Chapter 22: Ordinary Classes/Hero Clashes

-The Transparent World-

Izuku stood in the void with his eyes closed listening to everything he can. He can hear the sound of thunder striking in almost every direction. The sword in his hand isn't Rengoku's blade nor is it his father's. In a swift motion he unsheathes the sword and it clashes against Zenitsu's blade in a loud crack of thunder. The force is so strong that Izuku is sent flying back about fifteen feet.

"You are trying to force thunder breathing Izuku. The breath requires you to be in a state of calm. Use total concentration to focus on all the muscles and blood vessals in your legs."

Jigoro says to him as he pours a cup of tea. The training to learn thunder breathing is slowly getting better for the boy. Jigoro has been training him to get faster so that he can start to learn the techniques. He slowly gets up, using his new blade to hold his weight from falling. The sword is a nichirin blade based on the metal changing from silver to black when he picked it up.

As he stands up Izuku gets into a stance that Iroh showed him. Despite the man not knowing any breathing styles he does know different sword fighting styles. Izuku raises the blade with both hands and bends his arms to it's close to his head and the tip of the blade is pointing at Zenitsu. The blonde man looks at the stance in interest and gets into his own stance. The man crouches with his head lowered and legs spread.

Izuku watches the man and tries to burn the image of the stance into his memory. Zenitsu slowly lets out a breath through gritted teeth. The boy notices that the exhale almost sounds like a hissing noise. In an instant the man in yellow vanishes with a loud crack of thunder. Izuku is still baffled at how fast the man is.

Just like the blonde man did, Izuku crouches down while spreading one leg forward and the other back. He lowers his head and closes his eyes as he holds the blade as though it were sheathed by his side. He takes a breath while focusing on his leg mucles. He can feel the blood pumping faster in his legs as he exhales making the same hissing noise as Zenitsu. In a crack of thunder the greenette vanishes

-Izuku's Room-

Izuku snaps awake due to the technique's loud thunder clap. The boy still doesn't understand how training in his 'dreams' is actually helping him in the real world. The results are very clear from how much better he is getting after a nights rest. Sometimes he feels like it's cheating, but he just tells himself it's part of his quirk. He gets out of bed and does a few stretches to loosen up.

The thought of going to his first classes at U.A have him excited. The sun hasn't risen yet leaving the boy's room in darkness. Figuring that he should get ready now, Izuku grabs his school uniform and heads to the bathroom. After a quick shower and getting dressed he heads into the kitchen to see him mom getting breakfast ready. She is making pancakes with sausage and eggs.

After breakfast Izuku grabbed his bag and gave his mother a hug before heading to the train station. The walk wasn't that eventful except for seeing the stores and shops opening up. Once at the station he takes a seat and waits for the usual train to arrive. To pass the time he searches the Internet for any hero news he might've missed. The train arrives and he smiles at the thought of seeing Kyoka again.

Once on board he searches for purple hair and long earlobes. He doesn't see her at first but he suddenly feels a tap on his shoulder like last time. The sight of Kyoka made Izuku smile as he also saw her smiling at him. She raises her fist up to him and he fist bumps her. They both sit down while other people leave and board the train.

"Nice to see you again green."

She says happily to him. One of her jacks in plugged into her phone to which he finds interesting. Thankfully he remembered to take a few extra blank notebooks with him today for quirk analysis.

"Nice to see you as well Kyoka. Are you ready for classes today? I'm excited to see which hero teachers we get."

He says passionately while looking at her with sparkles in his eyes. This causes her to hold back a giggle but nods instead agreeing with him. They make small talk over what they think the classes will be like.

-U.A Gate Entrance-

Izuku and Kyoka walk up to the entrance gate along with other students. They see similar faces from yesterday and some of their classmates also arriving. Since Aizawa was quick to get the physical tests done most of the students didn't get a chance to introduce themselves to one another so Izuku and Kyoka could only wave and smile awkwardly. It helps that the other students didn't know what to do other than the same thing.

