Consequences.

[Hosu General Hospital]

Kaito, Midoriya, Iida and Todoroki are resting in the hospital after the Hosu incident.

"Were you able to sleep, Midoriya?" Iida.

"No, not really." Midoriya.

"I didn't think so." Iida.

"Me neither." Todoroki.

"*SNORE*!!!" Kaito.

The trio look at their fellow classmate sleeping as if nothing had happened.

"I guess we were overthinking this a little too much." Iida.

"Yeah but, thinking about it now, we did something amazing, huh?" Midoriya.

"Yeah." Todoroki.

"Seeing an ending like that really makes you feel like it's a miracle we're alive." Midoryia.

"With my leg like this, he probably could've killed us if he'd wanted to." Iida.

"Yeah. We were obviously left alive on purpose." Todoroki.

"You're amazing, you managed to give him that powerful kick even with the damage you had previously taken." Midoriya.

"I-it's nothing that amazing. I simply followed up the chance you guys gave me." Iida.

The compliment tossing continued for a few minutes until Gran Torino and Ingenium entered the room.

"Oh, are you wounded kids awake?" Gran Torino.

"Gran Torino!" Midoriya.

"Brother..." Iida.

"Kid, I've got a lot of complaints for you." Gran Torino.

"--Oh! S-Sorr—" Midoriya was cut off.

"But before that, you've got a visitor." Gran Torino.

A tall man in a black tuxedo enters the room, besides his high stature, his only other trait is the fact that he has a dog head instead of a human one.

"Hosu's chief of police, Kenji Tsuragamae requested to visit you lot." Gran Torino.

"Tsuragamae! Ch-Chief?!" Midoriya.

"Oh, you can just stay seated, woof." Kenji.

'Woof!?' Midoriya.

"You must be the U.A. students who brought down the hero killer, right?" Kenji.

"Yes." The trio.

"The chief of police came all this way... Why?" Iida.

"This is all regarding the hero killer we arrested. He had fairly serious injuries, burns, cuts and broken bones, he's receiving treatment under strict guard, woof."

"Since you are U.A. students, I'm sure you already know that when superpowers were still becoming the norm, the police attached high importance to leadership and standards and made sure Quirks were not used as weapon. And then, the profession of "hero" emerged to fill that gap, woof."

"For an individual's use of force and power that can easily kill others, actions that normally would be appropriate to denounce--to be accepted officially is thanks to early heroes who followed the ethics and rules of the profession, woof."

"Even up against the hero killer, for uncertified individuals to cause injury with their Quirks without specific instruction from their guardians or supervisors is a clear violation of the rules. The three of you, and the pro heroes Endeavor, Ingenium, and Gran Torino must receive strict punishment." Kenji.

"Wait a minute. If none of us hadn't done anything, Native would've been killed. If Midoriya hadn't come, the other two would've been killed." Todoroki.

"Todoroki." Iida.

"No one realized that the hero killer had appeared. Are you saying we should've followed the rules and watched people get killed?" Todoroki.

"W-W-Wait!" Midoriya.

"Are you saying that as long as it turns out all right, it's okay to bend the rules?" Kenji.

"Isn't it a hero's job to save people?" Todoroki.

"That is why you are not a full-fledged hero yet. Goodness, what are you being taught by U.A. and Endeavor, woof?" Kenji.

"You dog!" Todoroki.

"TODOROKI!" Kaito.

As Kaito spoke, everyone looked at him getting up from his bed.

"Calm down, Todoroki. He is absolutely right." Kaito.

"Kobayashi. Why? Why would someone with a sense of justice as strong as yours is okay with such laws?" Todoroki.

"Look, imagine a situation where a person is falling from a building, 4 bystanders try to save him simultaneously with their quirks but in doing so, they cause more damage than a professional hero would do, or worse, they don't save him at all by accidentally hindering each other."

"What do you think anyone would say? You have to keep in mind that, in a superpowered society like this one, regulations and rules are important to prevent accidents from happening." Kaito.

"Speaking of which, Kobayashi Kaito, you don't have a quirk but still, you caused enough damages while fighting one of the monsters, meaning that the sanctions would be including you too, woof." Kenji.

"Boo...Party pooper." Kaito.

"Hang on a minute. Hear him out until the end." Gran Torino.

"That was the official opinion of the police. And the punishment and such would only happen if this were all made public, woof. If this were made public, you would probably be applauded by the public, but you would not be able to escape punishment."

"On the other hand, this is a bit underhanded, but if it is not made public, the hero killer's burn scars would support Endeavor being the hero who saved the day, and it would end there, woof."

"Thankfully, there were very few witnesses. This violation could be crushed here, woof. But this would also mean no one would know about your good judgment or achievements. Which do you prefer? Personally, I don't want to be the one to find fault with promising young ones because of one big mistake, woof." Kenji.

