My Hero Academia: Blood and Fire

Following the clash in the training ground, and Katsuki finally being let in on the secret of One For All, the students finally returned to their schooling for the second semester of their first year, though the sisters did find something interesting while they got ready in the dorms, Izuku approached Katsuki with questions about his Shoot Style. Despite his annoyance that Izuku had been given All Might's Quirk, and everything else he had learned that night, he was actually willing to point out a few of the flaws in Izuku's style, thus giving him more to work on. This did come as a surprise to the rest of the class, since the explosive boy had shown nothing but hatred for Izuku since the day they started attending UA, but they were happy to see that maybe, just maybe, the pair had buried the hatchet and were moving on with their lives. Selene and Celestia knew it wouldn't be that simple, not with Katsuki's intense personality, but at the very least he saw their brother as someone he could push towards greater heights and then propel himself even higher.

The first action in the new semester was to gather together with the rest of the students, from across the classes, and have their opening ceremony, where the Principle would speak for a time, the students would listen, and then they would go about their business, though they had missed the ceremony for the first semester thanks to Aizawa's surprise test.

"Hello everyone, it's me, everyone's favorite mammalian Principle!" Nezu stated, his expression the same as always, he just looked like he was having fun while holding the serious side of himself back, saving that for his staff members, though most of the students just stood there to let him get through his opening message.

His opening statement, as the sisters discovered, was purely about Nezu's fur quality, the diet he lived by, his lifestyle, and a few of his habits, almost like he was talking about the weather or something while slowly putting most of the students to sleep, but they suspected that there was a point to his words.

"My point, dear students, is that my 'routine' and 'lifestyle' were thrown off recently thanks to THAT event," Nezu continued, a fact that caused them all to snap back to reality, as he was talking about the loss of All Might, in fact the sisters could see that Toshinori was shamed by the fact that so many were facing such challenges thanks to his retirement, even though he had accepted this part of his reality, "the effects of that incident have become to appear more frequently and far sooner than we had been hoping, so from here on out we can expect greater difficulties in the future. For those of you in the heroics courses, this will be the most prominent, especially for those of you in your second and third years, who are involved with your hero internships... you must be increasingly aware of the ongoing crisis."

This caused the students who didn't know what he was talking about to whisper to each other, while Nezu continued to tell them that he and the rest of the staff members were working on a solution for them, and that it was his hope that they could all grow into successors for those that were out in the field right now. Following that he walked off the stage and seemed pleased with his 'short' speech, even though Vlad definitely didn't have the heart to tell him that it had been quite long, and Hound Dog, the Head of Student Discipline, took his place on stage. He apparently wanted to say something, but he quickly broke down into a series of barks and snarls, mixed in with growls and other dog noises, as he was angry about something and that caused him to lose the ability to speak normally, which was odd since none of the other people like him had that sort of downside. Vlad apparently knew what Hound Dog wanted to say and told them that the figure knew that they weren't used to dorm life and that they were to refrain from breaking the rules, but other than that there wasn't much else for them to talk about and so the students were dismissed.

As such they headed to their classroom and Aizawa got down to business, informing them that they would be returning to their lives as students and that they wouldn't have any activities for some time, which the sisters found to be fair, and yet, despite his plan, Tsuyu asked about the hero internships.

According to Aizawa this would be like their workplace experience, but this would be the real deal, they would be working with heroes and actually have a realistic impact on the places they ended up working in, especially since those with a license would be able to act on their instincts without direct orders. This freaked Ochaco out since she openly wondered why they worked so hard during the Sports Festival, but their teacher continued by telling them that this would use their connections from the Festival, that this was actually optional, and that those who hadn't been scouted would find this harder than the rest of the class. The sisters found that this was interesting, that it wasn't connected to their studies at all, meaning there was no reason for Selene or Celestia to even care about the hero internships, but since freshmen usually didn't obtain their hero licenses he wasn't expecting them to be involved, despite the staff considering allowing them to participate. This told the sisters that Aizawa had been expecting most of them to fail the exam, especially since their opponents had been those in their second or third year of study, even though he knew the sisters would succeed, they were monsters and he felt that there was no stopping either of them.

Other than that there wasn't much else for them to worry about, other than the fact that Izuku took out the trash one night and encountered someone who chattered with him for a couple of seconds, though on the subject of internships Aizawa did have someone come by to speak with them on a following day. The figures in question were what the staff members of UA called the 'Big Three', the strongest and most talented students in the school, or at least those nearing graduation, where one was a gloomy boy that was a few years older than them, but seemed to be distracted somewhat. The middle person was a girl that Celestia knew, from Ryukyu's agency, Nejire, who seemed to be her usually happy self even though she knew that she could switch into her serious state in a matter of seconds. The one at the front of the line was a boy that had what had to be the simplest face, smooth like from a cartoon, yet he seemed to be incredibly happy and was excited to meet them, and the way Izuku reacted to his presence meant that he was the one he had conversed with previously.

"As I said, they're taking time out of their busy schedules to speak with you, so be respectful and listen to what they have to tell you." Aizawa continued, knowing that some of them might have problems paying attention to what was going on, but a good number of them were definitely paying attention, such as the sisters, causing him to turn towards the trio, "We'll start with you, Tamaki."

