When I get this out, expect two new stories to pop up.
One of 'em is a crossover with Nagatoro while the other is a RWBY crossover.
~NRK~
The time had come for their heroics class.
"Today, you'll finally be using the hero costumes you submitted before coming into school!" Vlad King said with a smirk as the wall by him opened up to reveal their numbered suitcases with their outfits within. "Go and get changed! We'll be meeting in Battleground C!"
Obito nodded as he got up and retrieved the 01 suitcase.
~NRK~
"So, simple is best for you, huh?" Keigo asked with a smile as he adjusted his boots.
Wearing a one-piece tan jumpsuit with fur on the collar, he'd donned some red boots with fur on the openings and black bands around his sleeves.
His eyes were covered by red goggles with a gold visor.
The brunette hummed as he adjusted his black ninja sandals.
Wearing a pair of black pants that cut off at mid-shin, the former shinobi had on a black skin-tight, sleeveless, turtleneck top that was covered by a long, zip-up, dark red cloak that was littered with white clouds.
It emulated his Akatsuki cloak and had a black color on the inside. He'd rolled up the sleeves of it to his elbow and the collar of the cloak was wide.
Last but not least, the boy had on black fingerless gloves and his goggles around his neck as a rectangular black box sat on his lower back.
The idea of the outfit was to give him as much air as possible, the items were made thin and temperature-durable. For hits, he'd have to deal with it or get some armor himself.
"Simple colors but maneuverability in mind," Obito said back as he rolled his shoulders to test his motion. "They do good work, I should see about the ones who did this."
"Who's your company?" Hawks asked with a chuckle. "I lucked out with the PHSC," he said with a nervous chuckle.
"Oh, well, it's the Foundation Company."
Keigo stuttered in shock. "W-Wait isn't that the company Endeavor uses!?"
"Yes," Obito said with a chuckle. "The man's been thankful for my tutelage to Fuyumi and put in a good word for me."
"Dammit! That's so cool!" Keigo wanted to have such good luck!
As they got up, the two left the boy's locker room, making it out to the Battleground C field. "
Oh, there's Fuyumi-san," he said with a sly smirk, nudging Obito who chuckled.
Fuyumi looked around before smiling brightly as she saw them, hurrying over. "Hey, you guys," she said with a grin.
Wearing the boots she'd bought, Fuyumi had on a pair of white pants that covered the rest of her legs.
Her top was a black, skin-tight, long-sleeved thing that covered up to her palms and was decorated with icy mist-like patterns on her back. Over it, she had on a small powder blue vest that he'd made sure she got armor in, for her safety.
The last thing, though, was her long cloak that had a thick collar but was a regular cloak compared to Obito's Akatsuki-like version.
It was white with a red stalagmite pattern over the back of her shoulders. It had a hood and had small light blue rope ties that could close it around the front of her body.
The last thing was a pair of goggles around her neck that was silver in color with a light blue visor while the girl's hair was currently tied back into a low ponytail. On her legs were a pair of kunai pouches, red in color.
"It looks good," Obito said with a smile and she blushed bright red as she scuffed her feet a bit.
"T-Thanks!" Fuyumi grinned as she observed him, nodding to his goggles. "See, I knew this would work for you!" She said as he crossed his arms and rubbed the back of his head in slight embarrassment.
"Yes, well… You were right," he answered and Keigo snickered from beside him.
"And, let me guess, your dad and Obito here helped with your outfit," Keigo said with a smirk as she giggled.
"My mom, little brothers, and so on. It's a group effort."
"Of course, you'd say that," came a voice from their side and the three turned to see none other than Shinya, the girl's eyes full of fire. "You've got a long way before you try and pull that bullshit like you did yesterday."
The horned girl seemed to have pulled out her Chinese origin as she wore a large Chinese-style robe top that had large sleeves and a few ties at the chest level that kept it together.
It was bright yellow with green cuffs and borders while she donned thigh-high white boots that had padding on the feet.
The last thing was a light green face mask that covered the upper half of her face around her eyes.
She placed her hands on her hips before looking at Obito. "And you!" Shinya pointed at Obito who raised a brow. "You better enjoy that Number 1 spot while it lasts! I'm gonna take it without fail! Hmph!" She huffed, chest pushed out with pride.
Obito raised a brow before the group was approached by a familiar shaky girl.
Bocho Shinpi hadn't changed much, wearing a black bodysuit under a white t-shirt and black shorts and sneakers.
Her hair hadn't even been changed, leaving her looking like the most normal person ever in the world of heroes.
"Ugh! What's with your outfit?!" Onemu shouted at her as the odd girl jumped.
"Oh! Um!" Bocho blushed. "I-I just didn't want to be too picky or too complicated or too weird or-"
"Chill!"
"Ah, yes!" She listened before looking at Obito who raised a brow at her. "U-Um, y-you trained Fuyu-chan, right?" Fuyumi blinked at the nickname before smiling.
"He did," Fuyumi said as Bocho's mood rose.
"T-Then, do you think you could help me?" She asked and Obito rolled his eyes at Keigo leaning on his shoulder.
"Well, well, well, look at that. You attract them like flie-Whoa!" He said slyly before flames were spat at his feet.
Soon enough, the bird boy was held upside down and chuckled nervously as the girls giggled or smirked in Shinya's case.
"I get it, I get it! No jokes!" Keigo said shakily and Obito ignored him.
"I can do so after school. Fuyumi, I, and a few others typically train together."
"Awesome! W-Well, maybe tomorrow. I have to help at parents' shop today." The girl said with a smile before Vlad King came over to them.
"Alright."
"You all ready?" He asked his students who nodded or smirked. "Heh, good effort, everyone's here. So, today's test is going to be a battle simulation with a VIP!" Vlad announced to the group of teens.
Obito raised a brow.
"The goal is for the VIP Team, the Hero Team, to save a test dummy, your 'VIP'," he explained. "While the enemy team, the Villain Team, will be the ones keeping them under wraps. Your goal is to prevent them from touching the VIP until time runs out. No matter what, quirk or otherwise, if they touch it, you lose. If they capture you both, too, you lose."
"I see," Obito said. "As 'villains', we can't give them a remotely easy win. We have to make them work."
"Exactly, Midoriya. That's also, why you're going to be on the Villain team with Bocho Shinpi," Obito blinked as he and Bocho locked eyes.
The girl smiled shakily before he nodded.
"A pleasure to work with you."
"L-Likewise!"
"While the Hero Team… will be Fuyumi Todoroki… and Onemu Shinya," Vlad said with a smirk as the two girls gaped at him.
"Bullshit! Why can't I fight her?!" Shinya growled.
"Because we can't plan for every hero to be who we want to work with," the man said. "This is to simulate rapid team-ups in the field. You work with what you've got."
The girl growled before looking at Fuyumi who nervously smiled at her. "Don't slow me down!"
