All might was coming out from behind the bus, more people on his back, laughing. Four year olds L/n Y/n and Midoriya Izuku were amazed, watching with bright eyes. He stepped heavily into the top, standing straight, the smile still on his face. "It's fine now. Why?" The two if possible, smiled brighter, eyes twinkling. "Because I am here." At that, it felt like the world has changed, hearing their favorite hero's line. Izuku pumped his fist in the air with Y/n next to him smiling like an idiot.

"He's so cool! Once I get my Quirk, I wanna be just like him, too!" At that line, Y/ns smile fell slightly. She was slowly losing hope in her best friends Quirk but would never say it out loud. She never had to. Next thing she knows, she's back in the doctor's office that terrible day. "You should probably give it up." She was shocked at those words. She had such a strong power yet her best friend, whom she was supposed to become a hero with, had no power. At all.

Even though, she knows that true...

A scene flash from earlier with Bakugo. "You're below the rejects! You're Useless! How can you even stand in the same ring as me? What the hell can you do?"

She hopes that, he's still alive. She knows he is. So, when he comes out smiling, happy to see her, she will finally tell him to not lose hope, not because she lost hope, but because their favorite hero has hope. In him. In them. Even if everyone thinks... That he... Even if he...

"Could someone Quirkless ever become a hero?" He stopped walking, listening to her. "Can even someone without a Quirk be like you?"

He turned around, looking at the young girl, tears in the corner of her eyes. After awhile he finally speaks. "Without a Quirk...?" All of a sudden, something happens, and smoke starts coming from him, as he's bent over holding his stomach. She didn't notice, and opened her eyes, looking down at the floor.

"It might've been because, he doesn't have a Quirk, but he's always been made fun of..." She looked to the side, fumbling with her hands. "Maybe that why... I don't know... But I think saving people is pretty cool." She smiled slightly, still not looking up. "Saving people with a fearless smile. He and I wanted to be the greatest heroes, like you...!" She looked up, wiping her eyes, then saw a smaller, scrawnier, version of All Might.

Shocked, she starts shaking, then let's out a loud scream.

Tatooin Shopping District

In an alleyway, a soda container with green goo was seen. Then, it opened it's eyes. 'Wh-Where am I...? What happened...?' He looked around, confused, then remembered what happened. All Might found him attacking Y/n and Texas Smashed him, putting him in the soda bottle. 'If it weren't for that bastard...' He started shaking with anger, trying to get out the container when some teens came down.

"Oi, Katsuki, aren't you and Y/n childhood friends? You went a little overboard today." He drank his soda, then held it in his hand. "It's her fault for getting in my way." All of a sudden, he kicked the bottle, and it hit against a pole, opening it and letting out the sludge villain. "Don't let it get to you." He looked down, thinking about what he said. He snarled, "She's an idiot dreaming like a kid!" He angrily smashed the can, exploding it.

"Just watching her pisses me off!" His goons looked at each other, dumbfounded, then back to him. He rubbed his hand off on his pants, looking at them. "Then, why don't we go to the arcade for a change of pace? You'll come, too, right, Katsuki?" One of them said, while Bakugo just answered a plain, "Yeah."

The sludge villain came up from behind, passing the exploded can that was discarded on the floor.

Then let's go to the one in front of the station. There's lots of prey there."

"Your terrible."

"What?! If we get caught, it'll end up on my record! The goons looked at each other, then back at Bakugo, scared of something behind him. "Hey, look!" They pointed behind him, so he looked, and the sludge villain stood up.

"An invisible cloak with a great Quirk!" He slowly became bigger than the explosive blond, scaring him.

Back on the roof

"Y-Y-You're deflating...!" He stared at her blankly, while she was looking around, thinking it was a prank. "Wait, up until now... Huh?! Fake? A fake?! You're so skinny!" He looked at her, then spoke, "I am All Might..." Then, blood just started dripping down from his mouth. She screamed out, scared.

"No way!" He sighed, then explained, "You know how the guys at the pool are constantly flexing and posturing? It's like that." While explaining, he wiped his mouth and chin. "No way...! I-It can't be..."

All Might is fearless...
He saves everyone with a smile...
He's the greatest...

