AN : Well, time to see exactly how strong is Izuku at five percent max... Which is nothing but a small show of what will happen... After he does master his powers.
Disclaimer : I don't own BHA, nor even Thor, he's an alien giant who would do whatever he wants.
I am here!
6 a.m.
Izuku was currently on the caffeteria, he had a few red eyes, which were also very sweet so he can get enough energy to keep going. Today was the big day, and he planned to show U.A., Aizawa and the world how HUGE of a mistake it was to crush his dream.
"Yo, Problme chi.." Aizawa was about to greet Izuku who was currently behind him.
"You move, I will snap your neck. Are we clear?" Izuku threatened as he made a lot of pressure. "Let me remind you that it was You who crushed my dream, and because of that, I was kidnapped and tortured for weeks!"
"Well I'm so.." He begun only for Izuku's hand to start to show its true strength as he applied more and more pressure, showing how Aizawa's fate was literally in his own hand.
"No! You are not! Did you even bother to ask? When were you able to use your Quirk properly? It was a single fucking question!" Izuku replied before he put a hand on his head, "Oh I see. That bad, huh?" He released his hold before he glared at his ex-sensei, "Aizawa, I will let you live this time. But next time we cross path? You will pay with your blood. Now get your coffee and fuck off my sight!"
"You know I can erase your.." He begun only to be slammed against the wall with a lot of strength, now that he took in the teen's build, he was terrified. That wasn't the build of a fifteen years old man, but.. Something else!
"NO! Even if you fucking do it, I can still rip a limb or two. Now, like I said, go away, I don't want to talk to you! I don't want any apology, and I don't want you in my life, not even an autograph! The time you truly repent from being a dick, and start be a man, I will listen to you." Izuku said brutally, "And try to press ANY charge, you, the rest, and most your students will PAY!"
"Okay..." Aizawa was currently terrified of this.. Man's newfound viciousness and violence. He had created a monster. He thought about using that collar but.. Judging by his reaction, he would have died. "What have I done?" He whispered only for the teen to glare at him.
"Your life's mistake!" He replied seethingly. "I am free, and that's how I will live and die!" Izuku added with a very serious tone that took 'no' for answer, or there would be literal hell to pay. He also remembered that he gave two tickets, one for Thor and the last for Himiko... Heh, at least the chaos they would provide would be Kurogiri's perfect opportunity. Hopefully?
"Izuku-shonen, what happened? Why did you slam Aizawa to that wall?" All Might arrived, panicked when he heard the slam and seen what he've seen. Izuku remained silent.
"I will show you what he thought would be the most logical thing." Izuku said in a... Trembling tone? He was trembling and shivering. "Mind induction!" He called as the mental images he've seen were now shown to the number one hero.
"Shonen..." He whispered only for Izuku to hug him, tightly.
"Yagi-sensei, he planned to put that collar, that.. That killswitch of a device on me. Me! His old student, because they didn't trust me." He pulled back, yet his grip was tight. His eyes showed nothing but honest fear. "I.. I don't want to live nor die as a slave! All my life I was descriminated against, they saw me as something less than a human, and now this?"
"Shonen, whatever you will do, please know that I have your back. Whether you want to trust me or not, I will make him Pay. This is not something I can remain idle by and watch!" All Might said seriously before he caughed blood, "I swear it!" He said as his eyes were harder, and sharper than any sword. To stoop This low? Does Nedzu knows?
"I.. I want to make you proud. I'm very strong now. I will dedicate everything to you, since you stood with me when everyone else was against me. What I will do may or may not be a catastrophe, but please, don't reject me." Izuku said as tears streamed from his eyes. The older man waited for the kid to continue, "I know that you will never forgive me, and I understand, but.. You were the very first adult, apart from Okaa-san, who I can honestly say I trust!"
"Izuku-shonen, had your heart and objective and drive to save people changed?" Yagi asked Izuku who gave him a very determined look.
"No! I will save EVERYONE who needs my help, consequences be damned!" Izuku replied seriously, "Everyone!" He saw the brightest smile as All Might returned to his muscular form.
"Well said my boy! Whatever you will do, I will always be proud of you!" All Might said in his booming voice before he transformed back into skinny form. "Care to join me for some tea?"
"Well, if it is heavy black tea? Yes!" Izuku replied as Lunch Rush nodded at him and did just that. A good ten minutes later, Izuku was sipping the strong tea, which was.. Very nice really. All Might opted for some green tea. Izuku sighed. How can he break this new to him?
"Something troubling you?" He asked worriedly.
"I.. I don't know what is true and what is false anymore... It's very complicated. I.. I trained my bones off, and yet, I learned many disturbing truths..." Izuku said as he sighed, "No villain is born that way. We all wanted to be the hero in our youth."
"Elaborate my dear boy." All Might said politely as Izuku nodded.
"You see, even pirates have standards. Everyone, no matter how evil they are, at one point in their lives wanted to be the heroes, to save those weaker, those incapable of saving themselves..." Izuku said seriously, "Even the Devil was an Angel at one point, until he did that Sin... Pride. Too much pride, too much ego to see the bigger picture."
"You mean even that... That fiend was a man before he turned to darkness?" All Might asked Izuku who blinked at him in confusion. "My archnemesis?" Izuku shrugged. It wasn't a story he knew anyways...
"Who?" Izuku asked in confusion as All Might sighed and sipped that green tea. Ever since he lost half his lung and his stomach... He could only drink something that his body would absorb. His diet, his stamina... His power...
"The one who caused my this injury.." All Might replied grimly. Izuku listened to him until he finished his story then he sighed. Now at least the story did match at last... Not that he realized at that moment, that a few months later, he will have a very cruel triple choice. Damned if you do this or that or nothing...
"I see. But honestly, what about your next successor, All Might?" Izuku asked seriously as the man laughed as he gave him a very serious look.
"What? I shouldn't be proud of you?" He asked as Izuku sighed. This was not what he meant, as currently, his.. His transfered One For All had changed into something else entirely. Something bigger, stronger and... Deadlier. Izuku realized how powerful his Quirk was, but it also had another element as.. Well, his earlier call he received from the good old Doctor...
His Quirk, if he had enough hatred and negative emotion towards someone, allowed him to absorb and assimilate their Quirk, like All For One... But much more efficient. It was disturbing for Izuku, a lot more than he could admitted. How and why? He still wonders sometimes. However, Symbiosis is definitely his favorite one on the account of allowing those willing to receive a symbiote that allows them to control and improve their Quirks... And give them an amazing physical power. It also allowed him to morph himself into something deadlier... Not that he wanted to use it. Not yet anyways.
Currently, he would limit himself to a few Quirks, so no one can analyze him nor realize his true power level. Safe for Pocket Portal. His... Future boss told him that he stole it after he had one of his subbordinate drug the poor bastard who had it, as it was practically Permeation on steroids. That was really terrifying, the prospect of a Ghost who would... Use it as an assassin, being able to practically be a teleporter, anywhere he wanted, and instantly to boot... It was the only Non-boosted power he had, as boosting it would irreparably damage his eyes to blindness, something was off.. And extremely fishy smelling come to think about it.
Izuku was silent, even if his muttering was usually there, he closed his lips with his own fingers so no one hear his thoughts... Chief among them?
'Why did he took my safety as his utmost priority? Even if I am That valuable of a subject, why?' He asked himself, 'Why did he took the time and effort of doing the.. Right thing, even if he was literally the Devil in human skin? For a kid who had never seen his father like me unless... No way, I doubt Okaa-san would like, let alone love and marry someone like him, would she.. No.'
