You see the sun rise
With a shiny gold background, Izuku's curly green hair is shown as he lifts up his face, and his Emerald eyes seem to shine as he stares at the back of All Might
A new days upon you
You bite your nails and
All Might slowly turns his head to the side. The screen switches to Izuku's back as a rosette walks up to him and puts a hand on his shoulder.
Your kness start to tremble
The time is upon you
Izuku turns to look at the grinning face of Natsu. Natsu gives him a thumbs up to which he smiles at.
To show them what you can do
And soon they will know that
Both boys turn to look at All Might as his permanently, smiling face looks at them with one eye. Izuku's smiles with more confidence while Natsu's is more challenging. They both start to dash at All Might with their hands stretched towards him.
The day has come!
The screen flips between the U.A.students unil the title screen My Hero Academia is shown.
Late into the night
I hear it storming
The city is shown at night with rainfall. Izuku can be seen on a bridge, looking at the sky
An end to the rain
Is what I pray
And i'm hoping
He lowers his rain soaked head to the ground with a downcast expression as he slowly starts walking.
Now I feel the preasure of the city
Oh, how it eats me whole!
As he walks, the screen shows the many notebooks he has from 01-13.
So many names and faces
Sleepless nights
Spent in unknown places
A hand finds it's way on his hair causing Izuku to lower his head even further as it ruffles his hair. A flash of pink runs ahead of him as Izuku lifts his head to see Natsu running ahead, grinning at him. Izuku smiles back and runs after him.
And everyday
I walk straight into the great unknown
The background changes to white and Izuku's feet is shown slowly coming to a stop.
I'm not to blame
Izuku is shown as a child staring at Katsuki who stares right back. With a black lightning like line seperating them down the middle of the screen
I'm gonna take a stand
Izuku and Katsuki switch places and change into teens, back to back. Both boys wear the same black uniform and are looking down, wearing a frown. Where Katsuki's is an uninterested one, while Izuku's is more uncertain.
You say my name
The screen zooms in on their faces a bit. Both boys are in different clothes and are wearing the same gray uniform. Izuku's face takes on a more resolute look, while Katsuki's shows a little annoyance.
I'm telling you to reach out and
Katsuki grits his teeth while Izuku's narrows his eyes in determination.
Finally take my hand!
Both boys turn around but this time in their hero costumes. Their fists collide and the screen explodes and changes to a mysterious man with a hand on his face, head and shoulders, reaching his actual hand up to the sky. The background changes to a hand curling into a fist, leading to All Might as he pulls back and punches and blows away multiple villains.
Colliding fists
They're what's gonna make you
A bulky dark creature, with its brain shown on its head and eyes in its brain. It has a beak with teeth showing as the creature charges at All Might and engages him in a brawl.
You grit your teeth or
They're gonna break you
The scene changes to a bar and a humanoid purple gas creature is shown in a bartenders outfit before the gas on his head levitates up and glowing yellow eyes appear and narrow.
The time is upon you
A man with red eyes and wavy hair shooting up9 appears and fights off villains using the bandages wrapped around him and combat techniques.
To show them what you can do
You're breaking the mold
To show you're not them
Izuku's back is shown as he runs towards the blue sky with Natsu not too far behind.
Will we break through?
I don't know don't know
The screen shows the different U.A. students showing off their abilities on by one as they make their way towards the sky
The bells are ringing
Come out and play now
The time is upon you
Izuku and Natsu is shown running, as their U.A. uniform change into their hero costumes.
To show them what you can do
And soon they will know that
Izuku reels his fist back and Natsu doing he same wih his head.
The day has come!
"I have these sheets to help you plan for your future but..."
Whatever time and work the teacher put onto these sheets was soon a waste as he just threw them up with a smile.
"Your all pretty much aiming to be heroes right?"
The class erupted in cheers and could be seen showing some... unique quirks. All except 3 students. Can you guess who?
"Yes yes, you all have amazing quirks! No using them in class though."
Through the cheers, an arrogant voice spoke out. "Sensei, please dom't lump me in with these extras." The class turned to Katsuki, shouting denials while Katsuki just looked like he was really enjoying it.
"All you extras can just shut your mouth!" He yelled back at them. The teacher inspected a certain piece of paper. "Bakugo's going to U.A. high huh." At that, the class changed their angry looks to looks of shock. A certain rosette was fast asleep showing how little he cared. Izuku though was far more nervous now that he knew Katsuki was going to U.A. high for some reason.
