CHAPTER START---

Standing in one of the bathrooms of the stadium Horizon is leaning forward, both hands down on the counter.

This was one of the bathrooms only accessible to students on the upper levels, and he was currently using it to get some control of himself.

From beneath his visor he stared into the mirror, but instead of seeing the visor starting back. He saw Law Matani, face bare, pacing around shouting and screaming.

All the emotions he felt when Todoroki began running his mouth.

Insulting his family.

Making his insane assumptions.

'He needs to pay,' the reflection says, his voice in a low growl as it stands in front of the sink, glaring at Horizon. 'People need to learn not to make assumptions about our family, not to talk about them...'

"Yeah...I'll educate him," Horizon says in response, and they both nod at that.

Logic and reason gone the moment someone mentions his parents in such a way.

"Kaminari is frozen in place!" Mic's voice echoes through the halls and into the bathroom. "That means Todoroki advances to the semi-finals, and his next opponent will be Horizon!"

Horizon stands up properly, smiling at the announcement, a smile shared by his reflection, his inner voice.

"Looks like I'll get my chance..." he mutters before leaving the room.

Normally he'd just warp back to his seat instead of taking the short walk, but at the moment he couldn't.

One of the few times he's vulnerable is when preparing for an operation, such as right now.

Normally he'd be safe in a private room with his patient, make contact once, find what he wants to extract, then gather the energy to make it happen.

But this was different, he didn't have the luxury of keeping in contact with his next patient. He simply had to make contact for barely a few seconds, locate his target, then break contact and begin focusing his energy.

And right now he was still entirely focused on Todoroki who was walking through the locker room.

Using another technique would disrupt this and restart the process, and he'd rather not take the chance, he also wouldn't recover any of this spent energy or the sum used to keep open a room that could span nearly half the stadium to keep them both inside it.

Most notably thus far he used this technique to extract the drugs from the son of a patient in Dubai.

He's so focused that he doesn't respond while passing by Tokoyami, just giving his classmate a polite nod as he heads to his waiting room.

And he pays no attention to Iida's phone conversation, but at a glance he sees tears rolling down the boy's face, a petrified expression seizing him. Immediately shoving that to the back of his mind, it was simply not his problem.

Arriving back to where his class was seated he stands at the back almost against the wall, noticing Momo and Jiro sitting at the front. Jiro turns around to shoot him a dirty look while Momo doesn't respond to his return.

'What the hell is her problem?' he wonders, genuinely not understanding how his words weren't seen as encouragement. It's how he's always been raised to think after all.

Horizon remains at the back with his arms folded across his chest, everyone could somehow feel the subtle anger radiating off him, wisely deciding not to bother him for idle chatter.

And a moment later Tokoyami and Juzo take the stage.

"And now for the last bout of the quarter-finals!" Midnight announces, catching everyone off guard. "Unfortunately Tenya Iida had to leave early for a family emergency, so after this match, Bakugo automatically advances to the next round!"

Bakugo gets visibly enraged at that, not having the full challenge he wanted to prove that he's the undisputed best.

Now if he wins people would be able to doubt his victory because of this free pass to the semi-finals.

Horizon also sees Deku sitting with Uraraka, she takes out her phone immediately, likely to text Iida. Deku had both his hands in casts, his right arm as well. And both his legs were covered in bandages, along with his torso.

'The pennies are adding up...' Horizon thinks, noticing the scars and newly crooked fingers on Deku's right hand as the girl walks past him, phone to her ear to call Iida.

"Now onto the match!" Midnight gestures to Tokoyami. "Class 1As dark samurai himself, Tokoyami, and his seemingly invincible Quirk, Dark Shadow! Versus..." she gestures to Juzo. "Class 1Bs leading star, Juzo Honenuki, and his versatile Quirk, Softening! Are you ready?!"

Both boys nod, staring blankly at each other.

"BEGIN!"

"Da--argh!" before Tokoyami can even summon Dark Shadow Juzo slams both palms into the ground, using his super move.

"Muddy Swamp!" Juzo yells out.

"A super move!" Mic's shocked voice electrifies the audience. "Looks like the recommended student is here to show out!"

