Chapter 8 – Clash with Titans.
Day two at school came around with an easy start. Unlike their unexpected quirk apprehension test yesterday, the homeroom teacher of Class 1-A had given them a very mundane task.
"For the next three years, you will be working with each other." Aizawa-sensei announce, not bothering to get out of his sleeping bag. "So go ahead and familiarize yourself with your classmates, tell them your name, your quirk, your likes, dislikes or whatever you want to share."
"Sir!" Iida raises his hand with enthusiastic fervor. "How should we go in order?"
"Figure it out yourselves." The teacher grunted with his eyes close. "I don't care."
Izuku almost sweat drop at the shabby teacher. Aizawa-sensei really came off as an off putting and unassuming individual, not an attitude you'd expect to a teacher. It was quite amusing to the green haired teen that their class tried to carry on despite how fazed they are by how their teacher pretended to doze off as they started introducing themselves one at a time.
And it was uncomfortable at the same time since he knows exactly how their teacher subtly observes the class, gauging their personality, behavior and how they react around their peers. Every passing second, as one student sit down to give room for another, the green haired teen felt little more nervous as his turn draws near.
How should he act? How should he carry himself?
The way most of his classmates carried themselves was too lax, too carefree and open when they spoke about themselves. They were too… untrained.
While Izuku occasionally go outside and blend in with civilians, he wasn't sure how he would look like under the watchful eyes of a pro hero. It might be inevitable but the green haired teen wanted to keep his secret as long as possible.
"Hello," This train of thought came to halt when the girl with white and red hair called out in a soft and polite tone. "I'm Fuyumi Todoroki and I call my quirk Haze. It allows me to generate small amount of frost and fire simultaneously which often results moistures suspending in air."
"Haze huh," Izuku muttered with interest, thinking of how Todoroki presented herself. She had this dignified air around her along with pretty looks even though she acts reserve but on guard. In a way, she carried herself like how Momo carried herself, which was not surprising at all since she was Endeavor's daughter.
Izuku sighs when the girl bowed and went back to her seat. He was worrying too much over a simple thing.
"Let's just get over this with." Katsuki practically growled when his turn came next. He struts in front of the class with swagger. "Listen up extras!" The explosive blond grinned with overflowing confidence, effectively riling up almost everyone with his audacity. "The name's Katsuki Bakugo and all you need to know is I'll be the strongest hero!"
"He's very assertive." Kirishima, for some reason was crying. "Really manly, 10/10."
"That's no way to address your peers Bakugo!" Iida berated in disapproval.
Izuku chuckled lightly.
"Bakahatsu…" Kyoka said. Somehow, her quiet voice was heard despite the indignant slurs of their classmates. It spoke volumes how scary the girl can be when everyone went quiet, watching a red faced girl sending a death glare at a… half naked Katsuki.
Izuku blinked.
Katsuki blinked.
Even Aizawa-sensei stopped pretending to sleep and blinked.
The entire Class 1-A blinked.
Izuku felt his eyes twitch. The explosive blond himself looks dumbfounded at what just happened. How did his old friend managed to strip down to his boxers' before anyone could even realize?
"He's extremely passionate." Yoarashi commented with good natured laugh. "And extreeemely comfortable too."
"Faster than a professional stripper tehehe." Mineta pipe up from his seat.
"Please refrain from doing that Bakugo!" Iida demanded. "Spare our innocence!"
"Have some dignity!" Hagakure screamed bloody murder.
"What the fu-" Katsuki wasn't even able to finish his sentence as Kyoka viciously shoves one of her jacks directly to his ear, causing him stumble in shock.
"That's enough!" Aizawa called out forcefully from his corner. The teacher suppresses a defeated sigh and he glared weakly at the discarded set of clothes. "Get dressed Bakugo and go back to your seat. Jiro sit down."
The two teens share heated glare and everyone saw how Katsuki hesitantly back down against the still blushing girl before grumbling loudly about someone named vault boy?
