In the hours it took to fully digest the strand of hair, Izuku began going over this year's life planner. 'So in the mornings I train with Yagi-Sensei, in the evenings I train with Kendo-Sensei and it looks like after training with Kendo-Sensei, I do my own body training.' he thought to himself. 'The new meal plans are extreme in calorie intake? I wonder if that's because of One For All or because the training is more labor intensive? Probably both.' Izuku nodded to himself.
After several hours passed, the greenette could feel something change within him. It was barely even noticeable but it was there, he was more. "Yagi-Sensei, I can feel it." he told the sickly blonde who smiled in barely contained excitement.
"Okay Midoriya-Shounen, it's time for your first step at mastering One For All's awesome power. Right now, since you have no control of your Quirk, I have come across a secluded place where you can train to your full potential." Izuku raised an eyebrow but nodded in understanding.
He's seen the kinda destruction All Might can do.
"Let's get going, my successor!" Toshinori exclaimed in excitement, which Izuku copied with great enthusiasm.
...
The freckled faced teen jaw dropped. "You, you bought an Island!?" The fourteen year old muttered in astonishment, as he stepped out of the boat Toshinori rented to get here.
"What? No!" Toshinori was flabbergasted at the thought. "I'm not sure if you're aware, but half a decade ago the government of Japan wished to create a city where the use of Quirks were not only allowed but encouraged. it was supposed to be the first step in losser laws in regards to Quirk usage, so we could finally follow the United States and Russia who in the past decade, managed to successfully incorporate those lax laws." The number one Pro Hero began explaining.
"As the city was about to be finished, the House of Councillors and Representatives received information that the contractors had used unstable and toxic materials to build the entire city and so the project was scrapped and abandoned. As it would cost too much money to tear everything down and start over." Izuku didn't know any of this but found it incredibly interesting.
"About half way through, the first year of your training when I realized that you were serious and not going to give up, I began searching for a safe place where you didn't have to worry about destroying anything or hurting anyone. I talked to a few Senators, told them I needed a secluded and safe place to train and they mentioned this place, said I was free to use it as much as I want." Toshinori patted the boy on the back.
"I can't believe you thought I bought an Island!" The emaciated man laughed in disbelief, Izuku chuckled along with him. "Anyway this place won't only help you hone your new and dangerous abilities but also give a fresh start to this island. Remember Midoriya-Shounen, being a Hero isn't just about punching out villains but also helping out the community!" Toshinori transformed into his buff form and for some reason Izuku could hear the United States national anthem.
'Why isn't it the Japanese national anthem?' he thought to himself before shaking that absurd thought off. "So where should I start?" he asked, looking around the tall buildings.
"Start anywhere!" Toshinori exclaimed with a smile before it turned firm. "But I have to warn you, even though you are a proper vessel, your body will take a while to adapt to One For All, so expect some push back." Toshinori wiggled his pointer finger towards the boy who nodded, the emerald eyed teen approached a five story office building and took a deep breath.
He reached towards his core where he could feel his new power laid and channeled it towards his left arm.
The bushy haired teen could feel the muscles bulge slightly, his bones being put under harsh pressure, and the blood in his veins turning into molten lava but he ignored all that as he swung his arm back and punched the building.
"BOOOM!" Izuku felt ringing in his ears and a dust cloud encompassed his vision as it cleared, the freckled teen saw the building he was standing in front of gone along with the two behind it. "Dear, Kami." he muttered to himself, as he looked at his arm, his emerald orbs widened in horror.
Izuku's entire left arm, from his bicep down, was a dark purple and his t-shirt was gone. He tried moving, causing him to fall onto his knees in pure agony. "Motherfucker!" he cursed, agony coursing through his veins.
"Wow... I did not think it would be this bad." Toshinori muttered to himself as he kneeled next to his successor who was crying in pain. 'I don't understand, I thought it would be a slight break or two but, but it's completely shattered.' the emaciated man thought to himself.
"Okay I, I need to get you some help." Toshinori told the greenette, who nodded with a pinched scowl.
"You think." Izuku sarcastically replied, his voice strained in pain and winced as Toshinori picked him and jumped away from the island, towards the Takoba Municipal Beach.
Once All Might landed, he ignored the awed whispers and crouched down and jumped again, landing on top of an apartment complex. The number one Hero looked towards the city's horizon and narrowed his eyes, recognizing an old friend's house that could help the greenette.
He immediately jumped towards it and landed on their lawn, causing the ground to shake from his power. Toshinori walked towards the door to knock but as he did, it swung open revealing Shuzenji Chiyo, athree foot and nine inch woman with gray hair, styled in a high bun and leaning on a cane. "Toshinori-San! What are.." she began yelling before eyeing the forest green haired injured boy in his arms.
"Chiyo-San, I need your help." Toshinori told the woman who sighed and stepped aside to allow the large blonde man entry into her home.
As he walked in, the buff Hero immediately laid his injured, whimpering successor onto her couch. "What happened?" she questioned as she looked at the purple broken arm of the shirtless boy.
"Meet my successor; Midoriya Izuku." Chiyo's eyes widened and she looked over the boy more closely and saw his extremely muscular form, the dark circles under around his eyes, the callouses surrounding his knuckles, elbows, and knees.
"How could you be so careless!" She hit the blonde oaf in the shin with her walking cane but he didn't even flinch. " So foolish! He doesn't look a day over twelve!" she exclaimed in anger. "The amount of calluses over his body is astounding!" she exclaimed.
"He's actually turning fifteen in july." Toshinori silently remarked, Chiyo felt her face heat in righteous fury.
"What!" the older woman took a deep breath and rubbed her eyes. "How long have you been teaching him?" she questioned, knowing only an extreme amount of training would give him the amount of calluses and muscles he exhibited.
Toshinori sighed, "Since he was twelve." he admitted and felt a slight sting in his right knee cap.
"Well no wonder he's so Kami damn short!" She yelled at the victory hair styled blonde. "With you and all your overachieving attitude he's probably under fed, overworked, and underslept!" she fumed.
After a moment of silence, "He's not under fed." was all Toshinori could say.
Chiyo turned towards the teen and kissed him on the forehead and his whole body glowed green for a moment and his left arm was suddenly healed, with all his pain gone.
Izuku suddenly shot forward blinking, "Wow." he muttered and looked towards his arm in astonishment, he turned towards the older woman who seemed to be looking him over. "Your Shuzenji Chiyo; The Youthful Heroine Recovery Girl!" Izuku exclaimed in excitement.
"Wow, you immediately recognized me." she stated. "That's impressive." Izuku blushed.
