Chapter 1View OnlineMy Little IzukuChapter 1It happened, granted it always happens so no one was really surprised when the building came down with a crash and no warning. In the distance class A-1 of U.A could hear an angry shout from none other than the hot-head that took down said building. What he was yelling about they weren't sure but one could assume it was about, Midoriya. ... Bakugou exploded -literally- when his former favourite punching bag decided to counter attack and promptly flipped him on his back and then disappeared. He let out a small blast nothing that should have made a difference, merely a thing for sound rather than attack or destruction, nothing that should have caused the building fall on them. The useless Deku could be crushed because of this and he would be blamed, so of course he was pissed. This wasn't supposed to happen. "DEKU! WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?" Moving and exploding rubble so he could trek through and try to find the other, he might dislike the nerd but that didn't mean that he wanted to kill him. Even if it was an accident "I SWEAR YOU SHITTY EXCUSE FOR A HERO IF YOU DON'T ANSWER ME I'LL KILL YOU!" Minutes ticked by, there was no movement other than Bakugou, no other voice. Slowly the enraged tone changed to concern (not that he would admit it) . If the other wasn't answering he must be severely hurt. But only hurt cause he refused to be the cause of someone's death. He was a hero after all! Dammit! Where could that boy be?! Eventually the sun started to set and by this time teachers and students were searching the rubble, there were no jokes, hardly any talking unless it was to direct people where to go. There wasn't much luck and as time wore on everyone feared the worst. Around 10 at night 7 hours after Bakugou originally started the search a scream filled the night air without warning. Uraraka had screamed in horror as she floated several large things away from herself. Below her was a pool of blood, most of it was already drying. If one were to follow the trail to find its source, just a bit further was a red stained glove that was attached to the tattered green jumpsuit. It was unmistakably Deku, or at least part of him. Faster than anything before everyone started to dig, remove and slowly free the severely injured boy. It wasn't long before Midoriya "Deku" was fully uncovered but when he was the sight was more then the group could handle. Many gasped in horror, while others turned away, but Bakugou walked toward the prone bloody body and sank to his knees. No, this was NOT supposed to happen his blast wasn't that big. There had to be a gas leak no one knew about! He didn't do this. ... Recovery Girl had no luck reviving the child when he was brought to her, he had been too long without proper oxygen and too long without sufficient blood. One-for-All was lost, a life was lost and one mind was lost, all thanks to this accident. All Might didn't care about the quirk right now he was mourning his pupil, his friend. He was worried for Bakugou who retreated into himself the moment Midoriya was pronounced dead. He was worried for the other students who didn't know how to deal with the sudden loss of the most lively soul. Twilight Sparkle was stunned. “W-Where’s the Sixth Element?” She didn’t have a moment longer to realise the failure of the orbs in defeating Nightmare Moon. The tall, imposing alicorn of darkness laughed maniacally. With a stomp of her front hooves, the orbs shattered in a cloud of crystal shards. Twilight gasped in horror. “You little fool!” Nightmare Moon declared, “Did you think some silly little orbs could defeat me?!” Twilight quivered under the menacing aura. “Now you’ll never see your precious Princess Celestia, or your sun ever again! The night will last forever!” The purple-furred unicorn shrunk under Nightmare Moon’s evil laugh, thinking that all the effort she and the others had made to get here, the trials and obstacles they overcame with their defining traits, was ultimately all for nought. For once in her life, she was at a loss of what to do. There really appeared to be no solution to this burgeoning crisis that would have widespread ramifications to everypony in Equestria. And yet, when all seemed to be lost, came familiar voices hurrying the staircase to the room where she and the alicorn of darkness were. Twilight recognised those voices, and suddenly, she came to an epiphany, her eyes sparkling. “You think you could have just destroyed the Elements of Harmony just like that?” she turned back to Nightmare Moon, “Well you’re absolutely wrong! Because the spirits of the Elements of Harmony are right here!” Standing by her, were her new friends that she made during her short time in Ponyville - Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. The broken shards began to glow in coloured hues, and levitated up. “W-What?” Nightmare Moon took a step back. Undeterred, Twilight turned to the blonde Earth pony, “Applejack, who reassured me when I was in doubt, represents the Spirit of Honesty!” Orange-glowing shards came to orbit around Applejack. “Fluttershy, who tamed the manticore with her compassion, represents the Spirit of Kindness!” Pink-hued shards orbited around a nervous buttery-yellow pegasus with a pink mane. “Pinkie Pie, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger, represents the Spirit of Laughter!” Blue-hued shards rushed towards the excitable, party-loving pink Earth pony. “Rarity, who calmed a sorrowful serpent with a meaningful gift at the expense of her own appearance, represents the Spirit of Generosity!” Purple-sparkling shards swirled around the white unicorn. “And Rainbow Dash, who would never abandon her friends for her own heart’s desire, represents the Spirit of Loyalty!” Red-glowing shards circled around the rainbow-maned pegasus. “The spirits of these five ponies got us through every challenge that you threw at us!” Twilight declared. “You still don’t have the Sixth Element!” Nightmare Moon rebuffed, “The spark didn’t work!” “But it did,” Twilight retorted, “a different kind of spark.” She then turned to the five ponies whom she could call friends, “I felt it the moment I realised how happy to hear you, to see you, and how much I care about you all. The spark ignited inside me…” Tears began trickling down her eyes, “...when I realised you all…” Wiping them away, Twilight turned back to face Nightmare Moon, “...are my friends!” Suddenly, rays of light burst overhead. There hovering above, was the sixth orb. As it lowered down over Twilight, she continued, “You see, Nightmare Moon, when those Elements are ignited by the... the spark, that resides in the heart of us all, it creates the sixth element:The Element of... Magic!" Nightmare Moon flinched back when the glowing orb ignited into a supernova of light. The shards orbiting the five ponies coalesced into golden necklaces bearing a jewel that resembled their cutie marks. As for Twilight, the glowing light morphed into a crown bearing a star from her cutie mark. Then, light from all six ponies converged together and split into a double-helix rainbow that shot up towards the ceiling of the ruins, then rushed down towards Nightmare Moon. Her anguished wails echoed throughout the chamber as the rainbow