"There is only one more left." The teacher said, gesturing at the last student. "Let's not waste any more time."
It was Izuku's turn.
The green head nodded and stood up. There's no need to worry about stuttering like a startled rabbit or being different with his classmates. On his way to the front, his beautiful friend, Momo Yaoyorozu gave him a heart stopping smile while Ochako flashes him a thumbs up. Katsuki pretended not noticing him while Kyoka offered him a nod of acknowledgement despite still looking annoyed. Fumikage gave him a cut nod and Dark Shadow even manifested to give him a small wave.
"Nice to meet you everyone, I'm Izuku Midoriya and my quirk is called Sky Flames." Izuku told the class and quickly activated his pseudo Dying Will Mode. He immediately felt the calming boon of the Hyper Intuition as his eyes reflected the color of sunset. "It has two stages. The first one increases my strength and it makes me calm even in heat of battle, I can control fire from outside source and absorb to boost my firepower."
"He's hot." Asui said in a deadpan causing their classmates to give her a varied looks of shock. "What?"
"Hehehe she's not wrong." Mina agreed with a playful giggle. "Is that part of your quirk too?" The pinkette added while pointing at his face.
'Did I just get check out?' Izuku wonder curiously without showing any emotion outside. "Yes, the color of my eyes changes when I use it and as for the second stage, my quirk lets me generate my own flames from my head and hands and it was strong enough to actually let me fly."
"Really?" Sero ask in disbelief. "Man, how can I compete with that?"
"I had a question Midoriya!" Iida loudly said as he raises his hand robotically. "During Aizawa-sensei's quirk apprehension test why didn't you use any flames?"
"I can't use it at will." Izuku said gently, his voice had that calm, honey like quality but it carried a tone of melancholy. "My flames were closely tied with my emotion, so I need to use a support item to trigger the memory when I first activated it."
Everyone was curious with his vague explanation but didn't voice their question. Despite the gently expression Izuku wore, the atmosphere felt uncomfortable with the way he worded his sentence. He saw Momo, Ochako and Kyoka gave him a concerned looks while Katsuki paled. Not liking the mood, the Sky Flame user turn to address their teacher.
Aizawa was leveling him a calculating look, no doubt coming to his own conclusion. Izuku was sure that the entire faculty was aware with how he activated his flames back the entrance exam.
"Sensei, I believe we completed the all the introductions."
"Good, for the mean time just review your curriculum and wait for your next class."
The rest of the morning passes like a blur, while it was exciting to meet the heroes who will teach them general studies like Math, English, Science, etc, they quickly grew bored by how normal the way things are.
But that was until after lunch. The excitement sky rocket again, as Class 1-A look forward for their first Foundational Hero Studies since it will be taught by none other than the number one hero himself, the Symbol of Peace.
All Might.
"I AM COMING THROUGH THE DOOR-"
"LIKE A JACKASS!"
"LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"
Everyone was stunned, torn whether to be impressed or insulted on All Might's behalf when Katsuki shouted over pro hero when he slams the door open during his entrance.
"Bakugo!" Iida was the first one to react. "That is something a student shou-"
"HAHAHAHA! I like your spunk young man!" The number one hero boomed heartily before dazzling the class with his signature smile and striking a power pose. "Remember kids! A flashy entrance in face of danger or verbal attack is the best way to show confidence and reassure people that everything will be okay!"
The entire class watch in awe as All Might walks dramatically in front of the class, cape billowing despite not having any wind.
"Whoa, All Might's really cool!"
"That's his Silver Age costume!"
"It's extreeemely retro!"
"I welcome you students to your Foundational Hero Studies! And in this class we'll build your foundations through countless trials and rigorous training!" The hero sends a look on Katsuki's direction, the explosive blond couldn't prevent the hairs from the back of his head from standing on the edge as All Might's smile widen in small margin. "Today will be special! We'll have a patrol simulation for today's exercise!"
