Six In One

by TheDullGuy

Izuku is on the ground facing Katuki, a stronger Katsuki with the ability to create explosions from his entire body, not just his palms. This is where the timeline truly differs from the original timeline. As Izuku plans to capture Katsuki, black tendrils come out of his body as violently as they appear. Izuku finds out this is a start of something new... A start for the Six In One

6. Under The Watchful Nighteye

Under The Watchful Nighteye

Before the story starts some parts of the show will just be summarized because it will go similar to what happened in canon so I felt no need to rewrite a scene that wasn't even changed

———————————————————————

A day before the students return to school.

Cementoss was in the staff room checking the students' offers from Pros. "Huh. Offers for the first years are still coming in. Looky here." That caught Toshinori's attention.

"Who's that one for!?" Toshinori asked.

"It's for Midoriya." Cementoss answered.

"Really? Who's after him?" When he read who it was from, Toshinori's face turn gloomy. "Oh no..."

———————————————————————

The next day.

Izuku was on the train on his way to school when he met one of his fans from the Sports Festival.

"Hey, you. Excuse me." A passenger whispered to Izuku. "You're Midoriya from Class 1-A!" He loudly said. Which grabbed the attention of everyone on the train.

"Great job at the Sports Festival, I rooted for you!" The man gave a thumbs up to Izuku.

Izuku started to get nervous as everyone started to give him their praise.

"You were in the top eight, right?"

"That's so impressive!"

"You tied with Endeavor's son!"

"Yeah, I can tell you really wanna be a pro one day!"

"Keep trying for it, hero!" Everyone on the train yelled to support Izuku

"I will! Thanks!" Izuku doesn't think he'll get used to this level of praise.

———————————————————————

Later, after Izuku left the train. He could see UA high school a few feet away. It sucks it was raining but good thing he has his umbrella.

He sighs. "I feel like I'm barely awake."

"Good morning, Midoriya!" Tenya yelled as he races behind Izuku.

"Ah—" He turns to see Tenya's get-up. "Whoa, Iida? You went all out with the rain gear." Izuku also notices that he doesn't see Tenya's elbow poking out like they usually do. "Hey, Iida—" He was cut off by Tenya saying.

"Why on earth are you walking so slowly? You'll be late." Tenya races past the boy.

"Late? But there's still five minutes until the first bell." Izuku races beside Tenya.

"UA students should always arrive ten minutes early, don't you think?" Tenya was being too uptight. He races ahead of Izuku.

———————————————————————

Later Izuku tried to ask Tenya about his brother, but Tenya told him he'll be fine.

Meanwhile in Class 1-A. The rest of the class was happy by how they were treated like celebrities by everyone thanks to the UA Sports Festival. Except for Hanta, who was embarrassed that he got mocked by little kids.

Shota enters the class and announced they'll make their hero names, but before that, he shows off their offer from Pro-Heroes.

———————————————————————

Shota gave a long, lengthy explanation about the relationship between hero names and internships. "This is related to the pro hero draft picks that I mentioned the last time we were in class together. Normally, students don't have to worry about the draft yet. Not until your second year or third year actually, but your class is different. In fact, by extending offers to first-years like you, pros are essentially investing in your potential. Any offers can be rescinded if their interest in you dies down before graduation, though."

Minoru hits his desk. "Stupid, selfish adults."

"So, what you're saying is, we'll still have to prove ourselves after we've gotten recruited." Tooru said.

"Correct." Shota answer. "Now. Here are the totals for those of you who got offers." The chart showed the students' offers.

Shoto Todoroki - 4023

Katsuki Bakugo - 3656

Tenya Iida - 361

Fumikage Tokoyami - 300

Denki Kaminari - 272

Momo Yaoyorozu - 108

Eijrio Kirishima - 68

Ochako Uraraka - 20

Hanta Sero - 14

Izuku Midoriya- 1

"In the past year, it's been more spread out. But there's a pretty big gap this time." Shota pointed out.

"Gah! That's not fair." The ungrateful Denki said.

"What about the real stay! Moi?" Yuga was fuming.

"Todoroki got the most, ahead of Bakugo?" Kyouka was confused.

"Yeah, he only made it to the top 8." Eijiro said.

"They probably weren't excited about working with a wild animal." Hanta joked.

"If I scared a pro, they're just weak!" Katsuki yelled.

Momo sighs at the little number of offers she received. She turns to Shoto. "That's amazing. You must be proud." She was proud of her classmate.

"These offers are probably because of my father." Shoto put himself down.

Ochako gasp and shake Tenya in his seat. "People want us!" She giggles.

Minoru was doing the same thing to Izuku, he was shaking him. "Midoriya. You only got one!" He pointed out. "I bet everyone was grossed out by the way you were fighting Todoroki."

Izuku sighs. "It's probably just Gran Torino." He guesses.

"Despite these results, you'll all be interning with pros. Got it?" Shota demand. "Even those of you who didn't get any offers."

———————————————————————

After that, they all get their hero names. Every single one is the same in canon.

———————————————————————

Shota and Midnight left the room to give the students time to talk about their offers.

"So, guys, have you decided what pro agency you wanna go for?" Mina said gloomily about her lack of offers.

"Mt. Lady's my top choice!" Minoru said.

"Mineta. Are you thinking something perverted?" Tsuyu rightfully accuses.

"Possibly..." Minoru said.

"You made it pretty far in the tournament. Weirdly, you didn't get any offers." Mashirao pointed out to Mina.

"I know." Mina agree

Ochako giggles and turns to Izuku. "Hey, Deku. What do you think of your offer?" She asked

"Oh, I haven't checked yet." Izuku looked at his paper and his eyes widen and a smile formed on his face.

"So, who is it?" Ochako asked again, waiting for an answer.

Denki sneaks behind Izuku and read his paper. "Oh my god! Nighteye! Who is that?!" Denki yelled so that the entire class could hear it.

"Oh wow, you got Nighteye." Shoto was impressed.

"Um... who?" Ochako questions.

"Nighteye was All Might's old sidekick! He is a hero who is known for being very very demanding of others as well as himself. His gaze is so harsh that it makes me shiver every time I see him on TV. He looks so serve." Izuku cheered then his face turn into fear when he saw Katsuki's pissed-off face.

"Why the hell?! Would?! He?! Pick?! You?!" Katsuki yelled straight to Izuku's face.

Izuku whimpers as Katsuki tried to lynch him but the other students hold him back from Izuku.

Izuku gasped when he received a text from Toshinori demanding him to go meet him in the teacher lounge. Izuku grabs his bag and his paper. "Sorry, gonna go." Izuku left in a hurry.

"Wait!" Ochako yelled.

"Yeah! Come back here!" Katsuki screamed.

———————————————————————

Izuku excitedly open the door to the teachers' lounge and cheered. "All Might!-" and was met with a kick in the face by Gran Torino.

"Ow!" Izuku screamed.

"All that training! All that training and for what!? For you to lose and not even make it to the top five!" Gran Torino scolds the boy for his failure.

"Go easy on Young Midoriya." Toshinori grabs the defeated Izuku off the ground and places him on a chair.

Izuku puts himself together and asked. "So why did you want to see me? Is it because of Nighteye's internship offer?" Izuku said.

"Nighteye's internship?" Gran Torino turns to Toshinori. "So that's why you call me here."

