Aftercare: Sitch, Class-1A

Midoriya was currently in a troubling predicament, he was currently nestled up so close to uraraka in the bed. His hands were wrapped around her back and he struggled to get them free without waking her up, she looked so pretty and calm he didn't want to disturb her sleep. His heart hammered in his chest as his thoughts flew around everywhere he was so scared of somebody catching them in this compromising position and getting the wrong idea or thinking something weird happened between them especially if someone like mina caught them she would never let them live something like this down.

Despite all his worrying midoriya tried to keep his fidgeting to a stand still as he slowly unraveled his arms from around uraraka, the blush never leaving his face as finally succeeded in doing so, he watched the girl sleep for a moment before she started to stir herself. Her eyes slowly fluttered open and seeing deku lying there next to her with a noticeable blush on her face, he gently waved a greeting and she did the same before her mind caught up to their predicament. She instantly began to blush as hard as deku was, the two sat there not knowing what to do for a moment but just sat and stared at the other. this trance the two were locked in was abruptly broken by the sound of the door beginning to be opened, uraraka flipped out and broke eye contact first and quickly scurried out of the bed as fast as she could midoriya was more calm on the outside but he was just too stunned to move. He removed the covers that uraraka haphazardly threw over him as she left and as he could properly see again the person that entered the room was not one that he expected, he thought it would be one of his friends but instead it was sitch.

The older gentlemen was a bit spooked by all the hurried movement form the girl who sat in the chair next to him with her hands covering her face, midoriya for a moment was curious why she wasn't floating up like she normally would maybe she touched herself with her knuckles to stay her feet.

"I…..I hope ..I wasn't …interrupting anything." Sitch said with a cough as he came up to the bed and looked towards Midoriya and Uraraka, both teens' faces were incredibly flushed after that statement making both of them nearly spazz out with denial of anything happening or anything like that before each took a breath.

"No…no sir, Um what brings you here?" midoriya asked

"I see well, I wanted to check up on your progress. I see now that you are up, is blacking out like that normal for all of you?" sitch asked

"Thank you for your concern but no that….was something specific to me." midroiay replied

"Was it something to do with your quirk?" sitch asked

"Yes, of sorts it was." Midoriya replied, looking towards Uraraka who looked back.

"Is this something that happens often? I don't want you to be out in the field and something like that happening to you." sitch said in worry.

"Oh no, it's nothing that severe sir, it was a special case scenario that it occurred, I think it was due to "how" we got here." Midoriya said with some nuance, he didn't know where they were currently so he decided not to leak secret information carelessly.

"Oh no need to choose your words here, I have shut down all the camera's and the sound coming from this room, so feel free to speak although I'm glad that you kept it in mind. That brings me to the second reason that I'm here but I'll wait until you are properly dressed so we can speak while we are on the way to your friends as this concerns them as well. we washed your gi for you so you can just put it on and I'll be waiting outside.`` Sitch said, placing Midoriya's karate gi down on the bed and walking out of the room.

As sitch exited the room both midoriya and uraraka 's minds started to connect the dots of the position of midoriya's clothes being on the bed currently which meant that midoriya currently had on…midoriya did a quick looked down and sure enough under his hospital gown he was only in his underwear…he shakily looked up at uraraka who was staring at him probably thinking the same thing her face as red a tomato and just before midoriya could say anything she quickly ran outside saying that she would wait for him out their as well. Midoriya mentally thumped himself at what he did as he steadily and slowly put his karate gi back on and made his way out of the door, the couple eyes never met as they made their way down the hall each only sharing brief glances at each other as they moved.

"I….I like your karate gi." uraraka managed out as they got outside into the open air.

"Than…thank you." midoriya mumbled out as well, bang had made him a karate gi for him to practice in, it had a green color scheme with white inner highlights going up his middle and collar with a black half-sleeve shirt and the similar slippers that bang wears.

The three got into a car and started to drive towards the hero association HQ he two love birds in the back seat was still incredibly awkward with each other for a couple of minutes of the drive, neither were in relationships before this one so they didn't really know how to proceed with one another but what they were doing now…didn't feel wrong, maybe it was better for them to proceed on their own pace they didn't have to be overly intimate with each other just because they were officially an item, they could take it slow and have those moments form naturally like the other day uraraka began to think, the thought completely removing all of her embarrassment of the situation as she looked at deku, his eyes soon met her and he seemed to understand the meaning behind the gaze. She was curious about what Deku wanted to try and tell her the other day but she would respect his privacy on when he would feel comfortable enough to tell her.

"About the other day I hope this goes without saying that what you read on those documents should not make it to the public. I can't monitor you two enough not to inform your friends but I please implore you that if you do treat this secret as drastically as the one of your true origins ok. " Sitch said his voice and demeanor turned icy serious as he stared at the two teens in the backseat through the mirror again disrupting their moment and snapping them into the serious atmosphere.

"Who did that anyways? Was it a rogue monster?" Uraraka asked, remembering the blood that coated the walls and the broken bodies of all those people, making a shiver run down her spine, just thinking about if one of her friends was in that pile. Sitch shook his head before directly looking at Midoriya for a moment before looking back towards the road.

"It was a person, a fellow criminal, a weird one at that he said that he admired monsters and wanted to become one. He said that he will return in six month but will continue to "hunt" hero's until then." sitch remarked

"Do we know his name? ``Midoriya asked this guy began to give him stain vibes and depending on how strong he was he could be a danger to his friends.

" We do, however it is not my right to say, your teacher bang has taken specific interest in this trouble maker and has assured me that he will see to these matters personally and wished for the association to not interfere." Sitch stated, making Midoriya ponder on who could this individual be, whoever it was it caused bang to get seriously riled up which means that this man could prove to be extremely dangerous even more reason to tell his friends about this hunter just so they could keep an eye out on their surroundings.

The car pulled up to the association and their classmates were already in the common room as midoriya and uraraka came in to join them, midoriya was greeted by plethora of relieved remarks about his well being and glad to see that he was ok, ojiro told him that he had brought his hero costume back from bang's dojo and left it on his bed. Midoriya noticed that Iida and sero were back as well and they chatted for a couple of minutes before sitch decided to come in. The room went silent again as he took to the middle of the room and pressed a few buttons on the screen before the tv lit up again showing schematics of some kind, it was of the human nervous system Iida and momo both noticed.

"If this is about another one of your "experiments running loose you can, can it.`` Bakugo remarked with a gruff voice, sitch face slightly widened in surprise at the boy's comment but his face naturally petered out into his normal bald expression.

"Yes, once again I apologize for the incident that happened a few weeks back." sitch replied, the explosive teen merely rolled his eyes.

"Is…is it true that you're experimenting on them?" Koda asked, his hands rubbing amongst each other in nerves.

"Yes…we use monsters to…help humanity whether that be to help fight against them, enhance our knowledge or improve our technology and science. But that is not the reason I'm here speaking with you all today- I" sitch stopped as he looked closer near koda's feet seeing the small bear creature laying down on the floor. He had received the report from child emperor of the events that transpired on the mountain but he had only had the chance to read it this morning but he didn't really believe it, this kid could hold the potential for a breakthrough for his program. But he will have to save that for later for now on to his presentation.

"The reason I'm speaking to you all today, is actually about yourselves." Sitch said intriguing the students in the area.

"Is there something wrong sir?" Iida asked

"Nothing that should be troubling but something that I think that you all should know, when you arrived we had assumed you were similar to our humanity here just with the lack of these quirk factor you posses but after a closer inspection of your friend here, there seems to be a even more psychological difference between the two humanities." sitch remarked.

"Psychological? Are you referring to thoughts?" Momo suggested.

"Not thoughts but more like emotions in simplest terms, you all feel more than the rest of us do." sitch explained

"Hey are you calling us sissies?" Kaminari and mineta both blurted out, gaining both of them a jab from jiro's earphone jacks, causing them to roll around in pain for a moment once they were done sitch continued to explain.

"What I mean by that, is that your body physically reacts differently to emotional stimuli. Your brains and neurons seemed to react and produce way quicker than that of an average person. It almost matched that of monsterizations in certain aspects." sitch said.

"And what does all this mean in practical terms." Bakugo's rough voice sounded off again.

"Well it means that all of the emotions that we experience are dull compared to yours for example A-city, a horrible tragedy that no one saw coming….do you know how long it took for people to continue forwards?" Sitch inquired to his audience.

"At least two weeks?" Toru suggested raising her hand.

"No more than 3 days." sitch replied, earning gasps from all class 1A even bakugo.

"That's impossible just a mere three days after an entire city was wiped out, that borderline sociopathic." tokoyami denounced.

"It is true. We believe that humanity has developed this way to prevent monsterization from occurring too frequently within us." sitch said

"Why are you informing us of this?" ojiro asked

"I wanted you all to know just in case something happens in the future, we don't know how this world could have affected you all or if your time spent here will change that or if monsterization can occur in you at all. But if it can manifest within you, then due to your psychological difference you could be at bigger risks than the normal person." sitch advised. The class was a flurry of murmurs and a silent but panicked conversation amongst each other. Before Iida spoke up.

"We thank you for bringing this to our attention, may I recommend monthly check ups to ensure that if such changes commences we can be prepared for ir?" Iida inquired, surprisingly sitch slightly.

"Yes that would be wise, we also don't know if there are any diseases/parasites that you may have unknowingly carried over from your world that we aren't prepared to combat here so we wanted to run some more test on you all for safe measure, normally this would have happened before we let you all interact with the populus but given the current climate of the world we didn't have time to conduct them." sitch said

"What do you mean by that?" Shoji asked, Sitch took a glance at Midoriya before addressing the question.

"Our world was prophesied to be in grave danger by a great seer, I'll let your friends here fill you in on the details but just know that something is coming and I fear we may not have the strength to stop it." Sitch said ominously looking towards the teens in the room.

"However on a lighter note, we are assigning you all your own personal housing quarters. We request that you gather your things and we will meet you all outside to take you there." sitch said heading to the door, he took one last glance back at the class first and then at the small bear cub then to the presumed couple of the group.

"If you all need further accommodations for pets or for others perhaps a larger bed, be sure to let the staff know and we will be sure to try to see if we can do so." Sitch said before leaving the room and the class in silence again.

"I can understand the pet comment but who did he refer to by the larger bed?" todoroki said curiously….mina's eyes and body shifted with speed unheard of as she narrowed her gaze on uraraka and midoriya who were trying their best to look nonchalant about the comment but their body language, blushing faces and their new find space from each other already gave them away.

"OOOH! SOMETHING Happened!" Mina nearly screeched, making her way over to Uraraka, almost bulldozing over everyone in her way, to catch Uraraka just as she started to float off towards the ceiling. She grabbed the girl's hands to see her blushing face.

"You got to tell me." Mina said, looking at the girl with a wide almost wicked smile, toru soon joined in as well on the teasing as well, meanwhile midoriya wasn't free either both mineta, kaminari and sero were on him questioning him on what had happened between the two of them the night before in the hospital while they were alone. Midoirya, seeing the girl under similar scrutiny for his mistake, collected a breath and let out high yell.

"IT WAS ME! …..I…ugh …I had moved uraraka from her chair next to me in bed because I thought it would be more comfortable…..uhm but ..but we didn't do anything else I swear.`` Midoirya said quickly, laying out the situation for the class. The class listened intently.

"Of course the dork wouldn't do anything, like he has the balls to." bakuog said with a chuckle.

"Aww, at least he showed that he cares for her well being. Ribbit ." tsu remarked

"Be that as it may, two students of the opposite sex sharing the same bed is highly immoral midoirya. Which brings me to my next point of instructing you two on proper relationship methods if you are to continue in these affairs' ' Iida reprimanded chopping his arms in the air, causing the class to laugh at them more.

"Oh brother, Iida teaching people about relationships would probably just be as bad as kaminari." Sero said with a snicker.

"Hey, I got game." Kaminari replied, making the guys laugh.

"Sure you do pal. Sure you do.`` Sero said with a pat on the shoulder.

"Anyways we should not keep the association members waiting, we should pack with speed and be outside within the hour everyone." Iida said towards the class gesturing for everyone to get a move on and out the door.

