That time I was reborn as a warrior princess

Chapter 20- the summer camp part 2

After feeling her rage, Aizawa did not have any choice but giving Byleth all the training schedule he had planned along with Vlad for Class 1A and 1B. After triple checking the schedule, Byleth saw the training was a bit extreme but not enough to put everybody in danger. She returned the training schedule to Aizawa but she warned him she would be watching him. She also warned if she felt anything that would put Katsuki or anyone from Class 1A and 1B in danger again, she would make sure he and everyone involved would lose their licenses for good. Aizawa gulped, he knew she was serious and he would make sure to warn Vlad about Bakugou's guardian spirit.

The next morning everything went right with the training schedule. They woke up around five in the morning. The Class 1B joined them shortly and once their homeroom teacher, the Blood Hero Vlad King took his spot beside Aizawa, both the teachers began to explain things to their students.

"Over the last three months," Aizawa said as he put the tablet back in his pocket. "You all have definitely improved. But that improvement has been mostly at the mental and technical levels, as well as some growth in your stamina. As for your Quirks…they haven't grown all that much."

Vlad grinned as he saw the students start to figure it out for themselves. "That's why we'll be working on upgrading your Quirks starting today."

His smile was mirrored by Aizawa, who looked just a little too happy to the gathering of teenagers. "It'll be so hard you'll feel like dying, but try not to actually die!"

"Upgrade our Quirks?" Sero repeats in wonder.

"That sounds manly!" Kirishima grinned. "I'm getting pumped up!"

"Having a dragon form is not enough of an upgrade for you?" muttered Ojiro, a bit jeoulou with Kirishima having a dragon form.

Kyoka looked a little apprehensive. "Is training forty-odd unique Quirks something that just six Pro heroes can manage?"

Aizawa grunted. "That's why we've got backup."

"Yup!"

The gathering of students turned back to the building at the peppy voice and realized that all four members of the Pussycats had gathered, including the two Class A hadn't met the day before. Each one wore their hero costumes and looked ready for some action.

The Pro hero team struck a pose and exclaimed in unison. "We're the Wild, Wild, Pussycats!"

A woman with teal hair, large eyes, and small yellow irises smiled at them with hyperactive energy. "I'm Ragdoll! My Quirk is called "Search"! I can monitor up to a hundred people and pick out their location and weak points!"

Mandalay grinned. "I'll use my "Telepathy" to instruct and advise multiple people at once."

"I'll be using my "Earth Flow" to create training grounds fit for each of you respectively!" Pixie-Bob added.

The last of the Pussycats- and the only male amongst them- clenched his paw-like gloves with a dangerous smile on his face. "I'm Tiger…I will be in charge of kicking, punching, and other…violent services…"

That was a little terrifying for a good majority of the students. But not for Byleth. When Mandalay and Pixie-Bob saw Bakugou, they shivered in fear. They have not forgotten Byleth's rage. Byleth smirked in her spirit form, telling Katsuki they have the pussycats in the palm of their hands. Katsuki smirked back; the damm cats would not do any shit while they were there.

"I told you this was gonna be hard," Aizawa grinned widely. "Like I said, kids: Try not to die."

And the spartan training of hell has begun.

Everyone was focusing on a specific training for their quirk like Ochako was floating herself in the air and spinning around until she was sick, but even after vomiting twice already she had to remain afloat. Also on the list of ill-looking individuals was Aoyama, who had already fired off his laser so much that his stomach was killing him, but there was no stopping.

Sado was at a table intaking copious amounts of sugar from soda, cake, and other desserts while lifting heavy weights at the same time to increase the time limit and power of his Sugar Rush Quirk. Yaoyorozu was at the same table and basically wasn't allowed to stop eating at all- she had to keep up the amount of fats in her body and immediately use her Quirk to create objects as fast as she could. Both of them looked ready to throw up at any second, but forced themselves to continue.

Itsuka, Ibara and Reiko were startling, speechless, at the bizarre scene before them. Iida was running with a winged horse, which he calls her Tenma, beside him as if they were betting a race. They were running at an insane speed! Pony, their classmate, decided to run along with them to increase her speed and strength on her legs.

"I thought the images were fake when I saw them in my twitter account. Iida really has a winged horse." Says Itsuka in wonder. "That thing is fast even in the ground."

"Iida-san is lucky to have a pegasus as his partner. The divine horse of gods." whispered Ibara, amazed. " It is no wonder people are calling Iida-san the new Bellerophon."

"Eer... Ibara-chan, that's just a horse with a wing quirk. it is not a real pegasus." commented Reiko.

"And how do you explain the beast of darkness over there?"

The girls glazed at the other bizarre scene before them. Kirishima and Tetsutetsu fight against Minerva. The duo had to endure all the wyvern's attacks. Minerva was hitting their hardening quirks with her tail and enlarged talons respectively until they were bleeding and bruised.

