"So we are to be Earth heroes now," Koriand'r said as she watched Izuku work on building a new staff.

"Seems so Kori," Izuku said offhandedly.

"Why would you try so hard if you did not have a quirk," she asked as she floated around his room lazily bumping into the walls.

"I," Izuku paused as he was unsure if he was ready to confess. "Heroes don't run," Izuku thought. "I didn't want to not see you," he turned.

"But I am here and you are able to look at me," Koriand'r said in confusion.

"No, I mean," Izuku took a deep breath. "I didn't want you to leave, so I tried to get into U.A. so I could be with you," his cheeks a deep rosy color as he blushed from telling Koriand'r the truth.

"Why would you want to be with me," she asked as her heart thumped in her chest.

"Because I want to," Izuku said quietly. "You're so kind and gentle, you look at everything so differently than other people, things like me."

"I like looking at you Izuku," Koriand'r said as she landed on the floor. "When you would go off with the pink haired girl, it hurt right here," she grabbed Izuku's hand and placed it on her chest where her heart was.

For Izuku this meant he had a handful of Koriand'r's breast and now his face was red as his blood rushed quickly from one end to the other and he was on the verge of passing out.

"I missed you dearly and wished to see you every day," Koriand'r said as she wiped a tear from her eye. "Now that you are going to the school, I will not feel this way," she said happily as she smiled.

Izuku's body had been reacting in the way any teenagers body would once he was touching boob, but his emotions took over once he saw the princess's face. "Koriand'r will you be my girlfriend?" he asked.

"I am confused," Koriand'r replied. "Am I not a girl and your friend already?"

"Well a girlfriend is something special, it means we d-date and k-kiss," Izuku stammered.

"Oh, like," Koriand'r leaned forward as her breathing slowed down and she connected her lips to Izuku's. For a long while, neither teen broke the embrace. "That?" she asked as she removed her lips from Izuku's a strand of spit connecting their mouths.

"Yeah," Izuku gasped out.

"Okay," Koriand'r nodded slowly. "I like kissing you," she said as she leaned in for more.

"So are you two ready for your first official day at U.A.?" Inko asked as she saw her two babies standing in their uniforms at the door, holding hands.

"Mhm," Koriand'r nodded happily, her enjoyment of going to the school much higher since she would be going with Izuku, her boyfriend. She thought it was cute that the Earthlings had names for different stages of the relationship, instead of just saying he was her betrothed.

Izuku on the other hand looked a bit nervous as he rested the new and improved Cosmic Staff on his shoulder. "Yeah, it's going to be great," he said, mostly to reassure himself that he could do this.

"Tell me all about your day when you get two get back," she waved her goodbyes to the teens.

"I just hope it's not too crazy," Izuku said as he recalled how crazy things had gotten at his middle school when it was announced that not just one but three students from their school was going to be attending U.A., something they said might be a record.

The student body at Aldera was cheering loudly as the principal read from the letter sent to his school by Nezu., "And the three students are," the principal started to announce. "Katsuki Bakugo," to the surprise of no one as he had been an expected win. "Koriand'r," was the next name called, which to some was weird as they didn't know the orange skinned girl all that well, but it was a rumor that she wasn't afraid of Bakugo so she had to be tough was the general consensus.

"And Izuku Midoriya," the principal faltered as he said the name of his schools only quirkless student.

"What?!" the assembled classmates shouted as no one had expected to hear that name called.

"Aheh," Izuku tugged at his collar as he saw the entire class glare at him.

"He had to have cheated."

"There's no way he got in, it has to be a mistake."

"Is it some pity placement he got?"

While Izuku was used to whispered conversations about himself, these dug deeper as he legitimately succeeded at something in his life and nobody believed it. However he was not the one most enraged by the lack of belief in his achievements.

"Don't," whispered Izuku as he quickly took Koriand'r's hand to stop her from yelling. "It's not worth it. We only have a few days left and then we don't have to worry about this anymore."