"I'm a major Pro-Hero fan, you're actually my second favorite Hero after All Might!" Chiyo hummed in acknowledgement.
"Well, you're good to go young man but may I ask about those scars on your shoulders and stomach? They seem to be second degree burns but I can't tell from where." she asked the boy who seemed to lose most of his exbrurance.
"Oh, there from when I was little. My friend has an explosive Quirk and he got a little too excited a few times." he nervously chuckled and rubbed the back of his neck.
Chiyo looked at the boy for a moment and nodded. "Okay." she stated and sighed. "I'm probably going to regret this.." she muttered and turned towards Toshinori. "Whenever you're going to train this boy in One For All you will pick me up! I much rather be there to watch over him than let you accidently cripple him!" Toshinori flinched but nodded in agreement.
Izuku's eyes widened in disbelief. "You know about One For All?!" He turned towards his teacher. "She knows about One For All?!" Toshinori laughed loudly.
"Yep!" Izuku blushed and Chiyo rolled her eyes at the large man.
"What are you laughing about Toshi! You did the exact same thing when Nana introduced us!" Toshinori stopped laughing and Izuku could see a slight reddening of his cheeks.
...
Izuku stood in front of Arihi and bowed, already wearing his bright white gi. "Now Midoriya-San, you've done amazing work and I dare say you've reached Toshinori-San's enormous expectations for you in gaining a black belt." the greenette nodded, Ituska clapped lightly in achievement and the bushy haired teen blushed slightly.
"Now we both agree that while you are proficient in both Taekwondo and Boxing, you need experience in combining both styles together into one cohesive fighting style and that will be my new role. For the next year or so, we will mostly be sparring for several hours while you're under my care." Izuku gave a nod in understanding.
"I've also talked it over with Itsuka, she will be trading off with me every couple hours so you can spar with someone your own age who has a somewhat different fighting style than myself." Izuku grinned at the orange haired girl who smirked in return. "Okay stop making googly eyes at each other." Both teens blushed at the accusation. "Let's begin." Izuku entered a boxing stance and ran towards the deadly Martial Artist.
...
Itsuka iced Izuku's black eye, "You really have come a long way, Izuku-Kun." The freckled fourteen year old smiled lightly. "I don't think I've seen anyone work as hard as you do." she spoke softly and the boy's cheeks colored at her awed tone.
"You wanna see something cool." Izuku asked and the girl raised an eyebrow at the greenette.
"Always." Izuku laughed and nodded.
The freckled face teen, raised his right arm level to his chest and pulled back his sleeve, after a moment, he channeled One For All towards it and winced at the strain he was putting his arm through but smiled at the awed look in Itsuka's teal eyes.
Itsuka's eyes widened at the sight of Izuku's arm.
She could see his veins turning bright red and little sparks of electricity bounced off his slightly glowing arm before it disappeared. "You have a Quirk?" she muttered in astonishment and a sting of betrayal.
"Yeah! isn't that cool! I went to the Doctor today and he told me that the reason it never activated before was because it stockpiles kinetic energy! And I've managed to gather enough energy to activate it!" he laughed with excitement. 'I wish I could tell you the truth but I can't betray All Might's trust.' he thought as he fed her a lie he and Toshinori came up with.
Itsuka let out a breath, the orangette didn't know she was holding it. 'He didn't lie to me!' "That's amazing Izuku-Kun! What did Mirio, Nejire and Tamaki say?" Izuku shrugged his shoulders.
"I haven't had the chance to tell them yet, you're the first person I've told." the girl blush and smiled widely.
Itsuka punched the boy's shoulder and he rubbed it slightly. "Oww!" he whined slightly. "What was that for!" he asked.
"I'll tell you one day." she said, getting a confused head tilt from the bushy greenette.
...
Izuku unlocked his predecessor gym and began his new workout routine.
The freckled teen quickly stripped off his shirt and began stretching, loosing up some tight muscles and began a twenty minute run on the escalating/ deescalating treadmill.
After he finished, Izuku went to the twin ropes attached to the wall and began working on his arms for another twenty minutes.
Once the fourteen year old started to work up a healthy sweat, the greenette did twenty sets of ten pull up reps, followed by another twenty sets of ten walking lunges reps. After finishing, the greenette began performing leg presses at four hundred pounds and then switched to bench presses, at two hundred pounds.
He performed several more exercises before he felt satisfied and towelled off his sweat riddled body and began walking home.
...
Izuku stood beside Chiyo and Toshinori as the sun barely moved up from the horizon. "Okay my boy, you know what it feels like to channel One For All at full power, so now you just need to lower the percentage!" Izuku looked confused but nodded anyway, Chiyo sighed.
"I shouldn't have expected more from you." she muttered and the blonde pouted slightly.
Izuku took a deep breath and channeled the well of power towards his left arm and squeezed his eyes shut in discomfort. He tried pulling back the excess energy but he could feel that his power was still at a hundred percent, after a few moments several loud snaps were heard. "Agh!" Izuku grabbed his arm in pain.
Chiyo walked over to the boy and checked his arm for a moment, "There are several clean breaks along the whole limb. Nothing like it was yesterday." she stated and as she was about to kiss him Toshinori stopped her.
"Might as well let him practice with his other arm before healing him." Chiyo glared at the blonde but Izuku quickly agreed.
After a solid ten seconds, several snaps could be heard followed by a scream.
Chiyo quickly kissed the boy, healing him of his injuries. "Thank you." he slightly bowed to the woman who waved him off, offering him some candy which he gladly took.
"It is no problem but you need to take a break for about an hour." Izuku looked confused.
"I'm sure you already know this but my Quirk works by using the user's stamina; Now as you have One For All, I can heal most of your injuries no problem but if you rack up too many, too soon then I'm more likely to kill you, then heal you!" Izuku's eyes grew in understanding. "So it's best to air on the side of caution." Izuku nodded in agreement and Toshinori stepped close to the greenette.
"In the meantime, I'm going to show you how to meditate; my own master helped me learn and it was a big help in my learning to fully harness One For All myself. Of course I had complete control of it when I inherited it." he muttered the last part and winced as Chiyo smacked him across the back of his head.
"You were also in your second year of U.A, had three years of training, six feet tall, built like a brick house, and had two amazing teachers." she said with an annoyed tone and Izuku chuckled slightly.
Toshinori coughed slightly and brought the teen's attention back. "Okay, Izuku sit down, cross your legs and close your eyes." Izuku did as he was told. "Take a deep breath through your mouth and out through your nose." Izuku took a deep breath through his mouth and out through his nose. "Again; in through your mouth and out through your nose." Izuku performed the action again.
