BNHA: The Honored One

CHAPTER 1

-

Two Days before Summer Break

"His methods were wrong... But he tried to live according to an ideal... That's what I think."

Midoriya said with a certain tone in his voice, a drop of sweat falling from his head as suddenly the surrounding pressure tightens.

He choked as Shigaraki sighed, his four fingers digging deeper on his throat, the final finger threatening to contact his skin if he does so much as to breathe hard.

"Ah... My head feels so much clearer now, like a bunch of dots finally forming a line... I feel like I get it now.

Why the Hero Killer pissed me off, and why you're so annoying!"

Shigaraki looked over at Midoriya whose face paled at the sight.

He was smiling, grinning in fact, like the Cheshire cat, his voice hoarse.

"It's all about All Might."

"... What?"

"Of course... Of course, it'd all lead back to him in the end. Ah... What was I so bothered over...!?

The reason all these people are spending their days laughing with shit-eating grins is because... All Might is, too!"

The pressure being exerted onto Midoriya's throat was so tight that he started to choke.

"It's because of him that, they're always grinning like there was never anyone he couldn't save!

Midoriya, I'm so glad we were able to chat, this is great!"

"Hoff!"

Midoriya reached his hands out onto the grip on his neck and tried to free himself, but he was surprisingly strong!

Shigaraki snapped out of his laughter before warning.

"Hey, hey, don't struggle now! Do you want to die? You okay with all these people dying?"

That shuts Midoriya up as he tried to suppress his choking, fearful of what would happen to the people surrounding them when suddenly.

"Oi, Greeny, Plump Face's calling you!"

The two of them froze as they looked up to see a white haired boy with a blindfold on his eyes staring at them as if entertained by the sight in front of him.

"Ah, Decay Dude! Long time no see, how's that arm of yours doing?"

The boy gave a hum as he placed his finger on his chin, with a thoughtful look.

"Oh, you got a new one somehow. Technology these days sure is advanced to be able to grow a whole arm after I blew it off..."

Gojo said with a chuckle at the memory of him cutting off that arm of Shigaraki's. Good times.

"... Gojo Satoru."

Shigaraki said with an even tone as he let go of Midoriya's throat before standing up.

"You... are a threat to my plans. Every single one of them."

"That's obvious. After all, I'm the strongest."

Gojo Satoru said, with no hint of arrogance in his tone, as if what he was saying was just a simple fact.

The decay Quirk user snorted before adjusting his hood. Putting both hands into the hoodie's pockets, he walked away but not before one final ominous comment.

He turned his head slightly, revealing a creepy grin.

"The next time we meet, I've decided... I'll use everything in my power to kill you."

"... Well, good luck!"

Gojo waved with a cheerful expression as they both watched the villain fade away with civilians replacing his silhouette.

"Ugh, that guy just smells so bad."

Gojo commented as he waved the air in front of his nose, while Midoriya coughed up a storm with his arm nursing his neck.

Summer Break Day 1

9:28 a.m.

"Rest stop!"

"Man, my back hurts for sitting so long..."

"I know right?"

"Gotta pee, gotta pee..."

The students came out from the bus one by one, stretching to only realize one thing.

This wasn't a rest stop. It was a cliff side.

"Eh, this isn't an R&R?"

"Hold up, where's Class-B at? They were just behind us!"

Aizawa walked to the edge of the cliff, resting on the railings.

"To say that there's no ulterior motive would be a lie..."

That was when a few people climbed up from the cliff side.

"Heeeeey, Eraser! It's been a while!"

He bowed at the group as a form of respect when suddenly the group started moving into poses.

"With Sparkling Eyes, We Rock On!"

"Cute, Cat, Stinger!"

"The Wild & Wild... Pussycats!!!"

Silence encompasses the whole area at the display as Aizawa introduced them to his students.

"I'd like to introduce the professional heroes, Pussycats — "

Only to get interrupted by Midoriya's mumblings.

"One of the four hero teams that founded the union affairs office! They specialize in mountain rescue operations, and are veterans in the field! They've got 12 years of experience on them — "

*PUNCH!*

"Ouch!"

"I'm only 18 in my heart!!!"

The blonde Pussycat member struck Midoriya in the face as the raven haired Pussycat pointed at the mountain base.

"This whole are is more or less our domain, and the place you'll be staying at is on the base of that mountain."

"""That's far!"""

The students exclaimed as they took a closer look at the direction that the Pussycat member pointed by going near the railing.

That was when things started clicking in their head. From the place that they stopped at, to the unease feeling that they had.

"Well, it's currently about 9:30... If you kick it into high gear, it would be about 12..."

They felt a jolt of horror down their spines as they tried to run back to the bus.

"Sorry bout this, everyone."

Aizawa unexpectedly apologized when suddenly the ground before them rose like lava in an active volcano.

*FOOOOM!*

And flung them across the cliff side into the forest. Screams started to ring as the raven haired woman yelled out.

"Feel free to use your Quirks in our domain as you see fit! You have 3 hours, use your own feet to get to the facility!

Though this... Forest of Magic Beasts!"

She added the last line as a type of flair to hype up the students when suddenly a voice rang behind them.

"3 hours, I guess it's time to sun tan then."

The two Pussycat heroes looked behind them in shock as they witness the white haired student prompting up a beach chair and relaxed on it, with his shirt taken out, showing off quite a muscular body.

"Hey! You're supposed to be down there!"

"Wait, how did you not get flung like the rest?"

Gojo just stared at them before relaxing his head back on the seat.

"Well... Your Earth Manipulation Quirk didn't hit me, that's all, honest."

And then he started snoring.

Aizawa groaned as he facepalmed.

What a problem child.

Summer Break Day 1

5:20 p.m.

"Huff... Huff... Huff...!"

One by one, students started exiting the forest to see a whole facility in front of them.

Sweat and grime covered their whole bodies as they barely stayed conscious after 8 hours of constant fighting and survival.

They all had tired faces when they saw a crazy sight.

"Oh, you guys finally came! You all took so long, I ate all your lunches, haha!"

Gojo Satoru was sitting with tables of empty and unclean bowls, with his arm patting his stomach due to his stomach looking all bloated.

"""... Gojo, you bastard!"""

That was the collective thought of all classmates, though some verbally yelled it out loud.

"You've gone too far, you damn ikemen!"

Mineta especially yelled out before tossing his purple sticky ball towards the boy who didn't even look at him, before suddenly the purple balls suspend in the air just a few inches from Gojo's face.

"Don't blame me, blame yourselves for being so weak!"

Gojo just laughed harder at that, even slapping his thigh at the cute glares of the students, with some even racing towards him, just to get slammed by an invisible wall.
