Author's Note, Due to losing 12 stories because of that weird glitch I am going to have to repost all of them until the issue is fixed by Wattpad.

It was a normal school day, I was trying to write in one of my hero notebooks as the class was super rowdy as per the usual. Paper balls were being thrown about the room as well as airplanes and other objects. A stapler is thrown across the room and smashes a window opposite the door and I just continue to write in my journal. The whole idea that All Might would give me this legendary ‘One for All’ was insane to even begin to dream about so I had given up on that prospect. Even though I'm quirkless I can become a hero if I try hard enough right?” Soon the teacher walks in with a bunch of papers in his arms and tries to calm the class from using their quirks all willy nilly. The teacher gets to the front of the class before beginning to speak, I for one try to make myself as invisible as possible because all that i've known since my diagnosis was resent and bullying. 

“Alright settle down, wait a second. Where's my stapler and why is there a hole in the window? Who did this?” The teacher asks as everyone instantly points as me and I ignore them. I continue to draw in my hero book designing a costume for myself that I can wear when I become a hero. “Don't give me that, Midoriya just draws in his notebook while you lot sit there and use your quirks in school. Which is illegal by the way! He's my best student so knock it off.” He reprimands before clearing his throat and stepping behind his wooden podium. “Now, since you all are third years you need to start thinking of a career soon so today we are doing career aptitude tests.” He says picking up the stack and tapping it on the side a couple times before throwing them in the air and exclaiming: “But we aren't doing these since I know you all just want to be heroes.” This causes the class to start celebrating and using their quirks again. 

“Don't lump me in with all these extras teach!” Kacchan says with a smug look on his face. “Here we go again.” I think before his tirade starts. “I'm the only one from this landfill of a school that is getting into UA hight. All you other extras are gonna end up sidekicks to some busted D-lister. I'm gonna be greater than All Might himself and He will give me the legendary quirk One for All!” He says jumping up on his seat and self proclaiming himself the next holder of that legendary power. 

“Bakugou Katsuki, it seems you applied to UA right? Oh and Midoriya applied too but he applied to both the general education and hero courses.” He says before the class bursts out laughing. 

“Really? Deku thinks he has a shot at getting in the hero course. Come on man be reasonable the first villain you meet will kill you on the spot.” 

“Be real Deku, you wont even survive the entrance exams.” 

“He probably thinks All Might will some how give Him of all people One for All.” 

    At this point I shut down and continue to draw in my book before Kacchan slams his hands on my desk in anger. I look up at him with tired and dead eyes as he goes on to berate me for just existing. It's not like I chose to be quirkless, we used to be best friends… What happened? If he was the one that was quirkless I would have stayed by his side the entire time and encouraged him to become a hero. After what feels like a twenty minute rant the teacher gets him to stop and I go back to writing in my notebook. The school day goes on in what feels like an eternity and finally we get to go home. As I'm packing my things I make sure to pack my notebook first and I'm holding my text book in my hand before it is snatched by Kacchan who starts flipping through the pages. 

“Don't you dare even think about applying to UA Deku. I'm gonna be the only one from this school to get in. Look, if you want a quirk that much there is a way to get one and it's not from All Might.” He says before exploding the textbook and throwing it through the window. “Take a swan dive off the roof and pray you get one in the next life.” He says with a laugh before walking away. 

“Idiot, what gives him the right to act like he's all high and mighty just because he has a quirk. I'll show him. I'll show everyone that doubted me and prove them wrong.” I say after packing my bag and leaving the school. 

    I don't bother to grab the text book from the koi pond since it was a class set and the camera in the room saw him blow it up and throw it. I start making my way home and watching all the other pedestrians walk by not caring about the world or things they can't control. Kacchan and I were best friends a long time ago and what feels like a past life at this point. If the roles were reversed I wouldn't become what he is today. I admire his tenacity even though it seems foolish to continue to try to be nice to someone who beat me mercilessly for the past decade of my life. As I continue my walk along the back streets of Mustafu a thought comes to my mind. “That statistic of 80% of the human population having quirks, that can't be right. If it was then there would be 40 people at my school alone who are quirkless and over 200 in my apartment building. From what I've experienced it's more like 99% because I'm the only quirkless person in this entire province of japan or possibly even all of japan.’ My thoughts are interrupted by a tentacle of sludge that grabs my leg and pulls me backwards. 

“Perfect… I have a meat suit I can use for my Escape.” The sludge villain says as it oozes out of a sewer drain and onto the sidewalk of the underpass I was walking through. It starts to try to suffocate me with all it's disgusting ooze that makes me wretch from it smell. As my vision fades to black I see the silhouette of a man in a white t-shirt and green shorts explode through a manhole cover. 

