Episode 1 Izuku Midoriya's Origins
The screen showed a young boy with green eyes, messy dark green hair and four symmetrical freckles on his cheeks crying on screen.
"Deku!", "Midoriya!" most of class 1-A exclaimed in shock ,well anger in bakugo's case, as the they were surprised at Izuku really being the main character not that they didn't like him, on the contrary, he's extremely likeable and amusing to watch. The teacher weren't as shocked as they could see the potential and drive in this particular student.
"Why are you being so mean Kacchan?" asked the crying child Izuku.
The green showed child Izuku standing protectively in front of a crying boy on the ground. The screen shifted to show three boys, with a young boy with Ash blond spiky hair and explosions coming off, and the two boys in the back activating their quirks of wings as well extendable fingers.
"Even though you're quirkless...you're pretending to be a hero, Deku?" Said the child Bakugo as he and his two friends took threatening steps towards child Izuku.
'What?' most of the class 1-A and 1-B thought as they didn't expect that Bakugo was such a bully even at such a young age, as well as what he meant by calling Izuku quirkless.
'Quirkless? Impossible.' Todoroki thought to himself as he narrowed his eyes at the screen, pondering on why Bakugo was calling Izuku quirkless when he clearly has a strong quirk
Izuku's current voice was heard throughout the room from the screen, "All men are not created equal, This was the reality I learned about society at the age of four... And that was my first and last setback" as the scene shifted to child Izuku being beat up by Bakugo and his goons.
"Bakugo!" , "Not cool, man" "You're such a bully!" most of the class 1-A and B yelled shocked as they knew he had anger issues but didn't expect him to be so violent as a kid.
"That is isn't really the attitude of someone aspiring to be a hero should have, Young Bakugo " said Principal Nezu with his usual cheerful tone coming out a bit stricter than usual.
" He right Bakugo, you better change attitude because, if you don't it lead you in to deep trouble." OB said.
"Tchh" Bakugo clicked his tongue and looked away from everyone.
The scene shifted to what seemed to be current day Izuku running down a busy street with upbeat energetic music playing in the background. It then showed Izuku watching a huge, shark-like human raging on top of train tracks holding up traffic.
" Is this the début of Mt. Lady?!" yelled an excited Mineta
"Yup" said an excited Izuku at the thought of seeing pro heroes fight, mostly getting over the discomfort brought on by those flashbacks.
"Lucky bastard" spat a jealous Mineta as he glared at Izuku for being able to see the gorgeous heroine in person and on her début no less.
The class 1-A and B sweat-dropped as Mina, Jiro and based on the position of her uniform, presumably Toru glared at Mineta as they figured he was jealous due to perverse reasons and not hero adoration.
Mineta then gets a slap on the back of the head. "Ow! Who did that?!" Mineta shouted. " Do that again and next time it will be what makes you a man." Omarion threaten Mineta and giving off a red aura, as a vine want back into his arm. Mineta was so scared that he grabbed his manly hooded while shaking like a leaf. All of the guys expect Kevin and Mike, made a promise to not piss Omarion off.
Omarion, Kevin, and Mike then disappeared and then reappeared right in front of everyone. Omarion had a guitar and a microphone in front of him, Kevin had a guitar and a microphone in front of him too, and Mike had a drum set in front of him.
The Intro then plays and All Might is shown from different angles before showing him from behind in front of a glowing space. with OB, Kev, and Mike playing along
I do not own the song
"Whoa" said most of the classes with stars in there eyes
"No way, They know how to play instrument too" Kaminari asked to no one in particular with Jiro beside him bobbing her head to the beat of the music and hopping to talk Omarion to teach her how to play song too.
"So cool!" Exclaimed Kirishima and Sero said with stars in their eyes.
Midoriya's face is shown looking up in aww.
You see the sun rise. A new day is upon you. You bite your nails and knees start to tremble.
The image panes out to show him kneeling, sparkles all around him before standing up. All Might is shown again in a superhero pose
The time is upon you to show them what you can do
Midoryia reaches out his hand towards All Might, and it cuts back to a close up of All Might from behind.
and soon they will know that
Midoriya reaching out to All Might with All might turning to face the screen
The Day Has Come!
An image of each of Class 1-A well as in their hero costume for all to see, pop up one by one, pausing only to show a sign reading My Hero and then once again to show another sign reading Academia. Only to stop on title screen reading My Hero Academia.
"We look so cool!" Exclaimed Mina.
"So Manly!" shouted Kirishima in happiness.
"Did you all see me? I looked magnificent!" Said Aoyoma with pride at how splendid he looked on-screen.
" Hey where is class 1-B!" someone from class 1-B shouted.
A raining street is shown.
Late into the night I hear storming.
The camera pans down to show Midoriya on a bridge.
An end to the rain is what I prey and I'm hoping. Now I feel the pressure of the city. Oh. How it eats me whole!
Midoriya looks down before the camera shows a close up of Midoriya, he is sad and soaking wet as he starts walking.
"Why do you look so sad?" Hagakure asks Midoriya who just looks at his lap.
"Ya, and what's with these lyrics? I mean I'm loving the beat but the lyrics are sad." Jiro comments.
Midoriya is shown walking looking down as all of his notebooks pass by at his side.
So many names and faces. Sleepless nights spent in unknown places and everyday I walk straight into the great unknown!
"Deku, are those your notebooks? You really had a lot." Uraraka noted.
"I've been keeping those for as long as I can remember. They mean a lot to me." Izuku said embarrass
The notebooks stop and just his feet are shown as he walks before he stops. All his notebooks are shown in a quick transition before a young Midoriya and Bakugo are show with a black bar separating them.
I'm not to blame! I gonna take a stand.
