If some things are not clear feel free to ask me about them in reviews or PM's, But for the most part I tried my best to explain.

Anyways, so here we go...

PLEASE ENJOY AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!


The World was composed of a vast continent that curved around a sea. A vast Forest made up the top half of the continent, up until the rocky Mountain region that resided under the vast Badlands that took over the most northern part of their world. Further down the curving continent was the Central grasslands where the capital of their world was, and near the end of it, was the Plains, made mostly of farm land.

Everyone in this world was born with magical powers inside them that the people came to call Quirks. Their powers only manifested due to the help of weapons or special items. The people of this world utilized their powers to grow as a populace, before their lives became threatened by the Demons from the Badlands.

A power arose from the masses as they fought to defend their homes and lives. One Man stood at the front, using the sword from an ancient legend passed down through the land. The sword was named, One for All. With it, the brave man struck down the demons and drove them back to the Badlands from where they came. The people of The World were stunned by this mans power to cut down hundreds of the creatures and drive the rest back, so they named him to be The King of The World.

As Time passed, so did the first King of The World. The demons began to try take back over, leaking out across the land. Because of the ever present threat they posed, the job of Hero became a prominent one, and those with strong power rose to fight back the evils. Guilds were created across the land, employing heroes from all over to help battle the threats to small villages and farm lands.

Soon, the demons were rising in power, threatening the existence of the people who lived everywhere. They cried out for the ancient King of Legend, hoping some one would drive back the hordes of demons once again.

Their cries were answered, as a new King took up the job. Brandishing the ancient sword from the legends, he banished the Great Demon back to the Badlands as he threatened the Central Kingdom. The cheers of the people named the man to be the new King of the World, his power and presence bringing peace back to the chaotic World once again.

11 years ago...

"Haaah...!" A young girl, about the age of 5 was running through the forest as fast as she could. Her long green curls filled with leaves as she clutched a large egg to her chest. She looked back behind her with wide emerald eyes as she ran, seeing a large wolf like demon running after her. She felt her tears fall from her eyes as she continued to push on through the trees, and up hill.

"The mountains...!" She cried out as she ran up a slope, kicking off a rock to jump to a next one. She looked back as the demon got closer to her, and she cried out in horror as she dove away from it's snapping jaws. She went rolling down the slope, clutching the egg to her chest tightly to protect it. She groaned as she came to a stop, and looked up at the valley she was in. "Gotta... gotta run...!" She cried out as she pushed herself up, but felt her long green dress snag on a bush. She yanked on it furiously, trying to free herself, before she heard the dark growling of the best that had been chasing her. She looked up in horror to see it slowly approaching her while she was trapped. "Augh... NOO!" she cried out as she yanked on her dress. "Help...!" She cried out, her tears falling down her cheeks as she tried to free herself. The demon growled at her, before launching itself in her direction. Her eyes widened before she clutched the egg closely to her chest. She needed to protect the precious item, dragon eggs were rare after all... She sobbed out as the demon opened it's jaws, and saw the many sharp teeth inside its mouth. She screamed out, crouching down to protect the egg, before she heard a loud explosion from the side. She looked up to see some one crashing into the demon. It was a boy her age with ash blonde hair and large ruby red eyes that were glaring at the demon. He put his hand on the demons face, and she saw a bracelet with red jewels on it glow, before he set off an explosion, and the demon was blasted back into the forest.

"Wha...?" She looked up at the boy as he landed on the ground in front of her. She recognized the tribal attire of the Mountain People, the dark baggy pants... no shirt... He was wearing tribal jewellery, many beaded necklaces all around his neck, and the beaded bracelets he had around both his wrists. She gulped as the boy glared back at her with his big ruby eyes.

"RUN, IDIOT!" He shouted back at her, and she clutched the egg to her chest, before she looked at her dress. The boy grunted in anger as he reached down and tore the fabric to free he. "GO!" He shouted at her, and pointed towards the valley.

"B-But what about you...?!" She asked him as she got up and he smirked at her.

"I'll be fine, I saved your ass didn't I?" He said with his toothy grin, before they heard the snarls of the demon. The two children looked back as it jumped out of the bushes at them, it's jaws opened wide. The boy growled out in anger, turning towards his opponent with his hands opened wide. "Get out of here, I'll kill this thing!" He shouted at her before he jumped at the demon, blasting off the ground with the use of what she assumed was his quirk. She watched as he clashed with the wolf like monster, blasting it in the face with his exploding palms.

"I can't just..." She looked down at the egg in her arms, and then up at the boy. She felt a nervous sweat on her cheek, before looking at her town dress. "Ah.." she grabbed the hem of it, and ripped the fabric off all around her, till it was above her knees. She made a sling around her body, and tied the egg tight against her, before she looked around for something to use to attack with.

"AUGH!" She looked up in horror to see the boy thrown back against a tree, and clutching his arms. They looked like they were throbbing with pain and her eyes went wide as the demon approached him. "Tsk... Like I'll let some fucking monster get me..." He said with a growl as he glared at the demon.

"NOO!" Izuku cried out as the demon lunged at the boy. She started running towards it, her tears of fear flying off her face. She looked at the ground, and spotted a large tree branch. She reached down and grabbed it with her small hands as she ran towards the demon that the boy was fighting off. He had his hands on it's open mouth, trying to hold it back from biting down on him. "GET WAY FROM HIM!" She screamed out as she jumped up over a bush and swung the branch back. The boy looked up at her in shock, as the branch started to glow a faint green like her arms. She swung with all her power, and smashed the branch into the side of the demon's head. She watched as the demon went flying from her blow and she landed with a thunk on the ground, using her arms to brace herself so she wouldn't crush the egg.

