Chapter Text
Izuku groaned, feeling the floor beneath him, cold and solid.
“Note to self, let Fiver attempt to timeline travel after I leave the burrow.” He said, sitting up and rubbing his face.
He looked around the room and realized he didn't recognize where he was.
“Roaar?” He asked the open air, “Where are we?”
“I don't know.” The kwami admitted, looking around as well.
It wasn't that the place was wholly unfamiliar, in fact that was part of why It was so disconcerting. Because those were definitely his things, his posters, his figures, even his notebooks although a few were missing.
But this was definitely not his room.
The greenette stood up and went over to the window.
He recognized where they were immediately.
“UA?” He asked, looking at his school confused. “When did I get here? Why is my stuff here?”
He didn't even remember a building on this side of campus. Izuku hurried out of the room his stuff was apparently in, Roaar diving into his jacket as they went, and found he was in what appeared to be a dorm of some kind. Rooms with nametags of his classmates lined the walls.
An elevator took him to the bottom floor and he found- they looked like his class but also not. Something just rang differently about them.
“Ah Midoriya, good we were worried you had slept through your alarm.” Iida greeted, holding a cup of coffee.
But it couldn't be Iida, Iida had a scar on his cheek, one he'd refused to let anyone heal. From the night they fought Stain, almost unnoticeable to those who didn't know what to look for. A reminder of what happened when he couldn't tell anyone, Pollen had said.
“Where the hell am I?” Izuku said, shifting his weight into a defensive stance, eyes narrowing. The whole room went silent and all eyes turned to him.
“And where the fuck is my class?”
+x+
Izuku woke up in his bed, fluffed his hair with one hand and walked to the kitchen.
“Morning mom!” He chirped, seeing his mother making herself breakfast. “Anything interesting at work for today?”
“Nothing to report-” She said, turning to face him. “Izuku?”
He paused, wondering if he had something on his face, surely Tikki wouldn't have sharpied him right?
“What happened to your scar?” She asked cupping his cheeks as she peered at his face. “It's gone!”
“What scar?” He asked as she pulled up his sleeves to check his arms.
“Mama-doriya, can I have some cheese?” Came a sleepy voice and Izuku jumped as a kwami he had never seen before floated into the room. This one had large round gray ears and buck teeth.
A mouse kwami? Why was it here? How did it know mom?
The creature's pink eyes settled on Izuku and its eyes widened.
“Uh oh-”
+x+
Izuku had woken up sharply and immediately jumped to his feet, this wasn't his apartment- it was a room covered in All Might merch- stuff he would never have been able to have.
“Nooroo?” He asked, and his kwami emerged from his pocket, looking around.
“Izuku!?” Someone shouted and he spun around to meet the bright blue eyes of another kwami. “You found Nooroo!? How?!”
The kwami shot forward to embrace the lilac butterfly and Izuku stared confused.
Why on earth did he have the Ladybug kwami? He’d forgone that route early on back when the miraculous were just thoughts and fairytale.
A moment seemed to pass between the two ancient beings as Izuku took in his surroundings.
“Tikki, is it?” He asked, pulling open a wardrobe and finding an assortment of clothes and oddly enough a UA uniform.
“Oh my,” She said, putting a hand to her mouth. “You're not mine-”
+x+
“Please! I just want to know where I am!!!” Izuku yelled as a hero he'd never seen before threw spines that grew from their back at him.
Izuku narrowly dodged them by flipping midair.
He’d been rudely awakened in an apartment he didn't recognize. One second he'd been dozing between his partners for a movie marathon, the next he was surrounded by plants he didn’t own.
Mom was nowhere in sight, his phone was gone and he couldn’t figure out where Momo and Shoto had gone.
“Surrender Glasswing!” The hero, well he assumed hero, he supposed they could just be a very official looking villain.
“I don’t know what that is!” Izuku shouted back, flying as fast as his wings could carry him.
He needed to get back to school, if nothing else so this crazy guy couldn’t follow him.
When the gates of UA finally appeared Izuku narrowly avoided crash landing on the other side.
The gates themselves slammed shut, locking the hero out.
Izuku sighed in relief, staring at the sky and trying to catch his breath.
He relaxed a little more when Mr. Aizawa and Ms. Midnight appeared over him.
“I would like to start with none of that being my fault!” He began, seeing their stern expressions. “He just started chasing me.”
The two teachers shared a look, one that he couldn’t decipher, with his non-homeroom teacher reaching for her sleeve.
He had enough time to realize what Ms. Midnight was doing before the world went black.
+x+
Izuku was not in his dorm, neither the room nor the common area as he first assumed when realizing he had fallen asleep on a couch.
He’d promptly tipped over when he realized he was sprawled across two of his classmates, Yaoyorozu’s head resting on his chest and Todoroki’s legs sprawled across the two of them.
He screamed as he fell, hitting the floor with a thud which unsurprisingly woke the other two.
“Izuku?” Todoroki was the first to react, already snapped to full attention as soon as he’d yelled. “What’s wrong?”
Yaoyorozu was a little more groggy, but she looked around as if for danger.
“Ah haha!” Izuku said, turning red at the ears as the implication fully set in that he’d been sleeping in a pile with his classmates. “We are at your house!”
Now he realized he knew this place, he’d been to Yaoyorozu’s once for a study session with the whole class before finals.
“Yeah, movie night?” She narrowed her eyes, “are you feeling okay?”
“Just fine!” He said quickly, “We should get ready for school.”
The two shared a look and Izuku grabbed his backpack, which had a keychain he didn’t recognize on it, and ran into the bathroom to change.
He stared at himself in the mirror, and mentally checked what was wrong with this picture.
First, he woke up cuddling two of his classmates. Todoroki wasn’t the most physically affectionate, but sitting next to each other at least made enough sense. But he’d not so muched hugged Yaoyorozu before.
Second, apparently the two of them had been invited for movie night.
Third, his bag was different, he couldn’t think of why he’d have so many juice boxes or sweets in plastic bags. His hand weights and cream he used for his scars had vanished, and there was a purple charm on one of the straps that he’d never seen. It wasn’t the kind of thing he’d usually have.
Fourth, his uniform was too small! It was tighter around his arms than he’d ever had before!
Had he forgotten something?
“Hey guys-” He stepped out and froze. There were two small things that looked like little bugs staring at him. “AGH!”
He screamed and slammed the door shut.
“Izuku?!” His classmates said, bangining on the door. “What’s wrong?! Are you alright?”
“What on earth are those?!?!” he shouted back.
The yellow bug thing stuck her head through the door, like through the wood.
“Oh- oh my. Tikki, could I get your opinion on this?”
The red thing also phased through the door. “Hmm- that’s certainly odd.”
“What are you?” The teen shouted, holding the door shut and having to use his quirk since the others were pounding so hard on it.
“I’m sorry to have startled you, but we are kwami.” the red thing- Tikki explained. “And you are not from this world.”