"Fine," Koriand'r sighed as she folded her arms, still glaring at the other students in attendance. "But I require a kiss, if you are going to tell me to do things," she puffed out her cheeks in annoyance.

"He-here," Izuku gasped.

"Yes, I want one now," Koriand'r demanded.

"O-okay," Izuku nervously said as he leaned towards her.

"Hey look everyone," someone pointed and laughed, drawing everyone's attention. "Izuku's trying to kiss the only girl in the school who doesn't think he's repulsive."

"I bet she throws up," someone else snickered.

Getting frustrated Koriand'r opened her mouth to start berating her classmates when Izuku latched his lips onto hers and deeply kissed her, shoving his tongue in her own mouth to wrestle for dominance.

"D-dude," a student said as they watched Koriand'r lose the sudden battle and roll her eyes into the back of her head as she fell into the passions of Izuku's kiss.

As soon as Izuku broke the kiss, Koriand'r's eyes rolled back down. "Aheh," Izuku chuckled. "A bit much?" he nervously asked.

"MORE," Koriand'r said loudly as she slammed Izuku into the wall and began to make out with him, not caring one bit at who could see or that the principal was shouting at her to stop. After two minutes of denying Izuku oxygen, Koriand'r finally let his head go. Izuku slumped to the ground where he had to draw in deep breaths to keep himself from passing out. "We need to train how long you hold your breath boyfriend," Koriand'r casually said. "You will need it for later."

Slowly Izuku nodded his head. "We can do that, yeah," he said breathlessly.

After that kiss, Izuku didn't pay any of his tormentor's mind, so the last few days at Aldera were his most peaceful because he was living his dream, and he had this amazing orange-skinned alien to thank for it all.

"1-A, is it over here," Izuku asked.

"Yes, it is down this hallway," Koriand'r said as she navigated the large campus having been here many times prior.

Izuku nervously took Koriand'r's hand and entered the room with her, only to see Katsuki arguing with another student.

"Hello new friends," Koriand'r loudly greeted the class who looked at her in confusion. She tugged Izuku behind her as she found to open seats next to each other. Seating herself and Izuku in them.

"Oh good," Aizawa said as he entered the room. "Only two students out of there seats," he said as he eyed Iida and Bakugo arguing with each other about how to behave.

"The rest of you, put on these uniforms and head out to the field, except you Midoriya," Aizawa instructed the class. As the class began to file out they were confused why one of their classmates was required to remain behind but didn't know him well enough to comment on it, or in the case of Koriand'r knew what would they might be talking about and Bakugo fuming as he didn't have a chance to yell at Deku yet today. "So, this is the new "Cosmic Staff"," he asked as he eyed the piece of tech in his hands.

"Yup, a few modifications and maybe a couple of design changes and it's better than ever," Izuku smiled.

"You can't use it today," Aizawa said as he started to head out the door. "The test is to see what you can do, not your staff."

"I," Izuku started to protest before he slumped over in defeat knowing a lost cause when he saw one. "Yes sir," he said as he followed behind his teacher and now was the last one out onto the field after everyone else had been patiently waiting, or in the case of Bakugo, angrilly tapping his foot.

"Finally, the quirkless loser gets here so we can start," Bakugo shouted as he stomped forward and took the ball from Aizawa.

"I need to explain the lesson to Midoriya," Aizawa started to say.

"That shit's only redeeming quality is he's not a moron, he can figure this out," Bakugo said as he hurled the ball with his quirk.

Koriand'r clenched her hands into fists, angry that Bakugo is continuing to make fun of Izuku for not having a quirk. "Please do not insult my Izuku, he is a nice boy and doesn't deserve it."

"Your Izuku," Mina questioned the orange-skinned girl who she was hoping to become good friends with.

"Yes, but Izuku is not just my Izuku, I have also," Koriand'r started to say before Izuku covered her mouth.

"Maybe now's not the time to explain how our relationship works Kori," Izuku nervously chuckled, hoping to avoid having everyone look at him strange for the next three years or however long he remained at U.A.

