Holy Shit, I'm sorry about the time gap. Been a little busy.
Okay, I could have done better on that last chapter.
I don't know how many of you can see it because Argo said that they were having problems. Thanks FFN.
Anyways, I'm sorry about the quality of the last chapter. I'll make this one better. There's a little time before the USJ. Cannon doesn't make the entire thing "First week: quirk test, battle training, villain attack. Second week: sports festival, Hosu incident. Third week: Midterms." That means there's more time. There's room for a couple of chapters between 2v2's and the USJ. I'll try to make the best out of it.
This chapter will focus on Iida and Izuku/ Ikku. Iida has started coming out of his robotic shell, so he'll continue to do that. A little bit of fluff, maybe? You'll have to read on to find out.
Here is a reminder that hate speech isn't tolerated. If you say anything in a review/PM, I will find you. I consider myself good at hacking, so I'll be able to find you. :3
Also Benji the Monocat, Hello! If you're talking about the story, yes! It did come out of nowhere! I posted almost every day! So there you go! XD all you want!
Anyway let's continue.
~OIO~
After everybody had their turn in the 2 versus 2 mock battles, the school day had ended. Of course, Izuku had been using a recording function in his helmet to gather information on his classmates. He wanted to create a new series of quirk journals. All in all, there wasn't much he paid attention to. The girl with almost no clothes on seemed to be able to create things from her skin, so it made sense that she had as much skin showing as possible.
The kid with the diaper was wimpy, and he couldn't use his quirk as creatively as it could have been used. Honestly it was a little depressing that he only set traps. It seemed that the one boy and girl only had quirks that gave them a slight edge. The invisible girl couldn't conceal herself from area attacks that hit everything, and the other guy just had a tail, but he did seem skilled in martial arts.
Two tone had another quirk, one that he didn't want to show off. But it became evident to Izuku that the student was hiding something when he melted the ice he created and turned it into steam.
The redhead with horns could power his way through anything, it seemed that his quirk was the perfect defense, until he got hit by the alien girl's acid. And there was also the others, but he was spent. The fight with Bakugo drained his stamina. Taking a hit from Bakugo's gauntlet wasn't easy. In fact, Switching into Ikku saved him. He had had some minor burns even after deflecting the blast, and the time gave his male body the ability to heal. Still, he was tired, he needed to get a hang of healing. It took a lot out of him. He barely heard All Might ask about the MVP of the last fight as he crumpled.
After waking up in Recovery Girls office, he got a harsh lecture about maintaining his energy. Walking out of the office he spotted Tenya and Uraraka sitting and waiting for him. And now, they were on their way home.
"So Izuku," Uraraka said. "What happened between you and Bakugo? Iida and I heard the battle and felt shaking. There was also a scream from someone else, sounded like a special move. But the voice that said it was a girls."
"I'm sure it was just distorted because of the explosions." Tenya said.
"Tenya," Izuku said, grabbing his hand. "She knows about most of everything, it can't hurt to show her the rest."
"The rest?" Uraraka asked, as Tenya nodded with a face of embarrassment. "What do you mean by that?"
"Look, I'll show you at Tenyas house." Izuku said before turning back to his boyfriend. "Is that alright?"
"I'm sure it's fine." Tenya said. "I'm sorry for trying to cover for you Izuku."
"Tenya, it's fine." Izuku chuckled. "I'm going to have to show everyone eventually, but right now, the staff are sorting out the ones who aren't accepting."
They continued on until they reached the Iida residence.
"Okay, so what is it that you need to tell me?" Uraraka asked.
"This." Izuku replied, before changing into Ikku.
Ochako was slightly startled, but then her face lit up.
"Izuku! You're soooo pretty!"
Ikku laughed. "I prefer Ikku when I'm female."
"Oh, right." Ochako said. "Sorry, I didn't ask about names or anything."
"Uraraka, I need you to keep this a secret. Okay?"
"Why? It's so cool!"
Ikku and Tenya sighed as they began explaining to the gravity girl. About why the entire thing was a secret, the beating Izuku got when people found out, and about the recovery.
"You've been affected so much, by such a small amount of time. Fifteen minutes. And you almost died." Uraraka was tearing up. Her voice was shaky. "And it was just because of your quirk. Well, I think that you're great. You don't need to think about that anymore, you have me and Tenya."
