Chapter 2: Clear Thoughts
Izuku was in his dorm drawing up some ideas on his hero costume. As he was thinking, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in," Izuku said.
The door opened revealing Ochako. She jumped onto the All Might themed bed, landing next to her super strong boyfriend.
"Well, have you come up with an ultimate move yet?" Ochako asked.
"Not yet, how about you?"
"Well I'm working on flying while carrying weightless items," Ochako told him with a smile.
"That sounds awesome! I'm looking forward to seeing it!" Izuku said.
Ochako smiled.
"You're the one who gave me the idea, using both float and blackwhip," she told him, "Deku I swear, sometimes you're more amazing than you realize."
Izuku blushed a bit after hearing that.
"Hahaha, I'm not that good, I still got ways to go," Izuku said.
"Let's see," Ochako said, "You punched a giant robot with one punch, saved your entire class from a powerful monster, and before doing all that, you stopped a villain when you were just 11. And without a quirk no less."
She approached the broccoli boy and kissed his lips.
"And above all, you won my heart."
"And apparently I cracked your back in the sports festival," Izuku said.
"Yea that really helped a lot," Ochako said, "Is there anything you won't do to help people? Next I suppose you'll become a legal guardian of a little girl after saving her from a mad scientist."
"There is something I've been wondering though," Ochako told him, "How come you seem like you're still trying to copy All Might?"
"What do you mean?" Izuku asked.
"Well I understand your power came from him, but the one difference between you and All Might is that you two are completely different people."
Izuku thought to himself and started muttering.
"Hmmm maybe I'm overthinking it," Ochako said, "I mean you're the one using it, not me."
"But that doesn't mean I can't get input from others," Izuku said looking to an All Might poster.
He then thought about his visit to Hatsume with Iida. She told him if his legs got tired than he should run with his arms. That visit replayed in his mind hundreds of times.
"Deku?" Ochako asked.
"I think I got an idea," he said.
"Really, what is it?" Ochako asked her boyfriend.
"I think its better to leave it as a surprise," Izuku said with a smile.
The next few days had passed. In addition to working on this new technique, Izuku also went to the development area for a redesign on his costume. He also asked for a few new support items. Izuku was putting together some sketches for costume ideas.
"A new Item?" someone asked.
Izuku turned around to see Toshinori walking around during his free period.
"Yea, its something I'm asking for in order to help with my new moves," Izuku said, "I've been thinking about what you said and you're right. But I can't quite tell you what I'm planning yet."
"Believe it or not, I actually used something like that in the past," Toshinori said.
"Whoa, you used a support item?" Izuku asked.
"Well, it was kinda bulky and hard to move in, despite the fact that it was made to support up to 30% of my power," Toshinori admitted, "For long distance attacks it would've been fine but since I was more of a mid ranged to short ranged brawler I ended up breaking it."
He then puffed up to his muscle form.
"And so I did away with the tech and continued my duties of herowork with nothing but my own strapping body!" he said.
"I see," Izuku said with a smile.
"Support item are helpful but don't rely on them too much," Toshinori said with a smile.
People were still working on ultimate moves.
"I see the students are coming along well," All Might said.
"Yes," Aizawa said deadpanned.
A few students had some ultimate ideas already. Tokoyami came up with the idea to cloak himself using Dark Shadow. He called it Abyssal Black Body. Meanwhike Katsuki had a move where he focused a blast from the center of his arm. He tried the technique and fired multiple bullet like shots.
"Ap Shot: Auto Cannon!"
"Young Bakugo is ruthless as ever with names as usual," All Might said.
He failed to notice a piece of debris falling down.
"Hey watch out!" Katsuki said.
All Might chuckled.
"Nothing I can't handle," All Might said, getting ready to throw a punch, "Detroit..."
Before he could do it, a flash of green lightning dashed above him.
"SMASH!"
It was Izuku. He dashed up and kicked the rock into tiny bite sized pieces! All Might looked at the boy and smirked.
"My boy, you finally done it!"
Izuku landed on the ground, sporting a new and improved costume dubbed Gamma. It came equipped with Arm Bracers, with the Full Gauntlet on his right arm, and also reinvented Iron Soles to help with his kicking, and withstand 70% of his full power. He also had some newly developed air force gloves for his ranged attacks, which also had some holes to control his black whip quirk.
"This whole time I've been thinking I had to use my arms like All Might does, and copy the way he uses the quirk, but that's where I went wrong," Izuku said, "If my arms get tired then I'll just use my legs. This is my ultimate move, One For All Full Cowl: Shoot Style!"
Everyone approached Izuku, amazed by his new skills.
"Dude, that was so manly!" Kirishima said.
"Yea, I got some upgraded Iron Soles to help with my shoot style, plus some spikes for my arms," Izuku said, "These should help cushion the blows when I do hard punch attacks."
"Pretty sweet," Kirishima said.
"You're not the only one with upgrades," Kaminari said showing off his new duds, "These support items help me with the flow of my lightning attacks. Meanwhile Jiro has-"
"I told you to call me Kyoka," Jiro said with a playful smirk, "We've been going out since the first book."
"Right… Kyoka has some duds to plug her earphone jacks in," Kaminari said.
Later after class, Izuku was in his room, talking to his mother on the computer.
"And then it hit me, if I'm worried about my arms, then why not attack with my legs!' Izuku said, "I asked my classmate Iida to teach me how to kick, and then came up with my ultimate move, Shoot Style. You should've seen it Mom!"
"Well looks like you're getting a handle on your quirk," Inko said with a smile.
"How are things with you and Grandma?" Izuku asked
"Pretty quiet without you around," Inko said, "But that's ok."
Well Izuku, I'm proud of you, you're finally learning how to make One For All your own quirk. In addition to having access to the other quirks in hand, you'll definitely be a force to be reckoned with!" Nana said.
"Thanks Grandma," Izuku said, "Wait, make One For All my own quirk? But didn't All Might get the strength thing from you?"
Nana laughed at this statement
"No," Nana said, "We all used One For All differently when we received it. I used the quirk to enhance my flying."
"I see," Izuku said.
"Speaking of romance Inko, I think we need to get you fitted for a wedding dress soon. If you know what I mean."
Inko started to blush.
Meanwhile, in an unknown location, Hisashi was meeting with someone. The stranger provided Hisashi with some kind of needle. It was something that could be used to put an end to quirks. Whatever Hisashi planned to do with it, it was certain not to be good. In another room a little girl was hugging her bed tightly.
"Someone….." she said.
