Smoke and Mirrors

Chapter 4- Bite me!!

A year ago

In an unknown location beneath the ground lies a huge base of operations which focus on illegal human experimentation and biological enhancement. Midoriya Hisashi, the lead scientist was task by his superior to develop a fully conscious corpse that can be a vessel for multiple quirks without it going on a mindless rampage or losing any and all ability to move.

It was called "Project High-end"

"Doctor, we are going to be conducting tests to subject 24 in 5 minutes, I suggest you come and observe" Doctor Garaki his assistant in the project was holding a compiled file of what is reffered to as nomus. He never really agreed with the concept of abducting dead bodies and modifying them to what Garaki called "perfection" or rather mutilating them to near unrecognizable beings in Hisashi's words.

Suddenly a pair of footsteps approach making them turn to see his wife and son, Midoriya Inko and Midoriya Izuku, both wearing lab coats and near blank expressions.

They never really approved of Hisashi's profession.

Behind them stood a man in black eyes equally if not more blank with a glimmer of baleful intent.

"Papa, I need to use one of your computers for my online studies.. if you'd allow me to" Izuku stated at the ground not looking at him in the eyes or even at him at all. It hurts his heart knowing he did this.

"You can have it son, they're at station three just in front of the testing area" his son nodded, face turning to the destination, and just as they walk away, Inko casts him a brief glance before leaving as well.

"Doctor Hisashi, tell me your progress" his superior commanded albeit with a hint of distaste, "it's been going well sir, the high end nomus are slowly showing a bit more intellect in doing simple tasks such as carrying, throwing and close combat, though they are still lacking the ability to move on its own without constant commands" he finished his report, Garaki rolling his eyes.

His boss wasn't impressed "I expected a lot from you Hisashi, remember if you fail this, or proved to be unsatisfactory, know that you won't be seeing your family again" without even a second the testing area exploded and a loud roar broke through the halls.

"Izuku! Inko!" And Hisashi ran.

Practical exam.

Such an important part for those who wish to be heroes. One whose worthy enough to pass with flying colors shall be considered with high approval to enter the best of the best of schools, UA. And with such importance to enter said school, comes with such pressure. Oh pressure, accompanied with anxiety enough to make you piss your pants -mineta-. What an image of that is enough to make you wheeze, but its not the case for Present mic. Since the contenders were too focused and scared to reply.

"Alright, everybody say yeah!" Silent... Yup too focused and scared to reply. Well that's sad.

"Well onto the orientation then!" He began to explain the basics, from villain points to each assigned areas that each contender will attend to. "Is there any questions?" Then a hand was robotically raised and stood up a man with blue hair.

"There are four kinds of robots that are presented in the pamphlet and you only mentioned three, such error is unacceptable for a prestigious school!", Present mic was gonna explain when he heard wooden slippers tap against glassy tiles echoing through the auditorium. All eyes were directed to a teen probably between ages 12 to 14 wearing kimono adorned with different shades of grey and a white porcelain like kitsune mask hiding his face. The most distinguishing feature about him was his white sickly hair that seems to outstand silk threads. He slowly waves to Present mic as he head towards him.
