Ochako was staring at All-Might. If this was the old Ochako, she would be staring in awe, but after the traumatic experience she had been through, the only thought that went through her head was an eerie yet truthful one. 'Where were you when my parents were killed.'

That one thought alone made it clear to Ochako that he wasn't the best hero, that All-Might, was simply someone who had hero-like qualities, but one who boasts about them far too much. Yet, in the same vein. Something was different about All-Might. He seemed like he was stressed out about, something. Something that Ochako couldn't quite pick up on.

However, in the end, that didn't matter all that much, as the moment All-Might spoke, his passionate tone sunk away all doubts. "Hello, future heroes! You heard the rumours correctly; I am a teacher at Yuuei! But not just any teacher, I am the teacher for the hero basic training course. Or as I like to call it: Heroes 101." The number one pro hero said as eyes were all on him.

However, one voice spoke up that not only confused All-Might, but also unnerved him. "If you are the number one pro hero. Then might I ask where were you when my friends' parents were killed by a gang member from the notorious Shie Hissaikai? Or, even better, what about those who lose their lives because of said Yakuza?" The flamboyant, yet also smart, Giorno Giovanna asked as all eyes were now turned to him.

"Huh? What are you talking about GioGio?" Yaoyorozu asked as Giorno gestured towards Ochako. "Well, maybe I should have kept my mouth shut, but I brought it up to see how All-Might would react. Many people don't have the same amount of faith in him as the media would have you believe. That's why I brought it up. If you want the whole story. Well…" Giorno said as Ochako sighed.

"That is something that has been echoing in the back of my mind," Ochako said as she turned to face All-Might. "Where were you?" Ochako said in a calm, yet shaky voice. Most of the class gasped at this revelation, aside from Izuku and Giorno. "Uraraka-san?" Tenya muttered as All-Might let out a sigh. "I am sorry I wasn't there to help your parents. But…as much as the media portrays me as this big-time 'Always knowing when danger is afoot' type of person. I'm just the average man with a strong quirk who uses it for good." All-Might said as he looked at Giorno.

"You do have some merit to your question, Mr. Giovanna. But like I just said. I'm only one man with one quirk that makes me stronger than I usually am. Now, let's get on with the class shall we." All-Might said before looking at the whole class with his usual smile. Giorno was satisfied with the answer. However, this led to more thinking on the hand of Ochako. 'Then why parade around what the media says when you know it isn't true…never mind that.' Ochako thought as All-Might began to explain what it was they were going to do today.

"Ok Zygotes! Today is the day that we will be doing: Combat Training!" All-Might said as Bakugo had a shit-eating smirk on his face, coupled with a more than excited look in his eyes. Izuku was a little worried for the most part. Giorno seemingly didn't care, and Ochako was a tiny bit confused but overall excited.

"Now, before everyone gets up and heads to training ground beta. No hero is without their hero costume. Everyone except for Giovanna, as he is already wearing his will come up and grab theirs." All-Might said as he pressed a button on a grey rectangular remote which caused several panels in the wall to open up. Each panel marked with student initials on them.

Ochako walked up to her costume case and took it down from the wall. She looked at Giorno, he had a casual smile on his face. Ochako smiled as well as she walked up to Giorno. "Hey, Giorno. Wanna walk and talk?" Ochako asked as Giorno nodded. "Sure, why not." The blonde said as they started to walk down the hallway.

They talked about small things; however, the main point of interest was of course what happened at lunch with Bakugo. "So…is he always like that Uraraka?" Giorno asked as Ochako let out an annoyed sigh. "According to Deku-kun, yea. He is." Ochako said as Giorno nodded. "Hm, perhaps he could have an inferiority complex. Maybe he's lashing out at the world because he feels like all the pressure is on him to carry his future to the dramatic lengths that he put out for himself." Giorno said critically.

