Some training first!

Once the study session was over, Izuku, Setsuna, Kirishima, Mina, Ochaco and Momo followed after Kendo to her place. They entered her house and her dojo. "Okay, get ready Midoriya, we'll start with a sparring round with you, let Kirishima see what he's getting into~!" she chirped, heading into the nearby changing room, and then coming out wearing her gi.

"Okay then," Izuku nodded, going into the changing room himself to change into his track suit. When he came back out, Kendo was already in her stance. They prepared themselves, then charged at each other. Izuku had been improving a good deal, and actually managed to block a few blows and land a palm strike on Kendo's chest. Of course, he knew she was still going easy on him.

Sure enough, she quickly stepped it up, and regained the upper hand. Quickly overwhelmed, Izuku resorted to ducking and trying a sweep kick to try knocking her off her feet. She simply lifed a foot, and planted it against his knee, stopping the limb short. "You are going to want to be careful doing that move in a real fight," she lectured. "It can be pretty effective, but you leave yourself open to an extremely painful counter if you try it on an opponent who is not slower than you, less experienced, or caught off gaurd. Preferably, you want all three in your favor, or at least two of the factors, but if you don't have at least one, well..." She applied a little more **** against his knee to emphasize, not enough to cause serious discomfort, but enough to get the point across.

Izuku paled at the thought. In a real fight, against an opponent like Kendo, they could easily kick him right in the knee if he tried that, and with his leg outstretched, it would be absurdly easy to **** the knee to bend in the opposite direction it was supposed to with enough **** behind the counter blow. That sounded like an excellent way to absolutely get his leg fucked up. "G-got it," he gulped, making a mental note to never attempt a sweep kick unless he was completely certain he would land it.

With that, they resumed their spar, and he was quickly flat on his back. "You're certainly improving fast," Kendo noted, bending down over him with a smile on her face. "You're clearly paying close attention to every lesson. But you got a long way to go before you can take me when I'm serious. At least when we're not using our Quirks."

Izuku nodded as Kirishima and Kendo proceeded to face off. She gave him basic instructions, before proceeding to absolutely demolish him. "...sure is nice to be on the side of spectator instead of victim," he chuckled as he watched Kirishima yelp and cry uncle as Kendo was sitting on his back, his arm bent behind it as she gripped it firmly.

Ochaco and Momo giggled in agreement. Izuku and Kirishima spent the next hour taking turns getting their butts kicked, though Izuku, having already been in a few sessions with her, and practicing a bit on his own time, obviously fared better. "...you some kind of masochist?" Kirishima asked Izuku finally as he laid on the floor.

"Not really, no, but I do find Kendo fun to hang out with, and this is not only recreational, but very productive. I'm getting stronger under her tutelage," Izuku told Kirishima, helping him up as Kendo approached with water bottles.

Both boys accepted them with thanks, and took long drinks. "...guess I should also lock in on this, I can see the benefits, even if my body starts cursing my existence for it," Kirishima nodded.

"Hi there Preacher, name's Choir, have we met?" Izuku quipped, getting a laugh out of Kirishima and the girls.