Before Tokoyami could even summon his Quirk Juzo had already softened the entire stage, causing the bird boy to sink up to his neck into the softened cement before making it thick enough to completely trap him, exactly like he did to defeat Momo.

Juzo pants a few times, wiping a bead of sweat from his forehead, still standing ankle-deep on the softened floor. "Done, you're immobilized!"

"Class 1B is here to show out too!" Mic screams, echoed by the crowd.

Seeing Tokoyami breaking out into a cold sweat, his expression changing to one of pain and terror in a heartbeat, Midnight moves to end the match. "Tok---"

"NO!" Tokoyami interrupts her, drawing all eyes to him as the stadium and Juzo silently wait to see what he does. "Too much Darkness...can't control... DARK SHADOW! STOP!"

The softened cement around Tokoyami ripples, Juzo immediately slams his palms into the floor and hardens it into solid cement once more, trapping Tokoyami and his own ankles in the floor.

But Tokoyami keeps struggling, "it's too much! DARK SHADOW! NO!"

The entire arena cracks and begins breaking apart as Juzo looks down horrified, feeling something moving below, shaking the entire stage.

"R̸̟̗̰̠͕̜̊R̶̜͉͍̥͖̉͆̾́͋̀R̴̖̯̔̈̊R̴͓͎̥͆͒̉̕͜R̷̡̝̺̈́̈͛̿̅͘R̵̹̱̆A̸͎̣͌́̂A̶̠̮̱̅A̵̩͎̻̜͗Å̷̡̼̱̺͆R̶̫̊́̄̇G̴̮̪̲̘̐G̸̖̬̀̂̿͆̉̆H̴̩͂́̌͑͑̉H̶̡̼͕̄̀!̶̢̦̱̯̹̅͊̏̕!̵̯̱̫͎͐̇̒!̵̭̫̗̪̒́̇͌!̶̧̨̫̙͍̝͛"

An explosion of cement and dust shakes the entire arena, a gust of wind much smaller than Deku's finger flicks rushes past the crowd in every direction.

The ten-meter-tall outline of Tokoyami's shadow monster Quirk manifests for all to see, screaming and roaring in a way that made most of the attending Pro Heroes recoil in fear.

Blood curling and throats drying up, sweating profusely at the terrifying aura of destructive force.

A moment later the dust is cleared up and everyone gets a glimpse at the massive shadow demon before the sunlight beats it back into submission, causing it to shrink back into the docile Dark Shadow.

"I'm sorry Fumi," it politely says, shyly kneading its hands together as the boy is on his hands and knees on the completely destroyed stage trying to catch his break.

"Juzo?!" Tokoyami yells, looking around for his opponent, terrified at the idea of hurting him while everyone just stared in shock.

Off a fair distance away, he sees the walkway leading to the stage ripple and a hand comes out, Juzo crawls out as if it were a swimming pool with a small bruise on his face, and stands up.

"I'm ok! I softened the ground before I hit!" he announces happily. "That's one serious Quirk!"

"I'll say," Midnight says, causing all eyes to move to her as she pushes some rubble off herself, pieces of her Hero Costume torn to show off some of the bruises that attack gave her. "Juzo is out of bounds! Tokoyami advances to the next round!"

The crowd erupts into cheers, but cutting through it all were the words of Pro Heroes considering everything they just saw.

'Those kids are amazing.'

'Did you see how strong that bird guy was, I bet he'll be a top pro once he can control his Quirk.'

'Yeah no kidding, he's already stronger than me!'

'That mud kid was amazing too, his instincts are insane.'

'And he reacts Quickly too, I guess both classes are good huh, not just 1A.'

'Yeah well he is a recommended student, what do you really expect?'

the chatter goes on and on and Midnight announces the short intermission for Cementoss to repair the arena...again.

'Strong in darkness and weak in light,' Horizon thinks as he considers what he just saw. 'Tokoyami said that he's here to learn to control his Quirk, but from the way he speaks it's all mental, his Quirk isn't really the type that you can train to increase the power...so he's all mastery and equipment to change the variables at play...I wonder if he sleeps with all the light on to----'

"Hey Horizon," Kendo snaps him out of his thoughts by tapping his shoulder, leaning up slightly to get in his face.

