"U.A. Heroes Battle"
[IZUKU] This world is a superhuman society, with about eighty percent of the population possessing some uncanny ability called a "Quirk." Heroes fight against villains who abuse their powers for evil. It's no surprise the heroes became our champions. My name is Izuku Midoriya, and I've always dreamed of being a hero. So I enrolled in the prestigious UA High School. My friends and I are working hard toward a shared goal, facing every challenge that comes our way, and saving people with a smile. We're training to become the world's greatest heroes. That's right, this is My Hero Academia .
"Who are you talking to Midoriya-kun?" Hitoshi Shinso asks as he turns towards the green haired teenager that everyone in their class nicknamed 'Broccoli boy' due to the color of his hair. It was a running joke among the student of Class A much like the joke of calling Bakugou an 'Angry Pomeranian'.
"I don't know? I honestly don't remember saying half of this crap if we're being honest here Shinso-kun." Midoriya answers truthfully.
"Watch it there Midoriya, you're beginning to sound a lot like Bakugou." Present Mic jokingly tells the green haired hero student who just chuckles and shrugs his shoulders in response.
"I'm not surprised that Midoriya has picked up some of Bakugou's less desirable tendencies. They did grow up together after all." Hitoshi says with a chuckle. It was funny how the two grew up together yet still managed to argue like the so called 'frenemies' they are.
"Hey!!! Just because Kacchan and I grew up in the same neighborhood, doesn't mean that I act anything like 'Katsuki Bakugou'!!" Midoriya says in a defensive manner. He wasn't nearly as competitive or aggressive as the ash haired blonde was.
"Yeah you're right, I'm sorry for accusing you of acting like an Angry Pomeranian. I should've said that you're beginning to become as dense as your boyfriend 'Todoroki Shoto'." Shinso says with a chuckle and an eye roll.
"Hey I have a question. Is there a reason why you call one another by you're last names?" Prince Adam asks. He wasn't from Earth so he didn't know whether or not this was a normal thing for humans on earth.
"In Japan, it's customary and tradition to address one another by their 'family name'. Addressing someone by their 'family name' is a way of showing respect towards their family and it is normal for Japanese people to use 'honorifics' such as 'san or kun' in addition to their family name. And usage of first names is typically only reserved for people who have known one another for a very long time or have a special bond with one another." Peter explains before getting a strange look from Tony Stark.
"What? I watch a lot of anime, so I have picked up on a bunch of different 'traditions' that are typically seen in Japan or other surrounding areas." Peter says while throwing his hands up in the air. It wasn't his fault that he loved binge watcor thing animes such as 'Demon Slayer, Spy x Family, Naruto, and My Hero Academia'.
In fact now that Peter thought about it he actually some what recognized Midoriya, Shinso, and the two Pro Heroes. It took him a while, since he hadn't seen the anime in a while and has yet to catch up on the 'BNHA' manga series.
"I won't judge you. I love anime too!! But one anime/manga series that I refuse to touch is 'One Piece'." Shinso says.
"Oh my god, I thought I was the only one who refused to watch that show or read the manga. I mean the manga itself has over one thousand chapters and the TV show has over twenty seasons!!!" Midoriya says.
"Oh I guess we found a similarity between our universes, because I also refuse to touch One Piece." Barry says.
"Barry, you're literally a speedster you could probably watch the entire show in one week." Oliver says with an eye roll. He never understood the hype surrounding Japanese Anime cartoons or manga series.
"Each episode is over twenty minutes Ollie!!! I might be a speedster but I can't sit through over twenty seasons of straight filler episodes." Barry complains.
"I'm actually with Barry on this one. The anime One Piece has over twenty seasons and I searched up the end date on google and apparently the show and manga aren't projected to end until some time in 2026." Kara says
"Um for those of us who don't know what your talking about. Can you please explain what 'Anime' is?" King Roland asks. The royal family of Enchancia were from a time before the use of technology so he had no idea what they were talking about.
"Oh, the term 'anime' refers to any type of Japanese cartoon. Such as the ORIGINIAL Pokemon series and Digimon, which many people seem to forget originated in Japan." Peter says.
[Izuku Midoriya] When our second term ended, it was time for Winter break. None of us went home, so my classmates and I spent most of our time hanging around the dorms. Of course we weren't there by choice.
"What do you mean by 'you and your classmates didn't stay at your dorms by choice?' Is there a reason why none of you decided to go home and visit your families?" Barry asked, he knew that if it were him he would be absolutely bored out of his mind.
"The UA Staff collectively decided that it was in our best interest to stay on campus. We all live in Class 1-A's section of the Height's Alliance dormitories located on U.A.'s campus, we moved into our dorms shortly after All Might went into permanent retirement. The reason why we couldn't leave was because the League of Villains were and still are targeting us." Deku explains.
"Honestly, at this point it's more like Tomura Shigaraki and the rest of the League of Villains are targeting you specifically Midoriya." Shinso says in a joking manner.
"Hey it's not my fault Shigaraki hates me. According to that villain Muscular, Shigaraki placed my name towards the very top of his 'prioroty kill list'. SOmething about me always foiling his plans or something like that." Midoriya says casually like it's the most normal thing in the world to be targeted by one of the most dangerous villain organizations in the country.
"This is the reason why I call you a problem child. You're always diving head first into danger despite the fact that you're not even a full fledged Pro Hero. You only have your provisional hero license. You shouldn't be fighting villains like Muscular or Shigaraki, yet you still disobey orders and wind up back in Recovery Girl's office no matter what I tell you." Eraserhead tells the student who just responds with a sheepish smile.
"I'm surprised Recovery Girl hasn't reserved a bed in her office for you at this point. You end up injured in her office at least two to three times a month, she should have plaque installed that says 'This bed is reserved for Izuku Midoriya'." Shinso says with a laugh.
