#2 Savior? Wait...
(Song up there was just what I was listening to when I was writing this, ;p)
Izuku sat in his class, his embarassment finally gone from being caught staring at a blond who was working on his moves, he wondered why he was working so hard, but he could almost immediately assume that he was working to become a hero... unlike himself, as Izuku felt gloomy at the thought, he knew being a hero would be hard, even with a quirk, and he did do exercises, he just didn't overly focus on them, mostly his notes...
his mind drifted briefly before he looked down as he seemingly started to draw the blond he had saw for only a brief moment in his hero pages. jutting down words on the paper, placing each sentence connected to the smallest features before Izuku blinked at what he was writing and instantly shut his notebook, his blush was back in full-blown embarrassment.
Some of the stuff he wrote down was by habit, the whiskers: a possible animal mutation? Piercing blue eyes: vision quirk? or even an animal with enhanced vision? He looked fairly fox like... Then there were his moves: A strength enhancement or maybe even speed?
He shook his head, he knew information like this was useful, especially in fights to analyze opponents, but he also knew if he did that for everyone it would be creepy and weird... so why was the blond so different that he broke the rule that he set out for... Perhaps... he looked down before opening the pages again to where he drew his face, and the small exchange where he saw the look of determination when he was doing his kata's.(1)
He guessed it was a similar feeling to his former best friend Kacchan, he did write him down too, but that was because he knew he would be a hero, one of the greats, just like All might... The thought of his former friend made his eyes turn to the left of him, eyes ahead Katsuki Bakugo was two seats in front of him to the left. A frown broke out on his face at the thought but never the less he looked forward.
"So, first down to business, its a career day, so you have to write what profession you would like to achieve for..." Everyone looked up at the teacher who then grinned, "But who am I kidding, you're all wanting to go into the hero course, isn't that right?" As he threw the paper up as everyone seemingly started to show off their quirks. All having fairly useable quirks in some ways to get into that type of career.
"Now now, no use of quirks in the classroom." The teacher playfully scolded, knowing he was the one to cause the ruckus but as he was about to continue and knock rang on the door, silencing the classroom. "Huh... I wonder who that could be..." The teacher muttered but no one quite caught it. As the door slid open he was handed a piece of paper. "Sorry I'm late, I had to grab my schedule... and I kinda... got lost." A voice rescided and the teacher looked at the note and nodded, "It's alright, I guess I didn't check my email to see that there was another student, please come in."
Izuku sat up straight and looked curiously at the door, and when a familiar blond came through the door he instantly paled, "Oh no... This is so weird, okay shut the book and put it away." he muttered to himself and placed the notebook in his bag under the desk. "Alright, class this is your new classmate, introduce yourself." The teacher said as the blond seemingly nodded curiously as he looked at the class, "Hi, I'm Naruto Uzumaki." He bowed slightly in a greeting before standing straight up again...
He knew if he actd up, Tsunade would kill him, ressurect him, and then kill him again. He chuckled inwardly as he looked at his classmates before seeing a familiar green haired teen, the one that was seemingly staring at him in the morning... smiling slyly he looked at his new teacher who waved his hand, "There's a desk next to the window that's available." Izuku tensed as he looked to the left of him... oh no...
Naruto got to it and set his bag underneath his chair as he sat down, he turned to his right and gave a small fox like grin to Izuku who instantly turned forward. "Anyways... most of you already picked highschool so I already have a idea of what you wanted to do anyways." The teacher trailed off as a small scoff made Izuku look up from his seat to see Katsuki leaning back in his chair. "Teach, you really shouldn't lump these losers in the hero course, they will just become some unnamed sidekicks." Naruto to the left of Izuku frowned at the attitude, "Jeez whats his deal." Naruto muttered.
"I'm going to be aiming for the top, and be the only student from this school ever to go to UA." Naruto snorted at that and everyone turned at the sound, "Sorry, I'm also aiming for UA so, apologize if that disrupts your plan of yours." Naruto grinned as Katsuki turned and glared at him, "Haaa? What's your quirk whiskers, doubt it would be able to compare to the likelihood of mine!" Naruto rolled his eyes, "Knowledge is power, I wouldn't want to give you any as you seem to be drowning in your own self centeredness."
The class got quiet at that as Katsuki seemingly blown up... literally out from his chair, "Ya wanna go ya cat looking ass!" Naruto looked up with a bored look, "Ha? You say something?" He put his pinky in his ear before looking at it. Izuku choked slightly at the complete dismissal of Katsuki, knowing what that would do. "Wait Midoriya, weren't you also aiming to go for UA?" Izuku paled as everyone in class seemingly turned to him except Naruto who didn't know anyones name, but after seeing the look on Katsuki's face he looked towards him in curiosity.
The laughter was not something that Naruto expected. "Midoriya really!? That's Impossible!" "Yeah good luck you idiot!" "That's impossible without a quirk!" Naruto blinked instantly understanding the situation. "N-No it isn't, they removed the rule where quirkless people c-can't apply." Katsuki's movement instantly made Naruto aware as the blond slammed his hand into Izuku's desk, "DEKU!" Izuku jumped as the explosion blackened his desk where the blonds hand had landed.
