Izuku was clearly baffled and dumbfounded at the task sir nighteye gave him, sir himself was unfazed with the reaction. "your sense of humor is appallingly badly." he said with a stoic face.
"nah, you're too serious to catch the punch-line." koyuki said.
Almost everyone face Palm.
"koyuki-chan..." mirio said.
"nonetheless... I'm offering you a chance. I'm quite kind, aren't i?" sir nighteye said, HD glanced to the 2 students. "mirio, bubble girl, dragneel. Pls leave the room."
"yes sir!" both 3rd year student and sidekick dashed out, koyuki turned her head and met izuku's emeralds. He shrugged sheepishly, so she threw him an encouraging thumbs up and a broad smile.
Which the greenette return with his own smile, 'thanks koyuki, it's just what I need. I will get that stamp!' he declared.
Off screen Izuku smiled and felt the same thing.
The energetic blonde suddenly petted her silver locks, "wow, koyuki-chan! You must've secretly made sir laugh without trying." he said.
Quirking her silver brow in confusion, "I don't remember making any funny jokes..."
Both bubble girl and mirio stared at her with stunned faces, 'then what was that all about?' they thought.
"wait, did you guys actually thought she was acting it up calling him a pervert?" yuumi looked at the audience who a few looked sheepish.
"so she actually was real!? I thought she was acting!" kyoka said in shock.
"just because she helped a couple musicals doesn't mean she act every time." Joanne said with a deadpan look.
"besides, even I thought he had some weird fetish. But he doesn't." gran torino confirmed.
Izuku and sir nighteye stood in silence; Izuku tensed when the former sidekick flip the stamp in midair. The greenette relaxed, "I will not fight back at all, come at me with whatever sort of attacks you wish. Any amount of damage in this room is acceptable so long as you steal my seal." Izuku stretched ready and sprinted his body of electric green power, "a frontal assault." dashing below and leapt up, "or so you want me to think." swiping down for the stamp that was quickly out of reach, "from above." He said in amusement.
"how did he do that!?" both happy and denki said in unison.
"sir nighteye's quirk is foresight, he just have to touch you in order to get a glimpse of future events. He predicted midoriya's actions." recovery girl answered, sir nighteye himself explained his quirks.
"that's a very useful quirk." momo said.
"but if I use my quirk for an hour it needs a 24 hour cool down." he said.
"wait, how come you weren't at the kamino ward in that alternate universe?" kirishima asked bl but received no answer.
Desk closing in and quickly thinking of using it as a leverage to push off, "into another assault." swiping in once more, sadly they leaned from his reaching hands. "I see all." A minute has passed, Izuku kept relentlessly chasing after the stamp. But with each dash, jump, leap, swipe and other methods, it was pointless. "you will put some distance between us, for a moment." he said unscathed, the young greenette kept their distance and panted from exhaustion. Frowning in disbelief, "and then grow uneasy." he proudly hold up the untouched stamp for the boy to see, "your coming to terms with the fact that you have no way to counter for my foresight, I was looking forward to finding out what kind of person you may be." Izuku's muscles laxed slightly at this, "you may have the symbol of peace's power, but you are utterly mediocre." the 9th user flinch internally, sweat cascading down his cheek. "with the villains running amok, we begin to see a shadow descending upon the coming era. That being the case, as a thought, one for all should have gone to mirio."
Everyone was completely shocked, but mirio felt used, betrayed. Fairy tail and the parents growled in anger. "I hate him." they muttered.
Izuku's full cowling ceding, quite shaken. "one for all to togata-senpai...?"
"you wanted me to take Izuku's quirk." mirio said standing up and shaking in rage.
"mirio, you are an excellent candidate. I trained you to--" sir nighteye said calmly.
"shut up... Midoriya deserves that quirk."
"he still has problems--"
"I already have a quirk, I'm my own hero."
"mirio, Pls understand--"
"thereason you want him to take one for all is because mirio is almost a replica of all might, you want him to be just like all might. Same build, almost similar hair colour and same sense of justice." Joanne interrupted him, "you wanted an all might replica but that's not how it works."
"mirio was the 1st candidate and you said you would consider it." he pointed to the no. 1 hero.
