It was Thursday afternoon. Wednesday was a fairly standard run-of-the-mill day. Izuku was sitting at his desk stretching out his legs. It was about the time for Endeavor to come around. Except today he didn't. Izuku had been texting with his friends. A one Kendo from class B had somehow gained his number. Tetsutetsu had also got his number. After a surprisingly convincing conversation with Kendo he added her to the 'Symbol of Peace' line group. Kirishima had begged and pleaded with Izuku to add Tetsutetsu as well. Which he buckled fairly quickly. It was fine since both of them were actually quite normal.

Izuku opened a private chat with Todoroki.

D20: Todo, how goes it?

Snowflake: Iida is starting to get desperate. He's been breaking away from his handler. Stain so far hasn't been seen lately at all.

D20: That's good I guess. Hopefully, Stain can stay away until Friday night.

Snowflake: Same. Stain sounds pretty intimidating.

D20: Just don't engage him. He's a killer.

Snowflake: Roger.

Izuku closed the private chat and then opened another one with Momo. She had changed her sign to a Star.

D20: How are you doing? I saw the ad and you look great in it!

Star: Bored. Getting sick of doing 2-4 hours of make up and hair styling! Thanks though.

D20: Its almost over. Has there been any activity recently?

Star: Nope. Been quiet as could be. How's things going with Mei?

That caught Izuku off guard he wasn't expecting to get a question like that from Momo.

D20: Its been a bit rocky ever since my schedule got so busy. She's kept herself busy too so it hasn't been too bad.

Star: I'm sorry to hear that.

Izuku paused for moment wondering about the sudden interest. Most people that asked questions like that had an ulterior motive. He didn't want to think Momo would do that, but it was possible.

D20: Why did you ask?

Star: I just wanted to make sure you were doing well. For some people their girlfriend/boyfriend is their rock.

D20: Fair enough. But I'm not normal at all.

Star: No you're not. Lol.

D20: Smiley Face. Talk to you later.

Star: Likewise.

It was around dusk when Endeavor came to see him. "You've been doing well. I'll actually be sad to see you go," Endeavor commented hovering over Izuku.

"Yeah, I kind of enjoy being support. But I do like being out there more," Multi Force stated smiling up at Endeavor.

"Your numbers are pretty good too. Come on let's get out there," Endeavor gestured to the elevator.

Multi Force stood up and started to apply his armor. He had done this many times and had quite good at reapplying his equipment.

"Ready at a moments notice, eh?" Endeavor pointed out as they were both in the elevator.

"I have to be to be the best, right? I might have them redesign my armor again," Mutli Force chuckled and cracked his knuckles.

"Have you considered my offer?" Endeavor asked out of the blue.

"The one for your quirk?" Multi Force asked getting a nod from the pro, "I think I can do without. I've already got so many good quirks. It'll be difficult if I get too many after all."

Endeavor didn't reply and looked like he was in thought. The rest of the ride down was silent. Multi Force had grown quite comfortable around the pro hero. When he wasn't on scene Endeavor was a pretty good guy.

"You coming or should I get out there by myself?" Multi Force asked Endeavor who was still in the elevator.

"Oh right. Let's head out," Endeavor snapped to his senses. They strode out into the city. There was an off vibe from Endeavor. He was plotting something and Multi Force would not like it. They got stopped by some local gang members.

"Hey, Multi Force!" one of them beckoned over. It was about 3 guys and a woman. They were all wearing baggy clothes and leaning against something. Multi Force looked up at Endeavor. Endeavor shrugged.

The teen walked over to the group. "What's up?" Multi Force asked. He didn't want to be overly formal all the time.

"I've to say sorry man," one of the lizard looking guys apologized.

"For what?" Multi Force asked.

"A few days ago, my homie thought you were some pretentious asshole. So he was like 'yo, I'm gunna get some of my pepps together and scare this foo'," the man explained.

