A/N: All of the Stand users are characters from BNHA, maybe some users from jojo will appear later so I don't have to make OC's, that way if you want to better visualize a character you can easily look them up. Eventually BNHA Stand users will have more unique stands in the future of the story. Review any ideas.

Izuku couldn't believe what was happening. It had been three days since the Sludge Villain Incident, and here he was on Dagobah beach in the early hours of the morning before the sun could even rise. All-Might had told Izuku that he would pass his quirk down unto the boy, and that he would sculpt Izuku into a hero. The green haired boy didn't know how he felt about that - he didn't even know if he wanted to be a hero anymore - but if he could be as strong as All-Might and utilize it with his stand, he could be in the top ten heroes before he even passed his first year at U.A... In the end the fact of the matter was All-Might didn't see any value in the boy until he offered to give him One for All - a quirkless Izuku was still nothing.

He waited on the beach for All-Might as the time approached five o'clock, they were supposed to meet at five in the morning, but Izuku had got there an hour earlier - debating whether or not he should tell All-Might about The World. Enyaba did say not to tell anyone about it, and considering the Hero Commission was after the Stand Arrow too, there was no doubt that they would put All-Might on the retrieval of the arrow, as one of his number one priorities. He would hold off for now. Izuku looked out over the moonlit beach, the cold breeze of the ocean air blowing through his hair, making Izuku shiver to his core as the normal melancholy thoughts came back to the front of his mind.

All-MIght said that the goal was to get Izuku into the U.A., and make him the future number one hero, but Izuku wondered if he would make friends during his time at the school. See, it was a problem for him to make friends - because they would all be born with their quirks, which means they wouldn't really know what it was like to be quirkless for most of their life. If Izuku becomes friends with them, then what if he loses his focus? What if he became too adapted to having a quirk that he ended up forgetting what it was like to be quirkless? Then he would either forget or stop caring about the reason why he wanted to become powerful, and for the rest of the quirkless world, they would just be left without a voice… in short, Izuku wasn't sure if he was ready to leave the quirkless world behind him.

'This is all new to me, but it just sucks there isnt anyone else who went through this…' Izuku thought. All-Might was born quirkless but he never mentioned getting bullied relentlessly.

The greenette crouched in the sand and looked at the stars above. He felt like he no longer belonged in either group - no matter how the cloth was cut he would be seen as an outsider to both the quirk population and the quirkless, someone undeserving of their power. Besides, what would his mom say if it turned out he had a quirk, would she hate herself for saying her son couldn't be a hero? What about Bakugou? He would for sure be pissed if it turned out Izuku really manifested a stand so late - he'd find a way to bully him about it. The loneliness resonated in Izuku's core, making him want to cry.

'I really do feel like a failure sometimes,' Izuku told himself. 'It-'

He shook the thoughts out of his head as All-Might fell from the sky and landed beside him, blasting sand up into the air. Izuku harshly wiped the sand from his eyes, at least if he was asked why he was crying he could blame it on the sand.

"Sorry about that young Midoriya, I am surprised to see you out here so early!" All-Might exclaimed.

"I'm just so excited!" Izuku lied jumping up, in reality he couldn't have been more anxious. If a Stand and a quirk turned out to be incompatible, would he lose one forever? He couldn't imagine telling either Enyaba or All-Might that the ability they gave him was gone forever - it was stressful he had no information to go off of.

"Good!" All-Might responded. "The first thing you must realize is that One For All is a stockpiling quirk that gets stronger with each generation it is passed down, and the longer it is held. I have cultivated this quirk for many years, so it's power is greatly stronger from when I first gained it."

All-Might picked up a refrigerator from the ground and lifted it up with a single hand, then balanced it on the tip of one finger.

"Imagine that my finger is your body, and lifting this refrigerator requires even a fraction of a fraction of the power of One for All. Now if you were to use the same amount of power flowing through my finger, through your body, you would explode." All-Might said.

"W-what!" Izuku's eyes widened.