"Shonen, are you alright?" All Might asked Izuku who sighed.
"Yeah... Well I.. I never met my father." He said dejectedly, "He does call Okaa-san, and even send her letters but... Apart from that? I never seen him, not even a single photo."
"I know that pain. I.. I had a mother figure, but she was killed by him." All Might said seriously, "I will avenge her one day."
"Vengeance is a dangerous path, but there is no better motivation than it." Izuku replied, "We can never return from anger nor hate, look at me. I was probably.. A very good kid, but those three weeks, I discovered who I was.. Someone who was pushed a little too much."
"Izuku-shonen, why did you give Bakugo-shonen that glare?" All Might asked as Izuku sighed. He lifted his shirt and showed him some old scars. "Did he do that?" He asked in horror. Those old burn marks had faded, and would probably dissapear one day, but.. They were old. Very old.
"On accident, probably. But that's not all of it. He bullied me for Eleven years straight, mocked my dream, never told me that it would be dangerous for me, and Never apologized. Post matches, I plan to go with Iida-kun, Shoto-kun, Tokoyami-kun and Ochako-san, and I will tell them EVERYTHING!" Izuku replied as All Might sighed but nodded at him. "Don't be dissapointed in me if you please."
"No, this is your secret to share... But, why would you do that?" He asked as Izuku sighed dejectedly.
"Maybe as a goodbye party?" He asked as All Might sighed, but nodded at him, "Is there anyone you would trust to be a hero at heart?"
"Well, my old Sidekick and Friend, Sir Nighteye, have this kid, Togata Mirio, but he already have a Quirk and I'm... Well, there is something not right.. I have a bad feeling about this." All Might said as Izuku's eyes widened. He remembered that file...
"All Might, it's like an hour something before it begins. Be right back. Please wait for me!" Izuku said as he... Teleported away after he run into a corner with no security camera. All Might drank his tea and the asked for seconds for both of them. Then, Izuku returned, his face was pale.
"Here, that's what I wanted to show you. Eighteen years in which he had it, and he barely used One For All..." Izuku said as he showed him a medical file of a man that died at the tender age of thirty eight.. Of old age? "One For All is an amazing power, but it causes an unmatchable strain on the body. Take me, if it wasn't for something alien that would make me live for seven Centuries and more, I would have probably died."
"Izuku-shonen, what happened, and, should I show this to Mirio-shonen?" Izuku nodded as he took a deep breath.
"I was.. Well, they told me that I lost my Quirk, but it was a ruse, as they gave me something very potent, and it reacted positively with my body, so... Yeah. I'm a superhuman without my Quirk. With it, well... I may be one of the strongest humans alive. But my path is still too long. I'm sorry for Not going the same path, but I swear I will Always do the right thing, consequences be damned!" Izuku replied as his tone and resolve made All Might grin as he ruffled his hair.
"I know you will. And I'm very proud of you. You're like.. You're like the son I never had..." He said dejectedly. "Now, let this old man be your friend and guide whenever you need it!"
"You are not an old man, All Might." Izuku replied while he put both index fingers on the corners of his mouth and smiled, which made the blonde blink, "Always keep on smiling!"
"Izuku-shonen, thank you." He said as Izuku turned to Lunch Rush, and went to the chef calmly.
"Lunch-san, please give me the following items so I can get enough energy." Izuku said as he showed him a small list he had made. And amazingly, they were ready less than twenty minutes later. Izuku bowed at him as he took the containers of rice pudge, two bottles of soda, and two banana bunchs.
They watched in awe how fast Izuku was able to eat these and then, he shook the two bottles over the sink, before he got the fuzz out so they were like energy drinks to him. This was a genius idea.
"Well, with that done, I need a nap." Izuku said as he closed his eye and dozed off. It was until exactly half an hour when he.. Dissapeared in a burst of speed?
He grinned, this was even better than he thought. Well, he used his Velocity mode after all.
He waited until the others would enter in the locker room and boy they were surprised.
"Midoriya, what kind of workouts did you went though?" Kirishima was the first to comment, "Your physic is so manly!"
"Thank, Eiijiro-kun." He replied with a shy smile. He never got used to compliments.
"Dude, bet you can knock down a wall without any difficulty. Lucky you. If you show your gains, girls and women would flock." Sero commented with a grin at his friend who chuckled.
"No seriously, how much do you use as weight?" That was Sato's turn.
"Er, well, currently I keep it to a ton at most since.." The green haired replied with a lot of embarassement, blushing.
"A TON?" Shoji asked worriedly, "Brother, ease up! What if you hurt yourself?"
"Nah, it didn't happen!" Izuku replied as he smiled, "Don't worry about me, please?"
Shoji was skeptic, and decided to use all of his hands into one very strong grip. To his surprise? Izuku's grip was even stronger.
"Holy.. Dude, what kind of training and diet you went through?" Kaminari asked as Izuku grinned at them.
"A lot of milk, fructose and honey casts, meat, all kind of it, eggs, veggetables, and fruits. Oh, and about ten bottles of Coca Cola every day, and I pushed myself harder than ever... When you can heal faster than anyone else, might as well use it at the most.." He replied seriously.
"That's just.. Not fair at all!" Mineta said only for Black Shadow to slap him.
"Leave him alone!" Bakugo barked angrily. "Izuku, I.."
"Save it! I swear, if we fight? I will take those eleven years from you!" Izuku replied with an extremely cold glare. These were not the eyes of a man. Everyone jumped away when they've seen his aura, with the exception of Shoto and Tokoyami. Izuku blinked and walked away, he wore his sport uniform, which was kinda... Tight, but loose enough. However, it was ripped at the end of his deltoid muscle, just above his biceps. His muscular arms were shown to the world.
"That's not the chest of a man, nor the back of a teenager..." Shoto commented as Koda nodded in agreement.
"That's the back of a father, not a son." Kirishima said as tears streamed from his eyes, "He's so cool and manly."
"I just don't understand how he gained that much muscle mass..." Iida commented, while he, Koda, Shoji, Sato and Kirishima were buff, they weren't.. Well, Izuku have the muscles of a Tiger more than a man, especially for his height.
Stadium
Himiko and Thor were there. Izuku saw them with his abnormally keen eyes. Mei and Shinso waved at him and he was there. He understood their plan.. He smirked at them, but nodded nonetheless. The three prodigies agreed not to fight one another. It would be conter productive. Shinso, against his own will, felt like betting on Izuku. Last night, the three had a common talk over the phone and they came to the consensus : That the injustice Izuku suffered was something unforgiveable.
"We're with you!" Mei said seriously as Izuku nodded at her when Shinso just smiled warmly at him.
"Now, begin!" They heard the signal and Izuku dissapeared?
"Where is Midoriya? He's gone!" Present Mic announced only for All Might's voice to be heard..
"He finished the race!" It was barely three seconds, and as the camera zipped, they looked with shoc how he was panting, and smiling, he won.
Three seconds and a half earlier
"One Power For All Full Cowl : Velocity mode!" Izuku said as electricity was formed around his body, he saw everything in slow motion, everything became so painfully slow, and he saw everything clearly, which was the power of stimulation.
He heard the voice of the signal, even if it was too long and he dashed.. He kicked the robots away, one by one they fell, he used some as springboard, and he continued to bounce from one robot to another, he was able to see his trajectory perfectly.
Then he saw those ropes, he realized that he can use them to pull himself.. From one place to another. He gripped and pulled while kicking harder than ever. One jump to another, one rope walk from end to end, everything was so slow...
Then he saw the clear patch and realized, this was a trap. He crouched and launched himself from one end to another.. And he crossed the line! Three seconds flat, and he was feeling very winded. However, he won, and these were the longest three seconds of his entire life so far.
Back to the current time
Izuku panted hard, trying to recollect himself. Could he had just teleported? Yes. Would that be a fair race? No! So this was the reach of his ability? Stimulation was a great Quirk alright, especially when it came up to amplify his reflexes to an unmatchable speed, but using it, Starlight Velocity and Full Cowl? It took a toll, a very heavy one, on his stamina, and he had one hell of a breakfeast which he digested. It was a wise choice not to use Gearshift nor Fa Jin.. Nor Black Whip!
"I'm still... hauh, hah, hah, too.. Hah, huh, hah, weak!" Izuku said as he panted, taking greedy gulps of air.
"WAY TO GO, IZUKU-KUN!" He heard Himiko's cheer. "IZUKU! IZUKU! IZUKU! IZUKU!" She cheered at the top of her lungs and the entire stadium errupted in cheers. He blinked once, twice, thrice and fall backward to the bliss of unconsciousness, his face was red and it was flaring...
"IZUKU-SHONEN!" All Might rushed at his side and sprinkled his face with a bit of water. The teen's eyes fluttered open. "Are you alright?"
"I... I was never this cheered before..." He started to bawl his eyes out.
Meanwhile, Inko was leaving a waterfall of tears, proud tears as Kurogiri smiled while Tenko was patting her back in comfort. And the oldest Villain was grinning like a madman as he and the Doctor were watching with utter pride, the teen who flipped the entire naysays to him off.
Shinso meanwhile rubbed his head. The last time he mocked All Might to test Izuku, he receiver a brutal (well it was very held back, let's face it!) headbutt that rattled his brain enough to make him regret it. He and everyone else continued their race. Izuku waited there, once he got his breathes back under control as Shoto and Katsuki were his runner ups. He smirked at Shoto and nodded at him.
"How the fuck did you get this much speed?" Bakugo asked as Izuku shrugged.
"Midoriya, you are strong." Shoto said as Izuku nodded at him, "If we will fight, come at me with everything you have."
"Are you sure, Shoto? What if... What if you die?" The green haired teen asked him worriedly Shoto sighed but shrugged.
"Well, it's better than this." He replied only for Izuku to glare at him.
"Don't. Just.. Don't you dare thinking that your life isn't worth it! Ask Mr. Asshole over there who told me to swan dive from the third floor... Oh, I wasn't joking." Izuku said as he showed Bakugo his.. Handiwork, "I will leave much worse." And the usually explosive blonde felt how Izuku was serious, and it was terrifying. His very instincts screamed at him to run.
"Stupid Deku.." He begun only for Izuku to spit something at his eyes. And soon, the scream of agony was heard.
"Did you just turn him into a demon?" Shoto asked Izuku who laughed at him.
"Nah, just something irritant to the eyes." He smirked. And the two looked at one another, "You have someone you want to kill too?"
"What? No. But there is someone I hate." Shoto replied, "Are you related to All Might?"
"No. But he's the coolest Uncle figure I ever had." Izuku replied as Shoto sighed. How would he say this? Izuku was the first one to sympathise with him...
Cavalry race
Izuku winked at his team. While Shinso told him that he doesn't want to join him, Ochako, Tokoyami and Mei were with him. Now then, he had a few nasty surprises for everyone... He told them that no matter what, they will win.
"I swear we will be the first team, but... There is a favor : I can only use That for less than ten minutes straight. If you see anything sneaking, please warn me!" Izuku told his teammates, "Shadow-chan, we're counting on you and Tokoyami-kun. Mei-san, please watch any blindside attacks. Ochako-san, make me lighter, please?"
"Midoriya, while you do weigh a hefty load... We don't mind a lot." Tokoyami replied as Izuku sighed.
"One hundred and Fifteen kilos!" He replied calmly as the two girls were blinking owlishly as Tokoyami nodded.
"I take it back!" He replied, "Shadow agrees with you!"
"In return of your trust, I plan to give them a few nasty surprises..." Izuku smirked as he took a scarf which he wrapped over his neck and mouth, and hid the headband underneath it, or rather, underneath his hidden scarf, "This is not against the rules, nor keeping it in my mouth, is it?"
"Yes to both!" Midnight replied as Izuku cursed and made it... Dissapear.
"Spoilsports and... Anyways, the first five minutes are the hardest!" Izuku said as he was ready to activate his absolutely favourite Quirk : Pocket Portal.
'If I don't use it for anything else, I have a solid ten minutes of intangibility, full body. However, I don't need that, which means that.. I can only use it whenever I must to avoid any attack on my headband while at the same time I can use tact and pull wherever I look. Since this secondary ability is not linked to my eyes, it won't be very strainous... I see, this would definitely...' He mumbled until Ochako tapped him.
"Dekiro-kun, you are mumbling, again!" She pointed as, in the stands, Himiko kinda fumed, kinda wanted to kiss that girl.. Or both. Who knows what's on her mind?
"Er, sorry!" He said, "Shadow-chan, Mei-san, we're counting on you two for the thievery part! Ochako-san, you're the reason why we will win." Izuku reminded them, "Tokoyami-kun, forgive me for being a heavy guy..."
"No, you weight less than a kilogram now." He replied with a smile on the inside. "Count on me to protect your blindspots."
"Thank you, for lending me your trust and your power. We will win!" Izuku vowed as Himiko and Thor smirked. Izuku still have no idea about the extent of Pocket Portal, apart that unless it's a ten minutes straight, he can't use it to be fully intengible. However, he can use it partially.. Still, he wanted to leave no risk for himself and his teammates especially. Especially them.
And so it begun.. It was a war where they were the center of it. Izuku was calm during the entire time, as Portal Pocket activated that secondary ability of intangibility on reflexes. Unless he wills it Not to, it's a passive ability, which was even better...
After a solid five minutes in which he didn't use it to its full extent, he finally realized : He can maintain it to the end, but better be safe than sorry.. He used his tact to rip off some of the headbands, to aid his teammates. Something that made them even more shocked is that he pulled them towards him at the same time.
"Nine Minutes!" He said seriously, "Now, don't worry, time's up!" Izuku told them as Ochako had a worried expression.
"What do you mean, Deki-kun?" She asked in curiosity as Mei sighed.
"Now I can keep it to the end." Izuku smirked as he realized : He didn't neet to defend anymore. "I'm trusting you, Tokoyomi-kun, Shadow-chan, Ochako-san, Mei-san!" Izuku grinned confidently as Shinso blinked and then he nodded at him.
"Show us who you truly are, World changer!" He whispered as Izuku's keen eyes caught him and he nodded. All he had to do was to wait..
And Shadow was vicious. Very vicious, except for one small detail : Kaminari's and Bakugo's flashy attacks, which weakened her. However, Izuku lifted the entire team. In the end? They won and caused the elimination of many team. Even if Todoroki was about to use his left side, he opted not to.
Break
"Shoto, that was cool. I have to tell you that your left side.." Izuku begun as he put a friendly hand over his classmate's head to ruffle his hair, only for his eyes to widen, "What's the matter?"
