A boy, A battle, and A buddy (DISCONTINUED)

A boy and his voice

Izuku's POV
My hand shook as I grabbed the little slip of paper. ' Please let it not be Kacchan' I thought before swallowing my fear and opened the paper and it read: Shinsou. I breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards my partner. Skipper was happily prancing by my side, Shinsou had become one of his favorite people out the class, it's kinda cute. ' Like him' I thought and a blush covered my face, I shook it off and tried to straighten my thoughts. ' No, I don't like him, and besides, I barely know him. I don't even know what his quirk is! And I like girls! Girls! not..handsome..curly-haired...tired..guys.' I was so lost in myself that I wasn't paying attention and tripped over Skipper's leash and fell full force into him! This spooked him and whipped around and yell " Hey! Watch it! You clumsy...fool..". He trailed off at the end when he realized it was me sighed " Oh, it's just you, greeny. and hello to you skipper." What do you need?". "Y-your my partner.," I said sheepishly, untangling myself from Skipper's leash. " Ah, okay," He said calmly then All Might spoke again " Alright! Now that everyone has a partner, the teams are as follows

Team A: Midoyria & Shinsou

Team B: Shoji & Todoroki

Team C: Urakaka & Yaoyorozu.

Team D: Bakugo & Iida

Team E: Ashido & Aoyama

Team F: Sato & Koda

Team G: Jirou & Kirinima

Team H: Tokoyama & Asui

Team I: Ojiro & Hagakure

And finally Team J: Kirishima & Sero!

And the first battle is between Team A and Team D! Team A is the hero and team D is the villain!"

After he said that I looked over at said that Kacchan and prepared for a scowl, glare, or some sort of threat but got...nothing...He wasn't even looking in my general direction! His silence and calm aura scared me more than than any look he could have given me. After a moment, Everyone else followed All Might elsewhere, Iida and Kacchan went inside the fake building, I tugged Skipper's leash and walked towards Shinsou. We stood in awkward silence for a few seconds before I said: " If I know anything, Kacchan is gonna rush me first". He glanced at me before saying " Hm, okay." then awkward silence resettled. Looking for something, anything, to push it away again I finally asked him what his quirk was " Hey, Shinsou, what is your quirk exactly..?". 

He looked away and sighed " It's... brainwash...I can brainwash anyone if they answer my questions..". 'Why is he so ashamed of that? It sounds incredibly useful in combat' I thought surprisingly before perking up and saying " Wow, that's actually really cool! Sounds very useful! Why are you so sheepish about it?". Shinsou let out a deep sigh before stating " Because growing up every. single. one of my colleagues were scared of me for it. And...someone... used me with it... and it lead me to do something...horrible...when I was a kid..". His was quiet and starting to crack at this point. I looked down at the ground, ashamed 'Great job! You made him cry!'. Skipper picked on this and started licking my hand, which helped a little but not very much. " I'm...sorry... I didn't mean to cut open an old wound... I was curious just as a friend..." I whispered out, what he said next shocked me. He cleared his throat and bluntly stated " You aren't my friend, you two are my colleagues and classmates and that's it, I'm not here to make friends. I call you "greeny" like a code name". " ..oh.." I said quietly then the siren blared meaning the lesson had started. 

Shinsou grabbed my hand and quickly pulled me into the building, snapping me out of my trance. " Okay, here's the plan, the voice box I have allows me to mimic other people's voices, so when bakugo rushes are us, I'm going to trick him into thinking I'm you with your voice and render him useless, then we go up to the weapon and do the same with Iida. Your job is to say out of sight of Bakugo and grab the weapon Got it?" He said a rushed whisper. I thought it over before nodding and stating" Let's do this". We started running up the stairs and down every hallway, frantically looking for Kacchan in every direction, except behind. The split second we stopped running, He sent a massive explosion into my back. Thus ripping the fabric apart, sending me flying forward, and scaring & enraging Skipper. My back stung as my body slammed into the metal floor, skipping a bit.

