42 Talk

After the race for the other groups was finally concluded, the class went to get changed before their next classes began.

In the locker room, Hiroto took off his shirt while listening to what the others had to say about their results from the race.

"Man, I've gotta work on my mobility," Eijiro said, buttoning up his shirt.

"You'll just have to make up for it with reconnaissance since any sort of intel can be crucial," Tokayami said.

Kaminari said. "We'll still fall behind at this rate. I'm jealous of Hiroto, Sero, and you."

Hiroto merely shrugged and said, "Not everyone's suited for fast-paced rescues."

Eijiro rolled his eyes and said, "Yeah, except you, who's basically suited for everything."

The other guys laughed at Eijiro's jab at Hiroto, who was annoyed and said in an exaggerated tone, "Man, It's soooo hard being this perfect."

The other guys felt their eyes twitch in annoyance, with Katsuki grinding his teeth and throwing a boot towards Hiroto, who merely shifted his head out of the way and stood by a wall with his back to it, blocking what seemed to be a small hole that peered into their room.

While the boys were messing around, in the girls changing room, the small group of girls was gathered at a wall and leaning forwards. Asui sitting back shook her head and said, "You shouldn't be doing this, ribbit."

"Shh, it's fine it's fine." Hagakure's voice came from the front of the group as she was peering through a small hole in the wall that was connected to the boy's changing room.

"What do you see? Move over." Ashido said, pushing the floating pair of panties and bra out of the way and peering through the hole. She then saw a pair of abs standing right in front of the hole, causing her to blush as she quickly retreated back and collapsed into Jiro's arms.

"Hm? What, did you see?" Momo said, then peering into the hole. She then saw Hiroto's face looking straight back at her, making her freeze.

"Kyaa," Hiroto said in a monotone voice and used his finger to collapse the hole in front of him. The dust flew back and hit Momo's face, causing her eyes to water as she retreated and rubbed them.

Uraraka blushed and said, "I told you it was a bad idea…"

Jiro shook her head at the girl's actions but was also curious about what they saw.

On the other side, Hiroto was fixing his shirt as Todoroki walked over, asking him, "What was that?" He looked at the wall that had a bit of dust on it but seemed to be in solid condition.

"Nothing that you have to worry about," Hiroto said, stuffing his Hero suit in the locker and leaving the room. Todoroki looked confused for a moment but decided to throw the matter to the back of his mind.

------------------------------

After that small incident, Hiroto entered the staff restroom and saw All Might wearing a suit in his true form with a serious disposition on his face, casting a glum feeling around the room. He was sat on a sofa in front of a coffee table with two seats on the opposite side.

Hiroto sat on the stool and said, "So, I'm guessing we're waiting for Izuku to come before we start?"

All Might nodded his head, saying, "Normally this discussion would've been left to me and young Midoriya alone, however… This threat may not only extend to him, as I'm afraid news of your powers may have already been leaked."

Hiroto didn't say anything and took out his phone, texting Rumi about the events from the race earlier, to which she responded with apt enthusiasm.

A few minutes later, Izuku entered the room and raised his eyebrows for a moment when seeing Hiroto. He then looked towards All Might who had his arms resting on his knees with his hands clasped, saying, "Take a seat."

Izuku gulped at the tense mood he was giving off and took a seat. All Might then began by saying, "You've been through a lot lately, and I'm sorry I wasn't there to help you."

Izuku waved his hands and said," That's okay… you really don't have to apologize… I'm more curious… about…I'm more curious about One For All."

All Might then said, "I head the Hero Killer licked your blood."

Izuku nodded and said, "His quirk lets him paralyze anyone whose blood he ingests… but what about it?"

[Authors Note: I made a mistake when I addressed the Hero Killers quirk, saying that it boosted his abilities instead of paralyzing them. Well, let's just consider it as AU instead of going back to recorrect it. Sorry for the mistake, orz]

All Might continued, "When I granted you my power, do you remember what I said?"

