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..."
