"Come on! Izu, come on!" Mina shouted as she raced out the door to the playground. Izuku trailed after her, a small smile on his face as he watched her run around.

It had been a couple of months since that "moment" when Izuku had been teetering on the edge of despair before Mina came rushing in and pulled him back from that.

The two became even more inseparable, promising each other that they will always be there for one another no matter what. They supported one another during their training under the heroes Gunhead and Disco, with Gunhead teaching them the basics of self defense while Disco took over their exercises. The Dancing Discharge heroine even went as far as teach them basic breakdancing moves, much to their delight.

They were not alone, as their parents joined in on a few sessions or used the equipment within the gym/agency. Kokoro was more than happen to point out to a blushing Inko all of the attention she was gaining whenever they worked out.

Then came the dreaded day, returning to school after a month-long break*. Much like how Kokoro predicted, the other children found out about Izuku's quirkless nature and began to openly mock him.

Izuku would not be cowed by their attempts, not when he had worked so hard with Mina, Gunhead, and Disco.

"I'll be a hero. I already am one!"

"Tch, and what kind of hero are you then?"

"Mina's hero! I won't back down from you or anyone else!" Izuku stood up to the class as they mocked him. Mina stood right behind him with her own frown as she glared at them.

"Yeah, right. Watch this!" The heavy-set boy with wings attempted to push Izuku to the ground, only to fall flat on his face as Izuku avoided the push with ease. The jeering children fell silent, surprised looks on their faces as the boy sat with a teary eye and held his nose. He blinked as a tissue was held out to him, Mina giving him a look of concern.

"Heroes don't make fun of people. Only villains do that," she said simply, causing most of the kids to look away with some shame. The boy smacked the hand away with scorn, getting up and running off while shouting nonsense.

The months that followed were tense for the two, but they slowly got used to being ignored by a majority of the kids in their class, with only a few ever speaking to them in a friendly manner. Thanks to the training the duo had received from bonafide heroes, they managed to stand up for themselves.

Mina had long gotten use to the gray of her skin, and thought the white hair looked pretty once she got use to it. Her horns had grown quite quickly, and forming into such an odd shape, looking like gnarled hooks that Mina thought looked pretty cool. She began to enjoy her appearance rather than shun it, causing the old joyful self to appear once more, much to Izuku's delight.

"I'm coming!" Izuku called in glee, racing after her as the made their way to Mina's home. They had training to get to after all, and they never once missed a session in the months that followed their induction into the course. They turn the corner only to pause in surprise as they saw a familiar sight.

"So pretty!" One of the female students who surrounded the bonafide hero in their midst. Both Mina and Izuku recognized said hero as she stood with a smile on her face as she spotted them.

"Hey Midoriya! Ashido! Come on!" Disco called out, surprising the children with her shout.

"Wait? She knows the Quirkless and Gray girl?"

"Quiet stupid, do you want the teachers to get on us again."

"Wow, I didn't know Midoriya and Ashido knew heroes personally."

"Oh please,they are both hero geeks."

Both children quickly made their way towards her, beaming with smiles and bags in hand.

"I see you two already have your work out clothes! Come on we have about a twenty minute walk to the agency… Or I can make it a minute or two if you are willing for a ride?"

"YEAH!" The kids cried out in unison with arms raised.

"Are you two excited?" the two kids nodded excitedly and quickly climbed onto her back and held on tightly. Once Disco felt comfortable in her grip of the cute duo, she gave a wide grin as she popped her neck.

"Hold on tight kiddos!" Disco said as she began jogging quickly in place. Both Mina and Izuku could hear a hum of energy coming from Disco, they could actually feel the energy coursing through her body, and short arcs curving off from her skin that gave a feeling of pure power. Both Izuku and Mina knew of Disco's quirk, Momentum Charge, and how she used it as a heroine. She demonstrated for them several times, using it as both as an ranged fighter and body enhancer. She even showed the duo a secret Super Move that can only be used in certain areas, which she called Ballroom Twister, something that she tried after seeing a cranky old senior hero used to beat down a villain one time some years ago. Izuku had estimated that her quirk boosted her speed and strength to the levels of those with natural strength-enhancing quirks, if only for a short time. He made such a guess after seeing Disco lift a car that was pinning a fellow hero underneath it after a particular nasty villain.

