Yuuto Samejima Shizume Stradivarius Kazu FureuHaving recently finished developing a new high end training facility, and wanting to really put it to the test before implementing regular training simulations, a high end company trying to latch itself onto the hero community while it was in it's infancy had offered its services to the government for a free trial period. They had no formal 'simulations' of their own in place yet, but impressed with the facilities they provided, the hero association was quick to turn to UA school to try and find suggestions from their skilled teachers, and their studnets in training. In part, this was also in the hopes that using students first would give the facilities a 'baby's first trial run', as a full squad of genuine pros could be a little much for the facility to handle, and the students would be able to provide data that could improve it before moving onto full pros. Now, the question still existed in what to do with these facilities. The Teachers had initially intended that the lessons be run by some of their own number, but by request of the Hero association, be it as a PR move or simply to change the normal flow of the student's expectations, had made their own request...The students who had been chosen for the course were informed simply. Monday of the following week, their last two lessons of the day would be replaced with a trip to this training facility. A teacher would not be accompanying them, but an official government chaperone would be driving them to their destination as a group, and informing the school when they arrive. They were to be taking part in a Civilian rescue exercise, with little more information to go on till the day of. Hopefully, they weren't made too antsy by the wait... =============== Day of the Lesson ====================
As the young heroes in training were driven in a sleak black car to their destination, a large dome shaped facility far out at the edge of Tokyo city, they were guided inside by their chaperone in a black suit and shades, before being handed off to a rather excited young girl, with scales for skin and a pronged tail swaying behind her, a lanyard with an employee card hanging from her neck, and the logo of the company 'Saikyuen' (a portmanteau of the japanese words for disaster and rescue) across her breast pocket.
"Helloooooo!~" She chimed out, a flick of a reptillian tongue slipping between her lips. She seemed not much older than the students she was working with, handing each of them a small I-pad like device, though it seemed both oddly more disposable, yet more 'upscale' in an odd manner. Like someone had spent way too much money to make a resteraunt menu look cool. "Welcome to Saikyuen industries. We're so excited to have you all testing out facilities today. The hero asigned to your lesson is waiting for you inside but she-Oop!" She put a hand to her mouth, and quickly flailed in embaressment. "O-or He! Or he yup totally! Her OR she is waiting inside and asked I not reveal who they are. I'm sure you at least know it isn't one of your teahcers though! Yuppers!~"
Her tongue flicked out again. She pulled out a small clicker device, and with a press of the button the pads the kids had been handed shimmered to life. A brief disclosure form, terms of agreement, all that jazz that they would politely be asked to sign as the lizard girl guided them to their facilities. As they passed through a set of double doors, the room was nearly pitch black bar a few service lights leading up what seemed to be a fire escape. It was difficult to see more than 10 feet in any direction beyond this single structure that seemed to go about 10 floors up, but from the immense breeze, it was clear the room they were in was immense in scale.
"Now, before you go up there, let me inform you all of the rules." She clicked the clicker again, the pad screens switched. Showing images of a child sized dummy (very un-life like, like a teddy bear filled with fluff rather than a physical model), flooded streets, and metal bridges across rooftops. "Welcome to the first of Saikyuen's amazing Dire Rescue simulations. Once you're all on the roof of this building, you will have 1 minute to confer with eachother before the simulation starts. The 'streets' will be flooded" The images provided were of past flooding disasters, so with the girl's air quotes it implied they may have to use their imagination for that. "And it is your job to get your Civilian rescue charge from your starting point to the finish line. This is still a work in progress so you may handle the decoy a little roughly so long as it does not drastically tear or rip."
She hit the clicker again, and seemed a little nervous as the pads went dim.
"I'm...sure you all have questions, but this really is a first run for us. Simply put, anything goes to achieve your goals. The entire area is fully at your disposal, the interiors of buildings, bridges can be moved if you have the strength for it, you must simply rescue the civilian in the face of your asigned villain and...there's not much more to it. If you need to, take a moment to breathe, but know once all 3 of you are on the roof, it will be one minute before the simulation starts."
She hoped to god they had few questions, as she was only trained in the primary introduction.
Should the students choose to reach the roof, the service lights would surround a small child sized dummy in the middle of the rooftop. It was difficult to see anything beyond their own building. The edges of the next one? Maybe. But anything beyond those? Absolutely impossible, beyond the faintest idea that there were slim, taller structures in the distance.

Man it's been a while since he has ever met a non-school Chosen One up close. Lately it seems all the chosen ones were just walking around UA, just like how a typical light attracts moths. Truth be told, it was great for the first couple of months since he he gets to be within close proximity, but at the same time it kinda fades away when you keep seeing the same ol chosen one every day. It's why outside Chosen Ones are a treat to witness in awe: You aren't exposed to them as much, and therefore are liable to be surprised by whatever they do.
...It's just that he has no idea who or what this chosen one even is.
Yeah, in hindsight he probably should have asked "what's all this about" before quickly accepting this whole deal. Apparently, they are to be taken to perform a special civilian exercise, with no other thing to go on about. Imagination quickly spewing a story about meeting a potential chosen one who he has never met before quickly grabbed the reigns of his mental thought process, and so gladly accepted it. Not the most logical of decisions but hey, more training to be a good hero is always good, right?