"What the fuck are you doing?!" The boy shouted at her and she looked up at him as he glared down at her. "You're going to get yourself killed!"

"So are you!" She shouted back at him, and he growled out in anger before he reached out and grabbed her by the arm. He pulled her up to her feet, and she let out a groan as she dropped the branch she was holding. "Ha... I've never done that before... My arm hurts..." she said as she looked at her hands.

"There's no time to worry about that...!" The boy shouted at her and he pulled her into a run. She followed after him, considering he was still holding onto her wrist. She looked up at the back of his head as they ran. "What the fuck is a stupid girl like you doing out here anyways?! You're not from the mountains!"

"I-I'm from a village near by in the forest..." She told him as they ran, trying to keep up with him. "I-I didn't know there was a Mountain Tribe near by...!"

"Fuck..." She saw him look back behind him and she blinked in surprise and turned her head to look behind her as well. She saw the demon running after them, snarling in anger as they broke out into the rocky valley. "That thing just won't die..!" He slid to a stop and pulled her behind him. She looked up at the back of his head nervously as he held his hands out. "Stay behind me... I'm going to kill this fucking thing."

"Wait...!" She cried out and he looked back at her, a look of annoyance on his face. "We keep hitting it in the wrong spots!" She told him in a panic, "We have to wait for it's mouth to be open... No matter how many times you blast it in the fur it's fine... and there's no damage from when I hit it..."

"WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO TALK!" He shouted at her, and grabbed her by the arm as he pulled her out of the way while the demon dove at them. She hit the ground with him as they rolled, and she looked up to see the boy getting up. "How the fuck am I supposed to blast him in the mouth with out getting my arm chopped off?!"

"I have an idea..." She said nervously, and she pushed herself up too. "I'll distract it..."

"THAT'S HOW YOU FUCKING DIE! DO YOU WANT TO DIE?!" The boy snapped at her and she ground her teeth together, her tears dripping down her cheeks.

"No... That's why we've got to do this..." She looked at him nervously, before she pulled a pair of white gloves out of a pocket on her dress. She pulled them on her hands, and clenched her fists tightly, making them glow green. "Mom says I shouldn't use these... But now is not the time to think about that..."

"You're not thinking at all!" The boy shouted at her, and she laughed a bit, before she the egg off her self and set it down on the rocks gently.

"But I am!" she shouted, before she took off at a run. "Get him in the mouth when I say!" She shouted back at the boy who watched her in disbelief as she ran head on towards the demon. She narrowed her eyes at it, as it took a run at her. She looked up as it jumped into the air to pounce on her, and she ground her teeth together as she slid to a stop in the rocks, before she lifted her hands up. The demon opened its mouth, ready to eat her, but she reached out with her glowing green hands, and grabbed both parts of its open mouth, and groaned as the demon slammed her back into the rocks. "NOW!" She screamed out as she held the demon's mouth open. She heard explosions from behind her, and looked up to see him glaring at the demon as he came in hot. He reached his hand out, pointing his palm up into the open mouth of the demon, before he let off a powerful explosion into it's throat. The girl cried out in surprise as the demon was blasted out of her hands. She held them in front of her face to block the bits of it that exploded everywhere, before she felt something fall on her stomach. "OOF!" She opened her eyes, groaning in pain as she looked at the boy who had fallen on top of her and he pushed himself up, grumbling as he looked over at the bits of demon that disappeared in black smoke all around them. "Ha... Good job..." she said with a smile to him, and he snapped his head to look at her, anger in his eyes.

"I could have fucking done that on my own!" He shouted at her, and her smile turned into a nervous one as he got up off of her. He let out a grunt as he glared down at her, before grabbing her by the arm and pulling her to her feet. "Idiot, The fuck kind of quirk is that?"

"Uhm..." Izuku felt a nervous sweat trickle down her cheek as she looked up at him, before she pulled her gloves off her hands. "Just a strength one... I can use it on objects in my hand... Or with these gloves..." She pocketed them and looked up at him as he glared at her, "Yours... It's pretty cool, I noticed your bracelets were glowing when you used it." She pointed at his wrists, "I've never seen anything like that before, it's so amazing!"

"Hmph..." the boy looked away from her, his cheeks turning a little pink. "Of course it's amazing I'-"

"THE EGG!" She shouted, cutting him off. He looked at her with wide angry eyes as she ran off towards the egg she left on the ground. She dropped to her knee's beside it, and sighed out with relief to see it was all right. "Thank god..."

"The fuck is that... A Dragon Egg?" The boy snapped from behind her, surprising her. She looked up a him nervously. "What the hell are you doing with something like that?!"

"I found it..." she said with a frown as she stood up with the egg. "The other day I was looking for herbs for the village... And I found this egg around here." She looked up at the boy, "I couldn't find a nest or anything, so I took it back home. But my mom says I can't keep it..."

"Of course not, idiot. That thing would burn down the forest you live in." He snapped at her as he took the egg into his hands. "This is a Fire Dragon egg..."

"Really...?!" The girl asked curiously as she looked at it. He looked at her with annoyance, before pointing at the red specks all over it that shone like rubies in the sun.

"Yeah, the specs give it away, moron. My tribe has a few of these guys, they take a lot of hard work to train, there's no way you could do it." He growled out and looked down at her.