"Ready!" Disco announced with glee.

"Set!" Izuku held on as best he could, a large smile on his face as he looked to Mina.

"GO GO!" Mina cheered before the world seem to blur as Disco launched herself to the nearest light pole and soon to the rooftops. Both kids laughing as she quickly made her way through the city, leaping over the heads of various pedestrians and vendors. Disco kept her grip on the kids as she leaped onto one building then another, finally reaching wall that was too high for her to jump up safely.

So she simply ran up the wall.

It was a feat that Disco was proud of, mostly because she wasn't making craters in said wall as she race up it, unlike a certain Number 2 hero she could mention whenever he did it. The amount of strength and speed she needed to perform such a feat was a balancing act just by herself, with two passengers it was that much harder, but she enjoyed every moment of it. They cleared the wall and raced across the roof to the other side before Disco leap off toward a water tower, jumping her way down to the streets below.

For the kids it was similar to a rollercoaster ride, with all the twisting and sharp turns that cause their stomachs to flip-flop and made them feel light headed, but it was so much fun!

"Last stop, Gunhead Agency!" Disco announced as she leaped off the roof, twisting in midair, giving both kids a sense of vertigo as the world spin around them before landing on the ground without so much of a rough jostle to themselves.

"Awesome!" Mina cried out in joy, laughing as Disco let them slip down to the ground and fell onto the floor with little grace. "Whoa!"

"Careful Mina." Izuku said, his legs shaking as he tried to stand up correctly before finally finding his center. Mina gave a single nod before jumping up to her feet, swaying somewhat as she did so.

"That was fun!" Mina cheered, with Izuku joining in celebration. Disco chuckled a bit as she gave them a bright smile before she felt a chill race up her spine, causing her to shiver. She slowly turned back to see a very annoyed Inko Midoriya standing at the entrance, tapping her foot and her arms were crossed, although she couldn't help but notice that she also look like she was about to cry as well.

"Uh oh! Mama Inko looks mad." Mina said quietly, then grin as she lightly pat Disco's leg and began to drag Izuku behind her. "It was nice knowing you, big Sis!"

"Hey!" Disco shouted in shock at the betrayal, both kids happily greet the greenette, allowing themselves be fussed over for a moment before heading inside. The glare returned as she set her sights back on Disco. "C-crap…"

Disco swallow and walk up to the waiting greenette, waiting to get reprimanded for her casual endangerment of her children.

Instead…

"D-disco! How c-could you do such a thing! You all c-could of gotten hurt!" Inko started with a tears running down her eyes. Disco lower her head in shame, she would of taken an angry outburst any time but a blubbering Inko Midoriya was too much for her to handle. Inko was emotional, almost absurdly so, and Izuku was even more so.

"Hey Midori? What you crying for?" Disco asked as she walked up to the boy as he rested from training, his face stuck in a book on animals. She faltered as he looked up to Disco with tears running down his cheeks.

"Snakes don't have any arms, Disco…!"

"I know you are a hero and do this kind of thing all the time when you save some people!" Inko sniff as she wipe her eyes, "And I know you were holding onto them tightly but please be more careful with them" before much more could be said, a familiar horned woman came up behind Inko.

"Oh boy, the tears." Kokoro gave a small smile as she walk up to Inko and pulled out a small towel from her fanny pack, gently wiping Inko's cheeks. "Are you sure you and Izuku don't have a tear related quirk? I swear the two of you can fill a kiddie pool if you guys watch a sad movie."

"Kokoro…" Inko mumbled with bright pink cheeks as her friend clean her face.