"Didn't she score higher than you?" Keigo asked nonchalantly as the horned girl burned bright red. "Mmm! I guess my memories are not as bad as I thought."
"S-Shut up!"
~NRK~
Obito and Bocho stood on the top floor of a ten-story building.
Behind them, was a robot with the word 'VIP' on its monitor.
"So, what is your quirk, exactly, Bocho-san?" He asked and she swallowed before demonstrating.
Her skin turned black before a white mask-like substance fell over her face.
Then she began to grow in size, arms extending out before she was as tall as the room would allow, that being 9 feet tall.
"Is this as big as you can get?" Obito asked as he touched her hand, the girl's mask burning red a bit. "Apologies."
"N-No, it's fine," her voice became kind of bubbly, gaining a numerous quality to it. "I-I'm super rubbery like this and I can be as big as a small house when I try my hardest."
"That's rather versatile."
"Really?" She asked. "I mean, I'm usually too big to do anything b-but I could beat up the robots!"
"Yes, but you could also help people out of the levels of tall buildings. You could work with a team of firefighters and act as a safe spot to fall on by expanding over a street. Your quirk is valuable to saving lives," Obito said with a smile and she brought her hands together with a smile on her mask.
"I'm glad. What about you, Obi-kun?" She asked and Obito blinked at the nickname. "You can blow fire and control it, right?"
"Yes, I can, I can control the white flames completely but they don't last while my normal flames are destructive and carry a lot of weight," he said and she made an awed sound.
"T-That's so cool."
"It's helpful," he said before humming. "Now, the test alarm should ring so-"
A loud air horn sounded out and he nodded.
"What should we do?" Bocho asked as she returned to normal. "I could block a hallway, I guess."
Obito considered that. "You could but then they could just send one of them another way. We need to prevent them from easily reaching the top floors… I've got an idea," he said with a smirk.
~NRK~
Down below on the first floor, Shinya and Fuyumi rushed to the end of the hall.
"God, of course, I'm stuck with the nerd," she hissed under her breath as they made it down a hall and ran up the stairs. "You're not an exercise lightweight, are you?" Onemu asked and Fuyumi blushed.
"I-I'm not exactly physically great yet," the Todoroki answered honestly.
"Dammit," Onemu cursed as they made it to the next floor. "Forget it, I don't think that Shinpi girl is gonna be fun to fight against. You'll be fighting her."
"Oh, well… what's her quirk?"
"It's some rubber growth thing, don't try to throw punches at it."
As they ran up to the third floor, they were able to reach the middle of it before screeching to a halt as a ball of fire slammed through the windows.
It angled towards them and they jumped apart as it exploded.
"Oh ho ho! We got the big fish first!" Onemu said as Obito skidded to a stop into the hall ahead of them. "Change in plans, go up top! I want him!" The horned girl said as her form hissed before she bulked up.
Real Bull allowed her to basically become a minotaur-esque beast.
The girl's legs shifted into a bull's and they ended in hooves while her outfit fit her more muscular form with ease, clearly planned for.
Her hands were big while her face gained a dark brown patch of fur around her eyes as her horns grew larger before becoming 2-foot long weapons that pointed forward.
'So, that's her strongest form,' Obito always found people with more animalistic quirks to be the best ones.
If all you had were a few new perks to your body, that meant it could still be made stronger via normal training. Those kinds were ones he would have liked to have if he could.
"Hmph," Obito looked at the ice user before bouncing back and forth on his heels. "Don't hide from me now," he said with a smirk before lunging towards them.
"Fast!" Fuyumi squeaked before she jumped outside and slammed her hands onto the outer surface of the building.
Ice shot out beneath her feet before shooting up to the roof-
Flame destroyed the area ahead of the hall and knocked out the ice outside as well.
"H-He's as good as always."
Inside, Onemu grinned before charging the boy who met her lunge before rotating below. "What-?!"
He slammed his foot into her stomach and she coughed out spit before he grabbed her arm.
Obito stomped down before twisting and throwing her back down the hall.
Fuyumi squeaked as his head turned to her.
They looked at one another for several seconds before she ran up and away from him, rapidly-made ice taking her to the floor above.
He jumped out before kicking off her ice platform to give chase.
"Eeeeeeeeeee!"
~NRK~
"He's good," Keigo said as the rest of his class nodded, Vlad chuckling as they watched Obito move. "Obito is handling both of them by using his martial strengths."
Fuyumi, on-screen, jumped before he trapped her down the hallway.
The boy then blew out a burst of fire that melted the floor below her feet, causing her to fall through and land on the floor in front of a recovered Onemu, the fire-breather landing back to the lower level in front of them.
"By keeping them together, he gives Shinpi the time to handle their plan," the teacher said. "The VIP is not allowed to be moved to a different floor but it can be taken to another room on that floor. The issue is, no other room has as much space as the original does."
Looking at different cameras, they could see Bocho shifting some of the rubble around.
Heh, smart kids.
~NRK~
"Dammit, keep him busy!" Onemu shouted as Fuyumi grunted, getting to her feet. "He's one guy, he can't be that hard."
"Is that what you did earlier?" Fuyumi asked before covering her mouth as Obito snorted and Onemu gaped at her. "U-Um, that is, yikes!" She ran away before hiding behind Obito as Shinya's eyes burned bright with her distaste.
"I'm gonna squash you."
Obito's eyebrows twitched before he looked at the cowering Fuyumi.
"Really?"
"Y-Yes!" She said before hugging him from behind. "Sorry!"
He'd expected that to be about her hiding but then he saw the ice on his body.
It enclosed around him, locking his arms into place.
"... Clever girl-" He began to say as she looked both embarrassed and proud before he was picked up by Onemu. "Now, I know what you're thinking and the answer may surprise-"
She slammed him into the wall at their side.
~NRK~
Keigo snorted as he started laughing. "That's gold!" He cackled as the others laughed as well.
~NRK~
The hole the minotaur girl made with the fire-breather's body crackled as the two of them got to the next level through the hole Obito had made earlier.
"Haha! Suck it, Numero Dos!" Onemu mocked as the two girls ran. "Alright, I won't kill you, Todoroki, I liked your spunk just now. Grab a hot guy and trick him with your weakness."
Fuyumi blushed as she remembered what she'd grabbed. 'They were so firm,' she burned red as the two of them made it to the next set of stairs and reached the fifth level-
A tower of fire ripped through the floors ahead of them, causing both girls to come to a screeching stop once again as the flames melted the floors into hissing molts that they blinked at.
"... T-That wouldn't be a last attempt, r-right-" Fuyumi tried to ask only to be interrupted.
"It wouldn't," Obito said as he floated to their level, a flaming cloud under his feet.
He was dirtied by debris, dirt, and some pebbles, but his twitching eyebrow got their attention.
"Run."
They did as fireballs rained towards them.
