Chapter 5
Hero Course Training
"I am here!" All Might yelled as he stood in front of the doorway for a moment before entering the classroom. "Coming through the door like a normal person."
"Since when does a normal person enter through a door normally the way you're doing?" Lily said which caused All Might to flinch a bit from the bluntness in her voice.
"I-I suppose normal people would do what I do. A-Anyway, it's hero basic class time. The class that will put your skills to the test on how to be a hero. And today's subject for today, battle training!" He said as the majority of the students cheered in excitement from hearing this. "In accordance with your quirk registry and the hero costume forms you filled out before being admitted."
"Costumes!" Some of the students yelled as the side of the wall opened up to reveal multiple suitcases with numbers on then. So far from what Lily could see, each student would have their hero costume but not herself. Which is understandable given how she just got put into the class this morning. She soon notices All Might staring at her before hearing him speak.
"Sorry that we don't have a hero costume for you, Young Lily. You never did fill out the form which we should've had you do from the beginning instead of throwing you into the hero course. That's our fault."
"It's fine. I'll just wear the school uniform I have on."
"Are you sure, we do have a gym uniform for you to wear."
"Will it fit?" She asked which caused All Might to pause and place a hand to his chin. "Yeah, I figured as much."
"All Might sir. Is it wise to let someone like her join in this training session?" Iida said as Lily glared at the class representative. "She's well under-prepared given how she doesn't have a hero costume, nor does she have the proper respect for this school's dress code, nor does she show any respect towards you."
"So does Bakugo, but you're not on his ass when it comes to this shit." Lily yelled as Iida turned his attention onto the pseudo-servant. "The fuck you're looking at you rich bitch?"
"Settle down you two. Now it's true she's under preparation for something like this. But this can be a lesson for her and everyone in this class." All Might said as Iida turned his attention back onto him. "A hero should be ready for anything that might come his or her way. There might be times where you won't be able to get to your hero costume and you'll have to fight a villain while not being prepared. The fact that Lily is still wanting to do this is a clear sign that she's willing to learn...right?"
"Yeah, sure. Wouldn't be the first time I have to do something like this." Lily said while leaning back in her seat.
"Excellent! Get yourselves suited up students and meet in Ground Delta!"
[hr]
Once the students changed into their hero costumes, they quickly made their way to field delta. From what the bunny girl could tell, it looks like they're in an industrial area. Similar to where Lily was living before joining U.A. It was nice to be in an area that she's somewhat familiar with due to her upbringing. Lily took in the scenery for a while before turning her attention onto her classmates' hero costumes. Some seemed to interest her for the most part, while others...not so much as she wondered how wearing something with little to no protection like that would help them in battle. Though her attention was soon focused on Artoria the moment she heard her voice speak into her head.
"It's time to put what you learned over the ten years of training to the test."
"You mean using my enhancements to win?"
"No, you're going to be using my powers to test out how your body is able to handle being a Pseudo-Servant. To be specific. You will be using Excalibur."
"Wait really? I thought you said that I couldn't use it as of yet."
"That's with the holy spear, Excalibur is a different story. I'm giving you full raine to use it however you please. Just remember not to kill anyone with it and be mindful of how powerful it is."
"So basically a sword mastery test, just with how I can control it."
"Indeed. You are about to wield the sword of promised victory that rivals that of Rhongomyniad and Avalon, the ultimate shield that can counter nearly anything. If you can prove to me you can control them over time, then you'll be ready to wield the holy lance."
"Noted." Lily said before noticing Momo walking over to her, though she would blink upon seeing her hero costume. "Is there a reason why you're wearing clothes that show off certain parts of your body? Wait, are you copying my uniform look?"
"W-What? No! I'm not copying you or anything. This is just mere coincidence!" Momo said with a frantic blush on her face as it caused Lily to laugh.
"Relax, I'm just messing with you Momo. But in all seriousness, how come you're dressed like that?"
"Oh, right. I never did explain my quirk to you, have I?" She asked before extending a hand towards Lily as a small ball appeared in her hand from her skin. "I'm able to create almost anything so long as I know what they're made up from. You know, like what materials are required to create the item."
"...Okay, not going to lie. But that's an impressive quirk to have. You're like a walking human arsenal in a way. Kinda wish I had a quirk like that."
"I never did ask, but what is your quirk?"
