Reality Viewing: Naruto the Quirky Villain

-Chapter 17-

-Last Time-

"Fiiiine… party pooper…" She grumbled, losing her faux pout for a more genuine one as she wiggled deeper into her boyfriend's lap.

"Okay, I have to ask, how many times have you lost your body and why?" Momo asked in a mix of morbid curiosity and to get her mind off the last few minutes.

And like that Setsuna's mood perked right back up as she giggled nostalgically. "Oh well the first time was when we were in middle school and…"

-And Now-

"…So we'd gotten everything ready and all we had to do was wait, right? But we forgot to consider traffic and so she didn't get home till much later than we expected." Everyone was listening attentively as Setsuna talked, the bodiless teenager grinning madly with every word.

"We were so determined to get her that we completely forgot about the time limit and kept waiting for hours until she finally got back," Naruto added. "Then when mom got home and opened the hall closet to hang her jacket only for Setsuna's headless body to flop out with 'blood' oozing everywhere, oh boy... that did not go as planned."

"HA! No kidding, we thought she'd scream or something but nope, Mama Red just straight up dropped to the floor in a dead faint. Naturally we totally freaked and rushed to find out if she was okay which is when I finally realized I couldn't move my body, making us freak out even more," The greenette had to pause to take a breath from laughing so hard with her currently teeny tiny lungs. "But our freak out was nothing compared to Mama Reds when she came back too. I swear she sprung back up like she'd been shot out of a cannon, grabbed my body, and was halfway through setting up an emergency room in the kitchen before either of us could blink."

"I'm still trying to figure out where she was keeping that EKG all this time." The whiskered blonde muttered as he scratched his chin in thought.

"I know right, anyway it didn't take her long to figure out what had happened and boy was she NOT amused," Setsuna said, her laughter finally dying away in favor of a grimace that her boyfriend shared.

"I'm guessing you got grounded for awhile, ribbit?" Tsuyu asked rhetorically.

"For three months but that was nothing compared to… Sumakkī-chan." Naruto stated while he and his bodiless girlfriend shivered in fear, the toad quirked blonde idly rubbing his ass as he spoke.

"Who-?"

"It's the sandal she used to spank us," Setsuna cut Momo off with a haunted look in her eyes. "I thought I was lucky because I didn't actually have an ass at the time but no… she made me watch… made me see as she paddled my body's ass raw… so I'd know exactly what I'd have coming once I regrew a new one. It was terrifying."

"…Huh, so I'm guessing that means no spanking fetish for you. Damn." Grumbling under her breath, Midnight fished out a hundred yen from… somewhere and handed it over too Mirko.

"You made bets on what fetishes we might have?" Shoto asked with a quirked brow, only to be met with innocent whistles and avoided looks from the pro-heroes. "That-"

"Hey look, a convenient topic change, ribbit." Before anyone could react, Tsuyu shot her tongue out to hit the play button on the Viewer, starting the projection up.

Kurama - Age: ? (Possibly 15 - 17)

Height: 166 cm

Quirk: Poison-Related (?)

Kurama is a villain that uses mental warfare and baits heroes into doing what he wants them to do, and takes advantage of a Quirk that allows him to defeat enemies by touching them once. Through person experience, he seems able to change the danger level of his poison.

"... Based on how short he is, not that I'm one to judge, and his voice... he could be around my age. He seems to have a deep understanding of the human mind, or at least, he has a talent for analyzing people and figuring them out. He's able to notice small details, and can use those details to form multi-layered battle plans on the fly." Deku spoke to himself as he sat at his desk, writing a new entry into his Hero journal, one of many, this one having a hand drawn picture of Kurama himself in it, in costume of course, with a written description.

Deku compared the entry to the entries to other heroes that Kurama had taken down, and started to compare the physical abilities between Kurama and those heroes. On his computer screen, he was watching a video of Kurama dodging Mirko on repeat, and in another tab, he had the saved video from when Kurama beat Class 1-A a few days previously. He had managed to get All Might to give him a copy of the recording, for the purpose of studying where he had failed and analyzing Kurama some more.

"Wow, Mumbles sure has an eye for detail, if he doesn't make it in the hero field then he should totally try the support field. I'd love to have a chance to pick his brain on some new baby ideas I've had." Mei said as she read over Izuku's notes in intrigue while writing down several of her own.

"Didn't you already do that?" Momo asked with a raised brow, making the pinkette scoff.

"That was a whole seventeen hours ago, I've had like a million new ideas for babies we could make together."

The doorbell rang.

His mother would get it, she was awake and downstairs, so it would make sense that she got to the door first. Anyway, he wasn't expecting anyone to be showing up, so it wasn't like this was going to be for him anyway.

"And que it being for him in three… two… one…" Tsuyu snapped her fingers.

"IZUKU!"

"Saw that one coming, ribbit."

Deku nearly collapsed when his name was shouted, and his mother sounded shocked for some reason. Getting up, he ran out of his room at top speed, and saw his mother was collapsed at the open door, looking at it in shock.

"Hello... I'm sorry to drop by unannounced like this, but I was wondering if you could help me with something Midoriya." Momo spoke to him when she saw him, in her casual clothes that looked to be high fashion, and she even had a small cake box with her. Showing that despite coming unannounced, she hadn't forgotten her manners.

"…Did not see that though… ribbit."

"Oh ho ho~! Now this is getting spicy~." Midnight said in a sing song tone as she rubbed her hands together, causing Momo's face to flush at the obvious implications. Before she could even try to defend herself though, the adult rated heroine clapped a hand over her mouth.

"A... gi-gi-girl is here to visit you."

"A gi-gi-girl?" Deku was like his mother, in a state of shock that a girl from his class was visiting him, at his house like this. Momo just smiled awkwardly when she saw that he seemed to be in a state of shock. "Oh... Yaoyorozu." Deku commented with look of dawning, when he realized it was one of his classmates more heavily.

"Pl-please, come in." Inko got up and gestured for her to come in.

"I was actually wanting to speak with Midoriya about training together, since the other day he showed he was highly intelligent." Momo didn't know if Inko knew about the Kurama attack at the school, since the event had been covered up like the first one was. Nobody wanted to admit to Kurama having broken into the school, let alone the fact he was able to get into the school twice.

"The news would drag something like that out for years no doubt." Shoto muttered while the rest of the room's occupants nodded in agreement.

Deku calmed down.

"Oh, training, I'm free for that. I've already finished my homework... but our Quirks don't seem like a good fit to train together. Your Creation allows you to turn the fats in your body into items depending on your knowledge on their molecular composition, right?" Deku asked her, since her intelligence-type Quirk was an ill-fit for training with his battle-type Quirk, considering he could seriously hurt her just by using his Quirk... and he would hurt himself just as badly as he hurt her.

"Hopefully he manages to figure out a solution for that problem soon, ribbit." Tsuyu mumbled under her breath. Obviously, it'd be hard to pursue a successful career as a hero if their friend couldn't stop hospitalizing himself every time he used his quirk. Izuku had been getting better as of lately, though it had been mostly mitigating the extent of the damage to his fingers.

"Hey Naru, didn't we have a few kids with strength boosting quirks?" Setsuna asked, getting her boyfriend to nod. "Then maybe you could give him a few pointers."

"Maybe."

Momo was a little offput by his knowledge of how her Quirk worked, since he had only seen her use it a little in class and she had never gone into explicit knowledge of it. Still, his analytical abilities when it came to heroes and Quirks was just what she wanted. Momo followed after Deku as they went towards his room.

"Oh-ho, to the bedroom already? Don't forget the condoms~!"

"Please stop…" Momo pleaded, steam flowing from the top of her head as Midnight kept smirking at her salaciously.

"Yeah, knock it off, we can all see that she might dress like a dime store stripper-" "HEY!" "-But she'd probably faint like a little bitch at the first tit grab, assuming broccoli brains didn't faint first." Mirko stated with an eyeroll, ignoring the creation quirked girl's indignant shout.

It dawned on Deku that a girl was going to be visiting his room, and he started to nervously sweat, a fact that Momo ignored.

"Actually, instead of training our bodies, I was figuring that we could train our minds instead. The other day... I found myself lacking, but I want to improve. Your performance was amazing though." Momo explained as he opened the door to his room, his mother leaving them to their business, and Momo was a little weirded out by all of the All Might stuff in the room, there was a ton of it, but she put it to the back of her mind.

Naruto's eyebrow rose all the way up to his hairline at the sheer amount of merchandize that was stuffed into the boy's room. From figures to plushies, posters to bed sheets, there was not one inch that didn't have the number one hero's face plastered on it. "…You know what, not gonna ask."

'A girl is in my room.' Deku thought, before shaking his head. "Bu... *cough, but my plan to taken down Kurama failed. He beat every single part of my plan down, why would you want my help?" Deku asked her, and she saw him gesturing to sit down at the spare chair next to his computer.

She saw his notes on Kurama and several other heroes, as well as videos on his computer were playing images of Kurama against themselves and Mirko.

"You and Bakugo are both highly analytical, but Bakugo is too... unstable of a person for me to work well with. Not to mention, even though your plan failed, you did more than me. All I did that entire fight, was cower in fear, get overcome by self-doubt, and break down crying at the end... Kurama played me for a fool that entire fight."

"She's talking about boom boom boy, right?" Naruto asked Tsuyu, causing the frog girl to nod while Setsuna snickered at the blonde's nickname for the explosive quirked teen.

"Yes and unstable is putting it nicely, ribbit, odds are Bakugo would threaten to blow her up because it'd insinuate that he needs help."

"…And he's in the hero course?"

"We ask ourselves the same thing at least once a week."

Momo had come to terms with the fact that she had been completely humiliated and used during that fight. She had felt odd whenever she thought about Kurama, be it the tightness in her chest, or the warm feelings in the pit of her guts that twisted when she remembered how gently he treated her at the end of the 'spar' that the class lost in.

"Oh ho ho ho~"

"Did I hear what I thought I heard?~"

' On no…' Dread washed over Momo as the adult rated heroine looped an arm around her shoulders to pull her into a hug as she and Setsuna smirked at her knowingly. "Please don-"

""Momo and Kurama~ Sitting in a tree~ K-I-S-S-I-N-G/F-U-C-K-I-N-G!~"" The duo cut her off as they sang together, causing the poor girl to sputter with a blush so deep it was a miracle her face didn't burst into flames.

