Coco: Hey, guys, sorry about the wait. I took some time to work on my other stories as I've kind of been neglecting them. But I'm back with another chapter. Nothing too exciting as the beginning of the second phase it going to kick off in this chapter, but there will be more action in the next, I assure you.
Now shall we get started you lovely people?
Ayano rubbed the back of her neck while feeling a bit tired. All this walking and running around has her worn out. That's what she gets though for letting her support item be destroyed so easily. She hoped she could ask Momo for a temporary fix before the second phase of the exam. She didn't want to put her classmate at a disadvantage, however, so she guessed she might just have to go on foot for the rest of the exam if she had to.
As she was nearing the anteroom, she heard chanting of 'Class 1-A' up ahead, which had her turning her gaze up. She saw Ochaco, Hanta, Eijiro, and Denki hopping around in a circle as they were chanting with big grins on their faces. Izuku was watching nearby with a smile on his face, and Katsuki stood off to the side looking annoyed.
"I take it all of you passed." Ayano said getting their attentions.
"Ayano!" Ochaco cheered when seeing the girl.
The boys, who had been chanting with her, all smiled at the sight of her as well as the ginger-haired girl stopped in front of the group.
"You know we did!" Denki said with his smile growing. "We totally killed it!"
Ayano smiled at her classmates' enthusiasm as Eijiro was patting her on the back to congratulate her on passing.
"Were you on your own, Ishida?" Hanta asked.
"Yes, I was separated from everyone after Shindō's attack that split the ground." Ayano said. "It made things a bit harder, but I managed. Who did you end up with?"
"Midoriya and Uraraka." Hanta said then leaned in. "But when we met up with Midoriya, you'll never guess who he was with."
Ayano's brow quirked curiously and as Hanta leaned in even more to whisper it to her, Katsuki watched with a frown. His frown deepened when seeing Ayano's eyes widen as her head whipped around to stare at Izuku.
"Midoriya Izuku, what were you doing during these exams?" Ayano asked.
Izuku looked confused for a moment, but after he and Ayano seemed to have a small mental conversation, Izuku blushed.
"It wasn't like that!" He said shaking his head.
The others looked on confusion as Ayano mentally grilled Izuku for information while pulling at his cheeks like a scolding mother. Hanta snickered the entire time as he was hopping for that kind of reaction. Ayano was pulled off the panicking greenette by Eijiro who handed her off to Katsuki.
"Let's just get going inside," Eijiro said as Katsuki kept Ayano off of Izuku.
Honestly, Katsuki didn't care if Ayano maimed Izuku, but they didn't know how much longer they had to prepare for the next phase. So, it was best to head in and take time to rest and prepare. As they went inside, they easily spotted their classmates who were there.
"Oh hey," Momo, who was currently eating, said when she spotted them. "What a relief. I was starting to get so worried."
"No need to worry about us, Yao-Momo," Denki assured her as he and Katsuki who was still holding Ayano walked over. "What's up? When did you guys pass? You been here long?"
He was referring to Momo and those she was with, which were Kyoka, Tsuyu, Mezo, and Hachiro. Said spider boy was adjusting his right sleeve of his uniform to be rolled up to his elbow as it seemed as if it had taken some kind of damage. Denki also noted the bandaged around the boy's wrist.
"We just finished as well." Mezo said. "Todoroki, Kurafutoshi, and Jinsoku beat us. In fact, Jinsoku was the first one here."
That wasn't surprising considering Ayumi is the fastest one in their class. Speaking of said girl, she was currently with Konan as the two were speaking to a few people from other schools. Leave it to Ayumi to branch out and make new friends.
"I was kind of shocked Bakugo wasn't here already," Kyoka said. "But I get it now. It's because you were with him."
"Oh, come on!" Denki exclaimed as he pointed at Kyoka. "Why is everyone dragging me today?!"
No one answered his question as Tsuyu gave Ochaco and Ayano, who was finally set on her own two feet, some water.
"Ochaco, Ayano, the key to take off your targets is in the back." Tsuyu told them. "They asked us to return them to the shelf now that we're done."
Both girls thanked Tsuyu for telling them before Ochaco turned to Hachiro who was being kind of quiet. It was so unlike the boy.
"Hey, Nida, you okay?" She asked. "Looks like you have an injury."