"Oh..Um...I never really thought of a proper name for my quirk...But I think showing you what it is during this training session would be better than explaining it which I'm not very good at doing." She said as Momo nodded. Their attention was soon drawn onto All Might who cleared his throat to get their attention.
"Listen up you newbies. Today will be a special training event. Seeing how we have a new student joining the hero course, we had to change things up a bit. We'll be doing capture training." He said before reaching behind himself to pull out a small notebook. "In this training session, you will be split into two teams. One team will be the heroes, while the other will be the villains. For the heroes, they will be trying to capture the villains with the capture tape that everyone should've taken upon entering here. The villains will do whatever it takes to make sure the heroes don't try and capture you or the bomb. Because if the heroes capture the villains or the bomb before time runs out, then the heroes win. But if the Heroes are captured by the villain or they fail to capture the bomb, then the villains win."
"An open area like this would be for the best. An Enclosed area would limit your mobility for the most part. Plus swinging a sword in a small crapped area would cause more damage to the building then to your sword." Artoira said before she and Lily noticed All Might moving to the side to reveal two boxes with the letter A and B on them.
"All Might sir." Momo said as she raised her hand. "Shouldn't something like this be done in an enclosed area as a means to teach us how to minimize our usage of our quirks?"
"Normally we would do that. But again, given how we have a new student added to the hero course. Principal Nezu thought it would be a good idea to change things up a bit." He said before eyeing Lily without her knowing. "That and if she does have the same strength as I do, then she could destroy the building they'd be in when we were planning on using it before. It would be interesting to see the extent of her natural ability that she claims to be not a quirk."
"Understood. Sorry for interrupting your explanation." Momo said before lowering her hand.
"I took the liberty of placing your names in both A and B boxes and I will be picking out two names from out of the boxes. Whoever names I call out of box A first will team A, same goes for box B." He said before reaching into box A and B to pull out two names. "For Team A, Bakugo and Iida. For Team B, Lily and Momo!" He announced as it took the four students by surprise.
"Huh, looks like we're up to the plate." Lily said as she looked over at Momo with a somewhat worried expression on her face. "Hey, you okay?"
"Oh, I'm okay...just wasn't expecting to be called upon so quickly. Nor expecting to be on the villain's side."
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure getting involved with me has something to do with that. Feel free to hate me if you want."
"All Might said that he was pulling names out at random. So I don't think me interacting or being friends with you has anything to do with being labeled villains. Like with anything else, we need to take this with pride. As such, I will have to embrace my dark side to do this." She said while trying to look menacing...but it would only come off as adorable and funny which caused Ururaka to try not to laugh. Lily on the other hand rolled her eyes with a smile on her face at what Momo was doing.
"You will have fifteen minutes to complete your mission." He said before reaching behind himself again to pull out a remote. Once it was it, he pressed a button as a floating screen appeared above the class to show them a map of the field they'll be fighting on. "Your locations are marked on the map, each team will have a two minute preparation period to get themselves ready. When you hear the buzzard sound, that means the round has begun. Good luck to both teams!" He said as both teams went to their separate locations.
"Any idea on what their quirks are Momo?" Lily asked as Momo quickly walked up next to the bunny girl.
"Iida's quirk allows him to move really fast, while Bakugo is able to make explosions with his sweat."
"So we got a speedster and a bomberman." Lily said as she placed a hand to her chin. "Is there a limit to what your quirk does?"
"Other than what I said earlier and that depending on what I make requires a lot of lipids or fat cells in order to make the object."
"So basically you need to eat food to replace the lipids you lose when creating something." Lily said as Momo nodded. "...I have an idea, but I need you to make a liquid metal about two bathtubs full of it." She requested as it took Momo off guard.
"Requesting something like that will completely drain me of my lipids and would leave me unable to move."
"Don't worry about the food issue." She said before pointing to her giant rabbit tail which she noticed had a lot of food inside, mainly snacks from the vending machine at school.
"You carry all that with you!?" Momo asked as she was again taken surprised by this, but paused as a question appeared in her head. "Wait, isn't this against the rules?"
"Technically he didn't say that we couldn't bring food along with us….plus we're on the side of villainy and he did say to do whatever we can to make sure the heroes lose...so long as we don't kill them."
"I mean...yeah you're right...but still."
"If we get in trouble, I'll take the blame for it." Lily said as she placed a hand on Momo's shoulder and grins. "Now, let's go over the plan shall we~?"
