Enjoy the chapter :D
Midoriya was in his room wondering if he should tell Nezu or Aizawa about the fight to come to Deika city.
"I need to find a way to minimize casualties." Midoriya said as he spread out his vigilante costume
"And you all should let me think for myself." Midoriya whispered in annoyance
"Dangerous. Too dangerous." A whisper said quickly
"Let them kill each other. Fewer enemies are better" Another whisper said
"That's not the point ." Midoriya said as he laid back on his bed after taking a pill for his headache
Midoriya now had a better understanding of the whispers since he last went berserk at the training site. The whispers were all remnants of what was left behind of the user but some previous victims are still alive and they're thoughts still reside within the quirk for mysterious reasons.
The whispers all began to argue until Midoriya spoke up.
"Just shut up and let me sleep." Midoriya said angrily as he sat up
"Decision. Make a decision." The whispers said in unison before going quiet.
"Finally. . . " Midoriya said as he shut his eyes and went to sleep
A few hours later . . .
Midoriya sat up from his bed with a yawn and walked over to his closet.
. . . .
Midoriya was trying his best to reach Deika city as fast as possible but grappling can only get you so far, it was going to take 30 minutes at least.
"Please don't be late. " Midoriya said to himself as he swung from building to building
Back at U.A
"Midoriya is on the move and towards Deika City no less." Nezu said as he turned the monitor to Aizawa
"I know we had some intel about a brawl breaking out soon with the league and the liberation army but it wasn't enough to act on." Aizawa said as he stared at the monitor with Nezu
"Well if Midoriya is heading over its safe to assume the intel was correct. I have faith that he will do the right thing in Deika city." Nezu said as he looked over at the monitor once more
"Let's hope this doesn't end with him dead." Aizawa said as he walked back to his office
"I'll keep you posted" Nezu said as Aizawa headed out the door
"I can't lose another one." Aizawa sighed as he remembered an old friend
In Deika City. . .
Midoriya arrived just in time as he saw the league beginning to fight with the liberation army.
"Take and destroy. . . free us." The whispers said
"Just be quiet." Midoriya said as he ran toward the fight
Loud bangs could be heard in different parts of the city as the league engaged with the liberation army. Midoriya wasn't there to participate, instead, he was there to try and minimize casualties.
"JUST WHY DID YOU FALL INTO MADNESS?!" Curious shouted
Midoriya was watching the fight from a roof nearby as to not be seen, Toga seemed pretty beat up.
"Curious is one of the executives of the army." Midoriya thought as he stared at the pale blue woman
"What exactly is a normal life?" Toga replied with a big smile
. . .
Midoriya had dug into all of their backgrounds but Toga's was the easiest to find surprisingly. Her situation was on the news everywhere a few years back.
Toga was out of energy and was on Curious lap hearing her talk about her past.
"Forced to the norms of this world-" Curious was saying before she was interrupted by Toga
"SHUT UP!" Toga shouted
Toga tried to stab Curious but to no avail as Curious used her support item and punched Toga in the face.
"You will become a martyr for our cause Himiko Toga!" Curious said as he looked at the bloodied teenage girl
Toga slipped out of the woman's arms and began to run away in the other direction and took a drop of Uraraka's blood to transform.
"What? Why now?" Midoriya asked himself as he observed the desperate girl
"You can only change appearance and that's all! I guess you want to go out looking cute how adorable!" Curious said as she caught up to Toga and prepared to finish her off
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Toga shrieked
. . . .
Midoriya felt a chill down his spine and watched in horror at what was watching developing before him.
"Huh?" Curious said as she began to float along with the rest of her soldiers
Midoriya looked around at the sky and chose the most likely to survive and got ready.
"I'm going to fall more and more in love!" Toga said as she released the zero gravity
"Come on come on." Midoriya said frustrated as he jumped from building to building saving a few civilians that were falling from the sky
"What an incredible headline for the ultimate arti-" Curious said before smashing into the concrete with a splat
Toga was too hurt and pumped on adrenaline to notice Midoriya saving the civilians in the sky.
"You! Why did you save us?!" a man said to Midoriya
"We were ready to die for the cause!" A woman said angrily
The group was angry at Midoriya for interfering with the battle until. .
"I could kill you all right here if you wish." Midoriya said in a menacing voice
The group gulped and stood down after that. Midoriya grappled onto a nearby roof and tried to look for Toga
"Damn lost her." Midoriya said frustrated
Midoriya jumped around trying to minimize casualties anywhere he can until he ran into Dabi.
"So your here." Dabi said walking up to Midoriya
"You guys don't care how many people you kill do you?" Midoriya said staring down the scarred teen
"Its kill or be killed here! Should I lay on my back and die?!" Dabi shouted as he shot a fire blast towards Midoriya
Midoriya dodged and dashed towards Dabi.
