Chapter 2: The U.A Entrance Exam

Two years have passed since the incident on Kiyashi Shopping mall. On that day, people were badly injured, and the mall completely collapsed leaving nothing but rubble. The people injured by the accident were taken to the hospital and given full health treatment. Luckily, there were no casualties thanks to the efforts made by the Pro-Heroes who were present on that day.

However, Izuku knew that the media was lying because there was one casualty on that incident.

He was Gin Isobu, his best friend, maybe even got to the point on calling him a brother. On that day, he jumped into the fray to save his brother, which he managed to pull off at the cost of his own life. Izuku blamed himself for not been able to do anything, to go with him, before he knew it, Gin became a hero right before his eyes, and no would even remember what he did. It was weird that there wasn't even a funeral for him, after all the things he did, he gets nothing in return.

He could have talked to Han about it, however, they don't get along at all. It couldn't be helped, Han's personality and his did not match at all. After the incident, he did not hear much about Han anymore.

What also happened is that Typhoon stopped all of her hero activities for a while. That was all over the news, for a hero like her to be inactive was a tragedy, maybe it was because of the emotional turmoil that she had to go through that day. Luckily, since All Might is the Symbol of Peace the crime rates didn't increase that much. The authorities even considered to drop Typhoon's rank because of her inactivity, but they reconsidered that decision after the entire country of Japan disagreed, after all, she's loved by all.

Those two years were like hell for Izuku as he couldn't help but be depressed. Luckily since he has his mother with him who supported him countless times, he managed to overcome it. He didn't forget Gin, he's never going to do that. What he's going to do is carry their promise to the end, and become the best hero even if he's Quirkless.

He already wrote 12 entire volumes of the Hero's Quirks, and he was about to go home to write about the incident that he saw today involving a giant villain. Right now, he finished his classes and began packing his things to make his way home. Of course, he couldn't contain his excitement. That excitement died down as he saw his notebook being taken.

"We're not done talking yet, Deku."

As Izuku looked up, he instantly shivered in fear. What was in front of him is Katsuki Bakugou, his childhood friend, or at least that's what he thought. Two of his goons were approaching.

"Katsuki what's that?" The one with the longer head asked which made Bakugou show the book that he was holding "Hero analysis for the future...? Bwahahaha. You have to be kidding Midoriya!"

"H-hey, it's still possible! Kaachan, c-can you please give me back my book?" Izuku asked hoping for the best.

That hope crumbled as Bakugou exploded his book with his bare hands.

"Huh?"

And threw it off the window.

"Why did you do that?!" Izuku panicked.

Bakugou placed his hand on Izuku's shoulder, but not because of generosity, he's far too prideful for such thing. He barely activated his Quirk as it made smoke coming out of his hand, stinging Izuku for a little. "You know, I'm striving to be the No.1 hero, after all, I'm the perfect candidate to apply. But what about you? You still don't have a Quirk, so do yourself a favor..."

Bakugou leaned forward still with a smug smirk on his face.

"Don't apply to U.A, you nerd"

Bakugou then pulled away and started to walk away with his goons, not caring for Izuku at all, the latter was shivering at the words of discouragement for his so-called "childhood friend".

"At least say something back."

"He won't. He's too pathetic to even face reality."

He ignored the voices of his classmates. Izuku never abandoned his dream, he never did. Well, at least it's his own dream now, since the one the only friend he shared with it, is no more. He shed a tear as the memories of that day started to flood again on his head, but quickly disappeared. He already got over it. The only thing for him to do now is to retrieve his notebook. However...

"If you want to be a hero that badly, there's a quick way to do it..."

Izuku flinched and turned to Bakugou with wide eyes. He wouldn't dare. He wouldn't dare to mock him.

"You could make the wise decision that your pathetic friend did. You pray that you will be born with a Quirk on your next life, and take a dive to your death!"

He actually did it.

Izuku didn't know what came over him. It was as if his body moved on its own. He charged at Bakugo and tackled him with all of his might, pushing him to the wall. He was crying his eyes out, and screamed in a mix of fury and sadness, as he repeatedly punched Bakugou on his body. No one, absolutely no one can dare to mock his only true friend, because thanks to him, it gave him hope to become the hero he always wanted to be.

Izuku's punches barely did any damage physically, but mentally, it left Bakugou bewildered.