"Hey, Kacchan is a frequent flyer in Recovery Girl's office too."
"Who is Recovery Girl?" Sofia asks in confusion. She assumed that she was U.A.'s nurse but she didn't know whether or not this person was a 'Pro Hero' like the two older men sitting with the two U.A. students.
"Oh Recovery Girl is an older Pro Hero. She works as a nurse at our school. Her quirk is called 'Heal' which allows her to amplify and speed up the human body's natural healing process by planting a kiss on the injured person." Deku says excitedly.
"Hm. Interesting, due to my enhanced speed which comes with my speedster and Meta Human DNA. I have an enhanced healing factor, which means that my body healing much quicker than a normal person." Barry says
"The only thing that can remotely harm me is Kryptonite. And thanks to my enhanced metabolism that comes from my exposure to Earth's solar radiation I also have an enhanced healing factor. I also have enhanced speed myself." Kara says.
"You know Kara, I don't think the two of us have raced one another since that day I helped you defeat those Meta Humans 'Live Wire and Silver Banshee', we should totally have another race some time to see who's faster." Barry tells his friend.
"Challenge accepted. Think you can keep up 'Scarlet Speedster'?" Kara jokingly questions the man next to her with a laugh.
"Just you watch 'Girl of Steel'." Barry says before breaking out into laughter himself.
[Mineta] Groans. Ugh!!! We finally get a break from our class assignments, and they decide we're not allowed to go anywhere.
[Kaminari] I'm so frickin bored, I think I'm gonna die.
[Sero] You can play more card games?
[Kaminari and Mineta] Fight Me!!!
"Who are those boys?" Evie asks.
"The boy sitting on the couch with the blue hair is our class representative 'Tenya Iida'. The purple haired boy is our classmate 'Minoru Mineta'. And the boy with the blonde hair who has a streak of black, is Shinsou's BOYFRIEND 'Denki Kaminari'." Deku says smugly as he looks over to Shinso whose face is currently turning red.
"NO LOUD BLONDES!!" Eraserhead tells his adopted son who turns to face him and sticks his tongue out. The audacity of children these days!!
"Says the man who is married to the loudest blonde known to man. Did you forget about your blonde husband 'The great voice hero: Present Mic'?" Shinso asks with a grin. He could argue with Aizawa all day long, perhaps thats the reason why Eraserhead called him a pain in the ass.
Shota rolls his eyes at it adopted son. There were moments when Hitoshi Shinso acted too much like Aizawa. And this was one of those moments, once upon a time Eraserhead knew that he would've responded the same exact way with the same level of sass and attitude as his child was giving him right now. He was both proud and extremely annoyed.
[Mineta] Isn't there anything fun to do crisis?!
[Kaminari] If I don't check out the real world soon, I'll go insane!!!
[Tenya] Calm down. I'm sure you two haven't forgetten why it's in our best interest to stay in the dorms over winter break?
[Momo] The League of Villains is targeting us. We can't afford to act recklessly. Our teachers are using every possible line of defense in U.A.'s arsenal to ensure our safety.
"And this is why everyone calls Iida and Yaomomo the 'parents' of Class 1-A." Deku says while gesturing with his hands to the screen.
"Yaomomo?" Apple White questions.
"The girl with the black hair is our student and their fellow classmate 'Momo Yaoyorozu'. Her quirk is called 'Creation'. Anyways her and Iida are the Class 1-A's president and vice president and they also try their best to keep the students in check when the teachers aren't around." Hizashi responds with a chuckle. Tenya and Tensei might be brothers, but Tenya was definitely more strict and much more of a rule follower than his older brother 'Ingenium'.
Hizashi remembers countless moments back in high school when Tensei had challenged him and Shota. Like that one time they raced each other in shopping carts down a nearby hill, before getting scolded by the store owners.
[Mineta] Still pretty lame right?
[Kaminari] Tell me about it. I can't believe the only day they're letting us go back home is New Year's Eve.
[Tenya] Don't you realize what that means?
[Momo] It's not as though they'll wave goodbye and turn us loose.
[Tenya] All the teacher's will be charged with escorting each and every one of us to our doorsteps.
[Momo] And if they're aren't enough teachers available, they'll have to enlist Pro Heroes to accompany us.
"Aren't you guys Pro Heroes?" James asks while looking at Eraserhead and Present Mic in confusion.
"We are Pro Heroes, but I'm pretty sure Yaoyoruzu was referring to the Pro Heroes who aren't apart of U.A's teaching staff, since all of the U.A. Staff lives on campus with the students. Which means we were also in around the same boat as my problem children." Eraserhead says.
"Awww. Midoriya did you hear that? He called us HIS problem children." Shinso says in a teasing manner.
"Hitoshi, you're literally my son. So I don't know why you're acting as though I have never called you my child before." Eraserhead says not getting the joke behind Hitoshi's teasing manner.
"Sho, I think Hitoshi is talking about the way you openly called him and Midoriya your problem children." Hizashi tries to explain to his husband.
"I knew you loved us Dadzawa!!!" Deku says with a grin.
"Shut up Problem Child!! Or else I will not hesitate to ground you both and put the two of you on house arrest!!!" Eraserhead says while trying to hide his face in his capture scarf.
"Ha. Jokes on you. You've already placed me on house arrest before remember a couple of months ago? It was two or three weeks after we moved into the dorms, Kacchan and I decided to fight in the middle of the night on school campus so you placed both of us on House arrest at the dorms. And made us clean the entire dormitory. Never again do ai want to clean the dorm bathrooms or the Common Area." Deku complains.
"Yeah, well we've had to clean out entire school top to bottom twice!!!" Stella says with an eye roll.
"Twice?" Aisha questions. She wasn't present the first time they had to clean the school with out their powers.
