(Rick's Pov)
"C'mon, Pony. You can do it! One more set!" I said to the horned girl doing push-ups beside me.
"*Huff*… I-I can't." She dropped on the sand, puffing tired breaths. Normally, I would push people until they lose consciousness, but I have a soft spot for her.
"*Sigh*… Okay, we take a short rest. Green hair, rest time!" I said to my bro.
"Sir, yes sir!" Izuku stopped his own push-ups and sat on the sand, gazing at the sea. Pony looked over at me.
"This is so hard! Rick, Izuku, are you both masochists? This is torture! And I'm not even counting the quirk training!" She complained.
Yep. Pony started training with us at Takoba beach after the exam, while we wait for the school year to finish and the U.A.'s results to come. I took a bit of convincing but she is here! In gym clothes! Totally 'not' the most important part!
I asked Izuku to come up with ways to training her quirk while I came up with ways to train her body and the supplements for her own diet. We came up with a multi-task training involving her doing all the exercises while simultaneously controlling 4 horns (her current limit), making them do complex movements such as spinning like a drill, circling around her, going far away from her, all the stuff, all accompanied by a heavy keratin diet (her horns need them to form) and my supplements.
Izuku said this is supposed to push the limits of her multi-tasking capacity for her to move her body while controlling her horns however she wishes without splitting her focus, while also breaking her current limits, such as complex movements, number of controlled horns, distance limit, and the horn's speed.
To no one's surprise, she didn't take my special training very well.
"I understand why Rick would be like that, with his mother being the R-Rated Hero and all. But you too, Izuku?" She protested. The greenette throwing his arms all over the place trying to explain himself.
Hooh. Seems she forgot who is in charge of this beach.
"If you have energy to b*llshit around, then you have energy for another set! Down and give me twenty!" I said as I pulled my shovel from my [Inventory] threateningly. [1]
"I was joking! Please, just a little more time." She gave me the puppy eyes. Damn it, my only weakness!
"Fine! I would finish it for today anyway." I looked anywhere but her face.
She just stuck her tongue out in a grin. Cheeky little girl.
"By the way, Izuku, can you do me a favor and leave first? I got something private to talk with Pony for just a little." I called my bro.
"Oh, o-okay. Uhh… see you two tomorrow!" He walked quickly out of the beach, leaving me and her alone in a somewhat tense atmosphere.
"Uhm. Rick, I'm sorry if this is about the masochist thing. It was just a jok-" I interrupted her.
"No, it's not that. I would like to know why you are arriving here always so down? Even Izuku in all his denseness noticed that. Did something happen?" I questioned.
Since last week, she arrived at Takoba Beach a little depressed and unfocused, her mind out of it. I didn't notice it right away, but it got worse as days went on.
Pony grabbed her arm and looked to the side, her head down. She clearly didn't want to talk about it, but sometimes you gotta push it. Not always being silent is the right choice.
"Pony, please. We are friends, right? You can tell me anything. I might be able to help, and even if I don't, I can at least listen and you vent out a little. I miss that bubbly smile you had." I sat close to her and put a hand on her shoulder.
She looked up straight to my eyes. I met her gaze with a worried one.
"I-It's nothing, really. Just some girls being mean in my accent. I took it harder than I should, it's not that bad. I guess I'm still a little out of it from moving to Japan." She said.
"Why these girls are being mean to you? Any particular reason or it started right after you spoke your accent?" I inquired further, trying to make my voice as comforting as I could instead of demanding.
"No. Everything was fine for the first day, I even tried to make friends with them. But they all changed after a bunch of guys wanted to sit at my table at lunchtime. I don't understand what I did wrong." She told me while grabbing her hands together.
Jealous b*tches, huh?
"You did nothing wrong Pony. They are the ones in the wrong, that couldn't take you being in the spotlight for not even a moment." I hugged her and stroke her hair. She hugged me back.
Now that I know the kind of people I'm dealing with, I can make a plan. And I already know what to do.
"Pony, you trust me, right?" I scoped her face and lift it up to look me face-to-face.
"Y-Yeah." Pony stuttered and her face became hot under my palms. I'll take it as a score.
"Tell me where is your school and when your final exam is. I know it's near but not the exact day. Ah, and the looks of these girls." I asked the girl.
"What are you going to do?" She answered with a question of her own, a bit unease.
"Nothing you have to worry; I promise in the name of the United States of America." I gave her a reassuring smile.
"O-Okay." Pony picked her phone and sent me her school address and her exam instructions, including the day and a rough description of the bullies. It was going to be a week from today. Plenty of time to prepare.
"Perfect! Now there is only one thing left to do." I grinned at the girl beside me. My fingers ready for the ultimate depression killer technique.
Tickle.
"HAHaha! R-Rick, s-stop! I can't breathe!" Pony said between laughs as she rolled on the sand, struggling against my fingers to no avail. I stopped soon after.
"Are you feeling better now? Did I succeed in tickling away your mood?" I asked the girl.
"Yes… thank you, Rick, I really needed that." She opened her arms for a hug. I opened mine to meet hers but it was a trap!
She pounced me wriggling her fingers on the sides of my torso and neck. I was so surprised by the sneak attack that I couldn't even mentally ready myself for it. I fell on the sand face first in uncontrollable laugher and she stopped.
"Revenge for making me roll on sand. My hair is a mess and my clothes are full of them now!" Pony cutely nagged.
"Heh. Sorry, not sorry. Besides, you look good with messy hair."
The horned girl turned her back at me, not showing her red face. She is so easy to fluster. Another score!
Before I continued to push my luck I heard a loud growling sound. I looked at my stomach. Nop, it wasn't me, so it must be…
Pony face was beet-red, mortified from releasing such a sound. A part of me wanted to try her a little more and experiment with how red can someone be, but the other part pitied her.
"Wanna grab something to eat?" I got up and invited her, lending a hand for her to get up too.
"Y-Yes. I would love to."
We hopped in my car and went to the closest food truck.

(3rd Person Pov)
One week after Pony's confession about her situation, Rick put in motion his plan. A perfect plan to deal with b*tches.
He put on his 'chad' clothes, composed of U.S.A.'s vertical flag tank top, military camouflage cargo pants, and black boots. He put off his helmet this time, showing his brownish blond hair in a military haircut and wearing aviator glasses. The perfect bait for his scheme.
He went to Pony's school, parked his Cadillac right in front of the entrance, and stood there, leaning on its brick wall. The horned girl was still doing her final exam, so he waited while smoking a cigar.
As time went on, the students started getting out of the building. Rick paid no mind to them, trying to locate either Pony or the bullies in the crowd. He heard some students muttering while looking at him, intrigued by the man leaning on the gate.
"Hey, there handsome~" A voice spoke in front of him. It was a girl with emerald hair and her school uniform was organized in such a way that showed how much the person wanted her breasts to be noted, even slightly leaning to show her cleavage even more. Yep, it was her, the leader of the b*tches that made fun of Pony's accent. He could see a group of girls far away looking at them, most likely the rest of the gang.
She was even kind enough to save him the trouble of looking to her. How nice of her. Time to start operation: B*tch Slayer.
"Oh, yeah. Hey, do you know where I can find a small blondie, about this height?" He measured using his hand and the ground. "With big horns, and a cute accent? Thanks." The soldier described.
The girl froze in her tracks. The guy in front of her was a 10/10. He had a smoking hot body, the 'bad boy' vibe with clothes and a cigar, and an expensive car which she knew it was his, and money for sure. The type of guy who drooled to hot women like her, and had egos easy to manipulate. The emerald-hair knew she had a hot body, and she made sure to show it.
