CHAPTER START---

"This place feels super excessive," Shinso says.

He, Sero, and Horizon, were currently in a private room at one of Japan's most prestigious restaurants in Minato Tokyo.

They were all in full Hero Costume, with Shinso's new costume being a more obviously armored black and purple version of Eraser Head's.

Instead of a full head visor like Horizon and Sero he wears a mask which covers the lower half of his face until just under his eyes.

It was black and seemingly made up of dozens of intricate metal parts, with two dials on either side of his jaw to adjust them.

Since his Quirk doesn't work if played or amplified electronically, this invention allows him to tune his voice by using the dials. They then cause the intricate pieces to move and his voice changes as it flows through the newly altered gaps, no electronics required.

Around his neck like a large scarf is his own capture weapon, identical to Eraser Head's, aside from the purple colour with black edges.

He also has a tanto behind his waist like his teacher along with a few pouches for other gear.

"Just enjoy the night," Sero says, "especially when Horizon's paying..."

"I'm always the one paying."

"And I always appreciate that," Sero chuckles a bit. "But seriously I doubt he called us both to Tokyo the day before we head back to UA for no reason, probably some big case he wants us to help him with, right?"

Horizon looks between them, then shakes his head, "nope, just figured we could have dinner here."

Shinso sighs, "you had me sit on a train from far edge of Japan all the way to Tokyo...for this."

"This restaurant is important," Horizon says. "This place is always monitored by the press, they already know I'm working with Cellophane, so when some pictures of us three walking in here go viral."

"I become a known member of Team Horizon," Shinso says. "I guess it was worth the trip."

"I never approved that name by the way."

"Good luck changing it," Sero says. "I've already used it online and the internet likes it, looks like its staying."

"Whatever, lets just order..."

They all get comfortable and enter their orders into the screens beside their seats, one of the other reasons Horizon came here. No staff listening in on conversations or seeing Sero and Shinso with no masks.

And after a bit more chatter there is a gentle knock on the door, and in comes a few men with their food and drinks.

"This looks like the most delicious thing I'll ever eat," Sero says as the staff leaves.

"Don't let Kodai hear that..."

Sero rolls his eyes, then he and Shinso take off their masks. "Still don't think any food is worth this price...kinda insane. Maybe I should have become a chef instead of a hero, and I wouldn't have to risk my life all the time."

"You still could," Shinso says as they begins eating.

"Well, I'm kind of used to the perks that come with the job."

"You mean pussy falling into your lap," Horizon says as the lower part of his visor just over his mouth retracts and fold away, showing separations that were otherwise invisible. "Being a hero has its perks, like the fact that they'll probably give us this meal for free just so we'll keep coming back."

"Free food is always a win," Shinso says.

"Yeah, but I always tip atleast the same amount, reputation matters after all."

"Meanwhile Mt. Lady tries to look all cute to get free food," Sero says as they all begin eating. "Works every time too."

"How is working with a team by the way?" Shinso asks. "Horizon doesn't really have a hero he works under, well not beyond his loose connection to Endeavor, and I've got Gang Orca, but he's got a lot of people working under him so I hardly see the man, but you're always working closely with three Pro Heroes."

"Honestly Edgeshot is pretty awesome, dude knows his stuff, you should totally come work with us sometime. Your Quirk would be really handy for the kind of stuff he does, plus he's a ninja cosplayer too."

"I'm not a ninja cosplayer," Shinso says.

"Yes, you are," Horizon says. "Is there a strategy they use to be more effective as a team?"

"What like a Super Move...not really. They mostly just do their own things until one of them gets a lead, then they bring it to Edgeshot and he makes a plan from there. And I've gotta say, going from interning with Kamui Woods who pretty much let the wind just take him to the next crime.

Then to Edgeshot who has a plan for every encounter, its a big step up. And Kamui Woods is learning a lot from him too, but Mt. Lady is a bit more content just being a background character."

"Makes sense atleast," Horizon says. "But Mt. Lady and Kamui moved from Aldera into Edgeshots area, that certainly helped them a lot to get some attention."

"Speaking of attention, we haven't seen you in the news much this past week," Shinso says. "Don't you work like 24/7 on patrol."

"Only 23 hours actually, I still only need an hour of sleep."

"Lucky," they both mutter.

"But honestly my senses expand to most of Minato Tokyo, and since Horizon tower is in the middle I rarely have to patrol anymore. I'll go out if someone contacts me for help or something pops up on the police radio.

But aside from that my presence is enough to deter crime in my area, even when I'm not in Tokyo, so long as I don't post anything online showing I'm in UA, the crime rate stays at almost zero."

"Almost," Shinso says. "So some people are still that bold."

"Yeah, but all the people worth hunting are gone already, now its just pickpockets and purse snatchers, but none of them use their Quirks. They learned real quick that if they don't use their Quirk then the cops will come for them, but if they do use it, then I'll just find them, since using your Quirk is what classifies you as a 'Villain', pretty smart."

"Does that happen a lot?"

"Not really, maybe once a week, honestly I'm better at suppressing crime in Minato Tokyo than All Might was, but unlike him my influence doesn't span all of Japan and most of the world. But it works for me, not like I want to go chasing every fucking purse thief or pickpocket, what a waste of my time, we've got D-Listers for that stuff."

"That's a bit...mean," Shinso says. "But I'm not surprised you so easily suppressed crime in your area, nor am I surprised you haven't reached the level of All Might."

