chapter 10

Dinner was amazing, was all that Izuku could think, Maybe I can get some recipes... Izuku thought as he got up and headed to the Kitchen, Ragdoll was there, she is another member of the 'Wild, Wild Pussy-Cats', after getting closer, Izuku asked the question. "Can I help out?" For some reason Ragdoll, flinched, jumping at his comment.

Looking behind her, she saw a green mop of hair, much like a broccoli, she smiled. "Why not broccoli." Izuku was not expecting the nickname, but put a smile on his face nonetheless, going to her side to help out prepare more dinner, for the group that is still to arrive. "Today is the only day we will make dinner, for the rest of the week it will be the students to feed themselves!" She commented.

Izuku hummed, "Then its great that I'm not a student, today's dinner was amazing, after all." Izuku commented, Ragdoll didn't move, only looking at him with the corner of her eye. "I'm here on a job, Sho- Eraser Head gave me, I will be in charge of analyzing and improving the students quirks. Toga, the girl that came with me, will be in charge of dodging and counter mechanics." Izuku explained, making Ragdoll ease on the glare.

"How can a young kid get a job from him? For what I know, the man is hard to communicate with." She sighed, "He doesn't even talk with me, and I know him for years now!"

Izuku chuckled, "Did you try making him coffee?" Ragdoll only stared at him, "I should start making him his coffee... He should be quite grumpy by now." Izuku murmured as he started preparing a coffee, only leaving vegetables finely cut on the board he was.

About 5 minutes later, he was heading out of the Kitchen and was walking to Aizawa, leaving a cup of coffee in front of the man, and took a seat on his side, shortly after that, Toga sat besides Izuku, "Thanks." Aizawa commented on the coffee, as he happily drank it.

Vlad King and the members of the 'Wild, Wild Pussy-Cats' joined after all the students had returned. Toga seemed to have taken a liking to Vlad King, maybe because both have blood related quirks, they were right now, talking about anatomy and safe places to extract good amounts of blood, without causing blood loss, Izuku thought that that kind of conversation will be really good for Toga, and her way of fighting.

Tiger, the last member of the group that Izuku didn't had meet yet, started conversation with Aizawa, asking things that would be good to do the next day for the training of the students. In that moment Izuku remembered, looking at Aizawa he commented. "I will only help those four with their quirks. I will analyse the others but will not help them directly." Aizawa nodded not even looking at Izuku.

Pretty much everyone at the table stopped to look at their short interaction, all of them thinking of what kind of relationship the two have, everyone except Toga, who knew since the very beginning.

As every student finally finished eating, it was time for Izuku and Toga to head to their rooms and sleep for the night. Izuku was about to say his goodnight, when he got hit in the back of his head, the punch was small and weak, so Izuku's curiosity was taking over him, as he looked behind him and found a small boy. "A kid?" Izuku commented.

Mandalay was quick to catch the situation. "That is my nephew, Kota, Kota say hi." She says as the boy simply 'tched' Izuku. He seems to be a smaller version of Kacchan... Izuku noted mentally.1

"Why would I care for some heroes wannabe? They are even acting as teacher's pets to be seated with his teachers." He grumpily says.

"Kota... They are not students." Mandalay says, making Kota's eyes widen. "They are also not heroes in training."

"I would be closer to a villain, actually." Toga comments cheerfully.

"TOGA!" Izuku yells in disbelief. "But its true Izu! I-" She tried to get her point across, but was stopped by Izuku, "Don't say that, first when you are with lack of blood you don't think straight, second you didn't have a choice most of the times, and now you are working to pay for the crimes!" Izuku explained, making Toga get all giddy. She couldn't stand the awkward sensation much longer, so she got up and headed to her room, blushing madly, at any other time she would be all in to tease Izuku, but since there were many others there she refrained from doing so.

During dinner, everyone on the table already knew Toga's backstory, since it was a requisite to know for her to work there, so they were not surprised by her comment. Kota on the other hand was wide eyed as he saw the girl run to her room and stopped to think the worst. I will have to keep an eye on this two! I have to protect this place!

Izuku then said his goodnight, and headed to his room too. Kota stayed silent with Mandalay as he thought his plan to spy on the two teenagers and get evidence to lock them up. Kota might not like heroes, but he will not allow someone precious to him be in danger.

The next day started early, 5 am and every student and staff was to be up and running laps around the place, training essential, Izuku and Toga accompanied Aizawa as he demonstrated that the objective of this training was to train their quirks and not their bodies. Izuku was impressed with some of the quirks showcased, one of the most underrated quirks was the one Yuyu had, she could extend her arms, and she liked to have her sleeves rolled up because of that.

