(All Might stands triumphantly with light being shone upon him.)
Hijou kaidan de tsume wo kamu asu wa docchi da? THE DAY HAS COME
(Then, Star Saber appears behind him. All Might turns around to see him.)
(When the guitar solo goes in, it cuts to individual shots of the students of Class 1-C.)
Keshite akenai yoru mo furitsuzukete yamanai ame mo
(Class 1-A are having fun together, all walking together towards U.A.)
Kono roku demo nai sekai ni wa arunda yo
(Class 1-A then stops as they were faced with a group of students, Class 1-C, who were walking in from the other direction.)
Sukoshi mo hen de wa nai no madoromi ni ashi wo torareteru
(The background fades to white, leaving both classes in a white void.)
Anata wo semeteiru wake ja nainda yo
(Class 1-A looks on at Class 1-C, with Class 1-C doing the same at Class 1-A.)
Hitori kuusou ni asobu soko de omoi egaita koto made hajiru no kai?
(Daisuke steps forward slowly. He then flips out his DiEnd Blaster and fires off a shot. The screen flashes at he fires the shot.)
Karamiau meikyuu meikyuu soredemo yuku to iu no?
(Star Saber and Eraserhead look at each other and then down below, where Classes 1-A & 1-C were fighting.)
Chiisaki tabibito ga kanaderu hajimari no kane no ne
(Class 1-A just charges in with Bakugo taking the lead.)
Yukuate mo DON'T KNOW DON'T KNOW hontou wa kowai'n ja nai no?
(Sakura jumps into air smiling, Akira puts his arms on fire, Takeru spits into XXR an XXL, Ryotarou slashes with his sword downward, Sento shakes his two Full-Bottles, Fumiko spins her tires on her arms, Jin lunges out like an animal with his arms out.)
Fumidasu sono ippo ippo ga kaete yukeru sa THE DAY HAS COME
(Daisuke stands up, and fires several blasts.)
(As the song ends, the other classmates pose: Miku poses with a baton in her hand with Kusaka holding his Kaixa Phone in Blaster mode; Rei and Ginko stand tall with their hands on their hips; Misao gets into a fighting position with Sora floating beside him; Hiromu twirls a small quill in his hands with Kuroto doing some kind of zombie pose beside him; Tsurugi looks back with his tail right next to his face and his back facing the screen with Shotaro rubbing his hands; Kasumi puts her blades across her face with Akaza towering behind her.)
(To finish off, the whole class picture with Star Saber.)
Next up, Mina and Kirishima were walking into the grounds.
"Alright, so Tsuyu's team got a tie… but Ojiro's lost…" Kirishima wondered.
"What are you wondering about?" Mina asked. "These matchups are at random!"
"Hey, you can never be too careful!" Kirishima griped.
The two went back and forth for a while. From the monitor room, it was also very obvious that they were arguing.
"Those two have been arguing a lot lately." Sero commented. "I'm surprised they're not a thing."
The whole class got a good chuckle at that. However, Uraraka slightly tilted her head to Deku, who was busily studying the screens.
Back on the grounds, Kirishima and Mina have put their little argument aside and went along the streets. The opponents haven't revealed themselves yet by the looks of it.
"Huh…" Kirishima muttered. "It's kind of quiet…"
"Yeah…" Mina agreed. "Too quiet…"
They kept on walking until something went squish under Mina's feet. They both looked down and saw some kind of goo was stuck on Mina's shoes. It was orangish in color, but it is slightly yellowish green on the inside.
"What is this?" Kirishima asked.
"I don't know…" Mina replied.
"Well, can you move?" Kirishima asked.
Mina tried to move her feet, but it wouldn't budge. She even used her acid on it, but the goo didn't even alter at all.
"C'mon! Seriously?" She whined.
Just then, something zoomed past right behind them. Kirishima turned around to see who it was. But no one was there. Then, the same thing happened behind them, but this time, Mina had taken a glimpse.
"Eijirou!" She called.
"What is it?" Kirishima replied.
Mina pointed in front of her. Kirishima quickly turned around and saw a boy about his age, but slightly shorter. He was in a turquoise costume, and was wearing roller blades by the looks of it.
"Hi there." He said.
Kirishima quickly hardened his arms, and prepared for attack. He quickly outstretched his arms to his sides, and then charged. He quickly pulled his arm back for a punch, but the boy began to skate forward. Then, from the sides of his neck, two frills extended out and opened up alongside his face. He then jumped, and used Kirishima's head as a launch pad. He then flipped around and then breathed in. He then spitted out the same goo that Mina's foot is stuck on. The goo landed on Kirishima's fist as he slammed it to the ground. Kirishima saw the boy land gently back on the ground. However, when he tried to move, he couldn't get his arm.
