'Ugh... man I don't know what was I thinking using one of most infamous internet lines as my alarm'.
Zeraora heads downstairs to the kitchen only to find that Pixie-Bob is notably absent, but instead met with someone else.
'Huh, oh hey, morning Kota.'
"Morning (Y/N)", replied the young boy with his trademark cap bearing two yellow horns on the front.
'Guess this means big sis is out on patrol huh'.
"Yeah".
'Well, anyway I still got some time before I go so I'll make us breakfast'.
"Hey (Y/N)".
'What's up'?
"Aunt Mandalay told me that you're in UA now, right".
'Yeah, that's true.'
"Why, I mean what changed your mind, a while back you didn't care about most heroes and now you going to one of the top hero schools in the country".
'Well for the record, I still don't really care for a lot the so-called pros, but I also dislike villains. I'm only going so I get stronger, and maybe I'll learn what it really means to be a Hero'.
'I know you still hate heroes Kota, and really I don't think I'm the best person to help change your mind about them. But some things can change, and you never know what could happen'.
'Anyway, I gotta go, last thing I need is to have this one particular classmate ranting at me about being late. You can hang in my room if want.'
"Right". Kota looks down solemnly, ever since the loss of his parents, Zeraora has been something of a older brother figure to Kota, he wasn't really on board with the idea that Zeraora was training to be a hero, fearing that he could lose his big brother.
Zeraora makes his way back to the UA campus, while "Sunflower" by Post Malone was being play through his earphones. (I would insert the song, but I'm not sure if it's heavily copyrighted).
The First half of class was rather basic, English class with Present Mic, Mathematics with Ectoplasm, and Modern Art History with Midnight.
The afternoon came around, and the lessons that entire class was really looking forward to.
"Whoa man it really is All Might", Kaminari exclaimed!
"So he is a teacher here this year looking to be super awesome", Kirishima said with excitment.
"Wait, isn't that his silver age costume", Asui questioned.
All Might marches toward the front of the class.
"Welcome, to the most important class at UA High. Hero Training 101, here you will learn the basics of being Pro Hero, and to use your power, skill and knowledge to fight in the name of good".
"But I'm sure you all get idea, after all this is lessons you've been waiting for. So leeet's get right into it. Today's lesson..." All might steps to the stand and pulls out a card from his pocket. "Will pull no punches". He extends his hand out showing the class the card.
Today lesson will be. *Battle*
"Combat Training", Bakugo says in a sinister tone, while Midoriya seemed somewhat worried.
'I'll admit a part of me was pretty excited'.
"And one of the keys to being a hero iiiis, LOOKING GOOD"! All Might points the wall on your left, as four slides opened square slots, each of them labeled with their own numbers.
"These were designed for you based on you quirk registration forms and the request you handed in before school started".
"Once you have dressed yourselves in your costumes meet me in Training Ground Beta where the lesson will be held".
"They say the clothes make the pros, and young ladies and gentlemen, you are the proof".

Everyone exited out of the tunnel with their costumes in full view.
Zeraora's costume:
(Lights up when active)
Your suit is made of a tough but flexible material allowing for free range movement with no drag. Fingerless gloves for your retractable claws. Electrical outlets for free range utility with your quirk. Electro Magnetic soles and palms to cling to any surface, and provide levitation.
Visor Glasses: provide thermal and x-ray vision.
And finally, Your Weapons:
A pair of Beam Sabers for close to mid-range combat, used to channel and focus your lightning. In reference to a Sabre-Tooth Tiger. (Note they're not dual bladed)
All Might's grin widens. "This is starting to get me all excited. You all look so cool"!
Zeraora glances around taking a look some classmates costumes. He noticed Midoriya's costume and immediately realize all the of the All Might references, predictable. Bakugo's costume unsurprisingly fits his aggressive nature, though his gauntlets seem a little impractical.
"Now that you're all prepped and ready, it's time to begin". All Might getting the class' attention.
"Sir", Iida raised his hand while standing beside Midoriya."This is the city from the entrance exam. Does this mean we'll conducting urban battles again?
"Not quite this time we'll be moving two steps ahead"
All Might then proceeded to explain how most Villains would have a secret lair within city and most encounters will be taking place indoors. The exercise will be a practical simulations of these encounters. The class will be put in teams of two, Heroes and Villains. One group will have three members due to the odd number of students.
