My Ninja Hero Academia:The Prologue

Chapter 2 What It Takes To Be A Hero

[ALL MIGHT laughs]

[IZUKU gasps]

Fear not, citizens.
Hope has arrived.

Because I am here.

[yells]

He's the coolest
in the universe!

And once I get my Quirk, I'm
gonna be a hero, just like him!

Sorry, kid, It's
not gonna happen.

[IZUKU] Even if I'll
never have superpowers...

You're worse than the
rest of these rejects,

you Quirkless wannabe.

Do you really think they'd
let someone like you in

when they could have me?

You'd never be able to hang
with the best of the best.

[IZUKU] Even if everyone
thinks I'm useless...

[IZUKU'S MOM] I'm sorry, Izuku.
I wish things were different.

[IZUKU'S MOM sobs]

[IZUKU]
Mom.

That's not what I needed you
to say. Couldn't you see?

Despite everything,
I still dream.

And I have to know.

Is it possible to become a hero,
even if I don't have a Quirk?

[IZUKU] I'm a normal
kid without any powers.

Could I ever hope to
be someone like you?

[IZUKU whimpers]

Without a Quirk?

[grunts]

[ALL MIGHT grunting, groaning]

[ALL MIGHT] Oh, no.
Not now, dammit! Not here!

People think I don't
have a chance.

That not having any powers
makes me some kinda weakling.

My classmates like
to make fun of me.

But you know what?

That makes me wanna
prove them wrong.

Ever since I was a kid,
I've thought that saving people

is the coolest thing you can do.

I want people to see my
fearless smile and feel safe.

And be the kind of hero

everyone in the world
looks up to. Just like you!

[IZUKU yelps]

[IZUKU screams]

[CROWD chattering]

[SLUDGE VILLAIN 1A grunting]

[SLUDGE VILLAIN 1A]
Where am I? What happened?

[ALL MIGHT]
Texas...

[SLUDGE VILLAIN 1A]
Oh, yeah. That bastard.

[SLUDGE VILLAIN 1A]
If it wasn't for him,

I'd be out of town already.

[FRIEND 1B]
That was rough.

Weren't you and Midoriya good
friends back when you were kids?

Yeah, you were a little
harsh with him today.

Baku:It's his own fault
for gettin' in my way.

[SLUDGE VILLAIN 1A yelps]

You shouldn't waste
your time on the guy.