"What the heck…?" He exclaimed.
He saw that his hand was now stuck to the ground with the same type of goo that was stuck on Mina's feet. The boy then skated over.
"Stuck?" He asked teasingly.
Shotarou Shijima! Quirk: Glue!
He can spit out adhesive glue from his mouth that can withstand immense force! However, if he spits out too much at once, his neck can get clogged!
Shotarou scooted around Kirishima. The latter was still busying trying to get the glue off of his hand.
"Give it up, man." He called. "You're never getting that glue off."
Just then, a rock hurled over Kirishima's head and towards Shotarou. Luckily, Shotarou swerved backwards just in time for the rock to smash the ground in front of him. Kirishima looked back and saw that Mina, still with the glue on her shoe, was limping over to him.
"Does this count?" She called.
Shotarou smirked, and then darted forward. Mina thought quickly, and used her Acid near Kirishima's hand, allowing him to lift his arm up. Kirishima looked at the rock that his hand was glued to, and then saw Shotarou still darting toward him. He then ran forward and slammed the rock down on the ground between them and Shotarou. The ground shattered into several pieces, making Shotarou jump. As the ground rose up, Shotarou jumped from piece to piece, until he had a clear shot at Kirishima. He tilted his head back, and got ready to fire another shot of glue. Just then, Mina jumped up and used Kirishima to propel herself into the air. She then landed a punch right onto the side of Shotarou's face, causing him to slightly swallow his glue. They landed back on the ground, Shotarou fell to his knees. He coughed harshly and loudly, trying to get glue out of his throat. Kirishima saw his chance. He ran forward, and then kicked just after hardening his feet. Shotarou fell back, and then was knocked out. He drooled glue as he passed out on the rubble.
"I got him!" Kirishima shouted.
"We did it!" Mina cheered.
The two cheered for a bit, but then they were interrupted by someone who hurried over to Shotarou's side.
"Shotarou!" He called.
Kirishima and Mina saw another boy, who was just floating over Shotarou's body. He was panicking, but when he saw Mina and Kirishima, he quickly raised his fists.
"Who's this guy?" Mina asked.
"Looks like the guy's partner." Kirishima replied.
But he didn't seem to be that formidable. He was visibly shaking, as his legs and arms were quivering. This was even more obvious from the monitor room.
"Well, would you look at that." Bakugou commented. "We got ourselves a pipsqueak!"
"Huh…" Kaminari wondered. "How did a guy like him get in?"
Kirishima didn't seem to ask the question, as he just punched what's left of Shotarou's glue off of his hand.
"Okay…" Mina spoke up. "You want to take this one?"
"My pleasure!" Kirishima smiled.
He then crossed his arms, hardening them in the process. He then walked over to him slowly. The boy then realized his situation, and then began to whimper.
"W-w-wait!" He started. "We can talk this out, right?"
"M-m-my name is Ryotarou, and I don't want to fight!" He pleaded. "Please! Please! Stay back!"
Kirishima cracked his neck.
"Look, man." He admitted. "I don't want to hurt you either! But it's this or something more unpleasant!"
Ryotarou finally fell on his bum, and then cowered up to a wall. He then covered his head with his arms.
"This is going to hurt, man!" Kirishima warned.
He then raised his arms to go for a ground-slam. He then slammed his arms down, but then the arms stopped. Kirishima was taken back, and then he saw who caught his arms. Ryotarou had his hands around his wrists. He then split them apart, and slowly stood up.
"Nice try, pal…" Ryotarou said in a different tone of voice. "But you're not hurting Ryotarou on my watch!"
Then, with his arms flung to his sides, Kirishima was punched in the face really hard that he was flung right into Mina's body. They were both thrown into a wall, but they recovered quickly.
"What the hell was that?!" Mina shouted.
Kirishima rubbed the back of his head, and then looked at Ryotarou. Something had changed. During their first meet, he had black eyes with flat black hair. And his armor was just plain black. Now, he had red eyes with spiky red hair. The armor has red chest plate with white shoulder armor. Ryotarou rotated his shoulder, and then smiled madly.
"Ore…" "Ryotarou" then said. "Sanjou!"
Ryotarou Nogami! Quirk: Imagin!
It's basically Multiple Personality Disorder, only difference being that the personalities bring different fortes to a fight! He has six personalities at that!
