CHAPTER START---

"What are you doing?" Horizon asks as he floats down to the street, still sitting on his board.

He sees Cellophane leaning against the wall trying to catch his breath.

"What the hell man!?"

"What, not like you died, I mean..." Horizon looks up, seeing the long strip of tape attached to his building. "Maybe next time use the feature that lets you retract most of the tape so you don't make a mess...and don't catch yourself so close to the ground."

"Maybe don't throw people off buildings!"

Horizon sighs and looks around, seeing the early morning traffic about to start picking up. He floats over and holds Cellophane's shoulder.

SHAMBLES!

They both appear back on the roof, at the very edge, swapped with nothing as he's already spent weeks in Minato Tokyo getting attuned to it.

"Woah," Cellophane jumps back, away from the edge, and takes off his visor. "Why'd you bring us back here?" Sero asks.

"Because now you know you can do it, so I shouldn't have to push you."

"Well, I guess."

"Not a guess, a fact," Horizon says. "Listen, if we were in UA you wouldn't have had any issues doing this. But you're hesitant because we aren't in UA where you feel safe doing risky things to train."

Sero thinks about it for a second, "well, yeah."

"It's a natural human adaptation. Take risks in places with a safety net, and avoid risks in new places like this. But you're going to be a Pro Hero. Your job is literally to run toward danger so others don't have to."

"Right," Sero nods, slowly walking toward the edge of the building. "So I should just get over my fears, right?"

"No, actually, the fear of falling is the only one humans cannot adapt to overcome. It's evolutionary in our very being, but we just learn to cope with it better over time."

"Not the pep talk I wanted," Sero puts on his visor.

"But...as a man, and as a Pro Hero. You cannot show that fear. Your duty is to be the rock for others to lean on, to be the one stable and dependable part of their life. Accept your fears but get the job done anyway, without the safety net."

"And if I fall?" Cellophane asks.

"You wouldn't be paid so well if there wasn't risk, besides, you want my life right?"

"Huh, what do you mean?"

"C'mon, I bought a skyscraper to live in and eventually set up my office, spent the night with basically a sexy runway model. I've got influence and power and anything people could want, if you want all of this...then train hard enough that you can leap without needing a net."

"Right," Cellophane nods. "Just one step forward," he says while looking at the street below.

"Just gotta man up and do it, now stop being a pussy or I'll push you off again..."

Taking a deep breath, Cellophane closes his eyes, and just leans forward.

He's instantly falling head first, hundreds of meters to the streets below.

But most importantly, all of his own volition.

Feeling his body become weightless, as the fear crescendos within him, surpassing a point where he could even track it.

Causing his mind and body to go numb to it.

His eyes snap open, seeing the street only 200m below him.

His right arm whips to the side and he fires out a strip of tape, still not used to aiming with his wrists rather than his elbows, but he hits his mark.

With this line stuck to the side of Horizon's building he swings in a wide arc, then with another flick of his wrist the end of the tape rips, a meter from where it's attached to the building, and is reeled back into his suit.

Cellophane's ecstatic laugh rings through the streets as he swings between buildings. Finally feeling his dreams becoming a reality.

He spends so much of his time training in UA, but nothing has ever felt as good as this. Using his Quirk and wearing his Hero Costume in public, with all the people on the streets below watching.

This is the man he always wanted to be.

The man he always wanted his dad to see him become...

"---Are you done with the victory lap?" Horizon interrupts his thoughts, speaking through their comms into his visor.

"Hng," Cellophane loses focus for just a second, pulling a bit too tight on his tape and nearly slamming through the window of a building.

Luckily he rolls in mid-air and lands on all fours against the glass, and accidentally triggers his new boots to run tape to his soles.

Sticking his feet to the glass.

Feeling himself about to fall back he shoots a line forward as if he were crawling on the wall, much to the shock of the man who was sweeping the floors of what seems to be a office.

"Uh...I'm stuck to the wall, I think it's my boots," Cellophane says while giving the man a polite wave.

"Did you not read the manual?"

"I thought they were regular boots man."

"It's Mei, nothing is normal after she works on it...just hang in there I'll get the book..."

"Not funny."

