It was two days after the break in at the USJ and everyone was still feeling shaken up. Seeing the class mime not in his seat only made their dangerous encounter with villains even more real. For some they still couldn't get the sound of Izuku's guttural scream out of their head.
Noticing it was almost time for their sensei to start class, that is if Aizawa was even coming in, they all situated themselves into their seats. It was only a few minutes when to their surprise they were met with a limping Aizawa, covered in bandages.
"Shouldn't you still be in the hospital?" Kirishima asked. His injuries were probably the second worst ones out of everyone's. Baku-bro and Kendo injuries coming in after him.
"My injuries won't stop me from teaching." Aizawa said. "Also, I have an announcement for you all. The Sports Festival will be taking place in two weeks."
"Even though we just were attacked by villains?!" Kaminari asked. "And what about Midoriya, is he even gonna be here for the event?!"
The entire class went into an uproar at the mere thought of their resident mime having to miss out on such a big event. Their fellow classmate practically sacrificed himself for them and yet he would miss out on one of the most exciting, biggest show worthy school activities. In a lot of ways, it was unfair to them.
Aizawa sighed, he knew this news would be met with this type of reaction, but it was still illogical.
"The school is upping security this year. We need to show the people of Japan that we are still standing strong despite the invasion of the USJ. At least, that's why Nezu decided that the Sports Festival is still being held." Aizawa explained. "After today you will have the next two weeks for training. Use this time wisely."
"What about the damn nerd!" Bakugou shouted, he was practically seething at the fact he wouldn't be able to fight his rival, and prove he was stronger.
If Aizawa could he'd pinch the brim of his nose in annoyance. "Look, I won't sugar coat it. Izuku saved us all at the USJ, yes, but he also ended up critically injured. I've received updates from the hospital and for now…it looks like Izuku will not be participating in the sports festival."
The entire class went in an uproar at that news. The mime deserved to be in this event, it was only fair after all he did.
Aizawa was already tired from his injuries and these kids weren't making it any better. Using his quirk to shut his students up he continued with his speech.
"Look, even if Izuku doesn't recover in time for the school event he already has numerous drafts from heroes coming in. Izuku needn't worry about making a "splash" at the sports festival. He's done that enough with his mime crap." Aizawa grumbled.
"Wait seriously?" Kaminari asked. "Midoriya has heroes requesting him already?"
At the mention of his miming Kirishima instantly perked up.
"Well that's no surprise!" he says, no longer depressed about Izuku possibly not participating. "You guys have never seen Deku the great escape six pros have ya?!"
The entire class save Tsuyu, Bakugou and surprisingly Mineta shook their head. "Uh, what did he do?" Sero asked.
"Nothing." Aizawa butted in, "he did absolutely nothing."
Kirishima turned to his sensei only to get a glare that said, "Show anyone that video and I'll expel you in an instance."
"Err. Well, it wasn't much just… actually it's not that big a deal now that I think about it." Kirishima said.
The class looked at the hardening boy skeptical but shook it off otherwise.
After that the class went on about their day, save for the occasional worrying thoughts about their mime friend, most thought about what they were going to do about training for the sports festival.
After Class
Bakugou started to stomp his way to his next class, stopping when he made it to the door. As it was, he was still angry about his rival not being part of the sports festival, but these extras only made it worst. The class was blocked by a congregation of other students, a lavender-haired one at the front glaring at everyone.
"What the hell do you want." Bakugou growled, as the boy smirked.
"So, this is the famous class 1-A? Seems like you're just a bunch of wannabes who are taking advantage of the publicity from the USJ attack." The boy said.
The entire class bristled at the boys' comment, but none more so than Bakugou.
One.
" Don't waste my time extra. What. The hell. Do you want?"
"All I want is to see the competition this year. They say if the teachers are impressed enough, they'll exchange students in general ed into the Hero course. I'm making a declaration of war with you, 1-A. I will make my way to the Hero course, even if I have to kick your explosive ass to do it." The boy named Shinso Hitoshi said.
Two.
"Then again maybe I won't have to since I heard what happened to that weird kid with the mime hobby. From what I've heard his spot has practically opened up in 1-A."
Three.
Bakugou growled, grabbing the insomniac looking boy by the collar of his shirt.
"Listen hear you fucking extra. You ain't getting into the hero course, not with that fucking attitude. Second, that spot in 1-A, it's reserved for Deku so don't even think for a second you're gonna get it. And lastly" tossing the now frightened boy on the floor stepping over him menacingly, Bakugou spoke again, "I accept your declaration. Looking at your noodle like body I can already tell you won't be much competition."
"Remember the name Bakugou Katsuki, because I'm the one who's gonna win the sports festival, and keep you out of ever joining the hero class."
Shinso gulped, watching the explosive blonde stomp off, the rest of class 1-A following behind. He slowly got up looking up at the orange haired girl peering at him, behind him was a hoard of other hero course students from 1-B he believed.
"Err, hey". He said getting up and dusting himself off.
"Bakugou's right. You aren't hero material at all, if you think like that." Kendo said bluntly. Kendo ignored the slight flinch she saw from Shinso and continued with her speech, knowing the boy needed to hear this if he truly wanted to be a hero student.
