The next day... [Internship Day 3]

Kyoro was lying on the floor scrolling through his phone, not in his plasma form. Above him, Mirko has fell asleep and Gaia was taking advantage the of this, having placed Mirko's head on her lap. Kyoro looked up from his phone with squinted eyes.

'What the hell have we been doing?' Kyoro thought before standing up and looking out the large glass wall over looking the city of Hosu. It was about night time and he and Mirko hadn't done a lick of hero work. Kyoro turned to Mirko and Gaia with a frown.

"Get up." Kyoro said nudging the two women. 'Geez... she is like the size of a teenager, she looks even smaller compared to Gaia, who's about 5'10".' Kyoro said nudging the two again. Kyoro sighed before walking to the kitchen. He opened a cabinet above a microwave and saw his weapon of choice. Taking out the spray can of whip cream, he walked back in front of the two. "Sucks to be them." Kyoro said covering his right hand completely in whip cream. Kyoro nodded to his hand and extended his right hand outward.

Quickly, he slapped the absolute shit out of Mirko, and then did the same to Gaia. The two woke up and looked around frantically before feeling their faces. They looked forward and saw Kyoro was now in his hero outfit. "We've got work to do. You need to get dressed. And you need to stop being horny. You're not Zeus." Kyoro said to Mirko and Gaia respectively. The two glared at him but complied to his orders.

Gaia was now back in the core with an irritated face.

"I didn't realize it before, but that's an insult." Gaia said about Kyoro's Zeus comment.

The pro hero and the hero in-training were now outside of the apartment building and in their hero suits. Passerby easily recognized the two, Mirko being a top 10 hero, and Kyoro winning the sports festival. People began to gossip and talk about the team up, sharing it throughout the media. Kyoro glanced around Mirko and saw she had a slightly annoyed gaze.

"I just remembered." Mirko started as she began walking, Kyoro following. "What's up?" Kyoro asked. "The last reason I picked you. I planned to pick whoever won the sports festival to work with me to take down the Hero Killer: Stain." Mirko exclaimed. "I've heard about him. He fatally wounded one of my classmate's relatives." Kyoro said with a frown. "So, in these last three days, we'll be searching for him. Since it's already dark out, odds are, he's out here somewhere looking for his next victim. Think you can handle that?" Mirko asked. "Of course." Kyoro answered bluntly. "Alright. Here's my number in case we get split up." Mirko said holding out her hand. Kyoro gave her his phone and she inserted her number before handing his phone back.

"So, where do we start—" Kyoro was cut off by a loud boom from blocks ahead. The two looked at each other before swiftly taking off. The two ran down the street seeing buildings catching on fire and even more explosions. The two made it to the center of the commotion as civilians ran away.

In the middle of the street we're three creatures with resemblance to Nomu, the creature from USJ. Kyoro's mind snapped as he glared at the creatures. Mirko jumped into the action and Kyoro was about to follow but he saw Izuku across the street. Kyoro quickly ran towards him but saw him run off. Kyoro looked back and forth between Izuku's direction and the Nomus before clicking his tongue and facing the Nomus. Kyoro saw Endeavor, Mirko, and an elder man taking on the three Nomus by themselves, with support from lesser known heroes.

'Do I help? Can I help?' Kyoro asked seeing the three easily fight off the villains on even ground. Suddenly, Kyoro's phone vibrated in Morse code. Kyoro took it out and saw Izuku had shared his location. Kyoro immediately put his phone away and threw a vine at a rooftop. 'I'm coming, Izuku!' Kyoro said before running at full speed.
