Opening his eyes, Izuku is blinded by bright whiteness and as he clenches his eyes shut in reaction, he attempts to lift his arm in front of his face, but strains pointlessly as it painfully barely lifts, causing a grunt of pain to escape his mouth as he does so, "Ugh, what did I do this time?" Izuku questions as he tries to sit up in his comfy white bed but to little award as he only strains himself more causing him to wince in response, "It must have been bad, I can barely move." Izuku complains as his brow furrows in irritation due to his immobile state.
"Izuku, your awake!" Came a loud, excited, and nostalgic voice.
"Huh?" confusedly sounds Izuku as he turns his head to the side to see a blond-haired bullet shoot towards him, before giving a tight, warm, and welcome, but painful hug. "Hey Himiko" grunts Izuku as he smiles happily.
Izuku feels the arms around him tighten, "You really need to stop being so reckless" Himiko softly says in Izuku's ear as she holds him.
"I'm sorry" Izuku softly says sincerely, as he continues to smile happily, closing his eyes and enjoying the warmth.
…
"But, can you please let go? this kind of hurts" Izuku winces regretfully.
As Himiko recedes with a pout the door slides open revealing a small, old, unpleased but wise looking woman wearing a doctor's coat and a stethoscope around her neck "And that'd be your own damn fault" displeasingly she admonishes.
Izuku's eyes widen in recognition "Oh hey recovery girl" Izuku gleefully greets.
"Don't address me so casually" The old women reprimands as she uses her syringe shaped walking stick to lightly hit Izuku on the head, "Anyway, its good your awake, so, how much do you remember?" she askes with less personal displeasure and more professionalism.
Izuku closes his eyes, trying to remember the events leading to him collapsing, and successfully does so, but groans in response when he feels a headache begin to pound on his head "Ugh, most of what happened I think." Izuku's grumbles as he wrinkles his nose in displeasure, "I remember the exam, a giant weird robot trying to squish me and someone else, and that I zipped around the place trying to help the same person get points, then passing out on the concrete." Izuku lists as he feels he's forgetting an important detail, then his eyes shoot open in remembrance "Oh! Also, that I broke my arm, thanks for healing that by the way" Izuku thanks with a grateful smile.
"I didn't heal you." Recovery girl sharply says without looking up from the chart she was reading.
"Huh?" Izuku sounds in surprise, "Then who did?" he asks curiously
"you did." She stated bluntly while walking over to a desk where she sifted through a pile of neatly stacked papers, "if I had tried to heal you, you could have been put in a coma" she said simply while still continued to search, "You had too little energy for me to heal you" she clarified
Izuku's eyes furrowed in confusion, "But I don't remember healing myself" he mumbled while trying to recollect if he actually had.
"That's because you did it unconsciously" she informed having seemingly found the paper she was looking for.
Izuku's eyes widened in surprise "Wait, really?" he asked in astonishment
"Yes, although it seems significantly less effective than your conscious ability" she explained sitting in front of her computer, "As shown by your remaining fatigue and soreness" she exemplified as she began to type on her keyboard while looking between the paper and her computer screen.
As Izuku smiled with glee, Himiko sighed dramatically, "Aww, why do you keep getting all the new and cool abilities" she solemnly pouted.
Izuku giggled in response to Himiko's reaction, but quickly regretted it as it hurt to do so "don't worry, I'm sure there's still things that your quirk can still offer" Izuku
"You're just saying that" the envious girl said disbelievingly
"No" he said firmly while shaking his head, "I'm sure of it!" he encouraged boldly, looking to Himiko's pouting face with an uplifting smile, "We just gotta figure it out" he further encouraged.
"You think so?" Himiko questioned with disappearing doubt with an overly dramatic puppy eye look.
"I know so" he softly encouraged while smiling confidently.
Himiko swiftly smiled joyfully as she began to giggle, "He, he~, thanks!" she cheered as she once again enveloped Izuku in a hug, winding him as she held tightly.
"Ow, still hurts" Izuku groaned.
Himiko quickly let go, and as she looked back at Izuku to make sure he was okay, they paused looking at each other before breaking out into a fit of giggles and laughter
Recovery girl slowly got up from her chair and with a pile of papers in hand began to leave walking to the infirmary door, "Anyway, I'll leave you two for now since I doubt you could move much, let alone walk, but I want you gone within the hour, you understand?" she said looking at Izuku with a soft but stern wrinkled face.
