CHAPTER 11
The Rift of Friendship
After Shota Aizawa's Quirk Assessment Test, the day went as normal as it sounded at the school. They were starting with English with Hizashi Yamada AKA Present Mic.
'So normal…' Everyone, including Junpei, thought in unison.
'So damn boring.' Katsuki was the only one who didn't think alike and sounded more like disinterested.
Later on, during lunch, Junpei, Izuku, Ochako, Tenya, and Momo went to the Grand Mess Hall to get their gourmet food which was made by the Cook Hero: Lunch Rush. Junpei still hasn't known what was his name.
"White rice is great comfort food, isn't it?" Lunch Rush offered with a thumb up.
"Yeah." Ochako agreed with a nod as she was eating her food: white rice, side dishes, and miso.
Tenya was eating pork curry, Izuku was eating Katsudon, being his favorite dish, Momo was eating Italian-cuisine-style spaghetti, and Junpei was eating a large bowl of Tonkatsu.
After lunch, there it was with the afternoon classes, that being the "Hero Basic Training" with All Might.
"I am…" Someone intoned as everyone looked at the door. "COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"
Which… nothing and I say, NOTHING looked like anything a normal person would do. The way All Might was swaying from the door with both hands grabbing the door frame behind, it would have been mistaken from a pose for ice-skaters.
"Wow! It's All Might!" Denki wowed.
"Wow, he is a teacher!" Eijiro said in awe.
"That's a costume from the Silver Age, isn't it?" Tsuyu pointed out.
And that was the truth what All Might was wearing, he was wearing a multiple colored skintight being red (upper) and blue (lower) with white lines in between. He also had yellow forearm guards, belts and boots, and with final touches his blue (outer) and red (inner) cape.
"Its style is so different; it's giving me goosebumps," Mashirao said sweating in excitement. (Not that kind, you pervert)
All Might boomed as he continued. "I teach Hero Basic Training. It is a subject where you train in different ways to learn the basics of being a hero. You'll take the most units of this subject! Let's get right into it! This is what we'll do today: Combat Training!" He took out a card which said 'Battle'.
Some of the students, including Junpei, were excited by it.
"And to go with that are these!" He pointed at the wall which emerged various containers that had their hero costumes and numbers inside. "Costumes made based on your Quirk registrations and requests you sent in before school started."
Everyone cheered excitedly to try their costumes.
All Might continued. "After you change, gather in Ground Beta!"
"YES, SIR!"
'This is going to be e~pic!' Junpei thought, smirking excitedly.
(U.A. – Ground Beta)
All Might waited for the students to arrive, his magnificent pose posing at the entrance of the gates where the students will come out. Suddenly, he could hear varied steps coming toward him which his smile beamed proudly.
"They say the clothes make the man, young men, and ladies. Be fully aware… From now on… You are HEROES!" All Might took a great time to see the youngling heroes in their costumes. "That's great, everyone. You all look cool! Now, shall we begin, you zygotes?"
CLASS 1-A STUDENTS' COSTUME DESCRIPTION (You can skip if you want):
(A/N: This is most likely the same reference in fandom Wikia. The order is in their seat numbers.)
Seat 1 - Yuga Aoyama's costume consists of an entirely black suit covered by metallic violet armor with golden details. The kit consists of five pieces (a chest plate, two boots, and two bracelets).

Seat 5 - Ochaco Uraraka's costume consists of a skintight pink and black suit with detached sleeves, knee-high boots, belt, helmet, collar, and thick, round bracers with handles attached to them. The accessories are designed to press her acupuncture points in an attempt to reduce her Quirk's drawback. Quirk: [Zero Gravity]

Seat 8 - Eijiro Kirishima's costume consists of wearing a vest that consists of two shoulder pads that are shaped like gears, while his chest is left uncovered, and wears a half skirt with a ripped pattern over pants with an "R" belt. He also wears a jaw-guard around his mouth that looks vaguely similar to an animal's fangs. Quirk: [Hardening]
Seat 9 - Koji Koda's costume consists of a mixture of red and yellow one-piece suit which lengths are for arm, pass elbows and up-knee yellow shorts, yellow shoes. His costume insignia has a mouth-shaped design on his chest. Quirk: [Anivoice]
Seat 10 - Rikido Sato's costume consists of a yellow full-body suit that has two holes for his mouth and hair to come out. He wears white gloves and boots and a utility belt around his waist. Quirk: [Sugar Rush]
Seat 11 - Mezo Shoji's costume consists of a sleeveless light-blue full-body which it connects his dark-blue colored mask. His costume has six dots on his abdomen and a dark blue colored belt with a yellow dot on the center. Underneath, he matches his pants with his clothes and dark blue boots. Quirk: [Dupli-Arms]
Seat 12 - Kyoka Jiro's costume consists of a black leather jacket, long salmon-colored shirt with several rips at the collar and bottom, black pants, and boots with stereos in them. She also sports two small, red triangle facial marks just below her eyes, a plain black choker, and white finger-less gloves. Quirk: [Earphone Jack]
Seat 13 - Hanta Sero's costume consists of a black full bodysuit with white designs across his mid-torso area. The sleeves are left short so he can effectively use his Quirk. He has white short bands around his waist and thighs and a large one across his chest and back connecting his shoulder pads. He also sports white boots with orange trim. His sleeves end with matching orange trim and he has two orange shoulder pads shaped like his elbows. He completes his outfit with a helmet similar in shape to a tape dispenser. Quirk: [Tape]
Seat 14 - Fumikage Tokoyami's costume consists of a dark robe with a purple tint that covers his entire torso and knee-high black boots. Quirk: [Dark Shadow]
Seat 15 - Shoto Todoroki's costume consists of wearing a simple white shirt, white pants, white boots, and gold-colored combat vest. He also has ice covering his left torso, arm, and head. Quirk: [Half-Cold Half-Hot]
Seat 16 - Toru Hagakure's costume consists of blue gloves with pink lines and brownish-gray shoes. (is she naked or something? Or has an invisible skintight suit?) Quirk: [Invisibility]
