Immortal academia
I wake up in an unfamiliar room sure that I fell asleep watching anime. As I look around my environment I notice a lot and I mean a lot of All Might posters. It looks like a stalkers room if I'm being honest. Confused, I reached for my phone and now even more confused, because that was not my hand. I mean it moved when I told it to, but it wasn't mine. It's too small to be mine, and a different color. I then noticed that I needed to pee, so I stood to go look for a restroom hopping off the bed. Wait hopping, did I get shorter? I quickly scurry down the hall in a panic. I find it down the hall and look in the mirror. It then dawned on me what was going on, this can't be real even if it is why, did I die and wake up?. In the mirror I see green hair, and a freckled face that looks like a young Izuku Midria. Oh shit I am Izuku Midora. Then remembering that nature was still calling u quickly relieved my bladder and went to my room to think. Trying to see if I had any of the boy's memories I sat in silence. I could remember that I was 6 and was diagnosed quirkless 2 years ago, also realizing that my memories of the MHA world have been restricted. I can remember the main cast and things that are coming soon but never the full story. "Izuku," I hear from the other room. "Yes," I reply quickly. "Get your uniform on, you need to be ready for school soon and your breakfast is on the table, hurry before it gets cold." my stomach allows itself to be heard as I realized that I'm going to have to play a new game plus of school. My body moves on autopilot as I get dressed and to the dining room table I contemplate on how I'm going to navigate the world. Do I let the plot auto guide me or do I deviate? One thing I know is Bakugo will not bully me quirk or no quirk I'll make sure of that personally. Following my new mom to the bus after asking if she can guide me I get to school and auto pilot to my desk. Thinking about my last night. I remember watching one piece seeing Marco fight both king and queen. I always loved his devil fruit. The blue fire is always so pretty. My thoughts were interrupted by a loud crackle on my desk. " What are you thinking about deku?" rolling my eyes, I look at the aggressive boy."Let's not do this today Bakugo I really don't have the energy for you right now." Looking angrier than before the boy scowled at me "Did you actually grow a spine overnight you damned nerd?" hands crackling with explosions. I leveled a calm yet serious gaze at him." I grew a lot overnight, Katsuki." He looked stunned for a second before appearing to realize something." The fuck you trying to say Deku!" He looked about ready to attack me as the teacher walked in and told everyone to take a seat. Class was as entertaining as any highschooler could find a 2nd grade class. At least the work was easy, but if I wasn't certain Bakugo could only produse explosions from his hands I would be afraid of his stare. Too bad for him he still has his baby fat and looks more adorable than intimidating. Class passed slowly as I finished my work quickly and went back to my thoughts. I have this gut feeling that the plot still is focused on me and that my actions are still a factor. I can remember the details of episode one and no further. I suspect that the sludge villain attack is guaranteed to happen regardless of what I do so I have two options.
I can 1 train myself to prepare or 2 let the plot progress naturally. My thoughts were yet again interrupted"outside now deku." looks like I wounded Bakugo's pride. Deciding the best way to avoid Bakugos bullying is to show strength. I chose to fight him. "If that's how you want to handle your wounded pride then let's take this outside."we get to the back of the school and I realize that we have a crowd. This could be bad if I lose here in front of a crowd this will only boost his ego, but if I win it will hurt his pride even more. This is a lose lose for me. If I even manage to win that is. Now in the middle of the group Bakugo turned to me "You ran your mouth too much deku lets see if that sudden spine you grew can help you fight you quirkless loser." he then ran at me explosions sparking out of his hands. He wasn't that fast and he was still inexperienced so his move was telegraphed. I saw the right hook coming and ducked under it without thinking. I thought I was in the clear but Bakugos instincts were sharp. as I was preparing an uppercut that would impress Naruto I saw Bakugos left palm and felt the heat on my face. I blocked the explosion with my left forearm but still went sliding back, it stung but the adrenalin wouldn't let me feel all the pain. Bakugo didnt let me rest for long before he bull rushed me again, but I was ready this time. I prepared to do a jumping knee attack to his chin but he stopped short of the attack and let off a double palm blast at me. This time I was completely unguarded and took the full attack, and it really hurt, I think my shirt caught fire. I fell hard in pain and he slowly walked to me "He's really going all out on the quirkless