Perpetual

Izuku Midoriya, Hero Deku, has seen a lot, far from one should in his position. A 17 year old hero who legally shouldn't even have his license yet, unwillingly skipped his third year of hero school, successor to one of the greatest heroes in quirk history, now deceased, 9th holder of the one of the greatest quirks in history, and the sufferer of so much.

"Shoot, did I fall asleep again?" Izuku asked himself, forcing his eyes open as he looked at his surroundings. Looks like he was on just any other building. Strange. Last he remembered, there weren't any towers this tall left in japan, at least at the moment. Maybe he was in another country? Probably the US.

Throwing his mask back on, he charged up as lightning burst around him, and he shot straight off of the building, leaving a small crack on the top of the building as he zoomed across the sky.

And that's when he noticed it.

"UA's new first years show off their immense and diverse power! Is the future in safe hands?" A News bulletin read off, attracting the attention of the dark green cladded hero. At first, Izuku merely thought it was a rerun, albeit it was odd that the anchor was speaking Japanese in what was surely the US, but then he saw who was on the panel. It was...

...senseis?

Nemuri, Aizawa, Hizashi, Oboro...what? Was this just a rerun from so long ago?

Wait...no he recognized that building. That's Tokyo Tower! He was still in Japan, but he knows that the building is rubble now, or at least way too big to be rebuilt that fast, even with the best in the business!

"What the heck is going on?" Izuku asked himself, still streaking across the sky as he kept looking down. "This is definitely tokyo...and definitely not the Tokyo I know."

"Have I...no...no way," Izuku told himself, aiming for a small opening of an alley. That wasn't possible, right? They've already attempted time travel with eri, and no one's seen those notes since eri touched them. Then again, quirks are ridiculous, so it is possible that...

Izuku Landed in the Alley, before stripping his hero suit off. He didn't want any suspicion on him after all. If he really was that far in the past, he didn't want his future self to get into any trouble for him galavanting around in the past.

"I am so glad I keep civilian clothes on me," Izuku said to himself, stuffing his hero suit into his duffel bag, and throwing it around his back, as he wore his new white button up with a green and black yin yang cover. It wasn't very conspicuous, but it's likely he doesn't exist here anyways, so what's he to worry about?

--------------------------------

Apparently a lot.

Not so much about people being curious or worrying about him, more so what he sees.

Way too many girls.

'Even if this is the past, there is no way this many females would be out normally. Doubt it'd be a quirk too,' Izuku thinks to himself, as he wanders the streets of mustafau. 'Then again, I didn't think a quirk could transport me to the past, and here I am.'

"Oof!" Izuku yelped as he walked into someone, slightly tripping, before quickly straightening and catching whoever was falling. "Sorry about that-"

"No problem man! I should've seen that coming," a loud voice responded, one that sounded similar, but not the same.

'Present Mic? No, it's a girl. Did Mic-sensei have a sister?' Izuku thought to himself as he looked at who he walked into. Sure enough, even not in his, or I guess he would say, her hero costume, Yamada Hizashi just had this appearance anyone could see a mile away, with wild dark golden hair, sunglasses, and a small stick attached to a necklace. Izuku remembered that Present Mic once complained about needing his medicine stick again when his quirk went wild. "Uh, okay."

'Damn, he's ripped!' She thought, as he pulled her up off the ground. "Thanks dude! Name's Yamada Heroshi!"

"Uh, Midoriya Izuku," Izuku responds, before an alarm rings from Yamada.

"Shit! Sorry dude, I'll see you later hopefully!" Yamada responds, as she runs off from the previous location.

"Weird. Could've sworn that Mic-sensei didn't have any siblings, much less any that look just like him. Maybe she died?" Izuku thought, before an idea came to him. Remembering his mental map of Mustafau, he goes the route to UA.

--------------------------------

Principal Nozomi.

"What the hell?" Izuku thought out loud as he looked at the staff memoriam. Plenty of names he barely or didn't fully recognize, but if there was a name he should fully recognize, it's the principal, who aside from All Might and Eraserhead, was a top candidate for surrogate dad.

