The following is an idea owned by @ArtKyle10 on Wattpad and I have been given express permission to write this.
There comes a time in everyone's life when one must ask what could've happened different if they'd been there. If they were there to intercept and be there, would things be different? Would it change anything?
In the prime universe, Izuku Midoriya was given an opportunity to join the Hero Course at U.A High with the help of the Number One Hero, All Might and his quirk.
But here, Izuku is still quirkless and never joined U.A. Instead, he decided to take classes online to continue his education.
That was... Until the news came out.
"Breaking news, The Unforseen Simulation Joint over at U.A High has been the sight for a surprise villain attack. No details have been released except for the names of the four students that were tragically killed in the attack. Tenya Iida, Eijiro Kirishima, Minoru Mineta, and Momo Yaoyorozu. Our condolences go out to the families of those who have perished. This marks the second incident revolving students involved at U.A as just a month ago, Ochaco Uraraka was tragically killed in the Entrance Exam. Is the beginning of U.A's fall from grace? We'll have more information as this story progresses."
All throughout Japan, everyone prayed for the parents' grief. It was devastating and U.A came under fire for this.
This... This was Izuku's moment of questioning. This was when he sat down, having just watched the news, and went through it all in his head. Until...
'I could've saved them... If only I wasn't so weak. If only I had a quirk! If only I could-' His thought process stopped as his eyes widen.
There it was. The moment of clarity. It seemed like such a ridiculous idea, but it seemed to be the best possible way.
'I could bring them back... I could- I could bring them back! I could bring them back as mechs!'
Midoriya, having thought it out further, realized he'll need a lot of resources. He applied for a part time job to help as he looked for a good source of material.
And so, Midoriya got to work. Using the junk from Dagobah beach and cleaning them as best as he could, he set to rebuild them. But he was missing one crucial element. Their consciousness to power the machines.
The only way this would work... Was to steal their brains and implant them into their mechanical bodies. This would be the most difficult choice he'd ever have to make.
It was time to go grave robbing.
It was dead of night during a storm that we find Izuku Midoriya digging up the grave of Eijiro Kirishima. It wasn't difficult to find the cemeteries that held the students' graves. The most difficult ones would have to be Yaoyorozu's and Iida's as they were buried in privately owned cemetery from their parents. But this would not phase Midoriya. He was determined to bring them back. To let their dream live on.
Midoriya dug and dug before hitting the wood of the coffin. He tossed the shovel out before opening it to reveal the peaceful look on Kirishima's cold and pale face. He got out and grabbed the necessary equipment. Surgical tools and needles needed for the blood. He muttered "God forgive me."
Removing Kirishima's brain and injecting the needles into his body to pull out the blood, he encased them in a suitcase before stapling his scalp back on. He closed the casket and got out of the hole and began to fill the dirt back in.
Throughout the week, Midoriya dug out the graves of the fallen students one by one. That was until he had them all. Now it was time for the magic to start.
"This is Izuku Midoriya. The date is March 19th, 2249."
We could see a video tape of Izuku Midoriya, wearing a white coat with glasses as he looked at the camera.
"This is test number twenty-five in the reanimation of U.A students Ochaco Uraraka, Minoru Mineta, Tenya Iida, Eijiro Kirishima, and Momo Yaoyorozu."
He moved out the way to reveal the five robotic bodies laying against tables. Their bodies were exact replicas of their costumes.
"I want this stated once more that I do this not in the name of science, but in the name of the students whose lives were taken too soon. When this works, it will change the world."
"Thanks to some digging, I was able to acquire their quirk registrations, and after twenty-two tests, I was able to recreate their quirks using their DNA laced into the metal. Their brains have been implanted into the exoskeletons, all that is required is some electricity to help jumpstart the brain."
"This is the third test in terms of reactivating their brains and I have triple checked all of their parts to make sure everything was in the proper order and nothing was out of alignment. I have also triple checked the power outage needed to activate them, clocking in at 15 gigajoules per watt. I believe we are ready to to give this another go."
Midoriya walked to a laptop and began tapping into the keyboard. "Commencing activation in Three... Two... One!"
A single tap of the laptop before the power was suddenly turned off and the camera was shut off.

Welcome back Momo Yaoyorozu
A pink screen fizzled to life, signalling the light in her eyes turning on.
"What is this..." Yaoyorozu asked. Her voice still held the smooth and soft tone in her voice, but now digitized.
She turned her head before looking down at her arm to see the smooth metal that encompassed her skin.
"What..." She asked once again before hearing a person crying.
She turned her head to see Izuku Midoriya looked at them with tears dripping down his cheeks with his hands over his mouth.
