Summary: Bryant completes the test for Aizawa as well as makes enemies unintentionally. He gets closer to some real friends, unlocks more forms and is now in the thick of the Battle Trial.
Don't forget to let me know what you think of the story so far. Also, let me know if you have any guesses.
Aizawa bring the students over to a table and gives a guy with about 6 webbed arms a device. He explains, "This will test your grips strengths. It measures in Kg. You go first Shoji". Using one of his many arms, the device registers 540Kgs, to Aizawa's indifference, "You pass. Next". He seems to only give it to students with strength related powers. He finally gives Bryant the tiny box, "Do you have a form for strength quirks"? He nods, "I've got just the thing". He turns into the four armed alien and takes the device, "I think I'll call this guy 'Warrior'. And yes, I've got this teach". He starts to crush it with all his might, but then he hears a crunch and opens up his palm, "Oops". The device broke, "Sorry teach, it was an accident. But does that mean I passed"? He facepalms, "*sigh*, yes, you passed". The next test is a standing long jump and only a couple manage to impress Aizawa; the pretty boy and the spiky haired hothead. Bryant, still as Warrior, is given the go ahead, "Let's hope this guy's a jumper", he mutters to himself. Sure enough, he clears the sandbox put in front of him in a single bound. "Nice! Hey teach, I did it"! Without even a congratulations, Aizawa brings them to the next test. A simple ball throw; everyone but Izuku and Bryant had gone. He hands it to Allen first to his surprise, "Impress me", he says. He uses his left top arm and winds it up, "Give me a home run red guy". Tossing the ball it clears the entire field and even smashes through one of the walls to Aizawa's regret, "Did I do that"? Shoto just goes over and gives Izuku a spare ball. But before he can throw the ball, the teacher uses his own power, some kind of nullifying stare, and talks to Izuku about how to properly use his power here. Midoriya literally get a .1 boost in his score over the spiky haired kid, which pisses him off something fierce. "Three tests left", Aizawa announces. Next it a simple sit up contest. Getting onto a mat as hard as a rock, Bryant and the others, at the same time for a change, begin doing their best, some even using partners like Izuku and the blush girl. Not needing a partner to hold his legs, Bryant just starts and within like 5 minutes is still going, while everyone just watches. "304, 305, 306, 307…". Aizawa stops him, "Okay, that's enough. You pass. Now follow me". On the way over to the wall he turns back, his watch recharging for the next part, a toe touch. He is disappointed himself, "So after all of that, the semi last test is a toe touch"? Sitting down next to the wall he transforms into Integrator, "Um teach? Does it still count if I can touch my stubs"? Aizawa just says, "Yes". The test is as simple as that, stretching his elastic arms to the toeless feet. Bringing all of them back outside, the final test is a long distance run. "it's simple, just run the length of the field. Think all of you can handle this"? Everyone but him says in unison, "Yes Mr. Aizawa". With the click of the watch, Bryant turns into the fast lizard he decides to call 'Blue Lightning'. It takes him under 5 seconds and he's back, "Hey teach, how was that"? Shoto responds as happy as always, "Fine. Just wait for the others". He just takes a seat and presses the watch on his chest to turn back early, as he did with the small guy, "Well, I could've done better with Blue Lightning but, eh". Tenya Iida comes back in 2nd naturally. When everyone returns finds Momo coming over, "I'd say you aced this whole thing. Congratulations". He takes her hand and stands ups, "Thanks, means a lot. But it's not official until Mr. Killjoy says so". He announces everyone in order, "Bryant Allen, Momo Yaoyorozu, Katsuki Bakugo, Tenya Iida…". He then says Izuku's name last, "You all passed, and even some of you", he looks at Izuku, "Have at least some potential". Bryant goes over to him, "So that's it? Now what"? He glares at him, "Now, you resume the normal school day". Heading back to class he had the most boring day of his life, finally ending up in the cafeteria, waiting in line as a living utensil was handing out food, "Oh my GOD, I wish I was still doing those tests for Aizawa. When I went here I wasn't expecting to still be doing, Japanese, English, calculus, science and social studies still".
