CHAPTER START---
"Here he comes, everyone get ready, he's super duper strong," Nejire says as she points both her palms at Horizon, preparing to blast him with energy.
Beside her Mirio still has his bright smile on, staring across at Horizon who was clearly preparing to strike, "don't worry guys, just try not to overdo it, we don't want to hurt him or damage the facilities after all, we're still the seniors here so let's set an example."
"I don't think he sees it that way," Amajiki looks at the observation area, seeing everyone staring at them, winces, then just takes his hands out of his pockets. "Let's get this over with so I can go home..."
"Here I come!" Horizon yells from across the room, and they all prepare to counterattack.
With their years of training, they'd never dealt with someone who can warp, but with Mirio's fighting style, it was the next best thing.
They prepare to strike on either side of them, with Amajiki turning the toes on his left foot into octopus tentacles, ready to stretch out and grapple behind them.
SHAMBLES!
To everyone's surprise, Horizon appears directly in front of them.
'He didn't swap with anything!' the big three immediately notice, unaware of the intricacies of his Quirk.
Hado and Amajiki react immediately sending a wave of spiral energy and a handful of octopus tentacles, previously Amajiki's fingers, at Horizon.
But Mirio keeps his hands at his side, a wide smile on his face as his clothes begins falling through him, but he stays standing in place.
His fist rockets directly toward Mirio's gut.
"Ugh!" Mirio winces before the fist even connects, his expression twisting into pain and agony for just a split second.
BOOSTER SHOT!
"Argh!" Horizon's fist digs into his gut, taking him off his feet and sending him rocketing into the far wall. They hear the echoes of a painful sound as the concrete cracks behind him.
SHAMBLES!
Horizon warps back to his original spot, barely avoiding Amajiki and Nejire's attacks, because even with how surprised they were, their years of training meant the attacks followed through.
"Mirio!" Amajiki yells out as he looks back, seeing his friend crumpled to the floor completely unconscious. "This isn't funny Mirio, get up!"
"I don't think this is a joke Amajiki," Nejire's voice was suddenly much more serious as she looks away from her unconscious friend, back to Horizon. "So uh...do you have a plan?"
"Go home, but I'm stuck here with all these people watching me," Amajiki mutters as both his arms transform into tentacles from the shoulders outward, 8 tentacles on each side.
"Wow, that's so cool!" Deku yells out, furiously taking notes on the entire fight, quickly sketching Amajiki's tentacles.
Then all their eyes open in wonder as thick and clearly reinforced lobster shell begins forming on the tentacles like armor.
His head grows two cow horns as his legs become bovine, and most of his head and face is covered in a helmet of lobster shell he grows before their eyes.
"Chimera Kraken!" Amajiki yells out, and most of the room stares in wonder.
"That's pretty cool," Horizon says, genuinely impressed. "Just missing some wings."
"The only bird I ate today was chicken, and flying with those wings is always awkward, sorry, can you please not look at me..."
"Don't worry Suneater, you'll get over the stage fright one day!" Nejire tries to cheer him up.
Amajiki glances over at her, and she sees his eyes widen in shock.
"Nejire!" his tentacles shoot forward, intending to move around her to attack Horizon who suddenly appeared behind her.
"You got too comfortable---"
SHAMBLES!
Horizon and Nejire appear back across the room, "---this is still a fight."
He pokes her in the stomach, angling his finger upward and pushing the air out of her lungs.
"Gah!" as she desperately tries to take a breath, his fingers wrap around her neck, strangling her as he holds her a foot above the ground.
"Hard to muster up energy when you're suffocating huh," he says as she begins to panic, flailing in his grasp.
Nejire desperately kicks out, hitting him in the chest a few time but he doesn't even react, fingers digging at his grip but feeling as if she had to claw against steel.
"Let her go!" Amajiki bounds across the entire gym, his bovine legs transformed into rabbit legs before he takes one massive jump.
The tentacles on his left arm come together at the end and merge into a solid ball of flesh which then becomes heavily armored like an organic wrecking ball.
Horizon doesn't even more his feet, just shifts his arm to put Nejire between him and the attack.
"Damn it!" Amajiki barely redirects the attack, smashing the concrete floor beside Horizon.
SHAMBLES!
Horizon appears beside him as he lands, and before Amajiki can react.
BOOSTER SHOT!