wrapped around her. The energy built up larger and larger until it exploded with seismic force, throwing all six ponies to the floor hard. It would take several moments for the light to fade. Rainbow groaned, “Oww...my head…” Applejack winced as she picked herself up, “Is everypony okay?” “Oh thank goodness!” All eyes turned to Rarity, ecstatically marvelling at her regrown tail. “Why Rarity, it’s so lovely,” Fluttershy quietly gushed. “I know! I’ll never part with it again!” the white unicorn hugged her tail. “No...I mean your necklace...it looks just like your cutie mark,” Fluttershy corrected. The five ponies all gushed at their new accessories. “Gee Twilight,” Applejack turned to the purple unicorn, “Ah thought ya were just spoutin’ a lotta hooey, but Ah reckon...we really do represent the Elements of Friendship.” “Indeed you all do,” came an unfamiliar voice. Everypony turned to a window which faced the mountains. The night was quickly pushed away by the rising sun, filling the room with its warm rays. From the shining star that brought daylight to the world, an orb of light shot into the chamber before the six ponies. And from the orb, out stepped a majestic white alicorn who towered over the six ponies, with a long flowing mane of green, blue, purple and pink - Princess Celestia. One by one, everypony except for Twilight bowed before their monarch. “Princess Celestia!” the purple unicorn rushed up to her mentor. “My faithful student,” Celestia nuzzled Twilight, “I knew you could do it.” Twilight took a step back, “But...you told me that Nightmare Moon was only an old ponytale.” “I told you to go make some friends, nothing more,” Celestia corrected, “I saw the signs of Nightmare Moon’s return, and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her, which you could not unleash until you let true friendship into your heart.” Twilight turned to her five new friends, who nodded in agreement with Celestia’s words. “Now if only another would do the same as well…” All eyes turned to the pony whom Celestia was referring. Laid prone amidst the smoking pieces of her armour as Nightmare Moon, was a night-blue alicorn. “...Princess Luna.” At the mention of her name, Luna suddenly awoke with a gasp, eyes flitting about in confusion. When she noticed Celestia approaching her, she flinched. “It’s been a thousand years since I’ve seen you like this…” Luna shied away from the white alicorn, only opening her eyes when Celestia crouched down to her level, “It is time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister…” “Sister?!” the six watching ponies were shocked. “Luna, I am so sorry for not noticing your pain, and I hope you forgive me for my error. The night is equally important as the day, and you mean so much to me. So please...will you accept my friendship?” Tension filled the chamber, all six ponies leaning in with anticipation, though the moment was broken by Pinkie Pie, who leaned so far out she toppled over. Luna felt tears pooling in her eyes, and with a quiet sob, she threw herself into her sister’s warmth, “I’m so sorry! I missed you so much, big sister!” Celestia felt her own tears pool as she embraced Luna, “I missed you too.” All six ponies sighed in relief, incredibly moved by the reunion. Pinkie Pie wiped away tears of joy, “Hey! You know what this means? We should throw a celebration par-” Suddenly, there was a blinding flash of lightning, and an almighty clap of thunder so strong it shook the eroding foundations of the ruins, sending bits of stone falling from the ceiling. Twilight and her friends stumbled from the tremor, Celestia immediately shielding Luna from the falling stone. “W-What’s going on?” Rarity shrieked. Applejack quickly found her bearings and galloped over to the window. “What in tarnation…?” Everypony gathered around the orange Earth pony. Outside, the blue sky of the morning had turned deathly overcast, with bolts of lightning cracking over the clouds. But this was no ordinary thunderstorm, the clouds appeared to be swirling in a circle, growing faster by the second. Suddenly, the centre of the swirling clouds opened up in a hole like that of the eye of a hurricane. Out of nowhere, something akin to a green comet shot out of the hole and plummeted to the ground at alarming speeds. It hit with a loud boom, the tremor shaking the ruins for the second time. “What the buck is that?!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed. “Everypony stay close,” Celestia instructed as the overcast clouds began to dissipate, “We’re going to investigate.” It took the group a while to cut through the Everfree forest into the clearing where the green comet crashed into the ground, I’m fending off the creatures that tried to hinder their path. Celestia led the way, coming to a stop at the clearing where the ground had been kicked into a crater with something smouldering within. “Twilight, you and the rest stay here. Luna and I will go inside to see what it is.” The purple unicorn nodded, and the Mane Six took to peeking over the edge of the crater to get a better look. Celestia and Luna approached the smouldering object, and gasped when they realised what it was. “Big sister...is this…?” Celestia gingerly rolled the object over, only in doing so confirmed that it was not a mere object. It was a colt, probably no older than Twilight or any of the Mane Six. His fur was a light mint-green, slightly blue, his underbelly was white, his mane cut short, curly, and a dark forest-green with black highlights, as was his tail. His hooves were white with dark green stripes and red hooves representing his J’s. He had cuts and scrapes all over his body, no doubt from his collision with the ground from such a great height. “Oh by the sun!” Celestia choked, “This colt needs medical attention!” Quickly and as carefully as possible, the monarch of the sun lifted the unconscious colt up with her magic, and turned to the six ponies watching, “We must make haste, everypony! We need to get to Ponyville General Hospital immediately!” “Why? What wro-” Twilight’s curiosity died and was replaced by concern when she noticed who was wrapped in her mentor’s magic, “Is that…?” “It’s a colt, my student, and he needs help right now!” Celestia replied distractedly, “There’s no time to waste! His very life is on the brink of extinguishment!”
