Hey Y'all! Sorry I've been inactive I'm in University so things are often very stressful and busy. I will try and update when I can but yes I'm still alive! Thank you for all the wonderful reviews, I know I don't respond but I read and appreciate them nonetheless!

"Goooooood Morning kiddo!" the voice was loud and excited and given his previous state of exhausted slumber it was enough to send Izuku flying out of the bed.
"What? Hmm!?" he scrambled in the sheets, looking around, momentarily confused as he looked up at the woman with blonde hair and boxing gloves she never really seemed to remove. "Oh right, different dimension."
"Hah, sorry didn't mean to scare ya! I thought I gave you plenty of time to sleep in too." Carol extended her hand to him to help him back to feet. He was still in his clothes from the previous day due to well, not having anything else to wear. Hair, well, it was always a mess so it didn't really matter.
"No no, it's my fault. I'm usually a pretty good at waking up early but…"
She looked over his shoulder and to the pile of blankets, scattered were multiple napkins with scribbles on them, "What on earth were you working on last night?" Carol grinned, making Izuku check back.

He went over and picked the napkins up, "Well, you see, back in my home dimension, hah, that's so weird to say, well I you see. I like to keep notes of heroes so I can learn from them and how I can apply them to myself. Well, that and it's all just so cool to learn about. When you showed me some of KO's POW Cards he had, well, I tried to piece together what I could for them." he flipped through the napkins. "It's all pretty incredible, an entire new world of heroes." he was getting excited again as he looked through the notes.

"I can say for sure KO is thinking the same thing. Kid loves collecting these cards for a reason." Carol said, leading him out of the room.

"Speaking of him actually. I was looking at his POW level in comparison with others and even plenty of adults are below 5, is that normal for his age or…?" Izuku asked, trying not to bring up how cool it was he was considered a pretty high level hero himself here.

"KO is anything but normal." she laughed. "But in the year since he started working at the Bodega he shot up faster than I've seen any other kid, any other hero go up and that's not just the mom in me talking."
"But you're the perfect person to talk about this! You're level 11! It's absolutely incredible, I wanted to ask you please please if you could give me some pointers, or a demonstration of you power. I would be honored to learn from you really." he said, giving an earnest bow.
"You're getting a head of yourself kid, no need for all the show really. My days of big hero work are..behind me you could say. Nothing too flashy anymore."

"Please, I'm, still working out allot of my own technique. I was reading about how you worked for the group POINT, and from what I could tell it's not a small thing just to be considered by them. Even if you're not actively working anymore I know you have plenty you could teach me while I'm here ma'am."

Carol nodded, "Alright but I'm not sure how good my own techniques would do for you considering my ability is Mimic."

Izuku flipped through the napkins, "Yes I remember reading that too on your card but could you explain it more?"

"A bit later maybe, right now we need to eat and head to the Plaza. I have work today and you still need to speak with Mr. Gar."

"Yes ma'am!"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S GONE!" Enid flinched as Mr. Gar yelled into her and Rad's faces. It wasn't anger at them at least, at least she didn't think so. More like shock it seemed.

"We uh, mean like we said, this dude who was like, talking to himself did some portal stuff and one second KO, next second, no KO." Rad explained again.
"And this weird kid popped out. He's a good guy at least but he doesn't know what exactly is going on either other than he and his friends also fought a villain like the one we did." She continued.

"Well where is this kid then?" Mr. Gar asked.

There was the ringing of a bell from the front of the store, a head with a dark green mop of hair poked inside. "Uhh, hello is anyone here?"
"Deku there you are!" Enid said, rushing to his side, "Yeah ahah, this is the kid, Mr. Gar this is Izuku Midoriya, but he likes to called Deku or-."

"Midoriya is fine really." Izuku said, extending his hand out, to the complete mountain of a man. That was no exaggeration either. Made just a bit awkward by the noticeable lack of clothes on Mr. Gar's body.

Mr. Gar took the hand, nearly crushin it, "Mr. Gar."

"Hahah, well seems like everyone's great and introduced I'm back to the counter then."

Enid said, walking away.

"Aaaannd I'm off to stock shelves or something." Rad followed.