"Not so fast!" Dabi said as he shot a full blast of fire at Midoriya
The fire connect and Dabi tried to catch his breath but Midoriya appeared from the fire and revved up his punch at Dabi's stomach.
"Shit he's going to knock me out!" Dabi thought as he tripped backward
"With this, I can capture at least him." Midoriya said as he about to knock out Dabi but was interrupted by a large wave of ice
Midoriya took a direct hit and went sent flying to another street towards the center.
"He's my prey." Geten said as he looked down at Dabi from his ice platform
"Ice huh and a strong one to boot." Dabi said as he got up from the ground and looked up at Geten
Midoriya shifted his body in midair and grappled to a nearby building.
"DAMN IT!" Midoriya said frustrated as he punched the ground
The battle between Geten and Dabi began and Midoriya had a feeling that he had long forgotten.
"I feel useless." Midoriya said with a sigh as watched crowds of people die at the hands of the league.
Midoriya sat and watched until he saw spinner and Shigaraki of all people fighting a crowd.
"REVENGE FOR CURIOUS!" the large crowd of people shouted as they rushed toward Shigaraki
"I'm in the worst possible mood." Shigaraki said as he disintegrated the entire group in an instant
Midoriya eyes shot wide open and instantly dashed toward Shigaraki at high speed without even thinking.
"KILL HIM!" the whispers shouted in unison
"IF IT'S JUST HIM AND ONLY HIM! I CAN'T ALLOW HIM TO LIVE ANY LONGER!" Midoriya said as he prepared to lose his entire arm to kill Shigaraki in one punch
Midoriya closed the distance unnoticed and prepared to kill Shigaraki when a familiar voice stopped him and his body causing him to crash land on a roof.
"Not so fast boy." All For One said with a chuckle
Midoriya's body felt like it was under intense gravity
"GRR" Midoriya growled as he tried to lift himself off the ground
"I can't have you killing my successor like that. I do have to say your intent to kill was so strong even I felt it from here" All for one said laughing
" I'll be going now." All For One said
Shigaraki and Spinner were now gone from the vicinity leaving only Midoriya to watch as countless civilians died for a cause that had no future.
"Frustrated. So close." the voices said angrily
"Use us and finish this now!" the voices said angrily
"SHUT UP! Let me think for myself please." Midoriya replied
Midoriya no longer felt the huge weight on his body and got up from the roof.
"That's not good." Midoriya said as he watched an army of clone's made by twice filling the city
The clones were killing anyone in their way and Midoriya was no exception.
"Get him!" the clones said in unison as they began to attack Midoriya
"Wait this is perfect." Midoriya thought as he began to flee
A large number of clones began to chase Midoriya as he fled and many other clones quickly followed as well.
"You can't run away forever!" The clones said
"I know." Midoriya replied as he looked at a literal wave of clones about to crash onto him
Air cannon
Midoriya lifted his arm and punched in the direction of the clones destroying all of them in one punch. Although there were thousands still running around, Midoriya was able to destroy a significant amount before any more people were hurt.
The liberation began to retreat and Midoriya let out a sigh relief until a large boom could be heard nearby.
"What in god's name is-" Midoriya said as he watched a large beast destroy everything in its path
Midoriya snapped out of his haze and remembered something All For One had kept hidden from the league but after some digging Midoriya had found a codename for something.
"Gigantomachia." Midoriya said in a low voice
The fight raged on as Geten was no longer battling Dabi but Gigantomachia.
"MASTERS SUCCESSOR" Gigantomachia Shouted as he plowed his way through civilians and buildings
"I can't beat that thing." Midoriya said in defeat
"Retreat. Another day." the voices said
Midoriya hated to fail but the death toll was already amongst hundreds maybe even thousands and fighting now will only make that number climb even more.
"Damn it." Midoriya said as he retreated to U.A in defeat
Back at U.A High. . .
Midoriya was in his bed staring at the ceiling but images of people being torn apart and killed were flashing in his head.
"Damn." Midoriya sighed as he pulled out his phone to see the news when a knock was at his door
Midoriya opened the door to reveal Aizawa with Nezu at his side.
"We need to talk." Aizawa said to Midoriya
"Yeah sure." Midoriya said as he put on a sweater before heading out
Back in Nezu's office Aizawa was pulling out some papers when Nezu spoke up.
"We know about Deika city and your involvement." Nezu said
"You can't save them all Midoriya, don't let the number faze you." Aizawa added
"I know." Midoriya replied in a depressed tone
"Midoriya I called you here to discuss your upcoming internship. We both know you are highly trained but I think you can still learn a thing or two from others." Nezu explained
"In a few days the students will all go train under someone, please consider doing the same." Aizawa said handing Midoriya a list of Hero's
"I don't think any of them will accept me." Midoriya replied
"I'll make sure that they do and don't worry about our public image for now Midoriya." Nezu said with a smile
"I'll think about it." Midoriya said before leaving the office and going back to his room
"I'm a bit worried about tomorrow."Aizawa said
"The interview will go well I just know it!" Nezu said with glee
. . . .
