Waiting outside the 1-C classroom hero course student Bakugou Katsuki begins to tap his foot getting increasingly frustrated. Checking the time for probably the tenth time, he lets out a huff and barges into the classroom, finding Izuku slowly packing up his things as he talks to one of his friends. “Deku!” He yells out making his friend jump out of his seat. “Kacchan! Is it time for your hero training?” Izuku shuffles through the rest of his stuff putting it all away quickly into his bright yellow backpack. “You were taking too long, nerd.” Katsuki says pulling the smaller teen’s bag from his hand swinging it onto his back with a thump.
“K-kacchan! I can carry my bag!” Izuku says surprised by his friend's sudden gesture. “Nope.” Katsuki says popping the p before turning out the door. After standing dumbfounded watching his friend leave out the door Izuku looks down at Nozumi and says a quick goodbye to his friend. "Nozumi follow." Jogging after Katsuki the smaller teen mumbles to his service dog, the momentum and focus of Nozumi helping him to go faster. "Kacchan wait up!" Izuku yells out once he is within a reasonable distance.
Letting out a sigh Katsuki stops to wait for his friend. Once Izuku meets up with him he grabs Katsuki's arm making sure he can't leave him behind. Rolling his eyes Katsuki makes his way towards the first year's locker room. "Kacchan? Should I uh, go in?" Izuku says stopping before the door. “Deku, its just a locker room you’ve fucking been in one before.” Katsuki says as he pulls Izuku through the door. Gripping onto Katsuki's hand Izuku is led through the locker room while staring down at his feet, hoping to avoid any awkward looks at or from other students.
Once the duo reaches the back of the room Katsuki suddenly stops causing Izuku to run into his back. Letting out a grunt, Katsuki grabs his friend's arm pulling him onto the bench next to them. “Do you have your gym clothes with you?” Katsuki says slamming open his locker making Izuku jump. “Oh, uh its in my locker, but I can go get it!” Izuku yelps out jumping up. Rolling his eyes Katsuki pushes him back onto the bench, but any words he would have said were quickly lost due to a certain redhead poking his head around the corner.
“Bakubro? You good? Oh hey Midoriya!” Kirishima says with a huge smile on his face seeing the two other teens. “What’s up bros?” He says after receiving a wave and a grunt from the other teens. Sitting down next to Izuku he is met with Nozumi’s excited tail wags. “And you too little miss!” His comment earning him a smack on the head from Katsuki. “Shut up Shitty Hair. By the way do you know if anyone has a spare small uniform?” At his comment Kirishima quirks up an eyebrow. Katsuki, getting annoyed, says. “Deku forgot to bring his and his mom would probably beat my ass if he got his normal uniform dirty.”
"I mean mine is a large to help me not rip it up everytime I wear it." Kirishima says laughing and hardening his exposed skin. Izuku's eyes go wide as he realizes Kirishima's hero suit covers basically nothing above the waist. He is pulled out of his mini panic by Katsuki pulling him up by his arm. "Come on Deku. Shitty Hair said Pikachu wears a small, because you were obviously not listening.” Letting out an awkward laugh Izuku dismisses the chaotic nicknames for his friends and follows Katsuki to another part of the locker room. As the duo walks up Izuku recognizes them as Katsuki’s friends or ‘Extras’ as he insists on calling them.
“Pikachu!” Katsuki yells as the duo walks up, his loud voice causing the blond to jump unexpectedly. “Hey Bakubro! What's up?” Kaminari says, causing Katsuki to mutter something about shitty hair and a shitty nickname under his breath. “Ugh whatever, just give Deku your gym uniform.” Katsuki growls out with a glare on his face, although it falls as Izuku pipes in with a quiet, “Please can I borrow it! I'll bring it back clean tomorrow!” Laughing, Kaminari gets up and walks over to his jacket. “I forgot you were gonna be at training with us today Midobro!” Kaminari exclaims, grabbing out his gym uniform from his locker.
“Oh uh yeah! Kacchan finally got Aizawa to agree after showing him some of my analysis notes…” Izuku says rocking on his heels. As Kaminari hands Izuku his uniform Kirishima comes up behind Katsuki, hanging off his shoulder Katsuki lets out a growl. “I'm so hyped to get a quirk analysis from you bro! I'm sure they are gonna help me be so much more manly!” Kirishima says hardening his arms and knocking his fists together. Izuku lets out a small giggle at his friend’s hesitant tolerance of the red head. Before Katsuki could raise his arm to set off warning sparks Izuku runs off to the bathrooms to change, Katsuki’s annoyed voice echoing through the locker room.
As he finishes getting changed Izuku lets out a squeak as Katsuki yells banging on the stall. “Deku! Hurry up, we've got two minutes to get out to training. I'm not letting you make me late you damn nerd!” Katsuki says, causing Izuku to dash out of the stall with his shoes untied and his gym shirt unzipped. Opening the stall door, Izuku is met with the annoyed face of Katsuki who rolls his eyes and lets out a huff as he turns towards the door. “Kacchan! Wait my shoelaces!” Izuku yells out attempting to follow after Katsuki and not trip over his shoelaces at the same time.
