A/N : This is the official redo of Elemental Midoriya, I've already posted this chapter on the other story to build some traction for it, BUT I hope any new readers like this new retake on the story. Enjoy!
"Wow Bakugo! That's an amazing quirk!" exclaimed the elementary school teacher and the other added. "That's a great quirk for a pro hero!"
Both teachers expressed praise for the spiky blonde.
Popping sounds travel through everyone's ears and everyone is impressed with the way Katsuki Bakugo continues with his quirk, Explosion.
Tiny explosions similar to fireworks emerge from his tiny palms.
"Woah! Midoriya! You too! Your quirk, it manifested!" a winged student pointed out the green haired child holding a bright flame.
"Midoriya! You too, you've got an excellent quirk for pro material! Both seem to be fire-based as well." Their male teacher noted.
Both Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugo had been friends since their parents introduced them at such young ages, the two had actually thought they were brothers until Midoriya's mom, Inko, had told them the opposite, even Bakugo's parents Mitsuki and Masaru. Still, this didn't deter their inevitable friendship that would grow in this moment, the day their quirks manifested.
"I'm surprised Midoriya! You're so much younger than Bakugo! It must be a super strong quirk! What do you think it is?" the female teacher noted and asked the green haired youngling.
"I think his quirk is like Endeavor's!" a long-fingered child noted, referencing the flame hero, Endeavor.
"That's right! It does look like Endeavor's!" another child asked. "Are you his kid Midoriya?"
"Pfft, Midoriya's dad isn't Endeavor! I've seen his dad! I know his mom too!" Bakugo spouted.
"Umm, I th-think it might be, p-p-pyro… pyrokine-e… umm.. Pyrokinesis!" Midoriya said proudly, trying to sound out the word he learned on TV. "Kacchan, you have a super cool quirk! Is it Fireworks? Explosions? What do you think it is?" Midoriya walked over holding a flame in his hand, making sure not to burn anyone for anything.
"I think I'll call it Explosion. It sounds so much cooler than your Pyrokinesis!"
The two teachers let the two boys continue their quirk in a contained area outside while they contacted the Midoriya residence, and the Bakugo residence.
"Midoriya, who's quirk do you think is stronger?" The blonde asked while the two were outside. He continued to pop and crackle as he walked with an open palm.
"Umm, I don't know." Midoriya politely responded as he was following and holding the flame. "I don't know what else I can do with my quirk, I'm just holding it right now Kacchan."
"Hmm, I know!"
Bakugo had went to the toys labeled 'Quirk Toys' and found one meant for the students with fire powers to try them out safely. It was like a soccer goal with a sheet of of fireproof material meant to catch flames, prevent spread, and be durable. No one had one yet so it was covered with a thin layer of dust. The two boys pulled it out and set it in the middle of the area.
"Kacchan, you go first." Midoriya offered his friend a turn first at using their quirk on something.
"Okay, take a step back Izuku!" Bakugo shouted as he hit the material with a hard open palm and used his quirk.
An small boom was heard in the area. The net shot back and went back to its original sagging position. The fire emitted was caught and died out. Midoriya looked around with his flame and saw no flames were around the net, meaning Midoriya could try and not burn anything around.
Midoriya took his flame, stood a few meters away, and pushed out his palm and a stream of fire shot from his palm to the net.
"Kacchan look! I'm doing it!" Midoriya laughed and Bakugo asked if Midoriya was able to do it without premade fire. So Midoriya stopped his fire, made sure he didn't have one in his palm, and tried again.
"I can!"
"What about like, punching? You know, punching like All Might!" Bakugo exclaimed as he put his left fist proudly in the air, and did some small punches and kicks in the air.
"I can try Kacchan." Midoriya readied himself for any backlash and shoot forward a fist, and a small blast of fire came out, but it died out before it hit the net. "Hmm, maybe I didn't put in too much power. Let me try again Kacchan!"
