I have up to 20 advanced chapters of this story available on patre0n.com/xlucqs, with the lowest tier being £4 for 5 advanced chapters. Subscribing isn't necessary, but it is greatly appreciated. Thank you to everyone who had subscribed so far, I appreciate it!

We hit 370 power stones last week! Thank you so much! If we hit 500 power stones this week then I will post a bonus chapter! If we manage to hit 1000 power stones, then another bonus chapter will be released!

Also, I know after reading this chapter some of you may want to drop. Before you do, please at least read chapter chapter 15/16 which will come out in a couple of days. I have zero intentions of making this like every other boring MHA fic, which means having him in UA following the same boring stuff. That's all I'll say now.

Akira woke up with a groan. His body felt like shit, but it was mainly his neck that hurt with a dull pain flaring up every second or so.

His memory of the previous events that had transpired slowly came back to him…his eyes widened. His body went upright like a bolt of electricity passed through it, and only then did he realise that both his hands and feet were cuffed, trapped to a wooden chair in a room surrounded by 4 grey stone walls.

'This is the most cliché interrogation room ever.'

Akira felt that his quirk was active, but his mouth was completely shut tight, not even allowing him to produce muffled sounds. 'Fuck…' He thought.

He closed his eyes again, hating the intense light that shone in it. He rested his head on his arms, wanting nothing more than to go back to sleep and sleep off his injured body, but his mind raced and he found himself unable too.

He cursed himself for drawing attention to himself and getting caught. It all started to go wrong when he went out in public and fought Muscular, but that was only because he wanted to prevent the deaths of the water hose hero's and put an end to the tyrannical villain.

He could have played the game better, so much better. But he just had to get the attention of All Might didn't he?

The door suddenly opened, revealing a slightly weary eyed detective standing at the front door. He looked at him with an unreadable expression.

'He looks familiar, isn't that Tsukauchi? He was friends with All Might if I recall.'

He took a seat opposite him. "Can I get you something to drink, maybe tea, coffee, or some water?" He asked. Akira declined with a shake of his head.

"Suit yourself then." He took a long sip of his hot beverage, which Akira guessed was coffee if the bags under his eyes were any indication. After a moment of silence, Tsukauchi looked at him with a keen eye, "You know, you're not what I expected at all." He opened a very large file and set it on the table.

"Akira Endo, 13 years old, turning 14 soon. Formerly an orphan at the Little Stars Orphanage, was confirmed to be quirkless at the age of 5, and had a very tough life, both in the orphanage and school. At 8 years old you finally snapped, and you were kicked out of both the orphanage and the school after putting a kid into hospital. You disappeared without a trace after that, and half a year later you appeared as the vigilante Invincible, with a quirk to boot." He looked towards Akira, "Sound about right?"

Akira nodded. It wasn't anything he already wasn't expecting should he be captured. Just some fact finding.

"Let me put it as simply as possible. You have amazing physical skills, and your years of experience only makes you that much deadlier. We are 100% positive you were trained by Knuckleduster. However…the most fascinating thing about you is your quirk. At first glance it looks like you have multiple quirks, possibly thousands, but I think I figured it all out with the help of an associate of mine. You wouldn't happen to know about a certain American hero would you?"

Akira's eyes widened, looking towards the detective with a shocked look.

"In hindsight it was obvious, but it was the muttering that gave you away." Tsukacuhi had a victorious smirk on his face.

It was obvious that Akira was pissed off and bitter, but that was to be expected when you realised you would spend the rest of your life in jail.

Tsukauchi smiled, not a mocking or condensing one, but a genuine, heartfelt one.

"Not at all, I just wanted to have a chat with the man who gave me so much trouble over the years. I hope to speak to you again, when you finally understand your circumstances and future. I'll let these 3 take the floor so I can explain it to you."

