Chương 65: Chapter 1 - Final Exams: 5
Pulling back on the black leather of her hero costume's right glove, Yoshihara frowned as it tightened around her fingers. It felt… right. But at the same time, it felt wrong. The glove seemed to have shrunk, or perhaps her hands are just a little bit bigger than they were the last time she wore them. A frown wormed its way on her face as she closed the locker that she was keeping her school uniform in.
The day of the practical exam had arrived, and a bout of nervousness had begun to form in her stomach. She had never been nervous about an exam like this in a long time, but considering the type of exam it was, it was reasonable to assume that this, unlike the written exam, wouldn't be as much of a cakewalk as that had been.
She had no idea what this exam would be like, but if she had to harbour a guess, it wasn't going to be an easy one. This was the final exam before school broke out for the summer, and she knew that the teachers had something in mind for them.
And so, with that in mind, instead of using the time that was given to them yesterday to go out and about, and get away from campus, Yoshihara used that time to train her physical body, which had left her dead tired. That was bad enough as is, but there was still the fact that it wasn't the only thing that she had done.
On top of that, she was now tasked to clean the dorms whenever they needed cleaning. Which, in other words, meant every time before bed. As a result, she was more than a little fatigued, having only 5 or so hours of sleep instead of her usual 8 hours.
Her muscles were sore from doing upper body training, though she'd get over it eventually. That soreness was worse because of the cleaning she had to do. Thankfully, she didn't have to clean the other rooms, just the foyer, kitchen, and laundry room. She had to do this for a month in order for her to "learn her lesson" as Aizawa-sensei put it.
Kira wasn't stupid. She knew that Aizawa knew that she had something to do with Bakugo's condition. He couldn't pinpoint what it was, and it was going to stay that way. The bastard deserved worse in her opinion, but he did save her life. Just because he did that though didn't mean it redeemed him. All it did was save him from possibly being blacklisted from U.A. or worse, in a grave at her hands.
Though, the more she thought about it, the more Kira was beginning to think that she was letting her anger get the better of her. Yes, Bakugo was an abusive piece of shit. That was something anyone with half a brain and a functioning moral compass could see. He was also a manipulative little shitstain who liked bullying the weak and getting others to do the same. But, she also reasoned that perhaps there was something more to that behaviour.
As she had learned about her mother, not everyone was necessarily born evil, but rather, they were made evil. For her mother, it was her Bipolar Disorder and the tumour in the back of her brain that caused her to be what she ended up devolving into.
Bakugo Katsuki wasn't evil, at least not entirely. She reasoned that there was a chance that he had been driven to think that he was far better than he really was by those around him. Not that she had any interest in figuring out the rest. But, if Izuku wanted to talk about it, maybe she could garner more information on the matter.
Waving away those thoughts and moving on to what she had done to prepare for the physical exam; rather than harnessing her Stands abilities, she was far more focused on her physical improvement. Compared to everyone else in Class 1 – A, even Kujo, she wasn't all that physically strong. She had been relying on her Stand too much and frankly, it was showing.
She wasn't as fast as someone like Yaoyorozu, she wasn't as strong as someone like Asui, and nor was she reaching the level of flexibility that Ashido had reached. Had it not been for her Killer Queen, she wouldn't even be reaching the top ten in her class in terms of physicality. Kira had begun to stagnate, and that just wouldn't do.
Just because she was practically forced into becoming a hero, didn't mean she was going to be lazy about her progress. Kira still had a responsibility and that responsibility was to be a Hero. And without the ability to match others in her class, or at least be on par with them, she wasn't going to make it far, even as an underground hero like she had been aiming to be.
She ended up speaking to Zeppelli about learning what Izuku was learning, but he suggested something different to her. What Izuku was learning was more tailored for someone who fought with their bodies, not with Stands, and because of that, it wasn't right for her way of fighting. Instead, he suggested that she used something else. He had apparently noticed that her Stand could use something called "The Spin" during one of their training exercises a few days back.
