Prologue

Welcome everybody! Welcome, to the prologue of "Rising". You probably already read the summary but here are some important points:

Izuku will be inspired from Raiden from the MGS franchise.

Izuku will be a cyborg.

His personality will be edgier. OOC incoming.

His skillset will be like Raiden from the MGS franchise.

I doubt I will put MGS characters. Probably I will put only Sam, Wolf and Armstrong. But their back story will be different.

The pairing is probably going to be Mei. If you want another, PM me or leave it in the Reviews. And with all that said, let's start this story!

Legend:

"Talking."

'Thinking...'

"Computer Talking."

Prologue: Modifications

Izuku was dusting himself off, after Kachan and his friends beat him up.

Again.

This had been happening ever since he was diagnosed as quirkless some months ago. While everyone else already developed some, he will never have one.

With just those thoughts, he felt like crying. Why is the world like this? Why some are born with power while the rest must be left in the dust?

It isn't fair.

He decided to walk home. It was already dark and mom will get worried if he doesn't go back. He already gave her to many problems.

In his way home, he started to kick a rock. Like if it was a game. After one kick the rock hit softly the leg of a man. Izuku looked at the tall man with a scared look. "S-Sorry Mister." He apologized and the man chuckled.

"No need to apologize kid. It was an accident. Tell me, isn't it a little bit late to be here alone?" He asked and Izuku looked at his feet.

"I-I was g-going home..." He muttered and the man nodded.

"I see... so do you mind if I walk you home? The night can be dangerous." the man said and Izuku looked at him with a confused look.

"Mom told me to not speak with strangers."

"If that's the case, my name is Samuel Rodrigues. Nice to meet you." Samuel introduced himself and Izuku nodded with a small, shy, smile.

"I'm Izuku!" Samuel nodded

"I see. Now we are not strangers. So, can I walk you home?" Izuku thought about it before nodding.

"Okay!" And with that they both walked to the Midoriya's home.

"So, tell me, what's your quirk kid?" Samuel asked and Izuku looked to the floor.

"I-I don't have one..." Izuku confessed and Samuel smiled.

"Well, we are two then." Izuku stared at him with wide eyes.

"Y-You are quirkless?" Sam nodded with a confident smile.

"Yeah. But I don't suffer because of it. I know other things that are better." He gave Izuku a side smile. "Want to see what am I talking about?"

'Something better than a quirk...' Izuku asked himself as he started to grin. If he learns what this Samuel knows, he will become a hero for sure!

With a decisive nod he answered "Yes! Thanks Mr. Rodrigues!"

Sam chuckled "Please, Mr. Rodrigues was my dad. Call me Sam."

*Meanwhile, Midoriya's Residence*

Inko opened the door after someone knocked it. Thinking it was Izuku, she rushed to the door and opened it. What she got, it was a man dressed in black. "Excuse me, Inko Midoriya?"

Inko nodded slowly "Yes. May I help you?"

The man didn't answer, he just took a gun from his coat and shoot her, ending her life. Once the body hit the ground, the man was nowhere to be seen.

*?*

"What's this Sam?" Izuku asked as Sam was putting across his body some devices as he was laid on a bed.

"Nothing much. It is for the VR Training System to work." Sam explained and Izuku tilted his head.

"V-R What?"

Sam smiled at him "Don't worry. It will train your mind for what I will teach you. If you want to learn, we will have to modify a little your body thought." He informed and Izuku nodded. If this will give him something related to a quirk, it is worth it.

Izuku close his eyes as he drifted away to the virtual reality. Sam watched as another man came behind him. "So, it already started?"

Sam nodded. "Yeah. This will train his mind and will alter his memories. While he is asleep, we should start the process of the modifications."

"And will it work? I don't want to keep wasting my money in failed proyects." The other man stated and Sam chuckled.

"Relax boss man. The others rejected the modifications, because their quirks rejected the pieces. Someone without one, should do the trick." Sam explained and the man nodded.

"I see. Well, I'll call the personnel then."

*Some Hours Later*

Izuku opened his eyes feeling heavy. His body felt different. He moved his head and saw that he was in the same room that Sam brought him. He tried to remember more but that was about it. He only remembers Sam and that's about it.

"Hey kiddo! You woke up."

"Sam? What happened?" Izuku asked and Sam chuckled.

"Well, remember what I told you about getting you something better than a quirk? Well! Here you go! You have mental training of how to wield weapons, hacking, infiltration and etc. And your body was modified into this!" He said and Izuku looked down and his eyes widened.

His body was replaced by one of metal. His chest, stomach, arms, legs. Everything was now of a grey metal. "W-What?"

"Hey kid, you asked for this remember?" Sam said and Izuku blinked.

"I-I did?" Sam nodded.

"Yeah. Look kid, let me explain this to you; you are an orphan. I found you and you asked for these modifications. I'm sorry if this wasn't what you expected, but this is what you have now." Izuku was looking at his arms in disbelief and Sam placed his hand on his shoulder. "Look, I am here to guide you. If you trust me, you will be fine."

Izuku looked at Sam with shaky eyes "I will?"

Sam nodded "You will."

Izuku nodded "Okay."

Sam smiled "Great! Now follow me. We have a lot to talk about." He stood up and pressed a botton on the wall.

"Jetstream Sam, in what may I help you?" A voice asked and Izuku looked around, trying to find out where the voice was coming.

Sam chuckled seeing what the young boy did. "Yeah, Monika, I need a HF blade." In an instant, a robotic hand came from the roof, with a blue katana that was fully made out of metal, including the handle.

Sam grabbed it, and handed it to Izuku "This is a special type of weapon. It is called a high-frequency blade. It is able to cut through most materials due to resonating at high vibration frequencies." Sam explained and Izuku nodded not getting all that.

"Well kid, let's go. We have a lot to do now."

*10 Years Later*

A teen with platinum-blonde hair was walking across the streets, with a large briefcase and a trench coat. He was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt, and a jeans with black boots.

This was how Izuku Midoriya looked after 10 years and leaving the hell he was.

While walking he bumped with a blonde kid and they both turned to each other.

"I'm sorr-"

"Deku?" Izuku stared at an old face he hasn't seen in years and thought he wouldn't see again.

"Katsuki." Izuku said seeing the shocked face of his old best friend.

And done! That was the prologue, of 'Rising'. I hoped you enjoyed it. Now, I have to say again, this isn't 100% like Raiden, it is just inspired. Just like Sam, there aren't 100% the same. And with that said, I think that I said it all! Remember to leave your Review that it helps my motivation, PM me for any questions or suggestions, Follow and Favorite the story and me.

Till Next Time.
