Chapter 9: Expect the Unexpected
(Next Day, Location: Entrance of U.A., Morning)
"Hey, you! Can you tell us what it's like to work so closely to the Symbol of Peace?" A Female Reporter with an HNA armband on her left arm requested. She was holding a mic close to Izuku who was the least to say, a bit bashful, surrounded by others with cams, cameras, and mics.
He began to back away slowly from them before heading into the school. "Oh, um...Sorry, I-I have to uh, go to the Nurses' Office. Yeah, right away!" It didn't take long for the Media to spot a Spyro, Sparx, Elora, Hunter, Bianca, Shiela, Byrd, Bentley, and 9 walking towards the entrance. Heading over to them, the Media immediately recognized them. "Excuse me...Wait, you're those kids from that Sludge Villain Incident!"
"Got a problem with that?" Spyro gave a stern look at the Anchorwoman who sounded surprised. Even though it's been at least a year now since that incident, he was still a bit mad that he and his friends were scolded by some of the heroes and ignored by the reporters and civilians that were there. "Uh...No." She holds the mic towards them. "We were wondering if you and your friends would like to answer some questions about All-?" Spyro cuts her off. "No thanks. See ya!"
He gave a wave as he and his friends head in. The Reporter sighed. "Rude little-" She and the others then spot the Gravity user, Uraraka and approached her. "You there! What is All Might like in person?" Uraraka repeated. "What is he like?" She thought before telling them, flexing her arms. "Um...He's really tall and super muscley." The moment she went inside, unsure to answer anything else, Iida arrived at the entrance and was soon questioned by the Anchorwoman. "How's the number one hero fairing as a Teacher?"
Iida began to respond to them. "All Might's leadership and wisdom remind me on a daily basis that I'm attending the world's most prestigious cultural institution. Of course, he's the personification of honor and integrity that one would expect. He's also not afraid to show his students a more humorous side. It's truly-" From the look on everyone's face, they became both bored and uninterested to Iida's lengthy answer. Much relief to the Media, Iida finished and walked inside.
"Excuse me kid are you in All Might's class?" The Reporter asked Bakugou who, looking mad as usual, was walking to the entrance of U.A. trying to ignore everybody there until the Anchorwoman remembered him. "Hold on, aren't you that Sludge Villain Kid?" Hearing that question, he stopped. "Walk Away Now..." With that warning, the woman along with everyone else backed away from Bakugou, letting him pass.
After seeing what was going on, even being given a tip from one of his students of the disturbance Aizawa walked out of the building and towards the opened gate. The Media seemed a bit nervous to get close to the sleepy pro-hero with the MHA Reporter holding the mic as close as she can to him. "Please, sir...Can you get All Might for us?"
"He's not on campus today." Aizawa waved his hand in a shooing gesture. "Now leave. You've disturbed my students enough already." As he walks back inside, the Reporter tried to walk in an attempt to talk to All Might, only for the barriers of U.A. to activate. After the alarms went off, three walls of solid steel came up from the ground, preventing her and many others outside without a Special Pass or Student ID from getting in.
While they chat with one another, keeping their stand at the front entrance, a figure with grayish-blue hair in all black, and red shoes, stood on the other side of the road watching from the distance, oblivious to the Media. While watching on, a red light started to flash from this necklace he had hanging from around his neck. Lifting it up, unveiling a red crystal, the flashing from it stopped with a face of the familiar orange Riptoc appearing in it.
"We have nearly every villain we could get ready for this, including Them. How is it on your end?"
The figure, revealed to be the one Ripto and his minions had met last year, looks up at the reinforced gate. "From the looks of it...Everything is perfectly in place." He grins at this. "It's only a matter of minutes until we move on to the next level." A chuckle escaped the small jewel. "Excellent. See you soon..." Ripto and the glow faded from the red crystal. After ending communication, the figure let go of the necklace and began walking over to the Media.
(Meanwhile, Location: Classroom 1-A)
"Decent work on yesterday's Combat Training guys. I watched the video feeds and went over the team results, and I have to say I'm impressed at what I saw." Aizawa's students were unsure if he's telling the truth or not. Their Teacher looks at Dragon and Dragonfly. "Spyro and Sparx, good job on your exercise." He looks at the Sparx. "Sparx, practice more on that speed and strength of yours. A Dragonfly like you would be the perfect hero to help battle against large villains."
Sparx buzzed with a smile. "Spyro." The Dragon looks at Aizawa. "Keep working on that Quirk of yours. Not sure how you were able to breathe Ice, but that could be in great use against villains of the opposite element." Spyro assures him. "I'll do what I can!"
"Bakugou and Shoto." The two looked at their Teacher. "You're both very skilled, so don't sulk like children because of your loss, ok?" Bakugou looks away. "Yeah, whatever." Shoto simply says. "Sure." Aizawa looks at the One-For-All user. "And Midoriya." He looks at Aizawa who reads the papers he's holding. "I see that you won the match for your team, but it ended with you damaging your leg. Work harder, and try to ration your powers so this won't happen again."
Izuku began to look down a bit as Aizawa then told him. "You can't let your body break while training here. Your Quirk can be at good use in the future if you can get a handle on it." The green-headed teen smiled at this. "So show a little bit of urgency, huh?"
"Right!" Izuku said with a serious look. Aizawa places the papers down. "Let's get down to business. Our first task...Will decide our future." Half of the class froze with shock before their Teacher told them. "If you're thinking this will be another Quirk Test then don't worry, it's not. Today you will be picking a Class Representative and Class Vice Representative." Their relieve became excitement at hearing that as they all thought. 'Oh, good, just normal school stuff.'
Kirishima stood from his chair and shouted. "Pick me guys, I wanna be Class Rep!" Agent 9 jumped to his desk, yelling excitedly. "I Always Wanted To Be The One That Leads!" Kaminari raises his hand. "I'll take either Rep!" Jiro raises her hand as well. "Yeah, you're going to need my help with that." Bentley smiles and raises his large hand. "Guess it wouldn't hurt to give it a try as a Representative."
