Chapter 24 - Season 2 Chapter 14: Flame of determination !

Izuku was sent flying through the doors of the temple causing Torino to spit out his Teriyaki

Torino: Kid!!!! Woah did he do a number on you

Batman walked to Izuku and smiled

Batman: welcome to your training Izuku Midoriya

Natsu: ...

Rokuro: ...

They gave Izuku a moment of silence and a salute of respect 

...

Week 1 :

Batman and Izuku were walking up the mountain fog surrounding the entire area and the air becoming harder and harder to breathe in 

Izuku thoughts: Oh man I'm so exhausted my legs are starting to buckle and I'm getting dizzy too 

Batman finally stops and so does Izuku a few feet behind. Batman turned to face Izuku with the density of the air not bothering him in the slightest 

Batman: Now find your way back to the temple at the foot of the mountain this time I won't wait for you to get there before morning and no using your quirk understood 

Batman asked with a glare shocking Izuku 

Rokuro/Natsu: Scary !!

Izuku's thoughts: That's the test?

Turning around and looking at the way they came Izuku soon realised the reason why they came down 

Izuku thoughts: I get it now. Because of the fog he thinks I might get lost, all I have to do is get back by morning no problem not with my dragon slayer nose I've already memorised Batman and Gran Torinos sent 

Izuku turned to see Batman was already gone 

Natsu: AHH!!! Where did he go!!!

Rokuro: Natsu ! Izuku needs to focus 

Izuku: I got no time to lose

Izuku began running back when he tripped over a rope making him nearly fall over before regaining balance. He turned to look at the rope with slight fear realising what it mean his eyes wandered around his surroundings when something faster than he could see hit him in the face causing some blood to escape his lips and some scratches to appear on his face 

Izuku thoughts: What the !! AAAH!!!!

He tumbled back before falling into a pit covered by a disguised sheet. 

Natsu/Rokuro: IZUKU!!!

Izuku groaned in pain and looked up to see what he fell in 

Izuku thoughts: A tiger pit 

Izukus breathing was faster and cold air began escaping his mouth

Izuku thoughts: Of course! There are traps all over the mountain that's why this is a test 

Izuku crawled forward before feeling his hand press against another rope he jumped back in fear " oh no!" Izuku jumped to the side and stood up searching for any incoming objectiles when a bark of wood slammed into his back knocking him over 

Izuku got off his back and stood cautious and afraid of the traps unable to catch his breathe 

Rokuro: Izuku you okay!!

Natsu: I'm gonna kill that bat guy!!! Let me at him!!

Izuku thoughts: Crap crap crap !! If I keep walking into these traps I'll never make it down the mountain by morning!... Not to mention besides the traps the air here is, the air is thin on this side of the mountain !!! Way too thin for me to breathe 

He put his hand on his chest" it's no wonder I feel so dizzy. I can't breathe " Ignoring his pain Izuku began sprinting forward" I hope I can make it! I might pass out ...No I have to make it " Izuku stopped running and slowed down his breathing 

Izuku thoughts: control your breathing...Then sniff out all of those traps 

Izuku stopped breathing fast and closed his mouth and eyes relaxing his pace and focusing everything he had into his nose the sent of each trap making its way to him

Like ghosts as they brushed against his nose finally picking up the sent he gasped 

Izuku: I got it !!

Izuku started sprinting forward. Running over several ropes he dodged each and every incoming trap. Dozens more obstacles followed but each he avoided with darts, batarangs, arrows and spears being thrown at him from every direction and tree barks swinging in from all sides above him Izuku pushed past each managing to dodge them all 

Izuku thoughts: Hah yes I've got it these traps were set by Batman my idol which means I can dodge each and everyone with my heightened senses and analysis !!

Rokuro: He's doing it...He's really doing it !!!!

Natsu: Hahaha this is the strength of a dragon !!!!!

