3rd POV

"I'M ALIVE!" the old man on the ground said and raised his head up off the ground.

Violet screamed and grabbed onto one of Midoriya's arms and one of Layla's. Layla shoved her off of her arm, causing Violet to stumble on Midoriya, almost causing him to fall over.

"HE'S ALIVE!" The three all said in unison while watching the short, old man get up off of the ground dusting himself off.

"Whoopsie, I fell over while carrying a plate of sausages covered in ketchup. Silly me." He continued to dust himself off and picked up his walking stick.

Violet kept a hold of Midoriya's arm, and usually Midoriya would be flustered, he still was, but he was more focused on worrying if they were in the right place.

The man looked up at the three teenagers, "Now who did you say you were?" He asked in a classic old man voice, a little shaky but weirdly inviting.

"I'm Izuku Midoriya from UA, and this is Layla and Violet."

There was a silence for a moment then the man leant forward and asked, "You're who now?"

Layla blinked and decided it was her turn to introduce them all, raising her voice a bit more, "He's Izuku Midoriya, she's Violet and I'm Layla."

There was another second of silence before the man looked at them all again and smiled, "Now what are your names?"

"Oh my god." Layla muttered and pinched the bridge of her nose, "I'm done." Layla put her hands up in surrender and turned her back on the man.

'Wow, I knew this guy was old because he taught All Might, but I didn't know he was going to be bonkers!' Izuku thought to himself.

"I'm sorry sir, but I need to make a phone call." He carefully shimmied out of Violet's grip and went to stand outside, Layla was already out there and Violet was kind of awkwardly standing inside with the old man.
Violet peeked outside for a moment but the the opening of a case caught all of there attentions.

The man was looking through their hero suits!

"H-HEY!" Midoriya shrieked, the man continued to look at their hero costumes, but stopped on Midoriya's the longest.
"Why don't you fire a hit of one for all at me?" He suddenly spoke.

Midoriya's eyes widened and he opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted by the man, "I want to see how well you can control it."

The teens stood in silence, all thinking the same thing: 'Is this the same guy we just tried to talk to?"

Then next they knew he looked up and he looked at them a little confused, "Hey, who are you guys?" Then he went back to looking at Izuku's hero suit.
"I'm still waiting for that punch."

Midoriya looked down and bawled his first in determination.
"I really want to get stronger and learn how to control one for all correctly. I don't know how much longer All Might has, so that's why I need to learn how to control my quirk, fast. And so, I don't have time for any of these games sir, good day." And Midoriya tried to walk out of the building.

The old man smirked and suddenly vanished from his spot on the ground, jumping around the area with great speed and finally landing right on the door way as they were about to walk out.

He pointed to Midoriya, "It's time you show me what you got, ya newbie!" And the man started to laugh, whereas Midoriya was almost scared shitless.

"Ooohh! You are in so much trouble boy. But you've got this!" Violet said and Layla nodded, "Yeah, you go Deku!"