Chapter 2View OnlineMy Little IzukuChapter 2Ponyville general was usually a quiet facility. Their most frequent visitors were the local mail mare, Rainbow Dash, and the Apple Siblings from time to time. There was rarely anything worse than a fracture. Then, Nightmare Moon returned, While nopony had been harmed in her attack, one light green colt surprised everypony not just with his arrival, but his condition. Multiple fractured and broken bones across his upper and lower legs, almost every rib was cracked and his skull was almost like a jigsaw puzzle. His flesh wounds were just as bad. He had lost a lot of blood, and his wounds were so varied and random. Deep bruising and gashes across his barrel and back. It was a miracle for him to be alive. His surgeries and treatments were the busiest the small town hospital had ever been. Many long nights and advanced healing spells were spent on the young colt, who now was as healed as one could get given his prior injuries. Still, even so he remained asleep, dreamless, according to Princess Luna. Princess Celestia sat in the room across from the colt. From the moment he arrived, she sensed a strange magic within him. Nothing dark, or violent, but… powerful, old but not ancient, and it seems to bond with him, yet not originating from him. Like an organ transplant, his body accepted the power within him, but it still was not his. That much she knew, and until he awoke it was all she would know. The Main 6 were out in the hallway equally worried for the young colt even Pinkie was quiet as Twilight was pacing around much to Dash’s annoyance. “Can you stop that already, it’s freaking me out!” Dash yelled in annoyance until Applejack slapped her across the head. “I can’t help it, did you see his injuries!” Twilight was going to yell at Rainbow until Rarity stopped her with her hoof. “I know you’re worried darling, but calm down, the doctors are treating him with the best care Ponyville hospital has to offer.” This seemed to work as Twilight calmed down but still worried. “I just wonder how he ended up in that strange storm.” Fluttershy spoke. “He’s not a pegasus, how did he end up there, and with all those injuries…” “Maybe he tried to shoot himself out of a cannon?” Pinkie Pie suggested. “I tried that once. Didn’t end up so good. On the bright side, Caramel now has a lovely sunroof.” The rest of the mares just stared at Pinkie while Applejack had a narrowed expression until Rainbow spoke up. “Umm… disregarding that, did you see his injuries? It’ll take a massive miracle to live that and walk alone.” Back in the room, Celestia watched, surprised as the colt began to twitch and move. He seemed to be sore, as he should be, but the way he moved told Celestia he was accustomed to such a feeling given how quickly he began to sit up. “What happened?” He muttered as he tried blinking his eyes open. He opened them, revealing his shiny emeralds as his eyes traveled across the unfamiliar room. “This isn’t Recovery Girl’s office.” He said confused. “Indeed it is not, Little One.” Izuku froze as he slowly turned his head to see a majestic equine figure before him. She, and from the voice it spoke in he knew it was a female, was tall, almost hitting the room ceiling. She has a white coat and wings, her mane & tail is striped of pink, purple, aqua blue, & green with sparkles around, her eyes are light grayish-magenta she wears a golden crown with a purple gem on it, a golden necklace also with a purple gem on it, wears golden hoof shoes, and also has a sun based cutie mark. She seems to have a long horn atop their head and large wings folded to her sides. “It is good to see you awake my little pony.” Izuku stared at Celestia for a time, wondering if maybe her presence shocked him too much. He soon looked down at the bed. “How hard did Kacchan hit me?” He asked himself. He tried to rub his temple, only to notice he no longer had his proper limbs. As he looked along his body, Celestia realized the colt was beginning to panic as he began breathing rapidly and stared with horror at his own body. He was now sporting a light mint green nearly blue coat while his underbelly was pure white, his hooves were white with dark strips and faded to red to represent his J’s. His cheeks and back had white freckles. “Wha-what the heck happened to me?!” Izuku stammered as he look at his new appearance. Celestia had no idea what he’s talking about. “Whatever do you mean?” He looked between his hooved and Celestia, several times before finally looking back over to the solar princess. “Um, where am I, exactly?” Did I get hit by some quirk and didn’t notice or… Izuku thought as he tried and failed to understand his situation. “You're in Ponyville Hospital.” The solar princess replied calmly but that didn’t calm his nerves. “Hospital! What happened to me?!” Izuku was about to mutter out loud but Celestia rubbed her wing on his head inwardly thinking about how soft his mane is. “Be still my little pony, you are fine. When we found you, you were gravely injured. It’s a miracle you are even alive. Can you tell me how this happened?” Celestia asked, hoping to both calm the colt and gain some information. Izuku then remember what happened at the Combat Training when Bakugo went overboard. “I… Was training with Kacchan, er, my friend. As usual he was angry. Mainly cause I was more easily dodging his explosions than usual-” “Excuse me what?” Celestia asked, now worried. “His explosions… his… Quirk?” Izuku said as his head tilted to the side imitating a puppy. “Quirk?, what is a Quirk?” The question was simple, but it surprised Izuku greatly. For someone to not know about Quirks… “Am… I’m… Where am I exactly? What’s this country?” “You’re in Ponyville, Equestria.” She replied, but Izuku didn’t know what Equestria was. “What’s Equestria?” Now it’s Celestia’s turn to be surprised. She has never met a pony who didn’t know about Equestrian. It was the kingdom of Ponies after all. “Equestria is my kingdom little one, the nation of Ponies founded thousands of years ago.” “Kingdom?” Celestia was worried. Something about this colt was beyond strange. She considered her next questions carefully. “Well, let me ask, what is your name, young one? I am Princess Celestia, but please, just call me Celestia.” “I’m Izuku Midoryia, it’s nice to meet you!” He finished this off with a bright smile that could bring world peace. He is so adorable and innocent! He reminds me of Luna when she was a foal! Celestia mentally thought. She coughed, trying to push down her desire to immediately hug the colt. “Yes, well, Izuku Midoryia, you also mentioned something about a Quirk. Mind explaining what a Quirk is exactly?” “Well, little over a hundred years ago, something changed in… where I come from. Suddenly, people started developing amazing Super powers seemingly for no reason.” Izuku then started to get excited. . “Nobody knew what was causing these Quirks, and while our governments were trying to revise laws with Quirks in mind, a lot of bad people began using them for terrible reasons. Others though, seeing the government and law wasn’t able to protect the civilians, began using their Quirks to fight back against the villains. Soon a new profession took over in our collected consciousness. Heroes. These days there’s many heroes and thanks to the number one hero, All Might, the crime rate not just in my home country but… everywhere, dropped to near zero. I was enrolled in the most prestigious school in my country that trains people like me to properly and safely use our Quirks to become heroes.” Celestia nodded. Her years of diplomacy kept her expression neutral, but her internal thoughts were a mess of worry and curiosity. An entire nation, possibly more, where the residents all seem to manifest some form of magically anomalous powers? And one of these powers according to Izuku himself was to create explosions. Are they like the explosions subclass of magic from the Pyromancy Class or something else? What are little Izuku’s? She thought to herself. “I see, and this friend of yours, Kacchan, has one that generates explosions? How does that work exactly?” “His name is actually Katsuki Bakugou, his Quirk allows him to produce powerful explosions. He does this by sweating