" Your girlfriend seems weirdly fine about other girls liking you." Shoto whispered to Naruto with a tilted head, getting the whiskered teen to shake his head with a chuckle.

" That's because she knows I'd never act upon it… not unless she got to watch anyway."

" …I not gonna ask."

"Good idea."

' Better her than me.' Meanwhile, Mirko smiled in relief at Midnight finally having another target to tease that wasn't her.

"Well... he is Kurama... Sure, I'll help you train! How are we going to train?" Deku asked as he sat down next to her, and started to clear away his desk. He nearly put up the journal with Kurama's entry open, but Momo stopped him as she placed the cake down on the table. She opened her purse up, and she showed a glass vial of a white liquid. She rolled up her sleeve, and her body glowed a little as a microscope and analytical equipment came out of her body. "Is that...?" Deku was stunned when he saw a vial filled with a dangerous looking substance that they knew too well by this point.

"Well I'll be, how in the hell did she get her hands on that?" Naruto asked what everyone was thinking the moment that vial came into view.

"I did my best to get as much as I could, but it dries up really fast. This was on Ashido's gym uniform, and it's mixed with her acid to keep it from drying up. I've already examined the chemical composition of her acid though." Momo spoke as she looked at the vial. Inside of it was Kurama's poison, nobody had ever been able to gather any of his poison before, because it always dried up before anyone could collect any. By the time the poison faded away and people could move again, it was already out of their system as well.

Nobody had been able to study his poison before now, but thanks to Mina and the copious amounts of poison that had been mixed together with acid, she had enough that she could study it.

"…That explanation made absolutely zero sense." Mirko stated dryly.

"Normally I'd say that's because you're an idiot, but I actually have to agree this time," Midnight reluctantly agreed with the whitette, while insulting her of course, as she scratched her cheek with a raised brow. "Miss Yaoyorozu, would you mind explaining how soaking in literal acid could have possibly preserved the poison long enough to collect a viable sample?"

"Well perhaps its because… no that wouldn't make sense… maybe it was… or it could have been… uh…" grateful for the change of subject, the rich ravenette kept starting to say something only to cut herself off several times, her brow gradually furrowing more and more the further she sunk into her thoughts. Eventually she was reduced to a nearly unintelligible muttering fit as she kept talking to herself.

"I think you're right about Izuku's muttering being infectious." Shoto said to Tsuyu, who croaked softly with a nod of agreement.

Deku held the vial gently, taking it from her and eyeing it with wide eyes.

"How is this training though?" Deku asked her, and she nodded, setting up their work station at his desk.

"I just want to talk with you about Battle Strategy, so that we can hone our minds together, and while talking with you about that, we can try and figure out Kurama's real Quirk. Since we've seen him fight in person... actually fight, we can use this. If we can figure out his Quirk, then no doubt our minds will have been sharpened. Let's use this training session to focus our minds on becoming heroes." Momo was absolutely bubbly as she spoke, a pink aura of girliness and bubbles practically surrounding her. "You're making an odd face."

Deku's face was scrunched up, unable to take her raw bubble-aura and girliness, his insecurities flaring up and nearly putting him into a self-induced coma.

"Her giant tits probably aren't helping either." Mirko stated with a smirk… which quickly fell when she got no reaction from Momo who was still lost in her own little world.

"Am I? Okay then, lets get started... I noticed that when Kurama was countering my battle plans, he seemed to work around my plans." Deku changed the subject away from his face.

"Yes... but when I looked at the recordings myself. I actually found the flaw in your plan, you used your knowledge on watching Kurama on TV to your advantage. You see though, Kurama is used to being chased by heroes who have knowledge on how he fights. Your plan was similar to how many heroes would have gone at Kurama, and he used his experience to counter it." Momo explained away the more basic flaw of his plan. His plan had been amazing and multi-layered, but that was a type of plan that Kurama had experience with both using, and having it used against him.

Deku hummed in thought, and grabbed his journal, writing down what Momo was saying in it, taking notes.

"I see... and Kurama used his ability to play on people's emotions in order to make us do what he wanted us to do. Instead of countering our plans, he put us in positions where instead of beating our plans, he forced us to act like he wanted us to act. Instead of planning, I would compare what he did closer to mind control. He knows how people think, so he acted in a way that would get us to act in a way he could take advantage of." Deku agreed with her, and thinking on what she was saying, he could see in the video where Kurama always seemed to act, and then wait for them to act in return. Instead of pressing the advantage, he turned his defensive skills into an offensive skill, not that he lacked offense either.

"Uhhh… what?"

"In simpler terms he tricks his opponents into acting the way he wants them too rather than going against what they'd actually should do," Mei summed up for Mirko while working on a new immobilization grenade. "It's quite ingenious really, in doing so he wins before the fight even begins and-"

"Forget I asked." The whitette cut in dully.

Momo was still analyzing the poison, and drawing a sketch of what it looked like under the microscope, ignoring the acid that was slightly mixed into it. His poison was highly acid resistant, meaning it had a strongly held-together molecular structure.

"Ah, so that's how she got a sample, talk about convenient." Midnight said with a shake oof her head.

"Yes, Kurama's ability to create intricate battle plans is amazing, but what is more amazing is his advanced knowledge on how people think and feel. When he would go against Kaminari, he played on my fear and he figured that I would create a strategy for why Kaminari's Quirk would hurt all of us... instead of making an actual strategy... his strategy was to emotionally manipulate us into acting how he wanted us to." Momo explained as she glanced at Deku.

When battling Kurama, keep a cool head, don't allow your emotions to get the better of you. Take into account that he could be playing with your head, to make you act a certain way.

Setsuna just could help but snort in amusement at that, almost toppling over on her boyfriend's lap if he hadn't grabbed the top of her head. "Good luck with that, the only people I've ever seen being able to stop Naruto from fucking with their heads is Mama Red and his pervy godfather."

"Not gonna include yourself on that list?" Shoto asked, making the bodiless greenette snort again.

"I wish, I might not fall for his games as easily anymore but this guy can still play me like a fiddle when he wants too."

"For a poison Quirk, his mind is more dangerous than that. How would we use this in combat though?" Deku asked Momo as she lifted her head up and put a hand to her chin in thought.

She looked at what he wrote again.

"Instead of keeping a cool head... I would fake, when battling an enemy who manipulates emotions, fake your emotions. If you're feeling angry, act like you're excited. That way, when the enemy tries to manipulate you, you can take them by surprise by not acting how they expect." Momo spoke as an in general rule, instead of just fighting with Kurama. This wasn't just training about how to fight Kurama after all, this was training to improve their minds, and how to deal with other villains by using Kurama as a focus of their training.

By observing the battle that they lost at, and seeing where they could improve with their battle plans, they could create better plans in the future.

"Kacchan was the first one to get taken down, because he attacked Kurama in anger, as revenge for the crossdressing thing... but if he had only acted angry, and kept a secretly cool head... maybe he could have acted in a way that Kurama hadn't been expecting."

"So fake him out, I could totally do that." Mirko said confidently as she cracked her knuckles-

"Yeah… no, you can't."

Before immediately glaring at Naruto when the blonde shot down her claim. "The fuck you say?"

Not even flinching under the angry bunny's wrath, the toad teen just stared back at her with a knowing smirk. "Can you honestly tell me with a straight face that you could face me down and not only keep your emotions in check but also fake it long enough to dupe me?"

…

…

"Fuck you."

"Only if Setsuna agrees."

"I… what?"

"Might be fun, we'll discuss it later." Nobody could tell if Setsuna was joking or not…

Deku analyzed the beginning of the battle again. "... by the way... how are you doing after Kurama messed with your head?" Deku asked her in concern.

She had been really messed up during the battle.

Out of everyone in the class, she and Mineta had been the only ones to completely freeze in fear. She had been frozen in fear the second Kurama had outsmarted the original take down plan.

"Sorry about that, may not have been the real me but still… he did get a bit too carried away." Naruto said softly Momo, who waved the apology off.

"Don't worry about it, at least you-I mean he, he owned up to it and helped fix it." A tiny smile found its way onto the creation quirked heroine in training's lips at the digital version of the whiskered blonde's words of encouragement passed through her head again.

...

"... I would say no... but I'm going to be honest... Kurama really helped me. Despite being a villain, he's an extremely respectable person. He took time he could have used to escape, and helped me work through my fear. During that fight, nobody was a bigger failure than I was. I let everyone down, due to my inability to believe in myself. Thanks to some of the kindest words I have ever heard though, I'm going to use my failure, and use it to inspire the day I win. I'm a proud failure." Momo spoke with a wide smile, her cheeks dusting a little pink when she spoke and remembered that tender moment. Despite being a villain, if she said that she wasn't fond of what Kurama did for her, she would be lying.

"First comes love~"

"Then comes marriage~"

""Then comes the babies in the baby carriage~""

And just like that Momo was back to melting from sheer embarrassment. Her whole head turned a bright cherry red when Midnight, Setsuna, and surprisingly even Mei this time broke out into song again.

"I get what you mean... Kurama doesn't seem evil or even bad... more than his Quirk, I want to understand his motivations. What he does is mostly harmless... but..."

"But?" Momo asked with a curious glance at him.

"But, we can use that... Kurama is a villain we can fight over and over again, without fear of dying. We can use Kurama to see how far we have come as heroes." Deku stated, and Momo nodded with a smile.

"Smart plan, that would be a great perk of having a villain like Kurama around." Shoto, nor anyone for that matter, couldn't deny the logic behind Izuku's words. A criminal that you could face repeatedly, facing a great challenge, but with no fear of serious harm or collateral damage. It would be the perfect real world experience that any Hero-in-Training could benefit from.

"Anyway, I notice that in your plan, you relied on the villain's reactions to certain stimulus... you counted on him guessing that Iida would act like Ingenium. That was a flaw, you made an assumption." Momo corrected where she had seen that part of the battle.

He nodded and looked at the video.

"... You're right, any ideas on where I could have changed the plan?" Deku asked her for her opinion, since by her pointing out his mistakes, both of them could improve. He would avoid those mistakes, and she could create strategies and increase her battle planning as well by creating possible situations.

