You had been a student at U.A., but you weren't like the others. Everyone hated you. Why? Because of your Quirk. You had the ability to absorb Quirks, just like All For One, but with one terrifying difference: you could absorb them without limit, use them whenever you wanted and without any restrictions. That ability earned you everyone's scorn and fear.

You could feel it in their stares, the hatred, the judgment, the fear. The hurtful words echoed behind you every time you took a step down the halls. Your classmates, the other students, even the teachers... no one trusted you. Not even Principal Nezu or All Might could look at you without that mixture of suspicion and fear.

Yet, you never let it destroy you. Your purpose was clear: to save as many people as you could, to defend the defenseless from evil, to prove that your Quirk could be used for good. But everything changed that day.

It was during a brutal battle against the League of Villains. The destruction was such that the air was filled with dust, fire, and screams. In the midst of the chaos, you were distracted for a moment... and that was enough. Toga appeared behind you, with that twisted smile, and stabbed you again and again in the back. You felt the blood drain from your body as you fell to the ground, powerless. Your vision blurred. And there, amid the noise and smoke, you died.

When the battle ended and the League escaped, no one collected your body. None of your comrades, not the heroes, not your teachers. They left you there, thinking they would never see you again.

Months passed. The war against the Paranormal Liberation League claimed many lives, including Midnight's. The heroes believed they would finally have a respite. Until a new threat emerged. A villain was destroying Shibuya, ruthlessly stealing Quirks. Everyone thought it was All For One. The heroes geared up and rushed to the scene, ready to face him.

But when they arrived, they froze. It wasn't All For One. It was you.

You wore a long black kimono, a dark air surrounding your presence. Your ears had earplugs, your eyes shone coldly, and a thick seam was visible on your forehead. You were smiling... but it wasn't a real smile. Midoriya, Bakugo, Todoroki, Uraraka, Iida, Tsuyu, Kirishima, Momo, Tokoyami, Kaminari, Mina, Jiro, Hanta Sero, Shoji, Sato, Hagakure, Ojiro, Mineta, Aoyama, and Koda, along with heroes like Endeavor, Present Mic, Aizawa, Burnin, Emi Fukukado, and Edgeshot, knew you weren't the same anymore.
