"I've never been on a private jet before..." Izuku said nervously as she looked around at the inside of the luxury air liner. She glanced over at All Might as he chuckled at her comment and set a cup of tea down in front of her. "This is a once in a life time thing..."
"I don't use it very often, it usually just sits in a hanger at the air port." All Might laughed out as he sat down with his own cup of tea and took a sip. "Some times I lend it out to other pro heroes, or for charity."
"Amazing," Izuku's eyes sparkled with delight as she looked at her hero, before she took a sip of her own tea. She glanced out the window of the plane, seeing only the ocean that stretched for miles into the horizon. "You mentioned you got an invitation," She looked up at All Might curiously, "Is it from David Shield?"
"Hahaha!" All Might laughed proudly as he set his tea down on the table in front of him. "No, it was from some one else who I hold very dear to my heart." All Might's warm smile made Izuku very curious as to who this special person was.
"How did you meet Professor Shield?" Izuku asked next, and All Might looked up at her, before glancing out the window of the plane again. Izuku took a look herself, and saw a pair of Bald Eagles flying together in the distance.
"As you most likely know, I went to study abroad in America for College." All Might hummed out happily, looking as if he was lost in his memories. "It was a secondary school for Pro Heroes. America is a very crime ridden country, and it seemed the best place to start my journey to becoming the Symbol of Peace... It also helped to put some distance between myself and All for One..."
"All for One..." Izuku frowned at All Might as he let out a sad sigh.
"It wasn't long after his fight with my Mentor..." All Might glanced over at her, a sad smile on his face. "Gran Torino made the suggestion that I leave Japan, so that I could become strong enough to face him, with out putting the country in danger..." His smile seemed to warm as he sat up straight. "It turned out to be the best plan! It was in California that I met Dave! He was studying at the same College, developing new support items for Heroes when there was an explosion in his lab!" Izuku gasped loudly and put a hand over her mouth. "I happened to be outside the building, and you know me, I ran right into the flames, and saved about 6 people from the explosion!" He looked back out the window at the vast blue horizon, and grinned proudly. "Who knew it would lead to a life long friendship."
"He was your sidekick for a while, right?" Izuku asked curiously and All Might nodded his head proudly.
"Yes, my first Sidekick!" He laughed happily, "Though it was more like two good friends with similar interests helping each other out! He helped me with my first set of heroics. There was a bank robbery down town Las Vegas one day, two brothers had decided to try and rob a casino. We were heading to a class at the time when we heard the explosions, and I couldn't help myself you know!" He let out a booming laugh, and Izuku held back her giggles. "Those guys were definitely tough, and it was the debut of my-"
"YOUNG AGE COSTUME!" Izuku said enthusiastically and All Might nodded his head to her as she pumped her fists up and down. "I knew Professor Shield created it, but wow!" She cried out happily. "So he created it for you because of your close relationship! It was so amazing, I've seen the videos only a few times, but they're so great!"
"Yes, after I saved him from his lab when we first met, he insisted on making me a costume that could endure high temperature flames as well as scuffles and falls." All Might chuckled once again and took a sup of his tea. "I didn't think I would be able to ever have close friends, what with being the owner of One for All..." Izuku lowered her hands to her lap, and frowned at All Might. "I was afraid I would put them in danger... But I'm glad I took the risk. He had built this amazing car that we jokingly called the Might Mobile! It was full of gadgets and fun stuff. Where ever there was trouble, we were always able to arrive at the scene quickly. We were even able to save Air Planes with it! He sure is amazing..."
"Any friend of yours is amazing," Izuku said with a warm smile at her Hero as he reminisced about his old hero days.
"I'm going to take a brief nap," All Might sighed out as he leaned back in his chair. "It's a long flight to I-Island, and I'm going to need all the energy I can muster up!"
"Alright," Izuku giggled as she watched him quickly fall asleep, before she turned her head to look out at the ocean view once more. She continued to sip her tea, thinking back to the story All Might had just told her. "... People of the same level attract one another..." She mumbled out to herself, and sighed out. "How did I get here, to this amazing place...?" Izuku looked up at the roof of the plane, and smiled sadly to herself. "Going to I-Island of all places... How amazing!" She picked up her phone to look at the time. She so badly wanted to tell Katsuki and Uraraka all about how she was going on such an amazing trip, before she thought back to what All Might said earlier.
"... Am I putting them in danger...?" Izuku asked herself as she looked down at her lock screen. It was her and Uraraka, both grinning proudly while wearing All Might hats. She gripped her phone in her hand, and looked back out the window sadly. She didn't want her friends to be under All for One's radar because of her, one day. Would they get hurt? Would they become targets of the Villain Alliance if they found out she was the new wielder of One for All...?
Would she one day too, have to leave her friends and family behind, so that they wouldn't be in danger...?
"... No..." Izuku mumbled out, and a smile spread across her lips. "Everyone is a strong hero, they'll be okay."
After a long 5 hours, Izuku noticed something in the distance. She squinted her eyes to look, and got closer to the window as she tried to make out the large object floating on the water, before her eyes lit up.
"ALL MIGHT!" Izuku cried out as she turned to her hero, and gently started to shake him out of his nap. "ALL MIGHT, WAKE UP!" She couldn't contain her excitement as her hero slowly came around.
"What's wrong, Young Midoriya..?" All Might asked curiously as he rubbed his tired eyes free of sleep, and Izuku pointed out the window excitedly, and he leaned over to look.
"We can see it! LOOK!" She cried out happily, and touched her forehead to the glass. "THE ARTIFICIAL MOVING CITY INHABITED BY OVER 10 000 SCIENTISTS! I-ISLAND!" She cried out in excitement, and All Might let out a chuckle as he nodded his head. "WOW! IT'S SO AMAZING! It's like a dream come true... To be able to go to I-Island right at the beginning over summer vacation... I still can't believe it..."
"I didn't think you'd be this excited, we've been talking about it almost the whole way here." All Might laughed out and she quickly grabbed the Expo guide off the seat. It had all kinds of sticky notes and tabs poking out of it, from when she first gone on the plane, she had mapped out everything she wanted to see. "I'm really glad I invited you, it's good to see you're enthusiasm hasn't declined."
"I've been thinking..." Izuku scratched her cheek for a moment, before looking over at All might with a small frown. "... Is it really okay that I came with you...? What about other friends and Family...?"
"Don't worry about that," All Might laughed out and held up a finger. "Because we are connected by something thicker than blood, aren't we...? The Bond of One for All..." His proud grin spread across his face, and Izuku blushed a soft pink. "Besides, I don't think anyone else would appreciate this as much as you clearly do." He touched his finger to her Expo guide, and Izuku felt tears of happiness well up in her eyes.
"All Might, Sir." The announcement followed a calm binging tone and Izuku looked up at the speakers. "We will be beginning our descent onto the Island."
"Hah..." All Might stood up quickly, and Izuku watched him worriedly as he began to bulk up to his hero form. "It's about to get pretty exhausting from here on... Because once I arrive..." He turned to grin at her proudly, throwing his jacket off to reveal his golden age costume. "I must maintain my muscle form constantly! Now, Young Midoriya!" He leaned on the chair, and Izuku looked up at him nervously as he had to crouch over in the small plane to do his added height. "It's time for you to change too, you brought your costume from school right?" He pointed at her case that was stored under the seat she was in. "Get suited up, it's time for us to arrive!"
"Yes sir!" Izuku said excitedly, before she hurried to the bathroom on the plane. She quickly changed out of her summer uniform, and pulled on her green jump suit and tall black boots with kneepads. She promptly pulled on her metal mouth guard and freed the hood that hung off her back from the strap, before she grabbed the gloves out of the case. "I-Island..." She grinned as she pulled them onto her small hands, and threw the door open to the bathroom after packing everything away. "HERE I COME!"
"Whoa..." Izuku was shocked at the amazing airport they stepped out into after getting off the plane. She gripped her bag in her hand tightly as she looked around at the high tech screens that surrounded them on all sides, before both her and All Might stepped onto a moving floor that took them through their arrival procedure. She looked to the right, seeing her information and picture light up around her, along with stats on her quirk, and other personal information. "... Oh..." She glanced at some numbers that changed. "I gained weight..." She scratched her cheek nervously.
