Over Powered (My Hero Acedamia) - Dropped

Chapter 8

It was the day of the entrance exams. Izu-kun and I were at the beach preparing. I froze time so we would have more of it. He was still cleaning up the beach as I was studying out of a book stressfully. I was having a slight relapse of failure due to my parents' profession. Izu-kun appeared to be done cleaning up the beach, or almost. I unfroze time so I wouldn't have a headache through the exams. It was another half an hour before All Might showed up at sunrise.

He was greeted to the sight of me smirking at Izu-kun screaming in the top of a pile of trash. I gathered all my studying stuff as  the two had a moment. "I had some help from Ji-chan," my friend bashfully confessed.

"I just froze time for," I pulled out the stop watch I've started carryibf around to see me limits, "four hours!" That was the longest I've froze time with another person  out of it. I was congradulating myself for the new record.

"You've both improved," the hero commented, "I'm proud of you." I felt a little hallow part in my heart yell out to me.

"All Might," I sighed, with a sudden change of attitude, "Thank you for everything. Even if I don't get into UA, I'll be sure to find a way to earn that pride." I gave him a sorrowful smile.

"Stop thinking like that!" Izu-kun yelled at me. He knew exactly what I was thinking about. "You aren't your parents!" I shook my head in his attempts to make me feel better.

"Am I missing something?" AL might stop us before we got into a fight between mind and heart. That's happened at least once and it's hard to listen too. I rely too much on logos, while Izu-kun focuses on pathos.

I sighed I disappointment. "My parents are criminals," I confessed, "They've actually been I  prison since the first day we met, for like the twentith time." I just watched as the Nero processed everything.

"I know how you can prove your strength to me," All Might declared with a smile. He blew up into his hero form. "Young Amane! I challenge you to a duel!"

"Crap yes!" I declared dropping everything and started to prepare. Not even a minute later we were standing head to head in a circle we drew in the sand. We were doing it sumo style, and Izu-kun was anxiously watching with his notebook out.

"Don't push yourself too hard, you still have your exam coming up," he reminded me. I needed to prove to him that I am strong. I am surely not strong enough to beat him, but if I could land one hit on him I would be happy with myself. I could easily freeze time and push him out of the circle, but that would prove nothing.

"Go!" Izuku yelled. I rushed at the hero knowing one hit from him would knock me out of the circle. I speed up time on myself so it was like everything was going in slow motion. Physics was also messed up in that stats as well. It was like walking on the bottom of a pool, sorta.

I ran at him dodging the punches. It was easy to tell the trejectory of his attacks when they were moving at a snails pase. I got close to him. I ducked below one of his punches. I grabbed onto his rm and spun myself into the air. I returned time to it's original pase so the attack would have an effect. I spun my leg right into his face. I made contact! I was so glad I lost all focus and he grabbed me and threw me out of the circle. I stopped time before either slammed into the ground and made sure either landed safely.

"Are you alright!?" I asked, realizing I thir him I  the head with the metal of my brace. There was a small cut on his forehead.

"I'm fine," he said through the steam. "and congrats, you landed a hit. Not many pros can claim to that accomplishment." Part of me though he went easy on me, which was obviouy true. Another part of me believes it was true that few people have landed a hit on him. With those two together I wasn't sure if that was an accomplishment or not.

After that I parted ways with the two so I could take my siblings to school. My parents were being released later that week, thanks to my college savings. I was just happy they didn't break out this time.

I meet Izu-kun at the gates to the UA campus. "How dose it feel to have a quirk?" I whispered to him. He just squirmed with a sour look on his face. I took it as he didn't want to talk. I saw a familiar Sandy's blonde in the distance. I had yet to show him my braces, and I was still friends with him. "I'm gonna go bother Baku for a bit." I told Deku while pointing out the third of our three musketeers. 

"Baku!" I screamed my nickname for him as I ran up behind him. I jump-hugged him, surprising him completely.

He pried me off his back, and turning to face me with his ever sour look. "What the hell is  cripple like you doing here?" he asked, not noticing the fact I didn't have my crutches.

I ignored this question. Hee may have seemed like some rude idiot, but I knew that was his way to show he cared. "Look ma' no hands," I declared, throwing my hands into the air. He finally noticed my absent crutches and my acquirement of braces.

"You know you can't become a hero if you committed a crime," he said, fully believing I stole the braces. I wacked the side of his head, aware it didn't hurt him but it still helped with my anger. I wouldn't stoop that low.

"My uncle got them for me you idiot," I told him, "it hurts me to learn you think so little of me." I said as I fallow Ed him into the testing hall.
