It's time for next chapter of Project Velocity. Last time Izuku and Ochaco faced off against Momo and Shinsou, now it's time for the rest of the fights. This chapter will be the rest of the fights, so it's time to see what other kind of choas will occur under the supervision of All Might.

As always I do not own MY HERO ACADEMIA or any of their characters.

With that let's begin with a bang.


After the show of the first match, many members of Class 1-A didn't think their fights were going to be as impressive. Even more so after the second match, which was called out for Todoroki and Tokoyami to be the villains while Shoji and Ilda were chosen as the heroes. The two pairs left to their designated building and while it was obvious Ilda and Shoji were hard at work coming up with a plan, Todoroki and Tokoyami hadn't said a word to each other. The rest of the class talked about how important teamwork and communication were for this exercise.

When All Might announced the start of the fight, Ilda and Shoji moved to head inside. Only to stop when the sound of ice suddenly cracked through the area and the next second the entire building was covered in ice. Everyone jumped up in surprise, Todoroki had covered the entire building in ice. All the entrances, doors and windows, were blocked.

All Might sweat dropped a bit and asked, "YOUNG ILDA, YOUNG SHOJI ARE YOU ABLE TO CONTINUE?"

Not knowing which answer to give, Shoji drew back his fists and punched the ice, while Ilda began kicking it. They continued to hammer away at the ice, yet after two minutes they had barely gotten through the door. All Might moved a camera down to look through the open door, as the ice had taken out all the cameras that were inside. Class 1-A was met with a frozen nightmare. Spikes covered the floors and walls, with the thinnest being a foot thick. It had taken Ilda and Shoji two minutes to get through the first door, how were they possibly going to get through the hallway within the time limit?

Ilda turned away from the door and said in a downtrodden tone, "We surrender."

All Might nodded and turned away from the monitor, "HERO TEAM HAS BEEN BARRED FROM ENTERING, VILLAIN TEAM WIN. LET THIS BE A LESSON THAT VICTORY MAY NOT ALWAYS BE POSSIBLE AND SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO STEP BACK AND LET A HERO WITH A MORE SUITABLE QUIRK TAKE OVER." Class 1-A nodded, but even with his helmet still on everyone could see how down Ilda was.

After Todoroki thawed a way out, he and Tokoyami joined Ilda and Shoji in heading back to the observation room. There was no question who the MVP of the round was and All Might quickly continued to the next round.

Kaminari and Aoyama were called the heroes while Mina and Koda were called the villains. And the problems from the last round were evident in this fight as well. Mina tried to form a plan with Koda, however, the silent Ani-voice user only spoke in sign language and gesture, languages Mina didn't understand at all. On the flip side, Aoyama was responsive but it was so sideways that Kaminari had no idea if it pertained to the plan or if Aoyama was complimenting himself on his costume.

In a small moment before the fight occurred, Kaminari grabbed one of the whiteboards that were scattered outside the school building. He also managed to find a marker, he then proceeded to write something and then held it up to the camera. Written on the whiteboard was a single word, "Help." and an arrow pointing at Aoyama. A crackle went through the observation room as All Might hit the intercom button and said, "ROUND 3, BEGIN."

The resulting fight was strange, to say the least. While Kaminari and Aoyama slowly made their way through the school building, Mina began skating around looking for them. All the while Koda refused to leave the room where they hid the bomb, which consequently was the principal's office. Unlike the previous fight, the heroes and villains did cross paths, and unlike the first round, it wasn't a very prolonged fight.

Mina managed to get the drop on the two heroes while they were entering the cafeteria. She started by attacking Aoayam and spraying him down with Acid, though her attack barely touched him it got all over his cape. Aoyama froze as he looked down at his cape, and then he proceeded to let out a scream that was the definition of a textbook middle school girl. After screaming for 15 seconds, he passed out.

Moving past that, Kaminari tried to get in close to shock Mina. He managed to shock Mina, but that resulted in her producing a high amount of acid that spread around her. As Mina passed out from the shock and fell to the floor, Kaminari's feet hit the ground which was now a pile of sludge. The moment Kaminari's feet hit the ground, he lost his balance and slipped. As he fell he yelled and then hit the side of his head on a chair, knocking himself unconscious.

All Might gave a nervous chuckle, in all his years of being a pro hero, he had never seen anything quite like that. On the other hand, Bakugo and Izuku grinned as they had done stupider things when sparring with Takami went too far.

All this meant Koda was the only one still conscious, so All Might said, "UH, DUE TO UNFORESEEN EVENT, I GUESS VILLAIN TEAMS WINS."

"All Might, sir, permission to get a recording of them. That was f432kng hilarious." Baakugo requested while Kirishima and Izuku shot him a glare. Yet they along with the rest of the class had to admit that it was pretty funny and would it be amazing to rewatch weeks down the road.

