Chapter 4: Lover Tango

Review Replies

Ryuujin96: Awesome work on this chapter and I enjoyed reading it. I really liked how Izuku turns the tables on Eraserhead with a Sharingan Genjutsu, when Eraserhead tries to single him out. I also liked how Izuku got infinity on his ball throw and I liked Izuku finishing the 50 meter dash in less then a second. I was surprised you had Izuku and Kaguya be teamed together, because I remember thinking to myself, no way they would have them team up. Right before reading that you did in fact have Izuku and Kaguya team up for the battle trial. And I can't help but feel like you might have Ochako and Katsuki take the win. To subvert expectations for one, and because Izuku doesn't need a win in this AU. I continue to love Izuku and Ochako's interactions. I really liked Ochako's interactions with Kaguya. And I loved Katsuki and Ochako's interaction at the end of the chapter. I also love what you did with Katsuki's character. It's a shame he wasn't like this in canon. I look forward to reading the next chapter.

Dragon Emperor0: Hey, don't go throwing around possible plot points. If we do end up doing them, you'd be spoiling it for everyone else!

ThermalsniperN7: Yeah. That ain't cool.

Shadow Joestar: KO awesome chapter, the battle training is about to begin and Izuku's team is about to take on Katsuki's which is gonna be intense for the two rivals as they're about to show each other how strong they have gotten over the years

ThermalsniperN7: You said it best.

Dragon Emperor0: Yep.

Knightmare Lord: I look forward to seeing Izuku take Shoto and Monoma down a peg.

Dragon Emperor0: Ya know, I've been noticing this for awhile now. You seem to really have it out for Monoma and poor Shoto, huh? What'd the dense as bread pudding boy ever do to you?

ThermalsniperN7: It's probably because of how Shoto was early on. Monoma, though, I can understand.

Izuku and Kaguya slinked their way into the building where their match was being held, ducking behind corners and watching blind spots to avoid being blindsided.

The white haired beauty was especially effective at being on the lookout given her Byakugan, so she could see through walls and call out any potential ambushers.

"Hey watch that corner—!" Kaguya exclaimed as Katsuki suddenly came flying out of nowhere and nearly hitting the two with a large right hook.

"I got you." Izuku said as he held the girls in his arms, keeping her away from the explosion attack.

"Ready to fight, Deku?" Katsuki challenged as the viridian haired boy set his fiance down.

"Do you have a death wish?" The boy questioned as his Sharingan came alive. "Attacking my fiancé, big mistake." He growled, reaching to grab his blunted bokken.

"Is that supposed to scare me?" The explosive boy scoffed.

"Yes it is!" Izuku snapped before looking at his beloved. "Sweetie, go look for the bomb! I'll handle Kacchan!" He told her.

"Right!" The girl nodded before she ran ahead.

"Ballsy move, you think you can take me on your own?" The Pomeranian growled as he lunged at the boy, who dodged the attack and kicked him in the side into the side wall.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Izuku exclaimed as he breathed his flames at the boy in front of him.

"Oh fuck!" The bomber yelped as he got out of the way of the fire attack just in time for it to hit where he was.

Seconds later, a clay spider leapt from Katsuki's gauntlet and latched itself onto Izuku's shoulder, before self detonating—sending the Uchiha descendant flying through the walls behind him.

"Oof!" The Sharingan boy grunted as he crashed into the last wall. "Well, I'm gonna feel that later." He remarked with a groan.

"Aw sneak attack, Bakugo? What kind of a man pulls cheap crap like that?" Kirishima growled.

"But Midoriya managed to keep himself and Usagi from getting hit." Sero noted.

"Yes, and Young Bakugo is thinking like a villain since they like to use sneak attacks. Young Midoriya also had the reflexes to avoid the attack whilst keeping his partner safe. Take note everyone." All Might told them.

(Elsewhere)

"Okay, now I'm getting seriously pissed." Izuku groaned as he got up. "Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!" He yelled, clapping his hands together.

Then the building shook as trees started growing inside it, which made Katsuki have to struggle to maintain his balance as various parts of the floor were destroyed.

"Damn it!" The explosion user yelped as he leapt back. "Cut off… Shit." The blonde cursed as he looked around.

He couldn't find a way around, which meant he'd have to waste some time blasting his way through. This left him feeling aggravated, since this would give Kaguya ample time to get her part done.

