A collection of small 100-500ish word short stories connected to the My Hero Academia fanfiction, "Purpose of a Hero" by Buixy, written by various members of the discord community for that fanfic. They probably won't make much sense if you have not read that first, and some will reference other fan works. They can be about any character. Most will be crack one shots. Non Canon (unless Buixy says so, but it's crack so not likely. Haha)
Wrong core
By: ButtSlapBogan
Alex is doing maintenance on his quirk mechanization a core whose effects change with different cores inserted into his arms. He was having his twin sister Eris assist him but she was distracted by her magazine.
"Ice core!" Alex called out, aiming his arm at the test dummy.
Eris, not taking her eyes if the Magazine feels around for the core. She grabbed one and gave it to her brother. "Here you go."
Alex loads the core into his arm and fire a blast that nearly freezes the dummy.
"Fire core!" The robo armed teen requested.
Eris, again not looking up, grabs and hand him his core. "Gotcha."
Alex loads the core, fires a read blast and melts the ice on the dummy.
"Thunder core!" Alex tells outs.
Eris doing the same course of action hands her brother a random core. "Pink is back in season."
Alex loads the core, fires the yellow blast that hits the dummy but does nothing. "Huh that's weird, the dummy should be du-" Alex started to say before getting a whiff of a horrible rank odor in the air.
Both twins started coughing their lungs out at the smell.
"What the heck cough!?" Eris finally looked up from her magazine to address the smell.
"Damn it Eris, you handed me the Smell core by mistake!" Alex says over his coughs.
"Why do you even have that!?"
A Replacement Cat
By: DragonStorm88
Melody had had it up to here with Nathans constant shenanigans and bothersome behaviour. Over the course of the morning, he had scratched up her backpack, knocked her breakfast too the ground (admittedly an accident), and uttered more joking 'nyah's than she had ever wanted to her in her lifetime. The final straw came when she discovered that Nathan had "borrowed" her homework and forgotten to give it back.
"THAT IS IT!" Melody screamed, fed up with the cat boy, " I am getting a new cat!"
Horrified, Nathan hastily responded, "Please Mel! I'll be better, I swear!"
"Nope! Don't you 'please Mel' me, mister! I'm replacing you with, with, uhhh… LILIA!"
That'll teach him, she thought to herself. But then she turned and saw it. Nathans eyes looked like a Kitten that had been kicked to the curb and denied its bowl of cream, and she broke.
"Hey, I didn't mean it ya furball. You know you're my best friend," she said more softly.
"You mean it?" he asked.
"Of course."
"Sweet," he replied, before booping her on the nose with a wide smirk and dashing off much faster than she could hope to follow.
"WHY YOU-," she started, before cutting herself off. 'Just what am I going to do with you," she thought to herself fondly.
Where Do Those End Up Anyway?
By: DragonStorm88
A Question had been burning at the back of Andrews mind for a few weeks now. Ever since the day the class had chosen their hero names. Where the heck did Eris' discarded Bones go? The things were black, and looked like they were made of the same metal her brothers cannons were made of, so it's not like they were biodegradable. Maybe they were, he'd have to ask. It's not like he knew for sure. Over the course of the past few weeks, Andrew had asked his friends Lyle and Narruk if they knew what the answer was, but they seemed just as enthralled by the mystery. Well maybe not Lyle, he seemed a bit disinterested. Andrew had even asked Eris herself, but she said she didn't have the slightest clue either and didn't care to question it. Alexander apparently hadn't been cleaning up after her either.
And so the weeks went by with the ever unanswered question eating away at the back of Andrews mind, until one day after hero training, the answer presented itself to him. Once again, the Black Bone remains had disappeared from the training grounds. As usual, nobody questioned it. But that was when he saw it. Right there, just at the end of a wall, sat a discarded Black Bone. However, just as Andrew went to go and investigate, a hand shot out from behind the wall and snatched it up. Fearing some pervert was doing unspeakable things with his Classmates Quirk residue or something, he charged around the corner, only to be shocked at what he saw.
Sitting there as if he were a dog, Narruk had the bone in his mouth and was digging away at the ground as if he were going to bury it. Eventually, Narruk noticed his friend standing behind him when he heard the click of a smartphone camera taking a picture.
"Uhhhh… I can explain?"
Whose mans
By: ButtSlapBogan
The freshman boys had gathered around the T.V in the common room to watch Cribs: hero addition. Suddenly a man with a mask pops in front of them all with a knife in his hand.
