It has been a couple of weeks since Izuku started to train Echizen in hand to hand combat. The goal was to have the black haired girl have confidence in her own abilities and herself when she goes and takes the test for U.A.

Through trial and error the girl grew exceptionally well to Izuku's training. Most of the training would consist of sparring to help Echizen's reflexes and experience in fights when she gets involve in the real thing. Shadow boxing or tree hitting; building form and power as well as speed for combos of punches Echizen would throw.

Usually the conditioning would be worked during the sparring or shadow boxing. The next few times after their sparring session were full of blood, sweat, and tears.

And that is what's is happing right now....

Izuku jabbed Echizen's face causing her to react fast by activating her quirk which as a result harden her skin. The green haired teen knees the blacked haired girl in the abdomen leading to the girl falling down forward clenching her stomach. "Ah ah!" She breath/yelled aloud getting the air inside of her while crying out the pain.

Izuku sign at the thought of his pupil progress. It's usually after one-maybe two solid hits to the body without Echizen's quirk being active will lead to a stop in the sparring session. 'This something to get used too' Izuku reminded himself as he help the girl up then carries her bridal style and walks over to the shade of the trees and away from the heat of summer.

Izuku slowly puts down the tired and exhausted girl against the tree as he saw her tears on her eyes. Izuku didn't feel sorry it was training after all so he let the girl tear up as much as she wanted too.

"Echizen, let out all your tears once the pain is gone we can leave." Izuku sat down the girl who was still tearing up. "But it won't ever go away..." Izuku heard the black haired girl muttered next to him. The martial artist sign at the thought of how much feeling so low self-esteem must be. He did not care for what people thought of him, it wasn't something to be bothered about. Maybe he should consider telling Echizen's bullies to lay off but that's not up to him, it's his students decision if he should get involved.

"Izuku?" The green haired teen looked down at his student/friend. "Yes?"

"I-Nevermind."

Izuku quirked and eyebrow but deep down she knew what the former god was feeling.

Over the past weeks it wasn't a secret that Echizen had bullies in her life not even to Izuku. They say bullying is a part of growing up. Though she did not know if Izuku had the same experiences.

The two began to rest for a bit before continuing the rest of school.

The end of school~

When the final bell rolled around the pair of student and teacher walked together towards the front gates.

"Hey Echizen?"

"Yea Izuku?"

"I think it's time to take a break for a few days? After all it really shows your improving a bit more than before but rest is needed for us."

"I... No. I want to keep training to help me grow stronger~" Echizen was cut off by a chop to her head.

"Rest." Izuku says as he walk a bit more faster. The black haired companion rubbed the spot her head was hit. "What was that for? Hey! Izuku wait up!"

Catching up to her green haired teacher/friend was surprisingly quick thanks to a sudden stop. Izuku had a blank face looking towards the entrance gates.

Echizen looked at Izuku's direction to see a sandy blonde haired boy smirking back at them. "You see something you like pal?" Izuku joked but started the conversation nonetheless.
