I mean...you CAN...but it will manifest as panic attacks in your 30s so...I don't recommend it.

Gang Orca NO! Gang Orca put baby DOWN! Bad Orca!

A petty hater? Yeah...go back to loving bugs man. It's a simpler life.

The parallels! They are very opposite characters, but they have both been sucked into hatred by their contact with Endeavor (one obviously more seriously than the other). They also both have the strength of character to become self-aware of their flaws and work to fix them.

RISE SHOTO, RISE, INASA, RIIISE! Make up for your dingus mistakes!

Sick. See kids, if you put your differences aside, you too can defeat an Orca with a spiraling fire tornado. That's the lesson of today's episode.

Deku is the one who really held down the fort here though. It might have been a total disaster without him. Imagine if Shoto and Inasa had actually hit that other guy with the fire before Deku rescued him? LAWSUIT!

“Kacchan! Kacchan!” You heard young Deku yell. “I wanna be the hero too Kacchan! I wanna be like All Might!!” 

“Shut up Deku you’ll never be as amazing as all might,” 

“Why do you have to be so mean?” Deku pouted.

“No one’s as cool as All Might dumb Deku,” Young Kacchan declared. 

“Aww I guess you’re right”

“ I’m always right,” the tiny blonde announced, proudly. 

"So then I wanna be a hero!” 

“No, I’ll be the hero and you be the sidekick,” 

“Aww.. Alright then,” 

“You be the princess,” He pointed at you with a childlike grin on his face. 

That’s how it always was. You’re the princess who needed saving and Kacchan would always save you. Somehow things changed when he got his quirk. 

~~ 

Pop! Pop! Little miniature explosions came out of his palms. This was the moment Kacchan got his quirk. Everyone awed how awesome it was. “Awesome!” One of your classmates cheered. 

“You’re so lucky!” Deku yelled out. 

“Yea,” Your classmates agreed. 

“Impressive, I betchu that’s gonna grow into an amazing quirk!” one of your teachers commented.

“Definitely,” Your other teacher added, “A flashy quirk for a future hero! It’s perfect,” 

‘Yea you’re right! I AM amazing! In fact I bet there’s NO one as Great as I am’

His thoughts were cut off when. 

A Giant arm appeared. The arm was as big as Kacchan. One thing about it? It was made entirely of water. 

“Oh it seems another quirk’s been manifested,” Your female teacher acknowledged. 

She and the other teacher looked around for the kid responsible for the water arm. You placed your arm down after cheering for Kacchan and the hand mirrored your movement. The hand dropped to the ground. 

“Ah- it’s you! Y/n that’s an impressive quirk!” She commented. 

“A hand that big especially in your age is quite incredible,” Your male teacher stated, “I can’t imagine how your quirk will progress in the future but I bet you’re mostly likely the next number 1 hero,” 

Kacchan stared at you. His brows were turning to a frown. His little explosions were getting louder. You stole the attention from him and you developed a more powerful quirk. You weren’t supposed to be strong. You were supposed to be the princess. The damsel in distress. This made Kacchan mad. He started bullying you ever since and it was you and Deku for the rest of your school life. That is... until highschool. 

~~ 

Bakugou gave you a swift kick on the gut. You were knocked back against the wall. You held your gut as Bakugou grabbed your collar. 

“Listen up 'princess’,” He yelled, “Don’t you DARE try to apply for UA. I’M Going to be the First And ONLY student from this crappy school to get into UA! So you better not Screw that up!” 

You only winced at his scary tone. You weren’t planning to get into UA. Even if you did it would be because of Izuku. You could feel yourself trembling. You couldn’t even look him in the eye anymore. 

“LOOK AT ME WHEN I’M TALKING TO YOU!!” He yelled, explosions coming from his hand. 

You drew back further and started trembling harder. You didn’t want to hurt Bakugou. He let your collar go and you fell back slowly. 

“Pathetic losers like you shouldn’t even be a hero,” He commented before leaving your line of sight. 