Suddenly Midoriya and Bakugo switch sides and are shown back to back, now older. Midoryia looks really sad.
You say my name! I'm telling you reach out and
Suddenly it zooms in on their faces, Midoriya looking really determined. They both grit their teeth before being shown in their hero costumes both look mad before their fits are shown meeting in a powerful punch that explodes.
Finally take my hand!
Tomura Shigaraki was reaching out to the screen, still covered in hands.
The students and even a few teachers gasped at the villain's appearance, his one visible eye sending chills down their spines.
A close up of All Might's fist is shown before you see a full image of him punching towards the camera. The angle then changes to show a ton of enemy's getting swept away by the force of All Might's punch.
Colliding fists!
Nomu is shown before All Might punches again and he and All Might are shown fighting.
they're what's gonna make you!
Kurogiri is shown, his shadow getting closer to camera, before it changes to Eraserhead in the midst of battle.
You grit your teeth or they're gonna break you! The time upon you to show them what you can do. You're breaking the mold to show you're not them!
Midoriya is shown running before Uraraka, Iida, Mineta, Tsuyu, Todoroki, and Kirishima are all shown in their hero costumes running while using their powers.
Will we break through? I don't know don't know. The bells are ringing come out and play now.
"That's us!" Kirishima exclaimed. Bakugo smiled. "I look awesome in my hero costume!" he said
The time upon you to show them what you can do.
Midoriya is shown in his hero costume also running before punching the camera. His fist is shown shifting back and forth between his own fist and All Might's.
and soon they will know that The Day Has Come!
Everyone seemed a little confused at that, sure Midoriya's power was like All Might's but it wasn't exactly the same...
The whole class is shown in pairs before an image of the whole class in their hero costumes in front of the school is shown all posing prepared for battle. The music stops, the opening ends. and Omarion, Kevin, and Mike disappeared and reappeared back in their seats.
"So cool!" Mina said as she took out her cellphone to snap a picture of the entire class in there hero suits.
"Dude did you see All Might fighting around 20 guys?!" yelled Sero
"Yeah, but did you also see Mr. Aizawa do the same? Who knew he could be so manly!" shouted Kirishima
"Ah Aizawa your class is so youthful" Midnight a.k.a Nemuri Kayama said to Shota Aizawa with one hand on her face while All Might did his signature laugh as the students stared at the teachers in admiration.
"Wow Deku who knew you could look so cool" Uraraka cheerfully exclaimed to the boy next to her.
'Whoa! I looked so cool, we all did' He thought to himself while looking at all his classmates animatedly talking about what they saw, Although his face immediately became red with steam coming from his ears from hearing Uraraka's comment on him, He sighed in relief as luckily she didn't see him freaking out to the fact a girl was complementing him. But Omarion saw the whole thing and chuckled to himself.
Izuku's voice began to narrate " It all Began in China, in Qingqing City, with news of a baby giving off a shining light." The screen then showed a man with the label 'Papa' freaking out about his baby shining.
Everyone laughed or chuckled with even the stoic Todoroki and Aizawa, cracking a small smile at the nervous father.
"I remember when my first activated. It was quite memorable for everyone" said a cheerful Toru Hagakure reminiscing fondly when her quirk activated.
"No doubt..." the class 1-A and B muttered in unison with a sweat-drop behind their heads, as they all collectively imagined a set of parents checking up on their kid and only to see her vanish, with the only trace being an invisible floating diaper.
The clip then changes to show many different children with different powers looking shocked.
Ever since then, superpowers were discovered in various places, and time passed without the cause being identified.
The Earth is shown before being blocked by the moon.
" Before we knew it, the supernatural became normal, and dreams became reality."
The moon moves and the Earth is once again shown, this time with the sun shining brightly behind it. A cap flows over the camera before All Might can be seen can be seen walking down a tunnel.
"It's All Might!" most of both classes calls out.
" The world has become a superhuman society, and about 80% of the world's population now has some kind of special trait."
"You really know your stuff Midoriya." Shoji comments. Midoriya blushed and rubbed the back of his head.
"W-Well, I was really into all things hero related, so I did a lot of research..." Izuku trailed off.
All Might stopped in front of a large door before it opened to a bright light. When the door finally opened his cape start flying behind him.
"Our streets looked like scenes from comic books. As city's swirled with chaos and confusion, a new profession dominated our collective consciousness."
The screen turned pure white before showing the humongous man once again, roaring into the sky. He then destroyed a pylon sending it careening down to the civilians below. Death Arms could then be seen running towards the falling debris catching it as the music picked up.
"It was an age of heroes."
The students cheered a little, seeing the pro hero at work. It was something they all got a kick out off.
In the back the teachers were all considering how they'd personally take down the huge villain.
"Oh nice! Way to go Death Arms!"
"The punching hero! I wish I had a quirk that made me super strong."
The hero could be seen struggling a little with the heavy weight but he was managing to hold it. The screen then turned blue as the hero got an introduction card similar to Midoriya's.
This time the students cheered properly for the hero, getting into the show now.
"Yeah, super strength would be an awesome quirk! Could you imagine?" Sero spoke up, impressed. Everyone agreed with him.
Suddenly a stream of water shot past the civilians keeping them from getting any closer to the scene. The camera then panned along to show the hero Backdraft.
"Everyone please stay back, this area is far too dangerous!"
"Woah, it's the rescue specialist! Backdraft is here. He'll make sure we're ok!"
At this the hero also got an introduction card.
The camera then finally showed Midoriya again, excitedly trying to see past everyone and hopping all over the place.
"This guy most be pretty desperate to go fullmonster in front of everyone middle of the city."
"Just some amateur, stole someone's bag."
"A quirk like that and he's just some petty thief?"
"What a waste of a quirk." Gran Torino sighed sadly.