"A fearless smile, huh?" He slowly sat down. 'I said that out loud...?' "Now that you've seen me like this, young girl, make sure you don't write about it online, even accidentally." She looked confused, then scared. He pulled up his shirt, showing a nasty scar.

"It's an injury I got from and enemy's attack five years ago. Half of my respiratory organs were destroyed, and I lost my whole stomach. I've become emaciated from repeated surgeries and the aftereffects."

She nodded, losing up, and sat down on her knees. "Right now, I can only work about three hours a day." She thought for awhile, remembering what Izuku and her talked about for hours. "Five years ago... Was that when you fought Toxic Chainsaw?"

"You're well-informed. But a punk like that couldn't defeat me." She nodded, "Well, me and my friend studied this for fun, it was a habit." He understood, then continued, "This fight was not made public to the world. I asked that it not be made public."

He thought for a moment, before looking up determinedly. "I will save people with a smile! The Symbol of Peace cannot be daunted by evil." He looked down at his hand, "I smile to show the pressure of heroes. And to trick the fear inside me." She looked confused, shocked even.

"Pros are always risking their lives. I cannot simply say, 'Anyone can become a hero even without power'." At that, she looked saddened, but always knew deep down. "I see..." She stood up, and looked at him again. "If you want to help others and still work with your friend, then you both can become a police officer. They're often teased because they get villains delivered to their doorstop, but that's also a fine occupation."

He walked away, leaving her drowning in her thoughts, tears in her eyes. "It's not bad to dream. But you also have to consider what's realistic, young one." Then, he left.

"Now, I need to quickly get this guy..." He looked in his pockets, confused, not seeing the bottles. He looked around, on the stairs, floor, and behind him. No bottle seen. But, in the distance, an explosion was seen. "Don't tell me..."

She looked out, seeing the explosion. Coming to her senses. "A villain! What hero will go to the scene?" She started jogging to the door, then remembered what All Might told her, and stopped. She looked down, sad, then walked.

All might was running to the scene, losing breath quickly. Everyone around the scene was confused.

Buildings were being exploded and there were fires all around the scene. Everyone was running away, scared. "It's a villain!" Hero's quickly were on the scene, but they couldn't get close. "A child was taken hostage?!" Deathly arms said, hitting his fists together before running at the villain, "You coward!" He jumped up, ready to attack, but his fist was sucked in by the goo.

He tried grabbing it but was confused. "What is this? I can't grab hold!" While distracted, the villain attack him, pushing him back into the metal. One of the hero's called out for him, almost running after him before the others pulled him back. "Crap!" Then, the villain tried attacking him, but he jumped away. "Don't come near me!"

Bakugo was pissed, moving his head to get loose, yelling out. "I won't let sewage like this swallow me! You little--!" He sent out explosions, trying to get out. The impact of the explosions made the wind crazy, the hero's blocked their faces with their hands.

He tried getting loose, slowly moving forward and forward. "What power! I've hit the jackpot! With this Quirk and power, I can get revenge on that guy!" He made himself bigger, expanding and making a barrier around himself and Bakugo using extra goo.

That stirred up alot of conversations and confusion within the pedestrians. "Woah, what's that?!" "Could he be a big-shot villain?" Then, something caught a females eyes. "She's here! The rookie hero, Mt. Lady!" Coming closer and closer, the blond haired hero ran over, then gasped. "W-Wait... I need there to be atlease two lanes!" She tried mesuring with her foot but couldn't make it through.

The two boys Bakugo was with were there, trapped between rubble and fires, surrounded, when all of a sudden Kamui grabs them, along with others and runs out. "I'm not good with explosions! I'll leave it to someone else today!"

"Thanks for that! I have my hands full fighting this fire." Backdraft exclaimed, using his quirk to get rid of some of the fires. He looked around confused. "The firetrucks not here yet?" He looked over to the other heros, "How are things over there?"

"He's sticky and hard to grab, and a child with a strong Quirk is struggling against him. Thanks to that, it's a minefield." They looked back at the villain between the flames, not being able to move. "It's hard to do anything against this triple play!" Slowly, the slime villains mouth was over Bakugos, keeping him from breathing.

The hero was getting upset, and the villain saw, and tried to attack the two. "Crap!" Then, they ran, right before he landed the big punch. "It's no use! There's no one who can take care of this at the scene right now!"