"Seriously though, you are very emotional woman, Inko. Hope that guy you been chatting up likes waterfalls because I am sure he going to need to wear a raincoat once you guys start going out." Kokoro teased, causing Inko to freeze up and turn to look at her best friend in horror.

"Oh?" Inko swallowed as she turn to see Disco looming over with a big grin. Inko was fearful of this, which is why she only recently told Kokoro about the man she was talking to on the dating app Disco was talking about a couple of weeks ago. Disco was a romantic at heart, and tend pursue it with gusto once she got it in her head that some people were perfect for one another.

Mina seem to be following her footsteps, much to Inko's dismay.

"O-oh! Its nothing!" Inko tried to wave it off as she look back to Kokoro "I mean, we are upset with Disco, Koko? She-"

"She picked the kids up at school and brought them here, hero style." Kokoro cross her arms with a big grin. "I know about that. I trust her, plus it will give the kids some insight on what to do when they need to move on the rooftops."

"Koko!"

"What? I know for awhile, Inko. Besides, stop changing the subject."

"B-but-!?" Inko froze as she heard the dreaded sounds of Disco behind her.

"The cute little Inko is dating now, is she?"

"N-no! We haven't seen each other yet-?!" Inko covered her mouth, Kokoro laughed as Disco wrap an arm around Inko's shoulders.

"So who is the lucky guy? Girl?" Disco prodded the red cheeks of Inko, a large grin. "Details!"

"I been to that chat room you were talking about… met someone and we been talking a lot."

"So what's his name?"

"Oh...um… Toshinori Yagi." Inko poked her fingers together, face as red as a stop sign. "He was kind of surprised that someone was talking to him at all! B-but we only been talking, but… I like talking to him. He makes me feel like I can say anything and he wouldn't judge me."

"So…" Kokoro grin became larger "When are you going out to date?"

"Soonish… maybe? We are both so busy!" Inko pinched her lower lip as she began to mumble. "I started working at the hospital again, and then there is the fact that he works for a hero agency. So we both been really busy, but… I am interested."

"Heh…" Disco began to pat Inko's back, "You should be fine! Look at you! You are young and fit, you are practically a maiden!"

"I don't know… I haven't told him about Izuku yet…" Inko muttered out loud, causing both women to shake their heads at this.

"I'm sure he will love the guy once he meets him." Disco then nudged Inko. "You said he works for a hero agency, that will give him a foot in the door with little Izu."

"Oh dear, if they do meet, I have to make sure that Izuku doesn't bring up his job. I don't think anyone wants to talk about their job when it comes with dealing with heroes… He said he was annoyed at all the paperwork he has to deal with from the heroes, even though it paid well." Inko suddenly look less sure than before, only to cough lightly as Disco patted her back.

"Don't sweat it, Inko. Izuku is pretty smart for his age…" Disco then turn to the side with a worried look. "Maybe a little too smart. There was that day he mess with the sound system for the entire agency."

"Playing Daft Punk's Superhero for a couple of hours was a bit much." Kokoro agreed, while Inko could only covered her face in embarrassment.

"Speaking of, I better get in there and start on their warm up." Disco said as she gave Inko a warm hug before running inside. "Have fun girls!"

Disco waved to several of her coworkers as she made her way to her own little slice of heaven in the agency. She could already hear some music blaring from within, and she soon recognized the lyrics beings sung.

~See the big gold chain that I'm rockin'

I got the ring for the bling, not a problem~

'Ah, Wonderland. A classic choice kids!' Disco was a sucker for old school music, people in high school used to call her Disco just for her love for the old music she could be found listening to.

She smiled at the fond memories as she walked into the training room, watching as the two fuzzy hair students stretch in unison. The two were deep into the stretches, their eyes closed as they listen to the music. Disco was just happy they enjoyed a majority of her music, which was a very wide range of genres. The only thing that neither of them liked was the hardcore rock music, and those had to be the ones that sound like there was nothing but harsh screaming that was literally incoherent to anyone else.

She had exactly one of those songs, if only for the shocked look on people's faces whenever it came on when she played her player on random.

