It's been at least two days since they had all been welcome to UA, and currently, it was lunch at the prestigious Hero school. And right now, Ibara Shiozaki was looking out of the window looking down at Izuku Midoriya training, he was swinging that sword of his with a few weights attached. In the two days of their first week at UA, Izuku had been nothing but an antisocial, foul-mouthed, and utterly rude brute and showed others and Ibara most of all that he was just a terrible person. Ibara disliked him with a passion, and she despised the fact that she was in the same classroom as someone like him. Ibara hated how he blew everyone off with his language and just seemed to be unpleasant to be around, yet, she had no idea why Tetsutetsu hung out with him if you could really call it that. Tetsutetsu is nothing but kind to Izuku and while Izuku actually talks to him in a somewhat mild tone, he still ends up telling Tetsutetsu to go away, yet the silver-haired boy rarely listens. Izuku was just not a good person.

As far as Ibara was concerned, he was someone who doesn't really deserve to be called a hero. He didn't fit the bill and acted more like a common street thug then than of a student of UA.

She had no idea why Principle Nezu or anyone had let him in UA, after all, he was one of those people that just gave heroes a bad name. He seemed to be the type to abuse the word and job of a hero in order to just get money or fame.

She eventually turned away from the sight of his training and ate her lunch with the other girls of her class. She ate and talked with her friends, who consisted of her long-time friend Awase, Itsuka, their class rep, Setsuna, and Kinoko.

She ate and talked with them until the bell had rung and they cleared their table and trays and headed back to their classroom. Everyone knew that their first Heroics class was next for them and Ibara wondered what it was they were going to be doing first.

Later, Ibara was waiting alongside the rest of her class in their homeroom. She took a small glance at Izuku and saw that he apparently sleeping, with that sword of his perched up against the side of his desk. He had done that a lot in most classes, which angered her, because to her, it showed that he had no real dedication to learning what it meant to be a Hero.

She glared at him, 'He's not even taking any of this seriously, why come here if all he's gonna do is sleep?' Ibarra thought 'It's a waste of time teaching him if all he does is sleep'

After that, it was here that All-Might had arrived, by bursting through the classroom door in an enthusiastic manner, which was very much like him.

"I AM ENTERING THE CLASS LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!" All-Might announced

Ibara smiled even though the position that All-Might had when he busted into the classroom was rather weird, 'He always tries to make an entrance, doesn't he?' Ibara thought to herself

"Today is a special day! As we will be giving you your costumes as well as seeing how well you can work with a partner!" All-Might stated with a proud smile, "Your costumes are waiting for you in your lockers in suitcases and when finished dressing up please make your way to Ground Beta" All-Might finished

The Students cheered, finally being able to test out their powers and show off their costumes. Each of the students began to leave for the changing rooms, all except for Izuku, as he was still sleeping at his desk.

All-Might approached Izuku and tapped him on the shoulder, and that's when took a fast turn. With some blinding speed, Izuku snatched his sword from the side of his desk, got up from the desk, and swung his sword at All-Might.

All-Might stopped the sword with his bare hand. The students turned to see what had just happened when they looked, they saw Izuku, breathing heavily with a bead of sweat running down his forehead, he looked like he had just been spooked, while All-Might held the blade of his sword with his bare hand, and he gave Izuku a concerned look.

"Are you alright, Young Midoriya?" All-Might asked him

Izuku took a couple of deep breaths and then nodded, "I'm fine" he said

All-Might let go of the sword and Izuku put it down on the ground. All-Might explained what was going and Izuku followed his directions as Izuku sheathed his sword on his back and followed the others to the changing rooms. Many who saw the scene wondered what that was about, and some, very few, wondered what seemed to scare Izuku?

When the students reached the locker rooms, they began to change into their costumes and Izuku opened up and looked inside his case that held his hero costume and looked over his costume. His costume wasn't anything flashy but it also wasn't dull, it consisted of a black high collar shirt under a hoodie, and over it was a pure black metal chest plate that covers his upper abdomen, and on his forearms were similarly colored bracers, a pair of two black shoulder pads, and a pair of black gloves with small metal plates on the back of his hand. he wore a pair of black jeans, and finally, he wore a pair of black boots, with reinforced black metal on the heel and tip of the shoes, and over it all, he wore his signature black cloak.

However, that was the costume. Now it was time for the equipment that Izuku had requested to come with his costume.