"You're WORSE then these rejects! A worthless DEKU that can't even do anything right! Why in the world would UA accept you when they could HAVE ME!" The look on Katsuki's face made Izuku scamper back further in his chair, "T-They could have us both? A-And i-it's b-been my... our dream since we w-were little... s-so I wanted to t-try..." Naruto's eyes softened at the timid nature of the boy, but he only could assume that it was from the red eyed blond. "You'll Try?!"
Naruto looked at the teacher who was seemingly ignoring what was happening and he frowned, "Hey explody." Katsuki looked over and then paled as he saw Naruto holding up a phone. "You wouldn't want this on the internet for many hero agencies and even schools to see illegal quirk usage will you? And you too teacher, senseless bullying and ignoring it because he's quirkless? Imagine what would happen to this school after that." Izuku looked over and saw a red little blinking light on the phone before looking down, paleing at the thought.
Katsuki took his hand off the desk and grounded at his teeth in annoyance as he sat back down at his seat. putting his phone back in his pocket, Naruto looked out the window in annoyance, how could humanity turn out so horrificly. Izuku looked over slightly shocked that someone stood up for him, especially to a entire school for that matter... as the class began, Izuku kept looking at him from time to time, and sometimes Naruto would look over back and smiled gently.
Izuku didn't know how to feel about that... but never the less he smiled as he looke forward, a little shyly more then anything... his friends were limited to 'no one'. Only focusing on his school studies and his hero notes... As the school bell rang, Izuku grabbed his phone and scrolled through the news feed before looking at one of the highlights, one being the villain fight over the large villain and the capture made by Mount lady.
"Huh, that's all over the news, guess Mount lady's debut is going to be a success." He said with a small look of impatience, only talking a little bit about Kamui Woods. "I wonder if I can get anymore notes today..." He muttered as he stood up only for Katsuki to glare at him as he did. "Deku." Izuku froze up as Katsuki stepped forward only for Naruto step in between the two. "Tch... Don't even try to go to UA." He placed his bag over his shoulder as his normal two lackies waited at the door, "If you really want to be a hero pray for one in your next life, and take a swan dive off the roof."
Izuku tensed at that as did Naruto who glared at the blond in a twisted anger. "Whatever..." Katsuki started to walk out the door as Izuku sighed as he looked out the window. "Thinking about jumping?" The blond next to him asked making Izuku look over in surprise to see A very worried look on his face. "Of course not... It's just that... Kacchan's words hurt... like what would have happened if I did, what would he do then..." Sighing Izuku grabbed his bag and pulled up to put it on his back, but his zipper was open and some of his notebooks fell out.
"Crap.." He muttered as he knelt down, as did Naruto who grabbed a few of his books, and he seemingly grabbed his hero notes and he blinked at it, Izuku blushed brightly. "Hero notes for the future?" He asked, turning a page and saw a few pages, and Izuku prayed that he wouldn't flip anymore pages... which luckily he didn't. "Y-Yeah..." Izuku looked down, his eyes only on the notebook and Naruto closed it and handed it back, as did the other books he grabbed. "It's very detailed. You must be really smart."
A pink hue appeared on his face from the praise. He scratched his head after placing his stuff back in his bag and zipping it up. "Naruto Uzumaki!" He held out his hand for Izuku to grab making Izuku look up at him in curiosity and only saw a grin. "Izuku Midoriya..."He grabbed the hand slightly awkwardly but smiled slightly. "So... why were you staring at me training?" Izuku blushed brightly and let go of his hand and started fumbling his words. "I-I just saw you! And t-that dojo was always closed so I never got the chance to go there so when I s-saw you there I thought it opened back up again..."
Naruto laughed loudly at that, "Aha I'm just teasing." Naruto placed his hands over his head, his form very carefree as Izuku stopped waving his hands. "So... Kacchan? That's not his real name is it? He your ex or something?" Naruto tilted his head but Izuku shook his head quickly. "N-no it wasn't l-like that... we were just... best friends when we were little and that was his nickname for me..." He muttered as he frowned at the thought making Naruto hum.
"His name is Katsuki Bakugo..." Izuku finally said making him nod. "Hmm, I would say I have met someone more irritating then that but I would be lying." Izuku's lips turned slightly into a smile at the jab, he knew he wasn't pleasant, but he wasn't a bad example... he knew more than anyone that Katsuki was really determined to be a hero... "Ah... can you not post that video... I don't really wanna cause anyone not to be a hero...especially Kacchan..." Naruto hummed.
"I lied about the video, I didn't get enough time to press record... so I Improvised." He lifted up his finger as a small aura appeared on his finger and it appeared to be blue.. but turned into a small red dot... that suddenly started to blink like a recording. "Wow..." Izuku looked at it in awe. "Is it a illusion quirk? Or is it like a aura that can do anything you want? Oh the possibilities, can you make yourself invisible if you change the hue to it?" He muttered and Naruto blinked curiously as he stared at the little orb before it disapated.
