Excessive Impulsive Disorder - Bumblebee_the_Scout - 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia (2024)

Chapter 1: Origin

Chapter Text

"so as third-year students it's time to start thinking seriously about your futures and what you want to do with your lives! I could pass out some career aptitude tests, but why bother!" our teacher spoke, holding some papers before throwing them in the air as students begin to use the quirks at random.

"I know you all want to go to the hero track!"

the student began cheering as they continue to display their quirks

"yes, yes, you have some impressive quirks but no power usage is allowed in school. get ahold of yourself"

"hey teach, don't lump me in with this bunch of losers. I’m the real deal, but these guys would be lucky to end up as sidekicks to some busted d-lister, ha” Bakugo, the hothead spiky hair blonde decided to burden us with his sh*t opinions

The rest of the class erupted into a rage, everyone turning to him
“You think you're better than us, Katsuki?!”

“Let’s go! I’ll take you all on!!”

“Huh, you’ve got impressive test results. Maybe you will get into UA high.” the teacher claimed

The began to fill with a murmur as UA is mentioned

“He’s gonna try for the national school?”

“That school has a .2% acceptance rate”

“It’s impossible to get into”

“That’s exactly why it’s the only place worthy of me,” bakugo said as he jumped onto his desk

“I aced all the mock tests, I'm the only one at this school who stands a chance at getting in. I’ll end up more popular than All Might himself! And be the richest hero of all time! People all across the world would know who I am! And it all starts with UA High!”
I throw a ball of paper directly at his head stopping his ego-fueled rant

“Get off your high horse bakugo,”

Everyone turned to me, bakugo appeared pissed

“If you honestly think you can make it into UA with egotistical, self-centric views then you won’t fare any better than the rest of these losers. You might have a strong quirk, but your personality is nothing like All Mights. You’d never be popular if you keep acting like everyone is below you”

The class looked at me dumbfounded

The teacher speaks up “oh yeah, Lucas don’t you and Midoriya also want to go to UA High”

The class erupts into laughter completely ignoring me in favor of making fun of Midoriya

“Midoriya? You’re kidding, right? There’s no way you’re gonna make it into the hero course without a quirk!”

Midoriya stood up really nervous “W-well actually they got rid of that rule! I could be the first one!”

Bakugo got off his desk and sent an explosion into Izuku’s desk breaking it and causing izuku to fall to the ground
“Listen up deku! You’re even worse than the rest of these damn rejects! You quirkless Wannabe! Do you really think they’d let someone like you in when they could have me?”

“No, wait! You’ve got it all wrong!” Midoriya tried to back away before he is stopped by the wall
“I’m not trying to compete against you! You gotta believe me! It’s just that I've wanted to be a hero since I was little I may not have a quirk, but I can still try my hardest can’t I?”

“You’d never be able to hang with the best of the best! You’d die in the exams! Defenseless Izuku! This school is already crappy! Do you really want to embarrass it more by failing it so hard!? ”

After class ends the majority of the students left, but Bakugo, the two idiots that follow him, and Izuku were all there with me

“Man that fight from this morning is all over the news, better right some notes down before I forget anything”

“Oh you saw that as well-” I tried to speak but I'm interrupted as Bakugo grabbed Izuku’s notebook

“I don’t know what you think you’re doing deku, but we’re not done!” Bakugo said taunting izuku with the book

“Watcha go there? The nerd's diary?”

“Huh? Dont tell me you’re taking notes on how to be a hero?”

“That’s so pathetic!” “he’s delusional”

The two begin to laugh while bakugo continues to hold Izuku's notebook above him.

“Hah, real funny guys just give it back” izuku pleads nervously

Bakugo slams the notebook in his hands and burnt it with his quirk

“That’s so mean” izuku speaked

Bakugo tries to toss it out the window before I caught it and handed it back to Izuku

“Hmh, most first-string heroes show potential early own, people look at them and just know they’re destined for greatness. When I'm the only student from this garbage junior high to get into UA people will start to talk about me like that. They’ll realize I'm legit. The next big thing. That’s not ego talking I just know I’m good”

“That’s the very definition of ego,” I said annoyed

“Here’s a little advice nerd. Don’t even think of applying, or else” bakugo said as he placed a hand on Midoriya’s shoulders, smoke rising as bakugo uses his quirk

Izuku is frozen in fear as the group leaves

“ that’s just sad, I thought you would atleast have some fight in you”

“He finally gets it, he’ll never be a hero. Better to find out now instead of later I guess”

The two bullies taunted him as they left the class, I was mad but hesitant to say or do anything or else I risk getting arrested

Bakugo stopped at the door and turned his head towards Izuku
“ you know if you really wanna be a hero that badly, there might be another way. Just pray for a quirk in your next life, and take a swan dive off the roof of the building!”

Izuku became furious, turned toward bakugo with saddened rage on his face, but his drive to act was stopped by bakugo using his quirk while asking if something was wrong

I was frozen in place by pure rage. I don’t even have the words to scold Bakugo for his reckless bulling. How could he say something like that?. I knew he was an ass but I didn’t think he’d go that far. I looked at Izuku, tears clearly building up.

“Izuku are you-” I was cut off as Izuku sobbed out “stupid jerk, how could he say something like that?”

“Don’t listen to them, look we could go to your house and play games to get your mind off this. You know you can be a hero no matter what he says” I tried to comfort him but he started to walk out of the class

“Just go home Lucas I wanna be alone for a while”

“Ok, I’ll see you tomorrow right?”

Izuku was silent

I repeated, “I WILL see you tomorrow, right?”

“Yeah,” Izuku said just as he left the room

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! You can’t just go around telling people to kill themselves! What would he have done if I had actually done it? It doesn’t matter! No matter what anyone else thinks, I have to believe in myself! I’ll keep smiling just like him! I begin laughing, mimicking All Might as I walk through the tunnel on my normal way home. I hear a sound as something comes up from the manhole cover. I turn around to see a massive green sludge monster rise from the hole.

“You make a perfect skin suit for me to hide in, kid!” the villain's voice was gravely like he was speaking through the sludge. His creeper smile and large eye petrified me before he lunged at me, trying to force his way down my throat. I tried to fight but couldn’t.

“Don’t worry I’m just trying to take over your body it would be easier if you didn’t fight back. It will only hurt for a minute! You’ll feel better soon

I can’t breathe, I try to grab the sludge near my face but my fingers just go through it. My vision is getting darker, my head is feeling lighter. No this can’t be it! I can't die now!

“That’s not gonna work my body is fluid. Thanks for the help, you’re a real hero to me, kid! I didn’t know he was in the city I have to get out of here fast before he tracks me down”

My body is getting weaker, who is he? Who is he running from? Need to stay awake, this can’t be the end. The manhole cover launches up, and the villain turns to see who it is

“HAVE NO FEAR YOU ARE SAFE! NOW THAT I AM HERE, THAT IS!”

The monster tries to lash out at All Might but he sends a massive air punch that separates me from the villain. I barely have the energy to process this let alone stay awake. Everything goes black.

“Hey! Wake Up! Hey!”
I hear All Might say this as I wake up, my vision still a little blurry

“I thought I lost you there!”

My vision clears up and I see All Might Starring at me. I freak out and crawl back a bit in surprise

“Well looks like your moving around fine now! sorry about that back there! I didn’t mean to get you caught up in my justice-ing! Usually, I pay more attention to keeping bystanders safe! But it turns out this city's sewer system is pretty difficult to navigate! HAHAHA! Anyway, you were a big help thank you! I have captured the evil-doer!”

All Might holds up two massive soda bottles. I see what looks like the villain stuffed inside. How did he do that? He’s the most amazing hero in the entire world. I have so many questions!
“Holy crap! I gotta get an autograph! I got a pen around here somewhere! Please sign my notebook!” I looked around and found it in the corner, I opened it and saw “AHH He already did!”

“Thank you! thank you! Thank you so much!”

“Welp, I gotta get this guy to the police so they can take care of him. Stay out of trouble! See you around!”

“Wait, you’re leaving? Already?” he can’t go yet, I have so many questions

“Heroes are constantly fighting time as well as villains! Now stand back I'm taking off!”

All Might took off but I quickly grabbed onto him in a desperate need for answers

“Huh? Hey! I love my fan but this is too much! Let go!”

“If I let go now ill die!!!”

“Huh, that’s a good point”

“I just have a lot of things I want to ask you personally! You are my all-time favorite hero! Please!”

“Ok ok, just keep your eye and mouth shut!”

All Might lands us on a building and I take a minute to gather myself. “My whole life just flashed before my eyes”

“Not a very smart move! Bang on the door for a while someone will let you in. NOW! I have to go! See you on the flip side!”

“Wait not yet! One second!” reach out desperately to All Might pleading for him to stay

“No! I dont have any time!”

“I have to know”
Sometimes I do feel like a failure, but no matter what I won’t give up.
“Is it possible to become a hero even if I dont have a quirk?! I’m a normal kid, without any powers. Could I ever hope to be someone like you?” I close my eye hoping for an answer
I waited what felt like forever before I heard anything.
I barely hear All Might say under his breath “without a quirk” I look at the ground before I continue

“People think I don’t have a chance. That not having any powers makes me some kind of weakling. My classmates like to make fun of me. But you know what? That just makes me wanna prove them wrong. Ever since I was a kid I thought saving people was the coolest thing you can do. I want people to see my fearless smile a feel safe. And be the kind of hero everyone in the world looks up to. Just like you!” I look to try and see All Might's response but instead, I see a smaller skeletal-looking man standing where he was.

“Huh? I- who wait… WHAT HAPPENED?? You deflated! Huh, where did All Might go? You’re not him! You’re a fake! An imposter!”

The skeletal figure looked at me saddened “I assure you that I am All Might”

“Impossible!”

“You know how guys at the pool are always sucking in and flexing and trying to look buff? I’m like that”

“This can’t be real! No, I'm dreaming. All Might’s a giant of a man who saves everyone with a fearless smile” how could this be All might? He looks saddened
The man sighed
“ there’s plenty of fear behind that smile. I'm counting on you to keep your mouth shut, don’t go talk about this online or telling your friends”
The man sits down and lifts up his shirt to reveal and massive wound on his side
“Pretty gross right? I got this in a big fight five years back. My respiratory system was basically destroyed. I lost my whole stomach. Al the surgeries have pretty much worn me out. And it can’t be fixed. right now I can only do hero work for about 3 hours a day. The rest of the time this is what I look like”

“No way! Five years ago? So does that mean it was the fight with toxic chainsaw?” I’m stunned, not only do I meet All Might but I learn he is vulnerable

“Wow, you know your stuff. But no. the punk may have landed some hit but he couldn’t bring me down. Most of the world has never heard of this fight, I did everything I could to keep it under wraps. I’m supposed to be the guy who’s always smiling, right? I'm the symbol of peace. People around the world have to think I'm never afraid. But honestly, I smile to hide the fear inside. It’s just a brave face I put on when the pressure is high. This job isn't easy. Proheros are always having to risk their lives. Some villains just can't be beaten without powers. ”

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. no All Might as well.

“So no I honestly don’t think you can be a hero with a quirk”

“I-i see”

“If you want to”

I started to tune out All Might, my vision blurred and my ears ringed. I finally meet All Might and he tells me to give up. An explosion breaks me out of my traces. All Might appears to have left but that doesn’t matter. A large cloud of smoke catches my eye. “Huh! A villain! I wonder which hero will show!?” I run towards the door wanting to see the attack but All Might word replay in my mind. “Some villains just can’t be beaten without powers”. I’ll just go home

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even All Might said it, a hero needs a quirk. Deep down you knew this, all along. You’ve just been avoiding reality. That’s why you’ve tried so heavily to prove yourself wrong.
Boom
Huh? Another explosion, that’s strange, is the fight from earlier still going on? Why am I here? Did I subconsciously walk this way to check it out? I shouldn’t even stop, all my notes are useless. wait is that… no way that the sludge villains that attacked me! That can't be right All Might captured him, but the bottle, if he dropped it that means it’s my fault.

“Why aren’t the heroes doing anything?”

“It looks like they met their match, plus the villain captured a kid. Things aren’t looking good for him”

Huh? He caught someone? I wonder how long they’ve been in there. How can they survive being suffocated like that? I thought I'd die after only a few seconds of struggling. Oh man

“Wait I’m confused isn’t the villain All Might was chancing Earlier today”

“What? All Might? No way he lost where is he?”

“Well can someone call him or something?”

“Seriously! Why hasn't he shown up to help the heroes?

I’m the one to blame, he wasted his energy on me. He can’t power up yet, and none of these heroes have the quirks to stop this monster. It’s my fault, I'm sorry, so sorry. Help will show up and save the day I’m sure. Someone, a real hero will come soon. Wait? Why does the person look familiar? The hostage is struggling, I see them break free. Wait, Kacchan?! Why am I moving? It’s like my body is running on its own impulse. I break through the barrier and start dashing towards the villain.

“NO, YOU IDIOT STOP YOU’RE GONNA GET YOURSELF KILLED!” one of the heroes shout

What am I doing? Why am I running? Why can’t I stop?

“Not this brat again!”

“Deku?”

The sludge monster sends an attack at me but I jump over it. I though my bag at it as a distraction and watch and my stuff hits it in the eye and he reacts. Freeing Kacchan from the sludge covering his face. That’s it, his eyes are vulnerable. On impulse, I grab a pipe I see on the ground and I use a raised section of the ground to jump onto the Villian Stabbing him in the eye. He throws me off of him and kacchan is freed a little more.

I grab the nearest piece of rubble and throw it at his other eye. Kacchan is freed a little more, and as the villain is distracted by the pain I grab onto kacchan trying to pull him out
.
“What the hell? Why are you here?”

“I don’t my body, it just started moving!”

I don’t know why I did what I did. Maybe it was the look on his face, maybe it was impulse.

I continued to try and pull Kacchan out of the monster but it regain composure after a little bit and pushed me back. I blacked out and when I came to All Might Had defeated the villain and Kacchan was ok. When I woke up the heroes on the scene were praising kacchan for being brave and while they were scolding me for being stupid and running in there. Dont they understand I helped? None of them tried to save Kacchan they were too afraid. But I tried to help, I went in there without a quirk and tried to help. Do they not see that? Or is there something I’m not seeing? Did I cause more trouble than I solved?

After the incident was cleared up and more scolding from the heroes I began to walk home. I wanted to apologize to All Might but he was swarmed by interviewers

“DEKU!”

Huh? Kacchan?

“ Listen I would never ask for a weakling like you to help me. Don’t think you could look down on me! Huh?! Got that?! I was fine by myself! You’re just a quirkless failure who won't even cut it as a rent-a-cop! You didn’t help me! You did nothing. Dont forget it”

“You’re right”

I turned to go home but kacchan called out in confusion

“What?”

I ignored him and kept walking. I guess he gave up because I didn’t hear anything else from him.

My mom greeted me when I entered our Apartment.
“ Izuku, sweetie. How was school? There’s food on the table when you’re ready to eat”

“Hey, mom. It was alright. I’m a little tired today so I think I’ll take some to my room then go to bed”

“That’s ok, sweetie. I need to go somewhere tomorrow morning so make sure to wake yourself up for school.”

“I will, good night mom”

“Good Night Izuku”

I grab a plate of food and head to my room. I look at the news to see the reports on the incident and none of them mentioned me. I guess I really didn't do anything….
I don’t eat and instead, pass out on my bed.

I wake up to the sound of banging on my door. I look at the clock and I’m incredibly late for school. Maybe it’s Lucas coming here to yell at me for being late.

I walk to the door and look through the peephole. It's two police officers, why are they here?
I open the door a greet them “uh. H-hello Officers. Can I help you with something?”

“Are you Izuku Midoriya? Inko Midoriya’s Son?”
One of them says with a saddened look on his face.

“Um, Yeah?”

“We regret to inform you that Inko Midoriya was caught in the rampage of a villain this morning. She was rushed to the hospital but didn’t make it”

No. No. No. this can’t be real this has to be a dream.

“What.”

“Son, we are so sorry about your lost”

I shut the door on them and fall to the ground. This can’t be. This can’t be. This isn’t real, she isn’t dead.

“Kid please open the door!”

“Let him be, he needs time”

It sounds like they left. I need to talk to Lucas.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Where is he? I saw the sludge Villian attack and bakugo has been pissy all day. It’s not normal for him to completely miss a day. Wait is that him? Is he crying? This isn’t his normal cry either, he looks like his entire life has shattered

“Lucas!”

He looks upset, really upset

“Lucas you need to help me, please!”

“Izuku what happened? Why are you crying? Why weren’t you here”
I grab Izuku’s shoulder trying to keep him still but he’s shaking violently

“There was a villain attack, My Mom-” izuku sobs harder

“Izuku what happened to your Mom?”
“She was hurt in a villain attack. Officers told me she was rushed to a hospital but died on the way there. I alone now.”

Students walk past us giving us worried glances. I spot the two idiots that normally follow bakugo coming this way. Oh sh*t

“Well if it isn’t deku. What? You miss a day of school and come crying to your boyfriend?” the two laugh

“Yeah, your gonna give your Mom a heart attack if you fail this badly”
Thye laugh some more and I look to Izuku
He stopped crying and instead glared at the bully in a way that worried me

Izuku stands up a looks at the bullied who mentioned his mom.

“Oh? You didn’t like that? What are you gonna do? Fight me? You’re quirkless!”

Izuku walks closer to him and hits him square in the nose. Causing him to fall back as his nose bleeds. “What the f*ck!”

“Woah, he actually fought back,” the other bully said it in amazement as he laughs

“I didn’t know he had it in him”

Izuku decks him as well before walking off. I quickly joined him and we went to my house

I explained the situation to my parents and they let Izuku stay. In the morning I woke him up for school and we walked there together. I tried asking if he was ok, but he wouldn’t budge. I can’t imagine what he’s feeling.

We enter the class and see the two bullies Izuku punched. Both of them with bandages on their noses. They glance at him but quickly turn away. Izuku sits at his seat and I go to mine, keeping an eye on him.

Bakugo walks in and immediately heads to izuku

“First you act like you can help me from the stupid villain then you think you can skip School??!”

“Bakugo maybe we should leave him alone today!” one of the bullies said trying to convince him. But he already seemed set

“No, Deku missed a day and I wanna hear what his loser excuse is? Does Aunt Inko know you played hookie? Jeez Deku if you keep being this much of a failure you might give her a heart attack”
“Oh sh*t,” one of the bullies said out loud as it was clear Izuku wasn’t having it

“Don’t say her name”

“What? Does the loser think he can talk back to me and get away with it?”

Izuku stands up still looking down at his desk

“What are you gonna do? Punch me? Your weak quirkless arms would break upon impact!”

In a quick barely noticeable motion Izuku prepared for and then headbutted Bakugo right in the nose causing him to fall back hitting a chair a falling to the floor. What was there of the class gasped?

Izuku sat back down as class began to start. Bakugo sheepishly went to his seat completely confused as to what happened.

After school, I met up with Izuku to ask if we’d be walking together.

“Nah, I have some things I need to do here. I’ll meet you at your house later”

“Are you sure? You can also ways do them tomorrow”

“No, they need to be done now.”

“Ok, I'll see you later”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At home, I see my mom and she asks where Izuku is. I tell her he’s at school still doing some work.
The hours go by and he’s still not here. I wanted to remain hopeful, but he isn’t there when I go to bed.
I woke up and he still never showed up. I walk to school alone, I’m the last one to enter. Bakugo looks like he’s on the verge of tears. There’s a flower on Izuku’s desk.

After seeing me enter the teacher begins to speak

“Class, I regret to inform you that, Izuku Midoriya, Died”

No, no this isn't real. Did he do it?

The class erupted into murmurs asking how, when, where, why

“How?!” I yell out
“How did it happen? Where?” I cry out

“Yesterday after school, Midoriya made his way up to the roof. and Jumped off”

As soon as I hear those words I’m moving to Bakugo’s desk. I look at him, he looks down at his desk, he’s trembling. I lean down “something tells me you found him, didn’t you”

“I did”
His voice was filled with guilt. It was noticeably different than his usual tone.

“I figured as much, the universe would burden you with that visual. How do you feel?”

“Bad”

“Be more descriptive”

“Like a villain”

“You not a Villian. You are just a terrible person”

“Why aren’t you angrier? You should be chewing me out! You know what I said!”

“I don’t need to tell you all the things you are. Your own guilty will do it for me.”

Chapter 2: "Sir this is a Wendys"

Chapter Text

I jolt awake on a metal table. Where am I? What happened? My memories begin to flood my mind as I remember what happened. But I died why am I still alive? I’m alone and I have no clothes. I should probably get out of here before anyone comes back. Please tell me they keep your clothes nearby when they do an autopsy. Is that my bag? If I had scissors with me I can cut the sheets into a shirt, or maybe YES! My clothes! and they are covered in my blood, great. Maybe they haven't cleared out the apartment yet, it’s only been a few days. I should be able to get a clean outfit there.

I can’t see much through the window but it appears everything is still there, just have to break this latch on the window. Why Is this so hard? damn my weak nerd arms! Wait why is my hand glowing blue? Why am I falling through the wall? I stand up and touch the wall, it’s solid. My hand isn’t blue. That’s new.

Seems they have cut the power so they know we are dead. They just haven't gotten to cleaning. I won't be able to stay here so I’ll have to grab some stuff a go.

We had some duffle bags in storage so I took those out. I empty my school bag of all school-related things and began loading it with the important stuff. My laptop, and phone chargers for both. Headphones, my notebooks, protein bars for easy access to snacks. I put the first aid kit in there. If I'm gonna be on the street I need something to protect myself with. That’s it my bat! Now, where is it? It should be under my bed. Is that? It’s my old prototype hero mask! Can’t hurt to have that on me. If people recognize me, it could create a problem. Hopefully, people will just think it's some quirk.

I think I have it all. Now to set my alarm for early in the morning, I’ll have one final night's rest here then I’ll be out in the world.

It was a cold morning with a light fog, here in the park gathered around images of Izuku and inko Midoriya, The Lycans, Bakugos, Izukus Classmates and their families, the teachers, the principal, Mrs. Midoriyas co-workers, and some extended family.

“We gather here today to mourn the loss of two bright, Kind, caring, and lovable souls. Inko and Izuku Midoriya. Taken from us too soon, may their soul find peace in the hereafter”

What are these people doing here? I understand Mrs. Bakugo, she and Mrs. Midoriya were long-time friends, but why are these classmates and their families here? Why do they care? And the teachers? These fakes certainly didn’t care about the Midoriyas when Inko lost her job that one time and everyone made fun of Izuku saying sh*t like “How are you going to fund your pathetic dream now?” they certainly didn’t care the day we talked about heroes. Why start to care now? And the parents, what reason do they have to be here? They are the ones who told Mrs. Midoriya it would be best to give Izuku up for adoption. And when she refused to leave her son they shunned her for caring about a quirkless person.

I’m glad I put on this hoodie before I left. It seems the weather decided to change drastically overnight. I’m glad that I dont live in too much of a rural area. It should be easier to hide in an abandoned building. Maybe I could stay in the park for a while. With nothing needing me for anything I now have a lot of free time. I could use that to reflect, figure out my next move, and then press on from there.

Huh, that’s an oddly larger gathering of people, and in weather like this what could they be doing there? Some of them look familiar, are those, My Classmates? What are they doing here?
More and more people seem to show up. Lucas and his family are here? Kacchan and his parents just showed up. I recognize some of these people from mom's work, and old family gathering. I haven’t spoken to some of these people in years what are they doing here? Oh, that’s why they are here….

“We gather here today to mourn the loss of two bright, Kind, caring, and lovable souls. Inko and Izuku Midoriya. Taken from us too soon, may their soul find peace in the hereafter”

Those are some of the nice words anyone has ever said about me. Who knew it would take dying for someone other than Mom to actually care about me. Aunt Mitsuki looks devastated, from her point of view she lost her best friend, and then her son lost his best friend. Her eyes were redder than normal. She must have been crying beforehand. Uncle Masaru had an almost neutral expression on his face, it was clear he was upset, but he was more focused on being there for his wife. The truly shocking reaction was Kacchans, it was a little hard to tell after some repositioning so no one can see me I could tell he was upset, more than upset, he looked… regretful? Wait, is that All Might's normal form? Looks like he was passing by when he noticed the gathering. He’s in a different outfit than the last time, oversized sweatpants and an oversized hoodie. Does he always dress in clothing 10 times his size just so he doesn’t rip his clothes when he buffs up? He must have seen something he didn’t understand cuz he started to get closer. I could swear I just saw him mouth the word “no”. He was holding some bags that he dropped as he got closer to the group, and when he was sure no one was looking his way he began to buff up. What was that about? Even being this far away I could still hear his booming voice as he said

“May I ask the meaning of the gathering? What happened to Young Midoriya?”

How does he know my name? I don’t remember telling him when we met.
Instead of answering him people began to gawk at All Might being there.

“It’s All Might!”

“What is he doing here?”

“Again, what happened to Young Midoriya?”
He sounded so upset, the pastor who said the nice words from before was the only one to answer
“He tragically took his own life two days ago”

All Might stepped back, clearly taken aback by what had just been said to him. Wait, did he say, “took his own life,” they think I killed myself? Did he think that it could be his fault? That I “killed myself” because my idle told me to give up? Must hurt, I want to tell him I’m fine but I don’t entirely know who to trust

“May I say a few words?” What would All Might have to say about me?

“What would you have to say about him?” someone in the crowd said

“A few days ago I recused that Young Man from the Sludge Villian that Attack Young Bakugo. Before I left to continue the chase, Midoriya asked me if he could be a hero even if he was Quirkless. I told him that some villains just can’t be beaten without a quirk. And then when the Villian took Young Bakugo I saw Young Midoriya as he ran on Impulse, past the barrier, and used what he could against the Villian. There are stories about every hero, how they became great. Most have one thing in common, their bodies moved before they had a chance to think. Almost on their own, and on that day that is what happened to him. I wanted to speak with him after the villain was captured, but I could not find him. I regret never being able to say to him that I was wrong and that he could have, would have been a fine Hero. And it would’ve been my honor to train him. But now as I look at all of you, gathered here for this ceremony I hope it is clear to all, we let a person with great potential slip through our hands. I was too blind to see it, and I know you were too”

"How do you know we are blind as well?"

"The majority of you are his classmates, Correct? He told me how his classmates and those around him told him didn't believe in him. Some of you even made fun of him. Bullying is not cool, anyone can be a hero, you just need to put in the effort!"

All Might left soon after, looking upset. With the ceremony done, most of my classmates and school staff left. Lucas and his family stayed and so did the Bakugos. I could tell Lucas was staring at Kacchan the entire time. If only he knew what really happened. As the Bakugos left Kacchan only stared at the ground before he suddenly jerked to look in my direction. I didn’t have time to move I just sat there frozen. But he didn’t react like I wasn’t here? He just kept walking. Looking at my hands I see myself glowing in blue transparency. Was I invisible to him? Did I have a quirk? No that can’t be possible the doctor said I didn’t have one. But with the surviving death, falling through a wall, and now invisible, it is safe to say that maybe it was a misdiagnosis. I’ll need to learn to control it, it would become useful if I knew what it could do.

“Awww man sucks he died he looked ~cute~!” The girl whined looking at the gathering of people around the images of Izuku and Inko
“Quiet Cheshire, We don’t get chances to patrol mornings. This fog is our best chance to follow up those leads” someone said to the girl as they took her away from the tree she was hiding behind
“You’re no fun,” Cheshire said defeated
“Our job isn’t about fun, let’s go”
“Ok, Fine, let’s go, ~Bunny~,” Cheshire said mockingly and began to run away
“For the love of All Might I told you to stop calling me that!” the guy said chasing after her
“Whatever you say, ~Bunny~,” she said continuing to mock him
“My name is Silver-Rabbit!” He said Defeated

Walking through the shopping district hopefully, my day can get better. Maybe I’ll get lucky and find a good spot to camp out on, It’s best to stay off the streets. If I could get to a roof I won’t have to deal with randos. I would rather be in an area with fewer people, but it’s the middle of the day and there weren’t a lot of bottles of water to bring with me. Buying a few sealable bottles that I can fill up on the regular will be really helpful.
A ping on my phone told me someone was recording All Mights speech a posted the video to the internet “ALL MIGHT GIVES A SPEECH AT QUIRKLESS KIDS FUNERAL” Local news covered it not too, which isn’t surprising. What is also not a surprise, is the comments. Some from people in support, most from people against the quirkless. “How could he give false hope like that to those who are quirkless” “how can you say they can be heroes? They dont have powers, they’ll be too weak!” having a quirk now doesn’t change the fact that it still hurts.

After buying what I needed, I had to find a water fountain that I can use to fill up these bottles. I should make a map of all the locations most likely to have a fountain that I can use for free. Yeah, I’ll work on that.

This building looks like it would work, There’s a fire escape I can use to get up, so no need to go inside and risk worrying whoever is in there. The coast is clear, going up the ladders is a little difficult with all this stuff I'm carrying but I made it up fine. Huh, I wonder if I could make it to the next roof over? Get a running start, jump, pray, then Land! On my face. That hurt, maybe I should wear that prototype mask.
Ok, let's try this again, running start, jump, pray, stick the landing? Landing on my face again, at least it didn’t hurt. I should probably rest, I was never really an active person. I could barely jump from building to building before let alone with two duffle bags, and a backpack full of life essentials. I should probably set these down and rest. Drink some water while I’m at it. Placing the bags down and taking off my jacket and mask, I realize how calming and cool it is up here.

“Kid”

I open my eyes and look around. sh*t, he looks like a pro, and he’s seen me without my mask. Look away, hopefully, he doesn’t know me. Who am I kidding he wouldn’t know me.

“What are you doing up here?”

“It’s relaxing” hopefully that sends then off

“It’s dangerous, and it’s late you should go home”

“Can’t” I didn’t mean to say it, now I’ve just made problems worse

“What do you mean?”

“What part of all this, says I have one to go to,” I said as I gestured to my bags. No going back now.

“Hey, wait a minute you’re that ~cutie~ we saw the funeral in the park! Bunny he’s the kid from the park!” a new voice? I didn’t see them. sh*t, they know who I am! Did she just call me Cute?

“I f*cking see it now you dont have to say it twice! And Jesus Christ stop calling me that!”

I turn to face them, wait I recognize them. These aren't pros their those vigilantes Cheshire and Silver-Rabbit. Photos of them have never been taken, but from the underground forums I’ve been on that describe their appearance, it’s clear that these are them.
A short girl with blond hair, wear short jeans with a utility belt. She has black leggings with knife holsters strapped to her thighs. She’s wearing a red shirt with a red and black jacket that has cat ears. Her gloves have claws on them, and the mask that covers her mouth has the appearance of a huge smile, like the Cheshire Cat. She has nothing covering her eyes, and I can see they are a bright yellow. And the guy, taller than Kacchan, he has black jeans, a utility belt, and some boots. Grey shirt with a silvery jacket that has bunny ears that droop down. His goggles block the view of his eyes with this piercing orange glow. He also wears a scarf similar to that of the hero Eraserhead, the forums say he uses it in a similar way. He has bits of metal armor covering sections of his body. The mouth, chest, back, shoulders, shins, knees, forearm, hands, and thighs are all covered in plates of metal. Some of the forums theorize his quirk is to make and manipulate this metal as some underground pros have seen these pieces of metal melt off his body and form into tools for use.

“I apologize, I assume the woman in the photo next to yours was your mom. Without her, there wouldn’t be something truly home just yet for you.” Silver-Rabbit said, his voice so calm, and his words seem calculated. He thinks before he speaks, Cheshire doesn’t seem to be the same

“Don’t remind me” that was a little rude of me.

“Sorry, again. The ceremony was for both of you, but you are standing right in front of me. How is that?”

“One minute I was sitting on the roof, relaxing. The next I was waking up in a morgue. My entire life I thought I was quirkless. Turns out I just had to die to activate it”

“That sounds horrible! Bunny doesn’t that sound Horrible?” Cheshire says, sadness lingering in her voice

“Cheshire, I swear to god if you don’t stop calling me that I’ll-”

“Bind me up with your scarf? You know I’d enjoy it”
Silver-Rabbit fails to make a response, simply only bluescreening
Heh, He seems calculated but when it comes to anything Cheshire says it’s like his ability to think goes out the window.
When he finally reboots he goes back to me
“So I assume you haven’t told anyone that you are alive?”

“Contrary to how many people showed up to my funeral, I was only really cared for by my Mom and my friend Lucas. Mom’s dead, and if I tell lucas I’d have to explain to him that I didn’t kill myself, and I’d rather him not go to jail.”

“What actually happened?” Cheshire seemed to switch from her playful purposefully annoying persona that I’ve seen in the past 2 minutes to a completely different person. Radiating an aura similar to Lucas. She doesn’t even know me and I feel as if she would react the same as Lucas.

“Well I was on the roof, trying to relax and calm down, the day before my mom had died to some villain, and my usual bullies seemed to always bring her up in their taunts that day. They didn’t know, and I know they wouldn’t have said what they said if they did. Anyways, I was on the roof, it was relaxing just like it is now. But just like now, two people interrupted the peace, granted you guys aren't as hostile as those others were”

“Did they kill you and cover it up as a suicide?!” Silver-Rabbit sounds mad when he said that

“Oh heavens no. They didn’t intend to push me off the roof. They came to bother me about my recent change in behavior, I had punched them both the day before and headbutted their leader that day due to some impulse telling me to after they mentioned my mom. They started teasing me about final growing some balls and since they left me alone the last time I hit them I tried it again. It didn’t go so well, they fought back this time and with me being too close to the edge I fell over.”

“Still, people thought you killed yourself, that means they must have taken your shoes off after and put them on the roof, how they would do it without getting caught is beyond me”
He said that and it made sense. While they had the intent to bother me they still didn’t want any trouble and actively tried to cover it up

“The school's cameras don’t work and it was late in the day. The only time's teachers stay are when dentition is being served, or when parents are talked to. They leave when we leave, and we were allowed to stay intel at most 5 before the rest of the staff locked the building”

Silver-Rabbit took out a small notepad and pen from his utility belt and started writing stuff down. “What’s the name of this school?”

“I don’t really think it matters”

“What is the name of the school”

“Adera Junior High”

“Cool cool. Say, you mentioned finally fighting against your bullies. Do you actually know how to fight?” Silver-Rabbit said it like he was offering something

“U-um no. The only time it worked was when I surprised them by fighting back because they didn’t expect it. Why do you ask?”

“Well, I know a lot about fighting with my fists and using my capture scarf, I also tend to rely on my quirk sometimes, but T- Cheshire can teach you how to fight with Knives. This might be a surprise to you, but we are around your age and are in a very similar situation to you. We don’t have a family/home to go to. Forgotten by society, we roam the street to protect it. Or at the very least, those who didn’t wrong us.”
Were they really my age? So young and accomplishing so much. Joining them would mean being a vigilante. All might said I can be a hero, but now that I’m legally dead the only real option is being a vigilante.

“If I wasn’t me I’d call this Deja Vu considering the similarities between our meeting and the first time I met Sil.”

“How did you guys meet?”

“Well, I had been a Vigilante for a year. On a patrol, I had come across her after an Incident got her kicked from her family. After she explained her situation to me, I asked her to tag along with me, and now, 2 years later we are some pretty skilled vigilantes. So I will say, the situations are pretty similar.”

“How old are you two?”

“I’m 16,”

“~I’m 15 and single~,”

“Cheshire, leave the boy alone.”

“You’re no fun!”

“Our Job-”

“This isn’t about our job right now!”

“How is this not about our job? We are basically taking on a new employee! We need to be professional!”

“Bunny you know I’m not professional! This isn’t an actual “Job” in the sense you just described! We are vigilantes, this, sir, is not a Wendys”

“Ok, you know what I appreciate the meme reference there. Anyways point taken. No need to be professional. I just like order.”

Silver-Rabbit turned to me and took off his hood and mask, lifting his goggles, and then sat down in front of me. His hair was a silvery color, long, but still kept. His eyes were a dull grey, and it seems like they’d seen some sh*t.

“My name is Travis Knight, and I moved here from America about 4 years ago. My quirk allows me to create and manipulate a strong metal Alloy.”

Cheshire did the same thing, taking off her mask and hood, then sitting down.
“My name is Himiko Toga, and my quirk allows me to turn into someone if I drink their blood! It isn’t entirely useful in a battle as I can’t use their quirk. But I do have this neat other thing I can do where I hold my breath and clear my mind I can disappear from my opponent's view-”

“Like the Cheshire cat!” like everything else I’ve done in the past couple of days, I didn’t mean to say it. Lately, all I’ve been doing is stuff on impulse.

“Yeah!” toga said in excitement that was equal to mine, Atleast I wasn’t alone

“ The name Cheshire makes so much sense to me now. You share a lot of visual Similarities to Cats. You have fangs, your eyes, and the buns you have sorta resemble cat ears. I wonder how that all works in relation to your quirk, tho? Turning into others isn’t related to the Cheshire cat, maybe there is another type of fictional cat that has similar abilities mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter…”

“Kid? Kid!”

“Huh? Oh sorry, I like to analyze people's quirks and fighting styles. I have a notebook full of analyses of different heroes, and how to best use their quirks. I usually include a drawing next to them with different notes, things to ask them if I ever get the chance. It was a hobby I started because I thought I was quirkless if I could analyze someones fighting style and use what I learned against them. I can do It pretty on the spot but I like to make notes to- Oh sorry! I ramble a lot, If I g-get too into the topic my thoughts tend to spill out in mutters”

“Thats fine, I don’t mind. I would actually help if you could analyze us”

“I would have already had an entry for you guys in my notebook It's just I usually get what I get from videos and real battles. But there isn’t a single image or video of you guys out there”

“Thats cuz our friend ~Curcuit~ Removes them for us!” toga said excitedly

“ who’s Circuit? I’ve never heard that name before”

“He’s our secret 3rd member of our team. He doesn’t do physical Vigilante work. He’s a hacker who digs up information, exposing corrupt corporations and people. He has an algorithm that scans the internet for images of us that are posted then deletes the image from the internet and sends a virus to the devices connected to the account to locate and remove the source image and all of its copies. Does the same for videos. His computer skills are pretty cool.”
Travis said this with admiration in his tone
This Circuit guy sounds like he’s powerful

“It’s possible his quirk could link him with technology, a complex program like that would almost require it. Come to think of it my friend Lucas has a quirk like that. “
“~Oh?~”

“Huh, it’s entirely possible, seeing as we’ve never met Circuit. He only made the program as a gift after we helped him with something. Anyways it is probably not the best for you to stay up here. If we could find you, a pro could find you, and I don’t how you would explain your situation to them. So you should come with us ”

The two of them put their masks on and Silver-Rabbit grabbed my duffle bags. I do the same and put my mask and jacket on pulling up my hood. I grab my backpack and follow them. It’s a little easier to jump from building to build when you aren’t carrying a lot of weight but Silver-Rabbit seems to be doing just fine. I’m thankful for the gaps between the building being small enough for me to jump but it seems some of these upcoming ones aren’t so easy. Before I could ask how we would get across this next one, the armor on Silver-Rabbit melts off and forms together to make a bridge that the two of them use to get across. They stop a second to look at me as I make my way across. I’ll have to write that down in my notebook later.

We make our way to an old-looking building, there’s a door on the roof that Travis unlocks and we go inside. The inside of the place looks like an old apartment building. We go into one of the apartments where they set up everything. Two sets of blankets and pillows are on the floor. There are notes and pictures on a board next to what looks like Travis’s “bed”. There is also a note, with a date 2 weeks from now on it.

“This is our current place a stay, We move around a lot because the places we choose are usually condemned buildings. You can do whatever you’d like. We got two weeks to stay here so get comfortable. We can start some of your training tomorrow in the afternoon”

Chapter 3: Chick fil a

Chapter Text

For the next 2 months, Izuku would train his skills and body with Travis and Toga, learning how to hold his own in a fight. He now has decent skill in hand-to-hand combat thanks to Travis and has learned to use a blade thanks to Toga. Using what Izuku took with him and Travis’s quirk they were able to make a street outfit for Izuku. He wears black jeans and his red shoes which have been modified with a metal plate on the tip, and a pop-out blade to lethalize kicks. He has a utility belt with first aid and other equipment. His prototype mask has been reforged by Travis to be stronger, and Izuku added a pair of ski goggles to finish his disguise. He wears and Grayish-blue jacket and has his Yellow backpack on him at all times. He keeps his notebooks and pens in there along with a couple of bottles of water and snack bars. Travis forged knuckle dusters and knives for Izuku to use. Izuku keeps the knuckledusters on his belt while his Knives are stored on various parts of his body. There are four on each thigh, two on his calves, three on each side of his waist, two on his shoulders, a small katana on his back, and two chain knives connected to his wrists.
In these months he’s also trained his quirk, naming it Ghost because that’s what he is now, he’s noted the abilities to phase through objects as well as the ability to become Invisible. Izuku is sure there are more abilities linked to this quirk, but he hasn’t found them yet. After his 2 months of training Toga and Travis decide he is ready to join them on patrol. The three of them hop roof to roof, with it being easier for Izuku. They run into the first villain that Izuku can test his training on, a lowly thug trying to rob a convenience store at gunpoint. Toga and Travis sit behind and watch from nearby ready to intervene if anything goes wrong. The man is yelling at the clerk and Izuku walks in and begins to browse making sure the clerk and guy didn’t see under his hood.

Izuku is looking through candy as the villain turns to Izuku and points the gun at him.

“Hey! You! Give me your money as well!”

Izuku quickly spins around throwing a Knife at the guy's gun knocking it out of the guy's hand and pinning the gun to the wall behind the guy.

“Holy sh*t” Izuku straightens himself and begins to express excitement at the feat.
“Holy sh*t I actually made that throw that was so cool!”

The villain frustrated at Izukus behavior goes to grab the gun but his hand is stabbed by Izuku’s Knife chain. Izuku pulls the blade out causing the guy to groan in pain.

“I’m gonna kill you!” the man said in anger as he charged toward Izuku.

“Good luck with that” Izuku said as he stood still becoming intangible as the man ran right through him, crashing into a wall. As the man tried to get up Izuku punched him in the face.

“Is he out? I think he’s out.” Izuku said as he grabbed a pair of handcuffs from his belt and cuffed him

Travis walks in and binds the criminal with chains, leaving him outside with Toga and Izuku as he questions the Store Clerk. Sirens blare outside as police get closer to the shop, Travis joins the other two and they climb up to the roof to see the Police roll up and detain the Villian.

After getting a good distance away from the store the three of them stop on a roof.

“Ok, let’s review how you did,” Travis says turning to Izuku

“Great right? He looked so cool!” Toga said excitedly

“ You almost looked like a pro. Maybe tone down the Knife show. It was cool and all throwing it and catching his gun but it was luck. One wrong move and he could've shot you. Sure you could go intangible, but do you think you have the reaction time for that?”

“You’re right, while I was able to dodge his charge at me, but it took a few seconds of concentration to go intangible. In a scenario involving someone shooting me I wouldn’t be able to rely on it as a means of dodge intel I can train my quirk more”

The three hear sounds coming from below them. They look over the ledge and see two people talking in the alley.

“Hey did you get the job offer from Grian?”

“The one about All Might or the one about the Bank?”

“Both, I took up grains offer on the All Might one. They don’t have exact detail but they are planning ahead cause they need a lot of people for the job”

“How many?”

“Hundreds”

“Damn that many what-”

On the roof with the three

“What are they talking about? A job involving All Might?” Izuku said with a notebook out taking notes on each thing they said

“Grain is a know villain broker. He can get you black market support Items and Villian help as long as you have money. It sounds like someone with money is making an army for something.” Travis explains

“We need a way to get more information, we can split patrols, and see if the circuit can find anything for us.” Toga suggests

“ what about these guys maybe they know something they aren’t saying? Like how to get in touch with Grian?” Izuku questions

“It’s not hard to get in touch with Grian. And these idiots don’t know much beyond the basics. If we are to find anything of value it’s from something more than a lowly thug. Besides Grian doesn’t sell others out. We’ll take turns going on patrol with you. That way we can widen our search and get you more experience.”

The next morning Izuku was woken up by Toga, as he sits up he sees Travis turning the ears of his vigilante jacket inside out. Toga moved over to her stuff laying out some clothes.

“Put on some civilian clothes we’re going to meet circuit today,” Travis said as he put his jacket on

“What are you doing with the ears of your jacket? It’s very confusing” Izuku said half asleep

“He likes to be ready so he wears his vigilante outfit all the time and just alters it, he calls it prepared-ness I call it paranoia,” Toga says

“I think it’s a generally smart Idea to atleast be prepared for an altercation, it’s easy for him when the rest of his costume he fabricates with his quirk,” Izuku said as he got up going through his bags pulling out jeans, a plain shirt, and a black hoodie.

He goes into a separate room puts on his jeans, plain shirt, and red shoes, and begins strapping the holsters for his calve knives and waist knives. He puts on the hoodie and goes back into the main room. He grabs his backpack and begins packing up his notebooks, he then stuffs the rest of his vigilante gear into his bag.

“Not you too,” Toga says as she walks into the main room seeing Izuku places his ski goggles and mask in his bag

Izuku brushes her off as he finishes packing his gear, he puts on a mask, and the three walk out.

“We’re going to the mall, Circuit said he’d meet us there,” Travis explained

“Did he give us a specific location, an outfit description?” toga asked

“ He just said to meet at the food court, and that “he’ll find us” we’ll have about an hour to kill when we get there so I hope you brought your cash.” Travis answers

After walking for a while the three arrive at Walkers Ward Shopping Mall. They walk around looking at the stuff they have to offer, clothes, tools, and food.

They’re near a clothing store when Izuku hears a commotion come from nearby.

“Did you guys hear that?”

“Hear what-”

More noises come from what seems to be the utility hallway (clarification, IDK what it is called, but I'm referring to the hallways in malls that sometimes have vending machines, water fountains, bathrooms, and usually an emergency exit or staff only doors).

The three of them look down the hallway to see a man approaching a girl threateningly. She has a bit of distance between them, but she is close to hitting the exit door. Instantly Izuku takes out two of his knives hands one to toga and the two run into the hall. Izuku throws his knife at the guy, hitting him in the shoulder and causing him to turn towards them. Izuku equips his knuckles and punches the guy in the stomach causing him to fall to the ground. He quickly tried to get up, but Toga knees him in the face knocking him out. Izuku grabs his first aid kit from his bag and gets gauze and bandaging. He removes his knife from the guy's shoulder and fixes up the wound so he won’t bleed. Izuku turns to toga and asks
“We’re on the second floor, right?”

“I think so”

“Cool”
Izuku fishes through his bag and grabs some rope.

“Where did you get that?” Toga asked sure that he didn’t have that before

“One of the stores”

He takes out one of his notebooks and pen and begins writing

“We never choose my name huh?”

“No I don’t think we did, Izu what are you doing?”

“You’ll see”

Izuku begins tying the guy up, and as he does the girl approaches them and Izuku looks at her.

“Um, thanks for the save? I saw that guy following me and I tried to get to the bathroom and thought he’d go away, but he corned me before I could get in”
The girl was still nervous, and with the path being blocked by two knife wielders, it was understandable.

Toga responded to the girl “no problem Cutie! It’s what we do!” she said enthusiastically

Izuku takes the guy's wallet and looks through it. He takes all the man's cash, roughly a couple hundred dollars. He also takes a few gift cards to stores in the mall.
Izuku makes sure to leave the guy's ID with him as he drags him out of the emergency exit door.
Izuku sticks a paper to him that reads “caught this man creeping on a girl. You’re welcome. -Impulse” Izuku drags him down the steps before pulling him to a pole on the sidewalk and quickly tying him to it before he runs back to the door, Toga holding it open.

