Izuku's POV:

As I woke up I immediatly closed my eyes as bright white light took over my vision. I opened my eyes again but this time slower.

When I got my vision back, I looked around to see I'm in a hospital room and it took me a minutes to remember what had happened yesterday, atleast I think it was yesterday.

Oh right. Bakugou told him to kill himself and hope for a better quirk in his next life, getting attacked by that sludge villain, meeting All Might just for him to crush my dreams further and jumping off the roof.

So.. why am I not dead?

After a few minutes of trying to figure out why I'm here, the door opened to two people who walked in.

Two pro heros..!

Forgetting that fact for a second, I asked the question that has been bothering me since I woke up.

"Why am I not dead?"

Yamada's POV:

Shocked.

That's all that I feel right now. And I'm sure you can see it on my face.

Looking over at Shouta, he did not look any better.

But it's understandable as a kid should never ask that question. A kid, especially his age, shouldn't want to die.

What had happened to the kid that he would want that. And it doesn't help that we don't know who he is. We can't find him in the system, which is worrying.

Looking at the kid, I saw that he had an expecting expression, waiting for one of us to answer him.

"Kid, can you tell us why you were trying to commit suicide?" I heard Shouta ask him.

If you don't know him for as long as I have, you would have thought that he didn't care by the sound of his voice and the expression on his face.

But I know he does care..by the look in his eyes you can see that he's concerned.

After hearing the question, his face emmediatly went blank, no trace of emotion on his face.

He looked at us for a few minutes before bursting into tears.

I stood there shocked, I didn't expect that to happen.

I heard Shouta sigh before going over to him hugging him, trying to comfort him.

I found myself smiling at the scene before me.

Shouta's POV:

I won't lie and say I wasn't surprised seeing the kid burst into tears, because I was.

The kid had this confident look on him just seconds before.

Sighing, I walk towards the kid and hugging him, trying to calm him down.

After a few minutes, the kid calmed down. Giving him a few seconds to his thoughts together.
After that he pulled away wiping the last remaining tears away.

"You good kid?" I asked him, hoping I'm not scaring him.

" Yeah sorry" he said, voice a little scratchy because of the crying.

" Can you tell us now why you were trying to commit suicide?"

I saw Hizashi giving me a glare but I ignored it. We needed to find  information on this kid.

"And maybe tell us why your name isn't in the system."

I saw the kid's eyes widen at that, surprise evedent on his face. But he turned away trying to hide his surprise.

"Umm..I don't know?" he said it more like a qeustion.

Sighing, I frowned starting to get irritated.

"Kid, please don't lie. We only want to help you. So please co-operate with us."

A barely audible 'sorry' was heard from the boy. I was about to ask again when he began to speak.

" I'm not in the system because -" he took a moment to breathe before continuing-"da- Hisashi practically erased me from it. He didn't want to be found out."

I gave him a confused look. Didn't want to be found out? For what?

Looking over at Hizashi, I saw that he had the same qeustion.

"What did you mean ' don't want to be found out' little listener?" Hizashi asked.

The kid looked at us with a look that says he doesn't know what to do.

"Kid, we're not gonna hurt you and your not gonna get in trouble."

The kid just looked at us for  a few minutes before nodding.

"Hisashi wasn't a good man. He never was even before my quirk manifested. He was abusive and manipulative. When I was young he would hit mom infront of, me yelling about how useless and worthless I was. He never hit me. Mom wouldn't let him.
But, one day everything changed.
We were on our way home from the park, earlier than we planned. Hisashi had told us he had some 'friends' coming over and to be back by six. I was playing with some friends when I got hurt. Really badly, so we had to rush home. There was an attack on the bank and thieves were trying to get away in a car. We were crossing the road when it came out of nowhere and hit us. Mom used herself as a shield to protect me, but-" the kid stopped as his voice cracked.

He was trying and failing to keep his tears from falling.

"But in doing so, your mother lost her own life." Hizashi said. You could hear the anger and sadness in his  tone.

"Ever since then I have been abused. To make it worse the kids at school bully me for having a villains quirk.

And today was no different. Except for the fact that All Might saved me from a villain and told me that I couldn't be a hero. To dream more realistically."

That had my blood boiling. He was bullied at school, abused at home and All Might told him he couldn't be a hero.

The fuck is wrong with this world?!

"Don't worry kid. You're not going back. I'm not letting you go back and I can promise you Present Mic will also not allow you to go back. You're safe kid."

After I said that, the kid looked at me in disbelief.

"You mean, I'm free?"
