All Might

"Okay! Cut it out you two!" the teacher exclaimed with frustration since he was being ignored by the whole class.

All the students returned to their position leaving Kaatsuki and Izuku, still facing off.

"Tch." Before long, Kaatsuki also returned to his seat but not before clicking his tongue in dissatisfaction. Izuku also relaxed and took his seat.

Around the same time, in the same city.

"Noooo! Thief! Stop him!" shouted a man at the top of his lungs, pointing at a sprinting slime monster. It was a daylight bank robbery.

"Catch me... if you can!" the villain commented in a hoarse voice.

The villain was confident in his escape since there were Pro Heroes nearby because they were still busy from the morning incident. So, he grabbed this chance to make some easy cash. His plan was sure to be a success unless…

While the panicking crowd was looking for the nearby heroes, a bulky man made his entrance.

"It's all okay, now. Why, you ask? ... Because I'm here."-stated the man with a shiny smile.

-------

Izuku was walking back home after a long day of school. He had earphones placed in his ears and… singing? With his tone-deaf voice.

"They see me rise when all hope seems lost.

'Don't be afraid!' I exclaim from the rooftops.

Because~~~ I am here~~~.

So many battles, I have been tested.

I've never failed, never have been bested.

No evil draw near~

Because, I am here~~~

…"

(A/N: 'One for all' Divide music)

While walking through a tunnel on his way back home, Izuku was making weird noises in the name of music and mumbling the lyrics from time to time in a soft pitch voice with great emotion.

*Gloop*

Unbeknown to him, a fluid-like creature squeezed itself through the holes of the manhole that Izuku had just passed and stalked behind him.

'Hehehe… A perfect skinsuit to hide in…' –the creature thought with glee. 'Still, I would never have thought someone like 'him' would come in this town…'

Without any delay, the creature pounced on Izuku only to be unexpectedly thrown with greater force.

"All!!... Huh?"

-------

Izuku was a fan of 'All Might' like many others and was influenced by his heroic deeds. So, listening to the 'All Might' themed song he got a little excited and couldn't hold it much longer.

'One for…' "All!!" With enthusiasm he shouted 'alone' in the tunnel, his quirk being activated in the process. During that action, he realized something and immediately rolled forward to make some distance from his current position.

He immediately put away his earplugs and turned to look at the cause of his sudden action. There he saw a green liquid monster with eyes and mouth attached to it. "Damn it… what was that? ..." the deformed monster growled in irritation and vigilance. But discarded it immediately after seeing the ghastly expression of the kid.

'A villain?'

"…that was some nifty trick, brat. But don't think that I will let you run away after this…"

Izuku had guessed it right. If not for his accidental quirk activation, who knew what the villain would have done? Thinking about it gave Izuku a shiver. Watching villains as an audience was much, much easier than when you came face to face with one. The malicious intent directed by the villain had paralyzed Izuku on his spot. His legs felt weak and his back was drenched in sweat before he could notice. But no more than a couple of seconds had passed.

"I WILL HAVE THAT ABILITY FOR ME!!!" With a confident grin, the slime villain immediately charged at Izuku with full speed to prevent any escaping chances. Izuku cried inside his head for his body to move and at the last moment, just when the villain was an inch away from reaching him, he moved.

Izuku was vertically thrown straight up. But he couldn't achieve much height before he collided with the ceiling of the tunnel they were in. The height of the ceiling from the ground was around 3 meters which were impossible to reach for a normal jump but Izuku's 'Attract and Repel' quirk made it possible for him.

But Izuku, in panic, couldn't control the acceleration and hit his head hard to the ceiling. He felt dizzy for a moment which was enough for Izuku to be captured by the slimy villain who was just below. He was initially shocked that the kid was able to dodge but later laughed mockingly seeing the latter's descend.

"Hahaha… you should've just stood silently while I did my work. Where did that bring you?!... Back to me!! Hahaha… "

Izuku had come back from his dizziness but it was too late. He was covered by the fluid body of the villain. He opened his mouth to shout for help only to be covered by the villain.

"Mmgh! Mmgh!"

"Don't worry… I'm just taking your body for a little time… it'll hurt you for 45 seconds… then the pain will disappear…"

While the villain was giving fake reassurance, Izuku was having difficulty breathing since his airway had been blocked by the villain's mutated body. His vision was getting dark. In a panic, he was firing his quirk pushing the villain away from him only for the villain to reform and cover him without missing a beat. His quirk was not strong enough and the villain had learned from his first mistake

As time passed, he began losing strength from his body. Was he going to die? Was this the end?

'Someone, help me!!!'

He cried. For a sliver chance to-

*Bang*

The lid of the manhole blasted open with great force followed by the appearance of a bulky man.

"Do not worry, kid!!... I'm here!" said the man in a deep voice.

The said man then quickly threw a powerful punch with a roar.

"TEXAS SMASH!!!"

Just the air pressure from the punch was enough to detach the villain from Izuku. With the cover off of Izuku's airway, he desperately sucked in the air to fill his lungs.

*Gasp**Gasp*

Even while gasping for air, Izuku couldn't avert his eyes from the person who had just saved him. Why, you ask? Because he was there! The No.1 hero of the nation…

"All… Might… "
