Month 1: Week 1: Moral dilemma

Virtual Genocide Training: Genos's, Darkshine's, Zombieman's groups and sneck.

As the class woke up for their day and followed the usual routine of meeting in the common area and eating an association agent had arrived to advise Bakugo, todoroki, Kirishima, Tokoyami, Koda and toru that there Teachers would be here in headquarters today in observation room 45. Sato decided to tag along with kirishima per pig god's orders and the small group slowly were led towards the area designated. They quickly ran into The demon cyborg who was just entering into the doorway of the observation room. He took a moment to look at the group cross referencing their names from his memory and looking into the hero association database to look at their hero rankings. The association member quickly left the group after a quick greeting and genos entered the observation area with the group of teens, to immediately be called out by sneck.

"So it was you that summoned us here? I remember you, you were with that bald guy during the initiation. What do you want with Snake Bite Sneck? "

"I came here because I heard some reckless guy was challenging me to a one-on-one fight!" metal bat exclaimed

"I think you heard wrong, there was mention of a new training machine that they wanted to try out." Darkshine confirmed.

"Why the hell are we here mr. roboto, Scared to get scrapped again." Bakugo sneered sidley, as he and the rest of his classmates found somewhere to sit in the room

What a bunch of unpleasant members thought zombie man as he viewed each person in the room before he turned towards genos himself.

"You're the new addition to the S-class Demon cyborg right? What do you want with us?" he questioned.

"A-class heroes; Sneck, Tsukuyomi, and King Dynamite Explosion and S-class heroes; frozen-phoenix, Metal bat, Superalloy Darkshine, and Zombieman. You will all dawn this device and fight enemies in virtual space." he said holding up a virtual headset device.

" Eh? The hell is that? The latest toy or something?" metal bat asked

"Can't we get a turn as well?" Kirishima questioned. Raising his hand. Genos turned to him and looked at him curiously.

"No, Anyone below the rank of A-class I believe won't be of much use in gathering combat data, all the monsters in there are demon class or above." genos said purely, but something he said peaked zombie man's interest.

"What do you plan on doing with the combat data?" he asked

" I will use it as a reference for myself to get stronger." genos said casually. A little taken back by the answer, zombieman just smirked and replied.

"I see.. You're a surprisingly straightforward guy. Very well, I'll go along with you. Well, I hope it will be a helpful reference."

" And why would I help you with that?" bakugo said with his arms crossed. Only receiving a short glare from genos before quickly turning away before replying.

"Maybe from this you can Understand your actual limitations before getting yourself killed as a result. Need I not remind you of the other day." genos mentioned seriously. Which only got bakugo to suck his teeth and sit back in seat, kirishima trying to calm him that said everyone else agreed to his terms and what he would do with the data so he began again.

"Snake Bite Sneck, your up first."

Sneck grabbed the device and put it on before the simulation started, he said.

" Hmph, I'm going to show you guys right here, that I'm actually pretty damn strong."

Just as the simulation started all the viewers could see was a big brown humanoid type beetle and then darkness as the simulation suddenly came to a close, to a stunned sneck.

"I was defeated in 3 seconds!" he said astonished

" No. Correctly speaking, it was 2.52 seconds." geno stated factually.

Getting a laugh out of some of the teens there, the loudest being bakugo. Feeling somewhat embarrassed. He tried to save face by questioning the authenticity of the machine.

"There must be something wrong with the strength setting." he said which genos ignored his ramblings and continued on.

"Tsukuyomi, you're up next." Genos said giving the machine to tokoyami.

"What!? if I lost that fast of course a kid won't serve any better." sneck commented leaning on a wall away from everyone else. Especially someone in some cheap costume he muttered.

Tokoyami took the machine and began to put it on. Suddenly his vision was full of light, he saw the giant brown beetle creature in front of him in a giant tiled room with white, he deployed dark shadow from his body ready for battle. Which drew some looks from the audience.

"What the heck is that!?" Metal said quizzically as he looked at the screen, looking at zombieman to see if he knew about this, he merely shrugged his shoulders.

"Don't look at me, I don't know anything about these kids or their powers."

"That's dark shadow, it's a being that lives inside tokoyami and gets stronger when in the dark. He is one of the top four in our class ." Toru said, waving her arms around.

Drawing even more gasps from the heroes in the room, Sneck responded first.

"What? That's a person? There I thought it was just an esper playing a prank on someone." he said, bewildered by the invisible girl. Looking at her suspiciously.

"How rude, everyone in our class has different powers and abilities that make us each unique in our own way." she said.

"Interesting, metal bat exclaimed eager to see what this power of his can do." When the simulation began it was also over in an instant to the shock of the teens present. And only getting a snicker from sneck.

"Ha, not so easy is it?" he commented

Shaking his head, Tokoyami took the headset off and looked disappointed in himself.

Genos questioned if he should truly use A-class heroes for this test but having heard the girls information on him he wanted the teen to try again.

"You lasted three seconds, However from hearing your classmates' description, I would like you to try again, this time the room shall be darker so you can release your full potential." genos stated. Tokoyami nodded his head and put the headset back on and true to the cyborg words, the room was noticeably dark only with red outlines highlighting the area, seeing how strong the beast was tokoyami let dark shadow have full control and fully released itself. Metal bat whistled.

"You weren't wrong about being stronger in the dark, it's much bigger than before."

The simulation began and again it ended almost immediately, tokoyami ripped the machine from his head heavily breathing.

" despite its size increase the results barely changed." Darkshine said.

"Not entirely, He managed to survive for 2 more seconds than previously." genos stated confidently.

"Bakugo, your next." he said staring at the blonde headed teen, seeing his friend beaten so easily even in the dark and without a lightsource to bat did get his blood pumping, he walked towards them taking the machine from tokoyami as he went to sit down and was slowly consoled by his classmates around him. He put the machine on his head and he was greeted with the brown abomination, seeing the fight before he knew what the creature's first move would be so he anticipated it and dogged out of the way he launched several explosions at the creature which didn't make a scratch on its shell. He tried again to attack again but he felt weightless , the feeling being familiar to him somehow then he saw his head was not attached to its body anymore and he watched his body slumped to the ground lifeless as the simulation darkened and concluded.

"You survived a total of 5 seconds as well." genos said but before he could call the next person up the simulation started again. Bakugo had gone at it again and again each time doing slightly better than last but only making milliseconds of difference by the time genos ripped the machine from him, he attempted another 4 times.

"You're done, you approved your time by 1 second from the start, go take your seat." genos said.

"Tch, that extra probably right, there is no way something that strong exists " he said incredulously.

"Who are you calling extra? I'll have you know that I am your senior and A-class rank 37 of the association. You should know your place." snek said snidely only to be crushed by demon cyborgs statement.

"The association ranks him as A-class rank 20, he's above you , Tsukuyomi as well. He's ranked 31."

"What!? There's no way a couple of teens are stronger than me!" he said disbelievingly.

Choosing to ignore him he moved on, " Frozen-Phoenix , your turn is next" he said gesturing to the device.

Todoroki began making his way to the device, passing bakugo who was looking defeated but also shot him a glare as they passed. He took the device from genos and put it on, unlike tokoyami who was consoled when he returned to his seat bakugo was left mostly alone if anything the classmates all slid away from the teen knowing his mood except for kirishima who stayed by his side and attempted to cheer him up only to get yelled at spectacularly.

Todoroki put the device on seeing the huge creature standing before him, taunting him. Seeing how strong the beast was he wasted no time when the simulation began to unleash a massive torrent of flames at the creature but to his shock the creature simply inhaled and blew the attack back at him, thinking fast he created an ice wall to shield himself from his own attack and quickly began to move as the creature immediately crashed through the ice to reach him. Using his ice and flames to accelerate him away from the beast, he stopped and unleashed a giant stream of ice it connected but the creature simply marched through it like daisies, he tried to move again but the creature was already ahead of him jumping up towards the ceiling to come crashing down which he narrowly avoided by moving away and using his ice to alter the creatures path, but even with that the creature managed to graze his arm and by the looks of it, just from the graze it was completely unusable.

He used his leg to summon more ice to buy him time as he charged up heat in his left hand hopping to use a flash fire fist but he never got the chance to the creature burrowed through the ice and headbutt him in the chest sending him flying away towards the far wall, cratering upon impact and knocking the wind out of him him falling to the ground. He found it hard to breathe or even move, He watched as the creature approached and was still attempting to fight, used all the flames at his disposal and launched it at the creature but it did nothing to slow its approach. it walked through the flames like a breeze in the wind and crushed his head. The simulation went dark and he released a breath that he didn't realize he was holding.

"1 minute and 30 seconds, for reference I had a time of 1 minute and 50 seconds. You indeed hold power but you need to work on everything else." Genos commented, while taking the machine from Todoroki, bakugo was balling his fist the entire time glaring daggers at the screen, ignoring the idiot next to him, his thoughts just replaying that beings words.

"Fire and Ice powers huh? Guess the hair's an indicator for that" zombieman commented.

"Metal bat your up next." genos called out.

"About time, I was begging to fall asleep over here." metal bat called out. heading up confidently. He took the machine from genos and placed it on his head. The metal bat sized up the beast raised up his bat and charged forward straight at the beast and they exchanged a series of blows.

" A frontal exchange of blows huh." zombieman commented

"What a great number of attacks," Darkshine said.

"So, manly!, you got a kick ass teacher koda" Kirishima exclaimed, raising a fist into the air.

"Y-yeah, he really is amazing." Koda answered softly.

After a couple of more seconds soon he failed to beat the beast , metal back took off the headset confused.

"What over already?"

"You lost, Metal Bat, because the damage you sustained was too grave for you to continue. You lasted three minutes on your first try, that's impressive in your own right." genos said

"Huh? What are you talking about? I can totally keep going." metal bat inquired

"No, when you are injured to that extent it's over, you're considered dead in the game world."

"Maybe in the game but in real life it wouldn't go down like that death is just a flesh wound, With fighting spirit I would just get back up again for another round!"

"Calm down metal bat, It would make a huge mess if you got into a real fight with genos here."

"Tch, whatever. Just know if that were real I would have totally beat that thing." he said to the rest of the people in the group as he went to sit back down.

" I guess that means I'm up next?" zombieman said as he stood up and approached the device.

" Zombieman, I heard you're an undying hero." geos asked

"If the device can read their abilities it will have no trouble reading mine." he told genos as he put the device on.

As the simulation began zombie man's body was instantly removed from his head by the brown beetle creature, while pulverizing what remained of his body into the ground.

"Hey,Hey isn't the machine supposed to stop when the person takes too much damage?" metal bat replied.

"Oh god I don't think I have the stomach to watch this." Toru said as she turned away from the screen.

" His body is gradually disappearing, is it okay to keep it going? It's starting to look gory as hell." darkshine said.

" This is strange, the battle should have long since been concluded, but the system isn't stopping it. What's going on?" genos said confused.

"It must be because my brain isn't acknowledging this as real danger on a cognitive level. Stuff like this isn't even considered damage." zombieman said simply.

"Bullshit, A body-less head is in no position to say that!" metal said angrily.

30 minutes later

" Looks like it's going to go on for a while, yawns, I'm gonna take a nap. Call me when it's over." metal bat said, turning over and relaxing in his chair.

"I'm also going to take a break and get ready for my battle." darkshine said

"Then aside from Zombieman, it's recess for everyone else. Everyone, go take a break." genos said to everyone who slowly began to filter out of the room, sometime later.

"So how was the experience?" Sato asked tokoyami.

"Yeah, that monster seemed hella strong." Kirishima followed up.

