The following day after the sports festival Izuku had heard of the Pro Hero Ingenium. According to the news Ingenium had fought against the Hero Killer Stain and was lucky to be alive. Not many people survived the Hero Killer. Hearing that Izuku felt that he had to do something. He sent his sympathies to Tenya Iida who was the younger brother of Ingenium. Despite not knowing Izuku Iida was grateful toward Nedzu's former pupil for his sympathies.

"You okay Izu?" Mirio asked as he sat in the café.

"Y-Yeah just thinking." Izuku answered.

"About Ingenium?"

"Yes." Izuku nodded. "I mean I had always heard of the Hero Killer but hearing about it always has unsettled me."

"Hearing about Hero Killer is always unsettling." Mirio stated placing a hand on Izuku's. He kissed him shortly on lips. Izuku smiled after the kiss. He could just hear the smug faces of Clint and Tony who were no doubt spying on him.

"Um…E-Excuse me." A girl with brown hair and eyes walked over.

"Yes?" Mirio and Izuku looked at her.

"M-My name is Uaraka Ochaco, and I was wondering…"

"If I'm Nedzu's former pupil? Yeah that's me. Nice to meet you Uaraka-san." Izuku said politely. "Would you and your friends like to sit with us?"

"I-If that's okay."

"Sure!" Izuku gave her a bright smile. Uaraka and her friends sat down with Izuku and Mirio. Their conversation was lively as the first years asked Izuku about his time as Nedzu's pupil and living in America.


The Avengers were staying an extra few days, since there was still so much that they, save Izuku, wanted to see. Nedzu allowed them to remain in the support class dormitory. So, while the other Avengers where out exploring Hero Society Izuku spent most of his time working with Nedzu and keeping up in his training.

"Nedzu," Knocked the familiar voice of Easer-Head.

"Come in." Nedzu smiled. Easer-Head walked in and looked startled seeing Izuku holding a stack of paper.

"You called."

"Yes. I had an idea, but I deiced to run it by you first."

"Okay."

"Since Midoriya is a combat master, I thought he could give you class some hand to hand pointers. They could use the skills."

"I suppose." Easer-Head said. "As long he doesn't pull anything funny."

"I won't Easer-Head." Izuku spoke. "I know you don't like it because I'm quirkless but that doesn't mean I can offer something to help the next generation of heroes." Easer-Head nodded. Later that day Izuku was in one of the GYM waiting for Easer-Head and his class to arrive.

"I can't wait to see how the kid owns them."

"I want to see how Young Midoriya handles their quirks without using One for All." The doors of the GYM opened and Izuku instantly noticed Bakugo, Uaraka, and her friends. Izuku took a deep breathe as Easer-Head began explaining things to the class. Seeing the amazed and skeptical faces of the class Izuku sighed and got into position. Needless to say, Izuku was disappointed by the class. All of them had so much potential but seemed to all be held back by something.

"He's quirkless and yet he defeated everyone like it was nothing." Said Kaminari.

"Is me being quirkless that much of an issue?" Izuku asked a little annoyed.

"N-No sir!" Said the class save Bakugo. Izuku started giving pointers to the class and even providing his own analyst of the fight. Hearing what Izuku had to say seemed to be inspiring. Once Izuku was done talking he let them try again.

"Todoroki, can I ask why you refuse to use the fire side of your quirk." Izuku asked during the second training match.

"Because I don't want to be like him." Todoroki said hinting to his father.

"You aren't him even if you used your fire." Izuku said.

"You don't understand!"

"Then help me understand. Because the way I see it just because he has a similar quirk doesn't make you him. The power you wield is yours not his. He cannot decide how you use it. In fact, he has no say in what your power can and cannot do." Izuku told him. Seeing the shocked expression on Todoroki's face made Izuku smile. Suddenly the fire half of Shoto's quirk activated.

"Whoa…" Breathed Kirishima.

"Hey, hey Todoroki calm down!" Said Mineta.

"We're happy you're going a 100% Plus Ultra now but seriously you don't need to burn down the gym." Said Sero.

Izuku laughed, "They have a point Todoroki. By the way I'd stop before you burn your clothes off."

"Huh?" Todoroki looked down. "Oh…" He turned off his flames. "Sorry."

"No, no it's fine. Now just learn how to control it." Izuku said.

"That should be easy."

"Let's hope. I don't think UA can afford to get burned down."

"They're rich like Stark. They'll be fine."


After training in the Gym for the past hour Izuku was heading back to his room at the support class dorms. While he was walking, he was listening to the conversation of the vestiges. Their conversations where very interesting to listen too.

"Izu!" Mirio called jogging over.

"Why aren't you in class?" Izuku asked narrowing his eyes making Mirio panic.

"I-I…"

"OOF he's in trouble!"

"Couldn't have waited three more hours, could he?"

"Leave him be he's in love and wants to spend time with his boyfreind."