Izuku walks in holding a cat cafe $50 gift and asks “So you want something to drink?”

“Sure,” the girl says

The three are joined by Travis as they exit the hallway heading to the Cat Cafe in the mall. As they enter Travis stays out but not before saying “you got 30 minutes”.

The three ordered drinks and snacks and then sat down at a table to wait on their order. A few minutes later their names are called and Izuku picks them up and sits back down.

“How are you feeling?” Izuku asks the girl

“I'm alright, just creeped out. So, I'm right to assume you guys aren’t heroes?” the girl asks

“We aren’t, but I've always wanted to be one” Izuku answers

“Me too! I’m in my last year of middle school, and I plan on going to UA next year!” the girl says excitedly

“That’s cool! What type of hero do you want to be?” izuku asked

“I want to be a mix of action hero and a rescue hero. My quirk is good for removing debris”

“Izuku…”

“huh? “ izuku turns to toga as she points outside at Travis waving them down

“Oh, it was nice meeting you but it seems we have to go”

“That’s alright! Thanks for the save, and the food”

The three stand up as Izuku realizes something “Oh, I realized we never introduced ourselves, I'm…. Hiro….. This is Toga”
“It was nice meeting you two, I'm Ochaco Uraraka,” she says as she leaves
The two begin gathering their things and begin to walk out the door. They meet up with Travis as they head to the food court.

They sit down at a booth and wait a couple of minutes before another person wearing a mask sits down next to them with a food tray and package.

“You guys hungry?” the guy asks and he unpacks his chick fil a bag and puts a straw in his drink

“Circuit?” Travis said questioningly

“The one and only, Cheshire, Rabbit. Good to meet you in person. Third person, Rabbit told me about a noobie in the group, what's your name?” Circuit says as he takes off his mask, his face still hidden by his hood.

“My name is Impulse”

The man paused, quietly gasping at Izukus's response. “Cool, anyway I’ve been researching the thing you messaged me about. I got nothing but a name for the group. L.O.V, it’s an acronym, but for what I dont know”

“What’s in the box?” Toga asked curiously

“Phones. no way to track them. Infinite cellular data, call text, The works. A better way of communication. The contacts for each other are already set up. I also made a laptop with a similar setup. And I made you guys ear pieces, connect to the phones allowing for seamless talk between us.” he says as he opens a box of chicken nuggets and begins eating

“Us?” Toga asks

“Are you planning on joining us Circuit?” Travis asks

Circuits tone switched to serious “Yes, I don’t know much but I know that whatever LOV is doing is big.”

“May I have some nuggets?” Izuku asks sheepishly

“Yeah, dude! Dig in” Circuit says as he pulls out another box of nuggets and some dipping sauce and hands them to Izuku

Circuit grabs a thing of fries and hands them to Travis who begins eating them.
Toga grabs a box of nuggets as well.
“God, Chick fil a is so addicting!” Toga says as she begins eating

“Here, let me get you guys some sodas,” Circuit says as he gets up

“Cherry co*ke” Toga says

“Just get me a sweet tea,” Travis says

“Root beer,” Izuku says

Circuits walk away for a bit before returning with their drinks.

“So anyway, I think the addictivity has to do with the peanut oil they fry it in or something. Either way, it’s delicious. So I realize I dont know a lot about you guys. If we are to work together how about some introductions. I’ll start. Lucas is my name, my quirk is technopath. I can control and create technology. Although making it takes a bit of time depending on what it is and the items aren’t permanent. Izuku how about you go next?”

“Oh ok… Wait what?” Izuku looks up at Circuit watching as he takes off his hood. Izuku takes off his mask.

“Lucas?? You’re circuit??”

“You know him Izuku?” toga asks

“I was his friend intel I thought he jumped off a roof. You’ve been alive this whole time and didn’t come to me? Dude, that hurts I'm revoking your nugget privileges.” lucas says taking away the box of nuggets in front of Izuku.

“Aw, man. For your information, I didn’t jump off a roof, I fell, after being pushed. Then I woke up in a morgue, with a quirk. That gives me the powers of your typical ghost I guess”

“I’m sorry you were pushed? By who? Was it bakugo? No wait he cried too much. Was it those two jackasses that I never bothered to learn the name of?”

“Yeah, those guys! Wait kacchan did what?”

“Never mind that, back to introductions, we know each other, but Cheshire, rabbit. Your turns”

“I’m Himiko toga, my quirk can let me turn into someone if I drink their blood. I can also become invisible if I hold my breath and clear my mind”

“I'm Travis, I call my quirk Metalfication, it lets me create and control a strong metal alloy.”

“Izuku you can have nugget privileges back,” Lucas said

“Thanks”

The group finishes eating before exiting the mall. Lucas splits off saying he’ll be in touch after he hands the box of tech to them.

The three of them head back to their camp before later that night they go on patrol.
After stopping a couple of muggings the group rests on a rooftop, eating sandwiches Izuku made earlier.

“These are really good Izuku,” Toga said with her mouthful

“Thanks, my mom and Uncle Masaru taught me and Kacchan everything I know about cooking. Kacchan is better at it than me, but thats normal”

“We never really talk about family and how they were like.” Toga said

“Thats because family is half the reason we are here, societal ghosts whose persons only have meaning as the vigilantes criminal have nightmares about, and unground heroes hope to meet. Toxic familial and social normals are what created the foundation for this team.” Travis explained

“I didn’t understand a single thing you said” Toga stated

“I don’t know why I even try,” Travis said defeated

A notification chime is played from their phones and when they check them they see a message from Lucas.

“ Empire Bank is being robbed get there quick”

The three immediately begin heading towards Empire Bank. When they arrive they see three vans parked outside the bank with the doors wide open.

Travis forms 12 bullets out of his metal and pops all the tires of the vans. The drivers of each van get out and begin looking around. One of them spots the group on the roof and begins shooting at the three. Travis forms a barrier blocking the bullets as the other two drivers also begin firing at them.

After a second of concentration, Izuku becomes intangible and sinks down into the building while Toga focuses on her breath and vanishes.

On the ground Izuku phases up out of the ground behind one of the Drivers, tapping him on the shoulder as the guy turns around Izuku punches him in the face with one of his metal knuckles.

Toga begins vanishing and unvanishing in front of the other two drivers causing their attention to switch to her. She vanishes again only appearing after knocking out another one of the drivers. The last guy watches as izuku and toga close in on him. Travis lands on the ground grabbing the guy with his scarf and throwing him into the wall behind them.

The group heads inside seeing an employ-only door open with the handle shot off. Behind the door is a hallway leading to an elevator. Standing in front of the elevator was a gunman that the group quickly knocked out as they used the elevator down to the vault level.

As the door opens up two gunmen stand with their guns pointed at the elevator. Travis and Toga stay to the sides as Izuku is Intangible and walks toward the gunmen as they fire at him with no luck in hitting him. He phases through the door they were guarding. The two stop firing, looking confused before two arms come from the door grabbing them and knocking them out by slamming them against the door.

Izuku opens the door allowing Travis and Toga to continue getting closer to the vault. When they arrive near the vault room they see a group of 4 gunmen guarding someone with a heat quirk trying to metal the vault door.

Travis runs into the room throwing his scarf out to grab onto the closes two gunmen grabbing them and throwing them into each other. The other two begin firing at Travis but the bullets bounce off him as his metal coats his skin. Toga appears behind the other two Jabbing a knife into the shoulder of each causing them to drop their guns. The guy with the heat quirk turns around and tries to grab onto Toga before she vanishes and Izuku appears in her place. Izuku, intangible, phases his arm through the guy's face in an attempt to blind him, but as he does the guy passes out and falls to the ground.

“What was that?” Travis asks confused

“I don’t know, I was trying to blind him by phasing through his eyes. sh*t, did I kill him??” izuku says

Travis goes to check but the guy grabs onto Travis's arm using his quirk to heat it up.

“ARGH!” Travis screams

The two gunmen toga stabbed stand up grabbing their guns but are quickly disarmed as arrows hit them in the chest. Izuku and Toga turn to see a hooded figure holding a bow. The guy materializes another arrow that he hits the heat quirk guy with, causing him to let go of Travis and incasing him ice.

The hooded figure speaks, his voice sounding like it is going through a change. “Move away from the Ice he’s still not out.

The heat from the guy's quirk causes the Ice to explode open. The hooded guy materializes more arrows that he fires at the guy but he burns them up. The hood fires another arrow that creates a blinding light, the thug covers his eyes and is hit with another arrow that electrocutes the guy, causing him to fall to the ground.

“Now he’s out” the hooded figure states

“Who the f*ck are you?” Toga asks

“I told you,” the guy says as he pulls off his hood and his mask dematerializes revealing it to be Lucas

“That I would be joining you” Lucas continued

“Damn, well I wasn’t expecting you to join so soon,” Travis said

The group hears a large number of footsteps causing Lucas to puts his hood a mask back on.

“POLICE! PUT YOUR HANDS UP”

The group backs up as a large number of cops show up.

“Oh sh*t” Lucas exclaims

“Um, what are we gonna do?” Izuku asks in a whisper

“I have no Idea” Toga whispers back

“Hands in the area” one of the officer's repeat

“The robbers have been caught,” Lucas says pointing to the guys on the floor

“Who are you? Show your hero badges!”

“Oh sh*t, now what are we gonna do?” toga says quietly

Lucas creates his bow and fires an arrow that creates a massive amount of smoke. He grabs the group and pulls them towards another exit that leads into a hallway. They run towards the elevator room running into another officer who radio plays “four unknown villains running from the vault, all possibly armed, approach with caution. Block off stairs and elevator”

The officer grabs his gun and aims it at them “Don’t move!”

Lucas fires an arrow that disarms him, he fires another arrow that opens into a net restraining the cop.

They continue heading for the Elevator arriving to see two cops guarding it. They aim their guns and say “Don’t move! It’s better for you if you just surrender”

Travis sends two bullets to knock out their guns. Lucas pins them to the wall with net arrows, and they head into the elevator.

“sh*t it doesn’t work they must have shut it off,” Lucas says

“Can your turn it on?” Toga asks

“No the controls on too far I can’t control them from here” Lucas answers

Travis knocks open the emergency exit hatch on the roof and the group climbs up.

Lucas fires an arrow that grapples him to the top while Travis makes a platform that he, Izuku, and toga use to get to the top. They open the doors on the second floor of the bank and make their way to the roof using the stairs. On the roof, a police helicopter points a spotlight on them. Lucas shuts it off and the four try to escape.

Jumping from roof to roof they are chased by the helicopter intel it pulls back.

“Why are they pulling away?” Toga asked confused

“I don’t know just keep running!” Lucas says

The group keeps jumping from roof to roof before they reach one that Travis has to make a bridge for. He does and they get across but as Izuku is walking across the bridge loses form, Lucas’s mask, hoodie, boots, and gauntlets begin to dematerialize, and a scarf grabs onto Izuku as he falls into the alleyway. The group follows the scarf up to see a man in a black outfit with yellow goggles pulling Izuku up onto the roof opposite them.

Lucas's outfit rematerializes as the man looks away. Izuku, once on the roof, quickly gets up and backs away from the man, grabbing his knives.

Travis regains control of the bridge absorbing the metal, while Lucas forms his bow, aiming it at the man.

“Stand down, things will be better for you if you don’t fight me,” the man says

“That’s Eraserhead! Careful he can erase your quirks!” Izuku informs everyone

“I am not going to jail, the outfits are so not cute!” Toga exclaims

“Calm down everyone, Eraserhead, just let us go, all we did was stop the robbery,” Travis said trying to reason.

“I figured your vigilantes, but using your quirks, for any reason, without a license is against the law,” Eraserhead stated.

“Thats so unfair!” Toga whined

“I don’t care how unfair you think it is. If you really wanted to help people you would’ve gone to a hero school”

“Sometimes that isn’t an option,” Izuku says causing Eraserhead to turn to him

“Enlighten Me”

“Do I really have to?” Izuku whined

“Impulse, you're the one who brought it up you explain,” Lucas says

“I don’t wanna” izuku cried

“Why?” Toga asked

“I’m tired” Izuku stated

“Oh my god, I'm surrounded by Idiots” Travis complained

“How old are you people? You act like children” Eraserhead said

“Ha, that’s cuz we are!” Toga said

“Cheshire! You weren’t supposed to say that!” Travis scolded

“Oh sh*t, my bad” toga said

“You’re kids? You shouldn’t be doing this it’s dangerous!”

“f*ck it” Lucas fired an arrow to Eraserheads left that created a flash bang blinding Eraser

“Impulse get over here!” Lucas yelled

As Izuku tried to run and jump over the gap, Eraser regain his vision trying to capture him but missing causing Izuku to lose his balance a fall down into the alleyway.

“sh*t! Kid!” Eraser Yelled

“Izuku!” Toga yelled

“No, not again!” Lucas yelled

“f*ck, Impulse!” Travis yelled

Toga, Lucas, and Travis made their way down to see Izuku's motionless body, his mask broken off and his goggles missing, blood on his face.

“No, No, No, No” Toga cried

“Wake up, come on!” Lucas pleaded

Eraserhead landed down, eyes still adjusting.

“Oh, god. What have I done?” Eraserhead said saden

A few minutes go by of the group frozen around Izuku

“Ah f*ck that’s a headache Tylenol won’t fix,” Izuku said as he sat up

“Impulse! You’re alive?” Travis said confused

“Of course I'm alive. Why wouldn’t I be?” Izuku said confused

“You just fell 8 stories,” Toga said

“How many stories is Aldera?” Izuku asked

“3?” Lucas answered

“f*ck YEAH NEW RECORD!” Izuku said throwing his arms up

“What’s going on? Kid are you ok?” Eraserhead said confused

“What’s with that face? Looks like you’ve seen a ghost?”

As izuku said that another flash of light blinds Eraser and as his vision clears the group is gone, nowhere to be seen. On the ground, there is still fresh blood that Eraser takes a sample of before leaving.

Chapter 4: Look's like you've seen a ghost Eraser

Chapter Text

Eraserhead walked into the police station, an officer handed him a file for him to write his report.
After filling it out he is approached by Detective Tsukauchi.

“Dang, you look like you’ve seen a ghost, Eraser”

"Tsukauchi take this serious"

"ok ok, Report"

"while in a standoff I learn a bit about them. They are vigilantes I recognized two of them as they fit the destruction of Cheshire and Silver Rabbit. The other two seemed to be new ones I’d never heard of before. One of them was named Impulse. The other I never heard the name of”

“Impulse? Earlier today someone with multiple warrants out for their arrest was found tied up in front of Walkers Mall, a note taped to the front of him saying that it was done by someone named Impulse”

“There is more, in an altercation with them, I learned a couple of things, all four of them are at most 17, they are all minors. And I saw the face and caught the name of the one called Impulse.”

“Describe him”

“Cheshire slipped up and called Impulse “Izuku” and after he lost his mask I saw his face, He had green hair, green eyes, and freckles. But that’s not all, he has some sorta healing quirk as after a small fight he fell 8 stories and walked it off. I was able to retrieve a sample of his blood for testing”

“Interesting, I will look into this”

“One last thing, the kid mention a place, a School I think. Aldera it might be worth something”

Over the next month, the four Vigilantes would split up patrols, they started gaining more attention. The names Impulse and Circuit were now connected to Cheshire and Silver Rabbit. Thanks to Lucas forgetting to add himself and Izuku to the image delete list, images of the two began circulating online. Izuku began going on morning patrols by himself, helping people with small things. He became more recognizable to the underground hero community and the local population.

One night patrol Izuku was walking the streets, helping a local delivery worker load boxes into a truck. After completing the job he began chatting with the worker when someone caring a small to-go box bumped into him, dropping the box. Izuku quickly turned around and caught it.

“Ah watch it!” the person said

“Hey, man, calm down, the dude was just standing there you're the one not looking,” the worker said standing up for Izuku

As Izuku handed the box to the person as he realized it was Bakugo.

“Hah? Oh sorry, force of habit. Thanks for catching it I guess.”

“No problem! I’m here to help!” Izuku nervously said

Bakugo began walking away and the worker returned to his job. Izuku became curious as to what Katsuki was doing out so late. It had been 3 months since his “death” and from the way, he looked at the funeral combined with Lucas’s comments it seems he wasn’t taking it so well.

Izuku caught up with Bakugo and tried to start a chat. “So what are you doing tonight?”

“Hah? I don’t see how that is any of your business!”

“I’m just curious”

“That doesn’t- Hey wait a minute! You’re that Vigilante Impulse!”

“I don’t see how that’s relevant to what you're doing.”

“Serious why do you care to know what I’m doing”

“Just cuz I'm a vigilante doesn’t mean all I do is fight villains. I help civilians like the worker back there.”

“If you think I need help with something you're an Idiot. Whatever-”
Bakugo pauses
“Tag along if you’d like I don’t give a sh*t”

The pair just keep walking, they make their way to a cemetery causing Izuku to be confused. Intel he realizes what grave stones they got to. Inko and Izuku Midoriya

Bakugo doesn’t speak he just opens the to-go box, the familiar smell of katsu don hitting Izuku's nose like a train. “What is he doing?” Izuku asks himself

Nervously Izuku breaks the silence “w-Was he your friend?”

“At one point we were, then I went and f*cked it all up. It’s his birthday today and I don’t even think I should be here”

Izuku goes silent again, thoughts running through his mind. “Oh sh*t, I forgot It’s my birthday” “he did this for me?” “why is he acting different”

“Why shouldn’t you be here? What did you do thats so bad?” Izuku knows, some part of him just wants to hear him say it

“I was a jackass, we wanted to be heroes but when we learned he was quirkless I began teasing him for it. Originally I just wanted to keep him safe, keep him from getting hurt. But as we got older I enjoyed the power, the sense of superiority I felt I had. He killed himself 3 months ago, his mom was killed by a villain the day before, and the day before that I told him to jump. How can I continue to want to be a hero? How can I still strive to be the best when I killed the person who was supposed to be my friend? What the hell am I supposed to do now?”
Bakugo spilled, all this seemed to be building up for months. He seemed on the verge of tears

“Give up”

“What?” Bakugo looked up at Impulse confused

“If you believe you can’t move past a mistake you made then Give Up. Instead of feeling bad and drowning in self-pity move past it, and learn from it. Don’t let it keep you from being a Hero, instead make it the reason you are one. Be the hero Izuku would want you to be”

Bakugo was silent before he closed up the to-go box and handed it to Impulse.
“Thank you, for walking with me, and for the talk. Izuku would want you to have that. You look like a homeless person”

“Ha! That’s cuz I am” Izuku said way too proudly leaving Bakugo confused

“Sorry… and thank you for the food. Say I never got your name, I wanna know it for when you become a pro!”

“It’s Katsuki Bakugo. Remember it for when I arrest you. Seriously Vigilantism is Illegal”

“Ha, Like you can touch me. See you later Bakugo” Izuku said As he went intangible sinking into the ground leaving Bakugo Alone

“That’s f*cking weird,” Bakugo said before walking off

Later that night Izuku sits on the edge of a roof eating the Kausudon Bakugo gave him. Izuku hears the sounds of someone joining him on the roof, he refrains from looking at them simply enjoying the view. Eraserhead stands there looking at Izuku.
“I think I understand what you meant by hero schools not being an option,” He said catching Izuku's attention

A few weeks ago

“Aizawa, welcome back, I have some information on that vigilante,”

“Alright, spill”

“Well, the situation is a little weird. Combining the Name, description, and blood test we found Izuku Midoriya 14. He was a student at Aldera Junior High”

“Ok, what else is there on him? Family? Address”

“That’s where things get weird. His mother, Inko Midoriya, is deceased, the two of them lived alone.”

“What about his father?”

“Eraser-”

“What about his father?”

“The mom and dad are divorced, the father Hisashi Midoriya moved to Kamino. But Eraser, legally speaking the kid is dead”

“What?”

“Reports show he committed suicide by jumping off the roof of Aldera and was found by a classmate of his, Katsuki Bakugo. The morgue he was kept at reported his body missing that night. No other follow-up reports intel your encounter with him. Legally speaking the police department can’t help find a dead person. Most would chalk up the missing body to a weird robbery. The most I can tell you is you’d have better luck winning the lottery than getting police help on this one.”

“Then ill just patrol the city intel I find him”

Back to the Present

“Huh? Oh yeah, took you long enough. You had my name, face, and a location I was associated with yet it still took you a month to figure out my story”

“Please. It took a week to figure out who you were. It took 3 weeks to find you”

“Huh? Dang, it’s almost like I’m a-”

“Don’t finish that statement”
“Damn… well what do you want Eraser?”

“I want to help you. You have been put into a unique situation that you can’t get out of on your own. Why didn't you try to go to the authorities before?”

“I didn’t know what to do, I had just died, I didn’t know I was alive because of a quirk. I needed to survive and time to think and process what was going on. I used vigilante training with Cheshire and Silver Rabbit as a form of meditation, It’s relaxing finally being what everyone else told me I couldn’t be. It was refreshing having people believe in me”

“What is their situation like? Cheshire mentioned you were all kids”

“Silver Rabbits and Cheshire are a little older than me but are roles in society are similar. Silver Rabbit moved here from America, he lost his parents in a villain attack but no one bothered to check up on him so he just roamed the streets fighting villains and sh*t. Cheshire was kicked from her family for having what is considered a villainous quirk. The reason we are vigilantes is that we don’t have to option to be anything else.”

“What about Circuit?”

“Oh him? He’s just a kid tagging along for the f*ck of it”

“Seriously??” Eraser in a deadpan tone

“Nah, He was a hacker, I'm sure you heard of him. Circuit, the company killer. He originally fished out corrupted companies and would occasionally help Cheshire and Rabbit but now he’s joined us in fishing out this one mystery we haven’t been able to dig anything up for. Speaking of I gotta get back to my job, you should do the same”

“Wait what mystery?”

“Laters gators!” Izuku said as he vanished

“You have to be kidding me,” Eraser said as he left

Over the next 6 months, the group continued to do vigilante work and kept trying to uncover what LOV is. They had many more encounters with Heros who tried to capture them, some of which almost didn’t fail. Eventually, Lucas said he had to take a break from physical Vigilante work to study and prepare for UA Entrance exams. Over the six months, they learned little about LOV only that more and more low-level thugs are being recruited.

“Ok, I know you said we wouldn’t get anything out of Grian if we interrogated him, but what if we asked to join??” Izuku asked

“Holy sh*t” toga exclaimed

“Why would we ask to join?” Travis asked confused

“Think about it, if he thinks we want to be a part of it, maybe we will get to know more. It seems logical to me” Izuku said

“This attack seems to be an assassination attempt on All Might, a hero, We are known Vigilantes how do we convince him that we want All Might dead?”

“The same day I was told to kill myself, All Might told me to give up on being a hero and left me alone on a roof. Simple as that. Sure major parts of the truth are left out but it’s a good enough reason to want him dead. It should convince Grian”

“Ok, you’re set what about us?” Toga asked

“I don’t I only based mine in truth cuz I could. Make sh*t up, we don’t even know if we have to ID ourselves. We’ve spent 7 months trying to learn more about this LOV, we know they are connected to Grian. I’ve run out of options and don’t want to run around the city anymore. I already had Lucas set up a meeting between me and Grian. If you guys want to join me on this go ahead”

“Well I'm on board, What about you Travis?”

“I have to agree this is the only option we have left. So I will join you”

“Great cuz the meeting is in an hour, and it’s in the warehouse district.”

The group makes their way over to the warehouse district where they are let into an abandoned warehouse. Inside they see Grian smoking a cigarette.

“Impulse I presume? Whose the company?”

“Friends who decided to tag along”

“So tell me, why would a supposed Vigilante want to kill All Might?”

“Supposed Vigilante, I never claimed to be, even if I am, people are allowed to hold a grudge, right?”

A mass of black and purple mist forms in the room out of it a man covered in hands walks out and the mist forms into a dude wearing a suit.

“Greetings I am Kurogiri,” the mist says
“This is my Master, Tomura Shigaraki, He is the one leading the attack”

“So, what kind of grudge would a hero imitater like you have against All Might?” The guy with hands on him asks

“ Is being told to give up on your dreams worthy enough for a grudge?”

“Elaborate” he demanded

“Originally I wanted to be a Hero, a dream everyone told me to abandon. For reasons, I won't get into I got the chance to ask All Might if I could be a hero. He also told me to give up. So instead of being a hero, I decided why not try and be a villain for a change?”

“If you are a villain why do you help people?”

“I’m a villain, not a monster. Some lines people shouldn’t cross. Creeps and Abusers are the types of people I dont tolerate.”

“I can agree with that. You guys are in. Keep these on you.”

Grian hands each of them a small device

“When you are needed Kurogiri’s warp gate will appear to you”

After he said that He and Kurogiri disappeared in a mist.

Grian left and so did the group. All they had to do was wait.

A month later, at UA High Bakugo and Lucas run into each other while being shuffled into an auditorium for an explanation of the physical test. Present Mic explains the point systems. As Lucas arrives at the testing area he sees someone he recognizes. A girl with short brown hair that he believes he saw meet Izuku and Co at the mall. Also sees that Bakugo is with him. When the test starts Lucas immediately bolts into action. He forms his bow and begins taking down robots left and right racking up points. He notes some people in the battleground with him. The girl seems to have a gravity quirk. A guy with a speed quirk that asked some questions about the robots. Another dude flying around with a sparkly laser coming from his stomach. Lucas clears his mind and continues taking robots down with his arrows. Meanwhile, with bakugo, he’s quickly rising to the top taking down robots left and right. The sounds of destruction ring through the testing zone as the massive zero pointer shows up. Most testers begin running from it but Lucas and Bakugo are frozen right in front of it.

“Holy sh*t! How is this even legal???” Lucas exclaims

“Hey wait a minute, Look!” Bakugo says drawing Lucas's vision down towards the path in front of the robot. They see the brown-haired girl stuck Under some rubble.

Lucas knees down touching his shoes coating them in tech. He uses this tech to increase his speed and starts running towards the action while Bakugo uses his quirk to fly towards it.
Once there the two work together to remove the rubble from the girl's leg. They try carrying her together but they can’t move fast enough.

“Bakugo here, you carry her. I’ll try slowing it down” Lucas says handing her off to him before using his tech boat to jump up onto the robot.

While on the robot Lucas uses a mix of grapple arrows and his tech boats to climb to the top before trying to use his quirk to shut down the brains of the robot. He creates a massive emp blast that causes some explosions within the robot sending flying off. Not being able to materialize and tech to save him he realizes that this isn’t a good situation. Just as he is about to crash into the ground the girl jumps from Bakugos grip to stop Lucas’s fall just in time.

“ hey, thanks for the save. I had no way of getting out of that situation”

“No problem, you saved me first.”

“Let’s call it even then. Could you let me down?”

“Oh yeah here.”

After she let him down he went to help her get up while the UA Nurse, Recovery Girl, showed up to attend to the girl's injuries.

“It’s ok dearies, I’ll take care of this you go on now”

A week later Lucas got his exam results and passed with 60 combat points and 50 rescue points. But the result of the exam wasn’t what worried him, it was who was informing him of his passing. All Might was there, in the recorded screen breaking down how well he did, informing him that All Might would be a teacher at U.A. Highschool. This was an update on the LOV situation that he had to inform the other about.

“Hey Lucas, haven’t heard from you in a while? Did you get into UA?” Travis said answering the call

“Yeah I did but that’s not what’s important right now. What is important is the fact that I just learned All Might will be a teacher at U.A. starting this year. I don’t know what their plan is but I wouldn’t put it past the LOV to attack him while he’s teaching.”

Izuku cut in on the call to say “The security at UA itself is incredibly high. Tons of alarms, barrier walls, etc. The LOV would most certainly need to attack outside of school. We’ll keep you updated on what we find if anything. You just focus on school”

“Alright, talk to you guys later”

36 students got to UA through exams, 4 through recommendations, and classes were split into two with 20 students each. Lucas and bakugo were placed into Class 1A.

Upon entering class lucas saw some familiar faces, the guy with the speed quirk, the guy with the stomach laser quirk, the Girl with the gravity quirk, and Bakugo of course. When walking into the class he sees bakugo being yelled at by the speed quirk guy for resting his legs up on the desk.

“ Take your feet off that desk now!”

“Hah?”

“It’s the first day and you’re already disrespecting this academy by scuffing school property!”

“You’re kidding me, right? Your old school put a stick up your ass? Lighten Up!”

“Hey, Sonic the Hedgehog”

“Are you referring to me?”

“Haha good one, wires!”

“That is incredibly inappropriate behavior for someone trying to be a hero! My name is Tenya Iida and you should ask for it before addressing me!”

“Just so you know, one person's definition of trying to be a hero, and your definition of trying to be a hero, are entirely different things. Maybe instead of immediately trying to push your standards on those around you, you could learn more about them and the school you’re in before you force rules that don’t apply here”

“Hmmm, you’ve given me a bit to think about. Thank you.”

Iida turns to Bakugo

“I apologize, let’s start over, I am Tenya Iida from the someii private academy. You are?”

“Katsuki Bakugo from Aldera Junior High”

“Never heard of it”

“And pray that you never will again. Lucas Lycan from the same school.” Lucas says introducing himself

“Oh hey I recognize you!” a familiar voice says causing Lucas to turn around

“Oh hey, it's you, gravity girl.”

“My name is Ochaco Uraraka! It’s nice to see we’ll be sharing a class, Oh and with Bakugo!”

“Hah? How do you know my name?”

“Your friend here mentioned it when you two help me during the exam.”

“Wires isn’t my friend.”

“Really bakugo? That’s hurt full! And to think we bonded!” Lucas said over dramatically

“Shut up!”

Lucas turned to Uraraka

“My name is Lucas Lycan. Nice to meet you”

“So what do you think we are doing today besides orientation? I wonder what our teachers are like! I can’t wait to meet everybody!” Uraraka says joyfully

“ If you are just here to make friends then you can pack up your stuff now.”

Lucas, Iida, and uraraka look past the doorway to see a man in a bright yellow sleeping bag on the floor.

“Welcome to U.A. Hero Course.” the man climbed out of the bag and Lucas immediately recognized the man as the hero Eraserhead.

“It took 8 seconds before you all shut up, that’s not gonna work. Time is precious, rational students would understand that”

The man paused

“Hello, I’m Shota Aizawa, your teacher. Right, let’s get to it. Put these on and head outside” he said passing out P.E. uniforms

Outside

“What? A quirk assessment test!” the class said confused

“But orientation! We’re gonna miss it.” uraraka said

“If you want to make it in the big league you can’t waste time in pointless ceremonies. Here at UA we aren’t tethered to traditions, that means I get to run my class however I see fit. You’ve been taking standardized test most of your lives. But you never got to use your quirks in physical exams before. The country is still trying to pretend we are all created equal by not letting those with the most power excel. It’s not rational, one day the ministry of education will learn. Bakugo, you and lucas scored the highest points in the exam. What was your farthest distance throw with a soft ball when you were in junior high?”

“Uh, 67 meters I think”

“Right try doing it with your quirk”

Aizawa hands a ball to Bakugo as he moves to the circle

“Anything goes just stay in the circle. Go on your wasting our time”

“Alright man you asked for it”

Bakugo stretches for a bit before launching the ball with his quirk.

“All of you need to know your maximum capabilities. It’s the most rational way of figuring out your potential as a pro hero.” Aizawa said this while displaying the distance of the ball, 705.2 meters.

“Woah! 705 meters are you kidding me?”

“I wanna go! That looks like fun!”

“This is what I’m talking about! Using our quirks as much as we want!”

“So this looks fun, huh?” Aizawa says in an ominous tone

“You have three years here to become a hero. Do you think it’s all gonna be games and playtime? Idiots today you’ll compete in 8 physical tests to gauge your potential. Whoever comes in last has none and will be expelled immediately!”

Lucas raises his hand while looking around

“What, Lucas?”

“Just checking, you made sure all of us have physical quirks right? This combined with the entrance exam tells me you guys don’t really think about intelligence-based quirks or other useful none physical quirks. Which is weird considering who the principal is.”

“I will note that the design of the entrance exam is partial towards those with physical quirks. But Like I said I decided how this class runs. If thats a problem you can head home right now. “

“You can’t send us home on the first day! That isn’t fair!”

“Oh, and natural disasters are? Or power-hungry villains? The world is filled with unfairness, it’s a hero's job to try to combat that unfairness. If you wanna be a pro you’re gonna have to push your self to the brink. For the next three years, UA will throw one terrible hardship after another at you. So go beyond, Plus Ultra style. Show me it’s no mistake you are here.”

The 8 physical tests were

50-meter dash
Grip strength
Standing long jump
Repeated side step
Ball throw
Distance run
Seated toe touch
Sit-ups

Most of the class did really well, Lucas completed the dash in 4.06 seconds. Got 60 kg on the grip strength test. Cleared the box in the standing long jump. During the ball throw, lucas was hesitant to do anything.

“Do I have to touch the ball when throwing it?”

“Just uses your quirk however you feel. Just dont leave the line”

Lucas was hesitant to use his quirk. His first thoughts were to materialize his bow but he’s afraid Eraserhead will recognize it and the way his quirk materializes things. Eventually, Lucas decided on forming his bow and a specialized arrow, because if Aizawa was gonna recognize it he would have during the exam. He attached the ball to the arrow and lined up a shot materializing a pair of glasses with a HUD to help him line up and control the arrow. After firing the arrow it makes it 500 meters before the arrow explodes sending it another 200 hundred-ish meters. Giving Lucas a distance of 703.4 meters.

“Alright time to give you your results. I’ve ranked you all from best to worst. You should probably have a good idea of your standing already. I’ll just pull up the whole list, it’s not worth going over each individual score”

“Toru Hagakure, you’re expelled”

“What he was serious?” the class exclaimed

“That’s it, we’re done for the day. Put up a syllabus in the classroom, read it over before tomorrow morning”

Aizawa began walking away just as he was about to round the corner he turned.
“Bakugo, Lucas come to class early tomorrow. I have something I need to discuss”

Aizawa left right after

“Huh? What do you think thats about?” Uraraka asked turning to Lucas frozen in place with an expression of panic on his face.

After school as they are leaving, Lucas is still nervous as to what Aizawa meant. Iida caught lucas on the way out of school to ask how he was feeling.

“Huh, what are you talking about?”
“You seemed ill after the tests”

“Oh no, I’m just nervous. It’s the first day and I'm already being talked to by my teacher”

“That is understandable. You know, I was a bit concerned about Mr. Aizawas's approach to class, but I trust the school's judgment. Although I have to admit I thought he was bluffing to get us to go our all”

“I think most of the class thought it was a bluff. Guess that will teach them to Mr. Aizawa seriously next time.”

“Hey! Wait up you two! Are you going to the station? I’ll join you guys!” Uraraka yells as she catches up to the two

“Oh, you’re the infinity girl.”

“Oh yeah, that ball throw was impressive. I was nervous during mine”

“My name is Ochaco Uraraka. Let's see your name is Tenya Iida and You’re Lucas Lycan.”

“ Yup, to answer your question I’m not going to the station,” Lucas said pulling out what looked to be keys to a vehicle. He pressed a button.

“As someone with a technology-based quirk and way too much time on their hands I like to tinker with things. Also, I find public transportation incredibly overcrowded” After Lucas said this and driverless motorcycle showed up.

“Woah! You can drive?” uraraka asked in amazement

“ Legally I can only drive a Motorcycle, but yeah, anyways I gotta get home. See you guys tomorrow” Lucas said as a Motorcycle Helmet materialized on his head and he drove off.

Chapter 5: Is no one gonna answer me?

Chapter Text

UA Hero Course curriculum. There are the normal classes like English in the mornings, then lunch where meals can be bought for cheap. Then Hero Class in the afternoon. But before Lucas could get to that he had to face Mr. Aizawa, with bakugo. What could he want? That’s what the two talk about as they walked through the halls early in the morning.

“What do you think Aizawa would want from us? What exactly is there we have in common?” Lucas asked

“We both went to Aldera. And we both scored the same amount of points on the exam”

“Still I don’t see how either of those things could be worthy of talking to us about”

The two enter the class to see Aizawa standing at his podium.

“Bakugo, Lucas thank you for coming. This isn’t related to classwork, this has to do with Hero work I’ve been conducting over the past couple of months.”

“Hah? I don’t see how I’ll be able to help” Bakguo said

“You both went to Aldera Junior High, correct?”

“Yes,” the two said

“Did either of you know an Izuku Midoriya?”

Lucas froze his thought immediately yelling alarms as he realizes this is worse than Aizawa asking if he was Circuit.

“Um, yes he was our classmate,” Lucas said

“What does this hero work have to do with Izuku? He’s dead” Bakugo stated firmly

“I am well aware that he was reported dead, but at the scene of a bank robbery, his blood was found. Not to mention his body was reported missing from the morgue he was kept in”

“What?! Why did no one tell me this? Are you telling me that his grave is empty? He deserves a proper burial! I will find that bastard who took him and kill them!”

“Katsuki! Calm the f*ck down! Listen to the rest of what Mr. Aizawa has to say” Lucas said

“It seems that you had a close relationship with him. I can see how this could be upsetting news. But do either of you have any reason to believe that Izuku Midoirya might be alive? And if so where he would be?” Aizawa asked

“Izuku is dead and even if he was alive he wouldn’t be at any bank robbery. May I please be excused?” Bakugo said with his head down

“Yes”

Bakugo left leaving just Lucas and Aizawa

“Mr. Aizawa, may I leave as well?”

“Yes”

Lucas walked out of the classroom before immediately running to the bathroom. After entering he dropped his stuff running into a vacant stall to throw up.

“What’s your problem?”

Lucas sat on the floor of the stall to see bakugo sitting in the corner of the bathroom.

“That conversation made me nervous. I don’t do well with nervousness.”

“What would you have to be nervous about? You didn’t kill Izuku.”

“Do you honestly believe that?”

“I told him to jump, He jumped. I killed Izuku. I’m here to be a hero for Izuku.”

“Do you want to know a secret?”

“Not really….”

“You didn’t kill Izuku, those idiots who follow you did”

“What are you talking about?”

“Couple of months after Izuku “jumped” I was approached by the vigilante Impulse. He informed me that he was there the day izuku was pushed off the roof.”

“He didn’t tell me that when I spoke to him”

“What?”

“I ran into that vigilante, on Izuku’s birthday, while I was bringing something to Izukus's grave. I was feeling bad for myself, convinced I couldn’t be a hero because I killed the person who was supposed to be my friend. After some talking Impulse convinced me to be a hero for Izuku. I told him that Izuku jumped. Why didn’t he tell me?”

“Katsuki what Impulse said had happened was that Izuku was relaxing on the roof when he got into a fist fight with the two guys that followed you. They overpowered him accidentally pushing him off the roof. The two later went down to the ground floor took Izuku's shoes and placed them on the roof.”

“Why didn’t Impulse do anything?? Why didn’t he tell anyone? Why didn’t he tell me when I saw him??”

“Because he couldn’t do anything. He became a vigilante because of what he saw, he went to me because he saw me and Izuku walking together before then, he knew we were friends. He didn’t tell you because I told him not to”

“What?”

“I personally still held a grudge against you, part of me wanted you to suffer. The majority of the reason was that I wanted all the satisfaction in ruining those two idiots' worthless thing they called life”

“What did you do to them?”

“I got them thrown in juvie, framed them for a bunch of crimes like theft, B&E, drinking underage, smoking underage. Tons of sh*t, hacked their parents framed a couple of things on them. Basically ruining their lives, they won’t ever be allowed to be heroes. It’s incredibly messed up in retrospect, but so is killing someone and covering it up.”

“Hah, I would’ve done a lot more than getting them thrown in Juvie,”

“Yeah, but killing them is such short-term revenge. Making their life hell lasts”

The two sit in silence for a little while.

“I’m not mad at you for telling Impulse to keep quiet about Izuku’s death. For all the sh*t I did I deserved to suffer”

Later in the day, after normal classes were over and lunch passed, Class 1-A prepared for Hero basic training.

“I AM HERE! COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A HERO!” All Might shouted bursting through the door.

“ Woah I can’t believe it’s really All Might!”

“So he is a teacher! This year is gonna be totally awesome!”

“Hey look! Is here wearing his silver age costume?”

“I’m getting goosebumps, it’s so retro!”

“Welcome to the most important class at UA High! Think of it as Heroing 101! Here you will learn the basics of being a Pro! And what it means to fight in the name of good! Let’s get into it! Today's lesson is the pull no punches! But one of the keys to being a hero iiiiss Looking Good!” All Might pressed a button on a remote he has causing lockers with the student's hero gear to open up

“These were designed for you based on your quirk registration forms and the request you sent in before school started! Get yourself suited up and then meet me at training ground beta!”

Everyone suited up and then walked together down into ground beta.

“They say that clothes make the Pros, young ladies and gentlemen, and behold you are the proof! Take this to heart for you are all now Heroes in training!”

The class finished walking into ground beta before All Might continued

“Im getting all revved up! You all look soo Cool! Now! Shall we get started? You bunch of newbies!”

“Hey, lucas! Is that your costume? It’s a little plain don’t you think?”
Lucas was wearing a pair of black jeans with a utility belt, a pair of black socks, and a black tank top.

“Oh this isn't my hero suit, this is the base of what I couldn’t materialize with my quirk. The rest of the outfit is Tech I make to help with hero work”

“Even your shoes?”

“Especially my shoes. I’ll materialize the rest when the test starts”

“I should’ve been more specific about what I wanted, this body suit is skin tight. Not really my style”

“I'm sure you can change it, I think they told us to go to the support department for change requests”

“I love this school,” Mineta said looking at Uraraka
“Dude seriously? That grade A piece of sh*t behavior”

“Huh? What are you talking about? I wasn’t doing anything!” Mineta said quickly in his defense

“Now that you’re ready it’s time for combat training!”

“Sir! This is the fake city from our entrance exam. Does that mean we will be conducting urban battles again?” Iida asked

“Not quiet! I’m gonna move you two steps ahead. Most of the villain fights you see on the news take place outside! However statistically speaking most run-ins with the most dastardly evil doers takes place indoors! Think about it! Backroom deals, home invasions, secrete underground lairs, and truly intelligent criminals stay hidden in the shadows! Well in this training exercise you’ll be split into teams of good guys and bad guys and fight two on two indoor battles!” All Might Explains

“Isn’t this a little advanced?” Tsuyu asked

“The best training is what you get on the battlefield! But remember you can't just punch a robot this time! You’re dealing with actual people now!”

“Sir, will you be deciding who wins?” Momo asked

“How much can we hurt the team?” Bakugo Asked

“Do we need to worry about the losers getting expelled like earlier?” Uraraka asked

“Will you be splitting us up by chance or comparative skill?” Iida asked

“How are we gonna address the unevenness of the classroom now that we are one down?” Lucas asked

“I-i I wasn’t finished talking,” All Might says frustrated

All Might pulls out a booklet

“Listen up! The situation is this. The villains have hidden a nuclear missile somewhere in their hideout. The heroes must try to foil their plans, to do that the good guys have to either catch the evil doers or recover the missile. Likewise, the bad guys succeed if they protect the payload or capture the heroes! Time is limited and we will choose teams by drawing lots!” All Might Explained

“Isn’t there a better way?” Iida asked

“Think about dude. Pros often have to team up with other pros by chance. You won’t always get paired up with who you want or who you are most effective at working with.”

“Yes I see, life is a random series of events. Excuse my rudeness!”

“No sweat! Let’s draw!”

The teams that matters are Lucas lycan and Ochaco Uraraka team A, and Tenya Iida and Katsuki bakugo team D.

“Seriously All Might are we gonna get an explanation on how the teams work without toru?” Lucas asked

“No!” All Might answer

“That just sounds like lazy writing” Lucas noted

“I declare that the first teams to fight will be these guys!” All Might says holding up cards that display team D and team A

“Team A will be the heroes! Team D will be the villains! Everyone else can head to the monitoring room to watch.”

Lucas turned to Bakugo “dang, I didn’t think we’d be able to fight so soon”

“You better give it your all Wires!”

“Oh you bet I will”

“Bad guys you can go on in and get set up. In 5 minutes the good guys will be let loose and the battle will start”

“Yes sir”

Team D starts to walk in to prepare but All Might stop them “Young Iida, Young Bakugo the key to being successful in the challenge is to embody Villainy. Think from the perspective of an evil doer!”

“Got it”

“If things go too far I’ll step in”

“Understood”

Inside the building with Bakugo and Iida

“Even though this is training, it pains me to be aligned with criminal behavior Iida says walking up to the bomb

“So this is the weapon we must protect? Fake of course”

“As much as you hate being a pretend villain, activities like this are a must in hero education. Don’t go whining about it every time something like this happens”

With Uraraka and Lucas

“ do you think they really expect us to memorize this whole building floor plan? It’s so big. You know All Might’s just as cool as he is on television! I'm glad he’s not threatening us with some kind of punishment like Mr. Aizawa. We can relax!” uraraka said turning towards Lucas seeing him focus on the map

“Oh so and indoor battle exercise. Verse Bakugo and Iida. Iida has a speed quirk yet I'm not entirely sure how it works. Bakugo creates his explosion from his hands if I disable those he’s done. But to do that it would take getting close and if he’s throwing explosions at you you’re done. What kind of tech do I need in this situation? Archery tech? Runner Tech? Pilot tech? I need something combat-based, Arrows would get vaporized by Bakugos explosions so I cant go Archer. Runner tech has no purpose here so Pilot tech must be the best choice” Lucas said muttering to himself

“Hey dont you think you should make the rest of your suit? We don’t have a lot of prep time left”

“Yeah, I know I needed to figure out what suit to make.” After Lucas said this multiple pieces of technology began materializing on him. A pair of armored shoes, and multiple pieces of armor on his legs. A military-like jacket with a vest and armor covering his arms. Different sections of paneling formed on him. A pack of thrusters attached to his lower back, grapple hooks on his forearms, and a helmet with a unique shaping.

“What does all this tech even do?”

“My shoes absorb shock to allow for easier fall, the thing on my back is called a jump kit and does the same thing. The jump kit also allows for double jumping, wall runs, slip hopping, and movement-based things. The paneling all about my suit allows me to cloak myself. I can create a force field barrier, make a Holo graphic version of myself, increase my speed for a short amount of time, enter an entirely different dimension called the phase realm, and create localized sonar pulses that let me view enemies through walls. The suit also keeps me cool which is important cuz it’s about to get really hot, I also have like 30 other small bits of tech I can quick materialize to use in offensive positions. A lot of it is incredibly lethal so I'm trying to keep the sh*t I use down to a minimum”
Lucas looks at the map again. His helmet scans it and then scans the building creating a holographical version of the building projection from his helmet.

“Alright! Let’s begin the indoor combat training! Team A and team D your time starts now!”

“You have your earpiece?”

“Yes”

“Alright, you’ll enter from the bottom, I’ll go in from the top. We’ll clear each level. Here take this, it’s an interactable holographic project that will show a live feed of where we are and what we’ve learned. Once a floor is cleared it will turn red, if the bomb is spotted the area will turn blue. I have my own built into my helmet” Lucas said handing a small disc to Uraraka

“Alright!”

