I washed my face, making sure my eyes weren’t red, then practiced a perfect smile. I believe they’re alive. Anyway, time to head down to the field. I slipped on my uniform and went outside.

“Hey! Aki!” Teacup called.

“Oh, hey, Teacup,” I replied, waving.

“D-Did you, um, get up early today?” She asked, glancing away.

“Yeah, I actually slept peacefully last night,” I said with a reassuring smile.

“I see.” She rubbed her neck awkwardly, as if unsure of what to say next.

Just then, Aizawa-sensei made his entrance, his gaze sweeping over us.

"You will all start training today which will enhance your strength" Aizawa says as Mina nearly falls asleep again, "the goal is to increase your skills so that each of you can achieve your provisional license. You will be able to face the danger that continue to grow and lurk within the darkness. You should proceed carefully".

With those words, Aizawa throws a softball to Bakugo who catches it.

"Bakugo, throw the ball" Aizawa says as Bakugo nods, "I want to see if the distance you can throw the ball compared to when you first started has changed at all".

Bakugo stands towards the clearly as he throws the ball.

"Die"

"I get it, we're checking our progress" Hagakure says as the ball continues to fly.

"A lot has happened to our class in the last three months so we've bound to change in some way" Sero says as the ball makes it's way to the ground.

Aizawa holds out the tablet to Bakugo which reads 709.6 metres, only 0.1 metres more than when he first started at U.A. Everyone is in shock as Bakugo dips his head and his body starts to shake.

"You've had a single semester at U.A. and due to various experiences, all of you have improved. But all of those improvements have been mostly limited to mental prowess and technical skill with a slight increase in stamina as well. Unfortunately, your quirks haven't gotten much stronger. So from now on, you will be focusing on improving your powers" Aizawa says as a devilish smile appears on his face, "this will be hard and you'll feel like dying. Let's hope you all survive".

As I finished my warm-up, I spotted Midoriya approaching, a determined glint in his eyes.

"Gojo-san," he called, hesitating slightly.

"Yes?" I replied, arching an eyebrow. "Oh, wait—don't tell me. You're finally seeking tips to confess to Ochako, aren't you?" A teasing grin spread across my face.

Midoriya's cheeks flushed. "It's not about that!" he protested, visibly flustered, though he quickly regained his composure. "Actually… All Might mentioned that you, well, seem to know about one for all. Almost everything, actually."

I chuckled, amused by his honesty. "I suppose that’s true. So, you're here to improve your quirk, then? What do you want to work on?"

"I want to learn that technique where you sprint so fast that you reach your opponent's back before they even realize it," Midoriya said, a spark of excitement in his eyes.

"I see. That’s an advanced maneuver, but it’s not impossible to teach," I replied, nodding thoughtfully. "Let's do a hand-to-hand combat exercise. I’ll show you what it feels like to move with that kind of speed and precision."

Midoriya's face lit up with determination, and he took a step back to create some space between us. "I'm ready!"

I shifted into a fighting stance, focusing on my breathing. "First, it’s all about anticipation. You have to read your opponent's movements before they even happen. Timing is crucial. Watch me closely."