First was the magnetic sheath that held his sword to his back, it was designed into the back of the chest plate to hold the sword no matter what, next up was the belt of throwing daggers that he had around his waist, and then there was a pouch full of small bombs that he could use to blow things up. These were the support items that he had requested from the support department... but there was one item apparently still being made...

"Hey, We gotta hurry everyone!" Tetsutetsu cried

Izuku looked at Tetsutetsu and then back at his costume and began to change into it. eventually, he finished getting dressed into his hero costume, and after a few minutes, the rest of the boys finished changing into their costumes and they began making their way out and toward Ground Beta. Eventually, the boys joined up with the girls and they still began walking to Ground Beta.

After a short walk to the back of the school, they had arrived at ground Beta, which resembled a large city, and saw that All-Might was already waiting for them with his signature pose and his signature smile.

"Alright! Now that you're all here, we will be doing a team practice!" All-Might announced

"May I ask what is we're doing today?" Itsuka asked

All-Might nodded, "The situation today is that one team who will be villains are holding a dangerous weapon while the other team who are the heroes, will capture the villains and get the weapon or capture the weapon first," All-Might told the students, "For this type of training, you'll be split into teams of two and the teams will be decided by drawing lots!" All-Might said

All-Might then pulled out a box and asked each student to dig in and grab a ball with a letter on it and would determine if they were villains or Heroes. As each student pulled one out and took a look at what number they got and then the Hero and Villain teams were formed and it was then decided which team would fight the other.

And the first team was announced...

Heroes: Team A - Ibara Shiozaki & Yotsetsu Awase vs. Villains: Team D - Izuku Midoriya & Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu

Ibara was a bit shocked to see this but looked over at Izuku who already had Tetsutetsu with him. He looked unfazed and that's when Izuku looked back at her and when he looked back at her, his dead emerald eyes looking at her with his expressionless face. She felt a sense of fear rise into her.

She felt a bead of sweat fall from her face, then her legs began to shake and she continued looking at him, and when she did, she felt something dark, something... terrible resonating from him. His face become covered in shadow and his left eye was the only thing visible... it stared at her, like a hungry wolf staring at its prey.

However, she was taken out of her trance as All-Might.

"Will the first two teams take their places, while everyone one else please come with me to the observation room," All-Might said as he smiled

With that, the Villain team walked into the building while the Hero team waited outside of the building and waited for All-Might to give the go-ahead...

"BEGIN!" All-Might cried

Izuku's eye's hardened and a sadistic smile formed on his face.

As the Hero team entered the building, Ibara looked at Awase, "We're gonna have to split up," she told him "We can cover more ground, and if one of us runs into whoever is no doubt going to confront us, then one of us can take them while the other tries to locate the weapon and try to capture it," Ibara told him

"You sure?" Awase asked

Ibara nodded, "Yes," she replied

Awase then nodded and the two split up, Ibara headed upstairs and Awase searched the first floor in case they were here.

Ibarra reached the 2nd floor and began looking in each and every room. However, she could not find the weapon,

"It's not on the 2nd floor," Ibara told Awase over their coms

[Same here] He said

Ibara was about to reply but then she heard something fall right next to her and when she looked just a few feet next to her, it was a small spiked ball about the size of a bouncing ball. What she didn't expect was the ball exploding and sending her back a few feet down the hall.

She hit the ground with a loud thud and slowly got up and looked back down the hall where she once was and saw the aftermath of the explosion and just saw smoke, but in the smoke, she could see a figure and could tell who it was. It was Izuku, and right now... Ibara would admit, he looked horrifying.

She growled, "I should have expected a brute like you to come for us," She told Izuku

"It's what a villain does after all," Izuku said as he stepped out of the smoke

Ibara growled at him, "unfortunately for you, I'm the worst person for you to face!" Ibara declared

Her vines grew out from her hair and shot right at Izuku, Izuku saw them coming and grabbed his sword handle and before the vines could reach him, he swung at them with his giant blade and split them in half.

Ibara's eyes widened with shock, she had no idea he was that fast. She shot more of her vines at Izuku but he cut another bunch of them away and then began charging at her. Ibara knew that this was bad, she had no idea he was that quick with that sword of his and assumed he would have to stay in one place due to the sword's sheer size and weight. But she should have known better.