Uraraka makes her way in through the bottom. Lucas grapples to the top floors breaking one of the windows, he throws down two objects that emit a glowing orange wave that lines the walls and reveals objects in the rooms. Lucas clears the top floor radioing to uraraka
“One floor down, 6 to go”

Meanwhile with Team D

“I'm gonna go patrol the building, I let you know if I find anyone”

“Wait bakugo maybe we should stick together!”

Bakugo already left

Walking through the halls of floor 5 Bakugo finds nobody. Checking and rechecking each staircase. Bakugo continues patrolling the halls and stops, looking over his shoulder hearing something. He quickly turns around sending an explosion down the hall as Lucas is uncloaked and knocked back.

In the viewing room

“A sneak attack, Lucas! What kind of man pulls cheap crap like that?” Kirishima notes

“It’s a viable strategy, when dealing with someone who can’t be beaten by brute force, it's best to try and get the drop on them!”

Back in the hallway

“So, was that your plan or do you have something better than a rust sneak attack?”
Lucas holds up his right hand to show 3 pins. Bakugo looks down at the ground to see 3 discs as they grow legs and a red cylinder head as they begin jumping up and beeping, bakugo backs away causing the beeping to stop but the things to follow him. Bakugo sends an explosion in their direction destroying them. As the dust clears he sees Lucas is gone. Behind Bakugo a black and white tear in reality spits out Lucas. Bakugo turns around outstretching his right arm but Lucas is too close, he grabs onto Bakugos arm, pulls him over his shoulder, and slams him to the ground. Bakugo headbutts lucas sending him backward. The two get up and face each other.

On bakugo and Iida radios

“Bakugo? Come in! Give me a status report! Where are you?”

“I ran into Lucas on floor 5. Now shut up and defend the weapon! The girl must be after it!”

In the Observation room

“Hey, Who is bakugo talking to? I’m hearing anything! Can we get any sound with this video?” Kirishima asked

“He’s got a radio in his ear so he can talk to his partner! I gave it to him before the match started. Along with a map of the building, Also this, a roll of capture tap. Wrapping this around your opponent means you’ve apprehended them and they are out for the rest of the game!”
All Might Explained

“So their a fifteen-minute time limit, and the good guys have no idea what floor the nuclear weapon is hidden on, right?” Mina said

“Correct!” All Might affirmed

“Then the heroes are clearly at a disadvantage here! A big one!” Mina stated

“Real Pros have to outwit villains on a daily bases! That’s life, Even when the odds aren’t in our favor, we fight! All together! Let’s hear a”

“Plus Ultra!”

Meanwhile, on level 3, Uraraka has found Iida protecting the Bomb.

“Bakugo is correct, Activities like this are a must in hero education. For us to win I must temporarily devote myself to villainy even if I don’t like it. Yes, I won’t fail this trail and bring shame down on the Iida family name! That means I must now embrace evil to become a hero!” Iida said preparing himself to put on the act
“Behold! I am the personification of Villainy!”
“PFFFT He’s so serious!” Uraraka slipped out

“Huh? Uraraka is that you?” Iida said turning towards her hiding spot

“AH!” Uraraka yelped while stepping out from behind a pillar

“I knew you would come here alone to instant Bakugo engaged with Lucas! Your quirk allows you to float anything you touch! But I’ve prepared for that by hiding every object that was in this room so that you have nothing to use against me, Dogooder! My dastardly tricks have rendered you helpless! You’ve blundered hero! *evil laugh*” Iida monologed

“He really is playing the part,” Uraraka whispered to herself

With Bakugo and Lucas

On Lucas's radio “Um, Lucas? I found Iida and the bomb but he spotted me. We’re on the 3rd floor. Right now he’s monologing”

“Just keep him distracted, I need to provoke Bakugo a bit before I join you”

“What was that??” Bakugo yelled

“Nothing, say what are those oversized mittens you’re wearing for?”

“I’m glad you asked”

*Beep* the gauntlet Light up

“Right on time. I’m all loaded up” Bakugo says holding up his right arm

“Now what does that mean?”

“ If you don’t already know the way my quirk works is I sweat a nitroglycerin-like substance and then I make it blow up!”

“I’m sure I’ve heard Izuku geek out over it a couple of times. What does that have to do with your gauntlet?”

“Just imagine what I could do with a lot of it?” Bakugo outstretches his arm and pulls back the pin part of his gauntlets to arm it

“On I don’t like where this is going,” Lucas said nervously

“These gauntlets are just for show! They’ve been storing up my sweat inside for one monster blast!”

“Young Bakugo! Don’t do that! You’ll kill him!” All Might said over the radio

“He’ll be fine as long as he dodges!” Bakugo said pulling a pin on the gauntlet and firing off a massive blast that fills the hall and shakes the building and the observation room

After the smoke clears the damage to the hall is massive, the walls were blown back and there was a massive hole in the side of the building. But in the center of the hall, Lucas kneels unharmed and protected by a particle wall. Bakugo looks confused at the lack of effectiveness the explosion had on Lucas. Lucas looks up, particle wall dropping.
“Well, well, well, well, well,” Lucas says as multiple Holographic clones of him form in the hall each one repeating that word

“Well, well, well, well, well, well” The holograms from a circle around Bakugo spinning around him and continued to taunt him.

“Isn’t this interesting!” One of the holograms says as the spinning stop

“Your big move didn’t work!” Another hologram said

“Quick playing these games wires! You’re almost out of time!” Bakugo reminds him

Meanwhile with Uraraka

“Uraraka? Uraraka Respond!” Lucas says on the radio

“Lucas, what do you need?” Uraraka responds

“The holographic map has a second purpose, press the center purple button” Lucas explains

“Ok, what is it gonna do?” Urarakas

“Just do it quickly, I don’t how long those Holopilots are gonna distract Bakugo”

Uraraka grabs the device and presses the button it lights up and says “Respawn beacon activated, Summoning pilot”

Iida hears this and asks “You no good do-gooder! What are you planning?”

With Lucas and Bakugo

The holograms fade away and Bakugo spots the real Lucas
“You’re not getting away from me this time” Bakguo declared

“Oh, but I will,” Lucas said before a voice in his suit said “Respawn beacon activated, you are needed elsewhere pilot”

“See ya,” Lucas said before disappearing into a black and white tear in reality.

In the bomb room, Uraraka drops the beacon as it creates a black and white tear in reality and Lucas pops out of

In the observation room

“Woah what was that?”

“Did he just teleport 3 floors down?”

“How’d he do that!”

Back in the bomb room

“Guard the doors, If bakugo makes it down here before I take out Iida we’re done for!” Lucas said before forming a bow and arrow before aiming it at Iida taking the shot. Iida quickly dodged it, the arrow hitting the ground turn the floor to Ice causing Iida to slip at super speed.

The three hear the sounds of Explosions as Bakugo blows through the doors
“Wires you bastard! Pull that on me again and I'll kill you!”

Lucas quickly turns to Bakugo firing an arrow that bakugo can’t destroy as his quirk is being used to propel himself. The arrow splits open wrapping Bakugo keeping him restrained. As Iida tries to get up Lucas fired another Arrow at him while Uraraka made her way to capture the bomb. The arrow hits Iida freezing him and Uraraka lands on the bomb, securing the win for team A. All Might announces team A win and the test ends. Lucas’s tech dematerialize as he collapses to the ground. As bakugo is freed from the arrow he runs over to lucas, and so does uraraka.

“Lucas are you ok? Did you overuse your quirk?” Uraraka asked concerned

“Nope, just that respawn beacon is more taxing than I thought” Lucas explained

“Could someone please get me out of this?” Iida asked

“Oh, yeah Sorry Iida” Lucas said standing up and materializing his bow and firing an arrow that melts the ice encasing Iida.

“Nice job there, wires. You just might be able to beat me in a one-on-one fight. I want a rematch when we get the chance and I want you to hold nothing back!” Bakugo says

“We’ll probably get the chance eventually. Right now all I want to do is take a nap” Lucas said

The four meet in the observation room to review their results.

“Despite the result, the MVP of this exercise is Young Iida!” All Might stated

“Shouldn’t it be one of the heroes since they won?” Tsuyu asked

“Valid question. Why didn’t I pick one of those two? Who has a guess?” All Might asked

“Sir! I can tell you why!” Momo said

“Go ahead!”

“Iida embraced this challenge. He was the only one who truly adapted to his assigned role! I’ll explain! Lucas and Bakguo didn’t truly focus on the exercise at large. They truly only focused on wanting to see who would win in a fight.”

“Guilty as charged” Lucas admitted

“ Launching a large-scale attack in doors was a risky move, it ended damaging the stronghold he was supposed to be protecting. Similarly, Lucas employed an untested piece of tech once he realized he wasn’t going to win the fight. The tech ended up putting him in a vulnerable position later in the battle. Uraraka failed to take the test seriously, exposing her position in the process. The hero team's plan, in the beginning, was well thought out, with the untested tech being a backup plan from the beginning, but it quickly dissolved into chaos as Lucas and Bakugos's fight quickly turn into showing off their abilities instead of trying to fight. Iida was fully prepared for his opponent's arrival! He had a strategy and never lost sight of his mission to protect the dummy weapon even if he was foiled in the end! Technically the hero team won, but they took advantage of the fact that this was training” Momo explained

“Yes, well you overlooked a few things. Young Iida could’ve relaxed a little bit in the exercise. Otherwise, you nailed it!” All Might said

“One should always start with the basics and devote themselves wholeheartedly to learning! That’s the only real way to become a top hero!” Momo stated

“ Momo Yaoyorozu! One of the 4 students admitted to the hero course through recommendations!” Present Mic said as a Narrator

The only other note-worthy battle was todoroki, which he won by freezing the building and his opponents. Stopping the enemies without compromising the weapon.

“Take note of this students!” All Might suggested

“Seriously are we not gonna address how the teams are uneven?” Lucas asked

No response

Chapter 6: Cloudy with a chance of the League of Villains

Chapter Text

After the Battle review was over Lucas went to visit Recovery Girl to see if the respawn beacon had any other effects. After a couple of tests, passing out, and missing his afternoon classes, Lucas learned that the respawn beacon didn’t do much besides draining his stamina, similar to how Recovery Girls quirk drains it. A little bit later Lucas returns to the class being greeted by Kirishima

“Hey, it’s Lucas! It’s good to see you back, bro! Man, I don’t know what you were saying during that match but you and Bakugo went at it!” Kirishima said

“I can’t believe all the cool tech you can make!” Sero said

“You did a great job dodging!” Mina complimented

“I don’t know if you call what I did dodging” lucas responded

“You guys really turned up in the first match so none of us held back either!” Sato said

“Hey, I’m Ejiro Kirishima. We’ve been going over training results while you were in recovery”

“Hi, I'm Hanta Sero”

“More importantly-” Aoyama said being cut off by Mina

“I’m Mina Ashido!”

“Tsuyu Asui! But please call me Tsu!”

“Hey! Sato!”

“Nice to formally meet you guys. You can call me Lucas, Luke, or Luka. Doesn’t matter to me!”

Uraraka and Denki walk into the class carrying books, uraraka notices Lucas and walks over to him. “Hey, Lucas! What did recovery girl say about that beacon thing?”

“Oh yeah! You seemed really tired about that first match!” Kirishima noted

“Oh, well she told me that I’m fine it’s just the process of using the Respawn Beacon drained my stamina similarly to how her quirk drained stamina. Just without the healing part. It got me to where I needed to be. Although I don’t think I’ll be using that again.”

“Lucas, what exactly is your power?” Momo asked curiously

“You quirk is creation right? Make anything from your skin?”

“Not exactly, I can make anything by transforming the molecular structure of the fat cells in my body. I need to understand the molecular structure of the thing I want to make before I can make it.” Momo explains

“My quirk is very similar to that. My quirk is called technopath. There are two parts to it, first I can connect to and control any piece of technology, and the second part is I can materialize any type of technology but I need to have a mental blueprint for it. Certain things I have memorized the blueprints for, Like my bow and some of its arrows. The things I make aren’t permanent. They will dematerialize after a certain amount of time. How long they last depend on how complex the thing is, and how large it is. Additionally, I can make smaller pieces of tech that are permanent but that takes time and has no purpose for me.” Lucas explains

The next day of school the students are harassed by reporters asking questions about All Might's teachings.

“Are you one of All Might students tells us, What’s the symbol of peace like in person?”

“Um, what’s he like? Well, he’s super muscly” Uraraka answered nervously

_____________________________________________________________

“How is he fairing as a teacher? What are you learning?”

“He’s learned ship and wisdom remind me on a daily basis that I attend the world's most prestigious educational institution! Of course, he is the personification of honor and integrity that one would expect! But he’s also not afraid to show his students a more humorous side! It’s truly a unique opportunity to be under the direct tutelage of the pro we all admire!” Iida said boring the reports

“Kid are you in All Mights class? Hey, wait a minute aren’t you that sludge villain kid?”

“Walk away,” bakugo said threateningly

___________________________________________________________________

“Hey, are you in All Might’s class? Wait a second aren’t the son of Damien Lycan?”

“Ugh, you reporters disgust me. You got 3 seconds to walk away from me before no laws stop me from using my quirk” Lucas responds with severe annoyance in his voice

___________________________________________________________________

“Please sir, can you get All Might for us? Also, you look like a mess, what's your deal?”
“All Mights not on campus today. Now get out of here, you’ve disturbed my students enough already.” Aizawa said before leaving

The reporter who has been asking these questions gets frustrated and attempts to get answers more direct way. The others behind her warn her as the UA security barrier sets off an alarm and puts up its defenses closing off the gateway to anyone.

Inside Lucas looks outside at the reporters with a couple of his classmates

“Lucas, you practical almost bite that reports head off. What is your deal with them? And whose Damien Lycan?” uraraka asked curiously

“I don’t like severely entitled people. Reports are the most self-centered entitled beings there are. They believe they deserve the answers they aren’t privy to. They think they are entitled to meetings with heroes and celebrities. Even when people say no they push and push trying to pry personal secrets that they shouldn’t know. Look the female report almost got crushed cause she couldn’t accept that Aizawa said no. Can’t even call them human.” Lucas explained

“Whose Damien Lycan?” uraraka asked nervously

“You don’t know who Damien Lycan is?” Mina said surprised

“Should I?”

“Not really! But you should atleast know of Rebecca Lycan! The most famous fashion designer ever! Damien Lycan is her husband, I’m pretty sure he’s a support gear designer. They lived in America before moving business to Japan. Why are we talking about them?” Mina said

“Wait have not heard my last name?” Lucas said turning to Mina

“No, what is it?” Mina asked

“Take a big fat guess.”

“Wait are you? Are you Rebecca’s son?!” Mina said shocked

“Bingo! You finally figured it out Racoon Eyes” Bakugo said walking up to them

“Mon ami! Would you get me Rebecca’s Autograph! Her style is parfaite!” Aoyama asked showing up out of nowhere

“Alright students get to the classroom, class is about to begin,” Aizawa said walking past

“Yes, Mr. Aizawa”

Lucas took one last look outside, taking note of a particularly interesting person dressed in black standing separate from the reporters.

“Decent work on yesterday's combat training you guys. I saw the video feeds and went over each of your team's results. Bakugo, it’s ok to show a little restraint when in combat. Especially if a full force attack would cause problems for yourself.” Aizawa said

“Whatever”

“Let’s get down to business. Our first task will decide your future” Aizawa said sending nervous shivers down the students’s spines at the fear it’s another quirk test.

“You all need to decide on a Class Representative”

The class breaths a collective sigh of relief at normal school stuff.

“Pick me, guys! I wanna be class rep!” Kirishima says eagerly

“I’ll take it!” Kaminari volunteers

“Yeah, you’re gonna need me!” Jiro states

“ someone with style will do the best-” Aoyama says before mina cuts him off saying
“ I’m totally the right pick!”

“In a normal classroom, a representative's duties would be just a bunch of extra work. But in the hero course, there is more to it, It can help you get noticed by agencies” Lucas says as a narrator

The class continues to argue who should be the class rep before Iida silences them

“ Silence! Everyone! Please! The class representative's duty is to lead others! That’s not something just anyone can do! You must first have the trust of every student in the classroom! The most logical way to fill this position is democratical. We will hold an election to choose our leader” Iida explains

“It’s pretty obvious you want us to vote for you”

“Is this really the best idea?” Kaminari asks

“We’ve only known each other a few days. How do we know who we can trust?” Tsu asks
“Besides, everyone will just vote for themselves!” Kirishima points out

“Most people will, but that means whoever does receive multiple votes must be the most suitable person for the job! It’s the best way right sir?” Iida explains then turns to Aizawa to confirm.

“Do what you want, just decide before my naps over,” Aizawa says before falling over in his sleeping bag

“Thank you for your trust!” Iida says

“To keep this completely anonymous I’ll be making election tablets. Just tap the name of the person you want to vote for even if it’s yourself. You can only vote once. I’ve hooked them up to this projector that will display the results once we are done.” Lucas says materializing a single tablet to demonstrate

“Good Idea, Lucas!” Iida complements

Lucas materializes more tablet as Iida pass them out.

“How do we know you’re not gonna rig the results in your favor?” Mineta asks

“because I would rather die than lead this class. Besides, you have nothing to worry about Mineta. It’s not like you’d win in the first place” Lucas explains

After the class finishes deciding the tablets were dematerialized and the results placed up on the board.
Lucas is in first with 7
Momo in second with 5

“Zero votes…. I figured this might happen, but I can’t argue with the system I choose!” Iida said

“You voted for someone else huh?” Momo pointed out

“But you knew it was best to vote for yourself, what were you trying to prove here, Iida?” Sato asked

“Alright the class rep is Lucas, and our deputy is Yaoyorozu” Aizawa stated

“Damn, maybe I should’ve rigged it,” Lucas said under his breath

“I can get by on Lucas being the rep,” Tsu said

“ His plan during the battle test was manly” Kirishima stated

“Yaoyorozu was totally on top of it when it came to our training results!” Kaminari mentioned

During lunch Iida, Lucas, Uraraka, and Bakugo have lunch together

“Man it’s always so crowded in here” Uraraka complained

“That’s because students in the support, management, and hero course all share the same cafeteria,” Iida explains

“This rice is delicious!” uraraka states

“I’m not entirely sure I should be class rep.” Lucas comments

“You’ll do great” Iida states

“Huh?”

“Your courage and quick thinking under stress will make you a worthy leader. Not to mention the strength you’ve demonstrated. Those are the reasons I voted for you atleast” Iida noted

“Didn’t you want to be rep really badly? I’m mean you look the part, cause of the glasses” Uraraka asked

“ wanting a job, and being suited to it are quite different things, observing the Iida family's hero agency has taught me that much” Iida said

“Agency? What does your family do?” Uraraka asks

“Oh, it’s nothing!” Iida defends

“You know I’ve been wondering something about you! Admit it, Iida! You’re filthy rich!” Uraraka accuses.

“Ah. I was afraid people would treat me differently if they knew about my family. You see the Iidas have been pro heroes for generations! It runs in our blood.” Iida says

“What? Thats awesome!” uraraka and Lucas say together

“Are the two of you familiar with the pro hero Ingenium?” Iida asks

“He’s a popular pro with like 60 sidekicks. He got an agency in Tokyo, right?” bakugo asks

“Correct! He’s my elder brother!” Iida states

“Your family’s famous!” uraraka says

“Ingenium is an unmatched commander who honors the hero code! As the second oldest Iida son, I strive to be just like him! However, I think it might be a bit soon for me to be in a real leadership role. You, for example, had a plan during the battle exam. Used your knowledge of your opponent to craft something to help you in a fight. You were able to quickly make something that would help while we voted. A rep needs those kinds of skills.” Iida says

“You’ll do fine, wires. Izuku would say the same” bakugo says

“Who’s Izuku?” Iida asks

“Why do you call him wires?” uraraka asks

“Because Circuit is taken by some sh*t vigilante” Bakugo answers causing lucas to laugh

“Who is-” Iida tries to ask again but is cut off by an alarm

“Warning level 3 security breach! All students please evacuate the building in an orderly fashion”

“What’s a level 3 security breach?” Iida asks a nearby upperclassman

“It means that someone has managed to get past the school's Barrier! This hasn't happened in my three years here! We should get going!” the 3rd year explained

The cafeteria bursts into chaos as students run out of it. Iida, uraraka, and bakugo prepare to leave but are confused to see Lucas still sitting in his seat eyes closed fingers on his temples focusing on something.

“Wires what are you doing?” bakugo asks

“Lucas we have to go!” Iida states

“Quiet! Give me space to think! It’s hard to do this while answering question”

After a couple of seconds, lucas opens his eyes, materializes a megaphone, gets up, and runs in the direction of the students. Iida, Uraraka and Bakugo follow behind him.

“I just connected to the school's security system. The Alarm was triggered by the media breaking through the barrier. We aren’t in any danger, the pros are dealing with it. But the panic caused is a problem” Lucas explains

Lucas materializes his grappling hooks and jumps kit. He uses his grapples to get above the crowd, using his jump kit to walk on the walls and grappling to the ledge just above the door everyone is running to. He turns on the megaphone and directs it towards the crowd.

“Listen up! Everything is ok!” Lucas says causing everyone to stop and listen

“The alarm was triggered by the media outside! We are in no danger! Our teachers are handling them! We are UA students! We need to remain calm and prove we are the best of the best!”

After lucas finished the crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief as most of them began looking outside to notice the reporters.

“The police are here!”

“Thank goodness”

“That’s a wrap! Get these vultures out of our station” Present Mic said being heard by the crowd securing the fact that they are safe.

In class

“Alright, we need to figure out who the other officers will be,” Lucas said starting up class

MEANWHILE with the Midnight, 13, recovery girl, and Principle Nedzu

“How were normal members of the press able to bypass our security systems? Someone else must’ve been behind this. Some villain must’ve actually been able to infiltrate our school. But was this purely a show of power, or a declaration of war?” Nedzu asks

MEANWHILE with Izuku and co

“I just got a message from Lucas. He says somehow the ordinary press got past UA's security barrier. From what he could see it was turned into literal dust. Additionally, Lucas mentioned spotting someone wearing all black, and minus a few extra hands, matched a description of Shigaraki. Whatever the LOV is doing I think it’s happening soon.” Izuku said

“So they will be attacking during school hours! We need to switch from helping All Might to protecting those kids!” Travis states

“ Wait does that mean we’re gonna meet that bakugo kid?” toga asks

“That’s what you’re worried about? Toga seriously, never mind. We will wait intel we get the notice that we’re being shipped out, we will message Lucas when we do. Keep comms open between us we might end up separated” Travis said
“Right!”

Back at UA in hero basics

“Today's training will be a little different. You’ll have three instructors. Me, All Might, and another Faculty member will be keeping tabs on you.” Aizawa explains

“Sir! What kind of training is this?” Sero asks

“Rescue! You’ll be dealing with natural disasters, shipwrecks, stuff like that.” Aizawa explains

“Sounds like we’re in for a big workout” Kaminari notes

“Totally” Mina comments

“Real hero stuff! It separates the men from the boys! I’m shaking with excitement!” Kirishima says

“Finally I’ll get to show off How good I am in the water, ribbit” Tsu claims

“Guys, I’m not finished yet, what you wear in this exercise is up to you. I know you’re excited about costumes. But keep in mind that you're not used to them yet, and they might limit your abilities. This special training is at an off-campus facility so we’ll be taking a bus to get there. That’s all start getting ready” Aizawa says pressing a button on a remote to open the costume lockers

After everyone has gotten ready they meet outside. Lucas and Momo load the class onto the bus and they set off.

“I’ve been wanting to point something out, but I haven’t had to chance to. Say Lucas isn’t your power similar to that vigilante Circuit? Specifically, the way you materialize things?” tsu asks

“Um, I don’t know about that Tsu. I mean the quirk I have has been passed down through generations. My dad has a similar version, and so did my granddad. It’s possible this Circuit guy is some distant relative. I do have to admit. I did steal the idea to use a bow and arrow from him.” Lucas nervously explained

“Whether you are or aren’t a secret vigilante, it’s an awesome quirk you have. A lot of flashy stuff can be done with it. My hardening is super strong and can destroy bad guys in a fight but it doesn’t look all that impressive” Kirishima said demoing his quirk

“Nah man, I think it looks awesome. Totally pro material” Lucas said
“You really think so? It seems like it’d be easier to be a popular hero if I had something flashier” Kirishima said

“My navel lasers got the perfect combination of panash and strength,” Aoyama stated

“But it’s way lame if it gives you a stomach ache, sweetie” Mina explained

“Well if any of our classmates have pro quirks, it’s todoroki and bakugo,” Kirishima says

“Yeah, well bakugo is always angry so he’ll never be popular,” tsu notes

“He’s not always angry, just co*cky as f*ck” Lucas corrects

“You take that back wires or I’ll end you!” bakugo threats

“Stop messing around, we’re here,” Aizawa says

“Yes sir,” the class says together

After the bus parks and the class exits, they pile up in front of the testing facility.

“Hello everyone! I’ve been waiting for you.” 13 greets

The class awes over meeting another amazing hero.

“I can’t wait to show you what's inside,” 13 says

The class makes their way in with most of them expressing their awe at how large the place is.

“Holy crap, it looks like some kind of amusem*nt park: Kirishima compares

“A shipwreck, a landslide, a fire, a wind storm, etc! I created this training facility to prepare you for different types of disasters. I call it the Unforeseen Simulation Joint! But you can call it USJ!” 13 explains

“Just like Universal Studio Japan” the class notes

Aizawa pulls 13 aside to discuss the missing All Might

“Clocks ticking, we should get started” Aizawa suggests

“Excellent, before we begin let me just say one thing, well maybe two things, possibly three, four, or 5” 13 trails before the class says “we get it”

“Listen carefully, I’m sure you are aware that I have a powerful quirk. It’s called blackhole. I can use it to suck up anything and turn it into dust” 13 explains

“Yeah! You’ve used it to save people from all kinds of disasters!” uraraka says

“That’s true, but my quirk could also be very easily used to kill! Some of you also have powers that could be dangerous. In our superhuman society, all quirks are certified and stridently regulated so we often overlook how unsafe they actually can be! Please do forget that if you lose focus or make the wrong move, your powers can be deadly. Even if you’re trying to do something virtuous like rescue someone. Thanks to Aizawa's fitness tests you have a solid idea of your quirk's potential. And because of All Might combat training, you likely experience how dangerous your powers can be when used against other people. Carry those lessons over to this class, today you’re gonna learn how to use your quirks to save people's lives. You won’t be using your powers to attack enemies or each other, only to help. After all, that’s what being a hero is all about, ensuring the safety of others! That’s all I have to say! Thank you so much for listening.” 13 explained

“Right now that that is over” Aizawa is cut off by the lights in the USJ flickery and the sound of a phone going off. The class notices it immediately and Lucas checks his phone.

“Uh, Mr, Aizawa?” Lucas says trying to get Mr. Aizawa’s attention

In the middle of the USJ by the fountain and black and purple mist opens that Aizawa turns to look at. It explodes open into a massive cloud as a hand reaches out of it.

“Stay together and don’t move! 13! Protect the students!” Aizawa commands

“What is that thing?” Kirishima asks

“Oh we are so f*cked” Lucas notes

“Wait has the training started already? I thought we were rescuing people.” Kirishima says

“ Stay back! This is real those are villains!” Aizawa warns as he puts on his goggles

“The only real heroes I see are Eraserhead and 13. Perplexing, the schedule we retrieved from UA said All Might should be here.” Kurogiri says

“So you scumbags used the press as a cover and sneaked onto campus” Aizawa deduced

“Where is he? I went through the trouble of bringing so many friends who are eager to meet him. They want All Might, the great symbol of peace. I can’t believe he’s not here! Maybe if I kill a few kids he’ll come out to play” Shigaraki said

“What? Real villains? No way! How could so many of them get into a UA facility this secure?” Kirishima asked

“Yeah, 13 why aren’t the alarms going off?” Momo asked

“Good question I'm not sure.” 13 answered

“Is the entire campus under attack, or is this only target? Either way, if the alarms sensors aren’t being triggered then one of these villains has a quirk that’s masking their presence here. They carefully chose this isolated facility as an entry point at a time when a class was being taught. They’re fools for trespassing here, but they thought this out. Whatever their plan they must have a concrete objective in mind. But what is it? ” todoroki asked

“This is their only target. They wanted All Might and thought he’d be here.” Lucas said causing everyone to turn to him seeing him in his pilot gear from the battle exam

“How do you know that?” Kaminari asked

“Long-range mics built into my suit, I materialized it the second they showed up. The guy with the hands all over him was whining about how All Might wasn’t here. How maybe if he killed a couple of kids All Might would come out to play. I think they came here to kill him” Lucas Explain

“13 get them out of here! And alert the main campus! Actually, if they got the ability to block our sensor then they might be jamming our regular communications too. Kaminari, Lucas use try using your quirks to contact the school” Aizawa commands

“Yes sir” Lucas and Kaminari respond

“How do plan to take these guys out? Your fighting style isn’t best suited for this kind of fight, even if you nullify their quirks!” Lucas asks

“You can’t be a pro if you’ve only got one trick! I’ll leave it to you 13” Aizawa responds before leaping into action. He immediately begins taking out low-level villain after low-level villain.

“There he goes trying to intimidate us. He is strong and since he’s hiding behind those goggles, you can’t tell whose quirk he’s erasing. He’s making it hard for us to work together or rely on each other's powers. How annoying. The worse thing about dealing with pros is when they live up to all their hype” Shigaraki says talking with Cheshire, Impulse, and Silver Rabbit

“You got that right. Say this is class 1A right? There’s a student I’d like to beat. Blond hair, explosive personality. Why don’t I go blow off some steam? Kurogiri?” Izuku suggests

“Be my guest” Shigaraki says
Eraserhead catches a glimpse of Impulse and Co as they warp gate out of the area. He’s confused as to what he saw not even sure if he saw it correctly. He also scolds himself for letting the Warp villain get away.

Near the Entrance to the USJ kurogiri stops the classes path

“There is no escape for you! It’s a pleasure to meet you. We are the League of Villians! I know it’s impolite, but we decided to invite ourselves into this haven of justices to say hello. Besides isn’t this a fitting place for All Might the Symbol of peace, to take his last breath? I believe he was supposed to be here today yet I see no sign of him. There must have been some sort of change in plans we could not have foreseen.” Kurogiri monologs

Kirishima and bakugo jump in for an attack but it does nothing to Kurogiris mist body.

“You live up to your school's reputation, but you should be more careful children. Now, which students do you want to remove from the playing board?” kurogiri asked confusing everyone

Cheshire, Silver Rabbit, and Impulse walked out of the mist.

“As I said, give me the explosive blond” Impulse said pointing a sword at bakugo

“Impulse?? What are you doing with the villains?” bakugo asked confused

“ I want someone cute! Over there! The frog girl!” Cheshire says pointing a knife at tsu

“Wait, why does your voice sound familiar?” Uraraka asks Cheshire causing her and Impulse to gasp

Finally, Silver rabbit points a sword at Momo “give me that one”

“Confirmed I will spread you around this facility to meet my comrades and your doom!” Kurogiri says covering the crowd in a dome of mist that 13, uraraka, Iida, shoji. Mina, sero, and Sato escape from.

Chapter 7: Is that.. is that BT?

Chapter Text

In the shipwreck zone, Lucas is propelled onto the boat. Tsu and Mineta later join lucas asking what happened.

“Tsuyu Asui, her quirk, Frog, it’s pretty self-explanatory, she can do anything a frog can” Present Mic as Narrator

“A shark-like villain almost ate Mineta.” Tsu answering

“ what do you think is happening to the rest of our classmates?” Lucas asks

“~I don’t know, but I do know what's gonna happen to you~,” Cheshire says as she appears in front of the three

“AH, Villian! Please don’t hurt me,” Mineta screams

“Mineta, are you sure being a hero is the right path for you?” Lucas asked

“You the one who pointed to me. What do you want?” tsu asked

“Chill guys, Cheshire ain't gonna bother us,” Lucas states

“How do you know that, ribbit?” Tsu asked

“Well, tsu, I may or may not be working with these vigilantes”

“What?!” Mineta and Tsu say together

“Cheshire status report please,” Lucas asks

“ Your class has been scattered across the facility. They don’t know your quirks so you can surprise them. The leader's name is Tomura Shigaraki, he can decay things with his quirk. Kurogiri can obviously teleport. There’s a guy who can jam signals and This weird bird dude Shigaraki said was “made to kill All Might” whatever that means” Cheshire explained

“Thanks, we need to get out of here and help the others, give me a minute to materialize something to help us”

“Lucas, would you please explain what the heck is going on here?! I'm freaking out!” Mineta asked

“Cheshire you have my permission to kill the purple guy, he's not a hero,” Lucas said jokingly

“Lucas!” Mineta yelled

“He’s not worth my time, plus he’s not even cute,” Cheshire responded

“Lucas, could you please explain, ribbit?” tsu asked
“Basically Impulse, Cheshire, and Silver Rabbit learned of an attack on All Might. A plan to kill him, you were right earlier on the bus, I am Circuit. I wasn’t planning on telling anyone but f*ck it. I was recruited to help them due to my quirk. We couldn’t learn much about the League of Villian's plans and even after the three of them went undercover to join try and get more information. They couldn’t learn anything till today. And when they did they messaged me trying to warn me. It was too late so they went for plan B. Split up and warn key individuals, Cheshire got me, Impulse needs to warn Bakugo, and Rabbit will be warning Momo.” Lucas explained

“How did you have this all planned from the start?” Mineta asked

“We didn’t I came up with this specific plan today. We thought LOV was gonna fight All Might in public, not at UA, now be quiet and let me concentrate ” Lucas continued

Meanwhile, with Momo, Jiro, and Kaminari in the rockslide zone, the three face off against a crowd of villains, surrounded, they arm up on weapons made by Momo.

“AHHH! These dudes are terrifying! My whole life just flashed before my eyes, I think I saw the grim reaper! What’s going on?” Kaminari said terrified

“Could you maybe take it down a few notches?” Jiro asked

“Right now we need to focus on getting away from these enemies,” Momo said

“Then pull out a weapon for me too” Kaminiari suggested

“You the one with electrical powers! Just zap em so we can run!” Jiro suggested

“Were you not paying attention during combat training? Some partner you were! I can cover my body with electricity, but if I try to shoot it out it will go everywhere! I’d take you guys down with them, or did you want shock treatment today? I can’t even call for help because there’s still interference jamming the sign! I’m counting on your two! I'm no help in this situation! You’ve gotta get us out of here! Please!” Kaminari explained

“You’re a real damsel in distress aren't you” Jiro noted

A voice calls out telling the villains to back off.

Silver Rabbit appears with a sword in his hand He creates a wall of metal surrounding him and the heroes. Jiro goes for an attack that is blocked by Rabbit. He sends her back with Momo standing her ground ready for an attack. Rabbit points his sword at Momo.

“Momo Yaoyorozu, you are needed,” he says

“What?” Kaminari asks

“What are you talking about?” Jiro asks

“I am the Silver Rabbit, I’ve come here on an undercover mission to stop the assassination of All Might. I have been informed by your classmate Lucas that you are one of the smartest students here.”

“Why should we believe you?” Jiro asks

Rabbit absorbs his sword
“You have no reason to believe me, but what I say is the truth. ” Silver Rabbit said before Sitting on his knees.

“I believe you,” Momo said

“What?” Kaminari and Jiro said together

“You believe him? Momo he could be lying” Jiro warned

“I don’t think he is.” momo assured

“We are tasked with taking out the villains in this sector, what we really need to accomplish is the re-establishment of communication. The villain blocking them is nearby” Rabbit explained

“Alright, how would we defeat him?” Jiro asked

“We must first draw him out. Clearing the sector will accomplish that. But we must do it in a timely manner. That is why Lucas asked me to get yaoyorozus help. He believes you know what to do” rabbit explains

“I think I have a plan, but it will take some time to make what we need. Let's hold them off for now” Momo Explained

“Thank you for your cooperation,” Rabbit said before forming two blades, handing one to Kaminari, and dropping the wall.

MEANWHILE in the collapse zone, Bakugo and Kirishima take out low-level thug after low-level thug.

“Say goodbye!” Bakugo says as sends an explosive punch toward the villain.

Kirishima uses his hardening quirk to punch a villain out and the two take a small breather.

“I think that’s the last of these guys. Bunch of low-level rent-a-thugs” Bakugo says

“Alright, let's go find the rest of our class. If we are still in the USJ then they must be too. And not all of them have the offensive skills we do.” Kirishima says

“If you wanna going track down our class then find, I’m gonna go fight the warpy bastard,” Bakguo says

“What? Our physical attack did nothing to the guy!” Kirishima noted

“I’m gonna take him down cuz he there way in and out! There has to be a way to harm him. And I'm gonna find it! If I take him down they’ll be stuck here and have to pay for what they did!” Bakugo says

A villain with a chameleon quirk tries to sneak attack Bakugo but he quickly stops him with an explosion.

“If all these villains are small fries like these guys then our classmates can handle them,” Bakugo explains

“That reaction time is insane!” Kirishima notes

“ Damn I didn’t even have to ask you to take down Kurogiri. You were gonna do it all on your own.” Impulse says causing the two of them to look at the doorway he’s leaning against.

“You!” Bakugo says before launching himself towards Impulse grabbing him and pinning him to a wall.

“Move and I’ll blow you to hell!” Bakugo claims

“Listen! I know you're mad, but I’m not a villain! I only join the League to figure out what they were trying to do!” Impulse says trying to defend himself

“I'm not an Idiot, Impulse! I figure you were undercover!” Bakugo says

“Then can you let me go?” Impulse pleaded

Bakugo leans in closer with a whisper and asks “Why didn’t you tell me the truth of what happened to Izuku?”

“Would it have a made a difference? You would still have blamed yourself” Impulse responded

Bakugo backs off

“Izuku died because of your friends. They attacked him because of your influence. Even if he didn’t kill himself. You would’ve continued to blame yourself for his death.” Impulse explained

“Um, I don’t know what's going but it sounds pretty person so I'm gonna leave,” Kirishima says

“We don’t have time to linger on the past. We need to take out kurogiri” impulse says

Back with Momo and Co

“ It’s ready,” Momo says sliding near Rabbit and Jiro the back of her hero suit breaking out and releasing a massive sheat that covers the three

“A blanket?” a villain says confused

“Is it supposed to be a shield?” A villain asks mockingly

“You’re looking at a sheet of insulation 100 millimeters thick. Go kaminari!” Momo explains

“Badass! Now I don’t have to worry about hurting my friends! You guys are fried!” Kaminari says releasing massive amounts of electricity that knock out the villains in the area

Momo lifts the sheet to check the damage

“Now then, I’m worried about the rest of our class” Momo notes

“Miss Yaoyorozu, your chest is exposed” Silver Rabbit notes covering his eyes with his left hand, and manipulating his scarf with his right. His scarf flies off him and wraps around Momo covering her.

“Oh, thanks for that. I can make some new clothes” Momo says

“That scarf is a lot like Mr. Aizawas. What is it?” Jiro asks as she and Rabbit leaves the cover of the sheet

“My quirk allows me to make and control a metal alloy. The scarf is made of threads of that alloy, similar to how Eraserhead, Aizawa’s scarf is also made from strong metal. He controls it due to training while mine is just manipulated by my quirk.” Rabbit explains
“Alright I’m done, here’s your scarf back,” Momo says

Rabbit manipulates his scarf melting the metal into a ball, combining it with the metal that forms his armor. He then throws the ball of metal at a villain crawling out of the ground. It contains the villain, pulling him out of the ground.

“Hey! Hey! What are you doing? Weren’t you on our side?” The Villian asks

“ Your leader is really stupid if he honestly believed impulse tricks from the start” Rabbit explains as he brings the villain to the ground cuffing his arms and legs, reforming the excess metal into armor and his scarf. Rabbit then forms a bat and knocks out the villain.

“Crap, Kaminari is drained because of his quirk, he can’t contact the Heros yet” Jiro points out

“We’ll just have to make out way towards the entrance. The rest of our class must be heading in that direction” Momo says

Meanwhile, in the shipwreck zone, water-based villains surround the boat.

“Lucas, they’re getting impatient, and so am I,” Cheshire says over comms

“I’m almost done, everyone gets down here” Lucas responds

Cheshire, Tsu, and Mineta head into the inners of the ship to see the tech Lucas was materializing. A Massive robotic mech suit that was just about done.

“Woah! What is that thing?” Mineta asked in amazement

The creation finishes materialization and turns on

“I am BT-7274, but you can call me BT.” The creation responds

“Woah, cool it talks!” Cheshire points out

“Holy smokes! Did you seriously just make BT from Titanfall 2?” Mineta asks

“Of course, God would curse me with having something in common with you” Lucas comments

“BT, Northstar loadout, prepare for neral link” Lucas commands

“Loadout selected, embark when ready, pilot” BT responds opening up the front hatch, lucas climbs in.

They hear the sounds of the villains walking on the deck of the boat.
“Whatever you doing Lucas, you better hurry up” Cheshire urges

“Neral link achieved, flight core activated,” BT says

“Grab on BT, I promise you’ll be fine,” Lucas says

On the upper side of the ship, the villains are looking around, and just as one of them makes their way towards the door downwards the ship explodes open as BT flies out.

“What the hell is that?”

“The ships going down!”

“I’m caught in debris!”

“Is that BT?”

The group lands on the edge of the shipwreck zone. Tsu, Mineta, and Cheshire jump off BT and land in the water. They realize they are close to Eraserhead's fight with the villains and decide to make their way over there to watch.

MEANWHILE with 13, some of class A, 13 is using blackhole to turn the mist of Kurogiri into dust.

“Ah, blackhole, the quirk that sucks up the matter and turns it to dust. Such an astounding power, however, you’re a rescue hero, 13, skilled at saving people from disasters, consequently that means you have little fighting experience or battlefield awareness” Kurogiri said, creating a warpgate behind 13 causing her quirk to start damaging her costume

“Ah, he opened a warp gate!” 13 exclaimed

“ How unfortunate, you’ve turned yourself into dust!” Kurogiri gloats

“I'm sorry, he got me” 13 apologized, turning off her quirk and falling to the ground

“13!” mina cried

“Iida! Get out of here! Go! now!” sato urged

Iida uses his quirk, running for the door.

“A sheep trying to escape from the wolves? I simply can’t allow that! If other heroes arrive it will be hard for us to put an end to All Might!” Kurogiri said making a gate infront of Iida

Iida prepared to dodge the gate when Shoji jumped in and tackled him allowing Iida to continue.

“Run! I’ve got him!” Shoji says

“You impertinent child! You won’t step a foot outside those doors!” Kurogiri said extending a part of himself towards Iida. Meanwhile, Ochaco notices a piece of solid armor on Kurogiri.

“ I have no time for this! Begone” Kurogiri said catching up to Iida.

Kurogiri is stopped as Ochaco uses her quirk on the armor to lift kurogiri.

“I don’t know what his quirk is! But he is wearing some kind of weird armor! So he must have a physical body inside here somewhere!” Uraraka said throwing Kurogiri into the air, dragging him away from Iida.
“You pest! How dare you!” Kurogiri exclaims

Kurogiri tries to fly toward Iida by the armor is grabbed by Seros tape and Sato uses his strength to grab onto that tape and throw Kurogiri away, allowing Iida to make it through the doors.

“He’s going to call for back up, It’s over” Kurogiri declares

MEANWHILE, Lucas and co make their way closer to Eraserhead, watching him take on villain after villain. Shigaraki beings running towards Eraser.

“Final boss!” Eraser notes throwing his capture scarf towards Shigaraki, the latter catching it while still running towards Eraser. Once eraser got close he elbowed Shigaraki in the chest, and the two locked in a struggling one-on-one battle.

“ it was hard to see while you were jumping around, but I found you’re tell, it’s your hair. When it drops it means you’ve stopped using your quirk you’re having to blink more often. Don’t push yourself too hard now, you might just fall apart. Wouldn’t that be a shame?” Shigaraki says disintegrating part of Aizawa's elbow. Eraserhead quickly gets out of that position and away from Shigraki. He’s attacked by more low-level villains that he dodges.

“That annoying quirk of yours isn’t suited for drawn-out fights against big groups is it? Don’t you think you’re a little out of your element here, Eraserhead? You’re much better at working stealthy, you’re none for surprise attacks, not fighting head to head. But despite knowing that you didn’t hesitate to jump into the middle of this fight. To put your students at ease.” Shigaraki monologs

Random villains attack him and he quickly gets rid of them even one arm injured.

“And look at you, you’re still standing! You really are so cool! Oh and by the way hero! I am not the final boss” Shigraki says as the bird thing appears behind Aizawa, it goes in for an attack but is tackled by BT. After the two get up and stand face to face shigaraki asks
“Wait a minute is that BT? How is this possible?”

BT grabs his xo-16 riffle and loads the Nomu with bullets, each one just being absorbed. Each attack BT makes is just absorbed by the Nomu, it is not even attacking.

“What do you think of him Eraser? He’s the bio-engineered, Anti-symbol of peace. But you can call him Nomu” Shigaraki explains

BT forms his predator canon and continues attacking the nomu. The nomu goes in for an attack, knocking the weapon out of BT's hands. BT forms a thermal shield and begins melting the flesh of the Nomu. The Nomu rips the arm off of BT before backing away to heal all the damage. Lucas disembarks from BT before saying “BT Nuclear Detention!”

BT tackles the nomu grabbing its still healing body before flying into the sky and exploding.

“No! No! No! My Nomu!” Shigaraki whines

Pieces of BT start to fall, Aizawa tackling Lucas to save him from one.

“Kid what are you doing here? I told 13 to get you guys out of here!” Aizawa asked

“The warp dude spread the class throughout the Building,” Lucas explained

Lucas noticed something falling from the top of the USJ and asked “What is that?”

A still regenerating Nomu lands in front of Shagraki, the latter giggling with excitement.

“This is an achievement I didn’t even know existed! Nomu survives a self-detonating Titan. Quite the feat, in my opinion,” Shigraki says

Aizawa stands in front of Lucas but the Nomu swats him away. Lucas backs away from the Nomu, trying to escape but the Nomu grabs onto his head and crushes it.

“NO!” Aizawa cries

“Lucas!” Mineta cries

Lucas’s body falls to the ground with a metal thunk. It causes everyone to think twice about his death. The hologram surrounding his body dissipates revealing a robotic Spector that was pretending to be him.

“A specter too? Who is this person? Why do they keep using titanfall gear?” Shigaraki asks

“The name is Lucas Lycan, and I use Titanfall equipment because it’s cool,” Lucas said popping out of a Black and white tear behind shigaraki, holding his bow and firing an arrow towards him. Shigaraki turns towards Lucas catching the arrow and disintegrating it. Lucas holds out a remote, and pressed a button causing 4 turrets to uncloak and lock onto Shigaraki.