a nitroglycerin-like substance from his skin which he can then detonate at will. He initially used these explosions for the offensive purposes, but overtime, he has gotten more creative with his Quirk and has been able to use them for defensive purposes, as well as boosting his speed. He is able to continue to hold in and fire his explosions at continuous pace, allowing him to break through structures and barriers such as Ejiro's shield hardening and Shoto's ice. He cannot spam his Quirk recklessly, however, as doing so will cause his arms to ache and his explosions to weaken.” Nitroglycerin-like sweat?! That substance was banned in Equestria five hundred years ago! And this other colt produces it by sweating?! How is his body even able to resist the heat or pressure? How does his body convert simple drinkable liquids into such an explosive compound through sweat?! At least there seems to be a limit, though from how he talks of it, it seems he can build up resistances to the strains through practice. If these Quirks were purely magical in nature, then he wouldn’t have such a high tolerance for the output of the explosions… could these Quirks somehow be both magical and biological? “I… See. And, what of your own Quirk?” Izuku seemed silent for a time. He seemed to be thinking over how to answer her. “Well, mine is a… boosting Quirk. Of sorts.” He started. “It works by compiling and building up energy that I can then use to, well… enhance my physical abilities. Speed and strength, agility, stamina and all that. Though… I was a late bloomer. So my body isn’t completely compatible with my Quirk yet. The first time I used it I broke my right arm completely and both my legs… back legs…” Celestia’s eyes went wide. “But I'm getting better!” Izuku countered at seeing the Princesses panic. “I can limit how much I use to 5% and it helps to build up resistance to the strain. With luck, in a few years I can use it all. I’m going to use everything in my power to be the hero everyone needs.” Celestia eyed the colt. He didn’t lie to her, but he also didn’t tell the whole truth. Years of dealing with nobles, politicians and foregn delegates taught her to tell when someone was withholding something. Still, It worried her that he seemed to be withholding the whole truth from her. Still, if he was from another land, one not known to even her, then technically he wasn’t even her subject. Still… To have such a power, and it causes harm when used… It reminded her of how she and Luna used to be, first taking on raising the sun and moon alone… “I see… Well, thank you for your time Izuku Midoriya. There are others who will be here shortly, they were present when you were found and would like to see you awake.” With that, Celestia left, exiting the room and closing the door behind her. She sighed. Too many questions and so little answers. She soon arrived amongst the new Elements of Harmony bearers. The six mares all looked up towards her. “He is awake.” She informed, the six mares all took a long breath of relief. “Before any of you speak to him, I feel I must inform you about… his unique origins, and powers.” “What about it?” Fluttershy asked nervously. “He….is not from here, as in from Equestria?” Twilight asked. Celestia nodded. “It seems to be the case. Despite how ridiculous it seems, he is from a land where nearly every resident possesses some unique form of magical and biological mutations they call Quirks. These Quirks seem to give his lands residents what can only be described as Super Powers.” “Like, from Comic Books and such?” Rainbow asked. “Indeed.” Celestia nodded. “He spoke of his friend, one he refers to as Kacchan, or Katsuki Bakugou, having the ability to sweat Nitroglycerin and detonate the substance at will. Creating explosions he uses for everything from attack to defence and offence, even flight.” “What?! Nitroglycerin has been illegal for centuries!” Twilight spoke with a yelp. “Yes, I was the one to ban it. Remember though, his friend produces it naturally though sweat, not by choice. Plus, his land and home clearly are not under my domain. I didn't even know of such a kingdom.” “And yer sure he’s telling the truth Princess?” Applejack asked. The Princess nodded. “Yes. He himself has one of these Quirks, a form of Energy Buildup and Physical enhancement ability that if he doesn’t limit the power output, can and has shattered his body prior.” “Oh my!” Rarity spoke as Fluttershy hid behind her mane in freight. “No way, that’s ridiculous!” Rainbow Dash yelled as she hovered in the air. “Believe me it’s true, but he’s found a way to control his power by using 5%.” “5%!” The Main 6 said in shock. “So, how strong would he be with just five percent?” Applejack asked. “I do not know. However, I will be releasing him into my student’s care after he has been cleared by the doctors.” Celestia informed. Twilight gulped. “Princess, are you sure that’s wise? I mean, if he is telling the truth his power could-” “His land is full of mysteries, but he did inform me that those that wish to do good, that those who wish to use and master these mysterious gifts for good can train to be a proper Hero. He told me he was enrolled in his land's most prestigious school for such teachings. Plus he seems really smart, just has a muttering problem.” Celestia informed. “Plus, it would help both him and us understand this power of his. If anypony can help both him and us understand what causes these… Quirks, then I know it’s you, my student. As for the rest of you, I hope you all will aid in his recovery and understanding of his power.” Twilight was still unsure until she gained a determined look. “We won’t let you down, Princess!” “Very well, oh and before I leave, be careful around his smile, it's blinding.” The six mares gave one another a curious glance before Celestia vanished in a flash of Teleportation. A few days passed and since the Main 6 each met with Izuku one by one. As far as any could tell from first glance, he was an average colt, if a little strange, but he can make anyone’s day with a smile. The day came when he was finally released, and in the early Morning he met again with his apparent guardian, Twilight Sparkle. She was smart, and Celestia’s personal Student. She was nice and Izuku liked her a lot. The mare was only a little taller than him, he assumed it was the age difference, and was a unicorn. He learned about the three tribes and that he himself was called an Earth Pony. While training, Izuku realized he’s a lot more durable then normal as he reached 10-15%. He found this realization to be amazing, but kept the percentage low so he could get used to the extra power. Twilight walked into Izuku’s room, amazed but not surprised to see the colt performing push ups. It amazed the mare that he was so dedicated to mastering his power and training. “Good morning Izuku.” Twilight spoke as she announced herself. The cold looked up. He wanted to correct her, given that in Japan; only close friends and family used first names with one another, but he wasn’t even in Japan anymore. Most likely wasn’t even on Earth. Or in the same universe… Or dimension… “Oh, Morning Twilight.” He said as he stood up on all fours. Getting used to walking on all fours wasn’t too hard, it was almost like crawling in a