SilverPsychic; Hellooooooo FINALLY I was able to finish this chapter! Via YouTube videos, Memory, and borrowing Manga from my library! I found a workaround!
Silver; That's great! Sorry things are still not quite perfect but you found an answer!
Izuku; Man! Im excited! Come on let's do this!
SilverPsychic; Im sleepy and it's like 2:30 am while Im writing…PEOPLE I DON'T OWN ANYTHING BESIDES THE AU AND CREATIVITY AND WHATNOT! IM TOO SLEEPY-JUST READ IT! T.T
Chapter 18; Bubbles Pop
"So that's where I've seen you from! You got guts!" The kid said and Silver just laughed awkwardly, "Either that or your just stupid…but, welcome to UA, little late but-" He tried to awkwardly bow, "I'm Tetsutestu Testutestu, nice to meet you…?"
Silver bowed respectively, "Im Silver, same to you Tetsutestu. That's a nice name, I like it."
Mirio laughed heartily, "Oh I didn't even realize you were the same kid!" He elbowed Silver, "Your very lucky."
Silver muttered under his breath thankfully, "More than you'd know."
"Oh, that's funny!" Tetsutetsu said and turned solid metal, "My quirk is Steal and your name is Silver." He laughed and turned back into a natural human, "What's your quirk? Some type of animal…? Cat maybe?"
Silver smiled and shook his head, "Nah, I have hedgehog traits but my quirk is Telelkinisis. I can move things with my mind, that kinda thing."
Tetsutetsu gasped and got an excited smile, "You're a Psychic? What's my future?!" Silver choked with laughter and doubled over, laughing while saying he couldn't do that, "Aw…dang." Tetsutetsu pouted a little but Silver got up.
"I mean I can see the future, but it's random and hurts a lot buuuut…" Silver closed his eyes and put his hands on his temples, "I can see…Monoma shutting up!" Tetsutetsu laughed and Monoma froze, his anger being targeted at Silver now.
He got all up in Silver's face, "Who do you think you are? Better than us because your some kid who hit his head too hard and is in class wimpy A!" He pulled back,
"You have no right to tell me to shut up! I'll talk as much as I want! And I will! Because CLASS B IS BETTER!"
"Sheesh, learn to take a joke." Silver said sarcastically, once again referring to Sonic, placing his hand on Monoma's shoulder and looking him dead in the eyes he said, "Also grab a breath mint while you're doing that." Tetsutetsu almost dropped the dragon with laughter and Silver just gently smiled while Monoma started shaking like a haywire robot from HAtsume.
"Oh YEAH?! Well, I heard Class A is putting on a concert or something like that! How cuuuute, but to put it bluntly class B's STELLER performance will blow your little concert out of the water!" Monoma started getting all wrapped up in his rant as Silver backed up, not wanting to be on the other end of a hand being flung all around, "We're doing Romeo and Juliet and the Prisoner of Azkaban and the Return of King! It's a completely original play written by us!" Silver tilted his head, trying to wrap his head around just the title, "And make sure to bring a hanky once you realize HOW SUPOIR WE ARE!"
Monoma pulled back into a fit of evil laughter and Silver looked at the kid worried, "You do know you're in a school of heroes and you laughing like a villain isn't the best idea…right?"
Before Monoma almost killed Silver, another kid came up and knocked out Monoma, "He is even more nasty than usual." Izuku commented and Silver laughed.
"Yeah, that's because Kendo isn't around."
"Huh, that's weird, aren't they always together? Where is she?" Izuku asked confused while looking around for the said person.
The one kid that hit Monoma lifted the knocked-out jerk, "That's because she is prepping for the beauty pageant. So…"
Silver tilted his head, "A beauty pageant? What's that?" Izuku seemed shocked and no one answered his question, "What's a beauty pageant?" Silver repeated sadly as Tetsutetsu said something along the lines of 'Monoma is right, we'll rock it with our play' or something.
