Heroes of Down Under, chapter 1: Prologue
Quirks. Genetically inherited superpowers that as of late 80% of the worlds population possess. Because of these powers the idea of super heroes that we all had once dreamed of soon became a reality. In this day and age most if not all of the top ranked Pro Heroes such as the retired Gran Torino and the world famous All Might have come from U.A High however there are plenty of people from across the world that have never attained U.A and yet they are more then capable of standing alongside some of the worlds greatest heroes...
A bush fire had spread all the way to a small town as fire fighters are doing there best to fight it back, the people are evacuating but some just aren't fast enough and are trapped in there homes or in the middle of a ring of fire as the flames came closer. Heroes of sorts arrive using there Quirks to combat the flames and limit casualties but it still isn't enough. Suddenly the world itself seemed to stop as two figures had arrived, fire fighters, civilians heck the other Heroes just turned towards them in aw as they charged towards the flames.
In Australia two heroes in particular stood above others. The High-Jumping Hero, King Kanga...
The larger of the two shot through the air like a missile, he was incredibly tall and muscular and wore a brown/tan body suit with white lines that covered the majority of his body. A pair of red grappling gloves fitted snuggly around his hands, a strange cross between a fanny pack and a utility belt was wrapped around his waist and a pair of specialised armoured brown boots that somewhat resembled the feet of a kangaroo covered his feet. He wore a brown mask with a pair of kangaroo like ears on the side and large angular black shapes where the eyes should be with eye holes in the centre revealing his bright green eyes, the mask doesn't cover his mouth revealing his lightly tanned skin, chiseled jawline, brown beard and the confident grin on his face as he leapt into raging bushfire.
and the Rapid Emulation Hero, Emu-Later.
Dashing past King Kanga was a shorter but leaner individual, much like his taller counterpart he too wore a bodysuit except it was primarily black and grey. His arms and legs were covered in black armoured gauntlets and boots that resembled the talons of an emu, he had a relatively bland black chest plate with a stylised feather at the front and a feathery scarf hang from his neck. His eyes were covered in a pair of orange tinted goggles while a dark grey beak like mouth guard covered his mouth, his jet short black hair was exposed to the world flickering in the wind like his scarf as he ran towards the flames.
Theses two Pro Heroes have an ongoing rivalry for the title of Australias Top Hero and yet they share the title of the Shield Of Australia since both have often set aside there differences and worked together to stop great disasters, defeat dangerous villains or save countless lives in the past. In a way they are the shield of justice that protects the people of Australia from harm.
King Kanga leapt out of the fire while carrying a young boy just as Emu-Later had placed an injured women a good distance away from the flames before dashing back in, each time they came back out they saved more and more lives before heading straight back in without any hesitation while fire fighters and other heroes battled the blazing inferno.
They are indeed some of the greatest heroes in the world and the greatest in all of Australia but as time goes by the day they might one day retire draws ever closer...
King Kanga wipes some blood off of his chin as he raises his fist in defiance to a large Villain with a rhino like Quirk, putting himself between the villain and the family behind him.
Soon it'll be up to the next generation of heroes to pick up there mantle as the Shield of Australia...
A young boy and his friends were playing around with action figures and playing hero and villain. Soon that young boy was replaced by a man in red fighting a bunch of mechanised koalas.
But till then...
A flyer fluttered across the city of Canberra with a picture of a cartoony version of King Kanga stating that Wallaby Highs Hero Course is starting soon.
They'll have to learn what it means to be heroes first!
Countless students from across Australia can be seen either training there bodies/Quirks or studying intensely.
And make the most of what they can in the here and now!
"To all you who wish to enrol in Wallaby High," King Kanga said, hoping to inspire the countless students before him. "Bonza luck 'n' seize the day, Carpe Diem!",
Welcome mates to your Hero Academy!

Transcode: Hello fanfiction! I'm back after so many...days? Months? Years? Ah whatever the point is that I'm back and inspired as all heck to snap out of my writers block and once again write fanfiction or to be more specific my brand new and very first My Hero Academia fanfic! Now the reason why I made it was simple few to no people have made stories set around other Hero Academies or countries, I mean not every character has to go to U.A and for it to be the best in the world implies there could be dozens or even hundreds of other Hero Academies that don't get any spot light and if 80% of the population has superpowers then that means there are potentially thousands of Heroes and Villains all across the planet of all nationalities we haven't even seen yet! That's where this story comes in, you see I decided to make the very first My Hero Academia Fanfic that focuses on the tale of heroes from Australia! Why Australia you ask? My answer is why not? I live in Australia so I know quite a bit about the setting and I can tell you it's a wonderful, diverse and admittedly dangerous place with the bush fires, venomous creatures and what not...plus aside from Captain Boomerang, Junkrat and Arrows version of Deathstroke I noticed that Australia has very few superheroes/supervillains so this story should make up for the Land Down Unders lack of superhuman individuals. Obviously since this is set in a setting where no canon characters(that I know of) have ever been before I'm going to need OC's to fill in the space for Heroes, Villains, Teachers, Students and even Vigilantes and considering how flexible the My Hero Academia Universe is pretty much anything could work, I have already created some of my own OC's for this such as King Kanga and Emu-Later but I'm willing to take some made by you guys as well. Just fill out the form below and send it to me via PM.

Notes on Wallaby High:
Like all Australian High Schools students learn from year 7 to year 12 however Wallaby High is split into to two halves, the junior/civilian school that has normal teachers and is pretty much like any other school on the planet and the senior/hero school that has Pro Heroes or retired Heroes as teachers and is similar to what most of you would expect a Hero Academy would be like. The schools motto is Carpe Diem a latin phrase meaning Seize the Day.
Year 7 to 9 are considered junior students and learn normal civilian subjects like at any other high school with the occasional Hero class thrown in once or twice to better prepare them for whatever course they chose once they become senior students.
Year 10 to 12 are considered senior students and learn what every Hero Academy teaches depending on the course they've selected. Once a student reaches year 10 they get to chose from 4 different courses or as U.A calls them Departments, the Hero Course, General Education Course, Support Course and finally the Management Course. Each course is pretty much exactly the same as there Department counterparts in U.A and the Hero Course is the hardest to enter. Students will have to pass both a written exam and a physical exam in order to enter and those who fail depending on the circumstances either get the option to join a different course, are held back a year or are out right kicked out of the school. The start of Year 10 is also around the time several transfer students from around Australia or even from other countries decide to enrol into Wallaby High most of them trying to join the Hero Course.
Transcode: Now with that aside I hope you enjoyed this introductory chapter and if you did favourite and maybe even follow the story! Leave a review about your thoughts of the chapter and remember no matter what you do you always should give it your all and seize the day! Carpe Diem!
