Hi, just wanted to say thanks for returning.


It wasn't easy but she did it. 10 months of living day to day as a regular person, true there were some complications to that lifestyle like needing to use a restoration spell on Midoriya every other day due to his training, the other tenants being suspicious of a sixteen year old being their land lady and generally just hanging out with the green haired teen when he wasn't at school or out training with the rooftop idiot.

That might have just been her favourite part of the almost year she spent in the new world. When Midoriya would run around his room gathering merchandise of various heroes to show her (yes believe it or not it wasn't all rooftop freak's stuff plastering his bedroom) explaining their quirks in great detail and only sometimes taking out one of his notebooks for reference.

Once, she'd asked to have a look at a few of them and despite being initially hesitant at handing one his precious belongings over the boy shook it off and let her flick through the notes he kept on various heroes and villains. It didn't seem like she even had to offer that advise to him of the rooftop when they'd first met as Midoriya already had their strengths and weaknesses written down along with almost fool proof strategies on how to put them out of commission. Seriously, the back up plans had back ups. That's how good it was.

It was honestly adorable when Midoriya blushed at her praise of his work and tried to play it off as nothing much but it it did instil a great deal of frustration within her that he had all this potential and it was almost squandered because his confidence was taken from him by his peers as well as those who should have been encouraging him. But it was also sad. Although Spider never made it known when they were together, she was deeply upset by the fact Midoriya didn't have a real friend before she came along.

At around the four month mark of their friendship was when the teen began truly talking to her about his experience being quirkless in a society made up of super powered people rather than giving her vague indications or general points, and no matter how many times she heard it or turned the situations he presented over in her head the Dragonborn just couldn't understand why this genuine ray of sunshine was so... hated.

Children can be cruel. That was a fact, however that didn't mean Midoriya should have had to navigate the intricacies of avoiding his fellow students as well as not upsetting his teachers over the most trivial of things like mumbling during class or making a fuss over the other kids' hostile gestures, a shove here or a jeer there. Yet the worst thing that Spider had heard from her friend involved a newspaper article being placed on his desk before he arrived to class detailing a group of quirkless civilians forming a suicide pact and throwing themselves off of a building. The words 'What are you waiting for?' written on his desk underneath it.

And yes she specified the word 'heard' because Spider knew he was holding back more than that, whether it was to spare her feelings because he didn't want to burden her or because he didn't feel up to telling her more was unclear.

The Dovahkiin knew what it was like to want to die and she understood the stigma involving the act in the worlds she'd visited, but that was only because unlike in Nirn they had no idea what happened after death. Spider wanted to die and join her loved ones in Aetherius... but these poor souls just wanted to escape the torture of their lives, of a society that thought of them as lesser.

Admittedly Spider did something decidedly unheroic after that particular talk. Midoriya might have gone through his usual routine of assuring her that he was fine and that it was in the past, that it didn't matter anymore because he had her and All Might as friends, that the three who had cornered him that day she brought him lunch wouldn't even look at him anymore. But the weight that settled in her chest didn't lessen, it burned hotter.

That school did nothing to help him. They went so far as to blame Midoriya for the fights other students picked with him. When the mild mannered boy showed up to class bruised and bleeding, uniform burned and torn... they did nothing.

Anyone else would likely say what she did was unfair, it wasn't right, that there was a 'better way' to have dealt with the situation. She didn't care.

When Spider killed the daedric prince Molag Bal, she devoured his soul just like she would have a dragon's (thank you Alduin for that little trick). But without his power, the realm of oblivion he called home began to fall apart, so she claimed it as her own. It was the place the souls of mortals who didn't deserve Aetherius or Sovngard went to be punished before being recycled. If a few more who didn't belong suddenly appeared, none of the residents questioned it. They knew better. But she had to be patient, she waited until the school year was over. Midoriya would never have to know.

Moving on to a more light-hearted topic, the most ridiculous discovery she'd made was that it was actually illegal to use your quirk in public if you didn't have a hero licence. That particular piece of information was obtained during a heated discussion with a police officer that caught Spider healing people outside of a homeless shelter.

They had a hard life and she sympathised with them, offering her restoration magic so they didn't have to worry about dying to a common illness or injury they might have. Of course others had also gathered asking for her help and Spider was happy to assist given that she had nothing better to do, in fact she had just finished mending a young blonde girl's broken arm when the officer stepped in.

The crowd quickly dispersed after he showed up spouting about how they could be charged as accessories if they stayed to defend her, many looked unsure but the Dovahkiin waved them off and told them not to worry about it. Once it was just him and Spider he 'helpfully' informed her of the laws in place banning the use of quirks without proper authorisation.

"So what you're saying is I'm not allowed to use my quirk unless I have a damn hero licence?" Spider asked in order to clarify.

"What are you thick? That's what I've just spent the last fifteen minutes explaining to you." He angrily replied.

"And just how the fuck are you going to stop me from doing this?" She waved her hand in front of the man and he was engulfed in purple flames for an instant before vanishing. "Try regulating that, asshole."

Don't worry though the officer was fine, just trapped on the roof of a skyscraper for a few hours until the door to the roof was unlocked by the building security after a call from one of the police stations. While yes Spider could have conjured a fake document that looked exactly like what the guy needed to see for her actions to be legal, she just thought he could stand to be taken down a notch.

But enough about that, the day of the entrance exam had finally arrived. Spider had gotten to UA thirty minutes before the exam and checked herself in at reception, Midoriya was adamant he didn't need teleporting to the school too as he still needed to meet All Might at that beach they were 'training' on. She was issued an exam ticket and escorted to the main hall with a bunch of other potential students, she found her seat corresponded with the examinee number on the card, 2232. She sat there and waited as the place filled with over ten thousand candidates.

That was when he marched in her direction to his seat. Spider hadn't seen Bakugo much since their altercation and when she did it was always from a distance, however from what she'd heard from Midoriya the teen was a little less abrasive than he used to be and kept to himself rather than bully the green haired boy.

'And it will stay that way if he knows what's good for him.'

He fell into his seat roughly and crossed his arms refusing to look directly at her. "What are you doing here?"

"Inko Midoriya suggested I apply, so here I am." Spider answered earning a huff from the teen.

