Chapter 2 – The Awakening
Bleary eyes creaking open Izuku awakens on a bed both familiar and unfamiliar. Sitting up in bed Izuku shakes his head to get readjusted to the light, looking around the room he found himself in Izuku sees posters of a smiling blonde-haired blue-eyed man covering three out of four walls while on the fourth wall lies a shelf with glass doors filled with mint condition figures of men and women in costumes.
"Ugh, wh… where… who is… wait All Might posters… Guess I truly am back huh" Izuku groans.
Flopping back onto his bed Izuku covers his eyes with a long sigh.
-Flashback-
Izuku fades into existence in a somewhat glowing ethereal white void, his body faintly glowing blue, a few feet away from him stands a tall, voluptuous woman with long blonde hair tied up with white ribbons in a very revealing white dress and blindfold (1).
"Goddess" Izuku exclaimed with reverence
"Izuku Midoriya" The Goddess spoke as she slowly strode towards Izuku, her voice soft melodic. "I and this world can never thank you enough for all you have done".
"It's fine Goddess, I just did what anyone would do" Izuku claimed waving his hands in embarrassment.
"No Izuku, you have done so much more, despite the selfishness of my request when I plucked you from your home twelve years ago, you still chose to act… to be a hero even though you had every right to refuse my request". The Goddess replied. "Know this Izuku you have my eternal gratitude for what you have done and if there is any wish you have that is within my power to grant then it shall be done"
"Goddess… is… is there any way for me to stay in your world?" a sad smile stretches across the Goddesses face as Izuku asked this.
"I'm sorry Izuku, I understand your situation and love for your companion Raya however I cannot grant you this wish due to the deal made with the Gods of your world to be allowed to summon you… no matter how much really I wish I could" The Goddess spoke, a sadness in her voice that seemed to make the void around her less vibrant.
"That's ok Goddess… I kinda figured it wouldn't be possible" Izuku remarked with resignation.
"Oh Izuku…" The Goddess whispers sadly as she gives Izuku a hug.
"Goddess what is gonna happen to me when I return to my home world?"
"Well, Izuku, according to the deal I made with your gods to summon you, you will be returned to the point in time when you left… as if you never left in the first place" The Goddess replied before giving Izuku a quick peck on the forehead causing him to blush like mad and the Goddess to giggle.
"G-Goddess w-what was that" Izuku stammered.
"A small gift Izuku… I saw how cruel your world treated you just because you didn't have a quirk, so I had an idea, I would record your skills and abilities onto you so when you return you will be able to use all your old powers".
"Thank you, Goddess" Izuku replied as his legs start to fade.
"Looks like your gods are calling you back to your home world now Izuku". The Goddess stats.
"Thank you, Goddess, for everything"
"No Izuku, thank you for all you have done these twelve years… please live long and be happy".
-End Flashback –
A long sigh escapes Izuku's lips as he reaches for the ceiling of his room.
"IZUKU BREAKFAST IS READY" a voice calls from down stairs.
Izuku's eyes widen and tears start to form as he hears the voice. "Mum" he breathed out remembering the only person who was on his side as he grew, the same mother he hadn't seen in twelve years. He quickly rushes to get up only to stumble and trip over eliciting a loud bang.
The sound of footsteps on stars can be heard as Inko Midoriya, a plump woman in with emerald green eyes and hair in a pink cardigan, white shirt and blue skirt, slams open the door in worry.
"Izuku are you aright that was a loud bang".
"Don't worry Mum, I'm fine, I just… must've slept on my leg wrong or something so my legs a little numb, I'll be alright", Izuku replied with Inko returning downstairs.
"What was that why did I trip over nothing" Izuku mused for a few minutes before a spark of realisation hit him causing him to groan and face palm "Idiot, I was sent back to the point when I was taken meaning I am fourteen now not twenty-six meaning I haven't hit my growth spirt… I'm still around five foot five not the six foot three that I was a before thus there is a disconnect between my mind and body where my mind thinks my limbs are longer than they are" he reasoned.
Stumbling to his feet using the bed as leverage Izuku briefly glances over at his calendar on the wall and lets out a breath of relief "At least I don't have school for a week, I could not start my third year of middle school if I was stumbling everywhere".