"That spot in 1-A you think you can easily take; it belongs to my boyfriend who almost died saving us during the break in at the USJ. He has the heart of a hero despite how dumb he is, so don't think for a second even if you do manage to miraculously win the sport festival, you'll get his spot." Kendo finished, leaving without another word, Shinso staring at the girl mouth agape.
A few from 1-B stayed behind feeling slightly sorry for the gen ed student who was taken down with words. It wasn't his fault he seemed to have such a huge ego, at least they hoped it wasn't.
TetsuTetsu walked up to the gen ed student looking down, patting his back. "Big sis is just worried about her boyfriend. Don't take her words too serious."
"So, I could take her boyfriend's spot?" Shinso asked.
The other hero student with TetsuTetsu laughed, patting his shoulder as she walked by, "Not likely."
Shinso stood in the hallway until lunch ended, his interaction with class 1-A and 1-B only made him angrier and want to beat them even more. And with them not knowing his quirk he knew he had the advantage. He would get in the hero course.
In the teachers lounge
"Have we any update on Young Mime-doriya" All Might asked, unaware of his slip up.
Aizawa let out a tired sigh, "Unfortunately not. Despite getting some of the best doctors in the country by request of the number one hero, Midoriya's injuries aren't healing."
All Might couldn't help but run a hand down his tired face, ever since he saw his successors bloodied body, he'd regretted ever skipping out of the USJ field trip and vowed to put a larger focus on U.A. His time as the number one hero was nearing its end.
"This is all my fault, had I been there-
"Izuku probably wouldn't be in this position yes." Aizawa agreed, "But then again he might still be because of other circumstances. During that fight Izuku was a complete wild card, and I'm shameful to say that when I got taken down Izuku was our only hope to save everyone. What he did was reckless, but also saved his and Vlad's entire class."
All Might looked to Aizawa surprised at the kind words he had for Izuku. Usually he only had complaints about Izuku being a little menace to society, or never actually showing his true potential, this was truly a surprise.
"As much as I hate his devil may care attitude, that damn kid can truly-" Aizawa sighed, he couldn't believe he was saying this but the problem child deserved what he was about to say- " embody what it means to be a hero when he wants too."
All Might did nothing to stop the smile from showing on his face. Hearing Aizawa speak so passionately about Izuku was a heartwarming, albeit a bit shocking, and it seemed 1-A's teacher knew that too because a few minutes later he was threatening All Might not to reveal what he said to the damn mime when he returned to school, because he would be returning.
"I knew you liked the nerdy mime." All Might chuckled.
"He has potential." Aizawa muttered.
Izuku wasn't sure where he was at first when he first woke up, but he knew it wasn't in the land of the living.
"Ughh, am I dead?" Izuku groaned. Looking around he saw that it was pitch black apart from several colorful shadows hovering in front of him.
Wait a minute, wait a damn minute.
"Uh…who are you guys?"
The shadows in front of Izuku shook their heads at the boy.
"Can't tell me?"
They nodded and held up a hand to him. Izuku rubbed his chin, sage like.
"Got it, can't tell me because I'm not ready. Or rather it's not time for me to know yet. Well at least let me introduce myself! I'm Izuku Midoriya and I'm gonna be the number one mime in the world."
The shadows silently clapped for the boy's determination. But tilted their heads at him as if trying to remind him of his other goal.
Izuku paused in thought when he saw them looking at him so intensely, as if Kendo struck him in the face, he revised his previous statement.
"Oh my bad! I'm Izuku Midoriya, future number one hero/mime in the world."
The shadows nodded their head in approval before silently clapping again.
"I don't know you guys but you're pretty cool. So, do you know why I'm here?" Izuku asked.
The shadows shrugged, offering nothing else after that. From there Izuku delved into a one-way conversation with the shadows whom he found to have a sort of kinship with.
"Yeah and so when I saw that bird beak try to hurt my teachers, I activated One for All and pushed my teacher out of the way! Then I infused it with my mime quirk and started fighting the bird man." Izuku spoke excitedly to silent shadows in front of him.
The several shadows in front of Izuku silently clapped impressed by the boy's bravery. If it were anyone else, they were sure they would run away from the Nomu. From what their successor had described of the Nomu, it was created to best All Might and yet the boy stood up to it with no hesitation. Yes, Toshinori had chosen an excellent, albeit quirky, successor.
Izuku had no idea how long it had been since he was in this space, but he found he didn't mind it since his company was cool. However just as he was about to tell another story, the shadows in front of him were waving goodbye to the mime boy, and in what he knew to be mime were wishing him good luck.
"Aw, thanks guys! Until we meet aga-
And then Izuku's world went blank again.
One week ago
When Inko Midoriya received a phone call from U.A she had figured it was regarding Izuku being a little dick again. She had no idea she was going to have a panic attack at finding out her son was injured due to a villain attack that had occurred at his school, during a school sanctioned activity. To top it off finding out he was being hospitalized at the very same hospital she worked at only furthered her worries. How injured was her baby that it warranted a hospital visit?