Izuku chuckled. "That's true! I have you guys now."
The friends talked for a while before finally going to their own homes. They all ate dinner, and then went to sleep, awaiting whatever was to come the next day.
~OIO~
Shoto Todoroki had been through a lot, he had been beaten, insulted, scarred, and emotionally destroyed by his father. He had a bad time waking up that morning. On his way downstairs he had tripped and fell. His breakfast was burnt. And now he had Izuku Midoriya following him around, asking questions.
"Todoroki? Like Enji Todoroki AKA Endeavour? How did you get an ice quirk? Where did you train? Who's your favorite hero?"
Just as he was about to tell the green haired student to shut up he heard a question that made him realize the analytical skills of Izuku.
"Your quirk, when you heat things up, is that all that happens? Are there any flames?"
Todoroki looked down, then walked into the classroom.
They went about their normal class routine. But that afternoon, instead of All Might, they were being taught by Midnight and Aizawa.
"Okay all of you, today we're doing 1 on 1 battles, mainly in a ring, where we can analyze your fighting styles." Aizawa said. "You need to use your quirk for things you don't normally think of, such as Iida using his quirk to increase strength instead of speed."
Two students went onto the ring. The person who won got to stay. The person who lost rotates out.
After seeing Bakugo wipe the floor with about six students, Izuku watched as Todoroki stepped up. The battle began with a wall of ice. Bakugo blew it up. It continued like that until Bakugo couldn't generate anymore sweat. A solid five minutes of back and forth attacks.
Izuku was next, stepping up, he faced Todoroki.
"I want to see your other quirk Todoroki." Izuku said.
"Never." The boy responded.
The first attack that Todoroki sent out was an Ice wall, aimed to freeze Izuku in place. Izuku easily countered.
"Use it." He said again, standing still.
"No, I won't ever use it in combat." Was the response. Todoroki sent another wall of ice at Izuku, only for it to be shattered with a punch.
"Use it! No Hero is a one trick pony!" Izuku said again, this time anger present in his voice.
"NO!" Todoroki barked. "I won't use his power."
"Todoroki! You need to stop half assing this training. What hero won't use their quirk because of a grudge? What kind of hero would put lives at risk for the sake of their own attitude?"
"Stop. You know nothing!" Todoroki snarled, sending out another ice flow.
"I had to keep my power secret for years because if people found out they would beat me. I kept it to myself to be safe. You don't have that problem. The only thing I don't know is how you decided to become your father by letting grudges get in the way of work." Izuku said. "Now, USE IT!"
Todoroki hung his head, his attacks stopped. "Never compare me to that monster."
"I'll stop when you stop becoming that monster."
Todoroki snapped. He could feel the fire wash through his looked up at his classmate with a murderous grin that scared everyone watching.
"You want to see a monster?" He spoke in a harsh tone, before holding up one hand and summoning a fireball.
Something shook through Izuku. The fireball, It was getting bigger, and hotter. Hot enough to burn bones, hot enough to cause irreparable damage. His shoulder was itching, no, BURNING. He couldn't get away. They were hitting him, killing him. Why had he pushed Todoroki that far?
Tenya noticed something was wrong when Izuku fell to his knees.
"Sensei! Something's wrong!" He shouted.
Aizawa activated his quirk, just as Todoroki was about to hurl the fireball. The massive force of destruction puttered out.
Tenya ran to Izuku, who was curled up on the floor of the arena, rocking back and forth, muttering over and over to himself.
"I'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreakI'mnotworthlessI'mnotafreak…"
And then Izuku passed out.
~OIO~
Todoroki sat with Tenya as they watched Izuku sleep in the nurses office. His breathing had returned to normal. And he wasn't shaking or twitching. Every so often he would toss in the hospital bed, muttering about burning.
Bakugo entered the room and sat down next to him.
"Is he okay?" Bakugo asked in a quiet voice.
"Does it look like he's okay?" Tenya responded shakily.
Todoroki was wide eyed. "He's right, I'm just like him. I used his power, I used it because I started hating him. I couldn't stop myself, he said that I was just like him. How could he have known what I went through? I have to walk around with this scar on my face…"
He continued muttering to the two at his side about why he lost control, about why Izuku angered him, about how no one knew what it was like to be him.