All of his life, Izuku always took the cowardly action towards Bakugou's teasing, making the latter believe he was some type of king. However, this action is the very first time that Izuku actually fought back. After ten seconds of astonishment, Bakugou finally reached his breaking point.

"So you're actually fighting back?!" Bakugou shouted angrily, tugging Izuku to the side and sending a large non-lethal explosion to his head.

Izuku lost his grip and was pinned to the ground, he then felt a sharp pain on his torso as Bakugou kept mercilessly exploding him. He could feel his fury without even looking at him.

"Learn your fucking place!" Bakugou shouted as he left the singed body of Izuku on the floor.

To say that Izuku was in pain was an understatement, the guy just got exploded in the face and all of his entire torso. He felt like hell, he was crying, but on his inside, he will not falter. If he had to go through this for Buddha knows how long, all for the sake to protect Gin's wishes, then so be it, he will endure it and not even Bakugou can intimidate him.

'No matter what happens, I will become a hero... that was Gin's... no... our wish. Even if the entire world is telling me to stop, I will not be discouraged by anyone! Not even by you, Kaachan...'


[10 months later]

U.A High School, the most prestigious hero school in Japan, the place where the chances of becoming a pro-hero are at their lowest, but the chances of being famous are at their highest. This is the place where Izuku Midoriya is going to attempt on doing the entrance exam, and he was more than ready. After training non-stop for 10 months and receiving the power of All Might, he was prepared. However, there was a slight problem going on...

'How can everyone be so confident?!'

He was beyond nervous.

Standing far away from the massive door that was Battle Center B, he just couldn't help it, this exam was going to decide his future, but what bothers him is how most of the contestants are able to remain calm and confident. Izuku took his time to ponder and came to the conclusion that it was because the people were confident about their Quirks since they know everything about them, whereas Izuku, who just received his Quirk before arriving didn't even have time to test it out.

It also didn't help that the contestants were all against him, after all, he did show his lack of confidence where Present Mic was giving the instructions. Luckily, the exam was a simple task...

Destroy the robots.

That was it, that's all he had to do.

As he calmed himself down, he started to look at the other contestants and someone caught his eye. He is a tall young man, probably about 178 centimeters tall, and had long cyan-colored hair, it was no mistake, this person is Han Isobu. He seemed uninterested in the test, probably knowing that he was going to pass right away. Izuku sighed in relief, finally finding someone that he at least met in his life can prove a boost to his confidence. He wasted no time as he ran to greet Han.

Han took notice of someone approaching him and turned to see Izuku in front of him.

"Han-kun, n-nice to see you after quite a while. You know, everyone seems so confident and it's making me uneasy, still, it's still amazing that I have found you here-... Han-kun?" Izuku stopped his muttering as he saw that Han was glaring daggers at him, scaring him to the point of constant shivering. Why Han was glaring him like that was a complete mystery to him.

"You're going to fail."

And with that, Han left the completely perplexed Izuku behind.

While Izuku and Han didn't get along that well, the latter shouldn't have such a hostile reaction towards him. It confused him, but at the same time, it scared him.


"Of all people on the planet, this guy had to be here...' Han sighed in annoyance. The last thing he wanted to see today was the pain that was Izuku Midoriya. 'Calm down Han, he's going to fail, he doesn't have a Quirk so it's fine… Let's just get this over with and go home.'

Han wasn't confident or scared to take the test of the most prestigious high school. He was just tired and wanted to go to his house. The only reason he was here was that today is the only day the entrance exam is made, and he couldn't go another time.

Unlike the other people that had clothes that fit their Quirks. Han didn't have any of that, he just has a pair of jeans, and a #FreeTyler1 t-shirt equipped, and still, he didn't care about the contestants. He just knew that he was going to pass.

Why was that? Because this test was the perfect way for the use of his Quirk.

"Alright…" Han cracked his neck as he grabbed his iPhone "Siri, set the whole 'IDGF' playlist."

-Setting the whole 'I Don't Give a Fuck' playlist. Now playing 'Thrift Shop from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis'-

"Let's get this over with…" Han muttered as he put on his earphones.

"Start!" Present Mic shouted, confusing some of the contestants, there wasn't any alarm or horn "What, did you think there would be any alarms? Go, break a leg!"

The contestants sprinted forward, Han wasted no time and started to look for the 1-Pointer villains, the reason he was doing this is because the contestants would most likely go for the 2 or 3-pointer first, and since those are harder to find, that would give Han more than enough time to destroy most of the 1-pointers.