According to him, her Stand and Josefumi's were eerily similar in the way they apparently used some form of "The Spin" to create their "bubbles." For example, according to Zeppelli, Josefumi's Soft & Wet summoned a piece of string and spun it really fast using "The Spin" making it appear and act like a bubble with the Joestar Birthmark in the center.
Yoshihara's Killer Queen on the other hand did something different. It naturally created the energy around its fingertip, and when it did, it became stable enough, yet still spinning, to form a bubble, effectively making Infinite Energy that, upon making contact with someone, resulted in an immediate explosion that would destroy absolute anything it came into contact with unless mitigated by the user.
Apparently, that meant a lot. Most people who learned "The Spin" couldn't control Infinite Energy right as soon as they realized they could use it, and it took years for some to master that kind of control. Even those who were remarkably talented had to train for at least 6 months. So for her to be able to do it as if it was second nature was, quote-on-quote, a miracle.
However, she herself wasn't physically built enough to maintain usage of it with her body and not Killer Queen. While it went against his reasoning for not teaching her what Izuku was learning, she decided to not mention that. She figured that he wanted there to be diversity in those he was teaching, and thus she let it slide.
In order for her to properly maintain her ability to use "The Spin", he handed her a schedule of workouts that would build her muscle mass up enough to withstand using it without the use of her Stand. It wasn't too bad, in fact, it wasn't too dissimilar to what she did on the daily, just more of it than what she was used to.
It was very obvious that her body was used to the new amount she was being told to bench press. Before, she could bench about 200 pounds, which was average amongst the female students of 1 – A and 1 – B. But, now, she was being tasked to bench 250. It didn't sound like a lot, but it was.
The regiment was basically what she normally did but add another, like, 50 pounds or 100 of something that she was already doing. For example, instead of doing 50 squats, she now had to do 100 squats. Instead of doing 50 push-ups, she now had to do 150 single-arm push-ups and switch between her arms every 10 push-ups she did.
Instead of doing 20 minutes of planking, she had to do an hour of it. She also had to do 100 pull-ups, as well as 100 seated toe touches. Worst of all, she now had to do 2 hours of yoga. She HATED yoga with a passion. She wasn't a fan of getting sweaty. Well, actually, that depended on what she was doing. But whatever.
All in all, yoga sucked.
"Tomorrow is a yoga day… fucking hell…." Yoshihara thought as she sat down on the bench behind her and tied her shoes.
For a brief second, she felt someone brush up against her. Looking up, she saw Yaoyorozu. The ravenette glared at her, before looking away. The blonde sighed, tugging tightly on her laces before working on the second shoe.
Word spread about Bakugo's injuries and, thankfully, everyone bought the story about the vampire. However, that raised another issue. The vampire was able to break into the school. It seemed as if the security efforts were wasted, and the lockdown had been pointless. That already rubbed people the wrong way, but what made matters worse was that the vampire was more than able to break through everything U.A. and The Speedwagon Foundation had set up, and all the upgraded defences U.A. put in place were proven meaningless.
And, what do you know, people blamed the Stand Users for "attracting" him here because the Vampire was also a Stand User. With Bakugo gone, it seemed as if Yaoyorozu had decided to be the one to constantly remind her and her "fellow kind", as she put it, that it was their fault the Vampire came here.
There was definitely some kind of insinuation there in what it was she said, and quite frankly, had it not been for the fact that Kira was completely exhausted the day those words exited that woman's mouth, Yaoyorozu would've been reminded as to where she stood in their little dynamic.
Kira was able to keep her anger down that day. But, as it was starting to become apparent, Bakugo's tactics seemed to have someone else who now perpetuated them. It was honestly kind of sad how malleable Yaoyorozu was. It was clear that she had some kind of social ineptness due to her, most likely secluded, upbringing.
