No one pov:
The class is gathered in one of the schools many training grounds. Azula and Mai are there in the UA p.e kit, standing there with their arms crossed like they've known this place for years.

Aizawa: As i said, the next couple of hours will be used for endurance training. Do whatever you think your quirks need work on and i'll come round each of you to check. Now begin.

The class quickly splits up and begins. Iida starts to run laps using his engine calfs, Uraraka keeps a rock afloat and suppresses the urge to vomit and Momo is producing as many objects as she can without getting tired or stopping. As for Ty Lee, She stretches and begins gymnastics training.

After around 25 minutes, she needs something else to work on, preferably something to do with her chi-blocking. She walks up to Momo.

Ty Lee: Hey Yaomomo! I was wondering if you could create a manikin for me to train on?

Before Momo could even reply, Azula walks up to them with Mai following closely behind.

Azula: Training i see? Well long time no see, i was hoping we could train together, and catch up on a few things.

As always,  Azula's voice was dripping with venom. Ty Lee felt a shiver down her spine.

Ty Lee pov:
Oh god, She wants me to... train with her? But why? She's on a whole different level and i know whatever she wants can't be good.

Nevertheless, I nod my head and walk to join Azula and Mai. A drip of sweat rolls down my face and my mind is clouded with anxiety.

We arrive at a secluded and large area.

Azula: Mai please step back. I want to 1v1 Ty Lee.

She wants to WHAT?!
An audible gulp is heard and my body refuses to move.

Azula: Well come on then, I'm the newbie here, Give me your best shot.

I cant start. Every move i would do could be easily avoided and most likely i would be blown by Azula's powerful fire. Calming myself down, i think of a quick plan.

I could walk towards her in a calm and confident fashion, and right when she strikes with her fire i swiftly avoid and in the process make my way closer to her. At least then i will have more openings for me to chi-block and she will have to begin attacking/defending.

Praying that this flaw-ridden plan will somehow work, i begin my confident walk. My head is held high and my arms are moving in time with my legs.

The visible confusion on Azula's face is priceless. Even if i lose this 1v1, at least i got Azula to be less then her usual collected self.

When i'm around 3 meters away, her hand rises and striking blue fire emerges. I avoid by moving slightly to the left but i keep going forward. This confuses Azula even more, and anger takes over. She lifts her entire arm up and slashes down the fire, almost fully engulfing me in it. Almost. I merely avoid but i don't get out unscathed. My left side has been littered with small burns, but they wont be hard to treat later on.

I take 2 flips backwards and get into my battle stance, awaiting Azulas fiery attack. She punches and the fire comes bursting out of her fist covering a large area.

I leap onto a nearby tree, staring at Azula below me

I leap onto a nearby tree, staring at Azula below me. She repositions her fist and aims it at me, this time instead of it being a steady flow of fire, she powers it up and uses it like a gun. She has to wait about 3 seconds for it to get 'charged up' before releasing and sending a strong blow towards me.

I leap and jump around the trees like a cat.
Ohhhh this is bad bad. I need to get down and start attacking her. I cant play defence forever.

I jump down and run swiftly to her.

If i could just see an opening, maybe i could-

My train of thought is cut off when i giant blow is sent my way. I fall back a couple of meters, and back hitting the tough solid ground.

I get up, only to be pushed back down by Azula. She has her foot just below my neck holding me down painfully. I try and move but her foot only pushes down more. I am met with her sinister gaze.

All the memories come flooding back. Her constant taunting, her violent fighting skills and her disregard for other people completely just flows through my mind like a never ending river.

She leans down and whispers in my ear.

"oh theres no need to look so frightened, i am your friend,right?"
