Chapter 5: A new Origin. Part. 5
Last Time
Izuku stood their head held high, tear pouring down his face, with his two closest friends at his sides to witness it all! Struck with a new found determination to truly push himself forward he knew that now was the start of his story to becoming a hero, and he felt the flicker of the fire burning deep within him burning bright with this new wave of emotions feeding it!
Now
The morning air was cold and the sun just peeking over the horizon with the wind also blowing a cold chill, along with the fact that it was also right on the water making it even colder. However the day prior and coming were supposed to be hot, so a cold morning was refreshing for most. Especially for All Might who was walking along the sidewalk to the beach. He like the calm and cold of the mornings as it numbed the pain of his scar and gave a sense of freshness down his sore throat from coughing blood.
He was just about their to Dagobah and decided to check the time, he pulled out his phone and it read 6:45 am. Maybe he should have left a little bit latter. Now he was gonna have to be board waiting for his new protege to get here, and knowing most kids he probably would be late on his first day. Maybe he could assess the area of the beach to find out what Izuku could do first, since he could tell the young teen doesnt workout a lot, if at all.
He breathed a breath from the refreshing cold air and held it in for a while until something spooked him so bad he gasped and immediately began coughing blood! A flash of green streaked past his field of vision and an air current blew by him so powerfully that it caused his hair to blow in front of his face!
After pushing his hair back and wiping his mouth clean he blinked a few times to make sure he really did see...whatever it was and exclaimed, "WHAT IN THE-!" "World are you doing here?!", Someone fishned his own sentence in a different way.
Lucky they didn't sound too far ahead so All Might picked up the pace a bit. I mean who else would come to this beach and at this hour of the morning, besides him of course. When he got to the source of the mysterious voice he found none other than his proteges two weird friends standing on the sidewalk near the beach! What were their names again….Kōun'na Kin'un and Hikari Sokudo right?
Ko was sitting calmly and relaxed on one of the concert dividend, that separated the beach from the sidewalk, with a smug look on his face as he flicked a gold coin. He was wearing black sweat pants and shoes with a black hoodie. Hikari was standing next to Ko complaining about something to him with a deep pout on his face as he held an extra large cup of coffee in one hand and a box of donuts in the other. He was wearing a white hoodie with grey sweatpants and green shoes.
As All Might approached the two teens he began to hear their conversation unfold.
"How in the world did you even get here before me!?", Hikair complained to Ko with a deep pout as he stamped his foot.
Ko flicked his coin a few times before answering. "Don't know, I guess I'm just...lucky.", he stated with a smug look. Hikari groaned at his catchphrase in response. "Lucky lucky me."
"Would you please stop saying that stupid catchphrase!", Hikari moaned!
"Right after you stop being a shameless flirt.", Ko shot back.
All Might thought now would be a good time to interject into their conversation and clearing his throat said, "Hello boys, fancy seeing you here?"
"All Might!", they both said in surprise.
"I didn't expect to see you two here so early in the morning or even here at all. Why are you here if you don't mind my asking?", All Might asked them.
Ko stole a donut from Hikari as he answered, "Are you kidding me? One on one training from the number one hero, the better question is why arent we here!"
All Might scratched his head awkwardly and stated, "I don't mean to sound like 'that guy' but I sort meant this for young Midoriya exclusively. And I thought you two, um, dislike me."
Ko waved his hand at his accusation and replied, "Oh don't be silly All Might we don't dislike you. You just made a really really really dumb decision that made us mad."
"Gee thanks.", All Might stated sarcastically.
"You're welcome.", Ko replied cheerfully.
Hikari chuckled as he took a sip from his coffee cup and replied, "Yeah and besides it kind of our duty to butt into our friends stuff. Whatever Izuku does we butt into it, and whatever we do Izuku an one of us also butts into it."
All Might chuckled and said, "I have to admit it's nice to see such close friends like you three. Though I must ask why you three are this close to one another if you don't mind."