The car ride was a bit odd, but hey. No teacher as well. Odd again. Perhaps they were in another ride? Perhaps. The car that he was in had two of his fellow classmates near him. Yuuto from their casual chats and passing through of the dorm halls and him fighting other people seems like a reasonable person, if a bit rough around the edges. Shizume he knows already from previous events; the ever rhyming odd thinking girl. She lives in her own world, thinks the chronicler of the world to himself closing his chronicle after writing down potential speeches to use later on. She's a bit weirder than usual. Odd choice of clothing...eh. Other than that, there were some other people who signed up. Perhaps he will join them. Or maybe not.
Upon arriving at the place, it's quite obvious why they made it a secret. Big dome, outside Tokyo. All this effort being shown live on display. Something to write down for future use. Or he would if he didn't felt the odd presence of 'security guard staring at his soul telling him not to do it." He looks at the young woman there, nodding and greeting her back. He catches note of her slip of the tounge. Ah, so a female chosen one, not one of his teachers. That does shorten the listen within the Pros. But what if it's not a Pro? Might be. He looks back at Shizume and Yuuto to see their reactions, if any.
Walking with the guide, they were told some more details about it through the wonders of technology aka some tablets. Nice tablet as well, would be nice to keep it but eh, some items must remain at their point of origin. Maybe if he gets a special cover for this size he can pass it off as a book...ooh that can be co- Focus, Kaz. What is she saying? Right, the doll. 1 minute of briefing, and then rushing towards the big teddy and save it, while the villain ( the chosen one of the the day) stops them. Logical. Reasonable.
He kicks up some small chat with Yuuto, and attempts to do the same with Shizume. "Interesting place, right Samejima and Strav? Bigger than the previous places I and others have trained in. Far more...involved in its constructed, so to speak. Bit too involved...Actually wow, how much did they spend here? All this for a training facility? What kind of budget did they have?!" He shakes his head to snap himself of the slight envy he was brewing. "Anyway. I cannot wait to see your shark be of great use for us, Samejima, and your sound manipulation as well, Stradiv. I myself...Eh...uh...Well, hopefully I can pull my own weight..." he says nervously. He waits for the others so they can head to the roof.

Had it already been a week? A week since she was abducted from the park, taken underground, beaten down into a puddle of her own sweat and mindless pacifistic dribble? A week of bed rest, of psychological evaluations, of seeing if she was still healthy enough mentally to participate as a student of the school? Shizume had been quiet since last Sunday when she was rescued. She stayed in her room, only talked to the teachers that showed up for official purposes. None of that How are you stuff. Today was her first day back as a student and, there had been a few changes to her appearance. While she wore her school uniform like normal, she wasn’t wearing her knee-high socks, opting for a pair of black ankle socks. Over her uniform was an open black trench coat. Her normal blue hair dyed black and left hanging. No decorations. Her bangs slightly obscuring one eye. However, since this was a heroic training exercise, she brought along her demon headed bachi. The two three-centimeter-thick wooden clubs hung from the belt loops of the coat. Pure white headphones were worn over her ears and head, not seemingly trying to hide the fact that she was listening to music any more.
During the ride she saw who she had to participate in this test with. Fureu Kazu and Samejima Yuuto. Kazu was quite known to her. So far, the only one in her class to know her fatal weakness. Samejima seemed like a stereotypical shark looking for blood in the water. She supposed she was picked with them to tone down their power compared other variables for an experiment. After a quick tour, the lizard woman would give them a tablet and tell them the rules for this encounter. Apparently, this was anything goes to save a child. This realization made Shizume bite the back of her lip enough to cause a small amount of bleeding. Even if it was a fake child, she would not fail to save anyone. Not like she failed to save herself and poor Aspro. As they reach the top floor where they would do this training, she stepped towards the door way. Kazu seemed nervous, despite calling her Strav. “Is my name that much of a pain to say that you would shorten it in an insulting way? If it is then a favor for me, just use my Hero name Hibiki.” Her voice was still melodic as normal, but a darker tone to it, almost like that of Death Metal.
Shizume did not waste another breath before stepping onto the roof. Her posture was equal parts ready, aggressive, and defeated. Almost like a Noir Cop walking up on a dead body about to light a cigarette to complain about this damn dirty city. “She said we had to fight off our assigned villain. I very much doubt Thunder Bolt would be the fill-in. If anything, we may have to fight a pro, and we all know how that battle would go. Our priority is to save the child. For that we need a strategy wild. Kazu take the bear, Yuuto protect their hair. When this hero shows their face, I shall get up and close the space.” Her hands immediately took out her bachi and held it battle ready. Certainly, they were expecting to get the drop on the students, but after she was beaten down for her peace-loving ways, she was not going to allow anyone to bully her any more.

Finally! A chance to see a hero in action and up close and personal. With classes being a rather easy task and the daily routine of punching and slashing a wall becoming bland. A lesson like this is going to get the blood pumping and see how a hero actually fights. Though he was informed by the people running this little test, he had no clue which hero he was chosen to fight against. One could chum it up to the surprise factor but worrying about it never did any good for anyone. He was given the usual instructions and was given some time to prepare for the lesson since it would take two school periods.