"Patrol?" Mineta asked with a frown.
"It might not sound exciting." Asui answered. "But it is one of the most important things that heroes do to keep the cities safe."
"That's right young lady! It is one of our duty to go on a patrol to keep an eye out for any signs of trouble while making an impression to the citizens we protect!"
"So basically we'll go look villains to beat while looking like a badass huh?" Kaminari said, cracking his knuckles. "Man I'm getting pump!"
"Oi don't jinx it." Sato told warily. "Don't you remember how scary Aizawa-sensei yesterday."
"Relax, this is All Might we're talking about! He's the manliest of the manliest!" Kirishima interjected. "No tricks, no logical ruse, just a straight up manliness!"
"I know right?"
Again, Katsuki couldn't prevent the chills from spreading across his body when the number one hero's smile gained a predatory glint for a briefest second as they listen to the two idiots prattle on. Both of them were sorely mistaken! All Might doesn't look like it but he's definitely had something more in this exercise.
His reaction didn't go unnoticed. Izuku saw how the blond trembled slightly before he composed himself. Looking at All Might, the green head got the distinct feeling that the hero was slightly amused with his classmate's naivety. There was a gleam in the hero's eyes similar to Rumi's when she put him to her shenanigans in name of training.
"One more thing," The Symbol of Peace pulled out a remote before pressing a button, causing several sections of the adjacent wall to slide out and reveal suitcase numbered from one to twenty. "These are the costumes you requested to utilize your quirk, suit up and head immediately to Ground Beta!"
She was really beautiful.
Like extremely beautiful.
Inasa Yoarashi furiously blushed and looked away when he caught himself staring at her again. But who could blame him?
Fuyumi Todoroki always had this effortless beauty that just grabbed everyone's attention. Her white hair with several red streaks was pulled in a bun with few spikes sitting atop of her head. Her hairstyle resembles the shape of pineapple, an extremely cute pineapple. She wore an elegant black winter coat over a red turtleneck, a pleated mini skirt, a pair of black leggings and brown leather boots.
She looks like a high class model instead of a hero in training, and it was so extreme!
How someone could have so much effect on him? Inasa felt small on her presence despite being the tallest on their class. He felt elated but also extremely silly at the fact that he was extremely blushing like a tomato whenever she was around.
The tall teen slaps his face with his unarmored hand, Todoroki might be extremely attractive but it isn't right to stare at her, he needed to focus to become the most extreme and passionate hero he can be!
"They say the clothes make the hero and with certainty, I could confidently say this." Thankfully All Might is here, the most passionate hero teaching on the most passionate school! He really can't miss a single moment of his lesson. "Ladies and gentlemen, from here on out, you're all he-"
A phone rang cutting off the hero. "Excuse me students I needed to take this."
At that, the tall teen desperately looks around, trying extremely hard not to stare again at the object of his attraction. It proved to be easy enough with so many costumes around. From Iida's and Aoyama's extremely shiny armor to his own, it help him took his mind off her somehow.
Then he laid eyes on Yaoyorozu.
She was arguably the most attractive girl besides Todoroki in the class and in her costume; it was so extreme but is that legal?
"Hehehe…" Mineta moaned shamelessly, openly ogling at the black haired beauty. Inasa shivered and felt extremely uncomfortable at boy's next words. "I'm so touching myself tonight!"
That something extremely inappropriate and while the Whirlwind user couldn't fault Mineta, there are things that you shouldn't just say out loud. Inasa started walking toward the shorter boy to give him an extremely friendly reminder to keep himself in check but someone beat him to it.
"Shut your trap you little shit stain!" It was the explosive blond who keeps on stripping, he was extremely rude with his words but he was extremely passionate too. His red eyes burned angrily behind his domino mask as he stomped his way toward Mineta. "We're here to be heroes, not to ogle! Stop being a pervert!"
