Earlier that day"Please, sit down." Allmight said, pointing at a chair infront of his desk, as he sat on his desk chair.

Tenko smiled and complied.

"So, how have your studies been going, Young Shimura?" Allmight asked.

"They've been going good, no issues so far." Tenko replied, a bit nervous.

"That's nice to hear. I can tell by your performance yesterday that you have a bright future ahead of you as a hero." Allmight said.

"I wouldn't say my performance was good..." Tenko thought, as he looked down.

Instead of talking, he just nodded and smiled.

Seeing the young man's sudden change of mood, he decided to change the topic.

"Speaking of heroes, I assume you've seen the reporters outside of the school. Back in the day, they would be content with just storming the premises, now they demand they be let in. HaHaHa!" Allmight said.

"How could I not see them? They're stopping every hero course student to ask about you." Tenko responded, smiling.

Allmight was about to say something else, before Tenko interrupted, "I'm sorry to interrupt you, but.. I don't suppose you called me specifically to talk about my studies and reporters.. What would you really want to talk about, sir?"

Allmight nodded.

"What I'm about to tell you is a government secret. Do I have your word that you won't discuss this with anyone, without my permission?" Allmight asked.

A few seconds passed, as Tenko thought it over.

"Yes sir. You have my word." Tenko replied.

"Long ago, during the dawn of quirks there were two brothers. The younger one was quirkless, weak, and sick. The older one was the opposite. He had a powerful quirk, and was very strong. He had the ability to take and give quirks at will."

Tenko interrupted, "Wait, take quirks? You mean 'The Quirk Boogie Man'? He's a kids tale, something that parents tell their child for them to behave."

"Please, let me continue." Allmight replied.

"They both loved comic books. But while the younger brother loved the heroes, the older one focused on how the villains always loosed, no matter how strong they were. The older brother used his free time to take the quirks from people who didn't want them, and gave them to those who did. Little by little, he built his empire and went by the name of his quirk, All For One. He planned to take over Japan, but when his little brother found out what he was doing, he started a rebelion. Most died, the only rebel that survived was his brother. So, he locked him in a room, to prevent him from starting another rebelion."

Allmight took a pause to let what he said sink in before he drank some water, and continued.

"While he was locked away, he barely recieved any food or water. Due to this, his sickness got worse. The older brother, seeing this, decided to give him a gift. I don't know if it was because of some form of twisted love, or just pity, that he decided to give him a quirk. Not a strong one, just a small strength boost. Little did they both know, that the younger brother did in fact have a quirk. The ability to give quirks. By itself it's useless, but combined with the strength boost, it became a new and strong quirk entirely. The brother was eventually freed by a new rebelion, and managed to pass his quirk on. His new and combind quirk, was the abilty to stockpile strength, and pass it on to someone else. It's name, is One For All. The quirk became stronger with each user it was passed unto. In total, the quirk has been passed on eight times."

Tenko narrowed his eyes, but let Allmight continue.

"Five years ago, I was in a battle. It was so huge, that it destroyed many cities." Allmight said.

"Wait, five years ago? Wouldn't a battle that big have been on the news? Turned into a holiday or something? How come I've never heard of it?" Tenko asked.

"This battle was kept secret from the public, in fear that they would loose hope in their heroes." Allmight responded.

"But why? You defeated him, right? I mean, you're here!" Tenko said.

"I did defeat him, but at a cost." Allmight said.

Allmight stood up, and pulled his shirt up to his chest.

Tenko gasped at what he saw. A horrible purple scar at Allmight's left side that swirled from his chest, all the way to his ribs.

"This, was the result of that fight. He managed to destroy my stomach and left lung in the process. Thankfully, he missed my heart." Allmight said.

Suddenly, smoke filled Allmight's form, as he shrank into a skinny, stickman like form.

"This is the result of that injury." He continued.

"The story of those two brothers is not fiction, but a part of history. A part of history that was hidden away to make way for a new quirk centered society. The villain that I fought, was All For One." Allmight said.

Tenko's eyes widened at this revelation, but said nothing.

"People often speculate about my quirk. Whenever a reporter asks me about it, I manage to dodge the question with a joke or just ignore it. The truth is, my quirk... is One For All." Allmight said.

Tenko gasped, and nearly jumped off of the chair he was sitting on, as those words registered in his mind.
