chapter 10: the USJ
"OK EVERYONE, GET ON THE BUS RIGHT NOW, make two lines.!"
"Iida seems really excited." Ochako said, while Izuku nodded, watching his friend with glasses give orders. "Calm down buddy, we still have time." Kirishima said as he patted the speedster's shoulder. "We can't, our future as heroes depends on the habits we have to gain during school." Iida countered, making the red haired boy laugh nervously with a drop of sweat from the excitement.
"Aizawa sensei said that we still have to wait, after all class B will be with us." said Izuku as he approached Iida who seemed to react to the information. "You must be right, but we still have to form two rows to order ourselves." said the speedster, Momo laughed at this, Iida laughed so right that he found it funny.
"Hey Izu... you don't have your weapons." Camie spoke making the green haired man look at her. "Well... Aizawa-sensei told me that having my weapons wasn't necessary where we were going, however he told me that my multiform staff could be carried." Izuku said, it had been a small wake-up call, having so many pulse-cutting weapons in his hero suit was an alarm for the professional quirk eraser, however Izuku had told him about how his power could also flow in his blood, but he still couldn't control it and couldn't even move it.
"hey midori, you know a student from class b right?" mina asked, making the smiling faces of momo, ochako and camie look at izuku. "yeah... yui kodai, she's really nice and she says that her class rep is the older sister of her class." izuku said, everyone or most of them were interested by this.
"Well, then you are class A?" A voice made everyone turn towards the source, the entire class saw the entire class B, in front of everyone were two students, a blond boy with a mocking smile and a girl with orange hair, tied in a side ponytail. "Hello class A, we are the best and superior class in the hero course, class B, HAHAHAHAHAHA... AGH" The blond boy was quickly silenced by a punch in the neck by the orange-haired girl. "Excuse him, he's someone strange but he's a good person." She apologized while without warning she threw the boy towards the bus that was from class B.
"strange?" most of class A thought so. "i'm itsuka kendo, representative of class b." the girl now called itsuka kendo, introduced herself to all of class a, while izuku greeted her. "i'm izuku midoriya, representative of class a." the green-haired boy said making the orange-haired girl open her eyes. "so you're the student who surpassed all might's score creating a new record." she seemed excited, the idea of a student surpassing all might's already high score was that it demonstrated a strong quirk. "yeah i think so" izuku nodded, he wasn't so used to people's surprise.
"I hope my class works as a team with yours." Momo said, Itsuka looked at the brunette and smiled at her. "Likewise, likewise." Itsuka shook Momo's hand, while the sub-representative and representative laughed. Izuku smiled at the interaction but met Yui's gaze when she caught his attention, the black haired girl with a blank expression looked him in the eyes before turning around, flaunting her heroine outfit.
Her hero costume consists of a simple red bodysuit with a white collar trim, a matching "V" pattern over her chest and around her arms, also including a short white skirt with a red design on the front, which dips so that it follows the one on her chest.
She wears plain bracelets, as well as a hat that resembles the front of a baseball cap, red in color with white U-shaped lines around the sides, with a fin-like metal piece attached at the back of the strap around her head. She has a belt at her waist, and straps around her shoulders, with what appears to be an oval-shaped gemstone placed between them on her chest, each adorned with a small pouch, containing the various nuts, bolts, and all the other small metal pieces.
the suit was showing off the curves of her body, if he could think it slightly resembled ochako's type of suit that also showed off her curvy body. "how do i look?" the black haired girl asked, izuku couldn't help but think about her butt before coming back to reality. "you look good." he exclaimed a little louder than usual. ochako looked at the girl and then looked at himself. "is she a copy of me?" a question mark appeared in his head, while camie smiled mischievously. "ohh~ clever girl hehehe."

"Midoriya-chan, I'm a direct girl." Tsuyu spoke suddenly, as she sat in front of the green-haired boy, who was talking to Camie and Kirishima. "Your quirk is very similar to All Might's." Izuku looked at her without showing emotion, if it were the boy from before, he would panic, however he had trained the control of his emotions.
"I don't think it's really like that, I woke up my quirk very late, when I was ten, I can have super strength, but when I use it at one hundred percent I break my body." Izuku said, while Tsuyu put a finger under her mouth and tilted her head in thought. "How cute." Camie said in her mind.
"Speaking of quirks, the most striking ones are Bakugou's and Todoroki's, however mine isn't like that." Kirishima exclaimed as his body stiffened. "Don't say that Kirishima, your quirk really is striking, you can be the unbreakable shield." Izuku said, while smiling at the red-haired boy. "Although Bakugou's attitude wouldn't make him that popular." Tsuyu commented.
"What did you say, frog face? I'll kill you."