Civilian rescue simulation is all the info he got so the objective won't be beating down the hero in question. Though depending on who it is, it's going to be fun to take em head on but he’ll just have to wait and see for himself. Though he wonders who else was chosen for this lesson since he assumes that he won't be the only one taking on the hero.
...Though in hindsight one should have asked what this about due to the entire situation looking shady as hell. But he already signed up so might as well go along and if anything happens...well he has a quirk.
======DAY OF THE LESSON=======
Being picked up in a fancy black car is both a very fancy and utterly shady if seen from the outside. The ride to the destination was relaxing despite the people around him looking like they would either put a bag over his head at a moments notice. Kaz and Shizume were also chosen from the looks of things and he did his best to make conversation with Kaz. Since he knew the guy through Red and he was the class prez, making good relations is easy with him. Him being used his kind of personality made the introduction smoother than he thought as he made talks about various things happening in shows and training.
However he feels way too awkward around Shizume due to general aura and feelings. He barely knows her since the class introduction but something about her doesn't seem right to him. Not hatred or dislike, just an underlying fear that can’t be explained with words.
But with Kaz here, the issue is mitigated and he can hide the nervousness pretty well.
Adding on the fact that there was no teacher to watch over them, the school must be okay with this. Though if his mom sister or girlfriend saw him get into the car they’d be having a panic attack right about now. Thankfully nothing of the sort happened and everything went on without a hitch.
As they got out of the vehicle, he took a breath of fresh air as they bore witness to an interesting sight, a huge dome that was built outside of the town. One could guess why they kept this a secret and why keep security here tight but that isn't why they are here.
As they entered the massive structure, they were escorted and handed off to a rather interesting individual with a device in hand. Mutation Quirk, not much older than the students, a business woman, and preppy attitude. Though her personality does bear some similarities with his girlfriend given the aura and general manner of speaking. But aside from that, she gave the usual spiel about the business at hand. She did let a detail slip but a detail as small as that don’t mean shit unless she said the actual name of the hero they are up against. To pile on the various agreements they have to sign, normal stuff for them but why get us to sign this. The tablet seemed to go on and detail on the various legal jargon to the point where it just becomes a wall of words. Are their lives in danger? Who is their villain? What kind of place is this? Whatever the matter, Yuuto will just find out for himself.
Going through a series of doors and gates raises the tension real high. Not everyday someone gets to experience something like this. The pitch dark room at the end only made heighten his sense as various screens pop up. The guide explains what they are doing in great detail and Yuuto makes sure to mentally note down as much as possible. A flooded industrial landscape to go through, a hostage to escort and a villain to fend off. The comparison images do provide a lot of visual aids on what they are trying to recreate. Pretty straightforward and it will commence once they get to that rooftop as the screens dim. No messing around or vague hints from this lady.
One minute of planning and use anything to achieve your own goals, eh? Seems Kaz had the same thought as he initiated conversation with the group. He listened to their thoughts and ideas as he was mentally preparing himself. Class prez seems more nervous than he is and Shizume is very blunt about the whole situation. The plans were simple and straightforward, but once the ball starts rolling who knows what will happen.
Yuuto walks up to the roof with a strut as he prepared himself for the battle ahead of him. He holds up his hand and summons forth Razor in front of him and then he starts to alter himself into a quadrupedal shark. The shark has enough room to fit the group with the hostage, water and building won't be the problem. He heard their ideas and plans, but the only thing left is the ‘villain’ they will be up against.
“Class Prez. Shizu. I’ll act as the Vanguard and see what I can do about the pathways...I'm itching for a fight.”, Yuuto tells them as he sits up on the shark with a smile on his face. The chain connecting his left wrist to the shark's dorsal fin. If they're going to get the hostage, they're gonna do it in style. Depending on how the villain is like, he may change his attitude.