Whether Bakugo knew it or not, his behaviour had rubbed off on Yaoyorozu. And now she was making it her mission to screw her and her friends over. Her petty squabbles turned into a gossip mill. Last night, when Izuku and her just wanted to be alone in his dorm room, someone had reported to Aizawa that they had been doing… stuff.
That wasn't true. They weren't, and they weren't going to be doing that kind of stuff. At least, that night. Both of them were tired from the physical work they had been doing. But, because of Yaoyorozu's big mouth, a new rule was put in place that students weren't allowed to go into another person's dorm room without a third person being with them. That had pissed Kira off. Aizawa didn't seemingly care about it, though, and rules were rules, meaning they needed to be upheld.
Considering Yaoyorozu always kept an ear open, it was clear that she had been the one to report it. Truth be told, Kira was fine with her talking shit. She didn't quite care for it, and if Yaoyorozu went too far, then Kira would gladly remind her who was superior, but there was a line in the sand that had been drawn, and it was drawn forever ago. And now, Yaoyorozu has crossed that line. She was actively interfering in her relationship because of said pettiness. There was a line that was crossed, and she was going to pay for it.
If there was one thing that you didn't do, it was to interfere with another woman's relationship. That was a silent rule amongst all people. No matter what your grievance with that person was, you just didn't do that. Not even Kira would do that, and she was known to be brutal to people she didn't like. At least Bakugo of all people understood that. Bakugo knew not to mess with another person's relationship, partly because he didn't care.
But Yaoyorozu? The same person who was willing to stoop low enough to spout off about another person's scars and trauma related to those scars. The same person who was more than willing to point out someone's insecurities if it meant that she got the one-up on them. She was petty, she was cruel, and it was clear that if you were her enemy, it didn't matter who you were, you'd be on the receiving end of some of the most twisted things Kira had ever heard.
It was true, teenagers were the absolute worst. Had it not been for Izuku and had it not been for the fact that she, quite literally, was unable to give a fuck, had Kira been able to feel emotions other than pure anger and feel nothing but apathy, she would have made a big stink of it.
But no. That wasn't how Kira operated. Kira was more… quiet. She was going to make Yaoyorozu pay for stepping a bit too close to the sun.
If anyone got in the way of her quiet life, no matter how small, they would pay dearly for it. Villain, hero, classmate, or co-worker, Kira Yoshihara didn't care. No one got in the way of her life. Period. That was just something you didn't do.
"Oi, Kira-san," Maria's voice cut through her thoughts as Kira looked up at the Italian, who was smirking down at her. "You seem to be in a bit of a mood. What seems to be the problem, amico?"
"Amico?" Yoshihara asked, most definitely butchering the pronunciation of the word as Maria snorted with amusement.
"It's A-me-co, not A-mec-o, Kira-san. But, good attempt!" Maria said, snickering silently before sitting down next to the blonde. "It also means "friend" in Italian, if you were curious."
"I see…" Yoshihara muttered, looking back down at her right shoe. She had been fiddling with the laces for a little while now. She had already tied them, now she had just been tugging at them. "And it's nothing. I'm… just thinking."
"Uh-huh, right," Maria deadpanned, "Dio al di sopra, Kira I can tell you're frustrated. But, if you don't want to talk about it, that's a-okay," Maria continued, patting the blonde on the shoulder as she stood up. "Though I should note, we're about to be late for the exams, so let's get moving, yeah?"
Without so much as a word, Yoshihara stood up and began to walk out of the changing rooms, Maria following soon after. It didn't take them long to get to where they were supposed to go, with Kira knowing the school's layout like the back of her palm.
She had an idea of what the exam was going to be like, as she had overheard a conversation that Izuku had with someone from Class 1 – B, Itsuka Kendo. It was supposed to be a battle between Robots and students, the same ones from The Sports Festival, as well as the same ones from the standard Entrance Exam that Izuku and the other students outside of the recommended ones had to do.