"Yes, it's a shame that someone with such a strong power would waste it on something like this." OB said shaking his head.
Midoriya finally started pushing past people to get to the front of the crowd with an amazed look on his face.
"I got held up. Trains out. Another villain. I'm not sure when I gonna make it into the office."
"Sadly it seems events like these are becoming more and more common. It's affecting people's ability to do their jobs." Ectoplasm said, unhappy with how their work affected civilians.
"huh?!"
Suddenly a bunch of girls shrieked in excitement as another hero flow overhead.
"AHH, IT'S KAMUI, WE'RE YOU'RE BIGGEST FANS!"
"Oh yeah! The fan girls, willing to do anything for you, even-MFHNM!" Mineta was suddenly cut off by a vine that came from OB.
"One more word and it will be a lot worse than a vine." OB warned him.
The pro hero ran along the roof of a bus before launching into air towards the villain. He landed on the bridge then leapt again, narrowly avoiding being crushed by the behemoth. He finally ended up high in the air above the monster.
"Get away from me or I'll break you toothpick!" The Thief yelled.
Midoriya finally made his way to the front of the crowd, beside a man who looked to be later on in life.
"Oh wow, this is gonna be good."
The monster tried to slap the hero away but he swung away to a nearby pylon.
"It's Kamui Woods." Izuku said.
"You really love this profession, don't you Midoriya?" Asked Jirou with an amused smirk at her classmate's excitement. Midoriya's response was merely to blush a little.
The hero got an introduction similar to those before him.
"He may be new but he's making a big name for himself!" Izuku said.
"One look at that dopey grin and I know what you are, A fan boy!" the man beside him said.
"Definitely one." Mina said allowed, causing Both class to laugh and Midoriya's blush to get darker.
In All Might's mind an amused thought went by. 'You have no idea.'
"uh, sorta..."
Midoriya looked away slightly embarrassed. The camera then cut to Kamui Woods running down a train tracks and jumping out the way out the villains fist once again. He then swung around the villains arm and landed on an overpass.
"Assault, Robbery and illegal use of powers during rush hour traffic. You are the incarnation of evil."
At that all the teachers and pro heroes looks shifted to being unimpressed. His actions may have been bad but hardly was he deserving of that title.
Kamui stuck his fist out as he started to activate his quirk.
"There! His special move!"
"Come on Tree Man, show us something flashy!"
"The preemptive..."
"Binding..."
Midoriya and Kamui then started to talk in sync.
"laquered chain prison!"
'Yep, definitely a fanboy!'
"Canyon canon!"
Suddenly before Kamui's attack could strike a gigantic woman came rushing in out of nowhere and kicked the villain in the side of the head. The camera cut to Midoriya and each of the heroes who all looked up in surprise and shock.
"Hmph, it's a pretty rude way to debut if you ask me." Uraraka said, unimpressed with the massive woman.
Kamui stood there in confusion. The camera was behind Mt. Lady as she stood up. Suddenly beside Midoriya a bunch of photographers showed up chanting 'money shot'.
"Piece of cake for the worlds next hottest hero. Hello everyone, I'm Mt. Lady and you don't have to worry about this bum anymore."
As she said that she stuck out her butt towards the crowd.
"Ugh, creeps." Jirou said referring to the photographers.
"Yeah. She's no better letting them take those kinds of photos." Kendo added.
The photographers continued to chant as the camera cut back to Midoriya. The man beside him had a dopey look on his face but Midoriya was focused on the notebook in his hands.
Kamui woods was shown again.
"Wait, she's getting all the credit?!"
The new hero then started to shrink down while waving to the crowd as Midoriya could be heard in the background again.
"With the rise of superpowers came an explosive increase in criminal activity. While governments where stuck trying to figure out how to reform laws with quirks in mind, courageous people started performing heroic acts to keep our cities safe."
"Jeez Midoriya, how much do you know about quirks and heroes?!" Asked Tetsutetsu
"Too fucking much." Replied Bakugou before Midoriya could say anything.
Mt lady could be seen standing beside the villain she captured waving to the civilians.
"Protecting us from villains who abused their powers for evil. With overwhelming public support, heroes found an official place as peace keepers over seen by the government. Those who performed the best were paid the most and got the fame and glory. Their careers depended on their ability to stay in the spotlight."
Suddenly Mt. Lady's face changed to one a lot creepier.
'What the hecks with that expression?!'
Midoriya was the seen standing on the street muttering to himself
"Gigantification, huh? Well she's certainly got the looks and attitude to be a crowd favourite and her quirk is really showy but it'll be hard for her to get around much in the city without damaging lots of things. That means she might not be very useful."
"Thats...actually a really a good point. It's neat to actually be able to tell what you're muttering about." Uraraka said. Everyone had to agree with that.
"hey, whats that fanboy? You taking notes over there? You want to be a hero to huh?"
Midoriya looked towards the man in surprise before a bright smile made its way onto his face.
"Yes! More than anything!"
A title card showed up, showing the text 'Izuku Midoriya: Origin.'
"hm, I suppose this is your origin story." Todoroki observed.
A middle school class was shown, their teacher talking to them.
"so as third year students it's time to start thinking seriously about your future and what you want to do with your lives!"
Among his classmates Midoriya could be seen writing in his notebook.
"I could hand out your career aptitude tests but...why bother?! I know you all want to go to the hero track."
At that the class cheered.
"Hmph, well that's hardly practical!" Gran Torino said.
The entire class was shown using their powers.
"Yes yes! You've got some very impressive quirks but no power usage is allowed in school! Get ahold of yourselves."
A familiar voice then spoke up. The camera focused on bakugou's leg before panning up to his face.
"hey, teach! Don't lump me in with this bunch of losers, i'm the real deal but these guys will be lucky to end up sidekicks to some busted d-lister."