"Oh.." The girl frowned sadly, but it quickly turned into a smile as he looked up at him. "Then... Maybe you could look after it for me...? I know these are rare, I was trying to bring it out here so it could hatch in the mountains."

"Fucking forest people." He snapped as he looked at her, before he turned away and growled. "I'll fucking take it then."

"Thanks." The girl smiled warmly at him and he looked back at her."By the way... I didn't get a chance to introduce myself because of that demon... I'm Izuku." she pointed at herself with her finger, grinning brightly. "Whats your name?"

"... Katsuki..." He growled out to her, and quickly looked away.

"What a pretty name!" She said happily to him as he sat down on a rock and looked the egg over. "What are you doing...?"

"Don't call boy's names pretty." He snapped and looked up at her, before looking down at the egg in it's hands. "Uusally you can tell when it's close to hatching... I'd say this has about a week before it comes out."

"Wow..." Izuku crouched in front of him, and looked at the egg in his hands with a warm smile. "I wish I could see that..."

"... You can." the boy grumbled out as he looked down at her. "My tribe is very close by... I assume you're in that village that's not far from here." He grumbled out and looked down at the egg again.

"Really...?" She looked up at him with wide eyes, "So... Can I come out here to see it then..?"

"That's what I was saying, moron." He looked down at her and grumbled. "Jut don't get fucking almot eaten by a demon again... We can meet here." He waved a hand at the small valley they were in, just on the edge of the mountainous region. He looked back down at her as she smiled brightly up at him and he growled out. "Stop smiling like that! Are you stupid or something?!"

"S-Sorry!" She said with a nervous laugh and stood up. "I'm just... really excited!" She told him, and looked at the egg. "I can't wait..."

Over the next several days, the girl would leave her village in the forest to meet the boy from the Mountains. They would sit and talk about quirks they had seen, and the boy would tell her all about living in the mountains. He was always surprised to see how fascinated she was by his stories, and she would write the out in a note book she brought with her.

"Why the hell are you always writing in that stupid book...?" He asked her in annoyance as she scribbled more information down about dragons. It was the 6th day since they met, and he was always curious of her strange habits.

"I want to become a Hero one day and travel the world...!" She told him happily, and smiled up at his surprised face. "I wanna see everywhere, and meet lots of people! I want everyone to know my name, and I want to save people from demons, like how you did the other day...

"... You helped." He told her bluntly, looking at her curiously.

"Yeah, but I almost died before you showed up. I was so happy you did!" She told him with a bright grin. "I think you'd make a great hero too!"

"Tsk," the boy looked away from her. "I don't want to be no fucking lame hero..." He told her as he looked at the leg in his lap. Katsuki was sitting beside Izuku on the ground as she lay on her stomach. "I'm going to be King of the Mountain tribes one day... Then the whole world."

"The whole world...?" Izuku asked him and looked at him curiously.

"Yeah... I want the power to obliterate all those stupid fucking demons." He looked down at her with his sharp ruby red eyes. "And I'll do that with my own power," He looked up at the sky now. "Then I'll take the throne from the King, and become the ultimate power in the land."

"... That's a pretty big dream... Especially with out the sword from the legend!" Izuku said with a thought and she looked up at the sky too, before looking back at him. "But... I think you can do it!"

"Moron, of course I'll do it!" He snapped at her, before he felt the egg shift in his lap. "Ah.."

"Is it...?" She pushed herself up onto her knee's and looked at the egg as it jiggled in his lap.

"It's hatching.." He said with a panicked look on his face.

"It's okay! I've got the notes!" she shouted as she held up her book and he looked at her incredulously.

"The notes I gave you." He told her in a grumbled and watched her smile nervously.

"Well here." She pulled something out of a yellow bag she brought with her every day and he saw it was a blanket. She folded it up on the ground and he placed the egg on it. "This is so exciting, Kacchan...!"

"Geez, what a stupid fucking name..." He grumbled out at her, and she laughed before the egg jiggled some more.

"OH!" She grabbed his hand and gripped it tightly. "It's hatching!" She said excitedly as some cracks appeared. She lowered her head to watch it with interest before she felt him tug on her hand.

"Don't sit so close, they sometimes breath fire when they hatch.." Katsuki looked at her with angry eyes.

"Haha, alright." She smiled up at him and he grumbled out in anger and looked back at the egg.

"Here it comes..." He said as they watched for a long half an hour. The shell finally broke apart, and a small red leathery creature tumbled out of it.

"It's shell is stuck on it's head...!" She said said worriedly and went to pull it off.

"Idiot, don't!" Katsuki grabbed her other hand and pulled it back. "Let it do that by itself, they're smart." He told her as he looked her in the eyes, before they both looked back at the dragon. They watched it stumble a bit, before the shell went blasting off from a stream of flames the tiny creature let out. "See, smart... and fire." He said with a sigh.

"It's so cute..." She gushed out happily as the dragon looked around at it's surroundings, before it turned it's head to look up at the both of them at the same time.

"Shit..." Katsuki grumbled out as he watched the dragon look back and forth between them. "I forgot... The first person they see is the one they imprint on..."

"Imprint...?" Izuku asked worriedly and he grumbled.

"The one it thinks is it's mom." He told her in a grunt as the dragon continued to look at them. "But it's seeing two people... I don't know what will happen..."