Everyone grabbing all of their things took little over an hour to accomplish, Iida didn't have many thing with him that wasn't already in his duffle bag that he took along with flash, he noticed that besides him and sero their other classmates had at least two luggage bags of clothes and other collectables which he figured made sense given they were away from everyone. The teens all stepped outside and was met with a large limo like before after putting their bags inside, they all got in and were driven slowly down the street into the lower areas of the association before coming to a stop around 40 minutes from when they originally got in, the crew got out and examined their new house and just like the others in this makeshift city it was completely colored black and lacked any visible windows but they were ascertained that it does contain some at least and visual monitors that examine outside of the building.

As the group of teens made their way inside, they were told that there were 20 rooms in the entire building, each were similar to the rooms they were staying in previously which meant they each had their own bathrooms and accommodations, they had a total of 5 washers and dryers however which the girls and guy's split among themselves. The building had one large living room as they entered with multiple couches and loveseats, along with a large 70 inch plasma screen tv, the kitchen wasn't as large being normal sized being able to fit around 5 people before becoming cramped. After surveying the bottom area for sometime it came to pick out where people would sleep. Iida immediately suggested that the boy's and girls be separated again just how they were back in their world and after some initial complaint by Mina who tried to rally at least some support he ultimately got his way the girls would be on the second floor while the guy's would be on the third floor.

The group had all started to get settled in as they put their stuff down in their rooms before all meeting downstairs again, the group ran into a new problem.

"So those idiots left us in a place with no food huh?" bakugo said

"Guess they were tired of us free loading off them." sato said

"Well that means that we need to acquire food ourselves and go shopping for groceries." Iida announced.

"Me and mineta will have to decline, the interview happens today so we have to go meet with king and sweet mask now to prepare. Make sure you don't miss it." Aoyama announced with a twirl as the two went to leave.

"Well me, sero , and midoriya will go out shopping for clothes. I hope that you all can manage to bring home a well balanced diet of food and vegetables to eat." Iida announced to the class.

"Don't worry Iida, I'll make sure to keep them from going crazy and bakugo's going to be theirs as well. He keeps the more troublesome people in line, ``Sato mentioned.

"Good then I'll leave it to you all, when does the interview start?" Iida questioned.

"I think around 5pm , ribbit." tsu replied

"Alright that gives us around 5 hours to get things sorted, we'll see you all then." The group made their way outside when Jiro noticed that Koda was coming along with them.

"You aren't coming koda?"

"No…no I don't want to leave Aki here by herself and I don't want to cause a commotion if she comes along with us." koda said

"Oh, ok do you want anything while were there?" jiro asked

"No, it's alright…umm actually a steak for aki could be good. I'll pay you back later, I promise " koda mentioned

"Nah it's cool don't worry about it." Jiro replied before heading out with everyone else.

"Do you think it's a good Idea to leave koda alone with that thing?" kaminari asked

"That "thing" has a name… it's aki and you should remember it, charge dolt. " Jiro remarked seriously before caring on past the blonde

"Geez sorry." Kaminari said, not sure what got on the girl's nerves.

The group got into the limo again and drove off, they went to the next closest city to them which was O-city. After dropping off the first group of guys at a shopping center while the rest of them drove off to the nearest grocery store. As the group got out of the car and approached the store, bakugo made sure to everyone that if he found too much junk food or similar crap in their carts that he would personally explode their faces off, the group got the message loud and clear and once they got into the store everyone split off into their separate groups.

Uraraka and tsu left towards the cooking section, the two girls hoping that their favorite food was there and to their luck it was, uraraka found some uniquely designed mochi and tsu managed to find some jelly. Momo and jiro had split off from the ground as well both girls didn't really have a favorite food per say but they both had similar taste, the first place they went to was obviously the tea section as momo was curious on what this worlds tea was like after picking out a few interesting topics the two continued on to some food and snacks that they and the rest of the class would enjoy, there was a brief stop to get aki her steak before the two continued on and came upon a strange sight. It was Todoroki. He was in the asle on his knees looking towards the ground. Momo immediately rushed over to the fallen boy.

"Todoroki what's wrong?"

"They don't…have it….." Todoroki murmured slowly.

"They don't have what?" Jiro remarked as she heard the usually stoic teen.

"They….they don't have soba…this world doesn't even know it exists…this place is cursed." Todoroki said amonosly getting into the fetal position. Jiro looked around before noting some ramen cups.

" They got ramen, isn't that basically the same thing?" jiro questioned, todoroki immediately got out of the fetal position and glared at the girl, the intense stare making jiro take a step back.

"You said what?" Todoroki looked almost as anonymous in that moment as he did during his begging days of class, Momo quickly got between them to deescalate the situation.

"Well…that..that's unfortunate to hear todoroki, how about we just find the ingredients for you instead and we can make some home-made soba." Momo advised.

"I….I….can't make soba…not well anyways…I've only attempted so twice and succeeded once during our team-up assignments…wait." Todoroki stopped talking and fully stood up again, placing both of his hands on Momo's shoulders, causing the girl's heart to race.

"Your quirk…momo… you can create soba can't you?" Todoroki asked, his face was full of hope and part of momo hated that she would have to break that hope right now. She grabbed both of his hands and pulled them off her shoulders down but still held on to them as she replied.

"I'm sorry todoroki but…I don't know…the atomic configuration of it." Momo said and she watched as his face fell and she caught him as he nearly crumpled to the floor again.

"Don't worry I'm sure bakugo or sato can make you some soba if you ask them..it'll be ok, alright let's go get the ingredients." Momo said, trying to console the teen, Jiro looked at the interaction with some sense of bitterness before announcing that she would catch up with them later and leaving the two to go off alone.

Kaminari, kirishima, and bakugo were together and bakugo was keeping the secondary idiot on a tight leash as he knew the electric teen was nothing but a teen at heart and would just buy endless sweets if he had the chance, kirishima on the other hands was a lot more reserved mostly focusing around things that would help in his work out like proteins shakes, energy drinks, and carbs. Bakugo got himself a handful of spicy foods and spices, believing that sato would get more of the raw things. He did have pause on some of the others though and speaking of others, the group of three ran into the two women troublemakers toru and mina and their baskets were filled up with nothing but sweets, chips, and other junk food despite his warning before they got in there.

"Hey…fellows.."mina said rather inconspicuously

"What the hell did I tell you before we got in here." bakugo silently yelled.

"Oh come on! It's our money we should be able to spend on what we want!" toru complained

" We are shopping for everyone, not just yourself." bakugo argued back.

"Come on, bakugo a little bit of junk food never hurt anybody and I'm sure everybody would like it as well'' Kaminari said siding with the girls all looking at him with puppy dog eyes, making the explosive teen grit his teeth before exhaling a breath.

"Fine if you idiots want to rot your teeth and your diet, then go ahead." bakugo relented, hurrying himself away from him, all three of them high-fiving at their successes as they went to look for some other detectible to find.

Tokoyami was by himself and after wandering around the store for sometime he finally found his ultimate prize, the apple section their was numerous apples types here ranging from candy apples, caramel apples, chocolate apples, and even some unique ones like fried apples, he never had that one before and it tempted him greatly… a voice from behind him jarred him of his thoughts however.

"I..thought I'd find you here, ribbit."

"Oh tsu….you were looking for me?" tokoyami asked his feathers bristling in response to how close the girl was to him. It rubbed up against his helmet .

"Yeah, we're all getting ready to check out and just wanted to tell you that… I remember you saying that you like apples so I figured I would check here first.`` Tsu mentioned.

"Aww, you remembered?" dark shadow said as he popped out and quickly wrapped around the girl in a hug she returned the gesture by rubbing the shadow creature on his head.

"Dark shadow you're causing a scene." tokoyami the hidden command evident in his voice as he scanned his surroundings as certain people started to look over their way.

"Oops…sorry." dark shadow said as he quickly returned back into tokoyami, the people that turned their way slowly but surely snapped out of their daze and continued on with their shopping.

"I guess having to hide yourself away is fairly new to you isn't it. ribbit" tsu remarked

"It isn't." Tokoyami said simply and somewhat with a deeper tone than usual, he threw a couple of apples in his basket and hurried off to check out himself.

leaving tsu there to follow along before a voice sounded next to her as she passed an aisle.

"That was a cute moment between you two." the voice of jiro seemingly emerged from the shadows of the aisle.

"I didn't think Mina rubbed off on you so much , ribbit." tsu replied simply

"She hasn't. I just grew curious about some things. I don't know for sure but I think tokoyami may have a crush on you." Jiro said, surprising the frog girl slightly.

"Come on now, the dark and mysterious tokoyami having a crush on someone? Other Than my chemical romance?" tsu asked, jiro laughed at that but still continued on.

"I don't know, well I've read that some birds like to puff out their feathers when courting someone and like to preen them to show interest and dark shadow seems to like getting pretty close to you." Jiro replied.

"Tokoyami is not a bird, ribbit." tsu said

"I know that, but quirks can contain some of the traits of them, you should know that more than anyone" Jiro said.

"I guess soo and what about it?" tsu asked, slightly blushing

"Huh?" jiro seemed confused

"Why tell me this? Ribbit." Tsu asked.

"I guess I just wanted to let you know, what are your thoughts about him?" jiro asked

"I…..I think they're both cute..ribbit." tsu murmured

"Really? Well good thing mina didn't hear you say that. But now I'm curious how?" jiro asked

"I don't know…I just like weird things , that aren't just normal, it may just be a result of my quirk but it's hard to describe." asui said

"Interesting. But I do get that feeling sometimes, I think that's why I'm drawn to music so much as well other than my parents also being musicians `` Jiro commented.

The two talked some more about various things before they got to the group who were just finishing up checking out from the store and after filling out of the store and waiting for the car to get back, uraraka had informed them that the guy's had finished up shopping little before and are coming now, the limo came and everyone help put the bags in the car and they were off back to their house. After unloading all of the bags and putting things squared away. The class had around 1 hour left before the big interview commenced, and everyone spent that time their own way.

The Big Show: Sweet mask, King , class 1A

Mineta and Aoyama had just got done suiting up in their hero costumes and were waiting for their que to go on stage, despite some initial grumblings, mineta was cool with how his new costume looked while not being as brightly colored as before he still maintained the same theme. Sweet mask had gotten rid of his bowl/diaper shorts and slimed it down to be more like white cutoff jeans, his purple underside was changed with a similar dark violet color that resembled aoyama's armors, his bright yellow cape was changed with a pure white one and the stem that was located on his head was switched out with a slingshot device in the appearance of a stem that hung loosely off his waist, his bright gloves and boots were more subdued than previously and were colored a forest green color as well, that matched the slingshot device. The two young hero's was currently backstage as the interview just began to start.

Interviewer: Good evening audience, I won't waste your time on introducing ourselves as you already know who we are and will get right to what you all been waiting for and that is our two very special guests, sweet mask and king!

The announcer said with giving the two pro hero's a standing ovation as they came out from off stage and sat down, sweet mask was almost a natural at this coming out with the perfect walk and gate as he majestically sat down in the seats provided, king on the other hands was a lot more skittish and scared just by how he approached he nearly fell in fact but he managed well enough to sit down and not look directly into the camera, mineta had mentioned that king had to take some medicine to calm his heart beat down or it would have ruined the audio so maybe it was just that, aoyama pondered.

Interviewer: For those of you that may not know, these two are some of the strongest pillars of the hero world, sweet mask is multi-talented star and hero association executive rank evaluator and king is the strongest hero-no the strongest being on the planet. As long as his engine keeps pounding all monsters should beware his presence. Do any of you two legends have anything to say to the audience before we begin?

Sweet mask: I think I can speak for both of us that we thank our adoring fans everyday for their support everyday no matter how some other organizations try to frame us. We are hopeful that the people can put their faith in us to explain everything they need to know or want to know.

Interviewer: ooh, spicy little response there from the hero association but speaking of these other organizations, let's get into what brought you all down. About a month ago the police had made some serious allegations against the association with some fairly darning evidence and witnesses. I'm sure many have read this report and seen the images they displayed online, how does the association respond?

(On the stage behind them the police report was displayed above them on a jumbo screen.)

