It's been a depressing day today.

That aside, I have absolutely no flipping idea how to write out the whole villain invasion thing. Anyone with tips, suggestions and such- please help. I really suck at fighting scenes. And I really, really want this to be good since I sort of want one or two of Ichigo's shinagami friends to make an appearance.


Shouta let out a low whistle of appreciation as he watched Ichigo tear into Bakago like she was demon possessed. She really hadn't lied when she said that she was going to make the boy cry like a little bitch. The moment that her hand closed around his groin- she fucking had him whimpering.

His expression was one of horror, dread, and so very much fear that it would have simply been awesome if he had wet himself right then and there in front of god and everyone. However since this was supposed to be a lesson for everyone, Ichigo had merely used her grip on his groin to prove a point to the other kids before moving on.

Lesson one was perhaps one of the most important lessons that she could have taught anybody.

Being unpredictable was a huge part of being able to fight well. If you're opponent could read you and your moves- then you might as well give up right then. You were only delaying your inevitable defeat.

Another huge part of the student's hero training was hand to hand combat since it was a very bad idea to just solely rely on one's quirk in a fight.

The only reason that they were focusing more on the quirk stuff right now was because there were a lot of kids at the camp who've yet to fully master their quirks, and the extra training was needed to help them along.

The fact that his not-daughter could not only incorporate this into her lesson, and drive her point home while simultaneously pummeling the crap out of Bakago was more than a little bit impressive to him. It was apparently impressive to Vlad, and the others too.

Ichigo was turning out to be a very talented young lady for a multitude of reasons. One of which was why he found himself filming her teaching the others with his cell phone. He'd send the video to Toshi and principal Nemu later to see what they thought.

Because even if she decided not to attend UA as a student, then maybe she could get a job there as a part time teacher. It certainly couldn't hurt anything. Right?

The lesson continued for another thirty minutes, and by the end of it- even he could tell that she was beginning to hold herself back since Bakago already likely had a concussion, several missing teeth, a bloody nose and another black eye. And that was just what she had done to him above the belt. He shuddered to even think on how much the boy was hurting below it.

That groin grab had to have hurt him significantly considering how petrified he'd been.

Finally Ichigo decided that enough was enough, and grabbed the blond and slipped an arm around his torso and began to help him over to Shouta and the other teachers. Once there, Mandaly and Ragdoll both grabbed the first aid kit and started to do what they could to fix him up as Ichigo then turned to everyone and told them that class was over.

The other teachers each had the kids pair off in groups of six. Three boys and three girls to practice some of the moves that they saw Ichigo execute on Bakago and then led their little groups off to practice.

"How's he looking?" Ichigo asked Ragdoll curiously.

"Well...not good. He's got a concussion, and might have a broken nose, he's also missing four back teeth and both of his eyes are swollen shut. He's very badly bruised... And these injuries could take weeks to heal- Was this what you were aiming for?"

"More or less," Ichigo said as she gently nudged the woman aside and dropped down to her knees in front of the blond. "Oi, blondy. Did you learn anything from this? Be honest."

He flipped her off. And Ichigo snorted and muttered something about annoying brats. And then reached out and pushed some of her regeneration ability into him, and sighed because this seemed to now be a more common occurrence than she had first wanted.

After all, it wasn't a big thing to heal one or two people here or there. But do it too much, too often and you wind up exhausting yourself.

Bakago held himself strangely still until his face was back to the way it was before and then jumped up, tearing himself away from her. He didn't say anything. No, thank you for fixing me up. No, what the fuck was that shit about? Nothing.

He just looked at her very oddly and then glanced at her guardian and told him that he wanted to go practice the moves that she'd demonstrated on him. So...he defiantly learned something. She just wasn't sure it boded very well for her.

But no matter.

If the time ever came where he decided to try some of her own techniques on her- he'd be in for a very painful lesson. Probably even more so than he was earlier.

Once he got permission to leave, he did. Though he kept looking at her over one of his shoulders in an almost anxious manner before finally disappearing.

"You did good kid. I think he's learned a valuable lesson." Shouta said as he reached out and laid a hand on top of her head to ruffle her hair.

"Either that or his already planning something even more stupid." Ichigo deadpanned.

Shouta shrugged despite knowing that she probably had a point there. Bakago was insanely stubborn and could be an utter pain in the ass even when he was being taught something important. Shouta had no doubt that the boy was already holding a grudge. But he also firmly believed that after the beating that Ichigo had just finished giving him, he wasn't in that much of a hurry to get on her bad side again.

Much less anyone else's.

After all, Midoiya had given him one hell of a shiner. Which was something that Shouta owed the boy for no matter how much he may hate to admit it.

"I was thinking..." He finally said as he studied her for a moment or so. "I think I overheard some of the students saying that they wanted to do a test of courage sometime later tonight-" Ichigo looked at him with a small frown. "And I have to teach some night classes tonight and stuff anyway. So why don't you, ya know? Mingle? Maybe do the test of courage with the others and just...have fun."

"You're really awkward at this."

"Yeah, I am." He said with a depressed sounding sigh.

"But it isn't a bad idea," She said with a shrug, noting the instant way that he perked up a little bit upon hearing her words. "I've never done a test of courage before."

"It'll probably be fun."

"Is that what you really think you poor, poor delusional man?" Ichigo teased him before sobering up some and adding. "I'm going to be stuck in pitch black woods with a bunch of overly enthusiastic kids making fools of themselves. You'll be lucky if someone simply get's injured while trying to run away from some non-existent boogey-man or monster."

"When you say it like that...maybe I should tell the kids to simply stick close to camp."

"And deal with a bunch of angry kids playing with literal fire. Are you crazy?"

"No. But I also think that this is an argument that I'm not going to win." Shouta said as a perplexed look crossed his face. As if the very fact that he wasn't going to beat her at word sparring utterly baffled him.

Ichigo's lips quirked up a tad in amusement as she said, "Well you're right. But I think it's cute that you thought you'd win."

He grunted and muttered, "You're a weird kid." Ichigo merely shrugged her shoulders again knowing that he wasn't wrong. As he asked, "So...test of courage?"

"Yeah sure. Why not?" Maybe she could turn the test of courage into a training exercise and have some fun scaring the kids in her hollow form. God knew that her inner hollow hadn't been able to come out and play in a while, and was probably dying to have a little bit of freedom and fun.

As long as she made it clear that it couldn't actually attack and hurt anyone, then maybe they could both have some fun. It was certainly worth a shot. Right?