"Indeed, I never felt a presence like it other than gigantomachia. it was incredibly fast and strong, even dark shadow's true potential didn't make a difference." at that dark shadow emerged from tokoyami to speak.

"It definitely felt like I was in the presence of that monster again, I saw him you know? Before he began rampaging he was just down in the fertile position in the liberation's hideout. He was the monster I was referring to when you unleashed me."

"Dang, I can't wait to see Darkshine fight it then. He hit me so hard that it felt like I was hit by machia again." Kirishima said, punching his fist together.

"Really?" tokoyami asked, only receiving a nod in reply.

"What about you todoroki, how would you rate the experience?" they asked the quiet boy.

"Huh, oh it was an experience. It was surely something like machia, no doubt about that, it was incredibly strong and resilient to both my flames and ice." he said stoically. Looking at his hands.

"Yeah, seeing that creature just blow your flames away with his mouth was astonishing. But According to the demon cyborg you almost did as good as him. That must be at least some constellation." Sato said

"They said that you were an S-class and that just confirms it. I'm curious to see how midoriya would do, he is really strong as well. Speaking Of strong, where is bakugo? " Kirishima said. As if his questioning materialized them both koda and toru came rushing towards the group.

"GUY'S! Come quick it's bakugo he's about to fight !" Toru exclaimed, surprising everyone at the table, all of them quickly following her back to the observatory room, where the wall that was there turned into a transparent film showing both bakugo and sneck down below, stretching and getting into a fighting position.

"What happened?" Kirishima asked genos who was watching through the window with them. He simply stated.

"It seems an altercation had happened in the hallway, it escalated into this."

"You're not going to stop them?" sato asked

" King Dynamite Explosion showed increasing levels of aggression as he realized how weak he was, especially after the frozen phoenix's attempt in the simulator. He's probably using this as a stress relief, Sneck on the other hand has an inferiority complex he wants to prove his superiority to someone he considers below him. I doubt any of you can stop them with mere words, it's better to just let them get this out of their system. I'm curious how they fight against someone of their level anyways." genos stated factually.

"And what if they really hurt each other?" Toru asked.

"I doubt it will come to that, it is about to begin." he said as everyone turned their attention back to the two below.

Sneck had gotten into a stance as did bakugo, he immediately launched forward using his propulsion to launch himself at his fellow hero. He slammed his palm in front of the hero using his quirk to blow up the ground beneath him sending the hero into the air sneck quickly stabilized and ready himself as bakugo launched after him his hands already glowing with the explosion ready in his hands. Thinking quickly, Sneck deflected the blow with the palm of his hand, rotating it and throwing the explosion off center, he then followed with a punch to the face with his other hand sending the explosive teen back down.

The explosive teen corrected his fall with an explosion to the ground and looked up as he held his hand up launching multiple AP shots in the air, using his bodies momentum snek tried to avoid the blast but only manage to dodge one or two before being overwhelmed by the others, redevising his strategy he decided to instead to try and protect his most important areas and power through the teens attacks. When he finally reach within striking distance of teen from his fall he tried to strike out with a quick pal strike but the boy moved his head out of the way and counter with an explosion to the mans exposed abdomen sneks other hand quickly caught the wrist of the attacking hand before it could reach its intended target and the explosion launched towards the ground harmlessly.

The hand that missed retracted and grabbed the boy's head and led him straight into a knee strike that staggered the boy backwards a bit. Snek got back into position as the kid recovered from the blow and launched back at him, he believed that the boy was going for another straightforward attack and lashed out as he got into range but to his surprise the boy used his explosions to launch upwards and around behind him landing a solid explosion on the hero's exposed back forcing him forward, he used his explosion to maneuver back around to the hero's front and landed another explosion to his exposed stomach but the hero used his closed proximity to wrap one his arms around the extended hand and delivered multiple snake style attack to the boys abdomen and neck bakguo attempted to use his other hand to attack but sneck trip the boy up causing the explosion to go wide into the air, he struck the boy another couple of times before bakugo used his explosion to launch both of them towards the wall crashing sneck into the wall releasing his grip on the boy's arm, he then used a close range ap shot that was larger than the one before and a cloud of smoke surrounded the area, soon after the person that walked out of the smoke was bakugo heading for the door, leaving an unconscious sneck on the ground, his suit having some tears in it. Bakugo was slightly limping but continued on towards the door.

With that done, the group waited for bakugo to come back up to the room and as he made his entrance and noticed the people staring at him he simply asked.

"What are you guys looking at." and turned to walk back to his seat and watch zombieman match against the beast. The match was just drawing to a close taking 3 hours to finish up and to everyone's surprise zombieman won.

"Zombieman's back!" darkshine said, which stirred metal bat from his slumber.

"Finally admitting defeat?" he said cockily

"I won." was zombie man's simple reply.

"What?" genos said surprised

"He went into carnage mode and after that was done he was too tired to move and I finished him off."

"According to the date on the machine an entire week has passed since you started fighting?" tokoyami questined.

"The machine must have sensed the stalemate and increased the speed of time to find a conclusion, while it's impressive it can't be used as a reference at all." genos said dryly.

"Guess that means I'm finally up! Since we're in virtual space, it would be okay for me to release the full power of my muscles, right? " Darkshine said pumped up. heading towards the machine.

"Yes, go ahead. Show me your full power."

With that confirmation darkshine put on the device and activated the simulation tempted to go all out. Both combatants stared each other down, to the teens surprise the monster began to transform, getting larger and bigger. it's brown skin turned blue with green highlights, it doubled its muscle mass and size and looked incredibly dangerous. The two combattants launched at each other despite his 3x smaller size, darkshine was holding up pretty well similar to metal bat he went for a straightforward approach attacking head on and trading blows with the creature unlike metal bat however the creature was the one getting beaten back and darkshine hadn't taken that much damage at all.

"Woah, I knew you were tuff darkshine but this is insane, so manly" kirishima said

"He's really pushing that thing back, I can't believe it." Tokoyami said, astonished ,dark shadow coming out to see with his own eyes.

"This is a great fight." zombieman commented.

The fight came to a head when darkshine rushed towards the creature in a tackle crashing it into the wall leaving a large indent finishing the creature off he jumped into the air and dropped down on the center of the creature crushing its internal organs and winning the battle, he took the headset off to a round of applause from the teens minus the blonde hair individual. And he got up and bowed before speaking.

"He's a lot stronger than I imagined, it took me 15 minutes."

"Zombieman is undying, so his body makes sense, but what's with your body, Darkshine? Has it been modified?" genos inquired suspicious of darkshines strength.

"Yeah there's no way someone that is quirkless could be that strong!" Toru yelled, waving her arms to and fro excitedly.

"I'm not a cyborg! Although, I can't say my body hasn't been modified… by the power of muscles!" Darkshine said proudly while flexing his muscles.

"So, manly!" kirishima said slightly shaking sato somewhat with his hands

"Muscles you say. Looks like I have to give up on upgrading my parts. Maybe I should discuss with Dr. Kuseno about installing muscle upgrades." genos seriously considered.

"By the way Genos, I saw there are monsters in this to choose from, can I give them a go?"

"Yes, but there is only one other being on there that is as strong as a carnage kabuto" genos said.

"That's fine, set it up!" Darkshine said excitedly to fight another strong opponent.

"Who is it?" zombieman inquired

"For that….I do not know," He turned to look at the teens and continued "But they should be able to tell us when he appears." which drew a bunch of confused glances from the teens.

As the simulation started they were floored by what they saw on screen, the hero's signature smile and red,white,and blue costume combined with his size and glowing blonde hair. Left no doubt in any of their minds almost unanimously all the teens in the room said his name.

"ALL MIGHT!?" they asked confusingly, all staring back at genos curious how he would possibly have data on said individual, most of their faces were of shock but two were of skepticism and another of rage.

"How the hell did you get that data, you scrap heap." bakugo said, voice dripping with venom.

"I simply took the opportunity to learn more about you all. If I'm going to be forced to suffer your presence for sometime then I would have liked to know where you came from. Where you actually came from." he clarified

"That's some serious invasion of privacy, you know you could have just asked them." zombieman said casually.

"And do you suspect me to just take their word for it? How would I know if what they're telling me is the truth or not?" he shot back immediately.

"What reason would they have to lie to you?" zombieman inquired.

"What reason would they have to tell the truth, you saw how suspiciously the association acted when they forced them on us, there's something they aren't telling us and I am not going to take a risk to test out the associations experiments." genos replied sharply.

Zombieman only sighed in response straight forward and overly cautious, he thought.

"They're aliens, plain and simple. Before you ask, they were not a part of the group that destroyed A-city. How they got here is what's classified." zombieman said.

"I've gathered as such, cross-reference from the buildings and sights I've seen from all the cities on the continent found no match. I was there when the aliens were executed they didn't have any human type individuals so I never suspected such a connection."

" and I didn't have to butcher the laws of consent and privacy to get that information." zombieman said.

"Were there even other robots that attacked us?" todoroki inquired

"No." was the cyborg's only reply.

"So it was you that attacked us?"

"...yes." another short answer with no hint of regret or at least embarrassment. The room got eerily quiet and the atmosphere lowered greatly bakugo was fuming mad and some of the classmates could could feel the air cool around todoroki.

"Tell us everything you took from our memories, you bastard!" bakugo said his hands beginning to shows sparks glowing from his hands.

"If you're worried about any secrets being leaked, fear not even the great professor Kuseno doesn't have that technology to look into memories completely. I only went through important fight's in your life. And took data from them, I deleted anything the machine didn't deem a demon level threat or higher. Mostly the only data provided from your world are this man, a bunch of darked skinned monsters, as well as…. If my guess is correct. Your father, frozen-phoenix."

The air around Todoroki turned even colder, his anger barely contained, bakugo on the other hand simply marched up to the demon cyborg, glaring at him the entire time but as he reached him the sparks in his palms fell away and he marched out of the door. Letting it close behind him.

"That was really, unmanly of you man." kirishima said as he went to follow bakugo out of the room and calm him down before doing anything foolish. Sato was busy texting to see if Iida was ok, him protecting todoroki and bakugo was a serious consideration in their discussion to let him leave with his hero but this new revelation could turn that on his head, he worried about his friends safety.

Sensing the tense atmosphere Darkshine wisely did not continue with his fight with all might but went towards a new fighter instead. He pushed a button on the machine and the simulator changed into a purple hallway. The being had a cape with eccentric armor with spiky shoulder pauldrons and purple spiky hair. He walked down a few steps and approached darkshine.

"Who the hell is that?" metal bat asked looking to genos who shook his head.

"Any ideas frozen-phoenix?" metal bat asked him. He to looked at the screen and shook his head.

"Well it won't be stronger than Kabuto so let's just test him out." Darkshine said. Launching an attack at the individual who barely budged from the blow shocking everyone in the room. The being attacked back and launched darkshine into a metal column. Getting back up he stood up ready to fight again but a little worse for ware than his entire match with kabuto. The fight lasted a couple of more minutes with darkshine quickly losing ground only for the armor to finally fall off and a burst of power to flash on screen, and suddenly it went dark signaling that darkshine had lost.

"Let me try, I wanna fight that thing!" metal bat exclaimed

"Wait, I dunno somethings wrong, this thing seems broken." darkshine said confused.

"Whatever it was, it must have short circuited the machine and caused it to malfunction, I guess that means we're done for the day." genos said as he held the machine in his hand, still questioning where the mysterious being came from, if it wasn't from dynamite or phoenix that only left one option.

"Well, that was something, where did you meet a monster like kabuto anyways." metal bat asked.

