Chapter 38: we got this!
"ugh! its so exhausting."
"i know and to top it all off the exam is a week from now."
"oh hey Momo-Chan! do you have your ultimate move yet?"
"no I'm afraid that will take time before I can bring it to full fruition. what about the rest of you?"
"I definitively made improvements with my Quirk! I can fight more effectively and frog like as well."
"oh and I took my quirk to new heights!"
"really Hagakure? but how?"
"what? do you think I can't get it done because my Quirk is simple?! you heard Izumi I have hidden potential!"
"well to be fair she actually just theorized that you had hidden potential." even thought Hagakure was invisible it became obvious quickly that she was pouting angirly at both Ashido and Asui.
"ok! ok! sorry, for all we know you might be like our lovable Ocha-Chan. she looks like a cinnamon roll but can actually kill you." Ashido then smirked at Uraraka but quickly noticed how she seemed to not only be lost in thought but also sad.
"... hey speaking of which, Uraraka? you ok? you look down."
"... hm... well... I can tell you guys a secret right?" Uraraka then blushed to everyone's confusion however Ashido then smirked again for she had a really good idea for what was going on with Uraraka.
"what? you mean the fact that your in love with Izumi?"
"Ah! sssh! ... why would you even say that?!"
"...well its not a secret Ocha-Chan."
"yeah everyone in Class 1-A knows."
"WHA?! HOW?!"
"oh yeah i guess we never told you. you see back during the exam there was a camera in the ally way where you and Bakugo talked so... we saw and heard everything." Uraraka then got completely red and covered her face out of overwhelming embarrassment but by doing so activated her quirk and she started floating in the air.
"aaaaah! this can't be happening!"
"uh... sorry Uraraka."
"but come on its not a bad thing we all have a thing for Izumi!"
"um, I wouldn't exactly say-"
"yeah like remember how Jiro said she wanted to marry Izumi?!"
"... didn't you say you almost accidently proposed to her?"
"uh guys."
"oh come on I was just kidding! you however seemed aggressively determined."
"aggressively determined? what's that supposed to mean?"
"guys"
"oh you know! how Yuri love is so cute but also spicy! I can see Izumi being the cute and you the spicy!"
"what the hell, Ashido!"
"what? its just something I read in manga and novels."
"guys seriously!"
"are you kidding me! ok first of all stop reading those romantic novels, they are bad for your mental health. second of all Lesbian love is like regular love! if Izumi like me great! if she doesn't well then that's that!"
"what seriously? your not gonna kiss her until she wants you?"
"oh my god, what is wrong with you!"
"GUYS!"
"WHAT?!" Asui then pointed to the celling and both Jiro and Ashido saw how Uraraka was still floating there but now she was no longer embarrassed and was now glaring at them with a dark and murderous aura.
"... ok sorry Jiro if anyone of us is aggressively determined about their love life its defiantly Ocha-Chan."
"yeah that seems about correct. I'm surprised she hasn't dropped down here and killed us already." Uraraka then thought of how much of a good idea that was and was about to release her quirk effects but then saw out the window that Izumi and Kirishima were training outside and she couldn't help but blush when she saw Izumi in a sports bra. but rather than panicking she instead just stayed quite while blushing is this really what I want she thought.
"alright! I'm ready bring it on!"
"got it! One for All: spark!" Izumi then rushed at Kirishima with 5% spark while he used his arms to defend himself while he activated his hardening quirk. she first punched him but when he recoil pushed her back she then went for a kick while mid air which forced them both back from each other. Kirishima was only pushed back a little but caused the dirt to upheave a little while Izumi just backflipped and landed on her feet, but she quickly lost her balance and landed on her butt.
"ow... ahem! ok, now you come at me!" Izumi then quickly got up and used her spark again but this time just stood in defense while Kirishima charged at her. he quickly hardened his fists and threw as many punches as he could at her with the full intent of speed over accuracy. he continued to miss while Izumi used her enhanced agility and speed to dodge every strike but then after a minute or so she jumped back, then toward Kirishima and then kicked his face to again push him back. Kirishima didn't harden his face in time and as such his nose started bleeding, but he just smiled with excitement.