"Oh, that guy? Sorry they got arrested assaulting me," Multi Force smirked.

The guy waved, "Nah, he was stupid. We told him ya got to get him into an alley, but foo' was like 'nah man I got this'." Multi Force laughed a bit at the comment and a few of the gang members laughed with him.

"Again, man, no hard feelin'. I ain't lookin' to fight ya. I think ya really could be the new Symbol," the man stated offering a handshake to Multi Force. The teen accepted the gesture and smiled at them in return.

"I won't forget about you guys. I'm sorry for the shit society has put you through, but I'll do what I can to correct it when I go pro," Multi Force promised.

"You ain't the first to claim it, but ya the first I believe," the man replied. The other members nodded.

Multi Force and Endeavor had to go. He waved goodbye. The two heroes we're walking the streets. The traffic was near nonexistent and they were only a few groups of people here and there. Apparently, world had got around and Multi Force was the people's champion. This was amazing for his publicity and it felt pretty good to be recognized.

"You sure have a way to inspire people. That's a rare trait for heroes to have," Endeavor commented grinning madly.

"I just was being honest and true to myself. Its nothing special," Multi Force shrugged.

"Except it is. Not many have the natural magnetism you do. I think you're going to go places," Endeavor patted him on the back as he had done a few times before. Then Multi Force felt it. Skin to skin contact at his neck. Multi Force pivoted on a dime and jumped away from the pro. This was not missed by the gangs.

"What the hell did you just do?!" Multi Force shouted feeling the new quirk pop into his space. Fire crackled and popped all over his skin. His natural fire resistance shot up. His hair was engulfed by the fire. It was green in color. The other flames around his body were red in color. Due to the thickness of his armor the flame routed to his triceps membranes. It was uncontrollable at first. Explosions popped like machine gun from his hand. The fire quirk was setting off the explosive sweat. He had to adjust his quirk space. Explosion and Hellflame were put on a toggle against each other. If one was on the other could not be. The toggle could be made on the fly and required just a thought.

"Its a parting gift," Endeavor grinned, "I had hoped you would make the decision, but instead you make it hard for me. It was quite the task getting you to trust me."

"I told you, NO! Getting a new quirk isn't some kind of cake walk for me. Its hard to learn and its harder when you have to factor in quirk synergies," Multi Force was angry. The pro had no right to just impose his quirk on Izuku. But now it was permanent.

"Seems like the base part of the quirk is already active. You're a natural after all," Endeavor commented. The thin part of Multi Force's glove was just enough to allow the fire flow from it. Summoning the fire was the easy part. What interested Izuku was the pure malleability of the fire. While he could just output it and throw it at people. He could also make a formed weapons like a sword or spear. This was a pretty versatile quirk after all.

The teen made a flaming sword, "I guess having a few other quirks let me get used to it quicker."

"Wow, such control. I'll give you a few pointers then. If you focus you can control the temperature, the thickness, and the radius of heat. Changing any of those to extreme values will be tiring and comes with the risk of overheating if the range is very high," Endeavor offered.

While it was nice getting that info, he was still pissed at the pro. He only had one question, "Radius of Heat?"

"Indeed, if you reduce the radius down to nothing you can make heatless flame that's actually cool to the touch," Endeavor pointed to his hair.

Multi Force nodded and felt around the quirk. He modified it to have three properties and each property was given 5 gears. Gear 0 was a special mode for all the properties to be put into. The heat would have no radius during this gear. His explosions were gauged similarly. Explosion was instead set between a minimum and maximum threshold.

The phone in his pocket vibrated. He dropped his flame into 0. A message had been sent to his line group. It was from Todoroki. It was a set of four numbers. Izuku just stared at the numbers for a bit. It dawned on him what they could be. They were coordinates. One was an alleyway and the other the nearest entrance to said alleyway.

An alleyway?... Stain! Izuku realized his eyes going wide. The hero in training toggled explosion and touched his face. Without as much as a word he was rocketing off.