"you see." tsuyu didn't flinch at the irate bakugou, izuku laughed at that. "you'd be very popular in the poll of the heroes who look like villains." kaminari exclaimed laughing, making the ash blonde growl at him like a rabid dog. "they're making fun of kacchan huh?... interesting." izuku thought while writing down some things.
"Where did he get that notebook and pencil?" thought most of the class as they watched Izuku write, even Todoroki had wondered if the green-haired boy had a secondary storage quirk.
"although i've always wondered... have you never thought about drinking human blood?" kirishima asked, those who were close to hear the conversation put their full attention. "well... i haven't thought about it, it always seemed somewhat uncomfortable to me, when my quirk awakened and i told my class, everyone did everything possible to label me as a threat." the bus was silent, they had heard the prejudice towards the villains' quirk, bakugou only looked towards the window he had remembered those last days, when his classmates did everything possible to spread false accusations towards deku, it was a situation that had still been talked about in aldera, the demon boy who almost killed some students, was one of the reasons why deku left aldera, and that his own parents did not trust the school so much. and after he left, he had heard that aldera had been the center of a police investigation, he did not know anything after that news.
"Besides... if I start drinking human blood, I'll no longer be able to get the nutrients that animal blood gives me, you literally change animal blood for human blood, and I don't think anyone would be willing to give me blood if they knew my quirk." was another reason why he wasn't convinced. "Mmm... that blonde girl, she bit your neck and I managed to notice blood, does she have a quirk similar to yours Midoriya?" Iida asked, being a speedster his sense of vision was much more accustomed to very subtle characteristics in some actions. "Not really... Himiko-chan is like that, her quirk affects her personality, at first glance she may seem like a strange girl, but if you put aside that behavior she's a good friend... something her parents couldn't see." Izuku finished while growling showing his fangs however he stopped from the furious thought.
"mmmm... i think i've heard of quirks that affect people's minds, however those cases are very rare." ochako said while thinking of some news related to that type of quirk. "yes... himiko's quirk allows her to transform into anyone, however she needs a considerable amount of blood to transform into this person, my father explained that her quirk made her like blood, however without the proper aid it would have turned himiko into a horrible girl." izuku said and smiled fondly.
"She looks more like a monstrous vampire than you." Mineta was terrified by someone like Midoriya without any shame, Izuku heard him clearly and simply remained silent, they didn't know anything and it was a good thing.
"Be quiet, we've arrived." Aizawa called everyone's attention as the driver stopped. All the students and teachers got off their respective buses, in front of the large USJ building was a hero.
She stood out with her striking outfit: a sleek white spacesuit adorned with some shiny details, complemented by a black helmet that sported expressive white eyes. The yellow boots added a vibrant touch, making her stand out even more.
"Midori, it's Thirteen, my favorite hero." Ochako seemed extremely happy as she shook the green-haired boy back and forth, who didn't seem to mind being pulled from one side to the other.
"It's good to see so much fun, as you may know I'm Thirteen, I'm in charge of teaching you about rescue work in dangerous situations." Thirteen cheered up upon seeing all the students from Class A and B. "Thirteen, where's All Might?" Aizawa asked the rescue hero, who carefully told him that All Might had lost time and would arrive later, causing Aizawa to complain about the number 1 hero's lack of logic.
"Well, it's best to go inside to begin." Thirteen encouraged the students as she headed into the USJ followed by everyone.
.
.
.
Both Class A and Class B were fascinated by everything around them, the place was large with different places that simulated each rescue situation that the heroes went into action.
"It really is USJ..." Classes 1-A and 1-B thought in unison, the name resonating with the grandeur of what awaited them.
"Everyone, I'm sure you know about my Quirk, Black Hole. I can absorb anything and turn it into dust." Thirteen said, her tone changing to something more serious as she explained her Quirk.
"You've used that Quirk to save people from all sorts of disasters, right?" Ochako asked, admiration evident in her voice.
"Yes, but it's a power that can easily kill others," she replied, her expression serious. "Some of you also have gifts like that, right?"
Most of the students looked at each other, however Izuku looked at his hands, remembering for a brief moment when he first got his powers. If he had awakened them in front of a crowd of people, it would be a completely different story.
"In a superhuman society, personal Quirks have been certified and strictly regulated, so at first glance, it may not seem like a problem. However, do not forget that many Quirks can lead to fatal outcomes with a single misstep. Through Aizawa and Vlad's fitness tests, you discovered the potential of your own hidden powers, and through All Might's one-on-one combat training, you have experienced the dangers of using those powers against others. This class is a new beginning. You will learn to harness your Quirks to save lives. Remember, you do not possess powers simply to harm others. I hope that you will leave here with the understanding that your powers exist to help those in need. That is all. Thank you for listening." Thirteen concluded her speech with a graceful bow, her sincerity shining through.
