Uraraka had new orb gauntlets on her wrists. She and Midoriya were in the same room as Jiro and Kaminari. All of the 1-A students were wearing new iterations of their hero costumes made out of a Vibranium weave.

"This Vibranium is so light," Uraraka said, "These gauntlets don't even feel like they're there!"

"I know, right?" Kaminari said, "And they really know how to make new gadgets. These gloves just came with the directions point and charge."

Kaminari pointed a finger from his new glove at the open area that could almost be mistaken for a window. He charged his hand and electricity fired out of the finger in the direction he was pointing. Uraraka remembered her instructions for her new gauntlets. They said to touch an orb with five fingers and make a fist with the other hand; one increases, the other nulls. She did with her right gauntlet and pink rings of energy fired out of it in a continuous beam. She let go and unclenched her fist in shock.

"What the--" Uraraka said, "what was that?"

Midoriya saw it happen, and he had an idea. He crumpled a piece of paper.

"Ochako," he said, "try and hit this."

He tossed the paper in the air. She fired the beam into the paper, and it fell straight to the ground and was flattened. Midoriya picked it up.

"Incredible," he said, "if I had to guess, rather than cancel its gravity, you increased it."

"So my quirk is off somehow with these on?" She asked.

Midoriya walked straight up to her and held her hand, making sure all five of his fingers interlaced with hers and that her finger pads touched his hand. When they were touching at the same time, he began floating. Uraraka let him go and released him, restoring his gravity. That put her fears to rest. She clenched her left fist and touched the gauntlet with the other hand, aiming at the flat crumpled ball. It also fired a pink beam of rings, and the flat ball flew to the ceiling before falling.

"So," Uraraka said, "left cancels gravity, and right increases it. So, has anything changed with your costumes, Jiro and Izuku?"

"Not really," Midoriya answered, "the only difference between this and my normal suit is that this one is made entirely from Vibranium."

"They gave me little Vibranium sheaths for my jacks," Jiro said, pointing to the silver shining casings holding her jacks, "although this makes them useless to hear, they're apparently stronger in combat. Otherwise, it's the same with Midoriya. It's just a Vibranium suit with vibranium speakers and amplifiers."

The rest of the class also came in wearing their own Vibranium variations on their normal hero costumes. All of them discussed any improvements that were made and were surprised at the extent to some of the improvements. Ojiro had a white Vibranium cloth around his tail that could apparently absorb and release energy. Koda could summon Vibranium particle animals to fight by his side. Hagakure actually had a Vibranium suit that refracted light like she did as well as gloves and boots that could absorb and release energy from the suit. Shuri came in with a somewhat pale Minetta in his own Vibranium suit.

"I got a pint," she said, "which should be enough. The machine to send you back home should be finished in a couple of hours."

"And what about Vision?" Midoriya asked.

"We are about to start on the process of getting the Stone out."

They all heard something screaming through the atmosphere and looked up. They saw a strange structure falling straight for the city. It was destroyed by a force field before it could come into any close contact with the city. Several more structures fell to the ground outside it, though. Before 1-A knew it, they were riding on hover transports to a field outside the city with the Avengers that were still on Earth and the Wakandan Army. They arrived at the field, everyone disembarked from the transports and got into formation. Steve, Natasha, and T'Challa went to the edge of the force field to meet with a couple of aliens and had a small talk with them. They returned after a while.