"U.A. high? isn't there only a 0.02% chance of getting in?" Some random classmate wondered aloud. "And this is exactly way you guys are only extras." He jumped from his seat to the desk and posed. "I aced the mock test for U.A. high. I'll be the only person who got into U.A. from this school. My name will be inscribed in the history books AND I WILL SURPASS ALL MIGHT!!"
At the words 'surpass' and 'All Might' the bubble coming from Natsu's nose popped, causing him to wake up. The class could only stare oddly at the only boy who could sleep through Katsuki's rant and their cheers.
He looked around groggily, before setting his eyes on Katsuki, who glared right back at his half awoken look. The rosette blinked. He rubbed his eyes before just staring at Katsuki. He looked to the teacher in confusion. "Oi teach, is the walking firework in his right mind? Why's he standing on his desk and actually look like he's ready to play the part of his nickname? The hell happened while I was asleep?" He asked dumbly.
The class just laughed their asses off at Natsu's remark about 'the walking firework.' Even Izuku couldn't help but crack a smile, while Katsuki was just seething in anger. The teacher looked curiously at another piece of paper in his hand. He was about to speak but got interupted by the explosive teen.
"Like it matters now extra. Your probably going to some stupid school for nobody's like the nobody you are!" Natsu tilted his head. "But I thought you were planning on going to U.A. like me and Izuku." The green haired boy twitched in his seat while the whole class froze and turned to the boy.
They laughed harder than Natsu's insult to Katsuki. Natsu narrowed his eyes on the class. Just when he was going to step in, Katsuki slammed his hand on Izuku's desk with an enraged look on his face and blew it up, causing Izuku to fall on his butt.
"Don't joke around with me Deku! Your a quirkless nobody so how can you stand in the same ring as me? HUH!?" Smoke was coming out of Katsuki's hand and if looks could kill, Izuku would've died ten times already.
Izuku started backing up against the wall while waving his hand. "N-no, your w-wrong Kacchan. It's not like i'm trying to compete with you and besides..." he trailed off and looked to the ground. "It's been a dream of mine since i was a kid a-and you never now unless you try." The class could be seen behind Katsuki glaring at Izuku along with the explosive teen.
"Don't know until you try? Are you here to take the test for fu-" "Oi." One simple word, just barely above a whisper, and yet the whole class, sans Katsuki, froze at the voice. They slowly turned to the source of the voice hoping it wasn't who they think it was.
Everyone, friend or not, knew Natsu was either just below loud, loud, or really loud when he talked but never quiet. In all their years knowing the boy, the class has never heard Natsu speak quietly unless it was in his sleep. Hearing a deathly calm and quiet voice come out of him scared them, especially when they knew how protective Natsu was of Izuku.
Natsu's hair was shadowing his eyes as he stood up and slowly walked towards Katsuki. Said boy merely turned around to glare at Natsu. "What do you want fire breath? Your in the same boat as the damn nerd. Eating fire? What kind of a joke is that!"
Natsu clenched his fist. Since he first came here as a child, his magic stopped working. The time when he first met Izuku and Katsuki was the only exception for some reason. He was resistant to fire and could eat it, but that was about it. He was seriously nerfed since coming here. Not that he regrets coming to japan. He's been trying to get his powers back to no avail. He still has yet to give up. How could he? His magic was the only memento he had of his father apart from his scarf.
He punched his fist into his palm and glared back at Katsuki. "It's enough to take care of a walking landmine that's for sure." That grated on Katsuki's nerves. It was a reminder that his quirk had no effect on the rosette.
Before it could escalate any further, the teacher finally stepped in. "Dragneel, Bakugo, get to your seats now!"
After glaring at each other for a full minute, both boys finally relented, grumbling.
(End Of Classes)
Natsu, much to Izuku's dissapointment, ended up falling asleep again. Not even the school bell woke him up. Izuku was packing up, more then ready to pack up and get as far away from his childhood friend and back home. Before he could put one of his notebooks into his bag, a hand snatches it away from him. Izuku looks up to see Katsuki's currently neutral face looking down on him, both metaphorically, and literally.
"Wait a minute Deku. We haven't finished talking yet." Two boys (A.N. side characters i'm too lazy to describe) walked up to Katsuki.
"Huh? What's this Katsuki?" His response was Katsuki putting the book in front of his face without looking away from Izuku.
"'Hero Analysis For The Future'? What kind of crap is this?" The two laughed at Izuku's expense. Izuku reached out in an attempt to get his book back. "Give it back! It doesn't matter right?!"
Katsuki in response blew the book up. "So Mean!" He then threw it out the window. "Listen Deku. Did you know pro heroes have their life from when they were in junior high written and published? Well I wanna be known as the only student who graduated from this mediocore school. I'm a perfectionist."