"This is all your fault!" Shinya said before jumping as one nailed her in the rear. "Ah! Be careful with those things!" She shouted at him before ducking another pair.
"Numero Dos, right?"
She cursed. "He heard that?"
"You shouted!" Fuyumi gawked at her.
As they reached the staircase, the ice girl blinked at the window beside it.
"Here!" She whispered quickly, jumping out the window and establishing another ice platform outside for them to land on. "Ice go!" Fuyumi begged as it shot up in diagonal lines.
They ran like bats out of hell as fire exploded out of the stairwell window, a body coming after.
"I'm coming."
"Eep!" Fuyumi slammed her hands into the wall outside the building and shot more ice towards him but Obito simply jumped above it before kicking off the wall to one of the windowsills.
"Hosenka!" Fireballs spewed out of his mouth and towards the girls.
"Ice Barrier!" Fuyumi shouted as a counter, ice swirling around the two's location. "Into the building! We're almost at the top!"
Jumping into a window on the eighth floor, the two ran for the opposing stairwell.
"We won't make it!" Onemu said as an explosion happened at the end of the hall. "... Dammit-!"
"Go," Fuyumi said, determined and coming to a stop. "Y-You're faster than me a-and I don't have the stamina to keep running," she explained, breaths slow but short.
"... fine, don't die," Onemu said as the Todoroki sweatdropped.
"W-We're not fighting for our lives, you know."
"I'm being dramatic!"
Fuyumi giggled as the bigger girl ran off before she faced him. "N-No hard feelings?" She asked with a blush and nervous giggle as Obito crossed his arms, the smoke from his entrance still there.
Then it cleared to show white fireballs at the ready all around him.
Her eyes shrunk. "Mercy! Mercy!" She tried to plead with him.
The boy raised his arm. "No." It lowered and the first shot out at her in control bursts.
She jumped around and dodged as best she could but threw up a sudden ice wall to block them.
Obito twirled a finger in front of him once and the flames by him spiraled before shooting forward at twice the speed of before.
Fuyumi jumped as they punched through her ice. "Aiyyeeee!" She ran to the stairwell, slapping her hand against the wall at her side randomly as she did. 'Distance! Distance-!'
Fire exploded around the stairwell before shooting towards her.
She screamed.
On the tenth floor, Shinpi grunted as she saw the location of the dummy destroyed, covered in rubble.
The rooms at both ends of the hallway were also destroyed but lacked rubble.
'She probably piled it on in front of the door,' Onemu thought before rearing back a fist. 'Not good enough!'
"Bull Force!"
As soon as she swung, before making contact, her hand opened wide into a palm strike that destroyed the rubble within one blow. "Hah! Not so tough are…" Onemu blinked as she ran inside and looked around.
She looked and looked and looked before her eyebrow twitched.
"WHERE THE HELL DID SHE GO?!"
Behind one of the destroyed doors, Bocho smiled with the VIP, hiding behind a cloth.
'He was right, this is low stress.'
"Times up!" Came Vlad King's voice over the speaker. "Villain Team wins!"
Obito looked at the whining Fuyumi within his Shien Kangoku. (White Fire Prison)
Releasing her, he caught the girl as she dropped from his hold on her on the wall before her head slumped.
"It's fine, this was a good experience for you, I'd bet," he said with a smirk as she chuckled nervously.
"I guess," she said before a yell happened from above. "That seems to be my partner," Fuyumi said as she held onto his sleeve. "Lead the way, please."
He chuckled.
~NRK~
Down below, the four stood before Vlad King.
"Alright, clearly, Midoriya and Shinpi passed with flying colors," the man said with a smirk as the two smirked or smiled. "As for Todoroki and Shinya… Hmm, you two did okay. Shinya, though, stop being so aggressive with your teammate, they're there to help not hurt you."
The bull girl grumbled as she looked at the ground.
"Todoroki, you had good quick-thinking but you scrambled the moment you were overwhelmed. Heroes need to remain calm in the face of adversity."
"Yes, sir," Fuyumi said with a nod.
"Otherwise, a good showing."
~NRK~
Come lunchtime, the group reconvened, all of them sitting down at one table… with two more additions.
"Hmph, so this is the Winners' Table, huh?" Onemu said as Bocho smiled as she sat next to Fuyumi and Obito. "Didn't think there was so much color," she noted as Kaoruko chuckled.
"We're a pretty weird group," the bubble girl said as she ate. "Hm, hmm! Lunch Rush outdid himself today!" She declared as Obito ate some of the food.
"Hmm…" He considered his food before getting up. "I'll be right back, I need to ask him for the recipe," was all Obito said before walking off.
"What is he? A foodie?" Shinya asked.
"Nope, Obito-senpai's just a big cook guy."
"Why are you calling him 'senpai'?"
"I've been wondering that, too," Keigo said. "Did he get held back by accident?"
"What, no!" Yu said before snickering. "She just calls him that because he's older."
"... Gotcha," he didn't get it but he did.
Girls were weird, that's all he needed to know.
As they ate, Obito returned in quick order, a piece of paper stuffed into his pocket as he did.
"I got it out of him, eventually," he said as he sat back down, Fuyumi and Bocho giggling as he did. "What'd I miss?"
"We learned a bit about Kaoruko," Keigo said as the girl grinned. "So, quite a bit."
"That's a well I'm not gonna dig through, who knows what I'll find?"
"An endless ima-gination~," She said with her hands coming out and around her head.
"Exactly."
~NRK~
Come the end of the school day, the normal five found themselves back in their special class once more.
Wearing their hero costumes now, Obito saw that Yu's costume wasn't even all that different from her Exams outfit.
She kept the bodysuit but it was white with blue marks around the chest, stomach, thighs, and feet where he saw that boots were built into the outfit.
On her head were a pair of horns and around her eyes was a glasses-esque face mask that was blue like the marks on her body.
Kaoruko, on the other hand, had far more skin showing in a white crop top, black tights, black gloves, and a yellow gas mask.
Over her top, she had a crop top jacket that was yellow and white and came down to her biceps, leaving her stomach, forearms, and forehead open to the world as she donned some white boots.
Keigo found he couldn't stand behind her for some reason, lest his face grow hot again.
'No, seriously, what the hell is up with me?' He thought as he stood next to her, eyes going to the shorter teen's head of blue hair that looked like seaweed to him. 'Like, I'm fine right here, so why…' His eyes trailed down to her stomach before he pinched the bridge of his nose. 'What the hell?! I am not a perv!' God but his eyes weren't staying away from her toned stomach.
Yu wore an ominous look of smugness as she saw it. 'Well, well, well, ain't that interesting?' She thought before looking to her left at Obito and Fuyumi. 'I seem to be the only one who's noticed.'
How fun!
"Today, we'll be handling team exercises," Ectoplasm said, taking the lead, while Nagant nodded, the two in their 'hero costumes'. "Today, we'll be using robots to see how you all work together. The groupings will be as such-"
"Hold on there, Ectoplasm!" Came the voice of principal Nezu as he rushed over with a student in tow. "We've got one more for the class!"
