Maybe Change is Good

Chapter 4

He wasn't fine.

Okay maybe, just maybe, he was being dramatic. But this place was rough. And he thought Aizawa train was bad.

He had arrived at an off time during the apparent semester, meaning he'd have to catch up. Unlike U.A, the commission was solely based on hero's work and both physical and mental train. If he did happen to have a closely related high school class, it at least had something to do with becoming a pro-hero.

But, because of his sudden arrival, he was having to work two-times as hard. And fortunately, or unfortunately for Bakugou, he had not only his partner to help but also Dante.
See Dante knew his partner, some elf-looking girl who stood a couple of inches higher than them both. At first, he thought she was mute, as she never even opened her mouth the entire time they were supposed to be introduced. He hadn't even been able to get her name until hours later when he regrouped with Dante on training grounds.

"Yeah, Topaz not much of a talker." Dante shrugged from where he sat on the bleacher near the sidelines. He turned to Bakugou, "It took her about a month to open up to me."

"How comforting." The blonde snapped back, crossing his arms as he focused his attention on the fight happening in the ring. Even still Dante continued with his talking, at this point it was something he got used to rather quickly. Thanks to his loud-mouthed team from U.A.

He tried not to think too much about them. It wasn't cause he missed them or thought about how they were doing without them from time to time or anything. He just didn't want to be unnecessarily distracted...but he would send them a quick text whenever he got his phone back. Just to let them know he was doing better than them.

A light pat on Bakugous shoulder had the male quickly turning his attention to Dante, who had stood up with a stretch. He only now noticed the fight had come to a destructive end, and he watched a male who was hauled off the court. The scene reminded him of the sports festival. Memories of Uraraka being hauled away filled his mind briefly before he quickly shook off the thought, turning his attention instead to the grinning boy in front of him.

"Guess it's my turn." Bakugou couldn't tell if he was speaking himself or not, but it didn't seem to matter as the other moved out the bleachers and onto the court as another student did the same.
The fiery blonde let out a huff as he waited for the match to start, his partner sat next to him, not having spoken since they came from their first train class. She watched her apparent friend and classmate start up with the basic parts of fighting, guided by their instructor before they were let loose on their own.

It really was interesting to see Dante fight. The guy was almost always cautions, not just for his sake.

His quirk was impressive enough, as it was based around bold tattoos that plastered on his forearms and upper back. Something Bakugou never had seen until his third night there, as Dante had apparently gotten hot and chucked off his shirt sometime during the night.

At first, he just assumed that Dante had made some stupid decisions and wound up with that as a consequence. But no. That was his quirk. Something he was born with, like a birthmark.

They were cool enough, the two main images on his arms looked like a mix between a dragon and some type of dog, and on his back held some type of circular symbol.
Then the next time he saw them the dragon/dogs were gone and replaced by snakes, then the next some other ungodly creature. Of course, he asked the other about why the hell the things were changing and the male actually shrugged.

"No clue. Haven't figured it out yet, pretty sure they do just because they can. Like, uh, like a reminder that they're alive."

The alive part obviously had Bakugou thinking but after witnessing the other fight later on that day, it was clear that he wasn't kidding.
