*Midoriya's P.O.V*
"The history of One for All?" I asked.
"Yes." All Might started, "I should start with where One for All came from. It originated from another Quirk all together. All for One."
"... Why am I not surprised?" I muttered.
"All for One, as the name implies. Allows the user to steal and give away Quirks, should they desire." All Might explained.
"So, everything was there. Ripe for the taking. With that kind of power... they could rule the world." I stated.
"This all started during the 'Advent of the Exceptional'. A time when society still hadn't managed to adapt to the changes." All Might started, "Back then... the norms of what it meant to be a human suddenly collapsed, and with that... laws became meaningless. Societal Progress haulted. It was catastrophic."
"I feel like I said this before... but I'm saying it again. 'Without the advent of the extraordinary, humanity would be enjoying interplanetary travel by now'. That quote seems to fit in this scenario."
"Correct, and in that age of confusion of disorder... one man took the initiative and brought people together. You might have heard about this." All Might said. "He would steal Quirks from other people... and with his over-whelming power... spread the influence of his organization. He was responsible for manipulating so many others into commiting such wicked acts, which was his intent. Before long, he had taken over Japan. A true lord of evil."
"I've read rumors online when I was bored... but I couldn't find anything of the sort in any history text book. Then again... it would make sense why they wouldn't put the biggest travesty in Japan's history since Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the text book." I said.
"Correct. When a person has power, they instinctively seek a way to use it." All Might said.
"You mentioned that One for A- Sorry, All for One, can give away Quirks?" I asked.
"Yes, with that power he could instill trust in others... or get them to submit. However the load was too much to bear for those who received it. Many would end up becoming mere puppits, unable to speak. Like a Nomu." All Might explained, "However, there was one case where his granting of a Quirk resulted in a mutation. A blending. The man had a quirkless younger brother. This brother was small and fragile, but he had a strong sense of justice! And the deeds of his big brother pained him... so he opposed the tyrant. But the elder brother gave the younger brother a power-stocker Quirk by force. To this day we don't know whether or not it was out of kindness or if it was to force the brother to submit." All Might explained.
"But that power turned into All for O- Damn it, turned into One for All? I'm going to just call it the good Quirk." I said.
All Might chuckled, "Whatever works for you. Anyway, you are correct. The younger brother actually had a Quirk all along. a Quirk that allowed him to pass down his Quirk to others. That Quirk along with the 'Power-Stocker' Quirk were fused. That's how One for All came to be." He said extending his arms with gusto... before putting them back down. "An ironic tale, no? Justice is always born from evil."
"So this man. He could take whatever Quirk he wants right? If this is the same guy that is the mastermind of the League of Villains. Then does that mean he has stolen a Quirk that makes him live forever?" I asked.
"Yes. With his near immortality, and his indefatigable strength, as well as the state of society at the time... his defeated younger brother pass the mission to future generations. Though it was a shadow of what it is today... the power grew and grew. All in the hope that it could one day stop the older brother..." He explained.
Then it hit me.
"Your wound. Does that mean?" I asked as he nodded.
"I'm glad you've been paying attention. It was my generation that brought him down. At least that's what I thought. He survived, and he's on the move again as the brains of the League of Villains. One for All is a power that's inherited for the sole purpose of beating All for One. Which means that someday... you will fact that ultimate evil... perhaps." All Might finished.
...
...
"I realize that this got a bit dark-"
"Well that's simplifies things." I said.
"What?" All Might asked.
"We know what to do now. You and I need to beat this One for A- damn it! The evil Quirk's ass and win. With you and I fighting him we'll take him down easy." I said.
"I'm glad." He said with his trademark smile.
"So any other secrets I should now about? This guy's weakness? Any sort of info on the League? Your credit card information?" I asked while holding out his credit card.
"... I'll never get used to you doing that. How did you even get that? We were sitting the whole time?" All Might asked.
I laughed and handed it back to him. "I'm glad, I'm going to run that gag to the ground. As for how I did it, it was when you got up to sit in front of me."
"Okay... why did you learn that?" All Might asked.
"Look, there were times where Mom and I needed a few thousand yen to make ends meet. So I pick pocketed some people and passed it off as a bonus... don't tell Mom." I pleaded.
It was then that I heard the voice of my fears.
"She already knows." Mom said as she opened the door revealing an angry face.
"Uhh... Mom, how are you this fine evening?" I asked with a smile... but her face didn't waver at all. I looked at All Might, who shrugged.
"Don't look at me. I'm blameless in this situation." All Might said, "But how much of this conversation have you heard?"
"The part where I learned my son was a thief!" She yelled as I backed up.
"I-It was for the greater good!"
"Oww..." I muttered as I rubbed my sore cheek. I faced a face slap, and a long lecture about the ethics of honesty, and my dinner debt was extended to this week and the Training Camp as well. No, really. Mom called Mr. Aizawa and he said that I would be forced to cook for everyone in the Training Camp. Yeah well... jokes on them! I was planning to cook there anyway, and now I don't have to break into the kitchen now! So HA!
Ahem... anyway... that bombshell was dropped, but nothing changed. I know my mission, beat All for One... got it right this time!
... But I feel like I was supposed to do something... oh right!
I pulled out my phone and pulled out the 1-A group chat.
IM: Hey guys, a question.
KB: Fuck you, nerd!
IM: Okay, guys excluding Bakugou, I have a question.
TI: Midoriya! I'm glad you are alright!