Izuku's face then morphed into All Might's trademark poke face, and said in a deep voice, "Eat This."

Hiroto turned to All Might and raised, shifting his stool a bit backward. The corner of All Might's mouth twitched as he corrected and said, "Not that. I meant 'Really doesn't matter what it is you're at. As long as you get my DNA!'"

Izuku then panicked and got up, shouting "Wait… Don't tell me… The Hero Killer has One for All Now?!"

"No." All Might said, then going on to explain the properties of One for All to Izuku and Hiroto, to which Hiroto stopped paying attention a long time ago and began to daydream.

[Authors Note: The whole thing is too long, skippppped]

All Might clapped his hands after several minutes of talking, bringing Hiroto back. "All for One, he can take and grant quirks. With that ability, he could instill trust in others… or at least get them to submit. However, the load was too much to bear for those who received it. Many would end up becoming mere puppets, unable even to speak. Just like those Nomu."

He then went on to explain how One for All came to be the fusion of a power-stocker quirk and transferring quirk.

Hiroto then coughed, interrupting All Might, saying, "So, how does this have anything to do with me?"

All Might sighed and said, "All for One has always been looking for quirks that he could steal and make his own. I'm afraid that you may have become a target to him, especially after he learns how you took care of his Nomu's easily, which were designed to kill me."

Izuku paled and said, "Wait, so All for One is going to be coming after Hiroto?"

"Not just him, you too, once he finds out you're my successor." All Might said.

Izuku then gripped his hands and said, "Whatever you say, All Might… I'll step up to the challenge! As long as you're by my side, I can do anything… that's how I feel, anyway!!"

All Might look at Izuku, feeling's of anxiousness and tension-filled his being as she struggled to speak out the words he truly wanted to, the fact that he won't be around anymore for Izuku when that day arrives.

All Might looked down and said quietly. "...thanks."

Hiroto looked between Izuku and All Might, before secretly texting to Rumi on his phone, saying, 'Yo, are matters concerning Heroes always so dark? It's a suffocating.'

Rumi sent back an emoji of a rabbit tilting its head in confusion.

------------------------------

After that short meeting, Hiroto was back in class. Mina who sat behind him nudged her back with her foot, whispering, "Where did you go to?"

Hiroto leaned back in his chair and whispered, "No where. Just had a chat about a supervillain who has a fetish for quirks."

Mina tilted her head, but then frowned and lightly kicked Hiroto's chair, whispering, "Fine then, keep your secrets."

Hiroto shrugged and turned back to the front as Aizawa entered the class and lazily address the class when he came up to his podium.

"Uh… Summer vacation's close at hand. Of course, it would be completely irrational for all of you to take a whole month off. You'll be doing a summer training camp in the woods."

"Yeah!!" The class cheered together.

"Truth or dare!!" Mina shouted, raising her hand.

"Fireworks," Asui said.

"Curry, yes!" Iida added.

Momo glanced towards where Hiroto was sitting but then stayed silent, a small blush appearing on her face.

Hiroto's eyes narrowed, as he muttered to himself, "The woods… No wifi… I need to pack my essential survival kit…" He then began to plan in his mind how much manga he would bring as well trying to figure out if it was possible to bring a game console as well.

Aizawa knocked on the podium to get the class to calm down and said, "However… Anyone who doesn't pass the upcoming final exams… is in for summer school hell, right here."

"Do you best, guys!!" Eijiro shouted to everyone with a raised fist.

Katsuki merely scoffed and said, "How stupid…" However, he would be lying if he said he wasn't looking forward to it.

[Authors Note: Should I include the events of I-Island from the movie? I checked out the timeline and saw that it happened during summer vacation, so I could include it either before or after the woods training part, after the practical exam. I never watched it but I could if there's a lot people who would want to see it. If I do include it, it most likely would be after the training camp. Lemme know]
