Hope you enjoy the chapter :D
"Midoriya, are you okay? You spaced out the whole period." Uraraka asked Midoriya
The class period had already ended but Midoriya was just sitting in his seat staring at the board. Midoriya was murmuring to himself when he finally came back.
"Huh? Sorry about that, I just got lost in thought." Midoriya said as he quickly packed his things
"Don't push yourself too hard okay?" Uraraka said with a smile
Aizawa looked up from his book and glanced over at Midoriya who seemed more mysterious than usual.
Midoriya was heading back to his dorm room to get some work done when he heard something.
"You can hear me. I know you can" A dry cackle said
Midoriya quickly turned around only to be met with an empty hallway.
"Hey was that one of you guys?" Midoriya whispered as he walked to his dorm
"Don't know-don't know. . not us." The voices replied
This voice was a singular entity unlike the voices which communicated in unison.
"Learn! You need to learn to use us." The voices said repeatedly
"Hey Midoriya we were wondering if you wanted to help with some of the Christmas stuff that-" Kirishima was about to ask before he was interrupted by Midoriya
"I can't, I'm sorry." Midoriya said as he went up to his dorm
Midoriya went to sleep early that night and was met with a dream that would change the world.
"Hey, how are you holding up?" A skinny man asked
"You're the original holder of One For All." Midoriya said
Midoriya looked down at his nonexistent body and looked up at the skinny man.
"What do you want?" Midoriya asked breaking the silence
"Just a checkup." The skinny man replied
"I'm doing fine and I think they are too." Midoriya said as he pointed to the large crowd
"Glad to see you have reached an understanding with them." The skinny man said with a warm smile
"Yeah well, they aren't so bad. I think." Midoriya said as he looked over at the crowd
"I'm glad you were able to find some common ground with the ones trapped here" The skinny man said with a smile
The skinny man fiddled with his fingers and spoke up.
"Listen my time is nearly up but I have to tell you that something is wrong, I feel something entering this space but I'm still not sure what it is so be on the lookout.I know you may be having trouble with all this but stay strong and you'll be just fine." The skinny man said before he disappeared like dust in the wind
"Gone he's gone. We can talk now." The crowd said quickly
Midoriya was worried as to what they had to say and why it needed to be kept a secret from that man.
"Come closer. Closer you must not let others hear." The crowd whispered
"Others?" Midoriya thought
Midoriya made his way to the front of the crowd and saw a little girl with a flower in her hand signaling Midoriya over.
"What do you need to tell me that's so-" Midoriya was about to ask when his eyes widened
The little girl giggled and whispered into Midoriya's ear with a smile.
"I. .can't do that it's impossible to-." Midoriya retorted quickly before he was interrupted
The little girl giggled once more and continued.
Midoriya staggered backward and began to process what he was just told by the little girl.
"But why?" Midoriya asked
"It must be broken so we can be free." The voices said before fading away into the darkness
Midoriya gasped and he woke up to the sound of birds chirping in the distance and the warm sun in his face.
"What a nightmare." Midoriya said as he looked at his ceiling
Midoriya knew it was possible to do as they asked but aside from being extremely hard to pull off, he would have to break his only rule.
"What a shit show." Midoriya sighed as he got dressed
The Christmas eve party was today but along with that was the sudden arrival of internships.
In Nezus office. . .
"So where do we send Midoriya?" Nezu asked aloud
"We could send him to intern with a smaller agency." All Might suggested
"They won't take him." Aizawa sighed
Midoriya was not trusted by many heroes even after being cleared by Nezu.
"I have an idea but I'm going to need your permission, principal." Aizawa said as he took a sip of his coffee
Later that day .
Midoriya was the only one not enjoying the party as the words of the little girl in his dream kept repeating itself in his head.
"Hey, you okay?" Tenya asked
"Hm, yea yea I'm fine. Just wondering about the internships is all." Midoriya replied
"So have any idea where you're headed?" Kaminari asked Midoriya
Midoriya shook his head and looked down at his cup of soda.
