Heya guys! Hope you enjoyed the first chapter. So let's get on with the story
Chapter 2
He said it. He really said it. He said I could be a hero. Tears rolled down Izuku face as he was finally being acknowledged by his hero.
"You, young man, are worthy to inherit my strength."
Saturday
Hakai was walking down the sidewalk, leaving a ramen stall, going to go practice with his quirk. He was wearing a blue shirt with gray sweat pants.
"Master." Said Amelia, appearing in a box on his HUD screen. "The boy named Bakugo Katsuki is in the area." She pointed to him walking down the street, using 2.5D arrows. He was wearing a black t-shirt with green shorts.
"Since we have time, let's pay him a visit."
"I see that smile. You're going to start something, aren't you?"
"What? Nooooo..." Hakai said slurring off and walked up to Katsuki. "What's up Bakugo?"
"What the hell? You're that guy at the villain attack. Roiyaru, was it? What do you want?" He replied in a bored voice.
"I was just on my way to Quirk practice. Amelia saw you over here, so I thought I'd say hello. What about you?"
"I was on my way to practice too. Where do you practice?"
"In the forest by my house. Since you're going to practice too, do you want to do it together? Its been a while since I've had a training partner." Hakai suggested.
"HAHAHA! You really want to go against me? Okay, why not. Gives me some practice for the U.A. entrance exam." With that, we started walking.
"I've actually taken a test and gotten a recommendation for U.A." Hakai casually mentioned
"What?!" Katsuki exclaimed, angrily.
"Yeah, but I'm still deciding if I want to accept it that way."
"Why?"
"Sure I did work for it, but I'm curious what the standard test will be like. Besides, I want to earn my way in like everyone else. Not just walk into school like I'm royalty." Katsuki turned and gave him a blank look.
"...It's Your name." Hakai was about to say something, but he couldn't refute.
"He's right," Amelia said on screen.
"By the way," he started, "Why do you wear those weird cuffs around yourself. There on your wrist, ankles, neck, and waist. I guess I didn't see the first time because of your uniform."
He completely forgot. They were visible now, and that made him feel a little nervous. "Well, these were specifically designed to put a limit on my quirk. I have a tendency of...getting wild up. So I have these glasses to sorta make up for them."
They reached the part of the forest where Hakai usually trains. It was a big clearing with big, tall trees surrounding it. The "O" shaped clearing had a lake on the north side and a big crack in the ground in the west that stretched way past the clearing.
"What happened there?" Katsuki asked.
"I may have gotten a little too worked up," he muttered.
Bakugo walked to the center and started stretching. "All right let's get started." He got into a battle stance and stared at Hakai cautiously. Completely unlike before.
Hakai lifted to glasses to his forehead. "Ready when you are." He formed loose armor around his forearm and lower legs. And with that, it was on.
Suddenly Katsuki threw his left hand back and let off an explosion propelling him forward, then swung his right arm mid-flight. In response, Hakai put his hand up and made a circular pane of energy to blocked the explosion that came after. Then he surrounded his arm with his aura of energy while grabbing Katsuki's arm and threw him forcefully to the side a dozen meters. But he made chains of energy wrap around him and pulled him back. On his way back, chains letting go, Hakai punched him in the stomach, sending him back again. Before hitting the ground, Katsuki put both his hands back and blasted to slow himself down.
"That looks pretty fun," Hakai remarked. He made a feint cloak of energy cover his body a dashed after Katsuki. He put his hand out, and let out an explosion towards me, but Hakai jumped up over it. When he came down, he put his hands together and gathered energy between them. Then suddenly made the energy expand and spread out, causing an explosion. But just in time, Katsuki let one off with his other hand equalling out with his.
"What?! How did you do that?" He exclaimed.
"My quirk is 'Energy'. It's very versatile."
"All right!" Katsuki put both his hands together and planted his feet. "Match this!" And let off a massive, ground shaking explosion. Hakai put up a shield and tried to make himself push forward through the center of the blast. After the blast cleared, he saw Katsuki running towards me. He threw an explosion propelled punch, but Hakai caught him with a cross-counter, though Katsuki's explosion still got him. They both flew back. Katsuki landed on his back, and so did Hakai. They both got up and got into their stances.
