A/N: This is a rewritten version of Naruto: Boku No Hero Academia. This version will have a lot more development between the characters and it will dive more into Naruto's psyche.

It was a well-known fact in his neighbourhood that Naruto Uzumaki was a person filled with mystery.

There were only two facts that everyone in Izuku's class knew about the girl: she had an obsession with ramen and that she had a bottomless stomach. Other than these two things, there wasn't many things known about her. Even though, Naruto had been in his class since their first year in middle school, she never talked about her home. None of her friends knew about her life before school. They just knew she didn't like talking about her home. No one knew what her quirk was because the blonde avoided talking about it. Some people thought that Naruto didn't have a quirk.

There was a rumour that Naruto run away from home because she had problems with her family.

In all honesty, Izuku didn't really care about his classmate's past. Her past was her business and if Naruto didn't want to talk about it then it was fair. Was he hoping that maybe she was quirkless? Maybe. Did he wonder if she had a quirk? Yes. Yet, he also didn't really care. His blond-haired classmate was the only person who didn't laugh at his dream.

Nodding his head, Izuku tightened his grip on his bag, glanced at his watch and then looked at the crowd around him. He blinked at the sight of his mysterious classmate, who was leaning against her foot as she stared at the building in front of her. The green-haired boy followed her gaze and quivered at the sight of a huge villain, who was destroying the buildings around him with just a swing of his arm.

Pushing the people away from him, Izuku rushed towards the front of the crowd, where he now stood beside Naruto.

"Uzumaki-san, do you have any idea of which hero is going to take him down?" Izuku kept his eyes fixed on the villain and flipped open his notebook.

Smiling, the blond-haired girl pointed towards the roof of the train station, where there was a hero, who was dressed in a black unitard, staring at the huge man. Izuku leaned back and forth as he took note of the wooden shoes that the hero wore. His lips began to dry as he realized which hero was going to be dealing with the man with the giant quirk.

"I'm guessing that is Kamui Wood, right?" Naruto asked, tilting her head.

Izuku tore his eyes away from the notebook and stared at his curious classmate. "Yeah, it's Kamui Wood. Don't you know who he is? He has been on television and in the news a lot."

"Unlike everyone else in our class, I don't really pay a lot of attention to the superheroes," Naruto explained, shrugging her shoulder. He blinked his eyes and the blonde smiled. "Don't get me wrong, superheroes are cool and everything, but I just don't have the time to keep up with them. Unlike most people in our class, I have to worry about my rent, work and our school tests."

Izuku frowned and stared at the smiling girl, who returned her attention back to the battle in front of them. Besides Bakugou and him, Naruto had one of the best grades in their whole year. It was true that she could never answer the questions their teacher gave and fell asleep in class, Naruto always did well in their exams. For three years straight, Naruto had never gotten a score below ninety percent. This was something that irritated most of their classmates because if she could do well in their tests then she should be able to answer a simple question.

If she was dealing with things like a part-time job then it was no wonder that Naruto seemed to fall asleep in class.

His thoughts were interrupted when he caught sight of a giant blond-haired woman kicking the villain in the chin, sending the villian flying towards the empty streets. He felt his thoughts swirled around as he tried to process what happened. If he didn't want Naruto to think less of him, Izuku would have grabbed a notebook and note down all his thoughts about the new heroine. No, Naruto wouldn't think less of him if he wrote it down because unlike everyone in his class, Naruto never made any comment about his lack of quirk.

"I just started today!" The new heroine declared, smiling at them as the swarm of reporters rushed towards her, taking pictures of her heroic deed. "I'm called Mount Lady! Pleased to make your acquaintance."

"Her quirk is cool," Naruto grinned. "I wish my quirk could allow me to become a giant."

Naruto did have a quirk, Izuku thought as he flipped open his notebook. Narrowing his eyes, Izuku began to write down his observations of Mount Lady. His classmate was not the first person to think that Mount Lady's quirk was cool. The heroine's quirk was a very popular quirk, but it was also quite a risky quirk too. The quirk could prose a problem for the heroine as it could be costly for her to become a giant in a narrow space. However, it did depend on the fact if Mount Lady could choose the size at which she grow. God, there were just so many factors to consider.

"You do know that making notes isn't the only thing you need to do to make your dream come true, right?" Naruto asked, snapping him from his train of thought. "You should try to become stronger because you are going to be facing assholes, assholes that are probably going to be worse than Bakugou. Seriously, if that asshole becomes a hero than this world is insane."