"Shut up Half 'n Half." Bakugo whispered in anger. When Todoroki looked at the explosive student he saw tears in his eyes. "If anyone would know about abuse and scars, it would be Izuku."
"What do you-"
"He spent half his life being bullied because he told others he was quirkless. He didn't want them to be jealous." Bakugo lied. "He was beaten every day, told he was useless. Then I let slip about his quirk and everyone got mad and-"
Bakugo was crying while Tenya rubbed his back with one hand.
"What happened? Couldn't he fight back if people attacked him?" Todoroki asked.
"He used to be my best friend." Bakugo sniffed. "He had the resilience to power through, but some days I would see him staring out the window of our classroom, his eyes would seem hollow. I guess people telling you that you're useless for years will get to you."
"But then, what happened?"
"When the class found out about Izuku," Tenya spoke. "They all ganged together and beat him, even the teacher joined in."
"The only reason he survived was because he was used to people hitting him. He minimized the amount of damage he took by moving slightly every so often. But they could've killed them if he hadn't eventually used his quirk."
"But then, why the fire?"
"One of the kids had a fire quirk. They could control and create fire like you, just not as much."
Bakugo said, more tears coming to his eyes. "He got burned up pretty bad, I don't know how he recovered from that. But that day was the last time I saw him before UA. saw him in the changing room once. He doesn't show it, but his arm is-"
Bakugo couldn't take it as he broke down. This was odd, especially because he acted so confident in class, unless he was around Izuku. Now Todoroki knew why.
"Bakugo." A voice said.
All three looked at the hospital bed to see Izuku looking at his ex best friend, a look of forgiveness in his eyes.
"You've changed a lot." Izuku said hoarsely. "I thought you would have joined up with those bullies after I left, and My heart fell when I saw you with them. I can't forgive you fully yet. It won't be the same as it was years ago. But it's a start."
Bakugo was sobbing at how his old friend had shown forgiveness. He didn't deserve it. He didn't deserve the cinnamon roll to be nice to him again. He betrayed him, he had let him go.
"I'm sorry Izuku." Todoroki said. "I caused you to break down, I'll never use my fire again."
"Don't say that Todoroki." Izuku said. "I want you to use it without thinking of your father. I don't know the story of your family, but you seem to hate him. I just want to save you from your own hate."
Izuku sat up, his throat felt dry. "From now on, we'll face our fears together. Our fear of fire."
Izuku rolled up the sleeve of his uniform, revealing the scar that wrapped around his upper arm, then left it there. "Until you are comfortable with your scar, your history, I will show my scar, and my history to everyone. Then we can be the same, and you won't be alone."
It was Todoroki's turn to cry, as tears rolled down his cheek, a smile came to his lips. "Thank you Izuku."
Both left the room and returned to class. Tenya stayed behind.
"I was worried about you Izuku. I still am. I'll stay with you until you're cleared to go back to class."
The door to the nurses office opened as Recovery girl walked in with a clipboard.
"He can go." She said. "I'm signing you up for some therapy sessions with Hound Dog though. You had a full scale panic attack back there. Seems like symptoms of PTSD. You'll need to talk about everything. EVERYTHING." She emphasized, then left Izuku and Tenya.
"Hey Tenya." Izuku said, hopping out of the hospital bed.
"What is it?" Tenya said, before Izuku pinned him to the wall, kissing him.
Izuku felt… Perfect. He could feel Tenya lock up, and then relax. He could taste Tenya's lips. Everything around him seemed to grow quiet and distant. The kiss only lasted seconds, but it felt like hours had passed.
"Wha-what was th-that for?" Tenya said, as Izuku stopped. His glasses started fogging up as his cheeks turned red.
"You were the one who got to my side first." Izuku said, before bringing him out into the hallway where they began walking back to class. "You're my hero."
~OIO~
The class was silent as Izuku walked through the door. Eyes locking onto his bare arm and the scar that dominated it. Izuku was a little uncomfortable, but all that melted away when Todoroki looked up and smiled at him. Of course, Tenya and Izuku were the only ones that saw it, and they both smiled back.
"Hey guys." Izuku said. "What's happening?"
Three girls were instantly upon him.
"Are you okay?" The alien looking girl from earlier asked.
"What's with the scar, I thought Todoroki didn't hit you." The girl who Izuku recognized as the one with basically no costume said.
