7 Chapter 7

Izuku was squirming on his seat inside a plane. The grin wouldn't leave his face as he almost couldn't sleep just thinking about stepping foot on the famous I-Island!

Bakugo was starting to get pissed at his friend. But he also got to admit that he was excited. When he heard that David Shield was once the partner of All Might, he wanted to find out more about him.

And he was impressed to say the least.

"We're almost at the island! Why don't you look through the window and you'll see a bird's eye view of I-Island before we land!" Said All Might in his skinny form.

Izuku perked up at this and looked out his window to see the giant facility of I-Island in the ocean. "Wow! It's even bigger than I thought! And all of these are mostly made by metal! Can you believe that!?"

"I'm excited to meet this David Shield!" Said Bakugo with a grin, "Maybe ask for his autograph!"

"I wanted to meet his daughter." Said Izuku.

Both All Might and Bakugo froze. They turned their heads towards Izuku who was looking at the island with a longing look.

"Ah..." Bakugo was staring at his friend like he was looking at an alien, 'What the fuck? Since when did the nerd gets interested in girls?'

While he was doing his research about David Shield, he also saw his daughter. And he got to admit, that she was very attractive.

But still, for the nerd to be attracted to her....

All Might narrowed his eyes, "Young Midoriya! You might be my successor, but don't think for a second I will help you in this thing. Though, if you really wanted to get to know her, then ask her out. I-Island is like a city, full of restaurants and many sites...perfect for date spots..."

Izuku turned towards All Might and Bakugo with a confused look, "What are you guys talking about?"

All Might smiled and patted his shoulder, "It's alright young Midoriya, you're already at that age after all. Though you need to be careful, Dave is very protective of Melissa."

"What are you—" his eyes widened, "No! You got it all wrong! It's not like that at all!"

"It's fine young Midoriya, I get it, I get it." Said All Might with a smile.

Bakugo smirked.

"You don't get it at all!" Izuku exclaimed, but seeing that his words has no effect he just sighed and whispered, "I was just curious since I heard that she helped in designing the costumes of several pros in Japan and America."

[Attention passengers, we will begin our descent in about ten minutes. We will arrive at I-Island at two PM eastern time, and the temperature outside is 28 degrees Celsius. Thank you for flying with us, and we wish you an enjoyable stay]

"Alright! You two go and get ready! We're about to land!" Said All Might as he went to his buffed form.

----

The trio walked through the airport terminal and out onto the main grounds of I-Island. Izuku and Bakugo was mesmerized by the sight.

Thousands of people everywhere using their quirks freely to make sculptures, fireworks, tons and tons of street performances. Exhibits and tall skyscrapers were scattered across the horizon.

Izuku was wearing a black turtleneck sweater, a black jeans and red tennis shoes. He was also wearing a silver chain necklace.

While Bakugo was wearing a white bomber jacket over a blue shirt, a white jeans, and blue tennis shoes.

"Wow! It's incredible All Might! I-...uh, All Might?" Izuku looked over to his mentor to see him take a wide stance as if he were preparing for something. "Um...W-What are you doing?"

"I'm preparing for the horde of fans. We might get stuck here for a bit." Said All Might as he adopted a serious expression as if he's facing a powerful villain.

"What?"

Bakugo looked around, at the hundreds of people around them and shuddered. He quickly grabbed Izuku and pulled him away.

"Katsuki?" Izuku looked at his friend who looked afraid and just let himself get dragged by him. "Why'd you loo—"

"Shut up nerd! Just follow me!" Bakugo glared at his friend and pulled him away from All Might. "Good, this place's safe."

"What are y—"

"Oh my god is that All Might!?"

"Where!?"

"All Might!?"

"It is him!"

Bakugo turned to Izuku, "That's what I'm afraid of. A horde of fans. If we stayed there we might've have been consume by that swarm." 

Izuku turned to see a gigantic mass of people running straight towards All Might, and couldn't help but shudder, "Is that...Is that what will happen to us if we became pros? I'd rather go underground."

Bakugo remained silent. In fact, he was also thinking the same thing. He'd rather face the sludge villain from before than face these people.

At least, he can blow away the villain, while he couldn't even touch them.

"Yes! Yes! I LOVE ALL MY ADORING FANS! IF YOU COULD JUST MAKE A LINE THIS COULD BE MUCH EASIER!" He started spastically signing more and more posters and pictures, but then suddenly a group of fangirls got close.

