The End of the Battle training

*Meeting room*

"Shinso's quirk is kinda creepy but also so manly," Kirishima said to Ichigo.

"Y-Yes, I find Shinso's quirk a little bit frightening but he is still a great person," Izuku said.

"It is unfair to judge a person by his quirk Izuku." Commented Iida.

"Don't get all stressed out Iida, Izuku wasn't judging; he was just saying that he respects Shinso's strength of character to not use his quirk on innocents and that he didn't turn to villainy even though his quirk was practically made for it.

As Shinso's brother, I can testify it is hard to find someone with Shinso's heart. I know times when we were children, he could have simply brainwashed someone into giving him stuff he liked.

Heck, he could have gotten away with it because nobody remembers being brainwashed by him unless they are on the lookout for it."

"Yes, I also greatly admire Shinso's character." Iida nodded.

As others went back to idle chatter, Ichigo was reminiscing about the first time he met Shinso, and how before Ichigo met with Shinso he didn't have a single friend.

// Flashback //

A kid with indigo-coloured hair which split off into large tufts was standing in front of a canal staring at his reflection and practising his speech.

"Hi, I am Hitoshi Shinso. What are you doing? No, no that is too rowdy.

Hi, I am Hitoshi Shinso. Do you wanna hang out? No, no that is still a bit rude. But maybe...

Hi, my name is Hitoshi Shinso. Can I play with you? Yes! This is the one, it feels more natural."

And so Hitoshi, who finished practising his introduction, went towards the park where he saw a group of kids playing together.

'Today is the day I am going to make some friends.' Shinso thought to himself. Then, as he gathered confidence and was about to speak to the boys when he heard one the boys saying,

"Hey, guys let's get out of here. The mind-control villain is here." He said it loud enough for Shinso to hear it.

"Hey, I'm not a villain, take that back." Shouted Shinso and the other kid looked like he was about to retort before another kid covered his mouth.

"Oi, Aoki, did you lose your mind! If you reply, he might brainwash you. Let's run away!" The boy covering the first boy's mouth said and together they ran away.

Shinso, not being deterred, saw a group of girls playing at the swings so he went there to introduce himself to them.

"Hi, my name is Hitoshi Shinso. Can I play with you?"

"Hi, my name is Sumida Ruriko. Nice to meet you too. Wanna push the swing?"

"Ok," Shinso replied as he went to the back to push the swing when a lady came by and saw Shinso playing with Ruriko.

"You and your devilish quirk should stay away from my daughter. If I ever see you coming near Ruri-chan, I will complain to the orphanage you stay in. Let's go Ruri-chan, don't play with that boy ever again."

As the girl left with her mother, Shinso stood there blankly in the empty playground and after some time, it started raining which finally broke him out of the stupor.

Shinso immediately dropped to his knees and let out a heart-wrenching cry to the sky, "Damn it, damn it, why can't I have any friends? I never used my quirk for anything evil, even then why? WHY!!!?"

He then started pummeling the ground with his fists, making them bloody in the process when a hand reached out and caught his fist. Shinso looked up to see Ichigo from his orphanage staring at him.

"Why Ichigo?! I never did anything evil with my quirk. But everybody still hates me! Why damn it?"

"Who said everybody hates you? You have Sister Lily as a Mother and Sister who loves you unconditionally and you know what? From today onwards you are my brother, even if there is nobody for you, remember I will be there for you."

Ichigo then proceeded to hug Shinso who couldn't help but cry on Ichigo's shoulder, letting all of his pain out.

// Flashback End //

*Meanwhile in Battle Building C*

Match Number 3 : Villain team 7- Katsuki Bakugou and Fumikage Tokoyami VS Hero team 9- Toru Hagakure and Kaminari Denki

//Villain Team//

"Oi, chicken head!" Bakugo called out as he and Tokoyami walked out of the meeting room, "Just leave the clobbering to me, I'll kill those idiots so bad they'll want to die. So don't hold me back and just protect the bomb."

