"Hello again class," Aizawa says as he walks into the room. "I trust you all enjoyed your combat exercise yesterday."
"Yes sir." the class says.
"Good, now what you will be doing today is very important for your hero careers."
"Please not another quirk test," most of the class thinks simultaneously.
"I, of course, mean the choosing of a class representative."
"Oh normal high school stuff." the class sighs in relief
"This is very important to being a hero because quite frankly if you have the energy and patience to wrangle together a bunch of high schoolers with superpowers then you should be more than capable of running a hero team." Aizawa continues ignoring the class's sighs of relief.
A loud chorus of variations of Pick Me floods Aizawa's ears as everyone tries to plead their case for being the new representative. The only people not participating in this flood of desperate cries are Izuku, Shote, and Iida.
"Sir, how does a class representative get chosen?" Iida asks raising his hand causing the whole class to stop asking to be picked as they realize that they might have been pleading to the wrong person for the job.
"I don't care. Do it however you want I'm taking a nap." Aizawa says zipping up a sleeping bag and going to sleep.
"But sir-" the snores of his teacher cut off Iida as he stands there in frustration.
"I wonder where he even gets all those sleeping bags?" Kaminari says.
"Probably keeps them behind his desk or something," Jiro replies.
"That… actually really wouldn't surprise me?" Izuku says. "...So how are we doing this? Do we vote or something?"
"Yes, that is an excellent idea, Midoriya. If we all vote, we can see who the class believes the best person for the job would be." Iida says. "Does everyone agree with a voting-based system of choosing the representative?"
"That does seem like a fair way to do it," Tokoyami says.
"Yeah let's do it that way," Ojiro says.
"No the person who leads us should have to win a battle against everyone else in this class," Bakugo says.
"So not you?" Kirishima says snickering slightly.
"WHAT'D YOU SAY YOU LITTLE PUNK!" Bakugo yells.
"I mean you lost to Izuku so… yeah it doesn't seem likely that you can beat anyone in this class," Mineta says.
Izuku's eye twitches slightly as he hears this, he glares slightly at Mineta but before he can say anything Momo says "I'm pretty sure that no one here could beat Izuku at this point based on his performance yesterday with the possible exception of Shote."
The whole class stops talking for a second thinking about what their chances would be of beating Izuku until Mina says "Yeah that does sound about right I mean we all saw him yesterday beating the asses of our classmates."
"Yeah I mean he even took the time to try to teach Ururaka how to fight while in the middle of trial. That just shows confidence in one's skills." Sato says.
"More like overconfidence." Mineta snickers.
"Overconfidence is to have too much faith in your abilities," Shote speaks up from the back of the class " That was not overconfidence after all Izuku did manage to beat Iida in the span of a few seconds once he joined the fight."
"It is true I barely felt I had any time to do anything other than dodge his attacks and even that was just pushing me into a corner so I wouldn't be able to dodge," Iida says.
"I forgot to mention you have to choose a class representative today or I will be picking for you and it won't be someone you want. Now be quieter I'm trying to sleep." Aizawa interrupts as the whole class gulps and they begin to refocus on the topic assigned to them.
"I say we just do a simple anonymous vote." Izuku speaks up "It won't cause anyone's feelings to be hurt if they don't get any votes and, let's be realistic here, most people would just vote for themselves if this was an open election so at least this gives some ability for people to vote for other candidates without being embarrassed that they didn't want to vote for themselves."
The whole class (minus the class Pomeranian) nods in agreement with this idea as they all get out a piece of paper from their bags and write down who they voted for and put it in a box at the front of the classroom that Izuku grabbed from a shelf at the back of the classroom. To make it more likely to be anonymous they woke up Aizawa, much to his annoyance, to count the votes and place the final tally up on a whiteboard.