As Han ran towards the district, he stopped and started to quickly think on a plan as he looked at the robots in front of him.

'Twenty 1-pointers… As I thought, they are packed together as a swarm' Han thought as he placed his hands on the ground, causing a purple intangible dome to come out of his body 'However, this the perfect scenario to use my Quirk.'

The sphere covered a field of 10 meters radius, it wasn't much, but it wasn't Han's full potential either, just the necessary amount. On top of the dome, a bunch of purple clouds started to form, and then immediately turned to black color.

"Really... Antennas over your head?" Han let out a disappointed sigh "The design of this robots are worse than Windows 95... Those Antennas are prone to attract lightning. Whoever designed this clearly is not at the same level as my mother or me."

After Han said that, the robots were struck with bolts of lightning that toasted their systems. It was fast and effective, all twenty 1-pointers were down, which means that Han has now 20 points at his favor, and the test just started. He deactivated his Quirk and went to the rests of burnt metal that were the robots. He scratched his chin and then an idea clicked on his head. He then immediately start to scavenge the parts from the burnt robots.

"If these robots were grouped together by some type of signal, then maybe I could just redirect it and..." Han said as he got some parts out of the robots, an antenna and a sonar radar, which is used to track the students of the test. Those will be very useful tools for Han to complete the test. As he tinkered with the cables, he spent two minutes of trial and error, and finally, he made what he wanted "Neat, this device will send a signal and will attract the nearest robots to my location... In other words, I just found the lottery."

As Han said that, five 3-pointers and ten 2-pointers started to surround Han. However, this is what he wanted, he needed to get points as fast a possible and this was the best way to do. He smirked as he created a larger dome, he planned to take them all at once. The air started to colder as snow started to come out of the clouds.

"Alright, this time we're going to create hail, it's slower, but at least I can control it..." Han said as piercing icicles started to come out of the sky. However he winced as he started to pant, he was getting weak. "Still, using an excessive amount of energy on trash... whatever let's just get this over with."

Present Mic:

Name: Han Isobu

Quirk: Atmosphere

Description: He can make his own atmosphere and control the gases at will. His perfect manipulation of gases is what allows him to create any weather he wants. However, excessive use of his Quirk can cause dehydration, and he is unable to activate his Quirk during at very high temperatures.

The variety of attacks he can use is unknown?! Are you serious?! Is this guy like an insane magician?!


[U.A High/ Control Room]

"A test where the contestants weren't informed about the number of villains or their locations, truly, this is a test where the participants must put their whole soul into it!" A very small animal-like creature chirped, this is the principal of U.A High School, Nezu, who is currently spectating the exam alongside the other teachers who all seemed to be concentrated in the test. "This year contestants sure look promising don't they?"

"Well, we can't say that yet..." The hero of cement, Cementoss stated "After all, every year the new students never cease to amaze me. To be able to take thirty robots in one attack..."

Nezu looked at the contestants once more and reevaluated them. His attention fixated on a guy with multiple arms, Mezo Shoji.

"Information gathering abilities to understand the situation before anyone else..."

He then looked onto another student who has engines on both of his knees, Tenya Iida.

"Mobility that can be used on very different circumstances..."

Then to the explosive boy, Katsuki Bakugou.

"Pure combat ability..."

And finally, the weather boy, Han Isobu.

"And quick thinking and decision making to overcome even the harshest of situations. To be honest, I'm very curious that your son didn't take the recommendation exam, Shiore." Nezu said, turning around to the silhouette of a lady, who finally stepped out of the shadows, revealing her appearance "He could have done very well in my opinion."

The woman has a petite figure and has very long cyan-colored hair that reached down to her waist. She has purple eyes and a beautiful face that would make Mt. Lady jealous. She wears mostly a pair of aviator glasses. A black jumpsuit that covers her entire body, with the exception of her head, which is why she gives the impression that she's always wearing a pair of black gloves. The jumpsuit also has a pair of glowing red outlines on each of her arms and legs. Over that jumpsuit, she wears a standard white lab coat. This woman is known as Shiore Isobu, otherwise known as Weather Hero, Typhoon, she currently holds the spot as the No.5 Hero of Japan.

"And I think you're right Mr. Principal, but the reason he didn't take it will remain personal, so... I'm kinda sorry" Shiore stated first with a formal tone before shifting to a more casual one.

"Don't worry, I understand that you have your reasons," Nezu said taking a sip of his unlimited tea.