"H-Hi," it was another girl that Yu and Kaoruko seemed to know.
"Umi-chan!" Both cheered as the girl giggled a bit.
Obito and Keigo raised a brow. 'More girls?' How many girls did they know by this point again?
'Umi' was a girl with fair skin, slitted blue eyes, and slightly long blue hair that fell more towards the back of her head.
Her quirk seemed to be the fins on the sides of her head in place of her ears. They were almost as big as her head and dark blue with light blue membranes between each ridge.
Wearing a light gray scuba suit with no sleeves, a white skirt, and a pair of thigh-high dark blue boots. Her forearms were covered by forearm-length armbands and her hands by sleek-looking dark gray gloves.
"Hiya," the girl said as she came over and Yu and Kaoruko welcomed her with open arms.
"This is Umi Hire, she's from our class," Kaoruko said as Yu grinned. "We figured we'd need more strong swimmers like Obito-senpai."
"You swim?" Keigo asked and Obito nodded. "Let me guess, lung capacity, right?"
"On the dot," Obito nodded. "I'm planning on taking more difficult swimming and diving lessons, my lungs have been built up well from all the ones I'd do when my family would go to the beach."
"Damn, you're just prepared for everything."
Nagant thought the same thing. "So, you want in on this, too, huh? I guess it helps to also round out our numbers," she said with a chuckle. "Welcome, Umi-kun."
"Thanks," Umi said with a smile before standing next to Obito. "So, you're the guy they hold on a high pedestal, huh?"
"Hmph," Obito didn't know what to say to something like that.
Hearing someone other than his brother say these things wasn't something he knew how to deal with. He usually just assumed they were joking even knowing the fact behind the situation.
So, hearing someone take that like this made him unsure.
"Not much of a talker, huh?"
"Not really," she snorted at his response.
"Now there are six!" Nezu cheered as Nagant controlled herself from saying how cute his reaction was. "With this, you've got an even number of students."
"Thank you, sir," Ectoplasm said with a small bow that the creature principal chuckled at.
"No problem, I'm glad we have students so willing to branch out. Now, I'm gonna sit in on this one. I'll probably do this twice a week, Nagant-san."
"No problem, I'm glad you had Ectoplasm-sensei help," she said. "Today they're going to be doing team building, though. If you want to see my type of courses, you'll have to come either tomorrow or Friday."
"Understood, I can find a way to Friday."
"Then, with that, your principal is watching, don't mess up," Ectoplasm said playfully as many of the students smirked. "Yesterday, for those not in the know, Midoriya basically stood out as the best at stealth."
"Really?" The mouse-gerbil-bear hummed, walking up to Obito who bowed to him. "Polite! Why, how well did you handle them? I know Ectoplasm isn't a slouch."
"He's not but he gave me enough advantages to win against him," Obito said. "My quirk also gives me more versatility than most understand on first viewing, I had the field on my side as well."
Ectoplasm chuckled a bit. "He's a real tough one, I see greatness in his future. They've all shown that they have some intuition, so that's going to work well here."
"I see. You know, a student of ours did go and do undercover work ever since he graduated. A man by the name of Shouta Aizawa. You two might work together one day. I think that'll be an efficient mission."
"Thank you, sir."
"Now, I've held you all up enough," the man said as he sat on Obito's shoulder, inside his cloak. "Go on, senseis."
Nagant's eyebrow and lips twitched at the sight.
'D-Don't break!'
"It's cute, principal!" Kaoruko said with a giggle as Fuyumi smiled as well. "Why, I'm sure plushies of you would sell well."
"They do! I have a new line coming out, crazily enough!"
"I'm looking forward to it!" Yu said with a snicker.
"Good, good, I'm glad you all are full of energy," Ectoplasm said with a smirk as he saw Nagant's struggles to keep a straight face. 'I understand, my colleague, he makes it hard to not gush!' He'd nearly fallen victim to the small man's mannerisms many times before. "So, today, we'll have you all working in groups of two. One of you will be the 'Attacker' while the other is the 'Supporter'. Whoever has the latter role, you can not attack the target no matter what happens. That's for your teammate. The Attacker's able to do everything in their power to finish the exercise but they're not allowed to defend themselves. The robots will have paintball bullets and you'll know when you've lost if three hit your Attacker teammate."
"That's a pretty big power divide," Keigo said with a hum. "That means, as support, we'd have to only protect them?"
"... no, we're Supporters not Blockers. We're able to give them better chances," Obito considered. "Think of it like this, Fuyumi, as a Supporter, is metaphorically the strongest one here," she blinked in confusion before the realization hit.
"Oh! Because I can make structures, right?" She asked and Obito nodded.
"That and you can give, say, Kaoruko elevation, traps, and defensive advantages from something as simple as a square block."
"Oh! So, say, she could also make me a sword, too!" Kaoruko said as Fuyumi nodded but giggled nervously.
"I'm not that great at forming things. Even pillars are a bit… much," she said. "But I want to help in any way I can! I'll learn to form things faster and more complex."
"I trust ya!"
"Exactly," Nezu said. "To think that supporting is only preventing harm is flawed, Keigo-kun," the bird boy chuckled nervously.
"Sorry."
"No, it's better to get such understandings dealt with earlier rather than later, I'm glad you brought it up."
"Exactly," Nagant said, her giggles done with. "Now, for Supporters, Obito-kun, Keigo-kun, and Fuyumi-kun, that's you three."
"I expected that much," Keigo said as Obito nodded.
"Because we're the top scorers?" Fuyumi asked.
"It's that but also because we have some of the best quirks," Keigo said. "No offense," he said to the other girls.
"None taken, that's for sure," Umi said as her ears flagged a bit. "These aren't exactly known for being the most terrifying things."
"They can be useful, you just need to break down what they truly do," Obito said and Keigo smirked.
"Trust him, he's a teacher," he said and Obito snorted.
"Not from you."
"Aw, don't be like that."
"Heh, so, Attackers are gonna be me, Kao-chan, and Umi-chan," Yu said in thought. "Hmmm! Maybe that can work, I know these three can handle being Supporters for once," she said with a grin.
"Then, your pairings are as such," Nagant said as they looked at the large computer.
Obito Midoriya - Umi Hire
Fuyumi Todoroki - Yu Takeyama
Keigo Takami - Kaoruko Awata
"I get we're partners, bud!" Kaoruko said with a grin next to Keigo who grinned shakily.
'Oh, God, why?' This was his worst-case scenario!
"So, I guess I am the one who'll need the most help," Umi said to Obito with a smile. "Looking forward to working with you."
"Likewise," Obito said.
"We've got this, Fuyu-chan!" Yu said with fire in her eyes as Fuyumi chuckled.
"I'll do my best."
