Chapter 3

As Izuku walked, heading towards the arcade, he heard a commotion on his left, making him turn his head to see a group of people gathered in shopping district.

"Fuck the arcade! I need to watch first!" Izuku grinned as he started to run towards the district.

As the teen entered he kept his ear open. From what he heard a villain has taken someone hostage and the heroes were having trouble with the villain since he was forcing the person to use their quirk, which was pretty strong.

So the heroes were just sitting back and weighting for someone to come with a better quirk, which was stupid.

'Heroes are always in hard situations since they have to worry about the villains, civilians, and collateral damage. A hero needs to know when to adapt in order to counter any situation, not just wait for someone with a better quirk.' Thought Izuku.

On the other side, a skinny, almost skeleton-like man with blonde hair was biting his lips and clenching his fist as he stared at the hostage in grief.

'I'm sorry...I'm so, so, sorry...' He was trembling and almost into tears, 'Pathetic...I'm so pathetic....'

As Izuku made it to the front of the crowed he was shocked to see the same slime villain who attacked him earlier.

'What the...How!? All Might captured the guy! No, it must have fell off when he jumped! What the fuck are the heroes doi—!?'

Izuku's mind screeched to a halt as he made eye contact with the hostage.

It was Bakugo.

And he was looking right at Izuku with desperate eyes. Eyes begging someone to save him. An eyes that someone like Izuku who wanted save people, couldn't ignore.

His mind went blank, and before he could even think his legs just moved as he ran towards his friend.

The blonde skeleton-man stared at Izuku, his eyes widened in shock.

"Kid! What are you doing!? Stop! Stop!" The heroes called for him, but he ignored them.

He ran, lowered himself and grabbed some dust. When he came close to Bakugo, the blonde just glared at him.

"YOU DAMN NERD! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE!? LEAVE! YOU'LL DIE!"

Izuku shouted back, "FUCK YOU TOO! I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME! MY LEGS JUST MOVE ON THEIR OWN! BESIDES IF IF I LEAVE NOW YOU'LL DIE! I CAN'T LET IT HAPPEN!"

Izuku dodged the attacks attempted by the villain with fluid movements before throwing the dust on its eyes.

"AARRGHH!"

Taking the chance that the villain closed its eyes, Izuku grabbed Bakugo's arms and pulled him out of the villain.

"Katsuki! BLAST ITS ASS OFF!"

Bakugo grinned, "No need to tell me twice!" his palm released some sparks as he pointed it at the villain, "DIIIIEEEEE!"

The blonde released the strongest explosion he made in his entire life. It was so strong that it caused too much pain for Bakugo's hands and arms as they immediately slumped to his side afterwards.

However, their eyes could only widen in shock as the explosion wasn't enough to take down the villain.

'How's he still standing!?' They both thought in unison.

The skinny blonde at the crowds looked on in horror, they were going to die! And no one was going to do anything.

He was pathetic, he was afraid of a time limit when there were lives on the line, 'SCREW THAT!'

Without anyone even noticing, the skinny blonde buffed up, revealing his identity as the number one hero, All Might.

The villain rushed to capture both boys, if that was even possible, they didn't know. But Izuku quickly reacted and tackled the tired Bakugo to the side, evading the villain's attack.

Izuku could've easily escape, but he couldn't leave his friend behind who could no longer lift his arms. Left with no choice, the green haired teen decided to fight.

However...

"YOU BOTH ARE SAFE." Both of their eyes shot open and in front of them was the Symbol of Peace

"All Might" They both shouted in unison as they sighed in relief.

"WHY? BECAUSE I AM HERE!" All Might exclaimed as he blocked a tendril from the slime villain, "NOW BE GONE EVILDOER."

The pro pulled his right arm back as he grabbed back Katsuki and Izuku with his left, his legs kept him grounded, his hips turned, and his arm shot forward.

"DETROIT!" Blood came from the hero's mouth but he pushed through, he had to, he must, "SMASH!" 

After all he was a hero, and heroes always had to go beyond their limits!

The wind pressure split the slime man up again, while Katsuki's and Izuku's bodies flailed in the wind like clothes on a windy day.

Mt. Lady blocked the wind from the civilians while some of the pros braced themselves.

The wind eventually dissipated allowing all to see that All Might stood triumphant

One of the heroes on site, Death Arms, looked on in awe. He too had a sort of super strength, but nothing compared to All Might's.