Seat 17 - Katsuki Bakugo's costume is composed of a fitted black sleeveless V-neck tank top with an orange X with the top half borders his shirt collar. His costume also has a seemingly metallic neck brace fashioned and used as a collar with three holes on both sides. His sleeves reach from within his large grenade-like gauntlets to his biceps. His belt, which also carries grenades, holds up his baggy pants with knee guards. Underneath those guards are black, knee-high combat boots with orange soles and eyelets. He occasionally wears his hero mask that has a large, flare-shaped cloth. Quirk: [Explosion]
Seat 19 - Minoru Mineta's costume consists of very simplistic, having a purple shirt and mask with a yellow cape, pants, boots, and gloves matching his cape. During the winter months, a stem-like detail is propped up on his hair, contributing to the grape theme of his costume. Quirk: [Pop Off]
Seat 20 - Momo Yaoyorozu's costume consists of a red leotard-like vest with silver linings and edges and matching red boots. She sports a gold utility belt that matches a band that goes across her chest. Her vest leaves space open from the center of the collar to the waist above the belt. This leaves much of her skin exposed, including the area from her stomach to her chest and her arms and legs as well. The design choice allows her to create items from as many points in her body as possible. Quirk: [Creation]
Seat 21 - Akari Tatsuma's costume consists of a black skintight underneath a black and red qipao with amber lines trailing from the shoulder ending to her thighs, dark-red gauntlets that had a design of a dragon claw, and black combat boots. Quirk: [Blade Dragon]
Seat 22 - Junpei Takahashi's costume consists of a sleeveless long indigo trench coat with a hoodie. He uses the trench coat open buttoned, under it wearing a U-neck black tank top. Underneath, he wears dark indigo baggy pants with a silver belt and a utility bag on his back as the pants connect with his black boots. Quirk: [Oni] + [Magic Eyes] = [Demon]
(A/N: Maybe I should change some seats to make Junpei sit more closely to Izuku or any other. *coughMinetacough* or anyone can give me an idea for the classroom seat arrangements. Junpei's seat is between Momo and Shoto as Akari's seat is between Rikido and Ochaco. Or to make only two seats behind Shoto's seat (Seat 16) and Rikido's seat (Seat 11))
'Man, these clothes make me look awesome!' Junpei thought with a smile checking on his trench coat. 'I can't believe that I didn't look up to fashion in my previous life! Or did I?' He wondered thoughtfully before shrugging. 'Meh, maybe there was a reason for it. It has been 15 years since I was last sent here. I can't have a perfect memory all the time.'
The sleeveless trench coat and pants were designed with durable leather, capable of withstanding his strength without being shredding or ripping off, but also giving the idea that he is a close-combat individual making his opponents think that he can't do range but that would be a mistake they would learn later. As for his support equipment, they were worn underneath the clothes unless he has to take it off.
After that, he'll have to think of something to upgrade his costume. Once he uses his [Magic Eyes], the villains will be wary of him so they'll be careful against him. He may add something onto his face.
Step! Step! Step!
Just then, Junpei heard from behind that Izuku had finally worn his costume and was coming; using his first Costume Alpha.
Seat 18 - Izuku Midoriya's costume is a green full-body jumpsuit with a red belt, elbow pads, knee pads, and gloves, along with his red boots. He also wore a mask with long ear-like protrusions that resembled All Might's haircut, and a respirator with a smile on it that also reflects said hero.
'There weren't any changes at all… I thought he would be using a different one but it would seem that the jumpsuit was like made by Aunt Inko.' Junpei thought, musing to himself.
"Oh, Deku-kun?" Ochako called, putting on her helmet.
"Ochako-chan!" Izuku, in surprise, yelped in embarrassment by seeing her costume.
"That looks cool! Really down to the earth." Ochako said before rubbing the back of her head shyly. "I should've written what I wanted… Mine ended up being a skintight bodysuit. It's embarrassing…"
"Nonsense, Uraraka-san," Momo said as she came to them. "I feel that it helps much to develop one skill to ensure that heroes work well with their costumes."
"M-Momo!" Flustered, Izuku tried not to stare much on her body with her costume.
'He may have gained a backbone but I can at least be sure that he is too pure for this world.' Junpei thought, sighing at his friend's embarrassment. 'Sure, the girls are beautiful in their own way but doesn't this world have some sense of showing too much skin or wearing something skintight?'
Junpei blinked for a moment remembering something important. 'Oh yeah, she can't use her Quirk if the clothes block her skin so she must expose a certain part of her body to create in a whim. Maybe I should suggest her put something over her body to cover it.'
"I mean, though I requested something less tight it is mostly like I ordered," Momo said mostly showing her chest area to Izuku as he simply reddened intensely.
'Is she… Is she showing her assets to him?' Junpei thought incredulously. 'What happened to the Momo Yaoyorozu that I knew before? What did Izuku do that she is enamored with him?'
'I can't lose her!' Ochako thought with determination. Even though she doesn't have a well-developed chest, he is highly confident with her ass. She leaned down, trying to show off to Izuku, which Izuku took notice and reddened which Junpei if he didn't notice, that there was a little nosebleed.
"Oooookaaay?" Junpei mused wondering how he did become a Casanova so suddenly.
Not afar, Minoru had watched the interaction. He was slightly envious of Izuku but watching two girls showing their curves, his ire suddenly disappeared replacing it with lust. "The Hero Course is the best." He thumbed up.
"Takahashi-kun." A female voice called him which he turned to see Tsuyu with her costume.
'Seeing her in that costume is hot!' He blinked in confusion after thinking that wrongness. 'Wait, where did that come from? Gosh, these teenager's hormones are ringing just right now…'
Junpei quickly shook off those thoughts and saluted her. "Hey, Asui-chan, how are you?"
"Please…" Tsuyu intoned shyly confusing him. "Just call me Tsu-chan."
Junpei shrugged. "Alright, Tsu-chan." He smiled making her feel a tingly sensation on her chest.
"Hey, Jukkun, you two know each other?" Izuku asked curiously which Ochako and Momo mirrored.
