Authors Note: This is my first Fic in a while so I'm sorry that it will be pretty rusty at first. I use the Point Of View style writing or "POV" so it will be describing the story through the character name "POV" is written next to. Anything in quotation marks " ex giv" will be the characters speaking. I will leave details after some quotes to make it easier to tell who speaks but please tell me if I need to add more so the dialogue won't be as confusing.

Another note is that anything is single quotes/apostraphe ' ex giv ' will be the characters reading to themselves like viewing a letter or text message

and finally NO quotes or apostraphe's means the character is speaking internally to themselves. Hope this helps clarify any confusion and I hope you are ok with the rusty start. I can promise it will soon get better and thanks for stopping by

*Summer break 2nd year*

After rescuing Eri and stopping overhaul class 1-a had a fairly normal school year as far as being a super hero school goes and before they knew it, summer break was here.

Izuku POV

"All right class is now over, make sure not to break any limbs while on break"

*I couldn't help but to give a light smile*

"You all take care now, don't go overboard with the parties." Aizawa said as he walked out and shut the door.

I have way too much to do than to worry about fun plans for summer.

*bell rings*

*Intense mumbling* "if I schedule my sleep periods in the day rather than night, I could use night time patrols and crime fighting as my physical training and bettering my fighting style effectively killing two birds wi.." *gets with with pencil*

"Hey Deku, come on! Didn't you hear, class is out!" Ochako was being as happy as ever, made me feel relaxed and a bit embarrassed about my mumbling habit still being around.

*All of Class 1-A starts standing up to leave but then groups up for a bit of chat to plan what they want to do over break*

"Yo bakugo, wanna go train at the gym with me and fat gum? We could use a guy to help build our defensive resistance" Kirishima was being enthusiastic about his training since fat gum was taking him as a side kick.

"You mean I get to beat people up with explosions and not get in trouble? Aw hell ya sign me up" Bakugo always did get along with kirishima, although I think it was cause there was finally someone who could understand part of the way he thinks.

"Midoriya, Uraraka! I was wondering if I could talk to you for a second." Iida came rushing at us but we've gotten used to being sprinted at by a dude who can out run a car.

"Yeah sure what's up?" Me and uraraka answered the same way I couldn't help but smile and try to hide me blushing a bit

"I was wondering if you would want to go to my families beach resort this summer. They're having an event for two weeks where people will compete in a tournament of puzzles and battles with quirks."

"We do it as a way of inviting people to our family agency that have potential and I know that if you want to be scouted that this can be another good chance by a better agency."

I didn't know what to think, this sounded like a great opportunity to make a better name for myself as the next symbol of peace. I just didn't think about how that would effect my training schedule with all might and plans on changing it up.

"I um, kind.."

"RESORT!" Almost all of 1-A roared

Being Iida, he does talk quite loud and didn't notice all his class mates listening in on his shouting.

"Tournaments? Puzzle and battle types, no way dude, can I join too Iida?" Kaminiari was hyped up for something like this to come up as he had no summer plans.

"More battles huh (looks at Midoriya) well I wanna fucking go too" said bakugo who started to smirk.

"That's all fine, my family asked me to invite as many friends that wanted to go as the tournament is a chance for everyone to compete in the ways they know how, we hold it with 3 other agencies so it's not ours alone that will be watching" announced Iida

Tokoyami and todoroki were listening but it didn't intrigue their interests until "There are also prizes, first place for the strategy tournament gets them a condo from the resort to live in, and also a 100,000 yen check" todoroki probably wanted to get his mom out of the mental hospital and found this as a great opportunity to get her somewhere she can relax without having to worry about endeavor, and tokoyami was more intrigued by the cash prize because he wanted something for his hero costume to make dark shadow recover faster but the support course couldn't make it because it costed too much.

"Look Iida, as much as.." *deku's whispering cuts off as everyone draws closer* "and the first place of the battle tournament gets 1 year of financial support for the hero agency they choose or make!" Iida had lit a bomb he didn't know was there. Everyone rushed to him to get more information, they all seemed interested as this was a chance where they could make it for themselves. He was giving details about how the two week event started the next Friday. Just one week from when school finished.

The events were held at night around 9:00pm

"Iida, I...I can't go." I felt as if I had punched him straight in the heart because I know he said he wanted us to grow stronger as hero's together and this was the chance to finally be sharpening our skills again.

"What!" Everyone was surprised someone like me would pass up such a chance. After all it was a resort that had accommodations and lodging paid for and he didn't even have to compete if he didn't want to.

"The hell does that mean deku, don't tell me your chickening out of another fight with me you bug" kaachan was still teasing me but not to the same extent as before, I think we've gotten a bit of respect building up over the time but this moment just broke down that wall.

"I just have a lot of training to do, I'm sorry but I can't" I activated full cowl and bolted to the door, opened it and before I left I heard uraraka tell me to wait.

I shouldn't have left like that, I turned my phone off but I bet if I turned it back on they would just keep calling me. "What time is it?" I looked at a candy shop I was passing by on the way home and it was... 4:30(pm) "Oh no oh no, I'm late!" I promised all might I'd have met up with him 30 minutes ago. I didn't think I spent so long after class ended at 3:30. Time flew by quick.

I ran to the beach and got their out of breath to all might looking at me like i was insane. "I...i...i..." i couldn't speak, i was out of breath from a full speed full cowl sprint. "Kid, don't push yourself, remember last time you almost blacked out from over working your muscles. Anyways you're late" he said with a big grin on his face, he didn't seem to mind, he was just too calm and care free to be angry. "Yeah i...I'm sorry. Whew! Iida kinda invited me to go to a resort that his family has for an event they hold every year." All might turned to me and said

"woah a resort, wait I think I know the one, they hold those tournaments where you either battle in 1v1's to the top or the one's where they have you put in obstacle courses that require you to solve puzzles to progress right!" All might sure seemed informed.

"How did you know?" I didn't think this was a big thing, I knew of ingenium and the previous Iida's but this wasn't something talked about online much.

"They had that stuff going on since back when I was first starting off as a rookie." He pointed at himself with a big smile "takes me back, I won the battle tournament in my first year of high school but man, the place there is beautiful and I had a blast."

"Woah since you were barely starting off with one for all!" I couldn't believe it was that much of an event, or that he won against everyone else there as a first year. Wait, he's been able to use one for all since he got it so all that combat training with Gran Torino probably got him that spot.

"Yeah, the times sure do fly by fast, so when is it? Have you packed up yet?" He asked me that and I froze

"Wait wait wait, what?! But what about the training, the schedule, me mastering all of one for all! This is such a huge setback" before I knew it I was mumbling about everything being thrown off.

"Look kid, you can't just go through life worrying about everything or you'll pass by every opportunity that makes the life you lived great" I didn't expect such wise words to be coming at a time of me needing to be rushing and working my way up.

"Just think, how much time do you have to spend with your friends if you're wasting it overthinking about your future, I know you need to control one for all and fast but you have to make sure that you think about yourself every once in a while. The crazy selflessness that was in me and that I see in you is great, but then you'll end up making the same mistake I did one day and it all goes down hill from there. All for One and Chisaki are gone, but tomura is still out there and so are others. I don't want you to waste life the way I did in over complicating the way I saved people. Sure I helped everyone I could, but in 70% of those situations other heroes were there that could have solved it no problem but I just did it faster."

"I see, I just don't understand why this would be such an opportunity if I could spend more time with you, the time you and I don't have left..." I wanted to start tearing up but that habit had to go, and has to stay away. I can only smile from now on

"I get it kid, you don't want me to be gone and leaving you to figure things out alone because I'm the only one who understands you." So he does understand why I

"But that's also the reason you should go. Your friends are going right, knowing Young Iida he probably shouted it out loud and everyone else wanted in right!" He was smiling bright again

"How did you know?" It's like he was there

"You have them midoriya, im not the only one you should fall back on and rely upon. I taught you what i could about one for all and what it means to be a hero, what you do with that power is all up to you. There are times that I won't be able to guide you yes, but when those times come you should look upon those friends who also understand you and that can help you in those times."

He's right, I can't just keep coming and throwing all my problems onto him. Thinking back, all the times I've gone overboard and broken my limbs, he's probably been blaming it on himself for giving me that power to begin with. I need to learn to rely on others and not just myself. I don't need to be dependent on them but if I keep going overboard *Flashback to doctor's room* "midoriya if this happens say, 2 or 3 more times, you better prepare yourself to live with your arms paralyzed" *cut back* all of my training will have gone to waist if I end up with unusable limbs or an injury like all mights. At least until I can control 100% or however much that makes me strong enough to protect others and not leave me worrying about myself.

"So I guess I'm going!?" I said unsure about myself and I received a smile and a thumbs up from all might himself.

Before I knew it I had jumped in to a whole scene of events that would make this one of my best decisions yet.