Yet, this guy rejected her like she was nothing. And asked about… Pony?!
'Impossible! How that cow managed to get a guy like him?! She can't even speak right!' The emerald-haired girl fussed inside her mind.
"A-Ah… are you not mistaken? Won't you rather talk with-"
"There she is!" Rick interrupted and walked past her, bumping on her left shoulder as she was in the way, not even brothering walking around her.
Pony was walking out of the building with her uniform, composed of a long-sleeve black shirt and skirt. She had a tired look on her face, probably from the exam. That, until she saw him.
"R-Rick? Is that you? What are you doing here? And where is your helmet?" The horned blonde asked in succession and surprise.
Rick approached her and summoned a bouquet of flowers, drawing surprised gasps from the crowd and Pony herself.
"Why would a guy go to a pretty girl like you to pick her up? Did the exam made you forget our date?" He said while giving her the bouquet. Before she could say anything he sneakily pointed towards the group of bullied and winked at her. "Remember?"
The American girl became wide-eyed as she remembered Rick's talk a week ago. So this was his plan? She had to play along in front of everyone?!
"Y-Y-Yes, I do." She said while hiding the massive blush that spread all over her face with the flowers. She could even feel the heat coming off her face.
"Great! So may we?" He extended a hand, and Pony grabbed it.
They walked past everyone in the school towards the entrance. Rick looked to the crowd as they made way for them. Some girls blushing, some going all 'kyaa~' from seeing the romantic scene, other guys nodding to him in respect, and others who stared daggers at him. He had to use all his willpower to not start laughing, and Pony to not freeze from mortification.
They finally went past the b*tch gang leader, who was still at the entrance frozen in place. The horned girl was not a fan of revenge; She didn't feel better getting back on her at all, but her body seemed to have other thoughts. Almost as if it was automatic, she stuck her tongue out in a victorious grin, the emerald hair clenched her hands and her face full red from either anger or embarrassment, maybe both.
They entered the car and Rick drove it away from her school. Pony couldn't believe what happened even now.
"Oh my God. Rick, that was-"
"Amazing?" He said with a cheeky and proud grin and received a punch on the shoulder.
"You…! Do you have any idea how embarrassed I was? how will I ever go back there after this?!" She yelled with an adorable pout, blush on her cheeks, and her eyes almost forming tears. Simply adorable.
"Today is your final exam, remember? You don't have to go there anymore. All part of my master plan." Rick told her, pointing towards his head.
"May I know what this 'master plan' was?"
"Sure. It went on something like this: I realized that the bullies were jealous b*tches for sure, so I dressed like this and parked my car right in front of your school to bait them. Superficial people like them are attracted like moths by this whole 'combo'. It had some holes, not gonna lie, but that girl played her whole perfectly." He continued.
"After she tried to woo me, I discarded her like nothing and asked for you, while praising your accent she made fun of. You appeared, I went towards you making sure to bump her on the way, gave you flowers in front of everyone, and left, not looking at her not even a single time. And now that you will never see her again, she can't do anything about it! The ultimate slap in the face!"
"This kind of people love attention, the best way to humiliate them is by discarding them like they didn't even exist. Not by fighting them or something. She will remember 'till her grave!" He explained with a slightly malevolent laugh.
Pony could only stare at him after hearing this. She couldn't form words after such a stunt and dedication he put in to avenge her. The girl couldn't stop the tears forming in her eyes. She went forward and kissed his cheek and hugged him right after.
"Thank you. Thank you so, so much."
"Anything for you, Pony." He hugged her back.
They stood there for a while until Pony opened her eyes and saw that the steering wheel was empty. No one was driving the car!
"RICK! THE CAR!" She released the hug and screamed at Rick.
"PPFFTT…Hahaha! My car can drive itself, no reason to fret, you worry-girl." He showed her the wheel turning on its own as if a ghost was driving it. Pony released the breath she was unconsciously holding.
"Uuu… never scare me like this again. My heart almost jumped out of me." She rested on her sit, tired from the stress.
"Sure." The soldier took the wheel again and drove the car.
Pony looked to the window and saw that they were not going to her home.
"Rick, where are we going?" She questioned the driver.
"Where else? We are going to our date." He looked at her with a smirk.
"W-What? Wasn't it just a ruse to your plan?" The horned girl lost count how many times she blushed by the dork in front of her.
"Ha! As if I would miss an opportunity to get out with a cutie like you. I'll be stealing you for the rest of the day!" He declared while raising his fist up.
"I-I don't know what to say." Pony looked to the side, unsure how to respond to such bold action.
"How about yes?"
She refused to answer him.
"I'll take that as a yes. By the way, we arrived. I guessed you would be hungry after the test." He parked his ride.
They got out of the car to meet a small restaurant called 'Scott's Gourmet Burgers'. It had that fast food atmosphere, a bit more on the fancy side. Rick opened the door and gestured for Pony to enter before him. She blushed a little and entered without saying a word, he followed after her.
"Oh, if it isn't Rick. Good morning! The same as alwa-" A man burst out of the kitchen and greeted him, pausing after noticing he was not alone. "Hohoho! You brought a girl with you this time! Is it a friend girl or a girlfriend?" He smirked at his own joke.
"Good morning for you too, Robert. This is Pony. Pony, this is Robert. He is also an American." Rick introduced them to each other.
"Really? That's why you were speaking English too!" She beamed (in English) with stars in her eyes, excited in meeting other people who spoke her language.
"You are an American too, lady? Another one to our American family!" He said. "Now that we got this out of the way, what you guys want to eat?"
Rick choose a cheeseburger with fries and Pony would pick the vegetarian one for her diet if Rick didn't erase it right away, telling her that with his training she should worry about becoming a skeleton and not fat. She picked the classic burger with sugary apple sauce. Robert came a few minutes later with their order.
"Two burgers for the lovebirds!" He put the food in front of them, noticing the awkward atmosphere around the girl. "Are you two not dating?" He questioned.
"I don't know. Pony, are we?" The soldier inquired, trying to hold his smug grin in.
"Stop teasing me!" She was almost crying at this point.
"Okay, okay. I promise this is the last for today." He swore.
Robert smiled at the exchange and left them alone and went back to the kitchen. Rick and Pony started eating their meal. She ate her burger and went for the fries, faster than he. The exam really took her energy. [2]
The girl asked the cook why they went to Japan, which he answered it was because of work, which failed. He decided then to establish his own piece of America in this country, his restaurant. Pony also told him about her parents coming over to Japan for the same reason. He told her to invite them over someday, to which she agreed.
"Your exam, did everything went fine?" Rick asked her.
"Mostly. Japanese language and history are hard. Your tips helped me on the language part at least." She answered while finishing the fries.
"Good. I know how hard they can be. I'm pretty lucky not to need to go to school. In high school though, I'm screwed. Let's hope U.A. cares more about the hero stuff than the student one." He commented. In his past life, he didn't get to enter one before dying, he would not have the same advantage he had in middle school.
"Yeah." She agreed.
"Now that we finished here, are you up for a dessert?" He proposed.
"There is more?" The girl said startled.
"Of course! You call a date only going to eat a burger? As I said, I'm stealing you for the rest of the day. C'mon!"
He paid Robert and they went to the car for their next destination.
"You said before apples were your favorite food, right? You are going to love this." He proclaimed as they went to the outskirts of Musutafu, on the corner of a city block. It was a super fancy bakery that looked straight from a classic French city in the movies.
