Meara nodded her head as the elder man spoke about the strange nature of quirks and how they can change throughout one's life. Meara had already experienced her quirk changing and she had a strange feeling that it was going to keep changing as she went through her training. “Yeah yer right sir, it can indeed be difficult to fully grasp how one’s quirk works.” she said as she powered down her quirk. She looked back on how many ways her quirk has developed as changed over the years. “When my quirk first manifested it was just my arm cannon.” She said as she looked down at her right arm. “Over time the whole suit began to form as well. Then I got and lost an energy whip and now I have enhanced strength.” She said as she began to walk back. “Quirks are still just a big of a mystery as they were when they first became documented no?” She said.
She laughed a little bit as he asked her how much she had used her quirk in training. “Well I’ve been using it in training for almost as long as I’ve had it. It’s really just became a part of my normal training routine. And as for more specifics I’ve been sparing with it long before I came here to Japan and UA.” She said her voice trailed off as she spoke. “My elder brother and I use ta spar almost every day once I got a firm control over my quirk. I’d say he’s the main reason I’m as well versed as I am.” She said a touch of sadness in her voice.

He nodded along approving and agreeing with most of what she said. He should have figured he thought with such a quirk training must have been a regular part of her life for sometime. Some quirk's as given his own why he should have expected that. Such quirks meant it wasn't exactly something people could easily ignore or set aside during normal life. Many quirks were as natural and part of someones life like someones left or right arm or any other body part. But hearing that it was pleasing. He had respect she must have known what she was doing with her powers was becoming more and more clear as their meeting continued.
"Very well, That all sounds good to me." He'd say briefly nodding setting his cane and other items to the side as he began to stretch lightly himself. A few small pops heard as his old bones moved under the weight of his massive body and frame. Winding his arms as well lightly as his rough leather like lizard skin roughly worked out some tension. "I think a controlled environment training would be good. Out here the land can take a beating and with your quirk you'll be able to let loose more then you normally could in a training facility or gym or any of those namby pamby training places! Here I can assume the role as a strong villain come to cause havoc, An you can try and be the hero to stop me! Now I won't go easy on you but I won't go to far either! I want you to try and stop me as best you can. Think of it like a more extreme and high grade spar as well if that makes it easier for you." He said briefly explaining the coming step of their training.

Meara’s smile grew wider as Hisao told her about their next phase of training; a good, old fashioned, spar. Now this was what Meara was hoping for, a simple and friendly, but still serious fight. Meara was a firm believer that a hero in training must spar routinely with others to not only learn about your own quirk, but also grow closer with those you spar with. So needless to say she was indeed happy that her tutor was wanting to spar. “Yer on sir! But don’t fail me if I end up, with all due respect, beating ya silly.” She said confidently. Meara may sound cocky at times but she was one to never underestimate an opponent. Especially someone that had way more experience than her.
She followed her teacher’s movements as she too did some quick stretches. “Never a reason not to stretch before any strenuous activity no?” she said lightly. Meara locked eyes with her teacher as the nanites once more began to cover her body. “Good luck sir! And don’t go easy on me cause I’m a lass!” She said as her face became covered by her helmet. She took up a more offensive stance with her cannon pointed at her teacher. “Oi Mr. Villain man. I’m gonna offer you one chance to surrender now or get the beating of a lifetime!” She called out. Meara’s tone was one of jest and playfulness, as she knew that this was still just a friendly spar ultimately so there was no reason she couldn’t have a little fun while they trained.

He would only snort at first at her playful banter. Some of this kids had spirit and heart about them. He would grin briefly before letting it fade back to his normal serious expression. He cared about his students and their hearts as well as their minds. Although he always kept a serious demeanor and attitude when training them and educating them. He had to make sure they were fit and ready for what lay ahead of them and not leave them lacking for training and educated skill when the time would come when they'd truly need those skills to not only flourish in life but also survive given the dangers of this business they would in a few short years be entering.
"Heh, Amusing." He'd utter simply and briefly before his head would duck low at first as in a mere instance his body would curl as he seemed to in a mere few moments turn into ball of rough hardened flesh as the shell on his back armored around him. His tail and hands flicking hard off the ground before the ball fully closed. When this happened he was sent hurling and rolling off the ground like a large and incredibly fast boulder rolling in her direction. He'd held back some on his shove though so it wasn't so threatening it would do true harm but it was definitly fast and strong enough to risk her having to be fast on her toes. He would make sure to have her keep her wits about her and need to act fast. He'd made sure to study and observe these students leading up to the trials at hand to have some idea of how far to push them. Holding his power back just enough so they would be dealing with someone to make it difficult but not impossible to react.