Walking Towards a table, the spiky haired guy, Katsuki, trips him. Byrant drops his lunch, "Damn it"! Bakugo just acts like nothing happened, "What's the deal man"?! He just keeps eating until he grabs him on the shoulder, "I'm talking to you". 'Mutagen acquired, alien form unlocked', the watch adds. Katsuki turns around with his same resting bitch face, "Think you're better than us just because you got all those quirks, huh? Think you're better than me"? Bryant frowns, "I'm just trying to eat here". Momo comes over, "Get over it Bakugo. Just because he outdid you during the test doesn't give you the right to pick on him, or anyone else for that matter. Besides, Todoroki has multiple quirks too". He turns his attention to her, "All this coming from the girl who got 2nd place? Whatever, I'm just gonna go eat somewhere else". He shoves Bryant on the way out, "What an asshole. Someone outta slug him". Momo adds, "Most people won't stick up to him because they're afraid of his quirk. Besides, it's not worth getting in trouble over". He goes to walk away himself until she offers, "Listen, I usually pack my own lunches and, well I have some leftovers. Would you like some"? He shakes his head, "Nah, it's yours. I'll just grab something from the vending machine that's hopefully not all green tea in a bottle". She hands him a sandwich, "Here, just take it. We all need to eat something". He reluctantly does, "Thanks, Momo". She smiles, "Sure thing". Heading over to an empty table he checks the watch, "Let's see what that douchebag gave me, hopefully something good". A silhouette of a humanoid with a head with a flower budded kind of tip on top shows up. Finally reaching the last class of the day, Foundational Hero Studies, he gets a little excited as he reads the sign, "Now this sounds more of like what I was expecting". Heading in he is very surprised to see the top hero in Japan, Toshinori Yagi, All Might himself. He goes over, "You're the teacher of this class"? He speaks in his signature voice, "Why yes young Allen. Fitting is it not"? He asks, "How the Hell did you know my name"? He responds, "I read the list". He chuckles, "Ha, yeah, makes sense. Anyways it's nice to meet you". He smiles, "And you as well. Now please, have a seat. Class with be session in just a minute". Everyone comes in including Momo sitting next to him as assigned; he waves. All Might puts his hands together, "All right students, so here's the deal. You will all head over to the Development Studio to create your own outfits as heroes. Given most of you will outgrow them, this will be more or less a prototype of whatever you want your design to be. As for myself, I've gone through at least 3 outfits in my career. Now remember, be imaginative". Heading into the studio, each person is given their own place to develop a costume. Looking around rather than sewing, he sees how some people's outfits are coming along. Some look practical, some look absolutely ridiculous, and other are both. The horned girl comes up with a domino mask, soleless sneakers but also an absolutely ugly green and pink patterned dress. Meanwhile Izuku's is an homage to All Might, even including the Heihachi brows on the costume. While the blush girl looks like an astronaut almost, fitting her power. Momo's is literally revealing, with a big hole in the chest and her breasts all but hanging out. Tsuyu goes over to him, wearing goggles and a green wetsuit, "How are you doing on an outfit Bryant"? He shrugs, "I don't sew. I mean I could go the lazy route like some of these guys and just grab a jacket for all I know. I honestly don't care about an outfit". Tsuyu tries to help, "Well, the reason for outfits is to appeal to people later on during our careers. It doesn't have to be flashy but at least think of something". She grabs a leather jacket, "Like how about this"? He shakes his head, "I'm no biker. I appreciate the help but, let me think". A half an hour passes and everyone returns to class with the outfits, except Allen. All Might heads over, "Young Allen, where's your outfit"? He responds truthfully, "I just didn't want one. I mean, really a hero is still a hero whether they dress up or not, right"? All Might surprisingly smiles, "You've got spirit kid, I respect that. To be fair, I feel you might be right about that. If you don't want one then it's okay with me. Now please, have a seat". Yagi gets ready to spill the beans, "Now, the reason I asked you all to craft your outfits is to act as a prelude of