"All we can do is wait for someone with a more suitable Quirk!" Windows exploded, and Backdraft was still trying to stop the fires. "Let's hold back the damage until then!"

"Don't worry, I'm sure someone will be here soon!" Kamui grabbed more people, putting them on a rooftop. 'I feel bad for that child, but he'll have to bear it a little longer.' "Damn it!"

'If only I had enough power to blow that guy away!'

From behind the crowd, All Might was walking up from behind. (Duh) "Hey, doesn't it look kinda bad?" "You can do it, heroes!" He rested against the lamp, panting, then looked in between the people to see what was happening.

From the crack, he saw the slime villain, alot of fire, and explosions. He remembered when he was making sure Y/n wouldn't fall when they were flying.

'It was back then! I was too distracted by my time limit! I can't believe I made a mistake like this after admonishing that fan. Pathetic...' He held onto his scar, tightening the grip. 'Pathetic...'

Y/n was walking sadly, looking at Izukus burnt notebook, reading it. She was on a page with Kamui Woods, and read the notes. 'They still can't face the reality even though they're already third years in Junior high."

She flipped to the next page, seeing Mt. Lady. 'It's time for you to think seriously about your future.'

Then, she flipped to the autograph of all might. 'You also have to consider what's realistic.' She sighed, closing the book, looking at the cover. "Even a top pro said it." She sniffled, tears threatening to fall, and wiped her nose. 'Don't cry! You knew, didn't you?'

'The reality...?'

You knew. That's why you were trying so desperately. You were adverting your eyes, not looking at reality. All for him...

She was snapped out her thoughts by a loud explosion, so she looked over, confused. "Is this where the explosions were earlier...? Hang on, does that mean I came out of habit without noticing?"

She walked across the street, going into the group. 'Don't go there. Stop it. It'll just feel meaningless right now.'

She tried looking past the people, then finally got a view, gasping. 'Whys that guy here?! Did it get away from All Might?' She looked scared, backing away slowly while remembering.

'Did he drop it? If so then it's my...' "Then it's my fault..."

"Why aren't the heroes doing anything?" "They can't. Apparently the villain has a junior high schooler. It's been like that for awhile." That made her jump, looking over.

'Caught...? It's been like that for awhile? How can they bear that suffocation?' She shuddered, remembering how it felt when she was there. In their situation. 'I thought I'd die after a few seconds.'

"Wow..."

"Anyways, wasn't that villain the one All Might was chasing earlier?"

"All Might? No way! He's here?"

"I think I saw him earlier."

"Seriously?!"

"Then what's he doing?"

Y/n felt like she was suffocating again, scared, then slowed her breathing, sighing, hands clasped over her mouth. 'It's my fault...! He can't do anything!'

'Pathetic...'

She looked at the villain, scared. 'He can't catch that guy.'

'All we can do is wait for a hero with a more suitable Quirk!'

'Pathetic...'

'Do your best! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!'

'Pathetic!'

'Help will arrive soon...'

'Pathetic!'

'Someone... A hero... Will soon...' She felt like passing out, couldn't hear anyone else, she was trapped, not seeing anything or anyone until...

She saw who was trapped. The blond hair, the fire, the eyes... He opened his mouth, then something snapped and she set off running into the scene.

All Might and the heroes didn't know what to do.

She couldn't hear anyone. She screamed loudly, throwing her bookbag into the villains eyes. The pain allowed Bakugo to breath, the strain on his mouth off. He coughed, and she screamed out. "Bakugo!" She started gripping at the goo, trying to get him out.

"Why are you here?!" She gasped, still clawing, tears flooding her vision. "My legs moved on their own! I couldn't stand seeing you like this! I don't want you to end up like Izuku!" With that, reality struck and she cried, gripping even harder at the goo. "Stop it...!" All Might saw what she did, shocked, and Bakugo was once again being covered in goo.

'Pathetic' Slowly, smoke came out and he was getting bigger. 'Pathetic!' He grew even more. 'Just a little longer!'

The villain was getting annoyed by Y/n and tried attacking her, while Bakugo yelled, "Don't get in my way!"

The hero's jumped into action to grab her back. "She'll die in vein! Is she suicidal?!" She tried putting up a barrier, but it was useless. All Might had come up and blocked it.