Ko stopped flipping his coin and began to rub it nervously. "Well that's kind of a delicate issue, but to give you an idea lets just saw that I oue Izuku for everything I have.", Ko then looked down at an All Might umbrella that was standing at his side and slowly stroking it continued, "Literally everything."
All Mights curiosity was peaked at this point wanting now to know more than ever what young Ko meant by all that! Yet he knew he shouldn't push the subject any further, maybe he would find out another time at a latter date.
Then Hikari gave his answer as he literally inhaled the entire box of doughnuts in under a few seconds along with the large coffee in under a few chugs! "Izuku is one of the very few people, apart from my family, that tolerates me and my personality.", Hikari explains.
"Psh! That's a lie. I tolerate you.", Ko shot at him.
"Psh! Yeah right! You can nearly stand me on a good day.", Hikari shot back.
"Only cause I prefer my company with a slower pace and not a 12 mile a minute personality."
"Please I've meet people with a fast pace and even they are overwhelmed by me."
"AHEM! Boys!", All Might called the two teens attention. "I don't really see the harm in letting you tag along in young Midoriya's training. After all as a hero it's my job to encourage and teach the next generation of heroes."
The two boys the pumped their fists while saying, 'YEAH!', silently.
"By the way what are your quirks again?", All might asks awkwardly.
"Electric Speed!", Hikari excliames cheerfully!
"Luck.", Ko says calmly.
"Luck isn't a quirk.", All Might sweat dropped.
"Yes it is.", they both state.
"Alright Alright I'll take your word for it.", All Might agrees with them.
"Now we just have to wait for the bell of the ball.", Hikari jokes.
"No need to wait he's already here.", Ko stated while pointing a thumb behind him.
Hikari and All Might looked behind where Ko was sitting and in the not too far distance they saw Izuku running as fast as he could!
All Might was baffled, extremely baffled! "When-What-How did you know that?!", All Might stammered out flabbergasted!
Ko shrugged his shoulders as he replied smugly, "Guess I'm just...lucky."
Hikari groaners again while All Might sweat dropped at his response. Then turning to Hikari he asked the tall teen in a hushed voice, "Is that his catchphrase or something?"
"Oh trust me All Might it only get worse the more you hear it. You'll be prematurely bald from pulling your hair out.", Hikari replies in a hushed tone.
Izuku finally catches up to the trio completely winded from his sprinting, he rests his hands on his knees and bends over huffing and puffing to catch his breath! Once he gains enough air into his lungs he chokes out a few coughs and looking to All Might in a breathless voice repeatedly apologized for being late. All Might looks at his phone again and sees that it's only 6:50, and tell Izuku calm down since he's not late at all.
"Well All Might you know what they say; to be early is to be on time and to be on time is to be late.", Ko states.
Izuku finally notices his two other friends standing next to his idol and with a confused expression on his spent face asks them breathlessly, "What are you guys doing here?", before either of them could open their mouths to answer Izuku quickly cut them off saying, "Oh who am I kidding myself. Of course you'd be here.", Ko and Hikari smile in response.
"Well I'm glad that we had this conversation but for now it's time for your training.", All Might butts in. "Are you three young men ready?"
"YES SIR!", they all exclaim!
All Might smiles with a nod and says, "Good, then let's begin!"
To say that the training All Might had planned for them was hard would have been an understatement! It was gurgling, rough and tough, it pushed them past their limits, it made them feel like they were more dead then alive, it was Hell!
At least for whoever was doing said routine, for two of the three teens aren't having as much trouble as the wimpy green friend. Currently Hikari was taking his training in stride as he dashed up and down the beach grabbing whatever he could, pilling it in his arms and bringing it to the curb, then repeating said process at half the speed of sound. Ko wasn't doing much of anything apart from sitting on some scrap meat as a chair and watching the other two which flicking his coin. And Izuku, oh poor poor Izuku, he had it worst of all! Not only was he pulling a full sized refrigerator through the slick morning sand without a dolly, but he had All Might of all people sitting on top of it and in his hero form! This literally could not be any worse!
