CHAPTER START---
Opening his eyes Law couldn't see anything in the room. It was entirely pitch black aside from the small streak of light seeping in beneath the door.
Opening a small Room just big enough to cover the building Law focuses on his bed.
He was currently completely naked with Ryuko -Pixie-Bob-, wrapped around him in her best impression of a Boa Constrictor.
SHAMBLES
He warps his phone into his hand and holds it down, preventing the light from illuminating his face as he peeks at the time, just a few minutes before 5 AM, the Pros would be waking up any minute now, but at the moment he could sense them all sleeping.
"Ryuko, I should get you back to your room now," he says, giving her a gentle shake to wake her up.
"Mmm!" She groans loudly and pulls the covers over her head, tightening her grip on him. "Five more minutes..."
Rolling his eyes Law runs his hand down her back reaching all the way down to her ass and gets a firm grip on her, causing her to immediately wake up, then pulls her into him. "You need to get to your room before Ragdoll wakes up."
"Ugh!" Ryuko groans and adjusts herself to lay her head across his chest, moving her hand down his muscled chest and to the grooves between his abs. "I'm so tired, I'm gonna be sleepy all day."
"Thanks," Law says, his quiet laugh feels like a rumbling under her head.
She sighs and opens her eyes, only seeing darkness, unable to even spot an outline of his face. "Let me get my clothes and I'll get going."
"Well...we've got a few minutes, and I can warp you there instantly, lets's try to enjoy the morning, how about it?"
She raises up a bit and leans forward, bridging the gap between them and carefully using her hands to find his face to kiss him.
Instead of the passion and almost desperation in her actions last night, now she felt much more relaxed and comfortable, as if this was nothing new for them.
She pulls back and takes a deep breath, "and just so you know, I'm really really happy that the muscle look on your body glove wasn't just for show...I like these," she runs a hand down his abs.
"Well, that's a side effect of my training...but glad you like it, now, let's get our morning started..."
---5 Pm, 12 Hours Later...
At the outdoor cooking area, Pixie-Bob is in full Hero Costume helping Mandalay move some boxes of food around.
Transferring food from the freezer to the tables, for Horizon to direct the others to cook once again.
Setting down another box she follows Mandalay into the kitchen, only to have Mandalay turn around and face her, looking at her with an annoyed look.
"Um, is something wrong?" Pixie-Bob asks, not quite sure what was happening, and hoping it wasn't what she thought it was.
"So you just disregarded everything I said yesterday?" Mandalay folds her arms below her chest and glares at her friend.
"What do you mean?"
Mandalay sighs, "Ragdoll woke up a little after 1 AM, and she decided to check on everyone. Care to guess where her Search Quirk found you?"
Pixie-Bob feels a pit in her stomach, "wait, I can explain!"
"Save it," Mandalay raises a hand to stop her. "I'm not going to yell at you, I decided to spend today thinking about a punishment for you, but...with some convincing from Tiger, I've decided to let it go this time..."
"Really?" Pixie-Bob gives her best puppy dog eyes.
"Ugh, yes, really. Stop looking at me like that..."
"You're the best!" Pixie-Bob wraps her friend in a tight hug, but is immediately pushed away.
"But you can't let this happen again, got it?"
Pixie-Bob nods.
"Normally you know we don't really care to bother you about stuff like this, most summer flings we can ignore, but this one has to stop. Technically it's not against the law. But UA trusted us to teach these young heroes, not to have sex with them.
It's a complete breach of their trust and ethics, not to mention if this gets out through one of those chatty teens it could reflect poorly on our entire team. Your reputation is our reputation, remember that."
"Right," Pixie-Bob looks like a kicked puppy. "Sorry."
Mandalay sighs and pulls her into a light hug, "I know you've only been thinking about finding a guy and starting a family, and I know Horizon makes you feel special and happy, that's why I'm not being too hard on you for giving in.
But this has to stop, what you do after the camp is none of our business, but until then, just try to stay away from him for the next 5 days, alright?"
"Yeah, I'll stay away from him," she promises.
"I knew I could count on you," Mandalay says. "Now let's go get the rest of this food out there..."
While Pixie-Bob was dealing with her team leader and best friend, Horizon was having troubles of his own.
With everyone else filing out of the training area he was completing his final attempt at using his new move.
With both hands cupped together in front of him, he was shivering and shaking.
Around him for ten meters under the setting sun, small bits of frost could be seen scattered about the rocky floor glinting in the light.
There were lines in the frost, however, perfectly straight lines all pointing directly toward Horizon.
He'd spent all day to achieve this, he barely had enough energy to get this far.
He didn't have enough control to prevent the frosting side effect.
And now his body was aching, freezing, and exhausted.
"Argh," Horizon cancels his Quirk and stumbles back, nearly falling over from exhaustion.