“...hey… Hey… Hey!... HEY!!!” He says as consciousness returns to me, as soon as my vision returns I'm met with the visage of All Might standing in front of me. He flattens out his hand and waves slightly before speaking again. “Thought we lost you there!” Aaaannd I freak out. To spare myself from any further embarrassment I'm going to skip what I said, 

    After signing my hero notebook and as he's just about to leave I realize that I needed to ask him a question, it wasn't about One for All but I need to know. As he goes to jump I grab his leg as he rockets off the ground. In mid air he realizes that I'm holding on to him. “Hey! I love my fans but this is too much! You need to get off me!” He shouts. “No wait! If it's from this height I'll die!” “Oh! Right, you have a point.”He says before we land on a building and I have to catch my breath trying to recover from a panic attack and possibly even a heart attack. 

“That was very foolish of you young man. Knock on the door for a while someone will let you in.” He says before getting ready to jump again. 

“Wait! I need to know something before you go. And this isn't about your quirk…” I say before looking up and realizing that All Might is now a skeleton. “Wait! You're not All Might! Where’d All Might go.” 

“That's enough! I am All Might but due to an injury I can only hold that form for about 3 hours a day. You know how fat guys are always sucking in their gut and flexing trying to look buff at the pool? That's basically what I do.” He responds. 

“This can't be real!” 

“What did you want to ask me Young man?” He says quickly changing the subject. “This is the first time someone in years had to ask me something that wasn't in regards to my quirk.” 

“Can someone without a quirk be a hero too?” He stays silent for a little bit before walking up to me and placing a hand on my shoulder. 

“I believe anyone can be a hero young man, even if you're quirkless. The fact of the matter is that the way the society has been shaped everyone is about flashy quirks. It is a dangerous world out there so I'm not going to sugar coat things. Though someone who is quirkless can become a hero it will be a very short career even if they manage to become a pro. With the look in your eyes I can see that you've been bullied for something out of your control but still you progress towards your goal and I commend you for that. If this is truly the path you wish to go on then do it but know that it will be a hard and unforgiving one. Villains don't have any regard for human life, and oftentimes Don't take prisoners.” He says and I give him a smile in return.

“Thank you… All Might.” I respond before he flexes his buff form and jumps away. 

    After getting down from the roof I continued my walk home with my mood lifted with the words that All Might had said still ringing in my ears. Out of the corner of my eye I see a few police cars go flying past as well as a fire truck before a massive explosion rocks the ground I'm walking on. Out of some strange instinct I start sprinting towards the origin of that explosion. Rounding the corner of a block from where I started running I see a crowd of people with several pro heroes standing in front of an alley with the orange glow of fire coming from it. As I get to the crowd and shimmy my way to the front, my eyes widen in horror at what I see. Kacchan is stuck in the center of that same sludge villain that assaulted me and that All Might had bottled up. Before I or anyone could react I find myself sprinting towards the villain as fast as I can go. 

    I stop in front of the sludge monster and sling my bag from my back before chucking it into it's face and grabbing some rubble and trying to hit it's other eye. I manage to graze it with a piece of glass just slightly which gives me enough time to get up to the monster and try to free Kacchan. I start pulling at the sludge to get him away from it before I grab hold of his wrist and start to pull him free. Before I manage to do so, All Might arrives and grabs the back of my shirt before launching a Detroit Smash at the villain turning it to paste and extinguishing the fires. After the villain was dealt with, Kacchan starts coughing and looks to me with an expression of gratitude for saving his life before realising it was me and scowling again. Death arms and another couple of heroes run up to me and Kacchan before starting to berate me for running in there. 

“Are you insane?! You should have let the pros handle it boy. You could’ve been killed.” He shouts as All Might turns to him and even though he's smiling I can tell he's angry with what Death Arms had said. 

“This young man had risked his life to do the right thing while you did nothing to help. You're a professional hero, which means that no matter the situation or enemy you run in there with no regard for your safety but for that of others.” All Might scolds causing death arms to visibly shrink hearing this. 

After being looked over by the paramedics I finally started making my way home. Along the way Kacchan comes after me giving me a half baked thank you before saying he didn't need my help. As he leaves I turn around and continue to walk towards the apartments where I live. About a quarter of a kilometer left before getting home. All Might appears from an alleyway proclaiming his arrival. “I AM HERE!” He shouts before flexing and going poof before spitting up blood going back to his skinny form. I run up to him to make sure he's alright before he wipes the blood from his lip and stands up to adress me. 

“I'm very proud of what you did today Young man. You proved to me that you are more heroic than some pro heroes out there. Young man… I find you worthy of becoming my successor. You can be a hero.” He says before I start breaking down crying from overwhelming emotions. “I deem you worthy of holding One for All.”
