The next day I stayed with Classes 1-A and 1-B whilst Shota strictly instructed Mina, Hanta, Rikido, Eijiro and Denki on how to increase the power of their quirks.
I worked closely with Uraraka and Aoyama as Shota had told me of how they barely passed their previous quirk tests.
"Okay, Elphaba and Sparkles, you've really got to work on resilience," I said, clapping my hands together. "What are the side effects of each of your quirks?"
"I get a funny tummy," Aoyama complained.
Uraraka nodded in agreement, "I get nauseous."
I nodded, "Well, unfortunately, the only way to stop that is to continuously use your quirk for gradually longer intervals. It's not going to be easy, but if you keep on doing it then you'll eventually get stronger and be able to use your quirk for longer." I held out both of my hands, "let me show you something."
They both took my hands, Aoyama, with the tips of his fingers as if picking up a tissue.
I immediately activated my quirk, looking around at students frozen in their fighting positions.
"I can hold my quirk without breaking for about 11-12 minutes, 17 at a push." I took my hands out of theirs.
"And I've been working on extending it without physical touch for a while now."
The two looked around them.
"I can do that for 4 minutes and 24 seconds. If I go past that there's a risk of passing out or going into a coma if I really push it. But it hasn't got that far yet."
I grabbed their hands again and deactivated my quirk.
"If I use my quirk in short intervals, I can last in a battle for about 3 hours, but they don't usually last that long, and it's only when I'm really tired or overwhelmed when my quirk risks going out of control."
"That's so cool!" Uraraka gushed, jumping up and down a bit.
I smiled, "When I was your age, I could hold it for about 1 minute before getting a horrible migraine. But I managed to get out to 3 minutes after a few months of training. I started working on taking people with me when I was around that age too. Although I only started letting go of people and keeping them in my quirk's hold a few months ago after the fire."
I smiled at the two with closed eyes, "But you guys are much more determined than me, I have full faith that you'll be able to control your quirk for longer after a few weeks of training."
They both nodded, "so that's what I want you to do. Push yourselves. Not enough to pass out, but enough to feel the resistance start to build up."
"You two need to work hard if you want to stay on this course." Shota walked over to us and looked sternly at the pair.
"Yessir!" Uraraka nodded furiously and Aoyama saluted.
I waved goodbye to Sparkles and Elphaba and then walked around the students, giving them thumbs up after they finished demonstrating their quirks.
"Great work Momo." I smiled at the girl who was training her agility whilst materialising a metal rod from her bare skin, she smiled back and turned back to her work.
Bakugo had his hands in a bucket of water and was trying to set off explosions beneath the surface, "You need to concentrate your quirk into your hands. If you're planning to use your quirk without the help of that nitroglycerine sweat of yours, you have to make sure you're 10x more focused on your hands. Imagine every nerve ending in your hands and how it usually feels when you let off an explosion." He growled at me in response but I could see his brows furrow in concentration, an explosion disrupted the stillness of the water. "Good job blasty boy," I smirked, to which he growled at me even louder than before.
"I want you all to remember your fundamental drive, it will help you progress and improve," Shota announced out loud to all the students, making them all crowd around him.
"Aizawa-Sensei, will any more teachers be joining us?" Midoriya asked.
"No, we only came with the minimum amount of personnel needed to help with Class 1-A and Class 1-B's training, so no. No more teachers will be arriving."
Ragdoll jumped forward, "We also had All Might stay away as he's a target for villains."
I quietly scolded myself at the excitement I had felt when Midoriya told me that All Might might've been coming on this trip, of course, he wouldn't come, that would just put the students in danger.
I was just being selfish, wanting to meet the no.1 hero and all.
"On a lighter note, tonight we'll be playing a game, a true test of courage!" Pixie-Bob mentioned, trying to change the topic.
That sounds fun. I thought to myself, noting the little shiver that ran down my back.
I really need to get some warm clothes.
