Who Are You?
Hey Everyone I'm back with another story. This one will be a Kimi No Na Wa AU, or better known as Your Name, the masterpiece of an anime movie. I have seen this movie so many times I just HAVE to write some beautiful Izuocha for it. Anyways, I'll be going over the events of the Your Name movie with a bnha twist (As well as my own twists). I'll be updating in between chapters of my pokemon fic, so watch out for it! For now, enjoy!
Sometimes, in the morning when I wake up, I find myself crying. I don't know why it happens or what's wrong, but the feeling that I've lost something very important lingers for a long time after I rise.
I've always felt as if I were looking for something. It could be a thing, a feeling, maybe even a person. In the end, it doesn't really matter what it is, just that something is...missing. Like a piece of me is that was once there disappeared one day.
Ever since that day, I've been searching. Searching for the thing that I lost. The person that I lost.
Izuku woke up as if it were any other day. He turned over on his side, gleaning away from the light shining into his eyes. He smothered his face into his pillow, trying to force himself back into slumber.
No, I should get up… I'll be late for school… He thought. Reluctantly, he pushed himself off his bed into a sitting position. Except, something felt different under him. His bed felt much more...solid than before.
Rubbing his eyes clear, he noticed something else was very off. He was wearing a bright pink sleeping gown, polka-dotted with even brighter pink spots. There was something...else as well. The way his chest rounded out was...not normal.
Are these...Izuku put his hands up to his own chest and pushed them against the mounds present lightly. They squished softly in his hands, just like real ones should.
Only then did he notice everything that was off about the room around him. There was light brown hair that dropped in front of his vision slightly. He was wearing a pink night dress, and the room around him was significantly more feminine. There were hair products and flowers laid out around. He wasn't in his room at Yuuei, that was for certain.
"Ahh!" He said, shock all hitting him at once. He jumped to his feet, panicking. That shriek was strikingly feminine.
"Are you alright, honey?" A man's voice Izuku didn't recognize called from somewhere else in the building he was in.
This must be a dream! I-I've turned into a girl! Izuku thought panicked. "Everything's alright!" He yelled back. The voice that came out of his mouth was not his voice. Trying to keep as level of a head as possible, he ran up to the mirror in the room and gazed into it to confirm his suspicion.
True enough, the face looking back at him was not...his. It was to circular, and pink blush was present on the cheeks. His had short brown hair similar to a bowl cut from the top of his head, and it was brown, not green. Lastly, he dropped the robe.
Sure enough, as if to seal the deal, two, circular breasts were there to finalize the suspicion.
Izuku's face turned redder than a tomato.
Ochako woke up as if it were any other, normal day. She got up off the makeshift mattress on the ground. And got dressed in her school uniform. Ignoring her bed head, she went downstairs to get some breakfast.
"Good morning!" She said cheerfully, making her way to the rice cooker. She opened it up, getting blasted with a warm wave of steam. She inhaled as deeply as possible through her nose, taking in the great scent of fresh rice. She quickly spooned herself out a large bowl.
She went to sit down, but as she looked up she saw the weird look her father was giving her.
"Is this too much?" She asked, taking her spot on the opposite side as him. It was a minimalistic table, just stumpy wooden legs and a flat top. Then again, it was just the two of them, so there wasn't much need for more seats. Nobody ever visited anyways.
"No, it's just you're acting...normal today." He noted, taking a sip of his coffee.
"What do you mean?" She tilted her head.
"When you came downstairs yesterday, it was like a demon had possessed you. You were nuts!"
What on earth… Ochako thought.
"I don't have a clue what you're talking about." Ochako said, going back to her rice. Her dad just sighed and went back to eating his breakfast as well. They ate in silence for a few more moments.
"Don't you have to be getting to school?" Her dad eventually piped up.
"What ti-AH!" Ochako wailed, finally noticing how late she had woken up, "I have to be there in 5 minutes! It's all the way across the lake!" Ochako shoved the last of her rice in her mouth frantically, putting on her socks and shoes, as well as her school uniform.
"Have a nice day, honey!" Her dad bid her farewell as she shot out the door. She turned around the corner before something caught her eye. The old scooter bike they kept from when they moved here.
It hasn't had gas for years… Ochako realized, defeated. Another long walk it is.
Ochako found herself nearly dozing of in class. It was really turning out to be a bad day. First she wakes up late and shows up to school late, and now the teacher was going over some absurdly boring topic.
