The Early 80's

My early time in this world was lax and mostly consisted of adjusting my mental state to the fact I was here. My new name in particular was something I wanted to completely believe was mine. Discarding the notion I had another name in my previous life was paramount for one of my quirks to work properly. Other similar mental adjustments were made internally to accept this was my new existence. So it came to be that the early years of my life were mostly spent meditating and ruminating on life.

The act of meditation was not without ulterior motives either. Sure I wanted to adjust to my new life as quickly as possible, that was a part of it. Additionally it helped get my mind off being treated like a child. I thought about showing advanced mental faculties several times but I really did not want to seem like a possessed demon spawn. If obscurus were hunted down and persecuted I didn't feel like gambling to see what what would happen with a seemingly possessed child. Above those reasons were the memories of Snape screaming 'Clear your mind!'. Those memories were a big motivator to meditate and try to get a head start on occlumency.

Reality is cruel however.

At most I would call myself a monk after these years of meditation. I would certainly not call myself an occlumens. Having no guide on what to do or how to do the magic portion of it all made any idea of becoming an occlumens impossible. Not to mention I had no way to test if my efforts were in anyway effective.

So apart from letting my physical body develop enough so I could walk, I simply played along with the Tonks family view on child development. The last four years were me basically lazing around gratifying my parent attempts to 'teach' me to speak, walk, and even shit. It was far more of a mental drain than I originally predicted to play along. Luckily it all changed on my fifth birthday when I began manifesting my quirks. A year late but I couldn't complain.

March 1985 was really the start of my life as a full blown transmigrator. The first quirk to manifest was New Order...sort of. The deity said my powerset was based on my favorite character Nine. Nine was interesting because he was basically a knock off All for One. Nine was named as such because he could have an additional eight quirks on top of All for One. All this is to say that technically my first quirk was a weaker version of All for One. So I guess I should call myself Ten? Anyways.

This version of All for One was completely stripped down, it was nothing more than a container for my nine other quirks from what I could tell. It was not a welcome surprise as it made me even more aware that the deity was trying to fill me with advantages. Whatever reason the One Above All was asking for reincarnates seemed more annoying by the day. However the additional quirk I didn't wish for came with an important perk. It helped identify the abilities of the quirk that I awakened and gave me a general gist of how to use it.

Naturally the second I identified I could use New Order, I immediately used the quirk. My first order being: <Henry Osiris Tonks has Elizabeth Braddocks ability of Reality Anchoring>.

New Order was a ridiculously powerful quirk that provided a low level of reality warping, allowing one to declare two rules into existence. Low level because I couldn't just declare myself invincible and that be the end of it. In its home world it was used by Stars and Stripes to emulate the effects of Allmight's quirk. With my first order I was doing the same but with more defined terms. My goal being that the order would provide something as close as possible to Psylockes Reality Anchoring as it could.

The reason I declared this order as soon as I could was that reality anchoring should at full strength provide immunity to magic, psionics, alterations to the space-time continuum, and imperceptibility to most high tier entities. Whether this was still the world of Marvel or not I was now aware deity's existed so avoiding the eyes of such entities would be ideal. Not to mention, if this was still the Marvel world somehow, the Ancient One now couldn't see me with any time shenanigan's. Well only if the order worked properly. There was no great way available to test if it worked yet but I had to gamble on the idea that it had.

The second order that followed was declaring <Henry Osiris Tonks has complete control of his mind>. Screw occlumency I had found my own solution to the legilimens issue. Not what I originally had in mind but good enough.

Time passed and soon September came rolling around. This was supposed to be when my compulsory first year education as a citizen of the Isles would start. Personally I believed I would be home schooled and get to laze around the house. Most wizards were completely inept when it came to the muggle world because they were home schooled and never interacted with muggles. With a fully magical household I reasoned this would be the case for me as well.

I was wrong.

It seemed whether I liked to admit it or not I still struggled with the idea of this being a real world. In reality Ted Tonks was a muggle born wizard who worked at a muggle bank. Muggle born wizards didn't have great prospects finding decent work in the magical world and opted for blending into muggle society. It was in fact the best option to provide for themselves and their families.

Naturally a household that interacted with muggles would not allow their offspring to be ignorant of muggles. This resulted in me being forced to attend a muggle primary school. I was dreading the fact I would be surrounded by children and forced to go through the fresh hell of interacting with them with my adult mind. As luck would have it a few days before my schooling started my second quirk manifested.

The second quirk to appear was Clones. This was a quirk I had a love hate relationship with. On the one hand it was quite gross to use as the weird substance that comes out of my mouth was not a great experience. On the other hand the fact I basically had the most powerful cheat in Naruto was a rather large upside. When it originally manifested I could at most produce two clones with some strain.

Two clones were enough however as I personally didn't attend school thanks to one of them. The poor clone who had to deal with primary education all over again had my respect. Having only two clones was not the greatest and for a time it was limiting. Limitations aside however, I still set off on exploiting the ability the best way I knew how. Gathering knowledge.