"alright! now for the finally! you ready Izumi?!"
"hell yeah!" Izumi then activated Spark again and charged toward Kirishima while he charged at her.
"Red Riot: Unbreakable!"
"One for All: Strike!" they both then tried to punch the other and when their fists collided the force caused them both to feel the recoil and be pushed back into the ground. for a while they both just laid on the ground silently with their arms feeling numb from the recoil force, neither of them said anything but then they both started laughing.
"haha! ow! that was awesome!"
"haha! yeah I can't feel my hand!"
"oof! sorry Izumi! its not broken right?!"
"ugh, haha! no don't worry I'm-" as Izumi got up she looked at her fist and saw that her knuckles were bleeding again but right in front of her eyes they slowly healed.
"... fine."
"Izumi? you ok?"
"uh yeah sorry like I said my hand is numb but it will pass, how about you?"
"ugh... I think I know what its like for a building to be demolished. but on the bright side I think I'm getting faster, but hey what did you think of my ultimate move?!"
"it was awesome! I'm really looking forward to updating your section on my hero research books!" Kirishima then smiled and so did Izumi but as Kirishima left she then stopped smiled and then looked back to her knuckles in concern. that was unnatural Izumi thought is this those pills? but aren't the effects supposed to act slowly? this is way too quick... what's happening too me?
a week later of continuous training had finally lead to the day to the exam, all of class 1-A were outside the bus and right in front of the building entrance of the Provisional Licensing Exam where lots of other classes consisting of hundreds of students.
"oh man, can we even do this?! I'm freaking out!"
"Mineta! stop asking of you can and start saying that you can."
"uh... YES! I got this!"
"ahem! now as you all know this is the National Dagoba Arena..." Aizawa was then quiet, which confused all of Class 1-A but as the silence continued it turned quickly into concern and fear.
"uh... Aizawa?"
"...hm none of you interrupted me that's a nice change of pace, anyways this is the exam you've all been training for, after you get your hero license you'll become semi-pro heroes. only then will your true path to your hero carriers will being, so I expect the best from all of you, no exceptions."
"haha! alright this is gonna rock!"
"hey come on guys lets shout out the words of U.A.! on my mark go beyond! Plus-!"
"ULTRA!" all of class 1-A then turned to a student who was in the middle of all of class 1-A but was not a U.A. student.
"HUH? OH IT SEEMS I INTERUPTED YOUR YELLING OF ENCOURAGEMENT."
"... wha?"
"I AM SO VERY. EXTREAMLY. SORRY!" Yoarashi then bowed to Class 1-A but he lowed his head to the very ground and really quickly so that he practically headbutted the ground.
"what the hell?!"
"who is this guy?!"
"w- wait a minute, those uniforms. you guys are Shiketsu High?!"
"INDEED WE ARE, SORRY I JUST WANTED TO SAY PLUS ULTRA ONCE! YOU SEE I LOVE U.A HIGH. SO IT IS AN ABSOLUTE HONOR THAT WE WILL BE COMPETEING AGAINST EACH OTHER!" Yoarashi then put pack him cap and then bowed again and left with his classmate while his head was still bleeding.
"hm, that was Inasa Yoarashi, all of you listen up! that student was once one of the top recommended students of U.A. but he turned it down for unknown reasons. regardless he's powerful so watch out for him."
"wait so he got on the top of the recommendations list and he turned it down? but why?"
"it is indeed strange, after all he did just say that he loves our school."
"is that what you guys are worried about?! I'm more concerned for his sanity! I mean, who just hurts themselves so willingly and acts like it's ok." Sero and Iida then both looked at Izumi in disappointment.
"w- what? what did I say?" Izumi then got a slap on the cheek from Aizawa's scarf, and Aizawa was glaring at her with pure anger, but in return she just pouted in annoyance.
"hey! Eraserhead!" Aizawa's anger was quickly turned to fear when he heard the voice of Ms. Joke heading his way.
"well hello Shota! its been far to long that you and I have been separate! hey lets get married right now!"
"go die in a hole..." most of class 1-A was shocked at what they were seeing, not Aizawa insulting someone that was normal, but the fact that a woman appeared out of nowhere and wanted to marry him. Ashido on the other hand seemed super into it.
