"All Might, I'm sure you get this question a lot now that the nature of your quirk was revealed to the world but, have you chosen someone as your successor yet? The world over is dying to know if you have bestowed your immeasurable power to a lucky individual." Mayuri Chorunosuke, an interviewer for the heroics news asks All Might as he sits in front of the man's desk in a talk show like set up.

"Luck has nothing to do on whether or not I have deemed someone worthy but, I think it's best that I finally tell you all that I have made that decision. For years every single person has asked me to let them be my successor, I haven't been able to do a simple autograph for a young child without their parents asking me to give them my quirk on their birthday. It isn't a matter of someone thinking they deserve it, it was a matter of if I felt that they were worthy of that title. I have chosen my successor and I will not disclose their gender, name or even if they live in japan or on this side of the world for that matter. The next holder of One for All has been chosen and their identity will remain secret." All Might replies just before the television is clicked off.

"Do you have everything sweetie? Bookbag? Pencils? Tracksuit?" Mom asks after she puts the television remote aside and walks over to see her son off to the entrance exams. "I still can't believe that you now have a quirk and are going to go to UA. I'm so proud of you." She says with a teary eyed smile placing her hand aside Izuku's cheek and rubbing it with her thumb.

"Thank you mom, and I have everything I need for today too." I reply tying my shoes and standing up. "Wish me luck mom." I say before hugging my mother and leaving the house.

Through the train ride to UA, My nerves were at an all time high. Sure I have been training for the past 10 months at UA and with All Might in secrecy but I still have to officially pass the entrance exams to be placed into Aizawa's class. Not to mention if I ran into Bakugou there was a chance that he recognizes the power of One for All and outed me as All Might's new successor. Rumors of the new holder spread like wildfire, in less than 12 hours almost 20 people with a random strength enhancer claimed to be the successor of All Might. Either for publicity or their own gain I don't know since my thoughts are all too focused on what is to come during the practical exams. I have taken the written portion with Nezu already and made perfect marks on the exam now it just leaves the practical portion. I exit the train and begin my journey up the hill that UA is built atop of. "This is the first step to becoming a hero." I say allowed before catching my foot on top of a lifted stone and tripping forwards. "Or I could just die." I say before almost face planting on the side walk.

"Release." A brown haired woman says before she grabs me by the shoulders and sets me back on the ground. "Sorry for using my quirk on you, but it would be bad luck if you fell on your face on the first day." She says pressing her finger tips together and gives me a closed eyed smile before walking away.

"I talked to a girl!" I exclaim with a dopey smile but I didn't actually say anything to her.

"I told you I'd kill you if you showed up Deku!" Bakugou shouts from behind causing me to jump in my place due to fright.

"O-oh, h-hey k-kacchan. F-fancy seeing y-you here." I say timidly before covering myself and flinching expecting to be struck by Bakugou.

"Stay out of my way shitty nerd." He replies with a scowl as he walks past. "I'm in a shit mood because of All Might's interview. He chose some extra to have One for All over me." He growls as he disappears into the main building.

"When are you not in a bad mood?" I think to myself as I walk inside the auditorium. "Remember what Nezu said and you'll be fine, 3 robots minimum of 35 points to get into UA and that they are looking for something heroic... whatever that means." I internally monologue as I make my way inside the auditorium but I'm unfortunately stuck next to Bakugou.

After Present Mic's presentation the examinees were split into test groups and sent to different faux cities around the campus. The bus ride over was very short only about 5 minutes before stopping and letting the students off the bus. After deboarding the bus, I see the same brown haired girl from earlier and try to thank her but I'm stopped by a blue haired gentleman who made a fuss about his muttering during the presentation. I explain that I was just going to thank her for stopping me from falling flat on my face. After that little debacle Present Mic sounds the starting scream and before the students could even react I had activated Full Cowling at 17% and practically vanished from where they were standing.

"DON'T JUST STAND THERE! THERE'S NO COUNTDOWN IN A REAL BATTLE!" Present Mic shouts causing the other students to start running towards the city.

As the others make their way inside they see me almost flash stepping between robots and striking them as hard as I can. Each blow tears off portions of the robots like they're made of paper mache. The others start filling into the city and begin trashing the robots too. Using One for All, I feel a sense of accomplishment that I am worthy of this power and I'm going to make my master proud. I begin to increase the power slightly and is now producing lightning that arcs about the air surrounding him. I rush to attack a three pointer only for it to be destroyed by a blue laser shot from a blonde's stomach after said blonde man struck a Jojo pose. He gives me a thank you for distracting the robot before darting off towards another place in the faux city.

"A-Anytime.. I guess?" I say to no one in particular with a shrug before vanishing once again in a flash of green lightning.

In the Observation Room:

"We've got some very interesting talent in this year's bunch, don't we Nezu?" Cementoss asks while looking at a monitor which shows a blonde teen using lightning to short circuit the robots he comes across.

"Yes, indeed, it seems that Young Izuku is doing splendid as well. He's currently at the top of the leaderboard with seventy four points." Nezu replies as the focus of all of the teacher's goes to the main monitor that is broadcasting Izuku's journey destroying robots left and right.

"You chose a wonderful successor All Might, despite being quirkless he overcame that and is now the shoe in for class 1-A. However it seems that a particularly fussy examinee is a bit sour about you choosing a successor." Midnight replies as she takes a sip from some tea while watching the display of Bakugou trashing robots.

