Glad you liked their moments. All Might took him to the closest place since he didn't have the power to get him to U.A quick enough. Nezu definitely is yeah.

Obtaining One For All
After spending some days in hospital, Yuki finally left the hospital, and together with All Might, they went towards U.A, he didn't know why that was, but it seemed that All Might had his reasons, so he followed him to the school.
All Might was in his smaller form, so he wasn't recognized, and Yuki himself carried his bag with him.
"Isn't it quite amazing?"
"Yeah...I haven't really seen it up close like this before..."
As he spoke, a young girl came running by with periwinkle coloured hair, and the girl glanced back at him, gave a small wink and then ran off.
All Might glanced at Yuki, before showing a small smirk.
"Aah, already seeing the ladies, are you?"
"Eeh...A-All Might! It isn't like that!"
Becoming slightly flustered at the tease of All Might, the older man let out a belly laugh.
"So it's that Uraraka-san girl, the childhood friend Bakugo-san, and this unknown girl!"
"Eeeh, no...either way, what are we going to do now All Might? Tour the school?"
"At a later time. First, I've got something to show you."
Yuki nodded, and as they walked around the building, Yuki saw that All Might seemed to look quite peaceful. It was a nice sight to see, as he had gotten used to seeing All Might acting rather wild for that moment in time.
Yuki then kept going together with All Might.
It didn't take them long for them to arrive at a large building, something that Yuki wasn't familiar with. He could see large glass doors before him, a security like wall that they were able to bypass thanks to the opening, and the building was rather tall.
"These are?"
"Dorms." All Might replied. "Come inside, Nezu will explain more."
"Nezu-san is?"
"The Principal."
Yuki nodded, and walked into the dorms.
As he did, he came to a spacious area with different seats scattered around. He saw a large dining area, with rooms going all the way down a long corridor. He also saw stairs, that went up, and even down. He saw that there was an elevator as well.
It looked brand new to Yuki's eyes.
He then saw sitting on one of the couches by a TV on the wall, was a creature with pure white fur. And he wore a suit. Yuki couldn't tell if it was a dog, or a little bear, but whatever it was, Yuki smiled at it, and bent down.
"Now Young Yuki, this is Nezu, the Principal of U.A!"
"Wow...so, you're an animal with a Quirk, or a person that has animal like features?"
"The first one is correct, though I am surprised you aren't more surprised by me being the Principal."
Nezu spoke, with Yuki smiling.
"I've seen a lot of things Sir, you being the Principal isn't something that really is shocking."
"Hehe, I see~" Nezu responded, as Yuki sat down beside him, placing his bag nearby. "So, this is Yuki-kun, is it? He seems like a curious fellow All Might, the one who is going to be your successor."
Yuki blinked, and glanced at All Might who seemed really relaxed.
Putting a few things together, he realized what was going on.
"So, he knows about..."
Yuki began, with All Might nodding.
"Yes, that's correct, he does know about my situation, so don't worry. We can speak freely in here. No one else is here." All Might sat down opposite them. "So Young Yuki, the reason why I brought you here, is because you'll be living here."
"In these dorms?"
Yuki was surprised, because he didn't attend U.A, he didn't think that he'd be allowed to do such a thing.
Nezu nodded.
"Yes, that's right Yuki-kun, I believe it would be best if you did. All Might told me of your terrible circumstances, and what he wishes to do with you, in regards to his power. So what better place than here? We have several Pro's always around in case this person decides to show up, and the area is well guarded."
"That's...very kind of you Sir."
"I've been thinking about building dorms for some time, so as I did and though some construction is still going on, it shall be finished pretty soon. Of course, as you're here, feel free to use all of the facilities. You will be on your own until the next school year, with All Might of course being close by."
Yuki placed a hand on his face, and showed a small smile.
"I'm humble, and grateful, but I also...don't want to place you or your staff in any danger, Nezu-san. I mean, this man is relentless, I couldn't take it if something happened to you guys, because you were trying to help me."
Nezu smiled at the young boy, as did All Might.
Hearing his words, Nezu understood exactly why All Might had chosen Yuki to be his successor.
"We've become aware of the situation, and we understand the risks. The other Pro's have also become aware, those of the teaching staff, they aren't aware of One For All, but they know the rest of what has happened to you to the amount that could be explained, so they'll do what they can to make your life easier while you stay with us. Speaking of, are you going to apply for the Hero Course?"
"I guess that I will do, if I can. Does staying here gain me automatic entrance into the Hero Course?"
Yuki joked, something Nezu found pretty funny.
"Well, I've heard of your exploits already, so I am convinced that you'd be able to get onto the Hero Course, you will have to take the exam regardless. But, you've got plenty of time for that, now why don't we show you to your bedroom? Have you brought your things?"
"Yeah, here."
Yuki presented his bag, Nezu tilted his head.
"Is that all?"
"That's all I own Sir."
Replied Yuki, to the disheartened Nezu and All Might.
"No, that wont do, we'll get you some new clothes as well Yuki-kun."
Yuki was astonished.
So many people wished to help him...it was a mind blowing experience.
"T-That's very kind of you..."
"Aah right, I also have a present for you!" All Might produced a phone that was blue in colour, and presented it to Yuki. "Here, I have set everything up for you, it is even fully charged! The charger will be in your room. I thought that since you didn't have one, having a phone would be best, and I've put my number in it, Nezu's and a few others that I think would be good to have. I've also taken the liberty of choosing the wallpaper for your phone, feel free to change, but I like it, and think you will too."
Yuki looked at it, and saw that it was All Might himself giving a big thumbs up.
Yuki glanced up at him, before chuckling.
