Chapter 5

Amidst the vibrant colors of the dinosaur-infested world, Izuku found himself surrounded by friends who cared deeply for him. The air echoed with the formal language of the Tier Geri Academia, where dinosaurs and humans coexisted, learning side by side. The use of honorifics and structured speech patterns reflected the respect and discipline ingrained in their academic environment.

"Izuku-san."

"Izuku-san."

"Broccoli-san."

Izuku looked up from his meal of prehistoric fish, his friends' dignified gazes fixed upon him. "You have been contemplating that piscine specimen for quite some time. Should we express concern?" you queried, tilting your head with an air of formality. "No, worry not! I am in good spirits," he reassured, resuming his repast as you nudged your unique plate. Confidence had emanated from him before the entrance exam. Had something transpired? Did he face adversity? Unthinkable. He had trained with All Might, the epitome of heroism. He was destined for greatness. Ah, the intricacies of human emotions, you pondered, finding their sentiments intricate and bewildering.

Your tail gracefully slid over to Izuku, patting his shoulder as he lifted a primitive weight. "Listen, Broccoli-san, all shall be well. Remember, I shall perpetually stand by your side," you consoled, eliciting a genuine smile from him.

"Yes... I appreciate it." Suddenly, Inko burst through the entrance, clutching a missive.

"Izuku, your correspondence! Zulu-san, a letter from U.A. has arrived!" she exclaimed, presenting him with the epistle adorned with the U.A. seal. Excitement surged through you; this was where your Broccoli would embark on his journey into the hallowed halls of heroism. Your tail wagged eagerly, and Izuku gazed at the letter before hastening into his dwelling and sealing the door.

You emitted a slight whine, attempting to follow, but Inko gently restrained your tail. "Let Izuku peruse his letter. He shall emerge when prepared," she elucidated. You nodded, acknowledging the sagacity in her words. Patience was the sole course of action.

◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥

"Behold, Tier Geri Academia!"

Izuku could scarcely believe it. After years devoid of a quirk and months of tutelage under All Might, it culminated in this—a coveted acceptance into U.A.!

"This is for you, Y/N-san! You and Mother were my sole advocates in my pursuit of becoming a true hero, and now you shall take pride in my accomplishment," he confessed with a blush.

She was the initial confidante regarding One for All. She aided him through adversity, and now he was prepared to reciprocate. He opened the door and espied his mother and you, anxiously awaiting. Izuku smiled and nodded, confirming his success. His mother was overjoyed, tears streaming down her face, and your tail could not cease its jubilant wagging. It was an endearing spectacle, especially considering your formidable dinosaur nature.

"I apprised you, Broccoli-san, that success was within your grasp. Indeed, you have surpassed expectations," you exclaimed, giving Izuku an affectionate nudge. "Affirmative. Henceforth, I shall not evade challenges. I shall confront and triumph, emerging as the hero I aspire to be!" he declared, raising his fist and striking a pose, while you emitted laughter, your talons creating rhythmic clapping sounds.

"Transcend limits!"

"PLUS ULTRA!"

◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥◤◢◣◥

"Izuku, are you prepared?"

"Yes."

"Are you certain? You didn't pack any action figures, right?"

"I have everything."

She sounded like a mother I never had, you pondered as Izuku secured his backpack. "I don't want to be late," he said, opening the door when you both spoke, "Izuku/Broccoli." He halted and turned. "What?" His mom smiled with tears. "I'm proud of you, son," she said. You grinned, teeth fully displayed, crooked and prodding. Izuku smiled and nodded.

"I will see you guys later." Then he left; you sighed and nudged Inko with your snout. "He has come far; don't worry about him. He'll go further," you reassured her. You pushed the door open and turned to her. "I'll be outside and hunt. I probably won't be back until sunset." She nodded, and you left.

You trudged toward the forest and started to sniff it out. You caught quiet murmurs until you spotted a giant truck rolling down the hill. It was moving too fast for something like that, and from up here, there were no humans in it; you turned invisible and ran down the hill, careful not to dislodge any stones and cause a rockslide. As you approached, you could see there was traffic below.

It was going to crush those humans inside; if you didn't stop it before it hit, you quickly increased your pace and ran in front of the truck. People watched the car go by as you snapped your jaws open and turned visible; your strength was just enough to keep the vehicle from toppling over.

It did leave dents in the exterior, but those humans were safe. "Woah! It's that dinosaur!" someone shouted. Another tried to take a phone, but you turned invisible. Damn, it had almost been captured on camera. I can't have that.

Thank Odin for your quick reflexes. But you didn't know that a pro hero spotted you during the save.

"Interesting, a dinosaur quirk that can turn invisible too. With quick reflexes like that, who knows how strong it is?" he mused, putting his fingers to his chin, and his red wings ruffled as he flew away.

"No way! Lying about kicking people out on the first day?" you asked, shocked as Izuku nodded. He told you everything that happened at U.A., the quirk assessment test, the Kacchan human, and the penalty. He made new friends. "That's great, Broccoli! You might've been last place, but you're still in." You then had a sudden realization.

"Oh! I forgot to give you something after your exam." You grabbed a box between your jaws carefully and handed it to Suzaku. "I don't know what it is, but it had All Might on it, so I thought you'd like it." You gave him the box slightly covered in saliva. He held it in shock, and tears poured out, making you freak out. "Woah, Broccoli?" you asked gently.

"Y/N, YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU HAVE! THIS IS THE LIMITED EDITION OF ALMIGHTY LUNCH BOX COLLECTIONS! HAVING ALL FIVE LUNCHBOXES, THERE'S A LITTLE ALL MIGHT TOY INSIDE!" he yelled, opening the lunch box and pulling out an All Might figure, pushing it to say, 'I am Here!'

"Umm, you're welcome?" Humans are strange. "Thank you so much; I needed this after what happened," he said, looking at the toy. Even after getting last place, having Aizawa say that I'll never be a hero, and Kacchan trying to attack me, Y/n never fails to make me smile, Izuku thought.

No matter what happens, I'll be your hero!