Meara was primed to react to whatever sort of attack came her way. She had a pretty good hunch that her instructor was going to be exclusively melee based attacker, so she was anticipating a close ranged assault. What she didn’t expect was just how fast the larger man could move. “Woah crap!” She exclaimed. She just managed to dodge out of the way with only the tip of her foot being hit by the living cannonball that was bearing down on her. The grazing blow did knock her slightly off balance, so she had to do a quick counter spin to keep herself from falling down.
“Damn, for an old man you can move pretty quick when ya want to.” she said coyly. She hopped back a few meters to once again get some distance in between her and her opponent. Meara wasn’t too keen on trying to engage in close quarters combat with an opponent that has a clear advantage over her in that form of combat. Once she was away from him she fired off a few blasts, the blasts were not as strong as the ones she had fired off earlier. In part she didn’t want to hurt the old man by accident, but she was also curious to see what kind of punishment his armored body could take.

He didn't answer with words for her comment as the boulder of a human being showed his true speed, power, and experience he held in reserve until it was time to launch them. His slow sluggish natural state shed for the true power he had that made him one of the pro's that protected the streets of Japan even before he'd taken to UA's halls to teach this new generation.
As the boulder of an Armadillo soared past her and eventually being hit with a few blasts she'd watch the round held hard form shake lightly and briefly. The hard shell of his rolled up back scuffing and his directions briefly altered from the blasts he did little to avoid. Or perhaps couldn't do much to avoid when in crashing rolling form. Relying on experience and his other senses while his vision wasn't as useful obviously in such a maneuver.
When the blasts hit him he wavered briefly but shed see perhaps Meara that was briefly as well as lightly some of him would only partially uncurl as a large leathery rough skinned clawed foot would protrude from the sphere rolled and kick off the ground hard shattering some of the rocks bellow as he was re angled and sent rolling at her again at tremendous speed that built up from the constant moving he'd been doing. As she would try to avoid it the giant ball like a musket ball seemed to only readjust and soar at her again and not only that the speed seemed to be gradually and powerfully increasing with each tick of the clock that passed as well as each time a clawed leather hand or foot would emerge briefly from the opening crack of the sphere to launch off other surfaces to realign the path when needed as well.

Meara watched as her blasts seemingly just bounced off her teacher’s thick armored hide with little effect. “Damn he’s definitely tougher than he looks.” She said to herself. Granted she held back on those first blasts but still, to see that it didn’t even marginally slow him down was a tad disappointing. As Meara tried to return fire again she instead found herself having to continually dodge out of the way of living cannonball’s charges.
“Is it just me, or is he getting faster?” Meara thought as she continued to dodge. She fired off a few shots after rolling out of the way of another charge. The shots landed but they seemingly did nothing to her opponent. The aforementioned opponent quickly switched directions and came careening towards her at an even faster velocity. And this time, Meara was not able to avoid it completely. As she tried to dodge roll out of the way she ended up getting clipped on her right hip. The blow was solid and sent bits of her armor along with her flying. She tumbled and rolled to a stop a few meters away, waves of pain washed over her leg as a bruise already began to manifest where she took the blow. “Damn that hurt a lot.” She said as she slowly pushed herself up. “That’s ta be expected from a pro though.” She said as she stood up. She was definitely favoring her right leg and hip, leaning more on her left leg. “There’s gotta be an opening I can exploit, a small gap in that shell of his that I can hit.” She thought as she continued to observe his movements, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

