(Yui Aizawa POV)
My first ever Heroics Class!
"The class that everyone is waiting for!"
I turned to look at the door, and I finally saw him in flesh.
The hero who has saved countless lives with a smile on his face. The Hero who saved over 100 people on his debut!
The Symbol Of Peace, All Might!
"I am walking through this door..... like a completely normal person!" I heard a strong manly voice speak up, and All Might strutted into the class much to the joy of everyone present.
"Damn, it really is true!"
"All Might really is gonna be a teacher here!"
"UA is awesome!"
Amid the friendly chaos and excitement, All Might cleared his throat loudly.
The entire class turned their attention back to the teacher.
"So, as you Younglings know, I'll be teaching you kids at UA this year! I'll be taking the Heroics Class for you all! So everyone, buckle up, put on your hero costumes, and meet me in Ground Alpha pronto!"
With that, there was a mechanical whooshing sound, and several well hidden shelves containing all our hero costumes fizzled out of the wall.
"Woah, we finally get our costumes!" Kirishima shouted. "Can't wait to see mine!"
I strutted over to the shelf with my name written over it, and pulled out the briefcase. I quickly ran over to my desk, and opened up the suitcase.
I gasped.
Inside the suitcase, was exactly what I had ordered before coming to UA. Me and Mom had sat down together one day and gone over a design for my costume.
It was the same thing!
It wasn't anything to grand. Since my quirk required me to use my eyes a lot, I had goggles attached with my skin-tight body suit. It had a flowing black veil which extended from my shoulders all the way back to my knees, just for added aesthetic.
It looked drop-dead gorgeous.
"Damn Yui, your costume's so bold," Kyoka whispered to me from the side. "Surely you don't want that purple-head to see this?"
"It's not too revealing, is it?" I asked with uncertainty.
"It's not revealing at all. It's..... completely skin-tight," Kyoka tried to form her words. "Like, it hugs your body and accentuates your curves and makes your butt look perfect and your boo---"
"Ok ok, I geddit!" I said quickly before Kyoka could delve into my anatomy. "What about yours? I wanna see yours!"
"Mine? It's completely normal," Kyoka said, disgruntled. "Like, absolutely normal."
"But it's cute!" I said with a chirp. "It suits you best!"
"You're so nice," she grumbled. "Look at Yaomomo's costume. It is really revealing, but she needs it for her quirk, from what I've heard."
I looked around the classroom. Everyone was checking out the other's costumes. All of them had such unique designs!
"Hey, Aizawa-san, wanna show us your costume?" a voice spoke up from behind me.
I turned around to see Denki Kaminari, along with the purple head walking alongside him. Or was he walking below him? With his height, I can't even know.
"Aizawa-san, please show us your costume..... please....." the purple head drooled over my table, trying to peek into my suitcase.
"Go away, you peasant," I growled, before latching onto his collar and throwing him halfway across the class.
Yeet!
Mineta crash-landed onto Katsuki Bakugo's desk.
"Nice throw, Yui."
"What the fuck, you Silverhead!" I could hear a Pomeranian scream in the distance.
"She touched me..... she touched me, guys....."
"Shut up, you depraved asshole....."

(Location : Ground Alpha)
"All right! Looks like all you young ones are here!" All Might boomed. "So now, this is your first Heroics Class, so pay attention! I'll be dividing you into pairs, and each pair will be branded as either 'Hero Team' or 'Villain Team'! You'll be fighting in that building over there to regain a bomb!"
After All Might finished explaining the rules to us, he took out a box with all our names on it.
"Now, since there are 21 students in this class, one team will consist of 3 students! Now, before you complain about how it is unfair, think about real life situations! Not all fights in your career will be fair! You will sometimes have the advantage, and you will sometimes be outnumbered! You must be prepared for all situations!"
Everyone in class nodded along with All Might's explanation, and he put his hand into the box to pull out random names deciding the teams.
"And with Young Aizawa-san, your teammate is....."
"Young Todoroki!"
Who?
I turned around to look at a boy with heterochromatic eyes, and a scar across the left side of his face. His hair was also parted into red and white.
He glanced at me for a second, and I nodded.
"Nooo, not fair!" Mineta wailed. "This was my chance.....!"
All Might announced the next pair.
"And Young Mineta is paired with..... Young Yaoyorozu!"
"You know what? I don't mind," Mineta said with a smirk on his face. Yaoyorozu facepalmed a fair distance away.
Todoroki walked over to where I was standing, and stopped next to me.
"Don't drag me down."
I turned to incredulously stare at the boy.
Of course.
I remember now.
He's a Todoroki.
And I remember Dad telling me that Endeavor's name was Enji Todoroki.
So this was Endeavor's son, huh?
He's just as much a prick as Endeavor himself.
"That's my line," I scoffed. "Better we work together, to be honest."
"I don't need your help," he said coldly.
"We'll see about that."