That’s the entire thing though. That was never your role. You were never wanted to be a hero. You were supposed to be the princess who Kacchan and Deku saved. You picked yourself up knowing that isn’t your role anymore. You obeyed Bakugou and didn’t apply for UA. You instead went for Shiketsu HighSchool. 

Walking home you encountered a commotion. You usually would walk past it and let the heroes take care of it but there’s when you heard a familiar voice. “KACCHAN!” It was Deku. Damn it Midoriya. You didn’t want to lose one of your friends now. Your quirk was water manipulation and the villain was mostly made out of water so quickly took control of the sludge monster and separated it from Bakugo while grabbing Deku to keep him in a safe distance with an ice chain. You controlled the sludge villain to be as small as possible and locked him in an ice dome. You quickly walked away sparing a quick glance at Deku to make sure he’s alright. 

~ 

You got accepted to Shiketsu Highschool. You kept it a secret from your old friends. Until the day of your hero license exam. You hopped out of your bus with Inasa. An enthusiastic boy who’s loud but he meant well. He was your best friend. 

“The usual you guys” A red boy announced. 

Inasa sneaked up behind them.

“On my mark,” The red boy continued. 

Inasa walked closer towards them.

“Go plus-” 

“ULTRA!” Inasa yelled. 

You stood next to Camie and watched him with a smile. 

That caught the attention of half the UA students there. 

“You know it’s pretty rude to barge into other peoples huddles like that Inasa,” Seiji Shishikura, the second year boy, pointed out calmly. 

“What? Pardon me,” Inasa raised his head, “I AM” His arms tucked to his side as he continued, “SO” He bowed his head till it hit the ground “VERY EXTREMELY SORRY!!!” 

You giggled. That caught the attention of both Izuku and Bakugou. They haven’t seen you smile for a while actually. Especially Bakugou. Since he always tormented you before. You looked like you were glowing. 

“Y/n!” Deku called out. He ran towards you. 

“Oh Deku!” You responded. You were bombarded with questions from the green nerd. 

“Hahaha.. Calm down I have several questions for you too. We can have a chat after the exam,” You cheerfully suggested. 

“OH Y/N you know this guy?” Inasa asked in his usual loud enthusiastic voice. 

“Yea he’s my middle school friend! Izuku meet Inasa,” You said. 

Unbeknownst to you there was a blonde looking at you. He watched as you kept... glowing as you smiled. You never glowed during middle school so this view was definitely new to him. He... liked it. 

You waved at Izuku as you, Inasa and your other schoolmates walked into the exam location. Your smile had faded fast, your eyes losing its glow.

"Vengeance is clouding your vision," Seiji quietly mentioned. 

You took a glance at him, eyes dark, before ignoring his words. 

The exam began and you watched as Bakugou left his classmates with some others following him. You conjured up an ice platform that floats you up into the sky. You followed them and led you to your schoolmate. What a coincidence. You were floating so you got there before they could. 

"HEYA SEIJI" You called out. Your smile plastered on your face.

"Y/n why are you here?" He asked, looking up and shifting his body to face you. You were still floating with your ice platform. You were sitting in a crossed leg position.

"Thought you might need some help," you looked to your side. 

He followed your gaze. Bakugou and 2 if his other classmates were running towards you. You have a mischievous smirk and you charged towards them. 

"I'LL HANDLE THE BLONDE YOU CAN HAVE THE REST," You yelled.

You heard Seiji yelling at you but you couldn't hear him nor care. You charged towards Bakugou. Since your quirk has less limits you were faster so you captured him with ice chains that covered his torso and hands sending him flying backwards. Kirishima and Denki were going to attempt to save him when Seiji called out to them. Since you were faster you took off his gauntlets and controlled his sweat too. This happened so fast that he didn't have time to react. The ice restraining his hands slowed down the sweat he was producing too. 

"I thought I felt someone following us," Bakugou growled.

You chuckled. You unfroze the positions of his targets and hit 2 of them. 

"BASTARD!! I'LL KILL YOU WHERE YOU STAND!!"

