Summary: There is just one thing a little different in Katsuki's mindset. So what if Izuku doesn't have a quirk? He is still better than everybody else. And those who say different will get an explosion to their face.

New/old story! Decided to post it here too since I like this AU though I never actually finish writing out all the ideas I have. I think the idea of Katsuki thinking that everybody besides him and Izuku were stupid, is pretty interesting as it would change a lot. So ye. Basically Katsuki is 200% more gay and protective and beating bullies up.

Not sure if Izuku will get a quirk as both could be pretty interesting. Oh well.

"Your quirk is amazing, it makes you special."

Ever since Katsuki had gotten his quirk, his mother's words spun in his head. He couldn't quite grasp the concept of being special yet. He knew his quirk was stronger than most of his classmates' but did that really make him special, better than the rest? And what about Izuku? He didn't have his quirk yet and they had sworn to be hero partner later on.

Though, he had heard what the adults said when they thought neither of them were listening.

He heard their awful, terrible lies.

"Maybe he is quirkless."

"He definitely is."

"What a shame."

"Such a disappointment for his mother."

And they had made it sound like Izuku was worthless because he didn't have a quirk.

It made Katsuki angry. So, so angry he wanted to burn those stupid adults!

Izuku was amazing. He always stood up for the weaker kids, even those who had quirks already. He was very smart, smarter than Katsuki and always did his best and worked three times as hard as everybody else. The adults were the idiots if they couldn't see how great his friend was.
Maybe Katsuki was special and better than anybody else, but then Izuku was just the same.
The boy nodded, affirming his thoughts, before grabbing his bag and walking out of the classroom. In front of the school he waited for his friend and future hero partner to come. When Izuku still wasn't there after ten minutes, Katsuki started to worry. It was weird, Izuku was never late. He was usually rather early than late and he was never later than exactly on time!

It was then that he heard the voices of his classmates, those he filed under "idiots", coming from somewhere on the school's left side.

Confidently he walked around the school, hoping Izuku wasn't there too. He knew how much those idiots liked to pick on the smaller boy and Katsuki definitely wasn't having any of that.

Nobody was allowed to hurt Izuki, ever. Katsuki was going to make sure of that.

It didn't take long to spot Izuki standing behind the taller idiots. The boy wasn't cowering at all, standing stall and like a rock while the others insulted him. Said he was worthless and that nobody would ever be his friend and his parents probably hated him too. They hadn't done anything worse yet, but as soon as he saw the older kids push Izuku around, something within him snapped. He ran to them, warmth building up and the want to burn. They wanted, no, they had hurt Izuku and they would pay for it.

"Leave him alone!" he screamed, his right fist up in the air to defeat those villains, and then he ran up to them.

The children turned around, first looking annoyed but then fear slowly crept onto their faces. The smallest of them, who was still so much taller than Izuku, let out a slight scream for which their 'leader' kicked him.

"What do you want, Katsuki?!" the brunet shouted.

But the blonde didn't listen. With the same speed, no, even faster, he ran towards them. The bullies jumped away the last second so that Katsuki came to a hold directly in front of Izuku. He spun around, protectively placing himself in front of his friend. The bullies looked afraid and Katsuki couldn't suppress a grin. They should be, after all they tried to hurt Izuku. He would show them-

"Kacchan, please don't", Izuku tugged at his shirt. Katsuki slightly turned his head to look at the smaller boy.

"Why?!" he demanded.

"Because we are the heroes and heroes endure and protect", Izuku answered, using all those words he heard in the reports about heroes.

Katsuki's fist was still raised as the bullies ran away.

Izuku that stupid Deku just smiled up at Katsuki and hold out his hand. It should be the other way round, Katsuki thought. He should hold out his hand and let Izuku take it. But the smaller child wasn't having any of it, he lead without being a leader. Never giving commands, always asking and being so damn nice that you just had to do what he asked you to do.

It was fine, Katsuki guessed as he took the offered hand. Izuku was better than him dealing with people anyway. It was another kind of leading than the one Katsuki saw himself doing. Katsuki would lead the heroes to their victory over the villains while Izuku would lead the people away from danger, the civilians and the heroes too. A match made in heaven. Laughing the two of them ran home, playing a game of tag while they were at it.

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed this first chapter! Updates will be pretty spontaneous!