"IZUKU!" Inko yelled.
"Inko…what's going on?" one of the head nurses questioned.
"My...my son, villain attack- injured here." She cried, practically on the verge of a panic attack.
As soon as the head nurse heard his coworker mention her son being part of a villain attack, he immediately got to checking for any new patients within the last hour. The head nurse gasped upon seeing the detailed information provided for Inko's nerdy little son's name.
He turned to Inko paled face, telling her everything he could on the status of her son. "Inko. Your sons in the ICU, whatever that villain did damaged his body badly. Even with the assistance of Recovery girl it seems that your son suffered extreme damage to the nerves in his back, a broken jaw, and a mild concussion. The doctors are doing what they can to try and fix it to the best of their ability, but Inko…your sons mime career may be cut short." He said sadly. It was common knowledge that Inko's, eccentric son wanted to be a mime. All the doctors and nurses found it absolutely adorable, especially when Izuku came to perform for them on their lunch breaks.
Inko felt her knees collapse from under her as she gasped at her coworkers' words. She knew it was unprofessional to do but this was her baby that was injured, in the damn ICU. Finding out his miming career, and hero career, may have ended just as soon as it had begun destroyed her. This was her baby's dream and she knew when he found out that it may no longer be a reality that he'd be devastated.
Yuka Shimano wasn't expecting both his kids, Katsuma and Mahuro, to actually come with him when he went to visit Musutafu general hospital when he offered to allow them to join but it seemed that they hated how often he was away from them just as much as he did. It was a bit refreshing though having his kids with him, and with how well behaved they were acting he was tempted to let them join him more often on his business trips.
"Ah, Dr Shimano. We forgot you were coming today. We hope you don't mind but we'll need to reschedule your meeting, Dr. Miyako is busy now." A nurse explained.
"Oh? I thought Dr. Miyako didn't have any surgeries going on today?" Yuka asked when he saw he was getting no further explanation.
"Ah, yes well that was the case until a student from U.A came in with severe injuries from a villain attack. We're currently trying to see if there's any way we can fix the damage leftover."
"How unfortunate…I shall leave you to your task then, and wish you luck in your endeavor", Yuka said sadly. The fact a teen was injured so severly was saddening to the older man.
"Daddy, what's going on I thought we were gonna see how you work?" Katsuma asked.
"Yeah, why are we leaving so soon?" Mahuro said.
"Ah, you will, it just seems like it won't be today, something came up you see." The father of two smiled, ushering himself and his kids towards the exit.
It took a few minutes but the exact surgeon Yuka was looking to meet was coming out of Izuku's surgery, immediately calling out for the man to wait once he saw Yuka.
"Wait! Wait Dr. Shamino please wait!" the surgeon yelled, ignoring looks of confusion towards him.
Yuka turned around to look at his colleague with a smile on his face, and began making his way back to the surgeon. "Ah, Dr. Miyako, good to see you. I've been told our meeting is postponed to another day."
"Yes, apologies but as I'm sure they told you something urgent came up. However, that's not what I wanted to talk to you about. Dr. Shamino, your quirk. I remember reading an article that said you could heal people with it. Is it true?" he asked urgently.
The island doctor nodded. "Indeed, but-."
"Our patient, a young teen barely starting high school, needs medical attention and your quirk might be the only answer. Please, if you can help we'd very much appreciate it."
Yuka looked to the surgeon with an unsure expression, "I see...may I ask what his blood type is then?"
The doctor turned to their charts looking it over." It says he has type O. Why?"
Yuka let out a sigh, "While I want nothing more to help, I can only heal those with type A. My quirk is useless otherwise. I'm sorry as much as I would like to help I can't."
The surgeons face fell at the revelation, the poor boy laying in their ICU chances of recovering was now becoming even slimmer.
"I see. Well thank you for your time." The surgeon said downtrodden. "Oh and, Please speak to one of our nurses to discuss the best time to reschedule our meeting."
"Of course, I truly am I sorry." Shimano said, going to walk off.
A nurse walked up to the Doctor, seeing the tired look on their colleagues face, "Sir perhaps we could contac- "
"DADDY, DADDY, WAIT REMEMBER MY QUIRK! I CAN HEAL PEOPLE TOO!" Katsuma revealed happily. As someone who wanted to be a hero when he grew up, he figured helping the doctors save someone was a great way to start.
The surgeon as well as the other doctors looked at the boy as if he were the number one hero.
"Katsuma, your quirk has barely shown up you don't know if it'll even work." Yuka said.
"Please Dr. Shamino, not only is this at the number one heroes request but he saved his entire class as well as his teachers. If there is any way you could help save this boys' life, then please."
Yuka sighed; he didn't want such pressure on his son but knew that a request like that from the number one hero would be rude to ignore.
"Well, where's the boy?"
Izuku was still asleep, having just come out of surgery when his mother appeared in his room. No sign of life beside short shallow breaths. Usually she would see a dopey smile on her sons' face, indicating he was going to get himself into trouble but now she couldn't even see anything indicating that he was alright beside the beeping of his heart monitors. He'd been in the hospital for the past week in and out of surgery but still hadn't woken up. His injuries were just too severe.