"and I gave you my answer, young togata is a marvelous hero without one for all." all might said, "but it was my quirk and I choose who is the better candidate."
"I trained mirio to handle your quirk!"
"which didn't go to waste, he is his own hero as young midoriya is the hero he wants to be."
"you only trained him for 10 months and he almost got killed by one for all!"
"true, but he didn't give it up not for me and not just for young dragneel and Daisy. I'm sorry mirai that I didn't choose young togata but young midoriya is the mistake." the drama was very quiet and almost everyone could only watch.
"well you got your answer." Shinso whispered to kaminari.
"kinda regretting it now." denki whispered back.
"I still have great respect and love for all might, but on the matter of successor. I fail to understand his vision." continuing to wave the stamp leisurely, he watched Izuku's stance and hesitance. "do you really have the luxury of such consideration? Or are you fatigued out of strategies?"
"even after watching how much he's going through you still won't consider my decision on him." all might said not even looking at sir nighteye.
Izuku's fist clenched, "I was shocked when mirio told me you wanted an introduction, so I might as well state this plainly. There was a far more suitable candidate for one for all, I cannot approve of you."
"he doesn't need your approval asshole!" koyuki shouted.
"hey, Deku deserve one for all! He saved my life with it!" ochako said.
"he has the right to become his own hero." shoto said.
"mirai, that kid practically earned it." gran torino said.
"you can be a hero..." a flashback of all might told him that.
Izuku's jaws clenched, green electric pulse throughout his body and muscles; leaning all his weight on his toes. Emeralds revealing sheer and flaming resolve, as he blasted himself off the walls like a fazing beam. His silhouette barely seen through his tremendous speed, orbs narrowed. "I'll be taking that seal from you now." barely catching the man's narrowed and stoic features, "I will get your approval." 'I need to do this, koyuki passed and I will not leave empty handed!'
"you can do it Izuku!" koyuki cheered along with fairy tail.
"your, you're own hero kid!" gajeel shouted.
"show that pervert your a hero!" natsu shouted.
"come on Izuku! You can do it!" happy cheered.
"show that hero what you're made of!" Daisy cheered.
Sir nighteye is included. "your like an inferior version of gran torino, your so slow it's pointless!" Izuku was so close to snatching the stamp when he noticed the hero's white sockets now black with their pupils stylized into an intricate design, "once the conditions are met, then it could be at second, a minute or an hour from now on." evading the boy's reaching hand once more, "I can see where you'll be and what you'll be doing at any point during the time frame." skidding the floors, before blasting once more at the man and leapt swiftly. "incidentally, 2 minutes have already passed, yet you're still struggling to acquire the seal and form."
Izuku flipped in the air, unable to comprehend the man's predictions. "no way!"
"so what! Fate isn't set! You can change it!" koyuki shouted and fairy tail agreed remembering how ultear saved and changed their fate.
"such an uneasy expression this entire time, despite what you can only imagine was the first thing all might taught you." sir nighteye said, " sir nighteye oddly bent from dodging midoriya's speed, "those standing on the top must never openly show their doubt and unease, by understanding that. They can hold on to their vision and act accordingly, despite being told countless times, no doubt, you can't seem to put that guideline into practice even in a safe testing environment such as this." glaring now, "you swore you'd make me accept you?" almost huffing in mockery, "the more I see, the more I fail to understand why it had to be you."
"no one should tell you about your fate!" Daisy told him the day all might said he couldn't be a hero but she believe he can be a hero, even koyuki declared he is her hero. "don't you let anybody say what you can and can't do, OK Izuku?"
Izuku was silent and understands, despite what everyone says about him. It was koyuki who would always believe in him, koyuki would always believe in him. When everyone didn't, she lit up his world.
Teeth grinding harshly, landing against the wall. "they said I could!"
"they did? To a nobody like you?" sir nighteye mocked.
"Izuku is a hero!!!" all of fairy tail shouted believing in him.
Izuku angrily snapped up, steel determination in his eyes. "they said I will be the greatest hero and believe in me." without hesitation whatsover, he wretched the desk beside him at the hero. Papers and books scattered in the air and flying in their sights, "sorry, but you said I could mess up this room all I want!" he zapped around the falling books and fluttering paper, the objective in his sights. "I'm all might's disciple!!" he leapt in top speed.