"But hey, at least all of you get to see him in action!" Shiore said turning to all the Pro-Heroes who were staring intently to the match.

"Hmm, that's true, and to be honest I'm really impressed." The Clone Hero, Ectoplasm admitted, he then walked to the controls and pushed up a glass capsule that contained a flashy red button inside "However, the true part of the test is about to begin..."

"Wait!" Shiore shouted startling Ectoplasm who was about to push the button.

"What is it?"

"Let me push it!" Shiore chirped as she had star-shaped eyes "I want to test this myself."

Ectoplasm sweatdropped but then shrugged "...Suit yourself"

"Alrighty then, let the final part of the test..." Shiore grinned and ran towards the red button, pushing it without hesitation "Begin!"


[Back to the test]

"Oof, well I think that's all of them," Han said to himself as he looked at the city streets. They were all full of destroyed robots, mostly because of him and the other contestants. He currently has a score of 63 points, mostly because of the bait he made. Speaking of that bait, it already burnt out, as the device blow a fuse with the sudden changes of weather that Han did.

Speaking of Han, he was getting thirsty due to the number of times he used his Quirk, but he could still go. There were no sights of robots remaining, and with only 2 minutes remaining, the only thing Han could actually do is to slack off until the clock hits zero.

"Nice, now I can finally go home and finally play some League... You have to be fucking kidding me."

Han cursed himself as he felt the ground trembling rapidly, and what he saw next was the bane of his existence. The 0-pointer, a gargantuan robot the size of a building that crushes anyone like bugs. "Who had the great idea on putting a robot of that size that could kill anyone with ease?! This is a test!"

Since there was no merit on taking out that robot, the best course of actions is to run, which Han wasted no time on doing so. As Han was sprinting to the exit, he saw that Izuku was frozen in fear, but since he was in perfect shape, he could make a run for it. 'No merit on helping that guy.'

However, just before Han could leave Izuku behind, he heard something, or rather, someone... It sounded like a girl who's wincing in pain. Cursing himself more, Han turned behind to see a girl with short brown hair and looked like she blushed every time. The girl had her knee stuck in concrete, and no one was going to save her. And since there is so little time, Han had to act fast.

'Leeroy Jenkins to save her?' Han thought for a second as the robot got closer to the girl 'Leeroy Jenkins to save her.'

Han then sprinted towards the location of the girl. He was annoyed that U.A had something so dangerous for a group of students, but there was no time to ponder on those thoughts. However, as Han was getting closer, he heard some ground cracking behind him. It wasn't a robot because it didn't sound like metal... Somebody jumped, and he had to know who did it. As Han looked up, he couldn't believe what was he witnessing, it was Izuku Midoriya 20 meters up in the air. How did he get that high was a mystery to him, but the purpose was clear. Izuku was going to face the huge robot head-on.

'Sweet baby Jesus, this guy is nuts...'

Han shook his head as he got out of his trance, there were far more important stakes on the matter, the girl, she was still stuck under the rubble, and he had to get there out while Izuku was distracting the robot. Han arrived alongside the girl who was still trying to get out of the rubble, the latter took notice of the presence.

"You're...?" the girl asked, trying to guess the name, she looked sick, very so.

"Han Isobu," Han said in a monotone voice as he lifted the small piece of concrete that was bothering the girl "There, you should be able to move by... now?"

Han's eyes widened as he thought that this is a freaking comic book. Izuku just singlehandedly took out the 0-pointer with immense strength. The Quirkless spinach than Han thought he was, maybe he was proven wrong. The robot collapsed to the ground, it's central system obliterated, it stood no chance.

"How even..."

"He's falling!"

The shout of the girl that Han just saved snapped out of his trance. Izuku was falling to the ground, that would be fine if the strength that Izuku showed right now can take his fall. However, Han narrowed his eyes as he saw the state that Izuku is in, his right arm, and both of his legs were completely broken, which means that his Quirk has taken a huge toll on his body. And since he's falling from 20 meters height, there was no doubt about what will happen if he falls.

He's going to die.

"Can you help me with this?" A weak feminine voice snapped Han out of his thoughts. It was the girl that he helped, and she was trying to get on top of the head of a destroyed robot. Why? He didn't have a clue.

"What are you doing uh...?" Han tried to ask.

"Ochaco Uraraka, please hurry there is no time!" Uraraka shouted causing Han to nod.