"You're all bark but no bite when it comes to me huh?" you questioned with a pout. You thought he changed but you were wrong. You saw Bakugou aggressively squirming around trying to free himself. You tightened the ice

"You know… thanks to Deku I know how your quirk works. So stop squirming, it's useless," 

Bakugou was grunting angrily before he finally stopped."Shiketsu huh? You didn't go to UA so you went to Shiketsu" He growled.

He took a moment before continuing, "WHY? YOU DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO BECOME A HERO!" 

Your ice tightened. Bakugou was smart. He knew he was basically quirkless without his sweat or gauntlets. Hell he couldn't even reach his grenades or break free. So he had to resort to negotiating. 

"That's true. My role was never the hero Kacchan," you said his name in a mocking tone. "That was yours... But I guess you can't be a hero without passing the exam," 

You paused. He was pissing you off so you used his sweat to explode him in the face. Something he did to you a lot in middle school.

"You never deserved the title anyways,"

You could feel him struggle in the ice. The audacity to ask why? Made you even more mad. You tightened the ice a lot.

"DAMN YOU Y/N!!!!!"

Boom!

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH" He says not in pain but in anger.

You stared, your eyes, dark.

Kaboom!

cough! "Is this what you're gonna do? Hold me here till the exams over?"

"Yea. I'll make sure to drop you in the last minute and keep all your explosions useless and watch as you fail and I pass. Maybe you'll be taken out in the minute? Maybe you'll manage to dodge but you'll never get any targets. You'll watch as I become the hero I never wanted to be"

"THEN WHY?!" He yelled, "WHY'D YOU BE A HERO WHEN YOU DIDN'T WANT TO IN THE FIRST PLACE?! WHY GO TO SHIKETSU?! WHY TAKE THIS DAMN EXAM?!" 

"SO I CAN SEE THE LOOK IN YOUR EYES WHEN YOU REALIZE THAT I'M THE NUMBER ONE HERO!" Your words had venom in them. Years and years of torment building up to this moment. You weren't as righteous as Deku. Infact you had half a mind to drop him right there, making sure he can't use his quirk to save himself but such violent acts would tain your school's reputation. Inasa would suffer. So you didn't.

Bakugou scoffed. He looked down. "I'm not an idiot! I knew if you were in the picture I'd never be number one.. I knew you were stronger than me. DAMN IT!"

Kaboom!

That blow didn't effect him much so he continued, "I WAS WEAK I MADE MYSELF STRONGER BUT YOU ALWAYS OUTSHINED ME! NO MATTER WHAT I DID YOU WERE ALWAYS BETTER! COOLER! SO I let the anger take hold of me. I CURSED YOU I TORMENTED YOU I MADE YOU SUFFER WHEN I WAS REALLY SUPPOSED TO BE Saving you! The princess. Who I was supposed to be saving," 

You flinched at the nickname. Looking back at it now he's never called you anything else except your name or that nickname. But it's been so long since you've heard it, it surprised you.

"I'm sorry," He mentioned.

"Better have enough firepower to fix your landing," you said before not dropping him but throwing him in a random direction. 

This. This. Caught you by surprise. The Katsuki Bakugou just Apologized. To you nonetheless. Sure you had to beat it out of him but this was still surprising. You sighed.

After this he started trying to atone for his past actions like bowing an apology, taking you out for your old favorite drink and trying to be your friend. 

Extra: Shy version. (above was vengeful version) 

“What? Pardon me,” Inasa raised his head, “I AM” His arms tucked to his side as he continued, “SO” He bowed his head till it hit the ground “VERY EXTREMELY SORRY!!!” 

You hid behind Camie jittering in place. Inasa was usually the person you’d hide behind from. He was tall and he made you feel safe even with his loud behavior. Deku caught a glimpse of you and waved at you. You waved back shyly. 

“Let’s go” Seiji directed. You followed. 

Inasa in an attempt to cool your nerves gave you a challenge to who’s going to pass first. It worked. During the test you took out 12 people with your water powers. You didn’t really want to take too much people out because you didn’t want them to be mad at you. You just attacked some people with a tidal wave which managed to take their balls and at the same time hit their targets. Once you got 3 you tried to stop the wave but before you could you accidently got another 9.