The purple clad boy gulps nervously, but somehow found it himself to make a retort. "Says the stripper wannabe!"
"SAY THAT AGAIN!" Bakugo snarled extremely, daring the other boy to reply. Mineta extremely whimpered and slowly backed off, muttering something extremely incomprehensible under his breath.
"Thanks Kacchan," It was Midoriya, clad in an extremely simple white jacket with orange sleeves and hoodie that has a pair of long bunny ears? The green haired teen wore a pair of black trousers and over-sized red shoes. The only eye catching on his casual looking costume was the green gun and holster on his hip and those extremely fancy looking gloves.
"Yeah, yeah whatever," Bakugo growled though Inasa notices the way his ears redden. This one is extremely shy!
"You know you're actually a pretty nice guy Kacchan!" A girl in pink, Uraraka cooed adorably as she bounded over the two, followed by Jiro, Tokokoyami and Yaoyorozu herself.
"I didn't expect it from you but thanks." The tall girl said before smiling at Midoriya. "Hello master!"
"Like I said it's nothing." Bakugo replied with a scoff. "Ponytail is strong so she deserves respect."
"I agree with Uraraka." Midoriya said with a smile causing the blond to huff and look away, extremely embarrassed. "You're being modest Kacchan."
"You said it." The purple haired girl in the group said with a smirk. "Kacchan~ might look like an asshole but deep inside he's a big softie!"
"Shut it Lobes!" The explosive blond barked. "And stop calling me that!"
"What are you going to do about it?" Tokoyami asks teasingly. "You can't even look at her in the eye."
"Birdy!" The explosive blond warned with his smoking right hand, he and Kyoka look extremely scandalized. "Don't make me fucking fry you!"
"Kacchan, Kacchan, Kacchan~" Dark Shadow manifested and grins at the Zero Gravity user. "What do you think GG? It's a cute name isn't it?"
"Y-yeah," The brunette replied, looking at Bakugo with a mixture of wary and mischief. "It makes you sound friendlier and cute Kacchan! I think kids would love it!"
Inasa got to agree, Kacchan extremely sound nice and it strangely suits Bakugo.
"The great explosion hero, Kacchan." Yaoyorozu smirk playfully. "What do you think master? It would be a good hero name."
"Right," Midoriya agreed with a chuckle, causing the explosive blond to utter gibberish giving the other four teen a dirty look which was answered with three smug smirks and one unsure smile.
Inasa didn't mean to eavesdrop but these six are extremely fun.
"Sorry about that but brace yourselves students! It's finally time to start the exercise!" All Might announce with a booming voice. "Gather around people! Today we start and set your path on becoming true heroes!"
From there, the teacher explained their objective. The class will be divided into teams of two and for the next three hours, all team will patrol to their designated area around a fake city. They are tasked to look out for any suspicious activity and defend their district from any faux villains that may appear.
"I'm getting hype man!" Kirishima excitedly pumps his arms in the air. "I wanna fight me some robots!"
"While I don't disapprove of your enthusiasm young man, make sure to remember that your main priority as heroes is to keep our city safe." All Might told the red haired teen. "Now let's decide your teams with lottery!"
"All Might-sensei!" Iida, seemingly shock, raised his hand as the number one pulled out a box. "Is this really the best way to form teams?"
"It makes sense actually," Midoriya nodded in understanding. "Pro heroes often create makeshift teams with someone they're not familiar with. They have no way to prepare for the unexpected after all."
"Exactly young Midoriya!" The hero smiled in approval. "Random chance in most of our sessions is the best way to simulate the most fluid nature of the pro industry!"
At this, Inasa's thoughts went back to a single person. He couldn't resist and look around, heart beating extremely fast with the prospect that he might get paired with his crush.
"Alright listen up! These are the teams:"
"Team A, Ashido and Uraraka!"
"Team B, Iida and Kaminari!"
"Team C, Sato and Sero!"
