The Others
Izuku was looking forward to this, well, at least a bit. It was now time for his first day at UA, Izuku made plans with Uraraka to meet up and check to see which class they got into.
Just as Izuku was about to leave the apartment his mother stopped him, "Izuku, a word before you go."
Izuku stopped and turned, "Yeah mom? What's up?"
"I-I just want you to know that I'm proud of you. I know things are pretty crazy and new to you, but do try to make some friends. I know you're talking to that girl already but make some other friends alright?" Said Inko with a worried smile on her face.
Izuku nodded, "I'll try mom, promise. I'll see you later alright. Bye, love you."
With that Izuku walked out of the apartment and boarded a train to UA. It was a good 25 minutes away from his house so he had some time to think about what his mom said. 'Make friends...how exactly do I do that? I mean, Uraraka is my friend right?'
Izuku pondered on what his mother said the whole train ride. He was now in front of UA's gates, "Well, here goes nothing…"
Walking in the first thing Izuku noticed was the amount of people. He stood still amazed by the sheer number of students. However this also posed a problem, with his heightened senses Izuku could hear and smell it all. Every voice, every drop of a pen, every conversation, and so forth.
At times things got bad that they could cause a headache but Izuku learned to drown out sounds. However he heard one sound that he remembered, "Get the hell out of my way freak!"
Turning around Izuku found Bakugo walking his direction. Izuku felt his anger growing, "Sorry princess, I'll move at once." Said Izuku in a condescending tone.
As Bakugo walked past Izuku he pushed him with his shoulder, "Animal…"
Izuku gritted his teeth, "Why you…" .
Izuku was about to pop his claws but stopped when he heard another voice. "Hey Midoriya!"
This time around Izuku found Uraraka walking over to him, "Hey, good to see you. That uniform really suits you."
Uraraka blushed slightly, "T-Thanks, you too, the uniform suits you well. It's good to see you too by the way, so did you find out what class you were in?" Asked Uraraka.
"Yeah, I'm in class 1A. What about you?" Asked Izuku, as they walked down the quad area.
Uraraka's eyes lit up, "Me too! I'm in 1A as well. Man I can't wait to get to class."
"Then let's go, I think it's down this way." The two then walked into the main building, following the signs they eventually found class 1A.
In front of them was a tall door, "Why the giant door?" Asked Izuku.
"For giant people?" Answered Uraraka.
"Hmmm, makes sense, whatever, let's go inside." Izuku opened the door to the classroom and noticed people were already inside. He saw Bakugo with his feet kicked up on the desk and the blue haired boy running over to him.
"Please remove your feet from the desk this instant!" Demanded the boy.
"Easy four eyes, I'm not hurting anyone," said Bakugo.
That's when the blue haired boy spotted Izuku and ran towards him, "You!"
Izuku stared at the boy, "Yeah?"
"Please allow me to apologise for my behavior during the entrance exam," said the boy bowing.
"Alright? Apology accepted, who are you by the way?" Asked Izuku confused.
The boy adjusted his glasses, "My name is Tenya Iida,"
"Iida, cool, my name is Izuku Midoriya and this is…" Izuku turned to Uraraka and allowed her to introduce herself.
"Ochaco Uraraka, it's nice to meet you," said Uraraka with a smile.
As they stood around something suddenly opened the door to the class and in walked a sleeping bag? "If you're just here to socialize then you can just leave now.." said a very tired looking man.
Izuku recognised him, 'I know him, he's one of the people that were there when I woke up.'
The man walked over to the podium, "The name is Aizawa, and I'll be your homeroom teacher. Alright, now that introductions are out of the way, go put on your gym uniforms and meet on the field. You have 10 minutes."
The class who were all sitting down looked at each other confused, "9 minutes" said Aizawa.
Everyone quickly went off to the locker rooms to get changed, after that they went to the field. "Good you're all here. Now, you are going to participate in a test to see if you are really worthy of being here."
"Um Mr. Aizawa? What about the orientation?" Asked Uraraka.
"We don't have time for that, a hero spends their time doing productive things. Now, Midoriya think fast…" Aizawa threw a ball at Izuku which he caught with ease. 'Good reflexes'
Aizawa pointed to a white circle,"Get inside the circle and throw it as far as you can. This way we can test your current limits."
Izuku nodded and went inside the circle. "Ha I bet he won't even get past the 50 yard mark." Said Bakugo, in a mocking voice.
Izuku heard him but chose not to say anything, instead he winedup and threw the ball as hard as he could.
Holding a small device Aizat turned to the class, "Not bad, 250 meters."
"Man this looks like fun!" Said a yellow haired boy.
"Yeah, we get to use our quirks and everything!" Said a pink skinned girl.
Aizawa smiled and as he did Izuku could smell his change in attitude. "Fun you say? Alright, whoever gets last place gets expelled."
The class gasped, "Y-You can't do that!" said Uraraka, surprised.
"I can and I will, UA gives its teachers a lot of leeway. So I suggest you try your best," said Aizawa.
The next stage would be a 50 meter dash, Izuku took his start next to a tall girl with black hair. The starting gun fired and Izuku took off, the class watched as he finished it in 3.59 seconds.
Next was the grip strength test, each student was given a device that measured their strength. One student with multiple arms got a score of 540kg. Izuku's score was over two times that amount, he came in at 2,000kg.
The next test was the standing long jump, Izuku cleared it with ease. Next was the side steps, which Izuku did 100 of them before he was told to stop.
Now it was back to the ball throw Izuku watched as his class went to throw. Bakugo used his explosions and got 705 meters. Uraraka on the other hand got an impressive, infinity score.
Izuku whistled, "Woah Uraraka, you sent that ball into space, good work."
Uraraka blushed slightly, "T-Thanks.."
The next tests were simple long distance, toe touches, and sit ups. For the sit ups Bakugo and a dual colored boy were going at it. By the time they reached 75 they stopped but Izuku kept going. "Alright Midoriya, I think you can stop now. 169 is enough, might even be a school record." Said Aizawa.
Izuku got up as sweat clinged to body, showing off his muscles. Lifting his shirt Izuku wiped the sweat off his forehead and gave the girls quite the show of his abs.
It was now time to go over the results, "Alright let's see how you all did."
Pressing a button on the device it began to display the results of the exam. Izuku was in first place, someone named Momo Yaoyorozu was second.
"First place not bad, I'm safe but…" Izuku looked down to see a small boy with purple balls on his head sulking in defeat.
"M-My dreams of becoming a hero and getting all the women are dead…" said Mineta.
However one other voice cut through everyone, "This is bullshit!" Everyone turned to find Bakugo gritting his teeth. "How did that useless loser get first place! I won't accept this! You left with no quirk and now you come back with this, tell me what happened to you DEKU!"
Bakugo then ran at Izuku, the others watched as Bakugo raised his hand ready to blast him in the face. "DIE!" Bakugo pressed his hand up against Izuku's face and...nothing happened? "What?"
Seeing a chance, Izuku went down low and grabbed Bakugo's leg and took him to the ground. Now on his back Izuku stood over Bakugo, "Why you…!" Bakugo tried to get up but stopped when he heard a SNIKT sound.
With his fist pointed to Bakugo's face, Izuku popped his claws but stopped just short of impaling him. "I thought you learned your lesson back at the hospital. Seems to me you need another lesson, so how about it. You feel like getting your ass kicked?" asked Izuku as he glared at Bakugo.
"Alright, that's enough!" Aizawa yelled out, wrapping his capture weapon around Izuku's arm. "If you don't stop it I will kick the both of you out. Do I make myself clear?"