While Koda walked back to the observation room, after All Might assured him that no one was going to attack him, medical robots came and took the three unconscious students to Recovery Girl's office.

Then after three bizarre fights, All Might was presented with a fight that he could use to teach a lesson. That was until the end. The fight was between Tsuyu and Hagakura as the heroes versus Sato and Jirou as the villains. Going into the fight, Sero and Jirou were cautious about Hagakura's invisibility quirk. Sato and Jirou then showed they had a good understanding of their opponent's quirk as they began to put one thing around the room that Hagakura could accidentally knock over.

Jirou stacked tin cans just out of arm's reach from the bomb, while Sato set up barricades with wooden platelets he had found in the surrounding room.

"STUDENTS ANY THOUGHTS ABOUT YOUNG SATO AND YOUNG JIROU PLAN?" All Might asked.

Momo raised her hand and said, "It is well and sound, but so far they've only planned for one of their opponents, Hagakura. While the barricades will slow the heroes down, they don't have anything specifically against Tsuyu. Moreover the tin cans Jirou has set up aren't exactly stopping Hagakura, they're just a warning system and since they're so close to the bomb. When Hagakura knocks one over, Jirou and Sato won't have much time to stop her."

"A GOOD POINT YOUNG YAOYOROZU. THIS GOES FOR HEROES AS WELL, WHEN FACING A VILLAIN GROUP IT'S EASY TO FOCUS ON THE SO-CALLED 'BOSS' THE ONE WITH THE POWERFUL QUIRK OR THE LEADER OF THE GROUP. YET ANY QUIRK CAN BECOME USEFUL IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION." All Might said and with that, he started the fight.

Tsuyu and Hagakura were quick to enter the building, they began at the loading dock of the food bank. Tsuyu quietly lifted the metal door, just enough that Hagakura and her were about to slip under it. Once inside, the duo began to search the rooms, until Tsuyu froze. This caused Hagakure to freeze and look over as Tsuyu pointed at a distributed dirt trail on the floor.

"They're all moving to that room." Tsuyu whispered. All Might switched to a camera view that better showed the dirt trails on the floor, and everyone saw that the trails were going from all the rooms to the one that Jirou and Sato had boarded themselves in.

"NOTICE HOW YOUNG ASUI AND YOUNG HAGAKURE ARE USING THEIR ENVIRONMENT TO FIND THEIR GOAl. DOING SO CAN LEAD TO FIND HIDDEN DOORS, TRAPS AMONG OTHER THINGS. WHEN A SCOOPING OUT A VILLAIN'S HIDEOUT, YOU WON'T ALWAYS KNOW HOW LONG THEY'RE BEEN THERE, THEY COULD HAVE BUILD THEIR OWN SECURITY SYSTEM." All Might said.

Tsuyu and Hagakura crept over to the door and Tsuyu quietly cracked the door open. She looked around and once she spotted the bomb she silently closed the door. Tsuyu turned to Hagakura and said, "Sato and Jirou are inside with the bomb, but they surrounded it with tin cans. They also set up wooden platelets to block the doors"

"The tin cans are probably to stop me from running in." Hagakura said, then began to take her gloves and boots, "But it's still our best bet."

Tsuyu nodded, the girls had agreed that their best plan was for Tsuyu to distract Sato and Jirou while Hagakura snuck up to the bomb. Yet with the tin cans, if Hagakura accidentally knocked any of them over, Jirou and Sato would know where she was. Hopefully by knowing ahead of time, if Hagakura knocked one over she won't freeze.

Hagakura slipped out of her last boot and whispered, "Alright I'm ready."

Tsuyu nodded and without hesitation, she kicked the door down. With missing a skip Tsuyu stepped forwards and kicked the wooden platelets surrounding the door. The noise caught the attention of Jirou and Sato, who quickly looked over the frog quirk user.

"I've got her," Sato said as he pulled a container of sugar from his belt and downed it. Just from seeing that made the girls a bit sick to their stomach, as if any of them had eaten they won't be able to lose the weight for a year. With fuel for his quirk to use, Sato charged forward and swung a punch.

Yet Tsuyu dropped below the punch and then kicked her legs into Sato's knee. Even though her quirk gained her strong leg, when Tsuyu's legs connected with Sato's leg, it felt like she had hit a steel wall. Tsuyu quickly backed off and looked over at Jirou. The purple hair student hadn't engaged yet, meaning she was on the lookout for Hagakura

Tsuyu didn't find the time to look around for Hagakura, as Sato got in close.

While Sato continued to throw punches, Jirou began to look around trying to find Hagakura. Jirou spotted Hagakura's discarded boots and gloves, yet the villain duo had expected that. Jirou quickly plugged an earphone jack into the ground and tried to hear Hagakura's feet, yet with all the moving around Sato and Tsuyu it was to hear anything less.

