Controlling a Tornado - MHA OC Fanfic

Chapter 1: My Target

Beautiful blue skies. 

The sakura trees were blooming and some of the petals were flying with the wind. I wanted to fly with them someday. But since I can't control my air quirk as well, I can't use it to fly yet. One day I will though, I hope.

My name is Miku Chiba. My air quirk is called Air Manipulation, which allows me to control air particles with my mind and turn my body into air. However, it is really hard to control if I don't focus, plus I can't attack when my body is in air form. I was walking back home from middle school, thinking about attending UA High. As long as I can control my quirk a little better, I bet I can get accepted from the admission test. 

I looked back at the sky again to see the sakura leaves, but something else caught my attention. I rubbed my eyes in case I was hallucinating, yet it was still there. Midoriya was holding on to All Might's leg in the sky! 

I met Midoriya in my class. I attended the school late but I would be able to graduate the same time as the students my age. I was taught somewhere else when I was younger. Whenever Bakugo, or Kacchan, would bully Midoriya, I would try to defend for the quirkless green-haired boy. We became somewhat good friends, but I try not to be too close to my friends in case I hurt them with my quirk. 

Even though we are friends, he had some nerve trying to take down my target! If anyone is going to surpass him, it's going to be me! But wait, I thought Midoriya loved All Might. So what the heck is he doing?!

Without wasting anymore time, I ran as fast as I can towards their direction. I had to dodge the people and cars coming by. Finally, I saw them land on top of a multi-story building. I went around the building where no one could see me and used my air quirk to create a small tornado under me to lift to the top. It was definitely risky, but with my mind set on getting to them, I was focused enough. Well, at least I thought I would be. The tornado under me dissipated when half of my body was above the roof, but I grabbed onto the ledge and climbed up. 

As I pulled myself up, I struggled to shout, "Midoriya, what the heck were you doing in the sky with All Might?! I thought I told you I was going to beat him!" I panted as I finally made it up. Looking up at them, I saw two people staring back. One was obviously Midoriya, but the other had blonde hair, was scrawny, and wore a white shirt and green pants. I almost didn't recognize him, but he had to be the other person.

"All... Might?" I said in a quiet voice, hoping it wasn't actually him.

Midoriya spoke up, "Uh, no it's just someone else!" He nervously laughed.

But I could see through the blonde-haired guy. I was so disappointed. My target's true self is this? I sadly replied to Midoriya, "There's not point in hiding it. It has to be you. But how? I thought..."

All Might sighed. He told us to keep this a secret from everyone else and explained his injury that he received five years ago. He continued to tell us why he still fights in that state. Then he told Midoriya, "I can't just say that you can become a hero without a quirk," leaving Midoriya shocked.

So that's why he followed him, I thought. I turned to look at the quirkless boy who just had his dream crushed by his idol. He seemed to accept it, but he was still in shock. I put my hand on his shoulder. "Midoriya..."

All Might suggested he become a police officer, since it was the occupation closest to what he could be as a hero without a quirk. Then he walked to the door and left.

I tried to comfort Midoriya, but he was in his own mind now. But then a huge explosion was heard blocks away. I wish I could help but I didn't have a hero license to fight in public. I hated how I couldn't help, but it was for the best for someone like me. Midoriya started to run to the door, but he stopped after a few steps. 

"There's nothing I can do anyways." Then he put his head down and walked out. I followed behind him. He read his hero journal on the way back to his house, but we were heading directly where the explosion occurred. We walked to the crowd of people and saw a giant green monster that looked like it was made of sewage. 

Both of us were shocked when we saw that it had absorbed Kacchan! Even though I didn't like him, he was still worth saving. I tightened my hands into a fist. I really wanted to use my quirk to help. I didn't want to just stand there, though a part of me thought I would just make things worse. I still couldn't fully control my air quirk anyways. 

However, Midoriya's charge towards the monster broke my thought. He even dropped his journal. I chased after him but stopped when I reached the front of the crowd. "Midoriya, stop! You'll kill yourself!"  I shouted, reaching a hand towards him. The other pro heroes were yelling at him to stop too. But he kept running without hesitation. What was he thinking?! He threw his backpack at him for some reason, and then clawed the monster to save Bakugou. 

The monster had enough of him and prepared an explosion attack directly at the green-haired boy. The pro-heroes ran over to save him. I also couldn't stop myself and created a cyclone blast with my mind. I just wanted that slime creature dead. So my mind kept thinking of ways to destroy it, which easily allowed my quirk to mimic what I had in mind. But the explosion smoke covered the view and caused a blast of wave back. When the smoke cleared up, All Might somehow appeared and saved Midoriya. I was surprised that he was even able go back to his hero form. I thought he said he used up his three hours. 

"Detroit Smash!" is what I heard before he demolished the monster with his super punch. Mt. Lady, in her giant form, used her arms to shield the wind caused by the punch. A small tornado resulted but gradually disappeared. The wind pressure created a rain shower as well. When Mt. Lady used her body to cover us from the rain and raised her arms, I saw Bakugou and Midoriya lying on the ground, unconscious. 

The crowd cheered not only for All Might defeating the enemy, but also for his strength to even change the weather. Crossing my arms, I was filled with jealousy because I may be powerful enough to do the same if I had better control over my quirk. Looks like you still have some strength left in you, All Might, as I thought, but I'll surpass you one day.

When Midoriya and Bakugou woke up, Midoriya was being scolded by the pro-heroes and me, while Bakugou was being praised instead. But Bakugou was not pleased at what happened at all. 

During sunset, I walked with Midoriya back home. We lived a block away so we usually walk together back home from school. Bakugou suddenly called Midoriya from behind to vent his anger. I rolled my eyes when Kacchan told him how he didn't need the quirkless boy's help. Then he stomped his way at the opposite direction. Midoriya was confused, but didn't regret his actions. Some part of me also admired what Midoriya did, though I wished he had a better plan when rushing out like that. Not even 10 seconds later, All Might in his hero form slid around the corner blocking our path. We both jumped when he shouted, "I am here!"

We asked why he was here, even though he was surrounded by reporters earlier. But he said it was a piece of cake avoiding them. Not too long after posing around, he returned to his regular form while spitting out blood. We kept getting surprised by this guy.

Apparently he came to talk to Midoriya, but he said it was fine that I hear about this too since I know about his secret as well. He came with a thanks, correction, and suggestion. 

I listened silently while the two had their conversation. One thing that intrigued me was when All Might said that top heroes have stories with one thing in common: their bodies moved before they think. It was ironic to me because my quirk comes out whenever I do accidentally think of an wind action, but I forget that my quirk would just let that out.

Midoriya kneeled down crying as All Might told him what the quirkless boy wished to hear: "You can become a hero."

I smiled at All Might when he said that. I also believed Midoriya could be a hero whether or not he had a quirk. However, I did not expect him to say the next thing, which was his suggestion.

"You are worthy to inherit my quirk."

Midoriya and I took a few seconds to register what he had just said. Still in tears, he looked up confused. "Eh?"

But I was even more surprised, "EEHHH!?!?"
