who brought it to attention that we could actually change things. If anything, you taught us things."

Midoriya was unsure how to respond to that. "But you kill people."

"Unlike heros, we dont place ourselves on a higher moral ground then everyone. We know we are bad people. We accept that." He stretched. "Dammit, Kugorigi really should have moved us closer."

Izuku hugged his arms to his body as the man inched his neck furiously. It must have really hurt. He decided against speaking up though.

They kept walking into the darker part of town. It kept looking shader and shader. It appeared as if most of the small buildings were falling apart. There were a few kids playing in the street who wore rags. They played around what looked like a corpse. The entire place reeked of smoke and death. Izuku had seen poverty before, but never this bad.

"What is this place?" He asked. "Why have officials not felt with the body yet?'"

"This is a place they put people when the jails are overcrowded." He stated. "There are no autories here."

The place looked worse than jail. The entire place reeked of death. He looked back to the kids in the street. "But they are children."

"Children of villains who have nowhere to go." He stated. "They get dumped here with the rest."

He shook his head. "Someone has to do something about this. We have to contact the heros…"

Tomura laughed. "Don't you see? The hero program is what made this place. It is a way to get those they don't want off the streets."

Midoriya shook his head. No. The hero's would not do that. He suspected most of them did not even know about it. But how did they not know? How did he not know? How could people turn a blind eye?

"That is not the worst part. A few of the people here were put here simply because their quirk was too dangerous."

"Society does not want anyone who does not fit the cookie cutter mold unless it is to see the hero's defeat them. There are more places like this all over Japan."

"It is different in my world." He argued. "It has to be. Heroes at home would never allow this to happen."

He growled. "You stupid boy. Of course it is happening in your world. Or at least something similar. Heroes don't care!"

Midoriya flinched back at the sudden anger.

"And stop thinking I will hurt you, Dammit! Why don't you see me as someone who is trying to open your eyes instead of an villian!" His hands shook. "You brat! I never hurt you! You were the first and only person I actually care for!"

Midoriya watched the villain in silence.

"Just because I am a monster, Just because I can kill easily without regret, Just because I ruin everything I touch, does not mean I can't love someone."

There was a moment of silence. Tomura, one of the men he feared the most, actually showed him compassion. He actually cared about something. Not something, him. He did not believe it was possible. Perhaps villains actually could feel.

He always thought of villains as people who cared about nothing more then hurting people and creating chaos. That was wrong of him. Perhaps they were people too. Tomuta thought he was doing the right thing. He was trying to help Midoriya.

"I…. I am sorry." He stammered, unsure what else to say.

"Just shut up." He snarled as he pulled out his phone. He smiled as he read something on screen. "This is fantastic! Sensei has agreed to meet with you!"