loser now" I hear off in the crowd some kids whisper. "Ha yeah Deku pissed him off this morning. It was funny, too bad he talked himself into a beating." some other kid replied. Bakugo stood over me with a scowl on his face "you really thought you could stand up to me Deku, you don't even have a quirk to-" the words died in his throat as the world around me warmed up and flickered with blue light. I felt my stamina recover and my pain faded, and I got a front row seat to Bakugos priceless face as it twisted and contorted into rage. "You liar!" he shouted at me "all this time you had a quirk and this is how you show me?! I STILL HATE YOUR GUTS DEKU!" He prepaid another explosion, but was interrupted as teachers arrived on the scene. Everything was a blur as I was escorted to the principal's office and our parents were called. I was too focused on the fact that I have a power that was eerily similar to Marco's. Our moms arrived at the same time and sat next to us with different expressions and. My mom looked concerned and confused while Bakugo's mom looked furious. "As I said on the phone, young Midoria here started an altercation with Katsuki which involved quirks. I must say I don't appreciate being lied to about Midoria's quirk" he said to our moms who both didn't believe what he said and were confused about my quirk. Turning to me with a silent question. "I just got my quirk in that fight, and you're a liar Bakugo swung first all I did was defend myself like normal he always uses his quirk on me and I got tired of it" smirking in my head knowing Bakugo wouldn't get in trouble with the school, but his mom would set him straight. My mom decided that enough was enough. "So you mean to tell me the until now quirkless boy started a fight with the kid with the strongest quirk in the school? Don't answer that because I know you will lie dont worry about it. I'm pulling my son from this school, and my lawyers will be in touch for your obvious discrimination." As my mom said that my memory of episode one changed before I could think about it, my mom instructed me to follow her. Once we got to the car she jumped on me and gave me a tight hug. Once she was satisfied with almost squeezing the internal organs out of me she closely examined me. My clothes were tattered, burnt, and scorched but I was completely unharmed. My skin actually looked clearer as well. Even my hair which I was sure had caught fire was the same as when I left the house. Now sure I was in good health, she couldn't contain the questions anymore." what happened Izuku what did he mean about your quirk?" Still unsure of it all myself I told her how and why the fight started and what I saw of my quirk." Oh it sounds like you have a healing quirk but I have nothing like that. Although your dad had a fire breathing quirk so I can see where the blue flames come from. I'll schedule an appointment with a quirk doctor to get you checked out until then don't try experimenting with your quirk inside." Nodding to show I understood we went home. I immediately go outside to experiment while my mom makes several angry phone calls. The first thing I do is try to summon the blue fire in my palm, finding it very easy. Noticing this time the flame isn't hot, it's not even warm. Even more strange is I can feel the fire the same way I can feel a limb. This completely confirms my suspension as I summon the fire to engulf me. My mom hurries from inside to the garden hose in a panic but I call out to her "Look mom, I'm fine!" She looks at me in awe as instead of seeing her small green haired son she sees a majestic bird of blue and orange flames. "Izuku what did you do? Are you ok in there?" She asked, looking more concerned than before. Removing the fire that surrounded me and coming out unharmed "I'm ok mom I think my quirk makes me a phoenix" looking stunned she again examined me. Once again sure I was ok, she warned me to be careful and went back inside to her phone calls. Now that I'm sure I have Marco's power I am confident that I can replicate some of his moves. Looking at the grass I notice the area I'm standing in looks healthier. I will the fire to my legs and watch as my feet morph into bird talons taking a lap around the yard in an attempt to even out the grass and coating the garden with my fire. The garden becomes a more vibrant green and all the flowers look healthier as I do this. This is even more proof, and it makes me more suspicious. It seems too convenient. I was just thinking about his powers and just fell asleep watching his clash with King and Queen. Is this a dream? No it can't be, the sting of Bakugo's quirk was too real, but how did I get here? There was no truck to send me to this world and I didnt die to my knowledge. Even more concerning is my memory of MHA. I can remember every anime I have watched but MHA is different. I remember all the main cast down to their quirks, appearance, back stories, and personalities. But I can only remember the sludge villain, no other villain. Speaking of the sludge villain, my future run in with him has