"Izuku, Why did you faint?" That was Uraraka. He'd tell her later, he didn't think that he had suppressed the memories to the point where they lashed out as flashbacks.
As the three girls weighed him down with questions, he saw a few other students berating Todoroki.
"Hey guys, it's not his fault." Izuku said. "Don't yell at Todoroki please."
"He burned you!" The alien looking girl shouted, as all of the students berating Todoroki looked at him.
"No," Izuku said. "He didn't burn me. He didn't even hit me. This scar is from a while ago. I normally hide it. But Todoroki can't hide his scar. Why should I be able to hide mine?"
"That's so manly." A redhead whispered.
Everyone but Tenya, Bakugo, and Todoroki was stunned at what Izuku said to them about the scar. They all slowly made their way back to their seats with blank expressions.
"Thank's Izuku." Todoroki smiled.
The rest of the day went on Boringly. Nothing but regular highschool classes. Well, there was a point where Todoroki changed seats so he was next to Tenya, Uraraka, and Izuku. But that was the only thing that should be mentioned.
As the school day came to an end, Izuku and Tenya made their way to principal Nezu's office. Before they had the chance to knock, the door swung open.
"Hello you two." The principal said. "What can I do for you today?"
"Um, yes." Izuku said. "I was wondering if there could be a space for me to transform into my female side on campus? I just, have been Izuku for a while, and it seems unfair."
Nezu chuckled, "This kid is too pure."
"Um, also, is there a way to make it look like Ikku has a reason to be at the school?"
"Oh, that won't be a problem." Nezu said with a gleam in his eye. "You can just say that you were showing your girlfriend around campus."
Both teens turned red. "Is it that obvious?"
"To others no, to me yes." Nezu said. "As for a place to change, ask to use recovery girls room. It can only hold a single patient. Also, take these." Nezu handed Izuku a bag. "It's a guest badge and extra uniform. To make it look like you might think of transferring."
"Thank you sir." Both teens bowed and left the room.
"What a couple." Nezu chuckled.
~OIO~
After changing, Tenya and Ikku walked around the campus. They messaged Uraraka who was in the support office talking to Power Loader about some gadget she had thought up. So they met up there.
They chatted a little as they walked. And as they left the building, they had the sneaking suspicion that they were being watched.
~OIO~
The Next Day: UA High
"Dude, did you see her yet?"
"Who?"
"The smoking hot chick of my dreams!"
"Isn't that any girl for you?"
Minoru Mineta and Denki Kaminari were busy talking about a girl.
"Shut up!" Mineta said. "Anyway, I saw her leaving the school yesterday, she was with Uraraka and-"
Mineta went silent.
"What is it Mineta?" Kaminari asked.
"We need to ask Iida what he knows." Mineta said.
"What do you need to ask me?" Iida said, as he walked into the classroom.
"Who was that you were with yesterday? The hot babe at the door?" Mineta asked, foaming at the mouth as he imagined the girl of his dreams.
"Oh, her? You'll meet her soon enough."
Mineta and kaminari, as well as the rest of the class wondered what Iida meant.
They all went to their seats and sat down thinking.
"Wait, where's Midoriya?" Todoroki asked, before Aizawa walked into the classroom.
"Midoriya is going to be gone for the day." Aizawa said, with a dull tone.
"WHAT?!" The class shouted, except Tenya and Uraraka, who both smiled.
"We're trying something new this year, we're exchanging a single student from UA with one from Shiketsu High." The students heard the thump of footsteps through the hallway. "We hope that this will help to strengthen relations with our two schools. That being said, I hope you act with the utmost respect." The door swung open, and a girl with silver hair walked in.
"Class, This is Ikku Toshi. She's from Shiketsu High, and she'll be the exchange student attending UA for a day."
"That's Her!" Mineta whispered to Kaminari.
"Hi everybody!" Ikku yelled with a smile. "I'm Ikku Toshi! I'll be with you guys during classes today! I don't think I know all of you, Except Tenya and Uraraka. Can you all introduce yourselves sometime today?"
Mineta jumped up as blood leaked from his nose. "Hi, I'm Minoru Mineta, you're super hot! Can I get your number so maybe sometime we can fu-"
Mineta was silenced as Tenya appeared in front of him with a scowl.
"Say anything out of order to her, and I'll be sure that you'll never be able to procreate."
The entire class was silent as Tenya returned to his seat.
