After the USJ incident, everyone was locked up except for those who escaped, which was Shigaraki and Kurogiri. The Nomu followed all demands, and his detainment went smoothly. After that ruckus, class A had the day off. Aizawa, which was bandaged up, was with Present Mic looking at some security footage. They found a few interesting things. They found where the electric guy came in to disrupt the communications and where all the students were sent. The two looked over it. They saw how well they all fought to survive, which was really well. In fact, they saw the clip of Tsu, Mineta, and Izuku taking out a bunch of villains in one go. Aizawa was impressed. That was until Aizawa looked further into it. Izuku has a determined look on his face. At the same time it was slightly exhausted from something. He could tell Izuku knew what he was doing, but in the most detailed way possible.
Even before the attack, he was staring at where they'd appear. He somehow knew this. He even predicted that Nomu's fist attack. That's impressive... but is there more to it? Aizawa thought to himself. He sighed, deciding to ask later. After a bit more analysis, they decided to let the police take over. Aizawa wanted some rest after facing off against dozens of villains along with being pinned down by masculine bird. He walked off with his question in mind.
How did Midoriya know..?At the same time, Class 1-A were being checked up. Nobody was hurt other than Izuku, who hurt himself with his quirk. After an examination, some questions, and other stuff, they were free to go. Izuku started heading home alone. That was until Bakugo bumped into him.
"Nerd. Follow me." He said. Izuku was confused but followed him anyway. He realized One for All has a security measure where Izuku's body with auto set itself to a low percentage so it doesn't kill the person he hits. If he had to, he'd use it. Bakugo brought him somewhere nobody would be at. He then stopped.
"How'd you do it?" He asked. Izuku assumes he was talking about One for All.
"Well, my quirk manifested a little late. It's super powerful, I know and—"
"That's not what I was talking about. How's you know?" He asked again. Izuku was confused.
"What?" He asked.
"How'd you know what was gonna happen?" He asked. Izuku was confused until he realized it.
"Well, I don't know what you're talking about." Izuku said.
"Don't try to ply it off! I saw the look on your eyes! Everyone was afraid except you! You seemed to know every move everyone made! You didn't even flinch from the smoke!" Bakugo shouted. Izuku didn't know how to respond.
"I saw from a distance! I was in a building! I saw you and the other extras take out multiple villains! You didn't even seem satisfied! It's like you knew what was gonna happen!" Bakugo shouted again. Izuku didn't know how to respond still. He couldn't respond.
"Even back when you saved me! You dodged every attack and got to me! Even if you almost died, you knew al the attacks! How!?" Bakugo shouted. Izuku sighed.
"I don't know what you mean..." Izuku said.
"GOD DAMIT! YOUR FORTUNE TELLING WON'T GET YOU FAR!" Bakugo shouted as he left. Izuku couldn't tell him about Return by Death. Not that he didn't want to. He wouldn't have told him to begin with, but for some reason he couldn't tell anyone. He didn't even think it was a quirk at this point. A quirk to come back from the dead. Impossible was what he thought. Bakugo knew that he could somehow know that was coming next, he just didn't know how. Izuku waked home that night not really knowing what to say.
"Lucky guess? Easy read? I don't know..." Izuku said to himself. He got home as Inko instantly hugged him and started crying.
"IZUKU! OH THANK GOD YOU'RE ALRIGHT!" She cried out. Izuku gave a hug back.
"Yup! I'm perfectly fine!" He said. He later went to his room and pulled out his notebook.
"Hmm... this quirk... Return by Death... it brings me back... not twenty four hours before..." Izuku said to himself. Originally, he though that it would take him twenty four hours before the death. It didn't this time. He stayed in the same day, just before lunch. He couldn't figure it out. He sighed. Every death kinda made him shake. He legit died the boom, he's back. So far, he was crushed, burned, drowned, and turned to dust. So far, he came back from all of them. He trained a bit with One for All afterwards. He was getting the idea of it. He couldn't control it yet, but, he felt progress. He was definitely close to controlling it. He went to bed that night with one or two nightmares. You know, it's hard to sleep well after dying brutally two times. Izuku woke up tired the next day. He had the rest of the week off, so that was cool. He was enjoying his day, working out, getting close control of One for All when someone knocked on his door.
"I'll get it!" Izuku called out. He opened the door to see... not what he was expecting to see.
"Mr. Aizawa?" Izuku asked.
"Yes. That would be me." He said. Inko ran over to see who it was.
"Oh! Mr. Aizawa! You must be my son's teacher." She said.
"You'd be right. Anyway, I have a few questions to ask Midoriya here if you don't mind." He said.
"Not at all! Come in!" Inko said. They all entered the house and took a seat at a table.
"I'd like to speak to him in private." He said. Inko nodded as she left the room.
"What's this about?" Izuku asked.
"Well, it's about yesterday's incident... and what you know." He said. Izuku was confused.
"What do you mean, what I know." He asked.
