Chapter 41: You're Licensed
If the first half of the Provisional License Exam was to test the student's combat abilities, then the second half was to test their ability to rescue and confront civilians.
Sounded simple enough.
While Ochako questioned why and how the HPSC was able to detonate the entire previous testing site for this, she had to admit, it made for an impressive spectacle that added realism to the second part of their test. Though, Mera's presentation skills could still use some work…
"Oh, no. There has been a terrorist attack that has decimated the entire city. It's up to you Heroes to save all the injured civilians. And don't worry, none of this is real. All the civilians are actors from the Help Us Company. However, you should still act like this is a real emergency."
Looking around the newfound destruction, Ochako couldn't help but wonder if this was supposed to resemble what happened to Kamino Ward after All For One's rampage.
"Anyways, you all begin with a set number of points that acts as your grade. Points will be added or subtracted based on your performance. Time starts in ten minutes."
"Everyone, gather around!" Iida announced. "Yaoyorozu and I have a strategy!"
Himiko Toga, currently playing the role of Camie Utsushimi, watched over both her current "classmates" and the UA students over at the comfortable position of a wall.
"I take it you're the ones who beat Shishikura? I would like to apologize for his actions," the hairy guy, Mora, bowed to Bakugou and his buddies. "He has a tendency to force his ideals on others. That being said, I still would like to have a good relationship between UA and Shiketsu."
Toga wanted to bite the inside of her lip when hearing that. Friendly relationships with Bakugou? That sounded like a bad joke. She and the rest of the League were aware of what he did to Midoriya when the two of them were kids. While a small part of her appreciated that his shittiness was just out in the open (as opposed to the masks everyone Himiko knew wore), he was still an asshole as a brat. At least he seemed to have cleaned up his act now.
She decided to tune out the rest of the conversation between the explosive teen and the furball. Himiko wasn't like Kodai, so she could actually control herself to not strangle Bakugou whenever she got the slightest chance. But that didn't mean she was actively going to listen to whatever crap fell out of his mouth. She had other targets to check in on, after all.
Todoroki seemed to be marching towards Yoarashi, and asking him if he had a problem with the two-toned boy. Yoarashi, surprisingly enough, did admit that he had a problem with Endeavor, and apologized for what happened between the two of them, especially after what he learned from the HPSC leak. Todoroki, meanwhile, seemed absolutely clueless.
As Yoarashi explained what kind of beef they supposedly had, or whatever small microaggression Todoroki did back before UA or whatever the hell he was talking about, Himiko kept an eye on Shishikura. If this operation was gonna be a success, she needed to make sure that all three of the Shiketsu students were in place. Thank goodness for the outside help…
When the ten minutes finished up, the students returned back into the coliseum, with all the rubble around them now filled with "civilians" that "needed" their "help."
"Thank you all for coming back," Mera announced. "Alright, at the sound of the bell, the second half of the Provisional License Exam will begin. Let's just get this over with, please…"
RIIINGGG!
And with that, they were off. Class 1-A divided into different teams based on their different abilities to maximize the amount of people "saved." Shinso and Iida, along with any birds Koda sent, would act as the scouts to alter the others of where there are injured civilians. Heavy-hitters like herself, Todoroki, and Katsuki (among a few others) would take care of the debris, while those with more dexterity and charisma, such as Shoji, Sato, and Kirishima, would carry them back to where Yaomomo and Hagakure were "administering" first aid.
In principle, it was a sound strategy, but in reality…
"No! Don't save me!" one of the "kids" said. "I only have a slight injury! See? You should prioritize saving those with more serious wounds first! Minus ten points!"
Ah, I get it, the brown-haired girl said. In the last test, all those cameras and sensors were able to tell who passed, but in this one, the "citizens" are the ones who are grading us…
"Oh, man, that's bad…" Todoroki mumbled, examining the "injuries" of his faux civilian.
"No! Don't say that! You're supposed to comfort the civilians! Minus five points!"
…This is gonna be a long second half, isn't it? Ochako internally groaned.
BOOOOOM!
An explosion rattled the stadium, as everyone looked over to the perpetrator. It wasn't Katsuki, both Ochako and the rest of her class could tell that much. From the destroyed wall, several men in black bodysuits and white padding exited the wall, and along with them was…
Huh? Gang Orca? Ochako's jaw dropped at that. What's he doing here?!
