Academia Time: Izuku, a my hero academia/僕のヒーローアカデミア fanfic

Academia Time: Izuku

Hello, and welcome to another new Boku no Hero Academia fanfic, and this is an experiment that I thought of giving it a try, as this fic is inspired from past series that has themes involving a battle royal, such as the Fate/Stay Night series and its spin-offs, in which several individuals fight it out to win and get a wish, hence the battle to the death.

Given my recent exposure to Hero Academia, I thought of using the characters here as basis, but in light of this fic, I decided to do an AU type, in which the Hero Academia characters will have an origin story where the UA Academy do not exist, and have them gear up in a similar vein to Battle Royal.

Okay, so this new fic sounds similar to another Hero Academia fanfic that I also uploaded, but this one will be different, as the setting is quite…different...in plot and characterization. You'll soon find out why.

Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugo will be the main characters here, but other characters will be involved, and have their own original settings and motives.

Yup, more Academia characters will be on hand here, and this will spice things up, but you'll soon see where this would lead to.

Well then, o read on and enjoy!

Ch. 1: Prologue

Japan.

The country that is located within South East Asia, quite near different Asian countries such as China, Taiwan and the Philippines, is seen and that country is ruled by the Diet, and are handled by the Emperor and the Prime Minister. After their defeat at World War II, the country began to change for the better, and for several decades Japan vastly improved, mostly in the technological department yet their culture and values remained the same, as most Japanese citizens remained hospitable to visitors, residents and tourists alike.

The scene then zoomed further and you can see that the scene shows that the place being shown is Tokyo, which is bustling with people who are walking the busy streets, some riding vehicles, and others riding on bicycles. There are several types of people seen on the streets; adults, children, and even infants being carried by their parents. Businessmen, businesswomen, students, policemen, all kinds of persons are seen, and they were doing their usual activities as if they do not mind it.

Shops are open and the merchants are selling their merchandise and are enticing people to buy them in hopes of earning money. It was a typical day and it seems that people today are lively and felt that their lives are full of blessings and couldn't ask for anything more, as some are happy with stable jobs, students studying in the best schools, and more, and some even chatted with one another feeling that today is a good day.

"Hey!"

"Nice day, isn't it?"

"Today is a good day..."

"I love my job..."

"Life is so good..."

"I wish I have a good day..."

"Lots of money..."

"Lots of girls..."

The scene later shifts to a certain area, where business is thriving the area is frequently being besieged by customers which are a mix of adults and teenagers, and they appeared to be avid collectors, as they are looking and buying second-hand items which are technological in nature, and their reasons for patronizing the said shops are purely economical in nature - cheaper prices and practicality. You can see several shops selling HOT items for cheaper prices, such as smartphones, android tablets and even laptops, and despite being second-hand items, they appeared to be in good working conditions, and some of the customers are willing to buy them as long as their desired items are working fine as well as to save money for budgetary reasons, and the merchants are using subtle means in enticing passing customers.

"Hello...please by our items..."

"They are cheaper..."

"...they are in good working condition..."

"You can try them if you like..."

"I promise you will like them..."

"I promise you will get your money's worth..."

"Here are the items on our display..."

"Pick the one you like..."

The area in question turns out to be Akihabara, and the area is thriving and many merchants set up shops to attract passing customers and entice them to buy their products by showing the items and offered cheaper prices while assuring them that the items are in good working condition, and their marketing strategy worked as some passing customers were intrigued after hearing that so e gadgets are being sold in cheaper prices, and they began asking the merchants what itens do they sell, and the merchants showed to the customers the items they are selling, ranging from smartphones to android tablets and even laptops.

Then the scene shifts to another nearby shop, where a merchant is also selling second-hand items, but unlike the other shops, this merchant is selling something else and is catering avid collectors, and the scene shifts inside the shop where you can see the items being sold, which turn out to be classic console units and games, all being displayed on the shelves, and one by one you can see the following consoles being on display, which are:

- Nintendo Famicom

- Super Famicom

- Sega Mega Drive

- Game Boy Color

- Game Boy Advance

- Neo Geo

- Sony Playstation

- Sega Saturn

- Nintendo 64

In a matter of minutes customers passed by the shop, and most of them are avid collectors and fans of video games, and they were immediately intrigued by the items on display and they looked at the items, as some appeared to be unaware that such classical consoles actually existed, and they began asking the merchants if those consoles and its games are really something to be owned, which the merchant nodded and assured to them that the classic games are RARE, and are fun to play with, saying that even with popular games today that are released on current consoles such as the Sony Playstation 4, the Microsoft X-Box One and the Nintendo Wii, the consoles on display are even COOLER due to its nostalgia factor.

"Are they really cool compared to today's consoles?"

"Yes...they ate cool..."

"Seriously?"

"Yes, sir...they are the very first games...and they are the popular ones in its heydays...and they are RARE to find..."

"Hmm..."

"Would you like to try them...?"

"..."

"I promise you will not regret it..."

By then a passing customer passed by the shop, and he appeared to be a businessman in his mid 20's, and saw the items on display and became intrigued by it and went inside the shop, lookin at the consoles on display, and began inquiring about which console is the best to purchase, as he is wondering which one he should choose, and the merchant obliges as he patiently explained each of the consoles' abilities and specialties, and soon he recommended to the customer to buy the Super Famicom, saying that aside from having a lot of RARE games, which are in cartridge form, it was the most popular and well-sold consoles in its heydays, and even said that several games are colorful in terms of graphics and that there a lot of popular games to choose from.

