Hello everyone. I'm here with another new story. The only one who knows about this idea is NeoGamer, but I'll be writing it a tad different than originally talked about. Rated for reasons, expect dark moments throughout the story and please enjoy the first chapter.
The students sat at their desks, focusing on their work when they heard the door open and looked up to see Toshinori stepping into the room, "You idiot," Shouta mumbled and shook his head, "What are you doing-"
"Midoriya," the former Symbol of Peace spoke in a monotone voice and everyone looked at him, "You're needed in the principal's office," the current One for All bearer looked at his predecessor in confusion before he stood up and walked to the front of the class, walking through the door with Toshinori beside him.
Predecessor and successor walked down the hall in silence, a worrying look crossing Izuku's face. Looking up, Izuku frowned, "Hey…All Might?" Toshinori hummed and looked at him, "I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't use my Quirk in public, I didn't tell anyone about it, I-"
"It's not directly about you, kid, but you should be there to hear what needs to be said," Iruma continued to frown as Toshinori looked ahead, "No matter what happens, always face the situation with a smile, that's what a hero is all about. If the citizens see you smiling in even the darkest of moments, then they know that everything will be okay. That they will have hope,"
"Why are you talking like I'm back in training, All Might?" Toshinori ignored him and Izuku frowned as he hung his head and the two of them continued to walk down the hall in silence.
Izuku, with Toshinori standing on his right side, and Nemuri standing on his left, sat across from the principal, looks of sorrow crossing the faces of the adults, "Sir…I…I didn't break any rules while attending UA…at least none that I know of, and-"
"It's not that," Nezu held up a paw before he sighed and leaned forward, resting his elbows on the surface of his desk, "At precisely nine fourteen this morning, there was a terrible accident in the middle of town. Among the chaos, there was only one casualty," Izuku's eyes widened as all color drained from his face as Nezu shook his head, "I offer you my condolence, boy, but there was nothing that can be done. Your mother was the victim in a head-on collision with a semi…the medical examiners said she was killed almost instantly,"
Toshinori placed a hand on Izuku's shoulder while Nemuri frowned and rubbed his back in a comforting manner, "Are you going to be okay, Midoriya?" Nemuri quietly asked, only to have Izuku ignore her as he stared at the principal in disbelief.
"You're excused from classes for the rest of the day," Nezu stood up and walked around his desk, "Take this time to meditate and clear your mind, Midoriya." Izuku stood up and absentmindedly walked out of the office, closing the door behind him, leaving the three adults looking back, deep frowns painted across their faces, "Toshinori, you're close with the boy. I need you to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't do anything reckless," Toshinori hummed and nodded before he and Nemuri walked out of the office.
Izuku walked into the common room with a blank expression crossing his face as he walked over to the couch and sat down, slumped over with his elbows resting on his lap. Hearing the door slowly creak open, he looked up to see his female classmates stepping into the room, "Hey Deku," the bubbly brunette gave a small smile, "Is…I everything okay? Are you in trouble or-" Izuku frowned and shook his head, "What…what's wrong?" Izuku hung his head, "Deku? Why did you need to go to the principal's office?"
"It's nothing…nothing to worry about," Izuku sighed before he pushed himself up and began walking down the hall leading to the male dorms, "I'll be in my room," eyes followed as he walked down the hall.
Hearing a door open and close, the six looked at each other and Momo got ready to speak when all six of their phones began ringing simultaneously. Quickly digging them out of their pockets, they answered them, "Hello?" Mina's, Kyouka's, Momo's, Ochako's and Tsuyu's eyes widened when they heard the voices on the other end speak to them.
Izuku laid on his bed, his arms behind his head as he stared up at the ceiling in silence. A loud knock at the door jolted him up. He looked at the door with narrowed eyes before another knock abrupted the silence and he heard Momo's voice call out, "Midoriya? Midoriya open this door, we know you're in there!" sighing, the green-haired hero stood up and walked over to the door.
Opening it, he was greeted by the saddened expressions of his classmates, "Deku…we heard what happened…we're sorry, and-"
"How did you hear?" Izuku arched a brow and shook his head in confusion, "I just heard about it myself and I didn't talk to anyone after leaving the principal's office. The only ones who know are me, the principal, All Might and Ms. Kayama,"
"Our parents called us," Izuku looked at his pink classmate as Mina held her hands up and shook her head, "We don't know how they know, or why they called us, but they do and they did, and we'd like to be here for you, Midoriya,"
"Why?"
"Why?" Kyouka sighed and crossed her arms as she rolled her eyes, "No one should be alone after hearing something like that, Midoriya. It'll just push you into a really bad place, so like Mina said, we want to be here for you,"
"Kero, locking yourself away isn't healthy, Midoriya," Tsuyu croaked, "If you don't get it out, you're going to hurt the people around you,"
"And we all know that you're not like that, Midoriya," the invisible member of the group spoke, "We all know that you're too nice of a guy to do something like that, but Tsu's right, if you lock yourself in your room like this you'll end up hurting the people around you,"
Izuku frowned and looked away, "Deku," he looked up at the brunette as Ochako frowned and stepped forward, "We know you're upset over what happened to your mother, but we're trying to help you, show you that you don't need to be alone in this…can we come in?" taking a deep breath, Izuku stepped aside and allowed his classmates to enter his room before he closed the door.
The seven sat on the floor of the room, the six heroines offering comfort to Izuku as Izuku frowned and hung his head. Taking a deep breath, Ochako slowly wrapped her arms around the One for All bearer and pulled him into a comforting embrace as Izuku fought the tears the threatened to fall.
I know this chapter is a bit on the fast side and I apologize for that. Enjoy.