"I would like to remind everyone that this is a simulated terrorist attack," Mera's voice ran through the stadium. "We never said that the terrorists had left. Good luck, Heroes."
"Oh, you've gotta be kidding me…" Ojiro groaned.
The ninth wielder of One For All was right there with him. Gang Orca was on the top of the Hero charts, taking him down would be like a bunch of mice trying to swarm a cat. Was it possible? Sure. But in order to do it, it would take a lot of coordination and a lack of fear.
"Alright, change of plans!" Iida shouted. "Anyone capable of fighting the Villains as opposed to rescue, go now! Those who have a bigger talent for rescue, remain where you are! Our comrades will protect the civilians and those who are continuing the relief effort!"
Koda nodded. "Right!"
Pink lighting erupted from the One For All user's body, as she headed straight towards the biggest problem on the battlefield right now: Gang Orca. It was kind of ironic in her mind; she wanted to be a Rescue Hero when she was a kid, and now, in order to "save" these people, she had forgo direct relief aid, in favor of taking down the "Villain" before he could harm anyone.
Life had a sense of humor, it seems.
Kugo Sakamata, better known to the world as the Aqua Hero: Gang Orca, looked over to the artificial wreckage of the exercise, as his "minions" charged towards the fledgling Heroes, with some of them protecting the "civilians," and others trusting that they'd be safe.
Good. Heroes needed to know that they were able to rely on one another. Every one of them had an aspect that they were good at, and it was important to know when to utilize it. If these young Heroes couldn't trust each other, then they had no chance of passing.
The ground beneath him began to tremble, as Kugo saw that some fluffy-haired kid had their hands in the dirt. Cute. Vibrations such as those were probably more than enough to cause his Sidekicks to fall off-balance, but it would take a lot more than that to even faze Gang Orca.
Using his Quirk, the killer whale of a man disrupted the teen's vibration with his own sonar attack, before charging right towards him and sending the poor kid flying with a single hit. Well, that was one "Hero" down. And given that there was now a bunch of ice climbing up his foot all of a sudden, it looks like the kid with the red-and-white hair making it was next.
"Really?" Kugo snorted. "Trying to take me down all by yourself?"
"Who said anything about that?"
The orca-themed man knew something was off. His instincts were proven right as he blocked a strong kick with his forearm. He recognized that pink lightning anywhere. The so-called "Symbol of Hope" herself, Ochako Uraraka. He shouldn't have been surprised to see her here.
Regardless, the Pro Hero adapted quickly, grabbing Uraraka's leg faster than she could react, and sent her flying. Not that it did much help. An aspect of her Quirk was to negate the effects of gravity, and he could clearly see that, as she didn't even hit the ground. Well done.
He knew she'd come back hard, but that was a problem for future Kugo. Right now, he had to deal with the Todoroki kid, as he was the one keeping his Sidekicks frozen in ice. Sending another sonic attack towards the peppermint-haired boy, Gang Orca was surprised when the Todoroki boy was sent crashing down to the ground, not from the attack, but by some wind-based maneuver by that Shiketsu student. Was he trying to save Endeavor's kid?
It didn't matter. The two of them seemed to be talking about something, and that was the perfect time to take them down. Distracted Heroes were always the first ones to end up dead. Running towards the two of them Kugo prepared to ram his fists into their chests, but suddenly –
BOOM!
What?! Kugo looked around to see that the brown-haired boy from earlier was the one causing the ground beneath him to shake. How was this possible?! He should have still been rendered unconscious from the sonic blast he received! Was his Quirk responsible for this quick recovery? It was certainly possible, as it seemed to deal with vibrations, given that he was applying it to the ground to mimic an earthquake. Perhaps he had a built-in immunity…
"HEY! EYES ON ME!"
WHAM!
Kugo felt a strong kick to the head, as Uraraka swung down from the air down to the dirt using some sort of dark tendrils. Shit. The little chestnut-haired girl began to run circles around Kugo, unleashing a purple cloud that began to wrap around him. She had smoke pellets of some kind? The orca-themed Hero roared, blowing the smoke away. What was even the point of that…?
Looking around the now-clear area, he could see Uraraka standing a few meters away from him, her Quirk clearly activated. Was this some sort of challenge? No… wait a minute…
Looking past the girl, Kugo scanned the area to see that the Todoroki boy and the Shiketsu brat were both gone. That was her plan! She was distracting him as the two of them escaped!
