AN: FOR ALL THOSE WHO HAVE CONTINUED TO READ THIS FAR AND NOT GIVE UP AFTER THE FIRST TWO CHAPTERS I THANK YOU. AS SOME OF YOU MENTIONED AIZAWA DOUBLE STANDARDS FOR HEROES I WILL TELL YOU NOW. I AM GLAD TO SEE PEOPLE AGREEING WITH ME AS MANY PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK AIZAWA IS A GREAT PERSON OR SOMETHING. FOR ANY AIZAWA FANS I KNOW THIS MAY TRIGGER YOU, BUT I ASK YOU TO LOOK AT THE QUIRK APPREHENSION TEST AND TELL ME HOW IZUKU DID NOT GET AT LEAST CLOSE TO TENTH PLACE WITH HIS PHYSICAL ABILITIES UNLESS AIZAWA PERSONALLY MESSED WITH THE SCORE. THEN AGAIN KOHEI HORIKOSHI DOES SEEM TO FOCUS TOO MUCH ON SYMBOLISM AND FORGETS BASIC LOGIC BUT THAT COULD JUST BE MY OPINION. IN ANY CASE ENJOY THIS CHAPTER AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF IZUKU BIG REVEAL.

IZUKU MIDORIYA POV
Surrounded by enemies I stood shoulder to shoulder with Tetsu and Kendo as we were at the forefront of the pack with my only friend who transferred from 1-A to 1-B with me at my back. Even so I saw no reason to worry for once in my life as I had my classmates, my friends by my side. Giving a subtle nod to Tetsu and Kendo after locking eyes with each of them by means of a sideways glance getting nods and smiles from both of them. "All right everyone… let show them that we are heroes, NOT THEIR PREY!" I told everyone as we ran into the fight before us in groups.
UA
THIRD PERSON POV
Izuku was nervous to say the least as he walked through the front gates fortunately not getting anywhere near as many catcalls as he did yesterday. Though he did duck behind some bushes when he spotted Bakugo, when he got out of his hiding spot Kendo was there to greet him. "Hey Midoriya, why are you hiding in the bushes?" Kendo asked them in hopes she would be understood by them. Izuku not wanting to risk Bakugo hearing despite the wide gap between them that he knew would make it impossible simply pointed to them. Following his finger and line of sight she spotted who he was pointing and recalled how rude Bakugo was to her in the test area they shared. "I got it, so that guy is a bully huh. But don't worry I'm here for you so let's hurry to class!" She said grabbing his hand normally not bold enough to do this to a guy, but since she thought Izuku was a girl she did not hesitate to do so.
A bit embarrassed to be holding a girl's hand like this, he had to concentrate to keep himself from blushing and stuttering like he normally would. Getting to the classroom everyone was there already and greeted them, well they greeted Kendo anyway as none of them knew who he was or why he was here. "Kendo who is this?" Ibara Shiozaki asked her curious as to why this green haired girl with freckles was with here as they already had a class of twenty.
Ibara however would not get answer immediately as one of the class foreign exchange students ran up to the two grabbing a hold of both of Izuku hands with her own. ""ARE YOU JOINING OUR CLASS!"" Pony exclaimed happy at the idea that she could speak her native tongue freely with someone else in the class like she did back home.
""I am, though originally, I was in class 1-A… but that is a bit of a long story."" Izuku laughed awkwardly still not quite wanting to discuss it in detail with anyone other than his mom or All Might right now. They said they would talk to him after school today, and that All Might was told by the principal what more or less happened.
For everyone else other than Kendo they were shocked to find another half American half Japanese student in the school like Pony. "To make things a bit simple as it is a bit of a long story and class will be starting soon. All I will say for now is that they used to be part of 1-A but were discriminated against by their teacher and he tried to expel them. So now they will be in our class." Kendo told them just as their teacher came in.
"All right everyone except Midoriya take a seat, I need to bring them to talk with the principal so homeroom today will be spent deciding on your class rep while I have that meeting. It looks like everyone is here so I will skip roll call today. Come on Midoriya we need to go over some specifics with the principal about how to proceed." Vlad King said making sure he said the last sentence in english so they could understand. It seemed that between his father working in America, his perfect english scores, and the fact that Kendo told him they only spoke english so far both principal as well as teacher assumed Izuku was like Pony. Surprised they knew english so well he figured they were just speaking english much more than his last school since heroes needed to learn it as it was the most common language on the planet. However, if Principal Nezu and Vlad King had looked past his middle school they would have already realized that Izuku was born in Japan. This little tidbit of information would be discovered only after they finally talked with him so
"But sir should they not be here to vote with us about this?" Monoma asked his teacher genuinely feeling bad for the girl for those snobs in 1-A treating her like dirt.
