After rousing a still pale-faced All Might, the group made their way to Gym Gamma at Nezu's suggestion.
"So how is it possible that you're here Master?" A still very confused All Might asked.
"Ah I knew I was forgetting something." Nana smiled and snapped her fingers. "Like I said before, OFA evolved. It didn't just store the previous holder's quirks but a part of them as well. I feel much more tangible than before also, although it seems I can't touch anything.." She said as she tried to poke Toshi, her finger disappearing into his chest.
"Anyways!" Nana said dismissively. "Onto quirks! Let's start with mine since it's the coolest. My quirk was called Float, it let me do just that. It was only basic levitation at first, after OFA it was more like flight although not very fast. Just try and focus on the feeling of being free, nothing able to hold you down. " She said, closing her eyes, reminiscing.
"O-Okay, here goes nothing I guess." Izuku said, closing eyes to focus.
He tried to picture himself soaring among clouds, lazily running his fingers through them. He could feel his feet begin to leave the ground.
'It's working!' He thought. He tried to move a bit more and immediately launched upwards at breakneck speed followed by a *BOOM* as he burst through the skylight and broke the sound barrier.
In his panic he disengaged Float and began to fall. He flailed and screamed, "AHHHHHHH!"
As he neared the roof of the building the now inflated All Might jumped up and caught him, landing safely through the now broken skylight.
Once back on the ground he turned to Nana who was laughing as Inko was trying to swat at her with her purse. "Y-You knew that would happen!" Izuku exclaimed.
"Ya but now it doesn't seem as scary right?" She challenged.
"W-Well I guess not but you could have told me to wear a helmet at least.." Izuku groused.
"Psh! Builds character. Anyway, Float is not only much more powerful, it seems to shield you from most of the wind resistance."
"Now that you mention it I didn't feel much wind resistance even though I'm pretty sure I broke the sound barrier." Izuku half muttered with his chin in his hand.
"No more stunts like that!" Inko said, raising her voice.
"Fine, fine, can't have any fun." Nana grumbled playfully. "Let's get this show on the road! The Sixth will take over while I go slap the bitch out of the Second and Third."
The second Nana disappeared, a man with black hair and a high collared coat appeared where she had been.
"I am the Sixth, En. My Quirk was Smokescreen, it allowed me to produce clouds of smoke from my body, it was a double edged sword however as it blocked my vision as well. Though I suspect that may no longer be the case. Try it out, feel it build up before releasing it." En said.
Izuku focused trying to narrow down the feeling of Smokescreen, there were a few others chomping at the bit to be let out but he managed to focus on the one. He felt it build for a second before releasing the sensation.
A black smoke exploded from his body filling the entire gym and completely obscuring his vision. 'Wait, I can see something' he thought.
Through the smoke he could see everyone except En, they glowed orange and grew lighter in color on their extremities. He was amazed at the level of detail he could see, he could make out their faces perfectly!
"Woah, I can see you all! It's thermal vision!" He exclaimed excitedly.
Nezu pressed a button on his tablet and the fans kicked on, clearing out the smoke.
"Unless someone has a very cold body temperature or can block their heat signature somehow, Smokescreen essentially has no downsides now. ..Except for blinding your allies of course." En said. "Now it's the Fifth's turn."
En disappeared and a large bald man wearing goggles and a lot of leather appeared.
"A fellow person of culture I see." Midnight said, gesturing to her dominatrix outfit, followed by her wife and partner quickly swatting her on the arms.
The man looked like he had been slapped across the face. "Motorcycles! I ride-rode Motorcycles!" The Sixth said.
"Motorcycles," Midnight air quoted not believing the man.
Shaking his head in defeat, the man turned to Izuku, "I'm Daigoro Banjo the Fifth and MY quirk is the coolest! It's called Blackwhip-
"HA! KNEW IT!" Midnight crowed victoriously, cutting off Banjo.
"Ugh, is she always like this?" Banjo asked Izuku, gesturing with his thumb to Nemuri.