“Sentry turrets too? You are really starting to annoy me!” Shagaraki whines

“You’re just lucky I didn’t make any Ticks,” Lucas says

The nomu quickly destroys all four turrets before going to attack Lucas who jumps into another tear

Kurogiri shows up by Shigaraki
“Tomura Shigaraki” He greets

“Kurogiri, Did you manage to kill 13?” Shigaraki asks

“The rescue hero is out of commission, but there were students I was unable to disperse and one of them got outside of the facility” Kurogiri explained

Shigaraki began to get nervous, scratching at his next before scolding Kurogiri
“Kurogiri you fool! If you weren’t our warpgate I’d tear apart every last atom in your body!”
Shagraki takes a breath, stopping the scratching
“There is no way we can win if dozens of pros show up to stop us. It’s game over, back to the title screen. And I was looking forwards to finishing this today. Damnit, all those months of gathering villains wasted. Let’s go home” Shigaraki says

With Mineta, Tsu, and Cheshire

“Did I hear that right? Did he say that there going just leave?” Mineta asked

“Thats what it sounded like to me,” Tsu said

“Yes. That’s amazing! We’re safe so we don’t have to fight!” Mineta said hugging tsu

“Yeah, but something doesn’t seem right,” Tsu said shoving Mineta underwater

“It’s weird that they would leave at this point, even if help is on the way” Cheshire notes

Lucas appears in a rift behind the group

“Oh, and before we leave, let’s make sure the Symbol of peace is broken. Let’s wreck his pride, let’s make this hurt!” Shagraki said swiftly running towards the group of students hands outstretched to disintegrate Tsu, nothing happens

Shigaraki turns to Eraserhead, sitting up recovering from the slap but still strong enough to eraser Shigraki's quirk.

Lucas quickly grabs onto Mineta, tsu, and Cheshire, pulling them into a tear and leaving behind a tick that jumps at Shigaraki, the Nomu quickly running in and blocking the explosion.

Near Aizawa Impulse rises from the ground. At the same time Chesire, Tsu, Mineta, and Lucas emerge from a tear near Aizawa. Lucas and Tsu try to help Aizawa up.

“Impulse? Cheshire? You betray me? Of course, you hero imitater would pull something like this! Was what you said about All Might even true?” Shigaraki asked

“Oh it was true, I'm just not gonna hold a grudge over something like that. Especial since he apologized afterward” Impulse reveals

“Kid? *cough* I thought I saw you earlier. What are you doing here?” Aizawa asked

“Eraser, I’ll answer questions later. Right now we need to-” Impulse is cut off by a loud boom coming from the front entrance. The group looks at the top of the staircase to see All Might, with an angered look, emerge from a cloud of smoke.

“Ah! Looks like our game is getting a continue” Shigaraki says

“I couldn’t shake the feeling that something had gone wrong here when Aizawa and 13 didn’t answer my calls. So I hurried over, receiving an SOS message from Young Lucas around the same time I ran into Young Iida. Iida told me of the Villainy at work here! Have no fear students! Because I am here!” All Might announces

“After all this waiting, the heroic piece of trash shows up!” Shigaraki says

Random villains still standing in awe at All Might's appearance, some gloating about how they can finally kill him. All Might swiftly take all of them out before he quickly makes his way over to Eraserhead and Co picking up Aizawa, Tsu, Mineta, and Cheshire while also knocking off the handing covering Shigarakis face. Lucas disappears into a tear while Impulse sinks into the floor. All Might drop them off at the staircase. Impulse and Lucas appear nearby.

“What the heck!?” Mineta said marveling at All Might's speed

“Everybody back to the entrance. Help Aizawa get there” All Might commands

“No no no. it wasn’t supposed to go this way! He’s still fast, father. Somehow he managed to hit me.” Shigaraki said picking up the hand and putting it back on.

“Of course, a government hero relies on violence. I wasn’t prepared. I couldn’t even see him when he moved. But he’s not as fast as I thought he would be. Not as fast as he use to be, I guess it’s true after all, All Might really is getting weaker” Shigaraki says

“All Might you can’t! I hit that brain guy with a “nuclear” detenation and he came right back.” Lucas explain

“Young Lucas! I’ve got this!” All Might reassures

Tsu, Lucas, and Mineta help carry Aizawa away. While Impulse and Cheshire Notice Silver Rabbit with Momo, Jiro, and Denki. The Vigilantes direct the students to join their classmates in helping Aizawa.

All Might goes toe to toe with the Nomu.

“It doesn’t matter where I hit you it has no effect” All Might notes

“That’s cause Nomu here, has shock absorption, The only way you are gonna hurt him is to slowly gouge out his flesh, of course, I don’t think he’s going to sit back and let you do that. You’ve finally met your match!” Shigaraki explains

“Ha! Thanks for telling me how to beat him! All I have to do is were him down! Then it’s on to you!” All Might says suplexing the nomu causing an explosion that creates a cloud of dust blocking the result. When the dust sets the result is to be revealed that Nomu was slammed partially into a warp gate that opened under All Might allowing the Nomu to grab All Might right at the sides.

“Nice, you were trying to bury him in the concrete so he couldn’t move around anymore. Sorry, that won’t work. Nomu is as strong as you are, that won’t stop him. Nice work Kurogiri, we got him right where we want him now.” Shigaraki said

All Might let go of the Nomu to try and remove his grip. “If this is the best you got then you should just give up now!” All Might says

“Kurogiri” Shigaraki says annoyed

“Normally I wouldn’t want blood and viscera flooding the inside of my warp gates, but I’ll make an exception for a hero as great as you! Since you are too fast to see with the human eye, Nomu had to restrain you. And once he pulls your body through, I’ll squeeze the gates shut! I am going to enjoy tearing you to pieces” Kurogiri explains

Impulse runs towards the fight, pulling out his sword and going for Shigaraki. Kurogiri Appears in front of him, opening up a gate, but Bakugo flies in creating an Explosion and grabbing onto the armor piece using it to pin Kurogiri to the ground.

“Took you long enough!” Impulse said

“Impulse you bastard! You left us!” Bakugo responded

A patch of ice forms freezing half of the Nomu. Todoroki announces his presence

“One of your poorly trained thugs says you’re here because you think you can kill All Might,” Todoroki says

All Might is now able to loosen the Nomus grip, escaping and landing by Todoroki.

Kirhisma jumps in and goes in for an attack on Shigaraki but he dodges.
“Damn, and that was gonna be cool!” Kirishima complains

“Guess I found your body that time you smoky bastard!” Bakugo gloats

“The symbol of peace will not be defeated by delinquents like you,” Todoroki stated

At the top of the stairs, Uraraka notices Tsu and co carrying Aizawa

“ wait, is that tsu down there? Hey! We’re all up here!” Uraraka said calling out to the group

“Hey wait a minute, are those two of the villains who singled out someone us?” sato asks

Once the group combined, shoji, sero, and sato were wary of Cheshire and Silver Rabbit.

“Hey what are these villains doing here?” Sero asks

“They aren’t villains, they are vigilantes who went undercover in the league of villains to stop their plot to assassinate All Might. Although it did not go as planned” Momo explained

“Yeah! And get this, Lucas was working with them! He’s the vigilante circuit!” Mineta says

“What?!” the group of students exclaims

“I knew it” Aizawa weakly claims

“Speaking of Lucas, where is he? Wasn’t he with us?” Tsu asks

“ sh*t did he go back to help them?” Rabbit asks
“I don’t know I didn’t see him leave” Cheshire responds

“Hey wait a minute, I recognize your voice. You’re toga! The girl who saved me from the mall! And that kid with the sword was Hiro! And your their friend who kept reminding them you had somewhere better to be!” Uraraka claims

“It’s nice that someone as cute as you remembers me!” Toga responded

“I did not mean it like that! We had to meet, well actually that was the first day we met lucas in person” Silver Rabbit responds

“Speaking of, he’s back” Jiro points out as Lucas walks out of another tear

“Sorry for disappearing I had to retrieve something,” Lucas said

“Is that BTs DataCore?” Mineta asks

“Please stop showing your knowledge of titanfall, it disgusts me, but yes it is” lucas responds

“What does it do?” Cheshire asked

“The neural link process that allows me to connect to a titan is annoying to repeat every time I make him. Retrieve the core and making it permanent before it dematerialized will allow me to skip the part of the process, and will give me quicker access to his blueprints seeing as they are stored on the core.” Lucas said dematerializing his pilot gear.

Down with the remaining villains, the battle has reached a stand still waiting for shigaraki's response.

“ Kurogiri, How could you let this brat get the best of you? You’ve gotten us into a real jam here.” Shigaraki scolds

“Heh, you got careless you dumb villain. It wasn’t hard to figure you out. Only certain parts of you turn into that smoking warp gate, you use that mist to hide your body as a kind of distraction think that makes you safe. That’s why we missed it. But if you didn’t have a body you wouldn’t be wearing the neck armor, right? You’re not immune to physical attacks if they are well aimed” Bakugo explained

Kurogiri tries to get free but Bakugo sends a series of small explosions to keep him down
“ You try anything funny and I’ll blow your ass up so bad that they’ll be piecing you back together for weeks” Bakguo threatens

“Oh, that doesn’t sound very heroic!” Kirishima notes

“They escape uninjured and captured my two strongest men. Kids these days really are amazing. They make the league of villains look like amateurs, can’t have that. Nomu” Shigaraki says

The Nomu makes groaning noises before moving out of the warp gate, the ice-covered portions of its body breaking off.

“How is that thing still moving? It’s all messed up!” Impulse asked

“Stay back everybody! What is this? I thought you said his power was shock absorption?” All Might asked as the Nomu regrew its limbs

“ I didn’t say that was his only quirk! He also has super regeneration. Nomu has been modified to take you on even at one hundred percent of your power! He’s basically a highly efficient punching bag that hits back. First, we need to free our method of escape. Get him Nomu” Shigaraki says

The nomu moves at fast speeds that only All Might can see. A large crash and cloud of smoke conceals what occurred as it clears the nomu is seen with Kurogiri in his hand.

“Bakugo?!” Impulse asks before noticing him on the ground next to him.

“Woah, what the f*ck? How’d you get there?” impulse asks

“ It’s it obvious?” Shotos says pointing to All Might who had crashed into a wall during the collision

“So he protected the child, huh?” Shigaraki asks

“These are kids and you didn’t hold back?” All Might asks

“I didn’t have much choice, he was threatening my companion. Besides these kids are no angels-” Shigaraki explains but is cut off by Impulse

“Can’t be an angel when your a god” impulse responds

“ You heroes think you can get away with being ass violent as you want if you say it’s for the sake of others. But you know what All Might? That pisses me off. Why do people get to decide that some violent acts are heroic and others are villainous? Casting judge as to what’s good and what's evil. You think that you’re the symbol of peace? Ha! You’re just another government-sponsored instrument of violence. And violence always breeds more violence, I’ll make sure the world understands that once you’re dead.” Shigaraki monologs

“You are nothing but a lunatic, criminals like you. You always try to make your actions sound noble. But admit it, you are only doing this because you like it! Isn’t that right?” All might calls out

“We’ve got them outnumbered” Shoto notes

“Bakugos found the mist guys weakness” Impulse adds

“These dudes may act really tough, but we can take them down now with All Might's help. Let's do this” Kirishima says

“Don’t attack, get out of here” All Might commands

“You would’ve been in trouble earlier if it weren’t for me remember? You need our help” Todoroki comments

“I thank you for your assistance, but this is different. It’s gonna be alright, just sit back and watch a pro at work” All Might assures giving them a thumbs up

“ Nomu, Kurogiri, kill him I’ll deal with the children. Let’s clear this level and go home” Shigaraki commands

Shigaraki charges toward the kids, but All Might attacks the nomu creating a massive amount of wind and pushing everyone back.

“Weren’t you listening? One of his powers is shock absorption!” Shigaraki reminds

“Yeah? What about it?” All Might said continuing to trade blows with the beast, each punch creating more and more wind pushing everyone back.

“No! I can’t get close” Kurogiri informs

“He said your power was shock absorption, not nullification, meaning there is a limit as to how much you can take right!?” All Might notes

All Might continues to fight the beast, dragging the fight throughout the area, damaging the ground, and fighting in the air. Finally, he throws the beast to the ground and says

“You may have heard these words before! But I'll teach you what they really mean! GO BEYOND, PLUS ULTRA!”

All Might sends a punch so powerful it sends the Nomu flying, crashing through the USJ’s dome and causing the USJ to shake.

“That was like the finishing move in a video! He beat the shock absorption right out of him! I’ve never seen that kind of brute strength!” Kirishima says

“Imagine having power like that. He must have been punching that monster so fast he couldn’t regenerate” Bakugo said

“ I really have gotten weaker! Back in my heyday, five hits would’ve been enough to knock that guy out! But today it took more than 300 mighty blows! You’ve been bested villains! Surrender! We all want to get over with this quickly! “ All Might says

“He cheated. Oh, come on. What’s going on here? He’s just as strong as he’s always been. Dammit, don’t tell me I was lied to. ” Shigraki says

“What’s wrong? Not attack me? Did you say you were gonna clear this level earlier? Well come and get me if you dare” All Might said causing Shigaraki to back up shivering

“This is intense” Bakugo comments

“As expected, there is no reason for us to fight now, he’ll handle this,” Todoroki assures

“Come on Impulse, we need to regroup with our class and your team,” bakugo says

“Go, I’m staying”

Impulse POV
“He can’t beat them. He’s bluffing, it’s almost hidden by the dust but the steam is there. The steam that is telling for when he about to transform like on the roof.”

“What are you scared of?” All Might asks

Shigaraki increases the intensity of his scratching “If only nomu was here! He’d rush you right now! Pound you into the ground without giving it a second thought!”

“Tomura Shigaraki, do not freit, Look at him, he is definitely weakened! Nomus attacks were successful. He’s on his own, the children are frozen in fear! And look, our underlings are recovering. We likely have a few minutes before the reinforcements arrive. If you and I work together we can do this. We haven’t missed our chance to kill All Might!” Kurogiri says

“Yeah, yeah you’re right, this is it, we have no choice. We have to do it now. I mean the big end boss is right here” Shigaraki says

“I think All Might can handle the main guys. Let's make sure these dudes dont hurt anybody else.” Kirishima says

“Will you be joining us?” todoroki asks Impulse

“No” Impulse says before disappearing into the ground

Shigaraki charges toward All Might, but Impulse jumps from the ground throwing a Knife into shigaraki's leg causing him to fall. Kurogiri flies towards Impulse but impulse takes off his goggles and looks Kurogiri in the eyes and says
“Paranormal Activity, Ghosty nightmares”

Kurogiris falls to the ground groaning in pain, the mist revealing a man in a suit. Impulse swears he saw a solid head with blue hair.

“What did you do to Kurogiri?” Shigaraki asks

Impulse turns around and knees down towards Shigaraki
“He’s reliving his worst memory, whatever that is. Do you want to relive your worst memory?” impulse explains

“I’ll kill you!” Shigaraki yells jumping toward Impulse grabbing him by the face, disintegrating his mask, goggles, and a chuck of his head.

“No! Impulse!” All Might yells

“Hehahahehaha HeHAhAHAHA” Shigaraki laughs as he gets up, and begins stomping on what remains of his head

“Whose a god now?” Shigaraki says before he is shot multiple times

“They’re here!” All Might says

“Sorry, everyone! I know we are a bit late! I but I got the teachers over here as fast as I could!” Nedzu said walking into the USJ with the rest of the Pros

“It’s Iida!” uraraka says

“I have returned! I fulfilled my duty and brought reinforcements!” Iida exclaims

Recovering Villians try to get up the stairs and attack. Present Mic responds with an attack of his own. A “YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH” is weaponized causing all the villains to fall back.
Ectoplasm sends his clones out to knock out a bunch of villains.
“ Our priority is to protect all of our students!” Nedzu commands

“Yes sir”

“Ah man, the pros are here. It's game over for real. Kurogiri! Snap out of it! We need to get out of here.” Shigaraki urges just before Snipe begins loading bullets into shigaraki.

Kurogiri regains form and puts Shigaraki into a warp gate.

“We need someone who can capture them from a distance” Snipe suggests

“I'm on it,” 13 says weakly opening up a black hole on all 5 of her fingers

“Let’s go! This is Blackhole?!” Kurogiri says as he and shigaraki are pulled towards them

“I may have failed to kill you this time. But your days are numbered!” Shigaraki says before He and kurogiri disappear

“That day we learned what pros could do. And what they fight against to keep us all safe. It was a revelation we weren’t prepared for. But somehow we survived” Lucas said as narrator

Chapter 8: Aftermath

Chapter Text

“Well my my my” Snipe said

“I can’t believe we let them escape after everything they did here,” Midnight said

“They did catch us completely by surprise. For now, we need to make sure that all the students are ok.” Nedzu explains

Down near the center of the USJ

“All the teachers are here that must mean the rest of the campus is safe” Todoroki

“Impulse, hey are you ok?” Kirishima asked running towards his body before Cementos blocked him

“For your safety please stay back young man. Join your classmates at the front gate. Leave the injured to us so we can take care of them.” He says

“Oh, okay got it!” Kirishima responds

On the other side of the wall, All Might falls to the ground over Impulse's body, lamenting over how he couldn’t save him.

“Inform the others, Cementos. I need to stay here a bit”

“Understandable”

After a few seconds Impulse quickly sits up gasping for air, his hood falling off.

“Ah! Impulse you’re alive? Wait! Young Midoriya?” All Might reacts

“All Might! You remember me?!” Izuku asks

“Of course I do. I could never forget failing you. How are you even alive? Both after Shigarakis actions and what happened 10 months ago.” All Might asks

“After falling off that roof I learned I had a quirk. I heard what you said at my funeral. As a legally dead person, I couldn’t go to hero school. So I trained with Cheshire and Silver Rabbit. Learned about my quirk. Became Impulse, because of what you said!” Izuku explained

“Ah, Young Midoirya it is good to see you again, I'm sorry about what happened to you there. I wasn’t able to stop Shigaraki” All Might apologizes

“I attacked because I knew about your limit I could see through your bluff. If I didn’t it would’ve been you getting stomped on” izuku assures

“You were aware of that?” All Might asks

“ I’m aware of it all” Izuku responds

Outside of the USJ, police load villains into buses while detective Tsukauchi takes count of the students.

“16 17 18 19. All students are accounted for. The only no major injuries and the only casualty being the vigilante Impulse-”

“Wait, what?” Bakugo and kirishima ask

“Cementos reported that vigilante impulse was killed by the leader of the League of villains. After what I heard from eraser about his powers I don’t think it will last” Tsukauchi responds

“Well of course it doesn’t last! Death can’t kill a ghost.” Impulse says appearing to the side of the group causing the class to look at him. He wasn’t wearing his hood, had no goggles and his mouth was covered by a cloth mask. The front section of hair, what was once green is now a ghostly white color. Cheshire and Silver Rabbit run over to Impulse and hug him expressing how glad they are that he’s ok.

“Let’s go ahead and get these students back to the main campus, we don’t need to question them right away!” Tsukauchi ordered

“Detective! What about Mr. Aizawa?” Tsu asked concerned

“Yeah is Eraserhead alright?” Impulse also asked

“ he sustained damage to his elbow during the fight with Shigaraki. Although his fight with the Nomu was brief, the thing was able to cause a server head injury that we aren’t sure what the damages were. He should be fine over all, but we need to wait for him to wake before we learn anything else.” Tsukauchi explains

“ Um, sir what about 13?” Mina asked worriedly

“There's no need to worry there, despite some pretty bad laceration to the back. 13 is gonna pull through, good as new. And All Might is also without serious injuries. He’s in the nurse's office right now. Recovery girl's power should be all the treatment he needs. And like I mentioned before the only reported casualty was the vigilante Impulse, but as you can see-” Tsukauchi explains before he cuts himself off after hearing what Impulse is saying

“ I survived a 3 story fall, an 8 story fall, gunshot to the head, chest riddled with bullets, stabbed in the head, piano wire, electric shock, 12 story fall, and now my entire face being turned to dust. Gotta say a pretty impressive list of times I died” impulse listed off to his friends not realizing the students could hear him

“Impulse, I don’t condone vigilante activity, but Eraser has taken a special interest in you. You and your team won’t be detained if you stay with 1A,” Tsukauchi explains

“That’s fine by me,” Impulse responds

“Now, let’s get you back to class,” Tsukauchi says to the students

The students load back into the bus, the vigilantes following them.

Inside the USJ, Nedzu, Snipe, and Midnight talk about the incident.

“We need security improvements perhaps an entire system overhaul” Nedzu suggests

“Indeed” Snipe agrees

“Warp quirks are very rare and can completely change the course of a battle. It’s frightening to know that a villain has such a power.” Midnight explains

Outside, the police officers have captured the Nomu and one of them reports to Tsukauchi

“Tsukauchi sir, some thought to be involved in this attack was just apprehended in a wooded area nearby”

“Report” Tsukauchi commands

“He has no apparent injuries and seems to be complying with officer commands for now. He hasn’t said a word though. We are not sure he can speak”

Nedzu, Snipe, and Midnight walk out of the USJ, and Tsukauchi walks over to them.

“Principal. I’d like to investigate every inch of the school just to be safe,” Tsukauchi asks

“ Of course, please do! You’ll have full access to the campus. We definitely need your assistance on this matter. I don’t care who makes a fuss. You have my blessing!” Nedzu responded

“Teams proceed as planned!” Tsukauchi commands

The next day, In the UA meeting room Snipe, Midnight, Vlad King, Nedzu, and All Might have a meeting with Tsukauchi. Impulse, Cheshire, and Silver Rabbit are also in the room.

“Out investigators are trying everything they can to learn about this so-called League of Villians. We’ve made some progress, but we can’t find anything on this Shigaraki so far. We searched our records for men in their 20s or 30s having some sort of disintegration quirk. But so far we’ve come up empty. Same for the warpgate villain Kuogiri. So they’re not citizens or they are using aliases. Hard to find either way” Tsukauchi explains

“So what you’re really saying is we don’t know anything.” Vlad King points out.

“ I shot their ring leader but once he heals up he’ll probably pull something like this again. What a pain,” Snipe comments

“He did seem like the type” All Might notes

“Is something on your mind, All Might?” nedzu asks

“ The attack on the USJ was too bold. No sane adult would ever attempt it. The ring leader kept monologing about the reason he was there and he bragged about Nomu’s many quirks. But he never said a word about his own powers. When things didn’t go his way he was visibly upset like he was gonna throw a tantrum. Ah, I guess bragging about Nomu’s quirks was a quick way to draw me into a fight.” All Might explained

“That might be true, yes. But strategically it was foolish to reveal his quirks upfront instead of keeping them a secret!” Nedzu responds

“Shigaraki made wild, immature claims but did so with a completely straight face, and he talked about Nomu like he was some kind of pet. It seemed like he’d never been told no before and thought things would go his way no matter what. He has the personality of a spoiled little brat, a man-child. “ All Might noted

“A child with incredible power though.” Vlad King comments

“It’s possible he never got the quirk counseling students received in elementary school. “ Midnight suggests

“Maybe so, but it doesn’t really matter now,” Snipe says

“ there were 124 villains arrested in the aftermath of the USJ attack. They were all small-time thugs who usually worked around back alleys. What worries me is that his man-child got them all to follow his crazy plan. They viewed him as a real leader. Criminals are now starting to feel more pressure now that the world is brimming with heroes. Which could be why they were so quick to back such simple-minded villainy.” Tsukauchi explains
“They weren’t told much.” Impulse cuts in

“I’m sorry, but what are they doing here?” Vlad King asks gesturing to the vigilantes

“They have as much as a right to be in this meeting as you do, Vlad. Like it or not these vigilantes helped.” Nedzu explained

“Please elaborate, Impulse,” Tsukauchi asks

“Everyone was recruited by Grian. Because of our unique recruitment, we were given more information and a meeting with the leaders beforehand. Although we didn’t know this at the time. Each thug was recruited on the bases that “someone out there has a surefire plan to kill All Might, but they need as many villains as possible.” each thug was desperate as underground dealers like grian were starting to back off the trade because of All Mights influence. He was a threat to their way of life, their choice of occupation. So when someone said they had a half believable plan to kill All might thug after thug began lining up.” Impulse explained

“Guess that makes sense” Vlad notes

“There are plenty of people out there looking for a cause to get behind.” Snipe adds

“So what can we do to stop them?” Midnight asks

“Well, it is thanks to you heroes that we have the time to devote ourselves to this case. We’ll expand our investigation and continue to search for the perpetrators who planned this attack.” Tsukauchi promises

“A man child huh? In some ways, he shares common ground with our students. They both have so much potential. And like our students, I suppose it’s possible someone is guiding him. Trying to nurture his malice and villainy. “ Nedzu adds

“I don’t wanna think about what that could mean” All Might admits

“Do you have any more information about the League?” Nedzu asks the vigilantes

“No, even after 8-9 months of searching, we couldn’t find much” Silver Rabbit answers

“9 months? You’ve known about this for 9 months? Why didn’t you inform a pro?” Vlad asks angrily

“Oh, I’m sorry let me just walk up to a pro a go “Hey there person who can arrest me, I’ve been doing illegal vigilante work and learned that there is a plot to kill All Might. Oh, you don’t believe it? Wait why are you arresting me I'm only help!” we’re kids, not idiots. It was more likely anyone we talked to or warned would favor the fame of catching us over actually warning All Might. You’d be surprised how many of those deaths I listed came from heroes.” Impulse response

“Wait you’re kids?!” Midnight asks shocked

“How old are you folk?” Snipe asks

“ Old enough to be students here” Impulse responds

“The situation these three face is a unique one that Aizawa has informed me of. Aizawa and myself will cover the issue when he returns. For now, I suggest that it is best if they stay on campus, although I doubt they’ll listen.” nedzu says pointing to Travis who is alone in the corner as Toga and Izuku had vanished.

“I’m gonna find a place to pass out,” Travis said defeated leaving the room

In Aizawa's hospital room, Eraser is laying down and working on his laptop when Impulse enters the room from the floor.

“Kid? How did you get in here?” Aizawa asks startled

“Do you really think you should be working? You’re recovering from a head injury.” Impulse says while taking off his mask and goggles.

“I’ll be fine. Didn’t Nedzu tell you that you had to be on campus?” Aizawa asks

“He did, I just didn’t listen. I wanted to check on you. By the time I regenerated you had already been sent here.” Izuku answers

“Regenerated? Did you die again?” Aizawa asked worriedly

“Yeah, that Shigaraki guy disintegrated my face just before leaving, “ Izuku responded

The door to the hospital room opened, Nemuri, Hizashi, and Tsukauchi walk through the door starling Izuku.

“So this is where you went,” Nemuri commented

“ Eraser is the first adult to genuinely care about me since my first death. Of course, I’m gonna be here after he got injured.” Izuku responded sitting down on a chair near Aizawas bed

“Sho, you really should lay off the work. You need to rest.” Hizashi said

“I’m fine, I think I can handle-” Aizawa said a knife shot its way into the screen of Aiazawas laptop.

“Rest” Izuku said looking down at his phone

“Midoriya! I can understand the concern, but did you really have to do that? All my work.” Aizawa asks angrily

“Yes I did, get lucas to make you a new one. He can recover the data.” Izuku said calmly

“Speaking of Lucas. He’s Circuit so he knows you’re alive. What about bakugo?” Aizawa asks

“Wait, Lucas is the vigilante circuit?” Hizashi asked surprised

“Bakugo doesn’t know I’m alive and won’t know I’m alive. I’ve hidden the truth from him for so long I don’t think he’d like it if he’d learn I was alive. “ Izuku responds

“If you keep it hidden from him it will only get worse. It would be best if you told him soon, especially if you join class 1A.” Aizawa said

“What? Join class A? Is this what Nedzu meant when he said “cover the issue” ?” Izuku asked surprised

“Listen, kid, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. But you and your friends were in a unique position where you could only be vigilantes if you wanted to help. But Nedzu and I want to give you three the chance to become heroes. Besides, maybe you could teach my class a couple of things.” Aizawa explains

____________________________________________________________________________

The day after the USJ incident school was canceled. Give the students time to relax and the teachers time to think. The next day class began just like normal with people talking about the events.

“Did you guys see the news? Wasn’t awesome that we got some screen time!” Mineta asked

“ we’re totally big deals! Those news channels love us! We’re basically celebrities!” Kaminari bragged

“Yeah, it’s kind of crazy, right?” Kirishima asked

“Get over your selves. The hero course that pumps out pros was attacked and that’s what they care about.” Jiro corrected

“Who knows what would’ve happened to us if the teachers hadn’t shown up,” Sero said

“Why did you say that!? I'm gonna pee myself just thinking about it!” Mineta whined

“Grow a pair you loser!” bakugo responded

“Did you guys see All Might fight the bird guy? That dude was super strong and he still destroyed him” Sato mentioned

“Yes, his strength is truly a thing of wonder” Tokoyami commented

“Hey Tsu,” Mina said leaning back in her chair while turning around to talk to tsu

“Who do you think gonna teach class today?” Mina asked

“No idea, Mr. Aizawa’s still in the hospital recovering from his injuries” Tsu notes

BLAM! The class door is kicked open with force, Impulse walking in shouting
“What’s up my bitches, bro, and Non-binary Hoes! Aizawa's dead, so you’re all my bitches now!”
The class pulls back in shock, a single scream can be heard.
He was in his casual clothes. Cloth mask on and his hair was still partially white.

“That is highly inappropriate behavior! Even if you are a vigilante!” Iida scolds

Travis restrains Impulse with his scarf as he and Toga walk into the class. They are also in their casual outfits.

“I apologize for him,” Travis says

“I don’t that was hilarious” Toga says

“What are you doing here?” Sato asks

“Should you even be here?” Sero asks

“The alarms not going off.” Mineta notes

Impulse gets free of the restraints and explains
“Because we’re your age, Aizawa and Nedzu wants (is making) us to go to UA.”

“Why?” Kaminari asks

The door slides open Aizawa limps in

“MR. AIZAWA?!” The class shouts in confusion

“Mr. Aizawa I’m glad to see that you’re ok!” Iida yells

“You call that ok?” uraraka notes

“My well-being is irrelevant,” Aizawa says before making it to the podium.

“What’s important is your fight isn’t over yet,” Aizawa informs

“Our fight?” bakugo asks confused

The class has a wave of confused murmurs

“The UA Sports festival is about to start” Aizawa announces

“Yes!” Kirishima says

“Why would you scare us like that?!” The class asks

“Let’s go kick some ass-” Kirishima yells before being pushed down by kaminari saying “Wait a second”

“Is it really such a good idea to hold the sports festival so soon after the villain snuck inside?” Jiro asks

“They can attack once we’re all in the same place” Ojiro notes

“Apparently the administration thinks this is a good way to show that the threat has been handled and that our school is safer than ever. Plus they’re beefing up security compared to past years.” Aizawa explains

“With a stadium full of pros and students with unknown quirks. You would need a massive army to attack the sports festival. And for what? The league attacked the USJ because it was isolated. Pick off a couple of kids, remove two pros and kill All Might. That was their plan, they choose a precise point in which trouble would be minimized. They ran once 10 more pros showed. The Sports Festival is streamed live. Hundreds of pros and people watching. Also that army of 100+ villains they had? It took them 9 months to assemble and us 1 day to whip out. Shigaraki would still be recovering from his wounds. No one is dumb enough to attack the sports festival.” Impulse explains

“This event is a huge opportunity for all students at UA. It’s not something we can cancel because of a few villains.” Aizawa adds

“Uh, I’m sorry, but why not? It’s just the sports festival!” Mineta asked

“Mineta, don’t you know how important the sports festival is?” lucas asked turning around

“Of course I do, I just don’t want to get murdered!” Mineta whined

“Our Sports Festival is one of the most watched events in the entire world. In the past everyone obsessed over the Olympic games. But then quirks started appearing, now the Olympics have been drastically reduced in terms of scale and viewership. For anyone that cares about competition, there’s only one tournament that matters, The UA Sports Festival.” Aizawa explains

“That’s right, and top heroes everywhere will be watching. This is where you get scouted” Momo adds

“Sure, unless your dead” Mineta mumbles

“ She’s right. After graduating a lot of people join pro agencies as a sidekick” Kaminiari mentions

“Yeah, but that’s as far as some people go. They miss their chance to go indie and stay eternal sidekicks. Actually, that’s probably where you’re headed. You’re kinda dumb” Jiro adds

“It’s true that joining a famous hero agency can garner you greater experience in popularity. And that’s why the festival matters. If you want to go pro one day then this whole event can open a path for you. One chance a year. 3 chances in a lifetime. No aspiring hero can afford to miss this festival. That means you better not slack off on your training!” Aizawa informs

“Yes sir,” the class says together

“Class dismissed. Vigilantes, shadow them” Aizawa said

Later after the modern literature class, the students begin talking about the festival.

“ that villain stuff sucked, sure. But pumped for these games!” Kirishima shouted

“If we put on a good show, then we’re basically on the road to being pros!” Sero said

“Yeah! That’s why I am even here in the first place!” Sato said

“We get so few chances. We have to make the most of it.” Tokoyami said

“My, what’s a boy to do. I stand out even when I’m standing still. That means the scouts won’t be able to take their eyes off me!” Aoyama said dramatically

“You’re so lucky Shoji, people are bound to notice your unique quirk,” Kaminari predicts

“Sure but what matters how useful I can be” Shoji adds
“No don’t you’ll make a scene.” Jiro teases causing Kaminari to make a frustrated noise.

“This is gonna be nuts. Everyones so excited” Lucas notes

“ well yeah, of course, we are. We enrolled at this school with the sole aim to become heroes! So naturally, we’re all getting fired up” Iida said doing a little dance

“Wow, Iida. those are some interesting moves,ribbet” tsu complements?

“You have to be excited too, right lucas?” Iida asks

“Well yeah, but I’m also nervous. I can’t use any tech I haven’t tested so I need to go through a long list before the festival.” Lucas explains

“Lucas! Iida! Let’s do our best in the Sports Festival!” uraraka says with a dangerous aura

“What happened to your face?” Lucas asked worriedly

“Seriously what’s up? You’re normally like the most laid-back girl ever!” Mina adds

“ Everyone I’m gonna do my best!” Uraraka shouts

“Yeah!” a group of students shouts

“I said I’m gonna do my best!” She repeats

“Yeah?” some kids weakly say

“You ok? You kinda seem like you’re losing it” Kirishima comments

During lunch hour Iida, lucas, and Uraraka are joined by Travis, Toga, and Izuku as they walk towards the lunch room.

“Hey uraraka, I want to ask. What made you want to be a hero?” Izuku asks

“Oh well it’s for the money” Uraraka answers

“For the money?” Toga questions

“You wanna be a hero so you can get rich?” Lucas asks

“If we are cutting to the chase then yeah! I’m sorry if it sounds greedy! You guys have such admirable motivations. I hope you don’t think less of me now” Uraraka responded nervously

“Of course not ~cutie~” Toga responds

“Not at all! Your goal is to support your well-being which is a perfectly admirable ambition to have!” Iida reassures

“Yeah, it’s just kind of surprising” Lucas adds

“Well you see, my family owns a construction company, but we haven’t gotten any work lately. So we’re flat broke. Anyway, this isn’t something I usually tell other people but-” uraraka explains

“Construction ey?” Iida questions

“Oh, if you got licenses you could use your quirk to bring costs down a lot” Izuku theorizes

“And they could sell their heavy lifting equipment. She could float everything!” Iida adds

“I know right! I’ve telling dad that since I was a kid!” she pauses before her tone shifts

“I’m gonna become a pro. I’ll sign with a good agency and make plenty of money. Then I’ll be able to let my parents have an easy life! “ uraraka said with determination

“Respectable” Travis complements

“~Cute~” Toga Complements

“admirable” Izuku Complements

Iida starts clapping, saying “That’s beautiful! So noble! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!”

“HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA Young Impulse! Is Here!” All Might said appearing near the group

“Woah All Might? What are you doing here?” Impulse asks confused

“Lunch! You wanna eat with me? What do you say?” All Might asks

“Sure, see you guys after,” Impulse said joining him

In the lunch line.

“I wonder what All Might wanted with Hiro,” Uraraka said

“Hiro? Oh, you mean Impulse. I heard that during that attack that Impulse saved All Might from an attack. Maybe that’s what it was about” Iida suggested

“It probably has to do with their history.” Toga slipped causing Travis to cover her mouth

“What do you mean?” Iida and Uraraka ask together

“Sorry, this isn’t our place to tell. Ew! Are you licking my hand” Travis explains before pulling his hand away from toga and then whipping it off on her clothes.

“You’re lucky I didn’t bite you,” toga says

“Bite me? Would you even have teeth after that?” Travis asks

__________________________________________________________________________

“Only 50 minutes?”

“Yeah, I just used too much too many times. I can barely look like All Might for an hour and a half.” Yagi explains

“I’m sorry, I wish I could’ve done-” Izuku is cut off by All Might

“BAHAHAHA Man you’re a lot like me, you know? Here have some tea” yagi says handing a cup over to Izuku.

“Thanks”

“Listen I wanted to speak with you about something. Something you should know about.” Yagi explains

“Ok? Go ahead All Might”

“Please call me Yagi in this form” Yagi suggests

“Ok, Yagi”

“My true form isn’t the only dangerous secret I have. There is also the secret of my quirk. One for All.” Yagi starts

“That’s the name of your quirk?” Izuku cuts in

“Yes, One for All is a powerful quirk, with a unique attribute that only one other quirk can do. It can be passed on from one person to another” Yagi continues
“The ability to pass on the quirk to another?” Izuku questions

“Yes, I was given this quirk by my master, Nana Shimura. I was tasked with protecting it intel I was ready to pass it on to someone else. That’s why I became a teacher at UA to find a worthy successor for One for All. but 10 months before my first year as a teacher even started. I ran into a timid quirkless boy who had the drive and the passion to become a hero. Someone who ran into a fight while I stood by and watched. I have to thank you Young Midoriya because if you never ran in I wouldn’t have mustered up the strength to help! That is why Izuku Midoriya I want you to be the next wielder of One for All!” Yagi finished

“It’s been 10 months. Why haven’t you chosen someone else by now?” Izuku asks

“I wanted to watch the sports festival to get a good idea of each student's potential. I can’t just give it to just anyone. It has to be someone who embodies the true ideals of a hero. Even in death you persevered and found a new way to become a hero! That is why it must be you, Young Midoriya.” yagi answers

“I’m flattered All Might, but I can’t accept this quirk. I have my own quirk now and I'm still learning new stuff about it. I can still help you though. In training the new Successor. In finding a new successor. Hell Lucas might be a good fit or Bakugo, even Todoroki would be a good choice. But my decision is final, I don’t want One for All.” Izuku responds

“I approve of your decision, Young Midoriya. It saddens me that you won’t become my successor, as I know you would’ve been a great symbol of peace. I will take you up on the offer of help once I have picked out candidates from the Sports Festival” Yagi says

“Heh, maybe in another life I would’ve been a Symbol of Peace. But that’s too much attention, I think I’d like to be more of an underground hero” Izuku adds

“Thank you, Young Midoriya,” Yagi says

"for what?" Izuku asks

Chapter 9: The Sports Festival

Chapter Text

“Alright class before we dismiss I want to emphasize how important it is that you don’t mention the vigilantes to any other students. They are 3 “potential students” who are shadowing the hero course class. If word gets out and we find out who leaked the information you will receive no punishment from me. Instead, your fate will be decided by the vigilantes themselves. It is especially important that you don’t leak Lucas's past as Circuit.” Aizawa announces

“Wait, why can’t this information get out and why do they get to decide what happens to us?” Kaminari asked

“Nedzu and I thought that this would be a good teaching moment. As pros some times you are privy to information that is sensitive. Depending on what the information is it can cause a riot, ruin someone's life, or completely collapse society. The whistleblower is normally punished in any case. As to why they carry out the punishments is because Nedzu thought it would be fun.” Aizawa answers

Class 1A gets dismissed class and Aizawa slips into a sleeping bag, the class finds a crowd of UA students blocking the doorway.

“ why the heck are you all here?” Uraraka asked

“ “Do you students have some sort of business with our class?” Iida asks

“Why are you blocking our doorway? I won’t be held hostage!” Mineta yells

“They’re scouting out the competition idiots. We’re the class that survived a real villain attack. They want to see us with their own eyes. Now move it” Bakugo says

“You can’t just tell people to move! There are formalities! Like Please and Thank you!” Iida scolds

“ So this is class 1A? I heard you guys were impressive, but you just sound like an ass. Is everyone in the hero course this bad or just you? I was sad to come here and find a bunch of ego maniacs. I wanted to be in the hero course, but like many others here I was forced to choose a different track such as life. I didn’t cut it the first time around, but I have another chance. If any of us do well in the sports festival the teachers can decide to transfer us to the hero course. And they’ll have to transfer people out to make room. Scouting the competition? Maybe some of my peers are, but I’m here to let you know that if you don’t bring your very best I’ll steal your spot right from under you. Consider this a declaration of war ” A student said monologing

“Hi, Lucas Lycan, great to meet you. We do have a spot open in this class that is in the process of being filled currently, but this here piece of social trash, you can take his place we don’t want him” Lucas says pointing to Mineta

“What?! How could you say that! I have value!” Mineta whined

“No you don’t, your days are numbered and in the next few chapters, you will be replaced. You almost peed yourself at the thought of a villain attack. You don’t deserve to be here and you should’ve been expelled not Toru. Hero course isn’t right for you” Lucas says threateningly

“Why are you so mean to me?”

“Because this is tagged Mineta bashing”

“What does that mean?”

“Hey, you! I’m from class 1B next door to you! I heard you fought some villains and I came to see if that was true! But you’re just a bunch of brats who think you’re better than us! Talk all you want it will just be more embarrassing for you when you’re KOed!”

Bakugo ignores them and moves past the crowd

“Dude where are you going? You gotta say something, it’s your fault they’re all hating on us, bakugo!” Kirishima accuses

“Kirishima leave him alone. If they want to think of us as spoiled egotistical brats, then let them. What matters is as a class WE together understand what we went through wasn’t fun. We know that we barely survived the incident. We fought real villains. With real danger. 13, and Mr. Aizawa were sent to the hospital. These people's opinions don’t matter. We shouldn’t care if they think we’re self-absorbed brats. We know we’re not and we know we will always go our all, no matter what, never holding back! PLUS ULTRA!” lucas explains

“PLUS ULTRA!” The class chants

“Besides this is part of being a hero, not everyone will like you and especially other heroes will be out there gunning for your spot. While it’s important to keep good relations, don’t always assume just cause you're both heroes that you’ll get along.” Izuku adds

After the class cleared up Lucas, Izuku, Travis, and Toga walked through the halls together

“pretty good speech back there, ~circuits~. Say has Aizawa explained what we’ll be doing during the festival?” toga asks

“He told me we can participate if we want. We won’t be grouped in with any class and all three of us can go with the first years.” Izuku responds

“Additionally, if you don’t want to participate, Nedzu informed me that we can perform security duties. They are bringing in heroes from all around to keep things safe. We can always help that way.” Travis adds

“Say Izuku, why did Aizawa ask me to retrieve data from a laptop that had a knife hole in it?” Lucas asked

“That’s because the stubborn hero wouldn’t rest. Like jeez, even I sometimes take a break now and again.” Izuku responded

Cue montage of class 1A training for the Sports Festival.
____________________________________________________________________________

1A waiting room

“Awe man! I was total hoping I could wear my costume!” Mina whined

“Atleast everyone will be in uniforms that’ll keep things fair right?” Ojiro mentions

“I wonder what they have in store for us in the first round?” Sato asked nervously

“No matter what they’ve prepared we must persevere, give it our all like lucas said” Tokoyami assured

BLAM door kicked open Lucas walked in with Toga, Travis, and Izuku behind him.
“Alright, kids! Are you ready for some thrills, chills, and kills?!” he says causing Mineta's nerves to increase
“K-kills?” he asks shaking

“Only you Mineta, only you” Lucas answered

____________________________________________________________________________

“HEY! Make some noise all you rabid sports fans! Get those cameras prepped! This year we’re bringing you some of the hottest performances in sports festival history guaranteed! I’ve only got one question before we start this show! Are you ready?! Let me hear your screams as our competitors make their way to the big stage!” Present Mic says starting of the Festival causes cheers from the crowd

“This first group is no stranger to the spotlight! You know them from withstanding a villain attack! The dazzling students lighting up your TVs with those solid gold skills, The Hero Course students of Class 1A!” Present Mic said as class 1A (+vigilantes) walked out into the arena

"I didn't know there were gonna be so many people," Izuku said nervously
"I hope we're still able to give our best performances even tho all these eyes are watching us. I suppose it's just another aspect of being a hero we all have to learn to get used to" Iida said hopefully
"Present Mic sure did talk us up a lot. Kinda makes me nervous. How are you feeling man?" Kirishima asked Bakugo
"I'm not worried. Makes me want to win this thing even more." Bakugo answers
"They haven't been getting nearly as much screen time, but this next group is still chalked full of talent! Welcome, Hero Course Class 1B! Next up are general studies classes C D and E! Support classes F G and H! and finally Business classes I J and K! Give it up for all of UAs first year contestants!" Present Mic said as all the students had gathered in the middle
Midnight stands on the middle stage and says
"And now the introductory speech!"
"uh, someone should talk to Miss Midnight about what she's wearing." Kirishima mentions
"yeah, that costume should come with a warning." Denki notes
"is that really appropriate apparel for a high school game?" Tokoyami asks
"Silence everyone! and for the student pledge, We have Katsuki Bakugo!" Midnight
bakugo calmly walks up to the stand.
"I just wanna say I’m not gonna hold back. None of you should hold back.”
“That’s weirdly motivational,” Class 1A says together
“Without further ado, it’s time for us to get started! This is where you’ll begin to feel the pain! The first faithful game of the festival!” Midnight said as a giant holographic wheel spins behind her

“Oh, what could it be?” Midnight asks suspensefully

The spinner lands on the obstacle course

“TA-DA! All 11 classes will compete in this treacherous contest! The track is 4 kilometers around the outside of the stadium! I don’t wanna restrain anyone, at least not in this game. As long as you don’t leave the course you are free to do whatever your hearts desire! Now then, take your place contestants!” Midnight explains

The classes prepare in front of the starting gate, with 3 green lights above to gate light up.
1 goes off, students ready up
2 goes off, tension rises
3 goes off, Midnight yells “BEGIN!”

Present Mic starts his commentary as the students stampede through the door.

“And we’re off to a racing start! How about some colored commentary, Eraserhead? What should we be paying attention to during the early stages of the race?”

“The doorway” Aizawa responds

The classes get stuck in the doorway as everyone races out. The floor freezes over trapping many contestants in the door. Todoroki runs out ahead of the rest, but his attack wasn’t as effective, because people like Bakugo, Kirishima, Aoyama, momo, etc, use their quirks to get ahead.

“Nice trick todoroki!” Momo says

“I won’t let you get ahead so easily, Icyhot!” Bakugo says

The crowd of students hears “Flight core Activated” as they see BT flight above everyone stopping to hover over the crowd.

“What is that thing?!”

“Is that BT?”

The co*ckpit doors open Lucas leans out in full pilot gear.

“VooDoo1 Knights on station. Your journey ends here, heroes! The skies belong to me! Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide!” he says from the festival speakers

Lucas leans back into the co*ckpit, doors closing “Dodge this” is heard as BT fires a barrage of missiles in front of the entrance creating a cloud of dust.

“WOAH! Eraser, is that even allowed?” Mic asks

“BT is a product of Lucas’s quirk. He was still within the bounds of the course so everything he did was fine.” Aizawa responds

As the contestants race on they run into a field riddled with the robots from the entrance exam.

“OOO enemies have shown up out of nowhere! I bet we are in for a treat here! A test of strength! It’s a robot inferno!” Mic comments

Lucas hovers over the army of robots, none posing a threat to him except for the massive zero-pointers from the entrance exam.

The co*ckpit door opens again Lucas leans out to look at the zero pointers looking at him.

