I just tuned it out until Uraraka called Momo, Deku, Iida, Todoroki, Kirishima and I outside. To my surprise waiting for us was a teary eyed Tsu. "What is this about?" Iida asked.
Tsu explained how she felt horrible about saying that we would be acting just like villains. "I'm so sorry Is aid those things, you just... wanted to help, to be heroes and I said that, and if you had gotten hurt."
"Tsu, it's alright." I said.
"No it isn't. I tried to discourage you from doing it, and had I done that, Bakugo, and maybe even Astero would be dead." She started to cry and the other hugged her. "And after you told... us about your people... that you were trying to be better than them." She said directed at me. "You are trying you best to be a hero. And I said that." I relented and pulled the frog girl into a hug.
"Tsu, it's fine, I don't see my self as a Hero. I am a Saiyan warrior of Earth, and you can't guess or think of what might have been. I could have stayed and helped my people fight, but then I would have just died along with the rest of my people. I could have just been another Saiyan brute. But we can't whine and pine about what could have been." I held her as she cried into my shoulder, feeling quite awkward as the others hugged us. "We'll both be Heroes... one day."
Chapter 67: Breaking Limits
I sparred with Deku, our Ki aura's clashed and so did our blows. I had a smile and so did he. "You are getting better with your quirk." I smiled.
"And you are getting stronger." He smiled back as he threw a right hook only for me to dodge around it in a spin and got my arm around his neck and pinned my arm around him cutting of his air flow. He tapped out and we powered down flying down to the ground. "You are such a better fighter then me."
"Well you still have to develop your own style, I had my whole life minus the last four years to refine my own basic style and skills." I said. "Remember that fighting is as natural to me as breathing."
He shook his head as he gave a chuckle. "That is more then obvious."
We landed at the training center and stepped inside where everyone was training. The various platforms had our class mates, Aizawa and Ectoplasm looked over our class mates when the turned to look at us, having beaten each other up. "Done with your sparing?" Aizawa asked.
"For today." Deku said as he pulled at his Saiyan armor. "Just need to work somethings out."
"I suggest you ask the support course for help." Ectoplasm said. "You shouldn't underestimate the help the could provide."
"Oh, yeah use weapons." I said thinking of certain female Saiyan with twin swords. 'Romne is rather unique in that regard. Most Saiyans just blast and strike out with our fists and kicks.'
"More of capture items. But yes weapons." Aizawa corrected for my rather blunt point.
I looked around and noticed that a certain short stack was missing. "Where's Astero?" I asked.
"He doesn't really benefit from training or taking damage like you. His true strength is in his technology. He recognizes that he has a low potential so he compensated. So he did his strength training and then went to refine his gear." Aizawa explained.
After we got cleaned up and our training time was done, and had a taunt thrown at us by Monoma. Deku, Iida and Uraraka and I made our way to the support course workshop. I looked at the heavily fortified door reaching for it but before I could grab the handle it exploded throwing the steel door out the window. Flames and smoke filled my lungs as I used a gust of wind from my Ki aura to blow it all away. Laying on the ground with a large bump on his head was Astero, but on top of him was a pink haired support course student. "The hell was that?" He blinked his eyes open as he moved his hand to remove his soot covered scouter. "What is on..." His eyes bulged when he looked at the support student's... form.
"Oh, who are you?" She asked, her cross aired eyes looked his over.
"Oh... uh... I'm Astero... the new Hero Course student." He looked away as Mei got off of him.
"I'm Hatsume, Support course. Well time to get back to my babies." She rushed back into the still burning lab that Power Loader was extinguishing.
We got into the lab and on the half burning table she was working away on the latest of her projects, "Power Loader, we are looking for help with our support items." Uraraka said.
"Well it's best that you talk with Hatsume, you are going to be working with people like her for the years to come. They have the ability to make slight changes to Hero costumes. Unlike a certain tailed father figure." Power Loader glared at me. "That caused so much paper work."
I let out a awkward chuckle before I turned to Hatsume. Then I stopped and thought of my father, and his harbinger skill, and by extent the Super Saiyan he had and my own Ikari from, all just increased power in my body. And again my thoughts turned to Romne and her blades. Blades. Weapon. That's it! "Can you make me a sword?" I asked.
"Why would you need a sword? It's like me punching my opponents." Iida asked.
"Think about it, if she can focus her power into a smaller point it'll be more effective, it can be a trump card in a particular hard battle." Astero said, and my thoughts turned again to the other Saiyans, they still had their tails and as such use of the Ozaru forms. I would need a way to cut them off should they attack again.
Hatsume looked me up and down. "You have a energy based, strength enhancing quirk. One or two handed?" She asked.
"I think that having the ability to use it with both options is the best choice, so that I can blast with my off hand with out too much worry." I said. She nodded.
"Well... I don't have anything like that..." She said but Power Loader cut her off.
"We will have a few options for you in a few days." he said.
"Thank you." Then the others went through what they wanted, Iida had rockets strapped to his arms to run with them... and Deku... oh my sweet Deku.
"I have Legs." I held my head.
"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked as I tried not to laugh.
"I have done so much damage to my arms that I can't just keep on breaking them. And my legs are no where as damaged as my arms." He explained, "I can still use them but now I use the sturdier option.
"Exactly, you get cornered you start kicking." Hatsume said as Astero just let out a laugh.
"You had me there Midoriya." He laughed. "But what's after that? Your head?" I just rolled my eyes at this. But we all did eventually laugh at this. "Also, Uraraka? Your helmet face mask, what is it used for?" He asked.
"Oh, it's a face guard, and it helps with my motion sickness when I use my quirk on myself. Why are you asking?" She asked.
"Well I was thinking I could add some scouter functionality to it, your helmet as well Iida. Having a heads up display is a lot of help." He explained. "Finding civilians, surveying for villains, and scouting out hostage situations for the greatest threats."
I agreed with his points... but I also knew how he got these ideas. But I kept that to myself. "Yeah, that would help a lot."
I still didn't trust him, but he hadn't tried anything... at least. But so far he hadn't been as much of a issue as I thought he would. But for now I sighed and walked out as the other brainstormed ideas, Hatsume and Astero working side by side. "I'll be getting some lunch, I'll catch up later." I waved to the others and kissed Deku o the cheek.
Hey there. New chapter once again.