"I DID IT! I DID IT!"
Momo looked down at her body before back at Midoriya. "What... What happened to me?"
"Hey, you're ok." Midoriya walked closer to her and placed his hand over hers. "You're alive, Miss Yaoyorozu."
"What do you me-"
"Woah... What the hell?" A new voice spoke from the right of Yaoyorozu.
It was Kirishima, closing and opening his fists.
"WAH! BOOBS!" Mineta shouted in surprise.
"What the..." Iida said as he looked at his arms as well.
"Hey hey hey! Calm down you guys! You're all ok!" Midoriya said with his hands raised to try and calm everyone down.
Uraraka groaned as she placed a hand to her head in a futile attempt to nurse a non existent headache. She looked at her arm before looking at her body. "What the hell?"
"Where's my dick!?" Mineta shouted.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO US!?" The robotic students shouted in unison.
"Woah woah! It's ok! I can explain everything!" Midoriya said in an attempt.
Iida looked at the others then at himself. "Are we... Are we robots!?"
"Yes, you're robots." Midoriya said.
"Wha... How did this happen?" Yaoyorozu asked, looking at her body and arms some more.
"Ok what is the last thing you all remember?" Izuku asked.
"I was... AT THE USJ!!" The four students shouted in unison once more. While Uraraka shouted. "The Entrance Exam!"
Midoriya looked at them all in sympathy before taking a deep breath. "Ok, so... Yes, you all were killed in a terrible event involving U.A. You all technically are dead, but I managed to bring you all back!"
"You... Brought us back?" Uraraka asked in confusion.
"As robots? That's kinda manly!" Kirishima said.
"Why don't I have a penis!?" Mineta exclaimed once more.
"Mineta! Now is not the time for that kind of question!!" Iida shouted while waving his arm up and down.
"How did you manage to bring us back?" Yaoyorozu asked.
Midoriya looked embarrassed as he replied. "Well... I took out your brains and large samples of your blood."
They looked at him before shouting once more, "YOU DEFILED OUR CORPSES!?"
"IT WAS THE ONLY WAY I COULD BRING YOU ALL BACK!!" Midoriya defended himself while waving his arms in alarm.
After a couple minutes of silence, just so the students could collect themselves, Kirishima asked, "Why did you bring us back to life? Planning to take over the world?"
"What!? No! I would never do that!" Midoriya exclaimed.
"You didn't answer his first question, and quite frankly I think we deserve an explanation." Iida said with his usual hand chopping arm.
Midoriya calmed down and sighed as he answered. "When the news came on about your deaths, I felt... Guilty."
"Guilty? How could you possibly be guilty for our deaths?" Uraraka asked.
"You see... I'm Quirkless." This surprised everyone but Midoriya continued, "All I've ever wanted was to be a hero, but I couldn't. Not without a quirk. So when I saw the news, I kept thinking about what could've happened if I'd been there. Then it hit me. I could still save you all, so I used scrap metal from Dagobah beach, as well as buying a whole bunch of hardware, I got to work. I did this because... Well even if I can't live out my dream as a hero, you all were so close to living it out, until it was taken from you. I couldn't let it end for you all like that."
"You... Used random pieces of scrap from that dump beach... To bring us back?" Yaoyorozu asked slowly, as if to process it all.
"You... You have to be the single most smartest person I've ever met!" Uraraka said.
"You're super manly for doing this for a bunch of people you don't even know!" Kirishima exclaimed with a clench of his fist.
"While your methods of bringing us back are... Unorthodox, I'm grateful for you bringing us back." Yaoyorozu said in appreciation.
"Well... At least I'm still alive, even if I look extremely different and don't have a penis anymore. Thanks, man." Mineta said, looking up at him.
"You brought us back so we could continue where we left off. We're not heroes right now... No. That honor goes to you, Midoriya. You're the hero today, and you have the potential to become the hero you dreamed of becoming." Iida said as he looked at him, if only he had lips, he would've smiled at the green haired student.
Midoriya looked at them in surprise before tears began to fall from his cheeks as he smiled at them. "Thank you... All of you."
This was the start for Midoriya, and a reset for the five students. From this day forward, Midoriya would become the greatest hero, and they would be beside him as the Mecha Heroes.
"Now... How do we walk again?" Mineta asked.
AN: Wow! Another story!? After so many haven't been finished yet? You're damn right! Now what did you all think? Are you hoping for more? I will say sorry for the forced intro, but I'm not really one for a slow burn story. Also I'm not good at science so try to suspend your disbelief at this. I hope you all enjoyed.