Reopening her eyes Jirou, moved to plan B. After setting up the tin can and the wooden platelets, Jirou and Sato spread sawdust throughout the room. The layer of sawdust wasn't too thick, but just enough to see where Hagakura was stepping. Jirou looked around but didn't see any noticeable footprints.

Until she saw some dust move. Without hesitation, Jirou launched herself into the space above the footprints. Jirou felt herself crash into a body and she quickly wrapped her arm around the body. As Jirou hit the ground, she kept her arms wrapped around Hagakure, but then she noticed that the loop her arms were in was too big to be around Hagakura's waist.

Jirou blushed as she realized where she had grabbed her opponent and immediately screamed, "I'm sorry." Jirou quickly moved her hands down and wrapped them around Hagakura's waist. Jirou was glad she couldn't tell whether Hagakura was blushing or not.

Hagakura began to struggle against Jirou's hold, but each time her elbow hit Jirou, it told the purple-haired student where her opponents were. Hagakura hit Jirou in the side and the earphone jack user quickly grabbed the arm and tied the capture rope around her opponent's wrist.

Using Hagakure's panic and confusion, Jirou managed to get on top of Hagakure and grabbed her other arm as it made an impression in the sawdust. As Jirou tied the capture tape around Hagakure's wrist, All Might announced, "HAGAKURE HAS BEEN CAPTURE."

Tsuyu looked over at her captured opponent. Wanting to finally get a win for the hero team, Tsuyu moved around Sato and launched herself at the bomb. Jirou noticed and knowing she would be about to stop her opponent, she plugged one of her earphone jacks into the speaker on her boot and unleashed a sonic burst.

The soundwave hit Tsuyu in midair, but due to the angel, instead of sending Tsuyu off to the side, it boosted her towards the bomb. Tsuyu crashed into the side of the bomb, but that wasn't everyone's worry as Jirou's sonic burst had shaken the entire building. All four of them froze as dust fell from the roof and caused Sato to sneeze.

The following seconds were filled with anticipation as nothing happened. Then without warning the roof began to cave in, and all four of them gave out girlish screams. While everyone in the observation room looked panicked as the camera had cut out. All Might held an ear up to his earpiece and said, "YOUNG SATO, YOUNG TSUYU, YOUNG JIROU, YOUNG HAGAKURA, CAN YOU RESPOND."

All Might didn't hear anything and he began to push buttons on the control panel, yet nothing was happening. All Might could sense that the rest of Class 1-A was starting to get worried. "DON'T MOVE, WE'LL COME TO YOU." All Might then turn to Class 1-A, "TIME FOR LESSON IN RESCUE."

Most of Class 1-A froze as they weren't ready for something like this. For Izuku and Bakugo that was all they needed to hear as they began to head for the door. They were the first two out the door, with Ochaco and Shinsou behind them. Izuku and Bakugo hurried down the stairs, with Class 1-A behind them. A small dust cloud was rising in the distance and gave a direction for everyone to run into. While All Might could have easily run ahead, he figured it would be best if he stayed with the majority of Class 1-A.

This meant Izuku and Bakugo led the charge to the destroyed food bank. They hurried down the roads, passed underturned cars, and destroyed stores. Until they arrived. As the building came into view, everyone slowed down and looked down and Sero asked, "Where are they?"

No one had an answer, so everyone climbed onto the destroyed building and began searching around. While everyone did that, Izuku began walking the perimeter. He was looking for the metal door Tsuyu and Hagakura had gone through.

If Izuku was able to find it, then he would be able to retrace Tsuyu's footsteps to the room. Halfway around, Izuku found the broken and mangled metal door. Taking a step inward, Izuku began counting, retracing Tsuyu's footsteps.

When Izuku reached 125 steps, he turned to the left and saw the sign of a door frame and wooden platelets past it. Izuku took a few steps forward and then flipped his scooter down. It was still in heat signature mode and Izuku saw heat radiating from under a section " I found them. Uraraka!" Izuku called out.

Everyone looked up and over at Izuku, as Ochaco quickly ran over and saw the same sign that Izuku had looked for. She quickly crouched down and pressed her finger into a large slab of roofing. Izuku and Ochaco moved the roof slab away as more and more members of Class 1-A came over to help. Ochaco continued to remove the gravity of debris, while under Izuku's guidance Class 1-A moved around the pieces so nothing shifted too much and threatened to squish their friends.

After two minutes, Shoji moved the last section of roofing and revealed Sato. He was huddled over Jirou and Hagakura, protecting them from the caved-in roof. The three of them looked over and smiled at their classmates. Izuku slid down into the hole.