"It's my turn though! I let you get two freebees with that punch and the one before!" Bakugo brought up as he walked over to the net to hit it with another explosion, then giving Midoriya a turn.
"Alright, so I should use more power then." Midoriya said receiving a nod from Bakugo and saw their male teacher enter the container area.
"You got it Midoriya! If anything catches fire I'll use my water quirk!" his teacher informed him.
Midoriya braced himself as he put more firepower into his punch. He didn't have much recoil if any, and his fire went well beyond his intention, it was a short yet large burst of fire. It got some fire left on the ground, but most was caught by the net.
"I got it!" Their teacher announced as he sprayed the water down with a finger that let loose a shower of water.
Once it was done the teacher looked at Midoriya and Bakugo and gave them some praise.
"I bet you two, that with training and learning, you two could become great heroes!"
"Thank you teacher!" the two friends applaud their teacher's swiftness to take out the fire. It may not be much, but it's always good to show children that people should do good things.
Their teachers takes a bow and begins a discussion.
"So, Bakugo, Midoriya, now that you've developed your quirks, it's time I need to go over some things with you two." he starts off. "We need to talk about the way you two activate your quirks, and what you all call them. I know you've already said what your quirks would be named, but we need to understand how your quirks work. Both of you seem to have emitter quirks from your hands. Take off your shoes and socks guys, try and use your quirk with your feet. I'll do it with you guys."
The three took off their shoes and socks and put them lined up by a door.
"Great, I can't do it, I can only shoot out water from my fingertips. But you guys, Bakugo, try and use your quirk on your feet, use the same feeling you do but try with your feet!"
Bakugo sat down and stuck his feet in the air, trying to use the same feeling he did before to ready an explosion, but his hands kept getting wet.
"I don't think my quirk can work with my feet, but my hands are getting really wet, and smells like burnt sugar." Bakugo stated bluntly.
"Hmm, burnt sugar, burnt sugar… hmmm…. I'll make a note of this and let you know soon Bakugo. It's fine that you can't use your quirk on your feet, but I think it might help with figuring out how your quirk works!" their teacher shoots Bakugo a kind smile and diverts his gaze to Midoriya. "Now you try Midoriya, you can punch with fire, but can you kick? Try to go for a sidekick aiming at the net!"
Midoriya nodded and smiled. He readied himself by stretching his legs so he could do his small kick.
Midoriya readied himself, taking in a deep breath and shooting off a kick remembering to pack a punch, but not to where it would go everywhere. It did work, and left no burn on his skin, but the fire dies out before it could hit the net.
"Wow Midoriya! So your emitter quirk can be used with both your hands and feet, both on the outside of your hands and your palm. Incredible, you two have amazing quirks!"
The two young boys had such wild smiles on their faces being told that their quirks were amazing.
"Midoriya, your father's quirk, it's fire breathing right?"
"Y-yeah, he can breathe fire!"
"You try it, see if it's possible! I'll be here in case anything goes wrong, I'm a professional." Their teacher adds.
Midoriya gets ready, standing a few meters from the net, takes in a deep breath, and blows towards the net but nothing comes out.
"Hmm, what do you two think about when your quirks work?" Their teacher sits them both down.
"Well, in class I was dozing off and thinking about the firecrackers that go off at New Year's." Bakugo tells
"I-I kind of think of a candle's flame." Midoriya coffessed.
"Those are mighty fine things to conjure up to activate your quirks, right now you have to keep focused when you use it, but over time they'll become idle thoughts and you won't really have to think about it!" Their teacher says, "But you can use these thoughts to channed the amount of power your quirk releases, but you need to be mindful with how much firepower you guys are able to withstand with your current bodies and you need to make sure you don't hurt anyone with your quirks. It's a bad thing to do. I know you two would like to be heroes, so I'll tell you this. Heroes don't hurt people if they're not doing anything wrong, now I wanna hear you say that."
"Heroes don't hurt people if they're not doing anything wrong." The two boys repeated in unison.