"Uhm..." Izuku looked at the creature nervously as it sniffed her knee's, before sniffing Katsuki's. She gripped both his hands tightly as she watched it eye them both up, before it climbed up onto Katsuki's legs and sniffed at their hands. It looked at her, then at Katsuki once more, before it jumped up onto his shoulder and settled there, sniffing his hair. "haha... I think it chose you...!" Izuku said with a bright smile. "That's great...!"

"Well yeah, considering it can't live with you..." Katsuki sighed out as he touched the dragon that settled around his neck. He looked back at her as she watched it with excited eyes. "But It's probably going to think you're an important person, so I wouldn't worry about it liking you." He told her before pulling his hands from hers. He touched the dragon along it's back, and it let out a purring like sound. "The fuck should we name it...?"

"Baku..." Izuku said happily and he looked at her in confusion. "That's part of your tribe name, right? Let's name him Baku."

"... Good enough." He grumbled out as he looked at the dragon and went to stand up.

"I guess I should head home..." Izuku said with a sigh as she collected her things. Katsuki watched her with interest as she shoved the stuff back into that ridiculous yellow bag she had. "I'll come by again some time...!"

"Well tell me when, moron." He told her with a grunt. "So I can be here."

"Hmm, how about in 5 days?" She asked him, and grinned. "At noon!"

"Fine, see you then." He told her with a grunt. "Don't die on your way."

"I won't!" She called out to him before she took off back home.

Five days later, Izuku packed up some snacks into her bag along with her note book. She ran for the door, making sure she had her gloves in her pocket.

"Izuku, are you going out again?" Her mother Inko called out to her from the kitchen.

"Yeah! I'm gunna go meet Kacchan again!" she shouted out with a smile. "I'll be home for dinner!"

"Be careful of demons!" Inko shouted out after her daughter.

Izuku took off at a run through the forest, a bright smile plastered on her face. She was excited to see the growth of the dragon after the days they had spent apart. She continued running, seeing the break in the tree's ahead of her. She felt her heart pounding happily as she leaped out over a bush, before her eyes widened in horror. She slid to a stop in the dirt as she looked out at 4 demons that looked like the one from the other day. She felt her heart stop in her chest as they all turned to snarl in her direction.

"Ka... Kach..." She choked on her words as she looked around for him. He was always here first... dd these demons get him? She saw no trace of him, and she felt her eyes water as the demons approached her. "Kacchan..." She choked out, her legs freezing up. There was no way she could win against four demons... She barely survived the last one. She let out a scream as the demons shot towards her, and she ran towards the cliff.

"IZUKU!" She heard her name from the air, and looked up to see him dropping out of the air towards the demons. Her eyes widened as she saw the dragon was at least 5 feet long now, much bigger than both the children. "WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT ALMOST GETTING EATEN?!" He shouted at her as he landed with a band on one demon. He pried it's mouth open with his hand and blasted it in the mouth.

"Th-They were here when I got here!" She shouted as she ran away from the two that continued to chase her while one went after Katsuki. "R-Run...! Gotta run...!" She cried out, before a demon launched itself at her. She screamed out as she was pounced upon, and looked up at the horrible open mouth of the demon that bared down on her. "KACCHAN!"

"IZUKU!" He shouted out at her, and they both heard an ear piercing screech about their heads. Izuku looked up at the dragon, Baku, as it swept down over the demon and ripped it off her with it's claws. It tossed the demon to the side as Katsuki came running in her direction. "Get up! Run!"

"I-I hurt my leg..!" she cried out, seeing the claw marks from the demon that pounced on her. She looked up at the other one that was coming in on her. She yanked her gloves out of her pocket, and pulled one on in time to catch it's mouth in time, but it's teeth sunk into her other hand. She bit back her cries of pain as Katsuki slid in next to her, and blasted his hand into the demons mouth. He looked down at her, huffing for breath as she clutched her bleeding hand to her chest.

"Get up...!" He shouted at her as he grabbed her by the arm and pulled it around his shoulder. "BAKU!" He shouted at the dragon as it did away with the demon from earlier. "GET THE LAST ONE!" He shouted, pointing at the last demon that was coming towards them. Katsuki gripped Izuku's arm tightly as the demon leaped at them, it's jaws open, Baku would be too late.

"N-Now...!" Izuku cried out as she reached her gloved hand out and grabbed the demon by it's upper mouth. Katsuki looked at her with wide eyes, before he stuck his hand out into the throat of the demon and blasted it with his quirk. The two children let out sighs of relief as the black mist of the demons bodies disappeared. "That was scary...!" Izuku cried out from beside him, and he looked down at her. She held open her bleeding hand, and looked at it worriedly.

"Your hand..." Katsuki sat her down on a rock and looked at the opened wound.

"It's alright," She said with a laugh as she looked at him. His angry red eyes snapped to look up at her emerald ones.

"It's not alright," He said with a growl and he grabbed a flask off his hip and dumped the water over her wound. She bit back her tears of pain as the water washed away most of the blood. "It's not too deep.." He looked at the bite mark on her palm, before he brought it up to his mouth. Izuku blushed a bright red as she felt his tongue lick over her wound and she tried to jerk her hand from his, but he glared at her in anger.

"Wh-Wh-What are you doing?!" she cried out, her whole face red.

"Disinfecting..." He told her with annoyance in his eyes. "Now hold still." He told her before he opened up her bag she had let drop on the ground. "You always have crap in here.." He pulled out a roll of cloth. "Figures you have bandages..." He said before he ripped some off and wrapped it around her hand for her. "There... Let's see your leg..." He lifted her leg now but she jerked it out of his grasp.