Izuku put a hand on Sato's shoulder and reached down to his arm which was still wrapped around the girls. Izuku made sure Sato was looking him in the eyes, "Hey good job, big guy."

Using his enhanced sight Izuku quickly overlooked Sato and the two girls. Sato had small cuts over his back and shoulder and he was favoring his right side, while the girls had minor bruising.

"They're going to live. Minor cuts and bruises." Izuku called out, then he noticed Sato's eyes were darting around. He was looking for something.

"Tsuyu." Sato began to say, but Izuku stopped him, "She's next. Uraraka, Tsuyu is 15 meters over."

Ochaco nodded and moved 15 meters further into the floor and began to remove the gravity of the roof. Half of Class 1-A went over to help Ochaco, while Izuku helped Sato, Jirou and Hagakura out of the hole and into the open arms of their classmates. Once Sato was pulled out, Izuku climbed out of the hole and saw that the bomb had been undercovered, yet Tsuyu wasn't found.

"Midoriya." Bakugo called out, "Frog legs ain't here."

Izuku looked over, Tsuyu was around the bomb when the roof caved in and she didn't have time to move much. Izuku looked over everyone's heat signature. Bypassing the fact Todoroki's heat signature was split down the middle of his body, Izuku walked over and looked down at the bomb. Slime Bomb weren't supposed to have that warm of a heat signature

"No, she is," Izuku then hopped down to the hole while pulling out his knife. Izuku knocked his knuckle against the bomb a few times then rammed his knife through the outer shell and pulled it down.

Izuku withdrew his knife and then pulled the hole open to show that Tsuyu was unconscious inside the bomb. All Might looked down and said, "SHE'S A SMART GIRL, SHE REALIZED THE BOMB WAS HER BEST CHANCE OF PROTECTION. SHE MUST HAVE GOTTEN THROUGH THE HOLE SHE MADE BY CRASHING INTO IT."

All Might dropped down into the hole and pulled the bomb in half. He then reached in and pulled Tsuyu out. All Might and Izuku climbed out of the hole, Sato asked, "All Might who won."

Many of Class 1-A thought Sato was so competitive he didn't care about being injured, but Izuku, Ochaco and Bakugo saw the signs of Sato going into shock. His mind was focusing on the exercise to keep himself from having a nervous breakdown. All Might always saw the sign of shock, so he said, "WE'LL DISCUSS THAT LATER, FOR NOW, WE'LL GET YOU TO RECOVERY GIRL AND HAVE HER CHECK YOU OUT."

All Might carried Tsuyu off the building, while Class 1-A followed him. On the edge of the building, medical robots had arrived to take the group to Recovery Girl. As class 1-A walked their classmates to be taken away, Bakugo turned to their teacher and asked, "Are we having the last fight?"

All Might turned to the ash-blonde bomber and nodded, "WE'LL CONTINUE WITH THE LAST FIGHT."

The remaining 13 students of Class 1-A walked back to the observation room, where Bakugo and Kirishima were called the villains while Sero and Ojirou were called the heroes. As Bakugo and Kirishima walked to the building, Kirishima tried to make a plan, but Bakugo heard nothing of it. He had been thinking about it ever since Todoroki completely froze the building during his match. The overwhelming power had shaken Bakugo, to be able to win so easily and without any emotion.

Bakugo didn't like how seemingly indifferent Todoroki was as if he didn't appreciate and value his quirk. And that kind of attitude made Todoroki prideful and that was the downfall of heroes. Bakugo was going to show Todoroki that he wasn't all-powerful.

As they walked through the front Kirishima said, "I've talked with Sero and he can shoot tape out of his elbow and use it to move objects around. Ojirou has his tail and during the assessment yesterday it looked like he had some martial arts training."

"It doesn't matter what the extra's quirks are. I'm going after Tape Dispenser, you can have Plain face, if you want." Bakugo said as he sat down in front of the bomb, "Nerd thought he was clever by using a trap. I'll show him the best victory is total defeat. They won't even get a chance to enter the building."

As the two groups prepared, in the observation room Izuku leaned over to Ochaco and said, "100 Yen says Kacchan leaves Kirishima behind to protect the bomb, while he goes ahead to fight Sero and Ojirou alone."

"I'll do you one better, both Bakugo and Kirishima leave the bomb behind. 1,000 yen." Ochaco said.

"YOUNG MIDORIYA AND YOUNG URARAKA, IT ONE'S UNDOING TO BET ON SUCH A THING." All Might said, in a stern voice that didn't have any power behind it, but it still got the class's attention.

Everyone looked to see what Izuku's remark would be, but he just looked All Might in the eyes and said, "Look me in the eyes and tell me that again, but first let me remind you of All Might's super-charged O's cereals June to July 2030."

All Might froze as he recalled the incident. He tried to look Izuku in the eyes and repeat himself, but he couldn't. That took everyone by surprise and Momo asked, "What happened with All Might's super-charged O's cereals?" That was a concern that overcame the class as most grew up eating that brand of cereal.

"About 5 years ago, All Might decided to endorse a new brand of cereal. However he did so without testing the cereal himself. Within the first two months of the cereal being released over 50 cases of near insanity were recorded, because someone on the board of the cereal company decided to use their quirk to make the cereal as addictive as cocaine. The company did their best to recall the cereal and cover up their mistake" Izuku said, then looked All Might in the eyes, "You want to try and tell me that wasn't a bet."

All Might had no comment so Mina, who had returned during the rescue operation, spoke up. "I'll put 1,500 yen that Kirishima leaves before Bakugo." She had been very confused when she came back to the room only to find it empty. Recovery Girl told her class was still going on.

"I say Sero and Ojirou win. 1,000 yen." Shoji said.

Seeing that Class 1-A was giving their own bet, Izuku decided to give a serious bet, "I change my bet. 2,000 yen, Kacchan and Kirishima will both leave the bomb behind. Kacchan will go after Sero, leaving Kirishima to go after Ojirou. The fight will be over in under three minutes and Kirishima will capture his opponent a few seconds before Kacchan does."

That was a very specific bet so Ochaco asked, "Anyone want to get more specific than that?" To no surprise, everyone shook their heads. A few seconds later the five minutes were over and a predicted Bakugo and Kirishima both rushed out of the room they had left the bomb in. Izuku had called it, as Bakugo went after Sero while he left Kirishima to handle Ojirou.

The moment the signal for the start of the battle went off, Bakugo jumped back onto his feet and launched himself out of the window. Using his explosion Bakugo cleared the sidewalk and landed in the middle of the road. He spotted the Sero and Ojirou and yelled, "I'm coming for you Taper Dispenser."

Both Sero and Ojirou froze once they saw Bakugo come flying out of the building. Ojirou looked at Sero and said, "I think he means you." He was more than grateful that the explosive ash-blonde was not going after him.

"Kirishima is still in the building, so watch out for him," Sero said, as he shot a strand of tape and took off in a high-speed chase. Sero was quite versed in swinging around using his tape, his family had a forestry backyard that he enjoyed playing in. Yet while Sero was self-taught, Bkaugo had formal training, he knew how to optimize his speed. This allowed him to stay right on Sero's heel and with each explosion the taper user could feel the heat

Sero looked over his shoulder and saw the look in Bakugo's eyes. The ash-blonde was solely focused on him, and Sero could use that to his advantage. He would lead Bakugou on a chase, while Ojirou would deal with Kirishima and capture the bomb. That was if Sero could stay ahead of his opponent and when how close each explosion sounded Sero began to doubt he would be about to do so.

As Sero swung around the mock city, he thought about how he could capture Bakugo in his tape, but that idea was quickly cut short. He had risked a few seconds to try and wrap Bakugo in some tape, though only managed to pin his right arm to his side. However, Bakugo was quick to blast and burn the tape with his other arm. As Bakugo caught himself in the air, he shot a glare at Sero, warning the tape user that wasn't going to work again.

So Sero switched back to staying ahead of Bakugo and led him away from the building, hoping Ojirou could handle Kirishima and capture the weapon. But that was easier said than done, as it took Sero's full concentration to stay ahead, to barely stay out of Bakugo's reach. But Bakugo was starting to figure out Sero's timing and began to gain ground.

Within a minute and a half, Bakugo caught up to Sero and blasted him in the back. Sero cried out as he was ripped from his line. Thinking fast Sero shot out a strand of tape, but Bakugo was quicker and grabbed the tape before it could attach to anything. With a small explosion, Bakugo burned the tape, leaving Sero to crash into the ground.

Luckily he was only two feet off the ground when Bakugo cut his line, so he didn't have far to fall. When he hit the ground, the air was forced out of his lungs. With a groan, Sero began to try and get back onto his feet. He was seeing double and his ears were starting to ring from the explosion that had caught his back.

Yet Bakugo wasn't finished, he wanted total victory. So with an explosion, Bakugo shot down and rammed an elbow into Sero's back. Sero's body convulsed then he blacked out. Bakugo quickly recovered and pulled out a roll of capture tape and wrapped it around Sero's arms.

Bakugo let go of the capture tape and waited for the announcement, but the one he got didn't make him happy.

True to his word the moment the starting signal went Bakugo leapt out the window and went after Sero. Kirishima sighed as he walked away from the window and headed for the stairs. With Bakugo chasing Sero that just left Kirishima to deal with Ojirou. Kirishima took a lazy walk down the stairs to the first floor.

As Kirishima reached the bottom step of the stairs, he looked up and saw Ojirou coming in through the front door. As soon as Bakugo leapt out of the window Kirishima sighed and walked over to the stairs. Ojirou shifted into a martial stance and looked Kirishima over, "I'm guessing I can't get you to surrender.

Kirishima brought up his hand and transformed his entire upper body, "Nope." With a yell, Kirishima charged forward.

Ojirou held his hands and tail up defensively, but it did nothing against the momentum Kirishima had generated. Ojirou tried to hold his ground by the moment Kirishima crashed into him, Ojirou quickly lost his footing. Kirishima's tackle sent the two of them through the doorway and back into the streets.

As they began to roll, Kirishima let go of Ojirou and rammed an elbow into the ground. This stopped Kirishima, while Ojirou continued to roll away. As Ojirou got to his face, Kirishima jumped up and kicked at Ojirou's midsection. Yet before Kirishima's foot connected, Ojirou's tail came up and blocked the attack. Ojirou then wrapped his tail around Kirishima's foot and threw it across the street.

Kirishima quickly activated his quirk over his entire body and crashed into a wall. With a perfect Kirishima-shaped hole, the red-haired students became stuck into the wall. Kirishima blinked his eyes to refocus and saw Ojirou running back inside.

Kirishima refused to let Ojirou win, so with a yell, Kirishima pulled himself out of the wall. Hitting the ground and cracking it, Kirishima fell to his hands and knees. Reactivating his quirk, Kirishima closed his hand into a fist, scaring the ground in the process. With a grunt, a barely noticeable glow began to line the cracks throughout Kirishima's hardened body.

As his back cracked a bit in pain, Kirishima got to his feet and looked through the open doorway and up the stairs. If he was going to win, he had to stop Ojirou from finding the bomb. With a yell, Kirishima took off running back inside the building.

Kirishima found Ojirou on the second floor looking for the bomb. Not worrying about a sneak attack, Kirishima charged forward. With the thundering footsteps, Ojirou was able to turn around and swing his tail at Kirishima. Kirishima tanked the attack, with only being pushed back a bit with his feet craving trenches in the floor. Yet Kirishima wasn't deferred and charged forward again, this time dodging the initial attack, but the second hit.

Yet Kirishima still refused to give up, he was going to be a hero. He was going to shoulder the responsibility that meant. And his first step towards that was never backing down again. Kirishima yelled as he rushed forward again. This time changing tactics, Kirishima dropped to the floor to dodge Ojirou's tail and swept Ojirou's feet out from under him. Ojirou hit the ground and Kirishima jumped on top of him, pinning Ojirou's arms to the ground. Ojirou tried to attack with his tail, but Kirishima locked it within his legs,

Ojirou tried to escape, trying to pull his tail out, but Kirishima refused to break his hold. To get the capture tape out of his belt, Kirishima pressed an elbow into Ojirou's back and then quickly pulled out his roll of capture tape. Feeling his legs starting to slip off of Ojirou's tape, Kirishima quickly wrapped it around his opponent's wrists.

"MASHIRAO OJIROU HAS BEEN CAPTURED." All Might announced, then added a few seconds later, "HANTA SERO HAS BEEN CAPTURED. VILLAINS TEAMS WINS. RETURNED TO OBSERVATION ROOM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE."

Everyone looked at Izuku as he had been the most accurate with his bet. Izuku noticed their stares and waved their concerns away, "Keep the money, I like to bet for the fun of it. It tells me how well I know people."

"How did you know Bakugo would go after Sero?" Tokoyami asked.

Izuku looked over to Tokoyami and said, "Because Sero placed higher on Mr. Aizawa quirk assessment. Bakugo takes pride in his quirk, skills and above all else, winning against powerful opponents. By going after Sero, Bakugo marked him as the more powerful opponent."

Bakugo was the only one to return after a minute. Sero had been taken to Recovery Girl's office, while Kirishima and Ojirou elected to take a few minutes to catch their breath. Both had bruises all over their bodies. But eventually, they returned and Kirishima was named the MVP, something Bakugo wasn't too happy about. Until Izuku pointed out that if the fight had taken place in an actual city, Bakugo could have easily been ambushed by more heroes.

Then the bell rang signaling the end of class. All Might smiled and said, " PLEASE RETURN TO YOUR HOMEROOM FOR THE REMAINDER OF CLASS. NOW LET ME SHOW YOU HOW TO ESCAPE THE MEDIA LIKE A HERO." All Might posed then quickly disappeared out of the room. After a few seconds it took everyone to process everyone, the class broke into conversation as they headed back to the changing rooms

In the changing room instead of heading towards his locker, Izuku directed himself over to the shower. As he turned the water on and waited for it to heat up, Izuku began to peel off much slime from his body. As he was in the first round, the slime had dried and stuck to his body and some felt like he was waxing his body. Once he got off as much slime as possible and the water was warm enough, Izuku slipped his hero costume off and stepped into the shower.

Attacking his hair first, as the slime seemed to cling to his hair with extra strength. It took half a bottle of shampoo to get most of the slime out, and then Izuku used a brush to get the rest out. Once his hair was slime-free, Izuku cleaned the rest of his body off. After turning the shower off, Izuku wrapped himself in a towel and walked out to an empty changing room. Izuku walked over to his locker and pulled out a hair tie. Ringing as much water out of his hair, Izuku pulled his hair back into a ponytail, securing it with the hair tie. Then he pulled out his uniform and changed it.

Once he was fully dressed, Izuku stored his hero suit back into its briefcase and headed back to homeroom. As Izuku opened the day he found everyone was sitting at their desks, even though they had gone to see Recovery Girl. There were still thirty minutes left of school but neither All Might nor Mr. Aizawa were anywhere to be found. Izuku quickly walked over to the shelves and put his briefcase away. Sensing all the suits had returned, the shelves retracted themselves back.

As the shelves retracted, Izuku walked over to his desk and sat down. For the next few minutes, everyone sat in silence, but then it became clear that a teacher wasn't going to show up and conversation began to begin around the room. Izuku kept to himself by pulling out homework and beginning to work on it.

However, this time was cut when he heard a chair being slid across the foot and stopping right next to his desk. Izuku looked up and was met with Mina sitting down in her chair. Izuku looked at Mina with a simple, "Hi." and then went back to his homework.

Yet Mina wasn't done, evident by her clearing her throat. Izuku looked up and saw that she was still staring at him. She locked eyes with him and then asked, "So Midbro, does your quirk deal with your hair in any way?"

Izuku was intrigued that Mina wanted to talk about quirks, so he put his pencil down and looked at her, "It does, it's where my ammo comes from. I can create a bullet by weaving it."

"Can I see?" Mina asked. Izuku noticed some of the other students were looking over at him, so Izuku nodded and grabbed a small strand of hair from behind his ear. He began to weave it around his index finger, then once it began to solidify he rolled it back and forwards between his index and middle finger.

Once the bullet was fully formed and disconnected from his hair Izuku put the bullet on the table. Izuku began to pull his hand away but then he noticed the bullet looked a little weird. Before Mina could grab it, Izuku scooped the bullet back on and looked it over. Usually, the bullets formed from his hair were smooth as normal bullets were, but this had small bumps all over it.

Mina noticed and said, "I'm guessing you haven't had long hair for a while."

Izuku shook his head and said, "No, I've only really let it grow out in the last few months, partly because my hair grows fast, partly because my younger sister enjoys playing with it."

"Well, rule number #1 of having long hair. The first thing you need to do is dry it, and then brush it. Right, Yaoyorozu?" Mina said. Izuku looked over at Momo in time for her to pull a brush out of her backpack. Then Izuku's attention was drawn back to Mina, as she pulled out her brush, "Want some help?"

Izuku sighed and hit his head on his desk. Maybe a little harder than he meant to as a red spot quickly formed on his head and he held a hand up to his forehead. "Ow. Yeah, why not." Izuku said, as he reached back and pulled his hair tie out. Izuku fluffed his hair out and leaned his hair back.

Bakugo took that time to turn around and see Mina begin to brush Izuku's hair. " I think I got a new nickname for you nerd. Rapunzel."

Izuku could only sigh as Bakugo found a new way to torture him. But then his attention was drawn to Ochaco walking up behind and talking to Shinsou. As she walked up, she began flipping the comb around in her hand as if she were flipping a knife around. Once Ochaco was standing next to Shinsou she asked, "Can I take your seat?"

Shinsou looked around and saw that Hagakura and Momo were both walking over, both also had brushes and combs. Not wanting to be in the middle of all that, he quickly got up and walked over to talk to Kirishima, Sero and Kaminari. Ochaco then slipped into Shinsou's chair and began working on a section of Izuku's hair. Soon after Ochaco, Momo, Hagakura and Mina were all brushing Izuku hair.

As Ochaco brushed Izuku's hair, she noticed something. It appeared much longer than the last time she brushed it with Eri. Ochaco pulled out a strand of hair to full length and found it was almost an arm's length and a half, making her guess it had grown at least seven inches since the last time she joined Eri in brushing Izuku's hair. "Hey, Midoriya, Bakugo calling you Rapunzel is a little more accurate than you thought. Your hair is starting to get down to your knees."

"Um," Izuku mumbled, causing Momo to do the same as Ochaco. Judging it against her hair and with Izuku being a few inches shorter, Ochaco's estimate was close.

"She's right Midoriya, your hair is nearly a full meter. When was your last haircut?" Momo asked as the girl continued to brush Izuku's hair.

Izuku thought about it for a few seconds, "Um four months ago and I got it whack right above my shoulders." Izuku then clenched his teeth as Mina began pulling through a knot.

All the girls paused at that and Hagakura said, "Your hair grew nearly half a meter in four months." Hagakura looked at all the hair in front of her. Her hair was long too, but it barely reached her hips, not that she did much with it as no one would notice. Then there was how soft Izuku's hair felt, Hagakura didn't think hair could be so soft.

"It's a part of his quirk. To help keep him from going bald." Ochaco said and Bakugo chuckled. She finished by a section of hair and moved down further out, as she remembered back to how Izuku described the different issues that arose from his hair being altered by his quirk. The amount of shampoo he went through, how hard it was to get dirt and other stuff out of it, "But still why did you let it get this long."

"I don't know, I always thought I would look good with long hair. What's with all this question, do none of you have young sisters to do this with?" Izuku asked. He knew Ochaco was an only child, but he only met the other girls yesterday and now they were acting as if they were at a slumber party.

Mina chuckled and said, "I have two older brothers, so I never got to do anything so girly growing up."

"I have a younger brother." Hagakura answered.

"I have an older sister but we never did anything like this before," Momo said, as she dropped Izuku's hair and began brushing it again. She had to know what kind of shampoo Izuku used if he was able to keep this much hair healthy and good-looking.

"Midoriya, as long as you have long hair, you might as well accept reality. You've seen how much Eri enjoys brushing your hair." Ochaco said, then leaned in close to Izuku's ear, "Even with everything she's been through, she seems to enjoy doing that."

Izuku nodded and decided to relax and enjoy the feeling of having his hair brushed. After half an hour was up and the final bell rang everyone quickly gathered their material and left home. Izuku and Ochaco walked out together and over to Izuku's bike and Izuku drove her home. Then after a short stop by a general store, where Izuku bought some mochi, Izuku drove home

As soon as Izuku walked inside the house, he was attacked by Eri and her hugs. Izuku skillfully picked her up and held her against his hip. "Hey Eri, how was your day?"

Eri didn't smile but said, "I helped Ms. Midoriya around the house. We cleaned the entire house, then we made candy apples, then we had to clean the kitchen again." Eri then noticed the bag Izuku was carrying, "What do you have in there?"

"Some Mochi?" Izuku said, as he carried Eri to the kitchen and stored the mochi in the freezer.

"Doesn't that nice lady like mochi?" Eri said as she closed the freezer door for Izuku.

"Yeah, I made her mad during school and I want to apologize." Izuku said, as he walked over to the kitchen table and put his backpack on it, "Want to help me with homework?" Izuku already had most of his homework done, working on it any chance he had in class. Nor would Eri be able to help him, but she enjoyed doing things with him, it didn't matter what it was.

She nodded and Izuku pulled out a chair for her and together they did Izuku's homework until dinner was ready. Once dinner finished, Izuku played a few games with Eri until she got tired. Izuku smiled as he picked her up and carried her to her bed. She fell asleep in Izuku's arms, so Izuku silently laid her in bed. He began to walk away, but Eri tightly gripped his hand.

Izuku's smile fainted a bit. Eri seemed calm when she was awake, but Izuku and Inko could tell she still struggled to get past her dark past. She didn't seem bad during the day, but when she went to sleep, it became clear just how hard she was fighting. Memories of her time with Overhaul and what he did to her, came back to the surface.

Despite how tired he was, Izuku didn't pull away. He sat down on the floor, allowing Eri to hold tightly to his arm. His right hand, something Izuku didn't fail to notice, was the thing that had saved her from a monster and given her a new life. As Izuku watched over Eri, he noticed something hanging around her neck. It was a silver band that Izuku had always seen her wear, but she never let him see what ornament it held. h Now Izuku could finally see what Eri held on. The mystery of what she held so precious was no longer a mystery. Izuku gently pulled out the ornament and saw what it was. Even with the low light coming from the night light, Izuku recognized the shape and texture of the object. It was a bullet, more specifically one of his. It was the bullet he had given her as they came home from the hospital. The first thing she had been given in her new life and she made sure she couldn't lose it. Izuku gained a small smile as the stresses of life and school disappeared from his mind. He was happy to just be lying next to Eri, protecting her. And with his bullet with her at all times, he would always be protecting her


Well that was chaotic. Either the fight was so one-sided or almost everyone was nodded out. Everyone learns their baseline and see how far they have to go to get onto the same level of their stronger classmates. Then after a quick grocery run Izuku learns that Eri still has the bullet he gave her after getting out of the hospital.