The pair make it to the homeroom with a few other students following. They take their seats and wait for the rest of class to show up. Izuku can see the yellow sleeping back behind the teacher's desk but doesn't say anything. Slowly the rest of the students enter the class with everyone making small talk. Ochako and Tenya walk through the door talking about the classes.

When all the students arrive the sleeping bag is heard unzipping and Aizawa climbs out of it. Most of the students are still weirded out about the man sleeping like that but don't say anything. He stares at the class and all the talking that was happening a moment ago comes to a complete silence.

"You all are getting better at shutting up quicker. Good job."

The whole class sweat drops at hearing the man say that. Katsuki has a noticeable tick but keeps his mouth shut surprising Izuku. The teacher then pulls down a whiteboard over the chalkboard and begins to write on it. When he is done the words 'trial of battle' are written on the whiteboard making most students raise an eyebrow. Izuku can practically feel the excitement radiating off of Katsuki along with seeing that sadistic grin on the blonde's face.

"Today after your normal general education classes you all will be paired in twos and put against one another in a controlled battle. When the last G.E class is done meet back in this room for hero training class."

The man says in a tired tone while folding up the sleeping bag. The class is buzzing with whispers among themselves as Izuku takes out one of his notebooks and lables it 'U.A quirk analysis #1.' Kyoka watches his for a moment and walks over to his desk to see what he is doing. Izuku writes down information on their homeroom teacher Shota Aizawa a.k.a The Eraser Hero Eraser Head. She reads the notes that he quickly writes down with an impressed look. Izuku lookd up from his writing and sees her who looks back at him.

They stare at each other for a moment before the bell rings, snapping them out of their trance. Izuku looks away while Kyoka looke around the room both trying to hide their red faces. They follow the rest of the students to their first class of the day which is English. The students enter another class and take their seats just like homeroom. A blonde man wearing sun glasses with his hair in a odd style enters the classroom while shouting his greeting.

"Good morning listeners! Who's ready to get educated!"

The whole class nearly jumps up in surprise at seeing the hero who is going to teach them English. Izuku nearly faints at seeing one of his favorite heroes as a teacher. Even Katsuki is impressed at seeing the radio hero. The man takes a chalk stick and starts to write the lesson on the board.

-After the G.E Classes-

The day went by in a breeze for Izuku because he loves to learn. After English class they went to math which was taught my Ectoplasm, then modern literature by Cementoss, followed by history with Midnight. The excitement from seeing different heroes teach them normal classes made Izuku giddy with how much of a fanboy he is. He had to keep reminding himself to breath whenever he got lost in one of the lessons. He sat back in the homeroom class waiting for everyone else to arrive for the last course of the day, hero class.

He takes out his notebook and opens to where he left off on Kyoka's notes. The girl's quirk has peaked his interest and he's come up with a few ways that she can use it on the field. Something else has also been on the boy's mind for a while. He can't explain it but the way she looks at him makes him feel like he could do anything. He smiles to himself as he subconsciously jots down more ideas for her.

Aizawa enters the class and sees Izuku lost in thought while writing. Rolling his eyes, the man walks over to his desk and climbs into his sleeping bag for the break between classes to end. Ten minutes later the doors burst open making Izuku jump in surprise with a little yelp. Ochako walks into the class and smiles widely at seeing the person she has been looking for. She quicky makes her way towards Izuku who is currently trying to catch his breath.

"Hey Deku, Tenya and I have been looking for you. What are you doing here so early?"

She asked in a bubbly attitude. Izuku smiles at her awkwardly and shrugs his shoulders a bit. He quickly closes his notebook much to Ochako's disappointment who tried to take a peak at what he's writing.

"Hehe, sorry about that. I'm usually used to being by myself most of the time. It's a force of habit."

He says while avoiding eye contact with her. Izuku didn't really think about it till now but Katsuki really messed up his social life and skills. Ochako notices the look on his face and and wonders what's bothering him. Before she can say anything the door opens again to show a few more students walk in. Izuku recognizes them to be Denki Kaminari, Minoru Minetta, and Mashiroa Ojiro. Aizawa sits up in his sleeping bag and let's out an annoyed yawn.

