Izuku was shocked not just by how green the Ghost Zone was, but by all the floating doors, buildings, islands, etc that he saw. He had so many questions brewing in his head, but he knew that he would have to save them for later.

Especially since they were suddenly surrounded by guards from the Ghost prison. "Halt!"

Fright Knight replied, "I have His Highness here with me. You will let us pass."

Suddenly Walker appeared in front of them, "We are only here because we detected an unidentified human." He pointed right at Izuku.

Phantom said, "I asked him to come with me. All Might is here, too. Why aren't you guys mad about that?"

Walker answered, "Clockwork gave special permission for this old human to come to the Ghost Zone. But not for the small green haired one. Allowing humans not authorized into the Zone is against the rules."

Izuku started to shake with fear, but Phantom said, "As future king of the Ghost Zone, he has my permission to be here. Will that suffice?"

Walker thought for a moment, then said, "You do have some leniency now that you are a big shot, Phantom. I'll allow it. Now, move along." He disappeared along with his guards.

All Might asked, "Who was that?"

Phantom answered, "That was Walker, he's the warden of the prison here. I was a guest there, momentarily, back in my early days. He is a huge stickler for the rules."

Fright Knight said, "You handled that very well, Your Highness. Come, Clockwork is waiting."

The four floated along towards Clockwork's tower. The Box Ghost zoomed past them shouting, "Beware!", scaring Izuku a little.

They finally reached the tower and Fright Knight led the other three to Clockwork himself.

The Time Ghost turned around, "Greetings. I've been expecting all of you. For as you know, I know everything."

Phantom said, "Izuku, this is Clockwork, the Ghost of Time. He's been a mentor to me and was the one who brought my sister and I to your Earth."

Clockwork smiled, "Greetings, Izuku Midoriya. You've come a long way in your hero training. Very different from the small child you started as."

Izuku beamed, "Wow, you really can see all of time. So cool! I have so many questions…"

Clockwork interrupted, "I cannot tell you your future. It's forbidden. I've already gotten into trouble with the Observants for showing Young Phantom his future. Hence why I've taken personal responsibility for him. I know he has told you everything. I've seen how you can keep a secret. But with this, you must not tell anyone. Understood?"

Izuku nodded, "Yes, sir."

Clockwork turned to All Might, "I'm glad that Young Phantom brought you as well, All Might. For there is someone here that would like to see you."

All Might was confused, "Who?"

Clockwork pointed his staff toward an open door. Izuku and All Might were shocked at who floated through the door. Phantom just smirked.

Floating in front of them was Sir Nighteye, as he chose to become a ghost rather than pass on to the other side.

All Might shed a tear while Izuku whispered, "Sir Nighteye. But…."

Nighteye smiled, "Young Fenton told me my options before I died. I wanted to see your two futures through until the end. That desire made me a ghost. Clockwork took me in after I arrived here."

Clockwork explained, "His Quirk is very similar to my own power, so I decided to take him on as my apprentice."

All Might walked forward, "Nighteye, I…"

Phantom could see that they needed some space, so he dragged Izuku to another room.

Izuku protested, "Hey, what gives?"

Phantom answered, "Those two have a lot to catch up on. Let's give them some space."

After two hours, All Might walked into the room with Sir Nighteye. Clockwork floated towards them, "It's getting late, you three should head back." He opened a Ghost portal in front of them.

"But…" Izuku had more questions but All Might dragged him through the portal.

Just before Phantom walked through the portal, Nighteye said, "Young Fenton. Or rather Phantom. A word of warning. Dangers are coming soon. Be on your guard. Especially around those you trust. Not all may be your friends."

Phantom sighed, "You're just as cryptic as Clockwork. But I'll keep that in mind. Thanks."

He walked through the portal and it closed behind him. Nighteye looked at Clockwork, "I wish they could know what is about to happen."

Clockwork sighed, "They will be ready. Trust me."

Back at UA, All Might, Izuku, and Phantom returned. Phantom turned back into Danny, "We should probably turn in for the night. We have school tomorrow."

All Might said, "Midoriya, remember what Clockwork said. Keep everything you have seen and heard to yourself. Got it?"

Izuku nodded, "I will."

All Might walked away and Danny turned to Izuku, "Come on. Let's get back before anyone gets suspicious." He was definitely a little on edge after Nighteye's warning.

Izuku did ask, "Hey, about that ring you wore during the fight against Overhaul. Why aren't you wearing it that much?"

Danny sighed, "The Ring of Rage speaks for itself. It gives the holder immense power, but can also intense rage that can be hard to control. One, I don't want to be that angry all the time. And two, I only used it as a last resort. Like with my Ghostly Wail. So special occasions only."

The next day, Class 1-A was in math class with Mr. Ectoplasm. Everyone was struggling, even Momo. Izuku tried to answer one of the more difficult problems, but he got it wrong. He put his head down and sighed. Danny whispered, "Dude, chill out. Can't be right about everything."

After class ended, everyone got up and walked around. Ochaco said to Izuku, "You seemed really into that class, Deku."

Tenya added, "Yes1 I applaud the effort you're putting into your studies. However, before we feed our brains, we need to feed our bodies!"

