“Today's training will be a little different.” Aizawa said standing in front of the class. It was now afternoon classes.  “You'll have three instructors. Me, All Might, and another faculty member will be keeping tabs on you.” Kazuki grinned at the idea of All might helping them train. He may not be as big of a fan boy as Izuku or his twin, but Kazuki still looked up to the number one hero.

“Sir! What kinda training is this?” someone asked. 

“Rescue.” Aizawa answered.  “You'll be dealing with natural disasters, shipwrecks, stuff like that.”
Students began to chat and whispers about what could happen and why this was cool. 

“Real hero stuff.” Ashido said.  

“This is what separates the men from the boys.” Kirishima grinned.  

“I'm shakin' with excitement.” Kaminari said. 

“Nows a chance to show what I can do.” Kazuki said, to himself. “No more letting others put me in the shadows.” he grumbled. 

“Guys, I'm not finished yet.” Aizawa said and began to explain more.  Like it was their option to wear their hero outfits or not, as they were not fully used to them. Aizawa mentioned how they could hinder them more than being helpful. Aizawa also told them that they would be going to an off campus site and would be taking a bus. 

~~~~~~

 Kazuki decided to wear his hero outfit but didn't bring his gauntlets. He wanted to get used to wearing it so it would never hinder him. Even though he had designed the gauntlets, he still found them a pain to carry around sometimes. Once at the bus, Iida tried to organize them by student number for a seating plan on the bus. Luckily the interior layout did not allow for his plan to work well.

“Iida, you really need to chill.” Kazuki chuckled as he sat next to Kirishima, instead of next to his twin. Though Katsuki gave him a weird look. 

“If we're pointing out the obvious,” Asui said. “then there's something I wanna say... about you, actually.” she said pointing at Izuku 

“About me? What is it, Asui?” Izuku asked nervously. 

“I told you to call me "Tsu."” She said sternly.  “That power of yours. Isn't it a lot like All Might's?”

“What? Really? You think so, huh?” Izuku yelped in surprise. He wasnt expecting that. Kazuki rolled his eyes at the boy who couldnt hold a straight face. Kazuki needed to help Izuku keep his secret. 

“Hold up, Tsu.” Kazuki said. “All Might the number one hero, does not end up with a broken body after using one simple move. That makes a huge difference.” Izuku sighed in relief and nodded at Kazuki. 

“Still, I bet it's cool to have a simple augmenting‐type a' Quirk.” Asui said. 

“You can do lots of flashy stuff with it.” Kirishima said. “My Hardening's super strong and can destroy bad guys in a fight, but it doesn't look all that impressive.”

“Dont sell yourself short Red,” Kazuki grinned and bumped his shoulder with his. “You got into UA on that quirk and dont forget your gonna be a great pro-hero with it too.”

“You really think so?” Kirishima smiled.  “Seems like it'd be easier to be a popular hero if I had somethin' flashier.”

“My Navel Laser's got the perfect combination of panache and strength.” Aoyoma said. 

“But it's way lame if it gives you a stomachache, sweetie.” Ashido told him. 

“Well, if any of our classmates have pro Quirks, it's Todoroki, Kazuki, and Bakugo.” Kirshima said. Kazuki sighed. 

“Sure, but Bakugo's always angry, so he'll never be that popular.” Asui sai.

“Uh‐‐ What'd you say? I'll kick your ass!” Katsuki yelled standing up in his seat. Kazuki sighed.
 
“They got your personality pegged Kats,” Kazuki said. 

“Ya see? Y'know, we basically just met you.” Kaminari said.  “So it's kinda telling that we all know your personality is flaming crap mixed with garbage.”

“You're gonna regret the day you applied” Kazuki raged.  “to this school, you loser...!”

“You on the other hand Kazuki,” Ashido said. “You have a better personality and give off those bad boy vibes. I think you wil be pretty popular”

“Me?” Kazuki chuckled. “I think you all forget who the number 2 hero is. Endeavor made no friends and doesnt like his fans much and yet is still number 2 and has been for a long time. So you all cant really say that Kats wont be popular.”

“I guess you have a point, Kazuki, ribbit,” Asui said.

~~~~~

“Before we begin, let me just say one thing.” A prohero named Thirteen said. They had arrived at the USJ which looked almost like a theme park but was a rescue training site.  “Well, maybe two things. Possibly three, four, or five.”

“We get it!” some of the students yelled out. Kazuki shook his head at them. So impatient…

“Listen carefully.” Thirteen began. “I'm sure you're aware that I have a powerful Quirk.
It's called Black Hole. I can use it to suck up anything and turn it into dust.”

“Yeah, you've used Black Hole to save people from all kinds of disasters before, haven't you?” Izuku asked. 

“That's true, but my Quirk could also very easily be used to kill.” Thirteen said.  Kazuki was surprised to hear it said that way but he looked down at his own hand. He could kill someone if he wasn't careful. “Some of you also have powers that can be dangerous. In our superhuman society, all Quirks are certified and stringently regulated, so we often overlook how unsafe they can actually be. Please don't forget that if you lose focus or make the wrong move,
your powers can be deadly. Even if you're trying to do something virtuous like rescue someone.
Thanks to Aizawa's fitness tests, you have a solid idea of your Quirk's potential. And because of All Might's combat training, you likely experienced how dangerous your powers can be when used against other people.” Kazuki glanced at his twin. Kazuki didnt get to really use his quirk during the combat exercise, but his twin did in a major way. Katsuki looked at him and mouthed what? Kazuki shook his head and returned his attention to Thirteen.  “Carry those lessons
over to this class. Today, you're going to learn how to use your Quirks to save people's lives.
You won't be using your powers to attack enemies or each other, only to help. After all, that's what being a hero is all about. Ensuring the safety of others. That's all I have to say. Thank you so much for listening.”

Before they could begin, some kind of disturbance was happening below. Kazuki frowned and took a few steps forward only to have a hand grab his shoulder. Kazuki glanced up at Aizawa. 

“Stay together and don't move!” Aizawa said to the students.  “Thirteen. Protect the students!”

“Whoa, what the fuck is that thing?” Kazuki said seeing some kind of portal open and people beginning to spill out. 

“Wait, has the training started already?” Izuku said.  “I thought we were rescuing people.”

“Stay back!” Aizawa called out. “This is real. Those are villains.”

“Well fuck me sideways,” Kazuki said. Katsuki shook his head and Kirishima, who also heard him, was giving him an odd look.
