Heroics training time!
Date: September 26
Time: 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM
Location: Class 1-A room/Heroes-in-training gymnasium, U.A. High
Class 1-A, All Might, and Snipe POV
Izuku and Uraraka walked together at the hallway for them to go back to class. They did small casual talks about everything, high school, life outside of school, quirks, and others. Izuku is not that type of a chit-chatter as he just listened to her with a smile and few casual nods. It's like the first time he made a true friend since he came back to school to continue his education and to think he made friends with a girl. Sure, he made acquaintances and connections with other members of League of Villains during his stay, but never experienced true friendship back then, well, except for his two trusted people in his former organization: Dabi and Toga. He sometimes missed them and asked himself if they're still connected with their boss, despite his failed offer to them in order to join his own goals to cleanse the community.
The two made few laughs upon exchanging pun and corny jokes and upon entering the classroom, the brunette waved to him and separated to return her seat.
"It was nice talking to you, Deku. Nice to meet you again and I hope we could have another chat after class~"
He let out a soft smile before waving back. "Y-Yeah...thanks again and also for the cupcake. I've appreciated it."
Some of the students gave a stare at the two, especially the boys with a curious look on their faces.
"D-Did he...just talk to a girl? To think it's his first day at U.A?" The yellow-haired blinked twice while observing the two.
"Not just a girl, you silly. I think he made friends with our girl Uraraka~. Who couldn't resist her charming personality and appearance?" Sero grinned.
"Well, there's nothing wrong with making friends. Like, come on, it's a normal thing to do in school especially if it's your first day~!" The pink-skinned Mina giggled. "They exchanged smiles together and for me, I think they'd have cute chemistry.. Hihihi~"
Kirishima let out a hush towards her. "Shhh~! Enough man. Our boy Bakubro looks a tad bit jealous..." He pointed at the ash blonde.
"Call me 'jealous' or I'd rip your head off, you shitty hair!" Katsuki saw them with a blush and gritted teeth before looking away.
"Geez, chill out, bro!" Eijiro pouted.
"Who's 'jealous'?" Izuku finally sat down on his seat before glancing at his seatmate, Kacchan.
"Oh, there you are Midoriya~! I think your childhood friend is kinda jea-" He got interrupted when Bakugo covered his lips using one hand and later on used his explosion quirk on him.
"I SAID SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
Kirishima used his hardening quirk from the mini explosions and answered with a gibber. "D-Damn, s-sorry bro~!"
Izuku let out a soft chuckle and shook his head before getting his notebook from his backpack. "Hey, Kacchan?"
The ash blond grunted. "Hmm…? What is it?"
He opened his notebook as he started to write something on his notebook, probably writing quirk analysis. "Thanks again for being there with me earlier. I feel a bit better now. There may be people who are making me unwelcomed, but I'm happy many of your classmates are defending me despite everything. I guess I have to endure this for now. Still better than staying in a detention facility though~"
Katsuki observed him for a moment as he shook his head before looking away. "Tch…I'm doing this for you as a friend. Who knows, four-eyes or other shitheads will again beat you up—"
"Friends? Or more than 'friends'?" He raised an eyebrow at him and grinned to tease the shit outta him.
He gasped and looked again to him with a blush on his face. He did not respond.
"You know, with the offer I gave to you earlier back at the comfort room, I'm actually looking forward it~"
He lowered his head on the desk before covering his deep blush it with his arms, mumbling. "Whatever you're planning, you're still the nerd I know….I won't let down my guard neither."
"I'm still the nerd, but leveled up~" He added with a chuckle.
Far away from their seats, the four-eyed Iida observed the two with a frown look on his face after what he did to the newcomer classmate earlier. He then later glanced at Uraraka and asked. "Have you already gave him the cupcake I requested to you?"
The brunette nodded with a smile. "Yep. He told me he already forgave you when we talked in the cafeteria. He has no hard feelings to you at all."
He looked down on his desk and let out a sad smile. "Good to know. Now, I feel so ashamed of myself when I made him unwelcomed in our class until now."
"What you did is unacceptable, but I wish you could talk to him soon. I don't like it when some of our classmates are having a little feud on everything."
"I-I'll think about it." He sighed.

Fast forward
The students went back to their seats when they heard the famous heroic lines outside of their room: "It's fine now. Why? Because I am here~!". The sliding door got slammed as the current number one hero and teacher All Might entered the room with his signature smile on his face and buff body. He greeted them and told to prepare for another Heroics training at the gymnasium. He then looked around the class and found the green-haired Midoriya before walking towards his seat with a smile.
"I'm glad that you're here and accepted the conditions by three parties. We're looking forward to work with you, Young Midoriya. Again, welcome to U.A. High. You're in a few steps for you to be able to reach the redemption you've always wanted." He offered him a big hug.
Izuku stood up and looking all hesitant upon the offer for a hug, considering his spark and infatuation with him had faded away like dust. But when he watched the news about him finally disclosing his health to the public by a written statement, he felt a bit satisfied with his honesty, but he wanted more. He wanted him to show to the public his skinny state without the One For All power.
