Chapter Text
I AM HERE, I AM HERE
Ugg I need to get rid of that alarm clock. I said as I smacked it until it turned off.
I only have one thing to do today, then I can come back to my cozy bed.
It’s such a beautiful Sunday morning, perfect for running a few errands. This is the first time I’ve been allowed outside the dorms on my own since the mall incident in first year. But now that I'm a third-year and have a provisional hero’s license, I feel like I can trust myself not to die.
I roll out of bed, not wanting to leave the comfortable position I was in.
Now I just got to shower, get dressed and go to the store to get my limited edition edgshot themed chocolate bar that I've been dreaming about.
I groggily get up from face-planting on the floor groaning, I walked around the room picking up all the things I need for a shower as I step out of my room to make my way to the communal washrooms I bump into someone closing the door behind them.
Hey kiri what are you doing coming out of Bakugo’s room?
Huh? Nothing, we were just studying.
I look down at my watch, it was 7:00 am
But it's 7am, what are you doing up so early on a weekend? You're normally still asleep.
Turning red, Kirishima ducked his head in embarrassment
You know me, I just wanted to get some extra studying in before the midterms
Yea right, Izuku thought to himself
That makes sense, well it was nice talking to you Kirishima-kun I'm off to shower and say hi to kacchan for me. Said Izuku winking.
He left Kirishima spluttering in the hallway.
Izuku had known that Kacchan would end up with Kirishima since the first year, when he was able to make friends with the explosive blond on the first day of UA.
*sigh*Finally, I'm here
Ohh, there's no one here, just how I like it. Izuku said, looking around.
Izuku hops into the shower and uses up all the hot water(:3 he he)
Uggg I need to cut my hair, my bangs are getting way too long. He said tieing his hair up.
Izuku's hair had grown past his shoulders down to his mid-back,It's still as curly as ever and constantly gets in his way. He also had a growth spur back in 2nd year and shot up to a reasonable six feet.
And done, now just got to get dressed then I can head out
I'll get something to eat on my way back from the store.
As Izuku was getting ready, he couldn't help it as his mind drifted to how excited he was for his chocolate bar.
Izuku quickly made his way to his room to get his wallet and phone.
He turned on his location just in case.
He then made his way out of the dorm and towards the grocery store, it was only five minutes away.
I'm glad I woke up earlier than everyone else so that I can take a quick trip and be right back before everyone wakes up
I think ochako mentioned something about a movie night tonight.
a loud scream snap Izuku back to reality
What was that??
He paused to listen and heard another scream
- help me help me !!!-
Without thinking, Izuku turned around and darted in the direction of the screaming. Once he got there, he stumbled across a man holding a woman at knife point and with a kid hiding behind a dumpster clearly noticeable.
The woman has long blonde hair and big brown doe eyes, she was wearing office attire which suggests she was on her way to work she looked to be in her early twenties. And the boy hiding behind the dumpster has Shaggy brown hair with gray eyes that almost seem black. He has a basic t-shirt and shorts on, he seems to be five or six years old judging by the size of him there's also a bag full of cans and all sorts of groceries thrown across the alleyway.
*Whisper*Shit shit what am I supposed to do I don't have any of my gear?
Aizawa Sensei was right, I really am a trouble magnet. Said Izuku as he creeped closer to the boy
Pst hey kid
Who are you? The kid said sniffling
I'm the hero Deku and I'm going to save you.
*Snif*really you'll help us. The kid said as he stopped crying
Yea I am here.he said in his best all might voice
Wow, like all might. The kid said, voice filled with awe.
Chuckling Izuku said, yea like allmight., what's your name kid?
Ka-kazua takahashi
Ok kazua, I'm going to need you to do something for me. Should I really be calling him kid when I'm also a kid, anyway it doesn’t matter, I have to focus on the task at hand.
Alright Mr Deku, what do I need to do?
Mr deku do I realy look that old.I'm going to district the vilaian,and when he has his attention on me I'll need you and that woman to run as far as you can then call the police. Can you do that for me?
Ye-yes.The kid said voice quivering
Ruffling his hair.good stay hidden for me.
Izuku squares off with the villain in a narrow alley. Sparks of green lightning crackle over his arms as Full Cowling activates.
The villain smirks throwing the lady in the direction of kazua. “You really think you can stop me, kid? Go home before you get hurt.”
Izuku lunges, fist pulled back. His punch is fast and full of power—
But it passes right through the villain’s chest as it splits open into a swirling black hole.
The villain laughs, twisting his arm around an open void in his shoulder and lands a hit across Izuku’s jaw. Izuku stumbles, skidding across the pavement.
“Shit,” Izuku mutters, wiping blood from his lip. “He can redirect limbs and avoid damage… gotta time it right.”
The villain turns his attention back to the hostage — the woman still frozen in fear with Kazua, trembling behind a dumpster.
From behind cover, Kazua watches with wide eyes. He’s crying, shaking, his little fists clenched.
The villain starts walking toward the woman, smirking. “This one’s coming with me.”
“No… no…” Kazua whispers. “Stop… stop it…”
Suddenly, the air wraps around him. Gravity shifts. Pebbles float. The dumpster rattles. Kazua’s Quirk Activated out of fear as Izuku came running in front of the trembling woman and kid.
The villain raised a hand, fingers curling into claws, but he barely got the chance to move.
Kazua’s eyes widened, a wave of pure panic overtaking him.
“STOP IT!!!”
BOOM.
The air around Izuku twisted violently. Gravity surged outward in a shockwave — the sound of metal crunching, glass shattering, and the world folding inward on itself for a split second.
Izuku had just made it in front of Kazua and the woman, arms spread out to protect them.
He turned his head just as the wave hit him.
“Wait—”
The words didn’t even finish before he was swallowed by the pull of Kazua’s out-of-control quirk.
Silence.
The air was still.
Izuku blinked his eyes open slowly, his vision blurry and washed in golden sunlight. He was lying in a soft field of long grass, the sky above a brilliant blue with wispy clouds drifting lazily overhead.
Birds chirped nearby. A soft breeze brushed over his face.
“What… the hell…” he muttered, groaning as he sat up. His limbs ached like he’d been hit by a truck. Or, apparently, a gravity shockwave.
He looked around.
Nothing but wide-open space. A field of green as far as the eye could see.
No villain. No Kazua. No woman. No alley. No chocolate bar.
“No… no, no, no…” he mumbled, patting his sides frantically like he might somehow still have the bar tucked away. “I didn’t even get to the store yet!”
He flopped back into the grass dramatically.
“I saved a kid. Got decked by a tiny human black hole. And now I’m in the middle of nowere with zero chocolate to show for it…”
He sighed deeply, staring up at the sky.
“…Aizawa-sensei’s definitely gonna put me on dorm restriction again.”
A cloud passed over the sun, casting a shadow on his face. Izuku reached up toward it lazily.
“That chocolate bar better be worth all this when I find my way back…”
