The rest of the day was spent with regular classes, boring everyone as a certain thought crossed their minds. 'What are the girls/guys going to wear?' They all thought, though one of them was getting a nosebleed and everyone moved their desk away from them.

By the end of the day, Izuku hurried to the dorm to make dinner for himself and his three tenants while everyone was left to try to make their own dinner since UA was a bit strict about the cafeteria hours. So Izuku got some free entertainment out of a burning kitchen which Katsuki caused and was left to clean up.

Anyway, the next morning, Izuku woke up to a knocking on his door. 'Who's up at this hour? It's four in the morning.' He thought before gently moving Athena to his spot on the bed and quietly getting up to open the door.

The moment he opened the door, he was face to face with a blue-haired girl in a skin-tight hero suit. "Midoriya, get dressed and meet me in field Gamma. You're getting tested for the Student Council and you'll be exempt from classes for today." She said before running through the halls to presumably field Gamma.

"If this happens again, I'm letting Eris have some fun time with her." He said before getting dressed in a brown leather jacket, dark-blue jeans, and a teal shirt along with his normal red high-tops.

Leaving the three goddesses in his bed, Izuku grabbed a piece of toast and started to run towards field Gamma. Along the way, he saw some blonde guy who disappeared the moment Izuku looked away. Not bothering to think about it too much, he tried to activate One For All, but he immediately felt a small strain on his body so he stopped using the quirk.

Arriving at field Gamma, Izuku saw a mess of pipes and factory buildings that seemed more like a maze than a training ground. "This is pretty cool if I knew I wouldn't get lost," he said absentmindedly as stopped at the entrance.

At that entrance were five other students, all in their hero costumes. There was the blue-haired girl, a taller blonde guy with a very simple face, a navy blue-haired guy who was leaning against the wall, a black-haired girl with galaxies for eyes, and a brown-haired guy who was messing with his watch.

"Oh, you're here! Well, we might as well introduce ourselves, I'm Nejire Hado and I'm the president of the student council!" The blue-haired girl said excitedly. She currently wore a skin-tight suit with odd, spiraling gauntlets on both arms. Finishing off the outfit, she had on a pair of spiral-like horns which were made of... something? Honestly, it looked like an extension of her hair, but Izuku could've sworn it was just a headband.

"Hello! I'm Mirio Togata and I'm the chairman!" The tall blonde guy said, showing only happiness as Izuku couldn't discern anything else. But his outfit was themed on something as he wore some silver and blue armor with one million in gold on his chest, but just for added effect, he had on a long, red cape.

"Hey... I'm Tamaki Amajiki. I'm just here because those two wouldn't leave me be." The black-haired guy said a bit awkwardly before pointing at Nejire and Mirio. But he wore a white hooded cape on top of dark body armor and a purple carrier vest, but he also held a purple mask that looked like it went over his eyes.

"Yo, I'm Taira Takahashi! I'm your vice president so you better respect me!" The black-haired girl said childishly, but more like she was seeking attention than anything. Going with that attitude, she wore a black bodysuit with diamond-shaped holes over her joints and cleavage that seemed more decorative than anything. Topping off the sleek outfit, she had a classic utility belt and a black maks that accentuated her eyes that literally showed off galaxies.

"And I'm Gosei Kiyachi. I'm supposed to be the treasurer, but keep your hands off my tech and we'll get along fine." The brown-haired guy said as his watch showed a hologram of field Gamma. He was wearing an unzipped vest that was stuffed full of different items while he wore a green shirt and some cargo pants with it. Though his combat boots seemed a bit lazily put on with the outfit.

"So... I'm supposed to go through an initiation or something, right?" Izuku asked as all of them nodded.

With a little bounce in her step, Nejire walked up to him and started to touch random parts of his body, observing him. "I don't see how this helps with a quirk? Isn't this just normal clothing?" She asked before Mira extended her hand and a hand entirely made of white light appeared to pull Nejire away. "Come on~, I was just asking him a few questions." She whined to the black-haired girl.

"Actually, it's just a placeholder. I can usually fight in anything, but my quirk is a bit special and allows me to get a hero suit whenever I need to." He answered her question before walking into the maze of pipes. "So, what's this test?"

"You'll be fighting me and Takahashi. If you can beat us in five minutes, you'll be the new member of the student council." Said the brown-haired guy who put on a pair of glasses.

"It'll be a simple fight and you can use any of your techniques, but once someone gets too injured, we'll stop the fight."

