"Daddy, I don't want to do this," Yuki said sheepishly.

"What do you mean?"

"I want to go back to the woods," Yuka mumbled in agreement.

"We can't go back to the woods, if we go back to the woods we get found and they take us back to the facility," Izuku explained.

"But—"

"You don't have to talk to anyone. We'll just go straight up to our room, besides, it's not like everyone here is gonna be a total stranger," Izuku assured them.

"Ocha, Setsu, and Kyo are here?" Eri asked.

"Yeah, they're here. Now come on, it's late and you five need sleep."


Izuku sighed as he plopped down on a couch in the common room. It took a few seconds, but he soon realized that several eyes were currently on him.

"What?"

A boy with black hair and large elbows answered first, "So, um, metal arm, little girls. Explain please?"

Izuku held up his left hand, "Rather not talk about this. But the girls are my daughters."

"Bro, you're horny," a boy with yellow hair said.

"Adopted, not biological," Izuku explained.

"Oh, sorry," the yellow-haired boy apologized.

"It's fine. We have class in the morning, so I suggest you all go get some sleep." Izuku stood up and left the common room, sparing a passing wave at Setsuna before he did.


"Good morning to you all, I'm your homeroom teacher, Shouta Aizawa," a scruffy looking man with long black hair greeted them a few minutes after their class was supposed to start.

"Sir, this class was supposed to start five minutes ago! Where were you?" The blue haired boy from the entrance exam asked.

"Sleeping. Now, your first class is heroics, taught by All Might." As the class began to murmur, Shouta stepped into a large yellow sleeping bag and pulled it over his body, "You're costumes are in the locker room, go suit up." And with that, Shouta zipped up the sleeping bag and flopped over, already asleep.


"Hey dude."

Izuku looked up to see the blonde boy from last night staring down at him.

"Yeah?" Izuku asked.

"I just want to make sure I didn't upset you last night. Name's Denki Kaminari," he said, outstretching his hand.

"Izuku Midoriya," the green-haired boy shook his hand, "And you're good. I'll admit I've got a pretty strange life."

"So, um, is that really what you're going with for your hero costume?" Denki asked, he was wearing a black leather jacket over a simple white t-shirt.

"Keeping it simple," Izuku answered, he was wearing a pair of grey sweatpants and black boots, he had also decided to go shirtless.

"Don't really have a counter argument here," Denki shrugged.


"Now you're looking like heroes!" All Might yelled, "Before I explain what we will be doing today, I want you all to take a slip of paper from this box!"

Izuku stepped up and pulled a slip of paper out with a large bold F on it. He gave All Might a confused look but backed off for the next person.

"Father, do we have to be here for this?" Sayori asked.

"Would you rather stay in the dorms alone?"

"No." The five of them said in unison.

"Don't worry, when Izuku isn't here we'll be watching you," Ochako smiled.

The brown haired girl wore a pink and black body suit, a pink visor sat on her head, shielding her face, and her outfit also had a pair of thick pink boots that almost came up to her knees.

Setsuna was also wearing a body suit, dark blue in color and covered in a scale like pattern, she wore a blue domino mask, and a pair of fingerless gloves of the same color.

Kyouka was wearing a pale pink shirt under a leather jacket, she had a pair of jeans tucked into her boots and headphones sat around her neck.

"PLEASE FIND THE OTHER PERSON WITH THE LETTER YOU WERE GIVEN!" All Might shouted over the chatter.

"Hey, Midoriya, looks like we're working together!" Denki grinned as he approached Izuku with his fist out.

Izuku looked down at Denki's fist and hit it with his own, unfortunately for him, Izuku used his metal hand.

As Denki flailed his hand around to sooth the pain, All Might reached down and pulled two balls out of a box.

"First up we have hero team E versus villain team F!" All Might announced.

Izuku looked over to the left, team E was composed of Rikkido and Eijirou. Rikkido wore a bright yellow spandex suit that covered everything except his mouth, he also wore a pair of white gloves and boots. Eijirou wore a pair of baggy black pants and nothing else, all he had on his torso were what looked to be small red tires, resting on his shoulders.

"The Villain team will hide out on one floor with a bomb, it's the hero teams job to capture them. The hero team can win one of two ways, simply touching the bomb, or wrapping both villains in capture tape, which I will give you before the match starts. The villain team simply have to last five minutes without them, or their bomb being captured, or they can win by incapacitating both heroes. Everyone clear?"

All Might was met with a chorus of 'yes' and his smile grew wider, "Excellent, Villain team, you will have about ten minutes to prepare!"


"I honestly have no clue how we're gonna take down either of them, they're both walking tanks," Kaminari said, panicked.

"I've got a few ideas," Izuku told his partner.

Strewn about the room were several random items: wooden planks, shot put balls, a tool box, and a bucket full of water.

Izuku walked over to the bucket and splattered its contents against the entrance, "You take Kirishima, I'll take Satou."

"Oh, I getcha!" Denki grinned.

It took a few minutes, but soon the hero team came bursting into the room, Eijirou grinned as his skin became sharp and rock like, and Rikkido downed a small canister of white powder.

"Don't think I'm gonna go easy on you just because you've got a metal arm," Rikkido taunted as the two squared up, "...er, wait."

Izuku yelled as he charged forward and gave a swift uppercut to Rikkido, knocking his head upwards, but he remained unfazed.


"Yeah! Kick his ass Dad!" Chihaya cheered from the viewing area.

"Chihaya!" Ochako scolded.

"Where did she— Setsuna!" Kyouka turned to the green haired girl who awkwardly chuckled in response.


"I'm real sorry about this bro," Denki told Eijirou.

"For what?" Eijirou questioned as he watched Denki slammed his hands against the floor.

Eijirou looked down and finally noticed the puddle that he was standing in before looking back up at his yellow haired friend, "Oh, oh I'm fucked aren't I?"

"Yeah, again, sorry!" Denki flashed brightly with yellow electricity and the floor sparked with him, Eijirou yelled in pain and quickly succumbed to unconsciousness.

Satou hit Izuku with a right hook, then a left, before grabbing Izuku by his neck and delivering three swift punches to his face.

Izuku stumbled back and panted, wiping a stray bit of blood from his nose and grinning as red gleaned over his green eyes. He roared through his teeth and delivered a wild haymaker to Satou's face, sending him flying against a wall.

"VILLAIN TEAM WINS!" All Might screamed over the loudspeaker.

Pushing his rage deep down, Izuku ran over to Satou and began lightly tapping against his face, "Satou, Satou." When he saw the brown-haired boy crack his eyes open, he pulled out his claws and held them up, "How many claws do you see?"

"Uh, seven and a half?" Satou answered.

"Close enough, come on." Izuku wrapped one of Satou's arms around his shoulders and lifted him up, watching Denki do the same for Eijirou.

In the viewing area, Katsuki wore a mighty scowl, replaying the fight over and over in his head. Something about seeing Izuku back, and fighting like that, it made him angry, like he was trying to show off.

Once Izuku was back, Katsuki placed a hand on his shoulder and whispered, "The bridge, midnight."

Izuku sighed, he knew exactly what Katsuki wanted from him.
