A/N: I haven't done a fanfic like this before (usually just smaller POV's) so thanks for reading this! Also, I wanted to say that the name of chapter 2 was a reference to bakugos moms name, have a plus ultra-day! THIS IS NOT BAKU/DEKU
Chapter 1Gravity Girl
Izuku stood horrified as a massive robot came towards him; making nearly evreyone but the gravity girl run for their lives. The poor gravity girl was in danger… what could he even do?
"I'm so stupid… Kachan was right... id die in the exam… I guess heroes realy can't be quirk less."
Before He could even think Izuku's body moved for him, just like it did when he saved Kachan from the sludge villain. He widened his stride and was suddenly running faster than ever, he had to at least try of this girl life was at risk… he couldn't take another heartbreak. He noticed a small hatch; without thought he ran and hurled open the door and punched the circuits and wires as hard as he could but to his suprized his whole arm hardened as hard a diamonds.
"Whats going on?! Am I like that red haired boy?!" he thought to himself. "CRAP IM GONNA DIE IF THIS ROBOT DOSNT GET MESSED UP"
He continued to punch the cords repeatedly; despite making his hand bleed heavily. When suddenly his arm turned into an ooze like liquid immediately making the cords begin to spark then start profusely smoking. The shadow from the machine slowly cleared as the robot creaked backwards then landing hard enough to blow Izuku backwards
"IM GOING TO DIE WHAT DO I DO?!" Izuku thought in panic as he flew backwards
A soft hand then slapped his cheek making it go bright pink int eh shape of the hands then suddenly he stayed floating to be at eye level with... gravity girl! Who looked pale and about to faint. Izuku kicked his legs and wave his arm and managed to grab onto the platform gravity girl was laying on.
"I'm allright, release your quirk!" Izuku said in a hurried panic.
The girl struggled to nod at him then released them both with a large thump. The girl immediately gagged and tried to hold vomit in but failed miserably. Izuku felt bad so he held back the girls short brown hair, trying to be helpful to her.
A loud and enthusiastic announcer came up saying "ALLLLLRIGHTTT LISTENERS THE PRACTICAL EXAM IS OVERRRRR, RECOVERY GIRLS QUICK MEDIC TENT IS ON THE RIGHT NEXT TO THE ENTRANCE HEAD OVER IF NEEDED; YEAH!"
"Do you want to head over to recovery girls tent or are you allright? Izuku said very concerned for the poor girl.
"I'm fine" she said thankfully looking up at him trying realy hard to smile. "B- but your hand! Its bleeding!" she said
Izuku looked back to his hand dripping blood with cuts that looked like cracks all over. "Yeah that's... probably a good idea" he said with nervous laughter. Izuku helped the girl down from the hunk of metal and continued to walk over as the pain in his arm slowly grew worse and worse to and unfathomable point
"Whats going on with my arm?! How bad did I mess it up?!" he thought to himself.
"Oh dear! Honey, it looks like you cut a vein my goodness get over here your going to need a stitch or two" Recovery girl said staring at his blood soaked arm.
Izuku put his hand out for Recovery girl to give a big sweet kiss to his hand melting the blood and pain away.
"O-Oh gosh I'm tired" he said suddenly holding his hand
"My quirk speeds up the healing prosses… that takes a lot of energy" she said somewhat annoyed that Midoriya hadn't allready guessed that.
"Oh- wow that's amazing ma'am! Thank you so much for healing me!" Izuku said smiling and holding onto his now flawless arm.
"Now go home! Why are you still here?!" Recovery girl scolded.
Izuku immediately rushed out with gravity girl following on his heels.
"Hey, whats your name again? Are you doing anything after this? Gravity girl asked
"Oh- I'm Izuku Midoriya but my… friend calls me Deku and you?" he said
"I'm Ochako Uruaka!" she said beaming with a smile… she looked like a strawberry mochi with a massive bubbly grin. "Do you think… we could hang out after This?" she said
Izuku knew he had nothing to do at home and no one to go to… All might crushed him, and his mother had passed away. "Y-yeah sure"
Uruaka smiled at him and started to walk back through where they came in and walked through the auditorium and right out, in the sun light bright doors and out on the pavement coved in fallen cherry blossoms on the ground.
"Maybe I could be a hero…" He thought happily to himself
Chapter 2Nobody, nobody, nobody
Uruaka had to stop at her home to get changed into a better outfit and tell her parents where she planned to be. Izuku walked in his empty home to all might in his skinny form sitting at the dining table.
"WHAT THE HECK KID?! YOUR ALL OVER THE NEWS WHY WOULD YOU GO IN QUIRKLESS?!" all might rebuked.