"Come on young Midoriya, you can do it! If you want to reach your goals you have to push yourself beyond your limits!"
"I've never done this kind of training before! Shouldn't I be starting on something a bit more my current speed? You're already making it heavy adding an extra 600 lbs.", Izuku yelped out as he pulled with all his might!
"You only have a few months before the UA entrance exam starts so have to work hard to bulk up fast! Also I've been slimming down lately so now I'm 560.", All Might explains.
"You can do it Izuku! Also are you sure the two of you aren't related, cause that is such a dad thing to say.", Ko stated bluntly.
Izuku stopped pulling and All Might nearly fell off his perch at the question! "For the last time Ko-san were are not related!", Izuku exclaimed!
Ko just shrugged. "Well whatever, but I'm still keeping that theory on the back burner. But All Mights right you gotta push hard Izuku."
"Psh yeah right, you're one to talk. Me and Izuku are the only ones working.", Hikari dashed into the conversation.
"Correction; Izuku is working and your taking small debris so you can maintain you're super speed and not have to compensate for it while leaving the heavy stuff for Izuku.", Ko states snoodly.
"At least I'm doing something! And what are you doing laxing lucy?", Hikari shoots back.
"I'm supervising, so one of you three ding dongs don't hurt yourself by accident, also I'm you're good luck charm so chance of something bad happening decreases.", Ko replies with a heavy dose of high sarcastic snobbishness.
Hikari rolls his eyes in response at his reply and attitude.
Izuku was still trying to pull the refrigerator with everything he had, which wasn't much, and eventually slid and fell to the ground. He pulled himself up and and turning to All Might with tears in his eyes cried out, "I thought you said you were going to give me your quirk? How is this giving me a quirk?"
All Might chuckled before taking out his phone and snapping a picture of Izuku's expression as he was still on the ground crying. He looked at the picture after taking it and not only saw Izuku crying in the photo, but also Hikari had photo bombed it making a silly face holding up two peace signs. Along with Ko who had a shocked expression on his face as he was being pulled by Hikari, no doubt having been dragged into the photo. All Might turned to the two teens off to the side and saw Hikari with a happy smile on his face and Ko with a shell shocked expression as he softly asked what happened.
All Might turned back to Izuku and explained, "The reason I brought you here to move all this junk is not just for strength training, community service, and restoring the beach, but also to ready your body for my quirk. As of now you are an unsuited vessel for it."
"But I thought you said I was worthy of inheriting it?", Izuku cried out.
"You are spiritually worthy, yet not physically worthy. If you tried to use All for One without any form of strength then you're very limbs would explode from the sockets!", All Might exclaimed as Izuku began to scream at the very thought! Ko had been so shocked by this news of his quirk that he missed his coin as it fell to the ground.
While Hikari said silently, "I just peed myself.", he then excused himself to go and change and was back only moments later.
"That's why we're here, the more strength that you have the more you will be able to control All for One!", All Might said as he hopped off the refrigerator and oer to a pile of garbage where he placed his hand on top of it. "You see young Midoriya you in particular have to work harder than anyone else to achieve this goal. Mastering All for One is no small fete and you have to push yourself far past your limit in order to grab hold of it. You have to find your limit and push past it, PLUS ULTRA!", All Mights shouts as he crushes the trash in one push revealing the sun rise behind it. "Only then will you find your light after wafting through the dark."
Izuku looked on in wonder and awe of his mentor and his words. It was clear to him then, that he had to work harder than her ever had before! He he wanted his dream to come true then he would have to do better than everyone else around him! He knew he had to do this and he was dame well going to!
Then All might hopped back on his perch and shouted, "Now pull this fridge like you mean it!"
Izuku sighed at this losing his previous feeling just as quick as it came and grabbing the ropes he pulled with everything he had again!
"Come now young Midoriya is that all you have? You're gonna have to do better than that if it means you'll get into the entrance exam!", All Might called in encouragement!
