EndeavorFan2412          

yooo! the hell is up with Hosu? I saw the news and all, but holy shit, there's a whole lot of smoke there and I know damn well Endeavor still ain't there yet

          xX_RyuukyuuSlays_Xx

Hey, been wondering the same thing, the news still hasn't said much, other than something called Noumu or whatever.

          WashaMonger

a trio of kids from UA just beat the shit out of Stain. And it was leaked like, now.

          All-Right012

And the same trio and a couple of other students also is helping out with the whole incident. Like, it's ridiculous how the brown haired girl can just chuck their red classmate at a bunch of flying Noumus, and it fucking works.

          MetalYoroi

Same with her kicking a truck at Stain's dumb ahh face, before the three beat the living shit out of Stain and arrested him! It was amazing how easy they beat him, even when Recipro-Knight -Hero-In-Training, mind you- even saved Native, the National Hero, by distracting Stain with his own ideology!

          DekuFanboy001

Hey youngsters! Let me just find it real quick, she didn't kick a truck on his face. It was a broken car, and it fell on his body and not just his head.

          EndeavorFan2412

Eh? Wasn't you nick just "HeroCentral101", SpikeyOldMan? Also, cool vid you made this morning, it's rare to see some appreciation for Heroes like the @WildWildPussycats! or @Biteof87_Thirteen

          DekuFanboy001

Used to, but... Deku is the greenette in this video. Ever heard such an inspiring name before? No? Cause I met him before he even got to U.A, and I'll tell ya he'll be the next Number 1 if you don't watch him closely. And I'll be the first one to stan my boy, and soon make a video about him the moment he can do an interview! Look: 

... ???'s POV

          It was an empty alley in the night. A man in armor was kneeling in front of a bleeding Hero, as a very familiar figure stood, licking his blade. "Hm... I didn't expect to see you still standing, Ingenium. Unless you are his son or something, I made sure your armor would be too messed up to be even usable..." ... Stain, mocked the man.

          "F-Fuck... Y-You. Y-You maimed my b-brother, Stain..." ... Oh, it's little Tenya. Well shit.

          Stain tilted his head curiously. "Ah? How interesting... The little brother came all this way to attempt, and fail, at killing me?" Stain instigated. Probably trying to see what's the reaction of the boy.

          Iida growled at his words. "... No. I-I'm here to stop your killing. pref-ferably, to save anyone y-you try to target... So no o-one gets hurts b-by you again..." He managed to stutter out... Is it because of Stain's Quirk?

          Speaking of, Stain's eyes seemed to widen for a moment, before a big smile spread upon his face. "Good. That's good. I suppose it'd be very hypocritical of not letting you try again, little Heroling. Unfortunately, still a bit far from a True Hero, but I suppose you're still learning..."

          Stain slowly crept towards the bleeding Hero, that appears to be a fully paralyzed Native. Iida panicked, before yelling out a question. "W-What's a True Hero in y-your eyes, S-Stain!?"

          ... Stain stopped on his tracks, looking at Iida with a look of... Satisfaction? "... I would love to explain, little Ingenium. Would you like to know why I didn't kill your brother, but killed any other Hero I encountered under my current name?"

          Oh, Tenya must be trying to buy time, so any Hero nearby could try to save Native. "... N-No? I know my b-brother does patrols every single day and night, gives most of his pay for charity, makes most, if not all, of his Sidekicks have the ability to make Hosu safe... In the case someone like you maims him from working ever again... A-And most of the Heroes you killed were also g-good people... M-Ms. Kiryu, One-Off and many others who you m-mercilessly killed..."

          Stain chuckled at the last sentiment. "Good research. Bad source. Did you know that Ingenium's grandfather, the one before him, and most of the Ingeniums before them were all highly corrupt? Drug trafficking, child labor... Heteromorph Trafficking. Wouldn't you agree that your brother couldn't take up on the whole... Family business?"

          Hm. Ingenium-Locomotive was also a registered sex offender. Forgot about that one. "... N-No. He wouldn't. I-I didn't k-know much about grandpa or met him personally, but I know that with everything he had done, my family d-decided to separate themselves from that old man... I doubt my brother would do s-such a thing. What even is your evidence? Causality?" Iida responded.

          Stain smirk didn't leave his face. "Evidence? Isn't it obvious? HE TREATS HERO WORK LIKE A 9 TO FIVE!! OF COURSE HE MUST HAVE OTHER SINS IN HIS CLOSET OF SECRETS!! I DIDN'T KILL HIM BECAUSE HE COULD AT LEAST GROW TO CHANGE HIS WAYS, BUT THIS MAN!?-" Points a blade towards Native. "-THIS RIGHT HERE IS ANOTHER FAKE HERO!!! HE IS HERE IN JAPAN ONLY FOR MONEY AND FORCING HIS CULTURE DOWN UPON OUR PEOPLE!! ALL-MIGHT WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING!!! CAN'T YOU SEE THE CLEAR EVIDENCE!?!?" Stain maniacally yelled out towards the boy.

          ... The boy was wearing an heavy-duty helmet and armor in comparison to his brother, but even Hawks could feel the obvious deadpan stare he was giving Stain. "... My brother has a family. He obviously needs time to at least be with his wife and kids, sir. And he also needs some of the money to feed his family, but wants to get it in a way where he can at least help people as well, like father and Ingenium-Wheel. N-Not only that, but Native is Japanese and Native-American, and he teaches people about a little about his culture while also advocating to love your own culture and history, and to embrace it... D-Did you not know that?" Iida calmly stated to Stain.

          ... Stain remained silent, with his blade still pointing towards Native. "... wELL IT'S TOO BAD, HE SHOULD'VE WORKED MORE LIKE A HERO THAN A CULTURE WARRIOR!!! NOW, DIE NATIVE-"

          BOOM!!