With his overthinking inside his head, he shook his head before giving him a hug All Might wanted for. "Yeah…Good to see you again, Sir All Might.."
And so, All Might told his students to prepare their hero suitcases as they're about to transfer to the Heroics gymnasium…more like an obstacle course.
Ten minutes had passed from transferring to another location, students went to their locker rooms to change themselves with hero costumes. Izuku, on the other hand finally opened his suitcase for his 'hero' costume. The first thing that comes to his mind was that, why is he even attending to the hero course as he still couldn't sink in inside his head. He still has doubts about becoming a hero, considering he had many crimes he committed in the past and now the school wanted him to be a future pro-hero?
While the boys were finished changing outfits and about to leave the room, he hasn't decided if he wanted to wear this costume his father made it for him. The costume almost looked like he wore during the Forest Training Incident.
Katsuki, now wearing his hero costume walked towards him and placed his hand on other's shoulder. "Are you gonna stare your costume all day or what?" He raised an eyebrow.
Izuku's eyes widened in surprise upon feeling the other's hand on his shoulder and glanced to him. "O-Oh…it's you, Kacchan… I-I don't know…I'm not ready for this. You've already known my crimes back then and now they want me to be a hero?"
"Deku…I know it wasn't your fault as you were only following orders with the All For One person and the one that you killed someone at the forest, he had it coming! Come on, Deku~! We've all made mistakes and they're all learning opportunities for us to become a better person. Stop thinking about the past and think about our future with our goals! I know you got this, you nerd!"
He sat on the bench while holding the costume before letting out a sigh. "Give me time to ponder. You go with the others, I'll catch you up later."
"B-But Deku.." He frowned.
He closed his eyes, trying to keep himself cool despite the pressure. "Kacchan, please…"
"Tch…fine. But you'd better hurry~!" He huffed and walked out of the room to leave Izuku in peace.

All Might gathered his students in one place and checked the attendance one-by-one. Upon being called by their names, they raised their one hand each and once the hero mentioned the last name on the list which is Izuku Midoriya, he called his name once more before looking around his students.
"Anyone of you has seen Young Midoriya? It's almost time for our training." He scratched his head using one hand.
The ash blonde was about to raise his hand when he and the rest of his classmates heard the familiar voice behind them.
Izuku raised his hand. "Sorry, I'm late. I did my meditation before going out of the room." He wore a long black coat, a white polo shirt with a black necktie and black vest. Black trousers, leather boots, black military gloves. His dual pistols, three magazines, and three flashbangs made by support department were attached on his belt.
The students looked amazed at his 'hero' costume and made compliments to him. Katsuki gazed at him and let out blush on his cheeks on how amazing he looked with his costume on. "Damn, Deku. You look so fine as fuck—"
"Izuku looks handsome with that costume~!" Uraraka giggled with a blush.
"Your costume looks manlier, bro!" Eijiro commented.
"It looks a bit expensive to me. Where did you make your costume?" Momo's eyes sparkled, considering she's one of the wealthiest students in the class.
He chuckled a bit upon hearing compliments. "W-Well uhh…my father made it for me. N-No, wait…everything I saw on my costume is all signature branded from high-end shops in Ginza and I'm really disappointed."
"EEEEEHHHHH?!" The students gasped especially the class vice president.
"What? I didn't even want him to buy expensive as I want everything simple. I guess that's his way of showing his support towards me."
After some talks and compliments, All Might told his students to have their own solo training in a big obstacle course. They could have a sparring partner to make a friendly fight and showcase their quirks or may do it solo and master their quirks with practice artificial intelligence bots and dummies around the area.
Some students went on separate training with their chosen partners while some decided to have their own way of improving their skills. Katsuki wanted Izuku to be his sparring partner, but the green-haired refused as he wanted this opportunity to train himself alone. Before leaving him, he said his words to him. "We could have our sparring session next time, but not right now. I'm sorry, Kacchan~!"
In the middle of the training and half an hour had passed, All Might could finally saw improvements with his students by checking on them one-by-one. Izuku, in an isolated location, far away from them started shooting dummies and AI bots as fast and accurate as he can using his dual pistols with his marksman quirk as he wanted to make his record to beat dozens of them in less than a minute for each round. Multiple bots were marked by him to make sure they won't be missed by the bullets he gave to them. Behind him was another teacher and pro-hero of U.A. who had been observing his performance since he started his solo training: Mr. Snipe. He wrote some important notes on the folder and made glances to him.
Once all the bots were shot down on the ground, Izuku panted a bit as blue and red essences were glowing and shown on his hand pulses respectively.
"H-How was it, Sir Snipe?"
"Precision is the difference between a mercenary and a soldier. Almost all of the bots were shot in the head." He masked man let out a soft chuckle. "I guess the rumors about you were true, that you're not easy to fight with. I'm impressed with your style and how you aim and shoot them with perfect accuracy. However…."
"What is it?" He raised an eyebrow and sat down on a boulder before drinking a bottle of water.