"Kendo, what's up?" he asks, putting aside his anger for the moment.

"Just here to congratulate you, well more like congratulate your class. Juzo was our last chance to win a medal, but I guess it's all Class 1A from here," she shrugs.

"I guess that's one way to look at things," he says. "Our four strongest are in the semi-finals, but it looks like I'll be beating Bakugo in the finals..."

"That confident huh."

"My Quirk lets me see the future," he says casually.

"Really?!"

"No, but that's part of the benefit of my Quirk, yuou've got no idea what I can do," he shrugs.

Kendo blushes slightly, not from any infatuation at all, but from falling for his simple trick. "Well if you can warp, heal, make electricity, and use Telekinesis...foresight really isn't that big of a leap in logic."

"I suppose that's a fair conclusion with the information you have, I should get to the waiting room, time for my big debut."

"Oh, right, good luck, we're all rooting for you," she enlarges her fist to give him a thumbs up.

"If I win do I get a giant cookie?"

"Well, Yui thinks you're cool...I think, kinda hard to tell since she doesn't really talk, but Shiozaki says she thinks that...I'm sure she won't mind," Kendo says with a slightly nervous smile.

"I'll look forward to it..."

Making his way to the temporary locker room ten minutes early Horizon feels his surgery preparation complete, now freeing him up to use other techniques without resetting his progress.

Breathing a sigh of relief he no longer feels restricted, always hating that feeling of having limits put on him.

Eventually, he rounds the final corner sees the locker room at the end of the hallway, and sees his ideal internship choice standing right in front of it. Too bad it was also the person his parents were assumed to act like.

Endeavor turns to look directly at Horizon, seeing the boy walking toward him visor unreadable, and Endeavor's expression matching it entirely.

With flames on his shoulders, boots, arms, and face to form his mask, only leaving his red hair exposed and his body covered by a dark blue skin-tight suit.

His hulking 6ft5 -195cm- figure was actually taller than Horizon, if barely. Weighing 260lbs -118kg- of muscle, clearly defined by his body suit, truly an intimidating vision and presence.

The man with the world record for incidents resolved, far surpassing even that of All Might, someone so useful that despite his coarse manner of speaking to others he's still risen to being the number 2 hero.

With only pure effort and usefulness...Horizon's gold standard for heroes.

"Horizon," Endeavor says. "Since you're the boy's next oppone---"

Endeavor suddenly finds himself outside the stadium under a few trees. Warped away without him noticing any movement at all from Horizon.

"Tch, that truly is as annoying as I expected..." he mutters while angrily making his way back to the stadium.

'But if anyone can truly push Shoto to his limits...it's him, his greatest obstacle to be the undisputed strongest hero, Horizon...'

CHAPTER START---

Standing in the tunnel leading to the arena Todoroki watches the crowd once again lose themselves as Midnight announces his next match.

With a sigh he raises his left hand, creating a small flickering flame in his palm. "Midoriya... you showed me what it means to be a hero, to help people," he crushes the flame in his hand, snuffing it out. "But I don't know how ready I am to start moving forward, but maybe I can help someone else..."

He sees Horizon enter the arena, hands in his pockets, not waving to the audience at all.

'Something is off,' Shoto realizes, Horizon's showmanship was suddenly taking a back seat, he was far more serious.

After Midnight announces his name Shoto begins slowly walking to the arena, his mind working overtime to go over his plan one last time. An exercise in futility.

'Freeze him as fast as possible, if that fails and he summons his sword I can use my heat to displace the Air Slashes...' he thinks, keeping it simple and adaptive.

"Are both of you ready?" Midnight asks, and neither boy reacts.

Horizon just looks down on Shoto, and he looks up at Horizon who was towering over him. Only ten meters between them.

But from this far away the presence of Horizon felt more intense, as if he went from being mildly annoyed at everyone to being outright pissed. All for a reason Shoto couldn't understand.

"Uh, ok," Midnight said awkwardly, "BEGIN!"

Todoroki immediately lowers his stance, feeling the right side of his body cool down, a thick layer of ice spreads across the arena, cracking and breaking up before reaching Horizon.

'Heaven-Piercing Ice Wall!'

