The scene on the street was a nightmare, a villain had captured an innocent boy and there were no heroes around who had the power to help. People were starting to panic, questioning where All Might, who had captured the villain not an hour before, was. These questions did reach his ears as he leant against a lamp post in his shrunken state, helplessly watching as the blonde boy was struggling not to be suffocated or have his neck snapped.
On the side of the crowd was a green haired teenager, Izuku Midoriya, who was currently blaming himself for the current situation as he had caused All Might to drop the plastic bottles that had held the villain, not realising All Might was also blaming himself for losing the plastic bottles.
All hope seemed lost as heroes and civilians alike were watching helplessly, when everyone heard something they never thought they would hear again. The voice of a dead man come back to life.
"IT'S HERO TIME"
A burst of green light erupted from the rooftop and there stood a humanoid being with blue skin with a moth like face and wings, long thin arms and legs protruded from the beings torso, with three digits at the end of each limb. The wings were standing at their full height as the creature stretched it's body and let out a cry that the more nostalgic among the crowd cheered at. "BIG CHILL" was what the crowd heard as the moth like creature leapt down and landed in front of the villain, his wings wrapping around his body and one coming over his head like a hood. "And who the hell are you supposed to be?" came the gurgled voice that was coming from the mouth floating on the surface of the sludge. "Don't you know?" came the light voice of the hero as he took flight once again and phased right through the villain, freezing him in place but leaving Bakugo, the teenage boy who had been taken prisoner, untouched. As the villain was no longer a liquid, Bakugo was finally able to try and free himself, realising this the villain made a tentacle from an unfrozen part of his body and slammed it over the ice, which broke it and held Bakugo in place.
Flying out of the way as the sludge villain took a swipe at him, Big Chill was blowing cold air at him in an attempt to freeze him long enough to get his hostage out of the way. However before he could even try to make another pass a backpack was flung at the villain and a fallen notebook came and stabbed him in the eye. Looking at the assailant the blue humanoid's eyes were raised, Izuku had jumped through the crowd and was currently trying to free his classmate from the sludge. Realising this the villain raised a tentacle in an attempt to smack Izuku away, but before it got close enough it had been turned to ice and fell to the ground in broken pieces. The culprit of this landed next to his best friend and began freezing the sludge holding Bakugo in place, being espeically careful not to hurt the blonde even as he yelled insults at the two.
Finally getting him free, Izuku and Big Chill yanked their classmate from his slimy confines and back onto his feet, however an angry yell caught their attention as the villain had made another tentacle and was about to smash them into the wall when something blocked the strike. "I really am pathetic" came the voice of our saviour "ALl Might... but..." Izuku stammered out as he knelt on the ground. "I told you the traits that make a great champion" All Might began as he tore his arm from the villain's grasp "but I see now I wasn't living up to my own ideals". Seeing what was about to happen I grabbed my classmates and took off away from the ensuing fight.
"PROS ARE ALWAYS RISKING THEIR LIVES, THAT'S THE TRUE TEST OF A HERO" came his cry, blood spewing from his mouth as he raised his fist and yelled his attack, even as the villain went to attack him.
"DETROIT SMASH"
As his fist connected with the liquid, the force behind it created a torrent of wind that forced the villain apart and spread him all over the ground. Mount Lady had knelt down and used her arms to protect the innocent people on the other side from the wind that had been forced towards the, which redirected it towards the sky and made the clouds part above us.
Standing in silence for several moments, mouths agape at the incredible display of strength, a smile spread across my face. Despite how angry I was at him, it still pleased me to know he cared more about others than he did about himself. It was why I looked up at him.
As the clouds began to gather back together above us we began to notice something... it was raining. All Might had forced the weather to change with one punch. That was the moment I knew... I had to beat him. I wanted to be a pro, I wanted to be as good as my dad and the only way I would ever truly know was if I beat the number one hero.