With everyone up on the roof, making their plan of action no matter how brief it may be, the little lizard girl intern rushed back out of the room before she was caught in what was about to happen, scampering across the halls to the control room for the simulation. She'd seen the sequence run without heroes a few times now and she was not about to be caught on the ground floor of this thing. As the students worked on settling themselves in on the rooftop they settled themselves into, their 'villain' for this little pretend operation got herself ready in turn. Mia had seen this thing run once already so she could get a feel for the situation and how the advantages she had were going to work. She'd even managed to get in a few hours learning how to work with the villain costume they designed for her, which honestly was some pretty decent handiwork considering they only had assumptions to go on. It took a bit of time getting used to the costume's weapons and the bracelet she'd be wearing during this little trial run, but all in all this would be a fun way to see what the kids of UA were capable of. Apparently, she'd only be going up against first years, but hey, that just meant she'd get to see where they were now, and watch them grow going forward. Off on one of the distant rooftops, she was nearly invisible in this fake little city scape. The room filled with a dull 'BWOOOONG' to signal that the timer had started, and with some final adjustments to her costume, the Pro hero got into place. "Simulation starting in - 60 seconds."With an almost echoing clack the room's lights where switched on one by one They were sparse and well filtered, giving the illusion of a dim moonlight that still allowed them to see the world around them easily enough without being blinded by the lights in the ceiling. A duller siren let out, easy enough to be talked over but the presence of the sound was clear enough. Gaping water gates at the center of the room's 3 walls (excluding the one they entered from) started to rise, and water flooding the room little by little. The faint silhouettes of cars they may have seen on the ground floor began to rise, clearly dummy props filled with air and chained to specific points beneath the water, but as they rose and the water crashed against the hollow buildings they were traversig, it was certainly coming together for a realistic simulation. "40 Seconds."Sprinklers set to life across the ceiling and an invisible fan system blew in from the south wall, giving the trickling droplets the sense of real rain whipping in the wind. The water continued to rise till it hit up to the 5th story of the buildings they would be traversing. With the lights on, the kids would have seen that while the buildings had windows, they were clearly hollow, and a handful of windows on each wall had been left open, suggesting that travel inside the buildings was potentially possible. Of course, this wasn't a perfect solution to their traversal problems, but they'd learn that should that be the route they take... "20 Seconds..."Speakers crackled with a sound of thunder, the lights flickered in and out in time with the crackle, and the lights as a whole dimmed further, as if coated by clouds. As this all cumulated into a rather realistic, if confined little scenario, you could almost hear the sound of millions of invested yen being flushed down the drain... "10 seconds..."Another crackle of thunder, and a final clack of a light coming on. The building furthest from the students lit up with a shifting light and the dull sound of helicopter rotors echoing from the source. The implication was this was their destination, a rescue helicopter to load the civilian onto. As their eyes drifted to this destination of theres, they may have naturally spotted the small 'addendum' to one of the four metal towers litering the city scape. A bulking figure, with a red horn protruding from a thick metal mask, hefty chains flowing across her body, two weighted balls of iron hanging from them as she herself leaned from the tower like a fearsome King Kong, her gaze locked on the studnets and their civilian. "5....4....3....2..."

Ah. You know, seeing the tablet's representation didn't really prepare him for this sort of scenario. In fact, a lot of stuff often seems more grander and illustrious the moment you lay your eyes upon it for the first time, to put it in chronicler words. Those air quotes for the area flooding was super not needed, if this was the field they will be training in. Seriously...how much money is this?! Come on now! UA and now this: it feels like they have TOO much stuff to mess around with. He looks at everyone near him. Yuuto seems confident enough, and so does Shizume. Okay no, that's the wrong way to describe what Shizume was feeling right about now.
She gives off a weird aura of...uuh...well this is a bit weird to describe it but uh...hmm. The best way to describe it is that it's very similar to a show he once saw. It was archived, and it was a pretty old show, but it was still quite interesting. A night Driver series as well, so you know its good. Anyway, the character that Shizume reminds him...eeeeeeeh. He was a serious figure with a nice philosophy that contrasted the main protagonist, he got defeated, and he kinda disappeared until later on, where he showed up wearing what accounts for weird goth cowboy get up and talking about hell and people laughing at him. It's uh...hmm. It was a weird shift. And that's the kind of shift he noticed on Shizume, what with the ALL BLACK OUTFIT AND WEIRD DARK TONE. She's been gone for a couple of days, and he noticed that outfit for a bit, and its getting a bit harder to ignore just how out of place it is here. She quickly attempted to take reigns, with a weird look on Kaz's face as she talked about fighting the Pro head on. He side glances to Yuuto for a bit, then looks at him summoning his shark ally. He's seen some of it in action, so he has something to work on. Her quirk meanwhile, he knows she can manipulate sound waves so...uh, while she is a great asset in distractions and destroying ear drums...head on? What happened to her?
Anyway, back to the field and...and uh, there's water falling from the 'sky.' Great. His ascot's getting drenched. Yes he didn't dress up in his hero costume or UA tracksuit. Listen, he HAS to committ to the gimmick. And there's...actually water flooding this pla-THEN WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THE AIR QUOTES?! Well, Yuuto's partner in crime just became a whole lot more useful. And that loud noise in the distance. That's uh...well, props for being euthestiatic about fighting them? Voice is odd, so he can't really use mental records of tv broadcasts or interviews to match her voice.
He sighs as he claps his hands as a sort of warm up as he walks up to grab the teddy. Alright, makes sense. Just...just keep in mind that she's probably stronger and more experienced than us, so we can't rely on straight-foward fights. We need to think up something for when that happens, and I dont think just one can take her on." He grabs it and carries it, with his right palm open in case he needs to use his Metal quickly. "I can put up a shield if I get attacked with the bear."
"...So where should we go? The solo path or the dual paths?"

