"Young man, you too can become a hero"
Those words.
Those were the words Izuku needed to hear. After fifteen years of people saying he couldn't do it, picking on him for his disability, the man he looked up to most in the entire world told him he could achieve his dream.
"I deem you worthy of my power, my quirk is yours's to inherit"
Stopping the stream of tears Izuku had created, he looked up at the shrunken for of his idol and gave him a questioning looking, which made me smile and turn to my god father. "That's more like the Uncle Might I know" I told him with a smile pointed towards him, though this only confused Izuku more.
"UNCLE MIGHT?!" he yelled, his screechy voice almost destroying my ear drums as I realised my mistake. Taking a nervous looking towards All Might I saw that he had his head in his hand, we both knew I was gonna drop the ball on our secret eventually but I didn't expect him to be there when I did. Turning back to the shocked look of my friend I knew I had to explain everything "yeah, All Might's... kinda my god father" I told him as I rubbed the back of my neck in nervousness. "He told me not to tell anyone... but I guess the cat's out of the bag huh?" I told him, however Izuku suddenly realised what All Might had said.
"Wait, what do you mean inherit? Inherit what?" asked the green haired teen, a dribble of saliva going down his chin and staining his shirt, the remnants of his tears still visible in his eyes. All Might bellowed with laughter as he pointed out the ridiculous look he was wearing, assuring him he wasn't going to do anything he didn't want. "Listen well young man. This is your choice" he began, his index finger raised in the air and swiftly bringing it down to point at Izuku "DO YOU WANT TO ACCEPT MY AWESOME POWER OR NOT?!" he yelled causing blood to spew from his mouth.
As All Might began explaining how One for All worked, I began to remember when I had first learned of his power. It was shortly after I had received the Omnitrix, my mum was furious and had immediately called the person responsible, who I later learned was All Might. He knew how much I wanted to follow in my father's footsteps and All Might had provided me with the way to do that, though I doubt he knew the trouble I would get into while it was in my possession. I later learned that All Might wanted to train me to one day take his place, though this was before he suffered his injury. For about two years All Might trained me, convincing my mother it wasn't going to be her choice forever and that I might as well learn from the best. In that time, I met All Might's best friend, David Shield, who helped me understand the Omnitrix better as he had helped my father create it when they were in school. They'd started off with the basic model, which allowed one transformation every ten minutes and required a recharge time, it also needed a key that All Might kept close so I couldn't access it whenever I wanted, as my father had. This didn't stop me however as my, at the time friend, Melissa Shield, David's Shield's daughter, hack into the Omnitrix and disable the need for a key. When All Might found out, after I got into the fight with Bakugo, he and David told me and Melissa that we shouldn't have done it and that we'd both be punished. Though we didn't care as we had decided to become a couple shortly before that. It was difficult at first with the fact All Might had stopped training me so I couldn't keep going to I-Island, even though we kept up online, though we had found a solution to that problem, Melissa had suggested that I try and find someone . All Might had been disappointed when I told him I wouldn't take One for All from him when he was ready but we moved past that when I agreed to help him find a successor at UA after he received his injury from All for One.
Coming back to the current point in time I was greeted with the sight of Izuku and All Might agreeing on a time and place for training. I smiled at the two as I began walking home, agreeing to meet them both there to help if they needed it. As I was walking down the path I didn't expect to see All Might walking up beside me, "What's wrong Toshi?" I asked, using his real name so none of the other people on the street would get suspicious. "I need to talk to you and your mum" he informed me, though I could clearly tell he was hiding something as he was gripping something in his pocket. Shrugging it off for the moment we began conversing about different, though most notable was when he told me he was impressed by my skill fighting the sludge villain, which reminded me of something, bringing up the Omnitrix I pulled up the different DNA samples and found the most recent ones. This was how I created my transformations, by copying the DNA of quirks and applying them to a form that was better suited to use them, like Big Chill. I'd realised that the human body wouldn't be able to withstand that much cold so I made him with the ability to send it out in the form of freeze breath and a body that could survive being in incredibly cold conditions. The most recent DNA samples were that of the sludge villain, which I had collected when I passed through him during the fight, and Mount Lady when she'd kissed me. I knew they were going to be fun to mess around with.
