Friends in UA

by YuniTheChild

BNHA is an awesome anime but if you were expecting a one oc fanfic you should find one. With this rag tag group of eight, come enjoy the life of UA students that don't necessarily belong there. Salena, Tarran, Mame, Terra, Jordan, Rosa, and Victoria are just some friends in U.A. BTW: I wrote this in Wattpad first so go there for ease. Good Luck. I hate this site...

~Introductions of Past~

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE: 5)

I woke to the sun stretching through my curtains early in the morning. I rubbed my dark purplish eyes from below my blanket burrito. I was about to go back to sleep when I realized what day it was. I sat up quickly and stood up light headed.

I stumbled out of my room and ran around the corner to my mommy and daddy's room. Slowly I knocked on the door and heard a groan. My dad came to the door and pet me on the head.

"Hey Twinkle," he said teasingly, "What did you need? Did you have a nightmare again?"

I whined, "Nuuuuu. It's the first day of preschool! I want to go right now! Please!"

He chuckled and crouched down to my eyes, "You excited to be a big girl?"

He flexed at me and I giggled before nodding excitedly, "Are you excited to find out what your quirk is," he got into another pose, again I laughed happily.

"I want to be a hero like Daddy," I exclaimed, getting into my own pose. Mommy came out in a bathrobe and smiled sweetly at the interaction.

"What about mommy," she asked me sounding fakely offended, "Don't you want to help with investigations and police work?"

I nodded, "I'm going to be a hero detective!"

My parents laughed and smiled. I smiled my biggest smile to out shine them. My dad took it as a challenge, "Let's see who can smile the longest Twinkle."

I giggled at my nickname and nodded exaggeratingly, "I'll win."

"Well let's get dressed, Pretty. Don't want to be late," Mommy picked me up and we touched our noses together.

She carried me to my room and set my clothes out before helping. I held my arms up above my head so she could slip the pale blue dress over my black hair. I stepped over the light yellow shorts then tried to pull them up, but they went over my dress. I tugged on my mommy's robe and pointed to the bunches. She laughed a light-hearted laugh before straightening it out.

She waved her hands around me, "Ta Da! All done and ready to go to school!"

I pointed to her robe, "No we aren't! Mommy hasn't gotten dressed yet!"

She looked down exasperated, "Goodness, you're right! Go into the kitchen and eat breakfast with daddy while I get dressed."

Still smiling, I ran downstairs to the kitchen and climbed up onto the barstool beside my daddy, who was already dressed in his disguise. My daddy was the number 11 hero, sure, not the best but to me he was number 1. I'd get posters of him and color over the last one in 11 so it would say, "Sand Grinder, The Number 1 Hero!"

My daddy's quirk was awesome! He could move and manipulate sand and dirt stuff. My mommy's quirk happens when she touches someone without her special gloves on that she always wears. She can heat her hands up so hot to melt most metals. I'm only four and a month old so I get to go to the doctor's office as soon as the results come in. I shake with excitement at that thought and dig into my cereal.

My mommy came out with a trench coat and her purse, "You ready to get going big girl?"

I nod and run over to the entrance to put on my velcros. Mommy and Daddy quickly slide on their shoes and boots before holding my hands and following me outside. I jumped into the car and let Daddy buckle me in. He climbs into the passenger side and I start singing a song I heard on the radio.

"My heart's a stereo!"

"It beats for you so listen close!"

"Hear my thoughts in every note!"

"Yeah," my daddy joins in."

"Just sing along to my stereo," I started on the chorus forgetting the rest of the beginning.

"Gym class heroes baby," my daddy started to sing really fast, "If I was just another dusty record on the shelf, would you blow me off and play me like everybody else."

Mommy hummed along with him, "Yeah…"

"If I asked to scratch my back could you manage that? Like it. Eh, yea. Check it trouty."

"HmmMmmm."

"I can handle that, furthermore, I apologize for any skipping tracks. It's just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks. I used to- used to- used to- used to now I'm over that. Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts."

My mommy sang the chorus," If I could only find a note to make you understand. I'd sing softly and grab you by the hand..."

My dad rapped again and soon we were all singing the song together and laughing. I'd cherish these moments forever, I knew that much. We arrived at the preschool and I unbuckled myself before my parents could even think. I opened the door and stared in amazement at my new preschool.

I was the only new student here since it was the middle of the preschool year. I grabbed my daddy and mommy's hands and dragged them in with me. They laughed following me quickly to the main office. I bounced up and down, still trying to smile and beat my daddy at our game.

The teacher led us to the classroom and left me in the hall to say goodbye to my parents. I smiled at them with shaking hands and felt tears spring into my eyes.

"Will you come pick me up immediately," I asked, trying to keep it in so I wouldn't lose.

My parents smiled at me and gave me two big hugs. Mommy answered, "Of course, Mommy and Daddy will be right outside waiting for you."

I stuck my tongue out at them, "Buh-bye I'm going to make a bunch of friends!"

"Yes you will! Bye now Salena!"

"Bye Twinkle! I'll see you after school!"

With that I took a timid step through the door into my classroom.

Victoria's P.O.V. (AGE: 5)

I stuck my tongue out at a bully in my preschool class. They were so mean to me!

"Okay class," teacher called out across the classroom," Thank you. We have a new student that is coming in with us. Her name is Salena Katike. Please treat her as your friend and take care of her in our class!"

A young girl with black hair and translucent periwinkle eyes walked in slowly. She was shaking uncontrollably and smiling very wide. She looked completely terrified. I stood up and grabbed her wrist. She looked at me and smiled while I led her to the carpet.

"Alright class let's go over the rules for Salena and then we can go outside and look for objects to use in our art projects."

"Hai Teacher," the whole class called.

As the teacher went over the rules I leaned over to whisper to Salena, "My name's Victoria! You can call me Ria-chan! I'm four and a half."

Salena smiled brightly, "I'm Salena but you can call me Lena-chan. I turned four last month."

Teacher finished up and let us outside in the yard. Lena and I walked around the grounds trying to find sticks and leaves when someone called out loudly.

"You trip over everything! You really are useless, aren't you Deku!?"

"Who was that," Lena said.

I rolled my eyes, "That was Kacchan. He got an explody quirk and now he thinks he can bully anyone."

Lena took off in the direction of the comotion. I followed her filled with curiosity. We walked over to the sandbox where Izuku was sitting on the floor near tears. He had a smile on his face but his knees were bleeding.

Kacchan sparked his quirk in front of him and Izuku flinched slightly. Lena walked over and stood in between Kacchan and Izuku.

"You're being mean," Lena shook.

Kacchan hesitated a twitch and put his hands down. He tilted his head to the side a bit. No one had ever stood up to him or called him mean. Lena offered her hand to Izuku and helped him up. Then she did something super unexpected.

She grabbed Kacchan and Izuku's hands then put them together. She nodded and yelled, "Friends Again!"

Kacchan and Izuku stared at her. She skipped over to me again and waved them goodbye, "Now you're friends again, okay!?"

We left the boys in the sandbox utterly confused. I giggled about it the entire time. Lena-chan and I found two leaves, five sticks, a button, and a weird looking crayon. I stared at our finds and left the crayon, a leaf, and three sticks for her. She smiled widely when I said she could have the crayon.

Teacher called us back in and we all sat down at our assigned tables. Lena and I were at a table with Kacchan and another boy. Lena was humming while drawing and I was just listening. Kacchan seemed to enjoy it as well, but the other boy acted like it was super annoying.

"Can you please stop humming," the boy snapped, "It's really annoying and stupid."

Kacchan spat back, "No it's not! Lena-chan is a good singer!"

All of us were surprised at Kacchan's outburst. Lena shrugged it off and asked the boy if he would just like a different song. The boy hung his head in defeat and nodded. He requested a weird song called "Faded" and amazingly she knew it. She started humming the notes and soon Kacchan and I were requesting songs too.

We all were talking and smiling the entire time. Teacher asked us to bring up our painting. We could only use the objects and our hands so it was an interesting array of brightly colored paintings. I painted with pink and used the two sticks to make a flamingo. I used the leave as the beak and my hand prints were the body.

"Whoa Ria-chan," Lena gasped, "It's sooo pretty! What animal is that?"

"A flamingo!"

"It's amazing!"

I blushed a bit in embarrassment, "What did you make?"

She showed me a messy painting of sandy colors. Pointing to the stick stick-figures she explained that it was her dad, her mom, and herself. She said that her dad was a hero and her mom was a detective.

"So cool," I cooed looking at how she used her leaf and crayon to make a sandy texture. It didn't feel like it but it looked like it, thanks to the crayon being a brown color. Kacchan was bragging to Izuku and his posie about his drawing. They 'whoaed' and 'wowed'.

"Kacchan can we see your drawing," Lena exclaimed excitedly.

He turned around and nodded confidently, "It's super awesome! Even more awesome than Vicky-chan's."

I smirked, "I'd like to see it, too, please."

He revealed an amazing drawing of what looked like an explosion and two stick figures.

Lena and I leaned forward to see it closer. He had used red, orange, yellow, and black paint for the explosion. The people were merely outlines but to a four year old it was an absolute work of art. I pointed at the people asking for an explanation. He blushed a bit and just said that they were his parents. I nodded suspiciously.

Teacher gathered our artworks and put them across the chalkboard lining. We all looked at them in awe. And just like that it was time to clean up and go home. I went to my cubby and strapped on my lime green backpack. Lena-chan grabbed her bunny backpack and grabbed my hand to follow me outside.

We ran out and looked around for our parents. Lena-chan led me over to a jean grey Volvo 200 series. I admired the sleek look that it had. For it's age it looked super nice and in great shape. The Engine was working great and so was the breaking, steering, airbag, and lights. The only thing that was wrong was that they were going to have to change the oil soon.

A couple stepped out and scooped Lena in a huge bear hug. The man was very muscular with black hair lined with gray. His eyes were grayish-blue but his smile was just as bright as Lena-chan. I looked at the woman ogling over Lena-chan. Her hair was somewhat of a dark grayish blonde. She was wearing a long trench coat tied tightly around her waist, showing off her curves.

Now her eyes were totally Lena-chan's. The color, the sparkle, everything.

"Victoria," my mommy called my name.

I waved bye to Lena-chan who got down and gave me a hug which I returned. I ran over to my mommy and jumped into her arms. She snuggled me and asked me about my day.

"It was amazing," I exclaimed, "I got to paint another flamingo in class with my hands. And I made a new friend!"

I showed her my pinkish hands and she just chuckled before strapping me into my car seat. I shook with excitement with the thought of what tomorrow had to come.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE:4)

I shook my head slightly when I sat up, hoping to get some of the bedhead out. I looked around at my room before stretching and standing up. Some people's rooms definitely show their personalities, mine is one of those. It was adorned in posters of All Might, Midnight, Nezu, and other popular pro heroes. I even had a rare Eraserhead poster.

I had been trying to learn to write so I could start a journal thingy about them.

I was almost five now and my quirk had yet to manifest but the doctors told my mom that I would probably be a late bloomer. I wasn't very worried about it, after all it wouldn't affect me much if it manifested while I was five or even six. It's not like they train you that young to use your quirk, just to control it enough to not set fire to something.

I stopped in front of my closet and grabbed my soft maroon preschool dress. White shorts and a white headband that accompanied the dress and shoes. Shaking my shoulder length hair out of the headband's back I pulled my door open and found my papa already sitting at the breakfast table. He noticed me and murmured a good morning. Neither of my parents were very active in the morning so this was a regular sight.

I climbed under the Kotasu's tablecloth and ate the small eggs and pancakes that June had prepared for me. June is my older sister but she's already a hero so I don't see her much at all. She makes breakfast and then leaves for patrol. Finishing up I tugged on my papa's work shirt for him to take me to school. My papa was a very important part of the police force. He could see heat signatures. He was wearing a navy blue, ironed shirt and ironed tan pants.

He followed me to the front door, smiling softly. We were careful to be silent because if we woke up mom she would kill us. She was always staying late at her office. Then again that was because being an info broker is a very important job to the heroes. Without them, half the crimes wouldn't be found and/or solved. Papa walked me to the preschool two blocks away.

"Papa," I complained, "Why do I have to go to school?"

He thought for a minute, "Well if you didn't go to school, you couldn't go to middle school, then you couldn't go to highschool or U.A. high."

My eyes widened, "I love school so much!"

He chuckled and ruffled up my hair. We held hands and traveled the long way to school. I stopped halfway to do hopscotch really quickly. My papa watched me as I happily played the simple game.

"Why is it you aren't so annoyed by the fact of being a late bloomer?"

I stopped and looked at him, "Well I guess it's because being a late bloomer is better than being quirkless. Which might I remind you is 20% of the population."

He seemed surprised I knew the statistics. But then he remembered I absolutely love quirks and heroes. We finally made it to the stone building and entered my classroom. I ran around the room looking around and meeting my classmates.

I looked around for a certain girl though. I'd met her during the summer and she said that she would be going to this preschool. Suddenly I saw her unforgettable bouncy white hair entering the room.

"Rosa," I cried out to her.

"Alexa," She yelled back to me. We hugged and looked around some more together. Apparently Rosa had been here for more than 15 minutes before me. She had been in the restroom when I came in. Rosa was just barely older than me by like a month.

Rosa pointed out that there was an empty cubby by hers and I immediately raced to place my backpack in the slot. I placed the All Might backpack in the cubby and went back to Rosa. I sat beside Rosa and watched her doodle cats before class. She already knew her quirk and it was awesome. She could animate different objects and they would walk over to help her.

One time at the park, she got the bench to run around like a horse. We both fell off them as soon as they started running but it was a great memory to have. Rosa and I had known each other since we were three years old. We had met at a park that was an equal distance away from both of our houses.

At first Rosa and I had stayed on our opposite sides of the park before she came over and asked to play on the swings with me. That was when I had first started to get into heroes and quirk studies so all we could talk about was our favorite heroes.

Papa and Rosa's daddy came over to say goodbye. I jumped up to kiss papa on the cheek and giggled as he lifted me up and above his head. Lowering me down he nuzzled my nose and set me back down on my seat. Soon we had started the beginning of our school years. U.A. here I come!

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE: 4)

"Alright class, let's get started with today's activities," Teacher announced.

I rolled my eyes subtly and continued drawing while Alexa paid attention to the teacher. She was better at doing that than I was. Even though I was just four, I already hated school and the classes that we had to go to.

"Today we are going on a bit of a walk," Teacher said too enthusiastically, "We'll be going to the park a block away and we'll be seeing whether any of you have quirks that involve speed or any physical activity."

I raised my hand slowly, "Miss, what if you already know your quirk?"

She thought for a minute, "You can still participate, but I suppose you can have free time and play on the playground."

I nodded, "Okay."

"Alright class let's gather our things and start going!"

Alexa ran to the cubbies with me trailing behind her trying to finish my drawing. She stopped and I ran into her softly making a mark on the cat. I passed her and looked at the cubbies before realizing something. Her backpack was at the back of the cubby and a new backpack was occupying her cubby. We both looked around at the students and saw someone waiting behind us.

"Is this your backpack," Alexa asked hesitantly.

The boy nodded and shuffled his feet a bit. Alexa quickly looked around our cubbies and found one under her's.

She looked back at the boys, "Would you like me to move my backpack?"

The boy shyly nodded and Alexa handed his backpack to him and reached to grab her's. I just stood there watching this. It was normal for her to be super kind to anybody that had a problem.

She took her packed lunch out and placed her backpack in the second cubby. She waved to the boy and waited for me to grab my lunch too. I just handed her my supplies and grabbed my lunch before following her back to the class line. The boy stood there surprised, grabbed his lunch, and ran over to his friends.

I looked up at her, again listening to the Teacher's instructions about the walk. She was a weird one, that was for sure but she was my best friend so I couldn't really complain. Teacher handed us a tow rope and off we went. Teacher pointed out all the little interesting things before we finally got to the park. I walked away from the class and sat on one of the swings. While watching Alexa and the other kids racing a different boy came over to sit on the swings.

I waved timidly at him. He waved back sadly. I tilted my head, "Are you okay?"

He shook his head, "I'm new here. Father just moved us away from America."

His Japanese was horrible, so it was obvious that he wasn't from here anyway. I looked down at the sketchbook on my lap. Looking through it, I found a black, white, and orange calico. I tore out the page and handed it to him, "Here ya go."

He just looked at it confused. I stood up, grabbed his hand, and put the small page onto his hand.

"You can keep it. It'll make you feel better when you look at it and think of where you came from."

He gave me a hug which I returned, "You're going to be awesome! Keep going and work hard towards a goal. That way when you're older you can go back to your home and visit."

"Tarran," a Harsh voice yelled.

The boy flinched, "Coming father! Bye! I've got to go before I get in trouble."

I waved to the boy running away, "Bye-bye I'll see you later!"

I never did see him at the park again.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE: 5)

I had to run to keep up with my father. He hadn't stopped gripping my wrist since we left the park. I knew that I was in trouble for leaving without saying anything, but I didn't think he would be this harsh to me.

"F-father," I pleaded, "Please stop, you're hurting me!"

"I told you to speak in Japanese!"

"I'm s-sorry."

I said nothing else since we were in front of our house. Father opened the door and threw me in. I fell on the ground and coughed as the dust that had settled was distrubed. I looked around the house. Boxes were scattered everywhere on the floor.

A broom fell on the ground next to me, "Clean up brat! There's dust all over this place!"

I couldn't understand why Father was being so cruel to me now. These past five years he had never talked to me so horribly until we came here. I swept up and threw the dust outside in the trash. When I came back in, my father was laying across the couch, drunk. I went to my room, not taking a shower in fear of waking him up.

I got dressed in my pjs and curled up on a big pillow since I hadn't unpacked my mattress yet. Pulling up the small blanket over my shoulders I fell asleep. My dreams were turned into horrible nightmares.

They were always full of darkness. I don't know why but I had always been afraid of the unknown darkness. It was weird since my quirk dealt in shadows and I could control them. They were always so cold and scary.

Suddenly from the black darkness, mommy would always walk through stare at me while her pupils and iris turned white. A song played through the background.

"Come little children. I'll take thee away"

I started to run away and suddenly it would get so bright that I couldn't see or use my quirk.

I would stumble away from my mother until something stopped me.

"Are you? Are you coming to the tree?"

I'd run into my father and feel his harsh hands wrap around my forearms. His eyes were all white as well. I'd struggle to get away from his grip but his hands seared into my arms with his smoke quirk. They'd leave a mark and an unknown personage would cast me down into a pit where I would never return to the light world I grew up in.

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE: 4 AND A HALF)

"Pain's Eye?!"

I stared at the doctor's white coat in shock. Both of my parents were arguing with the doctor.

"That isn't possible," my mom exclaimed, "This girl should've had a memory or a song quirk! Not this!"

"Sweetie please calm down," Papa said tenderly covering my ears a bit.

"No! There is no way that she could've gotten that quirk. I don't know anyone with that-," Mama stopped yelling abruptly.

"Sweetheart," Papa looked up at her defeated position, "Are you okay dear?"

"My father."

"What?!"

"My father had a similar quirk. It skips a generation. Oh MY GOSH! IT SKIPPED MY GENERATION AND DOOMED MY DAUGHTER!"

I ran behind Papa as Mama started to grow hysterical. The doctor tried to calm her but she just kept laughing until they turned into ugly sobs. Papa went to comfort her while I looked at the floor in the office's corner. The doctor, looking away from me, handed me a sticker and ushered us out.

I dropped the sticker and fiddled with my dress. Papa grabbed my hand and pulled both of us to the car before helping me into it. He tried to raise my head but I resisted until he gave up. I didn't want to hurt him even if it hadn't completely manifested yet.

We had come here to check out the headaches my mom got whenever she looked at me. That's how we found out that it was my quirk. I sat in my car seat trying not to cry while we made our way back home.

Papa hugged me close to his chest and I lost it. He was so strong so why couldn't I be strong like him? Why couldn't I have a quirk like his or Mama's? Why did I have to curse them? They have to deal with the pain of looking me in the eyes now. Apparently my grandpa also had this quirk. I shook my head as I thought about what he was accused of.

Murder and Torture of an Innocent Family.

I was two when it happened but my Papa had told me about him. Mama refused to. They didn't have the best relationship her entire childhood. She believed that he had done it even though he tried pleading innocent. Papa laid me down on my bed and kissed me good night. I rolled over to face my wall and wished that my grandfather could teach me how to control this curse.

Terra's P.O.V. (AGE: 7)

I fell back onto the ground. A stinging feeling was left in my cheek from the hard hit. "What did I tell you about talking with that ugly voice," my father growled.

I crouched closer to the ground and stared at the tears that now pooled below me. I timidly signed sorry with my hands. Father kicked me in the stomach causing me to gasp for air and fall away from him a bit.

"You'd better be!"

He stepped over me and walked into the kitchen. I laid there for a bit longer and picked myself up a bit. My stomach was cramping and I felt nauseous. Quickly I ran to the bathroom and threw up all of the food I had for breakfast. I leaned against the toilet and tried to gasp in the breath I had lost while throwing up.

I heard the T.V. volume turned up and decided that it was probably easiest to take a shower now. I slipped off the small white sundress and started the shower. I cringed at the pattering that the weak water pressure produced. I stepped into the cold water and quickly washed myself and the bruises on my sides. Turning off the shower I grabbed a small shower towel, dried myself up, and quickly ran into my bedroom.

It was kind of small but I could live with it. I found a dark blue dress and slipped it on. Sitting on my mattress, I dug out a small 3x4 picture and stared at the faces. My mom, father, brother, and I were surrounded by small navy blue petals falling from the tree.

I was laughing and trying to catch the petals while my brother tried to hold onto me. Father was watching with a calm face and mom was doubled over laughing. Probably from the stuff my brother was yelling about. To others it was just a semi-blurry picture with a happy family, but to me it was everything.

My mom had left father and me when I was around 3 years old. Brother had stayed until he was 18 and I was 5, before leaving the house. He left for school 2 years ago and hasn't come back yet. I laid down on my bed before replacing the photo under my mattress.

If dad ever found out that I had the photo I'm sure he would kill me. He wanted to forget about her and me. I looked too much like her. Whenever he hit me, he hit her in his mind. He'd do the abuse to me that he wanted to do to my mother.

She hasn't come for me yet and I don't think she ever will.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE: 4)

I jolted up at the sound coming from outside of my bedroom door. It opened a crack and my father came in. He sat down at the edge of bed and placed his hand on my knee. I looked at him in confusion before he grabbed my mouth and activated his quirk, filling my lungs with smoke. I coughed and hacked before eventually losing consciousness.

I woke up again in a very dark place. I struggled against the cloth sides and tried to break out of whatever I was trapped in. There was a distinct smell of smoke on the side of the cloth and a warmer presence on the other end.

"Hello?"

"Shut up Tarran!"

I trembled when my father's voice came through the fabric. He was trudging heavily and seemed to be exerting himself way too much for it to be good. I tried to peek through the fabric before I realized that the cloth felt kind of like my bed sheets did.

My eyes widened as I finally realized what had happened.

My father, the man who had been raising me for over four years, had wrapped me up in my own sheets and was taking me somewhere. I knew that he didn't like me anymore but I didn't think that my mother would have let me be taken away.

That's when I heard a separate pair of footsteps.

"Mommy?"

My father bounced the trap and caused me to hit my back against his back painfully.

"I said shut up!"

I rubbed my shoulder and started to sniffle. I was only five, why did my parents hate me so much already? We had been happy back at home so why was this place so different? Why did this place make them hate me? Was it the cause of a quirk or had they just grown tired of me?

I started to sob. Father bounced me again but that didn't stop me from crying for help. A jab to my ribs confirmed my suspicions. My mother was there. Her fingers were always glowing, so when the side of the sheets glowed green, I knew she was there with dad and I.

I whimpered and tried to stay brave for myself. Suddenly, I was dropped. I tried to get out but I heard my mother's harsh whisper.

"Stay in the bag! He won't hurt you if he thinks you're unconscious." I laid back down on the ground. "I'm sorry Tarran but it had to happen. If not-"

"SAPPHIRE! WE NEED TO GO BEFORE SOMEONE COMES!"

"I hope you grow into a very admirable young man."

"SAPPHIRE!"

"COMING JASON!"

I heard her receding footsteps and a car driving away. I curled up with my head peeking out of the sheets. I was laying down in a strange grassy field. Blades of grass shielded my view of the rest of my surroundings. I listened to the small chirps of the crickets and the buzzing of fireflies.

It would have been a nice place had it not been for how I got here. I breathed in the air and felt the tears finally sting my eyes. Quickly, I wiped them away and let my heavy eyelids droop and I was carried into a surprisingly peaceful sleep.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE: 3)

I stared up at the night sky looking for the moon. I stomped my three year old foot in annoyance and spun around to look again. The moon is big, bright, and white, why couldn't I find it.

"What are you looking for Mey?"

I turned to face my brother, "Coden I can't find the moon!"

He pet my head and snickered, "You aren't looking in the right place. Come on, hop on."

I climbed up onto his shoulders and he ran to the other side of my house. Once in the front yard I saw the moon. It was bigger than the last full moon.

"Coden! It's sooooo big!"

He laughed, "Yeah it's gotten closer to us since the last time we saw it, huh?"

I held onto his hair as we stared up in amazement. I loved the stars and how they shone so brightly. Coden spun in a circle making me laugh and smile.

A faint argument could be heard from inside the house.

"Why are mommy and daddy fighting again?"

Coden sighed and took me off his shoulders so I was in his arms facing him, "I'm not sure Mey."

I clutched his red plaid shirt, "Is it because of me? Am I the problem?"

Coden lifted my head to look into my eyes, "Mame. You are definitely not the problem. They were fighting before we adopted you. It was bound to come." Coden looked back to the moon, "Some people just fall out of love unfortunately."

I wrapped my arms around his neck and cried softly. Coden was always so strong and brave. Why couldn't I be like him?

He sat down on the wooden porch and rubbed my back while I cried.

"One day I'm going to touch the moon and stars. I'm going to study hard, go to NASA, and go into space. I'll bring back a moon rock so you can touch the moon, too."

I sat up on his lap and held out my pinky, "Pinky promise you'll come back?"

He extended his pinky and hooked it with mine, "I promise."

We passed Papa on our way in. He stared at us with those cold gray eyes. The same color of Coden's but completely different at the same time. Papa threw his arms up in defeat, got into his car, and drove away.

Mama's eyes were glazed over, "Come on you two. We need to pack up your father's stuff before he comes back with the divorce papers."

Coden walked me in and we went to Papa's room. It was basically bare, cold, and dark. Just like the man who had lived in it.

~Getting Their Quirks!~

Salena's P.O.V. (January 17: AGE: 5)

I scrunched up my eyes at the bright sunlight that streamed in through my window. I sat up and looked at the clock.

'9:45 am' was what it read. I groaned. My doctor's appointment was in an hour. And that meant that I had to wait a whole hour.

I am now around four and a half but I've yet to manifest a quirk yet. It was getting frustrating now. Victoria had already manifested her's and obviously so did Kacchan. In fact, most of my class had found their quirks.

Me and three other kids were the only ones who hadn't gotten their quirks. Me and three other boys. Ugh! It was super frustrating that I was the only girl who hadn't found their quirk. All the other girls had stuff like growing flowers and conjuring unicorn illusions, but I want a quirk that could be a hero's quirk like my daddy's.

He had grown to be the tenth best hero now. Mommy and I were really happy for him. Now he had a chance of saving even more people than before. He was home a little less but whenever he came home he always brought me a present.

"Twinkle," Daddy called into the hallway, "Breakfast!"

I slipped into a small pastel jean dress before running out. I ran into the kitchen and was suddenly picked up by daddy. He twirled me around before setting me down again at the counter.

Mommy came in and sat beside me.

"Thanks for the food," we said in unison.

Daddy and I dug into our scrambled eggs and sausage, while mommy poked at her food.

"Mommy are you okay?"

She nodded, "Yeah I'm just feeling a bit under the weather, that's all."

"Okay!"

Daddy hesitated before mommy gave him a small smile then continued to eat. I finished first and hopped down from the stool.

"Come on. Come on. Come on," I whined.

My parents just shook their heads and got ready to go out.

While they did that I was trying to grab a glass and fill it up with water. When I couldn't reach I let it droop and suddenly the glass cup was in the shape of a star. I was examining it when Mommy and Daddy came out. I set it on the counter and ran to strap on my shoes.

They helped me into the car and off we we live near the clinic it didn't take that long so no radio songs unfortunately. Daddy parked and I jumped out immediately, unable to hold in my excitement. Mommy took my hand before I could explode and we all walked together into the clinic.

~Time Skip~ (30 minutes)

I was now upside down on my chair trying to count higher than 20. Every time I got to 20 I forgot the next number.

"Salena Katike," a hospital guy called my name. I straightened up and walked into the office with my parents at my side.

The doctor kind of looked like a cartoon mole. Wrinkling and hunching over with teeny tiny circular glasses sitting on a big nose. His head had a ring of hair but none of the top.

"Alright Miss Salena, we are going to look at your results now."

A screen came up that showed a bunch of x-rays, "You are healthy and you are perfectly capable of getting a quirk. You see this," He pointed to a foot shaped diagram and emphasised the toes, "This joint means that you are perfectly normal. In fact you could find your quirk in no time."

I smiled and jumped up and down on the seat.

"What is the percentage of her getting either of our quirks," Mommy asked.

"Oh I'd say about 25% each, but she has the opportunity to also have a combined quirk."

I tilted my head, "Like what?"

The doctor thought for a minute, "Well I guess it could be a glass quirk or a brick quirk. Then again there is always that 50% that you get your Mommy's or Daddy's."

"What is a cup made of?"

Daddy lifted his eyebrow in confusion, "You mean our's. Um glass I think, why?"

"Isn't that what sand and heat make? Because I made a pretty star out of one of the cups!"

My mommy stood up quickly, "What do you mean you made a star out of one of it?!"

I looked up at her sudden burst, "I'm sorry. It was an accident."

She hugged me, "You got your quirk! It doesn't matter if you messed up some glass cup! I'm so proud of you Lena!"

I hugged her back and tried to hold back the small tears that pricked my eyes. Daddy joined the hug and thanked the weird looking doctor. We were at the reception desk, paying, when I looked around and saw someone from my class.

I ran over and called his name, "IZU-CHAN! Hi!"

He turned towards me and waved shyly, "Hi Lena-chan."

"What're you doing here?"

"I'm just here to find out if I have a quirk or not."

"Oh! I just got back from doing that. Today I turned a cup into a shiny star!"

"Whoa," he leaned forward in excitement, "That's so cool Lena-Chan! You're going to be an awesome pro!"

I high fived him and was called back by Mommy, "Well bye Izu-chan! I'll see you at school!"

We waved goodbye and I walked out a door as he walked into one that he would have a hard time recovering from.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE 6 AND A FEW WEEKS)

I rolled my eyes at the actions of my two classmates. It was gosh darn 1st grade, like chill bro! Like any other day, some boys were picking on me in the corner of the classroom. One jabbed at me with his grubby slime hands.

"Don't touch me with those nasty fingers," I yelled hoping the teacher would hear me. Spoiler alert: he didn't.

"Hey," slime boy, Kagame, yelled back, "They aren't that nasty!"

"Pshh. Yeah right! Those things leave a freaking stain anywhere you touch!"

The other grabbed my arm and stabbed a stake thingy into it.

I yelped from the pain, "L-let go of me."

"Oh losing confidence are we?"

"I. Said. Let. GO!"

An intense heat sprouted throughout my blood stream. I looked the bully in the eye and punched him across the face, the heat growing more harsh as it connected with his skin. An explosion threw us backwards.

I hit the wall and slid down half a foot. Groaning I rubbed the back of my head and looked around. There was black smoke surrounding the room and a chorus of groans coming from every direction.

Looking down at my fist I was surprised to see that it was covered in fire. I panicked and started to shake my hands to put the fire out. My hand hit the wall and another explosion knocked me over.

I sat up from the ground and tried focusing on my hands. They went out quickly and quietly. The kids in my class were all screaming now, thinking it was a villain or something. The teacher came over to me and crouched down to my height.

"Was that you Alexa?"

"I-i think so," I responded timidly looking down at my hands again. Then the adrenaline fell and I felt the pain.

"OW!"

I fell to the floor and started to cry after seeing my arms. They were red and raw from the heat and explosion. My fingers were a sickly gray color and my hair was all but singed on one side from the second explosion.

My teacher took his water quirk and placed some room temp water over the wounds. It stung for a bit before the pain evened out. The smoke cleared and suddenly I saw the two boys that were bullying me.

They were slumped against a cabinet and would have scars on their arms and maybe their faces. I motioned to the teacher and he took away the soothing silk from my arms. I winced at the pain coming back and excused myself to the nurse's office.

The boys joined me soon and got treatment as well.

"I-i don't want to be n-near that villain," Kagame screamed.

Jackell just shook as the nurse told him that he would have a scar across his face for his life. I looked down at my hands and started to cry.

"I-I'm so s-sorry! I-I-I didn't mean t-to!"

An hour later my father came in and hugged me tightly, "Oh Alexa. Are you okay?"

I shook my head, "I'm sorry Papa. I hurt someone and broke my promise!"

He shook his head and hugged me even tighter. I just sobbed into his jacket. The principal called us all in, with the teacher already there.

"So," the principal started, "Would anyone like to explain what happened in that class."

Kagame perked up, "Me and Jackell were minding our own business when this meanie came over and exploded us!"

"No I didn't," I yelled at him.

He flinched. The principal continued, "So what happened Miss Alexa?"

"They were bullying me. When I told them to leave me alone Jackell grabbed my arms and stabbed me with his quirk. I thought maybe if I finally fought back he would just be stunned by a simple hit, but-" I stared down at my fist.

"You've gotten you quirk, I presume?"

I nodded, "Yeah. My fist caught on fire and when it hit, the fire just exploded."

The principal nodded while my dad stood over the two boys, "You Brats Bullied My Daughter."

He was smiling scarily, making the boys cower against the chairs. I stared up at my father, surprised. He usually was super calm with people like this. Being in the police force requires patience. This seemed like a whole new dad though.

"N-no sir," Kagame whimpered, "We were just pushing her to get a quirk. Y-your welcome."

"Your Welcome?"

"Y-yes?"

"No. Don't come near my daughter ever again."

"YES SIR!"

The principal stood up, "Boys you may go and call your parents. Let them know you will be suspended for four days each. Miss Alexa, have your father take you home and nurse those wounds. Try to learn how to control your quirk during your one day suspension."

"Thank you sir," I squeaked out. I didn't even do anything, but I understood why he had to. It would have been unfair if I hadn't been suspended for the damages I caused, at the very least. Papa and I bowed to him before leaving swiftly.

In the car I thought about my quirk and got excited. I looked at my bandaged hands and flicked my hand on fire then put it out. We got out of the car, arriving at home, and went inside to find Mama. She hugged us both and put in a movie. We had a week left together before she went on a business trip that would trap her in a whole new place.

Terra's P.O.V. (Song: Song of Mortality: AGE: 7)

I was staring up at the moon when it happened. I felt something adjust inside me. It felt like all of a sudden my blood was flowing in the opposite direction. I doubled over and widened my eyes. The pain was excruciating. I fell to my knees and let both of my arms wrap around my body. I bent my head against the floor for some support.

"AUGH!"

I screamed to the ground. I felt a creeping feeling throughout my limbs that spread through to the rest of my torso. When it reached my neck I screamed again. Soon it reached my eyes and head. A pounding howl rang through my brain, rattling it. I placed my arms in front of me, now kneeling almost normally.

I looked at my arms and felt the creeping sensation return. They started to grow gray then a lighter color. Silver fur ran down to my legs and wrapped around them. My human ears stretched painfully and also grew fur. They stretched until they almost sat on the top of my head. I felt my nose twitch and stretch, growing fur as well. Whiskers grew out and a sense of smell overwhelmed me.

I squeezed my eyes shut. My light gray dress stretched around my shoulders and back. The thick straps snapped and ripped off. A tail burst through my back near the bottom, resting in a scared position. I put my ears down and opened my eyes slowly. Blinking away tears, I looked around at everything. It was all a dimmer version of what it used to be.

I stood up hesitantly and looked around at my neighborhood. The lights got dimmer and the shadows got brighter. What happened to me?

I couldn't answer. I got too distracted with a smell. It was a fragrance like the smell of meat. I stalked around my house and saw a small bird. The smell was coming from it. I tilted my head that sent a bunch of silver and gold curls to fall down. I felt my hair and was surprised by how long it had gotten.

The bird chirped curiously. I focused back on it and growled. It hopped back a bit and flew off. I went back to the front yard and focused on the full moon sitting up in the sky. I got the urge to howl but held it back in fear my father would come out and hit me for speaking.

Then I realized what the heck had just happened. I looked down at my hands, fearful. My claws were long and sharp enough to tear through flesh or wood. My feet were longer and my knees were in a half crouched position. I wrapped my arms around my body. I was a werewolf? Was that my quirk?

I sat on the grass and thought about my parents' quirks. Mom had some sort of dog quirk and Father had a solar quirk. I guess it could mutate to a werewolf quirk thingy.

"Brat! Come Here!"

My ears perked up at my father's voice. I walked into the house, still like I was. My father looked at me and waved it off.

"Knew it would happen someday. Doesn't matter to me if it's a stupid mutation quirk. Get me a beer!"