Sweet mask: well we would like to clarify that the teen you see on your screen is not a monster but a person like everyone else.

Interviewer: I don't know many people that can create multiple eyes and arms like that, he said in a rather joking manner.

Sweet mask: you would be right under normal circumstances but as everyone knows now we aren't under normal circumstances as little over a month ago we were attacked by alien invaders.

Interviewer: Are you implying that these kids are aliens! The interviewer said with makeshift drama

Sweet mask: Nothing as silly as that, I ensured the people that the bastards that did that to the marvelous A-city were swiftly dealt with. No, these are normal everyday people just like you and I. well that is they were…before the attack. They are lucky survivors of the attack on A-city , unfortunately or fortunately for them this came at a cost. We don't know the specifics of why but we assume that the exotics matter used in the aliens weapons had altered they're DNA and changed their biology granting them new abilities some of these abilities manifested differently in each child.

Interviewer: WOW! That's a stunning revolution! Is that the reason the association had decided to park their headquarters on the remains of A-city?

Sweet mask: it is one of the many reasons we had yes and it was a surprise to us as well… we didn't really know what to do with them but a major focus was to help train them to hone their powers so they wouldn't be a danger to themselves or others. Due to some of their looks we wanted to shelter them away from the public eye and as you can tell from this interview for good reason.

Interviewer: So what you're telling us is that the police jumped the gun and made assumptions to shame you all, even despite the heroic deed that you all did for those poor kids.

Sweet mask: As unfortunate it is for me to say, yes that seems to be the gist of it, once we determined that they had a solid grasp of their powers we wanted them to get out there and experience the world again of course under supervision of a professional hero for extra precaution. The police would have you believe these recently orphaned kids are monsters but they are far from the sort in fact we have two of them here today with us.

Interviewer: Indeed we do, how about we bring them out today here today, viewers say hello to solar flare and grape-a-pult.

Mineta and Aoyama both made their way on to the stage and shook hands with their interviewer before taking their seats.

Interviewer: now compared to your friend here on the report you two look rather normal, what abilities do you have?

Sweet mask: I think it would be better if they just show you. Wouldn't it?

interviewer : that sounds like a marvelous idea! Give the folks at home something to really look at.

Both of the teens agreed and got up to begin their routine after the set was almost cleared away, the first part began with mineta using his pop off orbs he threw them into each of the corners of the set before bouncing off one that he set at his feet, experimentally maneuvering around the room and placing miniature mirrors on top of each one. When he was done aoyama expertly targets one of the mirrors with his navel laser having it reflect around the room off of each mirror placed he shot out a total of 5 laser and both he and mineta stood still among them as they zoomed around the duo, aoyama raised his right hand to the sky palms faced out a moment later as mineta once again used his pop off orbs to bounce around the room using his last pocket mirror to reflect all of aoyama's laser back into the palm of his raised hand which were absorbed into his suit and than as all the laser were absorbed shot out of his shoulder pauldrons almost like makeshift wings with the wings still activated both he and mineta took a bow in front of the camera, signaling the end of their performance. The show soon went into commercial break right after so that they could get everything back to normal.

"I like their new costumes." Mina said to everyone who gathered in the living room.

"I'm surprised Mr. sparkles changed into something so dark, I like it." jiro remarked

"Their little performance wasn't bad either." Toru complimented as well.

"I remembered briefly watching them before but that ending was new, it looked cool." Kaminari said.

"I agree, I'm proud that they were able to pull it off, especially with the distractions they had during the week." Momo said, looking over towards kaminari and mina, who turned away bashfully.

"But still I'm concerned with the way this interview is being conveyed." ojiro remarked.

"What do you mean? I'm fairly sure that after this you guys won't have to wear those tech meshes anymore." kirishima said

"He means for the police, the way that their speaking not only bolsters the associations reputation but also similarly deconstructs their enemy's position." Shoji explained., tokoyami nodded along and added.

"The hate and distrust that the police had against us will naturally turn against them because of this which I assume is the association's real purpose of this event."

"So they're trying to turn people against the police but why? Ribbit." Tsu asked.

"To consolidate power, If i were to guess." tokoyami replied

"So they're just using us as propaganda?" jiro questioned getting slightly agitated.

"I told you they seem like the kind that doesn't mind getting their hands dirty." bakugo voice from the kitchen.

"that does seem to be the case." momo replied

"Although their methods seem questionable there is no denying that the efforts will benefit us in the end as well." Iida said

"That seems bitter sweet though given the push back the police will have because of this." Uraraka said.

"Politics is often muddled with such nuances, I'm afraid." Iida replied.

"It's about to start again." sero called out to sato and bakugo who were getting everything ready for those that were in the living room. The two teens came back holding two large pizzas each and set it down for everyone to get a slice.

"I wonder what they're gonna talk about next." sto said as he went to sit down again.

Interviewer: welcome back audience, I hope you all have been paying close attention to the show so far as we discuss the latest about the rumors surrounding the hero association and dispelling the myths that have been circulating with recently here with sweet mask, king, and two teens apart of the very said controversy solar flare and grape-a-pult.

Now you two weren't affected as affected by these rumors spread by the police as your friends were. Can either of you two shed your thoughts on how they felt about this when it transpired?

Aoyama: While initially surprised, my friends understood why it happened. But even despite that we still wanted to venture out into the world and help out as heroes.

Interviewer: Well isn't that the most chiverous thing, despite the world potentially being against them for how they look they will still risk their lives to protect the very same people that may condemn them.

Sweet mask: these teens are exemplary heroes in fact when partaking in the heroes association's written test all 20 of them scored perfect 10s on the association's heroic rating system. They all have the heart of a true hero.

Interviewer: That is marvelous to hear! So citizens you have nothing to be afraid of if they are near. But let's stop speaking of your friends like they don't have their own names themselves, we should introduce them to you all.

Sweet mask: yes, we will go in alphabetical order of their names, which will be kept private for their own sake but we will teach you their hero names and a little about their ability.

Interviewer: Yes and first and foremost is none other than solar flare C-class hero rank 88, you all have already seen a preview of his abilities before the break but will let him explain what that entails.

Aoyama: My ability is fairly simple, it allows me to shoot lasers. From my navel.

Interviewer: interesting moving on to the next hero you may have seen her parading around the streets of Y-city, pink mist c-class hero rank 93. (a picture of mina pops up on the display behind them) You got that right people this is not an elaborate costume but that is how she really looks. Can either of you give a basic rundown of her ability?

Mineta: yes other than her extravagant looks, she has the power to produce acid from anywhere on her body.

Interviewer: ouch make sure to keep your hands to yourselves boys when talking to her unless you may lose them or anything else you're fond of if you know what i mean?( He said while winking towards the camera) The next hero on our list is the recently rumored toad of q-city, frogger C-class hero rank 72. What can you guys tell us about this mysterious girl?

Aoyama: Just like her name implies she has all the powers and abilities of a frog. And she refers to being labeled as a frog over a toad actually.

Interviewer: you all heard it here folks, the frog of q-city, the next hero is an explosive one. God of destruction: dynamite , A-class rank 20. With a name like that his power needs no explanation but Wouldn't this name cause some confusion among the people with a hero of a similar name?

Sweet mask: you are correct and dynamite man has gracefully surrendered his title for the teen in question, his new name is now called ground zero. We were initially going to call him that but solar flare informed me of its importance to the young hero, so we decided to give it to him.

Interviewer: Well thank you ground zero for your cooperation and helping these teens' dreams come true. The next hero on our list is a unique one, your eyes are not deceiving you folks that girl is really invisible. She is C-class rank 300 spirit of light. Can you guys give us a summary of her power?

Mineta: other than her invisibility she has the ability to manipulate light in small ways.

Interviewer: fascinating, well as long as she doesn't use that invisibility for nefarious purposes, then everything should be fine.( the interviewer said with a laugh) the next hero is the speedster Ingenium, a strange name for sure.

Aoyama: his hero name has significant importance to him in a family sense and he wears it proudly to honor them. His abilities are the engines allowed in his legs which allows him to run really fast.

Interviewer: A teen that carries the memories of his family wherever he goes, how courageous and noble of him. The next hero is one that will have the speakers blowing, stereo queen C-class rank 90. What's the deal with this heavy rocker?

Mineta: she's the classic punk biker chick with deadly vocals not only in her ability which allows her to shoot out soundwaves but as well as normal as she is a great singer.

Interviewer: OOh? Is a duet between her and sweet mask on the horizon anytime soon?

Sweet mask: not for the moment no but if the fans demand it and she is ok with singing in front of large crowds I'm sure we can make something happen.

Interviewer: you hear that folks, if you want to hear what the lady sounds like on the stage make sure to go and ask for it in letters to either. The next hero is just as electrifying as our instruments. Lighting: Raijin , C-class rank 80, he holds the lighting title. Is this an official statement that he's trained under former pro lighting volten?

Sweet mask: unfortunately no, we weren't able to get into contact with volten for some time but we watch what footage we could of him closely and applied it in the young hero's training he holds many similarities to the boy's powers and I hope if he is listening to this that he comes and allows the boy to train under him.

Interviewer: well the balls in your court volten if your listing will you deny such a promising young aspect his dream of meeting his most alike hero? For the next hero we have the rock focused hero red riot B-class rank 70, what can he do?

Aoyama: he has the ability to harden his body into something like armor and he's a very chivalrous person as well.

interviewer : so he is literally the knight in shining armor of your group that's rather interesting. The next hero is one that is one with nature, the hero Forest lord C-class can you tell the audience about him?

Aoyama: He has the power to communicate and control animals.

Interviewer: does this power extend to monsters as well?

Sweet mask: we are currently still working on that topic. At first it showed no signs of success but currently some projects have bore fruit so please pay no mind to any creatures that may be around him as he has them fully under control.

Interviewer: That's good to hear folks, maybe the police report about monster fighting monsters may no longer be a myth after all. Thats' half of them for now we'll be right back after another short commercial break.

"I'll kill that purple midget," Jiro remarked through flushed cheeks as her hands covered her face.

"I think you have a beautiful voice, it wouldn't kill you to let it out more often." Kaminari remarked which only earned him a poke in the eye from the girl in quisition. As he rolled around on the floor in pain.

"I don't remember asking you for your opinion, idiot." Jiro replied dismissively.

"Why did they portray me as some evil person that will melt somebody's face off? And why do all my names seem like soda names!" Mina complained, throwing a tantrum.

"Well it beats whatever they were trying to imply with me. Like the only person that would use invisibility for "nefarious" purposes is that short stack that was speaking." Toru complained as well.

"Well I like your new hero name, it's creative." ojiro said trying to ease the tension

"Creativity, from someone that named himself tailman?" Toru said with roll of her eyes

"From the girl that named herself invisible girl ? yes." ojiro said simply, earning a bunch of uuuus from some of the classmates instigating.

"You win this one tailman, I wonder what name they're going to give you.'' Toru said somewhat in spite.

"Whatever it is, it'll probably be better than mine….they named me after an ancient video game. Ribbit ." asui said, a little annoyed.

"At least people will stop confusing you for a toad." tokoyami said, trying to ease the mood.

"I guess that's the silver lining ." asui said, with a smile towards the raven headed boy and just like jiro said his hairs on his head puffed out a bit as he looked away from her.

"Hey why did you guy's get to keep your hero names anyways? Kirishima , bakugo, Iida. this isn't fair" mina complained again

"Hey, hey…I had nothing to do with it, I didn't even know what they were going to be doing," Kirishima said in his defense

"Hmph they knew better than to change my name. But I bet you 10 bucks that, that other hero didn't know anything about this." bakugo said simply

"As was said, Aoyama knew the importance of my hero name from my family and fought to keep it that way. I must thank him when he gets back here for that honor." Iida said with a tear coming down one eye playfully

"I don't even know the meaning of my name." kaminari remarked

"Idiot" jiro murmured again

"Raijin at least back in our worlds was the name of the thunder god." momo explained

"Really? Wow then that's definitely a cooler name than I picked, I may actually stick with that when we get back." kaminari remarked

"I'm still in favor of jammey-way," Jiro said in response.

