Ooc: Hello everyone! I didn't really have anything to say for the first chapter of this mighty shield, toshi dave, dave might or whichever ship name you choose for them for this fanfic. All of them are beautiful. But anyway! Hope you are all enjoying it so far :)
"Toshi are you ok? You look like something's eating away at you and i don't mean that literally." Dave says, taking a quick look of his taller friend up and down with a worried look on his face. What was it that Toshi wanted to talk with him about? "Something has been eating at me for a long time Dave. I need to come clean about it but we will get to that in a little bit. How have things been going for you? What happened after the whole I island incident?" Toshi responds as he sits down on the couch with dave, pushing him a cup of tea that was made. "Thanks. Well…" Dave takes a sip of the tea and sighs before sitting it back down on the coffee table beside the couch and continuing "After the whole fiasco they've upgraded the security and clearance required to get onto the island for one. They also made it so it takes a group of people to access the more sensitive things on the higher levels of the tower. As for what happened with me i had been seen as an accomplice in the villian attack with Sam being the main mastermind behind the whole thing. He's now banned from coming onto the island again and is in jail for letting the villains in. I don't know how long though he'll be in jail. Now for me… since i was seen as an accomplice to the crime i'm now on probation since it would have caused too much of a scene if given a harsher punishment. I'm only allowed to build smaller devices that help the elderly or children learning to control their quirks for the next 3 to 5 years, depending on good behavior and such. After that when i do get to go back to work i'll have assistants that know about the incident so that i can be monitored and hopefully prevent something like this from happening again."
"Well it could've been a lot worse Dave but at least you and Melissa are alright and nobody got seriously hurt in that whole thing." Toshi comments when it looked like Dave was done explaining what had happened with him. "Yeah it could have been a lot worse. Still i can't believe i even went along with that! I just… i couldn't stand by and do nothing when my best friend was withering away, losing his power when i could do something to help him!" Dave answers, blinking back the tears in his eyes. "Hey it's ok Dave. While i won't deny what you did was crazy you only had the best of intentions at heart when doing said actions." Toshi holds Dave's hands in his, running his thumbs across the top of them to try and soothe Dave's nerves. "Yeah i know Toshi I know.. I still can't help but feel bad for that whole mess though. I'm going to have to live with that regret and mistake for the rest of my life" "We all have done things we are not proud of Dave, even me. The important thing is that you recognize that and are taking steps to be a better person from them." Toshi sighs, feeling his own nerves getting frazzled again. "Yeah you're right Toshi i just need to stop worrying about it so much. So what was it that you were wanting to tell me now that i got my piece off of my chest?" Dave asks, taking a few more sips of his tea before setting the cup down again.
"Oh right. Guess it's my turn now huh?" Toshi chuckles nervously, swallowing thickly as he tried to think of how to start this off. He had to be sure to phrase this right or things could go south real quick. "You… Remember back on I island when you asked why my quirk levels were so low and continued to drop Dave?" "Yeah of course i do Toshi but what does it have to do with what you need to tell me?" Dave asks with a tilt of his head, not understanding why Toshi brought that up. "It has a lot to do with what i need to tell you actually…" Toshi grabs a small envelope and pulls out a couple x-rays, setting them down on the table. "Are these x-rays of your feet Toshi?" "Yes they are. You know how the practice is with checking for the 2nd joint or not in a person's feet to identify if they'll develop a quirk or not. Now look at mine. Take a good look Dave.." Toshi says while pushing them towards the brunette. " Ok but i don't see wh….. Wait… you have TWO joints in your feet. But that would mean.." "Yes Dave. I'm quirkless just like Melissa is.." Toshi admits as he watches Dave's face get swallowed up by shock and confusion. "But all that power that had to be a result of a quirk! This.. This doesn't make any sense!" Dave exclaims, holding his head to try and understand this new information " Only a handful of people in the world know of this secret. This quirk Dave. You can see for yourself now i wasn't born with that power. It was a power passed onto me by someone else." "so you're saying someone gave you your quirk? How is that.." "I'll explain it all in detail to you Dave Young midoriya is explaining this to melissa as well tonight.." Toshi takes a big drink of his tea before letting out a sigh and setting the cup to the side.
It took about half an hour for Toshi to explain the entire story to Dave about One For all and it's connection to All For One, how he had acquired the quirk and how midoriya had the quirk along with clearing up any questions Dave had. "So that's the whole story Dave. Now you know the whole truth about my power." Toshi finishes as he rubs his neck while waiting for Dave to respond or ask anymore questions. "So you mean to tell me all that i did, everything that i went through was for nothing?!" Dave yells, his simmering rage that had been building inside him for the past half hour finally boiling over. "Dave please calm d-" Toshi starts before Dave slams his hand down on the table to cut him off. "NO!! I will NOT CALM DOWN TOSHINORI! My whole life is down the fucking tubes because of this! Yes i made the choice to do this but it was off of what I KNEW!" Dave shouts in anger, getting to his feet and grabbing his shoes to slip on. He couldn't stay here now. He needed to get some air before he did something he would regret. "Dave where are you going?!" "None of your business Toshi! Honestly did our friendship mean NOTHING to you?!aren't we friends?! Didn't you trust me to say something sooner??!" He asked with a look of betrayal and hurt on his face. He thought Toshi would never hide such a big part of himself from him. He thought he knew Toshi well after all these years. "Dave please just come sit back down so we can talk about th-" Toshi lets out a loud yelp when he felt Dave's fist slam into his face when he had put his hand on the brunette's shoulder to try and keep him from leaving. "Don't you touch me right now Toshinori! I… i can't even look at you right now! You had hid such a big part of you from me and now everything is a wreck because of it. I was willing to give up EVERYTHING. EVERY. DAMN. THING! yet my so called "best friend" couldn't even tell me something like this. I… i gotta go and get some air before i do something i'll regret again. Don't come looking for me.." Dave's voice drops off to a grumble in the last sentence, slamming the door behind him as he left Toshi's home, leaving the blonde with one hand still reaching out for him and the other holding his hurt cheek, his face looking twisted and broken as he wanted to yell out but no noise came out of his mouth. All he could do was stare at the door right then at Dave storming off.
Things didn't go well at all with telling Dave the truth and now both of them were having to pay the price for it.
Ooc: well that's the end of this chapter hope you all enjoyed it! I will see everyone in the next chapter!
