I do not own My Hero Academia


Izuku yawned, he was so tired, he almost thought some of his tiredness from yesterday carried over to today, but he was quickly woken up once he stood in front of his school.

"Excuse me! Can you tell me what being taught by All Might is like!? And what about the lone student of 1-A!?" A loud Brunette all but calmly yelled at him, shoving a microphone into his face.

"Huh!? O-oh, I-I'm sorry but I… uhh… I gotta get to the infirmary!" Izuku quickly made up, suddenly very much aware of all the cameras pointed at him. All too eager to leave the media behind he quickly made his way through the human barricade onto U.A.'s school ground.

The female reporter growled as she looked at the quickly retreating back of the boy. None wanted to answer her questions! Either they were teachers who told them to leave, or students who didn't know better! She was broken out of her self-pity session when her camera man remarked that the kid who just left them behind looked an awful lot like Izuku Midorya.

She quickly thought about what the boy had looked like again…

First year? Check.

Green, curly hair? Check.

Green eyes and admittedly cute little freckles dotting his face? Once more, check.

'Oh shi-'

"H-HEY, WAIT UP. MISTER MIDORYA, PLEASE ANWSER SOME OF OUR QUESTIONS." She attempted to pursue, but was quickly blocked by multiple black steel barriers popping up out of the ground.

"W-what the hell!?" Her colleague quickly filled her in.

"That's the U.A. Barrier, at least, that's what we call it. There's no getting past that." He said.

"Are you serious!? We only want them to answer some of our questions!" the woman sighed exasperatedly.


Izuku was once again in his safe, albeit empty, classroom. His homeroom teacher was muttering somethings about what was on the planning but Izuku ignored it mostly. The only thing really standing out was when Izuku vaguely heard his teacher mutter something about a class president, look up at Izuku, look down again and scribbled something down on some forms. Weird.

But no matter what, school will be school, and soon Izuku was being taught once more how to be a hero.

When the bell rang signaling lunch, Izuku realized it was time for something he equally was looking forward to as well as dreading.

'Socializing time…'

He needed to make some friends. He couldn't go his entire school career without at least some to sit with! The sooner the better, as waiting would only make it more difficult to make friends, and he feared that him blacking out yesterday would not help this situation.

Finally he stood in front of the lunch room's entrance and swallowed nervously.

He entered, grabbed some lunch and wandered around a little. There was a constant stream of chatter around him, forming together as a single wail of noise. However, Izuku could still hear the occasional mention of his name, and he caught a couple people staring. Only now did he realize how much his lone student status would sabotage his social life.

All of a sudden he realized he was staring at a person, and that person had caught him staring. Quickly he looked away, saw an empty seat and sat down there putting his lunch tray on the table.

As he looked ahead of him he realized he was staring at somebody else once more. Thinking quickly he forced out a quick "H-hello".

The person in front of him simply continued to stare as he replied. "Uhh… hi… I guess."

Izuku promptly smashed his head into the table out of embarrassment. The fact that he, instead of hitting the table, face planted into his lunch wasn't helping.


Shinso wasn't sure what was happening. One moment he was enjoying his lunch and the next moment the famous lone student from 1-A at in front of him and smashed his face into his lunch.

Feeling a painfully awkward silence come up he decided to continue upon his earlier greeting.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm not." The wild bush of dark green curls spoke up. The student got his face out of his food, wiped it clean and looked around. "Are you?"

Slightly insulted, Shino reacted. "Of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?"

Green eyes looked at him. "Well, we're having the same problem. We're both alone." The hero-to-be said, gesturing at the empty seats.

At first Shinso was ready to defend his loneliness before he realized the greenette was right, he was sitting alone after all. So instead he went another way. "So? It's always been like this, I don't need anyone." He spat.

The greenie in front of him looked hesitant at first, before sitting straight with a shock and sending him a beaming smile. "D-do you wat to be friends?" Green eyes looked at him in a hopeful manner.

"No"

His unwanted lunch buddy promptly deflated. "O-oh..." and the awkward silence returned as Shinso continued eating. Sometimes throwing a quick peek at his neighbor. 'Why?' Shinso questioned. 'Why did he have to sit at my table? At least he's eating his lunch now and not trying to wear it as a mask.'

He was getting annoyed at the green pest's insistence of staying as opposed to just leaving after sufficiently humiliating himself. Why couldn't this guy just leave him alone? The frustration build up until it finally hit its peak and Shinso decided it was time for the greenette to leave.

"Must be nice to have such a powerful quirk."

He almost hit himself, and did so mentally. 'NO! I wanted this guy to leave, not strike up an ideological discussion! I don't even know what his quirk is!'

The greenette however, looked up at him and hummed. "I suppose, although it's not perfect. It's difficult to control. But hey, I am a late bloomer after all."