"Now keep doing that, don't stop. As you follow the breathing pattern, I want you to focus on your power but don't draw from it." Izuku immediately located One For All. "I want you to feel it, immerse yourself in it." Izuku did as he was told and 'touched' the power. It felt addicting. "I want you to describe it for me."
Izuku thought about it for a moment. "It's like a lightning storm. There are no clouds, no rain or wind... just pure electricity, pure thunder, and... pure power. It's cold but it feels good, amazing." Toshinori nodded.
"Good focus on that power. let it cloud your senses, let it blind you." Izuku's breathing started to change, he began hyperventilating. "Remember in through the mouth, out through noise; Always." Izuku held his breath for a second and took a breath through his mouth and released it through his nose.
Izuku loved the feeling of One For All. He loved it like he thought he was supposed to love a woman.
Izuku thought he could stay like this forever, just him and One For All. "And that's an hour." The greenette's eyes snapped open in astonishment and he heard a chuckle.
"I know." Toshinori patted the teen's back. "What you're feeling right now is perfectly normal. You've never felt anything like One For All before, the power it gives you, the way it feels in your body." Toshinori sighed with a smile. "It goes double for people like us who didn't have a Quirk before and suddenly have all this energy, a literally well of power thrust upon us with no preparation." the emaciated man shook his head with a small smile.
"But you have to be careful, if you use it too much, fall in too deeply, this can happen." he lifted his arms to show himself. "I bonded with One For All so completely, immersed myself so totally, that when I got injured and One For All deactivated for the first time in several decades my body went into shock. It's half the reason I needed so many surgeries because without One For All coursing through my veins, my organs couldn't handle not being supported by the power." Izuku's eyes widened in horror.
"Is that why your Sclera is black? it's from Quirk overuse." Toshinori nodded.
"Yes, One For All is an amazing power. It strengthens your base stats to a superhuman level so it can handle the full might of the ancient Quirk but it's also cursed in a way. It's addicting, it can make you arrogant if you let it." he warned and Izuku knew exactly what he was saying.
"Now, let's try again." Toshinori stated and Izuku began channeling One For All into his left arm again.
...
Nejire's eyes seemed to sparkle in amazement as she stared at Izuku's glowing arm. "That's so cool, Izu-Kun!" she exclaimed and Mirio nodded enthusiastically in agreement.
"So how long have you had... what are you calling your Quirk anyway?" Tamaki asked, Izuku thought about it for a moment before a smile crossed his pale, freckled face.
"SUPERPOWER!" The three older teens looked at Izuku with dead eyes, causing the greenette to flinch.
"What?" he muttered as he looked down at his bright red shoes. "I think it sounds cool." The greenette said with a resolute frown.
"So how long have you had..." Tamaki sighed, " 'SUPERPOWER' for?" he asked the younger teen.
"Including today? two days." he told the indigo haired boy who looked surprised.
"Wow. So you probably can't control it at all, can you?" Mirio asked with worry in his tone which was mirrored on Tamaki and Nejire's faces.
"Not at all. Right now It's all or nothing..."He thought about mentioning how he broke his arm but deciding against it. "But I'll get a hang of it eventually." he smiled and the three teens nodded with their own smiles.
"Well, I'm sure you will Izu-Kun and if you're having too much trouble all you have to do is ask and we'll try and help you." Nejire stated with both Tamaki and Mirio nodding in agreement.
"Thanks guys! You're the greatest friends I could ever ask for." Izuku complimented the trio with a large grin which the three returned.
As they chatted away a server came by and sat down their respective food plates; Izuku dug into a burger while Mirio ate some chilli fries and Nejire consumed some Miso soup, and Tamaki stuffed his mouth with Takoyaki balls.
Izuku began talking to Nejire about a new Quirk he had seen but got distracted watching the indigo haired boy eat his meal, the greenette gasped with an idea. "You have tentacles!" he exclaimed and the three older teens looked at him in confusion.
"Yes..?" Tamaki confirmed and Izuku nodded his head, waving his arms around.
"Yes. Yesyesyesyesyes! You can transform each of your fingers into tentacles! You could just transform your entire arms into the appendages but you don't because ten tentacles are better than two!" he yelled at the indigo haired teen who scooted away from the boy in slight fear.
"That makes sense." Nejire lightly commented on the train of thought, wondering where he was going.
"Why should I waste the whole arm when I can give myself ten chances by practicing on my fingers first!" All three teens looked confused but nodded along anyway. "Technically I have twelve if I then go from the palm up!" He exclaimed with a large smile. "Wait no! I have twenty four if I use my toes and then my legs!" Izuku reached across the table and hugged the indigo haired boy.
"Thank you Tamaki! I could never have made this breakthrough without you!" Tamaki patted Izuku on the back with a small smile.
"No problem, Izuku-Kun." The indigo haired teen stated.
...
Toshinori nodded at the greenette as Chiyo stared in horror at the young teen. "That would give you a whole lot more chances of learning control and it would be about the same amount of damage either way." Izuku nodded in agreement. "It's also a good lesson on pain tolerance." The older woman rubbed her eyes in mental exhaustion.
"If we do this then we're upping his rest time to two hours and his day off extends to Saturdays." she stated and Toshinori nodded in agreement. "Then let's get started." Izuku nodded and tossed away his socks and shoes before sitting down with his legs crossed and his hands open with his palms facing outward.
Izuku focused One For All in his pointer finger and tried dialing the power back and for a moment it felt like he did... to a single percent but it then broke under the strain of the power.
He held in a scream of pain and bit his lip. Izuku took a moment, and tried to banish the pain, breathing in several times before moving onto the next finger.
...
Izuku breathed heavily as he laid against Arihi's floor, his gi was wide open exposing his sweaty chiseled body where several large bruises had formed.
Itsuka sat against a wall breathing as heavily as the greenette. She eagerly drank as much water from a bottle as she possibly could before tossing the drink towards the greenette which he caught and immediately drank from.
"Tha..." Izuku coughed. "That kick to the Solar plexus was uncalled for." he stated and the teal eyed girl laughed.
"Whatever." she waved him off. "So how's Yagi-Sensei dealing with your sudden Quirk emergence?" Izuku stilled slightly. "It must be crazy for him right? I mean he was training you to be a Quirkless Pro Hero and now you have this super powerful Quirk." she started rambling slightly. "I mean he must be excited right?"
