CHAPTER START---

---Undisclosed Location, 2 AM...

Walking onto a private runway was a tall and bulky man, muscles well hidden beneath his black shirt and white trench coat.

In his right hand was a black duffel bag, red, matching his wild hair. He wore combat pants with matching boots, and had an uneasy look on his face.

Looking up at the moon he checks his surroundings, only seeing desert plains around him for miles and miles, along with the jeep he just spent the last three days driving to this spot.

And in front of him is a completely pitch-black private jet with no markings on it, not even windows.

Approaching the jet he raises a brow, "I'm here! And I hope you don't think just because I can control metal that I can fly this thing."

The door opens, dropping down to become a set of stairs as the engines start up. The now familiar hum of a modern all-electric jet reaches his ears.

Walking into the jet he isn't greeted by anyone, the door simply closes behind him as it begins aligning itself on the runway to takeoff.

Wolfram immediately puts a hand on a metal part of the inner wall, and a single blue spark shows his Metal Manipulation Quirk in full effect, "you better start talking before taking me anywhere."

"This vehicle is unmanned, one of my more luxurious drones," a sickly voice says through the speakers. "I am Tech, your new employer. Please, have a seat."

"Ok, I just spent days in the hot-ass desert driving to this place, so make it worth my time," Wolfram says as he drops his bag on the seat, and immediately begins looking for something to drink.

"Yes, help yourself to anything you want, it shall be a long flight to Japan."

"Japan?" Wolfram asks as he walks back to the seats with a bottle of champagne.

"Oh, right. You weren't in range of any information services these past few days. Please, watch this..."

As Wolfram is pouring himself a glass a hologram appears on the table in front of him.

"What is this?" he asks as Principal Nezu appears to give a press conference.

"Your destination."

"Tch, UA? Well, we're gonna have to renegotiate my price if this is the kind of risk you want me to take. Japan may be a bit messy at the moment, but their main guard dog spends half his time in that school."

"Precisely, only half his time. Some simply studying, and cleverly engineered disasters, will allow you to know exactly where he'll be."

"Ok, but that doesn't explain why---"

Wolfram stops talking as the recording stars, and David Shield walks onto the stage.

"---Oh."

The recording skips ahead a bit to where Nezu, David, Yagi, and Horizon are standing on stage. And that's where it pauses.

"Two days ago David Shield was announced to have taken a teaching position at UA. The official story is that after you attacked I-Island and nearly killed him and his daughter, his desire to directly help the next generation of Pro Heroes was re-ignited.

That led to him taking this teaching position to help the 'next great hero' while he can. It's just a big flashy stunt to say he's at UA to help out Horizon and the other students after he almost died."

"And the truth?" Wolfram asks, downing his glass and refilling it.

"They know we'll come for Melissa Shield, and force her father to repair his device. So they put them in the best thing short of Tartarus with people they trust. So we may assume All Might, Nezu, and atleast Horizon know about the device."

"To think my life would get so complicated because of this thing," Wolfram reaches into his bag and takes out the shattered bits of the Quirk Amplification Device. A broken metal helmet-like contraption.

"Yes, first All For One hires you to steal it, then he gets arrested so now I'm stepping in as the new employer."

"Didn't think there were two shady guys like you that would hire me so quickly, but hey, the money is too good to pass up."

"I know how to motivate people. You will leave those components in the jet when you land, I'll fly them back to my main base and try to figure it out myself."

"Can you?"

"Unlikely, atleast not in this form. The fact that he was able to fit multiple supercomputers worth of processing power into a helmet is...miraculous. The man truly is the greatest engineer this world has ever seen."

"You sound like a fan."

"Only a distant admirer. Now, may I know your plan and timeline to bring me Melissa Shield?"

Wolfram looks at the hologram, all the men standing on stage. "I'll have to wait a few weeks for them to get comfortable at UA. When people are used to a routine they're more likely to make mistakes, that's when I can strike. As for my plan, my old team died at I-Island. I'll have to make new allies here."

"The League Of Villains?"

"No. I want to keep a low profile, and if they could have, they would have already attacked that school. They're more scared of Horizon than anyone else, because he's actually gunning for them. I don't want him actively looking for me alongside them."

"Projected timeline for this mission?"

"Hmm, capture the girl, force her dad to finish the project by using her as leverage, keep Horizon distracted while this is all happening...within 3 months you'll have it on the doorstep of your mansion."