"Wait for a second Bakugou, that's not a good idea. Hagakure is an invisible girl, remember? what if she gets past both of us like that? Kaminari could shock you if you were alone." Tokoyami spoke while ignoring what he was called.

"Tch. As if that Pikachu rip-off could do anything against me. But what do you think we should do?"

"Well you see, my quirk gets stronger in the dark so we should keep the bomb in a dark room which I protect. And you can guard the door so that Hagakure doesn't get through."

"So you want me to be a stupid guard dog!"

'You bark enough to be one after all.' Tokoyami thought but didn't say out loud, "No but you would be a guardian."

Bakugo stopped for a second before grunting, "I guess that's fine."

"Well, I guess I'll set up a few traps that can work in the dark. Like All Might said before, it could slow them down."

"Whatever, it's not like we need them or anything."

Tokoyami stilled at Bakugo's words, 'Was that a Tsundere line?'

"Well that's alright, I'll put the traps myself."

// Hero Team //

"Ok! Now it's finally our turn!" An excited female voice spoke out from an empty spot next to our resident Pikachu.

Said Pikachu was slightly salivating while looking in the direction the voice came from, "Say, Hagakure, you're naked right?"

"Ah! Don't look!" She shouted and the sounds of her running around were heard.

"S-sorry but… where are you now." He said, hoping that he could 'accidentally' run into her.

"Here!" A voice appeared from behind him causing him to jump with a girly yelp.

"Hagakure, please don't do that again."

"Ok but you can just call me Toru. Hagakure's kind of long anyway isn't it."

"R-right. You can just call me Denki too."

"Ok Denki. I guess I should scout out the competition first to look for traps or something like that."

"RIght. But be careful of Bakugo, he did get third in the exam. I heard he got the most Villain points, 7 more than even Ichigo. Plus he seems like the type of person that would easily get mad. Remember he raged at Midoriya before."

"Yes, but we could use that can't we?" Toru said in a wise voice.

"Yes…" Denki replied in a fearful voice, "But do we have to?"

Although he couldn't see it, he knew what he was receiving from the invisible girl was a wide smile that made his heart drop.

"Okay…"

// With Bakugou //

'Where the hell are those wimps?' Bakugo thought while impatiently stomping his foot on the ground.

Just then, he heard a sound and clattered footsteps. He looked to the side and saw Denki who seemed to have frozen upon seeing him. With a feral grin, Bakugo gave chase and Denki ran like the little mouse he is.

Although Bakugo was much faster than Denki, he couldn't use his full speed due to the yellow mouse continuously taking turns through different corridors.

'Damn it! I need to practise my sharp movement.' Bakugo thought to himself but he smirked as he saw Denki trip and fall by himself because of the panic.

"Heh, you're so dead you little rat."

But to his surprise, Denki let out a sigh of relief, "I never expected to make it this far, you know. I thought you would have caught it as soon as you saw me."

His surprise at Denki's sigh turned into confusion, which then morphed into realization, as he shouted "DAMMIT!"

// With Tokoyami //

Being a warrior of the darkness, he was perfectly fine with standing still in it. Although the room wasn't completely dark - a precaution to not lose control, it was dark enough to greatly hamper one's vision.

Creak.

The door opened a bit and no one entered so he immediately sent Dark Shadow to attack the area near the door.

Although it hit no one, he knew someone moved to the left to dodge his attack. He knew this because he set up multiple ropes which entwined over the floor and let him see when people stepped on them.

So that was the start of the one-sided chase. Tokoyami started sending his Dark Shadow to get Hagakure who was trying her best to not be hit by the creature of darkness.

She wanted to get close to the bomb but found that she was too preoccupied with her pursuer. It was getting closer to her with every second and just as it was right above her, a large explosion sounded.

BOOM!!!