"Oh? I think stereo queen is better than earphone jacks as well." kaminari said in reply which earned him another poke in the ear this time.

The mention of going home stirred something in deku and a noticeable shiver went down his spine, still thinking about the other day, uraraka must have noticed and was going to say something but he quickly averted her attention away by starting another conversation instead.

"I guess that's the way they're gonna justify you running around with aki." Midoriya said to the group.

"Yes ..well I guess it's the only way they would really accept her being around me." koda murmured back

"Well as long as she can go out and have fun, then it's alright." mina said scratching the bear cub behind its ears

" The show is about to continue again. I'm curious what our names will be, ``Sato remarked as everyone turned their attention back to the tv.

---

Interviewer: welcome back audience and we're back to unveil the next 10 new heroes! The next hero may surprise with how high he is but introducing your newest member of the S-class! rank 14 green savior deku, deku that's a very interesting name. What is the significance of it?

Aoyama: Well for him the word stands for never giving up and he lived by that in everything he does he was an inspiration for a lot of us to continue moving forwards. I'm not going to spoil how he originally came up with the name but his idea to stick with it so far has come from a special Lady. but that's all I'll say about that.

Interviewer: aww leaving things on a hanger like that aren't you just a tease, well for all the ladies out there it may seem like this young hero may be taken so save all those love letters that you all may be writing. The next hero is also one we have presently on the stage right now. C-class rank 200 grape-a-pult, tell us about yourself.

Mineta: my ability allows me to take off orbs from my head and stick them to surfaces and allows me to bounce off of them as I showed previously to the lovely audience. While not much on the surface I think with the help of king, I can really expand my horizons.

Interviewer: Speaking of the legendary man, King you have been quiet for sometime now and given your reputation that should come off as no surprise but what has lead you to choosing this particular student to train under you?

King: ( crap, crap ,crap do I really have to speak, Ok, ok,,,ok just calm down. We rehearsed this) we…well you see…I believe that a group is only as strong as its weakest link therefore he was my choice.

Interviewer: Interesting remarks from king himself but if that is true wouldn't it be wiser to choose the invisible girl going off ranks, she is the lowest among the group .

Sweet mask: there are a lot more to ranks than pure strength and likewise the choices of teachers were more concerned around adaptability and connection. King and grap-a-pult shared a lot in common.

Interviewer: Interesting a look into the king's psyche but let's continue on to the next young hero C-class rank 70 Silver wukong, a young martial artist that already had 4 black belts under his rope and going for a fifth under as you guessed it by his name none other than silver fang himself. Any words you would like to say about him?

Mineta: while his power may seem tame with it just being a tail , he really tries hard to make it work for himself.

Sweet mask: In fact bang's brother bomb is teaching spirit of light as well.

Interviewer: Really under two different brothers with philosophies on the completely opposite spectrums that will probably lead to a heavy rivalry between the two of them right?

Mineta: far from it actually, they are actually extremely close with one another, them learning under two separate brothers may even deepen that bond into something even more. (mineta said before winking at the camera.)

Interviewer: oh? Another hint at pairing within the group, how splendid. The next on our list is an accomplished baker from what I've heard fitting for his name as sugar man C-class rank 95. What can you tell us about his ability?

Aoyama: his power allows him to quintuple his strength after he ingest 10 grams of sugar. So naturally he has a bit of a sweet tooth.

Interview: Well I hope all that sugar doesn't rot his teeth,( he says with a laugh) now the next hero is another interesting one C-class rank 125 tape weaver, as his name implies I assume his power has something to do with tape?

Aoyama: You would indeed be correct, his elbows have been transformed, which allows him to produce and shoot out tape from them.

Interviewer: That's a very remarkable change, and monster roper shell better look out for his title of the best in the association at tying up monsters. The next hero is the one that started all of this, C-class rank 71 tank top tentocole, now what can you tell us about his abilities?

Sweet mask: as what you saw in the images that the police released he has the ability to sprout multiple body parts from his body which is why the image taken of him looked like, actually some back story behind that image was that tentocole was actually helping the police dealing with a monster attack and only after successfully dealing with the monster they shot at him. Shooting at the hand that helped you for shame I must do say so myself.

Interviewer: very shameful indeed the police should issue a sincere apology at once, but moving on from them the next hero is another surprise for you because this is probably the first of in a lifetime another S-class hero rank 16 frozen phoenix , that's right folks another S-class level hero this is a monumental blessing what gifts was this teen granted?

Mineta: he was granted the ability of ice and fire, his hair color is actually naturally like that which symbolizes which side does which.

Interviewer: I see so he will not only light a fire in girls hearts but out in the field as well, excellent! The next hero is on the complete other side of the spectrum, A-class rank 31 Tsukuyomi , what can you tell us about this strange bird-faced hero?

Sweet mask: this one is a strange case, he's more reserved compared to the rest of his friends and he is reluctant to share his full story with us which we completely understand but we currently hypothesis that when the attack came he was near a raven or had a pet raven and when he began to mutate they sort of fused into one being. His ability allows him to shoot out a sort of shadow creature to fight for him, we speculate that the creature may have been this raven as it shares resemblance.

Interviewer: well that surely isn't someone you would like to run into in the dead of night. The next hero may seem like your normal average girl but the secrets she poses could literally turn you upside down. C-class rank 100 hero uravity. What could you tell us about this charming brunette

Mineta: she got the power to manipulate gravity with only a touch of her hands.

Interviewer: interesting so be careful with handshakes or you might find yourself flying off like a balloon! The next hero is a special one, one coils argue that what is a god of destruction without its opposite? That's where this girl comes in God Of Creation: Neith C-class 97 , what kind of abilities does she possess?

Aoyama: just like her namesake she has the power of creation, if she knows what something is made of she can create it.

Interviewer: That is a really dangerous ability for someone to have and I'm sure some of our viewers are concerned about certain monetary issues.

Sweet mask: you have no reason to be concerned, we have made sure to instill in her more than all the others the gravity of her new abilities and to ensure that we have placed the extra precaution of limiting her to cards for purchase just so shop owners are fully comfortable.

Interviewer: well that is good news for me and I bet a few others well that's all of the young heroes for now but stick around as we answer a few questions to close out the show after this commercial break.

"That purple freak really is getting on my nerves, now." Toru announced as she waved her arms around sporadically to show her annoyance. She was glad that her face was just still invisible right now as she was blushing madly from what was said.

"The monkey king huh?" ojiro remarked his face flushed but trying to steer the topic away from what was about them .

"I guess with that tail of yours it makes sense and it pays respect to bang as well." sato remarked

"I think it's nice. It fits you just like momo's new hero name. Ribbit." tsu remarked

"Yes I do find it interesting that they gave us deity names and I guess when looking at it that way, tokoyami's name didn't have to change at all." Momo suggested looking at him.

"Who is neith?" jiro questioned

"Neith is an ancient Egyptian god that was said to have created the universe." Iida explained

"Ah creator that makes sense for your quirk and if people know it sounds badass as well." Kirishima said.

"Yeah, yeah whatever but what was that story about us? I'm not no dumb bird!" dark shadow remarked exiting out of tokoyami.

``It was a weird tale to tell but if it gets people to accept us better than so be it." tokoyami replied

"Why do you have a bird head tokoyami? Isn't it something to do with your quirk? Cuz I don't see the correlation at all" kaminari asked

"For that I do not know myself really, it could be hereditary. My grandfather was a bird mutant type similar to myself." tokoyami explained

"I think it's a similar case with me." Mina said, raising her hand. And Koda slowly joined suit as both of his parents looked different and didn't share his anivoice quirk.

"Well they kept your name, aren't you happy about that?" Mina said, looking to midoriya.

"Yeah and this world seems to not understand the original meaning behind it." Iida said, looking briefly over to bakugo who only rolled his eyes in return.

"Yup now they only know what uraraka told you it meant. ribbit." Tsu barked out before placing a hand over her mouth.

"Aww…isn't that so precious." Toru teased the duo who grew bright red in the face.

"I just really like the name, uraraka just opened my eyes to see that it could mean more than what others think it means." Deku mumbled out, and glanced over her way.

"Oh brother." bakugo said with a gag.

"What about you shoji? Your name basically remained the same just with the added honorifics." sato asked

"It was to be expected honestly, they had already made me an honorary tank top and this just made it official." shoji remarked casually with a shrug of his shoulder

"What about you sero, how do you like your new name?" kaminari asked

"Tape weaver sounds ok I guess it's more a mythical thing. I can see it as a side grade if anything, wish they were something more cool like what you got. " Sero remarked, rubbing his chin in thought.

"Well if their primary goal was naming us off of gods then that would be pretty hard to find a weaver male god as that was mostly seen as a female trait back during those days." Momo explained.

"What did it mean that I set ladies hearts on fire? I hope I'm not hurting anyone ." Todoroki commented, earning a laugh from his classmates.

"Oh my god todoroki you're just too precious, it only means that people think you're handsome, but I'm fairly sure that you set momo heart on fire." Mina teased. Making the girl gush in surprise as Todoroki looked at her.

"Oh no, no you're sorely mistaken." momo began to say

"So..I'm not handsome." Todoroki asked innocently and almost sad at the accusation which made her heart pound.

"I…never said that..it's just..ugh…well." Momo began to stammer out looking for a way out. Spotting the show about to commence again, she found it.

"Let's save this for another time, the show is about to continue again." momo said

"Smooth one there Juliet." Mina teased before everyone turned back to the tv.

Interviewer: welcome back audience, now that we're back it's time to get into some questions that some of you may be asking yourselves firstly I'm sure some of you may have had concerns the association has forced these kids into hero work, after surviving such a harrowing event why would they throw themselves into more danger after all, sweet mask what do you have to say to people that have these concerns?

Sweet mask: I can understand where people could get that impression but believe me when I say once we ensured that they had a solid control of their powers we offered them the opportunity to do anything they wanted to do, but they expressed to us that ever since a young age each of them wanted to become heroes and that ever since they acquired these powers it actually was a bitter sweet step in achieving that goal.

Interviewer: Now these kids have actually been in the field for about a month now and have been cited numerous times actually capturing monsters instead of killing them. Is this just begging jitters or is there something else to this?

Sweet mask: Yes, going through such a tragedy does affect someone they have seen enough death and destruction for potentially their entire lives so far and don't want to inflict such a thing on another living being. We have coined the group of teens internally as the non-killing army.

Interviewer: Interesting another group within the hero association, now I know some people may call into question some of these young hero's rankings especially given the given disparity among them, could you shed some light on that?

Sweet mask: Yes, while the disparity may seem strange please understand that these teens are still learning to use their powers they only had them for over a month and some of them are tricker to control then others. So Give them time I'm sure that they will shoot up the hero's ranking in no time as they gain experience and fans.

Interviewer: Well we eagerly await that, can you imagine how strong these teens will be, especially since the two of them are already in the S-class, I'm sure that even blast would be proud. Speaking of the hero, let's leave the teens for now and go to you king, a popular question that not only our audience but most likely the entire world. Who is stronger you or blast?

King: Blast is much stronger than me.

Interviewer: King's chivalry never ends everyone…maybe we will have to wait until we can get an interview with blast himself to get a real answer. (The interviewer said with another laugh) Now another question for you while we have you there were rumors along with witness testament that said a month ago you ran away from a robot monster in M-city park. Your thoughts on these rumors?

King had completely frozen up and his brain as he worked on a possible explanation on the event he couldn't just say that he ran away, this question wasn't in the interview what the hell man! King began to think as he looked around before spotting sweet mask who seemed to be looking intently at him and was waiting for him to say something. Aoyama saw things differently having spent enough time with the man to know that he was absolutely livid at the moment sweet mask had turned his head away from the camera's so that the veins sticking out of the side of his neck would not show and give his true emotions away.

Mineta: he didn't run away he came to save me from a giant crow monster.( after 5 minutes of nothing Mineta spoke up) king's eyes lit up at the moment remembering the day and constructing an alibi, he coughed before speaking up again.

King: Yes grape-a-pult is correct, having spotted the formerly new S-class hero demon cyborg also in the area I deduced that he could take care of the monster in the park while I go and save my student from danger.