Taking a few shaky steps he makes his way to a rock rising out of the ground and takes a seat, trying desperately to catch his breath.
His visor was coated in sparse bits of frost, and looking at his body glove he could see the same thing.
But quickly he felt the heat returning to his body, his shivering slowed and ceased a minute later.
And then he finally looked at his numb hands, they seemed completely fine.
Until he turned them to look at the palms.
The palm of both gloves was completely burnt away, exposing the blistered skin beneath with 2nd-degree burns eating away at deeper bits of skin, like a horrendous and painful rash.
"Great, so I can't do anything right with this new move, can't even protect myself from it, at least I brought my backups...one more thing I'll need to thank Mei for."
Taking ten minutes to relax a bit Horizon sees Sero approaching him, likely to call him to dinner since everyone else was already gone.
Looking at his palms he focuses his energy and heals them, as if they were never hurt at all.
That was the last of his energy unless he wanted to blackout, at least until he rests a bit.
"A month or two and I'll have this ready for use," Horizon mutters before Sero comes into earshot.
"Trying to replace Todoroki?" Sero asks jokingly, looking at the frosty floor that's already melting away.
"No I can't make ice," Horizon says matter of factly.
Sero looks confused at that statement, "does the ice you just made know that?"
"It's complicated, don't worry about it. Is the dinner stuff ready?"
"Yeah, but we can handle this one, it's burgers!"
"Oh thank god," Horizon says. "I need a shower and a nap."
Sero sits beside Horizon, taking a moment to rest his tired body too.
"So, how's your progress going?"
"With what, Yui or training?"
"Yes," Horizon says.
Sero sighs, "honestly I don't know what I'm waiting for with Yui either, but it just makes me all nervous thinking about it."
"Ok, so you're still a pussy, nothing new there---"
"Hey!"
"What about training?"
Sero huffs and just tries to relax, "it's been going good. I can make a lot more tape now, and it's a lot stronger and stickier too, plus I think with some more practice I might be able to make a few types, pretty cool right."
"Yeah not bad, now you just need to optimize it with precision practice and equipment, and maybe learn how Eraser controls his scarf thing."
"Yeah, but that's what the next part of this summer is for, right? Technical and precise Quirk use."
"Pretty much, just focus on getting your Provisional License, then we can do a few Team-Ups."
Sero looks surprised at that, "seriously? I figured you'd be like 'I work alone,' or something like that."
"I do work alone, this isn't me asking you to form a team with me, it's just a Team-Up to show that I'm a capable leader. I changed my plan from being a great hero to being the absolute best.
All Might is strong, but Endeavor is strong and is a good leader, even with people he's never met before. If I can show everyone I'm a good leader and I'm super strong, then that #1 spot is already in my hand."
Sero nods a few times, tapping his chin and thinking it over, "and this way I'd get to be on your profile as Cellophane, that way I can start a personal profile and get a big boost in followers, right?"
"Exactly, just don't monetize it and you'll be fine."
"Nice, but uh, why me?"
"Unlike the other people in our class, you're useful and tolerable, that's a rare combination in my life."
"Uh, thanks?"
"You're welcome. But seriously, don't slack off on your training, if you're gonna embarrass me you can be damn sure we won't be teaming up. I don't have any time for people that will make me look bad."
Sero gulps nervously, "don't worry man I won't let you down!" he gives Horizon a wise smile and a thumbs up.
"I'm counting on you, Cellophane," Horizon reaches out to give him a fist bump, which Sero gladly accepts...
---3 Days Later...
Lying in his pitch-black room. Law is in bed with Ryuko laying on his chest, listening to his heartbeat.
Just like they'd spent every night since the very second, together, enjoying their summer fun.
"You should really try out the hot springs, atleast once. It'll definitely help you recover after training."
"Too risky, being out in the open like that, and I don't like getting the body glove wet."
"Well, tomorrow we've got something special planned, so nobody will be at the resort here. You can try it out then, no chance of anyone accidentally walking in on you."
"Really? What are you planning?"
"Well, since you guys only have two more nights here we figured a little friendly game would be nice. A Test of Courage!"
"What, like a dare?"
"No, you walk through the forest and each class takes turns scaring the other, we didn't involve you because you'd just sense all the tricks and ruin it."
Law can't help but laugh at that, "yeah that's true, it's really hard to surprise me, too bad you can't join me in the Hot Springs huh..."
Pixie-Bob immediately sits up, straddling his hips and planting both hands on his chest, still not seeing anything in the pitch-black room.
"Actually, we could go right now if you want, it won't be as good as directly after training, but I'd get to go in with you...if you want."
"In what world would I ever not want you in a Hot Springs with me?"
"Will I have to wear a blindfold?" she asks.
"Yeah, but don't worry, I'll keep you close to me..."