Silver sighed as they walked away and repeated his question for a third time to his friend and Izuku laughed awkwardly, "Like a contest to see who is prettier or something…?" Silver blinked, a small flush bleeding onto his face, "They wear pretty dresses and do hair up so nice and stuff and do routines on stage and stuff…people vote for the winner and what not…" Silver couldn't help but image a certain lilac cat all dressed up, with her hair down doing a soft gymnastics routine he had seen only a few times from her, her smile shone in his mind and Silver unknowingly turned into a tomato, "...You ok?"
"I know who I would vote for." Silver muttered a bashful reply, causing Izuku to look confused and a little worried, "...Never mind, that sounds cool." Silver snapped out of his trance and turned to Mirio who spoke after a while of listening.
"Well it's too late to enter, but you know who is working hard to win this year?" Mirio asked with a slightly giddy smile, while Silver tilted his head and Izuku mirrored Silver's confusion.
"No idea," Izuku said and look at Mirio waiting for an answer… they were dragged to the other side of the school before they got one. (A\N; Kk so I scrambled what I have written next from memory, the manga, and YouTube videos…sorry it's a little skippy)
"Last year's runner-up!" Mirio proudly announced to the floating girl who looked at their appearance surprised, "Nejire Hado!" The pale psychic got a wave of confusion, Wasn't it ranked first place, second place, a third place so on? What's a runner-up?
"Runner Up?" Silver echoed prepared with the new term and Izuku nodded showing similar bewilderment, more so shock.
The freaked teen looked wide-eyed, "How did you only get second? Your so-so-so-"
"Pretty?"
"Yeah!" Deku nodded, "Yeah your very nice-looking!" Nejrie shrugged after calming down from cooing about Eri.
The dressed-up girl softly landed on the ground as she explained, "The same girl always beats me. Beberi Mekenzi from class 3-G! She's just too good!" Silver smiled at her good sportsmanship, it was nice to see she didn't hold any hate towards her rival. Instead a nice admiration.
"I heard Kendo is also competing," Amakiji said coming out of the shadows making Silver have a mini heart attack, "She picked up a lot of underground fans from the hair commercial…and having to go on stage with all those eyes…" The shy teen fell on his knees and held his torso, "I get so sick thinking about it."
Silver wasn't exactly sure how to properly react so he just kinda shifted away from Amakiji, he didn't quite want his nice and only pair of boots to be barfy. Mirio laughed before saying they had to head out to Development Studio. Silver nodded and wave off the contestants, wishing them good luck and happily walked back with Mirio, Izuku, and sweet little Eri who had wide-eyed the entire time. As the teen duo spoke to little Eri, Silver let his thoughts wander. It hadn't been that long since he first started in U.A. and yet he had improved a lot…he was also very hungry. He snapped from his thoughtful gaze when Mirio pointed to a sign above and exclaimed they were at the Support Corse and Silver immediately remembered why he didn't like being here.
Not the loud noises, not the machines, not even Hasume (-ok a little bit Hasume-)...Silver stared up at the giant robot in the room and his ears bent back.
Amber eyes looked at the mystical metal robot suspiciously and frowned, not moving from his spot or saying a word. Just staring and frowning, fully expecting it to malfunction and explode and half expecting it to lung and attack him. The pale psychic's tense position didn't even falter when he hears his friend jump.
He shuttered hearing the all too familiar voice of Hasume, she hadn't quite left the two on the best terms, "It's finally the Support Corse's Time to SHINE!" She cheered making the other three in his group turn around and look at the large robot behind them, Silver only squinted a little more at the robot.
"Wow, Hasume! Thats impressive! But you are a little…er…dirty. Have you-" Izuku said worried for the hard-working female while she rolled her eyes and tossed her wrench in the arm and whipped her forehead.
"I've got no time to waste on bathing! I need to make sure my baby is all ready!" The hedgie-boy tensed further and locked his position into a reading spring jump after he hear some off noises coming from inside the shiny bot.