Izuku's blood boiled; no one had ever had faith in him before and his mother was just plain worried. Everyone told him he couldn't expect those who didn't know… but when he believed in himself everything worked out fine.
"I GAVE IT MY ALL… I REALY THOUGHT YOU'D BE PROUD OF ME"
Izuku's eyes started to wield up in hot tears
"IVE TRIED SO HARD JUST TRYING TO LIVE AND YOUR SCOLDING ME FOR GIVING MY DREAM A SHOT?"
Inko had always worried with all of the emotions the poor kid held; in one day he'd snap like this… but this time there was no support she could give from heaven.
"IM GOING TO BE A HERO WEATHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT ALLMIGHT" Izuku began to scream
"YOUR GOING TO GET YOURSELF KILLED" All might continue to yell
"I GOT A QUIRK; IS THAT WHAT YOU NEEDED TO HEAR? IT TOOK NOT BEING HEILD BACK TO DICOVER THAT AFTER 10 MISRABLE YEARS. ARE YOU HAPPY?" Izuku saw red and could have punched all might but just simply didn't have the energy or will in him.
All might stood speechless for a moment until finally shouting "IF YOU DIE- ITS NOT MY FAULT"
"IT WOULNDT BE FROM A LACK OF SMARTS OR TRYING" Izuku said with piercing eyes and a somewhat determined glare. With his hands in fists.
All might stood with his hand still in contact with the back of his chair; staring into Midoriya's infuriated eyes, unable to find a good response; until he finally just marched out the door in a storm. Part of Midoriya couldn't believe what he just said, while the other half was glad, he was getting some closure to the worlds disproval him.
A hard knock came on the door; followed by a "DEK- MIDORYA I NEED TO TALK TO YOU" from an angry blonde.
"Did you come to yell at me?" Midoriya said
"N-no" Katusuki said with a very troubled and obviously upset expression. "M-my parents… there gone"
"Katsuki continued with "There d- dead" he said with his voice cracking "A villain hurled a car at them walking in town… they passed away in the hospital just before I could see them.
Deku was heart broken to hear that; Bakugo has never been so upset… and coming to him of all pepole. "Come inside, come get some tea" Izuku said trying to comfort him.
Deku poured tea for the both of them as Bakugo sat on the couch in tears still trying to fully process the passing of both of his parents; its so much to handle… no matter how tough and rough he was, Bakugos still just a kid. Izuku gave him the warm tea and a blanket; then turning on the fireplace as he noticed rain was suddenly pouring down.
"I have no where to go" Bakugo softly said to himself
"It's all right… this is selfish of me to say but I- if you could try being nice to me and know I'm NOT trying to surpass you then… y- you could stay here with me…" Izuku said feeling horrible for him with memories of his sick mother in a hospital bed.
"Thank you… Izuku" Bakugo managed to muster up
"Any time Katsuki" Izuku said; happy that Bakugo was being kind to him for once… maybe he had someone by his side…
"Hello? Deku? Can I come in?" a joyful Ururaka said at the door.
"Sure, come on in Uruaka!" Deku shouted through from the living room; then getting up from his chair to greet her. "And really quick… my best friend is here going through some hard times, it came up realy quick but still feel free to come in or leave." Izuku whispered so Katsuki couldn't hear.
"Oh-its okay is it allright if I know what happened or no?" she said with a cutely concerned face
"His parents passed away today…" Izuku said looking down at his feet.
"Oh, that's awful…! Maybe we could do something to get his mind off of it...?" Uruaka said with little regard for Midoriya's personal space. And her hand on her chest.
"that's a good idea! I know a spot he wouldn't mind going!" Izuku said then promptly jogging to the living room "Hey Kachan! Get up were going somewhere!"
"Where? And who's that?" Bakugo said ruefully
"This is Uruaka from the entrance exam and were going to a suprize place" Midoriya said with a gentle and warm smile.
"Oh… okay" Bakugo said.
Izuku felt a hole in his heart to see his childhood friend so sad… and calm; it was the exact opposite of his personality. Bakugo handed Izuku his coat left at the door. It was a small act, but it made Midoriya smile unfathomably big seeing the honest effort he was putting in.
The trio began to walk to where only Midoriya knew. Passing by a hundred or more shops and little stands; as the rain continued to pour. Bakugo looked up to see the clouds and wind grow more intense; but to Uruaka and Midoriya's suprize; he smiled. Bakugo put down his hood immediately drenching his dirty blonde hair, then put his burnt and rough palms to be cooled by the downpour. Izuku smiled seeing his somewhat pleased expressoin from the rain helping his injuries.