"haha! Aizawa has a secret love interest!" Izumi was starting at Ashido wondering how she came to that conclusion while Jiro was getting quickly annoyed.
"alright that's it! where are your romantic novels! I'm going to burn them all when we get back!" meanwhile Ms. Joke was still talking joyfully to Aizawa about marriage while he was glaring at her with an aura of dread.
"come on future husband! if we got hitched you're life would be filled with all smiles and joy!"
"that sounds like a literal hell."
"aw! your suck a kidder!"
"*sigh* anyways since your here that means your class is too right."
"yup! oh and right on time here they are! this is class 2 of Ketsubutsu Academy, my class!" As Ms. Joke had said so her class had arrived all of which seemed to light up when seeing that they were approaching U.A students. then one boy with black spiky hair walked up to Izumi and held both her hands in front of her which actually made her blush.
"hey I'm Shindo! seems like U.A. has had a lot of trouble this year must be rough right? but don't worry you guys are the best right?"
"uh, well I wouldn't-" Izumi was turning red and getting really nervous but then when Shindo smiled she was reminded of something and then turned to her dark form and then glared at him in disapointment. she then pulled her hands back and turned away from him.
"... thanks for your concern but for the record we don't need your pity." everyone in class 1-A was surprised to see Izumi being hostel to another student, even Aizawa was a little shaken by it. Izumi on the other hand continued to give Shindo the cold soldier but then she looked at him from the corner of her eye and saw that he was still smiling but there was anger in his eyes.
"Izumi what are you doing?"
"hey its ok! she's probably just not trusting after the disasters you guys have been though so she's justified. anyways I just wanted to say how much of an honor it is to finally meat the stars of U.A. in person! you guys are all amazing!" Shindo then continued to shake other hands from U.A. but was met with hostility once again once he reached Bakugo.
"knock it off, I can see it in your eyes, you look down on us don't you, you cocky shit." Kirishima and Sero were both quick to stop Bakugo from saying anything else and held him back in case he would start a fight. as such neither of them saw when Shindo glared at Bakugo furiously, but then when Kaminari tried to apologize Shindo turned back to normal. afterwards the Ketsubutsu class then left waving good bye to class U.A. but Bakugo and Izumi continued to show anger and distrust at them.
"tch, bastard."
"I'm gonna rip that asshole's head off."
"ok what's with you two?! its one thing when Bakugo's an asshole but Izumi too? that's just not normal!"
"is there anything normal about Izumi?"
"I've meet jerks like him before, they act all kind and nice but they will turn on you in a second, especially when it leads to more of their gain."
"yeah I had a few friends back at our old school who used to be just like him, they act like they'd take a bullet for you but would rather use you as a meat shield."
"oh come on you guys, I think your just being paranoid."
"besides even if it was like that, best case scenario is that he's just jealous I mean were practically celebrities." Izumi then noticed that Ms. Joke seemed shocked with what Kaminari said so blatantly.
"alright that's enough all of you go get into your hero costumes and enter the arena."
Aizawa was watching everything from the bleachers at first nothing was happening in the arena but then after some time the box finally opened showing all 15,000 students participating. while entering the bleachers all teachers were made aware that only 100 students would be allowed to pass the exam today, Aizawa did not mind because he was mostly confident his students would do well and even if they didn't that would just be a reminder of looking for different paths. obviously he didn't believe in all his students but as a teacher he had to at least act like he did, also if he could expel some of the students he would. Aizawa then looked into the crowd to see if he could find his class and sure enough they were in the very Middle of everyone and in the middle of Class 1-A was Izumi who was looking around in concern.
ugh, I'll never understand why that idiot picked her as his successor, he claims she was a pure and determined girl but she really didn't give off the best first impressions. regardless if she's improving, I would have had her expelled and replaced by Togata as All Might's successor if I had the call, but instead I'm stuck with having to teacher her to being the very best... and it sucks. Izumi continued to look around her but then focused her vision on the stands and made eye contact with Aizawa, she then quickly waved to him which actually suprised him and then she pointed to Mera and stated mouthing something to him. at first he couldn't make out what she was saying but then he could read on her lips are you related? Aizawa then looked at Mera in confusion and saw how depressed, sleepy, and pathetic he looked which quickly aggravated Aizawa due to how Izumi referred to the both of them as possibly being related. Aizawa then saw how Izumi smirked and then quickly looked away which only aggravated him even more. grrr! the first time we meet she could barely work the courage to look me in the eyes and now she's making fun of me every chance she gets! I read the reports of her old school calling her a delinquent and low life but I thought they only said that because of that schools low status and lacking education but now I see there was some truth to it.