"Never thought about it like that, I always saw him as a jerk. Not someone who would have overarching goals." Ochako said as Giorno simply laughed. "Well, I guess you're right. But everyone has a reason for acting the way they do. Perhaps that's his reason. Anyways, I have to cut through the male change room to get to the main room. So…" Giorno said as he turned to the men's change room and entered.

Ochako walked into the women's change room. She was the first one in there out of all the other girls, giving her time to get changed and get out first. However, the one thing that stopped her from all of that was an underlining thought. The same thought that made her question if All-Might was who he was really all cracked up to be. Sure, he admitted it himself. He was just your average guy with a super-powered strength-enhancing quirk.

It was true that he was just the everyday guy, he couldn't be in every corner of Japan all at once. But her main issue was that he allowed the media to make up fibs about him, how he knows all, and that he can defeat all. When clearly that isn't the case. He knows it too. Before Ochako could continue her train of thought, she felt a hand grab her shoulder.

She quickly turned around to see that it was Tsuyu. "Oh, hey Asui-san." Ochako said as Tsuyu smiled. "Please, just call me Tsu." Tsuyu requested as Ochako nodded. "Right, Sorry Tsu. But…why did you sneak up on me like that?" Ochako said confused as Tsuyu looked puzzled. "What do you mean? I said your name like three times?" Tsuyu said as Ochako now looked embarrassed.

"Sorry! I guess I was just so caught up in my train of thought I blocked out everyone!" Ochako said, bowing apologetically. "No need. But maybe standing in your underwear is something you shouldn't be doing. Besides, it gets rather chilly. Kero." Tsuyu said as Ochako stood up straight and nodded. "R-Right." The embarrassed brunette said as she opened up her costume case to reveal the outfit she asked for.

It was a black and pink jumpsuit. Two wrist weights, massive moon boots and a helmet with a visor on it. Granted the visor looked a little too big but she worked with it. As she put on her costume she realized something that annoyed her to no end. It was skin-tight. 'Ugh…seriously! This is going to be extremely uncomfortable.' Ochako thought as she let out an annoyed sigh.

"What's wrong Uraraka-san?" The pink-skinned Mina Ashido said as Ochako looked at Mina with an annoyed expression. "The costume is skin-tight and extremely uncomfortable, but It'll have to do for now." Ochako said as Mina giggled. "I know what you mean, this chest window is a bit too small for me so it pushes my boobs up a little higher than they're supposed to be," Mina said with a smirk on her face.

"Well, at least you don't have to worry about it being body-fitting," Ochako said as they both laughed. "Well, that doesn't matter to me in the slightest, come on, we should get out of here before All-Might wonders why we're taking so long. Besides, I know you want to get back to talking with GioGio." Mina said with a flirtatious tone to her voice as Ochako rolled her eyes. "No, it isn't like that, besides, I have my eyes on someone else. I just happen to know Giorno because we're neighbours in the apartment I live in." Ochako said as Mina smiled. "Okie Dokie," Mina said as they left the change room.

Once everyone was out and in front of All-Might, he laughed with pride in his voice. "Now that looks like a bunch of up and coming pro-heroes if I've ever seen it. Now come on everyone, gather around so that we can begin today's training exercise." All-Might said as Ochako met up with Giorno.

"Nice hero costume you have there Uraraka," Giorno said with a smirk on his face as Ochako sighed. "Yea, it's a little bit embarrassing because it's skin-tight, but hey, ya win some you lose some," Ochako said causing Giorno to smile slightly. "That's an optimistic attitude if I've ever seen one," Giorno said as Izuku came walking out of the dark hallway behind them. All-Might seemed like he was laughing a little at Izuku's costume, and Ochako knew why. It looked a lot like All-Might if he was green and a rabbit.

"Nice costume Deku-kun," Ochako said as Midoriya smiled. "Thanks, same to you. Like the colour scheme." Midoriya said as Ochako smiled at his response. "Although. Doesn't it make you a little uncomfortable? It looks a little tight doesn't it?" Midoriya mentioned as Giorno patted him on the back. "Good observation skills." Giorno said as Midoriya became flustered. "I didn't mean it like that!" Midoriya said as Giorno laughed it off.