"I vowed to never use it! Had you ever heard of Quirk Marriages?" Shoto asked Izuku who gave him a confused look. "Well, I'm the fourth child, his.. Masterpiece. As I can use his fire and my mother's ice without any ill effects.."
"Shoto, you misunderstood. I wanted to tell you that this is YOUR power, not his!" Izuku replied as he smiled at him, "I have a small secret. I can see the people's Quirks differently. You're actually different from him. So, please, don't hold back, and don't let him control your life."
"How did you know?" He asked as Izuku winked at him.
"I have a kind hand..." He replied cryptically, trying to avoid the entire thing.
"Elaborate, how strong are you?" He asked seriously as Izuku sighed.
"For me? To have a fair fight I have to... Fight all of you at the very same time." Izuku replied calmly.
"What had they done to you?" Shoto asked worriedly as Izuku sighed.
"They made me into a monster... But I am no one monster but myself alone!" Izuku replied as he remembered how brutal the training, the books, the fact that he thought of himself as Quirkless, how Himiko helped him find himself, and the dam broke...
"Midoriya! Hold yourself!" Shoto said as Izuku sighed dejectedly.
"Shoto, let's... Let's meet one last time as friends and classmates, okay?" Izuku said as he sighed. "I.. I need to talk to my other friends."
"Sure. I would like to hang out with you sometimes." Shoto replied as Izuku nodded. Endeavor will pay.. He thought darkly as an idea came to his mind. Thor would definitely be... Right there!
Izuku rushed faster than ever. It was his only chance to make that.. Wife and children abuser get some payback.
Shinso looked in fear as he saw the monster Izuku talked to. Said monster just nodded and dissapeared. That was something scary, these two were more like old friends than anything else.
"Who was that?" He asked as Izuku shrugged. "Fine."
"My friend!" He replied mirthfully. Shinso blinked. "Nah, you better think of something else. If your strategy is to rile me up... Then it would be extremely painful."
"You're a tough guy." Shinso said as Izuku shrugged.
"For you, both are true." Izuku replied as Shinso gave him a soft drink. "That's kind of you." Izuku said as he drank with his new friend. "So, you got bullied a lot, and failed because your Quirk isn't flashy enough, huh? Well... I can relate. Except I was Quirkless... Then my two benefactors and my friend gave me enough power to change everything."
"You plan to change the world, huh? For some odd reason, I can totally believe that you can pull it off!" Shinso smirked. "My strategy against you? I will just give up!"
"Well, at least you are wise enough." Mei arrived and said bluntly, "I mean, Midori is terrifying. Even I felt intimidated at first, and then his behavior threw me off... Well, he at least will do his best."
"Heh, that I know. Izuku, for being my first true friend, I will follow you." Shinso declared as Izuku blinked. How? Oh, the fact that they talked for a while about their efforts and injustice of his situation?
"Do you plan to return to the hero course?" Mei asked as Izuku punched a wall down in rage and frustration.
"No! After the fact that they want to make me practically a slave? Hell No!" Izuku replied seethingly, "A device with a killswitch? Really? Not even villains would steep that low!"
"No! Please tell me you are jocking!" Shinso asked in horror. Izuku sighed but shook his head. This was too much! "This is..."
"And it was nothing but the beginning. The commission? They wanted me and Mom to go through an operation, which the ministry itself green lit. It have eighty five percent of failure and death..." Izuku replied seethingly even more. "I'm fucking done!"
"Then you are our leader and Captain.. Isn't that right, Hatsume-san?" Shinso asked as she grinned.
"Of course we are with you!" She replied as Shinso didn't use his Quirk.
"Then you are the third and fourth respectively on my team. That giant is the first mate... And he was the Captain back then of his own crew." Izuku said with a small smile, "Call him Ryu, for now!"
"Is he really a dragon?" Mei asked as Shinso nodded.
"No, he's a Giant." Izuku replied, "But worry not..." He begun only for his phone to ring. "Er, urgeant call. Yes, boss?" He asked as Tenko smirked at Inko's side.
"Spectacular performance. And I am cutting you a check!" He replied seriously.
"Okay, but if the check bounces, so will you!" Izuku replied and he got a bunch of chuckles. "So?"
"It won't. I will explain on more details later. Inko-obasan agreed." Tenko replied as Izuku smirked.
"What kind of job?" He asked as Tenko smirked. He meant what official name.
"Lab assistant for a Doctor. Now, see you later." He replied as he smiled. Izuku will finally join their party. He and his Sensei talked a lot about the teen and decided to allow him to have his own group... This will be a better way.
Izuku now remembered in full detail everything... He sighed. How messed up was their society, a question he was finding dreading and foreboding, the more he thought about the answer. How many were like Shinso, Mei, Himiko, Tenko, Himself... Gentle Criminal? He heard about Stain, and kinda felt like he was.. Somehow rightful? He never targeted any good and decent hero, and if he judged most of their mettle, from an outside perspective...
He laughed bitterly, how he took his first life, and how he found out that Himiko was unable to lie, how she and him bonded fast about the fact that they were repressing themselves, but where she accepted herself, he didn't.
Tenko told him how he was holding himself back. Told him how he would sometimes feel an itch. How even after everything, they discarded him, ignoring his willpower, his kindness, his intelligence, his mettle... He told him about how he planned to take down All Might, but when he heard of Izuku's story, he talked to a monitor in privately and returned with a sad smile. He told him of everything, and apart from One single time, he was always truthful to him...
His thoughts were now interrupted with All Might who arrived to talk to him.
"Hey, Yagi-sensei." Izuku said weakly, his eyes were teary.
"Izuku-shonnen, what is bothering you?" He asked worriedly as the teen sighed.
"I... I failed to protect your treasure.. I also, got a job as a lab assistant.. I doubt Okaa-san would allow me to continue on this path." Izuku replied solemnly, "Aizawa said that I was not fit to be a hero. Whether he pushes for assault charges or not, he better not try Ryu's patience. It's very thin..."
"It's alright. Besides, if you want, I can talk to her." All Might told his successor and student.
"No.. I.. I don't think I can keep walking on this path, but I swear I will do the right thing." Izuku vowed seriously as All Might smiled at him. At least this kid seems honest.
"Well, you honesty is admirable." All Might said as Izuku grinned at him.
"Because you never lie.. Why should I?" Izuku winked before he smiled, "I can't lie easily.."
"Exact words, half truths... These are the best lies." All Might replied seriously, "Those who lie totally are easily caught."
"Which is good, since I removed all of my lies. At least I'm true, and I know the truth about myself." Izuku replied as his face soured. 'That I am no hero, but someone who was abused one time too many... What is a hero? What am I supposed to do? Where am I supposed to go now?' His thoughts were interrupted by his friend and mentor who tapped him. He blinked.
"Izuku-shonnen, good luck on your life. Just.. Show them who you are, and take care." All Might said as the teen smiled at him. He did not really regret these... Rabid monsters he killed. Something that terrified him until he understood : Their society was too flawed to survive... He remembered everyone's pleas, their problems, their pasts, their.. Traumas and mental slash spiritual injuries that never healed properly... No! He can't abandon those ignored by their society, consequences be damned. If doing the right thing would make him a villain, so fucking be it!
'I made my mind. I can't allow this to continue, not as someone who have enough power to stop it!' Izuku thought as his eyes became hard and sharp with determination. Now, he have one choice : To end the suffering and injustice once and for all. This will be an all out war, and thus, he will say his goodbyes to his old classmates, to his old life... And try to protect his mother with the best of his ability.