"Something something twilight, blah blah blah…" Ochako mumbled, resting her head on the desk in front of her. She flipped through the notebook, taking notice of the doodles on the inside.
Some depicted just random spur of the moment ideas, such as flowers or a tree, while others had more importance. One that specifically caught her eye was the one she'd just made last week.
It depicted herself, wearing a bright pink and black hero costume. She was lifting massive chunks of concrete off of earthquake villains. At the top of the little drawing was the bolded text "Uravity!" Ochako sighed,
A dream best forgotten…. She thought.
She had always wanted to be a hero, ever since she was young. Not only did she want to help people, but she also knew heroes made good money. Being a hero would have landed her enough money to help out her parents, whose construction company was failing.
But three years ago things took a turn for the worst. When they had gotten a construction contract way back then, everyone was excited. It was a small job in a remote town called Itomori, and would require them to live in the area for a few months, but that wasn't a problem considering that it would save them, for a few more months anyways.
Everything went downhill when Ochako's mother fell ill. Apparently it was an extremely rare virus that many of the locals had an immunity to from years living in the area. She caught the disease and it was like a storm went through her. She didn't last two weeks.
The medical bills had crippled Ochako's father, not to mention his mental state. He fell into a deep depression for a couple years and practically ignored his business. The company went bankrupt and the two of them were forced to take up permanent residence in Itomori.
Ochako was understanding. Circumstances change, and she had been heartbroken at the loss of her mother as well. Understanding and accepting were two completely different things.
Her entire shot at becoming a hero, the one thing she dreamed of, went out the window the day her mother died. The only high school in Itomori didn't have a heroics program. Odds are she would be stuck in this little village for the rest of her life.
Ochako absentmindedly turned the page again, wishing to take her thoughts off of those memories. What she expected to be a blank page was pointedly not blank.
"Who Are You?" It read.
The school bell tore Ochako from her thoughts.
"You're acting surprisingly normal today, Uraraka." Kirishima Ejirou said once lunch hour started.
"Normal? You're the second one to say that to me today." Ochako muttered, putting a piece of her sandwich in her mouth.
"Yeah, he's right. You forgot where your classes and locker were. You had really bad bed head and no ribbon in your hair. It was like you had amnesia." Mina added, smug look on her pink face.
"I-I don't remember any of this." Ochako responded.
"You kept saying 'this must be a dream' under your breath, too" Kirishima finished.
"You seriously don't remember?"
Ochako shook her head, "No, though there was something odd today in class. Did either of you write this in my notebook?" She pulled the notebook out of her bad and showed them the page marked with the "Who are you" text.
"Nope."
"Nu-uh."
"Weird…" Ochako breathed, "I just wish I could get out of this town…" She mumbled.
Ochako walked by the shrine on the way home. It was dark already, so the lights from the special ceremony could be seen from anywhere in the tiny town.
She was walking by with Mina and Kirishima when she overheard a conversation.
"They say that this tradition is held every few years to appease those ancient gods that the people of this town used to believe in." One of the villagers mentioned.
"Why keep doing it then?"
"For tradition's sake. Tradition is all we have these days."
You've got that right… Ochako continued walking home.
About an hour later, she sat on the small stone balcony that their little house had to overlook the rest of the village.
It's all wrapped up around the lake, like a scene from a movie. It would be beautiful...If I weren't stuck here. Ochako sighed and picked up the mug next to her. She tossed it into the air, activating her quirk on it. The ceramic just floated into the sky, defying all gravity.
"I wish I could just fly away like that…" Ochako mumbled, releasing her quirk. Gravity retook hold on the mug, causing it to plummet back to earth, right back into Ochako's hands. She did this a few more times.
"Why couldn't I just have been born as a handsome Tokyo boy!" She yelled into the void, falling onto her back.
It's probably time for bed anyways…
Ochako woke up to the sound of a phone alarm going off.
Now that's odd...usually I don't set an alarm...Ochako thought. She reached out her hand towards the source of the noise, only to be met by open space. The fumbled her arm around a little more, but something suddenly shifted below her.
"Ahh!" She called out as she fell off her bed. Wait...bed?
Ochako sat up and looked around . Not only was there a full sized bed (not a little mattress on the ground), she was in a large room stocked full of All Might merchandise. Like, every single decoratable square foot of the room was covered with something related to All Might.
This isn't my room… Ochako thought as she stood up, her bed sheet falling off her body. She felt...taller than normal. She walked around, exploring the room.
Except, when she took a first step, she noticed something very...off.
