A/N: Hey guys! Thanks so much for all the follows, favorites and reviews! Sorry for making you guys wait so long for an update, I was caught up in school stuff (We're about to graduate so it's busier).

Response to readers:

GUIPA and LanceSennin: Thank you for the pairing suggestions, will consider them!

Totem-Mimikyu: Thanks also for the review, I'll keep that in mind.

Anyways, enjoy chapter five!

Izuku looked in wonder at his new sensei. The man had black hair and eyes and his face was square. He was sturdily built, and a feature that stood out was a long, thin scar that stretched from his cheekbone to his chin. Despite being fairly plain-looking, the fiery determination burning bright in his eyes inspired awe in others. "I am going to be your teacher for the rest of the time you spend in this dojo. You may call me Takahashi-sensei. I look forward to teaching you all some good martial arts!" Takahashi-sensei grinned. He's so cool! Izuku was starry-eyed.

"All right, everyone! Let's start with some introductions to break the ice, shall we? Everybody can introduce their names and interests, okay?" "Okay!" Everyone said. "I'm Yuki Fuyuro," A boy with white hair and blue eyes went first. "My hobby's ice skating." A girl with brown hair and orange eyes raised her hand. "I'm Kazan Yogan! I LOVE making models!" A lime-haired boy with brown eyes piped up. "Shizen Kusa, gardening." Kids introduced their names and hobbies one by one, some of them including their quirks.

"I'm Bakugo Katsuki, and I don't have any interests or whatever. My quirk's explosion, and I'm gonna surpass All Might and become the number one fucking hero!" Katsu boasted. Typical of him, Izuku thought. "That's a nice goal to aim for, Bakugo-kun! But remember, everything starts with small steps, so let's break this down into smaller goals and focus on learning martial arts for now!" Takahashi-sensei advised. He's really nice! Izuku raised his hand and said shyly, "I-I'm Izuku Midoriya, and I like to analyze quirks."

"Alright, now everyone's got an idea of who's who, let's get started!" Takahashi-sensei showed them a simple stance for defense and told them to practice it while he walked around correcting their stances. He walked over to Izuku, took a good look, and told him, "Your stance's not bad, just keep your legs a little more apart." Izuku tries moving his legs slightly more apart. "Like this?" "Yep!" Takashi-sensei replied.

For the next hour, they spent their time practicing the stance and an offensive stance Takahashi-sensei showed them. It was exhausting work and by the time the hour was over, their arms were on the verge of falling off. There was a collective groan when the man cheerfully announced there was 'only' another hour left. After teaching them how to throw a punch, Takahashi-sensei mercifully gave them a break.

Bakugo sighed as he sat down next to Deku and hand-girl, all three of them soaked with sweat. He emptied his limited edition All Might water bottle in one huge gulp. "I feel like shit," he groaned, rubbing his aching muscles. Even though he didn't want to admit it, the exercises were hard as fuck. Well, if I just sit around, I can't expect to just suddenly surpass All Might, can I? Strength came from hard work.

"All right, kiddos! Break's over! We're gonna have a fun time learning even more martial arts!"

Somebody at the far side of the dojo screamed, "NOOOOOOO!"

The children gathered around Takahashi in a circle, all looking disheveled and weary. Takahashi-sensei was seemingly unaware of the poor kids' pain and said, "IT'S SPARRING TIME!"

I can't believe I have to go up against Katsu, Izuku thought. He shifted into a defensive stance, getting ready to block his best friend's attacks. Said explosive blonde was standing opposite to him, a confident grin on his face as he took an offensive stance. Takahashi-sensei's voice sounded next to them. "You guys can start sparring once I tell you! I'll walk around taking a good look at your sparring and give you advice later on! Get in your stances! Annnnd... Start... NOW!" Immediately, Izuku braced himself as Katsu pounced towards him. This is gonna be hard!

A bit later...

"God, that was fucking exhausting. I can't believe we're going there every Saturday," Katsu groaned. Well, I can't blame him. Both of the boys were drenched in sweat and exhaustedly trudging home. They were absolutely drained of energy and had bruises covering their body. Still, the bruises were more of their own fault. They had been a bit too... "Enthusiastic" in the sparring matches, or how Izuku had explained to a very panicked and teary Inko.

"Still, I'm happy we made friends with Kendo-san!"

"Not 'we', 'I'. I'm not friends with the hand girl," Bakugo grunted. Katsu's such a tsundere, Izuku thought amusedly. "Still, this lesson was really helpful!"

"Tch, whatever."

Even though he didn't like to admit it, Bakugo was impressed by both hand girl and Deku. While Deku went off for a toilet break, Bakugo had decided to take a look at all the shitty extras nearby. He'd spotted hand girl casually flipping her opponent around. Hand girl was pretty damn good, and so was Deku. He was all wimpy, too scared to go offensive, but the damn nerd managed to last quite a bit against Bakugo. Still, obviously, he was the best compared to everyone else, with his perfect quirk and amazing skills.

"Wanna go for some ice cream?" Bakugo was snapped out of his thoughts by Auntie Inko's gentle voice. "You guys worked really hard today."

"Yeah!" Deku squealed with excitement. Too bright...

Bakugo shrugged. "Sure. Why not?"

"Okay then! We're gonna get ice cream! Let's go!"

Bakugo couldn't help but let a small smile creep up his face. "Wait for me!" he yelled, running towards them.

A/N: Whew! Finally done! If you liked this chapter, consider following and favoriting, I would love it if you did. If you have any suggestions (especially on pairings I have no idea which one to choose ToT) or constructive criticism, please tell me in the reviews! See you next time!