"You get tired easily without using your blue pulse to activate your true Marksman quirk to empower your abilities. I think that's the side effects of your rehabilitation back from the hospital and you didn't have much training afterward. Seems like the corruption inside you had already cast out."
"Yeah, I noticed this myself, sir. The rehab changed me after all." He looked at his hands and sighed.
The hero nodded. "What if there was a situation where you really need to use your blue pulse to activate your true marksman quirk but the blue essence wasn't glowing enough to fill in your pulse? You're a great Marksman, I know, but we all have a room for improvement and you really need to work on that."
"Got it, sir. Before I attended the school, my father and I had gone training, but it focused more of my other side of the quirk which is the demonic quirk. Apparently, dad gave me analysis regarding my quirks and it contains advice and tips on how I should improve myself during training."
"Good for you. You have a father to help you gain your rhythm back. But overall, you did a pretty good job handling bots around you. You will have a separate training regarding your demonic quirk with All Might and Aizawa. You may check your night schedule online as they've already sent the updated ones. For now, go back to your group while I submit this performance report to your teacher."
He nodded as both of them left together at the area.
The class' training had ended as the students gathered up looking a bit tired from sparring and solo training with their quirks. All Might applauded their performance and gave them words of encouragement for them to work and train hard to become a future pro-hero. The green-haired couldn't relate a half of it, but thanked for the good advice he gave to the rest of the students.
"Is this really how a hero school works? Too much positivity, if I do say so myself…" He thought to himself.
All Might approached him with a smile and said. "Your trainer Mr. Snipe was impressed during your marksman training and you did a great job back there. Keep up the good work, Young Midoriya."
He rubbed his temples and smiled a bit. "Thank you, sir."
Uraraka approached him with a smile. "While I was doing my gravity quirk, I heard multiple shots in your area and I thought back then you shot too many dummies~! I wish I could see that, Deku."
"I almost ran out of bullets though and now I need to request for a refill at the support department." He chuckled a bit.
Katsuki walked towards him with gritted teeth. "Oi, Deku!"
Izuku excused himself from the brunette as he glanced at the ash blond. "Oh, it's you. S-Sorry about earlier."
"I'm still fucking pissed you refused me for a sparring session, you damn nerd!" He crossed his arms with a blush.
He grinned and teased. "Just wait. We'll have our own 'sparring' session this coming Friday, eh?"
"The fuck are you saying?!" He let out a furious blush.
He blinked. "Don't you want a quirk analysis coming from a nerd? You sure are thinking different lately."
"Tch…shut it!"
All Might talked to his students before glancing at Midoriya. "I've already seen everyone with their quirks and it keeps improving which I'm very happy with it. How about we let our new student showcase his other quirk aside from the Marksman, hmm? Have you controlled it with full power, Young Midoriya?" He smiled.
He walked towards his teacher and later faced his classmates with a nervous look. "My father and I had some training twice before I attended this school. I still haven't achieved the full power as I don't want again to hurt anyone…but I could show you guys my partial form…if you want. It is highly recommended if you all back away."
All Might nodded as ordered his students to get back. The homeroom teacher, Aizawa arrived a bit late and approached his fellow colleague. "Did I make it in time?"
"You're just in time, Eraserhead~" The buffed hero grinned.
The red-haired glanced at his best friend. "This would be my second time to see his creepy quirk, bro. Are you really sure you want to pursue him with all you might?"
"Tch…just watch and observe, you shitty hair.." He muttered.
The rest of the students waited for him to prepare his quirk with curious faces especially Shoto and Iida, wanting to see again how powerful his quirk is.
His hand pulse on his right pulse was glowing bright red as he made his defensive stance and closed his eyes, whispering words trying to talk his inner demonic spirit.
"I learned from a young age to embrace the shadows."
"Darkness is a start" The inner demon had woken up from his slumber and answered.
"I am no toy, Izuku."
"You possess the hubris of more fearsome power. Now, you must follow me."
"There is much darkness around you, in you."
"That is my armor."
"I can still see your nightmares even if you got out of the hospital, do they trouble you?"
"Not nightmares, only memories..."
"I was forged to destroy mankind, but now tamed by you and your father." The spirit chuckled. "I guess I have no choice then…"
Everyone witnessed the thin red smoke around him and exchanged words, asking questions if his quirk is now controllable. Aizawa quickly wrote something on his notepad regarding his first impression on him and the quirk.
Veins on his hands, neck, and face started to grow and glow in scarlet as he finally opened his eyes and turned his contacts into fiery red as the smoke surrounds him and looked at everyone before letting out words in a different low tone which sounded like a demon.
"T-This is the 25% power of my quirk. I inherited this hidden ability coming from my father and we are the only two surviving members of the clan who still have this kind of power. And it's called…. the World Ender…"
Some students back away a bit more upon looking at their classmate's form, but some were still amazed at witnessing his power, started to finally recognize his power.
"D-Deku….You're one hell of a demon.." He looked astonished while observing his lover.
Author's Note: Up next is the ongoing interview of Izuku by the detective and also Shoto, wanting to talk to Izuku about his family as he's been craving for answers after his father's confession on national television, how will he react?