"What the Hell!?" Izuku yelled, still stunned at the prospect. Izuku's Sanity was up to question, and it has been thoroughly established that he's not the greatest in the mental health department. However, when it comes to people he knows and loves, there was no doubt they had a private place in his mind. Nezu was one of them, so much so he had done as much research on the marsupial as the marsupial had done on everyone else. He knew exactly where he was held captive, when he started working for UA, how he became a Proxy Leader, and so much more. He knew as much about Nezu as could be known, and Nezu knew it.

And yet, this Nozomi was taking the place of Nezu at a time when Nezu should be in charge of UA. This was not normal. This shouldn't have happened.

Right?

Thinking past his bias of what should be right, he decided to try something. He learned after the war, from nezu himself, that if he ever needed a direct safe line to Nezu, there was a button near the front gate that was a direct connection to the Principal's Office private number. Before One for all was revealed, it was second to the biggest national secret. That's why Izuku was so shocked he was being told this, but the rational little rat told him it was only logical for the next holder of one for all to know a safe connection to the smartest being on the planet.

Well, second smartest if you counted Saiko on occasion. Kami, he missed her.

Back at the front gate, rather then just the side wall he stopped for far too long at, he felt around the surrounding gate. The gate itself was the same as the time-period he was in, albeit the blue hue was now a red and blue vertical striping. Not terribly sure why.

Sure enough, after enough pressing around...

"Good morning! This is Principal Nozomi, although considering you knew about this button, you already knew that!" A distinct, and once again familiar yet different voice appeared from the intercom.

'No way Nezu had a sister. That is just impossible. Maybe all UA Principal's are just as cheery and sadistic? I mean, it'd set the standard I guess,' Izuku thought.

"Might I ask how you knew about this, because I don't believe I know who you are?" Nozomi asked, as Izuku gulped.

"All for one/One for all. I need help ne-nozomi," Izuku stopped himself, knowing he already made a mistake. Even Denki could've caught that slip-up.

Suddenly, the once closed gate opened intensely fast. "Please come in!" Nozomi's voice appeared at the front door of UA. Surprisingly to the Mammal, Izuku wasn't even fazed at her sudden appearance, but more so about her actual appearance.

It was like looking at Nezu exactly, if Mineta decided to draw him. She was nearly double the height with more humanoid features, including an actual form of white hair on her head, Slightly longer eyelashes, a smaller snout, a barbed tail instead of razor sharp tip, and a more diverse color scheme, with a blue and red suit to compare to this new UA. To Izuku's confusion, she was more like an anthropomorphic creature then before. Did this chimera have a Human involved in her fusion?

"Let's talk through this fast, I don't know how much time we'll have until a student or staff member sees us," Nozomi tells Izuku, who snaps out of his shock as they both walk into the UA building.

As Izuku walked into UA, for the first time in, well ever technically, he was astonished. It looked the same, and yet so different. The textures and style were the same, but the layout and rooms weren't! What was 1-Ω? That didn't exist, did it? Nezu would've covered it up if he didn't like it to be fair, so it wasn't terribly surprising that Izuku didn't know what it was, but still.

1-A was on the other side of the school, yet 1-B was right by the entrance. The front office was nearly three times larger than before! There was so much difference between this UA and his, yet he felt right at home.

Continuing the walk down the hallowed halls of UA, due to everyone being in a class, he looked at some of the wall decorations. Trophies and medals littered cases and glass panels, showing off UA's prestigious reputation. That wasn't there when he went. Did No-Nezu become more humble over the years or something? He didn't recognize the names of any of them either.

Stepping into his ex-principal's office was a weird moment, because unlike the rest of UA, everything was the same. Every nook and cranny, every position of everything. He learned from Nezu to keep everything exactly the same when it comes to an office or similar room. Everything is simpler and less troublesome, and he could confirm. After cleaning his room, and just painstakingly using chalk on every little thing, once everything's in position, it was simply magnificent. Plus, it gave his ADHD and OCD something to focus on while thinking.

"I believe we have a lot to talk about, so tell me what you know about All for one first?" Nozomi offered, but Izuku shook his head.

"I will, but before I tell you anything, I need to tell you off the rib, that I'm from the future. How many years, I'm not sure yet," Izuku responds, as the mammal's eyebrows raised.