Endeavor tapped his earpiece, "Dispatch give me an update on Multi Force's location. He blasted off and it looked urgent."

"Sir, he's moving at around 180 km/h," the dispatch replied. Holy shit that's fast! I'll need to catch a train to keep up with that, Endeavor thought running to the nearest station.

"He's en route to Hosu. Which according to the reports, all hell has broken loose," the dispatch stated.

"Give me a detailed report," Endeavor requested. He had time after all.

- Stain vs Tenya Iida -

Tenya had sneaked away from the pro sidekick that was with him. Stain MO was alleyways and one on one fights. After a few days of searching he had finally struck gold. Tenya was blinded by his desire for revenge. His brother would no longer be able to ever uphold his hero name again. If it hadn't been for his dark choices he would have taken his brothers name.

Stain was standing over a hero. The man was sitting against the wall barely moving. Tenya had one good shot before Stain would be aware of him. Despite all of his instincts telling him to get help, he was determined to bring down Stain.

Tenya rushed forward and burst onto the scene. Stain was almost caught off guard. The hero killer had blocked the kicked.

"What are you doing? Go get help! Don't fight him!" the hero warned. Tenya ignored him.

"What kind of amateur are you?" Stain asked pointing his sword at Tenya.

"I want to avenge my brother! You crippled him and he can't be a hero anymore!" Tenya shouted anger laced in his voice.

"Ah, another unworthy hero. But you are the lamb that was lead to the sacrifice. Why don't you call for help before its too late," Stain mocked grinning. He was fortunate that the sacrifice had come to him and now was possible for the trap to be set.

At around that moment a bloodcurdling screamed pierced the city sounds. The nomus had come out to play. "I'll take you down myself," Tenya retorted earning a sigh from Stain. The hard way. Tenya lunged at Stain clearing the distance in a split second. A kicked was leveled at Stain. The hero killer dodged under the kick and sliced upwards. Tenya jumped back but his helmet was caught. It was knocked off him. He clearly was outmatched by the hero killer. This did not deter him. Rage and revenge blinded him.

The fight didn't last to much longer when Stain had nicked him again. Tenya was on the ground after tripping over from dodging. He was on his chest since he rolled away from a stomp. Then he was paralyzed. It was complete and absolute except for his mouth. He was still able to speak.

"As expected of an amateur like you. Taking vengeance into your own hands. That isn't becoming of a hero," Stain said crouching over the teen.

"Go to hell! I don't need a lecture from a murderer like you!" Tenya shouted from his position.

"Murderer? I'm the cleanser of society. Without me shitty heroes like you and him would just be allowed to roam free. But you're just pretenders only doing it for selfish reasons," Stain stated standing up, "Pretenders need to die." He held his sword just above Tenya's neck. He couldn't see it, but the teen could feel his doom.

That was until a streak of fire shot down the alleyway.

- Todoroki - A bit Earlier -

Fires had broken out all across the area. Nomus were on the streets wrecking havoc. Shoto spotted Manual out on the streets shouting for someone. Black Magus got closer to the pro.

"Manual, where is Iida?" Black Magus asked getting close enough to him.

"I don't know, Magus, just before the chaos broke out I lost track of him," Manual admitted.

Shit, that idiot! Black Magus cursed under his breath. The teen ran off and pulled out his phone. He was checking the maps nearby and spotted a few good alleyways to attack someone. He was skating on his ice trying to be quick about it. He probably had only one chance to get it right. Just as if entered the alleyway he pinned the location. Black Magus was panicking hoping he wasn't too late. There was no way Iida could hold his own against the Hero Killer.

Shoto didn't know if he had what it takes either, but he should be a closer match than Iida right now. His first guess struck gold. Again he pinned the map again and sent out of the coordinates to the Symbol line group.