"No, that wont do." All Might tilted his head as Yuki began using the phone. "How do you get up the camera...these are so new to me...oh, is it just that button?" He asked Nezu, who nodded. "Right...okay here! Say cheese All Might." Yuki moved to the side of All Might, and did a peace sign to the camera, so All Might did the same thing, and Yuki took a picture of the pair of them. "That will do."
"A picture of my smaller form huh?"
"Whatever form you are, you're still All Might to me. The man that saved me."
All Might showed a grin.
"Aah, that's very kind Young Yuki. Now, you must be tired, lets show you your bedroom."
"Yes...unless there's anything else to discuss?"
Nezu waved his hand.
"That can wait, the main important thing is, that you can relax here. You're perfectly safe."
Nezu had no idea on how much that really meant to Yuki, and what it felt like to have such words spoken to him.
"Thank you Sir, I truly do appreciate it."
Nezu bowed his head, as All Might stood up, and Yuki did the same thing.
"All Might, please show Yuki-kun where the bathroom is and other facilities that he can use as well, there's a few things I have to take care of."
"Can do!"
Yuki bowed to Nezu, then walked off with All Might.
Walking down the corridor, All Might showed where each location he'd need. The bathroom, the kitchen, and other things that he could use. All of it was amazing to Yuki, to be able to be in the dorms like this, to feel safe, it was an experience he hadn't felt...truly ever if he was honest with himself, besides a few exceptions that were few and far between.
Yuki saw a room with his name by the door, so he walked inside, to see a rather cozy room. It wasn't huge, but it wasn't small either. It had a closet on the right hand side as he entered, a TV against the left hand wall, with the bed fitting perfectly in the corner towards the right hand side near the large window.
Moving inside, Yuki sat on the bed, and whispered "Comfy." as All Might moved closer.
"We'll begin going over One For All, and training your body when you've rested for a little while. Though to be honest, I've seen how strong you are physically already, so it might be a thing that you will only have to train for a little bit, I'll need to see before making any judgements."
"I see, thanks All Might...I think I'll be going for a bath...and then I might get some sleep."
All Might nodded.
"Yes of course. But Young Yuki, may I ask you a question? I don't want to bring up any hard feelings..."
"You're wondering about my family, right?" All Might showed a nervous smile. "It's okay, I knew you would want to know. My family...were killed...in a tragic event, when I was very young...right before my eyes."
"Was it...a Villain?"
When All Might asked that, flashes of that night ran through his mind, the faces of his family, the fear in their eyes, the blood on the ground, all of the destruction...
He placed his hand on his chest, and began breathing more and more rapidly, he felt queasy, so All Might placed his hand on top of Yuki's head.
"It's okay, you don't have to say anymore..."
Yuki calmed his breathing to become stable, before shaking his head.
"No, it's...it's okay...It's really difficult thinking about it...to be honest, it's hard recalling everything...but I remember my family being killed...and seeing my brothers scared and tearful face...as he reached out to me..."
"I see...and before that Young Yuki? What was it like for you?"
"Even before that...my home life was...it was painful."
Hearing that, All Might raised an eyebrow.
"How so?"
"My Father...He...He wasn't a nice man to put it mildly, he was strict...he made us feel scared, and whenever we spoke about Hero's, if we wanted to be them, or even simply mentioning them...he'd punish us kids, sometimes...physically. I couldn't stand what he did, how he scared my family, so I'd stand up to him when he would yell or frighten my brother or sister...I couldn't stand seeing them scared..."
Hearing that, made All Might realize even as a young boy, Yuki had conviction to protect others.
Even against someone that scared him, he wanted to protect those he cared for.
"I asked my Mom once, why he did these things...she said it was because...he himself was...abandoned and felt angry about that...but, even then, he never...should have taken his pain and anger out on us..."
"You're right, he shouldn't have done that."
"My Mom...said the same thing...she said, my Father...wanted a happy family...but we weren't happy. Everyone in my family knew that...and my Mom told me once as she apologized to me with tears in her eyes...she wouldn't stand for it and she'd do her best...That's why...I want to be a Hero...so people don't have to feel like I did when I was a kid...I want to be there for people, for them to turn to me, and feel safe."
As he listened, All Might felt for the young man, such a life for someone so young.
Yet as he listened, he also felt Yuki truly was kind and was someone that would turn his negative experiences into something that could help others.
But right now, All Might placed his hand on top of Yuki's own, and offered comforting words.
"That's a wonderful thing Young Yuki. So remember Young Yuki, this place is your home now, you can do as you like here. No one will bat an eye if you happen to watch TV, or go into the kitchen at...lets say two in the morning, think of this as your own. This is your home Young Yuki. You're safe here."
It was strange thinking of it as home.
Even having a home at all was all new to someone who didn't have one for so many years.
"That's really nice...thank you."
"Then I'll let you get settled in."
Yuki bowed, as All Might stood and walked towards the door.
As All Might left him alone, he laid back on the bed, pulling out the stuffed All Might doll that he had with him.
Yuki smiled at the doll, before hugging it into his chest.
Soon, he drifted off to sleep, All Might came back in a few minutes later.
"Young Yuki also I should tell you..." He paused when he saw Yuki fast asleep, so All Might smiled, and walked over to the bed, pulling the bedsheets over him. "Have a good rest Young Yuki." All Might pulled back, and stared on. "This poor child...I am curious about his family...but it's clearly difficult to speak about so I wont ask anymore. I'm sure in time, and with help, he'll be able to confront that past...and I'll support him all of the way. I'm sorry your Father did those things Young Yuki...but you're very compassionate, and you have such a kind heart despite those circumstances..."
All Might watched for a few moments, seeing Yuki looking rather peaceful.
The next morning, Yuki got up, and went to the dining room. He was going to go to the kitchen, when he saw that on the table, there were a good deal of food that had been laid out. He also saw that All Might was sat at the table, and was casually eating some food.
"Aah, good morning Young Yuki!"
