Boku no Hero characters, original story and everything belongs to Kohei Horikoshi, the author of said series. I only own the Plot.
I plan on making this fan-fiction ~10 chapters, although I cannot and will not promise anything.
If you like it, please share it!
Chapter 1 – Class Activities
(IMPORTANT A/N) – It may start with bad writing, but it gets decent. Also, this POV will change, and there will be A LOT of plot twists. Hope you're ready! Bear with me with the first 3 chapters...
Deku's POV
The bell resonates within the classroom; the students start to place their respective materials on their desks and gather in groups to chat about their daily lives. The normal thing for students.
I see two familiar silhouettes approaching me;
"Hey Deku!"
"Hello, Midoriya."
"Hey, guys!"
They are Uraraka and Iida, my best friends in school.
"Well, I heard that we'll have a special lesson today. Nothing official though."
"Really? What could it be, huh..."
Iida tells us what he heard. Uraraka seems happy about it.
"I am looking forward to it... Maybe we'll get to use our new special moves?"
"Not sure about it, Midoriya..."
We then start to talk about what we usually talk; Nothing much. Wow... It is really good to have friends like these.
Some minutes later...
"Everybody, sit down."
The teacher Aizawa enters the classroom and as always, order us to sit.
"Today, we'll have a little different activity."
"YEAH!"
"Shut up, Kaminari."
The class seems very agitated with that, in a good way. Well, that's expected.
"That activity will be a kind-of tournament between you. This will serve for testing the new special abilities and to practice it in-combat."
"I'll kill you all, damn bastards!!!"
Bakugo it's fired-up. Scary...
In general, we'll sort the opponents for the tournament from similarities in combat-abilities, to avoid unbalance during combat.
Apparently, I will be against Bakugo. I hope I can do well...
Then we got to an open area, and the pro super-hero Cementoss made the arena on a place further away. Todoroki and Bakugo, the fault is yours... And mine too, I guess.
Then the battles started, and it was alright.
Some students, like Todoroki and Tokoyami, advanced to the second round, and my battle will be up next. I'm a little anxious. Iida as well advanced to the second round. Uraraka lost by a tiny margin against Tsuyu, they were pretty even. Afterward, they laughed it off, it seems Tsuyu and Uraraka are rivals now... interesting.
Also, Uraraka has gotten a way to use her quirk more efficiently: She upgraded her Hero Costume (Which we got permission to use in the tournament) to be able to stabilize herself in mid-air and to be more affected by her own quirk. She was essentially jumping high, almost flying and running faster with more control. It was quite impressive actually...
"Nice, Uraraka!"
"Thanks, Deku! Just a bit more and-"
"Huh? What was that last bit, Uraraka? You were muttering something just now..."
She muttered something low enough that it couldn't be heard.
"Nope, it's nothing Deku. Oh, it's your turn now. Good luck!"
She said so with a smile. It was frighteningly beautiful and encouraging.
"Yeah... Bakugo will be definitively a problem."
"Midoriya and Bakugo! It's your turn, come to the arena!"
Aizawa then called us. Cementoss is beside him, he is also the referee for the matches. Aizawa is taking notes on a digital spreadsheet. Probably how the students are doing.
I and Bakugo get in the arena. It was a circular piece of thick cement, with a little elevation on the sides. It measured at least 80 feet in diameter. The people watching are at least 65 feet away from the arena itself, and they have some kind of tempered-glass bunker. Todoroki and Bakugo, we are guilty here.
I got to the extreme right side (from the referee's perspective) of the arena, and Bakugo to the extreme left.
Cementoss then asks us both if we are ready.
"Ready?"
"Yes!"
"Humpf..."
Bakugo nods with the head implying a yes. He is Bakugo after all...
"3... 2... 1... GO!"
Bakugo starts launching himself into the air with his explosions and coming in my direction.
"DEKU!! DIE!!!"
Woah! Are his screams getting more intimidating? Oh no, focus Deku!
While he jumps and is getting closer to me, I activate my Full Cowling 5% and advance to my right, doing a half-circle in the arena.
"COME HERE, BASTARD!!!"
Bakugo landed with a huge explosion and quickly turned to my side. He starts to charge quicker than before with his explosions... How is he moving so quickly?
I tried to dodge to my left, but he holds my right arm and throws me to the ground.
"GWAH!!"
It hurts, I will not lie. Ugh, I don't want to dodge all day though... I have to find an opening... Wait a second!