OU: What's your question Midoriya?
IM: So I've been having this problem.
FT: What a mad banquet of darkness.
IM: Exactly.
IM: Whenever I see Itake smile, and hear her laugh. My heart beats really fast, faster than when I'm exercising.
IM: Am I having a stroke or something?
Everyone sent '...'
IM: Was doing '...' really necessary?
MY: Midoriya... I believe that is a 'Crush'.
IM: Oh, so that's what a crush feels like!
TH: Are you serious?
IM: Pretty much, every girl in from my past school was a complete jerk. And I wouldn't classify any of you as 'Crush Material'.
IM: Except Kouda, he's the best one.
KK: ^_^
IM: See? Case and Point.
MA: Wow.
OU: I'll pretend to not be offended.
TA: Ribbit.
IM: Well Tsu, if it makes you feel any better... I'd say you're one of the best in 1-A... tied with Kouda.
TH: Meanie.
KJ: Fuck you.
IM: You're welcome!
MY: A-Am I not pretty?
IM: You're drop dead gorgeous.
MY: Really?
IM: I wouldn't have said it if it wasn't true.
That, and I don't want to crush her self-esteem after I busted my butt building it back up.
MY: Thank you.
IM: You're welcome.
IM: Anyway, going off on a tangent. I have a crush on Itake, what do I do?
MA: Well I don't know we would help you since we're not 'Crush Material'.
IM: I mean I can ask Kendou for advice.
MA: WE'LL HELP YOU! WE NEED SOME ROMACE ACTION!
IM: It's 'Romance'.
MA: SHUSH!
MA: Tooru, it's time for plan 'Operation: Delta Alpha Tango Echo'.
IM: That's literally 'Operation: D.A.T.E'.
MA: I know a stroke of genius if I do say so myself.
TH: I'm on it! I have our shades and everything!
IM: Okay... I can sense this ending in failure... so I'll just ask Kendou.
IM: Anyway, I'm recovering from the slap Mom gave me. So bye.
MA: HOLD THE FRICK UP! Your Mom slapped you?
IM: Yeah?
MA: Well what happened?
IM: She found out... something bad.
MA: I see go on?
IM: She found out how I managed to get us the remaining amount we need to meet ends meet.
MA: Drugs?
TH: Gambling?
MM: Prostitution?
KB: Assassination. Has to be.
IM: No, tried and failed, ew, and I would be in jail.
IM: No, I was and still am a master pickpocketer.
DK: NANI?!
HS: WHAT?!
ST: That explains so much.
OU: TODOROKI?!
ST: What? He stole Endeavor's and Best Jeanist's credit cards as a joke.
IM: Hey, you gotta do what you gotta do.
IM: And I'm paying for it in spades. Meet your chef for the Training Camp.
Everyone did '...' again.
Then everyone said 'What?!' With varying degrees of exclamation marks and capitalization.
IM: Yeah, Mom pulled the Aizawa Card, and that's added to my punishment of failing the practical exams.
MY: But how could we trust you later?
IM: Yaoyorozu... Momo... honey. You're loaded and I didn't take your money. I may be a jerk, but I wouldn't steal from family and friends.
IM: I have a moral code. Honor Among Thieves and all that.
IM: Plus it makes for a great party trick... and paying for pizza.
IM: However, I do find some pretty interesting things. Like in Mineta's bag.
-You were kicked from the chat by Minoru Mineta-
Awesome...
I was added back in a few seconds after.
IM: Rude.
MM: Have you heard of the bro code? One does not talk about a dude's personal belongings.
IM: I would... if I wasn't an only child. Or cared enough.
IM: ANYWAY, This is getting nowhere! I'm going to talk to Kendou. Good night.
I bailed from the chat, then turned to Kendou and I's chat.
IM: I have a dilemna.
IK: Does it have to do with Kinoko?
IM: Alright, who spilled?
IK: No one, it was pretty obvious you have feelings for her.
IK: So I assume you're here for advice?
IM: Yes. Help me. Help me Obi Wan Kendoubi, you're my only hope.
IK: ...
IM: That nickname is sticking, no amount of giant hand punches will change that.
IK: I kinda like it so it's fine. As for your advice... just grow a pair and tell her how you feel. I'd recommend the Training Camp at night. Moonlight confessions are kinda her weakness.
IK: In a few weeks ago we watched a terrible romance movie. Everyone but Kinoko, Setsuna and I fell asleep. Setsuna and I were bored out of our minds, but Kinoko was enthralled by the movie, and cried during the moonlight confession part of it. Hell she said she wanted to be confessed to under the moonlight, with the bright stars out.
IM: Seems simple enough.
IK: Heh... good luck. She talks about you all the time.
IK: As their appointed big sister, I approve of this.
IM: If you're the sis, I hate to meet the dad.
IK: Trust me... you don't want to meet him.
IM: Please for the love of gosh, don't tell me it's Vlad King.
IK: Good Luck, this is the test of your commitment.
She left the chat before I could ask any more questions.
Well... this just got slightly harder.
... Bring it on.
*End of Chapter*
(A/N: So now that we're at this point of the cannon, time to make something apparent. The Movie. Yes, I will make a chapter out of it. But that won't come for a long time. At least until Feburary. Mainly because that's when the movie comes out on DVD. I don't remember every detail about the movie, specifically the part where they go all Bruce Willis and climb up the solider infested tower Ala Die Hard. So yeah, I'll just gloss over that part for now. But know it's coming.)