"Really! That explains quite a bit more, but also opens up more doors. You do know that Time quirks are especially murky in legality, much more so then normal quirks, right?" Nozomi asked, silently threatening Izuku.

"Of course, which is why I'm very confused, because it was completely against my will. Also, is All Might top of the charts yet?" Izuku asked while responding, receiving a nod from Nozomi.

"Yes, All 'Mighty' is the number one hero in the world concurrently. Is that important?" Nozomi corrected Izuku's question, receiving a confused look from Izuku.

'All Mighty? Okay, now I know something is really off. Nozomi nearly confirmed it, but there is no way All Might had a rebrand at any point,' Izuku thought, before thinking of another question. "Not really, just trying to get a frame of what happened to me...Also, my name is Midoriya Izuku, and scratch my original theory."

"Oh? Do reveal your new one," Nozomi responded, before she started drinking a bit of tea.

"I'm from another universe," Izuku answered, leading Nozomi to quickly gulp her drink, and look at him in surprise.

"Really now? What convinced you of that?" Nozomi asked, as Izuku pulled out a small notepad, and wrote a couple bullet points down.

"1. In my world, you're a guy named Nezu," Izuku started, as Nozomi's eyes widened at the first point. "2. All Mighty, as I said, is All Might in my world. 3. There are way too many girls out and about with no guys. In my world, it's pretty even."

"Intriguing, but unless you can prove it, I'm afraid I must call someone to lead you to the nearest route to Tartarus," Nozomi threatened, and Izuku slightly panics, but collects himself.

"All Might's Quirk is called One For all. It's a stockpiling quirk that is able to be transferred from one to another. Only about...7 or so people know about it, not including me," Izuku blurts out, hoping this world is similar enough to his own.

"Very true..." Nozomi mentions, and Izuku mentally sighs. "However..." He should've seen that coming. "Despite its national Secret ranking, it can still be found with enough diving. Try again please."

Now Izuku is scared. Who would Nozomi bring in if he was wrong or if he couldn't convince her? "Clock is ticking. Please don't prove me right," She threatens, before Izuku remembers something.

"The Bandersnatch is caught by the Jabberwock, but neither will win if the other dies," Izuku reads off, looking right into her beady little eyes, and Nozomi freezes in place.

They stay like that for a moment, before Nozomi straightens her tie. "Could you...repeat that please?" She sounds timid, almost scared at his message.

"The Bandersnatch is caught by the Jabberwock, but neither will win if the other dies," Izuku Repeats, and Nozomi looks at her desk with both fear and intrigue in her eyes, before her neutral expression returns.

"I...see. Did my counterpart tell you that?" Nozomi asks, receiving a nod from the child Soldier Hero. "Ah...Well then, what can I do for you?"

Izuku internally sighs in relief. He did have an ally after all. That message was given to Izuku by Nezu whenever he decided to go off and be his own hero. It was a passcode for all things Nezu. Similarly to the gate button, and while Izuku doesn't understand the meaning, he once again, memorized it for any future reference. Shockingly, he needed both for Past Reference.

"First off, can I get a date? I've found contradicting sources," Izuku asks, and Nozomi nods, turning her computer around to give an exact date.

"It is the twenty fifth of January, 2130." Nozomi reveals, and Izuku feels his world crumble. He knew he was in the past, and he knew he was in an Alternate universe, but hearing it confirmed was traumatizing.

2130. 2130. 2130.

1 year before he was even born.

what...What...WHAT!?

--------------------------------

As Nozomi revealed the Simple fact to Izuku, Izuku started to be...not alright. His eyes started twitching, he was starting to get dizzy, and he was constantly touching things near him, almost like he was checking whether they were real or not.

Nozomi knew exactly what was happening, and hopped off his chair to get right in the Human's face.

"Izuku, listen to me," Nozomi commanded, and Izuku meagerly looked at her. "Tell me 5 things you can touch."

"Uh...the...desk...your fur-I really hope I'm not grabbing a breast...I can feel your paws on me...I...I think that's a carpet, and my clothing."

"Good. Tell me 5 things you can hear."

"I can hear you...uhh...I can hear my heartbeat, I can hear the stupid buzz of the fluorescent lights...The carpet is making static electricity...and I can hear the coffee machine hum down the hall...at least I think that's what it is," With everything listed, Izuku came closer to reality.