"Kaa-chan will be a good superhero," Izuku protested.

The blond-haired girl snorted. "Sure he will and my hair is pink. If Bakugou wants to be a superhero then he needs to stop bullying you. When I think of a hero, I think of a person that protects the weak. That asshole doesn't even try to save the weak which makes him a pretty crappy hero. If anyone makes a good superhero then it is you, Izuku."

"Naruto…"

"I really don't understand why everyone thinks you have to have a quirk to become a superhero," Naruto grabbed her bag from the ground. "You know I found some old comics and in the past, there were superhero characters that had no superpowers. These heroes trained their ass off to develop abilities that any human can have if they pushed themselves to their limit. They used their head or use gadgets that allow them to become superheroes. I think quirkless people can do amazing things."

"Do you really believe that?"

"I don't lie about these kind of things," Naruto smiled and looked up at the clear blue sky. "As long as you believe in yourself than anything can happen. I might not know you as well as I would like but I do know that not even Bakugou can stop you from chasing after your dreams. You just need to back up what you are claiming."

"Naruto…"

"Shit, we are going to be late for class if we stay here any longer," Naruto yelled, looking at her watch. "I don't want to get into trouble with that asshole!"

Izuku grinned at his classmate's words and thought to himself that Naruto was right.

As long as he continued to believe in himself then he could become a hero.

Rubbing her shoulders, Naruto watched as her homeroom teacher strolled into their classroom, not caring about the fact that her classmates were using their quirks. Two years in this world and Naruto still was not used to the fact that people had quirks; there was not a single person in this room had enough chakra to do jutsu. Not only that but she still wasn't used to the fact that people show off their powers. No one in Konoha would do what these people do; they value secrets after all.

"Settle down everyone!" The homeroom teacher said, dropping a stack of paper on his table. "I hope everyone in this room realize that they are now in their final year of middle school. I do hope everyone here have started to think about their future."

Future? What future could she have in this world? Naruto asked herself, pressing her hand against her cheek and listened numbly as their teacher gave them the talk about making the right choice for their future. She wrinkled her nose when he mentioned the career aspiration document. Could she put down ninja? Naruto always dreamt of becoming Hokage, of being a ninja. Her dream had been put on hold because her best friend decided to join a perverted snake. He had to just decide that years of friendship and their one year of being a team didn't mean a shit when compared to getting his revenge. He had to make her fight him and thanks to that ungrateful friend, she was stuck in a world where ninjas didn't exist.

Maybe I can become a hero, Naruto thought, twisting the end of her hair around her finger as the paper dropped on her table. She had her chakra, which allowed her to do some of the things that her classmate could do with the exception that she didn't have a limit. Superheroes had money too and if she was going to be stuck here, then she was going to need all the money that she could get.

She could be the most powerful superhero.

"Yes, yes, I know everyone here has an amazing quirk," their teacher continued, snapping Naruto out of her train of thought. "But everyone here needs to remember that using their quirk inside school is illegal."

Not if you don't get caught, Naruto thought, looking at the paper lying on her table. She knew it was illegal to use her clones but with the bills that needed to be paid, the exams she needed to study for and research that needed to be done, it couldn't be help. She only used her clones to do her studying and the housework. The times when she did make her clones go to school were when Naruto was just too tired to go there herself.

"Sensei, don't place me in the same group as everyone else!" Bakugou declared, drawing everyone's attention to him. "You can't compare me to their weak quirks! My quirk is a whole different ballgame."

Everyone bristled at his comment. "You've got a big mouth, Bakugou!"

Naruto glanced at Izuku, who slumped his shoulders and looked at his table, then to Bakugou. The older boy was always so god damn cocky and had so much confidence in himself that she wanted to break it. He reminded her of the person she used to be but unlike her, Naruto knew that Bakugou had the brains to back up what he was saying. Unlike her, people did believe in his claim of becoming the number one hero. The bastard had shown that he had the capabilities of becoming a hero, even though he did not have the personality of a hero.

If you asked her, Izuku was the person in her shoes because he didn't even have one person who believed in him.

"I forgot that Bakugou is aiming for Yuuei High," one of her classmates whispered to her friend.

The friend gulped. "You mean the nation-level academy? Isn't their entry requirement as high as 79?"

"It's very hard to get in."

