"the last two battles will be Yaoyorozu and Midoriya vs Me" Aizawa sensei said as a laugh boomed through the sky.
"And Todoroki with Bakugou against…"
"I…will do it!"
"Momo" Izuku called out as Todoroki and Katsuki went off to strategize(argue) on their own "Let's figure this out"
Izuku walked alongside Momo through the nearby park area.
"So what's the plan?" he asked after a few seconds of waiting.
"Oh." Momo blinked "Are you not going to be the one coming up with it?"
Izuku stared at her like she was dumb.
"I'm the beat people up person, and you're the smart person. Of course you're coming up with the plan to take out sensei."
She didn't respond, instead opting to look down.
The faint smile on her face was definitely nice to see though.
"I wouldn't say you're not smart though" she said as the two sat down at one of the benches.
"yeah sure, I can improvise" Izuku conceded "long term stuff is definitely your thing though."
She nodded.
"…what do you think of itching powder?"
"alright, let's go" Izuku said out loud as the two started running through the city, Izuku's right arm glowing, and Momo's arms sprouting out…weird baby-faced dolls.
"Momo…what are those things?" Izuku questioned, stopping in his tracks
"Russian matryoshka dolls" she said, putting a few of them into her belt.
"…right."
"they're a backup plan" she said.
Izuku, remembering the rocket boots from the sports festival, just nodded.
"Sounds good."
[ABOVE!]
"Go for the legs!" Izuku yelled, not wasting any time to jump just as Aizawa sensei landed (hard) on the ground he had just been on.
Momo wasted no time, swinging with her iron staff at his shins.
Eraserhead, not expecting an immediate attack from the usually reserved girl, was forced to spring back and send out his capture scarf to grab the staff and yank it out of her grip.
The staff landed on the ground nearby, creating a clanging sound that echoed through the alley.
"You need better grip" he reprimanded, focusing his quirk on Beacon while also staying alert of Creati's position.
"Or do I ?"
Eraserhead paused at that.
The staff had stopped bouncing on the ground, but the sound hadn't stopped.
He grabbed it with the scarf and tried to throw it further away.
Tried.
The moment the scarf made contact with it, it couldn't leave the ground.
He tugged hard, but it wouldn't budge.
"what is this?" he muttered, eyes still not leaving Izuku.
And then his vision was suddenly blocked completely by some kind of blanket.
When he got the cloth off of his face, both his opponents had disappeared.
"how'd you delay the glue on the staff?" Izuku whisper-questioned as the two crouched in a back alley.
"it's a trick I learned at Ryukyu's agency. Hado-senpai said that since my quirk gives me too many options, I need to narrow my moves down to styles. Currently the styles I have styles are brute force, grappler, sneak and movement."
"I'm assuming the glue staff was grappler? And the cloth bomb from your dolls was sneak?"
"yes" she confirmed "the dolls on the left of my belt are cloths and smoke bombs, the ones at my right are flash bangs."
"all I did get was my ass beat by All Might" Izuku muttered "while you levelled up like 10 times."
"…beating the hero killer is not just getting beat up."
"meh. Agree to disagree."
"You talk too much"
Aizawa (with a new scarf) jumped down, reminiscent of their previous encounter.
[0.1 % pressure, PIERCING LIGHT!]
Izuku, now having practised a bit with the sixth user's quirk, launched the attack with less than a second of pressurising, releasing something with the force of a stone thrown really hard.
As opposed to earlier, where even at 40% pressure he could have gone through organs.
Eraserhead, not expecting the completely different type of attack, didn't dodge in time, and was sent through the wall.
"For a little beam…that sure does carry a lot of force." Izuku muttered "good job with the powder spreading throughout the alley"
Yes. That was their plan.
Itching powder.
By spreading itching powder at an extremely thin amount through the whole alley, Aizawa would be unable to cancel either of their quirks for more than 2 or 3 seconds.
Now, Momo ran to the exit while Izuku had a little 1v1 with his teacher.
Why was Izuku, the guy who literally kept pace with a 60% All Might's speed not the one running?
Because he wanted to fight Aizawa sensei.
And Momo didn't even try to disagree, too used to his shenanigans.
'She's too good to me sometimes" he smirked to himself, bringing out his blunt katana and coating it with his light.
Light that went out like a candle almost immediately.
In front of him, he saw Eraserhead cough slightly as he pulled himself out of the wall, eyes already glowing.
"I could just run after her you know?"
"yeah, and I'd catch up to you in less than a second" Izuku snorted.
Sensei stared at Izuku for second, before muttering something like 'problem child' and sending out his scarf.