"That particular one bullied my successor for being quirkless. His ego blinds his judgment and one day he will realise he will be powerless to aid anyone, even himself, and only then will he change." All Might says before stopping Aizawa from disqualifying Bakugou. "Don't, Young Midoriya's drive is to beat him and prove him wrong once and for all. He may not show it but I can tell that a rivalry between the two has been formed and it will push both of them to get stronger and stronger." All Might says as Aizawa reluctantly backs off and goes back into his sleeping bag with an apple sauce packet in his mouth.

"Well if that's the case then let's test his bravado shall we?" Nezu says before pulling a lever that opens up a panel revealing a big red button before the mouse bear man presses it. "With bravado, one needs bravery to back it up and it is oftentimes the veil of a coward." He says as the ground begins to rumble.

Testing Site A

"Phew, that should be good enough for now. From the math I did in my head I'd say I have about a hundred and thirty or so points. Oh! Let's see if anyone needs help-" I begin to say to myself after kicking a two pointer robot into the afterlife before, being cut off short by the sounds of loud booms. The entire mock city shakes as if it's experiencing an earthquake. Everyone, who had been gathered into the central area of the city looking for higher point robots, watches on with fear stricken expressions as cable wires are snapped, the concrete beneath our feet cracks, and large buildings that easily house fifty stories are toppled like building blocks. Within the smoke and dust that has been kicked up, the sounds of mechanical whirring and rotating of tank treads can be heard as the large silhouette of a hand grabs onto a building which crumbles under its force.

"W-What the hell is that...?" A random examinee asks with a quivering tone of fear as a massive silhouette is seen behind the smoke screen.

As the wind blows and the dust settles, we look on in terror at the sight of a robot bigger than anything we''ve ever seen even from a movie.

"T-That's the last robot P-Present Mic mentioned...?" A girl asks with a paled expression as the robot looks the way of the crowd, causing their fight of flight modes to activate and for the collective they chose the latter.

"R-RUN! THERES NO WAY WE CAN TAKE ON THAT THING!"

"HOW IS THIS A TEST?!"

"I DON'T WANNA DIE! HELP ME!!!"

The sounds of screaming people fill my head, my ears ring from the sound as my eyes tremble. Paralyzed. I fell to my knees, hopelessness shown in my expression.

'Theres no beating that thing...' I think as my hands quaked and my mind screamed at me to run.

'How could I ever be a hero? I can't beat a robot of that size, what chance would I have against actual villains...?' I think as the reality of the situation hit me and life left my emerald green eyes and I began to apologise to All Might, to everyone, for not being good enough.

Despite me feeling worthless right now that voice again screams for someone to help her, I look up to see the brown haired girl from earlier strapped under the rubble in the path of the robot.

In the heat of the moment, as 'You Say Run' begins to play through the speakers thanks to Present Mic, I recall back to earlier.

"It'd be bad luck if you fell on your first day, right?"

I remembered it so clearly. She helped me And now it's time that I helped her!

With the power glowing, roaring, through my veins, I sprint into action, One For All activating at the twenty percent which is all my body can manage as green lightning Cascades around my body and life returns to my eyes. The sound of a thunderclap makes the retreating test takers turn around and watch on with ensnared gazes as I reach the point to where I'm a few meters away from the zero pointer and then I take powerful leap into the air. The crowd gasps at my action and even the brown haired girl can't help herself but watch. I pull back my empowered right arm that is surging with everything that is One for All. "Clench your buttcheeks Kid!"

I remember All Might's words, the advice he gave me for when I use all one hundred percent of One For All.

"And yell from the depths of your heart!"

"SSSMAAAAAAAASSSHHHHHHH!!!!" I bellow as I launch my arm forward and unleashes a full force attack onto the zero pointer robot. The impact decimates its facial plate and makes it skid back more than fifty meters from the sheer power of the punch.

Observation room

The heroes cheer. They have just become witness to Izuku taking his first step to becoming a hero, by enacting that art of self sacrifice, how can they not be excited?!

"He did it! Shouta! Did you see him?! Izuku did it!" Midnight shouts with joy as she pulls Aizawa out of his sleeping bag and shakes him back and forth.

"Yes Nemuri, I saw, now stop shaking me!" The erasure hero demands as he shoves Midnight's hands off of his shoulders.

"Aww don't be like that! Lighten up a little! Here, I'll even give you a little incentive~" The R-Rated heroine says as her expression turns into a much more seductive one and she gives Aizawa a loving kiss on the cheek, promptly making Present Mic cheer and the rest of the heroes clap for their stone cold co-worker.

"Woooo!" "Go Eraser!" "Way to get a hottie dude!" Some of the heroes congradulate as Aizawa is frozen in place and his mind is going a million miles an second trying to figure out what in the fuck just happened.

"Come by my place tonight and let's become real adults together~" Midnight says as she puts a hand on Aizawa's shoulder and leans closer to his ear so no one hears what she says next other than him. "Under the sheets~" Without another word she struts out of the observation room with a sway to her hips and as the door shuts behind her Present Mic looks towards the door with a smirk.

"Well well well, looks like someone's getting lu-" The sound hero begins to say before looking up in his chair at Aizawa's face and immediately his jaw hits the floor and his glasses fall off his nose. Aizawa is blushing.

Deep. Crimson. Red.

Back with Izuku:

I stare at what remains of the robot holding my mangled arm in front of me as I watch it explode into millions of bits. The metal beast topples over and away from the brown haired girl from earlier but there's one problem. I feel gravity now taking hold of me again and I start plummeting back to the ground. "My arm and legs are broken... I have to time this right or I might die." I think before pulling my left arm back preparing to punch the ground. It gets closer and closer to me as I fall the hundreds of meters back to the ground. Just as I'm about to hit the ground, I feel someone slap my face then my weight leaves me and I feel weightless before blacking out.
