Edit: A/N: Ooops! Almost forgot! 70,000 hits! YAY! I'm so happy! Enjoy the chapter, unsure about one of the Aizawa exams... but remember fights is one of my weaknesses...
Chapter 31: Practically Good
Izuku had went to the control room where the footage of all of the exams would be shown. Recovery Girl was also watching in case someone got injured.
The doors opened and Izuku was surprised that Ochaco entered.
"Oh Ochaco…" said Izuku surprised.
"I guess I shouldn't be surprised that you're here." Said Ochaco.
"Yeah… I don't want to work with him and he doesn't want to work with me." Said Izuku.
"Yeah that does make sense." Said Ochaco.
"What about your partner?" asked Izuku .
Ochaco was partnered up with Aoyama.
"Well he's a bit preoccupied at the moment." Said Ochaco.
He was busy checking out his reflection. Izuku sweat dropped when she told him that.
Especially since he knew a couple guys like that in his past life…
"I figured that I should learn from the other exams." Said Ochaco.
"Yeah." Said Izuku.
She looked at him and started blushing profusely.
"Hey are you okay?" asked Izuku.
"I'm fine! I'm really really…" she said fiddling with her fingers.
Izuku looked at her. And realized it was another personality shift.
"Have your personality shifts been getting worse?" asked Izuku.
"Oh not really…" said Ochaco.
Izuku sighed when he said that, while his happened multiple times a day, he understood why. His and Sanji's personalities were almost complete opposites. The would have such different reactions and sometimes Sanji's would be first or it was just it asserting itself for some reason.
But the others had a sort of Zen, the personalities got along. Toru he noticed would be a bit more hyper at times and Momo would become more stern and forceful.
But really Ochaco it happened very rarely, and he was getting worried.
But he knew he had to worry about that later. The first exam was starting, it was Kirishima and Sato against Cementoss.
Both of them had super strength with Sato eating sugar and becoming super strong while Kirishima had hardening, but both of them had time limits and Cementoss didn't. So he was able to beat the two super quickly and they had failed.
Recovery girl had sighed as she knew she had to tend to them.
"They lost so quickly." Said Ochaco.
"I know." Sighed Izuku, "They're pairing us up against the ones we'll have the hardest time against."
"Not you though." Said Ochaco.
"I have to talk to Hibiki about everything after mine." Sighed Izuku, "Because it's clear he wasn't the first choice for who I had to up against."
Soon enough the next one began, which was Tsuyu and Tokoyami.
They were up against Ectoplasm, a teacher had could create ectoplasm based duplicates of himself.
They were doing well at first, but then he created a giant clone of himself that trapped the two, thankfully Tsuyu had a plan to capture him using the cuffs (she put it in her stomach… best not to think about it), with the two passing the exam.
The third exam was Mashirao and Iida against Power Loader. However Power Loader could easily tunnel through the ground.
"I got this! You just run to the exit." Said Mashirao.
"Are you sure you can handle it?" asked Iida.
"I didn't use it against Stain because I didn't cause too much damage." Said Mashirao.
"Is this…" said Iida.
"No it's not that move." Said Mashirao, "It's something else."
Power Loader was headed right towards them.
Mashirao jumped towards the ground before him.
"Bakusai Tenketsu!" he called out as the ground exploded.
Power Loader had to escape the tunnels he was creating.
"What the!" he said, "How were you able to do that…"
"Just something I learned a long time ago." Said Mashirao.
"I should have expected when I told I was facing one of the Incarnations." Sighed Power Loader.
Iida knew he had to run towards the exit. Which did while Power Loader was distracted by Mashirao.
It was somewhat difficult as there were a few traps he had set before Mashirao destroyed the tunnel he was in.
Meanwhile Power Loader wasn't sure what to do. He was expecting to just fight against two students.
However he quickly realized something.
The school probably never gauged the abilities of their past lives.
"Great…" he thought.
He decided to wing it and threw a rock at him… it was a big rock.
But it didn't work and Mashirao just broke it apart with a single touch of his finger.
However as he was distracted he didn't really notice Iida cross the gate.
"All right!" cheered Mashirao.
Power Loader sighed, "We didn't gauge your abilities…" admitted Power Loader, "I was really unprepared for what you could do."
