A/N: Sorry that I reposted this, but I wanted to make sure everyone read this considering this site had issues for many.
Izuku had entered 1-A expecting the day to go by as normal, with normal classes; that might have been too much to ask of a hero school. The morning taught the students regular subjects like math and English; they were followed by an hour for lunch. All food had been served by Lunchrush and was rather cheap for the quality of the food. Izuku had fanboyed over every hero he saw, but they did not prepare him for the class directly after lunch.
"I'm coming through the door like a normal person!" All Might exclaimed. Every student had begun talking about how cool it was that he was a teacher after they saw the number one hero posing in the doorway. All Might walked like he had been posing for pictures, stopping halfway through each step.
"Hey! That's his silver age costume!"
"I can't believe All Might's really a teacher here! This is so awesome!" All Might had stopped in front of the podium before he struck another pose to show off his muscles.
"The class I teach is to help raise your hero foundations through various trials. Let's jump right into one, right now!" All Might had begun to write on the blackboard before he revealed that it said, Heroes versus Villains: Battle Trial A!
'A trial of... battle,' Izuku thought, 'I didn't think that I would have to...' Izuku had felt a depressing helplessness bubble up in his gut. His Quirk was nothing special, and he believed it would not help him with villains; even if they were his classmates, he saw their Quirks yesterday after all. Suddenly, the wall to Izuku's left began to rumble before sections of it moved closer to him.
"Lucky for us, we just received the costumes you sent in plans for," All Might said, "Grab your battle gear and meet me at Ground Beta. Quickly now!" Most of the boys had grabbed their costumes and left already, while everyone else went at a slower pace that was faster than Izuku.
Izuku had sighed as he stood from his desk slowly. He took the last suitcase that had eighteen on it and made his way out of the classroom. Izuku had wanted to let his mom make the costume, but he needed special gloves to use his Quirk more effectively. Bandages lasted only for so long, and the entrance exam showed how little abuse they could take.
"Come on, Midoriya, we don't want to be left behind," Uraraka said. Izuku had jumped out of his skin, not expecting her to still be around. His face grew warm as Uraraka stepped closer with a cute smile on her face. Izuku had chuckled nervously as he took a step back.
"R-Right! Let's walk together!"
"That's why I was waiting, silly." Izuku had felt his heart flutter as Uraraka fell in step with him. As a child, his only friend was Katsuki. Izuku could have made more friends, but the explosive blonde had scared them off. It did not help that Katsuki ditched him in middle school, after deciding that Izuku was too much of a pebble for his liking or something like that.
Izuku had looked in a mirror before he left the changing room, and smiled. He liked his costume, though he might need to get it sized up a tad. It was a dark green heavy jumpsuit that was designed to last during a battle, an additional feature was the fire-resistance. Since Telekinetic Spark dealt with fire, Izuku and his mother wanted the fabric to resist the flames as much as possible; though it could still catch on fire if he was not careful.
The rest of Izuku's outfit had been made mostly with the same material, except his shoes. His red shoes were carried over from his regular clothes, and they matched the belt that carried medicals supplies along with water bottles. The most prominent feature of his costume was the black padded gloves that were missing the thumb covers and had rough strips on the middle and index fingers. Izuku had placed the last piece of his costume on, a metal respirator as he left the room.
Izuku had run to the group of his classmates once he realized he was the last to arrive. He noticed the varieties of costumes, and could not help but think some were weird. Todoroki's costume had looked rather odd, Yaoyorozu's was too revealing, and what was up with the short ball-head's outfit. As Izuku's eyes drifted from classmate to classmate, he noticed Uraraka.
"H-hey Uraraka, I like your costume!" She had blushed at the compliment but looked nervous as well. Her eyes looked elsewhere for a moment before she looked back at Izuku.
"Yeah, it is nice..." Uraraka said, "But they made it a bit too tight, which may have been my fault for forgetting to specify not to do so."
"Sensei, are we using the mock-city from the entrance exams?" Iida said. Izuku had wondered where he was, but his guess was not in the full suit of armour.
'He looks pretty cool,' Izuku thought, 'I wonder how it relates to his Quirk.' Before he could have begun to mutter to himself, All Might spoke up.
"Actually, young man, this is an indoor battle trial. We saw what you could achieve when you had no limits in the entrance exams, besides the kids that got in on recommendations. Now we need to see how well you perform inside."
All Might had stopped to check his thoughts before he continued, "Usually you see fights out in the open, but a larger chunk is indoors. Most crimes are actually committed indoors, and not many of them move outdoors; if they're smart, they don't." All Might made the last part barely audible, but some students had heard regardless.
"Now, I'll separate you into teams of two: villains and heroes. This will be a two-on-two indoor battle trial."
"How is this foundational?"
"How are wins and losses determined?"
"Can I just blow them into the next prefect?"
"Are you gonna threaten us with expulsion like Aizawa-Sensei?"
"Readers guess who!"
