Mera says on the speaker, "That's 79 people. Everyone's moving at an exhausting pace now."
Sero says, "Wow, that was fast."
Izuku, Ochaco, and Sero's targets all say, "Students who have passed the exam should congregate in the anteroom. Chop, chop."
Izuku mutters, "Are the others already there?"
Mera sighs and says in the speaker, "Hope these kids don't take their youthful energy for granted. The battle royale format is nothing new for the exam, but this time, the patterns are a bit unusual. UA is always heavily targeted from the get go, but so far, all of those students are still in the board."
Tenya runs and gasps and says, "That's..."
Aoyama shivers and gasps looking behind him at Tenya.
Tenya runs up to Aoyama and says, "Aoyama!"
Aoyama says, "Bonjour. Are you out here alone? What a coincidence. So am I."
Tenya says making a fist, "I've been trying to find as many of our classmates as I can. There's a handful of us gathered nearby, but I came to look for stragglers."
Aoyama gasps and says, "So you left the group just to come help the others?"
Tenya grunts nodding.
Aoyama starts laughing and says, "You're so funny. How do you even think you'll find people out here? And what are you gonna do if everyone left behind passes without you?"
Tenya says, "First of all, I found you, didn't I?" Aoyama gasps and Tenya continues, "And if everyone else passes the test, that's a wonderful thing. I'm our class representative. It's my duty to lead the others. I want to serve our peers to the best of my abilities. That's what my brother would do as well as Cara. It's through my actions that I'll realize my ultimate dream."
Aoyama mutters to himself chocked, "Your ultimate dream?"
Tenya says, "Obviously, I do wanna get my provisional license. And the test will be coming to an end soon. So I'll continue my search while trying to pass. Please, work with me!"
Back in the anteroom, I hear Mera over the speaker say, "Oh. Three more one after the other. Our total's at 82..."
On the outside of the wall I focus as I hear Eijiro say, "Whoa, this entire arena's going insane."
Kaminari says pointing, "Hey, look, some of our classmates." He runs forward to Izuku, Ochaco, and Sero saying, "Aw, yeah! Class-A represent!"
Ochaco and Sero stop with Ochaco smiling and saying, "Oh, you know it! Our class is amazing! We did it!"
Sero, Ochaco, Kaminari, and Eijiro start dancing together and saying, "Class 1-A. Class 1-A. Class 1-A. Class 1-A. Class 1-A. Class 1-A. Class 1-A!"
Izuku having been looking at the dancing group changes his focus to Bakugo walking forward.
Bakugo says looking at Izuku, "So you passed, too. How'd you manage that, Deku?"
Izuku says with his hands clasped nervously, "Kacchan. Hey!" Izuku sighs and mutters to himself, "Oh, boy, here it comes. It's been a while though! Ever since Kamino, he hasn't been near as mean to me."
Bakugo says walking past him, "Guess I shouldn't be surprised with that Quirk you got."
Izuku looks up towards him shocked and gasps and mutters to himself, "Wait. Hold on. What did he say?" Izuku now has his hand in front of his face.
Bakugo says, "It looks like you've made that borrowed power your own."
Izuku gasps watching him and remembers telling him when it was a borrowed Quirk. Izuku says quietly, "Kacchan..."
In the anteroom, we eat and drink a little. I know Izuku, Ochaco, Sero, Bakugo, Eijiro, and Kaminari are coming but I realize they are here when Momo says, "Oh, hey! What a relief. I was starting to get so worried!"
Kaminari walking in front of the group says, "No need to worry about us, Yao-momo. What's up? When did you guys pass? You been here long?"
Shoji says, "We just finished as well. Todoroki beat us. And Cara beat everyone, she was one of the first 2 to pass though she explained she doesn't count in the 100."
Jiro walks up from behind Shoji and says, "I was kinda shocked Bakugo wasn't here already. But I get it now. It's because you were with him."
Bakugo stands behind Kaminari now and Kaminari points at Jiro and says, "Oh, come on! Why is everyone dragging me today?"
Tsu says looking at Ochaco, "Ochaco? The key to take off your targets is in the back. They asked us to return them to the shelf now that we're done."
Ochaco says, "Oh, cool. Thank you, Tsu. I'll do that."
Shoto and I are looking at Izuku while holding hands and Shoto says to Izuku, "Looks like only 12 from our class have passed."
Izuku says, "So nine more to go."
Momo having walked behind Izuku says, "And the announcement said only 18 spots left."
Izuku looks at the ground slightly shaking and mutters, "Come on, guys."
Aoyama flies in the air with his Navel Laser. A guy comes above him and says, "That target's mine!"
Aoyama says, "Oui!"
Tenya grabs Aoyama's cape from the air and says, "Aoyama!" The other examinee lands and jumps back.
Aoyama says, "There are two of us, Iida. This has turned into a war. It's going to be tra's hard for both of us to survive it! Just leave me here."
Tenya says, "What are you talking about? Keep fighting! Class 1-A does not give up."
Aoyama and Tenya are surrounded as Aoyama looks up and says, "Non, that's not what I'm doing." Aoyama screams as a bomb goes off near them.
Tenya runs with Aoyama's cape in his hand so he's dragging him behind him in the air. Tenya says, "We're finished if we stay put."
Mineta hiding behind a rock wall with Mina, Ojiro, and Hagakure says, "Ah, balls, almost out of time!"
Koda, Sato, and Tokoyami hiding behind another rock wall. Sato asks, "So how are we gonna get our points?"
On the speaker, Mera says, "Wow. Eight people just passed at the same time. That leaves only ten open spots."
