SHOTAs P.O.V

The class was aboard the coach as we headed towards the training camp. Looking behind me, I saw the chaos that usually pursued in the classroom happening within the bus. A much smaller space.

Deciding they wouldn't hear a thing I said, I faced forward again until I heard Mineta scream. Looking back I saw him stuck to the roof of the bus by his quirk. Everyone was now quiet.

Looking to his seat mate I noticed it was Midoriya and could only assume he'd made a comment which resulted in her using her quirk to send him up and into the roof. Standing, I faced them all “Midoriya, here. Someone help Mineta from the roof.” Midoriya made her way over and I stepped as much to the side as I could to let her get to the window seat.

Sitting next to her, she was just looking out the window.

“Midoriya, you can't just bottle up your emotions! Talk to someone, or write about it. I know you struggle in understanding what you're feeling sometimes, but don't let it get the better of you. It'll only make you feel worse.”

Letting out a breath, at remembering Midoriya's therapists words, I asked “What happened?”

She just huffed and I raised an eyebrow “Okay... Tell me, how'd he make you feel?” She looked at me and asked “What, are you my therapist now?” I hummed.

“Angry? You're surely familiar with that feeling, you're friends with Bakugo.” She smiled slightly and nodded. “So we're in agreement, he made you angry?” She nodded again and finally looked to me “He was making comments about my body for a start, I told him to stop and that no one will like him if he pervs on everyone.” I nodded and she glared at me “Just answer me when I've finished, I don't need to know you're listening right now!”

I let out a breath, beginning to wonder how the therapist handles all her different patients and their changing emotions.

She raised an eyebrow towards me, I wanted to ask what it was she expected me to do but just decided on giving a thumbs up. She nodded and continued “He then responded that no one liked me because I'm useless... It just hit a nerve I guess.” I waited a bit before nodding “Of course it did, but that doesn't excuse you throwing him into the bus ceiling... Although, good job on that.” She grinned but I quickly pointed at her “But it's still not a healthy way to release your emotions.” She rolled her eyes “Since when did you pay so much attention to Miss Ishii?”

“It's for your own wellbeing Midoriya.” She leaned back into her seat “So, you're going to tell her and she's going to give me a list of ways to control my anger?” I shook my head “No. No real damage came from it... but don't start doing it for no reason, even I shouldn't condone that.” She laughed slightly before saying “Thanks Mr Aizawa.” I shook my head and closed my eyes “No, thank you.”

Y/Ns P.O.V

Managing to land safely on the ground in front of the forest with the use of my quirk upon being thrown by the ground below us, I looked around to see some of my classmates laid and in a pile.

We all just watched as they drove away after telling us we had three hours, unless we wanted to miss lunch. Mintea rushed into the forest but was stopped by a forest beast. Everyone jumped into action whilst I remained in my spot.

My quirk wouldn't really provide much man power to the fights and even when the class took down a few, more just appeared. I tried to yell “Guys, you're just going to waste your energy, let's just avoid them. Pixie Bob isn't going to actually let them do us severe harm.” However, it fell upon deaf ears as yells and explosions went off.

Deciding to just let them do as they please, I went into the air, getting into the canopies of the trees. Jumping from branch to branch to not rely so heavily on my quirk.

Making it to a clearing in the forest, I jumped down, Pixie Bob yelling “How'd you make it past my forest beasts?” I pointed up to the top of the trees “My quirks not offensive and seen as I knew they were controlled by a hero, I knew they wouldn't be a major threat. Also, fighting them when you can make an endless amount is just pointless. The trip through the forest would take a toll on a normal person, so imagine adding the exhaustion of continuous fighting.”

All of the wild, wild pussy cats just stared at me. They then turned to Aizawa who was smirking “Well done Midoriya, but you'll be lucky to find an actual battle that you can get away with by just going around it.” I nodded before pointing back into the forest “I did suggest the idea to all of them but they were already mid battle.”

He shook his head “I didn't mean you should have helped them... The point of you going through the forest was to prove you can defend yourself.” I nodded slowly before suggesting “I can go back in.” He let out a breath “No... Eat lunch and then we can do some hand to hand combat. Then you'll have to prove you can defend yourself.”

Nodding I asked “Will you all be eating as well?” Aizawa sighed and turned to the wild, wild pussy cats “I'm going to go inside with Midoriya.” They all nodded.

Once inside I asked “Was I meant to come in and eat by myself?” He shook his head “The idea was that the whole class would make it here at the same time, and then we'd all come in and supervise.” I nodded.

Whilst eating, I asked “Should I have stayed with my class?” He nodded “Yes, that way you would have had someone with you if something went wrong. However, getting here alone proves that you were able to move without detection, an important skill which contributes towards defending yourself.”