Interviewer: Ensuring that your student is ok and delegating another issue to your fellow hero. Such an inspiring hero king is. Now how did you know that your protege would be in danger?

King: the engine

Interviewer: you heard it here first folks! A breaking discovery of one of the probably many uses of the king's engine has just been confirmed! Now for our final mystery for the day, if you are familiar with the dark web you may have recently come upon a photo of a mysterious invitation by the association addressed to criminals of the underworld to come to headquarters. Can you explain this mysterious photo rather confirming it or denying this out as a sham?

Sweet mask: I will not sugar code things, the invitation in that photo is real, but do not misunderstand our intentions. This was a trap deployed by the hero association to trap and capture as many criminals as possible to get them off the streets. The recent rise in monsters means that heroes do not have time to take care of problemed individuals. Unfortunately due to the secrecy of the operation and the surprising boldness of the number of criminals that attended we could not dictate enough strength to completely negate injuries of our own. for that reason the following A-class heroes won't be seen for sometime blue fire, heavy tank loin cloth , and magic trick man are all hospitalized for the time being the three of them successfully managed to take out dozens of B-class and C-class criminals all by themselves along with a few A-class criminals.

Interviewer: and just like that hero association still seeks to help us people even from the shadows. Don't forget to send get better soon cards to those brave gentlemen for their heroic efforts. Now for the final question of the day, some of the other heroes may be envious of these teens teaching under some of the best heroes in the association, can this be a beginning of a sort of mentorship program for heroes to train under the best of the best in the future or is this a one time thing due to the specialty of these teens powers?

Sweet mask: This is unfortunately a special occasion, a sort of penance for the S-classes' failure to protect A-city in the first place. However, depending on the results of this experiment, who knows what can happen. The association wants to increase the comradery between heroes the best we can in the association so while having the S-class teach lower ranked heroes is unlikely we will see what we can do it's just as king said we are only as strong as our weakest element.

Interviewer: there it is for all you up incoming heroes out there staying informed and maybe you could get your shot at working alongside higher ranked heroes, maybe even one of the S-class themselves. But that is all the time we have for today and we'll finish with closing statements from our guests.

King: I thank you for your support.

Aoyama: I will try to live up to the hero's spot that I have obtained.

Mineta: I will make an effort to make myself into a true hero.

Sweet mask: if you all have any more questions for these teens or simply want to send them your support, be sure to send them to this PO box address below. Bye bye.

(_ )

"So that's the story they're going with about that event." midoirya thought aloud

"What story?" jiro remarked, frightening the mossy harid boy somewhat.

"Oh right you guys don't know well, that isn't really the true story of what happened." uraraka said in response

"What actually happened?" Iida asked a bit in hesitation

" they really were planning to ask the underworld for help, someone else had different plans however someone in there went wild and brutally beat up everyone, the heroes and the criminals." Midoriya replied in a serious tone.

"Dang, who could have done something like that? I saw heavy tank loin cloth in person. He seemed crazy strong. He fought and beat another hero called tank top philosopher I believe." kirishima remarked

"Really? If you're telling the truth, this individual must be something tank philosopher. My main teacher is great philosopher's younger brother. " shoji mentioned

"That's not even the worst of it, whoever did that said he would return one day and challenge king but in the meantime he will start hunting heroes." Uraraka said as she said that a number of eyes slowly shifted over to Iida.

"Do…do we know what this person looks like?" Momo asked hesitantly, Midoriya shook his head.

"No we don't even know his name they but I'll try to get as answers as fast as I can bang seems to know something so I'll ask him the next time I see him but until then just keep a lookout and pay attention to your surroundings" midoriya warned looking at everyone even bakugo who he would be sure snude at the comment didn't say anything but a grunt of annoyance at the news.

"Thank you for letting us know we should be mindful of our surroundings from now on." Iida replied

"That reminds me, what are you going to do now, Iida? Now that you don't have a teacher and all" kirishima asked

"I…don't know, I'm sure one of your teachers wouldn't mind having me around." Iida replied

"Yeah , darkshine has no problem teaching people he's a natural," Kirishima replied, getting pumped up.

"Well I'll accept his offer, anyways I guess that for the rest of the day everyone has the day to themselves." Iida said, and with that done the majority of people retreated to their rooms while others stayed in the living room still talking about the interview they just witnessed.

Mineta's revenge: Mineta, Aoyama, Kirishma, Ojiro, Toru, Mina , Jiro, Kaminari

The time was now 7pm. Everyone was in their rooms and going about their own businesses for the day, readying themselves for bed or getting a snack or two. However a knock on their door had stirred some that were in the living room. Midoriya had gone to answer it seeing that it was someone from the association.

"What's the problem?" Midoirya asked curious why the association come to them this late.

"There is no problem, in fact it's quite the opposite, I was told to come pick up three girls from this residence, Jiro, Toru, and another named mina… if you could give them these envelopes it would explain the situation." the man said, handing them to midoriya before taking a short bow before leaving. Midoirya closed the door and looked at the envelopes in his hands, and Uraraka approached him.

"What did he give you?" she asked

"Invitations I suppose, for Mina, Jiro , and Toru. ``Midoirya said, having the tickets in front of her, her eyes seemed to have lit up with understanding and she immediately snatched them out of the green hair boy's hands and started up the stairs. To his udder surprise

"Oh I'll give it to them, don't worry about it." uraraka said with a wink before continuing up the stairs. Midoiry paused for a moment and considered if he should be concerned or not but eventually let it slide. Uraraka quickly got up the stairs and knocked on all three of the girls' doors and got them to congregate in the hallway. She handed them each the invitations.

It read that all three of the girls were invited to a special place and it was all paid for by a third party.

"This is an extremely vague and spontaneous invitation." jiro remarked questiongly

"I don't know it could be fun! But I'm nervous about who this third party is." toru remarked

"Well no one should know about our new place except the association right, I mean we just moved in here today so it's someone at least they trust." uraraka said

"She has a point and all expenses paid is a hard invitation to turn down." Mina said somewhat excitedly but still hesitant.

"How about you two go and I stay here? Seems like a win, win to me." Jiro remarked

"It would be rude to turn down such an invitation, come on jiro live a little." Toru replied.

"What's the worst thing that could happen?" uraraka asked

"We could be getting kidnapped." Jiro said off handedly, earning a couple of laughs from the girls in the hallway.

"Kidnaps us after today? Are you serious? Come on now." uraraka said

"Or are you just scared?" Toru teased.

"tch not even close…but having some guy thinking that throwing money at us will think he has a chance seems degrading." jiro remarked

"OOOh is that what this is about? Look at you staying loyal to little kami.`` Mina teased, making the girl flush at the insinuation .

"That idiot has nothing to do with it." she said through clenched teeth.

"Sure he doesn't." Mina said with a wink.

"Well I'm sure you could just tell the person whoever it is that you're not interested and have fun. I mean it is on his tab after all." toru suggested

"That is if it even is a date request or something like that, I don't think the association would waste time on things like that." uraraka added which made jiro slightly more ok with going along.

after some more time of bickering about if they should go. Jiro reluctantly agreed to join them but if stuff were being fishy she was definitely just going to leave. The 3 girls all suited up and got ready dressing fairly casually as the invitation said not to dress formally. The group said their goodbyes as they exited the house and headed towards wherever they were going. After a 30 minute drive They had just arrived at the place and began to get out of the car, after all of them were out the car had sped off rather haphazardly which caused them to worry as they looked at the building they were to enter, they had been given a room number before.

"I feel that you two have something to do with this." Jiro grumbled as they sat in the back of the car with her arms crossed as the group continued to walk.

'I swear we had nothing to do with this, we're just as in the dark as you are." Mina said looking at the girl, who suddenly stopped and stared at the building before hurriedly turning around and walking away, Mina halted her pace by grabbing her arm.

"You haven't even gone inside yet, what are you so afraid of? What's wrong? "Mina asked the girl who was blushing madly again, her answer was partly solved by the happy screech of toru a little out in front of them.

"OH MY GOD, gals, it's a karaoke place!" Toru announced Mina turned to look and sure enough it was indeed a karaoke place, a fancy one at that. Mina now understood why Jiro was so reluctant to go into a place like this, especially with people she doesn't know…..wait… , toru seemed to have a similar train of thought as both girls began to look at each other and almost burst out in laughter.

"What? " Jiro asked the two seemingly inane compatriots she found herself in the company of

" I did not think kaminari would be that subtle, that is actually impressive, coming from him." Mina said to toru.

"I know right, do you think he planned for mineta to say that and everything?" toru replied seemingly ignoring Jiro's question, but their conversation jogged Jiro's memory to something kaminari had said earlier on in the day…her whole face started to go red and she tried to pull even more away from mina's grasp but the pink girl held firm as the two gossip girl continued their conversation about the situation.

"Aww this is a date! Oh my god!" mina gushed

"It really is! But why are we here?" toru said her excitement giving way slightly to confusion

"Probably because this girl would do exactly….. what she's trying to do now." mina remarked redoubling her efforts in stopping jiro from leaving

"Oh come on Jiro he planned all of this for you, the least you can do is show up." toru said

"Don't care, didn't ask….in fact the next time I see him I'm gonna pluck him in the eye so bad that he'll go blind." Jiro said still trying to get away from mina

"Oh come on, it won't be that bad." toru replied joining mina in restraining her before both girls began to drag her towards the place jiro could already hear the music with her quirk as they neared the doors and stepped inside, part of her was actually interested in the music this world had to offer compared to their own but not in this environment it was definitely too much for her and these idiots would definitely try and get her to sing.

After some initial breakthroughs and narrow escapes by their prey, mina and toru were both successful in dragging jiro to the room in question only to find it completely empty.

"Huh? Weird, I would have thought that he would have been here already." mina said

"Good so we can just leave, already." jiro said remarked

"No, let's stay and get comfortable. And see how everything works, I mean he is paying for everything and it definitely doesn't look cheap." Toru remarked scanning over the room it was a regal theme, with a large stage in the center with multiple microphones hanging up on a rack behind it. The girls waited around for 15 minutes all looking around at everything, and learning how to set things up correctly. Luckily the place had Bluetooth integration along with their own lists of songs to choose from so they had a wide variety of music to go through. After another 15 minutes Jiro was ready to go again when suddenly the doors opened up again and three figures walked in, two of which surprised each of the other two girls as well.

"Kirishima? Ojiro?" Mina and Toru yelled each boy's name separately.

" Jiro?...I didn't think you took what I said to heart, maybe I- ``Kaminari's voice was silenced as The girl's earphone jack went straight into his eye as he walked closer to the table, causing him to roll around on the floor again.

"Oh come one, I didn't even didn't even say anything this time." Kaminari said in pain.

"I don't know what you expected, Kami, when you invite her out to a place like this. You know how she is about singing.`` Mina said to the boy still rubbing his eyes.

"But this wasn't my idea at all!" Kaminari complained still in pain as he wiped his eye trying to ease the pain.

"So who was it? Kirishima? I can't imagine it being ojiro's." toru said in mild speculation, making ojiro slight tilt over in his seat while she was right it still hurt for her to say, ojiro thought silently with a dejected face

"We were brought here by mineta actually, he said that he wanted us to join in a party he was hosting." kirishima clarified

"He also said that they would be babes here and I guess he wasn't wrong there." kaminari said and in response earned another pluck to the other eye.

"So this was Mineta's Idea huh? That makes more sense this idiot couldn't have been that subtle about anything." Jiro commented

"Hey!" Kaminari complained through the pain.

" So why did you come ojiro?" toru asked

"I wasn't going to go, but they caught me before I went to practice and coerced me into it." ojiro remarked

"Join the club." Jiro muttered out

"So why would that shrimp set something like this up? What's his deal or angle he's playing at here.`` Jiro questioned immediately suspicious

"Could it be for that prank we played on him over a week ago?" Mina suggested to toru and a newly recovered kaminari that just began to sit down at the table.

"I don't know, maybe but if this is his idea of revenge then I think we should prank him more often." Toru said with a laugh.

" he probably just wants you all out of your rooms." Jiro suggested.

"But all the doors have their own key card and only momo and Iida have the master cards to open them." kaminari shot back

"Well we can worry about that later, how about we just enjoy our time here!" Toru said excitedly now that everyone was here and the party could get started.