'These three? Wha-'

The metal door slammed open, revealing 2 people that Akira was familiar with. The first one was All Might, but instead of his buff form he was in his skinny, civilian form and was most likely disguised as a detective. The second one was Eraserhead, or should he call him Aizawa? He wore the same clothes as he did when Akira fought him a few days ago, and he had a bored and impassive look in his eyes. They momentarily flashed in interest when he looked at Akira, but Akira hadn't noticed.

On a second glance, Akira realised that there was something else in the room. He was small, small enough to be perched on Aizawa's shoulder easily as he was, and he had a warming smile on his face, but his eyes betrayed different thoughts as they looked like 2 black orbs staring into Akira's soul. In the world of quirks of all different types, this wasn't initially weird, except for the fact that this thing wasn't a human.

"Am I a rat? Am I a mole? The answer is neither, I'm the principal of UA!!!" Nezu exclaimed. The animal remained unfettered at Akira's blank face and continued.

"Take the mouth guard off." Nezu said. Tsukauchi nodded, and a moment later Akira felt the binding around his mouth loosen. He looked towards Eraserhead, releasing any means at escape would be useless.

"Hello Invincible! Or should I call you Akira?" Nezu said. Akira made to respond, but Nezu continued, "I'll call you Akira, less syllables, it also rolls off the tongue easier. Akira, I've heard many things about you, from both Aizawa and Tsukauchi here. Despite how he looks, I can tell he thinks you're a good kid with a good heart."

Aizawa grumbled, while Akira huffed, "The law would say otherwise. If I was truly a good person, then I wouldn't be hunted down by you guys, by All Might no less."

Toshinori visibly flinched. Akira still didn't understand how his secret identity was never blown. He turned his attention back to Nezu, who had a strange, unnerving smile on his face.

"Despite your…misgivings, I still know you are a kid. All of us here do. Let me guess, when you first got your quirk, your first thought was to become a hero, but with your newly powerful quirk at your disposal, you simply couldn't wait for god knows how long to save people the legal way, so you made the choice to become a Vigilante and save people when you wanted. I like people like you Akira, not afraid to make the big decisions when it counts. Now although that decision came to bite you back in the ass, it certainly did wonders. You saved numerous people, and put many people in jail. Now although you do have some…violent tendencies, it's nothing some heroes don't do, so don't feel guilty about it!"

Akira had a suspicious look on his face as he finally understood where this was leading, "So let me guess, you want me to become a hero and go to UA? Do you really have the power to do that? pardon my crimes and allow me to become a hero? I killed people, you would be letting a murderer into UA."

Akira thought he explained his suspicions well, but Nezu just laughed, "Do you think killing people prevents you from being a hero? The reality is that heroes kill all the time, some by accident, and some on purpose. Some heroes are only heroes to let out their sadistic nature and get away with it, that is the true reality of this country."

Aizawa was giving Nezu a death stare, while Toshinori shifted in his seat uncomfortably.

"But I'll have to tell you that you will have to stop killing people, publicly of course. Some people are the worst of the worst, and fate loves to bring upon accidents on people like them, no?"

Akira chuckled, "I quite like your thinking rodent."

As shown in the manga, Tartarus was just a ticking time bomb containing all of the worst villains of Japan. If All for One was just killed, then everything that had currently happened in the manga wouldn't have happened.

"So you figured it out? Smart lad." Nezu jumped off Aizawa's shoulder, landing on the table. He held out his hand, "Let UA nurture your potential Akira. Your quirk is amazing, Akira, one of the best, and the way you use it is good, and it can easily be improved during your time here. Your combat skills are amazing, and you have years of knowledgeable experience on your belt. If you just give us the chance, and let us help you build the blocks on an already strong foundation, you could be the best hero this world has ever seen."

"It was a good speech, but it certainly wasn't needed. I've already made up my mind," The room tensed, "It's either this or jail right? I obviously choose to go to UA and become a hero!" Akira had a grin that stretched across his entire face.

This wasn't the end of Akira Endo, this was just the start.