They went towards the place (Rick again opening the door for her, gaining an eye-roll) and sat in one of the free tables. This bakery even had French music playing in the background.
"Monsieur, if I may say so, how can I help you?" A blond boy came with a waiter's clothes, and a weird metal belt with a glass circle on the middle hugging his hips.
"One slice of apple pie and one of cheese pie to eat here, and a whole apple pie for the trip." He said. The waiter just nodded and went to the kitchen.
"Rick, not that I'm complaining, but why did you order a whole pie?" Pony asked him.
"A treat for you to bring. I know how much you love them." He smiled at her.
She wanted to refuse after he did so much for her, but he just brushes it off saying it's nothing.
"Monsieur, Madame, here is your order." The boy came with a cloche and open it, showing two perfect slices of apple pie. "Bon appétit". He left to attend another client that arrived.
Pony was almost drooling by looking at them.
"What are you waiting for? Let's dig in!" He exclaimed.
The girl ate her slice with such satisfaction that Rick's appetite opened up. He actually became curious if the pie was that good.
"Hey, Pony. Can I try some of yours?" The soldier asked her.
"Sure." She gave him her fork with a piece of the pie. He took it and taste it.
"Wow, this is actually the best sweet thing I've ever… why are you blushing?" He asked, and she pointed towards the fork. Her fork.
"Oh."
An indirect kiss.
He is not the type of guy to actually mind things like this, but it seems Pony was. The way she stared at him speechless made him more awkward than he thought. Both of them just looking at each other. He had to break this somehow.
"Here's a piece of mine so that we are even." He handed her his fork with a piece of cheese pie.
She stared at it for a while but ultimately decided to eat it.
"It wasn't such a big deal, was it?" He said.
"N-No it wasn't. I don't know why I reacted that way… I guess I'm watching too many animes." She said while scratching the back of her head. [3]
"Anime? I only watched cartoons." He said.
"… You never watched an anime?" The mare-girl looked at him almost in sacrilege.
"Nop."
Pony proceeded to give a speech about how awesome animes were. Rick wasn't really into it but at least she got looser than she was before, so uptight, and that's all that mattered. He asked her what's her favorite one, which turned out to be Dragon Ball. It surprised me how eager she was of talking about it. The girl told him the entire timeline of it! And made him promise to watch it later.
He spoke about some memes he saw about the animation on the internet, which she either laughed at or cringed while explaining them to him.
She asked him about his favorites cartoons, which he was Ben 10. The soldier told her about all the great things about the show, and how they screwed up with the Omniverse and the reboot. When they realized the sun was almost setting. They spent the entire day there talking about animes and cartoons.
They hopped into the Cadillac, and Rick asked her.
"Where do you want to go? I told you I would steal you for the day, but since it already passed, what you want to do?"
Pony thought about the place she liked to go to when she was feeling down.
"How about the amusement park? They have those cool games and the best love apples!" She proposed.
"Pony, I promised you to not tease you again for today, but you are making this really hard for me."
She took a moment to realize what she said before looking to the side with a pouting red face. Rick laugh it off and drove to the park.
Arriving there, Pony lead him to her favorite games. Rick put up a show in the high striker (the one with a hammer and the lever with a bell at the top) and the shooting game, earning a plush unicorn that he promptly gave to her. They went to the All-Might roller coaster and all the other things until it became night.
"What a day, right Pony?"
"Yeah. Today was awesome."
They stood there on the bench relaxing while eating their Love apples.
"Are you up for a movie?" He suggested.
"I don't know Rick. It's getting pretty late…" She replied unsurely.
"Just a movie and we finish this date. C'mon, Pony, just this one final thing." He insisted.
"… Fine. What movies are up?" The mare-girl asked.
Rick searched the available Movies in the cinema and saw that a Dragon Ball movie was up in the cinema. It was Dragon Ball Super: Broly. He showed it to her.
"I haven't seen it yet because of the exam. It's perfect!" The female American said.
"Yeah, Let's go!" The male American agreed.
They arrived at the movie theater and asked for two tickets for the Broly movie. While Pony picked the popcorn Rick sneakily went to the guy in the who sold tickets and 'gifted' him plenty of 'papers', in exchange for him to close the movie room for everybody but him and Pony.
"I bought the popcorn and candy bars! Let's get in the line, Rick." She said.
As they went to the line of people waiting to enter the room, a worker of the theater said that the movie projector wasn't working, getting a bunch of depressed and angry responses from the crowd. Pony was bummed out from the news and was about to leave, but Rick grabbed her and gestured her to be silent with a finger on his mouth.
Rick just nodded to the worker who brought the news and went past him with her, much to the confusion of the girl.
"Rick, what's going on?" She asked him
"I got a private room for us to see the movie. I'm awesome, right?" He said with a proud look in his eyes.
"Rick…" She just narrowed her eyes at him, not happy about her friend's illegal activities.
"I know, I know. But c'mon, this is our first date. All is fair in love and war!" He ignored the eyes burying on his back and marched forward the room.
Rick and Pony sat right in the middle of the room, the best place to see the movie.
As the movie began and went on, Pony was almost jumping on her chair in excitement. Laughing at this 'Frieza' guy getting smacked by the giant brute smacking him around like a ragdoll, shouting at 'Goku' screaming and changing his hair color. Rick didn't pay attention to the movie, but instead stared at her, seeing her reactions. Her joy was almost infecting. After a while the girl noticed him gazing at her.
"Rick… why are you staring at me?" Pony asked.
"I don't know. You are just beautiful to look at." He answered truthfully.
Her cheeks became red. "R-Really?"
"Really."
They stared at each other for an unknown time. None of them knew who started it, but their faces grew closer and closer as if a magnet activated. Their lips crashed together in a battle of tongues, his hands meeting her hips instinctively, and her arms wrapping around his neck the same way.
For the rest of the movie, they spent exploring each other's mouths. Neither of them stopping. Before things got even wilder the room's lights went on, signaling the movie's end.
They got out of there and went straight to Rick's car, not uttering a single word.
As Rick ignited the car and drove to Pony's home, he broke the silence with a question.
"Pony, I… would you be my girlfriend? I-I know this may be too fast but I like really, really-" He blurted out nervously. He never did this before.
"Yes."
"really, like you… wait. Really?!" The soldier exclaimed stunned.
"Yes, I would love to." She beamed a smile at him despite the massive crimson that was her face.
He couldn't contain his happiness and hugged her in a bear hug, kissing her. She giggled at it and hugged him too. Everything has never been so perfect. They continued there for a couple of seconds.
"Do you want to make out again?" He offered.
"Totally." The girl accepted in a beat with her newfound courage.
As the car drove itself towards its destiny, they engaged in tongue warfare again, until the car stopped in front of her house. It was a big apartment complex.
"T-This is it, I guess. See you tomorrow?" She said while getting out of the car.
"See you tomorrow." He sent her a goodbye.
As she went towards her home Rick remembered something.
"Ah. Wait. Pony! You forgot your pie and flowers!" He got out of the car and summoned the pie and bouquet from his [Inventory] and gave it to her.
"O-Oh! I forgot. Sorry."
"No problem, you had a long day. Good night, girl."
"Good night, boy." She joked.
He chuckled a bit and went back to his car. He closed the windows of his car and activated the 'silence' mode, that muffles and sound inside the vehicle.
"OOOOO YYEAAAHHH!!! HOME RUN, BABY!" He yelled while pumping his arms up.