Tears ran down her face at the sight of the pale teen, bruises littered across his face and jaw with a new scar underneath his right eye. From what the school had revealed it was most likely from when he had his face bashed into the ground, as if she didn't already have enough reason for a heart attack.
"Oh, my poor baby." Inko sniffled. "You truly are a hero Izuku."
"Ah, gomen-sai, we didn't realize Midoriya had visitors."
Inko jumped up from her seat quickly wiping her face to rid herself of the tear stains.
"N-no it's alright. Um, how do you know Izuku?" Inko questioned, confused by the appearance of the man in front of her. To her shock the man simply laughed before waving his hands around.
"Gomen Gomen, but I don't actually know Midoriya." The man smiled.
"err...then why are you here?" Inko deadpanned.
"My quirk!" the small child that Inko barely noticed now cheered.
"Eh? Your quirk?"
Finally, the doctor who was helping with Izuku walked in to explain who everyone was.
"Mrs. Midoriya, apologies for just barging in but you'll be happy to know we might've found a way to help heal Midoriya."
Inko couldn't help the tears falling from her eyes. Hearing those words come from her sons' doctor was a godsend after initially hearing how her son had nearly lost everything.
"Really." She whispered.
"Really. This man here is Dr. Shimano. And he's not that important right now. Who is, is this little kid right here?" The older doctor smiled.
Inko looked at the trio of people who entered her son's hospital room confused. More details were needed before she started thanking anyone.
"err, right, well Kastuma-chans quirk here is quite the heroic one." The doctor smiled. "He has the ability to fully heal a person, no matter the injury."
Inko gasped at the doctor's words before looking at the small child who was still smiling brightly at the older woman.
"And it has no draw backs." The doctor finished.
"None at all really?"
"Indeed, unlike recovery girls who uses a person's stamina to heal, which in part is why she was unable to fully heal Midoriya given he had practically no stamina left in him, Katsuma does not. If Katsuma is successful in this endeavor than Izuku can very well go back to training to be a hero...and mime".
Inko was silent at the doctor's confession, she turned to stare at her son still knocked out from the medicine given by the hospital then to the small child willing to use their quirk on her son. Tears eventually began to fall, Inko couldn't help but bow before the little boy in thanks.
"Thank you, thank you so much!" she cried. "Just knowing that Izuku will be able to fulfill his dreams again because of you makes me happy.
Katsuma blushed at the praise before feeling a nudge at his back. He turned around to see his sister pointing at the bed ridden boy knocked out.
"Stop doing nothing and heal the green haired kid." She hissed.
"Huh, oh yeah!" he stuttered, rushing to Izuku's side. Turning to his father and sister, he saw both give him an encouraging smile, giving him the strength to begin healing Midoriya. And so began Katsuma's first step to being a hero.
Present time
"And done!" Katsuma sighed out of breath. He had done all he could to heal Izuku's injuries. Although it had taken longer than expected, for someone as young as he, he had done much better than everyone had expected him too. It had taken about a week for him to fully heal the teen seeing as he had to take constant breaks, having never fully trained his quirk and going off his father's teachings, but he had finally finished his task.
At first nothing happened, Izuku stayed in his coma like state, but then the mime boy woke up with a gasp, much to everyone else's happiness.
Izuku had immediately thought he was dead with how much white was surrounding him. Another quick look round told him those shadows that kept him company while in that black void were no longer with him but who was there was his mom, two little kids and a random man watching him.
Izuku looked at his mom, then the kids, his mom again, then the man, then his mom again.
"How long was I out that mom got divorced, remarried and had two kids?" Izuku thought, his throat still sore from not being used in so long.
"Izuku…my baby!" Inko cried once she saw Izuku up and about. Then in a show of affection, Inko smacked her son upside the head. The Shimano's were quite surprised at the mother's action but figured it must be something the two do since Izuku hardly reacted to it, chuckling.
"And for the record you've been out for about two weeks, no I did not divorce your father, nor did I get remarried, or have two kids, you little shit."
"Sorcery." Izuku rasped.
"No, your facial expressions tell all." Inko deadpanned. Inko then turned around to see shocked faces, ignoring that she bowed to the smallest of the family.
"Thank you, thank you so much Katsuma-chan."
Izuku seeing his mother so distressed couldn't help but ask what was wrong. Despite remembering speaking to those shadows, now that he was awake, he couldn't remember a thing that happened.
"Honey, you were so hurt from the attack at the USJ, your hero, and mime career was almost gone."
Izuku gasped at the news of what could've been. He honestly couldn't see a future where he wasn't miming. It hurt knowing that was almost a possibility. He was also shocked he was out for two weeks, the amount of work he was behind in for school was going to be catch up on. "Eh, I'll just copy Kacchan."
"But thankfully Katsuma was here at the exact same time as you so he could heal you with his quirk. It was an incredible coincidence."
Izuku turned to the three outsiders, the smallest, Katsuma he assumed, walked forward to introduce himself.
"Hu-hi, I'm Katsuma Shimano. They told me you were training to be a hero. I want to be a hero too when I grow up."