After he said this, Bakugou got his introduction.
The students did cheer but it was a lot more subdued considering how the blonde was acting.
After he said this, many of the students were shown agitated by his actions.
"You think you're better than us Katsuki?!"
"Lets go! I'll take you all on."
"That young man's behaviour is quite terrible." Gran Torino said shaking his head.
"That's Bakugou." Mike said simply.
The teacher looked at a paper in his hand before speaking up.
"huh, you've got impressive test results. Maybe you will get into UA high."
That seemed to shock the class.
"He's gonna try for the national school?!"
"That school has a 0.2 acceptance rate."
At this point Midoriya placed his head down on his desk.
"It's impossible to get into!"
Those last few statements left a feeling of pride in the students, despite the odds they'd all managed to get in.
"Why are you hiding yourself Deku? You managed to get in as well!" Uraraka asked.
"Just watch." Was all Midoriya could say.
"That's exactly why it's the only place worthy of me."
The blonde then finally stopped leaning back on his seat and jumped on top of his desk.
"I aced all of the mock tests. I'm the only one at this school who stands a chance at getting in. I'll end up more popular than All Might himself and be the richest hero of all time! People all across the world will know who I am and it all starts with UA high."
"Well...that's quite the dream you have there young Bakugou! Good luck getting more popular than me though." All Might said with a small laugh.
"It'll happen! Just you watch." Bakugou shouted at his teacher. Suddenly he sank down in his seat though as he realised something. If it was that day then...
"Oh yeah, Midoriya. Don't you want to go to UA too?"
Midoriya squeaked as Bakugou was shown in front of him frozen in shock. Slowly Midoriya looked up to see everyone staring before...they all started laughing their heads off.
"Huh?! What the?! Why are the laughing?!" Uraraka asked as she glared at the people on screen as if they killed her puppy.
"Midoriya?! You're kidding right?!"
"There's no way you're getting into the hero course without a quirk!"
"What do they mean without a quirk?! Yours is one of the strongest in our year!" Iida asked, appalled by how Midoriya's former classmates were treating him. Midoriya just sighed and focused on the screen again.
Midoriya stood up.
"Actually they got rid of that rule, I could be the first one!"
'So...he was quirkless then?'
Bakugou exploded Midoriya's desk in anger.
"Listen up Deku, you're even worse than these rejects you quirkless wannabe! You really think they would let someone like you in when they could have me?!"
"Dude, thats so not manly!" Kirishima exclaimed.
"Shit it, shutty hair!" Bakugou shouted at the boy beside him.
"Why is the teacher not putting a stop to this?!" Asked Cementoss, unhappy with the situation as well as the other teacher.
Midoriya started scuttling back from Bakugou in fear.
"No wait, you got it all wrong, really. I'm not trying to compete against you, you gotta believe me! It's just that...i've wanted to be a hero since i was little. I may not have a quirk but I can still try my hardest can't I?"
The answer wasn't enough to calm Bakugou as his hands started to smoke.
"You'd never be able to hang with the best of the best! You'd die in the exams!"
As Bakugou said the he and the rest of the class suddenly started looking a lot more demonic.
"AHH, Why do they look so scary?!" Pony asked, freaked out.
"The show is from Midoriya's perspective. That's why things are presented the way they are, this is how Midoriya sees the world." Kevin explained.
"Well then, I could see how that would be pretty scary." Said Iida.
Midoriya put his head down in shame.
"Defenceless Izuku! This schools already crappy, you really want to embarrass it more by failing so hard?!"
"Why do you have to be such a jerk?!" Uraraka asked angrily. They hadn't even got past the first episode but seeing her friend being constantly put down was starting to get to her.
"None of your fucking business!" Bakugo shouted back.
The outside of a building was shown with '00.02PM' taking up the screen. A woman's scream could be heard before a slime monster could be seen running away. A man starts yelling after him
"Hey get back here! Someone stop that monster!"
"Yell all you want sucker, this cash is mine!"
The slime villain then ran past a group of guys who were talking amongst themselves.
"The amount of people who use their quirks like this is depressingly high." Said Vlad King, shaking his head.
"Dude, where are all the heroes?!"
"Weird, normally someone would swoop in right away."
As they talked a blond skinny man could be seen walking out of a store.
"Maybe they're all still busy from that scene this morning."
"Remember when we didn't need to worry about rando's with quirks all the time?"
"Seriously, there's no stopping them."
Suddenly the skinny man from before bulked up into a bigger more muscular man.
"Yes there is. You know why?"
The sludge villain looked around and saw the man, suddenly he looked very worried.
"I AM HERE."
Wait...what?
"What the? All Might, was that you?!" Sero asked looking at his teacher.
"It can't be though, the man before was so skinny." Said Mineta.
All Might chose to remain silent.
Suddenly a title card popped up as if for a commercial before it went back to the show.
"Oh yeah we should go to Karoke tonight."
"Sure, let's go."
Midoriya was still packing up his stuff while his classmates left. He was looking at his phone.
"Man that fight from this morning is all over the news. Better write some notes down before I forget anything."
Before he could though his notebook was snatched out of his hand by Bakugou.
"I don't know what you think you're doing Deku but we're not done."
"What'cha got? His diary?"
The camera zoomed in on the notebook. The title read 'Hero Analysis for the Future. No. 13"
"huh? Don't tell me you're taking notes on how to be a hero. That's so pathetic!" One of Bakugo's goons said
Surprisingly it was Aizawa who spoke this time. "Pathetic, huh? Yet I don't see you in UA while Midoriya is."
Aizawa scowled at the screen trying to ignore Nemuri's giggling and whisper of 'dadzawa'
The two boys laughed at Midoriya.
"He's delusional."