She continued about how excited she was about the 'big wings' or whatever seeing her babies. Don't get him wrong, Silver was genuinely happy she was excited. He didn't dislike the excitable engineer, he understood her intentions were pure and helpful and she was a lot like Marine, but he just didn't exactly trust anything robots made by humans. They've always done him wrong. When her hand slammed into her creation, Silver flinched and immediately knew it was gonna explode.
"Silver, why so tense?" Hasume asked noticing Silver's intent glare onto her baby,
"Do you like my baby?" He simply shook his head, not breaking eye contact when it started rattling and smoking, "WHAT?! This baby is my best invention yet! I've been working day and night on her for the last week!"
Izuku tilted his head with confusion behind the hedge-boy, "Yeah that's a little rude. She's been working hard on it, so why are you so against it?" Silver didn't say anything as the rattling and smoke became more and more apparent.
"I just don't like robots." He answered bluntly, not moving an inch from his spot nor those large amber orbs, "Your mech looks like it's about to explode." The teen also stated, making Hasume turn right when it exploded.
"MY BABY!"
He was suddenly dragged backward by the collar of his uniform, "Sorry Hatsume! Gotta go! Come on Eri, let's go!" Izuku cried ushering Eri, leaving Silver to speculate Mirio was dragging Silver out. (A\N; He is. Mirio is so sweet! Knowing Silver isn't gonna move so he chokes dragging him outta there! T-T That's sweet right?)
Silver sat happily with a creation he thought he wouldn't see again. Yes, Eri was right there. Yes, Mirio and Izuku looked a little weirded out. (A\N; Hello again, couldn't find a yes or no to this so uh…Imma does it my way. Cause if I can't find a realistic answer, then Im gonna make my answer. Sorry if it's not realistically correct-) Yes, Lunch Rush gave him the weirdest look for his request. But he did not care. Silver was starving from all those failed bubble attempts, and Eri was sipping on a drink so he got himself lunch too. Sonic would have been proud of his choice, to say the least, but Silver had been missing his home quite a bit so the best way to feel nice and comfy again was to eat a familiar food. A good ol' Chilli Dog, and since he is a sweet tooth he couldn't help getting a donut too. Using his powers he split the donut evenly and gave Eri some, the wanting eyes of Izuku landed on the donut but tried to avoid knowing it wasn't his.
The young psychic gave the other half of the sweet treat to Deku sadly who looked surprised but Silver nodded for him to enjoy it. After all, Silver had a yummy chilly dog. Silver bit into his lunch finally and nostalgia filled him as he savored the flavor and closed his eyes. He could practically smell the sweet aroma of Amy's baking, feel the soft breeze of Solona's ocean waters, hear the loud bustle of people in Station Square, best of all the blue hedgehog devouring a plate of these delicious hot dogs in only a few seconds. Maybe it was the onions or the intensity of the chilly powder, but his eyes watered as a huge grin crossed his mouth. Who knew a simple hot dog, which he normally found too spicey to even eat, would bring him so much joy and memories? While Izuku and Mirio found it weird, Silver found it to be one of the best foods. Is this why Sonic loved them so much? …nah he just enjoys the dogs themselves.
"Soooo…" Izuku said awkwardly making Silver open his eyes, ending the homey nostalgia for the most part, "That's about everything Eri." The leafy teen turned away from staring at Silver awkwardly towards the child sipping her drink.
Mirio mirrored Midoriya's movements, both were weirded out by Silver's food choice for the day, "How was it? Feeling comfy here yet?" Silver tilted his head, quickly swallowing his bite of savory and spicy delight.
Silver knew he wasn't comfortable after one tour, it took him a little while to get the hang of things, so he expected the same for her. "I…" She thought for a moment after her sip and everyone looked at her softly and curiously, "I don't know…" Mirio and Izuku just looked a bit embarrassed and Silver nodded.
"That's ok, it might take a while." He said with a soft smile, "Took me a while for sure."
She nodded softly, seeming more content with her answer, "But…" She looked into her drink, "There are so many people…" Silver tilted his head confused at where she was going, "All working hard…so…" That was more than enough to get Mirio and Deku grinning ear to ear with large smiles.