Mina was wearing a loose tie-dye t-shirt with a pair of leggings and running sneakers, while Izuku was wearing a plain white t-shirt and loose baggy shorts with large and heavy looking shoes on. For reasons that was unknown to Disco, whenever Izuku wore a particular shirt that had writing on the front, it was always… wrong in describing it.

Today it said 'Plaid shirt'.

Weird kid. A good one… but weird.

"Alright kids, almost ready?" Disco asked as she stretched her arms over her head, interlocking her fingers, and tilted to the side for a moment before switching to the otherside.

"Almost!" Mina said with a happy smile, then frown as another old song came on. "Why do you always play this old people music Disco?"

"H-hey!"

"Hey Mina, it's not okay to make fun of Old Disco like that." Izuku commented idly with wink, that caused Mina to giggle silently.

"Yeah!" Disco agreed, before a frown morphed on her face. "Hey wait a minute."

The sound of shrieking laughter could be heard as the Dancing Hero chased after the duo.

+++==Several Minutes later==+++

Izuku was happy.

Everyday he got to be with his friend, he got to hang out with heroes, he got some training for self-defense for future hero training, things were going great!

They were in the final minutes of their stretching when he looked towards Mina, who gave a relieved grunt as she raised her arms above her head and gave a good stretch to get all the kinks out. He frown as her sleeves of her shirt slip down to her shoulder and saw a flash of color. He blinked in confusion, watching as Mina lower her arm and gave him a bright smile.

"What's up?"

"Oh, nothing. Just thought I saw something."

"Alright kiddos! First thing is we are going to go through some toprock, shuffles, step-touch, and finally close it off with some 6-steps." Disco announced, the children looking up with pure focus as they listen to their teacher. They began to sweat as Disco leaned down at them, a sinister smile on her face. "But first, payback for leaving me with Inko."

Both Izuku and Mina swallow as Disco crossed her arm and gave them a task.

"The first to yield will have to wear clown makeup for the rest of the day, the day of my choosing!" Disco pointed at the two. "Now, lets see which one of you will submit in a TICKLE FIGHT!"

"Eh?" Mina tilted her head in confusion, only to yelp as she was suddenly grabbed and taken to the floor. "Izu! Traitor!"

"There are no sides in a TICKLE FIGHT! TAKE THIS!" Izuku cried as he began to attack in earnest, MIna shrieking as Izuku began to tickle her mercilessly.

"N-No fair!" Mina laughed, struggling to get the upper hand but failing to do so. Izuku was always better at finding her ticklish spots. "S-stop it Izu!"

"Do you give up?"

"No!"

"Then pay with your laughter!" Izuku and Mina rolled around on the mat, with Disco looking on with a large smile on her face as Izuku aimed for Mina's most ticklish spot, her armpit. The loose t-shirt betrayed her as it slip down to her shoulder once more, and Izuku attack with earnest as he pulled the sleeve open and began to tickle with gusto. He blinked as he saw a flash of color on his friend skin, and now that he was a lot closer, he began to notice small odd coloration with her hair. He stop tickling and slowly pull the shirt open further, with Disco frowning at the action as she began to make her way towards the duo.

"Izu?" Mina looked at him with confusion as he stared at her armpit, a slight flush look as he stared at it with an intense look.

"Greenbean?"

"Pink." Izuku announced, causing both females to blink at him, utterly loss on what that meant. Izuku can see it now though, a blotch of pink lay in his gray friends armpit, it was small but still it contrasted greatly compared to the rest of Mina's body.

"You're pink." Izuku said flatly to the confused Ashido who was trying to get out of his grip.

"Pink? Where?"

"Under your arm. See?" Izuku pointed out, Mina frown before grabbing the hem of her shirt to take it off to see better.

"WHOA NOW!" Disco yelped as she held Mina's arm down to keep her from stripping in front of the boy. While she was sure they bathed together before, she didn't want to explain to either parents why Mina was topless in public area. "Let me see."