His plan worked perfectly, he avenged Pony, went on a date with her, kissed her, and she is now his girlfriend. It was a perfect outcome.
What could go wrong?
What Rick didn't take into account was Pony's parents, and their reaction to seeing their daughter arriving home almost at midnight looking like a mess while carrying a pie box and a bouquet of flowers.
But that was a problem for another day.

(Rick's Pov)
I woke up from yesterday's date and immediately went for my phone.
> You are in a private chat with [4PPL3_Pi3]!
[S0Ld/3r]: Good morning, girlfriend! How are you doing?
[4PPL3_Pi3]: … Rick, things went wrong. Terribly wrong! ゞ◎Д◎ヾ
[S0Ld/3r]: What happened? Did something happen to you?!
[4PPL3_Pi3]: My parents saw me yesterday arriving super late, with all the things you gave me!
[S0Ld/3r]: … Sorry? ┐(^▂ ^ ;)┌
[4PPL3_Pi3]: I had to tell them about you, and they want to see you for dinner today!
[S0Ld/3r]: (⊙.⊙)
[4PPL3_Pi3]: What are we gonna do?!
[S0Ld/3r]: Relax, it's just a family dinner. It can't be that bad.
[4PPL3_Pi3]: You don't know my dad. He is going to murder you! Throw you from the 15th floor!
[S0Ld/3r]: Relax! If the worst comes to be, I'm confident I can get out alive. I have a parachute.
[4PPL3_Pi3]: This is not helping my worries!

[4PPL3_Pi3]: I'll tell them that. Wish me luck.
[S0Ld/3r]: Good luc-
> User [4PPL3_Pi3] is now offline!
"And there she goes."
I got up and went to the kitchen to grab some grub to eat. Alas, he was interrupted by the witch.
"What were you doing last night?" His 'mom' asked, sitting on a chair in the kitchen.
"I was hanging out with a friend." I mumbled while getting the ingredients to make a pancake in the storage.
"A friend? Not Izuku?" She inquired, narrowing her eyes at me.
"Urgh, What do you wanna know?" I blurted out.
"You spent the entire day and night out yesterday, and I know this week is a final exam one, kids should be busy. Who you were with?" She inquired. Damn is she annoying.
"I got a girlfriend. There, satisfied?" I blurted out.
She just stared at me wide-eyed, trying to think of what to say. Too bad she is taking too long, I already finished my pancake.
"Anyway, I'm going to have dinner with her parents today. See ya." I left home and ignored the cries behind me.
"Now, what should I bring for the dinner? And wear?" I mused to myself.
"KAAA!" Zeus cried from the house's roof.
"No! Why you only think of this?! Get a hobby! A salmon won't cut it- wait, it's actually a pretty good idea."
I mean… who doesn't like salmon? It's a pretty damn good dinner. I'm hungry now.
"To the seafood shop we go! Onwards!" I ignited the car and Zeus flew to the backseat through an open window.

(3rd Person Pov)
Rick arrived at Pony's house at 8 in the night after buying an entire cooked salmon. He wore a dark green army suit with tie and shoes, all that fancy military stuff. He even put on a military beret instead of his helmet.
He pressed the 15th-floor button and arrived at his girlfriends' apartment and pressed the doorbell
Ding-Dong!
The soldier heard hurried footsteps coming from behind the door, and it abruptly opened. It was Pony, wearing a casual but elegant dress. It was white with red in the borders.
"H-Hey, Rick. I-" She was interrupted by a kiss on her cheek.
"You are looking amazing, but I have to be honest. I prefer you in gym clothes." He asked, getting a shy *eep!* from her. The girl hid her red face with her hands.
"R-Rick, this is serious! My parents are just around the corner." She whispered while looking back, seeing if anyone heard them.
"Pony, you are too tense! Relax, I'm a May! Nothing can scare me, let's go!" He grabbed her hands and rushed to the next room, much to her dismay.
"I'm-" Rick tried to introduce himself, but was cut off by a deep, dark voice.
"So you are the one who seduced my daughter. What do you want from her, boy?"
It was a man with blond hair, deep red eyes, and giant horns similar to Pony. He had a buff body and was half a foot taller than him. He wore a black suit with a red tie, tight enough to show his muscles threateningly. He sat on a chair in front of a fancy rectangular wood table.
A woman was sitting just beside him, on his right. She also had blond hair but blue eyes instead of red and visible horse-like traits, similar to Pony.
Rick was surprised by the man's attitude. He was in military clothes, after all, it was an unconscious action for people to respect him. This man didn't even flinch.
"Honey, I think you went a bit too fast there. You two, please sit first." The woman said to her husband and invited the two to the table with a welcoming smile.
Pony sat on the man's left, and Rick at the other end of the table, right in front of the red eyes. The tension in the room could be cut with a knife.
"I brought a salmon!" The soldier summoned a fish covered in aluminum paper and put it on the table with a dumb smile, completely oblivious by the serious atmosphere.
"I am Rick May, sir! Sir, may I request an introduction?" He said with a salute.
Pony's family became stunned by the sudden scene in front of them, and the boy's boldness. The father thought if he was either courageous or dumb. He was leaning more to the latter.
"…I'm Isamu Tsunotori." The father grumbled in his seat, displeased by Rick's reaction to his threats. [4]
"I'm Sadie! Nice to meet you, Rick. How kind of you to bring us a salmon. Let's begin this dinner, right Isamu?" The mother greeted him and gave her husband an eye. [5]
"Right." He answered.
They started eating the food, gradually losing the tension from before as they dig in.
"So, how did you two meet each other?" Sadie asked with a smile.
""We met-"" Rick and Pony said at the same time. They looked at each other.
"Lady's first." He gave Pony the stick, with a thumbs up.
The girl gave a thankful smile and said, "Y-Yes. We met at U.A.'s entrance exam, just before the written test. He recognized my accent. He is an American, too."
"American? Oh my, it's been a while since I spoke English with someone." The mother told Rick in English.
"So you are the American part of the family. It's great to meet you. There are so few Americans here. With you and Pony, It's three." He replied.
"You are already doing better than me then, I've found none at all." She confessed.
"Really? Have you ever gone to 'Scott's Gourmet Burgers'? The owner is an American, and he makes the best cheeseburgers I've ever eaten." He advertised his fellow American's business.
"Good to know. I've been dying to eat one in a whi-"
"I think we got a bit sidetracked." Isamu continued. "Did anything more happen, Rick?" He inquired, his eyes squinting at him.
"We also went to the same battle site. We saved each other from a gigantic robot, it was awesome!" He said excitedly.
"… saved?" The adult repeated this 'tiny' detail.
"Yeah. Pony was trapped under a bunch of stuff. I saved her and destroyed the robot, vaporized its face, and then she saved me from breaking all my bones from falling. One of the best moments of my life."
The father just turned his head to his daughter, who found the floor exceptionally interesting today.
"I've never heard of this, but this is something for later. I think I owe you a thanks for protecting my daughter." He made a short bow. "However, as a father, I have to ask. Why are you dating my daughter?" He stared at him. Unblinkingly.
"Well… this is a very simple question." Rick stated. "She is American, cute, knows how to take a joke, saved my butt, and is easy on the eyes if you get what I mean." He looked towards Pony with a wriggle of his eyebrows.
The girl blushed at either confession or his shameless in front of her parents. Ms. Tsunotori giggled at them.
"I see… what about your career then? I see you are wearing military clothes, and yet you went to U.A.'s hero exam." The man interrogated.