"Someone with style will be-" "Pick Me, I'm Totally The Right Pick!" Yuga is cut off by Mina once again who was waving her hands with joy. Mineta who was behind Izuku stood on top of his desk too with a shout. "I Think I Can Be Class Representative, I Could-!" He is silenced when Bakugou raised his voice with a hand raised like most of the class. "Hey! Let Me Be Class Representative! I'm Your Only Choice!"
With most of the class either asking or demanding to be the Class Rep or Class Vice Rep it began to get a little too noisy inside of the classroom, making it hard for Aizawa to hear most of them. "Silence, Everyone, Please!" The class became silence as asked. They turned to see it was Iida, who began to tell the basics of Class Rep.
"The duty of both Class Representatives is to lead others. It isn't something everyone can do. First, you must gain the trust of every student in the classroom. Therefore the most rational way to fill this position is by doing it democratically." He looks up at everyone. "We will hold an election to choose our leaders." Seeing Iida with his hand raised was obvious enough to everyone that he wants them to vote for him. Spyro facepalm and mutter to Sparx. "Why did he even suggest voting if he wanted to become Class Rep?"
"Bzzzt Bzz Bzzt." Spyro thought for a moment, soon replying to Sparx's answer. "I guess it is fair." Kaminari then asked. "Is this really the best idea?" Tsuyu placed a finger on the side of her cheek. "We've only known each other for a few days. How do we know who to trust?" Elora hums before getting an idea. "Why not vote for those you believe will do great as Class Representatives?" Everyone looked at the Faun. "As Tsu said, we've only known each other for a few days, but remember the Combat Training we had?"
Flashbacks of the said Training began, interesting to the class, they listen on. "Based on how some of us treated one another, worked together with or even watched from the monitors yesterday, we should be able to tell who to vote for that would be suitable enough to lead this class. Right?" Everyone knew she was right, even Bakugou who in mind tried to deny. After the short pause, Iida broke the silence. "She's right. And there might be some of us who will vote for ourselves, but that just means whoever receives the most votes will truly be the most suitable for this job. It's the best way, right sir?" They can all see Aizawa already inside his sleeping bag.
"Yes, just do what you want before my nap is over."
After laying behind his desk, fast asleep, Iida thanks their Teacher for his trust before he and everyone else began to vote for either themselves or whoever they see is the most trustworthy of becoming Class Rep and Vice Rep. It only took a couple of minutes for everyone to get the results together and see who have the most votes. After Iida backed away from the chalkboard they were able to see who the two were. But surely enough, this would leave most of the class baffled.
(Election Results)
Izuku Midoriya & Spyro Dragon - 3
Elora Faun & Momo Yaoyorozu - 2
"A Double Tie?!"
Izuku and Spyro were both left surprised, or in Izuku's case, shocked to see themselves tied with three votes. Same goes for both Elora and Momo who were tied with two votes. Seeing three of the ten he despises the most at the top, Bakugou shouted. "Okay, idiots fess up! Who voted for them!"
"What, did you really think anyone was going to vote for you?" Bakugou turned to face Sero in anger. "What did you just say!? You Wanna Go, Huh!?" While accusing Sero of voting for one of the three, Uraraka whistled, looking away from the left of the room, Bianca strokes one of her ears, humming to block out the argument, and Hunter kept his face forward, his eyes darting back and forth making sure Bakugou wasn't looking at him, each showing suspicions that they voted for one of their friends at the top of the results.
Meanwhile, Iida shook a bit at his desk, clenching both his fists and teeth seeing that he has not a single vote on him at all. "Zero Votes...I fear this would happen...I can't argue because it was the system I chose." "So you voted for someone else?" Asked Momo, with Rikido telling Iida. "But you knew it was best to vote for yourself. What were you trying to prove here Iida?"
When Aizawa woke up and was shown the two tied Election Results, he gave out a sigh. "Never thought this was going to happen..." After saying this, Hunter raised his hand. "Uh, Teach? How are we going to decide who should be either of the two Reps?" Aizawa looks at the clock before looking at him. "Seeing that there won't be enough time to do a revote, we should let the four decide on who should become Class or Vice Representative after the Lunch Period."
"Wouldn't it be better just to select the two that made it first in the results?" After asking, Agent 9 was then met with an earphone jack shoved painfully into one of his ears. This caused him to flinch, letting out a short monkey cry, rubbing the sore ear after the jack came out. He looked at Jiro and asked in a mix of irritation and anger. "What was that for?!"
Jiro answers him, also irritated, but for a different reason. "It wouldn't hurt to have a girl as Vice Rep." Aizawa then hushed them, still inside his sleeping bag. "Don't raise your voice or argue in the classroom when I'm here." After giving them a warning, he went back to sleep. During this the class began to talk quietly to one another interest on who will become the Reps for their class, being fine with either of the four. Throughout their conversations, Iida stood silent, apparently regretting the system he picked.
(Location: Lunch Rush's Eatery)
"Ugh...It's always so crowded in here." Uraraka told Izuku and Iida. They were sitting together with some open seats near them, their friends either in line getting their lunch or sitting at a different table with their classmates, having a conversation to get to know them better and also try to become friends with them. "That's because students in the Support, Management, and Hero Courses share the same Cafeteria." Said Iida to Ochako, who began eating a clump of rice from her chopsticks. Izuku sighed. "Guys, I'm kinda worried about the whole Class Rep thing. I know me and Spyro are tied, but I just don't think I'm qualified for it."
"I'm gonna side with Izuku. I'm not sure if I can qualify for that either."
They look to see Spyro, Elora, Hunter, and Bianca approaching them with Sparx on the Dragon's shoulder. Sitting down next to Izuku Spyro placed his tray of spicy ramen and peppers on the table, along with Elora whose tray was mostly of a salad, grapes and a green apple. On Iida and Uraraka's side, the other two sat with them, Hunter's tray having a steak in the center with a side of mash potatoes and a bag chips, and in Bianca's, white rice with chopped vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, and celery.