"I would... have had Mineta ride on Iida's back using his Quirk... to take Kurama by surprise, and hopefully stick part of his body to the ground."

"I see, and with his small size, Iida's larger body could hide him easily enough!"

"Oh man… that seems so obvious now that I think about it." Momo thought out loud, face palming at missing such an obvious tactical move they could have taken. ' Mirko was right, we were overthinking things too much. We gave ourselves tunnel vision to the obvious answers from trying to be so creative.'

They had a lot of training to do.

-With Kirishima/Sato/Mashiro-

"Hit me harder!" Kirishima shouted out as he trained with two of his fellow students, both of them using their Quirks to attack him. Sato was overloading on sugar and increasing his strength to max, before collapsing from exhaustion, a lot dumber. Mashiro on the other hand, was slamming his tail against Kirishima while practicing martial arts. That way Sato could increase the limits on how much sugar he could take, Mashiro could work on using his tail more and strengthening it, and he could work on his Hardening Quirk and increase how hard his body could go.

"All right! Now this is more my style!" Mirko punched her palm with a grin. "Oh, what I wouldn't give for a good spar. I need to get my blood pump-Ack!"

"Well unfortunately you'll just have to wait," Midnight said tauntingly as she watched the bunny hero go limp after yet another hearty zap. Ignoring the middle finger she got in return, the purplette rubbed her chin in thought as her lips curled into a sadistic grin. "But that twenty v one fight has given me a few ideas, perhaps you could give the first years a work out."

"…Go on." A matching smile appeared on Mirko's ace as well, causing te 1-A students to shiver together in dread.

"We're dead, ribbit."

He took all of their hits and tried to stay as hard as he could.

Being defeated so easily by a villain... it had left a bad taste in all of their mouths. They hadn't even put up a decent fight, and it had been a 20 vs 1 match up. The only person to touch Kurama was Todoroki, and Kurama easily broke out of his ice. Kurama allowed Toru to grab onto him, so that he could use her to block a hit from Mashiro.

"Can I... take a break? We've been at this for like 40 minutes." Mashiro asked while panting, having a hard time going on. After nearly a full hour of training his hardest with these two, he just couldn't keep up anymore.

Sato punched Kirishima in the face, and cracked his hardened skin, returning part of his face back to normal.

"Beat my ass until I can't take it, I want to become harder."

...

"Pffft-hahaha!" "Oh good god hahaha!" "My ribs! Hahaha!" Nobody in the room could keep a straight face after that, with Naruto, Setsuna, Midnight, and Mirko erupting into fits of laughter. Even Shoto couldn't help but snort at his classmate's terrible phrasing while Tsuu croaked in amusement and Momo covered her face in embarrassment.

"What's so funny?" Correction, only Mei could keep a straight face, because the double-entendre flew right over her head.

"I think we should take a break too." Sato said with slightly pale skin when he heard Kirishima say that in that tone of voice. It was one thing to shout out things like 'hit me harder' and 'again' when training, but 'beat my ass until I can't take it' and 'I want to become harder' were things you didn't shout to another guy while they were sweaty and shirtless. "My brain isn't working so good now... and I'm tired... wanna nap." Sato was feeling the side effects of using his Quirk kick in.

Eating sugar for amazing strength, but becoming dumber and sleepy after he used his Quirk, so he needed to increase his tolerance to his Quirk and sugar in general.

' That was really gay sounding... if Kirishima didn't send awkward glances at Yaoyorozu's boobs, and look away awkwardly... I would assume he was gay after hearing that. Good thing this is his back yard.' Mashiro sat down and took his much needed rest after all of their training. They had been doing this training for a few days, and they hadn't really been making great progress or anything like that.

"Yeah, no offense but he does kind of come off as a little… okay really really gay at times." Setsuna said once she got her laughter back under control, silently thanking Naruto when he wiped the tears off her face.

"I will admit I have considered that he might be bisexual at times." Momo admitted sheepishly while Tsuyu nodded in agreement. With how often he raved about manliness and the way he was basically attached to the hip with Bakugo since the beginning of the school year, it was hard NOT to consider the possibility.

Results weren't instant after all, but they felt that if they worked together, they could at least improve their fighting abilities enough to not get instantly taken out by a serious villain. Kirishima went completely normal and collapsed on his back to rest completely, so that he could get his own energy back faster.

It was quiet for them, they needed to just get their breath back, so that they could get back to fighting each other. They didn't have anything to really say either, they didn't know each other that well just yet. None of them really had anything in common, after only being classmates for a little while. They just knew their Quirks were good for training together, that was about it.

"... Does anyone else think that Denki's head always has, like, Mii Channel Music playing in it?" Kirishima asked the other two with a grin on his face. The cool guy of the group, Denki, seemed cool but he also seemed like he was only pretending to be cool. Under that, Kirishima was pretty sure Denki was just a big idiot.

"That is kind of ru-"

"Guilty." Sato admitted that he had thought that Denki seemed like an idiot, and that maybe he had music playing in his head all the time. "... Not Mii channel though... I think that Denki's head has Baby Shark playing in it." Sato gave his own alternative to what music went on in Denki's head.

"That's what I imagined too, ribbit." Tsuyu stated casually, earning a few snickers and nods while Shoto shrugged unsurely when everyone looked at him.

"…Nyan Cat." Momo admitted with a sheepish smile after the attention turned to her next.

Mashiro looked at Sato with a raised eyebrow, before he raised his hand up.

...

"Space Uniform." Mashiro admitted to his own idea on this topic as well. Kirishima and Sato looked at him, and pointed their fingers at him in total agreement. The three of them started to laugh together, since when they heard what Mashiro stated, they had to agree that his idea was way funnier than their own. "Now... what song do you guys think he thinks plays in his head?" Mashiro asked with a grin.

Ooooh, good one.

"Master Exploder, Tenacious D." They answered together.

"Eh, I could see that." Naruto said with a chuckle, he didn't know the guy as well but it just seemed fitting.

-With Denki and Jirou-

"Aaaaaaaah... this hurts a lot..." Jirou shouted out as her entire body spasmed uncontrollably. She had her earphone jacks stuck in both of Denki's ears and she blasted her heartbeat into his body to increase her ability to produce sound while getting shocked. Because he was shocking her at the same time, to increase his ability to shock people while under physical stress.

"I figured those two would end up working together, ribbit." Tsuyu said since, despite how much Jirou claimed not to like Denki, she always seemed to end up hanging out with the electric teen.

"Ugh… more filler? Seriously?" An irritated Mirko stamped her foot several times, making the whole room shake a bit. "Come on! Can we just get to the good shit already?"

Rolling her eyes as everyone else struggled to stay in their seats, Midnight smacked the bunny themed Pro-hero upside the head to ger her to stop. "Quit it. This isn't exactly video on demand, you'll just have to wait it out."

"Fuck that! Hey pinkie, I thought you said this thing cut out all this boring filler shit. Get over here and fix it."

"There's nothing to fix, its most likely because this 'filler' as you call it has information that's important to the context of the-"

"It's just teenagers gossiping about shit, that's not important," Mirko cut Mei off dryly before she started fiddling with random parts of the Viewer. She pushed the pause/play button repeatedly, fiddled with the siding, and eventually popped open a panel which let her fiddle with some wiring.

"Hey! Stop that!" Something Mei did NOT like one bit as the busty pinkette dropping her current project and appearing by the bunny heroine's side in the blink of an eye. Grabbing her hand, the inventive teen tried, and failed quite spectacularly, to pull the hand out as Mirko kept rifling around inside. "That's delicate wiring in there, you're gonna-"

pop* *Bzzzz*

"There, that's better." Mirko stated with a smirk when the machine popped and fizzled before the projection started playing three times as fast.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaah! I don't need... a microphone... my voice is fucking... powerful!" Denki tried to act cool by singing a song while getting blasted with sound. Her earphone jacks retracted when she couldn't take his shocks anymore, and he fell onto his ass holding his bleeding ears. "How did you like that?" Denki asked Jirou.

She had collapsed onto her ass as well.

"I think you're singing sucks, and that was the worst Tenacious D impression I've ever heard. We're here to train, not play around. Kurama humiliated all of us, and I don't want to get taken down like a total bitch again." Jirou wanted to keep her focus on training, since that was why she had asked Denki if she could visit his home after school. He was the only one with a Quirk that could help her in this way... and he was the only one dumb enough to agree to getting blasted by soundwaves repeatedly for an entire training session.

"Man, you took that loss way hard huh?"

"You're damn right, Kurama destroyed us."

"What!?"

"Why did you ask me a question, when you can't even hear the answer?" Jirou had a hard time believing a person this dumb could actually exist in a hero class. She wasn't that smart herself, but at the very least, she wasn't as dumb as Mina and Denki, they were the dumb-dumbs of the class so far. Thankfully, no, thank god that was the case, and she wasn't nearly as stupid as the two dumb dumbs of the class.

"There, now we can just skip pat all this boring stuff until we get to the part where I kick that smug little bastards head in." The bunny heroine said smugly while crossing her arms as the scenes played by super fast.

"Oh really, and how exactly did you plan to slow it back down when we get to those parts?" Mei asked sarcastically, gesturing to the still sparking wiring in the panel Mirko had tampered with.

…

…

"I didn't think about that."

"Of course you didn't." Shaking her head, the support student finally managed to yank the pro hero's hand out of the way so she could get to work fixing the mess.

Training with Denki was already frustrating, from now on, she was going to go and train with Mina, Tsuyu, and Sero. Those three had Quirks that didn't make training together easy for them, but at least (other than Mina), she would be surrounded by people with something resembling intelligence. Actually, she didn't know how the three of them were going to train together, since their abilities just didn't match up at all for good training.

"Meep... meep... I can hear again... Man, you took that loss way hard huh?" Denki asked his question again with a wide grin.

"20 of us vs 1 of him, and we didn't do a damn thing to even hold him back. We were all pathetic, no matter how you look at it. That pisses me off... and he barely even had to try to take us out." Jirou stated as she balled her hand up into a fist and pushed it against the ground. It was harder for her to admit, but she had been one of the ones who hadn't been able to do anything. Kurama's flesh was too dangerous for her, since her Quirk involved her physically touching people with her body, when she wasn't using her Hero equipment.