The ice on the floor erupts into a sharp burst of ice thrusting up at Horizon, and the moment it's about to make contact.

SHAMBLES!

His vision is suddenly blocked as Horizon appears in front of him, his right hand outstretched already and touching Shoto's chest.

MES!

"Hng!" Todoroki stumbles back, vision going blurry for a moment as he drops to one knee, breathing heavily. He looks up, trying and barely forcing himself to stand, seeing Horizon looking down on him with both hands at his sides.

Stumbling back one more time Shoto raises his right arm, trying to launch more ice, only for him to feel as if he got the wind knocked out of him. Wincing in pain and nearly doubling over he sees Horizon tilt his head slightly.

"My Quirk!"

"You really should have kept your mouth shut," Horizon says before stepping forward, connecting a solid right cross to Shoto's face.

His vision goes black for a moment as he feels his body crumple toward the floor, only for searing pain on his head as Horizon catches him by the hair, holding him up.

"Mmm," Todoroki's words fail, seeing blood dripping from his mouth, three teeth clattered across the floor.

"So weak," Horizon says, holding Todoroki by the hair a few inches off the floor, much to the horror of everyone watching.

Fighting through the pain Todoroki raises his right hand to Horizon's face, intent on using his Quirk once more.

SHAMBLES!

They both appear a few meters away at the ice structure Shoto made, with Horizon slamming him into it face first.

SHAMBLES!

They appear at a different piece of the ice and Horizon smashes his face in one more time.

Todoroki hangs limply in his hand, easily getting tossed back to the middle of the arena, rolling a few times before crumpling to the floor, blood running down his face from his mouth and forehead as Horizon walks up to him.

Shoto fights through the pain, forcing himself to sit up, looking up at Horizon with confusion and anger, glaring as best he can with a bloody face.

Midnight raises a hand to her earpiece as Horizon casually walks over to Shoto, "Nezu, he's gonna kill him," she mutters.

"No he won't," Nezu says. "He's being a bit rougher than usual, clearly something is off, but he won't kill him. The risk isn't worth it."

'What the hell does that mean,' Midnight wonders, seeing Horizon standing above Shoto. 'So he won't kill him because of the risk instead of because it would be the wrong thing to do...not much of a hero.'

Shoto once again fruitlessly thrusts his hand forward, this time his left hand, trying desperately to make a flame so Horizon would have to back away, adrenaline and fear gripping his heart and mind as nothing happens.

And in response Horizon only tilts his head, hearing the audience murmuring, trying to figure out what happened.

"You still haven't realized? Your Quirk doesn't work anymore."

"Hngh?" Todoroki's swollen and bloody mouth can't even form words, but the audience echoes his confusion.

Horizon sighs, deciding to start his big debut scene now, he can already hear the people all around the world constantly screaming his name, and he'd get to teach Todoroki never to talk about his family again...

"Your Quirk has three simple weaknesses," Horizons says. "Overuse your right side and you get frostbite, left side leads to heat exhaustion...but even if you could perfectly control them, you still need stamina. All I did was remove the source of your stamina, and without it, your body won't allow you to activate that Quirk, no matter how badly you want it."

Todoroki looks up at him, not understanding what he meant at all, then stares down at his hands, currently kneeling before Horizon.

Trying and failing to create fire or ice.

"Here, let me show you," Horizon holds out a hand, and in it appears a beating heart, red and healthy, preserved in a jelly-like clear cube. "Your stamina engine..."

Todoroki's heavy labored breathing suddenly becomes desperate panicked pants. Sweating profusely as he grips his chest, tearing at his shirt and undershirt. His body and mind flooded with panic and fear.

All while some of the audience reel back in horror or lose their lunch.

"IS THAT HIS FREAKING HEART?!" Mic screams, followed by terrified murmurs all around the stadium.

A moment later Shoto rips open his top, exposing his creamy skin, well-defined abs, and a square hole in the middle of his chest where his heart should be.

He completely freezes, looking into his own body.

Even more people lose their lunch as the cameras focus on him and the beating heart in Horizon's hand.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine unless something happens to this," Horizon gestures to the heart, then give it a light squeeze.

"Arrngh!" Shoto screams out, clutching his hollow chest and doubling over. "Oh don't be such a baby, I barely touched it," Horizon scoffs.

