12 Hero suit is fire
"To control your emotions, you have to think of them as tools, tools you use for yourself, the human body tends to react to emotions without the person knowing, when people are mad they clench their fist, when they're happy they smile, when their nervous their quite, you get the point, sometimes, one minor change in your behavior with the wrong person can end your life, or it can end with failing a mission"
Currently, in Edgeshot's training room, you can see 2 people, a beautiful dark skin woman wearing round glasses making her seem like a teacher with a marker in her hand, standing next to a mobile whiteboard with various drawings and words. In front of the woman, there was a dark purple hair teenager sitting down paying attention to what she was saying, he was wearing Karate Gi, and he had a rather tiring expression.
It has been 3 days, and these 3 days have consisted of training, learning, meditation, and patrolling around the area, Mineta has become quite famous because of his amazing hero suit that has attracted a lot of people.
"Linda..." Before Mineta could continue what he was going to say Linda shot him a glare, "...Miss Linda, I know already how to control my emotions, all I need to do is not think about it or care" Mineta said confidently.
Mineta didn't feel the actual need for these lessons, it's true that he wanted to put a sword through Edgeshot's throat for saying that Mei is ugly, but in his defense, he was just caught off guard, he swears he wouldn't do it again...probably.
"oh really, stand in front of me" Linda ordered Mineta, Mineta stood up and stood in front of Linda, "Your mom made the right decision leaving you and your father" Linda insulted with a mocking voice, Mineta's eyes widened a little and he clenched his fist and grit his teeth, his hands shaking a little out of anger and sadness. Everything that displayed his emotions was obvious to Linda.
"Your hands are shaking, you're clenching your fist, you are grinding your teeth, your eyes widen, the atmosphere around you changed to one of a murderer, do you want me to continue?" Linda said hitting each part she was mentioning with the marker in her hand. Mineta stood there taking everything she said in, also thinking about her words.
"How did you know that?" Mineta asked, Linda, stood there quiet for a few seconds, "We ran a background check on you" She told Mineta.
"Also, what I said was just to show you how frail humans really are, especially you, emotions can cost us many things, and the last thing we want is a future strong hero to die during battle because he couldn't control his emotions. Rage, sadness, happiness all those emotions are useless until the villain is fully caught, and the surrounding area is clear, you shall not let your emotions fog your judgment, don't let them control you, and don't let it cost your life or someone else's" Linda told Mineta, what she was saying was true.
Many heroes have died being clouded by rage, or have made horrible decisions by acting upon their emotions. Edgeshot has been a witness to several occasions as well as Linda, and the last thing they want is Mineta to fall for the same thing.
"I understand" Mineta nodded, fully committed to these lessons now, after that they continued the lesson, but a few minutes later edgeshot entered the room wearing his hero costume.
His hero suit was different from the show, it wasn't as baggy and instead of being colorful, it was black and white. It was a lot cooler.

"Put on your suit, we're going patrolling" Edgeshot told Mineta, Mineta, right after hearing Edgeshot's words stood up as fast as he could and ran to go get his suit.
"He must really not like your lessons" Edgeshot said to Linda while walking up to her, "oh be quiet" Linda said while wrapping her arms around his neck, the difference in height was quite noticeable, Edgeshot being 5'11 and Linda being 5'4.
"Yes, ma'am" Followed edgeshot lowering his hero costume face mask to give her a kiss, after the kiss Linda looked at Edgeshot questioningly, "What is it?" Edgeshot asked her confused as to why she was staring at him like that.
"Why are you going patrolling? I thought it was only supposed to be this morning with him" Linda asked her husband, she saw as he let out a sigh, "Nothing goes by you huh, well, the reason is...I have a bad feeling" Edgeshot answered her.
"A bad feeling?" She questioningly said, "Yeah, I don't know, but something feels off, the air doesn't feel right tonight, so I'm going patrolling to make sure nothing is happening or happens" Edgeshot told her.
"Okay, be safe out there" Linda told Edgeshot giving him a kiss, "I will" Edgeshot answered Kissing her back.