"I want to see!" Mina pouted but remain still as their mentor kneeled down next to the girl to see Izuku's discovery.

"Oh wow, look at that." Disco confirmed that Mina indeed had a pink underarm. She took out her phone and took a picture while Mina bounced with impatience, she wanted to see too. "See."

"Oh!" Mina looked at the picture with fascination, right there in the middle of the armpit was a bright pink spot the size of a 100 yen coin. "What a pretty color! Do I have more?"

Disco stopped Mina from stripping once again, much to her frustration. The girl had no sense of shame really, she was five, so that was to be expected. She decided it would be better that she called their parents in for this new development.

"Greensprout, keep an eye on Mina," She lean in close to him to tell him something in private. "Make sure she doesn't start undressing, no need to make your parents angry."

"Yes Ma'am!" Izuku nodded his head.

"Mina, don't get undress."

"Aw." Mina pouted as Disco walked out of the room, heading towards the main gym area to find the parents of her two proteges. She found them in the weight training area, Inko puffing away as she struggle to bring up a 15-pound dumbell at eye level.

"Come on Inko! Just a few more reps and you will finish the set!" Kokoro encouraged Inko loudly, while the poor woman look like she was close to passing out from how red her face was…

Or cry. Most likely the latter if Disco was betting on her chances.

"W-w-why do you have to yell at me?" Before she could receive an answer Disco took the dumbbells out of the greenette's hands.

"You guys might want to check this out." Disco said grabbing both their hands and leading them into the dance room.

"Di-disco what's this about?!" Kokoro asked as she and Inko were almost dragged across the gym with how quick Disco was walking.

"I think Mina's quirk is coming in now." Disco said, causing both mothers' to gasp and quickly tried to match her pace. When they came into the dance room, to find Izuku staring at Mina's barefoot with a bright grin on his face, while Mina was happily laughing as the boy ran a finger up and down it.

"So my foot is pink too?"

"Yup!"

"Okay, maybe we check elsewhere? Maybe I should take off my shorts?"

"NO NO!" Disco waved her arms wildly, startling both kids in surprised. "No stripping! Wait till you're older!"

"Um… Disco, what's going on?" Inko said as she made her way to Izuku, checking him over with concern.

"Mom! Mina is turning pink!" Izuku said with a level of excitement only a 5 year old can muster.

"Excuse me?!"

"Uh huh!" Mina raised her foot to show the mothers the pink splotch on the bottom of her foot. "See!"

"Mina…" Kokoro stared at the pink blotch with confusion, and some relief. "Come on, let's see if there are more. Okay?"

"Izuku, stay here and practice while we take Mina to the bathroom, can you do that." Inko asked Izuku, who gave her a single nod.

"Yes Momma."

===++Some time later++===

"Not only that but a few more pink dots were under her ear, neck, stomach and even some under her stark white hair which seems to be changing color." Kokoro said to her husband as they drove back to their neighborhood. He gotten a call from his wife and immediately left work to see his daughter, with the staff understanding the situation after months of seeing the man depressed and blaming himself for his daughter's predicament.

"Daddy! I'm changing colors like you!" Mina exclaimed from her seat. "It's a pretty pink too!"

"Is that right, Princess? I think you look better in pink than I do." The man gave his daughter a small wink, who only giggled in response. She sighed happily as she look out the van window as they made their way through the neighborhood.

"So…" Kokoro turn to Tamoyo, her voice low as she look in the mirror to look at their daughter. "What do you think?"

"Good chance that it may be an offshoot of my quirk. It's still too early to tell." The man whispered. "For now, let's just keep an eye on her. Usually if I turn that pink, its of high acid concentration. So… maybe we should get in touch with the insurance agency just to give them a heads up."

While both parents were whispering plans of future disasters that their daughter might cause, said little girl was just happy that she was no longer going to be the same shade rainy clouds.