Ms. Joke laughs hearing that and says, "Ha! Those eight were all from my class! See 'em? They're headed into the anteroom." Ms. Joke stands and waves saying louder to them, "Great job there, kiddos!"
Dad mutters, "Ten people left."
In the anteroom, Momo looks at the screen and says, "Looks like our class..."
Jiro finished, "...still has nine people who haven't passed. I hate to say it, but it's not sounding good for us."
Tenya runs with Aoyama and Aoyama remembers what Tenya said when he first found him. Aoyama mutters to himself, "Your ultimate dream..."
Aoyama plants his feet and stops and Tenya is forced to let him go causing Tenya to gasp.
Aoyama bends over backwards and shoots his Navel Laser skyward causing everyone around to see it.
An examinee who sees it asks, "Um. What is that?"
Tenya says watching him, "Are you out of your mind? Seriously. What are you doing?"
Aoyama says, "I'm standing out."
Tenya says, "Yes. Yes, you are. That's exactly the problem."
Aoyama says, "If you try to protect me, you'll fail the test. I've already got two of my triggers hit, and they'll be swarming me soon. You'll have a much better chance without me. Please. Let me do this for you."
Tenya gasps.
Aoyama continues, "While I've got the spotlight, you can sneak up on the people who come after me. With your speed, you should be able to hit their targets."
Tenya asks, "Where is this even coming from?"
Aoyama answers, "Something you said earlier inspired me. Your ultimate dream. I always wanted to be an equal to the amazing people at our school. Our enemies'll be here soon. Get ready!"
Tenya stands up and looks around seeing the people coming. Tenya says, "You can't!"
The examinees run forward yelling.
Aoyama says, "Now! You have to run!"
Tenya looks at a flock of pigeons coming.
An examinee says seeing the same, "Wait. What are those!" The examinees yelp as the pigeons come after them.
One says, "Damn birds."
Another says, "Where'd they come from?"
Tenya dodges the birds saying, "This is..."
Koda says loudly from atop a rock, "Thank you, birds. Please continue to swarm this area!"
Tokoyami says, "Black Abyss! Covert Black-Ops Arms!" Dark Shadow appears on Tokoyami and attacks examinees.
Other examinees are stuck with Mineta's balls on the ground.
An examinee says, "Crap! I'm stuck!"
Another asks, "What are these things?"
Ojiro comes and yells a little before smacking examinees with his tail forcing them down into Mineta's balls more.
An examinee says stuck, "Damn it!"
Mineta says as he throws more balls making himself bleed, "Go, go, go, go, go! Get some out while they're distracted!"
Ojiro calls seeing Tenya, "Iida, what're you doing? Don't just stand there!"
Tenya says happy, "You came for us!"
An examinee says, "It's UA!"
Hagakure says, "Reflection: Say Cheese!" She makes blinding light go around.
An examinee that gets blinded by Hagakure's light says, "My eyes! I can't see!"
The examinees yell.
Hagakure says hitting a target, "I've got two people out."
Ojiro hits a target and says, "Same here!"
Mera comes over the speakers saying, "That's two more in. Eight spots left."
Aoyama says looking around, "Wait. Why would they...?"
Mina says, "Everyone was going nuts and getting desperate in the final minutes. I couldn't see anything! I couldn't tell who was friend or foe! But then we spotted your bellybutton laser, and we knew we'd be able to meet up with our classmates again!" She gives Aoyama a thumbs up as she continues, "C'mon. Let's do this!" Mina hits a guy's target and causes him to yelp.
Mera calls on the speaker, "Seven spaces remain!"
Tokoyami says as he hits a target, "Sorry."
Mera calls, "Six left!"
Mineta walks forward giggling and hits a target making Mera call, "Make that five! The pressure's on, now! In the final minutes, UA came together and pulled off some absolutely insane combos!"
Dad mutters, "There were that many of you left on the field?"
Mera comes over the speakers as Koda hits a target, "Four spots!"
Koda says to himself, "I did it!"
Mera calls as Sato hit a target, "Now three!"
Sato calls, "I'm in!"
Mera calls, "Ooh! That's one from Shiketsu High! So only two spots remain."
Tenya and Aoyama run together. Tenya says, "Aoyama. I don't know who you want to be equal with, because I don't know what you're measuring yourself against."
Two examinees that Aoyama and Tenya are running to yelp seeing them as they are stuck on Mineta's balls.
Tenya gets his ball ready and says, "But this was your doing! Thank you!"
They hit their targets and Aoyama says, "Well, I guess this means my twinkling won't have to stop after all."
Tenya says, "No. Keep twinkling. Whatever that means."
An alarm blares and Mera screams, "The last students passed! Every spot is now filled! One hundred students will advance as well as the extra one who just is getting to decide if she keeps hers. The end is finally here! Wah-hoo!"
In the anteroom, after hearing Mera's announcement Eijiro and Kaminari jump screaming, "Yeah!"
Ochaco with her arms in the air says, "Our entire class passed the test, I'm so excited!"
Sero says with a big smile on his face, "Aw, man! I am so proud of us!"
Tsu says smiling, "Ribbit, ribbit!"
Izuku sighs and says, "We really pulled it off, you guys."
Momo giggles relieved.
Shoji nods and says, "Yeah."
Mera says on the speaker, "Unfortunately, those of you who failed will now have to withdraw from the licensing exam. Please leave the test area immediately."
Dad says in the stands, "They just had to keep me on the edge of my seat, huh? We're training so hard when we get back."
Ms. Joke laughs and says, "Oh, come on, you're happy, aren't you?"
Dad says, "Furious."
Ms. Joke says, "Then what's that sparkle in your eye?"
Dad says, "Annoyance."
Ms. Joke just laughs.
