Kaminari Denki jolted awake in his old room, the very same room, where he stayed for 3 years with his Aunt Kiko, her daughter Lizzy and her alcoholic husband, who was on rehab now but he had abused him and touched him inappropriately during his middle school years just thinking about it made Denki shudder.
Denki gets up from his bed to check in the washroom mirror whether this was a dream or a hallucination.
Slowly with dread he steps into the bathroom to check himself in the mirror. He was shocked to see his 14 year old self staring right back at him in the mirror.
Kaminari was in a total state of shock, he had time traveled into the past before his UA entrance exam.
Now he could only assume that this all had to do with the quirk malfunction of that blonde haired business course girl, when he had run to save her from the falling debris.
Denki sighed at the realisation that he was stuck in the past and now he had to repeat everything from A to Z.
He walked out of the bathroom and sat down on his bed, staring at his phone charging on the beside stand.
He then tried to test his theory one more time. He then hesitantly plucked his phone out of the charging point and went to his contacts to check whether this was a fever dream or his nightmare.
The latter part had come true.
He could not find neither Bakugou's nor Kirishima's name in the list of contacts nor the Dekusquad in the list of contact names.
Now he was hundred percent sure that he was in the past and he then starts to make a note of what to do, like a plan ahead of his admission into UA. Because he knows from the future events, what the obstacles he is going to face, once he starts going to UA.
He wanted to protect them all and he knew what traumas his friends had endured especially Izuku Midoriya, Torodoki Shoto and little Eri chan.
He was going to help them from the sidelines especially starting from Izuku Midoriya by helping him realise, how he could utilise his quirk better but first he needed to get a hang over his own quirk.
Now with his future experiences, he has an upper hand and he knows how he could make a better usage of his quirk.
But he had to do this all very discreetly, as he later on in the future comes to know through Hawks and Lady Nagant on how corrupt and selfish the Hero Commission is and he did not want to come under their radar and he needed to avoid them at all cost.
Nextly, he will have to convince his Aunt KiKo to let him join her hospital as an intern in the trauma department, in order to learn and hone his skills on healing those poor patients wounds and also learn some gymnastics along with quirk moves from Lizzy, so he could become flexible, when fighting villains.
These were the things he needed to focus on in these three upcoming months plus study and he had to accomplish all these priorities in just three months.
Just thinking about all of the things, which he needs to accomplish before the UA exam makes Denki grit his teeth and say, "Fudge".
Why did it happen to him only!. He was not smart like Izuku Midoriya or had the calm mind of Yaoyorozu Momo. He felt so overwhelmed by the new situation.
He could literally feel the migraine kicking in and he needed a distraction and he got a distraction at the exact moment his alarm clock began blaring and he turned it off, while sighing he looks at the calendar and realises that it is the exact day, when Bakugou gets attacked by the sludge villain and how Midoriya heroically saves him and hence from today onwards All Might decides to mentor Midoriya Izuku, before he bestows him with One For All quirk.
But sadly he could not save them as he had a counselling appointment in the afternoon and he left his two friends in fate's hands.
As he already knew they will be saved by All Might and he wasn't needed there. It was not his turn right now to get involved and make a mess in the timeline and he flips through the pages in his plan book.
Denki gives it a Plan book name, so that no one would bother opening it to read what the contents are inside it. But still he hides it away inside a storage box in his wardrobe for the fear of falling into the wrong hands, he places more clothes on top of the box.
His fear of the Hero Commission was legit.
Then, he grabs his school uniform from the hanger, to get ready for the day and closes the wardrobe door after having one last look to see that the storage box is not visible underneath the folded clothes.
And gives himself some words of affirmations to stand up to his bullies, while fixing his blue checkered tie in the mirror.
He seriously hated them and also the hell hole place called school but now he knows how to stand up to them.
(Author's note: I know there are some inaccuracies in the timeline as I wanted to speed up the process so it might feel a bit rushed and I am truly sorry for that.)
