Back Again (old version)

45

I saw everyone instantly hold their breath. These were the answers they've been wanting the most. Who was I? Who was I before I was the Fox? How did I know them?

"I'll start off by saying that I didn't have a name in my second life." People of course were confused and needed clarification.

"In my second life, I was just discovering my quirk. I didn't know what was happening. After a few days in my new body, I was bulldozed by a truck. I didn't really have time to create myself an identity yet."

"I'll direct my first life towards you Bakugou."

He looked hella confused and like he wanted to beat me to a pulp. That was probably true, too.

"Say Bakugou? Did you ever get over driving that Deku to his own death?" His eyes grew three sizes after I said that name. DEKU. He must of believed he'd never hear that name again.

I moved on.

"Put the pieces together. I've given you enough information for you to connect the dots." I left him with that as he tried to think it through.

I moved to Uraraka, standing mostly in front of her. "I'll do my third life now."

I looked her in the eye. "This is directed to you since you cared the most. Even if it was mostly Bakugou's fault... again." I glared at the confused Pomeranian headed boy.

"Like I said before, I went to UA. I entered as a quirkless transfer." I let that sink in. "I was only there for a few days, but I left my impression there."

I looked at Todoroki. "Beating up the top dog will get you attention, good and bad."

I gave them a few minutes to process it all. The gas was wearing off and people realized it, too. They were muring amongst themselves.

I started walking away when I heard a collective set of gasping. I looked to Bakugou as he figured out his half, too. He eyes instantly met mine. I flashed them green and gave him a wink.

"If you haven't put the pieces together yet, I'll do you the favor." I put my hands together and inhaled.

"In front of you is standing the one and only quirkless Aiden Kai!" I faced Bakugou. "And I didn't forget you, Kacchan."

"... no... way..."

"Yes. I'm also Izuku Midoriya. The quirkless Deku who jumped off a roof."

Before they gathered their wits enough, I waved goodbye and disappeared. Their gaping mouths and shocked stares were worth the wait.

They might of just learned that their dead friend was alive, but he would disappeared from their lives for a long while more.

As quickly as he left their lives the first time, he vanished into the night, not to be heard of again.