"I-It's alright...!" She said in a panic, not sure she could stand watching him lick her leg.

"... Let me see it." He growled out at her and Izuku shook nervously before he grabbed her ankle and yanked on it. He looked down at it and sighed. "It's just a scrape, you'll be okay." He said as he dumped water on it and wrapped it up. "Idiot... How do you get into so much danger..?"

"I-I don't know... I've never seen so many demons here before..." Izuku said with a frown as she looked down at him.

"... Neither have we..." He glared at the ground as Baku came up beside him when he stood up. "... Which is why my Tribe is moving..." He looked back at her and she felt a pain in her chest.

"What...?" She asked nervously, and her eyes widened as he looked away from her. "Y-You mean... we can't..."

"We can't see each other anymore..." He told her with a grunt.

"Oh..." Izuku felt tears well in her eyes and he looked back a her. "Uhm... That is... I'll..." She felt her tears fall down her cheeks as she looked at the ground. "I'm sad... I'll miss you..."

"Idiot..." she looked up at him as he grabbed her face and rubbed her tears away with his rough fingers. "I brought you something." He told her with a grunt as he reached up to his ear. She looked up at the many earrings he wore, and he took a red bead one off the top of his ear. "There's a tradition in my tribe, if you want to be with some one for ever, you give them an earring..." He looked down at her. "This way, we'll see each other again some day."

"But... I don't have any holes in my ear..." She sobbed out as she tried to dry her tears.

"... I know... So this is going to hurt." He looked away from her with a grumble, before looking back.

"What...?" She looked up at him with a shocked expression.

"I'm gunna put it in your ear. Only we can take them off, so this way you'll never loose it." He told her as he leaned close to her and looked at her ear. "I'll put it on the top, okay? It's gunna hurt, but not a lot."

"uhm..." Izuku blushed as she felt a few more tears fall down her cheeks. "Alright..." She said in a small voice, and she looked at him. He looked back at her for a moment, before looking to her ear. He touched the top part of them, and she felt her cheeks grow hotter as his fingers tickled her skin. There was a sharp pain and a click. "Ouch...!"

"I said it was gunna hurt." He sighed out as he stood up and Izuku touched her ear as it burned hot. "There... This way we're guaranteed to meet again."

"... Really..?" She looked up at him and he let out a growl of annoyance.

"Why would I lie about that crap?" He asked her, looking away before he looked back down at her. He jumped in a panic as he saw her sobbing into her hands. "Why are you still crying?!"

"B-Because I'm still going to miss you! I've never had a friend before!" She told him through her tears.

"Idiot... You'll be fine." He told her as he wiped her tears away from her cheeks again. "I'll come back to see you, alright?"

"You promise...?" She sobbed out, and wiped at her cheeks.

"I promise..." Katsuki told her, and pressed his forehead to hers.

Present day

Izuku had grown into a beautiful 16 year old girl, her dark green curls long, and freckles on her face from being in the sun. She was out in the forest gathering herbs for her small village, and she looked out at the trees fondly as she remembered the days from her childhood, and the Mountain Tribe boy named Katsuki. She hadn't seen him since that day, and the threat of demons in the mountains was growing do to how close they were to the badlands. She looked towards the direction of the valley she used to spend time with him in, and wondered if he was doing alright... Her fingers went up to the earring on the top of her right ear that was hidden by her curls, the ruby color reminded her of his eyes, and she felt her cheeks heat up a bit.

"Liar..." she sighed out as she knelt down to pick some herbs. "When do you plan on coming back, huh...?" She sighed out as she gathered the herbs into a basket. She hurried back to her village, and entered her house. Her mother was busy boiling some herbs on the fire. "I'm back, mom."

"Izu dear,Thank you." Her mother smiled at her as she took the herbs. "Thank you, with your father gone, you're truly a life saver."

"... Can we talk about it now...?" Izuku looked up at her mother who looked back at her. "... About my wanting to be an Hero..."

"Sweety, I know you want to see the world, but it's so dangerous out there." Her mother frowned as she sorted the herbs. "I don't want to lose you too..."

"But Mom, it's my dream!" Izuku said with a sigh. "I want to see the world..."

"And find that boy?" Her mother asked and Izuku's cheeks heated up to a bright red.

"That's not the only reason..." She grumbled out as she rested her head on the table.

"I still don't approve... You don't even have a weapon other than your gloves." Inko looked back at her daughter worriedly. "And It's a long way to the nearest city..."

"Geez..." Izuku groaned out as she reached in her pocket and gripped the pair of gloves in there. "I could do it... I've defeated demons before..."

"With help, not by yourself." Inko turned back to the stove and Izuku sighed as she sat back up.

"I'm going to go outside..." she said with a grumble as she headed to her room. She removed her dress, and pulled on a pair of trousers before she went out side. She looked up as she pulled her gloves onto her hands, and eyes up the make shift dummy she had made to practice on. She clenched her fists, letting them glow green before she began throwing punches at the dummy.

"Izu! Make sure you don't hurt your hands again!" Her mother called out and Izuku let out groan of annoyance.

"I'm fi-" She started to yell back at her mother before she heard a loud boom from the village. She looked up as she saw flames rising above the roof tops and screams. "What...?"

"IZU! GET INSIDE!" Her mother shouted out the window, but Izuku clenched her fists and ran towards the flames quickly. "IZUUUUKUUUU!"

