Always good to have options, yeah?”[/color] Mamoru didn’t realize Mina’s insult and took it as as complement. She whispered something to Donny which made Mamoru curious, but before she could ask what it was about the teachers came in. It was time to review what happened at Training Ground Echo! Mamoru returned to her seat and watched the clips with great interest. She was eager to know what happened while she was out. Even as the teachers critizied her methods, Mamoru didn’t seem too annoyed or bothered. She was just glad that they noticed her efforts. [color=pink]”Eh heh. Whoopsie me~”[/color] Mamoru watched the clip of what really happened at Point C. To be fair she wasn’t really trying too hard to think or remember about it; she had a vague idea of what she did and filled in the blanks herself. So while maybe she wasn’t exactly [i]struck[/i] by the truck so much as she [i]lunged[/i] at it, she had to admit, she felt pretty badass in hindsight. She got first win! Plus it made her feel randy as hell thinking that maybe some of the others would see what she did and rightfully be fearful of her power. Sure she couldn’t do a lot of impressive things with her quirk, but she certainly had the moxie to do what others consider the unthinkable. [color=pink]”To be fair senseis, I really don’t know what the others from Team Alpha were capable of. All I saw was a big metal truck driving dangerously in a dust cloud and I wanted to stop it. Though I will make sure that next time I’ll fight smarter and not get myself eliminated so soon!”[/color] Mamoru sounded so cheery, yet it also felt like she was still missing the point. Mamoru watched the rest of the clips with awe, feeling very disappointed that she missed out on all this action. Especially learning that Reina, the super quiet girl that Mamoru had not noticed at all, was actually pretty badass. Mamoru felt that perhaps she needed to think less like herself and more like Reina. While Mamoru also jumped into danger head on without hesitation, the reason she did so was far less considerate than Reina. The clips also showed a lot of what Jett did. Mamoru couldn’t help but feel a lot of what went wrong was inadvertantly his fault. Mamoru wouldn’t have crashed into a windshield if he didn’t bring a truck along and drove like a madman, after all. Plus it seemed like he was just toying around with everyone; his “fight” with Toni merely moved her out from Point C, and he ended up getting into a slugfest with Ezra instead of trying to recover his stamina or regroup with the others. But in the end, Jett was just doing everything he could, and so was Mamoru. As the presentation went on Mamoru also glanced at Acion. He talked fancy and made a big show of himself, but she felt his involvement was oddly miniscule. While ultimately the winner in his fight against Reina, he didn’t really leave Point C or worked with the rest of his team. Mamoru had hoped that keeping everyone at Point C would allow them to fight with eachother; Acion for example could have brought Toni back to Point C in a flash after Jett had warped away with her. And even as powerful as Reina was, she obviously wasn’t going to start a fight without some prompting. Acion could have just ignored Reina since she wasn’t going to fight on her own and focus on Jett, who was a more active threat. In fact a theme Mamoru noticed, and that she is also guilty of, is how little synergy everyone had. They all fought their opponents by themselves or were working alone. Kenichi lost Point A because he rushed in without backup, Roy was defeated by Mina because he also went in alone and pulled off a big all-or-nothing attack, Acion dueled Reina and learned that she was a solid counter to him, and Toni just had bad luck against an opponent who had super mobility. Mamoru herself considered the things she could have done if she had simply waited for her teammates to rally. She could have flown above the dust cloud with Acion and stalk the truck from above. With Toni she could have tossed some of the rubble in the way of the truck or those inside of it. If Kenichi stayed back they could have worked together to keep the rest of Team Alpha stuck on their truck and the rest of their team could pelt them from afar. The possibilities were endless, but Mamoru could only think of what [i]she[/i] could have done herself, rather than what [i]they[/i] could have done together. [i][color=pink]”Well, no need to worry about stuff like that. We’ll all improve and that’s all that matters!”[/color][/i] The teachers ended their presentation, assigned the homework, and now they had fifteen minutes before the next class. Mamoru then went over and sought out Reina, an eager look on her face. Mamoru wasn’t even next to Reina when she started gushing about her. [color=pink]”That was so cool Reina-chan! You were flying around and tossing stuff like a super psychic!”