"It's fine," Hachiro replied. "It doesn't even hurt anymore. Though I'm down to one wrist when it comes to using my webs. Might make things a bit hard for me in the next phase."
Ochaco nodded in understanding as Shoto joined their classmates who were starting to gather together. Even Ayumi and Konan walked over after finishing speaking with some other examinees.
"Looks like only fifteen from our class have passed," Shoto told everyone.
Ayano frowned because she was hoping everyone would be here by now. She was actually starting to feel a bit worried.
"So, nine more to go." Izuku said.
"And the announcement said only eighteen more spots left." Momo added.
This really wasn't looking good for their remaining classmates. Maybe Ayano should have taken the time to try and connect everyone together. She was just so sure they wouldn't need her to keep them tethered mentally. That they could pass even if in smaller groups.
'Though who knows how many of them ended up completely alone like I did,' She thought as she bit her lip.
She came out of her thoughts as Katsuki bumped his arm against hers. She looked up at the blonde as he kept his eyes forward.
"Don't look so guilty," He said. "Those idiots still have time to pass."
Ayano nodded though the guilt didn't completely leave her. She moved closer to Katsuki to wrap her arms around his right one as her classmates and herself watched the screen that showed them what was happening outside.
"Whoa, eight people just passed at the same time." Mera's voice came through the speakers once more. "That leaves only ten open spots."
Ayano and many of the others frowned because that meant there were even less spots for their remaining classmates.
"Looks like our class…" Momo trailed off.
"Still has nine people who haven't passed." Kyoka finished for her. "I hate to say it, but it's not sounding good for us."
Ayumi and Konan exchanged a glance. As they were starting to feel nervous for their classmates. If things continued like this, maybe they wouldn't be all passing together.
"They can still pull it off," Hachiro said as he crossed his arms over his chest. "Don't count them out yet."
Things definitely didn't look good for the remaining nine out in the field, but Hachiro had faith they could still pass. And until the last spot was filled, he wouldn't give up on at the very least one more of them passing. Ayano watched the scene closely as suddenly a beam of light shot up into the sky.
"It's Aoyama-kun." Ayano said.
"What is that twinkle twerp doing?" Katsuki wondered as he took a seat on the benches against the wall.
Ayano, who remained standing, didn't know, but everyone watched as all the competitors still left on the field started rushing towards their classmate. The camera started focusing on the scene and Ayano and the others saw Tenya was with Yuga who was still using his quirk to attract attention. Just as they were about to be swarmed birds—a very large flock of birds swept in.
"Koda's there too." Denki said.
Soon the remaining members of Class 1-A appeared within the flock. They immediately go to work on the opposing students. Ayano smiled as she watched Toru and Mashirao quickly take down two opponents.
"That's two more in!" Mera announced. "Only eight spots remaining."
Konan felt relieved that Mashirao managed to pass, but they still had seven classmates who needed to pass as well. They were soon joined by Mina, Fumikage, and Minoru, which left five more spaces.
"They're doing it!" Ochaco said excitedly. "Look at them go!"
She said this while hugging Tsuyu who seemed just as excited for their classmates.
"The pressure is on now!" Mera said. "In the final minutes, U.A. came together and pulled off some absolutely insane combos!"
Which was just something the students of Class1-A seemed to have a habit of doing. Ayano shook her head as her classmates always seemed to be pulling off some last-minute miracles. They were crazy (not that she has room to talk). Koji and Rikido then managed to get in with the latter holding up his arms in victory. Another student then passed, but it wasn't one of the last remaining members of Class 1-A.
"Ooh, that one's in from Shiketsu High." Mera commented. "So, only two spots remain."
Ayano was leaning forward in anticipation by now as Yuga and Tenya were going in to score their final points. Katsuki snorted at her as he watched her watch the screen closely alongside the rest of their classmates in the anteroom.
"The last student passed!" Mera shouted as a buzzer sounded throughout the arena. "Every spot is now filled! 100 students will advance! The end is finally here! Wahoo!"
As Ayano's classmates cheered loudly for their nine classmates out on the field, she turned to give Katsuki a big smile.
"Isn't this great?" She asked him. "We all managed to pass."
"I could care less if those losers passed or not." Katsuki said as he rested his right ankle on his left knee.
Ayano lightly rolled her eyes at Katsuki as Mera was telling all those who didn't pass to leave the test arena. He also instructed that those who passed should go to the anteroom, so to prepare for the next phase. Ayano wasn't sure what this next phase was going to be, but she was ready to get it her all.