When I finally reached my home, all I wanted to do was flop down on my bed and sleep the rest of the week off, but the door swinging open put a stop to that plan as the very angry look my mother gave me made my whole body want to shrink in on itself and disappear from existence "Benjamin Maxwell Tennyson, what were you thinking?!" the athletic Asian woman yelled with her hand on her hip. Even though I was taller then her by about two inches, I was still terrified of her, though All Might stepping in gave me false hope that her rage would be quelled. "Julie, it's my fault" he began "if I had been more careful Ben wouldn't have had to step in" he told her. I could tell she was still mad and that there would be punishment, but the sigh she gave as he told her that gave me an immense sense of guilt. After dad had died, mum had done everything in her power to keep me safe and happy and all I'd done was make her more stressed and worried. Walking up the steps I wrapped my arms around her shoulders "I'm sorry mum" was all I could say as I felt her hug me back.
After we parted and moved inside, we finally got to the point of what All Might wanted to talk about. "As you saw, Ben has progressed much further than anyone thought he had" All Might began, a cup of tea resting between his hands, which were situated in his lap. "His precision during the fight was unlike anything I've seen during our training" he told us, making my mum look at me with pride, of all things "that's why I made a recommendation at UA for this coming year" he finished. I was surprised by this news, I had always assumed I was going to have to do the entrance exams, to be told I was getting in with the best of the best purely based on how much further I had progressed since our training ended... It meant a lot to me.
"Which is why..." All Might started again, his hand going back inside his trouser pocket, where he grabbed something and proceeded to place it on the table between us. "... I think he should have this" he finished as he moved his hand away, revealing a small black cylinder, with a metal ring around the top and green lines on the sides. Picking up the Omnitrix core I looked back at All Might with a questioning look on my face, which was mirrored by my mother. Picking up on our looks, All Might began to explain "David and I were working on this during our training" he explained "this one is more advanced than your other one" he started as he listed off the features and improvements "it has a longer transformation time and will allow you to switch between forms while still transformed, though you can only do so once or twice before the battery runs out and you revert back to normal" he finished.
Looking at my mum for confirmation, I could see she was conflicted, she knew I could get into more trouble with this but at the same time she wanted to support me in my choice of career. When she finally gave confirmation I held out the Omnitrix and the core to All Might with a sheepish look on my face "little help?" I asked as I knew what would happen once the original core was removed. Giving me a nod, All Might twisted the Omnitrix's dial a few times before the entire thing popped off. The change was almost instantaneous. I suddenly felt sluggish and weird, I could see my hands turning grey and beginning to fall apart. Trying to concentrate on keeping myself together gave me a migraine and my vision became covered by what used to be my normal human skin.
Rushing to put in the new core, All Might fumbled with it for a second but eventually managed to get it in right and sighed as the usual symbol appeared on the front and my body went back to the way it was. I started taking in massive lungsful of air as it had been hard to breath like that, my migraine subsided and my hands and face were back to the way they were before the removal of the old core.
All of us breathed a sigh of relief as we believed the worst to be over, though that proved not to be the case when the Omnitrix glowed a bright blue colour. Panicking for a second I went to push the dial up, though I stopped when the glowing got brighter and suddenly stopped, but in the old Omnitrix's place sat a green and black design, unlike before which had been black, grey and white with a green button next to the face plate. I pressed the two protruding buttons on the side of the dial and was again surprised to find another change, whereas before the dial popped up and showed a silhouette of the transformation, now it showed a hologram of the transformation, with a couple I didn't recognise in the index. Looking to All Might I saw that he too was surprised by the change in user interface, which meant that it was going to take more getting used to than I thought.
I was about to ask him some questions when there was a loud noise coming from somewhere in the city, rushing to the door I knew All Might would have to leave and, despite wanting to go with him, I had to stay here. Watching the rapidly shrinking shape of All Might's now enlarged body, I wanted more than anything to become like them and with this new Omnitrix I could finally make my own mark on the world of heroes.
A/N: I don't like doing these things but I wanted to apologise. I promised to put this out yesterday and I completely forgot so to make up for that I'm gonna try and get chapter 4 out on Friday (no promises though). I really appreciate all the support I've been getting for this, it really keeps me motivated to keep writing. Now for the warning/heads up. I have been writing some other stories that I'm really enjoying and if I decide to post them this will most likely have to be put on every other week depending on my college work.
IDK how to end these things so... bye.