Ochako was giggling a little as All-Might continued to explain how each team would be selected at random. Izuku Midoriya and Ochako Uraraka were paired up, and Giorno Giovanna was paired up with Momo Yaoyorozu.

The goal of the combat training was to test out one another's abilities and see how good they were at using them. Of course, none of them were all that experienced with them in terms of combat. The first battle would be Izuku Midoriya and Ochako Uraraka versus Katsuki Bakugo and Tenya Iida.

The plan was very simple, Izuku would go in and try and take care of Bakugo, distracting him and allowing Ochako to get ahead and deal with Tenya and the bomb. For the most part, it went perfectly, however, there was a slight hiccup with dealing with Tenya and the bomb. Tenya was faster than Ochako and she couldn't latch onto the bomb or catch up to him for the most part.

In the observation room, Giorno was starting to get a little worried about Izuku, as he had been getting wailed on with no remorse from Bakugo. It made him want to step in there and teach the ash-blond what for, alas, he didn't have to as once Izuku used his quirk to disrupt Bakugo's attack, it was all made clear. It was even spelled out on Bakugo's face. Izuku didn't use his quirk, because it could destroy buildings in an instant.

This gust of pure air-force was what allowed Ochako to use her gravity quirk to create an asteroid-like field of rubble and hurl it towards Tenya and safely secure the bomb. Giorno was rather amazed at this impressive amount of skill. However, when it came time to grade the fight. Yaoyorozu brought up how even though they lost; Tenya was the MVP because he stuck to his plan to the very end and that Ochako and Izuku only won by luck. Which was true. No one could deny that.

The next fight was Shoto Todoroki and Mezo Shoji versus Denki Kaminari and Mashiro Oijiro. The fight was almost over in an instant thanks to Shoto's ice quirk enveloping the whole building, freezing the two instantly. Then, it was Mina Ashido and Hanta Sero versus Momo Yaoyorozu and Giorno Giovanna.

Giorno and Momo were the heroes and Mina and Sero were the villains. Giorno had a few ideas in mind for the fight to come. Looking at Yaoyorozu he then thought of a brilliant plan. "Hey, Yaoyorozu. I have an idea." Giorno said as Momo looked at him. "What's the plan GioGio?" Momo asked as Giorno smiled. "I'll tell ya once we get to the building, just as long as you can trust me, I think we can easily with this fight," Giorno said as Momo arched her brow in confusion.

Once All-Might gave Momo and Giorno the all clear they spirited towards the building at full speed, once there Giorno stopped as Momo stood beside him. The building was at least three stories tall, and it looked like was run down. Which was most likely why it was being used. Giorno then sighed.

"Ok, are you ready to hear my plan?" Giorno said as Momo nodded. "Ok, so your quirk allows you to create anything that is none living, correct?" Giorno asked as Momo sighed. "If your thinking about making guns that's a no go," Momo said as Giorno smirked. "Who said anything about real guns. I was thinking more along the lines of BB guns." Giorno said as Momo arched her brow with more confusion than before.

"BB guns? I don't know, there not as dangerous but... Regardless no. I won't do it." Momo said as Giorno sighed. "Look, you haven't even let me finished. Hear me out before you deject what I'm trying to say." Giorno said Momo was getting a little uneasy with his unending pestering about making the BB guns. "Ok, what's your master plan," Momo said a little annoyed as Giorno smirked. "Ok, so, my stand 「Gold Experience」allows me to create living things out of inanimate objects. My plan was for you to make two bb gun pistols, then I'd use my 「Gold Experience」to turn them into fruit. Once we get in there we give them the fruit as a sort of peace offering/surrender. Once they take the fruit and it's in their hands, they will turn back into the guns and fire at them, disorienting them, that's when I can take them out and you can grab the bomb." Giorno said as Momo was a little taken aback by Giorno's plan.