"Alright, for the 100 of you who passed, please, turn your attention to the screen." Mera instructed the students.
Ayano and everyone from her class looked up as the screen started flashing through all the different zones on the exam field. Nothing happened at first, but suddenly explosives started going off throughout the entire arena. It caused much of the mock buildings and other structures to come crashing down. Ayano's eyes widened a bit as she wondered what was the point in destroying the testing zone.
"There's only one more round to this exam." Mera said. "Your goal is simple. Undertake rescue exercises and save the bystanders who are trapped in these disaster sites."
Ayano frowned slightly. She thought there might be rescue training involved. Especially considering that exercise that Aizawa put them through before the exam. But a part of her still hoped there wouldn't be as her class…still didn't have much rescue training under their belts.
"Save the what now?" Denki and Minoru asked in unison.
"Bystanders." Toru repeated the word as she pointed at the boys. "We learned about them in class, remember? They're people at a disaster seen."
"It can also simply refer to innocent citizens on the street." Momo added.
Ayano had to wonder who these bystanders would be. Maybe training dummies like the one they used during their rescue training.
"Use this time to show us how you'll carry out successful rescue procedures once you receive your provisional licenses." Mera told the students. "Treat this as if it was the real thing."
That means not only protecting or saving the bystanders from physical dangers, but also reassuring them and taking their mental and emotional states into consideration as well. Nighteye told her the best way to reassure people is to smile and tell them that everything is okay, but she didn't like that approach. She felt like she was lying. Things weren't okay in a disaster.
People are hurt…some dead, so she doesn't understand how smiling and telling people everything is okay is the right thing to do. No…she wants to tell people things will be okay. That even if it is bad at that moment that things will be better and she will do whatever in her power to make it so. But…she isn't sure how others might feel about her way of thinking. Not that she needs to dwell on that now.
"On the screen," Mezo said getting his classmates' attentions.
Class A looked back to the screen, and Ayano's brow quirked when seeing…people…out in the now destroyed arena.
"Huh, little kids and old people?!" Rikido exclaimed.
"That's so dangerous!" Minoru said. "Why are they here?"
"It appears we won't be using training dummies for this exam." Konan spoke up. "As he said, we should treat this as the real thing. As if real people are in danger. Well, there are our real bystanders."
She gestured to the screen with many of her classmates seeming surprised as they wondered if the committee was actually going to use real bystanders.
"They're actually…using citizens?" Eijiro asked. "No way! Training or not that's not safe."
"Hmm, I think it's just members of H.U.C, guys." Ayumi, who was bunching on some chips, said. "They do this stuff all the time, so I wouldn't worry about it."
Her classmates swiveled to look at her, and she blinked when seeing their confused looks.
"Huck?" Hanta repeated. "What's a huck?"
"Ya know, the Help Us Company." Ayumi said as if that just cleared things up. "My father donates a lot to them since they help young heroes-in-training like us further our skills in the rescuing field."
This didn't help the others understand any better. At least not all of them anyway. Ayano and a few of the others were starting to connect the dots.
"My parents happen to work with them a lot." Hachiro spoke up. "They have yearly meetings on how to improve rescue training for students like us. They also collaborate together to make specialized training regiments for Pros who struggle with this side of hero work."
Mera's voice cut in to explain that members of the Help Us Company were actually trained specialists when it comes to being a person in need of rescue. Ayano had no idea that such a job existed. Though she understood the logic behind it. She has to wonder what kind of pay these people get to put themselves in these kinds of situations.
"The H.U.C bystanders have dressed up like injured victims and will be located throughout the disaster site." Mera continued to explain the next phase. "We will be judging how you keep them safe as you go about your mission. Oh, by the way, we'll be scoring you on a point system. If you have more points than the bench mark by the time the exam comes to an end then you pass the exam. We'll start in ten minutes. Take care of any necessary preparations now."
Ayano let out a breath while knowing this was going to be much harder than the first phase. However, she would remain calm and do what needs to be done. This isn't like every school for themselves. Everyone in this room would have to work together. There was a big area to cover. There's no telling which quirk would be needed exactly where or how many would be needed for a certain rescue attempt. Unless they were all able to communicate together even when spread so far apart.
