Chapter Six: And You Are?

A day after awakening from his dream, Mineta and his classmates were revisiting Qing Qing City, China. They had many worries, especially the three who originally got caught up with the villain-

"WHERE'S THAT PURPLE HEADED BASTARD!" An explosion sounded to the right of the group and they all saw a man emerging from a broken down wall. Though many of them didn't recognize whoever this was, Mineta, Izuku, Todoroki, and Aizawa all knew what was going on.

"That man is a villain with a dangerous quirk. Don't hit him with any heavy hitting object, or you'll end up like those two ended up back then." He warned them, pointing to Mineta and Midoriya.

"So that's the bastard that gave IcyHot and Deku a run for their money, huh?" Bakugou remarked rhetorically, stepping ahead of everyone else. "I'm excited!"

"Bakugou wait, we need to make a plan-

"I have a plan!" he called out before Tenya could continue, rushing towards the villain with his explosions.

While all the students of class 1-A participated in combating the situation, Mineta just stood in worried, fearful shock. "B-b-b-but wait, wasn't he part of my d-dream? How does he know who I am!"

"I pulled a Freddy Krueger, bitch!" The lean man was suddenly in front of Mineta and punched his gut. Instead of being knocked back, Mineta felt a pain in his skin, a large, stinging pain. Before he could have time to react, the man pulled out his machete and stabbed Mineta through the heart, killing him.

"Mineta!" Izuku cried out as he saw his classmate's dead body over a pool of blood. He leapt towards the villain and once he was within range, he spun to build up momentum. "Vermont...SMASH!"

Using this momentum, Izuku was able to axe kick the villain, before upper-cutting him with such force that he shot to the ceiling of the museum, burning to death from the electric currents of the lights.

After the incident, a funeral was held for Mineta. To the surprise of many, only five people from class 1-A were paying their respects. The rest of them, the girls, looked wholly confused. "Uhm, Deku, who's Mineta again?"

"He's our classmate who died in battle, please don't be disrespectful, Uraraka," Izuku replied solemnly.

"Uhm...Ochako, what's a Mineta? They keep talking about a "Mineta"," Mina asked. "Is it some sort of spell or food?"

"Beats me…"

"Uhm, what's a Mineta?"

"Who's Mineta?"

"Why Mineta?"

"Where Mineta?"

"How Mineta?"

"NOOOOO!" Mineta exclaimed as he jolted up from...the first floor couch? He looked to his surroundings and indeed, just like before, Uraraka was to his left and Deku was to his right. Although the latter looked very pissed, even though his eyes were closed.

"I swear Bakugou, if I hear one more "sHUt uP dEKu" I'm going to beat your ass so hard, you'll be grateful Todoroki spared your ass in the sports festival-*SNOOOORE*

"THE FUCK YOU SAY TO ME, DEKU!" Katsuki called out from the second floor, quickly rushing down and grabbing the sleeping teen by the collar.

"YOU HEARD ME, BITCH. After I finish clapping your ass, I'm gonna clap- *SNOOOORE*

Just before exploding, Mineta cut the half-awake, half-dream argument with a bit of clarification. "Deku is sleeping, Bakugou. I think he's having a dream where he is more confident and is standing up to you, I guess."

"I see…" Katsuki replied. He nodded in acceptance before rearing his hand, creating some experimental explosions in his palm, and then slapping Izuku in the face. This had indeed worked as the green-haired teen stumbled as he awoke. He examined the scene before figuring out Bakugou in his hazy vision. He went so pale, Mineta thought he'd be more blinding than light itself.

"Woah, Kacchan, lovely day, right?"

"Yes, beautiful day, Deku,"

"You heard me didn't you-

"OF COURSE I FUCKING DID. DIE!"

"WOAH, before you kill me, answer me this. Did you or did you not hear what I said after threatening to beat you up,"

Katsuki was silent for a moment, confused for a split second. But then he read the obvious mood and decided to have some fun. "Oh, that little tid-bit about Round Face? Yeah, me and Grape Head over here both heard it, ain't that right, little guy?"

Mineta knew that regardless of whether he spoke, his classmate would die from embarrassment, so he decided "well shit" and played along. "Yeah, I heard it. Surprised that someone as pure on the outside as Midoriya had dreams of getting frisky, heh."

And then he started crying, like, sobbing. "Oh shit."

"PLEASE KACCHAN DON'T TELL ANYONE PLESAS PLEASE PEPEAPWPOFPQJFWJAOHHPOP!" he sobbed vigorously as he begged his childhood friend to not make the new information public.

"Relax, you started snoring right before you were about to say it, we were just messing with you." Mineta affirmed out of the blue. Silence filled the room. Slowly, Izuku's head turned to him, his tears magically dried off. To replace this, red lines lined his skin and clothes in a weird pattern, disappearing into green lightning.

"You mad, Deku? Then fight me!" Katsuki challenged as he went into his battle stance. To his surprise, Deku didn't react in any way or form. He was solely focused on Mineta and walked slowly to his classmate. "Welp, good riddance, Grape Head."

Izuku grabbed Mineta by the collar of his shirt and brought him to eye level. "Do that again...If you do that ONE MORE TIME I WILL…" He lowered him down and sat back on the couch and facepalmed. "No Izuku, you can't forget where you came from. Don't forget how powerless you used to be. Humble yourself…"

"Huh? Deku? Wow...I *snore* I don't know what to say. I li-*SNOOOORE*

"Oh shit" Mineta muttered.

"Oh shit!" Bakugou cheered

"OH SHIT" Izuku cried out.

All three class 1-A students looked to their brunette classmate, noticing that she was sleeping. While Izuku sighed, Bakugou snickered and went up to her. "Hey, Round Face."

After shifting a bit in her position, she once again spoke with a hazy tone. "Huh? Bakugou, where did Deku go?"

"Deku wants to confess but he's too shy, so he wants to know what you think of him," Katsuki lied as he stole a smirk at Izuku. "Romantically."

"Kacchan why…" he groaned. Mineta also shuddered in second hand embarrassment.

A snot bubble that was growing in the meantime popped. "Well, I mean if he likes me I'm *snoore* I don't mind…"

As soon as she said this, she jolted up and awoke. "OH DEAR LITERALLY-ANYTHING PLEASE TELL ME NOBODY HEARD THAT!"

Conveniently enough, the three other presences were made known. She started crying. "PLEASE TELL ME NOBODY HEARD THATGJIWJPPOWJPJGOGWPJWQGPG"

"If it helps, Midoriya-

"SHUT UP MINETA"

Suddenly, Mina came down, sniffing as if she were about to find a smell that intrigued her. "I smell...I smell...DRAAAMA!"

"And you smelled right, cause me and grape head over here just finished cooking a hearty pot of Deku-And-Round-Face-Confessing-To-Eachother-In-Their-Dreams,"

Mineta awoke again for like what, the fifth time? How many times would he wake up on the couch, hopefully this wasn't a loop. As he looked to his surroundings, he noticed that Izuku and Uraraka weren't sleeping, they were standing, and looking at him with shocked expressions.

"Hmm, so I had a dream where we fight that museum villain again, but instead of waking up after I die, I get to witness my own funeral and then have another dream in which Midoriya and Ochako confess to each other while they are dreaming, and now I've woken up from said dream...interesting."