"So, before the incident I noticed you staring at the fountain. To be exact, where the villains would appear." Aizawa said. Izuku instantly knew what this was about.
"What!? I was? Must've been starring into space. That's all." Izuku said. Aizawa looked at him with doubts.
"Well. I want to say that you did excellent while fighting those villains. I watched the tape." Aizawa said. Izuku was sweating. He was onto him. Bakugo was too.
"Look. You weren't scared a single time. Like you knew what you were doing. Now, I don't want you to lie to me. How the hell did you know what was about to happen." Aizawa said staring. There were a number of things he though. Was Izuku a traitor? Did he work for the so called League? He didn't know, and he was gonna get his answers. Just in case Izuku was gonna try something, Aizawa canceled out his quirk. Izuku gulped.
"Okay... got this is gonna hurt. I can Return by... Death..." Izuku said. He didn't get hurt. He looked up. Aizawa looked at him confused. He blinked.
"Return by Death?" He asked.
"Yeah, it— AH!" Izuku shouted in pain. It worked somehow. He was able to tell him. He noticed a few things in the room happened. A few papers lifted a bit from some wind? The light also flickered. Everything went back to normal.
"What's the matter!?" Aizawa asked.
"I can't talk about it... about that." Izuku said.
"Return by Death?" Aizawa asked. Izuku nodded. He thought for a moment.
"Return by Death... wait, did you die!?" Aizawa asked. Izuku nodded.
"So, your quirk is literally to return by death. If you die, you get resurrected?" He asked. Izuku nodded again.
"Alright. That's all I need to know. Let's keep this a secret." Aizawa said. Izuku nodded, not like he had any choice. He just didn't know why he could tell Aizawa. Aizawa told Inko he was leaving.
"See you at school Midoriya." Aizawa said as he left. He wasn't bandaged that much than he was yesterday, the day of the incident. He actually wasn't that hurt. All he suffered was a broken arm and that's it now. He left. Izuku sighed as he went to his room. For the next two hours he studied what he knew about Return by Death, which wasn't much. He couldn't tell why he could tell Aizawa and not other people. He had one theory in mind but deemed it useless. He just didn't think Return by Death was a quirk. I mean, he never had a missing joint. He looked at his phone. He had to try something. He texted Iida, Todoroki, and Uraraka to meet him at the beach in a few. Izuku ran out the door. He sat there waiting for everyone. The three of them showed up all together perfect timing.
"Hey. What's up?" Uraraka asked.
"Hey guys. So, I'm gonna tell you something, or at least try." Izuku said. The others were confused. Izuku took a deep breath.
"I can Return— AHH." Izuku shouted in pain. He couldn't tel them.
"Midoriya! Are you okay!?" Todoroki asked.
"Yeah." He said. He stood up straight again.
"I can Return— AHH." He groaned in pain once more. He leaned against a railing.
"Are you—" Iida began before Izuku cut him off.
"I'm fine! I can Return— AHHHHHHHHH!" Izuku shouted in pain once again. It was getting worse. The three just watched in horror.
"I can Return— I can Return— I can—" Izuku tried to tell them. He started to puke from the pain. They just watched in horror.
"Goddammit! Why can't I tell you!?" He asked himself.
"Let's get you up." Iida said. Him and Todoroki wrapped his arms around their shoulders. They stood him up.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry I can't..." Izuku said.
"We're your friends, you can tell us anything." Uraraka said. Izuku looked up. All three of them were looking at them with smiled. He wanted to tell them so badly. He couldn't. He didn't know why. He felt bad now. They didn't know that he can't say this. Well, judging from their reaction, they thought something was going on. Izuku looked at them. They didn't even know. Izuku felt so bad not being able to tell them. A secret that he was forced to keep.
"I-I'm sorry, I have to go!" Izuku said breaking out of Iida's and Todoroki's grasp.
"Midoriya, wait!" Iida called out. Nothing. Izuku just kept going. He felt that they couldn't trust him. That he was a terrible friend not trusting them. He did trust them. He would tell his secrets in a heartbeat to them, but he couldn't with this one. He couldn't even write it down. He went home.
"That was quick. Where'd you go?" Inko asked. Izuku didn't respond as he just walked to his room. He shut the door and fell onto his bed. He opened his note book. It didn't say Return by Death in it, but there were notes. He's tried every way to get Return by Death to someone. Somehow, Aizawa was able listen to him. Aizawa didn't even know that Izuku couldn't tell people. Izuku didn't know what Aizawa did. This whole complicated story. Was Return by Death a quirk? He didn't know. He sighed. He went back to training One for All. All Might gave him some tips.
"It's your quirk now. It's nothing special. You're not trying to control something that isn't yours." All Might said to him. Izuku concentrated hard. For the rest of the week he stayed inside and tried to control One for All. The week started again with school and a patched up teacher. Class and training began like normal. The USJ incident was never spoken of, and Aizawa said nothing about Return by Death...Sorry this took so long to get out. Hope you enjoyed though!