“We probably should’ve added a height limit to this course!” Mic comments

“Please, tech is my whole thing,” Lucas says just before Jumping off of BT and falling a bit before grappling onto BT's arm. BT swings his arm around throwing Lucas towards the zero-pointers. Lucas lands on a Zero Pointer, he throws pulse blades at multiple locations on the robot's body. BT flies in locking onto the areas Lucas marks and firing a barrage of missiles that target those spots. The zero pointer falls to the ground as Lucas grapples onto another zero pointer. Meanwhile, a couple of the smaller robots decide to target lucas. They climb onto the zero pointer, making their way towards Lucas. BT flies in lands on the zero pointer and starts shooting the robots. One robot gets past BT, making its way to attack Lucas who forms a rocket launcher to deal with the issue. Lucas continues his marking of key locations on the Zero Pointer, before moving on to the next Zero Pointer as BT took out that one as well. The same happened for the third before Lucas made his way to the next section.

A zero-pointer goes into attack todoroki, but he freezes them in place. A lot of the contestants expressed gratitude for taking out an enemy.

“Don’t thank me just yet. I froze that villain while it was off balance. On purpose” He said as the aforementioned zero pointer falls towards the contestants only 3 being caught under it.

Ejiro buries out from within it
“I’M ALIVE! Dammit, todoroki I can’t you would pull something like that! Jeez anyone but me would’ve been killed”

“Wow, Ejiro Kirishima making his mark by surviving the robot crash” Mic comments

“Class 1A really is full of jerks! I’ll smash the ice guy when I get my hands on him! You know, anyone but me would’ve been killed” Tetsutetsu said as he also buried out from under it

“Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu was also under there!” Mic added

Izuku in his ghostly transparent form rises from within the robot as well.
“And I was killed by the robot!” He says in an over dramatic tone shocking Tetsutetsu and Kirishima
“JUST KIDDING! Can’t kill what’s already dead” Izuku said returning to his physical form while also turning his head around a full 360

“And the ghostly Hiro Midori Had also survived the crash! Disturbing” Mic noted

Travis, riding a plate of his metal, flies over the conflict, a zero pointer gets in his way and he forms a massive spike of his metal, impaling it and moving past.

Many other members of class 1A made their past the robots. Bakugo blew one up, Momo shot one with a cannon she made. After a few other falling zero pointers, the major obstacles were out. Students made is quickly past the robots to face the next obstacle. Massive bottomless pit with only platforms connected by ropes as a way to get across.

Lucas was there hovering over the pit, once students arrived he said
“You need to move faster than that, heroes! Speed is life!” before flying off

Multiple students tackled the issue quickly. A Support course student, Mei Hatsume, used her gadgets to climb across. Tsu used her ability to cling to things, Uraraka used her zero gravity. Todoroki Ice over the ropes, Bakugo flew over. Travis flew on his metal plate, while Izuku floated over the gaps.

In the stand with the UA Pro teachers.
“Looks like all the pack leaders are from Class 1A, for now,” Snipe points out

“It’s not that class 1B and the other students are doing poorly. It’s just-” All Might starts

“Class 1A has learned not to hesitate, They’ve seen what the real world is like. They’ve felt the fear of facing villains. Yet they fight on trying to overcome that fear, they’ve grown All of them. And they know that they’ll have to act quickly if they want to stay alive, ” Aizawa continues

“Everyone must learn to tread carefully! You’re stepping onto a minefield! By the way, those mines were designed for the games, so they might be loud and flashy, but they aren’t all that powerful! ” Mic announces

Shoto arrives stopping just before the minefield. BT is seen at the very edge of the field. The other contestants arrive, some going through the field slowly others very quickly. Shotos was in second but is quickly overtaken by Bakugo who just blew over the mines. Shoto speeds things up icing the mines and creating a safe path for himself but also for those behind him.

Incredibly Izuku jumps out of the ground and incredible speeds. He overtakes bakugo and todoroki, disappearing into the ground once more, quickly taking in a leading position.

“Amazingly Hiro Midori takes up a leading position! Zipping by Bakugo and Todoroki”

Towards the end of the minefield, BT begins to move, ready to take first place. But Once more Izuku launches up from out of the ground and lands right in BT causing an electrical shock. Izuku jumps right out taking first place. Lucas pops out of the collapsed Titan, pressing a button on his gauntlets before running after Izuku at Incredible speed. Lucas makes it just behind Izuku as they make it towards the stadium.

" Eraserhead, your students are amazing! what the heck are you teaching them?" Mic asks
"This has nothing to do with me, each of them is powered by their own drive to succeed." Aizawa answers
"there you have it! Eraserhead is a terrible teacher!" Mic adds
"I’m- What!?" Aizawa asks annoyed
"who would imagine at the beginning of this race that the climax would be a none stop megamix of surprises!" Mic comments
Izuku runs into the stadium first, followed by Lucas.
"And the one who made it back to the stadium first is Hiro Midori!" Mic Announces
More students begin entering the stadium
"The contestants are pouring in one after the other let's hear some applause for all our competitors as we prepare the results!" Mic comment
In the arena, Uraraka runs toward Izuku to congratulate him.
“Hiro! That was amazing! The way you took down Lucas's robot was so cool!” She said out of breath
“Yeah, powers of a typical ghost means I can shut down electronics” Izuku responded nervously
“~Izu~ your victory was so cool! You looked so cute crossing the finish line!” Toga said popping up from out of nowhere.
As Lucas and Travis join the group BT walks through the arena doors making his way toward lucas.
“Oh Hey! BT sorry about that! No hard feelings right?” Izuku said shouting up at the robot
“Affirmative. The Obstacle Course was a race where you could use your quirk how you see fit. No long-term damage to my core was sustained during the EMP burst. I am fine, all lasting damage was external from my collapse. But that can be repaired.” BT responded
“I let you win” Lucas joked
“No, no really didn’t,” Izuku responded

"The first game for the first years is finally over, now let's take a look at the standing shall we?"
"only the top 44 will advance to the next round, but don't be too let down if you didn't make the cut, we prepared other opportunities for you to shine. Now the real fun is about to begin. the chance to fully move yourselves into Limelight, give it your best!" Midnight says as the spinner shows up again
"Let's see what we have in store for you next? Will your wildest fantasies come to life? what could it be? The waiting is torture!" Midnight said suspensefully
"Prepare yourselves for this!" she points to the screen as it lands on "Cavalry Battle".
" Allow me to explain, The participants will form teams of two to four people as they see fit! In theory, is basically the same as a regular playground game, but there is one difference. Each player has been assigned a point value based on the results from the obstacle course. Now the point values go up by increments of five, for example, 44th place is worth 5, and 43rd is worth 10. and the point value assigned to the first place contestant is 10,000,000!” Midnight Explains
“Really?”
“So in other words, if you take down his team”
“You’ll win the calvary game”
“It's a survival of the fittest for those at the bottom to overthrow the top! Those of you at the top will suffer the most. Of course, that’s something you’ll hear over and over again at UA. Hiro Midori placed first in the qualifier! He’ll be worth 10 Million! " Midnight adds
Every student in the crowd turned to look at the white and green-haired boy, sweating through his mask. Even his friends Lucas, Uraraka, Toga, and Travis seemed like strangers out to get him. It was disturbing, but he was the king of disturbing. He turned his head 180 degrees looking at the majority of the students staring and asked “What?” as they all reacted in horror. He turned his body around so his head was facing the front then he reset his head's placement and said “OH I’m sorry did I make you guys uncomfortable? My bad I just assumed you enjoyed being disturbingly stared at!” Before turning around again to face Midnight.
“ First years! These are the rules you’ll abide by! The game itself will last 15 minutes! Your individual point values will be added together to create your team total! Everyone will know how much you’re worth thanks to your headbands. Swipe as many headbands as you can to raise your team score. Stolen headbands must be worn from the neck up, so the more you steal the harder it will be to manage them! And another thing even if your headband gets stolen or your team falls down you can keep playing intel time’s up!” Midnight explains
“So it’s anyone's game then” Momo notes
“Yeah, and since there are 44 contestants there will be 10 to 12 teams fighting on the field the entire time!” Sato adds
“Sounds hard” Aoyama comments
“So if you lose your headband at the begin of the game you’ll have more time to come up with a plan.” Mina theorizes
“I don’t know mina, maybe we should wait and see how the teams end up before we start strategizing” Tsu suggests
“This is going to be rough, you can use your quirks as much as you like, but there are still rules! Make a team fall on purpose and I’ll slap you with a red card, you’ll be disqualified! Now you’ve got 15 minutes to build your teams! I recommend you get started!” Midnight explains
After those fifteen minutes are up the teams created are
Team 1 Izuku, lucas, Uraraka, Tokoyami
Team 2 shiozaki, tetsutetsu, Juzo, Awase
Team 3 Sero, mina, kirshima, bakugo
Team 4 Toga, Mei, Travis,
Team 5 Momo, kaminari, iida, todoroki
Team 6 Mineta, tsu, shoji
Team 7 Jiro, Sato, Kota
Team 8 Monama, kosei, Kaibara, kuroiro
Team 9 Shinos, aoyama, ojiro, Shoda
Team 10 Kendo, reiko, Setsuna, komori
Team 11 Yui, Bondo, manga
Team 12 Rin, jurota
Team 13 Pony, togaru

The battle starts and the teams rush to attack Izukus team. Uraraka is on the right with tokoyami on the left, Lucas became the Front horse with Izuku as the Rider. Team 2 runs in with an attack Juzo uses his quirk to soften the ground causing the ground to sink.

“sh*t, Alright I got this” Izuku said as the group begins to glow a ghostly green. The 4 lift up out of the ground hovering just a few inches above the floor.

“Hiro press the blue button” Lucas suggests

“Got it,” Izuku said pressing a button on the control panel on his arm. Izuku stops lifting the group as a jetpack Izuku was wearing lifted the group off. After a few seconds of air time, the group lands with Izuku slowing their descent.

Team 1 is quickly attacked by team 6 as shoji charges toward them with Mineta throwing balls to try and keep the team stuck. Tsu attacks with her tongue trying to grab the headband but as she gets close to snatching it Izuku turns intangible her tongue passing right through him. More teams start to circle them. Izuku presses the button on his control panel again the team launching off once more. Bakugo launches off his team flying toward the group only to be stopped by dark shadow. Sero uses his tape to reel bakugo back. Team one lands once more only to entire a standoff with team 5 with todoroki stating
“I’ll be taking that now”
The team charges toward them

“Watch your surroundings, it isn’t just todoroki!” Izuku says

Teams 10, 12, 6, and 7 also begin charging toward them, but before any of them can get close Momo creates a protective sheet covering her team as kaminari releases an electric burst zapping the surrounding teams. The burst is blocked by dark shadow keeping team 1 alive. After the blast surprised the teams todoroki freezes them all in place leaving just teams 1 and 5.

Meanwhile, the majority of class 1A students aren’t doing too hot. Team 8 just swiped team 3 headband pissing off Bakugo. Monama demonstrates his quirk by using Kirishima's hardening and bakugo's explosions. All while monoma monologs about his hatred for class 1A.
Team 4 is doing well with Travis as the rider his metal blocking all attacks sent their way. Mei support gear helps them move quicker with Toga helping them turn.

Back with Team Todoroki vs Team Izuku, they continue their stand-off. Todoroki forms a wall of Ice isolating just the 8 of them.

“Press the red button” Lucas suggests

“What does that do?” Izuku asks

“Just do it!” Lucas urges

Izuku complies pressing the red button. A robot just a little bit larger than a human uncloaks.

“What is that thing?” Ochaco asks

“It’s called a reaper, let it do its thing” Lucas explains

Todorokis team takes a step back as the reaper makes a losing noise as it launches a series of 10 discs out of its top. The discs lay within them in the arena todoroki created each one popping open with a red cylinder head and 4 legs.

“Oh no it’s those exploding things lucas made during the battle training” Kaminari reminded

The ticks charge toward team todoroki, Iida evading them while Todoroki would freeze any he could. While team todoroki was distracted 16 stalkers would uncloak and align themselves in the calvary position creating 4 teams before a holographic replica of team Izuku was made over each creating 4 copies of team 1. After the ticks were destroyed team Todoroki returned their attention to Izuku only to find 5 of them.

“What in the world?” Kaminari said confused

“It’s was a distraction, they used the ticks to keep us occupied so we wouldn’t know which one was the real one.” todoroki explained

“But Lucas's holographic technology isn’t solid so we can easily disperse the holograms sniffing out the real team,” Iida added

Todoroki sends an ice attack freezing one of the groups in place, the group begins to struggle.

“Did we catch them already?” Momo asked

The frozen team rips themselves out of the ice shattering their legs causing looks of horror to appear on the faces of team todoroki, the frozen team falls apart, and the hologram disappears. The broken stalker bodies crawl towards team todoroki. The latter backs away quickly as the stalker begins to self-destruct.

“Thats one of them down, lucas is using robots to make the holograms have solid bodies. This won’t be as easy as we thought.” Iida notes

“What about emotion? I can’t really see their faces from here but the real team would show actual emotion, right? I don’t really know how the hologram stuff works” Kaminari mentions

“ whatever Lucas is doing his tech is mimicking the team they all have the same stance and same looks on their faces” Momo adds

“We don’t have much time left. I have an idea but what I'm about to do we’ll make me useless to you. But it should be worth it.” Iida said

“What are you going to do?” Todoroki asked

“ make sure you get that headband” Iida urges as he charges up his engines and the team moves at insane speeds. The speeds past each team, todoroki checking if the group was real before freezing them in place nullifying the stalkers, as they get to the last one they are sure it is the real group and as Todoroki reaches out for the band with his left arm, Izuku goes intangible making Todoroki's hand pass right through. Izuku quickly becomes solid reaching out for one of their bands but Todorokis left side flares up a wall of fire pushing the teams apart. Todoroki's team backs away, todoroki looking upset.

Meanwhile, Team bakugo chases after Nonoma’s team. Monoma continues to annoy him.

“Oh hey, you pretty famous aren’t you? The kid who got attacked by the sludge villain all those months ago. Who was the other kid there during the incident? Green hair the one who committed suicide days later? Midoriya right? His funeral was videotaped because of All Might's presence but people noticed you. You must have been friends right? Wasn’t he quirkless? Must be the reason, people always say they’re useless” Monama started

“Dude stop thats mes-” Kosei started but was quickly cut off by bakugo attacking the group launching off his team again

“You leave Izuku out of this you copycat bastard!” Bakugo cried as was about to send an explosion towards them but was stopped by kosei's solid air quirk. Bakugo clung to the solid air wall punching it in anger.

“Hehe, you look pretty stupid fighting with air” Kosei notes the as the group turns to walk away

Bakugo punches through the wall shattering it, he grabs onto two of the bands monoma has around his neck and rips them off saying “You ever bring up Izuku again and I’ll kill you!” before sero pulls him back to his team.

Monama team begins running away but bakugo won’t let up. Sero uses his quirk to pull the team towards monoma's team. Mina uses her acid to make the team slide allowing them to quickly catch up to monoma's team allowing Bakugo to easily snatch the band even though Monama put up an air wall using Kosei's quirk. After the takedown team bakugo ran over to the ice wall todoroki made and the team broke in creating a stand-off between the three teams. Bakugo launched off once more going after Izukus 10 million points but as he does the ending horn goes off. The calvary battle is over and bakugo falls to the ground mid-air.

“Bakugo are you ok?” Kirishima asks as bakugo begins hitting the ground repeatedly

The teams separate, lucas retrieves his control gaunt from izuku and cleans up the tech he made.

“And with that, the Calvary battle is over! Now let's take a look at who our top four teams are! In the first place, we have team Midori, in second place we have team todoroki, in 3rd place is team bakugo, and in 4th place we have- tetsutetsu wait!? what?! It’s team shinso! When did they come back from the dead?? These four value teams will advance on to the final round! Now let's take an hour lunch break before we start the afternoon festivities!” Mic announced

Chapter 10: Tournament battles part 1

Chapter Text

The class 1A students lined up for lunch and talked about the recent activity. Meanwhile, Izuku was taken aside by todoroki.

“You brought me here, now what?” Izuku asked

“ I was overwhelmed, and it made me break the promise I made a long time ago. My father is the hero Endeavor. He is the number 2 hero so you must have heard of him. My old man is ambitious he aims for the top. He used his power to make a name for himself as a hero. But he was never able to best All Might sp the symbol of peace is living proof of his failure. He’s still at it though. Trying to take down All Might one way or another” Todoroki explains

“I’m not entirely sure of what you're getting at. What are you trying to say?” Izuku asks

“ Have you ever heard of quirk marriages? They became a problem in the first few generations after superpowers became widespread. There were those who sought out potential mates solely with the intention of creating powerful children. Many people were forced into relationships, they were simply viewed as old fashion arranged marriages. But clearly, it was unethical. My father not only has a rich history of accomplishments but plenty of money to throw at his problems. He brought my mother's relatives purely to get her hands on his quirk. And now he’s raising me to usurp All Might. It’s so annoying I refuse to be used as a tool for that scumbag! In every memory of my mother, I only see her crying, I remember she called my left side unbearable before she poured boiling water on my face. The reason I picked a fight with you was to show my old man what I was capable of doing without having to rely on his damned fire quirk. Do you see? I going to show him I reject his power and I'm going to take first place without using it!” todoroki explains

“You’re an idiot” slips out

“What?” todoroki asks

“You’re a selfish idiot. You have two awesome powers but you refuse to use one of them because you believe it’s your dad's quirk. Thats not how quirks work! This is your life, your body, and your quirk! You don’t want to let your dad control you but you are letting him control you right now! You are letting his actions dictate your own. It’s your own power todoroki and if we fight in the tournament I expect you to use it all. Or else you let your father win” Izuku says before leaving the hallway they were in, leaving todoroki alone.

In the Cafeteria, bakugo sits with lucas, Izuku, Travis, and Toga. Monoma walks up to their table.
“What do you want copycat?” Bakugo asks annoyed

“It is no secret that I hate your class. You guys are nothing but self-center jerks who think you are better than us-” monoma starts

“Thats a very self-center thought process but go off” Toga adds
“But I wanted to apologize for the things I said to you during the cavalry battle. My intent was to get you angry enough that you'd make a mistake and lose. In the end you used your anger to win so I brought my failure upon myself. I wasn’t expecting you to have such control. Also, I have nothing against quirkless people. Just wanted to clear that up.” monoma continues

“Whatever, but I’ll this one more time so you know I mean it,” Bakugo said standing up and looking at monoma

“You bring up Izuku ever again and I will kill you.” bakugo promised before sitting down while monoma began to walk away

“Bakugo what did he say? What was this about Izuku?” Lucas asked worriedly

“Yeah, are you ok?” Izuku asked before standing up and looking at monoma

“What did you say to him?!” Izuku asked angrily causing monoma and a couple of the tables to turn around and look at them

Mina was sitting at a table nearby and joined in, whispering “Oh that class 1B kid was talking about the sludge villain incident and mentioned a friend Bakugo’s who died” to izuku.

“Hiro you ghosty bastard calm the f*ck down” Bakugo urged

“No!” Izuku began walking towards Monoma

“I understand that you have some idiotic hatred for class 1A but that is no excuse for you to bring up someone's past trauma! And then think a half-assed apology would cut it! I dont care what purpose your words serve, insulting someone or their friends is not the way to be a hero!” Izuku said still walking toward Monoma

“Idiotic hatred? My class and I’s dislike for class 1A is perfectly justified. You are nothing but self-centered brats who thinks that because you fought villains you are better than everyone else!” monoma explained

“How f*cking dense are you? I have no idea where you got the idea that class 1A thinks they are better just because they cheated death. They are just glad they survived an attempt on their life. Sure the class prevailed in the end but you have no idea what it was like out there! You dont get to judge them for something you’ve never experienced!” Izuku explained before going back to sit down at his table.

A little bit later Kaminari and Mineta get the attention of Jiro and momo. Mineta tries convincing them that all the girls are supposed to put on cheerleader uniforms for some cheer battle. Uses lies and threats like getting Mr. Aizawa and Momo almost believed him. A circle of metal appears under Mineta causing him to look down.

“What is this?” He asks causing the other to look down as well the three immediately recognize the substance and it launches up forming a fist and sending Mineta in the air. Immediately after an arrow flies toward Mineta catching his clothes and pinning him to a high point on the walls of the lunchroom.

“What the hell? Lucas what did you do that for?!” Mineta cried

“Dont listen to that perverted loser. He’s lying.” Lucas said dematerializing his bow

The metal fist metal moving over under kaminari

“And kaminari” Lucas continues

“Huh?” He responded nervously

“I expected more from you,” Lucas says as Travis’s metal grabs onto kaminari pulling him up and pinning him to a spot near Mineta. As Travis absorbs the excess metal Aizawa walks into the lunch room to see the incident occur. He looks at Lucas, then Travis, and finally, he looks at Mineta and Kaminari on the wall.

“Mr. Aizawa! Help me! Lucas and Travis trapped us up here for no reason!” Mineta pleaded

“Help you? Help Us! I'm up here too you know!” Kaminari cried

Before Lucas or Travis could defend themselves Aizawa just said “no” and then turned around to walk out getting an upset reaction from Mineta and Kaminari.

“Be glad you didn't get in the top 4 teams, Mineta. I would’ve enjoyed destroying you” Lucas adds causing Mineta to cry even more

Back in the arena

“Get those foam fingers in the air! But before that good news for everyone who didn’t make the finals! Since this is a sports festival we’ve prepared some super fun side games everyone can participate in! We even brought in cheerleaders from America to get your blood pumping! Have fun competing in those side games everyone! After they’re over the sixteen students from the top four teams will be duking it out 1 on 1 in a tournament-style fighting competition! I promise you’re not gonna want to miss these epic matchups! ” Mic announces

“Aw yeah! Finally, get to show what we’re made of! I watch these finals every year and now I'm in them!” Kirishima says excited

“So wait, is it always a tournament?” Mina asks
“ The finals are always a one-on-one competition, but they switch it up all the time. Last year it was a foam sword fighting match” sero explains

“Come closers and draw lots to see who you’re up against. Then enjoy the pleasure of the recreational games before we start! The sixteen finalists have the option of participating in those activities or sitting out to prepare for battle! I’m sure you all want to conserve your stamina. I’ll start with the first place team!” Midnight explains

Ojiro raises his hand “Um excuse me. Sorry but I'm withdrawing” he says

“Ojrio? Now way” Izuku comments

“But this is a rare chance for you to get scouted!” Iida reminds

“It just wouldn’t be right, I barely remember anything from the calvary battle intel the very end of it. I think it was that guy's quirk. I know this is a great opportunity. I wish I could take advantage of it but my conscience won’t let me” Ojiro explains

“Dude, think about this-” Lucas starts but is cut off

“I have, ok? Everyone gave their all in round two! But I was just someone's puppet! No way, I don’t want to advance if don’t even know how I got here. It wouldn’t be fair” Ojiro continues

“Just kill it in the finals and prove you should be there dude” Travis adds

“Yeah, I didn’t do much in the battle either” Mina notes

“ that’s not it! I’m talking about my pride here! I refuse to give that up!” Ojiro states

“Nirengeki Shoda, from class 1B I think I should withdraw for the exact same reason. Regardless of how strong I am, this isn’t how I wanted to get here! It would go against the values of the festival to advance without earning my spot!” Shoda explains

“Listen to these guys! They’re so manly!” Kirishima says tears in his eyes

“Well now, here's a weird turn of events” Mic comments

“We’ll have to see what midnight has to say about all this, she is the one in charge” Aizawa informs

“This sort of talk is incredibly naive my boys! That turns me on! Shoda! Ojiro! You’re withdraw!” Midnight announces

“Now let's see, we’ll have to move up two students from the 5th place team” Midnight inform
“As cool as it would be to fight in the tournament, Toga and I will pass. You can take Mei hatsume and choose from the 6th place team.” Travis announces

“We were frozen most of the time. Honestly, we barely did anything in the cavalry battle. Isn't that right?” kendo says getting nods from her friends

“You should choose from the team that fought the whole time. Team tetsutetsu!” kendo suggests

“Kendo!” tetsutetsu said in surprise

“I'm not doing this as a favor. It’s just fair” Kendo explained

“Seriously you guys! Thank you!!” tetsutetsu cries

“And so tetsutetsu and hatsume advance to the final! Let's look at the bracket my dears these are your opponents!” Midnight explains

Tetsutetsu vs kirishima

“Seriously how does this keep happening?” the two yell at each other

Momo vs Lucas

“I'll give it my all” Momo declares

“Will it be enough?” Lucas responds

Mina vs Aoyama

“Mon Cheri, I’m afraid it’s the end of the road for you” Aoyama states

“I can’t wait to melt your butt!” Mina responds

And Iida vs Mei, Uraraka vs Bakugo, Tokoyami vs denki, and Hiro vs shinso

“That is you right? Hiro Midori?” Shinso asks walking behind

Izuku turns around to face him and nods

“A pleasure, so are you excited?” Shinso asks as Izuku was about to respond Ojrio uses his tail to block Izuku's mouth while saying “Not so fast!” causing shinso to chuckle before walking away. Ojiro releases Izuku who turns around and asks
“Ojiro, what's the deal?”

“You can’t say a word to him.” Ojiro states

“Uraraka? Who the hell is that?” Bakugo asks

“Seriously? You’ve sat at our table during lunch for the past couple of weeks and you don’t know my name?” uraraka asked offended

“Oh, pink cheeks, I’m fighting you” Bakugo adds

“Hey legs, you’re Iida right?” Hatsume asks walking up to Iida

“Correct! I’m Tenya Iida” Iida response

“Oh! That’s perfect! I have something nice for you!” Mei adds

“Ok! Let’s press pause for a momentary interlude! Before the battles begin it’s time for some boss bounty side games! First a scavenger hunt!” Mic announces

The students run around the arena picking up cards and looking for the item listed. Meanwhile, Monoma leans up against a wall and comments
“What a joke! They’re actually taking these side games seriously? As usually, those class 1A idiots need to get their priorities in check”

Kendo calls out to monoma and says “If you aren’t playing come with me”

“Okay?” he responds confused

Kendo holds up a card that says perverse person.

“Uh, I think you have the wrong impression of me, kendo” Monoma says nervously

“Trust me, this fits!” she responds

While the games were meant to allow the students to relax those in the finals couldn’t. Some made plans, some rest their bodies, some hyped themselves up, and others tried to drown out their thoughts. Eventually, the side games were over and Cemetoss used his quirk to make a rectangular arena for the students to fight in.

“Thank you Cemetoss! Hey, sports fans! Are you ready? After all the action you've already witnessed it’s time for the real battles to begin! Can you feel the excitement? Our competitors are on their own now! Sometimes heroes only have only themselves to rely on! Heart, skill, strength, wisdom, courage! You’ll have to use all these things to rise to the top! Alright, audience let's cut to the good stuff and not delay these finals any longer! Welcome our first fighters! Lucas Lycan from the hero course verse Momo Yaoyorozu also from the hero course! The rules are simple! Immobilize your opponent or force them out of the ring! You can also win by getting the other person to cry, uncle! Bring on the injuries cause we have our very own recovery girl waiting on stand-by! So put your morals aside and don’t be afraid to play dirty! But of course, no life-threatening crap folks. That’s not allowed, real heroes use their powers to throw villains in jail not kill them!” Mic explains

“I’ll stop anyone who tries to get too rough” Cementoss adds sitting down in a cement chair near the field.

“You ready? Begin!” Mic announces

Momo Immediately creates a Staff and Sheild. Lucas doesn’t move, he has his pilot gear materialized but his helmets off.

“You know this is an interesting match up considering the similarity in our quirks” Lucas starts

“Quiet Lucas, your words won’t distract me” momo states

“Alright,” Lucas says putting his helmet on as BT lands in the arena. Lucas embarks and BT unequips his weapon. Simply walking towards momo who creates a canon and fires at BT who forms a particle wall blocking the attack. She keeps firing lowering the particle wall's integrity before it disappears. Momo fires another round that hits BT severely damaging the left side of his torse and removing his left arm. BT fires a rocket at the Cannon destroying it and sending Momo back. BT falls to his knees.

“Power low, DataCore function offline. Serekit unlocked” BT says before Lucas jumps out and removes the head of BT. Lucas takes out the Datacore and stores it on his waist. He removes the smart pistol and data knife as momo attacks him from behind. Before she can hit him he phases away. He appears behind her attacking with the knife. She blocks the attack with her shield sending him back. Lucas holds up the smart pistol and fires off a few shots each blocked by the shield but not before damaging it. Momo goes in for another attack knocking the smart pistol out of his hand. She drops the shield and just goes into the attack with her staff. Lucas materializes a staff, the two fight back and forth for a bit before Lucas knocks momo back and his staff folds out into a bow. He materializes an arrow and fires it at momo, it wraps her in wires causing her to fall to the ground. She creates a blade that cuts her free, she grabs that blade and goes to attack lucas who blocks her attack with a particle shield he makes.

“I'm sorry Momo” Lucas states before activating stim and speeding past her. He continues to zip around confusing Momo until he zips behind her this time grabbing her and moving her straight out of bounds, she falls to the ground from the speed.

“Yaoyorozu is out of bound! Lucas moves onto the next round!” Midnight announces

“No hard feeling, huh?” Lucas asks holding his hand out to help her up.
“Your quirk works from blueprints, right? You need them in your mind to make the thing. I need to know the molecular structure of the stuff I make before I make it. There are certain things I know from heart, but my hero costume is equipped with a book of things that are useful to make. How do you keep track of useful blueprints?” Momo asks as Lucas helps her up.

“I use this” Lucas said pointing to his right forearm as his pilot gear dematerializes. Under his gear on his right forearm is a bracelet that covers most of his forearm.

“My quirk allows me to make and control technology. When I control it I can connect to it. Items like my bow and some arrows I have memorized. But more complex blueprints are stored on this hard drive. My pilot gear, complex arrows, and other tools. All of the blueprints related to BT are stored on his Datacore.” Lucas explains

“Interesting, it might be helpful to switch to a more digital version of my book. It can store more stuff and be easier to access. Thank you for your cooperation” Momo says

Meanwhile, in the halls, as Todoroki prepares for his next match, his father appears to him.

“What do you want?” Todoroki asks

“You’re acting disgracefully shoto. If you had simply used the power on your left side. You would’ve had an overwhelming victory in both of the first rounds! It’s time to stop this childish rebellion of yours! You have a duty to surpass that imbecile All Might. Do you understand what I’m saying? You are different from your siblings, you’re my greatest masterpiece. So use the power I gave you and win this.” Endeavor explains

“Is that all you have to say to me, you bastard? This quirk isn’t yours and if I use it won’t be because you told me to. I won’t give you that satisfaction.” Todoroki responds by walking out to his next match

“Enough standing around! Walking into the ring, around the next player! He’s got skills but at the expense of some creepy-looking elbows! From the hero course, it’s Hanta Sero! Verse! An early front-runner in the competition who’s way too strong for his own good! Shoto Todoroki! And now for the second match of the finals! Ready? Let's go!” Mic announces

“I don’t really feel like I can win this fight but man I don’t feel like losing either!” Sero says quickly sending tape towards Todoroki wrapping him in it. Sero then uses that tape to swing todoroki around

“Woah! Todoroki is close to being out of bounds! A brilliant surprise from the underdog! Way to go sero! “ Mic comments

“Apologises,” todoroki says before Ice spread out from his feet shooting up and creating a massive glacier that covers a large section of the arena shaking the stadium and freezing sero in place.

“Um, don’t you think you went overboard? ” Sero asks

“Tell the truth sero, can you move at all?” Midnight said half covered in ice

“Are you kidding obviously not! My body is freezing!” Sero stammers out

“Sero has been immobilized! Todoroki advances to the second round!” Midnight announces

The crowd begins chanting “Nice try”

“Sorry, it was a bit much. I was angry is all” Todoroki says melting sero out of the ice.

The stadium is cleared of ice and the next battle starts.

“Next in the arena, we have Tokoyami Fumikagi from the hero course verse Denki Kaminari! Also from the hero course! Begin!” Mic announces

“Indestiminate shock! 1.2 million volts!” Denki yells sending a burst of electricity over the arena.

“Dark shadow!” Tokoyami yells

“Got it!” it responds

Dark shadow protects tokoyami from the burst, Denki fries his brain leaving him blabbing in the arena. Dark shadow retracts after the attack. Tokoyami just pushes the dumb Denki out of bounds.

“Kaminari is out of bound! Tokoyami advances to the next round!” Midnight announces

The next battle

“Let’s keep pumping out these battles and move on! Time for the next two students to duke it out! He’s the kid with engines in his legs! Tenya Iida from the hero course! Verses! A fully equipped gadget dynamo! The support courses Mei Hatsume!” Mic Announces

Iida steps into the arena with support gear on

“Hero course students can’t use support gear unless they have to. And you didn’t fill out any of the proper paperwork for that!” Midnight explains

“Ah, I didn’t know that was the rule! Aoyama got to wear his belt so It was fine!” Iida explained

“He turned in the proper forms!” Midnight response

Iida bows and says “I apologize mama! It’s just my heart was moved by my opponent's sportsmanship! Even though she was from the support course she wanted this to be as even of a match as possible since she made it this far! To have a fair fight! So she offered to give me this equipment, I respect her integrity! That is why to honor her I would like to wear this gear!” Iida explains

“Such youthful vigor! I’ll Allow it” Midnight says

“Really?” Mic asks

“I guess if everyone’s in agreement it’s okay. Right?” Aizawa says

“Well if everyone is on the same page let's begin the fight!” Mic announces

Iida begins running towards Mei. Who starts speaking her voice playing on the speakers she’s wearing.

“ bet you love how fast that gear makes you? Huh, Iida?”

“Hey now” Mic says

“Is she wearing speakers?” Aizawa asks

“ Don’t your legs feel lighter than usual? That’s to be expected! I designed those leg parts to specifically increase the wearer's speed and mobility!”

Iida gets close to grabbing Mei but a piston system she is wearing kicks her out of the way and causes Iida to trip, but the support gear he’s wearing keeps him balanced.

“ but of course, I can still easily evade you with my hydraulic attachments!”

Iida runs at her from the back the pistons doing the same thing.

“I’ve got sensors in every direction! It’s impossible to sneak up on me!”

Iida trips again the system on him keeping him balanced

“Look at how adeptly Iida changed his course! All thanks to the ingenious auto balancer I created! It keeps the wearer from falling unless they want to! And there is absolutely no lag time! It’s equipped with a 32-axis gyro sensor!”
“I thought you said you wanted this to be a fair fight?” Iida asked

Hatsume jumps over Iida

“Hahahaha that’s right I’m practically flighting through the air! These electro shoes use electromagnetic induction on both feet! They are perfect for evasive maneuvers or just keeping things light!”

Hatsume lands and Iida charges her again. She turns around and fires a net gun at him.

“A capture gun to use against villains! The nets are loaded into small cartridges! You fire up to five before having to reload! And all of these items were developed by yours truly! Mei hatsume! Support course prodigy! So to any support companies out there looking for new recruits, the choice is clear! You want me! Again I’m Mei Hatsume that H-a-t-s-u-m-e!”

10 minutes later

“That was fun but I think I’ve shown off everything I’ve wanted to! I suppose it’s time for me to wrap this show up” Mei said stepping out of bounds

“Uh, Hatsume stepped out of bounds! So Iida advances to the next round!” Midnight says

“I can’t believe I let you trick me!” Iida yelled

“Sorry about that! I need to use you to make a name for myself!”

“Damn, her inventions are impressive. As cool as my own tech. I might have to recommend her to my father's company. Although I doubt he doesn’t already know” Lucas notes

“How would you even know what’s impressive!? You only steal technology from a beloved video game!” Mineta said acting like he caught lucas in a trap.

“Mineta, my quirks need me to know a blueprint of the technology I create. Do you think there are just blueprints out there for working Titanfall equipment? f*ck no I made those blueprints myself. Designed them all off the game models but had to figure out how it would work using my actual brain. Something you would know if you used yours and remembered what I told you at the USJ” Lucas explained

Mineta backed away.

“We’re gonna jump right into the 5th match! Let’s how the clowny costume serves some kind of purpose! It’s yuga Aoyama from the hero course! Verse! Is there some kind of purpose for those things sticking out of her head? From the same class Mina Ashido! Now! Let’s get started! begin!” Mic Announces
Aoyama beings firing his laser, and Mina dodges and uses her acid to slide along the field.

“We were on the same team during combat training! So I know all about your quirk Aoyama!” Mina explains

“I can say the same thing about you!” Aoyama responds

“Sure but there's a big difference!” mina says jumping over a laser

“I know your weakness!” Mina says waiting for an opening where Aoyama pause because of his nausea. He does and she throws acid damaging it.

“No! Not my precious belt!” Aoyama said pulling up with pants as they were also damaged.

With Aoyama distracted Mina slides in and uppercuts Aoyama knocking him out.

“Aoyama has fainted! The winner of this match is Ashido!” midnight announces

“Dang Aoyama went down hard! Thats the wildest victory if I’ve ever seen it, sports fans!” Mic announces

Aoyama is pulled out of the arena by medical bots and the next match is started

“Now let's not let this hot streak cool! Time to move on to the 6th match!”

Down in the hall connected to the arena Izuku prepares for his match with shinso.

“Hey! Sorry I haven't said hi yet. You’ve been doing great and I just wanted to congratulate you!” All Might said walking over to Izuku

“Oh, Yagi! Thanks! I’m a little nervous about this match. Ojiro tells me Shinso quirks works if I respond to him. Some sort of hypnosis quirk. It’s really cool if you think about mutter mutter mutter mutter” Izuku said

“Damn kid you really haven't changed much since that day on the rooftop.” All Might notes

“I believe I have. I’m not scared to fight Shinso I'm scared he’s going to provoke me. All I’ve been doing these past 10 months is running on impulse. If he says anything to upset me I will most likely react” izuku explains

“Don’t be too hard on yourself. Listen I wanted to inform you that the offer to take One for All isn't off the table. So far the most impressive fighter here has been you. Minus Young Todoroki’s insane ice show earlier.” All Might Informs

“Again, yagi. As flattered as I am that you would consider me your number one choice I'm sure you have better options. Besides thanks to Eraserhead, I now have the chance to be in a hero school and become a fully legal hero with my own quirk! Not to sound rude but I want to take the quirks” Izuku explains

“Nonsense you aren’t being rude! If anything I am for continuing to push. Your determination is admirable. Don’t forget you have to help me find a new successor. Now go out there and win this!” All Might says

Chapter 11: Tournament battles part 2

Chapter Text

“Introducing our next fighters we have the ghostly transfer student Hiro Midori going into class 1A! Verse! Hitoshi Shinso from general studies!” Mic introduces

“So you can just give up huh? In a way, this is a test of how strong your spirit is. If you know what you want your future to hold for you. You can't worry about what other people think!” Shinso starts

“Ready? Begin!” Mic announces

“That monkey was going on about his pride earlier. But I just think he’s an idiot for throwing away his chance like that!” Continues

Izuku growls then charges toward shinso yelling “Dont you talk about him that way!” he stops in his tracks as his eyes go white.

“That’s it, I win.”

“What? Hey hey, what’s the dealio? The fight has just begun and Hiro Midori is completely frozen!” Mic comments

“Argh! I warned him not to say anything!” Ojiro says in frustration

“What isn't Midori moving?” Iida asks

“Come on hiro!” Uraraka urges

“This will be fun” Lucas comments

“What does that bastard have some sort of hypnotic power? Doesn’t matter Hiro will beat that guy!” bakugo comments

“Hiro Midori isn’t moving a single muscle! And what’s will that look on his face? Could this be a quirk at work? Hitoshi Shinso somehow has Hiro Midori completely stunned! He didn’t stand out in the first r pounds at all but it’s possible Shinso is crazy powerful! How could’ve imagined this turn of events?! That’s the festival for you!” Mic Comments

“This is a perfect example of why the entrance exam isn't rational,” Aizawa adds

“Huh? why‘s that?” Mic asks

“Since we’ve been on the individual matches I had information compiled on the final competitors. Shinso failed the practical exam to get into the hero course. Since he also applied for general studies he probably figured that would happen. His quirk is incredibly strong, but that entrance test consisted of fighting foe villains. Robots, it gave a huge advantage to those with physical super powers they could show off. Despite his abilities shinso never stood a chance at passing.” Aizawa explains

“So here we are. You’re lucky to have been so blessed Hiro Midori. Now turn around and walk out of bounds like a good little hero.” Shinso says as Izuku turns around and walks towards the outbound line.

“Uh, what? AH! Midori is obeying him! “ Mic comments

“Hitoshi Shinso! His quirk is Brainwashing, when an opponent answers his question it flips a switch in their minds forcing them to do whatever he says! Not every question does it though. He only brainwashes when he wants to.” Mic explains as narrator

Black smoke begins to cover the floor of the arena as clouds cover the top of the arena. The stadium lights are the only source of visibility. From the smoke, laughing can be heard as two black cloaked figures rise with childish voices.

“Deals with the damned”

“Deals in the land”

“Bless this little man”

“But why bother, why not another?”

“The debts we owe, the debt we share”

“Let this act clear the air”

“This little hero saves”

“This little hero kills.”

“The dead he commands”

“To save his thrills”

“Sending chills”

“Churning mills”

“Release him from his hell”

“Woah Woah! what in horror movie hell is going on here?” mic comments

The two creatures wrap around Izuku laughing as they do. Izuku stops and he turns his head to look at shinso the singular act blowing away the cloud cover and black smoke. The two creatures disappear while still laughing.

“Sorry shinso but paranormal activity is my thing,” Izuku says before sinking into the ground

“Izuku Midoriya, or Hiro Midori! His quirk Paranormal Activity. If you've seen or heard a ghost do it then Izuku can do it too! The most common things he can do are go invisible, pass through objects, fly short distances, and levitate objects. His powers go way beyond that though!” Mic Explains as narrator

Shinso begins looking around as Izuku appears behind him. Shinso turns around and attacks Izuku trying to push him back. Izuku looks him in the eye and says
“Paranormal Activity, nightmare”

“What? Ah!” Shinso falls to the ground past Izuku landing out of bounds
“Release. ” Izuku said

“Shinso is out of bound Hiro moves on to the next round!” Midnight announces

“What was that?” Shinso asked angrily

Izuku just walks off.

“Seriously! I want to know what the hell that was!” Mic comments

As shinso leaves, the arena General studies calls out to cheer him up. They point out a group of pros who are talking about how well he did.

“Alright, our second to the last matchup contains two completely redundant quirks! One of them is a passionate manly fighter made of steel! The hero courses tetsutetsu tetsutetsu! Verse! A passionate manly fighter made of rock! The hero courses Ejiro Kirishima! Can’t wait to see how this one ends! begin!” Mic introduces

The two go at it clashing strong quirk vs strong quirk.

Meanwhile, In waiting room 2, Uraraka was preparing for her battle with Bakugo as Iida entered the room.

“Hey, Iida you did great out there!” Uraraka complimented

“Oh, Uraraka- what’s with that face!?” Iida asked concerned

“My face? Oh, it’s nothing! I guess I’m not great at hiding how nervous I am” uraraka confesses

“I get that. You are going up against bakugo after all. Not exactly an easy match” Iida notes

“Yeah, I'm scared, but you know after seeing your match I feel a little better!” Uraraka says

“What’s that suppose to mean?” Iida asked

Before Uraraka could answer Izuku passes through the door and Iida not noticing them just walked in and began to pace around the room.

“Those brats! Though they could repay their debt in the middle of a school event! All of that was filmed! Everyone saw them everyone heard what they said! Oh no they heard the things they said! Everyone heard the things they said! The things they said. The things they said. The things they said” Izuku rambled

“Midori!? Are you alright?” Iida asked

“Ahh! Uraraka! Iida!” Izuku screamed falling back and into the floor

“Uh, Hiro? Are you alright” Uraraka asked

Izuku climbs out of the floor and sits down at the table putting his head down.

“Midori? Is everything okay?” Iida asked urgently

“f*cking rhyme-y bastards” Izuku mumbles

“Are you ok hiro? You are starting to sound a lot like Bakugo” Iida comments

“I’m fine I just can’t believe those brats did that” Izuku notes lifting his head up to look at the two.

“Oh hey, Uraraka, you’re going up against Bakugo next, right? That will be an interesting match up” Izuku asks

“Oh, yeah” Uraraka responds nervously

“It’s ok, I don’t think Bakugo would use the full force of his explosions against a girl,” Iida assures

“No, he would. Even if you weren’t against Bakugo. This is the Sports Festival and no one here will be holding back. He won’t hold back no matter who his opponent is.” Izuku explains

In the arena, Tetsutetsu and Kirishima are still fighting each other. Each blow basically bounces off the other. After minutes of the fight going nowhere, the two charges at each other, and both knock each other out.

“Woah? The hard head both looked KOed! But who is the winner?” Mic comments

“ They’re both down! It’s a draw! When the contestants recover from this battle the winner will be determined by a simple contest! Perhaps arm wrestling!” Midnight announces

“While we wait for Tetsutetsu and Kirishima to recover we’ll move on to the next battle!” Mic announces

In the students stands Izuku and Iida return to watch the match.

“Oh hey, Hiro! That match-up of yours was honestly really terrifying! I’m glad I don’t have to fight you” Kaminari comments

“Oh yeah don’t worry you wouldn’t have to worry about fighting me in any case” Izuku adds

“The match is about to start” Iida informs

“ ribbit, this might be the second most disturbing match up” Tsu comments

“I know, I almost don’t want to watch it” Jiro adds

“The 8th and final battle of the first round of matches! He was kind of a hot shot in middle school and just look at the determined face! From the hero course Katsuki Bakugo! Verse! The one I’m personally rooting for Also from class 1A Ochaco Uraraka!” Mic Introduces

“I hope you understand I won’t hold back, pink cheeks” Bakugo informs

“Neither will I,” Uraraka says

“Let the 8th match, Begin!” Mic Announces

Uraraka immediately charges toward bakugo keeping low to the ground. Bakugo sends a right hook throwing an explosion at her that covers her in a cloud of smoke.

“ Uraraka!” Iida yell worriedly

“He blasted her” Mineta comments

“ oh, looks like Bakugo is not planning on showing her any mercy!” adds

“Would any you?” Lucas asks

From the smoke Bakugo sees what he thinks in Uraraka and attacks but as the smoke clears he realizes Uraraka threw her UA pe jacket as a distraction.

“Woah! She threw the jacket over as a decoy! What incredibly quick thinking!” Mic comments

Uraraka attacks from behind but bakugo quickly turns around and throws a massive explosion that sends her back.

“Look at that reaction time” Sero comments

“Seriously the dude’s insane, you can’t get the drop on him. And since uraraka can’t use her quirk on him unless she touches him. His lightning fast reflexes put her at a huge disadvantage” Kaminari comments

Uraraka doesn’t relent and neither does Bakugo. Uraraka charges at him keeping low to the ground and he throws another explosion keeping her back. This pattern keeps repeating itself.

“Looks like she’s not resting between attacks despite being exploded. The poor girl” Mic comments

“Her faint earlier didn’t work so now she’s getting desperate” Someone comments

“You idiots, look closer” monoma adds

“Hey, shouldn’t one of the teachers step in?”