"Morning All Might. This food..."
"Aah, please take what you can eat, made by a great chef!"
Yuki smiled, and sat down beside the older man, gathering some food.
Despite his slim frame, All Might saw that he piled on the food, more and more of it, it seemed that he really was hungry and began eating it rather quickly, to the point that All Might could have mistaken him for having super speed.
"So Young Yuki, now that you've had a chance to relax, I'd like to go over something's, if you don't mind?" Yuki glanced at him, nodding a single time. "Great! Then first, I presume you've never been to school, so by extension you've never had any proper education, right?"
"Not really, I was able to read and learn from different types of books when I could. Like before my family...what happened, I knew how to read and write to an extent and did what studying I could, Kacchan also was able to teach me some stuff...though mostly it was curse words."
All Might snorted.
"I see. That's why I've got some tutors for you. And about One For All, you see, One For All at full power would probably snap your limbs off of your body if you aren't ready in the body department. However, from what I've witnessed, you'll only need a short time in building up your body, only if to make me feel 100 percent certain you're ready for it."
"Well, my time on the run has prepared me to take on the power haha." Yuki laughed lightly. "So I train and then gain the power, then what?"
"Well, we'll train with the power...also Young Yuki, I think now would be a good time to tell you. The man that was chasing you, I think I know who it is."
Yuki wore surprise on his face.
"Y-You do?"
"Yes...he was...is my greatest enemy, he is a man named All For One, at least that's what he goes by. You mentioned about these creatures having multiple Quirks, he has the power to take Quirks of others, and either use them himself, or give them to others."
Yuki furrowed his brows.
"That would make sense...but what did he want with me? My Quirk? If so...why did he try to kill me? Can he take Quirks from dead people?"
All Might shrugged.
"I wish I could tell you, that would be my best guess. I couldn't be certain what else he'd want from you, but the fact that you were able to be one step ahead of him, who at one point in the past was named as Japan's greatest Villain, is remarkable. I thought I had stopped him a few years ago, for good...but after witnessing what I did, I'm convinced that he is still out there, our common enemy. He is the one that did those injuries to my body."
"All Might...I'm so sorry."
"No, you don't have to worry. And also, I'll say now, if I give you One For All...he will come to see you as a target."
Yuki nodded.
"But he does anyway, All Might. Regardless if I have the power or not."
All Might gave a serious look.
"That is true, I wanted to tell you, so you know the facts before we do anything."
"That's very kind of you, thank you for telling me, but it doesn't put me off. This man...he's a monster, he needs to be stopped. The next time he shows up, we have to be prepared, so if you're still willing, I'm still willing."
All Might adopted a bright smile.
"I'm glad that you said it, so when you're ready, want to begin?"
Yuki smiled, giving a big "Yes!" and continued eating with All Might, just enjoying the simplicity of it.
When Yuki was ready, All Might brought him to a certain beach. One that was filled to the brim with trash.
Large and heavy everyday objects had washed ashore, or had been dumped there, Yuki wasn't entirely sure, it could have been both.
All Might jumped on top of a large washing machine, and beamed down towards Yuki.
"Alright, now it's time to build those muscles of yours! First, we should begin by cleaning this beach!"
Yuki cracked his knuckles together, and then nodded.
"Alright, no problem. So since this is to build my body, I presume that my Quirk is out of the question?"
"Yes, that's right! Merely your own body! Now once this beach is cleared...I'd say that you'd be ready. Say, want a before and after shot?"
Yuki looked down at himself, and shrugged.
"Sure, go for it."
"Great!" All Might pulled out his phone and took the picture as Yuki did a peace sign. "Alright, now lets begin!"
"Right!" Yuki rushed the washing machine, and to All Might's surprise, he saw that he was beginning to move it, All Might thought was quite outstanding, showing he had degrees of enhanced strength. "Geez, All Might, how much do you weigh?"
Yuki joked through gritted teeth, All Might showed a bemused smile.
"I'd prefer not to answer that~"
Yuki laughed as he continued pushing the washing machine.
They spend practically the entire day doing these things, and because Yuki didn't have to worry about going to school, he had more time to do these types of things, though he did have his lessons that he had to attend to help with the academic side of school when he would get there.
Seeing how he tackled the situation, and how hard he was going.
He was pushing himself more and more.
Even when he took a break, it was only for a short time, and then he'd tackle it once more.
All Might was rather impressed with what he was seeing before his eyes.
As the sun was setting in the sky, Yuki leaned on a nearby wall and panted, some sweat dripping off of his body.
All Might saw that some heavy objects had been fully cleared off of the beach, showcasing Yuki's never give up attitude.
"Phew..."
"Hmm, you've got a good deal of physical strength, it's as you had said, your time on the run has indeed helped your physical strength. So tomorrow, ready to keep going then?"
"Yes, I'll do my best!"
"Then lets keep at it!"
Yuki nodded with a grin, and stood up together, so they could train tomorrow.
When Yuki had the opportunity, he finally managed to go towards Himiko's home with a Hero from U.A following him in order to keep him safe should anything show up.
He hoped Himiko was doing well at least.
So he stood outside, and knocked on the door.
When the woman came to the door, Yuki recognized her as Himiko's Mother, who wore a scowl on her face.
"What are you doing here exactly?"
Her tone was rather harsh and unforgiving.
"Ah...erm, good day, my name is Yuki, and I came to see if your daughter is-"
"I don't want you anywhere near my daughter, you're a bad influence."
Yuki was taken aback by that.
"I'm sorry?"
"You're turning my daughter into...into some kind of deviant!"
"With the greatest of respect, from what I saw of your daughter, it seems that these feelings she has, she's had them for much longer than I have known her, and I wished to know if she was okay, if she needed any support."
Himiko's Mother furrowed her brows.
"What do you know about this?"
