A wise man once said "There are so many different ways to tell a story, but that's what makes them so interesting; you could never predict how they are going to turn out."
It was a normal day in Musutafu weather was nice, school had just ended, oh and a sludge villain was currently holding a teen hostage as said teen caused collateral damage. Oh and there goes another teen running in to intervene.
"No, you idiot! Stop!"
"You're gonna get yourself killed!"
The kid ran in swinging his backpack at the beast causing it to recoil. However it was all for seemingly not as the boy himself, in a feeble attempt to pull the other out, got himself stuck.
Everyone was screaming in concern and frustration but a few among the chaos could hear him cry.
"Kacchan! I couldn't just stand there and watch you die!"
"Get the hell off me!" The monster growled.
Then as the beast tries to strike the would be hero the pro's rush in "Save the boy!" "This thing'll kill him"!
Then a figure appeared blocking the attack, "I really am pathetic." He says as he grabs the kids from the beast, "I told you the traits that make a great champion, but I see now I wasn't living up to my own ideal." He reels up for a punch, "Pros are always risking their lives! That's the true test of a hero!" The villain tries to attack, "Damn you, All Might!" "Detroit... SMASH!!!" With a mighty heave he punched the villain blowing the living sludge to pieces.
Once the wind pressure generated by the attack came to a stop, to the onlookers amazement, it began raining
"Huh?"
"It's raining?"
"Don't tell me all that wind just now was..".
"Look at the clouds. They're moving!"
"Holy crap, changed the weather".
"Did that really just happen?"
"He changed the weather with a single punch, like it was nothing!"
"All Might saved the day again, he's amazing!"
After the spectacle ended the heroes on scene cleaned up the mess and then proceeded to confront the two boys, praising the blond exploder and scolding the greenette would be hero.
"You moron! Do you have a death wish?"
"There was absolutely no reason for you to put yourself in danger like that!"
Then out of the crowd walked a short elderly man in green cargo shorts, a hawaiian tourist shirt, with a walking cane
"Ey Ey Ey! What do you two young men think you're doing! What are you a bunch of rookies? You think yah doin anyone any good yellin at a young lad like that! He's practically shaking a hole into the ground"
The man scolded in a scratchy irritated voice as the trio turned toward him.
"Huh" "Do you know this young man?" A muscular hero with giant arms asked the old timer.
The old man shot the greennette a 'play along' look before replying "I Otta! But that's none of your beeswax young man! His mother is worried sick and your just wasting our time, I swear you rookies get more incompetent every year,"Sir I'm-" "Now if you'll execute us it's half an hour pass my bed time so we'll be going now." It's not even five ye-" "Come now, still need to stop by the store on our way back." The stout man ordered as he began ushering the boy pass the heroes, "Oh, C-Co-Coming"
"What just happened?"
Once they were out of earshot the greennette asked cautiously, "Do I know you sir?"
This caused the man to give a soft chuckle as his voice became much more soothing. "Ohohohoho, it'd be a shock to me if you did, Wang Jié."
"Huh, uh, Midoriya Izuku. Uh sir why'd you do that back there?"
"Oh I just hate seeing young men with good hearts be berated like that." Wang said nonchalantly.
Midoriya however takes a downtrodden expression as he numbly bemoaned, "They were right though, it was dumb to rush in, I just made things worse."
Wang looked over to the young man who was on the verge of crying as he said, "Perhaps,"
The young man pauses in shock at the blunt reply, but he knew it was tru-, "but the right call is hardly ever the smartest one."
This caused the young Midoriya to pause in shock and confusion, but before he could get out a question the man continued. "It is unintelligent and reckless to voluntarily take on a profession with assured health risk and highly probable mortality. Yet we all worship AllMight a man who works himself to the point of insanity for the sake of those who'll turn on him the moment he doesn't live up to the dream. Young man, is it smart to be AllMight?"
Izuku was stunned, and yet intrigued, because he's not wrong he knows what happened to AllMight he pushes himself to his limit everyday despite lacking several organs, and he does so with a smile, how is that logical?
And yet, "But-but sir we need heroes like AllMight, they make people feel safe and defend the defenseless!" "I'm not saying your wrong and I'm not saying your right, what I am saying is," he steps forward reaching up to put a hand on the boys shoulder, "you were the real hero back there, you did what those posers were to scared to do, act to help even at your own risk. Kid as far as I'm concerned, regardless of what anyone else says," The boy begins to gasp, is this what he's been waiting to hear, "you are a true hero"
And with that the damn breaks as years of heartache unleash uncontrollable and yet so soothing as tears pour onto the street.

Author's Note
Hello so if you've seen this you may have seen my other story I'm doing, The Blind Savior:Deku.
I'm still doing that, but while that's going to be a more for fun story this'll be a more serious one that'll be more lore heavy.
Warning and shout out, this will be heavily inspired by My Miraculous Academia though I'll make sure to make it unique but do expect some similar ideas.
I'll be playing lose with Miraculous lore and abilities and will be using some personal ideas along with some fannon.