"Yeah, I met her one month before entering U.A., I was simply doing my business of my own and encountered her with her two siblings. Of course, I didn't talk to her at first." He said as the others motioned to him to continue. "Anyways, suddenly a truck with villains were coming at us and things happened which I got permitted to use my Quirk without repercussion."
"As he said, I happened to be there with my brother and sister." Tsuyu continued. "And when the truck was coming at us, I quickly grabbed my siblings and jumped out of the way. I was also going to help him." She glanced at Junpei. "But since he got permission from Kamui Woods and Death Arms, I let him do it."
"Heh, so it was… an interesting encounter between you two." Ochako said uncertainly before shaking her head and raising her hand. "I'm Ochako Uraraka, nice to meet you!"
"My name's Tsuyu Asui but just call me Tsu-chan." She introduced.
"Then call me Ochako!" She offered with a smile.
"I'm Momo Yaoyorozu, I'm quite confident that we will get along." She said earning a nod from Tsuyu.
"And I'm Izuku Midoriya, nice to meet you Tsu-chan!" He said politely.
All Might had been watching in silence from the sidelines as everyone else was chatting on their own business. He simply observed his successor's friends' conversation and was quite surprised that he had two girls onto him. 'Ah~ to be young again~' He thought wistfully. Still, he felt kind of proud that his successor had put on his costume two ear-like protrusions like his familiar hair-style and a mask that mirrored is smile. It was quite amusing to see his successor looking like him at all.
But it wasn't the time to see his successor's friend interact as it was time for his work. "Now, it's time for combat training!"
That brought most of the students to quiet down before a robot-like hero, which Junpei and Izuku noted it was Tenya by his mannerism, raised his arm.
"Sir! This is a battle center from the Entrance Exam, and so will we be conducting urban battles again?"
All Might shook his head before raising two fingers. "No, we're going to move ahead two steps! Most of the time, fighting villains takes place outside, but if you look at the total numbers, atrocious villains appear indoors at a higher rate. Imprisonment, house arrest, backroom deals; in this society filled with heroes, truly intelligent villains hide in the shadows!"
'Ah yes, those were times I had to deal with those that tried to having nefarious deals in our territories. Such things weren't looked to the other side so I had to deal with them for the sake of safety.' Junpei thought, nodding in agreement.
"For this class, you'll be split into villains and heroes and fight 2-on-2 indoor battles!"
"Without basic training?" Tsuyu asked in curiosity.
"This is a real battle to understand those basics! However, the key this time is that there's no robot you can just beat up." All Might informed.
"How will wins and losses be determined?" Momo supplied.
"Can we beat them up anyway?" Katsuki continued, much eager to punch someone.
"Will the punishment be expulsion like with Aizawa-sensei?" Ochako added with worry in her tone.
"How shall we be split up?" Tenya raised his hand again robot-likely.
"Isn't this cape crazy?" Yuga commented, totally ignoring the class.
All Might grunted impatiently as the vast amount of questions was given to him. "Ggh! I'll answer all your questions! Listen here!" He opened up a script from somewhere onto his hand. "The situation is that the villains have hidden a nuclear weapon somewhere in their hideout. The heroes are trying to dispose of that. The heroes need to catch the villains or get the nuclear weapon back in the allotted time. The villains need to protect the nuclear weapon for the whole time or catch the heroes."
"The situation feels very American!" Izuku noted which everyone nodded in agreement.
'It really feels like an RPG game.' Junpei thought clearly.
"Teams and opponents will be determined by drawing lots!"
"They're being decided so haphazardly?" Tenya questioned incredulously.
"Well, not exactly Iida-kun." Junpei denied.
"What do you mean?" He asked totally confused.
"Pros often have to create makeshift teams with heroes from other agencies, so maybe that's why?" Izuku offered intelligently.
"I see. The discernment to look ahead…" Tenya mused in agreement. "Please excuse my rudeness!" He apologized bowing politely.
"It's fine! Let's do this quickly!"
Each one of the students put a hand inside the box and picked out a random ball to decide which team they were. Once picked, they looked to their partner and were grouped as a team.
TEAM MEMBERS:
Team A: Izuku Midoriya & Ochako Uraraka / Team B: Shoto Todoroki & Mina Ashido
Team C: Momo Yaoyorozu & Tenya Iida / Team D: Katsuki Bakugo & Eijiro Kirishima
Team E: Yuga Aoyama & Minoru Mineta/ Team F: Rikido Sato & Koji Koda
Team G: Denki Kaminari & Kyoka Jiro / Team H: Hanta Sero & Fumikage Tokoyami
Team I: Mashirao Ojiro & Toru Hagakure / Team J: Mezo Shoji & Tsuyu Asui
Team K: Junpei Takahashi & Akari Tatsuma
'Huh, I little different from what I remember.' Junpei thought in contemplation at the pair the students got. 'Some of them were the same, such as Denki Kaminari with Kyoka Jiro, Rikido Sato with Koji Koda and Mashirao Ojiro and Toru Hagakure. But most of them are changed which the results could be different.' His mouth formed into a smirk into excitement for wanting to see what is going to change.
He then looked at his partner, which to say she was quite good-looking. From what he noticed on her, she was the second tallest among the girls being 1,64cm behind Momo. She had a medium-length scarlet-colored hair, had a short bang at the front showing her narrow eyes but Junpei noticed it were amber on both eyes. She had a quite cute colored tan skin; she had a good build being quite athletic, not too skinny nor buffy, but she has a quite developed chest size which from what he could come up is that she is a C-cup size.
'God, in this universe the women are going to be the death of me!' Junpei thought, trying to suppress his lust before turning it into a thoughtful humming. 'Hm… somehow I can recognize her family name but I can't place it where…'
As for Akari, she had simply continued watching All Might while not noticing Junpei's thoughtful expression.
"Come on! I should at least want to partner with a girl!" Minoru whined which disgusted the women.
For Team A, Ochako was quite delighted to be a partner with someone close to her.
"Wow, it must be fate! I'm counting on you!" Ochako cheered happily.
"Yeah, let's do our best!" Izuku agreed.
