Chapter 41: this quirk?

the day started somewhat normal with everyone eating breakfast at the common areas of dorms but all of Class 1-A was only talking about one thing and it was the fates of both Bakugo and Izumi. no one had seen either of them since the destruction of training field beta last night, some were afraid that because of the destruction Aizawa finally expelled both Izumi and Bakugo. but then Aizawa entered the room and with him both Bakugo and Izumi, everyone went silent as they saw them both.

"ahem, now as you all know Bakugo and Midoriya got into a fight last night and as such they will both be put under house arrest, neither of them will be aloud to go to class and none of you will be aloud to tell them anything we learn in class. Bakugo started the fight so he will be punished for four days, and Midoriya only continued the fight so she will be under house arrest for three days. in the mean time-" Aizawa couldn't help but be silenced when all of Class 1-A was so shocked that they all lost thier colors.

"B- B- Bakugo is going to be alone with Izumi?"

"FOR THREE DAYS?!"

"Aizawa that's way too cruel! can't you think of a more humane punishment?"

"shut up all of you! ahem, now listen they will have to act as cleaners during this time and will be cleaning all of the Class 1-A dorms except for your individual rooms, besides that they will be living here the same as everyone else but if you happened to notice something particularly dirty then feel free to pin in on either of them. however, this is not an excuse to become slobs so don't you dare start acting like pigs just to further punish them, got it?" everyone in Class 1-A the said they understood but most were still not on board with the idea of Izumi and Bakugo being alone together during class periods with no one to watch over Bakugo to make sure he doesn't get violent again.

"alright as you all know class is about to start so get done with breakfast already and get to class." Aizawa then left the dorms and everyone then turned to Bakugo and Izumi, Izumi seemed to be filled with guilt while Bakugo just looked at everyone with a bored expression.

"so uh... what happened last night?"

"... I punched Deku in the stomach, and then she punched me back." suddenly Uraraka, Todoroki, Yaoyorozu, and even Kirishima got filled with anger toward Bakugo while he continued to show his bored expression but then Izumi quickly jumped into the conversation.

"but uh even thought it was a violent fight we started talking after it was over and really did some bonding, so now not only are we proper friends this time but we are also heroic rivals! so yeah, no need for anyone to attack anyone else ok... please?"

"wait rivals?! how is that better?"

"well truth be told even thought I asked Bakugo to be my friend we... weren't exactly friends. I was still greatly scared of him."

"... which you had every right to be."

"and I still saw her as the girl I made that promise with as a kid."

"yeah, it wasn't necessarily bad, but it wasn't good either, especially since we both had so much pent up rage and no well processed feeling that we kinda just slowly fell apart."

"and then we both blew up last night and started fighting until we got tired and just talked. so yeah we understand each other better now, and also now the only reason I want to stay in this shitty school is to show how I'm better than Deku so yeah now were rivals too but its not like I'm gonna kill her or anything so stop with the murderous eyes round face." everyone even Izumi looked at Uraraka and sure enough she was glaring at Bakugo but then she just took a deep breath to calm herself and then turned her head to show her disappointment at Bakugo. but then to everyone's surprise Iida then stood up and then walked up to both Izumi and Bakugo silently, but then shockingly he chopped Izumi on the head to show his disappointment at her. Iida didn't actually hit her hard enough to hurt her but Izumi still acted hurt because she was so shocked that it was Iida of all people.

"wha-! Iida why?!"

"why?! because what you did last night was selfish! barbaric! and just downright stupid! you deserve a harsher punishment than what Mr. Aizawa is giving you but I will abide by his wishes. Irregardless, I expected this kind of behavior from Bakugo but from you? down right unacceptable, you have brought shame to our vows of becoming a better hero!" Izumi was speechless and even looked at Kirishima, then Yaoyorozu, Ashido, and Todoroki and none of them were actually mad at Izumi but at the same time none of them could deny that what she did was shameful to the vow of Becoming a better hero. Izumi then started tearing up and then suddenly collapsed to her knees and started crying her signature waterfall tears. Iida then started suddenly feeling guilty while Bakugo just watched in disappointment.

"well nice going elite, you made her cry."

"ah! well don't just stand there! do something!" Bakugo then got on his knees and then hit Izumi on the back of the head and then she passed out.