"Some one might be hurt!" she shouted out as she ran to the village they lived on the outskirts of. She looked around as she saw flames roaring on the rooftops of some homes. Her eyes widened in horror as she rounded around a building, and looked up to see a massive humanoid like creature. It had horns and leathery skin and wings. She shook a bit with fear as she saw it clutching some children in it's claws. People ran away screaming, looking for weapons of some kind as the demon raged and destroyed some buildings. This was a type of demon she had never seen before...

"Some one! My children!" One of the lades she knew well in the village cried out, before the demon smashed another building. Izuku's eyes looked to the blood that spilled everywhere, and she clenched her fists tightly as she looked up at the demon, glaring. She kicked off the ground at a run, there was no time to think, she had to save the kids...

"Good thing I bought these shoes..." She said as she ran. The red boots she wore glowed a soft green, utilizing the quirk she had to power her speed a bit more. "I'm coming!" she shouted loudly as she ran past a burning building and some people running away screaming. She looked up at the clawed hand the children were in, and then up at the demon. She had to make it let go... "HEEEEEEY!" She screamed loudly up at the demon and it looked to her as she grabbed a pitchfork from the ground. "LET GO OF THEM! I'M MUCH TASTIER!" She shouted as she hucked the pitchfork at the demon with all her strength. She watched it impale the demons eye and she dove with her arms stretched out to catch the kids that fell. She slid to a stop on the ground, before spilling across it in a roll. She let them go and they ran off towards the mother as Izuku pushed herself up off the ground. She whipped her head around to look up at the demon, and clenched her fists tightly as it turned to screech at her. She dove out of the way of it's claws, and scrambled to her feet. She looked up to see the edge of the village... She had to lead it away... It was angry at her now. She made a run for it, and could hear the demon chasing after her. She broke into the tree line, grinding her teeth together. It was better her than any more people... She looked back as a tree came crashing her way and she dove to the side, gasping as she tried to catch her breath. She pushed herself up, but felt something grab her around the middle. The breath she caught was squeezed out of her as the Demon picked her up, and she looked back at it with wide eyes as it screeched at her... This was her final moments... She'd never see the Mountain boy again...

"DO NOT FEAR!" She heard a booming laugh, followed by an actual boom and gust of wind. She looked away from the demon towards a large man who was about ten feet away. "FOR I AM HEEEEREEEE!" He shouted with another laugh, and she saw the glint of metal as the man drew a sword. She groaned out as the demon squeezed her, reaching out to attack the new comer, but the man swung the sword, and Izuku held up her hand to stop the shining golden light from blinding her. He swung it in a great arch, before a loud blast came off the blade. She watched as the attack cut right through the large demon that had her, and it screeched out it's dying breath, before turning into black mist. Izuku groaned as she fell to the ground, expecting a bone crushing landing, but instead some one had caught her.

"My my! Sorry about that!" the man laughed loudly and she looked up at the huge person as he set her down on her feet. "I bet that must have been scary! I heard this area has been having a lot of trouble with demons lately, so I came to take a look personally!"

Izuku looked up at the bulky muscle of the man, and saw he wore a regal red coat and blue trousers. A grin was plastered on his face, and he sheathed the sword on his back. He looked down at her, and saw his hair was golden, and his bangs were in a distinctive V shape... She felt realization click in her head. She had heard the stories of The King of The World... how he was impossibly massive for a human, and had that distinctive hair... How his laugh was like thunder, and his presence was hard to miss...

"Y-you're..." she stuttered out, raising a shaking finger. "Th-The... K-King of The World... H-His highness... All Might...!"

"WHAHAHAHA! So my reputation proceeds me even out here!" The man laughed loudly as she fell back on her bottom in shock. "Yes, my dear girl! I am! But I'm on a mission you see! I need to make it to the Yuuei guild here in this region but I got a bit lost!"

"The Yuuei Guild...?!" Izuku asked in surprise. She knew that name too from her research, She had always wanted to adventure there to become a hero...

"Yes! But then I happened upon this village, and well, I saw a brave young lady running towards a demon with out a weapon!" the man laughed loudly again as he looked down at her shocked face. "That was very daring of you! Are you a Hero?"

"N-No... M-My mom says I can't be one with out a weapon to handle my quirk..." Izuku stuttered out as she got up to her feet.

"WELL THEN," The man laughed loudly, "I suppose she's right! But you know, the world needs more heroes out there who run into danger with out thinking!"

"Well I..." Izuku looked down at her gloves and bit her lip. "... I really want to become one, I want to do it no matter what, even if I don't have a weapon!" she said as she clenched her fists and looked up at the man. "I'll definitely do it!"

"My my, how brave!" The man laughed before another boom startled them. Izuku looked up at the tree's and saw two of the same large demons looming over them. Her eyes went wide before she felt a large hand pull her back out of the way. "STAND BACK! I'VE GOT THIS!" He shouted as he drew his sword once again. Izuku looked up at him, as she saw him run towards the demon and swing the blade. He cleaved one of them half with the amazing power from the sword, before the other demon reached a hand out towards him, but King All Might swung his blade again and cut through the third massive demon with ease.

"Wow..." Izuku clenched her fists as she watched him and he turned to look back at her, still grinning. She felt her own smile spread across her face, and she ran towards him. "WOW! THAT WAS AMAZING!" she shouted happily, "You're so amazing! I want to be like that some day!"

