Aldera Junior High - Wednesday - 10 am
(Izuku pov)
Today was I normal day, flowers are growing, birds are singing, katchan is yelling, we used to be the best of friends him and I, but when he got his quirck and I didn't, things changed.
He started to bully me, and soon, everyone joined him and he even changing my name without my permission, I was now "deku" the useless kid, a loser amongst gifted, and he reminded me that every single day, insulting me, punching me, excluding me from other. . .but after a few years, my brain started to just. . .cut his voice off same go with his face, I just, can't seem to recognise it, all that's left is a blurry mist only his red hateful eyes were left on me.
"Hey nerd! Are you listening!" I wasn't, did he noticed it? "On your stupide note book again? Didn't I tell you to quite that stupide hero dream? Deku!" He grabbed my note book out of my hands, I tried to reach out for it but he already exploited it into dust making him and all his friends laught. "Oops~" he smirked, how can he smile, all can all of them laught? I asked myself that so many time, but never got an answer and yet I still look for it. . .ho well. . .I'm gonna need to update my backups note book, I don't have a lot, everyone left when the bell ringed left so I should make a few others copies.
I reach out to grabe one of my backups to update them, but when I was about to start writing the note book floated out of my reach, again? I frowned as I tried to grabe it "Hey!" I said as I failed and the note book flew over my head "didn't bakugo just burned that note book?" The book land in the hand of a girl "Hu?" I said confused it was weird that anyone beside katchan would ever directly talk to me. "Is this all hero analyse?" She asked, I stand straight up, I wasn't ready for that, its been so long since I haven't hade a conversation with anyone but my mom, who even is she? Rectangular glass, brown tressed hair, serious slightly cold look, Masako! Masako Agathe, she sit in front of katchan "Hum yeah, I like to learn everything I can on heros" I tried to keep my voice as steady as possible even if she's probably gonna and up mocking me "those are pretty good" she said as she flip trought the pages it was hard to know if she means her words with her cold facades "you could be a journalist" Masako gived the note book back, I took it and slightly fidget with the edge of the note book, looking down at it "I don't want to be a journalist, I want to be a hero. . ." I was expecting the usual, without a quirk? You have no shot, just give up! But- "you sure are passionate, and you would be a better hero then bakugo that's for sur" she sighed "but he as an amazing quirk. . ." This ticked me off "do *you* wanna be a hero?"
Asked her she froze and giggle rubing the back of her neck "me? Nah, I don't have a good enough quirk for it, but I could be a photographer or a journalist" she want to be a hero too? Whats her quirk? I saw her make my note book levitate, levitation can be a powerful quirk. "You take pictures? Can I see?" She hesitated at first but she still brought her camera to us with her quirk making it float into her hand "don't break it, okay?" She joked, as she and it over to me, as I look into the gallery there was a lot of photos, beautiful photos, of landscape, people's but mostly heros in fights. "Wow! How did you take those?! Must've been dangerous!" I said completely fascinated until I saw a photo of all might and brightly smile "wow! That's all might!!!!" I quickly put my hand on front of my mouth clearly embarrassed "all might fan hu?" She laughed before I gave her back her camera "yeah" I brush the back of my neck embarrassed "I see where the hero dream come from" she smiled
"about that, you say your quirk isn't good enough to be a pro hero, but what's your quirk?" I hade an idea of what it was, but I still wanted to know more "I can pretty much make things float, I just need to see and remember what it looks like and I can make it float how ever I like, even if the speed and height can be hard to manage" so it is levitation! "But that's a really great quirk! It as I a lot of potential! You can be a real powerful hero!"
(3rd person)
Izuku unconsciously start to ramble about the potential of agathe's quirk and for once, he wasn't cut off telling his annoying no, agathe just listened and looked at him, she always tought her quirk was good enough next to people like bakugo but Izuku found so many point to prove her wrong, they didn't know each others, hell izuku could hate her, after all she was aware of him being bullied and never said anything and yet, he was being nice to her? She couldn't help a smile to grow on her face, that kid, "deku" he wasn't all that useless, we as actually really chill, the bell cut izuku off and both of them went back to their own place.