Looking over Izuku saw Aizawa's eyes glow red as his hair spiked up, Izuku scoffed and with his free hand he swiped up and snapped Aizawa's capture weapon. "Whatever," the metal claws slowly began to retract back into Izuku's forearms.
Aizawa turned off his quirk, "Good, now let's get back to this shall we. Mineta, you better improve or else you really will be kicked out. Alright class dismissed." Aizawa then began to walk away from the class.
"Oh right the part of me kicking you out, that was all a lie," said Aizawa with a smile on his face.
"What!?" Yelled out most of the class.
Everyone but Izuku and Momo didn't yell, for they knew he was just messing around, "I mean it was obviously a ploy from the get go," said Momo.
"I should have seen this coming!" Said Iida, disappointed in himself.
"Hey Midoriya, how did you know Mr. Aizawa wasn't serious?" Asked Uraraka.
"Oh that, I could smell it. He gave off a distinct smell and when he said he would kick someone out." Said Izuku.
Uraraka was confused, "Smell? I never knew you could tell someone was lying like that. Exactly how can you smell that?"
"My senses are supercharged, I can see and smell things others can't," explained Izuku, but he could still see a look of confusion on her face. "Just think of it like another part of my quirk,"
With that everyone went to go get changed and headed to the orientation. It was a pretty boring orientation, they went over rules and regulations, the normal stuff. After that Izuku and his class went through the different classes, history, art, english, math, and science.
Some of the teachers were annoying, especially Present Mic, maybe it was because he talked too loud.
Whatever the case may be it was now the end of the school day and Izuku was walking out of the campus when he heard someone call out to him.
"Hey! Midoriya, are you heading to the train station?" Asked Uraraka, walking with Iida.
Izuku turned around, "Yeah, you guys want to walk to the station?"
"It's better if we stay together, you never know what could happen," said Iida adjusting his glasses.
Izuku nodded, "Right…"
"So anyway, why did Bakugo call you Deku?" Asked Uraraka.
"Cause he's an assh*le, that's why," said Izuku much to Iida's shock.
"Language!" Yelled out Iida.
"Really? Just looking at him I can tell he has a temper but still, can he really be that bad?" Questioned Uraraka.
"Trust me he is, but I won't let him or anyone hurt me again. I'm not a Deku anymore," said Izuku.
"Hmm but Deku kinda sounds like "you can do it", I kinda like it," said Uraraka with a smile.
As Izuku walked he noticed her smile, "Different meaning, if you look at it that way it doesn't sound too bad. Still, I don't like it."
As the three made their way to the station Aizawa knocked on the door of Nezu's office. "Come in,"
Walking in Aizawa found Nezu going over some paperwork. "Ahh Aizawa, what brings you in today?"
"It's about the boy, he was about to kill Bakugo. Or at the very least severely hurt him," Said Aizawa, Nezu stopped reading his paper.
"Yes, I thought that would be the case." Said Nezu.
"And yet you put them in the same class? Why?" Asked Aizawa.
Nezu sighed, "I want them to eventually reconcile. Tell me what happened?"
"We were doing a quirk apprehension test and when Bakugo saw the results he snapped. If I didn't use my quirk Izuku would have been blasted in the face. Not that it would have mattered, he heals but still. Eventually Izuku took down Bakugo and pointed his claws at him. The look in his eyes said it all, it was the look of a killer. Midoriya has done it before I know he has, and it's only a matter of time before he does again." Explained Aizawa.
Nezu spun around in his chair, "That is troubling, we may have to rethink our approach."
"Then maybe it's time we call in the big gun, " suggested Aizawa.
2 Days Later
The couple days of school were easy, all they did was go over the syllabus and talk about how the class will be run.
However, they were hero course students and as such, they needed to learn that as well. The class waited for the teacher to show up, "So who do you think is going to teach us hero stuff?" Asked Uraraka.
Izuku thought about it, "Hopefully someone strong."
Just then Izuku sniffed the air, 'This smell, I know it from somewhere.'
"I am...coming through the door like a normal person!" said All Might as he opened the door and striked a pose.
"Wow it's All Might! In his golden age costume." said Kirishima. The class erupted in cheer, but all Izuku did was stare at the number one hero.
"Alright settle down kids, today we have something very important to go over. You are all in the hero course for one thing, to be heroes right? So why don't we start doing that, but first you all need to look the part. So here you go," clicking a button on the desk, the wall behind All Might began to reveal suitcases with numbers on them.
"These are your hero costumes courtesy of the support department. They carefully went over the designs you've submitted and crafted these masterpieces. Now, go get changed into them and head over to ground B!" with that All Might ran out of the classroom.
The students grabbed their respected case but when Izuku grabbed his he thought of something, 'Wait a minute, I never submitted a hero costume.' Izuku looked at the case. 'So what's in here?'
As Izuku put on his hero costume, he couldn't help but noticed they used green, the same color of his hair. Izuku changed quickly and was one of the first ones out, Izuku came out sporting a skin tight green and black suit. The suit was mostly green in color but had three black streaks coming from his sides, he also had black shoulder pads, the costume stopped there and exposed his arm muscles and forearm. He also wore black gloves, and black tactical boots, and a green belt. This mask had fully white eyes pieces, large/medium sized black ears that slicked back, and was part of the main costume. (You know I had to go with the Classic Wolverine Costume, I added some aspects of the modern version and changed the colors to match Izuku's green hair and eyes.)
The rest of the class began to arrive, Izuku turned to see their costumes, 'Not bad, looks like they thought about their quirks. Momo's is a bit revealing, not that I mind. Iida's is tailored to his speed. Then there's…'
However before he could finish analyzing his classmates someone called out to him, "Midoriya? Is that you?" turning around Izuku found Uraraka walking over to him. "Wow, your costume is amazing!"
Izuku removed his mask, "Thanks," he then began to eye Uraraka. "You're wearing a spacesuit?"
Uraraka costume consisted of a skin tight bodysuit and visor that went over her face, "Y-Yeah, I think there was some kind of mistake. I didn't mean for it to be so skin tight, I probably looked weird." she said blushing slightly.
Izuku shook his head, "No, you look amazing. The suit, it really brings out your eyes." 'It also shows off her curves and I got to say...nice.'
Uraraka's blush grew, "T-Thanks,"
"Alright everyone gather up! Now I bet you are all wondering what you are all doing here. Well, today you are going to be participating in Battle Trials! You see the building behind me? That will be your battle stage, inside there is a bomb. You all will be split into teams of two, then you will split up into two teams. One will be heroes and the other will be villains. The heroes will win by touching the bomb or capturing the villains. The villains win by stopping the heroes or by letting the time run out, 30 minutes. So those are the rules, let's move onto the teams." All Might then brought out a lottery bowl.
Reaching in All Might began to make the teams, Izuku was paired up with Uraraka, or team A. "Alright, now let's pick out the heroes and villains."
Reaching in both boxes, All Might pulled out Team D for the heroes and Team A for the villains. Izuku's eyes widened, he then looked over to Bakugo who was glaring at him. "Oh this should be fun." said Izuku with a smile on his face.
Both teams were given 10 minutes to prepare, Izuku and Uraraka walked into the building. On the fifth floor they found the bomb, "So Midoriya, got any plans?" Asked Uraraka as they stood next to the bomb.
Izuku thought about it, "Maybe, how long can you use your quirk?"
"Depends on the weight, the heavier something is the less time." Explained Uraraka.
Nodding Izuku turned to one of the building's pillars and with a SNIKT he began to slash the pillar into pieces. "Use that and float them over the entrance."
