The next day of class was clearly going to test my abilities and personality. We received our uniforms, mine being probably he least flashiest of them all, and headed over to Grounds B where All Might was.

In the meantime, Bakugo decided to pick on my hero uniform. It is mostly navy black with two white stripes that went around by abdomen. I didn't exactly give the school much direction since I don't know what I want my hero look to be. I didn't want to standout.

I ignored Bakugo but I caught a glance from Todoroki. He might be as quiet as I am between all of our classmates.

All Might gives us a little chat about what it takes to be a hero before going into the task at hand. He is going to split us up into teams of two in which two teams, the villains and the heroes, will face off against each other.

Midoriya is teamed up with Uraraka. Meanwhile, I am teamed up with Todoroki and I'm not sure how I feel about it, but at least I have a good partner. My team will be going up against Rikido Sato and Mezo Shoji.

The first match up is Midoriya/Urarakaup against Tenya Iida and Bakugo.

So much for saving the best for last.

Meanwhile, Todoroki and I were to due after them, which will be a tough task to follow.

It was clear in watching Midoriya and Bakugo that they are both strategic and intelligent. It surprised me watching them utilize their quirks in smart ways, even though Midoriya was breaking his body.

In the end it was explosive but Midoriya baited Bakugo into going toe-to-toe which allowed Midoriya to focus on the task at hand. He didn't have to beat Bakugo in a fight, he just needed to complete the objective. He used his quirk to create a whirlwind directly above him allowing Uraraka to get past Iida and onto the weapon.

Bakugo got mad at Midoriya, who's arm is broken. He picked him up by his shirt and shouted, "You bastard. You were supposed to hit me with everything you got!"

Midoriya seemed to be too hurt and tired to respond. It looked like he mouthed something but we couldn't hear what he said. Bakugo tossed him to the ground and let out a scream.

I shook my head and muttered, "He really seems like a villain."

Todoroki, who was standing next to me, agreed. "Indeed, but Midoriya sticks up for him."

"I guess I'll have to trust him. For now."

Todoroki and I shared a glance of understanding.

Meanwhile, All Might congratulates Midoriya and Uraraka as they came out of the test area. I noticed something different with him due to my quirk. During the fight his body's girth, specifically in his arms were about 12.5% more expanded. His right arm is broke so it's no use comparing it to his battle state, but his left arm isn't. His quirk allowed him to bulk up instantly as if it funneled his power there. What an interesting quirk.

I spot All Might look over at Midoriya as if he's concerned. He could've stopped the fight but he didn't and now he's concerned. Can't tell if that makes him a good or bad teacher, but I respect it nonetheless.

It was time for the next two teams to take their places. Todoroki and I were the heroes. Our strategy was simple. We agreed it would benefit the other team if Sato was guarding the rocket. it would require Todoroki to focus his ice attack in a more tame way. Shoji would present a more challenged fight in a corridor because of his ability to create multiple arms. He's also very astute. In the end it would a battle of strength with Sato guarding.

However, that is not what happened. Todoroki and I walked through a large corridor and Sato appeared.

"That's a mistake," Todoroki said placing his hand up.

I put my hand on his arm and pushed it slightly down as I walk up. "Give me 30 seconds before you turn this place into the north pole."

"Are you crazy? You don't have the strength to over power him."

"Well thank god he can't break my bones then," I say with a smirk.

Until now I haven't stood out. It's been all about Todoroki, Midoriya and Bakugo. With that comes attention from our teachers and that includes All Might, who is here. I may not want to stand out in general but I do want All Might to notice me. I know my classmates talk about me behind my back about how quiet and mysterious I am. This will only further that talk, but I'm okay with that. I'm here to be a hero and a little attention from All Might will help.

I walk towards Sato, who's body has expanded by about 23.18%. He's had quite a bit of sugar to power himself up. I've never been punched by someone this strong, so I'll get to see how my body holds up to an attack.

Sato reaches back and sends his fist flying towards me. As I brace myself for impact I take notice how he places his feet and contorts his body. I can see that his punch will hit me in my right forearm, just below my UCL.

My arm absorbs the punch, but it hurts. The punch also sends me back a few feet but I shake it off and walk towards him again.

Sato looked confused but he reaches back again. As he contorted his body to send his upper body forward to punch me, I quickly side-step causing him to move his eyes. This confuses his feet causing him to react off balance. I then land a quick punch to his ribcage before grabbing his arm and slamming him into the wall which he breaks through.

My punch allowed me to see how much his body can withstand and how strong I am. I realize I'm not that strong to hurt him that much. He'll be bruised but it's likely I didn't break a rib. He gets up and comes back at me with the same attack. The result ends the same as well. He crashes through the opposite wall and huffs when he gets up.