"Good. Tell me 4 things you can see."

"uhh...Uhh...I can see the clock, it's 4:12. The bookshelf, there's about 45 or so titles I can see...There's a UA trophy on your desk...and I can see your tie. It's red and black, with diagonal stripes of blue," Izuku lists off, and blinks rapidly, before he stabilizes. "I...I think I'm back."

"Good. I wouldn't want to lose my only sense of possible future reference due to a bout of dissociation. Does this happen often?" Nozomi asks, as Izuku shakes his head.

"No, I think it was just the delayed reaction to being in my world, yet not mine. You can imagine what I'm feeling right now," Izuku answers, and Nozomi nods.

"Then I don't look forward to telling you the remaining facts that must be different," Nozomi reveals, and Izuku nods. "Also, don't worry about accidentally grabbing my chest. You weren't conscious."

Izuku immediately blushes as he consistently apologizes as Nozomi slightly smirks. 'Quite a gentleman, aren't you? I can certainly see why my counterpart was close to you. I Wonder what tea you like?' "Now, I'm assuming you have a quirk?"

Izuku thinks for a moment before speaking. "Are you close to All Might-mighty?"

"I would say we are close allies, yes. Why do you ask?" Nozomi asks in response, intrigued at this question, before he side-eyes left and right.

"If I said I'm the ninth, would that mean anything to you?" Izuku answers with a question, one that Nozomi's eyes raise at. That was an interesting turn of events now isn't it?

"Well, this just became even more unique! The Ninth holder of one for all in another universe, where the 8th is in her prime!" Nozomi responds, and at the mention of 'Her Prime' Izuku passes out. This might take a while to explain to the lad.

--------------------------------

After a couple more faints, Nozomi is able to get the point across to Izuku that this world is mainly female dominated, as only women are able to obtain quirks. Genetics are crazy. Izuku was also able to explain to Nozomi the secrets of One for all, and the fact he basically had multiple quirks.

Sitting in shock for a long time, Izuku finally speaks. "This is going to be so weird."

"I imagine so, considering your reaction to me as well. However, what is important is to figure out what to do with you," Nozomi responds, and Izuku nods. He would be an anomaly, whether or not he was from another world. A Guy with a quirk just doesn't happen here apparently.

"Yeah...Kami," Izuku silently complains, and Nozomi takes notice.

"What's wrong?" Nozomi asks, and Izuku forcefully smiles.

"It's just...I didn't even get to start my third year here, and now, I'm here with my senseis being younger then me...that's just...boggles the mind," Izuku continues, intriguing Nozomi further.

"Do tell who became UA later on?" Nozomi requests.

"Well, in my world, their names were Aizawa Shouta, Yamada Hizashi, and Nemuri Kayama. Saw them at the Sports festival broadcast as first years...they're younger then me...Jeez," Izuku complains to himself. "Aizawa was my homeroom teacher in 1-A. He was...well not so much a dad, but more so just an older brother to me. He meant a lot."

"I can see why this would be confusing, but I believe I have an idea!" Nozomi replies, as Izuku looks over. "Why not become a third year here!"

Izuku blinks in surprise. That...wasn't the craziest of ideas. It was better then his, for sure, but still, what?

"Explain further for me please?" Izuku asked, and Nozomi continued.

"Well, being a third year here would allow you to continue your term, even if it is with minimal classmates, but it should be the same, unless the rhetoric has drastically changed from 15 years and across universes, but I believe that any form of me would make the same rules for our UA's, should we be in charge of one."

"Wait, wait, go back. Minimal Classmates? Is 3-A or 3-B empty or something?" Izuku asked, receiving a 'so-so' gesture from the marsupial.

"3-A is empty, and 3-B has gained the majority of students," Nozomi revealed, and Izuku put the dots together quickly.

"I'm assuming 3-A has Torino?" Izuku asked, assuming that the Senile old hero would definitely make students want to leave his class in pain.

"Correct! Was she a teacher of yours too?" Nozomi asked, receiving a 'so-so' back.

"In terms of One for All, 'he' was the one that helped me learn how to properly wield it. By the way, get All Mighty into teaching classes pronto. Even if she doesn't feel like giving up OFA soon, it'll help her get herself grounded for when she does need to give it up, and it'll help her successor, whether it be me, actually learn OFA," Izuku mumbles out.

