Heroes didn't exist, that was what Shizumi Chikara had believed. Heroes were simply beings working for money, fame, and popularity. Heroes were meant to be people that saved others, spread hope, and protect humanity, however, it had all failed her...

THE PENCIL IN HER HAND GLIDED AGAINST THE PAPER, leaving marks. Various details and designs had been slid across the sketchbook. Not good enough, she thought. As if a bulb had flashed above her head, she thought of an idea and proceeded to draw it on the paper, making a few pockets and gloves on the figure's hands. She continued designing her Hero Costume which the school she was accepted in, U.A, had requested.
Of course, getting into this school was not easy. Last week, she had taken the Entrance Exam with a total of 43 points and was accepted into the prestigious school she had dreamt of attending since she was a youth with flying colors, and was now designing her Hero Costume.
Until now, she had designed a short jacket accompanied by a hoodie, together with big pockets over the chest area, and underneath, she was wearing a full-sleeved, tight black shirt. She drew auburn-colored gloves with metal plates over the knuckle area. For the bottom, there were shorts that went above the knees, with a black belt and big pockets over the end. Again, there were tight black leggings that reached her auburn boots. Currently, she was trying to add more designs to her suit, and as if on cue, her cat jumped up on her study table and started to distract her.
Looking at her cat while puffing her baby cheeks, she put her pencil down and started to caress her cat, Suga. She stroked the cat's grey fluffy and thick fur smoothly. It's her dinner time, she thought. She got up and headed to the kitchen to signal her cat that it was dinner time, to which Suga had followed. She took her cat's bowl, filled it with cat food, and put it down for her cat to feast on it. Oh yeah, I have to fill the U.A Student Form, she thought as she went out of her apartment and reached her hand in towards the mailbox. As she searched inside it, she soon made contact with the smooth paper and pulled it out.
She made her way back in and headed towards her room while glancing at her cat happily eating her food. She placed the envelope on her wooden study table and sat on her chair. She ripped open the envelope and saw a form that asked for her personal information. She read the form and grabbed a black ink pen from her pencil stand and began to fill in the form.
Name: Shizumi Chikara
Age: 15
Birthdate: 14th December
As she filled out her form, she came to the part where it asked her for a basic overview of her quirk. She began dribbling down the needed information.
Quirk: Energy
Quirk Information: I have been born with special life energy radiating within me. I use this energy and make it to use by using refined energy control and concentration to enhance my strength to monstrous levels. This is done by storing energy into my hands or feet and releasing it onto the target with pinpoint timing. With this strength, I can decimate the ground or even kill opponents with a single strike. The quirk can go further and make it to healing use, by applying my hand to the afflicted or wounded part of the body and sending energy into it, accelerating the body's natural healing abilities. Although its most obvious use is as a way of treating external wounds, it can also be used for internal illnesses. It can heal holes, stabs, cuts, and illnesses, or either make the body faster in recovering. However, my energy relies heavily on my stamina, meaning if I do not have enough stamina, my quirk would deactivate and I would feel really tired and easily doze off, despite the situation.
After writing down her quirk information, she arrived at the part where it asked if she had any health problems. On this, her bangs began to shadow her heterochromatic eyes, while she mentally gathered up the courage to write down her problem. She slowly placed the tip of the pen on the line and wrote:
Health Problem: I cannot speak.