"No more grey, changing just like Momma said.… just like a butter-fry"

===++Several weeks later ++===

Mina's pinkification was fast, much faster than when she was slowly losing color to the grey. By the end of the first week since the discovery, she was mostly pink with only small parts of her lower back still being grey. The only thing left was her hair, which took time as the roots began to change her hair color to a similar shade to her skin. Her parents said it will take a few weeks for her hair to be fully pink, once she gotten the proper haircuts and all.

The bullying almost universally stopped for Mina, which surprised her greatly at this new change, but it also reveal a lot about the kids in her class. The boys and girls who had made fun of Mina's grey skin now quickly sought to sort themselves as friends to her, they would say words of honey to try to befriend her now that she was no longer grey.

"Wow Mina, you look so pretty today! You should come to my house later!" Said one girl to her one morning before class. The same girl who had tripped her in the mud and called her a mistake.

"Whoa Mina, your skins so cool! Want to come to come to my house later on today? We can watch movies!" One boy asked her in the morning. The same boy who touched her horn and caused the whole 'Bloody Horn incident', the same boy who previously spoke behind her back about how much of a bloody freak she was.

When some of the nicer kids tried to trade items in lunch, she would remember how the others pushed her so her lunch would spill on the ground. There was a few of the kids that was nice to her, even during her grey period, and those were the same ones that gave Izuku a chance too. She had no problem talking to those kids, and even confide with them that she saw them as her real friends, because they saw her for her.

Not because she was pink now.

Mina knew all of these former bullies tricks and declined each offer they made, after all they still went after Izuku and would actually try and pry her away from him but alas her friendship with him was strong and soon enough they would be out of the kindergarten and into their first year in elementary school!

"Mina?"

"Hm? Izu? What is it?" Mina blinked as Izuku looked at her with worry.

"Are you okay?"

"I feel great?" Mina cheered, but that only seem to cause the frown on Izuku's face to deepen. "Why?"

"You are… smokey?" Izuku tried to describe what he was seeing. There seem to be some sort of smoke coming off of Mina, and for once he was at a loss on what to do.

"Smokey? What do you mean?" Mina look at herself, but was unsure what to see. "Wait… was that hole in my shirt always there?"

"Come on, let's go see the nur-OW!" Izuku had grabbed Mina's hand, gently tugging at it so he can guide Mina to see the nurse, only to pull his hand back as it felt like it was on fire.

"Izu!" Mina froze at the sight of the slightly red palms of her best friend, who seem to be staring at it with shock before he began to mutter to himself. His eyes widen as he turn to Mina, seeing her clothes began to have holes appearing right before his eyes.

"Mina! Water!" Izuku quickly pointed to the fountain.

"What?!"

"Get in the water! You're quirk is acid… or something! Your clothes!" Izuku wildly pointed at the fountain with urgency. He remembered all the times Uncle Tamoyo told him about his job, how water helped out a lot whenever he need to wash off all the acid from his hands or body. That it will dilute to the point where people can touch him safely.

"O-okay!" Mina quickly raced to the fountain, doing her best not to run into any other kids that were there before jumping into it with a large splash, shocking most of the kids around them at her action.

"What the-?!

"Was that Ashido? Why did she do that?"

"Why does her clothes have a bunch of holes in them?"

Mina felt like crying from how embarrassing it all was, but the fact that Izuku told her to do with great urgency, she listened and did it without a second thought.

"Ms Ashido! What is the meaning of this!" she flinched as she turn to see her teacher walking up to her with a stern look. "Get out of there this instant!"

"She can't!" Izuku stood before her, his arms raised as if to protect her. "Her quirk is activating. I… I think its acid."

"Oh!" The man seem surprised at this, but slowly nodded his head as he took a second look at the state of her clothes. "Then good thinking, Mr Midoriya. I will inform your parents of the situation, Ms Ashido. Mr Midoriya, if you can stay with her while I get the nurse. The rest of you, inside now, you still have class."

Mina pouted as she sat in the fountain, Izuku gently telling her to get under the falling water so she wouldn't burn off her clothes.

She finally got rid of the grey, and now this.

She was one messed up butter-fry.