"Wait, how did I get 3 votes?" Izuku says in a surprised tone as he looks at the whiteboard. "Damn it, I wanted to keep a low profile given our mission today. At least Toru saw my signal and voted for herself. That makes this easier for me." Izuku thinks to himself as he hears Iida on the other side of the classroom.
"Not a single person voted for me…" Iida looks down, stressed and angry at himself "How could this have happened."
"Don't be so hard on yourself Iida I'm sure you would've been a great class rep," Ururaka says leaning over and patting his back.
"Did we ever specify what would happen if we had a tie?" Momo asks as she points towards the board. "Huh?" Most of the class says as they reexamine the board to see the following:
Izuku Midoriya: 3 votes
Momo Yaoyorozu: 3 votes
"Maybe we should have them do a debate or something as to why they should be picked," Sero says.
"Don't bother, I yield to Momo," says Izuku.
"WHAT!" the class yells.
"Well, I voted for her so I don't see why I can't give her the class rep position since it was a tie. So I'll take the vice class rep position." Izuku continues as he walks up to Momo and says shaking her hand "I yield to you the position of class representative. Use the title well."
"Thank you Izuku though I must ask why you voted for me?" Momo asks.
"You're easily one of the smartest and most perceptive people in this class as was shown by your breakdown of my battle with Bakugo yesterday and the fact you were the only other person to notice that the person with the lowest score wouldn't be expelled. Those two instances earned my respect for your knowledge. Meanwhile your earning of the number one spot in the quirk aptitude test and your victory against Jiro and Kaminari with only Mineta" "HEY!" Mineta yells which everyone ignores as Izuku continues without pause "As a teammate earned my respect for your skills. In my eyes, you have more than earned the position as class representative."
"I… Thank you Izuku that is very kind of you." Mome says in a stunned tone "I will strive to earn the respect you have given me."
Izuku bows his head towards her as she walks up to the front of the classroom to begin fulfilling her duties as class representative.
Several hours later at lunch, Izuku sits down at a table with Mina, Iida, Shote, and Ururaka. "Man Lunch Rush makes some good food," Mina says as she happily skips over and sits down at the table.
"That he does though I expect nothing less from UA High," Iida says proudly.
"I suppose that makes sense plus doesn't he have a food-based quirk or something?" Ururaka adds in.
"Yeah, something about being able to make food out of the particles in the air or something," Izuku says.
"I don't see what all the fuss is about my food tastes the same as anywhere else," Shote says.
"That's because you're eating cold soba without anything on it. It's very hard to be innovative with that," Mina says while pointing at Shote's dish.
"Is that now how you're supposed to eat soba that's how I was always eating it growing up as a reward for breaking through a limit during training." Shote replies staring at Mina.
"Dear god she's being serious." Mina thinks to herself as she hands Shote some of the sauce she was using for her ramen. "Try it I promise it will improve the flavor," Mina says smiling.
Shote looks at Mina suspiciously but pours some of it on her soba and tries it. "This is really good," Shote says as she starts eating her soba.
"Glad you like it." Mina says as she turns to Izuku and says "So quick question Izuku?"
Izuku looks down slightly in an attempt to make sure no one sees him blushing "Yes Mina?"
"Why'd you give up the position of being the class rep I mean you caused me to waste my vote on you if you didn't want it you should've said something," Mina says as she smiles happily at Izuku despite her slightly harsh words.
"Wait you voted for me?" Izuku says looking up at Mina.
"Yeah I mean you're intelligent, a good fighter, and attractive who wouldn't want to vote for you?" Mina says.
Izuku's face turns into a tomato as he starts stammering out "I uh I-" Izuku pauses and takes a breath "Thank you Mina that is very kind." meanwhile in Izuku's thoughts "HOLY SHIT A GIRL CALLED ME ATTRACTIVE!"
"Yeah, I thought you would've been a good class rep too," Ururaka says mercifully stopping the embarrassing interaction from continuing any longer.
"I thought that as well," Iida says.
Izuku looks at the three of them and says "Wait you three are the ones who voted for me?"