"Oh right, I totally forgot that Layla wasn't with us during our first year at Alfea. Bloom, do you remember how Faragonda and Griselda scolded and punished us after we snuck into Cloud Tower to get my ring back?" Stella asks her best friend.
"Yeah I do actually. Layla you had it easy, the first time they made us clean the school after Head Mistress Griffin told them we 'trespassed' in her school. Faragonda decided to make us clean the school without our powers. She even took away our magic. Then we somehow ended up partying with the boys at Red Fountain and the Trix showed up. i'm assuming they wanted to steal my powers from Faragonda's office. I remember how Faragonda caught us all sneaking around in her office afterwards too." Bloom says with a laugh.
"Yeah, at least Faragonda let us use our magic and 'convergence' to clean the school the second time. When we got caught after sneaking off campus to enjoy some peace and quiet away from our studies." Stella says.
"I'm pretty sure the use of convergence magic was our punishment. I remember how tired all of us were afterwards." Layla says with a groan.
[Tenya] They're busy enough at this hectic time of year!! Do you really want to disregard their work?!
[Momo] Both of you should be counting your blessings!!!
[Tenya] Be grateful they let us leave at all!!
[Mineta] Our teachers are the best!! Thank you!!
[Kaminari] Heroes, we love you guys.
[Kaminari and Mineta] WE'RE NOT WORTHY OF YOUR SACRIFICE!!!
Mal snorts at the scene in front of them.
"Damn those two kids really do act like your 'mom' and 'dad'." Tony says with a chuckle.
"Tell me about it!!" Midoriya groans. He couldn't possibly tell you the amount of times that Iida has scolded him this month alone. There was a reason why they had chosen him to be there class rep. Don't get Midoriya wrong, Iida was his friend and all. But there were times when he acted TOO MUCH like a rule follower. With the exception of that time he went all crazy and tried to kill Stain by himself.
"And I thought my friend Caitlin was bad about scolding me." Barry jokes which earns a chuckle from Kara next to him.
"You know Barry. Caitlin wouldn't scold you so much, if you stopped making stupid decisions right?" Oliver asks the speedster.
"Hey!!! I don't make dumb decisions!!!" Barry tries to defend himself even though he knew it was pointless.
"Are you sure about that? Were you not the person who decided to travel back in time to save his mother from being murdered? Only to live in an 'alternate' timeline for months and then when you tried to fix everything. You created a 'fixed' timeline where certain people's lives were altered like Dig for example." Oliver says.
"Hey!!! You didn't have to bring up flashpoint!!! Also it's not like that was the first time I've ever time traveled. I can't tell you how many times I've gone back in time now, to ask THAWNE of all people for help." Barry says.
"You're just proving my point right now Barry." Oliver says with a sigh.
"Didn't you say that your team banned you from traveling back in time?" Kara asks her friend her voice laced with laughter.
"Like that has ever stopped me before. I'm sure Caitlin has told you how Cisco and I used to do things behind her back even after she told us not to do so." Barry says with a grin on his face.
Kara nods, "Yeah. Caitlin and Felicity have shared countless stories about how you and Oliver have gone behind their backs only for you to get injured."
[I decided to play the Season 5 My Hero Academia opening 'Merry-Go-Round' instead of the Season 6 intro that released during the arc when Midoriya left U.A. to become a 'vigilante' because I feel as though that opening is a bit too gloomy for the context of this specific OVA. Merry-Go-Round is also one of my favorite intros besides Odd Future, Make My Story, Polaris, and No. 1 (Season 5 opening #1). My top three ending songs from the My Hero Academia anime have to be Shout Baby, Update, and Believe.]
WOWOW it's all right
Everything will be all right
WOWOW it's all right
Everybody now we're here
"What is this? Why is there a random song playing in the middle of the video?" Hordak asks in annoyance. He just wanted to get this over with as quickly as possible.
"It's the anime opening!!!" Chat Noir says as if it was common knowledge.
"I love anime openings!!! They always go hard!!!" Deku says with a grin. Wondering if their so called 'anime' opening were half as good as the ones he has seen from other fandoms.
"What's the name of this opening?" Tony asks.
"This is the opening from the 'Work-Study' arc of Season 5. It's called 'Merry-Go-Round'." Starlight explains with a grin on her face.
"I really need to catch up on the My Hero Academia manga when I get home." Peter thinks to himself as he prepares to start jamming out to one of his personal favorite opening songs from this anime.
My Hero Academia
Oh hey brother, listen
Yeah, fate can be hardhearted
Saigen mo nai yume wo mite
Dare yori mo kizutsuita
"Oh hey Midoriya. Look it's you, Todoroki, and Bakugou!!!" Shinso says.
"I guess it makes sense that the three of us would be together. This must be from our second round of work-studies where we work studied with Shoto's father the new No.1 hero 'Endeavor'. After All Might retired, Endeavor rose up the Hero Charts and became the new No.1 hero in Japan. And since that incident with the Shie Hassaikai and Sir Nighteye happened during the first round of work studies, I couldn't exactly go back to Nighteye's agency. So I decided to go with Shoto and Kacchan to Endeavor's agency since Todoroki-kun didn't feel like going alone." Deku says
"What are work studies?" Adora asks the teenager.
"The 'Work Study' program is something that is offered by hero schools including U.A. High School. It pretty much gives hero course students such as Midoriya and Todoroki who is the boy with the red and white hair. The opportunity to do real hero work with Professional Heroes outside of the Pro's who teach at UA. My student Tokoyami work studied with the No.2 Hero Hawks." Eraserhead explains tiredly.
"I'm pretty sure Tokoyami also interned with Hawks during our internships. I was with Gran Torino." Deku says with a chuckle. He remembers how bizarre it was when he first arrived at Gran Torino's apartment.