"I mean, he was Kurama... we didn't stand a chance at all, I just thought it would look uncool to walk away. Heroes gotta be cool, anyway, I can't look uncool in front of such a cool dude." Denki explained with a thumb points at himself.

Jirou paused and looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Cool... Kurama? You know, the guy who..." Jirou blushed a little when she remembered the little fact that Kurama had stripped her butt naked and switched her clothes with Deku's clothes. She had learned what type of underwear that Deku wore for starters, which was a little embarrassing, and second was the fact a boy had seen her naked body. She would think that he touched her, if he weren't Kurama, and thus it was unlikely he did anything actually bad. "... stripped us naked and made us all crossdress." Jirou continued her statement as she blushed more heavily.

"Can anyone understand what they're saying?" Shoto asked, pointing at the projection, getting a bunch of shrugs or head shakes.

"I think she was talking about when I made her cross dress." Naruto said unsurely while Tsuyu nodded. With their more sensitive hearing towards acoustics, it was just a tad bit easier for them to make out the speedy speech, though not by much.

Some people brushed that part off, but facts remain facts, and Jirou was conflicted, since before the first attack, she too thought of Kurama as the coolest villain. Actually, she still thought of him as cool, and she hated the fact that she thought he was cool. Still, the fact remains that he saw her with and without her panties... and what was worse was the panties she had been wearing that day.

They had been her Kurama-panties.

Setsuna let out a low whistle when the vision briefly showed Jirou in naught but the UA shirt and panties. "Damn, nice undies, gotta get me a pair of those."

' Thank god Jirou wasn't here to see that.' Momo didn't even want to imagine how pissed her friend would be at people seeing her in her underwear like that.

Since, as a hero candidate, she couldn't afford being seen wearing the Kurama line of outfits and clothes, she had gone more discreet with what she wore. She had bought herself a matching bra/panty combo set that had 'Top Villain' written on it, with a Chibi-version of Kurama's head on it. He had seen those panties, and what was more embarrassing was the fact that she couldn't wear them anymore because not only had Kurama seen them... but so that Deku as well.

"Could you hurry up Mei? I can't tell if we're missing anything important." Shoto's lips curled into a frown as the scenes just kept slipping by at high speed.

"Hold on, I think that should-gotcha!" There was another electrical pop before the video slowed back down to normal. "There, all better, and just to make sure it doesn't happen again..."

The inventive genius pulled out a little device that looked like a laser pointer, soon revealed to be a miniature spot welder that she used…

"OW!? The fuck!"

To burn Mirko's hand.

"Don't meddle with my babies again." Mei said with a "polite" smile before flopping back into a chair, ignoring the death glare she was getting from the trapped rabbit heroine.

"Eh, that isn't that bad. I mean, compared to people like Yaoyorozu and Mina, Kurama wouldn't be too focused on your bo- what are you doing GAH!?"

Jirou used her Quirk and Denki learned that some things needed to remain unsaid. Her cheeks were furiously red as she blasted her heartbeat full force through his ears, not even training at this point. She covered up her chest with her hands, glaring at him for the reminder that she had small boobs when compared to all of their classmates.

"Wise man once say 'Never call a flat girl flat to her face, lest you wish yours to be paste'," Naruto said in a perfect impression of an old man voice while pretending to stroke a long beard, earning a few snickers and giggles. "With a mouth like that I don't think zappy there is landing himself a girlfriend anytime soon."

"Yeah, he says something along those lines almost every day, usually right next to Jirou, ribbit," Tsuyu stated. "Though that does beg the question about why she keeps hanging out with him."

She was done training for the day, at least with Denki.

-With Mina/Tsuyu/Sero-

'Sero is surprisingly fast with his tape.' Tsuyu thought as she jumped on all fours, the only way for her to get all of her power into her jump. Since they couldn't go to school to do this, and since they couldn't use their Quirks in public, they were forced to train at Tsuyu's house, since her place had the most space to it. Seeing as she had a good sized family, her house had a backyard big enough for them to do some close quarters training.

"Oh, that's a nice place, very homely."

"Thank you Setsuna, ribbit."

Just don't destroy anything, and be careful about the grass.

She already told her parents that she would use her allowance to buy the grass seeds so that she could replant any grass that Mina's Quirk destroyed. Their training wasn't going to be destructive, they were just increasing the speed that Sero could use his tape, while also increasing their own dodging ability.

"Come on Sero, gotta be faster than that to get me~!" Mina taunted in a sing-song voice as she skated around the backyard using her slime, having taken her shoes off so that she could move around freely. She had bits of tape stuck to her body from the times where Sero did get her, she and Tsuyu both had shredded tape on their bodies. Torn in Tsuyu's case, and melted in Mina's situation, but they weren't training for direct combat.

' Not bad, she's certainly got a pretty good sense of balance.' Naruto thought while watching Mina slide around on the grassy yard with her acidic trails. It was a lot harder than it looked since despite how even the yard looked at a glance the trained eye could see all the slopes, divots, and mounds that could all too easy trip someone up if not careful.

They were training escape and capture.

'I wish the Spatial Awareness part of my Quirk were stronger. It would be great to be able to not need my eyes to dodge things as much.' Tsuyu thought as she saw tape coming, and jumped so that she was sticking to the side of her home.

At the words of her counterpart, Tsuyu once again found herself staring at the enigmatic blonde wit ha toad quirk. She couldn't help but think again about the training he had mentioned before and the possibilities it could lead to.

On the one hand it could make her an incredibly more effective Pro-Hero if she was even a fraction as good as he was at sensing incoming danger. On the other, the way he'd described it even briefly told er there was a good chance she'd LOATHE whatever said training had in mind.

She saw her sister in the house from her window, the window that was open. "... You spelled that wrong, it has a silent K." Tsuyu explained to her little sister, who was surprised by the sudden words.

Tsuyu had tape wrap around her waist, and she was yanked off of the window, and roughly hit the ground. Thankfully, she was moderately durable enough to withstand it with only a little pain.

"Ouch." Mina said for her with a wince, a wince that allowed Sero to catch her too when she was distracted. She was yanked backyards so that she landed on her back. She let acid drip from her hands onto the tape, and broke herself free instantly. Tsuyu nearly used her tongue to rip the tape and crawled back to her feet. "Dude, you look like you came out of a desert." Mina explained as she looked towards Sero to compliment him on catching them but noticed that he seemed very dehydrated.

His skin looked like he could do with some serious water.

"Well... it isn't like I magically make tape... I use stuff from my body to make it. Also, this is really bad on my elbows." Sero gestured to his elbows, the part of his body he shot tape out of. He couldn't magically produce an infinite amount of tape, going over his limits could kill him if he wasn't careful about it.

"The dude looks like a walking mummy. Maybe one of them should spray him with a hose." Setsuna suggested half-jokingly, the poor guy did look like he could use a nice long soak in a pool or something.

Tsuyu looked at him with concern in her mind, but not on her face.

"Oooooh, so that is how your tapey-thingy works. If I make too much acid, it starts to hurt me too... I lose my resistance to my Quirk if I overdo it. Gotta get some rest when I do to get that goodness back." Mina collapsed on her butt, and she wiped the acid off of her feet. She showed that her feet were dripping with thick fluid, but underneath it her feet were clearly irritated. Her purplish pink skin was showing signs of beginning to burn away.

Sero didn't comment, he was given a view of her feet dripping with a thick, white fluid, while she had her legs spread out.

It was a subconsciously erotic image.

"It looks like she just stroked a dozen guys off a-" *Pft* "-Mph!?"

"Thank you for letting me borrow this." Momo said to Mei while returning the pinkette's web-shooter after using it to tape up Setsuna's mouth. She may be a nice girl but there was only so much lewd humor she could stand about her and her friends in one day.

"Ye-yeah... I think we should break for a bit. As... Tsuyu, can we order a pizza? I'm sort of hungry."

"You two can stay for dinner if you want, my parents won't be home tonight. We can train some more after." Tsuyu offered both of them. She had worked up a killer sweat herself, and though she didn't show it, she was hard on breath. Mina was the most fit of them, and she had worked up a light sweat herself. Sero would be sweating, if his body weren't so dehydrated, not to mention he didn't do any running around.

He was increasing the speed he launched his tape and how accurate he was with it, that was about it.

"Ahahahaha, sounds fun to me! I'm a little tired, we've been at it for awhile now!" Mina was cool with taking a break, she needed to wait a bit before using her Quirk some more anyway. She unbuttoned her shirt, and though Sero wanted to look, he turned his eyes away. "Oh, don't worry, I'm wearing a sports bra dude~!" Mina took her shirt off without much of a care, since she wore crop tops all the time anyway, this was still about her usual exposure level.

"I'm starting to think that you and Jirou girl are the only girls in your class who actually cares about decency." Naruto bluntly told Tsuyu with a shake of his head, getting the frog girl to croak softly as she tapped her lip.

"There's also Ochako, though sometimes I suspect she may be… bolder than she lets on, ribbit."

"Oh-ho? Tell me more."

"…I've probably said to much already."

My Touch Is Poison

'She is wearing a Kurama sports bra... didn't know she was a fan of his.' Sero thought when he saw the chibi-head of their recent villain encounter in front of his view. Her left breast had the chibi-face, while her right one had the words on it. It was done in fancy, curvy letters though, and in its orange color, the black letters seemed more dangerous. "You're his fan?" Sero asked with a curious glance.

"I'm not surprised," Momo couldn't help but giggle upon seeing her pink classmate adorned in Kurama merch. Even though he was a villain, he just seemed like the kind of guy Mina would love to hang out with.

'Hmmmm? Poison touch... he seems to have spatial awareness... strong legs.' Tsuyu saw Mina's bra, she didn't know they made Kurama-themed bras since she hadn't been underwear shopping in forever. Her bra made her think about Kurama's poison touch, and how it didn't seem to make sense with the rest of his shown abilities. 'Not to mention, he can change his body color to match his surroundings... His Quirk... it sounds like mine.' Tsuyu thought to herself with a frown starting to show up.

"Oh, looks like someone might be starting to put the pieces together." Naruto said, chuckling softly as he gently nudged Tsuyu's side.