"So…hold on, you said something about a stand?" Momo said confused. "Oh, I'll get into that later, now quick hurry up, we only have six minutes left," Giorno said as Momo nodded. She begrudgingly made the two BB guns as Giorno summoned his 「Gold Experience」to turn them into fruit after they were loaded and ready to fire on a given command.

Meanwhile, in the tower. Hanta and Mina were confused as to what was taking them so long. "Do you think they just chickened out?" Hanta asked confused as Mina shrugged. "I don't know. My guess is their planning something." Mina said. Just as she said that the door flung open. Giorno and Momo came in as Mina was readying to fight when Giorno spoke.

"Now hold on, don't attack. We came to give you a peace offering, we're surrendering." Giorno said, shocking the two. "Really, what's the peace offering?" Mina said as Giorno showed her an apple. "Fruit," Giorno said as he tossed her the apple. Mina caught it and smiled. "Well, that's mighty nice of you GioGio," Mina said as Hanta was a little skeptical as he looked at the fruit. Just then, Giorno smirked. Once he did the fruit started to transform into the BB guns. The moment that happened Hanta realized it, but by then it was too late as the guns started firing at them, disorienting them. "QUICK NOW! 「Gold Experience」!" Giorno shouted.

「Gold Experience」hit the disoriented duo in the chest, knocking them both back giving Momo the chance to ran over to the bomb and touch it. The plan was a success as Momo was able to touch the bomb.

"THE WINNER IS GIOVANNA AND YAOYOROZU!" All-Might said over the intercoms. Mina was annoyed but was also laughing her ass off. "That was very creative!" Hanta said in an annoyed fashion. "Well, I didn't want to beat you into a pulp. I'd rather save those types of fights when they are needed. I hope nothing got in your eyes." Giorno said as Mina waved it off. "Nah, it's fine. Let's get back to the observation room." Mina said as they all walked back together.

When they got back, All-Might first congratulated Giorno and Momo for the win, the proceeded to explain that it was reckless and to never do it again. Giorno nodded to himself and Momo to the criticism to heart.

Ochako found the fight to be rather anti-climatic but overall saw it as creative. However, when the MVP was brought up, that being Momo, that drew a few questions from not only Giorno but from Momo as well. "Why was I the MVP? Giorno created the plan." Momo said confused as then Giorno finally understood why. "Actually, after thinking about it, you are the MVP because you were the one who created the BB's in the first place. Without those, then it would be wise to assume that the plan would have backfired. That, and that was my only plan, to begin with." Giorno said as Momo nodded.

"Well, there we go. You took the words right out of my mouth Giovanna. Now, we can fit a few more battles before the bell rings. Let's keep this ball rolling!" All-Might said as two more battles took place. One between Fumikage Tokoyami and Eijirou Kirishima versus Tsuyu Asui and Yuga Aoyama. Then the one after that was Kyoka Jirou and Toru Hagakure versus Koji Koda and Rikido Sato.

The winner of the first battle was Tokoyami's team and in the second match, the winner was Sato's team. After those two matches were finished All-Might dismissed the class, dashing off in a puff of white smoke. Afterward, the bell rang. Ochako looked at Giorno who had a serious look now adorning his face. They both nodded to each other as Ochako went to go change into her school outfit.

Once done she walked outside with Giorno; sitting right at the front entrance was the limousine that was ordered to take them to Tartarus prison. "It's time. Are you ready?" Giorno asked as Ochako let out a stressed-out sigh. "More than ready…" Ochako said as Giorno smiled. "Right, let's go before Midoriya or that Iida guy comes out of nowhere and questions us," Giorno said as Ochako nodded. They both walked over to the Limousine as they were escorted inside.

Just as the car was driving off, the curious eye of Izuku Midoriya saw them drive off. "Not let me or Iida-kun see you two? What is going on…I know I shouldn't…but if it's something dangerous, then I have to know." Midoriya mumbled to himself. He then decided to chase after the limousine.

Things are only just beginning….