Izuku Midoriya entered not long after and took his seat on the other side of Bakugo giving a quick hello to them both as the lights had started to come on, Spider didn't have chance to mention it but there was something different about his aura, it looked... brighter. Up front there was a huge screen with the UA logo and a thin blonde man with very long gelled up hair that defied gravity for all it was worth, he wore flashy clothing and glasses as well as a metal contraption on the front of his neck.

"What's up UA candidates, thanks for tuning into me your school DJ. COME ON AND LET ME HEAR YA!" His voice projected easily around the room and he turned his head to better hear the response from the potential students. Only there wasn't one. That's awkward.

"Greetings." Spider's voice carried across to the presenter after the long seconds of silence without any trouble and despite it being a conversational tone it was loud enough for all to hear. This got more than a few heads to turn her way but she didn't mind since she'd also caught the look of relief on the presenter's face that someone actually answered.

"Most of you keeping it mellow huh? That's fine I'll skip straight to the main show, lets talk about how this practical exam's gonna go down okay." He struck a pose before yelling. "ARE YOU READYYYYY?"

It was met with more brief moments of silence.

"Yes, please begin." Spider responded once again, getting heads to turn towards her a second time. 'I'm not sure why they're staring, it's rude not to answer when he so clearly expects one.'

She then noticed Midoriya muttering a seat over from her. "Oh my goodness it's the voice hero Present Mic, so cool. I listen to his radio show every day of the week!"

"Yeah, at 03:00 AM. Do you know how many complaints I get about that?" Spider grumbled back loud enough for Midoriya to hear and look a little embarrassed. It made him look adorable but that's besides the point.

Present Mic started to speak again. "Like your application says today you will be taking part in turbulent mock battles in super hip urban settings! After I drop the mic here you'll all head to your specified battle centres, sound good?"

Nothing...

"OKAY!?" He tried again looking pointedly in Spider's direction.

'Now that's just desperate.' "Yes, thank you." She said without even glancing at the pro hero as she studied her exam ticket. She was to go to battle centre G.

"I see." Bakugo said beside her. "Their splitting us up so we can't work with any of our friends."

"That's funny, I wasn't aware you had any." Spider replied off handedly, still not looking up from her ticket.

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME!" He cried indignantly but was shut down by the glare Spider sent his way, her green eyes flashed with inhuman malice for a moment but it was enough to silence the youth.

"There is a time and a place, do you really think here is it?" She spoke carefully so that only those in the immediate vicinity could hear and was successful in getting the across. 'Sit down, shut up and if you're really unlucky I'll kick your ass later.'

"Okay, okay lets check out your targets." Present Mic announced and behind him the screen changed to show an urban area and three silhouettes. "There are three types of villains in every battle centre, you earn points based on there level of difficulty so better choose wisely. The goal in this trial is to raise your score by shredding these villains like a mid song guitar solo!" As he described what to do a little animation of the hero appeared on screen and defeated several of the robots. "But check it, attacking other candidates during the exam is a UA no-no you dig?"

One of the candidates stood up two rows ahead of Spider with his hand raised high in the air. "Excuse me sir but I have a question."

"Hit me!" Present Mic replied as a spot light landed on the potential student, he had dark blue hair and small rectangular glasses, he also wore a brown jacket and striped tie rather than the black almost jacket thing that Midoriya and Bakugo wore. Must be from a more elite school since everyone arrived in their uniforms. Except Spider of course since, you know, she didn't have one.

"On the print out you have listed four types of villains not three, with all due respect if this is an error on official UA materials it is shameful." He said holding out the sheet of paper they'd all been given. "We are exemplary students and we expect the best from Japan's most notable school, a mistake such as this won't do."

'Speak for yourself you righteous ass.' The teen suddenly spun around towards Spider, Bakugo and Midoriya. 'Shit is he a telepath? Did he hear that?' Spider thought hurriedly before calming. 'No, one of the dragons would have eaten his consciousness. Must be something else.' She reasoned.

"Additionally, you with the unkempt hair and the two beside him. You've been arguing this entire time. Stop that, if you can't bother to take this seriously then leave, you are distracting the rest of us." He stated sternly.

What Spider would have said involved several expletives and a few creative ways she'd use to ensure they'd never identify the corpse. Vs what she actually muttered to herself so that she wouldn't be seen as a psychopath, no one had to know about that yet. "You are not that person anymore, no matter how much he deserves it." Spider breathed deeply and got herself to calm down, it was actually the only use she had for breathing anymore. Other than that she was able to live without the chore of inhaling oxygen which came in handy on more than one occasion.

Present Mic thankfully drew the attention back to the original question. "Alright, alright examinee number 7111, thanks for calling in with your request. The fourth Villain type is worth zero points, that guy is just an obstacle we'll be throwing in your way. There's one in every battle centre but think of them as a hurdle you should try to avoid, it's not that they can't be beaten but there's... kind of no point. I recommend my listeners try to ignore it and focus on the ones at the top of the charts!"

The teen who asked bowed his head deeply. "Thank you very much, please continue." He sat back down after he said it.

"That's all I've got for you today unless there's anything else from you guys." Present Mic said.

Spider in turn stood up. "Actually I also have a question." She announced.

Present Mic looked delighted. "How could I say no to the first voice I heard among you, what can I answer for you today?"

"This test appears to be biased towards quirks that are able to deal damage to a villain, I wanted to know if there was another test designed for quirks that are equally useful in the hero industry but have absolutely nothing to do with damage output." She spoke clearly and confidently towards the pro hero before looking directly towards the student that pissed her off. "Additionally," Spider put extra emphasis on the word. "To the dumbass whose question would have been answered if he'd just waited until the end." That got his attention as he spun around to meet her gaze. "It is not up to you to decide what I do and do not take seriously, and don't presume to speak for everyone in the room, if they have the same problem as you then they can speak for themselves but you may be surprised to learn not everyone was born with a stick up their ass." Spider took her seat again and revelled in the shocked silence. 'Take that ya prick.'

Eventually there were more than a few snickers around the hall and the teen had the decency to look a little embarrassed about his predicament. Even the pro hero looked to be slightly amused but to his credit he held it in. "Now, now there's no need to get personal. We don't want to have to disqualify anyone prematurely. But back to your question, there isn't another test and I'm a little curious as to what other quirks you think we should take into account when creating next years exam."

Spider stood up again. "Aura vision, healing and telepathy. None are able to fairly compete in this exam but can be argued to be just as valuable if not more so than quirks that focus on physically defeating a villain."