"She has an obsession with blood, I've seen it first hand, I want to make sure that she is okay, that she isn't being overwhelmed by such sensations. As I'm afraid that it could lead to...darker impulses if she isn't helped with managing the urge."
"That kind of behaviour isn't tolerated in my home, I will not stand for it."
Yuki was beginning to understand more why Himiko was crying when she drunk his blood.
"With respect, if this is apart of her, suppressing it will only lead to a big blow out when she can't suppress it anymore and it could cause her to do something that, if she was given an outlet for her desires, wouldn't necessarily do. Since it is blood, what if she attacks someone because the urges become too much?"
The Mother stared at Yuki, trying to work out what to say.
"Why do you care about my daughter? You don't even know her."
"You're right, I don't know her that well. But she looked like she needed help, when she drunk my blood." Himiko's Mother placed a hand over her mouth, looking disgusted at her daughters actions. "Yes, she drunk my blood, and in the moments she did, she cried. She was crying with relief, finally like this burden has been lifted from her shoulders yet at the same time, she looked at me with those yellow eyes she has, and she looked to be in emotional pain."
"But she drunk your blood...it's not normal. It's disturbing..."
"It's not her fault, if this is what her Quirk is literally forcing onto her. It would be the same if someone had a water Quirk and they'd have to drink water constantly to stay hydrated or something, take that away, tell them they can't ever drink water, that it is disgusting that you want to do the very thing your body is compelling you to constantly do, that would play more and more on their minds, until they snapped and would do anything to gain water, even potentially hurt people to get what their body is screaming at them to do."
Himiko's Mother looked on, and thought about what he said.
Putting it from that angle…
It did make sense.
"...You seem to really care, but I don't understand how you can...drinking blood, it isn't normal. Even as a child..."
"I don't want her to go down a dark path, if you want me to help in anyway, then please call me, or give this number to Toga-san so she can talk to me. It might help, and that's all I want to do. I've also printed out some places that can help, here."
Yuki produced some papers and gave them to Himiko's Mother, who looked at him curiously.
Though he didn't know her that well…
He did relate to her circumstances.
Being who she wanted to be, but no one allowed her, having to live a lie, and having to deal with all of this by yourself...he understood it very well.
Himiko's Mother accepted the number Yuki gave her along with the folder resting in her arms, as he pulled back.
"Thank you for your time. Could you give my regards to Toga-san for me?"
"...Yes."
Yuki bowed, and walked off, thinking while he got vibes from Himiko's Mother that she wasn't the most pleasant of people, she was simply scared, and the fear of the unknown, he did still worry for Himiko.
Yuki looked back at the house, and thought "I can be there for Himiko-san...and All Might mentioned Nezu-san would also speak with the family...I'll do my best to support you Himiko-san." and then he walked off, hoping that Himiko's Mother would give his number to her daughter.
Himiko's Mother went back inside, and saw Himiko herself stood there.
"Mama, who was at the door?"
She contemplated lying.
Just throwing the number away and simply forgetting everything that he had said.
However, a niggling feeling inside caused her to not do that.
"That boy...he was here, he gave me his number for you."
"Mama..."
Himiko received the number, surprised that her Mother would even do something like that.
Her Mother then walked off towards the kitchen, while looking at the papers.
She glanced back at her daughter, before she simply placed the papers to the side, thinking "It seems that boy does care about Himiko...I don't know what to do with that child..." as she sat down.
Himiko smiled, and put the number in her phone, ringing it right away.
She waited for a few moments, but the smiled as she heard a voice.
[Hello.]
Hearing his voice again was something that soothed her.
"Yu-kun...it's really you..."
[Toga-san, I'm glad to hear your voice. Are you okay?]
"Now that I'm speaking to you..."
Himiko smiled to herself, and placed a hand on her chest, thinking deeply about what was going on inside of her, and spent the next hour speaking to him.
So much relief filled her, someone that understood her...
It was the best feeling.
It had been nearly a week since Yuki began training, he hadn't had a chance to see Katsuki yet due to having to put a few things in place along with sorting out a few things in Yuki's personal life and health among other things, but that was going to change that day as he was expected to be around pretty soon.
Katsuki laid around her living room, waiting for him to come.
Eventually, there was a knock at the door.
But before she could get to it, Mitsuki ran to the door, to Katsuki's growing annoyance.
"Don't you dare!"
Katsuki ran after her, with Mitsuki flying the door open and revealed Yuki stood there.
"Hello, you must be my daughters adorable cute boyfriend~"
"Hag!" Katsuki snapped from behind, and got beside her. "Stop saying weird crap!"
"But Katsuki, he's really cute and has sweet eyes, lock this one in before anything else happens, okay? I want to become a Grandmother one day."
Katsuki's face flew through several shades of angry redness.
Yuki was quite similar, and ended up having a good deal of redness on his face as well, though he wasn't angry like Katsuki.
"Hag! What did I say huh!?" Mitsuki laughed while Katsuki grabbed Yuki's wrist. "Come in! We're going to my bedroom!"
"Katsuki, that's so forward all of a sudden."
Mitsuki was eating this up so well.
Katsuki angrily shot a glare for her Mother, who in turned laughed happily.
Yuki was then dragged by Katsuki to her room. When getting inside, Yuki looked around and saw the different things around. He also saw that she had some games, some that seemed rather interesting, though he did see that they were mostly fighting games, which he thought fit her rather well.
Katsuki pointed to her bed.
"Sit here." Yuki did just that, so she sat down next to him. "So, now that you're back, what are you going to do?"
Yuki thought that was an odd first question to ask.
It felt like she wished to say something else, but didn't know how to find the words to say it.
"Well, I'll be going into U.A, if I can pass the exams that they'll have when the times right. I'm sure that you'd do the same thing, right Kacchan?"