I nodded and went to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and delivered him his beer. I went to my room and sat on the bed, looking at myself. Maybe this wasn't so bad but I don't know how I'm ever going to get back to normal.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE: 5)

Coden hugged me tightly, "I'll love you forever Mey."

I clung to his neck and sobbed, "I'll love you forever too Codey!"

Mama picked me up and kissed Coden on the cheek, "Please be safe Coden. I beg of you, be safe on your way."

"I will Ma. I promise," Coden hugged her and me for the last time until he would return. Coden was almost 16 now and eligible to go to Nasa then he was going to train for two years before going into space (I know that's too young but work with me here).

I tried to stop crying but couldn't. The tears just kept coming. He grabbed his suitcase and dragged it over to the taxi. He placed it inside the trunk and adjusted his backpack. He kissed his hand and blew it out to me. I pretended to catch it and cherish it. Coden climbed into the car and waved through the window.

I jumped out of Mama's arms to run after the taxi, "Bye Coden! BYE-BYE! I LOVE YOU!"

I ran around the corner and waved him off the freeway. Mama came beside me and held me close to her leg. I motioned for her to pick me up. She picked me up and kissed my nose. I giggled and kissed her back. We went back home and ate breakfast, awaiting Coden's Skype call from America.

~Time Skip~ (3 Weeks)

"Mame," Mama called from inside our house, "Come here! Coden's calling!"

I jumped up and ran into the house and to the living room.

Our house was set up like this: Front door that leads you into a hallway that continues for a small distance. Along the wall are small, square pictures of our family. To the right is the kitchen and to the left is a hallway that leads to three rooms and a bathroom. Two on the right and the one on the left beside the bathroom.

Across the kitchen is a dining room and table, past the bar counter thing. The front hallway leads straight, as well, into the living room. A couch set against the wall closest to the hallway, faces towards a sliding glass door. In the right corner of the room, a computer desk was set up.

I walked over to Mama who was sitting in front of the computer. I walked to her right and climbed up onto her lap when she motioned for me. Coden clicked on the answer button and suddenly a fluffy axolotl was shown on the screen. I squealed with excitement. We had sent him the stuffed animal a week ago in a care package.

"Thanks for the friend Mey," Coden exclaimed happily, "Though, not sure if my roomies will let me keep him. They keep cuddling him."

Another boy popped into the screen. He had curly, dark, red hair and cocoa colored skin. He had red eyes that popped out against his skin. He waved and spoke to us in a weird language. Coden talked to him and explained that we didn't speak English and he chuckled.

"Rodney says 'Hi'," Coden said, switching back to Japanese. Rodney waved again and then was pushed away by another boy. He was pale, blonde, and his face was covered in freckles, shaped like some Norse symbol.

"Uh Hi, I am named Rainer Leon," he said in broken Japanese. So he had been practicing but Rodney not so much.

"Whoa," I exclaimed, "So cool!"

He blushed a little and shrank away from the screen. Coden chuckled a bit at his antics, "He's a bit shy. Anyway, that was Rainer and the red head was Rodney. I'm stuck with them until we go up to space together."

"When are you going up to the stars Codey!?"

He chuckled, "Not for a while Mey. But I'll let you know when we do."

"How are you doing, son," Mama asked tentatively.

He rubbed his neck, "It's definitely harder than the training in school. And the food is a lot worse than yours, but it's nice to be able to follow this dream."

"I'm glad you could get this far, honey. Please be safe with your health."

"I will Ma. It's not like they could even let us get unhealthy. They make sure we floss, take showers every night, and use deodorant. It's a bit strange but understandable. I miss you guys."

I nodded, putting my fingers over where his mouth was on screen, "Smile brother. You're going to be able to see us again. I love you more than I love the stars!"

"What about the moon?"

I thought, "Maybe!"

He laughed and shook his head subtly, "Guess that's the best I'm getting."

"I love you so much, Sweetheart! I'm glad you're adjusting well."

We talked to him for an hour before it was Rodney's turn to call his family in Mexico. We said bye to everyone before Coden signed off. Then Mama and I watched a space movie called "Apollo 14." I couldn't understand a single thing. The dumb movie was in english.

I fell asleep on Mama's lap and was taken into dreams of Star Constellations.

~Time Skip~ (5 hours)

I woke up in my bed but something just felt off about the house. I slid out of my bed and fell to the floor. Like not on my face, but the bed was too tall for me to get down normally. My room was still dark but a light kept flashing under the door. I turned the knob and peeked out the crack.

Someone clad in black and lime green was stalking through our kitchen. He seemed to be looking for something in Mama's special chest.

"HEY," I yelled stepping all the way out of my room, "You aren't supposed to be here!"

"Oh crap-I thought her kid left forever ago," the weird guy whispered, turning to look at me.

I spied Mama's mommy's ring in his hand, "That's not yours! That's Mama's mommy's, not for idiots! BAKA!"

"That's it kid!"

"Eep-,"I scrambled away from him and tried to get out the front door. Something grabbed me around my waist and pulled me back. The weird guy pulled me closer with his elongated arm. I scratched at his forearm and struggled to get out.

"You aren't going anywhere, kid!"

I leaned away from him and gagged. His breath smelled horrible like rotten eggs and bird dung. I squeezed my eyes closed to stop tears that were forming in my eye. I cracked open my right eye and saw the ring.

I leaned forward quickly and snatched the ring then heard a voice.

"Call for me, young one. I will be able to protect you. My name is Taurus. I won't kill him but I will do whatever I can to protect you."

I nodded and wriggled from the man's arms. I raced away as he realized he let me go.

"Hey! Get back here-" he cried.

"Big Brother TAURUS! Help Me!"

A bright flash of orange filled the room and suddenly a tall and strong man was standing in front of me brandishing a broad two sided labrys. He was wearing weapon straps and simple leather trousers.

A piece of shoulder armor connected to his main strap and then covered his bicep in orangey rusted armor. His skin wasn't completely solid so I could see the surprise on the weird guy's face when Taurus showed up. He was outlined in a weird orange neon light.

"Whoa," Weird Guy stepped back from Taurus.

"Now listen here you punk," Taurus seethed, "You are not allowed to hurt the little one! In fact, I think you should leave now."

"No," I stamped my foot. Taurus looked at me from the corner of his eye. I puffed out my cheeks stubbornly, "He needs to go to jail. It's mean to steal from people!"

Taurus nodded then looked back at Weird Guy, "Alright. Little One is right. You should probably go to jail to avoid harsher judgement". Weird Guy snapped out of his shock and nodded timidly.

Taurus picked him and turned back to me, "What should we do with him, Little One?"

I thought for a little bit of time then pointed to the back yard, "Can you go to the shed and grab some rope from the left shelf, please? I'll go get Mama."

Taurus nodded, "Be careful. There could be more guys around."

"Okay," I jumped up and down before running down the hallway to Mama's door; last on the right. Knocking before entering, I slowly made my way over to Mama's sleeping figure. I climbed up on her bed then creeped up to her face where I proceeded to poke her face until she sat up and made me tumble off the bed.

"What is it Mame Em Delphinus," Mama said smiling angrily.

I winced at the use of my full name, "I wanted to let you know that there was a weird guy in the house. He tried to steal Mama's mommy's ring."

I set the ring on Mama's lap and looked down at my feet. Mama got onto the ground and pulled me into a hug, "I'm sorry, Mame. I didn't mean to get mad at you. What do you mean a weird guy tried to take Grandma's ring?"

"A burgurlare!"

She jumped up and ran out of the room, dragging me with her. We arrived in the living room and Taurus was standing in the far corner. The Weird Guy was tied to one of the couches. I ran over to Taurus and jumped into his arms.

"Whoa! Mame, how are you doing that?!"

I looked back at her confused, "Doing what?"

She gestured from my feet to the ground, "You're floating, baby girl."

"No I'm not. Big Brother Taurus is holding me."

"Big Brother Taurus?"

"She can't see me, little one," Taurus said, placing me back on the ground, "No one could until you got your quirk. I'll allow her to see me when I can trust her."

I looked up at him, "What do you mean? She's my Mama. You can trust her."

"You must understand, Little One, I have been a zodiac for a long time. Once upon a time, we were able to walk along with the humans, but then they tried to pin us against each other in war. We all decided to leave and return to the stars before it got out of hand."

"We've been waiting for someone with stars in their eyes for many millennia. You've always been our choice but we had to wait for the moment that you would be able to handle summoning us with your quirk."

"Oh! I have my quirk now Mama!"

Ran over to her and jumped into her arms. She lifted me up happily and laughed along with me.

She looked at the corner, "Um…Thank you Taurus. For keeping Mey safe."

Taurus bowed his head even though she couldn't see him, "It was my pleasure."

Mama looked exactly to where he was, "Can you see him, Mama?"

"No, but he let me hear what he said. Thanks for trusting me enough, sir."

Taurus seemed surprised by how my mother acted towards him. I giggled at his dropped jaw, "See I told you Taurus!"

He chuckled, "Yes you did, Little One."

"Alright Mey, let's get you to bed. We have a big announcement for your brother Coden."

I leaned on Mama and waved to Taurus, "Nighty-night Big Brother Taurus."

"Good-night Little One."

Taurus started to disappear by the time I fell asleep. That's okay though, I knew I would see him again soon.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE: 5

Rushing through the forest was by far my favorite thing to do nowadays. It was always so peaceful in the meadow my family had abandoned me in. I ran past a fox family and jumped up into a tree.

I clambered up the tree to top and looked out across my territory. It had been almost a year since I was thrown out. I think that made me seven now but I don't really care about all that now. I only need to care about what I'll eat and how the bugs will stay off me during the night.

I sat on a larger branch and watched the sunset on my horizon. People came here once in a while, though I think they thought it was an interesting adventure spot rumoured to be haunted. The thing was, I'm the only thing haunting this abandoned storage house.

It was three floors high, the adventurers usually didn't get past the second floor, my main room being on the third floor. There was one time where two guys came in with a camera. It was a bit scary when they left yelling about seeing me through the window.

I had been chilling on a low window sill when they came in. I popped my head over the edge and threw a rock hoping it would scare them but they instead came closer and investigated. I had to jump on the actual window pane and spread my arms out to appear scary.

They took one look at me and booked it out. I followed them throughout the third floor until they got on the second floor. I slammed the door closed and barricaded it. That was around two months ago and they haven't returned since. Maybe they went back to America, they looked like they lived in America, especially considering they weren't speaking Japanese.

I leaned against the tree more and reminisced about the other people who came. I was thinking about a couple's scare when all of a sudden the branch I was sitting on cracked. I jolted up. It cracked more and more while I panicked about the fall. I could catch the branches down but they would only break.

It cracked again and before I could think, plummeted down to the ground. I screamed and waved my arms quickly. The ground came closer and closer until I criss-crossed my arms in front of me and was stopped. I squinted my left eye open and lost my breath.

The ground had been five feet away from me. I gasped and fell the rest of the way, earning a headache from the fall. My head whipped around to see who saved me. No one was there but then I saw movement. I turned to look at it and saw that the tree's shadow was returning to shape.

Beckoning with my hand, it changed shape and raced towards me. I yelped and scrambled away before it could reach me. It kept coming and soon it touched my leg. I immediately felt calm. The shadow creeped up my leg and stayed on my chest. My pounding heart calmed down and my eyes drooped.

The cool feeling of the shadow settled inside me and soon it lulled me to sleep. That night I didn't have horrible night terrors and I was able to wake up easily. The shadow had returned to its original shape again. I beckoned again and it stretched towards me but the end remained attached to the tree. It reached me and wrapped around me, letting go of the tree as soon as it took shelter in the shadows of my clothes.

I looked at it and was amazed by the weird shapes it made along my arms and legs. There were swirls and squared shapes that wove into the shadows of my clothes. I went to poke it and felt it.

It squirmed a bit before attaching to my finger like I wanted. I tried to focus on separating from each other. It did and moved to the opposite appendages they were attached to.

"Wow," I whispered under my breath, "Is this my quirk?"

I thought about my parents' quirks. Father's was a Smoke type quirk but Mother's was a light eagle kind of quirk. The shadow part probably came from Father's but the fluidy was probably from Mother's.

"Hmm," I placed a finger on my chin, "Did they not know what my quirk was? Or did they already know?"

Now that I thought about it. Father and Mother had never encouraged me to find out what it was. Maybe they just didn't believe that it would be a strong quirk?

Probably.

~Trauma is Everywhere!~

Victoria's P.O.V. (Age: 12)

"Do we have to visit Uncle Hatsume every year," I complained, "Can't we just send a simple letter."

"Oh come on Ria," Daddy coaxed, "It can't be that bad. Besides, you like talking with Mei."

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah but she's always trying to attack me with her freakin' inventions. Plus their house smells weird."

"Oh come one Victoria," Mommy interceded, "It can't be that bad. It only smells weird because they've blown up so many things!"

"Yeah, exactly," I pointed out, "It's dangerous there, too."

"They already promised that they wouldn't invent anything more until we left."

Daddy looked into the rear view mirror, "It's only for a week Vic. We'll be there and back before you know it."

I looked into his eyes then through my left window where two lights blinded me immediately, "DADDY LOOK OUT!"

The car rammed into us and sent us spinning into the other lanes that were going the opposite direction. Two other cars got rammed into the passenger side of our car. Mommy and I were screaming while Daddy, with blood running down his forehead, tried to gain control again.

We swerved into the correct lane and got rammed by a semi-truck. Our small blue car was flipped three times and came to a stop upside down. I was hanging from my seat belt barely conscious when people started shouting around us.

"CALL 911!"

"SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS COUPLE!"

"THERE'S A KID IN THAT ONE!"

"WHERE ARE THE HEROES?!"

A jolt against the car spread pain throughout my body. I yelped at the sudden movements. I tried to move my arms but found that they had been crushed by the cooler I had been sharing the back seat with.

"HEY! KID ARE YOU OKAY!?"

I turned my head a bit to my left and saw someone with blonde hair looking in through the window. He looked kind of weak and skinny. I coughed a little, trying to get words out. I tried to reach for him but my arm just swung a bit.

He grabbed my destroyed hand carefully and looked into my eyes, "Can you hear me? You're going to be okay, young one, I'm going to make sure of that," he looked outside of the car, "Someone come see if her parents are okay!"

Someone popped through the shattered glass and tried to get a reaction from either of my parents. They reached into the car and pulled my father out, first then my mother.

I heard them very clearly say, "The father is dead and the mother is going to die if we don't get her immediate treatment."

I didn't realize that I had stopped breathing until the blonde man squeezed my hand carefully. His mouth moved into words that I couldn't understand. He was moved aside by one of the paramedics. The door was ripped off and I was carefully cut out of the car.

Mommy, Daddy, and I were loaded onto gurneys and taken to different ambulances. The blonde man offered to come with me so the paramedics allowed him in (Yeah right! This ain't real life so heck it!) with me. He climbed in and we took off towards the hospital.

I couldn't stop thinking through the events that had happened before the crash. Tears sprung to my eyes when I realized that I had been the one to distract Daddy. It was my fault. Daddy had only been trying to help me feel more comfortable.

The paramedic was working quickly and trying to bandage what they could. A sharp stab of pain electrocuted through my arm. I cried out in pain and tried to reach over to the damaged area. My right arm jolted a bit before the blonde returned his hand to mine.

His striking electric blue eyes stared into my sea teal eyes pleading me to calm down. I stared into his eyes before examining him to distract from the pain.

He was mostly sitting up straight but had a slight hunched over posture. His hands were large but skinny and scarred. He was wearing a yellow hoodie that almost matched his blonde hair. It had sort of familiar lines of red but I couldn't pin-point where it was from.

His brow cast a small shadow over his eyes, they would have been intimidating had it not been for the kindness and worry in them. He had curly blonde hair and two strands framed his face. He had to have been around his late 20s early 30s, so why did he look so much older already.

We arrived at the hospital and I was wheeled into the operation room. Two doctors examined the notes the paramedic made on the drive before coming to a conclusion.

"Alright young lady," Doctor #1 said, "We need to ask if you would allow us to amputate your arms. They have been crushed beyond repair even with a specialized quirk. You could always keep them but they would only get in the way of your normal life. Even if we amputated your arms, there is no guarantee that you can get prosthetics."

"I know this is a tough decision but I would recommend amputation-"

"I'm keeping them," I quickly interrupted, "Sure they could get annoying but I don't want to lose anything more than I already have."

The doctors nodded and left the room before reentering with a team of nurses and other doctors. They put me under and started on the operations to save my arms enough to keep them without risk of disease.

Blonde Guy's P.O.V.

I paced back and forth across the waiting room. Someone from the police station had come two or so hours ago and integrated anyone involved in the crash except those who were getting treated like the young girl I rode with.

~Flashback~

I shook my head subtly. It had been two years since that horrible fight but I was still feeling the effects. I was driving behind a grey van when all of a sudden they braked out of nowhere. I slammed on the brakes and turned to the side, parallel parking behind them.

I jumped out of my small white car to see what the commotion was. I ran around the van and looked around at the scene around me. There were at least five affected cars. A small blue car, a maroon volkswagen, two white vans, and a semi-truck.

The maroon driver and passenger were being checked, both with minimal damage. One white van was smashed on the ride front side. Most likely the one that caused this accident in the first place. The driver was getting treatment from someone with a small healing quirk. The other white van was scratched and crushed in with smoke filtering out of the engine. A man was looking it over and helping the driver prevent further damage.

A quick look at the semi told me, yeah he didn't need help. I mean it was a freaking semi, it was only scratched. So I ran towards the small blue car that had been flipped over. It was definitely the most damaged out of the crash recipients.

A small group of people gathered around the car discussing what to do. I pushed through the crowd as soon as someone said, "THERE'S A KID IN THAT ONE!"

I crouched down beside the left window behind the driver's seat. There was a young teen strapped in by her seat belt who seemed almost conscious.

"HEY! KID ARE YOU OKAY," I shouted a little louder than I expected.

She looked at me slowly and swung her left arm a bit towards me. I reached in, being careful of the glass, and held her hand tentatively. It was crippled and bent in the wrong shape.

I looked into her scared teal eyes, "Can you hear me? You're going to be okay, young one, I'm going to make sure of that," I looked outside of the car, "Someone come see if her parents are okay!"

A man stuck his arms through the window and pulled out her father before grabbing her mother on the passenger's side. He checked their pulses before whispering, "The father is dead and the mother is going to die if we don't get her immediate treatment."

I squeezed the teen's hand, "Hey it's going to be okay. We're going to save you mother. The ambulances are here and these people are going to take care of you."

A paramedic rushed beside me with a pair of firefighters with cutters behind them. They cut the girl out and lifted her onto a gurney. I was about to let them leave when I asked if I could ride with her. The paramedic was hesitant at first before opening the door for me.

I climbed in and held the teen's hand. She stared at me and calmed down before we got to the hospital. I followed them until I had to stop. Then I went to the waiting room.

~Flashback over~

I paced through the small chair aisle again and again. I was nervous for the teen since she had lost her father and maybe her mother. I had tried to get some info on her but it had been withheld. I only knew their family name was Azby.

They were known around the mechanic world well. They were basically differently licensed support heroes. They would improve designs for other heroes that needed them. I honestly had never gone to them but I knew some heroes that did.

"Mr. Toshinori," the P.A. system announced, "Please come to the waiting room office."

I sped over to the desk, "Yes? I'm Toshinori. Is it about the girl I came in with? Is she okay?"

The lady nodded slowly, "She is, but her mother passed away on the table. Are you by chance a relative of her's?"

I shook my head, "No. I just rode here with her, but-"

"She will have to be sent to the adoption services if we can't find a relative."

"I'm willing to do whatever I can to help her. Is there anything I could do?"

The lady looked up at me, "Yes. Would you mind finding her uncle? I just searched up, on our database, any living relatives and there is one by the name of Hatsume Colby. He lives here," she handed me a sticky note, "It's not far from here. About an hour drive, are you willing to do it?"

I nodded, "Do you think that I'll be able to return before she wakes up?"

The lady nodded and I was on my way to find someone I didn't even know.

Charlie's P.O.V. (Doctor #1)

I stared at the teenage girl. Her name was Azby Victoria and her parents were both confirmed dead now. I looked down at my hands. I could fix her, but it could turn out horribly.

Would it be worth it? To make her arms a metallic substance. As far as I know it would feel normal and it would bleed but if it were to be cut off it could be reattached easily.

She said that she had wanted to keep her arms because they were a part of her. Would this be disrespecting her decision or would she be grateful? I looked back down at her sleeping form in the hospital room.

The surgery had been successful but it was only to prevent disease. I shook my head and decided to do it. I activated my quirk and placed my hands over her elbows. A green energy that looked like veins spread throughout her arms.

The skin started to separate from each other at the elbow joint and suddenly both arms were disconnected. I smiled sadly. It was different but if she wanted to use her arms again this was the solution. If she didn't like it, I could always adjust them and put them back together.

A dibbit around her legs caught my attention. I whipped off the covers and found that her legs, at the knees, had also detached. I covered her back up and started freaking out a bit. I just disconnected a patient's arms and legs without their consent.

I was so fired!

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE: 6 AND A HALFISH)

"ALEXA," Papa came bursting into my classroom, "We need to go now! Don't grab your things, just come with me!"

I ran over to Papa and followed him to his car. We hopped in and rushed to the hospital. Papa picked me up and ran inside.

"Where's Lucy Karine's room?! We heard that she was just brought in."

The receptionist looked up at him, "Third floor, room number 56, sir. Please be aware she may not be-"

I couldn't hear the rest of what the receptionist said since Papa ran to the stairs since the elevator would be slower. Papa rushed through the hall, dodging everyone in the way. We arrived at the room and walked in through the door.

Papa set me down and walked past the hallway to where a hospital bed's foot could barely be seen. I wandered over to the bed and stopped short of the corner. Sobbing, that wasn't there when I came in, was heard by the bed. I looked around the corner and was immediately shocked.

A white sheet was drifting along with the wind coming in through the open window. The light reflecting off the blanket was almost blinding, causing slight confusion towards the bumps under it. Papa was bent over on his knees, crying into the sheet. A small bump in the blanket was under his hand and he was holding onto it like it was a lifeline.

I walked to the window when I saw something hanging from the window. It was a luck charm with three beads hanging from a small white string. A charm that also meant "I'm sorry for your loss". I froze when Papa weakly beckoned me to him.

I tried to hold in the tears but they fell harshly as soon as I held my Papa in a tight hug. He cried into my shoulder and I cried into his chest. Mama was gone and she was never coming back.

"How," I choked out, "Why did this happen to Mama? What happened to her Papa?"

"I'm so sorry Alexa. I'm so sorry about this. Your mother was in a plane accident on the way home. The nurses tried their hardest but-" he couldn't continue the heart wrenching story.

We stayed there for what seemed like hours until we eventually had to go home. I grabbed the charm before we left and kept it in my hands until we got home. I hung it up on my window and stared at it until I fell asleep.

I didn't go to school for the next week, and when the funeral came, I was asked to light the flame for her cremation. I accepted and walked to where her simple coffin was. As I activated my quirk, I looked down at her body.

Her brown hair had been combed and curled so it lay perfectly around her face. She wore a necklace that I had made for her when I was little, the small seashells shone due to the sparkles they were dipped in.

She was wearing a traditional kimono that she wore to the japanese festivals we visited. Her favorite flowers, gardenias, were sewn in carefully and flowed throughout the entire garment. Her hands were clasped around the group of flowers that each guest delivered to her.

She looked as if she would bolt up and scare the audience at any moment, but she never did and she never would. She would never see if I would be in a play. She wouldn't see if I became a hero. She wouldn't be able to see me married or as a mother myself. She couldn't grow old with Papa.

I wouldn't be able to argue with her anymore. I couldn't talk to her about boys and I couldn't ask her for advice. I wouldn't see her face in the crowd as I got a medal for becoming a hero and I wouldn't hug her as tightly as I could when she was dying of old age.

That would never happen. These thoughts were only fantasy. They couldn't come true and they wouldn't.

"I love you Mama. I'm so sorry I wasn't the best daughter. I'm sorry I didn't say "I love you" enough times to tire you of hearing it. I should've."

I lit my fist and was careful not to touch the oak branches that surrounded her coffin. One caught and soon the fire spread to the other branches. The coffin caught on fire and made it so bright I had to turn away from the light.

"I'LL DO IT MAMA," I yelled into the sky, "I'M GOING TO BECOME A HERO! I'M GOING TO BE YOUR HERO MAMA! I-I p-promise…."

My relatives couldn't do anything for me. They just stood there crying from my family. That only gave more motivation to make my promise come true.

Coden's P.O.V. (AGE: 20)

I shook excitedly in my leather seat. Rodney, Rainer, and I were finally on our way to Japan where Mom and Mame were waiting for me. Rodney and Rainer were arguing about whether or not to stay at my house or book a hotel since they weren't staying long.

I shook my head, "I told you both that we have plenty of room at my house. Plus the company would be good."

Rodney stuck his tongue out at Rainer, who had been in favor of the hotel. Rainer just shook his head. By now he was used to the playful nature of Rodney and me. We all had been best friends from the moment we were first roommates in NASA training school.

The car stopped at the stop light and we joked about what we were going to see after we arrived in Japan. Obviously, we were going to see my family first and spend the first week with them then go sight-seeing. After three weeks we would go to Rainer's home country and visit them then return to America and go up to space again.

A screeching of tires pulled us out of our thoughts. A black sports car rammed right into the front of our blue rental and flipped over the top. It landed above us and crushed the middle section's roof. I screamed out in pain when it crushed the seat onto my arms and legs.

Rodney and Rainer were in the seat next to the one that I was affected by, so they were mostly okay. Rodney had been barely hit on the left side of his head by the impact and Rainer was thrown against the window to his right.

Our rental's driver was bent over the wheel and bleeding from his head. I tried to focus on something but the pain in my limbs was so intense that all I could do was pass out from the pain.

Rodney's P.O.V. (AGE: 20)

Our driver stopped at a stoplight so I turned around towards where Coden was sitting in the back. Unfortunately, he had been chosen to sit in the back with our other stargazing equipment because he was the smallest of us three.

A cooler kept up the furthest left seat, I was sitting in the middle, and Rainer was sitting next to me, facing the right window, chuckling at something Coden just said. We were talking about what we would see in Denmark when all of us froze at the sound of rubber stretching against asphalt.

I looked ahead at the windshield and saw a black sports car ram into us. We were all jerked forwards then a scream rang out through the car. I turned around despite the huge pain stretching through my skull to see Coden's arms and legs crushed under the car's seat. Rainer looked back too and tried to get the driver awake while I tried to help Coden.

His head lulled to the side when he went unconscious and I immediately tried to wake him up. If he had gotten a concussion, like I most definitely had, it would be best if he didn't fall asleep or stay asleep.

"Hey Coden," I said, trying to bend the middle seat down, "You have to stay awake, Bud. The heroes and paramedics should be here soon, dude. Come on. Come on, wake up."

He stirred a bit and cracked his left eye opened to look at me. "It hurts Rodney."

I winced at his pained expression, "I k-know, man, but they'll be here soon and you need to be awake for them to help you. Rainer, can you summon Thor's strength for me really quick?"

He nodded and said some weird Norse words before tapping my forearm. My arms and legs stretched. They got stronger and larger within the minute. Rainer could transfer any kind of Norse special ability to others as long as he knew most of the original myths.

I reached underneath the dent in the roof, "Alright. Coden I'm going to bend this back to shape and you are going to see if you can't move your legs or arms."

He nodded and I pulled on the roof. With some effort it bent away from the seat. Coden moved around a little, but it seemed he couldn't move anything tremendously. I tried to open the car door but it was stuck. I positioned myself towards the door and kicked hard.

Rainer had been able to open the driver's door and get him out. He was occupied healing them with the help of Eir's special ability. I kicked again and the door crashed to the ground five feet away. I slid out quickly and ripped the seat out of the car to get to Coden.

By now Rainer's quirk was fading and I had to heft Coden out of the back seat. I climbed in, grabbed him by the waist, and lifted him over my shoulder, being careful of the roof. I kneeled down on the ground of the car and shimmied to the door. I sat down on the edge and slid out before standing up with Coden.

Rainer helped the driver up, who was now not bleeding so profusely, and walked over to me. I adjusted Coden so I was holding him bridal style (hehe) then ran to try and get off the road in case another accident occurred.

We made it to the side lines and waited for the paramedics, who were there within the minute. Rainer had tried to heal Coden during the weight but all he could do was heal his concussion so he could sleep a little.

When the paramedics came, Rainer rode with the driver and I rode with Coden. The paramedic worked on stabilizing Coden's arms and tried to set his broken bones. He was done with the quick bandages when we arrived. We jumped out and ran Coden to the doctor's room. I had to be left behind those horrid swinging locked doors.

I couldn't lose him. Not until I told him my secret.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE: 9)

I skipped through my front yard singing a song that Rosen-chan had taught me. She was my very best friend and was helping me through some of my classes

I walked into my house and took off my shoes happily. Coden was coming home today. He had gone up to space and landed on the moon. When he came back down, his bones were thinner and fragile so he had to come home and get better.

"Mama," I called from the front hallway, "Are you here?"

"Yeah honey," she called back, "I'm just in the basement trying to find some of Coden's things. I totally forgot to put them back after we cleaned his room up."

"Okay! I'm going to get ready and start on my homework."

"Thanks sweetheart! I'll be up to help you soon."

I ran to my room, the first on the right beside mama's room. It was painted pastel, sky blue all over. You walk in for it to open on the right. It's kind of set up so when you enter a square of room is on your right.

My bed is set directly ahead of the entrance and has a desk to it's right. My closet covered the entire right side of the room, though I only used one half for clothes. The other half was for miscellaneous stuff.

I closed my door and put on some gray short-shorts and white a shoulder cut shirt on. I picked my backpack off the floor and set it on the bed, then took out the assignment that had been assigned yesterday.

I opened the window above my desk and looked outside so I could see when Coden arrived. I couldn't hide my smile as I thought of what we would do when he came home. Definitely star watching and star mapping. It was one of our favorite pass times before he left and whenever we could on the computer.

The assignment took me all day to complete, so I got worried when Coden still hadn't come home and it was dark. A phone call rang through the house and was answered by mom.

"Hello," she asked, "Delphinus residence. This is Molry speaking."

"Hi Rodney! It's good to hear your voice again, dear…..Is something wrong Rodney?...What do you mean Coden is hurt?"

My blood froze and I walked out to hear the conversation clearer.

"There was an accident? Are you okay Rodney?...Good and what of Coden?...He's what?...What have the doctors said? ...He lost them!?"

"Mama? What's going on? What happened to Coden?!"

She looked over to me, "Oh Mame, Coden was in an accident in America when he was driving to the airport. He's being kept there for a week."

My hand went over my mouth and I almost doubled over in panic. My older brother was hurt. The brother who had been there for me my entire life. The brother that had promised to return with stories of his adventures. I had avoided his story calls just for that reason.

Now something was wrong and I couldn't help him. Mom hung up the phone and sat down on the ground with me. She patted her lap for me to lay down. I fell on her legs and started sobbing while she rubbed my back gently.

We fell asleep like that and woke up the next morning very sore. Rodney updated us that Coden would be okay and that, thanks to one of the American quirks, they would be home in three days. I tried asking mom what was wrong with Coden but she just shook her head and said that I would see.

~Time Skip~ (3 Days)

I rubbed my hands together nervously. We were waiting outside for Coden, Rodney, and Rainer to arrive. Rodney had warned us before-hand that Coden's condition would be surprising and devastating. Mama still refused to tell me what it could have been so my imagination was left to wander.

I had so many compelling nightmares that pointed to him coming home completely different with robot parts and laser eyes. Or he would come home alright but his mindset would be evil. I shook those thoughts away as I realized that Mama had stopped pacing and was looking to her right.

I looked around her body and saw a black car heading towards us with a lightning strike painted across the side. My breath caught in my throat as I realized that was the car my brother was in. He was home. He was here and I was finally going to be able to hug him and sit on his lap again.

The car came to a stop in front of our driveway, leaving room for us to walk. We ran from the front porch to where the driveway was, to our right, and stopped short of the garage opening. A door opened on the opposite side to reveal Rodney and Rainer.

Rainer got the luggage while Rodney came along to the other side and spoke to someone through the window.

"Are you ready, Mame," Mama asked tentatively.

I nodded, not taking my eyes from the car, "It's still Coden. It's still my brother."

Rodney opened the door and my breath hitched before I ran forwards to my brother.

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE: 10)

I sat down on the waiting room chairs swinging my legs back and forth. I was waiting for my name to be called so I could go see my mom. She had come down with a sickness that rendered her bedridden and super sick.

"Salena Katike," the speaker system rang out, "Salena Katike, please report to the front desk. I jumped down off the seat and ran over.

I had to stand on my tip toes to see the lady. She explained how to get to my mom's room from there even though I had been here before. I only nodded and walked to the elevator. It traveled up to the third floor where Mom was. I was riding with a quiet kid who had two different colored eyes and two different hair colors.

I didn't try to talk to him since he was intimidating and looked like a man on a mission even though he was my age. I waved bye to him when I stepped off the elevator and made my way to Mom's room.

Some doctor's passed me talking about some car wreck between a middle aged man and some drunkard. I ignored them and walked into Mom's room. She was looking out the window when I cleared my throat to announce my arrival.

She turned to me and smiled. She couldn't talk because of this disease but it seemed the treatment was working well. She could rasp out some words but it was still painful. I sat down beside her and we snuggled before she turned on the tv for me.

I was watching a Glitter Squad rerun when suddenly Mom's heart monitor sped up. I bolted up and ran for a doctor. Luckily, they were able to stop the problem and left Mom sleeping peacefully. They were allowing me to stay only because of the scare.

I called Dad and told him that I was staying at the hospital because he was going to come home late again. When I was little I didn't realize how much he was gone at work until I grew up and needed his help more and more.

Now I always went to Mom when I had a problem. I talked about Kacchan's jerky attitude nowadays and how he wouldn't leave Izu-chan alone. I also talked about Victoria and how good she was at painting and drawing.

I would also sing to Mom whenever she got tired so you can bet I was singing one of our favorite songs called "Can You Hold Me" while she was sleeping now. A nurse came in to compliment my singing and take Mom's information. I kept singing while she took them then snuggled up to Mom's side before I fell asleep.

I woke up and ran to the drinking fountain since my throat was crazy dry. On my way back I felt a chill and looked all around me before writing it off as nothing. That's when I saw that there were multiple doctors and nurses surrounding Mom's room.

I ran up to one of them, "What's going on with Mom?!"

It was the one who complimented my singing before. She crouched down and explained that her monitor had gone off again, but this time it was flatlining. I froze as I heard, "Clear," from in the room.

They kept trying until, after fifteen tries, they called her time. I was trembling in the nurse's arms. My mom. The one I was just with, was dead. She was there, then just gone, out of nowhere. I clenched my fist before sobbing and collapsing against the nurse.

She could only hold my sniveling and shaking form as the doctors and other nurses prepped mom for an autopsy thing. Another nurse came to help me and I followed her to the break room. They gave me some food and called my father.

He came 20 minutes later and didn't even tell me. Just went straight up, but I could tell. The sand and gravel dust was lifted into the air and circled around the room, letting him know I was there. He was feeling the vibrations in the air for me so he knew I was here.

The nurses that were with me cradled me and tried to calm me down. They even told me their names were Kim and Melinda. I clutched Melinda as she took me out to my father who only seemed defeated by reality.

He took me in his arms and held me closely. We had just lost our beloved mother and wife. It was never gonna be the same again. We would never have these pleasant mornings again and she would never talk to me about my miniscule problems again.

She would never give me love advice or make me blush with a comment in front of a boy friend. I wouldn't be able to help her with tough cases anymore and she wouldn't see me become Prism the Glass Shard Hero. She wouldn't see my hero outfit that she helped design.

She and I had made so many different plans ahead of time and now they were nothing but the dust surrounding Dad and me. When we arrived home the only thing we could do was go to Dad and Mom's room and fall asleep in each other's arms.

I had dreams of my Mom saying goodbye to me before disappearing and leaving me with a chill. They would show her in a bright white dress and me in my plain clothes.

"I have to go Twinkle," she would whisper.

All I could do was nod to her and give her a hug. Then she would walk off into the distance and the sound of a flatline would fill the empty void.

Kacchan, Ria-chan, and Izu-chan tried to help me through it but I would just stay silent and shake my head. Soon the funeral came around. We had the viewing/wake at one of her favorite parks and luckily, somehow, we were able to have peace throughout the park.

It was as if everyone in our neighborhood knew that something was wrong and not to go to the park. The park was decorated in the way that everywhere you looked would be filled with Lily of the Valleys and Bluebells. They represented her hair favorite color and the color of her eyes.

Kacchan, Ria-chan, and Izu-chan were there with their families to help me through the devastation. Mom's police squad were there to mourn and some heroes came in formal attire to support Dad; they included Midnight, Best Jeanist, and Gang Orca plus some others that I didn't know.

I couldn't look at Mom until the last person had done so. I looked down at her from the stool for kids. The mortician had done a very good job at making her look less sickly but her skinnieness was easy to see.

Her cheekbones protrudes and the skin on her sleeveless shoulder looked stretched across. Her beauty black hair had been left the way it was before, fizzy and long. Her long whit dress had been picked out by me.

She had never been big on sleeves at home so I had chosen a strapless, white flower, and silky knee-length sundress. It was matched with pastel yellow shoes that were memory foam inside so Mom would be comfortable in heaven.