"Tsuyu and I are going back to Ryukyu's agency." Uraraka chimed in
"Sorry we're late." Aizawa said as he walked in with Eri in a Christmas themed dress
"We were just talking about the upcoming internships Sensei." Seto explained
"Speaking of internships. Midoriya you are coming with me for your internships so be ready." Aizawa said
"woe with Aizawa." Seto said surprised
"Good luck Midoriya" Mina said taking a sip of her soda in remembrance of Midoriya jokingly
The class laughed at Mina's joke and let Midoriya and Aizawa have their privacy to talk about the internship.
"Thank you for having me." Midoriya said as he bowed his head
"Alright, you can cut that out." Aizawa said
The rest of the party went without incident until late that night when everyone was asleep.
"Goodnight everyone!" Mina said with a yawn
"Merry Christmas mom." Midoriya said before hanging up the phone
2 am. . .
Midoriya was standing outside in the patch of trees away from the dorms.
"Ok, I can do this... Probably." Midoriya said as he took a deep breath
All For One
The pain was unbearable and Midoriya felt as if his head was being torn up from the inside.
"Ughhh Shit." Midoriya groaned in pain
Midoriya was having doubts about going through with the plan and subjecting himself to this torture until he heard a voice.
"Someone new. Someone new is here." the voices notified Midoriya
"I can feel you." the dry voice cackled
"Who is this?" Midoriya asked in pain
"It hasn't been that long has it?" The dry voice sneered
"Shigaraki? Then that means you." Midoriya was about to say when he was cut off
All of sudden the pain disappeared and Midoriya felt a chill go down his spine.
"Yup I'm getting myself a biiiig power up and soon this whole world is going to burn with your annoying ass in it! So stay alive until then okay? See ya later." Shigaraki said laughing
"He is gone. Not connected to us like Midoriya but getting closer." The voices explained
Midoriya laid down on the cold grass and caught his breath.
"So what do I do?" Midoriya asked
"Move forward." The voices said
"Okay ill try." Midoriya said in between breaths
1 month later . . .
Midoriya was on a rooftop with Aizawa patrolling the city of Hosu at night.
"Did I ever tell you about some vigilante I knew a few years back?" Aizawa said as he took a sip of a coffee he had recently bought
Midoriya knew of a few vigilante's but like most, they all went quiet after some time and vanished.
"Damn kid went by the dumbest name, The Crawler he called himself." Aizawa chuckled
"There aren't many vigilante's nowadays. I think I'm the only one that popped up recently in years." Midoriya replied
"Yea they all sort of disappeared didn't they? I hope the kid is okay, he had what it took to be a hero but it wasn't meant to be." Aizawa sighed
"Something on your mind?" Midoriya asked
Aizawa closed his eyes and stood up quickly facing Midoriya.
"Who's side are you really on Midoriya?" Aizawa asked firmly
Midoriya knew he would be asked this question eventually but not from Aizawa.
"If I said I'm on the side of the greater good what would you say?" Midoriya replied as he slowly got up
"I'd say you're full of shit. I've seen you using All For One in secret! Got a taste of the power and now you want the whole pot?!" Aizawa said angrily taking a few steps forward
"What can I say to calm you down." Midoriya asked as he got ready for a fight
"Explain to me what you're doing in secret." Aizawa said
Midoriya paused for a second and thought of what to say, he couldn't get caught now.
"Lie." the voices whispered
"I'm learning to use the quirk so I can return what has been stolen. The voices have told me its possible if I train hard enough." Midoriya explained
Aizawa paused to look at Midoriya's body movement to see if he was nervous.
"How do you know if they are telling the truth?" Aizawa asked
"I don't but it's worth a try wouldn't you say?" Midoriya replied
"We have a situation at the mall. Can any heroes or nearby police respond?" the policewoman asked over the radio
"Situation. let's go." Aizawa said as he pointed the direction they needed to go
Midoriya was following behind the hero when he was stopped by Aizawa who turned around suddenly.
