(Kanashi's POV)

I was in my first year of pre-school when I met him. Well I didn't technically meet him. I was the oddball out, even in a world of quirks and powers I was still weird. On the first day, I skipped up to a group of kids,

    "Hello, "I gave a huge smile "I'm Kanashi. Wanna be friends?"

The other kids scoffed at me,

    "We'll only be friends with you if you have a quirk."

    "Oh well,"

I moved my foot back and forth on the colorful carpet. I had a quirk, but it wasn't cool. I then grabbed one of the blocks. I made it into a liquid it floating in my hand, but then it fell splattering all over the ground.

    "You see I'm not very good with my quirk yet."

I laughed nervously. They pushed me to the ground,

    "We don't wanna play with a weak quirkling."

They laughed and then ran off onto the playground. Only at age 4 I had already experienced bullying and realized even in a quirk filled world there are outsiders. I had tried to make even more friends over the next few months, but nothing worked. It was only until one day that when I arrived at school everyone was huddled around someone. I walked over to the group and tried to look inwards into the middle. I saw a boy sitting with a beaten expression. I listened around and heard people saying things,

    "Wow, did you hear Midoriya doesn't have a quirk."

    "Yeah he's quirkless."

I looked at the boy with wonder and hope in my eyes.

    -I could try. –

As the crowd, clear I started to walk up to him, but my face turned sullen. Then I walked away fearing the outcome. The years went by and I developed my quirk, still had no friends, and had to get glasses I went into a depressed state. I stayed in my room most of the time, but I also followed who I soon found out was Izuku Midoriya. He was quirkless, so I thought that I could be his friend. I never had the courage to speak up to him. It always was this voice at the back of my mind that told me I would fail.  One day in our final year of High School I was sitting at the back behind Midoriya.

    "So, today class," The Teacher started "I'm supposed to hand out these Future Survey, but let's be honest. We all wanna be heroes here!"

The class cheered and showed off their quirks. I just cowered in the class, not wanting any more denial from the others. I completely blocked out the rest of the class period, because I thought I had enough power. What interrupted me was laughing and the sound of a crackle. Bakugou up in Midoriya's face. I took to action for some reason and touched the floor. It came up and tripped him he faceplanting on the floor.

    "Who did that?!?!"

He yelled with rage and looked around the room, with his palms bursting with explosions. I held back a giggle as the Teacher settles down the class. Afterwards I gathered my books and then I re-adjust my glasses sighing. I then look up to see Bakugou in the next classroom over with Midoriya. I crept over to the door and heard them laughing. Then an explosion and a splash.  They laughed again and then turned to walk out the door. I ducted behind a pillar as they walked by. I then peeked back in to see Midoriya leaning over the ledge of the open window. I took a jump and touched the wall and they turned squishy for a second and then a rose an appeared in front of him on the window seal. I then ran off my silver hair swaying as I ran. Hoping I made a simple connection with Midoriya.
