Old Soul || A BNHA story

Chapter 1 | Nothingness

Enjoy :]

A pair of emerald green eyes shot open, the person quickly looked around. They were lying in a All Might themed bed, looking around more, they realised that everything in the room was All Might themed. They quickly stumbled out of the bed, heading towards the mirror on the big wardrobe.

A look of confusion showed on the little boy's face. There was a glowing golden rune on his forehead, he tried to rub it away, thinking that somebody had drawn on his face with a marker while he slept, but it didn't seem to go away. He frowned but suddenly his face lit up, after all, he was now four years old so it might be his quirk.

"Mummy! Mummy!" he yelled out, a big bright smile on his lips as he stormed out his room. He didn't even acknowledge the fact that it was early in the morning and that his mother was still heavily sleeping, having fallen asleep on the couch.

"I'm awake! I'm awake!" she shouted as she instantly sat up when she heard the boy's happy voice. She looked around for a moment, looking at her environment in confusion before she realised that she wasn't in a classroom and wasn't about to get detention.

"What's wrong, Izuku?" she smiled at her son, despite him having interrupted her slumber.

"Look! I think I got my quirk!" he grinned from ear to ear when he held his hair up, allowing her to examine the golden mark on his forehead.

Right as she touched it, he collapsed in her arms, making the young mother panic and filling her with worry. She instantly ran towards the nearest hospital, not even changing out of her pyjamas.

.

The next time that Izuku woke up, he wasn't in the same apartment anymore, instead he stood in nothingness, it wasn't a black room, it wasn't a white room, it was just nothing. Everything was silent, it was so quiet that it almost hurt his ears.

But a sound suddenly hit his ears, the sound of steps echoing in the empty space. Izuku looked around, fear obvious on his face. He came to a stop as he faced a man, wearing a black suit and a black skull like mask covering his face. The man didn't say anything, instead he just reached out to the green haired boy.

Izuku tried to scream, he tried to run, to get away from the man as fast as he could, but he was didn't seem to be able to, every step he took didn't seem to get him farther away from the man. 

But right before the masked man touched him, Izuku woke up, sitting next to his mother in musutafu's hospital, engulfed by his mother into a hug. Before the boy could process what just happened to him with his young mind, the name 'Midoriya' was called out.

.

"It seems that his body simply needed a moment to adjust to his quirk" the Doctor explained as the two Midoriya's sat in his office, Inko Midoriya exhaled in relief while she visibly relaxed. "Now to his quirk." The elderly man started, Izuku gave him a look of excitement to which the man just chuckled.

"His quirk is not very unique or rare" the man spoke, Inko Midoriya's smile slightly dropped as she had hoped that her son would get a quirk that would be uniquely his. "The quirk itself is simply called 'Magic'. It allows the user to access a type of energy from another layer of existence that most people call 'mana', some users of this quirk have shown access to more mana than others, making the abilities vary from person to person. For example, the Magic Hero: Majestic is able to create floating ring-shaped platforms with the quirk while I met others that were able to shoot energy blasts with it"

"However.." The man looked down at his documents, Inko got a bit worried at that. "I have only heard of a few cases of such a strong connection to the mana pool." Izuku cheered, hugging his mother. "I cannot tell you what exactly he will be capable of but I can guarantee that from the test we did, he will be one of the strongest Magic users to ever exist." The man held the paper in his hand up for both of the Midoriya's to see. "These values here" he pointed at a 168 on the paper. "This is the mana from one drop of his blood. That is 3 more than from the British Heroine Enchant, who held the place as strongest user of this quirk up until now, for example Majestic only has a value of 23. Your son's connection to the mana pool will only grow stronger as he grows older, so it's safe to say that you will make it far, kid"

Cheers!