          "DELAWARE SMASH!!!"

          A green blur kicked Stain in the face, making him fly straight to a wall far from the two Heroes, embedding the man into it. "TEN- R-RECIPRO-KNIGHT!! ARE YOU OKAY!?" The green and white Hero-In-Training yelled out towards the boy in armor. Nearly saying his name out loud, but good enough.

          Recipro-Knight, according to the greenette, was relieved to see him. "Y-Yeah, no need to yell! Thank you for responding to my distress signal, I-I... I know I shouldn't be here but-"

          The greenette hugged the paralyzed form of Recipro-Knight. "I know, I know. I'm just thankful you're a-alive, T-... Recipro-Knight." He said, taking a breath.

          "... No need to worry, Deku. Native is still breathing but S-Stain has a Quirk that appears to paralyze people. I'm not sure what he did for it to work, but he seems to like licking his blade a lot..." Reciproman told Deku -Who names themselves 'Useless'?- who ran towards the downed Hero, and started to bandage him up. "A-Also, I don't Stain will be down for the count with only one kick, n-no matter the fact you can now control your Quirk now... Which by the way, superb visual effects man. Green sparks looks pretty good on your new suit, and white fits you like a glove."

          Deku chuckled lightly, finishing with stopping Native's bleeding and crudely bandaged him. "Thanks! My master taught me how to control it now, but... Did Stain use his Quirk on you a while longer, for Native to be nearly completely still?" He asked of Recipro-Knight.

          "Kind of... I am now feeling myself being able to move a little... I'd recommend calling for some extra assistance, just to make sure." Recipro-Knight said, slowly getting up.

          Deku helped his friend up, as both got into their stances. "Already did, and one of our classmates should get here soon enough. Probably Graviraka, Gun-Head was going to Hosu this morning, if my sources aren't wrong."

          "Alright... Let's apprehend The Hero Killer, Deku!-"

          "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

          The two looked fourth, as Stain got up, and cackled at the two. "HOW EXHILIRATING!!! YOU ARE TRUE HEROES IN THIS WORLD OF FAKES!!! DO YOUR BEST, IF YOU CAN!!!" He yelled out, pulling out a pair of swords.

          ... "... Recipro-Knight, get Native out of here, actually. I don't think having him here with Stain around would be a good idea." He whispered to his classmate, who nodded.

          In only a couple of moments, Stain charged fourth and clashed with Deku, while Reciproman turned around, and quickly hauled Native on his shoulder and ran out of the alleyway. Deku parried slash after slash from Stain, avoiding any attempt of the many blades on Stain's arsenal from touching him.

          "GET BACK HERE, HEROLING!!-" ... It was actually, quite the sight to see. Stain's fighting style was... Chaotic, to say the least. Dozens of blades seemed to be hidden in Stain's suit, and along with his speed, he had quite the strength behind his slashes and stabs. Not only that, but even seemed to slash at his enemies at random, and with his agility, could easily switch up on how and where he is going to attack. Even his calves could be a possible stab wound if you don't pay attention...

          ... But Deku seemed to be different from anything he had fought. His green lightning bolts seemed to be a perfect counter to Stain's fighting style, being able to protect himself from most of the 'Secondary' blades on him. And if one was to simplify what Deku fights like, it could be as simple as... 'Graceful like a butterfly, and Stings like a Bee.' He fought with graceful weaves and dodges, using his sparks to block whatever he couldn't, and focusing this energy to both parry the main weapons Stain was using to attack, but to also strike Stain with hits made to knock him out.

          Even though, Stain seems otherworldly determined to not be knocked down easily. "-STOP HALTING MY MISSION, HEROLING, I MUST ERASE THAT FAKE FIRST!!!"

          "THEN STOP RESISTING ARREST!! LONDON SMASH!!!" Deku kicked him on the chin, pushing him into the air with some relative difficulty-

          "RECIPRO TAKE-DOWN!!!" -Until, Recipro-Knight hits him with a clean jet-boosted cartwheel into the floor.

          Deku stopped, getting some room to breath for once as Recipro-Knight skidded back to his side. "I AM BACK, DEKU!! Native will get medical attention by the paramedics, Noumus are all around, and many Heroes are trying to put a stop to them. Let's finish Stain and help them out!" He said, getting a breath as well, but still in a stance.

          "O-Okay! Let's finish this then-"

          "Heh." The two snapped towards the cloud of smoke, seeing Stain still trying to get up. The man's right arm even seemed pulverized... "Y-You... A-Are g-going to need m-more than tha-ha-hat to stop me... I-I'M THE HERO KI-"

          CRASH!!!

          ...

          The two were ready in the case Stain would get up but... They suppose it's hard for someone to get up when a car crashes on top of them.

          "Hey boys! S-Sorry it took so long to get here, Gunhead-Sensei was still driving to Hosu's South side when your distress signal called, Recipro-Knight! I'm thankful Deku-Kun was closer, at least!" A girl in a... Oddly tight suit slowly floated down onto the car, before gently floating towards them, breathing a bit hard. She probably ran from... Wherever Gunhead was at, so fair enough if it was far away.

          The two guys chuckled, as she rush onto Deku, giving him a big hug. "H-Hey Ur- G-Graviraka! It's good that you're here. We'd waste so much time on trying to hold Stain still..." Deku sighed, while Recipro-Knight looked up into the... Camera.

          "Uh... Colleges. Would the fact that we fought against Stain in front of a camera bad? Well, n-not exactly in a legal way -I know it was kind of wrong for me to go after Stain- but what about the moral side?" He asked the hugging duo.

          Graviraka, looked up, noticing the recording camera. "... Eh." She simply shrugged, causing both guys to chuckle a little. "I-I mean, it isn't a legal  problem since I got Gunhead's permission to get here. What about you boys?"

          "Gran-Torino allowed me to fight to protect people, in which case, Native and Recipro-Knight kinda count as people I had to protect." Deku said, letting her down onto the ground.

          Recipro-Knight scratched his helmet's chin. "Hm... I think Manual did say I could go save people, in the case we were separated. So... Technically it isn't a crime I went in a random alleyway and happened to find Stain, since the chances to have actually found him were low... Let's go beat those Noumu and bring Stain to the police then, Deku and Graviraka!" He bellowed out to his friends, chopping his arm in a lighthearted manner.

          Deku's lightning circled around the ground, and with Graviraka's help, pulled the out the section of the floor that Stain was stuck on. "Yeah! Let's go guys, when Heroes need to be saved, it's the job of other Heroes to save them as well!!" Graviraka said with vigor.

          "Right! Come on!" Deku said, as the trio ran out of the alleyway. Recipro-Knight rushed out of the alleyway, already crashing right through Noumus left and right, Deku flicking air blasts on far away targets, and Graviraka pulling out- IS SHE USING PART OF THE STREET AS A SWORD!?!?- 

EndeavorFan2412          

... Damn. These three really did make a joke of a Villain that killed over 30 Heroes. Recipro-Knight personally takes the cake by distracting Stain and calling for help.

          xX_RyuukyuuSlays_Xx

HOLY SHIT, WHO'S THE GIRL!? SHE JUST THREW A CAR ON STAIN, AND PULLED OUT A WHOLE ASS ROAD AS HER WEAPON!!! THAT'S SO BADASS!!!

          DekuFanboy001

And that's not all! Here's more:

          A light blue woman was quickly reporting the events that was going on in the city. "-And it appears that there is over a couple dozen people dead already. It seems like Villains launched an attack on Hosu's people with their Noumus, causing general panic as even some of the Top 25 are having difficulty dealing with these... Noumus, according to our sources. This is Kizuki Chitose from Channel 19 and- BEHIND YOU!!" The woman yelled out to the cameraman, as a flying Noumu was ever so close to crashing towards them-

          "DOUBLE RIOT- / -SHIELD BASH!!" A kid in red and a metallic boy were flung at the Noumu, punching it down from the sky, and falling in the other side of the street. The camera shifted towards a familiar brunette girl in navy blue and pink, along with people being guided away by her.

          "W-Who... Who are they!?" The Kizuki yelled out in confusion. "G-Get closer, we got a scoop!" She yelled to the cameraman, as both ran closer to the scene.

          The girl in question was cleaning up debris, while also taking flying Noumu out of the sky. "YOKAI!! HERE'S SOME MORE!!!" She yelled out to a girl with silver hair, chucking more of the rubble towards her.

          Yokai got the rocks with her telekinetic Quirk, as she flung the stones into the Noumu like missiles. "Go back to thy graves, FOUL UNDEAD!!!" She yelled out, as the rocks took many of flying Noumus out.

          "H-Hello? W-We're from Channel 19, and we wanted to know who are you two? What about the ones you flung just a while ago!?" Kizuki asked the auburn Hero.

          Said girl nearly punched the woman's head off with how she looked at her, but quickly noticed that the woman wasn't an Noumu, and went into her usual self. "A-Ah! H-Hi, um... I-I'm Graviraka, and this is R- Yokai! We were cleaning some of the area in the case there were any people under these debris, but now we're currently trying to do that while also stopping the Noumus that are flying. Some Heroes and classmates were having difficulty fighting against the grounded ones when there's constant flying support for the Noumus. I'd recommend to stand back from the road, there's a couple of our classmates that are using it to go around the city, along with other Heroes and also the Medical Services, and they are fast."

          Just as she said that, a man in armor happened to just stop by. Sonic boom included, he has rockets on his calves and back after all. "Graviraka, Yokai! We're practically done with the center of Hosu, what's the situation- WHY ARE THERE STILL PEOPLE HERE!? DIDN'T YOU HEAR THE WARNING SIRENS!?" The man in armor chopped his arm up and down, chastising the reporting crew.

          The cameraman and reporter both were surprised, and seemed a bit taken a back. "N-No? We didn't hear it if it played out, d-didn't know it was this serious of an situation..."

          The man in the armor sighed. "It isn't just an 'serious' situation. The League of Villains launched an attack in the whole city with Noumus, and most of the Heroes were, to some degree, having difficulty fighting against them. I doubt you did not hear the sirens, but I suppose we'll ignore it for now. Yokai-San, is anyone else from 2-B around? And where's Red-Riot-San and Real-Steel-San? I thought they'd be around here..."

          "E-Eh!? 2-B- A-ARE YOU FROM U.A!?" Kizuku yelled out to the young Heroes.

          ... The three simply looked at the two with deadpans under their masks. "What about it, pals? / Is something bothering thou? / Is anything wrong about us helping you, ma'am?" They said at once. It is up to you to discover who said what.

          "YOU'RE KIDS!!!" Kizuki yelled to them, who simply stared at her.

          Yokai shrugged. "... And thou are the adults. Act as such, and calm thy horses, please." She deadpanned.

          Graviraka and the others ignored what the reporter said, continuing what they were talking about. "Oh, it's just us from both classes actually. But Red-Riot and Real-Steel both wanted to beat the flying Noumu and also assist everyone in a couple of blocks away, so we chucked them up into the sky to do so, but they should still be fine-"

          "WERE A- / -OKAY, JOSÉ!!!" A pair of a kids, and a metallic one and a hardened one, both ran from the alleys, coming towards them.

          The man in armor grabbed the radio on his pocket, talking to someone. "We're clear in the northern side. We'll take two more of the civilians to the evac, along with anyone else we manage to find on our way, but we need to know which hospital we must go to since we are basically just improvising from start to finish. Recipro-Knight, over." The, now identified man told to whoever was in the other end.

