Dad For One

Chapter 2 - Entrance Exam

Izuku excitedly bounced up and down as he stared at the gate, an annoyed blonde standing next to him. Both of them were nervous for what was to come, but neither dared show it to each other.
"I can't believe we're finally able to apply to UA! Kacchan, can you believe it?!" Izuku exclaimed before the ruby eyed boy hit him on his head.
"Shut the fuck up! You're making a damn scene, everyone is staring" he hissed, giving his childhood friend a small glare.

"Remember what uncle Hisashi told you"

"Low profile, stick to one quirk. I know Kacchan" Izuku sighed, pouting a bit. He remembered the look on his father's face clearly, before he told his mom to make an appointment at the hospital for a quirk assessment. Izuku had been four, but he knew very well that being quirkless meant he could never compare to others in terms of being a hero. He'd never be able to realize his dream...

Of course Tenko tried comforting him. Izuku was a little brother to him and the green head had never been aware there was once a time he'd been an only child. He was just a baby when his parents adopted Tenko, you know. But Izuku also remembered how serious his dad looked when he told him to sit down, that they needed to talk about his quirk. It was then that Izuku found out about his father's secret, All For One. A quirk capable of taking quirks and giving them to others.

A quirk that was now his own, as it has been ever since he turned ten. His body needed to be shaped and trained first, so that's why he didn't get it when he was four. Also, Inko would've definitely killed her husband if he gave their son such an unstable and overpowered quirk without teaching him about it first. Right now, he could use most of the quirks in his arsenal, some with great precision even, but he was only allowed to use one.

A powerful telekinesis quirk his dad found some time ago, making it easy to link back to his mom's weaker version of telekinesis. It was enough to become a good hero, but Izuku couldn't help but imagine what would become of him if he could use all his quirks...
"Oi, don't look at me like a kicked puppy. It's for your own good" Katsuki muttered, pulling Izuku out of his thoughts.

The ash blonde knew about his quirk and what it could really do. The green head couldn't help but tell him back when they were kids. He was so happy he was getting a quirk! Now he and Kacchan could be heroes together! Yeah, it had been something when the Bakugous learned of All For One... But they're at peace with it now. They knew neither Izuku nor Hisashi would ever do anything to harm them and the latter gave up on his evildoings and tried his best to earn redemption.

"Sorry Kacchan! It's just... I wish I could do more, you know?"
"It's your fucking secret, your fucking fault if you get caught and imprisoned" Katsuki mumbled, walking towards the entrance.
"That's so mean!" Izuku whined, running after his friend towards the room where they'd get the information they needed for the practical exam.

"I'm just being realistic. Don't fucking think I'm gonna be there to save your ass every time you screw up, okay?" Katsuki stated, sitting down in his seat, Izuku sitting down next to him with a pout.
"We're not even competing in the same arena, see?" he sighed, showing the green head their arrangements.

"Huh... They probably don't want friends helping each other or sabotaging others" Izuku muttered.
"Guess we won't see each other fight then? Too bad... I know Kacchan will win in the end though!"
"Of course I'll fucking win, just make sure your ass passes or I'll fuck you up" the ash blonde boy hissed back.

Izuku chuckled, knowing he meant well. They were friends after all! Izuku knew Kacchan better than anyone and he could read him like an open book even through all profanities and anger. He was worried for him... He has always been like that. Worried that Izuku would slip up and expose his secret. All For One was still the quirk of a villain, after all, and All Might hadn't let off in his search for him. It would be disastrous if the hero were to discover Izuku was now the carrier of the quirk...