"Oh come on All Right give him a break. I'm mean, Izuku hasn't really done anything this physical in well, ever. So give him something easier to work with or at least hop off that fridge to reduce the weight Fat Might!", Ko vexed the hero.
"Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might!", Hikari chanted like a child.
All Might sweated dropped at their behavior and replied boldly, "If he can move this then he can move anything in this wreck. Now give it all you got, Plus Ultra!"
"I am!", Izuku squeaked out!
"Come on you can do better than that!", All Might encouraged him!
"I cant!", he squealed out again, this time feeling a warm sensation build up inside of him
"Get off the fridge All Blight!", Ko commanded the hero!
"Sure you can, now heavy!", All Might continued to encourage!
"I cant!", Izuku squealed as his body screamed for rest and oxygen. The warm feeling was now feeling like a flame and it was growing larger the more he pushed!
"ALL MIGHT!", Ko yelled!
"Young Midoriya!", All Might called!
"Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might Fat Might!", Hikair chanted.
This was too much for Izuku to handle at once! He was pulling with all he had on an object that was too big for him to pull along with the extra weight! His mentor wasn't helping as he was the extra weight and shouting at him to keep going! Ko was yelling at All Might to stop which didn't help, and Hikari wasn't even helping at all! He felt the fire inside of him burst forth in a huge wild flame that engulfed the whole inside of his body being feed by his stress and building frustration! It was ready to burst through him and so it did when Izuku shouted at the top of his lungs, "I….CAN'T!"
Suddenly Izuku exploded, literary, in a huge ball of fire! The force from the explosion was so great that it burned the roped around him instantly along with knocking Ko, Hikari, and even All Might right off their feet and onto their asses at the sudden surprise and power exerted by it! The force from the explosion stopped as quickly as it came and their stood Izuku in the center of it all completely clothed in a veil of green flames that seems to be seeping out from his own body making looking like he was made of fire! The heat from his fire was so intense that it not only burned the ropes in a snap, but some of the nearby trash, and warped the metal of the fridge, along with making the sand under his feet turn into glass!
Ko, Hikari, and All Might all slowly got to their feet soloy while not taking their eyes off the young scrawny teen that was now made and clothed in fire! The looked on with shock and awe unable to say anything at what they were looking at, that was just so frighething and breathtaking at the same time! Izuku was now breathing heavily as he let his stress and frustration finally subside in him.
He took one last breath and finally opened his shut eyes, when he did the first thing he saw were the star struck expressions of his friends and mentor. He looked around trying to find what it was that had them slack jawed but the he looked down at himself and saw that his body was now made of light green fire! He reeled back for a moment almost ready to freak out, but he quickly noticed that he wasn't burning alive, just living in it.
He looked between his hands and body unable to comprehend words. "Wh-? What's going-? Wh-? What is-?", he slurred in fascination and fear.
Hikari was the only one able to speak and react the only way any of them could by stating, "Izukun. You're...on fire.", was the only thing to come out of his mouth.
Suddenly Izuku felt light, real light, as if he just lost a whole bunch of weight in an instant. He briefly wondered why he felt like this until Hikari answered his question exclaiming, "N-Now you're fly-I mean flying!"
Izuku looked down at the ground and noticed the he was already 3 feet off of it! He immediately panicked and his body started to tumble through the air uncountably was while still ascending! Izuku screamed in panic and cried out, "GUYS HELP!"
Hikari was the first to recover from his shock and aid Izuku. "Don't worry Izukun I got you!", Hikari exclaimed as he zoomed over and grabbed his hand before he could descend higher. Unfortunately he forgot Izuku was still on fire and immediately let go screaming in pain, "AAAAAAAAAAAAH! HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!", he screamed as he ran in circles!
He then ran over to the ocean and plumbing his hands in, with a more relaxed expression he sigh in relief saying, "Oh..yeah!"
Ko was the next one to try and stop Izuku accent and quickly grabbed some rope that was nearby. "Izuku grab onto this!", he called while throwing said rope. Unfortunately he too forgot he was on fire and the rope burned up instantly when Izuku grabbed hold of it. "Shoulda saw that coming.", Ko drawled out.