"Yeah, really funny guys. Just give it back."
However instead of handing the boys notebook back, Bakugou slammed the book between his hands and let off and explosion.
Knowing how much those notes meant to Midoriya made Bakugou's actions even more appalling. Uraraka was starting to see red.
"AHH! That's so mean!"
The blonde then proceeded to throw the notebook out the window.
"Hmph, most first rate heroes show potential early on. People look at them and just know they're destined for greatness."
Izuku visibly flinched hearing that line again. Uraraka placed a hand on his shoulder and squeezed it trying to comfort him. The teachers were getting progressively more upset with the blonde as they watched the scene unfold.
To the side Todoroki was scowling, he was good friends with Izuku after Izuku help him relies that his quirk was his and seeing him be put down by someone with a assholes ego, it reminded him of some things he'd rather not dwell on.
Izuku could be seen shaking as Bakugou continued to talk.
"When I'm the only student from this garbage junior high to get into UA, people will start talking about me like that. They'll realise I'm legit, the next big thing. That's not ego talking I just know I'm good."
One of the blonde's cronies turned his head to the side as his thoughts could briefly be heard loud and clear. "Ego~"
"Fucker." Bakugou grumbled under his breathe.
Bakugou placed his hand on Midoriya's shoulder as it started to smoke.
"Here's a little word of advice, nerd. Don't even think of applying...or else!"
At that Izuku could only stutter in fear.
Midoriya and Bakugou then realised what was definitely coming next and they both braced. No one was going to be happy about what happened next.
Midoriya stood there shaking.
"That's just sad! I thought you at least had some fight in you."
"He finally gets it, he'll never be a hero. Better to find out now instead of later I guess."
"Ignore them Deku, they wouldn't know a hero if one punched them in the face." Uraraka said. Midoriya was thankful for her words but he was too busy preparing for the inevitable outcry that was about to happen to properly take them in.
Bakugou stopped at the door and looked back.
"You know, if you really want to be a hero that badly there might actually be another way."
'Is Bakugou actually about to say something useful?!'
"Just pray you're born with a quirk in your next life and take a swan dive off the roof of the building."
Silence. Utter and complete silence.
There were a few murmurs of discontent, which started it. A few sharp gasps, a quietly whispered 'No, he didn't..." It was thoroughly shattered by the smell of smoke rising along with the room getting colder. Everyone was in too much shock to notice, but just before Kirishima could lay into his friend for his actions the floor froze. Todoroki erupted into small flames, and with a sharp cry lunged at Bakugou. "You ...YOU BASTARD!" He saw red. He knew well enough what emotional abuse could do to a person. He'd been on the receiving end more than once. Seeing someone he had truly considered a friend for the first time in his life, to go through this made him MAD. Kirishima didn't move to block him, or move Bakugou away, heck Bakugou himself didn't move, though he himself was shaking, whether in rage at himself or someone else was unknown, but before Todoroki could even singe the bastard, his quirk was cancelled. He looked over to Aizawa, who had an uncannily neutral look on his face. Once he realized the Hal-Hot-Half-Cold quirk user wouldn't assault his classmate, he let his quirk die down.
Before anyone could say or do anything, Aizawa said in a voice that brokered no argument. "No one, and I mean NO ONE will talk about this right now. We will be discussing this action and your behavior once we get out of here, Bakugou. Be advised, you will not walk away free from this. This is not something you should say lightly, be it anyone in front of you." With that, he sat down and didn't look at anyone. He sat there with his mask on, but those who knew him well were aware of the rage he was feeling.
Toshinori was torn up at the life his successor had been leading before he met him. He remembered his words to him at the rooftop, and though he knew it had to be said, dropping such a thing onto a boy who had been through so much that very same day made him loathe his actions even more. He had let his ire at his own condition color his response. It was a miracle that Young Midoriya had not taken his words to heart, and had been strong enough in his determination that he soldiered on. He vowed to not let his own emotions let him make someone else's life bitter. You may never know what someone's going through when you speak to them, and one word could send them off the edge.
As Bakugou sat down, he looked around at the faces of his classmates. Half'n'Half and Glasses had a look of unbridled rage on them. Hair for Brains looked so hurt, as if someone had killed his puppy and then spat at the corpse. Monoma mutter quietly saying 'Even I'm not that cruel'. Round Face looked fearful, as if Deku would jump off right now. And Deku, that bastard had a-what? He had an...apologetic look on his face. As if he had something wrong and wished to have change it. He couldn't take that look. "DAMNIT DEKU! DON'T LOOK DOWN ON ME LIKE THAT!" He began only to be cut off by Aizawa's glare. He grunted and sat down, while shitty hair was still trying to process what was going on.
The camera slowly zoomed in on Midoriya as he was shaking. Finally he turned around with a glare on his face...which immediately faltered as Bakugou glared back while setting off an explosion.
"Something wrong?"
"As much as I hate complimenting him for anything right now, I have to admit he's got intimidation down pat." Nemuri said with a frown on her face.
The camera cut to outside the building, panning down to show Izuku walking along.
"That idiot! You can't go around telling people to kill themselves, what if I really jumped? What would he do then?"
'Thank god he didn't take it to heart.' Thought All Might. He couldn't imagine what he'd do if his protégé considered committing suicide.
Midoriya stopped and looked into a small pool, he could see fish eating his notebook that Bakugou had destroyed.
"My dreams have turned into fish food...that's enough, give it back! Dammit!"
The boy looked down at the book, clearly distressed.
"Stupid jerk."
Most everyone in both classes was disheartened to see Midoriya so sad. He was usually so happy, if quiet. It was wrong seeing him like this.
The screen started to blur as a younger child's voice could be heard.
"Mom hurry!"