The rest of the students arrived in the class before the break ended. Aizawa stood in front of the class while sucking on a juice pouch. The bell rang signaling the start of hero training. The man tosses the pouch into the trash and walks to the whiteboard with a marker. He writes down 'Go Beyond Plus Ultra.'

"This school has three years to turn you all into pro heroes, so I will not sugarcoat things. Like yesterday I expect all of you to put everything into what you do here. I will not tolerate any slackers or you will be removed from the hero course."

He said blunty while activating his erasure quirk. Every student in the room felt a sense of vulnerability after realizing they can't feel their quirks. Before Aizawa could say more a familiar large man rushes into the room so fast it looked like he just appeared. Izuku couldn't believe his eyes. Scratch that, all the students couldn't believe their eyes.

"IT IS I, ALL MIGHT ENTERING LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"

All the students in the class minus the boy with red snd white hair cheered at the Symbol of Piece. Bakugo has a big feral like grin on his face at seeing the man. Izuku has stars in his eyes at seeing his idol in the flesh. Then he hears something that shatters his heart. He can hear the way that All Might is breathing. The hero is seriously hurt and struggling with keeping up his appearance.

"Is that his silver aged hero suit?"

A random student asks making almost everyone agree. Izuku quickly hides the shock on his face and focuses on what is about to happen. Aizawa looks at All Might with an annoyed expression and sighs.

"You're early All Might."

He says in s tired voice making All Might look at him with a sweat drop. The big man bows to the homeless looking man and apologizes loudly. Aizawa waves his hand and All Might coughs a bit and looks back at the students. Izuku despite knowing the truth still can't help but be just as excited as most of the other students at seeing the number one hero be in their presence.

"Hello young heroes! I will be your hero course teacher along with Mr. Aizawa to help me. Pro heroes are trained to handle any situation smartly and not rash! You all will be competing in two on two training battles in a bomb scenario!"

The class is buzzing with excitement at hearing the training leason. Katsuki stands uo in pure joy and laughs loudly. All the students look at the blonde as he points at all of them.

"Hahaha, so who's going down against me, huh?!"

All Might looks at Katsuki with the same smile that he gives everyone. The man can see that the kid is someone arrogant but passionate. Izuku looks at Katsuki and he looks back. Izuku keeps his gaze on the other boy for a moment before looking away. The class ignores him much go Katsuki's annoyance.

"Well young Bakugo the battles will be selected randomly so that no advantage can be made!"

Izuku nods in understanding the method of choosing at random. He can here the questions being asked on why they couldn't form their own team. He raises his hand and everyone looks at him.

"It's because in a real situation that involves a chase or fight you don't know who you will be teaming up with."

The greenette says matter of factly. He may be socially stunted but his love of knowledge and hero work seems to override it. Most of the students nod in agreement while Katsuki glares at him. All Might looks at Izuku with interest and laughs loudly.

"That is correct young Midoriya! You never know who is near or who will arrive first. This exercise will help you to think on the fly and build teamwork."

The man reveals a remote in his hand and clicks a button. The walls of the class open up revealing many cases numbered one to twenty. All Might spreads his arms and smiles widely while hiding a cough that Izuku can hear.

"Grab the case that has your desk number and check your hero costumes! We got all your submission ideas and had the support department do their best to create your vision!"

Izuku, along with everyone else grabs their case and goes backfo their desk. He remebers sending in his ideas on a hero costume that will be able to handle his fire and lightening abilities. He also sent in a request on a specially made sword that he can generate his quirk through. Aizawa walks up to Izuku carrying another case that looks similar to the case that held his fathers blade.

"Before I give you this you and I will have a training session on sword handling. But I will allow you to inspect it for now."

He takes the case from the man and outs it next to the other. After a second he opens both cases and and nods with a grin.

"Oh yeah, this is what I'm talking about."