"You seem awfully calm about that, ribbit," The frog girl retorted. "Shouldn't you be concerned that my other self might figure out yours criminal identity?"

"Yeah, sure, because out of the hundreds if not thousands of frog and toad quirked individuals that live in the city you'll just happen to deduce that it's me on the fact you suspect Kurama might have a Toad quirk."

"Well you are the only one that has a Toad quirk and the ability to get passed UA's security thanks to your student pass." Shoto added, getting the whiskered blonde to roll his eyes with a snort.

"Please, I got passed that with a roll of tinfoil and a rubber duck."

…

"…You meant could've, right?" The lack of answer caused everyone to slowly turn towards Naruto as he just kept watching the projection with a knowing smirk.

"Yeah, when Kurama took down Mt. Lady, Bubble Girl, I had to admit... joined the fandom. It was really cool and super scary when I had to fight Kurama, seeing the news and being in danger were way different. Still though, if the clothes got his name on it, I've got them in my size, I totes ship him and Mirko together." Mina exclaimed with a proud smile, puffing out her chest in pride. Since his debut, nobody had chased him more than Mirko, and because of that, Mina shipped the two of them together so hard.

'He is slower than me, and he doesn't jump as high from what I saw... but he has also shown enhanced strength... not to mention, the way he disguises his eyes...' Tsuyu thought to herself as she thought on what she had seen so far. To the trained and untrained eye, it would seem that he was just using a poison on himself to boost his abilities. The fact remained that her Quirk did similar things.

She even had poison as well, but she didn't inherit a very strong poison, her poison was only mildly irritating.

Actually, she had almost all of his powers, even if they weren't very developed.

"Okay, we get it already, he rocks, you suck, stop bringing it up," It was bad enough she had to keep hearing them bring it up here, now Mirko had to deal with it in the show too? Fuck that! "Maybe if you stop being a pansy and trained harder that wouldn't be the case."

"Says the one who got herself trapped in a chair, ribbit." Tsuyu retorted, causing a vein to bulge on the bunny hero's forehead.

"I will kick your ass all the way to the moon when I get out of this stupid fucking thing..."

"Mina... did Kurama ever show any enhanced durability? Did he ever get hit by anything that would take down a person who isn't really durable?" Tsuyu asked Mina, who had paid more attention to Kurama than she herself did. Her being a fan of the hot and trendy super villain might just be able to confirm some things for her.

"Not that I know of, no hero has ever hit him before." Sero answered without meaning to, since he paid attention to the news.

"Eeeeeeeeeh... I don't think so... I never actually saw a ton of footage of his crimes... I mean, he got hit by a truck once when he saved a dude." Mina scratched her head, and Tsuyu tilted her head. She didn't know he had gotten hit by a truck, then again, she never really paid much attention to news on Kurama, despite him being all over it now.

""I got what now?/You were what?"" Naruto and Setsuna asked at the same time.

"It happened a while ago, Kurama was being chased by Mirko when a car tipped on ice, Mirko was caught up stopping the crash so he ended up rushing in to save a guy that flew out of into traffic." Mei explained while tinkering with…

"Is that an octopus?" Setsuna's brow rose at seeing a little robotic octopus in the inventive pinkette's grasp with the top popped open to reveal a bunch of fancy circuitry inside.

"Of course not, this is my new and improved Immobilizer Grenade mark two," Mei said with a proud grin, holding up the device for all to see. Flipping the top back in place, she pressed a button that caused it to spew immobilization goo over herself from its mouth, before pressing another button that sucked it all right back up without a problem… aside from a few locks of hair getting yoinked out. "As you can see it now has a specialized retraction system so as to prevent the same problem that happened with whatever his name was."

"…Anyone else think that looked really, REALLY hot?" Setsuna asked, getting her boyfriend, Midnight, and surprisingly Tsuyu to raise a hand.

Tsuyu paused for a second.

"I think... I think I might know who Kurama might be." Tsuyu didn't know absolutely sure, but if she was right and she knew what his Quirk was, then it explained how Kurama didn't trip any alarms when he broke into the school. He didn't break any alarms, because he didn't break in at all. He was able to break in, because he was a school student.

"No way, who?!" Sero loudly asked her in shock.

She shook her head.

"I don't want to say, just in case I'm wrong. After dinner... I think instead of training... we should go pay Midnight-sensei a visit. I want to confirm something with a boy that lives with her." Tsuyu had a hunch, but if she was correct, then she might be able to confirm her theory. If she was right, then the person who called himself Kurama, had the Toad Quirk similar to her own Frog Quirk. She knew of a student who lived with Midnight, a student with a Toad Quirk that her brother idolized as a cool guy from the hospital.

"Oh Tsuyu, I thought you were better than this, such a shame." Naruto said, sticking his chin up with a mock huff as he crossed his arms.

"Such a disappointment." Setsuna added while making the iconic disappointed 'tsk tsk' sound before breaking out into giggles, unable to keep up the façade very long. Shaking her head, the frog girl in question rolled her eyes with a soft bemused sounding croak.

"Um, what are you two talking about?" Momo asked with a tilted head, completely lost at what the pair were talking about.

"They're implying that I picked Naruto out as Kurama because he's an orphan, ribbit."

"What?! That's preposterous! You would never-"

"Easy muffin-top," An empty chip-bag soared across the room and landed perfectly in the creation quirked teen's mouth curtesy of Naruto. "There's no need to get all up in a huff, we're just kidding. She may have a sharp tongue when she wants but she doesn't seem like the judgmental type."

"Actually, you have to admit that it does seem a little bit judgy," His girlfriend refuted his claim, her tone saying she would have shrugged if she still had shoulders. "There's over six hundred students that go to UA and the toad quirk is really commonplace. The fact she immediately figured it was you instead of thinking to check if there were any other students with the quirk first does kind of make it seem a little… biased."

"She does have a point." Mei stated while Shoto reluctantly nodded in agreement.

"But Tsuyu's right, he is Kurama" The rich girl said in her friend's defense once she got the bag out of her mouth.

"Accurate profiling is still profiling, ribbit."

"Not you too Tsu…"

"Really!?" Mina asked with pure excitement.

If she was right, then Tsuyu would be the first person in the school to figure out... no, the first hero period to figure out Kurama's true identity.

"Can't you tell us?" Sero questioned her a little.

"If I say his name, and I'm wrong, then there is a chance we can ruin his reputation." Tsuyu didn't want to say anything unless she was 100% sure she was correct. Since accusing a person of being a villain was a serious crime, not to be taken lightly. If she came out and claimed that Naruto Uzumaki was Kurama without any sufficient proof (her idea on his Quirk wasn't proof, since it could potentially be explained as him using his Quirk to drug himself). "I'll run a bath, so you two can take turns and get cleaned up. I'll make dinner, and take one myself before we all eat."

' Well at least she's smart enough not to go blabbing all over the place about who she suspect.' Considering the incident with the photo of Izuku on her lap, Midnight had no doubt that if Tsuyu told Mina her suspicions that inevitably the entire school would hear about it. She was a nice girl but an unrepentant gabber when it came to juicy gossip and likely wouldn't think of the potential consequences.

What really sold her on her theory though, what she could not explain away with poison, was the fact that Kurama had been able to stick to the ground even though Ochaco had got him with her Quirk. She could make objects unaffected by gravity, meaning he couldn't use his poison to stick to the ground, since his poison would float too. If he had a Toad Quirk though, then he could indeed stay sticking.

"Okay… I've got to hear this, how exactly would zero gravity stop his poison from sticking?" Mirko asked Tsuyu with a raised brow. She wasn't the smartest but sticky was sticky regardless of gravity.

"Think like a video game, ribbit. Poison is Sticky Level 1, and Zero Gravity is level 3... so Poison just isn't high enough sticky level to stay stuck."

"Ah, gotcha."

-With Izuku/Momo-

"-so, I feel that if you used your Quirk to create a cannon, you can have it fire out nets instead of simple cannonballs, if you want to go for a capture strategy." Deku explained as he went over Momo's idea for a battle against a villain with a Quirk that would allow for him to duplicate himself into smaller versions of himself. They were taking turns creating fake villains, and then picking three of their classmates at random and having those classmates fight the fake villain, using an idea for a battle strategy.

Then, the other one would find the flaws in the battle strategy, and offer ideas for how the strategy could be further improved. Once the improvements were offered, they would argue for their own plan, or make corrections and modifications to the updated plans.

"Hey, that'd be a perfect moment for my Viewer baby, at least when it's being used as intended." Mei said, adding the last bit to herself with a slight frown. She was still a tiny bit miffed that most who saw her amazing invention were more interested in using it to ship people.

It was a super advance simulator for battle strategy and training tactics, not a dating advice service!

"Have you considered pitching this thing to the entertainment industry? You'd probably have film producers willing to pay you out the ass to use this to make movies and TV shows." Naruto's voice cut through the inventive pinkette's thoughts, his words causing her to pause in the middle of tightening the last bolt on her Immobilization Grenade.

One could almost see the cogs revving up in her head as she mulled over what the whiskered teen had said. Her invention could be used to make scenes in movies, making movies made lots of money, lots of money meant more funding to make babies, which means-

"I've got to make some calls!" Mei jumped from her seat with a manic grin as she-

"Oh no you don't."

"Gak!" Was grabbed and tossed right back into a chair by Mirko when she was going by her.

"You ain't doing any kind of marketizing with this thing until I'm out of it, got it?" To emphasize her point, the rabbit heroine laid her leg across the eccentric girl's lap, effectively trapping her in the chair.

"But-but that'll be like two whole days!"

"Yeah, sucks doesn't it?"

This was how they were going to train.

"I see, a good idea in theory, but depending on how small the enemy can make himself, this could fail. If he can make copies small enough to go through the netting. Anyway, I'm not seeing this poison on the web... the molecular composition is very... odd. It's not plant based, and it isn't manmade based either... I don't see dangerous predators that use this poison either." Momo spoke as she looked through a list, online, of different chemical formulas for different poisons. She wasn't seeing Kurama's poison's chemical composition listed on any of them, so either his poison was entirely unique to him, or she was just having bad luck finding what it was.

"Or it's too dangerous to be publicly listed on the internet." Midnight pointed out since obviously there were some things that people couldn't post up for just anyone to find.

"Coffee?"