With a newfound resolve and determination about his life goal, he walked outside to his first match. Izuku looked at Cementos who announced the rules, nodded at Shinso and darted when he heard the signal, grabbed his friend, and gently pushed him out of the boundaries.
Fights (Izuku's curbstomp battles!)
"Winner, Midoriya Izuku!" Present Mic announced only for Izuku to raise his friend up and announce something... Unexpected.
"Hitoshi Shinso's case is one of the wrong things that made me disgusted! This guy's Quirk.. Shinso, ask me something!" Izuku said seriously.
"How old are you?" Shinso caught Izuku's strategy.
"Fifteen!" He replied and he was now walking around. Then Shinso broke his Quirk.
"Had seen? Even the juggernaut was not immune!" Shinso said as Izuku laughed.
"Hope that wasn't himuliating." He said with a mirthful smile, "So, can someone who's Quirkless like me become a hero now? Can someone who's Quirk isn't flashy like Shinso become a hero? Not in our age, despite our skills and power and strategic capability."
"To be honest, I never thought to be this expressive but... I thought myself as cursed my entire life... Until he helped me out... And he's the fist one to trust me not as a hero, but as a man of honor, despite my Quirk being called useless and villainous. Izuku, can you do me a favor?" Shinso said with a smile, a small one at meast. Izuku nodded at him.
"Go ahead!" He replied, showing his honest trust.
"Win this for us, my friend!" He replied as Izuku smiled warmly.
"I will. You don't have to worry, for I am here now!" He replied seriously. Inko was now crying a waterfall. Tenko asked Kurogiri to bring his aunt all the tissues he can... And to dump them in the dumbster. And he did just that.
During the next matches, Izuku was just writing his notes and mummbling about the students quirks, secretly at least. Those would be very handy one of these days... But for now? Now they needed to just relax and wait for whatever life will throw at them.
Then it was his turn against Todoroki Shoto, whome he usually call by his name, Shoto.. He saw his memories and the least he could do was to help him by not reminding him of his.. Pain. As soon as they were face to face, Izuku raised his hand.
"Before we fight, I want to tell Shoto-kun one thing : Shoto, this is not His power, it's your own power. You should remember this. Now, give me everything you hace, or.. You will lose!" Izuku said seriouly and before Cementous could say anything, he immediately started his newest form...
"All Power For One Full Cowl : Balistic mode!" Izuku said as electricity was surrounding him while he took the most his body can handle for now, which was no more than five percent.
Shoto replied by starting to activate his ice.
"Begin!" Cementos said only for Izuku to throw a blast of air and lightning and shockwaves at Shoto's ice... With nothing but a finger flick. The teen smirked as the ice desintegrated and he jumped backward : "Typhoon, Fire Breath : Great Fire of Destruction : Ranbu (Wild dance)!" And a spiral that engulfed the sea of flames that he projected was speeding to Shoto who erected more and more Ice which subliminated the instant it got caught against the white hot flames until he fought fire with his own fire. Izuku smirked as he sped through the flames 'Love Portal the most! Definitely!' He thought as he sped towards Shoto who now was cornered when Izuku's free hand sent another balistic attack towards him... Only it was a distraction.
"Midoriya Izuku had dissapeared!" Present Mic said only for said teen to appear behind Shoto, who retaliated by a fire and ice enhanced swings... That did nothing. Izuku jumped and kicked him on the back before he dissapeared in a black vortex that only a giant was able to see.
"How many Quirks does he have?" Aizawa asked as Midnight's eyes widened at the proficient of the teen's usage of his Quirks. Little did she know that he was holding back... Then, they saw Izuku reappearing and Shoto was already down on the ground, not realizing that he grabbed him from his blind spot and threw him from that very Vortex which, again, no one but Thor was able to track down..
"Winner : The Invincible Midoriya Izuku!" Present Mic declared as the entire Stadium errupted, Himiko was yelling about his skills at the top of her surprisingly strong lungs. The entirety of 1-A were shocked by the display of power. All Might especially boomed.
"AMAZING SKILLS!" He yelled at the mic, almost deafening Present Mic, "Izuku is amazing!"
"Er.. Well.. I.. I just trained very hard?" He offered as he saw Shoto only to rush at him and offer a hand, "Shoto-kun, I'm.." He begun only for Endeavor to arrive.
"What a dissapointment, Shoto." He scolded only for Izuku to glare at him. However, Thor was faster.
"How about a fight? You and me, one on one, so these fine folk see what kind of hero you are, number two!" Thor said seriously, his eyes were lit in rage.
"You're on it!" Endeavor said as All Might sighed.
"Begin!" They heard and... Endeavor was sent like a bullet with one single backhand slap.
"He's boring!" Thor commented. "Oh, and call me Ryu or Kyoryu or Maryu!" He introduced himself.
Shoto just laughed his ass off at this. Izuku smiled as he helped him to his feet and grinned at him.
"Thank Kami you laughed. This is totally worth it!" Izuku said with a grin. "So, let's meet again. Oh, and Bakugo will pay..."
"Fuck him up, Midoriya!" Shoto said as Izuku nodded at him.
"Gladly, brother!" He replied.
"Ryu-senen, can I ask you about you Quirk?" All Might asked the Giant who snorted.
"I am actually Quirkless." He replied, "But I have something else.. Which I share with this young man." He pointed at Izuku, "He earned it!"
"I agree. He's kind to a fault." He replied, "So, do you still want to fight me?"
"Not really, but.. A five minutes spar so we give these people something to enjoy?" He offered as they nodded and then, Izuku was watching their battle with awe as he jumped away.
And boy how did the two behemoths fought was amazing to say the very least. However, Izuku caught something very strange in Thor. He trained with the.. Monster enough to know that he was Holding back, tremendously. And that was meaning one thing..
'He respects All Might as a man and a hero to hold back, but not as a warrior... Heh, small wonder. Thor loves to spar with kind men, and Yagi-sensei is holding back too.' Izuku said as he saw that it was a five minutes round.
"Alright, time's up!" Present Mic yelled as Thor sighed. "Spectacular spar between the two behemoths, All Might and Mr. Drake!"
"Sorry, I held back.." Thor and All Might said at the same time and blinked.
"Do you drink?" Thor asked him seriously as All Might sighed.
"Only soda and tea." He replied as Thor nodded. Izuku sighed and threw a can of soda to each.
"Thanks for the show!" He said with a small smile. At least... They humiliated two heroes.
Izuku whistled about Bakugo and Ochako's fight. That girl was vicious. He didn't spend enough time with her, but boy he wished he did.. But he got kidnapped so... Sue him!
"You're next, De.." He begun only for Izuku to remind him of his past sin. "No hard feelings if you lose!"
"No, the one who will lose is you!" Izuku said calmly as Bakugo lunged at him.. Only to pass through a ghost. Then Aizawa did a Huge mistake : He tried to capture Izuku who was unimpressed when the scarf didn't even touch him, but phased through him.
"Calm down, Rabidzawa!" Izuku called angrily. Present Mic put a hand over his mouth. "First you expelled me, because you didn't even bother to read my file, leading to my kidnapping, then, you want to put a slave collar on my neck, and finally, this? I am so done with it, so... FUCK YOU ERASERHEAD!" He said as a lightning bolt came crashing down into him, frying the man instantly. Izuku raised his arms in defense. "WASN'T ME!" He yelled only for Thor to appear, his hammer in hand, and defibrilated the charred Teacher.