"It's muscle!" All Might laughed happily and she grinned up at him. "It weighs more than you think! You should be proud, you were barely 100lbs before!"
"Yeah, I guess." Izuku laughed out with All Might. "I feel stronger than ever before, for sure!"
"Now here's a question for you!" All Might held up his finger, and Izuku glanced back up at him. "A quiz if you will, why was this man-made island created?"
"To create a place in which the world's talents could gather together to research quirks and develop hero items!" Izuku said proudly as she thrusted her fist into the air. "This island was made mobile in order to protect the scientists and their research from villains! The secruirty system is known to be as amazing as Tartarus's prisons, and no villain has committed a crime here before!"
"Wow, you really know a lot about this place," All Might laughed proudly as he clapped a strong hand down on her shoulder to stop her muttering quickly. Izuku looked up as some doors opened up in front of them, and they both stepped off the moving floor and out into the foyer of the air port. She took a look around at all the different people arriving, and caught sight of a TV playing highlights of the Expo that would be happening this week.
"Immigration process complete." a robotic voice called out above her and All Might as they stepped through some automated gates. "Currently we are having a pre-opening of I-Expo, an exposition showcasing the results of various research and developments. If you have received an invitation, please come and take a look, and enjoy your stay."
"WOW!" Izuku looked to the exit of the air port, and hurriedly ran through the doors excitedly. Her eyes lit up with amazement as she ran out into a plaza, and was dazzled by all sorts of colors from the different buildings and attractions that could be seen all around the island. "It's like an amusement park!"
"I can't believe so many people are here before they officially open up to the public..." All Might laughed out as he walked up behind her. Izuku looked up at a floating orb like vehicle with a family in it, that seemed to be following the pull of an atom like structure. She could see massive waves of water in the distance, along with many buildings that hard large signs displayed out front, to advertise what the people might find inside.
"Seeing this all in person..." Izuku grinned brightly as some water danced up into the sky out of a fountain, and spelled out the word WELCOME in english. "You can really tell how amazing this place is!"
"Unlike Japan," All Might spoke up, and Izuku glanced up at him curiously. "People are allowed to use their quirks as they wish, here on the island. Apparently, there are a lot of attractions in the pavilions that use Quirks, so it's recommended. You should make a point of taking a look at them later on!"
"YES SIR!" Izuku said excitedly as she pumped her fists in the air.
"Now," All Might cleared his throat, and looked down at his phone. "Let's see... Where is the hotel we're staying at..."
"Hello!" Izuku turned around as she heard some one call out to them in english. She looked up at a rather pretty woman dressed in a clean white uniform, with a bright smile on her lips. "Welcome to I-Expo! Is there anything I can-" She paused, Izuku having barely able to catch everything she said, before the woman's eyes went wide in astonishment as she looked up at All Might. "ALL MIGHT?!"
"Eh..." Izuku looked around wildly as what the woman exclaimed seemed to cause a chain reaction in the plaza. One moment, they were simply standing with their luggage, then suddenly they were surrounded on all sides by people calling out All Might's name, trying to get autographs or a handshake even. "EEEH!?" Izuku felt like she was drowning in the sea of people as she tried her best to stick close to All Might. She felt people holding onto her, and things pressing against her face. "A-All Might...!" Izuku cried out as he grabbed onto her arm to try and keep her on her feet, before she became flattened by the sudden crowd of people that formed around them both.
"IT TRULY IS THE NUMBER ONE HERO, ALL MIGHT!" An english reporter called out to the crowd, and she had some camera's with her even. "An unexpected surprise here at I-Island for the I-Expo, All Might himself has shown up to enjoy the festivities!"
"ALL MIGHT!" Some peopled cried out, and Izuku felt her head contin"ue to spin as she clung to All Might's massive arm for support in the sea of bodies that pushed against her. Many women were trying to get kisses on the hero's cheek, but Izuku felt a pair of lips press to her own every now and then as some of them missed their intended target.
"WAHAHAHA!" All Might laughed loudly among the crowd as he started to push his way through. "SUCH A WARM WELCOME!" Izuku was a bit surprised by the english he was using, and she looked up at him with wide eyes as people continued to push against them from all directions. "THANK YOU EVERYONE! BUT WE MUST BE ON OUR WAY!" Izuku felt his large hand grip her arm, before she quickly tightened her hold on her luggage. She felt the wind swirl at his feet, before he took off from the crowd with a loud bang and a booming laugh. She could still hear the cheers of praise and happiness from the crowd they left behind, and she let out a sigh of relief as All Might made their escape towards a quiet plaza near a fountain.
"... Wow..." Izuku groaned as she looked down into the fountain water. She wasn't surprised to see the amount of lipstick on All Might's face, but she was definitely stunned by the amount on her own from the misdirected kisses. She began to rub them off her skin with a handkerchief while All Might caught his breath.
"It's a good thing we weren't kept too long." All Might sighed out in relief, a nervous sweat on his cheek as he began removing the lipstick from his own face. "I see you got your own set of love from the people!"
"More like misplaced affections..." Izuku said with a nervous laugh as she got the last of the make-up off of her skin. "That was... incredible..." Izuku said with a sigh, unsure of what other word to use for what just took place.
"We were almost late," All Might sighed out as he finished cleaning the lipstick off of himself.
"... Late..?" Izuku walked over to All Might curiously, and held out her handkerchief to him so he could use it.
"Yeah," All Might laughed happily, and looked down at her as he took the piece of cloth. "I wanted to have a reunion with some people I haven't seen in a while."
"Do you mean Professor Shield..?" Izuku asked curiously and All Might grinned at her proudly.
"He's one of them, yes." HE nodded his head, and he put his hands on his hips proudly. "Would you mind coming with me?"
"I..." Izuku's eyes lit up happily with excitement. "I WOULD LOVE TOO!"
"A few things..." All Might said with a sigh as he leaned towards her, and held up his hand to hush his words. "I have not told them about One for All or how I've passed the quirk unto you... So make sure to keep that information to yourself."
"... You kept it, even from Professor Shield...?" Izuku asked with a sad frown up at her hero.
"I mentioned this on the plane..." All Might stood up, and held a finger to his mouth as he looked down at her. "But there are many dangers that follow around those who know about the secret of One for All."
"I... remember..." Izuku lowered her gaze to the ground, her frown growing larger on her face. "That's true..." She felt the weight of the secret on her shoulders once more, and clenched her fists tightly as she thought back to what All Might explained to her about the quirk many times. She had the fate of one day facing the great evil that was All for One. She looked up at her hero as he turned away from her to look around at the empty plaza they stood in, and clenched her teeth. She had to be ready for that day, though how far away it was, she wasn't entirely sure... She lifted her hand to look at it, and clenched it into a tight fist. She needed to learn how to use One for All properly before then.
"Ah..." Izuku's attention was redirected as All Might made a sound of surprise, and she looked to where his gaze was focused on. She saw some one jumping up and down on what appeared to be a pogo stick at the top of a set of stairs.
"UNCLE ALL MIGHT!" Izuku could pin down the voice of a boy a bit older than her, and her eyes widened as she watched the tall boy on a pogo stick hop down the steps towards them, before he landed on the plaza. He kicked off the pogo stick and leaped at All Might happily. "UNCLE MIIIIIGHT!" He cried out again happily as the hero caught the boy from the air and spun him around in a friendly hug. Izuku blinked in confusion, and felt a pang of jealousy in her chest as she watched this stranger excitedly hug All Might.
"OOOH! MICHEAL!" All Might laughed happily as he continued to spin with the boy in a familial hug.
"Long time no see!" The blonde boy said excitedly in egnlish as he pulled back and looked down at All Might with a happy grin. "I'm so happy you came!"
"Thank you for inviting me!" All Might replied in the same language, and Izuku focused on the words carefully. She was glad she did well in English class, but the excitement and quick way of talking made it a bit hard for her to keep up. "I almost didn't recognize you! Look at you, all grown up! You'll soon be as tall as I am!" All Might laughed happily as he held the boy up like he was a small child.
"Uncle Might, I'm 17 now!" The boy Izuku assumed was named Micheal laughed happily and adjusted the glasses on his nose. "I sure hope I weigh a lot more than I used too!"