"A reptile with a mutation quirk?" Reiko said awkwardly; she could not understand things around her anymore. Everything became really weird since Class 1A got the new foreigners students which none knew of their existence until the day of the Sports Festival.

Itsuka was looking around, she noticed Monoma was not around. Vlad mentioned he was getting special training with someone else from 1A class. Usually she was the one who dealt with Monona and his nonsense. Itsuka wondered who bothered enough to help him.

"Once more!"

Monoma strikes against a hanging dummy at certain points. Lucina has offered herself to help Monoma on his lack of fighting skills. Lucina mentions to Vlad that Monona depends too much on his quirk and the teacher of Class 1B agrees and allows Lucina to help the loudmouth blond.

"Why are we doing this again?" Monoma moans, feeling pain on his muscles " shouldn't I focus on my quirk instead?"

"From what I could see of your performance at the sports festival, I admit your quirk is a very interesting one, however you depend on it too much. You lack fighting skills. What if the quirk you copied backfired at you? That's why I am helping you."

"Why?" Monona asks, growing at her "You think we, the Class 1B, are weak and we need help?"

"What's wrong with asking help to improve yourselves?" she asks, naturally. "Asking help is not a weakness, it is a way to become stronger."

Monona blinked by surprise. Lucina just smiled and told him to not let his quirk control everything in his life. Training in other skills is also good for the hero carrier..

"There's something that's been bothering me for a while; how come you're so strong when you have no quirk at all?" Monoma asked, upseat and confused. "When you touched me to guide me where to hit the dummy, I did not feel any quirk in you. How? How can a quirkless girl like you be so strong? So strong that people are calling you Dragon Slayer."

Lucina knew Monoma would be the one to find out that she, technically, was quirkless thanks to the nature of his quirk. But unlike her past life, unlike when she was Izuku, she would not let the lack of a quirk control her life again. Lucina asked Monoma to sit down on a fallen tree trunk.

"Let me tell you a story about a boy who had dreams but his life was slayed because he was quirkless."

Then, she started to tell the story of the quirkless boy. On the day he was diagnosed quirkless, everyone turned their back on him. His best friend became his worst bully, his mother not encouraging him with his other skills, crying and apologizing for not giving him a quirk and the world turning into blind eye when the boy was being abused by his former friend, using illegally their quirk on him.

"One day he just snapped and killed himself. When I heard this story, I made up my mind that I will not let my lack of a quirk control my life like how it did to the boy of the story. I would become strong and not relying on a quirk to be a hero. Your quirk is interesting Sir Monoma, but angerying the enemy for you to copy their quirk will only get you killed one of these days. Your quirk will be stronger if you know some body combat. I am helping you because you're not weak but you have a lot of potential. I think if you do not rely on your quirk too much, you will be a better hero. Many people see professor Aizawa weak but he defeated many villains because they rely too much on their quirks and Aizawa uses his quirk in full potential because he knows how to fight. Do you see what I mean, Sir Monoma?"

Monoma was quiet after hearing the whole story. He did not know why but for some reason the quirkless boy's story seemed to be familiar to him. Where did he hear this story before? Monona agreed when Lucina said Aizawa could use his quirk in pull potential because he knew how to fight. Then, he remembered his own childhood; many people told him he could not be a hero with a weak quirk like his. He was actually happy that someone finally told him he, indeed, had potential to be a pro hero.

"Oh I am happy that one member of the Class 1A finally sees the true power of Class 1B, hahahah! And the best part I am the one you recognize my true potential ah ah ah ...OUCH!"

Lucina hit one of his weak points. Poor Monoma fell to the ground, paralyzed.

"This is why you have to learn how to fight and learn to be more humble, Sir Monoma." she smiled sweaty but a bit annoyed.

Then, they heard a noise of a branch being crushed. Lucina turned her head and saw the red hood wolf- girl and the horned cap boy hiding behind the trees

"Hello you two." Lucina waved to the children. "I think we have not introduced each other yet. I am Lucina Ylisse and this one here is Sir Monoma Neito."

"I…" muttered the girl shily.

"Don't talk to them, Okami-chan!" Growled the boy " They're not worth our time."

"But Kota-niisan…"

"Ah, so your names are Okami-chan and Kota-kun." Lucina smiles " Nice to meet you two."

The boy, Kota, looked annoyed while the girl, Okami, looked a bit nervous. Monona warned Lucina to be careful with the boy because he gave a punch on Vlad's nuts when they arrived at the camp yesterday. Lucina looked imprisoned.

"You really did that? Wow, that's amazing, Kota-kun. You must be strong if you could do that to an adult like Professor Vlad ." Lucina smiles while holding Kota's hand.

Kota was deeply blushing in a deep red color. He slapped Lucina's hands away while crying out and running off. Okami was speechless; it was the first time her cousin reacted like this.

"So, why were you two here?" Lucina looked at the small wolf girl.

Okami explained she was Madalay's daughter and Kota's cousin. She wanted to see how the UA was training their students. She was also curious about everyone's quirks.