Momo was pouting enviously at Ochako which for Junpei, it was quite of the first time seeing her like that and that it looked cute.
"The first teams to fight will be…" All Might started putting both hands inside two boxes that had 'Hero' and 'Villain' words on them. "Team A (Heroes) and Team D (Villain)!"
Both Izuku and Katsuki gasped upon being the first battlers. Katsuki growled in excitement glaring at him as Izuku returned with narrowing his eyes defiantly.
Junpei could almost see a dangerous spark forming between the two of his childhood friends.
"Team A will be the Heroes, and Team D will be the Villains. Everyone else, head toward the monitor room." All Might said making everyone march toward the monitor room.
"All Might-sensei!" Junpei called.
Just as everyone stopped on their track…
"Yes, Young Takahashi?"
"I meant to ask, but how are we going to do all the matches? I mean, we are an odd group, so what will happen to the teams that are missed matched?"
All Might realized that there was a problem there. "I see what you're getting at; in that case, a Team can repeat the match being either a Hero or Villain."
'Hm, it could work.' Junpei pondered for a moment. "Fine by me."
With that, everyone made their way to the monitor room. Junpei was about to follow them just before he noticed how the tension between his two childhood friends was getting at.
Katsuki's glare was the deadliest stare that if he could make a hole by doing it, Izuku would have two holes on his skulls. As for Izuku's, he had his eyes narrowed which could draw the same hostility at him.
Ochako and Eijiro were calmly yet petrified at their stare match, which Junpei could pity them that they were going to be with them in this match.
"Uhhh… well then… good luck to you two!" Junpei finally said making his way to the monitor room, even though he was ignored by both of them. Ochako and Eijiro could simply wave at him on the way back.
'Guess this time it will be an interesting match…'
(U.A. – Ground Beta – Battle Building A – Villain Team)
"Young Bakugo, Young Kirishima, learn to think from the perspective of the villains. This is pretty close to a real battle. Go all out. Don't be afraid to get hurt." All Might informed them.
"You got it, All Might!" Eijiro gave the hero a thumb up.
'How could he, a stupid weakling as him even join the U.A. and even get a Quirk?' Katsuki ignored him to get into his questionable thoughts. 'I, and maybe that Shitty-Eyes, would have been the only one who would enter U.A. and me becoming Number 1. At least Shitty-Eyes is a worthy opponent to get by but the fucking nerd such as Deku isn't worth it!'
"Bakugo," Eijiro called elbowing him softly.
"Huh?" Katsuki looked at Eijiro before turning to the hero present. "Yeah, yeah, I get it." He grunted.
All Might continued with the rules and warnings but Katsuki ignored it.
Once inside, Katsuki and Eijiro were inside a room on the 4th floor with the 'bomb'.
"Man, I still can't believe we have classes with All Might! Ain't that cool?" Eijiro cheered, excited. "Still, we could have been at least being as heroes but in any case let's do our best, Bakugo!"
Katsuki still grunted under his breath, waiting for the match to start.
"Now that I think about it…" Eijiro glanced at the 'bomb'. "It is really a bomb they gave us? Or just a fake?" He tapped the 'bomb' with his knuckles. "Huh, well you look at that, it papier-mâché."
"Hey!" Katsuki called earning Eijiro's attention. "Deku has a Quirk, right?"
"Huh? What are you talking about? You're talking about Midoriya?" Eijiro asked in confusion. "Well, yeah, we did see what happened yesterday. It was kind of cool! Also, what's your beef with Midoriya? Did he do something to you?"
Katsuki motioned to ignore him and assume that what he heard and saw was the truth; his teeth gritting in anger and fists clenching dangerously. It wasn't going to be a simple match. It was going to a massacre.
'So my eyes weren't deceiving me at all… That fucking nerd had a shitty Quirk just as I proclaimed that I would become a hero alone. Did he dare to trick me?! THAT DAMN NERD!'
(U.A. – Ground Beta – Battle Building A – Hero Team)
Izuku suddenly had the shiver that someone was speaking or thinking ill of him.
"Are you okay, Deku-kun?" Ochako asked in concern. They were at the moment memorizing the building's blueprints as suddenly Izuku shivered for the unknown.
"Y-Yeah, just a sudden chill, I don't know where it came to that." He assured her.
"Maybe it is excitement because All Might is training us! Unlike Aizawa-sensei, it looks like there's no punishment, so we can relax and do well on our match!" Ochako suggested. "Or it is maybe because we are going against Bakugo?"
Izuku tensed but not from nervousness but hostile emotions.
"Yeah… yeah, maybe that's it…" Izuku's eyes narrowed dangerously as he stated slowly with a hostile tone. Ochako flinched at the emotion Izuku was showing and it was kind of scary nonetheless.
"Um… Deku-kun?" Ochako started before Izuku's eyes widened.
"O-Oh, Ochako-chan, I'm sorry if I scared you. I don't know where it came that." He chuckled nervously. "It's just that Kacchan always been with me since we were kids. Jukkun was the only one who was with me; others would simply ignore me because I was Quirkless but not him. He played with me despite me being Quirkless and he even suggested training together. I'm what I am thanks to him."
"Wow…" Ochako wowed in awe. 'To think they had this kind of past, no wonder that the three of them had some kind of fallout.'
"But I can't be but honest…" Izuku brought up with Ochako listening to him attentively. "Kacchan's amazing, despite I hate him. He's a piece of work, but his goal, his confidence, his physical strength, and his Quirk are way more amazing than mine." Before Ochako could retort, Izuku stood up firmly with determination on his eyes. "But that's why right now… I won't lose to him."
"...a fated battle between men, huh?" Ochako breathed in awe.
"Heh, you could say that Ochako-chan. And I'm sorry that this isn't your problem." He apologized sheepishly.
She shook her head. "It is! We're a team, aren't we? Let's do our best!" She cheered.
Izuku watched her, engrossing on her confidence and optimism. He was happy that there were friends that he could depend on onward.
"Now, let's start the indoor person-to-person combat training with Team A and Team D!" All Might declared as Izuku and Ochako were preparing themselves to start.
