The Hero's Horror

Chapter 9: Training

  After Izuku finished "healing up", Aizawa wanted to train him with his quirk. He didn't know that Izuku could control it already, he just knows that Izuku went berserk with it. Aizawa took him to Ground Beta to train his quirk a little.

  "Alright, I'm here if you lose control again. What exactly did you say your quirk did?" Aizawa asked.

  "Pyrokenisis. That's what I heard. I'd assume I can create and control fire." Izuku responded. He was actually trying not to laugh.

  "Okay. Try to create a small bit of fire." Aizawa told him. Izuku took a deep breath and put out his hand.

  A small flicker of fire sprang out for a second before he engulfed it entire arm on propose. Aizawa canceled his quirk. Izuku grabbed his arm as if he was in pain. He burnt off his sleeve for more effect.

  "Ah!" Izuku said grabbing his hand.

  "You almost had it. How much does it hurt?" Aizawa asked.

  "Only a little. I can try again." Izuku said.

  *Damn, I could be a broadway star!* Izuku thought.

  He put his hand out again. This time, he did create a small ball of fire. Super small.

  "Good. Now increase the size." Aizawa said.

  Izuku increased the size trying not to laugh at his amazing act. The ball became the size of his hand. Izuku then let the ball explode.

  Once again, his hand and arm were set on fire. The ground was set on fire a bit too. Aizawa grabbed a fire extinguisher after canceling his quirk. They waited a few moments.

  "Is this too much for you?" Aizawa asked.

  "No no, it's fine! I need to get control anyway." Izuku said determined. Aizawa nodded.

  He kept "trying" to create a controlled piece of fire in his hand. He finally made one at the end of their training.

  "Good. Now go see Recovery Girl and get some rest." Aizawa said. Izuku nodded as he walked to her office.

  "You again? What, a villain kidnapped you again?" She asked.

  "No, just me trying to train my quirk." Izuku said taking a seat. Recovery Girl walked over and checked his injuries.

  "God! Get some handle on your quirk fast! These are some bad burns!" She said grabbing and applying bandages and medicine.

  "Hmm... maybe I did go a little overboard." Izuku said to himself.

He was talking about faking it too hard. Those burn marks would last for months. He sighed as he laid down and Recovery Girl patched him up...

The next day...

  "What happened!?"

  "Are you okay!?"

  "That looks bad!" A bunch of his classmates asked about his burns. Izuku sighed.

  "Yup! I'm fine!" He said taking his seat trying to ignore them.

  "We heard you got a quirk..." Kaminari said. They all looked at him like they wanted a response.

  "What?" Izuku asked.

  "What is it?" They asked. Izuku rolled his eyes and sighed.

  "It's pyrokenisis. It allows me to creat and control fire." He said. Everyone's eyes widened.

  "That's cool!"

  "It's super sick!"

  And so on and so forth. They complimented his new quirk. Izuku sighed.

  "What about my well being? You know I was kidnapped and had this quirk forced upon me, right?" Izuku asked. They stayed silent for a bit.

  "Are you okay?" Mina asked. Izuku chuckled.

  "Is all you wanted was to see my quirk?" He asked. They all jumped back at that.

  "No! I asked if you were okay!"

  "I was just curious! You seemed fine walking in!"

  And so on and so forth.

  For a second there, Izuku thought he felt them sincerely ask if he was okay. That went away when Aizawa started class...

A Few Days Later...

  After Izuku "gained" full control of his quirk, Aizawa decided to train him some more before letting him go.

  "I want you to shoot fire at that wall." He said pointing to a metal wall.

  Izuku nodded as he turned to it with his arm ready. He thrust his arm forward as fire blazed out in a forward motion. A lot torrent of flame emerged.

  Aizawa was surprised to see Izuku using so much firepower already. He found it... suspicious.

  The fire went away as the wall had a hole in it. Molten metal dropped down from the top as Izuku waved his arm a little to cool it off.

  "So?" Izuku asked.

  "I think you have perfect control of your quirk." Aizawa replied. Izuku couldn't tell if he was angry with him.

"Did I do something wrong?" Izuku asked.

  "Well, sorry if I'm speculating, but your power output right there was insane. There's no way that after getting a new quirk, less than a week ago, you already have full control of it." Aizawa said. Izuku sighed.

  "I can see your confusion, but don't think I've only been training here. Everywhere I go I keep a small spark of fire in my hand and keeping control of it. I'd practice at home too." Izuku half lied. He did practice at home, but didn't keep a small spark of fire. He already could control it. Aizawa sighed.

  "Sorry. I didn't think you'd get so strong so fast. I'm impressed by you. You've been doing well in school and here. You are by far one of my best students." Aizawa said. Izuku dipped his head in thanks.

  "That's it for after class training. Since you have full control, it's up to you what you do with it." Aizawa said. Izuku nodded as he began to leave the building to go home.

  *Oh don't worry. I know exactly what I'm going to do with this...*

  Izuku got home as he saw his mother watching TV. Dinner was set on the table for him already.

  Inko didn't even turn to look at him. Their relationship was practically nonexistent. They barely talk to each other anymore. Inko was still worried for him deeply, but she couldn't get close to Izuku. Nobody could.

  Izuku ate his dinner and went to his room. There, he trained his fire. He floated mid air on the middle of his room. He is now able to keep himself in the air for a long period of time, after perfecting it. His connection with the man, All for One, was gone and he didn't know how to contact him. He said that he'd contact Izuku again somehow. Izuku sighed as he finished self training and got some rest...
