The rest of Izumi's day after the quirk tests has passed quick enough. They had met the rest of their teachers for the first time and Present Mic, a man with a loud voice and louder personality had actually had them all introduce themselves, along with their quirk.

It was a good opportunity for her to put names to faces and to learn what people would be capable of here. When she had her own turn, everyone had been surprised by her response.

"Well, if you want to get technical, I don't have a quirk." She'd said, rubbing the back of her neck and waiting for the surprised mummering to die down. "You see, I….. I used to be quirkless, as Bakugou can attest to."

Said blonde just grunted, but nodded to confirm she was telling the truth, which had everyone wide eyed.

"I…. I admit, looking back on it going into a shady questionable experiment as a test subject was not the best idea me or my mom ever had but, alas, it's what happened. Now I have what I can only describe as a Bio-Engineered quirk. It destroyed my ability to possess any other quirk, but gave me full control over my biological form. Apparently I'm what happens if you get to the end of natural human evolution, I have no idea If that's true or not."

Everyone had just been stunned into silence at that, Present Mic just looking at her with eyes of complete befuddlement. Giggling, she started making her way back to her seat.

Before she got all the way though, she did address them once more.

"If you want to keep it simple, imagine a somewhat weaker All Might could shapeshift and you have me."

She'd be a liar if she said she didn't absolutely love he looks of 'Oh shit' that crossed people's faces whenever she revealed that.

"Hey! Midori! Wait up!" Uraraka called out, getting the greenette to turn in surprise. She'd been walking down the path home, school having finished.

Turning she saw Iida and the brunnette catching up to her, making her grin. "Oh, hey guys. Sorry, did you want to walk with me?"

"You are going to the station, right?" The blue haired inquired while Uraraka caught her breathe. "We are both going their as well, mind if we accompany you?"

"Not at all, but I was actually about to wait here for a couple minutes. There's someone I'm waiting on." She explained, and her two new classmates shrugged.

"Well, the trains will be a while anyways so we can wait." Uraraka said with a grin. "Say, I've been meaning to ask by the way. What's the deal with you and that Bakugou dude, you seem like you know him."

"Unfortunately yeah. He's an asshole." She said with a sigh, and when she saw Iida go to scold her she raised a hand. "I mean it. He was pretty much the whole reason I hate most of my childhood. Ok not the whole reason but 85% of it. I'm pretty sure he believes whole heartedly that because I was quirkless I was less than human."

"That's…. that's horrible."

"That's Bakugou."

Before they could continue down that branch of conversation, the tall raven haired teen Izumi has gotten into a miniature competition with approached, a bashful look on her face.

"Oh, hello Momo." Iida greeted first, and the girl nodded.

"Hello you three. Midoriya… I just want to apologize for earlier." She said, clasping her hands together. Confused, Midoriya raised a brow and she sighed. "I believe I may have given off the wrong impression in the exam. I didn't mean to seem competitive, I just saw the production aspect of your power and wanted to see what else you were capable of."

"Eh, it's fine." The greenette grinned, giving her a thumbs up. "No harm done, right? And hey, I had fun."

"W-well as long as that's cleared up." The taller girl said with a smile. Before she could say anything, a second interruption came along with a shout.

A shout that instantly had Izumi grinning from ear to ear.

"Hey sis!" Kendou's voice rand clear, and the greenette twirled around immediately, seeing her friend hurrying along with some green haired girl. Her eyes glinted, then she saw the mischievous gleam in red head's eyes and she grimaced.

Time for their usual game.

"Wait Kendou don-"

Too late, the taller teen ran forward and jumped in the air, Izumi instinctively diving forward and grabbing the girl bridal style, twirling her around for a moment. After a minute the two settled, everyone staring at them confused and Midoriya just shot her 'Sister' an unamused look.

"One of these days, I'm just gonna let you fall." She threated and the taller teen giggled, getting back on her feet, not caring about the stares she was getting.

"No you won't. You'd never let me get hurt like that." Kendou teased, sticking her tongue out and Izumi rolled her eyes, pulling her into a tight hug.

"I hate when you're right."

"Um… So, Midori…. Gonna introduce us?" Uraraka asked, getting both their attention. The two turned with a grin, and Midoriya cleared her throat.