"Having me as Class Rep will possibly be a mistake." Finished, Spyro bites a cayenne pepper from its stem, eating it. "Don't say that. I'm sure one of you are qualified for it." Uraraka told them with Iida agreeing and looking at the two. "With courage and quick thinking under stress, one of you will make a worthy leader. Not to mention the power, strength, and agility you each had demonstrated yesterday. Those are the reasons why I voted for Midoriya."
"You were one of the three?" Izuku asked surprised before looking at Uraraka. She noticed this and smiled at him with a giggle. "If you're wondering, yes, I voted for you too." Leaving only one person left that could've voted for him, he then looks over at Spyro and Sparx. "Do you guys know who was the third?"
Spyro shrugged while eating another pepper with Sparx sipping up the ramen. After a minute of eating Uraraka asked. "Hey Iida, didn't you want to be Rep really badly? I mean you do look the part, 'cause of the glasses." Her friends at the table, minus Iida, looked at her confused. 'That's not exactly how we should be choosing our Rep...' Izuku thought as Bianca spoke.
"Uraraka does make a point. You were very eager when you had your hand up." As she took a bite of her rice with a slice of a carrot, Iida stopped sipping from his straw. "Wanting a job and being suited to it are quite different things. Observing my Family's Hero Agency has taught me much." The seven looked at him, most with a raised brow. "Hero Agency?" Spyro points a half-eaten pepper at Iida, telling him with a smirk. "You never told us you belong to a family of heroes."
As Spyro chomps on the rest of the pepper in his hand, Izuku questions Iida. "What does your family do?" Iida looked a bit worried. "Oh, it's nothing..." "Nothing? Iida, your family has a Hero Agency. That has to be something." Elora told Tenya with a smile. Ochako looked at him with a grin. "Admit it, Iida. You're filthy rich!"
"Gah...I was afraid people would treat me differently if they knew about my family..." A sweatdrop appeared on the side of his face before giving a sigh. "You see...The Iida's have been pro-heroes for generations. It runs within our blood." "That's Awesome!" Izuku, Ochako, and Hunter said while Bianca, Elora, and Sparx listen on in amazement with Spyro looking interested. 'Pro-heroes for generations?' He smirked. 'I gotta admit, Iida's family sounds awesome.'
Done with his thoughts Iida began to raise a finger in the air, asking them. "Are you familiar with the Turbo Hero, Ingenium?" Most of them immediately answered. "Thee Ingenium?!" "Buzz buzz?!" Hunter, Bianca, Sparx asked with either a wide grin or smile. "I know all about him! He's a super popular pro with almost 70 sidekicks working alongside him at his Tokoyo Agency." Stated Izuku excitedly. Suddenly they realized it.
"Wait a minute..." "Iida. Is Ingenium...?"
Iida nods to Spyro and Elora. "He's my Eldest Brother!" As his friends looked on astonished and or talked in awe, Iida tells them. "Ingenium is an on-mask commander who honors the Hero Code. As the second oldest Iida Son, I strive to be just like him." He closes his eyes, keeping his smile. "However, I think it might be a bit soon for me to be in a real leadership role." He looks at Izuku, Spyro, and even Elora. "You three for example. You figured out what the judges were looking for in the Practical Exam. A Rep or Vice Rep needs that sort of influence. Eh?" He looks at the four, noticing the same looks on their faces as well.
"That's the first time we've ever seen you smile, Tenya." Said Uraraka to Iida, making him realize why they were giving him that look. "What are you talking about? I smile all the time." Spyro then asks. "So what you did yesterday after you were picked as the MVP with Hunter was a smile?" While Iida was trying to tell Spyro that it was a smile, Izuku spoke. "Hey Iida, about that Practical Exam-"
RRRRRIIIIINNNNNGGGGG
They all looked up at the sound of the ringing, leaving some of the students startled from the surprise. "What's going on with the ringing?" Bianca asked her friends, covering her ears as a voice on the speakers spoke. "Warning! Level 3 Security Breach! All Students Please Evacuate The Building In An Orderly Fashion Line!" As most of the people in the Cafeteria began to leave Iida asked a student who was sitting nearby him. "What's a Level 3 Security Breach?"
"That means someone managed to get passed the School's Barrier! This hasn't happened in my three years here, we should get going!" The student said before leaving. The seven and their classmates began to follow suit as well with Hunter quickly shoving what was left of his steak into his mouth before swallowing it.
Not long after making it to the hallway crowded with other students, Izuku and their friends started to become uncomfortable, being in little space in the halls and shoved by other classmates that're around them. "Please everyone, this isn't orderly fa-SHION!" Before she could finish, Elora and Spyro were pushed into each other. Feeling the muscles of the small Dragon against her body caused a blush to appear on the Faun's face.
"Everyone was quick to react. Exactly what I expect from U.A. students!" Izuku agrees with Iida. "Sure, but they're also causing a huge panic! Crap I can't stop-" He was separated from his friends by the students trying to get passed him. "Deku!" "Izuku!" "Midoriya!" "Buzz!" Before they could try to get him he was grabbed by Bentley. "I gotcha!" picked up from the crowd by Bentley. "You alright?"
The Yeti earned a nod from the green-haired teen. From Bentley's back, Agent 9 appeared, scrambling to the top of his shoulder, panting. "Could...Couldn't breath..." He said exhausted. After gaining enough air he looked at his friends and asked in anger. "Who are the ones that caused this havoc to begin in the first place?!" Unsure who it was, a voice, belonging to Sheila spoke. "I think I know who!" Iida looked to the direction and began to get past some of the students before looking out the window Sheila was peering at.
"Who could've trespassed on U.A. grounds?" Looking through the trees from the window he was able to see the culprits. At the entrance, the Press is there, holding up their equipment to pro-heroes Present Mic and Eraserhead, still trying to get questions from All Might who isn't even there yet. "It's the Media." Shiela looked at him before looking back at the window. "The Media? How in the world did they get passed the barrier and all?"