"Damn straight, I'll be going for U.A, only those that rank at the top can attend such a school."
"By the way, sorry that I didn't come earlier, a few things had to be sorted out...you know, with what happened back then...and it's been quite hectic. I wanted to come earlier, but it seems that I am free to come whenever I want...t-that is, if you want me to come."
"I want you to come over whenever."
Yuki felt glad that she had said that.
After that, Katsuki stayed silent.
So Yuki began, knowing that she might have some questions that he wished to answer.
"Kacchan, you can ask me about the time we separated, until now...I'll answer anything that I can to the best of my-"
Before he could finish his sentence, Katsuki spoke up.
"What happened to you...after we last saw one another? You were in a bad way..."
"I was...in a bad way, I remember that I was injured a good deal. Some of the details, I don't remember much about...but, basically, I was...this strange man that I haven't even met, had this...weird thing come after me. I had to run away from it, it was really strong, but somehow, I managed to get away. After that...I tried coming back, to you, but you know the rest from there… I knew my only options would be to either accept my death...or to run away and get stronger to fight….so I did that, I'm not letting some bastard win."
Katsuki adopted a small smile.
It was the same Yuki she remembered from the past.
"How did you...get by? You worked in that shop...anything else?"
"I did jobs that I could do, you know, ones that would draw the least suspicions, that someone my age could do. It was rough for a while, but I was able to eventually get steady work and go to different places, and work, earn money. I ran from town to town, and made that bastard follow a trail of misleading clues about me, leading him to the middle of nowhere. It seemed to work for a good while at least."
"I see...damn Yuki, if I had known..."
Yuki understood what she was going to say, he didn't want her to feel sad about it.
"I knew if I told you I was alive...you'd want to come and find me, but if you did and he….he got his hands on you, Kacchan he's very powerful. I've witnessed first hand his power, it's a miracle I managed to get away from him."
Katsuki lowered her face, as she tightened her hand.
She understood more now, why he didn't come to her.
It was such a horrible situation to be put in, having to do it all on his own, she felt more and more angry at who had done this.
"Who is it that did this to you? I'll go and destroy them!"
Yuki placed his hand on top of her own.
"Trust me, I feel the same way. I only wanted to come and be with you again Kacchan, I really missed you."
"You're back now...that's all that matters to me. Though I wanna go and kick that bastards ass!" Yuki adopted a small smile. "So, where do you live? Can you say?"
"Yes, I can say. I live in U.A's dorms."
"U.A has dorms?"
Yuki chortled.
"Apparently in the near future they'll be open to all students. Though, they wont accept me on the Hero Course without having to do the exam hehe~"
"Damn straight, no fast track for you!"
Yuki let out a small laugh while Katsuki felt her lips tug upwards.
But then Katsuki furrowed her brows.
"You kept the name Yuki, even going by Yu. I was surprised. You could have been anything, anyone, yet you still had that name..."
Yuki's eyes danced up Katsuki's face, before leaning closer.
"Because I really love the name, Kacchan. I cherish the name."
"Heh...it's only a name, is it really something to cherish?"
"When it was given to me by someone I really lo...care for, then yes, I think it is. And I see, you still wear that necklace..."
"Of course...it was one of the only things I had of you..." As she spoke, Yuki saw her lean her head on his shoulder, hiding her face from view. "...So many things are running through my head right now...it's hard to understand..."
"I know…it's very hard Kacchan. But, I'm glad...that you're still as feisty as ever."
Katsuki sniffled, before she pulled her head up, meeting him with narrowed brows.
"What do you mean by that?"
"So passionate, and strong willed, I saw it when we fought together." Yuki then pulled out his phone, and showed it Katsuki. "I have a phone now, can I have your number?"
"Asking for my number, are you trying to chat me up?" Yuki did a spit take as she took his phone off him. "I'm saving it under Kacchan." Katsuki then sends herself a message once putting her number in Yuki's phone. "Got yours."
"Yeah, now we can text~"
"Don't text me before seven in the morning, I will be asleep! Unless, it's like an emergency."
"Got it~"
He laughed out.
But then he paused, and pointed to a game.
"Kacchan, wanna play that? All Might said he'd pick me up in a few hours~"
"Haha, watch and learn then!"
"Sure, teach me oh wise Kacchan~"
Yuki settled down beside her, as she booted up the game.
As he watched, Yuki smiled, and leaned his head on her shoulder, something that surprised her.
But seeing his smile, she also felt a more relaxed and enjoyed her time with Yuki.
Yuki and All Might, two and half weeks into the training regime, was quietly eating the food together. With Yuki eating rather normally, as All Might gazed at him with curious eyes.
He saw that he used one hand to lift a good weighted dumbbell, and used the other to continuously manipulate small objects with his Quirk to increase the quickness of forming complex shapes.
Even now, seeing how Yuki was doing it, how dedicated he was, filled All Might with pride.
But today was a special day, since it was the day of Yuki's birthday, or rather, it was his birthday party.
Yuki didn't know All Might had planned this.
All Might had asked Katsuki about it, and found out when his birthday was before he was taken in, and because of that, he didn't think it was right that they didn't get to celebrate it, so All Might was hoping to make some amendments to that.
"Hey Young Yuki, U.A has a big swimming pool, it should be empty this time of day, why don't you go there to relax? For this time of the year, it is rather warm when usually it is cold, you should take advantage of that. You've been working hard."
Yuki raised an eyebrow.
He was wondering what this was about.
"...Right, okay."
But he didn't disagree, he still was curious as to what was going on inside of All Might's head however.
"Great! Then finish your food, and run along! Come back at...lets say four, okay?"
"Erm...sure, I suppose. Though training..."
"Aah, Young Yuki, I am glad that you are very passionate about training, but remember that resting and relaxation is also key to becoming stronger, you've gone much faster than I expected. Today, just relax, and enjoy yourself, training will be there tomorrow."