"Alright, that's our queue of the training, Ochako-chan!" Izuku said earning a nod from her.
They entered through a window and began their stealthy steps toward the villains' whereabouts.
"We've infiltrated successfully!" Ochako whispered.
Izuku took notice of the building's shape and halls with concentration. "There are a lot of blind spots, so let's be careful." He advised earning a nod.
The duo heroes continue their way to look for the bomb and they were now on the 2nd floor.
'I suppose that this match ain't going to be easy. The corridors have many tight spaces which it benefits for those who can lay ambushes or traps.' Izuku mused inwardly. 'Guess Kacchan will try to ambush us as soon as we found us.'
Step…
Just then, Izuku could hear a faint step at the corner. Ochako may have not heard it but Izuku did hear it.
He quickly raised his fist in command to halt and Ochako quickly obliged despite her confusion.
"Deku-kun, what's wro-?"
"Shush." Izuku shushed her quietly as the silence was welcomed and the faint steps were starting to sound louder and closer to their position. "Kacchan's coming."
Ochako tensed as the steps were closer by seconds.
"Ochako-chan, you go and find the bomb. I'll try to hold Kacchan as long as I can." Izuku suggested. "But notify me when you find it."
Ochako opened her mouth to speak but was shut when the steps were becoming louder.
"Alright, good luck Deku-kun!" Ochako said before turning on her back and running to look for the bomb.
Izuku breathed in and out to calm himself and motioned at the corridor where the steps were becoming closer.
He simply took one step toward the corner, which emerged an enraged Katsuki, jumping over the corner with a sneer.
"I GOT YOU NOW!"
Katsuki's intend to blast Izuku onto his face was useless as Izuku quickly rolled under Katsuki before the explosion took the former place of him.
"Come Deku, don't dodge."
Izuku quickly positioned on a fighting stance in front of Katsuki and Katsuki had both arms between his waists to prepare another barrage.
"Tsk, I figured you'd come for me first." Izuku clicked his tongue in irritation.
(U.A. – Ground Beta – Monitor Room)
"A surprise attack from the start?!" Denki sputtered with surprise.
"Man, suddenly ambushing the heroes. Bakugo has too much for Midoriya." Hanta commented dryly.
"Yeah, but something heroes have to make the same ambushes at villains," Junpei stated which All Might nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Young Takahashi. A surprise attack is a strategy, too. They're in the middle of a real battle right now."
"Midori-kun avoided it!" Mina breathed in relief.
"There goes Bakugo!" Denki pointed at the screen gathering the students' and All Might's attention.
'Haa… there they go fighting against each other for petty revenge.' Junpei thought while watching attentively at the screen. 'They both are going to be great heroes but both of them are idiots. I hope the day they both work together comes early than later.'

Izuku and Katsuki were faced to face on the undisputable fight they were going to get. The first to make a move was Katsuki leaping quickly with his raised right arm.
"I won't do so much damage that this fight gets stopped, but I'm gonna get close!"
He was about to pummel Izuku and show him who's the best. But before that could happen, something amiss from Katsuki's perspective had missed; Izuku had gotten closer to him in an instant and grabbed his right arm.
Before he could even wonder what happened, he was swung like a ragdoll over Izuku's shoulder and slammed over the concrete floor, taking the wind out of his lungs.
Disoriented but capable to quickly stand his ground again, he quickly saw the nerd standing firm behind him.
"Kacchan…" Izuku's tone didn't show any weakness but pure determination and firm. "You usually start with a big right swing. How much do you think I've been watching you? I wrote an analysis for all the heroes I thought were amazing in my notebook; which you were the first I analyzed."
Katsuki's eyes widened in shock before it was swapped with his glare of fury.
"My 'Deku' isn't always going to mean 'Useless'!" He spat his previous nickname as venom. "Kacchan, my 'Deku' mean… 'You can do it'!"
Katsuki gritted his teeth in anger. He was already furious for being lied that Izuku had obtained a Quirk or he had it before. But no matter, he would get his answer soon.
He slowly brought himself on his feet and glared at him.
"Deku…" He hissed menacingly. "Even though you were a scaredy-cat… That's what I HATE about YOU!"
They stared at each other before Katsuki's earpiece sounded with Eijiro's voice.
"Hey, Bakugo, what's going on over there?"
Katsuki placed two fingers on his earpiece. "Just shut up and defend. I don't see Round-Face with Deku so I assume that she went to look for the bomb. I'm fucking angry right now!"
"Hah… I understand." Eijiro's voice sounded more defeated than anything else. "I'll hold as long as I can." With that, the connection between the 'Villains' cut off.
'I can only pity Kirishima that he got partnered with Kacchan.' Izuku sighed feeling a sweatdrop hanging on the back of his head.
-o-
All Might had been listening to the conversation between the heroes and villains but none other students could as they were more confused and curious at the silent conversation.
"Man, it is frustrating that we can't hear them talk. I can't tell what they are saying with just the cameras in a fixed position." Denki complained mildly before he was stabbed by Kyoka's earphone jacks.
"He's talking to his partner over the small wireless radio." All Might pointed at his earpiece. "You can bring that plus the building's floor plan and this capture tape!" He motioned with showing a white sheet of tape on his hand. "Once you wrap this around your opponent, it shows that you've captured them."
"Yeah, but since the training has the capture tape as the rule of capturing, they could also use it at their advantage." Junpei divined with an agreeing advantage.
"Yes, they could also do that."
"The time limit is 15 minutes, and the heroes don't know where the nuclear weapon is located, right?" Mina asked.
"Yes!" All Might answered with a smile.
"Then the heroes are clearly at a disadvantage here!"
"No. That's incorrect, Ashido-chan." Junpei denied. "Heroes are usually in disadvantages during the scene. Such as hostage negotiation, for example, the villain thinks that they got the advantage because of the hostage so the heroes must be able to turn the tables on whatever they can think of." He explained intelligently at his colleagues, surprising even All Might.
"That's also correct Young Takahashi!" He thumbed up at Junpei before turning to Mina. "Besides, didn't Aizawa-sensei tell you, too? You know."
Most of the students raised their fists. "PLUS ULTR-!"
