Happy Halloween! Who can guess my costume references?
Timeline: Since this is a Halloween one-shot, it takes places sometime after the U.A. Cultural Festival arc. However, there is no way I'm spoiling my own series.
Izuku struggled to get his hair standing up. The rest had been slicked back with half a jar of gel.
"Come on, come on... there!" he exclaimed in triumph. His victory was short-lived though when he saw the results of his efforts in the mirror. Instead of two stalks forming a victorious "V", he had short twisted bunny ears.
"Aw man..." he groaned. This would have to do since he couldn't be late for class.
"Hey Deku! Nice costume!" Ochaco complimented. Izuku smiled, embarrassed. "Thank you, Uraraka. You look nice, too!"
Ochaco was dressed up as a wizard. She had a floppy pointed hat with a face designed through stitching and buttons, a short red dress with gold highlights, and a black cloak with golden borders. She also had on orange boots and wore a black thigh sock on her left leg while her right one was covered in bandages.
"Midoriya! Uraraka! Hurry before the bell rings!" Tenya called from the classroom.
Tenya was dressed up as a demon butler. He wore an elegant Victorian-style black suit and white gloves. He even put red contact lenses in.
The moment the two stepped through the door. Izuku was greeted by a "The fuck Deku!?".
"K-Kacchan! Guess we had the same idea, huh?" the teen nervously said. The blonde growled. Like Izuku, Katsuki had on an All Might hoodies but had the yellow hood up.
"Come one, man. Someone else was bound to dress up as All Might," Eijiro said.
Eijiro worse a black open vest, revealing his bare chest. He had on baggy white pants and black cloth wrapped around his waist held up with a brown leather belt. He wore black sandals and a white scarf with scale designs. He also had a red emblem painted on his right shoulder.
"Shut up Shitty Hair!" shouted Katsuki.
Aizawa strolled into the classroom and made his way to the front. "Alright everyone, settle down."
All his students turned to face him. "Just one announcement today. Tonight the school will host a Halloween event. You can go from classroom to classroom to ask for candy." As the teens grew excited, Aizawa said, "Settle down. We still have a school day to get through."
Izuku walked alongside Ochaco and Tenya down the hall. All three had bags filled halfway with a varied sort of candies.
"This is so fun! And it's great to see so many cool Halloween costumes," Ochaco said.
Izuku rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah, but it's surprising how few heroes there are. I'm a little embarrassed..."
"Hello, Mr. Deku!" The trio looked to where the small voice came from. There stood Eri who was dressed in a well-put-together costume. She wore a white capelet with a furry collar, a pink blouse, a frilly white skirt, thigh-high socks, and pink doll shoes. She had a black ribbon styled into a small bow in her hair which was fashioned into pigtails. They each were adorned with three large blue beads. She had four horns on the side of her head. The larger pair curled up, and the smaller pair curled down and backward. She also had a thin lavender tail with a fuzzy bulb at the end.
"Aww~! You're so cute!" Ochaco exclaimed.
"Yeah, super cute Eri," Izuku agreed.
"Your costume is very well-done," Tenya complimented.
Eri smiled shyly. "Thank you though I didn't make it."
Izuku looked around behind her in confusion. "Hey Eri, are you trick-or-treating alone or is Aizawa-sensei with you?" he asked.
She shook her little head. "No, actually it's-"
"Eri-chan, don't run ahead. I don't want you getting lost again."
Izuku and the others' attention went to the person who walked around the corner. The two stared at each other before Ochaco jokingly poked Izuku in the side.
"Well, you've found another hero, Deku!"
Bruce wore a long-sleeved black top, pants, and boots. He wore a dark gray wool scarf and yellow goggles resting on his forehead. He also wore his yellow utility belt around his waist.
"Sorry Mr. Batman," Eri said. She walked over to him and held onto his pant leg. "Mr. Batman is taking me trick-or-treating. He also made my costume." She looked up at the teen. "Can I go ahead? I promise to wait at the end of the hall."
Bruce nodded. "Alright, make sure not to run too fast."
Eri smiled and hurried to the nearest door. Izuku then noticed something.
"Hey, Wayne, why don't you have a bag?"
Bruce turned to the other teen. "I don't really like sweets. I'm just looking after Eri-chan."
Ochaco giggled. "Aww, you really care about her so much. It's so cute," she cooed.
Bruce quickly turned away and buried his face in his scarf. Izuku swore his cheeks were red.
"Don't be silly. It's just the considerate thing to do," he replied.
He is an absolute tsundere, Izuku and Tenya both thought.
"Anyway, I have to get back to Eri-chan," Bruce said as he began walking away to the little girl. "Happy Halloween you three," he called over his shoulder.
The trio smiled after him.
"Happy Halloween."