"Pfft! Eraserhead your fly is down!" Aizawa then lost all of his colors due to an overwhelming amount of rage but rather than exploding he just lost the will to care at this point. that loud mouth always asks me why I hate everyone... its because no one respects discipline and silence like I do.
"I can't belive you still have all 20 students! you must really like this bunch!"
"no not really, last year I was stuck with a class full of delinquents and talentless wannabes so I expelled them all, Principle Nezu wasn't pleased with my decision and revoked my expulsion authority so now I'm not aloud to expel any of my students without the rat's ok."
"Rat? I thought he was a dog."
"regardless he got rid of my expulsion authority so now I'm stuck with these idiots. only about two of them are actually worthy of being heroes, five tops."
"wow you really don't like your class at all do you?"
"of course not, half of them are just in it for the fame and glory while the rest can barely even be called actually heroes in training. Mineta is a pervert with a worthless quirk, Koda is a coward who likes to think of himself as a pacifist, Uraraka would be better off as a model rather than a hero, Bakugo is no better than a delinquent, Yaoyoruzu is so mentally weak, Todoroki has too many personal issues, Hagakure's quirk is practically stupid, Ojiro's no better than a monkey, Aoyama is... weird, and then there's Izumi the most infuriating pain in my neck. a brat like her should have never been given the chance to become a hero yet she got it anyways. their all terrible examples of the future and Nezu was wrong for not allowing me to not expell them."
"hm I see, so is that why you didn't warn them?"
"yes, because every single one of them deserve to fail." just then the announcement came up that the test had begun and just like that Ketsubutsu and other school classes surrounded UA class 1-A and started attacking with seemlingly no way for class 1-A to escape.
"or at least that's what I would have said if it were true." just then Izumi used Strike to kick the balls back at Ketsubutsu while Uraraka floated in the air and dodged them all, Ashido used her acid fountain to get rid of them, Tokoyami used dark shadow to take them, Sero used his tape to catch them, and Mineta used a chain of his sticky balls to get a lot of them and lastly Yaoyorozu made sheild to defend those of Class 1-A who didn't have enough time to dodge or use their quriks. Ms. Joke was suprised to see them all managed to deflect the attack so well and will some new moves that she had not seen on the U.A. sports festival.
"this class of mine is full of brats, but in then end their still kids, and if there's one thing kids are good for its learning and adapting. both of which are core requirements to make a pro hero, that's why I didn't tell any of them about the annual crushing of the U.A. classes. because if they can learn that on their own and adapt to make up for their well known weaknesses then that means their ready to become pro heroes." I actually didn't tell them because I forgot Aizawa thought but she doesn't need to know that.
"wow, that's actually really smart of you Shota, not that I doubted your brain power, I just never thought you would pull of such a trick as to make your students stronger."
"its not the first time I tricked those brats, so obviously they should be used to it by now."
"what?!"
"how did they do that?!"
"wasn't Mineta's quirk supposed to be stupid?!"
"what about Uraraka? how was she able to float so perfectly?!"
"and I thought Yaoyorozu sucked at using her quirk!"
"get a grip all of you, they obviously trained their guts out in order to make up for their short comings at the Sports festival, I'll be honest I wasn't expecting it either, but that's not reason to lose hope, we still out number them and they know nothing about our quirks."
"exactly, but still we can't seem to hit them no matter what we do."
"don't worry my preperations are complete! hey Itejiro! make these count!" Makabe then tossed his quirk enhanced throwing balls to Tokeki.