"All right, so let us begin the matches now!" All Might boomed. "First up..... is Team Midoriya and Uraraka vs Team Bakugo and Iida! Team Midoriya will play the Heroes, and Team Bakugo will play the Villains! The rest of you, follow me to the Control Room!"
________________________________________________________________________________
Everyone gawked at the screen.
"S-s-sensei.....!"
"You've gotta stop them, All Might sensei!"
"Bakugo's gonna kill Midoriya!"
I watched the battle unfold in silence. Bakugo had just unleashed a massive explosive attack at point blank range at Midoriya, who had miraculously dodged the attack, and was now lying by the side, panting and breathing heavily.
Almost half of the building's walls had been destroyed.
"I've still got another gauntlet left, Deku.....!" he growled.
"Bakugo! You are not acting in accordance to the mission!" Iida screamed into the microphone. "What the hell?! Bakugo! Respond!"
Just then, the video showed Bakugo removing the earpiece from his ear, and crushing it in his hands.
"You've gotta stop them, All Might," a gruff voice said.
"Dad!"
"All Might, you know that this is going too far," Aizawa-sensei said. "Why aren't you stopping them?"
All Might stayed silent, but he was staring at the screen with determination in his eyes. "I cannot..... I cannot let it end like this.....! I cannot stop them now....."
"AAAAAAARGH!"
Bakugo propelled himself forward with his quirk, and reached out his left arm to burn Midoriya.
"He's going to die!"
Just then, the camera angle shook violently. The Control Room was suddenly shaking as well.
"..... the hell?"
The mini-earthquake immediately subsided, and we strained our eyes to look at the fogged up screen.
There, Midoriya had taken the full brunt of Bakugo's explosion with his left hand, and he had punched towards the ceiling with his right.
The gaping hole had been directly connected to the Room with the bomb, and Uraraka managed to grab hold of the bomb before Iida could do something about it.
"Team Midoriya Wins!"
________________________________________________________________________________
After Midoriya was escorted to the Nurse's Office, the rest of the battles proceeded smoothly. Bakugo was standing at the corner of the Control Room, refusing to lift his head.
"Now, for the Fourth Match.....
It's Team Aizawa and Todoroki, vs Team Ojiro, Hagakure and Sero!"
Wow.
So me and this half-half nitwit have been pitted against the Team that had 3 members on it.
"Team Aizawa will play the Heroes, while Team Hagakure will play the Villains!"
With everything set up, the 5 of us set out on the way to the building.
"Wow, I'm so excited!" Toru Hagakure said. I could only make out her floating gloves right now.
Wait, does that mean she's currently naked? I tried to stifle a laugh at the sudden thought.
"Let's all do our best!" Ojiro and Sero said, and the 3 villains headed inside the building.
Me and Todoroki were left standing outside the building. Neither of us spoke a word. It was an extremely dark silence.
"Alright, Hero Team! The bomb has been planted! You have 10 minutes to recover the missile! Start Now!"
I started to head into the building, but Todoroki simply stopped me from going in.
"What?" I asked, a bit annoyed.
He did not say anything, and slowly walked forward towards the building.
He placed his right hand on the building, and there was a sudden gust of cold wind blowing ahead.
"What the hell.....?"
In front of me, Todoroki encapsulated the entire building in ice. Every single part of the building was now covered in freezing ice.
I stared at the now ice fortress.
"I told you," he turned to me one last time.
"I don't need your help."
I clenched my teeth in frustration. How can someone be so cold and annoying to another right off the bat?
"It's not over yet, you know?" I said sarcastically. "We've gotta get hold of the missile. There's a chance freezing the building achieved nothing except a slippery floor."
Todoroki grimaced at my statement, and let out a huff before entering the building. I followed, but sped up to avoid walking behind him.
"Such a kid," he snorted.
"Shut up, you half-half nitwit," I snarled, and I climbed up the stairs to reach the second floor. "I think we should split up. We need to find the missile first."
"Do whatever you want," he said to me coldly, before turning around and walking away.
I temporarily pushed my annoyed state of mind to the back of my head, and I proceeded to investigate the second floor.
The floor, walls and even the ceiling was completely covered in ice. It was getting a bit hard for me to walk, but I managed to keep my balance nevertheless.
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw something flash by towards my face. I instinctively ducked, and said object made a crashing impact with the wall to my right.
I rolled on the floor, and hastily stood up to look at my assailant.
Mashirao Ojiro.
"No hard feelings, Aizawa-san," he said in an amiable tone. "I must stop you right here."
"Try me," I said boldly.
I quickly whispered into my earpiece. "Hey, nitwit. I found Ojiro on this floor. Come if you want to."
There was no response from the other side, but I could hear slight breathing. Was he ignoring me? I'm gonna completely pummel him later.
"Don't ignore me!" Ojiro said, and he jumped up the walls and floor with his tail, and proceeded to try and punch me in the abdomen. I turned on my heel, and managed to grab his hand just in time, before using his own momentum to throw him across the hallway.
He landed with a crash on the ice, and he immediately dusted himself off and faced me.
"I underestimated you, Aizawa-san. It seems you know a bit of martial arts."