'Yeah, that's the spirit! Let's go!" Kirirshima said, also getting excited.

"And it's all on mineta's tab so we can spend what we want on food or drinks!" Mina said as well, getting excited. Four out of the six people seemed to be getting excited and ready to jam out the night away, while the two "sour sports" as the other called them braced for a night of bad singing.

Before they could start singing however a couple of waiters had came in to take the orders on something they may like to eat or drink, most of the menu was a mizz of new and old and most of the group decided to air on the side of caution getting things that they are familiar with, kirishima on the other hand went with something more exotic something called Tikka, it was a dish consisting of boneless meat, usually chicken, that is cut into smaller pieces and marinated in yogurt and traditional Indian spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, chili, garlic, and ginger.

"I see that hanging out with bakugo for all this time, changes your appetite doesn't it.'' Mina remarked, elbowing him in the side.

"Yeah, when you're with him eating something spicy is just a given, you just learned to go along with it, heck I don't know what my tolerance was before in middle school but it sure skyrocketed past that now." kirishima replied

"Well while we wait for our food we should get the party started! Who's going first?" toru said enthusiastically

"Girls first." kaminari said, gesturing to them over to the stand, but only two of them actually got up to go.

The first song that the mina and toru decided to put on was. A pop song named abcdefu by Gayle. Both girls got on stage and sang their hearts out to the lyrics and surprisingly it wasn't as bad as Jiro expected it to be but despite their best efforts she didn't join them in singing, she was fully content to just sit back and relax and wait this whole thing out, she agreed to stay but she never agreed that she had to sing.

Once that song was done it was the guy's turn to step up to the field.

"Oh I know the perfect follow up song." Kaminari said as he got up towards the stage, Kirishima joined in right behind him before stopping and looking back to ojiro.

"You ain't coming with?" he questioned

"No…I'm fine sitting here." ojiro said.

"Come on man… your singing can't be that bad." Kaminari remarked.

"Well, we're not going to find out." ojiro said in finality

Both boys just shrugged their shoulders and continued forwards, towards the stage. The song that kaminari put on was hot girl bummer and as both boy's started to sing the song the group could understand why kaminari decided it was a good follow up to their first song, it almost could seem as a reply of sorts to the first song. Now the singing was definitely of worst quality however, between kirishima not really knowing the lyrics to the song well despite the prompter he would make mistakes or the way that the two didn't have much synchronization between their voices not that their voices were well suited for each other to begin with, jiro remarked as she continued to listen to them.

"Thank god that's over. I think my ear is literally bleeding." Jiro remarked as the song came to a close.

"Hey those who don't sing don't have the right to complain, unless that is you want to show us how it's done" kaminari replied with a tease shaking the mike in her face, Jiro merely huffed a response and crossed her arms.

"I thought not." Kaminari said with a laugh, dodging out of the way of a jack that was attempting to poke him.

"So who's next?" kaminari asked

"I want to go again..this time a song that I want to play.'' Kirishima remarked, going through his phone for the song he wanted to play.

"Go for it dude, are you ok on your own?" kaminari asked, kirishima was about to nod before he thought better of it.

"Actually ummm, Mina, would you mind duoing with me?" kirishima blurted out so casually, Mina was surprised by the suggestion but happily agreed nonetheless

" ooh, I wonder what song he's going to put on. I wonder if it's going to be a love song." Toru teased as Mina stepped up her usual energy suddenly vanishing at the suggestion, almost tripping her up as she got to the stage, she suddenly felt her body temperature skyrocket before calming down again and laughing the remark off as nonsense.

"Ok kirishima what do you have planned? I hope I don't ruin your song because I probably won't know the lyrics." mina said, kirishima shook his head

"No , no it's cool. You actually don't have that many lines, just sing the female parts and it should be pretty easy." Kirishima said, mina nodded and soon the song began and the instant kick of the drums and bass blasting from the speakers surprised the group sitting down. Even Jiro was partly surprised by the rock beat, a smile soon growing on her face.

"You know this song, jiro?" kaminari asked

"Yeah it's skillet's feel invincible , it's not a love song technically but it is about appreciating someone. Listen to the lyrics." Jiro suggested.

They all followed along with the lyrics of the song and started to understand immediately as the chorus kicked in

"Wait!, is this really a love confession from kirishima?" toru asked getting all giddy

" Not everything is about love you know, he may just respect her a lot." Jiro responded by tapping away to the music. As she watches the two sing the lyrics, something about the way kirishima was looking at her may lead her to believe that maybe there was something more to it than that.

Mina was currently internally panicking, while the surprise of the song being a rock one was a semi welcomed song given that it wasn't in fact a love song, that toru was mentioning but then the song started to actually play and the lyrics appeared on the promoter and mina realized that it wasn't that far off from one, was kirishima trying to tell her something with this? Or was it just him praising her again for changing his life around? I mean that's what the song is really about right people supporting each other, that's all their no romantic undertone is there? Mina took a glance at Kirishima's way only to see him staring back at her with such a serious gaze. She felt her heart flutter and she momentarily lost her part in the song but she recovered quickly and started singing again. The two finished the song and both singers had a noticeable blush on they're face as they went to sit back down.

"That was a good duet between you two." Jiro said remarked

"You're looking a little red in the face, there mina, everything ok?" toru teased

"I..I'm absolutely fine…I have no idea what you're talking about." Mina said her voice slowly broke back out into her normal, less nervous tone.

"Look the foods here." ojiro said, pointing in the direction of the door which just opened and the hostess came in with their food and drinks. Mina breathed a sigh of relief as everyone began to start digging into their food, there was some light discussion here and there about a variety of topics such as fashion and other things.

"So who's the next duet going up?" Mina said spontaneously looking directly at the other two girls. Shocking the group from their stupor.

"Who agreed to do anything like that?" jiro questioned

"Well since someone wants to talk so much about what happened between me and kirishima, then we're going to force the same thing on you guys." mina announced

"And we don't have a say in this?" ojiro questioned

"No, now choose who goes next." Mina said simply, offering no room for argument, Jiro simply rolled her eyes at the girl before laying her head on the table. She got a text from kaminari of all people but why was he here so he could have just said what he wanted directly to he-, her brain completely stopped at the image that was on her phone…. It was…of that night. But who how, she was about to shoot her head up and pull him aside to tell her what the fuck was going on, but she saw the dots that signified that he was continuing to type things, it read that toru caught us and she wants us to go up togather or she'll show mina. Jiro was just stunned at the news she really didn't want to sing but she really really didn't want to have mina all over her for this picture, she breathed in a big gulp of air and exhaled it.

"Fine let's get this over with." Jiro remarked as she dragged herself up from her seat, utterly not in the mood for this and Kaminari quietly joined her as both of them got on stage to both of the other girls' snickers.

"If you don't mind..I-" kaminari started

"I do mind." Jiro interrupted

"Well….I actually have a song ready for us if you don't mind."

"Let's just get this over with." Jiro remarked as she took the mic from his hand.

The song started and surprised the viewers with how strange it was.

"Do any of you have any idea what this song is?" toru asked

"I have no clue.." mina replied

"Nope, nothing." kirishima said

"It…sounds familiar…but I wouldn't think it's that same song, I mean kaminari would be absolutely foolish or brave to choose something like this with Jiro." ojiro remarked.

"You know what it is?" toru said surprised

"And why would it be a problem with jiro?" mina added

"Kinda, I vaguely remember hearing it from him in the early days of school and I say that because it's a tsundere love song." ojiro said before the lyrics finally started to kick in. ( it's not like I like you ok )

The reaction from Jiro was nearly instantaneous as she turned to look at the blonde. she felt like she was burning up as she read ahead at the rest of the lyrics. She wanted to just walk off the stage right there but kaminari pleading eyes halted her so she relented and started singing along. There was a break in the song where the characters were quibbling amongst each other, and Jiro used that moment to speak.

"You're so dead, once this is through you know that right." jiro remarked as they waited

"Yeah but it'll be worth it. " kaminari replied, making the girl blush even harder

"We'll see about that." jiro said simply, and Kaminari chuckled along with the song

The two continued to sing the song this time it was Jiro's time to sing but the lyrics made it hard for her to give it her all. Kaminari would even include the parts that the guy was just normally talking about which flustered Jiro even more. there was another break before the song continued again.

As the song winded down the audience was completely stunned as Kaminari rubbed the back of his head bashfully. Before he could say anything he was suddenly attacked by a barrage of earphone jacks making their audience wince in pain as she struck him over and over again, before finally stopping after the hitting the already downed man at least a good 20 more times if the spectators had counted correctly. She held her earphone jacks up to them next in a threatening gesture.

" We will not Discuss or talk about anything that just happened, understand?" Everyone in the audience simply nodded their heads with their hands raised in the air in surrender. She stormed back over to her seat and sat down and glared at toru, who in return mouthed that she would delete the photo meanwhile kirishima went to go help kaminari up and back into his seat.

"Alright that was something. Your guy's turn." mina said jestering to ojiro and toru

"Do I have to?" ojiro complained

"Come on, it won't be that bad." Toru said, pulling him up from his seat and towards the stage.

"Are you sure? I'm not much of a singer or a dancer." ojiro said

"Singing? Sure but dancing I know that you can dance well. Hurry, get limbered up." Toru said as she began stretching but not just any stretching, dynamic stretching which suggested too ojiro major physical activity was about to commence he was curious but did as followed and did his own dynamic stretches to match after a solid five minutes of that the two finally seemed ready.

"What's in that invisible mind of yours?" ojiro asked as both of them stepped on the stage.

"Don't worry about it, I'm sure you're gonna have a blast." toru said dodging the question

"Do you guy's know what she has planned?" Kaminari managed to say after recovering enough.

"Nope, not a clue." both mina and kirishima said in confusion.

"But I know that since she's my best friend it's going to be interesting." mina added

The two approach the stage but she stopped Ojiro from picking up the mic there instead moving everything else she could out of the way of the stage and walking a few paces away from him. Before bowing, ojiro's eyes shot open at the gesture.

"I know you're probably bummed out you didn't get any training in for the day so how about a little offense defense to pass the time." Toru said, still in her bowing stance.

"Sure, I guess." Ojiro said hesitantly, glancing over to the audience that was watching them curiously, he returned the bow and got into a stance.

"And this is the perfect song to go with it. No stopping until the song is over" Toru remarked as she pushed play on her phone and threw it over to Mina, who caught it, looked at the song that was about to play and started to laugh. Ojiro was confused on why until he heard the beginning of the song play.

Ojiro momentarily felt the will to live, leaving his body as he recognized the song and his stance momentarily faltered.

"Really?"

"Yes really." toru replied back

"It's time for kung fu fighting !" Mina, Kaminari, and kirishima all seemed to speak at once as the lyrics began, Jiro seemed to only roll her eyes, but was turned to the stage as the two commenced their fighting.

Toru was the aggressor immediately charging towards ojiro and delivering a flurry of punches and jabs, ojiro did not move from his position and braced for her approach, each punch of jab that toru attempted to land on him was deflected harmlessly away. Toru threw in some extra moves like sweeps and kicks that caused ojiro to change up tactics, raising his left leg to avoid a low kick and rotating around a push kick that the girl threw towards his chest and moving backwards to the centers of the stage. Toru rotated around and while performing a roundhouse kick that ojiro narrowly avoided by stepping back, toru stepped forwards again as her foot touched the ground doing a barrage of kicks from her right leg, ojiro unlike the punches before opted to weave and dodge out of the way of the kicks before halting the assault when extended out his hand and grabbing the girl by her ankle and halting the last strike and locking her in place.

"I assume we're not using quirks?" ojiro asked

"I wouldn't want this to be too easy." toru replied with a smirk, before yanking her leg backwards, ojiro let go and the two commenced again in full, ojiro never tried to attack back only defending and avoiding toru's strikes while she did her best to land a hit on him. The song was just winding down as toru launched a last ditch offensive against ojiro as the two quicken their already fast pace even more, the two seemingly "dancing" across the stage ultimately culminating in ojiro catching toru as he dodged another one of her attacks and she was about to fly off stage. He thought quickly and used his tail to wrap around her waist and pull her back to safety, the quick motion brought toru directly next to the teen, her balancing herself with his chest. The music soon faded away shortly after and both teens looked at each other both slightly panting as they looked into each other's eyes.