Kankei ga nai koto to itte
Nigedashi takami no kenbutsu
I couldn't be a shell
Sonna fuu ni wa dekinai
Holding my strength and weakness
Saa koko kara mata hajimeru
I'm standing by myself
Face the world to grieve no more
"Oh look the League of Villains made an appearance." Shinso says with an eye roll.
"I'm not surprised. We already have to deal with them 24/7. So of course they're gonna show up in this opening song." Deku says
"Who exactly are the League of Villains? I know you've mentioned them quite a few times already." Nathalie asks.
"The League of Villains is a group of villains which was created by a guy named 'All For One'. They consist of 'Tomura Shigaraki, Himiko Toga, Dabi, Twice, Spinner, Mr.Compress, and a bunch of other villains like Muscular who I don't care about since they usually don't attack us on a daily basis like the villains I listed earlier do."
"I find it funny that Toga is absolutely obsessed with you and Uraraka. Didn't she kidnap you and a few people from Class 1-A and Midnight once?" Shinso asks jokingly.
"Yeah. She knocked me out and tried to get me to marry her. I couldn't say a word because they duck taped my mouth shut. And Shigaraki of all people was the 'officiant'. I'm pretty sure he only agreed to do it because he wanted to see me suffer." Deku says with a groan.
(I definitely didn't get this from a meme I saw on youtube that had this scenerio by a Gacha tuber who used the Jessie audio from that one creepy Connie episode.)
The carousel goes up and goes down
The carousel runs around so fast
Your existence sparking more than
No one, no one, no one else
"Hey. The rest of Class 1-A made an appearance as well!!!" Hizashi says with a grin.
"Well I would hope so. After all they are our students. Even though some of them might not get in as much trouble as a certain green haired kid. They are still Class A hero course students." Aizawa responds before looking at Midoriya pointedly.
"Shiggy really needs to get some better skin care. I mean look at his crusty face." Deku says.
"I feel like he might disintegrate his skin care if he touched it though?" Shinso says
"I guess you have a point. His quirk is called 'Decay' after all. He can destroy whatever he touches." Deku says
"Oh his 'quirk' is kind of like my Cata-" Chat Noir starts before Ladybug cuts him off knowing exactly where this was going.
"Don't say it Kitty!!! You know if you say Cataclsym you're going to activate your powers. Just like my 'Charm'." Ladybug scolds her partner.
"Right. Sorry Bugaboo!!"
Ladybug rolls her eyes at her partners antics.
Merry-Go-Round Revolving around
Zutto senaka wo mite
Itsudatte akogarete demo chikazukenai
Ushinatte aragatte
Itsu no hi ka anata no you ni waraitai
And now it's our round
"What's that black energy thing that came out of you? Is it your quirk Midoriya?" Mal asks the teenager.
"It's one of my quirks. I have multiple. That quirk in particular is called 'Black whip' it allows me to release tendrils of 'dark energy' to capture objects and project myself forward." Deku quickly corrects the VK.
"Cool. You're quirk 'Black Whip' is kind of like the spider webs that I can shoot out of my web shooters. Do you have a quirk that lets you sense danger like my 'Spidey sense'? Because that would be even cooler." Peter says with a grin.
"Yeah. Supposedly it's called 'Danger Sense' and it allows me to sense nearby danger." Deku says
"Awesome. Your powers are just like mine!!! I got spider like abilities after I was bitten by this Radio active spider. And I have been a superhero/vigilante ever since." Peter says excitedly.
"And I've had to deal with you ever since you became an official avenger." Tony says
"Hey. Technically I'm your 'intern'. Nobody except for you, Pepper, Aunt May, Ned, MJ, and the rest of the Avengers (including Dr.Strange) knows that I'm Spider-Man." Peter tells his mentor.
"What about F.R.I.D.A.Y and Karen? They know your secret identity too." Tony says.
"They don't count. Karen and Friday are our personal AI's that you built into both of our suits and into the Avengers Compound." Peter says
"I miss Jarvis. Friday is way too smug." Tony complains about his own AI.
"Jarvis is now 'powering' Vision. Also you created Friday so technically Friday's attitude came from you." Peter says
"I hate it when you're right Pete." Tony grumbles while his 'Intern' just grins from ear to ear.
U.A. Heroes Battle
[Kirishima] Ugh. It's bad enough that we're stuck on campus and barely get any time to spend at home. But the big night getting cancelled makes it suck worse.
[Mina] Yeah. I'm bummed.
[Aoyama] And I was so looking forward to the soiree. Ah.
[Sato] Me too!!
[Shoto] Hold on what event?
"Yuuei's totally awesome New Year's party obviously!!! I DJ for the event every year. I was also upset when Nezu decided to cancel it." Hizashi says with a pout on his face.
"You also always drag me to the New Year's party every year, just like drag me to Nemuri's party every year. I swear that lady spikes her punch with so much alcohol, that it's not even funny." Shota says with an eye roll.
"You act like you don't chug that sh- stuff down like it's nothing."
"I wish I could get drunk. But after I got my super speed my metabolism drastically increased so my body burns through alcohol faster that it can keep it in. My drinking career came to an end before it could even begin. My friends Cisco and Caitlin tried to make an alcoholic drink for me, but my body burned through it so fast I could only stay 'drunk' for a few minutes." Barry complains with a groan
"Let me hook you up with some alien alcohol, I also have a fast metabolism so normal 'human' alcohol doesn't work on me. I'm sure I can get you some alcohol from an alien bar on my earth." Kara says
"Pete also has a fast metabolism due to his enhanced Spider DNA. I'm assuming you have to eat a bunch of calories to keep up with your bodies metabolism while you're running right?" Tony asks the Speedster.
"Yeah, you figured that out pretty quickly. How did you know?" Barry asks
"I already told you I'm a certified genius. Also I as mentioned Peter also has an quick metabolism so I have to deal with feeding him every single day. I swear this kid eats more food in one day than I do in an entire week." Tony says.