"Sky Palace," Tech corrects him. "But that will do quite well. When this is completed and your payment is received, I'll have more contracts to be completed over the following 6 months."

Wolfram laughs, "with how well you pay, just consider me on retainer after this job. Hell, if I can pull one over on Horizon there isn't anything I can't do, so of course my price will be higher, but you can more than afford it."

"Naturally, my goals are beyond money, spare no expense in the pursuit of your dreams after all."

"My dream is money, because power can be bought, and I've already got power enough" Wolfram flexes his arm, his skin glows slightly red as his Muscle Augmentation Quirk activates before going back to normal.

"Power is the path to silence..."

"Well, I'm sure silence must mean a lot to you if that's what this is for," Wolfram downs another glass of champagne and gets up. "What kind of food does this thing have anyway..."

---1A Dorms, 7 AM...

SHAMBLES

Horizon warps into the common area, in full Hero Costume, ready to get the day started.

But before that, he immediately turns toward one of the tables, where Shoto, Kirishima, and Bakugo, were having breakfast before going off to do some Quirk training.

"Hey idiot," they all look up, not sure who he was referring to. But Horizon just takes out his phone and hands it to Shoto. "Speak..."

"Who---"

"Your dad, probably wants to know why you are one of the few people here to fail the License Exam."

"I don't want to talk to him," Shoto tries to hand the phone back.

"He's been bothering me all morning, and unlike you, I actually work with him. Just talk to him before I warp you into his office."

Shoto narrows his eyes at Horizon but just gets up and takes the call outside, for some privacy.

"I swear the Todoroki's are the fucking worst..." Horizon mutters.

"You know, the exam really was a lot harder this year," Kirishima says. "You don't have to be so hard on them. I mean it is tougher because of what you were saying on tv."

"Good, this era needs better heroes, and as Silver Medal learned," he gestures to Bakugo. "Being strong isn't everything. And all the other idiots who failed learned that they aren't strong enough and need to work on that, but they've got the other things down properly. Only having 50 people pass per venue is good for the country."

"Yeah, but you don't have to be mean about it, not manly at all bro."

"Yeah I'm not taking advice from a brick," Horizon says.

"Brick?" Kirishima actually thinks about it for a moment, "ohhhh! Because of my Quirk, that's pretty clever!"

"No, because of your brain..."

As Kirishima just sits down and tries to enjoy the rest of his breakfast, Shoto walks back in and hands his phone back.

Then without a word he just sits down and continues eating.

"I'm ready!" Sero calls out as he walks into the room, a suitcase in one hand and the metal case with his Hero Costume in the other, dressed casually.

"Huh, where are you guys going?" Mina hops off the couch and rushes over. "Can I come, we've been locked in the dorms for weeks no! They won't even let me go shopping!"

"Because you failed the exam Pinky," Horizon says. "Besides, this is a training trip. We've got a week before school starts up and Sero will be spending it in Tokyo with me."

"Yeah," Sero says. "Now that I've got my license he convinced Principal Nezu to let me go work with him for a week. Taking my training to the streets, we'll be a pair of crime-fighting heroes for a while"

"A temporary partnership until you don't need me anymore," Horizon says.

"That's so manly! Helping people for real!" Kirishima actually sheds a tear for the moment, causing a few people to give him strange looks.

"Right. Sero, let's go before he starts wanting to hug people..." Horizon rests a hand on Sero's shoulder and they both warp away, to an armored car waiting outside of UA to drive them to Tokyo...

To train one of the passing students of the Provisional License Examination.

Because as they said, due to Horizon's influence the exams were much harder. Moving from only 1500 people being accepted to only 50.

And because of this, the crowd thinned that much more around Horizon.

'Kaminari- Deceased

Sato- Deceased

Koda- Deceased

Mina- Failed her exam

Jiro- Failed her exam

Bakugo- Failed his exam

Shoto- Failed his exam

Shoji- Failed his exam

Ojiro- Failed his exam'

Step by step, Horizon is forcing Japan's Pro Heroes to become better and better, but this earned the resentment of an untold number of people, on both sides...

CHAPTER START---

---6 AM, Horizon's Penthouse, Minato Tokyo...