Uraraka quickly did it and set a trap, "Do you think will would work?"
"Probably not, but it should slow them down a bit. I will go on attack, you should stay here and protect the bomb. I'm not diminishing your capabilities, quite the opposite actually. Since you can make things float, I was thinking you could take the bomb somewhere else." explained Izuku.
"Oh! That's actually a really good idea. Alright, if they get past you I'll move the bomb to the roof." said Uraraka, setting up the traps.
"Also, Bakugo will be coming straight for me." said Izuku.
"How can you be so sure?" asked Uraraka.
Izuku pulled his mask back on, "Call it a lucky guess."
Just then All Might's voice was heard over the loudspeaker, "And your ten minutes are up. You all know the rules, but if I see anything that will jeopardize your wellbeing I will stop the match. Your 30 minutes start, now!" with a loud buzzer the exam started.
"Uraraka? We are playing villains right?" asked Izuku.
She nodded, "Yeah,"
Izuku grinned, "Good, then let's be some villains."
With that Izuku walked out of the room, Uraraka felt a shiver run down her spine as Izuku left. "W-Woah, I better do my part."
Observation Room
All Might and the rest of class 1A all gathered in front of a giant monitor that displayed the images of inside the building. "So who do you think is going to win?" asked Kamanari.
"It's hard to say, but I think Bakugo's got this," said Kirishima.
All Might laughed, "Do not count the others out just yet young man. First rule of being a hero is that anything is possible. That means even the underdogs have a chance at winning!"
Turning his attention to the screen, All Might narrowed his eyes at Izuku, 'This is the perfect chance to see what Midoriya can really do. But I need to be careful, one slip up could mean one of the others dies. If the reports on him are to be believed he has more training than most of the teachers here.'
With Bakugo and Iida
Iida tried to talk strategy but Bakugo wouldn't have it, he was going in guns blazing. "Come on Bakugo, we should really think of a plan." said Iida following him inside.
"Shut it four eyes! The girl is no problem, and Deku is useless. We don't need a plan for those weaklings." said Bakugo making his way up the stairs.
Now on the third floor, the two saw the floor had twists and turns. The walls were made out of pure cement and the whole place was poorly lit. "Stay here, I'll go scout ahead," said Iida taking off around the corner.
Bakugo grunted but walked toward the corner when all of a sudden he heard the sound of metal being slashed, following a scream. "Hey four eyes, you alright?" asked Bakugo. "Did you trip on something?"
As Bakugo turned the corner something came flying at Bakugo, his eyes widened but he managed to dodge. The object hit the wall behind him, turning around Bakugo saw that it was Iida's helmet with three slash marks going across the face.
Bakugo turned back to the long hallway, "Come on out Deku, I know you're there," he said, explosions at the ready.
Slowly making his way down Bakugo felt very uneasy, he could barely see anything in front of him. That's when he heard something in front of him, thinking it was Izuku he reached out and fired a blast. However nothing was there, Bakugo gritted his teeth, "Show yourself DEKU!"
"You know, back at the hospital I didn't really give you a fair shot." said Izuku, his voice bouncing off the walls.
Bakugo looked around but couldn't find him, "...Let's start our rematch shall we?"
With his back against the wall Bakugo pointed his hand to either side ready for when Izuku would show up. However he wouldn't come from either way, suddenly a fist came crashing through the cement wall just beside Bakugo's face.
Looking over he then saw the hand grab his face and pull him through the wall. Bakugo's body was flung into a room, with dust all over his face he got up more pissed off. The outside light illuminated the room, "Damn it DEKU! Fight like a man!"
"Face to face, right?" said Izuku, walking through the hole in the wall.
"There you are!" said Bakugo glaring at Izuku.
Izuku cracked his neck, "Let's go then," just then the metal claws began to slowly appear from his knuckles. The light bounced off them, this was it Izuku was going to show Bakugo why he shouldn't mess with him ever again.
Crossing his claws in front of him Izuku looked at Bakugo through them and let out a growl as he ran at him.
Chapter 5: Fight Me!
Fight Me!
Bakugo's eyes widened as he saw Izuku run towards him, raising his hand Bakugo fired an explosion that connected. However from the smoke Izuku appeared claws at the ready.
"F*ck…" said Bakugo as he used his explosions to fall back. As he did Izuku's claws stabbed into the ground.
Looking up Izuku pulled his claws free, "Why are you running Bakugo? Are you perhaps scared?"
Bakugo's eye twitched, "Me, afraid of you? Never, it's you that should be afraid of me!"
Using his explosions Bakugo rocketed towards Izuku. Izuku swung his claws but Bakugo dodged, now behind him Bakugo fired a blast that hit Izuku in the back.
The explosion managed to burn Izuku's costume, stumbling forward, Izuku turned around and swung again.
This time he managed to cut at Bakugo's costume. The two fighters jumped back, "You're a nimble one aren't you." Said Izuku. "Is dodging the best you can do? I'm disappointed, now let me show you what I can do."
Izuku charged at Bakugo head on, raising his hands Bakugo fired off multiple explosions that hit Izuku.
From the smoke Izuku jumped up with his costume partly burned off. Slashing down, Izuku managed to disarm one of Bakugo's gauntlets. Izuku then grabbed that arm.
"You bastard!" Raising his other hand Bakugo fired a blast right in Izuku's face.
The explosion ripped through the air, as the smoke cleared Bakugo was shocked to see Izuku still standing. He was even more shocked to see Izuku with blood running down his ears and his face severely burned. Izuku's face twitched from the pain, taking a deep breath he began to heal. After a second Izuku healed completely.
Seeing that he was still close Izuku leaned his back and delivered a powerful headbutt. Izuku's metal skull slammed into Bakugo's nose, completely shattering it. "Those explosions really do hurt Bakugo, they even give me concussions. But like all things, I heal, so everything you do is meaningless."
Bakugo yelled out in pain as Izuku let him go, "My fucken nose! I'll kill you for this!" Bakugo yelled out, as blood poured down his now deformed nose.
Izuku smirked, Bakugo saw this and it infuriated him. "How dare you look down on me! I'll show you! I'll show you!"
Gaining distance Bakugo raised the gauntlet and grabbed a pin that was attached to it. "You probably already know this, but these gauntlets aren't just for show. I had them custom made to hold my sweat. Think about it, so much nitroglycerin concentrated into one area. What do you think the results will be?"
Izuku's eyes widened, "You wouldn't dare."
Bakugo smirked, "Try me…" Izuku narrowed his eyes and took a step forward.
All Might who was in the observation room saw this, "Young Bakugo don't! If you fire off an explosion like that he'll die!"
Bakugo simply smiled, "That's the idea!"
All Might and the class watched on in horror as Bakugo pulled the pin. Just then a massive explosion was released, shattering every window in the building.
Izuku's eyes widened as the explosion got close, he tried to jump out of the way but it was too late.
The explosion managed to knock Izuku into a wall, and burn his entire right side. "NOOOOO!" Yelled out All Might from the intercom.
Izuku fell to his knees, his right side was turned away from the camera but as the camera turned the class all gasped. Now facing the camera Izuku was seen with his arm with third degree burns. Black burned skin was seen through his entire right side.
His arm looked like it was shriveled up and put into a fire pit. Izuku grabbed at his arm, "This exercise is over! Someone call Recovery…" however before he could finish one of the students yelled out.
"Sir! Look!" Said Kamanari, pointing at the screen.
