The Heroic Mime

Chapter 13

A blonde boy entered the police office, Tsukauchi recognised him instantly and immediately knew another headache was coming.

"Detective Tsukauci, or should I say Detective T, you look good in pink."

"Trust me Mirio, you don't even know half of the story behind it."

"I'm sure it will be perfect old man ramble material in a few years."
"Wait did you just call me old?"

"Nope."

"Whatever, tell me what you want."

"You know the mime boy right?"

"Too damn well."

"I guess I'm starting to take after teacher Aizawa with all those rhetorical questions huh? Well I'm rambling, let's get back on track. Toshinori thinks he would be a good sparring partner after the sludge incident. Can you tell him to come to Dagobah beach this Sunday?"

"Did you say Sunday?" "Yes, I did." "I don't know if the world finally loves me or what, too many lifesavers, I sure will not just tell him, I will convince him to come."

The same day in the only hospital in Musutafu.

"Excuse me can you tell me in which room Bakugou Katsumi is?"

"Sure, room 313, wait are you two the kids from the sludge incident, I swear had my husband ever been so romantic... Go get her tiger!"

"I-i-i-i-i th-th-think you have misunderstood something. A-a-anyway, thanks and goodbye."

"Aaah young love, and here I am, close to retirement."

Izuku arrived in front of said room and saw Mitsuki frowning, that wasn't a good sign.

"Izuku please help me, no help us; Katsumi has never been so demoralized and I don't know what to do."

"I will, don't worry, I don't like seeing my energetic counterpart so down."

"Katsumi I'm coming in."

"Go away nerd." she muttered, he had never heard her talk with such a feeble voice.

"Let's take take a walk and then you can tell me what's bothering you."

He helped her stand up and put her on a wheelchair, after all she strained muscles in her neck, both of her harms and in her right arm, Izuku wasn't surprised by this amount of damage, she had been KO'd two times and then she had to struggle against a villain, she was the toughest person he knew and he was going to remind her.

As they got into the elevator and it started going down Katsumi started to feel even more useless. She couldn't even walk!

The elevator got to ground floor and they went into the big garden in the back of the hospital.

"Izuku tell me, am I useless? I can't even walk! Look at that woman, she has an IV attached and a respirator in hand but she can still walk!"

"Katsumi you're being unreasonable, the respirator is for her lungs and the IV is for supplying her with nutrients, they don't have anything with her walking capabilities. You on the other hand, why are you here?"

"I have a concussion and a few strained muscles...?"

"Exactly, tell me what makes your body move? Outside of pure anger." she gave a small chuckle and a quick, feeble, smile at the last part.

"My muscles."

"Wow Kacchan, you're now a doctor. Your muscles indeed, what do you think half the people in this world would be doing right now? Yes indeed, they would be lying in bed in a semi-comatose state, thanking their divinities for surviving."

They got to bench near a pond and Izuku helped Katsumi sit on it.

"Bu- but.." "But what Katsumi, how can I convince you you're better than all these people?"

"But these people aren't training to become heroes, I am, they aren't going to be the ones who fight villains, I will. I made it hard for the heroes to catch the villain because I was being held hostage."

"Katsumi I have to say two things. First, there are heroes that specialize in hostage situations as they are the most difficult ones to be dealt with, none of the heroes that were there specialized in hostage situations and neither do I, i was just lucky my quirk was a natural counter for the sludge while yours was countered; didn't you try to create explosions only to find you sweat covered by sludge thus away from oxygen, inhibiting you from igniting it?" "Yes, I did but even without a quirk I..." "I knew you were going there and this is the second thing I wanted to tell you: look at that fish in the pond and then at this small tree. Which do you think is more powerful in the place they are?" "The fish." "Yes, now think in thirty years from now, the fish will still be in the pond while the small tree will be big enough to look over the whole pond and beyond, now how big is this park if we compare it to the world?" "It's a speck of dust?" "Yes, it is and in this speck of dust everyone's happy and nobody's fighting, in the whole world however there are a lot of fights and a lot of people suffer and you're going to be not just the big fish in the small pond, you're not going to be the small fish in the ocean, you're going to be the big fucking fish in the fucking ocean, you're going to be a hero, you're going to fail a lot but you're going to learn from these failures and overcome them, you're going to be a hero, not a FUCKING EXTRA."

"Took you long enough to realize huh?"

"I'm glad you got some of your character back. And about what happened in the dojo you got outmatched by someone with double your experience who had an enormous stroke of luck, you'll get her next time and you will be more prepared."

"FUCK YEAH!"

"FUCK YEAH!" Izuku had never had a knack for swearing but this time he considered it needed.

They continued yelling until the old nurse from before came to stop them and she could barely hold back her laughter. Mitsuki saw everything from a window in the corridor right outside Katsumi's room and smiled, she was glad they had the green haired family in their life.

"I'm going to take her back to her room as she needs some rest, see you another time Romeo. Let's go Juliet." said the old nurse as she brought a blushing Katsumi to her room and away from an even redder Izuku.

"After all you are the one who put the pink in my black and white costume."