“Yeah this is too rough”

“This is shameful! Listen kid if you really want to be a hero! Then stop acting like a bully! If you’re so good just send her out of bounds! Stop toying with the girl and just end this match!” Some random hero says

“Yeah, you heard the guy!” Another hero comments

The crowd begins booing bakugo

“The crowd is now booing bakugo! And honestly, I kind of agree with what-” Mic is cut off by Eraser's head elbowing him

“Hey woah? What the crap?” he responds

“Where is the man who started this uproar? Are you a pro? Because if you’re being serious you can go home and hang up your cape. I’d suggest looking into another career. Bakugo’s fierceness is an acknowledgment of his opponent's strength. He knows she deserves to have made it this far. So he’s making sure he does whatever it takes to keep her at bay and come out on top!” Aizawa explains

“I think it’s about time. Thank you bakugo, for keeping your eyes focused on me” uraraka says

“I don’t blame bakugo for not noticing, but it’s embarrassing for a Pro to boo and not realize what’s going on from the stands. She kept low to the ground as she moved which meant Bakugos blast tore up the floor of the ring. Creating weapons for her. And then she kept him focused on her by attacking relentlessly without rest. Rendering him oblivious.” monoma explains causing the stands to look up and see the field of floating rocks

Uraraka puts her hands together and the field drops in an instant.

“A meteor shower?!” Mic questions

“Now you notice!” Aizawa adds

The rocks quickly fall towards bakugo who stands still just raising his arm. Uraraka charges toward him almost getting close enough before a massive explosion obliterates all the rocks and creates so much wind it sends Uraraka back while also affecting the crowd.

“I’d figure you’d have some sort of plan to beat me. You’re not an idiot after all” Bakugo says

“Bakugo bangs out a huge demonstration of power! He blasted apart Urarakas finishing move and remains untouched” Mic comments

Uraraka struggles to get up, but she does and she turns to charge at him.

“Alright let’s get serious, Uraraka!” Bakugo said charging toward her, but he stops noticing her stumble.
Uraraka continues to charge but falls, Midnight quickly comes in and checks on her.

“Uraraka is KOed. Bakugo advances onto the next round!” Midnight announces

“And that’s it for the first round! Man, I was really pulling for her. Oh yeah I guess bakugo is moving on” Mic announces

“You’re suppose to be unbiased you know.” Aizawa reminds

“Let’s try and forget that depressing outcome! With that the first round is complete! We’re taking a quick break and then we’re back with more matches!” Mic announces
In waiting room two, Bakugo, and Lucas walk in to see Uraraka and Izuku sitting down. Uraraka recovered from the battle.

“Oh Uraraka, you’re looking better” Lucas comments

“Of course she is, Pink cheeks is strong” Bakugo adds

“All the heroes commenting on bakugo’s actions were insulting both of you. Definitely seemed none of them had any faith in you, uraraka. Which makes me incredibly disappointed in them.” Izuku said

“While it ended up failing, the move you pulled with the floor and the rocks was really impressive” Lucas complimented

“Yeah, I have to be honest, I was straining myself with that blow” bakugo confessed

“WOAH!” Mics comments can be heard from inside the waiting room

In the Arena tetsutetsu and Kirishima are having a tie breaker match up. An arm wrestle battle to see who moves on.

“We are about to learn who the true winner of the 7th match is! Kirishima? Or Tetsutetsu? Whoever prevails in this Arm wrestling match will advance to the second round! Let's go!” Mic informs

The two are locked in an almost eternal hold intel Tetsutetsus's arm gives out and Kirishima wins.

“Kirishima is the winner! Add him to the bracket!” Midnight announces

“YEAH!!!!!” Kirishima yells

“Kirishima won his spot in the second round!” Mic announces

“Awe damn my metal defenciany. Should’ve eaten more Iron this morning” Tetsutetsu noted kneeling down and holding his arm.

“Hey man. You put up a good fight” Kirishima said holding his arm out to help Tetsutetsu up, the latter accepting the help.

“Oh so chivalrous!” Midnight squeals

“No we have a full blossom for the next round of the tournament! Let’s get the party started now! You dig?!” Mic announces

In the waiting room with Izuku and co.

“Ah sh*t I got to go fight prince Zuko” Lucas comments

“Good luck” Izuku wishes

Lucas exits the room and Bakugo makes his way back to the stands, Uraraka staying behind. Izuku left the room and was heading to the bathrooms when Endeavor turn the corner.

“Ah, you’re Midori, right? I was looking for The Lucas kid. Do you happen to know where he is?” Endeavor asked

“Um, no but He’d probably be preparing a flash entrance as he usually does. If you excuse me I have to be somewhere” Izuku responds nervously walking away.

“Ok, thanks for your help” Endeavor coldly responds

“I can feel the anticipation in the stadium! And thats because the second round's first match is gonna be epic! It's the guy who one his last fight by a landslide and literally left half the Audience frozen! The hero courses Shoto todoroki! Verse! The kid who's been living every Titanfall fan's dream! The hero courses Lucas Lycan! Both the heroes in training have ben front runners in the sports festival! But which one will advance onto the next round? Prepare for Lucas Verse Todoroki! Begin” Mic announces

“I hope you listened to what Hiro told you, because if you want to have a chance at winning this fight you will need to turn up the heat” Lucas said materializing his pilot gear and a bow.

Todoroki opens by sending an Ice attack directly at Lucas who uses his jump kit to dodge. Lucas forms an arrow and fires it todoroki who dodges the attack the arrow hits the ground creating a patch of ice.

“You plan on attacking me with my own element?” Todoroki asked mockingly

“Yes,” Lucas answered firing another arrow that Todoroki makes an Ice wall to block. The arrow simply adds more ice to the wall. Lucas fires another arrow that melts through the Ice wall showing that todoroki isn’t behind it anymore. Lucas throws out 4 ticks that attach themselves to all the chunks of ice left in the arena. Instead of exploding each tick generates heat melting all the ice and clearing the field. Once todoroki was in the open he sent another ice attack that Lucas dodges by phase shifting. Lucas appears behind todoroki grabbing onto him and phase shifting again. When the two return Lucas is slamming Todoroki down near the border. Todoroki quickly recovers and evades the hand-to-hand attacks Lucas is sending. As Todoroki was backing away Lucas forms another arrow that hits todoroki's left side starting to freeze him and adding to the freezing backlash Todoroki was receiving from his own quirk. Todoroki started to slow down, but he broke out of the ice and sent another attack toward Lucas who phase shifted away losing his bow. Lucas appeared on the opposite side of the arena away from todoroki with a rifle in his hands. Todoroki fired another wave of ice that blew apart from an energy blast from the rifle Lucas had.

In the students stands class A is freaking out a little bit.

“Is that a gun? Did lucas just make a freaking gun?” Mineta asked nervously

“I don’t think that should be allowed,” Iida says

“There’s a teacher here whose quick is basically gun I don’t want to hear you complaining about that” Izuku informs

On the field, Lucas fires another blast, one that hits todoroki but instead of heat like the last one, this one freezes todoroki more on impact.

“Seriously man, you should listen to hiro.” Lucas comments firing off and couple more cold shots that hit todoroki slowing him down further.

“What are you talking about?!” Todoroki said throwing another barrage of Ice that is shattered by Lucas's gun.

“Your trembling, while you may have some resistance to cold there is till a limit to what your body can take. You could make up that by using the heat from your left but even after what Hiro said, you refuse. You’ve been doing just fine making past these games but you’ve never had to fight someone also using ice attacks. So the effects are speeding up and the more you block them the more you use your own ice it also speeds up the effect!” Lucas explains

“Shut up” Todoroki sends another barrage of ice that gets countered by Lucas's heat blast.

“I don’t know the reason you hold back and I might never know but You don’t have the right to be #1 if you won’t use your full power!” Lucas yelled as his gear dematerializes the ground around him glowing purple as hard light constructs surround lucas making the shape of a massive robot different from BT. A different mech suit form completely surrounds lucas looking more proportionate to a human. After finishing materialization the robot held out its right hand and began to speak.

“I was hoping to help you, Todoroki. You are my classmate and it seems like you’ve been through a sh*t storm. But it’s going to end here my friend. Should’ve listened to Hiro's statement” Lucas said as the robot the hands produce are a large blast of cold air sending a thick cloud of ice toward Todoroki

“Hiro’s statement? What is he- my power. I didn’t realize how much I’ve forgotten” Todoroki questions before his left side bursts into flames melting the frost build-up. Todoroki out stretches his left arm and sends a line of flame towards the robot, it nuetralizes the ice blast and scorches the paint on the robot.

“Woah is that!?” Mic comments and is cut off by

“YESS SHOTO! Have you finally accepted your purpose? That’s very good! This is the dawn of a new era for us! With my blood in your veins, you’ll surpass me! And live up to the reason I created you!” Endeavor yells walking down to the very edge of the stands

“Endeavor shouts words of, Encouragement? What turning father!’ Mic comments

“Wait your father is the hero Endeavor?” Lucas stops in his tracks and asks

Shotos fire goes out and he looks at Lucas’s robot form and tilts his head.

“You- You didn’t know that? This entire time? If you heard what Hiro said then you must’ve heard-” Todoroki said shocked but is cut off

“Listen I’m sorry it’s just a little hard to believe you’re related to the ugly bastard” Lucas starts
He points to endeavor
“Alright we got the literal flaming piece of #2 hero who I'm sure no sane person would ever call a dilf”
Turns to gesture to shoto
“Compared to class 1As resident pretty boy shoto alright. Forgive me for thinking that you look nothing like your father” Lucas ends

“Thanks I guess,” Shoto says sending a line of ice that climbs up the legs of the robot freezing the lower half.

Lucas breaks out as Shoto charges toward him. Lucas punches the ground near Shoto who grabs onto the robot's arm freezing it in place the rest of the body. Shoto climbs onto the robot making his way to the bots head touching it with his left hand before sending a constant stream of fire that slowly but surely melts the robotic head. The back section of the robot explodes open. Lucas jumps out but is quickly caught up in a line of Ice that todoroki sends down the robots body. Lucas quickly breaks out with heat gloves and turns around to see Shoto jumping at him. Shoto sends an attack of fire toward Lucas who blocks it with a spherical particle shield. Todoroki lands on the shield but bounces off due to its nature. Lucas drops the shield forms a grapple, hooks todoroki, and then pulls slamming todoroki into the ground, todoroki lands out of bounds.

“Todoroki is out of bounds! Lucas moves on to the next round!” Midnight announces

As todoroki and Lucas exit the arena Todoroki is stopped by Endeavor in the hall. Shot doesn’t react.
“What? Not going to tell me to get lost? Even though you lost the match you made progress shoto. I’ll have to teach you to use your fire as it is dangerous to release so much energy But I am proud of you for giving up on this childish rebellion. Now we can get back to what’s important. After you graduate you’ll work by my side. I’ll lead you down the path of the mighty, Shoto” Endeavor says

“I haven’t abandoned anything. You're a fool to think my feeling could be so easily reversed. Instead out there for that one moment. I forgot all about you. Whether that's good or bad, whether thats the right thing to do. I don’t know. Maybe I don’t need you” Shoto said beginning to walk past Endeavor

“Because like I said before. If I used my left side it wasn’t because of you. ” Shoto finished

The match between Iida and tokoyami was quick. Tokoyami opened with dark shadow going for Iida. but Iida quickly opened with reciproburst, moving past Dark shadow at incredible speeds, grabbing onto the Tokoyami and pushing him out of bounds.

“Tokoyami is out of bounds! Iida advances to the next round!” Midnight announces

The battle between Ashido and Izuku was also pretty quick. Ashido tired keeping her distance throwing acid toward Izuku who would dodge. Izuku sunk into the ground and appeared behind Ashido holding out his finger and waving it to the side as Ashido glowed a green hue before flying to the side. She lands out of bounds.

“Ashido is out of bounds! Midori advances onto the next round!” Midnight announces

The next battle between Bakugo and Kirishima drags out a bit. Bakugo throwing an explosion, Kirishima hardening to withstand it. It was a matter of time before one of their bodies would give out and it was Kirishima who faltered, allowing bakugo to send an explosion that knocked Kirishima out.

Meanwhile in waiting room 1, Iida tries calling his brother “Are you there Tensei? It’s tenya.”
“I am currently on a mission and can not answer the phone”
He gets back in response

In another city, The hero Ingenium is running through the city.
“Squad A head north! Squad B check the west side!” Ingenium commands

“Squad A Roger”
Squad B Roger”
He gets in response

Ingenium continues to run through the city passing by and Alleyway before stopping using his speed to jump on a roof before jumping down into the alley.
“No doubt about it! It’s him! I’ve found you! Hero Killer!” He declares

Chapter 12: Tournament battles part 3

Chapter Text

“The first match of the semi-finals! Both have shown incredible control over their quirks. One born from a well-known hero family, Tenya Iida! Verse! The titanfall fan born in a family of fashionistas and support heroes! Lucas Lycan! Begin” Mic announces

Lucas materializes his pilot gear and activates stim and the two speed at each other. Clashing into one another over and over again. After a couple of repeated hits, Lucas stops near the border. Iida stops to look at him before speeding after lucas who presses a button causing foam expands from Iida's back, incasing Iida and keeping him retrained

“ Iida has been immobilized! Lucas advances!” Midnight announces

“Lucas moves on to the finals without even using another massive robot!” Mic Announces

“Our next match-up is the hot head Katsuki Bakugo! Verse! The ghostly Hiro Midori! Begin” Mic Announces

“Damn, we’re fighting each other and you’re not even a pro yet! Got to say My situation has improved drastically since all those months ago.” Izuku said nervously

Bakugo charged toward him throwing an explosion with a right hook. Izuku dodged the explosion by going intangible, he then went solid and grabbed onto Bakugo's arm throwing him over his shoulder and slamming him to the ground. Bakugo got up and quickly threw another explosion sending Izuku back. Izuku sunk into the ground putting bakugo on guard. As Izuku appeared behind bakugo pulling the same move he used on Mina. As Bakugo flew through the air he fixed his position using his explosions and stopped just before the border. Bakugo launched himself towards Izuku, throwing another blast that hit Izuku right in the face. Izuku hit the ground and stood up but refused to turn around. A piece of cloth fell to the floor as Izukus masked had been damaged.

“What? Scared to face me for me real? Huh? Scared to show me who you really are?! I didn’t recognize you at the cemetery or the USJ but do you really think I wouldn’t recognize your voice after spending some much time near you? Huh, Izuku?!” Bakugo asked

Izuku turned around and stared at bakugo and asked “You knew? You knew! How long have you known?” Izuku began attacking bakugo, throwing punch after punch each one bakugo dodged.

“Since lunch, It’s been a while since I’ve heard your voice as Izuku. With that mask on, your hair changed, and the new way you act it was hard to notice. But when you yelled at that class 1B kid you weren’t angry for me. You were angry for yourself. Why? Why didn’t you tell me?” Bakugo explains still dodging attacks

“Why didn’t I tell you the second I was back or more recently? Because I think we both know the answer to the first one! As for the second one, I was obviously nervous! You mourned my death for so long that I was sure you would’ve hated me if I told you the truth.” Izuku responds as the two switches up the routines, sending blows back and forth.

In the stands

“What are they doing? They aren’t showcasing their quirks at all. This is unlike both of them.” Mineta comments

Lucas sat silently, noticing Izuku's mask was gone. Meanwhile patrolling the halls of the stadium Toga and Travis in the Vigilante gear notice a screen playing the events.

“Toga, look Izuku lost his mask while he was fighting Bakugo” Travis pointed

“Oh no, do you think Bakugo recognized him?” Toga asked

Back on the field, bakugo throws an explosive punch. “You idiot! I wouldn’t hate you!”

Izuku falls back opting to stay low as bakugo explosions tear up the ground.
“I’m just glad you’re alive you dumb nerd! The old hag would be ecstatic to hear you’re alive. The only question I have is. Do you hate me?” Bakugo asked throwing another explosion

“Of course not I could never hate you,” Izuku said levitating the debris the explosions made and throwing them at Bakugo who blocked them with defensive explosions.

“Of course not? How is that question an “of course not”? All the things I said and did to you. How do you not hate me?” Bakugo asked

“Because I don’t care! Your words meant nothing to me! Sure from the perspective of us once being friends they hurt a little but I never gave up. Nothing could’ve brought me down from my dream, not even you!” Izuku yelled levitating more debris and throwing it at bakugo who blocked it again with an explosion.

“What are they saying?” Kaminari asked

“From up here, it looks like an intense discussion, ribbit” Tsu notes

“Stop bringing up the past now, focus on the f*cking future, and fight me!” Izuku said before sinking into the ground launching up behind Bakugo attacking from the air. Bakugo sent Izuku flying up with an explosion. Izuku stopped mid-air and landed back down and the two charged toward each other. Bakugo was about to send another explosion directly toward Izukus face but hesitated, allowing Izuku to deck him square in the face.

“Come on? That’s the best you got? I’ve fought villains with more fight in them!” Izuku taunts

“Why you little sh*t!” Bakugo yelled and sent another right hook that Izuku dodged, but as Izuku grabbed onto Bakugo’s arm bakugo kneed Izuku in the stomach. As Izuku fell to the floor Bakugo stood over him thinking he had one. But quickly Izuku swept under bakugo legs causing him to fall on his face. Izuku quickly got on top of him and pinned him down.

“Get off me, you sh*t nerd! I’ll blow you to pieces!” Bakugo threatened

“Yeild” Izuku commanded

“Never!” Bakugo yelled sparking up explosions

“Don’t make me put you to sleep, YEILD!” Izuku threatened

“What does that even mean?” Bakugo asked

“It means this” Izuku said making two fingers intangible and phasing them into Bakugo's head. “Sleep,” he says as Bakugo falls unconscious

“Bakugo is KOed! Midori moves on to the next round!” Midnight announces

“Woah he beat bakugo!” Kaminari amazed

“How did he do that?” Mineta asks

“That was a weird fight, ribbit” Tsu comments

“Yeah, one moment they are fighting, the next they’re doing this weird back fourth, then suddenly Hiro has bakugo pinned to the ground. It’s unusual” Jiro says

“Do you think it has something to do with Hiro losing his mask? I don’t know how many of you noticed but the explosion just before their weird back and forth took off Hiro's mask he’s always wearing” Mina points out

“That may be it, does anyone here know why he wears that mask?” Momo asks

“May it’s because he’s too hot” Mina jokes

“Mina! That is very inappropriate behavior! Ramble ramble ramble” Iida scolds

“Iida you really need to learn to chill” Kaminari comments

“I am sorry but I believe it is disrespectful to make such a comment-” Iida is cut off by his phone rings

“I am sorry, excuse me while I take this call,” Iida says before walking away

“I’ve actually seen Hiro’s face before-” Uraraka mentions

“What!?” Mina exclaims

“When?” Jiro asks

“I didn’t first meet him after the USJ. I met him and Toga months ago while I was at the mall.” Uraraka started

“And that’s when you saw his face? What was the first meeting like?” Momo asks

“It wasn’t anything too special. I’m pretty sure I’ve talked about it before. He and Toga saved me from a creep who was getting too close. Afterward, Hiro took the guy's money and we went to a Cafe in the mall. We ordered drinks and talked a bit about wanting to be heroes.” Uraraka explained

“Awesome he’s a vigilante we know. Is he hot?” Mina asks

“Mina!” Momo scolds

“What? It’s a valid question!” Mina defends

“Only to you” Jiro adds

“I have to admit I am curious. About how he looks. Could you describe him, Ochaco?” Tsu asks

“It’s been a while, I’m sure vigilante work has changed him but back then his hair was all green. His face was dotted with freckles and the general look on his face was unsure, maybe even worry? “ Uraraka describes

“Seeing as you are no help I’ll have to figure it out myself” Mina declares

“With the end of that fight, we will be taking one last break before the Final match between Hiro Midori and Lucas Lycan!” Mic Announces

As Izuku was walking toward the waiting room he is approached by Aizawa.

“Midoriya.”

“Yes, Eraser?”

“I wanted to talk to you about what happened in your match with Shinso” Eraser Asked handing Izuku a new mask.

“Oh, I’m sorry they did that, I wouldn’t in normal circ*mstances summon the souls of damned to win a school competition,” Izuku explained

“Souls of the damned? I’ll unpack that later. I wanted to talk about the things they said” Aizawa informed

“The things they said? Oh, sh*t the things they said…..” Izuku realized

“While most people didn’t catch what was said by them, Shinso did. He mentioned that they said “This little hero saves, this little hero kills” Izuku I want you to be honest with me. Have you ever killed someone before?” Aizawa asked

“Yes” Izuku responded without hesitation

“What? Who? How many?” Eraser asked worriedly

“I’ve killed 1 person. The villain who killed my mother.” Izuku confused

“Kid, I’m so sorry you had to run into them in the first place” Eraser apologized

“It’s not your fault,” izuku responded before walking away and putting on the new mask.

“Alright, folks this is the final match of this year's sports festival. You know them well enough by now but one last rad introduction can’t hurt! The technological tycoon of titanic proportions Lucas Lycan from Class 1a! VERSE! The Ghostly ghoul with a hauntingly heroic attitude, Hiro Midori! Begin!” Mic Announces

“PREPARE FOR TITANFALL” The speakers play as BT falls from the sky landing just behind Lucas who materializes his Pilot gear and immediately jumps back into BT.

“Not giving me a chance to monolog? Talk about our friendship and how there can’t be any hard feelings after this fight?” izuku asks

“Nope, can’t let you trick me. I wanna win this fight so I can’t afford distractions. I have to go all out” Lucas responded

“Poor you. It’s a shame I was hoping we'll be able to attribute your loss to phycological distractions. But I guess losing just because I'm better also works” izuku said before Jumping into the ground.

BT began searching around, stomping the ground a few times. Izuku shot up from the ground behind BT who turned around and tried swatting Izuku who blocked it by going intangible. Izuku floats in the area and grabs onto BTs hand as it passes through him. He pulls the hand apart and throws the parts right at the center of the robot. Damaging portions of it.

“Power cell damaged, Power at two thirds” BT notes

Izuku lands on the ground and with his other hand, BT goes in to punch. Izuku stops the punch splitting up the entire arm and section of the torso.

“Arm served, melee and primary weapon abilities compromised” BT notes

One of the Acolyte pods opens up and fires a rocket at Izuku who flips it around aiming for the batteries on his side.

“Battery 2 damaged, Power core damaged. Acolyte pod not viable. Situation dire” BT Notes

An “I know I know I know” can be heard from inside the robot “Activate nuclear ejection”

The top hatch of BT pops open and Lucas flies out entering a tear. BT charges up and explosion as Izuku falls into the ground. The titan self-destructs the head landing in front of Izuku as he emerges. Izuku leans down, grabs the head, and pulls out the data core along with the rest of the SERE Kit. He took the smart pistol threw the data core in the air and aimed for the core before firing. Out of a tear Lucas appears and takes the bullet falling to the ground.

“What the hell? Hiro, what the f*ck is wrong with you?” Lucas yelled

“Did you forget?” Izuku said as the data core he threw turned to dust

“I can make illusions,” Izuku said before placing the real core on the ground

Lucas got off the ground and pulled out a pistol, Izuku recognized it as the wingman. Of course, lucas would pull a wingman.

“The pistol is real tho, as I'm sure you know,” Izuku says before firing off a few rounds that completely miss Lucas

“Auto lock on driven by tech. I control tech” Lucas said snapping his finger as the smart pistol dematerialized in Izukus hands. Lucas aims his arm at Izuku and fired a grapple that Izuku quickly grabbed pulling on sending Lucas falling forward. Izuku quickly Caught lucas kneeing him in the stomach before slamming his head into the ground. As Lucas got up Izuku kicked him back down, ripped the pilot helmet off of him, and stole the wingman from his possession tossing it aside. Lucas tried to attack again but Izuku put him in a chock hold. Lucas pulled his data knife out of its holder and stabbed Izuku in the stomach. Izuku took the knife out and jabbed it into Lucas's jump kit causing the thing to explode separating the two. Lucas enters a tear and reappears behind Izuku ready to punch him from above. Izuku turns around and catches Lucas in mid-air using his telekinesis to throw Lucas back, but not before he snatched the control panel from Lucas’s wrist and snaps it. Lucas gets up and charges at Izuku who dodges causing Lucas's speed to almost send him out of bounds. Izuku catches him with his telekinesis and uses it as a slingshot causing Lucas to fly out of the ring hitting the outside walls of the arena.

“Lucas is out of Bounds! Hiro Midori is the Winner!” Midnight announces causing the crowd to roar.

“ And with that, the final match is officially over! The first-year champion of the UA sports festival is Hiro Midori from the Hero Course!” Mic Announces

Fireworks are set off and in the center of the arena, all the first years gather around.

“The first-year students have completed all the events for the UA Sports Festival! Now it’s time to relax and enjoy the Award Ceremony!” Midnight explains as a puff of smoke appears behind her as the stands rise up.

On the first place stand, Hiro Midori stands, to his right is Lucas sitting on top of BT on the 2nd spot. On Hiro’s left, the 3rd place spot was taken by a mildly pissed Bakugo.

“Where the f*ck is four eyes? He was supposed to be here!” Bakugo asked annoyed

“I believe I heard him say something about a family Emergency” Lucas answers

“Sucks he had to miss it” Izuku comments

“Tenya Iida actually shares the 3rd place Award with Bakugo. But unfortunately, he had to leave for family reasons. Gotta love those familial bonds!” Midnight explained

“Pilot, recent articles mention the Hero Ingenium being attacked and hospitalized by the Hero Killer stain. Time stamps line up with the phone call Iida received Earlier.” BT whispered to Lucas

“Oh damn. I know what it’s like having an older sibling but I can never imagine what I would do if she got hurt. I just hope Iida doesn’t act out because of it” Lucas says

“You have siblings?” Izuku asked surprised

“I have an older sister who moved out by the time I was old enough to remember her. After I turned 5 or 6 She would visit more frequently to bring my niece so we could see them. I haven’t heard from them in a while since we moved. I think my mom keeps up with them, I don’t remember.” Lucas Explains

“Why are important character details being revealed so late in the story? I mean come on this is chapter 12!” Izuku complains

“I don’t see how two family members that I haven't contacted in well over 4 years are considered “Important character details” Also stop breaking the fourth wall. It’s annoying” Lucas comments

“Now! Let’s break out the hardware. Of Course, there’s only one person worthy of distributing the Awards!” Midnight Starts

“HAHAHAHAHA!” All Might distinct laugh can be heard by all, it ignites the stadium in joyish roars!

“Citizens! I am here!-” Announces but the rest of his statement is drowned out by Midnight announcing “All Might the Number One Hero” on the speakers
She apologizes shortly afterward.

“So now that you’re here All Might. Why don’t you start the presentation?” Midnight said holding out the awards

“Young Bakugo. You showed great determination out there. Your ferocious nature and quirk expertise will make you a fine hero. You’ve come a long way since the Sludge Villian. I’m proud of you.” All Might says while placing the metal over his head.

“Whatever….. Thanks” Bakugo responded

All Might approached Lucas who jumps down from BT.

“Young Lucas. You showed great fighting experience and a drive to succeed while also pushing your opponents. Congratulations. And BT this metal goes to you as well. Your ability to work together is a fine skill to have in the future.” All Might said placing the metal around Lucas.

“Noice” Lucas comments

“Thank you” BT notes

All Might walks over to Izuku

“Ah Young Midori. Didn’t really think through that last name huh?” All Might said whispering that last part.

“It was Mic's Idea. I was tired and didn’t care. The alias doesn’t matter now that Katsuki knows.” Izuku replies quietly

“All Might f*cking knew! You told All Might and not me?” Bakugo ask angrily

“I’m sorry. Did shigaraki disintegrate my face in front of you? While the answer might be yes. You guys didn’t know I died intel after I had regenerated. All Might was there when I did regen. “ Izuku explained in a whisper

Bakugo scoffed in response

“Young Midori! Congratulation on winning the festival! You’ve especially come so far and accomplished so much since that day 10+ months ago! Your skills in hand-to-hand combat as well as your quirk proficiency serve as a reminder of your greatness! You will be a fine hero! Perhaps the best!” All Might said while placing the awards around Izuku.

“Here they are! The winners of this year's sports festival! But listen closely! Any of you first years could've ended up standing on these podiums! Think about what you’ve done today! You’ve challenged each other! Learned and climb even closer toward your goals of being pros! I believe this next generation of heroes is proving to be our most promising one yet! So I have one more thing to say! I want everyone to yell it with me! Go Beyond!” All Might says

“PLUS ULTRA!” The crowd yells after him

“Your friend can also be a worthy opponent. The Sports Festival showed us that. We learned a lot about each other and ourselves” Izuku narrated

In class 1-A

“Nice work. You have the next two days of school off to recuperate. I’m sure the pros who watched the festival will want to recruit some of you. We’ll look over the draft forums and update you when you return. Get some rest, you still have alot of training” Aizawa explains

“Yes sir!”

“And one last thing. After the USJ Nedzu decided to amp up security. One of the steps we are taking to further ensure the safety of our students is to keep an eye on them. That is why we are introducing the Heights Alliances dorms. They are optional for now. But if any more incidents occur we might just make them mandatory.” Aizawa explains

“They’re also for us Homeless Vigilantes” Izuku half joked

“Yes, that is the reason for the dorms being implemented sooner rather than waiting for another incident. You can’t just keep sleeping on the streets and your certainly not staying at my house again” Aizawa noted

“Ok, how many times do I have to say I’m sorry for breaking your TV?” Izuku asks

“THATS WHY I HAD TO MAKE A f*ckING TV? Jesus christ Izuku! Stop breaking Mr. Aizawas sh*t!” Lucas yelled

“Izuku?”

“What?”

“I thought his name was Hiro?”

“Oh sh*t. My bad Izuku” Lucas apologized

“Meh. I don’t care anymore. The only reason I wore it was to keep Katsuki from recognizing me.” Izuku said taking off his mask

“My real name is Izuku Midoriya” Izuku announced

“Wait as in the dead friend bakugo would reference?” someone asked

“That is me” Izuku confirmed

“So did you fake your death or something?” Mineta asked

“Oh, I straight up died. Pushed off a roof my brains splattered on the pavement. I think. I just can’t stay dead. I’ve died a total of 9-ish times. Heh Eraser killed me once” Izuku informed

“Don’t remind me. I still have nightmares about that. Seriously your quirk should come with a body horror warning.” Aizawa noted

“Wait, pushed off a roof?! Why would someone do that?” Uraraka asked

“I was pushed off the roof of Aldera Junior Hight by a couple of bakugo's “Friends”. They were my bullies. Hey Lucas what did you do to them again?” Izuku said

“They are currently living in a juvenile detention facility. An Aldera was shut down once I entered UA” Lucas responded

“Gotta love Rich parents, huh?” Izuku notes
“When I explained what really happened to you they were more than ready to help me crack some heads. Although that was the whole reason I didn’t want to inform Bakugo of the truth. I don’t know how that would’ve ended” Lucas explains

“Wait, you were killed by some bullies that were friends of Bakugobro? Dude, how could you associate with people who could do that, who could bully?” Kirishima asked

“Because I was THE bully. The main offender” Bakugo responded

A collective “What?!” as well as some gasps are heard

“I think I’m done dealing with New things today. I’m gonna take a nap for the next 48 hrs. Get home safe. Don’t kill each other” Aizawa said before leaving

“Bakugo that’s so not manly!” Kirishima commented

“Yeah, dude bullying is wrong!” Uraraka said

“Don’t worry guys I got back at him for 10 years of torment by making his believe he had killed me for 10 months!” Izuku said jokingly

“Why would you think you killed him. It was just your friends right?” Someone asked

“Because the two bastards covered it up like a suicide so Katsuki thought He pushed me to the breaking point” Izuku explained

“No, I thought I killed him because I told him to take a swan dive off the roof” Bakugo clarified

SMACK Izuku hits bakugo right across the face

“Why the f*ck would you tell them that!? Do you want everyone to hate?” Izuku asked

“I would rather them know the truth and they hate me than keep living a lie. What I did to you was wrong and I deserve what Isolation I get from these guys. I don’t deserve any friends after what I did to my only true friend.” Bakugo explained

“Awe! I’m your true friend?” Izuku said teasingly

“As wrong as it is to tell someone to kill themselves. I’m ok with it, bakugo. You are clearly very remorseful and Midoriya has forgiven you. This isn’t an issue we need to be mad about because it’s between the two of you. It really isn’t our business, Ribbit” Tsu explains

“Thanks, kermit” Bakugo sighs

"yeah, the issue has been solved for a while. There isn't a need to butt in on a problem we didn't have a place in the first place. and I'll be your friend Bakugo Bro!" Kirishima added

“Alright now that the trauma dump is out of the way. Let’s go check out the dorms, Izuku” Travis said

“Oh yeah. Talk to you guys later!” Izuku said as the three of them leave. The class filters out and the day ends.

Meanwhile, in Hosu general Hospital Iida has just checked in to visit his brother.

“Mom?!” Iida yelled

“Oh tenya!” the woman cried

“How is Tensei doing?” Iida asked worriedly before running into the room crying “Brother!”

“Tenya, keep your voice down! Put on a mask!” His mother corrected

On the hospital bed, Tensei Iida lays, with wires and badges covering him, an oxygen mask over his face.

“The anesthesia has worn off but he’s still in and out. If the surgery had happened any later I don’t know if he would’ve made it” The Doc/Nurse explained

“Little brother? Is that you?” Tensei weakly asked

Iida walked over to the side of his brother's bed. “Tensei! You’re gonna be fine!” he assured

“Sorry. I’m supposed to be someone you can look up to and respect. But look at me. Tenya, little brother, I’m so sorry. I failed you” Tensei claimed

“Tensei,” Tenya cried

The next day, At the todoroki household.

“Shoto? Where are you going?” Shotos older sister Fuyumi asked

“The hospital” He answered

“What? Hold on why? You can’t just visit. Not without telling dad right?” She asked

“Whatever” He responds

“But why go now? Why see her after all this time?” Fuyumi asked

“I’ll be back,” Shoto said before leaving

As shoto enters the hospital he informs the front desk of who wishes to visit. The shock on the faces of the employees as to who he is visiting.

He opens the door to his mother's room and walks in. His mother sitting in a chair looking out a window.

“Hello, mom.”

Chapter 13: After the Festival

Chapter Text

“PLUS ULTRA” The TV plays before shutting off

“That brat,” Shigaraki said scratching his neck

“Tomura calm down” Kurogiri

“That damn ghost brat is still alive! How is he still alive?” Shigaraki yelled scratching harder

“Tomura Shigaraki. I suggest you calm down.”

“Master?” Shigaraki asked stopping the scratching

“Keep an eye on that one will you? He will be a most deceiving trickster”

"How do you know him, Master?"

"I don't"

The next day most of the students start moving into the dorms. The whole day is mostly taken up by this process. As the day comes to an end, Impulse patrols the streets. He stops small thug after small thug and helps multiple citizens with various tasks. A small store’s alarm goes off as a man with a mask over his face runs out holding a bag and a gun. The store owner chases after him, stopping when he sees Impulse behind the guy. Impulse runs after the guy who climbs up a fire escape and makes his way to the roof jumping from roof to roof as a getaway. Impulse grabs four of his knives and slingshots them at the guy using his telekinesis.

Two miss, one hits the guy's back causing him to fall just before hitting a ledge, and another cut the strap to the duffle bag of cash. The guy gets up and aims the gun at Impulse fire a bullet that Impulse dodges by going intangible. Before the guy can fire another shot Impulse closed the distance between the two knocking the guy out with a knee to the face. Impulse grabbed the money bag to fix the strap, then searched the guy's pockets to find his wallet. He found it and swiped all the cash and gift cards before placing the wallet back and cuffing the guy. Impulse was ready to haul the guy to a police cruiser before he is wrapped in a capture scarf, one that Impulse follows to an Eraserhead with his hair up.

“Hey Eraser” Impulse says nervously

A few minutes later

Eraserhead pushes the thief into the back of the police car with Impulse nearby. As the car leaves Eraser notices Impulse make his way onto the roof of a nearby building. Eraserhead joins him on the roof to see him adjusting the money bag.

“Impulse you’re supposed to stop being a Vigilante” Aizawa reminds

“And you’re supposed to be arresting me, yet here we are” Impulse retorts

“I’m not arresting you because I’m giving you a chance to become a hero the right way” Aizawa answers

“Oh, so there’s a right way to be a hero? I save people. I stop the bad guys. I can’t help that that’s just what I do. Not only wood stopping my work be putting people in danger. If people think I’m gone, a good amount of villains would step out of the woodwork. If my presence is kept up multiple people will be causing fewer problems.” Impulse explained

“I hate that you’re right” Aizawa responds

“ Kick him! Shut him up!”

“Muzzle him”

“Don’t let him speak to you”

The two hear this and immediately head in the direction of the sounds. Impulse stops Aizawa telling him he’ll handle this as he hands the bag of money to Aizawa. Aizawa stays back.
In a dead-end alleyway, a group of 4 or more boys surrounds a familiar-looking figure.

“You think you can be a hero?” One of them says kicking the victim down

“This will shut you up,” One of them says placing a muzzle over the kid's face

“Don’t forget! You’re a villain! That quirk of yours isn’t that of heroes! So stop trying to be one!” Another one says kicking down the kid.

Impulse jumps down into the alleyway and calls attention to himself.

“Excuse me, but I don’t think this very legal,” He says

“f*cking hypocrite” Aizawa whispers to himself while watching on the roof.

“Who the f*ck are you?” one of them asks

“XXXX grab him” one of them commands another kid to approach Impulse

“Kid you have the right to refuse this order, and I guarantee you gonna relive your worst nightmare over and over again if you get any closers. And there are no breaks you will live it millions of times in a second you will go insane and be put in a hospital far from anyone you love” Impulse warns as the guy is even close to grabbing onto him before Impulse removes his goggles and uses Nightmare causing the guy to fall to the ground

“What was that?” one of them asks

“Nightmares”

“There was no sound he just collapsed!” one of them notes

“ Yeah, terrify it’s a terrifying thing to watch. It’s called a deterrent” Impulse said

“You couldn’t just knock him out??” One of them asks

“How is that a deterrent? Everyone wants to be knocked out no one wants to go insane reliving their worst nightmares” Impulse states

Impulse pauses, 1 down 4 to go. The four of them were between him and the victim, from here he still couldn’t make them out.

Impulse levitates 8 blades “Alright we can do this the easy way, or the bloody way. Your pick”

“Holy sh*t wait a minute,” one of them says pulling out the flashlight on his phone “That’s the Vigilante Impulse!” he continued

“No way!”

“Welp we’re f*cked, I give up,” One of them says surrendering

“You puss*es! He’s not a real hero. He’s a villain just like this brat. It is our job as heroes in training to chain up villains!” one of them says

“Heroes in training huh? Do you go to UA? I have friends in the staff there. They don’t tolerate this kind of behavior and I doubt other hero schools do as well. Enjoy juvie.” Impulse says before throwing all 8 knives at the one guy who blocks them by spewing out concrete from his hands.

“You can create concrete huh? I guess you can’t control it as Cementoss can. It’s a shame you would’ve been a nice sidekick to him.” Impulse says appearing behind the guy and sending him flying into the brick wall

“Now that he’s out. Does anyone else want to play fake hero? I know a guy with swords and knives that would love to cull you.” Impulse says

The others surrendered as well, Izuku cuffed, swiped their cash and Aizawa dragged them away. Impulse motioned that he was going to check on the victim who had his arms and legs tied as well as his mouth muzzled. The guy's hair and clothing were wet and his fist bruised. Atleast he didn’t go down without a fight. Impulse cut the ropes off the guy and removed the muzzle. It was only then that Impulse wouldn’t recognize who this person was.

“Shinso?” Impulse whispered

“You know who I am, Impulse?”

“Well obviously, I watched the sports festival.” Impulse responded

“My quirk- why didn’t it work?”

“Sorry, but these injuries need tending to and I can’t risk you sending me to a police station or something. Eraser would be pissed about that.” Impulse responded

“Eraser? That still doesn’t answer my question! How do you resist my quirk?” He asked angrily

“It’s simple, when in control of Paranormal forces you can affect a lot of voodoo-ish quirks. After getting brainwashed by you the first time I placed safeguards to prevent you from doing it again.” Impulse explained
“Paranormal forces? First time? Midori?! You are impulse?” Shinso realized

“Woah, you’re not as dumb as you look.” Impulse comments

“Hey, what do you mean by that?” He asked defensively.

“ You’re smart shinso. You realized you couldn’t beat the practical with your quirk and opted to get into the hero course vial the sports festival. But you waged war on my friends. You insulted my new class. You may believe you don’t need friends here but when living as someone with what others call a villainous quirk, it would be a could idea to get 40 bloodthirsty friends on your side.” Impulse explained

“What would you know about being separated from your peers? Treated differently from others because of something you couldn’t control? You could have never experienced what I have! You were blessed the moment you were born with a powerful quirk and now you squander that blessing by jumping around town being a vigilante!” Shinso shouted

“ Blessing? It would do you some good to learn not to make assumptions about people's past before you accuse them of something that has no connection to them. If you don’t learn this from me Eraser will drill it into your skull” Impulse says

“Why would-”

“If you get into the hero course it will be class A. Eraser is the homeroom. Anyways” Impulse answered snapping his fingers. After he does it immediately his backpack opens up his armor detaches, Goggles, masks, and gloves all float into his backpack while the first aid kit floats out. He takes off his hood before waving his hand at Shinso which instants blows the water out of his hair and clothes. Izuku takes a moment to bandage any bruises and wounds shinso had.

“Alright follow me”

“What? Where?”

“To the nearest pizza place, I may have removed the water from you but you need to warm up and we’re both hungry.”

“You carry cash on you as a vigilante?”

“Sometimes. Sometimes I swipe the cash from the thugs I knock out. I beat a robber earlier today who had a gift card for a pizza place nearby. So we are getting pizza.”

“Why can’t I just go home?”

“Do you really want to go back to that place?”

“How do you know?”

“When I induce nightmares I see them, Shinso”

“What-”

“Fair warning. Aizawa collects kids with traumatic pasts like they are pokemon cards”

“What?”

Instead of arguing further Shinso gave in and the two made their way to a nearby pizza joint. They order and Izuku pays, once the food arrives the two dig in.

“Lesson number 1. Assumptions make an Ass out of you and me. Nedzu taught me that phrasing. You assume I’m blessed. You assume class 1A is self-centered. You assume that the USJ brought out our egos. I can’t tell you all the reasons you’re wrong, but I can tell you a story that should show you how this kind of habit could be a problem. Especially if I was just slightly a bit more unhinged.” Izuku starts

Shinso looks up and gives a look that assures he’s paying attention. Izuku holds his leg out and points to his heavily modified red shoes.
“You recognize these? They may be a little bit ruffed up a bit but most people can recognize them if they are familiar with the brand”

“Quirkless reds” Shinso whispered

“That’s right, I figured you might have seen them a good couple of times on rooftops or bridges maybe. Or you're just familiar with other minorities. From the time I was four and given a diagnosis of quirkless to the time I was 14, I was bullied, beaten, bruised, cursed at, and shunned for something out of my control. I picked up analysis to make up for my lack of a quirk. I could analyze a person's behaviors, fighting style, and quirk to a frightening degree. The one thing I never understand was you “Villainous” quirk types. You advocate for quirks not being labeled as villainous yet you band together because the one thing that keeps bullies off your back is when you throw the quirkless under the bus.”

“What? Others like me did that?”

“Yes, this is a self-preservation society so those who had “villainous” quirks atleast had quirks and would amount to something in the eyes of the heroic quirks. The true villains are those who pretend to be heroic but act like nothing but villains. The staff of the school I went to enabled this behavior and were later arrested. The true belief of heroes is to be there when you’re not wanted but needed. And always care for those weaker than you. The kids at that school didn’t understand that, their quirks weren’t anything hero worthy but all of them banned together to insult me. As a hero, the villains aren’t the only thing you need to worry about. Fighting them isn’t even the main goal of being a hero. You have to care for and comfort the people around you. Let them know that everything is ok. That’s why All Might is leaps and bound farther ahead in popularity over Endeavor. All Might doesn’t just beat the bad guys in one move, he brings comfort, safety, and joy to the people around him. Endeavor only solves cases and arrests villains. He doesn’t care about people or fans, he just cares about his bullsh*t legacy. The guys who bully me and attacked you have no place in the hero world as they lack empathy. You on the other hand have no place in the hero world because you lack understanding of others and you're quick to assumptions.”

“What?”

“You think irrationally. For example. You’re a teacher at a hero school and a student has a notebook with a detailed analysis of his classmates and teachers. The ins and outs of their quirks and weaknesses as well as ways to fix those weaknesses. After multiple villain attacks endangering the students there are rumors of a traitor at your school and some of them bring the notebooks to you as proof this student might be the traitor. What do you do?”

“Is analysis related to their quirk?”

“No, they have a strength enhancer quirk”

“They must be the traitor that kind of information is far detailed to be from them. They must have stolen it to give to the villains. I arrest them and take them in for questioning”

“Wrong. They lived as quirkless for their entire life and so they made quirk analysis their hobby to help them fight through their weakness. This shows you don’t listen I just said Analysis was my hobby. Anyways the kid also has severe trust issues with authority figures due to past experiences. Not only does the student lose all trust in you afterward, but your other students and colleagues even doubt your place at this school and your ability to teach. You were right to ask questions but you only asked one before jumping to your opinion and ruining your life. You should’ve asked other people about the student. His family, friends, and the principal. You shouldn’t act on it alone as you have other people to talk to and if you dont have relations with anyone it shows that you're not doing a good job at what you should be doing. Even Eraserhead who is very antipeople being around him has good relations with his coworkers. You make the same mistakes everyone else does, you assume and then judge based on the assumption. “He has a villain's quirks, he must use it villainously, HE IS A VILLIAN” Does that sound familiar? They assumed then judged. You acting no better than the people you try to prove wrong.” Izuku explained

“What? I can't be that hypocritical can I?”

“News flash shinso, everyone is hypocritical. I tell Toga to stop making inappropriate jokes but I’ll still make them. Keep your mind on the things I’ve said. It will be important to learn them this week”

“This week?”

“It’s almost internships week man! What? Do you really think no one will pick you?”

“I… thanks Midori for helping me with this. The bullies, the injuries, and the food. You really didn’t have to-”

“My name’s Izuku Midoriya. Hiro was what I went by to hide my previous identity. And there will be no need to thank me. Just a hero's job to help.”

“Either way you’ve given me a lot to think about.”

“Say you won't be seen as missing for the next couple of hours wanna have some fun?”

“What kind of fun?”

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“BREAKING NEWS: The Pro Hero Endeavors Agency was Vandalismed last night! The cameras in the area were all shut down, possibly due to a quirk! The criminals in question spray paint many insults such as “The #2 hero endeavor? Is it cuz he’s sh*t?” and “no balls” “Praise Nedzu” “co*ck and Ball torture” “ Eraserhead is better” and more. Stay tuned for updates on this story and other great news!” someone turned the TV off

It was in the door Lounge room, most in class 1A opted to go with the dorm system (Mineta was banned) but only Uraraka, todoroki, Jiro, Kaminari, Toga, Travis, Mina, Tsu, Sero, and Kirishima were there.

“co*ck and ball torture? Really?” Travis said holding in a laugh

“No balls” Kaminari repeated laughing

“I’m curious as to who the perps are, ribbit” Tsu noted

“Yeah, and it’s a little weird that this happened so suddenly” Kirishima commented

“I think it’s f*cking hilarious!” Sero confused

“What do you think Todoroki? Isn’t Endeavor your dad?” Uraraka asked

Todoroki nodded to the second question but refrained from putting his input in on the matter.

Izuku walks into the lounge area and is greeted by uraraka.
“Hey, Midroiya. What do you think of the news that someone vandalized Endeavor’s agency?” Jiro asked

“News?”