Inko came into the room and offered the two of them coffee, since they were studying, a good cup of coffee would help energize their brains.

"Thank you for the offer, but I avoid coffee as much as I can." Momo kindly rejected, despite rejecting it being slightly rude.

"I'll drink both." Deku didn't want his mother's offer to go to waste, so he took both drinks and sat them down. When his mother left, he looked at Momo curiously. "You don't drink coffee?" Deku asked her questioningly.

"Coffee contains a lipolytic enzyme, lipolytic enzymes break down fats. For my Quirk to work at its best, my body needs to have a good store of fats. I've got to keep a good balance between fat and muscle." Momo had a naturally slim figure, and she had athletic muscles because she worked herself out, but she was thicker than the other girls in the class because she also had more fat on her body. "If I slim down too much, my Quirk is less effective, but if I get fat or become overweight in general, then my athletic abilities and general health will drop."

"Or in other words, to be a good heroine you just gotta have that nice thicc booty." Setsuna said while wiggling her eyebrows suggestively, making Momo's cheeks gain a light red tint.

"Crude… but not inaccurate."

Momo knew that some people believed that she could become simply fat so that she could use her Quirk more.

To be a hero, you needed to have more than a good Quirk, you needed to be both healthy and able to perfom the job in all of its aspects. Yes, if she allowed herself to become fat, she could use her Quirk more, but her health would suffer from it. She would get an increased chance of diseases, and just suffer in general. Instead of being able to use her Quirk more, she would prefer to balance using her Quirk less, with using it more intelligently and supplementing it with good athletic abilities.

"Well, you scored Number 1 in the Quirk Appreciation Test, so you've done a very good job." Deku analyzed her words.

Her athletic abilities were outstanding in general, and with her Quirk, she wasn't able to use it as much during that test. She had the best Quirk in the class for a wide range of things, both in and out of battle.

"Best quirk as long as she got that big ol ass of hers to make stuff with at least."

"Could you please stop talking about that?" Momo pleaded to Setsuna as she unconsciously tried to cover her rear end with her hands.

"Okay, okay," The bodiless greenette conceded with a giggle, getting the ravenette to sigh in reli- "So do those tig ol bitties act as emergency reserves or something? Because they never seem to get smaller no matter how much you use your quirk. In fact I think they got even bigger at one point."

"T-they did not!" And now she was trying to cover her chest too…

' Heh, déjà vu.' Midnight thought with a snicker.

"Thank you Midoriya, but I can still improve... I have a lot of room to go. Even more so if I want to become a hero able to..." Momo trailed off when she thought about Kurama.

She wanted to become as great a hero, as he was a villain. She wanted her ability to use her Quirk, to surpass his own ability to use whatever his Quirk was.

Deku said nothing, and just thought of his own desire to surpass All Might.

"Kurama's Quirk... his Quirk... he doesn't teleport... or control electronics... so it would be impossible for him to get into the school without tripping alarms, unless he had help from a student... but more likely than that..." Momo, when thinking on Kurama's Quirk, suddenly realized that he seemed to be around their age and was already able to use his Quirk on par, or surpassing Pro Heroes.

Yet, his Quirk did not have the properties to allow him to break into one of the most secure places in Japan.

"That makes sense as well, seeing as-"

There was a loud smack that cut Momo off and made everyone else jump in their seats as Naruto palmed his face. "That has got to be the single most asinine deduction I've ever heard…"

"Why would you say that?" The rich teen asked, both confused and offended.

"Because it's true," The blonde stated without hesitation, raising his head to give the creation quirked girl a dry look. "Saying that nobody could get past the UA alarm system unless they had a quirk suited to do so is just dumb. You're completely dismissing the possibility that it could be done with skill, knowledge, and planning alone."

"Plus you admitted to already doing so, ribbit."

"Allegedly."

"What is alleged about it, you said you did it like five minutes ago."

"Anyway," Naruto pointedly ignored Tsuyu as he kept talking to Momo. "You are way too focused on what someone can or cannot do with their quirks. For all you know Kurama could just be extensively knowledgeable in electronics and security systems and found a blind spot that the designers missed when setting it up. Or maybe he just knows someone who could get him passed said systems for him and convinced them to help."

"Well…" Now that he'd pointed that out, Momo really couldn't argue that her other-self's (and her own) logic did follow a lot of assumptions. "I guess you have a point, but we were right in this case. You had to be a student to get into the school after all."

…

"Tsu, hold my girlfriend." That was the only warning Tsuyu got before she suddenly found herself with Setsuna's head on her lap.

"Oh ho ho, you've done it now." The bodiless greenette said with a big smirk while Naruto hopped to his feet, rolling his shoulders and stretching his arms over his head until his back cracked.

"What? What'd I do?" If she was confused before Momo was completely lost now as she tried, and failed, to understand what was going on. A confusion that spread to everyone else when the whiskered teen headed for the doorway.

"Where are you going?" Shoto asked, causing Naruto to look over his shoulder with a suspiciously innocent smile.

"I'm just going to Mirko's office to pick up a change of clothes for her, she's starting to smell rather ripe. Be right back." He flashed a peace sign before literally hopping out of sight.

"…What the fuck just happened?" Midnight voiced what everyone else was thinking, before they all turned to the only one that could possible answer that question: IE Setsuna.

"Well isn't it obvious? Richy rich said he couldn't do it so he's gonna prove he can," The dividing girl explained with a snicker. "All top ten heroes get the same level of security installed into their offices as UA once they're officially voted in after all. To keep out the paparazzi, overzealous fans, and would be assassins while they're trying to get work done."

"Really?" Heads turned to the rabbit heroine since it seemed… not her to bother about such things when it came to dealing with people. She was more beat the hell out of trespassers personally than letting a security system deal with them type of person.

"Fucking fanboys…" Was all Mirko said as she crossed her arms, grumbling something about perverts and panty thieves under her breath.

"Also, he is going to have to sneak back into UA with the change of clothes since he isn't a student." Setsuna added with her smirk growing when she saw the dawning realization on everyone's face.

"Well he'd better get back fast so I can kick his teeth in," Mirko said while cracking her knuckles menacingly. "Saying I smell… I don't smell…"

"Mirko, you haven't showered or changed in two days, an you'd just done a full workout before getting here, you definitely smell." Midnight stated bluntly, which only made the rabbit heroine scowl even harder.

"Tell ya what, how about when Naruto gets back he gives you a nice sponge bath as an apology?" Said blonde's girlfriend offered jokingly before erupting into giggles when Mirko's face turned completely red She laughed so hard she ended up toppling over on Tsuyu's lap, falling face first into the frog girl's thighs.

"It's not Poison, but something that simply has the ability to use poison... he uses it with his skin... so that rules out anything that uses fangs or claws..."

"Toad!" Momo and Deku said together when the idea came to both of them. It was a popular pet among many, a very poisonous toad that used a dangerous poison with its skin. Not only would it fit in with his poison, but it would also explain his other shown abilities as well.

"Naruto Uzumaki!" Momo realized with a bright smile.

He was the boy that 'Kurama' switched her uniform with, he seemed to have about the same body type and jawline. Not to mention when Naruto was giving her back her clothes, she had been able to see his blond hair, and hear his voice.

"Oh, so now two more have figured it out? This should be interesting." Midnight thought out loud with a hum, curious how this would play out. That made at least five students that suspected who Kurama's real identity was but the question is would they be able to act on those suspicions.

"Wait... do we have proof Kurama and Naruto are the same person... other than having the same Quirk?" Deku asked, since this was a horribly large thing to say about a person.

"That would be a quick way to completely ruin an innocent person's life." Having grown up with a top ten hero as a father, Shoto had seen the devastation that followed false accusations. Pro-Heroes having to retire early, some even forced to move out of the country, relationships broken up, families ruined.

All thanks to a little bitty mistakenly accepted falsity.

"Wait... didn't Midnight bring him lunch... I thought I heard somebody mention that rumor." Deku muttered under his breath.

Maybe they could ask Midnight... but this wasn't something they should ask at school, so they needed to visit Midnight where she lived.

"... Lets go ask a teacher where Midnight-sensei lives, and talk with her about Naruto."

-With Naruto/Nemuri (Later)-

"Man, we are really bouncing around from place to place in this one, aren't we?" Setsuna muttered as Tsuyu stood her back up on her lap, the frog girl nodding in agreement with the greenette.

Naruto sat in a completely meditative position with Nemuri standing right behind him, and he took a deep breath in, and a deep breath out. Under the excuse of wanting to show off at the Sport's Festival that would be coming up rather soon (all courses, not just the hero course) would be participating, Naruto had managed to get an excuse to have Nemuri help him develop the spatial awareness aspect of his Quirk.

Or rather, trying to clear his mind.

He couldn't turn off his spatial awareness, it was something he physically could not do, since his spatial awareness came from his skin and senses, so he couldn't turn it off. So, he was taking the other alternative, instead of learning how to upgrade himself, he wanted to learn how to do something else. Empty his mind of all thoughts, to clear his mind like how Himiko was able to do when she beat his spatial awareness in the first place.

"I get it," Momo said, "Instead of focusing on his own abilities that he can't change he's trying to learn her trick on getting around it in the first place. Smart."

*SLAP*

Mirko snorted at seeing Naruto getting smacked.

"I saw that twitch on your face, you just thought of something young man." Nemuri slapped the back of his head, and he twitched in irritation at being slapped. He sucked up his displeasure, since he asked for help... as much as even that irked him personally.

Naruto took a deep breath.

Clearing his mind.

*Ding dong*

Ding dong... dammit, Naruto couldn't clear his mind with any distractions. Nemuri gave the door an odd look, but she walked towards it anyway. She looked outside of the peephole and saw that there were students from her class outside. She opened the door, and looked to see Tsuyu, Sero, and Mina were all at the door waiting.

"Well that didn't take very long," Setsuna said with a giggle. "Hey Tsu, how much you wanna bet that Momo and Izuku are about to waltz in next and be shocked that you're already there?"

"That's a sucker's bet, ribbit."

"Hello Midnight-sensei... sorry to interrupt you so late." Tsuyu bowed in apology.

"No problem... what brings you three-"

"Sorry to interrupt Midnight-sensei, but can we... you guys came here too?" Momo asked when she ran up the stairs, and she saw some of her other classmates were waiting in front of the apartment as well. She blinked as Deku followed behind her, and he looked to see classmates there as well.

"Called it."

"No problems at all, what brings all of you here?" Nemuri was cool with them visiting, she didn't really understand what reason they could have, but they must have a good one. "I'm helping Naruto right now, but feel free to come in."

"You're pretty relaxed about a bunch of students just showing up at your home Midnight-sensei." Momo had expected the heroine to be at least a little bit annoyed at five teens just showing up at her apartment out of the blue. Obvious sex jokes about her being the R-rated heroine aside, it would be rather irritating to have work follow you back home.

"I'm a teacher, you have to expect students might need some help after hours." The purplette in question said with a shrug.

"We actually wanted to speak with Naruto." Tsuyu looked into the apartment, and she saw Naruto inside sitting down and trying to meditate. Mina and Sero looked and saw Naruto as well, and they both started to become giddy when they looked at him.

"Oh no, you actually told them…" If she could Setsuna would have palmed her face, hard, at seeing just how openly excited the duo with Tsuyu's other self were. They weren't even trying to hide the fact they knew something they shouldn't.

"Or maybe they figured out for themselves, ribbit." Tsuyu said in her own defense… only to be met with deadpan looks from everyone else.

"I don't like speaking rudely of our friends, but it took Mina almost a whole day to figure out that 'a red fruit often called a vegetable and commonly used on sandwiches' was a tomato for a crossword puzzle. And I'm pretty sure she cheated and searched up the answer online." Momo said with a shake of her head.

"…Touche, ribbit."

"How long do you think it'll take before one of them starts blurting everything?" Mirko asked Midnight, who shook her head with an exasperated sigh.

"I'm honestly amazed they didn't yet."

Momo and Deku blinked in shock.

Naruto was here!?

They just came to ask Midnight about Naruto, not to actually confront him about his possible villain status.

"Naruto are you Kurama!?" Mina couldn't stand it, and blurted out loudly. She couldn't hide her excitement at having the possible answer, and not instantly go to figure it out. She got no response from Naruto though as he simply sat in a meditative position, taking deep breaths.

"…It's official, we never tell Mina a secret ever." Momo stated dully with both Tsuyu and Shoto nodding.

"Definitely."

"Agreed, ribbit."

"You know, I'm surprised you aren't getting more upset," Midnight said as she looked at Mirko with a raised brow, genuinely flummoxed by the bunny heroine's lack of reaction. "Aren't you worried they'll bust Kurama before you can?"

"Are you kidding? He has thwarted every hero he's faced, taken out the top ten, and already duped their entire class into beating themselves. If those kids think they can actually bust him with nothing but a few half assed theories then I'm going to enjoy watching them get their asses handed back to her."

"…Fair enough." The adult themed heroine conceded with a nod.

Nemuri raised an eyebrow.

"I'm sorry to say this, but Naruto can't be Kurama, he's just not skilled enough to be Kurama. He's training right now to try and improve his Quirk." Nemuri laughed off the question. Naruto couldn't possibly be Kurama.

"I think that Kurama's Quirk is Toad, considering how similar his Quirk is to my own." Tsuyu mentioned as she looked over towards Naruto to try and see if he would react to this. All evidence pointed to the fact that he didn't even pay attention to what they were saying at all. She would say more, but again, she didn't want to accuse him anymore without more proof. This was just to see if she could get Naruto to admit it himself.

She wasn't confident when she saw his lack of reaction though.

"He's got a good poker face, ribbit."

"Oh you have no idea, but right now he just didn't hear you guys yet." Setsuna knew her boyfriend well enough to tell when the guy was not paying attention. He had a habit of losing himself in his thoughts whenever he was working on something really important to him.

However, if anyone had looked closer, they'd have seen the mischievously knowing grin that spread across the bodiless hero student's lips.

"I analyzed the poison, and I think it might be related to Toad poison." Momo stated, with Deku nodding in agreement.

Naruto finally took notice.

"What is going on?" Naruto asked when he noticed 5 members of Class 1-A were standing at the door. He had zoned out while meditating, and Nemuri didn't seem too pleased to see them anymore. Naruto got up and started to walk towards the front door. "... Who are you guys?" Naruto asked with seemingly genuine confusion. "Oh, you're... Momo?" Naruto asked when he looked at Momo.

He would know who she was, since he met her in person as Naruto.

Momo's cheeks gained a light red color at once more being reminded why Naruto would recognize her specifically.

"Are you Kurama!?"

...

"Hey Naruto, for your training, how would you like a special sparring match?" Nemuri asked him with a smile on her face. "I think you guys will have your answer... and you can consider this a good training for the Sports Festival Naruto." Nemuri offered them all.

"Huh?" Absolutely everyone asked with some surprise to the suggestion.

' Why would I… Oh, I see what I'm doing.' Midnight thought with a quiet giggle when it clicked in her head.

"Anyone else completely lost again?" Shoto asked, getting a few raised hands.

"I won't explain why, but you'll have your answers. Mina, you're athletic, why don't you spar with him?" Nemuri mentioned to them all.

...

'How will this solve anything though?' Momo thought to herself as she looked at Naruto. She tried to find any sign of shock, surprise, or even a hint that he was uncomfortable.

Nothing.

He just seemed a little confused, actually, seeing Naruto confused instead of startled by this was something that... unsettled her a little. If he didn't show a single sign of being caught, then it was possible that her theory was wrong. That she had jumped to conclusions too quickly, in which case, she would need to apologize heavily.

"What about me?" Deku offered.

"Trust me... everything will be explained. Come on, let's take this outside." Nemuri spoke with confidence as she led all of the students outside onto the grass. She looked at Naruto herself, and she saw him still confused about what was going on.

"Why am I being called Kurama?" Naruto asked the other students with a tilted head.

"Oh, you don't need to be shy Kurama." Sero pat Naruto's shoulder as they all walked down the stairs, and started to walk towards the grass. Naruto just sent him a confused look too, and he looked at the others.

"We believe, since you're a student with the Toad Quirk... that you might be Kurama." Tsuyu herself mentioned, and she watched his reaction.

She was... a little unsure when she didn't see any changes to his face that would suggest that he was feeling scared or startled by this revelation. Mina walked to one side of the grass, while Naruto walked to the other side. Nemuri stood at the side with the other students, who were watching them with slightly unsure looks, though Sero and Mina both seemed confident that they were all right.

'His reaction... he seems genuinely innocent.' Deku thought, the more he was seeing of Naruto in person, the less sure he was he and Momo were right.

'His voice and his body seem... slightly off, not to mention his personality seems... different too. He really seems like a completely different person than Kurama... was I wrong?" Momo thought as she watched Naruto carefully as he raised his fists up. Kurama didn't take up a fighting stance other than tensing his body.

Tsuyu was silent.

Naruto blinked, before he smirked.

"I'm not going to hold back, just because you're a girl. I don't know what's going on, but if kicking your ass proves I'm innocent, let's do this." Naruto raised both of his fists up into a boxing stance.

Mina blinked and her grin faded a little.

Deku looked even more unsure when he heard Naruto say that, since after observing Kurama's videos so much, this was behavior that Kurama wouldn't show. His movements seemed untrained and sloppy, not to mention he was raising his fist against a woman. Even when faced with the best of the best female heroes, Kurama never once raised a hand against... not just women, but anyone. Combined with Naruto's genuine-looking confusion, he was more and more sure that they were wrong.

"Damn… he is good." Midnight said what everyone else was thinking, jaws hitting the floor all over the room as the group watched on in silent awe, not that she could blame them. She knew without a doubt that Naruto was actually Kurama and yet even she was starting to question whether or not he was.

The boy just seemed so genuinely surprised by the accusations and different than his villainous persona that none of them could picture them as the same person.

"Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that Naruto is an incredibly skilled actor," Setsuna stated, giggling at the stunned looks on everyone else's faces. "Back in middle school the drama club was constantly trying to get him to join after he filled in for a friend once when they were sick."

"Okay then, let's do this buddy!" Mina hopped back and forth on her feet.

"You guys can go whenever."

'This guy has some muscle, but I'm not weak either. Come on Kurama, show me what you've got.' Mina thought as she started to skate on her acid towards Naruto. Naruto started to run at her and pulled his fist back, and he threw a punch at Mina that she dodged with ease, ducking under it and doing a little twirl with a grin on her face. Naruto stumbled forward a bit, and she pulled her fist back. "Gotcha!" Mina slammed her fist into his stomach.

"Guh!" Naruto leaned forward into the hit, spit coming out of his mouth as she lifted him off of his feet a little. Her feet touched the ground again when Mina pulled her fist back, and she hopped up into the air and kicked him in the back of the head. Naruto stumbled forward holding the back of his head in visible pain. "Ah!"

Mina spun around Naruto when he swung at her desperately, and she pulled back her fist with a grin.

She punched him right in the nose, and knocked him clear off his feet with a bloody nose, onto his back.

"""Oooooh…"""

Everyone, even Mirko, hissed in sympathy at the completely one-sided beat down the blonde had gotten. As if to rub it in, that last punch was played in slow motion, showing Naruto's face wobble and contort from the impact as blood sprayed from his lips and nostrils before he flopped to the ground like a ragdoll.

"Yes! I did it, I beat Kurama! I won, I beat him, and he wasn't even able to do anything... to... me..." Mina looked down at the unconscious boy that she just beat up. She saw his nose bleeding, and his eyes rolled into the back of his head.

'He's...' Deku started to think when he saw that Naruto seemed genuinely knocked out.

You did not fake being knocked out.

'... not Kurama...' Tsuyu thought when she saw something similar to Deku. She had watched the entire fight, and nothing about it seemed like it was being faked for the sake of making them believe that he wasn't Kurama. Tsuyu watched as Momo walked forward and looked down at Naruto for herself, and she put her fingers next to his neck, and she lifted his hand up and watched it fall limply.

"Fuck… even I cant believe he's Kurama after that." Mirko muttered under her breath while Midnight, the only one to hear her, nodded her head with a grimace.

"I'm pretty sure that was the idea."

Momo frowned a little.

"... Ah shit... we are so sorry for calling him Kurama, is he going to be okay?" Sero asked as he walked forward to try and help Naruto.