"An astute answer, I can see a few teachers taking note to my left back stage and rest assured we have been working on a replacement test but unfortunately this year there's only one practical exam available." He responded. Spider nodded and returned to her seat as he continued. "Before you go I'll leave you with a sample of our school motto, 'a true hero is one who overcomes life's misfortunes' now that's a tasty sound bite. You ready to go beyond!? LET'S HEAR A PLUS ULTRA!" Present Mic cried as the last two words flashed on the screen behind him.

'I'm not saying that.'

"Good luck, hope you practiced hitting more than just books!" He ended his presentation with those oh so helpful final words.

Spider separated from Midoriya and Bakugo to find her group, they exited the school and entered a bus that brought them towards the far right battle centre. It was more like a small city within tall imposing walls and a huge gate that everyone gathered in front of. On top of small tower Present Mic projected his voice to the gathered candidates.

"RIGHT LET'S START!" Incredibly it reached everyone across all the battle centres which covered a large area. "GET MOVING, THERE ARE NO COUNT DOWNS IN REAL BATTLES. RUN! RUN! RUN! LISTENERS YOU''RE WASTING AIR TIME HERE.!"

The huge gate was opened and every candidate set off instantaneously. Spider however had a different approach. She cast a spell washing her form in dancing purple flames and teleporting herself to the centre of the urban battleground, it was easy to sense the 'villains' as they emitted a similar hostile aura to that of dwemer machines. Wasting no time her right hand glowed dangerously with dark green energy, slowly she lifted it higher into the air and suddenly every machine villain worth any points was raised into the sky, too far for any of the other students to reach. All one hundred and fifty of them. Spider let them hang for a moment, enjoying the feeling of using more than the usual insignificant fraction of her magical power, before closing her hand into a fist and crushing them into scrap metal.

They too were engulfed in purple flames and transported to Spider's location, using her alteration magic she bent and twisted the metal into a crude roaring dragon that looked very much alive. Seeing as there was some scrap left over she also created a throne directly below the hulking beast and would have proceeded to sit there, one leg crossed over the other, arms crossed and a bored expression. What could she say? She had a flair for the dramatic.

The other potential students were getting closer to the centre. She could sense there frantic auras as they searched high and low for a robotic villain she hadn't crushed and took some kind of pleasure from 'watching' there futile endeavour. However she was by no means distracted from the only other machine she'd left intact below the surface of the battle centre.

Holding out her hand Spider decided she would give the people of this world an example of her real power, the kind that only came from a god. Gathering the dark ball of seemingly unstable energy in her hand it looked like death and decay itself had been combined into a physical shell of black oozing mass. With a wicked smile that did not suit the girl looking to be wearing the same bright red shoes, top and cute black skirt over the same coloured tights, Spider released the ball of pure destruction.

It travelled slowly and deliberately disintegrating the cement as it carried on directly toward its target. In her minds eye Spider could already imagine what was happening as it reached what was easily the largest machine villain in the battle centre. First it engulfed the entirety of the machine's body in a black haze, pausing for the briefest moment before ripping it apart molecule by molecule, atom by atom. In the space of a second, nothing would remain of the 'villain', not even ash.

So her smile stayed as she stared ahead of her at something that wasn't there. 'Sometimes I forget that my nature is to destroy. That's why it's hard not to enjoy breaking their toys.'

Spider was pretty pleased with herself, unfortunately the other candidates in her battle centre were... less so. Although no one was stupid enough to pick a fight with the girl who single handedly scrapped every robot in the place, their disappointment and budding resentment was clear. The solution was to have the exam run a second time but without Spider's participation.

The judges all agreed that she had more than earned her place in the school with that show of power however they kind of needed the other students to have a chance at scoring points in order to fairly judge who should fill their class rooms. That was how she ended up watching the other students inside of a command centre that had cameras on all the other battle zones with members of UA's faculty.

The head master was most fascinating as he was a rodent with the intelligence beyond that of a human genius and body structure similar enough to human child and his fur was quite lustrous that he must take excellent care of it. Spider stood next to him as they all watched the exam unfold.

"That was a remarkable display Ms PoisonBlood, I'm sure you'll make a fine hero should you graduate." He told her though his eyes never left the screen.

"I have a request." Spider replied bluntly.

"Oh, I'm excited to hear it."

"I don't want to knock anyone out of the class I get into so I would ask that you add an extra desk in it so that I may sit there." Spider put forward.

"I see, unfortunately classroom 1A doesn't have the space for another student, unless you could show me how to make it possible." He replied, looking at her for the first time.

In response Spider did the unthinkable. She conjured a chair. And she sat in it. "Its not difficult for me to move a wall back a few feet to allow space for another student." She responded casually.

"I see, but what about the odd number of students? Many teachers rely on pairing them up for lessons and exams." Nezu said factually.

"I don't mind being alone when I should really have a partner, but if it's really that important then I can be partnered with someone who runs the test or lesson twice provided they want to, if they fail with their original partner then they have a second chance to succeed. If they passed then they get to show off their prowess." Spider reasoned. "Either way it doesn't seem like a problem."

"Hmm, alright you've made some good points, I'll agree to your proposal but you have to do something for me in return."

"I'm listening." Spider replied.

"The black ball you made to destroy the last zero pointer villain, you are not to use it on school grounds as it may put too many students on edge, I'm sure we would both rather benefit from your peers not fearing you would do that to them at any given time." Nezu laid out his terms and it seemed like a fair exchange though there was clearly another motive for him not wanting her to make use of the ability.

"You have my word I shall not use the power of destruction on school grounds, provided my terms are adhered to as well." Spider held out her hand to the principal.

"Agreed." He said as he shook her hand with his paw.

As soon as their limbs met an explosion occurred on one of the screens, Spider looked up and saw Izuku falling after having punched the giant robot villain. 'Idiot.'


Midoriya almost died. Three times. Once when punched half the monster robot worth zero points in half. Second when he'd broken 3/4 of his fucking limbs and fell from sixty feet in the air. And the third time he'd almost had a heart attack on his way out of the battle centre when Spider got her hands on him after his stunt with the large villain worth fuck all points.

"I hope you realise, I'm telling your mother about this." She'd said causing his eyes to grow wide and release a terrified squeak, allowing fear to take over making Spider chuckle heartily. 'My malicious streak is returning.' She'd thought at the time.