“Yeah, the tv was just reporting on it” Sero added

“They seriously put that on TV? I thought Endeavor would have it cleaned up not televised!” Izuku collapsed to the ground laughing

“What? You knew about it before it was reported?” Jiro Asks

“He’s the one who did it” Lucas informed after walking into the lounge area from the kitchen.

“What?!” Mina, Tsu, Sero, Toga, and Travis yelled together

“f*cking snitch!” Izuku yelled at Lucas

“I am not your clean-up guy! Next time you need camera footage wiped, do it your f*cking self!” Lucas yelled

“You’re just salty you couldn’t join” Izuku responded

“Of f*cking course I am! You vandalized Endeavor’s agency! Who wouldn’t want to do that?”

“Fine, the next time I vandalize Endeavors stuff I’ll send you a text.”

“Thank you”

“Why did you graffiti Endeavors Agency? What do you have against him, ribbit?” Tsu asked

Izuku quickly glanced at Todoroki before responding “I was on patrol and the night was quiet. I got bored and I really don’t like Endeavor”

“Still, You’re supposed to be a hero. If you keep committing crimes like this-” Uraraka started before being cut off

“If I keep pranking Endeavor I’ll get the satisfaction I need from his suffering. Endeavor is the perfect example of how not to be a hero.” Izuku said

“What do you mean? How is Endeavor an example of that?” Kirishima asked

“ Think of it like this. If the Hero ranks were based purely on cases solved Endeavor would be #1. But they’re not. All Might isn’t number 1 just because good at it. He’s number one because he’s a likable and personable hero. He talks to fans, he helps citizens he makes us feel safe. Endeavor shows up you think “I’ll be saved but is it ok to be this close?” All Might shows up and you just instantly feel safe. This is a problem Katsuki had growing up. He wanted to be a hero purely to beat bad guys and show he was the best, he called anyone weaker than him an extra and paid no attention to them except to belittle them. He would’ve never been able to be number one this way. You need Empathy to be a hero. You need to care about those who adore you. You need to care for those weaker than you and not belittle them for it. Endeavor is like old Katsuki, he doesn’t care for the citizens he just gets the job done.” Izuku explained

“That pretty solid reason to hate him” Sero noted

“What else was there on the news?” Izuku asked

“We only just started watching” Kirishima answered

“Cool, if anyone needs me I’ll be in my room,” Izuku said floating a bag of chips from the kitchen into his hands before going upstairs.

While going up the steps Izuku is followed by Todoroki.

“Midoriya”

“Oh? Todoroki? You need- Oh sh*t you were there. Sorry about-” Izuku said before being cut off

“No, I don’t care about what you did although I would’ve appreciated an invite. I came to talk to you about what you and Lucas said during the sports festival.” Todoroki explained

“Oh yeah. I saw you used your fireside even though you see it as his-” Izuku noted nervously

“It isn’t!” Todoroki responded desperately

“You? You listened?”

“It took a while for the pieces to click but in the fight with Lucas so many memories flooded my brain. The promises I made to my mother before the promise I made to myself. I wanted to thank you for opening my eyes! So Thank You Midoriya!” Todoroki Explained

“No need to thank me. And you can call me Izuku. I don’t mind”

“Ok Izuku… You can call me Shoto. And I’m not joking. Next time you do that invite me.”

Izuku laughed, said sure, and the two went to their dorm rooms.

Meanwhile in the Support department a few hours later.

“Hello? Power loader? Mei hatsume?” Lucas asked. No one answered. He went to the support dorms to see if she was here but they told him she was in the workshop.

“Ah, Lucas! What can I do for you?” Power loader asked walking around a corner.

“Is Mei Hatsume here? I have something for her.” Lucas asked

“Yeah, she’s here. Hey Hatsume! You have a visitor!” Power loader yelled

“One moment!” A yell can be heard just before an explosion.

The pink-haired girl rounds the corner covered in soot. She takes her goggles off to look at Lucas before turning to Power loader.

“Yeah what do you need?” She asked

“Lucas has something for you. I don’t know what it is” He said before walking off

“Do you know how I am?” Lucas asked vaguely

“Not entirely. You were in the front of the sports festival for a good bit, I think.” She responded

“You’re right. Anyways My name is Lucas Lycan -” He is cut off by her

“As is Damien Lycan? As in Lycan Labs? As in the best support company ever?!” She ranted

“Yes, Yes. Listen, Mei Hatsume. My father Damien has shown an interest in your work. After the sports festival, he asked me to extend an offer to work an internship at Lycan Labs for the Support course internships week. You will be working with My father and I for the duration of that time. Do you acce-” Lucas Explains before he is tackled into a hug by Mei. The two fall to the ground.

“Yes Yes! I accept the offer! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Working at Lycan Labs will be so much fun! All the super cool advanced tech they have will make making supper cute babies so much easier!” She says with glee. Not realizing she was on top of Lucas now

“Uh, yeah. My dad makes sure to get all the best equipment for his workers. You will have a lab of your own and will either be Supervised by My father or Me during the week” Lucas explained nervously

“Aren’t you in the hero course? Wouldn’t you be missing school during that week?” She asked curiously

“I dual enrolled in the hero and support courses. I take Hero course here and Support courses with my father. It helps me train my quirk-” Lucas explained

“That's so cool! You’ll be one of the few Heroes who also are support techs! Also, your quirk is fascinating! I saw you make BT from Titanfall Do you think I could meet him? How does the other tech you make work? How do you even know how to make the tech. The grapple and particle shields seem super simple but complex Pilot gear like stim and phase shift seem almost impossible. Also that gun you made for the fire and ice kid! How does that work? Can I see that as well? How much time do you have? When is the next time you are free to talk about this?” Mei rambled

“Hatsume, hatsume! Mei! I can answer all of these questions, but Uh. Could you please get off of me?” he asked nervously

“Oh! I’m so sorry!” She apologized quickly getting off and helping him up “I get really enveloped in the things that interest me and what's going on around me I tend to not notice” She explained nervously

“That alright, now about those questions. I have the blueprints for the stuff I make right here,” lucas said placing down his hard drive and turning on the hologram projector attach to it. It begins displaying multiple blueprints for the tech he’s made, including outfits, weapons, gear, etc.

“Woah” Mei marveled looking at all the blueprints. She turned to lucas with stars in her eyes and said

“I can’t wait to work with you during internships!”

Chapter 14: Code Names and Internships

Chapter Text

It’s a rainy morning and Izuku, Uraraka, Toga, Travis, Lucas, and Bakugo were drying off in the entrance to UA when Iida joins them.

“Hello, classmates! You guys are here early!” He comments

“Oh, Iida!” Uraraka said surprised

“Four eyes, you’re back”

“Oh yeah. I guess you didn’t hear. UA implemented a Dorm system so we live here now.” Lucas mentioned

“Oh! I guess I’ll have to move in when I get the chance. Thank you for reminding me.” Iida said

The group continues to dry off and put their stuff away before they started walking to class. Izuku stops Iida just before he leaves.

“Um, Iida are-”

“Midori. If it’s about my brother don’t be concerned. I’m sorry I made you worry. I’ll be fine” Iida assured before going upstairs

In class, everyone was talking about the sports festival before Aizawa walked in.

“Morning”

“Good Morning Mr. Aizawa”

“Alright, we have a big class today. On hero Informatics” Aizawa Informed sending the class into an anxiety-ridden spiral.

“You need Code Names. Time to pick your hero identities” He continues lifting the pressure off his students.

“This is going to be so totally awesome!” The class says together before quickly calming down.

“This is related to the pro hero drafts I mentioned that last time we were in class. Normally students don’t have to worry about this intel in their second or third year but Your class is different. In fact, by extending an offer to you Pro heroes are essentially investing in your potential. Any offers can be rescinded if any interest in you dies down before graduation.” Aizawa explains

“Stupid selfish adults” Mineta complains

“Boi! You’re still here?” Lucas asked

“So what you’re saying is we’ll still have to prove ourselves after we’ve gotten recruited?” Momo asked

“Correct. Now here are the totals for those of you who got offers” Aizawa says as the totals are listed

Todoroki and Bakugo are at the top with thousands of offers. Hiro Midori is at the bottom listened with one offer

‘In past years it’s been more spread out. But as you can see there is a pretty big gap this time” Aizawa points out

“AH! That’s not fair” Kaminari whined

“What about the real star? Moi?” Aoyama complained

“Todoroki and Bakugo got the most? And Midoriya got the least?” Jiro noted

“How is that even possible? Midoriya won the festival!” Kirishima pointed out

“Midoriya? Whose-” Iida tried asking but was cut off

“As you can see Midoroiya Got only one offer. But the truth is I lied on this graph. Here is what Midoriya really got” Aizawa said pressing a button as The name Hiro Midori jumped to the top and reached a little over 7,000 offers

“The reason I lowered it to one offer is that that offer was from me. The rest are from Pro heroes who all made comments on how terrifying Izuku was during the Festival. Specifically, his battle with Shinso and the demons he summoned on accident” Aizawa explained

“Souls of the Damned! Eraser! They were the Souls of the Damned! Not demons. You’re lucky they don’t hear you say that” Izuku corrected
“Got it, Souls of the dam,” Aizawa says

Iida shot his hand up

“Mr. Aizawa! Why is everyone calling Midori, Midoriya? And you called him Izuku!” Iida asked

“Oh thats right you weren’t here after the festival” Uraraka mentions

“Yeah, Iida. Hiro's real name is Izuku Midoriya. He told us that after the festival, ribbit” Tsu explained

“Midoriya! Why would you lie? Why is that name familiar?” Iida asked whispering the last question

“We don’t have time to unpack that right now Iida. He didn’t want someone to know who he was so he hide. That person found out and now everything is fine. If you wish to learn more ask Izuku after class” Aizawa explains

“Sorry, Mr. Aizawa sir!” Iida Apologized

“Despite these results. You all will be interning with pros. Got it? Even those of you who didn’t get any offers. You all got to experience combat with real villains during the attack on the USJ. But it will still be helpful to see pros at work, especially if you intern with a pro that embodies the type of heroing you want to go into. For all this to work, you need hero names on the field. These names will likely be temporary. But take them seriously or you’ll-” Aizawa explained but is cut off as Midnight enters the room

“You’ll have hell to pay later!” She finished the statement for him

“What you pick today could be your code name for life! You better be careful or you’ll be stuck with something utter indecent!” she explains

“Yeah, she’s got a good point! Midnight is going to have the final say on your approved names. It’s not my Fortey. The name you give yourself is important. It helps re-enforce your image and shows what kind of hero you want to be in the future. A code name tells exactly what you want to represent. Take All Might for example.” Aizawa explained

Markers and boards are passed to everyone in the classroom.

After a few minutes, Midnight announces

“Now students. Who among you is ready to share?”

“We’re presenting theses?” Kirishima asks himself

“Who among us has the balls to go first?” Sero asks himself
Aoyama goes up to the podium and places his card.

“Hold your breath. The shining hero! My name is “I can not stop twinkling” Mon Ami, you can’t deny my sparkle!” he says as he shows the card.

Toga and Izuku start to burst out laughing together. “Pffft, Twink, Pffftt” Toga says makeing Izuku laugh even harder

Everyone just looks at them confused, Aoyama giving them the stink eye.

“It would be better this way. Take out the I and shorten the can not to Can’t.” Midnight suggests

“It’s stunning Mademoisel” He responds

“She likes it?” The class questions together

“Okie Doki! Let me go next!” Mina says making her way to the podium

“My code name! Alien Queen!” She announces

“Hold on!? Like that horrible monster with the acidic blood?? I don’t think so!” Midnight says

“Dang it” Mina whines moving back to her seat

Tsu goes next

“I’ve had this name in mind since grade school! Rainy Season hero: Froppy!” Tsu says

“That’s delightful! It makes you sound approachable! What a great example of a name everyone will love!” Midnight compliments

“I’ve got mine too! The Sturdy Hero: Red Riot!” Kirishima says

“Red Riot? Interesting, you’re paying homage to the chivalrous hero Crimson Riot, yes?” Midnight asks

“Yeah, he may be kind of old school but I wanna be just like he was. Crimson is my idle!” Kirishima explains

“If you’re bearing the name of someone you admire, you have that much more to live up to!” Midnight informs

“I accept the challenge,” Kirishima says

“Man I still haven’t been able to think of something that’s cool enough,” Kaminari whispers to himself

Jiro taps his shoulder and says “Hey I got one for you. How does Jamming-yay sound?”

“Ha! It’s like Heming-way who wrote A Farewell to Arms, Right? Real clever. I like it!” Kaminari compliments

“No it’s because even those you’re powerful you always jam your brain! Oh you could choose Charge Dolt” Jiro laughs

“Oh come on Jiro quit messing with me!” Kaminari yells as she went to the front to show hers

“The Hearing hero: Earphone jack”

“ Are you sure you want to use your quirk's name?” Midnight asks

“I can’t really think of anything else” Jiro admitted

“How about bass boost? Heart Beat? You don’t just hear sounds, you produce them” Kaminari suggested

after a moment of thinking, Jiro changes what's on her board

“ The Sound wave hero: HeartBeat” Jiro corrected

“Awesome! I Love it!” Midnight complimented

Kaminari goes up next

“Stun gun hero: Charge-Bolt!”

“Makes me all tingly!” Midnight notes

Shoji goes next

“The Tentacle Hero: Tentacole!”

“Oh I like what you’re doing with the, a nice portmanteau,” Midnight says

“The Taping Hero: Cellophane!” Sero Announces

“ That’s on the nose! Good work!” Midnight notes

“Martail Arts Hero: Tailman!” Ojiro says

“No surprise with that one I guess!”

“I’m the sweets hero sugarman!”

“Perfect!”

“Pinky!”

“Make those looks work for you, girl!”

“I hope I can live up to this name! The Everything hero: Creati!”

“Creative!”

“Shoto”

“Just your name? Is that it?”

“I don’t need more”

“Jet-Black Hero: Tsukuyomi!”

“ Oh! God of the night!”

“Fresh-Picked Hero: Grape Juice”

“Very catchy!”

“The Transformative hero: Cheshire!” Toga announced

“You’re sticky with your Vigilante name?” Midnight asked

“I don’t see why not!” Toga said

Koda walked up to the stand with his sign saying “Petting Hero: Anima”

“Yep! All about it!”

“The Metalic hero: Metallica,” Travis said

“Really you’re changing from the Vigilante name?” Izuku asked

“Yes. And I’ve tired of the Bunny jokes from Toga”

“I won’t stop making them ~Bunny~” Toga teased

“Isn’t Metallica also a band?” Midnight asks

“Yes, and I like their music, even if they are really old” Travis answered

“Really old? Boi, they are 200 years old, that’s not old that’s ancient” Lucas pointed out

“you're one to talk, Avenge Sevenfold” Travis retorts before walking off

Bakugo walked up

“The Dynamight Hero: Ground Zero”

“Ground Zero? As the point closes to an Explosion? Interesting. The way you spelled Dynamite. Are you referencing All Might? Either way, I love it!” Midnight asked

“Maybe,” Bakugo said under his breath before walking off

Uraraka moves up next

“ This is the name I thought of! Uravity!” Uraraka announces Nervously

“I just love that!” Midnight says causing Uraraka to breathe a sigh of relief

“Aw! It's a super ~cute~ Name for a super ~cute~ hero!” Toga compliments excitedly

“T-thank you….” Uraraka said before walking back to her seat

Travis pulled Izuku aside a bit and ask “I can’t tell if toga is messing with her flirting or actually flirting with her. Can you?”
“Negative Ghost Rider.”

“To be honest. Choosing names is going faster than I thought! All we have left is Iida, Midoriya, and Lucas I believe” Midnight comments

Lucas walks up to the stage

“The Technological Hero: Circuit”

“Sticking to your Vigilante name as well, Huh?” Midnight asked

“If it ain’t broke, upgrade it and make it better”

“I love it”

Iida walks up to the stand.

Previously in Hosu General Hospital

“Tenya, I didn’t want to say anything yesterday, but my legs. I can’t feel them. They’re useless” Tensei said slowly

“What? No way!” Iida said surprised standing up

“The Hero Ingenium is finished. Atleast for me” Tensei continued

“No! You still have so many people to help and Inspire brother! This can’t be true!” Iida cried

“I’m sorry, but I’m afraid it is. That’s why I want you to take the name. Will you do that, for me Tenya?”

In the present Iida placed his card down with just his name

“You’re using your real name too?” Midnight asked concerned

“I don’t have a name I feel comfortable taking on yet,” Iida said returning to his seat.

“Well, Midoriya? Are you ready?” Midnight asked

“Yeah one moment,” He said making his way to the front and placing the card down

“The wild card hero: Ace!”

“Really? you‘re also not sticking to your vigilante name? Nor are you referencing your power?” Midnight says

“Every day It seems like I learn a new ability related to ghosts. With this plethora of random bullsh*t abilities, I want to keep villains on their toes, never knowing what all I can do. If I reference ghosts then they can deduce what I can do. I would also like to keep a separation between My hero identity and My Vigilante one.” Izuku explained

“I like it! Good on you!”

Aizawa wakes up and returns to the topic of Internships

“Now that you have your code names picked out we can talk more about your internships. They’ll last for one week. Those of you who were on the board will choose from among your offers. Everyone else will have a different list. You have a lot to think about. There are around 40 agencies around that country that have agreed to take on interns from your class. Each agency has a different specialty that its heroes focus on. Keep that in mind.” Aizawa explains

“Imagine that you were 13. You’d want to focus on a place that specializes in rescue work, understand?” Midnight adds
“Think carefully before you decide,” Aizawa warns

“Yes Sir!” The class says together

“I want to be with someone where I can fight a lot of bad guys.” Kirishima hopes

“I hope I can intern somewhere with a lot of flooding. Maybe a lake” tsu notes

“Turn in your choices before the weekend” Aizawa notifies

“We’ve only got two days?!” Sero complains

“Yeah, so you should start now. You’re dismissed” Aizawa said shutting the door

During lunch, class 1A stays to discuss their internships.

“Hey guys, does anyone know what their agency will be?” Mina asks

“ Mount Lady is my top choice,” Mineta says proudly causing Lucas to smack him

“What was that for?!” Mineta complained

“Bashing, Verbal Assualt or Physical assault. This is still a Mineta bash. So Bash you I will” Lucas responds

“I still don’t know what you mean by that???” Mineta cried

“You made it pretty far in the tournament. It’s weird you didn’t get any offers” Ojiro says to Mina

“I know!” Mina whined

“Hey Toga! Where will you intern?” Uraraka asked

“Well After training for 3-ish years on the streets there isn’t much fight combat I need to learn. Really I need to know more laws related to hero work. I have an offer from Midnight so I might go with her. Due to the nature of her hero debut, she knows a good bit of the laws. Especially those related to your hero persona and outfit” Toga explained

“Interesting, I was thinking about training with the hero Abomination. His quirk is very similar to mine but it isn’t a metal, it's a kind of sludge. What about you Izuku?” Travis said

“Oh, I’m training with Eraser. A week of spending time with him. Time in which I will use annoy him. Or learn something. I don’t know yet” Izuku said

“Interesting. Hey Momo. Who are you interning with?” Lucas asked

“Oh I think about Uwabami” She informed

“Why? You planning on being a product placement hero?” Izuku asked

“What?” Momo asked confused

“Uwabami isn’t a combat hero or really a helpful hero. Not lately. All she’s been doing lately are commercial after commercial. If you want an actually helpful experience I suggest Fatgum. Not only is he a really kind Hero your quirks work similarly and you would be able to learn something helpful from him. Instead of learning how to stand in front of a camera with a fake smile.” Izuku said

“Thanks, I’ll consider it,” Momo said

“Word of advice from everyone! Don’t pick heroes from the top 10 unless you are absolutely sure they are a good hero choice for you. Just cuz they are top ten doesn’t mean they are good teachers or good heroes. Most of you heard what I said about not likely Endeavor and you’ve all had All Might as a teacher. So please be smart about this.” izuku advised

Lucas and Izuku walked over to Iida. “Hey man, how’s your list going along?”

“Ah, Class Rep Thank you for asking! These are my top three!” Iida said handing the paper to Lucas. Lucas and Izuku look over it and stare at each other.

“The Normal Hero: Manual huh? Interesting” Izuku said in a worried tone.

“What is something wrong?” Iida asked

“No nothing at all man. G-good choices” Lucas said walking away and pulling Izuku with him

“Oh, my god it’s worst than we thought” Lucas whispered to Izuku.

“I know all three of those Agencies are in Hosu. Stains MO is to attack multiple times in one city. Ingenium was the first one in Hosu. We have to tell Eraser” Izuku whispers back

“Anyone else need help picking their internship?!” Lucas asks

“No”

“Nah”

“We’re good”

“Cool Izuku and I are gonna go turn ours in!” Lucas says dragging Izuku out of the class

The two walked to the teacher's lounge where Aizawa was working on grading papers while drinking coffee on the couch.

“Aizawa We have an emergency!” Lucas and Izuku said bursting into the lounge startling Midnight, Aizawa, and Vlad while also causing Yagi to exit his office. Snipe didn’t budge

“Jesus christ Problem children! What’s so important that you had to scare us?” Aizawa asked

“Iida has gone insane!” Lucas warns

“We think he might be trying to go after the Hero killer!” Izuku informs

“What? Why do you think that?” Midnight asks

“As the class rep, I went to assist everyone in the Internship decision-making process. Iida’s top three Agencies were all located in Hosu-” Lucas explained before being cut off.

“Where Stain attacked Iida’s brother Ingenium and where stain will likely to show up again” Aizawa continued

“What should we do?” Lucas asked

“I don’t know! I expected Iida to be the last person to cause problems.” Aizawa confessed

“I can help!” Yagi said entering the discussion

“How?” Lucas asked

“I have an old colleague of mine whose quirk is speed based. I can see if I can convince him to send an offer to Young Iida if I inform him of the situation.” Yagi explained

“And then you can convince him to accept the offer because it would be a privilege to learn from a friend of All Mights! Cool thanks All might you could’ve just saved a life” Lucas thanked

Yagi coughed up blood “what?! I’m not all might”

“Please it takes two seconds to see the contact for All Might on Aizawa’s phone is the number for the phone in your pocket right now,” Lucas explains

“Don’t look through my phone, Lucas!” Aizawa scolds

“Also I have eyes everywhere. The cameras are mine, the microphones are mine. If you think I don’t have blackmail on all of you. You're wrong. Mess up and you’re dead, simple as that” Lucas said intensely

“Jesus Christ, kid. What made you like this?” Snipe asked

“Bad past experiences with authority figures make you lose your trust in the position of teachers collectively. The result is multiple teaching licenses revoked, adults arrested, kids sent to juvie, and a building being demolition.” Izuku explained

“You trust us right?” Vlad asked nervously

“Aizawa I trust, Yagi I trust. Haven’t spent enough time with Midnight and Snipe to have anything against them. Vlad is on thin f*cking ice” Izuku notes

“That’s comforting, I think?” Snipe notes

“I see why all your offers are noted with some form of “He’s terrifying” “ Vlad realizes

“Not helping your case” Aizawa points out

“Always back to the topic at hand I’ll go call my former teacher and ask them to help Young Iida!” All Might says retreating into his office.

Izuku and Lucas hand in their internships and exit the lounge to sit in the halls talking. Uraraka, Toga, Iida, Travis, and Momo are in the hall walking toward them.

“Hey, guys! Did you turn in your internships?” Uraraka asked noticing them.

“Yeah, What did you choose Uraraka?” Izuku asked

“The Gunhead Martial arts Agency!” She answered

“Cool! And momo how about you?” Lucas asked

“I took your advice and went with Fatgum. Apparently, he has another UA student with another eating-related quirk that he’s trained so I feel more comfortable seeking mentorship from him.” Momo answered

The door to the Lounge bust out All Might Sliding out ready to dash down the hall when He notices Young Iida and before he can stop or turn he slams into the wall.

“All Might?” Momo, Iida, Travis, Toga and Uraraka question

“Ah! Young Iida! I was just about to go looking for you!” All Might said getting up

“Looking? For me?” Iida questioned

“Yes! You see you just got another offer for you! And this is a special one. My old teacher from my UA days has decided to come out of retirement to teach you as he has taken a special interest in your skills! His quirk is similar to yours and he wishes to teach you some tricks! What do you say?!” All Might explained

“Of Course, I’ll say yes! It will be an honor to learn from the number one heroes teacher! Thank you for informing me! I can’t believe I not only get to learn in the School that All Might was taught in but also have All Might's former Teacher mentor me. It is an amazing experience that can’t be passed!” Iida said with pride

“He’ll be happy to hear that! I’ll fill in the paperwork right away! Say you’re all turning in your internships? Good, I’ll hand them to Aizawa and you can be on your way!” All Might said picking up their papers and returning to the Lounge.

After school ended

“Hey, Uraraka! Want to walk with me to the dorms?” toga asked

“Sure. Hey Izuku, Lucas. You guys joining us?” Uraraka asked

“Nah I have to go to the support department,” Lucas said

“And I have patrol,” Izuku said

“Patrol? You still going out as a vigilante!?” Kirishima said

“You damn nerd! You gonna get yourself in trouble!” bakugo warned

“Quiet down guys. It isn’t that big of a deal. Listen Eraserhead agrees. The Vigilante Impulse instills fear in those in the underworld. If he suddenly stops showing up there are a lot of people who would step out of the woodwork to cause problems. It’s the same reason I'm not taking up that name as a hero. If criminals right now learn Impulse is 15 years boy they’ll stop taking me seriously. It’s about keeping up the correct appearances.” Izuku explained

“That’s a dark way of looking at this world” Mineta notes

“No Mineta. It’s the reality we live in. The real world is sh*tty. If you aren’t prepared for that withdraw from UA.” Lucas informs

“So Iida would you like to-” Urarak started causing everyone to turn to Iida’s desk to see him gone

“Oh” She notes

“Guess I have you all to myself ~Cutie~” Toga glees to Urarakas's embarrassment

Days later at the train station.

“Everyone has their costumes, right? Remember. You don’t have permission to wear them out in public yet. And don’t lose them or anything” Aizawa informed

“Gotcha!” Mina yells excitedly

“Speak properly! It’s Yes Sir Ashido” Aizawa corrects

“Yes sir,” Mina says embarrassed

“Make sure to mind your manners with the other heroes during your internships. Now get to it” Aizawa informs

“Yes Sir,” The class says before going their separate ways. Izuku staying by Aizawa.

“So Eraserhead. how is this going to work?” Izuku asked

“Like a nightmare” Aizawa deadpanned before heading to the bus.

The two make their way back to UA where they enter one of the gyms. In there stand Shinso who has one of Aizawa’s capture weapons. There is a mat in the corner of the gym and various equipment.

“Shinso. Thank you for being here on time.”

“Thank you for extending an offer to me,” Shinso says looking behind Aizawa and seeing Izuku.

“You knew he was going to do this. Didn’t you?” Shinso asked

“I’ll never tell” Izuku teased

“Quiet. Let’s start with the basics of using the capture weapon” Aizawa said handing one to Izuku

“Holy sh*t. This is so cool” Izuku marveled

Meanwhile

Knock knock. No answer. Iida opens the door

“Hello? This is Tenya Iida from UA high. I’m here for my internship- Oh my lord! He’s dead” Iida freaks out seeing a Gran Torino on the floor covered in red liquid.

“I am Alive,” The man says looking up at Iidas.

“Ah! He’s Alive!” Iida screamed before sighing in relief

The man gets up “Excuse me I was carrying a nice big of sausages covered in ketchup when I accidentally tripped and fell down. Clumsy me. Now how did you say you were?” The man explained

“I’m Tenya Iida from UA Hight I'm here to train with the Pro Hero Gran Torino!” Iida responded

“You’re who now?”

“I’m Tenya Iida!”

“So what’s your name boy?”

The man fell to the ground to sit. Iida was worried

“I could really use some food.” He noted

“Some food?” Iida questioned

“Takashi?” the man asked confused

“Iida!” Iida says frustrated

Iida sighs and says “one moment please I need to make a phone call”

Iida pulls out his phone and turns towards the door. Before he can make the call Gran Torino is rummaging through his hero case.

“Hey, Sir that’s my stuff. Could you-”

“Why don’t you send an engine-powered kick my way? Or try to catch me with your speed? I want to know how far you’ve come using your version of this quirk” The man said in a completely different tone than from before

“My version of this quirk? Wait, Takashi isn’t that my Grandfathers name! Did he know my Grandfather?” Iida asks himself

“Pretty clunk suit, otherwise expertly made. Now, where is that attack?” The man asked

“But Sir” Iida stared

“Hey what are you doing here?” The man asked going back to his senile persona

“I’m here because I need to learn how to better my skills. I have to get better at using my quirk. And fast. I’m also here because My brother Ingenium can no longer be the idol people need. I’m sorry but I can’t waste my whole week messing around like this, sir. I hope you’ll excuse me.” Iida said turning towards the door

“As I thought” Gran Torino said in his more serious tone causing Iida to turn around.

The man took in a breath before using his quirk to begin jumping around the room. Landing on the roof moving to the wall maneuvering midair before landing just above the door frame

“It’s time you show me what you can do. Ya Noobie! hehehe” The man said looking down at Iida.

Chapter 15: Stains on Society

Chapter Text

“Now I get it, you must be the ones who attack UA. And you want to recruit me to build up your little group again” Stain realized standing in a Bar facing Shigaraki and Kurogiri.

“Yeah, It’ll be great, you got so much experience” Shigaraki notes

“And what’s your mission?” Stain asked

“For now, I really just want to kill All Might. I like to destroy anything that pisses me off. Like this little brat here, game over” Shigaraki said holding up an Image of Izuku in his Sports festival attire and an image of Impulse

“I was a fool to think you could offer me anything. It turns out, you’re the type of person I hate most in this world. The goals of your league are those of a child! What meaning is there to kill if you don’t have real convictions?” Stain said grabbing a couple of blades

“Master, should I step in?’ Kurogiri asked the TV

“Let it happen, it’s possible this is the only way he’ll learn anything. He needs to think about the ways he must grow. How he can mature. Only then can he reach his potential” The voice on the TV explained

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“The way you use your power is stiff, restricting! Your family is not training you well! I can’t stand watching you use your quirk this way so I suppose I’ll have to teach you! Now hurry up and get your costume on!” Gran Torino commands

“I’m ready Sir, Teach me everything!” Iida declared

After Iida placed on his suit.

“Alright, We can get started!” Iida said ready

“Then catch me”

Torino began Zipping through the room again. Iida charged up his quirk and tried to go after him, but after a few dents in the walls, it was clear that He wasn’t as maneuverable as his elder. After a few hours of Torino zipping around the room getting kick after kick in, Tenya was sure his entire body was covered in bruises. Torino called it quits for the day tossing a juice box to Iida.

“How did you?”

“You may have a difference in your quirk boy. But the Iida kids are all fueled by juice”

“You called me Takashi. Did you know my grandfather?” Iida asked taking off his helmet

“Of course I did! I knew you grandfather. I knew your father, I even knew your Brother! I taught at UA for heavens sakes! Granted it was one year but there were still some Iida’s in the class.”

“Oh, thank you for answering my question,” Iida said before opening the juice box

After a few moments of silence, Gran Torino speaks up again.

“You can barely land a hit on me kid. How did you expect to beat the Hero Killer?” he asks

“What? No, I wou-”

“Save it, kid, you aren’t subtle. It was clear that what happened to Tensei is bothering you.”

“I don’t-”

“You think you’re the only one to experience a great tragedy? Before I was All Might’s teacher I was a loyal friend to All Might Mentor. Before the All Might you knew was even All Might his mentor was killed by a great villain.”

“I'm so sorry to have reminded you of that!” Iida apologized

“No need boy. All Might trained with me to become a better fighter. He beat the villain 6 years ago.”

“Did it help? With your friend's death?”

“Not even in the slightest. But it was comforting to know that the villain can never do that again”

There was a pause

“That’s enough of this old man reminiscing! We are here to talk about you! As I said you’re too stiff, you need to be flexible. And then there is the issue of your admiration of your brother! It shackles you”

“What? How can my admiration of Tensei be an issue! He is a great hero that everyone should be able to look up to!” Iida defended

“There's your problem. No one hero is an example of the ideal hero. Everyone has their flaws. Everyone has their differences. It’s your job to learn how to remedy that. You try too hard to mimic your brother. You need to be your own hero kid” Gran Torino said before he left

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“I’ve been waiting for you Shoto. You’re finally ready to walk down the path of the mighty” Endeavor announced

“I have no intention of following any path you’ve created. Only I can decide my future”

“Is that so? Go get ready, we’re going out”

“Where too?”

“It’s time I show you what it means to be a hero”

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Using the capture scarf isn’t commanding it. You don’t force it to do what you want. The capture scarf isn’t a tool but it’s an extension of your body. Let it move like your limbs. Or in Izuku’s case, like you run your mouth” Aizawa explained as the two practiced with the Scarf

“Hey!” Izuku whined causing Aizawa to chuckle

After a few hours of practicing Aizawa calls for a break. Izuku walks over to the mini fridge to pull out some water and a metal bottle. He tosses one of the water bottles to Shinso and opens up the metal bottle to take a sip.

“What are you drinking?” Aizawa asks confused

“The blood of my enemies” Izuku answers calmly

“Can I have some?”

“Sure,” Izuku says passing the bottle to Aizawa who takes a sip and promptly spits it out

“What the f*ck is this, Problem Child?” Aizawa asks disgustedly

“Oh, it's just Chocolate Milk” He answers taking back the bottle and taking another sip.

“With Red Bull, Monster Energy, 5-hour energy, and 3 shots of espresso.” He adds

“Why would you drink that?” Shinso asks confused

“More importantly! How can you drink that?” Aizawa asks concerned

“Cause I need the energy. And I’m not as weak as you” Izuku answers

“Why would you need that much energy?” Shinso asked

“You shouldn’t be surprised. My quirk takes a lot out of me sometimes. It isn’t all sunshine and rainbows over here in my body. I don’t just magically go through walls and speak to ghosts. Quirks are still physical things and manipulating the Paranormal forces takes energy like any other task. This concoction just helps with that” Izuku explains

“That shouldn’t be healthy” Shinso points out

“Oh, it’s probably not. Atleast for you guys. For me, my body needs the energy so it just accepts the torture. And it’s worked for the past 6 months instead of the alternative”

“What’s the alternative?” Aizawa asked worriedly

“Like a sh*t ton of food” Izuku commented

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“So you want to be an underground hero that specializes in Infiltration?” Midnight asks

“Yes! I don’t get to use my quirk much because operations like that aren’t always possible as a vigilante. Atleast not for our team. I mainly used my quirk to access Travis’s” Toga explained

“Run down the basics of your quirk again”

“When I drink someone's blood I can turn into them. 1 cup lets me look and sound like them for about a day. If I know what their quirk is and how to use it I can use their quirk. I also create their clothes but they get layered under my own so It helps to get naked first. Which creates the biggest problem when I run out of time. Lucas suggested I get a DNA-based suit made, which I brought to Powerloader and Hatsume.” Toga explains

“So what do you need my help with exactly?”

“You use your sexiness as a distraction. I’ve used flirting in a similar fashion, But I’m not entirely good at it. I mainly want to use my cuteness as a falsifier. Trick people into thinking I’m not as dangerous as I am. And you are an expert in what exactly is appropriate for hero work and what isn’t” Toga explained

“I see you understand step one. Flattery”

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first day of Internships finishes and then the next starts up. Torino and Iida continue training his flexibility. Uraraka gets started in combat basics. Kirishima ran into tetsutetsu during his internship and the two learn from FourthKind. Fatgum shows Momo around the area he patrols making sure to show how important it is for quirks like theirs to keep in mind the local food shops. Lucas trains with his Hero uncle in Hosu. Shoto goes on another patrol with Endeavor. Izuku and Shinso continue to learn how to use the capture scarf. Bakugo took up an Internship with Best jeanist, learning the proper way to present yourself in front of citizens. Travis learned other things he can make from his metal thanks to Abomination. Toga’s DNA-based suit is finished earlier than she thought it would be, so Midnight and Toga decide to train in the new outfit.

As the day comes to an end Tsukauchi meets Yagi in his office.

“I’m sorry to show up unexpectedly. Hope you don’t mind” Tsukauchi said ask yagi placed down two cups of tea.

“Please, it’s always a pleasure to see you Tsukauchi. So, how’s the investigation?” Yagi asked
“Well, there were a number of villains who attacked the USJ. But we are puzzled by one. The one you fought who they call Nomu” Tsukauchi starts

“Ah, that strong bird guy” yagi interjects

“We went ahead and ran some tests on nomu’s DNA.” Tsukauchi continued

“What did you find?”

“First, we’re not asking you to help us with the case. Technically this is a leak. I just felt I owed it to you to let you know. It could lead us to the one in charge. After several attempts at interrogation, we realized that nomu can’t speak. He shows no reaction to anything. It’s as though he literally can’t think for himself, no matter what’s going on around him. As for his identity, we discovered he used to be a low leveled thug with a record of assault and extortion” Tsukauchi explained

“Why do you think this will lead us to the mastermind behind the league?” yagi asked

“That’s where things get interesting. Out reports show that he’s been altered drastically. When we analyzed his genetic makeup, we discovered 4 different people's DNA.” Tsukauchi explains

“Somebody combined people's DNA to make this guy? So is he even human anymore?” Yagi asked

“The transformation is the result of drugs and other unknown methods. To oversimplify it a bit, his body has been modified so it can hold multiple quirks at once. His brain's apparent lack of processing powers comes from the burden that causes. But what we’re more concerned about is DNA. He shouldn’t have more than one power, even if new DNA is introduced it shouldn’t give a person multiple powers, not unless it’s completely integrated into someone's body. Not all quirks work like OFA. but maybe there’s someone out there with the power to pass on quirks to other people.” Tsukauchi explains

“Ah! It can’t be!”

“Given the evidence. I think it’s a reasonable conclusion. It’s why I came. I had to let you know immediately” Tsukauchi says

“No, It’s not possible, don’t tell me his back again.”

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“So you want me to be a part of your crumbling little league? But you won’t accomplish anything if you don’t have conviction and desire. Without those, you’ll always be an aimless weakling. Achieving nothing. That’s how you got here” Stain said with one dagger jammed into shigaraki’s right shoulder, and another just above shigaraki’s left shoulder.

“Hey now. You’re being a little rough. Aren’t you? Kurogiri. Take this guy back.” Shigaraki says

“I’m sorry, I can’t move. It must be the hero killers quirk at work” Kurogiri apologizes

“The word hero has lost all meaning in this society. The world is overrun by fakes and criminals like you. Who chase petty dreams. They must all be purged” Stain says dragging his free dagger towards Shigaraki’s neck, almost hitting the hand on his face before Shigaraki grabs onto the dagger.

“What do you think you’re doing? If you touch this palm, I’ll kill you” Shigaraki says decaying the dagger.

“You sure talk a lot, hero killer. Conviction? Maybe I don’t have anything as loaded as that. If I had to choose a desire though? Yeah, it’d be killing All Might. If this world wants to worship trash like him I’ll destroy their beloved symbol of peace and then crush them while they’re in shock!” Shigaraki says before trying to grab stain who backs away, allowing Shigaraki to stand up

“The last of my injuries was finally about to finish healing. And now this? You should learn not to play with knives. We don’t have a healer in our party, you know? “ Shigaraki says scratching at his neck.

“I see your nature. It seems our goals fundamentally oppose each other. However, this wasn’t in vain. We agree that we need to destroy the present” Stain says

“I’m over this. Leave, drop dead. I’m the person you hate the most right?” Shigaraki says bored

“I was testing you’re motives. People show their true colors when they're on the verge of death. It’s abnormal, but there is desire, a warped sprout of conviction inside of you. How will it bloom in the end I wonder? Maybe I’ll let you grow, if you don’t turn out well I take care of you later” Stain says as Kurogiri regains movement

“You think you could get rid of me? Kurogiri, someone as crazy as this will be nothing but a problem for the league of villains.” Shigaraki says

“Please reconsider. This man would be a great asset if he joins us. I’d say this was a success” Kurogiri assures

“My business here is done. Now you will return me to Hosu. there are still several false heroes I must attend to there.” Stain declares

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day Three of the Internships plays out like any other. Students are brought on patrols. Taught basics, and showed ways to improve their quirk. Shinos and Izuku have made progress with the Capture scarf. Able to control it easily and traverse the terrain. Toga has been working on her movement, combining her vanishing technique with her general athleticism to maneuver more than just alleyways and roofs. Lucas had gone on patrol with his Uncle, learning that the very act of patrol can help keep villains a bay. Iida has become more flexible in his movements. Choose to sacrifice speed for mobility. Torino thinks with more practice he’ll be able to move more fluidly.

“We’ll be going on patrol today” Aizawa announces to Shinoso and Izuku as they walk into the gym.

“Wait really? Are you sure that’s a good idea?” Shinso asked worriedly

“Don’t worry shinso. Eraser’s a pro and I’ve been on the streets for a year, We’ll do just fine. Where are we going?” Izuku asked

“Iacon City. We’ll be taking the bullet train to get there.” Aizawa informs

“ Did you get a haircut?” Shinso asked looking at Izuku

“Yes. I haven't had the ability to get one in a while so” Izuku notes

“Anyways these are your hero outfits. Put them on and meet me at the gate” Aizawa said handing the outfits to them before leaving.

The two head to the changing rooms and get dressed. They meet Aizawa at the gate.

“Where’s our ride? How will we get to the station?” Shinso asked

“Oh, poor shinso. We won’t be driving to the station.” Izuku said mockingly

“What?” Shinso asked confused

“First one their get’s to commit a crime for free” Aizawa said before launching off using his capture scarf to traverse the rooftops

“f*ck yeah!” Izuku said following suite

“Are you serious?” Shinso said before doing the same

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“ We should switch up the training. If you get too used to fighting against my distinct tactics you might develop some weird habits.” Gran Torino warns

“What habits, sir? I’m just training to keep up with you!” Iida asks

“Change into your costume, boy. We’re moving onto phase two.” Gran Torino commands

A few minutes later

“I hope you're ready, boy! We’re going out to fight some villains!” Gran Torino Informs

“ Sir! Are you sure we should do this?”

“If you only fight against me, you’ll be in trouble when you come across someone who is the complete opposite. The key is to let you get experience with different types of villains and situations. This is an internship after all. You really shouldn’t be that surprised by this” Torino explains

“Forgive me, sir, I understand”

“Good, Now because of the small population in this area, the crime rate is pretty low. That’s why there are so many hero agencies in urban areas. There’s a lot more crime there. The higher the population density the more trouble you’ll find. Now in Shibuya we’ll have plenty of small fights to break up” Torino explains before hailing a taxi.

“Hmm, Will we be taking the bullet train towards Shinjuku?” Iida asked

“Yep”

“We will be passing Hosu City. Where the hero killer is” Iida thinks

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stain sits on a water tower in Hosu when a warp gate appears behind him.

“ huh, Hosu city looks nicer than I expected. So, what are you gonna do?” Shigaraki asked stepping out of the gate

“I will reform it. In order to do so, blood must spill.” Stain explains

“You have a clear goal. Your dedication is admiral.” Kurogiri compliments

“Ah, someone who understands,” Stains says standing up

“I get the feeling you enjoy picking on me” Shigaraki whines

“Hero is a title for those who’ve accomplished great deeds! This city is full of false champions! All they care about is money and fame! Intel this world realizes its mistakes I will continue my work!” Stain says before leaping off the tower, as he lands he turns back towards them pointing his swords at shigaraki

“One last piece of advice before I correct the city. You’d do well to stay away from that kid,” he warns before moving further into the city

“He talks all high and mighty and stuff but he’s wasting his time focusing on a small stage. He’s so noble I could cry. And what was that about the brat?”

“You shouldn’t spurn his methods. The reality is in all the cities where stain has appeared the crime rates have fallen. Perhaps because heroes are more conscientious or perhaps out of fear. Regardless he does bring change” Kurogiri says causing shigaraki to scratch his neck

“Oh isn’t that just wonderful! Heroes are working harder thanks to all those murders! I guess you could say our hero killer is also a hero breeder! This is getting boring. It won’t work, we just can’t agree on a basic level. Any hero annoys me. Kurogiri. Bring out the Nomus” Shgaraki says as a gate opens and 3 nomu walk out. One with a gas mask and wings, A big one with no eyes, and a smaller one with 4 eyes

“You think you can get away with stabbing me? When I get tired of you I’ll kill you! Whenever I feel like it. Just like that stain! But let's make it more interesting. How about I crush your honor and your pride first. What do you say, big bad hero killer?” Shigaraki monologs

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the bullet trains nears Hosu City Iida talks to Torino.

“So this train won’t get there intel pretty late. Are you sure that’s ok sir?” Iida asks

“That’s Why I picked it, boy. There will be more skirmishes then so it will be fun”

Iida pulls out his phone

“You kids and your phones, always buried in them” Torino jokes

Lucas Lycan
Heard what happened to your brother, hope you’re doing ok!

—----------------------------------------------------Today—-----------------------------------------------
Tenya Iida
I’m going on patrol with my mentor today. We’re taking the Bullet Train to Shibuya. We’ll be passing Hosu City on the way there. How are you and your Uncle doing? Well I hope

Lucas Lycan
We are doing just fine. We’re on patrol right now So I can’t talk right. Hope your patrol goes well too.

Tenya Iida
Listen I know you’re the one who stopped me from going to Hosu. I wanted to thank you for preventing me from doing something as stupid as going after the Hero Killer. If you run into him. Arrest him for me.

Lucas Lycan
It’s my duty as Class rep to take care of my Classmates. Especially during the times when they are hurting. I look out for my friends.

“Hey did you see that?”

“A building exploded!”

“What’s that over there?”

“Huh? What’s the ruckus?” Torino asks

“Some kind of fire perhaps?” Iida suggests

“Passengers please hold onto your seats” the intercom advises as the trains start to screech as the brakes are hit before a hero is thrown into the car and pinned down by a four-eyed nomu

“Nomu!” Iida recognizes

“I want you to stay back! You hear me?” Torino commands before zipping off knocking the nomu out of the car

“Gran Torino! No, wait!” Iida tries but is too late. He looks outside the hole getting a view of Hosu.

The city is burning, building collapsing, and fires spreading.

“No way. What the hell is going on here?” He asks

The hero groans and Iida leans down to help him.

“Sir? Sir? Are you ok?” Iida asks but the man is unresponsive.

Iida drags the guy away from the ledge. “Everyone stay back, keep an eye on this man”

“What? You can’t think of actually going out there?”

“I have to, more people could be hurt!” Iida said before leaping out of the train, using the pipes on the back of his suit for increased aerial movement.

The door to the cabs opens as Shinso, Izuku, and Aizawa walk into the cab.

“What's going on? What happened?” Aizawa asks the people

“We saw fires and explosions in the city and then some crazy brain creature threw this hero into the car!” Someone explained

“What’s a nomu doing in hosu?” Izuku asked

“Then some old dude tackled the creature out of the train. There was some kid with him, he looked like Ingenium, who jumped out as well!”

“Oh no, Iida’s here” Aizawa notes

“Eraserhead! What do we do?” Shinoso said as the felt the train comes to a stop

“Shinso you stay here and keep an eye on the people. If the league is involved I can’t risk you getting hurt. Midoriya?” Aizawa starts before realizing Izuku is gone

“God damn it, kid. Shinso keep an eye on everyone. Make sure no one else leaves” Aizawa finished before leaping out of the opening.

In the middle of the fires Nomu run rampant with Shigaraki laughing maniacally at the destruction.

