Title: A Quirk For Me...
….
Quirks, something that would have normally been strange and not something that can be explained by normal logic.
Izuku looks at his arm as he is in another and feels a strange power within himself. 'What is happening with All For One… it is acting strange…'
"Did you hear about the Flash's newest articles? He is breaking records and his numbers are even better than when All Might was younger." The people around him start talking about the newest trend.
"Yeah man, he is definitely gonna be the number one Hero."
"I was a little nervous when All Might retired, but now that we have a new one I see no reason to worry."
"I know right, some analysts say that he solves things even faster."
"So what? All Might was still stronger, all Flash has on his side is speed."
"You retard, haven't you seen videos of him? He shoots some lazer things that seem super strong."
"So what? How fast can he even be?"
"I dunno, but some analysts say that he is faster than the speed of sound."
….
-Izuku POV-
Hearing this group of people talk I can't help but feel a little nervous about the situation.
Sorry All Might, I just can't seem to be able to catch up to Kaminari at all. For every step I take forward he takes two. He seems to grow faster and the distance between us doesn't feel like it is closing at all… it feels like it is widening.
*sigh* I train so hard, so why does it feel like he is still the strongest person here. People even compared him to All Might and he already has stats better than him in his younger days, even All Might in his prime technically didn't resolve as many cases as Kaminari. But by that time he was saving cities so it isn't a fair comparison.
Some fans of Kaminari have started appearing, they all think that Kaminari is the new symbol of peace and even better than All Might. They all sh*t talk their way through arguments online… they seem to have a lot of time.
"Deku, be careful, this is the place where people have gone missing." Mirio brings me out of my thoughts when he says that.
Right, people have gone missing around here, and a new unknown villain has been born… people have given him the name Yami (Darkness) because he always seems to work on dark alleys and no one has gotten a glimpse of what he looks like.
This is what we are supposed to investigate here. A dangerous villain who never shows himself to heroes and only some people have seen his visage and that was mostly of people who have some kind of observation Quirk.
The Villain's Quirk is unknown but it must be something along the lines of Mind Control so we must be careful because he was able to get the victims to follow him.
…
-General POV-
"Hello there~" A voice suddenly comes from the darkness. Immediately Mirio and Izuku stop in their tracks, not knowing what they just heard. The voice could be of any gender and when they look at where it came from, it is just an empty alley covered in darkness.
Mirio looks around suspiciously and sees people just walking around normally. 'It seems like none of them heard anything, even though the voice seemed kind of loud. At such a creepy voice, anyone would have at least sent a glance this way. So that means that only we can hear what is being said.'
Izuku notices that the air no longer smells like the streets, but instead like a very familiar scent of flowers on a field. The alley itself looks strange, even though it is a bright sunny day… the place is still perfectly covered in darkness like someone had taken a ruler to separate at where the darkness would start.
The whole thing made Izuku feel chills down his spine, and on top of not seeing the talking person makes both him and Mirio be on guard.
"Amazing, isn't it?" Asks the person. "This has always been my favorite world. Always perfect, and even the villains will forever be overthrown by the Heroes. Nice and catchy right?"
"Who are you?" Asks Mirio as he looks around, still unable to determine the location of where the voice came from.
"Who am I?" The man repeats the question. "Well, that doesn't matter. What matters is my plan."
"What is that supposed to mean?" Asks Izuku, as he had already taken note of everything that he has seen today. He is trying to figure out where the voice is coming from and who the man could be.
"Well, every great Hero needs his great Villain. Isn't that so?" Says the man again, and this time Mirio finally catches something at the corner of his sight, a man drinking at a cafe he seemed normal and very average looking. Dark wide eyes and very short dark hair, his body seemed to have a very developed musculature. Suddenly he takes a notepad and looks directly at Mirio and smiles.
But at that instant, Mirio understood, that was the man they were looking for. He is wearing a gray short-sleeved shirt and white sports pants, he seemed like the definition of a guy with all muscle and no brain. That is all normal but… the vibe that he was released seemed to be as if staring into a dark abyss. 
"Deku, right there!" He shouts as he slips underground.
Izuku looked at where Mirio pointed and saw the man. But instantly his body stops in its tracks, sweat boils out and every pore in his body tells him to run away. It felt like standing in front of All For One again.
Fwosh!
Mirio on the other hand had already come up behind the man and cocked his fist backward, ready to attack him.
That is when the man looks at Mirio surprised and asks. "What are you doing?!"
At that split second, Mirio stops and lets his guard down, thinking that he must have made some kind of mistake. After all, the man was just staring and smiling at him, nothing more.
Pow!!
A gunshot rings out and Mirio looks down and sees a gun pointed at his midsection. He looks back at the man in front of him, whose face changes from a panicked look back to its cold and smiling nature. Again, the feeling of danger radiates from the man.
'Hs shot without remorse, knowing that I wouldn't dodge due to the civilians behind me.' Contemplates Mirio as a wave of nausea hits him.
"Ara~ you let your guard down to thinking that I was a civilian. How careless of you, your heroic nature got in front of your instincts." Says the man, finishing up his cup of tea and getting up, patting Mirio in the shoulder as the young man staggers.
"Someone call the police!" Yells out one of the people in the crowd as everyone evacuates away.
<One For All: Full Cowling 20%>
Fwish!
Izuku finally came to his senses and charged at the man. The man's eyes widen at this and he brings up his arm.
Baam!
He blocks Izuku's kick, but he slides away and crashes into a wall.
*cough*
The man coughs a little. "Damn kid, that was one hell of a kick. Kids these days, always getting stronger and strongest. Folks like me now start feeling like we are the strange ones."
His body stands up straight and he seems unhurt.
Izuku takes his pose but as he sees Mirio bleeding, he feels conflicted about what he should do.