"Noted. Now, would you like to continue your term? I already have some great ideas for you if you join, and if you don't, so make your decision now!" Nozomi pressured, but Izuku already had an idea of what he wanted, and Nozomi could tell. "Great! We'll get your uniform underway, and if you'll follow me."

--------------------------------

The two walked out of the office, and wandered towards the Class 3-A homeroom. Izuku had an idea of why Nozomi wanted him here, and after Nozomi knocked on the door in a specific way, he was already out of the way when a yellow boot shot out from the room, followed by an average sized, older woman following the boot out.

"Torino Serahika! Great to see you!" Nozomi replied to the woman, who shot off the wall, landing in between the two.

"Nozomi! What's the kid doing here!" Torino aggressively asked, her cane in the mammal's chest.

"Don't worry Torino. Meet Midoriya Izuku, the 9th holder by technicality!" Nozomi responded, motioning towards the boy, who greeted the surprised woman with an awkward wave.

"Toshi already found a successor, and she chose him!? And what do you mean by technicality!?" Torino asked, anger in her voice.

"Toshinori did choose him, but not our Toshinori. Please, let us sit down so we can explain," Nozomi motioned towards the empty classroom. Torino joined, sneering at Midoriya, who quickly sat down. A younger Torino is both less and more scary.

--------------------------------

After an explanation to the surprised and shocked heroine, she looked at Izuku intently, and shot straight at him. Izuku, danger sense flaring beforehand, grabbed the incoming boot, throwing her like a luchador into a wall.

"HAH! I love this kid! I'm guessing my counterpart got you with that beforehand?" Torino asked, receiving a nod from the 17 year old. "Thanks for stealing my scene, you jackass!"

That got a laugh out of the kid. He needed one.

"So, Nana is really up there?" Torino asked, poking her cane at Izuku's forehead, as Izuku kind of nodded.

"I...think so. I haven't checked since I got here, but if I remember right, and if these universes are similar enough, I think the term, 'Dolphin Cupcake,' should ring a bell?" Izuku asked, and red flushed the elderly heroine's face.

"Alright! Nana, we said we'd take that to the grave!" Torino angrily said through laughter. Izuku and Nozomi joined in after a second.

"Be glad Yagi-er, Yoki isn't here. He pestered you senselessly whenever it came up the first time," Izuku remembered.

"Of course the blockhead would. Love and hate that girl," Torino complains, before a more serious tone comes. "So...about All for one..."

"Indeed Midoriya, it's about time you let us know about the mythical stealer of quirks and their status," Nozomi said, returning to his original plea for help.

"Right. Long story, but then again, we have all the time, so let's get started. Remind me of the date?" Izuku asks.

"Twenty fifth of January, 2130," Nozomi responds, as Izuku nods in recognition.

"Okay. First off, keep a very close eye on the Shimura family. If not stopped, One of the kids becomes one of the most powerful villains in the future," Izuku quickly says, but before they can respond with surprise at a Shimura kid being a villain, "Yeah, yeah i know, ironic about the Shimura connection, but let's keep the train going. Keep an eye on Endeavor's family too. I don't know if this Endeavor is like mine, but odds are she'll probably end up as a domestic abuser. She'll get better when my UA year starts, but if we can get it through her head earlier, not only will she not injure any of hi-her kids, but one of those kids won't be falsely killed and become a villain."

"I can do that," Nozomi says, fury in her voice at the prospect of a U.A. Alumni turning into a child abuser. Not on her watch.

"I can keep an eye on the Shimuras. I owe it to Nana," Torino says.

"Also, I don't know for certain, but in my world, the father, so mother in this world maybe, was allegedly an abuser as well. Investigate that," Izuku continues the train of awfulness. "Not confirmed, but still, keep an eye out more on them."

"Gotcha," Torino says. If either parent turns out to be so, then Fuck-it, she'll get Toshi involved.