There's something there…. Ochako realized. She looked down at her body, only to realize that it wasn't her body. Her arms were littered with deforming scars, and she could barely feel her right arm. Like, it was almost totally numb.
Then, there was the fact that her precious hair was gone, replaced by an unruly, green bush on top of her head. Her legs were hairy and there was...something between her legs.
She peeled back the waistband, daring a small look to confirm her suspicion. She looked down and...yep. That was a thing. Okay.
Recovering from how red her face was, she decided to try to figure out what was going on. Obviously this was a dream. She hadn't just randomly become a completely different person overnight.
I am here! All Might's voice echoed throughout the room, scaring Ochako. She went over and picked up the phone, looking at the message.
"From Iida Tenya- Hurry, Midoriya! You may be late if you do not pick up the pace!" Ochako read out loud.
"Late?" Ochako panicked. Even though it was a dream, for some reason it felt extraordinarily real. Frantically she got dressed into what looked like the school uniform, ignoring how embarrassed by the look of her own, yet not her own body.
She blasted open the door of the room she was in, expecting to be met with a house. Instead, she was met with a giant open area, with railings overlooking a staircase. The walls were lined with doors.
Dorm Rooms?
"Hey Midoriya! Just wakin' up? Must be a rough day for ya, buddy! C'mon with us, before you're late!" A boy with spiky yellow and black hair called, waving Ochako on.
May as well go along with the dream… she thought, jogging over. She felt extraordinarily energetic, like there was an extra boost of strength there that she wasn't used to.
Walking with the yellow haired boy was a girl, who had short violet hair and red marks under her eyes. Extending from under her ears were what looked like earphone jacks.
"You're usually as early as Iida, Midoriya! What, did you sleep your alarm?" The yellow haired boy said.
"Something like that…" Ochako muttered.
"At least he shows up on time, unlike you, Kaminari." The purple haired girl said.
So his name is Kaminari...
"Yeah, yeah." Kaminari brustled off. They walked down the stairs and made it out of the dorm building. Ochako just generally followed the flow of where Kaminari and the purple haired girl went.
Eventually, the sight of a large glass building came into sight. It was like a square with four large pillars and bridges connecting them.
Yuuei! Ochako thought. You'd have to be living under a rock to not know what Yuuei was. Ochako was expecting to walk past the gates. Yet, when Kaminari and the girl walked through the metal arch, no problem, Ochako's excitement couldn't be contained.
"I'm going to Yuuei!" She yelled out, stepping past the arch as well. Kaminari looked back and gave him a weird look.
"You've been going to Yuuei for two years…" He said, giving Ochako a weird look.
"I-uhh-I-uhmmm…." Ochako stuttered. Why did this seem so real? Was she really going to a hero school in her dream? "I'm just a little excited, that's all."
"Well, we do have combat training today. You're always good at that." The purple haired girl said.
"That's what it is!" Ochako said, trying to change the subject. Ochako followed the two all the way through the maze of hallways until they got to their homeroom. There were sixteen total students, excluding Ochako herself.
What's in store? Ochako thought, taking the empty seat she hoped was hers.
Wait, if this is a hero school, then that means I have a really strong quirk! What's my quirk? She tried touching the desk with all five fingers, but nothing happened. I don't have me quirk, so it seems.
"Hey, Midoriya! You're late!" A boy with short blue hair ran up to Ochako, waving his arms frantically. Ochako sat up a little straighter and scratched the back of her head.
"Sorry, I just found it a little hard to get out of bed this morning."
"That is no way a future hero should be acting! As class representative, I must ensure that everyone is doing what the need to!" he said. Ochako was a little taken aback by his sudden aggressiveness.
"Lay off, Iida. It looks like he's having a bad day." Kaminari called over, "Plus he would've been here sooner if I didn't insist he walk with us."
If I had known where to go...Ochako thought. Suddenly, the blue haired boy, Iida, bowed to Ochako.
"My apologies. Midoriya. I just want to ensure that you're doing what you need to in the future." Iida said. Ochako was taken aback by the sudden change in demeanor, so she took an extra moment to react.
"O-oh, yeah, it's fine." She finally said. Iida nodded again and returned to his seat. Ochako just sat in her seat for an extra few minutes, not joining in on any conversations, since odds are she would have no idea how to act.
"Such a weird dream…" Ochako muttered under her breath.
Ochako was torn from her thoughts by someone sitting on his desk.