"Good. Now, Midoriya, do you want to try and breathe fire again or leave it alone?" the teacher asked the emerald-eyed boy.
"I'll try it one more time!" Midoriya got up and went back to the net.
Midoriya took a breath in, thought of a campfire this time instead of a candle, and breathed out a jet of fire.
Flames shot out of the boy's mouth and was caught inside the net. Once Midoriya had run out of breath taking in a deep one and letting go a soft and long exhale, some small embers danced in the air.
"Incredible!" their teacher exclaimed with Bakugo looking in amazement of his friend being able to control his fire quirk in an amazing way.
"Is your quirk actually Pyrokinesis? You generate your own flames, similar to Endeavor, but his quirk is called Hell Fire, so maybe you can pick a cooler name!" Bakugo spouts out with his hero fanboy knowledge.
"That's true Bakugo, Midoriya generates his own flames instead of manipulating other flames, but I'm sure Midoriya can try and manipulate other flames, but we don't have the right equipment to test it." Their teacher looks from Bakugo to Midoriya. "Midoriya, what else would you like to call your fire quirk?"
Midoriya thought about it for a moment as he conjured up a small flame he tossed around in his hands and kicked up with his feet like it was a soccer ball.
"What about calling it Firebending Izuku?" Bakugo offered watching Midoriya move around some flames like a little showman. "Or like Magic Flames since it looks like magic a little."
"I like the name Firebending, Kacchan." Midoriya said as he threw the flame in the net trying a small trick, two punches with his fists and a small kick into the net causing it to push back a little.
"Nice combo!" their teacher gave some praise. "Bakugo, you try something!"
Bakugo stood and went to the net, so far his quirk allowed him to be good in close and medium encounters, so he tried out a run towards the net from far and starting to use his quirk at a medium distance till he got close and was able to move the net somewhat with a final blast.
"Wow Kacchan! You're amazing!" Midoriya exclaimed
"Definitely a quirk meant for a Pro! But remember Bakugo, it's good to not let praise get to your head. Midoriya, you'll make sure of that, I've seen you two are close." Their teacher talks to both of the young four year old boys and asks them to repeat the statement about heroes before and some other rules about their quirks and the next process in their lives.
"I know you two have had some fun with your quirks, but remember that you can't use them in public. After school today you boys will be going to see a quirk doctor, you'll go over your quirks and will be treated like a yearly physical. You'll also be able to see how your quirk will grow with you as well and how they relate to your bodies and potential capabilities. One more thing boys. Sometimes your quirks will activate on their own by accident since for now you might not have full control over your quirks. An example would be fore Bakugo, you'd get gloves to wear if your quirk activates on its own. Midoriya would probably get gloves or sock or some special shoes. That's all there is now, c'mon, we've been outside for a bit messing around, go inside, I'll handle cleanup!"
The blond and green haired boys walk back to their class after a routine talk about their quirks which was required by the government to address some things to the children by teachers about their quirks and the process with their doctors the day their quirks manifested. In a world where 80% of the population have quirks, this was a common norm in many countries.
After school Bakugo and Midoriya went off to their doctors for a checkup and quirk.
"Mr and Mrs Bakugo, your son, Katsuki, his quirk, would you like to know the details as to how it works?" Their doctor asked, wearing a light blue blouse, black pants and black shoes, she looked at some notes based on a quirk test and potentialities of Bakugo's quirk.
"Yeah, I'd like to hear about my son's kick-ass quirk!" Mitsuki Bakugo replied to the doctor.
"Alright, well his quirk he's dubbed Explosion, he secretes a nitroglycerin type sweat from his hands which he can ignite with heated palms. He should also be able to control the amount is secreted, and his explosions are correlated to the amount of sweat he's able to secrete. He shouldn't do any huge explosions for a long while, he'll need a stable and strong body in order to handle the force of the explosions, so if he wants to become a pro, it would be pretty good for him to start training his body around 7 or 8 years old, so in about 3 to four years."
