Chapter 1: OriginChapter TextHis name is Izuku Midoriya, he was born powerless in a world where eighty percent of people have a special ability called of some kind called a quirk.
Government sanctioned heroes stop those who would use their quirks for evil, Villains. With the greatest Hero of all time standing at the number one spot of Hero rankings, All Might.
Izuku wants to be a hero. If he had to sum up who he was in six words, it would be those. Most people who know him or know of him think he would be better suited to a career in science, seeing how much he excels in it.
But Izuku's want to help others directly has always overridden any sort of logic in his mind.
"Izuku, get up! You're gonna be late if you stay in your room any longer! And I know you don't want to miss this field trip!" His mother, Inko shouted from the other room.
"Sorry Ma, I'll be out in a second!" Izuku yelled back.
"Are you still working on that glue?" Inko inquired while boxing Izuku's lunch for the day.
He huffed while glaring through a microscope, "It's not just GLUE mom, it's an adhesive that's supposed to rubberize on selective-"
"It sounds like glue to me!" Inko interuppted.
Izuku finally threw on his signature red shoes and leaped out of his room, adjusting his glasses so they wouldn't fall off his face.
"I wanted to get it done to show the scientist on the field trip but I guess I'm out of time" Izuku said sadly. "... time, TIME! What time is it?! I'm gonna be too late to catch the bus!" Izuku screamed frantically.
"Isn't that, what I just said?" Inko replied with a deadpan face and voice.
"I'll see you when I get back mom, love you!" He quickly uttered while grabbing his lunch and kissing her on the forehead.
The bus was already past his house and he had to run to try and catch it, "HEY, STOP THE BUS, PLEASE!" Luckily, Izuku had tons of experience running, given how much he was bullied. It was kind of sad when he thought about it that way, though.
Eventually the bus driver took pity on the green haired kid and stopped to let him on.
"...Thank- ...You" Izuku spoke between gasps.
"Yeah whatever kid, take your seat." The bus driver responded.
"Seriously, Deku? You can't even wait for a bus right?"
"This might be a new low for you midoriya"
"Give him a break, the string bean is just trying to get some exercise!"
Izuku heard jeers all around him but he ignored them, if not because of willpower then for his own sanity. No one would let Izuku sit next to them. Because no one wants to sit next to the quirkless kid... But eventually izuku was fortunate enough to find a seat! Unfortunately, it was across from the classmate who treated him the worst, Katsuki Bakugo.
"Deku! Are you trying to make me look stupid?!" The explosive blonde bellowed.
"H-How would that even??" Izuku started in confusion.
"IF EVERYONE SEES HOW STUPID YOU ARE, THEY'LL THINK EVERYONE ELSE IN THE BUS IS AN IDIOT TOO!"
"Your logic is blowing my mind right now" Izuku whispered under his breath.
"WHAT'D YOU SAY YOU DAMN NERD?!"
"Uh, nothing!" Izuku quickly winced in fear.
Bakugo wasn't always this cruel to Izuku, but when he got his quirk and Izuku didn't, he started to seriously look down on his green haired friend until eventually, they weren't friends at all.
But Izuku couldn't get lost in the past or what might have been, He was going to the best laboratory on this side of Japan! This would be a day to remember!
As their guide for the tour took them throughout the facility Izuku couldn't help his excitement.
The guide began, "This facility is the third-"
"MOST ADVANCED IN THE COUNTRY, RIGHT BEHIND HORIZON AND OSCORP, THE ROXXON CORPORATION FOCUSES ON ENERGY ABOVE ALL ELSE AND THE DIFFERENT TYPES THAT CAN BE MOLDED INTO HELPING CREATING A BETTER FUTURE-" Izuku interuppted before being cut off himself,
"Ah Yes, Mr Midoriya, correct? Here at Roxxon we're always scouting talent, and I hear you're quite the little genius." The guide said.
"O-oh I don't know about that-" Izuku rubbed the back of his head with a shy chuckle.
"I also hear that you're disruptive and cause issues amongst your class!" The guide continued angrily.
Izuku didn't have much to say after that.
"Nice going Deku, the one thing you're a little less useless in, and you screwed that up too!" Bakugo sneered while shoulder checking Izuku.