"Right, well… Kendou here is basically my adopted sister. She's a pain in the ass."

"HEY!"

"But I love her." Izumi finished with a grin, ducking under a near hit from the taller girl. "Too slow! Anyways, Kendou this is Iida and Mom, and I believe I've already told you about Uraraka."

She saw a grin split onto her sisters face and she quickly hit her in the arm, light enough that it wouldn't hurt.

"Don't even think about it."

"Aw come on."

"Seriously, anyways what about your friend?" The shapeshifter asked and Kendou laughed, walking over the green haired girl who waved at them. Her hair was a darker shade than Izumi's and she reminded the 1-A students of Asui, the frog girl in their class, just in a much more human body.

"I'm Setsuna Tokage, from 1-B! Nice to meet ya all." The girl introduced, waving at them all. Her grin turned teasing as she looked to Izmui. "And it's nice to meet the girl Kendou wouldn't shut up about~"

"T-Tokage!" Kendou hissed, face turning redder as Izumi turned to her sister with a grin of her own.

"Oh?"

"Yeah. Clearly she looks up to her sister, if the way she goes on about you is any indication." The 1-B girl cackled, as Kendou continued to blush.

"Shut up!"

"No no, please continue." The shapeshifter laughed, leaning in. However instead of continuing the two just laughed, before Izumi wrapped her arms around her sisters waist. "Thanks though. Now, I think we should all start making our way to the station. Don't want to miss the train."

With that, the group set off, talking amongst themselves. As they walked, Yaoyorouzu eventually spoke up.

"It will be quite interesting to see how a train ride differs. Never been transported in anything other than a limousine before."

The creation girl completely failed to note the several shocked looks she got at that.

Eventually though, they managed to shake the shock off and continue and Izumi couldn't help but wonder what would be next.

What would All Might's position at the school involve, if he was a teacher? Would she find out soon.

Oh well, whatever it was, as long as she didn't have to deal with Bakugou during that class she would probably enjoy it.

If there was one thing Izumi should have learned by now never to do, it was to get her hopes up.

It always went badly for her. She had found out what All Might's position was as they had his class in the middle of the day, just after lunch. He would be teaching what essentially amounted to Hero 101.

That was awesome. It meant Midoriya, and in her own class Kendou could continue to be trained by the blonde even while at school. What was less awesome was that the first lesson was combat training.

And her opponent was Katsuki Bakugou, who had weirdly been late to the class despite leaving with everyone at the same time. The implication that he'd snuck off at some point was obvious but she honestly had no idea what for and she wasn't going to use her heat vision to spy on the boys changing for no good reason.

Letting out a sigh, she turned to her partner, Uraraka and at least smiled that she'd have a helping hand on her side.

Of course, physically she didn't need it. More than once since she'd gotten her powers, she'd made an example out of Bakugou when he inevitably blew up at her. She could end him in an instant if she really wanted to.

Still, putting up with the bullshit that streamed from mouth was a different story. Somehow even with her enhanced vitality she still got exhausted easily listening to him and his tirades.

Shaking her head, she walked up to her partner while sizing up the building, Prototype mind set taking over.

'Six floors, abandoned. No civilians, naturally. Hostiles, two, hidden inside with a destructive weapon. Danger to self: Low. Danger to others: High. Assessment…. No holds barred, 100% power.'

Her thoughts were almost robotic, having learned what to look out for during her years as a vigilante. She'd made a few mistakes in not assessing such factors before, though fortunately she was always able to account for them using her powers but now it gave her the ability to turn this exercise up on it's head.

"Uraraka?"

"Huh? What is it, Midori?" The brunnete asked, titling her head. The greenette grinned, honestly quite liking the nickname.

"Just want to let you know more thoroughly my powers before we begin. However if you want to go first that might be better."

"Oh! Well I can remove anything's centre of gravity and make it float, at least within a reasonable weight limit. It takes more of a strain on me the heavier the objects I lift though." Uraraka explained and Izumi nodded.

"Makes sense. My powers you've already seen are super strength, super speed and super agility. As well as that I can shapeshift my hands into various weapons."

"So you'll be better at holding off someone like Bakugou then?" The gravity girl guessed where her partner was going and the shapeshifter nodded.