The sound of armor breaking off and clattering across the floor is heard as his fist knocks Amajiki out.
Looking at the other unconscious opponent he glances at Nejire who was now turning purple and going limp in his grasp, and just drops her.
"GAH!" she takes a greedy breath, trying to sit up but is forced to lie down and recover.
"Quit being so dramatic."
She opens her eyes to see Horizon standing above her, thoroughly unimpressed. "Ok, good fight, I'm just going to lay here for a minute or two...too strong."
Horizon just walks over to Tamaki and taps him with his foot, healing him and waking him up, then does the same to Mirio.
"Let's get back to the others, then you can all leave so I can get back to training," he says before Mirio can even speak.
The moment they're all back in the observation area, the questions begin flying, but Sero was the only one willing to ask Horizon what they all wanted to know.
"Dude how'd you hit Togata, does your Quirk let you punch ghosts?" Sero asks Horizon.
"Hand of God works in mysterious ways, Mystery Class after all," Horizon shrugs.
"Honestly I'd like to know too," Mirio says. "Everything just felt tingly for a second, then the next thing I know I'm waking up on the floor, super weird."
"Oooh oooh!" Nejire was excitedly waving her hands to get his attention. "Maybe Horizon did that thing with his sword but with his fist instead. Since his slashes could cut you then his punches could hit you."
"But Amputate doesn't hurt or move what it affects," Momo says. "This would have to be something new, maybe he was distorting space where he hit you."
"Would that even work?" Deku asks, then immediately takes a step back, but luckily Horizon doesn't even look his way.
"It would," Horizon says. "But that's not what I did, that's a lot of effort for these three..."
Nejire gives a forced smile and pats Mirio's arm, "I promise he was actually being nice during your fight atleast."
"That's enough with the theories," Eraser says. "Horizon is just being mysterious for no reason, he tased Mirio."
"Ugh," Horizon grumbles a bit. "You know half the fun of my Quirk is nobody knows how it works, thanks for ruining that..."
"Anytime," Eraser says, now seeing everyone looking at him to explain. "When he warped to Mirio, it was hard even for me to notice such small changes, but his foot was a lot closer to Mirio's. He had a single current jump from his foot to Mirio's."
"I took advantage of the fact that he was standing on the floor, which meant atleast the skin at the bottom of his feet was solid. Guaranteed path for the current to zap him, and since it would be a chain reaction and mix with his own bioelectricity---"
"---My Quirk would think its natural and paralyze me," Mirio facepalms. "That's why my body got all tense before you hit me, wow, that's pretty smart!"
"I know," Horizon says. "But, that's just a measure I had to take since I couldn't use my sword. Most of my offensive measures are done through Scalpel."
"Scalpel?" Nejire asks.
"His sword," Momo says. "So since he didn't have it available during this fight he improvised that Quickly, most impressive."
"Alright alright, enough," Eraser rolls his eyes. "His ego is already big enough, now aside from Horizon's team everyone needs to go get changed and head back to class."
"Finally, thank you," Horizon didn't bother hiding how happy he was to have everyone finally out of his hair.
As Eraser is leading the others out of the facility, Sero and Shinso begin walking back down to the combat area, enjoying the short break they had, but one other stayed back just a moment to speak to Horizon.
"Need something?" he asks Momo, seeing her somewhat anxious to speak to him.
"Yes actually, I start training with mister Snipe later this afternoon, would you mind helping me sometimes when I get the hang of...ranged weapons."
"Guns, you can just say guns."
"It just doesn't feel very right since I'm trying to be a hero after all. But you would have the most experience fighting against...guns, so I---"
"Yes, I'll come to take a look sometime, it'll be useful training for me too."
"What kind of training could that possibly be for you?"
"Precision. Before UA I wouldn't have many direct confrontations, now I find myself dealing with gunfire a lot, and practice stopping bullets is always useful. I've gotten mostly lucky so far that no high-caliber rounds have been shot at me. They'd be a bit more annoying to stop."
"I...see," Momo gives a concerned look. "Well, I'm glad this can work out for both of us."
"Good, now I need to get back to training these idiots, have fun taking notes in class..."
"R---" he warps away before she can respond. "Alright, now I need to work hard not to embarrass myself in front of him. Oh Momo, why didn't you wait a few weeks before telling him about this."