None of the boys flinch.
"Boy, get your dumbass out of here before you get jumped," Oliver said causing the knife-wielder to walk away saddened. The end.
Unexpected Enemy
By Buttslapbogan
A normal day on the grounds of the forge as the class of FH2 were all relaxing on the school campus. Either studying, playing, listening to music or just relaxing.
When suddenly the sky turned dark and ominous. The class immediately stopped what they were doing and noticed something was wrong.
"Um guys I don't think the sky is supposed to do that," Andrew said in concern.
Dammit Kazani, what did you do!?" Clara yelled at the rainbow-haired girl.
They all looked to the sky and saw a man descend from the dark sky, floating down with an air of superiority. The man wore dark armor and a red cape. This guy radiated power.
"Gaze upon your destruction children of the forge. For it is I, Zalmack the destroyer! Here to wipe out your school!" The man's voice boomed over the class.
"No way!" Melody said, shocked at Zalmack's proclamation.
"Yes, armed with my quirk that lets me control unlimited energy…" To demonstrate he held out his hand and instantly created a ball of energy twice as big as the entire school. This feat left the students jaw dropped. " My ten years of martial arts training in a style so secret and deadly I'm not even going to tell you, my 200 IQ and the greatest weapon… a gun! I will destroy this school and everyone in it as an example and take my place as ruler of the world!" Zalmark shouted to the class. "And no one can stop me! Muahahahaha!"
The class had accepted their fate this villain's power was no joke but Lyle was willing to step forward as he looked up and uttered what he believed to be his final words."Yeah but at least we're not ugly like you."
"Goodbye future hero- wait you think I'm ugly?" Zalmark asked his voice going from intimidating to being insulted.
Lyle continued. "Yeah and I don't mean that lame inside beauty. I mean you are double bag ugly."
"Re-really?"
"Of course, like look at your hair." Lyle pointed at the floating man.
"What about it?"
"You thought a man bun was fit for world dominance?" Lyle asked insultingly. "And are those frosted tips."
"Ye-yeah, they look cool!" Zalnark defended.
Kira chimed in. "They don't. You look like you have a gross donut on your head."
"Plus you got bad zits man." Narruk also getting in on this.
"I've got a medical condition!" Zalnark pouted.
Rylee then joined in. "Is it called gross?" This caused the class to laugh.
Eris also commented."And that outfit! 2270 called and they want their gaudy shoulder pads back."
"My mom bought me this costume!" Zalnark said with a crack in his voice.
"Your mom bought you that!?" Lyle said laughing at him. " Yeah guys, let's bow in fear Zalnark mommy approved costume."
"Yeah and she said look handsome in this, so there!"
"She must as dumb as you are! Loser!" Clara yelled at him.
"Sniff Don't talk about my mom like that." The armored villain said on the verge of tears.
Lyon then asked a question he had been thinking of. " Also your name what are you the Destroyer of?"
"Destroyer of you!" Zalnark replied.
"Then why are not Destroyer of FH2 or Destroyer of students?" Lyon tilted his head.
"Because I want to destroy more! I wanted to be clear!" Zalnark shouted getting frustrated.
"It's clear you're an Idiot." Said Hazel throwing a subtle jab.
Zalnark had enough of this and started to fly away. "I don't want to kill you all anymore! Your all meanies that deserve each other!" Zalnark cried as he flew away sobbing.
This series of events left Melody confused. "What just happened?"
The Boyz
By: DragonStorm88
Payton Billé of Class FH1 was bored. Class was boring him immensely today, and he wished for nothing more than for an excuse to get out of it, no matter how it affected his studies. Fate, however, had chosen this boring weekday to smile on the young Canadian, when he felt the familiar buzzing of one his friends Quirk from back home in Ontario. Smiling a bit, Payton prepared to accept the invitation, as was the nature of his friends Quirk. The Boyz was nothing short of a meme of a Quirk that allowed its user to summon their male friends and allies to their aid so long as they had permission. Seemingly blinking out of existence, the only one to notice was Payton's friend Nathan, whose eyes went wide at the disappearance. 'Too much catnip, not enough sleep…' he thought to himself.
When he poofed back into the room half an hour later as class was ending, somehow still avoiding detection, Nathan took his moment to find out just what was going on.
"What the heck dude! How did you do that and next time can you take me with you?" Nathan asked incredulously.
