The fun part about this title is that it could work for either one of my new fics. Now that's efficiency! Anyway here's chapter 2, don't expect these quick releases for much longer. I'm essentially in my creative honeymoon right now so ideas are prepared and flowing but that won't last forever.

BTW, I don't know the proper terms on how to describe the uniform from Demon Slayer so just imagine the Deku from this Story's cover image.

On to the story!

"Hey! You three, heading to the station? Wait up I'll join you!" Ochako called out to the trio of students walking away from campus.

"Oh, hello again Uraraka-san, sorry about earlier but with Aizawa-sensei being the way he is I couldn't speak with you." Izuku's face lit up with recognition and he returned Ochako's warm smile with one of his own.

"However Yaoyorozu-san and I won't be taking the train, we have our own transport prepared, feel free to walk with us till then though." He corrected her, it was actually rather dangerous for him to take public transport in particular. Quite a few people wanted his head, both for what was inside it and literally, being what amounted to a weapons dealer for the heroes came with it's fair share of enemies.

Izuku POV, hours later at home

It was great to know that he had so many friends after such a short amount of time. It was a surprise to see Yaoyorozu at U.A but a welcome one. Uraraka was as mom predicted, quirky and happy to be friends. And finally Iida was a good person who he knew would make a great friend, he could try to be a bit less serious though.

All in all it was a pretty great first day, and with any luck this will continue. Though he was particularly excited for tomorrow, after all it would be the start of their first real day at U.A, and if his sources were right, it would mean having classes with his own favorite hero!

The next day, still Izuku POV

Class was in session and if I had to describe it in one word...Normal would probably be it. We had all the regular classes you'd expect. Modern literature, mathematics, modern hero art history...Ok maybe they weren't all quite normal. The points remain though, other than the fact that we had heroes for teachers not much was different from an ordinary high school.

None of which I was particularly interested in. Not that I wasn't studyish or anything, it's just that having money came with several perks. One of which happened to be access to some of the finest tutors out there so I was already significantly ahead of most of my class.

Exceptions existed of course, Yaoyorozu, Iida, and Todoroki were equally gifted with some of the best education affordable along with their own talent and Kacchan was as talented as always so we all had it relatively easy, at least for the first few semesters until the difficulty of our course work inevitably ramped up. This was the nation's top school for a reason.

I also managed to make a decently sized circle of friends, even larger than I had originally thought. Said circle was currently sitting with each other at a circular lunch table discussing our next, and most anticipated class period.

"So, who do you guys think is going to be our teacher for Heroics? They've been keeping it really hush hush from what I can tell, I couldn't even find a rumor, even the upper years are keeping quiet." Kirishima, a boisterous, straightforward, but good natured redhead asked, probably trying to make conversation.

"I hear ya, online forums, the local grapevine, I even tried probing Midnight-sensei but all she gave me was a creepy smile before she ran off giggling to herself...I don't know how to feel about that last one." Kirishima's friend from middle school, the equally boisterous but far more mischievous Ashido agreed.

Lunch was over, and with it came our last period of the day. The class that everyone's been waiting for: Heroics 101! And the teacher? Well I'm happy to say that my connections were reliable as always.

"No idea kero. Whoever it is they must be really important considering how hard they're keeping things locked down. Maybe they're a member of the top 10?" Asui Tsuyu, though she prefered to be called Tsuyu, guessed correctly.

"I don't know for certain but I do have some informants here and there, they tell me that it's likely to be All Might. Though I'm with Tsuyu on this one, it's likely to be one of the top 10, except for Yoroi Musha, Edgeshot, Hawks, and Endeavor who I know for a fact aren't interested in teaching." I gave my answer, revealing a bit of information personally hoping that it was right, I always wanted to meet All Might in person.

"Wow seriously! That's awesome! But wait what do you mean when you say informants? Like spies? And how do you know that those heroes wouldn't want to teach here?" asked Sero Hanta, eyes cartoonishly large at what I said.

"Not quite spies, but having so many pro heroes as customers has it's benefits. That's the reason why I know that those top heroes won't be here. Yoroi Musha is set in his ways, teaching isn't part of them." The old hero could do one thing, fight, but he can do that one thing very well.