CHAPTER START---
After getting cleaned up from today's training everyone sat around in the dining area outside.
With this mountain training camp about to end the girls were currently having a discussion about how much progress they've all made All the girls from both classes were sitting at one long table, with multiple smaller conversations happening.
"So you can really control it now?" Uraraka asks, looking at Toru sitting across from here, as usually since Horizon arrived the girl is completely visible to them.
"Yeah!" Toru says, and she immediately begins to flicker in and out of view. "Oops, it still does that sometimes when I get excited, but I got back my heart today and I've been practicing a lot."
"The Stealth Hero: Invisible Girl!" Uraraka says, "people are gonna love you."
"Plus now you get to wear a costume instead of walking around naked right?" Jiro asks.
"Yeah, one of those skin-tight organic suits should work, a thinner version of what Mina uses! It's gonna be super cute...and pink!"
"Yay!" Mina yells out and pulls Toru into a tight hug, "we're totally gonna match!"
Both girls devolve into a fit of giggles.
"Oh, that reminds me," Uraraka says. "I need to go check out the Support Department when we get back to UA. I'm thinking of getting some super heavy stuff added to my costume."
"Like Tungsten weights?" Momo asks. "With you Quirk, they can be weightless until you throw them, but did your stamina increase enough to carry them around all day?"
Uraraka rubs the back of her neck sheepishly, "well, I'm not quite there yet, but we've still got another month before the License Exam so I've got some time. I pretty much focused on dealing with the nausea of my Quirk these past few weeks to improve my mobility."
"I'm sure you'll improve greatly before the exam, so your new equipment should provide a great boost to your combat power," Momo says.
As the girls continue to chatter for a few minutes, as the moon is high in the sky Pixie-Bob gathers everyone's attention.
Using her Quirk to raise a plateau of dirt under her for everyone to look up at her.
"Alright everyone, time for the Test Of Courage! Class 1B is up first as the scare team, so all of you come with me and everyone else waits here...and no peeking!"
"Finally!" Mina yells out, getting excited about the upcoming challenge as half the students begin following Pixie-Bob.
"Not you Ashido," Eraser says, drawing her eyes over to him, already standing beside him are Kaminari and Monoma, shoulders slumped. "Your nightly remedial classes aren't postponed because tonight is different, get inside, c'mon..."
"Awe, sorry Mina," Toru gives her a sympathetic pat on the back as the girl sulks and walks away.
After half of the students clear out the girls continue their chatter.
Meanwhile, at Horizon's table.
Sitting with Sero, Sato, Tokoyami, and Shoji, they were discussing only the most important and critical of topics.
"Sero, look," Horizon raises his hands and sighs. "What you just said, that war crime of an opinion to have...is fucking retarded."
"Hey! I think he's the best, I mean why else would he always be around," Sero says.
"He literally only looks...slightly, barely...just the slightest bit cool," Horizon says. "But you're telling me, in the year 2315, with over forty generations and thousands to pick from...you really think Charizard is the best pokemon. Seriously?"
"C'mon it's a good pick, right guys?" Sero turns to the other boys in the conversation, only getting weird looks from them. "Guys?"
"He isn't even a dragon type."
"He's been weak since generation 12."
Sero just gets beaten down by their words, "alright alright, fine, what's yours then?" he asks Horizon.
"Legendaries?" Horizon asks.
"Nope, everyone always pics Rayquaza," Sero says, and they all nod along.
"Ok, that's fair...probably---"
"HEY GLASS FACE!" Bakugo interrupts their essential conversations.
All the people present turn to see him stomping over to their table, being followed closely by Kirishima who was trying to stop him. In one hand was a tablet of some kind, and in the other was a baseball.
Horizon just sighs, expecting something annoying, "what do you want silver medal?"
"Mmmm, catch," Bakugo tosses him the baseball which he easily catches.
"What?"
"Throw it, as hard as you can, you're the only person here that's never done it, I wanna see how we stack up."
Horizon looks at the ball, then looks at Kirishima, hoping he can make some sense of this.
"Bakugo just got the top score again," Kirishima says. "Before you got to camp Yaomomo took the top spot, Midoriya got to second, but now Bakugo took back the top spot...but I kind of mentioned that not everyone was technically listed."
"And silver medal wants to see my score, great," Horizon lazily gets up. "What score am I gonna beat?"
"Check it," Kirishima turns the tablet to Horizon.
Bakugo- 815m
Momo- 780m
Izuku- 770m
"Isn't floaty supposed to be here?" Horizon asks.
"On the official UA list, yeah, but this is just for friendly competition, can't really get better than infinity," Kirishima says.
Horizon shrugs, "so the score to beat is 815 meters, I didn't even do much training today so I don't even need to warp it."