Once again the sun goes down and the moon rises, and now it is yet another cold night in Japan, you can see couples being on dates, workers going home after a long day of work, and the loud noises of cars. On the sidewalk you can see 2 badass heroes walking, one had 2 giant swords on his back making an x covered in black bandages with trails of neon purple lines, his costume consisted of skin-tight black clothing with a utility belt, a small jacket with a hood on, a mask that covered his face that had dark purple lines, and a logo in the middle of his chest that resembled a Japanese demon.

This was the hero Lilac, also known as Mineta Minoru, you guys might be asking, why is Mineta wearing such a suit that doesn't go according to his quirk? Well, the thing is, it does. The suit Mineta is wearing is very technological and stretchy, it's also made from his own blood. Every time Mineta uses his quirk, the suit reacts and opens up the exact part where he's going to use it.
For example, if his going to make a blade coming out of his calves, that part of the suit will open up and let the blade out, and once it goes back on his skin it closes up again. Every time it happens it's instantaneous, making it so it doesn't get damaged, but even then, if the suit does get damaged, it can repair itself. Of course, the suit isn't completely finished, but, it can do the work for now.
The suit also has the feature of perfectly fitting him, as you know Mineta grows spurt is still no near over, so every time he puts an on, it'll fit him perfectly, also the suit can only be worn by him. It also has voice commands and more cool stuff. This suit was inspired by Red hood. Mineta knew him very well and always loved his suits.
Anyway besides Mineta is the number 4 hero Edgeshot, also his master, which Mineta doesn't know yet. They were patrolling the area, it was a very busy night, filled with people everywhere.
"It's a beautiful night" Mineta said, looking around and seeing the beautiful lights of cars, commercials, and more, it indeed was a beautiful night.
"Well, Japan is quite known to be one of the most beautiful countries during the night" Edgeshot told Mineta, it was peaceful, almost as if they lived in a world of peace, but that was far from it.
They continued patrolling but while making small talk Mineta was thinking something, 'Now that I think about it, which day exactly does the fight with Stain happen?' Mineta thought, 'If I had to take a guess it would either be on the 4th or 5th day...or 3rd' Mineta finished his thoughts.
He came to a realization, his instincts went off, and as if his own stupidity was making fun of him...
*BOOOM*
An explosion across the street happened, there was a silence for a literal second, and then everyone went crazy, people left and right started screaming, the explosion was quite big, enough for everyone in sight to see it, hear it, and feel it.
"EVERYONE RUN AS FAR AS YOU CAN, DO NOT STOP RUNNING UNTIL YOU ARE SAFE WITH A HERO!!!" Edgeshot instantly shouted, everyone, heard his words and followed as he said, Edgeshot then started running towards the explosion with Mineta following right behind.
'What!?!? I'm not in Hosu city?!!? Wait, then this isn't related to Stain!!' Mineta screamed in his mind, Edgeshot and Mineta ran across the street, directly looking where the explosion occurred, it seemed to be in a cafe, and from what they could see, whatever or whoever it was, ran straight through the building.
'I didn't hear anything coming!?! Unless-' Before Mineta could finish his thoughts, his face was covered by a big hand, the big hand grabbed his face and dragged him through the building behind Mineta, all of this happening in just a second, the villain was very fast!
Edgeshot who was running beside Mineta didn't have time to react, Edgeshot caught a glimpse of the beast grabbing Mineta's face but he was too slow to react, completely shocked at what happened, his eyes widen, and he stood there for a second thinking of his next move, he used his right hand to press on the headphone on his right ear and exclaimed, "Lilac, you have my permission to use your quirk, I'll be evacuating the civilians and making sure there isn't another villain, good luck!"
Edgeshot turned his head to where the explosion was to hear some inhuman noises, he secretly took out his phone and called for backup. This was going to be a rough night...