A young Izuku could then be seen running through a doorway with an All Might action figure in his grasp.
"Oh my gosh this is so CUUUUUUTEE~" was the general reaction of the room, with the girls, including Midnight, getting all teary eyed at the actions of a little Izuku.
"Ahh, you've been a fanboy since the very beginning, haven't you young Midoriya." All Might grinned at seeing evidence of the admiration his successor had for him. Gran Torino was laughing whole heartedly, seeing childish innocence never got old.
"This is so precious!" Pony exclaimed while snapping quick shots with her phone, everyone asking her to send them a copy.
Izuku was embarrassed a little by this, but he wouldn't hide his admiration for his idol from anyone for the world.
The young boy ran over to his mother who was doing the dishes and started bouncing around on the spot.
"Come on mom! It's computer time!"
"Already?"
Some All Might Posters could be seen on the wall.
"Ugh, faster! Let's go!"
The young boy could be seen rocking back and forth in his seat excitedly.
The young boy's energy elicited a few giggles from the classes while Izuku just stared at the screen with a smile on his face, knowing what was next.
"Jeeez, I think you've added ten thousand views to this one yourself Izuku. I don't know why you like it, I think it's scary."
The boy leaned in with a big smile on his face
"The video I loved was an old one. Disaster footage from a long time ago...but more importantly, it was the debut of the greatest hero the world has ever known."
"Hey I remember that video, I loved it as a kid." Said Jirou. "Though clearly nowhere near as much as you Midoriya."
In the back the number one hero chuckles quietly to himself. 'So even that far back you were just as much a fan as you are now.'
A man appeared in the shaky footage.
"Who is he? The guy's already saved a hundred people at least and it hasn't even been ten minutes. This is...This is crazy! I can't believe it!"
The camera shifted focus on a shadow starting to emerge over a destroyed bus. Midoriya looked at the screen excited. All might's theme starts to play.
"HAHAHA!"
"Look, he's got more!"
The man figure continued to laugh as young Midoriya's smile grew even wider as the world around him started to fade to white.
The hero's boot stomped on top of the vehicle before the footage panned up to show the man's upper half as he carried multiple people on him.
"Fear not citizens! Hope has arrived!"
Midoriya's eyes glistened.
"Because I am here!"
Midoriya's hair started blowing about as if he was literally being blown away before picked up his figuring to look at it.
"He's the coolest in the universe! And when I get my quirk, I'm gonna be a hero just like him!"
"Damn it Midori! Who gave you permission to be this cute?!" Ashido asked, causing the boy to blush again.
As the young boy laughed the camera focused on his mother whose happy face shifted to one of worry. Suddenly the camera cut to a doctor's office with a bald man sitting in a chair.
"Sorry kid, it's not gonna happen."
The young boy went as a white as a sheet as his figurine dropped onto the floor. Sombre music begins to play in the background.
"Oh no...So you really think there is something wrong then? Most of the other kindergartners in his class have started to show signs already..."
"So...you really were quirkless?" Asked Todoroki, confused.
"Yes. I was." Midoriya informed him.
"Then how...?" Iida started before Midoriya interrupted him.
"It would be easier to understand if you just watch."
"My records say you're a fourth generation quirk user. What powers do you and the boy's father have?"
"Nothing too special. I can float small objects"
As she said this Midoriya's action figure floated back up into her hand to punctate her point.
"and my husband breathes fire. They're useful enough, I suppose."
"Izuku should've already manifested one of these quirks or a combination of them both but after viewing his X-rays I don't think he's going to."
The camera then zoomed in to show an X-ray of Midoriya's foot.
"You see when superpowers first began appearing, there were many research studies conducted and doctors discovered a link between the bones in a person's foot and their likelihood of developing a quirk. People with powers have only one joint in their pinkie toes. Their bodies have evolved into a more streamlined version of the human form. You can see here Izuku has two joints in his pinkie, like roughly 20 percent of the population these days."
Izuku could be seen with the entire world around him being an endless blank as he stared blankly ahead of himself.
"Based on the research that's available it's safe to say your son isn't going to develop a quirk."
"Such heart-breaking news and he doesn't even try to soften the blow, that man should have his medical license revoked!" Recovery girl tutted as she shook her head.
The outside of apartment building the Midoriya's lived in was shown. It was raining heavily. Inside the room the Midoriya's were in before was shown but this time the lights were turned off. The video was playing again. Inko turned around to look at her son.
"See that mom? There's always a smile on his face, no matter how bad things get. Even when things seem impossible he never gives up."
The boy turned his chair around to face his mom who was starting to tear up. The camera cut to the young boy, tears in his eyes. He was trying his hardest to keep a smile on his face but it was obviously forced. His voice was heartbroken and strained.
"Do you think...I can be a hero too?"
And that did it, not even the coldest people in the room could say it didn't hurt to see such a young child so heartbroken. At this, the present Midoriya bursts into tears, remembering all the emotions he felt. Uraraka holds him in a hug, tears falling freely down her face, like most of the people present there. Even the stoic Shoto had a sorrowful expression on his face. Kaminari complained that the music was too damn strong for him and Kirishima went and patted Midoriya on his back. Iida also tried to reassure his friend, and so did everyone else. They were still confused as to the nature of his quirk, given his apparent quirklessness, which was now confirmed by the doctor, but their curiosity could wait. Their friend needed them now, and that was all that mattered.
"Ever since he was young, all the boy's wanted to do is help people." Vlad King observed.
'This kid...he'll never stop surprising me will he?' Aizawa thought to himself.
Inko ran towards her child pulling him into a hug.
"I'm sorry, Izuku! I wish things were different."
Finally the boy's tears he was fighting so hard to keep at bay fell as just stared forward with a blank expression, broken. As the older Midoriya's voice returned even that sounded strained. The camera focused on the dropped action figure.
