Chapter 2: chapter 2: school
School wasn't really any different from my old life — I still hate it. Nothing really exemplary about it, the same old mundane cycle of "just got to make it to Friday".
The fact that before reincarnation I was a 16 years old leaving secondary and starting the first few week of collage didn't help either. Now I'm a "4" years old having to deal with other kids. It's annoying.
That's why yesterday I ended up not looking for my siblings to talk to them, I really do beyond what my parents in this world force me to.
I go to the same pre school as the protagonist and deuteragonist of this world so it's even worse. Me and my family's existence in this world all but confirm that this is and au, thing won't be the same be it a character being entirely different from their cannon self. Entirely new characters. Or even and entirely new main villain. I'm prepared for it, or at least I will be preparing for it.
Despite this being an au it seems Bakugo hasn't changed a bit, he's still very arrogant especially after his quirk awaked. Midoryia is yet to find out he's quirkless, he's the youngest.
Considering how Midoryia was treated after fonding out he's quirkless I'm not looking forward to explaining that I'm quirkless to them. Though it's not as if I'm scared of them thanks to my parent quirk adaptations I can deal with them easily if they do try to bully me.
————————————————————
I walked into the classroom and took my seat only few other kids are here considering were early. I took my seat which happens to be next to Midoryia.
As I sat down he turns to me and happily exclaimed "Good morning!!!Tatsu!!!"
I smiled and replied, "Morning Midoryia, you more hyper today then usual."
Although I wasn't exactly friends with him, I still wasn't a little shit to him. 1) because my parents wanted me to at least make one friend, Midoryia sees me as a friend so it keeps them off my back and 2) he's the main character of the story. Now that I think about it I could try and impress all night and steal one for all from Midoryia. But that also comes with its own pros and cons. Food for thought later.
"Well obviously I am, you went for your quirk test yesterday, what is it!!?"
Poor kid when he find out he's quirkless he's gonna get bullied enough to lower his self esteem so much that he'll stutter in every sentence.
" I'm gonna wait for everyone else first. It's easier to tell together." I replied again.
"Please, please tell me I can't wait for everyone else. Do you have a powerful quirk like kachan's explosions!!"
"You'll find out soon calm down."
Before he could respond another voice called out.
"What are you losers talking about?" Bakugos voice called out, walking towards us with to random kids besides him. Never bother to remember there names not like there any important anyway.
"Moring to you to bakugo." I greeted him. Like Midoryia our relationship isn't exactly that of friends but it keeps my parents of my back. If I had to describe him he'd be like that one friend who just a prick but friends with him anyways since your in the same class/school.
"Good morning kachan!!! We're talking about Tatsu's quirk." Midoryia ever the hyper and pure child exclaimed.
"Oh right u had your quirk test yesterday, your parent were pro hero's so you should have a powerful quirk," he continued, "of course mines still stronger than a loser's like you."
"Everyone's here tell us!!! Tell us!!." Midoryia once again exclaimed.
"Settle down," the teachers voice called out," go to your seat."
All my classmates went and sat in their seat as the teacher did the registration making sure everyone is present.
"Before we start the lesson." My teacher started her eyes sifted to me,"Tatsu had his quirk test yesterday, would you like to share what it is?"
Even looked towards me. I could say I don't want to share but they'll find out sooner or later.
"Don't have one."
There first emotion on everyone's first was shock. Can't blame them I come from a family of very power full hero's. Me not having one is a shock. Slowly their faces morphed into a myriad of emotions.
The vast majority of the class began to laugh. Bakugo had a massive smirk on his face. Midoryia looked shocked still.
"Settle down." The teacher tried to regain control "we still have a lesson to get through."
The vast majority of kids and teenagers looked down on the quirkless. But the adults although they would look down had enough social awareness not to point it out or make it a point of convocation, at least the ones who weren't pricks.
Gradually the class settled down but bakugo still had a smug smirk on his face.
————————————————————
Class ended and it was now break the majority of the class decided to go outside straight away. Only me, Midoryia and bakugo and his goons remained.
"See I knew you were a loser, you quirkless nerd." Bakugo said. His goons laughing along.
"K-kachan th-that's not nice." Midoryia said sticking up for me. I smiled at him, walking up to bakugo.
" your sticking up for that quirkless lo-" he couldn't finish his sentence as my fist hit into his face.
*bam*
I rather stop a problem before it beings.
He stumbled back holding his swollen cheek wich was Turing red. Before he or his goons could move at me I kicked him were no man should ever be kicked causing him to keel down. When he did I grabbed the back of his head driving it further down at the same time my knee went flying towards his face.
He layed on the floor. His goon Finlay caught on what going on and reacted. So did Midoryia trying to get us to stop but it wasn't going to happen. I should be able to fight them with minimum repercussions since my parents are high ranking pros, my grandfather being the number one of his time. In a society that worshiped pros I could get away with quite a lot as long as I don't kill them( wich I never once thought of doing) I should be fine.