Pacing around his bedroom, Sero was buzzing with excitement. A massive smile splits his face as he dries his hair, walking over to his dresser where the metal case for his Hero Costume was resting.

"Finally, time for the big reveal..." he giggles madly while opening the case.

"Wow," he takes a small step back, laying eyes on his brand-new costume for the first time. "So this is what he and Mei came up with, nice..."

After getting dressed, his modified Hero Costume keeps the same design as the original.

With his visor resembling a tape dispenser, something Horizon tried and failed to talk him out of.

The yellow, black, and white colors are exactly as before.

But the most notable changes are the much more reinforced boots and a functional utility belt with small compartments for first aid and other accessories.

But standing up, now fully dressed, he turns around to look at his back in the mirror.

He sees thing carbon fiber rectangles running down his spine, across the back of his arms and legs. Connecting to the soles of his boots.

"Ok, guess I need the manual," Sero takes the instructions out of the case and sits on the bed with them.

Looking at the diagram and then raises his arm, he sees an opening where his Quirk dispenses tape on his elbow.

"Ok so I feed tape into this thing from my elbows, then I just use these..." he looks at his gloves, seeing small buttons on them. "Wait...crap, I should have opened this thing last night and loaded it! That way I could have started with a full set of tape for the day and had the gear loaded up."

He holds his head in frustration, seeing the gear itself can independently hold a few hundred feet of tape.

"I should be fine, I doubt I'll ever use that much, hopefully. Plus this thing lets me shoot the tape farther so it should be more efficient."

Taking a look at the last few pages of the instructions he raises a brow at the diagram, "so they built in Super-Moves for me, that's useful..." he says before getting up and stretching a few times, feeling comfortable, as if the costume wasn't even there.

Looking down at his chest, he sees a side view of his visor in the middle of his chest, made to look like a yellow tape dispenser, "time to go help some people, for real this time, no more kid games."

Packing away his things in this massive bedroom, as big as the apartment he and his dad live in, Sero appreciates how much his life has changed for the better since UA, and even more so since meeting Horizon.

Until the scent of eggs and bacon reaches his nose, "mmm, but first, breakfast. Heroes have to eat too," he begins walking toward the door, but stops at the mirror to take one last look at himself. Taking out his phone and sending a picture to his dad.

"Yeah, hero..."

Entering the hallway Sero looks left to see Minato Tokyo just about to start waking up, taking in exactly how high up they are. At the top floor of this skyscraper.

Walking toward the kitchen he takes off his visor, holding it under his arm. Sadly he didn't have the same equipment as Horizon to get a visor that folds down, atleast not yet.

"That smells great!" Sero says from around the corner, "but I thought you said we'd just buy brea---" and he immediately freezes, coming face to face with a curvy blonde standing at the stove, wearing only a robe and a pair of Horizon's slippers.

They both just lock eyes, and an awkward silence ensues. Sero immediately recognizes her, and stiffly turns around, returning to his room.

Five minutes later Sero walks into the kitchen, seeing Horizon in his full Hero Costume sitting at the table enjoying a plate of scrambles eggs and toast.

Beside him is the same woman, now wearing a t-shirt and some shorts, enjoying a cup of coffee with her breakfast.

And Sero just awkwardly slides into the third seat with a plate already set out for him.

"Sooooooo," Sero looks between both of them. "What's Pixie-Bob doing here?"

"Ryuko," she says. "Just call me Ryuko, Pixie-Bob is retired."

Horizon just sits back and keeps enjoying breakfast.

"Wow! Since when? Are all the Wild Wild Pussycats retiring?"

"No just me," she gives a forced smile. "I just decided to go a different way with my life."

"Ohh, yeah. Well, you chose the right time atleast. Every Pro Hero is under a lot of stress right now. Even the students. All the 2nd and 3rd-year students at UA are out in the field right now."

"Yeah, I've been following the news. If I could balance everything I would but I just had to pick, and I guess being Pro-Hero wasn't as important to me as I thought. Some things are just a bit more important, you know?"

"He knows," Horizon says. "I chose Sero for my team because he knows. He won't stupidly sacrifice himself so easily, because he has a selfish desire to take care of his family. To actually be alive to spend time with them."

Sero just gives an awkward smile, still not a fan of how Horizon calls 'Heroic Spirit' stupid.

"Well if Horizon is working with you then I'm sure you'll do great, what's your Hero Name? I don't think I worked with you at the training camp."

