"DAD?!"

"Izuku, my boy, hope you're doing well. Please take a seat." He commanded, choking back the tears and masking the need to jump up and steal his son away. To beg forgiveness for not being there for him, his precious Izuku..

I was in shock.

'I thought he was still in prison! How did he escape? Why was he here? And why is he my boss's superior? He wasn't even a Villain, just rather unlucky, so how...'

"Not meaning to interrupt your thinking out loud, but we need to start this meeting." He chortled, the sound echoing in his chest like it did when he teased mom and me...

"Right, sorry." I said blanky, pushing down all my muddled feelings of pain and anger.

"Now Izuku, you are our undercover agent who has just got accepted into UA so that you can gather all the information you can on all the teachers, Heroes and students." He affirms.

I nod.

'Straight to business it seems.' I think bitterly.

"How far have you gotten in collecting the information required and how much do you have?"
I took out my now eight completed Hero analysis notebooks and placed them on the table with pride.

He picks one up and smiles with satisfaction as he flips through one of the newer ones. "You got all of this much despite...everything." he whispers.

"Izuku," My dad said gravely, breaking the silence which had been building up, "it's about time that we explain your actual assignment, it's not something one can speak about over the phone especially considering your current conditions. I warn you it will not be a simple or easy task and, if handled recklessly, can end very messily."

This caught my attention, hook line and sinker. It sounded like a challenge, a chance to fight, an opportunity to avenge.

"You are to lead and plan the takedown of UA. You are our inside guy, coordinating and planning the attacks. This is why it is imperative that you stay undercover and on your toes. Do not get caught or you will be killed."  All For One speaks for the first time this evening, his voice scratchy and soft. He still has difficulties breathing due to his injuries from that fight with All Might a couple of years ago. I'd never seen Shigaraki cry before...

"Basically, destroy the school, burn it to the ground. Bring their precious image into ruin." The fire in the grate flares and a rumbling growl echoes through the room like a dragon's roar.

"You can take it as a literal or figurative statement." My dad jokes, lightening up a bit, and the crushing aura around him disappears.

"This will also be your final test to see if you are fit for the position of the leader of the League." One For All adds.

'This is...this is an act war! How can do this? But I can't fail, if I do I won't be able to lead the League and Shigaraki will take my place! We'll all die after a month if that happens.'

I looked down at the floor, fists clenched.

Destroy UA ?

I'm not too sure what to feel: nervous, excited, scared, guilty?

'What would mom think about this?... She's dead. She can't think about anything. She's dead because of those Heroes.' My mind reminds me.

"I think this plan could work." I mumble to mself.

"I know this is a big responsibility but I want you to understand what this means. It will be the first step in our revolt against society and the Heroes." My dad spits out the word as if it's poison.

"They see everything as black and white, if people don't fit into box A or B then they are tossed aside. Society has no idea what a real hero is and neither do the Heroes. People are considered Villains even if they know or are related to a Villain--who often have done nothing wrong. Heroes today are self-centred and won't do anything unless there is a spotlight." His eyes burn with passion and conviction. He finishes off his speech with a firm, "That has to change."

I smirk, determination filling me to the core of my being, "Don't worry dad I'll do it!"

My dad smiles proudly at me and All For One just nods from behind the t.v.  screen.

"Oh and Izuku, quick thing to remember, while at work you have to call me Lucifer, it's my alias. I'll also have to call you by your alias, which is..."

'What is it? I can't remember!
Dabi and I came up with it...and I remember that we tried so many: Rabbit, Champion, Soul Starer, Secret Keeper, Ghost...'

Oh yes!

"Reaper." I say solemnly. Considering my past it fit quite well.

It's time for me to show the world what I can do. What we can do.

Its time for change. One way or another people will see the grey.

The revolution begins today!