"Yeah! I couldn't believe he actually picked me! Is there anything I should know about the guy?" Izuku asked Toshinori.

"Not much... because you're not going." Toshinori told Izuku.

"What?!" Both Gran Torino and Izuku yelled.

"Toshinori, don't you want your pupil to improve..." Gran Torino said it in a very concerned voice before switching to a violent one. "after he lost in the Sports Festival!"

"Well, I disagree. I'm not saying that to punish him, though. I have my own reason. I really don't wanna talk to Sir Nighteye." Toshinori told both of them.

"But why?" Izuku asked. "You two always seem very close, well closer than anyone else as you usually never allow sidekicks."

Toshinori is uncomfortable with answering that but Gran Torino gave an abridged version of what happened. "Nighteye and Toshinori had a falling out after his fight with a nasty villain that gave him his injury."

"About what?" Izuku asked for clarification.

"Nighteye wanted Toshinori to retire and pass on One for all to someone else, but he refuse because he wanted to continue to be the Symbol of Peace." Gran Torino explains.

"But now that you choose me, you can rebuild your relationship with him." Izuku's naivety suggests.

"It's not that simple." Toshinori mumbled.

"But why-?" Izuku was cut off by Toshinori.

"It doesn't matter because you're not going." Toshinori told Izuku. He didn't want to tell him the truth, about the previous student he planned to be his successor.

"Then where would I be taking my internship?" Izuku asked.

"Gran Torino can take you. That's why I have him here." Toshinori points to the confused old man.

"Yeah, no." He declines.

"What?" Toshinori spit out blood.

"Look Toshinori. This is a great opportunity for the boy to train under someone else who also understands One for all. He can't keep training under me because he might think of ways to only defeat me, he can't pick up on that bad habit. And besides being incredibly busy with working with police due to Ingenium's incident." Gran Torino explains.

"But-" Toshinori tried to get his argument out but Gran Torino parade Izuku the idea of working with Nighteye.

"You want to work with All Might's sidekick, don't ya boy? Don't ya?" Gran Torino pats Izuku's head.

"Yes! Yes!" Izuku really wanted to.

Toshinori was deadpan as Gran Torino was treating Izuku like a puppy. He slouches and sighs on the couch. "Fine..." Toshinori gave in as the vote was two to one.

"Yeah!" Izuku cheered.

"But!" Toshinori cut short Izuku's celebration. "We have about two days before the due date of your internship paper, is that correct?" Toshinori asked.

"Yes?" Izuku wasn't sure where Toshinori was getting at.

"Good. Turn in that paper and meet me and Gran Torino at UA's backyard forest after school." Toshinori demand.

"Ok." Izuku grabbed his bag and his paper was about to leave before Gran Torino called for his attention.

"Hey, kid!" Gran Torino yelled.

"Yes?-!" Izuku was met with another kick in the face.

Gran Torino chuckles. "That'll teach ya on losing like a chump."

Izuku crawls out of the room and to his classroom.

———————————————————————

"Internship, huh?" Snipe said.

"Yeah. A few students already chose theirs." Shota told Snipe.

"I heard you offer one of your students an internship. I was kinda surprised. They must be pretty special to catch your eyes." Snipe said.

"They're not mine. But one of my students did put in a good word for him, not like I wasn't going to offer him anyway." Shota handed him the paper for the approved internship for Hitoshi Shinso.

"Hitoshi Shinso, huh..." Snipe kinda find it funny that the kid looks like Shota. "I can see why you pick him." Snipe walks off.

Shota went back to reviewing his students' paperwork and was surprised by what Tenya picked for his internship. "Iida only listed one place. That's strange. He must have gotten better offers than this one." Shota look read where the internship will be located at. "A hero agency in Hosu. Don't tell me..." He put the pieces together.

———————————————————————

After the school day ended. Izuku heads straight to the UA Backyard after putting on his UA gym uniform.

"So what's this all about?" He asked.

"Remember what I told you before your match Shinso." Toshinori asked.

"Yeah. There is something I wanna teach you after the whole Sports Festival is finished." Izuku nods as he remembers clearly.

"Good. You see Nighteye is a very serious hero and if he chose you that means he expects you in high regard. If you want to impress him and continue your training with him, we have to fix your biggest flaw." Toshinori told Izuku.

"And that is..." Izuku waited for a question.

"You lack long-range attacks." Toshinori told him.

"But how?" Izuku questions.

"Is this boy retarded?" Gran Torino whispers to Toshinori's ear before speaking to Izuku. "You already know what to do." He said.

"What?" Izuku wasn't understanding before it clicked. He remembered how with his fight with Shoto, his body remained at 15%, however, his toes and fingers went 100% with each attack. "I just need to copy what I did with my match with Shoto!"

"Now you're getting it." Gran Torino chuckles.

"So you want me to break my bones?!" Izuku yelled.

Toshinori chops Izuku on the head. "No, am not saying to break yourself."

Izuku gasp. "You are saying I should use 20% of One for all for a short burst, because if you were continuously putting 100% of your power then everything you do would be destroyed." Izuku put all the pieces together on what he had to do.

"Where was that brain of yours at the time?" Gran Torino joked.

"Easy to say, but you must be able to push past your normal limit in an instant. That requires a higher level of control you've used so far. This means I have a question for you, Young Midoriya. What part of your body do you think you can move with the most precision?" Toshinori asked

Izuku folded his finger to flick.

"That's right. Practice controlling One for All using your fingers for this move."

"One for All: Full Cowling at 15% percent. And then, at the moment of the attack, boost to 20% percent." Izuku flicks his finger and destroys a thin tree. Izuku grunts from the small sting of attack.

"You won't get the hang of it right away, so be sure to keep at it, okay?" Toshinori said.

"Thanks for the advice, sir. I've got it. I know what I have to do now." Izuku said. He looked at his hand. "Once I master controlling my power. I can go beyond, to the next stage!"

"Now." Gran Torino stood in front of Izuku. "For your training, try to hit me with your new attack." He chuckles. "If you can."

"Right!" Izuku positioned himself to flick at Gran Torino.

———————————————————————

The next day at the same location and same time.

"Miss!" Gran Torino bounce off a tree as Izuku tried to shoot him. "Miss, again!" Gran Torino dodges another air bullet.

Izuku sends another air bullet after another as he struggles to hit Gran Torino.

"It's still hard for you to shoot while moving around." Toshinori sees how tired Izuku is. "Let's take a break." Toshinori hands a water bottle to Izuku.

"Thanks." Izuku grabbed the water bottle. "I'm trying to exercise so much more control than I've had to in the past." He looked up to Toshinori and asked. "Is there a trick to it or something that I might be missing?"

"No idea." Toshinori answered truthfully.

Gran Torino grabbed his own water bottle. "Toshinori here was able to use 100% right off the bat."

Toshinori nods. "I can only reiterate the advice I gave you in the beginning. To create an image in your head. The egg, remember?" He reminded Izuku. "Keep working and focus on how it feels when you're successful." Toshinori raises his fist in the air.

Izuku lay down his water bottle and positions himself to shoot as Gran Torino also gets ready.

Izuku focuses his energy. "Even though we both started out Quirkless, there's a huge difference between us. All Might really is a natural-born hero, through and through. There's no doubt about it."