Izuku kept charging while cutting through Ibara's vines, he couldn't stop. Ibara backed up more through the hallways and then turned a corner, while her vines still tried to grab and restrict Izuku, but he kept cutting through them like a hot knife through butter.

Izuku turned the corner of the hallway that he saw Ibara go down, but once he turned, he was hit with the largest amount of vines, they were balled up in a huge mass and when they hit him, they pushed him back so hard that he was sent flying down the other end of the hallway and fell on the floor hard.

"I got you now!" Ibara cried

One of her vines wrapped around Izuku and pulled him toward her, and as Izuku was being dragged, he acted quickly and went into his pouch and pulled out one of his bombs and he quickly lit it and threw it Ibara. Her eye's widened as she saw the small bomb land in between her and Izuku and then it exploded, sending both in the opposite directions while also freeing Izuku in the process.

Izuku coughed a little and saw that his foot was free and he smiled as he got back up, still holding onto his sword tightly.

Ibara got to her knees slowly and felt something wet on her head, she touched her head and then looked at her hand and saw that it was blood. She saw this and her anger only grew.

However, before she could fully get back onto her feet, she looked up to see Izuku with his sword raised and he swung down at her, and she quickly rolled out of the way as the sword slammed down right next to her.

Ibara was shocked for a few seconds but it was here that her anger took over. A Vine quickly wrapped both of Izuku's legs, pulled him right from under his feet, and threw him into a wall.

"HOW DARE YOU!?" Ibara cried

She then threw Izuku against another wall, but this time he went through it completely, she then pulled him out and swung him upwards against the ceiling, and then slammed him down hard against the ceiling.

"You are an ANIMAL!" Ibara cried

She dragged him across the floor like a sack of potatoes yet he still hung into the sword for dear life. Ibara picked him up and held him upside down and then she walked up to him and looked him over, he coughed up blood and looked up at her and smiled.

She glared at him and growled, she threw him around against both walls and he coughed up more blood.

"You are the worst person I have ever laid my eyes on! You are no hero! All you are is a brutish wild animal with no regard for those around you" Ibara cried

She then swung him around before smashing him through multiple walls. Izuku coughed up more blood and he could feel his entire body was in severe pain. Izuku was then slammed to the floor and he could feel more of his ribs broken and he was bleeding from his head and mouth.

'Damn... I knew I pissed her off but this is not what I was expecting' Izuku thought with a wicked grin as he spits out some blood. Izuku now decided that it was enough and he quickly cut off the vine wrapped around his legs and got up and took a stance.

Ibara glared at him and sent a large number of vines at him but Izuku quickly took out another bomb and threw it at Ibara's vines. The bomb quickly exploded and blew the vines away, Ibara quickly shielded herself with her arms and then looked back in order to see what Izuku was up to but when she looked, she saw that he was already close to her.

'He's already that close!?' Ibara cried 'No... don't tell me he ran through the explosion just to get to me!?'

Izuku swing her sword at her but Ibara used her vines to pull her back and farther away from Izuku. Izuku's sword slammed into the cement, and when it did, he lifted it up and then looked at Ibara and charge at her again.

Ibara landed down and saw pieces of cement and she had an idea to slow him down a little. She used her vines to pick up the cement pieces and with amazing speed, she threw the pieces at Izuku and one sped by his face, cutting him across the cheek. Ibara threw more but he dodged a few while using the flat end of his sword to block the cement pieces.

'Is he insane!? why is he continuing to run at me!?' Ibara asked herself with a shocked and horrified face.

Izuku kept running at her with a mad look on his face, and when Ibara continued looking at him, she didn't see a person. She saw an Animal- no! She saw a Monster! An unrelenting monster who didn't stop until he ravaged his prey! Until... Until he ravaged her!

Just then, a tingling feeling was in her stomach and her legs began to shake, something... something was wrong. She stopped throwing the cement pieces when she saw the wild and savage look on Izuku's face. He looked like he was mad and crazy, a crazed and hungry animal looking for a meal. Looking for prey.

That look in Izuku scared Ibara, but at the same time, deep down... it excited her to no end, and she had no idea why! The tingling feeling got stronger and her legs buckled and she fell to her knees, her breaths became ragged, and she clenched her white robe with a tight grip as she felt a cold sweat go through her body.

"W-Wh-What's wrong with me?" She asked herself in a quiet tone

"Beats me"

Ibara's eyes went wide.

The cold sweat she had earlier felt colder.