She he continued to spin moving at a quick rate fast as he could muster to keep her on the tips of her toes but not at his full speed as he didn't wish to actually harm her or make it impossible. He wanted to make sure she could react and move fast but she'd have to rely on all her training and current instincts. He wanted to see how she could be when she needed everything and test it as strongly but still safe as well as he could. Using the skills he'd gathered over his years as a government pro to put all her skills now to the hardened test and trial by fire perhaps some might have called it. Even if the flames were controlled so to speak.
He'd once again as they spin and shortly after hearing some of her armor splinter off. Not being able to see it just right but relying lightly on his hearing and spinning. Not so much that he had senses super great but this was how he learned to fight more so. Spinning faster he'd have a foot emerge from his shell sphere kicking off one way or a paw shoving off that to redirect as the orb only seemed to move on direction ultra fast naturally like a bowling ball with only a slight way as it hurled down whatever be in it's path. Redirecting itself it would spin around once again with a kick of it's step. It's shell a bit rough and a few bits of it appearing a bit dinged up from what blasts had hit it. The shell being a part of Hisaos body would heal over time. It could take allot of damage but where her blasts had focused now and again had left a small dig and open space that seemed to damage a bit more. As if a turtles shell that had been damaged.
With that said he'd redirect rather quickly after passing her and dinging her armor as well. Spinning only moments after the smash and heading straight for her again this time. But this time a strong kick at the ground caused him to bounce one might say and became a soaring boulder now rushing fast towards the ground once it reached several feet in the air and rushing down at her at tremendous speed. His shell uncurling only slightly a fraction of an inch so he could peek out for just a moment upon his spinning decent.

Meara tried her best to keep up with her teacher’s movements as he continued to bounce around faster and faster. She fired off a few shots that missed badly. Every time she thought she had a shot lined up, he would quickly change direction. Meara was becoming more and more frustrated with each missed attack. With that her foot work would get sloppy and she was becoming more and more unbalanced. It quickly became a heated moment that kept repeating itself. She’d fire a few shots, miss, and get clipped by Hisao’s charge, rinse and repeat. Meara let out a furious, rage filled, scream as she released a massive barrage of blasts. Abandoning any attempt at trying to aim at any perceived weak points and instead decided to just fire as many times as she could, hoping that something would hit.
It seemed to work as she managed to hit Hisao more with this tactic, but it came at a cost. The constant firing was causing the excess energy not to be vented efficiently. And that in turn was causing her cannon to heat up and begin to burn her right forearm. But nonetheless Meara kept firing and firing, not caring about the intensifying pain. After a few moments of sustained fire one of Hisao’s charges hit more flush than was probably intended and knocked Meara completely over as he struck her square in the chest. The wind was completely knocked out of her as she writhed in pain, her chest armor falling apart as she slowly got to a knee. “Oi computer lady.” she said to the voice in her head. “Overclock Ion cannon. I’m ending this now.” she said cooly as she made her way back to a standing position. A message flashed on her HUD recommending that she doesn’t fire in her current condition. Meara promptly ignored it and forced the command to go through. A large amount of energy built up in her cannon as she took aim one last time at her teacher, aiming to finish this lesson with her standing on top. But when she fired, instead of a blast or beam of energy firing off, an explosion went off as the energy wasn’t able to be properly contained and Meara’s plan quite literally blew up in her face. The area was filled with the loud sounds of the explosion and Meara was lost in a cloud of smoke.

The blasts she fired including the mega one were truly something of might for what was expected of one in her year. Hisao's shell had been scuffed and slightly even bruised from her large blast. While he was truly hard as could be and built for blunt attacks his shell still held. But he could feel the light bit of soreness settling in upon his back where the blasts had hit or centralized on. It had been sometime since he'd taken as much damage as this as he was also moving a bit slower to keep the fight a bit far when he was pin balling about as he was prior. A extension of smoke graze wounds and busted scenery would be the summed up efforts total outcome when all the sparks ceased to fly as one might say.
It would take a bit before it would all settle and a loud hearty laugher would emerge as Hisao uncurled and stood straight up yet again seemingly pleased if not a bit spry from the spar. It reminded him a bit of his younger days training up his quirk back in the day with his peers in the old days. He took a moment to cool off and they would likely both collect themselves. Using big attacks in such a environment where one can let loose sometimes mean a battle didn't have to last too long for the peak to be reached. Real combat after all while feeling to last quite awhile was often quite short when true skill clashed with another.
"That was most certainly quite splendid. Better then I expected it would have been. We should go over some tactics but the power and timing is there. We just need more proper tactics and I feel you'll be a great ranged fighter. We perhaps in our next stage try a bit more of you trying to keep the range. Perhaps your ball form I've studied a bit on would be could for quick escapes? My suggestion being burning your foe's energy in withdraw while firing tactics?" This would continue in a lesson and teaching sort of ideal as they would rest or relax somewhere nearby enjoying the nature. Hisao likely enjoying a smoke from his pipe as they'd turn somewhat to tactics lecturing and resting after treating any injuries that needing treating of course thanks to a handy first aid kid he kept in his trunk for just such occasions.