Stain was just about to go for the kill. Black Magus held out his left hand and a beam of fire exploded from it. Stain was quick. The Hero Killer jumped back completely dodging the fire. If it wasn't for the other two and the tight quarters he could go all out.

"Another amateur steps up to the plate? Did you also come here for revenge?" Stain questioned him.

Stalling was in Shoto's best interest. "I'm just here to look out for my friend. I'm here to save him from you," Black Magus stated icing over the ground.

"How noble of you! Come on show me you're strong enough to be a hero!" Stain sliced through his ice. A feat Black Magus was not prepared for. The Hero Killer was slowly advancing on him. The ice didn't hinder him at all. The fire kept him at bay the most.

Ice spikes were brought up at him. The man jumped into the air and kicked off a wall. Two knives were thrown at Black Magus with high accuracy and a surprising speed. His ice wasn't fast enough to stop them. Both of them land home into his left arm. Stain was getting ever closer. His fire was no longer an option as without his hand to guide it, he had no accuracy. He wasn't willing to condemn two lives to just win. More ice then.

Stain was bouncing off the walls preventing his ice from be effective at all. Black Magus was not prepared for this level of speed. He had pretty good control but if his ice couldn't get close and it was too slow to actually land then he wasn't in a good spot. Two more knives sunk into Shoto's left leg. Escape options had just been removed. All he had left was hope.

Stain was at point-blank range when suddenly his sword was stopped. Black Magus dared not to move if this was a ploy. He had felt the tip of the blade on his neck and it bleed a bit.

"Let me just tell you the day I've had getting here!" that was an all to familiar voice. A voice that calmed down Shoto in an instant. The white and red-haired teen seriously doubted Stain could hold his own against Midoriya.

- Izuku – Flying En Route -

The air rushed by Multi Force. He was almost there when he heard the screams and saw the fire. What a bloody mess, Multi Force thought. If Todoroki was there he could hold his own for a bit. Multi Force was in midair surveying the disaster.

Then out of nowhere a flying nomu collided with him. Claws tore into his armor as he turned to face the monster. It wasn't big like the one before. Still it was inhumanly strong. Multi Force used Full Power! He tore the claw out of his armor and socked the monster across the face. The creature recoiled back but went on the offensive. It lunged at him. Multi Force grabbed the wrist of the beast and made a arc of explosions. They were now spinning at quite the speed. Mid spin he changed from horizontal to vertical spinning.

Multi Force let out a massive explosion into the Nomu. Coupled with the momentum it had from spinning, it hit the ground going nearly the speed of sound. The ground cratered from the impact force. Multi Force released his Force Nullification and landed nicely on the ground.

The beast stood up from the crater. The hero in training was not surprised. The nomu were ridiculous creatures. The nomu beat its wings. Multi Force toggled Hellflame. He made a green fire sword. He had found out that if channeled stockpile into the fire quirk that the fire color would change. The effects of the stockpile amplified the heat and thickness of the fire.

Using telekinetic power he formed a psychic sword around the fire. The fire and psychic energy fused at the blade's edge. Instead of a rolling flame that changed various shades of green, the sword was one shade. It was a sharp contrast to his green fire hair.

Multi Force swung the sword and cut off one of its wings. The nomu was grounded now. The heat from the blade was so intense it cauterized the wound. None of regeneration the nomu had would help with a wound like that. The creature seemed pissed. It lunged at Multi Force.

He put the sword into ground and prepped his next attack. For now he was calling the sword 'Hellblade'. Multi Force dodged to his right. The nomu without his wings was pretty slow. He focus a huge percent of stockpile into his right arm muscle. Then doubled it. Next he added on top of that his psychic strength. He had been dabbling with a type of telekinesis called Tactile-kinesis. It was using psychic strength to augment his strength and fortify his body.

Multi Force swung, "Megaton Strike!" His arm strength from the stockpile was approaching 9x times empowerment. Then his psychic power added another 150kg (330lbs) to that. When the hit landed the Nomu was pounded into the concrete and it was laying limp. He had connected fully with that strike to the Nomu's face.