"You'll get used to it…or so I'm told." Izuku said with an almost haunted look in his eyes.
Banjo threw Midnight a glare. "AS I WAS SAYING, Blackwhip allowed me to launch out tendrils that I could trap villains with or use to move around. It's connected to your subconscious so it has a semi-sentience, if your emotions are out of control, so is it. It's also way more powerful now so be careful."
Izuku focused on the feeling from earlier that wished for action, he carefully let it out. An inky black tendril coated in a green, barely luminescent energy emerged from his palm. It was slow at first, slowly wriggling out longer and longer until Izuku had the errant thought of 'I wonder how many of these I can make?'
As if in answer, countless tendrils sprang to life as he began to resemble an eldritch being. Izuku was worried at first but the tendrils remained calm. 'Hmm, go back to one and stab the floor,' he tried mentally commanding it. The tendrils immediately reduced to one and jabbed deep into the concrete floor.
'Ooh what about shapes! Make claws on my fingers,' Izuku mentally commanded again. Black tendrils enveloped all ten of his fingers creating long claws, he could feel them like they were his own fingers. He bent down and slashed at the concrete, they went through it like butter, carving deep furrows.
"What did I say! Coolest quirk ever!" Banjo exclaimed. "It seems to be much easier to control, and being able to make shapes like that is definitely new."
"Ya!" Izuku agreed. "I could also feel with them when they were like that!" Izuku said releasing Blackwhip.
"Ohohoho, your future partners are in for a treat!" Midnight said teasingly, causing Izuku to go bright red with the implications.
Anan and Inko slapped their wife on the arms again, causing her to grumble under her breath, "never have any fun."
"Uuugh, I do not envy you kid." Banjo groaned. "The Fourth will take over now." He said as he vanished.
Next to appear was a massive man as tall as All Might with medium length blonde hair and a scar that looked to be from a claw.
"I am the Fourth, Hikage Shinomori. My Quirk is called Danger Sense. It would warn me of any potential threats to my person, even intent to harm or negative emotions after I received OFA. It could cause sensory overload and was more painful the higher the threat. Reaction time also plays into effectivene-"
Hikage was cut off by Nezu throwing a pen at the back of Izuku's head, Izuku felt a light nudge as to the direction and time slowed. He could still see Hikage's mouth moving in slow motion as he spun around only to see Blackwhip swatting the pen out of the air.
"ness…..but I believe that it now dilates your perception of time and has interactions with the other quirks.." Hikage finished weakly.
Banjo reappeared. "BLACKWHIP. .EVER." he said and promptly disappeared again.
"My, that is certainly a useful quirk Midoriya, how painful was it?" Nezu queried without a hint of remorse.
"Uhhhh, It wasn't painful at all actually, it felt like a subtle nod to which direction the threat came from." Izuku stated after giving Nezu an incredulous expression.
"Count yourself lucky then Ninth, that quirk gave me chronic anxiety to the point I left civilization behind entirely." Hikage finished before disappearing without another word.
"Good, I don't think I can handle any more anxiety..." Izuku muttered quietly.
Nana appeared after a few seconds, holding two figures under each arm in schoolyard headlocks.
She released one, "Now act your age children."
The first to speak up was a man with blonde hair in a ponytail and a piece of fabric covering his hairline. "Fine…I'm the Third, my quirk is called Empathy. You already saw the effects earlier, though when I had it I could only sense other people's emotions, not influence them. Test out its limits on range and number of targets." He said reluctantly, and without any fanfare he disappeared.
The other figure finally squirmed his way out of Nana's grasp. He was the spitting image of Bakugou, only older. He pointed a finger in Nana's face. "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" he shouted point blank.
'Yup, got to be related to Bakugou.' Izuku thought.
The man spun and his rage fell off his face, "I've seen your memories and if that brat is related to me you have my express permission to slap the shit out of him." The man said.
'Traitor!' Izuku declared his tongue.
"You are no hero, child. You do not deserve this power you have been given. What will you do when faced with a villain too dangerous to be left alive? Spare them, only for them to kill again?"