"Okay. By the way, I'm just getting through everything that made AFO even more of a pain to deal with, before I get to them in specific. Just, letting you know," Izuku said, as the two nodded in response. "Okay. There's a...first year right now, but second year at the time, Shirakumo, that will be kidnapped/killed in a work studies massacre, and brought back as an undead being that was named Kurogiri. He was a massive boon to the villain side because he was augmented to be a teleporter, but we did eventually get him back by reminding him of who he was, but it'd probably be best to keep him alive."

"Agreed. I will work with their hero in question to protect him. Do you remember who he interned with?" Nozomi asked.

"I...think it was purple highness, no idea who that is in this world. Also, there's a gen-ed student named Shouta Aizawa, at least in my world. I already told this to Nozomi, but he became my Homeroom teacher in 1-A. Get him into the Hero course as soon as possible. He becomes a fantastic hero, and by the way, Nozomi I need to talk with you about changing the Entrance exams for hero course. Long story, but many awesome heroes of my time started not in hero courses," Izuku continues, almost skipping over his words as he mumbles them out.

"Slow down kid. We're not leaving anytime soon," Torino said, patting the kid on his back.

"Right," Izuku said, before taking a deep breath. "Okay...aside from that, I think UA will be fine in general. Okay, another family of people you need to check out is the Toga's. Not too sure, but they're most likely quirkist, and their daughter becomes yet another very powerful villain if she's not helped. No idea where they are, but if not dealt with, she becomes completely unhinged."

"I'll get detectives on it," Nozomi responds.

"There's another...you know what, I'll just get a piece of paper and write down future B-S class villains to stop before they become villains. Major things. I assume you're familiar with the MLA?" Izuku asks, receiving a nod of approval from both. "They're still around. Their 'Grand Commander' is currently head of Deternat, and they'll be a real pain due to their amount of numbers if we don't disband them. Along those lines, there will be a school district named Aldera. Don't know for certain, but I think the MLA is using it as an indoctrination clinic. Not confirmed."

"Noted. At what level would you classify the MLA in their current state?" Nozomi asks, still serious.

"At this point, not sure. But at the time they started war, Potential IK-Class Scenario," Izuku murmured out, attempting to recall the "End of the world" scenarios he was taught, and judging from the reactions of the heroines, he got the right one. "That only happens if they're able to merge with AFO's group successfully, which if we can get at least the Shimura thing dealt with, it will be massively delayed."

"Majorly noted," Torino replied.

"Okay...what else...umm there's an arms-dealer working at I-island, or at least there will be, that is working for AFO in secret, and will attempt to use David Shield's quirk enhancer against him. It takes a lot of All Might to take him down," Izuku recalls, not mentioning his involvement. "There's a group called humarise that's sort of like MLA, but smaller, and they want the eradication of quirks. They have a lot of mercenaries and they really know how to use their quirks, ironically." The two nodded in response. They're still following. "Uhh...in like 15 years, a yakuza group called the Shie Hassakai will become prominent because they actually created a way to eradicate quirks. Not related to Humarise by the way. The way they do it is by using the blood of a little girl who's quirk can 'rewind' objects and persons. Her name is Eri. The leader of this yakuza group, at least in my world, was named Kai Chisaki, and his quirk was called overhaul. It allows him to manipulate atoms and molecules directly by physical contact. Currently, the Shie Hassakai is led by, I think Kai's father, probably mother, at this time, and he's actually a decent guy, or at least it seems like it is. I can't confirm the parental association, but I think it's family related. Also, Nozomi, remind me to talk to you about the HPSC in a private place."

Nozomi became visibly intrigued at that, and nodded happily, while Torino Scoffed. "Of course you also wanna take down those bastards."

"Believe me, at least getting them under control now will make things much easier later on," Izuku says, remembering his time with Hawks and Lady Nagant. "Uh...oh right. AFO's biggest bodyguard, literally and figuratively, Gigantomachia, should be just standing in a field by a mountain range. I have no idea where exactly, as I wasn't there whenever he was finally moved. I think that's all non-AFO related villain crap. If I think of anything else I'll put it in the list. Now, onto AFO."

Nozomi immediately takes out a notepad out of nowhere, which slightly confuses Izuku. He thought only he had that ability!