"With that, Obito-kun, Umi-kun, please come forward," Nagant said, the two doing as told. "Now, you get five minutes to plan around this but you two will be fighting five 2-Pointer robots from the Exams."
"Oh, man!" Umi grimaced as Obito shot her a look. "I, uh, focused on the 1-Pointers," she admitted as he nodded. "So, this is going to be… hard."
"How'd you handle them?" He asked and she blinked before rubbing the back of her head.
It was then that Ectoplasm gave the girl a cross-spear that she smiled in relief at.
"This was how," she explained.
"You've spearplay?"
"Well… I'm two years in. What about you? What's in that box?" She asked and Obito nodded.
When he tapped on its sides, it opened and he pulled out two weapons.
A pair of tonfa that were an inky black that was riddled in fire motifs, all red.
The weapons were easily a foot and a half long, their boy flipping them into his hands before tightening his hold on their grips.
"Tonfa?"
"I've got long-range and middle-range. I've dealt in martial arts as well but mostly leg moves," Obito explained as Ectoplasm looked intrigued. "Yep, just like you, Ectoplasm-sensei."
"Hm, hm, hm! That's interesting," the man said. "Which kinds?"
"Muay Thai, pankration, and taekwondo."
"Oh, that's sharp," the man said. "I guess you're making up for your fists?"
"Well, I know how to use grapples and throws but having a weapon is always a viable method. The tonfa just spoke to me," Obito said as he put them away. "I'll be using none for the exercise, though."
"Self-limitation?"
"I feel more aggressive with the two, that's not needed here."
"Smart," Nagant thought. 'So, even weapons training?' What else?
Did he know how to hack a computer? Make bombs? Crack a safe?!
"I'm ready. Let's plan," Obito said to Umi who nodded.
They moved over to the side and chatted with nods, hand gestures, and small weapon movements.
"He's a natural in way too many ways," Nagant said as Ectoplasm nodded. "It's like looking at a super skill-orientated hero teaching rather than being a student."
"He's gained a lot of skills in the way of combat, it's true," Ectoplasm said as the others planned as well. "But his social skills might be misleading."
"You mean how he's too mature?"
"Well, I'd normally say 'yes' but his friend group… they've acclimated in a way that makes it so that doesn't seem to be the issue. I believe it's because he takes the 'mentor' role with them. So, not that but in how he handles them, scientifically. He uses cold hard logic to handle things despite what we heard from the Exams rooms."
It was true, Obito Midoriya seemed capable of emotion, yes, but he also looked at things logically. That could be good but it could also be a sign of how he'd do things.
They'd have to wait and see.
The two nodded right as they decided to signal the exercise's beginning.
A series of robots appeared in the distance of Battleground C and the two ran over to them.
Umi's eyes narrowed as they reached the halfway point before the machines opened fire.
She and Obito dodged to the side in unison before rolling to a stop and moving forward.
'Keep in a line where he can keep a close eye on me,' Umi thought but it was kind of embarrassing. 'Don't mess up, don't mess up!'
She had her spear at the ready and, as they moved in and out of cover, Obito spat out a burning white flame coating over it.
They got closer when he stopped her in a bakery.
He pointed up and he spat flames at their feet that rose them into the air and onto the next floor before they traveled to the roof and peered down at the moving robots.
Obito looked at her and held four fingers up before splitting it into two, one pointed towards those below and his others to the back and he made sniper-like motions for those ones.
Umi's eyes widened and she nodded nervously before he beckoned her to the building across from their window.
Obito made more flame clouds and they circled their opposition before reaching the robots at the back.
Umi lunged for one before slicing it apart.
The other turned to her but a whirlwind of white fire blocked its vision from all sides.
[Beep, vision, taken!]
She cut it down quickly after, wiping her forehead before Obito pulled her back into the shadows of a set of buildings.
Seconds later, Umi swallowed at the sight of the two other robots crash-landing down on their partners' death sight.
"What do we do now?" She asked him in a whisper before Obito smirked. 'O-Oh no, that's kind of hot,' wait, dammit!
Now wasn't the time for cute boys!
"From down below," he said as he blew flames into the ground that melted it in seconds. "We'll make a trap. Umi-san, go around and down the street," Obito said as he blew a flame towards her.
It burned white before floating by her feet and she blinked at it, moving her shin to watch it move around with it.
"... It's kind of cute," she said with a smile as Obito snorted before he blew more flames down below, building a ball of rolling white heat. "Alright, just move down the street."
He nodded before releasing his flaming breath and making a handsign.
It burned deeper and she ran into the shadows before going through building windows.
30 seconds later, Obito smirked when he heard her call towards the robot.
"Yoohoo~ Mecha boys!"
The robots to his side turned and rushed the girl.
He breathed in before slipping out and making a handsign.
Umi swallowed as the robots came running, their rifle noses trained on her… before they stumbled, the floor cracking under their weight and causing them to fall into a ditch that they were left at a tilt because of.
"Now!" Obito yelled from down the street and her eyes narrowed before Umi lunged.
She reached the first and sliced through its head, Obito's flaming 'enhancement' making it easy before it fell away.
'The next's gonna be hard!' She grimaced before stabbing at the next robot's barrel. 'Get rid of its weakness and focus on the neck!'
With the robots easily eclipsing her in height twice over and of similar width, when she swung at its smaller neck, she only cut a third of the way through.
"Dammit!" She cut again and again. "I-It's too-"
The white flame at her feet shot forward before her spear's tip burned bright white.
"... Oh," Umi took aim before swiping through the robot's neck. "Killer!"
It stopped moving after she did and the alarm blared that told her she could relax.
"Haa," she leaned on her weapon as Obito came over with a nod.
"Good work," he said and she grinned.
~NRK~
Come the end of the day, Fuyumi found herself and Obito with their families, minus their fathers, at the Quirk Coliseum.
At the moment, the two of them were playing a form of hidden tag.
Obito would be in the center of the field of ice pillars and he'd have to find her before ten minutes were up.
He ran down lines of ice columns as Fuyumi breathed in from the opposite direction.
She moved with long strides while sending waves of ice in another direction.
Fuyumi then spread out her senses.
'Sense him out and… lock him in!' She touched the floor, a light sheen of ice on it. 'Frost Lock!'
The sound of interlocking ice came from a bit away but she kept moving-
A whistle in the air caused her to stop and Fuyumi shivered at her shock.
'He's just trying to-'
"Found you," a voice whispered in her ear and Fuyumi's body trembled from her feet up to her forehead. "I'm impressed," Obito said softly into her ear and blood rushed to her head as it mechanically turned to see his smirking visage, his arm above her on the pillar, and his body leaning forward a bit.
It was so hot.
"H-Huh?" She made a stupid sound and shook her head. "T-That is… You beat me."
"I did but I'm simply better at finding people," Obito said simply as he leaned away.