Barely even touching the man's skin, he listlessly stared at him. "I'm not seeing anything new."
"not yet--" he gasped in horror and slammed full force to the wall, nose bleeding from impact. Snapping and hastily propping himself up, "not yet!" he said in a pleading cry.
"that's 3 minutes, it's over!" the greenette shakes his head in denial, "his disciple? That's shocking to hear." shoulders dropping in defeat, bowing his head. "your 1 actual strategy failed, and you fall to pieces just like that? Did you lose focus?"
"no, I didn't lose focus."
The former sidekick sighed, "just a blunder, then."
"That's all might's 10th anniversary commutative poster that's not sold anywhere, I didn't wanna step on it."
"he may want to be a hero but he's still a fan boy at heart." macarov smiled, inko smiled at her alternate son.
"you avoid hitting all of them while bouncing about like gran torino." sir nighteye looked impressed.
"damn." Izuku cursed under his breath.
The door slammed open and koyuki huffing with catty-wild eyes, "what the hell is going on here!?"
"dragneel! You're going to destroy the door to shreds!" bubble girl frantically rushed to check the doors damage, slightly cringing at the obvious cracks formed.
"not the 1st time I destroyed a door." koyuki said.
"koyuki, I told you many times. The door doesn't count as a pole vault!" makarov shouted.
"what?" the my hero academia group asked in confusion.
"why did she use a door as a pole vault?" mitsuki asked.
"gee, I don't know. Laxus do you remember?" natsu teased looking at the lightning dragon slayer who grumbled under his breath, they remembered koyuki going on a rampage and used the guild hall doors that hit both laxus and bixlow. Those splinters still hurt.
"excuse usss!" mirio made himself known and found the situation comical.
"I accept both of them, mirio." sir nighteye said making the distraught teen rigid in shock.
The audience were either confused or shocked.
Koyuki blinked in stupor and confusion, "... Them...?"
"both midoriya and dragneel." the blonde cheered.
"whoa, cool! Nice going, man!"
"Huh!?" Izuku clearly not understanding how he passed, "but I totally failed!"
"although I did tell you to steal my seal and stamp the form yourself, I never said I would reject you if you failed to do so." sir nighteye said.
"but..."
A hand petted his head and the silverette gave him a reassuring smile, "Izuku, you won by swaying him. That's your victory."
Izuku felt both at ease and happy.
He blinked in awe, "I... I guess so..."
"you both did it, midoriya, koyuki-chan! You made sir laugh!" mirio made them jump from the volume of his voice.
"I still have no idea how I even made him laugh." koyuki said getting frustrated over this.
"speaking of that. Hey, nighteye, how did I make you laugh?"
"you actually made all might bow in apology and throw him with witty jabs that actually have him wheezing." sir nighteye glanced away trying to hide a snort.
All might felt comidically betrayed but gran torino found it humorous, "I freaking knew it!!!" he laughed, but everyone stopped hearing sir nighteye snickered then full blown laugh.
"well, you never gave him any mercy." mirajane giggled, most of the audience found it very amusing.
'did that actually happened!? ' both sidekick and 3rd year Thought.
Sir nighteye cleared his voice, "your placement here was decided the moment I heard you were coming." midoriya looked like he still didn't quite understand, "and I knew all along that you wouldn't be completely useless to me."
"I have--" koyuki was cut off by him.
"save your sass another time, dragneel."
"what the heck!? Are you like cobra!?"
'a snake?' mirio thought in confusion.
Joanne explained who cobra is, "a mage that can hear souls!?" toru asked in shock.
"not only that but he's a poison dragon slayer, man are there any wood or rock dragon slayers?" Shinso asked.
"not that I know of, dragons rarely train humans dragon magic. This kind of magic counter attacks them, but there are many dragons not very fond of humans. There used to be a dragon war, the dragons were nearly extinct. So they gave their legacy to dragon slayers." Joanne explained.
"but I still hadn't accept you" sir nighteye retrieved Izuku's file from the scattered papers on his desk, "now that the people are without their symbol, they don't need merely a spark, but rather a brighter and shining light."