Iida answers. "Someone must have found a way to open it." He then looks back at the students who were all still in panic mode. "There's No Need To Worry Everyone, It's Just-Argh!" Both him and Shiela were forcefully pressed against the window, unable to stop the crowd. Luckily their classmates and friends Kirishima, Kaminari, and Sgt. Byrd heard Iida and tried stopping the crowd, only to be trampled and or ignored by the wave of people. "Can't all of you stop being irrational and listen to us?!" Byrd shouted which is drowned out by the many.
"Help!" "Please Help Us!"
Iida, Shiela, including Spark, Spyro, Elora, and Izuku noticed Uraraka, Bianca, and Hunter being pushed away from them and squished together by those trying to get by. "We're coming guys hold on!" Elora told them worriedly as she and the others try to reach them, during this Iida began to look around for a way to stop this. As he looks at Hunter, to Uraraka, to Sgt. Byrd, he began to have a brainstorm. "I have an idea!" His friends looked at him as he began to get closer to Uraraka before holding out his hand. "Uraraka, touch my hand!" She looked at him confused. "Make me float above everyone else!"
"Got it!" Uraraka told him, reaching her hand out to him. inches away she managed to graze the tips of his fingers, allowing her Quirk to lighten the Engine users weight. After launching himself to the air he looks at James. "Byrd!" The said flying Penguin looks at him. "Find the location of Yaoyorozu in the crowd, tell her I need her help!" Sgt. Byrd nods. "Right away!" While he flies off Iida looks down at Hunter who was looking up at him. "Hunter, use your Wind to blast me forward to the wall over there!"
He looks at the wall that has an exit sign on it before looking back at Tenya. "Got it!" He gives a thumbs up and waves his hands from the back of the hall to the front, causing a large gust of wind from above to blast Iida towards the wall. "Iida!" Hearing his name he looks to see Byrd above Momo who noticed the floating blue-haired teen. "You need my help?" Tenya nods. "I need an airhorn and fast?!" As asked, Momo began to grab the visible flesh of her arm and pulled out the said object before tossing it to Iida.
"Thank you!" After thanking her, he crashed right into the wall he was floating too. In slow motion, Iida began to turn the airhorn into the direction of the crowd as he thought. 'This is it! Be precise, clear, and confident!' He then held the button down, releasing a large blow of the horn, ceasing all the students in their tracks as they look up at the sound.
Noticing this Iida let go of the button and spoke loudly. "Listen Up, Everything Is Going To Be Okay! It's Just The Media Outside! There's Nothing To Worry About!" He grabs a pipe from above him with his toes on the edge of the exit sign. "We're U.A. Students, We Need To Remain Calm And Prove We're The Best Of The Best!"
When he finished with Sgt. Byrd helping him down, the students all did what he said and began to relax. While Agent 9, Bentley, Bianca, Byrd, Denki, Eijiro, Hunter, Momo, Ochako, Sheila sighed in relief with police sirens in the background, Izuku, Spyro, Sparx, and Elora, who had witnessed all of Iida's plan, smiled, now knowing who deserves to be the Class Rep, and Vice Class Rep of their classroom.
"We've made a decision."
Izuku along with Spyro announced to the class with Momo and Elora standing beside them on the podium. "After what happened back during Lunch we began thinking over about this, and came to the conclusion that neither Izuku and I are fit to be the Class Representative." Whispers can be heard from the class from Spyro words. Speaking of, the Dragon brought his gaze over to Izuku who then tells the class. "So we decided that Tenya Iida should be the Class Rep." This shocks Iida as he and the others listen on.
"He was able to gain everyone's attention and get us in line during the drill." The One-For-All user looks up at the class, giving a smile. "We believe he should be leading our class for now on." Spyro nods with a smirk. Both him and Midoriya look up to see Iida looking at them surprised.
Then Elora then spoke, grabbing their attention. "Likewise I've made my decision as well." The Faun began. "Similar to my friends, I have considered myself unqualified to become Vice Rep for this class after what happened during the Security Breach...Which is why I'm going to let Momo become the Vice Rep." She smiles as Momo started to have the same expression that Iida had. "After witnessing her use her Quirk to help Iida get the attention of all the students in the hallway, I just knew she'd be perfect as Vice Rep." Momo smiled at her for that.
"You know what?" They look at Kirishima. "If they vouch for Iida and Yaoyorozu, I'm good." Hunter nodded. "They did help us back there when the other students were trampling us." Agent 9 agrees. "I thought we were going to be flattened, but thanks to them we're not." Kaminari then adds in. "You said it. Oh, and did any of you notice how Iida looked like the Emergency Exit Guy when we saw him on the wall earlier?"
"This is all a waste of time."
Everyone nearly jumped when they noticed Aizawa laying nearby the small platform the four were standing on. "I don't care who the Reps are going to be, just hurry up." With that, he began to lay back down for his nap. Iida soon stood from his seat and spoke. "If Midoirya and Spyro are nominating me for this job, then I humbly accept it." Iida raises his hand as he said that. "And if Elora's choosing me to become Vice Rep, I also accept." Said Momo who began to raise her hand too.
"Then it's settled. Momo and I pledge to carry out the duties of Vice and Class Rep to the best of our abilities!" Iida told everyone as he and Momo were soon praised by some of their classmates, with Kaminari giving Iida the nickname, Emergency Exit Iida, after what he did back in Lunch.
"Oh my...This is not good at all." Near the entrance of U.A. where the once indestructible barrier stood, the small animal in a blue suit and female pro-hero from the Entrance Exam, including a pro-hero in a puffed space suit, Recovery Girl and the Professor, who's writing down blueprints for a new barrier, now stand in front of the rubble of what's left of the said gate. From the looks of it, all three layers of the barrier have withered away into nothing but piles and piles of metallic rocks and dust. "How were ordinary members of the press able to bypass our security systems?"