"Yeah. Chances are Bakugou probably will get ticked off as soon as he's told what to do and he'll take off on his own." She nodded, before looking up and down the building once more. This time however the world became coated in a blue haze, and on the fourth floor, she smirked as she saw two figures standing in place. "I also have enhanced senses. I can hear, see and smell much better than a regular person. I actually have heat vision, let's me see people's heat signatures and find out where they are even through walls."

"BEGIN!" All Might's voice called out, and the two smirked at each other, nodding.

"Anything else?"

"Just one little important detail. One of my most useful powers is my sixth sense, a kind of danger sense if you will. It will be how we start, here's the plan…"

Their footsteps echoed off the walls of the second floor, Izumi in particular constantly putting more force into her steps than necessary to generate some extra noise.

After all, Bakugou had acted just as she predicted. She'd kept an eye on their two opponents when they'd sneaked in, taking a lower floor away from the bomb and the villains. Then Iida had innocently and foolishly started his suggestion, that Midoriya had heard just a bit muffled.

"You should stand guard over the bomb, as the power house while I-"

"DON'T FUCKING TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"

Bakugou had ran off as expected and the shapeshifter had let her vision turn back to normal. It was handy to keep track of others but seeing the entire world in nothing but blue and red hues did make it a little hard to move about.

Now they were just waiting as they walked, trying to lure Bakugou to them with as much noise as possible. They passed a corridor, and Izumi's ear twitched as she heard an explosion.

Then another. Another, and another and….

The world flashed blue, and the greenette quickly turned and gave Uraraka a thumbs up, before pushing her away. Her partner took off in a sprint as Izumi turned to see Bakugou flying through the air at her.

She lifted her hand, ready to ignore whatever comments he made about the 'fucking Deku', but he didn't make any… Instead….

"THERE YOU ARE IZUKU!"

She froze, having not been called that in years and the blonde's attack connected, blasting half her body across the room. If she focused hard, she was sure she could have probably heard the horrified cries of her classmates before her body reformed.

"THE FUCK, BAKUGOU?!" She growled, turning to him. He wore a cruel sneer on his face as she gritted her teeth. "I thought you accepted the change?!"

"Oh I accepted it." The blonde said, faking an innocent tone. "Whether you're a boy or a girl, you will always be the annoying fucking Deku. The little villain bitch who doesn't deserve to be at a school like this! WHAT ABOUT YOU YA FUCKER?! SURELY YOU DON'T CARE IF YOU ACCEPT IT!"

SMACK!

The girl socked him square in the face, before grabbing him by the shirt and launching him overhead into the wall. He got back up again however, laughing.

"Come on Izuku! Admit it, you know you're a freak! A little monster who doesn't know what to think about themselves!"

"Shut. UP!" She practically screamed, tendrils shooting out of her wrists and pulling the blonde towards her. He exploded them, breaking out but the girl rushed forward faster than he could keep up with and suddenly she was gone.

He looked everywhere but up, unaware of the girl quietly seething on the roof. 'Shit, what if All Might heard all that?! What will he think? What if the class heard it…. I… I just got used to not being hated…'

Shaking her head, she remembered there were more immediately pressing matters and she dropped from the rood, landing behind Bakugou causing him to turn and launch a massive explosion at her.

"STOP HIDING, OR ARE YOU REALLY STIILL THAT MUCH OF A COWARDLY DEKU, IZUKU?! OR DO YOU FINALLY REALIZE IM THE ONLY ONE OF US WHO'S AN ACTUAL HERO!?"

As the smoke cleared however, it became clear she wasn't stopped in her tracks like the first time, having reacted by creating shield to protect herself that covered her whole body.

"Tch. Nice trick."

"Want to see the full version, you delusional bastard?!" She snarled, as the shield dissipated and her body swirled with tendrils, before the bone like material surrounded her entire body. She felt protrusions above her head and realized the armour she had created most have formed around her hood ears, giving her bunny like points at the top.

Bakugou growled, before launching forward and unleashing a barrage of explosions upon her. None managed to pierce through her armour and the blonde staggered back in shock as the girl sprinted forward and delivered a strike to the stomach.

Then as he keeled over, an elbow to his back and as he tried to twirl around for another attack, she grabbed his hand and pulled him up, forming a hammer fist and batting him across the hall like a baseball.