"who do you think your talking to? I can take anyone out with elegant precision, just don't hold it against me when I pass before the rest of you." Tokei then threw the balls and they indeed went straight for Class 1-A but they also dug underground.
"oh crap! quickly! we need someone who can stop projectiles!"
"leave it to me! Amplifier Jack: Heartbeat distortion!" Jiro then pressed her sound amplifying gloves to the ground causing it to rupture and even break apart and causing some of the Ketsubutsu students to scatter.
"impressive U.A.! not that it matters!" the balls then rose from the ground and were heading straight for Mineta however, Ashido then quickly saved him with her Acid Veil move.
"damn it! we're still not getting anywhere!"
"what the hell is going on! U.A.s normally not this prepared when it comes to the Licensing exam! at least one of them should have failed by now!"
"sorry to disapoint! but now its our turn! Black Abyss: Piercing Twilight claws!" since dark shadow had managed to get some of the balls while midair he used them to get a direct attack on the Ketsubutsu students, but when Dark Shadow hit one of the students all that was left of her was her legs which made everyone all of Class 1-A to lose their colors out of pure horror.
"OH MY GOD DARK SHADOW KILLED HER!" but then her face popped out and then her body started reverting back to normal.
"oh wait no that's just her quirk, she can suck into her own body... gross." hmmm! so many different quirks in action! Izumi thought I want to write them all down, but I can't lose focus right now! we have to beat these guys and pass! but how do we even do that? they know a lot about us but we know barely anything about them! we just have to stay together and keep our defence up so that they can't get us.
"alright this is getting annoying, everyone stand back I'm gonna fix this! Maximum Force: Tremoring Earth!" Izumi was not sure what just happened in one second the ground shot up in the air and the next she blacked out and now she was on the ground and in a lot of pain.
"ugh... not good we all got separated." Izumi quickly got up and checked her surroundings, she had no allies but luckily no enemies either. Izumi then walked around trying to see if she could find anyone while also making sure not to get caught by other students. she wasn't sure which direction to go but she just knew she had to keep moving or else someone was going to find her. Izumi then noticed how quiet the area was and started to relax knowing that most likely not much to worry about at the moment but then she felt a presence near her and quickly activated Spark and jumped up into the air. sure enough some one tried to rush her from the back it was a girl from Shiketsu High but she quickly turned around and threw a ball at Izumi. Izumi was still midair and couldn't make a proper dodge or deflection and as such she got hit. what the hell?! she managed to not only make a perfect throw at a small target but do it after a quick 180 degree turn and that was before she rushed foward in high speed at a missed target?! who is she?! her reflexes and accuracy are amazing!
Izumi then landed on her feet in front of Camie and thanks to her surprise attack Izumi now had a ball in hand but unfortunately Camie still had another.
"so your the kid from U.A. huh? I heard you saved a little boy back at the Summer training camp incident." Izumi now looked at Camie in confusion wondering where she was going with this.
"I've heard that the coolest boy and the cutest girl in U.A. Class 1-A had only one thing in common and it's that they both have a scar on their face. I was hoping I'd run into the boy but in all honestly I think I like what I'm looking at right now." Izumi couldn't help but blush in embarrassment form her statement but then she shook her head however this proved to be a grave mistake for in a split second Camie charged at Izumi again and was deadly close to hitting another target but Izumi was ready this time and used Spark to get away from her, after jumping back she was about to hit with a Strike but stopped when she saw that Camie was gone. she looked around and saw Camie about to hit another target so she quickly activated Spark again and only managed to barely get away this time. Izumi then tried again to Strike but again Camie was gone however Izumi knew better to stay still and continued to use spark to jump around trying to look everywhere and pinpoint where Camie was. Izumi was sure that Camie would not be able to catch her while she was using her spark, however she was quickly proven wrong.
"caught you!" Camie jumped out from a rock and then pinned Izumi to the ground and had her arms behind her back.
"damn it! how?!"
"interested huh? well why not, it's not a quirk if that's what your thinking. it's just a technique I developed, I can make my presence undetectable by holding my breath and limiting the amount of steps I make when moving around. pretty cool huh?" Camie was now pressing her body onto Izumi's back which was making her blush redder than a tomato.
