Waves Find Their Land

Chapter 25: A Much Needed Talk

Izuku Midoriya was currently looking for someone.

After looking he found the person with a ice pack on his nose, "Hisashi!"

Hisashi turned, "What the hell do you want?"

"I figured you should know. Endeavor burned up the contract."

Hisashi spit up blood, "I figured. Bet your happy for some stupid reason."

"What do you mean for some stupid reason?"

He scoffed, "That money would have been a great way for you to open up a hero agency."

"I don't need your money. I will earn my money. Not to mention I already have a hero agency lined up."

"How the hell did you manage that?"

"Yagi isn't just my personal trainer. He is All Might's secretary. And his best friend."

Hisashi raised an eyebrow, "The hell does that matter?"

"How old do you think All Might is?"

He rubbed his chin, "Um. 30 or something?"

"49."

"What are you trying to say?"

"Easy. All Might knows about me and has been teaching me about running his agency."

"Wait so are you his successor?"

Izuku shook his head, "No. He just thinks I am the best person to take over his agency. He doesn't want to just give it over to some hero or just sell it."

Hisashi nodded, "That makes sense." He put pressure on the ice pack, "I guess I will be seeing you around."

He sighed, "Wait."

Hisashi stopped, "What?"

"I have to ask. And I want you to answer me honestly. I deserve that much."

"What is it?"

"Why in gods name were you not here. Mom said it was because I was quirkless. And maybe that is true. But I wanna hear it out of your mouth. No I don't want to. I need too. You owe me this."

Hisashi was silent for a moment. But he eventually spoke, "Whenever you were born I went to America to gain more money. But while I was over there I saw more quirkless people there then I ever have."

"America does have one of the highest quirkless rates."

"Yeah. But I saw how they tried to be on the same field as people with quirks. And every time they failed. And it angered me. How could someone without a power try and stand on the same level as people that had one."

Izuku grit his teeth, "What do you count as trying to stand on the same level?"

"Where they thought they should be treated equally. People born without quirks are simply beneath ones born with quirks."

"So your quirkest. Great."

He shrugged, "Guess so."

"I hate you even more now."

"I figured."

"I am gonna say something. My goal as a hero is to bring everyone together. To get rid of quirkest. I want everyone to be treated equally. So your way of thinking? It is the opposite of what I want to inspire in people as a hero. Think on that." He then walked away leaving Hisashi alone to think.

Izuku walked back to the stadium and sat next to Nejire, "Hey Honey."

Nejire looked over, "Izuku!" She hugged him tight, "I missed you! Where did you go?"