This question made the Professor pause and look at the talking animal who continues. "Someone else must've been behind this. Some villain managed to infiltrate our school...But was this only a show of power? ...Or a declaration of war?" The 4 heroes, including the Professor, had no way to answer that question, hesitant to what the villain wants from them. However, deep down inside, they knew whoever did this will return, and they aren't coming back alone.
(Next Day, Location: Classroom 1-A, Afternoon)
After going through the 4th day of U.A. and all 7 periods, the students were now back in their homeroom for their final period. While at their desks Aizawa stood at the podium and announced to them. "Today's Training will be a bit different. You'll have 4 instructors. Me, All Might, and two other faculty members will be keeping close eyes on you." From the perspective of Spyro and his friends, everyone seemed surprised by this, including Midoirya.
"Sir? What kind of Training is this?"
Sero asked with his hand raised, soon Byrd raised his flipper. "And what will be doing during this training?" Aizawa lifted up and showed them a card with the words, "RESCUE" on it, all capitalized and in blue. "This will be Rescue Training. You will be dealing with all sorts of things. Natural disasters, shipwrecks, and so on." This put a smile, visible or not, on everyone's face. Kaminari raised a yellow brow. "Rescue Training, huh? Sounds like this is gonna be a big workout."
"Totally!" Mina agreed excitedly before Kirishima began to speak. "Real hero stuff. What separates the men from the boys." He sits up and clutches his hands into fists. "I'm shaking with excitement!" "Finally, I'll get to show off how good I am when it comes to water, ribbit." Tsuyu said to the red-haired teen, seemingly giving a smile. "I'm not finished yet."
Everybody in the classroom looked at their Teacher. "Listen, what you wear in this exercise is up to you. I know you're excited about costumes." He turns to the left wall and presses a button on the device in his hand, causing the numbered 28 drawers to come out, revealing the cases holding their costumes. "Keep in mind, some of you haven't gotten used to them yet and they might limit your capabilities." He puts the device away before telling them.
"I also have to inform you that thanks to a new faculty member here in U.A. there may have been upgrades added to some of your costumes. So don't be surprised if you got them or not." This made the class seem very curious now about the ascents that were given to either of their attires in the containers beside them. "This Special Training will be off the campus facility. So we will be taking a bus to get there." Eraserhead began to walk away. "That's all. Start getting ready."
With that, the 1-A students began to get up from their seats and head over to the now opened shelves to get their costumes. As they did so, Spyro and Sparx stopped, noticing Izuku at his desk clutching his fist with determination all over his face. "Izuku." This brought Midoriya out of his thoughts as he looks over at the said Dragon. "Come on. It's time to get our costumes and head out." His green-haired friend nods with a small smile. "Right." He gets up and goes over to the others, getting his costume as well. After all of them left the room, they started to head towards the locker rooms to change into their said attire.
Outside, Class 1-A began to wait for the bus that will be picking them up and dropping them off at the place they'll train at. During this, they began to notice the new upgrades that were given to them by the new Teacher. Some were hard to notice while some were very noticeable.
"Toru is that your upgrade?"
Mina approaches the said Invisible teen with a surprised look. While wearing her gloves and shoes, Toru was also wearing a light and dark cyan skintight suit only leaving her head, hands, and feet exposed, but still invisible of course. What was notable about the suit was the circle which is located in the area where the belly button would be.
"Mm-hm! And this is the best part of it." Toru presses the circle where her navel would be. In a matter of seconds, the suit turned invisible, leaving only Toru's gloves and shoes the only thing the others can see. "Ooh, that's so cool!" Mina said excitedly. "Now you don't have to worry about using your Quirk in the nude anymore." Even though nobody could see it, Toru was smiling with a light blush. Soon, Hagakure became curious. "Did you get an upgrade too?"
Mina nods and then pulls her arms from behind her back, revealing fingerless gloves with fuzzy wrists on her hands with the same design color of her costume. In the palms, there were two button-shaped pumps attached to two tubes leading up to the back of the gloves to two nozzles. "With these gloves, I can fire a direct hit on anything from far away." She shows Toru by clutching her hand, firing a bit of acid from the nozzle onto a rock far from them, melting some of it away.
"What The Fuck?!"
Everyone looks directly at Bakugou who sounded mad about the upgrade he was given. The handles of his Grenadier Bracers now had a power gauge on them, being down to the green. Even after pulling the handles back it's revealed that the pins were now replaced with triggers. "What Kind Of Shitty Upgrade Is This Supposed To Be?!" The blonde demanded in anger, scowling at the gauntlet on his right arm.
"Heh, looks like the new Teacher found a way to limit your Explosions Bakugou." He glares at Spyro who answered him with a smirk. Instead of yelling at the Dragon he looks back at his new Bracers. Feet from them, sitting on a bench, Shoto looked up at the sky before turning to face his left arm, which wasn't frozen over like the rest of the left side of his body.
Lifting up the sleeve, he exposed what appeared to be armor with a couple of holes in it, revealing a bit of his skin underneath. The armor covered his arm from the shoulder to his hand. After scowling the armor he gave a slight sigh and brought the sleeve down, soon coating it and his hand in ice, hiding the upgrade he was given. While some of the others showed off their upgrades to one another, Ochako approached Izuku.
"Deku, why are you wearing your PE clothes?" She points at the said clothing. "Where's your costume at?" He answers her. "You saw it during the costume training, it was kinda trashed. I'm still waiting for the Support Company to fix it up."
"YEOW!" They turn their attention towards Mineta who flew in the air with teary eyes, kicking his feet, both of his hands patting his backside that was smoking. After landing on the ground he turned towards Spyro. "You almost burned my costume! Why did you do that?!" The Dragon looks at Minoru with a displeased expression. "That was just a warning Mineta." He began. "It's not cool to ogle at girls, especially if they're my friends you're looking at."
That earned Spyro a smile from Elora, with some of the other females glaring at the perverted grape-head who became scared of the death stares. Before anything could escalate, Iida blew the whistle, gaining everyone's eyes on him with the bus right behind him. "Gather around Class 1-A!" He spoke loudly. "Using your student numbers, make 2 neat lines so we can load into the bus properly!" Tenya blows the whistle once more as everyone head to the bus.
