Throughout his short life Izuku Midoriya had felt fear almost daily. He feared he would never be good enough to be a hero; he feared that one day Kacchan would go to far and hurt him beyond what he could possibly heal from. And worst of all he feared that he would forever stay a quirkless loser everyone knew him as. Yet as he stood here and now he felt a raw primal fear he had never felt before. It was the kind of fear you felt when the quiet girl in your class was stood over you with a knife coated in your fresh blood.

Izuku looked at the blonde standing above him her eyes were wet with tears while her smile was as wide as could be. Izuku didn't know what he had done to cause this all he knew was that he didn't deserve this. He had always been kind hadn't he? He had never been afraid to confront a bully when he saw one ven if he knew that in the end all it would end with was him being covered head to toe in bruises. Izuku couldn't even count on two hands the amount of times he had helped the girl that was about to kill him, yet here he was bleeding from a knife wound to the stomach and no idea how he got here.

Flash back

"Midoriya could you please meet me in the Science lab after school? There's something I want to talk to you about."

Terrified. This was the main feeling Izuku was feeling as he was asked to stay behind after school by a girl. So far in his life Izuku could never be accused of being a particualy social person, he often found himself sitting alone in class muttering to himself about new hero or villain attacks attracting harsh glares from his classmates. Yet here he was, in the middle of his lunch break the day after his first finals of the last year of Junior high getting asked by one of the most popular girls in his class to stay behind after school. Looking around the classroom he could see the unfiltered glares of hatred the boys were sending his way especially from a small group at the back that consisted of Kacchan and his 'friends'. At the same time Izuku saw the way some of the other girls in the class looked at disgust and curiosity at the whole situation likely not liking the fact anyone was talking to the 'useless deku' of the class.

With a nod of the head Izuku turned and ran to the back of the class and sat down while almost trying to fold in on himself like he was trying to disapear from the world never to be seen again. He hated his life. He hated how everyone around him looked down on him; he hated how he could never do anything to prove them wrong; he hated how his life always felt like one big practical joke.

With a soft sigh Izuku just did what he always did when his stress and anxiety seemed to flare up he pushed it down. Deep, deep down into that small fiery pit that always seemed to happily chew away at his pain. Like always as soon as he pushed the emotions away he felt the small pit of emotions swell up and he felt all of the weight of his pain and anxiety slip away as his shoulders almost seemed to be lighter.

Ignoring what had just happened Izuku pulled out his notebook and got to work writing about the latest villain attack he had seen on his way to school today this one was especially exciting after all it wasn't everyday that you got to see a new hero make their debut especially one that obviously had it in them to be one of the highest ranking heroes even if that was mainly due to popularity rather than purely from heroic deeds. Izuku got to work sketching a picture of Mt. Lady unaware that the girl he had promised to meet had just changed his future forever.

Several hours later

It was finally for school to end and Izuku couldn't help but feel relief as he finally had a valid reason to stay in school later than everyone else, maybe this time he could avoid confronting Kacchan today. Izuku made his to the Science lab he had been told to meet her at, it wasn't long until he was there and he was suprised to see the girl was already there waiting for him. She was standing there in the middle of the room staring at the door he was coming through yet even when he came in she didn't seem to register his arrival. "T-Toga I'm here like you asked what is it that you wanted from me?" That was when he saw it, as soon as he spoke her eyes changed from their usual soft blue to a shade of yellow. It wasn't just the colour her eyes had a look of loose insanity as if she was barely hanging on from the edge between the two.

Izuku could feel his body instinctively recoil from the harsh change and this seemed to be all that the girl need to leap forward with a speed far greater than she should be possible for a girl of her size. In an instant she pulled a flip knife out of her pocket and stabbed it firmly into his stomach and just when the he thought the pain couldn't get any worse she twisted the blade and ripped it out like a professional. Without even a thought Izuku felt his body move on its own getting up and running for his life, he didn't get far before he felt a firm kick to his back making him collapse to the ground right on his open wound. He screeched in pain hoping that the sound would alert someone nearby to the problem.