 I wobbled back up as Kacchan came barreling towards me with another explosion. However, instead of covering my face, I stood bravely and at the last second I grabbed his reared back arm and body slammed into the floor. He let out a pained grunt before giving an angry death glare and starting to get up. But this was cut short when Skipper leaped onto his chest, stared right into his eyes, and let a deep growl. Not afraid to let his teeth show. Surprisingly, Kacchan was unfazed as he snarled: "Deku, you dumb worthless weakling, get your. stupid. mutt. off of me.". Something, snapped, at that moment. I looked at him dead in the eyes try to hold back my tears ( Which wasn't really working) and as calmly I could stated: " Listen here, someone taught me that 'Deku' has another meaning, one I much prefer. So from now on Deku doesn't mean "weak", it's the name of a hero and it means " You can do it!". And if you want Skipper off, you have to get him off yourself. And lastly, he. is not. a. mutt. stop calling him that.".

 I was barely holding myself together at that point, I was on the verge of sobbing and having a panic attack. Somehow, I managed to keep myself together enough to say:" Come on Shinsou, We gotta weapon to collect ". Shinsou, who was just staring in awe mumbled out a "yeah" before following me up the stairs. The last thing I saw Skipper standing over Kacchan with the same level of anger boiling out.

The rest of the lesson went as planned, we used my voice to trick Iida into walking away from the weapon as I ran up and retrieved it. Once I got the weapon a loud siren blared and over the intercom system, and All Might yelled " Heroes. WINNNNNNN!". I give Shinsou a large smile, which earned a small smirk as he motioned for us to head down. The sound must have snapped Skipper out of whatever he was in because he happily pranced to me when we reached that floor.' He's never been that angry for that long before' I thought as all 5 of us walked out of the building. All Might was standing, waiting for us at the entrance. We were about to meet up him when Kacchan grabbed my mouthpiece and pinned me into a building, choking me a little. He started pounding my face with small explosions in each punch.

 His bright red eyes were seeping with anger and hatred. I tried to squirm out but every time I move, he tightened his grip on me. I was sobbing, telling to stop but he kept hitting harder. All Might was running as fast as he could, Iida was trying his best to pry him away, and Shinsou has holding onto a very fired up Skipper harness who was trying frantically to get to me. The last thing he said before the pin on his gauntlet was " Don't ever embarrass me like that again.". The last thing I remember was channeling one for all into my arm and punching his gauntlet explosion into the arm with it, then blacking out.

All Might's POV
I sprinted to young Midoyria after he collapsed and cradled him in my arms. Both young Iida and Shinsou tried desperately to take him, Recovery Girl, themselves, but I wouldn't let them. There was an entire other part of the lesson both of them needed. Skipper was scratching, whimpering, and licking in a futile attempt to wake him up. The only person who didn't seem to care was Bakugo, the one who caused all this. I furrowed my eyebrows and said " Iida, Shinsou I need you to meet up with others, they are in the building over there. Please take Skipper with you." Then I called over the recovery bots for Midyoria. After that, I darken my tone as I turned to young Bakugo, grabbed his shoulder and said: " Young man, Principal. Now". He looked almost scared as I ushered him to the bus. The last thought that ran through my head after that was ' Please be alright Young Midyoria.'. We finished the lesson and was finally able to deflate and check on young Midyoria.' It is getting harder, and harder to hold that form, this isn't good' I thought as I sighed and opened the door to checked on him. 

However, 2 seconds after walking in, Recovery Girl whacked me with her stick and started barking at me about my bad mentoring and how he's been healed 3 times already. I dropped my head and told her I was sorry while quickly trying to get her to lower her voice about my quirk. To which she gave some smart reply about "Being Mr. Natural Born Hero". I just let out a tired si sigh and looked over at the boy, who had an IV drip and a cast. She said due to his low stamina, she couldn't heal him completely. I then suddenly got an idea and bolted out of the room. I used what little power I had left and sprinted down the hallway to 1-A. I flung open the door and asked where Skipper and his leash was.

 They to him mopingly sitting by his desk with his leash sitting in the chair. I quickly clipped the leash on and sprinted down the hallway again with him and collapsed in Recovery Girls office. Just as I caught my breath, young Midyoria woke up and Skipper went nuts. I unclipped the leash and Skipper jumped on top of him started checking all over and hugging him and room just vibrated with safety and happiness. The last I heard about bakugo, he got banned from participating in the Sports Festival.

Though today was just for play, real villains are soon having their opening day~