"The Bus' inner design ruined my boarding strategy..." Iida looks down in defeat. The inside of the bus was nowhere like what he presumed it would be. Mina tells the Class Representative. "Iida you really need to chill." Bentley, who sat on the step near Kirishima and Kaminari, agrees. "Yeah, don't feel bad about it. Like the old saying, you can't always get what you want." Ashida nods with a hum. Tsuyu then spoke. "If we're pointing out the obvious, then there's something I want to say...About you, Midoriya."
Izuku jumps a bit at this with a tint of red on his cheeks. "A-About me Asui?" She reminds him. "I told you to call me Tsu." Izuku looks away a bit. "O-Oh, yeah right..." Tsuyu tells him, a little blush appearing on her face. "That Quirk of yours. Isn't it almost like All Might's?" Izuku was now nervous, thinking she might know the truth. His friends also thought the same as their green-haired friend spoke. "What, really? You think so? I never really thought of that? I guess it's kind of similar-"
"Wait, hold on Tsu. Don't forget, All Might's power isn't fire-based, and he doesn't have an Orb sticking out of his chest. That's all a huge difference." Izuku stopped and sighed, mindfully thanking Kirishima for pointing that out. "Still I bet it's cool to have an augmenting fire type of Quirk. You can do a lot of flashy stuff with it." Kirishima holds his right arm out and uses his Quirk to harden it. "My Quirk is super strong and can beat villains in a fight, but it doesn't look all that impressive..."
"No way, I think it's really awesome-looking."
Kirishima looks surprised by Midoriya's words. "You really think so?" Izuku nods. Sparx buzzes to the red-haired teen which Spyro translates. "We assure you Kirishima, you're a hundred percent pro-material with a Quirk like that. Heck, it could practically rival against my head-bash." Eijiro looks at him, sounding curious. "Head-bash?" Spyro nods, tapping his own forehead. "It's when I use my head to take down or breakthrough someone or something in case my Flame Breath or other attacks can't harm them." Kirishima seemed amazed by this and grins.
"Using your head? Now that sounds both manly and flashy Spyro. I actually might wanna try that someday." Mentioning the word, flashy, brought Yuga, whose chin is laying in his hands, into the conversation. "My Navel Laser is the perfect combination of pizzazz and strength." Mina places her hand on his shoulder. "But it's way lame if it gives you a stomach ache every second you use it." Aoyama's face turned a bit blue at the thought of that. "Well if any of our other classmates have pro-quirks it would be you guys."
Eijiro looks at Spyro's friends, giving them a grin. "That would go for Tordoroki and Bakugou as well." Bakugou looks at Kirishima before looking back out the window with his hand back under his chin. "Sure, but Bakugou's will never be popular with that temper of his." That angered Bakugou as he raised from his seat and grabbed the orange rail in front of him.
"What Did You Say?! I'll Kick Your Ass!"
Tsuyu points at him with a smile and her froggy tongue sticking out a bit. "You see?" Kaminari then points at Bakugou. "You know, we basically just met you. So it's kinda telling us that your personality is flaming crap mixed with garbage." This was making the Explosive user grit his teeth before he let out another outburst. "You'll Regret The Day You Applied For This School Loser!" Spyro bothers Bakugou. "Ever know when to stop threatening everyone Kaachan?"
"Call Me That Again And I'll Blow Your Ass To The Sun!" As Iida tries to stop the argument, Momo raised her hand up to her mouth and tells Uraraka and Elora. "This is such a disgusting conversation." Uraraka smiles at her. "Yeah, but it's pretty funny listening to them fight." Elora, unsure if this argument should progress between Bakugou and Spyro, raised her hand and asked. "Sir, are we almost there?" Aizawa looks at everyone and answers the Faun. "Just seconds away." He notices the argument and speaks. "Hey, hey!" Raising his voice a bit stopped the argument. Bakugou, Iida, Spyro, and Kaminari look at the Teacher. "Stop messing around back there, we're here."
"YES, SIR..."
(Location: USJ/Unforeseen Simulation Joint)
After stepping off the bus, Class 1-A were met by a pro-hero that seems to be in a very puffy full-body space suit, wearing yellows shoes, gloves with metallic fingertips, and a black dome-shaped helmet with only their white eyes visible. They greeted the class. "Hello everyone, I've been waiting for you." They started, leaving the class, mostly Midoriya and Uraraka amazed at the hero they're seeing. "Whoa..." Hunter leans to the right and whispers to Izuku. "Who's the puffy-looking guy...Or gal?" The green-haired teen smiled.
"It's the Space Hero, Thirteen. The pro that rescued a ton of people from different types of disasters from across the world." Uraraka shouted excitedly after Midoriya finished. "Woo-hoo! Thirteen is one of my favorite pro-heroes!" The said Space Hero began to gesture their hand towards the large dome in front of them. "I can't wait to show you what's on the inside."
"THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME!"
They began to follow Aizawa and Thirteen towards the entrance of the USJ. When inside the large dome, the whole class looked from the stairs, becoming very amazed by what they're seeing. "Whoa, this place is huge!" Hunter's voice echoed mildly due to the size of the building. "I know right? It's like some kind of indoor amusement park." Kirishima said before Thirteen listed out the areas of USJ. "A Shipwreck. A Landslide. A Fire. A Windstorm. Etcetera." The Space Hero opened their arms, looking at the gate leading to the stairs.
"I made this Training Facility to prepare all of you to deal with different types of disasters out there in the world. I call it...The Unforeseen Simulation Joint! Or in short, the USJ!"
"Just like Universal Studios Japan..." Class 1-A said at the same time with the same look. Spyro and his friends may have been in this world for only a year, but they've been here long enough to know things like Universal Studios Japan. Aizawa approached Thirteen. "Hey, shouldn't All Might be here already? And where's the Professor? He said he would be here before us." Thirteen approaches Eraserhead and whispers. "I was worried you would ask."