All Might looked back at the screen, "My god…"
Everyone was shocked to see Izuku stand up, but what shocked them even more was the fact that he was healing.
His disfigured arm began to regrow his cells rapidly. However this meant Izuku could feel it all, he could feel the layers of skin, muscle, and nerves grow back. Groaning in pain Izuku began to stand up, grabbing the wall he broke off a piece of it as he tried to stay up right.
After 30 seconds Izuku now had a fully healed arm. Flexing it Izuku tested it out, he then looked at Bakugo. "That hurt…"
Bakugo blinked but in that split second Izuku disappeared, "What the!?"
The next thing Bakugo felt was something digging into his shoulder. Looking down he saw Izuku's claws sticking out from his shoulder, blood dripped from the claws as Izuku pulled them free.
Bakugo screamed out in pain, however before he could do anything else Izuku grabbed Bakugo by the face and began to push him towards a wall. Slamming Bakugo into the wall Izuku looked up, "You won't hurt me again!"
"Y-YOU! I will kill you!" Bakugo yelled out, muffled by Izuku's hand over his face.
Raising his hands, Bakugo fired a blast to get Izuku off of him, sticking his claws into the ground, Izuku slid to a stop. He watched as Bakugo placed a hand over the three puncture wounds, "Why don't you put those claws away and show me what you can do without them." said Bakugo.
Izuku thought about it, and then smiled, "Now why would I do that? Are you scared that I might beat you? Or maybe you'll find out that you aren't as great as you think you are."
Bakugo's eye twitched, Izuku smiled, "Looks like I'm right, that fragile ego of yours is going to get yourself killed one day."
Just then All Might's voice was heard through the coms, "Bakugo! Another blast like that and you forfeit the match! Do I make myself clear!? You too Midoriya, use those claws to seriously hurt him and I'm calling this exercise off."
"It's fine All Might!" yelled out Izuku. "I can take anything he can throw at me. Him on the other hand, well that's another story."
All Might was stunned, 'Is this kid crazy! As a teacher I have an obligation to stop this, but, I can't help wanting to see how this ends!'
Izuku motioned to Bakugo, "Come on Bakugo, we don't have all day."
With explosions rippling in his hands as Bakugo rushed Izuku, "DIE!"
Using his explosions Bakugo began to bombard Izuku, flipping over him Bakugo fired blast after blast. The top part of Izuku's costume was now completely gone thanks to the explosions.
But all the while Izuku just stood there, motionless, "Come on fight back!" Yelled out Bakugo as he hit Izuku in the face with an explosion.
Smoke filled the room they were in, "Fine.." a voice said through the smoke.
Just then Izuku's fist appeared, with retracted claws he hit Bakugo in the stomach. Immediately Bakugo spit out blood as he fell to his knees, "That's something else you failed to understand Bakugo. My claws aren't the only thing that are made of metal. My entire skeletal system is chromed. That means my knuckles as well."
Izuku then kneed Bakugo under the chin, breaking his jaw in the process. Bakugo was sent towards the wall, hitting it he looked up as blood ran down his lip. "I-I'll kill... you…"
Reaching down, Izuku then grabbed Bakugo by his costume and lifted him off the ground. "Get stronger and maybe you'll stand a chance. Cause right now, you are nothing."
Standing him up straight Izuku then began to punch Bakugo over and over. He was hitting him so hard that ribs were breaking by the sheer impact. Bakugo's blood splattered across the wall and spilled onto the floor as Izuku continued to punch Bakugo, over and over again. "After all of those years! You finally get to feel what I felt! Every explosion, every burn mark you left on my body, every damn day!"
The class watched in horror, "S-Sir, aren't you going to stop this!?" asked Kirishima. "He's going to kill Bakugo if he doesn't stop."
All Might knew that, he reached for the mic to end the match but just as Izuku was going to punch Bakugo one last time. Someone touched Izuku on the back, causing him to float.
Izuku growled as he looked down, that's when he noticed it was Uraraka. "Midoriya! That's enough, he's beaten, no longer a threat."
"Put me down Uraraka, you don't know what he did to me. He has to pay!" Said Izuku on the ceiling.
Uraraka was stunned, "Yeah, I don't know what he did to you, but look at him!" Izuku turned to see Bakugo sitting on the floor, with his back against the wall a bruised and bloody mess. His face was swollen and his cuts bleed with every breath he took.
"This was meant to be an exercise. You're acting like an animal," said Uraraka.
Izuku looked down at his hands, they were covered in blood. Just then Izuku's mind went blank, and then he remembered something. Images of his hands were seen playing in his mind, then he saw something red on the floor. Looking down Izuku noticed it was blood, then he saw it, a body laying on the floor motionless and right beside it a combat knife. "J-Just, just put me down."
Uraraka touched her finger tips together and let Izuku down. Landing on his feet he turned around, "The match is over, villains win!" Said All Might.
Bakugo could barely hear the announcement as he faded in and out of consciousness, "N-Not yet…" he said reaching out his hand.
Thanks to his hazy eyesight Bakugo couldn't see Uraraka was the one standing in front of him. He thought that it was Izuku, looking down he saw the other gauntlet that he lost during the fight.
Reaching over he put it on and began to raise his hand. With a shaky hand he pulled the pin, Izuku heard this and turned around.
His eyes widened as he saw Bakugo point the gauntlet at Uraraka. "No!" He yelled out rushing to Uraraka.
Just as Izuku reached her, Bakugo fired and caused another massive explosion that destroyed the floor they were on.
Without thinking Izuku covered Uraraka shielding her, the blast hit Izuku's back. The two were then violently thrown out of the building.
The explosion was enough to send them towards the building across the street. Izuku, seeing that Uraraka would smash into the building, quickly twisted his body and took the hit for her.
With a loud thunk, Izuku hit his head on the wall so hard that he broke it. The two then fell to the floor, Uraraka was knocked out as a result of the explosion. Izuku was as well but after a few seconds he stood back up.
Looking around Izuku noticed that there was a lot of debris from the building. "Uraraka! Uraraka! Where are you!?"
Just then Izuku saw a hand sticking out from underneath the rubble. Going over he picked up the pieces of the cement wall and tossed them aside, that's when he found her.
Cuts and bruises were seen all over Uraraka's body, as she laid there unconscious. "I'm so sorry, this is all my fault…" said Izuku as he picked her up.
He then turned to leave but that's when the medical bots arrived. Seeing that they were there to help, Izuku placed Uraraka on a stretcher. The bots quickly took Uraraka away, that's when All Might showed up.
All Might's eyes widened when he saw Izuku, "Uhhh, Midoriya, are you alright?"
Izuku was confused, that's when he noticed one of the medic bots was trying to get him on a stretcher as well. "What do you want?" he asked it. The bot began to poke at Izuku, looking down Izuku saw that he had a piece of rebar going through his abdomen.
"Huh, when did I get that?" Izuku thought nothing of it, reaching down he grabbed the rebar and pulled it out. The piece of rebar hit the floor, All Might was about to say something but before he could the wound on Izuku's abdomen healed completely.
All Might blinked twice, "Right, I forget you could heal. Come on Midoriya, we still need to go over how you did."
Izuku nodded and followed the number one hero in complete silence. Now in the observation room Izuku was the only one out of the four that took part in the exercise still standing. Bakugo was severely injured and Iida was found with three claw marks across his face and knocked out.
The class were all distant towards Izuku, but he didn't care. He just wanted all this to be over with, "Well, that was more thrilling that I thought it was going to be! So can anyone tell me, who takes the MVP award?"
Just then a girl with long black hair raised her hand, "Yes, Yaoyorozu!"
