Izuku and I were finally almost hone, and Baku go just ran up to give us his version of an apology before he ran off. I returned to the previous conversation we were having. "Tell me!" I begged even louder. I wanted to know what happened with him and All Might.

I was walking backwards so I could see his pouting face. Behind me came a booming voice, "I am here!" I stiffened and let out a startled scream. I caught myself before I fell. A pain pierced through my right leg from all the pressure I was pytting on it. I quickly adjusted so I was putting most of my weight onto my crutches.

"All Might where did you come from!?" Izuku asked with a frantic voice crack, "How did you get rid of all those reporters?" He laughed at this question.

"I stand for justice! Not sound bites!" the hero declared. "Because I! I am All Mi-" he spit out blood and shrunk. He was no longer the buff hero the entire world knew.He was a frail, sickly guy with a slouch and greasy, limp hair. I let out a frantic yell which was overpowered by Izuku's. I felt like I shouldn't be there, and like both forgot I was. I wanted to get away but I was standing to the side between the two. I couldn't leave without getting noticed.

After recovibg with a couple coughs, All night started talking again. "Young man, I came here to thank you. And also to discuss your question from earlier." Yup I was not meant to be there. Izuku was syrprised by this statement. I was thinking that maybe I could climb over the wall behind me and sneak away through the yard. I doubt I could get my crutches over, so I was stuck awkwardly sitting there.

"If you hadn't told me about your life... If you hadn't run into that fight... I would have been a worthless bystander watching from the crowd. So thanks."

"Oh, no," my friend disagreed, why can't he just take a compliment? "It was my fault he was there to begin with. I got in the way of your hard work. I wasted your energy...and not to mention your time." He got less and less confident as he spoke. I thought there was just a mistake with the police or something, maybe even with All Might. We're all just human.

"I'm not done," All Might disagreed with him, " You told me you didn't have a power. So when I saw this timid, Quirkless boy try to save a life. It inspired me to act, too." We both looked to him in a bit of surprise. "There are stories about every hero. How they became great. Most have one thing in common. Their bodies moved before they had a chance to think. Almost on their own." I could see the realization on his face. It applied to him all too well. I guess you could apply it to me in some cases, but more than not I need to think everything through before doing it.

Izuku started crying. I stiffened, confused and worried. I wanted to comfort him, but i didn't know if I should. He didn't ever cry, I had no idea what to do. I took in a sharp breath and bit my lip. "And today that's what happened to you," All might pointed out. I hope we all knew that captain obvious. Izuku continued to cry and tell onto the ground. I didn't know what to do. "Young man, you too can become a hero." Izuku let out a long screech sob thing.

"I deem you worthy of my power. My quirk is yours to inherite," All Might said holding out his hands to the sky as if he were speaking to a higher beeing. Izuku looked up confused.

I just stood there awkwardly, unsure what to do. I felt i should make my presence known. "I get the feeling I shouldn't be here..." Both males turn to look at me. "I'll forget any of this happened, and leave," I turned to continue my walk home.Not even a full step and I was stopped.

After dinner it was too late for me to return home. Instead of facing my fear of wlaking out at night, I was welcone to stay there for the night. It wasn't anything new. I even had a spare set of pajamas there. I was laying on the floor of Izuku's room, just thinking about what happened earlier. "Ji-chan?" Izuku said from his bed, wondering if I was still awake. It let him know with a groan. "Are you going to do it?"

That was exactly what i was wondering. I knew he was going to inherate One For All, he deserved to. But me, being a hero is rediculous. I would love to be one, but it is just some fantasy I have to keep my smile on my face, and to motivate Izuku. "Izu-kun," I sighed, putting my arm over my eye, "I can't even stand on my own, how can I help others if I can't help myself."

"Amane Jikan!" he scolded me, "You've svaed me time and time again, with use of your quirk and without it. You have what it takes to be a hero. You can find a way to soar past your limits." He could hear him sit up in his bed. I just turned so my back was to him. I fell asleep, confronted by the water dripping down my cheeks.

After he was done tall with Izuku, it was my turn. I was just leaning on one crutch and fidgeting with the excess of the note on my school uniform. I was worrying about what he wanted to talk about. He could know who my parents are and wants to take me away to stop me from possibly becoming a villain. Or he could know what my actual quirks are and wants to use them for himself. My brian had a habit of going to the absurdities.

"You young lady," All Might turned to me.

"Amane Jikan," I interrupted to tell him my name, "And it's not a joke, I promise." He eyed me like I was crazy, which many people did.

"...When we used your quirk earlier to save those two, I saw a trait in you which will make you a great hero, but could get you into a lot of trouble. Self sacrifice," he must have noticed how I put myself in danger for using my quirk, and losinging my ability to stand, and overal be able to protect myself.

I stared down at my useless feet. I wasn't sure how to process this all. "You can become a great hero, and I want to help you to do just that." I looked up and him with a raised eyebrow, like he was the crazy one.
