Skoko was falling.

           Down

                             Down

                                                 Down

She passed her classroom. She heard screams from inside it. As she neared the ground, she felt no regret. This is what people wanted of her, right? While she fell, though, she thought about her siblings. Ochako. Her childhood friend Momo that always comes over. But all of a sudden there was a crash.

"Nullify!" Shoko looked around. A boy with green hair was falling next to her. He touched her arm. "Don't worry," the boy said. "You'll be ok. Release!" He started to fall faster. Shoko stared at him.

"Are you crazy?!" She yelled. The boy flipped to his back.

"Are you?" he yelled back. "What're you jumping off roofs for?"

"Do you not know what suicide is?!" Shoko told the boy. The boy raised an eyebrow.

"Course I do," He said. "But I can tell your heart isn't fully in the action of going to the gods" They neared the ground. The boy reached it first. He rolled on his shoulder so as not to break himself. People screamed. He looked at Shoko. "I'm gonna catch you"

"Huh?! Not in a million years buster" she said.

"Do you trust me?"

"I-"

"Do you trust me?!"

"...Oh can it with the Disney" she grumbled. The boy smiled. He jumped up into the air and caught her. Shoko rolled her eyes. They reached the ground, their fall nullified by the boy's Quirk. He looked at Shoko. "Put me down you psychopath"

"Ok" The teenage boy said as he set her down. She smoothed her skirt down, and fell. "So why did you jump?"

"Why'd you save me?" she said. The boy held out a hand. Shoko looked at the boy with a glare, though she wasn't actually that mad. The emerald eyed boy laughed and said nothing else. "...if I were to tell you, you'd regret saving me"

"I don't think so," the boy said. "Give me 3 reasons why I'd regret it"

"1. I'm an absolute disappointment to my family, 2. I'm the cause of my brother's death, And 3. I'm Quirkless" Shoko counted on her fingers. The boy frowned.

"So?" He asked. Shoko stared at the boy like he was crazy- actually, he probably was crazy. "I'm a family disappointment and my friends are literal Psychos" Shoko was tackled in a hug by Ochako running out. "And the Quirkless thing could be easily fixed" he turned to Ochaco. "Uraraka-san, here you go!" He held out his hand and put it on her shoulder. There was a flash of pink light like Ochako's Quirk getting activated. The brown haired girl looked at her hands and touched her tenderals. They floated up, gravity disappearing from the clumps of hair. She put her fingers together. The hair fell down. She stared at Midoriya.

"How'd you do that?" She said. Shoko looked between the teenagers.

"Wait, what happened?" The heterochromatic girl asked. The boy smiled.

"I just borrowed Uraraka-san's Quirk for a while" he said. Shoko stared.

"How?"

"It's my Quirk," the boy said brightly. "Course It has side effects, but it's very useful, no?" He turned fully to Shoko. "Oh, I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself!" He said. "I'm Izuku Midoriya!"

"Shoko Todoroki," Shoko replied. "Nice to meet you Midoriya" Almost immediately after the rescue, the press arrived. Shoko's least favorite people. "Oh for the love of Amaterasu"

"Gods no" Midoriya muttered before diving into the crowd. Shoko looked for a place to escape to before being grabbed by Midoriya and pulled into the crowd. "Come on! Or do you want your attempted suicide story on the news?"

"I'm following! I'm following!" Shoko grumbled. "You're so pushy!" The girl and boy ran through the crowd, weaving in and out of the standing people and escaping into an alleyway. "We made it"

"Thank you Hiruko" Midoriya thanked the god of luck. He turned to Shoko. "Now, what do you wanna do?"

"I'm sorry, what?" Shoko asked. "I don't even know you" She looked at Midoriya's eyes, a beautiful M&M green. "And you don't know me" She turned and started walking away.

"But I do, Shoko Todoroki, Youngest daughter of the number 2 Hero Endeavor" Shoko whipped around. Midoriya smiled sinisterly. "Age 15, Quirkless, 4 siblings, ages 25, 21, 18, and 5, 3 brothers, 1 sister" Shoko took a step away and fell backwards, now sitting on the cracked sidewalk. Midoriya leaned down. "Mother Rei Todoroki, currently staying in downtown Hosu city's hospital because of mental instability after abuse from her husband, Quirk Ice, Father Enji Todoroki, Quirk Fire" Shoko scrambled away.

"How do you know all of this?!" She exclaimed, back pressed against the alley wall. Midoriya smiled.

"I saw you a few years ago, and you caught my curiosity" His eyes were cold and dead. "Earlier you asked me why I saved you," He leaned closer to Shoko's face. "I believe that now you have your reason" Shoko felt the color leave her face.

"Th-That's not a reason" she said, stuttering. "Wh-Why did you save me?"

"I wanted to see where you'd go in life," Midoriya said. "Fate says you're not ready to die" He bent down and put a hand on Shoko's shoulder. "I need you"

"Wh-What?"

"Prove your father wrong" Midoriya stood up and spread his arms out wide. "Write your own legacy!" He stopped smiling. "It's too late for me to change mine" He looked at the trembling girl on the ground. "So, do me a favor, and change yours for me" he offered a hand to Shoko. "Please?" Shoko hesitated. But she took the boy's outstretched hand and nodded. "Thank you so much Shoko-Chan!" Midoriya pressed something into the girl's hand before he turned and started away. He looked over his shoulder and smiled. "Oh, and Shoko? Don't forget to accept the gifts when they come your way!" He turned away and disappeared into the shadows. Shoko stood there, frozen in shock. She opened her hand. It was a key chain with two cats, one red and one white, with cute smiling faces and a green galaxy band. The disturbing part was that the two initials beads were Shoko's initials: S T. Shoko Todoroki.

What she should've done was throw it on the ground and never looked at it again. Instead, she took out her phone and clipped it to her phone case.