Oh here we go… Ochako looked up, and sitting on her desk was a girl. She had long dark green hair, not totally unlike the hair currently on Ochako's hair, though it was a bit darker of a shade. It was tied in a ribbon behind her back, and she wore the normal girls' uniform.
Her face was a bit flat, but not plain. Her eyes were large and circular, and the pupils kind of reminded her of a frog's. Her legs were...significantly more muscular than the rest of her body.
"You're acting odd this morning, Midoriya." She said.
Straight to the point.
"I'm just feeling a little bit weird." Ochako responded. The girl eyed Ochako.
"You're late, not talking with anyone, you don't have your notebook out, and you haven't once mentioned the combat exercise we have today, kero."
Ochako stopped for a moment, Kero? She's acting even more and more like a frog.
"I'm just a bit tired, I guess." Ochako made the same excuse. The girl just raised an eyebrow, obviously not buying it. She was about to open her mouth to talk again when the door to the classroom opened.
"I'm here. In your seats." A man grumbled. Everyone in the class immediately obeyed, scrambling to their seats in mere moments.
"As you all know, we have combat training today. Get changed and meet All Might at test city A." His voice was very monotone and emotionless.
All Might? Since when is All Might a teacher at Yuuei?
The class didn't waste any time in hopping from their seats. Panels opened on the wall, revealing seventeen briefcases, each labelled with a number. Ochako grabbed the one that corresponded with the seat she was in and followed the flow of where everyone was going.
Ochako had nearly walked into the wrong changing room. He was glad that the girl from earlier stopped him.
"You're really out of it today. Go to the right changing room." She said.
"Oh, right." She said, walking into the other locker room and proceeded to get changed, which was really embarrassing. Ochako was pretty sure her face was hot pink, but she was facing the wall so that nobody saw her.
It took a little while to piece together the costume, but Ochako thought she got it right. A dark green and black athletic suit with long gloves that went up to the biceps (Which she was surprised at how big those muscles were). She also had iron soled boots and specially made gloves that looked like they were made for slotting something, or maybe concentrating a blast. Lastly, there was a metal mouthguard and a green mask with green bunny ears popping up.
Ochako initially had the hood up, but after seeing herself in the reflection of the tile, she saw how utterly ridiculous she looked and decided to put down the hood and let the metal mouthguard hang around her neck.
After taking forever to change, Ochako hurried out after everyone else, catching up with the group. Ochako chose to not take part in the small talk made on the way to the combat training venue for fear of saying something completely wrong and making a fool of herself.
She did, however, notice one more person that was not taking part in the group discussion. While Ochako was at the back of the group, trailing behind, there was another boy ahead of the group, taking his own pace. He had explosive blonde hair, and large grenade-looking gloves were on his arms.
They eventually made it to the place Ochako assumed was test city A. All she could see was a giant concrete wall, and the tips of skyscrapers sticking out over the top of it.
How do they have enough money to make an entire city for combat drills? Ochako couldn't even fathom how much money that would be. Certainly enough to get out of stupid Itomori
They all walked through a dark tunnel to enter the city. Ochako couldn't see the people next to her, but she could see the blinding light ahead. They continued on, stepping into the light.
Ochako was met with a perfect recreation of an urban city area. She had obviously been in a city before, but it had been years. Whilst living in Itomori, Ochako longed for the city. Being back in one, even if it was fake, was like a dream. Except for that she was already dreaming. So a dream inside of a dream?
Standing in front of the group, about ten feet away in a yellow and black striped suit was a man. He was tall, though extremely skinny. His face was angular, almost as if it were made of straight lines. He looked like a walking skeleton. He had a head of straight blonde hair that stuck up at weird angles, seemingly defying the laws of physics.
"Good morning, All Might!"
"Hey, All Might!" a few people greeted the man.
Wait...All Might? Where is he?
"Good morning, everyone. I hope you are doing well." the skeletal man responded. Except it was in All Might's voice.
It can't-that can't- that isn't All Might, is it? Ochako started to freak out a little. The people were referring to this man as All Might, though he looked noting of the sort, save for similar hair. Not only that, but he was responding to the name as well.
Is that really All Might?
"Today, I have prepared an exercise for you very similar to the first one you all did on the first week of your first year. We will be doing a hostage rescue scenario." A holographic image popped up behind the skeletal man (All Might?). It depicted two videogame-like figures outside of a building.
"The villain team will have two hostages somewhere inside the building." The hologram animated, shifting to a view of the villain team. They were inside a room, looking menacing while two people were tied up with rope on the floor.