He then quickly caught sight of some metal wire rope and grabbing it he shouted, "Grab hold of this!", unfortunately it only worked a little longer than the normal rope when the wire rope began to heat up and melt! "OUCH! HOT HOT HOT!", Ko cried as he let go of the the heated metal!
"HELP!", Izuku cried out desperately.
"AAAAAAAH! WHAT DO WE DO!? WHAT DO WE DO!? WHAT DO WE DO!? WHAT DO WE DO!? WHAT DO WE DO!?", Hikari screamed as he ran in circles around Ko like a mad man!
Ko managed to grab hold of Hikari and slpaping hi across the face to stop him exclaimed firmly, "Stopping panicking, calm down, and think of something to do!", he then immediately turned to All Might and shouted, "All Might! Think of something to do!"
All Might gave a thumbs up and exclaimed,"Don't worry my boy, I'm already on it!", the hero then jumped from his spot and into the ocean where he stood knee deep.
"What's he doing?", Hikari question as he was still being grabbed by Ko?
"I have a bad feeling about this.", Ko stated in a dreadful tone.
"TEXAS!", All Might cried as he stuck his arm in the water!
"Uh-Oh!", Hikiar squeaked as he zoomed off.
"NO WAIT TAKE ME-!", Ko cried out desperately to his fast friend!
"SPLASH!", All Might finished with a BOOM as he forced the water out creating a huge tidal wave!
"with you.", Ko finished his sentence meekly. Ko then immediately grabbed the first thing he could to shield himself from the incoming wave!
The wave washed over a good portion of the beach the group was standing on and the water reached high enough for it to hit and douse Izuku mid air! When the water subsided just as fast as it came Ko opened his eyes to noticed that he was holding onto his All Might umbrella open for protection and completely dry. He let out his breath he didn't know he was holding and said, "Whoo! That was a close one. Thank you lucky umbrella."
Ko then lifted his umbrella to look around at where everyone was now. Hikari was out of sight and probably ran off to the other side of town in fear! He'd be back soon, All Might was still in the water with a worried expression on his face. And Izuku was now lying motionless on the ground and no longer on fire, "OH MY GOD! IZUKU!", Ko yelled in panic as he ran to his downed friend, with Hikari appearing not too long after.
He ran to the front of the green haired teen and exclaimed in worry, "Izuku are you all-Naked Naked Naked Naked Naked!"
Izuku was in fact naked right now. Not wearing any flame resistance clothes they all burned up to a crisp when he burst into flames, and now the teen was laying on the beach fully nude in front of his friends! If that wasn't bad enough when he fell to the ground his legs had somehow managed to bend upward at the knees and his legs spread apart revealing 'everything' in front of his two friends and mentor!
Izuku opened his eyes and slowly sitting himself up he first saw the shocked expression of his friends and mentor, he then looked down and saw his state of undress and his current position. His face went bright red, he covered his crotch, and clapped his knees shut was letting out and embarrassed scream!
Ko and All Might did the most decent thing and averted their eyes while blocking the view of the nude teen with their hands! And then there was Hikari who was looking at Izuku dead on hunched over, mouth open, face flush, with a small and perverted smile on his dropped jaw, and blood dripping down his nose.
Ko immediately saw his more horny friends reaction and screamed at him snaping him out of his staring! "Don't just stand there ya peeping tom! Go get Izuku some clothes!", he yelled at him!
Hikari shook his head clear and said, "Oh right that!", and he was off like lightening the next second!
All Might did the one thing he could and slipped off his oversized shirt and put it over Izuku's body which fell over and covered him like a dress. Izuku stood up and pulled the collar of All Mights shirt up to keep it from falling off of him through the neck hole. With a small and extremely embarrassed tone Izuku thanked All Might. After a moment All Might helped seat Izuku on the scrap metal Ko was previously resting on, and let him simmer down for a time.
