#bonus: oboro is there too and aizawa breaks down in tears the first time izuku transmits a message on his behalf

[soulless-bex]

that one is SO specific, but just, my hero academia au where, one, afo is izuku’s dad, and two, izuku has a quirk, but not all for one. no, izuku here can see ghosts, and isn’t it just his luck that his dad just so happens to be haunted by the shit ton of people he killed over the years?

specifically, afo is haunted by the past ofa users, and once they realize that the child can see/hear/talk to them, they just keep on trying to get him to turn his dad in, or at least, to leave. but izuku’s also really attached to his dad (duh) and keeps denying the ghosts’ request on the basis that afo “changed”

BNHA Jumanji AU

So, for Halloween I wanted to write a Jumanji AU for BNHA, but was too busy with my other stuff and I don’t think I’ll be able to get to it, so here’s a summary for it below. Please share your thoughts and idea on it!

Content Warning!: Mentions of death and falsely being committed

The story starts with Hizashi, Shouta, and Oboro (is his family name Oboro or Shriakumo btw?) on their way home from school. Hizashi is nervous because come Monday he’s going to testify against a dangerous criminal. The other two are worried for their friend as well and decide that Hizashi should spend the night with one of them.

On the way Oboro hears drums at a construction site. There they dig out a trunk filled with ash—and a board game called “Jumanji.” Hizashi gets a super bad feeling while Shouta just finds it odd. Oboro on the other hands finds it exciting as hell. They take it with them and go to Shouta’s place.

The house is empty as Shouta’s parents are always working, or out of town. Oboro wants to play the game as he thinks it’s interesting. He also believes that it’ll take Hizashi’s mind off of things. Oboro chooses the monkey, Shouta the panther, and Hizashi chooses a bird. Oboro rolls first and a mysterious set of words appear on the green glass. Hizashi gets an EXTREMELY bad feeling, but rolls anyway. Next is Shouta who gets the unfortunate, “You will reside in Jumanji till someone rolls a 5 or 8” fate. To the horror of everyone Shouta is sucked into the game. Before the other two can do anything though a lion appears. Unfortunately Oboro accidentally summoned a hunter who shoots him dead right in front of the blond. Hizashi tries to ask what’s happening, but the hunter starts to vanish, having fullfilled his role. Before he disappears he tells Hizashi that he has other things to worry about as mosquitoes the size of birds attack. Hizashi is chased into the streets by them before he is stung.

Years pass and Izuku moves into Shouta’s old house with his mom. He accidentally gets on the bad side of a bully and gets beaten up a little, but makes a new friend named Ochaco. In a moment of bravery he invites the girl to his house where they hear the drums. They go to the attic where they find Jumanji and decide to play as there’s nothing else to do. Izuku chooses a crocodile while Ochaco chooses a rhino. They try to remove the panther and the bird, but can’t. Their pieces become stuck too.

They start to play and quickly realize the game is cursed as Izuku’s turn summons monkeys while Ochaco summons bats. Ochaco wants to stop, but the instructions say that the things won’t go away until the game is finished. Izuku rolls an 8 and summons a giant lion. Before it can eat the kids though a savage looking man scares it away. He asks who rolled a 5 or an 8 and then thanks Izuku, full of relief.

They talk about things and the man reveals that he’s Shouta Aizawa, the boy who was supposedly killed with with his friend Oboro. Shouta is shocked and heart broken to hear that Oboro is dead.

He asks about Hizashi and after some research discovers the sad truth; it turns out that after Hizashi was admitted to a hospital for a mysterious sting from a new breed of bugs. After which he tried to explain what happened, but no one believed him. They thought he was in shock from seeing two of his best friends murdered, one who’s body was missing. The crime boss Hizashi was going to testify against uses this as an opportunity to convince everyone that Hizashi was dangerously insane. He then uses his influence to have Hizashi locked away.

Shouta is appalled by this and immediately goes to rescue Hizashi. Ochaco and Izuku tag along. Along the way they see the damage the monkeys, the lion and bats are causing all over town. As an added bonus, thanks to the game becoming active the bugs Hizashi released in the past are starting to emerge.

They meet Nemuri who is shocked to say the least to see Shouta. Despite dealing with other emotions he is happy to see her. He then asks where Hizashi is and she tells him that he’s at the Asylum in the center of town, but no one’s allowed to visit. After Hizashi’s grandfather died the crime lord took custody of Hizashi and keeps him isolated. She’s been trying to get lawyers to help, but there’s been no luck yet.

While they talk Ochaco and Izuku try to continue the game, but nothing happens. Shouta comes over and after talking he realizes that it’s not her turn. It’s Hizashi’s and that the kids just continuing the game he and his friends started 15 years ago. Therefore if they want things to go back to normal they need Hizashi and both of them have to finish the game.

They find the asylum and after breaking in mission impossible style they find Hizashi locked up in a private room.

Hizashi is shocked to see Shouta and terrified that he really his losing his mind after all these years. Shouta convinces him that he’s real and everything that happened was also real. They have a tearful reunion with Hizashi apologizing for not being able to save him all these years. Shouta, who was hurt and angry all these years, immediately realizes it wasn’t his fault and tells him so. He still has complicated feeling though.

With the distraction of the monkeys driving a cop car into the building and wrecking havoc, the four escape.

They steal a car where they are attacked by the mosquitoes, making Hizashi hyper ventilate.  They manage to get away however and survive despite Shouta’s lack luster driving skills.

They go to Nemuri’s house who hides them from the police and gives Hizashi some clothes. Everything seems to be going okay until Izuku brings out the game. Hizashi of course panics at the sight of the thing and freaks out. Shouta has to calm him and tries to convince him they have to. Hizashi however wants nothing to do with the cursed game and throws down the dice in his hands without thinking. His old piece moves and he summons the giant spiders which vary from the size of cats to cars (yes, poor Hizashi is cursed).

They battle against the things and after getting to safety they decide they have to play. Hizashi reluctantly agrees. Shouta rolls and summons the hunter. Thanks to his years in the jungle he manages to escape the hunter easily enough. Ochaco takes her turn and summons a stampede. They almost lose the game thanks to a bird, but get it back.

Along the way they meet Yagi, an old cop who is forced to arrest Shouta for “kidnapping” Hizashi (who’s hiding at the time). Izuku tries to cheat and get turned into a monkey boy for his trouble.

The remaining three try to figure out how to save Shouta when the hunter steals the game as bait for Shouta.

Meanwhile, Shouta appeals to Yagi’s good nature as he was the cop who was supposed to protect Hizashi 15 years ago. Shouta then uses a distraction from the giant lion to escape. Hizashi and the others manage to get the game from the hunter with Ochaco pushing the paint aisle on him while Hizashi grabs the game.

They meet up with Shouta and go to an abandon part of town to finish the game. Hizashi rolls the dice and summons a lagoon filled with crocodiles.

Other things happen as they each take their turns and more and more dangers appear until it’s the final show down between Shouta and the hunter. This time though Hizashi saves Shouta by taking the bullet and Shouta ends the game by reaching the end and crying out, “Jumanji!”

Time rewinds itself to the past. Shouta and Hizashi are 15 again and Oboro’s alive. They both embrace the confused cloud boy and take the game away.

As soon as they can Hizashi and Shouta dump Jumanji into the ocean before confessing that they love each other.