"I guess I won this round." toru said

"Yeah." was all ojiro said in response, the two seemingly stared at each other for a moment locked in a trance before being broken out of it by a comment from mina.

"Kiss already!" She bellowed from the side, making both jump back from each other and ojiro to quickly unwrap his tail from the girl's waist, ojiro and toru both proceeded to their seats where they were lambasted by a number of teasing remarks from both kaminari and mina.

"Hey you didn't try to fight back at all? Do you not hit girls or something?" kirishima asked

"Nothing like that, it's just a game we play." toru said

"Yeah given our opposing styles we created a game that plays to their strengths, offense and defense. I play the role of defender and she plays the role of attacker, she tries to land a hit on me in a given time frame." ojiro explained

"Oh? Who has the leading score?" kaminari asked

"Well without quirks it's 10-2 his favor now 10-3, but with quirks it's 0-12 my favor." Toru said confidently, giving Ojiro a smug look.

"With quirks is incredibly difficult." ojiro grumbled, mina suddenly slammed her hands on the table as she listened to the two.

"Wait a minute does that mean that…you two have physical contact while she is undressed?" Mina said, her voice teetering on the edge of exploding in excited gossip.

"YOOO, you go man. Wish I could be as lucky as you." kaminari said patting the martial arts hero on the shoulder

"No, Noo, Noo ." Both toru and ojiro said waving their hands around sharply as their faces were beat red. Before they could explain anymore however, the hostels came in again this time with dessert. After clarifying that the dessert was already planned by the party maker the group already relented and dug in, it was a large cake with icing spelled out the words "I'm sorry". Along with the cake there was a letter with one of the kids pop off orbs on it. The hostess said that the ball will fall off in around 30 minutes before taking her leave. As the crew ate the cake that was provided to them, the conversation quickly steered into what this was really all about.

"What do you think he means by "I'm sorry"?" kaminari asked the group

"Probably for being such a creep." Jiro remarked

"If that's true then that's a good thing the little guy is finally manning up." kirishima said with a grin

"It would make the most sense, since this doesn't seem like much of a prank." toru said

"Well I guess, that's true but I wouldn't put it past the guy to do some-" mina said as her words began to get more slurred and she slowly began to fall a sleep shocking the group but before they could do anything everyone started to experience the same symptoms and slowly but steadily all of them went to sleep the last one standing was kaminari as he was surprised to see the door open again and two familiar shapes walk inside.

"Are you sure about this? It seems highly immoral even for a prank." aoyama said

"Not anymore than they did to me, besides that's what the whole thing was for, they had their fun and now it's our time to have ours. ``Mineta said mischievously. As he brought in a couple of pop off orbs he had a plate full of them.

"Well, I'm honestly curious how this is going to go, they did seem to be having fun together." Aoyama remarked as he gathered their sleeping friends in a line next to their partners.

"If anything I'm helping them out.'' Mineta said in a chuckle.

"I doubt they'll see it that way." aoyama replied

"And that's what makes it a prank." Mineta said as he got to work on what he was about to do, Aoyama recorded everything just as a precaution for later.

---

Jiro was the first to wake up among the group she was groggy but snapped to work quickly looking around and checking if everyone was ok and functional, after seeing that everyone one was ok, she then proceeded to check herself seeing if anything was taken from her she thankfully had everything on her body and she breathed a sigh of relief in response. The next person to stir was Kaminari, who practically did the same thing she did when she woke up.

"What happened?" Jiro asked him

"I don't know but I'm sure that I saw-" Kaminari cut his sentence short as he raised his hands and noticed the purple orbs that surrounded his wrist with a trail slowly following down towards Jiro, the girl followed his eyes and the trail of pop up orbs as it lead directly towards her own arm and sure enough she also had a wrist full of pop off orbs and the trail led right back to his.

"Saw mineta and aoyama come in …. I guess we know why now." kaminari said standing up fully now and moving away testing how far the pop off orbs went it was about 12 feet distance before he would pull on Jiro's arm, the girl was flustered and almost furious by the result as she slammed her hands on the table again the jolt woke almost the rest of the group up and the two waited as they went through the exact same processes that the two had just went through and watched as all their faces lit up.

"I knew that shrimp wasn't going to just do something good for us." toru replied

"Mina can't you just melt these things off?" Jiro asked, looking towards the pink girl.

"I normally could but it seemed to be coated in something, my acid just slid off!" Mina gestured as she showed the group.

"Oh no , how long do these things last?" Jiro said in despair.

" It could be up to 24 hours." kaminari said, making the girls sigh out loud.

"Hey guys, the letter is open." ojiro pointed out as he grabbed the letter and began to read it, toru was next to him and took the sheet from him.

"He says that it will last for eight hours! What time is it now ?" toru asked

"It's 11pm." kirishima said

"It won't be unlocked until 7am!" Mina yelled standing up from the desk.

"Where is the little Cretan." Jiro said, also standing up.

"He said that he would be waiting outside." Toru said, marching towards the door. The other two girls marched beside her and dragged the guys along with them. They thanked the staff for their hospitality before leaving the establishment and after looking around saw the familiar car that brought them all their, the window slowly rolled down as they approached and to everyone surprise it was aoyama that first peaked his head outside, earning a earphone jack to the forehead forcing him back into the car.

"Ouchie!" he remarked as fell back into the car and Mineta suddenly popped up again.

" hello!" he greeted happily, avoiding another earphone jack headed his way.

"Hey calm down." he added

"Calm down? You freaking drugged us!" Toru explained angrily as they got in front of the car door.

"Well how else was the prank going to commence?" mineta said sarcastically

"And I wasn't a part of what they did at all, why am I roped in with all of this?" Jiro remarked

"Same here." ojiro and kirishima added

"You guys were….collateral damage." Mineta said as he avoided another earphone jack from jiro.

"YOU better not have done something while we were unconscious back there." Mina threatened.

"NO, I didn't promise, I even had aoyama record me just so you check for yourselves….but that's what I want to talk about…umm as the cake said I'm sorry not just for drugging you guys but for my behavior in the past as well…. What's that phrase you never know a person until you walk a mile in their shoes? Well being a girl and going through some of the things that I put you guy's through I understand where I was wrong and out of line…I really didn't mean it in a malicious way but I went too far in what I was trying to prove and I understand that now. " Mineta said seriously.

"And what did you want to prove?" Jiro asked, holding back her earphone jacks just this once.

"I guess that you'll be loved, no matter what you look like or don't look like." Mineta said, stunning the group into silence.

"But I guess none of you actually needed me for that when someone else already has that covered." mineta said, gesturing to the guys behind them,making all of the girls blush somewhat.

"Yeah , yeah we can talk about that later…now let us in." Jiro remarked not trying to face kaminari at all at that moment.

"Oh yeah about that no….for rest of the prank you guys can take the subway home it's automated so it's open 24/7 and only a couple blocks from here. Bye bye …love birds." Mineta said as he rolled up the window and the car sped off again. Leaving the stunned group again.

"Well let's get a move on I guess." Kaminari remarked. And with that said and done everyone started to walk towards the nearest hero station, most stations were inside of hero associations shelters so it didn't take them long to figure out where to go. The walk to the shelter was mostly spent in silence as the linked three couples continued their travels contemplating on what mineta said about them all and their time spent in the karaoke place. Kaminari was so lost in thought that he nearly ran into a man on the street.

"I'm sorry I didn't see you there." Kaminari said. The man was a tall muscular man with a black shirt and white pants and black slippers. He reminded Ojiro of how bang dressed but the most unique thing about him was his hair . It stood straight up in some semblance of a V shape and was completely silver in color. The man looked over them all and almost seemed to be analyzing them and their faces, his gaze stopped on ojiro's before giving somewhat of a frown in response, his fist balled like he was ready to attack before he released them and continued forward.

"Don't worry about it." the man said simply before continuing onwards and crossing the street.

"OH and silver wukong, tell the old geezer that he can't keep me hidden forever." the man yelled back as he seemingly disappeared from view. Making the group all turn to face ojiro with concern.

"Did you know that guy?" Toru was the first to ask.

"No, I didn't." ojiro said simply

"And who does he mean by old geezer? And hide him? kirishima asked

"The old geezer part probably refers to bang but the second part I'm at a loss." ojiro replied

"Didn't Midoriya say something about the actual culprit behind the attack on the Association was someone related to bang? Do you think he was referring to that" Jiro questioned

"I….I don't know…it could be a possibility." Ojiro said simply, the group was a lot more weary now as they walked over to the station. If the man they just saw was someone hunting hero's why didn't he attack them? He obviously knew that they were hero's going by calling me by my hero title. Could it have been that since they were off duty? But the better question Ojiro thought of who he was to bang, bang wasn't the type of person to make enemies as far as he could tell and the only person he's heard of that bang personally had an issue with was….garou? Was that garou just now? Ojiro thought, the realization must have shown on his face.

"Did you figure something out?" toru asked

"Nothing concrete but I have an idea who that guy might have been, a former student of bang." ojiro replied

"Well that would explain why he targeted you out specifically….are…are you going to be ok?" toru asked, her voice dropping lower in worry.

" I'll be fine, I don't know if he's the culprit of what happened or not but I'll ask bang about it when I see him tomorrow." ojiro said.

"Alright…just be safe ok." Toru said and Ojiro nodded his head at her after giving her a reassuring smile.

The group finally made their way inside the shelter and down into the subway area, they were surprised to see that the monster shelters actually doubled as regular shelters when not in use, going by the many people they found inside as they passed. They soon got on the train and were off back towards A-city from R-city. The group got out and got out their phones to locate where their new house was only to see that it was 20 miles away from where they were, almost all of the group grumbled at that fact before starting the trek forwards the only ones that didn't grumble were ojiro and toru as they practically did a similar run each day. In fact Toru had a plan to spice things up. For their journey home, she whispered something into Ojiro's ear before both of them started to jog forwards in front of everyone.

"Hey guys, let's see who can get their first." toru suggested

"Hell yeah I'm game." kirishima remarked

"Heh it's like a version of the two legged race." kaminari mentioned

"The catch is that the loser has to kiss their partner." Toru said as both her and Ojiro took off ahead, although the remark surprised everyone besides herself. Kirishima and Mina took off after them.

"Hey that's no fair you got a head start!" Mina yelled after them as they went. Kaminari and Jiro were a little slow on the uptake of the entire thing mostly due to Jiro not wanting to indulge in the race until what happened to the loser was said but after a 10 minutes of running it was clear that the two could never catch up to the other two pairs. She eventually slowed her pace down to just walking again slightly panting from exertion. She was slightly disturbed by the fact that Kaminari was still doing just fine.

"You seem content to lose." Jiro regarded him.

" No, you're just slow. eep.`` Kaminari blurted out and an ear jack was in his face threateningly hovering there.

"Aren't you supposed to be super fast now? where is that speed when you actually need it." Jiro said, crossing her arms.

"I need to be overloaded to access that and I don't even know if I could just switch on if I could." Kaminari said.

"At least try because I only kiss winners." Jiro replied and it had the desired effect. He started to smile but then it faded.

"Where am I supposed to get 300 million volts of electricity from?" Kaminari wondered out loud.

"Dummy, we're literally in a fully mechanical city." Jiro remarked, kaminari slowly nodded his head in confirmation before he began to concentrate, electricity started to flow out from nearly every crevice of their surroundings and into kaminari blinding jiro for several minutes before the bright flashes ended and kaminari was suddenly in his yey mode again. Jiro stifled a laugh as she closed in on him and waved her hand in front of him to get his attention but it didn't work, he was still delirious as ever.

"Come on jammy-way, just focus." she tried to tell the man but it didn't work, she remembered him saying that he sparked it again when trying to protect someone but no one was in danger here, maybe she could say something to him to trigger such a response. She sucked in a breath and she will probably regret saying something like this but this dork would probably react if she knew him as well as she thinks she did.