Ko on the other hand had so many questions for Izuku and above all was worried for him out of his wits! Though he knew he had to be calm so in the softest and calmest voice he could he asked, "Izuku...are you feeling okay? You're not hurt are you, I mean, you were on fire!"
Izuku rubbed his thighs nervously and replied meekly, "I'm okay, I think. I mean I'm cold, and wet, and warm, and confused, and scared all at the same time. But I think I'm fine."
Suddenly Hikari showed up with a stack of clothes in his hands. "Alright I got Izuku some clothes!", he stated cheerfully.
Ko crossed his arms and raising a skeptical eyebrow asked, "Are they in Izuku's size?"
"Uh."
"And with underwear?"
"...I'll be right back!", and with that Hikari zoomed off yet again.
After a few more quiet and extremely awkward moment of silence All Might Finally asked the big question when he thought Izuku was ready to start speaking again. "Midoriya my boy, what was that? I thought you said you didn't have a quirk. You didn't lie did you?"
Izuku shot his head to his idol and rapidly shook it no! With frightened eyes he exclaimed, "No All Might I swear I didn't lie to you! I don't have a quirk, I mean it, the doctors said so! I'm just as surprised and confused as you are! I don't know-unless…", Izuku trailer off on his rant.
"What?", All Might asked?
"Are you thinking of that story aunty Inko always told us?", Ko inquiries.
"What story?", All Might asks.
"I think so, maybe mom was right after all.", Izuku confirms with Ko, ignoring All Might.
"Young men please! I have no idea what you're talking about! So could you please fill in the gaps for this old man.", All Might exclaimed.
"You're not old All Might.", Izuku told him.
"Yeah, you just look old.", Ko added snarky.
All Might stifled back a cough at Kos follow up comment and clearing his throat inquired, "Anyway, about this story you mentioned."
Before Izuku could speak Ko put up a hand and stated, "Before we do we should wait till The Road Runner comes back and Izuku changes into something more decent."
"When will that be?", All Might asked.
"A little bit longer then this conversation we've been having. We don't want to leave him in the dark.", Ko replies.
"Leave who in the dark?", Hikari asks reappearing to the group not missing a beat.
"See.", Ko reassured him.
After receiving the clothes from Hikari he then asked everyone to turn around while he changed. Everyone obliged excpt for Hikari who glanced sneaky over his shoulder. All Might was actually the one this time to stop him and force his head to face away from Izuku. After Izuku changes quickly into his new clothes the whole group all sat down on the melted and scorched remains of fridge as Izuku explains to All Might the story.
"You see All Might ever since I could remember my mom always told me of this story about me when I was a child. You see when I was a toddler my mom had put me to bed like any other, that is until she found smoke in the house and my room on fire with me in the middle of it. She managed to put out the flames and found me without so much as a single burn mark. The next day she took me to the doctor to check for quirk activity. They told her they couldn't find anything and to come back when I was 4. Time travel a few years later and when I got tested again I was deemed quirkless, and I've thought I was for all this time. Well at least till today, and that's the truth!"
Izuku waited for All Might to answer but the blonde hero simply stayed quite with a hand on his chin in thought. Minutes of silence felt like hours for the green teen as he waited for the hero to say literally anything. Izuku suspected the worst and giving a sad sigh he finally broke the deafening silence.
"All Might I know you're probably trying to find a way to say this, but you don't have to, I get it. Since I haves quirk your not gonna give me yours.", Izuku said in a sad tone.
Ko and Hikari both shoot death glares at the hero which were effective enough to actually scare him! The blonde muscular hero jumped to his feet waving his hands rapidly! "No no no! You've totally got the wrong idea! I have no intention of doing that! I deemed you worthy of my quirk and I meant every word!", All Might exclaimed. "Besides their have been many holders of One for All who had quirks of their own. I was simply thinking of something else."
"What?", Izuku asked tilting his head.
"I was thinking about your natural quirk and One for All. You said that you never have used you're quirk since you were a baby, yes?", Izuku nodded his head. "Well then in addition to molding you're body to handle One for All were also gonna have to train you to use your own quirk."