changed and my interaction with Bakugo was removed from the episode. I now don't remember that episode as clearly. Now instead of remembering the full episode I just remember walking into the underpass and the villain leaps at me. The odd part is I know that the memory is missing but I for the life of me can't remember what it is. Withdrawing the fire from my feet I watch as my feet melt into existence leaving my pants and shoes untouched. It seems that I also now have an infinite amount of stamina with the only way to exhaust it being to heal something else of injuries. I also noticed that I can will my flames to not heal something but doing that cost stamina and serious concentration, but allows me to use the fire for blunt force. No matter how hard I try my fire won't burn anything, but it can give off heat not enough to be hot but just enough to be soothing, warm and cozy. I already knew most of this from the anime but some of these abbities are new to me. (note not all powers are 1 to 1 he has some powers marco doesn't) It also seems that I can passively improve the health of others simply by existing near them in the weeks that I have awakened my powers my mom hasn't coughed sneezed or even had a mild back pain. I also seem to have intangibility if I am in my phoenix form and if I have my blue flame active on any part of my body although this method takes concentration unlike my bird form which is passive. This allows attacks to pass through me but I cant pass through anything so it's only useful on attacks coming my way. This power seems too good to be true. I just need to discover what my weaknesses are but if my only weakness is water I'm set for life. After my deep dive into my power and experimenting in the backyard my mom told me I was taking it too far and any further testing needed to be done in a quirk gym. She also told me that she was sending me to a boarding school, and lucky for me it also happens to have said facility. I'll be heading off in a week but in the meantime we need to get my quirk registered. It was a quick doctor's trip. They did a lot of tests to see what I could do. They were really surprised with my proficiency I was showing so early after only recently awakening my quirk. After giving my mom some pamphlets for some programs and informing her of what they thought my limits were they also let me name the quirk deciding phoenix was too basic I named it Rejuvenating ember I don't know why but I like it. Still curious on what my weakness could be in my last shower I tried to summon my blue fire and found that the water didn't stop me from doing so. But I noticed it came out slower and took energy to summon it. Feeling bold I ran a bath and submerged my legs and tried to summon the fire this time I failed but only my legs were stopped. Everything else was unaffected.I suspect that my weakness to water isn't the same as the show but because I'm a firebird. So in rain situations I am weakened and it takes more stamina to use my powers if I'm wet but that's the only similarity my fire shares with regular fire. The week passed quickly and I was all packed and ready to go to my next elementary school. A bit nervous of the changes to the source material I have already caused, worried that I would be in the dark if I made another drastic change, but how was I supposed to know my mom would pull me from that school. And boarding school was a real curve ball but from what I overheard from my mom's conversation this is a school that focuses on hero prospects. Most UA recommendation students attend this elementary/middle school. I guess my quirk activation inspired her to support the hero dream the original Izuku had. It's very unfortunate that I'm only becoming a hero because the plot demands it but this is the situation I'm living in I guess. Arriving at the school my mom suddenly stopped and turned to me with tears in her eyes "Izuku…. I need you to know that I love you and I believe you will make a great hero. I know it's too late for those words you needed to hear them on the day you were announced quirkless, but I was too scared for my poor little baby fighting to say it back then. I'm not telling you this now because your quirk awakened, but because you showed me something. You showed me your courage. It took a lot of courage to stand up against Katsuki, and you did it without a quirk. With your drive and determination I believe you can do anything you say you want to do. That's why I brought you to this school, don't lose sight of that goal you once had, keep up the hard work and study hard, and no matter what I want you to know that I will support you in every step." I was honestly stunned. I wasn't expecting that at all I never had an emotional attachment to this woman but those words sparked something in me. I didn't mean to, hell I don't even know when it happened but I cried and hugged her. The next words left naturally. I didn't need to think about how to respond. "Thank you Mom I love you to" We hugged and cried for a few minutes but we had to go in and get me settled