Smiling Izuku nodded, "Okay, thank you!" he said gratefully and in attempt to wave goodbye, barley lifted his arm and caused a shot of pain to run through him, getting a wince in response and a chuckle from Himiko.
The door slid shut and with a click, the room fell silent.
The click gave Izuku a slight heart attack, but no one needed to know about that
Izuku turned his head towards Himiko, noticing how her bright blond hair clashed beautifully against the white room, "Anyway, how was your exam?" he asked out of curiosity
"I thought you'd never ask!" Himiko excitedly exclaimed as she smiled brilliantly, "Well…" she said trailing of and tapping a finger to her chin thoughtfully, before widening her eyes, smiling excitedly and raising her hand with her finger pointed up in a moment of knowing and remembrance, "I had fun!" she shouted joyously.
Izuku sighed amusedly, "of course you did…"
Himiko was in front of a large iron gate in a thick crowd as she hopped in place, amped up for the coming exam that she was restlessly waiting to begin. Looking around there were easily tens, if not hundreds of examinees, none to much more unique that the last. Bright blue skin, a crab claw for a hand, hair that was made of lush thorny green vines, a girl with four arms, floating clothes, none too unique or interesting.
Himiko began to get bored as she continued to wait for the signal of the begging exam, and as she sighed exasperatedly, she suddenly felt something knock into her leg, and then heard a thump from the same direction.
Looking down to her left Himiko saw a short boy with a head of purple as he sat on the ground likely having fallen over after knocking into her leg.
As the boy looks up his face lights up red as he blushes from embarrassment, "U-uh, I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean t-to walk into you" the boy apologises while looking elsewhere with his eyes, as he continues to blush.
Himiko smiles happily as she offers a hand, "that's alright, don't worry about it! do you need some help?" she cheerfully asks while still holding out her hand,
The boy looks back noticing the hand, but points his gaze down, "N-no thanks, I-I'm good" he stutters nervously as he begins to get off the ground then dust himself.
Himiko rescinds her hand and looks to the kid, curious as to why he was walking around without looking where he was going, but before she can ask, she notices the kid fidgeting as if he wants to ask something himself, "do you wanna ask something?" Himiko asks curiously
The boy twiddles his fingers as he shifts in place, "u-um, I'm not sure when the exam will begin, a-and I wanted t-to know if y-you knew?" the purple orb headed boy asked anxiously.
"oh, I'm sorry, I don't know either" Himiko apologises as she looks down to the boy feeling bad for not being able to help, "Actually, I'm not sure anyone does, aside from the teachers, so don't worry too much" she remarks thoughtfully with a soft smile on her face, in an attempt to make the shaking boy not feel as pressured.
"o-oh, okay, I'm s-sorry for bothering you" the apologises as he bows before hurriedly leaving and making his way to the front of the crowd, all while with his head down.
Himiko quickly realised why the boy was moving through the crowd with his head down. It was because his height was at the perfect point to were if he were to look up, he'd see directly under the skirts of all the girls present, and even if it inconveniences him, even though the girls would never know that he had seen, he still decides to look downward to respect the privacy of the people there, even if it made doing things harder. Inwardly Himiko felt bad for the unfortunately short boy that sincerely meant no true harm.
"BEGIN"
But that was her que to run, and so she did. Swiftly weaving her way through the crowd that didn't seem to expect the sudden beginning, Himiko made her way to the front, where she began to run full pelt into the concrete city through the now open giant iron gates.
Further ahead though, Himiko could see the easily recognisable short purple headed boy as already he ran down the main street of the city that Himiko hadn't even entered, making her realise that the reason he was walking through the crowd earlier, was so he could get a head start.
Sadly, it was made painfully obvious how bad he needed the head start as Himiko blitzed past the boy who could run nowhere as fast as the speed and agility trained girl, with his short lacking legs.
Himiko continued to run forward but taking one last peek behind her showed the boy turning down a side street, and the large crowd that had been left behind finally begin to run.
Looking forward Himiko spotted her first victim as she began to run faster towards it. Usually, she would have gone down the alleyways or houses and stealthily destroyed or deactivated the robots, but that would have been slow, and she had a much faster way of dealing with them.
Quickly coming up on the first robot Himiko narrowly dodged a swinging metal plated, gatling gun holding arm, but as she duck under it, she moved forward into its guard and grappled the arm, then transformed and ripped it off then with a smooth motion spun around with the arm and smashed it into the back of the head of the robot, crunching the head inward, causing it to collapse to the ground broken.