"If I find out you're a traitor, Ill personally throw you Tartarus myself got it." Aizawa said angrily
Midoriya didn't say a word and simply followed Aizawa to the destination. The rest of that night Aizawa and Midoriya didn't say another word to each other. However many civilians came to agree that they were the best duo they had ever seen, taking down villains swiftly and quietly.
2 weeks later. . .
"We got a joint op with one of your classmate's group internship agencies so be on your best behavior." Aizawa said as he opened the door to the large building of Ryukyu
Midoriya had grown quiet in recent weeks because of his recent talk with Aizawa.
"How are you doing edgeshot?" Aizawa asked
"I'm fine and thanks again for helping us out with this mission." Edgeshot said as he bowed
"Not a problem. How are the students?" Aizawa asked as he looked over at Sero, Kaminari, and Shiozaki
"They are good, they move well with Kamui Woods and Mt lady." Edgeshot said
"That's good to hear." Aizawa sighed in relief
Edgeshot looked over at Midoriya who was sitting alone at a table staring into space.
"What about your intern?" Edgeshot asked
Aizawa sighed and looked over his shoulder to take a look at the teen.
"Sometimes I think he is too skilled for his good, the kid has good intentions but I think he forgets how we do things on this side from time to time." Aizawa explained
"So what's the job?" Aizawa asked
"We found a large CRC cell in the outskirts of Hosu and we needed just a few more hands for the raid." Edgeshot said
"Sounds good." Aizawa replied
The students that were with Edgeshots team got in position outside the large mansion.
"Did you guys talk to Midoriya by any chance today?" Kaminari asked his classmates
"No he was off on his own most of the time, I tried talking to him but our conversation went cold." Sero replied
"I also could not find an appropriate moment to approach him." Shiozaki added
"Ok guys lets be on alert we are going to start this up soon." Mt Lady said
"Listen up we need to capture these guys and try your best not to let any escape." Kamui explained
"Aizawa are you and Midoriya position?" Edgeshot asked
Midoriya and Aizawa were to start things off by breaking in and taking out as many as they could silently.
"Still can't believe we're working with that kid." Mt Lady said in an annoyed tone
"We are going in." Aizawa said over the radio
The mansion was quiet and the raid began with Midoriya and Aizawa in the front lines. This was Midoriya's first real mission as a student of U.A but much to Aizawa's surprise Midoriya was still as cold and calculated as ever.
"I'm breaching." Midoriya said quietly on the radio
Midoriya threw a flashbang into the room and instantly took out the two CRC members by slamming one member's head into the ground and the other being punched right in the jaw knocking him out cold.
"Two down. Moving to the next room." Midoriya said
Aizawa looked at Midoriya's handiwork impressed but also afraid of the monster Midoriya truly could be if he were an enemy.
"Ok, we've cleared the top floor of the mansion." Aizawa said over the radio
Edgeshot took a moment to process what Aizawa said.
"Really?" Edgeshot asked
"Yea were moving down. You guys should begin your assault on my go." Aizawa said quietly over the radio
smashed down a large chunk of the mansion so that the entrance was completely exposed. The rest of the team began to take out several CRC members on the main floor.
"These guys don't stand a chance." Kamui said as he took out several members in one go
The main floor was soon secured and a total of 24 members were restrained by the students and pro heroes.
"Ok were moving up to you guys Aizawa." Edgeshot said over the radio
"No need. We- I mean Midoriya took care of them already." Aizawa replied
"There were more than 30 members up there." Mt. Lady said over the radio as she followed edgeshot and the others to regroup
In the middle of the room stood Midoriya standing over all of the members he had taken out by himself.
"My god." Kamui thought as he looked at all the unconscious bodies
"This kid?" Mt. lady thought as she felt a shiver
Edgeshot turned off his radio and walked over to Aizawa and pulled him off to the side.