They both grind to attack me but I was taller and weighed more. Neither of them weakens Thier quirks yet so I have the advantage.
I side slipped goon one ouch and gave him a hook to the liver, I don't think I'd hit it takes training to be precise enough it hit, trying this body doesn't have. But I lucked out and it did hit. His body practically shut down as he fell to the floor.
Goon 2 stopped where he was and ran out the class room.
Midoryia went to bakugo but got shoved aside. Bakugo's plam had tiny explosions on as he charged at me.
"Trying to attack me with this little sparks? Having some performance issues, bakugo." I joked, of course with these two being kids they didn't get the joke but it was obvious I was making fun of him.
As he attacked my I raised my right leg and pushed into his torso sending him back on his backside. I walked up to him.
"T-tatsu-" Midoryia tried to stop me but I moved him to the side.
I'm going to be rather ruthless and violet but this will stop any further attacker at trying to bully me. I should be the bigger person and just ignore him but I rather not deal with him all togotwr in the future, this should achieve that.
I got atop of him, my left hand grabbing his collar, my right fist realed back. I caught a glimpse at his eyes before he closed then…I saw fear. Good.
My fits came swing down.
*bam**bam*bam*bam*bam*bam*
My fist didn't stop even as Midoryia trying to stop me. I know I'm probably going to far, but I have to go all they way through now.
His face was bloodied and swollen. Truthfull I don't even hate him, even when was wachting the show he was one of my favourite characters. But I'm far too petty to try and ignore the inevitable "bullying".
I stopped just as the teacher came into the room and separated us I got shouted at about my behaviour and dragged out the room.
————————————————————
My parent were called in an ended up taking me home. I've been suspended for a week. Pretty light since I ended hospitalising him.
Yuki was pissed and my father… he was taking it relatively calm.
"Tatsu-" Yuki tried to talk to me but was cut off buy Hiashi.
"Leave it." He said with a side glance before focusing on the rode.
"But-"
"I'll talk to him." He said this time with a smal smile. Normally his smile is large stretching across his face. It rarely so small.
"Fine" Yuki said after a sigh.
We eventually arove at our house. All of us getting out.
"Darling you had in, I'm going to talk to him." Hiashi said with a smal. Yuki went up to him and gave him a quick kiss, before heading inside.
"Come."
His voice left no room for arguing so I listed and followed him. We walked wrestle throughout the compound reach towards the end of the cliff, that our compound was on. The sun was slowly setting, you could see the entire of the city from and even UA.
"It's beautiful isn't it?" He asked.
"Yes it is." I replied honestly.
"When I was your age my father would bring me here every morning and evening." He started," He would point to UA and tell me of how Hard it is to get in. How great it is. How many great hero's graduated from there."
"Hmh." I noded.
"But you know what stuck with the most?" He questioned," how he would tell me I would conquer that school, how I'd become the greatest hero that academy ever produced. It worked."
'Why's he telling me all this'
"I tell you this because I know you could do the same, despite being quirkless I have a feel that you will become a hero. But also I know that you cannot."
"That's contradictory." I tilted my head in confusion.
"No. Tou can't be a hero for what holds u back from becoming one." He said.
"Didn't you just say that I could become despite being quirkless." I dead panned.
"Yes, but that is not the shackle that holds you back. It's your ruthlessness." He shook his head," I understand why you did it, I would've be angry if you didn't."
"Then why are you angry now."
"I'm not angry at u for dealing with him I'm angry at you for going too far. I saw that kids face." He started." It was unbecoming of a hero, I'm not going to go into why I know your clever enough to know why."
He turned to me and kneels down putting his hands on my shoulders." From the moment you could speak I knew you were different, you have experience and intelligence that goes beyond just being a prodigy. I have my own theories of how…. But that doesn't matter your my son, you have my blood running through your veins and you were carried in you mother womb. No matter of my theory is true or not, you are my sone and you will become a hero."
His theory? Does he think I'm….. no it can't be that.
"You understand you went to far so please don't do it again." He chuckled," your mothers heart won't be able to handle it."
"I'm..sorry."
"That's good you need to apologise to that boy when you see him next," he smiled at me, " also you can't leave the family compound for a month aside from school and other necessities."
I don't leave the compound anyways…
"Well."
I felt his arm wraps around me as I was placed on his shoulders."let's get home."
"I'm not a toddler anymore." I said from atop his shoulders.
"Bahahahaah, doesn't matter your still my some let go." He said speeding home.
We got home quickly. But I noticed a car parked in the drive though from a man Steph out he was tall not as tall as Hiashi but tall nonetheless he had red hair and a large build…Endeavor.
