HYPOXIA

reptilia, the strokes

As the hellish week of training was to begin, Kirishima and Kaminari were dragging Juniper along with them to their teacher behind the main building. The girl was somehow asleep yet still using her quirk to make herself float so she wasn't being pulled through the dirt. It was as easy as pulling a balloon with the girl on top of a few whirlwinds even as they arrived.

Aizawa began announcing to the class, "Today we will begin training camp to increase your strength in earnest. The goal is to increase everyone's strength, and with that, for everyone to obtain their provisional licenses. Proceed carefully. So, Bakugo, try throwing that."

He caught the ball, recognizing it from before, "This is from the fitness test..."

The teacher elaborated further, "Your previous record, at the beginning of school, was 705.2 meters. Let's see how much you've improved."

Bakugo did as he was asked, throwing the ball with a huge explosion as far as he could, "GO TO HELL!!!!"

"709.6 meters."

It was underwhelming.

"It's been about three months since you started high school, through various experiences you all have definitely improved. But that improvement has mainly been at the mental and technical levels, with some increase in stamina. As you can see, your quirks themselves have not improved that much. That's why we will work on improving your quirks starting today. Try not to die."

After his speech, Jiro gently woke the sleeping girl who only whined and covered her face. Juniper was pouting with her arm over her eyes as she mumbled, "Five more minutes..."

While the rest of the students began to spread out, Jiro and Juniper were left behind with the purple girl becoming more nervous. She shook Juniper with more force, looking slightly frantic as their teacher noticed the two. Jiro whisper yelled at the girl, "Juniper, you gotta get up!!!! He's coming!!!!"

The chaotic girl just continued whining, a headache starting to form. "Five minnnutees!!!"

It was too late. Aizawa made his way over to the girls, activating his quirk and sending Juniper straight to the ground. His hair lifted off his shoulders, but it had become a normal sight to the girl on the ground. He stood in front of them with his arms crossed as he spoke, "Juniper, stop lazing around, unless you want to train for twice as long as everyone else."

She immediately sat up, pouting as she looked at her teacher, "Kinda rude Aizawa Sensei. Some of us just-" Her quirk returned, causing the girl to spin up and simultaneously brush the dirt off of her clothes. She grinned widely as she finished her sentence, "- can't wake up early!!!"

Aizawa looked at the girl closely, taking note of her personality switch. He ignored her complaint and got to business, "Jiro, go see Mandalay for your practice. Juniper, come with me." The girl began humming a tune, spinning around while following and slowly waking her brain up. They stopped close to the forest, slightly further away from the rest of the students. He instructed the girl with his plan, "Your quirk is strong already, but you can't properly handle the effects of overusage. What's the biggest wind you can maintain right now?"

Being asked to use her quirk was the best part of her day. A burst of a whirlwind erupted from the girl, spreading out to the main building and into the forest. From their respective stations, the students all looked over with shock, not expecting wind to disrupt their practice. Juniper spun up in the air, laughing as she had finally let her wind out. Even with the large radius she claimed, she managed to keep empty spaces of the people she liked (most of the students and all of the pro heroes) while messing with those on her bad side (Bakugo, Todoroki, Mineta, and Monoma) by targeting their stations with extra harsh winds.