Izuku stared at the young boy who saved his life and ruffled his hair. "I look forward to your debut" Izuku rasped.
Katsuma's eyes shined at the teen's words. Aside from his father no one thought he could be a hero given his quirk. They mostly told him to pursue a different career, like doctor.
"Do you really think I can be a hero?!"
Izuku chuckled at Katsuma's excitement, taking a huge sip of water before speaking again "Of course. You've already done the most heroic… thing a hero can do practically saving my life" Izuku rasped. "In my eyes you're already a hero….my hero."
The youngest Shamino smiled widely, before jumping to hug Izuku who did his best to hide his groan, despite being fully healed he still had some sore muscles. "Then I won't let you down! I'll be the best hero ever!"
Aizawa was in the middle grading tests when he received a call out of nowhere. At first he was annoyed at the thought of being interrupted by Hizashi telling him he came up with a new podcast, but once he took a look and saw it was the hospital his problem child was staying at, and had been for the past two weeks his blood immediately ran cold.
"There's no reason they would be calling me…unless…no, not problem child, please he was an annoying little shit but please no." Aizawa prayed, answering his phone with unsteady hands.
"Hello?"
"Oh hello, Is this, uh Eraserhead? Izuku Midoriya's teacher I believe it was?" a gentle feminine tone asked.
Aizawa gulped, "Yes, may I ask what this call is in regards too?"
"Yes, well as you know Midoriya-sans injuries were far more sever then we had assumed they were, despite Recovery girls assistance."
Aizawa nodded, forgetting the nurse, or doctor, he had no idea who he was talking to, couldn't see him he grunted in affirmation.
"And though we utilized all our best doctors and surgeons for Midoriya-sans injuries, it was still not enough. Things did not look good on Midoriya's end, however a meeting-"
Aizawa could only feel guilt at the thought the annoying problem child could no longer be a hero, or even a mime. He practically sacrificed his life for the sake of his classmates as well as his teachers, who were pros for gods sake. He practically drowned out all other words coming from the person on the other side of the phone.
"And within the last week Mr. Shimanos son was able fully recover Midoriya-san! Amazing right?!"
Like a record scratching Aizawa had to have the nurse, doctor, whoever back up and repeat pretty much the entire conversation he had drowned out, a crushing weight lifting off his shoulders as he finds out, Mr. Shimano's son, whoever that is, saved his student, however visiting was only for immediate family members. Well these papers are just going to have to wait another day to be graded.
"I'll be there in ten."
"Sir, I just told you only family can visit."
"I'm his uncle, see you in ten." Aizawa grounded out.
After hanging up, the nurse who had spoken to Aizawa turned to her colleague. "This Izuku Midoriya is getting taught by his uncle, imagine all the special treatment he gets."
"Does this mean class is over?" Kaminari asked after seeing their homeroom teacher rush out of their classroom without a word to them.
"MAKE WAY, MOVE, I HAVE IMPORTANT BUSINESS TO ATTEND TO PLEASE!"
Crowds of fans watched in shock as the number one hero zoomed pass them without even stopping for pictures or even a few autographs. It seemed today he was in a rush to get somewhere and no one was going to stop him.
The minute All Might had received a call from the hospital his successor was staying at reporting he was all better and awake, he had immediately reported he would be coming over for a visit, and although being told visiting was for family only, not even the number one hero could get special treatment, All Might still raced to make his way over.
"I'm his dad."
Shit, why did I say that?!
"I thought Inko's husband was in America for work?", said the same nurse, who believed Aizawa was Izuku's uncle.
Izuku was being helped by his mom into a stretch, despite being healed he was still very very sore, when the doors to his room burst open. Wide eyed Izuku couldn't help but stare in awe at both his teacher and mentor standing in front of him red faced, yelling random things at him.
"Are you-
"Did everything-
"Okay now?"
"Problem child-"
"Never do that again-
"You maybe powerful but-
"Even the strongest have their limits my boy!"
All Might and Aizawa both finished much to their shock. They couldn't believe that both had the same lecture to give to Izuku, who couldn't believe that All Might and his homeroom teacher were visiting him.
Looking away a bit bashful because of the worry he knew he cause, Izuku nodded, apologetic for everything.
"Er, sorry Aizawa-sensei, All Might…I'll be more careful next time."
Aizawa tsked at the problem child, eyeing the scar on his cheek, "There won't be a next time…but thank you for your help Midoriya. You saved both your and Vlad's class, as well as Vlad and I. We owe you quite a lot." The teacher said.
Izuku scratched the back of his head before denying the need of repayment from his sensei. "Nah, I was just doing what a hero would do."
"Indeed young Midoriya, and I couldn't be prouder! You truly are fitting of being the next top pro." All Might said proudly.
Izuku couldn't help but feel his chest fill with pride, before the three went onto what he had missed while being unconscious. They couldn't help but chuckle at his worry over someone stealing his street corner.
"You realize that come Monday, the sports festival is happening and you've had no training at all in preparation for it right? That's three days from now" Aizawa stated bluntly.
Izuku shrugged as he and All Might ate his hospital pudding, it was pretty good all things considered.