Her body rebelled against this idea and stepped forward, towards him, but her mind told her she was being a creep and she whined.
"Everything alright?" He asked her, hand on her shoulder.
'Not like this,' Fuyumi shook her head. "W-Well… I'm just thinking about when I'll be able to use stealth properly. This feels like it's going to take a longer time than physical training."
"It will, learning true stealth isn't something you can just pick up like I told Yu." Obito said as they walked towards the others, the boy spitting out flames randomly to melt her little world. "Phew. That said, quirks change how that can work. You can eventually learn how to use specialized stealth for your quirk. You got a good one."
Fuyumi guessed.
Still, as they walked, Fuyumi smiled as he looked at her, throwing him a big grin as he looked confused.
Obito rubbed the back of his head as his face felt hot. 'I guess she's really enjoying this… And I'm not hating it either,' he'd never had a student.
… He'd barely had friends.
So, this whole situation was odd for him and it was crossing several lines that he knew he wasn't truly aware of. More concerning.
He wasn't sure if he wanted that to stop.
~NRK~
Their time as students had gone on for weeks before a month had passed… and, with that passing month, they came upon a grand event.
One where heroes could be made or broken.
The UA Sports Festival.
The quintet of Obito, Fuyumi, Keigo, Bocho, and Onemu were in class, the five looking at their teacher with interest and excitement as Vlad King grinned, slapping the blackboard ahead of them with those magical words written on it.
UA Sports Festival.
"I'm sure all of you know what this is," he said with a smirk as the students cheered. "Yep, it's time to see how you all will show the world your talents," Vlad said. "You all have seen it from the civilian setting but not the HERO one. The UA Sports Festival has replaced big sporting events like the Olympics! It is a show of the world's future protectors to the world! This sports festival will allow you all to see the world, even if only a bit, from the view of heroes who fight for the top rankings!"
"So, we finally get to see the world from there, huh?" Keigo said as Obito hummed. "We're there to make an impression. Though, for some of us, that'll be easy," he said slyly as Fuyumi giggled nervously.
"I'm already planning on interning at my father's agency," Fuyumi said as Obito hummed. "What about you, Obito-kun?" Would he end up at the same agency as her?
She hoped he would… but then she hoped all of them could be under Endeavor, her father.
"I don't know," he said, one eye closed. "I think training would simply be for the best," Obito said, looking at her and she smiled.
'Geez, don't act like you two are attached at the hip so easily,' Keigo thought with some nervous chuckles. 'Still, will the PHSC let me do this?' He'd love to intern under Endeavor but he wasn't sure… if they'd allow that or have him 'intern' under Lady Nagant. 'I'll ask her at lunch.'
"Now, I've wanted to do something recently but I didn't know if we should yet," Vlad said, gaining their attention. "... After the UA Festival, you all are going to do internships on and off during the year, that's going to be slightly invasive but it's life. There was a course you all are going to end up doing at a place called USJ. It's a super-personal training area but I haven't considered it until now," his eyes focused. "After you all come back from your internships, we're going to be having a super-difficult training session… with your upperclassmen."
The students gaped at him. "Hold on, what the fuck?!" Onemu uttered.
"Y-Yes, that seems… tough," Bocho said. "A-And we're going to fight them?"
"Well, I haven't done all the planning yet but you'll have two months to get stronger, don't let that go to waste!" Vlad declared and the students murmured.
"It's probably one of the best things we could get," Keigo said to the class. "Think about it, we'll get to meet our third years! Doesn't that sound exciting?"
"I-It kind of is," Fuyumi said with a shaky smile. "They'll be more experienced… but they're closer goals!" She said to everyone.
"If you want to be heroes, you have to look at your comrades," Obito said, leaning back in his seat and looking at his class. "You'll be able to learn so many things if you can glean information from them. And it won't be company-specific. They won't be under an NDA."
The class sweatdropped at his intent. 'He's as intense as always,' they thought before getting pumped.
If their Top 3 could say all of that, they were fine!
"Yeah!"
"I'm gonna impress some people!"
"Time to shine!"
More of such words were said as the groups got pumped up.
Vlad smirked. 'They're good motivators, that's what a strong person should be,' he thought before blinking at the door to his class.
A familiar woman beckoned him over with a 'come here' gesture and Vlad raised a brow before going out of the room.
"Midnight, what's going on?"
"I hear your class is doing a big thing at USJ with the seniors," Nemuri grinned. "I want in."
~NRK~
When lunch came… Obito's eyebrow twitched as he looked out at the cafeteria.
"Here! Here! Sit with me!"
"Screw her, come sit with us! We can work out a contract!"
"Come hero! Let us! Of the Business Course! Lead you to financial security!"
Many more of such things were shouted at Obito as he and the others blinked at those already seated.
"I… am not looking forward to this," he said to the others who nodded.
He led the way and looked for their normal table… before frowning as he saw it wasn't unoccupied with greedy eyes.
Obito looked all around and grimaced at half-full tables waiting expectantly.
"... Screw it," he said.
The other blinked as he blew out a wide flame cloud before stepping on it and sitting down.
"Coming on?" He asked them and they grinned before getting on as well.
He then lifted it up above the others, ignoring the cries of those who wanted to get on as well.
"Good idea," Keigo said as he smirked and ate, the others doing the same. "That was getting obscene."
"I-It was," Fuyumi said as she prodded Obito's cloud. 'It's as warm as always,' and so white like an actual cloud.
Yet, she could watch how the flames circulated for days, the image being calming in a way.
She ate with a smile, truly relaxed.
"Man, you're going to have it made in the shade, senpai," Kaoruko thought as she grinned before activating her quirk.
The cloud was filled with a light perfume and nodded to her work.
"You could make thick bubbles, right?" Obito asked and Kaoruko shrugged.
"Maybe? I can certainly make 'em thin but making them thick is probably going to be really weird. Also, they are still bubbles so I have no idea."
"It won't hurt to try."
"Nope!"
Bocho rubbed the cloud's surface with wonder. "I… It feels kind of like heavy water…" She said to the others as they did the same, touching its surface.
"Well, fire can be plasma, right?" Umi asked.
"It's not wrong," Keigo answered. "But fire is typically composed of gases. That said, we know that Obito adds numerous oxygen molecules to his flames so maybe it'd be more like liquid gases."
Obito tilted his head at that. "That's not something I considered," he noted and Yu hummed.
"So, what could he do with it?" The giantess asked.
"He can bring two states of matter together, that's amazing," Umi said with a chuckle. "If that's the case, he might be able to make it possible to do so with some scientific study."
"That'd help science, there are all sorts of uses for that," Bocho said with a smile as Onemu snorted.
"It's all kinds of stuff that could help but we're heroes, not lab rats," she said, stuffing some noodles into her mouth. "Hmmm, dammit, why's he make such good food? Isn't he a hero?"