"Simulation starting in - 60 seconds."A brown wave of color washed over her senses. The clacking sound indicated a large shift in power functions over head. That was at least real. The dull siren produced a low wavelength blue light that flooded the bottom of her vision. The greyish sound of water flooding in came from the sides. However, Shizume started straight ahead. As the computer generation dark grey wave length came around them, there was no reason to pay attention. What was interesting to her was the way the buildings amplified the wave lengths of the water. They seemed almost hollow. "40 Seconds."Suddenly a flash of yellow came out from the ceiling met by a green wave from in front of them. The raindrops hitting the surface of the buildings, further emphasizing her earlier discovery. There was a lot of work to make these seem realistic, but. They also seemed like they were not built to architectural code. Just strong enough to withstand the expected forces. "20 Seconds..."The speakers blasted with an orange crash. Fake, it might have set the stage for the other players, but to Shizume it just destroyed the atmosphere of danger they were set in. This made it feel super fake to her "10 seconds..."With the final burst of light and sound, their target was located. So was their villain. Like a monster staring straight at them, the balls on the chains made it feel like the primary mode of attack was going to have reach and destruction, rather than worrying about hitting them. “We need to take the path to our right. We will not be able to avoid a fight. We do not know her speed, so it is to caution we should heed.”"5....4....3....2..."Suddenly Shizume took off in a sprint, both bachi held out to her sides, ready to strike at a moment’s notice. “We can’t afford to be boxed in. If we do that is her win. I’ll distract her first with my song, when I am out, she will face the strong.” Shizume was already certain of her defeat. Her own personal hell. Down in the very depths of a dark infernal eternity. But if she could just wear down the gorilla just 1% Fureu and Samejima will be able to complete the mission. To that end, she needed to make sure the villain came towards her. Upon her foot hitting the bridge, she spoke out. “Cell. Velocitempo Activate!” Her cellphone came alive in her pocket. The music immediately hitting her headphones sending adrenaline coursing through her veins. MODE
VELOCITEMPO
Il Mostro Her eyes illuminated lightly as her speed shot up. She separated from the two boys, eyes keeping locked on the monster in the room, moving her path to intercept once she made her move. The beat was not the most complex, but it had enough thud in it to do the job. As the words kicked in, quick paced, almost bordering on rap, Shizume started singing, her body moving on the most direct path towards her own target. “Rifletto dentro uno specchio la mia faccia
mentre il freddo di questa stanza
è come la stretta di un gigante che mi abbraccia,
un brivido mi afferra la gola per buttarmi giù.
C'è il letto vuoto ed il silenzio sul quale scivolo.
Ma basta un attimo
ed alimento coi miei occhi il mostro,
morboso di paure, già pregusta il suo trionfo.
Ma non le vedi? Parole che ti rotolano addosso.
La vita ride di te e tu fissi i tuoi stessi piedi.” TLDR: Shizume tells them she is going to be the interception, so once she is past her, the others will have a weaker monster to contend with. Admitting both are stronger than her. Shizume activates speed burst and moves herself between Mia and her classmates Translation of Italian: I reflect my face in a mirror while the cold of this room is like the grip of a giant that hugs me, a shiver grabs my throat to throw me down. There is an empty bed and silence on which to slide. But just a moment and feed the monster with my eyes, morbid with fears, already enjoying his triumph. But don't you see them? Words that roll on you. Life laughs at you and you stare at your own feet. |

The grand display of technology and its power sends shivers up Yuutos spine. Playground ii front of him is set up and his mind starts to race with all sorts of ideas as he wonders what it's going to do.
He glanced over at what Shizume was singing about and paid her no mind. Since he barely knew her, he assumed this was a normal occurrence for her. Kaz on the other hand would looked confused and shot him a side glance. He just shrugged as Razor stretched to get ready. Was it necessary? Nah but hey it looked cool.
A normal person would cower in fear at the sight of this place and even more so if one felt inadequate about their quirk. A toothy smile starts to show as she sat back on Razor and waited for the funny start. The calm before the storm and boy did those words echoed in his mind as his eyes sweep across the field. The countdown starts and once it drops.
Showtime.
-Simulation starting in - 60 seconds.-
Razor starts to ready up to jump as the storm starts to rage before them. The waters raging, the sounds of the sirens start blaring, mayhem starts to sweep across the industrial complex. His blood starts pumping as various ideas on what to do are filling his head. He grips the chain as the sounds of chaos could be faintly heard in the distance
40 Seconds
The artificial storm starts to rage on and the atmosphere of anticipation starts to rise.Water level starts to rise and not a moment of worry crosses his mind as he looked on ahead with anticipation and glee.
20 Seconds
All of a sudden, the sound of thunder hits and snaps Yuuto out of his trance of hype. It freaked him out due to how realistic it was but he held onto his chain as he told himself it wasn't real.
10 seconds…
Another flash of thunder got him again as he quickly looked around as the lights start flashing. God damn the budget spent on this place must be huge to have all of this done. Was that the sound of helicopters in the distance? Must be related to the mission at hand, but god christ this is a lot of money being used to set this all up. One hell of a promo for a company, that's for sure. He was absolutely drenched as he came in in his normal hoodie worn over his tracksuit since this will involve a lot of moving and the sort. The voice counting down adds to the drama of this situation.
5....4....3....2…
Within the moment the countdown was finished, Shizu took off in a full sprint while saying something about her course of action. The forthcoming issue is her running off on her own and saying she is going to distract the villain. Plan was short sighted and it's better to stick together in a situation like this since we have zero info on the villain at hand and their current level of danger. With this much devastation and sheer scale of the area, one could assume and figure out that the villain they're against must have high ass stats.
But her energy is not completely lost on him as she blasted off in a blast of song. Her voice echoing through the area around them, in the back of his head thought about Ran and how she has a similar quirk.
Razor starts moving and passes Kaz and Teddy, Yuuto grabbing both of them.”Song Girl took off in a blast and we can’t waste any time. Make or break it book boy because it's showtime!”, he exclaimed to him as Razor jumps off the building and into the water below. They were submerged for a few moments before resurfacing as Razor jets towards their destination of interest.