"What? You think I can't catch up to you if you go all out?" Bakugo asks, words carried with a deep growl.
"Well, yeah, I'm already miles ahead of you. I improve faster than you, and I train harder than you. Get used to that silver medal," Horizon says as he takes a few steps away with the baseball.
'And why the hell would I tell you my exact maximum range,' he thinks to himself while winding up his pitch.
ROOM!
He forms a small room only 5 meters wide.
BOOSTER SHOT!
He focuses some of his energy on his body to boost his pitch.
Everyone looks on as he winds up his pitch, not expecting him to simply throw it instead of warping it away.
BOOM!
The ball shatters the sound barrier as it rockets through the cool night air.
Jiro flinches and grabs her ears, not expecting the sudden sonic boom so close to her.
As it disappears into the night people begin muttering, making their best guesses at exactly how far it would go.
BEEP!
The tablet goes off, indicating the ball stopped moving.
"Wow," Kirishima says, looking at it. "1170 meters...damn man."
Horizon just shrugs, barely feeling the energy use from that pitch, "figured I'd keep it reasonable. Plus I'm trying to take it easy tonight."
Bakugo just snatches the tablet from Kirishima and stomps off, and a moment later Horizon warps the ball back to them.
"Thanks man," Kirishima picks up the ball and rushes off after Bakugo.
"So you really weren't kidding when you said you were muscling up huh," Sato says as Horizon returns to the table.
"Oh yeah, in a lot of cases it's more economical and effective to just punch someone in the face rather than using any of my other techniques, figured it's an easy way to be more economical with my fighting."
"Is that why you look like a mini All Might?" Asui asks from behind Horizon, at the table with all the girls. "You really looked like him at the pool...with all the muscles I mean."
Horizon turns back to look at her over his shoulder, "yeah, like what you see Froppy?"
Her expression remains completely flat, unlike Momo who frowns at that reply, and Jiro who just keeps her head down. "Yeah, you look good, but you get ugly when you start talking, still a total jerk. Not my type."
"I'll get over it," Horizon says, turning back to everyone. "But yeah, figured there is a lot of merit in taking the All Might approach in certain situations. But the difference is I won't hit the same peak power as him, and even if I do my body won't be there for any other 15 years.
Plus I'll fight with a brain unlike him. The meathead tactics of 'just punch them harder' is really dumb."
"But it always works," Sato says. "All Might has never lost, so how dumb can it be?"
"Bad habits can get you good results, but that doesn't make them good habits. If you only focus on the outcome you'll never truly reach your full potential. It's like if you lift weights with bad form. Yeah you'll move the weights, but eventually, something will go wrong, bad practice with good results is still bad practice."
"Huh, I guess I never thought about it like that," Sato says. "So how much do you lift now anyway?"
"I bench about 2500lbs," Horizon says, as if it were normal for someone without a Strength Enhancer Quirk. "I don't think I can get much higher than that right now, but obviously it gets a lot better when I start using my Quirk."
"That's without your Quirk?" Sero visibly flinches at the idea of lifting that much weight, almost like lifting a 4-door car. "That's insane."
"I get that a lot..."
A few minutes later Pixie-Bob returns to collect the other students, leaving Mandalay and the others to organize the route for the Test of Courage.
"Alright 1A, let's get this started!"
As everyone gets up and gathers around Horizon turns and begins walking toward the main building, "good luck," he says offhandedly.
"You aren't coming?" Sero asks, causing everyone to look at them.
"Haunted house stuff doesn't really work on me, I can sense them, remember?"
"Oh, right."
"Yeah, plus we've only got tomorrow night here then we head out, I wanna enjoy the Hot Springs," Horizon shrugs.
"Wait!" Jiro says, obviously worried, already trying to hide behind Momo. Admittedly she doesn't do well with anything spooky or horror related. "But if you leave then one of us has to go solo, since that means our class is missing three people."
Seeing the girl obviously afraid Horizon just sighs, not in the mood to be dragged into this just so someone doesn't have to go solo.
"You're a hero, you'll have to deal with villains, and you've already fought some of them before. You'll be fine with some haunted house game," he tells her. "Being afraid is fine, letting it control you is inexcusable, you can overcome this."
"Oh...Thanks," Jiro nervously looks down at the ground as Momo gives her hand a reassuring squeeze.
"Fear not madam," Aoyama speaks up, "I shall be the one to go alone, my dazzling style will keep me safe in the night."
"Good luck with that frenchie," Horizon says as everyone else gives Aoyama an exasperated look.
"Well now that everyone is ready, let's get moving," Pixie-Bob waves for them all to follow her. "And be sure to enjoy the Hot Springs Horizon, we've only got two more nights here so let's all make the most of them..."
Horizon can't help but smile at that as everyone begins walking away, knowing exactly what she meant...