"No way, no way!" All Might lifted him up higher and grinned proudly. "You're still the same little boy who used to hang off my arm and try to take me down!"
"Ah..." Izuku blinked in confusion, feeling a little left out as she watched the scene from the sideline. Not only were they speaking in english, but they were acting so friendly with eachother, almost like they were actually family.
"I'm glad you seem well as ususal, Uncle Might." Micheal laughed as All Might set him down on his feet. Izuku was impressed to see he came up to halfway to the top of All Might's chest in height. Was this one of the friends that All Might had spoken about? She examined the boy from afar, noting his baby blue eyes and light blonde hair that looked like gold shining in the sunlight. He was definitely a foreigner, and he wore a burgandy vest over a white short sleeve shirt, with a plaid bow tie done up neatly. He adjusted his glasses once more as he talked enthusiastically with All Might in english, and Izuku blushed a bit, feeling jealousy swell in her chest at the familiarity the two of them had. "Sorry I'm a bit late, I lost track of time while I was working on my new experiment for school."
"Don't worry about that," All Might told her with a large grin. "I was wondering, where might Dave be?" All Might asked as he took a look around.
"He's in the lab!" Micheal laughed out as he put his hands on his hips. "It looks like he finished the first stage of some research he'd been working on for many years, so I invited you to this island as a surprise to celebrate that!" He grinned proudly up at All Might and gave him a wink.
"IS THAT SO?!" All Might laughed loudly. "What is that busy guy researching this time?!"
"He said it's confidential, he wont even tell me." Micheal sighed out as he crossed his arms.
"Scientists have it hard too, huh?" All Might asked with a sigh, and Izuku looked back and forth between them, the jealousy bubbling in her chest as she watched them continue their conversation in english. She almost felt invisible in their presence, and she felt her cheeks redden as she chastised herself for such childish thoughts. "AH! Midoriya!" All Might finally turned to look at her, and her posture stiffened as she tried to stand straight. "This is David's son, Micheal Shield!" All Might laughed loudly as he clapped a hand down on the boys shoulder.
"Ah..!" The boy finally looked at her with wide eyes, and Izuku felt her cheeks redden in embarrassment at her earlier thoughts as he smiled kindly at her. "I'm so sorry, It's nice to meet you!" The boy held out his hand for a handshake, and Izuku looked down at it, before she looked back at the boy and took his hand in a gentle but firm shake after removing her glove.
"Uhm... I..." Izuku cleared her throat, realizing she was using Japanese, maybe this boy didn't know their language? "I'm Izuku, Izuku Midoriya! It's nice to meet you, too! I'm a first year in the Hero course at Yuuei High School." She tried her best, and the boy let out a small laugh as he shook her hand.
"My apologies, I also know Japanese." He said with a large smile, and Izuku sighed with relief. As confident as she was in her english score, she was sure she could keep up a conversation in the difficult language. "Yuuei, huh? Then you must be Uncle Might's..."
"Yes!" Izuku grinned proudly as they continued to shake hands. "I'm his student!"
"She's going to be a Hero in the future!" All Might said proudly as he patted the top of Izuku's head.
"Wow!" Micheal grinned brightly, and looked back down at Izuku with wide blue eyes. "I can't believe you're Uncle Might's student!" He leaned in close to her, gripping her hand gently as he continued to shake it. "You've got a promising future, don't you?!"
"Ah...!" Izuku blushed a fiery red at how close the boy was, and pulled back as she waved her hands around nervously. "No, no! I'm still in training! I mean... I am..." She looked up at Micheal as he began to pace around her, looking over her costume with analyzing eyes.
"What kind of quirk do you have...?" He asked curiously as he did a circle around her, and went for another round. Izuku felt a nervous sweat on her cheek as he stood behind her and lifted up the hoof of her costume curiously.
"A-A P-P-POWER TYPE!" She cried out in a hurry, her face getting redder in color.
"Hmm... This is cool..." Micheal said as he inspected her hood then her mouth guard. "But it's a very old school design..." He continued around to her front again and touched her arm curiously. "I don't see any support items, either..." Izuku felt her chest pound as he leaned in closer to inspect her mouth guard, lifting it up to look at it curiously. "Ah..." She looked at him curiously as he let go of the metal piece around her neck, and took her exposed hand. He lifted it up, touching the scars on her fingers gently with his own. "Maybe you should refine your costume..." He said with a small frown as he inspected her hand, and Izuku looked down at it curiously, before All Might cleared his throat to get their attention.
"Micheal," He grinned at the boy who stood up straight and looked up at All Might. "I think it's about time, yes?"
"I'm sorry!" Micheal blushed a bright pink as he looked at All Might, then back at Izuku who was still red in the face. "I got distracted!" He laughed nervously before he ran over to the pogo stick that was some how standing on it's own. He grabbed it with a grin, and it turned into a beam of light before being retracted into a bracelet he wore. "We've got to hurry up and surprise Dad! This way, Uncle Might, Izuku-chan!"
"Ha..." Izuku smiled a bit as Micheal ran up the steps, and she grinned up at All Might before they took off running, following after the excitable boy ahead of them. Izuku looked around at the plaza as they ran through it while Micheal guided them across the Island, and she caught a glimpse of the air port. She felt a small chill of air down her spine for a brief moment, and wondered why that was, before she continued to follow after Micheal and All Might.
"This is the lab!" Micheal called out happily as they approached some massive concrete buildings, with one tall tower sticking out of the middle of them. She looked up at the small city like cluster of buildings, before they entered and were greeted by large smiles. People called out hello's to Micheal in all sorts of different languages, and he responded to them with a large smile and greeting in each one. All Might gave a shy wave to some flustered scientists, and Izuku felt a bit lack luster as she saw them look at her, as if wondering who she was and how important she must be, as she followed behind All Might and Micheal. Izuku shyly bowed her head to some who spared a greeting for her, before Micheal came to a stop at a door, and held a finger to his lips with a grin and a wink in her direction.
"Dad!" He called out as he slid the door open and slightly closed it behind him. Izuku leaned towards the small crack with All Might, to try and hear inside. "I see you're finally giving yourself a break!"
"Micheal!" Izuku heard an unfamiliar voice on the other side of the door, that sounded pleasently surprised. "I see you gave yourself one as well, what are you doing here?"
"Micheal, it's good to see you." Izuku heard another unfamiliar male voice in the room, and glanced up at All Might in confusion.
"You as well, Sam!" There was a laugh to Micheal's tone of voice, and Izuku couldn't help but smile at it. "Thanks for always taking care of Dad, who does nothing but research all the time."
"I can't argue with that!" Izuku heard a chorus of laughter inside the room, and held back her own giggle, wondering just how much Micheal and his father were like. "So, what is it that brought my son out of his own research lab to come visit me?"
"Well, to celebrate you completing the first stage of your research, I invited a special person!" Micheal laughed out, and Izuku looked up at All Might as he stood in front of the door, a large grin plastered on his face as he gripped the handle. "Some one you love dearly!"
"I AM HERE...!" All Might boomed out as he threw the door open with a bang, and Izuku heard surprised gasps from the men in the room. "SHAKING WITH EMOTION FROM OUR REUNION!"
"T-T-TOSHI?!" Izuku leaned around the door frame, and smiled warmly as she saw the surprise on an older man's face. He was classically handsome for some one in his later years, and had thick light brown hair on his head, and a pair of simple eyeglasses on.
"I CAME ALL THIS WAY JUST TO SEE YOU, DAVE!" All Might boomed happily as he ran into the room and scooped up his friend happily. Izuku let a giggle escape her throat as he spun the man around in a tight exuberant hug, while laughing happily.
"WELL?!" Micheal called out excitedly from behind All Might after he set David down. "Were you surprised?!"
"Y-yeah..." Izuku watched the surprised look melt off of David's face, into a warm and happy smile. "Very surprised."
"We both need to thank Micheal!" All Might said with a grin as he helped David up to his feet, and patted him on the back. "Man, how long has it been?!"
"Don't remind me about how old I am," David said with a teasing grin as he thumped All Might on the arm. "I'm sure neither of us wants to think about that, do we?" The two men both threw their heads back in laughter, and Izuku felt a warmth bubble in her chest at the touching scene of friends reuniting.
