Chapter 66 - The camp begins!

...

<Inside a bus in the middle of highway...>

In the middle of a highway near a mountain a school bus could be seen which inside was carrying the 20 students of Class 1A. Not far behind this bus was one exactly like it, only with the difference that the class inside was the sister class of Class 1A, Class 1B.

While all the other students were talking excitedly, Lena was leaning back in her seat with her eyes closed while in her ears a pair of headphones played music. She still felt quite tired even though she had spent the whole night sleeping as if her life depended on it.

Next to the Class sprinter was Kyoka, who also had a pair of headphones in her ears. Kyoka, who looked a bit more muscular, was looking at the window calmly while her fingers and jacks were moving to the music.

Both girls were listening to the same playlist that belonged to Kyoka while discreetly holding hands.

"Fufufufu... Momo are you watching the same thing as me?" Muttered Toru to her partner of nodded with a mischievous smile, though no one could see that smile.

Momo meanwhile simply looked out the window though her cheeks were a bit flushed. "I don't think you should spy on them Toru... Kyoka is going to be mad if she finds you out..."

"I know, but that's the fun of it!" Toru exclaimed before lowering her voice so she wouldn't get caught. "I wonder if they're dating already or if they're just taking baby steps?"

"I don't think they are dating...yet" Momo spoke firmly mumbling the last part. "As far as we know Lena has never had any relationship and Kyoka, well we don't know but I bet she has never had anything either because of how she is so sensitive before those topics and double meaning jokes..."

"So you think they have something too!" Toru spoke in a teasing tone making Momo blush as she realized how into it she was. "So...how about we play a little game?"

"What kind of game?" Momo asked squinting her eyes warily. 

"Let's bet on who declares herself to the other first! My vote is for Lena!" Toru murmured even when Momo had not decided whether to participate or not.

"It's your loss, I choose Kyoka!"

And as both girls continued to talk and discuss about the relationship between the speedster and the rocker. Neither of them noticed that Kyoka was listening to them with a frown and blushing cheeks.

<Pov - Third Person>

"With sparkling eyes we rock!"

"Cute singing cat!"

Lena's mind shut down as a feeling of disappointment washed over her making her reel. Her look was so dead that the Reaper himself would be ashamed to be called Death.

"With you...Wild Wild Pussy Cats!"

In front of the entire Class stood two very beautiful ladies who looked to be in their early twenties. 

The first one had short brown hair with a fringe between her brown eyes, she was dressed in a red top similar to a marching band uniform which left her belly exposed, she wore a large frilly skirt and a reddish brown tail. She also wore a strange helmet shaped like cat ears.

The second of her had light blue eyes that matched perfectly with her blonde hair, she was dressed in a light blue top similar to a marching band uniform, which leaves her belly exposed, a large frilly skirt and a blue tail with darker blue stripes. She also wore a kind of helmet with a transparent visor simulating the ears of a cat.

These two women were none other than the Professional Heroines Pixie-Bob and Mandalay who made up half of the Professional Wild Wild Pussy Cats Team, the other two members being Tiger and Ragdoll. Thanks for the info Midoriya, now we know you like furries, who knew you could stoop even lower.

"God knows how those tails hold up..." Lena commented with a murmur as she looked at the two women doing their strange dances. The other people who heard her murmur either blushed or simply ignored the comment. "Oh! Forget it actually they are connected to the belt."

While Midoriya was getting his ass kicked for calling Pixie-Bob old, Mandalay quickly explained to us that much of the forest belongs to their Hero Team and that at the base of a mountain a little ways away is their base-.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

Wait a damn minute!

"It's 9 o'clock" Mandalay spoke as a sinister smile crept up her face, the students began to run towards the bus in search of shelter. "You have until 12:30 to get to the base of the mountain kittens, if you miss you'll be without your food!"

Before we could do anything, suddenly the ground collapsed beneath us sending it straight into the forest with what appeared to be a landslide caused by Pixie-Bob's Quirk. Lena quickly used her boots to cushion the impact by moving away from the area of the landslide.

"Venture into this forest of magical beasts!" Came Mandalay's voice from above. "Show me what you are made of UA Students!"

Before even Lena could complain about the situation, a sound of footsteps caught her attention she turned her head toward the noise-!

!!!

She quickly dodged the attack by taking a step back before responding with a hard punch to the jaw. The thing that attacked her appeared to be some sort of saber-toothed thing made of earth, with Lena's punch the creature dissolved into the earth as if nothing had happened.

'I guess someone is controlling these things, maybe it was the same person who did the cave-in up there' Lena thought as she looked at the place where the creature had dissipated. 

"Mandalay said her base was at the base of the mountain..." Mumbled Lena to herself before turning around and starting to run through the forest. "With my Quirk this will be a piece of cake..."

"Wait for me food be there I go!!!"

<Magical Beast Forest 13:12> <PoV - Kyoka>

"It's getting late..." Kyoka muttered in frustration as she jumped from branch to branch with ease. Training with Edgeshot had made her much more agile and flexible than she was before along with a set of skills she didn't possess before such as stealth in her footsteps. 

In addition, her body felt lighter and stronger thanks to the training routine Lena had made her and had followed ever since. The lanky Kyoka now possessed a lean but defined body which added an athletic touch to her appearance.

'The others must have already arrived... no, considering the distance and that only a few of us have' Kyoka thought as her Jacks began to move unevenly.

Suddenly Kyoka changed direction to the left before resuming her original course.

While she was now much more athletic than before it didn't mean she had absurd stamina like others in her Class like Lena or Kirishima. She knew that while she would have no trouble when facing the earth monsters she would spend a lot of stamina and time which she didn't have. So she decided on avoiding as much combat as possible to save energy, which was very easy thanks to her Quirk and her Secondary Quirk that made her more sensitive to sound than other people.

'I just hope they saved me some food...'

<Japan Wild Pussy Cats Base 14:57>

"Are you sure we didn't go overboard with this?" Mandalay asked Aizawa, both of them were sitting inside the mess hall of the Wild Wild Pussy Cats base. "I mean, they're just freshmen..."

"These kids need to learn how to stand on their own, they have great potential to grow up to be great Heroes that everyone remembers. But that can only happen if we push them to their limits" Replied Aizawa as he stopped pouring drops in his eyes, that attack from Nomu had been no joke. "The HPSC is rushing the apprenticeship of all first to second year students with the goal of obtaining new Heroes to represent a new Generation of Heroes, one where All Might will no longer be the Symbol of Peace"

"But why?" Mandalay narrowed her eyes as he looked at Aizawa. "I don't understand why they want to start making the change right now."

"All Might is old, everyone knows that. Even Hero Number 1 you can't escape the curse that is time" Aizawa replied with dryness in his voice as he gave Mandalay a smirk. "I honestly don't care about the politics of it all, but I want to see with my own eyes what these students will become when they become true Heroes..."

'Though perhaps there is someone who can reverse the doom that time represents...' Aizawa thought to himself as the image of a certain girl popped into his mind.

...

A/N: So college has started and I'm already getting my ass kicked. They decided to cut a month of classes in exchange for being twice as demanding because of the lack of time, which means: constant exams and no rest. Although the good thing about this is that I only need two months to finish this semester (at the end of February) and go on vacation, it's annoying because it twists my plans and cuts into my time (plus it's annoying for you guys too). 

It may take 3 to 4 days to post something which is stupidly annoying, although looking at things it could even be a week if things get really bad.
