The Spider Of His Universe

The Turning Point

10 years later

     I spotted Izumi's gang in the distance as I made my way to school.
Sigh
Waiting for me, no doubt.
   'I ain't getting beat up this time'  I thought while taking the alleyway to avoid them.

"Aaah!"
That shriek stopped me in my tracks.
  Wasn't that voice...  "Melissa?" I murmured slowly as I peeped back at their gang.

Shit!
Without a second thought, I ran over to them.
"Hey!" I shouted as I came between Melissa and their gang.

They all took a moment to look at me before Kacchan smirked.
"Look who's here, shitty Deku the hero!"  They laughed.
"L-leave her alone!" I stammered.

"Move aside," Shoto said as he activated his quirk, "or face the consequences."
"Izuku, I-I..." Melissa started, but I cut her off. "Run!" I screamed as I frantically tried, and failed, to fight the gang.

"Shitty Deku," said Bakugo as they walked away.
"Why don't you just give up?" Izumi exclaimed.
   "Never," I muttered as they left.
         Well, just another day in my life

"Izuku!" Melissa came running to me as I was trying to clean up.
"Hey, I thought I told you to run," I chuckled.
"Why?" Melissa squeaked with teary eyes.
"Huh?"
"Why would you put me before yourself?" cried Melissa.
"Oh, that. T-that's because.. " I started
"That's because it's what heroes do," I smiled. Melissa blushed.
"W-what?"
She quickly shook it off.
"N-nothing! It-t's just that it should be different, y'know. I could tell dad, an-"
I put my fingers to her lips. (blush)
"Don't tell Uncle David," I sighed." He doesn't need to be worried."

We made our way to school.

After school and the All Might incident

Boom!
I started to rush towards the source of the explosion, but stopped, recalling what All Might said.

Consider what's realistic. Be rational.

I eventually made it to the scene, but I wasn't prepared for what awaited me.

"Ka-Kacchan!" I exclaimed. I looked around.
   Why weren't the pro heroes helping?

"I will not be defeated by some ugly ass villain!" screamed Bakugo.

'Be rational, be rational, be rational' I started muttering,
But then, my body moved on its own.
At the same time, I saw Izumi jump out.

"Izuku! What are you-" " Your courage has enforced me to act!" a voice boomed.
We watched in awe as the No.1 hero came charging towards the villain.

Detroi- Repulsion Burst!
A burst of explosion burnt the villain.
The crowd looked up to the source of the explosion. "Whew!"
"Looks like I made it in time," said Iron Man, No.7 Pro Hero, as he descended.
The crowd burst in applause. "Iron Man! Iron Man! Iron Man!"

Kacchan was praised by the pro heroes while I was scolded.
But then,  Iron Man came up.
"Hey, c'mon guys. This kid here had the courage to step up to the danger! Don't see good guys like him these days."

"N-no, they're right. I'm quirkless anyway. I'll never be a hero," I stuttered out.
I hung my head.

"Hey kid," I looked up.
  "Look up, I'm quirkless too."
