MHA: Draigon
Hahaha! Have no fear fic fans! For I am here! Like it was mentioned in the previous chapter, it's training time! So let's skip the long introductions and get straight into the fic…
The next day Aizawa explained to their class about how the Sports Festival was a prime opportunity for students that wanted to get into the Hero Course but hadn't gotten a good enough score on the entrance exam to try and get the teachers to let them be put into the Hero Course, but doing so would result in a student already in the Hero Course to have to get dropped to General Studies to take their place. None of the students in 1A liked this and all of a sudden, the flock of students at their door yesterday made much more sense.
And at the end of the day, they got to experience something similar to yesterday. A guy with messy gray hair, and pointy teeth was outside their classroom. "Hey you!" He shouted. "That stunt you pulled yesterday wasn't cool! I'm from Class 1B next door to you! I heard you fought some villains and I came to see if that was true! But it turns out that your just a bunch of brats who think you're better than u-!" He wouldn't stop shouting so Nemo shut him up by grabbing his lips to stop him from talking.
"I have sensitive ears, so if you'd kindly shut up," Said Nemo as he glared at the guy, "it'd be oh so appreciated." The guy with gray hair obviously said nothing but glared at Nemo in response. Then Nemo let go of his lips and spun the guy around and pushed him away. "Now tell your class that if they pester us one more time, I'm gonna be a lot less nice." The gray haired guy growled as he stormed off. Nemo sighed as he watched him go. "Well then, see ya guys later, you remember where we're meeting right?" Asked Nemo. The ones in his training group nodded their heads. "A'ight then, catch ya guys later." And with that he was off.
After watching some more anime to keep up with the series that he was watching (can't fall behind, now can we?) he looked at the clock and saw that it was five till seven, which is when they were supposed to meet. Nemo got up and stretched, then focused on the park, which is where they had agreed to meet for training, and teleported away. Only to return five seconds later to grab his phone and tell his parents that he was heading out to hang with some classmates. Then he teleported to his destination for real.
Momo looked around in confusion. She could have sworn she'd seen Drai- Nemo just a moment ago but now he was nowhere to be seen, and training was supposed to begin in three minutes, honestly, was she the only responsible person in their- "Hey there Momo." Said Nemo appearing right next to her causing the taller girl to let out a cry of surprise and jump about a foot in the air.
"Don't scare me like that!" She scolded him, only to get and OwO face in response. She sighed. "It doesn't look like anyone else has shown up." She said. Nemo said nothing but pointed at where she wasn't looking. She turned and saw Koda standing there waving to her. She blinked in surprise and turned back to Nemo only to see Ojiro and Hagakure standing next to Nemo. Nemo managed to restrain a laugh as he pointed again, she turned again to see Aoyama and Tonoyami standing next to Koda. "How?" Was all she could ask.
"I teleport, she's invisible, they're just really quiet, and we've all just kinda learned how to ignore mister sparkles over here." Said Nemo as he pointed to himself, Hagakure, Koda, Tokoyami, and then Aoyama.
"And I just don't really stand out." Said Mashirao with a nervous laugh.
"Anywho, are you guys ready to get to work?" Asked Nemo.
"Of course, but what exactly are we doing?" Asked Momo.
"We will be doing." Said Nemo, pausing for dramatic suspense. "Hand to hand combat!"
"Hand to hand?" Asked Momo in surprise. "Why?"
"Well I thought it'd be obvious." Said Nemo. "Can any of you guess why we're doing hand to hand?" Nemo looked at those around him and saw Koda stick his hand into the air. "Ah! Koji."
"Because we can't always rely on our Quirks?" Signed Koda.
"Correct!" Said Nemo. Then realized that the others were looking at them in confusion, causing Nemo to chuckle nervously. "Koji said 'Because we can't always rely on our Quirks'."
"What do you mean mon amie?" Asked Yuuga.
"Simple, our Quirks aren't always going to get us out of every situation. Take Tooru for example." Said Nemo.
"Me?" Asked the invisible girl.
"Yeah, your Quirk makes you invisible, but that's it, no extra strength, speed, or anything. And just because they can't see their opponent doesn't mean that a villain will immediately give up. You're virtually Quirkless in an actual fight, just a little harder to hit." Explained Nemo. "And Koji, you're Quirk is only as useful as the animals around you, and if there are no animals, well…" Nemo didn't need to finish. "Momo, your Quirk lets you create stuff from your body, but let's say you don't have the time or room to create a weapon, what then? Yuuga, let's say you're in a dark place and you're trying to stay hidden while taking out the surrounding enemies, or you're in a cramped space, that laser of yours won't be doing you any favors. Fumikage, let's say it's too bright or too dark out, either making Dark Shadow too weak to fight, or too violent to the point of doing more harm than good. And Mashirao… you're a martial artist and you've got the right idea, there's nothing I need to reprimand you for." Mashirao beamed a little at that.
"I think we get the idea." Said Hagakure.
"Then let's get started." Said Nemo. "First things first though, we need to stretch."