"Me and my master had fought him after we were attacked by the house of evolution. My master defeated kabuto.`` The air suddenly froze and surprising even Geno's sensor zombieman suddenly filled his vision, all sense of casualty gone from his face only leaving a serious scowl.

"Explain. further." he said angrily.

"Master had piqued the interest of and to rid ourselves of being attacked at home again we attacked his headquarters instead." he said stoically.

"Did you kill him?" zombieman questioned.

"No, there was a supermarket sale and we had to hurry away." If zombieman wasn't so in the moment he would have punched demon cyborg in the face for such an excuse. But more pressing matters pertain to him at the moment.

"I assume you still have the coordinates to his base? Give it to me." zombieman demanded.

"Why such a massive interest?" geos questioned.

"Let's just say I have a personal interest in that organization ." he said, reaching into his coat pocket and pulling out his desert eagle and pointing it at genos, creating an incredibly tense situation for everyone in the room. Although genos showed no signs of concern. Only displaying a holographic map of the area from his eyes. Making zombieman put his weapon away to inspect it.

"There is a cellar door located at this location that will bring you down into the facility me and my master infiltrated." memorizing it and making a quick nod to genos he took off towards the doorway but before leaving addressed the two students that were beginning to follow him.

"You two stay here, as I said this is personal business and if something like kabuto is still around I don't want you guys in the way." he said to tokoyami and toru, as he left the door closing behind him. Toru let out a sigh of relief.

"Honestly he's right, I really didn't want to follow him to that spooky place, seeing it in a game is one thing but seeing something like that in real life? I wouldn't be able to stand it." Tokoyami only nodded in return as he looked as the door closed, curious about what drove the hero so far to even threaten a fellow hero about this organization.

"Well with that out of the way, I will be leaving now. I need to check up on a hunch I found, ``Genos said as he casually left with the device in hand. Todoroki, not following behind him, as he is still in his own world. Leaving only the teens and darkshine in the room.

"Well I need to go report to my teacher, it's about that time now anyways." Sato mentioned as he left.

"I'm heading towards the weight lifting area if anyone is interested in joining me." darkshine inquired. To his and other people's shock, Toru lifted her hand to accompany him.

"You to animal planet, I told you are going to need to bulk up if you hope to be a hero and I mean it." metal bat said to koda as he looked down and only nodded his head.

"Well in that case, I might as well join you all. I may not be a physical fighter like the rest of you but I can still seek to improve myself." tokoyami said.

"Excellent, what about you frozen-phoenix?" Darkshine said happy to have some new training partners. But the teen didn't respond, only shaking his head, walking out the door while shifting through his thoughts. Everyone else left the kid alone knowing that he needed his space and headed over to one of the association's nearest gyms.

Kirishima finally managed catch up to where bakugo had headed, surprisingly the angry teen made significant distance in the little time he left, that or kirishima was just lost going around the similar looking interior, mostly everything was the blackish-gray metal that coated the exterior with little deviation for personality or fashion, instead only relying on purpose and function to distinguish things from each other.

What gave kirishima the tip however were the sounds of explosions ripping through the halls of one of the training areas, simply following the noise until it became louder and louder before finally reaching the room bakugo was in, the room was a barren with rocks with varying degrees of altitudes, similar to the mountain zone in the USJ, bakugo was currently near the bottom of a plateau launching multiple explosions at its base carving a whole around 5 times his size with each blow. As Kirishima approached him the frequency of his explosions began to die down until it came to a complete stop with his palm still on the wall he spoke.

"What do you want, shitty hair?"

"How did you know it would be me?" Kirishima replied somewhat surprised.

"Easy, you're the only idiot that would follow me, so again what do you want?" he said a bit more aggressively.

"Well, I was coming to see if you were ok and that you didn't do anything dumb in your anger." kirishima mumbled that last part but not low enough to not be heard as bakugo turned to face him.

"I'm not one of you extras, I know how to manage myself just fine."

"Clearly." Kirishima said skeptically as he began looking around the room, seeing the blast craters around the area.

"What was that!" bakugo yelled, taking a step towards him. Making kirishima put his hands up in mock surrender.

"Nothing! I can understand how you feel, I wouldn't want someone messing around in my head without my permission either." he put his hands down.

"I don't care about what that walking toaster did." bakugo replied

"Really? Then what's up with you?" Kirishima asked, perplexed.

"What makes you think something's up?" Bakugo inquired, only receiving a disbelieving look from kirishima. Sighing he continued.

"That simulation of all might…. It was when I was young.. When he was still the symbol of peace before I….ruined everything." bakugo said solemnly. Earning a shocked expression from kirishima.

"None of what is happening is your-"

"If only I wasn't captured that day, all might would have had more time left, things could have been different than how they are now. If only I wasn't so…..weak." bakugo interrupted.

"Things could also have been worse, all for one would have been left to roam free and weak? Dude seriously? You're damn strong, sure you're not the strongest but you don't have to be as long as everyone chips in everything will be fine. Besides we all saw your fight with that other guy, I'm sure you showed him how tuff you are."

Bakugo chuckled slightly at that, but he did give some praise to that sneck guy he was stronger than bakugo thought he'd be that's for sure, people of this would even without a quirk have the capability to be strong, really strong and this only told him that he was training hard enough.

He launched himself at kirishima an explosion raring to go in his hands, the explosion landed and like expected kirishima stood there hardened.

"What the hell bro, what did I say?!" he said, his body braced for another attack .

"You said I'm not the strongest and that just means I gotta train harder. And you're a lot more durable than these rocks. I'm curious how much you've improved since I whooped you in the sports festival. Let's have another match right here, right now." he said, getting into a stance ready for battle with a grin on his face.

"You're on!" Kirishima replied enthusiastically, getting into his stance as well as both combatants then charged at each other.

Reformation and Redistribution: Drive Knight , Yaoyorozu , Kaminari

Kaminari and yaoyorozu were both again guided back down into drive knights lair, having seen everything before allowed the two to walk with more confidence, they were led into a different area this time that was separated from the storage room as kaminari called it that contained different beings in cages/exhibits. This time the room that the two found themselves in were a large area with two separate areas separated by a large wall, one contained a machine it looked similar to a fictional generator with two of it's antenna pointed down towards a single area. Drive knight stopped in front of said room and turned to the two teens.

"I would like to begin experimenting with your quirks and abilities. This machine here currently contains 800 million volts of electricity, It will shoot out those bolts of electricity towards the area designated. I want you to absorb said electricity and release it back out, it will then be reabsorbed by the generators on the walls and fed back into the machine in a continuous loop. Any questions?" drive knight explained pointing towards a number of the tech found in the one room before looking towards kaminari expectantly.

"Only concerns about the safety of this test." yaoyorozu asked in kaminari's place.

" I assure you that the machine is safe, all he would have to do to stop the cycle is to yell the words "stop" and the machine would be shut off. " He explained going inside the room and stepping into the designated area and starting the machine, a blast of electricity blasted him and seemingly was absorbed by his very being. He then began to be shot multiple times by the bolts of electricity before saying stop after being hit by 10 million volts of electricity. He walked out of the room and gestured for Kaminari to go in, the boy shot one glance at his classmate and then with a nod went into the chamber as drive knight closed the door behind him, going to the designated spot where he waited for the machine to begin.

"I will begin on one million volts every 3 seconds, given your limit of 300 million volts if my theory is wrong and discharging doesn't improve your time, it will take you 1min and 40 seconds to overload."

metal knight said mechanically with that he started the machine up, kaminari raised his finger into the air, preparing for the voltage to rain down, he absorbed the first burst and quickly attempted to discharge the energy before the second volley came, being able to discharge most before the second volley came, he absorbed it as well and repeated this process for the full minute and 40 seconds and to momo's surprised that the robot's theory worked but just barely, he only lasted for 3 more times before his body started to vibrate, his hands and his thumbs started to move into the same comical position that they normally did when his brain was fried, the machine immediately halted as the last shot rained down. Kaminari had lasted a total of 1 minutes and 58 seconds, 18 more seconds than he would have normally, meaning that he had absorbed 6 million more volts than normal.

"Interesting." was the only thing drive knight said.

"It seems, you were right. He did last longer using this method than just absorbing things out right." yaoyorozu mentioned.

"With that I had no doubt if his brain was like a capacitor only being able to absorb so much before overloading it would be simple to deduce that releasing energy would drain the capacitor and leave room to spare for more energy."

"It could have worked like a mental overload instead? The dual purpose of absorbing and expending, draining his mental capacity faster than normal." Momo mentioned earning a stare from the cyborg singular eye.

" A fair observation, It is in luck that it was the latter than. But that is not what I find interesting, what I find interesting is his overloaded state. Why does he choose to get into that pose and perform that action?" he questioned the girl.

"I don't know, he never told us and I doubt he knows either." Momo said with a shrug, only getting a humm in reply from the hero.

"Is he cognitive enough to understand speech?" drive knight asked

"Not really no." momo said, shaking her head.

"I see, I will leave a bot in his care to explain his next instructions once he becomes able to continue. You on the other hand can follow me."

drive knight said as he began to walk towards the room next door to the one Kaminari was in, it was a clear white room empty of everything but the two of them inside, he asked her to take a distance of 30 meters before finally stopping and facing him again.

"Your power is vastly intriguing to me. I would like a demonstration if you would.

Obliging momo created a simple metal staff. Coming out of her hand.

"Interesting, given that you created a staff first, I assume that is your preferred method of attack? Although the materials you used are brittle."

Momo scoffed at the remark about the brittleness of her weapon given that it was made of pure tungsten. "I wouldn't call this brittle, but yes in terms of close quarters combat I would mostly rely on the staff and shield." she said proudly, the staff that she held was then suddenly cut in half to her shock, she looked at drive knight who held up one finger.

"I destroyed that staff with one finger, I would wager that it is probably of weaker material than of that glass there. What other weapons do you use for combat? For long range engagements for example."

Momo was still shocked at the revelation that he broke her staff, she didn't even see him move and did he really believe that simple glass could be stronger than tungsten? Gathering herself she replied.

"Well for longer range engagements I can create this cement gun and for my ultimate attack." beside her a cannon manifested.

That's all? Drive knight thought. " May I see the strength of your cannon. I would assume the ammunition you have makes it stronger than its antique looking status would imply." drive knight said curiously.

"Are you….asking me to shoot you with the cannon?" Momo asked worriedly.

"There is no cause for concern, I doubt that you would be able to hurt me, let alone kill me. So your worry is not warranted."

"Um…ok if you say so." she agreed, still having doubts about it. She got behind the cannon and created a traditional shot for ammunition. She lined up the shot and fired, to her surprise she was sure that drive knight stepped into the cannon shot that she attempted to slightly angle away from him, instead hitting him dead on in the center. Panicked she started to run through the dust to see if he was alright only to reveal drive knight still standing there staring at her approach. She slowed her run into a walk and stopped in front of the machine to her surprise he didn't have a scratch on his body. What was he made of she wondered?

"I am… disappointed in your lack of creativity. There are a number of weapons that you could create for a stronger attack and a lot that are not as cumbersome and mass intensive as that cannon, do you have a persversion to things such as guns, rps, or other explosives?" drive knight inquired.

"It's..it's not that I don't know of other guns. It's just I've never been properly trained in such positions and I don't want to cause any accidents due to my carelessness."

"That's a noble answer, firearms in the hands of someone that is untrained are just as deadly to the wielder as is to the opponent, let alone civilians in the area. In that case, would you like to learn?" the hero questioned

"Um…. I don't know.. I don't like the thought of killing someone really." momo said, rubbing her shoulder.