"Can we give our hero a big kiss on the cheek?" The women all started leaning up to All Might's face and started kissing him.

All Might, having already experienced these things, just laugh it off. He knew they don't mean anything by it....probably.

...

"Phew~!" All Might wiped an imaginary sweat and released a sigh of relief, "That took longer than expected. Anyway, now that's all over with, we can finally head to the main tower and meet Dave!"

"Yeah..." Izuku said with a tired voice and dead looking eyes as he whispered, "...Fans...are dangerous."

Bakugo leaned towards him, "Hey, are we going to tell him that his face still have some kiss marks?"

"Are we?"

They looked at each other before shrugging, "Nah~"

All Might turned towards them, "Before we go, I need to warn you that even though Dave knew about my condition, he doesn't know anything about One for All or the fact that young Midoriya is my successor. So please keep quiet okay?"

"Sure." Bakugo shrugs.

Izuku grinned and gave a mock salute, "Roger!"

All Might grinned before slapping their back, "Good! Now onward to—huh?"

Boing. Boing. Boing.

'Boing?' Thought Izuku.

The trio turned towards the main plaza staircase to see a beautiful blonde girl bouncing towards them on an odd-looking red pogo stick.

Her blonde tresses fell over her red cardigan top, and her verdant eyes peeked over a stylish round glasses.

Izuku's eyes widened in recognition.

"Uncle Might!" The girl called in English, bouncing off of her contraption only to be caught by All Might and pulled her into a hug.

"Melissa!" All Might seemed delighted to see her. She hugged All Might tightly and giggled like a child. "Long time no see, Melissa! I almost didn't recognize you!"

The girl, Melissa pulled back from the hug but All Might was still easily carrying her, "Hehe, I'm sixteen now, Uncle Might! Aren't I a little bit heavier?"

"Never, my dear! You're still the same darling child I used to carry in my arms!"

They laughed, and All Might set her down gently.

"Where's Dave, that old rascal?" All Might boomed.

"Papa's in his lab, waiting for you. He couldn't come get you himself, so he sent me instead. It looks like he was finishing the last stage of some research he began years ago. You're just in time to see it."

"I see. What was the research about?"

"Confidential. He wouldn't even tell me."

"That damned Dave, keeping things from his daughter like that. I'll be sure to give him a talking to for you."

"That's right! You tell him, Uncle!" Melissa pouted in faux anger.

All Might patted her head before motioning at Bakugo and Izuku, "Melissa, I want you to meet my....students! I have been training them for the last four months!"

Melissa smiled and turned towards them with a curious look.

All Might coughed and pointed at Bakugo, "This blonde young man is Katsuki Bakugo!" He then pointed at Izuku, "And this is Izuku Midoriya! He's a bit of a fanboy."

'A bit?' Bakugo rolled his eyes before looking at Melissa and gave a nod, before speaking in a rather fluent English, "Nice to meet you...I guess."

As for how he knew how to speak English, well, Izuku forced him to, just so they could watch some pre-quirk american movies without subtitles.

And though he wasn't as good as Izuku, he can at least hold a conversation.

Izuku was looking at Melissa stars in his eyes that seem to confuse the girl as she blinks her eyes a few times.

"U-Um...Hello?"

Izuku immediately appeared in front of her and grabbed her hands, startling her, using English language, he said, "You are really Melissa Shield! Is it true you helped in designing a lot of Pro Heores costume!? I heard you even helped on Endeavor's! Oh my god! It's really nice to meet you!"

All Might sighed and pulled his successor back and gave Melissa an apologetic look, "Sorry about him Melissa, like I said, he's a bit of a fanboy."

Melissa just smiled, "It's fine Uncle Might! I'm just not used to being approached like that by people around my age."

She was usually the one to approach and not care about personal space, but that was only when her mind is on a working mode and doesn't care about other things.

Not only that, her contact with other people her age is very limited since she spent most of her time in her workshop, or in the lab where she was surrounded by middle aged people working as a scientist or engineer.

It doesn't help that she skipped grades and doesn't feel quite comfortable with her classmates.

"Anyway, I'm Melissa Shield! It's a pleasure to meet you two!" she introduced herself as the two boys greeted her back.

Smiling, she turned towards All Might with a confused look when she saw kiss marks on his cheeks, "Uncle Might, why'd you have those kiss marks on your cheeks?"

"WHAT!?"