"LOVE YOUR PASSION, GANG ORCA, SIR! BUT WE HAVE TO STOP YOU NOW!"
Above me! Looking up, Kugo saw two figures, the two boys. But before he could do anything, a torrent of winds and flames engulfed him. They didn't seem to be touching his body, rather, they were just circling around him. He began to feel weak… They're trying to dehydrate me…
A clever tactic. But if they wanted to actually make it work, they would need more heat and a longer time to do it. A quick sonic attack gave Kugo the opening he needed, rushing out of the pillar of flames, to see the two teenagers getting accosted by his Sidekicks, and their elemental collaboration beginning to weaken. No point staying here any longer…
WHAM!
Blocking another attack from Uraraka, the Pro Hero snorted. Was she really planning to try and take him down by herself? She had a better chance if she tried that while he was still wrapped in fire, but now that her two companions were busy fighting off his Sidekicks, there was no –
"GRAB HIM!"
"What the –?!"
He couldn't move his arms. He could see a bunch of more UA brats wrapping their Quirks and appendages around his limbs. One of them was that rave-headed boy with the shadow monster, the other was the multi-armed kid, the frog girl, and some purple-haired kid with a… scarf?
"Children… DO YOU REALLY THINK THIS WILL HOLD ME?!"
The purple-haired teen smiled. "Giant fishman says what."
"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME –?!"
Suddenly, everything became very foggy for Gang Orca.
"Holy hell, I can't believe that worked," Shinso breathed out.
"Yeah, no kidding," Shoji agreed.
Ochako had to admit, for an improvised plan, it was hella effective. Her original strategy was to simply rush in there and hope that she provided a big enough distraction that Gang Orca would be unable to attack any of the Heroes helping the faux injured. Thankfully, several others had the same idea, and while Todoroki and Yoarashi were slowly cooking the Pro Hero, the ninth wielder of One For All was able to formulate an actual plan with Shinso and the others.
"Shinso, how long can you hold him for?" Tokoyami asked.
"Don't worry. I'm pretty sure that time is on your side…"
RIIINGGG!
"And that is time! The last of the civilians have been rescued, and with minimal further damage done by the terrorists! The second half of the Provisional Licensing Exam is over! Now all that is left is for our staff to grade your overall scores, and then I'll be able to go to sleep…"
"See?" Shinso smiled, as he released his control of Gang Orca.
The killer whale of a Hero snapped back to reality, and looked around. "It's… over, isn't it? Well, I have to admit, that was a clever ploy from you children. But to call me a fish…"
"Yeah, I know, I'm sorry," Shinso apologized. "I didn't mean to be offensive."
"Offensive? What? No! I was more angry over the fact that you would not be able to differentiate between a fish and a mammal!" Gang Orca exclaimed. "You need to retake basic biology!"
Ochako couldn't help but laugh at that.
Getting back into her UA uniform in less than five minutes, Ochako and the others quickly came back to the stadium grounds, where the massive TV was loading the final results.
"Alright, we're almost done," Mera said. "So, for those who weren't able to pick up on it for some reason, the Help Us Company actors were the ones who were grading the second half of your examination. Every mistake you made would be taken out of your initial score, and once you fell below a certain threshold, you would fail. Now, for the moment you've all been waiting for…"
The brown-haired girl tuned out everything else Mera said, as her eyes scanned the board. Desperately going through the names, the One For All user searched for Ochako Uraraka –
Ochako Uraraka.
She did it.
"I did it…" It took about five full seconds for her brain to comprehend the implications, and when it did, she floored out of joy. "I DID IT! I ACTUALLY DID IT! YAHOO! YES! FUCK YES!"
"Well, I'm glad to see you're in such a celebratory mood," Shinso laughed.
Melissa watched those who passed celebrating in mild amusement. Good for them, she figured. They had the chance to become true Heroes, an opportunity that slipped through her hands.
Ah, well. No time to reminisce over regrets. She had a job to do.
Toga should be rounding up her "classmates," bringing them to where Izuku was. With the amount of stealth-based Quirks the green-haired boy must have had inside that body of his, getting inside the stadium without getting caught was child's play for him.
Speaking of which, Melissa figured it was also time for her to get going…
It had been roughly an hour since the end of the second half. During that time, the students were lined up, with those who passed getting their photos taken, presumably to add those profile pictures alongside whatever basic information would appear on their license.