"Uhh, in 2136, somewhere in July, AFO will ambush All Might-y in an abandoned building. All Mighty will win, but AFO isn't killed, only majorly injured. All Mighty will also get Majorly injured on her...left side of her chest. This requires her lung and stomach to be taken out, and she can only use One for all for a limited amount of time afterwards," Izuku says, in his mind, the most important thing, and both can see why. If All Mighty becomes limited, then the future's in jeopardy. "AFO will, as said, be majorly injured, but won't be killed. Problem is, All Mighty will assume she is dead. All for one will suffer tremendous facial injuries and be comatose for at most 5 years, but most likely less then that. At the time, if the injury to All Mighty isn't prevented, by the time those 5 years are up, she'll only be able to use One for all 3 hours a day, and it'll only limit further from that point if she doesn't stop being a heroine."

"Are you suggesting that All Mighty stop doing hero work after this fight?" Nozomi asks, because that is a big suggestion.

"Only if she does get injured. If not, she'll probably be fine, but in my world, Sir nighteye, my all Might's sidekick, said that if All Might did stop doing hero work and rested after the injury, he would likely have had much more time with One for all," Izuku explains further, as Torino scoffs.

"Of course the dolt would continue doing hero work at the expense of his life," Torino remarks, and Izuku slightly nods.

"I...think that should be everything important that we can prevent in recent years. There will be more, but it'll come up eventually. Now, once again, this is all conjecture. This is all what happens in my world, and it might happen differently here, I'm not sure," Izuku finishes, and both Nozomi and Torino nod in understanding and agreement.

"This information does not leave this room unless we all agree, right?" Torino asks, and both respond positively.

"Well, that was enlightening. Midoriya, will you follow me? We must get you measured up for the first Male Hero course uniform!" Nozomi mentions, as Izuku follows her out the room. Torino however grabs Izuku before they leave.

"Take care of yourself kid, cause that's what you still are," Torino orders, and Izuku slightly smirks.

"I'm the only one that can, aren't I?" Izuku remarks, before Torino nods, and they leave the room.

"Wise words, but remember, you're not the only one in this battle anymore," Nozomi mentions, and Izuku chuckles.

"Believe me, I've had that message beaten into me too much as it is," Izuku replies, as Nozomi nods.

'I hope he follows through on that message,' Nozomi thinks, before they arrive at the support department, and Nozomi gets an idea.

"Say Midoriya, are you a licensed hero?" Nozomi asks, and Izuku panics. He knows the tone of Nezu, no matter how different they are. It's the, 'I've got a great idea, and you're part of it,' voice.

"Yes? Also, you can just call me Izuku," Izuku responds, pulling out his license out of his satchel and handing it to the marsupial.

"Excellent!" Nozomi responds, looking over the license. "The date is incorrect, but we'll handle that another time. Might I ask why the name?"

"Erm, it was originally a demeaning nickname, as I was quirkless before OFA, but someone important to me turned it into a more supportive quote, and I just kind of kept it," Izuku said, fondly remembering his first friend at UA.

"Ahh. Well, I suppose we'll have to change that too won't we? Can't have two Dekus whenever your counterpart comes to UA, can we?" Nozomi instantly replied, kind of shooting down Izuku's fond memories with logic.

"Oh...uh yeah I guess," Izuku said, nervous and slightly peeved at how Nozomi didn't seem to care about his emotions, but then again, he knew Nezu well enough to know the mammal was mostly left-side brain then right.

"Well worry about that whenever we redo your license," Nozomi spurts out, and Izuku shakes his head in surprise. I mean, it makes sense, but isn't he a third year now? That was the original plan, right? Nozomi looked at him, with that stupidly creepy smile. "Of course we'll redo your license Izuku! I mean, how else could you be a UA Guardian?"

Now Izuku was spiraling. The UA Guardian program was a program first made whenever UA was attacked and a couple students passed away. A Guardian was usually an underground hero who was sent into a mute and completely covered attire, before they started their guardian duties, which usually included patrolling around the school, protecting certain students, monitoring students in general, and simply protecting the school in general, sort of like a private hero. Occasionally they would take place in certain tests or student lessons, but they would never speak with that uniform on. They would also run errands, if you can call them that, for the Principal. Whether or not those errands were shady is up for debate.