"I have to consume around 10,000 calories a day so that I don't pass out. But thanks to my super fast speed I can run all of those calories off in less than thirty minutes." Barry explains.
"Remember when we met for the first time? I took you to one of the best donut shops in National City. And then we got ice cream for the second time that day." Kara says.
"I love donuts!!!" Peter says
"Who doesn't like donuts???" Barry and Kara ask at the same time before turning to one another and laughing.
[Ochako] Geez did it get even colder?
[Hagakure] Well I'm basically a walking popsicle.
[Ochako] Oh hey whatcha talkin about?
[Kirishima] I bet you can guess.
[Mina] U.A.'s famously awesome New Year's party!!!
[Shoto] Oh yeah, you mean the elaborate production they put on at the shrine each year?
"Yup!!! U.A's New Year's party is one of the things that I look forward to attending every year. I love being UA's DJ because I get to pick the music and the playlists that they play at every event. I'm also the host for half of our events." Present Mic says with a grin.
"Midoriya who do you think would be the better DJ. My dad or Jirou? They both have similar styles and have similar taste in music." Shinso asks.
"That's a good question. I don't know, we should totally have them go up against one another in a DJ battle at some point."
"What do you mean you don't know little listener? I'm obviously the better DJ, after all my radio show 'Put Your Hands Up Radio' is one of the most famous radio shows in all of Japan and I'll have you know that I'm also well known in America too." Present Mic says with a gasp.
Deku and Hitoshi just look at one another and grin. "I guess you'll just have to prove yourself then. When we get back let's have a battle 'Earphone Jack vs Present Mic' to see who the better DJ is."
"You're on kid!!" Present Mic agrees with a grin.
"Oh god. Hizashi you better not break the windows at the dorms again!!"
"Hey it's not my fault there were a bunch of insects everywhere. You know I much I hate insects Sho!!! No offense kid!!" Hizashi tells the Spiderling.
[Tokoyami] The feasts are legendary.
[Kirishima] I've been before and it's better than you could ever imagine. [Mina] Awww. I've only ever seen it on TV. [Sero] Awww. I want to go!!!
[Ojirio] Same here. I know how about you tell us more about since you've been a guest.
[Kirishima] Go on Midoriya, tell them. [Deku] Oh um sure. The UA New Year's party is awesome. The school's sponsored it for years I think. And it takes place at the Kurega Shrine from January 1st to January 3rd.
"Your New Year's parties last for three whole days?!" Barry asks in amazement.
"Yeah, it's three days full of nothing but games and entertainment. And of course we have plenty of food available." Present Mic says in his 'hosting' voice.
"Wow you really have that whole 'radio show host' thing down." Barry compliments. He has been a Forensic Scientist and a CSI for the CCPD for years but that was just impressive to him.
"Thank you. Every successful Pro Hero needs to have their own 'flare' or 'persona' that sets them apart from the rest of the crowd. I'm the 'DJ Hero: Present Mic' so it's kinda my thing to talk like a Radio show host. That's actually the reason why my station offered to give me my own radio show on the weekends. And since then I've only gained popularity among the people of Japan."
"What's your 'thing'?" Barry asks Eraserhead. Who didn't seem like the type of person who liked to do anything over the top like his blonde husband.
"I'm the 'Underground Hero: Eraserhead'. I don't like being in the spotlight. Most of my patrols are during the night and I try my best to stay away from 'fans' and paparazzi. I can't stand the media they just take one like thing you do and blow it out of proportions and twist every little thing you say."
"Tell me about it!!! I'm famous for being well of course a genius and Iron Man. But I'm also the CEO of my father's company 'Stark Industries' so I have to deal with Paparazzi all the time. That's the main reason why I never fly on a commercial flight anymore, I always have to take my private jet."
"Adrien Agreste has to deal with fans chasing him everywhere he goes!!!" Chat Noir says.
"There's a reason why I hired a bodyguard for my son. And why I barely let him leave the house except for school and award ceremonies and of course his photoshoots." Gabriel comments. And Chat Noir just turns to look at his father with a silent look on his face, the only time he truly got to leave the house was when he was Chat Noir. Any other time his father forbid him from having fun with his friends.
[Deku] The teacher's supervise, so it's an exciting event where we can use our quirk's as much as we want during the games!!! Those with super strength play oversized hanetsuki to ensure a productive year!!! [Uraraka] Those paddles are gigantic!!
[Deku] Others wish for happiness and good fortune by playing giant daruma drop!! Which is always a crowd favorite!! [Kirishima] I'd rule at that!!
[Deku] They also have huge spinning top battles, if you win you're sure to grow stronger in the coming months. [Tsuyu] They're humongous!!
[Deku] On top of that, the Cook Hero: Lunch Rush makes traditional New Year's food and Mochi. [Ochako] Mochi?!
[Deku] Oh yeah and the school festival beauty pageant winner comes dressed as a Shrine madden. [Kaminari and Mineta] Oooh!!!
"Of course Uraraka was excited about the Mochi!!" Shinso says with a chuckle.
"I mean Mochi is her favorite food after all. My personal favorite food though is Katsudon and Shoto loves his cold soba."
"Why does he like cold soba? I personally like my soba noodles warm." Tony asks in slight disgust.
"It's a long story, I think it has something to do with something that happened with his mother when he was a child. So he doesn't really like going near teapots, kettles, or the stove. So his older sister Fuyumi is usually the one who cooks him soba if he asks her too." Deku explains
"What's Katsudon? Is that a type of Japanese food?" Ben asks.
"Yeah, I love Katsudon. It's pretty much fried pork cutlets that are served over white rice with an egg, vegetables, and any other condiments that you want to top it with. I usually use chopsticks to eat mine but you can also pick it up and eat it with your hands."