Thirteen raised their hand. "Apparently, All Might did too much hero work on his way to school and used up his power. He's resting in the Teachers Lounge as we speak. As for the Professor, he decided to stay back and create a device that could keep All Might in his muscular form for a little while longer. So it may be a while until they get here."
"Figures he would do that..." Aizawa whispered before sighing mentally. 'At least the Professor's going to fix it. We should be okay to start with just the two of us for now.' He thought before telling Thirteen loud enough for his students to hear. "The clock's ticking. We should get started." "Excellent." Thirteen started. "Before we begin, let me say one thing...Well, maybe two things...Plus three...Four, or five-"
"WE GET IT..."
Everyone told Thirteen, becoming a bit annoyed by the rise of things they want to tell them. After, Thirteen began to raise their hand. "Now listen carefully. I'm sure you're all aware that I have a powerful Quirk. It's called Black Hole. I can suck up anything and turn it to dust." While Uraraka nodded excitedly to her favorite pro hero, Izuku smiled and spoke. "Yeah, you've used Black Hole to save people from all kind of disasters before."
Bianca placed her hand under her chin. "Yet your Quirk sounds dangerous." "That's because it is dangerous." Students either gave a gasp of shock or stood silently. Thirteen lowered their hand. "True, I have saved people before with my Quirk, but it can also be easily used to kill." They continued while everyone kept quiet. "Some of you may also have a Quirk that could be lethal as well. In our Superhero Society, all Quirks are all certified and stringently regulated, so we often overlook how safe they can actually be. Please don't forget that if you lose focus or make the wrong move during a fight, your powers can be very deadly. Even if you are trying to do something like rescue someone." Thirteen looks at Eraserhead.
"Thanks to Aizawa's Quirk Assessment Test, you have a solid idea on the potential of your Quirks. And because of All Might's Combat Training, you've likely experienced how dangerous your powers can be used against other people, villain or not. Carry those lessons over to this class. Today, you will be using your Quirks to save the lives of the innocent. You won't be using your Quirks to attack enemies or each other, only to help. After all, that's what being a hero is all about. Assuring the safety of others."
Finished, Thirteen then bows. "That's all I have to say. Thank you for listening." Inspired by the Space Hero, everyone began to applaud for their Teacher's talk of being a hero. During the cheers, Spyro and some of his friends such as Sparx, however, already knew that their powers were deadly, having killed a couple of enemies back in their Homeworlds when they were up to no good in the past. Luckily those enemies, besides the Sorceress obviously, were animals or made of either magic or non-living materials like metal, lava, or ice. "Right." Aizawa began, pointing his finger to the stairs. "Now that that's over."
FFFIIIIIZZZZZZZ
Everyone looked up at the lights to see a surge of electricity pass the lights above them one-by-one, causing every single one of them to go out. "A power outage?" Byrd questioned, looking confused and suspicious of the lights turning off. Bianca looked around before focusing on the fountain in the center of USJ, which started acting weird. Looking closely, her eyes widened in shock, seeing what looks like a dark portal with a purple wispy outline around it appearing, growing bigger as the time pass.
"It's not a power outage. Look at the fountain." She points at it, everyone looks at it, leaving both Aizawa and Thirteen shocked. Just then the portal formed into a large figure with yellow glowing eyes. Within the figure's body, a hand began to come through a hole opening up, revealing a male's head, covered by two pale disembodied hands, one on the back connected to two red tubes and one on the face of the male, covering his face except for his eye, which looks a bit bloodshot with a red iris.
Aizawa's eyes narrowed before he looked back at his students. "Stay together and don't move!" He looks at the Space Hero next to him. "Thirteen, protect the students!" They looked back at the portal, soon seeing the full body of the male, covered from the waist, arms, shoulders, and neck in disembodied hands. From the grayish-blue hair, black clothing, red shoes, and necklace. There's no doubt, it's the same person standing out in front of U.A. yesterday morning. From behind him more people, in all different shapes and sizes came out from the large portal-looking figure.
"Did the training start already, I thought we were rescuing people?" Eijiro asked, raising his hand over his eyes to get a better view of the people below. Upon further inspection for Spyro and the gang, some of those people weren't human at all...Spyro knew exactly what some of them were as they left the portal figure, he whispered only for his friends to hear. "Gear Grinders, Robots, Water Workers, Earthshapers, and Ice and Fire Wizards?" Elora whispered to their friends with her eyes still glued on those Spyro met in the past in shock. "They're enemies back when Spyro and Sparx were in Avalar with me, Hunter, and the Professor."
Now they were shocked by this as well. How did their enemies from Avalar get here if the only portal that brought them here is inactive? Suddenly on the further left side of the person covered in disembodied hands, a larger shiny yet metallic figure appeared, revealing to be an old enemy Spyro swore to have permanently shut down back in the Beast Makers Homeworld. "Metalhead's here too?" Spyro looked at the said enemy in anger and takes a step forward. "How did they-?" "Stay Back!" He stopped with most of the class flinching from their Teacher's shout. Looking at Aizawa they can see he was putting his goggles over his eyes.
"This is real. Those are villains."
The rest of the class was now both terrified and shocked by this. They watched as what seemed to be the remaining villains walk out of the portal-looking villain with one being very well built and about the exact height as Metalhead, if not, a foot taller. The large villain also had black or navy blue skin with red scars on its arms. Not only does it have what looks like a bird beak with sharp teeth, but its brain was also exposed with its two large eyes on it from the sides.
"Hmm...The only heroes I see in front of us are Thirteen and Eraser." The Mist Villain spoke. "Perplexing." "Perplexing indeed." A voice within the Mist Villain, known as Kurogiri, spoke, soon emerging from him, revealing to be Ripto. He was on top of Gulp's head with him and Crush from the side coming through the portal as well. Ripto began to rest his scepter on his shoulder, looking at the Mist Villain. "According to that schedule, you and Tomura retrieved, it said that All Might and that Professor would be here as well."
