U.A. Academy

After the testing examinations had come to a close, and the test takers were all leaving the perimeter of U.A. Academy, Nezu, Aizawa, and Toshinori all went back to the monitoring room to regroup with the other U.A. staff and explained the situation regarding the mysterious brown haired boy who was actually Midoriya using his chameleon's shapeshifting abilities to take the appearance of the brown haired boy. They did however, not mention what Midoriya had told them about the significance of that individual who they assumed to be Tsunayoshi Sawada and figured it would be best that if it stay secret among those who knew.

The teachers at first were flabbergasted at the fact that the reason that Midoriya infiltrated a U.A. testing examination was because of a premonition that the zero-pointer used in that examination was going to serious injury the participants. However, most of the teachers then began to voice their concerns when they remembered that prior to the incident that Midoriya did approach several of them about his concerns with the zero pointer that was commissioned to be used in Battle Center B.

"Young Midoriya did come to me prior to the exam expressing his concerns about the examination being held in Battle Center B, but I merely told him that the safety precautions that were built into the testing robots should have prevented any major injuries to befall the test takers, and that those who experienced injuries would be healed by Recovery Girl." Ectoplasm stated.

"Midoirya came up to me as well telling me that he felt something bad was going to happen in Battle Center B, even though he was not sure what was going to happen, he just said that he believed it would involve the zero-pointer robot. But I told him that everything was going to be fine and that nothing too dangerous or should I say life threatening has happened during these examinations that would cause any lasting repercussions on the children." Thirteen spoke

"Same here, Midoriya had come up to me worried about the battle simulation and I had told him along the lines of what you two just said that there was nothing to worry about. I know in previous examinations there had been cases such as the brown-haired girl who were trapped underneath rubble, or suffered something as bad as a broken arm, but the artificial intelligence of the robots takes into account the physical data of the participants in the examination as well as the current surroundings to ensure that nothing truly life threatening occurs to the participants. As well as having someone like Recovery Girl among U.A.'s staff prevents any long last effects on those who do suffer injuries." Snipe stated feeling confident in his declaration.

The teachers one by one began to share their interactions with Midroiya on the subject, until Power Loader came into the room, understanding the situation and confusion based on what he was hearing from the others as he spoke up gathering their attention.

"When I was giving Midoriya a tour of the support department, showing him the battle robots that would be used for today's examinations he had told me that the zero pointer that would be used for Battle Area B was giving him a bad feeling." Power Loader states causing the other heroes to feel disturbed by Midoriya's infatuation with that one zero pointer.

"After Midoriya left I did a double check on all the zero pointers systems and found nothing out of the ordinary, and all emergency and safety apparatuses were operational and untouched. But when I heard from Nezu about how the brown-haired boy who had decimated the robot was none other than Midoriya my reaction was one of disbelief" Power Loader states receiving nods from the other heroes agreeing with him.

"After the examinations were over, I along with several of my associates had reviewed the footage of the testing location, as well as examined the wreckage of the city and the destroyed zero pointer and had made a shocking discovery about what had transpired." Power Loader says

"What do you mean?" Aizawa replies in a groggy tone.

Power Loader continues "It turns out that while there was nothing wrong with the zero-pointer internal or externally, there was another issue that had been neglected to take into account, and if Midoriya hadn't stopped that robot, the brown haired girl who was trapped near the zero-pointer and quite possibly the other test takers near the zero pointer would have been seriously injured or even worse."

"Well let's hear it Power Loader, don't keep us in suspense" Toshinori replied waiting with anticipation.

Power Loader walks toward the monitors and types away at the control console until the screens display an image of the zero-pointer used in Battle Center B set on pause. The image of it being half a minute before it would meet its inevitable demise at the hands of Midoriya.

Power Loader presses play as the monitors show the zero pointer continue its controlled rampage as it turns its attention on Uraraka struggling to free herself from the rubble. The robot moves forward heading towards her location when it then raises one of its arms high into the air as it proceeds to rapidly descend right on top of her.

"Now notice that in this clip it appears as if the zero-pointer is going to press its arm on top of her when the protocols of the zero pointer would have instructed the robot to moves its arm 30 degrees to the left 3 seconds before collision with the ground giving the appearance of a rampaging robot to the other test takers but ensuring that the girl would not be harmed." Power Loader says

The clip continues showing Midoriya disguised as Tsuna catapulting himself towards the zero-pointer stomach with a sound breaking punch that sends the robot flying out of the city and into the dome wall as if he was paying homage to one of All Might's smash attacks.

