Hey there this is my first fic so please read and comment so I know if there's anthings I can do to improve.
"Im sorry but without a quirk you cant be a hero." All mights words continuously rang throughout Izuku's mind ever since he heard them.
"Allmight and kachan were right I cant be a hero without a quirk, I'm useless." Izuku' s mind has been reminiscing over all might's words from earlier that day as well as Bakugo's words about him being useless.
Just then in the distance Izuku heard screams and due to his natural instinct to run towards heros hero and their battles with villans, when he finally got to the area where he heard the screams come from he saw a massive crowd of people watching the fight from a distance for safety. "What's going on?" Izuku questioned to no one in particular "Some villain took a kid hostage and is using his quirk to control the kids quirck and keep the pro hero's at bay." A random citizen answered his question.
'I should leave me being here dosent matter I can't be a hero' Izuku thought but just as he was about to turn and leave he saw who the villain was, it was the same villan Allmight had saved him from, and he was holding Bakugo hostage.
In that split second when he saw who the hostage was he remembered how he felt when the sludge villain tried to take his own body, and that was all it took for Izuku' s body to stop obeying his brain and in that moment he only had one thought 'never again' he immediately run through the police and hero barricade and towards the villain as he run time seemed to slow for him and his green irises started flashing silver.
The pro hero's were calling out to him "Stop it's too dangerous!" Yelled Death Arms "Hey get out of there before it's too late!" Backdraft yelled out.
As he ran he unconsciously started ignoring the protests for him to leave the ups to the pros, he started gathering energy in his palms which formed into spheres, those watching were shocked seeing such a power and they all assumed that he just had a strong quirk, meawhile Bakugo who was beimy forced to watch all of this unfold was losing her mind 'I can't die here, I won't I still need to become a hero' Bakugo thought in distress, Izuku threw the orbs at the sludge villain and while he managed to dodge most of them one made contact on his eye. 'So his eyes are the only solid part of his body, which means that that is where I should aim.' Izuku thought quickly came to this conclusion.
Realizing that Bakugo was probably suffocating Izuku wanted no to in repeatedly blasting the villain eyes, until he charged up a powerful attack and blasted the sludge villain off of Bakugo.
Slowly realising what he has just done Izuku decided to make himself scarce before his face could be seen and identified. He quickly departed bt flight.
"Stop." Death arms called out to izuku who at this point couldn't hear a thing being said, "Get back here." Mt lady called trying to get his attention but he was already gone. "Who was that kid?" a random bystander asked "Not a clue but he was definitely not a kid with a provisional licence for hero work." Some civilians started discussing what they had just wittnesed.
The hero's were dumbfounded here they were unable to help a child indangered by a villain but a random kid was able to do what none of them could do "This child, no this hero was ready to die for someone else now thats commendable, don't see many kids like that nowadays." Death Arm's commented to his fellow hero's "Yeah can't say you do." Kaumi Woods added.
Izuku didn't know it yet but his actions were acctualy being recorded by quiet a number of civilians and would soon be uploaded to the internet.
After Izuku escaped the hero's and law enforcement began the clean-up as well as making sure that Bakugo was ok.
When Izuku got back to his home he quickly hurried to his room to think about what had just happened, "What was that, I couldn't stop myself and that power where did it come from it can't be a quirk because the doctors said a person couldn't get one afree age 4." Izuku was panicking and hyperventilating out of stress and confusion.
"Ok calm down Izuku think carefully." Izuku said as he tried to calm himself 'let me think ok firat I need to understand what happened' he thought while trying to regulate his breathing. "Ok let me try to make sense of what just happened." he decided.
1 Hour Later
"Ok so in order after I left School I was walking back when that sludge villain attacked me and I thought I was going to die but I didn't thanks to Allmight, then after that I asked him if I could be a hero without a quirk and he told me I couldn't 'which totally sucks' then as I was walking home I ended up at another site where that sludge villain was attacking and once I saw him holding kachan I couldn't move at all and then out of nowhere I start running up to the villain and start attacking him with powers I didn't know I had."
Just then Izuku caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror and saw what he looked like while his appearance was mostly unchanged there were a few noticeable changes, his body was radiating with energy giving what appeared to be a silver aura around him his hair also had the aura around it making it appear to float on its own as well as appear black and silver not green and black like normal and the irises of his eyes were silver in colour not their usual green. Noticing all these changes Izuku realised that if anyone had glotten a good look at his face he was screwed, just then his aura vanished and his appearance returned to normal. 'How did I do that, I'm going to have to look into this more.' Izuku thought.
After thinking it through Izuku felt a bit more calm and as far as he knew no one outside of the people who were there saw him and what he did so not a lot of people will be looking for him.
After he had called down Izuku started his normal after school routine which consisted of him doing his homework making dinner for him himself and doing chores, later that night after Izuku was done with his stuff he decided to watch tv and just managed to catch the news as it was starting, "And our top story today a young girl was being held hostage by a villain earlier today and while no hero's could get to her to help her this sole boy took it soon him self to help her." a picture of Izuku from durring the fight is shown "many of the other civilians that were on site had recorded video of the encounter and the video is currently trending on social media, the pro hero community is currently searching for this child to thank him for his help as well as warn him against using his quirk in public again lest he face jail time, in other news ..." the spokesperson was cut off as Izuku turned off his tv, he had started hyperventilating again until he reminded himself that people probably couldn't find him since his appearance was so largely different.
