Chapter 1: Just Like Him

Even if Tomura might be a little extreme with his actions and opinions, he agrees with his take on most heroes.

Selfish rats.

9 out of 10 are fighting not for the people, the only requirement to be a good hero, but for fame, money or both. So far, all of them are the same, and all of the aspiring heroes aren't that much better.

He had found a couple of potential options, but he still wants to double check and turn all the rocks. He must find him again.

He had searched for almost two months now. Is he being too picky? Maybe. He was resting on a park bench late at night. He took out a small notebook where he had... 1 name.

Togata Mirio looks as the most promising from everyone he saw. He has qualities for what society considers a hero now at days and motivation to keep improving.

As he was reading and thinking, someone materialize behind him and placed a blade to his neck "Beat it. I'm busy." Izuku said not really caring about his attacker.

"No, no... you're being robbed. Now, give me all of value."

Izuku hummed "I will give you five seconds. Nothing more, nothing else."

The punk growled and was going to say something when a rock landed on his head. Izuku raised a brow as he starred at the purple haired kid. The punk growled "So... wanna play hero?"

The kid sweated "Do your worst." He challenged and the punk lunged at the kid and Izuku eyes glowed, the air went cold and, in a blink, he punched the throat of the delinquent, knocking him out.

The kid looked surprise as the guy just dropped cold "Is he-"

"No. But he will be asleep for a while now. And you, you could have died." Izuku said and the kid gulped at his stare.

"So could you! You were in more danger than I!"

"I had it under control. Now go home." Izuku ordered and the kid huffed.

"I can't... they locked the door." He said and Izuku raised a brow.

"Why?"

The kid rubbed the back of his head "Do you have time?"

And so, he met Hitoshi Shinso. A kid dreaming to be a hero but has a villain quirk, brainwashing. Hated by his parents, feared by the rest, he can share the feeling.

"I've been around a long time and I had been in many places. I know a thing or two about discrimination." Izuku started and Shinso smirked.

"You don't look that old." He said and Izuku huffed as he smirked.

"I'm 120 years old brat. Looks are deceiving." He laughed at his face.

"That's impossible. It would mean that you are from the first generation of quirk users!" Shinso accused and Izuku nodded.

"It would. 2014... Jesus that was a rough time, let me tell you."

Shinso still didn't believe him "What's your quirk?"

"My original quirk is 'Time Skip', it let me control my time and I managed to advance it to control time around me. That's why I look so young." Izuku explained and Shinso nodded slowly "I also have another's, but they are pretty basic, enhanced speed and strength and a couple more."

Shinso groaned "I can believe the time quirk, I guess, but the rest is kind of impossible."

Izuku smiled "I have a friend." He looked at his watch "Want to get breakfast?"

As they walked to a café, Izuku took his notebook and wrote down 'Hitoshi Shinso'.

Shinso was getting used to Izuku. When he met him a couple of days later outside of school and went to confront him, the old man just told him the truth.

"I think you can be a hero. But you need help."

And so, Shinso finally had someone that believed in him. Even if Izuku is... weird and out of touch, being 120 years old might do that, he is... nice.

"Do you like videogames?"

Izuku nodded as they walked to his home "I do. I remember once when me, Yoichi and Tomura got a PS4 and we cracked it." He smirked "I remember those two couldn't touch me on Tekken. I had a nasty Dragunov."

Shinso smirked "I bet you did Old Man, but I am more into Nintendo things. Like Mario and Pokémon."

Izuku smirked "Of course you are."

As they walked in comfortable silence, Shinso got a question "You always talk about Tomura and Yoichi. Are they still alive?"

Izuku closed his eyes "Tomura yes. Yoichi... kind of."

He stopped walking and Shinso starred at him "Izuku?"

"Yoichi has a quirk that can stack quirks and that can be passed down. A quirk named One for All. A quirk that I want you to have."

Shinso was taken back but that "A-Are you sure?"

Izuku patted his head and smiled "You remind me of him. Even when everything was against him, he still stood up and pull through. You help people, putting yourself in danger not waiting to be thanked, but out of the kindness in your heart."

"You... are just like him."

*Next Day*

Shinso was cleaning the dishes as his parents watched TV. Someone pressed the doorbell and his father grunted "Brat! Get it!"

Shinso sighed as he went the door. He opened to see Izuku wearing a suit and briefcase, looking like a secretary. "Hey Shinso, are your parents in?"

"Izuku? Yeah, they are here, why?"

Izuku nodded "I need to talk with them." He smiled "I have good news."

Shinso nodded as he walked in "Mom, Dad, this is-"

"Hello, my name is Izuku Midoriya, I work for All Might. And your son had caught his eye and would like him as an apprentice."

None of the family members said anything as his mother spoke "Is... is this true?"

Izuku opened the briefcase and handed her the letter "A document signed by All Might himself."

His dad still wasn't believing this "And you know his quirk? The harm it can do?"

Izuku frowned "We do. And we also know how useful it can be. Matter of fact, if you only see one side of the coin, that person brain might be heavily damaged."

Shinso gulped seeing his father growl "Are you calling me stupid?"

Izuku eyes glowed "What of it?"

"H-Honey... read this..." His mom interrupted and his dad saw the one part of the contract, Izuku knew they would fall for.

The payment.

If Hitoshi Shinso wishes for, the money gained as a hero will be shared with his parents or legal guardian.

As Izuku and Shinso walked away from the former house to never come back, Shinso carrying one bag full of his few belongings, Izuku took of his tie and opened the neck of his shirt. He threw the tie to a trashcan and sighed "Really nice people your folks."

"Thank you." Shinso said and Izuku raised a brow "Thank you for this chance."

Izuku smirked "It was nothing."

"I didn't know you worked for All Might."

Izuku snapped his tongue "I don't work for that idiot. I just used him this time to get you in a good place and to give you One for All."

Shinso eyes widen "All Might has One for All!?"

"Don't scream, and yes. Also, don't be disappointed once you meet him." he sighed and Shinso raised a brow.

"Why?"

"You'll see."