Izuku rolled right, dodging the initial attack and using his katana to redirect the scarf into the wall and bury it there, forcing both of them into hand-to-hand.
Eraser didn't flinch, pulling back his scarf and moving in for close combat.
Izuku was good at that.
He spun as Aizawa got close, unleashing a kick that his teacher blocks, before using the wall as a spring board to jump from while his leg was still in his teacher's hands.
Aizawa could erase all light emitted by Izuku's body, but he couldn't erase it's passive properties how Sea prism did.
Which meant that while things couldn't pass through Izuku like normal, his inhuman flexibility (like his ability look turn his head the whole 360 degree since he wasn't restricted by neck muscles the way most people were) wasn't gone.
So while the leg stayed in Aizawa's hands, the rest of his body spun and his kick landed straight at Aizawa's neck.
To his credit, Aizawa didn't budge, not even blinking as Izuku did that stunt.
"…since when can you do that?" his teacher questioned.
"since I was six" Izuku grinned. "didn't you see the way I was dodging the Nomu back in the USJ? These aren't new moves."
"…"
"…Ah. Your face was in the ground. Sorry."
The horn blared, and Izuku and Momo's victory was announced.
Aizawa sensei sighed, deactivating his quirk and letting go of Izuku's leg.
"I'm surprised you didn't try to do some flashy battle with me" His teacher said as the two walked together towards the exit.
"Well I sorta did" Izuku shrugged "it wasn't part of her plan, so I didn't try to do something dumb like ignore the plan for the sake of my desires. That's not how heroes do stuff, right?"
The two walked in silence until Izuku broke the silence.
"Her confidence…you paired us together because you knew I wouldn't try to force my way didn't you?"
"I paired you because I knew that you two have good potential as a team" Aizawa sensei said bluntly "whether that means you following her instructions, her following yours or whatever other way, would depend on your actions today. I wouldn't say today was too bad though"
Izuku smirked.
"sensei…people who hide their true feelings aren't very liked you know?"
" I will not hesitate to give you detention."
"UA has detention?"
"I will get it created just for this situation."
"….somehow I don't doubt that."
WITH BAKUGOU AND TODOROKI:
"WHAT HAPPENED TO MAINTAINING DISTANCE?" Katsuki shouted as the half-n-half bastard ran beside him.
"he basically destroyed the fake city with a punch" Todoroki said as he took a quick left turn into one of the alleys "and then practically teleported to us. what do you think?"
"YOU CAN'T JUST ABANDON A PLAN WHEN IT GOES SIDEWAYS!" Katsuki barked.
"That's exactly what backup plans are for. And why are you shouting?"
"This is my natural state" Katsuki growled "all right, new plan. We fight, try to move slowly towards the exit. Closest one tries for the exit; other one pulls out their flashiest move to stall him. Done?"
Todoroki paused, then nodded.
"your good at thinking on the spot."
"I'm good at everything, Icyhot. Now let's move."
"[FLASHFREEZE HEATWAVE]"
Katsuki rushed back, explosions helping him go at a speed that even All Might would be unable to keep up with while being hit with that attack from Icyhot.
"NAIVE!"
One punch.
One punch, and All Might hit a bus with enough force to send crashing into Katsuki, while tanking Todoroki's attack.
"damn it" Todoroki muttered as he moved on his ice, repositioning to stand beside Katsuki's sprawled form.
"Holy shit" Katsuki let out as he managed to get up at his second try "Who the hell throws a bus at someone like that?"
"A villain does!" All might landed in front of the two "And your time is almost up!"
And then the three heard a click.
And Katsuki grinned.
His hand was a blur, grabbing one of his collapsable staffs from his leg holster and slamming All Might with an explosion to the side.
Startled but not hurt, All Might moved forward, intending to break Katsuki's gauntlet with a knee.
"[FROZEN BLOSSOM]"
Ice spread on the ground in an instant, moving like a mini hurricane before it stopped at the shape of a Sakura flower.
All Might was thrown back again as pillars of ice sprouted from the tip of each petal.
"Same plan" Todoroki said as he pointed at the exit "You'll be faster with those."
Katsuki was torn for a second, looking between All Might already tearing through Todoroki's super move, and the exit.
He cursed, before getting into his stance.
[EXPLOSIVE SPEED, MEGA VERSION]
With that unprecedent level of firepower, it was no surprise that Katsuki landed on the other side of the exit gate within seconds.
"TEAM TODOROKI AND BAKUGOU HAS PASSED"
Katsuki winced as the loud ass horn blared from the speaker inside the Nezu cutout.
Yet, running away didn't feel like victory at all.