A small flying bot bop out of the forest and was about to hit Toshinori but the man caught it just in time.

A pink-haired woman crawls out of the bushes "Whoopsies! But nice catch!" It was Mei. "Hi, Izuku." She waves at Izuku. "Hi, two old men I have never seen before."

"Hatsume, are you here for my support item?" Izuku asked her.

"Sorry about that." She was talking to Toshinori.

"Don't worry about it." Toshinori handed back her little robot fly.

"Thanks for snagging it! Oh-" Mei turns her attention to Izuku. "About that new item, you asked me for the other day." She handed him a pair of gloves. "I had a baby that could do something similar, so I rejiggered it."

"Wow, that was fast." Izuku commented.

"Yeah, I don't have much to do until the internships start, so I like to think of this as a little warm-up before that." Mei felt proud of her little babies.

"You're the greatest." Izuku said as he got a feel for the gloves.

The fly bot all of a sudden moves with no direction.

"Huh? Where are you going, baby? Wait for Mama!" Mei chased after her fly bot.

"A new item, huh?" Gran Torino inspects the gloves.

"Look pretty good." Toshinori gave a thumbs up.

"Yup. There's something I think could help harness this wind pressure move." Izuku explains the function of the gloves.

"Ah, I see. I tried something like that in the past, too." Toshinori claimed.

"Really?" Both Izuku and Gran Torino were surprised.

"Well, yeah. But it was too bully to be functional, even though it was designed to use with only 20 to 30% percent of my power.it would've been fine if I used mid to long-range attacks for the most part, but since I was more of a short-range brawler, I kept breaking it." Toshinori told them about the support items before transforming into his buff form. "I got rid of the tech and carried on with nothing but my own strapping body!" All Might said before transforming back to his skeleton form. "But support items can be so compact these days, it's crazy." He continues to examine the gear.

"Reinforcing your power with new gear is pretty smart, kid." Gran Torino complimented. "Just make sure you don't rely on it too much. Some people aren't able to hold their own after losing an item." He warns.

"I've seen way too many heroes fall into that trap." Toshinori also warns.

"Right." Izuku understands

"Ok, now let's see how good that thing is." Gran Torino gets ready.

"Got it." Izuku wears the gloves and prepares an air bullet.

—————————————————————————

The next day at the train station, the students left for their internship.

Izuku was worried for Tenya as he know what he was planning but didn't say or do anything to stop him.

—————————————————————————

Izuku stood in front of Nighteye's office with his luggage. He gulps before entering.

"You see Nighteye is a very serious hero and if he chose you that means he expects you in high regard." He remembers what Toshinori said to him and was worried about upsetting Nighteye. He enters the agency to see an older tall, blonde boy waiting for him.

"Hi." The guy cheered.

"H-hi?" Izuku wasn't expecting to see him. "Who are you?" He asked.

"Oh! Am Mirio Togata. I'm a 3rd year from UA." Mirio introduced himself "Which is the same school you go to, isn't that right?"

"Are you here for the internship?" Izuku asked.

"Nah, I actually work here." Mirio explains his place in all this.

"Ok." Izuku just stood there nervously.

"Woah, dude! Are you ok? Take a breath." Mirio was worried for the boy.

"Yeah... just worried." Izuku gulps looking at the stairs that lead to Nighteye's office.

"Try to loosen up! But not too loose, ya know. Cause, uh, Sir's a pretty strict guy." Mirio said.

"I know. That's what am worry about." Izuku started to doubt himself. "Do you think I really have what it takes?" He asked Mirio. Even though he didn't know the guy, he knows since he works here he is someone that Nighteye finds very special.

"Oh, man, that's a toughie." Mirio thinks for a minute. "Why don't you tell me kinda hero you wanna be?" He asked.

"What kind?" He remembers his favorite All Might video about him saving hundred people from a disaster. "I want to save people with a smile, and..." he remembers how concerned his mother was about his Quirk. "I want to be strong so I won't worry people." He remembers Katsuki. "I want to always win and save everybody." He turns to Mirio. "I want to become the greatest. Got it?"

"Wow, that was a lot." He chuckles. "I think you have a chance."

"You mean it?" Izuku smiles.

"Yeah. But before we meet him here are a few tips to help you out." Mirio said.

"Ok." Izuku was ready to hear them.

"Number one, always call him Sir." Mirio said.

"Got it." Izuku took that to note.

"Number two, even though he picks you, you must have him acknowledge you." Mirio suggest.

"Ok." Izuku nods.

"And this is the final and most important tip you gonna follow, ok?" Mirio wanted Izuku's full attention.

"Am listen." Izuku was all ears.

"Y'gotta make him laugh. Then it'll be smooth sailing from there." Mirio said.

Izuku didn't know Sir Nighteye could laugh. "Uh, wait. Hold on. What does that mean?"

"Exactly what it sounds like. He seems stem, but he really values humor for some reason. It's, like, irony or something I think." Mirio started to guide Izuku up the stairs to Sir Nighteye's office. "The most I can do is introduce you to him. I wish I could help more, but that's all I got. From here on, you'll have to figure out how to make Sir acknowledge you."

"I've been meaning to ask. Why is it you seem to listen to me so much, even though we just met a few minutes ago?" Izuku asked.

"Because you got a crazy-ambitious goal and you're fighting to turn it into a reality. And wanting to help out someone who's in trouble is basically Hero-ing 101, am I right?" Mirio said.

Izuku smiles at Mirio's kindness.

Mirio stops and points to a door. "Here we are! He's just beyond this door."

Izuku put on his serious face.

"If you wanna get stronger, then walk on through!" Mirio told Izuku.

"Got it! " Izuku responded.

—————————————————————————

Izuku slams the door open to Sir Nighteye's office.

"Heyo, the first-year dude is here." Mirio said to Sir Nighteye.

"Sir Nighteye's Agency. Let's see what kind of place this is." What Izuku saw horrified him.

He saw Bubble Girl strapped to some sort of tickling machine as Sir Nighteye was watching.

"What kind of place is this?" Izuku yelled.

"See, this is how loud and energetic you can be." Sir Nighteye told Bubble Girl.

Bubble Girl was laughing so much that she could barely breathe. "Stop! Please!" She couldn't take it anymore.

"Mirio, what's going on?" Izuku asked.

"That's his sidekick, Bubble Girl. I guess she didn't make him laugh. Oh, sucks." Mirio told Izuku.

Sir Nighteye turns his head to look at Izuku.

Izuku felt pressure from his gaze. "So this is Sir Nighteye! All Might's former sidekick. Oh, crap, his stare's just as intense in person!" He remembers Mirio's advice. "Number two, even though he picked you, you must have him acknowledge you... Y'gotta makes him laugh. Then it'll be smooth sailing from there."

Izuku looked up into Sir Nighteye's eyes. "I have to become stronger. Others helped me to get to where I am today. But from this moment on, I need to open the doors myself." Izuku fuzzed up his hair. "He wants to laugh? I can do that." Izuku changes his face to resemble All Might's. "To become the number-one hero!" He finally spoke to Sir Nighteye with an All Might voice imitation. "I'm Izuku Midoriya."

"Huh?" Mirio was shocked.