"Are you all done running your mouth?" Bakugou yelled, jumping on the table. "I got an A on the mock test. Out of everyone here, I'm the only person in this school that has got a chance of getting in. I'm gonna surpass even that 'All-Might' bastard as the top here!"

"Now that you mention it, didn't Midoriya want to go to Yuuei?" Another classmate asked, staring at the slumping boy.

For a good ten seconds, everyone was glancing at each other and then to Izuku before laughing at their classmate's words. Naruto thinned her lips, narrowed her eyes and slammed her fist on the table, causing everyone to stop laughing. Her classmates blinked their eyes at her and the blonde could feel the Kyuubi's chakra trying to come out. After three years, Naruto had finally learnt how to stop the chakra from leaking out.

"Uzumaki, why the hell did you do that?"

"Does it matter that he doesn't have a quirk? Midoriya can still become a superhero," Naruto declared, glaring at her classmates and teacher. "There used to be comics about superheroes without quirk. Those superheroes worked their asses off to become a hero, they had the brains to accomplish it. Izuku might not have a quirk like us but he has a brain, which is more than I can say for some people."

"You think Midoriya can become a hero? He only knows how to study! You think he can join the hero department of Yuuei High? Don't make us laugh, Uzumaki!" Her classmates yelled. "It is impossible for a quirkless person to become a superhero!"

"Anything is possible," Naruto snapped, baring her teeth at them. "You know there is a first in everything. For all you know, Izuku might be the first quirkless person to enter the heroic department. He could be training his ass off so that he could enter their department."

Bakugou snarled at her words and swung his fist at her table but if he thought she was like the other kids, then he had another thing coming. Kicking her table aside, Naruto grabbed the older boy's fist. He growled at her and the blonde was reminded of the puppies that Kiba's clan loved to keep. She missed her friend. He might be an asshole, a pervert at times but he always allowed her to help him take care of the puppies.

"Did you see that?"

"Naruto blocked his arm."

"Why you little…"

"Call me a bitch and I will break your arm," Naruto snarled, twisting his arm against his back. Bakugou narrowed his eyes at her and the blonde leaned forward till their nose were touching. The people around them began to whisper. "What? Did you think I was going to let you punch my table? I'm not some weakass little girl. Just because I don't go off showing my quirk, doesn't mean I don't know how to defend myself. Don't underestimate me, Bakugou. It is your damn attitude that makes me think Midoriya has more of a chance of becoming a hero than you."

"For you to say all of this makes me think your quirk is weak," Bakugou sneered. "If you had a strong quirk then you would be proud to show it off to everyone. Don't put Midoriya and yourself in the same level as me. You and Midoriya have no chance against a person with a strong quirk."

"I see no point of showing off my quirk in school," Naruto said, quirking her lips into a smile. "As for not being able to fight a person with a strong quirk, I will bet my life-savings that I can defeat them with my eyes closed. Second off, you don't know what my quirk is, Bakugou. You don't know what my quirk is capable of doing. Now as for being in the same level as you, don't make me laugh; I'm in a whole different level. Now do you know why I don't think you can be a hero? Do you even know what a hero is? A hero is someone that protects the weak and defend them…you don't do any of these things. If you can't even defend Izuku then what makes you think you can be a hero?"

"And you think you and Midoriya will be any better? Don't make me laugh." Bakugou yelled, yanking his arm away from her.

Naruto narrowed her eyes. "You wanna make a bet? I bet you that I can get in without any problems. If I win this bet then you will apologize to Izuku for every bad thing you did to him."

"And if you lose?" Bakugou asked, raising an eyebrow at her.

She took in a deep breath and smiled. "Then I will say to you that I was wrong and you are the best hero out there."

"Don't come crying when you realize how stupid you were to think that even Izuku could enter Yuuei High, Whiskers!" He retorted, stalking off to his own seat. Ignoring the stares from her classmates, Naruto straightened her table before giving her fellow blonde a smirk. She glanced at Izuku, who had a strange look in his eyes. Giving him a small smile, she took a seat and stared up at the ceiling.

Her asshole of a classmate was wrong about one thing. If her use of chakra was considered a quirk then it would be a powerful quirk. He had no idea that she could pass these stupid exams with her eyes closed. Her strength alone would be enough to pass the physical part of the exam because god knew that they couldn't throw her anything that she hadn't dealt with before.

Nothing could ever compare to her fight with Sasuke.