"To those of you who have passed, congratulations. Once you receive your Provisional Licenses, you will be able to act with the same authority as a Pro Hero. However, I have to remind you that you now carry the responsibility of our superhuman society. All Might used to be a deterrent for criminals, but that responsibility to become the pillars of society falls on you, now more than ever before. I urge you fledglings to be more diligent from now on. Good luck."
The celebratory mood died down a bit at that reminder. All Might wasn't able to fight anymore, and the Villains, ranging from the League and the PLF and anyone in between, would only become more and more active. Ochako grimaced as she recalled what she had to do now…
"Hey."
The brown-haired girl turned to see Katsuki.
"You ain't alone. None of us are."
"...Thank you," she said, with a weak smile.
"...this concludes today's Provisional License Exam," Mera said. "Finally! It's over! I can take a nap now! Wait, what do you mean the mic is still on? I don't care, I'm off the clock!"
Ochako couldn't help but chuckle at Mera's antics, as she looked around to see that a few of the examination proctors were now handing out the Provisional Licenses to the student body. When they reached her, the brown-haired girl took a good look at the piece of plastic.
Name: Ochako Uraraka
Hero Name: Uravity
Quirk: Gravity Manipulation
One by one, she confirmed that everything on that small piece of plastic was accurate (alongside with the false name she had given One For All), and once she was certain of everything, Ochako could feel the tears threatening to leak out of her eyes.
Sniffling, she pulled out her phone. "I gotta show this to my parents…"
Shinso cheekily added, "Don't forget All Might."
"I won't, shut up."
"Excuse me, UA High?" an unfamiliar voice asked. Ochako looked behind her to see that it was one of the examination proctors. "Do you know where the Shiketsu students went?"
"Shiketsu?" Katsuki asked. "They're right there, aren't they?"
"Some of them, yes," the proctor said. "I'm specifically looking for Camie Utsushimi, Inasa Yoarashi, and Nagamasa Mora. All three of them passed, but we can't find them anywhere within the stadium grounds, much less give them their licenses. Could you help us?"
Ochako mulled it over for a few seconds, before she nodded. "Sure, we've got time before the bus gets here. We'll bring them here if we find them. You guys wanna help me search?"
Katsuki shrugged. "Sure, why not?"
"Yeah, I've got nothing better to do." Shinso nodded along.
"Thanks, I appreciate it."
Walking through the corridors of the stadium, Ochako looked around for the three missing students. She and the others knew that the bus for UA would take them in about half an hour, so the three of them agreed to meet back up in fifteen minutes if they didn't find anything.
Their first strategy was to ask the other Shiketsu students if they saw anything. One said something about Camie telling the other two to follow her, and another one said something about Shishikura also missing, but other than that, nothing of substance.
Where could they have all gone? Ochako wondered, as she kept walking. What could possibly be more important than getting their licenses? Maybe I should ask… wait a minute…
Her brown eyes narrowed as she noticed someone walking at the intersection of the corridor, towards the right. Blonde hair, blue eyes behind glasses, wearing a black uniform and hat…
Melissa! She'll know where her classmates went!
Ochako picked up the pace as she tried to catch up to Melissa before she disappeared. Turning the corner, Ochako waved at her. "Hey, Melissa! Did you see where your… classmates…"
The ninth user of One For All remained motionless at the scene before her. Utsushimi was there, along with Yoarashi, Shishikura, and Mora, but… they were on the floor. Utsushimi was the only one standing, as she stared at Ochako, as did Melissa and… Izuku Midoriya.
Why? Why was All For One here? What was he doing to those students? Those questions plagued Ochako's mind, as she stared at his green eyes, waiting for him to do something.
"Well…" Izuku Midoriya coughed. "This is awkward…"
Shouta Aizawa could already feel a headache coming on.
He had managed to round up the majority of his hellions, but the three of them he couldn't pinpoint were Shinso, Bakugou, and Uraraka… because of course she was missing.
He quickly figured that they might be in the bathroom, so he went in that direction, hoping that they were in the closest stalls to where the rest of their classmates were hanging out, and was beginning to worry when he saw that the boy's stalls were empty. He honestly didn't want to go searching every single bathroom in the stadium, but luckily, he did find Bakugou.
And interestingly enough, it looked like he was searching for someone, too.