Ready to do the final blow, he punches the ground and makes an even bigger explosion, but my instincts acted earlier, so I was now above him. Quickly I got to one of the extremes of the arena, the furthest away from him.
"STOP RUNNING AWAY, DAMNIT!"
Okay, Kacchan.
So I start to run in circles around the arena, very quickly. At least enough not to get caught by him.
Bakugo then judging that he couldn't do anything, and if he followed he would fall in the bait, he jumped and with explosions thrusts himself in the air a considerable amount and with small explosions starts to spin around his center of gravity.
"Howitzer..."
Oh, he is getting ready to do it...
He's now falling down... Around 2 more seconds... NOW!
Uraraka's POV
"Wow! That battle is so quick, I can't even process what's happening properly."
I wonder if I will get to be like Deku someday... He is so heroic saving everyone who needs, even if it breaks his bones, arms, muscles... I remember something like he switched his styles to prioritize the kicks instead of the punches so he can recover his tendons from all the recoil from his Quirk. I find it weird that his Quirk is so dangerous, and he just recently was able to control it properly. What's up with that, I wonder...
When pondering about that I feel like my stomach has butterflies in it. I have heard about it... is it "that"? Nah, certainly not, I only think of Deku as a friend... right?
"IMPACT!"
I hear a loud scream from Bakugo, and then my mind starts to focus on the battle again. I see a huge amount of smoke reminiscent from a huge explosion.
My jaw dropped...
Deku's POV
NOW!!
As I spoke those words in my mind, I jumped straight into Bakugo's smoke tornado. I thought about it, and it seems that if he is inside the tornado, he will be vulnerable, it will be uncontrollable and I could easily grab him. I don't know what will happen afterward though, as I have only seen he using it like twice.
I grabbed his neck, twisted in mid-air and launched him up, and as he was rising, I forced my landing.
Surprisingly, the tornado has dissipated, but the smoke itself remained. I swear I could hear curses from above my head.
As I know that Recovery Girl will be giving assistance during the matches, I could attack him to some extent using One For All. Then I activate my Full Cowling in 6%. I don't know if my body will handle it, I haven't tested it yet.
I then make a stance ready to do a kick, and when he was falling I feint my right hand in. He got baited, grabbing it and trying to pull me in.
While I use my right hand to pull him close to my right leg I let go of him. Wow, his grip is strong, luckily he couldn't get balance grabbing me.
He was kicked with a 6% kick. I don't expect serious injuries. He was rolling on the ground and fell outside of the ring. He tried to grab the border of the arena along with the ground, but luckily he grabbed wrong because of stability issues and pain.
I won... That was VERY close. In the case of me missing by an inch margin, I would have been exploded. I don't even want to think about it.
"Midoriya Izuku wins!"
Cementoss said while Aizawa was making notes.
"Congratz, dude!"
"Wow!"
"Bakugo lost that quick?"
The class was having a lot of reactions at the same time, it was quite funny and confusing.
I've started to walk back to the "Bunker" and saw Uraraka spacing out.
"Hey, Uraraka?"
No response... So I got closer to her.
"Heeeeeey?"
Even while swinging my hand in front of her face there was no response.
Uraraka's POV
He... Won...
That was so awesome, but for some reason when I saw him jumping into the explosion my heart seemingly skipped a beat. I guess I was afraid of him jumping into it...
Wait...
Am I worried about him that much? I mean, I am not stupid enough to ignore those feelings, but I'm still confused, after all, it's the first time...
Oh... That means I feel "That". I'll have to think for a while, and not think about jumping into conclusions. I don't want to ruin our friendship just from an error of mine.
"Ura... raka?"
Deku was just a few inches from my face, looking at me worriedly. Did I blank out?
WAIT, INCHES FROM MY FACE?
"Oh, sorry... Just blanked out for a second. Also, congratulations for winning!"
I jumped back from the surprise. Phew... Good thing he didn't notice. My face feels hot for some reason though... wait...!!
Deku's POV
Her face is red now... Is she okay?
"Are you okay Uraraka?"
"Oh, yes!"
Her face got red like a tomato now... cute, but I want to check just in case.
"Really?"
I leaned forward and touched my hand on her forehead. It's considerably hot. Oh, the temperature just rose.
"Anyway, I guess there is someone looking for you back there"
I look behind me and see an angry Bakugo on the verge of exploding
"DON'T GIVE ME THAT CRAP DEKU!! I WANT A REMATCH!"
And that's how my first match in the tournament turned out to be.
