Chapter 2: Saved by Deku
Tommy's heart was pounding in his chest as he stumbled back, away from the villains who had been attacking him just moments before. His mind was racing, trying to come up with a plan to escape, but he knew deep down that he was no match for these powerful criminals.
That's when he saw him.
A figure dressed in green and black appeared out of nowhere, leaping into action with a ferocity that left Tommy stunned. The figure was quick and agile, taking down the villains with ease and grace. Tommy watched in awe as the hero moved with precision and speed, his movements almost too fast for the eye to follow.
The hero was none other than Deku, the legendary hero who had saved countless lives over the years. Tommy had heard stories about him, but he had never imagined that he would see him in person.
As the last of the villains fell to the ground, defeated, Deku turned his attention to Tommy. "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice calm and reassuring.
Tommy could hardly speak, still in shock from the attack. But he managed to nod his head, grateful for the hero's timely intervention.
Deku led Tommy to a nearby alleyway, away from the chaos of the street. "You're lucky I was in the area," he said, his eyes scanning the area for any signs of danger. "Those guys were no joke."
Tommy felt a surge of gratitude towards the hero. "Thank you," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.
Deku smiled kindly. "It's all in a day's work. But you should be more careful out here. It's dangerous for someone like you."
Tommy frowned. "What do you mean, 'someone like me'?"
Deku hesitated, as if considering his words carefully. "I noticed your quirk," he

Deku hesitated, as if considering his words carefully. "I noticed your quirk," he said finally. "The time stop. That's a powerful ability, but it can also be dangerous if you don't know how to control it."
Tommy nodded, understanding what Deku was getting at. His quirk had always been something of a burden for him, something that he couldn't quite master. But hearing it from a hero like Deku made him realize just how much he still had to learn.
"Can you help me?" he asked, feeling a glimmer of hope for the first time in a long while.
Deku studied him for a moment, his eyes searching for any signs of deception. But he seemed to sense that Tommy was genuine in his request. "I can help you," he said finally. "But it won't be easy. You'll have to work hard, and you'll have to trust me."
Tommy felt a surge of determination. He was willing to do whatever it took to master his quirk and become a hero in his own right. And if Deku was willing to help him, then he knew he was in good hands.