"This is not going our way…" Katsuki groaned as he started blasting through the branches.

"Sorry!" Izuku called as he went to regroup with his lover.

(Elsewhere)

Meanwhile in the observatory…

"Deep Forest Emergence… It's just as amazing as the stories said." Momo said in awe.

"I don't think I'd want to get stuck in that mess." Kaminari nodded.

"Yeah, seems like an easy way to get lost." Sero hummed.

"The branches look very robust and sturdy, so Bakugo is going to be significantly delayed." Fumikage noted, seeing that the blonde bomber was going to be a while.

"Good strategy, I'd say." Jiro nodded.

(Elsewhere)

Meanwhile, with Kaguya…

'Hm, so Ochako isn't quite as alert as one should be when guarding something.' The lavender eyed girl noted as she snuck into the room, seeing the brunette just staring off into space a bit.

Well, no one said guard duty was fun…

"Okay, I'm bored." The brunette sighed as she caused the bomb to float as she sat on top of it, causing Kaguya to curse as she realized what her friend just did.

She just made it harder for the Byakugan user to complete her objective, so unless her lover showed up to help, she was in a pickle.

"Of all the times to not know wall walking…" The girl groaned.

(Elsewhere)

Meanwhile with Izuku…

Izuku was one floor away from regrouping with Kaguya to end the match—but he soon stopped in his tracks when he heard something behind him.

Turning, he saw that Katsuki had managed to catch up faster than he planned and was flying via explosions at him!

As the blonde landed across from him… his gauntlets flashed red.

"I'm all loaded up." He said, standing up, his body shimmering in nitro sweat.

"... You had the gauntlets designed to store up your sweat, didn't you?" The Uchiha descendant asked flatly, seeing what his explosive friend meant.

"That's right! The more I save up, the stronger the blast, and blasting through those branches was a hefty workout!" The red eyed boy grinned as he primed his right gauntlet to fire.

"And you think I'm just going to let you get me with such a blast?" Izuku questioned as he started moving his hand up to try and slip Katsuki into a Genjutsu.

It actually worked, and Katsuki suddenly saw a murder of crows flying around him, cawing loudly.

"What the– GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!" He yelled in panic as he tried to swat away at the imaginary corvids. In his present state, Izuku knocked him out.

"That's better." The boy sighed as he started heading towards Kaguya again.

But unseen to him were several clay spiders that hid themselves in his costume…

(Elsewhere)

Back with Kaguya, she was trying to get to the fake bomb but was having a hard time since Ochako made it float out of her reach. This made the pale girl irritated since time was running out.

"Well isn't this just perfect…" Kaguya sighed as she tried to get the girl with her staff.

"Sorry Kaguya." Ochako called down to her.

It was around that time that Izuku came into the room.

"Okay, what's the situation?" He asked.

"Ochako has the weapon out of reach; I can't get to it." The boy's fiance replied.

"I'll see what I can do… About… It…" Izuku nodded slowly, before two familiar spiders popped out of his collar. "Son of a—." He uttered.

BOOM!

Then he was obscured by smoke, Kaguya coughing as she used a wind palm to force it all away… And saw Izuku was shirtless, albeit with a few minor burns.

"... Best thing to happen in this whole lesson." She grinned appreciatively while Ochako blushed a bit.

She knew Izuku was taken, but she was still a teenage girl who knew what an attractive male looked like.

"Urg, dang it Kacchan…" The boy growled, right as even more spiders started popping out of every available hiding place, while the sound of clapping and walking could be heard coming their way.

"You forgot about the capture tape, Deku." Katsuki smirked as he walked into view. "But that was actually impressive; I thought you'd be taken down by that one." He added with a nod.

"And now you have me surrounded…" The Uchiha sighed. "Well played." He muttered.

"So… What happens now?" Ochako wondered as she continued sitting on the floating dummy bomb.

"Now we wait for the clock to run out in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…" The blonde replied before the buzzer sounded.

"The villain team wins!" All Might exclaimed over the speakers.

"… Well, this didn't go the way we planned." Kaguya sighed.

"Yeah…" Izuku nodded.

(Later)

"The MVP of this match is Young Uraraka. Can anyone guess why?" All Might questioned as he looked over his students.