With Nymphadora leaving a pile of books around the house from her previous years attendance at Hogwarts, it was rather easy to find a few books to start my path on magic. Soon a routine set in where Clone #1 would attend primary school while Clone # 2 and I set off on hiding around the house reading any books on magic we could get our hands on. I would constantly try to produce more clones so I could read even more of these books.

Time continued to pass in this way until we were once more approaching my birthdate. March 1986 was when my third quirk manifested. The timing of the manifestation made me theorize that my quirks would awaken every six months give or take. The proof being that the third quirk manifestation occurred once more on my birthdate. The quirk that manifested was Creation.

With the awakening of the Creation quirk I decided to set a New Order to replace my mental control order with. The order being <Henry Osiris Tonks can understand the molecular structure of anything he touches>. I planned for this order to be interchanged with my mental control order when necessary. Unfortunately with Creations awakening I began to realize that I would not be able to avoid learning occlumency like every other reincarnated before me.

It's not like I had no way to exploit the interchanging of the two orders at all. The loophole I found was simply switching back to the mental control order when I was done touching items. The mental control order gave me complete control of my mind. Meaning that while the mental control order was in effect I had perfect recall, photographic memory, and absolute control of my mental faculties. Thus my process simply became touching as many item as I could to learn their molecular structure and then using my mental order to recall everything perfectly.

This process however is the exact reason I began to focus on trying to learn occlumency again. At first glance there is not really any cause for alarm with me using an order to supplement the use of Creation. Except for the minor detail that while I was switching out my mental control order for the molecular knowledge order I was vulnerable to a legilimens.

The vulnerability was minor but it did highlight the fact that I may need to switch out the order on other occasions. That short gap could allow a legilimens the opportunity to pull a Charles Xavier on me and that was not acceptable. Covering the vulnerability aside learning occlumency would also provide a quality of life improvement where I don't have to constantly fall back to the mental control order.

The fourth quirk manifested six months later once more, the quirk was Flight. This quirk was by far one of my favorites and I called it the pseudo Superman quirk. Essentially it was nothing more than tactile telekinesis but as long as I focused it on my own body I was immune to heat, cold, physical damage and could fly. Not to mention I also gained a form of pseudo super strength indirectly. When the quirk awoke my first instinct was to fly off and have the time of my life.

Logical thinking however managed to win out and I became very aware that this would be a silly idea. Forget the fact that the statute of secrecy Wizards were held to left any form of magical phenomenon up to auror investigation. I was more held at bay by the idea that no wizard alive could pull off a self sustained flight spell, on the value of me flying alone I would be hunted down for the rest of my life. Not to mention whatever methods would be employed on my family to get me to comply.

Sure I could have thrown all caution to the wind but even if I initially simply wanted to keep my new family alive out of duty, at some point I developed genuine feelings for the lot. As an orphan I knew there was a risk of me growing attached to these people. The fact it really did happen however was quite troubling as when my true colors begin to show I'm not sure the bond will continue to hold. That however was a problem for a future Henry. Right now my priorities were maintaining my anonymity, growing in power magically, and strengthening my quirks.

That's not to say I still didn't have my fun. For the next few weeks or so a miniature Henry Cavil could be seen flying around my room. I genuinely contemplated using my metamorph ability to fly around the world playing Superman when I was a bit older. This quirk didn't just allow me to do a few idiotic things on whimsy it also helped me hide around the house when clone #1 was at school.

The good times just kept on coming as soon my fifth quirk manifested. It was a quirk I looked forward to for several reasons but the primary one was the fact my molecular touch order became less important. The quirk was Overhaul. From experience and the information One for All provided, the quirk invalidated my molecular knowledge order by already doing what the order declared.

The reason it invalidated the molecular knowledge order was that every time I disassembled something I instinctually knew it's structure and how to reassemble it. I still maintained my structure order in the back of my head but the order was no longer the priority it once was. I only ever needed the order when I was bored outside of my room and wanted to learn how to make something without disassembling it in full view.

The quirk was fascinating by allowing me to manipulate the structure of anything I touched however I pleased. Quite frankly it's what I assume would be called true alchemy should I ever reveal it's prowess in any form. Not that I would go off and present such a ridiculous ability for all to see. Naturally with such a useful quirk my curiosity eventually extended to my own body.

I didn't stupidly out of mere curiosity end up using Overhaul for a full body analysis. I did however use the quirk while focusing its effects on my foot. It hurt like like hell but it was extremely worth it. My foot alone allowed me to understand and manipulate my genetic structure. After a series of experiments I was gradually able to identify my magical and metamorphic traits. When I was finally done with the experiments I became keenly aware I could make any one a wizard. I didn't plan on giving these gifts to others but it did make me curious of what else I could do.