Silver felt his heart smile a bit at her sweetness and sincerity, "Now that's what we call excitement!" Everyone turned at the new voice showing a mobain-like mouse sitting next to Ms. Midnight, shocking Silver to the core (A\N; If I recalled correctly, Silver hasn't met Nezu yet-) "It seems it was worth the effort!" The mobain-like mouse said in the same voice that had spoken only seconds before.
"Principal Nezu! Mrs. Midnight!" Izuku exclaimed with shock, Silver more so. He had heard of the principal's name and seen his office, but hadn't seen him in person!
And it took literally every muscle in his body not to scream "WAIT YOUR A MOBIUN?!" Because upon a closer look, the small mousy principal wasn't a Mobain. He didn't have a mussel, true not every animal species did like Vector didn't have one, but 95% of them did, mice included. And his hands were more like paws than the evolved more human-like hands, often covered with gloves. And Mobains had very large eyes…so Nezu wasn't a Mobiun but it still was similar. Silver was still just tense, before calming himself enough with the obvious differences.
A warm thing slowly leaked onto his glove and Silver glanced down to notice he had been squeezing his poor chili dog in an attempt to not shout his misguided shock, "Enough Kayama." Silver snapped out of his trance, feeling guilty for missing most of what the principal said, but the once fully cheese block only was left to be a few morels, "Now then! I've got places to be." Nezu hopped up from his chair calmly, "I do hope you kids have fun with this!" The small leader of the school started before stopping suddenly and turned with a look towards Silver, "Nice to see you in person finally." He gave a soft smile which Silver couldn't help but return, "I hope to see you flourish into the bright hero you can be." Said the principal making Silver happily flustered before Nezu briskly walked off.
The psychic never understood how to respond to a compliment, Blaze always used it as his 'weak spot' when she was embarrassed to make him stop whatever he was doing. "I'll spare you the gory details but…" Mrs Midnight said attracting everyone's attention once again, "Nezu fought hard to keep this year's festival going, even if he ruffled some feathers to do so." Silver tilted his head at her words, "Security will be tighter, and if an alarm goes off…even by mistake…then we have to cancel the festival and evacuate." Oof, those were harsh conditions…if something fell and leaned on the wrong button, that would break hundreds of hearts, "Naturally we are raising our defenses as well! We even let Hound dog off his leash!"
"Wow! That's good at least!" Izuku said positively.
"Oh, and the whole staff is excited about Class A's attraction! I hope the show is as good as I've heard~!" Mrs. Midnight said with an odd sing-songy voice before sauntering off.
Leaving Silver to finally finished his chilly dog- "What's your class doing Deku?" Silver's mouth was full of the nostalgic chili dog again so he left his friend to explain about the show while he glanced at his phone.
As Izuku finished explaining that he and Silver would be dancing during their class dance party show thing, Silver's eyes widened and he got up hurriedly with an odd shocked choking noise as he tried to swallow quickly so he could speak again, "Izuku our break time is up! We gotta go! We are late-!" Midoriya popped up from his seat, and gave a quick wave and goodbye to Eri, then friends ran down the halls of the busy school. The psychic not letting his happy lunch go just yet.
"WHAT?!" Silver shouted, his quill-like hair puffing up slightly as his body grew rigid, "WHY?! WHAT DID HE DO?!" It had only been a week! He didn't have time to-
"Oh, it's nothing he did." Mina said quickly, "Guess my tone was harsh, I mean Midoriya, you are being moved to the Effects Team!" Deku visibly seemed to slump a bit at that, "The gym doesn't have a rig but they want to swing Aoyama above everyone like a live disco ball." She explained and Silver glanced at his friend, "We need someone strong enough to carry him over everyone's heads."
Silver piped up, hating to see he best friend waste all that work, "But I could-"
Ashido quickly shook her head, "Nope, you cant." Before Silver could interject she continued, "You can barely focus on those lantern-like bubbles while dancing, add Aoyama-? Yeah, something will go wrong." …her point was true but he was sure he could- "Don't even try to fight back Silver, this is a team. Not a 'grab too much for yourself' thing. We need to spread all the work evenly with everyone for it to play off smoothly ok? Remember, 'team' doesn't have an 'I' in it."