With this in mind, Yoshihara lined up with everyone else from her class. She was standing at the end of the line with Maria who was standing to her right, and to her left, was Yaoyorozu Momo. The ravenette shot her a glare, to which Yoshihara responded in kind. Yoshihara could see the shiver run through her body as her right arm shook.
Good. She should be scared of her.
"Attention, everyone. The Practical Exam is about to begin, eyes forward," Aizawa's voice cut through the blonde's thoughts as Yoshihara looked up at the row of teachers. It was… intimidating to say the very least. Thirteen, Eraserhead, Snipe, Cementoss, Ectoplasm, Present Mic, and Powerloader. All Might wasn't there, and that was because he was busy with whatever he was busy with.
"This should go without saying," Aizawa began as he adjusted his scarf, "but It is possible to fail this exam. If you want to attend the training camp, then don't mess this up," the gruff man continued, "Knowing you guys, you probably asked around and you might think you have a vague idea of how this'll go…"
"It's a Robot Rumble, like the entrance exam!" Kaminari exclaimed as Mina cheered about fireworks and other crap that Kira didn't quite care about. Their impromptu celebration was cut off when, of all things, the Principal popped out from Aizawa's scarf.
"Not quite!! Various circumstances have demanded a revision to the exam format!" Nedzu replied with equal jubilation, leaping from the scarf with a perfect landing and placing his paws… hands? Whatever he called them behind his back.
"A revision?" Todoroki questioned as Nedzu hummed in the affirmative.
"I don't think I have to explain why the revision was needed. A permanent scar on your class, in particular, should be more than enough to go through a revision. It is both a sign of failure of the system and a failure of U.A. that Tenya Ida met a tragic fate that day. One that, as I'm sure you are all more than aware, has sent ripples through the halls of this school as well as the media.
"That being said, from now on, we'll focus on battles against flesh-and-blood opponents. It is critical that our teaching simulates practical experience as closely as possible. As such, you students will be pairing up and fighting the teachers you see here! And… a special guest to replace All Might."
"Against a teacher?!" Uraraka muttered as Izuku looked over at her, placing a hand on her shoulder as a form of reassurance.
"You got this, Uraraka-san," Izuku said as Uraraka smiled.
"Thanks, Deku-kun!"
"A-hem, if you two could please stop talking," Nedzu called out to the two, as Izuku clammed up along with Uraraka. Yoshihara snickered, covering her mouth as Nedzu nodded. "Thank you. Now, your pairing and assigned teacher have already been decided. Your battle moves, your grades, your friendships with one another, all these factors and more were considered. So, without further ado…."
"First, Todoroki is with Yaoyorzu. And, your opponent will be me," Aizawa-sensei stated as the two looked at one another. A flare of determination was set in their eyes as Aizawa-sensei grinned, before turning his attention toward Midoriya.
"Next. Midoriya, the original plan was to have you paired with Bakugo. However, due to recent events, that has been changed. So, instead, you'll be paired with Kujo," Aizawa stated as the two partners looked at one another, both flashing thumbs up at one another. "And now, your opponent is…."
"Me!"
Loud, feminine, booming voice echoed out from behind the teachers. Only now did Yoshihara notice that Star and Stripe had been positioned in such a way that no one could have seen her until she made her appearance. And, much like All Might, she was intimidating. Standing at a staggering 6 feet 4 inches, the blonde woman loomed over Midoriya and Kujo, who both stared up at her with determined glares. Everyone who had no idea who she was looked up at her with wide eyes and silently terrified expressions.
"The name's Star and Stripe. Josefumi over here knows who I am because he's known me since he was a kid. But for ya'll who don't know me, I'm America's Number One Pro Hero, and, if it wasn't obvious, I take after All Might because All Might inspired me to be a Hero," Star and Stripe explained before slamming her right fist into an open palm, strong enough to make a gust of wind blow out from the simple gesture. "Unlike All Might, though, I ain't gonna show mercy to either of ya. I know yer strong, the two of you, so get ready for an ass-whoopin', American style, ya hear?"