Bubble girl was still laughing due to the machine

"I admired All Might so much that I practiced my impression of him in the mirror for years! I'm not especially good at making people laugh. So if this doesn't work I'm done for!" Izuku was really hoping Sir Nighteye would enjoy this.

"What is this, boy?" Sir Nighteye did not in fact enjoy it. "Are you ridiculing All Might?" He accuses Izuku.

Izuku stands in silence, worried that he failed to impress Sir Nighteye.

"No! He's not funny!" Mirio realizes Izuku's flaw.

—————————————————————————

Meanwhile. Tenya interned with Manual in Hosu City to search for Stain. Speaking of Stain, the hero killer was having a meeting with the League of Villains, but the meeting went south as Stain realized they were nothing more than children who wanted to destroy with no conviction and was warp back to Hosu.

—————————————————————————

Meanwhile, back in Sir Nighteye's agency.

"The nerve." Sir Nighteye was not happy. "What are you doing with your face?" Sir Nighteye asked.

Izuku now knew he screwed things up.

"Is this a joke to you?" Sir Nighteye wanted answers.

"Uh. No, I guess not?" Izuku wanted to choose the right words to defuse the whole situation.

"You attempted this blasphemous excuse of an impression on All Might's former sidekick?" Sir Nighteye examines Izuku's All Might face. "All Might's wrinkles aren't liked this at all. You fool." He commented.

"In his early days, his crows' feet were 0.6 centimeters long. From the Silver Age on they were 0.8. These days, even unlicensed merchandise manages to have the correct wrinkles in the correct era. But you don't even know that much?" Sir Nighteye criticizes Izuku's lack of All Might knowledge.

Izuku looked around Sir Nighteye's room. "Every corner of his office is filled with All Might gear! Ah!" One thing caught his eyes. "The tenth-anniversary poster that was never on sale for the public! I want it!" He looks at Sir Nighteye. "There's no other way to put it. This man is definitely a serious All Might fanboy!"

"This is not good. The internship is over, you can see yourself out." Sir Nighteye turns his back on Izuku.

"The vinegar river incident." What Izuku said stopped Sir Nighteye. "Are you not aware of it, sir?"

Izuku started to talk about the incident. "A middle schooler whose Quirk allowed him to change the properties of water was drowning in a river. But All Might stepped in and saved him. The drowning kid panicked and accidentally turn the river into vinegar. Which ended up getting in All Might's eyes. His face looked slightly different from normal after. That smile. Those narrowed eyes. That's the look I chose to impersonate earlier. "

Sir Nighteye was kinda impressed. "I know this rescue. Although it took place before I teamed up with him. And I believe they mentioned it briefly on the widely-run television specials entitled A Look Back."

Izuku was all excited. "Yes, I love that show! I know there weren't any villains involved, so some people think it was a boring save. I'm sure that's why the fans don't talk about it much, but I really like it for some reason! Honestly, I think the best part of the whole thing is the witty response he gave after being thanked by the kid he rescued!" Izuku started to recite the witty response. "I'm the one who should be thanking you."

"My skin feels ten years younger." Sir Nighteye finished the response.

Izuku started to geek out. "That's it! It was the perfect one-liner!"

"Now I see. You were just testing me." Sir Nighteye accused Izuku.

Izuku panicked. "What? Oh, no! It's just that since All Might is a teacher at my school. I never really get a chance to geek out about him." He calms down. "I maybe got a little excited."

Sir Nighteye fixed his glasses placement. "As I recalled the child's volatile home life was to blame."

"That's right. And that made All Might's actions and words carry even more weight, I bet!" Izuku said.

Mirio was freeing Bubble Girl from the machine.

"Mirio. Who's that? He's loud." Bubble Girl asked.

"An underclassman at my school." Mirio answered. "He totally failed to make Sir laugh. Like, massively. But, I gotta say, I think he's still making a good first impression." Mirio felt proud of his new friend.

"Mirio, can you take Bubble Girl and give me a moment with Midoriya." Sir Nighteye asked nicely.

"Sure!" Mirio dragged Bubble Girl out of the room.

—————————————————————————

Everyone else does well in their internship as in canon.

—————————————————————————

"Do you have your costume?" Sir Nighteye asked.

"Yes." Izuku holds his suitcase containing his suit. "Do you want me to put it on?" He asked.

"Yes, do so." Sir Nighteye said.

He opens his suitcase and sees a manual. "Instructions?" Izuku holds the manual for his new costume.

"Dear Izuku Midoriya. As we made repairs to your costume, our designers decided to make a few changes in regards to materials and appearance. Thank you for understanding. But trust me, it's gonna look a whole lot cooler!"

"Huh?" Izuku put on his costume. "I can't believe the support crew changed stuff around without asking me. I only asked for metal cleats to be added. I guess shouldn't be surprised after seeing Hastume at work. Well, whatever the case. This will be my first run of the new version of my mom's suit." Izuku was ready. "All right. Let's get started." The costume Izuku wear is his costume gamma with the air gloves. It's basically just the costume you see on the cover of the fanfic...

"Hmm." Sir Nighteye was examining Izuku's simple hero costume.

"Uhh." Izuku was nervous.

"This is too bland. The gloves are too bulky. And why do you have a mask that can cover your face, are you planning on hiding it? This does not speak The Next Symbol Of Peace." Sir Nighteye immediately criticizes Izuku's simple costume.

"Since your costume is a complete failure, let's see if you can make it up by answering my question, Izuku." Sir Nighteye wanted Izuku to listen to what he had to say. "What can you contribute to society? What do you hope to gain to be acknowledged by others? You have to answer those questions unequivocally. All Might is acknowledged because he uses power and humor. He gives hope to those who live in fear of criminals. That's why the people were happy to acknowledge him."

Izuku told Sir Nighteye what he wants to gain. "I want to be able to control my power and perform to my fullest. I found a way to control it enough to not injure myself, I call it Full Cowling. And I learned to control the second Quirk also." He was referring to Blackwhip.

"Yes, the one that you showed off at Sports Festival, is that correct?" Sir Nighteye asked

"Yes." Izuku showed off a little of Blackwhip.

"I see." Sir Nighteye decided to ask a question to Izuku. "How did you get this Quirk?"

"Actually funny story." Izuku decided to explain the origin of Blackwhip. "Turns out the previous users' Quirks were also in One for all and it just so happens when I received One for All it was reaching the pinnacle of its power that allow the others Quirks to manifest."

Sir Nighteye seems frustrated. "Midoriya, you can draw up your power in an instant, right?"

"Yes." Izuku answered.

"Can you even do it without thinking?" He asked another question.

"Yes. I can with Full Cowling. I still need to think when I'm using Air Force, which is a technique I recently created that allows me to weaponize compress air pressure into small air bullet with a flick of my finger." Izuku explains.

"Have you performed parallel processing?" Sir Nighteye asked.

"What's that?" Izuku asked.

Sir Nighteye sighs. "I had high expectations for you. Until now."

Izuku gasp.

Sir Nighteye started to tear Izuku. "You have the power to become a symbol, but you're mediocre. Meanwhile, All Might is running out of time. A pity, All Might chose wrong after all. Mirio should have inherited the power."

"What are you talking about?" Izuku didn't know if his ear was playing tricks on him. "Chose wrong after all?"

Sir Nighteye continues. "Don't get me wrong. I do love and respect All Might. But I don't understand why he chose you. How can you succeed him? Could you imagine how powerful Mirio would've been with One for All and the extra Quirks? Imagine how many people he could save."

Izuku gave it a thought. "I guess I never really thought about it, but of course, there were candidates before me. This means Togata was in the running to inherit One for All. Does he know that? How did Nighteye and All Might choose him? Or does All Might even know about any of this. And if so, why didn't he tell me before?" Izuku gasped when he remembers Toshinori's words "It doesn't matter because you're not going." He was trying to protect him.

"I only offer you because I was curious. As I predicted it was just a waste of time. There is a candidate that is far worthier to inherit One for all than you." Sir Nighteye said.

Izuku put his head down.

"But I will give you one more chance to be acknowledged by me. During this week-long internship, you will train hard as you have never trained before, and if I see any lack of improvements you will be force to give Mirio One for All. Do you accept the term?" Sir Nighteye asked.

"One for All can only be transferred through the will of its current user. He's taking me on to make me give up. I'm All Might's chosen successor. But Sir Nighteye doesn't accept that. He believes that Togata should have been selected instead. It makes for an unsettling dynamic. But even so," Izuku finally speak. "I accept the terms. I look forward to working with you."

—————————————————————————

Toshinori was told by Detective Tsukuachi about Nomu's Quirks and how they affected its body, which makes Toshinori worry about the idea that HE is back.

—————————————————————————

On Izuku's 2nd day in Sir Nighteye's agency.

Izuku is seen training with Mirio in the Agency's basement they use for training. Izuku is using Airforce as Mirio phase through or duck or even something even take the air bullet without being fazed.

Izuku gasped as he dodge one of Mirio's attacks but get hurt by a punch. Izuku shrugs it off and continues to try to hit Mirio with Airforce.

"Practice until you can use that Air Force without thinking. Forget about the secondary ability for now." Sir Nighteye said.

"But, Sir. You mentioned parallel processing." Izuku said while still fighting Mirio.

"Everyone does things with parallel processing every day. Subconsciously, that is." Sir Nighteye explains

Mirio spoke. "Yeah! Take me for explain. I active my Quirk in my entire body. Then, I can pass through anything I want or harden myself, with no sweat. When I wanted to go through something like a wall. I have to concentrate really hard. I'll active everything except one leg. Then I release the other leg and land on it. And then the first leg is the last one to go through. Even for a simple action like that, there are a bunch of little steps involved. But now, thanks to Sir Nighteye's training, I learn to do all that subconsciously so I can focus on the fight." Mirio gasped as he almost gets hit with an Air bullet.

Mirio Togata. His Quirk: Density Change. He can increase his density to harden his body and make himself heavier. Can even decrease his density to make himself lighter and give himself more mobility and phrase through anything, which functions the same way as his canon Quirk: Permeation. He controls his density to be see-through. Can also make himself light as air to walk on air.

"Correct. First, you need to be able to do two things at once with concentration. When you master that, add something else." Sir Nighteye explains.

Izuku nods and uses Airforce against Mirio again. "That's right. I'm chasing my dream. Increasing my power as quickly as I can. I'll learn everything there is. One thing at a time. I'll go beyond."

—————————————————————————

On day 3 of the internships, Izuku is still training with Mirio.

The door to the basement slammed open which distract Izuku long enough for Mirio to swoop in and get a clear hit.

"Oof." Izuku said as he fall to the floor.

"Sorry." Mirio helps up the poor Izuku before turning his attention to Sir Nighteye. "Hey, Sir! Are you here to check on how the training is going." Mirio asked.

"No. I'll explain later but just meet me at my car." Sir Nighteye left the room.

—————————————————————————

Izuku and Mirio are outside entering Sir Nighteye's car.

"So are we heading to Hosu?" Mirio asked as Izuku enters the car.

"Hosu?" Izuku was curious about why they were heading there.

"Yeah, we going there with other hero agencies to hunt down the hero killer." Bubble Girl said it so casually.

"The hero killer!?" Izuku said.

"Yes, this is an internship after all. Fighting real villains is the most effective way to grow stronger, isn't that what you want?" Sir Nighteye started the car and drove.

"Yeah... but isn't the hero killer a little tough and dangerous. I still think I need more time to prepare myself" Izuku pointed out.

"You have already been in combat with real villains. Am sure it will work out just fine." Sir Nighteye fixes the position of his glasses.

"Uh." Izuku turn to Mirio to see if he was ok with this and saw Mirio giving an unsure face.

—————————————————————————

Manual finds out why Tenya interned with him and tells him to not let hatred overcome him.

Shigaraki finds Stain to be annoying and decided to release a bunch of Nomus into Hosu city.

—————————————————————————

Meanwhile near Hosu City. As Izuku was minding his own business on his phone, Mirio taps his shoulders.

"Hey, we forgot something! Our hero names!" Mirio said. "We should know each other's, right?"

"Oh, yeah, yeah, totally. I'm Deku!" Izuku said his hero.

"Deku? Like "Deck?" That's weird." Mirio said.

"I like it." Izuku response.

"'Kay, well, I'm Lemillion. For the number of people, I'll save. You know. Can't save 'em all. But I can at least shoot for saving 1,000,000 instead, so that's what I'm doing." Mirio smiles like usual.

"When you put on your costumes and walk through the streets, that's when you become heroes! So don't let your guard down, Deku." Sir Nighteye explains.

"G-got it." Izuku decided to turn his attention to his phone and view his texts to Tenya.

—————————————————————————

"See you tomorrow! (read)"

"Yeah! See you tomorrow, then! (read)"

"Today"

"I'll be at Hosu!! How are things going with you, Iida?

—————————————————————————

"He read the message but didn't reply. I don't think Iida has ever waited more than three minutes to respond to something before." Izuku found that peculiar. "We're here at Hosu." Izuku remembers how back at the train station he tried to have Tenya open up. He wished he had done more.

"Oh no!" Bubble Girl yelled.

"Huh?!" Izuku looked up and gasp.

"A building exploded." Mirio was shocked.

Izuku gasped as he saw a large figure being tossed through the air into a train.

"Seem like we got more things to worry about." Sir Nighteye said as he drove in front of a burning part of the city.

Out of the fire and destruction, a Brain-head Nomu appears. The Nomu was going to take a swipe at an innocent but Mirio swooped in and punched the Nomu in the face.

"Run!" Mirio told the civilian.

All three heroes stand beside Mirio ready to fight the Nomu.

"Keep your cold, newbie." Bubble Girl told Izuku.

"Deku." Sir Nighteye looked at the boy's eyes. "I give you full permission to fight any villains tonight." Sir Nighteye turns his head back to the Nomu.

"T-thank." Izuku was having war flashbacks.

—————————————————————————

Tenya is patrolling the street with Manual. When he sees the fire and destruction, he questions if Stain had anything to do with this but knew the hero killer wouldn't be this flashy. However, he saw this as the perfect opportunity to slip away and search for Stain.

—————————————————————————

Stain saw the smoke and fire from a distance. "That idiot's making a move. And he's so noisy. I'll have to dispose of him later." He turns to a bleeding hero. "At the moment, I have important work to finish here." Stain raises his sword.

The hero Native began to speak. "My body... I-I can't move. You bastard. I'll kill you!"