TLDR:
-See’s Shizume off and heard her words
-Somewhat concerned but shares sentiment.
-Grabs Kaz and Teddy and hoisted them on board Razor.
-Jumps off the building and into the water.
-Is now jetting to the area of interest.

Mia was lucky she wasn't a teacher cause then she'd have to be scoring these kids, and they were not off to a good start. Heck she felt the intimidating mask was doing her a good few favours here, helping her keep up the villain look while her eyes and overall expression turned a little 'dull' as she watched the lot of them unsuredly scamper about the place. The kid who grabbed the 'civilian' seemed to try and get a last minute plan going before the girl rushed ahead of the group as a whole, leaving the summoner to take the back end of trying to make a plan of action, hoisting the civilian and the first kid onto their summoned creature. So, two of them were going off with the civilian, while 1 of them was rushing out into the open. Mia had to try and think like a villain would, with the idea there was some importance in harming this civilian. From her distance she could tell where the kid had gone, but at the same time...what would a villain do... One split off from the group. Weak or strong. Best take them out now before they're a nuisance later. Pulling her weight back, Mia almost seemed to throw herself from the first tower she'd been using, her body soaring through the air with an odd sense of grace and force in equal measure. Her body almost seemed to skim across the ruined remains of a building across the street, before rushing up into the air above the fleeing girl. "All alone there? Such a shame! Good thing I'm here to BRING THE PAIN!" Luckily, she didn't know there was a rhyming thing going on, so no one could call her out on not quite getting there. Rearing an arm back behind her, the weighted ball she was carryig at the end of her chain cracked out like a whip. Mia's sharp red eyes seemed to shimmer through the slit on her mask as she made her intentions clear to the girl she was facing, a low chuckle echoing through her mask, the fake rain cascading across her muscles, as she rose her arm over her head, and the iron ball at the edge of her arc. It came slamming down with immense force just a half meter from where the girl had been standing, Red Horn's feet not yet even touching the ground as the thick iron ball crashed through the rooftop, sending up shards of rubble in the girl's direction, and making her footing far more uncertain. Mia needed to see what she could do before aiming for a direct hit. She wasn't REALLY a monster! tldr Mia bounded across the street and off the ruined building. (D rank Speed, C rank mobility) Tossed one of the iron balls on chains (D rank range) to smash through the roof near Shizume (C rank damage) Shards of the roof will be firing at Shizume, and the ground will be unstable i.imgur.com/MtLPVgD.png?1 |

20 seconds remaining.
He's noticing something off about the two. The obvious thing is that Shizume seems far detached from their scenario. At the very least let yourself be involved in the atmosphere. All of this is being played for their benefit, to set the mood. Come on now. He's kinda a bit annoyed by her off putting attitude now. What the hell happened to her? And now he's back to being concerned for her. Seriously, what the hell happened to her? The second thing is that during this display, Yuuto looked a bit off. As if he was recoling a bit from the loud noises. Kaz looks at him, wanting to say if he was alright, but he managed to snap himself back into reality. That's good, he nods at Yuuto. As for himself, well, he stretches his arms a bit. Razer did the same as well, kinda cool.
10 seconds remaining.
"So the right, huh? Yeah, Suppose that makes sense." Yuuto went back into his weird state, but quickly managed to snap out of it again. He adjusts the teddy in his hands. "Listen, all we gotta do is stick together and-'
5....4....3....2…
As he was speaking, he was interrupted by both the countdown and Shizume running off. "-and we can just- wait wha?!" He looks at her with a weird stare. "What you mean you're gonna distract her?! One person alone can't do that, especially with our set of experience! What?! Stradi!" Shizume is off the handle here, she's gonna take on the pro alone?! Wh-wha?! Can she? Can any of them? Wh-wha? "Do-do we go after her or…" He's completely befuddled by this. "...She's singing. Wh-why is she singi-huh?" His confusion at her sudden singing (which while he knows its related to her quirk, he's still a bit confounded by it) is interrupted by a large shark thing going pass him, with Yuuto grabbing him. "WA-WAIT HOLD ON-' he futilely screams out as they fall into the water, gripping tight onto the teddy.
And they're on water! Riding his summon! G-great! Fan-fantastic! He might drown if he falls down! Fantastic! He has the urge to scream right now, but he is holding onto the wet teddy really hard, resorting into making a small 'construct' of metal to keep him from falling. Two segments, one around the teddy and one around the shark being. As they jet off, they notice the Pro who threw herself across the field. That's uh….Oh boy. Th-that's uuuuUUUUUUUUH….CAN SHIZUME HANDLE THAT? CAN SHE REALLY? UH.
"UH, SH-SHOULD WE HELP OUT OR!" he yells out to Yuuto over the noise.
-tl;dr-
Kaz holsters himself onto the shark, he is sadly victim to the whims of Yuuto's summon.
asks if they should help Shizume out.