The man challenged.
"You've seen my memories so you know I earned this power with blood and sweat and I will continue to earn it. As for killing a villain, I know that it can be unavoidable, even All Might was forced to kill All For One. I can only try to be ready if a situation like that arises for me as well." Izuku replied with as much conviction as he could about killing someone.
The man stared at him for what felt like minutes before nodding. "Very well, but make no mistake, that day will come ready or not."
Izuku could only nod in response.
"I am the Second, my quirk is called Cell Activation. It can be used to increase regeneration, recovery time, and even permanently improve overall physical condition. It used to be activated by touch, usable on myself or others but it drains stamina fast. Now however it seems to be tied to OFA's power instead of your stamina and is passively always active on yourself." The Second blew out a breath. "Aaaand it seems to have latched onto your original quirk Evolution, you can freely evolve others' quirks now. But heed my words boy, do not go handing that power out to people unless you trust them with your life." The Second warned as he vanished.
"What a lovely gentleman.." Inko said, words dripping with sarcasm.
"Welp, see ya around kid and remember. I'm allllllways watching." Nana said, pointing to her eyes as she began to slowly disappear.
"Oh and Toshi" she said, her face softening with maternal love, "I'm so proud of you."
All Might deflated, spurting a small amount of blood, then tears began slowly trailing down All Might's face, "Thank you… Mother." He said quietly as Nana disappeared.
Izuku could sense the relief and love radiating off the man in waves. He slowly approached his mentor and hugged him while simultaneously activating Cell Activation and Evolution.
They stayed that way for a minute before Toshinori broke the hug. "Thank you my boy, I feel much better, but I don't think I'm fully healed yet and I don't think Evolution will work for me since I'm only using leftovers of a quirk now and I was originally quirkless."
"You were quirkless and you had the nerve to dash our boy's dreams?" Inko said with quiet anger.
Anan and Nemuri were quick to pull her into a hug. "Now, now he already apologized and corrected his mistake Inko, no need to beat a dead All Might." Anan said soothingly.
Toshinori looked down, ashamed. "I am sorry my boy, I've never been more wrong."
Izuku was quick to reassure Toshinori, "I forgave you a long time ago All Might, I know you only had my safety in mind."
A new figure coalesced. This time it was a white haired, too-thin man. "Hello Ninth. I am the first, Yoichi Shigaraki and unfortunate brother to AFO. Your quirk was exactly what was needed to finally finish OFA, and you're lucky it did the way it did. Normally having multiple quirks reduces your lifespan by about half. - "
Everyone, namely Izuku's Moms, gasped.
"MY BABY!" Inko wailed as she began to fountain tears.
Yoichi continued unabated, " - becauuse when your quirk interacted with OFA it didn't just complete it and evolve its stored quirks. It combined all of the quirks into one multi faceted quirk. The quirks may interact in yet unforeseen ways. Your lifespan will not be cut short, in fact Cell Activation may prolong it." Yoichi reassured much to Inko's relief.
"Well that's a relief" Izuku breathed out the breath he was holding.
"Remember Ninth, this power is yours." Yoichi said as he disappeared.
Anan walked up to Izuku and ruffled his hair, while producing a notebook. "I wrote down everything they said."
Izuku threw himself into their arms, hugging them. "I love you Mom."
Izuku activated Evolution. Who could he trust more than his Moms? The orange ringing their eyes blazed like a dying sun. "Did you just evolve my quirk?" They asked, looking down. He just nodded in answer.
"Well I can normally only fully use my quirk with my suit on but let's try just one finger at a time." Thirteen pointed their index finger out to the gym and activated Blackhole.
The suction came to life sulking up loose debri on the floor, they added another finger, and another until they had all ten fingers pointed forward with Blackhole activated. A previously impossible feat.
"Only one thing left to test.." Anan said, bring Blachole back down to one finger and pointed it closer to their leg.