Healing the boy fully as well as having had her fun messing with him a little, she and Midoriya signed out of UA and went home, the instantaneous way since a mob had crowded the two, filled with people who wanted to see or ask about their quirks.

One week later both were still waiting for the test results. Spider had taken to hanging out in the Midoriya residence with Izuku and trying to make him feel better about his score on the exam. The boy was distant as he absently worked out with his weights and other equipment he'd purchased.

They were in his room, Spider browsing the internet at Midoriya's desk while the teen himself sat on his bed mumbling about his score of zero points.

"Why don't you just ask All Might so you can stop worrying?" Spider asked as she listened to this worlds music on the computer. It was different than she was used to but pleasant all the same.

"He hasn't responded to any of my messages and whenever I try to call it goes straight to voice mail." Midoriya replied sadly.

"Do you think he's ignoring you?" She asked and got a glum look in response. "Lets find out." Spider said and cast a spell causing purple flames to appear between the two eventually dissipating to reveal All Might's form, the small and frail one dressed in heart pyjama shorts, plain white shirt and socks with a toothbrush in his mouth as he mindlessly cleaned his teeth.

It took an embarrassing amount of time for him to realise he was no longer where he thought he was. The man jumped back, falling over and dropping the toothbrush in surprise. "What! Where? Who?" He asked as he looked around the room at Midoriya who looked a mix of being in awe and shock that his hero was in his room, and Spider who sported a mean girl smile at the man's predicament. "You can't just do this to someone! It's not heroic at all."

"Answer your damn phone and I won't have to." Spider retorted. "You had this kid just short of an anxiety attack. It's not like it takes long to send a text saying 'Don't worry, you did fine young Midoriya.'" She told him in a scolding fashion while doing her best impression of him.

"I couldn't even if I wanted to, it would be seen as favouritism." He defended.

"What do mean?" Midoriya asked. "You're not a teacher at UA or anything."

"Yeah he'd know if you were." Spider commented while gesturing to the All Might memorabilia dotted around the room.

"Actually-" All Might was interrupted by frantic knocking at Izuku's door.

"Izuku! Spider! Your letters from UA arrived!" Inko Midoriya said as she opened the door with both letters in her shaking hand. "Wait, who's that." She asked looking at All Might.

"He's a funny illusion I made to make Izuku smile." Spider covered swiftly.

"Hmm I see, he looks great." Inko complimented gaining a blush from the pro hero.

"How'd you get my letter?" Spider asked.

"Oh I caught the mail man on his way up to your apartment." Inko answered leaving the two letters on the desk and politely giving the two privacy.

Spider picked up the Midoriya's letter and handed it over to the teen. "Don't worry about it, you got in." She told him confidently.

"How do you know?" Midoriya asked as he took the letter and opened it to reveal a small black disk.

"He looks too proud for it to be anything else." Spider responded looking at All Might who had since managed to stand and had a small smile on his face.

"Alright, here goes." Midoriya placed the disk on the desk in front of them and a projection of All Might in his muscular form appeared. After a lot of grand standing and a video of a cute brunette trying to give Izuku some of her points he revealed that the boy passed the exam due to a rescue point system that focused on heroics rather than combat prowess. Midoriya looked like he'd die of happiness right then and there as All Might's smile grew wider. They almost missed that the video All Might announced he would be a teacher at UA.

"Wow, you actually are a teacher." Spider was almost speechless Midoriya didn't know about it. "I stand corrected."

"This is amazing! Can we see yours now!" Midoriya pleaded.

"I am curious as to how many rescue points I got since I destroyed all the robots myself." Spider spoke while tearing open the letter and finding her own black disk. Using her alteration magic the disk morphed into several sheets of parchment with exquisite cursive writing detailing everything the video would have said. Looking up at the two surprised faced in the room she just shrugged and said. "I'm old fashioned."

She quickly scanned the letter and it was no surprise she got the highest score with three hundred points, "...more of All Might grand standing, blah blah blah, ah rescue points, unfortunately you received zero rescue points leaving your score at three hundred." Spider read out. She placed the letter on the desk and turned to All Might. "The fuck?"

"Look I wasn't one of the judges but I was watching and it's not like you saved anyone from anything." All Might tried to calm the Dovahkiin.

"Bullshit! I pre-emptively saved them from getting hurt by scrapping the robots before anyone could reach them." Spider huffed. "I deserve at least ten rescue points for that."

He already had his hands raised in the universal gesture of surrender. "Like I said it was out of my hands. And a young lady really shouldn't swear so much." All Might chided. "Anyway in all you'll be pleased to know that thirty seven students made it into UA thanks to your little agreement with the principle and you'll both be in class 1A."

"Such a small number considering how many people entered the exam." Midoriya muttered.

"Yes, even less when you factor four of them got in through recommendations." All Might could practically feel the temperature drop to negative 5 degrees as soon as the words left his mouth.

"Could you repeat that?" Spider asked sweetly, an innocent smile on her features that somehow screamed murder.

"You didn't know?" Izuku asked. "UA has places available for students recommended by important school board members or pro heroes." He explained, oblivious to the change in her mood.

"And they find it acceptable that I had to dance like a monkey in front of a crowd while they get to waltz in without effort on the words of another." Spider was trying really hard to contain the anger.

"No, no, no they had a test of their own between everyone that was recommended and only the top four got in." All Might informed the Dragonborn.

"I swear to the divines if you tell me that their test did not involve giant killer robots I'm going to have a talk with the rat about this blatant unfairness." Spider stood from her seat and got right into the pro hero's personal space. He looked away and mumbled an answer that even to Spider's hearing was just gibberish. "Say again?"

"It was an obstacle course." He relented.

"I can literally teleport." She stated simply. "My ability would crush any of theirs in that test and UA thought, 'lets make a separate test for these kids because they're so special."

"Uhm to be fair though, you did kind of crush everyone else's score in the regular exam too." Midoriya interjected meekly.

"Look I can see you're upset but it's the way the school works." All Might said though it was clear he was slightly troubled, whether it was by Spider's temper or the separate test was unclear.

"That doesn't make it right. And I'm pissed that Present Mic lied to me about there not being another test." Spider replied.

"I can understand that but don't take it out on him or anyone else. Who knows you might be able to change the system if you fight hard enough." All Might encouraged.

"Yeah, if you believe in yourself then anything's possible right." Midoriya added.