She let her armour disappear, beginning to walk to the blonde when suddenly the world flashed again. 'Iida?!'

Then again, then again and again! As it continued to flash rapidly, a dull pain started to form in her head and clutched her head in surprise. She barely noticed Bakugou's glowing gauntlet as her opponent began to talk.

"I'm all full up, Izuku…"

"W-what…."

"I had my gauntlets specially designed. They store my sweat as I move about, and I was in such a rush to teach you a lesson…. They filled up pretty fast. Almost makes me wonder if they built it to the right specifications. They're supposed to store up enough for a blast ten times my maximum output."

Izumi's blood ran cold. She'd seen the blonde's full power blast just once in her life, as he'd been training for U.A.

The Howitzer Impact, a move that destroyed the entire forest area he was in. But if this was ten times that….

Oh no….

"Teach you to ever think you're better than me, Izuku."

"DON'T YOU IDIOT!" She roared, armour forming as she tried to rush and grab the gauntlet. She was to slow however and barely jumped out of the way as the blast went off.

Time seemed to slow as the explosion tore through the walls and ripped apart the wall of the building, as well as blowing apart the floor and the roof. The entire building started to tilt and fall.

Bakugou had damaged the building to the point it was collapsing.

"AH! IM ON MY WAY STUDENTS-"

All might's voice began to ring out across the building but before he could even finish his announcement, years of instinct and experience kicked in.

Izumi bolted forward, punching Bakugou hard enough to knock him out of the building as she bolted out herself. She rapidly grabbed onto him with tendrils, forming flesh grenades in her hand and launching him into the building across the street, cocooning him into place. At the same time, she yanked his gauntlets off and sent them far away into a cocoon of their own.

Finally, she turned around in the less than ten second time span that had elapsed and activated her heat vision, quickly locating Uraraka and Iida. Without missing a beat dozens of tendrils shot off her body, and tore apart the walls to get to them.

She dived forward, sending out three more tendrils that pulled her classmates and the paper-mache bomb out into the air. Confused, the two looked at her as she dived past.

The greenette grabbed her partner, throwing the brunette at the bomb and creating a web of flesh for the girl to land in, simply shouting "Grab it."

She couldn't be quite as nice to Iida, throwing him onto the same wall as Bakugou but much lower down, in a similar position. Twenty seconds had passed and now it was time for the hard part.

She gritted her teeth, first catapulting herself to the other side of the building while grabbing all the parts of rubble, launching them into the air. She then created a mass of tendrils, her body starting to struggle to keep up with the endless production as she pulled the building back into place with her raw strength. 'Just a few more, keep at it!'

She admittedly sprinted and jumped to the front side of the building yet again, barely noting her classmates look of awe, and in Bakugou's case, anger as she landed in her web, she'd created for Uraraka, absorbing it all and redistributing it to replace the missing supports of the building. It held, fortunately.

"Is it over?" Uraraka asked, clearly shook by the unexpected event but Izumi shook her head, bending down and launching herself into the air.

"NOT YET!" She shouted as she quickly rose higher than the building and saw the pile of rubble, she launched into the air coming back down. "No guarantee that will land anywhere safe, got to stop it but normal tendrils won't be enough. Using a devastator will just create more rubble…"

Then, she had a thought. One that in hindsight, she was surprised she'd yet to have sooner. Her devastators were attacks meant to leave… well devastation in their wake but what if she repurposed them, changed their direction ever so slightly.

As the rubble continued to follow, she acknowledged she might as well try, raising both her hands up. "Here goes nothing. PRESERVER: TENDRIL NET!"

Her arms exploded, millions of interlocked and tightly packed tendrils shooting out exactly like her Critical Pain Devastator, Except just as they came up upon the rubble, they exploded out and wrapped around them like a fishing net.

Once it was all in the shapeshifters grasp, she gritted her teeth and prepared herself. "And… ABSORB!"

As she cried that the rocks were quickly crushed into dust by the tendrils before all being pulled into her body, travelling throughout her. It took a minute but all the rubble eventually became one with her own body and she looked down to see the ground fast approaching.

She flipped one last time, landing on her feet and getting up, brushing dust of her shoulder and turning to her classmates. "Everyone alright?"