"Thank's Tenya!" Ikku giggled as she hopped up and down in place.
Four boys fainted with bloody noses. "Her… Chest…" One said, before fainting as well.
The girls were all growling. Ikku's Chest was huge. No wonder all the boys were down for the count. She rivaled Yaoyorozu!
"Watch where you point those things!" Uraraka whispered.
"Oops! Sorry about that. My head can be in the clouds sometimes." She giggled.
"So what's your quirk?" Mina Ashido asked as she gritted her teeth. "She even got our manly man with those! Kirishima didn't stand a chance!"
"My quirk is called Aphrodite!" Ikku said. "As you can see, my looks are a little above the standard beautiful girl. I can also give off a mist that causes anyone to be attracted to me.
Also, I have super strength, like a GOD!"
The class murmured at this, except the ones who had been knocked out. And the Day went on, until they eventually came to lunch.
"So, what do you think about the shiketsu girl?" Mina asked Yaoyorozu.
"Well, I never thought I'd meet a girl with a chest so large!" Yaoyorozu laughed.
"Like you can talk." Tsuyu Asui Croaked.
They all chatted before noticing the absence of a few people from the lunch room.
"Where are Iida and the shiketsu girl?" Mina asked.
"There's no way." A floating uniform said. This was Toru Hagakure.
"Do you think they're-"
"Iida is too proper, he would never do that." Yaoyorozu said. "Besides, they couldn't possibly be together."
She was proven wrong when Iida walked into the lunch room carrying Ikku Bridal style.
"Thanks Tenya-kun." Ikku said, hopping out of his arms before kissing him passionately.
The table of girls was shocked as Teny shed his robotic movements and stuck up attitude. They stared as the two sat down at a table with Uraraka and Todoroki. They watched with wide eyes as all of them chatted and laughed, before Ikku shifted from her seat, and into Tenya's lap. Uraraka went red and shifted towards Todoroki, who began blushing as Uraraka took his hand.
"Ochako and Todoroki?" Mina whispered in shock.
"N-no." everyone turned to see Yaoyorozu with tears running down her cheeks. "Todoroki was supposed to be mine. Mine.
"Hey, Cheer up Yaoyorozu. There's always Midoriya." Hagakure said.
"I-I-I guess." Momo sniffled.
~OIO~
Later that day: Hero Training With All Might.
All Might stood waiting at ground delta. The cape of his silver age suit flowing behind him.
He watched as the students filed onto the training site in their hero costumes.
He spotted his step daughter among them and smiled. His blue eyes suddenly widened as he saw her holding the hand of Tenya Iida, the brother of Ingenium.
"I'll Need to have a talk with both of them later." He thought.
"Hello once again students!" All Might Said. "Today we'll be doing some hostage rescue training!"
"Hostage rescue?" The class questioned.
"That's right! There will be situations where a villain will take civilians and even heroes hostage. Today we'll be doing training with your mathematics teacher, ECTOPLASM!"
The class clapped to welcome their teacher.
"Ectoplasm will be using his quirk in the roads of this training site to create several villains. We will have hostage dummies that you will need to rescue. The grade earned depends on the teamwork between you and your partner hero(Chosen at random of course.) The state of the hostage dummy, and how long it takes for you to resolve the situation. Any questions?" All Might said as he looked up from the tiny booklet in his hand.
"Really? He's reading from a booklet?" everyone sweatdropped.
"Good! Now we'll sort you into pairs!"
Ochako and Todoroki
Yaoyorozu and Ashido
Mineta and Tokoyami
Hagakure and Asui
Ojiro and Sero
Jiro and Shoji
Kirishima and Bakugo
Kaminari and Koda
Sato and Aoyama
Toshi and Iida
Shoot, how did they get together?
"Okay everybody!" Ikku said as she jumped up and down excitedly. "Let's do our best!"
"YEAH!"
~OIO~
Hm, well shit. I've been gone longer than I wanted.
Sorry everybody who was looking forward to a chapter.
I hope you all like the thought of Todoroki and Uraraka. At least for now. I might have them be their own thing instead of the rest of 1-A. Or maybe they'll just be closer to each other than others in the harem.
Anyways, you can tell what girls and guys and enby fries I'm setting up.
I don't have much to say right now, other than thanks for sticking with me.
Until the next chapter everybody,
Plus Ultra!