"No, this was my very last warning. Next time, YOU WILL GREET THIS HAMMER WITH YOUR FUCKING FACE!" That roar made everyone on edge.
Final fight
Izuku looked at Bakugo with desinterest. He knew he can fuck him up in was too many ways. Now however, he had a lesson to hammer down on his thick skull : How to properly be a human...
And as soon as Bakugo attacked, Izuku grabbed him, and slammed him. He came back and tried to use his Quirk.. Only for him to realize : Izuku stopped his Quirk completely.
"What had you done?" Katsuki asked in horror as Izuku slammed a heavy knee in his groin.
"Eleven years of abuse, remember? Because I was weaker than you..." He said as he kicked his ribs, breaking them, "Swan dive?" He asked as he stomped on his stomach, and while Bakugo raised up and tried to fight back, he was kicked down to the ground as Izuku delivered a hammer fist to his nose. "This scar!" He yelled in rage as he lifter his shirt, Shinso, Tokoyami, Shoto, Tenya, Ochako, and Mei raised their hands to their mouths. "Seven years old! All I wanted was to help you. You left me to die!" He said as Katsuki gave him an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry.." He whispered only for Izuku to punch him hard enough to break his knee.
"YOU WILL BE!" He roared as he unloaded a pummeling barrage of elbows, knees, kicks, punches before grabbing his collar and headbutting him a few dozens of times. Then, when Katsuki's chest barely moved, he released him, "Now we're even. Stay the fuck away from me!"
"Winner... Midoriya Izuku!" Cementos said but it was a pyhric victory.
"Mind Induction!" Izuku said as he sent the images of his suffering, along many others to the heroes present. The he gave a dull look...
"I quit!" He muttered seriously. 'After all, if they allowed HIM to remain in the hero course, why should I go back? The commission and ministry had agreed to make my life a living hell and thus, I have to make an announcement.'
"FORGIVE ME FOR MY NEXT THING!" Izuku yelled before he sighed, "MIND INDUCTION!" He barked as he showed everyone who still have no idea about what happened.
All Might was outraged, Aizawa was shocked by how heavy his sin was, Nedzu was now plotting to wage a war, Shinso and Mei were now looking at him with tear filled eyes, Recovery Girl felt horrible. The Detetive Tsukauchi was the first to jump to his position.
"Midoriya-kun, what you showed, is it the truth?" The detective asked in a microphone.
"I swear I showed nothing but the entire truth which was hidden!" Izuku said seriously. "This Quirk doesn't allow you to control anything you send!" The detective looked solemn.
"I am Detective Tsukauchi, and my Quirk told me that what Midoriya Izuku-kun had just shown us is nothing but the truth!" The detective's words made an outrage. Izuku shrugged.
Then, when it was his turn to make a speech, he smirked. Now, with Thor at his side, he felt invincible. Sure, he had his intangibility, but with the world's strongest creature... He knew that he can delived his message in full.
"A month ago, I didn't score a single point in the entrance exam. My Quirk would have killed me back then. However, I pushed through the fear, and entered only by virtue of rescue points. All Might himself said that it was that which made me a hero. Alas, not everyone is sharing that notion. In my file, Quirk file, it said that my body would have EXPLODED had I practiced with it, and it only started to finally adapt. However, on the very first day, Aizawa Shota, better known as the underground hero Eraserhead, decided to expell me on the ground that I never tried to train my Quirk and have zero potential, which was not only stupid in my opinion, but illegal to boot, on the Very first day! And what's worse? He never bothered to read my file. Now, before you start your outrage, things got even better. I was kidnapped that very day. During these three weeks and something, I got experimented upon, but.. It was a blessing in disguise. Call it a Stockholm syndrom, but I found those who are willing to accept me, Quirk or not! Which brings me.. Hitoshi Shinso and Hatsume Mei, despite their outstanding potential as heroes, they were deemed better suited on General Education and Support Class respectively. Now, what makes a hero a hero? Is it their Quirk? No! The old era defines a hero as someone who would do the right thing, be a paragon of justice, morality and decency. Someone who throw their lives away to save people. But for the Commission, who wanted to risk my own and Mom's life in a Fifteen percent success rate of an operation, to transfer her Quirk to me. Then, when we refused, and they learned of me having a very strong Quirk, how did they react? If you thought about putting these killswitch devices of a collar, turning me into THEIR SLAVE, then you are totally and absolutely CORRECT! Now, do I want to continue this path? No! I hereby quit the entire Hero business, since I am not allowed to dream, and all it was... Is to save people's lives. I, Midoriya Izuku, quit U.A. forever for I found a job, against ALL ODDS! And my new boss respected my competance and intelligence before my Quirk, but let me ask you, society of Quirks... MAKE YOUR MIND! From one point : You cannot use your Quirk to save people's lives, and you rather put them as Quirkless, but you drove more than half of the Quirkless to Suicide before they even reach Eighteen years of age, before they get a driving liscence, before they even taste booze... What do you exactly want? Is this a society of heroes, or a society that's rushing to its death like a bunch of Lemmings? I want to ask you, is there a villainous Quirk? NO! Quirks are not what makes the heroes, but it is YOU who do so." Izuku finished his heartfelt speech, "Now, goodbye, U.A. and please, do not try to contact me."
Shinso and Mei arrived at his side, Thor was their shield...
Then a blonde rushed like a bullet towards him and tackled him into the ground before she planted a soul searing kiss on his lips. When they broke up, she grinned at him.
"Best speech ever, Izuku-kun!" She complimented her boyfriend who blinked. All Might turned to the entirety of 1-A who nodded seriously.
"Izuku-shonen, what are you going to do now?" All Might asked the teen who sighed.
"Vigilantism forever." He replied coldly, "And my job." He added as they entered the locker room...
"Yes?" He asked as Tokoyami and Shoto arrived.
"Midoriya-san, are you sure about your decision?" Tokoyami asked and Izuku nodded solemnly. "Well, we wish you the best. But we can hang out, right?"
"Oh you bet! Of course I would love it! Please tell them in about.. An hour or so?" Izuku said as he hurried up and Shinso blinked. Mei sighed as she finished changing her gears.
"Midoriya, thank you. Thank you Ryu-san." He said with a small, ghost of a smile.
"You're welcome Shoto." Thor replied with a smirk. "Well, see you then. For now, we have something to do..." He said as Izuku saw Mei, he waved at her and she was close to them. Then, they swirled away...
Midoriya household
Despite the laughter and jokes, Izuku was sighing. That stunt was heavy...
"Cousin, here. Like I promised, your check!" Tenko said as Izuku smirked at him. Now about his payment...
"I wasn't joking, you know?" He asked as the older man shrugged. He can live with that.
"Feel free. Now, good luck!" He replied as the teen dissapeared. Inko blinked as Tenko turned to Kurogiri who nodded.
"Thank you for hosting us here, Inko-obasan. Now, we're leaving. Himiko, Thor, you two stay. It would help you out. I.. I have to go back to work." Tenko said as he sighed. How can he tell...
"Say, Tenko-kun, who's your boss?" Inko asked and he almost felt badly. All For One, Japan's boogeyman.
"Well, I call him Sensei and he's.. A misunderstood man. But if he would agree, I will arrange a meeting." He said as he hugged her gently, "Arigato, Oba-san. The Doctor is a good man, more or less, and he pays handsomely.. You may know him."