"Team D, Asui and Mineta!"
"Team E, Yoarashi and Bakugo!"
"Team F, Hagakure and Ojiro!"
"Team G, Yaoyorozu and Shoji!"
"Team H, Todoroki and Tokoyami!"
"Team I, Kirishima and Jiro!"
"Team J, Midoriya and Aoyama!"
Inasa almost slumped in extreme disappointment but immediately shook himself. Bakugo is extremely gutsy and passionate guy, he's sure they'll extremely ace this exercise, they'll be unstoppable! There's no reason to feel disappointed.
"Hoy Baldy!" Baldy? Inasa turned and saw his extremely imposing partner. "Get over here we need to talk about a plan!
1 hour and 48 minutes later.
Shota gaze at the monitors with scrutiny. He was currently alone with All Might who was in his true form, inside the dark observation room as they both watch their students with critical eyes.
The underground hero had to admit to himself that he was far more impress so far with the exercise that the number one hero had come up with, proving that even though All Might is new to teaching, his experience to share to the new generation was far too invaluable.
The simulation was simple, ten teams of two were given a district to patrol, and their objective is to look out for disturbance and resolved it. For this exercise most of the obstacle came in form of the robots, the same faux villains used from the entrance exam which were easily dispatched.
However, most students quickly fell under the false assumption that they were being graded by merely repelling these faux villains.
While there's a continuous stream of faux villains attacking the mock city, it doesn't mean that all sectors divided for students get the same influx of opponents. Out of ten teams, only team A, D, E and G get to fight constantly, team C, F and H get moderate number and team B, I and J had next to none. They were being graded by their response and reaction based on their situation.
The way All Might spread out the number of villains had allow him and Shota to spot the mistakes that needed to be corrected, behavior to nip and lesson to teach. There was nothing wrong with making these mistakes, they were easy to rectify, they will be tempered and learn in years to come, provided Aizawa didn't expelled them first.
The members of Team A had both shown an aptitude and decent talent on the career they chose but their inexperience got in the way of their teamwork. Ashido was way too upbeat and chaotic preventing her to work in sync with Uraraka who was too concerned on overusing her quirk.
Team B, while not getting into any fight, made a mistake in their inaction. Iida was too uptight to follow the instruction to the letter and decided not to provide any assistance to Team A when the girls needed it despite being the closest to them. Kaminari grumbled about how uncool and boring not being able to fight but the blond was too laidback to argue with his teammate.
Team C had a good dynamic. The Tape user was great at distance, supporting his teammate by trapping and pulling the machine closer in order for the Sugar Rush user to pulverize their enemies. Sadly, having suffered through the drawbacks of his quirk, Sato became more prone to collateral damage and Sero was too caught up in the heat of the battle to care.
Team D had a good strategy of making full use of Mineta's adhesive-like quirk by slowing down the faux villains while Asui baited them to traps they laid out which made the machines easier to finish off. But the Pop Off user got frisky at some point and needlessly distracted his teammate in order to cop a feel. The inappropriate behavior proved to be fatal when a pack of machines managed to escape and hit the small teen but luckily Asui got a cool head and managed to grab her partner and get away.
Team I was in the same position like Team B but Kirishima's choice to move for assistance proved to be a detriment. For one, Team H, the team that was closest to them doesn't need any assistance and yet red head completely left and abandoned his teammate to guard their district alone.
That being said, Aizawa was pleased that the class was completely hopeless.
Even better there are students who actually showed their worth by fully utilizing each other's quirk and strength just like Team F. Considering how simple both Ojiro and Hagakure's qurks are and on how they incorporate it on their approach. They manage to make their teamwork impressive.
The Tail user showed how capable and efficient he is with his martial arts by dispatching the faux villain systematically. The invisible girl pulled her weight by taking full advantage of Ojiro's presence and sneaks around to go after stray machines and occasionally, she unleashes a beam of light that helped lightening the load on her partner.