"Just try to stick it out."

Cellophane gives an annoyed groan, not exactly the start to his Hero Career than he was expecting...

Minutes later they're up on another rooftop, Horizon still sitting on his Hoverboard while Cellophane is re-reading the manual.

"You know you could have just warped me off the wall."

"Yeah, but then you wouldn't have learned anything."

"Mmm, that's fair I guess," Cellophane closes the manual and hands it over to Horizon.

He holds it, warps away, then warps back without it, leaving it back in Sero's room. "All good now?"

"Yeah, I just missed one small section about the boots."

"What about it?"

"Apparently she did that so I could run up walls," Cellophane shrugs.

"Well you did say you like that guy from those old comics."

"Yeah but he's got super strength, I don't, so I can't exactly stand parallel to the floor with just my feet stuck to a wall."

"Yeah well Endeavor and Bakugo don't have Super Strength but they can get hit through concrete and Endeavor can catch falling cars, so..."

"What, you think I can get Super Strength?" Cellophane was confused by this idea, the though, like with most people, never occurred to him.

"Most humans have the genetic potential for some level of enhanced physicality, its the basis of what makes us so malleable that Quirks didn't instantly cause the first people that got it to explode. Without it the Quirk Singularity Theory would be real...we're just really hard to kill."

"Ohh, I never really thought about it like that before, how do you know this anyway?"

Horizon just slowly turns to look at Cellophane, "did you forget that I'm a top Quirk Specialist and doctor?"

"Honestly man, sometimes you're such a dick that I forget you actually have so many jobs to help people," Cellophane shrugs.

"Whatever, let's just get you some practice..."

---4 PM, Minato Tokyo...

"You should see them now," Horizon's voice says to Cellophane as he swings through the city. And as he rounds the corner, he sees his target.

A blue pickup truck with two men inside, wanted for double homicide, and currently being chased by police cars.

"Guns?"

"No," Horizon says. "And they've got useless Quirks, this should be easy, just stop the car."

"Ok, Cellophane time!"

"That's an awful catchphrase."

"I'm working on it!" he yells while swinging in, taking a hard angle down a narrow alleyway to cut off the cars' route.

With a loud clang, his boots land on the roof of the car and he sticks to it, "pull over!"

One of the men leans out the window, looking back at Cellophane, "who the hell are you?" the man asks while taking out a knife to stab him, swinging and barely missing his leg.

"I'll take that as a no!" Cellophane shoots a line of tape and wraps it around the man's torso before shooting the other end at a streetlight they pass under.

The force rips him out of the car, leaving him hanging from the light.

"All right man, you're buddy is hanging out so how about you just pull over and end this," Cellophane says, and the man responds by speeding up even more, aiming for a street that's quickly being deserting as this chaos comes their way.

"Fine then, be like that, Strap Down!" Cellophane fires 6 lines of tape, 3 from each arm, while doing a perfect backflip off the car.

As he's in mid-air the lines connect to the back of the truck, specifically the axis.

With a command to his suit, sent via a simple gesture, the lines lock into place allowing him to shoot one to a nearby building, pulling himself toward it.

'I hope I gave it enough slack...' he thinks as he aligns himself parallel to the floor, feet on the wall of a nearby building.

This way its as if he's on the edge of a cliff trying to stop the truck from falling off the side.

And as the truck pulls, the lines snap tight. And what would usually end in either the tape breaking, or his body buckling and then being squashed flat by the force of the truck.

Ends with the rear axis being completely torn off, allowing the police to catch up.

After training with Horizon and his new diet, the strength of his tape is many magnitudes stronger than ever before.

And with his new suit built to take a massive about of weight pressing down on it, all the joints and reinforced pieces locked together the moment the force was applied to pull him down, making it into one solid piece of metal effectively.

The concrete beneath his feet cracked and shook instead of his body feeling anything, while the truck was completely ruined.

Finally, he felt like he had a good opportunity to make his grand debut as Cellophane.

All day they've been working and only a few pictures of him have been taken, but now, this was his chance.

But as he got off the wall and reeled in his lines, the moment he takes a step toward the police...

SHAMBLES

He appears on a rooftop beside Horizon...