"It's necessary. My quirk does not enhance my physical abilities in the slightest, so I had to learn what I must to defend myself," I replied.
"Well, let's have a fair fight," he said, and he launched himself at me again.
"Unfortunately, this fight is already over."
Mashirao Ojiro immediately collapsed onto the floor before he even had covered any distance, and lay limp on the ground.
I slowly felt my eyes burning up, and I closed them before it got too painful.
"Damn it..... this hurts....."
Mashirao Ojiro's memories were quite normal, so there wasn't any particular bad memory that I could replay for him. So I had to just use the time when he was inside a haunted house as a 7 year old, and continuously replayed all his jumpscare memories from that time.
"That's one down," I said. "I've gotta find the other 2 now....."
But before I could start, curiosity got the better of me. Why did Todoroki even freeze the building in the first place?
I first thought it would be to grant himself extended agility and mobility, but that didn't make much sense, did it? After all, both Ojiro and I were able to move on the ice just fine with some tweaks in our movements.
I carefully analyzed Ojiro's feet.
And that's when it hit me.
Todoroki was trying to freeze them to the floor.
But that didn't work, because on Ojiro's feet, were several rectangular marks and lines.
Those were definitely tape.
Before the match had even started, they'd all taped their hands and feet with Sero's quirk. Once the entire building had been frozen, all they did was take off that tape stuck to the floor, and they were moving just as fine again.
That meant that both Hagakure and Sero were definitely on the move.
Wait, Hagakure?
Shit!
She's invisible!
How am I supposed to fight her? She can just sneak up on me! I can't even use my quirk properly because I won't know where to look at!
Suddenly, there was an announcement on the PA Speakers of the building.
"Congratulations, Team Todoroki and Aizawa! You have successfully captured the weapon!" All Might's voice echoed throughout the corridors.
We won?
Does that mean Todoroki.....?
He defeated the other two, and secured the weapon?
Alone?
I grit my teeth. I'd never been the competitive type before, but when someone insults you on your face, tells you they're better than you, and then actually proves it, it does actually piss you off, doesn't it?
I slowly walked over to Mashirao Ojiro, and shook him awake.
"..... Ojiro-kun? Ojiro-kun?"
The boy-with-the-tail slowly opened his eyes, and squinted to adjust to the sudden light.
"Damn..... you got me good....."
I merely chuckled. "Let's head back, the match is over."
"R-right," he said hesitantly, and his cheeks turned a slight red when I helped him up. "Thanks. What was all that even about? I was suddenly bombarded by Freddy Fazbear from when I was a kid....."
"About that....." I simply scratched my head. "Well, that's my quirk....."
We walked back to the Control Room, while I explained what my quirk exactly did to him. I didn't really delve into the details, since it would be best to keep them to myself as of now.
"Woah..... that's such a cool quirk," Ojiro wondered. "Your quirk is kinda like Aizawa-sensei's, you know that I mean? Like, both of you have ocular quirks....."
We made it back to the Control Room while making idle talk. To be honest, Ojiro is a pretty cool person to talk to. Maybe I should talk to him more often.
"Young Aizawa!" All Might's voice boomed aloud as I entered. "Very impressive indeed!"
"I didn't even do anything," I muttered under my breath, and my eyes scanned the room to look for the half-nitwit.
I found Sero and Hagakure, with their teeth chattering. I pieced together what had happened pretty easily.
When I finally found Todoroki, he was staring at me with an aloof expression.
He then smirked at me.
My blood boiled, but I managed to keep myself under control. I had half a mind to kick him where the sun don't shine, but I restrained myself.
"I don't even know what happened," Ojiro said meekly. "I passed out."
"Well, nothing to worry about!" All Might said. "We've got video recording here!"
All eyes turned to the screen, and the number one hero turned on the feed from all the cameras stationed in the building.
"There!" Ashido squealed, and sure enough, there I was, walking inside the building, and picking up my pace to overtake Todoroki.
From a third person perspective, it looked so stupid.
I internally cringed.
"Did you guys like, fight, or something?" Kaminari asked uncertainly. "You weren't even talking to each other over the microphone, and the one time Aizawa-san did, she just hurled abuses at Todoroki."
"We, umm, had a, misunderstanding," I said slowly. "We decided it would be best to work alone."
"But Young Aizawa and Todoroki, that is not the right approach!" All Might screamed. "You must be willing to cooperate with each other at all times! Even if you have personal issues getting in the way, it should not affect your work as heroes! Please remember that!"
"I'm sorry, sensei," I said. "Will do."
Todoroki, who had been standing quietly in the corner, clicked his tongue in frustration.
"Fine. I'm sorry."
His reply was short and cold, but it was genuine.
"Well, let's continue on with the matches!"
"Psst, Ojiro-kun," the purple bastard spoke up next to him. "You intentionally lost, didn't you? It's ok, I understand. Everyone would want her to pick you up and touch you and----"
Mineta was thrown across the room by me for the second time that day.