"there I told you something about myself now can you tell me more about you? I've only known your for about two minutes... and I'm already falling for you." Izumi was loosing focus to because of all the embarrassment but then she tried to put her focus back on why she was here and why she wanted to be a hero. now she was starting to get mad and it forced her to turn to her dark form and she used it to her advantage by not only activating Spark at 10% but also having her hand aim for Camie's stomach.
"One for All: Shot!" Izumi then flicked Camie's stomach which flung her off of Izumi and made her roll on the ground in pain. Izumi on the other hand quickly got up and stood tall against Camie.
"look I don't know who you are but your really starting to piss me off." wow! I normally don't feel this powerful, If anything I didn't like using higher percentages because they exhausted me so quickly but now I feel incredible! is this another benefit of the pills? geez All Might are you sure you didn't give me some new steroids' or something?
"ouchies! hurting a beautiful girl is really low even if another girl does it. actually its kind of a turn on!"
"if you don't cut that out I'm gonna seriously make you regret it!"
"aw! is master going to hit his pet again." Izumi then threw the ball and it hit one Camie's targets.
"wow, you look awful in that form but your so cold and bad now... I like it." Camie then charged at Izumi again, Izumi was surprised that Camie could move so fast despite being hit in the stomach but put it off and threw a Strike at her. Camie then managed to dodge it which suck speed and then got up to Izumi and scored another target. Izumi dodged too late and only managed to gain distance after her target was hit, Camie smiled at first but then saw that Izumi was holding the ball now and looked at her suit and noticed she lost a target as well.
"not bad, but don't think your out of the woods yet, all I have to do it get the ball and get that last target." Camie then charged at Izumi again.
"One for All: Chop!" Izumi then made a chop toward the ground not only making a large clean cut in-between Izumi and Camie but also causing the ground bellow Camie to shake making her lose her balance and stop her from attacking.
"I see so you do have limitations on your reflexes so then your quirk has ether little or absolutely nothing to do with athleticism either." Camie looked aggravated knowing that she was the one being examined now, Camie then started fliping toward Izumi as to keep her off aim but this proved to be ineffective against Izumi. Izumi then used a Strike to attack causing Camie to fly back into a wall, Izumi then used Spark to rush toward her while she was hurt and hit another target, Now Camie had two hit targets and so did Izumi. Izumi then quickly jumped off of the wall and landed away from Camie but then her muscles started feeling strained so she quickly turned off spark. are you kidding me?! I was only using 15%! that used to be childs play in dark form but now its like holding my breath in cold water! god this sucks!
Camie was now on the ground but like a corpse that came back to life she started limping herself back up and then finally stood straight as if she was never hurt in the first place. Izumi was now slightly disturbed at this but also slightly curios, she wondered if this had anything to do with her quirk or if it was another one of her bizare techniques. before any questions could be answered a spider web like wall then blasted from the ground, then several other combatant students showed up. becuase of their different costumes Izumi's eyes started to sparkle, she wanted to open her hero research books and start asking as many questions as she could but she quickly slapped her cheeks to snap out of it, focused on her frustration, and activated spark again. in an instant she was attacked with ball projectiles and the effects of the multiple quirks and did her best to dodge them all managing to escape their grasp by mere seconds.
"Izumi!"
"huh?" Izumi then saw Uraraka on one of the stone pillars telling her to come her way, unfortunately the other students saw her and started attacking her with all thier quirks. Uraraka then fell off the Pillar so Izumi, who managed to dodge the remaining quirk attacks, and rushed toward Uraraka and catch her before she fell, Izumi then used a Strike to hit the rock pillar not only cutting the other student's off of her trail but also caused some of them to fall into the rubble. after some time Izumi found a rock that would make nice over and hid behind it and finally put Uraraka down.
"ok I think we lost them."
"I'm sorry Izumi, I really didn't do much back there."
"... Don't worry about it Uravity, you were surrounded so its not your fault." Izumi then turned to Uraraka and smiled, even thought she was in her dark form Uraraka couldn't help but blush. but then she looked at the ball in Izumi's hand and was about to grab it so she could hit Izumi's final target, but then Izumi turned back to Uraraka and then punched her in the stomach with a strike. the force caused Uraraka to be pushed into a stone wall and it even cracked from the force.