[/color] Mamoru felt herself literally drawn to Reina, not that she realized that it had anything to do with Reina’s quirk. Mamoru then also noticed the black orbs rotating around Reina; honestly considering all the weird stuff at this school, Mamoru had completely missed out on this. Poking one of the black orbs Mamoru continued to gush on Reina. [color=pink]”I thought Acion-kun would be the king of air combat, and yet you’d did your thing and fought him in his own turf! Just, swoosh, right into the sky with him ready to knock him out of his sky! Damn, just think, if you had found my shield in that truck you could have really given Acion-kun a bad day! I mean granted Acion-kun might’ve lost so in a way I’m glad you didn’t, but still with all that hustle you pulled you really showed what sort of a badass you are!”[/color] [@Silver Carrot][@Riegal] [hr] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/X6y1z1z.png[/img] [color=firebrick][h3]Donny Yang[/h3][/color][/center] Donny’s face would have grown red if he had blood. Mina was so close to him, and even though they were practically all over each other during their fight, it was much more different now that Donny was in his meat bag. Not only that but she was able to figure out who he really was. Of course that didn’t really surprise Donny, it was inevitable really. Hearing that she was going to wash and return them to him made him feel more embarrassed than he really should have. What was he expecting her to do, keep them? [color=firebrick]”O-Okay.”[/color] Donny was completely tongue tied and couldn’t even say a thing by the time the teachers came in. Donny just returned to his seat without another word, not even a goodbye. [color=firebrick]”Oh god…”[/color] Donny hide his face in his hands. He couldn’t bare to watch as the teachers started talking about the fights. He had [i]no idea[/i] they were being recorded this whole time. Even if his only clips of him included him crawling underneath a truck, they had a recording of all of Point B falling into the ground. He couldn’t even deny involvement because they called him out specifically for it’s destruction. He was almost speechless. [color=firebrick]”I… I at least t-t-t-t-t-told everyone t-to l-l-l-leave first…”[/color] But he knew it was a weak excuse. It wasn’t as if he was just threatening them, and in fact he would have caused the whole thing to fall without letting anyone know had he not had a moment of weakness and felt guilty for what he was about to do. Donny wasn’t sure if he should feel bad for being called a villain or angry that they ignored his attempts to scare off the ones at Alpha. While he was still sulking, Donny looked back towards Mina. By now she should surely be able to easily put together who he was and what he was doing. The look on his face was that of extreme guilt and desperation, as if wordlessly asking her for sympathy. Yet Donny turned away from her shortly after, knowing that he didn’t deserve such a thing. Sure, technically Point B only fell after the other students had started causing more damage to the foundation, but that wouldn’t have been a problem if Donny hadn’t also sabotaged the whole place beforehand. And sure, he saved Mina from her live burial and even saved her modesty by giving her his gym clothes, but neither of those things would’ve happened if he wasn’t such a mad man and made her chase him into the pipes. And seeing the sheer destruction at Point C, if Donny just wasn’t so damn insecure about letting people see his true form, maybe he could have helped his teammates win their battles more cleanly. It made Donny feel especially guilty seeing Acion getting thrashed and fighting so hard against Reina. While Donny didn’t know Acion too well, and he frankly though the six-winged student was a weirdo, he seemed like a respectable guy. Donny could have helped him, but instead he was off plotting the death of anyone at Point B. Acion was definitely a weirdo, but he also was the type of guy who at least followed the rules of what it meant to be a hero. Unlike Donny, who at the time was more focused on winning. Soon Mr. Yoshida turned off the projector, turned on the lights, and gave his final thoughts to everyone. He was certainly right: everyone had a long road ahead of them before they could even dream of being a pro hero. The student handbook was given to everyone, though it was more like a student textbook. The bell for the next class would be in fifteen minutes, giving everyone time to talk about their battle. Donny just sunk into his chair and hoped no one questioned him about what happened at Point B. He just wasn’t sure how he’d handle it. Instead he opened the handbook and started reading, hoping that maybe no one would bother him then. [i][color=firebrick]”Ugh… Lunch can’t come fast enough, and I’m all out of snacks. This fucking sucks…”[/color][/i] [@Silver Carrot]