It was believed that whatever someone was buried in was what they would wear when they first entered Heaven so it had been a huge honor. Some other people would've chosen something more formal but Mom wouldn't want to be walking into Heaven like she just came home from work.

Dad had chosen traditional burial so that we didn't have to see her burn into ashes. Her coffin was a simple black birch design. The outside was painted black with designs carved in, showing the original color of the wood

We all left our letters for her and started the burial process. It was a little easier to accept that she was gone while the dirt was dusted onto the coffin's fine finish. I sobbed into Kacchan's chest while they finished the final placings. He could only hug me and try to calm me down.

Ria-chan gave me a homemade painting of my Mom to hang up and Izu-chan gave me an extra special journal entry of my Mom's quirk with a small letter for me. Kacchan gave me a promise bracelet that came with a little note that said "When this bracelet breaks, all your dreams and wishes will come true".

They all left Dad and I to mourn. We were both wearing Baby Lavender since a 'No Black Warning' had been printed on our invites. There was no way that we were going to wear a blec black to Mom's funeral.

We went home and looked over a photo album of our seven years as a family. There were pictures of the beach, pictures of Mom and I doing Dad's makeup, and pictures of us sleeping on the couch together. Most of these were taken by Guests that always remarked at how close of a family we were and how happy we always seemed

Now our house seemed drained of all color and life. Not even the plant I had in my room was happy. I stared at the Bluebell. I was going to give her this on her birthday. It was two months away and by then it would either be dead or it would've grown into a big pretty flower.

But now her pretty flower of a life, had been shriveled and left to decay in the ground.

Victoria's P.O.V. (AGE: STILL 12)

I opened my right eye a little bit and looked around me. The room I was laying in was incredibly bright and covered in soft colors. I brought my hand up to ease the growing headache that was pounding throughout my skull.

I tried to look around but my head was really heavy and hard to move. A flurry of movement caught my eye. I followed it to an older man in his 40s pacing around my room. He had pink dreads and was covered in grease like he just sefl-exploded.

"U-uncle," I coughed out.

He looked at me and ran to my side with tears in his eyes, "Oh my gods and goddesses, Victoria! You're okay, right? You aren't having any discomfort anywhere, right? Are you having any bad thoughts or anything like that?"

I shook my head and winced, "Yeah… I'm having a bit of a headache right now. Could you turn off the lights, please?"

"Oh yes of course, sweetie, of course."

He moved away from me and flipped off the lights. I opened my eyes wider and remembered what had happened. Tears came to my eyes as I thought about what happened to mommy and daddy.

"Okay Vic," Uncle said hesitantly, "How are you feeling right now? Anything else I can do for you?"

I thought for a bit, "How are mommy and daddy?"

"...Your father is…..and your mother is in intensive care."

"I see," I tried to keep the tears in but one fell subconsciously, "So what that man said was true."

He nodded and held my hand, "You can cry, sweetie. No one is watching but me."

I choked and broke down. Uncle could only hold my hand and pet my hair down. I curled up towards him and tried to stop crying while he rubbed my arms up and down, stopping before and after my elbow joint.

"What's wrong with my arms, Uncle?"

"Well sweetie, one of the doctors heard that you wanted to keep your arms. He made it so you can still use them by ways of magnetic technology. According to what he told me, you can repel or attract your arms below the elbow. He also said that he could reverse the effects if you'd like."

I stuck my right arm out of the sheets and stared at where my elbow should've been. It wasn't there. It was just like it had been cut out of my arm and then the rest were separated. The ends were rounded out like what it would look like if they had been amputated. The lower half of my arm was slightly shinier and cooler, like metal. I pinched myself and felt it on my arm.

"No I think I'm going to try them out for a year or so and test them out."

Uncle nodded slowly and looked me in the eyes, "You're so much like your father. I'm sorry about the accident."

I shook my head, "No, it's okay. Not like you could have changed anything about what happened. Can I be alone for a little bit? I just need to process everything."

"Yeah sweetie," Uncle stood up and walked towards the door, "Just press that purple button if you need anything."

I just nodded and stared up at the ceiling. Daddy was dead and Mommy could die at any time now. It was tough to think about being completely alone in the world. Would I go to live with Uncle or would I have to go into child services and jump from house to house.

Then I bolted up, much to the discomfort of my body. I tried to get out of the sheets but I only managed to get more tangled in the white sheets. I looked around for the purple button but I couldn't find it. I yanked off the heart monitor thingy and stood up with the sheets still wrapped around my legs.

I stepped out of the sheets and fell down to my knees. I looked behind me and found that the bottom half of my legs were also disconnected. I focused on the magnetic theory and made the legs fall out of the sheets. I stood up steadily and tried taking a step. They worked like normal legs; they were just disconnected.

I leaned against the IV thing, like in the movies and tried to go out into the hall before getting stopped by two nurses and my doctor.

I waved them away, "You don't understand. I have to tell her!"

"Who, honey," one of the nurses asked, looking me in the eye, "Who do you need, tell what?"

"My sister!"

"Allyson is still with her caretaker," Uncle explained, helping me back into bed, "We haven't been able to get a hold of them since we didn't know who was watching her."

I kept my legs hanging off the bed while he explained. So much had happened in just a couple of short hours. We were in an accident and my younger sister didn't even know anything had happened.

She was too young to lose all of her family, "When can I leave?"

Another nurse burst into the room, "Doctor Charlie! Sabrina Azby has flatlined! We need you in room 376! NOW!"

I stared at the ground in shock. Sabrina Azby… That is my mother's name. Uncle froze as well. He clung to my hand and I clung to his. His sister and my mother was flatlining. What crappy luck I had.

First, my family and I are in a car accident while we can't get a hold of the sitter. Second, my father is dead. And third, my mother is currently flatlining in a whole different part of this hospital and I can't do anything about it.

Half an hour later, Doctor Charlie walked back into my room and shattered my world.

"I'm sorry for your loss," Doctor Charlie whispered, "Your mother died at 5:37 pm on April 17, XXXX. I tried my hardest to bring her back but…."

I stared at the floor and mumbled, "At least you tried to save her…."

Uncle took the doctor out to talk about what would happen to Allyson and me or whatever paperwork he needed to fill out for mom, dad, and I. I shook my head as I tried to think about what just happened and what I was going to do next.

My vision blurred as the tears finally came to my eyes as the weight of my situation sank in. Tears fell onto the back of my hands as I leaned over my legs, hanging over the edge of the bed still. I heard the door open and saw a pair of legs walk over to me.

The man sat on the bed beside and opened his arms towards me. I looked up at his chest and just fell into his hug, not caring who he was. He hugged me back and started rubbing my back.

I could only sob and hold onto his jacket as he hugged me and tried to calm me down. A few shuddering sobs marked the end of my crying as he kept me in his firm grasp. When I finally stopped crying, after 20 minutes, he helped me look up into his eyes.

They were the same blue electric blue as the man who had helped me through the crash and who had helped me on the ride to the hospital. He looked in my eyes and leaned his forehead against mine. I felt the tears sting my eyes again and leaned against his too.

"I'm so sorry about your parents," he spoke softly, as if not to scare me, "I wish I could have been more helpful to you and your family, but maybe I still can. If your uncle can't take care of you and your sister, I could…"

I leaned back and looked at him surprised, "You would really do that? Even to someone you don't even know? Why?"

He leaned back on the bed and looked up at the ceiling, "I think it's because you remind me a little of my former mentor. That look in your eyes when I first saw you, you didn't look worried for yourself. You were worried for everyone else affected in the crash, not yourself."

I looked down at my hands and thought back to the crash. I guess I wasn't super worried about myself but I don't think that I was too worried over everyone but my family. I shook my head to myself.

"My offer still stands," he muttered, "I'm willing to help with whatever you need of me. Oh! By the way, my name is Toshinori Yagi. Just ask one of the nurses if you need my number."

I looked up as he stood up from the bed and walked back towards the door. He waved shyly to me before leaving the room. I waved back after he closed the door and lay back down on the bed vertically.

I stared up at the ceiling and tried to think through all of the harsh memories. Maybe being adopted would be like a new start to my life or something like that. My mind wandered to Allyson again.

I wonder if she was okay. I wonder if she would even remember our parents all that well. She was eight but that didn't mean she would remember much of them.

Maybe that was for the best.

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE: 8)

I looked at the clock again. 2:27 AM shined through the blanket I laid on it. I sighed and turned around to look at the wall. It had been around four years since we found out about my quirk. My mother has yet to look at me like her little girl since that day.

My father was just more timid around me but at least he tried to look at me. Mother forced me to wear a cloth over my eyes everyday. I'm pretty sure that she would never be able to look at me like her daughter again.

I turned onto my back and stared up at the ceiling in dismay. I closed my eyes and tried to go to sleep again. My nights were filled with nightmares ever since my quirk took full effect on my body. I slipped into a restless sleep and was woken back up to my door creaking open.

I bolted up and looked over to the person who had come in.

"M-mom," I cowered, "What is it? Is something wrong?"

"Everything is fine sweetie," she answered erily, "I'm going to fix those eyes of yours. You're going to be reborn normal, not with that villain quirk."

"What are you talking about? That's not possible."

"Oh but it is, little Jordan. If I kill you or gouge out your eyes your quirk won't work and you'll be reborn."

"Mom please don't do this…"

"I'M NOT YOUR MOTHER!"

She screamed before running towards me. I screamed and brought up my arms to try and protect myself. Then soft music filled the room, making my mother tired. She reached my bed and nicked my eyelid before falling onto the ground.

I looked over at my bedroom door and saw my father. He walked in quickly, picked up my trembling figure, and locked the door after we got out. I clung to him as he called the cops in a cool and calm manner. When they arrived, he told them what happened while holding me closer than he ever had.

"Yes," he answered one of the detectives, "She walked into the room and attempted to kill or hurt her. She was ready to kill the only child we've ever had."

I held daddy closer as the detective kept asking questions. Quickly I realized that my eyes were open. I ran into daddy's room and grabbed a spare bandana. I wrapped it around my eyes and felt my way back to the living room.

"Oh Jordan, Sweetheart...," Daddy picked me up and set me on his lap, "Thank you for trying to keep us safe, but you don't have to wear that anymore."

"But what if it gets out of hand! I-I can't control it yet."

"Well then I guess we'll have to learn, won't we?"

I nodded silently. He set his chin on the top of my head and continued to talk to the detective. I heard a squad come out of my room with my mother restrained. She was thrashing around like a maniac shouting stuff about how I wasn't her daughter.

"SHE'S NOT MINE! THAT MONSTER ISN'T MY DAUGHTER!"

I winced at her words before I felt hands set over my ears. I looked up, through the blindfold, and saw my father. He was staring at my mother with anger flooding through his eyes. I was going to turn my head towards her but, daddy held my head in the same direction.

"I don't want you to see this," daddy whispered, "I don't want your spirit to break. You don't need this in your mind."

I stayed still while her screams could be heard throughout the entire neighborhood. They drove away with my mother while the rest of the cops left to patrol the neighborhood. Daddy didn't let me go for the rest of the night and I didn't mind one bit. With his warmth I was able to fall asleep easier and had less nightmares.

I was the first to wake up and when I saw that daddy wasn't going to let me go I fell asleep again. I slept until daddy woke up. I didn't want something bad to happen again.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE: 9)

Rodney opened the door and my breath hitched before I ran forwards to my brother. My brother who had lost everything below his knees in a car accident.

"CODEN," I yelled, "YOU'RE FINALLY HOME!"

I collapsed short of him and hugged him around his waist. He was hesitant at first but then he started to cry and leaned over my body in an awkward hug.

I looked up into his eyes and smiled widely. He sniffed and looked back at me, his eyebrows slightly upturned.

"I missed you Codey!"

He sniffled and wiped away some stray tears, "I missed you too, Mey!"

I stood up and wiped my nose and eyes while Mama said 'hi' and hugged him too. Rainer and Rodney only watched while paying the driver and gathering their luggage. Coden wheeled up the driveway while we all talked a bit about their trip and how the flight was.

Rodney and Rainer helped Coden up the stairs and we all went to the living room. I sat down on the couch behind Coden and beside Rodney, Rainer sat next to Mama on the opposite couch.

"So," Mama started, "How have you been feeling Coden?"

I could hear the pity dripping from her voice and knew that Coden could hear it too. I looked diagonally at Coden to my left and thought about how he would have been feeling. He was staring down at his legs.

"I've been feeling fine since the accident. A headache here or there but otherwise it's just been emotional," he answered after a couple of uncomfortable seconds.

She nodded, "Well, um, can you tell me what happened?"

He looked up and nodded, "We were on our way to the airport when we got hit by a car. It flipped over us and nearly landed on me. It bent in the roof and caused the seat in front of me to crush my legs."

"When we arrived at the hospital...Well I think Rodney and Rainer can tell you a better story."

The two men looked at each other and nodded before Rodney continued the story, "The ambulances arrived, after someone called them, like five minutes later. Coden was loaded in safely. I went with him and Rainer went with our driver from New York. When we got there, they rushed Coden in and operated on his legs."

"They couldn't be saved," Rainer continued, his danish accent peeking through his japanese. "The doctors said that either Coden could go through therapy with prosthetics or he could come home with a wheelchair and figure it out from there."

"Coden wanted to come here as soon as he could so their official healer healed his legs after they were amputated and we caught the soonest plane here."

It was silent for an uncomfortable amount of time before Mama broke the silence. "Well at least you guys are still alive and unharmed."

Coden snapped, "What do you mean unharmed? Mom I literally can't walk anymore!"

"I know, I just-"

"NO MOM! YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HOW I FEEL! I AM BROKEN! I CAN NEVER WALK AGAIN! I CAN'T DO ANYTHING! PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF ME FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!"

I winced while he continued to yell, "I'M BROKEN AND I CAN'T FIX IT! MY LEGS ARE DESTROYED! THEY DON'T EVEN WORK!"

"ENOUGH!"

Coden jumped when I screamed. I stared at him with rage filling my brain. "Are you serious? You're broken? Yeah right! You can still use your arms and hands, can't you? You can still speak, right. HECK! YOU CAN STILL USE YOUR LEGS!"

I walked in front of him and sat on his lap without falling off. "See? Don't you see? You aren't broken just because you can't walk around...You can still stargaze and I can still sit on your lap."

I started to tear up, "Yes it was a horrible thing that happened, but you don't have to take it out on Mama. She was trying to help your mindset. I-I'll be in my room if you need me."

I stood up and left the room in silence. I quickly walked to my room and closed my door before sliding down it. I let a few tears shed and looked up through the window before whispering for Virgo.

"Virgo...I need a hug."

She shone through the small purple crystal on my necklace. She was a bit bigger than the rest of the zodiacs but she was the nicest. She was always wearing an apron and a sundress like she had just finished baking something, but when you got her mad, she could drop kick you into the next city using her super strength.

She was more of a woman in her early twenties and killed me whenever she said she only saw Taurus as a friend. She looked around and quickly crouched down beside me. She opened her arms towards me and I fell into them.

I heard the Coden, Rodney, Rainer, and Mama continue the conversation so that was a weight off my shoulders. Virgo talked with me about whatever came to mind so I could calm down then sent me to the bathroom to shower. I walked to the bathroom straight across from me and spied a look into the living room.

No one was there so I figured that Mama was showing where Rodney and Rainer would be staying in the basement. I didn't know if Coden had gone with them or was just in the kitchen doing something, so I quickly jumped into the shower.

I washed my hair and finished up before dressing and walking back to my room. I was drying my hair off when I looked up and saw Coden staring out my window.

"Coden, are you okay?"

He made a three point turn and looked at me with tearied eyes, "I'm sorry I exploded Mame. I was just frustrated with myself and y'know everything else too."

I nodded and sat on the bed, "Yeah I get it…Grade school has been a pain without any friends or siblings to talk to, but, eh, I can get through it."

Coden placed his hand on my hand, "I'm sorry I made this all about me. I should've asked how you were doing. I made this all about me, didn't I?"

I shook my head and smiled at him, "Well it should've been anyway. You ARE missing the bottom half of your legs. My problems are miniscule compared to your problems."

"No they aren't. Your problems are just as important as mine, Mey."

I looked away and shook my head. He pulled my chin back towards him, making him look into my eyes. He stared into my eyes and I stared into his.

His gray eyes were filled with worry and love. They were so much different than our ex-father's. They were always kind and happy.

"I love you Mey. Your problems are important to me. Just remember that you can come to me too. You don't just have your zodiacs anymore."

I nodded and hugged him, "Thanks Codey! I love you too, brother"

"Alright let's go out. Mama's making taiyaki for dinner today!"

I jumped up and ran to the door, "I'll race you to the kitchen!"

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE: 9)

I tightened the mask's strings together and readjusted it. When my eyes lined with the mask's cut outs, I slipped on my black hoodie and ran out the door of my building. I summoned the shadows from inside my clothes and swung onto a lamp post then a close by neighborhood house.

I kept running until I heard a yell for help. I ran towards the sound and found a man harassing a teenage guy.

"Come on just give me the money," the man harshly whispered.

"Please let me go," the teen pleaded, "I don't have it with me. I was just coming back from the pharmacy."

I looked around and thought about my actions. They were in a close alley between houses and there weren't any kind of weapons the teen could use. I shook my head quickly and jumped down from the roof.

"You should probably run man," I said, trying to sound as menacing as I could, "Honestly, crooks like you tick me off."

He laughed, "Get out of here kid, before I pummel you too."

"I warned you."

He turned towards me and started to grow bigger. It was the low time criminal that had somehow evaded the police up until this moment. His quirk allowed him to transfer the water in his own body to somewhere else in his body. It definitely packed a punch.

I summoned a bunch of shadows from all around us and formed a somewhat solid shield in front of me. Since I still didn't know how to make my shadows completely solid, it was mostly to try and scare the perp off.

He chuckled, "A couple of shadows aren't going to scare me, Brat!"

He lunged towards me and swung right above my head. I ducked to be sure it wouldn't contact with me and ran towards the teen. I clipped him around the waist and hefted him over my shoulder. He was a tad heavy but luckily I had been climbing around my house more than usual to gain more muscle lately.

I launched all the shadows to the bottom of my feet and thrust them up from under us. I sunk into them a bit but eventually something caught and I was launched up to the roof of the nearest house. I ran and hopped, with the help of my shadows, from rooftop to rooftop.

The teen tried to help but ended up making me stumble more than once. I shook my head and ducked into another alleyway beside the police station. I set the teen down and instructed him to go and tell the police what had happened.

He ran into the building and told the police what happened. I ran out of the alley and got pushed into a roof by someone who was as hot as fire. I twisted under the weight and heat before I finally pushed shadows into his face.

I slipped out from under him and whipped around to see the man. It was Endeavor, the Flame Hero. He glared at me through his stupid flame mask thing. His teal eyes glared into my ocean blue ones.

I wouldn't say that I hated him but I definitely wouldn't agree with how he took care of some of the villains and vigilantes. Then I realized that he was after me since I was a vigilante too. I threw a shadow ball and ran in the opposite direction.

Judging by the light behind me I could tell he was following me. I ran and ran until I thought of a place where I could lose him. I ran towards the park and ran up a tree.

He ran under me and away from me. I was about to sneak away when I was wrapped up in some sort of cloth. It pulled me from the tree and brought me face to face with another hero. He stared at me and suddenly the shadows I was gathering fell back into shape.

He looked at me intently and then lowered us to the ground. He dropped me onto my feet and turned away from us.

"Go home kid," he groaned, "I'm tired of dealing with vigilantes. Just go to wherever you live and stop this vigilante business. It's dangerous."

"Don't plan on me ever stopping sir," I responded quickly, "This town is too run down to not get help from vigilantes."

He turned his head to look at me, "Well, can't disagree with that logic. Alright, whatever, just be more careful. If it weren't for us, that criminal would have hit you right between your shoulder blades."

I stepped back in disbelief and was about to ask about what he meant when he tilted his head to listen to a noise. I looked around and saw a deep orange glow coming from the direction the dark hero was looking.

"You should probably go kid," he groaned inwardly, "Endeavor isn't a big fan of vigilantes. Maybe one day you could become a licensed hero instead of an illegal vigilante. Hope you make it that long. Good luck kid."

"Thank you sir," I whispered as he ran towards the flame hero. I ran in the opposite direction and back to my building.

Victoria's P.O.V. (AGE: 12 still)

I jumped up from the pillow when my room door opened suddenly.

"Sissy," a little girl screamed, "Are you okay!?"

"What th- Allyson," I exclaimed as the small girl flopped into the bed sheets.

She looked up at me, "What happened?! Where are momma and daddy?!"

My heart caught in my throat and I jumped forward, grabbing her in a hug. She sniffled and started crying as all I could was hold her close and hold back my own tears. I snuggled into her sandy shoulder length hair.

I thought about our parents. Allyson had the same hair color as mom and dad's gray eyes. I stroked her hair softly and looked up to see our neighbor, who had been taking care of her.

"Have they decided who'll be taking us in," I asked tentatively.

She shook her head, "Your uncle is hesitant since he's already taking care of four kids but there is a man that offered to adopt you guys if no one could take you girls."

I widened my eyes in surprise, "Who would do that? Do we know him?"

"You've met him before but no, you don't necessarily know him well."

"Do you know who he is?"

"Yes….I went to school with him. I believe, unless he was a really late bloomer, he is actually quirkless."

I leaned against the pillow, still holding Allyson, "Can I talk to him?"

She nodded, "Of course!"

She left the room and I tucked Allyson into my bed since she had cried herself to sleep. I jumped down and stumbled to the wall. I used it as a crutch and walked over to the window so I could look over the city.

I stared up at the cloudy sky and thought about whether mom and dad were in heaven or if it was called something else. I had been asking the big questions since the accident a week ago.

A knock broke me from my trance. I turned around carefully and breathed a sigh of relief. It was the same man that had been there with me during the crash. He looked at me and walked over to the window, beside me.

He was super tall up close. Like 6''3 or something. I looked up at him while he looked down to me. His eyes weren't filled with pity or even sadness. It was a mixture of determination and something else that I couldn't place my finger on. Then I noticed the bags under his eyes and how tired he actually looked.

"When was the last time you slept well sir," I asked, staring into his eyes.

He shrugged and scratched his neck before aiming his gaze to the ceiling, "Maybe around four days ago. It's been a while, young one."

"Why?"

"I've been staying over in the hospital guest ward."

I stepped back, "What!? Why!?"

He shuffled his feet, "I've been worried about you….I guess that's kind of creepy coming from me, huh?"

I shook my head a little, "Meh, not really when it's coming from the person who saved me. You've been staying here this entire time?"

He nodded, "I was staying with an old friend for a bit but I couldn't get any sleep," he chuckled, "You should've seen me when I was staying at his, I was a wreck."

I smiled before turning back towards the window, "This world is so harsh. It takes and gives without balance."

He looked at me, "I guess sometimes it could feel like it's unbalanced, but when your parents passed two new children were born somewhere else in the world. This world is very harsh on young souls who don't fully know the rest of the world but to me, I see it as if it's just trying to keep everyone happy but it can't."

"With death for one, comes birth for another. That's why a lot of people believe in reincarnation. It's a good way to cope with death and loss. It really depends on how you want to believe in life after death."

My vision blurred as tears fell from my eyes. The man opened his arms towards me and hugged me. I hugged him back and sobbed into his jacket. He stroked my head and tried to calm me down with soothing words.

I sniffled and muttered into his jacket, "I think you'd be the best option for us. Will you be our new guardian?"

He stiffened and at first I was scared that he was going to say no, "Yes. I think we'll be able to help each other very much."

I snuggled into his jacket and sighed. I felt safe and warm for the first time since the cold crash of reality had been rung through my ears. He was going to take care of us.

~Time Skip~ (Two days)

I turned to look in the mirror one last time. My face had vivid scratches that had left scars all over my body. I had had three on the right side of my face and two on my left. My shoulders both had multiple scars and my flesh arms, , that's what I call the top half of my arms,had scars too, had scars too. Finally my legs had a ton of scratches that criss-crossed and stung my skin.

I was wearing a lilac tank-top and jean shorts. I looked down at the small black flats and messed with the magnetic flow of my legs. If I concentrate I could make them tip opposite directions; Allyson had been loving them so far.

My now short hair was pulled into a small ponytail and tied back with a bandana. I turned away from the mirror and walked out of the hospital room bathroom.

I limped out into the room and looked around at the empty room. It looked weird without all the get well things sent by my school and friends. I limped to the door and walked out to Allyson who was sitting on a bench waiting for me.

She jumped off and grabbed my hand. I looked down at her and she looked up at me.

"You ready Al," I squeezed her hand softly.

She nodded, "Let's go on another adventure!"

I chuckled and chanted with her about the future. We made it to the elevator and soon we were in the lobby waiting for the blonde guy. Allyson was playing with my legs when he came around the corner.

"Are you two ready to go to your new home," he asked carefully.

I laughed softly and looked at Allyson who was smiling, "Yup. It's just another adventure so we're prepared for anything."

"Yeah it's another adventure," Allyson yelled happily, "We can do it! We are going on an adventure!"

The man smiled and held out his hands to us. I grabbed his right and Allyson grabbed his left. Unfortunately for him he had to bend down to hold Ally's hand. She sang the entire way to the car. The man helped her in and I hopped into the passenger's side.

He went around the car and hopped in. He adjusted the mirrors and then started going. He warned us of the long trip and told us it would be around an hour or two before we arrived at his house.

Allyson fell asleep halfway through and gave the man and I time to talk.

"So what should I call you now," I asked.

He glanced at me and back at the road, "Depends if you see me as your father or just a caregiver."

I thought for a minute, "I guess right now I see you as a caregiver."

"Alright then just call me Toshinori. Or Yagi if you'd like. It doesn't matter to me."

"Yagi it is then. You can call me Victoria or Ria."

"What about Vicky?"

"Haha...No. Not Vicky. I don't even let my friends call me Vicky."

He chuckled and turned into a restaurant drive thru, "You want anything?"

I nodded, "Can I have some chicken tenders and just a small water?"

He nodded, "Anything you think Allyson would want?"

I thought a little, "Probably a small cheeseburger and a small root beer."

"Alrighty then."

I looked around the car and smiled. My life felt like, even though it was just shattered on the ground, it was picking itself up slowly.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE: 10 almost 11)

I wiped a tear away from my cheek. We were doing a quirk and physical assessment. I had just finished the race with a gnarly scratch along my leg from being tripped by a rude girl named Bianca.

She had a water quirk so I couldn't fight back with my quirk. She bullied me whenever she could. Today it only looked like some sort of friendly competition between two girls. I stood up and limped to the nurse's office.

"Oh my gosh Alexa what happened," Rosa ran up to me from one of the classrooms, "Was it Bianca again?!"

I nodded, "Yeah we were doing the race and she tripped me. It's fine though, just a scratch."

"Just a scratch?! Alexa you're leaving a trail along the ground. Come on, I'll help you."

I put my arm around her shoulder and limped with her to the nurse's office. Immediately the nurse rushed to help me to a bed. Rosa stayed until the nurse dismissed her. She wrapped my leg and healed the inside of the cut.

She sent me off with a note and a "Be more careful." I rolled my eyes and walked to the locker rooms. I entered and saw that it was only me and another girl with black hair. I went over to my locker and dug out my school uniform.

I buttoned up the shirt and zipped up the skirt zipper before tying the tie around my neck. I straightened it and lifted the jacket onto my shoulders. Careful of the bandages, I slipped on my socks and inside shoes.

I fixed my hair quickly in the mirror and walked to my next class. It was art with Rosa and Christine. Christine was an interesting girl. It seemed she was always on her phone or laughing at a joke from an hour ago. I couldn't remember her quirk but I think it was something with water, too.

Rosa waved me over after I handed my note to the teacher, who begrudgingly took it. I walked over to my desk and sat down for the teacher to continue her lesson.

I finished up my penciled lily drawing and turned it into the teacher then proceeded to doodle on some of my math assignments. Principal Coran walked into the classroom out of nowhere.

"Excuse me Ms. Gabby," He bowed towards the teacher, "May I talk to Ms. Karine. It's urgent."

I stood up and walked out with him. We had walked about three doors when he stopped and turned towards me with tears in his eyes.

I shivered when he looked me in the eyes, "What? What happened, sir?"

He hugged me, "I'm so sorry Alexa but your father was in an accident on the way home. He's in Jorco Hospital right now."

I went rigid hearing that once again in my life. I shook my head in disbelief and stepped away from him. I started to hyperventilate and pushed away from Principal Coran.

"Alexa," Principal Coran, "You need to calm down. I can take you to the hospital but-"

I turned around and ran away from him. I ran throughout the halls trying to find a way out. I jumped down the stairs to the first floor and ran out the front doors. I quickly ran through the courtyard and ran through the side door in the wall.

I wiped away tears as I ran towards the hospital. About one-third of the way I passed by the wreckage of the accident. Quickly I ran towards the wreck and tried to see if my father was still there. A young boy, about my age, held me back while his mother offered to take me to the hospital. Soon we arrived at the hospital. I ran to the front desk and asked about my father. The desk lady pointed me to the intense care rooms.

"Last room on the right before the corner," She said carefully, "He might not be accepting visitors, young lady."

I walked quickly in the direction she pointed and arrived at the room. I knocked on the door and walked in surprised to see a glass wall in front of the actual room. A doctor standing behind the glass wall was surprised to see me come in.

"Can I help you, young lady," He asked, turning towards me.

I placed a hand on the glass, trying to avoid seeing my father, "This is Karine John's Room right. I came from school as soon as my principal told me that he was in an accident. I saw the wreckage on the way here. How did this happen?"

The doctor sighed, "According to my sources, he was on his way home from getting groceries and was hit by a drunk driver on a bridge. The drunkard rammed into the driver's side of the car. They spun off of the freeway and fell down off the bridge."

I put my forehead against the glass, still avoiding my father's sleeping figure. "We still aren't sure whether he's going to make it or not but we can hope for him."

I finally looked into the room and saw my father. He was covered in a white sheet except for his face. There was a mask over his mouth to help him breath and tubes all over that were connected to complex machines. I felt tears flood to my eyes and suddenly was trying to hold it all in.

I leaned against the wall and made my way to the chairs set up against the opposite wall. The doctor set his hand on my shoulder before he left. I hunched over my knees and started crying until Principal Coran came in and tried to calm me down.

Coran Tesca was an old family friend so I could tell that he was feeling very sad as well, but I couldn't stop crying into his jacket. He rubbed my back and tried to comfort me while I choked in the air. Someone burst into the room and wrapped me into their arms.

"Oh Alexa," my Aunt Melody cried, "It's okay sweetheart. I'm so sorry dear. I'm here for you, I'm here."

I sobbed into her brown leather jacket while she tried to comfort me. She had lost her brother and sister-in-law while I had lost my mother and now my father. A couple of hours later the rest of the family was there.

My grandparents, Aunt Melody, Uncle Yami, Uncle Lang, and some of my cousins came to talk about what was going to happen to my father and me. Aunt Melody was probably the only one willing to help me out, afterall I was an accident at first.

My mother had been pregnant with me about a month out of highschool. My father at the time was still in highschool and knew that she was expecting. They panicked at first but then told their parents with confidence.

My grandparents hated my mom for ruining their reputation with me but never crouched low enough to say that. They would have disowned Father if I hadn't gotten such a strong quirk, I knew that much.

My mother's parents were adoptive and were sort of supportive of them until they passed away from old age. So I had never really gotten the grandparent love from either pair.

My uncles were both older and successful with perfect families. One was a somewhat famous hero named Fire Aspect. He was basically a heated iron that couldn't be affected by fire. The other was working on making buildings fireproof and safer.

Aunt Melody was a successful quirk teacher and always played with me since I was young. She acted like a protective sister rather than an aunt. She was the youngest of them all and was around 26 now. She always wore fireproof clothes in case grandfather used his quirk on her again.

She had been trying to protect Mother when she first found out she was pregnant and Grandfather punched her with his Fire Fist quirk before he could stop himself. It had left a nasty scar and she never let him forget it.

"So you're going to make her go to an orphanage rather than taking care of her yourself," Aunt Melody shouted.

Grandfather looked away, "She is no use to me and brings nothing of use for me. What's the point of keeping her."

Aunt Melody bristled, "You guys are horrible. She is your blood and genetics. Why do you wish to be rid of her?"

"She is nothing but an accidental body of flesh," grandmother spat.

I chuckled and everyone looked at me. I shook my head, "You are the worst family ever. I'm glad Father is joining Mother in Heaven and you don't want me."

"You devil child, how dare you," Grandmother screamed.

"Because I'm glad that now, I don't have to be associated with you horrible people."

I stood up and walked right up to my grandfather, "I hate your blood. I wish I didn't have it in my body right now. It boils in hatred even though it's you that comes into the room. It boils at the thought that it was ever like you. I'm grateful that my father wasn't as blind as Uncle Yami and Uncle Lang."

"You may be respected by your most successful children but not by Aunt Melody, Father, and I, who might I remind you, could blow you up right now."

I left the room and ran to the roof. I made it up and leaned against the fence. I felt the tears come and fall as quickly as I had left. I kneeled down and tried to breathe in slowly. I stared up at the sunset clouds and yelled as loud as I could.

"I'll Protect Your Names! I Promise I Will! Y-you don't h-have to worry a-about me! Mom! Dad! I-I'll do it! I'll be a hero for both of you!"

I sobbed until night fell and the lights of Father's room went out.

~Life Now That No One's Dying~

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE: 11)

"Salena, I want you to finally meet my fiance," my father said from my door frame.

I gasped as a woman came into my room. Her hair was a salmon pink color while her eyes were bright neon green. She was wearing a sleek black dress and black high heels.

"What do you mean fiance," I stood up quickly.

"Well I didn't want to tell you in case it didn't work out but this is Juno Martine. We met about 4 months ago and we've fallen in love."

I stared at him, "Are you serious? You're getting married. Dad, Mom only died like 8 months ago! How could you already have moved on!?"

I felt a sting on my cheek and was flung backwards. I lifted my hand to my cheek and stared at my father who was still frozen in the motion of slapping me.

I got up slowly and glared at my father, "Get. Out."

"Salena-"

I screamed, "GET OUT!"

A burst ran throughout the room and suddenly all of the glass around me was aimed at the adults. I lifted my hand and shot some glass shards into the doorframe around them. My father flinched and quickly ushered Juno out of my room.

I returned all the glass to its original shape and kneeled against my bed. I cried into my sheets until it was time to go to bed. I was lucky enough to have a bathroom inside my room so I took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, and changed into my pajamas.

I heard a knock on my door but didn't care to unlock it. They knocked again before sighing and walking away. I shook my head and laid down on my bed. This was going to be a very hard relationship to deal with.

~Time Skip~ (a month)

I waved to Victoria while trying to fake a smile. Today was my father's wedding to Juno. I hadn't been talking to him very often since he announced that he was getting married to Juno. Victoria and Izuku were the only people who cared to listen and since it had summer, Bakugou had been at a quirk strengthening camp.

Victoria ran over to me with Izuku trailing behind her, and clasped my hands in her's. She hugged me and stroked my hair. She had also lost her mom, but she also lost her dad and joints in a car accident.

At first it was strange to see, but we all got used to it. She was always picked for quirk baseball in P.E. Izuku came from behind and hugged me too. He and I were as close as siblings usually are. I thought of him as a brother and he thought of me as a sister.

We could talk about anything between the three of us. Some things were kept from Bakugou and Terra, whom we had met in Middle school. Terra was coming too but she was a bit late. Miss Midoriya was walking along with Victoria's adoptive guardian, Mr. Toshinori. She chose to keep her parent's last name but also took his after a couple of months.

Victoria's little sister Allyson ran in and grabbed me by the leg. I pat her on the head and walked along with the group to the main ballroom. It was decorated in black and cream colors.

Victoria was wearing a white floral dress while Allyson was dressed in a poofy sky blue sun dress. Izuku was in a plain black suit while Miss Midoriya wore a lilac sundress. Mr. Toshinori was just wearing a gray suit. I smoothed down my small jean, knee length dress that Juno had insisted I wear.

It was a simple tank top overall kind of dress that had pockets in the back and matching white leather boots to match. I had my hair up in a cornrow bun since it was so long. I consciously touched the glass hair clip my mom had given me for my eighth birthday.

I walked over to the gift table and took my place behind the table, to make sure no one stole anything from it. I sighed and talked with Victoria, Izuku, Allyson, and when she arrived, Terra before the reception finally started.

I had refused to help Juno or father with their preparations even though they both asked me to. I refused Juno because she had been trying to replace my mother and turn me into a model for her brand.

I only refused my father because he had yet to talk to me either. Sure I probably hurt him but he also hurt me by moving on so quickly. I stood up and took my place as a behind the audience guard.

For the same reason as I refused to help her, I also refused to be one of Juno's bridesmaids. I left that to her stupid model friends. I wanted to be able to support my father but I really couldn't help but not want to talk until he wanted to talk.

The dancing started and I watched as father and Juno danced together. They looked good together but I had a feeling Juno was mostly in this relationship for the fame. I sighed and watched as Victoria, Terra, and Izuku tried to make me laugh by dancing.

Miss Midoriya and Mr. Toshinori were dancing with Allyson while most of the other guests hung around or danced with each other.

I heard the door open and glanced towards the door before doing a double take. There standing in the doorway was an out of breath Bakugou and his mother. I stood up quickly and walked over to them.

"What are you guys doing here," I exclaimed happily.