"Ah, Monsieur Bakugo!" Yuga interrupted which everyone's attention went to the screen.
-o-
BOOM!
Katsuki motioned to use his explosion to boost himself toward Izuku and kick him. Izuku quickly raised his arm to block the kick and as Katsuki was on the air, he quickly took out the capture tape on his hand and tried to capture Katsuki which Izuku noted the way Eraser Head had done it.
'Lucky for me to see Eraser Head's moves in person! Without a concrete idea as showing personally, I couldn't have done this.'
Quickly thinking, Katsuki swung his right arm impatiently again at Izuku which he predicted and used the momentum to swing over him and letting him fall on his own.
"Fuck!"
As soon as Katsuki fell on the floor, Izuku motioned to run away from him if he was going to give Ochako time to look for the bomb before the time limit.
"Come back here, Deku!" Katsuki demanded forcefully as he tried to stand up.
Izuku took another corner and planted his back onto the wall to take a break. Katsuki wasn't that kind as he continued yelling.
"HEY! You TRICKED me, didn't you?! Was it FUN tricking me all this time?! HUH?! You've got a flashy Quirk there, don't you?! Try and get me with it! 'Cause I'm better than you!" He screamed in a feral manner.
Izuku clicked his tongue ignoring his taunts as he had rested enough to stall him.
'As I predicted, he completely ignored Ochako-chan and shot at me. I knew it. From what I have seen, Kirishima-kun is best for close-combat so he was left to guard the bomb. I don't know if Kirishima-kun was left for Kacchan to come to me but Ochako-chan would have a difficult time against him.' He mused inwardly. 'Kacchan as the sword and Kirishima-kun as the shield… it is going to be very difficult to win against if I'm not quick to reach Ochako-chan.'
He shook his head to calm down. 'For what I had planned will work. All that's left is for Ochako-chan to find the weapon and Kirishima-kun, and then I'll head over for a 2-on-1 fight. That's how we can win.'
He watched the corner he was pressed on and listened if Katsuki was near. And when the word 'Hear' is on Katsuki…
"WHERE ARE YOU?! YOU DAMN NERD!"
'Yeah… wouldn't even bet otherwise.' He deadpanned shaking his head. 'Alright, or I beat Kacchan and rejoin with Ochako-chan, or I should regroup with her go against Kirishima-kun before Kacchan rejoins the fight. Some many outcomes, so little time…'
"Deku-kun!" Ochako's voice brought his attention.
"Ochako-chan, how's it going?" He asked quietly.
"Well…" Her tone didn't assure him at all. "There are… some complications right now."
(Minutes Ago – With Ochako)
"Ochako-chan, you go and find the bomb. I'll try to hold Kacchan as long as I can." Izuku suggested to her. "But notify me when you find it."
She opened her mouth to retort but Katsuki's voice and steps were becoming closer by seconds.
"Alright, good luck Deku-kun!" Ochako cheered before turning on her back and running to look for the bomb.
She had put herself a distance from them which they had started their brawl. Nevertheless, she had a mission which she was entrusted to and went to find the bomb.
She was at the moment in the 4th floor behind a pillar where she could see the bomb and the villain, Eijiro Kirishima, guarding it.
'Good, I've found them. I should tell Deku-kun and hide until he comes.' She planned while hiding from Eijiro's sight. She was about to place her hand on her earpiece before a scene got her attention.
"Man, Bakugo does like to go on his own," Eijiro muttered crossing his arms while guarding the bomb. "But that doesn't mean to me to be still while guarding." He then slowly turned to where Ochako's position was. "And that doesn't mean that I'll let you heroes win."
Ochako tensed as her position was revealed and quickly took action to place her hand on her earpiece.
"Deku-kun!"
"Ochako-chan, how's it going?" His tone was soft which meant that he was hiding from Bakugo.
"Well…" She could feel her sweat trailing down her forehead. "There are… some complications right now."
"…should I even ask…?"
Eijiro motioned to pump his fist together while activating his Quirk.
"Let's just say that… Kirishima-kun found me before I could call you." She said with a nervous chuckle.
"…right. Where are you?"
"I'm on the top floor in the middle room." Ochako quickly answered. "I'll try to hold him as long as you can come!"
There was a pause in which Ochako wondered what he was doing. "Almost directly above! We probably don't have much time left either. If we run out of time, our opponents win!"
"Okay, so what are we going to do?" She desperately asked.
"This is what we're going to do… Huh?"
BOOM! BOOM!
An explosion surged on the building, dreading what happened to her partner, she quickly tried to communicate with him.
"Deku-kun? Deku-kun! Are you there?"
"Jeez, Bakugo should ease down his mood," Eijiro commented dryly. "But on the side note, I should stop you from trying to reach the bomb." He motioned to another pump of his hard fists which Ochako tensed frigidly.
'This is not good, we have less than 6 minutes and Deku-kun can't help me right now.' She gulped nervously as Eijiro was walking toward her slowly. 'For now, I'll have to do my best and stall him.'
(Minutes Ago – With Izuku)
"This is what we're going to do… Huh?" Izuku whispered before he noticed that Katsuki had appeared just behind him with his raised hand, sparking madly.
BOOM! BOOM!
Izuku quickly rolled out of the danger as two explosions took his former place.
"What's the matter Deku?" Katsuki hissed, his hands smoking dangerously. "Why won't you use your Quirk? Are you saying you can win if you don't use it? Are you underestimating me, Deku?"
"I'm not scared of you anymore, Kacchan!" Izuku declared firmly getting ready for another CQC.
Katsuki's answer was gritting his teeth which later turned into a smirk while raising one of his arms. "With your stalking, you probably already know, but my Quirk: [Explosion] let me secrete nitroglycerin-like sweat from the sweat glands on the palm of my hand and make it explode."
Izuku cautioned to remain silent as he continued watching him attentively and seeing what was he getting at.
"If they made this the way I asked…" He placed his right hand over his left grenade gauntlets. "Then these gauntlets will store the nitroglycerin inside them, and…"
Izuku widened his eyes in realization and raised his arm instinctively in a flicking position.
