Tsuyu croaked, looking over at everyone else. Momo was busy trying to think of their next move, Shoji was making sure no one was around, Mineta lamented getting to hit a girl, and Koda was talking with a bird who was keeping a … well birds eye view.

If she was being completely honest, it didn't seem like the most well rounded team that could've formed on the spot, but she's spent too much time up to this point doubting her classmates, so she would go along with what they had to work with. She only wished she could've seen where Iruma ended up, the last thing they needed was for him to get lost again.

"So far we're in the clear. Nothing nearby." Shoji said, keeping an eye looking around the corner.

"Jack Sparrow says that they're moving on to other students." The bird's name was Jack Sparrow? "Looks like their main objective was to split us up as much as possible."

"Makes sense. Once they saw us working together, they adapted their approach. They were attacking us based on what they knew from the Sportsfestival." Momo explained. "That's why Aizawa had us develop Ultimate moves, so we could develop skills they wouldn't already know about."

"It was another one of his logical ruses, damn it!" Mineta complained. "That man never know when to stop torturing us!"

"Tsu, I know you have a thing against too much romance, but let us torture Aizawa with Miss Joke, it's all we have on him other than the nice-sensei stuff." Momo pleaded.

"Sounds like a fun time." What better way to relieve stress than to take it out on the man that put them through so much pain? "So what's our move?"

"As much as it pains me to say it, it's better off if we try and get some targets ourselves. There's too much of a risk in gaining a large number of students and making ourselves a bigger target than we already are." Looks like she chose the right Ultimate move to develop. "For now, we'll head into one of the buildings and look for targets there. There's surely a group or two trying to use one as a base of operations."

"I'll be on the lookout then." Shoji activated some of his gear. "You think the other teams are alright?"

"Bakugo's and Todoroki should be find on their own." Mineta pointed out. "There's basically nothing that can stop them. Everyone else….we might need to start praying for them." It was a sad day when she had no choice but to agree with the pervert.

"Why the fuck are you extras following me, your just slowing me down." Kirishima grinned, moving in closer to his buddy.

"Because we stick to you like glue. You'll never get rid of us."

"If you were glue I'd be able to use water."

"Then think of us like cement." Kaminari snicked as he followed behind them, Jiro following behind him. "Basically permanent."

"I can obliterate cement pretty easily too."

"What about the song you hear that gets stuck in your head then?" Jiro smirked. "Why have I never realized that teasing Bakugo during important exams just makes him boil like water?"

"Because anyone that's teamed up with him before usually tries to get away from him as much as he tries to do the same." Kaminari explained. "But if he can team up with Todoroki and escape All Might, then there's gotta be some merit to it."

"All of you will die very painful deaths."

"That's what you say, but we're still all here." Kirishima continued on. The fact he wasn't yelling was a massive improvement.

"They'll never find the bodies."

"So you actually went over to his house?" Jiro raised an ear jack. "How much yelling was there?"

"His mom and him once entered a shouting match, and lost my hearing for a minute." Kirishima smiled. "... Say, why did you two follow anyway?"

"I kinda wanted to do my own thing, and I figured Bakugo wouldn't give me any help at all." Smart.

"And I'm here to make sure Denki doesn't get into too much trouble on his own now that his gear stops him from going stupid. Trying to make sure it stays that way."

"Aww, you do care." Kaminari grinned.

"Yeah, whatever." The girl wasn't denying it. Definitely as Tsundere in the making. "Huh, really thought we would have run into other examinees by now. I'm not picking up anything."

"They're obviously scared." Sure, that was it.

"Whatever happens, we'll crush them with manly spirit!" Kirishima shouted out for motivation, before a loud squish came under his boot. "Eww, gross, I stepped in …"

"Kill … meeeee …." A horrifying blob of flesh with eyes and a mouth.

"WHAT IN THE NAME OF CRONIBURG IS THAT!?" Jiro stepped back, terrified.

"Um, hey there buddy." Kaminari slowly backed up as well, his whole body shaking. "Is that your qui-" He stepped on something squishy, instantly freezing and paling. "Jiro, please don't tell me what my foot is on."

"Alright, I won't tell you." She replied, turning her head. "But in that case, you might want to keep your eyes closed for the rest of the exam."

"Get it together, you wimps. They're obviously the extras taking the exam." Bakugo, like the man he was, kept walking through like it was normal. "Somebody here's been using their quirk on them, probably trying to either scare somebody off or set a trap." If they did it was a very good scare. Come on Kirishima, man up!