"Like I said, the power of One For All has greatly increased over the time I've had it, so the body that hosts it must be strong enough to handle it without blowing itself apart. By the time of the entrance exam, you will clear this entire section beach of trash!" All-Might lowered the refrigerator onto Izuku's back, causing the boy to crash into the sand. All-Might quickly picked it back up. "Sorry my boy, that might have been too much to start with. Start with what you can handle and work your way up to the bigger pieces of scrap. You must also change your diet to keep up with the needs of your body."

"I have already made a strict plan for you to follow, when you will do certain activities, when and what you will need to eat." He pulled out some papers and handed them to Izuku. "You'll have a body like mine in no time!"

"I don't know," Izuku started. "I don't know if I can afford al-"

"I will organize the groceries, you are my apprentice afterall." All-Might explained. Izuku waved his hands in disagreement. There was no way he could accept a handout from him, it made him feel… useless. "No worries, there is no way I can spend all of the money I've earned through my hero work even with all the charitable donations I've made. You don't have enough time to decline my kindness, the entrance exam is a few months away."

Izuku thought for a moment. Maybe he could count on All-Might - he just needed to think of a plan to explain the concept of Stands to the man - - one day though, now was still to soon considering...

Izuku scratched the back of his head nervously - maybe if he convinced himself that All-Might's money was payment for cleaning the beach. Izuku brought up his clenched fist and raised it to the trash filled beach.

"I won't let you down."

-x-

Izuku's body burned more than it ever had after he spent the last seven hours moving small pieces of trash from the beach as well as doing the exercises All-Might directed him to do. They only wrapped it up due to Izuku's inability to move his muscles any longer but the fact that a wimpy kid like him could keep going so long was a beautiful sight for All-Might. The number-one hero offered to take Izuku out for lunch but he had to decline.

'My mom was off work today which doesn't happen much, so I would like to spend as much time with her today as i can.' Is what Izuku told him, though the feeling of lying and getting away with it made his stomach ache.

Last night Izuku noticed a note was tucked under his window, a message from Enyaba telling him to meet her at some abandoned place not far from where he lived, about an hour of walking - it was time for him to learn how to properly use his stand. It was an agonizing walk after his exercise, but the pain had dulled down - he could've already been there by train but Enyaba really wanted him to avoid any public transit with cameras that could identify him. He arrived in a small section of a city that had been abandoned in a recent villain attack, but he couldn't imagine a permanent base here if reconstruction would start soon. Izuku didn't know which building it was that she wanted him to show up to - until he saw some scary looking man standing at the glass door of an abandoned office building - as if they were keeping watch. There was nothing weird about a random teenage boy walking up to a random person in an abandoned building area and asking him about some old lady, right?

As Izuku got closer, he regretted approaching the man. His skin was dark brown and cracked like he was decaying. He had bandages wrapped around his waist and parts of his arms and head. His eyes were a sickly yellow and it looked like part of his head was mechanical - the strangest part was as Izuku got closer the more two-dimensional the man appeared, as if he were trapped in the glass itself. Another figure approached from behind the door, as the man trapped in glass faded away - the person approaching was even uglier, but he opened the door and spoke to Izuku.

"So you must be the kid my mother won't shut the hell up about. I see you've met my stand have you?"

He smiled, causing Izuku to cover his mouth the keep from throwing up at the smell of the man's breath. The man was bald and sported a muddy green vest and a grey tank top underneath - Izuku couldn't tell if it was naturally grey or if the man just never washed his clothes, though deep down he knew it was probably the latter. The man had two right hands - just like his mother. His milky eyes looked down on Izuku and his smile had only four teeth in it.

'I don't want to be mean but,' Izuku thought, 'If all the stand users look dirty like this then I don't know if I want to hang around them.'

"Ummm, yes? I don't know if i'm in the right spot so i'm just going to lea-"

"Izuku!" The green haired boy would recognize that cackling voice anywhere, as Enyaba arrived to invite him into the building. "If you are to be one of us then it is time you meet the other Stand Users."