"Not yet atleast," Sero says.

Shinso takes a sip of his drink then nods, "All Might suppressed crime by inspiring Pro Heroes and citizens, and even the villains had a huge respect for him, but you operate through power and fear.

I can't imagine its fun being a criminal, and knowing without warning someone can appear behind you ready to lock you away. But aren't you a bit concerned that you're treating Minato Tokyo like a police state?"

"God Emperor Horizon," Sero says. "That's why blonde calls you, right?"

"Well, it's not like I'm always watching all the time, so no. But I rather people think I'm always watching, keeps them in line."

"A blade at everyone's throat," Shinso sighs. "Well that's one way of doing things I suppose. But I'm sure some people are worried about you potentially abusing your power."

Horizon shrugs, "power not worth abusing isn't worth having, and besides, who would they send after me?"

"I'll add this to the list of things I'm glad the public didn't hear you say," Shinso says

"Oh we should compare those sometime," Sero chuckles. "Horizon says some insane things that I don't think anyone wants to hear a hero say, but hey he's good at his job, and that's all that matters."

"That's the only way to win at life," Horizon says. "Make yourself so irreplaceable that they wouldn't know what to do without you, then you can do whatever the fuck you want."

"I'm working on that," Sero says.

"Is that the goal, to make yourself irreplaceable like All Might was?" Shinso asks. "Or are you going even further."

"Much further, I'll be a boon to all of mankind," Horizon raises a hand and uses his Quirk, showing off some of the blue energy vapor wafting off his hand. "In theory I'm a miracle elixir... fuck being a Pro Hero, that's how you become irreplaceable..."

---2 Hours Later...

"This entire tower seems excessive," Shinso says as he enters to the pool area of Horizon Tower. Seeing a 25m heated pool in the middle of the room. With Horizon's logo on the floor of it.

Sero was already floating in the pool on an inflatable tube, drinking a canned beer. "He built it to match his ego!" his laugh echoes through the room.

Shinso looks over to Horizon, sitting on one of the lounge chairs scrolling through his phone.

"Well I guess that makes sense, and why are you drinking?"

"Oh this," Sero gestures to the beer, then points off to the kitchen area here. "He's got a full bar over there if you want, and can you bring me a new one, this is empty."

SHAMBLES!

The empty can is swapped for a full one.

"Huh, thanks man!" Horizon doesn't respond. "Best Quirk ever."

"I meant why are you drinking, you're 16."

"So?" Horizon asks. "We're all 16 but expected to fight and potentially die against villains so losers can keep living, they want you to fight for them, they can let you enjoy a drink...just don't throw up in my pool."

"Yeah don't be such a wimp, just try one!"

"And why do you have a full bar in your agency?" Shinso asks.

"Because if this Pro Hero thing doesn't work out, imagine how many women I can fit in this pool."

"Can we do that anyway?" Sero asks.

"No, I have a image to uphold," Horizon says. "Now Shinso go grab a beer and relax, I'll take the residual alcohol out of your system tomorrow, no hangover and nobody will ever know."

"Well, maybe one..."

---3 Beers later...

"Look, I'm just saying its creepy how she never talks," Shinso says, now floating in the pool on his own tube alongside Sero.

"Well Yui is just shy, she talks when we're alone, more than just talk actually..."

"Wait, have you two...already?"

"Huh, yeah, I mean we can die at any time right. She's doing her Hero Work Studies with Thirteen but it can still be dangerous, and I fight a lot in mine, why hold back on an experience."

"Well, that's one way to look at it," Shinso says.

"They're also 16 and horny," Horizon says. "Plus everyone is living in dorms on the same campus...people are fucking, its inevitable. That's why the first day back every class had that sex education talk...and why I got to class late."

"That makes sense," Shinso says. "Wait, do you like, see people having sex?"

"No, I can blur out things in my senses until I want to focus on them, otherwise it's just too much information to be useful."

"That's a relief," Sero says. "But one thing I never really understood, you were the one that told me not to hold back on experiences...but you still don't really do anything with Momo or Jiro."

"True, everyone knows they're all but humping your leg," Shinso says. "Its kind of like how Uraraka follows Deku around, but atleast with her its more...cute. I think they might just be delusional and horny."

"Can't really blame them, I'm amazing, but honestly I've just been so busy with everything that dealing with them isn't even on the list, well, not at the top."

"Plus you've got Mei and Ryuko to help you relax," Sero says.

"Ryuko?" Shinso asks. "Ryukyu? Are those rumors true?"

"No, not the dragon, the other Ryuko," Horizon says.

"What other Ryuko?"

"Pixie-Bob, she lives nearby so she's usually spending the night at the tower when I'm here...but she's visiting her team at the resort this week."

"What? How long has this been going on?"

"Since the summer camp, we get along really well honestly..."

Shinso sighs, "well, now I see why Sero is becoming so...well, like you. You're a bad influence."

"Nah, I'm the best role model he could have," Horizon says, watching Shinso sip his beer. "I've got power, money, women, fame, everything a young man wants, I'm perfect..."

"If you say so," Shinso says.

"Enough about where Horizon puts his dick, what about you Shinso?"

"Me," he looks over to Sero. "I'm still trying to catch up to both of you, romance would just get in the way of that. When I'm in the top 10 I'll think about it..."

"I'll ask again in a few months..."