"ahem! *male voice* HEY! I FOUND A U.A. BRAT! I NEED BACKUP!" Izumi then smirked at Uraraka who was now glaring at her in pain but then a large rock fell on top of Uraraka's head smashing her healmet into her face. Izumi lost all her colors in an instant, she knew it was an imposter but that was no reason for them to get badly hurt, regardless Izumi let others know of her location so she couldn't stay. after using Spark to get out of there she stopped after a certain distance and rested on a rock.
"*female voice* haaa, I hope who ever that was isn't hurt too badly."
"aw are you worried about me?" Izumi heart skipped a beat out of pure fear as she turned to her right and saw the fake Uraraka standing there, smiling while glass shards of her helmet were stabbed into her face. the sight made Izumi's blood run cold out of pure terror of course this wasn't the most terrifying thing she ever saw but still scared her none the less.
"wha- what?! how did you-! oh I see so that's your quirk, your a shapeshifter."
"hm? you figured out it was me? well that's to be expected at this point."
"no I new from the start, you act nothing like the Uraraka I know, especially since you didn't get mad at me when I called you Uravity."
"... huh your really smart, is what I would say, but I really gotta ask, why did you rescue me if you knew I was a fake?"
"I just panicked, also a fall from that height would have given you some serious damage although from the looks of it you could have handled it pretty well." the fake Uraraka then smiled as she started to melt into a white like stance, meanwhile Izumi got into a fighting stance. after all the white slugged melted away it revild Camie who was practically naked with the only thing covering her was a thin layer of the white slime. Izumi couldn't help but blush at the sight but was able to not get distracted due to her irritation toward Camie. Camie then rushed at Izumi and scratched her face but Izumi attacked back with a Strike kick at Camie's head causing her to be pushed back and her head even wobbled in an unhumanly way, which scared Izumi making her think she killed Camie but when she fell to the ground she got back up and fixed her head position.
"how are you doing that? is that because of your shapeshifting capabilities, I've done research and have heard of shapeshifters who even managed to survive having their heads torn off. is that a technique of yours perhaps one that actually relates to your quirk."
"hm. not a technique no, it's just that I can't really get hurt when I'm in another form, but of course it would still be better to not get hurt since the more damage I get the less time I have to maintain said form."
"hm, strange I assumed that form your in right now was your original form, are you saying its not."
"oh dear accidently let that one slip but if your the only one who knows my secret then its fine, anyways yes your right this isn't my real form I just use it because its beautiful." Camie then made a sexy pose which made Izumi's nose bleed.
"oooh! like what you see? come on, let me show you more!" Camie then charged at Izumi but this time she was ready and activated another Strike. but before either of them could make a move, a stream of tape got in-between them both halting their attacks.
"Izumi! what's this enviable situation your in?!"
"I wouldn't call it enviable but I'm glad your here." Uraraka then appeared from behind Sero, floated up in the air and then dived down to strike Camie but she managed to slip away and acrobat her way onto another pillar.
"aw! why did you guys have to interupt us, oh well I suppose the fun had to end at some point. regardless I really taken a liking to you so I think we'll meet again, for now I just need to pass this stupid exam." just then the announcement came that Camie was disqualified from phase 1 of the exam.
"w- what? why?!" the announcement then continued stating that she was disqualified because she took off her targets and hid them therefore technically cheating.
"hm, oh well didn't want to be a hero anyways I already got what I came for so see ya!" Camie then dashed out of sight leaving the three of them confused.
"wait she doesn't want to be a hero? then what was the point of coming here or even joining Shiketsu in the first place?"
"she said she wanted to meet either me or Shoto something about admiring us or something?"
"then why not just come by U.A. and ask for an autograph, its kinda dumb to go through all that effort just to meet some people."
"hm, she's weird but from what I know about people with shapeshifting quirk, they tend to have twisted and distorted personalities."
"uh hey so uh does that explain was she naked when you were fighting here?" Izumi looked at Sero with disappointment, while Uraraka glared at him, but then she just sighed and explained the everything that had happened up until this point.