Raising her silver brow, "but the smallest spark can shine the brightest." shrugging sluggishly, "we're just desperate that we missed their potential." everyone looked at koyuki in a mix of surprise.
Almost everyone had a look of awe and Shinso felt like that line was for people like him.
Izuku held a shy smile, 'koyuki, you never fail to speak what's on your mind and heart...'
Koyuki smiled shyly.
Sir nighteye hummed in understanding, "maybe do... " turning back to the greenette, "even if it goes against his will, you will gain the experience in this pro hero office that will make you very aware of who is the best suited to that power." he dropped the seal and Izuku quickly catch it with his palm.
"I don't want one for all." mirio said.
"mirio, you have potential to become the next symbol of peace."
"I'm not taking a quirk midoriya deserves it, I want to be a hero my own way. Not a replica of all might, I want to be my own hero. You taught me so much but I want to be my own hero, I can't be all might, I can't be a replica, I'm more than that."
Izuku was in disbelief but quickly shook it off and frowned determinedly to the hero, "thank you for this."
Izuku was having mix feelings if he even wanted to work study under sir nighteye, the former sidekick dislikes him and practically use mirio for the wrong reasons.
"hey, Izuku, we'll be working together." koyuki said.
Katsuki grumbled, shoto was having mix feelings since the internship he's alternate self was interning with koyuki at his father's agency. Alternate katsuki wouldn't get a chance interning with her, ochako felt the same.
Izuku snapped up rigidly, freckled cheeks blooming with colour. "oh! Uh..." emeralds clashing with bright azures, "happy to be working with you, partner."
"mm!"
giving a deep nod towards the dragon slayer, he looked elated and tried to hide his flushed cheeks and shy smile, 'working together... As partners.' he thought.
Koyuki smiled remembering fond memories of fairy tail, Izuku would love being part of the guild. Their a bunch of weirdos but he'll fit just right.
It was mid afternoon and both students came back to the dorms exhausted; Izuku from sir nighteye's challenge and koyuki's motion sickness. An auburn teen in a toffee colored baggy sweater dress with black, grey slip-on shoes paused at the sight of the 2, "ah, izuku! Koyuki!"
Shinsho blushed, he has been noticing Daisy a lot.
Koyuki re-energized immediately and gave the human exceed a bright smile, "Daisy!" she speed walk towards her and threw her arms around the girl, "how's my girl doing?"
Ears pulled back bashfully, but returned a smile. "find thank you, classes are quite exhausting but fun nonetheless."
Joanne and Stella explained daisy's schooling in UA at class C, she's much of a fighter. "hey, that's your class right Shinso?" kaminari asked the purple teen, since the electric user knows mineta is a terrible influence.shinsho seems like a cool dude to befriend.
"yeah..." Shinso said blushing.
"man, I wish I had that form of mental enthusiasm for school like you." koyuki let out a childish groan.
Aizawa's eye twitch, he will never forgive dragneel for dragging his alternate self like a husky race. He prefers cats over dogs.
Daisy gave the dragon slayer a clear scolding-scowl, "you just need motivation and optimism."
"the only dragon slayer willing to accept school are Wendy and rogue, the rest will die of boredom." Lucy said, natsu and gajeel were annoyed because she was right.
"what about me?" laxus said.
"laxus you don't even give a damn about school." macarov said.
"and cobra would cheat with he's soul magic." Levy said.
Koyuki backed up and playfully held her heart in pain, "you wound me, daisy."
It was a little funny.
Izuku chuckled at the 2 playfully banter and jab at each other, "I'll head up to my room if you 2 need me." he excused himself.
Once he was out of earshot, koyuki turned serious. The exceed noticed, "today I'm going to call someone before I send the lacrima back."
Daisy frowned slightly, "who are you calling?"
"juvia."
It was like a record player hulted playing a vinly record.
Daisy became rigid and clear concern in her features, "koyuki, you sure about this?" remembering koyuki's crush on the water mage pinning over gray a lot.
"I'm just being honest here but she's... Kinda creepy..." snipe said, most of the audience did find juvia's stalking on gray a bit much.
Koyuki straightened her shoulders, "I've been holding this off, so I should at least listen."