"You don't like to kill yet, you want to be a hero? If you remain like that, monsters will take advantage of your weakness and kill you once you let your guard down. You do realize that right? Monsters don't care for human life and we should not care about them in turn." drive knight said

"Tha-" her statement died in her throat, they were in a different world than where she came from, whatever these monsters are they may not be completely sentient beings just something like animals that kill indiscriminately or out of instinct and the only way for people to make them stop is to kill them back.

"If you are truly afraid of killing something, you can additionally create rubber bullets or some other alternative, But I warn you to be careful in this action you may give them a second chance but they will not return the gesture. Moving on from firearms for now, we could practice on your staff training." This made Momo raise her head to meet the cyborg in the eyes.

"Have you practiced with the staff before?"

"No, but I have accumulated the knowledge I have found on techniques and forms that I have online to train you." suddenly between them a small circle platform opened and from out the whole raised two bo staff, made of some lightweight metal. She took one as drive knight took another, she got into a stance as drive knight mirrored hers and they began.

Flow like water: Bang,Charanko, Midoriya,Ojiro

Ojiro was surprised that the traditional opening to Bang's training was a multi-kilometer run around the the mountain that was his dojo, he was less surprised that at how midoriya was holding up with it however, at the start him and bang were simply gone from sight, he may have thought the two were actually racing to see who finished first. He however was struggling after the first kilometer but he was ahead of bang's supposed best student who was struggling just as hard as he was if not a bit worse than him which he found particular, surely he should be used to this training by now? He slowed down somewhat to keep pace with his fellow student.

"Is this something new he's doing?, I would have thought being a long time pupil that you would be used to this by now if this was a regular occurrence everyday."

"It….was…but not after…what happened. We… would just practice forms instead of the full shebang…you know." Charanko said, gasping as he continued to run.

Ojiro nodded in understanding and continued to run next to his fellow disciple, soon they both felt drafts of wind past by both of them which he could only assume were bang and midoriya lapping them as they ran past. They finally completed their first lap around the place only to see bang and midoriya waiting by the stairs for the two of them, bang halted them before they passed.

"There has been a change of plans instead of the usual practice today, midoriya insist that he wants to go out into the city as he can sense people in danger, Despite my best efforts to assure him that other heroes can take care of it, he insists to go and I shall accompany him, Charanko I will leave ojiro in your care for now go over the forms,even some light sparring if your up for it."

"Ok" was Charanko's only reply but ojiro's face was mixed.

"Can't I come alone with the both of you?" he asked, confused.

"We won't be gone long, I can assure you. You're more compatible with my martial art than your friend here so I would like for you to practice as much as possible to master it."

Ojiro simply nodded his head in understanding but still seeing the discouraged face on the boy bang continued.

"Don't worry now, You will be able to get out there soon enough." he patted the boy's shoulder as he and midoriya prepared to leave, disappearing from sight again. Ojiro was still about to continue his run again before noticing Charanko slowly going up the stairs quickly stopping and yelling out to the teen.

"Aren't you going to continue the run? We're only a quarter of the way done."

"What!? You still want to continue? Bang's gone, no point in continuing, just say that we finished when he gets back." Charanko said casually.

"That wouldn't help us improve though, I didn't think laziness was one of bangs teachings. I would have expected more from bang's top student." ojiro said mockingly, getting an annoyed look at the boy on the stairs.

"Don't disrespect bang, he never slouches when it comes to his training." Charanko said, stepping forward threateningly.

"Really? Well your lack of discipline can only speak to his lack of teaching skills then." ojiro shot back. Angering the boy more who stepped forward even more.

"This is your last warning, stop disrespecting him." Charanko said menacingly in front of his fellow disciples face.

"Or what? You're gonna run and tell on a teacher that ditches his duties?" ojiro replied with a smirk. Which pushed the boy over the edge launching a punch at him that he dodged and using his tails leaped away taunting Charanko to follow him as he ran away the boy following close behind.

Midoriya and bang launched off from his dojo towards the innermost center towards the city, Bang allowed midoriya to lead the way just to test out how his danger sense worked. Midoriya was being guided by his danger sense, using the buildings to jump from rooftop to rooftop, using his speed and momentum to continue forwards with bang close behind. Midoriya stopped overlooking the streets below, the alarms were already blaring.

"Monster of threat level tiger detected, please all civilians evacuate to designated safe areas or bunkers!"

The monster was already in battle with a hero with a giant hammer in the shape of a meat pounder, the monster was some amalgamation with a lion head with sharp jaws, big chest and bigger arms with a horse-like lower body. The hero attempted to swing it's hammer at the creature head but it was completely blocked by it's massive arm and hand it, launched a punch with the other hand sending the hero flying back into a wall, throwing the weapon behind him and charging at the hero readying to bite his next, midoriya exploded into action, using his black whips to wrap around the creatures legs and launched a kick into the creatures side causing the creature to fly in the direction hitting and denting a parked car. It shook and rose to its feet ready to attack again but before it could, it sensed something was next to it looking and seeing an old man he wanted to use him as a hostage before suddenly losing sight of him and feeling pain all over its body and shortly after nothing at all.

Midoriya rushed over to the hero and asked if he was ok. He told the boy that he was the C-class hero meat pounder before asking for his name, following the hero's example he announced that he was the S-class hero Green menace but that he could just call him deku instead. Helping him to his feet he let the hero walk off after handing him his weapon with his dark whip. Turning his attention towards bang and the villian that was down next to him. He approached slowly at first but after realizing that the creature didn't even move and didn't even breathe he began to run towards it, quickly taking a look and feeling for any signs of life and finding…none. Bang just killed this being.

"Why?" was all midoriya could say.

"What was that my boy?" bang said with such ease like he didn't know anything was wrong.

"Why did you kill it?" Midoriya looked from the creature to bang.

"You have more than enough strength to just knock it unconscious but you took it's life. Why?"

"Well, we are heroes, is this not our purpose? To get rid of threats to humanity?" bang asked confusedly.

"But that doesn't mean we have to kill them to do so, killing should be…the final..measure." Midoriya said, his voice getting lower and lower as he spoke, thinking of what Iida said, hearing it was one thing but actually seeing it was another. The creature's bones were completely shattered, it probably had numerous lacerations and internal hemorrhaging and died fairly quickly.

"Listen young midoriya, monsters are not people, they have no sense of morals or society. They will terrorize and kill for pleasure or sport alone and they almost certainly can't be redeemed. But if you wish to spare some, we can. The association does arrest monsters that can be captured, however the fate that awaits them under the association is unknown; you may only be prolonging their suffering." bang warned.

"If they can get a chance at a new life, then that would be better than ending it prematurely. I will take that chance." Midoriya said somewhat coldly.

"So be it then, from henceforth I will only knock monsters unconscious." bang said moving his hand over his heart.

"Thank you." Midoriya said, smiling again.

With that they both headed off, through the city again using midoriya danger sense to locate problems or monsters that they would take care of, due to the no killing rule bang swore to they would have to wait for the association to arrive and pick up the unconscious monsters spending more time on locations than was completely necessary. Bang eventually said that it was enough for the day and midoriya agreed no longer sensing danger with his ability and they both left back towards the dojo, where they found ojiro looking over Charanko on the ground.

"Oh, I see that you two have been sparring in our absence." bang said nonchalantly as he opened the door.

"You can say something of that effect, yes," Ojiro replied, somewhat winded. While Charanko was nowhere near his master level in the rock smashing fist he was further along at it than he was with only a day of training and he tried to only use techniques and forms from the style against him to give his disciple a fair chance at winning the "spar" although to him it probably was a real fight.

"Well, Charanko get up so that I can continue with my lessons." bang instructed

He begrudgingly sat up and went to the designated area shooting a look at ojiro before taking his seat as did the other two dis beside him.

Amphibian and reptile : Asui

As Asui was exiting the common area with everyone else she was also approached by the bearded agent.

"Actually Froppy, I need you to come with me." She casted a glance at her classmates. Who all shrugged and looked at the man. And began to follow him towards their destination, getting into an elevator going further down into the association.

"May I ask what you need me for?" asui asked directly

"Well as you may have become aware of but, in our world we have creatures that we original called mysterious beings, originally we assume them to be only to be composed of beings that were just strange abominations brought upon this other from years before humanity settled into power, but now it has become increasingly obvious as we learn more about them that human aswell can transform into these type of beings given certain circumstances."

The elevator stopped and the agent began to lead the way again.

"What would those circumstances be?" Asui asked.

"A number of different things; anger, revenge, ugliness, dissatisfaction with their normal lives, or obsession over an object or item, which brings you here today, yesterday we managed to pick up a monster that we call tongue stretcher the other day, he was once a regular man but transformed into a lizard-man due to obsession with them."

They stopped in front of a glass window in a containment area. It held some rocks and grass around on a hard metal floor, similar to an exhibit, inside was the man in question. He had black curly hair with a green lettermans jacket on, with a one shirt underneath, and blue pants. He was distinctly chameleon-like green with a tale behind him.

"Ok, but what do you want me to do?" Asui asked.

"We would like for you to speak to him, try and persuade him to be more cooperative and merge back into society. From blood samples taken his name was Jordan. We assume that if he spoke to someone more like himself that he would be more open to negotiating."

"I see." asui said as she took another glance at the man through the glass before remembering what dogman and the comitti said about monsters and what they do to them.

"What would happen to him if he refuses to comply? Will you kill him?"

"We haven't decided on what to do with him for now but if he attempts to cause trouble while you're in there he will be dealt with I assure you, you'll be safe." asui thought about his response, it wasn't a yes or no answer but he also implied that they did not have any calms of killing if he got out of hand. She would at least try and save him from that fate if she had the chance.

"I'll do it, I'll talk to him." froppy said with a determined nod. Before she was escorted away she was handed a device with a button on it, which would signal that she needs help and no doubt that the execution team would come in to kill jordan, she just hoped she wouldn't have to use it. She was led through numerous doors until she was in front of the one that contained jordan. She was directed inside and the door behind her was locked behind her, she turned to face the other being in the exhibit who locked its eyes on her.

"Hohoho, is this my offering? Did the association here of my great battle with king? I would have preferred someone a bit older but I'll accept nonetheless" Jordan said, his tongue going across his lips.

" offering? Kin-"asui eyes widened, the name sounded familiar wasn't that mineta current mentor. He said that king was the strongest S-class around and given how watchdog man treated monsters, this man must be str-

"Correction, Asui while tongue Stretcher did encounter king, he immediately surrendered upon meeting him and was arrested shortly after. He is a relatively weak monster of threat level wolf. " the bearded worker said over the intercom.

"Tch, well what do you want?" Jordan said his entire tone deflating from the voice.

"I came just to talk about you getting out of here and returning back to society." asui said honestly.

" Why would I want to do that? I'm different now. I am better than all of those normal people, why should I submit to them now again, they are beneath me. And so are you!" he immediately launched his tongue at her causing asui to jump up onto the ceiling and stick there upside down staring at jordan, who stared in shock.

"Jordan, just because you're stronger now doesn't mean that you're superior to regular people. They still have the same rights that you do. Trust me I'm just like you, you can still be accepted." asui said as she extended her tongue towards the ground and then lifted it back up into her mouth.

"Is that supposed to change my mind?….. You're still mostly human, you can still pass off as human. But me? Who would accept me!? I'm a freak now.(he silently chuckled to himself) no even when I was a human I was considered a freak, the weird lizard guy, girls would ignore me ,guys would bully me, and all I wanted to show them were that lizards are cool and interesting but only being met with ridicule and destain, I would show them the true power of lizards , I would show all of them."

he launched his tongue out again at her which she dodged and then activated her camouflage. Getting closer to the man. She wanted to tell him that it was ok to be different but she wasn't really sure if that was the case here, with no quirks, mutants would be impossible here and anything out of the ordinary would be labeled as a monster. Perhaps the hero association could help him in that regard.