"I might be young sir, but I'm a soldier." He pulled his army badge. "I'm a proudly graduated from a military school called J.A.M.S., and as for why I'm going to U.A… I'm going because it's the best school, and I'm a big fan of action you see. Doesn't help my mom teaches there."
"You mom teaches in U.A.? I heard all teachers there are heroes! Who is she?" Sadie asked excitedly. She seems to be a big fan of heroes.
"She is Midnight." He said.
"… Midnight. You mean the R-Rated Hero? The one that strips constantly?" The father provoked.
The soldier shook his head and sighed. "Yep."
The wife stared daggers at her husband, pinching him under the table "Honey, be more respectful to our guest." She warned.
"It's okay, I know how people think when they see her on T.V. I'm nothing like her, I assure you." Rick said in an oddly serious tone. A tone that the people on the table caught on.
Isamu, seeing that he might have touched a sore spot, tried changing the subject. "I-I see… *Ahem!* So, why are you here in Japan? Are liking it so far?" He asked.
The boy's mood only turned worse. "My father died some months ago… And I found out my mother is actually alive, is a Japanese, and a hero at that. So I had to come here. But overall, Japan is pretty good."
Pony's family was frozen with the answer. Especially Pony, who got to know her boyfriend had such a hard time.
"I-I apologize for bringing bad memories. I truly am." The father got up and bowed.
"It's fine. I got over it some time ago. It's just a bit frustrating." The soldier brushed off. Seeing the atmosphere take a turn for the worse he broke the ice with a curiosity of his
"Anyway, I can see where Pony got her horns from. Do they work the same as her?" He raised his question to the father, that gladly took it to escape the situation.
"Similar, but not the same. She can control their trajectory; I just shoot them." Isamu clarified.
Rick turned to the woman, "And you Sadie, what's your quirk?"
"I have the physical strength and some features of a horse. Nothing much, really."
"Cool." He replied.
They finished the dinner in somewhat an awkward climate, bunch still much better from the worst outcome from the previous exchange.
"Mom, Dad, we are going to my room now, okay?"
"Alright, sweetie." Sadie agreed.
"No funny business with my daughter." Isamu stated.
Pony got up and grabbed Rick's hand, and lead him to her bedroom, leaving the couple alone at the table.
The woman turned to her husband and said, "Honey, I like him. He reacted pretty well to everything, including your intrusion back there. And you?"
"I still don't like him." The man crossed his arms.
"Don't be grumpy now. I'm too young to have an old man to take care of." She scoffed at his behavior.
Isamu released his arms with a sigh, "He's fine. He is good financially and has a tolerable personality, even if reckless. There, satisfied?"
She looked at him with a mocking smile, "Yep."
Back at Pony's room, Rick could see a medium-sized room with an apple wallpaper, a red carpet, and a white bed (with the plush toy he got at the amusement park) at the left while a wood table on the other side. It had a T.V. on top of it, and a book side glued on the wall full of manga's, anime figurines, and more anime-related stuff. It also had a door that probably opened to a bathroom.
"This is my room. I prepared some animes for us to watch. We can sit on the bed to watch them." She showed her room.
"Already so eager to have me in your bed? Normally you gave them dinner first… wait. Is that why you told me about the dinner?" He laid on the bed with a flirty look to the girl.
"S-Stop teasing me! You are insufferable!" She shouted.
"Not my fault you look adorable when you are embarrassed." He smirked at her.
The mare-girl just pouted at him, making her even more adorable, "Uuu… Let's start this anime night soon."
Pony laid close to him and pressed a button in her phone and the T.V. came alive, showing a weird group of pirates.
"This is One Piece! A classic anime about pirates searching for a treasure in a world full of powers and monsters!" She exclaimed with stars in her eyes.
He chuckled at her excitement, "I'm in. I could use something to watch."
She visibly stiffed at his reply and snuggled closer to him "Rick… about your father… do you want to talk about it?"
"I… there is not much into it really. He was my father, an amazing guy who died because he literally f*cked too many women to a point he got a quirk-powered AIDS that killed him. I miss him dearly, but I know I'll get over it sooner or later." He clarified while hugging Pony like a teddy bear. If he had to talk about his feelings, he might as well be damn well 'comfortable' when doing so.
"The real problem is my 'mom', who appeared out of Nowhere after my entire life, which by the way she openly showed how she didn't want me back when I was a newborn, and start acting like she was a 'mom', like she had the right to do so. Has she no shame?" The soldier vented out.
Pony hugged him back, now in a cuddle, "Maybe she changed? Years passed after all." Pony tried
He scoffed at the idea, "Right. She changed. Instead of hating me, she pities me. I know that's why she decided not to leave me in an orphanage. Not really an improvement in my book."
"Hey, at least you have me, right?" The horned girl replied.
"Right. I at least got to hug a cutie like you." He said while pinching her cheeks softly.
Rick leaned for a kiss, which she met in kind. They spent a few minutes that way before Pony remembered her parents were just around the corner, ending the make-out session.
She started the 'One Piece' episode and they watch it together on the bed. Rick had to admit to his girlfriend that the anime's animation was better than any cartoon he had watched, which she smiled and recommended a website for him to watch, gaining an outrageous cry in return after Rick saw the number of episodes.
As the duo saw episode 245 (the one Pony didn't see yet), Rick had an epiphany after seeing a 'Blueno' guy explaining Luffy Tekkai, a technique that gave superhuman defense by hardening the user's muscles to the level of iron.
"Hold up. I think I can do that." The soldier got up from the bed and started taking his shirt off.
"R-Rick, w-what are you doing?" Pony covered her eyes at the sudden stripping.
He concentrated on his [Perfect Muscle]'s muscle control and reached for all in muscles in his body. With a deep breath, he contracted and compressed all of them at the same time, releasing a strained grunt at the new feeling.
"[Tekkai]!" He shouted at his new technique. His figure became temporarily super-defined, as all his musculature was contracted.
The anime fangirl realized what he just did, circling around him while poking and touching his upper body and feeling it hard as stone.
"Woah! How did you do that? Wasn't your quirk [Gun Summoning}?" She gushed in excitement, like a girl who saw the coolest thing ever.
"My family has a lot of quirks, and I inherited some pretty good stuff from it." He said while trying to come up with something about Pony touching him to embarrass her.
"Like what?" Pony beamed like
"Well…"
(Flashbacks)
Rick opened the [May's Legacy Book], continuing from he stopped last time, before the fight against All Might.
[✦5th generation]:
[✦Paternal side]:
[Dense Bones]
● Rate: 7/10
● A [Mutant] type quirk that causes the host's bones density to increase exponentially, allowing its user to sustain traumas that would shatter a standard human.
● Note: Great for tanking major physical forces.
[✦Maternal side]:
● Rank: 10/10
● Fusion of previous generation's quirks named [Soldier V.4].
'So that's why I'm so tough, my bones are denser than normal.'
While it was a good thing to have, it was nothing really flashy, nor trainable. How do you train your bones? He skipped all of the book and went to the first generation, curious to see the first 'Quirked' May in history.
[✦1st generation]:
[✦Paternal side]:
[Full Vigor]
● Rank: 2/10
● A [Mutant] type quirk that causes the host's to be able to stay at full vigor while awake.
● If the user stays awake for more than 20 hours, it starts a headache that gets increasingly worse until sleeping. While sleeping the brain completely shuts off, not being able to be awakened without a strong stimulus.
● Note: Increases combat effectiveness at a cost that might be too high to pay. Almost completely unaware while at sleep.
[✦Maternal side]:
[Insomniac]
● Rank: 3/10
● A [Mutant] type quirk that changes the brain chemistry and structure, making the host capable of staying days without sleep. It also helps in restoring mental fatigue faster.
● When asleep, half of the brain shuts down while the other stays active, similar to dolphins. This causes the host to be on guard against dangers while sleeping.
● Note: Good for long missions and protection against surprise attacks during sleep.
Now, this was convenient as hell and explained his absurd stamina even more (and his immunity to post-all-nighter sleep deprivation). Their synergy was crazy too.
'One makes the person be in a state full of energy the entire time they are awake, with side effects if they didn't sleep or went to sleep at all. The other makes the user be able to stay longer without sleep, helped to recover mental fatigue, and can be alert even while sleeping.'
They perfectly complimented each other. No wonder the government started pairing his family together from the beginning.
(Flashback Ends)
"… And that's some of the perks I have." He said.
"No sleep… you are so lucky! I wish I had something like that The number of animes I could watch in a day…" She pouted at her boyfriend's life-cheats. The instant clothes equip was not enough it seems.
He just gave a cheeky smile at her, when suddenly her room's door opened.
"Sweetie, I brought you appl- Oh my." Sadie sees her daughter with a hand on a shirtless Rick, feeling his [Tekkai], which she didn't know. A very 'sus' scene.
"T-T-This is not what it looks like!" She screamed with a face so red that one wondered how she moved with so much blood on her face and not her body.
"Honey, I heard a scream. Did anything happ-" Isamu froze after seeing his precious princess with that… that…
"GET AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER YOU PLAYBOY! STAY STILL!" He yelled at Rick while pulling a Glock from his pants.
"Oh shit!" The soldier jumped through Pony's window, gaining shocked gasps from all in the room. They lived on the 15th floor!
"RICK!" The girl went to the window and saw her boyfriend slowly falling with a parachute, releasing the breath she was unconsciously holding.
"See you tomorrow, Pony!" He gave her a wave as a goodbye and controlled his parachute to fall faster.
"And don't ever come back!" The father yelled.
The last thing they heard was his laugher growing more and more distant.

(Rick's Pov)
My stay in Japan was pretty intense.
Finding out your bro is actually the inheritor of an ancient power from the world's greatest hero, wrecking a giant mecha, getting a girlfriend, meeting her parents last week…
Her dad is annoying a h*ck though, but I can't blame him. He at least apologized so there is that. Besides, the face he had when he saw me shirtless with his daughter was priceless Hahaha! Revenge f*cker!
And now I'm here, spending my night scrolling in my phone a list of hats… I don't know why, but I just got this impulse of collecting hats…
> [4PPL3_Pi3] sent you a message!
Oh? Let's see what it is.
[4PPL3_Pi3]: Rick! My U.A.'s letter just arrived! o(≧▽≦)o
[S0Ld/3r]: Really? That's awesome! Did you see it yet?
[4PPL3_Pi3]: No. I was wondering if you wanted to see it with me… My parents aren't home this time so you won't have to worry about them bothering you.
Pony, you are so innocent… You totally deserve to be teased.
[S0Ld/3r]: Alone? Pony, I didn't know you were this type of girl. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
[4PPL3_Pi3]: I didn't mean it like that! (≧‸≦)
[S0Ld/3r]: XD
[4PPL3_Pi3]: And you? Did you see yours?
[S0Ld/3r]: Nop. I don't even have it.
[4PPL3_Pi3]: How? Doesn't your mother work there?
[S0Ld/3r]: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[S0Ld/3r]: I don't have it; it is what it is.
[4PPL3_Pi3]: Okay, then. Can you come here now?
[S0Ld/3r]: Anything for you, Pony. 15 minutes and I'm there, see you soon.
[4PPL3_Pi3]: See ya!
I get out of my room and headed to my car while equipping my cool casual clothes, consisting of a dark brown leather open jacket, a white shirt, and brown pants with a leather belt, finishing with my army boots and helmet. Luckily today, Nemuri was not home, probably in a patrol, so no nagging about where I'm going.
I drove it to her place and after listening for a minute to the elevator's music, I arrived at her door and pressed the doorbell.
*Ding Dong!*
The door opened and revealed my girlfriend in casual long blue jeans held by a leather belt, and a colored sleeveless top that showed her belly, giving her that summer vibe. It somehow felt natural in her.
"Nice outfit, the whole summer vibe really goes well in you."
She brushed her hair while turned her head to the side a little, "Thank you. You also look good in that jacket, and the whole 'badass' vibe."
"Oh, you find me a badass?" I teased her.
She just stuck her tongue out and went to her room, me following right behind her, "C'mon, I'm dying to know if I passed."
"You shouldn't worry about passing, we both know you did. You should worry about the leaderboard." I replied.
We sat on her bed together and Pony opened a white letter with the U.A. logo stamped on it, revealing a metal disk. It suddenly lit up as a hologram appeared in front of us.
"I AM HERE AS A PROJECTION!"
All Might appeared in a yellow suit with vertical black lines and a blue tie.
"PONY TSUNOTORI, I AM HERE TO- Wait. Young Rick, is that you? what are you doing there?" The No.1 Hero asked startled.
"Sup, All Might." I just wave at him in confirmation. "Just chilling with my new girlfriend as you can see." I pull a confused Pony closer as proof (gaining a cute *Eep!* as a bonus).
"Rick, you know All Might?" She asked and the Hero on the hologram started to sweat.
"We met a few times here and there. My mother is a Pro Hero, remember?" I sent a wink for All Might to catch on my excuse.
"YES INDEED! WHAT A COINCIDENCE HAHAHA!"
… I have no comment for this one.
"*Cough!* Going back to the topic. PONY, RICK! I AM HERE TO ANNOUNCE THAT FROM THIS YEAR, I AM GOING TO START WORKING AT U.A.! AND YOU, PONY, about your points…" The Hero continued.
"You passed the writing exam! But unfortunately, you got just a few points on the practical exam…" I could see Pony deflating like a balloon. A sad, depressed balloon, tears threatened to fall from the corner of her eyes. I hugged Pony and was about to give Yagi a piece of my mind when he resumed his speech.
"… however, the entrance exam is not only graded on villain points!"
"Being a hero is more than just punching a villain. It is about putting your life on the line to save all those around you with a smile! To do what is right no matter what!"
"THE RESCUE POINTS!" All Might turned to a scoreboard in a screen behind him.
[Examination Results]:
| [Name] | [Villain Points] | [Rescue Points] | [Rank] |
| Rick May | 69 | 81 | 1st |
| Katsuki Bakugo | 77 | 0 | 2nd |
| Midoriya Izuku | 15 | 60 | 3rd |
| Eijiro Kirishima | 39 | 35 | 4th |
| Ochaco Uraraka | 28 | 45 | 5th |
| Ibara Shiozaki | 36 | 32 | 6th |
| Pony Tsunotori | 11 | 55 | 7th |
| Itsuka Kendo | 25 | 40 | 8th |
| Tenya Ida | 52 | 9 | 9th |
| Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu | 49 | 10 | 10th |
"And they're given by a panel of judges. It's the other basic ability we at U.A. look at!"
"PONY TSUNOTORI, SIXTY-SIX POINTS!"
"AND RICK MAY, A HUNDRED AND FIFTY POINTS!"
All Might turned back at us with a proud, inspiring smile. The kind that fills someone with hope. "You both pass."
"O-Oh My God." She cried with a smile, moved to tears. They were tears of relief and happiness.