The customer appeared to be enticed yet he wanted to be sure, so he asked the merchant to give him a demonstration, and the merchant obliges, and brought out the Super Famicom and attached it to a flat-screen TV and inserted a cartridge and activated it, and the customer watched in awe seeing that the merchant was not lying, and after testing out several games, the customer is pleased and agreed to purchase the console, and the merchant happily obliges as he prepared a box to put the Super Famicom in and said that as his way of showing thanks, he will give 50 Super Famicom games for 70% discount, which the customer is pleased with this.

"Really? You will sell the games at 70% discount?"

"Yes, sir..."

"Thanks!"

"Please choose the games that you like..."

"I'll take these..."

"Here you go..."

"Thanks!"

"Have a good day, sir..."

After that, the customer got what he wanted, paid the merchant and left, and the other customers were awed in seeing that the merchant had sold a popular classic console to an adult, and they began asking the merchant for opinion on which console is the best besides the Super Famicom, and merchant began to show out the other consoles and offered to show its power and the number of games that are available, and after seeing them, the customers lined up and brought out their money and ordered their desired consoles and its games.

"I want the Sega Mega Drive!"

"The Neo Geo!"

"Give me the Nintendo 64!"

"I want the Game Boy Advance!"

"I want the Nintendo Famicom!"

"I want all of it!"

"Everyone...calm down...for a line and I will accommodate you all..."

"Hurry up, then!"

Meanwhile, the scene shifts inside what appeared to be an abandoned mall, where 13 teenagers, mostly high school students, are laid on the floor, seemingly sedated, and it appeared that they were brought here for a reason, as they are placed there through unknown means, and the sedated teenagers appeared that they were abducted rather easily, as their bodies bore no signs of struggle, as their clothings appeared intact.

After some time, the teenagers, most of them first-year high school students, slowly woke up, and seemingly got a headache of some sorts, and appeared disoriented for a reason, as they appeared clueless and soon became bewildered upon seeing that they are inside the seemingly abandoned mall-like area, with no one else except for the teenagers themselves.

"Huh?"

"What the...?"

"Where am I...?"

"What is this place...?"

"What am I doing here...?"

"What's going on...?"

"How did I...?"

"..."

"Is this some kind of a joke...?"

"Hey!"

"This ain't funny..."

"..."

The teenagers glanced at each other, looking skeptical at seeing their fellow teenagers, and for some reason, they do not know each other, and having no recollection of what happened and/or how they got here.

The teenagers in question are identified as:

- Izuku Midoriya

- Katsuki Bakugo

- Tenya Iida

- Mei Hatsume

- Minoru Mineta

- Shoto Todoroki

- Neito Monoma

- Ochako Uraraka

- Nirengeki Soda

- Pony Tsunotori

- Hiryu Rin

- Kosei Tsuburaba

- Tsuyu Asui

As the 13 teens slowly recovered, they were bewildered as to what they are doing here, and even wondered how they got here and who brought them here, as they realized that they have no recollection of what transpired earlier, and what their previous activities are like.

Some became worried while others did not appeared to be bothered by their predicaments.

"Huh?"

"What the...?"

"Who are you...?"

"What is this place...?"

"What am I doing here...?"

"What's going on...?"

"How did I...?"

"..."

"Is this some kind of a joke...?"

"Hey!"

"This ain't funny..."

"..."

Suddenly, a rather blackish light shone, where a voice of a man spoke, and told the teenagers that they are here to participate in a battle royale, which is a fight to the death, and only one will emerge the winner, with a time limit of three days.

This however, did not sit well with the rest, with half of them voicing their opposition, unwilling to abide by the mysterious figure's rule of the upcoming battle.

The mysterious figure ignored the complaints of the teens who are against senseless killings.

"You want us to what?"

"Fight each other?"

"To the death?"

"Fight each other till only one is alive, you say?"

"For three days?"

"..."

"That's cruel!"

"And murderous!"

The mysterious figure nevertheless said that the battle will push through regardless, and Toga smirked yet voiced her disappointment as she lamented that she does not have any tools to do the killing, yet the mysterious voice said that she and the rest can gain the means to do so, and instructed them to go outside the building and they will see why.

The teenagers walked out of the building to see what the mysterious figure is saying, and upon stepping outside, they were shocked at what they just saw, half of them are speechless while others were in disbelief at what they just saw.

"Huh?"

"What the...?"

"This has to be some kind of a joke..."

"What's with that...?"

"I don't like this...?"

"What's going on...?"

"How did...?"

"..."

"Is this for real...?"

"Hey!"

"This ain't funny..."

"..."

To Be Continued... .

Hope you like this chapter, and while it does not show any action, it is just the start, as the characters of Hero Academia are all here, which includes Himiko Toga, and though why is she here among the rest of the Academia characters, the answer will surface sooner than you think, despite her being portrayed a villain.

So most of the characters here are from Class 1-A and !-B, but something is amiss here, as they appeared to have been brought here for some reason, and what's more, they do not seem to recognize each other, as if they are total strangers.

The battle royal thing comes here, as the mysterious abductor tells them that they have to battle each other to the death, with only one winner to come on top, and must accomplish this in three days, which is quite similar to the time limit battle in Fate/Stay Night series.

How will the characters, Izuku included, react to this, and what are their reactions like the moment they saw something outside the building which left most of them speechless and in disbelief?
