So, based on the latest stream of Soup Can, there are some things I'd like to address. 1. Hansen discarded his claymore. I wrote very clearly in the last chapter that he still had it, so that's a problem. I'm deciding right now that Hansen was told to bring that along to hand off to the Support Department as a reference for a new sword they'll make for him. Which means he will not have a sword in these battle trials.

2. Aaron is not going to be at every session from now on, so Gale is just a background character in the actual campaign. However, I'm still going to write him like a main character for the purposes of this fanfic.

"I WANT TO GO FIRST!" Class 1-A was standing at the entrance of Grounds E and they had all changed into their hero costumes, except for the new kids. Their costumes were still in the works, so they had to settle for the UA gym uniforms. The lone exception was Guy, who was wearing his gadget suit as his official hero costume. As soon as the class had gathered, and All Might got ready to explain the objectives of these trials, Hansen had (predictably) shouted at him to let him go first.

"Ah, an eager one I see! Very well, Young Hansen! Let's see who your partner and enemies will-"

"I want to fight you." This statement alone got All Might and the rest of class, besides the Soup Can kids of course, to do a double take. All Might began to sweat at the intensity of Hansen's glare. "Uh, perhaps another time..." All Might replied, scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

"Don't you remember what happened last time you fought a Pro?" Ernis asked in exasperation, to which Hansen switched to glaring at him.

"I did damage!"

"You lost an eye!"

The UA students just stared at this exchange, having a hard time believing what they were hearing from their peers. Some, like Kaminari, figured they were just bluffing to make themselves sound tougher and just rolled their eyes. All Might took this chance while Hansen was distracted to reach into the box and pull out the names of 3 students. "Your partner will be Momo Yaoyorozu, and your opponents will be Fumikage Tokoyami & Eijiro Kirishima!" (You guys didn't think you were going to get Hansen Vs. Bakugo right off the bat, did you?) Momo sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose, while Kirishima grinned and Tokoyami gave a single nod.

This announcement also got Hansen's attention as he looked away from Ernis and started to protest, but All Might didn't give him the chance, "Kirishima and Tokoyami will be the villains. You have 10 minutes to hide somewhere on this block. After 10 minutes, Hansen and Yaoyorozu will be allowed to scour the block for you. The villains will be given a location that they need to reach. If the heroes find and apprehend the villains, they win! If the villains take down the heroes or at least one of them reach their destination, they win! So, your 10 minutes starts... NOW!"

As soon as All Might was finished and handed ear pieces to the two boys, both Kirishima and Tokoyami ran down the street. Hansen started forward, whether to attack All Might or pursue the other students was unknown, but then Tor wrapped him in a headlock and began pulling him away. "C'mon best friend Flamberge, you can't cheat in Hide-and-Seek! Now start counting while they hide!"

"Tor! Let me go! AND STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Hansen shouted, struggling against the taller boy's headlock. He tried to activate his Quirk but went pale when nothing happened. Unbeknownst to Hansen, Tor's headlock was covering up the vents(?) on his neck where the fire spawned from and his grip was so strong it was cutting off any air from reaching them. So, Hansen was left to try and remove himself from Tor on his own strength, but in this position, Tor had the upper hand as the he dragged the still struggling teen away to let the others hide, much to the amusement of everyone else present.

10 minutes passed and despite Momo's best attempts, she and Hansen had no plan. Honestly, talking to the boy in general had been all but impossible as he had still been shouting at Tor. The other new kids had confirmed that if Hansen was released at any point before the time limit, he would shoot off to find fight the villain team. And true to their word, as soon Tor let Hansen out of the headlock, he elbowed the taller boy in the gut, activated his fire wings, and flew off to find them, leaving Momo to run after him as All Might led the rest of the class to a place to safely watch the battle trial.

Hansen flew all throughout the block, looking all around for either of the boys while shouting, "Get out here and fight me!" Momo eventually caught up with him and shouted up to him, but Hansen barely noticed. He was too busy looking for the fight he felt he was promised.