This caused the class to erupt in an what felt like in endless barrage of questions, with Zeraora's patience slowly dying.
All Might begins laying out the scenario for the exercise. The Villains will be guarding a weapon and the Heroes will have to secure it.
Villains Win Condition: Guarding the weapon until time expires, or detain the Heroes.
Heroes Win Condition: Secure the weapon.
All Might pulls out a box cleverly labeled lots.
"We'll forming the teams via drawing lots. Are you all ready".
"Yes Sir"! The Class replied.
"Team A: Midoriya and Uraraka"
"Team B: Shoji and Todoroki"
"Team C: Mineta and Yaoyorozu"
"Team D: Bakugo and Iida"
"Team E: Ashido and Aoyama"
"Team F: Koda and Sato"
"Team G: Kaminari and Jiro"
"Team H: Tokoyami and Asui"
"Team I: Zeraora, Ojiro and Hagakure"
"Team J: Sero and Kirishima"
With the teams established All Might pull two other boxes. The white one labelled hero, and the black one labelled villain.
He places his hands in both.
"I declare that the first teams who will fight arreee..." He raises two plastic balls. "These guys".
The first combating teams are A and D.
"Team A will the heroes and Team D will the villains".
'Man what luck, this doesn't look like it could end well'. Zeraora thought to himself.
"Everyone else can head to the monitor room to watch".
"Yes Sir"! Most of the class replied.
Everyone headed off to the direction behind All Might.
Midoriya stood still, clearly nervous about the incoming fight. He turned to Bakugo who returned with an threatening glare. Midoriya turned away, with his anxiousness only growing.
Of course this did not go unnoticed by Zeraora.
'Don't let him get to you'.
Midoriya jumped as he turned to you.
'Word of advice, don't focus too much on firecracker over there, he'll likely put his personal vendetta with you first and ignore the exercise. You're on your own for the rest, so try and loosen up'.

Zeraora continued on following the rest of the class.
Bakugo had his gaze on you wondering what you had just told Midoriya.
Small Time skip
All Might led Teams A and D to the building where the battle will taking place then returned to the spectators room.
Using a computer system All Might displayed all the cameras set within the building.
With Midoriya's nerves were slightly loosened after Zeraora's reassurance he braces for his encounter with his opponents, or rather he braces for encounter with Bakugo.
"So this is the weapon we must protect, fake of course". Iida examines.
"Hey! Do you really think that Deku has a Quirk". Bakugo questioned.
"Huh? You saw how he threw the softball , though his power seems to injure his body. Why is it that you always seem so angry when it comes to Midoriya".
Bakugo grits his teeth, utterly enraged.
"That damn nerd and that damn hairball..."
"They been looking down on me since the beginning. I'm gonna roast those bastards, starting with Deku". Bakugo reaffirms himself.
In the spectators room All Might announces for the Teams to begin.
Midoriya and Uraraka enter the buliding, traversing the halls with caution. Bakugo set out to hunt them down and Iida was guarding the weapon.
It was quiet for a moment, but then with no warning Bakugo lunged out delivering a surprise attack with Midoriya quickly pushed Uraraka out of the way.
The encounter then turned to a standoff between Midoriya and Bakugo, effectively confirming Zeraora's earlier statement.
Bakugo rushes towards with his signature right hook, but then Midoriya counters with an over-the-shoulder throw slamming Bakugo into the ground. The maneuver had Zeraora surprised and impressed.
'Finally putting your knowledge and obsession with heroes to use huh'? Zeraora thought to himself.
Uraraka makes a get away to try locate and secure the weapon leaving Midoriya to deal with Bakugo on his own. He tried to use the capture tape to remove Bakugo from the battle, however Bakugo's excessive combat style forced him to retreat.
Meanwhile, Uraraka managed to locate the weapon is met with Iida who cleared the room of any items that she could use against him limiting her offensive options.
Midoriya and Bakugo faced each other once again, Bakugo bearing a menacing gaze unveiled a hidden function with his gauntlets. Stored nitroglycerin, as he fire a full blast at Midoriya, causing a loud rumble and sending ground vibrations through the building.
All Might frantically spoke through the speakers the check on Midoriya's status after the blast. Things were looking pretty grim for him.