"I'm glad I could see you, Dave." All Might let out a happy sigh as he looked down at his friend.
"I'm glad to see you too, All Might." David grinned back at All Might, before the two of them shared a happy fist bump with one another.
"Young Midoriya!" Izuku stood straight as All Might turned back to look at her, and she blushed a bit as the attention of the room was directed on her. "Let me introduce to you, my best friend in this entire world, David Shield."
"P-Professor!" Izuku shouted excitedly, not thinking she'd get an opportunity to speak with the amazing man in the room who looked at her curiously. "To meet the man who made all of All Might's costumes, from the Young Age to the Golden Age, this is such an honor! And you even won the Nobel Quirk Prize, I'm so happy I get to make your acquaintance! You're a true genius, and I couldn't ask for more!" She hadn't realized it, but in her excited muttering she had walked further into the room, her fists pumping with energy and her smile getting larger with each passing second. She felt a few happy tears come to her eyes in her excitement as she bowed to the man quickly in greeting. "I-I'M SO MOVED! THANK YOU!"
"Heh..." Izuku heard a soft laughter behind her as she straightened up, and blushed a bright red as she glanced back at Micheal, before David stepped forwards.
"Well, it looks like I don't have to introduce myself." His Japanese was flawless, and Izuku looked up at him with wide eyes as the professor smiled down at her.
"S-SORRY!" Izuku bowed again in apology, "I got too excited! I apologize!"
"It's alright, don't worry!" David laughed happily as he waved a hand at her. Izuku caught the sound of a quiet cough from All Might, and lifted her head up a bit, wondering if he was alright. It had been about an hour since they arrived, his muscle form had to be putting a strain on him... "Ehm..." She looked up at David as he spoke, and saw him smiling down at her as she straightened up fully. "It's been a long time since I last saw All Might, would it be alright if we had some time to talk alone?"
"O-Of course!" Izuku nodded her head to David, and glance at All Might worriedly, but he gave her a nod that meant he was okay.
"Micheal...!" David smiled over at his son, and Izuku turned to look at him curiously, "Could you show Miss Midoriya around I-Expo?"
"Of course!" Micheal grinned brightly as he stepped up and gave a thumbs up to his father.
"I-Is that okay...?" Izuku looked up at him curiously, but he smiled down at her warmly.
"I'm honored to be able to walk around with a future hero," He told her with a nod, "Kind of like a date, I suppose!" He let out a soft laugh, and Izuku felt her cheeks redden in embarrassment. "Let's go, shall we?"
"Y-Yes...!" Izuku nodded her head rapidly, "Th-though a date, I've... I don't think... I uhm..."
"Relax, friends can go one dates with each other." Micheal laughed happily as he lead the way out of the lab. Izuku waved goodbye to All Might as she left, but hurrying after Micheal down the massive hallway that they were in. Izuku looked around at the inside, seeing the different places security doors were in, before Micheal spoke up again. "What would you like me to call you?" He asked casually, and Izuku looked up at him with wide eyes. "Midoriya? Izuku?"
"Ah uhm..." Izuku blushed a soft pink and scratched her cheek in thought. "A lot of my friends call me Izuchan, I guess..." She looked up at Micheal curiously and he smiled at her brightly. "Or Deku."
"Deku...?" He looked confused by that, and Izuku laughed a bit as they continued down the hallway. "That's a strange nickname... Maybe I'll stick with Izuchan, if that's alright? You can call me Micheal, Mike, or what ever you prefer!"
"Ah," Izuku thought that over, and tapped a finger to her chin in thought. "Then... Is Michan alright?" She asked curiously and he let out a small laugh.
"Yes, that's perfect!" He told her with a grin, and she smiled back at him brightly. "How did you get the nickname Deku, if you don't mind me asking?"
"Well..." Izuku blushed a soft red as she twiddled her thumbs nervously. "I have this childhood friend, you see... He gave me the name when we were kids..." She looked up down the hallway, and felt a warm smile spread across her lips.
"Sounds kinda mean, doesn't it..?" Micheal asked curiously, and Izuku shook her head a bit. "Doesn't it mean something like..."
"A person who is useless," She explained, and looked up at him with a grin. "But, The meaning changed over time. Now... It means never giving up!" She raised a proud fist, and Micheal laughed a bit as they stepped outside. "It's also the Hero name I've chosen." She smiled warmly as she looked up at the bright blue sky, and held her hand up to keep the sun out of her eyes. "And I wear it proudly... I'm glad he gave me the nickname, I don't think I could have picked a better one."
"Sounds like you really trust him." Micheal grinned at her, and Izuku nodded her head and smiled back at him proudly.
"Yeah, I trust him a lot!" The two of them continued their journey towards the pavilion. Izuku's emerald eyes were looking all around at the colorful buildings they were approaching, seeing some more theme park like rides as they walked. She glanced back at the large tower they had just left, and scratched her cheek. "So that was your father's lab?" She asked curiously, and looked up at Micheal.
"Him and some other Professor's share that building, it's the main one for more serious research projects" Micheal grinned proudly, and Izuku nodded her head as she continued to look around at all the different buildings. Some were purple, others were a bright green, with some oranges and yellows painted in fun designs.
"This place is amazing..." She said with wide eyes as she tried to take it all in. "It's really hard to believe this is a man-made island..."
"Well, we do have all the facilities of a large city," Micheal laughed out as they walked beside each other. She saw an Owl mascot running around and greeting some children, and giggled a bit as she saw happy families taking photo's. "Just about the only thing we can't do is travel."
"Really...?" Izuku paused and looked up at him curiously.
"It's because all the scientists and their families here have a contract of confidentiality." Micheal held up a finger, and grinned at her brightly. "To keep information from leaking out and getting to the wrong kind of people, we live here year round. I grew up on this island!"
"That's amazing," Izuku looked back around the island. "Growing up in this kind of place, it must have been fun!"
"In a way, yeah." Micheal chuckled at her, before they were both startled by an ear piercing roar. Izuku whipped her head around, her eyes lighting up in excitement as she recognized the sound, and spotted a large dinosaur like creature wearing a long white jacket with flames on it.
"NO WAY!" She cried out excitedly as her fists began pumping up and down. "IT'S THE MONSTER HERO: GODZILLO!"
"He must have been invited by a sponsor..." Micheal said curiously as a crowd gathered to watch the hero walk through the pavilion. Each step he took shook the ground a tiny bit, and Izuku felt her whole body buzz with excitement. "To show off their newest items and sign autographs... Stuff like that. It looks like there are a lot of different events."
"I-EXPO IS AMAZING!" Izuku cried out excitedly as she began jumping up and down. Micheal turned to look at her, and laughed as he saw how much energy she had.
"There's a party with all the industry guests tonight, too!" He continued to laugh as Izuku's jumping persisted, and she looked over at him curiously. "You'll be at that event too, right? Since you came with Uncle Might."
"Ah," Izuku paused in her jumping, and looked up in thought. "Was that why he asked me to bring formal clothes...?" She thought out loud curiously, before Micheal began leading the way again down the cobbled pathway.
"Ah, Izuchan!" Izuku turned to look at Micheal as he turned to head towards one of the biggest buildings she had seen so far. It looked like a castle straight out of a fantasy movie, but with modern parts here and there. "You should definitely check out this building!" She looked to Micheal as he excitedly jogged towards the building and pointed up at it. She nodded her head excitedly once again, before she hurried after her new friend into the strange building.
"Wow..." Her eyes lit up in wonder now as she saw the inside was dimly lit with floating blue orbs. She looked around the fantastical place, before noticing displays along the walls. "Are these... The newest Hero items?! ALL IN ONE PLACE?!" She pointed at a near by display, and Micheal let out a laugh and nodded his head.
"Look at this one!" He ran towards a massive UFO type vehicle and pointed up at it. "This multipurpose vehicle can fly, of course..." HE turned to look up at a screen and Izuku looked up at it as well and saw a video playing of the contraption. "But it can also move underwater!"
"WOW!" Izuku cried out excitedly, and began her bouncing of happiness once again.
"And over here...!" Micheal ran towards a water tank that went from the ceiling towards the basement. Izuku ran after him excitedly, and a type of diving suit began floating downwards. "You can wear this diving suit up to seven THOUSAND meters in the deep sea!"