"It is really true you're quirkless and yet you're strong?" the little girl asks with some hope in her eyes. "Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you but I heard the story you have told to Monoma-san a minute ago. Does that mean I can be strong without using my quirk?"

Lucina was surprised, even when the little girl showed she had a mutation- type quirk, her look reminded her of the time when she was Izuku, the same look Izuku had when he asked All Might if he could be a hero without a quirk before his suicide. But the girl had a quirk. Did this mean she did not like her quirk? She needed to know.

"You don't like your quirk, do you?" she asks, curious.

Okami's fluffy years were down while looking sad. She told them that she became a feral beast on a full moon night and she really hurt her mother badly. She felt very bad for what happened to her and she was afraid for Kota's safety if she went feral again.

"It is not your fault, Okami-chan. Sometimes quirks can get out of control when young users like you do not know how to control it. You did not mean to hurt your mother." she says while placing her hand on her shoulder. "How about this; you help me to carry Sir Monoma and I will see what I can do to help you?

"Really? Okami's eyes widened in hope.

Her tail wagged happily while helping Lucina to carry Monona. Lucina was surprised to see Okami was very strong for someone so young like her. While being carried, Monona was a bit confused: the little girl had wolf features but he did not feel a presence of a quirk inside her.

At night they were all in the hot springs, relaxing. Noire moaned they were in paradise. Lucina had to agree with her friend; the warm water was making their sore muscles relax. The girls from Classes 1A and 1B were also happy in the hot spring. Ibara was concerned about the sinner of lust trying to see their moment of peace.

"Sinner of lust?" Kyoka asked, a bit confused. What was she talking about?

"Are you talking about Mineta, Kero?" Tsuyu asked.

Ibara nodded to her.

"Ah, you do not have to worry about him." Lucina says, smiling " Gerome and Laurent are on the male side of the hot spring. They will make sure to protect our dignity."

At the other side Laurent used his ice magic to freeze Mineta solid while he and Gerome were relaxing in the hot spring along with everyone else from class 1A and 1B. Everyone from class 1B started at them, confused and speechless.

"Don't you think your friends went too far on the little guy?" Rin, a boy from class 1B, asked to Yarne

"Maybe a little, but they did this for a noble cause. You don´t know Mineta like we do." answered the bunny boy while eating a piece of carrot. " Believe me, this is for the best."

While the girls were relaxing, Mandalay entered the female side of the baths. The girls welcome the leader of the pussy girls. Momo thanked the older hero for the hard work while Itsuka nodded, agreeing with Momo. Mandalay sighted in relief when she sat down in the hot spring with the girls.

"Mandalay-sensei, if you do not mind what happened to your back?" Pony asked in concern. Mandalay's back had a lot of scars. "Were you attacked by a demon?"

Everybody looked confused? Demon? Then, Reiko asked if she meant to say a bear? Since she must be mistaking bear ( Kuma) for demon ( Akuma) .Pony exclaimed and nodded to her.

Lucina looked at the scars. She remembered Okami mentioning she once lost control in her quirk once and she hurt her mother very badly.

"Pony! You should not ask this type of question!" Itsuka scolded the american girl. Then, she bowed to the pro hero, while forcing Pony to bow as well. " I am so sorry, Mandalay-San! Pony is still learning our language and costumes!"

"No, it is ok. These scars were not caused by a bear or a demon. It was caused by my daughter, Okami. It was not her fault, she just lost control in her quirk." Mandalay says to the girls while looking at her scars.

The girls fell silent. They were surprised to see such a sweet girl like Okaimi doing something to hurt her mother badly. Lucina told her Okami had mentioned the incident to her. Mandalay was now surprise.

"Sh- She opened up to you?" Mandalay asked in surprise.

Lucina has a bad feeling

"Y-Yeah?"

"Waah… Thank you so much!" Madalay cried out while hugging Lucina. Lucina blushed, very embarrassed. It was so awkward being hugged by a naked woman. THe other girls only stared at them, awkwardly. " My baby always blamed herself for hurting me! Please, I would be very , but very happy if you continue to be my baby girl's friend!" she kept crying a waterfall of tears.

Lucina sweatdrop; this is so awkward….

End of the chapter.

And that's chapter 20! And the first update of the year! I hope you guys had a good holliday and a good new year. And I also hope you have enjoyed the chapter as much as I did.

Nothing much happens, just a little interaction between the classes 1A and 1B. And I admit Monoma is one of my favorite characters from the class 1B. You can expect you will see him more in this story.

And Byleth is a monster to the teachers. Since she was a teacher herself from Fire Emblem 3 houses, of course she would be not pleased with the crap Aizawa is putting everyone in. Vlad still has to feel her wrath yet.

Please, do not forget to leave your reviews, comments and kudos. They make me write more and more.

Suggestions are also welcome. ;D

PS: I really need a beta writer. If anyone knows a good beta writer, please send me a message. I really need help with my english.
