Another Midoriya

Ticking Time Bomb

AN: This chapter is a bit long but I thought it would be interesting to cover Akira's training arch. It also helped me describe a lot more of what her quirk can do so I hope this is entertaining.

"C'mon, Akira." Izuku urged and Akira jolted awake.

"It's not time, is it?" She groaned, looking at the clock on her bedside table and groaning.

"Are you sure you want me there for this, Izuku?" She asked while rubbing her eyes.

He nodded and quickly passed her a cup of coffee.

"You know how you wanted me there the first day you started ballet?" He asked and her eyes went a tad bit wide as she sipped from the travel mug.

"That was like a million years ago." She pointed out.

"It's the same thing." He explained and started to do some stretches for his arms.

"Not really. I wanted you there because it was the first thing I was trying to do on my own and it scared me." Akira reminded him.

"Well, I want you there because it's special to me and I think you could help. And maybe I'm a little nervous." He muttered the last part under his breath and she smiled as she climbed out of bed.

She was still exhausted from her own training from the night before but she was going to be there for her brother.

"No reason to be nervous, big brother." She assured him.

Izuku was actually older than her by a total of 4 minutes and 38 seconds.

"I'll be there to cheer you on and maybe give you some pointers." She promised him before heading into the bathroom to change.

The twins managed to leave on time but Akira fell asleep on Izuku's shoulder as they rode the train. She and Katsuki never seemed to know when they had done enough and stayed up far too late. That was going to need to change before her grades started to suffer.

"We're here."

Akira woke up with a shake of her head, immediately looking for the travel mug full of coffee.

"Here," Izuku chuckled, passing the mug over before they got to their feet.

The sun was not even in the sky when they stepped foot on Dagoba Municipal Park Beach.

"Shit, why did he pick such a dirty beach?" Akira asked as she looked at the miles of junk sprawled out for miles.

"That's a wonderful question!"

She jumped about a foot in the air at All Might's voice while Izuku let out a yelp.

"Oh sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you two. I got a little excited." He admitted and Akira stared up at the man.

He was in the form she was most familiar with. The gigantic symbol of peace smiling down at them both. This still felt like a dream to her but it was somehow real.

"Will you be joining us? I'm afraid young Midoryia must do all the training on his own but you are welcome to offer encouragement uh—Which one of you is the oldest?" He asked suddenly.

"Me but only by four minutes," Izuku answered while Akira pointed at him.

"Perfect! You'll be young Midoryia and you'll be younger Midoryia." All Might patted both of their heads which led Akira to chuckle slightly. She couldn't quite comprehend how someone could be so energetic this early in the morning.