"Either way, we will need to take responsibility for being negligent in our supervisory duties." Ingenium.

"I am truly sorry, brother." Iida.

"All right. You'll cause trouble for others! If you understand, then don't do it again!" Tensei.

"I won't!" Iida.

"I-I'm sorry." Midoriya.

"Please take care of it. Because of the unfairness of adults, you will not be able to receive the praise you would probably have gotten, but at least, as someone who also protects the peace, I can say thank you." Kenji.

"Don't sweat it, popularity is overrated." Kaito.

"Please start with that next time." Todoroki.

While the young quartet was receiving their news, the news about the Hero Killer Stain spread throughout the whole country. Villains, heroes and other important figures from society paid attention to this matter, and more specifically, to the other protagonist from the night.

"HAHAHAHAHA!!! Brat! It seems that you've made it big time!" Spoke Mashiro while looking at a video.

[In a tall building]

"Now, I was not expecting this development." Spoke Daimon while drinking some wine.

[In an underground facility]

"Splendid, simply splendid Kobayashi!" Spoke a man with a black mask.

"Sir, with all due respect, I doubt this is the time to celebrate." Garaki.

"On the contrary, doctor. You see, I've been having doubts about the possibility of him having One for All for quite some time." All For One.

"And your deduction was…?" Garaki.

"He doesn't! All Might has chosen poorly. If he had chosen Kobayashi as his successor...the mere thought makes me shiver, of the monster he would be with that quirk." All for One.

[In another facility]

"Kobayashi Kaito, thanks to your data, my plans are one step closer." Spoke Hermes while looking at various vials filled with blood.

[Best Jeanist Hero HQ]

"Regarding the incident last night in Hosu City in west Tokyo with the arrest of Hero Killer: Stain and the villains that resembled the Nomu who attacked U.A. You are probably all worried about that right now. Yes, it is something I am also very worried about."

"People tend to only pay attention to big events. However, it is especially at times like this that heroes must remain calm. Chaos can sometimes tempt people and draw out the cruelty that lies sleeping inside them at their core. Which means, it will be business as usual for us today, as well. Let us brace our minds and bodies with our best tight jeans." Best Jeanist.

"Sure, Best Jeanist!"

'I... I want to go home right now...' Bakugo trying to not implode.

[Fourth Kind Agency]

"Oh, I got a reply from Midoriya! It was at Hosu City, so that location information was an SOS after all, huh? I'm glad I reported it." Kirishima.

"Hey! Fourth Kind's gonna hit you! Let's get going!" Tetsutetsu.

"Wait a sec! I'm gonna reply." Kirishima.

Fourth Kind walks to the back of Kirishima and whacks both him and Tetsutetsu in the head.

"Didn't I tell you that you must always be punctual?!" Fourth Kind.

"S-Sorry, sir!" Kirishima/ Tetsutetsu.

"All right, we're going on patrol!" Fourth Kind.

"Yes, sir!" Kirishima/ Tetsutetsu.

[Uwabami Hero HQ]

"They sure work fast. This is a demo, so it'll air on TV in about a month. With lots of CG!" Uwabami.

"We're gonna be on TV, huh?" Kendo spoke trying to be positive.

"Heroes... We are heroes..." Momo.

In that moment, Momo remembers what Kaito said to her before choosing the agency.

'Momo, that Uwabami specializes on public image, I doubt you'll get the desired field experience that you're thinking.' Kaito.

(Flashback)

'I believe that this is the correct choice, don't you know the number of commercials she's in? that must be since she was recognized by her amazing hero job.' Momo.

'Or her amazing...…' Kaito.

'You said anything?' Momo.

'Nah, but since you're that sure, how 'bout we make a bet?' Kaito.

'A bet?' Momo.

'If your internship is as I claim it will be, you'll do me a favor.' Kaito.

'And if I win?' Momo.

'I'll teach you my breathing techniques.' Kaito.

Momo thinks deeply for a couple of seconds and agrees.

(End of Flashback)

'I just hope he won't make me do anything embarrassing nor perverted.' Momo thought while regretting her past choices.

"Now, shall we go on patrol?" Uwabami.

"Yes, ma'am!" Momo/Kendo.

[Gun-Head Hero HQ]

"I see, well, I'm just glad you and Iida are both okay. When I got just the address, I got really nervous." Uraraka.

"Sorry, Uraraka. There was a lot going on, so I couldn't contact you." Midoriya (Over the phone).

"I know you went through a lot. Get some rest! And tell me more about it later." Uraraka.

"Okay." Midoriya.

"Uravity, we're starting basic training." Gun-Head.

"Oh, right, sir! Well, I'll see you at school." Uraraka.