"I… I…. what the crap….." Uraraka muttered, awestruck by her friends display. Then she looked at the greenette properly and gasped in horror. "Your face!"

"Huh? What's wrong with my face?" Izumi questioned, lifting a hand and feeling around. Eventually she ran her hand along her left side and her eyes went wide before she laughed. "Oh, is that all?"

"'Is- is that all?!' Your face turned to stone!"

Midoriya really couldn't help her laughter, walking up to the brunette.

"Don't worry about it Uraraka. I can reform my body if I'm damaged, but I need a good supply of meat to easily fuel my powers. I can create all the biomass I need from by body, pretty much infinitely but it's also a million times easier to use biological components I've absorbed, and as a result, if I absorb something non-biological like rubble, this happens. Give it a few hours and a good meal and I'll be good as new." Izumi explained, as she walked over to Iida, absorbing the cocoon and helping him out. "You feeling ok, pal?"

"Y-yes, quite alright. Just a bit of a shock is all." The blue haired teen said, eyes wide as he shook his head. "What an experience for our first lesson…."

After helping the engine teen down, Izumi's face hardened into a glare as she looked up to where Bakugou was stuck. "You can stay right up there until All Might arrives and think about what you've done, asshat."

The blonde just glared. As they stood, a new announcement sounded out from one of the speakers.

"UHH, WELL I'M HONESTLY STILL NOT ENTIRELY SURE WHAT I JUST WITNESSED BUT YOUNG MIDORIYA, WELL DONE ON RESCUING EVERYONE AND SECURING A VICTORY FOR THE HERO TEAM! I'LL BE THERE IN JUST A MOMENT!"

As it would turn out, just a moment was more like ten seconds as rapid footsteps and a rush of wind accompanied their teacher and his sudden appearance. "I AM HERE TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE ALL OK!"

"I'm fine, sir! Just a bit shocked is all." Iida replied first, and Uraraka just nodded in agreement with the tall teen.

"I didn't take any real damage in the blast, fortunately though if it hit centre on…." Izumi shuddered. "Let's just say there are few things I fear can actually kill me, and that just made the list."

"I see." All Might said, face growing dark as he looked up to Bakugou and his prison. "Can you get him down my girl? He won't be able to serve his detention up there."

"Yes sir!" She nodded, turning and leaping into the air, absorbing the cocoon but leaving the tiny bit still on his mouth so he'd stay quiet. Maybe letting him drop towards the ground and only catching him last moment was a bit much but by god was she so done with him.

"Katsuki Bakugou." All Might began, a low anger in his voice that set the other students on edge. "Your actions in today's lesson were completely unacceptable. You could have killed the four of you with that attack, and you clearly knew how destructive said attack could be. You will be lucky to escape with anything less than suspension, if not expulsion for this."

Then he turned, facing lightening up.

"As for you three, you should return to the viewing room. I asked young Asui to grab some drinks for you in case you needed them, and I sincerely apologise for how this exercise has began."

"It's alright All Might, it's not your fault." Izumi spoke up first, smiling. "Thank you though."

"Yes, you had no way of knowing Bakugou would act like this." Iida agreed. "We shall be on our way now sir!"

"Right."

As All Might had said, when the three returned the green haired frog girl that was Tsuyu Asui had quickly handed the three of them drinks, which they had accepted and Izumi took her seat.

"Yo, Midoriya!" A voice called, and when she opened her eyes she couldn't tell exactly who had called beyond it being a boy. Everyone seemed to be looking at her, making her worry slightly. 'Oh no, did they hear Katsuki-'

"You were amazing out there!" A red headed teen said with a wide grin, giving her a thumbs up. "If I didn't know better I would of thought you already were a pro!"

"Yeah, I mean how did you even manage to recover so fast?" Hagakure, the invisible girl who had almost been expelled exclaimed, coming closer. "it barely even started and all of a sudden you were already saving everyone."

"I know you said you were like a weaker All Might but I didn't expect it to be so literal. I couldn't even keep track of you when you got serious." A boy with weird elbows called Sero laughed, winking at her.

"Oh! Oh! Come on, Midori!" Ashido, a girl with pink skin and hair bounced on her feet. "It's like your capable of anything, but like what can you actually do? Like could you copy Asui or Shoji's quirk?"