"Its sickening how optimistic you two are." Spider deadpanned. "Fine I'll let it go for the time being, goodnight." She threw a red bottle at the pro hero who caught it despite fumbling slightly, waved her hand and All Might disappeared in a flurry of purple flames, his fallen toothbrush going with him.

Spider said good bye to Midoriya after that and returned home to ponder what school life would be like, completely removing the separate test from her mind as it only served to tick her off. Inequality never sat well with the Dovahkiin, in terms of strength it couldn't be helped but when it came down to equal opportunity she found it disgraceful that almost every world she came to there were those who were raised above the rest simply due to the fact they were part of a higher social class.

The next three weeks were spent preparing for school, buying books and a uniform that to Spider looked incredibly dull, white shirt, red tie, grey jacket, dark green skirt and black tights. She decided it would be better to actually wear the uniform rather than use an illusion spell as it was nice to wear something other than demonic armour every now and then, despite her thoughts on the colour scheme. Of course Spider always had her sword by her side, an invisibility spell cloaking it from the eyes of those around her.

Then the first day of school was upon her, Spider had no use for sleep so it was excruciating counting down the hours but once the school officially opened she teleported herself into her classroom and set to work on her end of the deal using her alteration magic to extend the back wall literally about seven inches making room for another tow of desks before conjuring her own desk and chair ensuring it looked the same as the rest.

This meant that there were twenty one desks in total and hers was in the middle back where there really should have been a space since the desks were lined up in rows of four. It made the room look a little off but it didn't bother the Dovahkiin much as she took her seat and waited with surprising patience.

after an hour or so the classroom filled with faces she didn't recognise, a few stared at her but she wasn't sure if it was because of her desk's placement or because they recognised her from the goo incident on the news or something. She did notice however that the boy from the exam who'd called Midoriya's hair 'unkempt' and basically told her to leave, was looking over to her as if unsure of if he should approach.

Surprisingly he stood and strode to her desk with purpose. "Hello, My name is Tenya Iida and I would like to apologise for my believing you were not taking the exam seriously when we first met." The teen spoke confidently as he bowed his head.

"I apologise as well, I may have been a little harsh on you too during the explanation of the exam. My name is Spider PoisonBlood, pleasure to make your acquaintance." She held out her hand but didn't get up from her seat. Iida accepted the gesture and shook her hand firmly. "As much as I'd love to chat I have a feeling you would like to know that Bakugo has his feet up on his desk." She indicated towards the blonde boy.

She barely registered Iida leave her side as he practically sprinted towards the explosive teen. 'It's going to be really difficult to deal with him. I can feel it.'

Those two spent the next few minutes arguing before Midoriya entered the class along with the cute brunette Spider saw on his acceptance video. Iida had rushed towards them to introduce himself and congratulate Izuku on realising the extra parameters on the exam. The brunette seemed ecstatic to talk with the two about Midoriya's punch that took down the robot which almost crushed her to death.

'I wonder what they would have done if she'd died because I don't remember signing any liability waiver.' Spider thought to herself as a third person entered the room, he had a yellow sleeping bag in his left hand which was just... strange. He Introduced himself as Mr Aizawa, their teacher. He had long black hair, a scruffy beard and wore all black except for a collection of bandages that he appeared to be using as a scarf.

"Right lets get to it, put these on and head outside." He said as he grabbed a blue, white and red sports suit with the UA logo on it out of his sleeping bag.

Somehow he had enough for all of them inside the sleeping bag, they were all escorted to the changing rooms and got changed into these rather bright outfits and met up outside in an area Spider assumed to be designated to test their physical abilities going by all the white lines drawn on the ground.

"A quirk assessment test?" the class asked once they'd all gathered and the teacher told them what they were doing out here.

"But Orientation, we're going to miss it." The brunette that entered with Midoriya argued.

"If you're looking to make the big leagues you can't waste time on pointless ceremonies." Aizawa stated. "Here at UA we're not tethered to traditions, that means I get to run my class however I see fit." He turned towards the field. "You've been taking standardised tests most of your lives but you never got to use your quirk in physical exams before, the country's still trying to pretend we're all created equal by not letting those with the most power excel. It's not rational and one day the ministry of education will learn that. As an example of the hardships you will endure at UA the student who scores the lowest on this test will be sent home." Aizawa returned his gaze to the class. "PoisonBlood, you managed-"

"Spider." She cut him off.

"What was that?" He asked threateningly.

"My name is Spider unless you plan on putting the title of 'Ms' before my surname." She clarified.

"Are you looking to be kicked out of UA already?" Aizawa looked her dead in the eyes.

Thing is, Spider was born with the soul of a dragon, a child of Akotosh whose nature was to dominate. Aizawa for all his accomplishments was a mortal and historically speaking when a lone mortal challenged a dragon it ended very badly for the latter. "Am I?" Spider asked as her eyes flashed a dangerous bright green. The air was tense as even though she was a student, Spider refused to back down.

Suddenly Aizawa stepped back and smirked. "There's hope for you guys yet if you're even half as fearless as her." He said as the others looked between each other. "But that's no reason to be insubordinate, interrupt me again and there will be consequences. Understand?"

"Perfectly." She responded.

"Good, now as I was saying Spider before the entrance exam what was your farthest distance thrown with a soft ball when you were in junior high?" Aizawa questioned.

This meant literally nothing to the Dragonborn. "We didn't partake in such tests in my country." She stated carefully

"Hmm, well never mind, try doing it now with your quirk." He gestured to the white outline of a circle to the classes right and tossed her a ball.

Catching it Spider walked into the starting area as the teacher started speaking again. "Anything goes just stay in the circle." He told her. She nodded and thought about her next move.

'I could just throw it into space or...' Spider smiled as a wicked thought entered her mind. Turning to face Aizawa rather than straight ahead where she was supposed to throw it Spider flippantly chucked the ball to her right in that direction but in a way that shouldn't have sent it very far at all, yet in reality the ball soared across the field so fast it broke the sound barrier, creating a visible wind trail behind it.

The class stared after it though Aizawa kept his eyes firmly on his rebellious student. Only to let an ounce of surprise enter his features when Spider took a step back, remaining in the circle but confusing everyone present until the sound of breaking glass and cement caught their attention, everyone barely had time to look when they were blown several feet back by a shockwave emanating from Spider herself. By the time they'd picked themselves up the class could do nothing but try to pick their jaws up off the floor because in Spider's hand she held the ball she'd been given, somehow it was completely unscathed but the same couldn't be said for the school which now had several base ball shaped holes in it.