"Fine," Koriand'r said as she puffed up her cheeks. "But if you are going to be putting your hand on my mouth, then what can I put on your mouth?"

Mineta, in his infinite perversion was currently short-circuiting in line as he listened to the conversation his two classmates were having.

As the class moved to the next event, a simple fifty-meter dash, Izuku adjusted his waistband, maybe it wasn't entirely fair, but Eraserhead did only say he couldn't use the Cosmic Staff.

As Izuku lined up next to Katsuki, who was loving that he got to show up Deku in front of the entire class, he didn't notice that Izuku had pressed a button and a faint glow appeared over his skin.

"Begin," Aizawa called out as he rubbed his eyes, unsure if it was just a trick of the light or if Midoriya was actually glowing.

Surprising everyone Izuku managed to finish slightly ahead of Bakugo, due to the slight deceleration of his explosions each time he fired them and the lull in between, allowed Izuku's consistent pace to pass him by.

"Hrn," Aizawa grunted as he marked down the two student's times. "Faster than he looks," he said dismissively as he decided to wait to see what happened.

The various events continued on as Izuku did better and better, with the use of his Cosmic Converter Belt. He was so impressed with how it worked and how happy he was that Mei was able to help him complete it. Even if the end result was, a not insignificant change to his life.

Izuku put the finishing touches on the second Cosmic Staff, this time after getting to use it first hand he realized that he would have some issues when it came to control and with only a few more days until the new year to start at U.A. he knew he needed some extra input. Sending a text to Mei asking if she was free to come to his apartment to help him with a project.

It was seconds later when she eagerly replied stating she would be there in less than an hour. Nodding as he finished reading the text he decided to grab a shower and start making some snacks so that he and Mei could have something to eat while they worked in case they forgot to eat. He heard a knocking at the door and happily went to go and greet his guest. "Hello Mei," Izuku smiled at the excited mechanic.

"Hello Midoriya," Mei smirked as she walked past him carrying her large gearbox. "So what's the plan for today?"

"Well I realized that after the entrance exam, which I passed by the way," Izuku said proudly.

"Oh congratulations," Mei smiled as she was happy for her friend.

"But anyway," he said as he shut the door. "After the entrance exam I thought back on it, and realized I didn't have nearly as much control over the Cosmic Staff as I would have liked."

"So what's the plan, lower the power, build some kind of bracing system?" Mei inquired as she followed him to his room.

"Human enhancement," Izuku answered as he searched through his desk for something. "I can't just make the staff weaker or rely on a huge suit, that's going to ruin everything, but if I can make myself better, then I could handle it so much easier."

"How," Mei questioned. "You can't be talking about chemicals, or some kind of augmentation surgery, are you?"

"No, see I had this idea," he continued as he pulled out a notebook from a drawer. "I think, I can design a belt that will absorb Stellar Energy and then convert it a bio-aura for myself, that would reinforce my body."

"You absolute madlad," Mei gasped as she snatched the notebook. "Where do you get these ideas," she asked.

"Well," he scratched his cheek unsure how to tell her he got the idea from the stories about Kryptonians under yellow sun radiation.

"Izuku," Koriand'r called out. "I found your plate of finger foods," she said as she pushed open the door. "I do not know why they are called that, they are not made of fingers nor do they look, like, them," she trailed off as she saw the pink haired girl.

"Oh hey, I'm Mei Hatsume," Mei greeted as she extended a hand.

Koriand'r stood for a while before setting the platter onto Izuku's desk, she walked past Mei who looked a bit nervous at potentially offending the girl. "Kori," Izuku questioned before the princess lifted him off the floor and pinned him to the wall and stuck her tongue on his mouth. For a full minute Mei watched this strange new girl make out with her friend.

Finally she broke the kiss and set Izuku back down but also pulled him into her body. "This is my Izuku, do not be trying to take him from me," Koriand'r warned as she carefully let him go and then left the room.