'Hive, think we can manage it?' Ayano asked. 'Can we manage connecting to a hundred people? And in such a spread-out area?'
'Of course,' Hive replied with certainty. 'Ishida Ayano and Hive had prepared for this. Our reach is farther and it is stronger. Also, Hive senses others like Hive. Using their minds, we can strengthen our own.'
Ayano guessed that meant there were other students were with psychic abilities. Ayano found using other psychic-like minds like an antenna, she can stretch her telepathy farther and make it stronger. Or if she's weak use their minds to jump start her own quirk in a way—or like piggyback of their own stamina and ability. Like she had done with Mandalay back when the League attacked the training camp.
'Good,' Ayano said. 'We have to do our best. People need us, so we can't fail them.'
As Ayano and her classmates mentally prepared and also replenished themselves for the next phase, Ayano failed to notice the eyes watching her. Eyes that belonged to one of the Shiketsu students.
As the bell rang for the next test to begin and Mera explained the situation, the room they were in began to open up. Ayano took a breath to calm her nerves. Tucked underneath her arm was a makeshift board that Momo had been kind enough to make her. It didn't have the same function as her telekin-board, but it'd definitely work for now. Once they were given the go ahead, the young heroes-in-training were rushing off.
Ayano used her temporary board to keep up as she watched many separate by their school. Not surprising. Everyone here would stick with people they've worked with before. They knew what to expect from people they've trained alongside of since they began their hero schooling. However, it won't be enough to just work with people your familiar with.
"Let's start by heading to the closest urban area." Tenya suggested as he led the group. "We'll work as a team!"
While many of the class agreed with his plan, Katsuki once again started to take off on his own. Though Eijiro and Denki were right behind him.
'Katsuki, try to keep your cool out there,' Ayano sent her thoughts to him. 'This isn't battle training.'
'Yeah, yeah, I know that, Aya!' He snapped back at her.
He then yelled out loud at Denki and Eijiro as they were right behind him—much to his annoyance. They just grinned at him despite his anger as Ayano sighed while watching them go. She then looked towards her classmates.
"I'll be branching off too, you guys." Ayano said surprising them. "I want to get a higher view of the place. Besides, I have an idea I want to try that should help the overall rescue."
"Okay, well, be careful." Momo said.
Ayano nodded before she took herself higher and higher until she could see the entire arena. From so up high, she couldn't see everyone in perfect clarity, but it still gave her an idea on where all the examinees were.
'Alright,' Ayano thought. 'It's time. Hive, let's make the connection.'
Hive hummed in the back of her mind as Ayano closed her eyes to concentrate on all the minds below her. She needed to pick through them all until she finally located only the minds of those taking this exam. As she was doing that, Aizawa noticed her from where he sat in the stands with Joke.
"Hey, isn't that one of your students?" Ms. Joke asked as she pointed a the floating Ayano. "What is she hoping to do from way up there?"
"She's probably attempting a telepathic link." Aizawa said. "With all those below who are taking the exam. The largest group of minds she's ever connected with was half the amount that there is now."
"Then how does she plan to connect with twice as many?" Joke had to wonder out loud.
Aizawa didn't reply this time as he kept his eyes on Ayano who had a look of completely relaxation on her face. Her eyes then snapped open.
'Connection made,' Hive and Ayano's voices overlapped in her mind.
Their voices reached the other 99 students in the test, and all of them—aside from her classmates—stiffened.
'Apologies for the sudden invasion,' Ayano said to those not used to her quirk. 'This is Ishida Ayano of U.A. High.'
She then took a moment to calm her fluttering stomach as she prepared for what she had to say next.
'The area of rescue is large and we all have no idea how many bystanders need saving or what their conditions are.' Ayano continued. 'All of us will have to work together. To help do so, I have linked all 100 hundred of us together, so we may all strategize together. We need to move heroes to where their quirks and skills will be best of use. This is how we'll save the citizens.'
She felt her classmates ready to help as needed—well, almost all of them as Katsuki could care less—, but she wasn't sure if the students from the other schools would feel the same. They might reject her idea and want nothing to do working together with people outside their school. It made her worry that making the connection might have been for not.
'Mora Nagamasa of Shiketsu,' Mora called through the think. 'I have already cleared a space for a helicopter to be able to land. If there are any areas in need of being cleared out, we of Shiketsu can help.'
