Chapter 2 - Tests

"...My quirk…..my quirk….I have a quirk" Izuku said as his tears fell "...I can do this, i can be a hero." he quickly wiped off his tears, picked up the pen and ran out of his room.

"Mom, I need to show you something!" Izuku said in an almost shouting tone.

"What's wrong? What's gotten into you all of sudden?" Inko was a bit perplexed, the last time she saw her son this excited was when he watched All Might's debut video for the first time.

"Look at this!" Izuku put the pen on top of the table, and repeated the action he did on his desk earlier, the pen went up, hit the ceiling, and fell back down.

"...How did..." she thought for a second and then came to a realization, "IS THIS YOUR QUIRK?"

"YES!" Izuku answered, almost jumping in joy.

"...I'm so happy *sob* your quirk *sob* you can achieve your dream!" she said, barely holding back her tears of happiness while hugging her son, it seems that Izuku's unique quirk of crying easily, came from his mother.

Inko took a minute to gather herself, and to let Izuku go from the bear hug she was holding him in, "How does it work? How did you do this?" she asked.

'How can i explain this without having to go through all the equations necessary?' Izuku quickly gathered his thoughts, then started speaking "The force that my palm sends to the table, and the equal force the table sends back to my palm, I can redirect both to the pen, I changed the direction of the force from my strike from down to up, it's like my palm and the table are sending the pen up, and the reason the pen hits the ceiling is because I increased the magnitude of its movement." Izuku tried his best to explain.

Inko barely understood a word from her son's mumbling, but it did not matter, he had his quirk, she knew he would achieve great things, and she would support him all the way, "That's great, should we go tomorrow after school to have it analyzed and registered?".

Izuku thought about it for a second and then answered "No, not yet, i want to figure it out a bit more before all that." right now all he wanted was to study it and figure out how he can help and save people with it.

"I see, there's no need to rush things, by the way, dinner is ready." Inko, could easily understand her son.

"I'll eat later." Izuku said as he grabbed his pen and ran back to his room.

"...I should call Hisashi, he will definitely be happy about this." it's too bad her husband is working overseas, he will not be able to witness his son's quirk for some time.

BACK INTO IZUKU'S ROOM

He was back into his original position, sitting at his desk, with the pen laying in front of him, he sent it up in the air using his quirk a few more times before going back into thinking mode, it seems like the equations and results he needs to make it go up are now calculated at a level he barely notices, all he needs it's to think how fast and how far he wants the pen to go and tap his hand in the desk, his quirk does the rest.

"Can I do this without tapping my hand in the desk?" Izuku thought, the calculations going off, never getting an answer, "Maybe by using force without touching the desk." he clapped his hands, trying to redirect it towards the pen, his calculations were telling him that it's possible by sending it through the air, but it seems like he doesn't have the right equations for it, "I guess in the future I may be able to do it using the air as a bridge, quirks do develop after all, and mine have just activated, who knows what I will be able to do." Izuku was really happy right now.

Izuku spent most of the night studying his quirk, and trying to figure out what exactly it was, his first thought was that his quirk is some sort of "Tactile Telekinesis", but he quickly dropped it, if it was, he would not need so many calculations nor take notice of so many variables just to move the pen. He spent a few more hours thinking about it and experimenting with it, only stopping when he overdid it, he accelerated the pen too much, it shattered into pieces when it had hit ceiling, his quirk could be dangerous if not properly controlled.

THE NEXT DAY

School was the same as ever, Izuku was working hard, trying to not sleep in class, 'I stayed up too late, come on, I need to focus.' even though he was incredibly good at any subject that is number related, he still need to study the other ones, although due to his brain always working on overdrive on calculations, it seems that it had become a bit easier to learn and retain information, but he still need to learn first, 'I cannot let my grades slip, i want to get into U.A.'s hero course, it's the same school in which All Might graduated, only the best of the best get into it.' he was working his hardest, he had around 10 months until the entrance exams, he needed to figure his quirk out during that time window, it seems like a lot of time, but in comparison to everyone else who had years to train with their quirks, he was in a big disadvantage, but he was happier than ever, all of those years of waiting finally paid off.

The rest of the day went on without any major events, it seems like even Kacchan and his goons stopped picking on him in the last few days, good, he did not need any of that right now. On his way home he passed through a garbage dump, it seemed like a garbage dump but the sign on the side clearly says "Dagobah Municipal Beach Park", 'A beach here? I hear the sea but i do not see any sand.', Izuku started to walk away but stopped, this was the perfect opportunity to test out the things he could not do at home.

Izuku went down the stairs to the middle of a bunch trash, he needed to test if his quirk could move bigger objects, or if it works like his mother's only moving small ones, he found an old and rusty microwave, he put the machine on the ground and stepped away from it, during his tests last night he figured that if an object is in the ground and he taps his foot on the ground, it works the same way as the pen, the desk and his hand.

He wanted to know his limits, starting with a medium object, he made the alterations needed to the equations and reached the result, it would work. He tapped his foot, the microwave went up, it went up 5 meters in the air and then fell down, 'No problems with medium objects, I need something bigger', Izuku looked around and found a fridge without a door, that would work, he repeated the process, same results, 5 meters into the air, and back to the ground, 'It works on big objects just as easy as small ones, does my quirk have a limit?', it's time for the true test, Izuku targeted the first thing he saw when he went downstairs, a safe, a big one, 'Well, let's see how far I can go.'

After being at a secure distance from the safe he did his ritual, the safe went up the same way all the other objects did, and crashed to the ground creating a cloud of dust upon impact. One last test, Izuku wanted to see how far up he could make the safe go, he made the calculations and got the results, it still works, he took a bit more distance for safety, took a deep breath, and tapped his foot, the safe went up fast, it looked almost like a blur, it went up about 25 meters, and fell down like a meteor towards the floor, Izuku felt a small earthquake when it crashed, 'It seems like size and weight does not matter to my quirk, as long as the calculations get a result, it works.'

"Just what do you think you're doing young man?" said a voice coming from up the stairs.

Izuku looked up and saw a really skinny man with blond hair, clothes that seemed too big for him and a disapproving look on his face.

'I truly overdid it.'

A/N:

First things first, thank you all who followed, favorited and reviewed, I really appreciate it, now, to answer some questions.

Izuku will not get One for All, i do not think he will need it, but i'm still not sure of what I'm gonna do about All Might's successor, I'm accepting suggestions.

Izuku will not skip grades, he is almost finished with middle school, then comes, U.A., plus it's not really his goal.

Now, like before, I welcome any review and criticism, see you guys in the next chapter.