He dispelled his sword and switched for explosion. Now that he had quite a few quirks he found out that turning them off didn't end their physical effects. He rocketed off again.

It was a matter of seconds before Stain was in his view. Todoroki was about to get decapitated. Multi Force reaction out with all his telekinesis and halted the Hero Killer.

"Let me just tell you the day I've had getting here!" Multi Force yelled landing just next to Todoroki. The green haired teen waved at Stain and threw him back some dozen meters (38ft). Todoroki grabbed his neck and sighed.

"That was close," The teen stated looking at Izuku, "What happened to you?!"

"Someone released a few nomus and I just had to run into one of them. Bastard is taking a dirt nap for now," Izuku replied feeling that Stain was struggling to move. The man was pretty strong and Izuku only had a few minutes to restrain him.

"And I thought I had it hard taking on this guy," Todoroki commented. Izuku walked over to Iida who was on the ground.

Izuku crouched down to examine Iida, "Hey big guy. How are you doing? You appear to be paralyzed."

"Why are you guys here?" Iida whimpered. He was on the verge of crying.

"We're your friends, Iida. This is what friends do. They look out for each other. You think I want to see my friend go out and make a stupid choice. Then possibly lose his life or worse his heroism," Izuku replied lighting up his right hand. His healing quirk should be able to fight the paralyzation. Blood was dripping from his nose.

"Todoroki, help them get out of here. I'm going to heal the other hero as well," Izuku commanded striding over to the sitting hero.

"You can't hope to hold him off," the hero stated.

"You're right. I'll restrain him until back up arrives. You're looking at the next Symbol of Peace. What kind of a hero would I be if I didn't prioritize the victims and get them out of here?" Izuku smiled and healed the down hero. The man stood up but was really tired.

Izuku had to release his telekinesis. "So the pretender has finally showed up?!" Stain yelled from across the alleyway.

"Pretender? I think you're mistaken. I'm the real deal," Izuku replied glancing at Todoroki as he helped the other two leave.

"If you're so confident you won't mind going one on one with me and show me that you really are All Might's successor," Stain pulled out a few throwing knives.

"As much as you would enjoy that. I don't have a license and won't fight you," Izuku pointed out. Once Todoroki got out of sight, he brandished his Hellblade. "I'm just here to stall you until a real hero gets on the scene," Izuku activated his Full Power!

Stain hurled a dozen knives at him before he got into melee range. Every knife had been deflected by psychic energy.

Thanks to Izuku's empowerment his physical prowess was above that of Stain. Their swords clashed. Stain had to back away when the blade was turning red hot.

"Stain. You're quite the fighter, but I'm the closest thing the student body has to a pro hero," Izuku commented blocking Stain's strikes. He was going to remain on the defensive as he knew he really could do a number on Stain.

"What arrogance, Pretender. Someone like you could never be the Symbol of Peace," Stain growled trying to land a few knives into Izuku.

Just to prove a point, Izuku allowed them to land. He pulled them out with telekinesis and the wounds healed in an instant. Stain did not miss this detail. Then Izuku really got cocked. A sword swipe had just graced his cheek.

Stain thought he had won. He licked up the blood of the pretender and fired off his quirk. Izuku had felt the paralysis take hold, but his super regeneration ate through the paralysis in a matter of a split second. This had him feigning being paralyzed.

"Not so mighty now, pretender? Except for that arrogance of yours you were a true hero," Stain admitted.

"I think you are confusing arrogance for confidence, Stain. Its a part of intimidating villains. Even All Might boasts to see if the villain's confidence can waiver. Its an excellent strategy to attempt to deescalate the situation," Izuku smirked.

Stain was speechless. This teen had more than enough qualifications to be a pro. "Oh well, I guess you were too weak to be a real hero," Stain stated bringing up his sword. The man came down with his blade.