Stain was angry with those words. "If you call yourself a hero, you should choose your last words with care."

"New Style: Recipro Turbo!" Tenya yelled.

Stain gasp and grunts as kick to the side and push over a few feet.

—————————————————————————

He remembers a few months before the UA entrance exam he was training his Quirk very hard and wanted to know if there was some advice his brother could've given.

"So is there anything I need to learn from you." Tenya asked.

Tensei was looking into some case files. "Woah dude, what's the rush. You still have a long road ahead." He pats Tenya on the head.

"Yes, but if I want to be a successful hero I need to learn everything I can." Tenya was adamant.

"Hmm... well there is this one thing." Tensei scratches. "But you gonna promise me you'll only use this when I give you my blessing! If your body isn't mature enough then it could lead to everlasting consequences!" Tensei warns.

"Yes, sir!" Tenya stood up.

A little bit later.

"Turning my engine?" Tenya tilts his head.

"Yeah. Training is good, but you can also pull your mufflers out. Do it right, and the parts that can take more of a beating will grow back in their place." Tensei explains. "It's a technique passed down from our grandfather so that the Iida family can help more people and do it faster than anyone else. It will be painful, though. And it takes a lot of dedication. But if you want to improve your Quirk, this is the way to do it."

—————————————————————————

On the night of Tenya's hospital visit. Tenya pulls out all his mufflers as he gags himself to not make any noise.

Tenya slowly started to regret it. "I know you didn't give me your blessing, brother, but I will make it up to you."

—————————————————————————

Back in the back alley.

"I've raised Recipro's horsepower and lowered fuel consumption to the minimum! I've already wasted a minute searching for him, which means I have nine minutes! That's more than enough!" Tenya roars his engines.

Stain grunts as he got back up from the devastating attack. "Who are you?" Stain took note of the hero's height. "Are you just a child?"

Tenya grunts as he stares the man down. He decided to ignore the question. "You're carrying blades all over your body and you're wearing a blood-red scarf. You must be the Hero Killer: Stain!" Tenya deduces. "It's you, right? I've been looking for you, but I didn't think I'd find you so soon. I am the brother of an incredible hero! who you attacked. He's the best older brother that anyone could hope for. I have come to stop you because he can't anymore." He remembers his brother's words "I want you to take the name. For me, Tenya."

"You're going to remember my name for as long as you live." Tenya began to yell. "I am Ingenium, and I will defeat you. That, I promise!" He declares.

The stain looked into the helmet eye holes. "Your eyes are searing with vengeance. Be careful what you say next. If need be, even someone your age can be my target." Stain warns.

"Are you saying that I'm not even a threat to you?" Tenya clenches his fists. "You listen to me, criminal.

"Then, so be it. Die." Stain said.

"I can't control it completely. But at this speed, the trade-off is power." Tenya races towards the Hero Killer.

————————————————————————

Meanwhile back with Izuku's internship.

Sir Nighteye threw a small item that knock the Nomu's head back then Mirio grabbed it in mid-air and with his increased height slammed the small item right into the Nomu. The Nomu finally collapse and lay there on the ground.

"What was that?" Izuku asked.

Mirio handed Sir Nighteye his support item. "These are battle support items, high-density personal seals. They weigh about five kilograms each. They go with my business appearance and are quite humorous items, don't you think?" Sir Nighteye answered.

"Come on." Bubble Girl grabbed Izuku to help aid the civilians.

Izuku looks back at the defeated Nomu. "He looks different, but there can't be that many people with brains spilling out. Maybe Nomu's brother? What is he doing in the city? Doesn't seem as strong as the one in the USJ." Izuku gasped as a winged-Nomu came.

Izuku was about to use One for All Full Cowling: Airforce 20% until a big yellow gumdrop punches the creature away.

"Hey, kid! You need to get outta the way!" Fatgum was concerned about the broccoli.

The Winged-Nomu got away.

"Darn." Fatgum was sad.

"Ah, Fatgum you have arrived. Apologize for the meeting not going as planned." Sir Nighteye joked.

"No problem. Speaking of the meeting, wasn't Ryukyu suppose to be here too?" Fatgum scratches his head.

Both heroes jumped when the Brain Nomu got up and tried to take a swipe at them.

————————————————————————

Meanwhile, a Nomu with eyeballs on his expose brain was slammed into a building by Gran Torino.

The Nomu got up and immediately started targeting the civilians.

"A villain! Run!" A man said. "Where are the pros?" He screamed.

Just then a giant claw immobilized The Nomu.

"We're are here!" Ryukyu in her dragon form yelled.

"Oh, freaky." Nejire floats down to examine The Nomu.

"Get away from that!" Ryukyu yelled at Nejiro.

"Huh. Seem like the new and newer generations got it cover." Gran Torino smiles then sulk. "But they did take all the fun away from me."

Endeavor watches from a distance. "Tch." He was angry he doesn't have anything to do.

————————————————————————

Izuku grabbed an injured glasses man and hand him back to his boyfriend. "Where is Iida? He's interning here! Crap, what do I do? Come on, think! How do I be the best possible hero right now?"

"Tenya!" Manual yelled.

Izuku looked at the Pro hero from a distance.

"Where are you, Tenya?" Manual yelled again.

Izuku dodges as Fatgum was thrown through the building by the Brain Nomu.

Izuku watches as Sir Nighteye and Mirio now struggle to take the Brain Nomu. Until Tamaki tried to restrain the Nomu with his tentacle.

"I got it-!" Tamaki didn't get it as he was grabbed by the Winged-Nomu.

The Winged-Nomu was then shot by a circular beam and slammed into a building.

"You ok, Tamaki?" Nejire checks up on Tamaki.

"Yeah, thanks." Tamaki grunts from the pain.

The Brain Nomu threw an oil truck at the heroes which then exploded causing the fire to get more intense, so one of the heroes with a horn pull a fire hydrant to spray water.

"Manual! Stop the fire!" The horn hero demand.

"Yeah! Got it!" Manual rush to the fire hydrant.

"That's Manual. The Normal Hero! Iida's at his agency!" Izuku rushes toward the normal hero.

"Why'd run off by yourself? Where the hell are you, Tenya? Dammit." Manual change the current of the water.

"Wait, he went off alone? Despite what's happening? That doesn't sound like something he'd do." Izuku stood there.

"You're in the way, kid. Get out of here." A heroine said.

"Right. I'm so sorry!" Izuku apologize.

"They seem to get things covered." The heroine points out the Big 3 handling the Brain Nomu. "Evacuate with everyone else."

Tamaki uses his tentacles to restrain the Brain Nomu once more. Mirio jumps up and increasing his density, he slams his fist straight into the Nomu's brain to stun it.

"Coming through!" Nejire unleashes her new super move. "Output Level 100! Nejire Flood!" The attack was point-blank and dug the Brain Nomu a few inches into the ground.

Nejire floats back to see what the attack did to the Brain Nomu. The Brain Nomu then screech as if the attack did nothing before falling over, defeated.

"Nice job. Nejire!" Mirio pats her on the back.

"Thanks." Nejire smiles.

"Were they really men? Or were they actual monsters?" A hero questions.

"I could've used the extra hands!" Manual said as he was extinguishing the fire.