"SO DEEP!" Izuku cried out as she touched the glass and looked downwards as the suit continued it path into the dark depths of the basement.
"And this...!" Izuku turned around as Micheal grabbed a helmet from a near by display and put it on her head for her. "These goggles are equipped with 36 different sensors that link to cameras!"
"I CAN SEE TOO MUCH!" Izuku cried out as she was bombarded with many different video feeds, including one of her own face. She panicked a bit as she saw the high def close up of herself, and hurriedly pulled off the helmet while Micheal tried to hold in his laughter. She looked up at him with wide eyes and he burst out laughing as he pointed a finger at her and she looked up at a screen and saw her hair was a mess.
"Oh geez," She blushed a bright red as she set the helmet down and hurriedly tried to fix it. "These hero items..." She looked up at Micheal as he regained his composure, and smiled at him. "They're all so amazing."
"They are." HE nodded his head as they continued to walk around and look at the different displays. "You know, almost everything here was created based on things my Dad patented."
"That's even more amazing!" Izuku cried out as they walked past a floating robot that some kids were excitedly pointing at.
"Each and every item here helps heroes around the world in their work..." Izuku looked back at Micheal, and saw a warm happy grin on his face. She followed his gaze to see some more people interacting with his father's work, and felt a warm smile creep up on her lips.
"You really admire your Dad, don't you?" Izuku asked curiously, though she knew the answer.
"Hah..." She watched Micheal blush a soft pink, before he turned to smile down at her. "That's because it's my dream to become a scientist like him!" Izuku felt a warmth bubble in her chest as they continued their tour through the building, and she looked up at the different inventions all around her. "What about your Dad...?"
"Ah.." Izuku was a bit caught off guard by that question, and she nervously scratched her cheek as they stopped in front of a large robot. "He uhm..." She looked at the ground in front of her, and thought about his question for a moment. She had never really spoken to anyone about her father before... Other than Katsuki. She lowered her hand, and looked up at Micheal, a sad smile spreading across her face. "He went missing when I was very young."
"I-I'm sorry!" Izuku watched a panicked frown cross the older boy's face. "I-I didn't mean to ask something so painful..."
"It's okay!" Izuku gave him a reassuring smile, and waved her hand at him. "It stopped being painful a long time ago! Besides, I still have a few memories of him." She turned to look up at the giant robot. "He always had a kind smile on his face... He also gave me my name." She glanced up at Micheal, seeing he was still frowning a bit, before she grinned at him warmly. "Enough about me! You go to the Academy here, right? What's that like?"
"Ah," Micheal blushed a bit and looked up at the robot. "Well, I'm in my third year. I major in Hero Item Research, and every day I learn something new. The I-Island Academy is where all those who want to become scientists want to go, and I'm lucky enough to be here." He let out a nervous laugh, and rubbed the back of his head. "But I still have a long way to go! I definitely need to study more..." Izuku watched him look up at the Robot, and she could almost see all of his hopes in dreams in his eyes as he gazed at the mechanical wonder.
"Me too," Izuku laughed out, and held up her right fist. "I have to work harder to become like All Might."
"You really love Uncle Might, don't you?" Micheal asked as he leaned forwards, and Izuku blushed a bright pink as she looked at him. "You were so enthusiastic earlier, it really surprised me!"
"AH!" Izuku felt her cheeks turn red and burn hot, before she shyly looked away. "I-I'm sorry! I couldn't help it... I have a bad habit of muttering when I'm interested in something..."
"You look like you're having fun, Izuchan." Izuku froze instantly at the sound of the familiar voice in her ear, and turned her head slowly, only to be met with large analyzing brown eyes.
"O-O-OCHACHAN?!" Izuku cried out in surprise, and threw herself back. Micheal quickly steadied her from behind, as she stared in horror and amazement at the sight of her best friend in her hero costume, grinning at her. "WH-WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
"You look like you're having fun..." Uraraka giggled, and looked up at Micheal, before looking back at Izuku, who was paling in horror now.
"Y-You said it again..." Izuku stuttered out, still a bit shell shocked from the surprise.
"Izuchan." Heard another familiar voice and Izuku felt her head turn mechanically to look at her tallest friend, Yaoyorozu in her hero costume. She saw a knowing smile on her face, and felt herself pale even more. "You looked like you were having a lot of fun."
"Izuchan..." Izuku's gaze snapped to Jirou who was beside her, and she swore her heart stopped. "I heard a lot... You're really having a lot of fun."
"Are these your friends?" Izuku turned her head to look up at Micheal who stood behind her, and she finally unfroze and stood up straight, nodding her head rapidly.
"Yes! They're my best friends!" Izuku cried out, and gestured to the small group of girls. "And classmates from school!"
"Yes, best friends!" Uraraka beamed happily as she hugged Izuku around the shoulders and pressed her cheek to the smaller girl's affectionately. "We tell each other everything!"
"Ah..." Izuku blushed a bright red as Micheal smiled at them warmly. "This is Micheal...!" Izuku pointed at the tall boy, "He was showing me around the expo!"
"That's right!" Micheal grinned brightly and gave them a thumbs up. "My Dad and Uncle Might are—"
"WHAAAAAA!" Izuku cried out and was in Micheal's face in an instant, clapping a hand over his mouth. He looked down at her in confusion, and she held a finger to her lips before pulling him off to the side hurriedly.
"Please..." Izuku begged in a hushed whisper to Micheal who raised an eyebrow at her. "Don't tell them I came here will All Might...!"
"Why's that...?" Micheal asked curiously, and Izuku bowed her head.
"It's... Hard to explain, but they really can't know..." Izuku begged him with her head bowed, before she looked up at him pleadingly. "I'm sorry..."
"Okay... Got it." Micheal nodded his head, looking like he was in thought, before he turned to the group of her friends with a bright smile. "Izuchan and I are E-mail pals!" He grinned brightly at the group of girls, and Izuku felt a nervous sweat on the back of her neck.
"E-mail Pals...?" The others asked curiously, and Izuku felt a wave of relief wash over her, as they seemed to be buying the lie.
"Yes! We met on a message board for Hero Items a few years ago!" Micheal grinned as he patted Izuku on the head. "We like to talk about all sorts of things Heroes could use, and I sent her an invitation to come to I-Expo!"
"How like you." Uraraka giggled as she looked at Izuku, and the other two smiled at her warmly. "Why didn't you say you were coming? We couldn't get a hold of you yesterday when we had a contest on who got to go with Yaoyorozu!"
"Sorry!" Izuku cried out, and laughed nervously. "It was kind of out of the blue and my flight left right away last night! I barely had time to pack!" Izuku felt a pang of pain in her chest... It wasn't entirely a lie, but she didn't like hiding things from her closest friends.
"My bad, my bad!" Micheal laughed out as he hugged her gently around the shoulders with one arm. "I didn't mean to spring it on you like that, but I really wanted you to come!"
"Why haven't you mentioned Micheal before...?" Uraraka asked curiously. They all left the building as a group to go to a cafe, with Yaoyorozu chatting away with Micheal happily as they did. "He's really nice! And..." Uraraka nudged Izuku in the side gently. "He's really cute too..."
"O-Ochachan!" Izuku blushed a flaming red, and tried to fan her face to cool it down. "I-It's not like that with him, please..." Izuku waved a hand worriedly at her friend, and she continued to grin at her knowingly. "We only knew each other through email, and I've always wanted to come here, he was just..." Izuku looked away from her friend, and at the others. Micheal laughed happily with Jirou and Yaoyorozu, and she looked down at her feet. "He's just showing me around, there's honestly nothing."
"I wonder what Explodo-Boy would think." Uraraka said with a humm of thought, and Izuku felt her whole body turn red. "He'd be in a full rage, for sure."
"Wh-what does Kacchan have to do with this?" Izuku asked in a panic and Uraraka laughed happily.
"I never pegged you as the type to juggle two boys!" the slightly taller girl teased and Izuku shook her head furiously.
"Y-You know I love Kacchan!" Izuku cried out to her, and Uraraka held back her giggles as best as she could at the sight of her flustered friend. "Michan is just a friend! Why would you say that?"
"Michan? You're that close?" Uraraka continued to tease and Izuku let out a groan.
"He's my friend, it's hard to say Micheal..." Izuku looked up at Uraraka worriedly.
"I know, I know." Uraraka laughed out, and poked her friend's bright red cheek. "I just want you to be happy, and do whats right for yourself."
"Thanks." Izuku laughed a bit, and nodded her head. "But really, I don't see him that way."
"Too bad..." Izuku and Uraraka jumped in surprise, and looked at Jirou who had fallen back to walk beside them. "He's a real catch... Foreign boys are really good looking."
"K-KYOCHAN!" Izuku cried out, and clapped her hands over her face to hide her embarrassment as the other two giggled.
Micheal lead them to a peaceful Cafe in the Pavilion, and the group took their seats at some tables that were thankfully shaded from the summer heat due to some umbrellas. Izuku let out a sigh as she relaxed in her chair, while the others chatted happily.
"Wow," Micheal grinned at Jirou, Uraraka and Yaoyorozu with a bright smile that could make any girl melt. "So you've all had experience working with Pro Heroes?"
"Just training and going on patrol!" Uraraka said with a shy wave of her hand before she took a sip of her iced tea.
"I got caught up in an incident, but all I did was evacuate people." Jirou sighed out as she stirred a fruit looking drink with her straw.
"For some reason..." Yaoyorozu sighed out as she touched her cheek shyly with her fingers. "I ended up being in a TV commercial..."
"That's all still amazing!" Micheal's grin didn't dull as he beamed at the girls. "What about you Izuchan?"
"Ah..." Izuku looked at the others who had worried expression on their faces, and she blushed a soft pink. "Nothing too special... I just got involved with an incident and ended up in the hospital. Nothing Heroic..." She looked away from the others as she remembered her battle with the Hero Killer not long ago.
"That's awful.." Micheal frowned at her, but Uraraka leaned in.
"She was in the Hosu incident." She pointed her finger up at the sky, and smiled a bit nervously. "It's very rare that students end up in that kind of situation..."
"A bit of a freak accident, really." Yaoyorozu sighed out, as the girls looked at a nervous Izuku. She had kept her promise to never talk to anyone about it, but they were all looking at her worriedly.
"It was just a couple of bruises and cuts, nothing to worry about!" Izuku let her nerves get the best of her as she let out a small laugh.
"Tomorrow..." Yaoyorozu spoke up, and Izuku thanked her mentally for doing so. "We're planning on going to the pavillion where the Academy's exhibit is!"
"Yes!" Uraraka beamed happily at Micheal who smiled at them all, "I'm really looking forward to it! Visiting different school can be fun! DO you have anything there on display as well?"
"Yes, of co-" Micheal was cut off as a drink was placed in front of Izuku.
"Thanks for waiting." The group turned their heads with a snap at the familiar voice, and Izuku's eyes widened in surprise as she looked up at Kaminari in a waiter's uniform.
"K-Kaminari?!" The girls exclaimed, before they all looked down, and saw another familiar face. "and Mineta?!"
"What are you two doing here?" Jirou asked the question that was on everyone's minds as they looked at their classmates.
"They needed some temporary staff for the expo, so we applied!" Kaminari grinned at the table with a thumbs up.
"We can go see the expo on our breaks, and also get paid." Mineta continued, and rubbed his thumb under his nose. "Not to mention... We can even have wonderful meetings with cute girls who are attending!" He grinned proudly at the group of girls as he looked around the table, before his eyes landed on Micheal. "what..." They watched his eyes widen in horror. "WHOSE THIS GUY?! HOW DID HE GET A HAREM OF BEAUTIES AROUND HIM SO EASILY?! AND MY BEAUTIES ON TOP OF TH-" He was cut off by a earphone jack slamming him in the face.
"C-Classmates of yours..?" Micheal asked in confusion, and the girls all let out a sigh and nodded their heads.
"We're in the Hero Course at Yuuei!" Kaminari laughed proudly as he held Mineta up off the ground.
"WHAT ARE YOU STANDING AROUND AND TALKING FOR?!" The girls all turned their heads in disbelief at the sound of another familiar voice. Their eyes went wide with shock as they saw some one running towards them at full speed. "IF YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE THE MONEY, THEN WORK HARDER!"
"I-IDA?!" Uraraka and Izuku cried out in surprise as their friend over shot in his stop, and sped past them, kicking up the wind. "You're here too?!"
"I come from a family of heroes." Iida said with a huff as he came back on a dime and slid to a stop in front of Kaminari and Mineta. "We received an invitation from I-Expo, but my family was busy, so I'm the only one who came."
"You too?" Yaoyorozu asked curiously, before smiling. "I also received invitations because my father holds some of I-Expo's sponsrs' stock."
"Yeah," Jirou grinned brightly, and looked over at their class president. "Because of that, Yao-momo had two extra invites, so we held a Rock-Paper-Scissors game that Uraraka and I won."
"Tsuyuchan, Minachan and Toruchan all came to the island too." Uraraka grinned happily.
"We're all planning on walking around together once it's open to the public tomorrow." Yaoyorozu giggled happily, and Izuku smiled at the others, glad that the rest of their friends could come as well.
"Would you like me to show you around?" Micheal asked curiously as he looked at the group of classmates.
"Would you?!" Uraraka asked excitedly, before looking at Izuku with a bright knowing grin.
"Of course!" Micheal beamed happily as everyone thanked him, and Izuku let out a groan and put a hand over her face.
"Hold on! We want to go too!" Mineta and Kaminari called out excitedly.
"I can show everyone around, no problem!" Micheal grinned at them and gave the boys a thumbs up. The boys thanked him profusely, and Izuku watched them curiously as they moved to the side, whispering to each other about how they could get girls that Micheal attracted to him.
"Hah..." Izuku let out a small sigh, before she was startled by a loud explosion. "What..." Izuku whipped her head around in a small panic with the others to see a loud mountain looking building. "What was that...?!" She cried out, and Micheal stood up from his seat.
"It's the Arena," He gave some money to Kaminari for the drinks. "They're holding a competition for up coming heroes, let's go look!" He hurriedly started running off towards the building, and all of the girls as well as Iida followed after him excitedly. They entered the arena as another loud explosion went off, and Izuku ran over to the railing to get a better look at the mountainous area. She saw waterfalls and a lake among the dark brown rocks, as well as some screens above the arena.
"CLEAR TIME, 33 SECONDS!" The announcer woman called out excitedly as smoke filled the screens. "IN EIGHTH PLACE, KIRISHIMA EIJIRO!"
"KIRISHIMA?!" The girls all cried out in surprise, and Izuku's jaw fell open a bit.
"Ah..." Micheal looked up at the screens curiously, before looking down at Izuku. "Is he also...?"
"He's from our class as well!" Uraraka grinned brightly as Izuku watched in awe while Kirishima got off the battle stage.
"NOW, THE NEXT CHALLENGER IS..."
"K-K-K..." Izuku was sure her eyes were about to pop out of her head now, and the others worried about her state for a moment as she leaned over the railing. "KACCHAN?!"
"Another classmate...?" Micheal asked the others curiously. They all let out a collective sigh, and nodded their heads. "Wow, what a coincidence!"
"NOW, VILLAIN ATTACK!" Izuku watched Katsuki strut over to the starting point on the battle stage, and she felt her hands shake a bit. She didn't expect to see him on I-Island of all places, and he was taking part in this competition? She watched him take his battle stance, and held her breath. "READY?! GO!" He took off from the ground with a loud bang, and Izuku could feel the wave of heat that came from his explosions. It kicked up the air around her and she felt it ruffle her hair as she watched Katsuki blast up into the air, before slamming an explosion on a robot target. One down... Two... Four... Five... Each target went down with a loud boom as her childhood friend rocketed around the stadium with great speed.
"DIIIIE!" Katsuki had a grin on his face as he obliterated each robot he came into contact with.
"Die...?" Izuku looked up at him as he continued to climb higher and higher on the mountain battle ground stage. With one final explosion, pebbles rained down on the stage as the announcer stared at the top in awe.
"Amazing..." She seemed just as star struck as the rest of them were, "AMAAAAAZING! HE CLEARED IT IN 15 SECONDS! HE'S IN FIRST PLACE!" Izuku watched Katsuki land with a thunk on the starting point, and he wore a proud grin on his face as he stood up to walk away.
"That's a new record..." Micheal said in awe as he leaned on the railing next to Izuku with Uraraka. "That kind of guy, he's definitely going to be an amazing Hero one day."
"Yeah..." Izuku couldn't help the proud smile that crossed her face, and she felt her cheeks heat up into a bright red.
"Oh... Deku-chan!" Izuku blinked in surprise as she looked to Kirishima and saw him waving in their direction. "Urachan! Oh wow, Iida, Yaoyorozu and Jirou too?! What are-"
"DEKU?!" Izuku snapped her head around in a panic as Kirishima was cut off, and she saw Katsuki's ruby red eyes locked on, and he blasted off the ground. The three of them leaning on the railing stumbled back in shock as he grabbed hold of it, and glared at Izuku with fire in his eyes. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" He snapped angrily at her, but she let out a nervous laugh as she held her hands up in surrender.
"K-Kacchan, You're going to break the railing..." She stepped towards him a bit and he began shaking the railing violently.
"THIS DOESN'T LOOK LIKE SHOPPING WITH YOUR MOM!" He shouted at her, and Izuku felt herself pale a bit. "IT SURE AS HELL DOESN'T LOOK LIKE EXTRA CLASSES OR SUMMER HOMEWORK EITHER! HOW DID YOU EVEN GET HERE?!"
"Ah, I invited her!" Micheal stepped forwards and smiled nervously at Katsuki whose ruby red glare snapped onto it's new target. "We're E-mail pals, I invited her to the expo as my guest! My name's-"
"I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT YOUR NAME IS!" Katsuki snapped angrily and Micheal laughed a bit nervously.
"KACCHAN!" Izuku's angry tone shocked everyone as she put her hands on her hips. "Don't yell at Michan like that! You don't even know him!"
"HAAAAH?! MICHAN?!" He growled out the name in a mocking tone. "When the hell did you get an E-mail pal?! What the hell even is that?! And Why have you never told me about him before?!"
"I-I don't have to tell you everything!" Izuku cried out, blushing a soft pink as she stormed towards Katsuki. "And stop yelling and mangling the railing! People are watching you know, and you're in first place!"
"TCH," Katsuki seemed to snap in anger at her comment and he hopped over the railing and glared down at her. "So you flew half way across the ocean just to meet up with some foreigner guy you barely know?!"
"Th-that's not why I flew here!" Izuku cried out, her cheeks turning a flaming red. "I'm here because it's I-Expo, and I want to be the Symbol of Peace one day!"
"THIS IS WHAT I MEANT ABOUT YOU BEING SIMPLE!" Katsuki poked the middle of her forehead with his finger as he ground his teeth in anger. "LOOK WHERE IT GOT YOU, WHAT IF I WASN'T HERE?! HUH?!"
"... I take it they're close friends?" Micheal asked Uraraka as the two childhood friends began to bicker back and forth with each other, while Iida slid in between their argument, trying to calm the angry Katsuki down.
"I'd say more like rivals," Jirou laughed from the side, and Uraraka crossed her arms.
"It's more like a child who doesn't know how to share." The brunette sighed out as Katsuki tried to continue his argument with Izuku.
"Kirishima...!" Yaoyorozu called out to the red head down below, and the others turned away from the heated argument to watch. "Did you both receive invitations to the expo, too?"
"No," Kirishima grinned up at the group above him, and put his hands on his hips proudly. "Bakugou was the only one invited since he won the Yuuei sports festival!" He grinned proudly, and pointed his thumb at himself. "He just invited me because he had a plus one!"
"You..." Izuku looked up at Katsuki with a hurt expression, and everyone turned to look at the argument that came to a sudden halt. "... You had an extra invitation...?"
"Wha..." Katsuki seemed a bit caught off guard by the sudden change in emotion. The girls watched him squirm mentally as he looked down at Izuku, before looking at Iida for help, who shook his head. "Y-You said you had stupid plans! Besides, you're already here! What's the big deal?!"
"You know better than anyone that I would've said yes to coming here with you!" Izuku cried out at Katsuki, who looked shocked by that exclamation. The rest of the group collectively held their breath, while Micheal seemed a bit confused by the whole situation. "I've always wanted to go to I-Expo! I would have swam here if I had too!"
"... You... Only wanted to..." Katsuki's rage seemed to be refueled as he glared down at her. "Come with me, because of the Expo...?"
"OF COURSE!" Izuku cried out, and the group let out a collective sigh.
"Ehm..." Kirishima called out from down below, and everyone turned to look down at him as Katsuki's rage continued to bubble. "Does... Anyone else want to try the course?!"
"It's no use!" Katsuki snapped angrily, and Izuku looked up at him with wide eyes. "None of these idiots will do better than I did! Right, DEKU?!" HE looked down at her challenginly, and Izuku frowned up at him, remembering his amazing score from moments ago.
"Yeah," She looked away from him, frowning sadly. "You're probably right..."
"Buuut..." Uraraka stepped up behind her, and glared at Katsuki darkly, before putting a hand on Izuku's shoulder comfortingly. "You won't know until you try."
"Yeah... You're right..." Izuku sighed out, before pausing. "Wait-"
"Then go for it!" Uraraka cried out happily as she hurried Izuku to the railing and patted her back. "Show that insensitive idiot whose stronger!"
"Ah..." Izuku looked up at her friend nervously, before glancing at the others. They all nodded their heads excitedly, and she turned to look at the course. "... Alright," She sighed out, a small smile forming on her lips as she leaped over the edge and hurried to the starting point.
"OOH! We've got a new challenger coming in!" The announcer woman smiled at Izuku who took a deep breath as she got ready. "Just what kind of results will she get?!"
Izuku bent her knees and clenched her fists as she activated One for All in full cowl. She had decided to do this, so she had to do it properly. Some of Katsuki's comments stung a little bit, and she had to show him... Show him she was strong.
"Come on One for All..." She whispered to herself as the Announcer raised her hand. "FULL COWLING!" She cried out as she charged all her limbs up, and a burst of air swirled around her. Arcs of green lightning shot off her body and crackled in the air.
"VILLAIN ATTACK! READY..." The woman brought her hand down, and Izuku took a sharp intake of breath. "GO!"
"YEAH! GO IZUCHAN!" Uraraka cried out as the small green haried hero took off with a loud crack of thunder. She moved faster than most could follow, and the brunette clapped excitedly with the others from the stands above.
"Wow..." Micheal breathed out as he watched, and Uraraka grinned up at him, before she heard a clicking sound to the left. She saw Katsuki's eyes flick away just as she looked at him, and a grin spread across her face.
"Don't complain if you lose..." Uraraka chimed out as they watched Izuku bounce all around the stage, kicking and punching the robots to smithereens as she went.
"I won't lose..." Katsuki snapped angrily, and Uraraka shook her head.
"That's not what I mean..." She looked up at Katsuki, and saw his expression darken instantly.
"I said..." Katsuki growled out, and he glared down at her, sending a small chill up Uraraka's spine. "I wont lose."
"THIS IS AMAZING!" They looked back up at the battle stage,and Izuku smashed through the last robot with a powerful punch and a look of full concentration on her face. "FIFTEEN SECONDS! IT'S A TIE FOR FIRST PLACE!"
"Hah..." Izuku slid to a stop in the dirt, and turned her head as she heard the gasps and cheers from the stands. The last bit of electricity that sparked off her skin left with a crack, and she smiled nervously as the crowd applauded.
"IZUCHAN! THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL!" Uraraka cried out happily from above as Izuku went to leave the stage. She looked up at the others and waved happily at them with a bright smile on her face. She saw the awed look in Micheal's eyes as he watched her, before they seemed to start processing some information. Izuku felt a nervous sweat on the back of her neck as she took the stairs up to the stands, and both Uraraka and Jirou hurried over to her, to squeeze her in an excited hug.
"That was truly amazing, Midoriya!" Iida said with a proud smile, while Yaoyorozu nodded behind him.
"You totally beat me!" Kirishima laughed happily, "A tie for first place, huh?!" Everyone turned to look at Katsuki who was vibrating with irritation now.
"Ah, I was about half a second behind," Izuku said with a nervous smile, and everyone looked down at her curiously. "He beat me by at least .33 of a second..."
"No one's counting that though," Uraraka said with a frown.
"Tch," Katsuki grumbled as he turned to look at Izuku, his arms crossed in anger. "Just take the fucking score! They weren't counting the damn decimals!"
"But..." Izuku paled a bit as Katsuki turned away from her.
"... Just accept it." Uraraka said with a giggle, and Izuku blushed a bright red. "I guess it's pretty neat... Having the same score as Kacchan." Izuku let out her own giggle, while the rest of the group looked at Katsuki in concern as his palms exploded suddenly.
"QUIT YOUR GIGGLING AND PAY ATTENTION!" He snapped loudly at the group.
"WOW! WOW! WOOOOOO!" The group of teenagers heard the announcer squeal with delight, and Izuku suddenly felt cold as the temperature in the arena dropped rapidly. They all turned to look at the mountainous battle stage, and were all shocked by the familiar sight of it being completely encased in ice. "FOURTEEN SECONDS! HE'S JUMPED TO THE TOP!"
"TODOROKI?!" The group called out collectively, and Micheal let out a laugh at how in unison everyone seemed to be.
"Another classmate?" He asked Izuku curiously and she nodded her head rapidly. "You're all so amazing!" He grinned brightly, and all the girls except for Izuku blushed a soft pink. "As expected of future heroes!" He looked back down at the battle stage in excitement.
"... I'd say he's the amazing one..." Kirishima chuckled out beside Izuku, and she looked up at him curiously. "Where did you find this guy?"
"O-Online..." Izuku hurriedly cried out, and the others giggled.
"OI! ICY HOT!" There was a loud boom once again as Katsuki launched himself over the railing again, and Izuku let out a sigh as she leaned on it.
"Bakugou...?" Todoroki looked over at the angry blonde that landed near him, before they both stood tall.
"When the fuck did you get here?!" Katsuki snapped angrily. "Who said you could appear suddenly and try and make everyone think you're amazing?!"
"Ah... Midoriya and the others are here too...?" Todoroki asked curiously, and looked up at the railing. He gave a wave in their direction, and Izuku waved back, wondering who else from their class was laying in wait to surprise them.
"DON'T IGNORE ME!" Katsuki snapped once again, his palms crackling loudly. "Why the hell are you here, anyway?!"
"I'm here to represent my father..." Todoroki looked at Katsuki curiously, "I guess this explains why I couldn't get a hold of Midoriya... I was going to invite her with me, considering she loves this kind of thing." The calmer teen started walking towards the exit. "I take it..." He glanced up at the railing, seeing Izuku talking to Micheal and pointing at him excitedly. "... She came here alone...?"
"TCH, WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!" Katsuki growled out as he stormed after Todoroki.
"It means..." Todoroki looked back at him with his signature icy stare. "That you let more competition creep up on you." He pointed at Micheal coolly, and Katsuki growled in anger once again.
"THERE IS NO COMPETITION!" He raged as he stormed up the stairs beside Todoroki.
"Not if you keep up that attitude..." Todoroki sighed out as he looked away from him.
"Todoroki...!" Izuku called out as she turned to look at the two boys. One looked like a cold mountain, while the other looked like a fiery volcano as they came up the stairs, both with looks of irritation in their eyes. "You surprised us! But of course you would come, considering your father is Endeavor!"
"Endeavor?!" Micheal asked with wide eyes as he looked at the new addition to the group of classmates. "Really?! That's-"
"THAT SCORE THOUGH!" Izuku cried out, and Micheal looked at her in confusion. Izuku saw the irritated look in Todoroki's eyes melt a bit as he looked down at her. "You completely beat us!"
"IT WAS ONLY A DAMN SECOND!" Katsuki snapped loudly, before Iida slid up and chopped him in the side of the head.
"Listen up!" The class president put his hands on his hips, giving the group a serious look. "We are here as representatives of Yuuei! We must conduct ourselves accordingly and act like proper students!"
"YOU CAN'T BE THE CLASS PRESIDENT EVERY WHERE YOU GO!" Katsuki yelled.
"I HAVE A DUTY TO UPHOLD, AND IT FOLLOWS ME OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM!" Iida protested, and everyone else let out a sigh.
"I'm glad you made it." Todoroki said simply as he approached Micheal and Izuku. "Whose your friend...?" He looked up at the older boy, who was a fair bit taller than him.
"Micheal," the blonde smiled warmly at Todoroki and offered a hand to shake. "It's a pleasure to meet you, I really admire how you took top place." He glanced back at the arena to see the ice being melted by some staff. "Izuchan told me you have a multi-element quirk! It's amazing that you can handle both temperatures so well!"
"Ah..." Todoroki looked down at Izuku who was beaming at him with pride. "Well it's thanks to her, really.." a soft smile crossed his face, and Izuku blushed a bright red.
The group left the arena, and Izuku could feel in the air how much more lively it was now that some of her friends were here. She felt her chest swell with warmth as the familiar laughter and bickering filled her ears, and she giggled softly to herself. They toured the Pavilion's for the rest of the afternoon, and each time a contest came up, the boys felt the need to compete with each other for the top. Some of them Katsuki won, some of them Todoroki took the top in... Occasionally Izuku out shined them both, but what really made her happy was everyone taking an interest in the hero item displays that Micheal showed them. As the sun started to go down, the group made their way back to the Cafe they had gone to earlier.
"Attention Guests; Today we will be closing at 6 P.M. Thank you very much for coming."
"Mineta, Kaminari...!" Izuku called out as they approached the Cafe that was shut down for the day. The two of them were sitting on the ground looking defeated, before the looked up at the others. "Good work today!"
"An angel...!" Mineta cried out, and reached out towards her in a groping motion, before Katsuki swiftly smacked him down. "WHEN DID YOU GET HERE?!" The small boy with purple hair looked up at Katsuki, Kirishima and Todoroki who were giving him a disapproving look.
"It doesn't matter when we got here..." Katsuki growled out in anger as he bent over to get eye level with the boy. "What matters is that if you do that again I'll-"
"You both worked hard today!" Iida pushed Katsuki back and smiled at the other two proudly. He held two tickets out to them both, and they looked at them in awe.
"What's this..?" Kaminari asked curiously, and Micheal beamed at them.
"They're invites to the reception Party at the I-Tower!" He pointed at the large tower Izuku and Micheal had first gone too, where his father's lab was. "I had them prepared because you both worked so hard!"
"A god among men!" Mineta cried out happily before him and Kaminari hugged each other.
"I heard that there will be a lot of Pro Heroes at the party, as well." Iida stood up straight as he got the attention of the group. "In order to uphold Yuuei's reputation, please change into your formal clothes and let us attend the party as a group! We will meet at 7pm in Lobby 7 of I-Tower! Please make sure you're on time!"
"Yeeees!" The group of classmates chimed out in unison, before everyone started heading back to their hotels.
"Do you need any help?" Yaoyrozu asked Izuku curiously, but the smaller girl shook her head.
"No, I'll be alright!" Izuku beamed up at her happily. "I brought everything I needed, including my All Might make-up!"
"That guy has a make-up line...?" Todoroki asked curiously, and Jirou let out a sigh.
"Yeah, it's pretty incredible." She commented, and everyone let out a laugh.
"Izuchan," Izuku looked up at Micheal as he stopped for a second where there was a fork in the path, and looked up at him in confusion. "Will you come with me for a second? I want to show you something."
"Ah, sure." Izuku beamed up at him, and everyone held their breaths and glanced over at Katsuki as they heard crackles of explosions, before they felt a chill on their left, and saw Todoroki's right arm was starting to frost up. "I'll see everyone at the lobby!" Izuku looked back at the others and waved at them happily before she broke off from the group with Micheal.
"... WHO THE FUCK EVEN IS THAT GUY?!" Katsuki snapped angrily.
"When did she meet him...?" Todoroki asked curiously, before Uraraka walked up behind them both and patted their backs.
"He's our greatest rival for Izuchan's affection..." She sighed out, "And it's both your fault this happened."
"SAY THAT AGAIN!" Katsuki raged angrily, and a loud explosion went off. "I FUCKING HATE THIS STUPID ISLAAAAAND!"