Stain was too slow to reaction to Izuku. An elbow landed in Stain's gut and then the pummel from his telekinetic sword collided with Stain's face. Stain recoiled back and hit a wall. Izuku dispelled his sword.

"It was fun Stain, but I'm going to arrest you. Your quirk worked on me for a whopping 1 millisecond," Izuku stated reaching for Stain.

Stain tried to lash out but the telekinesis stopped him. Then Izuku felt a familiar blood lust. A hand came out from a void. Multi Force jumped out of the way dodging the hand. It was Shigaraki's hand.

"I'm sorry but not today," Stain lamented but stepped back into a portal. Then all at once nothing. They had used that small distraction to get Stain out of there. Izuku was beyond angry.

He stomped out of the alleyway to see Endeavor on the street battling it out with a black eyeless nomu. It was a fairer match than it should have been. Multi Force had swapped back to explosion. This was not the time to make things complicated with Todoroki.

After another hour of fighting, the pros had finally gotten all the fire and nomus under control. Multi Force and the other students were instructed to assist citizens. They were also told to stay out of the way. Iida was really beating himself up.

"Iida, I'm sorry I couldn't get Stain, but he was getting help by the League," Izuku apologized.

"I'm sorry I dragged all of you into this," Iida looked at Todoroki and Izuku.

"Don't be. Just don't do stupid stuff like that again," Todoroki scolded him.

"Iida, we're your friends and you should have just talked to us. I know he crippled your brother, but he will get his eventually," Izuku promised.

"Thanks, coming from you that means a lot," Iida admitted.

"Now chin up! We're god damn heroes in training! Let's start acting like it," Izuku scolded them.

Today Iida and Todoroki had one hell of a skirt with death. Later that evening they had to go down to the police station and make statements. Izuku had to stay a lot longer as he actually did the most and saw the most.

The next morning Iida and Todoroki were sitting in hospital beds. Izuku was visiting them. The chief of police came into the room. He had a dog head which Izuku thought was fitting for the chief of police. "Good evening gentleman," he said.

"Evening," Iida and Todoroki replied. Izuku waved.

"I was fortunate to have caught all of you in the same room, ruff," the chief stated.

Izuku looked at either of his friends, Did he just ruff?Is no one going to address this? The chief continued, "I have some bad news for all of you. You all have two choices to make: one you can take credit for fighting Stain and we will reprimand you all or Endeavor can take the credit and no one will be the wiser."

"We did the right thing," Todoroki retorted.

Instead of the chief rebutted him Izuku spoke up, "That would make us no better than vigilantes. There's a reason we need licenses to be a hero. I personally vote for Endeavor route."

Todoroki snarled clearly disappointed. Iida hung his head, "I want to be known for it, but I agree with Midoriya. I've had a lot of time to reflect and clearly my actions were out of line. I know what I want to do."

Todoroki sighed, "Alright, I hate my old man, but I guess that's the better of the two options."

"Now that's settled," the man took off his hat and bowed, "The police thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Without you there the carnage could have been much worse, ruff."

God damn it again! Izuku thought nodding at the sentiment. Iida broke and tears streamed. He nodded. "I don't know about them but I think that made it worth it," Todoroki commented.

The chief wasn't done as he stood up straight, "Just don't repeat this. I won't be able to save you scrutiny if you break the law a second time, ruff."

Izuku understood him, but the ruff was driving the young man crazy. After that the chief left them. "Did any else notice the ruffs?" Izuku asked the room.

"That's racist," Todoroki pointed out. Izuku burst out laughing from the monotone reply.

Drakonite227:

A nice long chapter. Went in a totally different direction than canon here. This will change the training ground attack. Hopefully, this was a satisfying direction to see the story to go in.

Also Izuku gets Endeavor's quirk will be brought up later by a few folks. He didn't get it on purpose and he's super pissed about it.