"Edgeshot can teach but not in large groups, he's more of a one on one guy. Imagining Hawks and Endeavor as teachers is just plain hilarious but for opposite reasons, Todoroki-san can back me up on that last one." And he did, granted it was from a table away but his thumbs up was accepted nonetheless.

Finishing up with our meal we headed back to our classroom, sat down and waited for the big man himself to arrive, and oh boy did he. "I AM...coming through the door like a normal person!" All Might came in, not at all like a normal person but nobody expected him to. This was the number 1 hero after all, he knew how to make an entrance.

"Wow, Midoriya was right! It's really him!" Sero exclaimed, grabbing everyone's attention.

"Oh, so one of my students knew about me ahead of time? Midoriya right? Makes sense, you're rather well known for your connections but enough of that! No time to dally, today's activity is:" He pulls out a large card with the word Battle on it. "Combat training!" The student's excited sheers came immediately after, especially when All Might showed off the containers with their costumes inside.

Minutes later

'*sigh, this looks cool and everything but by god is it hard to put on quickly. Hopefully I haven't kept everyone else waiting for long.' I thought to myself as I sprinted towards the entryway to ground beta where the rest of my class was no doubt waiting.

"Ah Midoriya! Cool costume, it has an old school samurai feel to it!" Uraraka complimented as she saw me approach, now that I was closer I could get a good look at everyone else's costume. Starting with the gravity girl herself.

And what a costume it was. 'Oh my…' I shake my head a bit, dispersing the impure thoughts. It did look good though, and I could see that she was going for a space theme, it made sense considering what her quirk was. 'I wonder if she's a fan of Thirteen?' I guess. It would make sense.

"W-wow.. I-I mean- Y-you too, I love the space theme you have going on." I stutter slightly, slowly trying to look away and distract myself with the other costumes...Until i realized that Uraraka's costume was actually one of the more modest ones among the girls.

'Why are they all wearing skin-tight spandex?! And what the hell Yaoyorozu?! I know your quirk needs exposed skin but there are better ways damn it!...At least Jiro has something different though it has its own charms.'

So as I utterly fail at distracting myself(or succeed depending on your perspective) Uraraka went on about how she should have been more specific with her costume, something I had a hard time agreeing with considering the result...I was a growing boy cut me some slack!

Thankfully All Might finally decided to get class underway before I could embarrass myself further. "Now, onto the exercise!" He began, it would be a pretty by the numbers indoor combat operation with a fake nuclear weapon acting as the objective.

"As for the teams, we will be drawing lots to decide, afterwards I will pull each team's letter from this box in order to decide hero/villain pairs." And so we drew lots, Sero and I were paired up as team C, the hero team, and our opponents were Kacchan and Shoji who made up team D as villains.

"Hahahaha! Get ready shitty Deku, looks like it's my lucky day!" Kacchan laughed maniacally...Was it bad that I couldn't tell whether he was playing along with his role or completely serious?

"You got it Kacchan, give me your best because I won't respond with any less." I responded good naturedly, though the blonde bomber just scoffed and headed towards the building. Shrugging I turn towards Sero and begin planning with him.

"So, got any good swords that could help out with this? My own quirk is pretty simple to understand, I can shoot tape out of my elbows, it's pretty strong stuff and can even hold large boulders without too much effort. That's about it." He explained his quirk, it was indeed very simple but equally useful.

"I have a few that could come in handy, but first I should tell you what I know about kach-Sorry, I mean Bakugo. Granted most of what I know is nearly a decade outdated but it could still come in handy." I went on to explain what I could about Kacchan's quirk, how it worked and how I could counter it. Along with his personality and how that almost guarantee that he'd go after me the moment the exercise started.

Five minutes later we entered the building. Well, I entered the building while Sero stayed behind for a little bit before climbing his way to the top of the building. We decided to split up in order to divide up the enemy.

Kacchan was going after me most likely which left Shoji to defend the bomb, and from what I could see his quirk would make stealth difficult, hence why Sero suggested that he go for it immediately since his quirk would let him fight effectively at a distance.

