CHAPTER START---

Walking into the 1A dorms Horizon is immediately hit with a cacophony of noisy chatter.

All the remaining students of 1A and 1B are now gathered, he sees some sitting at the tables. Others at the couch, and most of the girls are on beanbags in the middle of the room chatting.

Looking over toward the kitchen, Shoji and Bakugo were cooking, with some help from Asui.

"Horizon!" Mina yells out, causing everyone to turn toward him. "You here to wish us luck on the exam tomorrow?"

"Don't involve me in the outcome of your exams Pinky, win or lose on your own..." he says before walking over to the kitchen.

Mina gives an exaggerated frown, "you know it wouldn't kill you to be nice!"UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

"It might."

Arriving at the kitchen, he sees Bakugo, Asui, and Shoji staring at a pot of some brown sludge.

"What is that supposed to be?"

"The sauce for the Tofu," Bakugo growls out.

Shoji rubs the back of his neck, "I may have read the recipe wrong."

"It'll be ok, we can probably fix it," Asui gives him a pat on the arm.

"Uh-huh, can't follow simple steps, good thing its not like people will be counting on you to save them or anything," Horizon walks over to the counter and places a card on the table.

"You don't have to rub it in, he made an honest mistake," Asui points out.

"Whatever," Horizon raises a hand and snaps his fingers, swapping the metal card for a stack of two dozen pizzas, a tower of boxes ripped out of some of their dreams. "And Horizon saves the day yet again, enjoy..."

It takes a moment for everyone to process what is happening, that he actually did something nice for them. Then they yell a chorus of thanks to Horizon, which he ignores.

Walking toward Sero while everyone else moved toward the kitchen.

And a moment later only he and Sero are in the couch area with the tv, and Sero is giving him a bored stare.

"What?" Horizon asks as he sits on the left side of the couch, opposite Sero's single seat.

"You put me on a diet then buy everyone pizza...that's diabolical."

Horizon just leans back, laughing, "didn't even think about that. How's that been going by the way?"

"Honesty, I don't know if it's good or bad that I don't even want the pizza at this point. My life is all upside down."

"It's called progress, see, told you I'd make you into a good Hero. Disciplined, efficient, and effective, that's all you need."

"Yeah, then comes the money," Sero smiles.

"And the women."

"Ye---uhhh," Sero cuts himself off as Yui takes the single seat beside him, eating a slice of pizza. "Well, one is just enough, for me atleast."

"Think I'm dating every girl I appear in a picture with, as usual," Horizon groans.

"Yeah, but you do look good with her."

"I look good with any pretty girl," Horizon says. "But Nejire is far too damn annoying, girl never shuts up. All her stupid questions about my Quirk and my suit and the visor and...you get the point."

Momo perks up at that, until Sero asks, "what about Ryukyu, see seems like your type."

"She is, too bad she's a Pro Hero, that seems like such a headache to deal with."

Momo frowns at that but quickly schools her expression. And Sero bites his tongue instead of voicing his opinion, which more closely resembles Horizon's stance on that matter as the days pass.

The idea of Yui getting hurt doesn't sit well with him at all.

But he kept that to himself, especially with his Hero Course girlfriend beside him.

"Well that's good," Momo says. "I mean, the fact that crime is declining again. And you did well in contributing to that."

"Naturally."

"But that begs the question, why are you back at UA? It seems unlike you to come all the way back here to wish us luck when you could be working, not that we don't appreciate it."

"I honestly didn't know the exam was tomorrow until I spoke to Nezu on the phone."

"Oh, you didn't see the class chat group?"

"I don't check that, your opinions and personal lives aren't that valuable to me."

Kendo shakes her head, "well you don't have to be an ass about it."

"Get over it fister."

"That's not my hero name!"

"Might as well be," Horizon sees Sero suppress a laugh. "Nezu called me back to work on a different issue. So while you're all in the exams I'll be dealing with that."

"You and Principal Nezu are pretty close huh," Sero says. "How did that happen anyway?"

Horizon shrugs, "well over a year ago he needed a doctor for All Might. Chance brought us together, then he realized I was strong and capable, and All Might was running on fumes. So he decided to get a replacement Symbol Of Peace ready before All Might retired."

"So All For One ruined the timeline he had plotted out?" Momo asks.

"Exactly."

"So he really did just bet on you," Kendo was in genuine awe at what she just heard. "That's, insane. Should you really be telling us this?"

"It's not like the principal tries to hide it," Tokoyami says. "From day one he made it clear that he has a favorite student. On the second day he even told us directly that he doesn't expect anyone to ever match Horizon, atleast 1-on-1, within UA."

"Yeah, hearing that sucked, plus you were a total jerk from the first day of school, just the worst," Sero says, and his classmates nod in agreement. "And that was right after we saw what Shoto could do. Meanwhile, I've just got tape..."

"Nezu isn't the most... emotionally wise person. But his logical mind more than compensates," Horizon says.

"No wonder you two get along so well," Kendo says. "But atleast when he's a jerk it's accidental."

Horizon looks down to his left, directly at Momo. "Well, if it ever stops working maybe I'll consider changing it, but for now, I'll enjoy the life it gives me..."