way, though easier, and given his new body, more natural. “So, guess I’m moving in with you.” The mare nodded. “Yes, and we have a room set up for you in the library I’m staying at. You’ll be living with me and my assistant/little brother Spike.” “You have a little brother?” “Yes, Actually, I have an older brother, Shining Armor, back home in Canterlot. Spike is actually a Dragon I hatched by accident during my entrance exam into magic school. He’s just a baby dragon, but is already as smart and sarcastic as a colt twice his age.” Twilight said with an eye roll but kept her smile. “Oh. Well, I hope we can get along.” Izuku said as the two walked through the hospital and outside. “So, Princess Celestia said you’d be helping me to understand my Quirk?” Twilight nodded. “Yes, nothing like a Quirk has ever existed in Equestria before. Celestia thinks it might be a mix between a Magical and Biological anomaly, so she asked me to help study how your Quirk works and how Quirks work in general.” Izuku nodded. “Well, I am a Quirk nerd back home so I hope I have all the answers you need.” He said with a smile. “Good.” She said, pulling out a quill and paper from her saddle bags. “So, Izuku, according to Celestia your Quirk is an energy build up/ Physical amplifier quirk, yet you said your friend had an explosion quirk where he sweats Nitroglycerin and manually ignite the explosion at will. How varied are these Quirks?” “Well, pretty varied actually. Yes two people can have the same quirk but usually there are still differences. Usually two people share a quirk if they are immediate family, Mother, Father and child or siblings, though usually the kids have a unique combination of the parents' two Quirks or can in rare instances, mutate a completely new and random Quirk.” “I see, and was this the case for you?” Twilight asked. “Uh… No. I got a mutation.” He said, though he answered slightly uneasy, Twilight didn’t seem to notice. “I see. And what were your parent’s Quirks?” “My mom would float small objects towards her. It was kinda like Telekinesis but weaker and less useful, but my dad could breathe fire.” That made Twilight pause. “Were they a unicorn and a dragon?!” “No, just normal people like me.” Izuku answered. Twilight nodded. He uses general terminology like mix species towns and cities. Interesting. Twilight noted to herself. “Okay. So usually Quirks are genetic, passed from parents to child and often combining in some way to create a new quirk. In rare cases, even mutating into a Quirk completely unrelated to the two, like yourself, right?” “Right. Though there is the chance some can be born Quirkless, meaning they have no Quirk. Oftentimes when they have a family of their own, the Quirk they would have gotten had it manifested would pass onto the child or if their spouse has a quirk, the child will often be born with the quirk of the parent with a quirk.” Twilight wrote down the information rapidly. “And you said these Quirks first appeared in your Kingdom over a hundred years ago?” “Nation and yes. No one knows how or why they appeared. The first recorded event of a quirk was a baby born with the ability to glow. After that they started popping up everywhere. Soon 90% of the total population all had one.” “Interesting. So, the Princess said when your quirk first manifested, you… broke your hind legs and front right leg, right?” “Heh, yeah. Hurt like crazy. Ended up passing out but thanks to Recovery Girl I was fixed up in no time.” “Another Quirk User?” “Yeah, she has the ability to heal most injuries simply by kissing the skin of the injured, however the healing uses up the person's stamina and endurance. If she uses it for too long trying to heal a very badly injured person the person will be too exhausted to move even though they are fully healed or can even end up killing them by accident.” “Oh my, are all Quirks so double edged?” “Most do, yeah.” Izuku nodded. “Very few have no drawbacks on the person. The majority have some drawback that either affects them or affects others. Heroes train to adapt or lessen this drawback or even overcome it so they don’t hurt themselves or others. Villains usually don’t care, infact most seem to enjoy it when their Quirk has the drawback of harming others, gives them an advantage when dealing with the heroes.” “That’s… horrible.” Twilight said, sickened by the thought such creatures exist that take pleasure in being so violent and cruel. Izuku nodded. “That's just how it works back home. It’s why the Pro Heroes work so hard to catch them all, but usually the villains caught are basically just lower threat thugs, working for a smarter, more deadly threat avoiding detection and sneaking through the shadows.” The more Twilight heard the more she began to worry. These Quirks, while amazing and possibly even revolutionary… could also be so deadly if misused or in the wrong hooves. The two soon arrived at Golden Oaks Library. Izuku found the structure completely fascinating. “Woah. Was this grown like this or hollowed out?” “From what I’ve gathered, it was grown by a local wizard back when the town was founded. It’s special in that all a unicorn with a magical level of six or higher can funnel magic into the tree and grow it more if needed.” Twilight explained with a smile. “It’s a really good example of unicorn and earth pony cross magical experimentation.” Izuku had stars in his eyes at this point. “So cool.” Twilight smiled and opened the door to the library. This immediately surprises Izuku as he sees an entire row filled with books that look to be in alphabetical order. “Wow, Alphabetical?” He asked. And in japanese? Wait, we're also speaking it too… weird, well guess I just lucked out when I arrived here. He thought. “Well, yes, By both author and title. I was planning on reorganizing it later though. Feel free to read whatever catches your interest.” With a nod, Twilight led Izuku to his room. It was bigger than his bedroom back home, and contained a single bed, desk, and bedside table. “This is nice. So, when do you want to start those tests?” “Tomorrow. Right now you just get comfortable and settle in, alright?” Twilight stated. With a nod from Izuku, she closed the door, leaving the human hero student turned pony alone. Izuku promptly collapsed onto the bed. “How… How am I even here… Different world, different species…” He frowned, sitting up. With practiced ease he activated One for All, just one percent before shutting it off. “At least that hasn’t changed. At least I made new friends.” Izuku thought with a smile before falling asleep.