Izuku nodded his head in agreeance, this was all too true. Not only would he have to work twice as hard for All Might's quirk but now he would have try and control his new found birth quirk. He thought things were gonna he intense before, but now, now things would be even harder for him!
"That's all well and good All Might, but do you know what this means?!", Hikari butted in excitedly!
"Shit just got harder for Izuku?", Ko inquiries.
"No ya golden nob! It means Izuku had quirk the whole time! Izuku was never quirkless he was just a late bloomer!", Hikari exclaimed while throwing his arms up!
Izuku's eye widened with shock at the realization, he was so caught up in the drama that he totally forgot the best part of this moment. He was never quirkless at all...HE WAS NEVER QUIRKLESS! Izuku then let out a joyful scream in which Hikari and Ko soon joined in! Hikari then scooped Izuku into a bear hug and spun him around, with Ko joining them jumping onto Hikari and spiinging with them! The three teen laughed and yelled and sounded off in joyful excitement until Hikari finally lost his balance and fell to the ground! All Might stood on the side watching the three teens giggle as they lay on the sand with a large smile on his face. In spite of how dangerous his job was on any given day, moments like these made it all the more wonderful.
"I cant believe that you were just like me Izuku! We both got our quirks late!", Ko exclaimed with joy!
"And you're fire is green just like my natural color and power! Now we're really twinsys!", Hikari exclaimed with joy!
"I can't believe it either guys! It just seems too...surreal to be true.", Izuku confirmed.
The three teen then helped each other back to their feet and once they were Izuku than said, "You know, now that I have a quirk and will be getting another, we really can be the hero team we wanted to be."
Ko and Hikari just looked between Izuku and one another as if he said something stupid. "What?", Izuku asked a bit nervous at their expressions. The two teens then started to break out into hysterical laughter which put Izuku on edge even more. "What!?", he asked a bit more frimley!
Once the two teens calmed down enough Ko was the first to speak, "Don't be so high strung Izuku." "Yeah otherwise you'll burst into flames.", Hikari added. "Were laughing cause you really think we weren't going to become a team if you never had a quirk."
"Well, I, um….yes?", Izuku replied as more of a question.
Hikari could barely contain his laughter at Izuku's reply and expression so Ko was the one to speak, "Don't you remember the promise that we made with one another when we were kid?", Izuku shook his head no. "We said no matter what the cause or situation, wed become heros and a hero team!"
"Ko-go is right Izukun (Don't call me Ko-go!) powers or no powers, quirk or no quirk. Were going to become the best heroes to every walk the earth!"
"You guys really mean it?"
"Of course we mean it!"
"Every last word!"
Izuku smiled at his friends so brightly they actually had to cover their eyes, then stuck his hand out facing down in front of him. Ko and Hikari knew what this ment and put their hands on Izuku's in their circle.
"We really are gonna be the greatest hero their were."
Ko an Hikari nodded in agreement with their friend. "Look out world cause here we come!", they all shouted in unison while throwing their hands in the air!
All Might laughed heartily at their close knit friendship as it reminded him of his youthful day as a young hero in training, and it reminded him of the people he once knew but hasn't spoken to in a long time! "I'm glad to see youths such as yourselves that are willing to stick with each other through anything, thick and thin! It fills this old heart with great joy!", All Might exclaimed heartedly! Then his tone and attitude changed as he got to more serious subject, "However we have to discuss the major things right now; for one how to intertwin you're quirk training with One for All training, second how to control you new quirk, and thirdly for you to acquire some more suitable training equipment."
Izuku tapped his chin with his finger All Might was right, now that he had two quirks, both of which he would have to train with, things were going to get really serious and so would he!
"I'm sure you're gonna handle the rescheduling of my training regiment right All Might?", All might smiled and gave Izuku a thumbs up. "Though as far as my natural quirk training I really have no idea how to activate it."
"Perhaps it was activated by emotions. Some quirks are activated by that way, so what were you feeling before you burst into flames.", All Might inquired.
