!! Something important for the following chapters: the LOV never attacked the USJ, but some other places. The pros don't know about Kurogiri, Shigi or the nomu specifically, but know they were there at all the attacks. !!
Izuku strolled along the ledge of a cliff that gave him a full view of the training ground, where his students were getting into the training regiments that he had planned out for them, not to mention the beginning of the pink sunrise.
Izuku knew the training would be hard, but he knew the exceptional first year students of UA high could handle it. Besides, Izuku couldn't wait to see all the ways their quirks grew and developed after this camp.
Just thinking about all the possibilities...but no,he had to focus on his student in the here and now.
He gazed to his right, and saw a gray haze of smoke rising into the air, and then suddenly, a ginormous explosion expanded before him, rattling the stone surface he was on.
Izuku smiled to himself. He knew what had caused the explosion.
Izuku hurried over to see how his star pupil was doing.
"Looking good down there Katsuki!" Izuku yelled from his ledge.
"Fuck you Izuku!" Katsuki replied furiously.
"Wow, you realize I'm your teacher right?" Izuku called, eyed widening in feigned shock.
"Exactly! You're the one who designed this torture device!"
"It's training, not torture, plus, it's going to make your quirk exponentially stronger."
"Well your 'training' hurts like hell. I'm not going to be able to use my hands for a week!"
"You were never one to complain before, and remember that promise you made. Plus, we have ice and healing supplies for your hands so you really don't have to worry"
"Fuuuuuuuuuck"
"If you don't stop that, someone's gonna get the wrong idea"
"Wha...."
"Kidding! But seriously, stop cursing so much, I'm still a teacher."
"How the hell is this supposed to maximize my quirk anyways? Won't my sweat glands just go back to normal once they cool down?"
"Not completely, but yes to a certain extent But, they will get used to expanding, and be able to handle bigger more powerful blasts, in moderation of course."
"Whaddaya mean, in moderation? I want all my blasts to be as powerful as possible." Katsuki said in a serious tone.
"Slow you roll, you don't want to kill anyone do you?"
"Well....no" Katsuki said after a moments contemplation.
"Right." Izuku rolled his eyes, "I actually thought of something that could help concentrate your quirk, it's similar to a techique I use all the time."
"Huh?! How the hell does that work? Our quirks are way too different. I make cool explosions and you like, superpower up your body and punch stuff right? Plus Ultra ten-million percent and stuff"
"No! I don't use the maximum amount of my power in my whole body all the time when I fight. If I did, the amount of collateral damage I would cause would be...oh wow."
"Stop bragging and get on with it."
"Right. What I'm saying is that instead of using the limit of my power in my whole body, I focus the brunt of it in the place I'm using to attack, putting the power into a smaller, more concentrated spot, you know?"
"Yeah, I see your point..." Katsuki brought his hand to his face in concentration.
'Cute' Izuku thought involuntarily and blushed.
'In a friend, student, platonic sort of way!' Izuku said to his brain, trying to cover up his slip up. To his own mind.
(Dearest readers, please excuse the weirdness of Izuku's brain ramblings.
It really do just be like that sometimes.)'Sure' Izuku's brain replied sarcastically, deciding to let this one slide.
Katsuki turned away from Izuku, lifted his hand and shot off a blast. It was more concentrated than his usual shots, but still a building collapsing monster.
"Impressive, but not quite. Here, try this." Izuku moved closer to the shorter boy.
He stooped slightly and put one hand on Katsuki's extended arm and lifted the wrist of his unused hand with the other, subsequently wrapping his arms around Katsuki.
"Make a circle with the fingers of your left hand." He commanded. Katsuki did as he was told, oddly silent for once.
Izuku positioned Katsuki's circles left hand on the palm of his right.
"Now, use that circle as a guide as you visualize all your firepower shooting from that one spot."
Katsuki let out a long breath and closed his eyes. His brow furrowed in concentration as the spot on his palm began to glow orange with heat. Suddenly, his eyes shot open and let the built up power blast from his hand, breaking a large boulder cleanly in half.
"Excellent Kat! The power in that blast was way more concentrated than your usual explosions. And on the first try too!" Izuku said stepping away from Katsuki, extremely impressed by the blonde's skills.
When Katsuki didn't respond, Izuku peered at him with concern. He was even more flushed than before, and seemed to be breathing harder than usual. Maybe that shot had taken more out of him than Izuku realized.
"Maybe you should take a break. Your looking a bit warm."Izuku's advised " I have to go check on the other students, but I'll be back later. Keep working on the big blasts and the concentrated ones."
"Sure" Katsuki mumbled and trudged over to the water cooler.
It wasn't until Izuku was halfway to his next destination that he realized, 'did I really have to put my arms around him?!' He smacked a hand onto his face and felt his cheeks burning.