Yuki gave suspicious eyes, but shrugged, doing what All Might had asked, and simply went out of the way for the day.
Yuki went towards U.A's swimming pool, wearing his trunks, he walked out of the changing rooms, only to see that there was already someone there.
Wearing a bikini that was a blue colour, barely any cloth that covered the breast area, and a thin pair of bikini bottoms. Having a cute expression on her face, long periwinkle hair that twisted around at the back, she laid on the side soaking up the sun.
Yuki blushed at the sight of the beautiful girl, and when he went to pull away to give her alone time, he backed into a wall, making a small amount of noise, so the girls eyes turned towards him, and saw Yuki stood there, scratching his cheek.
"Ehehe...I-I was told that the swimming pool would be empty...I'm sorry for disturbing you..."
"Ooh, hello there sweetie, aren't you ever so cute?" Yuki blushed as the girl leaned up, tilting her neck to the right cutely. "Actually, I got last minute permission to come here, been having quite a tough week, school can be so hard, you know?"
Yuki shrugged.
"I wouldn't know, I haven't been."
The girl tilted her head.
"Really? Ooh wait, your blue hair, I saw you on TV, you're that boy who fought the sludge guy with that exploding girl?" Yuki nodded. "I see, you're the boy that lives at U.A, right?"
"Yes...that's right."
Yuki was acutely aware that the students knew of him, but only to the degree that they knew he lived there and not much else, because some might question if they saw him, Nezu simply gave an explanation that was satisfying but without speaking the full truth about him.
"Your name...ooh wait, my name is Nejire Hado! It's a pleasure to meet you, what's your name?"
"Yuki."
"Yuki-kun! How nice, come over here for a bit." Yuki walked over, as Nejire smiled with a glimmer to her face. "Look at those soft blue eyes, and that hair reminds me of the sky or the ocean~ It looks so precious. So, how are you feeling?"
"A little nervous..."
He admitted as she budged closer.
"Hehe, I'll take care of you~"
"Thanks..."
"So, chocolate or strawberry milkshakes, which do you prefer?"
"I quite like chocolate..."
"Ooh, favourite colour?"
"It's..."
Before he could answer the girl moved onto a different topic all together.
"Ooh, what about your favourite cheese?"
"C-Cheese?"
"Right, right. So your favourite cheese?"
"Well, I haven't thought about it before..."
"How about chicken, do you like it?"
"Yes..."
"Ooh my gosh, I want to know so many things about you!"
Yuki was baffled by her energy.
But he definitely enjoyed it quite a bit.
"So, you go to this school to become a Hero..."
"Yup, I'm going to become the Hero Nejire-chan! Hehe, well that's what I want to be, I'm training really hard, and doing my best. Though I have to work up my way with the speed of my Quirk, since it kinda goes slowly with the spirals and such."
"Spirals? So it goes slower?"
"Yeah, that's right. When I fire it out, they move in a semi slow movement so they can be dodged I guess, at least that's what I've been told hehe. Though it can hit some people, and I can use it to devastate a good deal of things, it is still something that can be a bit of a challenge sometimes hehe~"
"I see...well, I suppose that if you closed the distance between you and your enemy, then the speed wouldn't be much of an issue."
Nejire tilted her head.
"Hmmm, yes, I think you might be right~"
"And depending on how your Quirk works, maybe it could be used in short bursts, for like speed."
Nejire moved her neck side to side, as she leaned closer.
Yuki's face turned redder as she placed her hands together close by his face.
"Wow, it seems that you're pretty smart, huh? So, you're coming to U.A? If you are, maybe we'll see more of one another~ I've always wanted to have a cute junior to cuddle and take care of you know?"
Yuki blushed even more as she looked towards his eyes.
Her hand placed itself on top of his own, drawing more heat within.
"T-That would be nice..."
"Great! Then leave it to me! Remember, when you wanna tour, come to me, and I'll definitely give you a tour. For now though, wanna swim? That's what you came here for, right?"
Nejire asked, Yuki nodded.
So he stood up, and bent over the side of the pool, but Nejire yelled "Bonzai!" and jumped into the water, splashing water all over him.
Yuki fell back, before laughing, seeing Nejire splashing around.
"Come in, the waters great!"
Yuki smiled, and jumped into the water.
Going underneath, Nejire did the same thing, and did a peace sign towards him, he smiled back, and enjoyed the time with Nejire.
Swimming together, and in certain points, even floating together and spoke for what seemed like hours.
Though they only just met, it seemed that they clicked pretty well right away with their easy going personality.
When Yuki came back a few hours later towards the dorms, he was surprised as suddenly, party poppers were going off in his face.
[HAPPY BIRTHDAY!]
Yuki watches as he saw Ochaco, Mei, Katsuki (who didn't look pleased she had to wear a party hat), All Might, Nezu and some others had come to wish him happy birthday. The front lounge of the dorm seemed to be decorated and Yuki found it to be absolutely delightful.
"T-This is...y-you didn't have to do all this for me..."
"Shut up and enjoy it!"
Yuki heard Katsuki yell out, while Mei moved closer.
"You didn't tell me that you lived here Yu, or Yuki, whatever you call yourself."
Mei happily went around him, and placed her hands on his chest, Ochaco and Katsuki's eyes looked on, one in shock, and the other in rage.
"M-Mei-san..."
"Hmmm, even more muscle. You know, since I'll be coming here, and my goal is to invent, I really should get your measurements now..."
"Oi you! Steam punk!" Mei glanced at Katsuki who raged at her. "Yeah you, hands off Yuki, right now! Before I turn you into Swiss cheese!"
"Swiss cheese? But I am only feeling my assistants body."
"A-Assistant in what?"