Suddenly a bamboo stick tied to the ground-launched up hitting Izuku in his gut and then smacking him into the ground 

Izuku got up ignoring his pain" But I guess" three more bamboo sticks shot up to hit him but he dodged the three as they bounced up and down from the recoil of hitting the ground" that doesn't solve all my problems because I'm still not skilled enough to dodge every single one of them".

Using the trees as support Izuku continued moving forward 

" I'll push past my limit for my family and my dreams !!!!" 

In the temple:

Batman and Torino were outside waiting for Izuku 

Torino: He remind you of anyone Bruce? 

Batman: ...

Torino: chuckle I guess you would never admit it but you see yourself quite a bit in that boy that's why you've had your eyes out for him even before he met All Might the son of one of your only friends

Batman: he'd be proud of the man Izuku's becoming

Torino: Indeed he would be

The two looked back to see Izuku covered in scratches, dirt and with blood coming down his lip and forehead leaning on the wall huffing and puffing " I...made it...back down" he said before falling down to his knees" 

With Uraraka: 

Uraraka: Right, left, right, left!

Gunhead: Don't just go through the motion picture your focusing on each individual punch the most important thing is your basic physical strength

He said making a girl pose 

Everyone: Yes sir 

Uraraka thoughts: look at how cute that pose is 

With Kirishima: 

Fourth-Kind slammed his cup of green tea on his desk and shouted at Kirishima and Tetsutetsu

Fourth-Kind: This is lukewarm !! Can't you two dense idiots make a decent cup of tea? We want to impress clients who visit our agency!

He punched both their heads making sparks come out from their quirks " Is this the kind of crap you would serve them to!!?". They both then bowed" Sorry Mr Fourth Kind sir " they said at the same time 

Fourth Kind: Jeez, those powers of yours sure make it satisfying to hit you 

He said turning around with swollen hands 

Both: Right!!

Tetsu: thank you, sir 

With Ruby, Blake and Yang:

Yang ran at the Bunny heroine Miruko with her hair ablaze 

Only to have Miruko knee her in the gut and send her flying as Ruby charged in surrounded by Rose petals before Miruko kicked her twice in the gut and sent her into Yang

The three girls lay beside each other infront of Miruko

Miruko: Come on girls a hero needs to be strong so show me what you got !!!

She smirked when they heard a knock on the door and turned to see the final student interning with Miruko 

??: umm I apologise for being late 

Miruko: Oh you'll be sorry alright now hurry up and get changed we got training to do...Wiess Schnee

The girl with white hair bowed and rushed away quickly to get changed

With Momo:

Uwabami was having a photo shoot with Momo and Kendo on stand by 

Momo: After this photoshoot she's scheduled to be a guest on a radio show during which she has a quick magazine interview 

Kendo: heh we're more like her entourage, not her interns 

Momo shut her notebook" this is part of what it takes to be a hero, it's unavoidable in the age we live in. I'm sure there's some important lesson we're missing here...right ?...Maybe?". They both sweat dropped at Uwabami posing. 

Kendo's thoughts: Poor girl's deep in denial 

With Izuku: 

Izuku and Batman were in an open layout with Gran Torino on stand by

Izuku: Umm why are we here sir?

Batman: Here I and you will spar four times every day after your exercises with Torino and myself. The training you will undergo will strengthen your body, enhance your senses and reflexes, and expand your knowledge and skills with gadgets and your own body. You will learn how to balance the power in you and master it. And you will learn that not everything can be won with a quirk alone

Gran Torino: We will teach you what it would take a normal person 2 years to learn within the span of 3 weeks it will be hell on earth so are you ready kid?

Rokuro: Izuku think this through we can't be rash 

Natsu: Oh come on let's fight already !!!

Rokuro: Natsu !! This is an impo-

Izuku's thoughts: Natsu is right 

Rokuro/Natsu: What/I am?

Izuku's thoughts: I can't afford to waste time I have to get stronger, I have to work harder than anyone else so 

Izuku bowed " I'm ready please teach me " 

Torino smiled and Batman remained expressionless 

Izuku: But umm if I may you see three weeks what about the fourth week? 