'All Might...' "Even though I admonished you, I wasn't putting what I said into practice!" He broke his arm out the goo, then grabbed Bakugos arm, pulling him out while blood came out his mouth. "Pros are always risking their lives!"

"All Might!" He got ready to punch him, realing back him arm, then yelled out, "Detroit Smash!" And punched him using alot of power.

Wind flew, there was no more fire, it put it out, the air was cleaned out, and Mt. Lady covered the pedestrians. It looked like a tornado with no storm till finally the wind settled down.

He was panting, resting on the floor, shirt ripped. Everyone was amazed. Eyes wide opened until it started raining.

"Rain?" "Don't tell me it's from the wind pressure just now?" "An updraft developed and..." Bakugo and Y/n were on the floor behind All Might, staring at the sky, blanked out and trying to realise what was happening.

'He made... Clouds...?' He wiped the blood off his mouth, then stood up smiling. "Hey, hey, hey, hey!" "With just his right fist, he changed the weather!" "That's amazing!" "That's All Might for ya!" He fell back slightly, then raised up his fist.

After this, heros collected the scattered goo, and safely delivered it to the police.

Y/n looked over to All Might, who was being reported on. She looked back to Deathly Arms and Kamui Woods who were scolding her. "Geez, there's a limit to how rash you can be! There was absolutely no reason for you to put yourself in danger!" She looked down, tears at the corner of her eyes.

I got majorly scolded by the heroes,
But Bakugo was praised.

"That was amazing toughness! And that Quirk! Once your a pro, please come to my agency! You'll definitely be an excellent sidekick!" Bakugo didn't listen, he just looked over to Y/n, confused and angry.

It was later in the day, and Y/n was walking home, looking down at the ground.

I wanted to apologize to All Might, but he was still getting interviewed...

I'll try sending him a message on his website when I get home.

She was quickly cut out of her thoughts by her nickname being called. "Yuyo!" She turned around, seeing Bakugo running up to her. "Kacchan...?"

When he finally got closer, he started talking. "I never asked for your help! And you didn't help me! Got it?! I was fine by myself. You're just friends with the Quirkless failure playing without a full deck! Don't look down on me!"

Hearing the word Quirkless, she had tears growing in her eyes, then looked down. He slowly lowered his voice, seeing that. "And... What did you mean by 'end up like Deku'? I'm not weak." She looked up at him, then started crying, falling on the floor. "I-I know that! I'm the weak one, but when I saw you, all I saw was him!"

His eyes went wide, and he wiped his eyes, and seeing her crying, hugged her. "Don't bring this up to anyone... I didn't hug you..." She nodded, hugging him back while crying before he left.

She stood up, walking back to her home, but after one step, All Might popped up. "I am here!"

She gasped, then rubbed her eyes. "A-All Might?! Why are you here...? You were surrounded by reporters until just now..." He laughed, hands on his hips. "Getting away from them was a piece of cake. Why? Because I am All Migh--" before he could finish, he spit out blood, becoming small again.

He wiped the blood, then looked back at her. "Young one. I come with thanks, a correction, and a suggestion. If you hadn't been there... If you hadn't told me about your life... I would've turned into a guy in a bodysuit who was all talk. Thank you."

"That can't be... It was my fault in the first place. I got in the way of your work, and I said all those impediment things just because of a Quirkless friend... And... I think my mental state?" She looked away to the side, feeling ashamed.

"That's right. It was because it was none other than than the timid, sad, crazy you at the scene, that I was able to act." She was confused, lowered her hands, then looked at him.

"Top heroes have stories about them from their school days. Most of their stories have one thing in common: Their bodies moved before they had a chance to think." With that, her eyes glimmered, feeling the tears at her eyes. "And I'm sure that your friend would have that happen to him too, if you hang out as much as you talk about him." She smiled, looking at the ground, tears in her eyes.

She tried her hardest not to cry, holding her waist. "That was true for you, too, wasn't it?" She whimpered, trying not to cry. "Yeah..."

I was remembering everything that happened with me and Izuku. The bullying, the realization, the plans, all of it.

He looked at her, she was on the floor, head looking down at the ground. "You guys can become heros. Quirkless or not." She cried, head on the pavement as she clenched her heart. "Dreams can become reality."

Oh yeah, by the way, I forgot to mention that this is how 'Deku' became the greatest hero.
