A/N: There are a few changes in the chapter... but I admit I didn't change much... mostly because most of it I couldn't change. But there are few changes don't worry.
Chapter 32: All But the Last
In the Montoro room Ochaco was leaving, as it was time for exam.
"Good luck!" said Izuku.
"Thanks!" she said blushing profusely and fiddling her fingers, "I'm sure it will be fine."
"Ochaco…" said Izuku.
"Oh another personality shift?" sked Ochaco snapping out of it.
"That's the second one today." Said Izuku.
"I'm fine… really!" said Ochaco.
"Ochaco…" said Izuku.
"I'll talk to Hibiki about it later." Said Ochaco.
"Good." Said Izuku.
Ochaco left for her test.
As she did Tsuyu joined Izuku.
She was a bit nervous, as she was facing off against her idol, Thirteen.
Once she and Aoyama faced Thirteen, the hero began to use their quirk, which was called Black Hole, that let them suck up anything and turn it to dust.
Both Ochaco and Aoyama hung on for dear life as their teacher tried to suck them up.
For about a minute.
"Wait…" thought Ochaco, "Thirteen wouldn't try to kill us…"
She looked at his partner.
"Do you think you can hold on for a little longer?" asked Ochaco.
"Yeah… why?" asked Aoyama confused.
"Okay!" said Ochaco letting go.
"What!" yelled Aoyama.
Thirteen closed up their finger holes to stop their quirk.
However, they blinked for a second and suddenly Ochaco was there grabbing their arm.
"Oh right… ninja…" chuckled Thirteen.
Then Aoyama joined by tackling Thirteen.
Ochaco who had the hand cuffs managed to cuff Thirteen.
In them monitor room, Izuku was happy.
"Amazing!" said Izuku, "She used Thirteen's quirk against them! She must have figured out that Thirteen wouldn't kill them."
"That's a bit grim. Ribbit." Said Tsuyu.
"Well… for us it's hard not to be at times." Said Izuku.
That was when the doors opened the two were joined by Momo, Mashirao and Iida.
"Hey!" cheered Izuku, "Good job on passing."
"They weren't prepared for what we could do." Said Momo blushing.
"Yeah…" said Mashirao.
"So Uraraka passed. That's good." Said Iida.
"So who's next?" asked Mashirao.
"I think Ashido and Kaminari." Said Momo.
"Their up against Principal Nezu." Said Izuku. "It's rare whenever we see him in battle."
The thing about Principal Nezu, is that he's an animal with a quirk that makes him smarter than most humans. So much so that he can calculate the damage done.
So his test took the form of him controlling a wrecking ball, trapping the two students so they couldn't escape to the exit.
And from the look of it he was having way too much fun being the villain.
"Humans did experiments on him, so during times like this he takes his anger out on humanity." Said Recovery to the students watching the test.
Needless to say the five students were horrified by this.
In the end neither Mina nor Kaminari were able to pass their test as time ran out for them.
That was when Ochaco joined them.
"Mina didn't pass?" she asked when she saw them, "She must be so devastated."
"But you did, congratulations." Said Iida.
"Thanks!" said Ochaco, "But it wasn't like yours…"
"Don't be that way." Said Momo.
"They were just caught off guard by our abilities." Said Mashirao.
Ochaco sighed even more.
"You still did great! I mean you were able to figure everything out." Said Izuku.
Ochaco began to blush and fiddle with her fingers.
"Thanks for saying the right thing…" she barely managed to get out.
Everyone else in the room stared at her and she realized she had another personality shift.
"I plan to see Hibiki after Deku's exam." Said Ochaco.
That was when the next exam began which was Kyoka and Koda. It was hard because they both had sound based Quirks and Present Mic did as well, with his making his yells loud.
Not only that his yells was scaring away the animals… expect for bugs which Koda was afraid of.
So much so he ran away.
But he was able to overcome his fears when he saw Kyoka's ears bleed.
He had the bugs come out from under ground and cover one of his legs.
The students watching this were shocked and horrified.
Izuku was shaking more than the others and even more pale than the others.
"Deku are you okay?" asked Ochaco.
"Well it's extremely embarrassing..." Said Izuku blushing bright red.
"You can tell us." Said Ochaco.
"Well thanks to my past life… I'm now scared of spiders…" said Izuku.
"Wait… did you just say thanks your past life…" said Tsuyu.
"Yeah… that's why I said it's extremally embarrassing." Said Izuku.
An award silence filled the room.
"Yeah…" said Izuku.
Though he did leave out the most embarrassing part, that Usopp who wasn't the bravest member of the crew and was an outright coward in the early days actually liked spiders. But he hadn't talked much about Usopp so he was able to leave out that part.