Team G, so far had been impressive, both Yaoyorozu and Shoji had only stayed in a single spot, atop of the tallest building on their district. The Dupli-Arms user had proved how scary his quirk can be by extending his sensory in 360 degrees, leaving the machines at the Creation user's mercy who did not hesitate to fill them with lead.
This girl and her self-made firearms were scary combination.
Team E, Bakugo and Yoarashi proved not only to be powerhouses but also to be geniuses in battlefield. At first Aizawa thought both their quirk and personality would clash but the students surprised them by working together with surprising amount of efficiency.
The Whirlwind user stops literally every faux villain by lifting them up high in the air while Bakugo uses his oversized grenade-like gauntlets to destroy every faux villain in one big explosion, without any fear of collateral damage.
The Explosion user also kept a wary eye around in each interval when he reloads his gauntlets as if expecting for something, no someone to appear at any moment.
Shota frowned.
Bakugo, the three overgrown toddlers and All Might had a strange relationship. He would berate his colleague to avoid playing favorites but the number one pushes the explosive boy just as harsh as everyone else by inviting the Big Three for the climatic twist.
The scruffy looking teacher doesn't have time to dwell on it, however. There are only a few more minutes left to observe the remaining teams before they release the brutes from their cages.
Team H, Todoroki's and Tokoyami's group had shown a spectacular synergy. While Endeavor's daughter lacks the overwhelming firepower, unlike her older brother who was Aizawa's student two years ago, her quirk had proved to be very effective on stealth. Not only that it obscures the visibility around their district but it also causes some miniature explosions by utilizing the pressure of the sudden change in temperature, it was strong enough to knock the machines and cause distractions.
And due to its effect to lightings of their surroundings, Tokoyami's quirk, Dark Shadow was empowered and began to lay waste against anyone who dared to venture deeper on their territory, all the while crackling madly with its distorted voice.
"It's time." Aizawa nodded in approval on All Might's announcement. It was time for Class 1-A to face off against their unexpected foe, their unfair adversaries, their true test.
"Finally!" The familiar jovial voice resounded boisterously from the speakers. "It's been a while since we let loose guys, Katsuki stopped hanging out with us since the last time."
"Let me fight him first please!" A female voice added in excitement. "I call dibs!"
"Hado you're the reason why stopped hanging out with us." The third voice said in a meek tone. "You touch his-"
"I didn't mean it!" Nejire replied, sounding indignant. "I thought it was cute! Come on All Might-sensei, please let me find Katsuki-chan!"
"Fine but go after Team I first, young Amajiki go to Team B," All Might replied. "Young Togata, go after Team J, young Aoyama and young Midoriya and young Aoyama will be your opponents."
"Midoriya, you mean the top examinee from the entrance exam?" Mirio asked eagerly and upon receiving a grunt of affirmation from All Might the blond power house started to submerge. "Deal!"
"Remind them to hold back!" Shota told his colleague in an urgent voice.
"Uhhh… Azaiwa-sensei, they're already gone…" Tamaki told apologetically.
"You tell Recovery Girl we're sending her bodies later." All Might squirms at Aizawa's flat tone, fearing how the scary school nurse will react after the Big Three rough up the first years.
Eraserhead sighed and look back at the monitors. He had agreed with All Might to send Togata after Team J or more specifically, Midoriya who had shown an interesting choice of approach.
Arms and legs sprawled against the hard stone roof. The kid was dozing off in the middle of the exercise. It looks nothing noteworthy, irresponsible and illogically reckless even but if one takes account that Aoyama was nowhere to be seen, it's easy to see that Midoriya was trying to lure the trouble into a trap by exposing himself like an easy prey while his armor-clad teammate lie in wait.
To employ such tactic, did the kid predict that there's more in this exercise and took a gamble? Just like what he did on entrance exam? It's a stretch but nonetheless, it shows how daring the green haired teen and has much confidence with his skill even without knowing the odds. A trait that makes a hero strong but dangerous flaw that destroys fools.