"I can't believe Tenya would run off with such a huge disaster right in front of him." Izuku gasp. "Hosu City... Guys who look like Nomu... Iida... Hosu... Where the Hero Killer attacked... Don't tell me. Don't tell me." Izuku puts the pieces together and without hesitation he active 15% of One for All and rushes to find Iida.

"Where are you going!" Sir Nighteye saw and yelled at Izuku.

"Call the other Pros!" Izuku yelled as he run into the distance.

"What?" Sir Nighteye stood there stunned at why Izuku would want other Pros, but then gasp when he realized why.

————————————————————————

Shigaraki laughs as he watches the destruction from a distance. He remembers how his Master gave him three out of the six completed Nomus as a learning experience.

————————————————————————

Back in the Back alley.

"I can't control it completely. But at this speed, the trade-off is power." Tenya races towards the Hero Killer. "For Tensei!" He yelled.

Tenya lifted his leg and was able to kick the Hero Killer up to the sky.

Stain responded by throwing knives in Tenya's direction. The knife was able to stab into Tenya's back, however, it was the armor that stop it from creating any dangerous penetration. But it did break the skin.

"Ingenium. So you're brothers." Stain landed on the other side of the alleyway. "I let him live so he could spread the good word. Word of me-!" Stain was so busy monologuing that it allowed Tenya to run towards him at blinding speed and get several good punches in.

Stain tried to swing his katana to cut Tenya, but he was only able to manage to take off Tenya's helmet.

Stain fell to the ground and Tenya attempted to grab him, however, Stain immediately got up and kick Tenya in the chin with his spikey cleats making it bleed.

"You're tougher than he was." Stain said.

Tenya was too focused on his injury that when he check on Stain he saw that he vanished.

The stain appears out of the sky and kicks Tenya's shoulder with his spiky shoe injuring it, before slamming his face onto the concrete floor.

Tenya grunts as he stares the man in the face.

"You aren't heroes. You have no right to be called that. Both of you are nothing but fakes." Stain said.

"Shut up, villain. You damaged his spine and paralyzed him from the waist down. He's never gonna be able to work as a pro hero again." Tenya started to explain why his brother was so great. "My brother was incredible. A caring person who saved many lives. Someone people looked up to. You had no right to take that all away from him!" Tenya grunts and screams as Stain stabbed him in the shoulder with his katana.

Tenya remembers how great and humble his brother was, that's why he looked up to him. "He is my hero. My older brother inspired my dream that one day I could be a pro, too!" He clenches his fist. "I won't forgive you. I'll kill you!" He yelled.

"Shouldn't you be worried about saving that guy?" Stain points to the injured Native. "So busy with your grudge you forgot about him. You plan on using your Quirk only for yourself. You're completely blinded by a selfish desire for revenge. You're about as far away from being a hero as I can imagine." Stain criticizes Tenya before revealing one of knife that he stole from Tenya when he swung his katana at him earlier. He licks the blood off it paralyzing the boy. "And that's why you'll die tonight."

"My body... won't move!" Tenya started to panic.

Stain lifted his katana to Tenya's head. "Goodbye, child. May your death bring about a better world."

"No, please! Not like this!" Tenya begs as he had one last flashback of his proud brother. "Say whatever you want to about me! You're still just a criminal who hurt my brother!"

Stain's head drifted when he felt something in the air.

"Detroit Smash Air Force!" Izuku sends multiple air force smashes that hit Stain in various body parts.

Stain was sent flying back.

Izuku stands there guarding Tenya's body.

"Who's there?" Tenya questions. His eyes lift to see Izuku. "Midoriya? How?"

Izuku turns his head to Tenya. "Don't you worry, Iida. I'm gonna save you."

Stain got up and saw Izuku. "It's him. The one from Shigaraki's picture."

"You found him, too? But how?" Tenya questions.

"I saw it on TV. They had some stats about the Hero Killer. Most of his victims were found where there weren't many people. So to find you, I needed to search far away from the panic. In the back alleys of Hosu City." Izuku explains. "Let's go. Back towards the street. The Pros are arriving soon."

"Damn it." Stain thought.

"Ugh. I can't move my body." Tenya told Izuku.

"Huh?" Izuku didn't understand why.

"It must be his Quirk. Since he cut me, I've been paralyzed." Tenya said.

Izuku sighs. "That's the kind of Quirk people on TV said the Hero Killer might have." He turns to Stain. "So cutting somehow activates his power, huh?" Izuku gasps when he notices Native. "There's someone else! If it had just been Iida, I could've picked him up and carried him away myself."

"Midoriya, please! Don't get involved." Tenya begs "This doesn't have anything to do with you!"

Izuku was shocked. "Iida, what are you saying?"

"You showed up to save your friend's life." Stain spoke up. "You even made a big entrance. But I have a duty to kill him and this so-called pro. When your friend chose to fight me, it guaranteed that the weaker of us would be culled." Stain's eyes were intense.

Izuku was scared by those eyes.

"So what will you do?" Stain asked.

Izuku remembers the USJ villains. "He's different from the villains who attacked us before. Those are the eyes of a fanatic." Behind his back, Izuku sends his location to Sir Nighteye. "Even though it was just a guess, and I didn't have any proof, I should've made sure that Sir Nighteye came with me to find him. I'll just have to protect those two who can't move and stall for time... all by myself. Maybe I can even force the Hero Killer to run."

"Listen to me! Stand down. Run away. I told you, this had nothing to do with you." Tenya told Izuku.

"If you really believed that, then why are you trying to become a hero in the first place?!" Izuku yelled. "There are plenty of things I'd like to say, but they'll have to wait. All Might was right, though. Meddling when you don't need to is the essence of being a hero!"

Stain was stunned when Izuku said that.

"Heh." Stain smiles. "There are countless false heroes around here who are all talk, but I think you're worthy of staying alive."

Izuku stood there for a second before attacking. Izuku knew he couldn't play and around and so when he races toward Stain before he could even process and uses 20% for a short burst to go under the Hero Killer and punch him in the groin, stunning the villain.

Stain fights through the pain and turns with his katana in hand to strike Izuku, but the boy vanishes.

"He's gone?" Stain looked up. "No." He saw Izuku.

"A 20%... Detriot... Smash!" Izuku hit Stain right in the face which causes him to fall to the ground.

Izuku landed on the ground. "Did I get him?" Izuku looked up to see Stain slowly getting up. "No!" Izuku uses Blackwhip to restrain Stain and pull him toward him and then let go to perform a double flying kick to his chest for maximum damage.

Izuku stops and then smiles as he sees Stain being unresponsive. Izuku grabs Tenya. "Do you think you could move?" Izuku asked.

"Midoriya..." Tenya grunts.

Izuku gasped as he turn back to see where Stain is supposed to be laying, however, he had vanished.

Izuku looked up to see Stain bouncing across the walls coming straight at him with his katana at hand.

Izuku prepare for the attack but before it, he could punch a red cape that was blocking Izuku's view.

"Heyyo!" Mirio let out a clean kick that not only shatter the Hero Killer's Katana but also push him with enough distance for Sir Nighteye to throw one of the Hyper Density Seals at Stain, finally beating the villain.

"We are here!" Sir Nighteye yelled.

Izuku kept a close eye on Stain's body. "He's gotta be knocked out after all that... Right?" Izuku questions.