'Shindō from Ketsubutsu Academy,' Yo's voice spoke up. 'My class has already set up a medical station to take the wounded. There's plenty of space for the citizens to be cared for. Anyone with a healing-based quirk or medical knowledge would best to come here.'
He sent the location through the link and Ayano smiled. Looks like they were willing to work with others outside their school. Though she supposed she shouldn't be surprised they are all aspiring heroes.
'There's also enough room to make it an evacuation zone.' Shikkui added.
'That's good,' Ayano said. 'Now, as we go through the rescue, don't hesitate to use the link to ask for help. If anyone needs help with a rescue, we will be able to hear you and assist by sending the right candidate for the situation.'
'I could actually use someone with the ability to either see in the dark or produce light,' A voice called out. 'There is a trapped bystander, but they are not responding to my calls. It's too dark to see their condition or if it is safe to move in.'
'They do have a pulse, however,' A different voice said. 'Is there anyone who can help us see them?'
'You need light?' Yuga asked. 'Then have no fear. My twinkling can help save the day!'
Ayano chuckled at her zealous classmate's words as his light shot up into the air like it had done earlier. Soon everyone was spreading out and communicating through the link and going where they were needed. Ayano watched every move on with a satisfied look on her face. She gave a nod then flew off to go over to where the first aid station was. She couldn't necessarily use too much of her other abilities while maintaining such a large link, so she didn't see herself useful with going to help in the actual search.
Ayano arrived at the first aid station where she saw Yo and many of his classmates at work. She touched down on the ground then propped the board Momo gave her up against some rubble. At her arrival, Yo turned to look at her after he finished looking over a citizen.
"So, how long do you think you can keep up the link?" He asked as he stood. "This might take a while."
"I'm not worried about how much time it will take." Ayano said. "That's not an issue. The problem is making sure not to strain myself by overusing my other abilities. The more I use the full range of my quirk the weaker the link will become. That's why I came here. I can't keep myself hovering over the arena for too long and using my telekinesis and psionic construction to help move debris and citizens is basically a no go as well. However, I can be of use to any citizen with any damage they might have sustained to affect their brain activity. It'll be easy for me to read if there is anything wrong with their mental state after they've gone through such a traumatic experience."
"I see," Yo said with a nod. "My classmate over there is working on checking in the wounded. She can take you to those who might have sustained brain damage."
Ayano thanked him then moved over to the classmate he had pointed out. She might not like how the boy acted before, but now wasn't the time to hold a grudge over such trivial matters.
"Is there any way I can help?" Ayano asked Tatami as she was telling another student to take someone with a hurt leg. "I can see to anyone who has taken any hits to the head."
Tatami smiled with a nod then took Ayano over to citizens who were getting their heads wrapped or appeared to be unconscious. After making sure Ayano was good to go, Tatami went back to what she had been doing.
"My head hurts," An elderly man complained as Ayano knelt next to him. "What happened? I can't remember."
'Looks like he might be suffering from mild amnesia.' Ayano thought. 'I can't physically see if there is damage to his brain, but I can see the state of his mind.'
She placed a hand on the man's shoulder and he turned to look at her with a troubled look.
"Don't worry," She said. "You'll be fine. I know it doesn't seem like it now, but I promise by tomorrow you'll be back home and relaxing, yeah?"
The man just stared at her for a moment before giving her a smile and a small nod. She then checked over him and once seeing he seemed sound enough of mind, she told him to remain still and relax. She moved onto the next person while also maintaining the link between her and the other examinees. She heard communication happening back and forth through the link, and she was glad everyone seemed to working so well together.
"Ayano, I have someone else for you to look over." Izuku said as he walked over with a boy in his arms.
Ayano looked up from the woman she was caring for to look at the boy. He seemed to be bleeding from his head, which means he could be disoriented. Ayano turned back to the citizen she had been looking over.
"There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with your mind," Ayano said to the woman. "Just take it easy. The first responders should be here soon."
The woman nodded, so Ayano stood up to walk over to Izuku and the boy who he carefully set down.
"Hey," Ayano greeted the boy as she sat down in front of him. "I'm Ayonic. Can you tell me your name?"
The boy gave her a name and she nodded her head. She then asked if it was okay for her to peer into his mind for any sign of mental trauma. He gave his permission though he was whimpering slightly. She looked into his mind for a brief moment, but saw nothing wrong—not that she expected to. Even if this was meant to be a real situation, it was still training, so everyone so far was of sound mind. She doubted even these specialists could fake mental trauma.
