"Why are we at Dagobah Municipal Beach Park?" Izuku asked looking around.

"You're cleaning this all up in seven weeks."

"What?"

"You are pretty strong all on your own but One for All is a power storing quirk. Once you take it into your body, the effects will probably be different for you than it was for me since I was quirkless. It is possible it'll enhance your flaming breath or give you super human strength like me."

"Ok... So I clean all this up? That's all I have to do?"

"Don't get cocky young man. You have to clean it all by hand."

"Um... ok."

After a whole forty something minutes, Izuku barely moved the refrigerator that All Might had decided to sit on. His face was red and he was sweating to death. His shirt was soaked already and his shorts were getting the same way. He fell onto the ground ready to give and almost in tears. This isn't how he thought it was going to be.

"What's wrong my boy?!"

"I can't drag this with you on it. Why can't I just burn it all down?" he asked practically whining now.

"My power will destroy you if your body isn't strong enough. Tell me, what are your goals? Why do you want to be a hero?"

Izuku looked at him. His gaze fell towards the sand without saying anything.

"What is it?"

"I wanted to be like Dad. I wanted to be just like you. To help people. I just thought... With my quirk the way it is, I would be ok."

"Well, that is half true. If you want to be a real hero. It takes real work."

Izuku bit his lip.

"Alright."

By the third day, Shouta and Hizashi showed up. They watched as Izuku managed to drag a washer with his bare hands across the sand. He had his shirt on the ground and covered in sand with his shoes. He barely realized they were there.

"Are you planning on working him to death?" Hizashi asked with an unsure smile.

"He wants to be a hero. He's going to do it the right way, not the easy way."

Shouta rolled his eyes.

"I think this is child abuse."

"He's done a lot in the last few days."

"He's already in UA. He can get all the training he needs there."

All Might rolled his eyes.

"His quirk is excellent but he needs a stronger body otherwise his quirk is useless."

The three heroes watched as Izuku threw a few tires into the dumpster. He ran back and gathered more pieces of junk.

Lunch time rolled around and the three of them were sitting a broken down truck trailer. It had taken Izuku ten minutes to get a few feet from his trash pile but he was making great progress. Even Shouta was giving him tips on what to do and how to move things easier. The whole thing was entertaining.

Hizashi did find it a little harsh.

By week three, half of the beach was already cleaned up. The son of Flamethrower was throwing fridges like they were paper balls. Despite the things that had happened to ruin his life, Izuku was pushing forward. He still spent every night writing his hero books and writing in his red journal. It seemed for a short while, he was able to sleep without any problems.

"So, you want a break?"

Izuku looked up to see Shouta staring down at him.

"Oh... Is it lunch time?"

"Actually, three in the afternoon. You missed lunch."

The boy groaned and sighed.

"Damn it."

"Watch your mouth."

"S-sorry."

"Trust me, you're not as bad as one of the kids in my class. I got you a ice cream slush. It's cherry vanilla."

"All Might said-

"It's made with almond milk."

Izuku smiled and sat up.

"Thank you."

Eraserhead took a spot beside of him in the cool sand as the waves hit the beach.

"You sure you want to attend UA?"

The boy nodded quickly.

"I wanted to go there before but Dad said it wasn't safe. All Might said it would be ok since he would be there."

"Hizashi and I will be too as well as the other teachers. There won't be much to worry about."

"Thank you... for everything. I didn't mean to offend you with my notebooks or anything..."

Aizawa sighed.

"I have to say it was a surprise more than anything. I barely am heard about and you had so much information on me. Hizashi was impressed and quite flattered."

Izuku smiled shyly.

"What are you doing Izuku?"

He jumped and turned with a guilty look on his face.

"Oh no."

"The two of you can run for three miles."

Izuku nodded quickly as he got up. He started running.

"You're kidding me."

"I don't kid."

Eraserhead sighed. He got up and started jogging trying to catch up to his newest student.

Jackass.

Three weeks left until he would go start his first day of UA. He laid down on the couch trying to watch TV.

I'm so close to cleaning that beach. I need to get there.

It wasn't long until he dozed off. All Might smiled and moved the boy to his room to let him get some sleep.

"Toshi!" Izuku yelled.

The skinny man went running from the panic in the young boy's voice.

"What's wrong Izuku?!"

"There's a momma kitty and her babies! They're all wet!"

He reached in to pet the mommy kitty. She looked a little uneasy at first but let him pet her anyways.

"What are we going to do? I can't keep cleaning and if I do... I might scare her. Can we take her home?"

"Hold on. I don't have the stuff for her but I know someone who loves cats."

"You sure? They'll be able to care for her and the babies?"

"Yes! Besides we are here and too busy to watch them."

Izuku looked visibly upset but nodded.

"Let me call and see what I can do."

It took a hell of a lot of his concentration to do it but he managed to just blow heat into the little trash area without producing fire or smoke. The momma kitty seemed to love it very much and started purring. All Might didn't say anything to Izuku as he just watched out of curiousity. The young man was truly something else.

It wasn't very long when Aizawa appeared with his boyfriend. For once he had a smile on his face while Mic looked like he didn't want to be there.

"Can you care for her and her babies?"

"Of course. I love cats."

Izuku leaned back and stared at him. That was surprising since he looked like he didnt like anything but sleep. Eraserhead reached out and ruffled up Izuku's already messy hair before reaching in for the mommy cat and her kittens. Even with the displeased look on Hizashi's face, he helped Aizawa out. They loaded the large cat carrier into their vehicle and they were gone.

"You've progressed farther than I thought."