Torino: That will be a surprise if you manage to succeed in your training 

Izuku looked down thoughtfully before looking up with determination 

" and like that, the 1 month of pure absolute unadulterated hell began"

Week 1: ( Day 1 was when he met Torino and Batman)

Day 2: 

Izuku was made to carry two large boulders and run up the mountain seven times without rest. After nearly collapsing Batman took him with him to teach him everything about chemistry, hacking, advanced physics, geometry, weaponry and basic engineering each subject was crammed into Izukus's head and tests were made for him to pass in order to further advance his knowledge. Later Batman brought Izuku into the open layout where they spared after letting Izuku have a water break the two engaged in a no-quirk standoff. 

Batman bested Izuku before the match even began and the two did it four more times but something different happened on the fourth time Izuku countered one of Batman's attacks surprising his teachers.

Day 3:

Izuku was doing a set of 100 hundred pushups, 100 hundred squats and 100 pull-ups using a tree over the waterfall near bye under the eyes of Gran Torino. Next Izuku was taken to a spot filled with trees that blew with the wind and had his eyes covered as Gran Torino attacked him, he had to rely on all his senses to counter obviously Izuku failed spectacularly. Batman later took Izuku to a table filled with different chemicals and tasked him to create an antidote for a poison he had four hours to succeed but he failed and made the wrong antidote. Batman also took Izuku to train to throw batarangs at a bullseye but non even hit the wheel 

Batman finally finished Izukus day by sparing with him and Izuku was slowly gaining more ground in that area 

Day 4:

Batman brought Izuku several books which he needed to study since he wanted Izuku to repair a damaged engine by the end of the week and create a freeze ray of his own using the chemicals and items provided. Torino then made Izuku do several laps up and down the mountain while carrying a stack of books over his head and not letting any of them drop but he dropped each one. Batman then took Izuku to teach him everything about hacking and how to interrogate using the weak spots of the human body and mind. 

Batman then took Izuku to spar and Izuku managed to stay standing for three minutes a recorded time for him finally he was sent off to bed to study seven languages Arabic, English, Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish, French and Russian 

Day 5: 

Izuku was taught the value of eating and how he could gain more strength by digesting more food and burning off all the calories using a treadmill Batman put him on attaching heart rate monitors onto Izuku who had to sprint continuously for three hours. Izuku was then given an exam by Batman written in the seven languages he had to study. Batman then took Izuku to do a test in hacking he needed to hack into a bomb with a passcode using videos of batman and Torino writing in the code but he failed. 

Izuku was also being taught how to throw a Batarang again and use the environment to his surroundings to sneak up on Torino but he failed and got caught. Then he and Batman sparred this time Izuku lasted several minutes longer 

Day 6: 

Batman educated Izuku in all the different forms of martial arts and how each was useful then he taught Izuku about the pressure points in the human body and told him to study on the different weapons he could use. 

Batman then made Izuku hit a rock over fire every day as punishment for not being able to succeed with his training he had to break it. Torino brought Izuku to chase him around the mountain for several hours but Izuku never managed to catch him as Batman finally came for their sparing and unlike the past few days Izuku was losing confidence in himself and lost much faster than before 

Day 7: 

Batman brought Izuku the tests he had to study for but Izuku failed each and so Torino beat him up in their sparing match.

Torino looked at Izuku who was lying on the ground holding his stomach after vomiting a bit 

Torino: sigh go to your room kid we'll try again tomorrow 

Izuku nodded and got up without facing him as Batman walked to Torino from behind 

Torino: He's losing himself. With his failure he's begun to doubt himself and whether or not he deserves to be a hero 

Batman: let me talk to him 

Torino nodded 

With Izuku:

PUNCH!!!

PUNCH!!!

PUNCH!!!

PUNCH!!!

Rokuro: Izuku

PUNCH!!!

Rokuro: Stop!!

Natsu: Please Izuku you're hurting yourself for no reason !!!