"Alright, let me try to understand this," he said, his voice dangerously calm. "The proctors were unable to find some of the Shiketsu students to give them their Provisional Licenses, so Uraraka offered to help find them, and had you and Shinso help her look around the building."
"Yeah, that pretty much sums it up," Bakugou said.
"Despite the fact that the Dagoba National Arena is a massive stadium that can fill thousands of seats, and that the bus to take us all back to UA would be arriving here in less than fifteen minutes, essentially making this search like finding a needle in a haystack?" Shouta clarified.
"Are we in trouble, sensei?" Bakugou asked.
"That depends on how fast Shinso and Uraraka can come back here."
"Shouta, lay off them, will ya?" Emi said, smacking his arm. "They were doing a good deed, a public service, you know, the essence of being a Hero? And besides, they all agreed to meet back up after a certain time, so there's no way they're gonna miss the bus back!"
Shouta wanted to say that this wasn't logical, but he really couldn't. For as much as a bad idea as Uraraka had proposed, she did indeed place contingencies to make sure that they would avoid trouble. He wasn't sure how yet, but the Underground Hero suspected that the three of them getting their Provisional Licenses somehow played a part in this little stunt.
"...Fine," he groaned. "As long as Uraraka and Shinso make it back in the time the three of you allotted to yourselves, we can simply write this off as a good deed you did in your spare time."
Thankfully for Bakugou, Shinso arrived about half a minute later, saying that he wasn't able to find anyone. Slightly concerning on Aizawa's part, but one, he wasn't the Shiketsu teacher, so it wasn't really his problem, and two, teenagers leaving some important event to do stupid things was a classic, so Shouta was fairly certain this wasn't any kind of emergency.
"Think Uraraka is gonna give up?" Shinso asked.
"She has to, she's the one who agreed to meet back up in fifteen," Bakugou said.
As much as Shouta wanted to agree with Bakugou's reasoning, a part of him knew that Uraraka would stay as long as she needed to find those Shiketsu kids. It was in her nature to help others, even to her own detriment. He supposed that was why All Might chose her –
BOOOOOOM!
Hundreds of students and adults looked towards the origin of that sudden explosion, as they saw someone flying through the air. Shouta instantly recognized that set of chestnut-colored hair anywhere. Of course it was Uraraka. But that person she was holding… wait…
Is that fucking All For One?!
Ochako figured that a concrete wall to the face at high speeds wouldn't be enough to hurt All For One, much less incapacitate him, but she honestly hoped it would have been.
This bastard was back again, and hurting more people. She wasn't sure why Melissa was with him or even that Utsushimi girl, but Ochako figured that Midoriya must have blackmailed them to do his bidding, and bumped off the other Shiketsu students for whatever he was plotting. Ochako would figure out what soon enough, as soon as she beat the answers out of him!
"Heavy Gravity –"
"CRYSTALIZE AND BUBBLE SHIELD!"
The brown-haired girl felt herself get knocked off Midoriya's body by a massive spike of crystals coming out of his chest, before a dome of green energy wrapped around his body. Those crystals… they reminded Ochako of the sugar crystals Sato sprouted out of his body recently…
Was he responsible for those? And if so… how much…? How much had this man orchestrated?! Was there anything that she was involved with that Midoriya hadn't touched?!
As the two of them crashed down on the roof of the stadium, to the shock of hundreds, Ochako quickly got back up. Turning her Quirk up to her highest available percentage, she ran towards standing Midoriya, hoping to knock him down again, only to see him disappear. What?
This wasn't Hagakure's Quirk. She was only able to make her body invisible, any clothes that could do that along with her had to be DNA-encoded. Was this some kind of illusion? Before she could wonder any further, she could feel Danger Sense blaring at her. From behind –!
Jumping back, she could see that the tiles she was standing on less than a second ago were now destroyed, with rainbow-colored smoke swishing around as if they were clouds of dust. So, they're illusions! He's using that smoke to hide himself, to attack me when I have my guard down!
Ochako growled, charging straight towards where the attack happened. Danger Sense warned her off where All For One was striking from, as she was able to dodge each of the attacks with ease. Then, she could see the smoke dissipate, revealing the suit-wearing Villain.
"Wait, wait, wait!" he yelled, waving his arms. "Let's talk about this!"
"NO! ENOUGH OF YOUR TRICKS!" she roared. "METEOR –"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The ninth wielder of One For All staggered and fell to the floor of the roof, as pain shot from her back in several different places. What happened…? Why didn't Danger Sense warn me…?