Han supported her feet and helped Uraraka hop on top of the robot. She then tapped the robot's head, emitting a faint purple light, and after that, the robot¿s head lifted with as a gravitational force. When she reached a considerable amount of height, she was ready to do another action. A gamble. With lightning reflexes, Uraraka managed to touch Izuku mid-air, activating her Quirk and stopping his fall.

'Zero Gravity, huh?' Han thought, quickly understanding the girl's Quirk. 'That's a useful Quirk...'

Uraraka then started to vomit.

'...but it appears that it has its drawbacks.'

"If I can just get one point!"

Han turned around to see the teary Izuku barely moving with his only useful hand. With that amount of bones broken no wonder it hurt like hell, and with that Han could conclude that Izuku didn't manage to get one point. Han sighed, not because he felt bad, it was a relieve for him that Izuku isn't going to enter to U.A.

"Time's up!"

And with Present Mic's shout, the test came to an end. It wasn't hard for Han, but it was tiring. Many people stayed to look at Izuku's condition, but Han didn't care and just to his home, because this was a long day for him. But as Han was leaving a thought as lightning struck inside his brain.

'Wait a second... this is a hero test, and Popeye just helped me rescue the girl and by punching the robot, a hero would totally do that. This is also the most prestigious hero school in Japan...'

Han then realized it and facepalmed, how could he be so dumb?!

'Oh my god, he PASSED.'


[1 week later/ Isobu's mansion]

-DEFEAT-

"Fuck these teammates, total garbage!"

Han was playing on his PC, a game of League of Legends, he was carrying but lost because his teammates decided to 'feed'. Luckily he only lost 12 LP and still maintained the Number 1 spot on the Korean server, at least there is a plus.

Han's room is huge, fitting every word on him as a 'rich kid'. He had a master size bed, two desks, one for his PC, and the other one for work. He also had a leather sofa at the other end of his room, which could fit more than 10 people in it. He also 70-inch plasma screen TV with every single limited-edition console in gaming history. His room is covered with posters various different games: God of War, Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, Witcher, League of Legends, Overwatch, etc.

*Knock Knock*

A knock on the door made Han stand up from his seat, and went to answer. When he opened it, he was greeted by the sight of an old man with very noticeable wrinkles, he had white hair and beard. This man is the butler of the Isobu family, Sebastian Engels, or in short, Sebas.

"What is it Sebas? I'm in no mood for interruptions while I'm playing games, make it quick." Han demanded, making Sebas take out a letter from his pocket.

"My apologies for interrupting you, Han-sama. But a letter from U.A High has arrived, I believe they are your test results…" Sebas said surprising Han as the latter took the letter from the butler's hands.

"I see… thank you Sebas, you can go now." Han said causing Sebas to bow and leave him. Han closed the door and went towards his desk, he instantly opened the mail and got out two things. A ring projector, and a folded piece of paper. Han raised an eyebrow, and pressed the button of the ring, causing an image to pop-up…

"I AM HERE!"

Han almost fell out of his chair "That was way too sudden! What the hell is All Might doing there?"

The overly muscular Symbol of Peace is inside the screen. He was in his usual trademark smile wearing a yellow suit.

"Now you might have been wondering why I'm here Young Han, as you probably guessed, I teach here at U.A High!"

"Oh yay, All Might be teaching in U.A, what joy," Han said sarcastically, really getting annoyed by All Might's joyful nature.

"Although you probably don't care about it, so I'll get to the point." All Might said finally showing the results to Han "You totally destroyed the results in here. You scored a total of 77 points, with 63 villain points, and 14 rescue points! You even tied the first place with Young Bakugou, I'm proud of you!"

"I got first place, as expected. Neat, that means I'm in U.A." Han said as he unfolded the paper showing his admit ion into U.A, his schedule, and the details on what uniform he has to wear. Han then opened the window, showing the beautiful night sky that was outside.

"Now you might be wondering how you got 'rescue points', well then this is thanks to-"

Han turned off the hologram and threw the ring of the window. He didn't want to hear things that he already knows. As he stared at the night sky, he couldn't help but think of someone.

'I wonder if that guy passed too…'


[Someplace else/ At a beach]

Izuku has been talking with All Might for a while and was very surprised to see that the latter is teaching in U.A High School. Although he was a bit sad that All Might was searching for a strong successor, as he thought of him not be that strong. Izuku told him that he broke his bones using the power, but he soon calmed down when he was told that One for All cannot be controlled right off the bat.