Taking note of what Taira had just said, Izuku looked toward the maze of pipes once again. "I'll get a head start then." He said before a veil of lighting appeared around him and he ran into the field.

With Izuku quickly getting out of sight, Taira and Gosei headed into the field together while the other three council members headed into the field's surveillance room.

Taira and Gosei ran to the center of the field before the former used her quirk to make a dome of light around the field. Gosei remained quiet as he used his watch to display a hologram of the entire area, but another tap on the watch sent a pulse of sorts out, marking all life forms in the area, including Izuku.

Looking at the map, he wasn't too far, but each pulse saw him just circling around the field, slowly closing in on the center. Though the strategy would work great in a group of people, Izuku was alone and it was wearing him out steadily without the boost or pure force that could be used with Body Supremacy.

"Either he's an idiot and trying to draw us out or he has a plan," stated Gosei as he continued to watch his hologram map.

"Let's not underestimate him, he did kill a bioweapon meant to destroy All-Might." At that same moment, a gunshot was heard and a volley of three bullets nicked Gosei's watch, destroying the hologram map.

"Okay, I get your point now. But where did he get a gun?" Gosei asked as he put his broken watch into one of the pockets of his combat vest.

Looking around the two council members couldn't see anything moving, even when Taira threw balls of light to try to illuminate the area. Well, Izuku was hiding in a cluster of pipes so that made sense.

At the moment, he had his Cerberus gun drawn and nothing else, be it a lack of accuracy with shield throws or the new inability to lift his Minotaur ax without using One For All. Staying silent, he pressed his hand on the ground before three bloodhounds appeared, each made of molten lava yet didn't melt anything.

With a wave of Izuku's hand, the hounds separated and started to circle the center while one of them went straight for it. Using this as a distraction, Izuku put away his gun and used One For All to get up and above the cluster of pipes, so he got a clear view and a straight path to strike his opponents.

But Taira and Gosei weren't so organized. They saw the two hounds that split up to circle around them first so they started to shoot them with beams of light and a high-precision pistol, respectively.

They barely hurt both the hounds before their targets disappeared in the maze of a factory, but this gave the last hellhound the perfect opportunity as it jumped onto the platform they were on and bit Taira's right arm, burning away her sleeve and then throwing her into the cluster of pipes.

"Alright, show yourself! You got two minutes left now!" Gosei shouted as he shot the poor dog right in the head, making it turn into dust.

And that taunt lost Gosei the match as Izuku used One For All: Full Cowl 5% to jump towards him and punch him right in the face, making him fly into the cluster as well. "I think I went too far with that," he said while scratching the back of his head. "Hey, Swerve, Drift! Get one of these two and bring them out of field Gamma!"

Responding to that command, the two hellhounds that were hiding came out and picked up one of the two council members before walking out with them on their backs. As for Izuku, he stopped using One For All and immediately dropped to his knee, feeling the strain on his body, surprising the three that were watching the entire match.

A few minutes later, Izuku met up with the other three council members while his hounds took the injured two to the infirmary. "So, what did you think?" He asked a bit nervously, not even looking them in the eyes and looking toward the rising sun.

"What do I think? I think that was so cool! You have to tell me how you did that stuff! Don't worry about classes, I got you pulled out of all of them so we could talk!" Nejire said excitedly as she tried to see how Izuku's quirks worked, touching his body in the process which made him flinch nearly every time.

"Nejire, leave the new guy alone. After all, he seems pretty tired from that simple display." The blonde guy said as Nejire pouted and stepped back, eyeing Izuku's hero suit this time. "But why were you so tired after that? Your quirk has at least been maintained since you started UA, right?"

The question made Izuku a bit nervous as he heard yelling and stomachs growling through a mental link that he closed right after hearing that. "About that, I guess you can say I have three goddesses that supply me power in the form of quirks and Divine Energy." He said, already losing Tamaki, but interesting the other two. "Well, these goddesses have given me quirks when I need them since they use the Divine Energy that store in my body. And this Divine Energy is given to me in a steady flow, so I can't just get quirks all the time because I need it for them to heal my body after and during fights."

"Then why are you so tired? They should at least be able to help you with stamina since it is another form of energy." Concluded Nejire as Izuku looked toward the dorm then back at them.

"Besides the fact that they're usually sleeping or eating, I need Divine Energy to use my quirks since they aren't technically a part of my body like everyone else. But during the USJ incident, I had to defeat a villain called Nomu using a form they called False-Deity."