"Oh, so it's like my quirk, kinda, but he can control the sweat he creates and can make explosions at will. That's pretty cool Katsuki." Masaru comments as he runs his hands through his son's spiky blonde hair.
"Damn, that's a pretty kick ass quirk there champ." Mitsuki spouts while pinching his son's cheek.
"Since his quirk deals with his hands, he'll need some gloves that help prevent harm to others if it activates on accident, thankfully we have appropriate ones for him, so Katsuki, what color do you want? We've got blue, white, red, orange, and green."
"Umm, I'll go with orange please!" Bakugo says so politely.
"Awesome, I'll have someone come by to drop them off. Now, let's get to the actual check up, take off your shoes and step on the scale." Bakugo's doctor commands with a polite tone.
Midoriya and his mom had a different doctor, he was a bald with a bushy grey mustache and dark glasses. He was normally a very relaxed doctor, but today he was excited due to information he would relay to Inko and Izuku about Izuku's quirk.
"Well, today is an incredible day, your son Inko, currently he has this 'Firebending' quirk, but it's actually much more than that. What is your quirk and your husband's quirk?" their doctor asks in a an almost out of breath and excited tone.
"Oh, uh, I can attract small objects so it's like telekinesis, and my husband can breathe fire. What do you mean Izuku's quirk is more than just 'Firebending'? Is that what you called it honey?" Inko looks down and asks her son while pulling his hair back to reveal his forehead to see his eyes and smile clearly from above.
"I see, this this is an extreme quirk difference. Normally, this quirk is something Izuku could get, but his quirk factor is showing there's more kinesis abilities yet to manifest. Do you want to hear about his quirk?" The doctor asks looking through his clipboard about notes on the potential about the quirk.
"Do you want to hear more about your quirk Izuku?" Inko looks down to see her boy nod and reply
"Yeah!"
"Okay, soooo, doo doo doo doo…" The doctor is scrolling through his notes until he finds Izuku's file for his quirk. "Ah, okay, so his 'Firebending' as he's dubbed, he's able to release fire through his palms, fists, mouth, and feet. That's a basic gist, but from his quirk factor, his quirk factor shows there's potential of more kinesis abilities."
"So firebending isn't Izuku's only quirk?" Inko asked
"Yes, he should be developing the others through the next years to come.I'm not sure how many, but the other quirks must relate to being a kinesis ability. But for now, I need to issue you some gloves and socks for your son's fire quirk. So Izuku, what color do you want? We don't have much, but we have green, pink, and light blue. You can also pick a different color for your socks and gloves if you'd like." The doctor explains and crouched to Izuku asking about the protective gloves and socks.
"Umm, I'll take both of them being green please." Izuku replies with politeness.
"Great, I'll have someone come by and do it while I get on with your physical Izuku, take off your shoes and get on the scale."
The end of the two boy's doctor visits lead to them both learning about each other's quirks, they later asked each other's mother's to video call each other to talk about their quirks.
"Yeah Kacchan! The doctor said I have more quirks coming soon! I can control more than just fire!" Izuku exclaimed while waving his hands around wearing the green gloves.
"My doctor said I need to start working out in like four years so I can make these huge explosions!" Katsuki motioned his orange gloved hands in an explosion motion above his head.
Out from the background of Bakugo was his mom.
"KATSUKI! GET DOWN HERE! DINNER IS READY!"
"Oh, Zuku, my mom's calling me for dinner, I'll see you in school tomorrow! Bye!"
"Bye Kacchan! I might eat soon as well!" Izuku replied with a goodbye and going off to the kitchen to see his mom making his favorite food, katsudon.
Inko and Izku sat across from each other while they ate some katsudon. It is Izuku's favorite food and Inko usually makes it for him on special events or when he needs a cheer up. Today was one of those special days, the emergence of Izuku's quirk.
