Chapter 1 - Coolest. Watch. Ever! Pt.1

"A certain truth was beaten into me when I was four, most people only care about what quirk you have before caring about the person you are."

"It began in a city in China when a bioluminescent baby made the news, and more "Impossible" individuals appeared. The internet made hundreds of theories and some of them were fucking stupid."

"When enough time had passed the "Impossible" became normal, and manga became real. Now, most of the world's population has a quirk of some sort. The entire world went to shit as crime rates exploded and the government had to revamp the law, that was when certain people took it into their own hands to stop crimes like Hero's. Protecting people from criminals and crime wars. And after some time being a superhero became a government-funded career."

"My name is Katsuki Bakugo and this is how my childhood friend and I became the greatest heroes in the universe, and that's no exaggeration."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bakugo was in a bad mood, his teacher had to mention that he was planning on going to UA because of that everyone laughed at him because he didn't have a quirk, the only good thing that happened at school was his friends' reassurance, said friend, Izuku Midoriya, a plain-looking green haired boy with emerald eyes and freckles walked behind him with a look of worry, Bakugo glanced at his companion and frowned "I know what your going to say Ryu, that I shouldn't have ran off like that but those bastards know how important it is for me to at least try and get into UA." The greenette looked down at the ground in sadness "well I believe you can do well Kacchan, maybe we can prepare for the exams together.".

Before the conversation could go any further the distinct smell of burnt trash and ozone hit both of the boy's noses they looked down the alleyway and saw smoke rising from behind a dumpster "Is something burning?" Izuku wondered before noticing Bakugo walking over to it and following closely behind.

Sure enough, a former pile of trash bags sat there smoking and a small metal sphere sat there, it crashed there very recently but something felt off about it "M-m-maybe it's a s-satellite or the core of a m-meteor." Izuku trembled a little as the sphere felt off to him, the sphere suddenly split open and emit a green glow making the pair jump a little, inside the sphere seemed to be the source of the now dimming green glow, a white watch with green accents and a black face that had two green lines that formed the outline of an hourglass symbol, an intrigued Bakugo knelt down as he look at the device "How the fuck did a watch like this get here?" He went to reach for it but as soon as his hand entered the confines of the metal sphere the watch launched and attached itself to Bakugo's wrist "Kacchan!", the two jumped back with a look of shock "Shit, Get off! Get it off!" Bakugo tried to pull the thing of of his wrist but it wouldn't even budge even when Izuku tried to help and rip it off and after a few minutes they gave up since it wouldn't budge.

The two stared at the watch, Izuku seemingly more curious then his blonde friend "Who do you think made it, I've never seen a watch like it." Bakugo glanced at his green eyed friend before looking back at the watch "stupid thing doesn't even tell time, hell it's probably some prototype smartwatch that broke." Bakugo tapped the face of the watch with two fingers and suddenly a green ring appeared above the watch, he quickly retracted his fingers and just as quickly as it appeared the ring disappeared "Or…not." Izuku put two fingers on the watches face and the ring appeared again.

the ring seemed to mostly be opaque but displaying only a single face, Izuku looked at the device with an analytical look as he dragged his fingers across the watches face with the ring cycling through different faces as he dragged them, Bakugo was impressed at how responsive the hologram was and how clean it appeared, most other holograms had either some fuzziness or had videos playing at 480p.

the two were a little surprised that when Izuku dragged his fingers up the ring disappeared and the watches face slid upward to reveal a green button underneath, the two of them looked at each other and Bakugo smirked "Two thousand yen says it does nothing." He turned around and pressed the button, in a flash of green light that blinded Izuku causing him to cover his eyes.

When he uncovered his eyes he squinted, as his vision slowly returned he heard Bakugo's voice but it sounded like it was coming from a radio [Guess you ow- Woah, what the hell is with my voice?] where Bakugo once was now stood a six foot tall inky black blob of a humanoid with green circuit-like lines all over their body with a single circle that seemed represent an eye, on the beings chest seemed to be a sort of device with a green hourglass symbol.