No one in the room noticed the black widow spider crawling along the ceiling
"Now before I was interrupted, I was going to ask you all if you'd like a demonstration on what a radioactive fusion laser looks like when in use." The guide wondered with smug pride.
The students vehemently nodded their heads, who doesn't want to see a laser light show?
"Okay, start the test!" The guide shouted as behind glass, the black widow spun itself down into the path of the laser right as it started up.
Colors flashed between the two ends of the device pointing to each other, blasting the arachnid with green and cyan radiation and making an alarm sound off.
"THERE'S BEEN A CHANGE IN THE SILICON MASS, THE TEST IS UNSTABLE!" One of the scientist shouted in panic.
"EVERYONE GET DOWN!"
The glass exploded, and the spider was sent flying onto Izuku's hand, biting into it as it landed,
"AGH!"
When the commotion started to die down the guide looked around with some small panic, gritting his teeth.
"Is everyone alright?" He asked begrugingly.
To which Izuku responded by falling to his knees and throwing up violently on the floor.
"Ewww"
"What a scaredy cat!"
"Pathetic."
"Midoriya." The teacher finally asked, "Do you think you're going to be alright?" But Izuku couldn't hear him over the overwhelming noise EVERYTHING was making.
Beeping, whirring, machines. The laughs from his classmates, the ticking of clocks- he had to get out of there right that moment!
He pushed past his teacher and ran out of the facility doors.
"Shouldn't you go after him?" The guide asked the teacher.
To which he responded, "Did you see how fast he ran out? He's probably just embarrassed. I don't blame him."
Izuku was still running, he didn't know to where to, but he had to get away from all the-
*CAR*
Izuku turned his head to see a red SUV barreling towards him.
And he jumped thirty feet into the air and onto a wall to avoid it.
"HEY!" someone shouted.
at Him?
"YEAH, YOU!" It was a police officer on the ground.
"I'm glad you didn't get hit by that car, kid. But NO public quirk use!" The officer wagged his finger.
Izuku ripped himself from the wall, stumbling down to his feet and onto his rear as he stared up in disbelief.
"I'm- I'm sorry, I didn't-"
"Yeah, Yeah I'll let it slide this time, but watch both sides of the street next time!" The man complained with a tired sigh.
"Yes sir, sorry sir!" Izuku said, quickly running off.
Izuku ran home, ready to be done with this strenuous day, and as he got to his door-
Something in his head was telling him there were two people in the apartment, he knew his mom should be home and they NEVER had visitors!
"MOM?!" He screamed, breaking the door off it's hinges.
"Izuku? Where have you been? The school called and said you ran off after an accident on the field trip!" She said hysterically, making Izuku's head bow in shame.
"We were so worried!"
Izuku stared with confusion. "We?"
"What, just because I've been gone a while means I can't fret about my son?" Another voice said with joy.
Izuku couldn't believe it, his mouth gaping wide before curving into a smile as he launched himself forward.
"DAD!" Izuku's eyes almost immediately started watering as he threw himself at his father, "It's been so long!"
"I know kid, I know. And I can't wait to hear what you've been up to!" Hisashi's nose twitched and he made a face. "...But you smell like puke, hit the showers."
As Izuku got dressed after cleaning, he thought about the day he had, and the part he somehow almost forgot about.
He'd been quirkless as long as he could remember, but after the field trip-
He paced a little in disbelief as he thought back.
Izuku thought he was cut by glass on his hand, but when looking down he could see two dots, not unlike a bug bite...
He had jumped a mile into the sky.
Not to mention how he stuck to a wall!
Izuku's eyes widened again as he stared between his palm and the poster of All Might stuck on his wall.
He stuck to the wall...
He walked over to his wall, carefully took down the all might poster that was there, and put one hand on the wall.
then his left,
then his right again,
left,
right,
left-
And he was on the ceiling.
STICKING there without falling!
"IZUKU! YOU NEED TO EAT AND HELP YOUR FATHER FIX THIS DOOR!" His mother called from outside his room.
As Izuku looked down at his bedroom from the ceiling with a smile on his face all he could think to say was-
"I'LL BE DOWN IN A SECOND!"