"That explains why the police could only find the bottom half of the Nomu and they could barely believe it if not for some surveillance cameras." Said Nejire once again as she put her chin on top of Izuku's head, propelling herself up using a small bit of her quirk. "What did it cost you to use that form?"

"All the Divine Energy I had after about three or so battles, the last one against a mob of villains. But I didn't have enough and the remainder I needed for that form was taken in the form of one of my quirks." He said, now looking at the ground before looking at his hands that were shaking from the memory. "That was my Body Supremacy quirk which allowed me to control all the functions of my body. Now that I lost it, the healing process is taking a bit more time and I can't use my other quirks as much without straining myself."

"Thank you for the explanation. Maybe we can help you train now that you're part of the student council," Mirio said with a smile.

"Really?" Izuku asked with excitement as Mirio nodded his head. "Thanks! I won't let you down!" He said before remembering the person whose head was on top of his own.

"Now, your first duty as part of the student council is to give me a piggy-back ride back to the council room!" Nejire said as Izuku secured her on his back and walked alongside Mirio and Tamaki, the latter of which seemed as awkward as can be.

For the rest of the day, the group had been going around classes and introducing themselves, but also writing the names of who wanted to participate in the Sports Festival. That list was nearly all of the first-year students, even Nejire lost her excitement for it after the first few classes. Though Izuku got a look at his competition, he didn't know anything about them and Tempi hugged him the moment he stepped into her classroom.

~ Time Skip to next week ~
~ Brought to you by Nejire asking Izuku countless questions ~

Monday morning was hectic. First, everyone was rushing to get ready before the festival started. Second, Momo was making last-minute clothes for the restaurant for an appealing look. Third, Izuku was nowhere to be found and the kitchen was on fire because of Eris.

So, that seems like a normal morning for Class 1-A when Izuku left early. Though he didn't get a choice since Mira dragged him out of the dormitory so they could get ready for the first opening ceremony.

Either way, let's skip to the opening ceremony that happened in a giant stadium that UA had prepared for them. Currently, Izuku was within a luxury box or something of the sort with the rest of the teachers (Except All-Might) and the student council.

"Midoriya, you'll be delivering a speech for everyone as part of the student council, okay?" Midnight asked out of nowhere as Izuku turned to look at her.

"W-Wait! I-I never prepared a speech! I-I don't even k-know what to say!" He shouted back at her before she pats him on the head, making him calm down slightly as he started to mumble.

"Just say something inspiring." She said before walking out of the luxury box and into the stadium, waving to everyone as she did so. "Welcome to UA's Sports Festival, everyone! We're glad you made it before the main event that'll be broadcasted across Japan!" The crowd cheered at the announcement, yet it happened every year so that even Izuku say it when he was little. "Now, before you go and check out your kid's classes, let's take a word from Izuku Midoriya! The hero of USJ! And new student council member of UA!"

At the moment, Izuku was pushed out of the luxury box by Nejire and Taira who both had cheeky grins on their faces. Eventually, he stood right next to Midnight who handed him the microphone she was using. "Hello, everyone. I'm glad you could make it." He said a bit awkwardly before a jolt ran through his body, making his hair turn a lime green color and his eyes an aqua color.

From that moment, Izuku couldn't control his body as it felt like someone else was controlling him. "I hope everyone enjoys their time here, but watch out for the real competition because I'm aiming for the win! Don't underestimate me!" He said though Izuku didn't mean to say those words. "But make sure to check out Class 1-A today! And watch out for me in the contests!"

With that, the crowd started to cheer as Izuku's hair and eyes turned back to their original color. "Nice speech, but you better get to your class as I wrap this up." The temptress beside him whispered before taking back the microphone as Izuku ran out of the stadium. "Alright, folks! The festival officially begins... Now!"

In just a matter of minutes, Class 1-A started getting costumers who were pleasantly surprised to see a classroom turned into a small five-star restaurant, with professional-looking waiters and waitresses that were previously students. 

"Alright, everyone! Let's just try to be nice to everyone and make sure they enjoy their time!" Izuku said to everyone who nodded before going to serve someone. Izuku did the same as the first table he went to had a blonde beauty that just so happened to be one of many temptress heroines. "Ah, Mt. Lady, how can I help you?"

"I told you to call me Yu when I'm like this, but could you get me some Takoyaki and maybe a peach cobbler for my dessert." She said as Izuku wrote it down and hurried out of the class to the cafeteria to see if Rikido had prepared some of the food.