"I thought that was obvious," Iida says.
"Huh I mean I appreciate your confidence in me but I don't think that I would have been a good class rep that's why I voted for Momo," Izuku says "I'm honestly surprised that anyone voted for me let alone enough votes to get a tie."
"Hey Izuku," Momo says as she walks over to the table.
"Hey, Momo. Want to join us?" Izuku says in a friendly tone.
"No, we need to discuss the plans for what we will do as the class reps," Momo says.
"You mean as you being the head rep and me the vice rep right?" Izuku says pausing.
"No, I managed to convince the school that since it was a tie we could be co-class reps that way we would be able to share the responsibilities and stuff," Momo says in an excited tone. "It would make it far easier for us to keep the class in balance if both of us were class reps wouldn't you say."
"Oh, that's great news." Izuku says while thinking "SHIT! There goes my ability to be able to lay low. It's bad enough I had to be vice class rep but with this, I have no chance of avoiding increased scrutiny from the teachers." Izuku mentally pauses/slaps himself for being an idiot. "Wait who would be a better spy than the class rep they won't be as suspected as much as the normal kids due to the extra trust put into them and this will be easier for me to be able to see information I'm not supposed to because the class reps are often called in to discuss problems within their class with their teachers. Yes, I can use this to my advantage."
"... So I was thinking that we could go to another table to discuss possible plans." Momo finishes as Izuku comes back to the world of the paying attention to your surroundings.
"Wouldn't it be easier for us to discuss it here where we have other classmates to bounce the ideas off of?" Izuku asks.
"No, after all, it is likely that the teachers may ask us to do something that the rest of the class can't know about, and if we just disappeared later it would be far more suspicious than if we just left now," Momo replies.
"Fair enough," Izuku says as they get up to go to a different table. "You know when we're not doing this you should join us at that table it could be fun."
"Maybe I will," Momo says.
As they walk past the table where Toru is sitting Izuku mildly taps his legs twice. In response, Izuku feels Toru nods her head and says to her table mates "Excuse me for a second I think I forgot something up at Lunch Rush." the people she is sitting with look at her quizically to which she simply sits there for a second. Realizing (or at least thinking they're realizing) what she means they nod and move out of the way for her to go to the bathroom.
Upon getting to the bathroom, Toru goes into a stall, switches her clothing with a custom costume made out of her hair, and gets into an air vent (which in this universe follows the Spider-Man PS4 game logic instead of how these things are actually built), and bites down on a transmitter in her mouth turning off the signal transmitting from it.
Meanwhile outside the school. "So those two knuckleheads finally got into position. Heh, took them long enough," Nana says as she sits near the edge of campus away from the annoying human sacks of garbage (sorry, I believe the official term now is paparazzi) attempting to storm the gate. She cracks her knuckles and walks over to the front gate with the paparazzi saying "Well then, let's get to work."
"That's why I think that having punishments for people who are late to class is a bad ide-" Izukuis interrupted by alarms going off all over the school.
"Isn't that the villain alarm?" Momo asks. "What is it doing going off? Are we under attack?"
"ALL STUDENTS PLEASE REPORT TO YOUR DESIGNATED SAFETY ZONES. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL." Principal Nezu's voice comes over the intercom.
"Well,l that answers that question," Momo mumbles as she turns around and yells out to the classes at lunch. "All right, you heard the teachers report to the designated safety zone."
All the people in the lunchroom pause for a moment, then what can best be described as a tsunami of people rushes towards the door each one trying to get to the safety zone faster than the one before.
Both Izuku and Momo are pushed into a window by a flood of people where they see the paparazzi storming the campus.
"You've got to be kidding me," Toru overhears Ectoplasm as she sits quietly in the vent above the teacher's lounge "How'd they get in here?"
"Who knows but they somehow managed to turn off all our security systems and got into campus so we need to go right now to stop them," Snipe says.