Shizume watched as the gorilla came flying in her direction. Perfect. If she can keep her distracted for a couple more minutes, it should just be a speed race for the two of them to reach the target. What she did not expect was the length of the chains. Diving onto the platform to her right, she felt the shrapnel cutting into her. The surface of the building easily crumbling away from where she stood. The heavy wrecking ball living up to its name. Now with a clear line of sight, the bluenette could see one of the open windows on the building across from her. Just one floor below her. If she missed, it would be a long plunge to the water below.
However, Kurome did not care about the pain. This was someone who wanted to see if she could do what was needed to save the life. She did not know what was needed so she had to just throw caution to the wind. Running full sprint alongside the chain, she made a death-defying leap off the building edge and aimed for the open window. However, the mixture of her uneven footfalls, the crumbled ground and the torrential rain caused her to slip at launch, her entire body turning sideways, and she crashed through one of the closed windows rolling a good three meters inside the building until she stopped, looking up at the ceiling.
"E non sento più l'effetto che fa
Guardo la città dall'alto
Mentre i mostri arrivano
E non sento più l'effetto che fa
Guardo la città dall'alto
Mentre i mostri arrivano
E non ti accorgi che
ora sei l'unico
arriva il mostro e tutti applaudono
E non ti accorgi che
ora sei l'unico
arriva il mostro e tutti applaudono"
Each time she sang ‘E non’, her voice shook through the entire ceiling above and the ground below their villain. While she was not breaking through the thin concrete, she was shattering the wooden structures holding the concrete in place. Weight should take care of the rest. Shizume, cut and bleeding from smashing through the window, bruised from the shrapnel and the fall, still had illuminated eyes and quickly made haste to the other end of the building, not wanting the ceiling to fall on her, only wanting it to give way under the monster.
TLDR: Shizume took a suicidal leap across the gap between the buildings, messed up ehr launch and went through a pane of glass. Used F-Rank Drumbeat with her E-Ranked Range to break the wooden support sturcture holding the concrete up Ran out of the way. |

“She already decided to blast off on her own and we are already in the water !! The goal is to get to the exit and we got a head start...We’ll have to place or bets on her on how long she can keep her occupied...”, Yuuto exclaimed to Kaz as Razor was going full speed ahead. Watching area around them as shark quickly swam his way forward. The both of them were absolutely soaked but it was a hasty decision given the area.
However his thoughts differed from his response as he is damn well prepared for the hero to come after them. Using class prez as a decoy doesn't sound like a bad idea but that would leave him on his own. Adding onto the issue of how far he can get if Kaz can keep them busy. The only other option is to fight the hero himself so he could buy class prez some time to get out. But considering he doesn't know his stats very well, it's a 50/50 gamble on it paying off versus him being the decoy. Worse case scenario if he has to fight, he will have to fight till the very end.
A part of him is hoping that Shizu can hold off the hero long enough so they'd get to a more favorable area to back to the rooftops. A confrontation in the water is going to put both of em in a serious disadvantage. The sound and glimpse of the “villain” quickly getting to them is enough to send a shiver down his spine. Power Gap is huge and we have three students, with enough planning this situation could be the best.
Yuuto commanded Razor to go faster as he frantically strategized a handful of plans to use if the Hero finds them. If she decides to chase after the duo then using the environment would yield a better result if making a get away. But with zero idea on how big the area is and what the hero can actually do, relying on the environment alone is going to screw them over if he messes up.
“Prez, you have any ideas on how to get back to land…or anyway to keep the hero busy?”Yuuto glanced over to Kaz as he Razor continued to go at full speed. Perhaps class prez’s quirk could be used to bind the hero if possible.But with so little info on the villain at hand might as well through half these plans into the trash if the hero is even stronger than he thought. Despite the odds, he is desperately thinking up a plan to win.
TLDR:
-Yuuto explains his reasoning to Kaz
-Razor is current going full speed ahead and ain't slowing down.
-Yuuto is thinking of a bunch of back up plans.
-He is nervous and current asking for any ideas to Kaz.

Watching her iron weight crash into the rooftop near the girl who'd tried to draw her attention, Mia got the idea that all the kids were rapidly realizing exactly what they were up against in this little simulation, and each of them were trying to slide into their necessary rolls as rapidly as possible. As the rooftop started to crumble around the young girl, Mia's leap came to an end, landing in a light hop to a full stop as the other girl rushed in the other direction, leaping across the rooftops and crashing through one of the windows. Mia would make sure she got a view of what was going on, but from what she could tell the young girl had some trained skill to her. Minimal damage from the glass, made sure to keep herself covered so she didn't blind herself. Still a risky move, but handled well. While she had a moment, the blonde Heroine made sure to get a lay of the land and the people around her. Seemed the two boys were down in the water rushing down the straight line path to the more open waters of the main street. A good move in her eyes. They came up against speed bumps more quickly but they'd more easily be able to find their way, and it'd be a sure fire way to keep moving. The more they stuck to the alleyways, the less they'd know of what was around each corner...good. Goood. Who to go after though...the girl or the boys. The boys had the civilian, but a villain would go after the easy target... But Shizume answered her question for her. In collapsing the building behind her as she ran through it, Mia's option to chase her was eliminated. If she rushed after her she might get caught in the rubble in some way or another, and it also made Shizume harder to spot. The boys however? All she had to do was peer down off the edge of the roof to spot where they were going. She took a few solid steps back, tensing the muscles in her calves and rolling back her arms, wrapping the chains around her forearms nice and tight with the iron balls tucked under her arms. With one hard kick that shattered the weak concrete beneath her feet, she was launching herself through the air again, her trajectory flowing over the two boys as they rushed through the water. "NOT SO FAST!" She called out purposely, not wanting them to rush into her attack. Much like Shizume she wanted them to have a taste of what she could dish out with a miss on purpose as her first attack. In the line of their escape, she put her strength behind one of her iron balls, the chained weapon descending like a meteor into the water, crashing heavily through the surface tension. For a moment it seemed like little would come, a space created in the water, a vacuum space devoid of liquid, and soon enough filled as the water came crashing back in, colliding with itself and spraying back out into the surrounding alleyway. A wave at least 10 feet tall rushing back towards the two boys as the water tried to accomodate itself in the limited space. tldr Mia finished her leap. Landed on the starting building. Analyzed the kids moves While Shizume probably thought they were making it harder for Mia, they just reduced their viability as a target Mia turns on the boys Leaps over them, slams down one of her weights into the water ahead of them Limited space creates a hefty wave Map i.imgur.com/SJjLSwN.png?1 |

Here's a new experience he gets to regale back to his sister this weekend when they meet up at the usual place to eat: He got to ride a shark today and is about to die to a monster.