One of the boys turned back with a deadpanned face. 'So Petty' he thought.
"That's why..." Katsuki puts his hand on Izuku shoulder, causing smoke to rise. He puts on a sickly sweet smile and gets in Izuku's face. The poor boy could only turn his head slowly to look at his apparent 'childhood friend' with a terrified expression "Don't go to U.A. damn nerd."
The three start to walk away from Izuku "Man you could have at least said something back." The other boy looked at him. "It's no use. He is still someone who can't see reality."
Katsuki pauses in his trek and hums in thought. "Actually there is a quick way to be a hero. Hope that in the next life you'll have a quirk and jump out of the window!"
Izuku turned his head sharply towards Katsuki looking like he was ready to attack.
Katsuki raised his hand and mini explosions formed on his hand and smirked. "What?"
Suddenly feeling small, poor Izuku could only tremble as Katsuki and his group finally left. He sighed, before going to wake up Natsu only to be surprised to find him awake the whole time.
Looking serious for once, Natsu spoke. "Izu. I know you want to deal with Katsuki in your own way. But I'm telling you right here, right now. If that asshole goes too far, i'm stepping in, ya hear me?"
He would put Katsuki in his place if he had to. Izuku knew this. Sighing, he nodded although reluctant, he was grateful at the same time.
(On The Way Home)
The brothers in all but blood were walking in comfortable silence, both thinking about what happend today, and the future. Well, less on the future on Natsu's part.
Izuku seemed to be deep in thought. He stumbled a bit when he felt a hand slap his back. Turning back, he saw that goofy grin on Natsu's face "Don't let what the landmine said get to ya Izu. I can't say for sure you can become a hero but giving up now makes it impossible." Izuku looked surprise, but gained a detemined gleam in his eye which Natsu saw as they neared the tunnel.
He put his arm around his brother while looking straight ahead. Izuku turned his head up to look at Natsu "Listen Izu. Like I said before, I can't say for certain you'll become a hero. But I also can't say for sure you won't become a hero. Nobody knows what tommorow holds. That's why we can live for all that we're worth today. So don't give up yet Izuku."
Izuku looks up, with a teary eyed smile, causing Natsu to panic on the inside. His brother, seeing this laughed. "T-thanks Natsu. You always know what to say to make me look at the positive side to my dreams and reality."
He got a grin aimed towards him and a hand ruffling his hair. "No prob little bro."
With newfound confidence, Izuku walks through the tunnel, laughing in a similar way to All Might. Deciding to join in, Natsu walks and laughs in a similar fashion right by Izuku.
Unknown to the two, a green slime like substance, slowly came out of the sewer formed into a slimy looking creature with teeth and eyes. Natsu however was able to pick up a scent when the slime came out and looked back. Only to see something that made him wanna puke.
"DUDE WHAT THE HELL KIND OF A SNOTTY JOKE OF A QUIRK DO YOU HAVE?!" He yelled. Izuku tilted his head, confused before following Natsu's gaze and gaining a look of horror, while silently agreeing with Natsu. "It's a villain!"
Natsu deadpanned. "I kinda figured that out when he came out of the sewer looking at us like a pedo." Izuku blushed in embarrasment at that remark.
Said villain had a tick mark on his forehead for being ignored. He lunged at Izuku with a battle cry of "DON'T IGNORE ME!" The target of the villain was frozen in place in fear, while Natsu, finally taking notice to the bad situation they were in, reacted quickly and shoved Izuku out of harms way.
As the slime over took Natsu and started taking over his body by entering his mouth. Izuku had wide eyes in shock. Horrified he called out "NATSU!" The villain ignored him. "Hmmmm. No quirk, but a medium sized cloak. Don't worry, it'll be over in about 45 seconds." He ignored Natsu's attempt at grabbing him "You can't grab me. I'm fluid. I didn't think He had came here. Thanks. You're my hero." Not knowing what to do, Izuku got up and was about to charge the villain, when all of a sudden, the sewer entrance was knocked off and out came a bulky man in a simple white T-shirt and military pants.
His eyes were shadowed by nothing, making it look like he bears none. His blonde hair reached down to his neck and the hair at the front was formed in a 'V' shape. He was smiling as he carried his grocerry bags.
"It's all right now young boys. Why?"
He looked up, smile never faltering, while Izuku could only look at him in shock and admiration. The villain however was annoyed. "YOU!"
"Because I am here."