Todoroki looked up at the multi-colored students. "I found something more ridiculous than Iruma … a school of ninja heroes." Sure, he knew having a theme was somewhat important, but the absurdity had to have a limit somewhere.

"You do not get to call us ridiculous!" Shouted an orange one. "We dedicated every day of our training to being as stealthy as possible, and as effective as necessary!" Then why the hell was their suit so bright? Why the heck were they wearing every color except black, the color that helped them blend into the shadows?

"You're pretty loud for a ninja." He deadpanned, already done with today.

"And you're pretty arrogant for someone that wasn't even a runner up at the sport's festival!" The red one shouted.

"Did … did you base your entire attack on the sports festival?" He had to get some clarification for this. If so, this entire thing was even worse than he thought.

"Of course we did! You displayed everything about yourself! We couldn't help but take advantage of all that knowledge." The Blue one confirmed their idiocy.

"Yes, we did show you everything we had then. And then we grew up!" He narrowed his eyes. "Did no one expect multiple hero course students to grow over the time they spent training? Did you not think we developed new abilities or got a transfer from the general course?"

"Like that matters. Every year UA gets rushed, and every year, over half the students get eliminated in the second round." A green one shouted. "I was a second year student last year, I've seen it first hand!"

"So next year they will be weaker than us, thanks for the info." He slowly let himself get covered in fire and ice. "Any last words before I eliminate you?"

"Yes … Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Shadow what now? Suddenly there were multiple purple ninjas that weren't there before…he got so distracted by the ninja theme he forgot these people had actual quirks they could use. Annoying.


"Fear the Abyss, those who walk the mortal plane!" Toru heard Tokoyami yell as they were basically using him as a human shield, swatting away all the balls that were coming their way. Considering his hero name was based on a night god's, she should've expected more dialogue like this from him. "Is everyone one?"

"Yeah." She called out. "Sato, you got anything?"

"I can throw a ball hard, but that's all I've got at the moment. When it came to support gear they didn't offer much." Right, she was on the same boat unless she wanted to get rid of subtly altogether.

"Do you at least have enough sugar for emergencies?" She asked.

"Sugar is the one thing I have in spades actually. I'd worry myself over losing thoughts over losing sugar." That's a plus. "Can't you blind them?"

"Not without hitting Dark Shadow … then again if it's for the cause …"

"Oh sure, I just love how grateful everyone is right now." Dark Shadow said, completely enveloping Tokoyami. "Bad enough having so many literal bright and flashy quirks in class, we didn't need another one!" That was fair.

"Hey, I didn't ask for this, I just got it as a power to exploit. You want to do something else? Get rid of everyone here."

"Doing my best right now!" Another volley of balls was hit.

"They know I'm the only one capable of shielding everyone at the moment. No offense, but you two are easy targets." Tokoyami swatted away more balls. "Hagakure, go ahead and get ready to blind them, Sato, we'll hide behind you for cover. When everyone is disoriented, we'll climb on your back and you rush us out of here."

"Hey, don't I get a say?"

"No." They all spoke in usion. It was great to get an agreeable team, even if it wasn't Iruma-kun.


"Take that!" Ochako grabbed a guy trying to throw a ball at her, tossing her over her body and into the ground hard. "And that!" Another one was sent floating into the sky. "And that!" She had to admit, this was starting to get a little fun the more it carried on. No wonder why Bakugo loved fighting so much! The adrenaline was addicting!

"Keep it up, I'll keep them away!" Sero, her only partner when everyone was separated, grabbed the examinees she had in the air and threw them across the stadium. "I'll go ahead and get my point here."

"No, you and Mineta are our only ones who can keep them pinned, we need you to stay in the game." She shouted, holding one guy's arm as he screamed for mercy. "We need to regroup with everyone, then we'll take on some points for ourselves."

"Right, I almost forgot about that. Feels weird to be so important." It was a bit of an ego boost. "Do you have any idea where anyone else is?"

"I saw a flash of bright light and a huge shadow when I was in the air, so Toru and Tokoyami are in the same team. It's weird though, usually Iruma causes a scene around this point." She expected him to start yelling and giving away his position, causing everyone to attack him all at once. That's when she would swoop in and float him into the air with her as they rode off to safety!

"Well, this is the guy that becomes a wild animal the moment danger hits, so he's probably running around scaring off the other examinees." That was probably the case.