Seeing the Riptoc and his two minions arrive from the portal, the nine now got their answer. "Ripto..." Spyro said in a cold tone, watching along with everyone else as the villains' approach. "So you scumbags used the Media as a cover-up to sneak into the campus." Asked Aizawa before the one with disembodied hands, revealed as Tomura, last name Shigaraki. "Where is he?" Tomura asked in his raspy voice.
"We went through the trouble of bringing so many friends that were all so very eager to meet him. They want All Might, the Symbol of Peace..." He began, his arms opening wide, looking up. "Can't believe he's not here." He looks up at the students and Teachers. "Maybe if we kill a few kids he'll come out to play." Ripto grinned menacingly, staring at the group as well. "Hm...Fewer heroes to deal with in the future?" He smacked the Scepter against his hand. "I like that idea of yours."
Hearing this, Aizawa activated his Quirk, causing his hair and scarf to float around him. While the others looked on Kirishima said. "Real villains, no way." Spyro looks at him. "If they weren't villains they wouldn't be here right now." Eijiro looked at him. "Trust us. They're real." The Harden user looks back down at the enemies and asked. "But, how did they get into a U.A. facility that's so secured?" Momo passed them and asked the Space Hero in front of them. "Thirteen, why aren't the alarms going off?"
"Good question...I"m not sure?" That answered made the students gasp. As for Spyro, he knew exactly why the alarms weren't working. "Gear Grinders." Everyone looks at Spyro who continues. "The big orange guys dressed up like mechanics with the large monkey wrenches and the robots by their side." They look at the said enemies. "They must of disabled the alarms and are using their robots to keep them from going off." He then looks at the biggest robot. "Either that or somebody with an Electric Quirk disabled the alarms to keep them from going off."
When he finished, Aizawa stepped closer to the stairs. "Thirteen, get them out of here and alert the main campus." Ordered Aizawa before telling them. "Actually...If they have the ability to block our sensors, then they might be blocking our regular communications too." He looks at his students.
"Agent 9 and Kaminari. Try using your Quirks to contact the School." The two nod. "Got it." "You bet!" While Kaminari uses the earphone device on his ear and Agent 9 uses the watch-like device on his wrist, given to him as a small upgrade, Midoriya questioned their Teacher. "What are you going to do? You can't fight them on your own. There's too many of them, and even if you can cancel their Quirks, your fighting style is not suited for this. Your power works in stealth and one-on-one fights." Izuku looks down. "It's not going to help us."
Shouta looks back at them. "You can't be a pro if you only know one trick." Hearing this, Spyro and Sparx approached their Teacher. "Aizawa, let us help you take care of villains. We know you said you can take care of this, but-" "No." Aizawa cut him off. "Spyro, Sparks, stay with the group, that's an order. I got this." Spyro didn't argue back as Elora placed her hand on his shoulder. Looking at the Faun, she shook her head no to him, wanting him to listen to what Aizawa asked them to do. After this, Aizawa spoke to the other Teacher.
"I'll leave it to you Thirteen." Shouta then jumped from the stairs before running down towards the villains in front of the bottom of it. As everyone watched Eraserhead head towards the enemies below, They noticed one of them stepping closer to the steps as the one with gun barrels for fingertips spoke. "Fire Squad, take your aim!" A female with long silver hair and a large male in a pig-shaped gasmask with three horns stood by his sides, looking up at the pro-hero.
The female asked. "Didn't our intel say that it was just going to be a Professor, Thirteen, and All Might? Who's that guy?" The big guy shrugs. "Don't know? If he thinks he can take us down easy, he's dead!" As they take aim, Aizawa activated his Quirk, preventing the three from using their powers. "My Quirk!" "My hair!" "Where are my bullets?!" They were soon wrapped up by Aizawa's scarf before being taken down. "Hey, that's Eraserhead, a pro! He can cancel your Quirks just by looking at you."
"Is that so?" A four-armed villain asked, charging at the said hero as he taunted. "Bet you can't erase a Mutant Quirk like mine!" He attempts to land a punch on Aizawa only to miss and be punched in the face by him. Aizawa then wrapped the end of his scarf around the villain before dodging another villains attack from behind. "Good thing I've taken measures for situations like this." He kicks the other villain into two others before slamming the four-armed villain into them, rendering them unconscious.
"Now which one of you gutter punks is next?"
While he's being surrounded by villains, Tomura, Kurogiri, Ripto, Crush, Gulp, Metalhead, and the large humanoid bird villain watched on from the fountain. As they did Tomura spoke sinisterly. "There he goes trying to intimidate us. He is strong and since he's hiding behind those goggles, you can't tell whose Quirk he's erasing. He's making things difficult for us." When one of the many made a move Aizawa took action and started fighting them one-by-one while the 7 watched. "How annoying..." He began to scratch the side of his neck with two of his fingers.
"The worse thing to dealing with pros is when they live up to all their hype." Ripto scowls Eraserhead and agrees with Shigaraki. "Tell me about it." Suddenly a well-known scent hit the Riptoc's nostrils. He began to sniff for the smell before looking at the top of the stairs, giving a low growl after spotting the small familiar purple Dragon. "I knew it..." The 4, minus Metalhead and the large villain look at Ripto as he tells his ally. "Tomura, it seems the Dragon is here as well."
"Our second target...Perfect." Noticing the students heading towards the exit with Thirteen, Tomura looks at the Mist Villain behind him. "Kurogiri, stop them from escaping!" The said villain followed orders and vanished from the fountain. Once gone Ripto looks at his minions. "Crush, Gulp, take your positions in the Fire and Windstorm Zone, now!"
They look at one another before walking off. "Oh, And Gulp." The said minion stops and looks back at him. "Feel free to eat whatever student is teleported to you." Gulp gives what sounded like a chuckle and heads off to one the two zones. When they were out of sight, Ripto looked up at the metal menace himself and smirked. "Metalhead." The said robot's eyes glowed green hearing its name from the Riptoc himself.
"I've got a very special mission for you."