She was very versatile with her quirk, but she was being pressed by her classmates and other students on how un-hero like her quirk was, resulting in low self-esteem, she was getting more confident with herself, for what Izuku could see thanks to Nejire Hado, Izuku realized her feelings for her, and how both benefited from the relationship.

After that, Izuku started by only spectating the first day, looking at everyone's quirks and taking notes on what they could do to improve, making sure to take extra notes on the four that he liked, Toga had fun, painfully making the students fall and tripping them as she was training them, by Toga's words. 'Let's play a game of catch, everyone can use whatever they want, you have to grab me with a hand, full palm and fingers for more than a second to win!', till now nobody was even close to actually put a finger on her, as she was having fun trowing people all over the place. It was a total of 34 hero-students against a girl one year younger than them, without formal training.

In a summary, she was breaking their pride to pieces, something a hero doesn't need to work, or save people. The way she was fighting off Togata actually impressed Izuku, for what Izuku could tell, Togata had 2 quirks, one that improved his physical strength and another that allowed him to go through things, to fight him, Toga constantly had something inside of him, making so that if he materializes, he would get seriously hurt, she avoided his punches easily, even using his own punches to hit him, by slightly moving his fists as they were about to contact, redirecting them at Togata's face.

Togata was also a big bottle of pride, of one of the strongest, with experience, power and skill to be called the strongest, he was only good at hiding it, but against Toga, he couldn't help but show as his pride was being shattered. This will benefit him without a doubt.

Izuku's note taking was interrupted as he notices a shadow on the corner of his eye, a small body in the shadows of a tree, he could identify who it belong quickly, it was Kota, he had a glare marked on Toga, as he watched her every move, Izuku smiled as he saw Kota innocently following with his eyes as Toga jumped around all over the place.

As he was looking at Kota, a quirk 'accidentally' was aimed at Izuku, a not so big ball of ice, it was about to hit Izuku's face when a knife pierced the ice-ball and made it fall to the floor. Izuku ignored the obviously direct attack to himself, grabbed the knife form the now melting rapidly ice-ball, and trowed it back at Toga, who gave him a smile as she caught the knife.

This training was already showing results as the students are actually starting to think and use their quirks in more innovative ways, their quirks getting stronger and starting to actually get off of Toga's hold, avoiding getting trowed to the ground.

Aizawa made the exercise come to a stop with a whistle, and ordered the students to start preparing their meals. Izuku and Toga joined Aizawa as he headed inside to one of the tables, Izuku prepared Aizawa his coffee while they waited for the dinner to get ready.

"What are your thought on the students?" Aizawa direct to the point asks Izuku.

Izuku starts thinking deeply on it, as he doesn't even realize he started one of his mumbling fits. Aizawa already expecting this, took note of every word that came out of his mouth. "The students can be called canned pride, they simply have too much pride for someone who aims to be a hero, their reflexes are not great, and they don't think on the outside-the-box for their quirks, making them not apt for combat. Most of the students are using their quirks on daily activities for what I could tell, they freely discriminate quirks and the nonexistence of, at least two tried to attack me today, they also started to openly judge and criticize Toga for having a villainous quirk, even though she didn't even use it, Yuyu on the other hand, is a good student, she is smart and knows how to assist everyone, even blocking some stray attacks that were thrown everywhere, Nejire was not bad, but can't really work on group activities, since her quirk uses a lot of area, Tamaki is not bad, he knows the limits of his quirk and showcases great amounts of training, Togata also has great amounts of training on him, but he had great amounts of pride resulting on him choosing wrong things to do, other than that they all are slow to adapt in combat, taking a full day to learn to avoid Toga's attacks is at best awful, but the fact that it was Toga was good? either way, they need more work on their quirk, getting more versatile, and more combat techniques without quirks. Now I need to summa-"

"No need, thanks. Do you have notes?" Aizawa says stopping Izuku's mumbling, nodding Izuku passes a notebook that is already filled with information on every student. Aizawa can't even hide his smirk as he reads through the pages.

Izuku turns to Toga and asks the question that he had the whole day. "Toga, did you notice Kota intense glare at you today?" Izuku asks.

Toga laughs. "Yeah! It was so intense I thought that he was right behind me ready to attack, but when I looked he was shaking on top of a tree, looking at me." Toga explains, "Do you think he has a crush on you?" Izuku mockingly asks, making Toga stop to think a bit. "Its possible!" She says pointing up as she gets up, showcases her beauty, in a comical sense, of course. "I'm cute after all, I'm sure that I have already charmed quite a few~" She finishes with a singing tone as she looks in the corner of her eye to look at Izuku as he blushes lightly while staring at her, making her blush a bit more and get more excited.

Either way, the first day of training was actually pretty interesting for the duo, Toga could stretch her body and have fun, and Izuku could practice his analysis skills freely.