"Mom...that's not what I needed you to say. Couldn't you see? My world was crumbling, there was only one thing I wanted to hear."
Finally the older Midoriya showed up again at a tunnel looking at the ground. "I made a decision that day. No matter what anyone else thinks, I have to believe in myself and I'll keep smiling just like him!"
'Bullied, told you're quirkless, had your dreams crushed and yet you still find a way to be optimistic...Midoriya, you really are amazing.'
The boy copied the number one hero's signature laugh as he stomped through the tunnel. Behind him, slime started to form.
Everyone's eyes widened in shock. 'Oh no...'
Bakugou took in a sharp breathe 'Deku was attacked by that asshole first?'
The boy stopped and turned around, his face changing to one of shock.
"A villain?!"
"You'll make a perfect skin suit for me to hide in, kid."
"Midoriya, run!" Kirishima called out, forgetting that this had already happened and the boy couldn't hear him.
"Please be ok..." Uraraka pleaded. Everyone was worried, forgetting the boy was right there with them, completely fine.
Midoriya tried to run but the monster was too fast for him. Tense music started to play in the background as the creature started to stuff himself through the boy's mouth.
"Don't worry, I'm just taking over your body. It'll be easier for both of us if you don't fight back. It'll only hurt for a minute, you'll feel better soon." The villain said. Midoriya tried to fight back but it was to no avail.
"I can't...breathe..."
"Grab all you want but my body's made of fluid. Thanks for the help, you're a real hero to me kid."
"That...!" Uraraka didn't finish her sentence but an audible growl could be heard from her. Everyone was getting more and more worried about Izuku. Obviously he survived but how?
"I didn't know he was in the city. I got to get out of her fast before he tracks me down."
Midoriya's movements became sluggish.
"My body...getting weak...I think I'm dying! No way, this can't be the end."
The camera focused on his notebook. An early sketch of Midoriya's future hero costume was the page it was turned to.
"Somebody...help."
All Might frowned. He hadn't realised how long his successor had suffered because of that villain. He wished he had gotten there faster.
A blue flash suddenly went across the screen as a manhole cover went flying into the air. The slime creature turned, his expression became one of shock and fear. A man hunched over could be seen. All Might's theme began to play.
"Have no fear, you are safe."
The man stood tall, revealing himself to be All Might in all his glory.
"Now that I am here that is!"
The monster threw a slimy tendril at him but the hero dodged. As the roof behind him was battered he rushed forward. The slime creature threw out another hand to stop him. All Might stomped into the ground to hold himself before throwing a punch.
"TEEEXXXAAASSS SMMMAAASSSHH!"
The punch itself only hit the monsters hand but the wind pressure the punch caused blew the monster away entirely.
"I can't hold together!"
The monster burst and Midoriya was free. The boy opened his eyes for a moment as he fell.
"Is that...All Might?"
"All Might saved him!" cheered Kaminari as everyone gave a collective sigh of relief.
The boy blacked out. The camera then focused on him passed out on the ground. The number one hero started to slap the boy's cheek.
"Hey! Wake up! Hey!"
There was a resounding thud from the back of the room where Recovery Girl smacked All Might.
"You utter oaf! That's not how you wake up someone who is unconscious!"
"I'm sorry, I was out of time!"
"THAT'S NOT AN EXCUSE!"
"Out of time?" Questioned Shoji.
"Oh...Well you'll see fairly soon I'm sure." All Might said. He then flinched remembering how he had initially handled the boy's question. Knowing what he did now made him feel awful, though honestly even before his handling of the situation was terrible.
Midoriya's eyes cracked open.
"Oh! Thought we lost you there!"
The boy's face became one of surprise before he backpedalled as fast as possible while screaming.
Immediately everyone started laughing at the greenette's reaction while said boy just blushed.
"Well looks like you're moving around alright. Sorry about that back there, I didn't mean to get you caught up in my justice-ing"
'Is that even a word?'
"Usually I pay more attention to keeping bystanders safe but it turns out this city's sewer system is pretty difficult to navigate!" The blonde laughed. Midoriya looked on in shock. "Anyway, you were a big help, thank you! I've captured the evil-doer!" As he said this he showed the boy a soda bottle that had the slime villain housed within.
"A soda bottle?" Tokoyami questioned.
"We heroes are dealing with crime all time, even when we're supposed to be off-duty! You need to be resourceful to restrain villains when you have no normal equipment like handcuffs on you." The blonde informed his student.
"The most amazing hero in the whole world, All Might, the real thing in the flesh standing right in front of me...HE LOOKS SO MUCH COOLER IN PERSON!"
"Holy crap, I gotta get an autograph, I've got a pen around here somewhere."
The boy then noticed his notebook lying on the ground.
"Please sign my notebook! AHHHHH, He already did!"
Midoriya started bowing over and over at a rapid pace.
"Thank you so much! This will be an heirloom, A family treasure passed down for generations to come!"
The blonde just gave a thumbs up to the boy.
"Uh huh!"
Everyone burst out laughing hard, even Bakugou allowed himself a snort at Midoriya's fanboying kicked into high gear.
"Oh my god Deku! A family heirloom!?" Uraraka tried to say through her laughter.
"I am so grateful to have been able to see this, I will treasure this brilliant image for a long time to come~" Hagakure teased.
"Even All Might isn't sure how to respond to that!" Laughed Kirishima.
Meanwhile the boy they were laughing at was busy turning a shade of red not yet discovered from embarrassment.
"Well, I've got to get this guy to the police so they can take care of him. Stay out of trouble, See you around!"
The blonde crouched down.
"Wait, you're leaving? Already?"
"Pro heroes are constantly fighting time as well as enemies,"
Midoriya took a step forward before faltering.