"It's going okay I suppose. My body is having some trouble adapting to the power but I'll get there." he told the girl who agreed wholeheartedly.
"Well, want to watch a movie?" Itsuka asked and after a moments though Izuku agreed.
...
Izuku once again had the same homeroom as Kacchan. After his little speech last year, the ash blonde had completely ignored him and stopped bullying him, along with everyone else. He was still angry and explosive, still incredibly egotistical but he was better and Izuku was immensely proud of him.
Which he will never actually say to the teen as he would probably try and kill him.
Another fact is that Izuku finally broke five feet after ages being stuck at being four foot and ten inches.
He was still the shortest person in his grade but he was growing again! Soon those cursed nicknames he had acquired since the beginning second year will end.
No one shrimpy, shortstack, itty bitty, and so much more!
The freckled teen was also gaining slight control of One For All! He was in the high eighties but slowly and surely, like the turtle, he will gain control of his power.
...
Izuku had fallen in love with meditating, becoming one with One For All. The only thing he didn't like about his powers was how long it took to learn proper control. It was the middle of May and he had managed to force his Quirk to the low forties but the small progress was excruciating.
...
Izuku grinned, feeling the mid June sun rays hit his body.
He wore a green polo shirt with blue jeans and black sneakers, roaring joyously as Mirio stood as number one in the sports festival with Tamaki as number two and Nejire as number three.
Itsuka was on his side standing on top of her chair with her hands above her head, wearing a white shirt with a black crop leather jacket, black leggings and matching slip on shoes, screaming as loudly as he and the rest of the crowd was.
"I can't believe next year that's going to be us!" she exclaimed to the greenette who nodded.
"I can't wait!" Izuku screamed in return, standing up and hugging the girl tightly, spinning her around, causing her to scream in surprise before laughing.
As the bushy haired teen set her down, Itsuka noticed he was only an inch shorter than her five foot and four inch frame."I can't believe how fast you're growing, it's amazing!" she told the boy as she held his forearms.
Izuku realized he was still holding onto the orangette's waist and blushed as he looked into her teal eyes. " Yeah! Pretty soon, I'll be taller than you! After that, no more short jokes!" he cheered and the orangette laughed.
...
Nejire squealed as she saw Izuku and Itsuka waiting for her, Mirio and Tamaki. As he saw the greenette wave at them she immediately ran towards him and jumped into his arms. "Izu-Kun, I was in the top three! Me!" Izuku nodded against her neck.
"I saw! You 're amazing Nejire-Chan, truly spectacular!" he told her as he set her down standing two inches below her height and the periwinkle haired girl blushed, staring at the much taller Izuku.
'He's a lot more handsome at this height for some reason... maybe because he actually looks his age and not like he just entered middle school.' Izuku coughed, gaining back her attention with his own heated checks. "Let's go get some food!" she stated and everybody nodded in agreement.
Itsuka stared at the older teen for a moment, 'I may need to ask him out sooner than I thought.' she thought to herself.
...
Izuku's fighting style was coming along nicely. His spars with both Itsuka and Kendo-Sensei were getting easier and lasting longer. He actually beat Itsuka twice.
Arihi even wanted him to enter a Martial Arts tournament that was happening during summer. Izuku said no at first until the older gray haired man brought up how he needed more experience with different fighting styles, in order to become more well rounded, after some thought Izuku agreed.
On a different note he could now channel One For All at the low twenties, he was sure in another month or two, he would know what every percentage of his power felt like and control it properly.
...
Inko couldn't believe how fast her son was growing. It was only three and a half months ago when he was shorter than her, she thought about taking him to the doctor several times but he always managed to talk her out of it.
The plump woman wondered if he was taking drugs but he showed no signs and she didn't want to think of her baby doing something like that.
The older greenette was just glad her baby was growing again. Inko couldn't wait until his birthday came around in a week. She had the perfect present for him.
...
Izuku felt his middle finger on his right hand shaking with twelve percent of One For All but it was only slightly painful.
He felt like he could actually manage the power at this level but he wanted to see where his body was comfortable at; no pain, no shakiness, just power.
After Izuku's finger broke he immediately went to his ring finger, after a couple minutes the freckled teen managed to lower his output to ten percent before the finger broke.
As he channeled One For All again, this time at his pinky, he finally, after three and a half months of training, found the safe limit to his power at eight percent.
"I did it!" Izuku exclaimed, jumping into his feet with overwhelming excitement, the emaciated Toshinori immediately tossed away his cards and Chiyo cursed.
"I almost had you Toshi!" she told the man who nervously laughed before bounding towards the boy with a large grin.
"I can safely use eight percent of One For All without any pain, or strain or anything!" Toshinori cheered in joy while Chiyo smiled.
"That's great Izuku-Shonen! We can now take your training to it's final level!" Izuku vibrated with excitement.
Chiyo stepped forward and patted the boy on the back before kissing him on the forehead, healing his eight broken fingers.
"Okay Izuku-Shounen, channel One For All throughout your entire body and keep it at eight percent. Let's see what you can do!" the fair skinned teen nodded and stood up before taking a deep breath.
He grabbed One For All and channeled the storm through every inch of his body. "Oh, Kami!" Izuku breathed out, he saw his veins burn bright red and his skin glow with power with small sparks of bright green electricity bouncing off his form.
Toshinori grinned at Izuku's glowing green eyes and he activated his own Quirk, growing in muscle definition, his own eyes glowing like gems through his black sclera. "Run my boy!" Izuku's eyes widened and he disappeared through the dusty city with All Might hot on his heels.
"Sometimes I wonder how he ever became number one." Chiyo shook her head. "At least I can sleep in again." she muttered as she stared at the bright morning sun.
"You must keep focus, my successor!" All Might bellowed as he saw Izuku falter and the lightning disappear for a moment before roaring back.
The greenette entered an alleyway and jumped between two walls, onto the roof, "You need to be faster than that!" The blonde Pro exclaimed and Izuku leaped, clearing two rooftops before landing onto a third and continued running.
Izuku never felt more alive with One For All properly running through his veins. He wondered how All Might stayed so down to earth when everything felt so insignificant. The world was so much slower, clearer, brighter, more colorful! He could hear Toshinori-Sensei's heartbeat along with Shuzenji-San's! Everything was so intense!
"Come on Izuku! You can do better than this!" Izuku laughed as he leaped again for a second and third time.
...
After sparring with the Kendos', Izuku went to the gym like always but instead of his normal workout routine he decided to test the limits of One For All.
Izuku immediately stripped off his shirt and went to the treadmill and set it to nine miles. The teen began running and mentally charted how fast he was going at his base level.