Alright, she's not a monster, but the way the 'villain' is acting, it's pretty clear that she wants to give off that impression. And as an actor, he will give her the satisfaction and see her as what she intended to play it as. A red screaming monster who jumped from one end to another. And with that the appropriate response should be given to her, otherwise she would be insulted by it.
As he was thinking about Yuuto's statement, about Shizume's brash decision, he tightens up the metal 'rope' construct around the teddy, which appears to be getting slightly wetter as they jettisoned towards the goal. Noble as it was...you need to think logically about this. Shizume vs a pro: no go. She would have to use hit and run tactics to survive more than a minute with the pro, and barring sound manipulation...does she have anything?
A loud sound is heard, along with potentially crumling? Was it crumbling? Alright suppose that answers his question. Perhaps that would be enough to slow her down enough for them to get farther into the- Oh no wait nevermind, they're boned.
His eyes slightly widen as he makes the 'ring' around Razor even more tighter. One constant flow, several branches of metal flowing from his hand. He's gotten better at that, and good thing too. Otherwise there was a strong chance he would have fallen off the shark and sank down. That would be embarrassing and also horrifying. Her mask is somewhat visible, but he's too focused on trying to find a way on how to get out of this. Yuuto asked how to distract her or get onto land. But the thing is...do they really have to stay on land for this? They have greater mobility on water, while she has to jump around. Faster yes, but at the end of the day she has to jump; she has to place effort. Right now they are on what amounts to a jetski. Right now she's blocking one of two routes: the one she's blocking is on their current path, straight away. A wave is coming up. Coming up on their left is a new path. Razor is going at top speed, and even with the huge wave coming up, it'll be hard to turn manually in such a harsh manner.
So he'll help out. He looks ahead where the gap is. He looks at the left wall and starts planning out. If he jettisons a new branch of metal there, they can use that to turn easier. Better than nothing right now. Metal slowly forms from the ring over Razor as it shoots out in front of them, hitting the left wall near the gap. It's not fully solid so it can be manipulated and won't hamper them too much. 'TURN. TURN LEFT. GO." If they do turn left, he'll do his best to reduce the length of the 'rod' to help Razor drift inward better, making them go to the left path without any major setback. Hopefully.
tL;DR
shoots out an rod to help Razor drift to the left route ahead of us.

OK that was not as she expected. She had aimed to brign the monster to the same level as her. She could already feel her adrenaline slipping. Using the most of the last burst of speed, she clumbsily ran up a makeshift ramp from the debris and got to the top. At the top she stumbled and fell onto her back. Her speed was drastically reduced as she tired herself out. Her little bit of a gamble seemed to have failed. She was already attacking the boy that had stuck together and…
Shizume blinked at the thought that just coursed through her head. Everything she did was based on sound. She can make sound do damage, it can make her faster, and it can disorient an opponent. This brought a bit of a twisted smile to her face. If this didn’t work, nothing was going to. Rising her hands to chest height in front of her, she relaxed, She never tried something this crazy before. And right now, she didn’t even need to aim.
“Is what I feel now a omen?
A curse brought up my soul.
Can you feel my soul showing,
Like the bottom of the bowl.”
Her hands went around conducting the sound of this sweet, soft song that almost instantly echoed with three different voices. As the last word of the song was sung, the wave would be instantly shot out. Everything, including Shizume herself, was hit by the quadruple tuned song. Not only was it cracking the concrete in the area, exasperating the cuts on her skin and bruises on her body, but ti also took a wave of nausea from her Green Note. This was the true thing she wanted to land. Certianly at her level she wasn’t going to do enough damage to the woman to take her out, But if her song could make her nauseous and stumble a bit, that would give the boys a fighting chance. Almost instantly after the song had it's effect, Shizume doubled over coughing and holding her ribs.
TL;DR: Shizume used the last of her speed to get on the roof again only to plop down. She then combined the effects of Beatbox and Green note into one song which also hit her like a wrecking ball. |