Sir Nighteye sighs looking at Stain. "Then, let's restrain him and get him to the street. The other Pros should be arriving soon."

"I'll be taking his weapons." Mirio said.

"Good idea." Sir Nighteye said.

"Damn it... It was my fight. I inherited my brother's name. I'm the one that should've stopped him. The Hero Killer was mine!" Tenya cried.

Sir Nighteye put the pieces on why Tenya is here and immediately tears the boy. "You're Ingenium now? Strange. The Ingenium I knew before never had a look like that on his face. You've got a dark side."

Tenya stopped crying and started questioning. "Can I call myself a hero? My friend protected me, bleed for me." He looks towards Native. "Stain The Hero Killer. I took my brother's name so that I could this a lesson. But I was so consumed with revenge, that I forgot about what really mattered. I was too focused on myself to help anyone else." He remembers when he asked why his brother wanted to be a hero. His brother explains that he just likes helping others in need, but then revealed the real reason is that he's happy that his little brother looked up to him.

"You aren't heroes. You have no right to be called that. Both of you are nothing but fakes." Stain's words echo through Tenya's head.

Tenya whimpers. "You spoke the truth. Hero Killer. He is different from me. I'm immature. I can't hold a candle to him. But still... if I don't take the first step in improving. I'll never be able to be as good as him. I'll never live up to my brother's name!" Tenya slowly started to stand up.

—————————————————————————

A little bit later.

"Native, can you move?" Izuku asked

"Yeah. I think I'm good as new now." Native stands up.

"You sure?" Izuku questions.

"Well, you should still rest after what you've been through." Mirio carries Native.

"Woah! Strong kid." Native commented.

"Kinda convenient that there was a rope in the trash." Bubble Girl commented as she tied up Stain.

"I can drag him from here." Tenya offered.

"I think you have done enough for now." Sir Nighteye stopped him right there.

"I have to apologize. I'm supposed to be a pro, but I was useless back there." Native felt so helpless back there.

"Don't apologize. You did your best. Not everyone can do everything. Especially with his kind of Quirk." Sir Nighteye comforts the hero.

"Tell that to that kid." Native chuckles as he points to Izuku.

"Huh." Izuku looked at Sir Nighteye's eyes. He gasp when Sir Nighteye's eyes were only filled with disappointment.

"We'll talk later." Sir Nighteye walked past the nervous Izuku. "Let's get him to the police." He said about Stain.

"Right." Native agreed.

"I should've expected to see you here, boy." Gran Torino smiles.

"Gran Torino?" Izuku then facepalm. "Oh yeah, he did say something about working with the police on Tensei's case."

"Who's this?" Bubble Girl asked.

"He-" Izuku was cut off by Sir Nighteye.

"He is a friend." Sir Nighteye explains.

"Should've expected to see you too." Gran Torino shakes Sir Nighteye's hand.

"H-hey." Tamaki with Nejire makes their appearance.

"Oh wow, is that the Hero Killer?" Neijre commented as she walk towards the villain.

"Don't touch him." Gran Torino held up his cane to prevent her from getting near the man.

"Where are the other Pros?" Mirio asked.

"They're busy dealing with arresting those three guys. They'll come here once they have a big enough police van to stuff them in." Tamaki answered.

"Am just glad you're not dead." Gran Torino grabbed Izuku's hand. "Now let's hurry and make it to the police station."

"Around the corner!"

"Who's that?" Izuku asked.

A group of random Pros and Endeavor with his son and sidekicks finally arrive.

"We were told there was a request for help here, but..." A blonde hero with a blue bandanna stops speaking.

"Children?" A red mask hero saw Izuku and Tenya.

"Those injuries look bad." Burnin commented.

"I'll call an ambulance immediately." Kido pulled out his phone.

"The Hero Killer..." Endeavor pushes through the crowd of Pros to see the body of Stain

"No way." Onima was stunned.

"What?" Shoto who was in the very back of the crowd also push through the crow just like his father to get a better look.

"I'll get the police on the line." A white hair Pro said.

——————————————————————

A little bit later.

"Are you ok?" Shoto asked Izuku.

"Yeah. But, Iida..." Just then Iida was right next to Izuku.

"Izuku... You could've been killed because of me. I'm truly sorry. I was just so angry. I couldn't see anything else." Tenya cried.

"I'm sorry too, Iida. You were going through so much by yourself. But I couldn't tell anything was wrong. Even though I'm your friend." Izuku apologize.

Tenya whimpers but then Nejire pats his head. "Hey, get some rest now."

"Ok." Tenya wipes his tears away.

A flap of heavy wings could be heard in a distance.

Gran Torino look up and saw the Winged-Nomu. "Get down!" He yelled.

Everyone gasped.

"Oh no!" A Pro Heroine with a red neck scarf yelled.

The Winged-Nomu grabbed Izuku and began to fly away with him.

"Hey! Let's go!" Izuku begged.

"Midoriya!" Sir Nighteye, Gran Torino, Iida, and Shoto yelled.

"I got it!" Endeavor yelled. He melt the concrete wall to scale up it and when he jumped he create an Ignited Arrow to shoot at the Winged-Nomu's eye, defeating it.

"Huh?" Endeavor felt some extra weight on his back.

It was Stain. Stain jumped off Endeavor's back and landed on the descending Winged-Nomu. "The word "hero" had lost all meaning in this society." He stabbed the Winged-Nomu in the other eye. "The world is overrun by fakes and criminals like you who chase pretty dreams." The Winged-Nomu crash into the ground. "You must all be purged."

Izuku gasped in fear of Stain. Native gasp in fear.

"That idiot's making a move. And he's so noisy." Native remembers what Stain said earlier.

Stain sighs. "Everything that I do..." He pulls his knife from the dead Nomu. "...is to create a stronger society."

Everyone was stunned when Stain saved Izuku.

Shigaraki watches from afar. Angry that Stain killed one of his Nomu and that Izuku is here for some reason.

"Did he just save that kid?" Kido questions.

"He took a hostage, you idiot!" Endeavor ready up another Ignited Arrow.

Stain pants. "Endeavor." He turns his head to the Pro.

"Hero Killer!" Endeavor smiles as he finally has something to do.

"Wait, Todoroki!" Gran Torino yelled at Endeavor.

"Huh?" Endeavor stopped what he was doing.

Stain growls as he gets up. His mask falls off his face.

Izuku grunts as he stares at the man and then gasps in horror.

"You false hero." Stain said with such disdain.

Everyone froze in time due to the fear Stain presented.

"I'll make this right." Stain declare. "These streets must run with the blood of hypocrites. Hero! I will reclaim that word!" He stomps his feet on the ground. "Come on! Just try and stop me, you fakes!" He yelled that all the Pros, even Endeavor, took a step back. "There is only one man I'll let kill me. He is a true hero. All Might is worthy!" He yelled with conviction that everyone fall over or didn't move a muscle.

Izuku sees his arm slowly rising ready to flick Airforce. "The past user..." He recognizes that this is the same thing that happened in his match with Hitoshi. The Air Force was unleashed and hit Stain in the back of the head.

Everyone was snapped out of the trance.

Gran Torino gasped then sighs in relief.

Endeavor looked at the unconscious Stain laying on the floor. "I think... he's out cold."

Everyone sighs and took a breather to process what had just happened. They're all grateful just to be alive.