Ojiro once more batted off an enemy attack with his tail. "I've gotta say, I feel this is unfair." The team briefly looked at him. "For them. Everyone got scattered and somehow we ended up with two long range and two close range, all attackers. It feels like it's too easy."

"Yeah, I kinda feel like that too." Ashido agreed, melting a few oncoming balls with a veil of acid. "I haven't had an easier time taking an exam since I took down Nedzu with Iruma."

"You had Suzuki, the star of our class. It made sense since he dominated all." Aoyama posed as he shot yet another student.

"As concerned as I am about the whereabouts of Suzuki and the rest of our classmates, we mustn't give too much worry to their situations." Iida ordered. "All of them are capable fighters on their own. We have to trust that they can handle whatever predicament they currently find themselves in."

Ojiro nodded, he was probably fine. They just wished Suzuki didn't get lost all the time.


"Ha, this time everyone else got lost, not me." Iruma avoided all the rubble and stayed in the exact same spot he started in. He really was making improvements! "And they said I need a bell …. Now, where to go from here." He wondered. "These things only work for a short range." While the mask was capable of giving him literal eyes on the back of his head with cameras and stuff, he didn't have anything to look really far ahead.

Now looking around, it felt like he was walking in some sort of canyon or rock quarry. That black haired guy with the mirror face really messed up the ground. It was kinda like Cementoss-sensei's quirk if he was bad at shaping rocks. "Now where to find the others." He wanted to pass with his friends. Plus if he had that license, he had a chance to find Tomura and protect himself if things got messy.

"Oh, would you look at that, the crazy wolf kid is out in the open. Perfect for taking." He turned to mirror him, and a couple of other kids.

"Um excuse me, do you know where my friends are!? We have to regroup to knock you guys out!" He called out to them.

"Well, since you've asked so nicely, I'll be sure to tell them where you WERE when we eliminate you."

"But you're not going to eliminate me. Did you not understand me?" Were these guys idiots? He knew the furry guy said Ketsubutsu wasn't as good as UA but this was ridiculous. "Is Ms Joke a bad teacher or something? She seemed so nice."

"Did you just make fun of our teacher?" Suddenly Iruma was reminded of that time he got surrounded by a pack of mountain lions. "Kill him now." And everyone shot their balls right at him.

"Wolf Claw Style! Wolf Man Run!" He dug his hands into the ground thanks to the claws and started running, ducking and weaving around the balls as he got closer to them. He saw a ball come flying behind him thanks to his extra eyes, stretching a leg to kick it away. He grabbed one of the open balls and swung it at another student.

"Eeep." Her body went inside of her body like a turtle, but bigger.

"You're pretty good with evasion.." Another black haired student said from behind, throwing three balls at him that were glowing. "But these will hit you no matter what!" If they would hit him no matter what … he reached his hands forward, grabbing two of them, the third bouncing off between the two. "Oh bullshit!"

Not really. He could figure out how to dodge in dodgeball. Learning how to catch it was easy enough. "Iruma, help!" That sounded like…Ochako? Falling? Normally she would float, but she asked for help, so something was probably stopping her from doing so.

"ROCKET MAN!" He flared energy suit to twenty percent, catching the girl midfall. "You alright?" He looked at her….something was off.

"Yeah, thank you, Iruma. You've really helped me out." She smiled as the two of them got on their feet, but it wasn't the normal Ochako smile. This look had more curiosity in it, almost like a cat looking at something interesting. "You actually act like a hero!" She shouted, aiming her ball right at one of the sensor things on his chest.

He dodged it of course, but not without getting confused. "Why are you doing this? Why do you look like Ochako?" He asked as she swung that ball around like it was a knife…wait…something about that felt familiar.

"Already on a first name basis? Oh, she must be someone really special to you!" She flipped over him and grabbed him from behind. "I can't wait to figure out just how special…!" The way she moved…where had he seen this before…

"Toga?" He guessed, and that made the girl that looked like Ochako let go and freeze in place. "That's what your name was, right?"

"Yes, that..wait…how could…what…" The girl stammered, looking a bit red in the face. That was ruined by the ball coming between them.

"No idea what's with the infighting, but I'll take it!" Mirror him shouted with everyone else.

"We need to get out of here." He grabbed Toga, who hung onto his body as he prepared the new thing. "Static Rocket!" The thrusters in his back blasted them high into the sky, away from them. Now for a chat that would hopefully give him some answers.