"The MVP should go to Midoriya." Said Momo, much to Izuku's surprise.
"Hahaha! You are correct, but do you know why?" Asked All Might.
"Yes, while his methods were, are...cruel to say the least. They were methods that any villain could use against us. With his strength and regenerative capabilities proved that we should expect the unexpected." Explained Momo.
All Might was surprised, "T-That's exactly right! Well done Yaoyorozu. Now remember, this world is filled with weird and powerful quirks. So we can't assume someone's power based on looks. Let this be a lesson to all of you. Now let's continue with the rest of the exercise shall we?"
Izuku stood off by himself for the remainder of the class, occasionally he would look up at the screen to see what type of quirks his classmates had but that was about it. It was now the end of the class and All Might stood in front of the students.
"Well that was a successful first battle trial, you all did amazing! So keep up the good work and I'm sure you will all become great heroes! With that, go get changed and head back to class!" With that All Might took off, leaving the class behind. However as he turned the corner All Might deflated in a puff of smoke and became really skinny.
"M-Man, that was risky. I was barely able to teach that class," said All Might, coughing out blood.
Izuku sniffed the air and smelled smoke but chose to ignore it. After going to get changed Izuku went back to class there and found Uraraka already out of the nurses office. Not saying anything to anyone, Izuku went to his desk and put his head down. The day went on as usually but no one talked to Izuku, not even Uraraka.
The final bell rang and everyone got up to leave, but as Izuku was grabbing his stuff, someone stopped in front of his desk. Looking up Izuku found Uraraka, "Can I talk to you for a bit?" she asked much to the surprise of the class.
Izuku nodded, "Yeah," the two got their stuff and began to walk out of class. They went to the quad area, and stood under a tree. Izuku leaned up against the tree, "Look, if this is about what happened during the battle trial…"
However before Izuku could finish, Uraraka bowed, "Thank you and I'm sorry!"
This surprised Izuku, who pushed off the tree, "Huh? Why are you thanking me but also apologizing?" asked Izuku.
"The girls told me that when Bakugo fired off another blast you shielded me from it. If you didn't do that I would have gotten hurt. And I'm apologizing for calling you an animal, that was stupid of me." Uraraka said, still bowing.
Izuku blinked a few times, he then sighed, "Look, it's me that should be apologizing to you, and Bakugo, but I'll get to him later. I went overboard, and I was mad, if you didn't stop me when you did I might have gone too far. So thank you."
Uraraka looked up at Izuku, she could tell he was genuinely sorry, "Well I guess we both stand to gain something from this experience don't we? Alright, just don't do it again. Or next time I might have to step in and take you down myself."
Izuku smiled, "Well then, I better watch what I do from now on." Uraraka giggled.
"I'm glad to hear that Midoriya, maybe you can tell us how you plan to change yourself, at principal Nezu's office." said Aizawa walking towards the two.
Izuku lost his smile, "Yeah, I thought that would be the case." he then turned to Uraraka. "I'll see you tomorrow?"
Uraraka nodded, "You bet. Bye make sure to text me when you get out."
Izuku waved goodbye, "So, what's going on between you two?" asked Aizawa, with a smirk on his face.
Izuku scoffed, "Nothing, don't worry about it. Anyway, let's get this over with."
The two then walked to Nezu's office, opening the door Izuku found Nezu sitting behind his desk. "Ah Midoriya, glad you could make it."
"Did I even have a choice?" asked Izuku, taking a seat across from him.
"No, but honestly if you wanted we wouldn't be able to stop you from leaving." said Nezu. "Would you like some tea?"
"Sure?" Izuku watched as Nezu reached over and poured him a cup of tea.
"Here you are," Nezu pushed the cup across the desk for Izuku to take.
Izuku grabbed it and smelled it, 'This smells funny…' he looked up to Nezu to see him smiling. "So why did you call me in for? I assume you found out what I did during class? What are you going to do, suspend me? Expel me?"
"Oh no, nothing like that," said Nezu.
This surprised Izuku, "Really? I just beat a fellow student half to death and you are just letting me go? How is he by the way?"
"Well, not exactly. We won't expel you or anything like that but you clearly have some things you need to work through. I know you are still trying to figure out who you are, so that's why I want you to talk to a counselor. As to how Bakugo is doing, Recovery Girl healed him, but he still needs to rest up. He should join class tomorrow." Said Nezu.
Izuku sat back on his chair, "Look, I'm grateful for everything that you've done for me, really I am. You want me to behave, fine, I'll tone it down. But I'm not seeing any counselors, I don't need it. Why would I want to sit down with someone just to tell me what I already know?"
Nezu then reached into his drawer and pulled out a tablet, "This is the video from the exercise today." The video of Izuku beating on Bakugo began play.
After a minute Nezu paused the video, "Tell me, what do you see here?"
Izuku leaned in and saw himself, "Me, of course."
"Look closer, look at your face." Izuku narrowed his eyes on his face. The still image of Izuku looking at his hands in horror was paused on the tablet. "You remembered something didn't you?"
Izuku looked away, "Tell me Midoriya, what did you remember?"
That's when Aizawa walked up behind Izuku and placed his hand on Izuku's shoulder, "Nothing you say leaves this room Midoriya. Judging by the look on your face you remembered something horrible."
"Blood, I remembered blood. I was in a room with blood all over the floor. There was a knife beside me and..and a body. I-I think I killed before, but not just once." Izuku looked down at his hands.
Nezu and Aizawa looked at each other, "Is that the only thing you remember?" Asked Aizawa.
"For now yeah." Izuku turned to Aizawa. "You were there when I was found right? I want to read the police report, I want to know what they did to me."
"I don't think that's a good idea Midoriya," said Nezu.
"Why not? I have a right to know, if I ever want a chance to find out who I am, I need to see those files." Said Izuku.
Nezu sighed, "We can't just hand them over to you, tell you what. Go to a counselor and I'll see what I can do."
Izuku shook his head, "Not good enough, I need guarantee that you won't just fool me later."
Nezu smiled, "Smart man, but you are in no position to negotiate for this. Remember you did beat a student half to death. As I said before we won't expel you or suspend you, but you will now be under heavy surveillance. Another outburst in anger and I will take action, do I make myself clear?"
Izuku got up, "Fine, I'll be leaving now. For someone so small you sure do give out a fierce aura." Izuku was about to walk out of the door when he stopped.
"Oh by the way, that tea doesn't have any flavor anymore. You might want to get a new batch." Izuku said as he walked out of the door.
Aizawa walked over to Nezu, "He's hurting,"
"I know, he reminds me of a certain underground hero I once knew." Said Nezu.
Aizawa groaned, "I'll keep looking after him, but if he displays another burst of anger like he did today. I'm not sure I would be able to stop him. I went over the footage, he was purposely avoiding hitting anything vital with his claws. He was basically toying with Bakugo the entire time, just to prove a point. If Midoriya really wanted to he could have killed Bakugo 10 times over."
"That is why he must never learn what they made him to be. If he remembers that then there's no telling what it might do to him." Said Nezu replaying the video of Izuku.
"Midoriya for sure can be either one of two things. A great hero, or a great villain. And I for one wouldn't want to fight him." Said Aizawa looking out the window. "We have the exercise at the USJ next week on Monday, I request that All Might be there. In case something does happen, he could deal with Midoriya."
Nezu nodded, "I agree, this will also be a great opportunity to find out if he has what it takes to be a hero or not."
"One more thing Nezu, what are we going to do about Bakugo?" Asked Aizawa. "Midoriya has anger issues but Bakugo does as well. And considering his record, I don't think he has what it takes."