Ochaco asked, with Yuki preparing for what Mei was going to say, seeing the glint in her eyes.
"For making babies of course-"
As soon as those words left her lips, Katsuki flew into a rage.
"DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
Katsuki lunged at Mei before she could finish, who let out a scream and hid behind Yuki as Katsuki tried getting close.
Ochaco was left reeling and shaking side to side at the sight before her.
"M-Making babies?! Y-Yuki-kun and Hatsume-san are making babies?! They've got children on the way! Babies!"
Ochaco spoke it out so rapidly that she did it in a single breath, which was quite worrying for Yuki.
"No it isn't like that...I don't have any children..."
Yuki tried to explain, but Katsuki growled.
"What about our promise Yuki?!"
"Kacchan, you remember our promise?"
Yuki happily said, Katsuki snarled.
"Of course I remember! But now you've done it with her of all people!"
"What's wrong with me?"
Mei asked, Katsuki's intense eyes shot for her.
"What isn't wrong with you!?"
"That's cold. We don't even know each other that well."
Mei murmured, Katsuki looked livid with Mei, so Yuki tried to defend her.
"I haven't done anything with her like that!"
"She said making babies! What else could that mean?!"
Mei laughed, and pushed forward.
But then backed down when Katsuki's intense eyes went towards her.
"She means like, robots and stuff. Not actual...c-children. She calls her inventions, her babies."
Katsuki and Ochaco blinked.
"R-Really, that's all it is…?"
Ochaco giggled at how silly she got when she thought Yuki and Mei had done such things, but it also made her question why it did bother her so much.
Katsuki on the other hand huffed.
"Fine, if it is just that, whatever."
All Might laughed at their little back and forth, before clapping his hands together.
"Young Yuki! Present time!"
"P-Presents, I have presents?"
"Yes! Please come here!"
Yuki did just that, and walked over.
First, All Might brought out a full body sized wall poster of himself, signed, something that Yuki found genuinely quite funny.
"I thought this one, an exclusive poster that had only ever had a very rare printing! I hope you enjoy it!"
"Thank you All Might~"
Yuki smiled out, with All Might grinning ear to ear.
Yuki then felt Mei tapping his shoulder, so he turned to see that she had pulled out what looked like a gun.
"Eeeeh! Don't fire a gun!"
Ochaco yelled, with All Might sweat dropping at the grin Mei had.
"Relax, this isn't a real gun, it's a capture gun! I perfected it Yuki-kun! It fires out nets now and doesn't strangle people, promise~ Isn't that amazing?"
"Aah, Mei-san, this is really great, thank you."
Mei rubbed under her nose with a grin on her face.
Ochaco then moved closer.
"I didn't really know what to get, but I did make this."
Yuki watched her pull a sea shell themed picture frame that she had created herself.
"W-Wow, that's..."
"I'm sorry, it probably isn't that good..."
Yuki shook his head.
"No, I really love it, I needed a picture frame for an important picture I have, thank you Uraraka-san. You put a lot of time and effort into this, it means a lot to me."
Ochaco giggled sweetly, and rubbed the back of her head with blush marks adorning her cheeks.
Katsuki then pulled out a half eaten cookie, placing it on the table.
"There."
Yuki sweat dropped.
"A half eaten cookie?"
"I got hungry, either have the other half or don't."
Ochaco and even Mei sweat dropped, while All Might looked on wondering if she was having a joke or not.
When Yuki didn't respond, she took the cookie and ate it before his eyes.
"I guess you didn't want it."
"Kacchan..."
"Relax, I got you an actual gift. Here."
Yuki watched as she pulled out a beautifully wrapped box.
Unwrapping the box, Yuki opened it, and saw that she got him a Mirko doll, something that made him smile.
"Aaah, Kacchan~"
"I just remembered you saying you liked her, that's all."
"I do, I think she's awesome." Yuki held onto her hand, causing her to blush. "Thank you Kacchan."
"It's fine..."
Yuki smiled, as he looked over those that had gathered.
Then they continued the birthday party, they danced, not particularly well on Yuki and Katsuki's parts, but Ochaco thought it was funny. Mei tried to give Nezu some of her inventions to show how great she was, but they kept exploding, so he eventually ran away from her.
They all had some cake together.
They all enjoyed their time together.
It was a birthday party that might not have had the most people.
But it didn't matter to Yuki.
Those that were there, made him feel accepted.
Warm inside.
It was a birthday party that Yuki truly did appreciate, and only made him really like All Might even more, thanking him for what he had done for him, giving him the chance to finally just have a normal relaxing time with friends, something that Yuki had craved for such a long time.
He only wished Himiko could have come as well.
After only nearly two months of intense training that pushed Yuki a good deal, something that even All Might was astonished by, how hard and dedicated he was to becoming strong enough to begin wielding the power of One For All.
With Christmas right around the corner, Yuki was working harder than ever to do what is necessary.
All Might watched on from the side, as Yuki pushed the final piece of scrap metal off of the beach.
"Without using his Quirk, he's been able to move all of these heavy objects in such a short amount of time, accounting the studying and other activities, Young Yuki's done astonishingly well, he's so dedicated and his determination to growing stronger, and also doing his best, it is simply outstanding..."
All Might couldn't be more proud of the young man than he was right at that moment.
No, he had many prideful moments when it concerned Yuki.
He still kept surprising him, being able to fight for as long as he had, how he was adjusting to a normal life again and how he was prepared to take on the tasks of One For All as well, with All Might explaining about it a good bit, and still, Yuki was ready and willing to take on the power.
Yuki sat on a nearby wall, and exhaled slowly.
"Finally...done it All Might."
All Might moved closer, and rubbed his chin.
