Chapter 4 - Untouchable

"It works."

Izuku repeated the process a few more times, the pen would always land exactly where he wanted it to, 'If this works with the pen, it probably works with everything else.' He thought about it for a few seconds, it's time to do something he had been wanting to for some time now.

The boy stood up, went towards his backpack, picked up a brand new notebook he had bought earlier, and came back to the desk.

The notebook was on top of the desk, opened in the first page, the pen he was throwing around earlier was now being held by him. "I never thought that one day I would be taking notes about myself." He smiled, then started to write:

-MY HERO NOTES-

NAME: Izuku Midoriya

HERO NAME: Undecided

POSSIBLE HERO NAMES: Mighty Boy, All Might Junior, Captain All Might, Super All Might, etc..

QUIRK: Not Registered

QUIRK DESCRIPTION: The only thing I have figured out about my quirk is that I can make things go up and then fall wherever I want, for some reason it requires a lot of calculations for it to work. I looked through all my annotations about quirks that are similar to mine in any way, including my mother's, but not a single one of them works like mine does, further studying required.

He kept writing for around three hours, everything he knew about his quirk and its uses was now registered in that notebook, once he realized it was getting late he stopped and stored that notebook in his backpack.

'I guess I should go to sleep, tomorrow is friday, next monday my training with Togata starts, I still don't know why he decided to help me, I should probably ask him when we meet.'

NEXT DAY AT SCHOOL

"You're all third years now, it's time to start thinking about your futures, I would hand out these future career forms, but…" The teacher's words sounded serious. "Who am I kidding, all of you want to be heroes right?" But he finished in a jovial tone, a lot of the students bursted with joy activating their quirks. "Yes, all of you have great quirks, but remember, using then in school grounds is forbidden."

"Don't lump me in with all these third strings." Said Bakugo with a cocky grin on his face. "Their quirks could never compare mine."

""""KATSUKI THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR."""" Some of the students were glaring at the blonde.

"Shut up, all of you background characters should keep quiet" He answered in a mocking manner.

"Ah, Bakugo, you're aiming for U.A. right?" Said the teacher, not minding the ruckus his students were causing.

"I aced the mock tests, I'm the only one here who can get into that school, I'll even surpass All Might and become the number one hero." The boy was now standing on top of his desk, self confidence seemed to be oozing out of him.

"Now that I remember, Midoriya applied to U.A. as well." The teacher said carelessly, not realizing the torment those words would bring to the green haired boy.

Everyone was now looking at him, the explosive blonde was seething with rage, Izuku wanted to turn invisible right now, when that thought crossed his mind the calculations went off, could he actually do it? Before he could focus on it he heard his classmates.

"Midoriya? Impossible." "You can't become a hero by simply being smart." "There are no quirkless heroes." Most of his classmates had a comment to add.

"I-I'm not quirkless, my quir-" Before he could finish, explosions went off on top of his desk, he was knocked back, the calculations now stopped.

"DEKU, what do you think you're doing? You're quirkless, you're lower than all of these extras, do you believe that you can stand in the same place as me?" Katsuki was fuming.

"N-No, Kacchan, I'm n-not trying to compete with you." Izuku took a few steps back, putting his hands up. "I truly m-mean it, but I'm not quirkless."

"You're still on about that, there's no such thing as quirks activating late, that is just a lie you keep telling yourself and everyone else." If Katsuki had ever picked up a book on history of quirks, he would know that Izuku is not lying, but he only cared about his own quirk, everyone else's did not matter.

The rest of the school day was uneventful, except when the bell rang and it was time to go home.

"We ain't done Deku." Kacchan stood in front of Izuku, stopping him from walking out of the classroom. "The best heroes out there showed signs of greatness even as students, I'll be the first and only hero from this trash of a school, the first to win the honor of becoming a student at U.A., I guess I'm a perfectionist, so.." Kacchan rested his hand on Izuku's shoulder. "Don't you dare try to get into U.A. you nerd." He used minor explosions with his hand that rested on Izuku's shoulder to get his point across.