Mrs. Bakugou smiled, "Well we couldn't have missed this opportunity to support you. Bakugou told me about how you felt about this and I understand, honey. Things like this are hard to deal with."

I nodded, "Thanks for coming!"

"Hey," Bakugou interceded, "Can you leave me and Sal alone!"

Mrs. Bakugou shook her head in disbelief, "Sure you spikey haired gremlin!"

She walked away and went to talk to Miss Midoriya while Bakugou and I were standing by the door.

I looked down at my feet, "Thanks for coming…"

He chuckled, "Yer Welcome."

We were in a comfortable silence until Bakugou held his hand out to me. I looked up at him and finally saw what he was wearing.

He was in a black dress shirt with a seafoam green tie. My mother's favorite color. His slacks were designed with small glass diamonds and some gold details. A jacket slumped in his arm had the same designs.

"Do you want ta dance or not?"

I smiled and took his hand. He led me to the table so he could set his jacket down then led me to the dance floor. One of my mother's favorite songs, that I had snuck into the playlist last minute, started to play.

Bakugou stopped somewhere in the middle of the crowd and spun me around before grabbing my hand in his. The song wasn't slow so we danced fiercely to it and spun and leaped across the floor quickly. When it was coming to the end we slowed down and stared at each other.

It stopped and we walked off the dance floor. For the rest of the night Terra, Victoria, Izuku, Bakugou, and I messed around the room. We would dance or secretly make fun of some of the stuck ups in the room. Soon the night was over and I was genuinely smiling.

I would be going home with Izuku since Father and Juno would be in Hawaii, U.S.A, for a honeymoon. They made sure to always have an extra room for people who would visit.

I waved off the newlyweds, trying to hold in the tears at how happy my father looked. I was breaking inside while cleaning up since he hadn't even looked back to me while they left.

"Salena are you almost ready to go," Izuku asked, popping into the room.

I nodded, "I just need to put these supplies away. I'll be out soon."

He held up an OK sign and left. I sighed and cleaned the last spot on the floor before putting away the mop.

I leaned against the stage thing and started to whisper out a song I had tried to write.

"One, one, one, call the ambulance. One, one, one, cause this can't be missed. One, one, one, my heart was broken in two, by you. One, one, one, the number I need. One, one, one, cause it's stopping the bleed. One, one, one, you've planted your seed. I'm the only one that I need. With you I can't succeed, it's just me and me. I'm the only that I'll ever need."

I sighed and opened the door to exit. Bakugou surprised me by being on the other side of the door. Awkwardly, I locked the door and started walking away. Bakugou followed me to the corner but stopped me shortly before it.

"Are you okay," he whispered.

I nodded, "Of course I am! My father is happy so I'm happy."

"Yeah, frickin', right! You had such a broken look in that false smile when they left. That song proved it to me."

I turned to look at him, "You heard me!? But I thought that the walls were sound-proof!"

He tilted his head sarcastically, "The walls are. The door, not so much."

I blushed and looked away quickly, "That's embarrassing."

"Back to my question. How are you doing?"

"I'm getting through it. I'll be fine after a couple of weeks."

I looked back at Bakugou, "Thanks for making me feel better."

"I didn't do crap. You just snapped out of that fake go-lucky smile."

I smiled, "You've done a lot for me. You just don't realize it!"

I walked towards him and kissed him on the cheek before I quickly speed-walked out of there blushing furiously.

Bakugou's P.O.V. (AGE: 12)

Salena stepped closer and quickly kissed me on the cheek. Then she left quickly too. I touched my cheek and smirked. I sauntered around the corner and made my way to my mother. She was chatting with Deku's mom and Deku was talking with the others. Salena was nowhere to be seen.

"Hey Hag," I called to her, "Let's go home!"

She hit me on the top of my head, "Shut it, Brat! I'm talkin' here!"

Miss Midoriya chuckled sweetly, "Oh it's okay Mitsuki. We can talk tomorrow after our sons go to school, we haven't had tea together since forever."

My mom sighed, "Too true. Alright, Katsuki, let's go now."

I grumbled as she dragged me along with her. I touched my cheek again.

I can't believe she actually kissed me.

^~Time Jump~^

Victoria's P.O.V. (AGE: 15)

I sighed dramatically, "Ugh! School sucks, man!"

Salena pulled her bag onto her lap so her skirt wouldn't lift while she was sitting on the ground, "Come on it can't be that bad! At least you have us to suffer through it with you!"

"Yeah," Terra said, sitting next to me on the bench, "We all have to suffer through it for like six more years!"

Izuku chuckled, "I think it's only five. I actually enjoy most of the lessons!"

Salena stuck out her tongue, "Of course you would! You take notes like a heckin' scribbling yeetle beetle."

He stuck his tongue out at her playfully and suddenly froze. I followed his gaze and quickly went to stand in front of the both of them. Bakugou was walking towards us with his stupid new gang. He always bullied Izuku and he had broken Salena's heart.

He walked up to me and tried to get around me. I didn't let him though.

"Get out of my way you disconnected witch."

I stared into his eyes. He was about my height if not a couple of centimeters taller.

"Go around Blasty," I snarled. Terra stood up ready to separate us if a fight ensued.

He scoffed and bumped into my shoulder. I turned to make sure he didn't do anything. He didn't do anything but look back at us sneering. We all used to be great friends but soon those weed smokers surrounded him and changed his attitude.

He started bullying Izuku and calling him names like 'Useless' or 'Deku.' He hurt Salena so much that she could only shake when he was around. I shook my head and went to help Salena up. Like always she was trying to calm down with Izuku helping her breathe.

Terra growled in disgust. I'm glad she was there. She had been through so much that she was tough to the bone. If we had gotten into a fight, she was probably the only one who could pull us apart.

Terra took the lead while Izuku and I helped Salena calm down. Terra hugged Salena and comforted her before going to her own class. Unfortunately, Terra was in a different class because of her grades and some family matters last year. I sighed and followed Izuku and Salena to our class.

This was going to be rough.

Salena's P.O.V (AGE: 14)

"Alright I need you kids to fill out these pages," Teacher said, holding some papers.

The whole class groaned out loud while I perked up. They were probably our school choice papers. Sure they would be a pain to do but they were important for me.

"Just kidding! You all want to become heroes anyway!"

I rolled my eyes and looked over at Victoria. She was smiling and nodding along with Terra. They were both going to try and get into a mechanical school and then maybe U.A. the Hero School. I looked down at my glass hair clip.

My step-mother, Juno Katike, was a famous fashion designer who wanted me to go into a school for modeling or designing. She always controlled where I went for school. I was lucky enough to have a techy friend who made this school's website look prestigious.

"Ha," a voice chuckled from the back, "All you extra's can frickin' try! I'll be the only one from this stupid school to get into U.A."

"Oh yeah," Teacher said, "Midoriya, didn't you also put down U.A."

I gulped and glanced behind me. Izu was trying to hide from the fury of Bakugou. Everyone in the class burst out laughing while Victoria and I looked to each other for help. The bell rang and soon Bakugou exploded Izuku against the wall. I flinched and tried to make my way to him.

Victoria joined my side and pushed her hip to one side. I tried to be brave but I couldn't even look at Bakugou.

"You freaking Deku! You really think that you can get into U.A. You're quirkless and useless."

I stepped forward out of anger, "You can stop now Bakugou."

He whipped to look at me. Suddenly, I was filled with fear but Victoria grabbed my hand to support me. I walked past him and helped Izuku up then glared up at Bakugou.

"Honestly, what happened to you? We were all going to be successful heroes and then everything changed with you."

He growled, "I grew up that's what changed. You extras just wanted to hold me back so you guys could grow stronger Than ME!"

I flinched at his raised voice and tried to stop shaking. He stepped back a little at my reaction, but snapped out of it quickly. He grabbed Izuku's notebook, put it between his hands, and activated his quirk. The notebook exploded and before he threw it out the window.

I jumped for it but almost ended up falling out the window. Victoria was able to grab me and pull me back in. Bakugou was gone and so were his lackies. I ran to the entrance, quickly changed my shoes, and ran out to where the book had landed, followed by Victoria and Izuku. Terra got out of class late.

I really hope that his notes weren't too destroyed.

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE: 14)

I sighed and leaned against my hand again. Middle school was so boring sometimes. I glanced over at Alexa, who was sitting on the opposite side of the classroom. She signed something in our secret language about being bored and I almost snickered. We had come up with this code the first year without her parents.

She was the one who convinced me to become a hero instead of an animator. Which sounds like a way cooler job to be honest. Sure the fame is awesome and the pay can be pretty good but honestly I agreed to try the entrance exam into U.A. with Alexa to make sure she didn't kill herself by accident.

The bell rang soon after. I picked up my fat bag and walked over to her desk. She was still trying to design what she wanted her hero costume to be.

"You do realize we might not even be able to get in right?"

She shook her head in disbelief, "We both have pretty dang powerful quirks, Rosa, I think we'll be fine. Plus there are different ways to become a hero, like through the government and there are different schools that offer hero courses."

I rolled my eyes, "Of course you would know that. Come on, we don't have cleaning duty today. Let's go."

She chuckled and lifted her handbag over her shoulder, "Alright. Are you coming over today? Mel is making mochi."

"Heck yeah! Your aunt's mochi is the best!"

She giggled out loud and led me out of the school. We made our way out and towards another middle school. An explosion caught our attention through the window.

"What the-" Alexa shouted before someone leaned out the same window. The girl who leaned out, tried to catch an object but was pulled back in quickly by another girl. Alexa ran towards the spot where the object had fallen. It was a forgotten koi pond thingy. I followed behind her and saw her pick out a soggy notebook.

"Oh my gosh," the girl from before cried, "Thanks for retrieving that! It's my friend's hero book."

"Augh, don't tell them that," A boy with green curly hair yelled, out of breath.

The girl looked back at him, "Huh, why not Izu? Your notes are cool."

"Some people might not share your sentiment, Salena," A new girl said with a laugh.

"Oh come one Vic!"

"I told you not to call me that," she said, though it seems like she gave up telling Salena that.

"Aw, you love that nickname," Salena teased.

I cleared my throat to get their attention, "Well it's nice to meet you guys. My name is Lacie Rosa, and this is-"

"Hi I'm Karine Alexa," Alexa pushed past me and towards the guy, "Did you really write all these notes!"

The guy covered his head with his arms and stuttered out a quick, "Yeah."

Alexa exploded with happiness, "Wow really! They're so in depth and explanatory! I read the one on Erasure Head! Do you think he could really lengthen his power by switching his eyes everyone once in a while!?"

"Well yeah in theory," the guy answered, "I mean I guess it could slow down the activation or how strong it would occur or something like that."

Soon they were both mumbling about heroes and how they could use them.

"So you have a mumbler too," the one with disconnect limbs asked.

I nodded, "This is why I don't talk to her about it half the time. Anyway, I didn't get your guys' names."

"Oh right," she said, "I'm Azby Victoria and he's Midoriya Izuku."

"And I'm Katike Salena," the raven haired girl said.

"There you guys are!"

I turned around to see another girl running towards us. "I went to the room and your stuff was there but you guys weren't. I figured something had happened with Bakugou so I brought your stuff with me."

"Oh thanks, Terra," Katike smiled, collecting her's and the guy's bags. Azby took hers. The Terra girl had a tail sprouting from a hole in her skirt and two ears that stuck like 8 cm above her head. Her hair was a gradient from blonde to pink. She was also towering over everyone but Azby and me.

I looked around at everyone. Azby was covered in scars and had some strange limbs. They were disconnected at the elbows and knees and just kind of floated around. They looked shinier so I figured that it was her quirk or something. She was a couple of centimeters shorter than Terra and had teal eyes that clashed perfectly with her yellow, blonde, shoulder length hair.

Katike had her hair up in a bun so I couldn't tell how long it was but it seemed to shine brightly. She had a couple of long bangs that framed her face and almost covered her right eye. Her right eye was a grayish color but her left was an almost royal lilac color. She was the shortest of the group but Midoriya was a close second.

Midoriya had curly dark forest green hair that went in almost all directions. And while Terra and Victoria looked fit, he was almost scrawny. His eyes were a brighter green and he had some freckles dotting each cheek. His shoes were bright red while the rest of his uniform was black.

"Hey," the wolf girl said, "I'm Neptune Terra. Please excuse my interruption."

"Nah it's fine."

Alexa finally jerked from the muttering frenzy she and Midoriya had created, "Oh my gosh! Ahh I'm sorry about the wait Rosa!"

I glanced at her then looked away teasingly. She groaned, "Well sorry that our meeting was cut short but I promised that Rosa could get some of my aunt's mochi. We should probably get going before she gets ticked."

I chuckled, "Yeah we've got to go. My parents need me to babysit Mark so that they and the idiot can go shopping for his hero support course necessities. See ya guys later, I guess."

"Oh yeah," Salena smiled brightly, "Have a good day! Hope we see you again!"

I waved and pulled Alexa away from the group. She waved to them and followed me out the courtyard. We talked about what had just happened and whether we would want to meet them again.

We both agreed that yes, yes we would.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE: 16)

I picked up the apple and examined the ripeness. It looked good and had no bruises so I handed the attendee some money and made my way back home.

I took a couple of different routes so that if anyone was following me, they would get lost quickly. I came out of an alleyway and continued on my way home. I was looking around for the street sign something ran into me.

I looked down and saw a head of dark red hair. I stepped back out of surprise. A girl was rubbing her forehead where she had run into me.

"I'm so sorry," she shouted. I jumped at her explosion of forgiveness. I bowed as well, also trying to apologize.

"I'm sorry as well," I said standing up straighter, "I should have been more aware and warned you."

"No, no, no, no, I'm sorry," the girl said waving her hands back and forth, "I should've been paying attention to where I even was and who was in front of me."

"Oh my gosh," another girl, with blue and white hair, ran around the corner, "Are you okay, Alexa? You need to stop running into people."

"It was an accident," the greenette said, "I was worried you'd kill me since we didn't get to my house quick enough."

"That's a stupid reason for me to kill you. I would kill you if you had eaten my mochi."

"Uh well," I hesitated, "I've got to go now. Ah, nice to meet you…"

"Karine, Karine Alexa and this is Lacie Rosa."

"Well I'm Mitidaki Tarran," I stepped away awkwardly, "See you later...maybe."

"Yup bye," Alexa waved and kept walking straight while I crossed the street.

I looked back quickly and sighed out a breath of relief. I'm so glad that Lacie Rosa didn't recognize me.

That would have made for an awkward situation.

Terra's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

We waved goodbye to Karine and Lacie until Salena snapped out of it.

"Izuku, are you okay," she said, placing a hand on his shoulder.

He nodded and chuckled, "Yeah, He didn't do anything he hasn't done before so I'm used to it."

She shook her head, "You're so brave Izu."

"Well we should probably head home before your mom notices how long you're taking, Lena."

Salena verbally and physically sighed outwardly, "Right. I have a stinkin' photo shoot today. Alright we'll see you later Izu!"

He waved us goodbye then went the opposite direction home. Lena, Ria, and I headed to our messed up houses. We were a sorta messed up family life kind of group.

Victoria lost her parents, I didn't know my mom and lived with a mentally abusive father, Salena lost her mother and got stuck with an annoying step-mom and uncaring dad, and Izuku lost his father.

Yep this was our small little group of friends. I'd met them all about two-three years ago in grade 5. My dad finally got a job and moved us closer to a school so he could get me off his shoulders for half the day.

"Alright I'm going to head off," I said, motioning towards the dirt road.

Salena and Victoria said bye and continued on. They knew about my home life so they were always worried about how they couldn't help much since he'd stopped physically abusing me like four years ago. Ever since I've gotten my quirk, he's been a lot calmer most of the time.

I knocked carefully on the front door before entering.

"Dad I'm home," I said. I couldn't yell in case he was drunk or in a bad mood.

"Welcome back brat," Dad's voice came from in the kitchen. He was reading the newspaper in his uniform.

"Are you heading out?"

He nodded and folded the newspaper. I looked into the fridge and grabbed a small apple. I walked into my closet room and sat down on my small mattress. I finished the apple and got out my homework.

About an hour later, the door slammed closed and I deemed it safe to take a shower. When I got out it was around six since I made it home around four o'clock. I pulled a polka dotted tank top and some lilac shorts for bed.

I leaned against the wall on my bed and pulled out the old photo of my family. It had torn over the years and was discolored but it was the same as all those years ago when I found it.

Mom doubled over laughing, brother yelling for help, Dad watching it all fold out, and me still trying to catch the petals. Mom had blonde hair and green eyes. Dad's orange brown hair had been cut short and shaved in the back. Perci, my brother, had orange hair while I had gotten Mom's blonde hair.

I sighed and was about to put the picture away when the door was slammed open and my father rushed past my room before he did a double take. I froze when he saw the picture. He physically changed and suddenly his hand was around my neck and pushing me up against the wall.

He grabbed the picture and tore it in half. I tried to stop him but he activated his quirk, pushed my shoulder which burned through my shirt and scarred my skin. I screamed out and cowered in the corner while he burned the photo.

He glared down at me while I tried to nurse my burn. I looked down at it and discovered that he had dragged his hand down to my elbow, leaving the skin red and bloody. I was shaking so much that I couldn't even focus on him. He tried to reach for me but I guess I must've flinched and surprised him because he backed away.

He left and immediately I fell to the floor and tried to pick up the ashes. I picked them up and placed them into a plastic bag. This was the one thing that had kept me sane the entire time I was living with him and now that it was gone, so was I.

I grabbed my school bag and a backpack then proceeded to throw clothing, necessities, and really whatever I couldn't bear to part with. I made sure I had all of my school books and journals. I shoved a stuffed yellow rabbit in last minute, and ran out with three pairs of shoes before he could stop me.

I quickly put my shoes on and ran out the door. I heard him call after me once or twice before he gave up and went back inside. I ran down the dirt road to the paved streets and kept running until I had no idea where I was.

I sat down on a park bench and set my stuff beside me. I broke down and cried into my hands. It was about an hour before I finally calmed down and stood up again. I looked around and started walking in the direction of Victoria's house. Maybe she could house me for the night.

I looked up at the street sign and looked to both sides before crossing the street, then two bright lights and the screeching sound of tires exploded through my senses. I stared at the oncoming car and was suddenly pushed out of the way.

I ended up standing and in shock.

"Sorry about your school bag," a voice startled me from my thoughts.

I looked up and saw a man in a black hoodie with a mask on. He looked familiar. Then it struck me. He was the vigilante that everyone at school had been talking about lately. They were calling him 'Shadow Beast' because he'd attack and save with the same fierceness as a wild cat.

"Oh," I looked down at the small bag and picked it up, "It's fine. It just had some school textbooks and supplies."

I looked inside and took a quick look at what was in there. The only thing that was really affected was a textbook about Asian history that had a folded corner.

"It looks like nothing was affected," I said looking up at the guy again, "Thanks for saving me from that car."

"No problem," He chuckled, jumping down from the roof, "It's what I do."

"What's your name?"

He looked back at me surprised, "Oh uh, people call me 'Shadow Beast' but my name is actually Tarran."

"Well it's nice to meet you. I'm Neptune Terra. Maybe I'll see you around sometime."

He nodded, "Yeah maybe. Be safe and have a good night, Miss Neptune."

I waved and walked away with my bags. I followed the street signs until I arrived at a familiar house. I sighed and walked up to the door before knocking on the door. I breathed deeply and waited for someone to answer.

"Coming," Someone yelled before they opened the door, "Oh young Terra, what are you doing here?"

I looked up at Mr. Toshinori, "Can I stay here for a couple of days...Please."

He looked down at me and moved aside, "Of course you can. Stay as long as you want."

I hugged him and started to cry, "T-thank you sir."

He hugged me back quickly, "Of course."

~Time Skip~ (a week)

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE: 14)

I looked up at the middle school. It was way bigger than my last one. I had a courtyard and a gate and everything. I adjusted my backpack straps and took a step in through the front door. I didn't yet have a shoe locker so I just slipped my shoes off in the visitors' basket and made my way to the front office.

I knocked carefully and heard someone say 'Come in.' I opened the door and stuck my head in.

"U-um hello," I asked, "Principal. Hi, uh, My name is Jordan sir. I'm the new student."

The principal looked up from the newspaper he was reading and leaned over to the P.A., "Katike Salena and Azby Victoria please come to the office."

He stood up and walked over to me then opened the door for me. I came in and sat in the chair he motioned for.

"So Miss Black," he perked up, "What made you want to come to our humble school?"

"Ah well," I said nervously, "My dad found a better job near here and thought it would be the best idea to find a better middle school for my education."

He nodded, "We take great pride in our school and our teachers. Please let us know if you have any questions or ask your guides."

"My guides?"

On que the door opened to show two kind looking girls. One had disconnected limbs and teal eyes while the other looked normal with one gray eye and the other purple. They walked in and looked between me and the principal.

"You called us sir," the girl with the two different eyes asked.

"Yes," the principal sighed, "Could you two take Miss Black on a tour of our lovely school?"

"Yeah, of course," the girl with the disconnects said happily.

"Alright I trust you know what you need to show her?"

They both nodded. The principal waved us out and returned to his newspaper. I looked at the two girls. The girl with disconnected limbs was a bit taller than me while the other was shorter than me.

"My name is Katike Salena," the shorter one said, turning to face me while walking backwards, "She's Azby Victoria. You can just call Salena, since you'll be in our class."

Azby nodded in agreement, "Same here. Azby is a…sore name for me but, I'm proud of it."

"Ah, my name is Jordan Black. Black being my last name. It's always a bit awkward to introduce myself as Black Jordan."

They chuckled and continued with the tour until Victoria had to use the bathroom. We stopped and waited for Victoria.

"So what's your quirk," I asked hesitantly.

Salena looked over at me, "Oh I can manipulate glass and stuff like that."

"Can you control sand too?"

She nodded, "Sort of. I know I can move it around but, I'm not too sure about how well I can shape it."

"Makes sense."

"What's your quirk?"

I gulped and looked away, "I don't think you want to know."

She sighed, "Does it have to do with the bandana around your eyes?"

I nodded and subconsciously touched it, "I have a villainous quirk. At least that's what my mom used to say."

"I doubt it. No quirk is really villainous if you use it correctly. I know some people with really messed up quirks that are awesome heros."

"Like who?"

She thought for a moment, "Well if used the wrong way, Midnight's quirk could probably kill someone, same with Thirteen. They could suck somebody up and poof they're gone."

I shivered, "True, but I think mine is worse."

Suddenly, Salena pulled off my bandana. I was so shocked that I could only force my eyes close. I tried to find my bandana but it was still in Salena's hand.

"Salena," I stuttered, "Please give me back my bandana."

"Look at me first," she said from my right.

I shook my head, "No!"

"Why is that? Does your quirk activate if you only look at any part of the person or if you look them in the eyes?"

"I just have to look at their eyes. They don't necessarily have to look at mine. Now can you please give me back my bandana."

"So if I'm correct," Salena thought, "You can look at me and I won't be affected." I nodded. "Then look at me."

I slowly opened my eyes and looked down at her shoulders. She was fine and then she came up under me and looked me in the eye. I shook. I made contact and now she was going to be writhing on the ground.

But she just winced and looked down at her hand. I closed my eyes and aimed my gaze to the ceiling.

I felt a hand on my hand then my bandana that I promptly tied back on.

"So if you make contact then you cause pain?"

I nodded and looked down at her through the bandana, "Why would you do that and why weren't you affected?!"

She pointed to her gray eye, "It's made of glass. I'm not really sure when it happened but it's been glass for a while. I suspect that it turned glass when I got my quirk."

"So you didn't feel anything?"

"Oh. No, I felt a couple of sharp pricks on my hand but other than that I was fine."

Just then Victoria came out, "Sorry that took so long. Yagi called me about something."

"Oh it's fine," Salena perked up, "I was just talking with Jordan. She has an awesome quirk!"

Victoria looked at me, "Sorry if she did anything. Sometimes she doesn't know what 'personal bubble' means."

"Hey! I didn't do anything!"

"Yeah it was nothing," I waved her off.

Victoria pursed her lips, "Okay but if she's annoying you, let me know. I can set her straight for you."

"No it's fine," I said.

Just then the bell rang and Salena called, "Let's get to class, friends!"

Salena ran off while Victoria just rolled her eyes and ran with her. I smiled and laughed along while we ran to our class together.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE: 14)

I looked around the classroom for the other girls. I had been sick for the past week so I was excited to finally see them again. I was about to enter when someone glomped onto me. I stumbled forward before catching myself.

I looked around and saw Rosa and Alexa. I turned and hugged them back, "I missed you guys too!"

"I thought you were dead," Rosa said jokingly, stepping away.

"You guys saw me on Saturday," I chuckled.

"Yeah but that was for giving you homework, that's not an actual hangout session," Rosa rolled her eyes.

We all walked to the back corner where Christine was already sitting, she must've snuck in while we were hugging. I sat down beside her and fist bumped. We talked for a little while until the teacher started class.

"Alright now I need these High school entrance papers before school on Wednesday. That gives you two day to turn it into me. Think about which schools you can really succeed in."

I took the papers and passed them around our table. I looked around at the girls and noticed that all of them were super focused. I just shrugged and put U.A. as my first choice then a drawing centered highschool as my second.

I went up to our teacher and turned in the paper so that I wouldn't forget later. Then I returned to the table and eyed everyone else's papers. They had all put down U.A. for their first school but they were all still trying to come up with a second choice so I just laid down my head and tried to sleep for the rest of the time.

This next school year was going to be very interesting.

~It's Starting…..~

Salena's P.O.V (AGE 14)

"SALENA!"

I jolted up at the scream. Then I realized that it was only Juno calling me for breakfast. I got out of bed and changed into a jean jacket, maroon shirt, and black leggings. I quickly made my way to the kitchen and sat down at the table with Juno and my father.

I stared at my bacon and eggs before glancing up at father. He was reading the newspaper as he always was. I glanced at Juno and saw that she was going through the daily mail. I sighed quietly and started to eat my food.

I was almost finished when Juno gasped. I looked up and saw that she was standing now with a letter in her hand. I looked from her to dad, who seemed unfazed. He just glanced at me, which I found weird, then continued to read the newspaper.

Juno came over to me and handed me the letter, "Do you want to explain to me why you just received a letter from that dreaded U.A. highschool?"

I looked up at her in surprise, "I honestly don't know. You saw my highschool entrance paper. It was even written in ink and I couldn't have gotten another copy."

She fumed then slapped it onto the table in front of me, "Open it. We'll see why you got a letter in the first place."

"O-okay," I said, picking up the letter and glancing at dad again. I looked again when I noticed he was actually watching me. "Um, okay, it says 'Dear Ms. Katike. We have gotten a letter of great importance from a person, who chose to be anonymous, that explained about how you wanted to get into U.A. but couldn't for personal reasons."

"In the letter, the person recommended you for our recommendation exam. Said person believed that you could benefit from the private written exam but the public physical exam. We hope you will come to see if you are really as strong as our tipper said you are. Principal Nezu…' Who would have recommended me for the private entrance exam?"

Juno was fuming visually and stole the letter from me, "Who indeed?!"

"Well I can't refuse the principal of U.A. Juno. I'm going," I turned swiftly to head to my room.

"What?! No you aren't! That hero world is horrible and dangerous. It's what took you mother."

I whipped around and advanced on Juno, "Disease took my mother, you witch! If you had even cared to listen to me when I was crying over it alone in my room, you would have known that! It was all over the GOSH DARN NEWS! You try to stop me from following my dream, you get an unwilling model and a runaway daughter."

Before she could even say anything I left the room and walked away. I entered my room and leaned against the door. That was the first time I had actually stood up to Juno. Sure, I had had spats and arguments but they always weighed in her favor.

I exchanged my leggings for shorts and my shirt with a seafoam tank top. I made my way to the front door and tied on my black tennis shoes. Then I ran and ran all the way to the beach. I noticed someone and immediately recognized the mop of green hair.

"IZU," I yelled running down the stairs. I looked around and noticed that he was surrounded by trash bags.

"H-hey Lena," he stuttered, "Didn't expect that you would be out here."

"Yeah well," I kicked at the sand, "I was trying to clear my head and think through some decisions that I've been given."

"Oh. Anything I can help with."

I shook my head, "No, not really. They're kind of those problems that you have to solve yourself. What are you doing down here anyway?"

"O-oh I thought if I was going to become a hero I would probably have to do something to get stronger. Someone I really look up to said I should try to do something good while I'm getting fit, so here I am."

"Ah, makes sense. well good luck! I'm going to keep on my run. I'm trying to stay fit too. Summer can really make you fall downhill."

"Too true. Well see ya later! Hopefully we can set apart sometime to hang out with everyone!?"

"That'd be a great idea, Izu. I'll text around and see when everyone's free!"

We talked for a little longer before we kept going with our training. I shook at the thought of surprising everyone when I showed up at the physical exam but then remembered that I probably wouldn't be able to keep it in.

I jumped with excitement and yelled out all my happiness.

Izuku's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I stretched out again. I was nearly finished with summer and today U.A.'s entrance exams would be starting. I thought back to all of my friends who had also been training for the exams. Alexa, Rosa, Mame, and Christine; we had all met halfway through the year and became good friends within a few short weeks.

Then there was Terra, Salena, and Victoria who had been my friends for more than a couple of years. They were trying their hardest to get into U.A. ever since all of them were able to pass the written exams to get in. Since Salena and I usually ran into each other while training, I was the first to know that she had been recommended for the physical entrance exam.

When I found out, I nearly told everyone immediately but she was dedicated to getting to the end of the summer before she told everybody. I agreed that it would be a fun challenge for both of us.

I looked out at the ocean before moving the last piece of furniture and yelling out my exhaustion. I looked up to the sky and shed a couple of tears happily. I heard someone call me down and saw that it was All Might in his deflated form.

I was surprised when I realized that Mr. Toshinori, Victoria's adoptive guardian, was actually All Might. I thought about that day on the roof.

~Flash Back~

All Might had just barely set me down on the rooftop and I was trying to catch my breath again. All Might was steaming on the other side of the roof.

I looked back at him to see him mumbling about time, "U-um All Might, s-sir?"

Just then an explosion of steam warped around him. I coughed and shielded my face. When it cleared I looked at where All Might had been standing.

"Mr. Toshinori!?"

"Yes it's me, young Midoriya..," He coughed out, "I never wanted anyone to see me like this."

~Flash Back Over~ (You know what happens. I just didn't know how to change it.)

I suddenly leaned to the side and fell from the cement walkway. I felt someone catch me and looked up to see it was All Might.

"All Might...I did it," I sighed.

He smiled proudly, "Yeah, you surprised me, you entertainer! Teenagers are amazing! You did good. You really did!"

"You did all this for me…I'm too blessed…"

He laughed and patted me on the back, "We'll have to fix those leaky eyes of yours. Now, it's time for the award ceremony, Izuku Midoriya!" He pulled out a piece of his hair, "This is something I was once told: "Something that you receive because you're lucky and something that you are given because you are recognized are different in essence."

I clenched my fists and realized that I took the reality that would be surprising even in comics. I was filled with determination and looked up at All Might, proud of myself.

"Eat this," he said, holding out the piece of hair.

"Huh!?"

"Well you need a piece of DNA to transfer the quirk and I figured that spit was worse."

I nodded, "Y-yeah okay…"

"Quickly before you're late for the exams!"

I tried to choke it down but immediately started gagging. All Might handed me some water. I gulped it down and shook my head. I felt a little strange but dusted it off as working too hard.

Quickly, I ran to put my old middle school uniform on and ran to U.A. Luckily I was able to catch up with Salena, Victoria, Terra, and Alexa, we'd be meeting everyone else at the exam.

Victoria, Terra, and Alexa thought that Salena was only there to support them still, so we were both snickering the entire way. When we finally arrived and Salena followed us into the arena, everyone was confused.

"I was recommended by someone," Salena said posing.

"What!?"

She giggled and stuck her tongue out before running into the waiting arena. All the girls followed her in while I just kind of watched. How were they going to react to my new quirk? I shrugged and started to walk then suddenly tripped on my own feet.

I didn't even try to catch myself since I was so tired from training, but suddenly I was caught. I looked around in panic before a girl with a brunette a-cut hairstyle tapped her fingers together.

"You should be more careful," she laughed.

"Ah yeah," I said dusting off my knees, "Thanks."

"Well I should get going," She waved at me then ran into the arena. I watched her leave, honestly just confused, then followed her and tried to find everyone else.

This was going to be hard.

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

"Rosa!"

I looked up from my phone and looked around for whoever called me. It took me a while before I saw the rest of our groups pushing through the crowd to meet Christine, Mame, and me.

I waved to them and pushed the rest of the way to them, "Took you guys long enough."

"Well Salena had a surprise for us," Terra commented.

They parted to show that Salena was standing behind them. "Since Juno wouldn't let me come, somebody recommended me for the private writing exam and the public physical."

I high-fived her, "Congrats! Told you that no good Juno couldn't keep you from your dream!"

"You were right. I guess mom was watching over me."

Mame smiled and hugged Salena, "Congrats friend!"

Salena ruffled Mame's already fluffy hair, "Thanks! By the way, have you guys run into Izu? We all got separated at some point."

Christine looked up from her phone and pointed to someone, "Isn't that him there?"

Salena turned around and bolted towards him before pouncing on the unsuspecting greenette. He caught her, luckily. She hugged him around the neck and spoke some silly crap about how she was 'Oh so worried about her smol little brother.' I rolled my eyes and chuckled.

He dropped her and stepped over her. Victoria and Terra walked over to poke her and make sure that she was still alive. I watched them poke her before Izuku started talking with us.

We all talked for a quick minute after Salena got up. Then someone announced for everyone to move to the set up locker rooms to dress in their exercise clothing. I followed the rest of the girls to the separate rooms. Someone tapped on my shoulder and I turned around hesitantly.

It was the same brunette from a couple of weeks ago that Alexa had run into. I perked up from recognizing him.

He rubbed his neck nervously, "Uh h-hi. Sorry you and the redhead were the only ones I recognized here and I don't know where I'm supposed to go."

"Oh," I snapped my fingers, "Right! The boys' changing rooms are over there. You get changed into some movable clothes then head over to the actual arena. If you want, we could all meet here before then head over together?"

He nodded, "Thank you. That'd be an easier way to go around. I'll meet you guys here."

"Alright see you later dude," I ran to catch up to the rest of the girls then entered the curtain beside Terra's. I quickly took off my old uniform, which was purple and sand colored, and slipped on my pink hoodie. It also had some pastel pink cuffs. I was also wearing some blue jean shorts. I tied on my red sneakers and looked into a small mirror.

I tried to tie my hair into a ponytail but it was so small that most of the hair fell out. So I gave up and pulled all of my hair into a bandana, I was sure to bring with me. I put my old uniform in my backpack and stepped out of the changing curtain.

The next girl stepped in and I waited for everyone else. Eventually they all did and we went to meet up with the guy, who I forgot to ask his name.

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15) (By the way I know it's out of order!)

I slid out of the changing room and realized that everyone was already out. I dramatically sighed and bent over shamefully. I hooked my arm around Izu, catching him off guard and almost falling over.

I looked around and spied everyone's outfits. I was wearing a gray and seafoam green training shortcut tank top and cargo pants that ended at my knees. I had my hair up in a tight ponytail and some black tennis shoes.

Terra was wearing a shoulderless royal fuchsia and pastel pink jumpsuit. She was wearing some tight fitting flats. Her hair was tied in the loose ponytail she usually wore. She also had some fingerless gray gloves and were pulling them on tighter.

Alexa was wearing a black tank top that had a small explosion drawn on with yellow words saying "Baby You're a Heckin' Firework." She had put her hair up in a ponytail and was wearing a headband to block her wispies. She was wearing some orange tennis shoes.

Victoria was wearing an open shoulder, short sleeved pink shirt and gray yoga shorts with fuschia stripes on the side. She somehow got her short hair into a ponytail that stayed in and was stretching out her torso since it was how she controlled her main movements. She had put on some grayish tennis shoes.

Mame was wearing a dark jean belly t-shirt over a turquoise tank top. She was also wearing some purple shorts with a star pattern all over. She was wearing kind of clunky tennis shoes that were lilac purple. Her short reddish-brown hair was pulled back by some purple lilies clips.

Jordan, who was tying her green camo bandana on, had a simple university shirt. When I looked close it seemed like an American university but then I noticed it just said "Something University." Other than that she had her hair braided and was wearing some simple gym shorts with black tennis shoes.

We were waiting around for someone who Rosa had promised to help around the arena, so we were all just talking and messing around. Izu joined us shortly before the mystery guy showed up.

Izu was wearing a jumpsuit that his mom had made for him after seeing his costume designs. It was kind of a light green and had a matching bunny-looking hood. I teased him about it a little but stopped when Rosa waved to someone in the crowd. We all turned to see who it was and it turns out that it was who we were waiting for.

He was super tall, even taller than Terra with her ears up, which is like 180cm. He had ocean blue eyes and brunette hair that kind of shone blonde. He had pale/tan skin color and was well built.

He was wearing a simple blue tee and green camo cargo pants. His shoes looked extremely worn down and seemed to be duct-taped together. I looked at him again and noticed the slight bags under his eyes. I'm guessing home wasn't too easy on him either.

"Hi," he shyly waved to us all, "My name is Tarran Mitidaki or, wait, don't the Japanese introduce last name first."

We all nodded and he fixed his introduction, "Mitidaki Tarran then. I'm from America originally but I've been able to pick up Japanese over the years."