          A loud voice came from the radio's end. "SO 2-A FINALLY DECIDED TO BE USEFUL TO US, 2-B STUDENTS!? HOW MARVELOUS OF YOU TO DO SOME DECENT WORK!! YOKAI-SAN AND REAL-STEEL-SAN MUST HAVE BOTH DONE TWICE THE WORK YOU FOOLS COULD EVER HOPE TO DO!!!-" The cocky voice was stopped, before a different and nicer voice came out.

          "Sorry about uh... Phantom-Thief. We're also done here with the South, and the East side also warned that they were done. We can go rest at the Hospital at the... 13th Kaiba Avenue now, since Endeavor took over the Western side of Hosu along with Indominus and his sidekicks, over." She said, responding to Reciproman's call.

          Recipro-Knight nodded to the auburn, and his classmates. "You heard Looney-Fist. Let's do a small headcount, to make sure no one's missing. Graviraka, Yokai, Real-Steel and Red-Riot are all here, while Acidomorph, Rico-Tail, Sugar-Rush and Beast-Star all moved to the North-Western section... Uh... Where is Dek-"

          SKRRRRRR RRRRrrt...

          The five looked at the end of the street, seeing an familiar green and white suit, and a... old man in a white and yellow suit skid from the city, to right in front of them. "Hah... Hah... G-Gran-Torino-San, d-did we really have to run like this just to get here?" The young man asked the old man, crouching down while taking a breather.

          "Get smeared? Smear what, my boy?" The old man jokingly replied, making the younger man groan in annoyance and from being tired.

          "Ah, there's Deku. Everyone, let's go to the extraction point, there's some ambulances for us to ride to the avenue. It's just around the corner!" Recipro-Knight said, hauling Deku on his shoulder, and walking towards the end of the street.

          The video ends right then, as the young Heroes walk towards the extraction point, and still keeping the reporting crew safe.

EndeavorFan2412          

Ooooh. The students from 2-A and 2-B of U.A are just acting in the whole incident like any other Pro-Hero?

          YoroiStanUnited

What has the world turned to. Kids were putting up a better job than some of the Heroes we have today.

          MirukoShouldBeNumber1

At this point, we might as well act on our own if these Heroes can't do shit, but these kids can. Miruko would, and probably is proud.

          DekuFanboy001

But don't forget, they were attacked by Villains in their third day of class this year. No wonder they'll act seriously in a case of emergency.

          xX_RyuukyuuSlays_Xx

YO, HPSC'S PRESIDENT IS LIVE ON TV!! THEY GOT A WHOLE CONFERENCE AND EVERYTHING ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED!! LOOK:

          An old man stood in front of the HPSC's stand, prepared for situations like these. "-And it is with all of my heart, that I thank the young men and women that were on the scene along with the Pro-Heroes. Although, I will recommend you all that they are only in training, and on technicality, were not meant to be there. The League of Villains forced our highly trained Heroes to require the back up of other Heroes, and the students were all the closest in the area. It is... Surprising that about 20 teenagers from U.A High School's Hero Courses 2-A and 2-B managed to be of such help on the level that they were, managing to take down many of Noumus, and giving the older Heroes the information that Noumus are reanimated corpses, and thus, can simply be 'killed' without any ethical repercussions in the name of the law. This helped with their morale, and they managed to end the incident without many casualties, and limiting heavy damage." The President calmly stated.

          "WILL THESE HEROES-IN-TRAINING BE ALLOWED TO ACT MORE!?"

          "YEAH, SHOULDN'T THE KIDS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO GO ON PATROLS IF THEY CAN DO SUCH A MAJOR ROLE IN EMERGENCIES!?"

          "HOW ARE THERE PROS THAT ARE WORSE THAN KIDS WITH BARELY AN YEAR AND A MONTH OF TRAINING!?"

          Many questions came from the reporters in the area.

          "Uh... W-We're still thinking of what should be done, since at every moment there appears to be more information over the actions of U.A's Heroes-In-Training not just in Hosu, but also in Kamino, Tokyo and other places where they happen to be doing a lot of work in only these last three days. We will consider the possibility they could act on their own, or increase how long they can act in their Pseudo-Internships, but for now we will not be answering these questions." The president said, not answering any other questions as he left.

EndeavorFan2412          

... Welp. I guess we'll have new Heroes, even if they are in training, huh? What a weird time to be Japanese.

          DekuFanboy001

Hi-hi. We are, and I'll say it here. Deku's getting in the Top 3 by the end of the year if he's allowed to go on patrols!

          MirukoShouldBeNumber1

Hm... Nah, Red-Riot or Real-Steel will be there first. CRIMSON-RIOT FANS, STAND UP FOR THESE MANLY HEROES!!!

          xX_RyuukyuuSlays_Xx

Well I'm a certified Graviraka stan now, if she's going to be acting as cute but cool like she did just now! GIRL POWER, WOMEN!!!

EndeavorFan2412          

... You know what? No, Recipro-Knight is getting there faster! If Ingenium just wasn't in the Top 10 because he wanted to be a family man, the younger brother is getting there faster thanks to him being single! C'MON, RECIPRO-SQUIRES, THIS WILL BE A CRUSADE WE'LL DIE ON!!!

          YoroiStanUnited

... Yokai will be faster, if you're going to act like kids.

          Shishimiyeraki_T

I'll just say it. I'm loving the vibes and all. But I think all of them will be in the Top 10 someday, no need to fight.

EndeavorFan2412          

Oh? Who are you? Also, good opinion, we want that too.

          Shishimiyeraki_T

Just a guy who... Will look forward to seeing these kids be Heroes...

          DekuFanboy001

Hey, pretty good! Hope you don't mind a couple of us, it's normal of them to be competitive over Heroes we sympathize with.

          Shishimiyeraki_T

Cool. I like Deku too my guy. He might be a noob in the business, but he could be a good... Number 1 Hero...