After a mile he then channeled One For All, letting it fill his body at one percent and ran another mile, he continued the process until he hit his limit and stopped.
Izuku hopped off the treadmill and walked towards the leg press and increased the weights to a certain degree after performing ten reps at each percentage until he hit his limit.
He followed that pattern to the weight bench and finally the arm press. As he wiped himself off with a towel he walked over to his bag, dug out a blank notebook and wrote down his findings.
/SUPERPOWER is a reusable Kinetic stockpiling Quirk which stores energy from movement. The greater and the more strenuous the movement such as exercise the more energy is stockpiled for later use./ Izuku covered his bases, not wanting to even mention One For All in his notebooks in any way that was meaningful, it also helped keeping his story straight with how his Quirk worked to friends, strangers, future teachers, and future classmates.
Now with the basics out of the way. /SUPERPOWER works by percentages that multiply the body's functions like strength, speed, durability, sight, hearing and maybe even smell and taste by a half a point. Every two percent multiplies the body by a whole point. At my current hundred percent of my capacity everything is multiplied by four./ The boy nodded with a smile and closed the notebook and tossed it into his bag.
The greenette grabbed his shirt and put it back on before leaving the gym and running home.
...
Izuku stared at the bright green sports motorcycle in front of him with wide eyes. "You, you got me a motorcycle!" The greenette exclaimed, staring at his mentor with stars in his eyes.
"Yep! I remember riding one of these when I was a few years older than you. I know for the past couple years you've been forced to take the train or walk everywhere but now, since you're fifteen, I can teach you to ride one of these." Toshinori stated, with a proud grin.
"But my mom would never allow me to ride this thing! She'll never sign a permission slip for the drivers license center!" Toshinori waved his hand, dismissing the thought.
"Kid, I have a friend at the police department. When you're ready, I'll give him a call, and he'll send one over." Izuku's mouth couldn't seem to close.
"The insurance?" he asked with narrowed eyes.
"Did you know I created a motorcycle insurance company? Yeah it's not very well known but we do have one customer." Toshinori double finger gunned at the boy.
"The resignation?" Izuku hesitantly asked.
"Under your name... It pays to be the number one." The emaciated man replied with a megawatt smile. "Now enough questions!" he exclaimed and tossed him the keys to the vehicle, which Izuku easily catched.
"Time for your lesson." Toshinori transformed and disappeared for a moment before returning with a yellow Harley Davidson, he gently set it down and climbed on top of it.
"Now usually I would suggest a helmet but with One For All we don't need one." Izuku wanted to refute that but couldn't, he had several buildings fall on top of him and he only got a few bruises.
Izuku had a feeling if Shuzenji-San was here she would hit both of them in the back of the head.
...
Izuku came home around eight a.m with a grin, he quickly entered the kitchen only to be surprised by an awake Midoriya Inko who stared at her son with a hard expression.
"mom!" Izuku exclaimed, "What are you doing up so early, your shift starts at noon." he told the woman.
"Where were you?" she asked and Izuku looked confused for a moment before his eyes widened in realization.
'She must have been awake for a while.' he thought to himself. "I was taking a morning jog." He easily lied to the women with slight guilt in his eyes.
"For three hours." he asked with disbelief.
"No." he shook his head. "I took a run towards the park and did some training there before running back." he told his mother who nodded as she looked at the large dark marks around his neck and armpits with the dirt stains marking his shirt.
"O..okay." she sighed with relief. " You're already fifteen so you don't need to come to me if you need to leave the house. I, I was just worried." Izuku smiled and walked over to the greenette and kissed her on the cheek.
"Sorry to worry you, mom." The freckled teen apologized, relieved she wasn't asking anymore questions. "So what are you doing up so early?" he asked for a second time.
"Well I know we usually celebrate your birthday on the weekends but since you turned fifteen I wanted to give you your gift today." Inko reached down and handed over a wrapped present.
Izuku took it with a warm smile and began tearing the paper away. As he opened the box to reveal a touch screen cellphone with an All Might case, His eyes widened and looked at his mom who smiled. "Like I said, you're fifteen, old enough to have your own smartphone."
'Aww, thanks mom... but I already have a phone. Should I take it but... if I do then what about Toshinori-Sensei's phone... would I just return it...' Izuku smiled at her. 'Nah.. For the looks of it this is a new, top of the line Samsung triple X. It must have cost her a fortune.' "Thanks mom but I don't need a new phone. I actually really like the flip phone I have." Inko pouted slightly.
"Are you sure? I mean this has all kinds of stuff that a teenager will like." Izuku laughed and hugged the woman tightly. "I mean, come on Izuku, a boy your age needs a phone like this." Izuku shook his head.
"Thank you but you should return it. We can use the money on important things." Inko sighed and after a moment nodded.
"You're such a good son." she patted the taller boy's head.
...
Izuku walked up to Mirio and gave him a hug as Tamaki, Nejire and Itsuka stood around them. "Happy birthday, Mirio!" "Happy birthday, Izuku!" they both said at the exact same time.
The greenette released the blonde. "So how's Sir Nighteye's agency treating you?" Mirio scratched his cheek lightly.
"Incredibly well actually! He's offered me a full time work-study!" Izuku's eyes widened in awe. "I'm practically his sidekick!" the blonde stated proudly.
"That's amazing!" Mirio nodded in agreement with a large grin.
"What about you guys?" he asked Tamaki and Nejire.
"Well I like Edgeshot but I'm not sure if he's the right fit for me." Nejire stated. "I think he feels the same way. He never seems to pay attention when I talk, he just nods along." she frowned at the floor but immediately looked up at the now one inch taller boy.
"Then he's a Idiot. You're going to be an amazing Hero and if he can't see that then you'll find someone who will." Nejire grinned widely at the boy with a slight blush and nodded.
Izuku released her shoulder and looked towards Tamaki who raised his hand and shaked it side to side. "Food Rush is alright but he's definitely not for me." he told the greenette who nodded.
"Okay enough chit chat! let's get to some bowling so I can wipe the floor with you chumps!" The orangette threw her first into the air.
...
Izuku stared at his English textbook and bit his lip as a stray thought entered his head, 'I wonder?' Izuku channeled One For All through his body and began reading.
After about two hours Izuku found himself grinning like a lunatic,he finished the textbook completely. He actually finished it in the first twenty minutes and decided to read a few other textbooks.
It felt like the information was just being absorbed into his brain like nothing. He could remember every word, every phrase. Izuku was always good at school... and ever since adopting the Dymaxion sleeping schedule, he had hours of free time he used not only for analysis but studying.
The greenette was ahead of his peers by miles and could have taken a highschool entrance exam, not U.A's, he doubted full grown adults about to enter university could take that test and pass without in-depth studying beforehand, but at a regular school, he would have passed with a respectable score.
But now, it feels like Izuku could hold a full conversation in English, solve several high end chemical, math, and physics equations. 'Oh, I'm going to crush that Entrance Exam!' Izuku innerly exclaimed with fire in his eyes.
The greenette grabbed a notebook in his desk and opened it and began writing. /SUPERPOWER increases cognitive ability, most likely multiplying it to the percentages I channel. My brain seems to process the information and immediately stores it into short term memory, time will tell if it will automatically transfer to long term memory or if I have to do this multiple times to make it stick./
...
Izuku moved uncomfortably in his tight school uniform. 'Kami, if I have to buy another school uniform, I'm gonna scream!' he thought to himself as he adjusted his collar.
After a moment Izuku entered his homeroom and sighed as he spotted a pot of spider lilies sitting on his slur riddled desk and rolled his eyes. 'This is the eighth time in a month! it hurt the first time, the second was even more painful but now they're just wasting money!' The greenette walked to his desk and ignored the snickers of a few of his classmates.
The freckled fifteen year old held up the pot and looked it over, 'This is a nice pot.' He admired the dark blue ornament with crimson red diamond designs that circled twice around it, once around the neck and another around it's base.
The bushy haired greenette picked it up and carried it towards the widow, pouring the contents out of the pot out and then put it in his bag before sitting down at his desk and grabbed a pack of moist towelettes. "You're keeping the pot?" Izuku's desk neighbor asked.
"Yep, Its nice pot." The ninth One For All user shrugged and his neighbor looked at him in concern before turning back with a troubled expression.
The greenette began wipping away the offensive words and marking; Kill yourself, Quirkless, Defenseless Izuku, Deku, jump off a bridge, a poorly drawn middle finger, an actually pretty good drawing of an asshole, and so much more.
'They're not even trying to be creative anymore.' Izuku thought with a bitter smile. 'I won.' a genuine smile appeared on his face.
...
All Might landed in front of a five story ash colored building that had seven window panels on each floor. 'I wondered what Mirai wanted to talk about?' he thought to himself as he waved to a few civilians walking by.
He entered the building and walked up to an open mouth receptionist. "Hello young man! I have an appointment with Sir Nighteye." he boomed at the secretary who nodded with awe and pressed a couple buttons on the phone.
After a moment. "He's in his office, on the fifth floor." Toshinori nodded in gratitude and walked towards the elevator.
As he entered the elevator the blonde deflated and patiently waited from them to open. Once they did, Toshinori stepped out and looked at his merchandise hanging off the walls. 'He's as bad as Izuku-Shounen.' The emaciated blonde innerly laughed.
"All Might! It's good to see you after all this time." Sasaki Mirai, an yellow eyed man wearing a pair of glasses with dark green hair and yellow highlights.
He stood up from his desk, revealing his six foot and seven inch frame that his large, gray suit hung off of. "Mirai-San, It's good seeing you after all these years." he gave his hand to shake which the shorter man gladly returned.
"Listen All Might, I know we've had our differences but it's been five years since your fight with All For One and with your injury you must find a successor soon." Toshinori opened his mouth to speak but the greenette raised his hand. "I know it's not something you like to hear but it's an undeniable truth. Now I found a student at the U.A sports festival that would be a perfect successor for you." Toshinori raised an eyebrow at the man but decided to keep quiet.
"For over the last year, I've taken him on as an apprentice of sorts. Made sure he was actually worthy of your power. He's kind, loyal, hardworking, always smiles, his determination is outstanding, and he has a keen mind." Mirai opened a desk draw and took out a file and handed it to the blonde.
Toshinori sighed but opened it and was faintly surprised to see one of Izuku's friends he met once or twice. "His name is Togata Mirio. He's currently finishing his second year at U.A and I say he's possibly at Pro-Level." The emaciated blonde raised an eyebrow at that but mentally shrugged. "If you like we can set up a meeting so you could see for yourself." Toshinori slammed the folder shut and shook his head.
"That won't be necessary Mirai-San." The shorter man pinched his nose.
"All Might," Toshinori raised his hand and stopped the man from speaking.
"That won't be necessary because I already found a successor." Mirai looked stunned. "Found him a while ago; already trained him and passed him One For All." Toshinori proudly stated.
"Wha.. Who is it!" Mirai demanded to know with a harsh scowl and harsher voice.
"A young boy named Midoriya Izuku, turned fifteen a week ago! Met him before he turned thirteen in his first year of middle school." The emaciated blonde began to reminisce. "Caught me being mugged in this form, risked it all to save a complete stranger while Quirkless. Told me he was going to be a Pro despite it and... what can I say, I took a shine to him." he scratched his cheek. "He reminds me so much of myself at that age; So... awkward! Didn't know how he was going to fulfill his dream but he was gonna do it and damn anyone else who said he couldn't!" The blue eyed Hero laughed, coughing up some blood in the meantime.
"But he's better than me in a lot of ways; He's incredibly intelligent and doesn't have to work for it like me but studies twice as hard as I ever did. Has the patience of a Kami damn saint, " Toshinori sighed as he wiped his face. "I used to get so upset when my master told me I wasn't ready for One For All but Izuku never complained once about me holding back the Quirk. And he is incredibly down to earth, Kami!" The blonde exclaimed. "You should have seen me when Nana passed me One For All, my head grew three sizes that day and I thought I could do anything, everything! It took me getting my ass handed to me by Torino-Sensei and Nana consecutively, and even then!" he roared with laughter at the memories.
"He's a bit of a nerd..." Toshinori stilled for a moment. "He's a huge nerd and it took him a while to escape his very, very thick shell. No doubt from the bullying he most likely received because of his Quirkless status but you should see him smile… Nana, " his eyes teared up for a moment. "Nana would have loved this kid! I've put the world on his shoulders and he hasn't stumbled for a moment." he subconsciously touched his wound. "Not like I did... like I have." Toshinori licked his lips. "He will be the greatest Hero in the world, better than me, better than anyone! A true Superhero!" Mirai looked stunned at his speech.
"I,I look forward to one day meeting him." he told the number one who nodded.
"You'll like him." Toshinori said with complete confidence.
...
Izuku held Ituska's hand for support as they skated around an ice ring. "You're really bad at this." the orangette commented to the five foot and six inch boy, a single inch taller than her.
Izuku threw her a slight glare causing the teal eyed girl to laugh. "I hate you Itsuka-Chan." the girl shook her head. "And if you gave me heads up about wanting to come here for your birthday, I might have taken a few lessons." Izuku stated.
"First of all; No you don't." She simply refuted the boy who sighed before smiling. "Second of all, that's why I didn't tell you. Now I can enjoy watching you faceplant on the ice."
"Whatever shorty." he winked at the girl and Itsuka blushed slightly both in embarrassment and anger.
"You're an inch taller than me Izuku! An Inch! I can still catch up!" Izuku laughed with a superior look in his eyes.
"At the rate I'm growing?" he raised a sarcastic eyebrow. "I don't think so~." Itsuka narrowed her teal eyes and let go of his hand, the greenette immediately lost balance and fell flat on his ass.
"You deserve that." Itsuka stated as she crossed her arms with a pout and skated away.
Izuku struggled to stand up and catch up to her, they spent another hour at the ring before heading home.
Izuku climbed on top of his motorcycle and handed the orangette a helmet. "I still can't believe you ride a motorcycle now." The teal orbed teen spoke as she put the helmet on and hugged the greenette. "I also can't believe you're one of those idiots who don't wear a helmet." Izuku rolled his eyes.
"Itsuka-Chan." The freckled teen turned his head slightly, revealing a glowing green eye and glowing pale skin, which she knew meant he activated SUPERPOWER. "Come on." he said like that meant something.
"How did you get your license anyway?" she asked, not thinking about that earlier when he picked her up on the bike, too surprised at him riding it, to ask any meaningful questions.
"Sensei. He has a friend in the police and they made an allowance for me since Toshinori-Sensei taught me himself. I actually forced him to increase my lessons so I could drive you." Izuku stated as he started up the vehicle and began driving, not noticing the blush the girl had under her helmet.
"Th..thanks." she told the boy, hugging his stomach tighter.
"So we're still on for lunch tomorrow with everyone else right?" Izuku asked as he stopped at a red-light.
Ituska nodded. "Of course." she sighed slightly, "I know you like spending your birthday with all of us but I kinda like just spending my actual birthday with you and dad." Izuku blushed but smiled brightly.
...
Nejire giggled slightly as Izuku waved at them on his motorcycle, already changed out of his school uniform and wearing a red dress shirt with black jeans with his signature red shoes that he wore more often than not.
She could see several U.A students look over towards him. The long haired girl knew no one really recognized him as he only came at the start and end of their first days or when they asked if he could swing by after school, which was hardly ever.
This was the first time he actually came over ever since he got his motorcycle.
"Izuku-Kun!" Mirio greeted the boy with a fist bump and a hug and Tamaki came over to give the greenette his own.
"Hey, Nejire-Chan! Happy birthday!" he opened his arms wide and the bluenette threw herself at the boy.
"Thanks Izu-Kun!" she gushed out, as she released him she grabbed the blue helmet clipped onto the backseat. "Wasn't this purple?" she questioned the boy.
"Well I actually bought several helmets; one for each of you." he admitted and Nejire giggled while Tamaki and Mirio shared a smile. "Whenever I know I'm going to give one of you a ride, I usually switch out the helmets." Nejire put the helmet on and climbed onto the vehicle and held onto the greenette.
"Well, see you guys at the laser tag place." Nejire waved goodbye to the duo as Izuku drove her home so she could get changed.
As they drove through traffic Nejire lightly commented beside his ear. "You know everybodys going to think you're my boyfriend now." Izuku slightly swerved and the girl giggled with laughter, hugging the younger boy tighter.
"You're really trying to kill me, aren't you?" Izuku questioned his periwinkle haired friend.
...
Toshinori looked over the mass destruction of the city with a proud glint in his eyes. "You've destroyed about a quarter of the city." Izuku looked up towards his sensei with a heavy breath and a large grin.
"You increased your overall control of One For All by two percent!" Toshinori patted the five foot and seven inch kid on the back. "You're only a week away from the entrance exam and kid, you're going to destroy the competition."
...
Izuku bowed to Arhi who bowed in return. "You've grown so much, my student. More than anyone could possibly have imagined!" the gray haired man smiled. "You will become a great Hero... Toshinori chose well." Izuku grinned with all his teeth.
"Take a quick shower, i'll treat you to a meal for your progress and hard work." he turned to his sweaty daughter who went several rounds with the greenette, "You too, my warrior princess." the orangette nodded with a small happy grin.
...
Ituska hugged Izuku close, feeling his uniform tightly hugging his body and rubbing against her own.
As he parked his bike on the other side of the main entrance of U.A. She quickly took off the orange helmet and clipped it onto the back of his motorcycle while Izuku set the alarm. "You ready?" Izuku asked and she nodded.
"Of course." she responded, with no crack in her voice which she was oddly proud of. They walked over to the large gates and walked through them.
After they walked through, the both of them stilled for a moment. Both have been here before but it seemed so different now, so much grander.
Izuku licked his lips and took a step when someone bumped into him. As he looked he saw it was the ash blonde Kacchan with a sneer on his face and he flinched slightly. "Watch it, Quirkless wonder." the red eyed boy quickly walked away, not sparring a second glance.
After a moment of hesitation, "See you in there Kacchan!" he exclaimed with a smile.
"Fuck you, Deku!" he immediately shot back.
"Who was that?" Itsuka scowled at the boy hearing the insult and wondered why Izuku didn't seem offended.
"An old friend... and probably a rival if I get in." Itsuka raised an eyebrow but shrugged before the nickname hit her.
"Did he call you, Deku?" she asked with anger in her voice.
"A nickname he made up when I was five." he smiled at simpler times while Itsuka's anger seemed to skyrocket.
"Let's get going! Don't want to be late." The greenette told the girl and they both began walking but after a few steps, Izuku tripped but suddenly stopped before his face could hit the ground.
For a moment he thought Itsuka caught him but he realized he was actually floating.
He looked up and saw a cute girl with short brown hair, a round face and two pink circles which resembled blushes on her cheeks. "Don't want to trip on the first day, now do we?" she asked with a light laugh and a bubbly voice.
Izuku swallowed. "No we don't." he answered back as he managed to get back up right, getting a surprised look from the short haired brunette.
Izuku saw her put her fingers together which each had a small pink pad on them and the greenette landed back on his feet. "I'm Uraraka Ochako! Nice to meet both of ya!" she stretched her hand and Izuku grabbed it in greeting.
"Midoriya Izuku and it's nice to meet you too." he shaked her hand, as they separated Ochako turned towards the orangette.
Itsuka, seeing the look Izuku was giving the brunette, stared at the girl for a moment before shaking her hand, a little bit tighter than she would have normally done.
"Kendo Itsuka." She forced her face into a smile.
"I hope I see you two later." The other girl waved goodbye and once she was out of ear shot, Izuku sighed, glad he didn't trip on the first day.
Looking at his friend, he saw the tight expression and wondered if she was alright.
Trying to ease the weird tension in the air, he decided to try and lighten it, "Wow, she was cute." Itsuka threw him a shocked stare, her tight shoulder dropping down. "I hope she's single." He said in a joking manner, something he would normally never say, Izuku saw that the girl was now completely loose and whatever was bothering her was probably no longer on her mind.
Calling it a victory, the greenette walked towards the testing area with a smile.
'What the fuck.' Itsuka thought to herself in disbelief as he followed the boy.
...
'A three hour test... my Kami.' Izuku thought to himself. 'I definitely passed though, knew every answer. I love One For All.' he thought to himself as he looked over the card he received along with his test that told him where he would go, after the speaker explained the basic rules of the practical exam.
The freckled teen looked around the auditorium and saw an open seat next to a blonde and punk rock hair-styled purplette with earphone jacks for earlobes.
A couple minutes passed as all the test takers tried to find their seats but once they did, the lights turned off and a spotlight hit the stage where the leather wearing man with bright blonde hair styled straight up and curved inwardly, was standing.
"Oh my Kami, it's Present Mic!" Izuku squealed silently, not noticing the amused looks from his seating companions. He began muttering quick facts about the blonde Hero before biting on his tongue stopping his habit.
Izuku quickly looked around him and saw the purple haired girl shoot him an amused look, Izuku snapped his head back in front. After a moment he looked to his other side and saw the blonde with the black lightning symbol in his hair looking slightly creeped out but also highly amused. 'Oh Kami, kill me!' The fifteen year old begged silently.
"Welcome party people! I hope all of you listeners are having a Hell of a time!" The speaker roared out towards the crowd and Izuku forgot all his embarrassment as he looked towards Present Mic. "Can I get a Hell yeah!" Izuku jumped up and down on his seat and channeled All Might, Mirio and Nejire.
"HELL YEAH!" Izuku stood up with both fists pumped out and the blonde pointed to him and gave a thumbs up, the both of them ignored the laughing of the other students.
"New favorite person!" Present Mic exclaimed. "If you get in, automatic 'A' for the year in my class!" Izuku laughed at the joke as he sat back down ignoring the giggling of the earphone girl and the chuckling of the blonde. "Now onto the serious stuff; This practical exam is graded by a point system which you receive by either destroying or incapacitating, what we call, villain bots." The large screen behind him came to life and was shown with four blank images of robots.
"You will be traveling throughout an urban setting where you will be forced to confront as many of these things as possible to earn a place at U.A! Each of these robots have different point totals which represent their difficulty level." The three images behind him gained color, revealing strikingly different robots that the students will fight, all three of them have a number representing them. "But the final villain bot is called the zero pointer and as the name suggests, it is worth nothing, so don't even try taking it on!" Present Mic exclaimed loudly, pointing high into the sky as the fourth image revealed itself to the audience.
"You have a total of ten minutes to gain as many points as possible! You're not allowed to fight with the other participants nor to subatogage them in any way! Now repeat to me my little listeners, these famous words of the French Hero; Napoleon Bonaparte, GO BEYOND!"
"PLUS ULTRA!" Izuku immediately copied the man who once again pointed to him as some of the test takers looked at the greenette in exasperation.
"I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE NOW!" Izuku blushed and laughed along with the man as the entire audience felt like rolling their eyes.
As he was walking away the short haired purplette taped him on the shoulder with one of her earphone jacks. "Hey, what you did was really stupid," Izuku face faulted for a moment and the girl once again giggled at his exaggerate action. "But brave. I was nervous out of my mind but seeing you yelling right along Present Mic the 'Famous Voice Hero' who ranked thirty five on the hero billboard chart and is the single greatest donator to the Japanese society to deaf children and has the most visits to children hospitals across japan' really calmed my nerves." she smugly smiled at the boy who looked at the ceiling.
"Why me, Kami? What have I done to you?" he asked and the short haired punk rocker along with the blonde laughed.
"Pay her no mind dude! She's only like this to people she finds interesting, so take it like a compliment." Izuku looked unsure and jumped back in surprise as one of the girl's earphone jacks Jammed into one of the blonde's ears, causing him to scream in pain and fall to the ground.
The purplette stepped up to the greenette who played slightly. " I'm Jirou Kyoka. Nice to meet you." Izuku looked at the hand and then at the girl before hesitantly shaking it.
"Midoriya Izuku." she nodded.
"Kaminari Denki." he raised his hand as he continued to lay on the floor and Izuku grabbed it and flung him to his feet. "Oh shit!" he exclaimed as his yellow eyes widened in surprise.
He looked at the greenette who was about an inch taller and smiled. "I'm guessing your Quirk has something to do with enhanced strength." he stated with a knowing look and Izuku blushed slightly.
"Yeah." he nodded and Kyoka gasped.
"You actually guessed right, Denki-Kun." her voice was dripping with sarcastic praise and the blonde blew a raspberry at her, the short haired purplette rolled her eyes at the childish act.
"Anyway, it was nice talking to you Midoriya-San. I hope we see more of you." Kyoka stated while Denki nodded with her in agreement.
"Nice meeting both of you too." Izuku easily stated as they both walked away.
...
Izuku stood with a group of students outside the gates of an empty city, wearing a short sleeve All Might t-shirt and black basketball shorts with his normal red shoes. 'This is it. This is the starting line.' He looked around and saw Ochako seemingly psyching herself up as she wore a black tracksuit with white patches on her breast area.
He thought about going over there for a moment but decided against it. 'Don't want to distract her.' he thought and took a breath.
"Go!" Izuku's eyes widened and saw Present Mic standing off to the side while the gates opened. "What are you waiting for?! Do you think villains give you a countdown before they begin their reign of terror!" He sarcastically asked, Izuku channeled One For All throughout every inch of his body and leaped above the now racing crowds.
'I'll make you proud, Toshinori-Sensei!' Izuku mentally exclaimed and angled his body towards a large, green robot that balances itself on a single wheel and had two incredibly large arms that reached almost to the ground, crushing it beneath his heels.
Izuku Midoriya received his first point against a one pointer.