Jordan high-fived him and spoke in english, "Sup dude. My dad is from America so I know a little of words."

Mame perked up too, "Oh same here! My brother and his friend have been teaching me since they came back!"

Tarran smiled, clearly happy that someone else knew his native tongue. We all were introduced and soon headed to the arena for briefing. All the way Alexa and Izuku were mumbling about what kind of things they would be doing for the exam, clearly they hadn't really read the memo.

Rosa rolled her eyes and handed it to them quickly. They made an "OoooOh" noise and started to share strategies with anyone who needed it, like Jordan. I was busy talking with Rosa, Terra, Victoria, and Tarran while Mame translated as best she could with some words he said. Tarran could speak very good Japanese but some english words he didn't know in Japanese.

We all took our seats in the auditorium about five minutes before the announcements started.

Then suddenly a scream rang throughout the auditorium, "ARE YOU ALL READY TO START THIS EXAM!"

Some people shouted excitedly, including our group, but mostly everyone was just clapping quietly.

He explained some of the rules while all of us were trying to understand what Izu and Alexa were muttering about, purely because we had read the emails and brochure beforehand. Izu was mid-sentence when someone stood up and asked about the robot number.

Victoria, Terra, Mame, and I all looked up as he continued then we realized he was looking at us.

"And please will you all be quiet. You are disrupting the audience."

Victoria and Terra almost stood up to give him a piece of their minds but we all kept them down in their seats. Mame, me, Christine, Rosa, and Tarran were all stuck chuckling about what had just happened.

Then we were given the time to stretch out again and ready ourselves to get into the actual arena.

"ALRIGHT, LET'S GET THIS STARTED!"

We all just kind of stood there. The group, the auditorium kid, the girl who Izu said saved him from falling, and some sparkly dude near us. We were about to ask what was going on when the speaker squealed.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! HERO'S DON'T GET A COUNTDOWN GET MOVING!"

The rest of the students started running and I took that as a sign to get going. I noticed Izu was a bit late but I could only wait for so long. Soon he got going and we all split up throughout the buildings. I spun around and looked around at the windows.

The way my quirk works is that I have to see any kind of glass to manipulate it. I swirled and stabbed some shards into some robots' necks. I noticed how many people were around me so I started to make my way to the back alleys. This was going to be tough on some of my friends!

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I groaned at the sight in front of me. There were tons of students around me with about a bajillion robot corpses around me. I ran around until I had attacked about thirteen, or something, 3 pointers with some other scrap metal.

I was so grateful that I had taken those pointers for Izuku. I looked around for anyone I could recognize while running around. I hit a couple of 1 pointers and ran into Tarran, who seemed to be doing well enough.

I stuck around him for the majority of the time and tried to keep any small robots away from his back. Then a humongous crash blew a gust of wind towards us. We both froze and heard someone yell, "It's the zero pointer!"

We started running before we ran into Terra and Rosa who said they saw Izuku running towards the zero pointer. I face palmed and followed the other towards the zero.

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I focused mostly on animating things to fight for me but I was able to take some down with my minor quirk, Catty Claws. This just made my finger nails grow faster and longer. My main quirk allowed me to animate objects so they could do things for me.

I jumped over a robot and dodged just as Terra, in her furry form, crashed into a robot behind me. I thanked her with a thumbs up and helped her. I tried to keep up with her while she was destroying robots. I beat up a fair amount of stragglers though.

We were both mid jump when a gust of wind blew us back. Terra landed safely and caught me awkwardly before setting me down carefully. We heard some screams about how the Zero Pointer was released. We were about to run before Izuku zoomed past us.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

"Taurus," I yelled, "I need you TarTar!"

He emerged from the piece of glass that Salena lent me. We had met sometime ago and while she was able to destroy them from the inside, I had to destroy them from the outside. Taurus used his humongous Labrys (double-headed axe) to spin a circle of destruction around him.

Salena threw up a sort of glass shield around my right and stopped a robot and someone else from running into me.

"Thanks Lena!"

She saluted goofily and saw that she had blocked Victoria from hitting me. Victoria was trying to get out of her daze when the robot exploded from the other side. I looked around and realized that Alexa was also with her.

They explained that some people were saying there were more robots on this side and stuck together when they got here. Apparently, they were together basically the entire time. (Yes I am being lazy. It's 1:30 am, give me a break)

I was blown back by some wind and caught by Taurus, who had gone invisible as soon as Victoria and Alexa showed up, shyly. I got down and noticed that everyone else had been able to hold his legs as a foundation. At least he was nice enough to show those.

Someone yelled our names and we saw that it was, in fact, Rosa with Terra. They told us that Izuku was doing something stupid so we immediately ran with them.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE 17)

I sighed at the thought of even more running. The girls around me were all trying to understand what was going on with Izuku. I looked forward and noticed that someone was running towards the Zero Pointer other than us.

"Is that him," I yelled over the comotion.

Alexa followed to where I was pointing, "Holy Crap! That is Izuku!"

Salena and Alexa picked up speed while the rest of us were trying to catch up.

"Izu," Salena screamed, "What are you doing?!"

He glanced back to us before what looked like he was ready to jump. Salena and Alexa got there in time and did something I totally did not expect. They both kneeled down and offered to give him a boost.

He nodded and I was about to stop them when Victoria pointed to the bottom of the Zero Pointer. I followed her gaze and saw that a girl was stuck under some rubble.

"We'll just get in the way," Victoria said, clenching her fists. She was clearly annoyed that she wasn't able to notice earlier so I suggested that we look for others who might be stuck in the rubble, too. We were able to find two other people who were too scared to move.

Then a big explosion made us all crouch behind the walls. The dust took a while to clear before we saw what had happened.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I bolted forward with Salena. We got past Izuku and knelt on the ground. Salena shouted some concern that anyone who is a "Mom Friend" would say.

Salena and I linked our fingers together. Izuku ran faster towards us and stepped onto our hands. We threw Izuku into the air, but somehow a burst of power had come from him, broke her left wrist, and my right shoulder. I was okayish since my quirk had already burned my arms.

Salena seemed to feel it a lot more but tried to hold back a look of pain. We watched as Izuku flew above our heads, towards the Zero Pointer. I pulled Salena back from the robot and ran away from it.

An explosion blew us both forward. I was flung forward into some kind of shadow thingy. I followed it to the source and saw that it was Tarran and Terra, who was pushin against it to prevent it from running through a wall.

Salena spun through the air and was caught by someone with blonde hair, though when the wind died down they seemed to back away out of fear. Victoria and Mame ran towards Salena while Jordan tried to set my arm with her first aid kit thing.

Terra was able to run towards the rubble and get the girl out. She immediately ran to a boulder thing and made it...Float?

I looked up and noticed that she was aiming for Izuku. Right as he was about to hit the ground she slapped him and activated her quirk again. He floated for a little before she gave up and fell down with him.

Then she threw up and I leaned back so Jordan could work on me. Soon enough the teachers and medic showed up. Salena, me, Izuku, and the girl were taken to the infirmary. Salena and I were ordered to chill while the healer's quirk sapped our energy.

I fell asleep first while the news was playing on about some Something fashion company. I don't know when Salena drifted off but I know that she was asleep when I woke up again. Whoo!

That was a very extreme exam.

Christine's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I ran to the medic ward and tried to meet up with everyone after. I was able to find Terra, Victoria, Mame, Tarran, and Rosa there but everyone else was in the medical wing. I sighed happily. That meant everyone was able to find each other meanwhile I was stuck trying to live with Mame's friend

3rd P.O.V. (I'm recapping everything because I feel like I can explain better) !only one king!

The students took off, leaving a couple of stragglers behind. Some immediately attacked but some kept running through the crowd.

Buildings were destroyed all over, some even leaning over. It looked like a war scene at the bottom. Some students were flying and attacking from the sky. Robots all over were falling and being destroyed. Two explosion quirks met up at one point but they split up as soon as they realized that it would become too disastrous.

Sliding along the ground is a girl with raven hair and a glass quirk. She is with another girl who is petite with a huge storage of power. Her reddish-brown hair floats as she summons up a pair of twins.

They both jump to protect their summoner and try as hard as they can to protect each other too. The female twin is hit away and the robot is destroyed by her brother. They disappear and the petite girl cries to her ally for a shard of glass.

She holds it up and waits for it to shine orange before shouting for the great bull. He comes to the ground and spins his labrys to hit as many robots as he can.

On the opposite side of our map is another group of two. This one is composed of a tall pair. One with wolf-like ears and tail and the other using objects to attack the robots. The one in a pink hoodie, commands her objects to attack any leftover robots as they both run through the city.

The wolf gets a little bigger and attacks on the front lines. She tears the metal as though it was fabric and jumps with the fierceness of a timber wolf with her pack. She grows a mane of fur and looks like an actual werewolf.

They work together and run through the city only stopping once before an explosion catches them off guard. A spikey blonde is attacking robots near them and being too reckless, so they run away.

Jump a couple of streets away and see another special pairing. A young man with shadows swirling around him and a girl, donning a bandana, fighting with leftover robot parts. She throws a scrap of metal towards him and shouts to warn him.

He dodges and sees that it was meant for something behind him. She apologizes and attacks another one. He lifts his hands and crashes down a wav of shadows. The girl ducks and spins under it to avoid being swept up too. He destroys about ten of the robots and let's the girl attack the stragglers.

She does so gracefully and finishes off the rest. An explosion sends them flying but quickly the guy wraps them both in a blanket of shadow. They are set down and follow their friends towards the big robot.

On the other side, near the first two girls, an explosion is blown higher than the buildings. Here two other girls are attacking with all their strength. One is throwing her arms to robots and ripping out their command chips as if she knew they would stop.

The other is lighting her fists in fire and quickly hitting robots in the back of their necks where wires are stopping their movement. Another big explosion rings out and sends the girls tumbling a few feet.

The explosive girl apologizes and beckons for the blonde to follow her. She does so and soon they are both beating robots as far as they can. The blonde takes the lead and runs into a glass wall put up by the raven.

She shakes off a headache and continues fighting. They were all about to move one when a big wave of dust blew their way. The petite girl is caught by Taurus while the other girls were able to hold onto his legs.

The wolf and animator call to their allies and run towards another friend who was running towards the danger. They all join with the rest of the group and try to catch up with the greenette. The raven and explosioner run ahead of the others and get ahead of the greenette. They kneel and boost him up. He flies through the air and focuses his aim.

He throws his punch forward and hits the giant robot on the head. He falls down and a wave of air from the falling giant blows away everyone. The wolf helps a girl who was trapped in the rubble while everyone tends to the two boosters' arms.

The raven was blown away so the blonde and reddish-brunette ran to her with a Satyr creature running behind them. The girl who was trapped in the rubble climbs onto a boulder chunk and slaps the greenette as soon as he gets close enough.

They both float before she has to let them both down. With that ending, the exam is done and everyone gets medical treatment.

The raven, explosioner, greenette, and rescued girl are taken to the medical wing quickly to set their bones and see if they have any worse injuries.

Let's see who made it and who didn't, shall we?

~Starting soon...Stay Patient~

Terra's P.O.V. (AGE 15)(for now)

I stretched as I stepped out the front door. I'd been living with the Toshinori's house for around two weeks now. I'd been doing chores around the house so that I could repay them when I move.

I made my way to the mailbox, opening the door slowly so nothing fell out. I looked inside, noticing two packages that were thicker than the other letters I grabbed everything and went back inside.

Victoria and Allyson were sitting in the kitchen, eating breakfast with Mr. Toshinori, who just finished making coffee for himself. I handed him the mail and sat down next to Allyson. I ruffled her hair then picked up my toast and ate in comfortable silence.

Mr. Toshinori stood up out of nowhere and stared at the thick packages. He handed them both to Victoria and I. I looked at her confused as she gasped then read my package. It was from U.A. about whether we got in or not.

"You open yours first," I offered to Victoria.

"You sure," she asked.

I nodded and she ripped open the package. A small disk thing fell out along with an official paper. The disk activated and suddenly All Might filled the small projection.

He talked about how we were actually graded and said that Victoria had gotten 55 Villain Points and 10 Rescue points from helping the two people in the rubble left-overs. He congratulated her and pointed to the paper for further instructions.

Victoria stared at and shook her head violently, "Your turn Terra! I'm going to wait for you before I open this."

I thanked her and opened my letter. Allyson grabbed my tail excitedly as it started to wag, but I didn't care much. All Might filled the projection again and told me about how I tore through a ton of robots. I ended up with 58 Villain points and 5 rescue points from helping the girl out of the rubble.

I clutched the small necklace with the remains of my picture and smiled, wagging my tail even more. Victoria whipped me around to look at her and we hugged happily crying. Allyson clapped and Mr. Toshinori hugged us all together. We had both made it into class 1-A and would be starting our classes in less then two weeks. I was ecstatic.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE 17)

I hesitantly opened the door of my building. There on the front step stood the hero from a couple of years ago, who let me go. I stepped back and got ready for him to trap me in his scarf but he just nudged the door open and tossed some papers onto the coffee table.

I wasn't exactly uncomfortable around him since we had been on multiple undercover missions together when we could, but he was intimidating.

I stared after him and closed the door confused. He walked into the makeshift kitchen and made some coffee before gesturing to the stack of papers. The first pages were some sort of legal documentation. Taking a closer look, they seemed to be some sort of adoption papers.

I bolted up and turned to face him. He just stared me in the eyes and nodded. My eyes widened.

"You need a legal guardian in order to get in (Something that could be true, I'm not sure so don't quote me on that). I volunteered since you did so well in the exam. Open the other package."

I tenderly picked it up and opened the top. Something fell out and just as I was going to pick it up, a bright light exploded into my eyes. I stumbled back and realized that it had been a protection of some sort.

All Might, the Number One Hero, appeared and smiled down at me. He talked about the Rescue points and the Villain points. He mentioned that I seemed to already have a trusty team and to stick with them.

I had gotten 61 Villain points and 10 Rescue points from helping Azby with the other people in the rubbled alleys. It closed down and Mr. Erasure patted my head jokingly. I smiled up at him, now super excited about the years to come.

He signed the papers and pointed to where I would sign. I did so. He told me that I could move in with him or stay in my building. He gave me some time to think it through and suggested I tell him on the first day of school.

I took my uniform from him and made sure that everything fit correctly. He left and promised an interesting year to come.

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

"Jordan!"

I bolted up surprised and threw open my door. I quickly closed my eyes when I realized it was my step-mother, Amy. She chuckled and put a bandana into my hands. I gratefully accepted it and wrapped it around my head.

My dad was okay with my quirk since we had been doing a sort of exposure thing since that dreaded night. I could look him in the eyes for like twenty minutes now. However, Amy had been trying to handle it but I knew I scared her too much.

I could look her in the eyes briefly but I'd rather be safer than sorry. I opened my eyes and looked through the fabric.

She handed me a small package, "It's from U.A. honeybee!"

I gasped and accepted the package quickly looking through it. I pulled a small disk shaped projector and ran to the living room with Amy so Dad could see the message too. He jumped when we both plopped onto the couch and stared at the projection.

All Might showed up and we all cheered. Even though my childhood hadn't been a happy one, I'd been having the best teens I could've asked for.

All Might told me about the secret point system and mentioned how all the teachers were amazed with my ability to come up with ways to fight without my quirk. I chuckled at that, and told my parents about how it was Izuku's idea.

I ended up with 58 Villain points and 18 Rescue points since I had been able to set Alexa's arm before it got worse. I jumped up from the couch as the projection ended. Dad and Amy jumped up with me and crushed me in a giant hug.

We all jumped up and down before Amy and Dad kissed happily. I fake gagged and laughed with them while they read through the legal papers. I quickly tried to call Salena's phone but to no avail, it went to voicemail.

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I sat on our fancy white couch, staring at the small package from U.A.

"Well hurry up and open it," Juno sighed, clearly annoyed.

"What afraid you'll lose your model," I spat back, "I want to wait for Papa!"

"Your father will be working late tonight. He won't be back until at least 1 tonight."

"Oh… I don't know what I expected," I folded my fingers together.

Juno scoffed and turned away from me. I'm sure she was only so rude because I returned the favor but I didn't really care. I could only think about how my father wouldn't know if I got in or not until I left for school.

I took the small package to my room and looked through my contacts list. I wasn't really in the mood to call any of my friends so I called the only other person I could think of with close to my same situation.

"Hello," a sweet voice rang through the phone, "Who is this?"

I chuckled, "Look at your phone contacts, Momo."

"SALENA!? Is that you?"

"Yep it's me! How are you doing Momo? Have you gotten your U.A. letter yet?"

"Yeah I did but I haven't opened it. I'm trying to wait for my father and mother to come home and open it with me."

"Oh well do you want to see if I got in or not?"

"Yes Please! Is your father working late again?"

I nodded before remembering she couldn't see me, "Yeah. Juno said it would be awhile before he got back."

"Ah well," She hummed, "Why don't you facetime me and we'll watch together!"

I turned on FaceTime and waved to her before switching the camera view. Then I opened the package and set the projector on a small coffee table in my room. All Might filled the ceiling before I quickly fixed the settings.

He appeared again, this time like an actual screen and told us about the extra points. I stared at it in awe as he explained that I had been able to get 48 Villain points and 14 Rescue points, for assisting Izu in the rescue of the girl.

It turned off and I squealed with Momo. We talked for a few more minutes before she had to leave. I waved bye to her and laid on my bed, content. Another call had come in but I was too lazy to get off my bed to get it. I'll call them back.

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I crouched on the floor in front of the couch. I was holding little Mark while Mom, Dad, and Haru were sitting on the couch. Dad started the projection and soon All Might showed up. Mark babbled happily and reached for the screen.

All Might talked about how the point system worked and welcomed me to U.A.'s hero course. My Villain points were 54 while Rescue points were 8 from animating a lamp to stop it from falling on someone in the beginning.

Haru flicked me in the head and congratulated me before heading back to his room to continue his comic assignment. Dad and Mom hugged me and Mark before going to make dinner. I snuggled Mark until he giggled and stood up to tell my friends.

Alexa hadn't answered yet but, Salena, Victoria, Terra, and Jordan had gotten in so far. I texted with them until Alexa came online.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I stared at my mochi while Aunt Melody looked through the mail. She was flipping through quickly when she suddenly did a double take and stared at a small white package. Then she glanced up at me and pushed it towards me.

I put my mochi to the side and recognized U.A.'s stamp. I flipped it around and examined all of the corners. Aunt Melody clasped her hands together nervously and stared at the package in my hands.

"C-could you open it," I asked, shaking, "I don't think I can stop my hands from trembling."

She chuckled and held her hand out. I gave her the letter and watched as she found a letter opener. It slid along the edge gracefully. She extracted a smaller paper and a silver disk. I set the disk up and looked at Aunt Melody before pressing the play button.

We were both dumbfounded when All Might himself showed up on the screen. He shouted that I had made it in and explained how the point system had worked. I stared at the projection. Aunt Melody clasped my hand excitedly.

I looked up at her and smiled wide, while tears streamed down my cheeks, "I did it…oh my gosh I made it in."

Aunt Melody broke and wrapped me in a huge hug. I hugged her back and thought about my parents. They would've been proud of me and I could feel that through Aunt Melody.

She cupped my cheek and stared into my evergreen eyes. I laughed and jumped up and down with her. Aunt Melody instantly insisted we go tell my parents. I nodded and ran to grab my blueish jacket.

We raced each other to the family graveyard before we both calmed down and made our ways through the aisles. Finally we reached their graves. My dad had insisted mom be buried next to him so there they were. Right next to each other forever.

We were about to set our flowers down when I realized that we weren't alone. Uncle Yami was standing behind us panting harshly. Melody pulled me a little to the side of her and ticked her head to the side.

"Why are you so tired Yami," She questioned, careful to not sound condescending.

"I-I saw you two r-running here and I w-wanted to talk to you guys. J-just give me a s-second to catch my breath," he gasped.

We all just kind of watched each other until Uncle Yami could breath normally. He straightened up and dusted off his suit. I watched as he adjusted his tie and stuck his hair back in place.

Honestly I was sure that he only cared about his appearance because he was a top 20 hero in Japan. If we didn't have such a huge family reputation, I was sure he would be in a tank top and gym shorts playing some sort of American game.

"I heard that U.A.'s entrance exam was a few days ago," he said shyly, "I was wondering if you were going to be able to keep that promise to your parents?"

I nodded and looked at the ground remembering the funerals, "We got the letter today. I'll be going to U.A. starting this fall." (I know that Japanese schooling is different than American but I'm too lazy to do research)

Aunt Melody physically relaxed, "I thought you were only here to tell me some crap Dad said."

Uncle Yami chuckled a little forcefully, "Yeah I know what you think about him but I still have to defend him. He is our father after all."

Melody stood up straighter so she was as tall as Yami, "He was no father of mine nor John."

Yami sighed and rubbed his neck anxiously, "Yes I know I've heard it all before and I'm sure you have too, so I'll just be on my way. Congratulations on getting into U.A., Alexa."

I nodded, "Thanks Uncle Yami. Have a good day sir."

He winced at the formality but waved and walked through the graveyard to his car. Melody kind of shook her head before setting her hand on my back, supportively. I looked up at her and smiled as big as I could.

We both shared the news with Mama and Dad before joking around and talking about what had been going on in our lives. When the light started to bleed from the sky, we returned back home.

I laid down on my bed and chuckled as I read the messages between my friends. Everyone who had gotten in were Salena, Rosa, Victoria, Izuku, Terra, and Jordan. I counted who was left and that left Christine and Mame.

An hour later Christine screamed in the texts that she had gotten in too. Now all we need is Mame's response.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I couldn't hold in my excitement as Coden and Rodney got home. I watched the lights of Rodney's new car pull into the driveway and ran outside. I rammed straight into Coden, knocking us both over.

"Whoa," Coden yelled, "What the heck Mey!?"

"IT'S HERE CODEN!"

"What's here!?"

I rolled off the wheelchair, "My letter from U.A. Coden!"

He let that sink in before quickly trying to get up from the ground; ending up with him on his side and struggling. Rodney rolled his eyes and lifted Coden up.

Rodney, Coden, and Rainer had been able to go on their trips a year after returning home and settling a bit. Rainer went back to N.A.S.A. in the U.S. to become one of the first astronauts to Mercury ('cause I believe that by now we can go to the planets somewhat safely).

Rodney had chosen to stay in Japan with us as "Coden's Caretaker," but I think he just liked Coden. Rodney, due to having to help Coden up the stairs and in awkward situations, was incredibly fit and tall.

Rodney kept his maroon hair somewhat groomed while Coden left it completely fluffy. Coden had mostly upper body strength and looked good for a guy in a wheelchair.

Coden thanked Rodney then looked at me, "RACE YOU!"

I stood there stunned before, "HEY! NOT FAIR! CODEN!"

He wheeled in right before me and stuck his tongue out at me, "HA! I win!"

I shook my head, "You only won because I didn't use Uni's speed!"

We laughed until Rodney came in with the groceries, "It would've been nice if you helped me but whatever."

"Oh Mame," my mom asked from the kitchen, "Is Coden home? Mame, can we open the letter now? Please honey!"

I chuckled, "Okay, okay we can open it now."

She jumped and ran to grab the letter, "I can't believe that you might get into U.A. I know you'll get in but I can't hold in my excitement!"

Rodney set down the groceries before we all made our way into the living room. I sat down next to mom and Rodney sat opposite us with Coden. Mom gave me the package and pushed me to open it. I chuckled and ripped the top off.

The number one hero All Might shouted and scared us all. We all laughed out of our minds before All Might continued. He explained how I had gotten in with the help of Taurus and how he could tell I had a ton of potential for Heroism.

My points were 48 Hero points and 12 Rescue points. I squealed at home high I scored before hugging mom and Coden. I jumped up and down before running to my room, grabbing my phone, and calling everyone on Discord.

They all answered, luckily, and asked how I did. We all told what our points were and geeked out over how school was going to be and about everything that could happen in U.A.

~One Week Before School!?~

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE 17)

I sat up from my mattress and looked around. My small bell based alarm system had just been tripped by something. I rolled my eyes. It was probably just an animal but I left to make sure that it was an animal and not some sort of villain.

I slowly got up and climbed down the walls to the first floor. I froze immediately when I saw that it was an explorer. They hadn't been coming since someone posted a video that theorized a quirk user was "haunting" the building.

I sighed and hid any sign of my living there in a blanket of shadow. Slowly, I made my way to the closest wall and crouched to hide a little better.

"Hello," their voice echoed throughout my building, bouncing off the walls and entering my ears. They kept this up until they thought no one would answer them. I hid from their flashlight beam and watched them sweep throughout the floor before going up the ladder to the second floor.

I followed them up carefully and watched as they started to talk to a camera. I watched carefully and realized that it was a guy with some sort of arm mutation quirk.

"Alright guys," he said, "This floor is rumored to be the most haunted place in this warehouse. Some people also think that this place is only haunted because of an illegal quirk user. Maybe it's his ghost or it could just be some homeless man trying to protect this awesome structure."

I smirked. The thought of me being an unshaved homeless man was the most ridiculous theory I had heard in my years of living here. I lifted a can and threw it across the room.

The guy flinched and whipped around to look where the can landed. Now that I've got him scared, he'll believe anything that happens. I made a shadow creep up behind him and tried to solidify it. It slipped into his shadow a bit but tapped him on the shoulder.

He flinched towards the shoulder I touched and scrambled back from the spot he was sitting before.

"Oh my gosh! Guys something just touched my shoulder. Oh that's creepy. Man this place is really creeping me out! I'm going to go up to the third floor and then get the *beep* out." (Author: NO SWEARING ON MY MINECRAFT SERVER!)

I chuckled silently and followed him to the destroyed stairway for the third floor. He quickly found my ladder and climbed up carefully. I climbed up the walls and found him rummaging through some things.

I panicked a little when I realized it was the backpack my mother had left for me when I was abandoned. I threw another can to distract him but as soon as he calmed down he kept rummaging through the bag.

Slowly, I got angrier and more anxious he would find something. I called shadows from around the room and shoved him back from the backpack. He thrashed around and hit the wall with a sickening thud.

He grabbed his head and screamed when he realized there was some blood coming from it. I winced and used the shadows to put him on the second floor. Then I yelled, so my voice would echo, to get out as quickly as he could.

He ran to the ladder and looked back at me. I stood my ground and watched him clamber down the ladder. He turned on his camera and yelled about how a quirk user had just tried to kill him. I froze when he mentioned the cops and immediately rushed to pack my things.

If the authorities got me, not only would I be sent into the foster system, I would probably get sent to jail. I shoved any books or clothes I could find into a large scuba bag. I also arranged any of my personal belongings into the bag.

I gathered all the things from my past into the one backpack. I rubbed my thumb over a picture my mother left me. It was my father, her, and me back in America.

I sighed and folded the picture into my pocket before hefting the two bags onto my shoulder. Slowly, I looked around my building and shed some tears. This had been my shelter for nearly twelve years and where all my memories were made.

Shaking my head, I backed out the back door and ran through the forested meadow to avoid the vlogger. I was able to avoid civilization up until the edge of a meadowy park. I hopped onto one of the apartment buildings before crouching down and thinking of what to do now.

I could spend the night on the roof but chances of someone finding and reporting me were high. I could keep moving all night without a break, but if the cops noticed they would probably guess that it was me at the building. Then I remembered someone had offered me a place to stay should I ever need it.

I ran to a certain building and waited for the hero I needed to come and meet me as usual. I sat on the edge looking out at the city scape until a soft thud landed behind me. I turned to look at my future teacher and smiled.

"Hey," I chuckled, "I might need to take you up on your offer, Mr. Earaserhead."

Third Person P.O.V.

The group slowly gathered together near the mall. Ranging to all heights and quirk strength, the group got along with each other better than some Hero partnerships. From shortest to tallest, Mame Delphinus has reddish-brunette hair and deep blue eyes. She was wearing a pink sundress with soft purple lillie clips and white flats.

Next, a raven haired dork with heterochromatic eyes and a special glass clip. Salena was wearing a simple white jacket, maroon tank top, and jean shorts that matched her strange gray sandals.

The red head, Alexa, was waving to the others joining the gathering group. She was wearing a simple orange skirt and black blouse. Her hair was done up in a pony tail and she was wearing gray sneakers.

A tan girl waved back sarcastically. Rosa's white and blue hair was pulled back by a bow. She wore a pink sweat-shirt, jean shorts over black leggings, and sparkly flats. She also carried a small black handbag.

The girl standing next to the raven and trying to save another friend wore a small bandana over her eyes. Jordan had her grayish hair held up in a half pig-tails and half down hairstyle. She wore a soft green scarf and white tank top accompanied by black tight jeans.

Terra was chuckling at Jordan's attempts to get Salena off the blonde. Her blonde to bright pink hair was pulled into a high ponytail with a simple pink crop top and navy blue overalls. She was wearing ankle high boots and had wolf ears and a tail protruding from her head and back.

Hooked around the neck by the raven, was the blonde Jordan had been trying to save. Victoria's arms and legs were unattached and scattered with scars. She was wearing a simple gray cat hoodie with jean short-shorts and pink sneakers.

The newcomer to the group, Tarran, stared at the group. He was wearing simple black cargo pants and a comfy black long-sleeved shirt. His somewhat long hair hung almost in his eyes and his shoes were beat up to no return.

"You'll get used to them," a voice perked up, startling Tarran from the mall's entrance.

Izuku Midoriya had known some of these girls for years and others his entire life. He was wearing his usual "Flannel" kanji T-shirt and some camo cargo pants. His trademark red tennis shoes stood out against the rest of his outfit.

"R-right," Tarran hesitated.

"I promise," Izuku chuckled, "They're all stronger than they look. I'm willing to bet you have your fair share of scars, too. You'd be impressed with some stuff we know about each other."

With that Izuku motioned for Tarran to follow him to the group's meeting place. When they were in line of sight, Salena glomped Izuku.

"Sup my brother from another mother," She yelled excitedly.

Tarran jumped in surprise as she poked and teased Izuku playfully. "Sorry. I don't really remember your name."

"Oh I'm Mitidaki Tarran," Tarran said, shaking her out-stretched hand firmly.

"I'm Katike Salena in case you also forgot. I'm glad Rosa remembered to get your contacts before we finished the exam!"

"Yeah same," Tarran nodded, following the two friends to the rest of the group.

"Hey Tarran," Mame excitedly chirped in english, "I've been practicing my english so that I could understand some of your words better."

Tarran high-fived the smol bean, who nearly reached his chest, "Epic! Can't wait for the others to pick up on our totally secret conversations."

"Alright guys," Victoria said sarcastically , "We should start looking for our school supplies before it gets dark."

"Oh right," Terra added, "I need to get some pencils, a pencil box, and some other essentials."

Salena took out a list, "I need a calculator, compass pencil thingy, protractor, a ruler, and what the heck is up with this list!?"

"Isn't that one of those lists you get that tells you what ALL sorts of high schools want," Jordan chuckled, taking the list from Salena.

"Yup! Juno always gives me enough money to get everything on the lists," Salena rolled her eyes, "I already have half of these items so I can just use that rest of the money to buy something else. She won't mind or care."

Victoria patted Salena on the shoulder, "Well I'm the same as Terra. I only need some simple things."

Mame and Rosa needed some extra things but other than that everyone needed the same things in different quantities. They all walked to the supply store and messed around while buying the things.

By the end of the day, everyone was smiling and laughing at something Izuku had said when suddenly a loud shout was heard across the entrance.

"DEKU!"

Tarran jumped out of his skin, Mame squeaked in surprise, Alexa growled silently, Terra stepped in front with Victoria, while Jordan and Rosa stayed beside Izuku and Salena. Izuku started stuttering while Salena froze up and stared at the sandy blonde.

"What do you want, Bakugou." Victoria crossed her arms in a hostile motion."

"I want to know why such a useless nobody is surrounded by happy people," the teen spat back.

"He's not useless and we're his friends you brat!"

He scoffed, "A deku can't have friends! Die!"

Tarran watched the exchange confused. He walked to Rosa's side, "What's going on? Who's that *Beep*?"

"That's Bakugou Katsuki. He's an old idiot from the school we all met on."

"Oh? What happened between you guys?"

Rosa glanced back hesitantly at Tarran, "Not necessarily what he did to "us" but rather what he did to Izuku, Salena, and Victoria in their Grade and Middle school years. Their story to tell but let's say they all dealt with it in different ways."

"Ah okay," Tarran tsked before walking up beside Terra and Victoria.

"Who's the new guy?! Another extra you're using to fight for you, Flower," Bakugou sneered.

"No," Salena whispered to him, trying to hold back tears successfully, "I don't use anybody! They can always-"

Victoria snapped, "We aren't going to leave you alone Salena!"

Salena folded her fingers together and tried to calm her breathing. Jordan rubbed her back carefully while Terra tried to calm Victoria. Izuku was muttering about the past and was trying to find a way out of the store without being chased.

Then an angel came into the store.

"KATSUKI!"

The sandy blonde woman yelled at her son, "YOU'D BETTER NOT BE ANNOYING ANYONE!"

She looked between the group and the angry bomb and slapped her forehead. Quickly, she walked up to Bakugou and smacked him on the head, "I told you to leave those kids alone!"

She bowed to the group and apologized to them. Just like that, Salena's mood whipped around and she smiled at Mitsuki Bakugou.

"We were just saying "Hi" to an old friend Miss Bakugou. Nothing you need to apologize for. Bakugou only has an aggressive way of speaking."

Victoria and Terra scoffed and nodded along with Salena. Izuku was still muttering but walked along with the group as they left the store.

Victoria put her arm around Salena while Salena kept up the false smile. She kept insisting she was fine while everyone started splitting up to go home. Tarran, Victoria, Salena, Terra, and Mame went one way while Alexa, Jordan, Rosa, and Izuku went the other.

Soon everyone had gotten home safely and were left with the nervousness of school starting within a few days.

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I waved Victoria, Terra, and Tarran good-bye, careful to keep up my smile until I closed the door. Immediately the smile fell and I held back the tears. My heart yearned yet again for what Bakugou and I used to have.

I quickly squashed the fluttering feeling down. I really didn't need Juno to notice my teary eyes and ask who had caused my concealer to fade. I was walking across our expansive living room when Juno walked in through the kitchen door.

"Oh," She exclaimed, "Salena you're finally home? What happened to your concealer?"

I winced and turned to fully face Juno, "Oh nothing, I just ran through some sprinklers on the way home. That's all, Juno."

"Mhm," Juno hummed, "Deary, you aren't even wet. I'm not stupid. What happened!"

I looked down at my feet, "Something just came up at the mall. I tried on a perfume but got some in my eyes so I had to wash it out."

Obviously a lie. But it got past Juno, "Deary, you know that you are supposed to spray it on your wrist or on one of those cheap papers to smell it. Be careful next time."

"I will Juno," I offered a small smile before turning and walking up the clear glass stairs. She watched me from the middle of the room until I rounded the corner.

I walked down the hallway, passing multiple rooms until I reached mine at the end of the hall. When mom passed away and Father had married Juno we moved in with her so that 'We wouldn't be sad our entire lives'. Sometimes father said things that made me want to lose it.

I opened and closed my door quickly, in case anyone tried to talk to me. I leaned against the door and slid down, carefully avoiding the door knob. I breathed out slowly and brought my knees to my chest, defensively.

I thought back to what Bakugou did to me and rubbed the back of my neck subconsciously. No one really knows what he did to me, they only know that it was something that makes me freeze up whenever I hear him or he comes close to me and I'd like to keep it that way.

I took a shower and changed into my pajamas before falling onto my bed. I checked my phone and noted a new contact. I clicked on it and read it.

T: Hey! It's Tarran

S: Oh. Hi! How in the heck did you get my number?

T: Victoria gave it to me today after...what happened…

T: How are you by the way?

S: I'm doing okay. Thanks for checking on me though!

S: How are you?

T:I'm doing fine. I moved into a new place this week so I'm still adjusting to the ungodly amount of cats here. Lol

S: Ooooo! That's so cool! Juno won't let me have a pet

T: Who Juno?

S: Oh. She's just my step-mom…

T: Ah.

S: I've got to go before she realizes I'm still on my phone… G'night Tarran.

T: Night. See you at school?

S: Ye! See you there.

I put down my phone and snuggled into my warm covers. I'd definitely need to answer Victoria tomorrow but right now it was 1:30 am. I glanced at my ceiling and wished my mom goodnight before finally closing my eyes and falling asleep.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I unlocked the door and walked through sighing. I was worried about Salena, of course, but lately I'd been having strange dreams about a woman with a sort of a balance and stiff features. She always showed up in time of need in my dreams. Maybe something bad was going to happen at the school.

I shook my head and walked into the kitchen. My mama greeted me and told me the time for dinner. I only nodded and went on in my thoughts. I took a shower and came out for dinner a couple of minutes later.

It was just mama and I for tonight's dinner since Coden and Rodney were going out with Rainer, who came to visit. I stabbed a piece of vegetable and bit halfway through. Mama coughed and set down her silverware.

"So what's on your mind," she asked leaning back in her chair.

"Nothing," I mumbled.

"Come on Mame. I'm your mother. I know when you're stuck in your head. Also whenever you come home from an outing, you always talk to me about it afterwards."

I sighed, "Mama what's your quirk again?"

"It's a healing quirk. Why do you ask?"

"It's just that I've been having a hard time sleeping lately. I've been having the same dream again and again. I was just curious if there was a way that your quirk could help me sleep."

