Happy New Year everybody! Hope you had a fantastic holiday!

Now that all of those are out of the way, let's get right back to the story

Yamanashi Prefecture:
Gran Torino's Apartment
Midoriya's POV

"I'm alive!"

The old man with a short stature got up, saying that he was holding a plate of sausages when he suddenly tripped and fell down.

Okay that's a little weird.

"Now who did you say you were?" he asked.

"I'm Izuku Midoriya. From UA High School."

"You're who now?"

"I'm Izuku Midoriya!" I slightly raised my voice. I guess he didn't understand it at first.

"...So what's your name boy?"

Oh great. He was All Might's teacher so I knew he had to be pretty old. But I didn't expect him to be bonkers!

He suddenly fell down to his feet again.

"I could really use some food." Gran Torino claimed.

"Some food?!" I exclaimed at him. Still processing the events that had happened right now.

He perked his head up.

"Toshinori?" he asked. Was he calling me that?

"Midoriya." I reply back hoping to make some sense to him. He just stares, mouth gaped open.

"Excuse me. I..just need to make a phone call." I quickly fished my phone out of my pocket and pressed All Might's number.

I should probably let him know the state this guy's in. He's not fit to mentor.

Then, I heard a click from behind me. Is that my suitcase?

I turned around to see Gran Torino surveying my Hero Suit. I quickly panicked.

"Wait that's my stuff!" I warned him.

"Why don't you power off a OFA smash at me. I wanna know how far you've come in terms of handling both of your quirks." Gran Torino suddenly blurts out.

Is this even the same guy as before?

"This is a pretty good costume. Now where is that attack?" he asked.

"But sir..." I still had my doubts as he turned to face me again.

"Hey what are you doing here?" he once again put on a face as if he was joking with me.

What the heck is with this guy!

"I am here because I need to master my quirks, including OFA, much greater than I can use them now. I have to get so much better at it, and fast." I say to him clenching my fist.
