Izuku knew that he wouldn't do well conversing with others, spending most of your life in a hospital will do that to you after all, so when his new teacher tells himself to introduce himself to his new class he had no idea what to say, well he did, he just had to say his name and that's it, but when his voice doesn't exactly want to work it's a problem, especially when your over hyperactive childhood friend is also in that class with a surprised look on his face, maybe he shouldn't of kept this as a surprise.

His teacher coughed, signifying that he wanted him to hurry up, so Izuku hurried up, "M-my name's Midoriya Izuku!" He spoke whilst writing it down on the board behind him in chalk, "Anything else? A fun fact or anything like that?" The teacher asks, he's supposed to say more? He can't just say his name? He needs a fun fact? "Uhhh, I've lived in a hospital for most of my life" he said with an uncertain tone, nice going Izuku, what a great fun fact.

"What the fuck Deku?!" Izuku knew instantly who that was, there's no mistaking that voice anywhere, "H-hey Kacchan… Surprise! Or something" Izuku sighed internally, he knew how awkward he sounded, can the teacher just tell him where his seat is already? "All right, all right, calm down Bakugou and watch the language, you can have your little reunion later, as for Midoriya, there's a free seat in between Matsui and Kagawa, can you both raise your hands for Midoriya" after the teacher spoke a girl with orange hair and a buff guy with no uniform on his top half rose their hand and there was indeed a free seat in between them.

The lessons were nothing special, Izuku had learnt all of this in the hospital already, benefits to having smart people around you 24/7 he guessed. When the bell rang, signifying the end of the school day, a few people came over and talked to him, asking questions such as "You really lived in a hospital?", "What's your quirk?" and "What's that thing you're wearing?" Whilst he did his best answering most of them they were interrupted by Katsuki ``Move extras, Deku's mine to talk to" the other students protested "What the hell dude?" A few pops were heard by the students and they dispersed, Katsuki looked towards Izuku with his usual 'don't fuck with me' face, "Hey Kacchan, uhh, how've you been?" Katsuki clicked his tongue "Follow me Deku." And so Izuku did just that.

Katsuki walked for a while, it was mostly silent with a few moments of Katsuki telling Izuku that they were crossing a road or turning a corner, it wasn't a bad silence, but it also wasn't a comfortable silence, Izuku didn't mind it, he could finally hang out with Katsuki again. They finally stopped in an alleyway, Izuku looked at Katsuki, he didn't seem angry, he couldn't tell if he was happy to see him or not, he hoped it was the former. "Why- how the fuck are you in school? How the fuck are you outside in general?" Katsuki asked angrily, "Wow Kacchan, no I'm happy to see you! I'm hurt." Izuku responded sarcastically, "Fuck off Deku, you know why I'm confused! Why didn't you tell me earlier? What about my parents? Why haven't you told them?" Izuku laughed "Your parents know, you're the only one that doesn't, it was meant to be a surprise." A surprise that seemed to work, however the reaction wasn't the one he was expecting, he was expecting a more loud one, well not that this one wasn't loud. "What the fuck? That old hag kept it from me! I knew she was acting weird!" Katsuki said letting off a few little explosions, "I'm guessing you being here has something to do with that weird shit you're wearing, those scientists finally did something useful" Izuku protests "Not the scientists, monkey." Katsuki was confused, "Monkey?", "Yep, monkey", "Don't fucking mess with me Deku!" Izuku laughed and Katsuki scowled, Izuku then went on to explain that Winston appeared randomly with Eraserhead one day and gave him the Chronal Accelerator he was wearing, as well as how it allows him to 'blink' as he called it, which was him fast-forwarding his timeline a little bit, Izuku ended his explanation with fighting words, "This makes me your rival Kacchan, it's gonna be me who becomes the next number 1 hero!" Kacchan let out a toothy grin, "Yeah right Deku, nothings changed, I'm still gonna be number 1."

