Chapter 12 – Recognizement
Izuku was sleeping, tomorrow is going to be his long-awaited date with Uraraka, his former crush, and now girlfriend.
While he was sleeping, inside his conscience were arguing 8 people: The seven holders – Excluding All Might, that is. – of One for All and Hisashi Midoriya. They were discussing Izuku's date.
"So, everyone here ships Ochaco Uraraka and Izuku Midoiya?" – Said Hisashi, Izuku's dad.
"""""""Yes.""""""" – Said the seven holders in unison.
"Okay. I will call this meeting the IzuOcha Battleship Conference." – Suggested Midoriya's dad.
"IOBC? Seems good enough." – Said the 3rd holder.
"Agreed." – Said the 5th holder.
They all agreed on this name and decided to use it from now on.
"So, I have a plan." – Hisashi stated, getting curious glares from everyone.
"What is it, Hisashi?" – Said the 7th holder.
"We may choose one person from here to give Izuku some advice, regarding the date. Is this good enough?"
"Indeed... If we're going to vote, I indicate the 4th. When it comes to dates in general, he is smooth." – Said the 6th
"Me? Well, I won't deny that... If everyone is okay with it, I will help the little brat. He needs some tips and tricks on this matter." – Said 4th himself.
"Does everyone concur?" – Asked Hisashi, looking into everyone's eyes, one at the time. He started to snap his fingers.
Every holder, except the 4th, accepted.
The 4th holder nodded, and Hisashi dismissed everyone. Somehow he was the 'leader' of this group, scary.
They live inside Izuku's head, but they don't see everything necessarily. Conveniently during the private times, such as going to the restroom, changing clothes and stuff like that are blocked. Maybe it was Izuku's sub conscience who did it.
All of the holders left when Izuku was here, talking to his dad. They wanted to give them space for father-son bonding. It was Worth it, even the 7th holder cried when it was happening.
All of them actually ships Izuku and Ochaco. They really want to make that ship reality.
Oh, Izuku... We are all sorry for you...
The hard times you will fight now...
Shippers are scary...
Morning, Friday.
" *Yawn*... "
Izuku was yawning. He was still sleepy, as he just woke up.
He was laying on the hospital bed and was about to leave when suddenly a silhouette appeared in front of him.
"Yo, Izuku." – Said the silhouette
"Uwa! ... Who are you?" – Izuku said, right after his low volume scream. He was startled.
"I am the 4th holder of One for All. I have checked the area near here, don't worry. Nobody knows that I'm here... They can't even see me..." – Said the 4th, staring blankly at that last statement. He was lonely, Izuku could see that, but he couldn't do anything about it.
"Ok... But why are you here?" – Izuku asked, puzzled.
"I'm here, well... To give you some advice about your date. I was a smooth talker when I had a body." – The man said. He really looked like the type to do that. He had blonde hair pulled back and blue eyes. Truly, a ladies-man.
"..."
"Don't worry! I won't interfere too much. I will just point out the things you can do. Just be yourself at that date." – Said the 4th, smiling.
Izuku pondered for a moment.
"... Sure..." – Izuku figured that this would be the best thing he could do.
"Ok! I will go now, but I will talk to you when the date is happening. Don't worry, I'm not some cliché friend that will tell you to change your personality just to impress somebody or that guy who interrupts a date." – Stated the 4th, just to clarify that. He didn't want Izuku to see him as a jerk. He is his successor after all.
"Ok. Thanks... I don't have any experience in this area, at all." – Said Izuku, a little upset. But soon he recovered, as he thought about the girl he was having the date with, his former crush. His girlfriend.
After that short talk, 4th parted his ways with Izuku and faded away.
Izuku was discharged from the hospital and left his room after talking to a nurse.
He was at his door and suddenly heard noises coming from all around him.
It was clapping. People had entered the hospital when they heard about the day their hero, Deku, would be discharged.
Izuku was dumbfounded, speechless. But above that, he was happy. He got Recognizement from everybody. He was no longer the quirkless boy that everyone bullied. No.
He was now a hero, recognized by the whole city.
He started to tear up. He got to his knees and hid his face with both of his hands. He was crying.
He remembered every bully act he received, every bruise, every punch, every explosion... They were now meaningless. They now meant nothing to that boy. He moved on. He fulfilled his dream.
Everyone saw him crying, and they started to smile. They knew: He was a good boy, a true hero.
They got close to him, surrounding him. Nothing was planned.
Everyone started to thank him.
"Thank you, Deku. Because of you, I can hug my Family again..." – Said a middle-aged man, smiling.
"Thank you very much! I can now marry without fear!" – Said a young woman. She was a fianceé.
"Because of you, Young man, I can live a couple of years more." – Said an old man. He looked to be in his early 80s.
And so on. Every kind of 'Thank You' He could receive, he received.
He wiped his tears and stood up.
"I-It w-was m-my d-duty, a-as a h-h-hero..." – Izuku was stuttering, still trying to find words to say.
"You are our hero!" – The crowd said. Not in unison, but almost.
He was receiving the praising he longed for, he was feeling fulfilled.
He then walked, smiling and was almost at the base-floor, where the exit was.
He found his classmates there, they were actually going to visit him. Coincidence, huh?
They looked at him and smiled.
"Deku! / Midoriya!" – Said his classmates. Izuku's mother and All Might were there, with his classmates.
They got close to Midoriya, some hugged, some patted and some spoke.
"You were so BADASS!" – Kaminari said.
"You are a man, Midoriya." – Kirishima said, praising Deku. – "You stood strong against those villains. You saved us."
Each one gave their small speech, they all admired Izuku's acts, and some, Izuku as a person.
All Might approached Izuku.
"Young Midoriya. I tell you this: You are a true hero. I am glad I chose you as my successor, as I feel that the future is safe in your hands." – Whispered All Might, making Izuku tear up again.
"T-T-Thank Y-You, A-All M-Might..." – Izuku thanked All Might from all of his heart. He was feeling extra-happy hearing this from his long-time idol, and master. His inspiration.
"Hey, Young Midoriya?" – Whispered All Might, after Izuku calmed down.
"Yes?" – He whispered back.
"I will do something for you, that I think will help you. I think it is the perfect time for that now." – All Might completed, leaving Izuku confused.
All Might signaled Izuku to follow him. His classmates noticed this a little late, and when they did, All Might and Izuku were outside of the building. Cameras, reporters, a crowd. They all were there to see him. The majority of the crowd wasn't accepted inside because of the amount. It was a crap-ton of people.
All Might then called the reporters and said:
"Hello! I am here, All Might!" – He said, trying to do his mighty voice.
The crowd made a huge uproar, and All Might raised his hand, signaling for them to stop.
"I am here to say something. As you all know, the boy beside me is the hero that saved Japan- No, the world!" – All Might said, emphasizing the last part – "He is a true hero, and a person I respect from the bottom of my heart." – He paused – "He is the greatest hero I've ever met, and he can achieve even greater things. I couldn't just stay quiet after this. Have Faith in him, you will not be disappointed!"
The entire place was cheering. All Might, former number one, had set high hopes for Deku, a new hero.
All Might raised Deku's popularity, and so the hero Deku, which the population loved, was born, even though he wasn't pro yet.
What will happen at the Date? How Izuku's relationship with Ochaco will develop? How popular is Izuku?