"My favorite food has got to be a good old fashion bucket of fried chicken!!!" Present Mic says with a grin.
"Oh My God you're just like Hawks!!! Which is ironic considering his favorite food is fried chicken yet he's technically a bird because of his quirk." Shinso says.
[Deku] So basically it's jam packed with food, fun, and cool activities!!! [Kaminari] You're telling me, if the New Year's party wasn't cancelled we would've gotten to see Hado dressed up as a Shrine Madden?
[Ochako] Mochi!!! [Sato] Not to brag or anything but I think I would've done pretty well playing Daruma drop!!! [Sero] You know it 'Sugarman'!!!
[Hagakure] Hey. What if we throwed a New Year's party for ourselves?! [Mineta] Aww.. But it's so cold outside!! Look at that snow. [Kaminari] We don't have the games!!!
[Ochako] At the very least we can get Lunch Rush to make some Mochi!!! [Tsuyu] Wow you really have a problem!!!
"Who is the young girl with the brown hair? Is she one of your classmates?" Miranda asks.
"Yeah. That's our classmate and fellow 'Dekusquad' member Ochako Uraraka also known by her hero name as 'Uravity'. Her quirk is called Zero Gravity and it allows her to make an object or person float up in the air until she releases them." Deku explains to the Young Queen.
'Dekusquad?" Amber questions.
"Our friend group." Shinso supplies.
"Yeah Class 1-A has two distinct friend groups. Our friend group the 'Dekusquad' which is composed of myself, Hitoshi, Uraraka, Shoto, Tsuyu, Iida, and on occasion Yaomomo joins us. And my friend Kacchan or 'Bakugou's friend group is the 'Bakusquad' which is composed of Kacchan, Ashido, Kirishima, Sero, Kaminari, and on occasion Jirou joins them from time to time. Everyone else in our class isn't apart of a specific 'friend group'." Midoriya explains.
"The Dekusquad probably gets in more trouble that the 'Bakusquad' despite the fact that you problem children are supposed to be the responsible ones!!!" Eraserhead says with an eye roll. He did not get paid enough to deal with these problem children every day.
"We're just more fun than the Bakusquad. You see they wear face masks and we race each other on the street. Like that time we saw raced each other in Endeavor's Ferrari. Shoto and I were on Iida's back and he was using his quirk in combination with Todoroki-kun's cold side. And Shinso, Tsu, and Uraraka were in the Ferrari and we were having a street race. Then we saw the Bakusquad at Mcdonalds and said hello before zooming past them." Deku says.
"That reminds me of when Shota and I were still UA students. We raced one another down these hills in shopping carts with our old friend Shirakumo and Tenya's older brother Tensei. And Nemuri well Midnight recorded the entire thing. We were known as the 'Roof top squad' at UA High School!!!" Present Mic says
[Tenya] I know we're missing out. But forgoing the party isn't the end of the world!! [Momo] And hosting something here. We aren't allowed to leave and we don't have the necessary supplies either.
"Couldn't Yaomomo just create party supplies with her quirk? I mean her quirk is 'Creation' after all."
"I guess so but that would mean that she would also have to use a bunch of her body lipids to do so. Which means that she would probably have to eat a bit of food before she could use her quirk. That's one of the drawbacks to Yaomomo's quirk, she can create any nonliving object she wants as long as she knows the chemical compound of the object she's making. But it burns through her body's lipids" Deku explains to the people who don't know Yaoyorozu or anything about her quirk.
"Everybody has some sort of drawbacks or limits when it comes to their quirk. Some drawbacks are a bit more manageable while others can be more dangerous and life threatening. My quirk has to do with my voice which can be projected at unbearably loud volumes and across great distances, which is great for long range attacks. However, I can get a really sore throat if I use my quirk for too long which is why I use my directional speaker which is a support item." Present Mic explains
"I often get severe cases of dry eye because I can only use my quirk while my eyes are open and I'm staring at the person whose quirk I'm trying to erase. Which is why i usually have to keep a bottle of eye drops on me at all times."
"Wait does everyone in your universe have their very own quirk? Or are some of your powers the same?" Raven asks.
"Yeah I was wondering the same thing as Raven." Madeline says.
"Eighty percent of our world's population has a quirk. And usually they get their quirks from their parents, but it typically isn't an exact copy of their parents quirk. Most people have a genetic mutation of their parent's ability. And according to a theory, quirks will only get stronger as each generation of quirk wielders is born." Deku explains
[Mirio] Say it ain't snow. [Class 1-A] Huh?! [Mirio] Merry Christmas everybody!!!
[Deku] Togata? Why are you here? And Christmas is over!!! [Tsuyu] Should we worry about frostbite? [Ochako] Also he's melting all over the living room.
[Kirishima] You didn't have to go through such lengths for a joke bro!!!
[Mirio] Haha. You're probably right!! Surprise, the hero and support courses worked together on something cool for you. A totally awesome brand new event for the next New Year's party. Are we excited? I know this years event was cancelled, but since you're stuck together. I figured I'd drop by and see if you wanted to check this out. Think of it as a secret sneak peek.
"Oh so Mirio was the one who gave you the game huh? Interesting..." Eraserhead says.
"Technically it's not Togata's fault that Kacchan is a sore loser. Or that he likes to explode things when he gets upset." Deku says remembering how their battle had ended in a tie before Bakugou decided to use his quirk and ended up blowing up the entire dormitory building.
"Explode things? Isn't that kind of dangerous?" Shadow Weaver asks. She might be a villain, but even she knew that teenagers shouldn't be playing with explosives.
"That's actually what I was thinking myself. What do you mean by your friend likes to 'explode things when he's upset'?" Roland asks in concern. That didn't seem like a very safe way to vent out feelings.