"Right, the quirkless hater. What he did in middle school and elementary is concerning and will not be tolerated here. However, I do believe he could change, whether that be with words. Or as Izuku demonstrated, with action. Bakugo may think twice now before he calls someone by derogatory names." Said Nezu.
With Izuku
Izuku walked down the now empty halls of UA, "I need to know what exactly they did to me. But most importantly, who did this to me."
With Bakugo
Bakugo woke up hours later in the nurse's office, it was now an hour past since school let out. "Ah, good to see you awake son," said Recovery Girl.
"W-Where am I?" Asked Bakugo as he tried to sit up. Just then a sharp pain resonated from his ribs, forcing him back down.
"Easy there, your wounds aren't fully healed. I did what I could but the damage was extensive." Explained Recovery Girl. "But don't worry, one more kiss and you will be good as new. I was just waiting for you to wake up."
Recovery Girl then leaned in and kissed Bakugo, instantly he felt much better. "There you are, good as new. Now take it easy for the rest of the day, my quirk uses the body's natural healing process. So you may feel tired."
Bakugo said nothing as he got up and changed, after leaving he exited the building. "That damn Deku! He humiliated me! I will make him suffer for this, even if it's the last thing I do!"
Unknown Location
The doctor and his assistant were hard at work making something that could kill Izuku. And after weeks of planning and forging they were close. "Doctor, how goes your research?" Asked a voice coming from the monitor.
The doctor jumped by the sudden voice, "Ahh, Master, we are nearly done. All we need to do now is make them."
"Good, good, so what is it that you are building, doctor?" Asked the voice.
"With the limited amount of adamantium you gave us, we were able to forge them into these." Said the doctor holding blueprints.
"I see, using it against him, how clever doctor. And you are sure this would work?" Asked the voice.
The doctor nodded, "Without question, and the best part is, you'll have more than one opportunity to kill him."
Putting down the blueprints the image of a hollow point bullet was seen drawn on it.
"Good, have it ready by Monday. I need it for something I have planned." Said the voice.
The doctor nodded as the voice disappeared, just then the assistant walked up to the doctor. "How sure are you that it will work?"
"About 50 percent sure, but that doesn't matter now. I'm banking on our other experiment to work, how is it going by the way?" asked the doctor.
"There is progress, but things are getting complicated." said the assistant.
"That is to be expected, tell our associates to continue their work." The assistant nodded and went away.
Chapter 6: Get Ready!
Get Ready!
Izuku was laying in bed, it was about 3 am when he began to thrash around. "N-No, I don't want this." He kept saying over and over.
Izuku was having a dream, no, rather a nightmare. Every night he had the same dream, he stood over adult men, with his claws dripping with blood.
Then came the pain, he was getting flashbacks to when the doctor would experiment on him. He could feel every cut, burn, and bruise the doctor ever performed on him.
Waking up in a cold sweat Izuku's breathing was heavy. He looked down at his hand to see that he had popped his claws without wanting to.
He quickly retracted them and got out of bed, "What am I? He asked himself as he looked up to the night sky.
It was now 7 am and Izuku hadn't slept since he woken up from his nightmare. He took a shower and went about his normal routine.
Now at school Izuku was surprised to see several people standing outside the main gate. "What the hell is this?"
Just then several people turned to Izuku and began pushing mics into his face. "Can you tell us if the rumors are true, that All Might is teaching here at UA?" "What about rumors that he's here looking for something?"
All the questions began to overwhelm Izuku, "Shut UP!" He yelled out, and with a Snikt, he popped his claws and destroyed one of the mics the reporter had.
The crowd fell silent, "Move, if you really want to find out, make an appointment and stop wasting my time. Now if you'd excuse me, I have class to get too."
Walking into the school Izuku was startled when a large metal wall slammed behind him. "That mouse takes security seriously," said Izuku as he turned to the main building.
However as he did that, he smelled something in the air. Turning around he saw nothing but the steel wall, "One of those guys smells rotten."
Izuku shrugged it off and went to class. Now in homeroom, Aizawa had an announcement, "Alright everyone, a few things before we start. I saw the tapes of the exercise yesterday and most of you did good work. That being said, Midoriya, you are too over reliant on your quirk and are quick to anger. You have to take control or else you'll make stupid decisions. That goes for you too Bakugo, you knowingly fired an explosion after the exercise was over. If it were up to me, you'd be expelled but it's not up to me, so consider yourself lucky. You won't get another chance."
Izuku looked at his desk and thought back to when it happened. 'I know it was wrong, but why was it so easy? I almost killed him and I felt nothing in that moment. Why?'
"Now that that's out of the way, as many of you know the media got wind of All Might teaching here and are swarming the campus. They can't get in so that's a plus, however, I would ask all of you to refrain from making any threats to them as well." Aizawa looked over at Izuku.
Izuku narrowed his eyes, "Although that's not the only thing you should be worried about." The class was worried, this sounded serious.
"You have to pick the class president." The class erupted in cheer.
"I want to do it!" "No, I want to do it!" "Screw you extras, I'm the logical choice!" Everyone in the class wanted to be president, well everyone except Izuku.
Aizawa then activated his quirk and silenced the class. "I don't care how you pick, just pick before homeroom ends." Said Aizawa going into his sleeping bag.
That's when Momo raised her hand, "We should vote on it, it's the logical choice."
The class agreed, "Alright everyone, I'll pass out slips of paper and write down who you want to be class president." Said Iida.
The class did just that, Izuku voted for Momo, since she was the most level headed of the bunch.
As the final results came out Izuku couldn't believe what he was seeing, "Alright, it's official, with 6 votes Midoriya is your president. And with 4 votes, Momo is your vice president," said Aizawa.
The pair then walked to the front, "How the heck did I get voted for? Especially after what happened during the battle trials, I thought you guys hated me."
Mina shook her head, "Hated no, afraid? Maybe just a bit, but we all saw what you did for Uraraka. You protected her with your own body, that takes guts."
"That's right, besides your role was that of a villain, so it makes sense for you to let loose a bit. " Said Kirishima.
Izuku looked over at Uraraka who nodded, agreeing with the rest of the class. Izuku sighed, "Well alright then, seems like I'm the class president now."
Just then the lunch bell rang, signaling the start of lunch. Izuku joined up with Iida and Uraraka, as they were walking Iida congratulated Izuku. "Congrats on winning Midoriya, I sure hope you become a fine class president."
Izuku nodded, "Thanks Iida, but to tell you the truth I didn't really want this spot. I just kinda got thrown into it."
"Regardless, I think you'll be a great class president Midoriya!" Said Uraraka with a smile.
"So Midoriya I have to ask, why do you want to become a hero?" Asked Iida.
Izuku's eyes widened, "T-That's a difficult question to answer. To be honest it's like the class president thing, I just kinda got thrown into it. Something happened that caused me to lose some of my memories so I'm still trying to piece things out. If I had to guess it's to make sure I don't become something I don't want to be."
"I see, so that's your motivation. And I'm sorry about your memory, I do hope they come back soon!" said Iida grabbing a plate of food.
"What about you Uraraka? Why do you want to be a hero?" Asked Izuku also grabbing a plate.
The trio went to sit down, "For the money."
"The money?" Asked Izuku and Iida, surprised by this.
"Don't get me wrong I still want to help people and all that. But my parents are not in the best spot financially, they run a construction business and things have been slow. I want to be a hero and sign with a top agency so I can give back to my parents." Uraraka said, taking a bite of her food.
