Chapter 4- The Cursed Trip

Chapter 4:

Izuku and Inko's trip to the amusement park held an air of excitement, the anticipation of fun palpable. Clutching a crumpled 5-dollar bill, Izuku's mind was a hive of ideas waiting to be unleashed. However, as he was on the verge of putting his plan into action, he was abruptly yanked back into his mindscape.

Geto's voice resonated within, questioning Izuku's resolve. "Are you certain about this? Your body's training is one thing, but this involves the power from the scroll."

"I'm sure. I need a way to protect myself. I know the risks to my body, but I'm willing to take them," responded Izuku with determination.

The ethereal exchange concluded with Geto's amused chuckle. "Alright then. Have fun, and be safe. I don't want my reincarnation meeting an early end."

With a confident smirk, Izuku assured, "Don't worry. I don't plan on dying anytime soon."

Returning to the present, Izuku found his mother, Inko, announcing their arrival at the amusement park. Eager to embark on his adventures, Izuku's enthusiasm was momentarily tempered by his mother's concern.

"Wait, Izuku! Let me buy tickets and give you some money for games. Are you sure you don't want me to stay close for safety?" Inko voiced, her maternal worry evident.

"Oh, sorry, Mom. I forgot the crucial part. No need to watch over me. There are heroes everywhere. I'll be safe," reassured Izuku, the anticipation of the park fueling his excitement.

With tickets in hand, Inko observed as Izuku scampered off to the rides, disappearing into the thrill of the amusement park. Deciding not to arouse suspicion, Izuku engaged in games for about 30 minutes, playing the role of an ordinary park-goer. Consulting his map, he identified an exit and navigated towards it, effortlessly jumping over obstacles and dashing toward the woods.

Arriving at his destination, Izuku was met with a colossal rock obstructing the entrance. Contemplating his options, he reluctantly decided to employ his newfound technique. Clenching his right fist, an ethereal fusion of blue and black aura enveloped it. Despite the initial thrill, pain surged through his body as he swung his fist, creating a small crater. As he withdrew his fist, the rock cracked and exploded, leaving Izuku astonished yet satisfied. He decided to name this new move "Exploding Fist."

Stepping into the cavern, a makeshift torch in hand and a flashlight illuminating his path, Izuku marveled at the carvings adorning the walls. Stumbling upon a pedestal with an indescribable monster, he couldn't resist but twist it. A chill ran down his spine as the door opened, leading him further into the cave. Unbeknownst to him, something trailed behind.

Inside the cave, he discovered an awe-inspiring collection of weapons. Temporarily captivated, Izuku refocused on his mission, eventually finding the coveted "Playful Cloud."

"Awesome! Now, let me put this in my bag and find those scrolls with the workout info," Izuku resolved, eager to complete his quest.

Nearing the entrance, Izuku encountered a mysterious door with no visible mechanism. Puzzled, he pondered until he noticed a pattern of lights. Deciphering the sequence, he mimicked it, causing the door to open partially. Excited, he proceeded, only to find the door incomplete. Hours passed as he grappled with solutions, attempting to squeeze through or pry it open, all to no avail.

Exhausted and stuck, Izuku reached out to Geto, pulling out a crumpled 5-dollar bill. Closing his eyes, he found himself back in his mindscape.

"Hey there, Midoriya. Got a question?" greeted Geto, circling Izuku.

"Yes. How do I fully open the door?" inquired Izuku.

"You'll need to read something out loud. The answer's right in front of you, visible with curse energy. Also, that 'Exploding Fist' move is impressive. How does it work?" asked Geto.

"Thanks! It's like a divergent fist. The curse energy penetrates the opponent or object and releases throughout," explained Izuku before bidding farewell.

Awakening, Izuku decided to follow Geto's advice. Focusing curse energy on his eyes, he discerned the hidden letters. Chanting the words, the door gradually opened.

"Whoever chants these words is worthy. A user of curse energy seeking knowledge," Izuku read aloud.

Inside, he found a vast library with two scrolls encased. Thrilled, he pocketed them, exhausted but content. Returning to the amusement park, Izuku reunited with his mother, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. The day's adventure had left him with not just memories but tangible knowledge and artifacts that would undoubtedly shape his future endeavors.
