*1 Month since Ua and training started*

Izuku was trying to survive another beating from Torino with it being right after school. Izuku landed on his back when Torino kicked straight in the face knocking him to the ground. Izuku was shirtless with evidence of his training all over his body from red welts, old purple bruises and a few bleeding scratches. As he laid on the floor due to Torino's merciful break, Izuku couldn't help remember the first time he went home after his first session.

*1 month ago*

His mom had thought he had been mugged due to him having a massive black eye and barely able to walk. Izuku was able to calm her down saying it was just his training and that it was just harder then thought. He visited Recovery Girl the next morning before school who only healed him a little instructed by Gran Torino. So, Izuku just had a welt instead of a massive bruise causing his new friend to start worrying when they had lunch together.

Izuku's training and afterschool life was simple, get out of school at 3, go to Torino's with Uraraka, 4 Pm training start, 2 hours of beating, 2 hours of rigorous physical training and finally 2 hours of meditation. Izuku would not return home until 10PM where he would eat dinner and just go straight to bed. He would wake up earlier than normal so he could work on his homework and than worked on the homework of his morning classes with Uraraka during lunch.

Even though it was hell Izuku couldn't deny the results, his body felt stronger than ever with it feeling harder from the constant beatings, his muscles getting bigger and more compact from the weight lifting, him able to last longer due to his increase in stamina, him able to dodge and even counter some of Torino's attacks and his mental fortitude on why he's doing this thanks to his meditation. And two weeks in it finally happened.

Izuku was putting a snack for Torino in the microwave in one of the very little breaks he gets in a week this time due to Torino being hungry. Izuku was nursing a bruise on his cheek with a ice pack as he struggled to put the plate in properly.

Torino: Hey Brat! Make sure you put it in right or else the heat won't be distributed right and it'll be cold!

Izuku: Yeah, Yeah. I hear you old man.

Izuku finally fixed the plate and watched it as it slowly turned heating the frozen pastry up. His eyes slowly widened as he thought of something. He tossed the ice bag aside and clenched his fist as he slowly activated OFA across his body with slight difficulty. Red lines started spreading around his body before disappearing into green lightning that crackled around him. Izuku then imagined a dimmer inside of himself and slowly turned it up making his skin glow slightly brighter. He stopped at the imaginary 5% as his bones started to ache and crackle. He took a step and then another before just starting to bounce in place, Torino watched from where he was and couldn't help but smirk.

Torino: How does it feel?

Izuku: Amazing!

Torino: How much you at?

Izuku: 5%!

Torino: Want to go another round?

Izuku nodded as he charged at Torino with the old man doing the same. Izuku got his ass kicked three seconds later but still progress. Now let's go back to the present.

*Present*

Izuku was eating his lunch with Uraraka as she told him what the hero course has been. Most of the time it seems is just wasted on hero laws and history which seems pointless in Izuku's opinion. However, she said yesterday they had their first real heroics class. She had just terribly explained the jest of the situation. Two heroes had to enter a building while looking for a nuclear device with two villains defending it and the teams were random.