EndeavorFan2412          

OH, COME ON!!!

END OF CHAPTER ONE!!!

Chapter Text

Midoriya Izuku's POV

          "Urgh... Why do I feel like I was put in a meat grinder...?" Midoriya Izuku, Second Year student of U.A Academy, groaned in his mind, as he woke up with some reluctance, considering the pain he feels on his whole body.

          "Pft. That's what happens when your muscles aren't made of steel, and yet you force them to do ludicrous work. We made you go asleep just so we'd be able to heal."

          Izuku looked around, noticing... That he isn't in that street with Gran Torino anymore, but rather...

          The Void? Is he dead?-

          "Nope. I just said you're okay, no need to be panicking.."

          ... Although he ignored it at first, he couldn't ignore the fact he is currently laying on a red-haired woman's lap, felt like she was playing with his mane, and knew damn well she was looking straight into his eyes.

          ... But he also noticed he couldn't... Talk, either. As if he can't even feel if he had a mouth. In fact, he can't really feel anything either so...

          "If what you are thinking about 'Why can't I talk?', it's... A bit complicated to explain when you can't even ask anything-" Izuku stopped with his train of thought, paying more attention on the woman. "-So in short, train a whole lot more and someday you will be able to talk to us, previous users of your Quirk, including Yoichi, who made the Quirk and passed onto us with his will. You, probably being the last user of [One For All], will be able to use all of our Quirks, and we wish for you to use them to make sure All For One, that villain that hurt Yagi, is dead. By Yagi's hands, or your own." She stated.

          ... He will be able to do what with All-Might's Quirk, and get what?

          "Hm... Now, in all honesty, about half of us weren't quite... fond of you. After Yagi Toshinori beating All For One as the 8th user of our mantle, we weren't sure if being passed on was a good idea in any way, shape or form. Originally even, we were planning to just cease from existence with Yagi dying someday, but while you trained for those 10 months a while ago, I managed to change their minds. Also, I'm technically meant to be the Fourth user, but since I'm one of the users who haven't personally met All-For-One, just think of me as the extra user. Wasn't much of a fighter either way, and never used it offensively either, and building up power instead."

          What? That doesn't make any sense...

          "You are a strong kid. Mentally, and physically. Your emotional side, and the whole 'I was bullied since I was four by someone I thought was my friend' story needs some work, but otherwise, we decided your stubbornness could be sharpened into perseverance, your smarts could help you at dealing with All For One's more convoluted plans, and your quick thinking and improvisational skills are also a good bonus. But in all honesty? I find the fact you're Quirkless the most endearing. I'll tell you later but... Know that as useful as the Quirk I'm passing to you is, it wasn't always like that. Giving power to someone powerless and with a good heart? I can tell you that a real Hero will be born from it... Giving someone like me such power always felt... Useless, personally."

          ... He is working on it, but... She shouldn't think of herself as useless...

          "... I hope you'll take my words to heart. As I said, you'll inherit all of our Quirks. I would prefer if you made the names for the Quirks you will obtain on your own, rather than the names of our older Quirks. I was a very active and important doctor back in the day, some of the other users are also public agents, be it as part of the old 'Special-Quirked-Forces' before Pro-Heroes, or they were firefighters or even vigilantes before proper Quirk laws were made and... Well. Living in the whole 'Pre-All-Might-Era' thing. And in the case of two of the very first users? They are legally deemed as Villains due to the laws of the time. I think you can understand that one-too-many coincidental names for very similar Quirks can be a bad choice."

          N-New names!? B-But I suck at naming things!

          The woman sighed, with some... Fatigue...? "And finally... You named your Quirk [Super-Power] back at the registry. It isn't a bad name, even if it's not a good one, so I'd advise to change it a little. But that name alone allows some leeway on how it could be interpreted. If the police, Quirk Counselors, or... The HPSC directly asks about it, try to induce them to discover [Super-Power] is a Stockpiler Quirk of sorts. One that allows the user to grow stronger with time, but took practically more than a decade of energy gathering and 10 months of training until it could be used to some degree, and about two months later, be capable of using it without negative repercussions. Thanks to now finally being able to use it without many drawbacks, you will slowly develop different parts that will make the first 'Super-Quirk' via Singularity, explaining the multiple Quirks part."

          ... Why would she put so much emphasis on HPSC? D-Do they know something he does not...?

          She slowly lifted a finger up. "My Quirk was pretty good at healing people, and could work by using [One-For-All]'s energy without reducing it much, but originally was used by using my lipids to create a healing mist of sorts. In fact, there's so much energy and power now that it must both heal wounds and broken bones, to even energize people now. Or not. I'm not sure how it will grow into being your own version, so... Good luck. You're getting mine, Fifth's and maybe Eighth's Quirks, and slowly more will appear, with Fourth's probably being the next one you will obtain if Eighth's not accessible. Fifth might appear later to properly teach how to use your Quirk, but you could just find on your own as well. Sixth is probably the easist to understand, but it requires focus to use it. Good luck, Izuku. We believe in you... And try getting a girlfriend or two. A partner is really good for a growing young man such as yourself, got it?" The woman boops the young man's nose(?)...

          ... And everything turned black.

          ... Slowly but surely... Izuku opened his eyes.

          And mentally groans with a slight blush in his face. "W-Why did she say g-g-girlfriends? I-It'd be surprising if I could even get one, w-why make it plural...? I-Is it some morbid joke from the dead...?"

          "TYSON CRASH!!!"

          Izuku's thoughts stop momentarily, before he stopped to pay attention to what was going on around him. He quickly took notice of the nearly empty white room he was in, most likely the one of a hospital- and how on the small tv was playing what he thought was one of All-Might's fights... But it was someone else. Someone he could only see on a mirror, specifically.