"40,000 kilometres." A robotic female voice chirped from the device in Aizawa's that he'd amazingly managed to hang on to.

Stepping out of the circle and up to Aizawa Spider pressed the ball into his chest. "How many people do you think I just killed?." She said quietly enough that only he could hear before going back to where the class had gathered again after being knocked back. The answer was zero as she'd placed a spell on release so that the ball would avoid contact with living beings and an after effect which reduced the shockwave of anything it hit so as to not damage any structures too much, but Aizawa didn't need to know that. 'I'm going to enjoy messing with him.' She thought darkly as his eyes caught hers.

It made her chuckle when he rushed away telling them all to 'stay there' while he checked everyone was alright inside the school. Meanwhile she was showered with compliments. Which she pretended to ignore.

"Wow that was unbelievable." A black haired kid with strangely jointed elbows said.

"I can't believe it went all the way around the world and you even caught it!" Spoke the pink girl.

"How are we supposed to compete with that?" Asked a blonde with a black streak in his hair.

"Who cares, look how hot she is." Said the purple midget next to him.

"That was so manly." Spoke a spikey red haired teen that approached Spider. "I'm Eijiro Kirishima." He introduced himself prompting a few others to do the same.

"And I'm Mina Ashido." The pink one said in a lively fashion while leaning on Kirishima's shoulder.

'They must be familiar with each other.' Spider thought briefly.

"I'm Hanta Sero." The one with weird elbow joints stepped up.

"Denki Kaminari." The blonde with a black streak introduced.

'Why is everyone specifically telling me who they are? I mean wouldn't everyone benefit from knowing their names?' She pondered as the short purple haired kid walked towards her.

"And I'm Minoru Mineta, I can't wait to spend more time with you." Hearing him speak again Spider noticed a pronounced lisp that she had somehow missed the first time he said anything but his attitude got an immediate response.

"I'm married." She told him, completely serious which made everyone take a step back and make a loud 'EH!' noise. "Technically I'm a widow but that's not the point." Apparently that was worse than the 'I'm married' statement as now everyone dropped like they'd been struck. "Could we please continue with the introductions before I say anything else." Spider pleaded.

"Right, I'm Mashirao Ojiro." Said the student with a large tail.

"Uhm, I'm Koji Koda." Spoke the large teen with the head shaped like a rock. His voice was high and unusually soft given his build.

"Fumikage Tokoyami." The bird headed teen pitched in while a blackish purple bird thing jumped out of his body to loom over her.

It wasn't looming in a bad way, the thing was just very tall. "I'm Dark Shadow." It said politely while floating around and inspecting her. "She's darker than you Fumi, I can feel the buzzing." It told his partner cryptically before folding itself back into Tokoyami.

"Rikido Sato." Said the stocky boy with large lips, completely ignoring the weird bird encounter.

"Tsuyu Asui, or Tsu if you want to be friends." The girl with long green hair offered.

Spider smiled. "I would love to, provided you don't mind my... passionate attitude." This got a nod in response. 'First day and I have another friend. Might as well call me Luffy with how well I'm doing.' Spider thought proudly.

"Hey, I'm Kyoka Jiro." The girl with odd extensions to her earlobes chimed in.

"And my fabulous self am known as Yuga Aoyama." Spoke the blonde foreign boy with very sparkly eyes.

"Tenya Iida, good to properly meet you all." He said while making a lot of hand movements.

"Hi, I'm Ochaco Uraraka." The cute brunette that was talking with Midoriya earlier spoke up.

"Mezo Shoji." Said the tall guy who looked like a ninja with extra limbs.

"And I'm Toru Hagakure!" Jumped in an energetic girl.

To Spider she looked perfectly normal, the only difference being the slight hazy effect she had around her body telling the Dovahkiin exactly what her quirk was. "You look beautiful." She said getting the girl to stand up straight in surprise. "You're eyes truly are unique."

"H-how do you know?" Hagakure asked hesitantly.

"Because I can see you, invisibility tends works by refracting light around an object or person, because of my quirk I can see you just fine." Spider explained.

"Whoa, no one has ever seen me before, What colour's my hair?" She asked excitedly.

"If you really want to know I'd have to be persuaded to give up a secret you say no one else knows." Spider teased getting the girl to pout.

"Aww no fair." She cried.

Smiling, the Dragonborn looked to the few who hadn't introduced themselves to everyone. "Are you four going to let everyone know your names or what?"

A tall girl with black hair tied back in a ponytail answered. "My name Momo Yaoyorozu." She was met with a round of hellos from those who had already said their own names. then they all looked to the resident mess of green hair.

"Gah, uhm hi. I'm Izuku Midoriya and it's nice to officially meet you all." Midoriya turned a shade redder from his rushed introduction.

"Tsch, I don't know why you're all being friendly when you're nothing more than extras." Bakugo interrupted rudely.

"That's Fifi Midoriya, Izuku's cousin but he doesn't like that information getting out." Spider replied looking the explosive brat the entire time she said it and it was hilarious to watch the veins in his head practically burst from rage. 'He's just too easy.'

The teen was on her in seconds, grabbing Spider's sports uniform and dragging himself closer to her, unfortunately in this form Spider was a little shorter than the boy so he seemed to tower over her. "SHUT THE HELL UP! My name is Katsuki Bakugo and I will be the next number one hero after I've crushed all of you, you got that!" He screamed at her.

Slowly, Spider grabbed his wrist on the arm that was holding onto her and decisively crushed it in her grip causing a sickening crunch to reach the ears of all nearby. Needless to say Bakugo immediately dropped to his knees from the pain as she refused to let go but to his credit the only sounds that escaped his throat were pained gasps and the odd growl.

Kneeling down but still not letting go of his wrist Spider leaned in close. "That's if you survive pissing me off a third time joor." A golden light flowed from the Dovahkiin's hand and swirled around Bakugo and when she released him his wrist was perfectly unharmed. "On the bright side maybe now you'll be more respectful of your peers, after all if you only spend your time looking down on them the faster you'll find they surpass you by working against you, together." It was sad that some people only learned through pain but meh, what could she do since she was also one of those people.

Bakugo quickly stood making another 'tsch' noise and looking away from her.