"You're a little weird." Naruto stated making Izuku pause and look down a little dejectedly. "Sorry." The blond looked over his shoulder with a grin, "Why? Atleast you're not an ass, but I suppose you have a good example not to lead with that Bakugo running around... besides, isn't everyone a little weird?" Izuku blinked as Naruto started to walk to the door. "If you ever want to train, I can show you a little around the dojo as my family owns it now.""T-Train?" Naruto looked behind him again and looked at him with a frown.
"They said you applied to UA right? Of course to train." Izuku walked forward, before stopping in front of him, "Y- Do you think I can be a hero?" Naruto looked at him with a hum, "Ever hear of Eraserhead?" Izuku frowned but nodded his head, "He's a hero who erases peoples quirks." Nodding his head Naruto grinned, "He can't do that to mutants so he basically fights quirkless with support weapons, if he can do it, so can you." Naruto paused slightly as he looked behind him with the same grin. "Besides maybe you do have a quirk... those eyes seem too darn bright when you talk quirks like mine." With that Naruto left and left a stunned Izuku Midoriya in his place.
...
Izuku was in his own little world walking home... he had been in a daze after the words were said, but his own mindset of walking home was still there... "If he can do it, so can you." a chill ran up his spine as he wondered if Naruto's words were genuine... but the smile, the eyes... he couldn't see any lies... He placed his hand on his other hand, rubbing it slightly, trying to rid the chill as he passed under a small underside of a bridge, some drain dashed through the area for a stormdrain, limiting the risk of floods.
"I can be a hero... I'll just go over to the dojo after I go home." Izuku muttered before he heard a squelching sound and he turned around to see this big green blob of sludge coming out from one of the drains he just passed. "You can be a hero alright! JUST LEND ME YOUR BODY!" The sludge instantly went for him and he felt the chill that ran up his spine just a moment before be back and Izuku dodged away from the sludge.
"Slippery little brat aren't you!" Izuku looked back and forth from the small little space that they were both in, only a small amount of dodging room. Staring at the villain in front of him he grabbed his pen that he had in his pocket and he grimaced. "He basically fights quirkless with support weapons, if he can do it, so can you." Grinning slightly as he placed his feet firmly to the ground. "Oh now your not afraid? Come on kid, do me a favor." The sludge darted forward. "STOP BREATHING!"
Izuku looked at one of two places which was exposed... Moving to the side he stabbed the pen into the villain's right eye. The villain screamed out in outrage as it started to placed parts of sludge over his damaged eye, where the pen was jutting out. "YOU BRAT!" But before anything else happened, the storm drain where the sludge villain came from bursted open and Izuku looked behind him to see a familiar face... with... cargo pants? "Fear not young man... Cause I am here!"
Izuku turned around as he had a large smile appear on his face. "All might!" He said brightly, but as he turned the sludge villain tried to encase him as he was finally distracted. "COME HERE!" but before he could wrap around the boy, All might appeared behind him and yelled. "DETROIT SMASH!" And the sludge was splattered all over the walls. Izuku turned again and saw it all and looked around in awe before up at All might.
"All might! C-can I have your autograph?" He grabbed his notebook and flipped to a page where he put All might's notes down, the most detailed notes were down in this section of the book. A large section of the book was left untouched as he always did this many of the heroes, as he wanted to get a autograph for many of his favorite heroes. "Of course young shonen!" He grabbed the notebook and Izuku reached for his pen... but then remembered... "A-ah sorry, let me grab another pen..." He looked at the eye that was sitting upon a pile of sludge.
As Izuku grabbed a pen, All might looked at the notes and also the pen that was lodged into the villains eye. "Young man, do you have a intelligence quirk?" Izuku froze at the question as he grabbed a pen from his bag before looking up at him. "N-No..." Izuku muttered as he looked down but gave All might the pen. The hero placed his name in the place that was left for him and nodded his head. "Your notes are really detailed, even tho most people view my quirk as strength, you put much thought into it!" He laughed before he started empty bottles from his grocery bag.
All might started picking up sludge. "What is you're quirk? You handled yourself very well!" Izuku frowned and stayed still. "I-I'm quirkless..." He muttered making All might turn around for a brief moment and saw the sad look on the boys face. "I... I was told by everyone to give up, or nothing at all... but someone today gave me the first ounce of courage to do it... do you think someone quirkless can be a hero?" Izuku looked up and saw All might looking at him, his face remained in a smile.
"What is your name." Izuku looked up in surprise at the question, not expecting it. "I-Izuku Midoriya." All might nodded his head, seemingly like to remember the name. "Why do you wan't to be a hero?" Izuku looked up at the roof of the storm drain in thought... "Well... I guess I grew up to want to be one... but when I think about it..." He stuttered out slightly before looking at All might in the eyes. "I want to be a hero that saves everyone, to run into fire, even if its dangerous, dive head first into the ocean of sharks... just to save everyone."
All might smile grew if that was possible. "I see, well I have a proposition for you, after I get this guy to the station meet me at Dagobah beach in an hour." Izuku blinked away the shock as All might started picking up sludge very quickly, grabbing the eyeballs and most of the sludge before shoving it all into two bottles and strapped them into his cargopants. "See you in a hour young Midoriya!" and with that All might pushed himself off.