"Ehh… Since you're all third years now, it's time for you to think seriously about your future." The teacher begins announcing. "I'll pass out handouts for your future plans now, but you're all…" With a hearty laugh, the teacher throws the pamphlets in the air. "Pretty much planning to go into the hero course right?" When the teacher finished his little speech the entire class let out a cheer activating their quirks, "Of course!" Their celebration was cut short thanks to Bakugou Katsuki, "Hey teach, don't lump me in with all these extras! I ain't gonna be some local town hero, I'm gonna be the best of the best!" he exclaimed proudly, "Ah yes, you're aiming for U.A aren't you Bakugou?" The teacher comments, this came to no surprise to Izuku, he knew Kacchan would be aiming for U.A as well, they had talked about it with each other after all, the teacher looks toward Izuku, "You're also aiming for U.A, aren't you Midoriya?" The class starts to mutter about how low of an acceptance rate U.A has, and that Bakugou was the more likely one to get accepted, Katsuki, hearing this shouts at his classmates, "At least Deku has the balls to even try to get into U.A, what about you extras huh?", Izuku not wanting to leave his defense to Katsuki, speaks up, "Don't worry Kacchan, I'll just have to prove them wrong."

"Hey Deku, I'm going to the arcade with freaky fingers and a few others, you coming?" Izuku looked at Katsuki and thought about it but eventually decided against it, "We don't have long left until the U.A entrance exams, I think I'm gonna focus a bit on training for them… Maybe another time?" Katsuki nodded understandingly "See you around then" and with that Katsuki and Izuku departed from school, going their separate ways.

The way Izuku trained was mostly for his speed and endurance, of course, he trained his strength as well, he was definitely stronger than most people he knew, but most of the time he was focusing on getting faster and being able to go faster without getting tired out. His training had allowed using his 'blink' ability up to 3 times in a few seconds, technically he could use it 4 or 5 times but if he did that he would be out of it, the most he had to wait if he got tired from using his ability is 10 seconds. That might not sound like much but when someone is disappearing and reappearing all around you during a fight it can take a lot out of you just trying to keep up with tracking them. He continued his walk home whilst writing in his notebook about pro heroes and if he could use any of their abilities, or change them to work with his quirk.

The light around Izuku dimmed as he walked under a small tunnel, it was eerily quiet, something Izuku didn't pay any attention to, the only sound one could hear was his footsteps. That was until he heard something behind him, as he looked behind him he saw slime coming from a manhole, he knew he should've reacted faster, that was his thing, after all, being fast, however, all he did was stand and watch as the slime jumped at him, and he exclaimed "A villain?!" in panic. "Calm down, it won't take too long, 45 seconds at most." The villain said, trying to stop Izuku from struggling, Izuku couldn't think straight, if he could he probably would've used his blink to free himself from the villain, but when the said villain is forcing slime into your mouth and feels like every single pore in your body, thinking straight isn't something most people could do. The only thing Izuku could think about doing was going back, deciding to go to the arcade with Kacchan, if he did that he wouldn't be in the situation he was right now, go back! He kept repeating in his mind. "I wonder what your quirk is, whatever it is, you're my hero," the villain said, all Izuku wanted to do was go back. Izuku's body suddenly disappeared from the villain's clutches and he was at the beginning of the tunnel again, where he was 15 seconds before the villain attacked him, he was out of breath, but it didn't feel like he was out of breath because of what the villain did to him, more so of what he just did, did he move his timeline backward? He can think about it later, right now he needs to get out of the villain's sight. "So some sort of teleporting quirk, I want your body even more now boy!" The villain jumped towards him once more.

"FEAR NOT" a loud booming voice was heard, and the slime villain had been taken out and put in a bottle quicker than Izuku could blink, "FOR I AM HERE!" Izuku couldn't comprehend what had just happened, he had been saved by All Might, the one and only number 1 hero! "A-all might! Thank you! Can I get your autograph?" All Might looked towards the boy in front of him and exclaimed "You already have it!" as he handed Izuku his notebook on the page where he signed "Now excuse me, I really must go hand this to the police, ciao!" All Might then jumped off and left Izuku, fanboying over his notebook, "I can't wait to show Kacchan!" He then started to start his journey back home, this story would make his mother faint, maybe he should've asked All Might another question, like can he be a hero? Oh well, the only reason he would need to ask that is if he had doubt in himself, or if he was quirkless or something.

"Of course I can be a hero."