"What was that," Mei said to a still lightheaded Izuku.

"My girlfriend," Izuku answered as regained his bearings. "She's never uh, done that before though."

"A bit protective isn't she," Mei whispered.

"She means well," Izuku said. "She got worried when I would go off with you to work on the Cosmic Staff."

"Oh," Mei said as she realized how that might have looked, with her boyfriend always running off with a strange girl. "I mean you told her that you were doing this to get into U.A. right?'

"Well, not exactly, at all," he responded. "I wanted it to be a surprise that I got in with her."

"Wow, and I thought I was a bit of an airhead," Mei said as she headed towards the door. "I'll be right back, stay here," she ordered.

"Hey," Mei called out to a pouting Koriand'r. "Can I talk to you for a moment?"

"You already are, so I do not see a point in you stopping now," Koriand'r said as she flipped through the channels.

"I'm not trying to take your boyfriend. I mean sure he's the nicest guy I've met and doesn't mind when I get a bit hands on," Mei chuckled. "But I wouldn't ever try to be the other woman."

"But you are another woman," Koriand'r said in confusion. "Unless you can turn into a man."

"No, I mean, I don't want to be some sidechick," Mei corrected.

"You are making less sense."

"I don't want to break you up," Mei groaned.

"I do not want to break anyone either."

"Why is this so hard," Mei sighed. "Look, Izuku is cute and smart, good with his hands and helps me stay focused and this is now a confession," Mei realized.

Koriand'r slowly rose from her seat. "You love my Izuku."

"No, yes, maybe," Mei panicked as she was not ready to confront her feelings for a boy at this time. But before she could do anything, Koriand'r had picked her up and carried her back to Izuku's room the entire time the pink-haired girl was struggling to escape the alien's strong grasp.

"Izuku, she is in love with you," Koriand'r stated firmly. "Now kiss her," she demanded.

"What?!" Izuku and Mei exclaimed at the same time.

"Yes, you have told me that love is important," Koriand'r said.

"But I love you Kori," Izuku tried to find an excuse to get out of the situation. "I mean," he furiously blushed as he hadn't said those words to Koriand'r before.

"Do you also love her," Koriand'r asked as she turned an equally blushing Mei around to face Izuku.

"Yes, no, maybe," Izuku quickly answered.

"That is good, she feels the same way so now you two must kiss," Koriand'r said as she pushed Mei towards Izuku.

"I uh," Mei stammered as she looked to the floor. "Hi," she chuckled.

"We-well, I do um, like you Mei," Izuku rubbed his arm.

"So do I, I just, this is weird," Mei whined.

Izuku laughed for a moment. "Tell me about it," Izuku agreed.

"Do hurry, my soaps will be on soon," Koriand'r said as she wanted to return to watch the commercials, something Inko has tried a few time to fruitlessly explain, which only caused her realize how silly it was for modern advertising to tell these stories in between other shows. Resulting in Koriand'r to assume the commercials were the shows, not helping the fact was that when explaining a soap opera to the young princess, an actual soap commercial came on during the break.

Finally Izuku worked up the courage to kiss Mei, albeit the kiss was not one of deep passion like Koriand'r's were, but it still conveyed his emotions to her. Slowly Mei started to return the kiss as she pulled Izuku closer to her.

"Yay, now we can all be girlfriends," Koriand'r happily said.

"That's not how that works," Izuku stammered as he looked at the two girls he now seemed to be in a complicated relationship with. "But, it's the thought that counts," he shrugged.

"So while kissing is nice," Mei coughed. "Something I really want to do more of, should we get to work," she questioned as she tried to not expose her blushing face.

"Yeah, in a couple hours we could have a prototype ready to test," Izuku happily said.

"Fantastic," Koriand'r said. "Then after all of that, we can eat and sleep together," she clapped her hands together quickly before exiting the room.

"Does she mean sleep or "sleep"," Mei airquoted.

"Sometimes, I'm not sure," Izuku rubbed the back of his head.