"Kacchan- Bakugou's quirk is called 'Explosion' his Quirk allows him to secrete nitroglycerin-like sweat from the palms of his hands and ignite it on command, allowing him to create strong explosions. The more Katsuki sweats, the stronger his explosions become." Deku explains.
"Oop not you calling Bakugou by his first name." Shinso says
"I've called him by his first name many times, again we grew up together 'childhood friends' and all. Also he knows better than to make me mad, like he did that time that he broke my All Might figurine."
"I remember that, Midoriya kicked Bakugou around the dorms like he was a soccer ball and then kicked him through at least two or three different walls, because he touched and broke his limited edition All Might figurine. Not even his boyfriend Shoto Todoroki could help him, not that he was even trying. If I remember correctly Shoto was actually recording the entire fight on his phone and laughing at Bakugou getting his as- butt kicked." Shinso says with a snort.
"Recovery Girl was pissed afterwards too. Do you realize how many injuries you gave him Problem Child?"
"Of course I do, now he knows not to touch my LIMITED EDITION ALL MIGHT MERCH!!! I do not play when it comes to my All Might Merchandise." Deku says with a glare in his eyes.
"Trust me we know, I remember when you were in an entire mood for an entire week after you accidentally lost one of your All Might figures. He had absolutely no chill and just started calling everybody out. Then the League of Villains came and they were scared of you. I'm pretty sure Twice or whatever his name is started crying because of how scary you were."
"Again, never mess with my All Might merch!!!"
[Kirishima] Is it big? [Mirio] It's not that big. [Uraraka] Can I play? [Mirio] As long as you learn the rules.
"Learn the rules of what?" James asks
"You'll see in a few minutes." Deku explains
"I'm assuming based on your reactions earlier that it's some sort of game correct?" Ben asks
Deku nods in affirmation, "U.A. Heroes Battle!!!"
"Wait so this 'game' has to do with you fighting one another? How is that safe?" Barry asks in confusion.
"Bar. You have no room to talk about other people's safety. Remember how you almost tried to turn yourself into to those evil alien Dominators?" Kara asks with a grin.
"Yeah and then you, Oliver, and the rest of our friends including Cisco and Felicity decided to stop me. Felicity even lectured me afterwards. It was almost as bad as the time she found out about that incident with Zoom and then decided to hit me. Then she just hugged me like it was nothing." Barry says with a grimace. Felicity might not look it, but she could definitely be scary when she wanted to be.
"Oh trust me, I know all about 'angry' Felicity Smoak. I've been on the receiving end of her death glares and angry smacks more times than I can even count." Oliver says
"It's almost as bad as when Caitlin or Iris does it. I can't count how many times I've had to deal with an angry 'Caitlin Snow' or should I say 'Killer Frost' which despite the name doesn't mean she's a killer. She is just a meta human like myself who has cold powers."
"One time I heard Cisco say that he was much more afraid of Caitlin's 'glares of death' than he is of dying at the hands of an evil speedster or an evil meta human." Kara chuckles.
"That sounds exactly like something Cisco would say." Barry agrees with a laugh.
[Tenya] Toogata. What is the name of this celebratory activity?
[Mirio} It's called 'U.A. Heroes Battle!!!' Let me break it down for you, in this game you'll battle each other using cards that represent U.A. Hero course students. You guys!!!
"Oh I get it, so this is like some sort of 'battle cards game' right? Sort of like Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh!." Chat Noir explains.
"Oh, I love Pokemon!!!" Shinso says with a grin.
"Yeah, I can tell. Considering your boyfriend Kaminari is practically a human version of a Pikachu. Except Pikachu doesn't fry his brain whenever he uses to much of his thunder/lightning power." Deku says in a teasing manner.
"What do you mean by he fries his brain?" Adam asks in confusion before turning to look at his sister who is equally confused.
"Kaminari's quirk is called 'Electrification', which allows him to release electricity and emit it out of his body in powerful blasts. He can also potentially electrocute anyone around him if he isn't being careful. Which is why he requested a special support item from U.A.'s Support Course which helps him direct his electricity towards a specific target." Midoriya explains.
"Yeah, I can totally see the resemblance between this kid and Pikachu." Tony says. Peter has forced him to watch the original Pokemon series more times than he can count. And the boy has also forced him to play 'Pokemon Go' around Stark Tower and the Avengers Compound.
"I guess a lot of things are universal among our different universes. We all have similar 'animes' and our universes have Pokemon. Interesting." Barry says.
"It could be a 'multiversal' thing. You know how almost all the earths in our earths located in our multiverse have similar things in common such as certain events that have effected different people. Like for example Barry's speed. He became the Flash afte rhe was struck by lightning, but there is more than one version of the Flash. Just like everyone has a doppleganger." Kara explains which only seems to confuse the people who haven't dealt with 'alternate' earths or don't have powers.
[Class 1-A] Woah!!! [Kaminari] What's up with my eyes? [Mirio] Ehh, don't sweat the small stuff. [Mineta] Well I'm confused. Don't character cards in games like this usually have descriptions or some sort of power stats on them? How are we supposed to play with these things?
[Mirio] Don't worry that's where the support course came in!!! Check this out. A high tech futuristic battle board!!! You toss a card down on this bad boy and it takes in the necessary information. And turns your fighter into a 3D figure ready to fight your opponent.
[Deku] Oh Wow. They really went all out!!! [Mirio] The board will go into much more detailed instructions as you play. Jump into a round and you'll catch on. [Class-1A] Thank you so much!!!
"No offense but those giant eyes are he- extremely creepy." Tony says
"Yeah we know. All of the cards were designed the same way with the huge eyeballs. Trust me I didn't really like them either."