"I can't understand you guys!" All Might said, "Please speak one at a time!" Izuku's classmates had repeated their questions one after the other; which allowed All Might to answer them and explain the trail they would be doing.
It had seemed like a simple task that seemed similar to those old American superhero movies that were popular well over a hundred years ago before Quirks came about. The faux villains had threatened to blow up the city with a nuclear weapon, and the faux heroes have to stop them. There was a set time-limit to this, if it ended the villains won. If heroes captured the bomb or either team tied up the other, that group won.
"Now please come up and draw a lettered ball!" The students lined up and drew either red or blue ping pong balls that had a letter from A to J on it.
"The first groups to go are... Hero Group A and Villain Team B!"
The battle had started relatively simple with Sero and Jiro entering the building and checking the location of the villains. It seemed neither were on the first floor, but that meant nothing with Hagakure as their opponent; she could sneak up on them anytime Jiro was not surveying.
The heroes had arrived on the second floor harmlessly. Nothing happened until they neared the stairs to reach the third floor. A barrage of purple balls had begun to fly at them. Sero jumped into actions shortly after a couple stuck to their hero costumes.
"Stand back, I got this!" Sero had placed himself in front of Jiro before he launched tape at the sticky-spheres. They clung to each other before they stuck to the wall. Once the coast was clear, they had seen a yellow cape round the corner.
Jiro had jabbed her earphone jack into the wall and listened for Mineta. It sounded like he was waiting for them at the top of the stairwell. That had prevented the duo from using those stairs. Sero and Jiro quietly walked out of ear range before they ran to the stairs on the other side of the building. Sadly, that was the only opportunity they had gotten for the rest of the battle.
Hagakure had been protecting the fake bomb and used her Quirk effectively with Mineta's. In the end, the villains won by a slim margin. How their plan had succeeded while Mineta stopped for pervy thoughts was a mystery to all.
A brief discussion happened after the two groups arrived in the viewing room. Each student said what they thought, then All Might gave his expert opinion on what to improve. Afterwards, he drew two more balls that revealed Teams D and H were next.
Katsuki and Iida had waited outside the building while the 'villains' set up their 'bomb'. Despite Iida's best efforts, Katsuki did not want anything to do with his plan. There had been no reason in Katsuki's mind that screamed he needed to have any sort of plan. Which in all fairness, was only true in his mind.
The horn had blared, which prompted Katsuki to blast his way into the building. The doors clanged on the floor inside. Iida had yelled at Katsuki as he jogged to catch up to him, but he could tell the warning fell on deaf ears as the more doors exploded open.
The second floor had several holes melted through the wood. Katsuki blasted himself across, while Iida needed to use his Quirk to run through various halls to catch up. It had been to no avail though since the exploder 'flew' through the openings in the ceiling. It was a tactic that had been easy to guess, and it seemed like the villains did not think it through.
The stalling had only succeeded in bringing Katsuki to them quicker. The battle ended quickly in the Heros favour. That had been thanks to Iida finally arriving on the scene. It did not stop Katsuki from blasting Mina and Ojiro into a wall.
Momo had scolded Katsuki for that once the peer review rolled around. She then praised Iida for his smart thinking that prevented the bomb from exploding. Katsuki clenched his fists in anger, he had done more than that stupid four eyes, yet he got all the praise. Izuku noticed almost immediately that his friend was angry, but he had to bribe him to leave.
Izuku had led Katsuki to a nearby empty room in the observation building. It was also far enough away that nobody would hear yelling, just in case. Izuku had observed Katsuki as he leaned against a wall. Anger seemed to seep into the peaceful atmosphere of the room.
"Don't let what Yaoyorozu comment get to you, even if she was right. Our classmates aren't-"
"I know that! But, we are heroes-in-training! Real heroes take damage like that all the time, they would be lucky if they survive in a real fight." Izuku had felt a chill at that statement as if it was foreshadowing something.
"Kaa-chan.."
"Bakugo! Midoriya!" Uraraka called, "All Might wants you both to get back for the next battle!" Izuku had glanced at Katsuki before he opened the door.
"Alright, I'm coming. He'll be with us shortly," Izuku said as he gestured to Katsuki. Uraraka had nodded before she followed him back to the observation room.
Izuku and Uraraka had entered as the buzzer sounded for the match to start. It appeared that Aoyama and Momo were trying to find the dastardly scoundrels that were Todoroki and Tokoyami. Izuku had a feeling the villains were going to win this match, not that he would tell anybody else that. It felt rude, but he knew how good Todoroki's quirk was.
"I wonder how well they are going to do against Todoroki's team," Asui said. Izuku and a few other students had looked in her direction.
"If I can be honest," Izuku said, "Probably not the best." There had been a few nods and words of agreement.
"Keep your chins up!" All Might said, "Let's see if they can overcome this challenge." Izuku had to agree with him, all they could do was try and they were trying as they spoke.
A/N: I randomized these matches, but Iida and Katsuki are still partners XD. They are destined to be! All kidding aside, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. The last three battles will be in the next chapter, cause I am having trouble getting the remaining battles written.