sorts. For this first class of FHS, I need you to follow me". He leads them all to a place called Ground Beta, which looks almost identical to the Entrance Exam area. "Alright students. For this 'Battle Trial', you will be split up into teams of two. One pair of villains and one pair of heroes. Most villains are inside so it's natural these three building behind me be chosen to simulate it. It's simple, the heroes must reach a 'payload' before the timer or 15 minutes is up. Disable it, you win. Defeat the heroes, you win. As for the villains, if the timer is up then they win, and the same thing goes for if they defeat the heroes. Any questions"? No one says anything, "Alright then. Now, you three, pick a ticket out of this box and see who your partners will be". Bryant pulls one, 'Tsuyu Asui'. He heads over to her, "Guess we're partners". She seems okay with it, "Sounds good". Three villains then pick, Momo picking out one, "Ugh...Mineta". She goes over and he is elated, in all his lispy perversions, "Ooh, me and the beautiful Yaoyorozu. We'll be unstoppable". She shoves him for being so close, "Don't invade my personal space. We're partners, that's it". Finally All Might decides the teams paired, "Bryant Allen and Tsuyu Asui vs Momo Yaoyorozu and Minoru Mineta". Bryant's expression goes blank, "Wait, what"? All Might continues as all first teams are decided, "Alright villains, you are given 5 minutes to prepare". Momo looks back also seeming a little regretful as her and Mineta head in.
"Damn it, I hoping it'd be Bakugo, or at least anyone but you or Momo". Tsuyu touches her chin, "Well don't sweat it Allen, it's just a trial". He turns to her, "Yeah but, I only have to options, I either have to disable whatever this 'payload' is or beat her up. So far, her and you have been the only people nice to me". She assures him, "I know Yaoyorozu, she won't take it personally". Once the 5 minutes are up, they head into the building together. "It sure is quiet in here". Tsuyu agrees, "Well, it's a good tactic. Maybe they're on the top floor". Bryant then steps on a purple ball that stick to him, "Shit, I stepped in something". His foot is stuck, "Hm, looks like Mineta's hair", Tsuyu tells him. "Gross". Pressing the button on his watch he goes to choose an alien, "Okay, I think I could use brain over brawn here". He turns into the little guy, also freeing himself from the hair. Tsuyu looks around, "Bryant"? He shouts, "Down here". She does, "Pick me up. Let's head to the top floor". She stretches her tongue, grabbing her with it then putting him on her shoulder, "I have to admit, that's an arousing tonuge you got there Suu". She responds, "That's what Mineta tells me". He regrets saying that, "Sorry". She doesn't seem to care, "Doesn't bother me. But Mineta does". Bryant shouts as Tsuyu is about to step forward, now on the second floor, "Wait"! He points down at some nearly invisible snares on the ground, "Momo must've made those. Think you can do something about them"? Tsuyu nods. She uses her tongue and tosses a couple of loose stones from the walls at the snares, making them activate, "Good catch". Bryants thanks her, "You know, I'll call this little guy 'Intellectual'. Sounds fitting to me". Eventually they reach the top floor and hide behind some pillars, seeing Momo and Mineta waiting and arguing too. "Come on babe, just think about it. You as my sidekick and me as Grapejuice. We'd make a great team someday. Heck, a power couple too". She rolls her eyes, "You can't even keep your eyes off of another girl for 30 seconds. What makes you think I would even go on a date with you. I mean, at least people like Shoto and Bryant are polite". Bryant looks to Tsuyu and whispers, "Okay, I need you to press the hourglass symbol on my back so I can turn into something else. Got it"? She does, "Okay". Unfortunately Momo and Mineta see the flash of light. "Bout time, I was hoping to use my powers for more than just traps", exclaims Mineta. Tsuyu goes after Momo, "Okay, I guess I'll take the purple people eater". He turns into the dinosaur he got from Ryuko, "*roar*! Bring it tiny". Mineta tosses his hair at his feet, sticking him to the floor fairly quickly, so he turns back, "Okay fine, if 'Recks' can't take you head on, time to get serious". He turns into the humanoid with a bear trap mouth he got from Yuga. His skin becomes metal and his hands grow claws. A large horn grows out the top of his head and most importantly his mouth becomes a huge bear trap, "Now