"I must have viewed this clip at least a hundred times, but to think that our little green superstar could unleash a punch on All Might's level fills me with a mix of both awe and terror. If he's capable of something like this after a few short months of awakening to his quirk, what will his power reach by the end of his first year at U.A." Present Mic states in a low tone receiving nods of agreement from a few other heroes.

"Yes, while Midoriya's display of power from this clip is quite impressive to say the least, it still doesn't explain how Midoriya was right in his decision of stopping the zero-pointer." Midnight states hoping for more clarification.

"I was just getting to that Midnight, and while I mentioned that there was nothing wrong with the zero pointer itself, there was something wrong with the terrain the zero pointer was walking on." As Power loader pulls up the image of the zero pointer a few seconds from his attack from the back side of the robot where he then begins to plays the clip in slow motion showing that just as the zero pointer was moving around it then moves one of its legs to a spot on the road where it then begins to bends its knee in an unusually fashion causing to robot to lean forward and moves its arm towards Ochaco. The heroes then begin to realize what had transpired.

"Wait are you telling me that the reason for this mishap was because the zero pointer just slipped on the road. How! How did this happen!" exclaimed one of the heroes.

"I can explain that" Power Loader states showing a clip of test takers running for their lives "While going through the footage I discovered that one of the participants who had a quirk that allowed her to reduce the friction on surfaces for a short time, used it to reduce the friction on the road causing it to have a surface similar to that of ice to slide on the surface of the road to get away from the massive robot. This move of hers however resulted in the zero pointer to slip on one of its legs causing it to extend its hand in an attempt to steady itself much like another person would do it they were about to fall. In short if it was not for Midoriya's interference the zero pointer's entire body could have fell on top of the girl quite possibly crushing her in the process. I have made note of this flaw in the robot's design and am discussing it with the robot manufacturers and test examiners to hopefully prevent this from happening again."

"Thank goodness" All Might thought to himself glad that his young protege was right in his actions with most of the other heroes having similar actions of gratitude for the young man's actions. This moment of relief however was shattered when one of them realized something.

"Ok so while we are all grateful for Midoriya's actions in averting this disaster, the question we should still be asking is how was Midoriya able to have the intuition to see this kind of situation based on a bad feeling alone, several hours before this situation even happened." Aizawa states

This caused most of the heroes to be curious about this as well trying to come up with a reason believing to perhaps be related to his quirk somehow or perhaps a gut feeling, with All Might having a bit of a recollection when he heard Aizawa mention the word intuition.

All Might thinking to himself remembers an exchange that Midoriya had with Shoto a few weeks ago when he came to pick up Midoriya from a training session with the son of Endeavor. He happened to walk towards them at the end of one of their fighting sessions in his All Might form, when he overheard them talking and hid to hear the entire conversation. When Shoto had asked Midoriya on how he was able to get a much clearer understanding about his surroundings and judgement on others. Midoriya seeming as if he was dodging the question, just smiled as he had brought up the topic of a power he called Hyper Intuition, which made Toshinori believe that by the sound of it was the name of a quirk. Midoriya had stated that Hyper Intuition was a power that could see through all that allowed certain individuals to awaken with extraordinary awareness of their surroundings to where they would be able to unconsciously become aware of upcoming danger, allow the user to take down multiple foes by striking at critical weak points, dodging at the most opportune moments, determine whether someone was lying, and even being able to see through most illusions, which made both Shoto and All Might believe that Hyper Intuition to not only be a powerful quirk, but a quite useful one towards heroics.

Shoto having a mildly worrying look had asked Midoriya if he was someone who possessed this power but had told him that he did not as he had already had his Phoenix flames and that people in this world are born with only one quirk. Shoto still a bit skeptical about Midoirya's claims decided not to press further, but kept the thought back of his mind. All Might who had then emerged from his hiding spot walked toward the boys and said he was ready to take Midoriya home, but not before Shoto asked Midoriya where he had heard of Hyper Intuition, as he himself would have heard something about it considering that his father made him study the quirks of other heroes and villains, to which Midoriya smiled once more and stated that it was something that a great man once told him in a dream, causing both Shoto and All Might to be left in a state of confusion and intrigue trying to decipher Midoriya's cryptic message as he and All Might had left the facility they were in.

Toshinori returning from his flashback tries to contemplate the situation having inclinations that perhaps Midoriya was still hiding more than he was willing to share. Toshinori wonders to himself thinking that if what Midoriya had displayed during this crisis was the Hyper Intuition he had mentioned before, and it was with that power that prevented a catastrophe on U.A.'s watch. Toshinori would keep this thoughts to himself for now as Nezu spoke to the staff telling them that they would raise some questions with Midoriya to see if he could shine a better light on his "bad feelings" and that everyone still had much work to be done filling out the necessary paperwork, and reminded All Might that he still had dozens of holographic videos to make much to Yagi's dismay.