Chapter 3View OnlineMy Little IzukuChapter 3"So what are we doing today?" Izuku asked as he and Twilight sat down for dinner. “Nothing much really. How are you controlling your powers?” Twilight asked. "The usual. Nothing new there. If anything, after my time at the hospital I seem to be able to control a higher output than before." “What’s your maximum output?” Twilight asked intrigued. "Right now I can safely use ten percent. Almost double my old output." “Oh, before I forget, how strong are you in a certain percentage?” Twilight asked as Spike popped up at the table. "Uh, well… hmm… well… what's something a normal earth pony can lift with ease?" “I don’t know. I know Earth ponies possess a diverse range of talents and capabilities. One recurring trait, however, is their physical prowess. Physically very powerful, some Earth ponies are capable of performing incredible feats of strength with little or no visible strain and enjoying long-lasting stamina as well.” Twilight stated. "Hmm… well, if you can put something together I'd be more than happy to run the course and tests and see." "That would be cool." Spike said. “Actually I have just the thing.” Twilight said. https://youtu.be/j-rvsbEn05Q "Thanks for offering to help with my farm work Twilight." Applejack stated as we arrived at her family farm. Izuku has never seen so many apple trees before. Actually, he didn't think he’d ever seen an apple tree before now that he thinks of it. “No problem Applejack, plus it’ll be easier to test Izuku’s powers.” Twilight said. "So, what do you need?" Izuku asked. "It's simple Sugar cube. Just buck the tree trunks with yer hind legs ta shake em and make the apples fall." Applejack explained. "Alright, seems simple enough." Izuku called upon One for All, 10%. Red veins appeared over his body as green lightning bounced over him. Izuku got into position and kicked the tree; however, the shockwave from his kick affected other trees as apples from left to right all fell together. Applejack and Twilight stared slack jawed. "How… many trees, was that?" Applejack asked. Twilight looked at all the trees, quickly counting the ones without apples. "Twenty seven…" Twilight said. Sheepishly, Izuku powered down One for All, an imprint of his hooves in the tree bark. "Heh… whoops…" “Well Applejack, looks like you have competition.” Spike said, trying not to laugh. "Hush you." Applejack frowned as she trotted over to the tree, looking it over and the hoof prints Izuku left. "Hmm. Trunk's still good, just a bit strained and it looks like ya uprooted it a little, but she'll live." "Sorry. I've never used ten percent before. I wasn't sure what was going to happen." Izuku stated. “It's fine sugarcube, but what’ll happen if you go over 10%?” Applejack asked as Izuku winced, vaguely remembering what he did to the Zero Pointer. "Uh, well… I can't think of a comparison of damage but… well, aside from breaking my arm, I'd probably… well, I'm not too sure. Without a comparison to what I did back home when it happened here I can't explain it properly." “It’s fine, as long as you don’t hurt yourself.” Twilight reassured him. “Wait…did he say ‘break his arm’? Applejack asked in concern. "Yeah, back when he didn't have the best control over his quirk he hurt himself a lot." Twilight explained. "Heh… yeah. Recovery Girl got so mad with how often I was in there…" Izuku chuckled weakly. Applejack just stares at him until she shakes her head. “Well now, I can see why you three came to me.” Applejack said, smiling with a hint of pride. “What do you mean?” Izuku and Spike were confused. "Izuku, a'h come from a long line of earth Ponies, and a'h know how wanting ta' develop yer strength and body leads to some accidents and a few broken bones. It's a common thing ta' happen to a young earth pony. Our magic is related to strength and the earth so when we're young it's easy to get hurt using it. Course you got that crazy power so, I guess it's more or less a suped up version of basic earth pony magic." Applejack would’ve continued talking if Izuku didn’t appear in front of her with stars in his eyes. Literally, he’s been watching too much Steven Universe. “Teach me.” Izuku said with pure determination that surprised everyone. “Heh, uh… Sure thing Sugar Cube…” Applejack said, gulping. She’d seen many of her younger sister’s Puppy Dog Eyes, but without trying, and him being a bit older, Izuku managed to surpass her baby sister. Twilight clutched her chest in fear of a heart attack. Izuku looked so determined, he’s dead set on becoming a hero. “Easy there Izuku, there will be time for all that later, right now, let’s just… perform some more basic tests.” Twilight stated as she tried to quell the colt’s determination. “Aw, but okay. So what now?” Izuku was a little disappointed that Applejack wasn't going to teach him right away. “Well, you said your Quirk enhances your Physical abilities. We’ve seen strength, so maybe next we should check Speed.” Twilight said, a flash of her horn and she was now holding a stopwatch in her magic. “Now, just run to the barn and back, without your quirk first, so we can establish your baseline speed. Then, run with it so we can determine just how much it improves you.” Izuku then ran from the and on back, thanks to his new body he’s a lot faster than he was before, but he’s still slower than an average pony. “Hm. Seven minutes, thirteen seconds.” Twilight said. “Shoot, Applebloom can beat that.” Applejack chuckled. “Hey! That’s my speed…” Twilight said, sighing. “Alright then, Izuku, activate your Quirk, then go.” Twilight said, giving Applejack a small glare. Izuku summoned OFA across his body, he realized he feels lighter than before. When he heard Twilight say go, Izuku took off much faster than he had gone before. Though, Izuku had to make sure to not run into trees, but thanks to fast reflexes he was able to dodge them with no effort. When he was back next to Twilight and Applejack, the two mares had slack jaws yet again. “How fast was that?” Applejack asked. “... twenty six seconds…” Twilight said. Spike whistled. “Wow. And that’s with ten percent right, you could probably run around the planet with that speed at one hundred percent.” Izuku came up to them with a sliding stop as dust flew everywhere forcing everybody to shield their eyes and mouth as they heard Izuku panting. “Wow. For some reason running I felt more strain than my usual moveset.” He breathed. “Dude you're faster than fast, you’re quicker than quick. Man you are lightning.” Spike said, impressed. “Spike, stop quoting cartoons.” Twilight sighed. “I’m still amazed. Going from seven minutes to twenty six seconds, that’s… incredible.” Twilight said, at a loss for words. “You were running at speeds only pro athlete Pegasi has ever reached.” “Imagine Dash’s reaction-pfft!” Spike says while laughing as he falls to the ground clutching his ribs. “Heh, I bet he could give Dash a run fer her money.” Applejack agreed, chuckling. “So, how do you feel, Izuku? Does using your Quirk use extra calories or is the energy it produces independent from your body's natural energy for functionality?” Twilight asked. “It produces its own, but if I keep up 15% it’ll cause some strain and be very hard to move.” Izuku explained as Twilight ferociously wrote in her notebook. “How does it produce energy on it’s own?” Applejack asked. “And, what does it use to fuel itself?” Izuku scratched the back of his head. He wasn’t sure how to answer that. True, this was a different world, but the secret of One for All was something All Might trusted him with, and only he and All Might. Still, even with no reason to hide it, he felt bad about explaining that the fuel for One for All was the Cores of the prior vestiges passed along with the Quirk. “I can’t explain it well, I had this power in a couple days so far, sorry.” Izuku apologized whilst scratching the back of his head out of habit. “Hm, weird. Well, if ya’ll need me, I’ll be getting all these apples back to the farm. Looks