"You're going to be just fine," Ayano said as she put her hand on his shoulder. "Thank you for being so brave and working with me."
Ayano and Izuku then stiffened when the sound of explosions filled the area. Izuku was quick to crouch down and put his arms around Ayano and the boy to shield them. Ayano and everyone watched as the wall near the aid station fell to reveal…villains? No, it was Gang Orca and a large group of men in black body suits and dark helmets.
"A villain has completed another large-scale attack," Mera announced.
Ayano could see that just fine on her own, but at least she knew this was just part of the test…and not another U.S.J incident. Though she supposed that should have been obviously as it was Gang Orca doing the attacking. As Izuku assured the other examinees the attack was just part of the test, Gang Orca peered down at them.
"Tell me, wannabe heroes, can you rescue people and fight at the same time?" Gang Orca asked them.
Gang Orca raised his hand and as if it was some kind of signal, the men with him began to move in. Ayano frowned. Of course, they'd pop up next to the first aid incident. As Mera explained that they would have to rescue and fight, Ayano stood up in front of Izuku and the child.
"Now how will you react?" Gang Orca asked as he walked forward with casual ease. "Will you fight or protect? Help or run away? What would a hero do?"

Aizawa Shota was not amused as he tried to enjoy his lunch in peace while having to listen to his three friends loudly goof off around him. Oboro and Ko were laughing loudly at Hizashi as the loud blonde was singing and dancing around like a fool. Shota just wanted to eat lunch in blissful silence, but unsurprisingly the three idiots had to ruin that. He wondered why he's put up with them for as long as he has.
"My, my," A voice called from behind Shota. "You're all lively as ever."
Shota turned towards the one who spoke to see Tsugu Naosu from Class 2-B standing there. She had a smile on her face and her hands behind her back. Shoto saw a few bandages around her arms and neck and even some on her feet. But what really stood out was the large bandage over her left eye. All things that point to a telltale sign that she just finished training with Recovery Girl.
"Oh hey, Tsugu." Oboro greeted with a grin. "Come to eat lunch with us again?"
Naosu nodded her head as she brought her wrapped up lunch out from behind her back. She then took a seat next to Shota to whom she gave a smile. Shota didn't return it, but it didn't make hers falter in the slightest.
"So, just get out training?" He asked as she unwrapped the pink clothe around her lunch to reveal a black bento box.
"Yep." Naosu replied. "Some third years got pretty carried away during their training, so I asked Recovery Girl to let me handle their injuries. Several of their bones had to be replaced. One had a damaged larynx. Oh, and one severely damaged his eye!"
She said this with her smile growing even wider as Shota sweat-dropped. Of course, this sadist was excited some poor guy nearly lost his eye.
"Is that why you're wearing that bandage?" Ko asked pointing to his own eye. "Did you have to repair some of the guy's eye?"
"Nope, I replaced his eye completely!" Naosu replied. "That's why I'm wearing this bandage. I thought I'd freak people out walking around with an empty socket until my eye grew back."
Hizashi, who had sat down to actually eat his lunch at her arrival, spit out his drink in shock.
"Your eye is missing?!" He asked.
Shota rolled his eyes at Hizashi's reaction. He should be used to Naosu's quirk by now. The girl could remove all her lower intestines and walk around like nothing was wrong.
"Yeah, wanna see?~" She asked.
"Yeah!" Oboro and Ko said in unison as they leaned forward.
Hizashi on the other hand was shaking his head 'no' rapidly while already looking a little green. Shota just sighed as his friends became rowdy once more. He groaned when Oboro and Ko exclaimed their surprise loudly when seeing Naosu's eye was indeed gone.
"I need new friends." Shota said to himself.

And there you go! I know it wasn't exclusively Aizawa and Naosu, but I just had to add all the other precious beans like Present Mic and Oboro...who some of you might not know...but I'm hoping you do. Also, I added Ko since some of you might not remember he was actually classmates with Aizawa, Mic, and Oboro. So...here's your reminder XD
I quite like these little chapter bonuses. They're fun to write, so if you maybe have a request like this one, feel free to message me or leave it in a review. I'll try to add it on to the next chapter! Well, until next time, everyone!