While everyone had dispersed from the room, returning to their assigned tasks, Yagi accompanied by Nezu headed towards the development wing of U.A. Academy to begin work on the acceptance letter holograms he along with a few other heroes would begin developing, but what seemed to have Toshi thinking more about the thought of Midoriya possibly having this so called Hyper Intuition, was the fact that Midoriya had mentioned about a great man in a dream who had described it to him. Could Midoriya have been referring to the brown-haired boy he had masqueraded as during the testing examination or could he have been describing someone else.

All Might's thoughts were interrupted once more when he and the other heroes heard a knock on the metal door. Present Mic approached the door with caution wondering who it could be as proceeded to open it. To everyone in the room's surprise it was none other the brown-haired girl who Midoriya had saved who had not yet left which had puzzled him.

The exam was already over and the scores would not be released until next week so what could she have been here for thought All Might.

To his surprise the brown-haired girl came asking if she could have some of her points transferred to Midoriya if the boy did not accumulate enough points to past, wanting to thank the boy for saving her in her time of need.

Toshinori hidden from the girl's sight could not help but form a smile on his face, deeply touched by her cries to help Midoriya pass even though Midoriya was already accepted into U.A., but also proud of Midoriya for showing the trait of a hero to inspire others with their actions.

Toshinori in thought "Midoriya, my dear boy. Even though there are some parts of your past you may not keen on sharing with us, I know that you will make a great hero one day." as he walked off from the girl's conversation with Present Mic to continue his work.

Toshinori's Residence: Several Hours Later

Midoriya entered the residence during the later hours of the night still exhausted from his interaction with the zero pointer with the cast around his arm serving as a reminder, along with Toshinori in his deflated state who was equally exhausted from all the holographic messages he had to make that he had used up all the time he had to be All Might.

Inko who came to welcome them back became worried sick when she saw the cast that was placed around her son's arm. After a worrying scolding from his mother along with half a minute of geysers gushing from her eyes did Izuku and Toshinori explain the situation to her.

After calming down his mother, Izuku headed back to his room while Toshinori stayed with his mother to discuss Midoriya's enrollment into U.A. Midoriya then proceeded to lie down on the bed as Leon jumped off from Midoriya's hair and onto the desk where he scampered off to the makeshift bed and quickly fell asleep.

Midoriya looked at Leon resting as a smile formed on his face as he felt grateful that someone like Leon was by his side assisting him throughout his endeavors, as well as being the only person or in this case chameleon where he could be openly honest with. Even if Leon could not verbally respond to Midoriya's dialogs and would often times just stare right back at him, he was glad that a part of Reborn was in a way always with him.

Though looking at the chameleon he could not help but notice some strange occurrences that had been taking place with Leon. For instance, Leon looked incredibly thinner as of late appearing as if he had lost close to a half of his body mass over the past few weeks, as well as a black ring forming around the base of chameleon's tail. Midoriya was originally worried about Leon condition but through his mental connection with Leon found nothing wrong as well as being given these strange mental assurances that Leon was fine.

This was not the only strange occurrence that took place with Leon as sometimes in the dead of night would just walk out of the residence and disappear from Midoriya's mental connection only to reappear back at the residence in the early hours of the morning. Midoriya had even asked if he could perhaps show or explain where and why he was leaving the residence only to be given the typical silent treatment, and once again receiving mental assurances that everything was fine.

Midoriya thinking back to the day's events could not help but wonder about the feelings that he had involving the zero-pointer wondering if he had done that right thing following through. Much to his relief he had been told by Toshinori that were it not for his interference the girl he saved Ochaco Uraraka would have been seriously harmed or even worse. He had been asked if he could perhaps go into further detail about how he was able to predict the impending danger, but told them that he wasn't completely sure himself.

Thinking about it now he couldn't help but be reminded of the Hyper Intuition he had been told about by Reborn, and had joked about with Shoto. After all the concept of Hyper Intuition was something derived from Reborn's world, and not his own. However, given the sheer numbers of quirk users in his world there were many quirks that had similar abilities to Hyper Intuition. One such example could be Sir Nighteye's quirk Foresight giving him the ability to see a person's actions for an entire hour, though while impressive still had its share of drawbacks.