"NO, DON'T ANAN!" Nemuri cried out knowing exactly what they were thinking.
Nothing happened, Thirteen's jeans fluttered a bit but that was it. "Cool." They said simply.
Nemuri marched up to her Partner and pouted while jutting her hip out. "You could have been seriously hurt! Again!"
"Again!?" Izuku yelled in surprise.
"When my quirk first manifested it tore up my leg pretty badly…BUT good news is I seem to be immune to my own quirk now!" Anan said, slightly ashamed.
Izuku, pinched the bridge of his brow, he worried about how much of a space case his Mom was sometimes.
"Well your turn Mama" Izuku said as he hugged Nemuri with Evolution active. Her eyes glowed purple before he released her.
Nemuri kissed Izuku on the forehead before moving away from the group. "Nezu turn on the fans please." She started pumping out her quirk. A thick cloud of pink enveloped her but didn't move towards the vents. "Nezu, did you turn on the fans?" She questioned, confused.
"Fascinating…try willing it to move" Nezu said in a way of answer.
Nemuri raising an eyebrow did as asked. The pink cloud moved around in circles around her, expanded, and condensed until it was a liquid on the floor.
"Whoa! I can control it telekinetically now! Wow, that will be so useful outside, or places with good ventilation, or against someone waving an arm hard enough!" Nemuri rambled excitedly.
Anan nudged Izuku, "you're not the only quirk nerd."
"I heard that!" Nemuri pouted.
Izuku turned to Recovery Girl who had been oddly quiet the entire time to find her half asleep resting against her syringe cane. He walked closer, "I'm s-sorry Recovery Girl, you must be wanting to go home."
"Ah it's ok boy, had to make sure I was here if ya got hurt." She said, smiling tiredly.
Izuku crouched down and brought her into a gentle hug activating both Cell Activation and Evolution. Her eyes glowed faintly and she stood up straighter. "I feel ten years younger!"
"Now.." Izuku said, turning to Nezu. "If you decide to overthrow the Earth, please spare my loved ones." He reached out a glowing hand which Nezu took immediately. His eyes glowed with otherworldly power.
…then the cackling began. After about five minutes of fearing he had just created the first eldritch god Nezu quieted and straightened his tie. "I have been such a fool! No security cameras outside the front gates and beyond, blind spots in the sports arena, and so much more! I have many things to improve." Nezu finished dangerously.
"...Well I guess all there's left to do is try out the strength enhancement." Izuku thought aloud. "All Might, how do you activate it?"
Toshinori buffed up into his muscle form. "Squeeze your buttcheeks together and yell SMASH from the bottom of your heart!" All Might 'explained'.
Izuku positioned himself facing the far wall. 'Well here goes nothing' he thought as he squeezed his buttcheeks together and yelled. "SMAAA-"
Danger Sense nudged heavily in every direction and time slowed to a crawl.
Nana popped into existence. "STOOOOP!" she yelled surprisingly not in slow motion. He cut the power to OFA.
Nana whirled on All Might. "What were you thinking!? 'Clench your buttcheeks' what the hell kind of advice is that!" Nana admonished.
"Kid, OFA is way more powerful than when ol' meat head over here had it." She said pointing a thumb to a thoroughly ashamed All Might.
"Try a tiny amount, and work up from there." Nana actually instructed.
Izuku focused on the unending ocean of power that was One For All, he tried using only a small portion, what he assumed to be five percent and punched.
A gust of wind followed the punch, within the confines of the building it was enough to burst the remaining sky lights.
"Woah…that was only about five percent and my arm still ended up hurting" he said, but before he could finish Cell Activation healed the minor tears in his arm's muscles.
"Nevermind, Cell Activation already healed it….wait a minute. Doesn't that mean I can put on muscle practically instantly.." Izuku said, having a revelation.
"Now you're cooking with Neurons!" Nana replied, flexing her massive biceps as she disappeared.
"Just don't over do it sweetheart, I signed you up for a martial arts gym. We're going to meet your trainer tomorrow." His Mother said.