She thought for a moment before responding, "I'm not sure. It mostly targets surface wounds. I'm not entirely sure if I could help your mental state. How abouts we do a sort of therapy session instead."

"Um...Okay," I replied.

"So first what is your dream about?"

"It always starts out with smoke. The smoke is so thick you can barely see through it. I'm searching for someone or a group of people, I'm not sure. I see them running around me but can't pin their faces."

"The smoke gets thicker and thicker until I can't nearly breathe. Then suddenly a bright light burst from nowhere and I see one of two figures. Either a strong man or a slender and poised woman. The man lifts his fist in triumph while the woman turns away from me and claims I'm not ready for something."

"For what," mama interrupted.

"I'm not too sure. Her voice never makes it to me. I see her lips moving but then I don't hear any sound and I wake up. I usually can't get a very good sleep afterwards."

Mama thought for a moment before snapping, "Maybe ask your Zodiacs. I mean you haven't found some of them yet correct?"

I nodded, "Yeah Cancer, Aqaurius, Capricorn, Scorpio, and Libra have yet to show themselves. At least, that's what I think they could have always been with me in my childhood, that's what Aries and Leo did."

Mama nodded, "Well I'd recommend asking them and then looking for more clues in the dreams. Write everything down, honey. It will help you with certain details. Now, can you help with the dishes?"

I snickered and nodded. We talked more about dreams and how some people control them. I left to talk to the zodiacs but Mama came in and insisted on me getting to bed immediately. I laid down closest to the wall so Mama could lay next to me. She sat beside me and patted her leg.

I laid my head on her lap and shivered as she combed through my hair. It'd been so long since we'd done this that I'd nearly forgotten about all the nights we would spend talking about stars and Coden's mission.

I settled into my position and felt my eyelids droop. I let them fall and fell asleep soon after, Mama still combing my hair until she fell asleep alongside me.

~Ready For a Bruising?~

Victoria P.O.V. (AGE 15)

Insolent alarm clock with thy hollow beeping, I shall end you for Her Highness hath demanded it. I slammed my palm on my phone and waited for the alarm to end. BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP- there it is.

I willed my eyes to open and turned my head to look at my watch. 6: 30 am…...dang it! I groaned and sat up in my bed, scaring Terra awake. I apologized and got up to use the bathroom. I washed my hands and flopped onto Terra's sleeping form.

She had insisted on sleeping on the floor so I was always tripping over her. I poked her face and was rolled off when she sat up.

"What," she growled.

"You gotta get up," I whistled, "It's our first day of school today."

Terra stared at me before bolting up and into the bathroom. Slowly, I stood up and chose my uniform before squishing into the closet. I stared out at the wall while slowly sliding the door closed.

After that it was a challenge of trying to not disconnect and pinch the uniform between my forearm and bicep. I heard Terra come in and waited for her to open the closet to make a noise.

"Hey," she yelled, "Victoria where'd you go- WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING IN THE CLOSET!"

I snickered, "I was getting dressed. I'm going to put my socks on before I go eat breakfast and then you can get dressed in private."

"Thanks….I'll be done in a minute?"

"Okay see ya."

I opened the door and closed it behind me before heading to the kitchen. Allyson was sitting at the counter and Toshinori was making eggs.

"Good morning, Ria," Ally exclaimed excitedly, "Can you believe I'm going to middle school today!"

"That's right! I totally forgot you were twelve. I thought I still lived with an eight year old with the way you eat," I teased.

I'd totally forgotten that there was a small group of schools near U.A. It consisted of a kindergarten, grade school, and a middle school. I fist pumped her and ate my eggs while she rambled about how she was finally able to start training her quirk.

I smiled as she started to pick up speed in her voice like our dad used to. She had kept her same looks from when she was younger. Every night I was grateful she hadn't been in that accident with us.

"What's this? The squirt is growing up?"

"Terra," Allyson yelled, "Come on guys! Stop teasing me!"

"Here's your breakfast Young Terra," Toshinori said, handing her the plate.

Toshinori was the tallest dude I'd ever known or met. He was even taller than Tarran and Terra. Then again he had been like seven or eight feet tall since the crash.

I stared down at my breakfast at that reminder. I sighed and noticed Toshinori looking at me curiously. Quickly, I shoveled the rest and smiled. He gave me a sad smile and took my plate to clean.

"Thanks," I chuckled, before catching a quick glimpse at my watch. It was nearly time to go, "YIKES! Terra, eat quicker, we'll be late if we miss our bus!"

She shoved a slice of toast in her mouth and ran to the room to grab our bags while I set out her shoes and started doing mine. She handed me my school bag then sat down to tie her shoes, too. Allyson walked behind us and velcroed her shoes before jumping over the gap between Terra and me.

"Come on," she whined, "We'll be late if you guys take any longer!"

I stood up and dusted off my skirt before helping Terra up. She picked up her bag and opened the door for me.

"Why thank you," I said curtsying.

"You dork," Terra rolled her eyes, "Let's get going before Ally blows her top."

I chuckled and ran after Allyson to the bus stop. We got there and waited for the bus while teasing each other. Allyson showed us a new metal trick she'd learned and made Terra a small metal rose hair clip.

Terra and I waved Ally good-bye and continued on to U.A. We arrived and both stared at the school's size. It was humongous! It had a large garden around the front yard and some woods surrounding it. I scanned the grounds and noticed how many kids there were. Despite the small amount of teens getting in the hero program, there were a lot more than I expected.

"Over there," Terra yelled.

I looked to where she was pointing and noticed a shadow behind me right before I was attacked by Rosa. I caught us, luckily but then someone walked up to us. It was the kid who had told Alexa and Izuku to quiet.

"Running is not allowed in the front grounds," he said, waving his arm up and down, "Someone could get hurt if you jump on people's backs like that."

Rosa just stared at him before sticking her tongue out at him. He blinked in surprise and gave her a confused look.

"Sorry 'bout her, hun," I said, putting out my hip and placing my hand on it, "Good luck getting her to stop. She does this anytime she can sneak up on any of us. Heck, if you don't watch your back, she could even get you."

I pat his shoulder and smirked at him, "You're cool. Maybe I'll see you in class."

I sauntered past him with Terra beside me and Rosa still sticking her tongue out at him as we passed him. A small blush stuck on his cheek making me snicker. Terra shook her head, saying that I shouldn't tease him like that.

"Eh," I shrugged, "It's not like it couldn't have happened if he didn't interfere."

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I sighed. I had come way too early as opposed to coming too late. Nearly no one was here, aside from the teachers, and I was super bored! I leaned against the wall/window where I was perched and looked out the window again.

It looked like someone was running across the courtyard. As quickly as he had stepped on the grounds immediately Ida popped out of nowhere and scared the poor kid. I chuckled and watched Ida give the kid a lecture.

I didn't know Ida but we'd met in the classroom, where I dumped my stuff, in the morning. Somehow he had been earlier than I was. I looked back into the hallway and noticed someone I recognized.

"Momo?"

She turned back to face me and squealed with delight. I squealed back and jumped off the wall perch to hug her. We hugged and started speaking rapidly about how much we'd missed each other.

A girl behind spoke up, "Yaoyorozu, I thought you wanted to get to the classroom early?"

"Oh," Momo gasped, "That's right! Lena, this is Jirou. I think you guys have something in common."

"Nice to meet you," I said, extending my hand.

Jirou extended hers too, "Same. I'm assuming you enjoy music?"

I nodded, "Yeah but I can only sing. I've tried instruments but I can never stick to them very well."

"Yeah they can be pretty hard to learn. I grew up in a musical family so it's kind of a given."

I glanced out the window and saw Alexa and Christine arriving, "Oh sorry. I've got to go meet up with some friends. Class 1-A, right?"

"Yeah. See you in class, dude."

"Bye Jirou. Bye Momo!"

With that I left to go meet up with them. Soon I was outside, speed-walking towards the now growing group. Alexa and Christine had been joined by Jordan, Mame, and Izuku.

"Hey guys," I yelled, waving to the group.

"Hey Salena," Jordan waved back. Jordan had definitely come out of shell since middle school. She would even trust me enough to take off her blindfold. Only with my normal eye closed of course, but it was still progress.

Mame and Alexa were gathered around Christine who was showing them a strange video. Jordan and I sat on the ground next to them and talked about what we would do in our new class. I thought we would be doing some stupid class introductions, like always while Jordan figured that we'd be doing something more since it Was a hero's course.

"Hey," shouted a voice across the grounds, "Running is not allowed in the front grounds!"

I glanced over to where Ida was talking to Victoria, Terra, and Rosa. Victoria put her hand on his shoulder before chuckling and walking past the tall guy.

"It's not like it couldn't have happened if he didn't interfere," Victoria said.

"True," I commented, "Sup guys!"

"Oh hey, you're actually on time this year," Terra snickered.

I glared playfully at her and stuck my tongue out. We talked for a few minutes before Izuku returned and Tarran finally arrived. We all talked until finally the bell rang for the students to go in.

So far so good. I hadn't seen Bakugou or his lackeys yet. Then again I hadn't even seen his lackeys during the exam. We were a bit behind Izu so when he froze I was fairly confused. Then I caught up with him and realized both Ida and Bakugou were arguing.

I have to say I mentally cursed before I was pushed in by Victoria and Tarran. They led me and Izuku to the back with everyone following and quickly passing the porcupine. I sighed and sat down in the chair next to Mame and Tarran.

Tarran was sitting behind a cute brunette with mochi cheeks while Mame sat behind a monochromatic guy with red and white hair split right down the middle, sort of like Rosa but vertical. Alexa sat behind a sweet looking guy with curly purple hair that seemed to have some strange sphere shapes mixed in.

I looked around and noticed that the only other place for Izu to sit was behind Bakugou.

I grabbed his wrist, "Are you going to be okay? We can switch if you'd like?"

He put his hand on mine, "I'll be fine Lena. Your BBF (big brother friend) is braver than you think."

"You're only 14 days older than me. Just be careful around him."

He chuckled and walked to the seat. I turned around and saw that Victoria was sitting behind me, Terra was sitting behind Mame, Jordan sat behind Alexa, and Rosa, already playing on her phone, was sitting behind Tarran.

I leaned over to Mame, "What happened to Christine? Wasn't she just behind us?"

"Oh," Mame tilted her head, "Apparently Christine got put into Class 1-B since her score was, I think, 35 and 2. (Idk)"

"Huh? But couldn't she have used her quirk to slow them down and cut their wires or something."

"She said that, since she didn't take Izuku's advice, she only focused on speeding them up and rusting them. Apparently her quirk wears her out more if she fast-forwards instead of rewinding or slowing down."

"That's kind of weird since she's one of our smartest friends."

Mame nodded and opened her mouth to say something before getting interrupted by a man in some sort of yellow sleeping bag. It sat up and talked!

"It took you 8 seconds to quiet down. That's not going to work if you want to be a Hero. Now come up and pick up these uniforms, change, and meet me outside on the fields."

"Huh? But what about orientation" ,the brunette in front of Tarran complained.

"Orientations are for people who aren't pushing themselves to their future."

I sat up straighter and stared up at him. He's scary! I glanced at Mame, seeing that she was nervous too before looking at Tarran. He just had his face in his hands, mumbling something about an awkward beginning.

The class got up, retrieved their uniforms, and left to change. Alexa pulled Rosa to the locker rooms while the rest of us talked about how awkward that was.

"That was weird," Victoria asked, pointing her thumb back at the classroom, "Right?'

Terra nodded, "Definitely not a normal way of introducing themselves."

"He was so scary," I whined.

"I agree," Mame shook her head slightly, "I totally thought I was going to explode under his stare. Spooky."

Jordan nodded, "His eyes were so cool though. They looked totally tired but wasn't he the underground hero, Erasurehead?"

Tarran nodded, "Yep that was him. He's pretty cool if you know him."

We all stared at Tarran.

"HUH!?," we all exclaimed.

"Yeah," Tarran winced, removing his hands from his ears, "I've been bunking with him for a while since my house was….Er taken away."

"Oh okay," Victoria chuckled, "Didn't know you lived with such an awesome person dude."

Tarran rolled his eyes, "Meh. He hates being on camera."

"I guess that makes sense," Alexa tapped her chin, "Most people aren't comfortable with the cameras."

"Well I've got to catch up with the guys," Tarran pointed to the group of boys ahead of us, "See ya on the fields."

We nodded and walked into the girl's changing rooms. Soon we were all done and over with dressing and awaiting our nightmares.

3rd P.O.V.

The group of students stood on the field chatting and waiting for their teacher. Soon enough Mr. Aizawa, the Class 1-A teacher, arrived and started his speech.

"Okay so you've all had assessments in your old schools but you've never been able to use your quirks. In these coming tests, I want you to use your quirks to the greatest you can. You come here."

Mr. Aizawa pointed towards the ash blonde bully and gestured for him to try.

"Whatever your biggest score was, try to break it, using your quirk to assist you."

"DIE!"

The teen shouted at the top of his lungs and used his explosion quirk to blast further. The number registered and shocked the entire class. Mr. Aizawa explained how the tests were going to work and how they were going to be graded.

"By the way, The student with the lowest score will be expelled," Aizawa said calmly.

The class exploded, "It's the first day! I mean, even if it weren't that's totally unfair!"

Aizawa sighed, "Natural disasters, highway pileups, rampaging villains...Calamity is always right around the corner. I'd say Japan is full of unfair things. Heroes are the ones who correct all that unfairness. If you were hoping to spend your evenings at McDonald's, I'm sorry to tell you that for the next three years, U.A. will run you through the wringer. That's Plus Ultra. Use your strength to overthrow it all. So bring it."

Our main characters gather together and start speculating how they could do the tests using their quirks. Salena, Jordan, Rosa, and Alexa would probably have to rely on physical strength for most of the tests or get super creative. Tarran could use his shadows, Terra was stronger than all of them physically, and Mame could use the Zodiacs' help.

The first event was the 50-meter dash. Terra and Victoria were able to get through rather quickly, Terra's time being 4.18 and Victoria's being 3.05. Rosa and Salena both could only run. Salena got 5.28 and Rosa was able to get 4.37.

Alexa and Tarran ran against each other. Alexa, using her explosions to boost her and then running to rest, got 3.02. Tarran bounced off his shadow and got a 4.01. Jordan ran the whole way and got 6.12. Mame summoned Capricorn, borrowed his speed, and reached the end by 2.56.

The second event, grip strength, was a bit difficult for most of our heroes. Salena, due to having to handle sharp glass, had a grip strength of 42 kg. Mame used Virgo's strength to get 602 kg. Alexa, having to deal with hot fire, got above Salena with 44 kg.

Tarran condensed his shadows and got 59 kg. Victoria, with her metal material, was able to get 55 kg. Terra was able to get to 105 kg since wolves are unusually strong. Rosa, because of how often she drew, got a grip strength of 54 kg. Jordan, being surprisingly strong, was able to get 73 kg.

The third event, the standing long jump was pretty helpful for everyone's scores. Terra, Victoria, and Mame were the furthest, Victoria getting 1st. Tarran and Alexa were both close to the other's score. Rosa, Jordan, and Salena were all behind the others but still pretty ahead of the class.

Side stepping kind of slowed them all down but they were still able to achieve what they wanted to do. The ball throw was hard on some but most were able to pass it.

Salena chuck the ball up in the air and used her glass hair clip to form a spear. She threw it at the ball and boosted it ahead. It got to 120 meters, luckily. Tarran, again, Bounced it off of his shadows and used the ball's shadow to carry it further. 163 meters was his final score.

Mame decided to try out Sagittarius's power since Sagi had only barely revealed herself to Mame. Sagi aimed and shot a powerful green arrow that stuck into the ball and carried it to 324 meters. Alexa tossed it in the air and punched it as hard as she could. The ball got scorched but reached 334 meters.

Victoria pulled the ball, with her arms and then reversed the magnetism in her arm. It was launched and when she neared her limit she threw the ball ending on 210 meters. Jordan had to get creative, using her bandana that was made of a special fabric, she peeked at the ball and launched it through the field. It rammed into the ground at 94 meters.

Terra was able to throw it and whack it with her tail for an extra couple of meters. She was able to reach 147 meters thanks to that extra hit. Rosa animated the ball and made it extra bouncing causing it to come to a stop at 127 meters.

As they stretched for the next event they watched the greenette, Izuku attempted to use his quirk again. Suddenly, as he reared back, their teacher's hair lifted up and Izuku's score fell to 46 meters.

Tarran shook his head again as the girls all stared in surprise. Aizawa taught Izuku a lesson using very harsh words. He gave Izuku another chance and smiled, impressed, when Izuku regulated his power and threw the ball without breaking his entire arm.

Everyone exclaimed happily when Izuku was able to get 705.3 meters. Suddenly, an explosion blew away a couple of people in the back.

"WHAT THE HELK?! EXPLAIN YOURSELF, DEKUUU!"

The group flinched at the familiar voice. They all slowly turned to see Bakugou boosting himself forward. Suddenly, a scarf was wrapped around Bakugou and restraining him. Aizawa lectured him and went on with the events.

"I almost screamed out of surprise," Salena sighed, kneeling down dramatically.

Mame sighed, "Same. Bakugou is always full of surprises, ain't he?"

Terra nodded, "Even I was scared. He has such big explosions."

The class calmed down and continued to the next events. All of them were able to do the seated toe touch with ease. Salena, Jordan, Alexa, and Mame were able to do the endurance run with a couple of slow downs. Terra, Victoria, Rosa, and Tarran were able to finish rather quickly.

Quickly, the class finished up with upper body training before Aizawa shared the scores.

"Moving along. Time for the results," He sighed, "Also I was lying about expelling someone. That was a rational deception meant to bring out the best of you all."

"WHAT!?"

"Well of course it was a lie. Didn't take much to figure that."

"Wah! Momo you knew and you didn't even hint to me," Salena whined.

"Sorry 'bout that Lena, I figured it was obvious."

Salena closed her eyes and slumped defeatedly, "Not for me."

The whole group snickered at their stupidness and listened to Aizawa as he told them their papers and curriculum was back in the classroom.

They all sighed, exhausted, and walked back to the classroom, and left to go home. Izuku had been talking to Ida and Uraraka so the group joined them and started teasing each other.

Little did they know someone was silently watching.

~Costumes!~ (I know y'all were waiting for this)

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I put my hands behind my head as I caught up to Mame and Alexa. We all lived in a somewhat awkward direction to the school since we lived behind the hill it was on top of. Mame and Alexa were talking relationships so I just butt in and commented on old boyfriends I'd had.

We met up with Salena, Tarran, Victoria, and Terra at the entrance and all walked in together to the class. I scratched my head. Christina hadn't been talking to us since the entrance exam. We always went to lunch with her but she seemed quiet all the time.

I shrugged as I walked into the english classroom and began our lesson with the famous Pro Hero Present Mic. I was a big fan of his so that class wasn't boring to me whatsoever. We finished up our normal classes, those being stuff like Math and Agriculture with Dr. Fluer.

We finally went to lunch and then to Hero Training with All Might himself. Izuku fanboyed. Victoria fangirled. Mame fangirled. Rosa acknowledged him. Basically, everyone got excited to have the Number One as a teacher.

"I AM HERE," a voice shouted, "COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"

My friends and I all jumped a bit and calmed down when we recognized All Might. Izuku started mumbling and saying stuff about All Might while that rest of the class just got excited.

"Hero Basic Training," All Might exclaimed, "The class that'll put you through all sorts of special training to mold you into heroes! No time to dally. Today's activity is this!"

He lifted a small card and showed the class. The card was white with simple red writing that said Battle boldly. Suddenly, he pulled out a remote and pressed the small button that caused the wall to rumble.

A bunch of box/suitcase types, labeled with seat numbers, came out of the wall and stopped short of my row. The class "ooed" and we turned our attention back to All Might.

"For Battle Training you'll need these. In accordance with the "Quirk Registry" and the special request forms you filled out before being admitted."

"Costumes," a kid named Sero exclaimed, causing an uproar through the class. I was excited to see how the Support Courses translated my costume.

"After you change, come out in ranking order to Ground Beta!"

We all jumped up and went to changing rooms. This was going to be AWESOME!

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I slid the cool silky white leotard over my hips and pulled it over my chest. Adjusting the small choker that held it up, I buttoned the shoulderless sleeves back on and pushed my middle finger through the designated ring to keep the fabric close to my arm. I checked to make sure all the fake glass gems were still sewn along the sleeves.

I pulled my hair back into a bun from the messy ponytail and pinned mom's hair clip back into my raven black hair. I slipped on the thigh high, high heel boots and zipped up the sides. They had some small pockets along the side for small space storage. And last I pinned the glass alloy veil into my bun.

I looked in the mirror and sighed satisfied with the product. The bodice was a snowy white and the veil was a very clear sea-green. The boots, sleeves, and chest cover are a darker shade of sky blue. I clicked the heels together and immediately got what I had specifically requested on purpose.

Two wheels popped out of the heel and the main part of the boots. I steadied myself and twirled a bit to get used to their feeling quickly. Just what I'd wanted!

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I pulled up the small turquoise skirt and tightened the buttons. Then I put on my dark teal mid-drift tank top that had fancy straps. I wrestled with the oversized shirt for a little bit before finally getting it below my chin.

I tied the fabric boots around my thighs and flattened the skirt down over top of it. I tapped my toe on the ground and looked in the designated mirror. My hair was left out since it was a bit short to put into a comfortable ponytail. I pinned a small lilac lilly to pull it back a bit though.

The fabric boots were an ombre from sea blue to black. Although the toe was white, it was also a hardened kind of metal for kicking. I smiled at my reflection and quickly put on a necklace with different colored gems to conjure the zodiacs easier. Now I was ready.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I shook out a bit of nerves as I lifted up the light weight dress over my shoulders. It fit perfectly. I tied the black bodice's strings to tighten the middle and adjusted where needs be.

The rest of the dress was orange, with small yellow stripes at the edge of the skirt. The sleeves went to my elbows and were snugly tight. I slipped on my black leggings and black socks before I put on my brown leather boots and strapped them on tightly with the orange straps.

The gloves were the same color as the boots and are fire resistant so I wouldn't burn them everytime I used my quirk. I flopped a big black scarf around my neck and pulled my hair into a messy ponytail.

I spun in the mirror and looked at the dress from all angles. It was light weight, matched my vibrant red hair and was fun to spin in. I fake punched at the mirror and chuckled at my silliness.

Victoria's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I breathed out and pulled on the shoulder less crop top. I sipped up the front of the heart shape and pulled the sleeves to the middle of my biceps.

I grabbed the stomach high shorts and pulled them up carefully, through my knees. They were a tad shorter than I thought but otherwise fit perfectly, coming to an end at the top of my thighs.

I had already put my hair into a messy bun so I just pulled up my silver knee high boots, that ended just short of where my knees cut off and pulled my gloves to where my elbow cut off. Everything fit tightly as I had requested.

Afterall, holding clothes on while trying to launch yourself across a field isn't very easy.

Terra's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I held the costume in front of me and saw that it was smaller than I had intended.

I pursed my lips and muttered, "Meh it'll look sexier now."

I unzipped the back of the lace sleeves and the bodice. It was tight enough that even without the sleeves it could have stayed on easily. I looked down and immediately looked back up, embarrassed at how well it looked on me. The bodice was a fluffy pink to the waist and then was changed to a silver color. I hooked the two magenta suspender straps criss crossing across my thighs.

I pulled on the shiny leather mid thigh boots and zipped the tops up. I fixed the lace so that my middle finger stuck through the sleeve ring to keep it from flying around. I found the mask among the mess of the black cape and put it on.

Luckily it was made of a special material that would stick fairly well to my face and keep it on unless I pressed a button on the side to release it. Quickly, I threw the black cape over my shoulder and buttoned it near my heart. I fluffed up my tail and ears then brought my blonde to hot pink hair into a loose ponytail.

I smiled with my fangs showing. I was confident and ready for battle training.

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE 17)

I sighed and looked at all the pieces of my costume. A full set of armour that I'd designed myself. I put on the chainmail to reduce damage in harsh situations and started with the chest piece. It was made of simple steel around the sides but formed a rounded arrow on my chest with damascus steel.

I strapped all the waist pieces together and started on my legs. The knee piece was pretty easy to put on. They just clipped around my legs and left breathing room for it to bend. I brushed over the symbol for Honor on my knee and smirked proudly at that detail.

The calf piece was fairly easy to hook to the knee piece and carefully underlapped the boots. The boots were some steel that I could bend into place and strap together with rollerblade-like straps. They had three steel layers from my toes to my heel.

I tied on the shoulder protections and buttoned my tattered cape on. The cape was ripped along the edges and a worn out red color. It covered a little of my left shoulder and fell down to my waist.

I tied on the arm armor and pulled the gauntlet onto my hands. Carefully, I adjusted the wrist tighteners so that I could use my wrist to its fullest and finally picked up the helmet. I didn't need it yet but I put it one to see the whole thing come together.

I opened my eyes to reveal the whole thing together and smirked. It looked a ton ,better than my old vigilante costume.

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I set my phone down and looked at the costume. It was just what I'd drawn on the paper. I unzipped the back of the full body suit and stepped into it. The pant legs stopped around the middle of my calf. I pulled the suit all the way up and stuck my arms through the sleeves, pulling the suit on comfortably.

I tightened the thigh strings and noted that they'd taken the shading for color so the inside and outside of my thighs were black with rose detailings. I scrunched up the long sleeves and adjusted the chest strings. Then I put on the black floral scarf over my head. Then I pulled my pink gloves on and puffed out the black rims.

I tied my blue and white hair up in my signature pink bow then left without looking in the mirror. I know that I look good since I designed that costume anyway.

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I immediately pulled on the light gray jumpsuit and zipped up the back. It was sleeveless and tight so that It wouldn't fall down. Then I grabbed the small green jacket. It was tight and basically felt like sleeves on their own. They had holes all around them and gave off a sort of post apocalypse vibe to me.

I pulled on the black lace gloves and clipped on the clunky support belt that they had designed so I wouldn't have to rely on my quirk so much in dire situations. Before I was finished, I carefully stuck my leg into the fabric to leather boots. They also ombre from forest green to black with the same holeish pattern as my jacket.

I almost left without the most important piece though. Grabbing them and putting them on without my bandana to see clearly. I looked in the mirror and nodded, determined to prove my mother was wrong about my "villain" quirk.

~Battle Training~

Terra's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

All Might stood in front of the class as if he was ready to train new sidekicks or something. I sighed and crossed my arms. Looking around at everyone's costumes I could tell some were more creative than others were when it came to a basically forever costume. Then again some went for comfort rather than looks.

"Now for this lesson," He shouted, "We'll be dividing into teams. We'll be drawing lots for the teams. One will be the heroes and the other will be the villains."

"You all will be battling inside the apartment so you'll want to avoid any excessive damage to the building. Even if you are a villain, you wouldn't want the building crumbling around you."

"Villains will be protecting a "bomb" until the time runs out while the heroes will either try to contain the villains with this capture tape or obtain the bomb from the villains."

"You can choose where to put it and choose what to do exactly as long as you avoid structural damage. Now, we'll be drawing lots to decide the teams."

I walked up to the box and pulled out a small piece of paper. I unfolded it and perked up at the name.

"Team L, Hero?"

"You're with me! We're going to win by a landslide!"

I turned around to see Alexa raising her hand above her head. I chuckled and high fived her.

"Let's do this, partner."

"This'll be an interesting match," Rosa muttered, holding up her paper claiming Team K, Villain."

Victoria flipped hers for me to see, revealing the same team as Rosa. They fist-bumped and started to talk about the probable strategy for the coming assignment. Jordan reached into the box and pulled out two.

"Whoops," she stuttered.

"That's okay Young Black just put those back and choose another one," All Might laughed.

She nodded and reached in again, "Huh, Team M, Hero. Wonder who my partner is?"

"Maybe it'll be me," Salena stuck her tongue out at Jordan, playfully. She stirred around the papers and dramatically pulled out a slim paper, "Aw, too bad. Team H, Villain."

Mame pulled out hers and jumped up and down, "Salena! We're teammates!"

Salena jumped up and down too, "Yus! Short children should always stick together! Sorry Jordan."

She just chuckled, "That's okay. Besides I've gotten to work with my partner before anyway so you're so going down."

"Oh ho is that a challenge," Salena leaned towards Jordan, looking up slyly.

"Yes. Yes it is," Jordan said, leaning down to Salena.

Tarran snickered walking up beside me, "You guys are too fun. Jordan seems like we're working together again."

She nodded, "Let's do this."

I punched my hand, "Alright Alexa, let's finish these weirdos."

Terra and Alexa V.S. Victoria and Rosa (Narrator's P.O.V.)

While the rest of Class 1-A left for the examination room, four students were left behind in the arena. After all of the other practices it was finally their turns. Terra and Alexa, the heroes, were readying a plan and their strengths for the villains while Victoria and Rosa talked about what they thought their friends would choose to do and organized the bomb's placement..

"The Battle Training will start now!"

Terra and Alexa jumped to the second floor immediately, Alexa punching the floor to explode up and Terra using her wolf quirk to strengthen her legs. They landed and started sneaking around the building, looking for the bomb room.

Meanwhile, Rosa was animating multiple objects in the room and Victoria was hopping down the side of the building, looking for their hero friends. She had just hopped onto a window sill when Terra came around the corner, motioning for Alexa to stay behind the corner. Victoria braced for impact as Terra ran towards the window.

Victoria quickly switched her magnetism to push her away from her forearms and then switched it again and launched her up to the bomb floor. Terra growled, hopped onto the sill, and started climbing up the building's fire escapes and water pipes. Alexa found the stairs and slid around the corner to climb them quickly.

Animated rocks and papers immediately started to grab her shoes to slow her down. She activated her quirk and burned the papers quickly. The rocks weighed down her soles but she was still able to reach the bomb floor. When she got up, Victoria and Terra burst through the windows. Victoria was closest to Alexa so she hopped behind Alexa and put her in a chokehold.

Terra growled again and took a step to test what Victoria would do. Victoria hesitantly tightened her grip around Alexa's neck, switching her magnetism to something stronger. Terra stepped back again when Alexa squeaked out in pain. Victoria dragged Alexa with her into the bomb's room while Terra stalked towards the two comrades. Alexa winced and activated her quirk, burning Victoria's leg connection.

Victoria hissed in pain and jumped back to reattach her connection. One of Victoria's biggest weaknesses was her quirk's sudden change to her molecular structure after the crash. Since her body wasn't exactly meant to have this quirk, the magnetic part of her quirk could be disrupted by intense heat or intense cold.

Alexa got up and walked towards Victoria, trying to be intimidating. Since Victoria had known Alexa to scream in the lunchroom over a meme, she just fixed the connection and jumped away from the two girls. Terra and Alexa ran towards Victoria and before they knew what was happening, the floor fell down below them.

Rosa staggered from behind the floor and looked down at the two dazed girls as the time ran out, "You were right Victoria. Animating some rocks in the floor did make it weaker. Huh, nice to know."

"VILLAINS WIN!"

The girls walked back to the video room as All Might shouted for the others to get ready.

"While they get ready for their trial does anyone know who was the best player in that battle," All Might asked the class.

A guy in the back spoke up and came to the front of the group, "Obviously Alexa. She was able to see the villain's weakness and use that to get herself out of the mess even if she had gotten into it in the first place."

"Good point, Young Mineta," All Might shouted.

The young man stood a little shorter than Alexa, maybe to her shoulders, and had a handsome but soft look to him. His hair was curly and purple with small ball shaped bumps around it. His eyes, purple, stared intently at Alexa, almost like a boyfriend would look at his girlfriend.

Alexa glanced away and muttered, "I didn't do much. I knew that Victoria's joints were weak because I knew her before U.A."

Terra tapped her on the shoulder, "Give yourself some credit, hun. You were awesome. Meanwhile, I lost my cool."

Victoria sighed, "Yeah, you were really scary when I grabbed Alexa. I totally thought you were going to bite my head off."

Rosa coughed, "Remind me to not animate that many things at once ever again!"

Victoria patted her on the head, "You were great."

"MINETA!?"

A girl in the back screamed. Everyone flinched as a loud slap was heard in the back again. Mineta stumbled out with a red mark on his face and a furious Jirou behind him. He ducked behind Alexa and hid behind her like a child.

"You freakin pervert," Jirou shouted, "She broke up with you so stop trying to get back with her. Ugh!"

"What the," Alexa exclaimed

"And now we're going to start the next match," All Might stepped in between the two classmates, "Everyone watch this next match closely for pointers, one of them is from a recommendation."

Tarran and Jordan V.S. Salena and Mame (Narrator's P.O.V.)

While Tarran and Jordan prepared for their battle, Salena and Mame were preparing the bomb for attack. Jordan stretched out her limbs and prepared to run. Tarran practiced solidifying his shadows and tested their elasticity. They'd worked together before but it was still a little awkward for the two of them.

"Alright, so my quirk isn't necessarily useful in battle training, but I think I could handle a hand-to-hand battle with someone," Jordan warned.

Tarran waved away her comment, "I'm confident we'll be fine. If needs be, I can use my quirk to fight for the both of us and you can be the brains."

"Yeah right," she chuckled, rolling her eyes, "I almost got held back a grade last year."

"Well, I think you're battle smart rather than society smart."

"Oh. Thanks."

"The final Battle Training begins now," All Might shouted throughout the speakers.

The two teens crept into the building and immediately made it up three floors before they ran into their first obstacle. According to the ground, Taurus had knocked out the floor and Salena used the window glass to make a precarious and thin floor.

Due to the sun shining into the room, most of the shadows were obscured in the corners. Tarran pulled shadows out of his armor and tried to make a stable bridge to the next staircase but could only make one that was an inch thick. He shook his head and looked at Jordan for any ideas.

"Hmm," she muttered, "So you used the shadows from your cape already and armor so if you used my shadows would that do anything?"

"I think it would be a centimeter thicker or maybe an inch. I can try but it'll feel strange," Tarran mumbled.

"Whatever it takes to get to that bomb and rub a victory in Salena's face."

Tarran nodded and breathed out as he focused on Jordan's overcast shadow, slowly looking up her body until he got to her head. Then a sort of cold winding blew through Jordan's veins.

She shivered as she watched the opaque shadows creep up her legs and arms eventually clumping together before it came off and combined with her head's shadows. They then combined with Tarran's shadows and made the path an inch wider.

"That's still not much, so what if you try to take the shadows from down the stairs," Jordan thought aloud.

"I can get some of them but not sure how stable they would be since I can't make any shadows further than 35 feet from me solid," Tarran responded.

He called the shadows with the radius and solidified them, testing if it was wide enough. Now it was five inches wide.

"Alright be careful because I don't know if all the shadows are solid."

Jordan nodded and tested the shadows. Carefully, she started to make her way along the narrow bridge. Tarran grunted and started to walk behind her, widening the bridge as he took shadows from behind them and added them to the front. Soon, they were in the staircase.

Tarran kneeled down and caught his breath while Jordan scoped out the next floor. It was a seemingly normal looking room but she was still careful with where she stepped. Tarran joined her and crept up to the final floor/ the final boss.

Mame was standing in the middle of the room staring at the two. They choked on surprise and dashed behind the wall. Mame coughed and walked towards them, staring at where they ran. A young boy appeared beside her and walked along with her.

He had dirty blonde hair and a scar across his left eye. His eyes were a golden brown that seemed to shine with the power of the sun. He was wearing oldies chimney sweep clothes and worn down brown overalls. He put out his arm and stopped her from going any further.

A broadsword appeared in his hands and suddenly the sword was coming down onto Tarran. He quickly formed a shield with shadows and stopped the sword. He coughed and pushed the sword back at the boy. The boy lost the battle and jumped back to protect Mame, who was looking pale.

The boy quickly caught her as she stumbled forward. They stood together and suddenly she lifted her hand and reached towards Tarran and Jordan, head facing downwards. She closed her fist and the young boy disappeared. Lilac mist shrouded her body, sparkling like armor.

Mame looked up at the two teens and ran forwards. Stumbling a little bit, she jumped and slammed down on Tarran's shield, breaking through. His shield ran back to the corners they came from. Quickly, Jordan whipped off her goggles and looked at Mame with a squinting eye.

Mame winced but kept up the onslaught of punches. Tarran dragged Jordan away from Mame and dodged her attacks. Suddenly, Mame coughed and wiped away the little blood she had from the muscular stress. The lilac being around her fell away and formed into a lady that seemed to be in her early twenties.

Jordan ran to Mame, checked her pulse, and wrapped her ankles in capture tape. The young lady faded slowly, promising to Mame that she'd be fine.

"One down," Tarran huffed.

Jordan nodded, "One to go."

"Where would Salena be?"

"Not sure. I feel like she would've tried to do something stupid sneaky."

"She's possibly in the bomb's room."

"Nope! Not in there," a happy voice echoed.

"What the-," Jordan shouted as she was covered in a thick layer of glass.

"You probably didn't hear over how loud that fight with Mame was but I've been gathering the glass I used to make the floor."

Salena appeared, walking across a rafter above the two heroes. She had her gloves pulled all the way down and glass coating her fingers, shaped like claws.

"Guess you'll have to give up," she shrugged, "Jordan is trapped and I can rearrange my glass to shine on your shadows."

"We can still get to the bomb, Salena," Tarran sarcastically reminded her.

She coughed, obviously hiding her realization, "Well I'll just have to stop you then."

"How are you going to do that from up there?"

"I am perfectly capable of staying up here while fighting you, Tarran."