Midoriya wondered if this was perhaps something that was been slowly transferred to him from the ball of sun flames that Reborn had transferred to him, as Midoriya himself began to associate just about any strange occurrence that was developing inside of him that he could not fully understand to be related to this. Midoriya had been contemplating theories on the ball of sun flames that Reborn bestowed upon to perhaps have contained other properties besides sun flames, ranging from his ability to create unmeltable ice, seeing memories of his former pupil, to his actions earlier today that seemed to share similarities to that of Hyper Intuition that Reborn touched upon during one of their sessions. But what those things could be still eluded Midoriya. But regardless having an additional ability in his arsenal was something Midoriya had no qualms about even if he could only access some of its potential, as even the slightest edge could determine victory and defeat.

Midoriya drifted off to sleep some time thereafter, excited that he would soon be entering the top hero school in Japan, while Leon who opened his eyes shortly after crawled out of his bed, jumped out the window, and into the streets of Japan going off to places unknown.

A Dark Alleyway Somewhere

A man with the characteristics of a lion wearing a safari hunter themed hero costume was being pressed against a wall with a blade shoved into one of his shoulders pinned against the wall blood dripping from his body in several areas with blood splattered in several areas of the dark alleyway. The hero was terrified of the man who was a mere ten inches in front of him before covered in bandages with a bloody katana in his hand, a gray mask and a blood red scarf drifting in the wind.

The Infamous Hero Killer: Stain

A man who the hero had encountered once before by accident while on one of his patrols and was left with most of his body crippled during his confrontation with the hero killer. He would have been killed if not for reinforcements arriving at the scene which much to the Stain's dismay who left feeling disappointed that he had to leave his work incomplete. He was left terrified with feelings of hopelessness surging through his body when he laid on the hospital bed, being told by doctors that even with the hero association's healers that there was little to no chance of even walking on his own two feet again let alone resuming his hero career.

That is until he was introduced by to a certain green haired boy known as Izuku Midoriya, who through the miracle of his powerful quirk managed to not only heal his wounds but also restored his ability to walk after several flame treatments. Tears could not stop flowing from his eyes as he roared with joy as he repeatedly thanked the boy over and over again, promising him to hopeful repay the kindness he had showed him. To which the boy responded with that it wasn't necessary and that he was happy to help, as helping others in need is what heroes do.

However, the man couldn't forget the terror that the hero killer instilled into him, who after informing the police and hero association of his encounter with the hero killer, moved his hero office far away from the hero killer's area of previous attacks hoping that he would never have to deal with that villain ever again.

How could his luck be so bad that when he had just climbed out from the depths of despair he encounter this madman once more who looked at him with disturbing interested examining him from head to toe as the hero stood there pinned against the wall unable to move his body after Stain had licked the blood on the katana paralyzing him just like before.

"You're the third" Stain replies confusing the terrified hero.

"You're are the third of the false heroes who have managed to escape from my grasp who seemed to have made quite the miraculously recovery despite the divine justice I dealt upon you all. Now tell me why is that?" He said with an increasing dark tone slowly inching toward the hero's face as he continued. "I am well aware of the those with healing quirks that you corrupt heroes have at your disposal and none of the ones in Japan could have healed your injuries to this extent unless … unless something or someone new has come into the equation."

Stain lifts the bloody katana close to his face still dripping with blood. "Now one or two heroes making that kind of recovery would not arouse my suspicion. But, I refuse to believe that it is coincidental for it to happen a third time in such a short time frame. Now you are going to tell me everything I want to know."

The hero did his best not to reveal any information, but Stain was an individual who would not stop until he got what he wanted, and since the hero was not going to give up the information so easily the hero killer proceed to torture the pro hero by making numerous minuscule cuts to his body while he remained pin on the wall ensuring to avoid any major arteries to ensure that he would not die from blood loss while licking the blood on his blade every few minutes to ensure that his quirk Bloodcurdle stayed in effect.

After half an hour of this torment the hero eventually succumbed to the pain, being too much for our hero and wishing for the pain to stop confessed to Stain about everything.

"Izuku Midoriya … Izuku Midoriya now why does that name sound familiar?" as Stain turned his back to the hero who was barely able to remain conscious breathing heavily. Stain eyes widen a bit as he continued "Wait a minute, I remember now it was a few months ago when the news talked about a boy who awakened to a powerful fire quirk who was originally deemed to be quirkless. Now I remember."

Stain without even turning around takes the katana in his hand and slashes the hero behind him as a streak of blood splatters across the alleyway's wall, the hero becoming unresponsive thereafter. Stain now armed with this new information leaves the alleyway contemplating of how to approach his next target.

#########

A few minutes after the hero killer had left, a man with gray hair, wearing glasses dressed in a purple suit emerged from the shadows observing the work of the hero killer Stain before him.