"So Izuku, do you think we should video call your father soon? It's almost day time for him at work." Inko asks her son seeing him taking chomps out of his food, but once she asked her question, Izuku slowed down his eating pace.
"*gulp* Umm, I-I guess we can, mommy, when is he going to come back?" Izuku asks as he looks down and starts to pick at his food.
"W-Well, you know how he had to leave for work, right?"
"Yeah, I remember, b-but when do you think he'll come back?"
"I'm not sure baby…" Inko looked at her food and thought about what movies were out right now she could take young Izuku to, but there weren't any hero movies coming out or even out right now, but they did have some of Izuku's favorite's purchased. "Do you want to watch an old superhero movie?"
Izuku's eyes looked up to his mom shining with glee, his smile caused Inko to bust into a cheesy smile as well.
"Can I pick the movie?" Izuku asked with his mood going up
"Of course, but after you finish your dinner mister." Inko gave a soft reply
"Okay!" Izuku replied, almost forgetting the previous conversation about his father.
Hisashi Midoriya was overseas working to make more money for his family, he would always send most of his check over, but even so Inko decided to get a job in an office. Inko remains loyal to Hisashi, they do call and are very transparent with each other, but Izuku is not very close to Hisashi as he left before Izuku was 3.
Izuku has always looked for someone to be a strong father figure in his life, which is also part of the reason why Izuku likes going to the Bakugo household. He likes being around a 'full' family, but he does not deny the love his mother gives him.
Once the two finish dinner, Inko washes the few dishes and Izuku looks for a movie to pick.
"All Might? No, we said old superhero. So maybe The Flash? Spider-Man?" Izuku mumbles to himself as he tries to narrow down what he wants to watch. "Yeah, let's go with Spider-Man. 2000s Spider-Man? Amazing Spider-Man? MCU Spider-Man? Spider-Verse?" Izuku holds one movie box that has a cover depicting multiple types of Spider-Men. "Yeah, let's go with Spider-Verse." Izuku finally picks the movie.
Inko finishes up with the dishes as she walks over to Izuku to sit on their couch to watch the movie. "So Izuku, have you picked a movie yet?"
"Y-yeah, I thought we could watch the Spider-Verse movie!" Izuku replies with a smile
"I said an old movie Izuku, hehehe" Inko chuckles lightly. "But it's whatever you want baby, it's your day, your quirk came in so you choose."
"Okay!" Izuku simply replies as he goes to put the disk into the disk player. Once the movie is in he grabs the remote and brings it over to his mom to go through the menu.
Once the movie is playing Izuku is practically brought into the world of the movie.
Once the movie finishes, Izuku is already asleep and Inko is wiping her tears away with some tissues.
"Gosh I'm such a crybaby. I kind of hope Izuku does take that on as well." Inko says softly. She picks him up and carries him over to his All Might themed room. "Oh Izuku, I'm sure if you want to be a hero, you'll be great." Inko says softly as she runs her fingers gently through his messy green locks, leans in and gives him a kiss. She gets up and leaves the room quietly closing the door. She picks up her phone and gets in her room as she waits for Hisashi's call.
A/N : Hello, I hope you all liked this story. The stories I write are done with he help of Kfbanime87, such a cool guy to help out and shoot the shit for ideas and concepts to the story. He helped out with the name of the story even if it's not much different, just added in a word, but I was pulling out my hair thinking of another name cause I think the name Elemental Midoriya was really good. Anyways, please leave a review and I'll respond to it in the beginning of the next chapter, leaving some nice reviews, mean reviews, suggestions/ideas, etc. There are going to be changes to the original story if you want to check it out. Thanks for reading, leave a review if you'd like, follow and favorite if you'd like. Have a nice day! :)
My partner Kfbanime87 also works with other writers and one I really like was My Phantom Hero by thewhitetitan and it's pretty good, a crossover story of Danny Phantom from the Nickelodeon show, it's pretty cool.