When he got to the cafeteria, which only held a handful of students that were cooking for their class's event, Rikido was a mess. He had ingredients all over the place and didn't have any meals ready.

"Ah, Midoriya-kun, I didn't expect you to come here so fast." He said nervously as Izuku scowled at the mess he was making. "Sorry about the mess..."

"It's fine. How about you get cleaned up and take my place as a waiter? I'll start cooking and bring the orders myself."

"But I couldn't do that, I should be in the kitchen! Not in front of people and serving them!" Rikido whined before Izuku grabbed a kitchen knife and started to dice up vegetables at inhuman speeds.

"Get in there before I have to use this knife to cut something else!" He shouted, still cutting up vegetables before grouping them into a small bowl. "Get the rest of the orders while you're at it too! I think I need to stay here for the rest of the day by the rate that we're getting customers!" He shouted before taking out a pan that he set with vegetable on the stove and starting to add eggs into the same bowl the vegetables into.

"R-Right!" Rikido shouted before running off with some flour on his uniform.

And by the time some more waiters and waitresses came back, Izuku had already prepared quite a few dishes that were taken immediately. But if you peered into the kitchen, Izuku and Amaterasu were cooking at insane speeds, both working on different dishes at a time yet helping each other by throwing ingredients to each other and even some tools too.

Even if everyone was delighted with the food, most of the female customers were anticipating Izuku to be there. They didn't leave though, since they heard the food was all hand-made by Izuku.

By the end of the day, everyone was tired and slumped down somewhere in the dorm lounge, even Izuku who feel over the kitchen counter once he got back. Though they were treated to some of the extra dishes he made, they all were tired and on their way to their beds.

All except for one unlucky protagonist. All because someone decided to call him when all he wanted was some rest. 

"Hello?" He asked as he picked up his phone and made his way upstairs.

"Ah, Izuku! It's Tempi! I wanted to know if you can do a last-minute performance with me for the contest tomorrow." 

"What's in it for me?"

"Well, we both can make music and promote your hero agency whenever you get one. Then we can work together and make everyone happy! Wouldn't that be great?"

"Fine. Send me whatever you want me to do and I'll practice in the morning."

"Alright! All you gotta do is sing a duet with me!"

She immediately hung up after that as Izuku slumped onto his bed and wanted to die now. But then his phone turned on with a new email of the lyrics he needed to sing.

~ Time Skip ~
~ Brought to you by Izuku and Amaterasu cooking furiously ~

By the next day, Izuku was already tired from just watching other performances and trying to practice his own set of lyrics. But of course, quite a few people turned up to watch these performances in the stadium, though Izuku was quite curious about what made these events so great. After all, you're just watching someone sing, dance, and put on a small show. Albeit entertaining, he preferred to watch a fight than watch someone dance to some song. Yet he still had to do this for Tempi. 

"And next up is a duet from Tempi Ru and Izuku Midoriya!" Present Mic shouted from a judges table as the crowd cheered just from the calling of their names.

Walking towards the stage, the two looked at each other before grabbing microphones.

A/N: You can listen to the song I put up for you or just listen to your favorite song. I'm not forcing you to do anything besides rest your eyes from reading this long chapter.

Once Izuku and Tempi were done, the judges gave them a perfect score of thirty, due to synchronicity and making them all feel excited. Though that last part is only due to Tempi's quirk, she didn't even mention it as she dragged Izuku into the waiting room so the next performance could start.

And since your author is lazy, all the performances went by with great scores. All except Katsuki who joined to compete with Izuku at the last minute. He even tried to rap and failed so much that he got a score of zero.

Anyway, Present Mic was there to announce the winners or whatever. "Thank you all for performing tonight! But the judges have decided on a winner... with a perfect score.. come on stage: Tempi Ru and Izuku Midoriya!"

Walking onto the stage, Tempi grabbed the licenses and trophy that came with winning. Which left Izuku with the send-off speech, a terrible decision. But this time, his hair turned black while his eyes turned purple.

"Well, all I gotta say is a little bit of advice." He said involuntarily as everyone was on the edge of their seats. "Guys, do what the woman says."

And with that, he left in the blink of an eye.

Nope! I'm not typing anymore! My fingers are cramping up! I hope you're happy cause I'm skipping all the way to the Sports Festival's main event for the next chapter!

You all have no idea how hard it is to write these stories... Except for some of you, but that's a different story.