Todoroki reaches up, still in immense pain he desperately reaches for his heart, only for Horizon to take one step back taunting him.

"This should teach you never to talk about my family," Horizon says, clear for everyone to hear him.

He raises his free hand, summoning his sword to his palm, and immediately swings down.

"NO!" Midnight rips her costume, releasing a pink mist.

But he'd already slashed Shoto, slashing his head diagonally, seemingly killing him.

Everyone reels back in horror but Horizon dodges Midnight's whip before warping away, just in time to avoid Cementoss's cement attack, a wave of the substance trying to swallow him.

"HE'S NOT DEAD!" Horizon yells, causing both Pros to freeze, still glaring at him, but their eyes flicker off to the side for a moment.

They see Todoroki cut into two pieces on the floor, his arm reaching out randomly, confused and dizzy.

And Endeavor is already kneeling beside him, not sure if he should reach out and help or just wait, frozen in fear and confusion, all his flames currently shut off as his world crumbles apart.

Midnight is the first in the arena to snap to her senses, everyone else still staring in shock, "HORIZON! This must be one of your Quirks, start explaining or you're disqualified!" she says, ignoring whatever interests Nezu had in the boy.

Unable to stand by as someone possibly kills one of her students.

Horizon straightens up, still surrounded by the pink mist she was emitting, her Quirk, Somnambulist, a powerful sleeping agent that's even more potent against men.

"Quirk, singular," he says, straightening up and summoning his scabbard onto the blade, holding his sword in his left hand and Shoto's heart in his right as he makes his grand reveal."

"My Quirk gives me multiple abilities, each capable of being a powerful Quirk on their own," he looks at the surprised faces of the crowd, until now many people either didn't bother trying to solve his Quirk or assumed it was some sort of spacial control ability.

"Obviously, everyone has seen my warping," he shrugs. "And you all know about my healing, but..

AMPUTATE, those are my ranged slashes," he lifts his sword to draw their eyes to it. "A lot of range and they divide things as they are, overcoming feeble things like resistance and material composition, if it exists, I can divide it."

"We thought those were Air Slash," Midnight says.

"And now you know better, I simply cut reality," he says with a humourous tone, as if suppressing a giggle at all the surprised faces. "Any living thing I cut with the ranged slashes is harmlessly divided of course, "he raises the beating heart.

"Next I suppose is Counter-Shock, it lets me generate electricity.

Takt, again, not Telekinesis, I just order the world to move and it obeys.

Booster-Shot, temporary surge in physical strength.

Injection-Shot, invisible bullets that also ignore defenses, they only do internal damage...

And a few other things I'll keep up my sleeve, but that's all everyone has seen me use today, you'll have to keep watching for more," he says casually, enjoying all the murmuring from the crowd.

"What kind of Quirk is that?" Midnight asks, both intrigued and wary of him, no longer sure if he was even human.

"A virtually endless bag of tricks, the ability to manipulate the world around me in whatever way I desire, that's the power of my Quirk, HAND OF GOD!" He boldly announces. "Japan's first, and the world's second...Mystery Class Quirk!"

For a long moment, everyone is so surprised that they're silent.

Then realization hits.

They have a Mystery Class Quirk.

A superhuman prodiy at UA.

Training to protect them.

To be a hero and fight for them.

They have a new top-tier hero right in front of them.

And the crowd goes absolutely wild, screaming and cheering to the point that Horizon felt as if they were trying to rupture his eardrums.

"Oh, and one more thing," he makes a show of taking a deep breath, pulling in as much of Midnight's sleeping gas as possible before breathing out, and everyone gets quiet to listen in, excited to learn more about their future superhero.

"Mortal ailments and diseases don't really work on me because...well, you get it, right?" he asks jokingly, seeing Midnight just blankly staring at him as he shrugs off her Quirk. "But hey, at least you smell good."

She blushes slightly at that but quickly looks unamused as he walks over to Shoto and Endeavor.

"You can have this back," he says to them, tossing the heart down at Shoto only for Endeavor to quickly react, snapping out of his trance and gently catching it. "Next time he runs his mouth about my family I won't be putting him back together for you."