Iida nodded, "A noble cause! Wouldn't you agree Midoriya?"
"Yeah, nothing wrong with making some money while helping people. Still better than my reason for being here," Said Izuku.
Just then alarms began to blare out in the cafeteria, Izuku, Iida, and Uraraka all stood up. "What's going on!?" asked Uraraka. That's when the stampede of students all came rushing towards the exits, threatening to trample over them.
Izuku looked around but then he smelled something, 'This smell, it's the same as this morning.' He then turned his attention outside, that's when he saw the reporters from the morning making their way inside.
"It's the reporters from this morning!" Izuku said as he was being pushed by a wave of students.
"We need to stop everyone from panicking, but how?" asked Iida.
That's when Izuku saw Uraraka was hit hard from behind by someone, reaching over he caught her before she tripped. With an arm around her Izuku helped her up, "T-Thanks for that Midoriya." she said blushing slightly.
"Don't mention it, someone is going to get hurt if this keeps up. We need to do something." said Izuku, that's when he got an idea. "Uraraka, think you can make me float?"
Uraraka looked at him confused, "Yeah, but why?"
"Trust me, I got an idea. When you see me pop my claws cover your ears." Uraraka nodded and touched Izuku on the chest causing him to float up.
As he floated towards the roof he popped his claws and stuck them into the ceiling. He then began to monkey bar his way towards the exit. Looking down he saw that Iida and Uraraka were covering their ears. "Perfect," Izuku then took out both of his claws and floated on the ceiling.
Retracting the left and right claws, and leaving only the middle one he smashed them together causing a loud metal on metal sound to vibrate throughout the cafeteria. Everyone stopped and looked up to Izuku, "Will you all just relax!" he yelled out, making sure that everyone could hear him.
"I thought this was the best school in all of Japan? Guess I was wrong, you reflect the school and look at you, scared of some loud sounds and lights. In case you haven't noticed, it's the media from this morning. So I suggest we all go back to enjoying our lunch before someone gets hurt." said Izuku looking down at the students.
The students all began to whisper and talk amongst themselves before ultimately going back to their seats. Izuku sighed, "Uraraka, you mind putting me down now?"
Uraraka nodded, "You got it!" She then touched her finger tips together and let Izuku down.
Landing on his feet Izuku walked over to Iida and Uraraka, "Now then, shall we go back to our food?"
The trio then sat down, "I'm impressed Midoriya, you handled that situation well." said Iida.
"It's not a problem, I'm more concerned about how they got in here in the first place. The gate should have stopped them." said Izuku with a bit of worry.
"That's right, only people with special ID's can get through the gate. I wonder what happened?" asked Iida as they went back to their food.
After lunch was over the trio went back to class but as they were about to enter the room Momo stopped Izuku, "Midoriya, a word please."
Iida and Uraraka turned to Izuku, who were just as surprised to see her speak to him. "Sure…" Izuku then turned to them, "Go on in guys, I'll be there in a few."
The two then walked into the room but as she walked in Uraraka glanced back at Momo. "So what's up, no offence but you don't strike me as the type to start up a conversation out of the blue."
"I just wanted to say awesome work taking control of the situation. It showed your leadership skills, although that sound you made was kind of loud." said Momo.
Izuku raised an eyebrow, "Thanks? You pulled me aside to tell me this?"
Momo nodded, "That, and to tell you that I've taken an interest in you Midoriya."
Izuku's eyes went wide, "Interested how?"
Momo walked up to him and got close to his face, "I'll leave that to your imagination." She then walked into class without saying another word.
'That was...weird…' Izuku didn't give it another thought, the rest of the class was filler. Apparently they were going to do some special training today but it got pushed back to Wednesday thanks to the break in.
After school Nezu and the other teachers were going over the event's of the day. "So any ideas on how the gate was disintegrated?" Asked Nezu.
"Whoever it was, they have a powerful quirk. The door was reinforced and they turned it to dust." Said Power Loader.
"Anything on the cameras?" Asked Aizawa.
"There is this guy…" Nezu pressed a button on the table and the image of a tall man with a gray hoodie was seen on the screen behind him.
"Someone with such a powerful quirk, it's a shame they turned to a life of crime." Said Aizawa.
"Regardless, this was clearly an attack meant to test us. I believe they will strike again, and this time with much more clear intentions." Explained Nezu.
Wednesday
It was now the day the class was meant to participate in a special course, and just like monday Izuku had the same nightmare. But he dragged himself out of bed and went to school, now in homeroom Aizawa stood at the podium, "Alright class, today you will be going to an off campus facility called the USJ. This place is specialized for rescue missions, you will all be tested on how well you do under different situations." explained Aizawa.
The class cheered, "That sounds awesome!" said Krishima.
"Everyone relax!" yelled out Aizawa. "Thanks to monday's incident we are increasing the number of teachers going with you. Myself and All Might are going, we will also be accompanied by one more hero, you'll find out who it is when we get there. Now go get changed into your hero costumes and get on the bus, you have 10 minutes."
The class quickly went to change, thanks to his fight with Bakugo, Izuku's costume was damaged and needed repair. However thanks to a student they were able to repair it just in time.
Izuku along with the class went outside where they found a bus waiting for them. "Alright everyone, the bus seems large enough so pick whatever seat you like." Said Momo, addressing the class.
Now on the bus Izuku decided to take a quick nap to catch up on the sleep that he missed thanks to the nightmare.
But even now he was still seeing images play in his mind. This time was different, this image was of him in a test tube, he could see nothing but murky green water. Followed by the sound of drills, then came the pain.
Izuku then suddenly snapped his eyes open and popped his claws. The class were talking to themselves when this happened and fell silent.
Izuku looked around, his eyes were wide and his breathing heavy. He saw his classmates all look at him, he then looked down to see his claws. He took a deep breath and retracted his claws. "You alright Midoriya?" Asked Uraraka.
Izuku nodded, "Yeah I'm good, just a nightmare. So what were you guys talking about?"
"Oh we were talking about our quirks, Ribbit." Said Tsu.
"Yeah, we all have some amazing quirks. Although I don't like mine, it's not as flashy as the others," said Kirishima, activating his hardening quirk.
"You serious? Asked Izuku. "If I had to say I think your quirk Kirishima, is one of the better ones. You can use it as an offensive and defensive weapon." Explained Izuku.
"You really think so? I haven't thought of it like that. Thanks man!" Said Kirishima with a smile.
"So what about you Midoriya? What's your quirk?" Asked Mina.
Izuku raised his fist and with a SNIKT he popped his claws. "Quirks to be precise, I have these metal claws, and as all of you saw during the exercise the other day…"
Izuku then moved his other arm and with his claws he sliced his forearm straight down. Blood began to drop down his arm, much to his classmates' horror. "Midoriya!" Yelled out Uraraka concerned.
Izuku shook his head, "It's fine, see." Wiping the blood away Izuku showed that the wound was gone. "I also have super regeneration, along with enhanced strength, speed, reflexes, and senses. I can smell things from really far away and see pretty much in pitch black. Although, there is something I can't see very well."
"Oh and what might that be?" Asked Momo.
Izuku then pointed to Hagakure, "I know she's invisible, but I can still see an outline of her."
Hagakure's eyes widened, "Really!?"
Izuku nodded, "Yeah, but don't worry it's not a full picture so I'm not seeing much."
Hagakure sighed, "Oh thank goodness, I thought you saw me naked for a second."
"Wait so how good is your sense of smell then?" Asked Mineta.
