Without losing any time, Izuku started to jot everything down. Neito and (surprisingly) Momo did the same thing. For a moment all three looked at each other like they found their long lost siblings.
"Let's do this!" Setsuna raised her first.
The girl'costime consisted of a purple mask over top half of her face, a bodysuit of same color, as well as black boots and fingerless gloves and orange wrist guards. Her overall appearance reminded of ninjas, which made sense considering how good her quirk would be at stealth.
"You better bring your A game! Or else..." Fujimi sliced his thumb across his neck.
"Do not threaten your classmates like this, Romero!" Tenya complained.
The boy wore a long black coat with red stripes, gray pants and brown loafers. The appearance made him look like an evil scientist rather than a hero. He was holding two transculent purple masks in his hands.
"We WILL win!" Pony matched their enthusiasm.
Her costume was horse themed to match the appearance. She had a halter on her head, special boots to match her hooves and jockey like uniform: orange and white top and bottom, along with belts all over body. The most curious part was a a pair of stirrups, implying that someone could ride her like an actual horse.
"I bet Daigo-san wishes he was paired with Tsutonori-san."
"I hope you didn't do your homework." Shinsou smirked.
His suit consisted of a black shirt and pants, white boots and gloves. On his front and back where large question marks that alluded to his quirk's (false) nature. He must have really comitted to the bit with this outfit.
"Who do you think will win?" Itsuka asked him.
"Uh? I think Tsunoroti-san has this. Her horns will be very hard to stop when she can control two at once and still shoot the others."
"Don't be so sure." Momo intervened. "We haven't Romero-san's quirk in its full effect. He may be able to mess with Horn Cannon somehow."
"He asked me about gases." Ochako remembered. "I think it works like Midnight's Somnambulist, which no one in team A can counter directly."
"We will have to wait and see then."
Reptilian duo was carrying the faux bomb through the building. They decided that top floor would be the best option.
"So, do you have a plan?"
"I do, in fact, have a plan. Like I said before, Walk the Dinosaur can be forced onto other people like a virus. I can spread it via a blue gas from my body or inject it directly into their blood with my teeth and claws. Speed of transformation depends on their immune system, but most people succumb pretty quickly."
"That's neat, but why would you transform our opponents? Wait, I get it! You'll make them weaker and smaller than humans."
"Exactly. Parvicursor is only 40 centimeters in length, so while they would still have their quirks and brains, physically they'd be outmatched by us. Who knows, Shinsou's quirk might not even work if he can't speak coherently. Take this mask." He handed over one of his own. "I don't really need it due to my control over the quirk. I'll become an Utahraptor and tear right through them!"
"Amazing! Why not turn me too?"
"You might not have good control over Lizard Tail Splitter when in a different form. It happens sometimes."
"Means I'll have to learn this later. We should pay close attention to the bomb though. I don't want to lose to a stray horn. Perhaps we should just turtle while I spy with my little eye." Her left eye flew out of its socket.
"But that's lame! I want to kick some ass!" Romero tried to protest.
"You'll get your chance later, bug guy, I promise." Tokage wrapped her arm around his neck. "But we should do as I say for now." She whispered into his ear, other hand on his hip.
"Uh... Fine!" The pushed her away. "But if we lose, I'll blame you for everything." He rolled up his sleeves to begin the infection.
"I think we should split." Hitoshi offered. "You distract and I ambush."
"Can you just ask them your question?" She didn't get him.
"It's not that simple. My Brainwashing works best when they can't focus only on me."
"Why?"
"Just trust me, okay?" He patted the girl on the shoulder. "Go ahead, I'll be slightly behind you."
"Okay..."
Pony flew forward on her horns at moderate pace, ocassionally stopping and turning around to make sure her teammate is within her field of view. When she flew to the top floor, her eyes noticed a strange gas, which caused the girl to immediately retreat. Unfortunately for her, it was already too late. Her skin started reshape into scales, mouth elongated into a beak and her arms were now nothing more than singular claws. She shrinked to comically a small degree, which caused her clothing to outsize her several times over. The only thing that remained from her normal form is a pair of hooves and tiny horns on her head. Strangely, original horns didn't change at all.
"Oh my God! I'm no longer human or pony, I'm a chicken!" She screamed internally as speech was now beyond her capabilities.
Hitoshi was running out of breath (running is hard, ok?) so it took him a while to catch up. He was completely terrified upon seeing his partner in this condition.
"What the hell?" He screamed. "What did he do to you?"
Pony could only point upwards with her horns and make a cross to indicate that going upstairs is ill advised. The gas was steadily approaching them from above.
"Shit. Will my quirk even work when I'm a dino? I'd rather not revel its true mechanism so soon." He didn't notice an eye staring at him from a dark corner.
"HA HA HA!" Setsuna laughed out loud while sitting next to the bomb and caressing Dino-Fujimi's head. "She's so tiny! And he looks like he just saw a ghost in front of him. Huh? They are running away."
"Rawr?"
"Don't worry. I'll keep an eye on them, heh. Hitoshi took her in his hands. How cute! Now he is standing on horns and flying away... through the window!" She stood up. "Looks like they aren't out of the fight yet! Be ready!"
Tokage and Romero stood between the window and the bomb. Their opponents showed up shortly after. Tsunoroti started shooting horns in a straight line through the windows. The gas was falling down as soon as it exited the building, so the flying duo was safe while in the air. Projectiles smaller than usual, but their quantity and speed were enough to damage the villain team. Fujimi turned into a triceratops to shield the green haired girl from the onslaught. Pony could only control two horns at once, both of which were used to lift her team. Meanwhile, the villainess sent her parts to flank the enemy combo.
"Hey, assholes!" Shinsou screamed. "What is full of holes but still holds water?"