"Heroes can do anything if they want," Fuyumi clarified as the taller girl huffed. "It's important to not forget that we all aren't only people who can be heroes. Firefighters, cooks, doctors, cops, teachers, we can do anything if that's the path our heroism will take." She'd learned that it wasn't all about one way to be a hero.
It was also as her father said, you don't make it to the top if you only do one thing which was kind of ironic if you asked her.
They ate before the sound of chuckling came from behind Obito.
"Glad to see you guys enjoying yourselves," came the familiar voice of… Yoha?! "Sup."
"Yoha-chan!" Yu waved animatedly as the second-year hummed before jumping the gap between her and the second-level gallery above the cafeteria.
"Hmph!" The snake girl hummed as she tapped the clouds before chuckling. "This thing is pretty amazing," she said as she walked over before sitting next to Yu. "So, how are my favorite group of high-pointers?"
"Hehe~ It's been a while since you've seen Obito-senpai and Fu-chan, huh?" Kaoruko said and Yoha smirked.
"It has but I bet it's due to training, as always," she said good-naturedly as Fuyumi nodded with a smile.
"Catching up is going to take all my energy and effort. I'm just lucky Obito-kun has been helping me out," she said as Bocho smiled as well.
"H-He's a capable teacher, Yo-senpai," she said and Yoha blinked before she smirked.
"You've added to your group… and I'm noticing the ratio hasn't gone in your favor, Obito-kun."
Obito knew what she meant and shook his head. "It hasn't."
"Oh, yeah, it hasn't," Keigo said with a snort as the girls blinked in confusion save for Fuyumi who sweatdropped.
'This group is so full of estrogen, I don't know when a catfight will start.' At least, that's what her soap operas told her.
"Hey, you're here, so it can't be all that bad having a pal," Yoha said with a chuckle. "Now, you all looking forward to the Sports Festival?"
"Hell yes!" Onemu said with a grin. "I finally get to prove my skills as the number one."
"I thought that was Obi-kun," Bocho wondered as the bull girl's eyebrow twitched.
"I'll take it from him, just wait."
"That's a good answer, freshie!" Came a voice from the gallery.
Obito's head turned but his eyes widened as his hair was blown back to the side, gaze going to his left where a pair of red eyes peered into his black ones.
'That speed was…!' Faster than anyone in this room! "... Your speed is incredible," he said as the others' heads snapped in his direction to see the girl in front of him.
"Heh… So you saw, huh?" Bronze skin stretched as the upperclassmen grinned, long white hair resting back down against her back. "Didn't think a newbie could see me."
She, like Yoha, had been wearing the female school uniform but her blazer was tied around her waist while her tie was loose.
As said before, she had red eyes, bronze skin, and long white hair but, atop her head, were two long hare ears that Obito's eyebrow twitched at.
'Fucking Kaguya has me annoyed by rabbits,' dammit.
"Hmm… Wait, aren't you… Rumi-senpai?" Yoha asked with a tilt of the head.
"Got it in one!" The young woman said with a smirk as she placed her hands on her hips. "The name's Rumi Usagiyama, the woman who's bound to become the Number 1 on the rankings!"
Obito knew one thing as she flaunted herself at the group.
She was strong.
He finished his food with a hum before swallowing and standing up, looking down a few inches.
"If you don't mind, senpai," he began. "How would you like a spar?"
Keigo snorted as Fuyumi giggled while Yoha blinked.
"W-Wait, since when was Obito so assertive?!" She asked Yu who blushed before grinning.
"Ya shoulda seen him in the Exams! He was all hotblooded and everything!"
"No...!" And she'd missed that?!
"Hm, hm, hm, hm! Hotblooded as of late?" Came the voice of Midnight, their English teacher who was chuckling from down below. "Well, you wanted a spar, right, you two?"
The two jumped down as Obito lowered his flaming cloud.
"Yes." They said in unison.
Rumi's grin could have split the building. "Yes, a freshie who can speak my language!" She cheered as Nemuri chuckled.
"Yep, Men who can read minds are very rare."
~NRK~
The two stood outside in the courtyard, blazers off as their shoes tapped experimentally against the floor.
"Five minutes!" Nemuri decided with a raised hand as students from the cafeteria sat outside, watching them. "A little spar between our cute little students! The Freshman, Obito Midoriya! Versus the Senior, Rumi Usagiyama!"
"Not too scared, are ya?"
"That just makes me more excited."
"Oi, phrasing!" Keigo heckled from the side, getting a roll of the eyes from Obito. "Hey, I'm not the one trying to get my eyes rolling in a different way!"
"...?! My God, Keigo! Shut up!"
"Just sayin'!"
The students who could get the joke laughed hard while those who did but didn't get the humor blushed like innocent children.
Yu blushed while Yoha, Kaoruko, and Onemu laughed like idiots.
Bocho and Fuyumi, meanwhile, blinked in confusion. "What's the joke?"
"You poor innocent children," Keigo said dramatically as Yu began to laugh. "It's alright, it's very dirty humor."
"... P-Pervert!" Bocho blushed as the boy cackled.
Fuyumi, meanwhile, huffed with red across her nose to her ears.
"O-Obito isn't like that!"
Never before had Nemuri felt a true kinship with someone.
"Yes, kids get such jokes!" She cheered as Obito's eyes went flat while Rumi snickered.
"Come on, I wanna fight!" The rabbit cheered as Obito grunted.
"Rules?"
"Pure hand-to-hand, no quirks."
"First to land an actual blow?"
"Sure!"
"Then let's get this party started!" Nemuri said, hand coming down. "Start it up!"
There was a crash of forearms as the two met in the middle.
Obito's mouth set in a smirk as Rumi grinned before bringing her legs up and kicking him away only to hum.
Landing, she smirked. "You're not bad, that kick couldn't do a damn thing, could it?"
"Couldn't hurt your feelings now," Obito said with a snort.
"Oh, someone's feisty."
She rushed him and that impressive speed happened again as she blurred out of sight.
'She's faster and believes she's faster than anyone,' he thought as his ears perked. 'But you're not the one with the greatest reflexes!'
As he heard her he slunk to the side and dodged her kick to his head.
"What-?!" Was all Rumi got to say before a kick landed into her hastily made block at her side. 'Damn, my kid-' He didn't let her finish her thought as the younger teen brought rotated in the air before slamming a kick into her knee.
Obito landed as she sailed to the ground before recovering into a crouch.
'She turned her leg at the last second to zero-out my damage,' that was some good quick-thinking! 'Still, that kick near her kidney should lessen her abilities.'
He rushed her but the girl kicked up and over him before Obito kicked up.
Two kicks equaled out before Obito was sent into an uncontrolled tumble as Rumi landed in a crouch.
"Not so hot now, are ya?!"
He recovered into a sliding crouch, looking at her.
'So, her quirk's more than just her ears, it's probably one where she transforms,' he realized as they lunged at one another again. 'Legs, hips, abdomen, ears, these are her most powerful limbs.'