Shinso quirked an eyebrow. 'Late bloomer? What did that have to do with anything? Getting your quirk at six or at four shouldn't make a lot of difference.' He decided to voice his thoughts.

Izuku chuckled nervously. "Well, uhh, I didn't get my quirk at four, five, six or even seven." Not that he hadn't hoped at those ages that he'd still get a quirk. He wanted to be a hero so badly he'd always clung to false hope. "I got mine about half a month back or so."

The wild-haired boy chocked on his breath. 'Half a month!? The entrance exam was half a month back! And you have to enroll into U.A. several months before that. Did this guy think he was quirkless while he signed himself up for that? Or did he already know he'd get his quirk before then?' he was shaken out of his thoughts when the hero course student continued.

"Talking about quirks, what's yours?"

'Ooh boy, here we go.'

"Brainwashing, I can put someone who verbally reacts to what I say under hypnosis and make them do what I want."

The hero-to-be's eyes widened.

'Here it comes.'

"That's awesome!"

'What?'

"Just imagine! Being able to talk villains down, or get hostages to be released with the greatest ease! You'd be an amazing hero!" Izuku instantly realized his slip-up. "Err, I mean, if you want to be."

Shinso was… quite surprised to be honest. When he'd thought about the only student in 1-A yesterday morning he imagined a cocky twat, filled to the brim with overconfidence because he was supposedly the best of the best, what with 1-A being seen as the betters of the heroics course. Then, after their first meeting he hadn't been sure what to think of him, but it wasn't exactly positive.

But to be the first to actually say he could be hero after he found out Shinso's quirk?

Shinso was spooked out of his thought process by a screeching alarm. He could only wonder out loud what was going on as every student in the lunch hall started rushing the emergency exits.

"It's a type 3 alarm." A nearby older student helpfully supplied. "It means there are intruders on the school grounds, I've never experienced it before though."

Izuku and Shinso decided it was better to follow suit and head towards the exit as well. Problem was, the hallway leading to the exit was incredibly cramped with panicking students. It would take forever for them to get out of here.

Izuku sighed, this could take some time.


Izuku was brimming with excitement! Even though he was 15 minutes late to class because of the alarm his homeroom teacher was 20 minutes late. After he came in he told Izuku to put on his hero costume and meet him outside the building.

Once the bunny dressed boy was outside Aizawa told him to enter the bus the green haired boy hadn't seen yet and they quickly drove off.

Once inside the bus the homeroom teacher explained what would happen.

U.S.J. would happen! Izuku couldn't wait. This was why he'd wanted to become a hero. Saving people.

After a couple of minutes in the bus Izuku realized something.

"uhh… sir? Isn't there a class 1-B?" he asked.

Aizawa, not bothering to take his head out of his improvised pillow of bandages answered. "Yes, why?"

"Well… shouldn't I have practical lessons with them?"

Aizawa groaned but still got his head out of his capture gear and looked at Izuku. "I can see why you would think that, but 1-A and 1-B have always been rivalling classes, and therefore will not work together apart from class vs class fights."

"Oh, I see, well- WAIT, class vs class fights!? I'll have to fight against 1-B at one point!?" as Izuku was having his own little mental breakdown the grumpy pro hero turned his back to his pupil.

'That and the principals curiosity about what would happen if one student is mentored by a bunch of pro heroes without any other kids to distract them. For an ex-lab rat he sure does love experimenting.'


Finally they arrived at the U.S.J. Izuku looked at it with stars in his eyes before noticing a not so far off figure in a space suit.

'The here 13! With his Black Hole Quirk he can create a vortex that turns anything it sucks into dust! The Quirk is activated by releasing the fingertips on-'

Izuku was swatted over the head by a grumpy Aizawa and told to hurry up and stop day dreaming. The red eared boy quickly went up the steps onward to his exciting, but of course, safe saving training.


[A/N] Another chapter down. Like it? Hate it? lemme know.

This one was a bit more passive and not much happened but I felt like I had to post something, also it's not as big as I thought due to me deciding it was better after all to this part and the usj attack in separate chapters.

Next chapter USJ attack. I'm looking forward to it, but my schedule is being kind of a pain in the ass right now. So we'll see when that happens.

Review reaction time:

duskrider chapter 3 . Dec 9

I wonder if any member of class 1 b was also expelled if so than maybe you could move Shinso there.

Nah, I don't think Vlad is the kind of guy to expel his own students so quickly.

camdawg chapter 3 . Dec 9

I know this is a long way down but when Todoroki comes into the story, will he still be just using his ice as izuku was the one to convince him to use his fire

Wouldn't you like to know?

You'll have to read the rest of my fic to figure out, and who knows, if my schedule will allow it you'll find out within the next 10 years.