"there, that's an old trick I used to use on her back in Middle school when she was still Izuku, I mainly during math classes to get him to shut up... what? you said to do something."


Iida actually wanted to hit Bakugo for the first time but knew that they were wasting a lot of time so he decided to let it go and finish his breakfast, after some time everyone finally finished breakfast and left for classes. by the time Izumi got up Bakugo had aleady put all of the dishes at the sink and while Izumi and Bakugo were now washing all the plates. it wasn't exactly something either of them found difficult to do or time consuming so they both just remained silent. however Izumi started a weird habit of scratching her scar and as time went on she started scratching more and more aggressively which was getting on Bakugo's nerves.

"hey idiot what are you doing? don't scratch your scar so hard!"

"I can't help it, argh, its so itchy for some reason."

"well take it easy, will you? if you scratch it that hard its going to be-" Izumi then peeled her scar off like it was dead skin reviling perfectly healthy skin underneath as if her scar was nothing more than an overgrown scab.

"... torn... off..."

"ah... aah... aaaah... AAAAAHHH!" Izumi couldn't comprehend what was happening and just went into full panic mode while screaming like a psycho.

"Izumi calm down for crying out loud! panicking isn't going to help!"

"Kacchan punch me!"

"WHAT?!"

"I need my scar back! now punch me damn it!" Bakugo was now infuriated and just punched Izumi in the face hard, she was slightly shocked but the shock died quickly since she actually asked for it. so then she took out her mirror and looked at her face and saw that she now had a black eye, at first she just pouted because it wasn't enough but then she lost all her colors when the black eye healed in an instant.

"ok... does this have something to do with One for All or All for One or anything like that?"

"n- no I don't know how this is even possible! One for All is supposed to give me unimaginable power and strength, not regenerative powers."

"... what about healing powers?" Izumi then looked at Bakugo in confusion but then he started taking off all his bandages and all of his scratches and burn marks were completely gone and all of his skin was fresh and healthy as if it had never been damaged in the first place.

"wha... what? how?"

"you tell me, I started healing the moment you kissed my cheek last night." Izumi's head started spinning she felt as thought she was going crazy, she had no idea how this was possible, she apparently got a quirk that not only heals herself both those she comes into contact with.

"I- I really don't understand! this shouldn't be possible!"

"maybe All for One gave it to you by accident or something? you did tell me the guy can take and give quirks at will right?"

"n- no that can't be right, I mean why would his quirk works like One for All the user must do so willingly, and even if that was the case why would he give me a healing quirk?"

"ok, ok, calm down idiot. but are you sure though I mean, when did you start healing abnormally?" Izumi then had a realization and quickly went to her room and got the pills that All Might gave to her. she actually stopped taking them a few days ago because she wanted to see if doing so would stop the strange healing, which it obviously didn't.

"it all started when I started taking these pills." Izumi then handed Bakugo the pill bottle that All Might gave her, Bakugo then examined the bottle and then took a pill out and to Izumi's shock Bakugo licked it. Bakugo then looked at Izumi in disappointment.

"w- what?" Bakugo then slapped Izumi on the head out of anger.

"these are obviously sugar pills you idiot! how the hell could these possibly give you healing powers?!" Izumi was in total shock and even lost all her colors again but then Bakugo slapped her on the head again which made her quickly switch from confused to angry.

"stop hitting me on the head jerk!"

"stop getting shocked all the time dumbass!"

"easy for you to say! your not the one being stockpiled with a bunch of random quirks!" Bakugo then glared deeply and angrily at Izumi.

"yeah... I'm not, because I'm not All Might's favorite now am I?" Izumi then quickly apologized to Bakugo out of fear.

"... *sigh* are you absolutely sure there was no way you could have gotten this quirk?" Izumi couldn't think of anything, there was no logical way she could have gotten a new quirk out of the blue.

"well either way, All Might must have something to do with it, and probably used these sugar pills to keep you from finding out the truth." Izumi then felt chills up her spine when she heard Bakugo's words she even stumbled a little and almost fell due to a bit of depression and realization hitting right through her.

"so... All Might has been keeping secrets from me?"

"... well duh."

"w- what? what do you mean duh?"

"what do you think I mean? Izumi, we're like 15 years old. do you honestly think he would trust you with ALL the information?" Izumi felt a little upset and even betrayed to hear this but as she thought about it more it only made sense so she started to accept it.

"well ok then."

"wait that's it? just ok? your not gonna get pissed?"

"well I am very upset but I can just ask him to about it. he won't be able to lie if I ask him directly." Izumi then smiled brightly while Bakugo just looked at her in disappointment, why was I ever in love with this dumb bitch? he thought obviously if she asks All Might is just going to lie about it.

"*sigh* anyways you have two... three quirks now, so what are you going to do?"

"hm... well its a healing quirk so I think I'm going to use it to increase my control over One for All, I can start by regain my previous control over it."

"yeah that makes sense but hey since I know about the secret let me get some healing too, you already proved that you can heal other people last night so I want an edge as well. besides your the one who wanted to be friends so you gotta help me irregardless." Bakugo then smiled proudly while Izumi smiled too but was also emitting an aura of gloom out of disappointment towards Bakugo. that's obviously not how friendship works dumb ass. she then sighed and then smiled normally at Bakugo again.

"hm, fine, I owe you a lot regardless so I'll go ahead and keep healing you when you need it, but I do plan on helping others too you know. I'm obviously not going to spill the fact that I just miraculously got an overpowered healing quirk out of no where but as a hero I want to help those while I can. and speaking of help thanks for at least trying to help me figure out all this crazy chaos, you know Kacchan your actually really smart." Bakugo then looked back at Izumi and started emitting an aura of burning rage.

"was there any doubt about me being smart?"

"ah! um no-! no of course not!"

"... whatever, now come on, we got to start cleaning remember also you might want to put makeup since I'm pretty sure everyone will freak out when they see you don't have your scar anymore." Izumi then lost all her colors for she had just realized that what Bakugo had said.


When everyone from Class 1-A entered the room they were speechless to see that the entirety of the class 1-A dorms were spotless, and Izumi and Bakugo were standing in the living room area with cleaner attire. Izumi managed to use makeup to put a fake scar on her face but she wasn't good at it so Bakugo had to help and it seems that no one noticed instead they were all just admiring how clean everything was.

"wow, you guys got everything clean."

"... I don't belive it, there's not even a speck of dust anywhere."

"how the heck did you guys clean it all so well?"

"grrr, the old hag made me clean everyday ever since I started cursing, thought it would teach me to clean my mouth or something, dumb bitch."

"uh I mainly just got used to it when helping my mom clean since I had nothing better to do, also in middle school I was always picked to clean after the class." Uraraka and Yaoyorozu were quick to jump to Izumi's side and start praising her on her cleaning skills, while Bakugo just stood there with a board expression with absolutely no one praising him.

"hey man you alright? you've been quiet ever since the fight." Bakugo then noticed that Kirishima was next to him, normally Bakugo would be annoyed at him but then he remembered all the times he hung out with his 'friends' back in middle school. they would only ever ask about what his favorite things were or his opinion on something but never how he was doing. obviously Bakugo was never the one to focus on anything emotionally with the only exception being Izumi but now that he's more carefree he decided to be more open minded and expressive.

"yeah I'm fine, don't worry about me shitty hair."

"hey come on man, can't you at least call me Kirishima?"

"I'll call you Kirishima when you become a proper badass until then just get over it, shitty hair." Kirishima seemed only a little annoyed at first but then he just smiled brightly at Bakugo to which Bakugo smiled too but also rolled his eyes away. just then everyone went silent when Aizawa entered the room, he then touched the windows and was shocked to see not a spec of dust on them. he then turned to Izumi and Bakugo, Izumi wearing a bright smile and Bakugo a genuine smile. this infuriated Aizawa as he felt that he was not punishing them enough but then an idea popped in his head that almost made him smile.

"it's good you two can clean so well, I guess this was a suitable punishment after all. anyways everyone don't forget what you heard today about the workshops."

"oh yeah the workshops!"

"huh, I wonder how its all gonna go."

"well if its going to make us improve on our heroic studies then I'm all for it."

"wait what are you guys talking about?" everyone then went silent when Izumi asked such a question.