let's see what this guy does". He suddenly feels a hunger, for metal. Taking his claws he rips out a piece of metal lining some of the columns and on instinct bites down on it, "*crunch*, crush, gulp, Mmm, good". Mineta tosses a ball at him and suddenly his horn blasts a green laser, destroying the hair ball. "I think I'll call this one, 'Crusher'. stomach rumbles, Ooh, need some more". He takes another chomp of metal after ripping it off, blasting Mineta more. He tosses another hair ball his way and his mouth just hinges open. He starts chewing the ball like bubblegum, "Gross, grape flavored. Aw well". Ripping off just a little more of his hair, his head starting to bleed, Minoru shouts in his microscopic glory, "Sticky Fist"! He puts the balls on his fist like brass knuckles and runs towards Bryant. But with a simple blast finally hitting him, the little dwarf is sent into a column, out for the count. Meanwhile, Tsuyu is smacking Momo with her tongue and even crawling on the walls, avoiding the slingshot loaded with metal sheet balls. Eventually Momo pulls out a grenade, a flash bang. Tossing it at Tsuyu she is disoriented and can't see. Sticking her tongue she tries to swat Momo while blinded but she create a big patch of fly paper, holding it out in front of her. With Tsuyu's tongue stuck, she pulls her in and knocks her unconscious with a baseball bat, "Sorry Asui, I hope it didn't hurt too much". She then sets her sites to Bryant, "Just the two of us now". He presses the watch, turning back with just a little juice left before recharge, "Indeed". She shakes her head, "You know I really don't want to do this, but it's part of the test". He understands, "I get it. In fact I don't want to hurt you at all. But I guess I can at least get past you to disable the thing". Holding up his watch he looks at one he hasn't used; the one he got from her, a humanoid with simply three trident shaped spikes coming out of his head. Pressing down the faceplate his head gains the spikes, his facial features vanishing like some kind of mannequin and most unique his skin transforms into an outline of blackness with stars showing through his transparent chest, legs and arms. Momo notices he hasn't moved, "Are you alright Bryant"? He awakens to find himself face to face with two theater masks, 'sock and buskin', one male, one female. His mouth is open wide with confusion, "What's happening"? The mask on the right, the smiling female one responds to him, "I am Happiness, it is nice to meet you". The other one, the tragedy male frowning mask speaks as well, "I am Sorrow". Bryant shakes his head, "But...who are you? Where am I"? 'Happiness' as she calls herself, explain, "We are you. I am your happiness and love". The 'Sorrow' mask responds as well, "I am your sadness and hate". 'Happiness' continues, "This alien you have become requires you to make up your mind, all three of us together". He still doesn't get it, "So what makes this one so special". She goes on, "This alien is basically a God. Anything you can imagine, WILL happen. But the problem being, it is such a powerful form, that there is one restriction, us". He scratches his head, "So, if you're me. How do you know all of this"? She giggles, "We are as much a part of you as we are of the form. The form is us, the form is you. You are us, we are you". Allen gets to the point, "So what do I do to get out of this? Or even to use this form"? She answers, "It's simple really. You convince us...yourself, that you can use it and then you'll never hear from us again, free reign of this form. As long as you can agree". He indulges her, "Okay, what do 'you' want"? She giggles again, "I'm already convinced. I want heroism. Your loving side is the dominant side, whether Sorrow admits it or not. I know you'll make good on such. It's him you need to convince". Bryant turns his attention to the tragedy mask, "Alright, what do you want"? 'Sorrow' moves closer to his face, "I want vengeance. Destruction! Not in the villainous way, but if someone wrongs us. Use your powers for good when you must, but also use them for justice and vindication. Do you understand"? Bryant agrees, "I think I can do that. I've never been a 'holier than thou' type, but I'm no villain either". They come closer to him and speak in unison, "Promise us". He nods his head, "I promise". Happiness smiles, "Then it is agreed on. Whenever you choose this form from now on, you'll never see us again. Go ahead and use this 'Seraph' for kindness and justice".