"Oh really," Tarran smirked.

Salena glared at him, "What are you planning?"

Suddenly, shadows darted out from his armor and tripped up Salena. Luckily she managed to jump over them, but she narrowly grabbed the beam and pulled herself back up.

"Were you trying to kill me?!"

Tarran snickered and shook his head, "No. I was just trying to get you to come down so I can trap you with this tape."

Salena chuckled sarcastically, "You'll never get me!"

And with that she'd successfully gotten Tarran riled up as he shouted, "Oh you're on!"

He lifted himself up to the beam and parkoured after Salena, who had run before he even finished his shout. Jordan continued to find a way out of the glass, hopefully not cutting herself in the process. She checked if there was any wiggle room and found that she could barely reach her pocket knife.

She grabbed it and started to carefully pick at the glass edges to wear them down. Luckily, Salena had forgotten to sharpen the edges inside the cocoon so Jordan wasn't in immediate danger. Meanwhile…

"AGH! TARRAN GO AWAY!"

"Salena you're the one who taunted me and now you want me to leave you alone? Make up your mind woman!"

Salena vaulted to the glass floor room and dove through the floor, carefully moving the glass and replacing it before Tarran reached her. Salena thought it would slow him down but soon after she heard a harsh crash from the room.

He just jumped through it anyway?! Salena screamed mentally

"Salena, come 'ere!"

Salena jumped and pushed up on a glass pillar. Quickly, she used the glass to fasten herself to the ceiling and prayed he wouldn't look up. She sucked in a breath as he ran past her and around the corner.

Carefully, she dropped down again and ran back up the stairs again. Before, she realized what happened Tarran was behind her with the capture tape aimed at her wrists. She squealed and pulled her body into a somersault. Tarran turned quickly and whipped out more of the tape.

Salena ran again and was tackled by Tarran. Struggling, Salena tried to throw Tarran off. She was able to unstabilize him and ran up the stairs again.

"Stop following me! I'm getting tired of running up stairs," Salena shouted, exasperated.

Then she tripped… But she didn't get caught...In fact, she fell into Tarran's legs and pulled him down with her. They crashed at the bottom of the stairs on the fifth floor. Tarran stood up first and pinned her legs down. He leaned over her and attempted to strap her hands together but she punched his helmet, causing a thousand bells to ring in his ears.

She stumbled to the fourth floor stairs and was about to jump over them when Tarran appeared above her. She screeched and suddenly it felt like everything was going in slow motion. He was flipping through the air and bringing the tape down on her hands when…

EEEEEEEEENNNNNNNGGGGGGG!

"Congratulations Hero Team M! You have grabbed the bomb."

Tarran glanced at Salena as surprise set in and they both ran into the opposite wall that separated the two main stair cases.

It was silent for a minute before two pronounced "OW's" rang out of the building.

~School Weekend~

Tarran's P.O.V. (Age 17)

I sighed and flopped over the couch arm, holding out my phone, my arms straight and my fingers poised over top of the name. I shook my head. It was stil soon to talk to them. I clicked on Rosa instead and read through past messages and found the ones I was looking for.

R: Thanks for today (read at 10:34 pm)

T: Wdym (read at 10:34 pm)

R: The violin thing (read at 10:34 pm)

T: Oh. No problem. It's been a while since I played so it was refreshing (read 10:35pm)

R: Still. It made my day a bit better. Haru was being a jerk (read at 10:35 pm)

T: I'm glad it helped…I've got to go to bed now...Night (read at 10:35 pm)

R: Yeah night (read at 10:35 pm)

I turned on my back and put my arm over my eyes, sighing. I lifted my arm slightly and let the light fill my eyes. Almost like an anime transition I recalled that day.

~Flashback~ (A week before U.A. started)

I woke up to the feeling of fur all over my face. I opened my eyes to see the newest member of the ungodly amount of cats already here. Zippy was lying stretched out across my chest.

"Cmon Zips, do we need to do this every morning," I asked groggily.

His response was just to stretch out more. I gently picked him up and held him while I sat up. As I scratched his ears I looked to see where I fell asleep this time. This time I happened to pass out on the couch.

"Ugh, come on Zippy lets get you guys and gals some food."

I put him down on the floor and was forced to carefully watch my step as I made my way to their food and water bowls. After I was filling up the bowls I went into my room to change into my clothes for the day.

I put on a basic long sleeve black shirt and gray cargo pants. As I was making my way to the door to head out for the day I yelled back into the house, "Heading out for the day, Erasure."

Silence

He is probably still sleeping. As I closed the door behind me I locked it to make sure none of the cats got out. I took in a breath of fresh air and started making my way down the street. I really didn't have any plans for the day, I just wanted to take a stroll back through the park.

As I was on my way there, I spotted someone out of the crowd. It was Rosa with her strange two toned hair. I caught up with her, since it was pretty hard to lose her with the blue and white coloring.

"How are you Rosa," I asked.

"Huh, oh I'm good Tarran, what about you," She replied.

"Fine just felt like taking a walk in the park nearby."

"Mind if I join you," She asked.

"Nope, not at all."

So we made our way to the park and sat down on one of the benches.

"Did you know there's a warehouse not too far into the forest," I asked

"Yea, I heard about it. Isn't it supposed to be haunted or something," She replied.

"Do you wanna go see it," I asked.

"Sure, nothin' better to do," She said.

We got up and started walking through the forest. As I was walking her through the forest, I noticed a couple foxes dash past in front of us.

"They were cute," She noted.

"Eh, they normally pass here around this time," I replied.

"How did you know that," She questioned, giving me a questioning look, "Hmm?"

"Well, I-I-I come here often to watch the animals," I lied.

"Hmm, didn't think you were a nature lover," She replied.

"Well let's keep moving, we're almost there."

As we made it to the warehouse, I looked over to my right and remembered falling out of that tree and first using my quirk.

"What you looking at?"

"Nothing."

We went inside, carefully. It looked like only a few things had been moved around since I left. I watched as Rosa took off to explore the lower levels. I jumped up to the second floor and made my way to what used to be my room. This appears to be where the investigation happened. Everything was tossed around and it looked like they had found most everything I didn't take with me.

"HEY, Tarran come here," She yelled up to me.

"Coming down," I yelled back.

I hopped down to the second floor and climbed my way back down to the first level.

"Look what I found," She said with pride and a smile on her face. She held up a violin to show me. I had almost forgotten about that thing. I had practiced with what little sheet music I could find in here.

"Can I see it," I asked

She pulled it close to her, "If you can catch me," she teased.

"Oh you are on Rosa," I said. She immediately took off into the forest.

Lets see how long till she gets lost.

I gave her a few seconds head start and summoned by shadows beneath me and launched myself into the trees from there it was all about following her trail.

As I followed her trail I saw her trying to move the bushes to lose my trail. I let out a light chuckle I slowly dropped behind her trying to not make a sound. She turned around and saw me.

"Hello."

She started to run back toward the tree line.

"Oh come on Rosa," I launched towards the tree line and swung off the branches to see if I could land on top of her. I had just missed her but she turned around to taunt me and tripped over her feet and fell on her back.

I rushed over to her, "Are you alright Rosa."

"Yea I'm fine. You caught me, you get the violin."

I held my hand out to help her up. She took my hand and stood up.

"Here, I want to see what you can do," she said, handing the violin to me.

"Heh, I'm not that good," I chuckled, reminiscently.

"Cmon I want to see."

"Fine."

I grabbed the violin and bow and sat down on the nearest bench. I took my time to make sure it was in tune. This is the only song I know right now. I started to play Moonlight Sonata slowly and carefully.

"That was beautiful. I didn't know you could play that well."

"Thanks," I said, rubbing my neck bashfully. We sat in the grass just talking about whatever. When Rosa had to go home, I walked her. She went inside and I got back to Erasure's house.

~Flashback End~

I groaned, rolled off the couch, and onto the floor. I landed face first so I just stayed there until Erasure told me to get up.

"Didn't you tell me you and your friends were going somewhere," he inquired, kicking my toes.

"Yeah, " I answered, "But that isn't until 12pm."

"It's 11:48."

"…..I'M GOING TO BE LATE?!"

"Stop shouting. You're as bad as mic," he shook his head and went to make some coffee.

I ran upstairs to get dressed and then stumbled down the stairs, dodging cats. Erasure handed me a cup of coffee and drank his own while I set it down and tied my shoes on. I was about to head out the door when Erasure called.

I turned around, "Yeah what's up?"

He threw something at me and I caught it in my right hand, "Don't forget your keys. I'm not going to let you in."

"Thanks Erasure!"

He waved absently and I started running towards the meet-up point.

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

"Oh come on Mame!"

I flinched at how loud Rosa was being, "Rosa shush! You're being too loud."

"I'll stop yelling when you admit it!"

"Admit what," someone called from behind us.

I jumped and turned around to see Tarran huffing beside us. He was wearing a black mid sleeve shirt and a grayish silver scarf. He had on dark green cargo pants and black sneakers. His hair wasn't styled due to running into the wind.

"Nothing," I shouted, sending a warning glare to Rosa.

She stuck her tongue at me and roped an arm around Tarran, pulling him down to our heights.

"Soooooo what we going to do," she asked.

"Um… We could go to the arcade in the mall or we could just go to a cafe," I suggested.

"That sounds like a good idea," Tarran said, straightening up. He looked around, "Are the others coming or is it just us three?"

"Juno needed Salena for a photoshoot," Rosa sighed dramatically, leaning against me.

"Victoria, Ally, and Mr. Toshinori were going on a picnic," I added.

"Terra was going to train with someone on how to control her quirk better."

"And Alexa and her Aunt were going to visit her parents...It's their anniversary today."

"So I guess it's just me and you two lovely ladies," Tarran teased, adding a wink.

My heart fluttered a bit while Rosa just responded with, "I'm not a lady. I'm a gremlin."

Tarran laughed, "Well then I guess I'm accompanied by one lovely lady and a lovely gremlin."

We all laughed and started walking towards the cafe. It was only 3 blocks away from my house so when we ran into my brother it wasn't much of a surprise.

"Hi Mey," He yelled, waving, Rodney behind him.

"Hey Cody," I yelled back, leaving Tarran and Rosa behind me as I ran towards him.

He high-fived me as I jumped beside him and turned around. Tarran and Rosa caught up.

"Oh! Tarran you've never met Coden or Rodney have you?"

(Don't mind me just blushing from embarrassment as I realize their rhyming names in Math class)

"Coden and Rodney," He asked, confused, "Are you guys fraternal twins or something?"

"What!? No, no, no," Rodney chuckled, "Total chance of luck. Please call me Ro."

I rubbed my neck sheepishly, "Cody and Ro are boyfriend and well, um, boyfriend…"

He blushed, "I am so sorry for assuming! Hope you two will be happy together."

Coden chuckled and looked up at him, "That's alright. So what are you guys doing?"

"We're going to that new cafe, y'know that one over by the arcade," I said, pointing to the general direction.

"Ah," Rodney sighed, "It's a really cute cafe. It had some cats that you could hold on your lap."

Rosa perked up and exclaimed, "Really?! Um excuse us but we've got to go. Like, Now!"

She grabbed my wrist and started pulling me to the cafe, leaving the boys behind.

"H-hey Rosa," Tarran yelled, "Wait up. Uh, excuse us."

Tarran quickly bowed his head and ran to catch up to us. He caught up and was able to use his long legs to keep up with Rosa. Darn them and their freakishly long legs. I swear my legs were going as fast as the alien in an old cartoon called 'Loony Toons'. What was his name?

We arrived and took in the cafe. It was, pleasantly, a baby tealish color and light creams. The door had a small cat sign, the bell being the cat's collar bell. Rosa opened the door and bolted to the register to get us a table. Tarran opened the door and held it for me before following me in.

I breathed in the lovely cafe smell that was mixed with that newly bathed kitten smell. Rosa waved us over to a table and scooted over for us in the corner booth. She was already holding a lovely pristine kitten that stared at me with unblinking blue eyes.

I scratched under her chin and squealed when she purred with delight. Tarran reached over and pet her, too before the waitress brought over two more kittens.

"I figured you two would've like a kitten as well," She giggled and took our orders before getting to another table and pulling a kitten out of her apron to give it to an eight year old. I looked around the cafe and made note of the animal stations.

You could feed the older ones or play and pet them. If you wanted, you could even bathe them though a waitress would have to be present to make sure you didn't hurt the kitten. A kitten gate was across all doors and had a small shelf at the top so persistent kittens couldn't climb it.

I giggled and held up the kitten to look at him in the light. He had soft orange patches around his eyes and a patch on his tail. The rest of his fur was a soft dusty white. He mewed and I immediately touched noses with him and hugged him against my cheek. He mewed in delight and cued giggles from me.

We ordered our food and spent two hours at the cafe just talking before Tarran had to go home.

"My…Guardian wanted me home before late," Tarran told us hesitantly, "Thanks for today. I had a great time you two."

Tarran went to the register and paid for his meal then left and ran home. We watched him leave and soon Rosa and I paid for our half of the meal. I walked Rosa home and got home quickly and safely. I snuggled into my sheets and hugged my stuffed tacocat.

I'd done it. I went on a friend date with them. Yay! I mentally patted myself on the back for not blushing to death at the cafe. I smiled and drifted to sleep rather quickly.

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I groaned and positioned myself facing the camera, my hands "gracefully" resting at my sides like Juno demanded. She hummed with satisfaction and told the photographer to take the picture. I thought about the invitation to the cafe Mame had sent me and sighed.

I shrugged to myself and acknowledged that this was a good time for a just-them- three date.

"Alright Salena," Juno yelled, clapping her hands to get my attention, "Go change into that midnight blue ombre to yellow one."

"The one with the sun on the hem and moon on the sleeve," I checked.

She nodded, "Yes. Be careful with it, the hem is very sensitive to the ground."

I nodded and lifted up the white skirt I was wearing to not get it dirty on the way. I got out of the dress quickly and carefully slipped into the one she'd requested. It was a sort of silky material and slid down sweetly along my hips and legs. It was a v-neck with thick straps. It turned from the midnight blue top to the bottom that was sunflower yellow.

I picked up the drifting hem and walked back to the model's stand. I froze when I realized my father was there now. He'd never come to a model session before. Said 'he couldn't bear to see his daughter in those dresses.' I gulped nervously and called them.

"Juno," I said, gathering my left hand's material to keep it off the ground, "This is the dress, correct?"

She nodded and went back to talking with my father. He glanced up at me and quickly did a double take to look at me again. He examined every detail of the dress before turning his attention back to what Juno was saying. They talked the entire time while I modeled the dress for the photographer.

Finally, it was time to finish and I was able to put on my t-shirt and jeans again. I was tying my sneakers when someone burst into the dressing room. I looked up and jumped to see a man I didn't know.

"Excuse me you can't be in here!"

I tilted my head to see his face a little better. Suddenly, a flash took my picture and I blinked to see the man running.

"Security! That man took a picture!"

Two suits ran after the man and deleted the picture. I sighed and gripped my elbows, trying to calm down. It wasn't everyday a fan was able to break in but when it happened they always took pictures, sometimes bursting in when I just got the bodice of a dress above my chest.

All of them were close calls and we were able to delete the pictures but it couldn't stop the shaking.

"What happened back here, " Juno asked, raising her voice to be heard. She turned the corner and narrowed her eyes when she saw the fan. She might not have loved me like a mother but she did care enough for her models to stop any fan. Father came around the corner and saw me staring down the hall.

He followed my stare and watched Juno talk down to the fan. He crept past me, as if I would explode at him, and came up behind Juno to watch. I shivered. They looked like they should be a couple but I looked like I was just another model to them. I hugged myself, grabbed my jean shoulder bag, and texted Juno that I was heading home.

I heard someone walk towards me but then stop. I didn't need to look back to know it was my cowardly father.

My father used to be a Pro Hero called "Sand Grinder". He would stop the villains and save pedestrians from collapsing debris. I idolized him when I was little, scratching out the 11 and redrawing a 1 on all of the posters I got. I always tried to hype him up before work so I could hear a story about that day.

But when Mom got sick, I was 8 and everything changed around the house. He got quieter, distant, and always went to his room after saying good night to me. I was in charge of breakfast now and would wake up to make sure he ate something. I didn't mind that he wouldn't talk to me about it, I was just satisfied that he was there while mom was in the hospital.

When Mom...died, he didn't even talk to me somedays. A couple of months later he met Juno and they got married...Everything sort of went downhill from that point on. I had more tantrums and wouldn't even listen to Juno if she was talking. My dad then decided to stop hero work and instead just became a stupid manager of his agency, handing the leadership to one of his side-kicks.

That was the day I think I really stopped looking at him as a parent. It broke me to not even believe my dad was my father but the damage was done. I sighed and shook my head at the door before pushing it open. The sun filtered into my eyes quickly and filled me with determination.

I was going to be a top ten hero when I grew up and I would look at my father and recruit him to MY agency. I'd make sure he couldn't decline. He could have Juno but he was my father and no one was going to take him from ME.

(Sorry that was all the story I could come up with for the weekend side story)

Terra's Interview: "Go on ahead Victoria! Uh All Might acts like a dad or something. You can tell he's really supportive of what we say and do...I'm sorry I should catch up to my friends before they get lunch without me."

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

We all sat down in class and watched as Aizawa stood up at the front. He gave some students criticism about the battle training and then got onto a new topic.

"Sorry for the sudden announcement," he mumbled, cuing nervous mutters, "But today you'll be picking a Class President."

The class exploded into shouts about who it should be. Us eight just kind of jumped in surprise and looked at each other. While the rest of the class was talking about who it should be we conversed with each other.

"Who do you guys think would be better to be the president," Tarran asked.

Salena put a finger to her chin, "I think maybe Izu, Momo, or maybe even Terra."

"What? Me? No way. Even if the class voted for me I would decline," Terra responded, leaning forward in her chair.

"What about the fast guy, um what's his name, Ida," Victoria suggested.

Rosa scoffed, "I suppose he'd be an amazing choice if we were all more mature and didn't care about having fun. He's a stick in the mud sometimes."

Mame nodded, "You have to admit that he'd be fairly well at managing tasks in class though. I think Alexa and Tarran could also be pretty good presidents since they are usually very calm in situations."

Alexa shook her head, "I may be calm in tough situations but put me in front of a crowd or organizing normal tasks, I'll lose my lunch and my sanity."

I chuckled, "Hmm I think maybe Kirishime would be a safe bet as well as Izuku."

Ida stood up and suggested a vote be made. We looked at each other again and shrugged. I decided to vote for Kirishima since he was a nice guy and also seemed to be very dedicated. I wrote my name and sat back down next to Rosa, who had voted first to get it over with.

In fact, to get it over with quicker, she had voted for herself. Tarran voted for Victoria. Victoria voted for Momo. Salena and Alexa both voted for Izuku and Terra voted for Momo too. Soon we had our tallies.

Izuku was the president and Momo was vice president for class. I giggled when Izuku tried to stumble through whatever he was trying to say. Then the bell rang and we were all let out for lunch. I came outside to find Salena apologizing to Izuku.

"I'm sorry," she chuckled as he pulled on her cheeks in a brotherly way, "My mind went blank when I got up there and I panicked!"

He let go, "Okay but I'm watching you."

I walked up behind Salena and watched him catch up with Ida and Uraraka. I placed a hand on her shoulder, "Our little boy is growing up."

She bit into her handkerchief, clearly playing along, "Oh I'll miss him. Running off with his friends instead of eating the family."

We glanced at each other and exploded with laughter. When everyone else got out they just looked at us like we were crazy. We all got to the lunch room quickly and got our food, making faces at Izuku's group.

Salena, Alexa, and me even ran past their table and said our "goodbyes to the son." We ate and just hung out, waiting for the bell to ring for class.

Terra's P.O.V. (AGE: 16)

I stretched over the back of the lunch booth. Tarran, Mame, and Rosa were sitting next to me. Victoria, Salena, Jordan, and Alexa were across from us, facing us. I sighed.

"Man those interviewers were like vultures," Rosa growled, "Did you see how they tried to follow Mr. Aizawa when he shooed them away."

Tarran chuckled, "Yeah that lady reporter was so surprised when the gate came down. I would be if that happened to me."

Salena shivered, "I had no idea what to do with my hands when they asked me about All Might. I very nearly put my arms and flexed like he does."

Jordan poked Salena for good fun but basically stabbed past her and fell on the ground when an alarm started blaring.

"WHAT THE *ALARM*'' Tarran swore, jumping next to Mame. She jumped towards him too and stayed close. I assumed it was because she was shorter.

"SECURITY LEVEL 3 HAS BEEN BROKEN! STUDENTS PLEASE EVACUATE IN AN ORDERLY FASHION!"

Ida glanced at us to which we all shrugged. He asked an upperclassman who told him it meant that someone had infiltrated the school. Salena and Jordan grabbed each other to avoid being lost in the crowd. But to much avail they were forced to follow in hopes of not getting trampled.

Tarran made sure that Alexa and Mame were near him so that people would see them there next to him and not step on them. Victoria, me and Rosa jumped onto the table when we saw more people running towards us.

Izuku, Uraraka, and Ida were overtaken by the crowd but I saw Ida ram into a window. I flinched for him and saw his mouth moving. I strained to hear him better but only heard, "No….Media...Calm."

I facepalmed and was about to jump off the table when Uraraka hit his hand and he started floating. Suddenly, he started spiraling towards the far hall and hit the wall above the exit door.

"EVERYONE! EVERYTHING'S FINE! IT'S JUST THE PRESS!"

Victoria and Rosa snorted and started laughing so hard they fell off the table. I started chuckling and found Tarran standing still in the middle of the crowd. I could tell that he was with Mame and Alexa when someone moved to reveal Alexa's fire red hair beside him and a hopping reddish-brunette head that would disappear in the crowd.

I scanned the hall but couldn't find Jordan or Salena. They must've gotten out somehow. When all the students returned to the lunchroom Salena and Jordan came with them, out of breath and quite messed up.

Salena's hair was nearly out of her tight bun and Jordan's bandana was ripped. Instead she had tied her tie around her head in hopes to save people the pain of looking into her eyes and causing even more panic when someone doubled over in the crowd.

Izuku and Uraraka helped Ida get down while we were all laughing at Jordan and Salena's story.

"I nearly let her go," Jordan exclaimed.

Salena nodded, "It was so hard to stay together and get out through the door. How the heck did the press get in anyway?"

Jordan shrugged, "I don't know but if I see any one of them, I'm punching."

We all laughed and started cleaning up as the bell rang. Izuku and Momo were standing in the front of the classroom so everyone quieted to hear the announcements.

"I think Ida should be the class president," Izuku said. Everyone stared at him for an explanation, "He was calm in that situation and found the best course of action."

We all agreed that he was an awesome choice and got into the lesson of that day.

Alexa's P.O.V. (AGE: 16)

I hopped through the classroom door and quickly sat down at my desk before the bell rang. We stood up to welcome Aizawa at Ida's call.

"For today's special basic hero training All Might, me, and one other will supervise," Aizawa sighed.

Sero raised his hand, "What're we doing exactly?"

Aizawa held up a small card with the words rescue, "We'll be preparing you for disaster relief, from fires to floods. It's Rescue Training. It's up to you whether you wear your costumes or not since some of them aren't suited to rescue. The site is a bit remote so we'll be going by bus. That's all. Get ready."

I stayed sitting to avoid a crowd and just talked with the group until we could get our costumes safely. We got dressed quickly and got onto the school's bus "orderly" even if it was fairly open at the front. I was talking with Rosa and Terra, over the seat, when an explosion erupted at the front of the bus. I sighed and glanced down the aisle.

Salena, who was sitting beside Victoria, looked up but shook her head and looked down at her book again. It was Bakugou literally sparking the problem. I sighed. Kaminari had said something and got Bakugou angry. I watched, interested in what was going to happen when Aizawa called for our attention.

"We're here. Look sharp."

We all stepped out of the bus and stopped to see the huge building.

I marveled at the building. It was huge! It domed in the middle and took up three football fields of land, probably even more than that. We walked in the door and saw someone standing at the entrance. They were wearing a space suit thingy and a cool helmet to cover their face.

"It's Hero Thirteen," Izuku exclaimed.

"I love Thirteen," Uraraka cheered.

Thirteen spoke above the chatter saying, "Every accident you can imagine is here. I built this facility myself. I call it 'The Unforeseen Simulation Joint!"

USJ also stood for Universal Studio Japan, so we all had a small giggle about it. I was too busy admiring the structure to hear what Aizawa was talking to Thirteen about so I didn't bother faking attention.

"Before we start I have a couple of points to make," Thirteen announced, "As I'm sure many of you are aware my quirk is called Black Hole. It can suck in and tear apart anything."

"And you've used it to save people in all sorts of disasters," Izuku added.

"Indeed. However, my power could easily kill. I've no doubt there are some among you with similar abilities."

I glanced at Jordan and glimpsed her eyes under her goggles. Her eyes were focused on Thirteen with a chilling understanding. I shivered. I felt bad that Jordan couldn't look anyone in the eyes without hurting them. Well, except for special instances like Salena's mysterious glass eye.

"In our superpowered society, the use of quirks is heavily restricted and monitored. We must never forget it just takes one wrong move with an uncontrollable quirk for people to die."

"In Aizawa's fitness test you learned your own hidden All Might's battle training you experienced the danger of having other quirks used against you and how yours can pose against others'."

"This class will show you a new perspective! You will learn how to utilize your quirks to save people from natural disasters and other harms. Your powers aren't meant to inflict harm!"

Izuku and Uraraka bounced on their heels and started getting inspired. I stared at my own hands and glanced at Jordan again. It seemed like our entire group had a deep understanding of what she was saying.

Jordan, Terra, and me could potentially kill. Tarran, Mame, and Rosa, could drive people past insanity while Victoria and Salena could cause crippling damage. I shivered at the thought that some of our quirks could've been a stupid scary villain's.

I brought my attention to Thirteen as he concluded his touching speech, "I hope you leave here with the understanding that you are meant to help people. That is all! I thank you for listening."

He bowed and earned an excited clapping from the class. Terra perked up and Tarran seemed to bow under a pressure. Terra's eyes narrowed and Tarran started to shake a bit.

"What's going on," Salena asked, concerned. The rest of us turned back to the lesson just as Aizawa noticed a swirling vortex. It was mixing with purple and other dark colors. I gasped and pointed to draw everyone's attention towards the wormhole.

"Huddle Up And Don't Move," Aizawa shouted, "Thirteen! Protect The Students!"

People started walking out as the wormhole grew bigger and bigger. A crowd flooded out and started positioning themselves, ready to fight tooth and claw. Terra gasped and grabbed Victoria's wrist. Tarran started breathing harder as though he might've recognised someone.

He was muttering under his breath, "Impossible. Im-impossible..."

"Are those robots like in the entrance exam," Kirishima shouted.

"Don't move! Those are…," Terra and Tarran stepped back in fear as they whispered the words with Aizawa, "Villains!"

~Under Attack~

Salena's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

(Each of these take place from the beginning of the fight)

I gasped as Aizawa jumped over the staircase, preparing his moves to fight the villains. The portal villain appeared in front of the group, surrounding the class quickly. I was pulled away from the villain. I tripped over my feet and fell down on my butt before I could see who had grabbed me.

Victoria helped me and we covered our ears as Bakugou and Kirishima attacked the villain. Thirteen shouted for them to back up. I screamed as the blackish smoke surrounded me and my friends. I reached out for them as my world started to disappear quickly.

It felt as though I was tumbling around the space for an hour before I finally got my footing. I ran forward and out of the smoky, inky black and nearly ran into a sword. I dodged it and somersaulted through the holder's legs.

I pushed myself up and looked around. I glanced at my hands. They were shaking and I couldn't seem to catch my breath. I was surrounded by villains with quirks ranging from an animal mutation to stretching limbs. They were all sneering at me as I tried to examine my surroundings.

Ruins? No, landslide! I'm in the landslide arena!

"Well. Well. Well," One of the villains chuckled, "Look who it is boys! Sand Grinder's little princess!" They all laughed evilly. "Do you know how many of us were sent to that horrible prison because of your father?"

I started breathing hard and got ready for a fight. The man who had spoken to me looked as though he was mashed with a rock himself. His biceps and muscles were gleaming with minerals and his body had random clusters of rocks. He sauntered over to me before picking up the speed and getting ready to ram into me.

I tried to dodge but my feet were hit from below and I was sent spinning into a pile of dirt. Something stabbed my side. I winced and was relieved to find that it was a large shard of glass. I broke it down with my quirk and started glancing around more. Soon I had a block of glass and started fighting the other villains while Rockie watched me. There were maybe six

One had green eyes that darted around crazily, searching for any possible way to attack me. Another villain looked almost normal had it not been for the way his hair stood up, completely vertically. I could see a slight shake in the earth but I was 50% sure that Rockie was causing it.

Two of the villains didn't have physical quirks or rather obvious quirks. The last villain was wearing a tank top with a cut out back so that their hulking wings could be used. They were also fairly tall and seemed that they could crush me if I let them.

Quickly, I started forming and reforming glass shards into weapons. The two normal looking villains charged me, powering up their quirks. One's hands started turning red and the other had started growing bigger and, um, bluer.

Red Hands punched me in the leg since I dodged, and left a scorched mark on my boots. I ran across to a pile of garbage and searched for more glass I could use. I gathered whatever I could quickly and started to throw bigger "disks" at Red Hands. Blue, meanwhile, was running around and getting bluer. Finally, he started running towards me and threw a ton of punches at me. Something boosted them into the air and I had to struggle to hold my ground when he fell on the small glass shield I'd formed.

I pushed him off and tried to somersault away from Red Hands' attack. Wings was the biggest and scariest villain so I tried to avoid fighting them until finally They advanced on me. I ducked away from their sweeping wings and drove a glass spear through one of them into the ground.

They ripped it out and I could tell that they were off balance from the force. I saw my opening and tripped the villain. They fell down hard and struggled to get up again. I realized then that a lot of their important feathers were missing. A bunch of smaller, less important, feathers fluttered along with the one I had stabbed. I quickly strapped them to the ground with glass and made sure if they were to move, the glass would prick their arms or legs.

Red and Blue fought hard but I was able to reflect a lot of their attacks back onto them using a broken mirror. I had finally beat half of them when the creepy guy with the green eyes got hit by a floating lead pipe. I gasped as they fell, unconscious, putting together who had hit him.

"Are you okay Salena," Hagakure asked, dropping the pipe and disappearing again.

I nodded, "Thanks Hagakure."

"I was going to help Todoroki- Kun but he looked like he could handle himself."

"He was recommended wasn't he?"

She tapped my shoulder, "Yeah, I think so."

"Well, so was I," I groaned.

If that popsicle could handle himself I could handle myself as well. I crunched the glass into 'glitter' and started throwing it into the villains' eyes. I asked Hagakure to gather more glass. She left and soon I had nearly a ton of glass 'glitter'. I was scratching the villains with glass and then blinding them with the 'glitter'.

Hagakure had taken out two villains by hitting them with stray debris whenever she could pick it up, one being Red who woke up and Wings. I was hit more than I actually hit. Bruises lined my sides and my right arm was bent from a fracture in my forearm. I was hit on my arm, causing me to stumble back and grip where the pain was expanding from. I got hit on my leg by the vertical haired villain and tripped onto my back.

We were down to only two villains when I was hit from below. There was another villain who had hidden in the ground until the perfect opportunity. I cursed myself when I realized that the shaking in the ground had been him. His head rammed into my back and bruised me even more. I was blasted into the air by the equipment he used. I screamed again from the pain and started falling to the ground when someone dashed forward and caught me.

It was Terra. I gripped her cape that was now ripped to shreds due to her hulking werewolf form. She held me closer as we landed on the ground. We skidded across but Terra was able to slow us down by using her claws to dig into the ground.

We stopped in front of another pile and I was lifted back into a princess hold. I winced from her touch on my noticed and flipped me around. She quickly examined my back, which was covered in scratches, blood, and bruises from getting hit so much. My veil had been ripped and used to fight the villains off.

Terra made a growling sound and set me down, ordering Hagakure, who could be smelled by Terra, to watch me and tend to my wounds with whatever she could. Hagakure knelt down, covered her legs with a shirt and laid me down on it. I tried to get up but Hagakure held me down.

"I can help Terra," I groaned, "I can-"

"No!" Hagakure whispered, "Terra will be fine. I can feel your ribs. At least two of them are broken. Not bad but it could get worse."

I grunted and nodded, turning my head to watch Terra fight off the rest of the villains. She was absolutely amazing. To be honest, she should've gotten recommended too. She punched the rock man and made his head crack. He got up and ran away with the rest of the villains, including the mole guy.

She walked back to us and picked me up. I glanced down and gripped her suit tighter. She was too tall for me to handle when she got like this. We'd seen her 'werewolf' once or twice but they weren't such good memories. Whoever she was training with was working.

We met up with Todoroki at the edge of the arena and got to the main area only to see something horrible.

"SENSEI!"

Terra's P.O.V (AGE 16)

I tensed as a familiar scent hit my nose. The smell of drunken alcohol and cigarette burns. My father stepped out of the portal as well as someone who almost smelled like Tarran. They were talking with each other as if they were old mates.

I dashed forward and past Thirteen. I was about to follow Mr. Aizawa but a scream drew me back to the class, standing at the top platform. Mame's scream was next and then Alexa's. I finally ran back up the stairs when Victoria's muffled shout echoed in my ears.

I ran around the circle of smoke and shouted to the students inside.

"Are you all okay!?"

Uraraka shouted back, "Get out of here Terra! We'll get out! Go help Aizawa Sensei!"

I gasped. Quickly, before the villain noticed, I ran down the stairs and into the main arena with Mr. Aizawa. He seemed angry that I had followed him. But instead of lecturing me, he let me carry on and kept villains off my back. I was able to help him a bit before I felt a searing heat shock through my arm.

I growled, glanced down, and jumped away from the villain. My arm was already blistering and an angry red. I tapped it and winced in pain.

"HAHA," The villain laughed maniacally, "Hey Mutt! Say hello to your good old Daddy! Where's your respect for the elders!?"

I gasped and stepped back before shaking my head, trying to avoid losing myself to emotions. He was dressed up in a strange costume. It was based off the sun and had a sun decal on the chest.

He didn't have a pot belly anymore and had shaved off his scraggly beard. His black hair was slicked back. A dark purple mask with gold string lining was set on his face comfortably. He was handsome and I would've been proud of his growth had he not been super creepy, an abuser, and oh yeah a villain.

"You aren't my father," I spat at his shoes, "You lost that title when you first hit me."

He laughed, "I'm glad. You were always such a bad little girl. Always such a weakling."

I growled and gave into the urge to kill.

Aizawa P.O.V.

I heard a growl rip through the air behind me. Punching another villain, I got enough time in the confusion to see what was going on. My eyes widened when I recognized that Terra was the one growling.

Her nose and mouth were growing longer and her ears were getting bigger. I watched in amazement as her arms and legs got stronger and furrier. They bent at the knees and her feet grew longer.

Her muscles ripped through her lace sleeves and her thigh high boots. Her hair got longer and her tail got more rough. Her mask fell off of her face and she shook it off. She hunched over on her hands and started circling around a certain villain, flicking away others with her tail.

Suddenly, she jumped towards him. He lifted up his hand and blasted a warm air into her chest. She was thrown off course but quickly recovered and rushed into the villain's stomach. He groaned and used his quirk on her ear. She whipped him off of her head and caught him with her paws. He was slammed into the ground and I struggled to avoid villains. I'd only know these kids for a few weeks but I knew that they would be very important to a future cause.

I shook my head. Terra had transformed into a huge werewolf monster. She could handle the villains. I was more worried about her emotions and how far she would go.

Terra's P.O.V.(AGE 16)

Red and Grey was my world for those few precious seconds. Blood and flesh that I tore into until they dodged away. That man was still conscious and running so I followed him until finally I had him pinned under my paws. Saliva dripped menacingly from my jaws and I was about to deliver the death blow when smoke started curling around his legs.

I jumped off and growled at the smoke.

He sneered at me, a teasing grin, "Goodbye Mutt! I hope Lord Ryoshi's vision includes your death!"

Suddenly, he disappeared with the smoke. I screamed which sounded more like a gravely roar. I was about to attack other villains when my ears picked up someone's scream in the Landslide zone. I sniffed the air. It smelled familiar and the scream echoed again.

Aizawa pushed me towards the arena, "I don't know what you hear kid but go find out! I can handle it here."

I barely managed to understand the word 'go' before I took off into the musty area. I jumped to the tops of garbage piles, listening for another indication as to where the screamer was. There!

They screamed louder this time. A scream full of pain and hurt. I glanced to my right, noticing Todoroki, and bolted left. I got to the top of a pile just in time to see my friend Salena bulleting towards the ground. Her right arm was purple and bent out of shape. I backed up and then ran at full speed towards the edge of the trash pile.

I leaped forward and caught Salena. We landed harshly on the ground, my legs groaning in pain from the quick acceleration. We slid a bit causing me to adjust Salena onto my left shoulder and use my right arm to dig into the ground. We came to a stop in front of a garbage pile. I readjusted her into a princess hold and noticed her wince.

Then I felt something wet. I pulled her closer to my left arm and examined her back. It was exposed and sticky with blood. Her back was bruising quickly and turning tan to purple in a matter of seconds.

I growled and sniffed the air. Someone was beside me and considering that I couldn't see them, I could only assume it was Hagakure from my class. I carefully pulled her in front of me and handed her Salena. She kneeled down, I think, and placed Salena on top of her blanketed knees. I nodded in approval and turned back towards the villains.

