Ghost Deku

"Does that mean he's...dead?" Tsu asked softly, wary about the answer.

"Unfortunately it does." Nova said sadly.

People looked down sadly and then slowly looked towards the screen as it started.

"Where am I?" A skinnier, younger Izuku asked while looking around a dark and empty apartment. You could also tell that Izuku was transparent. He was extremely beat up and there was blood streaming down his face. He wiped at the blood but it just kept coming. He frowned but then realized that the blood disappeared after it reached the bottom of his neck.

The theater gasped at the on-screen Izuku. "What the hell happened?!" Bakugo shouted.

"I hate to agree but I would also like to know" Todoroki said, his face blank but showing the slightest hint of worry.

'It seems like he's back to normal' Everyone thought with an internal sigh.

"If you keep watching you'll see." Nova said and everyone turned back to the screen.

"How did I get here? The last thing I remember is-" Izuku started only for memories to rush back to him. "Take a swan dive off the roof of the building and hope that you're born with a quirk in your next life!" Bakugo said and walked off laughing with his friends. I smiled. "Maybe I will" I whispered. I bubbly climbed up the stairs to the roof of the school. I looked down towards the ground. I took off my shoes and my backpack, setting them neatly beside the edge of the building.

"DEKU STOP!" Uraraka screamed to her best friend, tears in her eyes as she was powerless to stop him.

"Problem child..." Aizawa whispered, staring at the screen stiff as a board.

"Sorry Mom, Dad, Tenko..." A tear slipped down his face as he came to the very edge of the building, his feet partially off of the roof. "Become a good hero Kacchan" He whispered before jumping off the building.

Those in the theater screamed as they watched someone they care about so much plummet to his death.

Bang. You could hear people screaming and before everything went black you could see Bakugo's traumatized face.

Uraraka broke down as a mangled, broken cry left her throat. Iida, who had tears streming down his face in quick waterfalls, pulled her into a tight hug and they sobbed in each others arms. Todoroki's face was frozen in shock and pain and anger as tears fell down his face. Tsu was letting out choked sobs as was Mina and Hagakure who were both clinging onto each other. Bakugo was frozen, stiff as a board. He didn't scream, he didn't cry, it barely even looked like he was breathing. Denki and Sero were silently crying and Jirou and Momo were hugging and crying. Toga screamed bloody murder as she broke down. AFO was crying as was Shigaraki and Dabi. Aizawa buried his face in his hands and sobbed as Mic and Midnight tried to comfort him as tears flowed down their face. Endeavor looked around and tsked trying to stop the tears pricking his eyes from falling. Sato, Shoji, Tokoyami, and Koda were all lumped together and crying. Aoyama had stopped sparkling and was clutching his knees to his chest as he sobbed. Shinso was covering his ears and squeezing his eyes shut as he cried, trying to stop the scene from replaying over and over again in his head. Ojiro was looking down as tears dropped in quick secession onto his lap. Nezu had tears trailing down his cheeks and for once he didn't have a million thoughts running through his head. Gran Torino had covered his mouth and looked away as tears flew down his face. Recovery girl was continuously wiping a never ending waterfall of tears. All Might was clutching his head and whispering 'I'm sorry' over and over again as he cried. Kirishima called out for Midoriya and was freaking out and trying to convince himself it was fake as tears dripped off of his cheeks at a rapid rate. Tetsutetsu, who was also crying went over to try and comfort Kirishima as Kendo had buried her face into Monoma's chest while they both cried.

Nova paused the multiverse to give them time as tears slipped down from her eyes. (Honestly, I would sob for hours if Izuku actually did this.)

After an hour they had collected themselves enough to at least continue the universe.

"Oh" Izuku said quietly. He looked around the apartment he was in once again. "If I died at the school then why am I in some random apartment?" He wondered out loud. Izuku tried to walk forward when he realized that he could fly. His face broke into a smile and he then zipped around the apartment's living room giggling like a little kid.

Everyone smiled softly at the boy, who still managed to be happy after everything.

Suddenly the door to the apartment opened. Izuku froze for a second before he whipped his head towards the noise. But before he could hide the apartment's inhabitant walked into the living room. They both just stood there and stared at each other. The man was none other than 1-A's homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa.

"Me?" Aizawa asked as he looked at the screen.

"Yep!" Nova responded.

"Um, hello? Please don't freak out! I know that this probably isn't really the best first interaction but I can explain! So, I'm assuming you can see me because you were staring at me when you walked into the living room and by the way that you're still standing there. I mean why would you just walk into your house and stare at a random spot if you couldn't see anything there?" Izuku said as he continued mumbling.

Aoyama chuckled a bit at seeing Midoriya just being himself and so happy.

Aizawa sighed deeply. "Kid" Izuku didn't seem to hear him. "Kid!" He said a bit louder. Izuku flinched harshly and snapped out of it. "I-I'm so s-sorry sir" Izuku stuttered, his form quaking slightly. Aizawa sighed again. "It's fine, now would you please explain what you're doing in my apartment?" Izuku laughed awkwardly. "About that, I don't know how I got here. I remember dying and then all of a sudden I'm here and I'm a ghost." Izuku said, gesturing to his entire body and it's visible transparency. Aizawa's eyes widened. "That's not your quirk?" Izuku looked down sadly. "I don't have a quirk, that's why I jumped off the roof. Everyone would be better off without me." He looked up at Aizawa with a sad smile.

"That's not true!" The theater cried to the little ghost boy on screen.

"I'm sure that's not the case kid." Izuku laughed a bit. "Thanks sir, that's very kind of you" Aizawa paused for a second, like he was thinking. "Hey kid?" Izuku tilted his head to the side slightly like a confused puppy. "How would you like to see UA?" The ghost boy's eyes sparkled with excitement. "I would LOVE to! It was always my dream to go there! Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!" The ghost boy said, rushing in to hug Aizawa. Aizawa stiffened up a bit at the hug and realizing that Izuku was very cold. He then relaxed and Izuku pulled back before he could return the hug. "I'm so sorry sir I should've asked-" Before he could say anything else he reached his hand out and gave the boy head pats. Izuku smiled widely at the show of affection and Aizawa almost smiled.

"If that's not the cutest thing I have ever seen I don't know what is" Mina said, wiping away tears from how wholesome their interaction was.

"That was so manly!" Kirishima called out, punching his fist into the air.

Mic giggled. "You really are like a dad to him"

You could hear AFO grumbling incomprehensibly from across the theater.

They all chuckled at the villain's displeasure and how protective he was over his son.
