The night that Izuku go this letter, All Might had contacted him. Izuku quickly sprinted to the beach. "ALL MIGHT!" he shouted, tears in his eyes. All Might clenched his teeth, blood pouring out. Izuku didn't notice. "All Might?!" he asked. Izuku was confused at that. And then he heard others. "All Might?! Where?!"

"Repeat after me; I'm sorry, I had the wrong person" he hissed to Izuku. He quickly realised why he said that. "W-wait! I had the wrong person!" he shouted. He ignored the depressed mutterings. They both let out a sigh. "So, congrats on passing" he told Izuku.

"Th-thank you!" Izuku stuttered out.

"By the way, I didn't tell the school about our connection. After all, you'd probably be the first one to call that cheating."

"Thanks for your concern!" Izuku said. "I was surprised that you'd be teaching at UA though. After all, your HQ is-"

"And stop right there." All Might sighed. Watching his heir ramble like that always seemed to make his hair stand on end. "I was offered the job while I was searching for a successor. My original plan was to find one among the students." Izuku nodded. That made sense. "M-my body broke after only one use of One For All. I can't control it." All Might turned to his heir. "It can't be helped. You can't just learn like that." Izuku understood. "Right now, it's either all or nothing. However, you should be able to eventually control it so you can use what your body can handle." He turned to his muscled form, crushing a few gas canisters. "LIKE THIS!"

"Hey it is All Might!" someone shouted. All Might paused. "TIME TO RUN!" he shouted. Izuku followed him, using his Quirk to keep up.

LE TIMESKIP

When classes started Izuku barely managed to get out the door on time. His mother was really worried about him, constantly double checking his pack. His father had called over speaker as well, helping him pack by listing off what he was missing. He had that kind of memory. However, he couldn't focus on that right now. "1-A… 1-A… where is it?" he asked. "This place is so big!" and then he saw the door leading to his class. "And so is the door… is it for students with enlarging Quirks?" He asked. "Beyond this door are the elite of the hero exam..." He had a picture of the bossy boy glaring and of a cowering Kaachan. He shook his head. "Hopefully I'm not in the class with scary people." he said, before opening the door. "Get your feet off the desk!" There was the bossy kid. "Eh? What was that?" And there was Kaachan. "It's disrespectful to the makers of the desk and of the students who have sat here before!"

"NOPE! Where the hell did you come from asshole?" The explosive blond sneered. "I came from Somei Academy! My name is Tenya Iida!" the glasses-wearing boy said, fist pounding his chest. "Oh, you're an elite? It'll be fun watching you get kicked into the dirt!"

"Kicked into the dirt?! Do you really intend to become a hero!?" Then the now-named Iida turned to look at him. "It's you…" he muttered. Now everyone else was staring at him. "OH! Uhh, g-good morning!" Izuku stuttered. "Good morning!" Iida shouted. "I am from Somei Academy! My name is-"

"I already heard!" Izuku said, still quite flustered at the attention. "I'm Izuku Midoriya. It's nice to meet you Iida" he said, embarrassed. "You realized that there was something more to the practical exam, didn't you?" Iida asked. "Huh?" He asked. "I had no idea, and I misjudged you!" he shouted. "I'd hate to admit it, but you are clearly better than I!" Izuku heard Kaachan mutter "Damned right he is."

"S-sorry, but I didn't realize anything." Izuku deadpanned. "Oh hey! It's you!" Izuku turned around and saw a familiar face. 'I-it's that nice girl! S-she looks great in her uniform!' he thought to himself, unable to keep his eyes from wandering a little. He remembered something his father had said at that moment. 'Good looks are nice, but that's only the tip of the iceberg! When choosing a girlfriend, you must look at their intelligence, kindness, and moral standard! Those are the big three!' He stopped zoning out when she was chanting "Break! Break! Break!"

"W-well, it was thanks to you going to speak to him directly that got me the points that I needed!" "Huh? How did you know about that?" she asked. Bakugou, meanwhile, was thinking about something.