A chill went down Izuku's spine - was he really being indoctrinated into the circle of Stand User's today? Izuku realized that he would probably be at home with them more than the heroes or villains but he couldn't really say he trusted them, he didn't really trust anyone to be honest but the Stand Users put a different kind of anxiety in him, more lawless than most villain groups.

"This is our temporary hide out," Enyaba grumbled. "For now we must migrate like roaches, there are eyes and ears from both sides trying to locate us. It is extremely rare for all of us stand users to come together - as it is dangerous to have your eggs all in one basket. Come, boy."

Enyaba led him through the halls of the building, Izuku could feel the hot breath of Enyaba's son on the back of his neck. They reached office number three-hundred where all of the Stand Users were waiting - they all looked pissed off and annoyed that they were called to a meeting like this. There were only four of them besides Enyaba and her son, two looking villainous and two looking pretty decent. The room was pretty run down, pictures had fallen off the wall, glass display cases smashed and varioust items strewn about there were a a couple couches and chairs in the room - it was probably the office of someone important.

"Let me introduce you to the users. We refer to ourselves by our stand names, we must do what we can to keep information about each other out of the public." Enyaba pointed to her own son. "This is Centerfold, his stand travels through reflections."

"This is Spice Girl." Enyaba pointed to a short girl with two pink pigtails, her eyes heavily outlined with eyeliner and a white bow around her neck. She looked like she worked at a circus.

"For the last time, I refuse to go by that name m'lady, you can instead call me the Gentle Criminal - an alias is an alias, correct? My stand can soften any object - which is the same ability as my quirk. " An older man, his hair a ghostly white and his mustache curled up at the ends, the collar of his coat was unrealistically high and a purple scarf hugged his neck - if the girl was a worker then he was the circus showman.

Enyaba furrowed her eyebrows and gritted her teeth. Izuku didn't see anything wrong with Gentle not wanting to be called Spice Girl, but Enyaba wanted her word to be uncontested in the group. Was wanting to choose your own moniker really something worked up over? Though Izuku did have to wonder - if Gental shared the same stand ability as his quirk, did that mean that Stand Abilities were based on quirk abilities? Gentle held out his hand and Izuku gave it a shake - the pink haired girl gave him a smile. He definitely felt more comfortable around them than the other two in the room, maybe being a part of this group wouldn't be so bad.

"Him over there, he's a good one," Enyaba changed the subject instead of letting her anger overflow. The man in question was wrapped entirely in a black cloth and bound with leather straps - except his mouth, which was held open by leather straps wrapped around his head. "That over there is Moonfish, but his stand name is Grateful Dead, the ability to age anyone nearby, until they die of old age. His quirk lets him extend his teeth and control them freely."

Moonfish writhed around and gnashed his teeth, drool flinging everywhere. The man next to him was massive, even bigger than All-MIght - he grabbed Moonfish by the head and lifted him up.

"Will you stop yapping already will ya?!" He yelled.

"That is Muscular, his stand name is The Hand, he can scrap away anything into the void!" Enyaba seemed proud announcing his name. "His brute strength combined with his stand makes him unrivaled."

"And last but not least, Hawk-" She stopped herself when she realized the chair she was pointing to was emptied. "WHERE THE HELL IS HAWKS I TOLD EVERYONE TO BE HERE TODAY!"

Izuku just scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

"This child here manifested a stand stronger than any of you and he's not here to witness it?" Enyaba fumed, at her outrageous claims everyone perked up.

"Hopefully it is more gentlemanly than the other two." Gentle said.

"Can it give me a good fight?" Muscular punched his fists together. "Let's find out!"

"Hold on!" Enyaba exclaimed, but Muscular was still starting to stand. The man walked right up in front of Izuku. "Now wait just a minute you imbecile, you big buffoon, we can't go wrecking the place or the heroes will find us!"

Izuku could feel the murderous intent radiating from the man towering in front of him. He didn't know what he was expecting from the group of Stand Users but really only Gentle and La Brava seemed like the only sane people here.

