Tokyo/ 29 may / 10 am.
Today in the bustling crowd of Shibuya Crossing which has always been drowned by the noises of footsteps a new change was to be seen, the once busy place where you only see endless swarm of people walking now stood still filled with whispers as they held their phones recording the billboard.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are reporting you live from the ground zero" A beautiful Japanese woman in black suit appeared on it, showcasing the grey square building cementoss built right outside the apartments.
The building was bland grey with no window and a large gate enough for All Might to access.
"The interview has just ended, although we were unfortunate to not get a access but it seems that the police have forbidden all channels from live broadcasting" she continued to talk to the viewers as she shows Cementoss repairing the apartment.
'It seems everything is going normally' In this endless crowd a boy wearing blue hood watched everything unfold calmly, normal Japanese oval face, brown hair brown eyes.
"It seems that the police are trying to hide something isn't it" he said in a loud enough voice that people around him can hear him.
Some old and some young looked toward him.
"If there was nothing to hide wouldn't they do the live broadcast? what about the guy with camera quirk why was he not there even though he left before anyone else" The small crowd of people started to mutter on their own.
"What are you implying young man" An old man with bald head wearing a formal black suit asked him.
"I am not implying anything" he raised his hands up showing a small smile.
"Just sayin how wired things are three famous pro hero's getting nuked by a middle schooler"
"What about his quirk? Isn't this a whole different soul? someone else took control of his body and that dark aura... you saw it right? it changed the whole atmosphere even Allmight was scared"
"He wasn't scared he was worried about the civilians" a redhead high school girl spoke, with hands on her hips glaring at the him 'A Fangirl I guess'
"That's obvious how can he be stronger than All Might" Many people agreed to the girl's argument it seemed like the situation was turning on him, yet he simply smirked.
"When was the last time All Might backed off when someone threatened him like that, I don't recall him doing that even when the slime monster that took a hostage."
"That quirk is one of a kind, to defeat three pro heroes in less than a minute and make all might retreat...that quirk is probably a mystery class.... and don't forget it's been less than a week while rest of us have our own for a decades."
'Not me'
'But that's just the start of everything' he smirked as he saw people's reaction their confidence was shaken because even if Deku wasn't stronger than all might they couldn't argue that it been less than a week since he awakened his quirk, if the word of media was to be believed.
"OK EVERYONE TIME TO GO HOME, THEY AIN'T RELEASING ANYTHING" Saying this he started pushing the people around trying to push as many as possible.
Some people questioned him as to why that was the case.
"Look people Belive me or not but today you are not seeing the interview, the police will say as something like the details of matter has yet to be confirmed so the interview will be posted after confirming if things were true or not" Many people disagreed with him, yet he just smiled and walked away.
"JUST REMEMBER THE POLICE DETECTIVE HAVE A TRUTH-DETECTING QUIRK AND HE WAS THERE"
'Jin boy... are you really sure this is all that good' a heavy male voice rang in his mind.
'Chosen one or not, it's simply a fact that you...aren't strong enough to hold my power and doing this...you are too weak for things like these'
'If a situation arise... your body breaks like shrimps, you only have claws... and eyes...good enough for most but not for everyone, the nargacuga was perfect if you had just mastered their power.' the voice stopped its complained too tired of discussing this already.
'well that's the disadvantage of soul side'
'....even though I am thankful you choose it, but I don't see any sense in that'
The boy didn't reply he just calmly walked back through the endless maze of people, his hands in his pocket.
No one noticed the figure of the unremarkable boy leaving the crowd as they were too busy talking on their own and speculating about things, his face shifting like a molding clay.
----------------------------------------
20 minute later
The boy suddenly took a sharp turn into a old alley, garbage littered around while a drunk man lay on the ground, his eyes turned yellow and his nails morphed into the hooked claws of lagiacrus.
he kept walking and walking in this seemingly endless alley that defied common logic.
'Sometimes you gotta do what your heart says, it's hard to explain man'
'Sigh A recipe for dying young...but this is be the only way to survive the destiny'
The boy stood at the end of an alley in front was an old brown door it looked as if someone had drawn it on the wall.