"The rules are simple. If the villain team is incapacitated or captured with the capture tape, or if the hostages are safely recovered, then the hero team wins. If the hero team is incapacitated or captured, or if the hostages are severely injured then the villain team wins." The hologram did a little animation for each battle scenario, depending on what team won. It was kinda cute, to be honset.
"I'll split up the teams now. Remember to go beyond...PLUS ULTRA!" At the moment that the man said the last two words of Yuuei's motto, he changed. He grew bigger and his muscles expanded. Standing in front of Ochako for a moment was the man himself, All Might.
Then, he was gone with a puff of smoke, replaced by the same skeletal man, who was coughing. Ochako's breath stopped.
It's really All Might...What happened to him? Is he always like this when he's not working? Ochako let out a squeak. It was high pitched and full of surprise. All the heads around her turned to the source of the noise.
Ochako's hand flew up to her mouth, covering it with her hand. Only then did she realize that squeak was very...not manly. And she looked like a boy. Ochako flushed crimson.
"Midoriya, my boy, are you okay?" All Might asked. Ochako suppressed a second squeak.
"Yeah, sorry. You're just a little...skinnier than I remember." Her voice was much higher than she intended.
"I was trying to put on weight…" She heard All Might mumble. The entire class burst into laughter, drawing the attention away from Ochako, much to her relief.
All Might drew the teams at random, and Ochako was sort of relieved to be placed with the girl who sat on his desk earlier, who she learned was named Tsu. They were set to be the hero team, going in to capture a set of dummies that were the 'hostages'.
"We're up against Todoroki and Yaoyorozu, kero." Tsu commented, drawing Ochako from her nervousness. Tsu seemed to notice, though. "You look nervous. You never look nervous for combat training.
Tsu was right. She was nervous. Not only was it combat training, but she had no idea what her quirk even was. She thought she felt some reserve of power in the back of her mind, but that could be almost anything. Then again, it was a dream. Maybe her quirk would be whatever she wanted it to be.
"Yeah, I don't know why…" Ochako drifted off as she saw the sign above the door. It was a simple name for some fake business, but the first kanji caught her eye. It happened to be the same kanji that starts off the phrase "Who are you?". Ochako's mind raced back to the note in her notebook.
Couldn't hurt, right? I might end up waking up unexpectedly… Ochako looked around, and saw what she was looking for. The building they were in front of had a little jar full of pens. Carefully on the palm of her hand, she wrote down "Ochako".
"Are you drawing up the plan?" Tsu asked, trying to peer over Ochako's hand. She quickly closed it, concealing the name. Thinking quickly, Ochako wheeled around and shook her head.
"I had an idea but it won't work based on the height of the building." Ochako said, hoping it sounded genuine.
"Did you want to go in through the roof? I could climb up, but I don't know if you could jump that high, kero." Tsu commented/
So some kind of augmentation quirk? Ochako thought. It made sense.
START! All Might's voice boomed over the intercom. Ochako and Tsu nodded to each other, walking in the front door. They crept around the hallways, scouting for any sign of the hostages.
"How about you run ahead and scout the next floor quickly. I'll check this one. Let each other know of we see something." Tsu said. Ochako nodded.
She said quickly. Maybe that means use my quirk? Ochako still sensed the well of power in the back of her mind. Here goes nothing!
Ochako mentally reached out and grabbed the power. She felt raw, unfiltered strength flow through her limbs. Looking down, she saw red, vein-like power running up and down her arms.
Tentatively, Ochako moved her arm. She was not expecting it to move so drastically. Instead of moving forwards a few inches like she intended, her arm flew in front of her in a punching motion.
Wind whipped up, blasting from the area around Ochako. A massive shockwave broke out in front of her, tearing the walls of the building itself columns supporting the building cracked before being blown apart themselves by the force of the blast.
The wind died down, only to be replaced by a rumbling. Ochako's right arm fell limply to her side, unmoving and bruised purple. Ochako looked up to see the roof getting closer and closer.
"Oops." Ochako muttered, bracing herself for the impact as the entire building collapsed on top of her.
Well, that's it for the first chapter of this story. I'll be updating it in-between chapters of the pokemon fic, though I may have to slow down my upload schedule slightly. Uni is starting back up, and I don't know how much time I'll have to write. Who knows, it might be more time! Probably not. Anyways, this won't be a longfic like pokemon. I have a set 6-7 chapter timeline, as I am going to be going over the events of the Your Name movie with a bnha twist to it. Anyways, I'll see you all as soon as possible!