"Hold on a second these are peaceful protestors we can't just force them out without it looking bad in the press," Midnight says.
"They just broke into our campus without our permission! At this point, they have committed several crimes and we are more than in our right as heroes to stop them!" Snipe yells.
"That may be true but think of the headlines 'Heroes brutally repress protestors' 'Protestors sent to jail by UA High' No we wait for the cops to get here then we let them handle this," Midnight replies.
"... Fine but we should at least go out there to make sure that the press can't see any of our students," Snipe concedes reluctantly.
"That we can agree upon," Ectoplasm says as they all leave the room.
Toru waits a few seconds until she doesn't hear any more footsteps and then slowly lowers herself out of the vent and into the teacher's lounge where she quickly goes over to the open computer, pulls up the schedule for the next few weeks, and downloads it onto a flash drive that she puts into a pocket in her custom costume. Before she goes up into the vent again to escape she looks down from the window at the large crowd of students listening to Izuku on a wall with a megaphone and she chuckles softly to herself and thinks "Nice one Izuku."
Several minutes earlier:
"Momo I need you to make me a megaphone!" Izuku yells at Momo as they're being pushed into the wall.
"Why… oh got it," Momo says as she uses her powers to create Izuku a megaphone which he quickly grabs onto. After a few seconds of waiting for a lull in the surge of people, Izuku launches himself into the air hitting the ceiling and quickly launching himself forward till he hits the exit sign above the door where everyone is leaving.
"EVERYBODY STOP!" Izuku yells into the megaphone his words carrying across the whole hall. "It's just the fucking press not some villains. And why are we all running like a bunch of fucking civilians? We are heroes in training we should fucking act like it! If we can't handle some paparazzi getting into a building how are we going to go and fight any villains when we graduate from here? Now pull yourselves the hell together and walk calmly to your safety zone. Don't show these goddamn press pieces of shit that we were scared. Hold your head high and get to the safety area." The class of wannabe heroes nod their heads and calmly go to the safety area without any more incidents.
As Izuku lands back on the ground he hears "That was amazing Izuku!" from Mina as she runs up to him and hugs him. once again turning him into a tomato, as the rest of class 1a joins them.
"Impressive indeed," Iida says.
"Yeah really manly," Kirishima says.
"Meh, it wasn't that impressive," Mineta comments sullenly.
"Shut up Mineta you couldn't do half of what he just did," Jiro says.
"I could…" Mineta says in a whiney tone.
They all arrive back at the homeroom and sit back in their seats with Izuku trying very hard to stop blushing. However, as Izuku looks over at Toru's seat and sees her back in her chair before the rest of them he feels her nods slightly making him feel much calmer knowing their mission was completed.
"Wait how'd you get back before us Toru?" Momo asks.
"I was using the bathroom when the alarms went off so I didn't have to go through the crowd of giant people to get back," Toru explains.
Momo nods as she does remember seeing her leaving the cafeteria when she was talking with Izuku about potential things to do as class reps.
"Hello everyone sorry for that interruption to your lunch it seems that the press managed to break into campus by turning off our security system so we had to deal with that." Nezu's voice comes over the intercom. "However due to the fact that this will be a lot of paperwork for all the teachers here at UA, you all have the rest of the day off to do whatever you like as long as you stay inside the school campus."
Class 1a cheers as they proceed to talk amongst themselves for the rest of the day.
"Welcome back cuz Toru, did you guys get it?" Nana says as Izuku and Toru walk through one of Kurogiri's portals.
Toru takes it out of her bag, slides it across the bar counter, and says in a confident tone "One completely downloaded UA schedule as requested. Everything from how till next Christmas."
"Nice job you two, I'm going to go give this to Master and we'll schedule a day for the attack," Nana says as she goes and walks out of the room leaving Toru and Izuku alone.
"So," Toru says as they sit down on the couch, and after Izuku has taken a sip of his drink "when are you going to ask Mina out?"