"I mean do I really have any competition?" Izuku said, not at all cocky but genuinely curious.
Aizawa hated the fact the boy was right, and that despite there being formidable opponents in 1-A and 1-B, no one could truly hold a candle to the damn mime boy.
Aizawa simply sighed, before waving goodbye to the damn enigma that was Izuku Midoriya. "Whatever just…don't get yourself killed before the festival, please."
Izuku deciding to switch to mime mode, signed a thumbs up.
A loud groan was heard as Aizawa walked out his room, leaving All Might and Inko to chuckle at the homeroom teacher.
All Might couldn't help but ruffle the younger boys head, happy his successor was back. He knew he could no longer be irresponsible, fighting petty crimes outside of school. As of now All Might would devote all his time, he had left for Izuku. It was the least he could do to make up for what he had done, or rather not done.
As visiting hours came to a close All Might gave Izuku a hug, signifying to the teen he was happy about his recovery and couldn't wait for his return back to school. "And when you return for the sports festival Mime-doriya…make sure you tell everybody, I am here." All Might smiled.
"I will!" Izuku smiled.
Back at U.A
While Aizawa was gone Midnight had come to sub for Aizawa until he came back, once she had received the call he was on her way back she left the kids to their own devices, knowing in just a few minutes they would no longer be feeling so sad about their mime friend.
Everyone was still feeling down at the fact their resident mime wasn't there. Everyday for the past week Kirishima had been going to every street corner Deku the great was known to occupy only to find that the mime was still missing. Yaoyorozu missed Izuku constantly trying to enact a decree that everyone in 1-A had to wear mime face paint for at least one class period and could only mime their actions. She still remembers the day he almost convinced her to do it by saying it would help everyone learn how to communicate through gestures.
Yes, just about everyone in 1-A missed Izuku in their own way and for their own reasons. It didn't help that they were going to participate in the sports festival without the mime. Such a big event and the person who saved all their lives wouldn't get to participate. No one was madder about Izuku missing it than Bakugou though. He really wanted to beat Izuku on live television.
The kids were still talking, mainly about nothing when Aizawa walked in back from wherever he left too, however to all those in 1-A that knew him they could see that there was a slight skip in his step. It was a bit creepy in all honesty.
"Listen up brats, I have some good news." Aizawa announced.
Everyone looked around to one another in anticipation of their sensei's news. What could be so good that even he could look so happy…unless?
"By some miracle, a man with a healing quirk was visiting Musutafu hospital. And while his quirk was essentially useless, his son's quirk was like his and was able to heal every injury of Izuku's. As of this evening Izuku has officially been deemed recovered."
Silence, that was all Aizawa had received at his news. Then within seconds all of 1-A erupted into cheers of happiness.
"WOOOO! Izubro's coming back!"
"Knew he wouldn't go down so easily!"
"Can't wait for his snarkiness to come back to school!"
"Deku the great is back!"
Any other time Aizawa would threaten to expel his students for being so loud but today was an exception, and for once he allowed his students to be as rowdy as they'd like.
"BOOM!" Turning to see what had caused such a ruckus Aizawa saw his class door hanging off it's hinges and the entirety of 1-B storming in to celebrate with 1-A the news.
"YOOO! 1-A DID YA HEAR? DEKU'S COMING BACK!" Tetsutetsu yelled.
"We can kick his ass in the sports festival!" Awase cheered.
"We can watch him be a dumbass for Kendo!" Setsuna cheered, much to Kendo's embarrassment.
Vlad walked into 1-A's class smiling at both classes cheering for their friends recovery.
"Let's visit Izuku today!" Kirishima yelled.
"Yeah!"
Aizawa hated what he was about to say but ultimately had to tell them. "You can't."
"What?!" everyone screeched.
"Despite being healed, Izuku's still in a sensitive state, so right now they've limited visitors to family only. But don't worry he should be released before the sports festival."
While 1-A and 1-B were disappointed by their sensei's words they were still happy to hear that Izuku would be apart of the sports festival.
"You know when he comes back even if he did almost die, he's still going to go back to being a little shit right?" Vlad chuckled.
Aizawa shrugged, "So long as the kids alive, I can live with that…I hope."
After school
It had been almost two weeks since he had seen his best friend, and Bakugou only grew more worried for his friend. Despite his sensei revealing that the damn nerd was now fully recovered, he still couldn't help but hate himself for allowing Izuku to get hurt. It's a good thing only family members could visit Izuku because Bakugou didn't even feel Like the nerds friend right now.
"How am I gonna face that damn nerd when he comes back after I fucking abandoned him to get injured like that?" Bakugou practically cried. Despite being told numerous times he was not at fault for what had happened and in no way could he have prevented it, especially with his injuries, he still felt guilty for what had occurred. Bakugou just could not get over the fact his friend was in the hospital in critical condition while he was out here with minimal bruising and a small scar on his cheek.
"Fuck." He cried. "Damn Deku."
"You know…Izuku wouldn't want you to be beating yourself up over what happened," Kendo sighed. Like Bakugou she too felt immensely guilty hardly being injured while her boyfriend was still in the hospital. Had she been stronger and not gotten herself injured then maybe he would be there by their side.
