If that damn bug could see Komi now.
She was sweating. her sweat was sweating. Her sweat was sweating while producing new sweat. She was 78% sure she was turning into the Witch in Wizard of Oz. 

Aizawa was ruthless, and maybe he was getting back at the class for not being allowed to bring grenades along with him. The school was on a shortage and needed to save them over the summer.

But here Komi was. She hadn't touched the ground in 55 minutes and she had swung through the think trees for nearly 182 km. She had been going in circles, over and over. Her webs were getting really thin, and not able to hold as much weight as they could before. 
Komi needed to eat something spicy. She needed to eat a bell pepper like it was an apple.

And this was only going to be for today.
There was insane measures Aizawa was going through with the class, but with Komi he had taken it up a notch. Given she had a lot of uses for her spider-like quirk, this week she was going to be going through different areas of her quirk. Meaning she had one day to master a week's worth of knowledge.

The first day was webs, and the second was going to be venom. Then the third would be her extra limbs, then the 5th would be her extra limbs and her strength and then on the 5th day she'd go back to webs but be carrying a massive rock on her bag. Then on the 6th day Komi could be blindfolded and Aoyama and Momo would throw their quirks at her and she'd have to dodge.

The 7th day was meant to be the worst, but Komi nor the rest of the class had been told what the 7th day had in stock. Komi was thinking it was going to be a massive grenade that had the power of a nuke or something, and it actually seemed plausible in her mind that Aizawa would do that.

Komi reached to the trees and for the 6th time, the web did not stick well and it thinned itself off, and Komi was falling to the ground. She reached for a tree branch and managed to save herself from falling. The ground was a no-go zone or else she's have to start all over again.
That wasn't a rule Aizawa came up with, it was actually Komi's idea. She wanted to push herself and so far she only restarted once, back at lap 15. Now, Komi was on lap...uh...102, maybe?

Komi would say 101 and then just do an extra lap once she hit 150. And any heavenly woman in the sky, could Komi feel every swing she had taken. It was like her lungs had turned into ice and she was sucking in even colder air. If hell had frozen over, that would be the state of her lungs.

"One more lap." She panted to herself, despite knowing this wasn't going to be her last lap. She just had to keep on moving, keep on eyeing the branches in the trees and concentrate on webs. She could do this, it was achievable. "...One -One more lap."

The goal was to increase everyone's skill 'exponentially' -as Aizawa described- in order for the class to get their provisional license to become a hero. You know, legal requirements to go out and kick someone in the face.
Aizawa also said that the class would feel like they were dying with a smile on his face and now Komi 100% felt like that was an understatement. 

By the time Komi was finished all 150 (plus whatever else she pushed herself to do) laps, she was just about ready to dig a whole in the ground, close her eyes and start resting...but no.

"If you don't push yourself! You won't shred your muscle fibres, and then you won't get stronger!" Aizawa had directed Komi over to Tiger -another part of the Wild Wild Pussycats, and he was this unit of a man in a cute little skirt.

Komi saw Midoriya out on the ground. He was in Tiger's 'bootcamp' as he called it, and he was already dead. Walking over and helping him to stand, Komi asked if the green one was okay.

"Just training!" He replied with a sweaty smile. Gosh, Komi wished she brought more sticks of deodorant. "Are you joining me?"

Komi nodded her head, still trying to catch her breath. "Anything you need advancement on?"