Goosebumps spread across her body.

She dare not look up in fear of what she would see, but her body betrayed her mind. she slowly rose her head and her eyes looked away from the ground and slowly traveled up and her eyes widened more as she looked in fright at Izuku Midoriya. His face was hidden by shadow, all she could see was his dead emerald eyes staring down at her, as she looked around him, she could have sworn she saw ghastly spirits dancing around him as if he was their king, and they danced for his amusement and pleasure.

That tingling feeling felt stronger and it shook through her entire body and her legs completely shook. She was feeling a mix of emotions inside of her due to that look in Izuku. She was scared, terrified, but... she felt extremely excited.

Izuku raised his sword in the air and Ibara saw this and she gasped. She knew she should move, but she couldn't. Her body was frozen in fear and awe.

'H-He's going to kill me! I-I need to move! Wh-Why can't I move!?' Ibara asked herself

Izuku then swung his sword down and Ibara knew she needed to move or he cut her in half, but she couldn't.

She closed her eyes, anticipating her death.

But nothing came.

No pain.

No blood.

She opened her eyes only to see that the blade was mere inches from her face and she gasped as tears fell from her face. Her heart was racing, faster than it had ever before. She stared at the edge of the blade that was right in front of her face and she fell backward onto the ground as she breathed raggedly.

Izuku smiled and sheathed his sword back on his back, but he then coughed harshly as the blood left his mouth and fell on the cement and onto his hands.

'Damn it... I'm glad I finished it when I did... she's really crazy when she's angry... but it worked to my advantage' Izuku thought to himself

He pressed on his com, "Tetsutetsu... How's- Ack... How's your end?" Izuku asked

[All good Bro! Awase tried to get to the weapon but I managed to knock him out!] Tetsutetsu replied over the com [What about you?]

'What do you know... he's actually good for something else beside's talking my ear off' Izuku thought, and he then looked down at Ibara and saw how she was still away but he was sure that he gave her a scare somehow and that she was now coming down from all the adrenalin coursing through her body.

"She's out," Izuku told him

[TIME IS UP! THE HERO TEAM HAS FAILED TO CAPTURE THE VILLAINS OR THE WEAPON!] All-Might Announced [VILLAIN TEAM WINS!]

Izuku was leaving the infirmary with bandages around his head and a few under his uniform, he shut the door of the infirmary, in order to escape the stern yelling of Recovery Girl.

"Crazy old bat" Izuku muttered as he left

"YOU!"

Izuku turned to look down the hall only to see Ibara walking toward him with a furious look on her face she had a fire in her eyes as she glared at him. When she was right in front of him, she pulled her hand back and slapped him across the face. Izuku seemed unfazed by the slap and just looked at her as if nothing had happened. That only seemed to piss Ibara off more, he acted like nothing he did to her mattered! It mattered! He had made her feel things she had never felt before and these confusing and mixed feelings only seemed to infuriate her just as much as his uncaring attitude did.

"How Dare you! You- You don't belong here! You Damn monster! How dare you call yourself a Hero!" Ibara cried "Your nothing but a savage brute and a Wild Animal! But most of all, you're nothing but a Quirkless frea-!"

However, she didn't finish her sentence as Izuku had slapped her across the face so hard that she had fallen against the wall. She looked back at him and saw the anger on his face, and when he stepped closer to her, she flinched as Izuku got into her face.

"Don't. You. Ever. Call me that again" Izuku told her

Izuku walked past her and left her there in the hallway. Ibara rubbed the part of her face where Izuku had slapped her and she turned around and glared at the back of the boy as he walked away.

She growled at him, 'You will pay, Izuku, You will pay for what you have done to me!' Ibara thought to herself

What do you all Think of today's chapter? Pretty crazy right? Also, can you guess who Ibara is taking the place of?

Also, if anyone is a bit irked by Izuku slapping Ibara, just remember he's supposed to be at the lowest stage in his life right now, and Gut had done a lot worse in the Manga (like for real, Guts did a lot of bad things, after all, Guts isn't completely a good person during the Black Swordsmen Arc and The first half of the conviction Arc/lost children Arc.

Anyway, the next chapter will be the end of the "Black Bunny/Black Swordsmen" Arc and then we'll dive right into the "Golden Days/Golden Age" Arc of the story)

Also, a new cover will be presented with each Arc we get to, so be prepared to see new covers.