"Young Bakugo, stop this!" All Might warned hastily. "You'll kill him!"
"If I don't hit him, he won't DIE!" He grabbed the ping of his gauntlet…
Click!
KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Within a fraction of seconds, the magnitude explosion blasted out of his gauntlet creating a massive death zone.
'I can't believe I'll have to use it right now!' Izuku channeled [One for All] on his flicking finger and released. "Delaware… SMASH!"
He flicked the air which in turn created a powerful wind pressure shock wave and clashed with the explosion.
The two attacks connected within an instant and rendered in a stalemate as both contestants watched as their attacks were overcoming one to another. In the end, Katsuki's concentrated blast won over Izuku's so he quickly jumped aside before the blast took him.
The blast passed by Izuku by a millisecond destroying everything on its path, blazing completely the corridor.
'Damn it, if I had been a little late dodging that blast I would have suffered a second or third-degree burn all over my body.' Izuku grunted as the ringing on his ears were blocking every sound around. 'Ah damn, this ringing is getting annoying!'
"…ung… Mido…" Izuku could barely hear what All Might was saying to him. "You… riya… Young Midoriya, are you alright?" He asked finally being able to hear well.
Izuku raised two fingers to his earpiece. "Yes, All Might, I'm okay. I little ring upon my ear but I'm fine."
He could hear the sigh of relief on the other side. "That's good."
Izuku quickly shook up the daze and glanced at Katsuki.
"Hah… is that even allowed?" He sighed wearily.
The smoke blocked where Katsuki was but the silhouette of his was barely noticeable. "Wow… The more that's stored in these gauntlets, the stronger the blast." His voice was full of pride and admiration of his gauntlets as he also was walking toward him. "Come on, I barely see what your Quirk did… I'll force you to surrender even if you're at full strength, fucker."
Izuku stood up and positioned himself into a fighting position.
"Hey, hey, what's wrong, Deku? I didn't hit you, so you can still move, can't you? Come and get me!" He said with more ferocity and eagerness on his tone.
"Tsk, as if it wasn't difficult earlier." He mumbled raising his fingers at his earpiece. "Ochako-chan, what's the situation?"
"I'm trying to get the bomb while using the dirt and rumble Bakugo-kun caused and throwing at him with my Quirk! But Kirishima-kun is withstanding everything I'm throwing, I don't know if I'll be able to get the bomb on time!"
"Okay… give me a moment." He quickly thought of a plan, something that it was going to be reckless but not stupid. Hopefully, he'll minimize the destruction and reach on time. "Okay, this is what we're going to do."
-o-
"Sensei, you should stop them!" Denki pleaded. "That Bakugo's really crazy! He's gonna kill him!"
"No." Everyone stopped and their attention turned to the one who spoke; to Junpei. "All Might-sensei can't stop this match!" He declared firmly.
"B-But what are talking about?! What do you mean 'No'?! At this rate, Bakugo will kill Midoriya! Aren't you even worried?!" He bellowed worriedly as other much agreed with him.
"Don't you think I want to go there and stop this madness?!" Junpei answered angrily, suppressing his best on his KI, he breathed in and out to calm himself down before continuing. "No, as I said before, every hero has to find a solution to turn the tables. If we can't do that, then we aren't worth to be called heroes!" He declared making everyone process what he just said. All Might looked at the youngling with a little respect; he didn't doubt that one day he would be a grand hero.
"W-Well…" Denki rubbed the back of his neck. "When you put it like that…"
"Besides…" He continued as his face started to form a smirk. "Izuku is no doubt that going to beat and win Katsuki with or without interference. So stay put and let All Might continue the lesson, shall we?"
Everyone was kind of stunned and sweatdropped at what declaration he made, Tenya and Momo were unconcerned of his action but seeing a new perspective of him, they approved such action despite how he commented.
"R-Right…" All Might trailed off as he didn't know if he was serious or not. He quickly coughed on his fist to compose himself. "Anyways, Young Bakugo, the next time you use that I'll stop the fight and your team will lose."
The screen showed Katsuki with his hand on his earpiece and snarling. "Huh?"
"To attack such a large scale inside is inviting the destruction of the stronghold you should be protecting. That is a foolish plan for both heroes and villains! You will lose a lot of points for it!"
Katsuki was muttering something All Might would barely listen and granted, yet not civilly, his words.
'Now let's see how Izuku will deal with Katsuki right now.' Junpei thought while preparing what different fights will occur.
-o-
"Okay, that's the plan! Hope you can hold that long, over and out!" Izuku took his fingers off the earpiece watching Katsuki gritting his teeth as All Might was warning him.
"Fine, then!" He raged furiously. "Let's fight it out with our fists!"
He blasted his way with his Quirk and raised his right arm for another blow. Izuku raised his arms to block it but within range, Katsuki stopped just before he could crash with him and used his explosions to dove up him and try his luck on his back; which didn't work out as Izuku had predicted he would do that so he donkey kick to his gut before Katsuki would take chance and made him skid backward.
"Gugh!" He coughed as he tried to breathe normally before glaring at him. "You shitty fuck!"
-o-
Every student gasped at Izuku's counterattack. Junpei, not so much, since Izuku was smart he would consider that Katsuki would have done something different.
Despite him being rash and reckless, he had to admit that Katsuki had battle prowess during a match. There were times that he would recall him fighting against upperclassmen during his time he knows him, and he was capable of giving punches and kicks, even if they were… untamed.
Yet, he was capable alright. If his attitude weren't that… brash, he would have been trained under Grandmaster Arata. But since that didn't work out, well… he'll have to look for another that can endure his attitude.
"Holy crap! Did Midoriya counter Bakugo's attack?" Hanta gasped in shock.
"Did Midoriya practice something before? It's as if he was a martial artist or something." Denki commented blithely.
"Ah yes, I have to agree with that Kaminari-san." Momo agreed, crossing her arms under her chest. "He had mentioned that he had been training since he was four."
"Hm," Mashirao hummed thoughtfully tilting his head. "His movements remind me of some ex-hero but I can't place it where."