Nemuri waved them off with a smile.

"It's okay, Naruto will be okay. Naruto can't be Kurama, because Naruto recently got mugged by a villain and put into a really bad condition. Kurama would never get mugged by a high school girl." Nemuri explained as she walked over to Naruto and leaned down, picking him up. Tsuyu and Deku winced when they saw Naruto completely limp on the ground, his head in a position that an awake person couldn't easily make their head go.

"Ah, that's right, creepy girl gave you the perfect reason not to believe he could be Kurama." Now it made sense to Shoto why their teacher had insisted on having Mina fight Naruto to prove his innocence. She had seen him after he'd gotten the shit beaten out of him and forced him to admit that it had been only a single highschool girl that'd done it too him, but not knowing that said girl was so far the only one who could get passed Naruto's super awareness.

All she knew was that her adopted son got beat up by a girl his age which would never happen to Kurama.

He seemed genuinely knocked out.

"He's knocked out... his pulse is slow, and he isn't showing any response... he isn't Kurama." Momo stood up straight and said with a straight face. "Will he be okay, is there anything we can do to apologize for suspecting him." Momo's face was straight even when she said this.

"I'm sorry... Kurama shows abilities that were like mine... so I just thought... I'm really sorry. I didn't mean for Naruto to get hurt." Tsuyu was visibly saddened by both the fact she was wrong, and the fact that Naruto got so hurt. Nemuri was using the sleeve of her sweater to wipe the blood from Naruto's nose carefully.

He was out like a light.

The Kurama who got ran over by a truck and a car, and kept on going, would never be knocked out by something like that. Mina was a strong girl, stronger than most of the boys in the class easily, but if Naruto was really Kurama, then her punch wouldn't have knocked him out this easily.

"I wonder how he did that?" It was clear to Midnight that Naruto was genuinely unconscious, but there was just no way Mina could have actually hit him hard enough to render him out cold in just one blow like that. The boy was simply too durable.

"Perhaps he figured out how to willingly induce hibernation." Tsuyu suggested, since going into hibernation would be effectively the same thing as being unconscious.

Momo looked at everyone.

"I'm horribly sorry!" Deku bowed to Nemuri and Naruto, though he was knocked out.

"Yeah... we really thought he was Kurama." Sero was apologetic as well.

"I'll buy him a really nice lunch at the lunchroom tomorrow to say sorry!" Mina put both of her hands together and practically pleaded for forgiveness. Tsuyu had already apologized, but she kept bowing low.

Momo frowned.

' ... He really is Kurama... but now I'll sound crazy if I tell anyone. He's turned everyone into a witness that he really isn't Kurama. If I explain what he did, then I'll sound like a conspiracy theorist...' Momo thought as she examined everything that had happened. Momo looked at Naruto, and she couldn't help herself, but a challenging smile came over her face for a moment.

"Oh, what's this?" Setsuna's brow rose a little in interest. "Did someone notice something that everyone else missed?"

"Don't ask me." The rich girl in question said with a shrug, not sure what had made her other self so confident despite Naruto's flawless act.

Naruto really knew how to manipulate people.

Now, nobody would believe her if she claimed he was Kurama, because they had seen with their own eyes proof that he was not Kurama. She even figured out how he had faked his own loss like that.

"Right, she actually checked him out after he went down." There must've been something the ravenette noticed when she examined him that could only have been seen up close.

-Later that Night-

"Aaaaaaaaah... my nose feels like it's fucking broken, that girl hits fucking hard." Naruto shouted when he woke up rolling off the couch and onto the floor, holding his nose dramatically. He wasn't lying, that girl could really throw a punch, and she really did break his nose. He should have reduced the impact by flying backwards, but with Deku and Momo watching the fact, he couldn't afford to make himself appear even slightly skilled.

He had to make himself look genuinely unskilled and sloppy.

"And a damn fine job he did at that, I've seen toddlers fight better than he did during that." Mirko said as she crossed her arms with a conflicted frown. On the one hand she did enjoy seeing the blonde finally get a well earned beatdown for all the trouble he'd cause, but on the other it only happened because he wanted it to happen meaning he still won.

Not to mention that she should have been the one to lay him out on his ass!

He even built up a massive amount of lethal poison in his mouth, and swallowed it when Mina possibly broke his nose. He gave himself a massive amount of his own poison, so large was the amount that not even he was immune to it. With his own poison, he knocked himself out, because he knew that no matter how badly he fought they could assume that he was just faking it. He needed to actually lose the fight, and be turned into Mina's bitch for it. He needed to do something that would turn all of the people who saw the fight into witnesses that he and Kurama were not the same person.

"Ooooh, poisoning himself right as Mina landed a punch so by all appearances she knocked him out cold, that is clever," Mei rubbed her chin. "The guy can really think on his feet, I wonder if he could help me with some baby I've been stuck on?"

"Only if you buy him and me dinner first." Setsuna said with a snicker-

"Oh, okay, do you guys like sandwiches?"

"…Ah forget it." Wasn't any fun to tease if she didn't get a reaction.

So getting his ass kicked and knocked out in an utterly humiliating fashion, a way that Kurama would never allow to happen (while also throwing a punch at Mina) would settle it for them once and for all that he wasn't Kurama. He didn't know how they had figured him out, but he was amazed by them.

'Those kids are pretty good... they actually figured me out... but I'm not somebody who can be caught that easily. Just figuring out my Quirk? Heh... this makes this more fun.' Naruto thought to himself as he kept his pained expression when Nemuri came to him and started to make sure his nose was okay.

With the Pro Heroes starting to ignore him, being a villain had become... unfun for the most part, but people his own age had figured him out. The Pros weren't even close to figuring him out, or even catching him.

Things were getting fun.

Oh, not just fun... they had challenged him, they unknowingly just issued him a challenge, and he was willing to play this game. Based on the fact that Nemuri was genuinely concerned for him, he could tell that the students had bought his display of weakness. Now though, since they figured him out and he still beat them, he was going to have to rub it in their faces somehow. Actually, he needed to do more than that, he needed to further reinforce the fact that Naruto and Kurama weren't the same person to them... but he also needed to leave behind a clue that if they were smart, they had a chance to figure out his secret.

After all, where was the fun without a little risk.

"Oh no… I think we just made things way worse for ourselves." Momo muttered, already dreading what Kurama was planning that he considered 'fun'.

"Yup, ribbit."

Also... OW!

He was going to prank Mina so hard, because he was sure that she might have actually broken his nose with that last punch.

"I feel bad for Mina," Shoto said as the projection went back to buffering. If switching the boys and girls clothes was a normal prank, he didn't want to know what a revenge prank at Naruto's hands was. "I don't know about you but I need a break, I'm gonna go stretch my legs."

Not waiting for anyone else to say anything, the icy hot quirked boy got up and left.

"He's got the right idea, hey Tsu, you mind carrying me down to the cafeteria?" Setsuna asked, doing her best puppy dog eyes just to be safe, getting the frog girl to croak softly.

"Should we do something about your body first? Ribbit."

"Nah, Naruto will deal with it when he gets back. He knows how to get rid of my body legally."

"That sounds very disturbing out of context. You coming Momo?"

"Yeah… sure," The creation girl muttered, figuring she could use the distraction before her brain drove her crazy. Already it was conjuring up various scenarios that her other self might have to deal with now that they'd poked the proverbial sleeping beast.

And just like that they were gone, leaving just Mirko, Midnight, and Mei…

No wait Mei wandered off too, slipping free of Mirko's legs as the bunny heroine was distracted and waltzing away, probably to get more materials for her tinkering.

"I told you they wouldn't bust them." The bunny heroine said smugly, to which her fellow pro-hero rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, yeah, you sure did stinky."

"OI!"

-Meanwhile-

Atop a rooftop of a building that had a perfect view of UA High in the distance we find the hoodie-clad teen and white haired Nruto sitting by the railing. The pair were still enjoying their ice-cream as the former flipped through a book.

"Well, it looks like everything is going along like it should be," The masked blonde said, idly adjusting his gasses as he skimmed through several in his book before snapping it shut with a chuckle. Tucking it away inside his sweater, he pulled down his mask revealing that he too was a Naruto as he licked his ice cream cone. "Pretty soon it'll be time for the big surprise, huh SKU?"

[Indeed] SKU 'said' with a little index card before scribbling down more on the other side. [But for now Writer, you have a debt to repay to me for dealing with your problem with PPP]

"I know," The now named Writer sighed as he looked up at the sunset. "Thanks for that by the way, I was really getting tired of all the tentacle plants in my garden, and the slimes that looked like sewage being left in the toilets, and don't even get me started on the-"

[Stop stalling]

The older Naruto flinched when the card with those two words was shoved into his face. "Right, right, well as soon as your wife gets here I-"

Once more Writer was cut off, this time by a rip in reality forming off to the side, literally cut open by an etheric blade. From this gash stepped forth a blue eyed whitette who looked to be the same age and wore similar armor to SKU.

[Hello Yu] [Hello Naruto] SKU and his fellow whitette 'said' to each-other as the new arrival took a seat next to her male counterpart.

"You guys did that on purpose, didn't you?" The spectacled blonde asked with a deadpan that only grew when the white haired pair held up matching 'thumbs up' emoji signs. Rolling his eyes with a sigh, Writer flicked his hand to summon forth a new book, one that had an orange cover and a red spiral in the middle along with a quill. Flipping it to a seemingly random page, he tapped the tip of the quill against his tongue before holding it to the paper. "…So just to double check, this is what you want right? You're not gonna suddenly change your mind and break my arm when I do this?"

[If you keep stalling I will break both of your arms regardless]

"Noted," Writer muttered with a nervous smile before quickly jotting something down. "Aaaand done, the two of you are officially banned from this world. Now to see if it worked."

Both SKU and Yu just looked at the older looking whiskered teen after he said that, their emotionless gazes boring into him. Sweat slowly started to bead up on Writer's brow as the seconds ticked by, a constantly building tension as he smiled awkwardly.

…

…

…

"Swift Kick in the Balls."

"Grk!?" Spittle flew from Writer's mouth and his eyes went cross-eyed before he doubled over while clutching his groin.

[I don't think it worked]

"Me… either…"

-End Chapter-