Midoriya was in his room working when he heard a knock on his door.
"Yes?" Midoriya asked as he opened the door
"Hey~" Mina said with a cute smile
"Hi Mina." Midoriya greeted the pink girl
"So some of us were thinking of having a little picnic outside in a bit would you like to come?" Mina asked fully prepared to be rejected
There was a pause and Midoriya looked at the paperwork on his desk and let out a sigh.
"Sure." Midoriya said
"It's okay I under- wait really?" Mina said surprised
"Yea I'll meet you downstairs." Midoriya said before closing the door
Mina began to make her way back to the stairs but not before looking back at Midoriya's door with a warm smile.
The next day. . .
Aizawa was in the staff room with Midoriya working on lesson plans when the silence was broken by Nezu.
"Midoriya good morning!" Nezu said with energy
"Oh, good morning principal." Midoriya said bowing before the mouse
"Morning Principal" Aizawa greeted
The students would all be getting interviewed today in the afternoon including Midoriya.
"So as you know Midoriya your status as a hero has been kept secret for various reasons but today we will go public." Nezu explained handing Midoriya a statement by U.A
"So try not to act like a demon on camera yea?" Aizawa said teasing Midoriya
"Very funny red eye." Midoriya said with a comeback of his own
"I think your change from villain to a student will show the world that good can prevail." Nezu said with a smile
"So what do I say?" Midoriya asked
"We want the interview to go as smoothly as possible but genuine." Aizawa added
"Midoriya be sure to be yourself and show the world that even a quirkless boy can be a hero!" Nezu said as he raised both arms in the air
"What about my quirks and the incident with All For One? Class 1-A and Class 1-B know I have something." Midoriya asked
"About that Midoriya, we talked with all the students and told them to keep their lips sealed on that incident. As of now, only the class knows about that but the world will know the real you." Aizawa explained to Midoriya
"What could go wrong right?" Midoriya said with a short chuckle
A few minutes later. . .
Midoriya was waiting for the reporters to finish interviewing Todoroki and Bakugou.
"Nervous?" Aizawa asked with a protein bag in hand
"Not really but I am prepared to hear some questions regarding my past." Midoriya replied
Aizawa was about to say something when Midoriya's time came up to be interviewed by the woman.
"Hello can you tell us your name?" the woman asked Midoriya
"Izuku Midoriya." Midoriya replied
Ever since Midoriya had entered U.A his name had been leaked several times to the public but thankfully there were no repercussions.
"Everyone is worried that you are just acting to get the trust of the hero's for a master plan in the future." The woman said
"No matter what I say no one will believe me but if it makes anyone feel better, no I'm not planning something against the hero's." Midoriya answered calmly
"I see well that's good to hear." the woman said with a smile
The woman flipped through her notes and found a good question to ask Midoriya.
"Now that you are a student of U.A what do you think your hero name will be when you hopefully graduate." the woman asked
"I haven't put much thought into it but I think ill go by my last name or. " MIdoriya said before pausing
"Or?" the woman said
"I might go by my old villain name and clear its name." Midoriya said to the newswoman
"Ah, I think that's amazing! Okay, last question, your classmates are blessed with such powerful quirks and you being quirkless have to keep up, what is your plan for the future." The woman asked as she leaned in
"I am quirkless but if you look at pro hero Eraserhead does not have a flashy quirk but he makes the most of what he has. I will make the most of support items and make up for my lack of a quirk." Midoriya explained
"That's a good answer, thank you for the interview Midoriya." The woman said standing up and bowing
"Thank you for having me." Midoriya said bowing back
. . .
"I still can't believe he became a student." The cameraman said
"Me neither but we got lucky with this interview." The woman replied
Aizawa walked up to Midoriya and handed him a cup of tea and a protein bar.
"You look like shit." Aizawa chuckled
"Is it that obvious." Midoriya sighed as he took a bite of the bar
"Nah but I know a thing or two about these kinds of things." Aizawa explained
"So now what?" Midoriya asked
"Well, now you go with the rest of the students and do interview practice with them. Try to be involved a bit more." Aizawa said as he sat down on a chair
"Alright, I'm on my way then." Midoriya said as he began to leave until Aizawa spoke up
"Wait Mt Lady is going to be there and I'm pretty sure she knows about your past. I'm tagging along so she doesn't cause a scene." Aizawa said as he got up from the chair
"Yea that mess in Kamino was bad." Midoriya said with a sigh
Midoriya and Aizawa soon made their way towards the rest of the students.