"The hero association could probably help you with that, ribbit."

"You're a fool, if you think the hero association would help anyone but themselves." he said as he lashed his tongue out towards the sound of asui voice, but before he could do more, he was wrapped up behind by asui tongue.

"What makes you say that?" she managed to get out before, feeling something on her tongue. Causing her to immediately attempt to slam Jordan into the wall, releasing her grip on him as he was thrown, he corrected himself in mid awareness and used his tail to stop his flight as he looked at her drawing his tongue back into his mouth.

"Tasty." was his only word that came out of his mouth sending a repulsive chill down asui spine, Monsterficaton must have changed his personality as well. Tsu jumped upwards towards the ceiling then came down with a drop kick using both feet, Jordan just had enough time to block with his arms sliding back a couple of meters in the process.

"They're your only chance at a normal life again, even if you don't trust them you should be able realize that much, right. " she said as she dodged a tail swipe from the individual

"Yeah life under the association or death, such a great choice of options" he replied

sarcastically.

Throwing his tongue out and successfully landing it on her right shoulder, he quickly drew her in but to his surprise she went along with the pull, jumping with it to increase the speed, she closed the distance before he could react asui had stuck her hand in his mouth, it had a weird flavor around it, his body immediately clammed up and he suddenly dropped to the floor, unable to move his body only his eyes as he followed the girl that stood above him.

"Any type of life that is not constant suffering is better than death. In my world people like you were considered normal, that might not be the case here but you can change that with your actions. Ribbit , With your strength I'm sure you can be a hero and that way you can still show everyone that doubted you before that you are better than they thought, by acting out you're just proving them right. Ribbit" as she finished telling him that, she asked to be let out as she walked towards the door. She was greeted by the bearded worker.

"You didn't press the button?"

"No, as you said he was a weak monster, besides I still think he can change and I would like to give him the chance to."

"I see. Well you are free for the remainder of the day. You may do as you wish. And for a thank you for your cooperation here you go." He handed her a group ticket coupon for a restaurant for her whole class.

"Thank you very much. If we are done I will just go back to my room and wash my mouth out preferably." bearded worker simply nodded, escorting her back to the main elevator. As she went back up , bearded worker was approached by Sitch.

"The results?"

"Somewhat positive, the individual was more open to talking about itself with a like-bodied individual but it still was emotionally and morally unstable."

"They fought?"

"Yes, the girl disabled him using some sort of self generated mucus from her skin. She also said more stuff when he was disabled but only time will tell if it will have any effect on the monster."

"Keep me posted on it's condition once it's out of it's shock." he said as the elevator came back down and sitch got in

"Will do, sir." were all bearded worker said as the elevator doors closed.

Different world, Different rules: Tank Top Philosopher, Shoji

Shoji was taken back to the Tank top headquarters which he came to realize was just a giant gym, going by its looks. Although it did have the tank tops army branding on it designating it as theirs. But before he began to step into the gym, Tank top master and a number of other Tank toppers began to emerge from the building.

"Good, you're here. You're going on patrol today, along with the other tank toppers, you will be with Tank top girl and Tank top philosopher. Everyone usually roams in two man teams but you'll be the exception for now." Tank master said

Shoji agreed and with that a number of tank toppers left the gym behind wishing each other luck and getting into separate vehicles. Seeing the questioning look on his face, Tank girl spoke.

"The tank toppers are a continent wide organization, while our main base of operations is here, we lend aid to all cities across the continent."

"I see." was all Shoji could say.

"It's mostly just a way for the Tank topper to show off to the citizens around them." Tank philosopher said as he walked up beside them reading that book of his. Tank girl immediately snapped at him.

"Should you really be saying that to our newest member?, don't you want him to have a good impression of us?"

"I see no point in lying to the boy or to myself about how the Tank top army operates. I have seen you have concerns for those involved as well." he said without looking up at the girl. Who only sighed in defeat.

"It's not that they aren't good guys, but their ego does tend to get ahead of them from time to time. But they are fearless and would jump into battle at the slightest chance, even if they are outmatched. " she said confidently, looking at shoji.

"Whether that be from chivalry and dedication or recognition and arrogance, is up for great debate." Tank philosopher added

"Would you just be quiet, already!" Tank girl said, getting annoyed.

Hoping to change the topic and elevate tension, Shoji decided to speak up.

"So where are we going for Patrol today?" turning back around to face the teen Tank girl replied.

"Where going to stay in this city for the day, as for route, where just gonna..kinda wander aimlessly until we hear the alarms blaring." Tank girl said, rubbing the back of her head. As they began to walk around. Shoji was taking in the surroundings of the city, seeing what seemed familiar and what seemed different from what he was used to back in his world. He occasionally caught glances from people he passed or across from him, staring at him like he was some sort of freak or monster. He probably guessed the reason things didn't exaggerate further was due to the two Tank toppers around him. Tank Philosopher must have also seen some of the stares he got because he spoke from behind him.

"Don't be discouraged by them, they are not used to seeing a unique individual such as yourself. They are close minded but as long as you're with us everything should be fine."

Shoji nodded his head and was about to speak when suddenly alarms were raised. A voice was heard over an intercom.

"Warning, Warning … monster has been detected in Central avenue. Current threat level wolf possible escalation to tiger as more information is gathered. Remain calm and avoid the area if possible."

Shoji, looked around as the announcement played out, at first it seemed the audience was slightly panicked but upon hearing the monster was classified as a wolf, everyone seemed to settle down and carry on as usual. He found that interesting, he guessed that either wolf level threats weren't taken seriously or that the distance from wherever that was to where there current location is were too far to away to get worked up over.

"Only a wolf-level huh? Well we should still get over there, just to be sure." Tank girl said while stretching somewhat.

"From here, it should take us around 10 minutes to get there if we run." Tank philosopher said. Well there goes that theory of distance shoji thought, so it only left him with the other theory of just the threat not being rather threatening.

"You should get stretching too, Don't want to have you pulling anything and slowing down." Tank philosopher said stretching as well. Shaking shoji out of his thoughts he began to stretch like the both of them once they were ready, they all ran towards the scene of the attack, to his surprise he quickly lost sight of Tank girl, but kept up just fine with Tank philosopher and just as he predicted the two got there 10 minutes from when they started, they arrived to see Tank Girl just sitting down on a police car drinking a protein shake, staring disbelieving at the two new arrivals.

"What the hell took you both so long, are those rambling you keep reading affecting your body too?" Tank girl teased.

"I said it would take us 10 minutes, If we both left at full speed. It would leave shoji alone, causing unnecessary complications." Tank philosopher said casually.

"How the hell did you know how fast the kid was? wait, don't tell me the book?" she said with a not-convinced look. Only receiving a cheeky nod in return, shoji was more worried about the threat that they were there for.

"What about the Wolf-level threat? Why are you just sitting here and not trying to deal with the situation?" he exclaimed seriously.

"Hey, don't take that tone with me, I'm still your senior, don't forget that. It's not my fault really, it's these people." she said kicking the car she was sitting in.

"The police won't let you, help?" Shoji was perplexed.

"The police and the hero association has a great on-going rivalry, well rivalry is to good of a term to describe it, the police has essentially been render obsolete because of the hero association, losing funding and numerous personnel, as a result we are not allowed to interfere with each others affairs and must wait until all of their forces are defeated until entering." Tank philosopher explained starting to sit down on the police car as well, opening the book and reading the blank contents.

Shoji couldn't believe what he was hearing the heroes and police were against each other? Shouldn't public safety come first above all else? He looked over to the two heroes then looked at the police behind them, they had blocked off the street with their cars and were currently engaged with a human-octopus hybrid which had an octopus head with a human body, with two regular hands and 6 tentacles coming out from his abdomen down.

The last officer was just getting thrown towards the cars they were by when he leapt into action, catching the officer in his elongated arms before placing him on the ground. And jumping into the street to face the creature. Seeing Shoji jump into the scene, Tank girl was about to follow before a hand touched her shoulder holding her in place.

"Let the new recruit handle this." Tank philosopher stated.

"Are you the next challenger? You want to fight the great octo-man!" the man stated proudly, to shoji's disbelief at such a dumb name.

"How about you just calm down and come with me, you caused enough damage. To prove whatever point you were trying to make." Shoji asked, trying to reason.

"Hah, you think you can stop me with such Idol talk? The power of the octopus is mine to control and I will do what I will with it!" he said as he launched three tentacles of his at shoji, who countered back by extending out three arms of his own catching each one and holding them in place.

"OH! You are really challenging me to an octo-off? Bring it on then!" the man said launching his other three tentacles that shoji countered the same way, before using one of the smaller tentacles from his head to shoot out ink from it to his face which caught shoji in the eyes, quickling pulling the teen in towards him as he was off balance from the maneuver. Getting ready with his human hands to punch the hero down..

"I am the octopus king, you should never have challenged me in my re-" he stopped as he suddenly saw two eyes sprout out from the back of the hero, shoji sprouted two more eyes and multiple more hands that caught the punch the villain threw, and returned with a multitude of his own catching the villain off-guard. Successfully landing multiple punches over the villain body before finishing with an 12 punches to the villains face that sent him towards the ground. Knocking him out.

"Woohoo! you go new kid, you sure showed him!" He heard from behind him from Tank girl as he turned his created eyes to her while he was still cleaning the gunk from his face, before hearing a gunshot go off. Quickly turning to see that it was aimed at him but was stopped by tank top philosophers book.

"What do you think you're doing, officer." Tank Philosopher said menacingly

"What are you talking about that guy's clearly a mo- aah!" his sentence was cut off as tank Philosopher sent the crushed casing on the outer side of his book straight into the officer's gun, destroying it completely.

"He is clearly with us, the hero association and the Tank Tops newest recruit Tentocole." he said with venom in his voice. Before suddenly throwing the book in front of shoji, to his shock right at the creature that was getting up and was about to stab him with a spike from his face tentocole only to be stopped when his head was completely crushed from the force of Philosopher's throw, making his body fall loosely to the ground. Shoji finally was able to shake the ink from his face before staring at the lifeless body as Philosopher received his book from the man caved in the head.

"You did well, but you have to make sure you finish off your opponent before turning your attention away from them." he said in a kind manner, seemingly unaware that he just killed a man. Tank top girl came up behind him and clasped his shoulder, before moving forward.

"I guess you showed him who really is the king octopus around here, onward we go to the next scene." she said as her and Tank Philosopher just carried on, taking one last look at the body before following along behind them he thought, new universe new rules indeed.

Combat Training: Child emperor, Mina, Jiro

Jiro and mina both walked into as what mina called it Child play pin, they were greeted by one of his machines that lead them towards where they assumed child emperor was located, taking extra precaution to walk next to mina just in case the excitable girl tried to run off at the slightest thing that catches her fancy. They soon spotted the hero, who was in front of a large area that looked like a mick city street. Mina saw her equipment from yesterday on a table next to the kid and immediately ran towards it. The robot was about to stop her but was halted by child emperor, she immediately grabbed the gloves and rubbed them against her cheek.

"OH, I missed these things..so much!"

"It's only been a day." child emperor said dryly.

"You, don't get this is the first support item, I'm actually able to use it because of my quirk, the support course students tried making something but my acid was always too strong for the material."

"MINA!" Jirou exclaimed worriedly, giving her friend a shushing look.