Izuku forced a guilty smile.

"I've been coming here without you... That's why."

All Might looked surprised.

"Pushing yourself isn't good-

"I know but... It's been helping me so I don't think so much. I've been timing myself and such... I've gotten a lot faster. I've able to practice with my quirk some. I've been able to use my fire longer instead of it sputtering out from the lack of lung power. I was unsure how this would help me and it's done a lot!"

"Ah. Did you not train some with your old man?"

Izuku scratched his head.

"Well... We didn't do much together with him always gone. They really needed his help overseas and everything. I train on my own but Mom always needed help. Between school and home... There wasn't much time for anything."

"UA has some powerful students. You think you can make it?"

"I have too! Because I'm on my own now and I have to be able to defend myself. I want to be a better hero than Dad. Than you too. I always want help those who need it."

Toshinori smirked and ruffled up his hair just like Aizawa did.

"You aren't alone."

The smile faded from Izuku's face quickly.

"I don't want any other kids to end up like me."

The hero's smile softened.

"Don't worry. We can both work together on that."

"Do you really think I can do it?"

"Of course I do."

All Might reached up and pulled out a long hair.

"Eat this."

"Come again?!" he squeaked, looking disgusted.

"I promise I'm not messing with you!"

Izuku took the hair.

"With One for All, you can achieve your dreams. Even in the long run you defend yourself."

Izuku bit his lip.

"You're already stronger than your old man. I can understand if you don't want it but you've been held back by the threat of villains and other reasons. Now, you have the chance to shine and take steps forward. You have one year of school left so everything you do, matters more than anything else. Are you up for the challenge and to prove to others that you're here?"

He took the hair and swallowed it.

"It'll take sometime to kick in but we can start training you on that tomorrow. I actually asked for Aizawa and Mic to help out."

"Really? They wanna help me?"

"Mic can help you with your quirk since both of yours is somewhat similar. Aizawa can help you with stealth. You're going to need it. I can help you with your physical training."

"I have two weeks left..."

"That's right. Get ready young Izuku, it won't be easy."

"You doing ok?" Present Mic asked.

Izuku nodded. He felt numb. They were on their way to the UA training grounds. Nezu had given them permission but Izuku had yet to meet the principal. He looked around nervously expecting to see other students but there wasn't any.

"Why did you bring me here for?"

"Because our quirks are quite damaging. You don't wanna catch things on fire do you?"

Izuku blinked for a second.

"No."

"Besides, the sand would turn to glass."

Izuku looked thoughtful for a second.

"That would be cool though... I should try making things sometime."

Hizashi smiled, "Make a cat for Shouta, he would love that."

Izuku laughed and nodded in agreement.

"Cementoss is here too. We can take turns destroying rock before we try anything harder than that like creating a special power move."

"Alright. I had tried that last year but I didn't get very far. It seems me closing my lips together to aim was the best thing they could help me with."

Present Mic blinked, "That... sucks. But don't worry! We have five days to do this and then you have two days with All Might again. Then five days with Shouta. You're going to love it!"

"You... you don't think this is cheating?" he asked, "I feel like I'm cheating..."

Mic looked at him funny before sighing.

"You weren't brought up to your potential at that school. Think of this as summer school to catch up. Besides, you need someone with a similar quirk."

"Hello!"

Izuku looked ahead to see the cement looking man. Of course he already knew who he was and started waving excitedly.

"It's so great to finally meet you!"

"Likewise, Midoriya. Are you ready to give it your all?"

"Yes!"

Hizashi ended up going first. He screamed his first 'YEA', shattering the rock instantly. Izuku watched as he did it a few more times in different tones shattering the rock into different size pieces each time. Izuku had brought his notebook on Present Mic with him taking notes furiously.

"Are you ready?"

Izuku nodded jumping up and almost stumbling forward. Cement rocks shot up into the air. He pulled out some chapstick and rubbed it around his face furiously.

"Which do you want me to do first?" he asked, green eyes shining brightly.

"Do full force and go smaller each time. If you need a moment for water or something, let me know."

Izuku gave a thumbs up and let it out. The rock turned into molten lava. The next round, Izuku closed his mouth halfway. The giant rock cracked and fell into liquid chunks. Mic gave a nod of approval. Izuku licked his lips nervously.

I hope this works. Sometimes it's hard to control. It's so much power concentrated at a single point and now I have One for All. The other day I went to burp and I burned down the curtains in the kitchen.

"Can you put up ten layers for me? Just in case?"

Cementoss looked at Hizashi who nodded in agreement.

"Are you expecting to lose control?"

Izuku nodded slightly.

"Alright, let's see."

Izuku let it out, throwing out melted rock in many different directions before it started spreading, catching everything one fire around him. Present Mic looked shocked as Izuku snapped his mouth shut almost burning his lips. Cementoss grabbed a large water hose and started putting out the fire around them.

"I noticed it looked more orange instead of the yellow flame you normally use."

Izuku grabbed a bottle of water and chugged it.

"It goes from yellow to orange to red to blue. Blue is the hottest."

The man looked thoughtful for a minute.

"The hotter it is, the harder it is to control?"

"I can use it, but it's usually when I panic, it gets blue. Dad said never to use it unless it was against robots or my life was in danger."

"Well, he was wrong and right... so now you have to do it because when the time comes, you may have to use it to safe someone."

Izuku nodded.

"You ready again?"

He nodded.

"Don't hold back. Let it all out that way you get the feel for where you stop it and then we'll go from there."

AmbertheCat: lol

Garnet168: Thank you : )