"Star, if you would mind getting in line," Nedzu said as Star and Stripe cracked a grin, before stepping back in line with all of the other pros, crossing her arms over her chest. "Thank you! Now, I shall take it from here." Nedzu said, putting a paw to his mouth as he cleared his throat.
"Myself will be up against Ashido and Kaminari. Thirteen will be up against Aoyama and Uraraka. Present Mic will be against Zeppeli. Ectoplasm will be up against Asui and Tokoyami. Midnight will be up against Kira. Snipe will be up against Shoji. Cementoss will be up against Sato and Kirishima. And Power Loader will be up against Ojiro and Bucciaratti. Are there any questions?"
"Yes, I have one," Shoji spoke up, raising a hand Nedzu gestured for him to continue. "Why are some people paired up, while others aren't?"
"Good question, though I'm sure the answer is obvious," Nedzu began as he overlooked the class. "As you can no doubt tell, your class lacks classmates, of which seats will be filled once Summer Break is over, barring something drastic that ends up happening. As such, due to the odd number of people in your class, some will have to take on the teachers one-on-one."
"Thank you," Shoji said, bowing his head as Nedzu smiled.
"To explain the rules of the Exam," Nedzu said, bringing out a pair of cuffs seemingly out of nowhere. "The time limit is 30 minutes. Your objective is to either get these handcuffs on your opponent or have one of you flee from the stage! However, keep in mind that your opponents are not your classmates. They are official Pro Heroes who have years of experience close enough to dwarf you in age. So treat them as if you would treat a villain. Non-lethally, of course, you can't go killing your teachers.
"Now, with that said and done, your exams begin now! Take the bus to your assigned zone, and if you don't know where that is, simply follow the teacher you have been assigned as your examiner. Once there, You will be given a short amount of time to plan—approximately 2 minutes—before the exams begin in earnest. I wish you all the best of luck, and remember to go beyond…"
"PLUS ULTRA!"
And with that, the teachers and guest pairings were made to go to their buses. Nerves filled the air as everyone went to go to their assigned locations. No one wanted to fail, especially considering how close it was to Summer Break and their training camp, both of which everyone was excited about.
For Yoshihara though, it was merely another step closer to being able to live her best life. That was what all of this was about. Or, well, at least trying to live her best life. But that was just semantics. When Yoshihara arrived on her bus with Nemuri, the two sat separate from one another—Nemuri in the front, and Yoshihara in the middle row.
The ride to their specific location, that being an open field surrounded by a white barrier of sorts. Yoshihara didn't quite care what the location of the fight was going to be, all that mattered was that she won, and she already had a win condition. That win condition being Sheer Heart Attack. With it, she wouldn't even need to deal with Nemuri's sleeping gas. She could just cover her nose and mouth with fabric and be done with it.
"Yoshi-chan?" Nemuri's voice cut through her thoughts as the blonde looked over to the ravenette, who was looking over her shoulder at her. "I just want to let you know that during this exam, I will not be holding back. I expect you to do the same."
Yoshihara nodded silently, lowering her head as she went back to thinking over her strategy for beating Midnight.
For Nemuri's part, she was more than a little worried about Yoshihara. Class 1 – A hadn't exactly been the best environment for her as of late, no thanks in part to some of Yoshihara's own actions—justified actions, might she add… well, for the most part, if one were to discount her involvement in Bakugo's current condition.
All of the hatred, all of the vitriol… it was unwarranted. She didn't know who was causing it, but when she found out, she would be giving them a serious talking to. No one, no matter who they were, with the exception of rotten, nasty, evil and vile people, deserved this kind of harassment. She had an idea of who it could be, without further proof, she couldn't do much for it.