Realizing Katsuki wasn't going to wait for him to finish getting ready, Izuku quickly stuffed his shoelaces into his clunky red shoes and races with nozumi to follow Katsuki to Ground Beta. The duo finally catch up before leaving the main building, although katsuki may never say it out loud that he would have waited. Knocking his shoulder with Izuku, Katsuki starts the short trek over to the battle ground. Scanning his id card and walking into Ground Beta, the duo is met with a small scale cityscape. “Bakugou, nice of you to join us.” AIzawa says with a monotone voice. Side eyeing the duo he continues. “I'll let it side today due to your friend, but please be on time tomorrow.”
Rolling his eyes and ignoring his teacher’s comments Bakugou grabs Izuku, dragging him over towards the sides of the doors. “Young Bakugou! Is this your friend you told us about?” Katsuki’s other teacher, the No. 1 hero All Might, booms from his spot near the door as the duo walk up. His loud voice startling Izuku and causing him to jump and hide behind Katsuki. Responding Katsuki gives the pro a death glare, “Maybe? You gonna fucking scare him again?” Before he could continue his snarky response Katsuki receives a sharp poke in the side. “Kacchan, it's fine…” Izuku says, still hiding. Letting out a sigh Katsuki backs down and pulls Izuku in front of him.
“O-oh, All Might!” Izuku says letting out a squeak. He then turns around to Katsuki and whispers. “Kacchan you didn't tell me… Zumi is wearing her All Might vest!” In response Katsuki just rolls his eyes and pushes Izuku towards All Might. “Careful there, Young... Midoriya, correct?” All Might says catching Izuku to ensure he doesn't fall. "Yes sir!" Realizing he was currently being held up by his idol, Izuku springs up, "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to fall!" In response All Might lets out a bellowing laugh. "No worries! You lost your balance is all!"
Turning red Izuku looks back at Katsuki who wasn't paying attention anymore, too busy readying his hero costume for training. Izuku begins to fidget with his fingers, inevitably getting nosed by Nozumi. The small action caught the hero's eye, Noticing Nozumi he asks in a quiet voice, “Can I say hello?” Izuku’s eyes go wide as he sputters out a response, “Oh! Of-of course!” Continuing to stare wide eyed at his favorite hero as the large man gets down onto his knees, leaving him just barely shorter than Izuku himself (Yes I did the math, if all Might was on his knees he would be about 5 ft 2in. I don't know whether to be proud or not...).
Breaking himself out of his trance Izuku sinks down onto the ground with all might Izumi following him lays down between Izuku and All Might. Instantly Nozumi pushes her face into All Mights hands gladly accepting pets. For a few minutes the two sat there just petting through her soft fur. “Her vest looks very heroic!” All Might says pointing at the sewn on patch of his face letting out a laugh. Realizing that All Might noticed Nozumi’s vest Izuku’s face went bright red in embarrassment. “Don't be embarrassed! I'm honored to be featured on such an important spot!.” All Might says giving Nozumi’s ears a ruffle.
“Well... I've always looked up to you, especially when I was at a really low point. You helped me get through some hard times, so I really wanted my two heros to be brought together... Although you are definitely so much more of a hero!” Izuku says, frantically correcting himself near the end. “Young Midoriya…” All Might says placing his hand on Izuku’s shoulder. “A service dogs job is a million times more important than mine. Because of her you are here standing in front of me and are able to tell your story!” Giving the teen a huge smile, All Might finally notices his fellow teacher’s increasing glare and makes his way over to the group of trainee heroes.
Izuku lets out a laugh as he watches the number one hero get yelled at by a fellow teacher who was over a foot shorter than him. Reaching down to fluff Nozumi’s fur, Izuku looks around to find a spot to sit during Katsuki’s training. “Deku!” Katsuki yells out drawing his eyes over to a bench with multiple water bottles and assorted discarded costume pieces sitting on it. Giving his friend a huge smile, he makes his way over. “Alright Deku, Just stay here and put Zumi behind the bench. Also, fucking pay attention to your surroundings. Okay, Nerd!?” Katsuki says quickly, grabbing Izuku’s arm and pushing him onto the bench. Once Izuku is situated Katsuki runs over to join the rest of his class in sparring.
Rustling through his bag that he brought out with him, Izuku grabs out his brand new analysis notebook labeled No. 14. Although No. 13 still isn't done Izuku wanted to start a brand new notebook for the students of 1-A to help keep track of their improvements as they go through training. As the students begin to spar with each other, Izuku starts to frantically write down notes. Occasionally Izuku will look up to observe the students, but the only time his attention was truly taken away from his notes is when Aizawa, looking vaguely like a caterpillar, flops next to him on the bench.