"No worries eh? The boys back home needed my help was all. Just one of their Quirks. They needed my particular skill set to get a school assignment down from a tree. Not a big deal," the other boy replied cheekily, before sauntering off to their next class.
"Canadians are freaking weird…," Nathan grumbled before following his friend.
The Nightmare
By: DragonStorm88
Melody knew she was having a nightmare. She knew it by that sensation of attempting to run as fast as you can but it feels like the wind is physically holding her back. She could not, however, wake herself up, and she found she couldn't stop running either. There was a large, shapeless… something chasing her, and she couldn't shake its presence.
As the presence grew closer, Melody felt her dream selves heart rate increase with irrational fear. Darting around a corner in slow motion, she saw a cabinet she felt would make a good hiding place, and dove for it as fast as she could. Just in time, she shut the door as the creature came around the corner. Melody held her breath as she heard it scrape around outside her hiding spot. Eventually, after several agonisingly long seconds, the room quieted and she let her breath out. It was for naught, however, as the door was flung open and the monster's shape was revealed.
Melody screamed.
Melody jolted awake, yelling, "Stay away from me Finger Trap Monster!"
Only for her face to begin to burn when she realized she had fallen asleep in the common room and several of her classmates and girls she didn't yet know had all seen and heard the outburst. Melody groaned and hid her face in her arms trying not to think about the finger trap incident as her peers laughed at her expense.
Did We Just Become Best Friends?
By: DragonStorm88
One day, after a joint training exercise between classes…
Kira: "On the count of three, shout out your favourite retro game series. Don't even think about it! Ready?"
"1, 2, 3"
Kira and Payton: "Pokemon!"
Kira: "WHAT!"
Payton: "Did we just become best friends?"
Kira: "YUP!"
Payton: "Do you wanna go do wifi battles!?"
Kira: "YUP!"
And with that, the two new friends ran off to go enjoy some video games, leaving behind some very confused classmates.
FIN
Calls around friends
By: ButtSlapBogan
Melody had been sitting on the couch in the common area of her dorm, on either side of her were her close friends Andi and Kira. They were watching an All Might documentary when Melody felt a familiar buzz in her pocket. She pulled out her phone to see who called, it turned out to be her father Carlyle. "Hang on, it's my dad," Melody answered the phone and began to talk to her parent. "Yeah dad, I'm sitting out with my friends… oh the code to the Netflix, sure it's…" Melody said before she was interrupted.
Kira had put her face near the phone and spoke in a deep fake man voice. "Hey Baby, get off the phone and come lick on these abs, girl," Melody blushed and pushed Kira's face away.
"No dad, that was my friend, Kira! There are no boys here." Melody reassured but as she did another voice joined in.
This time it was Andi doing a similar voice that Kira made. "Come on Mel, let's go make out and touch each other's butts," Andi growled in the phone.
"No Dad, just my friends again." Melody stood up from the couch in a panic.
"Hey bro step off girl!" Kira said in her manly voice.
"I don't see your name on her or her butt! I'll fight you for her right now!" Andi threatened in her manly voice.
"Bring it!" Kira said as they proceeded to have a fake struggle. Melody had her palm on her face the whole time. The fake fight lasted a couple of seconds but Kira stopped it. "Wait, bro, let's not fight over a girl."
"Your right bro she's not worth it. Let's go get a beer." Andi said as they both stood up and went to the kitchen.
Melody couldn't help but laugh a bit. "Well, now I've been dumped by my friends."
Phantom thief
By: ButtSlapBogan
In the common area of the boy's dorm, Marcus walked in front of all the boys currently in the room, with an empty box in his hand. "Ok, which one of you guys ate all my fig newtons?!" Marus said with irritation in his voice.
The boys all looked to Sirius or more specifically Epiphany as she was the only one in the room with crumbs and jam on her face.
Epiphany eyes look around in a panic. "Uh...uh it was a ghost! Oh, wait…"
Magician for a Day
By: DragonStorm88
Everyone knows that when boys are left alone without adult supervision, they will be, well, boys. The types of shenanigans that can ensue from these times are varied, and difficult to predict. It was this truth that Melody witnessed first hand when she went to collect her friend Nathan for their weekly sparring match. Melody entered the Freshman boys dorms and waved to the students she knew. Spotting Narruk, she sauntered over and asked politely,
"Morning Narruk! Have you seen Nathan around? We planned to spar today,"
Narruk grunted around the peanut butter sandwich in his mouth and pointed towards the common room, where Melody saw Nathan with his two friends from class FH1 goofing off.