'Hm, now that I think about it…' Junpei thought in contemplation. 'I never knew what the hero name of Grandmaster Arata was; maybe I'll know it later.' He shrugged indifferently while continuing to watch the match.
-o-
"Y… You… little… shit!" Katsuki gritted his teeth shocked that he would counterattack him at all. "What the fuck… How did you?"
Izuku quickly took the opportunity and lunged forward trying to get closer and finishing him off, he jabbed intending to end quickly but with Katsuki's reflexes, he tumbled back just before the punch would have connected. Katsuki's answer was giving an uppercut which Izuku quickly dodged it and leaped away to get some distance.
Katsuki tried again to leap and reeling back his leg. Noting his action, Izuku quickly raised his arms and blocked the kick which he didn't notice his other leg preparing for another one. Izuku was one second later which got him kicked on the face and skid far back.
"Alright, you shitty nerd..." Katsuki snarled. "I don't know how you did that but if that's how you want to play, I'll give it to ya!" He roared swing his right arm.
Izuku promptly ducked down as Katsuki's fist soared over his head, he then quickly spin kicked onto his guts managing to wind up all the air of his lungs.
"Gah!"
Izuku leaped barely over the air but swiftly span to finish it with a kick on his face. Barely breathing, Katsuki leaned back just before the kick would take him into the Sandman's grasps and leaped back to regain his breath.
"So you, hah… were looking, uf… down on me, didn't ya?!" He panted yet barked at the greenette.
Izuku narrowed his eyes as his posture didn't falter. "I don't care what you think about me or I think about you!" He pounded his fists. "This is something that you and I have to finish."
Katsuki's eyes twitched in anger at the attitude the greenette was giving him, his breathing slowly normalizing and getting ready with making his palms spark dangerously.
The eyes of defiance that Izuku was giving him wasn't even assuring for those that were watching them fight. Katsuki could simply grit at the defiance he was showing. The weak-ass Deku he had known, it wasn't him! Nevertheless, he'll have to show him that there is no one better than him even if it costs him!
Katsuki leaped once again but instead of a fist, it came to a kick; which didn't work out as Izuku sidestepped from its target, grabbed the leg and slammed him into a wall.
"G-Guagh!"
Katsuki's body fell onto the ground and blinked as the almost got knocked out if not he had put both hands behind his head to cushion the impact.
"Come on, get up." Deku's voice resonated as he stood over him. "We ain't going to finish if you're staying on the ground."
Katsuki's answer was… "You… shitty nerd!" And gritting furiously as trying to drill two holes onto his skull with his glare.
-o-
"Wow! Midori-kun is whopping his ass!" Mina said with slight awe.
"Still, that Bakugo doesn't play lightly even in practice," Sero noted.
'I'm quite surprised.' Junpei admitted absentmindedly. 'I know that Izuku had been training this much, but emphasize what I'm witnessing and Mina just said, he is whopping his ass completely!'
He thought about the moment they were doing with his memories but somehow this is changing the script completely which he wasn't disappointed at all. Better yet, he was going to enjoy every bit.
"I wonder what they are doing." Tsuyu noted planting a finger on her chin. "I mean, there isn't much time for the heroes. Aren't they going to finish it?"
Everyone, including All Might, stared at Tsuyu for a moment before turning to the screen. All Might had the gracious to talk to the earpiece.
"Three minutes left."
'Well, hopefully, what they are doing, they'll finish it soon.' Junpei hoped for the best.
-o-
"Are you underestimating me, huh?!" Katsuki snarled. "Because if you're doing that, I'm fucking kill you!"
Izuku stayed silent for a moment before answering. "No…"
Katsuki's murderous glare was planted on him. "You've been like this ever since we were kids…! Have you been underestimating me like that since then, you BASTARD?!"
"THAT'S NOT IT!" He yelled back managing to suppress the stupidity of his childhood friend's view. "Haven't you understood what we came from? I admired you! I admired your confidence! Your guts! Your charisma! …your QUIRK!" He bellowed. "You… You're an amazing person, so that's why I want to beat you! I want to win and surpass you, you complete IDIOT!"
"Don't look at me like that! You DAMN NERD!" He gritted furiously.
Katsuki was about to raise his other gauntlet and blast his face off for his defiance… but that never came at all as Izuku leaped off quickly next to him and hand-chopped the back of his neck as the blackness took him over.
"…sorry if you thought that way of me," Izuku muttered solemnly before glancing at the open hole Katsuki had created.
He ran toward the hole and glancing upstairs were Ochako and Eijiro was, he quickly jumped off grabbing what left the upper hole it had and used the momentum to leap up with enough force to send him up.
-o-
"One minute left." All Might's voice declared as Ochako and Eijiro were in a stalemate.
Ochako had used every rock, dirt, debris or anything she could use against Eijiro but he would simply tank it off with his Quirk and endurance which promptly there were fewer and fewer things for her to use.
"Damn…" She cursed as she used the last of her improvised projectiles at him.
"Sorry, Ochako, but this is a match that I don't intend to lose! So, I apologize beforehand." Eijiro said as he marched slowly to her.
Ochako was in trouble but it wouldn't any good if she panicked right now, the plan Izuku elaborated was going to work and she trusts him. Before she could get cornered, a little buzz on her earpiece indicated the next plan, which Ochako smirked victoriously.
"Eh, why are you smiling?" Eijiro wondered with honest confusion.
"Why because…" She started before running at him. "There it goes our plan!"
"Wh-What?!"
"Nothing to be alarmed…" A sudden voice sounded the floor. "Why?"
CRASH!
A hole suddenly formed at the left wall of where they were, where Eijiro was planted just before a greenette tackled him out of Ochako's path.
"Because I AM HERE!" Izuku bellowed holding Eijiro on the ground as Ochako ran straight to the bomb and managing to touch the bomb just before the time ended.
There was a stunned silence as Eijiro and the other onlookers processed at what happened. All Might, especially, was proud that his successor had used his catchphrase with such timing. His smile widening ear-to-ear as he bellowed at top of his lungs the next thing…
"Hero Team… WIIIIIIIINS!"