"Yeah. He told me that my husband told him about our son and that... Tenko-kun? Kurogiri-kun?" She asked as both exchanged look and nodded. "Well.. If you want to offer Izuku a job, feel free. But only as a part time."
"Well, whatever the job is, I think you should discuss it with your husband." Kurogiri said as the two warped. Thor sat down while Himiko grinned. Finally, she will get to talk with the nicest person she knew that's tied with her Izuku...
Then, they heard some knocks on the door. Izuku was still to return. Inko opened the door, lo and behold, All Might was there with Aizawa..
"You, get in. You, get out of here before I make you greet this hammer with your face!" Thor warned as he ushered the woman and skeletal man inside.
"You know I can press assault charges." He replied only for Thor to laugh at him.
"Go ahead, and I will kill each and everyone you send to me in this pathetic planet of yours!" He replied seriously as Inko sighed. "Go on! Try me!" He said as Eraserhead used his Quirk.. To no avail. While his capture weapon was about to move, Thor clenched it in an iron grip and used it to strangle him.
"Ryu-kun, let him go please!" All Might said only for the giant to spit.
"Pathetic!" He said with utter disgust. He then removed the scarf from the unconscious man and ripped his clothes with his bare hands and walked outside. He returned later... "Trash like him is bad for the health!"
"Can I understand why you hate him this much?" Inko asked as Thor was barely holding himself.
"I need an ashtray, please!" He said seriously. As soon as she brought it, he ignited a thick cigar and smoked it in one single drag. "That accursed swine! He wanted to put a controlling collar on Izuku! A collar with a killswitch!"
"He what?" Inko asked in shock as All Might bowed, but the giant was now holding a livid Himiko.
"I will stab him, cut him to pieces and feed him to the pigs! That fucker dares to hurt my Izuku-kun?" Himiko said as she kicked and squirmed to no avail. Then the Giant grabbed Inko.
"What are you doing? I will remove his eyes, kidney and heart!" She replied angrily, her mama bear was kicking in... Until Izuku got inside and saw All Might.
"Yo, Yagi-sensei."Izuku greeted with an emotionless mask. "Hope you didn't came here to force me back..."
"No. I came here to apologize for failing you." He said honestly as Himiko dropped her knife, Inko blinked.
"He's... He's honest!" The blonde declared as Izuku sighed when All Might gave them a confused look. An explanation was required.
"She can smell lies, even subconscious ones. She's.. She helped me finding out the answer to all of my questions." Izuku replied seriously, touching his left shoulder... Where she bit him for the first time. He smiles in nostalgia. Himiko became much more subdued since then... Especially when he bit her bad, then he devoured a steak with its bones. Then again, it was a scary wake-up call for her. "Apart from that, and apology accepted. I know how hard you tried to find me.. How sleepless you were... How much you pushed yourself to find me."
"Izuku-shonnen, are you sure that you don't want to start in another school? It doesn't need to be Yuuei." He replied as Izuku sighed dejectedly.
"Even if I start anew, all they would care about is my power, not who I am. Them at least accepted me as who I am..." Izuku replied bitterly, he had a stone in his hand. "I mean, I couldn't being a hero as a Quirkless man, but even as a Quirk user... I got expelled on day one... Wait, was that your job Ryu?"
"Yes, and I considered crucifying him in his birthday suit!" The giant replied seethingly, "Making my Leader into a slave will he?"
"Slave?" Inko asked as she was trembling. Himiko's eyes flashed only for Izuku to hug her tightly.
"Himi... Please." He begun and she nodded in his shoulder.
"Izuku-kun, you are.. Everything to me." She confessed. Her shyness and pride be damned. "You accepted me as who I am. Even with my.. Evil Quirk."
"Hold on, Miss, what happened?" All Might asked as Himiko sighed and told them about her past. The abuse, the so called therapy, which was the most torturous thing she lived until her graduation day, how her parents threw everything but her school uniforms...
"I want to rip them to shreds!" Izuku mumbled darkly.
"Not if I get them first!" All Might barked angrily.
"Oh no, I want to do it!" Inko added.
"Please stop, they.. They're not even worth it." Himiko replied as Izuku gave her a very worried look, "It's okay, Izuku-kun. I got over it." She replied as he sighed. Thor just closed his eyes and sighed in sorrow.
"Shonen, tell me, what do you plan to do now?" Yagi asked as Izuku shrugged.
"Work, train, save everyone ignored..." Izuku replied, "The usual."
"Heh, you are a hero alright." Himiko said as she kissed his cheek, making him blush and stutter something, Thor and Inko chuckling. All Might smiled at the interraction.
"Shojo, did you love him because of who he is or because of his.. Power?" All Might asked seriously as Himiko gave him a hurt look, "Sorry, it's just that.."
"No, it's alright. Well, you see? All my life I was rejected by everyone, but he.. He accepted me as who I am, as what I am, and he helped me with everything he have and more. He's MY hero, my love, and he moved to save me when he thought I was in danger... Everyone else just ignored my cries for help, while he didn't." She replied with a sad smile, "My life isn't enough to repay Izuku-kun."
"Heh, I never thought I would say this but.. Please take care of him." He asked politely. "He's a handful, scarred, and he might lose himself, but you two seem like good people. Please protect him."
"With our lives and more!" Thor replied, "I lost enough to become heartless, but he.. He made me the man I once was."
"That's all what I'll ask. Now, Midoriya-san, Izuku-shonnen, I will be leaving. Please take care." All Might said as Izuku smiled at him.
"You should find a successor. Someone kind and compationate above all else." Izuku said seriously as All Might blinked at him. "I wish you all the luck in your future quests.. And thank you."
Cafe
Everyone from 1-A safe for Bakugo went to the cafe Izuku told them to meet him. To their surprise, they found Shinso and Mei, they had already reserved a few booths. Then, Izuku had finally arrived, the Giant walking behind him protectively and Himiko was latched like a vice to his arm. Ochako felt.. Unhappy about that.
"Dekiro-kun, you never told me you have a sister." Ochako joked only for Izuku to give her an apologetic look.
"Er, Ochako-chan, Toga-chan is my Girlfriend..." He replied as everyone sputtered, Tokoyami blinked, Shoto stared at Izuku, Eiijiro and Mina gave him two thumbs up, Mineta cried tears of blood, Kaminari and Sero sighed. Shoji and Sato high fived... Momo blinked, Jiro smirked at him, Tsuyu shrugged, she knew that Izuku would be their first.. Shinso looked at Mei who was.. Confused?
"Hey, Ochako-chan! You're cute, you know? But.. Well, better luck next time. See, Izuku-kun is amazing to say the least. So, yeah." Himiko grinned at her, and Ochako looked depressed only for Tsuyu to pull her into a hug.
"Where are the others?" Thor asked curiously.
"Well, they kinda got busy, and some.. Well, they felt like they couldn't bare saying a proper goodbye." Tsuyu said only for Iida to arrive, shake Izuku's hand and gave him a sad look.. Surprisingly.
"Midoriya-kun, I.. I hate goodbyes but, can we still be friends?" He asked as Izuku smiled.
"This is my, no, our goodbye as classmates, not as friends. If you get in any trouble, I will be there, consequences be damned!" Izuku replied seriously, "You're a fine bunch of future heroes.. But, why did you decide to walk this path? Some of you... Excuse me about Katsuki, but he's more villainous than some hardcore thugs!"