Izuku rolled over to see the blonde standing above him her eyes were wet with tears while her smile was as wide as could be, "Toga p-please r-remember when I helped you all those years ago when Kacchan was hurting you? Please just stop this and we can call it even. Please I'm sorry for whatever I did I didn't mean it." As he spoke he noticed even in his fear addled mind the way Toga's eyes became more and more hazy from tears and her smile became more and more forced the longer he spoke. "Why are you doing this? Is it something to do with your quirk? If it is we can get help you don't need to do this please!" By now Izuku could feel the pain and shock catching up to him, it was all slowly starting to become too much for him.

Desperate for any way to make the pain go away he did what he always did with his pain, he for a second time today gathered all of is feeling of pain and tried to bury it in the pit in his stomach the pit again swelled again much larger than it had ever done. The pain in his stomach started to come to a stop but when he checked he found that all he had done was stop the pain, falling to the floor Izuku looked up at the ceiling. 'I guess that really was a stupid hope, what were the chances that whatever it was I've been doing with my pain these last few years was going to be a quirk and not just some defense mechanism made by a sad lonely, quirkless child.' Izuku continued to look upo in silence waiting for the moment when he would die completely oblivious to Toga slowly lifting her knife to her lips and licking the balde from top to bottom ingesting all of the blood on the knife.

'Damn if only I had somehow heal this wound I might be able to run long enough to get some help, maybe if I'm lucky Kacchan is waiting outside the school still.'

Izuku burst into laughter, he laughed about how until this moment he had been so bitter and angry about his situation; about how no matter what he did he would never be as good as everyone else. Izuku laughed about how compared to now all those thoughts meant nothing, if he was so desperate as to hope his own personal bully was waiting outside just to get out of this situation then he knew just how little everything meant. In that moment he felt all his pain and anger from the past come back full force yet he still just kept laughing beyond caring in for his fears.

Unbeknownst to him as he continued to laugh two forces within in him clashed together creating a whirlpool of power that burst forth through his gaping stomach lightning arced around his body and started to speed up his bodies healing. It was almost in an instant that the once fresh wound was nothing but a fading scar. Yet even still Izuku just laughed the shock and fear finally getting to him as he just continued to laugh. Toga looked down at him and after a couple seconds her eyes lost it's yellow colour and started to change back to her usual 'sane' self. Looking down at Izuku Toga's eyes widened in fear, "Midoriya! No no no no no this can't be happening." Dropping to her knees her tears now freely falling Toga leaned over to him ready to try stop the bleeding.

As she fell to the ground she could feel as her quirk started to take affect as her body transformed into that of Izuku Midoriya. Ignoring her quirk she put her hands where the hole in his clothes was expecting to feel a hole in his stomach but instead all she felt was a small trace of a scar that slowly faded to nothing. Toga was shocked here was a boy that through all her years of knowing him had been bullied and looked down upon because he wasn't lucky enough to be born with a Quirk yet he was able to heal from a stab wound.

Before Toga could remove her arms one of the arcs of lightning strikes her sending a feeling of unadulterated hatred, hatred to the world around her and everyone living in it. The hatred she felt seemed both foreign and familiar like a family member you're meeting for the first time. She understood where this was coming from, it was anger of a lonely boy who she had pushed over the edge while letting her quirks bloodlust take over. All other thoughts were forgotten as she lay down next to him and pulled him in for a hug, placing his head onto her shoulders as she tried to comfort him. "I'm sorry Midoriya, I-I can't help it sometimes my quirk. I-I'm just so sorry I never wanted to hurt you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry." With one final sob she buried her head in the crook of his neck holding onto him desperately never wanting to let go.

For awhile the two just lay there Izuku laughing wildly while Toga letting out small whimpers every time a small bolt of whatever energy Izuku was giving out hit her. However, soon the lightning stopped and with so did his pained laughing leaving him to cry with the girl that had attacked him.

Not a word had been spoken throughout the night but in their heads they had found something equal part terrifying and comforting.