After completing their stretches, the seven of them spent the next two and a half hours going through basic lessons on Karate, Jiu Jitsu, Taekwondo, Judo, and Boxing. Once they were done, everyone was on the ground sweating and exhausted, except for Nemo and Ojiro, who looked like they could go for another hour and a half. "Nice job dude." Said Nemo giving Ojiro a fist bump.
"Thanks." Said Mashirao.
"Alright guys, I want you guys to think over everything I taught you all throughout tomorrow, and while your exhausted muscles are healing themselves and making you stronger, I want you to decide which two martial arts you liked best and I'll start to focus your training on solely those two arts." Said Nemo.
"But why don't you just teach all five to each of us?" Asked Fumikage.
"Time, we don't have much of it, hardly enough to make you masters of a single martial art, much less five, but if we only focus on two each, I might be able to get you guys good enough for the festival within the next two weeks." Explained Nemo. "Now get yourselves home and rest, you guys are gonna feel like garbage that was put through a food processor, and it's only gonna get worse." He watched everyone groan as they forced themselves to their feet. "Catch you guys later." And with that, Nemo turned and started walking home.
"You're walking? You aren't gonna just teleport?" Asked Hagakure, causing Nemo to stop and look at her.
"Nah, if I rely on my Quirk too much to get around, I'll get lazy, I just used it to get here to prove that you don't ever need to worry about me being late." Explained Nemo. Then with a wave he continued on his way. As he walked away, he switched abilities again to hear what they were thinking.
He smiled when he heard all of them think a similar thing. "This guy is something else."
Nemo watched in amusement as the majority of his class, save for Ojiro, Todoroki, Midoriya, and Bakugou, drag themselves around from class to class. "So how do you guys feel?" Asked Nemo with a smile as he sat down to talk to the ones he trained with.
"I feel like creating a bomb and blowing you up." Said Momo grumpily.
"Testy testy, I expected more from you Momo, I didn't take you to be the type to get grumpy when they're tired." Said Nemo.
"Are you enjoying our suffering!?" Demanded Tooru.
"A bit too much probably." Said Nemo with a shrug.
"Ojiro mon amie, you do not seem all too fatigué." Said Aoyama his usual sparkle severely dwindled.
"What?" Asked Ojiro.
"Tired." Said Yuuga flatly.
Mashirao chuckled nervously. "Well, I'm already a trained martial artist, so I'm a bit more used to this, but even I have to admit that Nemo's training is a bit grueling." He said.
"But you still take it on like a champ!" Said Nemo as he wrapped an arm around Ojiro's shoulders.
"Yeah Ojiro! You're amazing." Said Hagakure, causing Ojiro to blush a little and chuckle nervously.
"C'mon you guys, stop." Said and embarrassed Mashirao.
"So then, have you guys decided which martial art styles you wish to focus on?" Asked Nemo.
"I have one, but I'm still deciding on the other." Said Tooru.
"No Jiu Jitsu. Or Judo." Said Nemo almost immediately.
"What!? Why!?" Demanded Hagakure.
"Take a moment to consider your hero outfit, then you tell me." Said Nemo flatly.
Hagakure was quiet for a few seconds. "Pervert." She said.
"I'm not a pervert." Growled Nemo. Then he sighed. "I'm just thinking practically, would you have rather I said nothing and wait for you to find out the flaw the next time you used what I taught you while you were in your hero suit?"
"...no." Said Tooru.
"Exactly." Said Nemo with a sigh. With that he finished his food. "Let's get back to class."
Momo arrived at the location for the lesson. "What took you so long?" Joked Nemo as he hung from a tree branch by his legs.
"Nemo? How long have you been here?" Asked Yaoyorozu.
"Well let's take a look." Said Nemo as he pulled out his phone. "Mmm… 'bout ten minutes. Why do you ask?"
"And you didn't teleport?" She asked.
"Already told you, I teleported yesterday to prove a point. I won't be doing that for the rest of the two weeks to get to or from our training." He said as he dropped from the branch and onto his feet.
"We are here mon amie!" Nemo and Yaoyorozu turned and saw the rest of their group arrive.
"Alrighty then. First things first, time to stretch." Said Nemo.
Once they were done, Nemo faced his group. "Alright, have the five of you chosen your desired arts?" Asked Nemo.
"Five?" Asked Mashirao.
"Right, Mashirao, your training is going to be a little different from the others since you're a martial artist, probably should've clarified that yesterday." Said Nemo.
"Ok…" Said Mashirao. Then they turned their attention back to the others.
"Momo, you first." Said Nemo.
"Uh, ok, I'd like to specialize in Karate and Jiu Jitsu." She said.
"Alright." Said Nemo with a nod. "Tooru?"
"I'm gonna do Boxing and Karate!" She said energetically.
"All right, that's a good combo." Said Nemo.
"I will be doing the dazzling combination of Taekwondo and Judo." Said Aoyama.
"K, Fumikage?" Asked Nemo.
"I plan to specialize in Jiu Jitsu and Taekwondo." Said the bird headed boy.
"Nice nice." Said Nemo. Then he turned to Koda. "And what do you want to do?" He signed.
