Chapter 4: Heroes in Training Pt. 1

The next morning, different teachers came in and taught us the basic subjects such as English and other ones. In the afternoon, however, was where the real fun began. All Might was our teacher in Hero Basic Training. The muscular man with a big smile had quite the entrance when he stepped into the classroom. I'm not complaining though. It was somewhat hilarious. Everyone absolutely admired the number one hero. All Might gave us the costumes we had designed for ourselves before school started and told us to change and meet him at a training ground in the school - Ground Beta.

In the changing rooms, everyone looked stunning. Their designs really suited them. Tsu looked cute with her goggles on her head, the girl with the spiky ponytail wore quite a revealing outfit but I assumed it was to benefit her using he quirk. "Midoriya," Tsu called out to me. "Your costume suits you."

"Yeah, you look great!" Cheered the zero-gravity girl next to her. "Hmm, I don't think I've introduced myself to you," She extended her hand towards me. "I'm Ochako Uraraka!"

I shook her hand, "(Y/N) Midoriya, and thanks for the compliments. You two look great too!" They smiled and thanked me. I turned back to the mirror and looked at myself. I wore a dark grey full bodysuit with orange flame patterns on my hips, legs and arms. I had black boots that were slip-resistant to prevent me from slipping when using my quirk when it gets too powerful. I wore black gloves and a metallic mask on my face that covered the lower half of my face. The mask was connected to two tanks that were on my back. One tank was orange and the other was a lighter shade of grey. These tanks contained fuel and oxygen which would help improve my fire breath.

I walked with Uraraka and Tsu out of the changing rooms. I turned to our left and saw Bakugou in his hero costume along with a red-headed boy. I had to admit, the two were very attractive in their suits. You could see their muscular builds and muscles clearly, especially the red-haired boy. It's hard to not feel like screaming when you're around them. I must have been staring long enough for Bakugou to get mad because he yelled, "What're you looking at, Nensho? Walk away."

"Bakugou, calm down," the boy smiled at us sheepishly before approaching us. "What's up? I'm Eijiro Kirishima. You must be that fire breathing girl during the tests yesterday."

Slightly stunned, I looked at him with wide eyes, "How do you know that?"

He smiled at me, "Well, it's hard not to notice the fire coming out of someone's mouth. Besides, you were the one who fought with Bakugou over here as well." Honestly, all I could think was how sharp his teeth were and how he has a little scar just above his right eye. I wonder what his toothbrush looks like.

I sheepishly rubbed my neck and grinned with closed eyes, "Have I really caught that much attention yesterday..?"

Kirishima shrugged with the corners of his mouth tilted upwards, "I'm not sure, but you definitely caught mine!" He winked at me and I giggled. Right behind Kirishima was Bakugou who was glaring right our interaction. What was his problem? Before I could point his reaction out, Tsu and Uraraka tried to pull me away.

"Let's go, Midoriya!" Uraraka cheered. "We don't want to waste too much time here."

Kirishima chuckled at us. "Heh, well, I guess I'll see you cutie later?" C-Cutie? I bit my lip and nodded before I gave in to Tsu and Uraraka's pulls.

When we walked into the training ground, All Might praised our costumes, saying something like, "Clothes make the Pros." Then, Uraraka and I heard running footsteps behind us. We turned our heads to see Izuku. "Oh, Deku!" Uraraka greeted. Deku? She's calling him that too? Maybe Bakugou was so loud, everyone's aware of his nickname. "I love your costume, not too flashy!" Despite wearing a mask, I could tell Izuku was blushing hard at her comment. These two are so cute.

My eyes scanned his outfit. "In my opinion," I smirked and raised a brow at him. "He looks like a stuffed rabbit, but if I was a little kid, I wouldn't mind him saving me at all." All Might started explaining and we listened. As he explained, I began to notice some similarities between All Might and Izuku's costume. He really admires him, huh? All Might explained that we will be split into groups of good guys and bad guys and fight two-on-two indoor battles.

Tsu whispered next to me, "Isn't this a little too advanced?" All Might explained further, giving us the storyline of how two villains will be protecting a weapon and the two heroes are to either recover said weapon or catch the bad guys. The teams would be decided by drawing lots.

A guy in white armour raised his hand, I assumed it was the guy with glasses because of his posture. "Sir! We have an odd number of students in this class."

All Might rubbed his chin, thinking. "Well then, it may not be fair but when is life really fair? There will be a team of three people going against a team of two people."

After around ten minutes of drawing lots, the teams were decided. I was in the team of three people and I was stuck with one of the people I did not want to be with. "Can't believe I'm in the same team as you," I rolled my eyes towards the ash-blond haired boy.

He glared at me and stomped his foot. "You think I wanted this, Nensho?!" Bakugou growled.

Kirishima stepped in front of us and acted as some kind of barrier. "Hey, come on now, you two. We're a team now and there's nothing you can do about it. Let's show our enemy team what we got as a three-person team!" He enthusiastically said as we continued to glare daggers at each other. We were not one of the two teams that went first so we had to watch the two teams from a monitoring room. It was quite interesting to see their quirks in action. I got to take note of their names as well.

"Next up!" All Might announced with his signature smile. "Team G as the Heroes VS Team B as the Villains!" That was us - Team G. We turned our heads over to Team B, which consisted of one very tall boy with six arms wearing a mask and a shorter boy that had his entire left side covered in ice. I would be lying if I said that I was not even the slightest bit intimidated by them. We made eye contact with them. I wonder what's going on inside their heads? Maybe if the shorter boy's quirk is ice, then I can counter that with my fire breath, but it would really depend on his skill and power. Who knows? My fire breath would be like a lit matchstick next to an iceberg.

I clenched my fists in determination. Whatever the outcome is of this training, I am ready.