Hansen continued circling, peering inside the buildings, until he caught sight of something red ducking away from a first-floor window of an apartment building. Briefly remembering that one of his opponents had red hair, he shot towards the window and breakneck speeds and plowed straight through it. As soon he landed, he whipped around to see Kirishima, fully hardened, taking a swing at him. Hansen managed to block the punch, though he was pushed back ever so slightly, and grinned as his wings wrapped around him like a mantle. It caused Kirishima to move back, but Hansen wouldn't let him escape as he wrapped flames around his hand in flames and managed to punch his opponent square in the gut. He grit his teeth, since punching him had felt like punching stone, and Kirishima was pushed back until his back hit the wall. While the punch hadn't hurt all that much, there was still a burn mark in the shape of Hansen's fist on his stomach. Kirishima smiled at him and he said, "You hit pretty hard."

"So do you!" Hansen replied, a grin on his face as their fight quickly devolved into an absolute slug fest. Hansen's fist continually slammed into Kirishima over, and over, and over again. After just 6 punches, his hands were getting bloody from punching what was essentially rock, but that blood quickly joined his mantle. Even as Kirishima struck back at him, Hansen didn't budge, and the red-haired boy was beginning to doubt his chances in this fight. Honestly, even the strikes to his face just seemed to fuel whatever blood frenzy Hansen had entered.

Meanwhile, in the monitoring room, the class was staring at Hansen's fight with shock and awe, and perhaps a bit fear from a few at his behavior. Sero looked over at Ernis, who was standing next to him, and asked "Is he, uh, alright in the head?"

Ernis shrugged in response and said, "We'd like to think so, but we're not sure. He could very well just be a maniac." This put none of his new classmates at ease as they watched their peers continue to duke it out.

Midoriya held his hand up to his chin as he began to mumble to himself, as he began to analyze the situation out loud. "Kirishima's Quirk is ideal for dealing with bruisers like Hansen. However, the main difference between Hansen and your typical melee focused fighter is his fire, which still hurts Kirishima since it's still technically his skin, even in its hardened state. Not to mention that as Hansen continues to hit Kirishima, it'll slowly wear down his Quirk to the point where he'll feel every punch Hansen throws. It also doesn't seem like Hansen is really registering the pain he feels from hitting Kirishima, but it doesn't look like that's any kind of effect from his Quirk. Does he just not register pain or something, or is it possible he-"

He was cut off and as Uraraka nudged his shoulder. "Uh, Deku..."

He blinked as he came out of his ramblings and rubbed the back of his head, embarrassed, and apologized for his ramblings. Guy, had heard some of his ramblings but could only make out the last bits, so he threw in his two cents, "No, that's all Hansen. Like Ernis was saying earlier, he fought a Pro and got messed up pretty bad. I'm sure Kirishima is doing damage, but I doubt it compares to what Hansen's already gone through."

"But you said he lost an eye?" Ashido asked them, remembering what they had been talking about earlier.

"Yep. The only reason he's got it back was..." Guy, as well as the rest of the group, shuddered as they remembered their scary scorpion nurse. "was because the nurse's Quirk was really powerful back at Soup Can Academy. It doesn't really matter anymore though."

"Your old nurse?" Midoriya asked, trying to remember all the details from the news report he saw. "Do you mean that woman, Gemetz-"

"It doesn't really matter!" all the Soup Can kids present shouted, each with their own thousand-yard stare. However, before anyone could ask any follow up questions, their attention was drawn back to the screen as one of Hansen's punches finally did more than just burn damage.

As Hansen struck Kirishima across the face, he noticed that it didn't feel like punching stone anymore. He smirked and said, "Looks like your running out of steam! You giving up?"

"I can keep going!" he shouted and took a big swing at Hansen, but he quickly side stepped the punch and grabbed his wrist. Using Kirishima's momentum, Hansen easily flipped the red-haired boy in one quick motion. He groaned in a daze, the pain from all his burns, as well as the hits to the head he had taken, all catching up with him.

"Doesn't look like it. Eh, I'll be back to get you later. I'm gonna go find the bird boy," Hansen told him, his mantle shifting back to wings as he flew out of the window he had broken through to find another fight.

He didn't have to look far, though, since the aforementioned bird boy was already engaged in combat with his partner. Unfortunately, it looks like Tokoyami had the upper hand with his Quirk. Dark Shadow was keeping Momo at a distance and wasn't giving her time to create anything other than simple items. She had a sword and shield and while she was holding her ground, she couldn't seem to get any closer.