'He can't go yet, there's still so many questions I have to ask him.'
"Now stand back, I'm taking off."
Suddenly Tokoyami let out a surprised snort. "Midoriya, you didn't..."
All might spoke up from the back. "Oh he most certainly did."
"Wait, did what?" Asked Kirishima.
"You'll see."
The blonde shot off into the air.
"Thank you for your continued support!...huh?"
The camera showed the back of All Might were Midoriya was clinging on for dear life, Mouth flapping in the wind.
Silence hung in the air for a moment before the room burst out into more laughter.
"Holy crap Mido! You're insane!" Mina said, tears forming in her eyes from laughing.
"Midoriya! That was incredibly dangerous and reckless thing to do!" Iida berated his friend.
"That seems par for the course with him though!" Sero chuckled.
"Hey hey hey! What do you think you're doing?! Let go, I love my fans but this is too much."
"No way, we're flying! If I let go now I'll die!"
"Oh...that's a good point."
"I just have so many things I want to ask you personally! You're my all-time favourite hero All Might please!"
"Ok ok, I get it. Just keep your eyes and mouth shut."
The greenette did what he was asked and buried his face into the man's leg who responded by sighing. He turned around and coughed. A small drop of blood left his mouth.
"Shit..."
"Huh?! All Might are you ok?" Questioned multiple students.
"Please, keep watching. You will see soon enough." All Might told them.
Midoriya cringed, not only because his mentors secret was about to be revealed but also out of worry for how the others would react to how All Might initially shut down his dreams of being a hero.
There was a loud crash as All Might landed on a nearby building. The camera cut to Midoriya who looked dead and was shaking. He groaned.
"...My life just flashed before my eyes..."
"Not a very smart move! Bang on the door for a while, someone will let you in. Now I have to go! See you on the flip side!"
"Wait not yet! One second!"
"No! I don't have any time."
Realisation dawned amongst the staff members. 'So this is why he doesn't mind Midoriya seeing him in his normal form.'
"I have to know!"
Suddenly the scene change back to the doctors office.
"Sorry Kid, it's not going to happen."
The camera cut back as Midoriya's hand was held out towards the man.
"I'm sorry Izuku! I wish things were different."
The boys hand started to close and he pulled it back.
"Defenceless Izuku! The schools already crappy, you really want to embarrass it more by failing so hard."
Finally the boys hand returned to his sides.
"Sometimes I do feel like I'm a failure, like there's no hope for me..."
"Deku..." Uraraka's voice was quiet. She looked to her side and saw the present Midoriya staring at the floor, eyes shut. She put her hand on top of his and squeezed, hoping it would reassure him.
"But even so, I'm not going to give up...ever!"
Orchestral music is audible in the background
"Is it possible to become a hero even if I don't have a quirk?!"
The blonde was stopped in his tracks by the question.
"I'm a normal kid without any powers...Could I ever hope to be someone like you?!"
The thoughts going through most of the students heads at that point was the same. 'Please say yes, he needs to hear it! He can be a hero!'
The music starts to swell. The blond slowly turns his head. Midoriya closes his eyes in anticipation. The older Midoriya could be heard once again as the camera zoomed away from the building.
"Meeting All Might was a dream come true. A real miracle. Standing in front of me was the hero I had idolized most of my life. I didn't realise it at the time but that chance encounter would change the course of my future."
'What will he say?!'
Suddenly a picture of Midoriya's sketch for his hero costume was on screen as music played in the background.
"In this world that surrounds me and my inferior self..."
"Huh?! Credits?! Not now!" Hagakure complained.
"Cliff hanger ending, damn." Setsuna observed.
"No matter how I re-imagine it, grasping for it...It still feels so far away."
A few pictures focused on different parts of All Might's body went by on screen before it cut to the knight sky with one star shining far more bright than the rest.
"Woah oh!~"
Midoriya's shoe stomps into the ground leaving a footprint behind. The boy can be seen sprinting towards the star.
"I awoke in a dream that got further away the more I tried to get up close."
"More sad lyrics?!" Questioned Jirou.
The sky starts to brighten.
"That city filled with signs of daybreak is hiding a voice within."
An All Might figure flies across the screen before Little Midoriya can be seen playing with it. He also does various poses while holding the figure.
'AWW! He's still so cute!'
"Wavering as I am, searching for the meaning of my life amongst the darkness."
Grass passes the screen and Midoriya can be seen running again, the star is a little duller but still brighter than the rest.
"In this world that surrounds me and my inferior self, No matter how I reimagine it, grasping for it...it still feels so far away"
Midoriya trips and almost disappears from the screen but he gets back up and keeps running.
"What must I cast aside in order to reach it?"
The stars start to disappear from the sky however the brightest one is still visble.
"No matter how many times I try to scream aloud, in the end I am no one but myself."
The sun's faint glow appears to the side but still the star is visible in the sky.
"No matter if this is fiction or reality."
The sun is now shining brightly now and yet the start is still visible even though it is just a speck on the screen.
"I will surely manage to go beyond."
A black and white photo of little Midoriya crying can be seen.
"I don't mind if I fall..."
Another black and white photo of Midoriya crying can be seen but this time he's much older in his teens.
"I don't mind if I cry."
The camera panned up from Midoriya's footprints to the sunrise.
"Each experience will eventually bloom into a flower."
"That was...beautiful." Kirishima said
"Yes the symbolism is clear and inspiring." Said Yaoyorouzu.
"And that was the first episode." OB announced.
" The next episode will play in ten mins, so if you have to use the bathroom or want to get more sacks, go and do so." Kevin said.
Everyone did what they needed to do and made it back to their seats. OB press play for episode 2.
"Alright sweet, episode 2 here we come!"