"Oh, Cellophane!"

"Like...the wrap?"

"Exactly!" he looks at Horizon "See, it's not stupid."

"It is," Horizon says.

"A little bit," Ryuko says. "But atleast people will hear it and immediately know what you're capable of, that's the goal after all. Like 'All Might'."

"Says the woman who chose 'Pixie-Bob'. but has no cat powers," Horizon says.

"It's a theme, you'll get it when you have a full team. Like Endeavor and his fire team."

"Teams are just how weak people compensate, a dozen ants still can't fight a dragon."

Ryuko just growls and sticks her tongue out at him, then they go back to eating.

"Wait," Sero just realizes something. "You never said why you're here, you weren't here last night when we got here, right?"

"Uhhh, well. You see. Being a Pro-Hero doesn't really leave you much in the way of monetizable skills when you retire, and since we weren't exactly super popular or anything..."

"She needs to find a job," Horizon says. "She and her team lost all their sponsors and partnerships after the summer camp, Nezu dealt with the legal fees but it's still a pretty shit situation."

"Oh," Sero nods along. "But why is she here?"

"Oh, I got a job interview in Tokyo!" Ryuko almost hops out of her seat in excitement. "But since I don't live here I just called Horizon to crash here for the next few days."

"Oh," Sero looks between them as he finishes his breakfast. Not sure if his theory was right. "So, are you two...like, uhhhh."

"Oh, we're just friends," Ryuko says.

"But we do have sex sometimes," Horizon causes both Sero and Ryuko to choke on their food. She gives him an annoyed glance, "what? If I didn't trust him to shut his mouth then you two never would have met here, besides. He's my sidekick because he's not a moron, he already figured it out..."

"But still," Ryuko pouts.

"I'm not your Sidekick," Sero says. "Atleast don't say that in public, the whole point of this is so I never have to be a Sidekick remember?"

"I know, I know, now finish your food and meet me on the roof."

Horizon immediately warps away, leaving Ryuko and Sero at the table.

As Sero is finishing Ryuko processes what Horizon just said, "wait, why are you meeting him on the roof, that's weird."

"It's Horizon, he's rarely normal," Sero shrugs and finishes his breakfast, "so, you'll be staying with us all week?"

"Or until I get the job, it comes with a small apartment," Ryuko says, looking around at the penthouse she'd never be able to afford. "But if I'm being honest, I could get used to this..."

---3 Minutes Later...

Stepping out of the elevator and walking onto the helipad, Sero sees Horizon sitting on his Hoverboard with his feet hanging off the side, floating above the ground.

"Ready for your first day of Hero Work?"

"I've been waiting all my life for this!"

"Good," Horizon gestures to the edge of the roof, "just jump and we can get started."

"Uh...jump?"

"Mobility, its what separates people like Endeavor and All Might from people like Jeanist. That's why I've got this," he taps the Hoverboard. "Without it, I'm less consistent, well, I was. I could get away without it now once I don't have to leave Tokyo. But Tokyo is almost 100km wide, it was half that 300 years ago in 2014, and I'll probably just keep expanding."

"Ok, so more mobility lets you get to the scene before others and that makes you more effective, right?"

"Exactly, and what's your mobility?"

"Swinging from stuff!"

"Good, but this isn't UA where the tallest thing you'll have to get over is the Zero Pointers, this is the real world. And this is the tallest building in Minato Tokyo, if you can swing from this, you can swing from anything."

"Right," Sero puts on his visor and walks to the edge, looking down, 160 floors separate him and the street below.

820m till splat.

"Do you need a push?"

"No!" Sero looks at Horizon, thankfully seeing him unmoving. "I just, need a second..."

"No, you need to stop being a pussy, Takt."

Sero immediately feels himself being lifted off the floor, as if there was a hand on his back raising him toward the sky.

"Wait! I thought you couldn't move living things!" Sero yells as Horizon lifts him over the edge.

"Did you not read the instructions?"

"I skimmed them!" Sero yells, unable to move his arms or legs.

"Then you know your new suit is fully reinforced to take more pressure. That means you've got some very durable parts that I can grab onto...its why armor doesn't really work against me."

"Wait!"

"Good luck, Cellophane," Horizon says before he drops him off the side of the building.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" Sero scream echoes through the cold morning air as his first day of Hero Work begins...