The villain swiped at the man with a tentacle to which the man ducked under. He charged right for the villain, while the slimy villain swiped again with another tentacle. This time, the man halted his charge, and pulled his fist back.
"Texas..."
He punched forward leaving the villain to deal with the wind. "Wind preasure!?"
"...SMASH!"
The villain exploded in to tiny, gooey pieces, onto the ground, leaving a panting Natsu on the ground, swiping at his tounge with his sleeve as much as he could due to realizing that what he called 'A snotty joke of a quirk' got in his mouth. 'Ewwww gross. Karma you are a sick, sick, little bitch.' He would have continued his mental grumbling until Izuku came up to him and hugged him. Though surprised, he returned the hug while patting his brother's back.
"Geez Izuku, next time make sure you get outta there in time." Izuku pulled back to look at his brother in disbelief but sighed. 'Of course he thinks of me before himself. He wouldn't be Natsu if he didn't I guess. I need to get stronger and become a good hero so that he can spend more time thinking about his own life instead of mine.' He thought.
They heard a cough, getting their attention. As soon as they turned, Izuku remembered who their saviour was and started stuttering "A-A-ALL M-M-MIGHT! IT'S YOU!" Natsu grinned, excited. All Might noticed, but dismissed it as an over the top fan. Oh how wrong he was.
Before Izuku could say anything else he remembered something. It took one second to realize there, in front of them was All Might, three seconds to realize the proper pronoun for this situation was Them, and not Him, and a second too late to realize Natsu was already charging at the symbol of peace.
"I CHALLENGE YOU TO A FIGHT ALL MIGHT!! I'M ALL FIRED UP!!" looking at his strange 'fan' in disbelief, All Might backed away and raised his hands in an attempt to talk to the rosette. Until a fist came down onto the rosette's head and before the boy knew it, he was on the ground with a lump on his head.
"REALLY?! THE FIRST THING YOU DO WHEN YOU SEE ALL MIGHT AND YOUR SAVIOUR IS ATTACK HIM?!" uncharacteristically yelled the boy in green with a scary look of rage directed towards Natsu. Now, normally Izuku would never act like this towards anyone. But when you have Natsu for a brother, even someone like Izuku needs to learn to keep him in line to stop some of his idiotic acts.
Unfortunatly, this is the only language that you can get Natsu to understand when he acts like this. Izuku bowed repeatedly to his idol. "I-I'm sorry for my brother's disrespect A-All Might. He really didn't mean it, he just really respects your strength." He frantically tried to explain his brother's actions.
Just as Natsu was about to protest, a heated glare from his brother caused him to shy away in fear, and act more like his brother for a change.
Sweatdropping, All Might thanked them. "Sorry for getting you involved. Usually I don't make mistakes like that but I was in high spirits on my day off in a new place. AHHAHAHAHAHA!" he laughed his signature laugh.
"But You were a big help! Thanks! I successfully captured him!" He said while presenting them the villain in bottle. Both his pupils were crossed out.
Remembering who was in front of him, Izuku frantically looks for something for All Might to sign "A-Ah, Autograph, Autograph. Where should I- Ah! My notebook!" When he got to his notebook, he opened it to a random page and magically found it signed 'All Might' making his eyes bug out of their sockets. "HE ALREADY SIGNED IT!!!"
The All Might fanatic bowed repeatedly "Th-thank you so much! This will be a heirloom, a family treasure!"
All Might gave him a thumbs up and his usual smile, though mentally, he was still stunned by Natsu's sudden challenge. "Okay!" He tapped the bottle he stuffed the villain in while telling them he was going to take him to the police. Izuku looked up dissapointed while Natsu stared at Izuku. "What, already?" Izuku questioned. All Might started stretching 'What are you gonna do about it Izu?' Natsu wondered while Izuku had his own thoughts .
'Wait, there are still so many things I wanna ask you.'
"Pro heroes are constantly fighting enemies and time. Well! I'll see you on the other side of the screen." He leaped high into the air not noticing Natsu's grin or that one boy wasn't where he should be.
"Thank you for your support!" His voice echoed as he traveled farther through the air. Natsu started walking slowly in All Might's general direction. 'Better give little bro and All Might some time alone for Izu's questions.' He thought. He never noticed the bottle that had fallen in a nearby alleyway.
With All Might and Izuku
"Wait." The symbol of peace turned his head to the boy who somehow latched himself onto his leg, while said boy had his mouth and eye sockets being blown by the strong wind as All Might tried to shove him off. "Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!" He spoke rapidly. "Let go of my leg! Your fanaticism is too much!" "If I let go, I-I'll die!" At that, All Might stopped in realization.