"You all nailed it!" Mt Lady said praising the students
"I DON'T SAY HALF ASSED THINGS! SHUT UP AND FOLLOW ME!" Bakugou shouted into the camera
" you need to get along better with the rest of humanity." said
Midoriya arrived with Aizawa but the class was too entertained by Bakugou and
"I think you're going to avoid the camera like Aizawa does Midoriya." Midnight said to Midoriya
"I'm no good around camera's or the spotlight." Midoriya replied
"Ok and is that everyone?" asked as she looked around
"We have one more!" Midnight said pulling Midoriya next to her chest
Midoriya showed no reaction as usual but Mt. Lady quickly went on the defense after seeing Midoriya next to Midnight.
"You're the villain boy from Kamino." said
"Its good to see you ." Midoriya greeted
"Midoriya is a student now and on his way to becoming a hero. Today is the day we tell the world about our new student." Aizawa explained
The class was excited to hear that news on Midoriya and his status as a student.
"Yay finally~" Mina said with a smile
"Can't wait to see that segment on Deku today!" Uraraka said full of excitement
"Its about time." Todoroki said
"Come up here then I suppose." Mt. Lady said begrudgingly
"Thank you for having me." Midoriya said taking the stage with
"First off show us your super move." Mt. Lady said sternly
"I don't have one I'm sorry." Midoriya replied
"You're going to be a hero but you don't even have a super move?" Mt Lady said with a scoff
"I'm quirkless so I can't have one." Midoriya said
"Well you have to show me something! Come at me and pin me down if you can." Mt Lady said taking a fighting stance
Midoriya looked over at Aizawa but only to see a man curled up in his sleeping bag.
"Here I come." Midoriya said
Vigilance x Slaughter
Midoriya shot towards and pinned her down in an instant without giving her a chance to react.
"Grr." Mt Lady growled and began to grow slightly
"That's enough ." Aizawa said erasing her quirk
"Hmpf well that's not so bad." Mt Lady said dusting herself off
"It's still amazing to see someone move like that." Tokoyami said
"Without a quirk too." Kaminari added
"So you're going to rely on support items then." Mt Lady asked
"Yes. " Midoriya replied
"Okay well pretend you just defeated a villain and they ask you about the future." Mt Lady said
There was a pause and everyone grew silent waiting for Midoriya's response.
"I'll try my best for whats to come." Midoriya said with cold confidence
"Well it's not bad." Mt Lady said annoyed
"The line of someone who is fully prepared to embrace the future." Aizawa thought as he looked at the once suicidal boy now anxious for the future ahead of him
"SO MANLY" Kirishima said with a tear
"Well done Midoriya!" Tenya said enthusiastically
That night. . .
Midoriya sat at the edge of a tall building taking in the cold air and thinking of what Todoroki told him and Bakugou.
"Want to join me at Endeavor's office for our internships?" Todoroki asked
"What to do." Midoriya said as he looked down at the street below
Midoriya jumped off the building and grappled to safety and decided to blow off some steam and take down some people up to no good.
"Just stay down." Midoriya said to the criminal who was trying to rob a man
"Yo." A man said from the dark
"Who's there?" Midoriya asked taking a step back
The man launched an attack that Midoriya was just barely able to dodge.
"Too fast!" Midoriya thought as he prepared to escape
"Calm down just wanted to see how good you were." Hawks said appearing out from the dark
"And an attack aimed at my face was the best way to test me?" Midoriya said annoyed
"It wouldn't have hurt if it connected." Hawks said laughing as he walked up to Midoriya
"So what do you want?" Midoriya asked still on the defense
Midoriya knew that he was no match for hawks speed or movement.
"Well just wanted to ask you something is all Midoriya" Hawks said putting his arm on Midoriya shoulder
"How much do you know." Midoriya said pushing Hawks away
"Hey hey woe calm down I've known since about the beginning" Hawks explained
"Your wings right? I should have known, so you put that bounty out knowing full well who I was." Midoriya asked finally relaxing
"Yea I just wanted to see how you would react and you didn't disappoint." Hawks said with a smile
Hawks put his arm over Midoriya's shoulder in a friendly manner and spoke.
"Listen that Deika city business was nasty but what's to come is worse now that the club reached its donation goal so train hard kid." Hawks said with a serious face
Midoriya looked over to look at Hawks with wide eyes.
"You might be the person to tip the scales." Hawks said as he flew away
"It can't be." Midoriya said under his breath
Hope you enjoyed the chapter :D
A/N Happy new year guys! So we have more or less caught up with the manga at this point so I'm going to take my time adding some filler about the other characters and give them their own side stories about how they felt about Midoriya in the past up till now. I want the manga to have a few more chapters while I work on these side stories.
One more thing! At first, this story was completely different and had a much darker and violent tone to it so I scrapped that idea and wrote this one but I have recently revisited that story and made some changes, I wanted to upload it since I had a few chapters already written. If it is received well I'll continue that story as well as this one.
