6 Chapter 6 - Sound

Waking up, Izuku washed himself to the bathroom only to notice something strange about his appearance.

Everything was the same except that his hair that was dark green like his mother seemed to be fading into white.

'What's going on? Is it because of my quirk?"

The most logical conclusion as they weren't anything major that could indicate the reason for the sudden change. He examined his hair further finding nothing wrong only having his hair slowly turning one. 

It made him slightly saddened that his old hair was slowly disappearing, However, he find that it matches his appearances and had more charm.

'My eyes seem to change as well.'

The once green iris and pupil had turned into wine red that made Izuku appear like a person with albinism excluding the extreme lack of pigmentation. 

He decided to put it aside and went straight to his dinner table where his mother was waiting for surprise at the sudden change.

"Izuku your hair!?"

"It's alright mom. I think this is just the effect of my new quirk."

"Thank goodness, I thought something might have happened to you."

"Well you weren't here last night but yesterday I just saved someone!"

Izuku exclaimed proudly that he was able to save a person like the hero he dreamed of becoming. His mother felt worried at his statement yet as a supporting mother remained quiet.

She had already made a promise to support him no matter what. It would be selfish of her to scold him and let his dream be trampled again.

"You save someone? Tell me while we have breakfast."

He sat down while Inko placed their breakfast at the table having a variety of meals containing the necessary nutrients for Izuku to sustain himself due to the accelerated metabolism.

"Now tell your heroic work."

"Well yesterday as Itsuka and I were walking home when suddenly a speeding truck was about to hit this girl named Kyoka Jiro."

"A girl you say? Continue."

Inko, hearing a girl and saving at the same time, already senses a spark that happened.

She knows how good looking his son is and how caring that only a few encounters with other girls would result in them falling for him. Izuku ignored his mother's sudden interruption and continued his story.

"Then my body suddenly reacted and before I knew it I was carrying her in my arms. Though, I still had problems controlling my speed and did some collateral damage."

"Good work, my hero! I won't tell you to be careful next time but make sure to take care of her."

"Take care of what now?"

"Oh just ignore your mother and enjoy getting to her."

"....Well whatever. Me, Kacchan and Itsu-san along with Jiro-san planned on training to prepare for the entrance exam in UA."

"That's right, it's coming soon! Just ask me anything, then I'll make sure to do everything to help you."

"Thanks mom."

He was happy that his mother was still here as his father had abandoned them after learning of his quirkless state only sending money for child support. 

[A/N: Inko x Allmight 😏]

Izuku finished eating and messaged his friend the location of their meetup. He changed clothes into a simple shirt and cargo pants. 

As he was heading to the Dagobah beach, a thought had been bugging him since yesterday and it was after saving Jiro from dying and it was the lack of equal forces that would have killed him and the person he saved.

It was fundamental physics that every action there had an opposite and equal reaction and yet Izuku along with Jiro survived.

'Is it possible that not only can I generate speed but also absorb kinetic energy? That's the only logical answer.'

He thought that fundamentally with super speed the laws of physics still apply. Izuku theories that this Speed Force allowed him to manipulate kinetic energy defying basic Newton laws. 

"Gideon records this and adds the document to Keter Class files, code name  Speed Force."

Izuku records using his phone that Gideon is connected. He still needs to save files in case of an unknown scenario. 

[Already adding. Done]

After recording the information, Izuku continued his way to the Dagobah beach only to stop recalling something.

'Hold on, what if I go to Itsuka then we can head together? No, that would be a bad idea considering using quirk in public is illegal.'

He shook at the idea and was forced to use public transportation to commute. Izuku took quite a while to arrive at the mess before him.

It wasn't an exaggeration that the city had neglected their jobs in doing community service, especially heros who could easily clean them but decided to as it was not Flashy.

In the end, it was all about fame and glory rather than doing the good deed. Though Izuku understood that it was the responsibility of the city rather than the hero. Still this shows how foolish they become.

He turned to find that Jiro was the first one to arrive with someone accompanying her. Izuku his hands waved to greet the two notices with Jiro slightly blushing seeing his muscle much clearer than before along with the young girl beside her. 

Izuku observes the girl beside Jiro who exudes elegance and richness while thinking she looks familiar with her tall stature and  rather mature physique. 

She has long black hair that is tied into a spiky ponytail with a large strand hanging on the right side of her face. 

Her eyes are thin and sharp, dark in color and paired with short eyebrows set in a determined expression. Overall, he finds her a beautiful young girl.

"Hope I didn't let you wait for too long."

"It's alright. My house was just close by so I arrived early."

"Anyway, hello there my name is Izuku Midoriya, nice to meet you."

"Midoriya? Are you related to Inko Midoriya?"

"Yeah, she's mother, why'd you ask?"

"Oh where's my manners, my name is Momo Yaoyorozu, it's a pleasure to meet you. My family recently invited her to cook for us and I gotta say it was phenomenal."

"Yaoyorozu? Ah the Yaoyorozu group now, that's what I thought you looked familiar."

"Wait, timeout! You know him Yaomomo?" 

Jiro felt she became air and interrupted the two. She only brought momo because of her persistence in seeing the one who saved her. 

"Yeah, though this is the first time we personally meet. I heard from my Martial Art instructor that a young name Izuku Midoriya who was quirkless reached a skill in fighting that could make pro heroes run for their money."

She recalled how her master would shudder at the thought of fighting Izuku who was a natural prodigy in close combat. 

"Quirkless? But he saved me using super speed yesterday?"

"Well that's a long story but we still have time before my friends arrive here."

Izuku started to tell his story from start to finish that made the two young girl to be saddened by how this person had lived being discriminated against just because he was quirkless.

"But I didn't let it get to me and decided that rather than drown myself in self pity I should make do with what I have. I believe that a quirk is not what makes a hero, rather their preservances and stubbornness is what makes them a hero."

He spoke his heart out that inspired the two young girls that if he was able to get this strong without a quirk then they could do more.

Momo was affected by his charm and blushed at how he was one of the few who did not let weakness defy them and find a way to use those weaknesses to grow stronger. 

"That was really inspiring, Midoriya-san."

"Hehehe thanks. One day I'll be a beacon to people and show them that it is not through power a hero is born but the heart."

Izuku is happy that his life would one day inspire people and change themselves for a better future. 

"I didn't have the chance but what's your quirk Jiro-san? From the looks of it, is it related to sound?"

"Yeah, my earphone jack allow me to plug into anything and be able to either transfer the sound of my heart beat if I have speak or hear more precisely."

Izuku thought of the possibility that her quirk could be upgraded and refined. He knew that it could be much more if train more.