"It's okay…" Mashirao tried to assure him, "My best friend was afraid of cats… though his reason was terrible…"
"I can't believe he was beaten by a bunch of bugs…" muttered Recovery.
But yeah… they managed to get passed the exit while Present mic was knocked out in shock.
However the next test, was Toru and Shoji.
But unlike the others Snipe who was a skilled sharpshooter thanks to his quirk, was ready for them.
Toru even tried to get the jump on him with her party supply weapons but it was no good. Unlike the other two he was prepared for her nonsense.
Mostly, because he was about to shoot out a smoke bomb but she countered with a confetti bomb.
"Seriously?" he asked.
"Where are you getting this stuff?" asked Shoji.
Toru just shrugged as she normally did.
But the teacher still shot at them.
"I shouldn't only focus on using my party weapons I know that." Toru told herself.
However as she wasn't paying attention, Snipe unleashed another smoke bomb.
Durring this time she realized that she should use her quirk to the fullest extent.
And as he was doing Shoji noticed her gloves and shoes tossed away.
He realized the plan and pretended to surrender to give Toru the chance to handcuff him.
Though there was an awkwardness when he accidently bumped his elbow into her chest.
In area where Hibiki's exam as going to be he heard the signal about Toru and Shoji passing the test.
"Only a couple more left…" said Aiko.
"Yeah…" sighed Hibiki.
"So scared?" asked Aiko.
"A little…" said Hibiki.
"Well you are expecting fire and lots of it." Said Aiko.
Hibiki sighed.
"It's not just that…" said Hibiki, "It really depends on was Bakugo does."
"Aizawa knows something you don't, so I think that might be a factor." Said Aiko.
"Yeah… you're probably right." Muttered Hibiki.
"But I should warn you that either way you're probably going to get set on fire…" said Aiko.
"Stop reminding me of that." Said Hibiki.
"I can't help it…" said Aiko.
Hibiki sighed.
Back in the monitor room it was the next exam.
"Izuku…" said Momo.
"Yeah?" asked Izuku.
"I think it's best if you don't watch this exam." Said Momo.
"What? Why?" asked Izuku.
"Is it because his is next?" asked Ochaco.
"No because it might trigger you." Said Momo.
Izuku sweat dropped.
"Trigger him?" asked Tsuyu confused.
"It's about that day when I passed out…" said Izuku blushing, "Please don't ask any more…"
"It's okay…" said Ochaco trying to reassure him.
"Besides I want to watch all the matches." Said Izuku, "I want to get stronger…"
Everyone else stared at him.
"Stop looking at me that way." He sighed.
"You're the strongest student in class." Said Tsuyu.
"I know… but I can always get stronger… I mean I was nowhere near the strongest person in my old world…" said Izuku.
"You weren't?" asked Tsuyu.
"Not even close." Said Izuku.
"Um… guys…" said Ochaco.
They all looked at the exam going on the screen.
They saw that Mineta was running away from Midnight crying tears of blood.
"What…" said Izuku.
Okay to back up a bit, it was Sero and Mineta against Midnight, thanks to her quirk that cause her to release a gas that puts anyone to sleep, she managed to put Sero under her quirk.
Sero however used his quirk to get Mineta out of there but Midnight managed to use her quirk on him.
The reason for the tears of blood was because of his jealously.
However it was all part of Mineta's plan, due to being a perv himself he kept an eye on "pervy" heroes. Thanks to the fact she had a sadistic streak he knew that she would follow him. He used his quirk (which balls form out of his hair that were sticky to everything but him). While using a bit of Sero's tape as a mask, he was able to stick her, grab Sero and make to the escape gate.
Back in the monitor room Izuku left without saying anything.
He got to the entrance where his test was supposed to be and where Bakugo was waiting for him.
"About time you got here." Muttered Bakugo.
"Whatever." Muttered Izuku entering Sanji mode.
And then Bakugo said something that Izuku would never expect him to say.
"We don't have much time for a strategy…" muttered Bakugo, "So you better come up with one."
Izuku stared at Bakugo… he couldn't stop staring… his brain was having a hard time processing what was just said.
Though to be fair, he had no idea what Bakugo had been going through the past few weeks after the bullying came out and the fact he was trying to be a better person.
But still… this exam wasn't going to be anywhere close to what he thought it would be… like at all…
Next Time: Izuku and Bakugo know they must team up to defeat Hibiki. However fighting someone who's not only a Pro-Hero but was also a hero in his past life won't be easy... combined with the fact every other song is distracting and their feelings towards each other it won't be easy. Will they be able to pass? Find out next time!
A/N: Before anyone complains I would like to remind everyone Sanji is canonically afraid of spiders. It's shown back in the Jaya arc. And yes in the same scene it's shown that Usopp thinks spiders are cool. Which makes it even sadder if you think about it.