"It's ok, really." Izuku told them not sure why everyone looked impressed with them. The reason they were impressed with him was that they assumed Japanese was his second language like it was for Pony. As such his clear pronunciation without any hint of an accent was impressive in their eyes. Agreeing to it since Izuku himself said so they let their teacher and new classmate go, barely getting the class representatives decided before launching into another kind of debate.
UA NEZU OFFICE
THIRD PERSON POV
Sitting across from the mouse principal was Izuku with his new teacher Vlad King beside the principal both giving him assuring smiles. ""My apologies Young Midoriya that this is how we are meeting for the first time, I was hoping that we would meet under more pleasant circumstances."" Nezu said happy to see some of the tension leave from the young 'lady' sitting before him. Both him and Vlad King had decided to speak english during this meeting to make sure she fully understood them. ""I can assure you that you will not have an expulsion on your record, just a normal transfer from 1-A to 1-B so your record as a student won't be damaged. Well, any further anyways, my apologies if this is personal but I noticed something very odd in your records from middle school."" Nezu asked her, worried about how her past school experience may have twisted her up on the inside. What had him worried was that in their file she had disciplinary issues on an almost weekly basis since middle school. All of these incidents stated they were the one attacking other students out of jealousy of their quirks. More specifically Katsuki Bakugo was named in almost all of them as the victim who simply defended himself. But with what they saw in the entrance exam and what Aizawa described during the quirk assessment tests of his this made no sense what so over. It was also odd that if they were supposedly attacking the other students so often then how were they not expelled but only given bad marks on their records.
""Well, the thing is…"" Izuku froze for a moment before relaying to them what he told his mother about his middle school experience and Bakugo. Not noticing their faces as he was focused on keeping it together, he did not see the shock and horror on their faces very similar to his mother's own expression.
Nezu and Vlad were to put it simply disturbed that this middle school almost let someone as mentally unstable as Katsuki Bakugo apply with staff even recommending him. Then again all of those recommendations were clearly lies when they noticed the discrepancies earlier with Midoriya. But to think that this person went as far as to torture someone for years like they did and not see what they were doing was wrong, wanting to become a hero, this had disturbed them greatly. But when Izuku got to the part about the gender on the form being changed by them they focused again realizing something. ""My apologies but… you're a boy? Then why did you wear the female uniform without complaints?"" Vlad King asked them as that was the one thing that he really could not fathom a reason why.
When Izuku told them about his neighbor and the security guard they asked for the name of the neighbor and remembered the student. Now understanding why, they had so many absences on their record now made sense… and also meant they needed to call them and apologize for this. Nezu also made sure to fire the security guard at the end of the day and make sure word got around for what he did and hid from them assuring they ruined his career in security for anywhere. ""My apologies you had to suffer like that, I never approved of such a thing, but I will make sure you will not need to deal with them again. The uniform will take a few days so until then you can wear the gym uniform as we always keep a few spares of every size for students in case they damage them during quirk practice. I will have your new student id ready by the end of the day so come to my office after school to pick it up."" Nezu told them, going into the system and adjusting their student file and sending the info to the library to begin making his new student id.
Sadly, for them, Izuku was not done. ""Sorry to tell you this but, my mom said she would be coming in Friday to talk to you no matter what."" Izuku told them seeing the momentary dread on their faces before they composed themselves. This was when Vlad King stepped up to tell him what was to come.
""Since you just got your quirk, I will help you after school starting the day after tomorrow to do extra training to help you learn how to use it. I know that your body will likely require months to adjust to it. So that is why we will only do serious training in two weeks so that way if you break your arm or leg Recovery Girl can heal you before the sports festival. Tomorrow, she will give you a quirk examination to help me figure out how exactly your quirk works."" Vlad King said with as much confidence as he could muster after hearing about their disturbing past.
Unsure of how to feel about this as he did not want to leak All Might secret the hero had walked in, using his skinny form. "All Might!" Izuku exclaimed before covering his mouth.
The blond hero simply laughed at this waving their hand in a way so as to indicate for them not to worry about it. "The entire staff already knows of my circumstances so don't worry, Nezu told me what happened yesterday with Aizawa. So, I will assist Vlad here in training you to control your new power." All Might told them causing Izuku to relax but causing the other two people in the room to raise an eyebrow at him. "What?" All Might asked them not knowing why they were staring at him like that.
"As much as I am curious about your relationship to them as you seem close. I am more curious at the moment as to why you are speaking japanese with them when you are even better with english than Present Mic." Vlad King said unsure of why he would not speak in the language most comfortable to them.
"Well, is it not natural to speak with someone in their first language when it is your first language as well?" He asked the blood quirked hero back in confusion. This had caused them all one by one to look at Midoriya.
"… It is true I am just as fluent in english as I am in japanese, but everyone else speaking english to me so I assumed I had to respond back in english." Izuku told them causing a new conversation to occur about the language mix up. Finding out why he had spoken english to Kendo when he first met it all seemed too ridiculous to be true if they were outsiders to this situation. Izuku also freaked out when he was told his status still said quirkless and he realized he forgot to update it. Nezu assured them however that it was no problem for him to fix as it was probably better to do it through the school then as a random individual calling the government agency in charge of these things.