In the monitor room, both Izuku and Ochaco were happy for their friends.
However Recovery Girl was sighing.
As she realized the same as Power Loader.
"You weren't even any sort of test to gauge your abilities, were you?" asked Recovery Girl.
"No there wasn't." said Ochaco.
Recovery Girl sighed at this.
"I wonder if your exams will be affected because they didn't factor any of your abilities in." said Recovery Girl.
"Oh I already figured that Momo and Todoroki's test would be incredibly lopsided from the start." Said Izuku.
Both Recovery Girl and Ochaco looked at Izuku who sweat dropped.
"I trained with Momo before the Sports Festival… and I know if given enough prep time she'll be able to make enough weapons to fend off Aizawa." Said Izuku.
"Izuku what are you hiding?" asked Ochaco.
"Um…" said Izuku, "Well their test is next… and you'll see…"
"What did she do…" thought Ochaco who began to sweat.
With Momo and Todoroki, their test has started.
"Do you have a plan?" asked Todoroki
Momo nodded.
"I plan to distract him." Said Momo, "While you pass the test. Either cuffing him or running to the exit."
"Are you sure you can handle it?" asked Todoroki.
As he asked that, she had created a pair of gauntlets which she didn't put on yet and a very large backpack.
"As long as he's not nearby I can make as many weapons I need." Said Momo created a large sword which put in to the backpack.
"Is that a good idea?" asked Todoroki as Momo created a naginata.
"It's fine. I ate an extremally large breakfast, and Toru gave me plate maple bacon cupcake with extra creamy frosting this morning." Said Momo as she created a medium sized sword.
"Are you sure you can take him alone?" asked Todoroki as she created a smaller sword and placed it in the bag.
"I hope so…" said Momo as she same and identical smaller sword, making it clear that it was to be used in a pair.
"I had my plan." Said Todoroki as she created a battle axe, "But I forgot to take into account that you're a reincarnation."
Momo sighed as she created a large spear.
"I mean we're both aware that Midoriya is extremely strong." Said Todoroki as she created a katana.
"And I'm not as strong as he is." Said Momo as she created a halberd, "But I try."
"How strong were you were in your past life?" asked Todoroki as she created glaive.
"I was considered one of the strongest mages in Fiore." Said Momo as she created a long sword then remembered something, "That was the country I lived in was called."
"I see." Said Todoroki as she created a pike.
"But I still retained my weapon knowledge and the strength I had in my past life." Said Momo as she created a sabre.
"Wait… you never mentioned strength." Said Todoroki as she created a lance.
"Well I haven't really hadn't the chance to show it off." Said Momo as she created a different kind of battle axe.
Todoroki looked at the large bag that was just filled with weapons. She added third type of battle axe to it.
"I think that might be enough." Said Momo as she put in one last sword, this time a broad sword.
"Are you sure you can lift that?" asked Todoroki.
She grabbed the backpack like it was nothing, causing Todoroki to sweat.
She then put on the gauntlets she made.
"Are you ready?" asked Momo.
Todoroki just nodded. Not sure how to respond to everything.
In the Monitor Room, both Recovery Girl and Ochaco stared at Momo lift the large bag full of weapons like it was nothing.
"Really the only thing I'm worried about is if Aizawa might be able to fight her back. After all, he is a pro hero." Said Izuku.
"Izuku…" said Ochaco touching his shoulder, "We both know that's probably going to beat him."
"I know." sighed Izuku who was acactully feeling kind of bad for their teacher.
Rockery Girl was just messaging a headache.
"We made a mistake when you regained your past life memories." Sighed Recovery Girl.
Back with the exam.
The two students began to search for their homeroom teacher.
Momo notice he was carrying a small flame in his hand.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"It's something to test if he's here." Said Todoroki, "My plan was actually something similar to what you had in mind with our roles reversed… but… the more I think about it…"
"The more my plan makes sense." Said Momo.
"You know how to fight without a quirk." Said Todoroki, "Honestly I should have known."
"You did fight with Toru and Mashirao." Said Momo, "And everything with Izuku."
Todoroki nodded.
"Remember there's a price to these skills." Said Momo.
"I know." Said Todoroki, "But you still landed on your feet… when so many heroes…"
That was when they saw the flame went out.