"Oh yeah and just what the hell do you know man hands?" Bakugou growled, not bothering to hide his tears, much to Kendo's surprise.
"I know I feel the exact same way as you! I know he's my boyfriend whom I love and right before my eyes he was almost killed, and I stood by watching as it happened." Kendo finished, voice cracking by the end of her passionate speech.
Bakugou stared at the big fist user in surprise, he knew the two nerds liked each other but loving each other was a whole other thing. He shook his head of the thought scoffing at the girl "Whatever, you had a huge fucking hole in your side, what use were you gonna be?" Bakugou grumbled while wiping his tears away.
"The same amount you would've been with that slash down your torso." Kendo snapped back, tears spilling down her eyes after her impassioned speech. "Stop beating yourself up for something out of your control Bakugou."
Both teens stared at each other chuckling, Bakugou quickly sobered up to ask something that'd been on his mind.
"Will the damn Deku forgive me?"
Kendo rolled her eyes at the surprisingly sensitive blonde. "You don't even need to ask." She smiled, then getting up from her spot began to lead the way to the hospital where their best friend was. Even if she knew only family could see Izuku maybe they would make an exception for his girlfriend and best friend.
"The first thing he'll do is toss a sign at you with a smiley face." she said over her shoulder, unaware of the small smile that had appeared on Bakugou's face.
It was mid evening when the Shimano's gave an impromptu visit to see how Izuku was doing, double checking there were no aftereffects of Katsuma's quirk, which there were none thankfully. The hospital had made an exception for the family trio, seeing as they were the ones to have saved the teens life.
"As glad as I am that you've made a full recovery Midoriya-san, we must be off. We've completed our business here so must go back home." Shimano said smiling at the young boy still in his hospital bed. He was due to be released from the hospital in a few hours after the doctor came by to check up on him, but for now was told to continue to rest.
"Of course, thank you again for helping my son and me. We'll forever be indebted to you." Inko said bowing.
"Nonsense, if anything you've just kickstarted Katsuma's hero career." Shimano laughed, watching as a blushing Katsuma got a picture with Izuku, his first fan.
Inko couldn't help also smiling as Izuku got Katsuma's autograph, explaining that the picture and autograph would show that he was his very first civilian save.
"It's an honor for me really!" Izuku beamed back at the smaller boy, who only blushed harder, chest bursting with pride at the thought of someone else believing in his dream of being a hero.
Mahuro smiled at her brother, while she still didn't agree with the thought of her little brother becoming a hero, the fact he just saved someone, helping him reach his dream of being a hero made her happy.
"Uh, excuse me we're looking for Izuku Midoriya, he was admitted here about a two weeks ago."
"Izuku Midoriya. he's been moved from the ICU to a regular room, but unfortunately visiting is only for immediate family right now." The nurse said. "Are you immediate family?"
"Err well, kinda." Kendo answered.
"Kinda?" The nurse asked, "What do you mean kinda?"
Unsure how to respond Kendo resigned herself to not seeing her boyfriend until he left the hospital, that is until Bakugou grabbed her arm pulling her back by his side as he spoke.
"LISTEN HEAR NURSE LADY, THIS EXTRA IS THE NERDS FIANCEE AND I AM HIS BROTHER SO LET US SEE THE DAMN IDIOT ALREADY!"
The nurse jolted back in surprise at the young blondes' words. The teens in front of her looked so young and yet one of them was engaged to the injured teen. How times have changed.
"Oh my. well I suppose if you're his fiancée then I could let you pass, and hmm well I suppose you do look like your father" The nurse mumbled.
"The fuck? I don't look like mr. Midoriya?!"
Bakugou took a deep breath before speaking, "See, now please let us through."
The nurse shrugged, nodding. "Alright then, here's Mr. Midoriya's room number. Midoriya-san just woke up so please be quiet when visiting."
"Thanks" Bakugou grumbled.
Kendo stood frozen by Bakugou's side, still processing what the explosive teen had regarded her as in order to get her to see Izuku.
"Move it manhands, or we'll never see your fiancée at this rate." Bakugou joked.
"Why did you call me that?" she hissed.
"Because we woulda never seen the nerd otherwise. Get over it, you know you and Deku are endgame so suck it up and start thinking about what you're gonna call your weird ass little kids." Bakugou cackled.
"Shut up!"
"Charlie." Bakugou stated, "Deku's definitely naming one of his kids after that American mime. Or maybe All Might jr."
"The fact that you're probably right." Kendo whined, only causing Bakugou to cackle louder.
"Oh, we're here. Shut up man hands it says be quiet." Bakugou says, before knocking.
"God, I hate you." Kendo deadpans, waiting for someone to answer the door.
"Izuku Midoriya sure does have quite the extensive family, don't you think, Hina?"
Hina looked to her fellow nurse with a deadpan, disbelief written clearly on her face. How this woman became a nurse was beyond her.
"God Sayaka, you're such an idiot, you're lucky you're hot."
"What…what do you mean by that?"
