Title: Better...

….

The next day, during homeroom, Aizawa talks to the class about their next challenge.

"Your next big thing is obtaining their Provisional Hero License. It has a roughly  50% passing rate."

"I am gonna pass this. Then I will ask Kaminari out again. Gotta make sure that no one is around this time." Whispers Mina to Toru. Aizawa doesn't say anything and instead just throws a chalk, hitting Mina in the forehead. "Ow!" She yelps, and stops talking as she sees Aizawa's scary look in his eyes.

"Anyway, as I was saying." Continues Aizawa as if nothing happened. "That is why we will be spending time developing your ultimate moves."

Then as if on cue, Cementoss, Ectoplasm, and Midnight enter the classroom and elaborate more on the importance of ultimate moves. 

Kaminari drones out at this, he already has countless Ultimate Moves. Instead, he looks at Momo who is writing everything down, she has become very serious recently as she wants to catch up to her electrifying friend. 

"-anyway, out on your Hero Costumes and come to Gym Gamma." Says Midnight, and like always she leaves an innuendo about skintight Hero Costumes before she walks away.

 ...

Class 1-A changes into their hero costumes. Midoriya looks at Kaminari as he is conversing with Kirishima, both of them already having their Ultimate Moves.

Kaminari catches Izuku staring at him and looks at him weirdly before covering his body. "Sorry Midoriya, but I don't swing that way."

As soon as Kaminari says that everyone now looks at an embarrassed Izuku, which was the worst move to make as now everyone looks at the user of One For All weirdly. 

Kaminari only snickers at this. "C'mon, I was just joking around. But your reaction made me question it for real now. Hahahaha..."

...

After some joking around, the Class meets at Gym Gamma to begin their training.

Izuku looks at Ochako and like always, she is looking at Kaminari. Usually, he wouldn't think about things like this, but yesterday evening he heard the girls having some girl talk, and Kaminari was mentioned a lot… like by every single girl in the class.

"This gym also goes by another name." Aizawa starts explaining. "It is 'Training Dining Land or TDL."

This confuses everyone why he would say something like that. Even Kaminari is confused. He wonders if this is something important.

But Cementoss comes forward and starts explaining in more detail. "Well, it is because of me. I can change the environment into anything I want by using my quirk. So this can create many environments to fight in. In this way the gym "caters" for each student - hence the "Dining" in "TDL."

Kaminari listens to this with a bored expression on his face. He didn't care about any of this. 

Tenya abruptly asks why the class must have ultimate moves for the Provisional Hero License Exam, Aizawa replies by stating that the exam tests many facets of being a Hero, and Midnight points out the particular importance of fighting ability, of which ultimate moves are an integral part.

Ectoplasm brings up Tenya's Recipro Burst as an example of an ultimate move, claiming that it poses enough threat to be classified as one, much to Tenya's delight.

Midnight looks at Kaminari. "Also your Lightning Speed also classifies as an Ultimate Move."

Kaminari nods at that, already knowing this. Also, his Iron Sand manipulation classifies as an Ultimate Move in a way.

Aizawa then seemingly just remembers something and points it out to the students. "Oh, by the way. You will all spend the remainder of the summer perfecting your ultimate moves. Also, you should all think about some costume upgrades."

… 

With that said the class begins training by fighting against Ectoplasm clones. Kaminari too, but this time he is not planning to use his Quirk at all. Instead, he plans to learn some genuine hand-to-hand fighting.

The clone looks at Kaminari and sighs. "Honestly, Kaminari, you are already good enough. I have no idea what to teach you. Except for some close-quarters combat without your quirk."

That is the truth, and Ectoplasm easily admitted that. Kaminari is at the top, not only in his class, year or school. He will be on the Top 5 at least if he is immediately made a Hero.

'He will be the hardest to teach. Because I don't have much to teach him.' Thinks the Ectoplasm clone, but he is also proud of the future Hero. 

At the same time, many different students are learning new things too. All with different difficulties.