"I… uh…"

"Or can you only do certain things? Could you even look like people with different looks like me or can you only handle 'normal' looking people?"

"Ashido, calm yourself." Iida scolded lightly, getting a pout from the pink skinned girl. "Give her a moment to breathe."

"I…. If you guys don't mind, do you think maybe you could save the questions for the end of the day? I still kinda need to recover mentally."

"Oh right, sorry!" The red head, Kirishima said, pulling Ashido away. "Don't stress yourself over it or anything though, we're all just kinda curious, ya know."

"Yeah… I understand that." The greenette laughed, as Asui took a seat next to her.

"For the record, ribbit." She began, turning to face the shapeshifter with a blank expression. "If you want to test the thing about mutation types, I'm ok with you using mine to try it."

"O-oh, thanks Asui."

"Call me Tsu, I'd prefer it if people I'd consider friends did." She said, and the greenette raised a brow.

"That's quite… fast."

"You're fast, and that was a good thing earlier." Asui countered and the shapeshifter shrugged.

"Fair enough."

"Only downside is you'll have to be less pretty, going from looking like you to looking like me." Asui said with a completely straight face, causing Izumi to almost spit out her drink in surprise. She quickly swallowed and turned to the frog girl with a look of surprise.

And in her infinite, ever present wisdom and guidance, she tried to say "I'm not pretty" and "You ARE pretty" at the same time.

"You are not pretty…"

…..

"I mean….. sorry. I mean, I'm not pretty, you are and just fucking kill me." She groaned, the entire class laughing at her expense as she placed her had into her hands. "So sorry."

"If it was an honest mistake then don't worry about it."

With that, Izumi just stayed quiet as the class continued to play out. Asui didn't move from her spot though, apparently trying to silently convey she wasn't offended.

All Might came back soon enough and after a quick explanation that Bakugou had been delivered to Aizawa, and they'd continued on with Ashido, a blonde boy with an air of elegance called Aoyoma fighting against a bulky teen called Satou and a rock like teen named Koda.

As they were leaving, Mina turned quickly with a little grin and gave a thumbs up to Midoriya, Iida and Uraraka. "I'll try to live up to you three's amazing showing!"

"Just don't copy Katsuki to do it!" Izumi laughed, leaning back.

The shapeshifters spirit quickly came back to her as she saw her classmate's quirks in action more thoroughly, loving the spectacle as they all fought one another, giving their all. They were in a different building of course, no one wanting to test the supports Izumi had created.

As they continued to watch display after display, Midoriya really stared to feel like she was going to love every minute of her time in this class even with the potential complications.

Unfortunately, for the day at least, her good mood wasn't fated to last.

After everyone had finished up, and they had all been debriefed by All Might, Izumi had had to do everything in her power to keep from laughing at All Might's comical retreat, knowing the real reason he was running was his horrible injury hidden just beneath the surface.

She'd been the first girl in the changing room, and out again before the others had even fully walked in. She just hung about, sitting on top of one of the lockers with her phone, conversing with Uraraka as she waited for the others to be done.

Waiting outside on her own would have just been boring. Soon enough the class had all begun to walk back and Izumi had found herself near the back of the group, debating with Iida about whether Todoroki, a heterochromatic fire and ice wielding teen' approach to the exercise would actually be practical in a real life situation.

Just as Izumi was explaining why she thought that there would be too much risk of civilian casualty from his approach, the group in front suddenly stopped and started to mutter.

Then some looked back at her. Some were confused, others seemed….sorry.

She couldn't really make out what anyone was saying due to them all talking over one another but whatever it was it quickly became apparent to do with her. "Guys? You gonna go in?"

"Um…. Midoriya…. You might want to come see this." Jirou, a girl with purple hear and headphone like earlobes said, pushing a few people back so the girl could get in. Confused, she walked into their classroom.

"What's the matt-"

Suddenly, it became blindingly obvious. Her throat dried as the world became quieter and she found herself with only one thought.

'No..no no no…. no no nononononono….'

Lined up and down all the walls, everywhere staring at her and mocking her.

Everywhere in the room there were photos of her. Bu they weren't of her…..

They all depicted a younger Midoriya, before she had her powers. Before she was even Izumi….

On all of them, a single caption was written beneath all the photos.

"Izuku. Izumi's little secret."