"He's here." Said Momo.
They looked around and looked up seeing Aizawa was hanging upside down from some powerlines.
He wanted to say something, about being more aware of their surroundings.
However hos words died when he saw her carrying giant bag of weapons.
A giant bag that she let fall to the ground that broke the concrete when it landed.
Hibiki's words of warning echoed in his mind.
"Are you sure that's a good idea, Momo does fight quirk-less. And if given the proper prep time she might be able to get the jump on you."
Momo grabbed the smallest of the three battle axes and aimed and attack at him. The axe missing near inches from his head, cutting a few strands of hair away.
He could tell that that was something of a warning shot.
He looked at the girl in front of him, her eyes and body language, they weren't that of a student, they were that of a battle hardened warrior who had been through years of fighting.
His eye twitched.
"I should have listened to him." Said Aizawa to himself.
Meanwhile in the training grounds that Hibiki was using for his test.
"Huh…" said Hibiki.
"What is it?" asked Aiko.
"I just felt a strange sense of smug satisfaction that I can't explain." Said Hibiki.
"Eh… whatever." Said Aiko.
Back with the test. Aizawa knew he had to be on his toes. And he was the third one to come to the realization.
They never gaged their past life abilities, the only two that they really gaged were Izuku and Toru, but that was only because of how far Izuku got in the Sport Festival and Toru was very open about her strange new reality warping abilities that even she didn't understand.
He had to dodge another axe attack from his battle hardened student.
However he was getting used to her movements.
"There should be an opening." He thought.
However even Momo even noticed that tossed the axe at him which he dodged, and she grabbed the twin swords she created.
And it wasn't just using her swords, that managed to use her legs for kicking.
"You're far more skilled than I thought." Said Aizawa.
She kept quiet, not really in the mood for bantering.
She instead focused on the fight, instead, and once he got two used to the fighting style, she threw one of the sword at his capture scarf, embedding a piece of it in a nearby wall.
He gritted his teeth.
Both of them knew that it wouldn't distract him for long.
But it was just enough time for her to fetch the glaive from the bag.
He removed the sword from the scarf, but had to dodge the glaive attack.
However he got an idea to finally stop her attacks. He aimed his scarf which was capture weapon at her hand hands her tying her to the glaive.
"I'm sorry but you made a mistake." Said Momo.
Aizawa's eyes widened ed as he realized what she did.
If she could lift a bag full of weapons that made a small crater when dropped, she was strong enough to resist him.
Or use the capture weapon against him.
She used the capture weapon ro pull him close to her.
Aizawa gritted his teeth waiting for the next move.
Only to notice too late that Todoroki approached him from behind and slapped on the cuffs.
"What." Said Aizawa.
"You were preoccupied with me, you forgot about him." Said Momo, "You're supposed to be a pro…"
"I completely underestimated you." Said Aizawa.
"ISs this about the Sport Festival." Said Momo.
Aizawa didn't answer.
"I gave up because of other reasons." Said Momo, "I could have beaten Bakugo. But I didn't for a number of reasons."
Both Todoroki and Aizawa looked at her and realizes it might have something to do with the fact she more than likely knew about the bullying before everyone else.
However at the same time, he also knew he really shouldn't have underestimated her, he had heard stories about the heroes that remained so more often than not gained at least one impressive skill or ability.
He had been warned, he had known that she had the memories of an adult and had admitted before that she knew how to use a multitude of weapons. He had even seen her fight in the tournament but…
"I've only been able to fight with full strength with only one person before you." Said Momo.
"Midoriya." Said Aizawa.
Momo nodded.
Aizawa sighed, "I won't make the same mistake." He said getting the feeling that the other teachers might under estimate the other reincarnated students.
"Good." Said Momo.
Momo and Todoroki both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sorry I had you do that." Said Momo.
"It's fine…" admitted Todoroki.
Momo nodded at him with a smile.
And with that the two passed their exam.
However, there were still other exams to go through, and hopefully the other students wouldn't be like Kirishima and Sato and fail… so who knew what was going to happen. Only time will tell.
Next Time: The practical continues, will more of their class mates pass or fail... And will teachers continue to under estimate the reincarnated students. What will happen? Find out next time!
