Class 1-A's Assassin

Chapter 29 - Battle Trials

Previously:

You then turned to walk back inside, knowing you had a true friend in Jiro.

Currently:

It's been two days since Jiro learned about everything, and the suspense was killing you. None of the other teachers or students have been looking or treating you differently. Although Jiro has made an effort to avoid you during the normal morning classes.

You were gonna confront her again today, but your plans were interrupted by large footsteps coming down the hall. Everyone got curious, except for Midoriya who seemed to become infinitely more excited.

The door suddenly burst open, and a hulking man leaned in. "I AM HERE! WALKING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"

The self narration made you chuckle, as it was anything but normal. Sure you weren't as into heroes as most other kids, but it was hard not to know who this was. All Might, the current number one hero.

Your classmates started to talk among themselves. "It's All Might!" "He looks so cool." "Is that his silver age costume?" "His dialogue is all bolded and capitalized, it gives me chills."

All Might interrupted the class, "WELCOME TO HERO BASIC TRAINING BASICALLY HEROING 101! NOW TODAY WE WILL HAVE..." He holds up a card with the word BATTLE!, "BATTLE TRAINING!" People got a little worried, and again started talking among themselves. "BUT FOR THAT YOU"RE GONNA NEED THESE!" 

He motions to the wall on his right which proceeds to open up and show rows of briefcases. Each of them numbered 1-20. The class got hyped seeing these cases, "Costumes yeah!"

"NOW YOU ZYGOTES I'LL SEE ALL OF YOU AT GROUND BETA!" He then walks off, probably to ground beta.

Everyone grabs their suitcases and walks off to the locker rooms to change. You didn't take long since you were used to suiting up like this. Although the absence of your hidden blades made you feel vulnerable and naked.

Now that you were dressed, you just had to equip yourself. Strapping on your mother's sword and slinging your rifle on your back, you felt more power. But still incomplete. Looking at yourself with your hero costume, you missed your hood, and the light armor that protected you. But this was a suitable replacement. 

You walked out of the locker room and headed to ground beta. You were met with some of your classmates in their own costumes. Many of them skin tight to allow for easier movement. There were two you were really curious on though. Those being Toga, and William.

Toga kept the design of her costume a secret to you and Eri. But you couldn't wait to see it. Feeling a tap on your shoulder. You turn to see Toga in all her hero costume glory. "So, what do you think?"

It was dark in color, and seemed to be made primarily of leather. Again, it seemed skin tight and you could see all her curves. She had a mask that covered up to her nose, as well as a blood red scarf that went to her calves. Her costume was covered in 8 knife holsters, each filled with throwing knives. There were also two shuriken and a rope dart hanging on her belt. She had a short sword just over her left shoulder and if you had to guess, she probably had hidden shoe blades.

*AN: Just add a rope dart on the belt, and you know, Toga

You were speechless. It looked really cool and it fit Toga pretty well. "You look good, really good. Wait, when did you learn how to use a sword?"

She just smiled, pulled down her mask and kissed your cheek. "What did you think I was doing when I went out?"

"Your job."

Her smile faded, "Oh yeah, I guess that's a good assumption." She released a weak chuckle and rubbed the back of her head.

You just laughed a little and patted her head. "You're such a dork. But you're my dork."

She smiled and blushed. It's not like you haven't noticed how much she likes head pats.

Anyway, on to the other person of interest. William Cormac. The person who will probably be your biggest rival.

He looked a lot like his ancestor. Probably where he got the inspiration. Although, it kind of seemed like he had something in his ears. Almost like hearing aids. He also had a face mask covering his mouth and nose. Weapon wise, he didn't have an air rifle like you did. He did have a blow dart set up to compensate. He also had a thinner longsword as well as a dagger for parrying. You also wouldn't doubt that he had hidden blades. Lucky.

You and William eyed each other, taking in the similarities of your costumes. After a minute of this, you two broke contact and looked at everyone else's costumes. They all looked pretty cool. But it also made you realize, that yours and Williams costumes, were a little outdated.

All Might was in front of the class, "THEY SAY THE CLOTHES MAKE THE HERO, AND YOU GUYS SURE ARE MAKING IT!" 

"Yeah!" "Looking good guys!"

All Might calmed everyone down, "I LOVE YOUR ENTHUSIAM. NOW, WHO'S READY TO RUMBLLLLLEEEEEE!"

"MANLY." The red head said. Hey that rhymed.

"NOW, ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE I EXPLAIN THE RULES!?"