The pro hero sighed, looking through the massive windshield that the bus had to see just how long it would take to get to their location. It wouldn't be long until the exam began in earnest. Nemuri was excited to see what would come of it. She was hoping Yoshihara would defeat her, and knowing her track record… yeah, most likely. Yoshihara would most likely defeat her.
On another bus heading toward a faux city, the one with Star and Stripe, Kujo and Izuku were tense. They were sitting side by side as Star and Stripe was sitting just in front of them, staring the two down with an almost blank expression. The buses this time were being driven by robots who were programmed to know every part of the campus, so as to not have a security leak like what happened with the USJ.
The number one pro hero of America was huge and in the muscular sense too. She truly looked like All Might if he had been a woman. Large blue eyes, and blonde hair that reached down to her back. Her costume was red, white and blue instead of red, blue, and yellow, and she had a cape that looked just like an American Flag. Which made sense considering who she was.
Still, it was jarring to see Star and Stripe actually be here. Izuku had heard rumours that her Quirk was super strength, but outside of that, no one really knew what it was. It was just like All Might, except Izuku knew his Quirk was One For All. Or, well, it was One For All until Izuku was given it. Now All Might was working with the embers of the Quirk.
"So," Star and Stripe began. "You're Yagi's successor, huh kiddo?" The blonde-haired woman asked as Izuku calmed up. To this, Star and Stripe laughed. "Don't sweat it, kid. Johnny Boy filled me in a few weeks back, so I knew beforehand. Although, I've known about One For All since I met All Might a few years after our first meeting. In fact, when he finished his fight with All For One, he was looking for a successor to the Quirk due to his deteriorating body."
"Y-Yeah… he told me that," Izuku muttered as Star and Stripe nodded.
"Yeah. When he heard about me and heard about my Quirk, he actually offered me One For All. Back then, I was a fledgling hero, somewhere around rank 45 or some crap like that. Honestly, it's been nearly a decade since then. I declined, obviously. Mostly 'cause my Quirk is leagues better than "I can punch hard" and whatnot," Star and Stripe stated as Izuku's eyes widened.
"Really? But why not? If All Might inspired you to become a hero, wouldn't that have been a dream come true? To not only have All Might trust you enough but also see you as worthy enough to carry such a legacy?" Izuku asked as Star and Stripe scoffed.
"Yeah, right. Look, Kiddo, I wanted to be my own Hero, not to be tied down to some legacy created by a dead guy over 90-something years ago. Not that I didn't want to be a part of it, because that was one of the first things that came to mind, but because I quite simply didn't want to be the ninth holder. Besides, there is always someone more deserving than someone like me, who was already blessed with an amazing Quirk. Why have another on top of that?" Star and Stripe explained.
Izuku, for his part, was a little more than impressed with that. And quite frankly, it made him wonder just how many people he had offered the Quirk to, who had declined. Not that he cared, he was more curious than anything. How many other people knew about One For All aside from himself, Gran Torino, U.A.'s staff, and Star and Stripe?
"Alright, kiddos, we're here!" Star and Stripe said, standing up from her seat and ushering them out first. When they got out, Star looked over to the pair and smirked. Positioning herself in front of them, Star towered over them, and with the faux city in the background, it truly was an intimidating sight to behold. It was as if Izuku was staring up at All Might for the very first time. It made his heart race, to see someone this strong in front of him.
"Now, as you two rookies know, the rules are simple. Handcuff me or escape the simulation. And considering you're up against Pro Heroes, I bet the first thing that came to your mind was running, yeah?" Star and Stripe asked as the two kids looked at one another. Kujo had a small bead of sweat going down the side of his face, whereas Izuku composed enough so as to not show his fear, instead using this time to practice his breathing.