"uh, sorry Izumi since your under house arrest we're not really aloud to tell you anything." Izumi was shocked to hear this and looked around and sure enough everyone else had the same reaction, she then turned to Aizawa to which he was had a bored expression. but then when he started walking away he turned back to Izumi and then smirked a little, Izumi then lost her colors out of this but then quickly got them back as she reverted to her dark form in pure rage.

"I can't belive I missed so much in only a day!" Izumi then turned back to her normal form and then looked to Iida in confusion.

"that's what you were thinking weren't you traitor!" uh... no not really Izumi thought while having a disappointed expression toward Iida.

"ah, wait what? hey! don't call me that! I'm sorry I broke the vow by doing something stupid but come on!"

"hm... I suppose to continue to be angry any further would just be childish, but still! just remember that the fact that you have information kept from you is a good extension of your punishment. if your going to act criminally and want redemption, then do the time and wait until your released!" Iida then marched away, leaving Izumi feeling a little disappointed in herself.

"hey! whose going to get rid of all this trash." just then Kaminari then pointed out a pile of trash bags.

"what the hell?!"

"that wasn't there earlier."

"oh Aizawa said you guys were in charge of taking the trash out now, we gathered all the trash from our rooms and bundled them up."

"oh, I'll take them then."

"no, no Izumi that's not right."

"eh?"

"if a young and beautiful girl like you is going to do chores... you need to wear a maid outfit!" Mineta then pulled a maid outfit out of seemingly nowhere, and then presented it to Izumi while smiling and drooling like a psycho. Izumi then looked at Mineta in disappointment and then looked to Kaminari and he quickly shook his head to show that he had nothing to do with this. Izumi then grabbed one of Mienta's sticky balls from his head, pulled his mouth open wide and then stuffed it in his mouth. Izumi then picked up all the trash and walked out of the dorm with steam coming off of her head due to anger, while Mineta was trying to get the sticky ball out of his mouth with Kirishima trying to help him, and Kaminari and Bakugo laughing at him.

while taking the trash out Izumi was annoyed that only one day had passed and she had already missed something very vital about class and her future hero training. work study? well commonly work study is when you do a job while still in school but its not an internship its a an actual job you get payed for, you just don't work as long or get payed as much as the actual employees. so if I take that into account, then this hero work study should be the same as our hero internships, but then what is different? it can't honestly be that we get payed, it has to be something more than that, maybe something to due with getting our provisional license? but in that case does that mean Kacchan and Shoto can't attend? ugh, I don't have any information. I can't even ask anyone, not even that face on the wall... wait what? Izumi then turned to the wall to she that she was indeed correct about there being a face on the wall.

"hey! trash am I right?"

"um... what?"

"hey why are you talking all that trash out anyways? how come none of your classmates at the dorms helping you?"

"oh well that's because I screwed something up and am now getting punished for it."

"oh I see so now your everyone's nanny now? that kinda sucks."

"well I had to clean after everyone back in middle school so its not something I can't handle... hey are you a student here?"

"yes I am actually a senior of U.A., I gotta say your actually surprisingly calm, you realize a face attacked to a wall is talking to you right now right?"

"I figure that's probably your quirk or something, I tend to document every quirk I come across so nothing like this really surprises me too much."

"I see your more interesting than I thought, a lot of people are talking about you so I just wanted to see what the fuss was about but it seems I caught you at a busy time, but don't worry we'll meet again soon enough, see ya!" and just like that the face disappeared, Izumi was disappointed that she couldn't ask him the full extent of his quirk but she did look on the bright side like the fact that he said they would meet again soon. thought at that point it dawned on her that he could have been another villain infiltrating the school so she was at least relived that she didn't spill any vital information.


the next three days passed by quite quickly and at the beginning of the third day everyone was in their seats patiently waiting for Aizawa to enter the room, however the room was not quite for Uraraka was humming joyfully in her seat.

"hey Uraraka, you seem happy today."

"that's because today Deku gets to come back to class!"

"oh yeah its gonna suck that she won't be cleaning anymore."

"yeah the dorms have never been cleaner when she and Bakugo started cleaning."

"if only she would do it while wearing a maid outfit." Everyone turned to Uraraka thinking that she was gonna hit Mineta but she didn't instead she just sat there and continued to smile joyfully.