"So, you're from another dimension huh?" Gar said, a moment after the two of them were left alone.

"That's ahh, what it seems. Nothing in this world makes sense otherwise, in a weird suspension of disbelief kinda way. But it's very good to meet you sir really. I may be new to this whole POW Card thing but I was researching last night, and it's incredible that your level is 11. You and Ms. Carol must've been something incredible back in the day." Izuku said, "Of course, all I have is what I found on this world's internet but it's still impressive sir."

Izuku saw something, maybe a chink in the armor of the man, when he mentioned the idea of the two's past adventures, "Hmm, something like that. So this world of yours?"

"Well sir, it's another super hero society, I'm training to become a pro hero myself, aside from if you know anything about something like that, I was wondering if-" a mop was shoved into Izuku's face.

"Good, well get to work. Nothing builds a good hero like hard work. We close up shop at 6:30." Mr. Gar said, walking away.

"H-huh?"

Enid and Rad were leaning in past a shelf, "You owe me five turbos, I knew he'd make him work." Enid snickered.

When he'd been told that Mr. Gar was training the heroes Rad, Enid, and KO, this was absolutely not what Izuku was expecting when he went to him for questions. He hardly gotten the chance to ask about the whole world transporting thing if he knew anything about it, much less for help from someone Izuku would equate to a pro hero. Nope. Instead of any of that he was running up and down the store, mopping up the increasingly absurd messes which happened almost as soon as he cleaned the aisle.

It was frustrating, but it must've done something for them right? The three of them had all leveled up while working here which would require there to be some sort of merit to the repeated actions.

Or maybe the knowledge of the amount of trouble retail workers went through was enough to make someone a better person in comparison to the unreasonable customers who walked in.

He hoped that wasn't what being a hero meant here.

Izuku was in the middle of wiping off the bizarre condiment station, the names alone raising his eyebrow as for the safety of them, when an alarm began blaring. His immediate thought went to a fire alarm and the evacuation of people in the building. Instead he heard a grumble from the counter followed by Enid and Rad running for the front door.

"Hey Deku! You want to show your stuff now's the time!" Rad yelled.

Confused, he ran out to follow them, "What's going, is everything okay?"

"Oh yeah dude don't worry." Rad assured him, the sky forming cloud from out of nowhere, darkening the area.

"We didn't mention it before but pretty much every day we get attacked by the bozos across the street from Boxmore." Enid explained, "They've gotten a bit tougher recently but if you're level 5 you should be fine."

"Wait wait, villains just attack you guys? Out of no where?" Izuku asked, shocked but already thinking of what he was about to be faced with.

Of all things, it was a large box which fell from the sky were the clouds were, clearing the next moment.

"Hah, yeah, but we're pretty used to it by now. The guy across the street Lord Boxman, and I guess, Professor Venomous too, they send robots to try and 'destroy the plaza' or whatever." Enid continued.

"If they're doing that why doesn't anyone try and arrest them or something, anything if they're always attacking? That's putting innocent people in danger!"

"Eh, it's his business. Everyone needs a job you know, no one deserves unemployment." Rad said. The box opening to reveal, sure enough, a red a single eye robot with a green dome over its head.

Izuku could handle the absurdity of that but not the fact that, "What? So you guys just fight them again and again but what about-"

"Talk later we've got a Darrell!" Enid yelled, rushing forward to the robot who was already running at them, armed with a, well, arm, canon arm to be exact.

"Hhahahahahah! It's m, Darrell you Lakewood Losers!" the robot laughed.

"Not a chance metal brain!" Enid yelled, ducking under one of the blasts from the canon and sliding to kick the robots feet from under him.

"It's just a Darrell, Deku, c'mon!" Rad said, running into the fray as well when Enid's kick missed and she slid right past Darrell who moved to shoot her while she was down.

Izuku held back, enough time to watch the robot fight the two of them to get an idea of what to do. Partially to watch for any weakness it had, but also to watch Enid and Rad in action.

It was for the best he didn't have something to write on because he would have been tempted to scribble notes. The situation, despite being a non-regulated out of the blue fight, really didn't feel dangerous in the way a rogue robot fight should feel. The 'Darrell' was outnumbered anyways.