Thirty minutes later Izuku had managed to get himself up and slowly make it downstairs to the breakfast table.
"Izuku are you sure you're alright, it took you thirty minutes to come down" Inko asked worriedly as she placed breakfast on the table.
"Yeah mum, I'm fine no need to worry about me" Izuku replied before digging in.
"Alright Izuku if you're sure".
thirty minutes later after breakfast Izuku is back in his room sitting at his desk.
"Hmmm the Goddess stated that I will have access to all of my powers and abilities when I returned" Izuku said as he stops spinning on his chair.
Closing his eyes and focusing inward Izuku feels around for few minutes diving deeper until he feels a well of energy causing him to smirk, sticking his hand out palms up, Izuku draws on a tiny amount of this energy and directs through to his palm while visualising a small sphere of silver light rising and floating above his hand, opening his eyes to see the sphere of light shifts his smirk to smile of genuine joy.
"My Magic… I can use it" Izuku breathed out "onto experiment two" Izuku closes his eyes and imagines his hand reaching into a box and drawing out a silver tanto, he reopened his eyes to see the same silver tanto in his hands.
"I also still have my Storage Box… thank you Goddess" Izuku noted "Now onto test number three… well I better not test my physical stats inside I don't want to accidentally destroy anything, I better look up some abandoned places… heh I guess this will also test whether I remember how to properly use a computer or not".
It took Izuku one hour to get his laptop up and running and to find an abandoned area where he can practice and test abilities "Dagobah Municipal Beach huh, was once a beautiful beach before illegally dumped trash started accumulating on the sands, it has been essentially abandoned for a few years, is within walking distance of here… Perfect" Izuku said as he read of the screen.
The next day Izuku is down by Dagobah Beach, his body now used to moving with his new height.
"Ok strength test" Izuku noted as he picked up rusty toaster and with a little force crushed it causing a small frown to stain his face, with a quick pivot Izuku turns around a punches a fridge caving in the door and sending it flying twenty meters through three piles of trash and into a forth, his frown deepening.
"Speed Test hundred-meter dash" Izuku noted as he eyed out roughly a hundred meters in the sand. With a quick movement Izuku covered the hundred-meter distance in around a second, his frown deepening even more.
Wandering over to the nearby stairs Izuku collapses onto them letting out a sigh "Too slow, too weak, I guess even though I have my old skills and abilities I am still in my weak fourteen year old body that has barely worked out a day in its life so my physical abilities are weaker" looking out over the trash filled beach Izuku comes to the decision to clean up this beach as a way to help build his old muscles.
-A Week Later –
Over the past week Izuku has been clearing the trash off the beach, while not a lot has been cleaned as it has only been a week, Izuku has seem some level of growth thanks to using healing magic consistently to heal his sore muscles allowing him to work and train harder than normal.
It's now Izuku's first day of his third year of middle school, a day Izuku was not looking forward too.
Izuku left for school early today so he could hopefully avoid most of the students, it wasn't because he was afraid of them, no he knew he was stronger and they couldn't push him around, but rather because he didn't want to deal with them.
Getting to school Izuku found his classroom and sat down before anyone could notice him with the hope the Bakugo Katsuki wasn't in his class… Luck however was not on his side as fifteen minutes later Bakugo walked in.
Upon seeing Izuku, Bakugos face fell into an impressive sneer muttering as he slumped down onto his seat "Damn it gotta spend another whole year in the same class as this quirkless Deku".
In fifteen minutes, the teacher comes inro room standing at his desk "Good morning everyone I'm Mr. Sanoda, I'll be your homeroom teacher for this…" suddenly the door slams open as a familiar looking girl walks in.
"Sorry I'm late Teach" she calls out nonchalantly.
"Ah Miss Helcroft, our new student, do try to be on time would you" Mr Sanoda states with a barely hidden venom due to being interrupted.
Izuku hearing that name dropped his books and whipped his head up to look at the new girl shocking him.
'RAYA!?'.
Apologies for not getting this out sooner as I had originally planned... I wanna try for one a week... procrastination is a bitch