"Come, Young Pony and Rick."
"THIS IS YOUR HERO ACADEMIA!" He declared as if he was speaking for the entire world.
I could hold back a smile from forming in my face. This guy was too good at giving such charged speeches. But if he thinks this is gonna make me forget about making Pony cry he is very, very mistaken. If I have to crack some skulls, I will. [6]
The world's greatest Hero sent a first bump as a goodbye and the projection ended.
I was about to say something about her worries being for nothing but my words never came out. A pair of hands pulled my jacket and smashed lips into mine, with such passion that I was too stunned to react.
But who needs to react in this situation? I just went with the flow.
(R-18 Scene Start – 3rd Person Pov)
Rick found himself on his back, and Pony on top of him, still kissing like no tomorrow. His hands explored her back like a map, until he reached two firm yet soft hills, and grabbed them instinctively.
"Aah!~" The girl broke the kiss as a moan escaped her mouth. She was going to say something about her sudden 'attack' when she felt something growing under her.
"A-Ah, Pony. I, uh… got a little too excited." He said with an awkward smile, feeling a bit embarrassed. "You were pretty wild back there."
Rick got only silence in return. He couldn't see her face as she was looking down and her hair acted like a curtain. He assumed the worst.
"Sorry if I… Maybe we should stop h-"
She immediately cut him off, "No! I-I mean… I don't…" She bit her bottom lip, gathering courage before saying "You know, Rick. I never really got to thank you for what you did there in the hero exam. Nor the school, and neither the date."
Before he argued about it she put a finger on his mouth, silencing him.
"You gave me so much, more than anyone ever did. You gave me friends, gave me compliments, gave me revenge, you gave me a boyfriend… I never felt so cherished."
"This time… I would like to give you something too." She took her jeans and top off, revealing a bikini, an AMERICAN flag bikini, "I-I wouldn't mind if we did… you know."
At that moment, diamond was not the hardest thing in the world.
Rick unequipped his clothes and only his boxers were left behind. He grabbed her hips and brought her on top of his lap, her legs crossing behind his own hip and locking them in place. He kissed her, exploring every nick of her mouth. Their private parts grinded against each other between their underwear. Her breaths became more and more haggard as he worked on her body.
She broke the kiss after losing almost all oxygen in her lungs from the exchange, leaving a trail of saliva connecting their tongues.
He pushed the blond on the bed flat on her back and went on top, creating a shadow over the girl. "Pony, I don't think I can hold back any longer." He said, his eyes burning in hunger.
"M-Me neither." She admitted.
In one swift motion, he took off her upper and lower bikini parts, revealing perfectly rounded perky boobs and plump ass, and a wet pink pussy.
Rick grabbed one boob with his right hand as he s*cked the other with voracity. His other hand rubbing her cunt.
So much between his fingers, yet firm enough so he could feel that firmness that allowed more rough messages. Her squirms only made him more eager to please her.
"Rick, I'm…aahh…I'm…HMmnf!~" A spray of love juice unleashed from her as she went limp from the orgasms, twitching here and there from time to time.
Rick took off his boxer and revealed his rod, standing tall as a tower. Pony gulped, wondering if that could even fit in her.
"I'm going in, Pony."
He positioned himself at her entrance and in a slow thrust he went fully inside. Both of them released a gasp at the feeling. Pony never thought she could feel that full. Even Rick had to hold back a little. He never knew girls could be so f*cking tight!
"Y-You can move now; I-I think." She said, taking heavy gulps of air.
Rick slowly thrust in and on, touching every corner of her cave, all the while playing with her tits. As she started becoming looser, he picked up his speed.
Pony crossed her legs around his hips like a pair of scissors, her nails digging on his back. Encouraging him to go even further. He stopped as he felt her vagina clench him tightly, she bit his shoulder in an attempt of trying to muffle a moan and failing miserably, all the while holding him like a koala to a tree.
Rick gave her a second to pick up her breath before he switched positions. He grabbed her ass and hold her as got up from the bed, the girl crossing her arms over his neck and legs on his pelvis as support.
He rocketed his tights as like a madman, pushing her closer to him to meet his thrusts, slamming into her like a wrecking ball.
She connected their mouths again as he worked her, making him feel her moans echoing in his throat. He picked up his pace even faster as his dick drilled her over and over again.
He clenched his teeth as he released a heavy payload inside her. Pony curved backward, her eyes rolling back and her tongue out as she had the strongest release in her life. Their orgasms stimulating each other even more. Only after half a minute it finally stopped.
He dropped them on the bed, his partner went limp beside him.
"Uff... Uff… That was amazing."
Pony only gave a tired nod in response, not able to even utter a word.
Rick was prideful seeing how he made her a mess, but he was also a bit bummed out at this. He still had more fuel for more rounds, while she was already spent.
He started understanding a little more why his family acted like they did, why his dad acted as he did. But he would not do the same mistake and let a bit of sexual frustration get him. There is always porn after all if it got worse.
He swallowed back his lust and brought her close to him for them to rest, not seeing her give a glance at his still erect d*ck with mixed feelings.
(R-18 Scene End – Rick's Pov)
I laid there with Pony in my arms under the blankets, staring at the ceiling.
Life has never felt so good.
What could go wrong?
"*Click* Sweetie, we are home!"
F*CK!
I immediately jumped off the bed and equipped my clothes back.
"Crap! Pony, your parents are here! We gotta clean this mess!"
She tried to get out of the bed, only to be stopped by an overwhelming soreness, she looked at him in panic. "I-I can't move my legs!"
Sh*t! Our previous 'workout' made her legs dead! What do I do?! Think, Rick. Think!
So many possibilities crossed so fast in my mind that I felt like Jimmy Neutron after he sniffed a whole drug shop.
EUREKA!
I grabbed her clothes thrown in the floor and helped her dress while telling her to put on an act when they came here, all the while storing her blankets and all the dirty stuff in my [Inventory] and searching through her wardrobe for clean ones with [Crit Boost Mode: 5x] to go even faster, regardless of the pain his nerves sent him.
As soon as I heard Pony's room door opening I threw myself at the open window, just in time.
I could hear a yell behind me as I fell with the [B.A.S.E. Jumper], gliding out of the window's camp of vision to not be spotted by Pony's dad.
After so many scores with Pony, I got a Home run. Both metaphorically and literally.
"HAHAHA!" I couldn't hold my laugher, noticing I just did my first sex escapade. I even got the blankets we did the dirty! This is like the best thing I'll ever have to tease her!
»»—-[☆]—-««
(3rd Person Pov – Pony).
Pony entered in panic after hearing her parents arriving home. She tried to get out of the bed, but her legs didn't respond!
'Oh no!' She screamed in her mind, already imagining her parents seeing her in such compromising sight.
Luckily, Rick started glowing, and like a blur, he took everything dirty by their… intimacy. Even helping her put on her clothes. He also told her to remember to try putting an act.
As soon as he was done he dived to the window, leaving just in time for him to dodge her dad bust through the door like a bulldozer.
"WHERE IS HE?! MY SENSES KNOW HE IS HERE!" Isamu yelled as he began opening her bathroom door and wardrobe trying to find her boyfriend. She would giggle a little if not for how close they were to being caught. She never sweated so much in her life… well, except a few minutes ago.
Another figure entered her room. It was her mom, "Honey! Your 'dad senses' don't exist! Look, Pony is alone and fine." She said as she attempted to hold her husband in place.