"I-I have a-lot o-of questions i wa-want to ask you d-directly" Izuku said while the wind was pushing on his eye sockets and mouth. "Ok ok, i get it, so close your eyes and mouth and hold on tightly."
Izuku buried his leg into All Might as the hero turned his head from side to side, looking for a building to land safely on. His mouth bled a bit so he wiped the blood off. "Shit" he muttered in a voice, barely above a whisper.
Timeskip
After dropping off Izuku on a nearby building, All Might turned his back on the boy, who's face looked pretty aged. His lips were extremly dry, and his hair spiked up.
"Good grief. If you talk to the people downstairs i'm sure let you down. I seriously am out of time, so i really need to go." He waved to Izuku without turning and walked away.
Seemingly realizing now was not the time to take a rest, his hair magically went back to normal as did the rest of his face, panicking, he turned towards the hero. "Wait! Um..." interuppting him, All Might impatiently spoke in a firm voice "No! I won't wait." Izuku reached his hand out to try and stop the hero. "But-" and then he memories of when he was told to give up by the doctor, the apology from his mother back when she gave up, and the harsh words telling him he was quirkless from Katsuki came rushing back, causing him to slowly retract his arm to his side, and gaining a downcast expression. 'What CAN i do. I don't even have a quirk. I know i should give up. I already know all this. But-'
He remembered. He remembered the time back when Natsu came barging into his life. He remembered how thankful he was for his brothers words. Words he always wanted to hear. 'But he's like a hero.' He remebered the words that strengthened the flame he called his dream. 'Nobody knows what tommorow holds. That's why we can live for all that we're worth today.' Raising his head to look at All Might, if the hero would have turned around, he would have seen a fire in the young boys eyes.
Although he couldn't see it, All Might could feel the determination residing in the boy 'Wha-' his thoughts were interuppted by Izuku. "Even if i don't have a quirk, can i become hero!?" He blurted out. "Can even someone without a quirk be like you?" He asked in a much more hushed voice while closing his eyes. That finally stopped All Might dead in his tracks. He slowly turned his head towards the boy
"My meeting with All Might... this miracle... at the time, i couldn't even imagine how much it would change my fate."
In a Nearby Alleyway
"You were a little harsh back there. Weren't you and midoriya childhood friends.?" Katsuki lackey #1 asked, as him and lackey #2 followed Katsuki through an alleyway. "Yeah, that was harsh, even for you." Said lackey #2. Katsuki had a blank look on his face, sans the narrowed eyes.
"It's what he gets for getting in my way." He said as he kicked a bottle of slime out of said way, unintentionally opening the cap on the bottle as it hit a pole.
"You shouldn't bother with him." #2 said as they came to a stop. Katsuki recalled Izuku's words back at the school. 'It's just that... it's been a dream of mine since i was little. I know i'm quirkless, but you don't know until you try right?' Irritated, Katsuki tightened his hold on his soda can. "He needs to take a look at reality." He blew up his can and threw it away.
"It pisses me off how he talks about being a hero." His two lackeys shared a look and chuckled to each other. "Hey, why don't we go to the arcade. You'll come to right Katsuki." #1 suggested. Katsuki turned to look at him. "Yeah." #2 had his own ideas. "Then why don't we go to the one in front of the station. There's alot of prey there." He said as he extended his index and thumb and made the ok sign.
"Your terrible." Although having said this, #1 looked amused. Not wanting to listen to their stupid ideas, Katsuki snapped. "Idiots! If we get caught it will go on my record!" they reeled back in fear, but not because of Katsuki. They raised their fingers to point behind him "Hey, look!" #2 said fearfully. Katsuki looked back and saw green slimy goo rising from the ground. 'The hell kinda snotty quirk is this!?' He wondered alarm, and unknown to him, sharing his thoughts on the villain with Natsu.
The slime started to rise higher than Katsuki's height and revealed it's teeth as he spoke. "An invisible cloak with a great quirk!" He cried out. Katsuki widened his eyes and before he knew it, the slime launched towards him.
A.N. There it is. Chapter 3. Finally finished. Jeez, i never gave enough credit to the authors who worte good stories, not trying to say mine is good or anything, but they must have it hard. Or any author for that matter. With a crossover, i have a base to start at, but guys who come up with their own stories are awesome. Enough of my rambling.Should i get some pairings and romance in? Originally, i intended to just put in the action and some family fluff, but i think i should leave the romance up to you guys.Anyways, thats enough for me,see ya guys next chapter.Disclaimer: i do not own Fairy Tail or My Hero Academia
