*Thud* owwwww"
"C'mon izuku the exams in three weeks and you barely know how to counter right" Oliver said as he went back to his stance after throwing izuku to the ground.
"It's because you always counter my counters" Izuku said as he quickly got up and charged at oliver aiming to grapple his lower body, but Oliver had seen this coming and sidesteped
At the last second and grabbed izuku's collar and initiated a choke hold.
Izuku couldn't breath and was left with only one choice.
*Taptap* Izuku tapped the floor three times as a sign of giving up.

"Not bad, almost didn't see that last counter". Oliver said while helping izuku to his feet.
"Youre almost as good as me now"

"That's a joke right?" Izuku said while stretching his arms
"It's been nine months, have a little faith in yourself...."

"Well, you had five years, that's a bit unfair"

Oliver chuckled a bit
The last nine months have been quite hectic for Oliver, it's the first time he's had a diciple after all. He had taught Izuku more than just how to fight, he taught him how talk his way out of any situation and  also mechanical knowhows for fixing and making weapons. Heck, he even went and gave Izuku a connection to the russian mob for emergency situations...
He had grown quite proud of  Izuku
He really reminded him of Roy.

"Fair enough, it's time for bow and arrow training" both went and got their respective bows when suddenly oliver heard two beeps.
"The batteries almost dead" Oliver said as he looked at his robotic arm.
And apparently I also have a meeting in half an hour"
"That's alright Oliver I can practice on my own"
Oliver hesitated for a bit before agreeing
"Well alright, but when I comeback I want those tagets to have an arrow each,  fifteen laps around the building every time you miss a bullseye."

Izuku chucked at the fifteen laps part
Before aswering
"Just go will ya...?
Oliver then proceeded to exit the building probably off to another meeting.
Izuku then proceeded to the abandoned building nearby which oliver refurbished into a training area.
Izuku wasn't as good as Oliver when it came to the bow and arrow,definitely not... But he wasn't exactly average neither..
25 targets were scattered all over the building there were 25 arrows on Izukus quiver...perfect.

Izuku kicked the door while drawing the bow and hitting the first target the second it oppened.
Dodging a trap arrow that oliver set beforehand by dive rolling he proceeded to hit the target that was located near the trap.
He flinched after seeing that the arrow he just dodged was firmly planted on the wall.
" that could have killed me?!! Ughhh"
Izuku said as he wondered how he survived the last nine months of helling training.
Izuku shook it off before proceeding  to look for the rest of the targets. By the time he was done Izuku had hit all twenty-five of the targets in less than ten minutes, and of course all bullseye.

Izuku took off his training gear and put on his jacket. "I have time to spare guess ill go for a walk.." He proceeded to lock the door and exit the building.
The base was located in a bad neighborhood, Izuku has gotten used to it though, he's even made a few connections here and there.
It really feels like he's become a vigilante but he never forgot his ultimate goal, to be a hero.

Izuku pondered on the thought while walking around, after saying hi to a few people he found himself to have wandered off to an empty alleyway.
This part of the city was almost devoid of people  it wasn't unusual to find an empty alleyway but this particular alleyway was not so empty.
"Hand it over lady! Or ill pop your brains out!" A man shouted as he pointed a gun to the girls head.
A classic robbery was ongoing before Izuku's eyes, Izuku quickly kneeled down seeing as the man hasn't noticed him yet.
Izuku cursed himself for not bringing any weapons, but he might not need any in the first place.
"This guy probably doesn't have a powerful quirk seeing as how he needs a gun to threaten a life, and even if his quirk is amazing but just not combat type I could probably handle it. Still, it would  be safer if I had a weapon.." Izuku grinned as he just found the perfect weapon.
