Melascula's P.O.V.
It's been two days since the Sludge Villain incident and me rejecting All Might's offer to receive his quirk. So then why- "AM I PULLING A DAMN FRIDGE?!?!"
No Ones P.O.V.
"Hey, hey, hey! This fridge is quite the comfy seat!" She faceplanted into the sand "It'd be even better if it were to move a little." He says 'encouragingly' (mockingly) to Melascula who is coughing and muttering something about 'Darn sand got in my mouth...'
"Give me a break... All Might, you're at least 250 pounds- "255 actually!" -and I'm not even counting the fridge I have to pull... Speaking of that, why am I pulling a fridge across the beach? I'm not gonna take your quirk..."
"Hah! No this isn't for my Quirk you've already told me your answer... Instead this is because of what you told me afterward about you being the one to defeat the Sludge Villain first." He says while jumping of the fridge and walking up to her seated form on the ground.
"You told me you had a hard time controlling your Power and that you only meant to use a small bit of it to defeat the Villain but instead ended up blowing him to pieces. So I plan to help you train to control that Power."
"But then shouldn't we be training my Quirk instead? Why train my body when control of my power is so crucial?" She questions now sitting straight up she gets into her thinking pose with her arms crossed and her head slightly tilted to the side she stares at all might waiting for a response.
"Ha ha ha! While true it is important to train you in using your Quirk properly we also need to train your body. You've grown comfortable being protected by your Quirk... But back there when the Sludge Villain caught you off guard you weren't able to do anything. If someone were to break through your defenses... With your untrained body... on the field you'd be dead." He finishes his speech, outstretching his hand to lift her up.
With the sudden shift from light hearted to serious it left Melascula momentarily stunned but she quickly composed herself and answered. "So that's why I'm training my body..." Melascula says grabbing All Might's hand as he lifts her to her feet
"YES! But that's not all!" He says as he flashes his signature smile and thumbs up. He then walks back over to the fridge and taps it with a fist. "I did some research on this beach yesterday... Apparently this one section has been like this for years."
"Yeah, i read an article about is. The strong currents make lots of stuff drift ashore. Also people tend to dump there trash here, so it's been like this for a while." All Might then began pressing on the fridge
"The young Heroes of today, all care about fame and the showy stuff... Originally, being a Hero meant doing volunteer work! Even when people called it boring... Even if it was unglamorous! You can't waver from those roots."
"You will restore the horizon for this whole section... AND BRING BACK THE VIEW OF THE OCEAN!"
"That is your first step TO BECOMING A HERO!"
He finishes his speech and crushes the Fridge to bits and pieces and with his ear to ear smile he asks...
"You ready..?"
"YES SIR!"
Melascula's P.O.V.
And so began my ten hellish months of training... I had to pull lockers, carry tires and even try to carry All Might.... I was beginning to use muscles I didn't even know I had... "Put your back into it!" "Run faster! Ten months is right around the corner!"
He'd shout words to motivate me to do better and by the end of the first week he had even made me a meal plan to help me gain muscle. He even gave me a three phase plan! He made me do pushups, lift weights and even push a truck... He's insane!
This continued every day. Wake up, go to school half dead, train, eat a lot of food made by mom, sleep and repeat. And by the Sixth month I had been able to lift All Might and carry him across the beach.
And so it continued...
No Ones P.O.V.
And then, it was 6 a.m. 1 Month before the Entrance Exam. We see an exhausted Melascula lying down on the side walk next to the beach. Breathing heavily, with Small Might sitting next to her holding out a bottle of water. "Well done. You even cleaned outside where I told you too. There isn't a spec of trash left, and it's all because of your hard work! Not to mention you finished it a month early of the Entrance Exam!"
"You may not be inheriting my quirk... But, I want you to know how proud I am to have a student like you." All Might says as he pulls out a notebook from his bag. He then tears a page out and writes something down. "Meet me here at this address on Friday after school. It's time we start the real good stuff..."
"Quirk Training!" Melascula says as she gets up from her lying down position and eagerly grabs the page. "Yep, now get back home and take a rest kid. You earned it." And with that begun Melascula's final month before the U.A. Entrance Exam.