His eyes widened when he felt something soft hit his arm, then something hit his head, then his leg, until he realized, it was raining! "Holy shit, he changed the weather."

The civilians and pros cheered for All Might. Then the pros there approached the two boys and both berated and praised the teens. Though they also reprimand them, for Izuku it was because of his recklessness, and for Bakugo it was because of his usage of his quirk.

Though they only got a slap on the wrist and were checked by the medics. Izuku was allowed to leave after a check up, but Bakugo was held up for questioning and much treatment.

Izuku decided to go home, Bakugo insisted that he didn't need to wait for him.

.....

Currently, Izuku was walking towards his house, his mind replaying the events that happened earlier.

He couldn't do anything to the villain and has resorted to underhanded methods. He paused and stared at his fist, 'There is a limit to how strong a Quirkless person like me can be. Shit. If I continue like this I will have to go underground like Eraserhead.'

He sighed, 'Whatever. I only wanted to help people, I don't need fame. As for money, well, we are already quite wealthy so I don't need to worry about mom.'

Unknown to him, Bakugo was following him with a grin. Wanting to scare the crap out of his friend who he saw was in a daze.

'It's payback for what you did during the Halloween!'

"I AM HERE!"

Bakugo's eyes widened when he saw his idol suddenly appearing in front of his friend. He was so shocked that his body reacted and he hid.

"A-All Might!" Izuku called out, staring at the muscular hero in shock, "What are you doing here? You were surrounded by the press earlier."

Bakugo wondered that too.

All Might gave a heart filled laugh at that. "I can avoid them if I want to, it's part of being a Pro Hero! After All, I'm All Mi-cough!" 

In a instant All Might shrank down to his real size, the skinny-skeleton-form as he spit up a lot of blood.

Izuku's eyes widened in shock, along with Bakugo who was peeking his head out the corner.

"HOLY SHIT! WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!" Izuku, and Bakugo who revealed himself screamed at the same time.

Izuku blinks as he turned his head and saw his friend running towards him and stopped besides him, glaring at the blonde skeleton.

All Might, in his real form, stared at Bakugo in shock before sighing. "It's quite rude to listen to other people's conversation."

"Forget that!" Bakugo growled, "Who the fuck are you imposter!? There's no way you're All Might!"

Izuku remained silent, but agreed with his friend.

All Might sighed, again, "Look kids, I'm really All Might. This is my true form." he lifted his shirt and showed his disgusting injuries on his stomach, "Disgusting right? I got this when I fought a powerful villain five years ago. Result? Semi-Destruction of my respiratory system and total removal of my stomach. My face is emaciated and haggard, my eyes are side effects of repeated surgeries. Currently, I can't work actively as a hero more than about three hours a day. This is my limit."

"Fuck." Bakugo cursed as he stared at his idol in shock and horror.

"Five years ago," Izuku winced, as he tried to remember the events that happened that time around, "Is it that when you fought that S-class Villain, Toxic Chainsaw?"

All Might laughed at that. "You know your stuff kid, but no, it was someone else... someone much stronger."

All Might then adopted a serious look as he glanced at the two. "What I told you and what you have seen must never be publically disclosed, I ask you to never reveal this to anyone."

Izuku instantly raised his hands. "Don't worry, I get it. Besides, who would believe me if I said All Might is getting weaker?"

"Even now I find it hard to believe, and I'm looking at you." Said Bakugo as he crossed his arms.

All Might smiled, before looking at both of them seriously, "I still have something to tell you, but remember, you two must keep this a secret and never reveal it to anyone else."

They both nodded, their face showing how serious they are.

All Might grinned, "Earlier, when no one reacted to help. You, a Quirkless teen, rushed ahead to help someone in need! And that really touched me!"

Izuku felt voice get caught up in his throat at All Might's words. "What you said, 'my legs moved on their own'. Those great heroes always said the same thing! Before they could even think, their bodies already reacted to help someone!"

Bakugo looked at his friend with a smirk. 'Well, he's an idiot. A heroic idiot.'

"That's why I think your worthy to inherit my strength."

"...Huh?" Izuku said with a confused expression on his face.

Even Bakugo look at All Might in confusion.

"Ha! That expression is a gag!" All Might laughed. "But what I'm trying to say is, I deemed you worthy to inherit my Quirk! One for All!"

"Huh?"
