《Pain (Discontinued)》Ringed Eyes

"We are here live at the scene of a villain attack. It appears there has been a villain attack at Musutafu Central. It seems as if a villain with a slime-like quirk has taken a hostage! The hostage appears to be a teenager with an explosion quirk! The heroes aren't doing anything! Where is All Might? Wasn't he in town? We are reporting live from Hero 1"
"Aah! What the hell is that villain doing?" "He has my purse please help!" A civilian woman pleaded. A villain with a sludge like quirk ran from the scene, the woman ran after the villain, hoping her pleads would be answered, And answered.. they were
"It's All right" A lanky man started before growing in size A gigantic blond man stood in place of the sickly individual
His shadowed eyes brought comfort to the people. His Smile gave hope. His precence instilled fear into the corrupted heart of many. This was All Might! The one who stands at the top of the hero World
______________________________________
"Damn it! If it wasn't for that stupid hero I'd be home free. But this is a pretty good find. With such a strong quirk I can kill All Might in one attack" The sludge villain spoke in glee glancing down at his hostage
The hostage was a teenager with sandy blond air, crimson eyes and an explosive quirk to match his explosive temper. Katsuki Bakugo, Self proclaimed Future Number 1 hero
Katsuki was struggling to breath as the villain was forcing parts of it's body or sludge into his mouth
His Quirk was being forced activated as the villain was controlling his hands. The explosion had caused a fire which gradually spread across the near by stores. Rubble had been littered everywhere
The heroes were battle ready and we're about to charge in to the fray risking their lives to save the poor boy

At least that's what would have happened in a comic book or a perfect world
In this era of quirked individuals, the society is corrupted. The majority join the profession of a hero to gain fame and money. It would have been alright if the money they earned was used humbly but again.. this is not a perfect world
The heroes become heroes to gain fame and use their fame to commit heinous acts. Their fame allows them to cover up their actions and what is worse is that no one suspects a thing
They only do jobs that would help in increasing their popularity. Their sacrifice 100 others for their own gain
The heroes Kamui woods, Death Arms and Mount Lady stood by, watching the villain suffocate the poor, innocent boy who has done nothing wrong in his life and aspires to be a great hero who gives others a sense of comfort and safety.... Right?
No! Katsuki Bakugo is an egoistic, selfish boy who thinks he is a god. He feels pleasure in proving the weak ARE weak and he is the strongest. He discriminates against the quirkless
And those with quirks weaker than him and ruthlessly bullies them. Katsuki Bakugo is what you would call a villain but no one care for his wicked actions. Why? You might ask. Because he has a strong quirk
In this Era of Quirks their is a system of hierarchy. A system where society sets people's paths on stone
A quirkless is trash, useless waste of space
A person with a villainous quirk will surely become a villain
A person with a weak quirk will become a law-abiding citizens who will worship the heroes
And the person with a powerful and flashy quirk will become a popular hero
Such is the sad, painful truth...

"My quirk isn't suited for this situation" Death arms said "Mine too, I'll let someone else handle this. Hold on kid for a little while" Kamui wood made an excuse "Oh~ My quirk requires me to have a space equivalent to two lanes to work freely" Mt.Lady said seductively
'I am sorry young man. Please hold on for a little longer. A hero will come and save you' Toshinori Yagi, more famously known as All Might thought to himself, guilt clouding His mind. He had run out of time. He could forcefully activate his quirk which would cost him some of his time but he couldn't why? Because surely the life of a 18 year old teenager is not important than the thousands of lives he could save
"Hahaha! I am invincible, unbeatable. With this quirk no one could beat me"
The villain grinned "Come on Kid! The sooner you stop resisting the sooner you pain will end"
Katsuki pried the sludge away from his face, earning him a breath of oxygen which he gratefully breathed in
"You fucker think you could beat me, What could you do with a useless quirk like yours" Katsuki enraged the villain further
The villain forced more sludge down the boy's throat, earning a choking sound in return
"Damn it! That kids gonna die" Kamui woods said, fake concern etched in his voice
T
he bystanders started whispering to each other of their concern towards the high schooler. They watched the scene as if it was a movie
Everyone already accepted that the boy was a lost cause. Toshinori was about to jump in until
"Wait! Who's that! A boy no older than the one captured is approaching the villain"
He had a robe not accustomed to the people of Japan, indicating he was a foreigner or perhaps a traveler. His face was hooded and hidden from the rest of Japan
"Y-you! I am going to kill you!" the villain send an explosion to the boy.
The viewers breaths hitched, Thats what he gets for doing the job of a hero The thought a certain wood hero
The smoke from the explosion cleared to reveal the boy unharmed. Not even his robe was harmed
"10 years" the boy started. His monotone voice sending shivers down the villains spine "10 years later I come to my home town to find a piece of sewer terrorizing the city"
The boy lifted his head, the hood shadowing his face. A faint purple glow could only be seen by the sludge villain and his captive
They say when you stare at the abyss
The abyss stares back...
"Shinra... Tensei..."
The last thing the villain and Katsuki saw was....
His Ringed Eyes

Casa do Diaño: The Fool
As Thomas Hobbes once said, "Humans are driven by a perpetual and restless desire for power." Given the heavily moral standards society has placed on its inhabitants for centuries, it's no wonder many people deny their internal need to be in control of something. "Oh, we do not want to rule the world at all! We just want to live happy and die happy!" Of course, the irony there is that, by wanting a happy future, you are actually projecting your own desires and opinions into what the world should be like. Hence your inner monarch banging his/her scepter for all their subjects to hear. Though to be fair, this is a pretty small, small example. Why settle for small? Why not go the extra mile and become that vicious monarch pounding his scepter at his feet? This is the story of a young man by the name of Genghis Dillinger Boy. There are quite a few words that can describe Genghis. Anarchist. Libertine. Criminal. Psychopath. He has denied the moral standards society has set for him and constantly lives his life seeking more and more power. Once an unexpected turn occurs in his life, he uses it as an excuse to burn his bridges and move him and his bride to a mysterious island known as Casa do Diaño. Genghis vows to burn the old world to the ground and watch as his brand new world arises from the ashes. But what if he's biting off more than he can chew? After all, monsters like Genghis are not the only kind of monsters lurking in the House of the Devil...

Earth Exodus
Elliot isn't the first one taken, he was the last, or one of them at least. Careless divines, gods, or higher powers had been snatching humans through numerous means over the years.

When as he reaches for it the power isn't all it's cracked up to be.Systemless in a world where everyone else has access to one Elliot must grapple with a multitude of problems from without and within.

Will he be able to catch up to his fellow earthlings who're ever increasing in power? Is it possible he may just break out of his shell along the way?*** What to expect ***The initial start will be quite slow, building the setting, history, and individuals involved. There is a small bit of progression in these early chapters for the MC, but more along the lines of figuring out how their systemless power works. though once the story gains traction it won't stop.*** Don't tell Elliot, but ***Elliot hates to admit it but he's very clearly antisocial. Not to mention troubles with thinking that stem from several un-diagnosed disorders he'd rather believe don't exist.*** Image Copyright *** //In this satellite image released by Copernicus Sentinel imagery, 2020 twitter page dated Dec. 31, 2019, shows wildfires burning across Australia.