[Why are you looking at me like that, is there something on my face?] Izuku shook his head, 'it's probably the watch projecting a hologram of someone with a mutation quirk over Kacchan, yeah that's probably it.' He reasoned in his head "No no, it's just that I guess it's just that, um, have you seen yourself?" Bakugo seemed offended it was hard to tell since all Izuku could tell what his friend was feeling was a singular eye [why, know what I look like Ry-] he stopped when he saw his arm as he was raising it and his eye said it all, he didn't see what the watch had done.

[Holy shit what happened?] Bakugo flexed his hand, Izuku moved closer, inspecting the "Seems to be a sort of hologram?" He swung his arm like he was swatting a fly away expecting his hand to harmlessly pass through a part of the hologram the was extending off of his friend namely the head, what Izuku didn't expect was that instead of passing the it he actually struck the hologram.

The two were silent, if Bakugo had a mouth it would be wide open but Izuku stood frozen with a horrified expression as he looked at his hand though it wasn't because he just casually slapped his best friend across the face, Ok that's part of the reason why, but it's because he slapped his friends face when his hand was meant to pass though the…the….hologram.

"OhmygodmohmygodI'msosorryKacchanithoughtthatitwasahologrambutitsappearentlyitsactuallyyoubuthatsimpossible-" Izuku couldn't stop until Bakugo grabbed his friend by the shoulders and shook him a little [Calm the fuck down Ryu, your rambling again.] Izuku looked at his morphed friend in the eye, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath "Your right." the greenette looked around "First let's go somewhere else, someone's probably gonna find it suspicious that we're even in a alley."

It only took them about eight minutes to get to Dagobah beach mostly because it was the closest secluded spot they could think of, no one came to the beach because it was more trash then beach with hills of garbage, old vehicles, and rusted metal covering the sand of the beach for miles.

Bakugo looked down at the device embedded in his chest [All right, what the hell it this, and where did the watch go?] Izuku seemed to have already sit down and draw sketches in a notebook titled 'Hero Analysis for the Future #13' "I have no idea, the symbol on it is similar to the one on the watch so maybe their connected?" Bakugo look down at his hands and a thought pops into his head [Hey Ryu, do you think the watch just change my appearance, or did it do more then just that?] Izuku closed his notebook placing it on his lap "I mean it's obvious it's given you some kind of quirk, probably a mutation-type, but we don't know what you can do now."

When he looked up he caught the sight of his friend standing in front of a old and rusted washing machine, clenching his hand into a fist [Well I say we start on test as soon as possible, starting with a good ol' strength test.] Bakugo pulled his fist fist back and punched as hard as he could, though to both of the teen's surprise instead of his fist pounding against the machine it splatted against the surface covering the entire top of the washing machine in black and green, Izuku looked on shocked, was his friends body so weak that it liquified from the punch? [Huh, that's weird.] now that wasn't the reaction Izuku was expecting "Wait can you not feel pain or does that not hurt?!" Bakugo pulled his arm back and his hand reformed back to its previous state [It doesn't hurt, in fact it felt more like I was being pulled into the washing machine.] before they could speculate any further the device on Bakugo's chest began to flash red and beep and after three times Bakugo was engulfed in a red flash of light, blinding Izuku again.

Bakugo was back to his normal quirkless self, even though he noticed this he wasn't disappointed, in fact, there was a huge smile across his face and he looks at his wrist and just as he hoped the watch was still there "I can't believe it, a quirk, I finally gained a quirk." Tears threatened to leak from his eyes as he looked at his green haired friend.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back in the alley where the two teens found the watch stood a black-haired man with lazy tired eyes, he wore basic black clothes and boots as well as a grey scarf, the man knelt down as he examined the empty pod 'This is where the Mechamorph was spotted, god I'm too tired for this.' He reach into his pocket and pulled out a circular device with a green hourglass symbol "This is Eraserhead, I'm at the site where the Galvanic Mechamorph was spotted and I found a small containment pod, it's possible this is how it arrived." The device glowed as Eraserhead got a response "Affirmitive, keep up the search Eraserhead."