Covering her mouth Mina just looked like a deer caught in headlights turning from her friend back to the hero, who looked somewhat curious about what she was talking he decided to address the elephant in the room first.

"You don't have to be so secretive around me, I partially helped build the hero associations' firewalls and I left myself some backdoors just in case things happened,I know you and your friends aren't from around here and different from the rest of us." he said licking his lollipop

"So you know how we got here?" Jiro questioned.

"That I don't know, you guys were only logged in as an anomaly any further information was either not there or locked down under extreme scrutiny. But if you could tell me that would be great." child emperor said with a cheery smile.

"We…can't" Mina said solemnly, rubbing her shoulder.

"Yeah, sorry they made us swear that we keep it secret from everyone." jiro added

"Figured, well today, you will be doing combat training against some bots to gather more data and calibrations for your equipment. I tried to implement some of the suggestions you mentioned the other day in the designs. " the child emperor said, turning to look at the equipment table.

"OOOh, REALLY!?" Mina said in shock as she put on the gloves in her hand once more, instead of being complete black metal gloves, they were now fingerless with a similar color scheme to her jacket, with metal caps on each knuckle of her finger.

"OMG!I'm in love!" she said enthusiastically as she turned the gloves in her hands spectating how they look and feel.

Jiro stepped up next to her and took her, two bracelets and putting them on,watching them as they snapped towards her sonic amplifiers again, she then took the new object which appeared to be two bands, that once attached extended to leg bracers that connected to her leg amplifiers and back upwards to the arm amplifiers that were over her jacket.

"Oh? You asked for something new?" Mina was intrigued by her friend's new accessory.

"Yeah, I wanted a better way for me to transfer from using my upper amplifiers to the bottom one without having to remove my earplugs." Jiro replied.

"Yes, I managed to comply with that request. There is a switch beneath both of your forearms that will tell you which firing mode is active at a time, there is a blue, yellow, and red indicator on top which will tell you which one you switched to. Blue is for the arms, yellow is for the boots, and red is for both. Keep in mind that each side operates separately." Jiro nodded her head in understanding.

"What improvements did you get?" jiro asked mina

"Well, nothing major like you, just some cosmetic upgrades and the ability to use my regular moves again." upon seeing the confused look mina elaborated.

" Well, before I couldn't use anything but those high powered shots from before, now I can. Right?" she asks, turning her attention to the hero behind her friend.

"Correct. You can still use your normal moves and the gloves still keep a similar functionality as before but the acid is just stored in the metal containers above the knuckles, they deliver the high pressurized shots and can double as physical enhancement of your punches. To use the pressurized shots just deploy them by sliding them above your fingers and point while shouting the finger name. Be warned they contain less than the full gloves like before so you may need to reload more often than before."

"Ugh…finger name's?" Mina said confusingly, rubbing the back of her head. Rolling his eyes, the hero answered her question. While raising a finger for the name.

"Pinky, Ring, Middle, Index, and Thumb. You got it?"

"Yeah, it's just not everyday you use those words I remember now." mina said

With everything said and done the two were asked to go into the prop city street and wait for his signal for them to begin, their goal was to defeat all the enemies in the trial. They both started stretching getting ready to begin. Suddenly a giant warning sound started to resound around the city, which they guessed was the signal for them to begin. Jiro immediately set her jack towards the nearest wall, she heard the whirling and crunching of machinery, she guessed they were around 4 meters away, just around the corner.

She revealed the information to mina and they devised a plan to jump out and surprise the robots, they launched their attack simultaneously jumping out, mina was first to attack using the pressurized shots from her middle and index finger hitting two robots that were shaped like overgrown bees, Jiro opted to attack the ground units a mixture of animal and humanoid like robots charging forth she tried out her heartbeat distortion attack shaking the ground rapidly and throwing up multiple robots in the air from the rising ground, mina and her then used them as target practice using both of their longe range maneuvers , jiro heartbeat surround evolved to form a more narrow sound wave path that could pierce targets, quickly cleaning up the remaining robots the two continue on with the trial, sometimes setting up traps with mina's acid with maximum viscosity , while jiro used her sound boom to knock them all offline.

Another notable moment of the trial was when mina used all the pressure shots in her glove and completely sliced a building in half causing both of them to run away from the oncoming debris, Jiro quickly learned that she could artificially jump higher using her arm amplifiers along with the upgraded Heartbeat Surround pointed straight at the ground which saved them from the predicament luckily, having mina express her apologies multiple times as the trial concluded. As they both went back towards the starting area , they had confident smiles on their faces and expressed the same sentiment to the child hero.

"We love these things ." they said in almost unison. Before mina started to go the extra mile and pick up the child hero but was stopped by his robot arms from his bag.

Suck it up: Tatsumaki, Uraraka

Uraraka was still training with tatsumaki dodging rocks being thrown at her, while returning fire with her own but all that ended up accomplishing was for tatsumaki to send it back at her even faster. Originally to counter this maneuver she would release her hold on the rocks that she threw once she realized they were coming back towards her, slightly throwing off their aim and giving her more room to dodge. Tatsumaki caught on quickly to that however and started to maintain her power on the rocks making them retain their course even after she released her powers on them, sometimes even increasing their velocity even more to keep her on her toes.

She dodged and threw the crushed rock around, her stomach flipping with every movement or step. She struggled to keep her balance dealing with the nausea and occasionally repressing the feeling of barf coming up her throat. Tastumaki wasn't totally heartless in her training every time she would stumble or not be able to dodge in time she would suddenly advert the direction of the rocks so they didn't fully connect against her, mostly grazing her costume or skin, other times she would just slow the rock down so the blow while heavy like a punch to the face it wouldn't leave the girl concussed, she did much more of the latter than former uraraka noted. She wasn't going to be too lenient on her and she wasn't afraid to inflict damage on her either.

She was just going through the cycle of attack and evading again but as she went to dodge she wasn't keeping a proper track of her surroundings and tripped over some spare rubble around her. The fall caused her nausea to be even worse, she managed to hold the bile back and get on all fours still attempting to hold back the bile in her mouth while still trying to get out of the way of the incoming rocks. She wasn't fast enough while most of the rocks were angled away from her one slow rock hit her directly in the side.

The momentum was enough to flip her onto her side and the area hit caused her to gasp and spew all the contents she was trying to repress. Thankfully tatsumaki powers were highly versatile; she was able to essentially take all the bile that would have ended up on her face and hair as she was flung on her back instead just disappeared as it left her mouth, she was so precise in fact that she didn't even have the bad breath that came with puking, which saved her time on brining breath mints and mouthwash along with her for training.

The minor comfort of that fact contrasted with the pain and soreness that came to her ribs from the blow she just received. Clutching at the area as she looked up into the sky, that now contained the heroin herself, sneering down at her.

"In battle you should always keep an eye on your surroundings! Especially someone like you, floaty girl!" she yelled down at uraraka.

" easy for you to say" uraraka mumbled under her breath.

"What was That!?" tatsumaki yelled, picking up some nearby rocks and raising them threateningly at the girl on the ground.

" N-Nothing!, nothing!" she said panicking, raising her hand and trying to stand, only agitating the injury she just had causing her to just lay back down. Instead focusing on her breathing and resting somewhat for their next steps. She suddenly found herself glowing green and lifting off and away.

"Where are we going?" she asked as she was flying through the air with tatsumaki, the heroin turned around, in a relaxed pose.

"Training is one thing, but you need actual combat experience fighting real monsters. Besides, I'm getting bored anyways just throwing rocks around." tatsumaki said with a sly smile turning back around and beginning to fly faster. The two heroines touched down in the park of City-L the alarms were already blaring of multiple monster attacks. One of threat level demon and 2 of threat level wolf and one threat level tiger.

"I'll take care of the demon, you deal with the small fry."Tatsumaki said as she flew away.

towards the direction of large billowing smoke in the distance, she was surprised that she would just leave her there alone by herself, she then yelped as the heavy rocks from their training landed next to her. She thought about where she would find these "small fry" she was talking about. Only to hear some screaming coming from behind her, she turned around to find the source of the scream and found where it came from, just to be shocked by the sight of a man with the upper body of a fish, closing in on a woman and child.

she immediately used the rocks next to her and threw one at the man, successfully landing the attack which knocked the attacker off his feet into the wall, uraraka immediately went to check if the woman and chilled were ok and after thanking her they ran away. The fish-man shook itself off from it's impact and glared at uraraka, it made some sort of sound but it was unrecognizable to her, it than charged at her directly, she tried to throw more rocks at the man, it managed to dodge 2 of them but was caught by two others in the chest and face, uraraka than released her quirk on the two that connected and the rocks inflicted more damage on the man as they fell on him and bounced off towards the ground, the maneuver seemed to have knocked the creature out. She went over and smiled at herself as this was the first villain she beat by herself.

A flicker from the corner of her eye caught her attention, quickly jumping away from the fish man as another villain came in and charged her. This one was more humanoid than the other but his arms were like two swordfish noses, his body was all blue and was covered in scales. He charged at her with a battle cry, uraraka used her last two rocks to try and stop his charge but he knocked both to the side barely inconvenienced.

he tried to stab her with one sword and relying on her gun head martial arts, she sidestepped the blade while drawing closer to the fish man. Tagging him with her quirk and tripping him sending him spiraling through the air, he quickly recovered and stab his hands into the ground to launch back at her, uraraka ducked under the attack and used all her strength to launch the villain in the air, leaving him constantly going upwards but his momentum was suddenly stopped by something shooting through the air to catch him and land back on the ground.

The new arrival stepped up to face her; he was fully humanoid, and bulky with fins coming off his legs and head, and one of its arms was that of a crab claw.

"So you're the one that's been giving my brothers a hard time huh?" the fishman said

"Who are you guy's and why are you attacking people?" Uraraka asked.

"Us? We are the future, human and seafolk combined to create the new rulers of the earth. We call ourselves the sea-man. I will be the leader, kraken" the creature said, brandishing it's claw towards uraraka, who would have found their group name humorous but this was no time for games.

"Join us, all you have to do is eat the remains of the seafolk and you too will take on the next evolution of life. Refuse and you will die like the rest."

Uraraka was steadily backing up as kraken approached her, trying to get towards her supply of rocks she left in the park. Spotting the obvious ploy kraken responded immediately.

"So be it then."

A beam of water shot out of his mouth which uraraka rolled out of the way, she began to sprint towards the area with the rocks and using her quirk on the 8 heavy objects and began to turn around again, she recoiled slightly as kraken was already in her face and swinging his crab claw at her she raised one rock in front of her to mitigate some of the damage but the strike still connected against her cheek shattering the rock in the process and sending her flying back, she quickly used her ability on herself and a intense pang of nause hit her at once but she remained focus, rolling her body to get her feet to brace against the parked car she landed against the door and stopped releasing herself and dodging to the left as another burst of water came at her, it hit the car and pushed it through to the other side of the street crashing into the wall of a nearby store.

Kraken quickly closed the distance between the two and swung down hard with his crab arm , only missing barely as she stepped into the swipe attempting the same maneuver as before but kraken caught her hand that was reaching to touch him and swung her around before throwing her away, her back hitting a telephone pole and sending a shock up her spine. Kraken began laughing.

"don't you see how futile it is to face me." he said triumphantly

Uraraka, not giving up, stood once more and threw all of the rocks in her possession at kraken, who only responded with another burst of water from his mouth completely destroying the rocks entirely, forcing Uraraka to jump out of the way again. He was on her in that instant before she could recover he kicked her in the stomach, sending her rolling, she turned the role into a crouching position but was shocked to see that kraken was already above her about to bring his claw down but was confused when she realized he wasn't looking at her anymore but above turning her head she saw none other than tatsumaki.