Star simply smirked, scoffing. "I can see it in yer eyes, no need to hide it. Anyway, luckily for you, to make sure you didn't get too hurt during these exams, Nedzu went ahead and commissioned the support course of U.A. to make us use these things," Star continued as she drew out what appeared to be bracelets. "These, rookies, are Ultra Compressed Weights. Upwards to 3 tonnes are stored in these things—at least, for me they are—so while I will be slower, my punches are gonna hurt a hell of a lot more. I shouldn't have to explain why, 'cause it's basic physics."
"Your… weakening yourself for this?" Kujo asked as Star and Stripe smiled, and when she did, the fear of God was placed in them.
"Oh-ho! Yeah, no. These are just meant to slow me down. That, and I have a trick up my sleeve that I'm willing to bet you guys aren't prepared for. Or, well, at least one of you, anyway. That being said, I'll give you guys a moment to plan. See you two rookies in a minute or so."
With a slight brace of impact, Star and Stripe leapt backwards and easily cleared the entire faux city in one jump. Izuku had to admit, if he hadn't gone to the bathroom before heading to the final exams, he would have pissed himself right then and there. He was certain All Might could've done the same thing, but if that didn't change the fact that Star and Stripe was just as strong, if not stronger than him, then he didn't know what did.
After the simple display of power, Josefumi sighed, wiping his forehead from whatever sweat had been gathering there as he cleared his throat.
"So… I think it goes without saying, but I'm going to be stealing her Quirk away from her. That way she can't use it, and we have a better chance at beating Star, or at the very least, getting away from her," Josefumi said as Izuku crossed his arms, his expression one of thought.
The plan could work, barring she didn't know about Josefumi's Stand ability. Considering that she knows him, though, that probably wouldn't work. Sure, they had the advantage of being able to catch Star and Stripe off guard with Soft & Wet, but that didn't mean that they were out in the clear yet. All it meant was that they were just a step closer to winning.
And once Kujo used Soft & Wet's ability on her, that would mean for the rest of the exam he couldn't use it again, lest she catch up to them. And that was assuming that Star and Stripe didn't already have a plan in mind for them.
"But then again, I don't have any better ideas. At least with All Might I know that he's super strong. But with Star and Stripe, I don't know anything. I can assume that she just has super strength, but if that were the case, then why would All Might be so amazed by her Quirk? All Might wouldn't just seek someone out because of their Quirk, that I know considering he picked me, a Quirkless kid. So that means it has to be something that even All Might couldn't ignore…."
As Izuku thought this, he looked back up at the timer above the gate. 30 seconds were left until the exam began. "Uh, Midoriya? Are you good over there? You're sweating pretty badly," Kujo pointed out as Izuku sighed.
"Yeah, no, I'm good. It's just… I'm stressing myself out over nothing. Your plan should work! Uh, but… maybe use a different word for that, it sounds kind of… you know…." As Izuku said that, Josefumi raised an eyebrow before suddenly realizing what that could have implied, making him chuckle nervously.
"Oh, um, yeah, oops! You're right, though, I should probably change it up a bit. It does sound kinda like that doesn't it!" Kujo joked, bumping Midoriya with his elbow. His expression drew itself into a frown as he thought. After a few seconds, his eyes lit up, before turning to the green-haired teen. "Well, uh, how about Plunder? I mean, it means the same thing, just less, I don't know… evil?" Josefumi said as Izuku smiled.
"Yeah, that works!"
Just as Izuku said that the timer above the gate counted down from five. As the number decreased, the gates began to open. Smoke began to pour out as if it were some sort of dramatic scene in a movie, all the while an automated female voice came over the speakers.
"FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS, CLASS 1 – A! YOUR FINAL EXAMS BEGIN IN 3… 2… 1…! START!!! GOOD LUCK, AND PLUS ULTRA!!!!"
Kujo Josefumi, Stand Soft & Wet and Midoriya Izuku, Quirk One For All, stepped forward and entered the faux city. Their opponent: America's number one Hero: Star and Stripe, Cathleen Bate. And her Quirk?