"I need to know what's going on!" He emidiatly got his laptop found the video watched and noticed how he fought it looked more like he was trying to survive rather than win, "Huh it seem more like a survival instinct than a fighting style." He thought out loud to himself. "I need to get control of this before it happens again, which means I need to train to be able to handle this power since the video clearly showed how I want realy that in control nor was I fighting so well, and if this happens again i might not be so lucky." Izuku thought and emidiatly got to work thinking up how he was going to train himself.
"I'm going to need a bunch of different types of training regimes to get my body in shape not to mention learn more fighting styles and how to gain control of that power instead of just going all auto mode whenever I fight." Izuku spent the rest of the night planing out his training regime to a point where he would be pushed to his limits without killing himself.
The training regime was:
40 push ups every day morning and evening.
60 sit ups three times a day.
100 pull ups every morning.
50 squats.
20 km run.
Meditation for an hour, to help his self control over his power
Lifting heavy objects to build strength, he figured he could go to dagouba beach and try to clean up all the trash that was there.
With his daily training regime done he got some rest since he would start with the training the very next day, his grades were good so he decided that he could afford to fall asleep in class without falling behind at least until his body got used to the amount of exercise he was going to be doing.
That might as Izuku slept in his mind, "Where am I?" Izuku asked as he stood in the center of a pure white room he noticed a mirror on the wall and walked towards it "What's this doing here?" Suddenly he saw himself in the mirror but it was not him he saw staring back it was the other him the one with the silver aura "Don't be afraid." The reflection started "Who are you?" He asked "I am your subconscious the one who awakeneed your dormant power, and before you ask, I am here to answer your questions." So does that mean your part of my quirk?" Izuku asked the reflection. "No the power you weild is not a quirk it is purely yours, but yes I am indeed here to help you master your power." It replied "So your sort of like a teacher to help me control it." He stated more than asked "Yes you can learn to control it over time."
"I may not have full control of our body but I know it's full potential and it's limits better that anyone but that's not what you realy want to know is it?"
Izuku shook his head 'no' "You want to know what that power is correct, it's a power derived from a persons qi and everyone can access it but many have forgotten how over the years since quirks began appearing."
"So how strong does that make me?"he asked with curiosity.
"Currently the power you wield is on par with a gods power but until you can properly control it you won't be able to have full control in that state, that's where I come in I'm going to be like a co pilot until you gain control, you must train to condition your body and mind to control it."
"So what do I need to do to train and how can I get more control of that power?" Izuku said with conviction.
"There are two aspects the physical and mental for the physicalto need to train to build both muscle and endurance in your body so normal exercises at high intensity should do it, for the mental aspect you must master your qi, you may think that you can only use it while in that state but your wrong you can use it regardless of what state you are in the power was called ultra instinct. To gain control of it there are three stages the first which you have already experienced is called omen this is the equivalent of a reveal that the power resides within you, the second is controlled release where in you can control the power but only for a short amount of time, and lastly mastered where you have complete control, this might be a lot to take in but I had to be quick before you awoke."
"Now to understand qi you need to reach deep inside of you and force the energy dormant in you to surface. It won't be easy but you will learn over time, now I need you to do something." He finally finished. "What else is there that I should know?"
"You can unconsciously use ultra instinct to learn almost anything, this is because a small part of it is now permanently active in you it will allow you to avoid dangerous situations."
"So I can use it to study anything and permanently remember it so sorta like I can't ever forget it if it's important."
"Yes, I'm sorry but it seem our time is up your waking up." Mirror Izuku said to Izuku.
Izuku opened his eyes to see the all might themed wallpaper of his bedroom it used to be something that have him comfort but now it only have him rage, his hero, his idol the person who he thought would never tell him he couldn't be a hero betrayed him.
"I don't need him, I don't need any of them, I'll show them, I'll be the greatest hero ever." Realising that how he was thinking was more like a villains mind he quickly stoped himself and corrected his methodical approach to being a hero, "No that's not right I'm going to be a hero to protect people not to prove others wrong that's not what being a hero is about, I need to remember what being a hero is all about." he had a look of conviction on his face.
At that moment he heard the front door to his house open, so he goes to investigate who/what it was, thankfully it wasn't the cops like he suspected instead it was simply his mother who had come home from a long day of work as a receptionist at a hero agencys offI've in town.
"Evening mom how was work?" Izuku said as she entered the apartment.
"Oh Izuku, evening and work was fine but I'm just so tired." she said after she noticed Izuku.
"How come your so tired today compared to any other day?" Izuku asked though he had a suspicion as to what kept her busy.
"Oh not much 'yawn' just a new vigilante that popped up today, they had me sorting through eyes witness accounts and testimonials of the event but so fat all they know is that he's male and has silver hair and an incredibly powerful quirk, they said it happened right here in our part of the city too I had hoped you didn't get caught up in any of that."she said but it was clear that she would rather be sleeping.
"No I wasn't close to that but I did catch the tail end of the aftermath at the site." he said.
"I'm just going to go sleep now." she said in an exhausted time of voice. As she walked down the hallway to her bedroom.
'Sigh' "Mom I wish you didn't have to work so much just for is to get by." Izuku said in a slightly annoyed time because his mother had to work so incredibly hard just to make ends meat. Bit even more annoyed that he had just lied to his mother he hated it but he couldn't let her get involved with this new information and this new world he had stepped into.
"I'm going to help one of these days, I'm going to stop being helpless and start making money so u can ginaly take some time to relax and rest." he said making a vow to help better his and his mother's lives.