Joining in on the applause I suddenly realised some people were cheering for me too, which was nice, but the sudden beeping and flashing red light coming from my chest alerted me to the fact I was out of time. I was about to go back to the roof when someone grabbed my wings and forced me back to the ground as I transformed back. Everyone stopped clapping and stared at me, several of them started muttering about how I was a kid, I think they'd assumed I was my dad.
After me and Izuku got yelled at/lectured by Death Arms and Kamui Woods for jumping in and nearly getting ourselves killed, while Bakugon got complimented on his skill, we began walking away, however we were stopped by a voice calling my name. I turned back to see Mount Lady running towards us, her arm waving through the air. "I just wanted to say what you did was really brave, despite what the others say" she told me as she wrapped both her hands around mine, causing my cheeks to change a few shades of red. "I knew I could do something, so I did. That's what a hero does after all" I told her, hand rubbing the back of my neck as my eyes were aimed anywhere other than her. "Well, hope to see you around someday hero" she said before surprising both me and my friend by kissing me on the cheek, giving me a cute smile and walking off to enjoy her praise. "I should have asked her out" I muttered, berating myself as I rejoined myself who was still very confused as he looked at me. "Wait, don't you already have a girlfriend?" Izuku asked, referring to the blonde girl who was in the photo with me on my wallpaper. I chuckled to myself "I'll explain when you're older" I told him as I patted his shoulder.
I touched the spot Mount Lady'd kissed me with my fingertips with a very happy expression on my face, before smiling and continuing on my way home. Izuku started talking about Big Chill and asking about his powers and what he could do, with me more than happy to answer the entire length of the journey. As we were nearing Izuku's house a very angry sounding voice yelled at us. Knowing who it was I turned around ready for a fight, but Bakugo stopped several feet away from us and started yelling about how he would never ask for help from weaklings like us. With a very annoyed grunt and a remark about how he didn't owe us anything, Bakugo turned around and started walking in the direction he had just came from. Looking to my friend with a questioning look I just shrugged and continued on my way.
I was about to turn the corner to my home and start going on my own way when a blur wearing a white shirt and green trousers appeared in front of us, a loud "I am here" coming from it's mouth. Jumping back in surprise me and Izuku were shocked to see All Might appear right in front of us. "Whoa All Might, why're you here!" Izuku asked, taking a second to look around him to check and see if the press were still around "how'd you get rid of all those reporters?" he finished as All Might let out a bellowing laugh. "I stand for justice, not sound bytes" he said as he began flexing his muscles "Because I, I am All Mi-" he started, but his body had other ideas as blood began spewing from his mouth and he reverted back to his smaller form.
Wiping the blood from his mouth he began explainng why he had intercepted us on our journey "Young man, I came here to thank you and also to discuss your question from earlier" he stated "if you hadn't told me about your life, if neither of you had run into that fight, I would have been a worthless bystander watching from the crowd, so thanks" he said, the second part directed at me which caught me by surprise. "Oh no, it was my fault he was there to begin with" Izuku cried out, which caught me by surprise "I got in the way of your hard work." Izuku began as his eyes turned down to the pavement "I wasted your energy, not to mention your time" he finished, his expression became more and more depressed. "I'm not done" All Might told him, halting him from blaming himself further "you told me you didn't have a power, so when I saw this timid quirkless boy try to save a life, it inspired me to act too" he informed Izuku, which seemed to raise the young boy's spirits. "There are stories about every hero, how they became great. Most had one thing in common" he began as we remembered what happened, Izuku had ran into the fight to save Bakugo without thinking and I had immediately gone for the Omnitrix to stop the villain from hurting him or anyone else, damn the consequences "their bodies moved before they had a chance to think, almost on their own, and today that's what happened to you" he finished.
I looked between my best friend and my god father as tears welled up in his eyes, I knew what was coming next and I couldn't help but feel extremely happy for my friend.
"Young man, you too can become a hero".