Well, she just successfully shut down any valid fight points he had…which he had none BUT STILL! Izuku hummed, "Well if I can dance on stage before Aoyama turns to a disco ball-" Silver's face scrunched as he shuffled closer to Deku, "-then I wouldn't have wasted any dance practice and I wouldn't have accidentally lied to Eri! Can we do that?" Aoyama seemed to get a little nervous with Silver's sudden movement but didn't do anything about it.
"Of course! Thank you so much Midoriya! You're a lifesaver!" Kirishima said happily before thankfully patting the freckled teen on the back.
Ashido nodded, writing down this new arrangement, "This works perfectly because you and Aoymama have been all buddy-buddy recently!" A pile of bricks dropped into Silver's gut, he couldn't say anything even though he desperately wanted to.
He would open his mouth, no words came out. He would try to write it down, but his hand wouldn't write. He tried to even Telepathically warn Deku, noooope! Coulnt even THINK about it when a link of any kind was up. The frustrated teen couldn't even avoid him because that would give enough hints away. So Silver just stood closer to the green-haired counterpart and gave a sour, almost jealous looking, glare at Aoyama. To everyone else, Silver just was jealous of the two's friendship. While Silver and Aoyama both understood his true intentions behind the glare. And Silver knew Aoyama knew, the blonde Frenchie didn't maintain eye contact long and shuffled backward as his face began to sweat.
"Uh, Silver..?" Izuku asked with befuddlement on his face, "You ok….?" He trailed off Silver nodded and flashed a bright smile to Deku, yet the leafy teen could catch a rare-to-see look of hate or spite in Silver's eyes as he glanced at Aoyama one more time before leaving the room.
"Im gonna grab a snack, all this dance practice with the bubbles tiers me quickly," Silver said at the doorway, "That with the cafe and school, I'm extra hungry and sleepy. Gotta keep my energy up!" The psychic teen waved goodbye as he exited the room, "Don't do anything stupid while I'm away Izuku!"
The room stayed awkwardly silent as the students shifted and Izuku murmured, "I won't…" Silver's behavior was odd to say for sure, and in the few months Midoriya had known him, Silver hadn't gotten mad or spiteful before.
Well…that was memory loss Silver, this was the real Silver with all his memories so it made sense for him to act a little different if not entirely so but…something just seemed off. Hate wasn't something common for Silver, not that Izuku knew of…so why was he acting like that to Aoyama? There wasn't anything different between them, nothing happened that made Silver mad with Aoyama…again nothing that Izuku knew of. But the trainee was sure his best friend would have told him if Aoyama did something to upset him, broke something of his, or ate his food but Silver just didn't ever talk about him.
Silver tried to stay away from him as much as he could…but wouldn't exactly avoid Aoyama…he wouldn't walk away or get upset visibly nor ask Izuku to stop if he was talking about the Frenchie. Silver was fine with him before his memory came back, then he just seemed all sketchy of him after his memory came back. Did they have a past together? No, Silver was from another world and he was held captive with All for One then Komino happened…so what was up with Silver?
(A\N; Hehe, hello. We are still with Midoriya for now ^-^') Izuku grunted as he landed on the pillows grass below holding his hand painfully, "Ouch!" All Might rose his brows with worry before handing his appearance an ice pact.
"Something seems to be on your mind, the school festival I take it?"
The freckled teen turned to his teacher, taking the ice pack with a thankful nod but frowned, "Well yes I've been excited about it. But I'm more worried about Silver…"
All Might's face changed to confusion, "Well it's not much of anything, its pretty small and I'm probably just imagining things, but I can't stop thinking about something that happened a few days ago." Izuku sat down to take a breather as he allowed himself to voice his worries to his idol, "Everything was fine and Ashido was updating me about our roles and stuff and Silver was there. Everything was normal till Ashido brought up that I and Aoyama have been 'buddy buddies' recently and Silver just seemed… weird."