"Oh! This is it! Kachan have you been here before? They specialize in spicy ramen." Izuku said as he opened the door to the cute; homey little shop.
"No, I haven't… spicy you said?" Bakugo said with his hands in his jacket pockets, looking around the store.
Evreyone excitedly looked at the menu
Shin Ramen $12.50
Tangahatsu ramen $13.00
Dynamite ramen $15:00 (extreme spice warning)
--
BOBA
Strawberry
…
And more, Bakugo immediately hurried over to the counter, to order a cinnamon explosion drink along with the Dynamite ramen.
Uruaka asked for just a strawberry boba tea and Izuku got the matcha tea with shin ramen.
After Izuku paid for evreyone order they all sat at sevral wood hand crafted barstools lined up to the window. Evreything was so peaceful with the warm feeling of ramen in Midoriya's stomach with the cool feeling of the rain all over him. Katsuki looked less sullen but more at peace now… like the rain slowly washing off his burden of his parents. Each one of the pepole sitting at that table had lost something or felt some sort of fear that felt like evreything was over for them, but they had eachother… and at that's all that mattered
Chapter3PHASE SHIFT
"Ive probably gotta head home now, thanks for the food, Deku! And Bakugo you seem realy nice; I guess were all a little more aggressive when we're fighting! I hope we can hang out again soon!" Uruaka said putting her coat back on and walking out he restaurant door.
Bakugo looked incredibly flattered by her comment and then began to look realy emotional.
"Kachan? Are you okay?" Izuku said tilting his head like a puppy.
"y- yeah I'm fine" he said wiping his wet eyes with his sleeve.
"D-do you want to head back to the house?" Izuku said with uncertainty not knowing the best way to help Bakugo with his emotions.
Bakugo nodded and they both walked out with empty bowls. The walk was surreal having Bakugo act so calm and sensitive. Izuku couldn't think of anything to say to him, and Bakugo just stayed silent.
"Do you wanna get your stuff today or tomorrow?" Midoriya asked
"Ill run over for some of it today and get the rest later." He replied.
Bakugo walked out of the door again to head back to his home. Izuku went to his mothers now empty room asides from the bed, nightstand, dresser, and a bookcase. Izuku began to take off the floral blankets and pillows putting them in the closet and cleaning evreything up. He then began to vacuumed the carpet.
"Midoriya I'm back" Katsuki called from the door.
"Oh! Kachan your rooms read- "Izuku cut himself off to see Bakugo with a large backpack absolutely stuffed and, two duffle bags and a pillow wedged between his arm and hip.
"where's my room" Bakugo asked casually, despite bearly being able to keep all the luggage in his arms. Izuku nervously pointed towards the room; now seeing that katsuki re-gained his threatening glare. Deku finaly realized that the eye piercing look Kachan allways gave wasn't necessarily intentional.
"You need help with anything?" Izuku said with his head peeking past the door frame.
"I got it" Bakugo said now seeming happier "also I wanted to tell you something" Bakugo said looking up at him
"W-what is it Kachan" Izuku said feeling the Anxiety kick back in.
"I think Deku might not be a bad hero name… after today whatever I saw… I don't care if you had a quirk or not at this point… it took my parents to realize that your not worthless" Bakugo gave a determined smile then said "DANG IT DEKU I DON'T CARE IF WERE SWITCHING BETWEEN 1 AND 2 EVREY DAY WERE GONNA BE HEROS"
What Bakugo said touched Izuku's heart making him sob then say through his chocked up voiced "thank you so much and l- lets be heroes!"
"SO, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Bakugo yelled with an obvious amount of over motivation.
Bakugo grabbed Izuku's arm and pulled him up from sitting on the floor and said "If we end up with the scarf teacher, I don't want you getting expelled becase your arms keep melting all over the place so… I guess we better start training"
Izuku looked back up at him with strong determination in his eyes then nodded. A smirk grew on the blondes face and you could tell, those two were going to be heroes together if it killed them.
[ONE WEEK LATER AT THE QUIRK DOCTOR]
"Hello?" Izuku said nervously
"LOSEN UP ALLREADY" Bakugo yelled
"What can I do for you two nut jobs?" a tall slim nursed asked with annoyance.
"Well, my quirk developed realy late and I cant quite figure out what it is…" Izuku said looking down at his arms.
"allright" she said with a sigh "come with me"
Bakugo and Izuku followed into a large padded white room that looked like a prison cell.
"Allright go ahead and use your quirk" she said
Izuku started clenching his fists, but nothing happened.