...

Mina tries shooting a jet of acid from her palms, but the jet does not travel more than a few feet. The Ectoplasm clone suggests for her to make a nozzle with her fingers, increasing the velocity of her acid jet and allowing it to shoot farther. 

...

An Ectoplasm clone challenges Momo to create two items at once, which she does easily.

...

 Izuku stares at the rest of his classmates and tells his Ectoplasm clone that he isn't sure how an ultimate move would work, as his arms are vulnerable to damage if he pushes his Quirk too far.

 The clone tells Izuku to simply work on developing his Quirk for the day.

..

That is when All Might appears at the entrance of the gym, he is in his thin form. Though he is still an active duty Hero due to Kaminari's help during the All For One fight. He can feel that he won't be able to use One For All for much longer, the Quirk is simply moving on to the new user and weakening by the day. 

He focuses immediately on Izuku, noticing he is having trouble coming up with an ultimate move. 

...

Bakugo on the other hand explosively defeats his clone and demands Ectoplasm make another.

Ochaco, who is practicing self-levitation, Rikido, who is powering up with cake, and Toru remark on Katsuki's impressive ability and power. 

All Might appears next to Izuku as he looks at the other students improving. Kaminari too was having a hand-to-hand fight with an Ectoplasm clone. Due to the latter being a Hero very experienced with close-quarters combat, Kaminari was losing terribly because he isn't using his Quirk at all. 

'Honestly… that kid is something else. Always trying to improve no matter what.' Contemplates All Might, truly impressed by Kaminari's attitude. He never is arrogant, even after fighting one of the most dangerous villains (if not the most dangerous) in the world. He is still humble and doesn't mind getting beaten by Ectoplasm, still refusing to use his Quirk, and continues to fight.

That is when All Might gets an idea and looks at Izuku. "Midoriya, you are too hard to copy All Might."

He stays in character as he says that, just so others don't figure out who he is.

All Might smiles as Izuku seems to figure something out, then the Nr.1 Hero moves on to give advice to Eijiro.

….

After the first day of training, Kaminari heads to the Development Studio for a costume upgrade. He needs some new things to be added, metal can also be added since it doesn't isolate his power anymore, instead, it helps him levitate his body.

Izuku, Tenya, and Ochaco accompany him.

"So you guys need some upgrades too?" Asks Kaminari, a gentle smile appeared on his face. This makes Ochako flushed. 

"Yes." The first to answer is Tenya. "I am looking for a radiator to keep my engines cool."

"Woah, that would bring your Quirk to a new level if you were able to get that." Exclaims Kaminari in amazement. "I will have to be very careful of you now when we fight. You Ultimate Move <Recipro Burst> could be spammed and one hit from that and I would either be out for the count or close to it."

Tenya looks at Kaminari in shock when he says that. After all, Kaminari saying that he will have to be careful against him is the best compliment one can get. Especially a speed type like Tenya. 

Of course, whether Kaminari told the truth on that or not… only he will know.

Ochako smiles at this too. "Yep, you better watch out for me too. Since I will get a tool to lessen my nausea."

Though she says it as a joke, Kaminari nods at her with a serious look on his face. "Yes, honestly, yours is one of the strongest Quirks in Class. I mean, one-touch and most people are finished in a fight against you. For example, remember the Nomu that we fought during USJ?" They nod. "Well, if you touched him and let him float up. It wouldn't be able to do anything, game over. A creature that was able to fight All Might almost equally, you would have been able to immobilize it."

Ochako stops walking and looks shocked. She never thought about it that way, she never saw her Quirk as something amongst the strongest in the Class. Especially when Kaminari mentioned Nomu, all of them saw how terrifying the creature was. But Ochako could have handled it with one touch.

Even Izuku was amazed by this. He is also amazed by Kaminari. 'No wonder he took his Quirk so far. I should ask him for some advice sometimes. He will know how to improve something.'

 He is about to ask when…

BOOOM!!!

An explosion covers them all...