"Wow, that was awesome! You really are cool, Uravity!" Ochako's eyes moved up, to see Utsushimi looking down at her… as she started to melt. Her skin turned into a gray sludge, revealing… Carmilla, her nakedness only covered by whatever sludge was concealing her skin.
"What…" Ochako rasped out. "What… did… you… do…?"
"Hm? Well, if you're referring to the real Camie, not to worry, she's still alive, they all are… But as for how I was able to beat you, you can thank Shield for that!" Carmilla smiled, as she showed off some sort of gauntlet, before taking it off and tossing it to… Melissa.
No, no, no, Ochako internally panicked. This makes no sense –
"I see you've incorporated I-Island's compression tech into parts of your costume," Midoriya said. "Or, if I'm not mistaken, all the pieces of it are now within those small bracelets…"
"The latter, actually," Melissa answered, the gauntlet collapsing into a wrist bracelet. "All of that bulky armor has now been divided up between the bracelets all over my body. I suppose that makes it the last innovative thing I'll ever make from the Shiketsu Support Department."
"Don't worry," Midoriya said, kissing Melissa's cheek. "You'll love your new lab!"
"Aww," the Quirkless girl cooed. "You always get me the best things!"
"Naturally," Midoriya said, before he noticed a familiar-looking portal open up behind him. "I'm sorry that it had to happen like this, Uravity. I hope the next time we meet will be –"
"HOWITZER IMPACT!"
BOOOM!
Smoke and fire erupted from the side of the roof, as a familiar blond yelled, "HOLD IT RIGHT THERE, DEKU! YOU AND YOUR LACKEYS AIN'T GETTING AWAY THIS TIME!"
Midoriya simply smiled. "Is that so, Kacchan?"
"Yeah, it is –"
"Remain motionless for thirty seconds."
Katsuki did as he was told, staying as frozen as a statue, causing Ochako's eyes to widen in horror. Brainwashing. That was Shinso's Quirk. How did Midoriya have it?
As the two blonde girls entered Kurogiri's portal, the green-haired Villain looked back at Ochako and the still-frozen Katsuki. "We'll meet again, be sure of that. Now… WHIRLWIND!"
A strong gust of air shot out from Midoriya's arm, sending the injured Ochako into the body of Katsuki, snapping him out of the Brainwashing. The brown-haired girl recognized this Quirk as Yoarashi's, while Kurogiri's portal shrank down into nothingness. They got away. Again.
A police investigation concluded that none of the Shiketsu students had permanently lost their Quirks. However, thanks to Ochako's testimony, it was suspected that Midoriya had copied them, as the illusions and winds were the products of Utsushimi and Yoarashi's Quirks.
Additionally, the real Camie Utsushimi was found alive, but tied up in her apartment. Her testimony stated that she was bound and rendered unconscious by the League of Villains. From there, Tsukauchi was able to speculate that Himiko Toga drank her blood, allowing Carmilla to impersonate Utsushimi and lure the rest of their targets to Midoriya, with Shield's help.
Melissa Shield being a Villain was the biggest shock of them all. After Ochako had described the gauntlets that were used against her, Tsukauchi was able to finally figure out the identity of the support item provider for the League of Villains, Hephastues, was none other than Melissa.
Back in her dorm, Ochako layed on her bed. Recovery Girl was able to fix her up, but her healing wouldn't be able to do anything for her psyche. Lifting up her Provisional License, the brown-haired girl felt like she had eaten dirt. She was supposed to be a Hero now, huh?
Ochako certainly didn't feel like one at this moment.
Author's Note: While it is true that I dropped several hints that Melissa was on the League's side, I never did properly convey that she was getting it on with Midoriya. Oh, well. Now you all know. Anyways, we should move on to the comments now…
James Birdsong: Good comment.
EmilMobile: I mean, yeah, I kinda agree with you there. Aizawa would definitely be the kind of guy that would think along the lines of "sacrifice the few to save the many," but I was trying to bring attention more to the fact that he had significant enough PTSD from Midoriya that he was about to kill a student that just looked like him. But regardless, this pretty much ends the Licensing Exam Arc, so I hope you liked it. Until next time!
HisHightnessGreyCat: Shindo always looks suspicious.
DevilJoker: …Jesus Christ, man, what the heck did Seiji do to you?