"No offense taken. He's NOT our friend!" Mineta said as Kaminari sighed.
"Yeah, what he did to you is.. Unforgiveable!" He added.
"Midoriya, thank you!" Shoto said earnestly, "Be careful not to break your bones!" He said as Izuku laughed.
"Well, Endeavor was lucky Ryu was in a good mood." He joked as Shoto laughed hysterically.
"Yeah.. He deserved it!" He laughed as everyone jumped away. How come the stoic had laughed?
"For all it's worth it? Thank you. I never felt this good." He replied as Izuku ruffled his hair.
"Don't be. I told him to give him that humiliation... And he deserved much more. Oh, and I have something to ask you. Is it true that you have a brother that... Died?" Izuku asked as the mood fell.
"Yeah, Touya, Fuyumi, Natsuo and then me." He replied after a sigh. "He always protected me and fought against our.. Sperm donor for my sake."
"I... If he's alive, I will make him talk to you. I swear it!" Izuku said as he remembered about a scarred man called Dabi by Giran, when they talked about their potential recruits. If his hypothesis is true, the only person he can think of, with the horrific scars, and the strong flames, would be none other than Todoroki Touya... Who didn't die for some mysterious reason.
A few hours later
Izuku sighed in frustration. After tonight, he realized that things would never ever go the same. After all, he can't be called a hero anymore. Fine by him. If this society ignored people like Tenko, Himiko, himself, and who knows how many others? People like Gentle, Lady Nagant, Shinso, Mei, Touya.. Shoto, Tokoyami.. Ochako and her parents... Some people like Bubaigawara Jin... He didn't see much hope for this society which ignore those in desperate need of help. Now however, he have a chance to save them. Yes, he WILL save them, consequences be damned!
"Izuku-kun, you've been awfully quiet." Himiko said as Izuku sighed.
"You're Tenko's first, right?" He asked and she nodded before she blinked.
"Not like that! I was his first person on his team, you know? But you were my first... Everything, Izuku-kun. I.. You're my first true crush, first man to rush to my aid, first good human to me.. First boyfriend, and... Well, first hero." She replied bashfully as he now almost shut down. But he shook his head at her confession.
"Well, Tenko have Kurogiri for years now. That, and Thor wouldn't quit on me." He replied as Mei and Shinso smiled at him. "Now, next step would be to recruit some really strong yet decent people."
"For Tomura-kun's team you meant?" She asked and he nodded.
"One of the people on my mind for my team is not free, and I.." He begun only for Thor to snort.
"I can break That place into rubble if I wanted to!" The giant replied, "Oh, and it's Thor, Shinso, Mei!"
"Well, let's not do it yet. It is MY job, not yours, Thor-sensei." Izuku replied seriously, when they were alone, just the waitress, who was napping and the cashier who was counting the money. "Let's get out of here."
And so they walked into the park he cleaned. He chuckled as Himiko was wondering about something.
"Himiko-chan?" He asked and she blinked.
"Oh.. Er, it's about this scrapyard." She replied as Mei almost wailed.
"We'll get you a boat filled of scraps, don't you worry!" Shinso said to defuse the situation.
"Thanks guys!" She replied, "But whoever cleaned this, he should have delivered it to me!" She said as Izuku blinked but sighed.
"It took me ten months to clean it up... But.. You can always find it on the Scrapyard. However, we need a decommissioned Tanker or something.." Izuku begun only for Thor to rush, and a few minutes later, a HUGE decomissioned ship set for scrap was pushed towards them.
"Move it around! We're..." Thor begun only for Izuku to put a hand on it and a swirling Vortex swallowed the tanker via a distortion in the time space fabric. "Or you can do that!"
"You're serious about filling this with scrap?" Mei asked hopefully. Himiko giggled at her excitement.
"That's the spirit, Mei-chan. Just.. Please be very careful? You are our precious friend." She replied as Izuku smirked.
"Don't let Tomura.. Tenko's words get to your heads. None of us is better than the other." He replied with a warm smile, "Now, let's get starting, Team Vengeance and Himiko-chan!" Izuku replied as the blonde puffed her cheeks in irritation.
"Why I am not one of your team?" She mumbled as he scratched his neck.
"Well, you know about.. being co-workers and lovers at the same time.." Izuku replied bashfully as she giggled at him.
"But you'll be there, always, just for me, riiiiiight?" She asked as she battered her eyelashes and Izuku nodded furiously. Shinso smirked and imitated a whip crack.
Midoriya household...
"Hey, Okaa-san!" Izuku said as he warped inside.. Or rather, phased through the door, only to see his mother talking on the phone.
"Izuku, perfect timing! Your father wants to talk to you." She said as Izuku immediately kicked his shoes off and jumped at the opportunity.
"Otou-san?" He asked as he then stiffened when he heard the caller's voice. It was...
"The cat out of the bag.. Huh? It's been a little while. Don't do anything to make your mother worry." The caller said as Izuku's life almost shattered, but he took deep breath after deep breath. His mother didn't know who her husband was..
"Okay, are you alright now?" Izuku asked him curiously. The man sighed dejectedly.
"Yeah.. Apart that she can't know nor see me in my current state. It's my greatest shame. I'm sorry for everything I put you two through." He said as Izuku sighed. This again?
"I told you, if your son is anything like me, he would forgive you. And I do. But you gotta stop, let it go." Izuku replied as tears started to stream from his eyes.
"Well, she said that she approves that you work with the Doctor. But the issue is, do you really agre to work with me, my son?" He asked as Izuku gritted his teeth.
"You owe her a great debt.. No, you will make it up to her one day!" Izuku replied seriously, "But I can't say I am not grateful for that job offering. After all.. What do I have to do, or go?" Izuku sighed dejectedly as he looked tired.
"Excelent. I never lied to you if that's what's worrying you. And congratulations on your engagement to Himiko. Also, treat that brown haired girl nicely. Who knows? But let me warn you, my son : Women are scary. I still feel like a coward, all because of one moment of weakness, and a fight, not realizing she was pregnant..." The old man sighed tiredly. It was his biggest regret and shame. "So, are you in, my son?"
"After I lost any hope? After I've seen everything you said, and it was true by the way? How can I say no? Better walk with the Devil himself, if he's honest and truthful at least, than walk with nothing but fake, lying Judas!" Izuku replied as smoke was getting out of his mouth. "See the Doctor tomorrow after I wake up. Okaa-san, here. Tell him anything you want.."
"Is Izuku's new job risky?" She asked as Hisashi sighed.
"No. I'm sorry, Inko... But I.. I am not the same man I used to be..." He replied seriously, and if he had eyes, tears would have streamed down his cheeks.
Izuku then got into his room, his mind was now totally set! However, his heart wasnt!
How can he accepted that his true last name wasn't Midoriya, but Shigaraki?
How can he accept that his father was none other than All For One himself?
How can he accept that All Might and his Father intended to give him a broken Quirk?
How can he accept that he have either to be a villain, or kill...?
How can he accept that now he's the captain of his own team?
How can he accept that his mother dated a monster, and he's loyal to her?
How can he accept that he have two girls, one his girlfriend, that loves him equally?
How can he accept how out of control his life will be?
How can he accept that he was a Primordial Quirked human?
He couldn't... But he had to, lest he lost himself...
'A good sleep would be the best!' He thought as he closed his eyes after removing everything, and slept almost naked... With only a pair of boxers for good measure.