          An old reporter appeared on screen, while footage of Izuku was playing in the background. "-And as you can see? It appears our future generation is already taking some inspiration on our Old Guard, but makes sure he is different. In the Hosu-Incident, there was about 14 conscious Pro-Heroes on the scene, and there were around 47 that were beaten by the League of Villain's Noumus, weaker than the one in the USJ, but were still very dangerous. Hero-In-Training Deku from U.A High School, with a Quirk called [Super-Power], after having a 5-minute clash with The Hero Killer Stain, rushed to the central plaza of Hosu, and within 20 seconds knocked every Noumu out in the area with some assistance of the Jetstream Hero, Gran Torino. Though Gran Torino did beat quite a few, and so did many of the Pro-Heroes that were around the... 6 to 2 years of experience in the field, Deku successfully took down 64 Noumus after yelling out what we can only assume is his Ultimate move, Tyson Crash. We're not even sure it is an Ultimate Move, because Deku also kept fighting for nearly 34 minutes after that, and by himself beating 104 Noumus in total."

          ... Oh. Oh god, he is on national news and he killed 104 Noumus. W-Well, they weren't alive, but he killed them nonetheless. Beyond a hundred of them. IN HIS THIRD DAY OF INTERNSHIPS. HE IS GOING TO BE KICKED TO NARNIA BY GRAN TORINO-

          "Not only that, but many of the other Interns from U.A Academy. Point-Blank took out 75 Noumus in the south, along with Phantom-Thief beating 58 of them in the north. Recipro-Knight, Tsukuyomi, Chromastone, Weaver-Mantis, Ruler Ax, Shemagika and Indominus all took out Noumus in the 40s, and many of the other students that were in Hosu also didn't sit still when this accident happened. Atomix and Ka-Plamo, for exemple, managed to simply trap a lot of the Noumus onto concrete for the police to arrest, and Amazoo managed to help the Wild, Wild Pussycats in getting the populace out of the city with his many animals."

           "Holy-Fruit had the assistance of Shiva in healing many of the injured at the scene, and Graviraka assisted both Thirteen and Uwabami in rescuing the injured that Holy-Fruit and Shiva were healing, before meeting with Yokai to beat LOV's giant flying Noumu fighting against Ruler Ax. Without their actions, we doubt we'd only have two deaths in the whole accident. One being a Pro-Hero who succumbed to their wounds, and the other being a civilian of the old Hassaikai group, being it's old leader. We thank the brave Heroes for their work, and hope the government respond to our questions, and please, wait until the afternoon for a more detailed assessment of what happened in the entirety of Hosu. Moving onto the weather, it appears we will have a slight snowstorm in the next couple days, caused by a rabid Quirk-Awakening from a child in-"

          Izuku let the video fade into white noise, as he instead fully digests what he just heard.

          "... I beat the c-crap out of one hundred Noumus... But it was seen as fine, because other students also fought with Noumus... We all assisted in beating them, and yet are deemed as the main Heroes of the whole incident... And the public is thanking them for their work...?" He thought, as his face conflicted with his surprised, and blushy face.

          ... He slowly just covered his face in his palms, feeling very embarrassed and not sure what to do.

          Or at least he would've, if there wasn't a very heavy feeling on his right arm. Izuku, noticing only a half of his face can be covered, slowly looked to his right arm.

          Originally, he expected his arm to be in a cast or something, not for it be a pillow to his best-friend.

          "ROOOoonc... Fih-Fih-Fih-Fih-Fih-Fih... ROOOooonc... Fih-Fih-Fih-Fih-Fih-Fih..." The brown-haired girl softly snored against his arm, drooling on it. She had her arms wrapped on his, and noticibly wearing gloves to not make him float or anything.

          Izuku could feel his heart clenching at the sight, considering how FRICKING cute she was. He'd make sure she would never be sad if he is going to be a Hero, in some way or another, as he slowly decides to pet her-

          ... Actually, uh... Why did he feel so much more... Radical with his emotions? H-He nearly woke her up by flexing his arms in determination, but at least she still didn't wake up from him ruffling up her hair a little-

          "Hm... Whuh...?" Ochako rubbed her eyes, as her soft eyes slowly shifted to the shiny emeralds she loved to gaze upon without him noticing... And that she was slightly worried for, considering how he kinda just fell asleep when he was done fighting yesterday night-

          "Oh god, why would you make me fall deeper in love with you?"

          ... Ochako looked at Izuku with wide eyes.

          Izuku slapped his mouth, surprised with what he just mumbled out.

          "... i-... i-in lov-... iN L-LOVE?! WITH ME!?!?" She nearly jumped, as she blushed heavily while pointing at herself.

          "I-I'M SO SORRY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME!! -Even if what I said was not a lie, since you are like. The most beautiful woman I have seen, and the first girl I had talked to in any way, shape or form- BUT I-I DIDN'T MEAN TO OFFEND YOU!!!" He yelled out an apology, even if he's not apologetic.

          "... M-Most... beautiful...?!" She whispered out, both embarrassed of what he said, and gushing about what he is saying to her.

          Izuku covered his face with his arms, extremely embarrassed. "D-Damn you muttering! I knew that'd be my doom someday, b-but I didn't expect it to be with my best-friend, and second crush!"

          "Wait who's the first one?" Ochako asked, with a serious tone.

          Izuku looked at her with a serious face. "Ryuukyuu."

          "Ah, you're good then. I thought it was Miruko 'cause you interned with her on our First years and were into muscles, which isn't exactly what I have, and at least we both crush on the same Pro so that's a plus." Ochako waved him off, happy to see he had the same crush as her... "... W-WAIT, I'M YOUR-"

          "Crush." Ochako looked at him with a surprised reaction, noticing he was looking straight at her in his well known 'Hero-Mode-Midoriya' state. "I don't care about muscles. You're beautiful either way, with your soft and plump curves, your round brown hair, and in general cute aesthetic, makes you incredibly interesting and fun, thanks to your feisty and determined personality clashing with your appearance, making you highly attractive in my eyes. I'm honestly stunned you don't have a boyfriend nor girlfriend, considering how someone would have to be blind to not notice such amazing aspects of your person. And even then, I must admit that if it was for us to be dating, I'd make sure you knew that I love you, and that I love your asteroids."

          ...

          "... Wha...?" Ochako tilted her head in confusion, while Izuku went back to his more to his usual self, noticing that he shouldn't have heard a certain jolt.

          "DAMN IT KAMINARI- I-I meant, uh-... You know what, I shouldn't have taken Kaminari's advice in dating, I-I'm sorry that was so insensitive- I wanna die so bad right now." Izuku said, looking down in shame.

          Well now Ochako felt bad. As if she kicked a puppy, even if all she said was ask 'what'. "H-Hey, don't worry! I wouldn't mind if you tried again!" She assured him, trying to cheer him up.

          Izuku looked a little more embarrassed, but with her approval... He will try his own take on a little one-liner, eventually. "... W-Well... I-If I may... If you don't want to date me, I want to thank you." She was about to say something, but Izuku pressed a finger against her lips. "-Please. Let me me finish."

          ... She slowly nods. "... I want to thank you. E-Ever since our first years, and... The Entrance Exam, I was thinking over what All-Might once said about me becoming... W-Well. His sucessor, as I once told you in our last Christmas, and in all honesty? ... I don't want to be his successor."

          Ochako gasped in surprise. "N-Not that way, of course! I'm grateful for everything he did for me, but... The more I trained and studied more about Heroes... The more I saw how I don't want to be a 'Symbol of Peace' like him. The way he fights is too, um... Damaging for my health to save more people, the advertisement for newer Heroes is something I doubt I can do it, and with how much he hides his own life and keeps everything professional and inspiring with his friends, it's... Lonely. Really lonely. Lonely in a way that... I'm too familiar with, and that I don't want that if I have a choice on the matter." Ochako slowly nodded, wrapping her hands on his.

          Izuku sighed, but keeps up on talking. "But I know my younger self would have never even been capable of simply saying... no to him that I'd probably just self-implode with stress and overworking. N-Not that I'm not overworking sometimes, but the fact I can rationalize this to even realize it's overworking is a step to the right direction, I think... N-... Not really sure if it's Step 2 or 9, but I'll find out soon enough." He joked, getting a chuckle from her. "... And that's why I want to thank you, My Hero." Izuku said, looking into her eyes with a fond expression.

          ... "E-Eh!?" Ochako yelped, surprised at the sudden words. "B-But what does that correlate with me? I-I didn't do anything special..."

          "That's why."

          "Huh?" She tilted her head.

          "That's exactly why I want to thank you, Ochako-Chan. You may not think so, but... You simply being kind to me has been nearly... Therapeutic to me. You being such a protective friend made me realize what a real friend, person, and Hero should act on a daily basis. Whenever you talked back to Kac-... K-Katsuki, I was always mesmerized at how cool and... Powerful you looked like, that I slowly decided to use my first year to make a proper Hero Persona made for me, and me alone... And change myself to the better. Physically, and emotionally start to fix myself from the decade of bullying I suffered back in Middle School-"

          "Decade of what?" Ochako looked ready to probably beat someone up. Or worse.

          "I'll tell you more later. I-It's a can of worms I don't want to touch quite yet." ... Ochako slowly nodded, still a little miffed about only discovering this now and never realizing he was bullied- "Basically... I want to say that even if A-All-Might got me started on my path... You were the one who made me want to continue so far, and want to Go Beyond everyday. You, Tsu-Chan, Shouto-Kun, Mei-Chan and Tenya-Kun, but you were the main reason. You're My Hero in the Academia, Ochako, and I want to thank you for that." Izuku said, looking straight into her eyes.

          Ochako timidly looked away, not wanting to meet his eyes. "... N-No need to thank me over t-that... And I'm happy that I inspired you so much, but... Y-You deserve better than me." Izuku gasped in surprise, but Ochako continued talking. "I-I'd... I would just distract you from getting your dream. You wanted to be a Hero since you were a k-kid and with noble reasons, and I just wanted to be a Hero out of money. I would just dirty your future career-"

          "Then I'll Smash that future you fear so bad, and show you I would never care for that!" Izuku proclaimed, surprising Ochako. "I'm not giving you up in any way, shape or form! If I can't have you if I'll be a Pro-Hero, then I would throw it all away without a second thought if I wouldn't have you encouraging me! I love you Ochako, and if-... I-If I had a star for every time you brightened my day, I'd have more than a mere galaxy... I'd just have a single star in my sky. Because you never failed to make my life shine, like the Sun above us! And even if it gets dark sometimes, I always know you'll be back when it's all said and done, so please... C-can I go on a date with you!?" Izuku yelled out to her, giving her a determined and happy smile with his proposition, holding onto her hands confidently. Even if his words shook with some hesitation.

          Ochako was quiet, and looking at him with a stunned face... Which Izuku couldn't quite translate a proper meaning from it. "... P-Pretty please...? I-" Izuku would've continued, judging that she was probably going to say no.

          However, she did have an answer that was being chosen while her brain was fighting itself on what should be done, but an answer was found when he said please.

          Her answer was to kiss him.

          Straight up, just an inexperienced, and awkwardly messy kiss. No teeth on teeth kind of awkward, but the still exploring how a kiss works for it to even possibly feel good. Slowly wrapping her arms around his neck, while he awkwardly rest his around her waist, but high enough that he doesn't accidentally touch her without permission kind of exploration.

          To her, it felt like she was feeling a whole Universe being made deep in her heart. And like her senses were disorienting -ly- focused only on him, funnily enough.