The top of the room flew off along with the wall that was blown up and being on the top floor to lengthen the time it would take for the heroes to reach them, all the darkness was removed by the sunlight that entered.

Dark Shadow fell back to Tokoyami who was blinded by the sudden light and Toru saw Bakugo run-in with a rage-filled expression.'

'Chance.' She thought as she ran towards the bomb but as she did that, Tokoyami saw the ropes around her bend down so he ran in to block her himself.

Unfortunately, being the battle genius that he was, Bakugo also noticed it and ran at Toru while pushing Tokoyami to the side. She survived a right hook as she accidentally tripped over some of the rope and as Bakugo was about to kick her while she was down, his leg was grabbed by Denki who had followed him.

"Move!" Toru quickly rolled away at Denki's shout as lightning surrounded him, "Indiscriminate Shock 1.3 Million Volts!"

"Arghhhh!" Bakugou shouted in pain as Toru used that time to quickly tie up Tokoyami who was trapped in the ropes which had messed up due to Bakugo's indiscriminate charge.

"Guhehe." As the lightning stopped, a stupid sound escaped Denki and the smoke around dispersed which revealed him standing with a dopey face and two thumbs being held up.

Next to him, Bakugo was standing with small burns all over him as he growled and slowly walked towards Toru who was skipping towards the bomb.

"Villain team captured, Hero team wins," All Might declared.

*Meeting Room*

"Kacchan is gonna be pissed! In this battle, it was entirely his fault. If Denki had finished Denki or at least waited and guarded the door as he did at the beginning, they would have won. With how powerful Tokoyami's quirk is in the darkness, he could have easily defeated Hagakure."

"Looks like Bakugou's hot temper cost him this battle" commented Iida

As Bakugo came into the meeting room with Tokoyami, "Kacchan don't you need to go to the medical wing?"

"Shut up Deku, it is just a small scratch. I will go there after all the battles are over."

"Oi, oi Bakugou don't be so explosive. Hehe, You lost the match because you blew a fuse at the start of the battle." Shinso just facepalmed at Ichigo's bad puns.

"Anyway, Who do you think will win in the next match Bakugou?" asked Kirishima

Already angry at Ichigo's pun, Bakugou snarled, "I don't care about the battles of some stupid side characters."

'Then why are you staying here instead of going to the hospital wing you tsundere' went through the minds of everyone who heard him.

"I think this battle could either way but for now it is leaning heavily towards Izuku's team," said Ichigo.

*Meanwhile in Battle Building D*

Match Number 4 : Villain team 1- Izuku Midoriya and Hanta Sero VS Hero team 4- Yuga Aoyama and Tenya Iida

//Villain Team//

Izuku started to anxiously fidget around with his fingers as he walked up Building D with Sero.

Seeing this, Sero tried to calm him down, "Oi, Izuku you got to lighten up, we are gonna do fine."

Calming down a little, Izuku immediately started to make a plan.

"Sero, let's make a plan."

"Sure."

"Thank you for cooperating Sero."

"No problem now get on with the plan".

"Okay, I was thinking that if I keep fighting and stop Iida from reaching the bomb then we will lead him into a trap set with your tapes and since Iida has problems in cornering, we can capture him at once"

"Okay, I think this area would work better for the traps we could …."

// Hero Team //

Immediately after entering the building, the hero team started searching for the bomb room. After finding it at the end of a corridor.

"They made the wrong decision to give me this much running space," Iida commented.

Aoyama immediately climbed up onto Iida's shoulder according to some pre-talked plan.

"Aoyama, are you secure? As I am going to go at a very high speed, you may fall."

"Everything is A-ok!" Aoyama said with his classic sparkling grin.

Immediately Iida activated his engines and started running at a very high speed, and then he shouted, "Aoyama, the laser now!"

Aoyama fired his navel laser at Izuku and Sero who had no choice but to dodge and avoid the laser and just as all seemed to be lost for the villain team Aoyama suddenly barfed on and ahead of Iida.