"Please help me kaminari, you're my only hope ." she said trying to keep from gagging at the end and slowly but surely the idiot really did start to refocus. His hair started to lift up slightly and lighting coated the outside of his body before his dopey open mouth turned into a wide grin.

"Did you really just quote star wars?" he asked

"And your dumb enough for it to actually work on." Jiro replied before immediately halting the boy trying to pick her up.

"I'm not your princess, you're my ride, turn around." Jiro said and Kaminari obliged, turning around and letting Jiro climb up on his back.

"I'll let you ride me anytime." Kaminari said with a snicker before he was plucked in the head with Jiro's earphone jack.

"Less talking, more running." Jiro replied simply, her face burning up as she held on firmly to kaminari and they took off, the two caught up with the other pair almost instantaneously. The two briefly stopped in front of the pair and while kaminari was jogging backwards both did the akanbe taunt before speeding off again out of sight.

"Hey, that's completely unfair!" toru yelled out to open air

"I mean technically we never ruled out the use of quirks." ojiro said.

"Oh really! in that case.`` Mina said with a mischievous tone shot out a stream of acid from her hands catching both ojiro and toru feet and sticking them towards the ground, slowing them down allowing her and kirishima to pass them.

"ugh ." ojiro said as he tried to tread through the muck.

"Don't worry I got this." Toru said before focusing for a moment and suddenly in front of both of them a platform started to manifest; it was a square shaped platform that was yellow like light, ojiro looked at toru with wonder and speculation.

"Bomb and zombieman had me practicing the inverse of what I was doing as well." she responded as she climbed up on the platform which visually strained her, if her scrunched up face was anything to go by. Ojiro climbed up soon after and both of them jumped out of the acid puddle that mina made in front of them and continued running, the other two had gotten a sizeable lead on them but they weren't deterred in the slightest, ojiro had picked toru up and quickly used his tail to propel them forwards and soon enough they were close to them again. Almost neck and neck.

"Oh and Mina, you wanted to see how we trained together right? Here's an example!" toru said as she twisted her fingers and suddenly both mina's and Kirishima's eyes sight just turned off and the two in their panic state they fumbled and crashed on the ground but kirishima even in his blind state still had good instincts he felt for mina and once he had her made sure that he would take the brunt of the fall as they collapsed making her fall on top of him.

"Are you guys, good." ojiro called out as he put toru down.

"Yeah I'm fine, nice trick their toru." Kirishima said with a thumb raised in the air.

"See you all at the house." Toru said as the pair continued to run away.

Mina was currently too flustered to speak as she laid on top of kirishima, he protected her yet again like he always does, she was happy that she couldn't see as no doubt they were likely face to face going off her body movements but that comfort soon faded away just as her vision started to return and just like she thought the two were staring at each other, face to face their nose almost touching she could see the blush on Kirishima's face and she was sure that he could see the blush that was no doubt on hers. They stayed like that for a moment before kirishima looked away and mumbled that they should get moving. Mina hesitantly mumbled a response in return as they got up to start again, Mina stopped Kirishima before they started running though as she had an idea on how they could catch up to them.

Kaminari and Jiro made it to the house in the next moment after leaving the other four behind. She climbed off his back and stretched out somewhat.

"Wow you really are fast in that mode of yours." Jiro remarked about to make her way up the stairs before being halted by kaminari doing a fake cough and looking bashfully away, she knew what he was getting at and she mentally kicked herself for saying something like that but than an idea popped into her mind as she steadily approached the boy and kissed him…on the forehead. Kaminari was shocked for a moment which then turned into an almost mopping like demeaner.

"Aww come on don't be like that, I never said where I would have kissed you." Jiro said, even with that she was blushing madly and she could feel her heartbeat increase in tempo. But that did nothing to settle the boy's mood. She sighed out before beginning again.

"How long do we have until they get here?" Jiro asked suddenly.

"Around 5-10 min if I could guess it depends on how much they slow each other down, why?" kaminari.

"Because I need to talk to you about….this…us." Jiro said quietly before looking at their home again and walking further away from it, remembering that it had windows and video feeds of its surroundings. Kaminari noticed this and got an idea he quickly sped towards her grabbed the girl and took her some place more secluded he took her to the outer edge of the City where they could overlook the large roads that led away from the city along with the large body of water that laid underneath it. After Jiro's initial shock of being moved around subsided and she got her bearings she turned to look at kaminari who was staring out among them down below towards the water from the safety railing. He turned to look at her incredibly seriously despite himself.

"This would probably be a better place, no ones going to notice us here. Now what did you want to talk about?" Kaminari asked. Jiro's heart quickened even more taking in the sight of kaminari's glowing form along the moonlight sky. She composed herself quickly before running her hands through her hair and approaching the safety rail but some distance away from the electric blonde.

"Look kaminari, let me get this out of the way first, you weren't my first choice in terms of starting a relationship with." Jiro began, rubbing her hands together over the railing.

"Oh…who was the lucky guy?" Kaminari said almost dejectedly .

"Girl actually." Jiro corrected, she didn't look at him but she could hear the shift in movement as signaling his surprise.

"O-oh… so are you saying that you still have feelings for this girl." Kaminari said as he regained his composure.

"No, she doesn't rock that way, the reason I bring her up though is that I compare her to you and…"

"I come up short?" Kaminari said, trying to finish what she was going to say.

"You come up …unsafe." Jiro corrected. Looking at Kaminari again who looked a little taken back from the phrase, his confused and slightly disturbed look was anything to go by.

"Look kaminari…I really didn't like you in the beginning of the year, like I really didn't like you. You seemed like the type to cheat on someone, hell I may have even had thoughts of you being a womanizer." Jiro remarked

"Ouch, that really hurts." Kaminari said looking at the girl with genuine hurt in his eyes, Jiro felt bad about what she said but it was the truth and he had to hear this if he wanted them to be together.

"Look you can't blame me, you may not be as bad as him but you and mineta shared a lot of qualities with each other when it came to girls. Like I've seen you hit on almost every girl in the class at least once." Jiro remarked

"I've never hit on you." Kaminari said earnestly, noticing the suspicious and disbelieving look on the girl's face he sputtered for a moment before reorganizing himself.

"What I mean by that is….I never hit on you because…I'm serious about you. Everything I say about you I completely mean 100% and you're right I can't blame you for seeing me like that before but I..hope that I changed your mind as we spent more time together this past year.`` Kaminari replied, looking the girl directly in the eyes. The two stared at each other for a moment before Jiro broke it first. Rubbing a hand over her shoulder as she looked away.

"You have but….just not completely. Look I want to know right here and now if you're actually taking this…thing between you and me seriously, I don't do these high school fling stuff. I need to know if you're committed." Jiro asked, turning back to face him. Kaminari took a hesitant step forward approaching the girl as if she was a dangerous animal.

"I am committed and I want to prove that to you if you'll let me." kaminari said taking another hesitant step forward before he held his hand out for her to take, Jiro looked at his hand up to his face which showed no signs of his usual jokey demeaner, nothing but pure determination on his face. She hesitantly put her hand in his and they intertwined them before both of them looked back out over the landscape.

"Hey…what …what do you like about me? I'm not..you know what guys usually find attractive." Jiro asked and despite the serious situation Kaminari actually let out a snicker before replying.

"Despite what you may think I think you look incredibly lovely, I find you to be fun to be around, your not afraid to fight for what you believe in, your fashion sense is totally rad, your music taste compliments mine well, and to repeat what I said before your singing voice is really gre-" kaminari's ramblings was stopped cold as he was suddenly kissed on the lips by Jiro, his heart nearly exploded out of his chest the the sensation felt so surreal despite how fast it was, to kaminari it felt like it lasted an eternity. As Jiro's lips left his, she pressed her head to his chest hoping to hide her extremely blushing face, with such close proximity she could hear how fast kaminari heart rate was and chuckled.

"Jeez dude calm down, I don't want you to have a heart attack now." Jiro said playfully.

"I can't, I just got a shot of dopamine and I may be addicted." Kaminari said, trying to be suave. Jiro simply rubbed her head into the boy's chest and tapped on it with her earphone jacks.

"Just take us home, chargebolt." Jiro remarked with a laugh as she reached up and grabbed a hold of Kaminairi's neck, still not showing him her face. And he happily obliged and with the swoosh of the wind they were there in front of the house again and not a minute too soon either as just 3 minutes later the other two pairs appeared, she turned to tell kaminari to act natural but she didn't have to worry about that as the guy was in his brain fried mode again, causing her to laugh at the sudden change, he looked so cute like that she thought but she didn't worry about that right now as the other to drew closer she noticed that the pair were battling it out with their quirks, mina was throwing out her acid at the pair in front of them with one hand while creating a slide for kirishima to push down on with the other, meanwhile small light blocks would form to block the acid and just as the sliding duo got close ojiro yanked toru away and with his tail flopped away again, ultimately the ones that came in last place were kirishima and mina.

"Haha! We won." toru said

"Second place." Jiro added.

"yeah, yeah…it's time for the losers to pay up." Toru said ignoring Jiro.

Mina and Kirishima were completely red in the face as they looked at each other , both visibly shaking as they drew closer and closer. Mina was about to pull a fast one and go for the boy's cheek before being halted by Jiro of all people.

"It has to be on the lips." Jiro said before

"Oh my god, Jiro you're finally catching on, you heard her. Winner chooses!" Toru added getting excited.

" Come on guys, you may be taking things a bit too far." ojiro said.

"Yeah guy's… that's so unmanly…I …I don't want to get it like that." Kirishima began to whisper that last part but nothing escaped Jiro's ears, she gave a slight chuckle.

"Ok, Kirishima …we can have it your way…as the winner all you gotta do is kiss her on both cheeks and mina the same." Jiro announced.

Both kirishima and mina nodded to the agreement before looking at each other both swallowing a lump in their throat as they approached each other, kirishima was moving his head painfully slowly towards mina's before kissing her right cheek directly followed closely by him doing the same with her left, mina was next she was much faster than kirishima but her blush was incredibly profound in that moment as she hurriedly backed away.

"There…happy." mina asked

"Yup. I'm happy." Toru said with a laugh.

The group all started to make their way up stairs but before entering Jiro stopped them again and did a phone check on everyone involved, she didn't care and wouldn't let anyone enter the house before she made sure that any evidence of the night's events was thoroughly erased. After some initial squabbling the two girls relented and let Jiro see their phones and not to the surprise of no one there were endless videos and pictures which she promptly deleted, with that said and done everyone made their way inside. Since they were still attached together for the rest of the night until early morning the group decided to have a slumber party in the living room after getting some things from their rooms.

"You sure tried your best not to lose, I didn't know that kissing me was such a bad thing for you." Toru said, acting like she was upset, Ojiro took the bait hook line and sinker, muttering a bunch of excuses and trying to reason with her before Toru laughed and kissed him on the cheek.

"I was just joking, gosh you're so serious all the time." she said with another laugh despite her bravado she was still blushing madly from the act, but as she went to leave, ojiro was frozen stiff in place preventing her from going anywhere.

"That..feeling again…..wait that means….back on the oku island..you." Ojiro said his heart beat was increasing and his face was as red as a tomato.

"Oh my god you still remember that? I guess that was very special for you wasn't it.`` Toru said in jest before pulling the boy out of the room through his ramblings and jerky body movements. The two were the last to get down stairs with everyone else and the 6 of them all played some games before sleeping the rest of the night away.

Did you know that MHA had light novels? called school brief's I read through their synopsis's on the wiki where I came upon the one where the 1A and 1B girls spoke about guy's they like nothing really new was gained however jiro describes kami as a womenizer in that(but that could be just her deflecting ) and mina describes her ideal guy which to me sounds a lot like kiri so idk, the only other thing of note was that a lot of the girls seemed to like dark shadow but tokoyami was seen as the downside making them past. poor tokoyami.

Also to get some audience engagement I'm doing a section called "fan mail" essentially you can write a comment as an in-universe fan letter to one or more of the 1A teens, it can be anything really even maybe a request for one of them and I may turn that into something in the story later on. I want to do this once going forward every week that passes in the story following this one, the cut off for this specific portion is chp. 19 and then I'll probably ask again on that chapter.