"When exactly did Bakugou decide to join the party? He's the only student I don't see in the common area." Present Mic asks
"You know Kacchan. Always has to take a nap and get his 'beauty' sleep. Even Aoyama doesn't sleep as much as he does and all of us know how much of a drama queen that he can be about his looks and appearance."
[Deku] It looks like we touch the button to begin the game.
[Hatsume] Welcome to U.A. Heroes Battle everybody!!! [Deku] Wait Hatsume's in this game? [Hatsume] If you don't know the rules yet they're incredibly easy to learn. You'll play the Class A cards or you may choose some extras along the way. The battle board will automatically judge the abilities of the character on each card that you play. And then your holographic player will use attacks, defense measures, or special moves in the way that benefits you most. Helper heroes are also available to play via extra cards. However, you can only use those babies once before the disappear, you'll want to be careful and come up with a smart strategy.
"Who is she? Another one of you classmates?" Gabriel asks.
"Not exactly. That's Mei Hatsume of U.A.'s Support Course. She's a support course student who works with the Pro Hero Power Loader to create different support items for heroes and students of the hero course like myself and Shinso." Midoriya explains.
"What exactly are support items? I've heard you talking about them before." Nathalie asks
"Support items are items or pieces of gear that a hero or person uses to either enhance their quirk or they might use it to gain more control of their powers. My 'support' gear is apart of my hero costume. I have shoes with iron sole so that I can safely and effectively use my quirk with out the risk of breaking my legs because one of my ultimate moves revolves around me kicking a lot. And I also have a pair of gloves that helps me use my ultimate move 'Air force'. The soles of my shoes help me with my ultimate move 'Full Cowling: Shoot Style'." Deku explains
"Ultimate moves? What exactly are ultimate moves?" Ben asks.
"Long story short, an 'Ultimate move' is a move or tactic used by a hero, villain, or possibly a vigilante during battle with an opponent that is meant to leave a large impact on their opponents in battle. These techniques are usually unique to a person, and it should push the limits of one's Quirk to exploit the aptitude of a fighting style. Ultimate Moves do not have to be attacks, they simply must give the user an advantage over their opponent. Ultimate Moves can be offensive, defensive, or supplementary depending on the user's Quirk." Starlight explains
"You know Midoriya, now that I think about it. You and All Might have very similar Ultimate Moves. Are you sure your boyfriend wasn't right about you being his secret love child or something? Because it's almost like Endeavor and Shoto, where Todoroki has similar moves regarding his fire that resemble his father's moves since Endeavor's quirk is Hell Flame." Present Mic explains
"Oh My God!! How many people has my dear Shoto convinced that I'm All Might's secret love child? I already told him during U.A.'s Sports Festival that I wasn't related to All Might."
"Yet he shows clear signs of favortism towards you specifically for what reason?" Eraserhead asks
Deku just sighs and rolls his eyes.
[Hatsume] Each player needs to choose three cards to add to the roster in their hand. And much like the final round of the sports festival, you either need to defeat your opponent or throw them out of bounds. Whoever defeats their opponent's three cards first is crowned the games winner.
"Speaking of the Sports Festival." Present Mic says with a grin.
"That's where Midoriya and I battled for the very first time." Shinso says.
"Is the Sports Festival some sort of sporting event with basketball? Is it similar to the olympics?" Chat Noir asks.
"No. The U.A. Sports Festival is an annual event held by U.A. High School where students from all grades and courses have the opportunity to showcase their abilities in different competitions in order to be scouted by Pro Heroes and support agencies." Present Mic explains.
"That's also where Shoto and I fought for the first time. And when I convinced him to finally use his fire side despite the fact that it reminded him of Endeavor."
"Endeavor was very annoying during the Sports Festival. He kept showing bias towards Todoroki just because that's his son." Present Mic says in an exasperated tone.
"I'm sorry, but you were totally showing bias yourself during that battle between Uraraka and Bakugou. You literally started cheering for Uraraka and agreed with the crowd when they started booing Bakugou." Eraserhead tells the blonde with an eye roll.
Hizashi just shrugs his shoulders, "It's not my fault the crowd was actually making some very good points. Also I still wasn't as bad as Endeavor was during the Sports Festival, I was just doing my job and being a host and narrator."
[Class 1-A] Rock Paper Scissors!!!
[Deku] After a few tense rounds of Rock Paper Scissors. We finally decided on who would the be first among us to try out the game.
'Izuku Midoriya Vs. Mashirao Ojiro'
"Rock, Paper, Scissors is the solution to everything!!!" Peter exclaims.
"Yeah, best two out of three is always a good option when you're trying to decide who should do something." Tony says
"I don't know. Barry's a speedster which means he can easily cheat at Rock Paper Scissors if he wanted to." Oliver says
"What? Me I would never cheat. I'm just too good of an opponent for you Ollie."
"Mhm. Right I totally believe you. Just like you've never cheated at poker or spades before right?" Oliver asks Barry in a knowing tone.
"I'm a rule biding citizen Ollie. I would never cheat."
"Tch I would. If I had superspeed I would totally use it to my advantage." Tony says.
"Just like how everyone practically abused their quirks during that abomination of a baseball game." Eraserhead says with an eye roll.
"Hey, it's stated in the HLB guidelines that Pro Heroes and team members are allowed to have full use of their quirks during the course of the game. There's no cheating involved just friendly competition among two teams of players all of which are allowed to use their quirks to catch the ball, hit the ball, or even prevent the opposing team from hitting the ball like Kamui Woods did with his chain prison." Present Mic says with a grin.
He always loved being the Sports Narrator for the HLB baseball games. They were always entertaining to watch in person.
"That sounds fun. We have a superhero fight club where we get to use our powers as much as we want to either fight one another or some random creature or meta brought forth by our friends." Barry says.
The next Fandom that they will be reacting to is Pokemon (the Original anime). And then I will most likely make them react to Descendants songs or Sofia the First.