"Hey look I understand that he is good but it looks like a monster tore this place up." Edgeshot whispered
"He told me he just needed to blow off some steam." Aizawa sighed as he looked over his shoulder
"I wouldn't want to see this guy angry if this was just blowing off 'some steam' " Edgeshot said
"Good job down there." Midoriya said to the students
"I was kind of scared but when I knew you were up here with only Aizawa I had to step up!" Kaminari said
Midoriya smiled and patted Kaminari in the back and praised the rest of his students on a job well done and followed Aizawa outside for some fresh air.
"Midoriya is quite skilled is he not?" Shiozaki said as soon Midoriya left the room
"I don't see myself getting close to him anytime soon guys." Sero said as he looked at the 20 restrained men
A few days before the end of winter break. . .
3pm. . .
Midoriya was listening to some tips Aizawa had for him until they both heard a scream from the next street over.
"You hear that?" Aizawa asked as he ran toward the scream
Midoriya nodded and quickly followed behind Aizawa to find out what happened.
"Woe is that him?!" The woman asked the man next to her
"Yea its Hawks!" The man said as he quickly pulled out his phone
Hawks had taken down a man trying to rob an old lady on the street, Aizawa and Midoriya were about to leave since the situation was under control until Hawks called out to them.
"Yo Eraserhead!" Hawks called out with a big smile
Aizawa closed his eyes and exhaled before turning around to face the winged hero.
"Hello Hawks." Aizawa said greeting the Hero
"I heard you and your apprentice there arrive!" Hawks said as he waved at Midoriya
"It's an honor to meet you" Midoriya said
"Same here kid." Hawks said with a smile
Midoriya knew Hawks recognized him but they had to act as if this was their first meeting.
"Seems like you have this under control so we are going to head out Hawks." Aizawa said
"Wait I gotta give you guys something." Hawks said as he pulled out two books and tossed them over to Aizawa and Midoriya
"What's this?" Midoriya asked as he caught the book
"Ever heard of the special abilities liberation front?" Hawks asked with a smile
Aizawa and Midoriya's ears perked up when they heard that name. Pro heroes were usually in the loop when it came to usual raids and operations but a few select hero's such Aizawa who specialized in night and undercover ops were usually told months in advance about potential dangers.
"Yea here check it out." Hawks said as his face turned serious
Hawks knew Midoriya and Aizawa knew all about the Liberation army but he had to be careful as to not expose himself because the Liberation had planted secret audio bugs on him.
"I gave one to Endeavor, Shoto, and that one kid with explosions but Endeavor can be a slowpoke at times so tell him all about it later yea?" Hawks said with a smile
"Thank you Ill read it when I have some spare time." Midoriya replied as he put the book in his small pack
"See you, round guys." Hawks said as he flew away
"Bye." Aizawa said
Midoriya and Aizawa went to a rooftop to talk in private about what just happened.
"Find anything yet?" Aizawa asked
"Well there are a lot of highlights in random places, I think it's a code." Midoriya replied as he flipped through the pages of the book
After a few hours Aizawa had finally cracked the code that Hawks had left behind.
"My god." Aizawa said as he closed the book and brushed his hair back
"Figure something out?" Midoriya asked as he closed his book
"The league has taken over the Liberation army and we have 4 months to get ready." Aizawa said as he let out an exasperated sigh
"Damn. Did it say how many people they have?" Midoriya asked as he handed Aizawa a water bottle from his pack
Aizawa took a sip of his water, laid on his back and closed his eyes feeling the fresh wind
"Over a hundred thousand." Aizawa said
Midoriya closed his eyes and fell onto the floor like Aizawa.
"This stuff is too stressful, how do you do it?" Midoriya asked
"I sleep and drink protein shakes, I'm sure I've shaved off 2 years of my life from this stress." Aizawa chuckled
"You and me both red eyes." Midoriya replied jokingly
Aizawa let out a laugh and watched the clouds in the sky.
"I think I'm going to take a nap here." Aizawa said
Midoriya looked over at Aizawa and decided to take a nap as well. Surprisingly when they both woke up from their nap they agreed it was the most relaxed they had been for a while.