You could only be a UA Guardian if you were a licensed Hero, EMT, detective, and were allowed to use firearms and quirks. Even then, you have to be on really good terms with the school to be a Guardian. Strange thing that Izuku realized was that he DID meet all those requirements. He was a licensed hero, he learned EMT from Recovery girl, Detective stuff with Tsuchakchi and Aizawa, and the fact that Snipe gave him and Shinsou firearms training was enough to be firearm licensed.

"I can see you're confused, but you really shouldn't be. It's the most logical choice. Besides, being a guardian, which you definitely know about, doesn't take away your third year course. It'll be complicated, but I'm sure having a double life isn't something new, is it?" Nozomi asks, and Izuku slightly cringes. Yep, he's dealt with that. "Well then, why not?"

"I...guess it works. Just, a lot more piled on. I'm gonna accept of course, I can probably stop Shirakumo from turning into Kurogiri, but still it's...it's just a whole lot going on."

"I understand your position, but you must remember that we're going to be relying on you to help us prevent a devastating future. It's not a simple task, but nothing is for you, is it number nine?" Nozomi joked, and Izuku just rolls his eyes, before Nozomi politely knocks on a large metal door, and out comes a Blue and red armored woman.

"Yes Nozomi?" She asked, as Izuku trembled. That...That was the legendary support hero "Hiro!" He knew he, or I guess they, worked at UA previously, but they were long dead by the time he knew about them. Mei would be so jealous, he's sure.

"Might I trouble you to go into deep storage for a dive?" Nozomi asked, surprising the heroine, even more so then Izuku's presence.

"Uhh, sure. I'll get the keys. What do you need in Deep Storage?" Hiro asked, searching on a nearby desk.

"Just a little something for Project Guardian," Nozomi replied, shocking the heroine even more.

"Guardians? Uhh, okay. That ain't the kid, right?" Hiro asked, concern in her voice.

"Of course not! I wouldn't be that crazy, would I?" Nozomi replied, before catching the keys that Hiro threw towards her.

"You absolutely would be. Whatever, just lock it after you're done," Hiro said, before closing the metal door, and the two leave to an abandoned dusty door.

"So that's what this door was," Izuku mentions, as Nozomi unlocked the door, spraying cobwebs and dust everywhere as the door opened.

"It's not often deep storage is used, so it's not surprising that you ever figured out this door's purpose. However, the guardian project's original uniform and plans are down here, so we must venture down," Nozomi explained, as they started their descent down the declining ramp of a floor.

The two continued down until they reached a specific crate, covered in "GUARDIAN" and "PROJECT GUARDIAN" Tags. Nozomi ripped some off, and motioned for Izuku to open the box.

"I give to thee, the Guardian Uniform!" Nozomi said, as the box was opened revealing on top a rather plain outfit. A Tan suit with orange accents, a buckle in an X shape, a yellow helmet, reminiscent of a motorcycle helmet, thick gloves, a white undersuit, and large boots. It looked like a second generation hero suit with how plain it was, but Izuku didn't care...well at least not that much.

"Mind if I make some modifications to it?" Izuku asks, receiving a very sinister smirk from the mammal.

"Of course! It's yours now after all!" Nozomi mentioned, patting him on the back. Izuku had a perfect plan for the outfit, because he still has his own hero suit. A mixture of the two would be just what he wanted, and if Nozomi's expression meant anything, he'd have the resources to make it too.

--------------------------------

To bed, in his own room too! Apparently, there were dorms in UA, at least in this world, but they were mostly empty. Just fine for what Izuku needed. He needed to keep track of everything he could remember and prevent.

For now though, he needed sleep. Today was really tiring, and he needed some time to himself in his mind.

Maybe he'd see the previous users? He needed some friends who knew what he was going through.

Well, at least he thought.

Waking in the familiar void of One for all, he was slightly stunned to see...no one? Odd. Maybe they didn't follow him? That'd be a shame.

Then he got whacked in the back of the head by what felt like 7 hands.

"Who the hell are you!?" The semi-familiar, but not quite, voice of the 2nd user yelled to Izuku as he jumped back into a fighting position. No...it couldn't be...

"T-two?" Izuku stammered out, as his expression shifted from anger, to shock, to depression. In front of him were the previous 7 users, but they weren't the ones he knew.

They were the ones of this world.

"FUCK!"
