Chapter 10: Hero Basic Training…

[POV Reo]

Once again I looked at my suit... armor... or whatever you want to call it. The armor was made up of metal plates stitched on fibres. The fiber they used can be easily termed as clothes but it wasn't a cloth at the same time. It was needed for flexibility. But that also means that my armor has some gaps.

I entered the waiting room of ground beta and saw that all of the students were checking out each other's costumes. For now, nobody paid any special interest in me because it wasn't something extraordinary and on top of that, I didn't go out of my way and became the top-ranked student in the Quirk Apprehension Test. Naval Laser (I actually forgot his name after he introduced himself so I am just gonna use his superhero name, for now) and Iida also had suits like mine... so nothing special.

Only two students were carefully watching me, one of them was obviously my Momo-chan, who was checking me out from my head to toe with hungry eyes. I obviously returned the favor because it was the first time I saw her in her Hero Costume. I have seen her in the anime wearing that excuse of a suit, but this and that was different. Watching her in real life while she was wearing that costume is... ah, I need to stop thinking about that, or I will get a boner for the rest of the training.

And the other was that creepy stalker fanboy... ugh. Fuck... brat!! Don't watch me like that, people will get the wrong idea. I can already guess what the fanboy must be thinking 'Why does he have to wear armor? What does this have to do with his Quirk? The armor seems to give him a lot of defense while also giving him enough mobility. Wait! Could it be that?! His Quirk gives him major weakness?' Ugh... can you be any more obvious??

"Looking good future heroes" All Might's voice was suddenly heard and he gestured towards our costumes with a thumbs up while he still had that huge grin on his face. Thank God... this made that creepy stalker turn his attention to him... I could clearly see his eyes twinkling.

"Well then... for this exercise, all of you will be put into teams of two and face off with another team. One being the heroes and the other being the villains. Afterward, you will face in two vs two indoor battles" All Might said with his usual fervor.

After that, he explained how Villains will be protecting the nuclear warhead on the upper floors of the building while the Heroes will try to immobilize the villains or gain possession of the nuclear bomb. The villains would try to stop the heroes from getting their hands of the bomb by immobilizing them or if they delay the heroes until the timer runs out.

Then we were divided into teams, I am so glad that I was paired with Momo. No more unnecessary explanations are needed. Though I shouldn't be so surprised because in canon Momo and that creepy purple pervert were paired together who was throughout the exercise ogling her chest. Now that I have taken his place in this class, I don't have to worry about Momo getting harrassed continuously by the pervert. I might kill him if he pervs on Momo.

"Tell me how glad are you to be paired with me?" Momo asked me with a grin on her face.

"A lot... you know how much I hate to explain my Quirk to other people...?" I asked her and even though she rolled her eyes, she still nodded her head. " And there is also the fact that I could stare at you all I want, you look amazing in that costume, by the way" I told her. We were the Villian team and we were going to fight against Denki Kaminari and Kyoka Jiro Hero team.

"As a matter of fact, you do too... I clearly saw a few girls checking you out, anybody you are interested in?" her mischievous tone really amused me.

"No... I am only interested in you" I said in a serious tone that seemed to make her happy.

"For that, you are going to have a nice reward later" Momo said and winked at me. Yosh... I can only imagine what kind of reward it will be. That also means that we have to win or my reward could be revoked.

The first fight was between Izuku Midoriya and Uraraka Ochako (Hero Team) VS Katsuki Bakugo and Tenya Iida (Villian Team). Well, the fight was exactly like it happened in the canon. Nonsense spouting about this and that. After the fight, All Might asked us if we learned something from the fight or not which Momo happily answered. Well, she is my little genius she would obviously know about this stuff.

The second fight was between Shoto Todoroki & Mezo Shoji (Hero Team) VS Toru Hagakure & Mashirao Ojiro (Villian Team). Same as what happened in the canon. After only a minute I stopped paying any attention to the fight. It wasn't that I was overconfident or arrogant but it was the same as what happened in canon so I stopped paying attention.

The third fight was between Fumikage Tokoyami & Tsuyu Asui (Hero Team) VS Eijiro Kirishima & Hanta Sero (Villian Team). In anime, this fight was never shown. So I watched this fight with slight interest. Due to their nice planning, the Hero Team came out victorious.

The fourth fight was ours... Momo and I entered the building and went towards the Nuclear Bomb we had to guard. While Denki Kaminari and Kyoka Jiro were waiting downstairs for the timer to start.

"So how are we going to do this?" Momo asked me.