Apparently Kirishima thought it was prudent to add his input. "I'm a little conflicted, hurting a classmate is definitely unmanly, but using it to better them as a person and fixing the damage after is very manly."

"How about you just stop calling her a man." Ashido elbowed him in the side.

"That's not what I mean." The boy whined looking to Spider for a little help.

'What's he looking at me for, I'm with pink over there.' Spider's inner voice responded. But she sighed and readied an actual 'mature' response. "I know you mean well but sometimes you have to rely on your own judgement rather than that of others, even if they're your friends."

"We're friends now? Cool!" Kirishima fist pumped.

'I don't think that's what I said but of course he wouldn't he take on the life lesson. Not like it's important or anything.' Spider grumbled inwardly.

"Does that mean you consider the rest of us your friends too?" Yaoyorozu asked with her head cocked to the side making the Dovahkiin think she had little understanding of social conduct beyond her home life.

"... Yes, and I hope you consider me the same." Spider said while turning her head to the last member of the class who to this point hadn't said a word, only watched. "Any chance we would we be able to get your name?"

The boy had hair that was white on his right side and red on his left which although strange did suit him, but his face held a passive cold expression. Someone who locked his emotions away in a box around others, not to spite them but in order to protect himself.

"We aren't here to make friends." Was all he said as Aizawa made his return glaring daggers at the cause of his hurried departure.

Spider weighed the pros and cons of replying with their teacher fast approaching and decided to do it anyway. "Careful, an attitude like that can get you killed."

"Detention." Aizawa's voice cut off any response that may have come from the boy with two toned hair.

"For throwing the ball like you asked me to?" Spider inquired.

"Did I stutter?" Aizawa's eyes turned red as his hair defied gravity and Spider could feel a shift in the air. The auras of the other students shifted, showing their super human powers were temporarily locked away.

'Cute trick, shame it doesn't work on me.' Spider's own eyes flashed green again and her pupils transformed into draconic slits, her magic forcing its way through the air and disabling her teacher's quirk causing his eyes to revert back to their original black taking the teacher aback. She quickly blinked changing her own eyes to the emerald orbs she'd carried from her mortal father's side of the family. Before he could demand an answer she spoke up. "Are we going to continue with the test or just stare at each other until class is over?"

His eyes narrowed. "We'll discuss this later."

So with no time to spare they continued applying themselves to a multitude of tests, a fifty meter sprint that Spider was able to essentially cheat by using her thuum 'whirlwind sprint' and clearing it in 0.15 seconds. Sure there were easier ways but it was worth seeing the looks on the other students faces. Next was grip strength. Needless to say the little device broke in her hand, the number stuck at a ten thousand kilograms. She got a talking to about damaging school equipment by Iida for that. The long jump Spider got 30 centimetres as she literally just stepped off the starting line. It was a point of principle that she no longer had to jump at all, she did quite enough of that in her early days when not wanting to use the path and just climb a mountain from the side instead, it took like ten times longer but like hell was she going to give up and walk around. Repeated side steps was a similar issue, without jumping she just stepped slowly from one side to the other getting about 35 in a minute.

The distance run was completed in the same amount of time as the fifty meter sprint since she moved instantaneously with her shout. Sit ups Spider swallowed a little of her pride and actually participated in which is more than she did for the seated toe touch, for that she just lay there and made the odd faux attempt at the exercise.

The last test she got to sit out due to the fact she already did it, a few managed to do particularly well throwing the ball a good distance, Bakugo getting over seven hundred meters, and Ururaka getting infinity thanks to her quirk.

Now it was Midoriya's turn. Spider knew that no matter what, the boy would hardly come in last considering her refusal to take a few of the other tests seriously but he looked nervous none the less.

In a rush of movement Izuku charged his quirk creating lines of red arcing across his arm and threw the soft ball for all he was worth, only the split second before he released, Aizawa erased the boys quirk.

Spider watched as the ball sailed a measly distance compared to other students and in as nonchalant manner as possible made a flicking gesture with her hand causing the ball to gain both speed and distance in no time at all (thank you telekinesis). Once it Landed the device in Aizawa's hand chirped. "622 metres."

Aizawa immediately spun around to face the Dovahkiin who had the most innocent expression she could muster. "Don't even try and deny that was you just now."

'Prove it.' Spider mouthed the words without saying a damn thing.

The disgruntled teacher returned his gaze back to Midoriya who was looking down at his hand muttering about how he was trying to use his quirk just now. "I erased it. The judges for this exam were not rational enough, someone like you should never be allowed to enrol at this school." This caused Midoriya to geek out about who the man was but seriously who thought 'Eraser Head' was good name? Though while he did Aizawa managed to make his capture scarf float around him menacingly. "You're not ready, you don't have control over your power. Were you planning to break your bones again? Counting on someone else to save your useless body?"

'You're treading into dangerous territory hero, any warrior with half a brain could tell you why you're wrong.' Spider's eyes narrowed at the two.

"No that's not what I was trying to do!" Midoriya denied when the capture scarf shot forward from Aizawa and pulled the teen in close to the teacher, restraining him.

"No matter what your intentions are the truth is you would be nothing more than a liability in battle. You have the same reckless passion as another hero I know but even with that drive you're worthless if you can only throw a single punch before breaking down, sorry Midoriya with your power there's no way you can become a hero." He talked down to the boy.

"TIID KLO UL!" Time froze for the world as Spider made her move "You incompetent fool." Spider declared darkly. She was done with this shit. Aizawa was stuck glaring at Midoriya, eyes red with his quirk once again activated, Spider grabbed him from behind, ripping him from the distortion in time and drew her sword slicing through the capture scarf holding her friend. Once he was free Spider threw Aizawa to the floor and brought her daedric blade above his throat. "It is your duty to teach control not criticise his lack of it. And if you believe a single strike cannot change the course of battle then not only are you unworthy of these students, you are useless to me." Spider pulled back her blade slightly allowing the teacher to prop himself up on his elbows. "A hero is not made based on the power they hold, but on their conviction to deliver justice no matter the cost."

"And what about when he fails because he wasted his punch?" Aizawa asked despite being very dazed and confused by time being, you know... stuck.

"Then it will be a reflection of your failure to teach him, unless I'm mistaken that is the primary purpose of this school. Besides that single punch decimated half of a zero pointer, I would very much like to see you take that punch head on and tell me he's a liability as you rest in literal pieces." Her gaze grew more intense as she let her aura of despair leak out from its cage. "If you can't handle teaching one child control then get the hell out of my sight joor." Although it was lost on him Aizawa felt as if his very life was at the mercy of that single word. A creeping dread settling in his very soul the longer he stared up at her.