"Sorry to bother you while you're busy! Bye!" Midoriya.

"Your boyfriend?" Gun-Head asked shyly.

"N-No! That's not it!" Uraraka. (Translation: Not yet)

[Back with Midoriya]

The young greenette is currently paralyzed by the sublime virgin experience of talking with a girl through a phone, not in person, through the phone.

'Talking on the phone with a girl is... amazing! Man, her voice was so close!' Midoriya.

"Enjoyed your conversation, captain Virgo?" Kaito.

Midoriya shrieks and takes some distance.

"K-K-K-K-KAITO?! How much did you hear?" Midoriya.

"Nothing, it's just that your thoughts are so easy to read." Kaito spoke while picking his nose.

The due began to walk towards their room, Kaito spend the whole-time hearing Midoriya's excuses.

Once they reached the room, they sat in their respective beds and began to talk with Todoroki and Iida.

"So, how are your injuries from the battle?" Kaito.

"I'm mostly fine, a few scratches and cracked bones but nothing major." Todoroki.

"Broken right arm, cuts and muscle fatigue." Midoriya.

"Broken arm, broken leg and cuts." Iida.

"Dang, you sure had a wallop. In my case I have/had; cracked bones, ripped muscle tissue, a little internal damage, burn damage in various parts of my body, crooked right wrist and I also bit my tongue this morning during breakfast." Kaito.

The three sweatdrops wondering how their class rep is still alive.

"Your resistance is truly amazing, to say the least." Iida.

"More like his resilience to die." Todoroki.

"Anyway, I think we've all learned enough from this experience for future references, don't you think?" Kaito.

"Yeah, we'll keep improving over and over." Midoriya.

"Let's do our best!" Iida.

Meanwhile, Todoroki is a little lost in thought.

"I feel... kind of bad..." Todoroki.

"About what?" Midoriya.

"I feel like if I get involved...other people mess up their hands..." Todoroki.

The trio give him an awkward look before getting a big smile in their faces.

"Is it a curse?" Todoroki spoke with an unnatural level of seriousness.

Being the last straw, the trio began to laugh to their hearts content.

"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" The other 3.

"Todoroki, I didn't know you could make jokes!" Kaito.

"No, I'm not joking. I'm like "The Hand Crusher" or something." Todoroki.

The three continued to laugh even harder than before.

[In some tavern]

Two men, a slim grey-haired one with a purple shirt and the other being a fat guy with an eyepatch were talking.

"I miss the days back before All Might...I was still young back then, too. The villains were wild and impulsive, and that turned into enthusiasm the whole country was teeming with." Fat man.

"It was a good time." Slim man.

"But when All Might appeared, everything changed. It's all thanks to that Symbol of Justice. Maybe it's time for me to retire." Fat man.

"About that. Listen to this. Just between you and me, I know of a way to make some cash. I'm only telling you because I know you guys have quality goods. Have you seen this video?" Slim man.

The slim man shows him the video recorded of Stain and Kaito.

"Huh? Who's this?" Fat man.

"It's a video of the "Hero Killer." And the "Quirkless Hero". They're hot right now. Hero Killer: Stain. Real name: Chizome Akaguro. All Might's debut left a deep impression on him, and he set his sights on becoming a hero. He enrolled in a private hero high school but was disappointed in the fundamentally depraved view of heroes taught by the educational system."

"He dropped out in the summer of his first year. Until the end of his teenage years, he called for a return to the old idea of heroes making speeches on the street until he realized resignedly that words had no power. For the next ten years, in order to fulfill his "duty," he studied and trained in killing techniques on his own."

"During this time, his parents passed away, and that affair was considered non-criminal. He emphasized a return to the old idea of heroes. Heroes should not seek compensation. The title of "hero" must only be granted to those who epitomize self-sacrifice."

"The present-day heroes are fakes who are all talk. He wanted society to realize this through his purges one after another."

"The Quirkless Hero-in training: Hashira. Real Name: Kobayashi Kaito. A quirkless kid that enlisted himself in UA this year, not only did he managed to enter, but also got the higher score in the tests."

"Currently living with his mother and adoptive brother but no info on his biological father. He's made statements against the quirkist groups. Inhuman strength, speed, reflexes and skills, managed to fight the Hero Killer on his own fairly well and defeated the strongest monster from the Hosu incident."

"Right now, two groups have emerged from their ideologies. A group that abhors the current hero society and resorts to villainous acts, and one that is against the favoritism and prejudice over people with more suitable quirks, regardless of their utility."

"These two groups are bound to clash so; we'll make the spark that will ignite that massive confrontation." Slim man.

"How?" Fat man.

"By spreading this video as much as we can on the internet." The slim man smiles.

The two men begin to drink everything in the bar while laughing at their plan.