FLASHBACK - Middle School

"So it seems like we have two students going to UA! For you Midoriya, this is nothing short of a miracle!" their Quirk counselor said. "Katsuki, you may go." He left but then put an ear to the door. He wished he hadn't. "You Quirkless freak! How did you cheat?!"

"I- I didn't cheat!" Izuku sobbed. "Katsuki was supposed to be the first student from this school to be accepted into UA! And now you ruined the dreams of a future hero!" He winced at the sound of a fist hitting flesh. "Sensei, someone told me that I could become a hero! I could do it with my own effort! That's why I'm going!" He backed away from the door just as his friend pushed it open, his hand holding his cheek. Katsuki glared at the counselor, before flipping him the bird.

FLASHBACK END

He snarled at the fucking Quack. 'And then he disappeared a few days later. The trail went cold. If I didn't know better I'd think Izuku did it, but the during time period in which he vanished Izuku and I were playing video games' Meanwhile, the round faced girl was still continuing to talk. "I wonder if today will be more than just the orientation? Maybe we'll get to meet our teacher!" "Go somewhere else if you want to play at being friends." A tired voice said.

Izuku looked towards the sound and saw what he first thought was a caterpillar. And then he saw the face. It looked messy. The kind girl turned, as well is Iida. "This is the hero course." The zipper of the sleeping bag (Izuku's brain finally realized what it was over his shock) went down, and they saw a pair of hands holding a juice box. With a powerful slurp, the man sucked it dry. 'Someone's here!' he thought to himself. Unknown to him Iida and the round-faced girl thought the same thing.

The man in the sleeping bag managed to lift himself up to a standing position while still in the sleeping bag (how he did so was beyond Izuku). "It took you eight seconds to quiet down. Time is limited. You're not rational enough." Izuku noticed that the man smelled strongly of cats. In his opinion, he looked like a homeless person. 'He must be a teacher. That must mean he's a pro hero.' Izuku thought to himself. 'Besides, UA's security would be able to stop a predator'. "I'm Shota Aizawa, your homeroom teacher." he droned. "It's nice to meet you." 'Homeroom?!' Izuku thought to himself. The teacher grabbed what looked like a uniform from his sleeping bag. "I know it's kind of rushed, but put these on and head out into the field."

"Huh?" most of the class said simultaneously

"A Quirk assessment test!?" the entire class of 1-A shouted at the same time. "What about the entrance ceremony or orientation?" the nice girl asked. "If you're going to be a hero, you don't have time for such leisurely events." Their teacher said. "There are very few restrictions on the teachers here. Besides, you've all been doing this since middle school right?" Sounds of agreement followed. "You weren't allowed to use your Quirks during those. Averages of those tests are still used here. It's irrational, and most likely due to the Ministry of Education procrastinating. Bakugou, you were the top of the practical exam. How far could you throw a softball in middle school?"

"67 meters" he respectfully said. "Try throwing one using your Quirk." the teacher monotoned. He walked up into a circle at the beginning. "You may do whatever you want as long as you stay in the circle." Aizawa flatly stated. "DIE!" Izuku's childhood friend shouted. 'Die? That's Kaachan.' Izuku thought as they watched him use an explosive blast to send the ball flying. "Know your own maximum first. That's the most rational way to form the foundations of a hero." He held up a device that read the distance the ball went. It read 705.2 meters.

"WOAH!" the entire class shouted. Various things were said. One of the girls (who had pink skin and a set of horns) said "This looks fun!" That caught their teacher's attention. "'This looks fun?' huh?" Izuku figured something bad was about to happen. "You have three years to become a hero. Do you think that you'll have an attitude like that the whole time?" A positively evil grin spit the teacher's face. "All right then. Whoever gets the last overall in all eight tests gets expelled." A panicked yell rang out through the class. 'Expulsion for the one in last place?! This is bad… I can only use One For All at 100% or 0%. I'll have to use my Quirk, and who knows what'll happen!.' "We're free to do what we want as teachers, as I've mentioned." Aizawa said, holding his hair up. "Welcome to UA's hero course!"