"Wait, I-i have no idea what's going on!" Izuku finally spoke for the first time since being introduced, taking a step back from Muscular. "I don't want to cause any problems or anything!"

"He can't use his stand yet, he is here to train and help us with our cause." Enyaba explained.

"About time for some new characters, wouldn't you agree with me La Brava?" Gentle asked his little sidekick. She nodded. Izuku wondered if there wasn't a reason she wasn't speaking. "Things have been rather stale here lately."

"W-what is your cause?" Izuku asked?

"Its a long story kid," Enyaba muttered. " The jist of it is thousands of years ago this arrow was fashioned out of a meteorite, and granted those shot with it either a stand or it would kill them… it went missing for many years until it was discovered in Egypt almost thirty-five years ago since then they have been resurfacing here and there. Now I've managed to get my hands on it!"

"But the power of this arrow has been sought after by the Hero Commission and League of Villains for years." Enyaba explained. "Could you even imagine what would happen if it were to happen to fall into the hands of either faction? Unstoppable heroes and villain razing cities, being able to rule with an iron fist and without question."

'I can see that happening,' Izuku thought - just look at the current hero rankings, it was all about being the strongest and rising to fame, saving helpless citizens in a flashy display as if to say 'hey, look at me saving these people who are powerless'. He didn't even want to imagine the power struggle if the top heroes became Stand Users. The only thing Izuku could see as a solution was destroying the arrow completely but he had the feeling that Enyaba wouldn't like that idea, at all.

"So w-what is our plan? Like our group plan?" Izuku asked. He already knew it probably had to do with seizing power and all the stereotypical villainous mumbo-jumbo, but some of these people didnt seem like the type to really work with a team, namely Muscular and Moonfish.

"To to sleaze power and dismantle the Hero Comission and the various groups of villain associations, and we shall become the ones to stand on top of soci-"

"Yeah we've heard it a thousand times," Muscular cut her off. "If that's all you're gonna keep yapping on about, I've got some murdering to take care of."

He picked up moonfish and jumped through the window. Izuku was haunted by the fact that Muscular could causally end someone life on a whim. It was harrowing that out of the millions of people in Japan, a few of them were out there right now not knowing they would run in to Muscular and not wake up tomorrow.

"He couldn't have just used the door?" La Brava mused, Gentle nodding once in agreement.

"We all have our own reasons to join Enyaba here, even if our friend Muscular's reason is of the most ungentlemanly like, working together with those unscrupulous type," Gentle motioned to Enyaba. "Can benefit everyone. Since the others have taken their leave, La Brava and I have matters to attend to as well. I look forward to seeing you around."

After they left, Izuku was left alone with Enyaba. Her wrinkled eyes beamed at him. "So what do you think about your new comrades? Be honest."

Izuku pondered for a moment, thinking about each and every one.

"Well, Gentle and La brava seem like the most useful, though since you didn't say La Brava's stand name I assume she doesnt have one but she is here because she is loyal to Gentle." Izuku spouted off. "Moonfish and Muscular might be a detriment to the plans you have, Moonfish seems mentally unstable and if Muscular wants to fight every new stand user then it will build a lot of distrust between the group. He seems reckless too, if he goes around murdering people he could put heat on the other Stand Users, or even he could rampage and kill us."

"I see you have a good intuition." Enyaba said. "Muscular has a powerful quirk and a deadly stand, if he were to rampage during one of our meetings he could take out a fair number of us, which is partially a reason why we rarely meet like this, but he is the unmatched powerhouse we need - - but as we get more and more stand users he becomes more of pawn. You see most of the users here are worthless in the grand scheme, I've already created new Stand Users, they need a day or two to adapt but we will not be having a meeting like this for a while. I have ways of sending messages to our members reguardless of where they are. "

Izuku nodded, he would always take notes on heroes, but he made a mental note to start writing about the Stand Users as soon as possible. He scratched his chin. "What about the Stand Arrow? Are we going out to make new stand users today?"