"Hmm." the King looked down at her as she grinned up at him. "Perhaps... Now. You mentioned your mother won't et you head to the Yuuei Guild with out a weapon...?" He asked her curiously and she frowned and nodded her head. He seemed to think that over, before he sheathed his sword again. "Lead me to her."

Izuku and the King walked through the village, and she looked around at it with sad eyes as she saw the damage. The village people were already cleaning up the mess, and taking care of the wounded. Izuku frowned as she looked away from the bodies that were pulled from the crushed houses, she had been to late to distract that demon from them...

"Does this happen often out here..?" He asked her with a frown as he looked around at the village.

"It's gotten worse over the years... A few mountain tribes had to move away from the area as well because of the proximity to the badlands..." Izuku sighed out, "Heroes don't come out this far either, which is why I want to become one... I want to travel the world, but also protect it..." She clenched her fists tightly. "To keep things like this from happening..."

"Izuku...!" The woman from earlier with the children came running and threw her arms around her. "Izuku... Thank you so much for saving my children! I'm so glad you're okay... that was so brave!"

"It's alright!" Izuku smiled at her and hugged her back. "I'm glad that you are all okay," Izuku comforted the woman who sobbed, before she left.

"... Those children would have died if you didn't step in..." All Might spoke to her and Izuku looked up at him curiously. "But you almost did as well..."

"I had too..." Izuku looked away from him as she continued on their path to her house. "... My legs started moving before my mind... But in the end I'm glad that happened." Izuku let out a shaky sigh as they came up to her home.

"IZUKU!" Her mother threw the door open, startling both Izuku and All Might as the woman cried hysterically. "YOU GAVE E A HEART ATTACK, RUNNING OFF LIKE THAT!"

"S-Sorry mom..." Izuku looked at her nervously. "But I save some of the kids... I had too."

"SO DANGEROUS!" The woman cried out loudly and hugged Izuku. She then looked up at All Might who was grinning nervously down at her. "Who is this...?"

"Oh, this is the man who saved me uhm..." Izuku looked up at All Might, "He's the... King of The World... All Might."

"The King... All Might...?" Inko looked up at the mountain of a man, and Izuku panicked as her mother fainted right there.

"Oh my!" All Might laughed loudly as he helped Izuku with her mother into the house. She slowly came back around, and looked up at All Might who sat in a chair that was far too small for him. "What a lovely home!"

"Th-Th-Th-The King... Of the W-W-W-W-World is in... O-Our house..." Inko stuttered out and Izuku handed her some tea to calm her. "What on earth for?!"

"Well, When I happened upon the scene of chaos," All Might nodded his head in thanks as Izuku handed him some tea too. "I saw this girl bravely fighting the demons! What a sight!" He laughed loudly and Inko shook nervously. "It made me think! You see, I'm on my way to the Yuuei Guild! A Guild for young heroes to be! I thought to myself, Well why isn't this girl there already!?" He laughed again and Inko looked to Izuku before back up at the man. "She said it's because she has no weapon! WELL! I'm here to solve that!"

"What...?" Izuku and Inko asked in confusion at the same time.

"I'd like to take the girl with me on my journey! It's not far from here I believe. I think she would make an excellent Hero!" All Might grinned at them both and Izuku felt her face pale. "But I figured I should ask her mother first!"

"But... It's so dangerous...!" The woman stuttered out. "But then again... This is the King of the World..."

"Mom..." Izuku looked to her mother who looked up at her in surprise. "I'd like to go... I've always wanted to be a hero, and now I have a more than safe way of getting there, and maybe getting a weapon suited for my quirk!" Izuku held up her fists. "I want to do this!"

"... Izuku..." Her mother burst out into tears. "... I... I'll miss you... I'll be so lonely... But... I can't stop you now, can I...? This opportunity is to good to pass up..."

"Mom.." Izuku hugged her mother tightly and All Might laughed loudly.

"I'll make sure she gets a weapon, and that she gets any training she needs to become a proper hero!" All Might said with a grin. "Your daughter will be safe with me, I guarantee it!"

A few hours later, Izuku had packed the things she needed in her big yellow bag, and pulled her hair up into a crown braid around her head. She pulled on a green vest, and some beige trousers to travel in. He made her boots were on tight, before she stepped outside to see the King receiving a map from her mother.

"Now... I wrote out the directions for you both, but Izuku can read maps very well." Inko told the king. "Make sure you follow this properly, it shouldn't take long for you to arrive at the guild."

"THANK YOU!" All Might boomed loudly and they both turned to look at Izuku as she gripped the strap of her bag around her chest. "My! What a fine looking hero!"

"Izuku... Be safe!" Inko cried out as she hugged her daughter tightly and kissed her cheek. "I'll be here if you ever want to come back..."

"thanks mom..." Izuku hugged her mother tightly, before she looked up to All Might as he grinned proudly at them both. "Let's go..." she said with a happy grin before they headed off on their path. All Might handed her the map and she looked at it to make sure they were heading in the right direction. "I'm so excited... I can't wait to receive my own weapon..." she said excitedly. "I wonder what I should get... A knife? An axe...? Maybe a bow and arrow? Ah but, a handheld weapon would be best for my quirk type..."

"How about a sword?" All Might asked her and she looked up at him curiously.

"A sword...? I guess... The way you handle yours is so amazing, I want one like it if I go that route!" Izuku said happily as she thought about that.

"How about receiving my sword...?" the man asked her and Izuku looked up at him in shock now.

"your sword... But..." She thought about that, and bit her lip. "But... How would you fight...? and I don't think it's designed for my quirk..."