Both Tokoyami and Yaoyorozu were deeply focused on their struggle, until they heard shouting. Shouting that was slowly getting louder. The two looked over, and Tokoyami immediately had Dark Shadow change targets, after shoving Momo back, to their berserker of a classmate that was rocketing towards him. Hansen, his Quirk still in wing mode, as he spun in the air and kicked at the oncoming enemy.

Dark Shadow moved to counter with a claw swipe, but he was far too weak from being in broad daylight to sufficiently stop Hansen's spin kick. Instead, he went tumbling towards the ground with Hansen in hot pursuit. The Quirk reminded him a lot of Ben's back at the academy, if not a whole lot weaker in comparison. Hansen also put together that, like Ben, if he took out the user the Quirk would deactivate, which wouldn't make for a good fight in his opinion.

As the Quirk creature hit the ground and left cracks in the pavement, Hansen landed on top of it, driving it further into the pavement. He jumped off it and had his Quirk go into mantle mode as he kicked Dark Shadow out of the pavement and a couple of meters away. "Guess not all Guardians are created equally, huh?" Hansen asked it as he moved towards it.

With the helpful (and unintentional) distraction created by Hansen, Momo regained her footing and moved in on her classmate. She discarded her sword and shield and created a crook that she held with both hands. She used the hook on the end of the staff to sweep Tokoyami's legs out from under him before pulling out a pair of handcuffs from her body as well. She swiftly clamped them on both his arms, officially apprehending him.

"And with that, team Hansen and Yaoyorozu are the winner!" All Might's voiced echoed around the block, coming from several speakers placed on buildings around them. "Now, would the medical bots please escort Young Kirishima to the nurse's office? I believe he is in need of some medical attention."

Hansen was just raising up his fist when Dark Shadow retracted back into its master, who accepted his defeat and stopped struggling. "Hey, I wasn't done yet! He still had some fight in him!" he complained to his partner.

"The objective wasn't to fight them, it's to stop them and that's what I did," Momo told him, removing the cuffs from Tokoyami's wrists as she spotted some small robots carrying a cot enter the building Hansen had broken into earlier in the corner of her eye.

Hansen rolled his eyes and said, "Fine, whatever. Just hurry up and bring out the next team, c'mon."

"Your trial is over, Young Hansen. And you did well!... even if you went a little overboard. One of you friends will be taking their test next, so you may return to the monitoring room to observe it," All Might replied over the loud speaker. Upon hearing that, Hansen groaned in irritation. He angrily shoved his hands in his pocket, his mantle still burning around him, as he followed after Yaoyorozu and Tokoyami, who were keeping a good distance ahead of him.

And that it for this chapter! It took longer to get out than I would have liked, but that's just the way it goes. I hope you enjoyed it, and feel free to leave a review. Mainly because I have a question for any readers out there who would like to reply! I'm going to be choosing a main theme and a battle theme for each of our main characters, and I'd like your input! Here's what I got so far and if it's got ?, leave a review or tweet me a suggestion:

Hansen:

Main Theme – What's Up Danger from Into the Spider-Verse

(I tried to avoid getting any song that directly references fire, because I felt like that would be too obvious. Also, the name alone feels very Hansen. He's not afraid to throw himself in a dangerous situation. Hesitation is Infectious after all.)

Battle Theme – The Battle is to the Strong / Berserker Lancelot's Theme from Fate/Zero

(Once again, the name alone relates to Hansen's love for fighting. He's always looking to pick a fight with the strongest guy in the room. That, and Tor is the Saber to his Lancelot if Tor aggravates him enough.)

Tor:

Main Theme – Avenger's Suite / The Avengers Theme from the movies

(Honestly, it's the only appropriate song for Tor's main theme.)

Battle Theme - ?

Guy:

Main Theme – Pacific Rim's Main Theme

(I don't know why I picked this out for Guy. I guess it just feels very techy and still epic, so I thought it would be good for him. It's open to change if anyone's got a better idea.)

Battle Theme - ?

Briny:

Ernis:
