Chapter 4: The Fateful meeting.

After serious talk with Shoto, Izuku went to the medical examination room to be accepted. Before examination could start a nurse enters the room and whispers something inaudible to doctor.

"Wait here", ordered doctor.

"Is there a problem?" asked alarmed Izuku.

"Just wait here", said doctor before he walks out.

Izuku stayed alone in bewilderment and couldn't understand what's wrong; why doctor just tell him to wait here; what a nurse whispered to doctor. Before he sees a sign, "It is illegal to falsify your enlistment form". Midoriya finally understood what's wrong; they learnt that his form's data are fake and they gonna arrest him. In panic Izuku starts to pack his things and run away from here. Before he could escape an enlistment office MP walks in the room and Izuku looks up at him scaredly. That's it. That's his final moment. They are gonna arrest and lock him up in the prison. He is never gonna see his friends. But the worst thing is that he would never be accepted by the army because of his criminal record.

Fortunately, before he could faint, Dr. Abraham Erskine enters the room as enlistment office MP quietly leaves. Seeing office MP leaving makes Izuku sighs in relief. They are not gonna arrest him. However, it gives him new questions: Who is this man? And why he need him?

"So, you want to go overseas. Kill some Nazis. Glorify yourself", unexpectedly asked Dr. Erskine.

"Eh?" asked dumbly Izuku.

"Oh, where are my manners? The name is Dr. Abraham Erskine. I represent the Strategic Scientific Reserve or SSR for short" introduced himself Dr. Abraham.

"I-izuku M-midoriya", stuttered teen nervously. His breath is caught in his throat when Erskine was looking through his files. Nevertheless, he wasn't afraid about it. For some reasons he had a feeling that he can trust this person, because Abraham have an unusual positive and kind aura around him. That's why he decide to ask him a question, "Where are you from?"

"Queens. 73rd Street and Utopia Parkway. Before that, Germany. This troubles you?" answered Abraham not seeing anything wrong with that.

"N-not at all", quickly answered Izuku not wanting to offend the kind doctor.

"Where are you from, Mr. Rogers? Mmm? Is it New Haven? Or Paramus? Five exams in five different cities. Also by your looks I think that you are not from America at all or have the right age to serve in army", deduced Erskine.

"T-t-that might not be the right file", alarmed Midoriya. If they really gonna arrest him? He can't endure this suspense any longer.

"He he. Don't worry, it's not the exams I'm interested in. It's the five tries", said Dr. Erskine calming poor kid's heart down. "But you didn't answer my question. Do you want to kill Nazis?"

"Is this a test?" asked Izuku expecting a dirty trick.

"Yes", said Erskine honestly. This one word is enough to destroy Izuku's doubt.

"I don't wanna kill anyone. I don't like bullies. I don't care where they're from", answered Midoriya. "It's started when I was a little, well littler. However, I don't think that my story would be interesting enough to listen".

"Why are you so sure about it? Try me. Maybe I would find it interesting?" challenged Abraham to Izuku.

"Just like you deduced you are right I wasn't born in America", started to tale his history Izuku. "I was born in Japan but because of my dad's work my family decided to immigrant to the America before my father's death. I was little, weak and didn't know the language that's why I hadn't have friends. When I was four I was attacked by bullies but was saved by my future best friend, his family actually emigrate from Japan too. However, he was overpowered when they grouped up on him, held him down, and poured hot water from a pipe leaking scathing hot water from nearby on his face. That earned him a burn scar on his face. After this I was dreaming to become a heroic soldier who protects weak and innocent from bullies with a smile on his face."

After his story, ended Izuku was expecting a doctor to critic about his childish dream like everybody else. But his story made completely different outcome on Erskine than Midoriya expected. Abraham is pleased with young one's answer. If he had any doubts about his choice of person before, than they are destroyed because this one is the perfect candidate. Much better than him.

"You know your dream is pretty much is …" began Dr. Erskine.

"Childish, naive and foolish", interrupted Izuku already knowing the answer. He heard it hundreds of times.

"Yes it is. But the word I was looking for is heroic", said Abraham. At his words, Midoriya comes in a stupor. Nobody said anything good about his dream ever. He hadn't noticed that his eyes starts to fill with tears. "Well, there are already so many big men fighting this war. Maybe what we need now is the little guy, huh? I can offer you a chance."

Izuku couldn't believe his ears this man first claimed that he didn't care about his conditions and fake files, second he listened his life story and his dream and didn't laugh at it, and finally he gives him a chance to become a soldier, to finally achieve his dream. He mentally tweaked himself to make sure that he is not sleeping. He is not.

"Only a chance", Dr. Abraham continued exiting the room with Midoriya.

"I'll take it", quickly said Izuku. "It's much more than anybody else ever give to me."

"Good. So where is the little guy from, actually?" smiled Erskine at Izuku's enthusiasm. "And how old are you?"

"Brooklyn. And I am 17 years old", answered Izuku.

"Congratulates Izuku Midoriya", said Abraham stamping Izuku's form and hands him back his file. Izuku opens up the file and sees that he's been stamped as accepted. It's means that he is finally would become a soldier. "You can be a soldier!"

At his words finally breaks down and crying his eyes out. Later he surprise doctor and himself by wrapping his hands around doctor and hugging him saying 'thank you' over and over repeatedly. He just couldn't believe his happiness. Fortunately Erskine hadn't seem to mind it he is actually smiling and hugging him back and saying comforting words to calm him down.

Both of them knew at least one thing for sure: tomorrow will be a start of something new.
