   Summary

   It's been over a year and a half since Midoriya Izuku was kidnapped by the League of Villains. After many failed attempts to rescue him from his captors, they are finally successful, but unfortunately the damage has been done. Midoriya now believes that he is a villain, working for the League, and vehemently hates heroes. It's going to take a lot of time, hard work, and patience to help him return to who he was before.