"What are you?" He managed to gasp out, suddenly feeling his throat constrict.

"I am someone you really do not want to pick a fight with. Start acting like a teacher or I'll be forced to show you just how much worse I can get." Spider started walking back to her original position with the rest of the class but paused half way there. "If you feel the need to tell anyone about our little chat then just remember the extent of my abilities, and that your quirk doesn't work on me."

On her return time steadily began to flow again, everyone looking at Spider until they noticed Aizawa on the floor.

"Sensei! What h-happened?" Midoriya was the first to react offering his hand to help him back up. Unsteadily he took it and rose to his feet looking back at his students, one in particular.

"I fell." Was his only response.

"You should be more careful." Spider stated.

As hard as it was he shook off the stare and looked at Midoriya. "Try again, without taking yourself out in the process. Once you figure that out you might stand a chance."

"Right!" Midoriya replied confidently. He picked out another ball and took his place back in the circle, taking his time to think of a way around his quirk's drawback when he seemed to get an idea as his eyes lit up much like someone else Spider used to know, only his ideas tended to be more... unconventional, like using his own blood to punch a man made of sand. The thought made her smile at the memory.

Gripping the ball tightly Midoriya drew back his arm and followed through with his throw, channelling One For All through his fingertip and launching the ball far into the air while minimising the damage to his body, only a single finger being broken. The trajectory was a little higher than necessary so he lost distance but in the end the little device Aizawa had chirped with his new result. "705.3 metres."

Aizawa surprisingly had a smile tugging at his features like he was actually semi proud of the kid while Midoriya looked fiercely confident as he looked at his teacher. "Mr Aizawa, you see I'm still standing."

Seeing as that was basically the end of the tests everyone lined up as Aizawa stood in front of them, as far away from Spider as he could get without being suspicious, that feeling of fear hadn't quite left him yet and it was difficult to speak past the lump in his throat from the glare she had levelled at him. "Alright I've ranked you're scores and rather than call them out individually you can just look at where you placed." As he said it the device in his hand projected a scoreboard showing everyone's results.

Spider barely looked only seeing that she came in somewhere in the top middle section due to her lower scores and that Midoriya came in 16th place ahead of a few classmates including the short purple ball haired kid who came last. It was no surprise really since the little guy only had one good score with the side step exercise and barely had the physicality for any of the others.

"Also no one's going to be expelled. That was just a rational deception to make sure you gave it your all in the tests." Aizawa had that creepy smile again.

"WHAT!" Half the class cried in disbelief.

"There's a syllabus in the class room so go pick it up, and Midoriya go see the old lady to fix up your-" He stopped when he noticed his student's previously damaged digit was now perfectly fine.

"Oh there's no need, Spider healed me while you were talking." Midoriya replied.

"Wait you have a healing quirk too?" Ashido asked from next to Spider.

"My 'quirk' covers a range of abilities." Spider told her.

"Whatever, we're done for the day." Aizawa stated as he walked away. "Get ready because tomorrow is when the real training starts."

Having changed and collected the syllabus Midoriya left with Iida and Ururaka while Spider stayed at the school. After the other students had all but left she knocked on the door to the teachers lounge finding Aizawa, a man who looked to be made of blocks of cement, and a woman who's hero costume was more erotic than necessary. Having looked at the syllabus they'd provided Spider knew they were Cementoss and Midnight respectively. All of them looked up and Aizawa visibly flinched as he caught her eyes.

"You wanted to see me." Spider said in a bored tone. "Just try not to ask the same boring questions everyone else does."

It was quiet for a minute, the other two were confused while Eraser Head looked thoughtful. "Are you a danger to the other students?"

"You saw for yourself I'd stand up for them at a moments notice when you were being less than fair." Spider replied, slightly more interested in the conversation.

"Is that what you'd call it?" Aizawa questioned.

"It was idiocy at best and a malicious plot at worst." Spider informed him gaining even more confused looks. "Izuku has a keen mind, if you knew him for more than five minutes you'd see that once he's analysed a threat he can systematically calculate the best possible solution to take them out. Permanently." She let that sink in before continuing. "Telling him that he wouldn't make it as a hero like you did could have back fired severely and his quirk, now that he has one, is more powerful than anyone's here, if you don't include mine. After he's learned to control it, which he will. If you kicked him out then the likelihood of him becoming a villain none of you would be able to stop is rather high. So like I said, idiocy at best and malicious plot at worst."

"Hold on a minute let's take this one problem at a time, he only got his quirk recently?" Midnight asked in a concerned tone.

"That's why he couldn't control it? No wonder he's breaking his bones, the kid's probably lucky he didn't come out any worse." Aizawa said writing something down in a notebook he had at his desk.

"Is this 'Izuku' at risk of becoming dangerous to he other students?" Cementoss inquired.

"And what makes you think none of us would be able to stop him, even with his quirk he wouldn't be able to stop all of us." Midnight continued.

"If you caught him early enough that he didn't have full control I admit you'd have a chance. If he were alone." Spider conceded.

"What do you mean 'if' he was alone." Cementoss asked.

"Wherever he goes I do too, he aspires to be a hero so I'll help him but hypothetically if he changes sides I'll be right beside him." Spider warned. "And I think you all know how bad that would be."

"Are you threatening us?" Midnight stood to face her.

"No, I'm stating a fact. If you're lack of support causes Midoriya to become a villain then I'll be the one to keep him safe from you until he's ready to stand against you on his own." Spider practically dared the heroine to take another step only for Aizawa to intervene.

"Fine, we get that you're protective. Now that I understand a little more of his situation I can be more supportive to Midoriya, starting by getting him quirk counselling as soon as possible but don't expect me to completely change my style of teaching, that includes my low tolerance for interruptions and threats." He said.

"So long as you understand that if you lay a hand on him again, I'll have your head." She agreed and gave the room a sweeping gaze. "Have a good day." Spider closed the door as she turned to leave and headed out. 'Hopefully they got the message.'


So... I know I'm far from being the best writer and I suck at conveying complex relationships in a realistic way but if you can look past that and just enjoy an OP character having fun then that'd be great.

Thank you for reading.