Horizon snaps his fingers, and Shoto's pieces flicker about for a moment before he appears perfectly assembled on the floor in front of his dad, completely unconscious from the shock of being divided and the heart attack.

"Todoroki is unable to battle, Horizon wins," Midnight announces in a confused and worried voice, immediately running over to Shoto and calling some medical robots to help her.

Endeavor barely snaps out of his stupor as the robots arrive with a stretcher, and by the time he looks across the arena, Horizon is long gone.

Another person he was destined to play second place to suddenly appeared...

Sitting in the locker room Horizon idly scrolls through his 'Yay!' page, watching his follower count climb to twenty million as his name is trending.

His mind no longer as angry now that's he's slapped Todoroki around a bit...

---Kamino Ward, Tokyo, Japan...

Sitting in his large chair All For One mutes Shigaraki's video call and turns to doctor Garaki who sat beside him, narrating the action of what happens on screen since All For One had no eyes, only 'seeing' with infrared.

While Shigaraki was ranting about how unfair it is for the heroes to have that cheat code called Horizon, the adults decided to have a constructive conversation.

"A Mystery Class Quirk," Garaki says. "To think a third would appear so early, and within our very own borders..."

"Hmm, but this is also problematic, Nezu has him in that fortress six days a week," All For One says. "We can't get to him in there unless I go in person, even if we send Gigantomachi he can't capture someone who will warp away."

"Neither can you, at least not yet," Garaki says.

"Mmm, my sources within the Hero Commission are slow but useful, apparently Nezu kept his information from them as well."

"But even if that plan works, is engaging him truly wise?" Garaki asks. "Mystery Class Quirks are head and shoulders above all others, that was the reason we sent Arsenal to kill that girl all those years ago in America...too bad her sister also had the same Quirk,that damn Star and Stripe..."

"Yes but this time I'm sure we can have some leverage to bring him to us, and I'll be using Shake Down."

"That will kill you!" Garaki yells.

"Relax doctor," All For One chuckles at his friend's worry. "I won't be using it directly, we'll place it in a Nomu."

"Hmm, I won't have enough time to clone it in that case with the amount of Nomus we're currently making, but I suppose with a Quirk like that you only need one use."

"Precisely, we simply need to wait for our spies to do their job..."

All For One then unmutes Shigaraki's screen and the incessant rambling about the unfairness of this whole situation continues, causing both men to groan in annoyance.

Since the appearance of this new walking miracle, All For One couldn't care any less for his apprentice, now only keeping him around to hurt All Might.

Both he and doctor Garaki were counting down the days until they could dispose of him...

---Off The Coast Of New York...

Standing atop a next-gen X Class fighter jet America's number 1 hero stands tall, moving 3000 kilometers per hour, the wind blowing her long blonde hair.

Standing at 6ft4 -193cm-, the same height as Law, but slightly more muscular. Her entire costume is styled like an American flag, her cape made of red and white stripes, long and flowing. Blonde hair modeled after All Might's. And the entire skin-tight suit is red and blue with the same stripes as her cape mixed in. Metal bracing around her midsection and shoulders purely for aesthetics.

Smiling proudly, Star and Stripe, America's number 1 hero, and currently the single most powerful person in the world.

Casually walking across the hull of the black jet under her feet, as if it weren't even moving, Star makes her way to the front and leans forward, looking through the glass to wave at the pilot.

Inside she sees a brown-skinned man seemingly made of rock, average height and build but shaped strangely, with a bushy white mustache, hand on the flight juke controlling the aircraft.

"How is the sports festival going?" Star asks commander Agpar.

"The first semi-final match is starting," he says. "It's Endeavors son against that Horizon kid."

"Did All Might make an appearance yet?" Star asks, her inner fanboy coming out.

"How about we deal with this nuke then you can watch it yourself, he'll probably only show up for the medal ceremo---" they're both cut off by a beeping in their ears.

Star immediately stands upright atop the plane and folds her arms across her chest, focusing her eyes to see kilometers away.

"It's on the radar now, get ready," Agpar says.

"Yeah, I can see it," she says. "Fly directly into the nuke, let's make this quick so I don't miss All Might's appearance, you keep an eye on the tournament for me..."