"huh, you know Uraraka, you've had a lot more self control as of late."

"yeah I'll admit I have been obsessive of Izumi's welfare for the longest time but now I'm trying to be more focused on my own goals while still supporting Izumi, BUT making sure to give her personal space as well."

"that's actually pretty cool of you Uraraka, I'm sure Izumi will be impressed." just then the door opened and a boy with black death like hair and crimson red eyes while emitting an aura of burning determination entered the room. everyone couldn't help but loose their colors out of horror at the sight of a possible psycho invading their classroom.

"B- Bakugo?!"

"what?! t- that can't be Bakugo! Bakugo has blonde hair, he's got black hair!" just then the boy slammed his fist on the wall which scared everyone into silence.

"Listen up you damn losers! I gotta set something straight so you better open you damn ears!" yup, that's Bakugo they all thought in unison, despite the fact that they could clearly see the scar on the boy's face.

"I just wanted to say how sorry I am for being such a stupid piece of shit! I was reckless and stupid for starting that fight and because of it I lost out on class time! I am a disgrace to class 1-A so I'm so fucking sorry! you hear me you jerks!" everyone then nodded at the screaming psycho. is he apologizing or insulting us?! they all thought in unison.

"Iida! I want to apologize to you the most! your were the biggest jerk to me, but that's ok because I was the one who screwed up! I hope you can forgive a piece of shit like me, you bastard!"

"uh... yes... of course..."

"Good! from now on! no more fucking around and no more screwing up! I hereby vow to be a more model student that you assholes can rely on!" The screaming psycho then raised his fists in the air in triumph while everyone was speechless out of both confusion and fear. just then a few people reluncantly clapped for the psycho but not out of praise, out of fear that he would start yelling again. just then the psycho lowered his arms and then had a deep breath and then reverted back to Izumi.

"*in female voice* sorry everyone, I was just a little mad at myself for missing so much in class so I wanted to express my devotion to catching up with you all, guess I got carried away. haha." Izumi had her eyes closed as she laughed a little to lighten the mood but when she opened her eyes her face went to gloom and shock when she saw how everyone had lost their colors and Uraraka even passed out.

"... oops."

"oops? OOPS?! Izumi what the hell?! we thought you were Bakugo's weird cousin or something!"

"you were even cursing like him! this was why we were against the idea of you being stuck with Bakugo for three days!"

"also why are you wearing a boys uniform?" Izumi then looked down at her attire, and sure enough she was wearing a boys uniform she even looked down into her shirt and was wearing her white breast straps.

"huh, I guess I put it on unconsciously."

"oh dear, Aizawa is going to be really mad when he sees you like this." just then everyone heard Aizawa's foot steps and quickly straightened themselves while Izumi rushed to her seat, right after leaving her apology letter on the podium. Aizawa then entered the room and looked at Izumi's apology letter for a few seconds before ripping it up to Izumi's shock.

"your apology was fine Izumi I just don't have a reason to keep it so I'm just going to throw it in the trash, don't tell Bakugo I want him to stress over it if possible... Izumi are you aware your wearing a boys uniform."

"yes."

"your not supposed to be wearing a boys uniform."

"... yes."

"... ugh, it's too early for this, never mind! just change to the proper attire in the next break, anyways listen up all of you! now that Midoriya is back were going to go into a little more detail about the differences between work study and internships." Izumi should have been grateful to hear this and she was but she was also annoyed as well, so nobody else knew anything about the work study, damn you Aizawa you tricked me! again!

"for this you'll want to hear from the perspective of professionals who have experienced the differences first hand. you three can come in now." just then the door opened again and three senior students of U.A. entered the classroom and Izumi immediately recognized the first guy as the face in the wall the talked to three days ago. Izumi then sighed in relief knowing that he wasn't a villain, but then she was getting excited knowing that not only was she going to get the chance to know the full extent of his quirk but his experience in work study. but then she noticed that Aizawa was looking at the three of them in dread as if he absolutely despised being in their presence which actually sent chills up Izumi's spine. uh, I sure its fine, Izumi thought I mean Aizawa typically hates students that are cheerful and loud so maybe that just means these three are experience and amazing students and basically pro heroes already... right?