A boy with brown hair whose name was Payton if Melody remembered correctly was theatrically waving around a stick while Nathan and and a boy whose name Melody thought might have been Zachary or some variation on it sat on a couch watching him amusedly.
"For my next trick," Payton announced in an enthusiastic voice, "I will pull a rabbit out of a hat!"
Snorting, Zach asked, "From what hat?"
"Clearly I have already made the hat…" Payton paused for dramatic effect, "disappear!"
Then Nathan spoke up, "You're a dweeb, Snow Bro"
Payton's face flashed with mock hurt, before producing a set of bunny ears from seemingly nowhere and placing them on Nathan's head before he could react.
"I have made the bunny appear, just like I promised!" Payton proclaimed loudly.
Melody picked that moment to make herself known by laughing, clapping exaggeratedly fast, and saying, "Bravo!"
"I hate everything," Nathan muttered darkly.
"Have a carrot, bunny," said Zach.
This Prank Was So Not Worth It!
By: Wan323
In the boys section of the USAEI freshman dorms, something strange was going on. Narruk had made the number one fatal error in any room full of teenage boys, having fallen asleep on the couch.
As soon as he began to snore, the gears began to turn in the mind of Nathan Larson, as he thought back to a prank he'd thought of but had been unable to use. Until that day.
Immediately he sprinted upstairs, whispering behind him for the others to keep quiet and not wake him up, and to help with a prank he had in mind.
The witnesses had varying reactions to him. Oliver stood up, muttering about it being too much effort, and dragged Marcus out with him to continue their chess game in peace. Sirius squeaked at the thought of messing with the scariest guy in their class, and hopped behind the other couch to get as far away but still in witness range, while Epiphany giggled silently and went over to Lyle and Payton, who- judging by their grins- were also ready to assist in the prank.
When Nathan returned with the prank materials, the three assistants only laughed more, seeing a brown fursuit in his arms, as Sirius sunk further behind the sofa in fear.
And so the prank began.
Putting on most of the suit was fairly simple, although the arms were a bit of a struggle. However due to the fortunate sleeping position of the wolfman, the body part was on without and problems. But then came the head. As Lyle was lowering the fox head onto Narruk, Epiphany couldn't hold it in, and started giggling.
"Shush! If he wakes up we're screwed!" Nathan hissed, while Payton slapped his hand over the ghost's mouth to silence her. But Narruk's eyes had already started to open, and when Lyle's hand slipped slightly and nudged him with the headpiece…it was all over.
Nathan jumped up and ran, yelling over his shoulder a last order to his partners.
"Scatter!" he yelled, booking it up the stairs.
The others followed suit as Narruk stood up, looked at himself, and sighed.
"Alright then. Fenrir it is."
With that said, he took out his battle axe and went charging after the people who had caused his embarrassment.
When Melody stopped by to find Nathan, she was surprised to find the dorm building trashed and a terrified Nathan running towards her.
"Mel, Mel, help me please! He got Lyle, Sirius and Payton and now he's come for me! Save me, Mel!"
The redhead stepped back, confused.
"Who? What happened?"
The cat boy ran round her to hide in the cupboard nearby.
"It was just meant to be a prank! But he's crazy, he's got his axe and he's gonna kill me!"
And as if on cue, out from the kitchen came a strange figure, wearing a brown and white fursuit and carrying a huge battle-axe, who sprinted along the corridor towards them.
"Come her you cat bastard! Fenrir's hungry and all your accomplices have already been dealt with. So come and accept y-" his tone changed to be much more normal.
"Oh hi, Melody. Fancy seeing you here! Have you seen Nathan anywhere? Me and him have...some unfinished business."
A smirk slowly appeared on her face, revenge for all the stupid pranks that Nathan had pulled over the last decade filling her mind.
"Yeah, he's right in that cupboard over there."
No one spoke for a couple of moments, before:
"Mel, you traitor."
Before Nathan burst out and sprinted away, the world's deadliest furry chasing after him.
Melody just shook her head, laughing a little, before heading back to the girls' dorm.
And if she took a couple of photos before she left, well, who could blame her? Those pictures of Nathan getting brutally assaulted by a furry with an axe would look great on the wall of the dorms (and in the group chat).