After insuring Izuku was fully healed and finishing discussing the possibility of visiting each other, Katsuma and his family had left Izuku so they could make their way back to their hotel. Having long finished what they had come to Musutafu to do they just needed to pack their things so they could head back home.
Izuku was now in the middle of getting dressed with his mother's help since he was still sore from that handy villains' attack.
"Man, I can't wait to get home and start practicing for my next street show. I'm sure everyone misses me."
Inko couldn't help but laugh at her sons' attitude, despite almost losing everything he still had that same goofy attitude.
"While I'm sure everyone misses Deku the mime, don't forget about your school responsibilities." Inko scolded. "Or did you forget about Aizawa reminding you about the sports festival that's coming up in two days?"
Izuku looked at his mom sheepishly. He had indeed forgotten.
"Well, like I said to Eraserhead, good thing I don't have any competition." Izuku smiled.
Inko stared at her son, shaking her head. He had such a big head…but he wasn't wrong.
"Oh, your father called, he's so happy you made a recovery and is deeply sorry he didn't come to see you himself. A villain fighting Captain celebrity got too close to the airport runways and caused all airport cancellations where he's at."
"Aww, dad doesn't have to apologize, I know he wishes he coulda came." Izuku said happily. No matter what, Izuku knew his dragon breathing dad loved him to death and would do anything to ensure his safety.
Inko smiled at her son lovingly, he was such a forgiving and loving son. She was just about to speak again when her phone went off, answering it she listened to whoever was on the other line watching Izuku carefully as he slowly got dressed, slightly frowning at the scar on her sons back. However, as she listened to the occupant on the other side of the phone the more her frown turned upside down. They had just delivered her the funniest news ever.
Kendo and Bakugou were right in front of their best friends' door when they felt a cold shiver run down their back. For some reason something was telling them to turn back around and not go in. However, they felt it was their duty to visit Izuku despite all odds telling them to retreat. As they entered, they immediately knew they had made the wrong choice.
Inko looked at the pair with a devious smile which both knew was in no way good for them. Before either could escape Inko was already speaking.
"Oh, Izuku look it's your brother Katsuki and fiancée Itsuka. How nice of you two to visit. Izuku was just about to be released today then go home but considering how well he's recovered I don't mind allowing him to go wander around with family." Inko snickered, before walking out the room to sign Izuku's discharge papers.
Bakugou and Kendo were silent for what seemed like hours. Within seconds of just entering Izuku's room, Izuku's mother was able to murder them with just a few simple words. There was no going back from this. When they went to look at the person of interest, they couldn't help but cringe at the giddy look on Izuku's face. This only made the situation worst.
"You think of me as a brother!" Izuku squealed.
"Shut up nerd I only said that so I could get in here!" Bakugou said blushing.
Kendo let out a sigh of relief, for the moment Izuku hadn't addressed her being named his fiancée. She was in the clear for now.
Izuku then turned to his girlfriend with a dead serious look in his eyes. Kendo was slightly scared by how serious he was looking.
"Uh you okay babe?" Kendo asked.
Izuku titled his head, before getting down on one knee in front of his girlfriend. "I accept your proposal."
"BABE! TH-THAT WASN'T-WE JUST WANTED TO GET IN HERE!" Kendo screeched, trying to stop her face from turning red.
Izuku looked up from his position on the ground, "Too late, we're engaged!" Izuku snickered.
"You can't just decide something like that!" Kendo yelled halfheartedly. Internally she was slightly flattered at the fact Izuku saw them staying together long enough to get married.
"Bakugou?" Izuku said turning around.
"Fine by me."
"What?!"
"It's settled. We'll have a spring wedding, Bakugou will be my best man. Of course, we'll wait until we've made it to the top ten and I'm the number one hero/mime whichever comes first." Izuku said as he gathered his things and began limping out of his hospital room.
"Given how awesome I am, I give it six years till we're married." Izuku calculated.
"Cocky, aren't we?" Kendo said, no longer resisting but instead resigned to the fact her mime boyfriend is already planning their wedding.
Bakugou sighed before looking to his somewhat friend, "If nerd was being cocky, he would have said sooner. That's him actually being humble."
Meanwhile at Kendo's father's dojo
"Why do I feel as though mimey just did something incredibly stupid to my daughter without my permission?" Kenta wondered.
"Probably because he did." Jin said, walking up to their master while drinking a protein shake. "Wouldn't be surprised if when Kendo comes home, she's engaged." The black belt student cackled.
"Don't jinx my daughter." Kenta growled.
Omake
"I'm sorry you think who is Izuku's father?" Inko sputtered.
"Uh..All Might number one hero? How do you think he got through to visit Izuku?" Sayaka asked.
"Oh, and I can't believe Eraserhead is your brother!" she added.
Inko slapped her face, how this woman became a nurse she'll never know.
"Sayaka, please stay pretty." Inko said, caressing the nurse's hair, with a smile that said, I'll protect you from any one with bad intentions, you poor child.
"Uh..okay? But why are you telling me that? Hina said the same thing but didn't explain it."
"No reason." Inko said before walking off to do her rounds. She really hoped it didn't get out that "All Might" was her son's father.
"God heroes are idiots." Inko chuckled.