"No, I keep that in a very safe location, you think I trust these imbeciles enough to carry the stand arrow around me?" Enyaba asked.

'I supposed I wouldnt either.' Izuku thought.

"There could be a mole in our little gathering. Anyone of them." Enyaba said.

"Even your son? By the way I didn't notice him leave either…" Izuku muttered out loud when he meant to think it.

"My loving little baby would never betray fear mother! He's probably looking for a new girlfriend, he's quite the ladies man wouldn't you say?" Enyaba laughed. Izuku sincerely doubted that any woman would legitimately want to date her son but he nodded anyways. "But enough small talk now, I must explain the most important points of stands to you before you begin training."

"Stands have a strong resistant to quirks and physical attacks, but Stands are strong against other Stands. If you are fighting a Stand user, if it is a weaker Stand you can win with a quirk, but Stands are far more effecin the battle." Enyaba explained. It made sense. If Quirks were physiological, and Stands were spiritual, then it makes sense a spirit would be strong on another spirit - it would be like a human trying to fight a ghost barehanded.

"Different stands have different attributes and abilities, some stands have high hitting power, but a weak special ability. Usually the higher your attributes like strength, the weaker your ability." Enyaba said. "Muscular's stand has very low durability and strength, but the ability to use its hand to scrape away space and matter is extremely powerful in the way he uses it. Stands emit powerful aura which you can read to tell its attributes. Your stand has a massive aura, which means it has superior strength, speed and durability, but more than likely that would mean it will have a no or a weak ability - most stands will have moderate attributes and a moderate ability, which are made deadly by their utilisation."

"Y-you said my stand was powerful, right? You only meant strength wise" Izuku asked. If he only had super strength then that would hurt his chances of being the number one hero - then he suddenly remembered that he was getting All-might's quirk as well, so maybe a weak ability wasn't horrible but he was really hoping his Stand ability was amazing. He was already inheriting the strength of All-Might, a strong ghost floating behind him wouldn't make a big difference.

"Yes, that is correct, your stand is stronger than Muscular is strength wise - but even a weak ability will make you a top tier stand user." Enyaba said. Izuku looked back on her overreaction back when she first saw his stand, and now he felt underwhelmed. A glint shined in Enyaba's eyes. "But even with your amazing stand attributes your aura is completely overwhelming, The World is a king of stands so I can tell you will have a superior ability as well. Your stand born to be a killer of anyone who opposes you."

"A k-killer? You want me to be a killer? I can't even summon my stand!" Izuku didn't know if he could even make himself take a life if he had to.

"You're too soft, you won't be able to utilize your stand that way. That's why for you to become a killer you must train with one." Enyaba told him. Would it be Muscular? Izuku was worried he would actually end up dead if that were the case. He felt a cold presence raise the hairs on the back of his neck - he hadn't heard anyone enter the room, in fact the door was in his line of sight and nobody had come in or out.

He felt a slight stinging on his cheek as The World materialized in front of him to defend his user, and it threw a punch to hit someone behind Izuku but the golden stand suddenly stopped, and Izuku realized that all of the sudden he couldn't move either, his body paralyzed to the point he had difficulty even breathing. He started to panic as a wave a terror washed over him

'What did I get myself into?' Izuku cried internally. 'I don't want to kill anyone and I definitely dont want to get killed!''

"This is the Stand User I'm training? It's just a kid… very well." A gruff voice sighed from behind him. Izuku regained the feeling in his limbs - it had to be the work of an enemy stand or quirk. He turned and could almost see the black aura radiating off the man, and his eyes widened. "If you don't master summoning your stand by the end of the day, I'll kill you."

A lithe stand stood behind the man, its black armour glistening and red eyes glaring from behind the helmet. The body seemed more mechanical than organic like the few other stands Izuku had seen.

"Perhaps the most infamous of us…" Enyaba announced.

"Hero Killer Stain and his stand, Black Chariot."