Tap knock boom.
He first slapped the door in the middle knocked at the handle and kicked the corner left of door.
SLICK
A small opening opened in the dirty wall beside.
"Welcome" a twisted robotic voice said and soon the opening was gone
The door opened up, and in front of him an old bar with cheap drink the place wasn't that big, devoid of anyone but himself, most of the things was brown or black, with cigarette buds lying on the floor.
There were six stools and a table behind displaying the half-finished wine and beverages.
Taking note of the place he placed his foot in, he watched it carefully, his feet moved 2 steps ahead from there, then 1 step to the right and walked straight until he stood in front of the oldest looking stool, the 4th if counted from left, he placed it above on top of 3rd stool he moved toward the 6th stool lifting it and placing it right on the spot he first took a step.
CLICK!
Everything turned dark no room no bar no stool everything vanished.
Click!
Gone was the old bar now in front of them stood a silver and gold-themed luxurious bar, with endless expensive wine and most importantly a person, cleaning the glass.
"Welcome to my humble aboard sir...not many people get invited here.... and tend to remember those who do...so who might you be"
Jin closely stared at the man, who spoke without even looking toward him busy cleaning his glasses.
Short grey hairs on the side, and balding have caught up to him with a clean-shaven his comic iconic black moustache and black eyebrows with a strong jawline and stern expression.
A classic butler's outfit, This includes a black tailcoat, white dress shirt, black bow tie, and waistcoat, with a dignified and calm demeanour, he stands and moves with a sense of quiet authority and grace.
'Seems like he didn't lie kid' Lagiacrus spoke amusingly
"I thought everyone was welcomed here"
"Yes...but I don't recall you being invited here sir..." he paused looking at Jin
"Grey"
"Sir grey mind telling how you find... let's forget that.... sir... I am long retired, just an old man with hollow bones" The man looked at Jin, trying to recall who this uninvited guest was, yet his face was completely different, gone was the burned eye and black hairs it was replaced by brown hair, grey eyes and handsome hairless western face.
The man's eye suddenly widened as he watched Jin's face twist and revert to his real face, with a scar on his left eye, although his haired remained the same.
"Impossible IMPOSSIBLE" The middle-aged man spoke in shock.
Jin chuckled lightly "Well there are many people who have multiply power some are thieves while other well farmer? I guess"
The man's face looked shocked when he heard that, before it reverted to a calm expression as if nothing had happened, yet his eyes remained on Jin
"....how long have you been pretending or should I say planning for..." he watched Jin walk toward the bar looking at his wine collection.
"Whiskey or wine" he asked politely.
"Whatever you prefer" The man looked confused and raised his eyebrow but didn't say anything
He takes a bottle pouring it silently in the glass he was cleaning "Fernet-Branca" he pushes the glass toward jin "It's for you" Jin pushes the glass back to him confusing him
"After all it is not pleasant to hear your enemy being alive"
"I require your service you require our data for all for one...right MR Alfred, should we call you the dungeon master"
His eyes widen and his hand reaches for drink gulping it in one go while jin stares at him with his yellow eyes 'I expected more from him'
"I would like orange juice"
'The problem of every smart man, he think too much and forget that he is dreaming'
'Oh and don't forget the by-product of those eyes, i have yet too see such a brave man'
----------------------------------------
A few moments after all might and luminous backed off.
Tring!
Tring!
"Please tell me it was because of civilian"
All might in his deflated form sat alone in the sedan the windows were tainted, so no one could see him.
"Obviously"
Hearing that they don't have a monster on their doors nedzu breathes calmly.
"But he knows...about... one for all and all for one" All might spoke his voice more of squeak.
"PUFFFF" Nedzu jumped from his seat as he spat the tea on his table.
"WHAT! YAGI! Are you sure about it" Even though nedzu knew the answer his mouth spoke on it's own, trying to shut what his brain was speaking
"I don't know.... he just told me face front" His already sunken figure looked even more fragile, his eyes looked more hollow while Nedzu kept shouting through the phone, he just kept his eyes closed. "Nedzu" he called softly "I want to meet that kid you told me about"
The voice on the other side died a little "It-it doesn't mean that he is alive"
"...I don't think he has any relation with him... I know him well... he's too much of a coward to give a quirk like that...until he has full control over him."
