A God Amongst Men

Chapter 4

Izuku took that leap of faith and grabbed a hold to his Idols leg and was travelling through the air, holding on like his life depended on it. Which it was.

While in the air All Might soon felt that he felt a little heavier that usual. Looking down to his legs he soon found one Izuku Yagi hanging there, wind smacking him in the face.

All Might: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Let go of me! Your fanaticism is too much!

The hero started to try and shake Izuku off, having a scuffle in the air unknown of what he was asking.

Izuku: If I... let go now... I'll... I'll die...!

The scuffling soon stopped with All Might realizing it.

All Might: That's true.

Izuku: I... have a lot of things I want to ask you directly!

All Might: Okay, okay! I get it, so close your eyes and mouth!

Quickly grabbing a hold of Izuku, making sure the boy wouldn't lose his grip. He then gave a cough a slither a blood escaped his mouth.

All Might: Shit.

Soon enough All Might had found a building and landed on it.

Izuku was sitting there stunned at what he had experienced. Soon a small smile formed onto his lips.

Izuku: That... That was amazing.

All Might: Good grief. If you talk to the people downstairs, I'm sure they'll let you down. I seriously am running short here young man, I've got a meeting I got to get to, so I really must go.

Izuku: Wait! Um...

All Might: No! I will not wait!

Izuku: But...

Every step All Might seemed to take a memory of his past was brought up of all the people that told him he couldn't be a hero, that he was useless, just some Deku who couldn't make it. Until he finally snapped out of it and blurted out his question the his Idol.

Izuku: Even If I don't have a Quirk, can I become a hero? Can even someone without a Quirk be like you?

All Might stopped dead in his tracks as he heard that question come out. Just what Izuku couldn't see was the face All Might was wearing.

Sadness was all that was plastered on the heroes face. It looked like he had already knew what was to be asked but he still couldn't help but react when it came. It hurt the hero for what he was about to say. This wasn't some school kid that was some unknown fan, oh no. This was someone he cared deeply for.

Giving another cough he straightened himself up and tried to look normal. Izuku couldn't bare to look at the man, while waiting for his answer. He was riding this till the end and had everything riding on this.

All Might: Without a Quirk...?

All Might was quickly hunched over in pain as he clutched his side, it startled Izuku as he called out to the hero.

Izuku: All Might! Are you ok? Did that Villain get a hit on you!?

All Might: Oh shit... Eh No not at all Young...?

Izuku: Yagi sir.

All Might: No Young Yagi, that Villain could have never got a hit on me. Just some stomach pains is all. Bad lunch. Anyways back to your question. You asked if you could be like me, a hero. Without a Quirk yes?

Izuku: Yes sir.

All Might: Heroes die on the front lines everyday, some even need to retire early one before their careers even start off because of injuries they suffer on the job. I myself have suffered deadly attacks that would have killed others.