Izuku was punching the rock over the fire with his fists blooded and blood covering the top of the rock

Izuku's thoughts: I have to break this rock! I have to prove myself, I have to be stronger !! 

he continued punching it when

Batman: Izuku

Izuku looked up in shock to see Batman standing a few feet away from him

Izuku: I can see you

Batman began walking toward him " darkness is a powerful ally...If you know how to befriend it" Batman stopped infront of him

Batman: You won't break the rock tonight, or tomorrow, or the next day or ever

Izuku looked down upset" you said to break the rock"

Batman: I said to try to break the rock. I know what happened to you, to your father, I've always known. Now you're letting the abyss drown you in grief and regret making you feel like you're not good enough to become a hero. But the war will always go on unending like this rock and even if you break this rock there will be pebbles, break the pebbles there will be sand and there will always be evil. You can't change that no matter how much you train...I'll tell you something my teacher taught me 

Batman placed his hand on Izukus's shoulder 

Batman: It will hurt by pain strengthens us, it will burn but fire cleanses the soul...Never let the darkness cloud your mind and never fall into the abyss from wence evil lurks, I believe in you and I know you can do it so no matter what never doubt yourself understood?

Izuku nodded " yes sir" Batman nodded and walked away 

Natsu: So now what?

Izuku thoughts: now we get better!

Rokuro: Woo this is gonna be a hell of a ride!

Week 2/3:

Izuku began studying at night and practising everything he learnt even after his training had been done. Izuku was able to run up the mountain for more than seven laps and even passed the tests Batman gave him. 

In the sparing Batman and Izuku went longer than before and Izuku managed to get some blows in surprising his teachers as Gran Torino moved Izuku to the blind exercise Izuku managed to dodge many of the pro heroes' blows although he got his once or twice he managed to counter several times. Izuku even managed to make the antidote for the practice poison and built the freeze ray he was tasked to build. So Batman moved to advanced physics, chemistry and engineering. Izuku even managed to surpass Torinos expectations again by doing more reps than told and even keeping the books balanced on his head while he and Batman did Karate and threw batarangs Izuku quickly got a hold of each and every skill he was taught including martial arts which he learnt several forms of fighting and got bullseye for each Batarang he threw.

Batman and Torino finally gave Izuku the end of the week tests which he passed with flying colours succeeding in getting 99% on the language exam and restarting the faulty car engine.

And on the last few days of week 3's training Batman spent time with Izuku helping him build his very own motorcycle from scratch 

Thursday week 3:

Izuku finished up studying Egyptian papyrus on his bed while shirtless the room he was staying in was small but comfortable 

Rokuro: Oh man that was so much work!!

Natsu: Right and Izuku is so much stronger now hey Izuku fight me !!!!!

Izuku: chuckle Natsu do you always think about fighting?

Natsu: and what's that supposed to mean?

Rokuro: It means you're an idiot 

Natsu: What!!!

The two began fighting again leaving Izuku chuckling when the door of his room was suddenly opened and he instantly threw a Batarang at the perpetrator 

Izuku: Huh?

Gran Torino: nice to see your reflexes are sharp kid 

Izuku: Gran Torino sir!

The man smiled and walked up to him 

Torino: Yep it's me now put on your costume boy we're moving on to phase two

Izuku/Rokuro/Natsu: Phase two ?

Meanwhile at the Midoriya house:

Rimuri: Mum what's wrong? 

Inko: Oh nothing sweetie it's just Aizawa is gonna be here soon and I don't know if I look good

She walked to the door and slowly opened it to see Aizawa a blush coming onto her cheeks as he stood there frozen in awe

Aizawa: I-I-I-I-Inko y-you l-l-l-look g-great 

Aizawa thoughts: Great !!! She looks mesmerising dumbass!!!!

Inko bowed her head with a blush " th-th-thank you" Aizawa began having a heart, panic and stress attack his face blowing up bright pink 

Aizawa thoughts: She's too beautiful and cute !!! Why did I think I could do this !!!?

He gulped and offered his hand 

Aizawa: w-w-w-w-well a-a-a-are y-you r-r-r-ready ? 

Inko nodded and took his hand as they both walked away leaving the three girls behind shocked