They slammed their legs together thrice over, the air knocking Midnight's hair back.
Obito locked his ankle behind Rumi's before pulling himself towards her in an act of flexibility that shocked her enough to allow him to grab her arm.
He rolled before tossing her into the ground from the air and swung his leg around and up.
Rumi rolled away as he cratered the floor where her stomach had been.
Their eyes met and they were engaged once more.
As several loud cracks of shins to shins erupted in the air, Nemuri smiled softly.
Students facing students, learning, fighting, forgiving, accepting, having fun, enjoying their lives.
'Oboro, I wish you could have seen these kinds of things,' she thought sadly as her smile shifted. 'But I'll make sure kids like these don't ever go through that kind of shit.'
Even if she only taught one class!
'Yup, he's scary,' Keigo thought as Obito performed some form of crawling grab that sent their upperclassmen to the floor once more before she kicked out his legs and tackled him. 'She's gotta have a form of increase from her rabbit-type mutation if that's all it is,' maybe it was full-form?
A rather fierce kick was sent into his friend's side that he couldn't block well, getting a long hiss out of Keigo as Obito was thrown through the air like he'd been hit with a sledgehammer.
The other boy of their team went into a harsh roll that he backflipped out of, landing on his feet, before he kneeled down, holding his side.
Fuyumi was worried. 'That didn't look kind,' she thought, holding her hands together in her lap. 'Wait, what am I thinking?' This isn't a fight to the death… but she still didn't like seeing Obito hurt.
"Rumi-senpai is known as the strongest third-year as we speak," Yoha said to the group. "Her quirk, literally called 'Rabbit', is a partial transformation. You guys probably don't remember her from the previous Sports Festivals."
"... I don't," Kaoruko said with a frown as she crossed her arms, Obito standing up to his full height as Rumi ran at him before vanishing from her sight. 'She'll probably attack from the back, senpai-!' She mentally shouted in worry.
Only for Obito to turn that on its head as he turned and leaned back, leg coming up to grab Rumi's outstretched one.
He then let go before snapping his heel into her stomach. The blow hadn't thrown her away, though… and she learned why soon after.
As he juggled her.
"The actual hell?" Yu gaped as Obito running kicked the girl into the air before elbowing her away. "D-Dude, you can't do that in real life!"
"Um… I think Obi-tan can," Bocho said in awe. "T-That was so cool!" She cheered as their class did the same.
"Kick her ass!"
"Show her what 1-A is made of!"
"I want an advanced aerial combo!"
Keigo chuckled at their class's energy. "Well, he's certainly got their support," he said as Fuyumi giggled, eyes on the brunette.
'You're fine, aren't you?' She realized as he saw his smirk-like grin, the fire-breather chasing down his stumbling opponent who also grinned back at him. 'You're a fighter, you get stronger and stronger by challenging yourself… which is what I need to do,' Fuyumi nodded to herself. 'Whatever happens, even if we're apart, I'll survive.'
That was the least she could give Obito for all he's done for her.
"... Wait, didn't they already hit each other?" She asked him and Keigo blinked.
He snickered. "They don't give an F right now."
Their kicks cracked time and time again against one another, though Obito could feel his leg bruises from the act.
'She's built more for her legs and I'm suffering for it,' Obito thought with a grimace as they separated. 'Still, I've gotten the hits I need,' he thought as they stood up.
Rumi's legs trembled as she hit her knee. 'Wait, dammit, did he use that weird kind of smart guy tactic?' She'd not thought she'd be at his mercy like that. 'Still… This has got to be one of the best fights I've ever had in my life!' Even counting the villains during her internships!
Red eyes shined as she stomped down, standing up and crushing the floor under her right white loafer. "You're pretty good!" She told him before crouching down, hair flared out. "But I'm winning this!"
Obito's eyes widened as she vanished in an explosion of dust. 'She's going all-in on this move,' he realized with a breath as several divots formed around him, eyes flicking to his sides as his ears heard the steps behind him. 'She's not giving me any info on her blow.'
Even if he could see her in front of him, if he got too caught up with his sight, he'd not be able to react to his hearing.
Obito chuckled as he bounced back and forth on his feet. Staying stationary wouldn't do him any good… So…
Rumi's eyes widened as the boy held up his dukes before blurring around, quick shifts in the center of her explosive speed his plan.
'That son of a bitch,' she grinned viciously as she landed on the school flag pole. 'You're way too damn good!'
Her thigh bulged as she exploded off it with enough force to bend the metal pillar.
Their eyes met and Rumi grinned before her 'hop' turned into a flying kick.
"Time's up!" Nemuri said as she held Bocho in her hands.
The girl expanded into a large black 'Noh blob' and Rumi let out a confused sound before being smothered by the black material.
Obito stopped skipping around and blinked as Bocho turned to him.
He raised his hands in surrender and she seemed placated by that as her form shrunk, the girl putting Rumi down as she returned to normal.
"Ugh!" Rumi complained as she fell to her rear, gasping for breath as sweat swam down her cheeks. "Dammit, that would have been the best of my career!" She groaned as Obito chuckled ahead of her.
"You're pretty good," he said as she pouted before flipping into a crouch, spats hiding beneath her skirt once more. "Even without your quirk active, I can tell, you've trained like no other here," Obito said, holding out his hand to her.
Rumi blinked before smirking and taking it, the boy pulling her up. "Not bad, you're pretty strong," she said with a chuckle as Obito snorted. "For a freshie, too? Man, you've gotta be kidding me."
"I believe in becoming strong to see my plans through," he said and she grinned widely. "Nothing more to it."
"Seriously talking my language right now," she said with a grin. "I got an idea, why not come to intern at the agency I'm at? I currently work for a guy who gets people like us."
Join her agency, huh? That'd be interesting.
"I'll have to see, I want to know who'd come for me when I fight in the sports festival."
"Oh… right, forgot about that," Rumi said with her arms crossed and a hum. "Alright, alright, let's see who can beat my invitation."
Obito snorted.
How curious.
~NRK~
Nothing really to chat about here, we get to see the hero costumes and I'm pretty okay with what I got for both of them.
Fuyumi is the 'mage' as Kaoruko said, she's the one who doesn't have good 'defense' and, as such, she was kind of inspired to take up the title.
Now, when we get to her hero name, that's a whole other thing.
Obito obviously borrowed a lot about the Akatsuki cloak but he also made it his own. He is the Divine Flame Hero, Kamui, and that title will mean something.
In other news, we meet three more characters to flesh out the classes. Bocho Shinpi and Onemu Shinya are from Tensei's team, by the way. The former's name I made up while the latter is as it is.
Other than those three, we meet RUMI! Yeah, I'm doing a little year finagling but, yeah, she's in her last year while the others entered their first.
So, we've got a stacked deck, and up next… is the UA Sports Festival.
Words:
~NRK Out~