And this kid is sure is something.
"Ugh… This sucks." Kyoka Jirou click her tongue in annoyance as the street around her shudders when a wave of yellow energy came crashing behind her, causing chunks of rubble to rain down.
She was pissed.
Not only her partner, Kirishima left her to find something to bash his stupid face with but also she found herself running and jumping around to avoid getting hit by those yellow beams.
"I didn't know All Might was an asshole of a teacher too." She cursed, hearing the faint whistle in the air before the asphalt before her exploded and send her stumbling backwards. "Thanks Kirishima."
To be fair, All Might didn't exactly say what kind of villains they need to face. But still this too much, just what the hell is he thinking!? This is way outside of her league.
"Oh Wow! You manage to dodge all of that, you're amazing!"
Kyoka groaned at the overly cheerful voice. Floating above her was a proud and immaculate looking teen, a few years older than her. She had a long blue hair with spiral tufts behind each ears, resembling a horn, a full body suit which was colored blue and different shades of green, a pair of yellow gloves with matching spiral wrist guards.
"I'm really impressed you last this long against me!" The older teen called herself Nejire-Chan, a third year student of the hero course and according to the blue haired teen herself, she's one of the top three student that U.A has to offer, a member of Big Three.
'Does she ever shut up?' The purple haired teen thought with irritation, unable to discern whether she was being patronized or praised. Something about the older girl grates her nerves. "Thanks?"
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," The floating girl giggled cheerfully. "I didn't mean to sound condescending. I really mean it when I said I'm impressed with you, most villains I face tend to go down easily in all of my internship you know!"
'Maybe I should give up.' Kyoka scowled at her bitter thoughts. She's not the kind of person to give up when things get hard but what could she do? She had no way of overpowering the older girl in both power and experience. "If you find running and jumping around impressive then sure, whatever."
"It really is!" Nejire tilted her head in question and after a few seconds of their stare down, the third year shrugs. "By the way can you tell me if you know someone named Katsuki? He's your classmates so you must know him! Do you know where he is?"
"What?" Kyoka gaped at the other girl who kept talking and started hugging herself while squealing.
"Ahh I really wanna see him you know!" Nejire half giggled, half moaning and it was clear to the purple head that she had forgotten about her. "He's always stripping now like Mirio, I think he's trying to seduce me you know! It's really a bummer when he stopped hanging out with me. I really want him to seduce me more!"
Kyoka blushed furiously as she shot a scathing glare at the girl. She felt something burning inside her as she kept listening to the older girl. She was beyond pissed, so pissed that she couldn't even speak the words she wanted to utter. Katsuki is stripping for this girl? That's absurd!
"Oh?" Nejire eyed the girl with interest when she noticed she's rambling again. "So you do know him."
Kyoka kept her mouth shut.
"And looks like you want to play more." The blue haired teen told her with that annoying smile. "I'll get a little rough this time."
Her earlobes twitch in agitation when the floating girl rolled her shoulder. She knew is she needed to take down this annoying airhead right here, right now, at all cost.
Tenya ran fast as he can.
"I must warn the others." The armored teen thought in frustration, leaving a trail of dust in his wake. "I can't believe it. I couldn't do anything!"
On his haste he didn't notice a purple ball in patch of dirt he was heading in. His speed allowed him to tear his foot from the trap but the sudden change of momentum made him lost balance and sent him sprawling across the street.
"Iida?" Tenya groggily sat up and saw Asui and Mineta tentatively approach him. The girl in green suit offered him a hand and asked. "What are you doing here?"
"Did something bad happen?" Mineta trembled and look from where he came from. "And why do you look so beat up?"
"Listen!" The speedster started urgently. "He got Kaminari, Uraraka and Ashido too! Sero and Sato tried to buy some time but I don't think they'll hold out. He's too strong!"