"Hey Midoriya... think of something hard" Bakugo said
Izuku nodded to him and began to think of the red haired boy from the entrance exam and how his skin would turn stiff and then suddenly his arms went hard but now he's unable to move his fingers… Izuku released it. He then began to think of his legs turning into rock hard boards untill finaly his legs hardened into pure solid! Then Izuku realized he couldn't move his legs, so he just awkwardly twisted to look at the nurse and Bakugo then said "They also turn to liquid"
"Good to know… on the topic could you try thinking of gas? Like think of letting air of a balloon…" the nurse said looking back and forth between her clipboard and Izuku. "And also try to focus that back into your arm again and then release then go to your legs; that worked well."
Izuku took a deep breath then slowly breathing out untill little partials of his arms came apart untill it all turned to a more controllable gas he could actualy move, it was so odd becase his arms stiff felt normal to move but just... a little different.
"Allright, I think that's all I need to know, your quirk is Phase shift, you can change your body between, solid, liquid, and gas. Now I'm going on my lunch break have fun." The nurse said then turned on her heels and left.
Bakugo and Izuku looked at eachother in confusion still processing the information untill Izuku finaly said "YES I HAVE AN AWSOME QUIRRKKKK"
Chapter 4That's what Hero's do…
"HEY DYNAMIGHT ON YOUR LEFT" Deku yelled to Bakugo
"IM WORKING ON IT" Bakugo yelled looking at Deku while blindly blowing up a villain. "URAVITY- "he yelled then grabbed Uravitys wrist pulling her towards him. Dynamite nodded at her then they both said " GROUND ZERO" charging a massive all might size attack the consisted of Uravity floating some rubble, Bakugo launching small explosions into the ground then Uruaka once again would float the new pieces bearly upwards untill Bakugo tossed Uravity into the air further to protect her then using the new channels made by the floating rubble; Bakugo would make a battle ending and absolutely devastatingblast.
"Thank you for your work ground zero! Did Deku come out allright? One of the police asked Bakugo and Uruaka walking back
"Is that a joke?" Bakugo said looking the officer dead in the eye
"N-no sir" The officer said scared by the hero's glare. Bakugo reminded many pepol of Endeavor becase he was a hero and all, but his eyes could kill a nomu.
"Theres no way Deku aint coming out of that, that's a crap question to ask of all things" Bakugo said then walked away to go talk to his friend when he saw… Deku's head nearly being crushed by a Nomu. Just like Eraser head back when they went to UA. Without thought Bakugo ran as fast as he could to help his best friend. When suddenly another Nomu came to clobber him back down to the ground…. He tried to blast him but the mass of the Nomu left him as useless. As Bakugo grew angrier at himself a sudden wave of acid and electricity covered the crater left in the ground. The duo wondered how they were left untouched when Bakugo saw a shield of Sero's tape protecting him and for Deku, Red ryot had heaved the Nomu on its side; now acting as a shield to Deku.
Mina and Denki stood gallantly together at the top up the crater!
"Oi Kachan! You think your class would forget bout you?" Denki said jokingly as he ran over to help the injured Bakugo
"KAMINARI HURRY THIS UP KIRA CANT BABYSIT THE KIDS FOR THAT LONG" Jiro snapped at Denki.
"Okay, Okay!" Denki said laughing.
Bakugo gave a gentle smile to see his class mates again.
"Thanks, Kirishima!" Deku said with a warm grin; despite the fact that he was bleeding from the head and arms along with a massive gash in his stomach that can be clearly seen past his ripped up costume.
"Woah man!" Kirishima exclaimed noticing Deku's wound; then picking him up.
Izuku's eyes looked somewhat glossed over, with dirty green and black hair was getting in his face. Kirishima could hear with shallow breathing as he ran towards the ambulance.
"Kirishima-… watch your hand on my back…" Izuku said in a quiet raspy voice; then turning his injury and a little more into gas. "That should make sure I don't bleed out… my quirk c-cuts off blood f-flow to the area I'm u-using it."
"Good thinking!" Kirishima said looking rapidly between Izuku and the ambulance.
Deku slipped out of consciousness as he was strapped down to a stretcher. Dynamite, managed to slip into the ambulance with Izuku to ride to the hospital. As Bakugo looked through the back window, he saw almost 20 cars of paparazzi following.
"Come on Deku… please get it together and live for those poor kids looking up to you-." Katsuki said obviously upset by Izuku being in such bad condition.
Izuku bearly opened his eyes to muster "Of course I will… that's what hero's do" he said then smiled gently, then closing his eyes again.
THE END