"Well I guess that's your limit huh?" She mumbled under her breath as she was mostly watching uraraka fight the entire time, easily killing the demon monster in 1 second and returning to spectate the young girl .

"You've done enough.'' Tatsumaki said to uraraka as she snapped her fingers and all uraraka saw was a swirling vial of blood then nothing of the being that was kraken, who was standing before her moments prior. She mentally lapsed for a moment and stood up looking for where he went or signs of the other 2 brothers as well, only to see nothing. Her mind thought back on tatsumaki powers and what she can do with them but that's impossible right? She wouldn't.

"Hey, are you spacing out again? What did I tell you about being mindful of your surroundings? Hey! Are you listening?" the girl nagged as she hovered in front of uraraka.

"What?...what? Did you do to them?" Uraraka's voice was steady, solemn.

"They're dead of course. Why would you ask such a -" her sentence was cut short as she looked at the girl who seemed shocked by the information and got agitated.

"Oh, no don't tell me. You don't like killing? That's literally all there is to being a hero, we protect the weak by getting rid of the pests that seek to hurt them. If you can't handle that you should really try out another profession." she said simply. Uraraka was shocked to hear so little sympathy come from the hero like she didn't care that she just extinguished a life forever without a second thought and with such ease. She would want to argue or debate but just two days with her tells her that it would go nowhere fast.

"Ok" was all she said stoically. Tatsumaki only rolled her eyes in response and carried uraraka back to their training area. The girl was silent the entire time on the journey as she watched the city below her.

The Scandal: Sweet mask, Aoyama

Aoyama was currently back in the gym with Sweet mask, he was teaching him different techniques on how to punch and kick, lucky not on him but on a punching bag instead. Aoyama made note that the moves he was teaching him were all fierce strikes that would require him to throw his entire body weight into the blow, Increasing the damage the receiver would be dealt. The leg strikes he tried to teach him were even more unnerving, stating to strike the opponent in the ligaments that would be most likely to cripple them or at the very least throw them off balance.

He was forced to do countless reps of the same strike over and over again until sweet mask deemed the strike sufficient, being not being used to fighting hand to hand aoyama constantly struggled to live up to sweet mask expectations making strike the punching bag numerous times even as his hands began to blister or perform kicks until his legs began to clamp up. Even when sweet mask had to step out to go to one of his many appointments for his numerous talents he would constantly keep an eye on him with the camera's in the room, if he tried to slack off even once, he would personally give aoyama a live demonstration of the technique the target being himself instead of the punching bag.

The blow was extremely painful and flung him back into the ropes, but even after the blow, sweet mask didn't give him much time to rest, hauling him to his feet and demanding that he continue even more with his repetitions.

Part of him was confused on why sweet mask .would have him even learn hand to hand techniques when his quirk was primarily based on range, he was only told that this was necessary for him to survive, he also remembered the other day, how he said that he wouldn't have the luxury of always staying at range, even his "counter" to that was only a half measure. He didn't know how to properly use his naval saber and he rarely trained with it, so this training could prove beneficial just in case.

His repetitions were stopped briefly opening of the door, multiple people began to come in, lifting large rectangular objects after taking the packaging off he realized that they were mirrors, they began to put the large mirrors up scattered about the room, somewhere full body sized, others were chest tall and every size in between.

He suddenly received a text on his phone from none other than his teacher that just read.

"Who told you that you can stop?" The text frightened him. He almost threw his phone back into the seat and went back towards the punching bag, keeping at it as the people around set up the multitude of mirrors. The workers all left the room and around 45 minutes later sweet mask entered the room.

"The ring." was all he said seriously as he walked in putting down his jacket. Aoyama only compiled and made his way towards the ring and bracing himself for what was about to come.

He suddenly felt his right shoulder burst in pain flinging him from the center of the ring slamming into the corner. He opened his eyes to see his shoulder plate have a big dent in it, his whole right arm felt numb.

"Come on, stand up we don't have all day. I have another meeting in a couple hours and I need to prepare." sweet mask said casually pointing to the spot he wanted to stand.

Aoyama just compiled starting over to the place designated facing the hero waiting to be addressed. Testing his arm to see the extent of the damage.

"I have been thinking of your ability, you call it a laser does that mean it has similar properties?" he inquired looking at his reflection in the mirror.

"Um.. I don't know. I know that it holds some light properties because one of my classmates can bend light and she was able to redirect it." Aoyama replied nervously.

"Good enough, I want you to fire your quirk at that mirror in front of us." not even questioning the hero he did as he was told and fired his navel laser at the object and the mirror was completely destroyed and shattered to the ground. He immediately felt a pain on the back of his head.

"Idiot, not at full power." sweet mask said condescendingly.

Simply nodding his head, he aimed at another mirror and, understanding of what the hero was getting at, shot an extremely low powered beam at it and it successfully reflected off and hit somewhere behind him.

"Good, good. It was just as I thought, if you will be able to master using your ability like this then the telegraph of your hips will no longer be an issue." sweet mask said in thought.

Aoyama was at a loss for words, this does open up plenty of opportunities to him and allows him to change the direction of his beam if necessary.

"Well?" sweet mask said expectantly, leaving the young hero confused.

"Don't you have something you want to say to me?" swett mask asked expectantly, aoyama was confused for some seconds more until it dawned on him.

"'Thank you , sweet mask. I wouldn't have thought of something like this myself." Aoyama said, bowing his head.

"You're right about that, I hate seeing talent wasted and if you are going to be seen next to me, I would prefer it if you have at least some skill. Now from now on you will also add reflections to your training reps, for every mirror you break, punishment will be awarded. Understand?" Aoyama gulped and nodded his head in understanding.

"Now, I want you to be able to reflect your laser off of all the mirrors in this room, the last reflection aiming towards yourself. understood ?" Aoyama was shocked at what he asked of him was practically impossible to do, the angle and trajectory would prove so much to account for… the 9 mirrors in this place, he counted. But he didn't voice any of his complaints, only nodding his head in confirmation.

So he tried, he first wanted to at least accomplish reflecting his laser off two mirrors before worrying about anything else, over nurmourse times of trial and error he finally manage to reflect his laser off one mirror to the other, he wanted to make sure he got the angle correct and fired multiple more lasers in that same direction figuring out how much room he had to work with to reflect towards the next mirror, it had taken him an 1 hour to accomplish this much and sweet mask had came and went a few times between them.

He was currently watching as he was trying to narrow down hitting the third mirror but before he could, someone had bursted into the room, he held a pad in his hands and handed it to sweet mask, judging by the slight glare on his face , he assumed the news to be bad. He thanked the gentlemen for showing him this and dismissed him.

Now that he was alone he just sat angrily mumbling something under his breath as he continued to look at the pad in his hands. He was so engrossed that he didn't even realize that Aoyama had closed in and looked at what was on the pad, it was a police report of something that happened during the day. The title read Hero association using monsters!? As he scanned the details he skipped over the text as he couldn't read much from his angle but there was a picture attached that showed a girl and guy in tank tops , next to… he gasped, which finally shook sweet mask from his musings.

"Who told you that you could stop?" he sneered but Aoyama ignored him.

"I..that man is my friend, he's not a monster!" Aoyama exclaimed, he suddenly was hoisted in the air by sweet mask.

"Explain." he said with venom

"Remember when I said that my classmates all had power and abilities? Some of them manifested as mutations changing how they looked on the outside. That right there in the picture is shoji, he can create different appendages with his dupli arms." he said, holding his hands in front of his face. Until he suddenly dropped back down, he looked at sweet mask which was face palming while looking upwards. Releasing a breath he turned to face the teen.

"And the S-class were assigned them, explaining why he's with the tank tops. Does one of them have a bird head and the other is completely invisible?"

"Yes, Tokoyami and Toru."

"Ok, so those pictures were true. Alright, I Just need to get ahead of this." thinking for 30 seconds he turned to the young hero.

"Since your friends were assigned to the S-class, is it safe to assume that one of them works under king?" Aoyama nodded his head in reply.

"Good, King is a tricky person to get a hold off, so I need you to persuade whoever that is under him to get King to agree to an interview, sometime next month. I need time to get a story straight and explain you all. Make sure he agrees." he said menacingly, his veins bulging from his neck, symbolizing his agitation.

"Y..ye..yes sir!" Aoyama was so frightened that he saluted the hero. which in return only received a strange look.

"I will assume that was a swear or promise gesture either way, your training is not done, get back to it." He pointed back to the center of the ring and Aoyama quickly obliged, hopefully thinking that Mineta could get king to agree as quickly as possible.

Fun and Games: King, Mineta

He was lost and scattered from his partner, mineta was alone fighting his way through a horde of monsters and other abominations that blocked his route. He bounded from place to place as fast he could, The place seemed to be an unending maze. He started scavenging weapons from the fallen around him gathering a sword and shield that he would use to defend himself from the inevitable creatures that were hell bound in chasing him to the ends of the earth, ehe turned an abandon street corner just to run face first into a skeleton creature it was a massive creature over 4 meters tall with with metal armor covering most of its body besides its face, he tried to fight it swimming his sword at the creature, the creature didn't even flinch letting the blade bounce harmlessly off his armor.

it laughed at his futile attempt but backed away regardless it launched wave of minions at him instead a bunch of human-like skeletons began to rise from the ground sporting swords and shields, some even sporting old school weapons like flintlocks and blunderbusses that were used back in the days of pirates.

The small skeleton army began to approach his position, forcing him back as he attempted to defend and parry strikes from the skeletons that rushed him with blades, he was not having much luck suffering small cuts every now and then as the onslaught continued. He used his balls to create some space sticking his targets in place and giving him some space to maneuver but as he backed up to asses his options he was under fire by the range units, mostly missing do to him bounding around the area, he attempted to throw some balls at them to incapacitate but most of his attacks missed their mark.

The big guy came back , equipping what appeared to be a giant crossbow from across his back and loading it with a arrow, mineta had found some cover behind a large rock from the skeletons range units but as he looked from around his cover and saw the large arrow making its way towards him he decided. He had to jump out of the way meanwhile the arrow completely destroyed the rock he was hiding behind.

He was now exposed to the skeletons range units , they immediately fired upon him, him being in the open left his options minimal but to minimize his size as small as possible a lot of the shots missed but enough landed to almost cripple him, he was now struggling to move as the giant creature had reloaded his crossbow and began to take aim again, he saw his life flash before his eyes, everyone that would miss him,all the girls he hadn't got a chance to meet, he swore that he could hear his own heart beat over all the noise that surrounded him but he realized something, what he was hearing it wasn't his heart beat but a battle cry and to him it was an angel sent by the gods. As the beating grew louder the boss took aim at him and shot his oversized crossbow. It would have been dead on target if it wasn't for one man.

A man dropped from the sky causing dust to spray into the air from where he landed, the arrow destined for him was reflected as he saw it strike the Big guy instead.

The man was king and his engine was roaring. He couldn't even see wha happened as he dispatched the small army of 30 skeletons in the complete blink of an eye. Their bones were scattered to the wind as he passed through them with such ease, he approached the boss directly. The boss swung at him with his a dagger as but King was so fast that he evaded the blow and stuck with his fist completely pushing the boss back, he followed with a flip kick to the jaw. The big guy staggered back and summoned more skeletons and retreated but King didn't give it the chance, moving at incredible speed he destroyed the skeletons before they had a chance to completely rise from the ground. Reaching the boss in a split second and driving an uppercut so strong that it completely bisected the big guy in half.

The screen then darkened stating victory on the screen as the boss dropped loot from its corpse.