"I'll run a background check just to be sure"
"Nedzu I am not sure but... I-I have feeling his quirk is just like ours..." he ate some of the words he wanted to speak.
"Maybe someone passed it to that jin boy... and he passed it to this one"
Hearing that all for one had nothing to do with it was a great news but after that, nedzu felt his fur had lost it's shine the cup was thrown to the side of room as his mind worked at full speed trying to think of something, something that makes sense.
"I will arrange your meeting with him today... oh and make sure that interview doesn't go live"
"...i see" he had some doubts as to why but he knew Nedzu had his reasons.
"If he said something that world isn't ready for it would be a disaster"
"....The condition was for reporters to be their"
"So they will, just not a live interview"
Nedzu hung the phone his face grimmer than ever "Mike, Eraser talk to major news channel heads, tell them we will keep their footage for a while....say that i owe a favour"
"What if they don't agree" Aizawa asked different from his usual lazy behaviour.
"do what you know" Aizawa and Mike smiled at his response and left the room.
Nedzu could only hold his head in pain wondering what was going on with the world.
'I will monitor that kid myself, that's the only way I can be sure' his face holding a grim determination
----------------------------------------
"Kurogiri...make sure we know everything about that kid, and make get our spy is in the same class, and find me that other boy" the masked man spoke through the TV
"As you wish master" The man bowed down his purple flames glowing silently.
"Sensei are you sure that he isn't dead already? and even if he is alive he doesn't have the quirk so isn't he just useless?"
A man with hands sticking to his face and body walked through the dimly lit room, watching the small TV closely.
While the masked man slowly shook his head "Shigariki.... we might have to change the nomu plan"
"WHAT! I PREPARED SO MUCH FOR IT WE HAVE TO KILL ALL MIGHT."
"We will child....just wait" The man shook his face as if disappointed 'He was not ready if only I could have a quirk like that... hahaha' he looked one last time toward Shigaraki 'We won't need you anymore.'
----------------------------------------
Before anyone could know the world began changing far more differently than what Jin had ever know, and the destined one of this world roams in this distant land
"So you are saying this contract...will somehow help me" Deku looked toward Nargaret his face not hiding his suspicion.
"What you don't believe me?" she asked while raising her eyebrows.
"I was just fine before" he muttered while looking down still scared from her.
"Look kid it's just like I explained your quirk or the one who gave you just work like that"
"So are you saying if he choose the body route, I would simply have all your power?" deku couldn't think why Jin didn't choose this path if he could use his power without restraints how powerful would he be?
"I...to be real I also don't know why he chooses this option, it seems stupid to me but...I won't complain being alive so" Deku looked her questioningly but she didn't explain.
"Either way because of the stunt you put things have gone complicated... but with the contract in place you can unlock our power bit by bit SAFELY"
'Although you have to clear task for that....but that's for another day'
"The contract allows us to take over you when we think you are about to die, though it will reduce your progress over our power"
"....how did he do it then?"
"That's the catch because, unlike Jin, whenever you enter here your body becomes dead no heartbeat so luminous had to take your space if not all of us would die."
"It's just that it's counted as a forceful takeover, that little rat made a rule that if we do so, our soul will weaken and eventually vanish...if I hadn't made you sign contract then boom"
"I-i am sorry about that"
"It's fine....it's just that you will be weakened a lot... I doubt you can transform more than 2 limbs now"
"NO WAY!"
"By the way when I first tried to ea-greet him he threw the ground at me," she said innocently keeping her hand on her face as if thinking deeply "Can you do that"
"Threw the ground?"
"Ya he just pushed his hand forward and the whole ground shot toward me it was really terrifying you know"
"I-I will try" Deku closes his eyes focusing his mind on image of a landslide.
'Was it because this was his quirk or something else'
'I will give it a try'
"LANDSLIDE!" his voice echoed but nothing moved completely still
"...."
" human...stupid" The three remained there 2 looked amused while Deku silently cried.
