The next morning Emiri woke up at the crack of dawn with the rest of her classmates. She barely had any time to get ready so all she did was change from her pajamas into her gym uniform. In front of the group was Aizawa, who looked the same as he always did, eye bags and messy hair.

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen." He greeted, looking around at his tired students. "Today we will begin training camp to increase your strength. The goal of this training camp is to increase everyone's strength and with that, for everyone to obtain their provisional licenses. It is to prepare you all to face hostilities that are becoming more real by the minute. Proceed carefully."

Our provisional licenses? But normally students don't get those until their Second Year. Emiri though, could this be because of all the villain attacks?

Aizawa tossed a ball to Bakugo, Emiri recognized it from the fitness test they took at the beginning of the year. "So Bakugo, try throwing that."

"This is from the fitness test." Bakugo said.

"Your previous record, from right after you started school, was 705.2 meters. Let's see how much you'd improved."

Bakugo nodded and stepped in front of the group. He reeled his arm back, "Then, here I go... Go to hell!" He shouted, throwing the ball with a giant explosion to boost the distance of it. Emiri watched as the ball flew through the air and landed somewhere among the trees— there was no way they were finding that ball again easily.

"709.6 meters." Aizawa stated.

That's all? Emiri thought to herself, looking towards Bakugo who had a mixture of anger and shock on his face. The fact that he hasn't improved a lot must be a shock to him.

"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." A smile creeped onto his face, "It'll be so hard you'll feel like dying, but try not to actually die."

A chill went up Emiri's spine at his words. She had heard from sources that the training camp was going to be harder this year compared to previous years, but she was almost convinced they were going to be worked until near death. Hopefully she would improve during her short time here.

"You doing good, Koyama?" Kirishima asked, landing a small distance away from her, his arms hardened.

"Yeah, I'm fine!" Emiri said. Her, Kirishima, and Ojiro were training together— well it was more the two of them attacking Kirishima while the redhead hardened his skin and defended himself from their attacks.

Emiri's training was to focus on strengthening her blades, increasing the time limit she could hold them, as well as increasing the speed that she could transform her limbs from one weapon to another before they went numb. So far, Emiri's blades had a few nicks on them, and she knew for a fact that once she deactivated her quirk she would have cuts up and down her arms.

Emiri heard some footsteps from behind her, and in a split second she turned one of her arms into a shield, wincing as pins and needles spread up from her forearm into her shoulder. But she had managed to successfully block Ojiro's attack and the two of them jumped away from each other, creating some distance between them. So far they had only gotten two hours into training so far. This was going to be a long day.

That night, Emiri sat at a table with her arms laid out in front of her, the pins and needles slowly dying down. They had all stopped training around half an hour ago, and led to an outside eating area where they had some time to relax before dinner.