like I won my bet with Big Mac after all.” Applejack chuckled. “And I think I’ll have a sna-“ Spike said only to be interrupted by his flames nearly hitting Izuku as a scroll fell on the ground. “Is.. that normal?” Izuku asked. “Yes, Spike has a magical spell on them, allowing Celestia to send letters or even items through his fire.” Twilight informed as Spike picked up the note. “What does it say, Spike?” “Hang on. -Ahem- Here ye. Here ye. Her Grand Royal Highness, Princess Celestia of Equestria, is pleased to announce the Grand Galloping Gala to be held in the magnificent castle of capital city of Canterlot on the twenty-first of-yadda, yadda, yadda, no one cares about this stuff, aha! Extends an invitation to Twilight Sparkle plus one guest." Spike announced. “Plus one guest?” Twilight asked, levitating the two tickets up. “Why’d she only send me one extra ticket?” She only received shrugs from the boys as Applejack went up to her face with wide eyes. “Um, are you alright Applejack?” Twilight asked as she took a few steps back from the suddenly excited apple farmer. “Alright ah course Ah alright it’s just… YOU HAVE TICKETS TO THE GRAND GALLOPING GALA!” Applejack yelled out as she started bouncing around. “Um…what’s the grand galloping gala?” Izuku asked. “It’s a big party Canterlot throws every year in the Castle’s main ballroom where the nobility gather to talk business, make connections and show off their wealth, how much money they can waste on random pointless purchases, and get praised for it by other self entitled nobles.” Twilight said, her words managing to snap Applejack from her excitement. “She’s right, it’s filled with snobs who only care about themselves instead of helping the community.” Spike said, voice filled with venom. “Wait, so… it ain’t that nice?” Applejack asked. “Hardly. Since becoming Princess Celestia’s student, I get a ticket every year and only attend because the one year I didn’t, rumors spread about me becoming the next Sunset Shimmer…” Twilight groaned. “That’s Celestia’s old student who went awol and vanished after apparently demanding certain magic secrets from the Princess.” Spike threw in. “So what do you do when you go?” Izuku asked. “I stick by the buffet table and read books.” Twilight said. “I stopped going after the third time a bunch of racist dukes tried to ‘slay the beast’ for the ‘honor of Canterlot’.” Spike said, spitting at the ground. “They tried to kill you?!” Izuku asked with shock. “Tried, but even if my scales could get hurt by normal metals, there wasn't much they could do with a butter knife.” He chuckled. “As funny as it was, it got old fast…” Izuku then pales as he remembers the party’s back at home. The brutal beating, stolen lunch money, suicide bating. He also thinks he has a concussion one time. “Shoot… Wait, make business deals, you say?” Applejack said. “Shoot, I might not be able to sell my apples at the gala, but maybe I can make connections ta help business!” Applejack stated with a smile. “Hm, true. Plus at least having a friend would be more enjoyable than stuffing my face while reading.” Twilight thought to herself. “And Izuku and I can spend time in Canterlot waiting for the party to end and meet up with you two after it’s over.” Spike stated. “I can show him the comic shops, Donut Joes, and the Cheese War Museum.” “The what?” Izuku asked, shaking his head from his panic attack at hearing that. “You had a war over cheese?” “Sorta, but they give out free samples all the time!” Spike stated. “Ok…..ignoring that, so I guess you're taking AJ then?” Izuku asked, tilting his ear. “I guess so, would you like to come-“ Twilight was interrupted by a rainbow who landed on her and Applejack as the boys winced. “Ouch…” Rainbow groaned as she got up and helped the two mares up. “Sorry about that guys.” She said, looking up. Izuku did two, spotting several more Pegasi moving a large cloud. “Cloud Kicker! You better watch yourself next time!” “Sorry!” Came a reply from one of the Pegasi above. “Rookies…” Rainbow growled. “So, what are you two doing?” “Helping Izuku learn more about his Quirk, and I was gonna invite Applejack to the Gala.” Twilight winced as she rubbed her side. Rainbow Dash did a long inhale scaring the four until she burst. “You're inviting AJ to the Grand Galloping Gala, and not me! You'd better invite someone plain like him!” Rainbow said, pointing at Izuku who’s ears dropped against his head as Spike patted his leg. “Plain…” Izuku muttered. “Hey now, at first I wanted ta go cause I thought I could make a small fortune selling farm goods, then Twilight mentioned how stuck up and snobby the guests usually are, but ah’ could at least talk business with them. Put those lesions my aunty and uncle Orange taught me to some good use.” Applejack stated. “Why are ya so worked up about it, secretly rich or got the hots for some noble?” Rainbow blushed for a second before glaring at Applejack. “Shut up AJ, and no, I want to go to the gala to impress the Wonderbolts, show them my awesome moves. You think they’re going to be impressed with someone as boring and plain as Izuku!” Rainbow said, bringing Izuku’s mood to the point of no return. “I’m not even going…” Izuku mumbled. To everyone’s surprise, Twilight was laughing on the ground. “What’s gotten into her?” Applejack asked. “It’s Rainbow Dash’s plan.” Spike stated. “What about it, it’s an awesome plan!” Rainbow said, getting into Spike’s face as he pushed her back. “Rainbow, you aren’t the first to come up with a plan like that, and you will not be the last.” Spike said. Twilight finally managed to get up, wiping the tears from her eyes from laughter as her horn lit up and several photos appeared before the blue pegasus. Each photo showed a pegasi getting slammed back into the ground, a tree, or even just crashing near a Wonderbolt. “Heh-heh. Sorry, but Fan Fillies of the Wonderbolts sneak in every year to try and impress them or get wing or hair clippings, and every year the guard deals with them accordingly. Speed or not Rainbow, you’d be lucky to get within ten feet of the Wonderbolts, especially if you are trying to show off given flying isn’t allowed during the Gala.” Twilight said with a chuckle. “Watching the poor saps try and fail is the only highlight of my boring trips to that party.” “Plus, stop calling Izuku plain, he’s done nothing to you, so why are you verbally attacking him?” Spike asked, crossing his arms. Rainbow sat herself down, looking rather sheepish before getting a fairly hard smack by Applejack. “I agree, you’ve been rude since ya heard about the tickets. At least apologize ta the colt. Besides, he’s got Super Powers for Pony’s sake, how is that plain in any way?” “One, his appearance doesn’t stand out. Two, he doesn’t have a cutie mark.” Rainbow Dash said, at this point Izuku just curled behind Twilight. “Neither does that filly Scootaloo yes ya treat her like a tiny you?” Applejack brought up. “Hey that’s different, I know her for a couple of years compared to a couple of days with Izuku.” “This is Middle School all over again.” Izuku said depressed. “Girls!” Twilight yelled. “Rainbow, if you can’t be a mature mare, then you definitely aren’t getting the spare ticket. Applejack, if by the end of the day nopony else has convinced me, the