At least it seemed so. The sky filled with clouds again, marking the appearance of a second box as well that he had to roll out of the way from to avoid being crushed. This box opened to another robot he assumed, orange and wielding a buzz saw from its hands. "Awww who's the newbie, finally trashed the old squirt!"

The robot rolled towards him, and he got out of the way, "Don't talk about KO that way you spoiled brat!" Enid yelled, too busy keeping up with the Darrell to do much more than that. "Deku! We got Darrell, try and hold her off!"

"Deku huh? You sound like just as much of a squirt as the other kid." she said, "I'm Shannon, and I'm going to love tearing you to pieces!"

As she lunged at him again, he got into position, making adjustments to his legs. Izuku was still getting used to his new style of fighting, but trial by fire sometimes had proved to work in the past. "I'd like to see you try!" he replied, jumping out of the way more gracefully this time.

Shannon as she called herself, was not expecting the speed he displayed, or the blue energy flashing around him. "Oohohoh, do you think your fancy footwork is any good for you bub?" she said after recovering from the initial shock. The buzz saw vanished into one hand as a normal hand took its place and shot out, grabbing his ankle.

"Shoot." he muttered to himself, being slammed into the ground by the robot, making a sizeable dent in the parking lot. Izuku pushed himself up, avoiding the saw which appeared again, swinging down towards him. Wait, KO was 9 right? He was fighting villains like these on the regular? And Carol was worried about his world?

On the ground already put him at a disadvantage, but he didn't let that stop him. Leaning back into the ground and kicking his legs out up at her, pushing the power of One for All into his leg towards her head, quite literally sending it spinning.

"Gah! How dare you!" she snapped, catching her head to keep in from spinning, "I'll make you pay for that you Deku!"

"Do you even know what that means?" he asked, back on his feet and being the one to launch himself at her this time, smacking her back with his kicks.

At this point, his fight growing closer to Enid and Rad's who were having their own, different problems with the canon blasting Darrell.

Radicles had his zero point energy quirk which he remembered, and while he couldn't place Enid's just yet it looked like it involved kicking and...teleporting leaving a tree trunk behind? He'd have to ask more about it since her POW Card had it listed as 'Ninja'. "How're you holding up? " Enid asked, growing closer to him.

"What is with these robots? You seriously fight them everyday?" he asked, the two of them being floated away by Rad from an energy blast as they'd been fighting Shannon in that moment.

"Well yeah but we can still totally handle it dude." Rad replied, Shannon rushing him when he'd saved them.

"We're fighting so why don't you losers stop having a chat!" Shannon yelled at him.

Izuku started racking his brain, they said they could handle it but they'd also mentioned they'd been getting more difficult. What if today was the day it was too much for them? He was a higher level than them and in this dimension's sense the robots should have been easier for him but he was struggling just to keep up with Shannon, much less Darrell on top of that.

While lost in his thoughts, he started analyzing his environment as well, looking for something that they could use. Being in a parking lot though, meant a bit more destruction of property than he liked. But he caught sight of it, ducking from Darrell's cannon again which signed the top of his hair just a bit. As well as hearing Darrell yelling for being so close but missing.

One of the...he guessed, tank cars, already had been partially crushed during the fight, gasoline dripping from it. And Enid's kicks, they emitted a fire around them.

Oh, if he was in his dimension he'd be in so much trouble for this.

"Hey Shannon, that's your name right? "He yelled, catching her attention from Rad who was obviously a bit hesitant to fight her for a reason he just couldn't place. "It's a pretty plain name for a fighting robot huh? Not even a turbo at the end? Same thing to you Darrell, what's your deal?"

"Yeah are you dumb too squirt?" Shannon shouted at him, running in his direction.

"Heyyyyyy, what are you making fun of our names!?" Darrell yelled too, also moving his way.

Izuku started making his way towards the leaking tank. "Rad, Enid over here!" he yelled

"Not the best insult I could have thought of but I guess their names are sort of bland." Enid said, "What are you planning?"

Izuku nodded, "Rad, see that tank over there." he pointed to it, "I need you to move the robots on or near it. When they're there, Enid, can you do one of your flame kicks towards the gas line?"

"Oh I see, we're gonna blast em?" Rad asked, punching his palm with his fist.