Meanwhile I would walk on in, taking a straight path that would make it easy for Kacchan to find me, which I prepared for by queing up one of my more useful blades as far as 1v1 fights went, especially against someone with Kacchan's volatile quirk.

It was seconds later when Kacchan leapt from the next corner and pointed his palm towards me. "SUCK IT DEKU!" With that marvelous battle cry the world exploded...Or it would have if I hadn't prepared a certain blade. Though calling this weapon a 'blade' would be a lie.

"The fuck?" Was Kacchan's elegant reaction to his arm being blocked by a large black mass. A giant kanobo easily twice his size was sitting where Izuku was seconds ago. 'Did he just...Read me?!'

"Sorry Kacchan, but I can't go easy on you. Crush Down: Tengumaru. And this time, Kacchan's world exploded. The giant weapon sent fireballs towards the young bomber, the heat of which detonated his sweat, both on his palms and in his grenade gloves, which thankfully hadn't been filled to capacity just yet, meaning that the explosion wasn't completely catastrophic.

Observation room (3rd person POV)

"Wow." Was the common reaction of the students upon seeing the efficient, and pretty brutal defeat of one of the villain team members in just one move. "Damn, what does he lift?" Mineta couldn't help but ask after seeing Izuku carry such a huge weapon as if it weighed nothing.(1)

As for their teacher. "...Wow." Huh. Guess the reaction was about the same, All Might couldn't help but let that slip though. Those moves were impressive, especially for a total greenhorn! It almost seemed as if this kid already had experience in live combat, but that couldn't be right could it?

Back with Izuku

The whole floor they were on was left in rubble and probably Kacchan wasn't going to get up any time soon. But just to be safe I tied him up with capture tape anyway, making sure that he wasn't too ruffed up while doing so. "Sorry Kacchan, but you'd probably be even angried if I held back." With those words said he decided to head upstairs, checking each room as he went searching for Sero, Shoji, the bomb, or any combination of the three.

Luckily I came upon all three once I reached the top floor and heard the sounds of a struggle. Running over to where the noise was coming from I saw a room covered in tape and the two other students circling around each other.

Shoji was trying his best to dodge any attempts to hold him down by taping him to the floor while trying his best to get close while Sero did his best to keep a distance and grab the nuke. By this time both looked exhausted and Shoji was covered in stray strands of tape attached to his...Wings? Would you call those wings? I'mma call them wings.

Making a quick plan I disengage Tengumaru and summon a second blade, this time it's design was much more modest. Like most of his blades it started as a regular katana and changed the moment it's name was called. "Snap: Tobiume!"

Tobiume's blade straightened, becoming double-edged, and producing multiple jutte-like prongs along its length at various intervals, not unlike a Seven-Branched Sword. The release call grabs both student's attention as they turn to me. I aim Tobiume and point it at Shoji, prepared to launch a small fireball at him should he try anything.

"Sero, go for the bomb, if Shoji tries anything I'll cover you." He did just that and sent another strand of tape towards his target, Shoji immediately tried to step in the way but was promptly dissuaded from doing so via the head sized fireball that zoomed past him, hitting the concrete wall which it singed black. "Careful, I can limit the strength of these but they'll still hurt quite a bit, and the next one won't miss." I warned, though I was sure he could dodge him if he tried. That wasn't the point though, that small distraction was more than enough for Sero to finish the job.

"The hero team wins!" All might called out from the P.A signalling the end of the exercise. Good thing too, I think Kacchan needed to visit the nurse while Sero and Shoji looked exhausted from the earlier fight. Hopefully our team did well enough to impress All Might but I couldn't help but think that I could have ended it all with less collateral damage than this.

There we have it folks, chapter two of this story, the creative bug hit me hard today so I managed to crank this one out relatively soon. Hope you all enjoy it!

1) Fun fact, Zanpakuto feel as if they weigh nothing to their true wielders. In this case, Izuku or anyone else that spends a significant amount of time with the weapon, sealed or in shikai.