"Wow, king, you're really good at this game. Do you play a lot?" mineta asked curiously

"Yeah..uh, you could say something like that." king replied sheepishly not wanting to reveal how much time he spent on this game.

" Still I don't know how I feel about just being bait all the time, why can't we go back and just fight enemies on my level instead?"

"No, no, no it's fine, You need to do at least some damage to the enemies so that you can get some of the exp from when I defeat them, just look at how many levels you got from this you grew 15 levels from just one mission." king argued. Mineta couldn't argue that this way got results very quickly and speaking of results very quickly.

"Aren't you going to go out and fight monsters today?" Mineta asked with anticipation in his voice.

"No, ugh not today." king said hesitantly.

"Aw, why not?" Mineta said disappointed in not being able to see the strongest man in action.

"It's just too much for me, honestly I'm not the best at social interactions really and every time I step outside the house I'm mobbed by fans or met with some crazy monster. It's just tiring after a while. " King said solemnly.

"What!? I would be dying to be in your position besides the crazy monsters part having dedicated fans cheering you on and asking for autographs seems like a dream come true for me, especially if they're some cute ladies if you know what I mean.`` Mineta replied with a wink at the end. King merely rolled his eyes at the kids theartactrics, while being a celebrity did have his perks; they come with a skew of drawbacks that no one likes to mention. Being a public figure is a lot of work, especially if what you're known for is revealed as an exaggerated lie.

"I would be careful what you wish for." king replied simply before grabbing another game and putting it in. This one was a fighting game.

"Wanna practice with me in this? It has a tournament next week actually, you should try joining."

"Why? There's no way I can get good at this game in barely a week of play no matter how good of a teacher you may be at it."

"Even if you're not good with a controller, there is an alternative method to play where you can use your body to control the character." king replied.

"WHAT! No way! That sounds so COOl!" the purple boy said happily.

"Yeah it's good, as long as the machine can read your movements, that is, something too fast or too complex would probably end up breaking it." he said nonchalantly.

"Oh so you're gonna enter using the controller king?" mineta asked

"Yup, no point in moving away from the basics. So you wanna try?" kings said offering the ten a controller.

"Sure." Mineta agreed, accepting the controller.

Deliberations: Class 1A

Just like before the class met up in the common room to discuss the day's events, the discussion was mostly headed by momo this time in place of Iida due to him being gone for the month. Everyone broke off into groups to talk amongst those who they were closest to. Midoriya noticed how uraraka was a bit off recently in the conversation, not wanting to speak about her day with the number 2 heroine much, while everyone else spoke almost freely about their day.

Most discussion revolved around the large group of students that were requested elsewhere, kirishima was the first to answer the question.

"It turns out demon cyborg had a virtual machine full of monsters he wanted our teachers to fight, and said something about collecting battle data for something."

"He wanted to use the data to make himself stronger." tokoyami completed

"Right! There was this big beetle thing that beat almost everyone besides two of them!" Toru exclaimed excitedly. Tokoyami nodded.

"Whatever it was, it was indeed strong me and bakugo could only last a few seconds at best. Todoroki only did slightly better, lasting around a minute and half, "Tokoyami said, remembering the beast from earlier that day. Making almost everyone in the class turn and look at only bakugo in surprise, Todoroki not being in the common room at the time having left early after ensuring that he was alright. Their stares only served to aggravate him as he made a sharp reply.

"Don't any of you extra's look down on me, demon cyborg said that anyone below that of A-class would be a waste of time to try, you guys probably wouldn't even last a second, just get on to the actual interesting information." he remarked, making the class turn back to kirishima when he didn't elaborate further.

"OH! Right! Get this, demon cyborg somehow got into todoroki and bakugo minds! the machine had data on all might, the nomu's , and Endeavor!" This revelation shocked the class.

"I hope he had both of your approval for such a thing to happen." Momo remarked softly.

"He didn't! The megaman ripoff, was the one that knocked us out the other day in fact. He stole the data while we were unconscious." bakguo replied angrily, shocking the class even more and causing murmurs to spread through the room of how awful of him for him to do such a thing.

"WHAT!" mina shouted

"We can't just let him get away with doing that; there must be some rules or laws that he must have broken to do that to you both." momo said standing up

"Cool your jets, ponytail. If I have a problem I'll handle it myself, You got that?" he remarked coldly. Making her sit back down.

"Well, what about you tsu, I heard from the rest that you were taken somewhere by yourself. What did they have you do?" Toru asked the girl.

"They…they had me talk to one of their captive monsters." gaining the attention of the class almost immediately, she explained what they told her about monsterization in people here and how they wanted to see if she could calm him down to cooperate with their efforts to re-introduce him back into society, since she has similar abilities to him.

"I don't know if I got through to him or not but I did save his life by not calling for what was sure to be an execution squad in for help when he attacked me. Hopefully he listened. Ribbit"

The amount of information was hard to take in for a lot of the class, humans that would transform if they simply believed in something strong enough? This world has something crazier and crazier each day. Midoriya noticed that upon hearing Tsu story uraraka's body seems to deflate even more, he did too and was curious if it was for the same reason so he tested his hypothesis.

"Uraraka, did you have an encounter with monsters today?" midoriya asked, shocking the girl back to the conversation at hand with everyone looking at her.

"Yeah, I did….." she said absently replaying the events in her mind.

"Did your hero kill the monster?" Midoriya continued looking at her worriedly.

"Monsters, there were three of them, brothers." she replied softly

"The same thing happened with me and Bang on our first encounter." causing the girl to look towards midoriya as he understood what she was going through.

"Me as well, during patrol I encountered a monster that I defeated but was killed by the tank tops, Iida was correct the heroes here have no problem with killing their problems away." shoji added on. The atmosphere became quiet as they let that fact finally sink in and there was a hesitancy for more conversation to start. Midoriya stood up to address the class.

"We may not be able to change them but that doesn't mean we need to change ourselves, killing is not an option for us and going off of what asui just said about the association they don't mind capturing monsters instead of killing them and that is what we will do. That's what the word hero means to us, not only saving citizens, but also saving villains from themselves."

Midoriya said the last part and looked at uraraka, which bettered her mood, significantly nodding in his direction while everyone began to clap their hands and shout their agreement. With that out of the way the mood returned as others mentioned there day, lightening the mood somewhat before everyone set out to go to bed.

Aoyama held mineta back for a moment to talk to him privately, garnering suspicion from the small teen as the two never really interacted before or have anything in common from the few conversations he overheard involving him.

"Your learning under mr. King correct?" aoyama started

"Right, what about it?" did he want some sort of autograph or was he jealous, mineta wondered.

" I'm training under sweet mask and he was wondering if you could manage to get to agree to an interview sometime next month."

Mineta sat and thought about it, he remembered what the magazine's said about King and what he said about himself and became skeptical.

"I don't think, king wants to do interviews anytime soon, he's kind of a shut-in." Mineta replied, rubbing the back of his head. But he stepped back at the seriousness of Aoyama's reply.

"You must convince him, it is of the utmost importance that he agrees to the interview." he began to scroll on his phone as mineta replied.

"What do you mean? What's so important about a random interview?"

"This." he said, showing him his phone from the police report from earlier on in the day. Mineta read it and saw the picture and it started to dawn on him.

"They think some of us are monsters just because we look different and you heard of what they do to monsters in this world. Shoji was shot at by the police, with sweet mask and kings help. We can hopefully prevent other incidents from happening before something really does happen." he said seriously towards his small friend who shook a little from the intense glare.

"S…sure I'll do what I can. Leave it to me." Mineta said, retaining his self control.

" please, make sure you do." Aoyama and Mineta left the common area towards their rooms.

As the class was walking out of the common area momo stopped midoriya before they could get towards the hallway to the dorms, uraraka almost stopped along with them but after a look from midoriya decided to keep going on with the others.

"That was a great speech back there midoriya and I agree with it whole heartily but I wanted to talk to you about Todoroki."

" Yeah, I'm worried about him too. I was going to check up on him now actually."

"Actually I wanted to do so myself. You already went above and beyond with that speech, but as acting class president I want to do my best for them as well."

She said with conviction, Midoriya glanced at her determined face and decided to honor her request, showing her his room and wishing her luck as he went into his door. Momo began to get some jitters as she approached his door but steeled herself to make sure her classmate was ok, she knocked on the door and waited. No response. She knocked again and nothing, she started to mentally smack herself of course he was asleep, he was probably tired from the day's events and she was being a pe-

"Yaoyorozu?" Todoroki's voice drew her out of her thoughts. She quickly turned to face him, her face flushing somewhat.

"Todoroki, I had thought you went towards your room."

"I just went to clear my head." he said solemnly.

"Do you want to talk about it? I heard what the demon cyborg did to you and bakugo." Todoroki hesitated a moment, considering his options before gesturing for her to follow him, she took some time as she went to the kitchen to make some tea. The spot Todoroki chose to sit by was a window that had a view of the lake under the city. She laid out the tea in front of Todoroki and herself as she sat down. Brining a tiny smirk to his face.

"You really do love your tea don't you?" todoroki joked.

" Yes, I find tea can be very helpful to alleviate stress." Momo answered seriously. They both took a sip of the tea as momo waited for Todoroki to speak up.

"I'm not mad about what the demon cyborg did, well not entirely it was highly immoral but that's nothing new to me. He had a somewhat tangible reason for doing so however. It would seem that the S-class were pressured into taking us if they didn't want to."

"I see, he just wanted the best information possible without any chances of false hood. But if you're not too angered about that then what is troubling you?" she asks sincerely. Todoroki let out a deep breath as he started.

"It was when he mentioned my father, It reminded me of what we left back in our world in such a crucial moment, my father is under such scrutiny for da-toya, but if the news catch whiff of him losing me let alone our entire class disappearing, it would put even more pressure on him and cause more distrust of the hero's that remain active."

Momo let him speak about his worries, but she had absolutely nothing she could say to comfort him. She had completely got lost in all the happenings of this world before worrying about their own. She was shaking as she pictured the thoughts of her parents and what they're going through with her absence. Did they think she was dead?, what-if they can't go back and stay here forever?.. No, she couldn't think that she had to be more hopeful that things will turn out ok. Focusing on the negative will only hurt them in the long term and she needed to tell him that.

Taking her silence as a sign to continue he went on.

"That's why I decide if I ever encounter that being again, I'll try and get us back no matter the cost." he said with sincerity. This immediately snapped momo from her thoughts as she reached out, put a hand on top of todoroki and squeezed lightly.

"Don't say that, that being's gifts are nothing but trouble, he may give you what you want but it will be at yours and relatively our expense, if we can return I would like for all of us to return together." she said with a saddened smile.

"How do you know we will be able to go back home?" todoroki questioningly

"I…don't, but I have faith that we can come up with something, we just need to wait and I'm sure an opportunity will come."

"And if one never comes? "

" Then we will see when we get there, everyone wants to go back home but getting home without everyone would only be a shallow victory.

Just have some patience and don't do anything rash until we truly exhausted all other options. We need to take care of each other while we're here." she said, meeting his eyes as she spoke, Todoroki gave her a smile in return.

"You're right, we should deal with what's in front of us first and do anything we can to keep each other safe until we can go back." she smiled happily as she managed to brighten his mood then flushed as she still held her hand on top of his, which she quickly removed, her face having a slight blush to it.

"A..anyway, I think it would be best if we go get some rest, who knows what we're going to have to deal with tomorrow." she said quickly standing and taking the dishes away, todoroki helped her clean them and then both teens left to go to bed. Todoroki thanked her for the tea and they talked a little more before both heading into their respective rooms.