"Yeah exactly, I just hope the owner doesn't mind too much." he said, the robots reaching them the next moment.

Izuku kneed up when Darrell got within reach to him, as Enid avoided Shannon's blade and kicked her into Darrell.

Once the two robots were next to each other, Rad caught them in his energy beam, throwing them by the tank.
"Hah! Is that as far as you can throw us? Just a few feet?" Darrell laughed.

"I'd look at what you're standing in before saying anything else." Enid replied, firing her flaming kick into the gasoline.

"Oh crud." Darrell and Shannon said together as they watched the area around them ignite and eventually explode, sending them flying broken into the air.

Izuku was panting by then. "Is that it?"

"Yeah looks like they're done for today, quick thinking Deku." Enid grinned, lightly punching him in the shoulder. "Also, your kicks are pretty cool and that whole energy thing around you."

"Pfft, it's cool and all but did you see me, I was like, whoosh and sent them flying right into the tank and BOOM." Rad grinned.

"Yeah you are both pretty incredible though, honestly I'm trying to get used to a kicking style of fighting. I used to focus on punching up until I hurt my hands." he explained.

"Well I'd say you're well on your way." Enid assured him.

"You're really good at that style of fighting yourself, I haven't met many heroes who focus on that style, and if you could give me any tips."

"No problem Deku but maybe later, I'm pooped. They didn't have any new powers today or anything but…"

"Ughh, they felt like they took forever to take down like, what the heck?" Rad grumbled.

"Are you sure then, that no one should be investigating into that place to stop this from happening. If they're getting stronger like that then.." Izuku trailed off.

Enid nudged him, "Don't think about it too hard, right now we need to clean up the mess."

"Oh right, we'd better find the guy whose tank we wrecked." Rad said.

"Here I was thinking that finally, finally after so long.. We'd have a shot of destroying those Plaza brats but no, no. Even with that...gahhhh, KO gone which Iiii thought was great and yet somehow, somehow you two get beat up." the man who was ranting, round in shape and in a white lab coat, part cyborg, part….chicken? Took a deep breath, "BY A NOBODY WANNABE HERO!"

"We're really sorry daddy! " Darrell, at least, a new Darrell model, said.

"Yeah like, he was totally tougher than that other squirt even with all of our tune ups." Shannon added. "Like, he was holding back then oh no he's kicking like a kangaroo!"

"I thought those punched?" Darrell said.

"No excuse!" he yelled back at the two of them. "If he was holding back that was all the more time to destroooy this new brat!"

"Well we probably would have if he hadn't gotten the other two to trick us into that dumb explosion." Shannon countered.

"Boxman." there was a knock at the door of the office they were currently in.

Lord Boxman shot back into his chair as he'd been leaning forward towards his robot children. "Door is opened!" he called back, tone switching to much more casual.

In walked a tall man, his skin pinkish purple and dark hair styled back, "Am I interrupting something?" he asked, Shannon and Darrell taking the chance to run out of the room.

"Professor Venomous, no no of course not!" Boxman assured him as he walked in, "I was just...talking to them about their most recent….defeat at the Plaza, even with the Micro Bio Chips you added to their recent models. Terribly sorry but there must've been a few screws loose somewhere else ahahh, not on account of you though obviously."

"I'm aware, I was watching the fight from the upper floors." Venomous said. "I was expecting them to be more worn from the villain they fought yesterday and the loss of...KO. If it weren't for that boy I'm sure have been a success."

"Don't get me started on that villain! Coming in, trashing the plaza, defeating our enemies! The nerve of some people." Boxman huffed, "And then he just, whisks one of them away and drops another hero whose just as, if not more frustrating!"

"It's not encouraging no. But there's something strange about him. I was following his movements with the cameras we had on Darrell and Shannon, and his powers were bizarre. I don't know how to put it but I don't believe that warp we saw yesterday was exclusive to this dimension."

"Hmm, what are you saying?"

"I'm not sure yet...I'd like to research him more. There's something I think we're missing."

Hhahah thanks again for sticking around. I really appreciate it that I kept getting favs, reviews, and follows during this break and no promises that I'll keep a consistent schedule but thank you again!
