Yeah, you read that title correctly. I'm gonna be ruining one of the most pure characters in this series. Let's jump right into it.
Izuku Midoriya has unfortunately died after a fight with a villain. Everyone Izuku has ever known, classmates, teachers, etc is now going through early stages of grief. Inko, Izuku's mother, is suffering the most out of everyone.
Yamikumo Akatani is a young, highschool boy living in an orphanage. Everyday he attempts to commit suicide by jumping off of his junior high-school building. He is unable to go through with the attempts because he doesn't want anyone to see him. Every single day someone, Inko, is there as a potential witness.
Yamikumo soon decides to talk with Inko, finally spilling his emotions and problems after isolating himself for so long. Inko makes the bold decision to adopt Yamikumo as her own to replace the child she lost long ago.
Yamikumo lives a happy and peaceful life with Inko, with her acting as Yamikumo's mother. Inko then pops the big question of enrolling Yamikumo into U.A and Yamikumo happily agrees.
Yamikumo attends U.A and everything seems to go really well, with Yamikumo making his first friends. As days go by, Yamikumo starts becoming more and more like Izuku; having the same green hair and somehow obtaining the exact same quirk as him.
Yamikumo starts coming to school less and less and soon doesn't come to school for at least 2 weeks. Yamikumo's friends (Izuku's friends) start getting suspicious and call the police to find him. The police are unsuccessful with the case so the young heros take matters into their own hands.
With no other options, the group break into the Midoriya household only to find a devastating sight.
There, in a large basement is a traumatized Yamikumo strapped to a chair, surrounded by the dead bodies of young boys, with Izuku's rotting body nailed into the wall infront of him.
It's revealed that Inko has been kidnapping young boys similar to Izuku to fill in the void that his death left behind. Yamikumo reluctantly played along with her fantasies for a while, letting her call him Izuku and dying his hair green. Yamikumo finally had enough when he was forced to consume Izuku's hair to obtain his quirk and tried to leave the house. His plan to leave failed as Inko trapped him in the basement so that she could be with her "son" 24/7.
I don't know how to end this thing. If you read through that poor excuse of a story, Good job!
Yamikumo is actually a character who was Izuku's prototype design and when I found out about him I thought of this mess. You're free to give me suggestions. Now excuse me while I go to sleep.
Edit:
Gonna call this AU "Just like him" until someone gives me something better.

This AU is kinda old so I’m not as proud of it as I was when I first came up with it.