Cracking my knuckles I approached the ugly rock. He put his hands up, all cocky like, and threw the first punch. I dodged and pulled my fist back before throwing it into his eye socket and cracking it. He groaned in pain and ran away. I growled angrily at the two other villains, causing them to follow that idiot.

I huffed good riddance and took Salena from Hagakure. We found our way back out to the main arena, running into Todoroki on his way to help Mr. Aizawa. We finally reached the edge of the landslide zone and could see the fights going on.

I froze when I saw a hulking figure standing over Mr. Aizawa. Salena looked up and screamed.

"SENSEII!"

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE 17)(Written by Wendigo)

As the darkness cleared from around me I could see that I wasn't at the USJ entrance anymore. It looked like I had been moved to one of the rescue stations, specifically the storm area. I took time to adjust my armor and look at my surroundings. It looked like a recreation of a part of the city.

After checking to make sure everything was in place I looked at the newest part of my hero costume, a custom made blade that I designed so I could focus my shadows to a point for more precise attacks. I summoned my shadows beneath me and propelled myself upwards to see if I could get a better vantage point.

As I looked around in the thundering rain, I heard a small voice squeaking below me. I looked down to see Mame, below, calling up to me.

I dropped down to meet up with her. After I had made it down safely, I asked, "Mame what are you doing here? Weren't you at the entrance with everyone else?"

She replied, glancing at a small rip in her skirt, "I was but when that villain showed up everything went black and next thing I know I'm here with you."

I took my time to think about the situation. Did that villain teleport us here, how many of us are in here, are there other villains in here as well. I had a little experience with villains but as far as i knew Mame had none.

"Mame lets stick together, we are stronger together than separate," I suggested

"Good idea," She replied.

Then we started down the road, Mame using her quirk to keep up with me, using my shadows as a slide down the street. After a couple of streets I had a strange feeling run down my spine, a feeling that I had thought was long gone. A dread that buried itself deep within my body and made me lose my concentration. I slipped on the slick road and fell face first into the asphalt.

I picked myself back up as the feeling drifted away and lingered in the air. I stared into the dark, dreary sky and thought about the villain I had seen before I was teleported. All I could hope is that I was wrong and he wouldn't come for me while I'm with Mame.

That would put her in danger. I clenched my jaw and glanced around at all the dark corners. I looked down at my closed fist and forced myself to relax it.

"Tarran! Are you ok?!" Mame yelled as she ran over to me.

"Yea I'm fine. I-I just lost my focus for a second, let's keep moving."

She tilted her head to the side in concern. I faked a smile to make her feel better and contemplated telling her before shaking my head subtly. She doesn't need to know right now.

We started up again, being more cautious of the wet cement. I suggested, "I'm going to get a better vantage point on the roofs. Plus, it's faster for me."

"Ok, but be careful up there. If something happens, shout and I'll come running," She said, grabbing my arm reassuringly.

"Alright. I will," I agreed.

I summoned my shadows beneath me and launched myself up high enough to swing from a light pole to a fire exit. Once I got on the roof I leaned over and gave her a thumbs up that I was ok and we started on our way. After a few minutes we stopped to take a breather on the road.

"Dang, the mist is getting pretty thick," she mentioned.

I looked up from where I was sitting and looked around realizing she was right. The mist from the cooling air was getting turned into fog. This didn't sit well with me.

"Mame, get up let's go," I ordered.

"But we just stopped," she complained

"Something doesn't feel right about that fog," I said

After I said that the fog turned dark like smoke and started closing in on us.

"Crap," I said. We'd let our guard down, we shouldn't have stopped. "Mame, let's get back to back so we can watch both sides."

"Ok," she nodded.

As our backs hit each other, I tried seeing through the haze. Whoever made the fog appear was sure to make it so we couldn't see an inch in front of us.

"I can't see anything," I grunted, annoyed.

"Let's try to listen for someone," Mame suggested.

"Good idea," I sighed. I shut my eyes and tried to hold still so I could listen for any sound around us.

*silence*

There. A slight swish of water being moved. A thin layer circling around us. I summoned the shadow from my cloak and had it crash down where I heard the sound. I opened my eyes to see that the smoke had retreated a little bit enough for me to see Mame was still behind me.

"Mame, I want you to run ahead see if you can find anybody else," I whispered.

"What! Why? You can't face a villain on your own," She responded stubbornly.

"It's smarter to take the risk that there are others around us than to stick together at this point," I explained quietly.

"Fine, but I don't like the idea. If you get yourself killed, I'll kill you again."

As she bolted away from me I started running the opposite direction. If it was only him, then he could only chase one of us so I hoped he'd chase me. Once I made it away from the thicker smog, I watched as it started going both ways.

Crap, I thought.

Suddenly, the smoke came together and billowed towards me. Once again I took off running, turning around every once in a while to make sure he was still following me. I threw a couple shadow balls to see if I could slow him down but those didn't seem to work.

I went to my next best option. I turned down an alleyway and started jumping from wall to wall to get to the roof. Once I was up there, I turned to face the smoke. He had found his own way up but that didn't scare me what scared me was the man behind the smoke.

After some time of us just standing there waiting for the other to make a move a voice spoke from the smoke. A garbled monotone voice almost as if it was coming from a walkie talkie.

"Good trick there, kid," It said, "If I didn't know better I would say that's an Eraserhead trick."

How would he know that?

"Oh come on you don't think I wouldn't keep an eye on my own son once he tried getting into a hero school," His laugh was just as bad as I remembered it, no emotion behind it, just a deep garbled laughter erupted from the smoke. I wrapped my hand around the handle of the blade at my waist.

"I'm not your son anymore. You made that perfectly clear when you threw me away," I yelled at him.

I wasn't feeling the same childish fear and dread anymore. Slowly, it was being replaced with a burning rage and hatred. He let the smoke fall away from him letting me see his body. The face that so long ago left me to die in a meadow. I watched as he took off the voice changer and heard the harsh way he said my name.

"Tarran, you are weak, you may have gotten into this by beating up a few robots, but what does that compare to when you face another living person. Would you be willing to take that blade through someone's heart," He asked.

This shook me. We are ordered not to kill but what if it came down to killing someone in order to be a hero?

Mame's P.O.V. (AGE 15)(Written by Me)

I was tumbling, quickly, through the black swampy portal. I rolled up into a fetal position and was thrown out into the dark wet sky. I struggled to open my eyes against the rushing wind. When I did, I saw that the ground was coming closer and closer.

I quickly summoned Sagittarius and shot a grappling arrow at a lamp post. It wrapped around the top and slowed my descant by swinging me forward and back around the top. I yo yoed and held on for my life while the rope slowed down and stopped.

I sighed and carefully dropped down 10 feet to the ground. I dashed into an alleyway and glanced around for any sign of life. Nothing. I followed the alleys around the stormy city and finally saw someone. They were jumping around along the rooftops. At first, I thought they were a villain until I recognized the black shadows following him.

"Tarran," I whisper-yelled.

He glanced down and then just...jumped off the building! I gasped and ran towards where he landed. He rolled onto the ground, his armor clinking simply as he came to a stop.

"Mame what are you doing here? Weren't you at the entrance with everyone else," He asked, putting a hand on my shoulder.

I glanced down at a small rip in my skirt from my descent, "I was but when that villain showed up everything went black and next thing I know I'm here with you."

I decided it would be best if I didn't tell him that I had been plummeting from the sky a few minutes ago.

"Mame lets stick together, we are stronger together than separate."

"Good idea," I nodded.

He took off and I scrambled after him quickly summoning Capricorn's gem. He filled the gem with his speed and helped me keep up with Tarran on the slippery ground. It was actually kind of fun because whenever we came to a hill I would switch out Capricorn for Aries and ride her shield down with her.

After a few minutes I was riding down the hill, trying to catch up to Tarran, when he face-planted into the ground. Aries snickered and slowed down so I could check on him. She disappeared and I ran over to him.

"Tarran! Are you ok?!" I yelled as I reached where he was lying.

"Yea I'm fine. I-I just lost my focus for a second, let's keep moving."

I tilted my head to the side in concern. He faked a smile. I could tell he wanted to tell me something but decided not to push it.

"I'm going to get a better vantage point on the roofs. Plus, it's faster for me."

"Ok, but be careful up there. If something happens, shout and I'll come running," I ordered, grabbing his arm to emphasize my point.

"Alright. I will," he agreed.

He launched himself onto the roof and started running again. I groaned and jogged along the street, conserving my energy. After a few minutes we took a small break. I wiped my brow. This mist was starting to get on my nerves.

"Dang, the mist is getting pretty thick," I mentioned.

"Mame, get up let's go," Tarran ordered, looking up at the sky and glancing at our surroundings..

"But we just stopped," I complained

"Something doesn't feel right about that fog," he said, "Crap."

The mist got darker and darker until it looked more like smoke instead of perspiration.

"Mame, let's get back to back so we can watch both sides."

"Ok," I nodded.

"I can't see anything," Tarran grunted.

"Let's try to listen for someone," I suggested.

"Good idea."

We fell silent. I listened intently. I heard the slight sound of Tarran's cape floating against his armor and I could hear my breath leave my nose. Suddenly, Tarran pushed me a bit further to the left as if he had heard something. His breathing hitched and he grabbed my hand. He squeezed it then, without looking back to me, told me to go.

"Mame, I want you to run ahead see if you can find anybody else," Tarran whispered, breaking the silence.

"What! Why? You can't face a villain on your own," I responded, glancing back at him.

"It's smarter to take the risk that there are others around us than to stick together at this point," He explained quietly. I noted that he sounded pretty desperate to get me out of there.

"Fine, but I don't like the idea. If you get yourself killed, I'll kill you again," I said, a bit harshly to be taken seriously. I squeezed his hand back and pushed off of his palm. I summoned Capricorn and took off faster than I had ever done before. I was sliding down the hills and traveling quickly through the alleyways when I heard the sounds of fighting.

I slid, literally, around the corner and found Tokoyami and Kota from class finishing off the villains. I ran towards them, my hands up to show I was peaceful. I glanced at my small wrist-watch. It had taken nearly 8 minutes to find them.

"Tokoyami! Kota!" I yelled, "Tarran needs help! He sent me to find help!"

Tokoyami and Kota turned to me, Dark Shadow still holding up a villain, and met me halfway. I, in my haste, started pulling them with me and ran towards Tarran when a billow of black smoke erupted near where he was fighting.

"Tarran!"

Tarran's P.O.V. (AGE 17) (Written by Wendigo)

As we stood there, staring each other down, the old feeling of dread crept up my spine making me shudder.

"What? You still scared of me Tarran, that's cute," the *beep* teased.

"Shut the *Beep* up," I yelled.

"Oh, so the boy has a mouth on him, does he? Well, that will change," he threatened.

I stood there, the terror of facing my father running through my veins. I had to calm down, keep cool. I can't take him head on, I need to try and distract or slow him down. I tried bringing my shadows to his feet and sinking him in them. But he jumped over them and pulled a small pocket knife out.

"I'm going to do what I should have done rather than leave you lying in the dirt somewhere."

"What would that be," I demanded.

"Kill you."

He licked his lips like a hungry wolf about to pounce on a gazelle. I froze. Was that what he was trying to do that day? Kill me? Not just throw me out but kill me! He pulled up his mask and turned on his voice changer. The smoke started seeping through his heavy black cloak. It billowed in the wet wind and created the effect that smoke was coming from everywhere.

"We will be ending this Jason, but I will be the one standing," I growled, angrily.

Silence

"*Beeping* say something." I screamed.

He dashed forward with blazing speed, covering his body with smoke so I couldn't see what he was doing. I tried to sidestep his attack but his knife clanged against the side of my chestplate.

I needed to move, not just stand here. So I jumped to the edge of the roof and summoned the shadows to cover my blade. I charged him with the blade level with my chest. Then threw my right arm out for a one handed thrust with my body following through with the motion.

He jumped to the side and flipped his grip on the knife and found a slit in my shoulder armor. He slammed the blade down into the crack and I could feel the blade slice and pierce my muscle. He pulled the blade out and kicked me in the side of my chest. I lost my balance and fell with my full weight against the roof.

I screamed with the pain that seemed to spread all over my body. I clamped a hand over my bicep where he'd cut. Blood was coming out quickly. At this rate I would pass out in nearly an hour.

"That hurt hero boy," The garbled monotone voice pierced through the smoke.

The pain was overwhelming, it coursed through my arm, up and down until it had gone num. I tried to pick myself up and he came over and kicked me to the edge of the roof.

He brought the knife edge to my neck and threw off my helmet, "I want to see the light leave from your eyes when I kill you."

Another chill ran through my body. He placed his hand on my shoulder and pushed his thumb into the open wound. This pain I can't take it. I went to grab his hand but he pushed the blade just enough to remind me where it was.

My mind was split, trying to deal with the pain and find myself an 'out' of this situation. I tried to summon shadows behind him but without a clear line of sight I couldn't focus on what it looked like.

"Don't struggle, it will be less painful if you don't struggle," he advised.

"N-N-No I won't stop fighting," I told him.

I wrapped my legs around his torso and rolled off the two story roof. He was able to make a small cut across my cheek before scrambling to grab the edge, ultimately failing. As I fell I summoned the shadows to hang on to but I just couldn't make them solid. I just kept slowing down till my back hit the ground with a hard crash.

I groaned, trying to roll onto my stomach to get up. I was able to find my footing and stand up. I looked around to see where my father landed. I saw him lying face first on the asphalt. I turned him over and looked him in his eyes.

They were my color. I share the same eyes as the man who hates me. I grabbed his cloak, wincing from the effort, and lifted him up (Dang! Tarran is stronger than I thought (Yuni's Note)) before throwing a right hook into his jaw. Watching and feeling me hit the man that caused me so much pain in my life wasn't what I'd expected.

I thought it would bring me joy, but instead it brought me a different kind of sorrow. A sorrow that I might never have with the family that I once had. I started to tear up at the thought. I let go of his cloak and let myself cry. I held these tears back for so long. I held them behind the fact there was a man to blame for it. But now he was dealt with.

Was that the only reason I entered this school. To find him and make him pay? No, I did this with him as a second thought. I did this to help the people and not get in trouble for getting hunted because I was doing vigilante work. I stood up and turned my back to him.

"It's over, Jason I won," I said

As I limped in the direction Mame ran, to catch up with her, a hand wrapped around my mouth and nose. I struggled until he started pumping smoke into my lungs, I couldn't breath and my sight started to fade. I tried to pull his hands off but his grip was like iron.

Right before I passed out, his hand flew off my face and I fell to the ground. My head lolled to the side to see 2 kids from my class and Mame standing over me, her fist pushed outwards..

"Don't Touch Tarran," Mame yelled.

I could barely hear her as if she was meters away. I tried to reach my hand out but I was too weak. Then I passed out, my hand and arm going limp against Mame's shoe.

Jordan's P.O.V. (AGE 16)(Written by Me)

I scratched around in the darkness, trying to sweep it away or tear the shield from my eyes. I felt the wind surge around me and quickly reacted to grab a building's edge. I cried out in pain as my fingers grip the rough cement of the roof. I look around and take in my surroundings like Senseii told us to whenever we're somewhere we don't know.

I struggled to climb back up but finally I lifted my legs over the top. It was two feet high so I just rolled onto the ground. The little bit of shade felt good against my back after the effort. I looked at the roof and noticed a small door jutting from below.

It was a maintenance door. Something that only a janitor could access so he could clean the leaves. I stood up quickly and snuck over to the door. I turned the knob as slow as I could and tried to look in but the door was kicked open.

I rolled sideways and narrowly avoided a crossbow bolt. A group of people walked out, led by a woman holding a whip dangerously. She had long blonde hair that reached her ankles, braided. Her eyes were black, empty, and deep. She was currently pushing the crossbow back through the socket.

I shivered. What a creepy quirk, although I can't really say that given my heritage. She chuckled and looked around the rooftop.

"We only have to stop this little girl," she asked, narrowing her eyes even more.

She was wearing a one-strap leotard that had streaks of see through lace around her waist. She licked her lips like a predator and started doing hand signals to the other villains. There were about six unless you count on with two heads as seven.

There were two girls and four, er, five boys. The other girl was slinking closely towards the leader. She had needles surrounding her body. She pulled some away as she leaned against the leader.

The leader glanced at her and directed the other villains to surround me. Two-head went around behind me and hit their hands against each other. He had two arms on each side but only one leg on either side. They were wearing a simple leather jacket, black tank top, and loose motorcycle pants.

The other guys looked somewhat normal. One had two irises on one eye and none on the other and his tongue was split down the middle, no scar tissue proving it was part of his quirk.

Another had spikes down his arms and looked ready to shred me apart. The last guy looked like an average guy so he was either quirkless or he didn't have a physical quirk. He was wearing black sunglasses and a black crop-top that revealed a wispy looking tattoo.

He was wearing average levi jeans and sneakers. His shoulders were covered with shoulder pads and he wore fingerless gloves. His shady brown hair was shaved along the sides and he had a streak of blue through it.

"Hmm," he sighed, "this does seem a bit easy doesn't it, Chi?"

"Don't use my actual name you idiot," Chi snapped.

Spikes and Eyes went around my right and left leaving only above me free. Cactus girl giggled, a shrill sound that made my eardrums pound harder. Her hair was cut short and close to her chin. It was an eerie color of green, the color practically dripping into her skin.

She was wearing a leotard with holes randomly spread throughout it. She was wearing sandals and looked almost like an average person who was at the beach for break. Her eyes pierced my facade of courage and sent a shiver down my spine.

"Shame that she isn't on our side," the guy chuckled, looking me up and down, "She's gorgeous."

I blushed and turned away defiantly, "What are you villains doing here? U.A. is for students in training."

Right real smart Jordan

Chi chuckled, "Oh, that's why we're here. U.A. has some...past references with our master that has made him dislike all of you very much."

"Who-"

"We won't tell you, dummy," Cactus cackled, "Sweetheart, can we get on with it. I'm bored."

Chi smiled down at the shorter girl, "Of course, Love. Then we can get back to the stolen condo."

I sensed something behind me and ducked quickly. Two-Head was thrown over me by the force of his punch. Spikes jumped into the fight and started stabbing around me. I dodged, barely, and kept up with them.

Eyes pulled an upper cut and threw my glasses off. I really needed to get those tightened. I could feel the quirk "wake up" and start working. I forced my gaze to the ground and tried to avoid the hits that way.

I got hit in the left shoulder. I was sent to the right and was caught by Spikes. Two-Head was about to punch me when I used my feet to kick his left face and throw Spikes off balance. Spikes was thrown over the side and fell to the next level before he got teleported away.

Five bodies left, that's how I chose to count the villains. Chi started whipping my feet, making me always move around. It was tiring but I kept my gaze down. Until finally, Cactus rushed forward and grabbed my cheeks, forcing my gaze up. I made contact with her eyes and she tensed from the pain.

She released me and I tried to cut off the pain. She screamed, causing Chi to freeze. Cactus passed out and left me with Eyes, Two-Head, Chi, and Sunglasses, which was kind of ironic.

Chi looked like she went crazy and started pulling a sword out of her eye socket. I shivered again, something 'bout that just ain't right. She attacked quicker than before, probably angry that I'd just brought down her whatever Cactus was to her.

I slammed my fist and palm together. It was time to get serious about this again and start using my quirk. I met Chi head on and punched her in the gut. Eyes punched me in the back. I swung around and noticed him try to move out of the way but narrowly missed his "out" window.

I made contact and sent him spinning to the floor. Chi tried to get up but she gasped and fell back to the ground. Eyes and Two-Head rushed me from either side. I flipped backwards and landed a few feet from the edge. Quickly, I looked up and stared them all in the eyes. Eye boy went down first, probably trying to even out the pain with his irises not realizing he'd carried the same pain into his other eye.

Two-Head struggled with the pain for quite a bit. One of his heads went limp while the other tried to keep standing.

"I-I've seen this quirk before," He whimpered.

I gasped, "What?"

"T-The Sighted K-Killer. One of the Best villains among us! Too bad he's locked up."

"Well you may have seen his power, but these new generations are a bit stronger."

I looked him in the eyes again and he went down. I glanced at the last guy. He had his arms uncrossed in astonishment. He smiled and pulled off his sunglasses, eyes closed. When he opened them a blue electric field surrounded us. I jumped away from the edge and avoided getting shocked by the arching energy.

He chuckled, "You're just like me! You had a horrible Villain for a grandfather and I had a horrible Hero for one!"

I was stunned to hear him admit it. He kept his gaze around me, circling to keep the walls up. I imagined he could control his quirk better than I could. I dodged a strike as he glanced at my feet and sent the energy towards me.

His eyes followed me more and finally got a hit on me. I grimaced and quickly got close enough to see his eye color.

Surprisingly, they weren't blue. They were a faded grey, storming with the reflections of lightning. At first, my quirk didn't work against him but then he stared me back in the eyes and our quirks convulged. He was sent back, since his quirk was more destructive. I scraped my nails against the cement, trying to slow down and get to safety. I stood up quickly, clutching my sore fingers. They were red and scratched with a few small cuts but otherwise fine.

I walked to where he had set his glasses and picked them up since Eyes had broken mine. I put them on and quickly ran over to the door, leaving the guy behind me, groaning.

I was running through the dark hallways, dodging the wires that were hanging from the ceiling and rubble. I was around five floors up so it took a while to finally get to the ground level again.

Then an explosion caught my attention in the building next to mine. I groaned and ran a couple of yards to the building. Whoever was here was on the second floor so I carefully creeped up the broken staircase. I looked into the room and recognized the students.

That cruel Bakugou guy that kept hurting Izuku and Salena was exploding all the villains while Kirishima, I think, knocked them out and avoided Bakugou's explosion. They beat all the villains and clapped the dust off their hands, conversing about their next option.

I felt something sharp rip my costume fabric. I glanced behind me at the spiked villain from before pointing a spiked into my costume and reaching for my neck. I squeaked nervously as he forced me forward into the room. Bakugou nearly exploded both of us from adrenaline but Kirishime shielded me.

"Bakubro," he shouted, "Stop! You'll hurt Jordan before you hurt the villain."

"It was her fault for getting caught like a horse on a lead," He shouted.

I winced at his raised voice and tried to calm down and think my way through this. A spike at my back and a hand around my throat. Bakugou was ready to explode and Kirishima was glancing around to find something that could help me out. I winced as an idea came into my head. I argued with myself for a bit before eventually giving into the idea.

"Bakugou," I shouted, getting his angry attention, "Blow up my glasses."

"HUH!?" he shouted, angry at being demanded.

"JUST DO IT YOU LABRADOR," I yelled.

He chuckled crazily and shot forward, exploding just below my neck. The glasses exploded and fell onto the ground in a million pieces. Though it hurt, I yanked Spikes over my back and threw him to the ground. I stared at his scleras as he tried to avoid eye contact and knew it still hurt.

I grimaced as he screamed for help. Soon he fell still and stopped resisting my grip. I sighed sadly and stood up off of him. Kirishima and Bakugou stared at me silently. I averted my gaze and walked out of the room, quickly. Those looks were too familiar. The look of fear when they saw my quirk in use.

"Hey Jordan, wait up," Kirishima shouted, hopping down two stairs at a time.

I stopped and glanced at his hair, avoiding his eyes of course, "What's up?"

"That was cool! What did you do back there?"

I clenched my fists. I had been hoping that he wouldn't ask that. I sighed, "Um, my quirk is called Pain's Eye…"

"Hmmm. Sounds, um, painful?"

I chuckled tiredly, "For other people it is. Anybody really, well except me."

He tilted his head, confused while I just continued walking. Tears filled my eyes as I remembered the text I had gotten before the trip.

"Your request has been fulfilled. You are being allowed to see Miru Vakus. Quirk: Pain's Eye. Crime: Murder and torture of 4 people."

Alexa's P.O.V.(AGE 16)

I stumbled forward and fell into the cold water. I hugged my body and gasped as my head breached the service. I started treading water and opened my eyes to see some sort of fish face in front of me. I screamed and punched him, causing an explosion that blasted me backwards a bit.

I ran into another villain and punched him too. I was blasted backwards by my explosion again and rammed into the side of something hard. A rope was thrown in front of me. I grabbed it and was quickly pulled up onto the boat. I hit the railings and grabbed them.

Holding on with one hand and placing my boots against the boat side, I let go with one hand and looked down at the villain. Someone pulled me up and I stumbled into the wall.

"Ow," I whined.

"I am so sorry Alexa," Izuku stammered.

"It's okay Izuku," I said waving my hand up and down, "It was my fault for not getting over the railings."

I looked around. We were with Tsuyu and Mineta. He had his arms crossed, trying to stop from shaking. He glanced over the railing again and dodged just in time for a trident thing to come flying up and fall back into the water.

Izuku and Tsuyu crouched down to avoid the tridents and we started talking about how we could get out of this situation. I sat against the railing and thought about it.

"I got nothing," I groaned.

"Yeah," Mineta agreed, "My quirk can only really stick to things and it doesn't even work on me; I just bounce off it."

I sighed, "This is a bit of a pickle we have, ain't it?"

Tsuyu nodded, "Kero, We are in trouble."

Izuku put his hand on his chin in thought and started muttering. Mineta and I just watched as Tsuyu, with her small inputs, formed a risky plan with Izuku. Mineta was holding his arm and staring at the water, fear in his eyes. I leaned towards the boat edge and got another glimpse of the villains.

They were watching us like a predator watching its prey. I shivered away from the railing and understood what he was afraid of. He was scared we would die here. I shook my head and slapped my cheeks softly.

Mineta watched me do this and glanced at his hands. He forced them down to his side and gazed at the water again. Izuku and Tsuyu were still talking when suddenly Mineta grabbed something in his hair and threw it into the water. I watched it arch and land with a simple 'plop'.

Then threw more and more. Izuku mistook it for panic but watched the villains try to swim away from them. Izuku noticed as well and quickly jumped over the railing. I jumped to grab him but he launched off the side and aimed at a spot of water where the villains had left an area open.

"Tsuyu! Mineta!" Izuku shouted as he clutched his wrist. Tsuyu grabbed Mineta and launched off the side of the boat. I ran to the bow and jumped off the front. I was about to hit the water when I twisted and kicked the boat as hard as I could.

I was good at using my hands and blowing up but a lot of times, my foot wouldn't explode and launch me. Luckily, this was one of the times that it worked. I made contact with the hull and got thrown towards the edge of the arena. I made it about 7 feet away from the barrier and quickly swam to the shore.

I was about 10 or 11 feet away from where the others had landed so I quickly stumbled over to them. Mineta was bleeding purple from his scalp and touching the top to check how bad it was. I guessed that Mineta had used more of his quirk on the trip.

I grabbed my soaked scarf and pulled it off my neck. Wringing it as best I could, I watched the water pour out. Izuku readjusted his elbow pads to quickly fix up his hand. I looked at his fingers. It was bent and broken with some gaining colors.

Tsuyu seemed better off than the boys but other than that she had a small scrape on her knee, probably from the landing. I turned my head to follow Izuku's gaze. Aizawa was in the center, fighting maybe twenty villains at a time. I was about to get out when Mineta stopped me.

Izuku was mumbling again, "There're too many of them. Of course he's more than holding his own out there, but it's too much for him. He knew that, but he jumped in to protect us."

Mineta sighed, "Midoriya don't tell me you'd be that dumb."

I subconsciously nodded. Izuku had always seen the best in people rather than just looking at the wrong. For example, his friendship with Bakugou. He didn't give up on him and Izuku likely would never give up on saving someone in a dire situation.

"I'm not saying we should dive into the fight," Izuku reassured Mineta, "I'm just saying that we should keep our eyes peeled for an opening.

I clasped my hands, the thick gloves making it a bit uncomfortable, together, "I just hope Aizawa sensei can handle himself."

We were forced to watch our sensei slowly lose.

Victoria's P.O.V. (AGE 15)

I screamed and straightened my body. I screwed my eyes shut and waited for the tumbling to end. Then I cracked an eye open. I was like 50 feet in the air and still falling! I looked around and saw a couple of other classmates around the U.S.J., falling.

I shook my head and focused on my own dilemma. Quickly, I noticed the flames around my arena. Whipping around the buildings, the flames reached for me and begged to burn me up. I rejected my magnetized calves and threw them to the ground. They landed and stopped moving.

I reversed the magnetism and was thrown off course again. I started falling faster and spiraling. Quickly, I righted myself and aimed towards my feet. I threw my forearm and started slowing my descencent, using the buildings around me.

I was still going too fast so I reversed the pull again and started slowing down before again I reversed the pull and eventually was angled to hit the ground.

I got down and used them as a spring to take the shock of the fall. I skidded across the cement, pulling my arms back and using the buildings to stop my skidding.

I stopped, finally, and straightened up. The city was licked with flames and steamy hot. As far as I could tell no one was directly around me except for a few shouts and crumbling sounds.

I ran towards the noises and found Ojiro fighting a crowd of villains. I quickly ran towards the crowd but he must've not seen me because he was doing some epic hit-and-run tactics.

I shouted at some of the villains, "Hey idiots! Come get me losers! You all are cowards for advancing on ONE student!"

Maybe seven of the sixteen villains turned on me and very quickly started chasing me.

"Oh frick-"

I started booking it opposite Ojiro and ran towards the back of the arena. Someone threw a discus at my knees. It went straight through and I held back a small giggle from the tickling sensation. The discus flew back and the villain caught it, confused why it hadn't incapacitated me.

I clicked my heels, teasing them to catch me and apprehend me quickly. One started extending his arms and tried to grab me around the torso. His arms came around and locked in front of me. I crouched down quickly, narrowly avoiding the hands and quickly switched the magnetism in my legs.

I was launched up and quickly switched the magnetism again in time to land on the roof. My legs were still catching up so I had to barrel roll onto the roof and attached my calves on the way.

I blew my bangs out of my hair and quickly jumped from building to building, hopefully losing some villains in the alleys. Soon there were only five chasing me along the roof, discus boy being one of them.

He threw a discus again and this time I jumped on it. He pulled the discus back along with a right hook from me. I flew over his fainting body and landed behind the villains. They were momentarily surprised but quickly wore it off.

I gasped and started studying my opponents. One was the stretchy arm dude and another looked just like his twin so I figured he probably had a similar quirk. Then a really large girl punched her fist and visible waves of sound blasted towards me. She rubbed her head and a high pitched squeal nearly reached me before I ducked behind an AC unit.

Then the last guy was just in front of me. I flinched and quickly threw my arms up, maybe forgetting that my elbows weren't intact with them. His punch ran through my elbows and hit me in my shoulder. I growled and upper-kicked him towards the edge of the building.

The other villains were ready for me to pop up from the unit because instantly an arm, foot, and wave of something screeched towards me. I avoided the foot and arm but the sound hit me and knocked me onto the next roof.

I coughed out the pain, figuratively of course, my body was still screaming, and stumbled up on my feet. The woman screamed and a funnel of black waves rushed towards me. I saw the end and quickly ran towards it instead of away.

I spun and was able to endure the excess noise from inside the funnel. The villains jumped over to where I was and engaged with me. Legs, arms, sound, and you know a full body flashed all around me. I dodged and kicked back but I was running out of energy quickly.

As a final escape attempt I spun around, throwing my arms in a wide arching circle. My hands punched Arms and Sound lady, knocking them off the building, hopefully unconscious.

Foot immediately got angrier and started kicking like crazy. I just dodged until he accidentally kicked Teleport or whatever dude off the building. I shouted as he kicked behind me and missed by and inch.

"DUDE," I shouted, dodging more kicks, "SO NOT COOL TO KICK ME IN THE BUTT!"

"You threw my brother off the building! You deserve more than a kick to your rear end," he demanded, finally getting a kick in.

I was pushed back into another AC unit. It bent under my force and he quickly approached me. I shielded my face from his quick and precise high-heeled kicks until I heard a groan. I peeked out and saw Ojiro standing over me, hand poised to help me up.

I sighed, "Thanks for the save, Ojiro."

"You're welcome," he responded, pulling me up surprisingly quick, "You got the villains off my tail. (Hehe get it? He has a tail? No-Oh-Okay)."

I stood up and dusted off my legs and sleeves. He looked away, blushing at my costume's openness. I chuckled and teased him a bit while we walked back to the main arena. We finally got there just as All Might burst through the entrance doors. I glanced around the arena and found most of them around the main arena, watching the fight continue on.

Rosa's P.O.V. (AGE 16)

I stumbled around the small black circle, trying to avoid touching the sides. Uraraka pulled me out of the circle and was quickly grabbed by Ida, who then pulled us into the air. I squeaked and grabbed Uraraka's leg. I hate heights.

We landed and quickly turned back on the villain. I looked around. My entire friend group had disappeared and Terra was already jumping down the front steps to help Sensei. I gasped and sat on the ground. There was Uraraka, me, Ida, Sato, Sero, Mina, and Shoji-kun as well as our instructor, Thirteen.

He turned around, "Class President! You need to run and get help!"

Ida stood up straight, "The class president can't just abandon his class!"

I groaned, "Come one Ida! We're in trouble here!"

"He said "Go"," Sato yelled, pushing Ida towards the emergency exit, "There are alarms outside so the villains must only be causing trouble in here."

Sero, I think, added in, "So if you make it out, they can't follow you! Shake off that mist man with that speed of yours!" (Hehe "Mist Man" pfft).

"Just like in the cafeteria," Uraraka continued the encouragement.

"We can provide all the support you need! And we will," Mina nodded, clenching her jaw in fear.

"DO IT!"

I stood up and clasped a hand on his shoulder, "If anyone can do it, it's you."

He nodded. The "mist man" made a sarcastic remark about him being able to hear our plan but we all disregarded him.

"It hardly matters if you overheard us," Thirteen shouted, releasing his black hole quirk, "You can't stop us!"

I clenched my fist and hunched down, ready to lunge at the villain. I activated my minor second quirk so my nails would grow sharper and faster.

My second quirk, Catty Claws, comes from my mother who can change her limbs to resemble a cat's. Catty Claws is almost always active but I can speed it up if the need arises. Basically, my nails grow faster than other people's. They grow a centimeter everyday and I have to cut them every week, but I don't have to cough up hairballs when I use it so I think I got the lucky side of mom's genes.

I scraped the cement floor to make them sharper and got ready to pounce when the villain started forming behind Thirteen.

"Thirteen," I shouted but it was too late for him to stop his quirk. The villain was using Thirteen's quirk against him! Soon his back, costume and all, was warped away. Thirteen slumped over and Sato urged Ida to go.

He started running towards the exit but the villain started forming in front of Ida. I started charging forward to follow Ida and protect him when Shoji jumped over the forming portal and covered it as best he could. Shoji shouted for him and me to keep running.

I nodded. He wanted me to get Ida out safely. I wasn't nearly as fast as Ida but I could keep close to him by using trees outside. I was lagging behind a small bit when the villain followed us again. Uraraka dashed forward and lunged at the villain. I was about to condone her when I saw a glint of metal.

She jumped up and grabbed it.

"I'm not sure why, but if you're wearing this thing then you must have a real body in there!" She activated her quirk and threw him into the air," Now, GO IDA!"

Sero threw his tape onto the metal piece and threw the villain into the air and onto a wall. Ida reached the door and I jumped through just before it closed behind us.

"Ida," I shouted, clambering up a tree, "Do you remember where the school is?"

He finally noticed me and nodded solemnly. I ran among the trees, diving and ducking into the branches. I found little shortcuts to keep up with him like cutting corners or jumping from a higher point in a tree to get further.

Halfway through our venture, Ida saw All Might on the trail, heading towards the Simulation Building. Ida quickly warned him what was happening and quickly continued on his quest. I looked back a little and noticed that All Might looked very angry and scared.

I finally caught up to Ida again a few minutes later. We ran maybe 3 miles or so before we reached the school. Ida burst in, glanced from side to side and took off towards Principal Nezu.

"I'll get Recovery Girl and all the teachers that are free on this side," I shouted, running the opposite direction of him. I was sliding through the halls and parkouring off walls to avoid students when I finally arrived at the nurse's office. I barged in, not caring there was a student getting his back fixed.

"Recovery...Girl," I panted.

"It'd better be big if you had to barge in so hastily. You nearly killed the poor boy of a heart attack," She responded, handing an extra uniform to the shaking boy with a chicken leg and shooing him off to dress.

"U.S.J. is under attack," I gasped, "Ida is getting...The principal and the teachers on the right...All Might was told on the way here.… We'll need your help to heal the injuries…"

Recovery Girl nodded grimly, "Alright. I'll see if I can't save anybody. Amajiki, child, could you please shut the office for me?"

The boy squeaked. I took it as a "yes" and bolted out the door again while Recovery Girl started hobbling towards the front of the school. I found all the teachers that were free on the first floor before Nezu finally announced that he needed all the free teachers.

I got back to the front courtyard and joined Ida in front of the teachers.

"I got everyone I could from the left wing," I whispered. He nodded a thanks, eager to get going and save his fellow classmates.

Finally, Nezu ordered everyone to move and multiple heroes started joining us along the way. We made the trek back quicker than the first time because some heroes had had the time to gather vehicles to carry groups of heroes.

We arrived a few minutes after All Might threw the door off its hinges. It blew onto the ground and revealed the large group of heroes.

All Might clenched his jacket in his fist and growled angrily at the villains and students, "FEAR NOT! I AM HERE!"