As this was unexpected. Iida was caught unprepared to run on a wet surface and ended up slipping and hitting a wall which knocked him out. Aoyama, who was still dazed by the crash, was quickly captured by a dumbfounded Sero.

"Uh... I didn't expect that." Izuku said, which immediately broke many people out of their stupor from watching such ridiculousness.

"Hero team captured, Villain team wins," All Might declared.

*Meeting room*

There were similar dumbfounded faces before Bakugou burst out laughing followed by many others. Ichigo could see All might's mouth twitch and his figure trembling from trying to not laugh out loud.

"Shitty Elite, got himself knocked out without even a fight," Bakugou said.

As a red-faced Iida and the other members of both teams came into the room and stood beside Ichigo, he couldn't help but make a smartass comment.

"Hey Iida, that was a good plan overall but if you ever want to play Slip and Slide again, let's do it at my home, not in the middle of the battle training."

Iida's blush extended to his neck but he immediately composed himself and said,

"Thank you for the compliment Ichigo, I will pass on your offer though"

Ichigo couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart to Iida's thick face.

All Might then went on to give his criticisms of the battle and whatnot, which Ichigo tuned out for.

"Anyway Iida, what do you think about the upcoming battle?"

"I think the battle might go to either team, with Kirishima's defence style it would take a lot to damage him, and with Yaoyorozu's quirk, she can make anything she wants. What about you Ichigo? What do you think will happen?"

"Oh me? You don't need to ask, this is a complete loss for the hero team."

"But why?" Iida asked confusedly at Ichigo's confident answer.

"Just observe," said Ichigo, trying to act mysteriously and partially succeeding.

*Meanwhile in Battle Building E*

Match Number 5: Villain team 6- Eijiro Kirishima and Todoroki Shoto vs Hero team 3- Yaoyorozu Momo and Mezo Shoji

// Hero Team //

Momo and Shoji were walking through the building and Momo was wearing heat vision goggles that she made. With them, she planned on seeing where both the villains were but she found that one area of the building was blank for her as it was probably frozen by Todoroki's ice.

As there was only one entrance that she could see, she created a shield which she was sure would be able to hold. It was large enough to cover both her and Shoji and was made specifically to hold off against blunt attacks and fire attacks.

// Villain Team //

Kirishima sighed as he thought about his planning with Todoroki.

I don't need your help. Just make sure you don't get in my way.

He let out another sigh as he heard some metal scraping. He hardened his fist and punched the wall as his signal to tell Todoroki that he found them.

// Hero Team //

"What was that sound?" Momo asked after hearing the sound of Kirishima hitting the wall.

"I believe it was Kirishima. It came from that way." He said as he listened through his ear that he had made using one of his extra hands.

"Alright let's go there-" Her words were frozen as she was literally frozen.

"Hero team captured, Villain team wins," All Might declared.

// Meeting Room //

"Wow, looks like they got cold feet."

"Shut Up with your puns!" Everyone shouted at Ichigo who was sheepishly smiling at their reactions. Thus the battle trials on the first day of school were finished.

Hey, readers of Alchemo, you have been caught in the author note trap-inator v1.1, you see for a long time I have wanted a collaborator for the evil scheme of taking over the Fullmetal-MHA crossover area for eternity, so I designed my evil invention the collaborator-inator (Yes, I know it is a mouthful.) and used it on my former fan @Z35T, together we shall take this fic to new heights. Here is a message from him. “Yo! I got turned! Now I have to stay for like 100 chapters.”

Back to the serious stuff, so a lot of guys on different platforms have given some criticism, the following have been accepted and put into effect.

No more author notes in the middle of the fic. Drop the honorifics except in cases like All Might where it is the character’s thing. Stop the battle criticism as it has holes in it and doesn't add anything substantial to the story. Stop the word slips. Thanks for all the reviews and support.