"Make me as much Iron dust as you can" I told her.

"I could make a lot... you are going to owe me an extra cheese pizza" after saying that, she started pouring out Iron dust from her hands.

"Happily" I commented. She continued making Iron dust, when she made enough for me to use, I placed my hand on her shoulder stopping her. I immediately raised my hand the iron dust rose up and immediately left the building through the window and some through the door. All of them rushed towards the hero team who have now started climbing the stairs.

[With Denki & Jiro]

"So what's the plan?" Jiro asked Denki. "You aren't planning to take them head-on, right?" Jiro again asked Denki.

"Of course not, I don't even know what Quirk they have" Denki replied.

Both have just entered the building and decided to make their way toward the upper floors.

"Momo has Creation Quirk, she can make anything non-living but it has limitations too. Though I don't know anything about Itsuki Reo... in fact, nobody knows" Jiro told Denki.

"I think his Quirk has to do something with strength! Didn't you see how he threw that ball?" Denki asked Jiro who nodded her head. Though Jiro wasn't so sure because if that would have been the case then he would also perform well in the grip strength test.

"Ok then, I will use my Quirk to sense their position" Jiro said to Denki while sticking her earphone in the wall.

"Odd they don't seem to be moving at all but I am also hearing some buzzing sound... like small insects" Jiro said with a frown on her face, Denki looked truly confused. With each passing second, the noise kept increasing. Suddenly it dawned on her but it was too late. The glass on the windows shattered and the whole place was filled with Iron dust. Iron dust could also be erupting from the stairs.

Both of them were immediately submerged within the sea of Iron sand and the Iron immediately gripped their bodies and it started to slowly cascade their whole bodies except their heads.

"Don't try to use your power, I will be electrocuted!! This is Iron dust!" Jiro exclaimed in panic. She didn't know if Denki's own electricity would hurt him or not but it would definitely hurt her.

"I can't even move my fingers... looks like we lost" Denki said understanding the situation but that didn't mean he was happy.

[With Reo & Momo]

"I got them. They are completely immobilized and if Denki uses his power then Jiro gets fried" I told Momo.

"That's truly evil you know... you would have made an awesome villain" Momo said. Both of us decided to head downstairs.

"Villian Team Wins" All Might's voice was heard. With his announcement, the battle is finally over. I let go of my hold on the iron sand and the iron sand dropped on the ground freeing both Denki and Jiro.

[Moments before in Viewing Area]

All Might and the rest of the students had their eyes glued to the screen. They were watching the live feed of Reo, Momo, Jiro & Denki.

"... It's unfortunate that we can't hear what they are saying" Mezo spoke to everyone. Some other students completely agreed with him so they just nodded their heads in agreement.

"What is Momo doing?" Tsuyu asked Ochako and Mina. Momo was now making some kind of dust.

"I think that is Iron dust" Ilda suddenly said gathering everyone's attention. They again turned towards the screen.

The next moment they saw the iron dust leave through the window and stairs because of Reo's small gesture.

On the other screen, they saw Jiro sticking her earphone in the wall. Everyone was confused seeing that except the girls.

"What exactly is she doing?" A guy with thick lips asked.

Ochako decided to answer that "She is trying to sense her opponent's position. She can use her Quirk like that".

Suddenly they saw iron dust erupt in the Hall where Denki and Jiro were standing and started to wrap around them.

"He can control metals... that must be it. I know what Momo's Quirk is, this must be Reo's Quirk." Mina said.

"Young Reo is also smart, now if Young Denki uses his Quirk then he will also hurt his own teammate" All Might said. He was too interested in this fight. 'Young Midoriya, you are going to have to work harder.'

[With Reo & Momo]

Well, it was a quick fight if I have to say. I wonder who will receive the MVP? Honestly, I don't give a flying fuck whoever gets MVP. Denki and Jiro looked somewhat annoyed, nothing I can do. I like my girlfriend happy and nice, so why the hell would I hold back and lose so that she would glare a hole in me?? Hah... fat chance.

Like I have thought I was declared the MVP because of my quick thinking and all. After that, All Might gave them some of his encouraging words, which seemed to work like wonder because their mood seemed to change.

The last fight was between Yuga Ayoma & Mina Ashido (Hero Team) VS Rikido Sato & Koji Koda (Villian Team). The fight was interesting. This fight was also not shown in the anime. Rikido Sato & Koji Koda finally won because of their divide and conquer strategy.

Looks like this is the end for today... I can't wait for the reward I will be getting from Momo...