Izuku smiled slightly, however Aizawa caught everyone's attention. "Alright, since everything is ready, it's time to..." The eraser hero was interrupted when the lights in the place began to flicker, giving him an image of unrest throughout the place.
However, in the middle of the USJ a mist appeared and expanded, from the purple mist many people emerged, when the great horde of villains appeared, behind them appeared a humanoid creature with dark skin with a beak and exposed brain, its muscles were almost monstrous, to one side of it was a man, this man had several amputated hands all over his body, one covering his face.
Aizawa's eyes widened in surprise. "Gather together and don't move! Thirteen, protect the students! Vlad!"
The hero of blood simply nodded and stood next to Aizawa, the serious look on both of them raised Izuku's alarms.
Suddenly, Kirishima tensed, his instincts kicking in. "What's that?" he asked, his gaze sharpening as he sensed a disturbance in the air.
"Is this like the entrance exam, where the lesson has already started?" Kirishima asked, confusion mixing with fear.
"Don't move!" Aizawa shouted, the weight of authority in his voice as he quickly put on his yellow glasses, examining the newcomers with a fierce intensity.
"Those are villains!" Vlad King shouted, tensing his muscles as he prepared to face the impending threat.
"Kaminari, can you get through to the school?" Momo asked the blond, he tried but all he could hear was static. "I can't, something is completely preventing communications." Kaminari said.
"This isn't a normal attack, they already planned it, but how..." Izuku thought, as he looked at the crowd of villains below them. "Someone must have stolen the class schedule, however how they did it, this is bad." Izuku clenched his fists.
"Midoriya... what's your top speed?" Eraserhead looked at his student, the green haired man thought about it. "With 5% of my enhancer I can't reach high speeds, but if I move with 15%, I could exceed 45 miles per hour, however I would be constantly hurting my legs." Izuku said, even if he didn't care about hurting himself to get to the main building faster, he was more worried about his power, the more damage he did, his healing power became weaker and less effective unless he drank some blood, however he had left his blood reserves thinking that today was going to be a normal class.
Aizawa understood the repercussions of this and growled. "Fine then..." Aizawa was cut off abruptly when a person fell in the middle of everyone, Izuku reacted quickly to push Todoroki and Iida away and he took the full impact.
"Capture successful." The silent man spoke, a crazed grin plastered on his face as he felt Izuku try to push him away, but his large frame made it impossible for him to do so, even more so as his ribs were shattered from the crush and pierced his lungs.
When the man was about to grab Izuku, a kick connected with his face, causing him to fall away until he hit the group of villains that appeared in the portal. "I'm sorry... but I can't let you do that." Camie said, as she fell next to Izuku. "Are you okay, Izu?" She asked, Izuku quickly began to breathe normally. "Yes... it was... painful." was the green-haired man's answer. "That bitch." The muscular man was about to run towards the group of students, however someone grabbed him by the shoulder.
"The lord said to just test them, the capture would be ineffective in the situation." The man was shorter, with a low build and an emotionless look, his bright yellow eyes with slanted pupils looked at Izuku.
"Get the fuck out of here Derek." The muscled man growled, showing his fangs. "We don't have all the time Reiko, the protection from the sun's rays won't last forever." Derek said calmly. "Besides... it's better if you all disperse, we can't fight them together." He looked at all the students. "Hey idiot, get out of this." A villain approached Derek, annoyed by the man's calmness, however he shut up when Derek literally made his head explode in a grotesque display with just one punch. "Shut up." Was Derek's only response, the calmness was truly disturbing.
the students saw the villain's bloody end and couldn't help but shudder and widen their eyes in horror. "camie... you know it." izuku said, the honey haired girl nodded. "aizawa-sensei, they are dangerous." izuku said as he approached the eraser man, the boy's serious look made the black haired boy look at the duo. "i know, i can't make you fight those two, even if you and camie are the only ones enough to stop them." aizawa said.
Izuku growled. However, the shorter of the duo disappeared from everyone's sight and then appeared behind Izuku. "You need to be completely aware of your surroundings." His hand reformed into a clawed hand. "Or else, you'll be weak prey." He directed his attack towards Izuku's back, the intention clear in his gaze, however with great speed Izuku disappeared, leaving a trail of green electricity and appearing next to Derek. "That's what I say." A punch with 5% of One For All connected against the man's cheek who flew out of the place. "I'm sorry Aizawa-sensei." Izuku said before following his target.
The pro hero sighed, however he also noticed that Camie had disappeared. "Damn, those two." Without saying anything Aizawa jumped into the crowd of villains, knowing that the duo of students could delay those two.