The freckled boy was trembling, years of bullying really did a number on him, he knew he could easily use his quirk to get Kacchan off of him, during his tests he realized that to his quirk it did not matter if it is an object or living being, the same rules applied, they could be moved the same way, but he did not do it, a hero must only use their powers to save and protect, not to hurt others out of spite.

Katsuki let go of his grip, he got bored of Deku's usual reaction, "You spineless coward, I hope you understand, don't show yourself at the entrance exams." He finished talking as he walked out of the room.

ON THE WAY HOME

Izuku was a bit upset, Kacchan's words really got to him. 'No, I can't stay like this, I have my own quirk. My parents, Togata and Mr. Yagi believe in me. Just like All Might, I need to keep moving forward with a smile.' His thoughts were stopped abruptly when he was grabbed by what seemed to be a mass of sludge.

"I never thought that HE would show up in this town, sorry kid, but I'm taking your body." The mass of sludge spoke with a hoarse voice.

'A VILLAIN!, w-what do I d-do?' Izuku was panicking, the villain was holding him out of the ground, he could not tap his foot, the calculations were now faster than ever.

"Don't struggle so much kid, this will all be over soon." The villain had a malicious grin in what seemed to be his face.

The villain was holding his mouth and nose, Izuku was starting to suffocate, he wanted to get out of the villain's grasp, his calculations were on overdrive, trying to find a result that could get him out of this situation, during his tests with his quirk he never considered anything like this.

He was almost losing consciousness, the image of his idol flashed on his mind, he remembered that whenever All Might fought villains he always seemed untouchable, no matter what the villains did they could never reach or harm the hero, that's what Izuku wanted right now, to be untouchable, his calculations were now focused on that, it took a few more seconds but he did it, he reached a result, once the numbers stopped the villain had let go of him.

Izuku was panting, trying to catch his breath, the villain was not trying to grab him again for some reason.

"W-What have you done?" The villain sounded desperate.

The boy turned around to see that the villain was in fact still trying to grab him, but for some reason could not, it's almost like there was a invisible field around Izuku that the villain could not pierce through, he instantly understood what was happening, it is his quirk, whenever the villain reached this field, the attack is instantly calculated and stopped.

Before both of them could do anything, a new voice was heard from behind.

"TEXAS SMASH."

A huge shockwave hit the villain, sludge was now splattered everywhere, but none of it reached Izuku, his field stopped all of it. Izuku was almost fainting for different reasons now, his idol had just rescued him, he saw All Might grab what seemed to be the sludge villain and put him inside a plastic bottle, the villain was captured.

"Are you alright young man?" All Might approached with his usual smile on his face. "Sorry that you got caught up in this, this villain evaded me before, because of my mistake you were attacked, I apologize, but thanks to you I succeeded in the villain's apprehension."

'All Might is here, he's really here, I can see him.' Izuku quickly grabbed one of his notebooks from his backpack, and before he could even ask All Might was already signing it.

"T-Thank you so much, this will be my family heirloom." Izuku said while bowing.

All Might gave the boy a thumbs up and started to walk away, "Now I must bring this wrongdoer to the authorities, thanks for your support." All Might finished speaking and jumped away.

Izuku stood there for a few seconds, processing everything that had just happened, first he is attacked, then a new power his quirk have activates, and in the end he is saved by his idol. He picked his belongings from the ground and ran home.

AT HOME

His mom almost flooded the kitchen with her tears when Izuku told her he was attacked, but felt great relief once she heard that All Might saved him, she tried to hug her son but could not, something kept her from doing so, Izuku quickly figured out why, the new power that stopped the villain from grabbing him was still active.

"This could be a problem."

A/N:

Divergence from canon, since Izuku does have a quirk he did not feel the need to question All Might if he could become a hero, he knows he can, and since All Might was not too distracted by Izuku he did not lose the sludge villain, so Kacchan was never attacked.

Also, I know that Accelerator's field can not only stop, but also redirect and most importantly reverse attacks, but for the time being Izuku's can only stop, he will discover how to do the others later.

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