Iida runs quickly through the city, he directs people away from the danger trying to get closer to help. He makes a quick glance at an alleyway that stops him in his tracks.

“That idiot's making a move. And he’s so noisy, I’ll have to dispose of him later. At the moment I have important work to finish here “ Stain says with Pro Hero Native pinned to the wall.

“Why can’t I move? Bastard! I kill you” Native says muffled

“If you call yourself a hero, you should choose your last words with care.” Stain says brandishing his sword. Something catches his eye as Iida flies in with a kick that stain blocks knocking off Iida's helmet.

The resulting outcome is Stain standing in between Iida and native. Iida without his helmet or glasses on.

“A child wearing a suit? Who are you? Run, run away from here. This is not a place for children” Stain warns

“I’m afraid I can’t do that. You’re caring blades all over, and you're wearing a blood-red scarf. You must be the Hero Killer: Stain. No matter. As a hero I can not allow harm to come to other-” Iida starts

“You’re eyes are seering with vengeance. Be careful what you say next. If need be even someone your age can become my target.” Stain warns

“Are you saying I’m not even a threat to you? You listen to me Criminal, I am the brother of an incredible hero who you attacked. I have come to stop your heinous crimes because he can’t anymore. Today marks a day you won’t take another life.” Iida says before his quirk powers up and he speeds past Stain, grabbing onto native and speeding him out of the Alleyway

Stain looks around slightly confused, noticing native is gone he puts up his guard. Iida speeds behind Stain going for a kick to the back. Stain quickly dodges and goes to attack Iida with his blade. Iida evades the attack and the two enter a stand-off.

“I will make sure you can’t hurt anyone else Hero Killer. Remember who it is who put a stop to your vile acts. I am the hero Ingenium! I will stop you”

“So be it. Die”

In the middle of the actions, heroes like Manual are controlling the damage. Fighting off the nomu and keeping citizens safe.

Lucas, BT, and Lucas’s Uncle are in the middle of it.

“Slugger! Help me put out those fires!” His uncle called as his arm connected to a fire hydrant and the other arm opened into a spray nozzle

“Henry Lycan! Or the hero Cyborg! His quirk: Cyborg. He looks like a normal human now, but when the situation calls for it his body turns into some technological creation.” Mic says as a narrator.

“Got! BT keep the Nomu at bay!” Lucas said materializing a Hose to connect to the same Hydrant.

“Copy, engaging target,” BT said grabbing onto the beefier Nomu

Meanwhile, Torino is still fighting the Nomu from before

“I haven’t fought this earnestly in years! Picked a fine time to patrol!” Torino says kicking the Nomu away from some civilians.

The nomu charges at him but Misses as Torino dodged. The creature appears to have a short attention span as it quickly switches to attack the civilians again.

“Stop it you stupid beast!” Torino says before the creature in enveloped in flames

“I was looking for the Elusive hero Killer. But this thing will have to do. Thanks, old timer. I’m afraid I don’t know you. But I can handle this from here on out.” endeavor announces

“Woah, why is he in Hosu?” a random civilian asked

“Heh, Isn’t it obvious? I came because I’m a hero” Endeavor responded

Nearby on a roof “ha, that’s laughable. Now to settle some old scores, and hopefully stop Iida from doing something idiotic” Izuku said looking down at the group

"shoto? huh," Izuku notices pulling out two small discs, putting one on a dagger, and turning them both on. He places the other back in a pouch and pulls out a piece of paper and pen. writes something down and throws the dagger near Shoto before leaping to another roof

Back with Lucas, the group had successfully snuffed out the fires, and BT and Cyborg were dealing with the two Nomu.

“Pilot, hero reports and cellular tracking suggests Iida in currently within the confines of Hosu. The bullet train he was on has been stopped due to the Nomu. and his Phone is located in an alley a few blocks from here.”

“What? Eject me right now. Keep this Nomu occupied” Lucas commanded as BT Ejected out of the top hatch

“Slugger? What the hell are you doing kid!?” Cyborg asked

“Take care of the Nomu! I need to help a friend that’s in danger! BT Listen to my Uncle!” Lucas commanded flying into the air before Using his Grapple to land on a building a bit away.

“Copy. Your move, Cyborg” BT acknowledges

Iida went in for another speed kick, one stain jumped over Iida to dodge.

“Ah! So you are the younger brother of the hero Ingenium? I allowed that fool to live so he can spread my good word! Are you here to take revenge? Such an unheroic act, you don’t deserve the title of hero, kid” Stain said knocking Iida to the ground, Iida, caught himself jumping back up and away from the Killer.

“You fail to see my reasoning for stopping you! How are you supposed to be the judge of false heroes if you can’t judge them correctly? I am here because my brother before me failed to stop you from ruining another life! I shall honor his action by bringing you to justice! No single person should hold the position of judge jury and executioner!” Iida explained

“You sound like someone else I knew. You’re only lying to yourself kid! I see it in your eyes. You’re here purely for revenge” Stain said dashing towards Iida who dodged the attack. Stain was still able to nick Iida’s shoulder.

“I may be lying to myself, but that doesn’t change the fact that someone like you should be stop-” Iida said before collapsing to the ground as Stain licks his blade

“What… is…. This?” Iida stammers out

“The end of the line for you child” Stain brandished his blade, flipping over Iida so he’s lying face up.

BEEP BEEP You f*cking idiot BEEP BEEP You f*cking idiot BEEP BEEP you f*cking idiot BEEP BEEP

Lucas’s voice can be heard from Iida's phone just as Stain is going in for the kill. Stain takes the phone out of Iida's pocket seeing a call from Lucas. Stain crushes the phone and tosses it to the side.

“Farewell, young one. Atleast you died saving one person” Stain moves his sword towards Iida's throat pulling back to prepare to slit it before a rip in the air opens and Lucas is standing over Iida with his own sword holding back the hero killer.

“Hey, Akaguro. How’s the business in the Hero Killing industry? Or is it Child murdering Industry considering who I’m protecting” Lucas says pushing Stain back.

“Circuit? What’s with that outfit?” Stain asked confused

The pilot helmet split open as Lucas gestures to his outfit and says
“Oh, this old thing? It’s my Pilot gear.Yah like it? I say it fits me. Funny enough one of the first people I fought in this was good old Iida behind me. Listen Guro. I understand the purging and sh*t but Child murder is not a good look on you. How about we put the blades down and take a walk to the police department. Mmh kay?”

“Lucas? You know this criminal?!” Iida asks angrily

Stain goes in to attack Circuit with his sword.

“I’ll take that as a no!” Lucas said stepping back, closing his helmet, and pulling up his sword to block the attack.

The two have a back and forth with their blades. Lucas is able to push Stain back before using his jump kit and the alleyway walls to attack from above. As Lucas tries to tackle Stain from above, but Stain pulls up his sword. Lucas enters a rift in reaction appearing behind Stain forming a bow and launching an arrow that Stain slices in half.

“Damn, nice moves” Lucas comments before charging with his sword

“Flattery won’t win you this fight!” Stain said ducking down low and slicing at Lucas's stomach, tearing up the armor and catching some skin.

“sh*t sh*t sh*t sh*t, no wait stain!” Lucas says turning around to watch stain lick his blade, Lucas falls to the ground.

“I won’t kill you Circuit. Not today, but the Ingenium copycat doesn’t deserve the title of hero.” Stain states before walking over to Iida, he holds his blade over his head.

“No! No! Stain please don’t! Iida!” Lucas cries!

Chapter 16: I'm It

Chapter Text

The nomu twitches on the ground as the fire engulfing it dies.

“That was only a low-temperature warming shot, but still it always KOs my opponent” Endeavor points out

“Some things not right this guy is-” Torino is cut off by the creature exploding into fire

“So your quirk is absorption and release, but you still took damage from my fire. Not an impressive power” Endeavor comments

The creature expands its body as it leaps into the air “Watch it todoroki I think this thing got multiple quirks” Torino warns as a flurry of tentacles expands from the mouth of the creature. Before the creature can attack Endeavor or Endeavor can burn it, Torino had launched into the air and rocketed towards the creature slamming it into the ground. Shoto quickly froze over the creature keeping him in place.

“That should hold him for a while. Your not bad old timer.” Endeavor notes

Shoto hears a DINK as something hits the ground near him. It’s a small dagger with disc and a piece of paper attached.
“Hand to the Pros. Compass. Stain? LOV?” it reads. As shoto moves it around the disc beeps. With the beeps being stronger in certain directions. Just as Shoto was about to speak up about it he receives a notification on his phone. “SOS, Iida, Stain” and then a location. And Alleyway that seemingly is in the direction the disc beeps. Shoto tosses the dagger to Endeavor and starts running.

“Wait, Shoto! Where are you going? What is this?” Endeavor asks worriedly

“An Alleyway on 4 2 10 echo street. If you finish up here or see extra pros send them there. As for the dagger. It’s a compass of sorts. Whoever it is tracking is related to stain or the LOV” Shoto says before disappearing by a street.

“I’ll follow the boy. You Go take care of the rest of this” Tornio said before rocketing off

On the roofs of Hosu, izuku makes his way further from the action, trying to pinpoint where Stain was when he spotted something. On top of a water tower, near the action but safe enough away to not get caught in it, Izuku spotted Shigaraki and Kurogiri.

“Figures he would be here,” Izuku said before going invisible, placing the tracker on the water tower, and grabbing a pen. As stealthy as he could he got onto of the water tower with them. His presence put Kurogri on guard. He preceded to simply induce false pain in shigaraki’s leg causing him to fall down, the hand on his face falling down.

“Tomura Shigaraki! Are you alright?” Kurogiri asks worriedly

“Ah sh*t. I’m fine! It’s simply leftover pain from the bullet wounds” He rasped getting up and putting the hand back on. As looked up a Kurogiri he noticed an odd look on the misty face.

“What?” Shigaraki asked confused

Kurogiri let out a small chuckle as he looked at the small smiley face drawn on the back of the hand.

“Hehe, enough of that fun” izuku thought to himself before sinking into the ground.

In the center of the action, Cyborg and BT hold back the nomu. Eraser shows up at the scene.

“What’s the situation?!” he asks

“Eraserhead. 3 Nomu have been spotted within the confines of the City. The Hero Killer is also reported to be here as well.” BT informs as he is pushed back by the beefy Nomu.

They began hitting it with all they have. Any attacks it regenerates from. Even if Eraser erases its quirk the second he blinks the thing is back to 100%. That is intel Endeavor shows up, he hits it with an attack that burns away some skin and muscle that regenerates.

“So you regenerate huh? Can you regenerate from burnt cells?” he asks before slamming a fire some hot into the creature's head that the fire turns blue and the creature falls limp.

“Ah, Eraserhead. Make something of this.” Endeavor said passing the dagger to Eraser who immediately recognized the handwriting as Izuku. As he was about to speak BT spoke

“Analysis of the tracking device suggests it leads to a water tower a couple of blocks from here. A news helicopter in the area has spotted said tower while covering the attack. They don’t realize it but those individuals watching the attack are Kurogiri and Tomura Shigaraki.” BT explains

“Cool Cool we know where the final boss is! Can someone help me?” Cyborg asks as he struggles to keep the Winged Nomu grounded with a grapple.

As the heroes turn towards Cyborg the lines snaps and the Wing Nomu begins to fly away.

“Find heroes to spare. Help is needed in an alleyway on 4 2 10 echo street.” Endeavor says blasting off towards the Nomu. He forms a spear of fire and jams it in the eye of the nomu causing its flight path to become erratic. Endeavor tries to keep up with it.

“Alright BT, you and the other heroes make your way to the Alleyway. Cyborg, you and I will go after Shigaraki” Aizawa commands and BT commands the rest of the heroes to follow him

The pilot helmet split open as Lucas gestures to his outfit and says

“Oh, this old thing? It’s my Pilot gear. Yah like it? I say it fits me. Funny enough one of the first people I fought in this was good old Iida behind me. Listen Guro. I understand the purging and sh*t but Child murder is not a good look on you. How about we put the blades down and take a walk to the police department. Mmh kay?”

“Lucas? You know this criminal?!” Iida asks angrily

Stain goes in to attack Circuit with his sword.

“I’ll take that as a no!” Lucas said stepping back, closing his helmet, and pulling up his sword to block the attack.

The two have a back and forth with their blades. Lucas is able to push Stain back before using his jump kit and the alleyway walls to attack from above. As Lucas tries to tackle Stain from above, but Stain pulls up his sword. Lucas enters a rift in reaction appearing behind Stain forming a bow and launching an arrow that Stain slices in half.

“Damn, nice moves” Lucas comments before charging with his sword

“Flattery won’t win you this fight!” Stain said ducking down low and slicing at Lucas's stomach, tearing up the armor and catching some skin.

“sh*t sh*t sh*t sh*t, no wait stain!” Lucas says turning around to watch stain lick his blade, Lucas falls to the ground.

“I won’t kill you Circuit. Not today, but the Ingenium copycat doesn’t deserve the title of hero.” Stain states before walking over to Iida, he holds his blade over his head.

“No! No! Stain please don’t! Iida!” Lucas cries as Stains blade comes down towards Iida but is stopped but Izuku’s finger holding the blade back.

“Whatcha playing?” Izuku asked in a childish tone.

“Impulse!” Stains said nervously straightening himself and backing away slightly

“I’m glad to see you’re alive” He noted

“Oh, you’re glad to see I’m fine? Really? Cuz I remember being thrown off a bridge.” Izuku said gripping the blade and shattering the sword.

“I’m not angry tho” Izuku said pulling Stain in closer with his telekinesis

“Say, wanna play tag?” Izuku asked tilting his head and confusing stain

“I’m it,” Izuku said flicking Stain on the forehead sending him flying through the alleyway and crashing into a wall causing Izuku to Laugh before he snapped his finger, and Iida and Lucas were able to move again.

“What an entrance” Lucas comments

“Izuku? What is going on-” SLICE Iida started but is cut off by a dagger hitting his shoulder

“You should know that won’t be enough to KO me. I won’t stop intel this filth is purged from the society or I am dead!” Stain declares running at full speed towards the group with his shattered Sword and a dagger. Izuku jumped at him ready to fight but just as they were about to clash and a wave of fire pushed them apart.

“Sorry, I’m late. Thank you, Lucas, for giving me more information than Izuku did” Shoto announced

“Hey! I did what I could while I was on a time crunch forgive me for not having my phone for once. “ Izuku defends grabbing onto his captured scarf

“I can remedy the effects of his quirk but only a couple of times. We can’t afford to get hit so keep your distance. He’s not used to fighting so many people but when he’s in a blind rage like this it doesn’t matter. Shoto, provide cover fire from behind it. Make the terrain difficult. Lucas uses your various powers to confuse him. Iida keep him on his feet we just need to tire him out and overwhelm him. Speed past him, hit him don’t stay engaged for longer than needed” Izuku commands

“What about you?” Shoto asked worriedly

Izuku unsheaths a small sword on his hip and said “I will be doing the exact opposite” before charging toward Stain with the two locking blades. They would go into a back and forth. Shoto would create Ice making it harder for Stain to move correctly. As he would slip up Iida or Lucas would speed in and ram into him. Every time Stain would try to change up this routine the group would force him back into with Shotos Ice and Fire. Lucas threw in some ticks that stain sliced the explosions sending him into a wall. Stain still kept going, fighting until the point where all of them attacked at once. Shoto made a pillar of ice that Stain dodged by jumping in the air. Iida used recipro-burst, giving a super-powered kick to Stain's stomach, Lucas phased right above stain hitting him with a restraining arrow. And as stain fell fighting the restraints Shoto froze him in place. Finally, Izuku placed two fingers inside stain’s head and commanded him to sleep.

“You couldn’t have done that earlier?” Lucas asked out of breath opening his mask

“No” Izuku answered

Shoto melted the Ice and the group disarmed him of all his weapons. They added more restraints and began walking him out of the alleyway.

Meanwhile, Shigaraki is beginning to get bored. His Nomu aren’t causing any more destruction and it’s pissing him off. Before he knew it he was just kicked off the Water tower and restrained by the one and only Eraserhead.

“Am I dreaming or is that Eraserhead is that you?” shigaraki marveled

“Yeah yeah it’s me don’t cream your pants” Aizawa deadpanned as Cyborg pinned Kurogiri to the ground. Eraser also made a mental note to stop spending so much time with the vigilante group.

“This is the end game shigaraki. No more lives. No more retries. No other party members to assist you. Your Nomu are done for.” Aizawa points out

“You forget one thing Eraser. Your tell” Shigaraki says just as erasers hair goes down the ground beneath shigaraki crumbs. Eraser is able to jump back but the hole envelopes Kurogiri and Cyborg as well. The dust doesn’t allow Eraser to see anything and as it clears he can only see Cyborg, knocked out, and no sign of Shigaraki or kurogiri

“Must’ve warped out of here” Eraser noted jumping into the hole to help Cyborg

As the group of kids makes their way out of the alleyway they are greeted by the Pro hero Native.

“Kid! Your alright!” he said looking at Iida

“Native, What are you doing back here? I dragged you away so he couldn’t hurt you” Iida asked

“As soon as the effects of the Hero Killers quirk wore off I had to come back. I could just let some random kid fight the hero killer on his own!” native explained

“Kid!? What are you doing here?? I told you to stay on the train” Torino yelled kicking Iida in the face

“Gran Torino! I apologize for not listening but I knew the Hero Killer had to be out here taking someone's life. I couldn’t stand by knowing I could do something to prevent what happened to my brother from, happening to anyone else” Iida explained

Gran Torino sighed “I’m glad you’re alright kid”

“Me too. Again I’m sorry” Iida apologized

“Around the corner!”
“I here talking”

“The location is just up a head” BTs voice can be heard louder than the other heroes

“Endeavor told us there was a request for help here, but”

“Kids?”

“Those Injuries look bad. I’ll call an ambulance right away”

“Hey look,” One hero says pointing out the knocked out tied up hero Killer

“Ah! Is that? The Hero Killer??” One of them asks

“I’ll get the police on the line,” Another hero says

“Completed. Police and Medical dispatched to this location” BT informed

“Thanks, BT” Lucas said wincing

“Scans indicate you have several cuts along your body, Including a massive slash across the stomach,” BT informed

“Oh is that what that feeling is?” Lucas asked Loopy

“Iida has suffered injuries to his shoulders, legs, and chest. Todoroki has no major injuries. Midoriya has minor cuts on his arms.” BT informed

“Lucas, Midoriya, Todoroki” Iida addressed

“I am so sorry. It’s my fault you are injured. You too tried so hard to get me away from here. To not make this mistake. But I still went after him. I failed both of you” Iida apologized

“Iida. Don’t be so hard on yourself” Izuku started

“If you didn’t show up Native could’ve died. You saved a life man” Lucas continued

“Still. I disobeyed orders, I may have saved a pro but I still went after the Hero Killer. Instead of informing the proper people. In doing so I put you 3 in danger” Iida explained

“Not really. In fact, 2 out of 3 of us already knew stain and his tactics beforehand” Izuku commented
“What?” Iida murmured

“Yeah, it’s a pretty funny story in my opinion.” Lucas comments

“How is me being pushed off a bridge a “funny story” “ Izuku asks jabbing Lucas in the stomach

“OW! The f*ck?” Lucas yells gripping his stomach

With a screech, the winged Nomu would fly over them gripping onto Izuku’s arm before flying higher. Dripping blood from its eye

“Mother f*cker!” Izuku yelled as the thing gripped his arm.

Stain would jolt up Lick the blood off one of the heroes causing the thing to fall and ran over to the falling Nomu. Cutting himself free with a hidden knife and catching up with the Nomu.

“The word hero has lost all meaning in this society! The world is overrun by fakes and criminals like you who chance petty dreams! You must all be purged” He monolog Stabbing the Nomu in the brain and Preventing Izuku from hitting the ground

“Ah, everything that I do. Is to create a stronger society!”

“Calm down Jammal, don’t pull out the nine, hahaha” Izuku memed backing away from the deranged state stain is in.

“Did he just save that kid?”

“He took him hostage”

“Hostage? Izuku? Yeah right” Lucas Scoffed

“Everyone be on your guard we’ve got a fight on our hands”

“Why are you all standing around like fools! The villain must’ve flown this way right?” Endeavor said joining the party

“You took care of the rest?”

“Mostly things got a little rough at the end. Hold on? Don’t tell me that man is?” endeavor said spotting the hero killer who spotted him

“Endeavor” Stain said with such hatred

“Hero Killer!” Endeavor said with such enjoyment lighting up his hand

“Wait todoroki!” Torino warned as The Hero Killer Turned around to face endeavor his mask falling off and him radiating such energy that even the BT was frozen in fear.

“You false hero! I’ll make this right! These streets must run with the blood of hypocrites! Hero! I will reclaim that word! Come on! Just try and stop me you fake! There is only one man I’ll let kill me! The true hero. All Might is Worthy! None- ” His speech is cut off by Izuku's capture scarf wrapping around him. Izuku begins to spin him

“You spin me, right round baby, right round like a record baby right round round!” Izuku sings before throwing Stain into the side of a building

“Home run!” He screams before pausing and saying “I think! I don’t know sports”

“Did he just?” One of the heroes started

“Throw the hero killer into a wall like it was nothing? Yeah. he does that sometimes” Lucas notes

“Who is this kid?” Torino asks

“A f*cking god” Lucas informs as Izuku re-restrains Stain and Eraserhead joins them on the scene.

“I look away for 5 seconds and sneak away to capture the hero killer? Really?” Aizawa said smacking Izuku on the head

“Ow! Eraser! What the f*ck?”

“I am so confused” a random pro notes

On top of a different water tower, Shigaraki watched the whole thing unfold. He decays a pair of binoculars and he declares their leave.
Back on the ground as police and medics arrive Lucas strikes up a conversation with the #2 Hero.

“Say Endeavor, Shoto do me a favor and stand side by side?” Lucas asked turning to the two

They reluctantly did so and Lucas began holding out his hands like a photographer prepping a photo.

“Are you sure you’re related? Pretty boy shoto here looks nothing like you, save for the eye.” Lucas asked

“He gets most of his looks from his mother.” Endeavor commented

“I still don’t know how you didn’t know our relationship before the festival. Endeavor's name is public” Shoto said

“Yeah well I assume there are a lot of Todorokis out there. I mean Izuku’s dad was one” Lucas sated

“What?” Endeavor and Shoto ask together

“Yeah, his name was Hasashi Midoriya. He took my mom's name when they got married. He used to be Hasashi Todoroki.” Izuku joined in

“Hasashi? Did he have a fire-breathing quirk?” Endeavor asked cautiously

“Yeah, why?” Izuku answered

“Hasashi was my Cousin. I haven’t talked to him in decades” Endeavor informed causing Izuku to collapse to the ground.

“You haven’t talked to any family in decades” Shoto added

Lucas began laughing hysterically while Iida and Shoto looked at each other confused

“You have my interest kid. I’ll look more into or relation later, but if everything lines up you could be related to the Number 2 Hero! You must feel honored.” Endeavor explained causing Izuku to cry and Lucas to laugh even more. Endeavor was thoroughly confused.

Hours later in the hosu general hospital

“Did you sleep Izuku?”

“No”

“Thinking about it now. I'm surprised we’re alive. Stain isn’t an easy man to beat” Lucas comments

The doors open and Eraser and Torino walk in.

“So the injured Youngins are awake?” He greets
“Gran Torino-”

“I could yell at you for hours but first-” Torino starts

“You have a visitor” Aizawa finishes

A tall man with a dog head in a black suit walks in.

“This is Hosu’s chief of police. Kenji Tsuragakmae” Torino introduces

The group begins standing up in respect, lucas struggles due to his stomach

“No please stay seated, woof. So you’re the UA students who brought down the hero killer?” Kenji starts

“We are” shoto answers

“Stain has some serious injuries. Server burns and several broken bones. Right now he’s in the hospital under strict guard, woof. Here’s a lesson you should’ve already learned. When quirks became the norm, the police force sought to maintain the status quo. We decided we wouldn’t use quirk as weapons. That’s when heroes came in. They could do what we couldn’t if they were licensed of course. It would be impossible for the police to condone the use of deadly quirk. After all, we’re here to stop such harm from being done. The only reason pros can use their powers now is because of the strict code of ethics that the early heroes chose to abide by. That’s why it’s against the law for uncertified people to use their quirks to cause injury. Whether you were up against the hero killer or not. None of you Have the authority to Harm the villain. That means the 4 of you and your supervisors, Eraser, Torino, Endeavor, and Cyborg are sure to receive a harsh punishment for this gross abuse of your powers-” Kenji explained before being cut off by shoto

“Now wait a minute. If Iida had not stepped in native would’ve been murdered. And if it wasn’t for Izuku Iida would’ve been killed! No one else even realized that the hero killer was in Hosu! Are you say we should’ve just stood by and watched people die?” Todoroki questioned

“So it’s ok to break the law as long as it goes your way?” Kenji asks

“Yes,” Izuku says bluntly

“What?” Everyone besides Eraser and Lucas said together

“I’m going to be as blunt and honest as I can be. Your laws, wack. Your methods, wack. Your heroes, Wack. Instantly arresting someone for saving lives and labeling them as criminals according to the system is the most broken thing in existence. Those "vigilante" laws were never updated from their anti-quirk origins. Stain was right to claim that the present needs to be destroyed. Not only do great heroes get passed over by weak entrance exams like UAs but Bad people like endeavor get to be the #2 hero. The system is f*cked and I have no respect for it. Nothing you can say will change my stance on the situation. You making us pay for helping is the Gross Abuse of your power. ” Izuku ranted

“Kid, while I agree with your sentiment. I’ve been busting my ass to keep the HPSC off your tail and I’m not letting an event like this let them catch you. Listen to the rest of what he has to say” Aizawa informed

“ Everything I’ve said is the official stance of the Police department. But any punishment would only be necessary if this went public. If it did you would be congratulated by citizens everywhere. But you couldn’t escape the legal punishments. On the other hand, we could say endeavor saved the day. Stains burns would support this story completely, and we can pretend you weren’t involved, woof. Thankfully there are very few witnesses. This could be the last you heard of any punishments-”

“Haha no. I’m will kill myself before I let that piece of sh*t hero take credit for our work. Get those Heroes to be silent and tell the world the Vigilante Impulse took out the Hero Killer with Minor help from Endeavor and maybe I’ll be on board with this.” Izuku compromises

“Boy, you’re not exactly in a position to-” Torino starts

“You can’t punish someone who isn’t in your custody. Either it’s that story or I start a revolution and take over the HPSC.” Izuku threatens

“Boy, what is with these drastic measures? Just accept the deal-” Torino starts again

“We can work some story out if that's what you wish. Why that Vigilante in particular?” Kenji reasons

“Impulse is a buddy of mine” Izuku answered

"What sort of story do you have in mind?" Shoto asked

“anwaysImthinkingsomethinglikeVigilanteImpulsetakesdownHeroKillerStainwithassitancefromHeroCyborgEndeavorsoundstoomuchlikeaherothatwouldtrytoarresthimafterwardsarenotevenfightwithhimPluseventhoughhecouldprobablywininafightagainstendeavoritwouldbemorebelievableifheescapedfromsomeoneseemlyinglyeasiertoescapefromAdditionallyIwaswithErasertryingtotakeouttheLOVmembersinthearea” Izuku rambles

“Is he normally like this?” Torino asks

“Not really. I haven’t seen a mutter storm since middle school. Izuku wake up” Lucas says slapping Izuku

“Ah! What the f*ck? Oh right the story-” Izuku realized

“You can come by to the station when you feel better. For now, I only ask that you four get rest. Listen I know it’s not fair, and you won't receive the thanks you would have if the truth was given. But as the Cheif of police let me thank you” Kenji says bowing, before exiting the room

“I’m still gonna over throw the HPSC” Izuku comments

Aizawa facepalmed and sighed before sitting down next to Izuku.
“I’ll join you on that, kid”

The story we ended up with was “Hero Killer Stain attacked 3 UA kids because of their interference in his mission (they tried to save native). The Vigilante Impulse with the help of the Hero Cyborg was able to defeat the hero Killer. Elsewhere in the city, endeavor and multiple other heroes were taking care of Nomu sent by the League while the hero Eraserhead and his intern were trying to capture the LOV members in the city”

Later in the day in a different city, the stories of the Hero Killers take down circulate

“Woah they arrested the Hero Killer!”

“Who took him down?”

“That vigilante Impulse! So cool I love an underdog story”

“Not even taken out by a proper hero. What a shame.”

“I think it’s cool shows that Vigilantes can do what heroes can’t”

“Do you remember those articles about the Hero Killer throwing Impulse off a bridge? Do you think that’s the reason he took him down?”

“Now our continued coverage. Three villains were captured in the Hosu riots. Their identities and motives are yet unknown but they bear a striking resemblance to Nomu that attack the USJ earlier this year. Additional reports of a pro hero encountering two villains known to be connected to the league strengthen the idea that this attack was planned by the LOV. Additional reports suggest that the Hero Killer was working with the League.” One report explains

“The Hero Killer: Stain has more victims than any other criminals since the appearance of All Might. With his arrest, We can all rest a little easier tonight” The other explains

In the League of Villians Bar

“I’m here on echo street. Last night just after 8 pm the Hero Killer was Arrested by Hero Cyborg after the-” The Tv is shut off by Kurogiri

“He’s all they’re talking about. What about my nomu?? Not only have that not forgotten, but we also didn’t even make the front page!” Shigaraki whined

Meanwhile, the rest of class A is doing well during their internships. Momo went on a lot of patrols with Fat Gum and was able to get some fighting experience with a couple of small thugs. Bakugo continued to learn behavioral lessons from best jeanist. Toga was still learning hero laws and behavioral lessons from Midnight. How to put up a persona and switch between them. Uraraka was still getting combat training with Gunhead and Eraser and Shinso returned to UA to train while Izuku and co recovered.

Chapter 17: Exam Prep

Chapter Text

“Stop it your making him cry, Kacchan, If you keep hurting him I’ll stop you myself!” The little green-haired boy cried out taking a shaky fighting stance.

“You want to pretend to be a hero? You don’t stand a chance without a quirk, Deku” Young katsuki said, punching his hands together, causing a small explosion while the two kids with him activated their quirks. The three charged Izuku with an attack of explosions from Katsuki causing flashes of the years of bullying from middle school. When Tsubasa picked up Izuku taking him off the ground images of the winged Nomu attacking Izuku flashed.

What felt like minutes or hours goes by before “Izuku! Izuku!” he heard as a figure leans over him, holding out a hand. Izuku sees Images of Shigaraki disintegrating his throat

“T-t-” he starts but is cut off

“Come on let’s get you to Uncle Mullegen! He can fix those injuries” The boy said pulling Izuku off the ground and basically carrying him towards Inko who even in izuku blurry vision he recognizes due to her green hair. He also sees a tall man standing next to Inko but can’t make out his hair against the bright sunset

Suddenly Izuku shoots up out of bed confused. Looking around he remembers he’s back in his dorm room after a train ride from Hosu

“What? Who were they?” he asked himself

“Tsubasa? Those wings…. was he…. no no that’s not. That couldn’t be I don’t-” Izuku stammers before looking at his clock. 5:36 good a time as any to get up he guesses before putting on his training outfit and heading to the dorm kitchen making his special energy co*cktail and some toast before heading to the gym to train.

Around 6:30 Aizawa shows up.

“Kid, what are you doing here?” He asks concerned

“Last day of the internship. I’m getting workouts done”

“Little early don’t you think?” Aizawa didn’t get a response.

The two would spar as they wait for Shinso. The last day of the internship flew by and before they knew it classes started back up the next day.

“HAHAHAHA Holy Crap! What the heck Bakugo!” Sero and Kirishima laughed looking at a Bakugo with combed hair

“Stop laughing. My hair’s gotten used to this and I can’t get it back the right way! Did you not hear me? I’ll kill you both” Bakugo threatened

“I’d like to see you try Pretty boy” Sero teased

“What did you call me!?” Bakugo yelled his hair exploding into its normal shape

“Awesome! You got to face actual villains? I'm super jealous!” Mina said

“Well, I didn’t fight all I did was help people evacuate and provide logistical support,” Jiro explained

“I spent basically the whole time training and cleaning the ship deck. Well there was this one day we caught a bunch of drug smugglers” Tsu mentioned

“Okay that’s cool,” Mina and Jiro said together

“What about you Ochaco? How was your week?” Tsu asked

“I’d say it was very enlightening,” Uraraka said giving off a dangerous aura

“I think she found her fighting spirit” Tsu commented

“Yeah that battle hero must’ve been something else” Jiro added

“After one week she’s like a totally different person” Kaminari commented

“Different? Don’t be fooled Kaminari. All women are demons at heart. They just hide their true personality behind pretty faces” Mineta said nervously

“What the heck did Mount Lady do to you? Everyone at my internship loved me. It was actually kind of great! Now if you want to talk about the ones who really changed, how about those 4” Kaminari said pointing to Iida, Todoroki, Midoriya, and Lucas

“Oh yeah, the hero killer!” sero realized

“Glad you guys made it back alive! Seriously” Kirishima said

“ I worried about you too” Momo added

“Did you really take him out??” Sato asked Izuku

“Of f*cking course I did. No one pushes me off a bridge and gets away with it!” Izuku said causing Travis to stare at him
“Ok, maybe one person pushes me off a bridge and gets away with it. Eraser did it by accident and stopped me from falling. Stain did it on purpose, now stop looking at me like that” Izuku defended causing Travis to shake his head before turning away

“Did you guys hear the news about the hero killer? Everyone is saying he was somehow connected to the league of villains. Can you imagine how frightening it would be if he was there at the USJ?” Ojiro say

“He’s scary yeah, but did you see him in that weird video? It’s all over the internet” Kaminari adds

“I didn’t know there was a video” Ojiro admits

“Stains a pretty evil villain, but like super tenacious. He’s almost kind of cool don’t you guys think?” Kaminari asks

“Dude seriously?” Lucas asks

“ huh? Oh! Uh, dude-” Kaminari realizes

“No, it’s ok, you’re fine. It is true that he is quite a tenacious villain. I understand why people might think he was cool. But instead of helping the world, his belief leads him to cold-blooded murder. No matter his motives killing can not be condoned. To keep anyone else from suffering like me I promise I will strive to be the perfect hero!” Iida explains

“Hey, why don’t you tell my friend why you killed that guy?” Lucas jokingly asked Izuku

“It was to weed out the fake heroes in society!” Izuku said in a mocking impression of Stain

“Cool motive, still murder,” Lucas said before the two started laughing

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I Am Here! Hope you’re ready to return to our lessons! Today it’s hero basic training. Feels like I haven't seen you in a while! Welcome back! Now than! Listen carefully for what’s in store! We’re gonna be conducting a little race! Take everything you’ve learned from your internships and apply it to this rescue training!” All Might explains

“If it’s rescue training then shouldn’t we be at the USJ instead?!” Iida asked shooting his hands up

“Ah! That facility specializes in disasters. As I said earlier, this is a race. SO! Prepare! You are about to step into field Gamma! Inside is an area full of factories that form an intricate labyrinth so good luck finding your way around. You’ll be competing in groups of 5-6. Each person starts from a different location on the outskirts of the model city. I’ll send a distress signal and you’ll do what you must to rescue me! Whoever finds me first wins! But try to keep the property damage to the bare minimum, please” All Might said pointing at Bakugo

“Why are you pointing at me?” he said angrily

The lesson goes by and after the students change out of their costumes.
In the men's changing room the guys talk about the previous practical lesson.

“That was some tough training today, huh?” Sato asked

“That was the first class in a while that had me glistening” Aoyama commented

“Man I really got work on my mobility” Kirishima lamented

“You can also compensate by working on other skills” Tokoyami pointed out

“Still wish I could use my quirk for speed. I’m jealous of guys like you and sero.” Kaminari said

“Hey Midoriya, You won’t believe what I just found! The jackpot! Someone shaw shanked a hole in the wall. A previous generation has given us a gift. You know what's next door to us right?” Mineta explained

“The girls changing room, right? What do you plan on doing with this information?” Lucas asked

“None of your weird fourth wall-breaking threats can stop me this time! I wanna-” Mineta said going on an insanely creepy description of what he wanted to see from his female classmates before he is impaled by an arrow in the shoulder causing him to fall to the ground in pain.

All the guys look at Lucas dematerializing his bow.

“I think it’s about time we earn the Minoru Mineta is Expelled from UA Tag,” Lucas says before putting on his shirt and picking up Mineta by the collar and heading toward the door

“I'm taking him to Recovery girl. Someone cover up the hole.” Lucas said leaving the room

“I got it,” Travis said making some metal and filling the hole

“Jeez, that attack was brutal” Kaminari laments

“Yeah remind me never to get on Lucas’s bad side” Sero notes

In the girls changing room.
“What’s going on?” Toga asked Jiro who had her earphone jack in the wall

“Mineta was trying to peak into the changing room using this hole” started

“Despicable. How dare he!” Momo said disgustedly

“Lucas apparently shot an arrow into him and is now taking him to recovery girl” Jiro continued

“Sound like something he’d do” Toga commented

“Lucas said something about finally getting Mineta expelled. And Travis is filling the hole” Jiro finishes and as she does the hole fills up with metal.

—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As class starts Aizawa stands at the podium with Lucas standing next to him

“Hello class before we start today I have an announcement to make-” Aizawa starts but is cut off by Iida raising his hand

“Does this have anything to do with yesterday's events in the changing rooms!?” He asks

“Yes. As of Yesterday afternoon, Minoru Mineta is no longer enrolled in UA. I would like to sincerely apologize to you for waiting this long. While his behavior towards the women in this class was unacceptable I was hoping your Rep would reign in his behavior” Aizawa explained

“In the end, Mineta is a lost cause. Instead, the next purple bastard to join our ranks will be hypnotically better” Lucas informed

“Sir, Will Lucas be receiving punishment for impaling Mineta with an Arrow!?” Iida asked his hand shooting in the air again

“When I pinned Mineta to the ceiling of the lunch room during the Sports festival I did not serve hard time. I think I got an award” Lucas comments

“Lucas excised caution and used the right amount of force for the situation. Mineta did not receive any lasting injuries so no punishment is necessary” Aizawa explained

“Mineta could try and have his parents sue me but you should be able to guess how that would go” Lucas added

“I can’t tell if that means you’d shoot him again-” Kaminari started

“Or your rich parents would hire incredible lawyers” Sero finished
“ I’ll let you leave that to your own interpretation,” Lucas says before Aizawa told him to go to his seat.

When the day ends and everyone returns to the dorms the girls get together in the lounge. They were about to put on a movie as Izuku and Lucas got back from some training.

“Oh, Lucas, Izuku hey! We are about to put on a movie wanna join us?” Mina asked as Izuku walked to the kitchen.

“What movie?” Lucas asked

“It’s an old Disney movie, Ribbit” Tsu stated

“The name of the movie is Encanto,” Jiro informed

“YO! I love that movie! The music is the best!” Izuku yelled from the Kitchen

“Hey Izuku, grab some Root beer and Chips I'm gonna go get changed then we can watch this movie!” Lucas called into the kitchen

“That’s a copy!” the group heard from the kitchen as Lucas went upstairs.

A little bit later Izuku came out of the kitchen holding 3 bags of chips and a case of Root beer.

“I hope you plan on sharing!” Mina stated

“Of course! Anything else you girls want me to grab?” Izuku asked

“Did anyone grab blankets?” Jiro asked

“No, but I could,” Momo Started as blankets folded into rolls are tossed down the stairs, Lucas shortly behind them in a T-shirt and pajama pants. He had a second set of clothes that he threw at Izuku who caught them before they hit him. Izuku disappeared and so did the clothes and then he reappeared in the clothes thrown at him.

“Let’s get this movie started!” Izuku demanded as he floated himself onto the couch. He placed the food on the table and grabs a root beer.

Everyone followed behind him, taking their places on the couch, chair, or floor, grabbing a blanket and pillow, Lucas turned the lights off and the movie started.

—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lucas woke up to see the movie had ended. Today's hero training had been a little much for everyone even Izuku. Everyone was asleep. Jiro, Mina, and Momo were all cuddled up on the right side of the couch with Jiro and Mina leaning against Momo. Lucas was leaning against Izuku’s right while Tsu was on Lucas’s right. Uraraka and Toga had taken a seat together in a chair staying to the sides of each other.

What do I do? I don’t want to wake them all up. I also want to stay in my own bed, too Lucas thought as he looked around for a clock it was past 12 so the movie had been over for over an hour. Did no one really see us and think to wake us up? Did they also not want to bother us? Or were they also too tired from the training to care? he continued to question. Lucas felt a weight shift as Tsu woke up. sh*t. Did I wake her?

“Lucas?” Tsu asked tiredly

“sh*t, sorry Tsu I must have awoken you-” Lucas whispered

“It’s fine. We should probably wake the others up so we can go to our rooms” As Tsu whispered this on cue they heard the groans of their classmates as they began to wake up
did she just will them awake? Lucas asked himself

“Tsu? Lucas? How long have we been out?” Mina asked as she got off of Momo. The action causes momo to wake up further which also woke up Jiro.

“Almost two hours maybe? The last thing I remember was towards the ending” Lucas explained

Mina stands up, and stretches while yawning before asking “I wonder why no one else woke us up?”

Lucas stands and stretches as well saying “I’m gonna head back to my room to sleep the rest of the night, you guys can keep the blankets. Good Night” He begins walking towards the staircase when Momo calls his name causing him to turn around to see most of the girls looking at him. This makes him slightly uncomfortable.

“Thank You” Momo starts

“For getting rid of the nasty perve” Mina continues

“And for stopping him from spying on us”

“D-Don’t thank me. It’s my fault it took so long I should’ve gotten rid of him when I had the chance.” Lucas apologized

“Don’t try the apologies for that. You did the best you could Class Rep. You tried to see the best in him and weed out his bad behavior. It’s his own fault so don’t beat yourself up for it” Jiro adds

“Thanks. Good Night girls” Lucas said turning back toward the stairs

“Good Night Lucas”
“Sleep well”
“Good Night Class rep”
“Night!”

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10 minutes till class starts and a good portion of the class is already there. Lucas leans against his desk as Kaminari and Kirishima walk toward him.

“I have to say! It was extremely manly the way you got rid of Mineta! His actions were so unmanly!” Kirishima Compliments?

“As much I hung out with the guy I'm glad he’s gone” Kaminari added

“Well, I consider myself a scholar and Gentleman-” Lucas starts

“And he usually doesn’t fall when he tries to stand” Izuku buts in

“He lost a bet to a guy in a chiffon skirt” Toga joins

“But I make these high heels work!” Lucas ends bring his leg up on a chair revealing he is wearing a pair of high heels

“You actually made a pair of Heels for the f*cking Bit? How do you even have the blueprints for that??” Toga asked in disbelief

“I will do anything for a bit. And my mom’s a fashion designer what did you expect?” Lucas said as the heels dematerialize and his normal ones materialize

Aizawa walks in causing everyone to take their seats as quickly as possible.

“ As I’m sure you know, your final exam is in 3 weeks. I'm sure you’re all studying constantly, right? And don’t think you can slack off on your training. The written exam is only one element. There is also the practical portion to worry about. This hour will be a study hall. I have business to take care of. I’m sure your rep can reign you in” Aizawa announced before leaving as fast as He showed up

“Cause problems and you’ll meet the same fate as Mineta” Lucas commented pulling out his notes to start studying
“With an arrow in the chest?” Sato Asked

“Or expelled?” Sero asked

“Mineta got both didn’t he?” Lucas glared

“I barely took any notes this semester! With the sports festival and internships, I’ve barely had time to read the textbook! How am I supposed to learn all this in 3 weeks?” Kaminari cried

“It doesn’t seem that impossible. Although I am still worried about the exams” Mina added

“Don’t worry about it you two. I can catch you up on the important topics if you want” Momo offered

“You’re the best Yaomomo!” Mina and Kaminari said together

“Although I don’t entirely know what to do about the physical exam” Momo commented

“I can help with that” Lucas joined

“I’ve been studying, but... Could you help me out too? I’m having some trouble understanding quadratic functions” Jiro asked

“Really?” Momo commented

“Tutor me, please! Classical Japanese is killing me!” Sero joined

“Is the room for one more? I’m afraid I’m falling behind a little” Ojire joined

“Yes! Let’s do it! We can hold a study session in the lounge over the next few weekends” Momo declares

“You can join us vigilantes in the gyms. We’ve been training there after school since the USJ and you guys can always join us. I won’t be there or in class next week so go to Izuku for combat training and Momo for class rep duties” Lucas explained

“Where are you going Rep?” Jiro asked

“Oh, thats right your Support Internship!” Toga exclaims

“Support Internship?” the class questions

“Lucas here is enrolled in both the UA Hero Course and a version of their Support course. His parents handle the lessons with the school. But for the Support Courses Internship week Lucas will be absent from classes and so will the rest of the support department be absent from the school” Izuku explained

“Why am I not surprised you would be in the support course as well, Wires?” Bakugo adds

“Because I’m f*cking awesome”

—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the start of the next week, Lucas makes his way to the support department. As he opens the door he is immediately greeted by Mei holding 2 big bags filled with probably inventions. Considering how heavy some of those inventions might be Lucas has decided he’s now slightly more terrified of Mei.

“Hey Mei. I see you’re ready for our internship.” Lucas greeted

“Yep, I have a bunch of tools and babies to bring with me!” Mei responded

“Well let’s get going,” Lucas says gesturing for Mei to follow him. Mei does and the two enter the Elevator, Lucas pressing the button for the roof.

Once they arrive on the roof Mei realizes where they’ve been going

“Wait, Why did we go here?”

“Oh, that’s simple really. The fastest form of travel is by air. And also the place we’re going isn’t in town” Lucas said pressing a button on his control panel causing a VTOL to uncloak and wake up.
The engines power up and not long after the whole thing raises into the air and turns around. The landing gear folds away while the back door opens and a ramp comes out. Lucas grabs one of Mei's bags and jumps into the VTOL using a grapple to assist in getting up. He places the bag down and holds his hand out gesturing for Mei to hand him the other one. She does and he places that one down as well finally holding his hand out to help Mei get in. As he helps her in the ramp folds in and the door closes.

Mei looks around the room they are in and see’s it’s a cargo room. Lucas tells her to just leave her bags in there and they head into the next room. It is decorated like a living room, with a couch, and a chair set across from a TV. In this room, there are 5 other doors, one on the wall opposite to which they came in. Two on the wall to the right and two on the wall to the left.
Lucas points to one of the ones on the left.

“That is an equipment closet with first aid and stuff” He moves on to the next one.
“This is a bathroom” He moves to the doors on the right
“These two are bedrooms”
And the final door
“This one leads into the kitchen which has another door that leads into the co*ckpit. It’s on autopilot right now, so no need to go in there.”

“Neat! I’ll just chill on the couch and come up with some designs for awesome babies to make over the week!” Mei said with excitement

“Cool Cool. I’ll be in one of the bedrooms taking a nap.” He said as his clothing reshapes itself into a more comfortable outfit as he enters one of the bedrooms, plopping down he’s ready for an intense week at the Lycan Labs offshore Rig. He eventually fades into unconsciousness, waking up to see Mei staring at him in his room.

“Mei?”

“Ah, you’re awake… I think we are almost there”

“Oh that’s what this is about, Alright, damn I must’ve slept for longer than I thought,” Lucas says gettings up and heading for the co*ckpit as Mei follows him. He takes a seat at the controls, looking out the window he can see the rig in the distance.