"Mirio Togata." Izuku addressed. "You are still a student and should be focusing on your studies. I love you to the moon and back but that's no excuse to turn your back on your studies. As I recall they aren't the greatest. It takes more than practical skill to graduate from UA."

"Yes sir." Mirio said looking down. Izuku sighed and kissed Mirio on the cheek.

"So cute!"

"Now go." Izuku ordered. Mirio nodded and went back to class. Izuku rubbed the back of his neck continuing his way to the dorms. The vestiges noticed a notebook in Izuku's hands as he read over it. It was written in some kind of code.

"Did he learn that from Collison?"

"I wouldn't be surprise if he just picked it up." Izuku continued his way to the dorms when his phone began to buzz. He pulled it out and saw that it was Tamaki.


Eater of the Sun:

Hey Midoriya, can I talk to you for a second?

Green Bean:

Sure.

What's up?

Eater of the Sun:

I, well, may or may not have a crush.

Green Bean:

Whoa!

Really?!

Who!?

Eater of the Sun:

His name is Eijiro Kirishima.

He's in class one a.

And we used to know each other.

Green Bean:

Used to?

Eater of the Sun:

Yeah, he was four and I was six when we first met.

I was getting bullied because of my quirk while I was visiting family for the summer, and he stood up for me.

We became friends over the summer but then I had to go back home.

We didn't keep in touch like I had hoped.

I recognized him a few days ago

Green Bean:

And let me guess.

Once you recognized him

You fell in love?

Eater of the Sun:

Basically

He shouldn't but he didn't seem to recognize me

Green Bean:

Well you said that he was four at the time you guys met right?

So, he probably doesn't remember it all that well.

Why don't you try and become friends with him?

Eater of the Sun:

You know making friends is hard for me.

Green Bean:

I know, but if you want to try and ask Kirishima out

You're going have to make him remember.

And the only way I can think of is to become his friend again.

Because in theory, if you spend enough time together and mention something about the past.

He might remember it.

And who knows, hopefully by that time he's fallen in love with you.

Eater of the Sun:

Well I guess its worth a shot.

Thanks, Midoriya.

Green Bean:

No problem.


He shouldn't be doing this. He REALLY shouldn't be doing this AT ALL. Izuku made his way to Huso City where the Hero Killer was last seen. He knew he would be getting questions from anyone from UA that would recognize him. So, he tried to be as hidden as possible. He knew that if push came to shove, he would be running into Iida if he knew that the Hero Killer was undoubtably in town. But he would have to worry about that for when that happened. Right now, he was focusing on finding the Hero Killer. He had gathered all the information he could get his hands on starting to analyze it and look for potential targets that the Hero Killer would go after. The Hero Killer had a pattern. He attacked no more than three heroes per city. Which meant that Stain would be attacking two more heroes in Hosu City. Izuku using float moved from roof top to roof top looking for the Hero Killer. It was peaceful was he patrolled looking for the Hero Killer that was until downtown Huso City went up in flames. Nomu where rampaging through the city. Izuku pulled out a gun and aimed for the heads taking out Nomus easily despite he was using a simple handgun.

"Nice shot kid."

"Wait when did we get here?"

"Is that Gran Torino!?"

"Wait that's your friend Shimura!? Holy shit he's gotten smaller than the last time we saw him." Izuku moved on letting the heroes to deal with what was left. Izuku jumped down into an alley. Hearing a scream coming from deeper in the alley Izuku rushed over seeing Iida in his hero costume on the floor bleeding with the Hero Killer above them.

"Oh shit!"

"You know I'm not surprised by what's going on."

"You got this Young Midoriya."

"Kick his ass."

Izuku walked over activating his mask's newly installed voice modulator and called out, "That's enough Hero Killer!"

"You shouldn't interfere in other people's business." Warned Stain.

"Yeah well I've never liked bullies same could be said for my dear friend. I know our ideology; you believe that Heroes should be more like All Might. Some who cares very little for the money and popularity, but even if you do know about the "Fakes" that doesn't make you judge and jury." Izuku said and charged at the Hero Killer Stain. Izuku allowed the Hero Killer to make the first strike and overpowered the villain with a knee to the stomach and an elbow to the next. Izuku quickly tied up the Hero Killer before heading over to Iida. "You alright?"

"Y-Yes thank you." Iida said. "Wh-Who are you."

"That isn't important." Izuku said tending to the wound. Hearing footsteps of the pros Izuku left Iida and booked it down the opposite direction. He kept running as Iida called out to him and the pros arrived. He knew that he was probably going to hell from Steve once he got back, but oh well at least the Hero Killer was in custody.


"Can't wait to see the news headlines."

"Think Iida will figure it out?"

"Wouldn't be surprised if he did."

"Izu!" Mirio cheered entering the younger boy's room.

"Oh, hey Mirio. How as the work study?"

"It was good." Mirio smiled wrapping his arms around Izuku. "Now let me cuddle while I get you all to myself."

"Sounds nice." Izuku smiled back and cuddled into Mirio's hold.