"Damn Evolutionists," Agpar grumbles. "If we could just bait out their leaders we'd be able to lock them all up, bunch of cowards won't show up as long as you're in America..."

"Can't blame them," Star chuckles, "I'm the strongest woman in the world..."

They both immediately notice the dot on the horizon, the nuclear missile heading directly for Manhattan, powerful enough to crater the entire island.

After Agpar sets them on a collision course he turns back to his phone, watching the sports festival live as Star deals with the nuke, there couldn't a more relaxed duo in the face of a superweapon.

As the missile gets close enough Star activates her own Myster Class Quirk.

"NEW ORDER: The Atmosphere around me will gather and materialize into an avatar of me, one thousand times my size!" Star decrees, and her Quirk makes it so.

Around and behind her the air gets heavy, invisible to the naked eye but to her, she saw a naked version of herself, a colossus of solid air with the jet at the waist. Smiling fearlessly as the missile gets closer.

She throws a quick jab, and the avatar does the same, making contact head-on with the missile and detonating it a kilometer away.

Star and Agpar fly directly toward it, not that they had a choice with the jet already being inside the 10km blast radius, 2310 technology truly is no laughing matter after all.

With a thought she deactivates her order, and the avatar immediately disappears. She extends her right arm forward after quickly moving to stand at the very nose of the plane, making sure the blast wave would hit her before the plane.

"NEW ORDER: The nuclear explosion and connected shockwave will compress into a spear for me to throw!"

The moment the shockwave touches her hand, exactly what she said occurs.

New Order, the Mystery Class Quirk, bestowing the wielder with the voice of god. Allowing her to speak and bend reality, with limitations of course.

A common trend between the two Quirks of this class to exist.

While Hand Of God makes the user act as god, imposing their will on the world with them standing at the center of their universe, this simply allows the user to become the voice of god, imposing their will on reality through words.

While Hand Of God has much less limits after an ability is created, New Order allows its user to effectively change the world at will, but the trade is that New Order has many more requirements for activation.

But Hand Of God has clear limits in itself. Such as the way it can only exert that much will onto other living beings. Making Law unable to simply grab people and toss them around while alive. Or the fact that every time Law uses Shambles he first locates the object or person within his room, the more focus and energy he takes to perform an in-depth SCAN of the area the faster he will run out of stamina.

It is for this reason he doesn't simply use dust particles to warp about, as focusing on them would completely drain him after two or three warps at best. Anything an average human would be able to see and hold is many orders of magnitude easier and more energy efficient.

But neither Hand of God nor New Order can do truly anything, simply because God cannot tamper with free will.

If these truths were made public, the classification would almost unanimously change from Mystery Class to Divine Class.

So it's to the surprise of no one when the nuclear explosion compresses into a spear shorter than Star herself.

Holding the red spear of energy and force in her grasp, Star rears back her arm and puts her back into a throw. With her immense physical power, currently, the strongest on the planet. Combined with the weightless nature of the spear itself, the clouds above them shatter as a red trailing beam is left in the wake of her throw.

Saving millions of lives and doing more than most of the world's heroes can, with two simple commands...the strength of Mastery Level 80, Mystery Class Quirk.

One-VS-One, compared to every other combatant on the planet, at least in their current state, Star and Stripe is entirely invincible, she simply will not lose.

Agpar simply sits back and continues watching the sports festival, even as a beam of red energy rockets toward the sky and pierces the outer atmosphere.

Sending the nuclear blast safely into space.

"Uh...Star," Agpar says, a hint of concern in his voice. "I'm changing our route to Washington DC."

"Huh, what's going on, did President Harrison call?"

"No, but he will...apparently his doctor is Japan's new rising star."

Star chuckles at that, "that Horizon kid, not surprising since he can warp."

"Yeah, not just warp...looks like you aren't the only Mystery Class anymore..."

Star's smile falters as she stands with her arms folded, raising a finger to tap her chin as she considers what this may mean for them and the world.

Then her smile returns.

"Well then, I can't wait to meet him..."

END CHAPTER---

For anyone wondering, if Star fought Horizon to the death as they are currently...he has almost no chance of surviving. Been waiting for weeks for ya'll to get to this chapter :)
