At the sludge villain scene,
Afternoon...

Midoriya's POV

The crowds finally realized that the villain was the one chased by All Might. But then they started asking among themselves how did All Might lose him and I was the only one who knew about it...

I was the reason that villain fell from his pocket.

I clamped my mouth with my slightly sweaty palms, could not bear anymore to hear the crowds talking about All Might.

It is all my fault...! If only I did not get in the way of his work-

THIS WON'T HAPPEN!

My eyes then fixated back on the horrible scene. The villain and Kacchan were surrounded by flames, perharps Kacchan's Quirk caused this. My head suddenly started throbbing after a few moments of staring at the fiery flame. I held my head, hissing in pain.

An image... A blurry image appears in my mind... Everything was burning... Everything... The whole building...

I kept groaning in agonizing, unknown pain that attacked me out of nowhere. The image I was seeing was really blurry but I still could see flame, yeah, only flame.

W-What is the meaning of this...

"Help..." 

My eyes went slightly wide when I heard that weak, croaky voice in my mind. I shook my head to get rid of those thoughts, now my attention glued on then sludge villain. I got a full view of Kacchan's face at last and his expression...

Full of fear.

As soon as I saw his face, my notebook fell from my hands and my legs suddenly moved on their own, leading me to run toward the chaotic scene. I was breathing very heavily as I charged toward that criminal who restrained Kacchan. The heroes behind shouted calling me, thinking that I was crazy.

O-oh no, what should I do now?! Why did I run out?! What am I doing actually?!

Just why?!!!

"Die in an explosion!!!!" The sludge villain roared and swung his slimy arm to hit me.

What do I do? What do I do at a time like this?!

Wait! Page 25!!!

I discarded my backpack and threw it to the villain carelessly and proceeded to rush toward him. I started to dig in my fingers into the slime-like substance to get Kacchan out of the villain. "Kacchan!"

"Why are you here?!" Kacchan yelled at my face. "My legs moved on their own! I don't know why though!" I shouted in panic, still digging in my claws in attempt to help Kacchan. Tears leaked out of my green eyes.

“You looked like you were asking for help...”

I uttered those words and smiled even though I did not know the whole reason behind my action. "You little bastard!!!" The villain growled in anger, swinging his arm toward me once again. I closed my eyes very tightly, praying from the bottom of my heart for miracle to happen and helped me..

Help...

Bakugou's POV

I was fighting myself to death so that I did not let this sewage swallowed me! Like hell I would let it happen!

...when Deku suddenly came rushing toward me...

What is this nerd doing here actually?!

Deku shut her eyes tightly when that villain swung his arm toward her. And all of a sudden, greenish light shone from her whole body, blinding my eyes for a solid few seconds. "Help..." I heard her uttered in hopefulness.

What the hell is this light?! How did Deku do this?! She is Quirkless! Or it is the work of one of the heroes?!

This freaking villain stopped moving and his body melted down from me slowly. But then All Might appeared and he threw a heavy punch at the villain. "Detroit Smash!!!!" He yelled loudly, blowing the sludge away and he created a typhoon with only his right fist.

~After a few moments passed~

Third Person's POV

After the villain was defeated, Midoriya got majorly scolded by the pro heroes while Bakugou was praised because of his amazing toughness during the villain's fight. The greenette did not pay attention to the heroes' scolding at all due to the pain in her head. She could barely see anything. Her sight was blurry.

Bakugou was staring at his childhood friend all the time, a surge of weird feeling overwhelmed in him. Something about Midoriya seemed off to him yet he had no courage to ask about it. He then looked away and stayed silent, letting the reporter recording his face.

All Might was still being interviewed by the reporters but his eyes were not focused on the camera, but on a certain female greenette that caught his interest...

....

After the incident end,
In the neighbourhood area,
On way back home,
Late afternoon...

Midoriya's POV

I wanted to apologize to All Might but he is still getting interviewed... Maybe I will try sending him a message on his website when I get home.

More importantly, why did I feel very dizzy?

I sighed long thinking about my reckless action today as I kept walking, hanging my head low. "Deku!" A furious voice called me out. I turned my head to look at the direction it came from.

Kacchan...?

Kacchan was panting, his palms alreafy clenched into fists. "I never asked you for help! And you didn't help me, got it?! I was fine by myself! You are a Quirkless failure playing without a full deck! Don't think you can look down on me! Are you trying to make me owe you?! Don't you dare looo down on me, you damn nerd!!!" Kacchan hollered furiously before turning his heels and walked away from me.

I just stared at my childhood friend awkwardly but still, I agreed with what he said. I mustered a sad smile yet full of satisfaction, hanging my head low back. My mossy green hair fell forward, foresadowing my eyes.

Now I can think of a realistic future. I will tell Shiki-san about this once I reach home-

"I am here!!!!" A man's voice interupted my thoughts. I rose my head up and All Might was in front of me. "A-All Might?! Why are you here?! You were surrounded by reporters until just now..." I exclaimed in confusion, tilting my head a bit to my side.  All Might proudly laughed as his response.

"Getting away from them is a piece of cake. Why? Because I am All Migh--" All Might suddenly reverted to his deflated form, coughing blood as usual. And as usual too, I let out an ear-piercing shriek.

All Might wiped off the blood on his lips and stared at me. "Young lady, I come with thanks, a correction and a suggestion." He spoke up, sounding very serious. "If you had not been there... If you had not told me about your life... I would have turned into a guy in a bodysuit who was all talk. Thank you." The greatest hero I admired so much thanked me.

"That can't be... It was my fault in the first place. I got in the way of your work, and I said all of those impertinent things even though I'm Quirkless..." I denied him, and started thinking negative of myself.

Why did he thank me...? I was the reason that incident happen... I trouble everyone around me...

"You are right. It was because it was none other than the timid, Quirkless you at the scene that I was able to act." All Might's words surprised me. "Huh...?" I turned to look at him in silence.

"Top heroes have stories about them from their school days. Most of their stories have one thing in common; Their bodies moved before they had a chance to think." This time, my eyes sparkled a bit as I chewed on my bottom lip. My eyes slightly trembled, tears threatened to spill out. I clenched my hand into firm fists, my whole being shaking. My mind recalled my mother's words.

“I'm sorry, Izuku! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!”

I started to grip on my collar, tears started welling up in my  big emerald green eyes. "That was true for you, too, wasn't it?" All Might asked me. I sobbed softly and nodded my head as my answer, tears eventually trickled down.

Mom... Back then... That's not what I was hoping to hear from you... I badly wanted you to say...

I cried out and dropped on my knees slowly. The cold breeze began blowing gently.

“You can become a hero.” All Might uttered sincerely.

My cries became louder at this rate. At last... At last I heard the words I had been dying to hear. I gripped my uniform tigher, grinding my teeth. This was all I had berm hoping for. And now, I learnt the most important thing in my life....

Dreams can become reality...