Izuku nodded, "Yea, I'm stravi…."

But he was interrupted by Yuga, who put a slice of cheese into Izuku's mouth, "Please. Have some fromage."

Everyone was shocked. Izuku shouted, "Where'd you even come from?"

Yuga said, "This cheese is called Pont-l'Eveque. It's mild and perfect for snacking."

He waved some more in front of Izuku, who replied, "Oh, I'm good. Still chewing on the piece I already have in my mouth, uh, but thanks anyway."

Tenya asked, "Why don't you come have lunch with us in the cafeteria? I've noticed you usually eat by yourself, Aoyama."

Yuga shook his head, "No! Lunch Rush's food doesn't agree with my refined palate."

He showed a nice plate of food already at his seat in the classroom.

Tenya shrugged, "Well, to each their own, I suppose. We're not going to force you. Now. Time to eat."

Izuku, Tenya, and Ochaco walked out of the classroom. Danny walked behind them, but turned his head to look back at Yuga. The French student was definitely acting strange.

Later that night, when everyone was sleeping, Danny heard a loud gasp come from Izuku's bedroom. Danny got up from his bed and phased through the wall into Izuku's room. "Dude, are you OK?"

Izuku whispered, "I think I just saw Aoyama outside my window."

Danny looked out, "He's not there anymore."

Izuku opened the curtain and saw a pile of cheese on the ground. It spelled out, "Midoriya. I know."

Both Izuku and Danny were creeped out. Danny said, "OK, this is suspicious. We need to keep our eyes and ears open, and our guards up." Izuku nodded.

The next morning, Izuku and Danny were nearly late to class, as they had a hard time falling back asleep. Tenya shouted at them outside the classroom door, "Do not run in the hall! But do move your legs as quickly as possible!"

Izuku and Danny made it with one minute to spare. Danny said, "Tenya, relax, OK?"

Tenya replied, "But you two barely made it. Are you two getting enough sleep? I can see the dark bags under your eyes."

Izuku sighed, "You're right. Sorry, co class rep."

He entered the classroom and saw Yuga staring at him, "Surprise."

Danny noticed and pushed Izuku towards their seats, looking back to give Yuga a green glowing death glare that scared the Frenchman.

Later, it was time for training. Everyone changed into their costumes and went to the gym. Cementoss was waiting for them, "All right, class. Today, we'll continue working on your ultimate moves. If you haven't found a second ability, focus on finding one. If you already have two, then work on refining them until they're flawless."

Kirishima immediately activated his Hardening Quirk, "Bakugo, Sato, Midoriya, Fenton! Please use me as your own personal punching bag!"

Sato was shocked, "Dude, that sounds super weird."

Midoriya replied, "Sorry, doing some solo work today."

Bakugo brushed past Izuku, "So, you made any progress yet?"

Izuku sighed, "No, not really."

Bakugo scoffed, "What's the matter, nerd? I thought you were gonna surpass me and be number one. Kirishima! Let me Howitzer you."

"Bring it!" Kirishima shouted.

Danny, having transformed into Phantom, shook his head, "I'd rather not get involved in that. I should probably practice on my ultimate skills." He floated up to one of the pillars.

Suddenly, Yuga got Izuku's attention, "Hey. Watch this." He blasted a hole through a long piece of rock. "My new move, the Naval Buffet Laser!" Suddenly tiny lasers came out of his shoulder pads. "Feast your eyes." He suddenly fell to the ground in pain. "When I do this, my tummy always starts hurting."

Izuku was shocked, "Then why did you show me just now?" He walked over to Cementoss. "Mr. Cementoss. Aoyama isn't feeling well. Can I take him to go rest?"

Cementoss replied, "Go ahead."

Izuku grabbed hold of Yuga and started to walk out of the gym with him. "Um. So, you were on my balcony. And then, the whole "I know" thing. What did you mean?"

Yuga answered, "That I know your Quirk isn't compatible with your body. Which means, you're like me."

Izuku asked, "You think so? But how?"

Yuga answered, "I've had to wear this support belt, ever since I was un petit garcon. The truth is, if I don't wear it, then sometimes my Naval Laser just leaks out. I was born that way. You see, my body wasn't made to handle my Quirk. That's what the doctors said. When you first started at UA, you couldn't control your power at all. I remember. I've always thought we were similar. And now, ever since your work study, you seem to be even more impatient to succeed than before."

Izuku replied, "Yeah, I guess so."

Yuga asked, "Aren't surprises the best? Honestly, I think they make me happier than anything! That's why I left the message, to raise your spirits. Did it work? Was the cheese delicious?"

Izuku replied, "I didn't exactly wanna eat it off the ground."

Yuga said, "If we can't overcome the things that bring us pain, then you won't be able to twinkle, mon ami!"

Izuku smiled, "Know what, you're right. And your surprise was a huge success. Thanks, Aoyama!"

What the pair didn't know, Phantom was invisible, floating nearby. He didn't fully believe Yuga's story. He knew Yuga was hiding something. He had to keep a close eye on him, and warn Izuku to do the same.