"koyuki." Daisy looked quiet shocked but proud, "you do know you have my full support."
Koyuki hugged her exceed partner.
Glancing away, rubbing under her nostrils bashfully with a soft smile. "I know." both heading their own directions, the silverette headed to her room alone, Daisy remembered koyuki watching this cartoon show called Steven universe. She became obsessed with the song stronger than you and giant woman.
"I love Steven universe!" Pony gushed.
"what's Steven universe?" koyuki asked.
"it's an amazing show about alien gems living on earth, it has singing, dancing, cooking and the most astonishing reveal! We can watch it another time!" Vivi said with stars in her eyes.
"you can do this...! you can do this...!" she prepped herself, she turned on the lacrima.
"koyuki? " it was juvia.
'I don't know if I can do this!?' she started to sweat on temple and cheeks, "he-hey, juvia." almost flinching, she gulped shakenly. "um.
. Juvia--"
"she prep herself for nothing..." momo sighed.
"koyuki..." juvia cut her off, the rain woman seemed to have bubbling tears, "forgive juvia for not noticing your feelings sooner." she dared not look at the Dragon slayer, "juvia didn't consider yours." lips trembling.
Everyone was quite, "she just figured it out just now!?" mina gawk, Lucy remembered when koyuki was trying to get over her crush on juvia. When they visited the house the rain woman and gray stayed in, juvia finally figured out koyuki's crush on her and let her down gently.
'how did she know and why is there rain in the background!?' koyuki thought and glanced away, "but you didn't know... I was just..."
"juvia still wished she knew, juvia would have explained herself properly." juvia said.
"can she stop speaking in 3rd person?" sero asked.
"juvia..." koyuki felt touched.
"koyuki..." this cause the silverette to straighten herself, "juvia's sorry, but juvia cannot reciprocate those feelings because juvia isn't bisexual."
"stalking that ice mage was our clear answer." mezo said.
"I should've guessed." her azures roam down to her clenched hands, seeing them lax. Fluttering her eyes closed, she looked relieved.
"but juvia still wants to be koyuki's friend! Juvia missed talking to koyuki." she said meeting the silverette's shocked azures.
They suddenly turned away, "I'm sorry." she muttered.
"koyuki? " the rain woman asked in concern.
"I was so selfish, I didn't know what to do. But to run away from the pain, I should've just told you too."
"koyuki... It wasn't your fault."
"but it is my foolish mistake."
"koyuki." the rain woman held a proud smile, "you've grown."
She jumped in surprise, before rubbing her nose bashfully. "heh heh... Really? I still think I'm still little old me."
"your not little anymore sis." natsu ruffled her hair.
Juvia giggled at the silver haired pixie's modesty, "no, you've matured so much. Maybe for you, you don't see it. But your time skip drastically showed your change."
"ah... So you noticed." the silverette nodded in confirmation, "ever since we saw you during the battle, we knew right away you've changed." frowning slightly, then smiled softly. "but seeing you with short hair, juvia can see natsu. Giggling slightly, "you 2 are indeed siblings."
Both natsu and koyuki had that similar grin.
The silverette bawled up her fist, "koyuki? "
The ice and water Dragon slayer straightened up quickly, "yes?"
"juvia has to go now."
"go where? "
"juvia's sorry, but juvia must go."
"juvia--?" she flinched as the call got cut off, she frowned in concern. 'the hell did you do gray?'
"I've been helping erza." gray answered.
The screen went black and words appeared: hours ago... Daisy had her eyes narrowed on dull golden eyes, all might right next to her. His narrowed orbs on the strapped figure on the other side of the glass, cameras and rapid fire machine guns pointing directly at the prisoner. "I find it surprising that someone like you isn't insulting my presence nor demanding if koyuki is here." she glared harshly, "val cronos." the blonde purple haired man blink once.
"WHAT THE FUCK!!! " everyone outrage but none more than katsuki and Izuku.
"what's going on!?" toru asked.
"thanks to principal nezu, Daisy and all might are interrogating val. He is in tartarus." Joanne explained.
"will he give information about the other dark wizard's? " yuga asked.
"sadly, he may be out of their control but he's damaged from being possessed."
