Known By All

All Might Chose a Successor?!

"All Might, I'm sure you get this question a lot now that the nature of your quirk was revealed to the world but, have you chosen someone as your successor yet? The world over is dying to know if you have bestowed your immeasurable power to a lucky individual." Mayuri Chorunosuke, an interviewer for the heroics news asks All Might as he sits in front of the man's desk in a talk show like set up.

"Luck has nothing to do on whether or not I have deemed someone worthy but, I think it's best that I finally tell you all that I have made that decision. For years every single person has asked me to let them be my successor, I haven't been able to do a simple autograph for a young child without their parents asking me to give them my quirk on their birthday. It isn't a matter of someone thinking they deserve it, it was a matter of if I felt that they were worthy of that title. I have chosen my successor and I will not disclose their gender, name or even if they live in japan or on this side of the world for that matter. The next holder of One for All has been chosen and their identity will remain secret." All Might replies just before the television is clicked off.

"Do you have everything sweetie? Bookbag? Pencils? Tracksuit?" Mom asks after she puts the television remote aside and walks over to see her son off to the entrance exams. "I still can't believe that you now have a quirk and are going to go to UA. I'm so proud of you." She says with a teary eyed smile placing her hand aside Izuku's cheek and rubbing it with her thumb.

"Thank you mom, and I have everything I need for today too." I reply tying my shoes and standing up. "Wish me luck mom." I say before hugging my mother and leaving the house.

Through the train ride to UA, My nerves were at an all time high. Sure I have been training for the past 10 months at UA and with All Might in secrecy but I still have to officially pass the entrance exams to be placed into Aizawa's class. Not to mention if I ran into Bakugou there was a chance that he recognizes the power of One for All and outed me as All Might's new successor. Rumors of the new holder spread like wildfire, in less than 12 hours almost 20 people with a random strength enhancer claimed to be the successor of All Might. Either for publicity or their own gain I don't know since my thoughts are all too focused on what is to come during the practical exams. I have taken the written portion with Nezu already and made perfect marks on the exam now it just leaves the practical portion. I exit the train and begin my journey up the hill that UA is built atop of. "This is the first step to becoming a hero." I say allowed before catching my foot on top of a lifted stone and tripping forwards. "Or I could just die." I say before almost face planting on the side walk.

"Release." A brown haired woman says before she grabs me by the shoulders and sets me back on the ground. "Sorry for using my quirk on you, but it would be bad luck if you fell on your face on the first day." She says pressing her finger tips together and gives me a closed eyed smile before walking away.

"I talked to a girl!" I exclaim with a dopey smile but I didn't actually say anything to her.

"I told you I'd kill you if you showed up Deku!" Bakugou shouts from behind causing me to jump in my place due to fright.

"O-oh, h-hey k-kacchan. F-fancy seeing y-you here." I say timidly before covering myself and flinching expecting to be struck by Bakugou.

"Stay out of my way shitty nerd." He replies with a scowl as he walks past. "I'm in a shit mood because of All Might's interview. He chose some extra to have One for All over me." He growls as he disappears into the main building.

"When are you not in a bad mood?" I think to myself as I walk inside the auditorium. "Remember what Nezu said and you'll be fine, 3 robots minimum of 35 points to get into UA and that they are looking for something heroic... whatever that means." I internally monologue as I make my way inside the auditorium but I'm unfortunately stuck next to Bakugou.