"Don't get too worked up Master," Amelia advised. "You don't want a repeat of last year."
"Don't worry, I'm calm," Hakai responded. Then, again, rushed after Katsuki. We continued to exchange blow deep into the afternoon.
Soon, they walking out of the forest. Completely drained.
"You're not bad, Roiyaru, I will say that," Katsuki stated.
"Neither are you. The way you use your explosions is very interesting. You're very adaptive."
"I know I am." Katsuki gloated
"Well after a session like that, I'm getting something to eat."
"Sure, if you're buying."
"Why not?" Hakai laughed and slid my glasses down to my face. "But, we're getting hamburgers."
How do people even get giant stuff to the beach anyway? I guess I should be happy. Moving all those things is giving a proper work out to inherit 'One for All'.
Izuku thought, walking away from a long day of clearing the beach of trash and heaps of heavy objects.
"I'm starving." He sighed. He looked up and saw a Burger restaurant down the street. "Hmm. It is the weekend, as long as I have a healthy side."
Right when he was about to grab the door handle he heard his name.
"Midoriya!"
He turned around and saw Hakai walking down the street. He was wearing a blue shirt with gray sweat pants. But for some reason, he also had cuffs on his wrist, ankles, neck, and a big one around his waist.
"Hey, Roiyaru. What are you doing here?"
"Me and Bakugo we're practicing and now we're getting hamburgers. Though I'm paying. I'll get yours too."
"Really? Thank you!"
"Don't worry about it."
Soon they got the food and sat down and started eating. Though, the air was kind of tense. Izuku was a little nervous being close to Katsuki, so he guessed he looked nervous and sweaty, Katsuki looked to the side in boredom, and Hakai was already halfway done with his meal. But Izuku wanted to break the silence. He looked down and saw something on Hakai's arms. As he shifted his arms, Izuku noticed they were very thick, metal cuff-bracelets he noticed earlier.
"Why do you have those cuffs on? They are a little thick."
"Oh. They keep my quirk from exerting too much. I tend to get a little too into action and such, which leads to me doing some...pretty destructive things. The cuffs are for when I get into those moods, prevent me from doing too much by limiting my quirk."
"That's awesome!" Izuku exclaimed.
"Whatever." Katsuki scoffed. "Probably why you got the U.A. recommendation."
"What?! U.A.! Really?!"
"Yeah, I got an official recommendation to go. But I think I'm going to try to get in the normal way."
"I'm going to try out too."
"You're still going on about that?" Katsuki laughed. "What exactly do you plan on doing? Cry your way through it?" Then he started laughing again, really hard. Almost choking on his hamburger.
"Hey, don't listen to him, you never know what could happen," Hakai said, trying to keep Izuku's spirits up. But he knew Hakai was thinking similarly.
"Thanks," he said quietly. But then Hakai put his finger to his chin as if he was thinking of something.
"Midoriya, I guessing your favorite color is green, right?".
"Well, yeah. Why?" He answered, completely confused but filled with curiosity.
"You'll find out later." Hakai smiled. But that only made him more curious. But it seems that he's just going to have to wait.
"What about you, Bakugo? Are you trying out?" Izuku asked Katsuki, hoping he won't try to hurt him.
"Yeah. And I'm getting in for sure! In fact, I'm going to start training like never before!" He bragged.
"Nice! I should probably work on my quirk tolerance too." Hakai responded.
"Quirk tolerance?" I asked. I didn't know his quirk had drawbacks.
"Whenever I use my quirk, my body starts to hurt. It starts as something unnoticeable. But the more and longer I use it, the more painful it becomes, which is another reason for the cuffs. But enough about that. Let's all do our best to get into U.A.!"
"Alright then!" Izuku exclaimed. "Maybe we will all get in."
"Right!" Hakai smiled. Katsuki just looked to the side and ignored me completely.
"You know Bakugo, you could try to be nicer," Hakai said.
"...No." He muttered.
Hakai let out a sigh and rubbed his head, and Izuku couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, everyone," Hakai said standing up and extending his hand. "I'll see you all there!"
