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...