Iida was shook from the tremor caused by Bakugo attack, seeing an opportunity Uraraka made herself weightless and attempted to lunge towards the weapon, but Iida with superior speed move the weapon out of her reach, causing her to crash into a wall.
Midoriya was able to somewhat avoid the enormous blast however he still took some damage. Bakugo was looking rather pleased with the results of his attack, until...
"Bakugo! If you use that stored power again I'll stop the match immediately, resulting in your loss". All Might demanded.
"Huh"? Bakugo questioned.
"Launching an attack like that indoors within you own stronghold that you're supposed to be protecting is a poor strategy! That goes for both the Heroes and Villains. Attempt it again and you will suffer a massive loss in points."
Bakugo's aggravation only grew more as propelled himself forward attacking Midoriya at close range.
The class gasped as the fight began to escalate even more than it already as. Bakugo demonstrated impressive skills and his brutality.
"He only needs to wrap the capture tape around him, not kill him". Ashido said concerned.
"He is certainly showing the traits of a villain, however this excessive". Tokoyami added.
Midoriya picks himself up and run towards the window. His suit was torn and burnt. He stops and faces Bakugo who was walking confidently to him, while also exchanging words.
Zeraora noticed a new resolve burning in Midoriya as the two lunged towards each other for one more clash.
"Sir you need to stop them, they're going to kill each other"! Kirishima shouts worried.
All Might continues to hesitate, something that Zeraora found very questionable and suspicious
"That is enou-" All Might stops midway before looking up to the screen with Uraraka, as she grabs one of the pillars lifting it from the ground with her quirk.
Midoriya's punching arm changes direction going for an upward strike.
Finally, Bakugo's attack connects, however the shock wave from Midoriya's punch drill through the building with the windows shattering in rapid succession.
The class then looks up to Uraraka, who using the pillar launched the debris created from Midoriya's attack at Iida, causing him to guard himself.
With the opening she needed Uraraka made one more jump for the weapon and finally secured it.
All Might Announces victory for the Hero team.
Zeraora's eyes widen from what as occured. It was the first time he as ever seen Midoriya beat Bakugo in anything. Speaking of Bakugo, Zeraora noticed a distinct broken expression on Bakugo's face.
Some medical bots came and took Midoriya out of the training grounds, while in the spectators room All Might declares Iida as MVP with Yaoyorozu giving a very extensive breakdown to why.
"Now then with that out of way it's time for the match"! All Might gets the classes' attention as he repeats the selection process again.
"That next match will beeeee, these guy"! He says drawing Teams B and I.
'Looks like him up'. Zeraora says to himself.
All Might bring the two teams to a different building since the last one is a bit too damaged.
With a quick reminder of the rules and the teams in position, All Might announces for the match to begin.
"Hey Ojiro, Zeraora I'm going to take off my gloves see I can totally disappear". Hagakure informs her teammates.
The plan was to stay and guard the weapon but then Zeraora's ears twitched as he picked up a sudden drop in the temperature.
The entire build has frozen over with the trio now stuck. Ojiro and Hagakure were struggling while Zeraora was assessing the situation. But then their attention was directed at footsteps coming from entrance of the room.
"I figured you would all be in one place". Todoroki said calmly.
Ojiro stands guard. "Pry yourself up If you want, but it might hard to fight me with no skin at the bottom of your feet". As Todoroki slowly approaches the weapon with his victory seeming to be all but certain.
Zeraora suddenly broke free from the ice delivering a roundhouse kick to Todoroki's waist. With his guard down Zeraora laced his leg with electricity and kicked Todoroki out of the room, and using his Thunder Fangs released his teammates from the ice and signaled them to stay with the weapon.
Todoroki was recoiling and Zeraora stepped down as the two were now two floors below the weapon.
"Looks like you're better than I thought". Todoroki regains his bearings.
'If he froze the entire building that would mean his partner is still outside, and judging from his demeanor he so sure that he would win with just one move'. Zeraora evaluates the situation.
'This guy might be worse than Bakugo, well than let's see if that attitude holds up'. Zeraora ejects his claws and enters his battle stance.

Anything.In this Game, some were assigned to be heroines, others as martyrs, and even some as love interests.And it just so happens that my assignment is simple: be the villain.-----------------Hey guys!