ticket is yours.” “Wait, what? What do you mean is nopony else convinces you?” Applejack asked. “Given your initial Reaction and now Rainbow Dash, I can already tell this is gonna be a whole thing with the rest of the girls.” Twilight groaned. “Come on Spike, Izuku, let’s go get some lunch.” “Coming!” The trio walked off leaving RD and AJ as the two started to arm wrestle much to Twilight’s annoyance. Later “So how long until you tell them that you can just ask for more tickets?” Spike asked Twilight. Currently, Rainbow was dusting the ceiling, Fluttershy was cleaning the main library, Rarity was organizing Twilight’s closet, and Pinkie Pie was cooking dinner. “Once Pinkie Pie finishes dinner.” Twilight said with a smile. “Where are Dash and Applejack?” Izuku asked. “It looks like after my comment on Rainbow needing to be more mature, I think Applejack is giving lessons in being polite.” “Sorry about Dash Izuku, she usually isn’t like this.” Twilight apologized. “It’s fine, it’s not the first time it happened.” Izuku muttered the second part but Twilight heard him. “Celestia mentioned you said something about being a late bloomer… were you… bullied, for not having a Quirk at the normal age?” “(Sigh) No, at age 4 is where your quirk starts to develop, everyone in my class had already gotten theirs but I didn’t. I was the only quirkless child. You’re basically treated like an outcast.” Twilight looked down, rubbing her own leg. “I can… relate…” Twilight said. “You… got bullied?” Izuku asked. “Growing up my magic… wasn’t strong. Most foals my age could levitate and perform a small amount of spells, but for me… it all came much… harder. Still, I studied, trained, and almost gave up on it all.” “What happened then?” Izuku said while wiping his tears. “Well, I thought that even if I couldn’t cast magic, I could still study it. So my parents enrolled me into Celestia’s school, the best magic school in Canterlot. But… there was an entrance exam… a magic entrance exam… I failed it, but… um… then there was an explosion. I had a magic surge and, heh, well… It was crazy. Celestia managed to calm me down and reversed the damage. Despite that it was a surge and accidental, she took me on as her student, and I did end up hatching Spike… it all worked out because someone, my idol even… believed in me.” “So how did they treat you now?” "Well, to be honest I did have… some friends, though thinking back I wasn't a good friend to them. I focused on studies and basically ignored them. I know they treated me well but There we're a few who did still resent me because I was Celestia's student. It's a position only one foal gets basically in a generation so I got a lot of jealous bullies, though I rarely saw them since I stayed inside studying all the time." “Did you ever feel lonely?” "My big brother is a guard and Celestia often assigned him to bodyguard me on outings so not really. Honestly aside from the Princess and Shining Armor and my parents I've never cared for anyone else's company." “So what was Spike to you?” "Well, for a long time I wasn't sure. I was only nine when I hatched him so… so for a long time I wasn't sure. When he was still very much a baby I studied him but, as he grew up and began talking and walking and learning he ended up becoming a little brother I never realized I had. When I began independent studies Spike volunteered to be my assistant. Celestia thought it would be a good idea so I wasn't alone all the time and having Spike around has been fun. His little sarcastic and sassy quips helped keep my ego in check many times. Though I think it’s my fault he’s been watching too much Danny Phantom.” Izuku looked down in thought. Should I ask her, but I don’t want to ruin her trust, but I want to know. “So what does that make me then?” Izuku asked the million dollar question. "Well, that makes you a friend, Izuku. I may not have known you for long, but I can tell you have a good, pure heart and a strong sense of justice and a moral compass that could probably put Applejack's to shame. And despite the fact your own power can hurt you so badly, rather than fear it or ignore it, you're working hard to master it. I feel honored to know you, and to count you as my friend, if not, my family." Izuku's eyes start to water as he hugs Twilight while saying thank you over and over. He’s never had positive attention to the point he didn’t even know what was a compliment. His mom was hardly there for him, and his dad or his family didn’t want him just because he was quirkless. Twilight happily returned the hug. Smiling, Twilight happily presented each of her friends with a ticket to the Gala. "So, you could have just asked for more this whole time?" Applejack asked. "Yes, but I felt I needed to get a point across. As well as set some ground rules." Twilight explained. “What kind of ground rules if you don’t mind me asking?” Fluttershy said softly with the rest agreeing. "Firstly, Rainbow, no bothering the Wonderbolts. As hilarious as it might be to watch you get tackled and chased by the royal guard, you are a friend so try not to get into trouble." "Fine…" Rainbow grumbled, her head having a few bumps from Granny Smith's lessons in Manners. "Fluttershy, I know you want to see and meet the animals within the Canterlot Garden, but those animals are extremely wary of ponies. Majority of them are there because they lost their habitats and homes and ponies they don't know they especially avoid. So while your talent with animals is impressive, please don't get upset if they avoid you during the night." "Oh. Um, alright." Fluttershy answered. “Rarity, don’t try to bother Celestia’s nephew. He’s not going to be interested." Twilight stated simply. "Whatever not? How could he resist my beauty?" "He's gay." If a pin dropped you could hear it with the silence in the room as Twilight stated that. "He's…" Rarity started. "Not attracted to mares." Twilight nodded. "It's a little known fact and the main reason why he is so rude to mares since so many try and court him and he wants none of it." Rarity was stammering as Fluttershy patted her back in comfort. Applejack, RD, and Pinkie were trying not to laugh. "Pinkie Pie." Twilight stared, getting the Pink mare's attention. "This is a formal party, meaning no one will enjoy your usual games and party style." "But… not even my cakes?!" The pink mare asked. "Afraid not… but, they do keep a separate room for the nobles' foals to gather while the adults talk. I know for a fact they will enjoy your kind of party." Pinkie Pie quickly beamed. "Yippee!!! I can still do a Pinkie Pie Party at the gala! Just for the foals!" Twilight nodded. "And lastly, Izuku, Spike." The teen and dragon froze. "Have fun in the streets of Canterlot, and try to meet up with us at Donuts Joe's when the Gala ends at midnight." Izuku breathed out, happy he didn't have to attend such an event. “Alright, it’ll be like a boys night out!” Spike yelled out much to Izuku’s confusion. “What’s a boys night out?” Izuku said much to everyone’s shock. "Wow… you were sheltered as a foal? Weren't you?" Rainbow asked. "Well that will change in the coming days." Spike stated. Izuku smiled knowing he has friends that care for him. The shine in his eyes brightened as he gave a closed eye smile. “Thanks everyone!”