This red one is named Momon! And he is really feisty!
Momon smiled. He then reached to his sides. He grabbed two pieces of equipment and attached them together. He then tossed it into the air and grabbed the other two pieces remaining on his sides.
"Let me tell ya this, bozo!" Momon called. "I start from the climax!"
The piece then fell to his face and then he attached the two pieces with it. Then, a blade extended out of the top. He was now holding a sword.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go!" He chanted as he began to move forward.
Kirishima got up and then approached Momon. He went for a punch, but Momon dodged, and just slashed his torso. He then kicked him off, and slashed him one more time. Kirishima stumbled, but Momon used his sword to basically spank him.
"What's wrong?" He teased. "That all you got, spike-head?"
Finally, Momon finally kicked him the back and then he fell face first into a wall. Kirishima then grabbed the sides of the wall, and tried to pull himself out.
Mina was just watching the whole thing, but now she saw an opening. She quickly secreted some Acid to her hands. She threw several blobs, and they landed on Momon's body. It burned, so Momon reacted properly.
"Owowowowow!" He panicked as he jumped up and down.
Once the Acid calmed down, Momon looked at the direction from where the Acid came from. He then found Mina.
"Alright…" He chuckled, looking at Kirishima. "I'll deal with you later!"
Momon took one step toward towards Mina, but then he stopped.
Something changed. From his red eyes and spiky red hair, they changed. The eyes turned blue, and the hair calmed down and flowed down the back of his head. The hair color also became blue. The armor also changed. From the red, the color became blue, and the shoulder arm extended down to cover his entire upper arm.
"Oh boy…" "Momon" sighed. "Sempai really doesn't know how to hold back does he?"
This blue one is called Urako! He is the womanizer that can hook any girl!
"Omae…" Urako then said seductively. "Boku ni tsuraretemiru?"
He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of glasses. He put them on, and split the sword back into four pieces. He held one piece in his hand, and threw the rest up. They all attached on top of themselves. The weapon that used to be a sword was now a staff.
Urako raised his glasses, and then slowly approached Mina. She quickly responded by throwing some of her acid at him. But Urako side-stepped, as the acid landed on the ground.
He then darted towards her body. Mina couldn't react quickly, as she got kicked in the stomach. She stumbled back, but Urako did not let up. He swung the staff around, landing hits on Mina. And to finish, he swiped the staff downward, making Mina jump, but then he twirled around and landed roundhouse back kick. Mina fell back, and looked at Urako.
"Well then." He smiled. "Time to reel you in."
He reached to his pocket again, and pulled out a train-pass of some kind. He swiped it on the reader that resided on the bottom of the staff.
FULL CHARGE.
He tossed the staff up so that he was now holding it upside down, and then he tossed it at Mina. She dodged it, but Urako moved in. He jumped up, and then went for a flying side kick. The kick tore through Mina, knocking her out.
"Oh boy." Urako chuckled, looking back. "Too much?"
"Okay, what is going on?!" Mineta asked in the monitor room. "One minute he was fighting Kirishima, and now he just defeated Ashido?"
"On top of that, his fighting style seem to switch." Momo commented. "Look, his hair and eyes are different."
"What kind of Quirk does he have?" Deku asked.
Just then, Kirishima pulled his head out of the wall he was stuck to. He saw that Urako had just defeated Mina.
"Ashido!" He cried.
He began to run over, but Urako didn't make a move. Just as Kirishima reached Mina, Urako smirked.
"I guess I should apologize." He said.
"For what?" Kirishima asked.
"For beating your… associate." Urako chuckled.
Kirishima looked at Urako, and then at Mina.
"H-hey, hey!" He quickly responded. "It's not like that."
Just then, Urako changed. His blue eyes became yellow. His calm blue hair turned yellow, and suddenly became a ponytail. The armor also changed. The color changed from blue to yellow, and the armor on the upper arms folded into the main body. The armor actually became sleeveless.
"Enough talk!" "Urako" suddenly declared. "Let's do this! Man-to-man!"
Kirishima just got more confused.
"Okay, dude!" He called. "What's with the costume change? Pick one and stick with it!"
"Urako" then cracked his neck with only his thumb.
This one is called Kin-Chan! He is as tough as Kirishima! And I mean tough!
"Ore no tsuyosai ni, omae ga naita!" Kin-Chan announced, grabbing some tissues from his pocket. "Namide wa kore de fuitoke!"
He then tossed the tissues to Kirishima's feet. He got excited, and quickly hardened his arms.