Izuku sniffed the air, he then pointed at Mineta, "You had pepperoni pizza for breakfast." He then pointed at Uraraka, "You had mochi." He then pointed at Kirishima, "A chocolate protein shake."
The rest of the class looked at the three he pointed out, "Well, is he right?"
They all nodded, "Woah, now that's impressive."
Just then Aizawa turned to the class, "Alright everyone time to be quiet, we have arrived."
The bus stopped in front of a giant dome building, "Woah, UA doesn't go cheap." Said Izuku looking at the building.
"Come everyone get inside, the other instructor is already inside." Said Aizawa as he walked into the building.
Once inside the class was greeted by Thirteen, the space hero. "Hello everyone, and welcome to the USJ."
Uraraka's eyes gleamed, "Wow, it's Thirteen! She's my favorite hero!"
Izuku eyed Thirteen down, 'Not much of the physical type. I wonder what kind of quirk she has.'
"Alright guys listen up, Thirteen here is going to explain everything so pay attention." said Aizawa.
"Thanks Aizawa, so this is the USJ, here you will learn rescue tactics when facing unforeseen scenarios. As many of you know quirks can be helpful in rescuing but they can also be deadly. Take my quirk for example, it's called Black Hole, I can suck up anything and break it down to its molecular compound. Perfect for rescue but also deadly if used on a person." Explained Thirteen.
"Be very careful how you use your quirks, they can do more harm than good." The class all clapped. "Thank you so let's get started shall we?"
"Hey Thirteen, I thought All Might was supposed to be here, what happened?" Asked Aizawa.
"He ran out of time and is taking a break right now. He said he would join us shortly." Said Thirteen holding up three fingers.
Aizawa sighed, "Can't do anything about that, oh well, we'll just start without him."
Just then Izuku who was in the back of the class sniffed the air and smelled something familiar. "This smell, it's the same from Monday."
Izuku then began to walk forward until he pushed passed his class and stood at the ledge of the stairs leading down to the main plaza. "Midoriya what are you doing?" Asked Aizawa.
Narrowing his eyes towards the fountain in the middle of the USJ Izuku put on his mask and slowly began to show his claws. "We got company Mr. Aizawa and they aren't friendly." Said Izuku as he raised his claws.
Aizawa was confused, he too was looking down at the plaza but couldn't see anything. That's when a black portal began to appear, and from the portal several villains appeared. "Are those robots like the entrance exam?" Asked Kirishima walking towards the ledge. Only to be stopped by Izuku's claws appearing in front of him.
"Those aren't robots, those are real villains." Said Aizawa as he pulled down his goggles. "Everyone get back, Thirteen protect the students."
Izuku then turned to Aizawa, "Are you really planning on taking them on all by yourself? That's suicide!"
"Here's your first lesson Midoriya, a hero is nothing without a few tricks up his sleeve. Now go and get out of here." Aizawa then ran down the stairs and towards the villains.
Izuku gritted his teeth, "You better not die, I still need some answers from you." he then retracted his claws and turned to the rest of the class.
Down at the fountain the black portal suddenly got bigger and two people and one thing walked through. One of them was a man with pale dry skin and a bunch of hands all over his body. The other was a man with a lab coat, "I-I shouldn't be here." the man in the lab coat said.
"Doctor, my patience with you is wearing thin. You are here only because my master told me to bring you along. Although he did not tell me the reason, you will do your job and shut up." said the man with the hands.
Behind them stood a tall muscular like monster, with razor sharp claws and a bird like face. Just then the portal closed and reformed into that of a person, "Shigaraki, everyone is here."
Shigaraki nodded, "Good work Kurogiri, you know the plan, do your part. Wait where is All Might, the intel said he would be here."
Just then Shigaraki noticed that he was losing minions, "Oh what's this?" in front of the pack was Aizawa using his capture weapon to take down minions. "It seems like the legendary hero Eraserhead has graced us with his presence. Kurogiri, go deal with the students, we can't have them leaving."
Kurogiri nodded, "Of course." he then teleported himself away.
"W-What about me?" asked the doctor.
"You will stay here." said Shigaraki.
USJ Entrance
Thirteen was rushing to get the students out of the USJ, "Come on everyone hurry!"
Izuku was running beside his class when he smelled something, "Everyone stop!"
Just then the black portal Izuku saw in the plaza appeared in front of them, "You have good senses boy, if you hadn't stopped when you did I would have teleported you all. Hello everyone, we are the League of Villains."
With a SNIKT Izuku popped his claws, "Yeah we didn't ask!" said Izuku.
Kurogiri narrowed his eyes, "Those claws, I see so you are the one." This confused Izuku as well as the rest of the class. "Regardless, I have a job to do."
However before Kurogiri could activate his quirk Bakugo and Kirishima jumped at him quirks at the ready. "Did you honestly believe we would just let you?" asked Kirishima.
From the smoke of the explosion Kurogiri's voice was heard, "And did you honestly believe that you could stand up to me? I will complete my job, now begone!" Kurogiri then activated his quirk and blanketed the students in a black mist.
Izuku saw this and quickly pushed Iida and Uraraka out of the mist, "Midoriya!"
Iida and Uraraka tried to reach out to him but it was too late, Izuku and most of the class was gone.
Izuku felt like he was falling, and opening his eyes he noticed he was. "What the!?" he looked down to see he was falling towards a mountain area.
Izuku tried to slow his fall by stabbing his claws into the mountain side but his idea quickly fell apart when he hit a ledge and hit the ground hard. Thanks to his healing powers Izuku got back up, "Man that hurt. Where am I?"
He looked around to find no one, that is until he heard the sound of fighting just over a cliff side. He walked over to see Momo and Jiro fighting some villains, "They seem to be holding their own…wait a minute." Izuku then looked up and saw another thug ready to jump on them. "Oh hell no!"
Jiro and Momo were doing the best they could, Momo was creating several swords and bo staffs to fight off the villains. Jiro was using her quirk to disorient them so she could attack and it was working. That is until the villains got smart and attacked in groups, the girls were slowly being overwhelmed. "We can't take on this many!" Jiro said, knocking another villain back.
Momo created a shield, "I know! We need back up!"
Just then a loud voice was heard from above them, "YOU'RE MINE!" The two girls looked up to see a villain with sharp claws ready to slice them.
Momo tried to create something but she was too slow, the villain was just inches away from them when from out of nowhere Izuku tackled him in mid air. The two then tumbled before stopping with Izuku on top of the villain. "Midoriya!?"
"Focus up! You drop your guard and you're dead!" Izuku yelled as he dug his claws into the villain's chest.
Everyone in the mountain area stopped in their tracks, this included Momo and Jiro. Izuku stood up with blood dripping down his claws, "D-Did that kid just kill him?" asked one of the villains.
Momo and Jiro were just as shocked, Izuku then turned to the rest of the villains. "Alright, who's next?"
Monday Before The Attack
The doctor was excited, "This is it! We have done it! The weapon is now complete."
In front of him was a briefcase, inside there was a .44 magnum handgun and 6 adamantium tipped hollow point bullets. "Doctor, are you done?" asked a voice through a monitor.
"Yes sir, we are finished. Here is the weapon capable of killing the boy." the doctor grabbed the briefcase.
"Good, good. Now get ready, you are going to be the one to kill the boy."
The doctor's eyes went wide, "M-Me! Why!?"
"You made him, it is only natural for you to be the one to end him."
"But I don't know how to shoot a gun. I won't be able to hit him." said the doctor.
"Then you are in luck, the attack has been moved to Wednesday. I suggest you use that time to practice." With that the voice disappeared.