If you're wondering what Himiko transformed into, to allow her to tear metal from metal, well, depending on if she drinks the blood of Izuku when he's in his human form or his fighter form, she can turn into them. It was a rather surprising discovery, but apparently when Izuku transforms, it affects his blood, bone structure, muscle mass, ect. so when she drank the blood of the different form, it was like she was drinking the blood of a different entity, allowing her to transform into it. Sadly though, she couldn't transform into Izuku's evolved form, because whenever she tried, she'd be unable to do so.
But, she could turn into Izuku's fighter form, giving her great strength, so not only does she have high agility and speed but also strength as well, not to mention the skill she got from training with Izuku at that dojo for so many years.
Anyway, explanation over. It's time for the true fun to begin…
- Nightcore - Reckless (Lyrics) -
Running down the street Himiko spotted two more unsuspecting toys, two "one pointers" and a single "two pointer" which had her giggling with joy as she had a plan to deal with them. Closing in on the two pointer, it predictably lashed its sharp tail out at Himiko, but closely twirling around it, as the tail was extended, Himiko grabbed it, transformed, brutally tugged tearing it from the stem, and twisting around, Himiko shoved the sharp pointer of the tail into the head of the two pointer destroying it. Then, tearing it back out the corpse collapsed, and as the two one pointers closed in, one behind the other, Himiko threw the tail, spearing the two one pointer and destroying them satisfyingly.
But it was only the beginning, as Himiko went of a laughter and destruction filled rampage for several minutes, and originally she planned on just avoiding the three pointers, but the possibility was too tantalising, so as Himiko ran head first into a group of three "two pointers" and a "three pointer" she ducked and dived between the two pointers' lashes and slashes gracefully, but her goal was the three pointer and swiftly she made her way over to it. Climbing the tank robot Himiko forcefully ripped off one of the two rocket launchers that housed six rockets each, then still standing atop the three pointer threw the rocket containing launcher at the previously pestering two pointers, sending them all up in a magnificent explosion of scrap, but the job was not done as Himiko barbarically stole the other launcher, and as she ran away threw it at the three pointer in another delicious destructive explosion.
Himiko destroyed robots left and right, but the best was when the zero-pointer appeared, making her smile with glee as while others ran away, she recklessly ran towards.
The goliath robot spotted her and attempted to slam her with its open palmed hand, but as it came crashing down Himiko dodged, then jumped atop the hand and began to run up the arm. The robot in response tried to swat her with the opposite hand, but it was to little success, as it only damaged its metal arm, crippling and crushing its own metal armour, revealing a pit of wires that looked fun to play with, so Himiko briefly transformed and ripped chunk after hunk of essential and important looking wires out, causing the arm to cease movements and spark repeatedly, once again putting a smile on Himiko's face as she continued to run up and climb the gigantic robot, that had seemingly become enraged as it hysterically and viciously tried to hit the elusive Himiko.
Getting atop the huge handgun shaped rectangular head, Himiko ran down it as to get to the face, but the remaining arm came sweepingly over the top which Himiko cleanly slid under and continued her run down the entertaining robot's head. Getting to the edge Himiko waited for the surviving arm to curl its hand into a fist then begin to swing itself at her, at which point she jumped off, and as the intimidating huge hunk of metal dangerously approached, she transformed increasing her weight making her fall faster narrowly dodging the fist, that continued its course and plowed mercilessly into its own face causing numerous explosions to erupt as the entertaining challenge plummeted to the round backwards and landing with a mighty boom, creating a large dust cloud that made Himiko turn away in response and cover her eyes, but when she turned back to look upon the scrap heap she had founded, a proud smile founded itself on her face.
"You fought the zero pointer?" Izuku questioned incredulously
Himiko's smile of joy did not falter, "I said I had fun!" she exclaimed excitedly
Izuku raised and eye brow, "you do realise how reckless that was?" he admonishes
Himiko raises her own eyebrow "says the one who was dragged to the infirmary." She argues
"touché" Izuku acknowledges
…
"anyway, what now?" Izuku finally asks after a long pause
"uh…" Himiko trails off, while once again taping a finger to her chin and looking up in thought, "Go home?" she concludes questioningly.
"Yeah" Izuku approves as his body begins to steam, then he gets out of bed and Himiko and himself walk out of the infirmary.
They leave and slide the door closed behind them, with it closing with a click.
Izuku almost has a PTSD flashback because of the click, but once again nobody needs to know that.