His next attack is different. He's just charging me but I don't know what he is going to do and how exactly his body is going to move. Is he going to grab and tackle me or grab and slam me down? Or some completely different option.

He goes for the grab as I stand in front of him. I let him pick me up and as I hear Todoroki yell at me, I twitch my body and grab Sato's right arm. I contort myself and place my knee behind his head. With all of the unsettling movement, Sato falls down face first causing my knee to slam into his head.

"Ice him now!" I yell at Todoroki who quickly ices the floor and Sato below me.

That's one down and one to go.

Todoroki shot me a look and said, "That was unexpected."

"Good,' I say with a chuckle. "With all due respect to you, I can't let you hog all of the glory here today."

"Understood, but I get Shoji."

With a smile I say, "Be my guest."

We enter the large room where Shoji is guarding the missile. He wasn't expecting both of us here, "Sato couldn't take one of you out?"

Todoroki to a step forward and pointed his thumb at me "Mystery boy here took care of him."

As Shoji and I look at each other I decide to walk away from Todoroki to the other side of the room. I'm curious if Shoji will take the bait, but he doesn't. Todoroki then takes a few steps forward and says, "There's no point, Shoji. If I can't get by you, he will." Todoroki looks at me as if he was telling me to take a couple steps up so I do. It's surprising how compatible we are.

Todoroki is so calm. His breathing hasn't sped up or slowed down at all. Meanwhile, Shoji's has. I decide to take a quick few steps forward which distracts him enough for Todoroki to grab and freeze him.

Todoroki touches the rocket and soon after All Might come up on the loudspeaker and congratulates us. As we exit the test facility we hear some murmuring from some of the students. Iida and Uraraka come up to me and say that I was impressive.

"I didn't know you had such a fantastic fighting technique. It was so cool," Uraraka said.

"Exemplary," Iida added.

"It was nothing. I got a little lucky," I respond back.

All Might interrupted, "Nonsense my boy. That was skill. I know skill when I see it. Don't sell yourself short." His thumbs up makes me smile.

I could only mutter a weak, "Thanks," even though my goal had been fulfilled here.

"Psh, Todoroki could've handled that quicker. You should've let him handle Sato," a dismissive and obnoxious Bakugo said.

I shrugged, "Just like you should've handled Deku?"

That pissed off Bakugo but I enjoyed watching him squirm and some of our classmates chuckle. Bakugo's ego and pride is too massive and I'm not scared to knock him down a peg or two.

Before he could say anything, Todoroki interjected. "It's not about me. He wanted a chance to prove himself during this test, which he deserved."

Bakugo scoffed but didn't say anything. Before I could thank Todoroki for defending me, someone tapped my shoulder. Sato appeared in front of me as I turned around. He seemed embarrassed. "Um good job back there. I didn't think you could do that."

"You are strong, Sato. Very strong, but brute strength isn't everything."

Sato looked down, disappointed himself. "I know."

"Good, then you have nothing to be ashamed about. We're all learning here, right? None of us are perfect."

"Yes!," Iida exclaimed. "Wise words from the, uh, mystery kid here."

"It's Kai," I say anxiously.

"Ah right, Kai. Wise words from him indeed. We should all heed that and become better students," he exclaims with his arm pointed in the air.

This is our class representative. I didn't vote for him, but his enthusiasm is refreshing even if it's a bit much.

When classes ended I made an effort to find Todoroki. When I did I thanked him for giving me a chance. He looked at me, nodding, and said, "I meant what I said. You deserved it. But I also allowed you to do what you did so I could see more of your quirk and capabilities."

"I get that. Either way, I'm grateful."

"You really are a mystery. Nobody knows who you are. They didn't even know your name until today."

I sighed. "Yeah I know. You're a mystery too if I say so myself."

His glance at me was different. It betrayed the reserved personality I have taken note of in such a short time.

"My father is Endeavor," he said plainly. He didn't say anything else nor did it seem like he had anything to say. His words said a lot even though he didn't.

"I don't know who my father is...or was," my voice trail off as I look away.

"I'm sorry," he said as he walked away from me. I couldn't tell what his mood was because it always seems the same. I don't think it went poorly.

I'm just glad he didn't ask about my mother.

A/N: So in putting out my 1st chapter I totally forgot how this changes some of the formatting when I copy and paste the text. So this led to the chapter looking like a hot mess, especially towards the end. I did fix that on Tuesday and I hope to not make that mistake again. Anyways, I have no clue what my upload schedule will be. I've written 13 chapters so far, but this is just the 2nd one I'm uploading. I will stick to 1 per week at least. However, if you read my previous fic you would know I couldn't help but upload several times a week. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this. Chapter 3 should be uploaded on Sunday.