"Young Yuki, this is...simply amazing to see. You've dedicated a lot to this, the speed you went as well." As he looked over Yuki, his lips curled up more and more. "With this, I think it will be time to give you the power of One For All. Though you haven't changed all that much it seems in the body department, but still, it's noticeable, and I think that now, you can handle the power without your arms and legs blowing off."
"Right, then if you think I'm ready..."
All Might nodded, pressing his hands to his hips.
"I think you're ready Young Yuki, very much so!"
If All Might thought he was ready, then Yuki also felt ready to accept the power.
"Right! Then, what do we do for this...transference to take place...but this is something I've thought about for a little while...say that I do this, if I do, what about you? Do you lose the Quirk then?"
"No, not right away. I'll have, what's called embers of the Quirk, I'll be able to make use of the power for a good while yet."
"But when they run out..."
"Yes, I'll no longer have One For All's power to access. With this wound on me from my battle, I would eventually be unable to fight, so don't worry about this taking it away from me, I'll still be a Hero yet."
Yuki nodded, understanding the seriousness of it.
"Then I'll be ready All Might. For when...when it is my time, until then, will you please keep teaching me?"
All Might grinned.
Hearing his words, it was clear he understood what this meant.
He was putting his hopes and future into Yuki, and he was taking it as seriously as he had wanted him to.
"I'm glad you understand the situation well, and of course, I'll offer all of my wisdom to you, and support you."
"I'm very grateful, thank you...so, what do we do?"
All Might developed a rather surprisingly sinister look, as he plucked a few hairs out of his head.
He then presented them to Yuki who blinked rapidly.
"Eh..."
"Young Yuki, for you to acquire my power, you have to sample part of my DNA!"
"S-So, I have to...swallow your hair?"
"Yes!"
Yuki cringed, and looked at All Might with bewildered eyes.
"Seriously? This isn't one of your jokes, is it?"
"Nope, I'm quite serious!"
Yuki looked at All Might's hair, and then towards the elder man himself.
He once more cringed at the strand of hair.
"Ooh...okay...okay, right...okay..." All Might raised an eyebrow as Yuki took the hair, and stared at it. "Geez...you know, I'm just going to go for it. Get it out of the way."
"That really is the best way."
All Might added, Yuki nodding slowly.
Taking it between his fingers, he tightly shut his eyes, and placed the hair into his mouth.
"Don't think about it, just do it. Just do it...go for it Yuki, it's a nice piece of thin chocolate...it's just chocolate...that's hairy...ugh, okay...here we go...lets do this..."
Yuki chanted over and over again within his mind.
All Might watched on, showing a curious face.
But then showed his encouragement.
"Go on Young Yuki! Do it! Do it! DO IT! EAT IT! SWALLOW THE HAIR! YOU'VE GOT THIS! EAT IT!"
Yuki did his best, in swallowing the hair.
Once done, Yuki placed a hand on his chest, scrunching his face up.
"Okay...it's done..."
"Well done Young Yuki!"
"Thanks! Though may I ask, can it work with like, any kind of DNA? Say you gave me a drop of blood, as not everyone has hair, you know?"
"Yes, blood would work as well. It's as you said, any kind of DNA would suffice. As long as I am willing to pass on the Quirk that is, it would work with anything regarding DNA."
"I see, that's pretty cool~ But it's done now..."
In the middle of them speaking together, Yuki suddenly heard something.
"...Yuki..."
He paused…
It was a feminine voice.
One he didn't recognize, yet one that felt so familiar.
He wasn't entirely sure why that was either.
"All Might...did you just hear something?"
"Hmmm? Hear what?"
Yuki looked around.
But he couldn't see anything.
"It's just, I heard what sounded like a woman's voice calling my name...weird huh."
"I didn't hear anything, still that is a bit weird..."
Yuki hummed as they talked for a little while.
As they did, Yuki felt something rise within him.
It felt...weird, but right at the same time.
He couldn't describe it, but it felt like something was deep within him that wasn't there before.
As he felt it come, it felt like arms were wrapping around him, kind arms that felt familiar and yet not at the same time, and he heard yet again "...Yuki..." whispering more clearer in his ear.
Without understanding who the voice belonged too and how the voice knew his name, he did know what was now bubbling inside of him...
It was One For All.
Though she spoke to him on the phone, Himiko was feeling more and more down with her parents actions, or rather, lack of allowing her actions. She knew Yuki was trying to get to her, and she herself was also trying the same thing, but her parents wouldn't let her.
No matter what she did, even if she tried to be the same good girl…
She couldn't do it anymore.
She couldn't pretend after having a taste of blood.
She wanted more and more.
She wanted to go to where Yuki was.
The only one that understood.
The one that showed her kindness despite the fact that she did drink his blood directly.
He accepted her normal...and wherever he was, she wanted to be as well.
End chapter!
So, this chapter was a nice calm relaxing chapter, with Yuki going towards U.A, under the protection of U.A and now living at the dorms that Nezu brought forward after hearing what was going on with Yuki himself. He also told All Might some about his family, and his past, and how even now it still weighs heavily on his mind to the point he feels sick when thinking about their deaths, but for those wondering, he will tell All Might his last name is Shimura way before All Might would find out in canon, All Might's respecting Yuki's feelings and waiting for him to come to speak to him after hearing and seeing how difficult it is for Yuki to speak about his past. Yuki also met Nejire, who seems to be quite attached to him and they had sometime to speak. All Might also threw Yuki a birthday party, the first one he's had in many years, with his new friends gathering.
Then at the end, as Yuki finally gained One For All, it seems a certain voice called out to him, and Himiko herself is also going through quite a bit, what will happen, we'll see next time. For those wondering,
Well until next time, thanks for reading!
Yuki; Ochaco, Mei, Katsuki (fem), Shoto (fem), Momo, Himiko, Nejire, Tsuyu, Jiro, Camie, Itsuka, Ibara,
