"Well, well, looks like you do have some bite after all"

Izuku narrowed his eyes as the figure of the number two pro-hero Endeavour came into view as he exited the tunnel "What do you want, Endeavour?" Izuku questioned trying to keep his anger from influencing his action.

The flame-covered face twisted into something unreadable. The pro looked at the hero in training as if to examine him, he then spoke. "I am here to sweeten the deal that I had offered you earlier, I like that fire that you displayed young man." Izuku moved to speak but was stopped by the raising of a hand. "Before you say no, I believe that this is an opportunity for you... And or one of your classmates." Izuku looked at the hero confused. "To be brief, I was only going to mentor my son but that can be changed. If you or another student of your choosing is willing then I will open my doors to you or them. In exchange I want you to do everything possible to beat... No, crush Shoto's spirit. No matter what that boy thinks of me he needs to learn to use the tools available to him." Endeavour finished. "If you really are someone who takes after All Might then you are the only one I can hopefully ask for this."

Izuku was ready to tell the pro off, deny his request, and win for his and Todoroki's good. Now however he was having doubts that were the best course of action, so he took the time to think it over. The more he thought about the best course of action the same answer came back. "Fine... I'll do it, that is if you are willing to mentor Momo Yaoyorozu from 1A as well."

"The creation Quirk girl?" Endeavour asked, getting a nod from Izuku. "I am sure that other pros would want to throw their hats in as well. I don't see her taking my offer even if I did file a request." he said plainly. "But I do have to ask, why her?"

"Well to be frank with you, something happened recently that was out of our control that made her lose confidence in herself, I have been helping her through it but... There is little I can do from my end. I thought that working with someone who had something similar happened to them, but I still see it in her eyes" Izuku paused looking down. "I don't want to be someone's security blanket if I can help it."

"So this is a scratch my back, and I will scratch yours type situation... Fine by me, if you keep your end of the bargain then I will do the same. So just the two of you then?" Endeavour asked.

"Wait what? I never said that I wanted..."

"Oh?" Endeavor seemed almost amused. "You are now my child's rival and a student favored by All Might, not to mention a recommendation student like those two. It would be out of character if I settle for just two of them. Out of the five of you, three are in 1A after all."

Izuku was in the waiting room provided by the venue for the participants to prepare for each round when he heard a knock at the door. After a couple taps, he answered the person knocking. "Come in..."

The door slightly opened and Momo peaked her head in nervously. When she noticed that Izuku was looking at her curiously she let out a short breath of relief before letting her nerves take over again. "How are you?"

The question took Izuku off guard, he had taken no damage from his fight with Iida, a quick examination of himself later he answered her. "I am okay... I think." The hesitation was noticed. "I was just about to go back, if you need the room I'll be out of your hair in a moment." With that said Izuku started packing up. Momo watched him put his hero notebook back into his school bag before he made his way to the entrance that she was still standing in front of. As Izuku was about to leave Momo stepped in front of him blocking him from leaving. "What's up?" Izuku asked, confused.

"I'm sorry… but I can't let you leave Izuku." Momo began. "You were acting weird out there, it was almost like you were angry, but not at Iida. Did something happen between you and Todoroki?" Her pensive question was asked with her nervousness clear to anyone paying attention.

Izuku took a minute to gather his thoughts, he didn't want to expose the deal he had made with the number two hero, and he could not betray All Might's trust and let the One for All secret fly so he looked at the situation at hand and came up with something that was both true and dodged the situation, although he hated the fact that this was a form of lying. He had no other choice, so he spoke of something close to the truth. "Ah… No. I-I-I… we are not fighting or anything if that's what you are thinking." Izuku paused to think of his approach. "He challenged me, he brought my parents into it, things were said." a cold distant look came across his face as he spoke.

Not wanting to put Izuku into a worse mood she changed the subject choosing to focus on her match she asked Izuku for advice for the upcoming bout with their classmate Tokoyami and his Quirk Dark Shadow, but a graceful exit eluded her. "So... Uhhh... There was one more thing that I wanted to speak to you about."

"Oh what about." Izuku spoke, taking the hint.

Momo played with the zipper of her jacket nervously, unable to look Izuku in the eye. Although it took her some time she finally spoke. "I need your advice on how to handle my fight with Tokoyami, I mean if you know how I could take him down, anything that could lend a hand is appreciated."

Izuku took a moment to think it over before he went back to where he was sitting, pulling out a notebook, and pulling a chair for her to sit on. Momo, not being told, sat next to him as flipped through the notebook labeled 'Hero Analysis for the Future No. 14', this one looked far newer than the ones she had read being on No. 7 herself. She found some of the earlier entries cute as they were mostly in crayon and for the most part disorganized, but she loved reading them regardless. If this was on the 14th that would mean he had started a new one after entering UA. It finally dawned on her that if he was searching through the notebook for something that would help him give advice to a classmate wouldn't that mean that she was in the Hero analysis herself. Her cheeks became bright red as she wondered what he had written and if he had drawn her in her hero costume feeling mild embarrassment mostly due to the Inner side boob that the window of said costume created.

He finished flipping through landing on the page that had the information he needed, taking a deep breath he began by asking a simple question. "Can you make flash or stun grenades?"

Izuku was sitting in the school's infirmary as Recovery Girl outfitted his repaired right arm with a sling. The frown never left her face but only once since he had regained consciousness, and that was to reassure Momo that the boy's injuries would not hinder him at least not enough to be worried, but that was then and this is now. For the first time since his surgery they were alone and the lecture she had planned for after he nearly destroyed his body with this Quirk of his, but looking at the footage she realized there was a semblance of control and the boy was in no real danger that was out of his lack of control. That was what frustrated the elderly woman most. "Next time you want to play hero and move past your limits, you better have a good excuse for it and a shovel ready." She pauses, grabbing the arm in the sling by the wrist causing Izuku to flinch in pain. "Because today would have been the last day I would have healed you... Do I make myself clear?" she tightens her grip.

"Crystal."

"Good..." She grabbed candy from her lab coat placing it in the boy's free hand. "These should keep you awake long enough to return to the festival for the award ceremony if you want to return. Although you should be getting your rest and going home, I assume that is not an option, is it?" Izuku's body language told her everything she needed to confirm. "Honestly, it's like this Quirk attracts hard-headed idiots. I will be back with Toshinori, he is going to drive you back." She finishes walking out of the room. "Get your things together in the meantime, you shouldn't get in much trouble in the next couple of days until I see you again. I even told your little girlfriend to make sure you get your rest." She said, disappearing and turning the corner after exiting, leaving Izuku a stuttering mess.

It took some time for Izuku to recover, but he did make sure everything was in order. He placed his school bag at his side waiting for his mentor and the school nurse to return. A couple minutes later there was a knock at the door, confused he answered. "Come in." The words came off as pensive and guarded.

A blonde woman in a black suit with a black mini skirt and glasses carrying two shopping bags in each hand entered the room, stopping in front of him mock posing to appeal to him in the process. "I heard that you haven't had anything to eat, so I thought we could eat lunch together. If that's ok with you?" she spoke leaning in giving him quite the view of her cleavage emphasized by the top three buttons of her shirt undone.

"Uhhh... Who are you?" Izuku questioned the woman while fighting and failing to hide his embarrassment as his cheeks began to darken from the stimulation.