          To him? It nearly broke his mind and set it ablaze, but it activated the instinctual auto-pilot at the last second, and he awkwardly tried to kiss back. At the very least, he didn't just faint while she kissed him.

          ... But y'know. I dunno how kisses feel, so I'll just say it. These two are teenagers, but were you expecting much for a first kiss when Ochako is... Well. Even a Season 2-inspired Ochako? The kind that was extremely serious in being the First place in the Sports Festival for her parents? Do you think that if she was given the chance she was going to act all 'O-Oh no! I have a c-crush on D-Deku-Kun! I d-don't think I can just confess to h-him then!' like in later seasons rather than just outright kiss him? And that she would be amazing at it? ... And totally not be cringey, in some way? ... Yes?

          Uh... I don't think so. Just food for thought.

          Ochako finally pulled out, taking a big a gulp of air, while Izuku was practically immobile. "... ah." Izuku barely whispered out.

          She was still close to his face, as she looked back into his eyes. "... D-Does... That answer your question...? I-If I really won't uh... b-be a bother for y-your career...?"

          Izuku remained unblinking, and unfocused. "... A-Ah." He slowly brought his hand up to his lips, still feeling her lips upon his, and looked down as he realizes what happened. "I-I kissed a girl. I kissed Ochako. Oh... My... God..." His wide eyes nearly had hearts in them, he was mesmerized by what just happened.

          Ochako looked at him, slightly confused. "D-Did... Didn't you kiss before...? C-Cause I didn't, so s-sorry if it was bad..." She said, looking away in mild embarrassment and awkwardness. "I fucked it up! FUCK, I KNEW I SHOULD'VE JUST PLAYED THE LONG GAME INSTEAD!!!-"

          "... k-kinda...? M-More l-like... a quick p-peck b-because of a d-dare f-from some b-bullies... And t-the girl puk-ked right after... B-Before they launched a bucket full of paint on my h-head... N-Not what you... Just did." Izuku blinked rapidly, bashfully looking at her. "W-Was that what M-Mom said was an Adult K-Kiss...?" Izuku thought in some embarrassment.

          Ochako blinked, before slowly shifting into an... oddly calm look. "Who's the 'kind' ol' gal who'd do that to ya? ... And do you want more of what I just did, hun?" She asked, rather venomously at the first question, but seemed rather smug at her second question.

          "... C-Can I have m-more k-... K-Kisses? And can I t-talk who that girl was l-later? I kinda would p-prefer if I just forget her and other bullies, y'know...?"

          Ochako nodded slowly, rubbing his face with her gloved hand, before leaning closer to him. "Of course, Dek-... Izukkun. Can I call you that? I know it's kinda childish, but... I'm kinda jealous Bakugou-Kun always had a nickname, and he never appreciated it, yet you continued to call him that..." She said, with a hint of jealousy in her voice.

          Izuku seemed a bit surprised... But looked happier at her question. "Of course... Occhan." He whispered to her-

          "-In short, we will allow the Second Years and Third Years of U.A from the Hero Courses to get Hero Licenses."

          ... Well ain't that a way to ruin the mood?

          Izuku and Ochako slowly looked to the TV in the room seeing the President of the HPSC and Prime Minister in a assembly, with hundreds of reporters on the scene.

          The old woman pulled her mic closely, while many people loudly asked her questions. "-Considering how much they trained since their First Year, to being attacked at the USJ at the start of their Second Year, these 16 Year-Old students proved that they could be amazing Heroes in the future, and that even in different classes they can work together quite well... But they also proved being incredible now. We from the HPSC decided to let them go get their own Pro-Hero Licenses if they pass our test. It will be the same test any of our Pro-Heroes go through rather than the usual Hero-In-Training test, so if they all can pass at least one of the three tests -Rescue, Combat or Investigation-, then we will give them a small agency for them to work on Patrols while giving a break from school to assert their current skill level, but still be allowed to intern under other Heroes. We will prepare the test, and we will see if they can succeed at it. If the students of Class 2-A and 2-B at U.A can do it, we will allow other Second and Third years students of other schools to do the test, and if those students can do it as well, we will give them licenses as well. We might even let some recordings of their tests on our official HeroTube channel as well, so look up to that. That is all I have to say." The president then got up, and slowly walked away from the assembly.

          ... "Oh." Both teenagers reacted, seeing that they apparently were going to have a test soon, and that it might allow them to be Heroes way sooner than they expected.

          "... Want to continue kissing before rationalizing what just happened, and talk with the others?"

          Izuku timidly looked away... Before nodding. "I-If you want to-"

          Izuku once again couldn't even finish talking, and Ochako went ahead and locked lips with him once more.

          ... Not that he minded at all.

          "... Chocolate..." He could at least feel some of the taste on her lips.

EXTRA

          ... "Well damn. Didn't think Browny would just outright kiss Greeny. Not that I'm that surprised, he did say the cheesiest, and yet oddly sweetest words I ever heard." Jirou commented, as 2-A stood outside Izuku's room, and also watching the conference on their own TV.

          The culprit behind the camera footage of the two, uh... Intimately learning how to kiss in practice, nodded at Jirou. "I-I... Must admit. Other than Kaminari-Kun's weird advice, he had quite a way with his words. Having only one star because she never fails to make her happy is such a cute line!" Momo agrees.

          Everyone else was kinda... Stunned. All except two student.

          "... Tch. Good for the nerd. NOW TURN THE DAMN THING OFF, I DON'T WANNA SEE THEM KISSING AGAIN!!!" He asked the two girls.

          "Kero. Don't. I wanna see more." ... The three slowly turned to see Tsuyu intently looking at the screen. "... Wonder how his thighs would feel while choking me. And her arms too, she could fold me like an omelette if she wanted to." 

          ... The three turned it off either way. "... Meanies. Kero."