"I'm going to do Judo and Boxing." Signed Koji.
"Alrighty then, now I know what to focus on." Said Nemo.
"But how are you gonna teach all of us at the same time?" Asked Momo.
"Simple." Said Nemo as he moved his hands to make a hand sign. "Shadow Clone Jutsu." Suddenly five clones of Nemo appeared from a puff of smoke. "Take your pick you guys, I'll be training with Mashirao." Said Nemo as he split off with Ojiro while the rest of his group picked from the clones.
Once they were on their own, Ojiro asked, "So what will we be doing?"
"Well since you're already a powerful martial artist, I figured we could spar to help you improve both your martial arts skills and your Quirk." Explained Nemo.
"Ok, that makes sense." Said Mashirao.
"Alrighty then, shall we?" Asked Nemo as he got into a fighting stance.
The two teenagers then began to spar. Nemo threw a punch which Mashirao deflected, then threw a chop with his other hand. Nemo deflected the chop with his other hand and then used it to hit Ojiro with a palm strike. Ojiro threw a tail smack at Nemo who deflected it with his leg before using it to throw a kick of his own, which Ojiro jumped backwards from to dodge. Nemo threw another kick which Ojiro side stepped before throwing a punch at Nemo, who brought his arm up to block before throwing a punch of his own. The two continued like this for a little bit, then Ojiro knocked Nemo off balance with a tail smack and was about to punch him. In that moment Nemo no longer saw Ojiro but instead saw the Nomu from the U.S.J and his reaction was instinctual. Or, simply put, Ojiro got a flaming knuckle sandwich. The tailed boy let out a grunt of pain as the force of the attack sent him sprawling. The other Nemos and the other members of the training group stopped to see what happened. Nemo stood there panting, a scowl on his face.
"Ojiro!" Cried Tooru, the others came rushing over to him. Nemo finally started to relax, and his eyes widened in realization at what happened. He could only stand there dumbstruck at what had just happened.
"What happened?" Asked Momo.
"I don't know." Groaned Ojiro as he sat up and rubbed his face. "We were just sparring and he suddenly lost it and decked me one."
The others looked at Nemo who was staring at the ground. "Sorry Mashirao." He said.
"Well, I'm assuming there is a reason you went as far as you did in a sparring match mon amie?" Asked Aoyama.
"I… it's nothing, I just overreacted." Said Nemo, not wanting to explain what'd happened. "Maybe we should call it quits for tonight." The clones vanished as he turned and started to walk away. He stopped when he felt a hand on his shoulder.
He looked and saw Koji. "You don't have to explain what happened, it's obvious that it's something that you don't wish to speak about, but we'd like to continue training." He signed.
"Koji…" Said Nemo.
"I really wish we could understand you Koda." Said Tooru.
"Yes, but none of us know sign language." Said Yaoyorozu.
"I could teach you guys if you want." Said Nemo.
"But won't that take time away from training?" Asked Tokoyami.
"Not with my special 'five second lesson'." Said Nemo.
"Five second lesson?" Asked Momo.
"Sure, I can just send the entire language from my memory into your heads using my Quirk." Explained Nemo. Some of the others exchanged glances. "Though given what just happened I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't trust me."
"Th-that's not it!" Momo assured him. "We just didn't know you could do that, but I can say that I'd be happy to lead sign language."
"Same here." Said Ojiro. The others all agreed to learn to.
"Alrighty then." Said Nemo as he stood up and used his Quirk to add another person's abilities to his arsenal. He then made a gun shape with each hand and pointed the left one at the side of his head. "Tap." He then pointed the right at the others. "Broadcast." A beam of light shot from his right hand and hit Yaoyorozu, then bounced off her and hit Aoyama, then it went to Hagakure, then Tokoyami, and then Ojiro. Nemo then held up his hands. "Did it work?" He signed.
The others all blinked for a second before smiling (Nemo assumes Hagakure smiled.) and brought their hands up. Then they all signed various forms of yes. Except Hagakure, since no one could see her hands.
"One sec." Said Nemo as he required a pair of gloves and tossed them to her. "Try that one more time with these on."
She complied and put the gloves on. "I understood you." She signed.
Nemo and Koda couldn't help but smile. "All right gang, back to work." Said Nemo. They all signed words of agreement to him.
I'd say that that was a pretty sweet ending for this chapter. Twelve days until the Sports Festival. And now Nemo has another power set. For those of you wondering, he copied Gowther from The Seven Deadly Sins. Friendships are being made, powers are being acquired, and everyone is becoming stronger. The Sports Festival is just around the corner, and I have a challenge for you guys, or three to be more specific. If you can guess any of the following:
1: Who else Nemo'll copy before or during the Sorts Festival.
2: Who he'll team up with during the Calvary Battle.
Or 3: Who Nemo will fight in the final tournament.
I'll give a shout out to you on the chapter in which your guess cake true. With that aside though, I need to jet, so until next time fic fans, Nemon0416 is outta here! (Go Beyond! Plus Ultra!)