The Underworld Broker: Giran

He had been enjoying a smoke nearby when he was alerted to the sounds of a battle not too far from him and decided to take a look at what the commotion was about from a safe distance. He had watched as the hero killer tortured the hero for information, not fazed much by Stain's actions as he had seen people do far worse during his time in the underworld. But what made his day was the information that the hero had been forced into talking. Izuku Midoriya.

Giran had done dealings with many underground organizations and villains over the course of his time from supplying them with illegal support gear and costumes, providing confidential information, and even scouting for potential villains.

Though Giran's primary interest was dealing with information and selling it to the highest bidder who were always trying to find ways of staying ahead of not only current trends, but also with law enforcement and heroes trying to conduct raids on their businesses. There were several groups who had requested information involving Izuku Midoriya every since his debut with the sludge villain, including one of his new and promising clients known as the League of Villains.

He was well aware of the one pulling the strings behind the League of Villains being the legendary All for One who once had all of Japan under his thumb, who had lost much of his power and influence after his defeat at the hands of All Might, but that didn't mean he was meant to be taken likely.

He had secretly done some digging into the background of the man, as well as understanding what his future plans were, and found that over the course of the past five years had been tracking and gathering specific quirk users, whom were never heard from again. He knew of All for One's quirk of being able to steal and hand out quirks, so it was obvious to him why he wanted them for, and the League's desire for information relating to Izuku Midoriya was because they wanted information on his quirk before they stole I from him.

He believed that while the awakening of the boy's quirk was impressive didn't believe that it was too important as far as other fire or incendiary quirks, though from what he gathered being able to control what you could and couldn't burn could prove useful in situations to avoid friendly fire.

But what struck him as odd was that when he tried to gather more information relating to the boy's quirk and activities had been filed as Highly Classified by Japan's Hero Association, which had garnered both his intrigue and curiosity. Why was so much of the boy's activities and quirk information deemed as Highly Classified he wondered, believing that perhaps there was much more to his quirk then he originally though, and in his mind made he think that the information relating to it would become worth a whole lot more.

He had reached a roadblock in his efforts for more detailed information relating to the boy's quirk, and moved on to other projects deciding to come back to it later if he got more information on the boy. But who would have thought that the reason behind all the secrecy behind the boy's quirk was because it was not only an impressive fire quirk, but could also act as a powerful healing quirk.

A quirk that was not only capable of regenerating limbs, and healing near fatal injuries, but also acted as a powerful fire quirk. Even someone like Grian had to admit that a quirk of that power, magnitude, and versatility could easily put someone on the top of the social and economic food chain if the quirk was properly managed.

Grian smiled as he took out a cigarette and placed it into his mouth before taking out a lighter and igniting it. He then exhales out some smoke "Phoenix Flames huh, I guess that's an appropriate name for such a quirk, and one who many would be willing to pay a substantial payment to get their hands on" as he takes out a phone and calls one of his contacts.

"Hello Grain. To what do I owe the pleasure for this call."

"Hello Kurogiri, I have some information that could be quite beneficial to your cause, are you interested?"

Hey everyone, here's another chapter and I hope you all enjoy it. If your asking why this chapter took so long to come out, it was a mixture of both work and writer's block. I'm also like to let everyone know that there is no set time on when chapters will be released as once again is something of a hobby that requires flashes of inspiration as well as changing the direction of the story so far, several times. Though now that Midoriya will be starting classes soon, it will start heading towards the direction of its cannon counterpart with some changes here and there.

I will let you know that there will be some changes to this story's continuity than "Renew" with one of those decisions being obvious in this chapter, that individuals in he underground community are becoming aware of Midoriya's Phoenix Flames healing properties. How will this affect future events in the story I wonder?

Also introducing Stain in this chapter, I felt conflicted how he should be introduced and felt the scene he was in was a bit too much. Though looking at his background it is stated that Stain had already killed several heroes at this point and crippled several others. Could Stain understanding that someone like Midoriya is healing heroes he deems to be fake might affect how he approaches other heroes. Again, maybe or maybe not.

I sure most of you have noticed that there is no cover artwork for this story, and if you any of you all have any ideas or artwork ideas you want to submit to me to use let me know, though I am not sure how sending pictures works on this site or if someone just needs to send a link of that picture.

Don't forget to comment, follow, and favorite this story if you like it, and please don't forget to go and read and comment on "Renew" on Archive of Your Own as much of my inspiration to writing this comes from this, as like many of you with this fic hope to see more chapters be released. Thank you for all of your support.