"I was feeling really stressed, and frustrated, and angry I guess.", Izuku listed off a few things.
"Anything thing else?"
"I kinda felt like setting someone on fire…..that was a new and scary feeling.", Izuku said with an uneasy tone filled with dread.
All Might sweat dropped and Ko quickly added his two cents saying, "Well we can scratch off 'inciting homicidal pyromaniac tendencies' in you're list of How to Active my Quirk."
"Yeah so that's a no-go.", Hikari agreed.
All Might sighed and rubbing the back of his neck said, "Well just figure that part on a later note. You also have to acquire some proper equipment for you're quirk training."
"Equipment? Like weights and stuff.", Izuku inquired.
"I think he was referring to clothing, as in fireproof clothing. You don't want to be naked every time you activate you're quirk do you?", Ko asked teasingly.
"Oh Please Go For That Option!", Hikari exclaimed while letting some blood drip from his nose. This which earned him a punch in the jaw from Ko and his deadpanned annoyed expression.
Izuku rubbed the back of his neck while sweat dropping at the thought of being nude very time he use his quirk. "Yeah that would definitely be really annoying and embarrassing.", he agreed. Izuku then realized something and with a look of anxiousness exclaimed, "But I can't get my mom to buy me an entire new wardrobe, let alone all fireproof clothing as well! She's barely making ends mead! Guess I'll just have to be naked all the time."
A tack of veins appeared on Kos head knowing full well who would speak next ,and what that someone would say. Without looking at said person Ko growled under his breath and through ground teeth stated angrily, "Hikari-san if you say anything perverted I'm gonna-!", however no a single peep from the fast teen. In fact it was almost off putting how quite he was, especially when it came to things like this. Ko turned his gaze to Hikari who wasn't drooling at the thought of Izuku being nude all the time, but instead on his phone furiously typing something in it. "Hikari-san?"
Hikari placed the phone up to his ear and waited for the other end to pick up. When whoever picked up on the other end did Hikari immediately exclaimed, "Hi Mommy it's me! Can I ask you for a favor?", there was some noise at the other end, stating that Hikaris mother was asking him about said favor. "Izuku needs a new wardrobe, can you buy if for him?", their was more confused sound at the other end. "Well you see he just found out he has a quirk and-.", Hikari didn't get to finish as Hikaru's mother immediately began to make an excited noise at the other end forcing Hikari to pull his head away from the receiver. "Yeah I'm just as excited as you are! The only thing is it's a fire quirk and his body burst into flames when he uses it, so it had to be all fireproof clothing.", there was more noise at the other end. "Yes I'll bring the lucky charm with me, he's actually standing right here.", Hikari started towards Ko.
"Yo.", was all Ko said.
"Okay mommy I love you to.", Hikari made a kissing noise and hung up the phone. "Well Izuku you got yourself a new wardrobe!", Hikari exclaimed happily.
Izuku's jaw was on the floor with this news as he stated back in udder shock, "Hikari-kun this is too nice of you! I can't accept this, Id never be able to pay you back."
Hikari waved his hand dismissively and replied, "Of course you can it's no trouble for us at all! Besides with Ko-go we'll probably get an 80% discount on everything!", Hikari stated as he grabbed Ko under his shoulders like a baby.
"He's right Izuku. And Don't Call Me Ko-go!", Ko shouted at the tall teen and began to flail around!
All Might the came up to Izuku's side and placing a huge hand on his small shoulder her made the young teen look uo at him. "With all this in mind young Midoriya are you sure that you still want to inherent my quirk. I won't hold it against you if you don't, and I'll still gladly train you to use you're natural quirk. It's all up to you.", All Might told Izuku.
"Of course I will All Might! I won't let you down!", Izuku exclaimed with a determined expression and clenched fists!
"I like that sound of that and I'm sure you won't!", All might exclaimed! "Now then, let us get you started on you're training before school starts for you three!", All Might commanded to the three aspiring heros!
"YES SIR!", they all shouted in unison!
