Voodoo Deku

Becoming the Successor

 Izuku came to Dagoba Municipal beach bright and early as All Might had requested to see the sad shape it was in. What was once a beautiful beach he would play on when he was younger, now became an illegal dumping site for people. He didn't think about this long with All Might showing up not long after him. "So I'm assuming this has something to do with the beach?" "Correct young Midoriya. We have 10 months until the beginning of the entrance exams. I want you to clean up the coastline of this entire beach within that time. Once you do, you should be ready for OFA." Izuku took a look at the beach before loosening up his arms a bit. "I'll have the whole thing done by that time."

He immediately went down to begin lifting a large fridge. He struggled at first, but was able to carry it after getting a good grip on it. The small boy began placing it on the corner of the sidewalk with All Might pointing to his pickup truck. He quickly went to grab some more things to get the truck filled before the duo took it to the local dump. All Might took the liberty of explaining his quirk while they rode and how he can pass it on to others because of it. This started to make a little more sense with the young voodoo user before getting to the dump. Izuku lugged the stuff off before being given a bunch of papers by his teacher. "Starting today, you will do this routine in hopes to become a more suitable successor of the quirk. When you do, I will give you OFA. Any questions?" Izuku glanced over the workout parts and shook his head. "Seems simple enough. I've done a little of something similar to this on my own." "Good to hear it."

And like that, Izuku began to work as hard as he could to become a worthy candidate of OFA. He managed his studies and training rather well. He had a bit of trouble getting his study in his dark arts in, but he managed in some way. He did marvel at how well put out the whole thing was. The blond hero went so far as to place even the amount of sleep he'd get in to kinda impress the green haired boy. Once month 5 hit, Izuku was about halfway through his own personal goal with fatigue from the constant abuse now sinking in. "Nnnngh!" He began to struggle with a large washing machine to make his mentor notice.

"What's wrong kid, you've lifted heavier things in your time training. What's the hold up?" Izuku began panting as he kept trying to lift the washing machine. "Now I get. You overworked your body and now it can't keep up." All Might tried to get Izuku to take the day off at that point with him ignoring his offer. "If I want to become a great hero, I need to become stronger. I had to deal with being behind everyone for almost 10 years, I'm not giving up that easily!" The determination in the boy inspired the pro to help him even more. "You remind me much of myself when I was younger, my boy. So let me help you out by tweaking your regimine a bit." Izuku nodded as he finally got a second wind to get the machine up to carry it to the truck.

Day before the exam

Izuku looked at the beach that he'd been working on for nearly 10 brutal months to finally see it clean. "Nicely done young Midoriya. Not only did you do what I asked, but you went the extra mile and cleaned the entire beach in a shorter time than I expected." "Thank you sir, it feels good knowing I did something like this too." Izuku smirked in satisfaction as All Might turned into his buff form. "Have satisfaction in this young Izuku Midoriya. Unlike many, you had to earn this power with your own two hands." All Might pulled a hair off of his head to hold it in his hand. "Now, eat this!" "Uh, come again?" "To obtain my power, you need to ingest my DNA. Now, EAT!" "....The way that sounded was a little off, but does it have to be hair?" "Just eat the hair dammit!" '*sigh* Why do I feel like this is gonna taste like rancid fish or something?'

Few hours later

Izuku began walking into town with a bottle of water in his hands. 'I drank like a gallon of water and I still can't get the taste of his damn hair out of my mouth! Tastes like warm garbage.' Izuku shivered remembering when a spell he did went wrong and exploded in his face. He unfortunately had his mouth open for him to taste what was meant to act as a sludge to immobilize people made out of common trash people throw away. To say he's not happy he knows what the taste was would be an understatement. While walking in a library, he noticed two people inside. One was a girl with vines in her hair, the other was a blond that seemed to be constantly trying to make smartallic remarks.