"Anyway, why exactly do you two know each other so well?" Vlad King asked them now partly expecting something crazy like they were secretly father and son. It was then he got the tale of how the two met originally, shocked that Midoriya moved on instinct to save someone, especially that hell spawn torturing him. Seeing now why Nezu said All Might would help made sense, it also made sense how they thought they could get into UA without a quirk.
With all of that done they sent Midoriya away with Vlad King back to class as Nezu spoke with All Might about Midoriya past. Nezu had never seen the gentle giant of a man before him, virtuous enough to almost be called a saint, get so angry before. Though he understood why, after all Midoriya was his successor, the next symbol of peace, and therefore his responsibility to oversee with the time he had left. Telling him to keep calm and teach 1-A normally he told them to go as he would be calling Aizawa and Bakugo to his office shortly.
When Aizawa and an irate Bakugo came in he could tell Aizawa knew roughly what would occur. "Greetings you two, now take a seat as I have something important to talk about." Nezu told them, scaring Aizawa as he always offered tea to people. Unless of course they had done something to incur his wrath. "I am about to tell you what I have been told, and you young Bakugo will tell me if it is true or not." He said going into what Midoriya had described to him but keeping their name out of it.
Aizawa was visibly shaken which was an extremely rare sight, however Nezu expected this along with the growling response from Katsuki Bakugo. "DID THAT QUIRKLESS DEKU TRY TO GET SYMPHATHY FROM YOU BY LYING! ALL I DID WAS PUT THE WEAKLING IN HIS PLACE SINCE HE OBVIOUSLY CAN'T BE A HERO WITHOUT A QUIRK!" Bakugo yelled at them essentially admitting to what he did. However, this was worse than simply admitting it as he made it clear he was racist towards the quirkless. Aizawa actually regretted almost thinking someone like this had what it took to be a hero.
"I will give you this note to give to your parents, you are not allowed to come back to school till after I have had a meeting with you and both your parents. Except for this Friday any day before or after will work for me, so they are welcomed to come anytime once the school day starts." Nezu told him, as Bakugo blew up a chunk off his desk in rage at this.
"YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! I'M GOING TO BE THE NEXT NUMBER ONE HERO!" Bakugo got up to the principal face screaming at them. Unfortunately for them Aizawa could not pull them away or warn them in time before Nezu struck. Literally as he gave the young man a stun gun to the neck causing them to fall on the floor convulsing for a minute before picking themselves back up.
"I can, and will do so, especially after how you just threatened your principal like you did. Despite what your middle school taught you I will tell you how the real-world works. Your quirk is not that special compared to other heroes; you are a dime a dozen that can easily be replaced in this industry. And keep in mind that with everything you have done to Midoriya you could easily get yourself sent to prison for what you have done if they decide to press charges so I would be careful if I were you." Nezu finished his speech putting the note in his front pocket of his uniform jacket before getting Aizawa to drag the shocked student out of there. Whether or not Nezu skipped over the difficult process of how the courts would have to go through to charge him as an adult despite his young age… well oops perhaps it was possible the intelligent animal could forget something from time to time, or this could just be another game of his to play with the parents when they come in to talk with him?
UA CLASS 1-B
THIRD PERSON POV
After they decided their class reps Kendo who knew them already, well a bit more than everyone else anyone was at front. With Pony beside her as they felt having the other half Japanese half American give them her opinions would be invaluable. Kendo made sure to let them know the full story as she knew it, which was not entirely wrong so it was close enough that when they would find out the truth, they would likely not change their minds. "Okay everyone, class 1-A is probably going to target her for bullying and by extension us from now on. So, make sure not to wander the halls outside of class hours without at least two other classmates with you. Agreed?" Kendo told them to make sure they all stayed safe from the other class, all of them agreed. "The second issue is helping her get use to school here in Japan as unlike Pony she had a really rough first experience so be gentle with her." She told them all again receiving agreements from them not knowing the truth of Izuku long school life in Japan. Pony for her part was going to do everything they could to support their fellow American transferee. After a few more back and forth discussions the two people they had been waiting for entered, with her wearing the… gym uniform?
"All right everyone before things get too out of hand since it looks like you had a meeting beyond what I instructed for you to do, listen well." Vlad King said, pointing with his head to the chalk board they wrote some notes on, embarrassing them all. Though they were all shocked to find out Izuku was a boy this whole time and a watered-down version as to why he was mistaken for girl this did not change much. Nor did their apparently non-American heritage affect things when it came to protecting them from bullying. Pony did still try to be the closest to him as his english was still no different than the average American. With that his second first day had started off well, with his class supporting him for the first time in his life instead of torturing him. The rest of the day fortunately ended without him being seen by 1-A