"Wait, does that mean you knew that was going to happen?" Izuku asked worriedly.

All Might rub his head sheepishly, it appears he let that slip by "Well... let's just say that I didn't have enough time for that..." but then started explaining the fundamentals of the power "The more you train a vessel, the more you can move your power- Huh?"

Izuku blinked rapidly as All Might stopped in the middle of his sentence, confused, he asked: "What's wrong, All Might?"

"Uncle Toshi, what are you doing here?"

Izuku startled as he heard the deep voice. He turned around to see a very tall man, probably 185 centimeters, he has a blue jersey and blue jeans. He has messy jet black hair, and he would look like an everyday average man. However, this man is different, he has his arms covered in white bandages, and he has an eyepatch that covered his left eye. Just around his left eye, he has a scar that looked like he was slashed by some animal. Overall, he looked like a very intimidating man to Izuku, but what caught his attention the most is that he referred All Might, as 'Uncle', why was that?

"O-Oh, I uh, stumbled upon this young man because he got lost on his way to return home..." All might sweatdrop as he gave a look to Izuku that said 'Follow my lead'.

"O-Oh. y-yeah, that's right! I didn't know what street this was, so I asked this man that was just around the corner to come and help me!" Izuku stuttered. With this, All Might can conclude something about Izuku.

He is a terrible liar.

"Oh, well that sounds reasonable." the man said smiling, as he went down to greet his uncle "Still, for you to appear here... I thought you were going for a trip or something."

'For some reason, that smile seems nostalgic...' Izuku thought as a brief flash of Gin appeared on his mind. Everytime he thought of his friend his mood dropped a ton, it was painful. "Well, I think I should go home, I'm hungry and I haven't eaten anything..."

All Might nodded "You sure can go on your own?"

"Yeah, I know my way here now. Thanks anyway." Izuku said turning away from the two, his eyes were covered by his hair.

It's not like everytime he thinks of Gin is such a mood dropper, but this time it was different. That man resembled his old friend so much that it wasn't even funny. If it wasn't because of the eyepatch and the bandages, he could have sworn he saw Gin there. However, he knew more than anyone that the dead can't resuscitate, so maybe some rest in his house will raise his spirits.

"Well then Gin, I was on the way to your house anyway. We should hurry or your mother will make me eat her food." All Might said.

Izuku froze in place. Gin? That name, jet black hair, friendly attitude. There is no way that's him, or at least that was his pessimistic attitude in action. Gin died a long time ago, and there is no way that this guy is him. However, what Izuku wanted to believe is another story, his rational mind told him not to do it, but his feelings told him to do so. He wanted to confirm if he was him, no, he had to confirm if he was him.

"Haha, that sounds something she would totally do, and yeah, we should go, I don't want to taste her food either."

"WAIT!"

The two men froze at Izuku's shout and turned to him with confused expressions. What should he say? What should he do? Izuku took time to ponder these thoughts before deciding to go with it anyway.

"A-A-Are you, Gin Isobu?" Izuku asked, tears evident in his eyes.

The man began blinking rapidly, clearly surprised by Izuku's outburst. Everyone stood there in silence before he spoke up "Yes? And how do you know my name?"

Izuku stood there dumbfounded. This is him. This has to be him. There is no other explanation. He even remembered what they promised.


"Let's become heroes ourselves, and save everyone!"

"We can become heroes."


"Gin, you know Young Midoriya?" All Might asked curious about their connection.

"Midoriya?" Gin's right eye widened, memories from past times coming back. They weren't bad memories, they were happy times. A kid with green hair and him playing tag, video-games, and even watching the best scenes of All Might on HeroTube. He watched the frozen green haired teen in shock, and couldn't help but say his name.

"...Izuku?"

Izuku shivered, and a flood of tears started to come out of his eyes. His feelings were now all over the place and couldn't help the word "Yes." to come out of his mouth. A weak smile formed on his face. "It's me."

Gin's right eye started to let out some tears as well, and after that, neither of them could contain themselves "Oh my god... it's really you!"

The two teens the sprinted from and made a big brotherly hug. The two of them screaming and bawling, almost flooding the entire beach with tears. In the midst of that, Izuku was the first to talk.

"W-Where were you dammit, I thought you were dead..."

"Too much happened Izuku, too much happened..."

And then the two kept crying for 5 minutes straight. The rule that men don't have to cry didn't really apply for them.
