Origins: Part I
Afternoon - Unknown Rooftop
Izuku Midoriya was still trying to get control of his breathing. He had just flown through the sky after grabbing onto All Might's leg. The aforementioned hero looked down on the timid student with his trademark smile. What the boy didn't know was that behind that smile, was a very stressed out man. 'Izu... why did it have to be you? Your mother and I always told you to take the safe route home. It doesn't matter now, he did want to know something.'
"You said you wanted to ask me something, my boy? I must ask that you hurry because I need to get this villain to the authorities!" He asked, with a smile. The Green-haired boy managed to compose himself before he spoke up.
"W-Well y-you see... Mr. All Might sir, I'm a very big fan of you... and I've always wanted to be a hero just like you!" He said trying to sound confident, but was still very shy. "The only problem is... is that I'm quirkless." All Might looked down at the boy, still hiding how he truly felt.
"Izu... Please... don't say it... I don't want to go to war with myself..." He thought. Izuku took the silence as the que to continue.
"With that being said... Can I still be a hero without a quirk?" He asked with a small look of hope in his eye. That look broke All Might, otherwise known as Toshinori Yagi. He loved his son but knew he couldn't let his feelings cloud his judgement. He knew what he had to say.
'Please forgive me... Izu.'
"I'm sorry my boy... but you can't be a hero without a quirk. It's far too dangerous. It's very dangerous for those who have quirks already, but for you... I'm sorry, but no way." He said in an apologetic tone. The looked back at his son, who had all traces of hope disappear completely. "But there are plenty of other jobs you can do that are heroic! Like a police officer or a fireman!" He said, trying to restore the hope that had been lost. He failed.
"Oh... All right... I understand." Was all he said in response. This sight broke the hero father, who desperately wanted to tell his son the truth about who he and his wife were, the truth behind his quirk, everything. But he knew he couldn't put a power like One For All at risk due to his emotions. He then realized that he was almost out of time, and that he had to take his leave.
"Now then... I must continue my work. It was nice meeting you Young Midoriya!" He said as he took flight again. The boy just quietly gathered himself and exited the building back onto the streets. He was about to head home when he heard explosions and screaming. He ran to a nearby alleyway to see the same slime villain that had tried to kill him earlier. He looked around and noticed that all the heroes weren't doing anything. He then heard muffled shouting and saw his bully entangled in the villain.
'Why aren't the pros doing anything?' Izuku thought. He overheard them saying that they couldn't do anything. ' If they're not going to do anything, then I will! I will be a hero!' He thought as he was about to make his move until a very familiar "DETROIT SMASH!" was heard. The slime villain exploded into many pieces, thus freeing Bakugou from his prison. As the villain was apprehended, Izuku saw that many of the heroes who stood around were commending Bakugou for his bravery and strong quirk. Deku twitched a little unknowingly before heading back home.
'Izu's friend Bakugou has potential. He has a strong quirk and determination. If I train him right, he will make the perfect successor to One For All...'
After ten minutes of walking, Izuku made it to the entrance of his neighborhood. He couldn't wait to get home. His mother and father weren't home often and felt he needed the support after his revelation. As he approached his street, he stopped when he heard two familiar voices...
BAKUGOU
'GOD DAMN! What a day! I got commended by a bunch of extras for my powerful quirk. I could tell even All Might himself saw greatness in me! There is nothing to stop me from becoming the Number One hero!' Bakugou thought as he walked back to his lavish house.
"Hey Bakugou!" An abnormally thin man called out.
"Oh. Hey Yagi, been a while." Unlike their son, Bakugou could actually tolerate the boy's parents, perhaps more than his own. He honestly thought Deku wasn't worthy of them most of the time.
"Bakugou, I have to talk to you about something. It's important." He said in a serious tone.
'Damn you Deku... I swear to God if you told em something...' Bakugou thought while nodding.
"What I am about to say stays between us. Do not say a word about this to anyone. Understand?" He said in a serious manner. Bakugou only nodded once again.
"What is this?" He asked confused as Yagi stepped away from him, steam beginning to erupt from his body.
"It doesn't matter now. You know why?" He asked, moments before exploding into steam. Bakugou closed his eyes out of instinct. When he opened them back up. He saw a large, muscular man, his hero.
"BECAUSE I AM HERE!"
Bakugou was awestruck. All Might was standing right before him. 'There is no way... Deku's dad is All Might! Does that mean he saw my greatness?'
All Might then explained One For All and the truth about him and his wife, the Psi Hero: Hive Mind. Bakugou was awestruck.
"After seeing your abilities today, I have deemed you my top candidate for my quirk. If you can prove yourself as a U.A first year, I will pass this torch to you. I will train you myself, so meet me at the beach tomorrow and we'll get started." Bakugou's confidence was at an all time high, but a question still lingered.
"Wait... Doesn't De-Izuku know about this? And shouldn't he also be in consideration?He is your son." He said, trying to sound considerate.
"I thought about it, but I decided no. He doesn't have what it takes. He's far too weak and lacks a quirk." All Might said with a hint of pain in his voice. "And no, he doesn't know." Bakugou frowned but was smirking on the inside.
'Not even your own family will cover you Deku... How pathetic.' He thought. All Might turned away and started walking, but turned around again.
"Don't worry about the entrance exams, young Bakugou." All Might said. "I'll submit you through recommendations!" He said as he walked away. Bakugou just stood still for a minute and smirked before going back to his house. Unbeknownst the them, a certain someone overheard the entire thing.
IZUKU
He just stood there, frozen and speechless. He couldn't believe this. His own father denied him his dream while he just gave it to his bully. He was feeling something... It had been building up for years now, and he didn't even know it until now. He understood what this feeling was...
RAGE.
'Dad... Mom... You lied to me.' He thought as he finally picked his feet up and walked back to his house. He opened the door to see his parents greeting him, but didn't even bother sparing them a glance. He went up to his room and locked the door. The first thing he did was tear up every single piece of All Might merchandise he had and dispose of it. This was not something that could be forgiven for him. He even slammed down a family photo on his desk, not even wanting to see them. After that he curled up into a ball and sobbed. He eventually passed out before he could notice that for a brief moment...
HIS HANDS WERE MOLTEN ORANGE.
(A/N: Hey. I'm rewriting this story. I figured this route made more sense, and had an origin similar to Xanxus himself. As some of you may have noticed, this sounds allot like the book LEGENDARY by Promethianknight117. I apologize for mocking you but this was the only way. I may use this chapter in other stories because anything could spawn for this, but that'll be another day. See ya 'round.)