"My senses never failed me! I know he is here… somewhere." He resisted Sadie's attempt of calming him.
"Honey, you are scaring your daughter. Look." She turns to Pony, who was white from the adrenaline running in her veins.
Her dad stopped after seeing her, "Oh, I'm so sorry my cutie-pie." He went and hugged her.
"I-It's fine." She said, still tense by the whole situation.
He got out of her room and declared, "I will compensate by buying your favorite meal!" and closed her door behind him, leaving herself and her mom alone.
Sadie came forward and sat on her bed, looking straight at her.
"So… how was it?" She gushed with a small, knowing grin.
'SHE KNOWS?!' She cried out in her mind. "H-How?" The girl asked the woman.
"Please, sweetie." She pointed at her nose. "Your room stench of sex. So much that I'm surprised Isamu didn't notice. My [Horse] quirk is not for show either." Ms. Tsunotori revealed.
Pony hid her face with her hands. She never felt so embarrassed in her entire life. Talking about s*x with her parents are always so, SO AWKWARD.
The mom chuckled at her daughter completely mortified, one of the few joys of parenting. But she felt pity seeing her like that.
"Sweetie, I'm not here to judge you. I'm here to support you. Rick seems like a good boy, with a bright future ahead of him. I know your father is also impressed by him, he is just not ready for someone stealing you away from him." She said, her daughter hugging her.
"Thank you." The girl said to her mother, truly thankful for her understanding.
"It's nothing, dear. But next time, I recommend you doing elsewhere. It's a matter of time before our neighbors complain about a guy throwing himself out of the window."
Pony became a tomato from blush alone.
"Ah! and remember to use protection. I'm too young to have grandkids!" She berated her spawn.
"S-Stop! I understand, just please, let's change the subject." Pony begged her mother.
The adult put a hand on her chin and contemplated, "Fine. Hmm… How big wa-"
"MOM!"
"Pfftt…"
Sadie spent the rest of the night teasing her daughter, especially when Pony admitted she couldn't walk, gaining a new session of laughers.

Writing Notes:
[1] "Down and give me twenty!" – Soldier
[2] I almost put Rick and Morty there XD
[3] It's canon that Pony loves anime, even introducing class 1-B to them. She also loves apples, also cannon.
[4] Isamu means Brave in Japanese.
[5] I looked up to horse's name and picked from there. Since, you know… she got a horse-like quirk and all that.
[6] "If I have to crack some skulls, I will." - Soldier
Author Notes:
THIS WAS HARD!
Man, making an actual reasonable date, with consequences such as Pony's parents seeing her with the flowers and apple pie, the resulting parent's meeting, everything, took massive amounts of brainpower and sudden inspirations. I even re-read [An Insecure Violet] from fanfiction "dot" net for the parent's part.
Making the development of a serious relationship without making the characters seem unreasonable, massive sluts, or dumb is a challenge way bigger than I expected. I actually lost sleep coming up with all this. But it was worth it.
I'm proud to say that I made an actual believable date (even if somewhat cliché). If only I could repeat this in real life…
(I even researched how to improve my dialogues and stuff from other fanfics…)
Fortunately, of all harem members, only her and another one will require such a level of elaboration to make them enter into a relationship with MC. The Harem will probably have 4 members.
Normally I would make Pony and Rick's relationship slowly develop, but as I thought about all of the other girls it wouldn't work out great. It was better to make Pony become MC's girlfriend before U.A., and give more room for the others, who have more complicated personalities than her. It would also confuse readers if I didn't make this chapter for the reasons above, it would be too many relationships to track on. So I made this gigantic chapter all about her.
I also know how you guys wouldn't like it if I did like 3 chapters of just her and MC before U.A., so I rushed to get this over within just one. Hope it wasn't TOO rushed though.
For those who aren't really a fan of romance, hey, at least Rick learned a new trick he can use: [Tekkai]! He can harden his muscles to take more damage, or deliver heavier strikes. Pretty good, isn't it?
Did you guys like this chapter as much as I did? Tell me about it.
About the whole bullies thing, was it good, believable? I know that it was a bit out of realism and straight from a drama anime, but sometimes a little drama and ignoring the restriction of being realistic is good and cool. We all like a scene like that every now and then, right?
And my strategy on dealing with b*tches? Do you guys agree? I didn't even name that emerald-haired girl to show how much MC ignored them.
And about the U.A. Entrance Exam Ranking, let me explain it.
Why did Izuku get so little villain points even when he had [Full Cowl]?
Because his attitude didn't really change. He was still in his toxic middle school and bullied, and made the same mistakes in the anime such as being the last person to run to the practical exam after President Mic said "Begin!", freezing when facing the robots, stuff like this.
Why Pony is in the Top 10?
Because she saved Rick as Ochako did with Izuku. Plus, her training made her capable enough to get some villain points and more rescue points. Remember that Pony's pure and innocent personality and her quirk make her a better rescue hero than a fighter one. Her horns are more suitable to take people out of danger than robot destruction. But she was not good enough to contend with the likes of Ochaco whose quirk is strong enough to take multiple robots with a single touch.
Why Rick got more rescue points than Izuku?
Because the way he saved Pony was safer than Izuku and less self-harming. Izuku didn't rescue Ochaco first but jumped straight to the robot. Rick saved Pony first and then went to the robot, gaining a few more points (though he lost some by throwing Pony and going to the robot).
Izuku would have died if not for Ochaco saving him. Rick would have taken serious damage if not for Pony rescuing him, but he however had a parachute, and it was in his plan to use it, even if it failed in the end. Rick had a calculated recklessness, Izuku was pure life-or-death. Aizawa would give more points to Rick than Izuku.
That leaderboard at the end proved to be harder than I thought to do too. It's so hard to make those lines symmetrical, and it still has a bit messed up. If you saw it all messed up, try reading it on your computer or reduce the font size.
Also, I'm officially posting 1 chapter a week. These chapters take a lot of my time, and I constantly need to research stuff about MHA and adjust my plot and timeline by the sudden inspirations I have and the manga itself. It's not as simple as just writing this. I also have to re-watch some of MHA episodes and all that. I don't make things half-assed. Hell, this chapter has almost 12.5K words! That's like more than two long chapters of 5K, and near 5 times longer than the 2.5K ones you normally get in other fanfics! I think I made up for my late updates.
Making original characters and plots also takes a lot of time since I don't have the base the manga/anime gives me, making this chapter takes a lot of time to be done. Especially me since coming up with the original plot, character, personalities, and all that stuff is more exhausting than anything.
The next chapter is U.A., so I think you guys are gonna like it.
One question I have. Should I refer to Ochaco as [Ochaco] or [Ochako]? She had the latter one but later they changed to the former. I really don't know which one is best to use.
By the way, did you guys know that webnovel added a new feature that automatically deletes your comments if they have curse words (and some that are not even that)?
Yep, Webnovel is becoming more and more mercenary and censored as time goes by (they are a Chinese company so not really surprising but still).
So I motivate you all to screw with this system by using cursing words but with a * on some letter to not be deleted, like f*cking. Let's show them how useless it is and how nobody liked it.
(Btw, if this suddenly disappears it means these Webnovel mercenary Chineses took me down.)
I really wanted another fanfic website to exist but Wattpad is trash, royal road is too fancy for your casual fanfic, and fanfiction "dot" net is dying with its crappy system of searching and filtering fanfics (why don't you add a ranking system?! I used to like you ;-;).
We really need a decent website to match this one, but without the crap.
These are dark days, my fellow readers.
See you soon. :D