Apparently the dark haired boy that was the third in line intensified his gaze as he stared at the class, though while most of the class was shocked and taken aback by his decision he found that Selene and Celestia held his gaze and didn't even flinch, but his shyness caused him to turn and place his head against the wall. He was Tamaki Amajiki, who was shy and seemed to have no self esteem, which was actually quite bad for a hero, while Nejire introduced herself as Nejire Hado, who appeared to pick on her friend a little before smiling at the class, asking questions while barely waiting for an answer to each. The last one was Mirio Togata, though while he seemed to be a bit odd he did have a serious side, revealing that he knew that they didn't have any idea what Aizawa had been talking about and that he suspected that they were confused by their seniors were explaining this. The strangest thing about Mirio was his approach to all of this, for them to experience his experiences in a fight, everyone in Class 1-A versus him, something that caused Aizawa to sigh as he allowed it to happen, causing them to leave the room once more.

A few moments later every student was in their training gear and were in the Gamma Gym, where Nejire noticed that both Selene and Celestia carried their weapons at all time, causing Aizawa to tell her that there was no use trying to take them, as they seemed to be part of the Quirks that the sisters had.

"Now then, you are free to come at me whenever you want, from wherever you want, and in whatever order you desire." Mirio said, showing no concern for the fact that this class had fought against villains before, even more than normal groups of freshmen, nor did he care about them being able to acquire their licenses, with a few exceptions, despite Aizawa thinking that most of them would have failed, he just didn't seem to care about all of them, only their enthusiasm.

"Very well, I shall go first." Izuku replied, though at the same time he shifted his stance as he slipped into his Full Cowl, it was second nature for him at this point, but the reason he was doing this was due to the fact that he wanted to see how much of a gap existed between him and the supposed greatest students in UA, while everyone else, save for Shoto and his sisters, got ready for battle by dividing themselves into their own groups.

As it turned out when the battle started Mirio seemed to slip out of his clothing, or his clothing slipped off his body, but as he apologized for this, claiming that the fine tuning still wasn't perfect, Izuku went on the offensive and aimed right at his head, because if he could knock their foe to the ground it would be good for everyone. Selene and Celestia watched as Izuku just slipped through Mirio's body, like he was phasing through him, and he landed on the ground behind their opponent, who was a little surprised that the boy had aimed at his head, despite the long ranged attacking his head and chest. Such a thing caused Izuku to dodge out of the way, so he didn't get hit by the rest of the class, but Mirio took the opportunity to slip right through the ground and attacked the long ranged students before they even had a chance to react, ending with them on the ground and him standing there, posing while saying 'POWER'. Izuku, already coming up with an idea on how to counter this Quirk, was the next one to go down since Mirio knew the strategists were a danger as well, before he dominated the rest of the class that was attacking him, something that Aizawa wasn't even surprised by.

Izuku and the others picked themselves up a few moments later and moved themselves to the side of the stage, where they found that his sisters stepped up, something that caused Mirio to glance at Selene and Celestia, no doubt because he had heard of them and was no doubt interested in their Quirks.

"So, are you two going to face me as well?" Mirio asked, though at the same time Izuku could see that the other two turned to face the battle, as even the rest of the Big Three were interested in this, and yet he was sure that there might be a couple of teachers watching from somewhere else, "If so, don't be surprised if I humble you both."

Selene and Celestia glanced at each other for a couple of seconds before they shifted into their hybrid forms as they stopped in the arena that everyone had been fighting in, allowing Mirio a chance to see that they were being serious, especially since both of them held their weapons at the ready. Aizawa watched them for a moment as the sisters went on the offensive, he wasn't even surprised by that fact, and found that when Selene and Celestia attacked their fists and feet slipped through their foe's body, at least when they used Tiger and Dragon. The shocking part came when they used their weapons, where he found Mirio started to dodge one of Celestia's attacks and found that Solarion cut the edge of Mirio's arm as he moved out of the way, much to his surprise, the surprise of the other members of the Big Three, and the students of UA. Only her sister wasn't surprised in the slightest, as Selene moved in with Nightfell and stuck Mirio in the back, using the handle and not the blade, where she slammed him down into the ground before leaping over to where Celestia was standing.

"What? But... how?!" Katsuki asked, because both he and Izuku had been studying Mirio to see if they could come up with a new plan, just in the off chance that he came at the group again to make sure they knew about the gap in their abilities, but this was insane, both Selene and Celestia had been able to make contact with him and even draw blood.

"From what I've been able to tell our weapons are made out of adamantine, one of the strongest metals in the world, and they seem to have some powers or enchantments of their own." Celestia replied, where Selene said nothing, she was silently listening to her sister as she wondered how much she actually knew about the weapon in her hand, and yet Selene felt that Solarion was mentally communicating all of this to it's owner, to remind her about it, "Looks like you can't phase through our weapons."

Mirio stared at them for a moment, knowing that he could stop the bleeding when he slipped through the world, though as he thought about that Selene rushed him, attacking with the speed of her Tiger Quirk, which was rather insane now that he was facing it up close and personal, while at the same time forcing himself to avoid her weapon. Now that he knew that there was a substance he couldn't move through, which was both interesting and disturbing given the nature of his Quirk, he also knew that he couldn't afford to be hit by it again, not after being struck by Solarion. As Mirio considered that Celestia switched out of her hybrid form and approached him without delay, like she was being arrogant after hurting him, though as he rushed to deal with her first, however, he found that his fist came close to her and a flaming aura appeared around her, a fact that caused him to move away. It was Sunshine, the most dangerous Quirk of them all, because he knew that he could potentially slip through the flames to attack Celestia's stomach or face, his usual targets, but there was a chance doing so would also burn him in the process, causing him to chuckle, he doubted even he could beat her.

As the pair came at him again Mirio decided to surrender, there was no way he was going to risk his health against both of the sisters, their Quirks, and their weapons, where Aizawa found himself wondering what the future held for the sisters as Celestia mended Mirio's cut arm like it was nothing, making him wonder what headaches the class would throw his way in the coming days.