"Last place will be expelled?! But it's only the first day… no… any expulsion for getting last would be too cruel!" The nice girl said. "Natural disasters, big accidents, and selfish villains. Each of these can end the career or the life of a hero. Now, the real tests begin."

The first test was a 50 meter dash. Iida got 3.04 seconds due to the fact that his Quirk was built for speed. He was by far one of the fastest. Izuku managed to get 4.67 seconds due to his Quirk. Katsuki got 4.13 seconds. 'At the very least I can outrun Izuku. But his Quirk… is it evolving?' he thought to himself.

The second test was grip. Izuku remembered All Might's words on All For One, and his own personal analogy. However, he knew that he had a good Quirk for this sort of thing, so he should use that. It didn't break his body. He got 300 kg.

The third test was a standing long jump. After his childhood friend used his explosions to fly, Izuku decided to force his Quirk down into his muscles. When he started feeling pain her released them. He got a pretty good score.

The fourth test was repeated side steps. No one could compete with the guy with the bouncy balls for hair.

And then came the ball throw. The nice girl (who's name was apparently Uraraka Ochaco) threw her ball before him. She used her Quirk and let it fly. After about four minutes, Aizawa held up the screen. It had an infinity symbol. Izuku started to panic. 'Everyone's had an amazing score at least once! I've been in the top, sure, but not the best at any! It's now or never!' "It doesn't look good for Midoriya right now" Iida said. "Hey watch it! He's still doing great!" Katsuki shouted.

"Then why hasn't he done the thing he did with the giant robot!?" 'So that's it…' their teacher thought. Meanwhile Izuku was running through all of the compliments about his future. They came from All Might, his mother, and his father. 'I'll definitely become a hero!' he mentally screamed, One For All building up. He didn't notice his teacher's eyes glowing red. He did notice the fact that both One For All and his other Quirk went dead. Izuku felt physically weak. It was like he would pass out! And then the ball landed. 'Only 46 meters?!' he thought, mentally calculating the distance. And then a robotic voice confirmed it. 'W-what happened!?' he thought to himself. "I was definitely trying to use it…" he said to himself. "I erased your Quirk." his teacher droned. "The entrance exam is irrational. After all, a kid like you got in." Izuku paled, and then he saw something. "T-those goggles! I see! You're Eraserhead, an Underground Hero!" Underground heroes didn't get paid. His father had called them the real heroes. He had said that the Pro heroes may be overrated besides All Might, but the Underground ones, those that voluntarily refused payment or fame, were the true heroes. "I can tell you can't control your Quirk" the underground hero said. "Do you intend to become incapacitated every time you try to save someone?"

"T- that's not my intention-" he was then grabbed by the scarfs that the underground hero wore, and they pulled him in. "Whatever your intention, I'm saying that's what everyone around you will be forced to do." Izuku gasped, his sight flickering in and out. "There was once an oppressively happy hero who saved over a thousand people single handedly. You'd break your body when trying to save one." By now, his vision was almost gone. "With your power, you can't become a hero." He then mercifully closed his eyes and let him go. Izuku collapsed to the ground, panting. "I've returned your Quirk. I'll give you another chance at the ball throw. Now get it over with." The other students started to mutter to themselves as Izuku hauled himself to his feet and got into the circle. "What should I do?" he said to himself. 'Will he prepare for an honorable defeat here or will he be intimidated into last place?' Eraserhead thought to himself as he applied eye droplets. 'Either way, he has no potential.'

Izuku wound up his arm. 'It's just like he said! If I keep breaking my body then I have zero chance of being a hero!' "SMASH!" he shouted, forcing both his Quirk and One For All into his index finger. The ball flew incredibly high, and eventually came to a stop. The screen read 7,053 meters. 'That's over seven kilometers! What did he do?!' Eraserhead thought to himself. "Sensei…" Izuku ground out. He clenched his hand, showing that only one of his fingers was broken. "I can still move!"

"This kid…" Eraserhead chuckled.