"Who's crying!" He shouted as he went for a running punch.
The punch landed on the torso, but it was hard. Kirishima shook his hand from the pain, but Kin-Chan landed a palm strike on his chest, which basically launched him into the same wall that he got his head stuck in. It was a TKO.
"Seriuosly?!" Kin-Chan griped. "It was just one, one¸ palm strike!"
Just then, the alarms blared. It signaled that the match was over. Kin-Chan sighed, and just slowly walked away to pick up Shotarou.
'Hey, Kuma!' Momon's voice called in his head. 'Where are you going?'
"The match is over, Momonoji!" Kin-Chan replied. "I have to get Shotarou!"
'Kin-Chan…' Ryotarou's voice whispered. 'Can I have my body back now?'
Kin-Chan nodded, and quickly left to give Ryotarou his body back. His hair went back to its original style and color, as well as his eyes, which all colors were of black. Ryotarou quickly ran off to get Shotarou.
Back in the monitor room, all everybody was talking about was Ryotarou.
"What's up with that guy's Quirk?" Sato asked. "I mean, aside from the new looks he always gets."
"I think it's MPD." Todoroki replied.
Everyone quickly turned to him. Todoroki was standing still.
"What do you mean?" Sero asked.
"Multiple Personality Disorder." Todoroki explained. "But I've never seen this type of Quirk though."
After that, he turned around.
"Hey, where are you going?" Ojiro asked.
"Yaoyorozu, Mezo, and I are up next." Todoroki replied. "Let's go, you two."
The two students perked up and quickly followed Todoroki to the field. Meanwhile, Deku was just taking in Todoroki's theory on Ryotarou's Quirk. He muttered out loud, making everybody step away from him a bit.
Back on the grounds, Ryotarou was dragging Shotarou across the ground. But he had something on his mind.
'At least it was just those three…" He thought to himself. 'The others would've been more of a hassle.'
Inside Ryotarou's brain, the personalities have set up quite a space. It is shaped like a traditional café, and the manifestations were just relaxing.
"Damn!" Momon whined, slamming his table. "I would've wiped the floor with that spiky-head!"
"Sempai." Urako chimed in. "I think you've caused enough embarrassment to him."
"Oh yeah?" Momon said, standing up to Urako's face. "Then you were playing around with Pinky, huh?"
"Now, now." Kin-Chan interrupted, breaking the two apart. "At least we had a good workout."
"You guys did!" griped a childish voice. "We just stuck to the side!"
Momon, Urako, and Kin-Chan looked behind them and saw who the voice belonged to. It was another personality of Ryotarou, but this one had purple eyes and purple hair, with a punk style hat.
"I'm sorry, Ryuta." Urako apologized. "Tell you what: You can go first the next time Ryotarou fights."
"Really?" Ryuta asked hopefully.
"Sure." Momon replied nonchalantly. "You're going to be annoying otherwise."
Ryuta cheered and jumped. However, another one of Ryotarou's personalities decided to spoke up.
"What about me?" asked one.
This personality was a version of Ryotarou in white. His hair was of the color of milk, and was tied up as an up-do. His eyes were of gold. He also bore a white feather scarf across his nape.
"Birdbrain?" Momon commented. "You're not going out there! We don't need your chivalrous bull-crap!"
"I beg to differ, my brother." "Birdbrain" replied. "Mine chivalry is next to nothing of this world!"
"And thou mayest refer to me as Sieg." "Birdbrain" added.
Sieg than swished his scarf around and sat back down at his seat. Just then, the kitchen area doors swung open and another personality entered. This one's hair and eyes were green, and his hair was calm. He was holding a plate that was holding several cups of warm, steam coffee.
"Now, now, everyone!" He called. "We've all had a long day, so why don't we all have some coffee to get relaxed?"
All of the personalities cheered as they all grabbed their respective cups.
"Within this wall of flesh, there is a soul that counts thee its creditor Odebu mine cousin." Sieg thanked, drinking his cup.
"Yay, yay!" Ryuta cheered. "Thanks for the coffee, Odebu!"
"Vigilant as always!" Kin-Chan chuckled, while drinking his coffee.
"Thank you for the coffee, Odebu." Urako smiled, taking a sip.
Momon just took his cup and drank. Odebu looked at him curiously.
"Well…" Momon replied. "It's less shitty than the last batch…"
Odebu smiled.
And all of this was going on within Ryotarou's mind as he was just enjoying a cup of coffee he made after he and Shotarou exited the grounds.