"Do I need to start kissing her too?" Mei asked having never been in a relationship before, nor one that was this different than what she was expecting.

"I mean, you can," Izuku chuckled as he tugged at his collar. "I don't want it to seem like I'm the only one allowed to kiss people."

"Cool, because uh," Mei responded. "She wears really high cut shirts," she looked at the doorway, the place that Koriand'r stood.

"Do you uh, have a muscle fetish," Izuku questioned.

"Maybe," Mei shrugged. "What I do know is that, her stomach is, very, distracting," Mei answered.

"Note to self," Izuku mused. "Get very fit for Mei," he mentally added to his list of things to do.

As Midoriya stopped smiling as he remembered the day he made the belt he was handed the ball by Koriand'r as she floated in line next to him.

While Izuku had surprised himself with how effective his new invention was at helping him keep up with students who had quirks, the class was astonished by Koriand'r's capabilities, her flight easily won her the long jump, her strength and stamina placing her very high in the rankings if not outright winning them. Her balance on the side-steps, left something to be desired but outside Mineta, no one really had abilities that benefited them in that task..

So Izuku calmly stepped into the circle to throw his baseball when Aizawa shouted at him. "Hey, no support gear."

"You only said no staff," Izuku countered.

"And is the staff giving you this strength?" Aizawa questioned, not really being much of a gearhead himself, he just knew the Cosmic Staff greatly enhanced Midoriya's capabilities, to what extent he did not know.

"No, that would be this," Izuku said as he raised his shirt up.

Aizawa groaned as he realized he had been beaten, as he did only say no to Izuku using his staff. Something he couldn't then go back and tell him to redo all the tests without the belt, well he could, but he really didn't want to do that. "Fine, just, throw the damn ball."

"Wait, he's been cheating this whole time?" Kirishima questioned. "Not manly."

"Technically, not cheating," Izuku replied as he threw the ball into the distance. "He never said you couldn't use things to help you with the tasks, as we saw her do just that," he said pointing to Momo who had been making objects to complete the tasks. "I just brought one with me is all."

"If you are so good at building stuff, why are you not in the support course," Mina asked.

"I want to be a hero not an engineer," Izuku shrugged at his simple answer.

"So Midoriya, what does this gadget do," Aizawa asked hoping it wouldn't explode.

"Well it like the Cosmic Staff converts stellar energy, in a smaller amount, into a bio-aura that enhances my strength, speed and durability," Izuku began to list off the benefits. "With this I should have an easier time controlling the staff's power output, which I also increased since the exam."

"Does it explode?" Aizawa asked.

"Would I be wearing it if it did?" Izuku asked incredulously.

"Do you want me to answer that honestly," Aizawa quirked an eyebrow.

"Fair enough," Izuku sighed, as the prototype did in fact, slightly, only a small amount, explode the first time they used it.

"Well almost all of you did well," Aizawa said as he presented the scores of the tests to the class, showing Mineta at the bottom of the ranks. "Unfortunately one of you must go home," Aizawa said firmly.

"Then send Deku home," Bakugo interrupted. "At least shrimpy here," he jabbed his finger at the saddened purple-haired boy who expected himself to be going home after only getting a single good score the entire test. "Has a quirk, so he might not be completely useless."

"God what a prick," Jirou scoffed as she turned away from the loud boy.

"He has a point," Kaminari responded. "I mean, if he's only here because of tools," he said pointing to Izuku. "Wouldn't anyone else with those same tools just do better."

"I don't know," Momo mused. "I've never heard of stellar energy before, and those tools look custom made."

"Then let's put it to a vote, we live in a democracy, of sorts," Aizawa shrugged. "These will be your classmates potentially for the next three years, you should have some say in who they are," he grinned maliciously at his students who flinched away from his smile. "Raise your hand if you think Midoriya," he gestured to Izuku to make sure everyone knew who they were voting for. "Should remain in the hero course, you can only vote once," Aizawa added on as he expected a few students to double vote so they didn't feel bad.

