Quirk: Gaia

Survival of Quickest

"Phew... so glad that's over..." Kyoro panted as he gazed at the other stars in the sky. "Alright, hop on again. I need to get you back to camp." Kyoro returning to his blank stare, his eyes still shining brightly, brimming with emotion.

"You can move with those injuries?" Kota asked in shock. "I made sure... not to use my legs like I usually do." Kyoro said as Kota hopped on, vines keeping him in place. Kyoro leapt off of the cliff and into the forest, running to the campgrounds.

Kyoro leapt from tree to tree as to not be seen in his weakened state, hopping as fast as he could. He pushed onward until Kota called out to him.

"Hey, look!" He said pointing to Aizawa running nearby. "Mr. Aizawa!" Kyoro shouted landing on the ground. He ran over and Aizawa stopped hearing his voice. "Midoriy—
?!" Aizawa started, but saw Kyoro's all black, charred arms, and bleeding body. "You're okay..." Kyoro said staring up at him. "I've got a lot of information... I need to tell you." Kyoro said letting Kota off his back. "Hey..." Aizawa muttered trying to grab his attention. "First, I need to find Manadaly. Take care of Kota for me!" Kyoro said taking off again. "I said, hey!" Aizawa said raising his voice, but Kyoro was already speeding away.

"Wait, Midoriya!" Aizawa shouted, making Kyoro slid to a stop. "You did it again, don't you? Burn Out, you called it? Did you forget about Hosu entirely?" Aizawa asked the boy. "Of course not. It was self-defense, though..." Kyoro said shrugging his shoulders. "Okay, then. Tell Mandalay this..." Aizawa started, Kyoro listening intently.

Tiger threw jab after jab at Mange, who blocked with ease, but couldn't find any time to breath.

"Oh dear, you're so close! Let me pick up my item!" Mange whined, the magnetic beam elsewhere. Tiger spun on his heel and attempted a roundhouse kick, and followed with a left hook due to his quirk, only for Magne to evade accordingly. This continued, back and forth with neither advancing.

"You're not..." Spinner shouted swinging the accumulation of blades at Mandalay. She jumped back and Spinner didn't let up. "A real..." He continued, missing another slash. "... hero at all!" Spinner exclaimed, slamming his sword down, missing Mandalay again.

"Jeez, you're too persistent!" Mandalay commented, before spotting a familiar flock of brown and black hair. "You are too! Hurry up and be purged already—" Spinner retorted as he swung at Mandalay again, but Kyoro suddenly judo-kicked through his massive sword.

"Mandalay! I saved Kota!" Kyoro said before crashing into a tree. "You...!" Mandalay mumbled with tearful eyes. "I've got a message from Mr. Aizawa and I! Everyone is Class A and Class B! In the name of pro hero, Eraser Head, you are granted permission to engage in combat!" Kyoro shouted standing back up. Mandalay quickly broadcasted his words, making sure to repeat them twice.

'I forgot to tell Midoriya to come back right away. This is bad. This is worse than bad. The only reason he's probably able to move with those injuries right now is because of all the endorphins pumping through him.' Aizawa thought as he ran back to camp. 'Once he accomplishes his goal and calms down a little, he won't be able to move at all.' Aizawa thought gritting his teeth.

"Mister... Will he be okay?" Kota asked. "Hm?" Aizawa hummed. "I... I punched him... But even so, he got all beat up to rescue me...!" Kota said with a frown. "I haven't even told him sorry... or even thank you yet..." Kota said throwing his head into Aizawa's scarf. "Will he... be okay...?" Kota asked again.

"Don't worry. He got all beat up like that because he has no intention of dying. But as a teacher, I have to scold Midoriya for acting without permission..." Aizawa began. "No..." Kota muttered in disbelief. "So once this is all over, please tell him how you feel. If possible, put more effort into the thank you part." Aizawa suggested.