"I don't know. Would she even want to go out with me I mean she just seems so far above me-" Izuku says as he pauses and looks at his drink and looks at Toru and says "Did you seriously just drug me with truth serum?"
"Yes, now I think you should ask her out tomorrow after all she seems to really like you," Toru says nonchalantly skipping over the questionable efficacy of the drugging (I mean they are villains so what ethics really).
"Wait she does?" Izuku turns towards her stunned.
"Dude, you need to be less dense I mean Jesus I thought they only made bad comic book characters this dense. She literally called you intelligent and attractive if that isn't just asking to be asked out I don't know what the hell is."
"You were on the other side of the cafeteria how did you hear that?" Izuku says avoiding the insults entirely.
"She told me during the free period but back on topic ASK HER OUT!" Toru yells at him.
"Did you start the truth serum intervention without me? Dang it Toru, I told you to wait." Nana says as she walks back into the room sans flash drive. "Now then Izuku tell me about Mina."
"She's beautiful, kind, and outgoing. Just the most amazing person I've ever met." Izuku says as he struggles against the truth serum.
Nana whistles as she says, "Well, then ask her out. I mean if you like her and based off of what Toru has told me she likes you it seems like this should be easy."
"Much as I would like to wouldn't that cause a problem with the mission since there would be a conflict of interest," Izuku says confidently thinking he found a loophole to get out of this conversation.
"If you are in a romantic relationship with her it would actually cause you to be more likely to convince her to join our side so no it wouldn't be," Toru says.
"But… shit. I ran out of excuses. And it's not like I don't want to ask her out after all she is so pretty and kind and sweet… shit." Izuku says.
"What's wrong cuz?" Nana asks as she leans forward slightly with her face slightly more serious as she thinks there's a problem.
Izuku looks up at Nana and says, "I think I love her."
Nana smiles as she grabs Izuku's shoulder and whispers in his ear"Well then Izuku let me give you some cousinly advice: ASK HER OUT!"
"Jesus, you don't need to yell," Izuku says as he rubs his ear. "I mean I just… I just… Would she even-"
"YES!" Toru yells.
"But-" Izuku begins to say.
"No, here is what you are going to do Izuku. I have Mina's number because I talk to people and I have everyone in a group chat." Toru says.
"Wait, how did you get my number? I don't even have a phone." Izuku interrupts.
"I managed to convince Master to get you a phone since most high schoolers have one." Nana helpfully answers.
"Now then, you are going to text her right now and ask her to go out with you tomorrow night. Then we are going to help you plan the best date you can think of for the rest of the night." Toru says.
After several seconds of pause, Izuku sighs and says, "Fine. I'll ask her out."
Conversation via text:
Izuku: Hello Mina?
Mina: Yes, is this Izuku?
Izuku: Yes.
Mina: So what's up?
Izuku: I would like to go out with you tomorrow night.
Mina: … Izuku are you asking me on a date?
Izuku: Yes.
Mina: Then yes, I'll meet you tomorrow after school.
Izuku: Okay, I will see you tomorrow.
Mina: See you tomorrow handsome,
At the Ashido household, a high-pitched squeal of joy rang through the house as Mina began to plan her outfit for her date the next day with Izuku.
Meanwhile, at the League of Villains Headquarters, hours of what can best be described as pain commenced as Izuku was put through the wringer on what he was going to do with Mina on the date.
Author's Note: Hello everyone I hope you enjoyed the chapter. I hope you liked the twist of Iida not being the class rep because I believe that it should have been Momo after all she got the second most votes. #JusticeForMomo anyway I also hope you enjoyed the in-depth showing of how the schedule was stolen after all the show didn't really show much besides the press storming the campus. The next chapter will be a break chapter as you will all witness my horrible attempt at writing a date scene. Anyway, please feel free to review the piece if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions on how I can write better until next time I hope you all have a great day.