"Sponge!"
"Coo!"
"I also meant sponge." Fujimi thought.
"One more decoy and I can end this."
"I have many teeth but I can't bite. What am I?"
"A comb!/Coo!"
Before Shinsou could ask a hard riddle and wrap this up, two fists punched him in the head from behind. The body parts grabbed still flabbergasted boy and transformed girl to separate them. Shinsou was carried to the bomb room with a foot covering his mouth, while Pony managed to fight back against Setsuna but couldn't save her teammate in time.
Romero quickly turned back (his suit alongside him) to put his (now tiny) opponent into the capturing tape. Hitoshi tried to fight back but was overwhelmed.
"Consider yourself lucky." Setsuna joked. "A lot of guys would kill to let me stomp on their face, he he." Her feet hovered above the little raptor.
"Dammit! I should have went for a hard riddle sooner!"
Tsunotori didn't get captured but also couldn't get past villains' defenses and reckon on her own. After 15 minutes All Might announced the victory of defending team. Robots took away the hero team and carried them to Recovery Girl. They didn't forget to take their suits too.
"When will they go back to normal?" Ochako (a half the class) were really concerned.
"I shall pray for their health." Shiozaki summoned the divine light again.
"A few hours, give or take. They'll need to rest to speed up recovery." Fujimi waved dismissively and grinned. "Those two will never forget the taste of my power, he he."
"I would have beaten your ass!" Katsuki barked at him.
"I doubt that!"
Two boys clashed their foreheads with angry expressions.
"Just kiss already." Camie said.
"Shut up!" They both yelled at her.
"Order!" Their teacher demanded. "You can leave personal rivalries for later. Right now we should discuss the results of the first match and determine the MVP. Volunteers?"
"If I may?" Yaoyorozu raised her hand. "Tokage-san was able to keep track of her enemies most of the time and took advantage of their tunnel vision against Romero-san. She was also the one who separated them. Taking all of that into account, I nominate her."
"Thanks, girl!" Her fist detached and flew to Momo for a long distance fist bump.
"I disagree." Izuku countered. "This match was clearly unbalanced in villains' favor but Tsunotori-san made the most out of the situation. With no way to counter the gas directly, she managed to bring Shinsou-kun close to the bomb and keep shooting even after being shrinked. She was the MVP."
"Her body failed but her mind persisted through the darkness." Tokoyami commented.
"Yeah, if anything her partner fumbled this one epicly." Utsushimi pointed at one of the screens. "He definitely used baby brain riddles if they managed to stall him for so long."
"His brain must be a noodle too."
"Perhaps I should share some of my knowledge with him." Momo pondered for a second.
"Why is no one giving ME credit?" Romero asked in frustration. "Without me heroes would have just rushed the bomb with horns!"
"Walk the Dinosaur is like Ryukyu paired up with Midnight. Scary combination and Monster of a quirk." Neito added to his notes.
"It's because all you did was spread the gas and tank some shots." Kendou deadpanned. "Everyone else put more active work."
"Don't you dare insult..." Fujimi tried to grab her put she dodged him effortlessly.
"I said order!" All Might once again drew everyone's attention. "Both Yaoyorozu and Midoriya raised excellent points, but from my perspective young Tsunotori's persistence in face of adversity deserves extra credit. I deem her the MVP."
"I will make sure to notify her once we go to infirmary." Istuka promised.
"Next up: Teams C and D!"
"I shall not disappoint!" Tenya saluted his teacher.
Iida's suit was the most robotic out of everyone in the class. His metallic armor (clearly inspired by hero Ingenium) combined blue with silver and covered him head to toe. Original Ingenium's suit didn't actually offer that much protection and instead helped deal with air resistance. His brother's case was likely the same.
"My mind will see us through." Momo said as her hand produced a matryoska with her face.
The girl wore a sleeveles crimson leotard and high heel boots of the same color. On her waist were two utility belts which had a book holder attached to the back. This design was likely Created to accommodate for her quirk, although it also left her vulnerable due to how much skin was left unprotected. Midoriya couldn't help but think about potential improvements.
"Love your suit, babe!" Camie gave thumbs up, much to Ibara's dismay.
"Thank you. It's been difficult to compromise between complying with regulations and leaving enough skin for large creations."
"It makes you an easy target." Daigo claimed as he span a revolver in his hand.
Brando's suit fitted his claimed enjoyment of westerns. He wore black clothes underneath a brown leather vest, gauntlets and cowboy boots, with a red poncho around his shoulders and black bandana covering lower part of his face. His Stetson hat did not cover his shoulder length blond hair at all, and his own utility belts were seemingly filled to the brim with some kind of equipment. A gun holster was strapped to his right thigh, while left one held a lasso and a large knife. On his chest there was a gilded sheriff badge with "DAIGO" written on it in English.
"Why does this guy carry so much stuff?" Midoriya asked himself. "He clearly doesn't need all of it."
"Please, stop spinning that thing!" Uraraka pleaded. "You might hurt someone."
"Relax. It's got safety on and everything." He put it in the holster.
Shouto did not say anything, he only stared at this opponents with apathy.
His suit was rather plain: white shirt, boots and pants; yellow straps and tactical vest. An ice like material covered half of his body, with a red glow in place of his left eye.
"He looks like a discount Terminator." Fujimi recalled an ancient pre quirk movie.
"Let's see how Four Eyes and Shoulder Hair stack up against Two-Face and Nerd." Katsuki beamed with anticipation. "I'll know exactly how to beat each of them!"
"Teams, on your positions!"
Author's notes: How do you like my spin on Romero's quirk and Shinsou's strategy?
Originally I wanted Bakugou's nickname for Brando be "Fishman", but it probably wasn't surface level enough for his character.