"Who is he?"
"I don't have time to explain. We have to-"
"Ummm… hello?" Tenya felt a sudden lump on his throat. He felt dread began to fill in his being as he began to sweat bullets under his armor. That nervous voice, it belongs to the teen that attacked him and Kaminari, incapacitated Ashido and Uraraka. If he was here that means…
When the speedster turned around to the voice he couldn't prevent the chills from spreading in his body, he couldn't fault Mineta falling to his knees with a scared whimper while Asui paled and started to shake.
Fear,
That's all they knew at that moment. Standing in front of them, was the teen- no a monster. He has a pair of sharp talons on where his feet should be, a pair a long dark feathered wings and black body armor covered his torso. His face which was no longer concealed with his white hood shows a menacing mask which was made of red shell and his most terrifying feature of all were his hands, two monstrous hands with five long tentacles in place of his fingers.
And with it, he which was dragging five unconscious teens, it was his partner and the others he left behind.
"I'm going to a-attack now o-ok?" The monster said apologetically.
Izuku open his eyes when he felt a presence moving fast to him. Quickly rolling to his left, he was able to dodge a crushing punch that would nail his face.
'This one's cautious.' He pulled out his Evoker without taking his already amber eyes off from his opponent.
"Nice reflex freshman." A tall and muscular blond teen grinned at him. He was wearing a white body suit with gold and green trimmings and the number '1000000' proudly labeled across his chest in bold gold font, a flowing red cape with matching pair of gloves, a pair of blue pants and white knee high boots with golden sole. "As expected of the top examinee, I'm Lemillion by the way."
Izuku wordlessly activated his Hyper Dying Will Mode, he's facing someone incredible strong, he could tell at one glance and if he wants to win he needed to get serious right from the beginning.
"Oh going all out from the very start are we?" Mirio chuckled and took his fighting stance. "Tell your partner not to interrupt. I want to see what you're made of."
"Ah," Izuku said, punching his fist together, flames began to coalesce with his X Gloves matching the flame burning on his forehead. "Don't worry about him, the only opponent you need to worry about… is me."
"Hm?" Lemillion raised an eyebrow at his declaration before adopting a predatory smile as the Sky Flame user entered his own battle stance. "Wonderful."
Without any warning, both teens rush forward to deliver a punch. Izuku easily weave his head around the attack and slammed his flaming fist against his opponent's chest. His attack connected but the surprising lack of flesh almost made the green haired teen stumble forward before he caught himself in time.
His Hyper Intuition blares in alarm, warning him to put up his guard for incoming attack. He raises a knee to block a blow that came for his gut but Mirio's attack phase through his guard and violently nailed him in his solar plexus.
Izuku was sent flying and before and even before he could grit his teeth in pain he knew he has no moment of reprieve when Mirio started to sink to the ground.
His Hyper Intuition roared in response to danger. He quickly willed the flames in his hand to burst so he could twist in the air to deliver a counter.
A roundhouse kick came crushing for a decisive blow in the head, but just like before Izuku's attack harmlessly pass through the older teen. The results however was effective, it gave the green head precious moments that he to create space.
'Huh? I freeze up.' Mirio grinned, completely impressed with his junior. He didn't feel like he had given away enough hints for Izuku to figure out how his quirk yet here they are. The green haired teen was able to predict where he will appear. Was that a fluke? Could be but it was really surprise him that he hesitated even for a moment. 'Interesting.'
At the same time,
'Intangibility, hm.' Izuku ignored the pain in his gut and regarded the older teen thoughtfully. 'From what I could tell, he's not always untouchable. He had to focus at the point of impact whenever he attacks.' The flame on his head flickers in unstable pattern as he raises his hands together. 'It's fine. He may be built to take out an opponent in a single punch but Rumi hits harder, I could take his attack, seal his quirk then I can defeat him.'
A/N: Took a while but it's finally here. Enjoy.