"Young Izuku..." He looked down at her as they walked and let out a booming laugh. "I shall explain all to you!"

They came to an inn along the road, and stopped at it for the evening. The King let out a sigh as they set foot in their room, and looked to Izuku who was still thinking about what he had said earlier.

"... I still don't understand..." She said with a thought. "You want to give me your sword..?" she looked up at All Might curiously.

"Let me explain for a moment." The king said as he unhooked the sheath from his shoulders and set the sword down on the table in the room. There was a boom and the room filled up with steam. Izuku looked around in a panic before it cleared. Her eyes landed on a skeletal man, and she cried out in horror. "SSSH! It's me!" He said waving his hands around before he bulked back up. Izuku fell back into a chair in shock as she saw this happen, before he shrunk back down to the skeletal form from before. She blinked in surprise as she saw him wipe some blood form his mouth.

"I-I don't get it..." She said in confusion as she thought everything over. "Wh-What's going on?"

"This is what I need to explain." He sat down, and she looked at him oddly, seeing the regal clothing he wore early was now all baggy around his tiny form. "About 5 years ago, there was an altercation with the demons that came from the Badlands, and I went to confront it..."

"I remember that..." Izuku said with wide eyes, "A lot of the injured people passed through our village..."

"Yes... It was a great battle, and during that battle... I was injured." He lifted his jacket up to show a horrible scar on his stomach. "The demon took a fair chunk out of me in the battle, but I was able to put him down. Because of this wound... It is hard for me to move about with out my sword." He looked to the sword in question. "And using the sword for too long causes y great strain... I was just barely able to make it those few hours till we arrived here." He laughed out and blood spurted from his mouth, shocking Izuku again.

"Th-then what are you doing going to the Yuuei Guild...?" Izuku asked nervously, "And why would you ask me to come with you? This seems like a pretty important secret I shouldn't know about!"

"Well, that's the thing." All Might raised a finger and grinned at her. "I'm heading to the Yuuei guild because my time as King of the World is growing shorter... And I need to find a successor to receive my sword!"

"Your sword...?" Izuku thought back again. "I still don't get it... that sword shouldn't work with any other quirk other than yours, what do you mean by giving it to me or some one...?"

"I'm sure you heard of the legend of the ancient sword, One for All that the Great King wielded." All Might looked at her seriously and she nodded her head. "That sword One for All, is a powerful weapon, that can work with anyone's quirk... It can also grant power to those who do not have one, like myself..." He smiled at her as she paled.

"You... Don't have a quirk...?" She asked nervously and he nodded his head.

"But because this sword was passed to me, I was granted with power greater than anyone's from this sword..." He looked up at her with those serious eyes again. "when I saw you back there, fighting that demon, with out a weapon... I saw the brave face of a girl who wanted nothing more than to save lives, and protect her village..." He stood up and looked down at her. "Izuku Midoriya... I came on this journey to find a worthy successor to receive the legendary sword, One for All... I thought I'd find one at the Yuuei guild... But instead I found you." Izuku felt tears burning in her eyes as he spoke to her, as she felt an overwhelming feeling in her chest. "I would like to bestow this sword upon some one worthy, and I think that you are the most worthy. You protected people with out a second thought, and fought bravely."

"Y-Your Highness..." Izuku choked out through her tears as he looked at her so seriously. She put a hand to her mouth to try and stopped her sobs.

"... I'll ask you right now... Would you be willing to receive this sword, work to become the next King of the World as the owner of One for All?" She felt her whole being shift with the pressure of the question and she choked back her tears and nodded her head. "What kind of reply is that...?"

"YES SIR!" She shouted loudly, and her tears flowed down her cheeks. "This is such an honor!"

"The honor is mine. I can see within you the need to protect others and fight back those dastardly demons that encroach on us," All Might laughed loudly. "I'm proud to have met you! I think you will be a wonderful King!"

"Uh..." Izuku came to a realization and her head swirled. "K-K-King..." She choked out as she put her hands on her head.

"Yes, but first! We need to get to the Yuuei guild!" He looked down at her with a broad grin. "I can't give you the sword now, because we need to train you up to receive it! But I'm sure by the time we arrive you will be able to handle it's strength!"

"That's only a month..." Izuku looked up at him with her head still spinning. "Is that... long enough?"

"Well, you have a pretty strong grasp of how to use your quirk, and you seem like a fit girl!" All Might laughed loudly again. "I think it should go over just fine!"

"But what about you...?" She looked from him to the sword then back. "If I receive the sword..."

"Do not worry about that!" All Might patted her on the head and ruffled her hair. "I have a sword waiting for me at the guild, one I can use while we get you into fitting shape."

"This one is so big though..." Izuku looked over at the blade, She was only about 148cm in height... and the sword was definitely taller than her.

"That's the surprising thing about One for All!" All Might laughed loudly. "It takes on a form fitting to it's user."

"This is so much..." Izuku looked into her hands, feeling her head spin again.

"It's time to sleep, we need to leave early in the morning." All Might grinned at her before he land down in his own bed. Izuku let out a sigh as she crawled into her bed, and pulled the covers up to her chin. She closed her eyes as she thought about what happened, not completely understanding it all...

The King of the World, All Might... He wanted her to receive the legendary sword of power and become the next King... She gripped her blankets as she tried to think back to her happy childhood days like she normally did when trying to sleep.

That night, for the first time in years, she dreamt about the Mountain Tribe Boy...