"Sir, I can." Momo replied as she stepped up. "Midoriya, Usagi and Bakugo didn't make many obvious mistakes, but they did slip up in not taking Uraraka's ability to keep the bomb out of reach." She continued.

"Due in small part to me forgetting to invest training time in wall walking." Kaguya spoke up with a sigh. "If I knew that one, the match would've been ours." She added.

"I would've done just that, had Kacchan not jumped me." Izuku nodded.

"Uraraka, however, was able to stick to her role and kept the bomb out of reach for the whole match. Had things not gone the way they did, things would have been vastly different." Momo continued.

"Let's not forget how Kacchan had us pinned with all those boom spiders." Izuku nodded.

"Yes, but that was a risky gambit given the hypothetical stakes. He took advantage of the fact that this was training. He didn't respect the spirit of the trial." Momo stated.

"Piss off!" The Pomeranian barked.

"Um… That about sums it up." All Might nodded dumbly.

(Later)

Izuku sighed as Kaguya leaned on him as the next matches began, the girl almost falling asleep as she listened to him.

"Mmm… I wanna take a nap…" She groaned tiredly.

"I'm interested in seeing what our classmates are capable of." The boy nodded.

The Sharingan boy did observe, and he learned that Shoji could use his quirk to mimic any body part while Shoto had enough power to freeze an entire building. Momo could make whatever she wanted so long as she knew the structure of it, and Jiro could hear nearly anything with her earjacks.

That was just the tip of the iceberg.

"These fights are making me wet." Kaguya whispered as the last fight began to wrap up.

"We'll head to a love hotel when the day is over." Izuku whispered back in reply.

Katsuki, meanwhile, couldn't keep himself from feeling a little threatened by what he saw.

When they were in middle school, Izuku was his only competition—now? He wasn't so sure anymore.

(Later)

As Izuku sat in his seat in class jotting down some notes, he failed to notice Katsuki taking an early leave.

It was easy to get engrossed with what he was doing.

Kaguya didn't notice because she was taking an interest in the fact that during the lessons, she saw several potential match making opportunities.

Particularly Kaminari and Jiro.

"I'm thinking of grabbing something to eat after class, wanna come with? What kind of stuff do you like?" Kaminari questioned.

"Bao Buns and Barbecue." Jiro replied. "What about you?" She questioned.

"Oh I'm always down for a burger." The boy replied.

"Somehow that doesn't surprise me." The earphone girl nodded as Kaguya leaned in.

"Well I happen to have a few coupons if you guys want some." The white haired girl smiled, causing the two to jump.

"U-Um, what?!" The blonde yelped in surprise.

"Coupons. I got some to a barbecue place." Kaguya smiled, holding up said slips.

"Seriously? Sweet!" Kaminari grinned as he took the coupons. "Ha! These're perfect!" He smiled.

"Hey, yeah! I've been wanting to get these exact coupons for a while!" Jiro nodded.

"Glad I could be of assistance." The pale girl smiled in satisfaction.

Izuku couldn't help but smile at her antics, before he got up and decided to text Katsuki to see where he was.

"Meet me at the usual place later?" He typed, sending the message to the blonde as he got up, bag in hand.

"Sure. I need someone to talk to anyway." Katsuki texted back.

"See you there later tomorrow morning. I got something I need to take care of." Izuku typed back as he gestured for Kaguya to follow him.

"Is it time?" She asked with a grin.

"It is indeed time." Izuku confirmed with a smirk. "Any special requests before we get there?" He asked as they went to a love hotel.

"I want you to gangbang me with shadow clones." The girl replied.

"Gladly." The Sharingan user purred into her ear, causing his fiance to shiver as they reached their destination and checked into a room.

It was time to go buck wild in the bedroom…

Dragon Emperor0: In hindsight, we probably should've expected Katsuki to have a Plan B for if Izuku got past him to the weapon room. He's trained with Izuku since they were kids, he knows his skills.

ThermalsniperN7: That's a benefit of knowing your fellow fighter. Also, sorry about this being short.

Dragon Emperor0: We honestly didn't have much in mind in the way of spectacle for this chapter, since we're trying to save that for the USJ arc, and our attention was partly elsewhere, so we decided to make this chapter a simple one.

ThermalsniperN7: Yeah. A little simplicity never hurt anyone. Anyway, see you next time.