"huh so that babe was able to turn into other people and wear the clothes they were wearing, weird."
"... weirder than dispensing tape from your elbows?" Sero then looked at Izumi in confusion but also seemed a little hurt.
"what? I just- why does everyone keep acting like things like that are abnormal? we live in a world where 80% of the world population has a quirk! how is anything still normal?"
"well yeah but normal still exists because no body has a ridiculous quirk like Magic god, reality change, or every quirk in exsistance." Izumi got chills hearing that because it reminded her of All for One and that was a person that she absolutely despised more than anything so even hearing about him made her upset. but then she realized there was a chance that it wasn't a coincidence that Sero made a quirk name so similar to All for One so she cautiously backed away from Uraraka and Sero.
"um speaking of which you guys are you right?"
"huh? what do you mean?"
"I uh... ok Cellophane tell me something only you and me would know."
"oh uh ok, uh... oh! one time after school you asked me to see how far my tape would long it could be so you grabbed one end of the tape and I stood still while you rolled it out but then after a while my arm got stiff so I moved it but by accident the tape cut and it all came at you like a sling shot and we spend the next hour trying to get you out of the tape."
"ok that checks out, Uraraka you too!"
"oh uh... one time you got upset when I asked you about your bra size so in order to make up for it you asked me to see how long I could float in the air but this was before the intense training so after floating in the air for a long time I accidently barfed on you."
"ok that checks out too you guys are good."
"uh, seriously? gross Uraraka, also why would you ask Izumi her bra size... not it isn't a reasonable question."
"Cellophane I'm still standing right here."
"I think the better question is, why did you need us to confirm our identities Deku?"
"well uh you know how that weird girl had shapeshifting powers? she shape shifted into a perfect replica of you Ocha-Chan."
"wha?!"
"wait seriously! was she naked in that form too!?"
"why is that the first thing you chose to focus on? ok never mind I just wanted to be sure you guys we're real, so now we are a trio so that will make it easier to not only defend ourselves but to also score some points."
"yeah but shouldn't we try to find the others first, you know bigger numbers, stronger advantage."
"sure but we don't know where they are and people are dropping like flies!" both Uraraka and Sero looked concerned on their situation, Izumi agreed with them both however it was true that this was not going to be an easy task. Izumi was trying to think up a good plan where they could get a large amount of points but then she looked at both Sero and Uraraka's visors and saw that she was still in her dark form. sure her dark form helped her get a better grip on All for One, but right now she needed to help her friends however that was easier said than done since she was still irritated by Camie and her anger wouldn't go away easily. so instead, Izumi just took a deep breath and then tried to focus on things that made her happy. at first she thought about her extensive quirk reaserch but that didn't help when she remembered all the different quirks she saw today and couldn't record, so instead she thought about her hero All Might and her mom. thinking about them both made her heart feel warm and calm she even cried a single tear of joy. Izumi then pounded her chest proudly and smiled at both Uraraka and Sero, as to get their attention.
"don't worry guys we got this! no matter what! we are becoming pro hero's today!"
"uh... ok! no matter what!"
"yeah! we are becoming pro hero's today!" Izumi smiled in pride at first but then a thought occurred to her Hm... I kinda ripped that off of the TO BECONE A BETTER HERO thing I had with the others... well its not like I betrayed them or anything plus I just wanted to boost Uraraka and Sero's moral so I'm sure they won't mind. just then Yaoyorozu, Iida, Todoroki, Ashido, and Kirishima all suddenly had a feeling of irritation but none of them were sure why.
OH MY GOD I GOT IT DONE! ugh! this has been the shittiest month of the shittiest year! sorry for my foul language but I really had to get that out. originally I was about to make chapters so fast and produce them so early was because I had my computer but then it BROKE! I don't even know what happened! I just opened it one day and the screen cracked! then when I tried to fix it it got worse! so yeah I now had to use my phone to write until my computer is fixed and IT &$#%ING SUCKS! ugh. anyways sorry guys I really wanted to write two chapters this month but I barely even got this one out, man this really has been a garbage year.