"Hmm," Aizawa hummed as he knew at least one person would vote for Izuku, being the Tamaranian Princess. However he had managed to garner quite a few other votes from the class, be it due to his score being higher, impressed by his ingenuity or not wanting to be seen as discriminating against a quirkless person. "That looks like more than half," he smirked.

Mineta shook nervously, as he was pretty sure that was more than ten votes in favor of Midoriya. Now he was certain he would be going home today. "But in the interest of fairness, raise your hand if you think Mineta should stay?"

Mineta closed his eyes and didn't even want to see the outcome of the vote. "Oh really, interesting, why did you raise your hand Midoriya, do you want to go home?" Aizawa said with a tone of amusement. Mineta quickly opened his eyes and looked at the student who he was in a way competing against, seemingly throwing away his chance.

"Because I don't think he should go, he didn't do anything wrong and we don't punish people for that," Izuku said firmly. "All of us here want to be heroes and I think everyone deserves the chance to be one."

"Hmm," Aizawa hummed as Mineta began to cross his fingers hopefully that maybe Midoriya's words would save him from expulsion. "Why don't I just expel the both of you then, save me a headache," the sadistic teacher laughed at his joke.

"That is not very nice. You are being most unkind," Koriand'r shouted, not enjoying the pressure being put on Izuku at the moment.

"Just having a little fun Princess," Aizawa raised his hands defensively. "They can both stay, but they're first on the chopping block if they can't keep up," he warned as he started to walk away. "Class dismissed."

The class heaved a sigh of relief when the teacher departed. "Oh man, he's so intense," Sero wheezed.

"What was that about Princess, does he know you," Mina inquired of the other girl.

"Oh that is because I am a princess," Koriand'r said.

"WHAT?!" Mina exclaimed as she had not been expecting that answer, startling the rest of the class.

"Yes, I am from Tamaran," Koriand'r started to explain to the other girl.

"Kori, maybe now's not the best time," Izuku mumbled as he quickly tried to get her to not reveal that she was an alien to the entire class.

"I've never heard of Tamaran before," Momo questioned.

"I would expect not, it is not from your planet," Koriand'r replied.

"So you mean to tell us, you're an alien?" Iida asked.

"Correct, Tamaran is in the star system Vega, it is relatively close, as we are only fourteen Galactic Sectors away," Kori started to explain before the class busted up laughing.

"Oh man, that, is exactly what I needed after this class," Kaminari doubled over in a fit. "Aliens, oh man, that is amazing, did you make that up just now or have you been preparing that for a while."

"Eyup," Izuku said quickly as he started to drag a confused alien princess away from the class. "Kori's great with jokes, she always keeps the mood light," he chuckled nervously. "Well it's been great, see you all tomorrow," he said as he pushed her into the main building.

"I do not like being hurried away Izuku," Kori puffed up indignantly.

"Sorry, its just, you can't go around telling everyone that you are an alien," Izuku quietly hissed as he walked through the empty halls to the locker rooms.

"But it is the truth," Koriand'r said in confusion.

"I know that, you know that, the teachers know that, the other people, if they knew that, I don't know how they would react, so maybe don't tell people until we are sure about that last part," Izuku said as he stepped into the boys locker room. "Get changed so we can go see mom later and tell her how our day went."

"Okay," Koriand'r said sullenly, not comfortable with having to lie about what she was. But she changed back into her school uniform nonetheless.

"Sir, should we be concerned about this young boys capabilities and the connection he has with the princess," Aizawa asked as he sipped his juice.

Nezu spun around in his chair with a smile on his face. "Nope, eventually others will learn about Ms. Koriand'r and there's nothing we can do about it, as for them dating," Nezu shrugged. "If it progresses far enough we may learn if human and Tamaranian dna is compatible."

"Sir that's, vulgar," Aizawa scoffed.

"Maybe, but it's still important to know," Nezu replied as he spun his chair even faster.
