Chapter Nine

I reached into the box that would decide what team I would end up in and took out a ball with the letter F on it.

I looked around, searching for someone with the same ball in hand, considering that the thing was orange, it should be easy to find.

...Ah, there.

Walking up to the... Exhibitionist?

Why was she dressed like that? I know her quirk let her create anything, which was stupidly overpowered, by the way, but what the hell was wrong with that suit?

"Hey! You on team F too?"

I held up my orange ball, causing the black-haired girl to look at what I was holding, and nodded, keeping her serious expression.

A dominatrix perhaps?

"Momo Yayorozu."

You know, I seem to notice this trend about not asking for people's names but getting them anyway...

I never asked for sex, can I get some of that too?

"Izuku Midoriya. Pleasure."

There was no handshake, just a nod of the head and the "I don't give a shit about you" tone.

Which wasn't an exaggeration, I didn't really care about this girl... Come to think of it, I didn't really care about anyone in this world, everybody could die any second, All Might was getting weaker, anyone could kill him if they aimed for the wound. My classmates were just kids, not knowing how intense a real battlefield could be, and my mother... If somebody targeted her and I wasn't there...

"All Right, everyone gather around! The first battle will be!... These two teams!"

He took out an F and J out of the boxes, with J being the villain and F being the hero...

Coincidently, it was Bakugo's team with Fumikage Tokoyami...

Interesting set up indeed.

"Would Team F and J remain here while the others follow me to the viewing room? The villain team will have 10 minutes to prepare!"

...Great.

Looks like Izuku and Bakugo are fated to fight... Hmm, well, not like I can change "Fate", but looks like the "Big" events will still be the same, though minor changes are still probable.

Well, that could be a problem...

"Good luck, bro!"

I waved at Kirishima as he walked off with the rest of the class. Looking back at the building Bakugo and Tokoyami were entering. The Neanderthal was scowling at me but that was a minor concern.

"Do we have a plan?"

She asked and I hummed out a thoughtful hum... You know, I seem to hum a lot lately.

"Bakugo has a personal grudge against me, so he is likely to come straight for me. should be easy to take down. Tokoyami's quirk seemed complicated but it seems that he can call out a shadow from his body to fight his battles... I don't know if we can knock out the shadow but if we deal with the user, then the quirk won't be a problem."

I put a hand on my chin, thinking about what the hell could I do to do absolutely nothing and still win.

"Can you make sleeping gas?"

I asked, looking at Yayorozu.

She frowned and shook her head.

"I haven't tried to make gas, so far I can make solid objects and electronics."

Fuck!

"Well... can you make a flashlight?"

I asked and she deadpanned, holding out her hand as a flash light literally came out of her palm accompanied by rainbow-colored particles.

Great!

I smiled and grabbed it.

turning it on and off again.

"Are you a child?"

I turn to her and deadpanned myself.

"Now after they told me that the tooth fairy, easter bunny, and Santa Claus weren't real. But that's beside the point. Bakugo sweats Nitroglycerin, side effects are dehydration and headaches, if he's cold enough he won't sweat unless he's doing something excessive... So... got a plan?"

This time, it was me who questioned her if she had a plan. In all honesty, we didn't need a plan. If I knew Bakugo, and I knew Bakugo, a single kick to the jaw would put him out of the fight and Tokoyami... well, that's why I had the flashlight, right?

"Do you know if Bakugos quirk will stop functioning if his hands get wet?"

I smirked. Smart girl.

"In fact, that's why he wears those gloves."

[The time is up!]

"Alright, here's the plan, I take us to the roof, blow off the roof, get as much sunlight inside the building as possible, since this is an exercise and the bomb is fake, we can use that to our advantage. I will take care of Bakugo, and you use flashbangs to blind Tokoyami."

She took too long.

She stared at me blankly for a moment, before nodding, slightly mollified.

"Uh- I don't know how to make flashbangs..."

Oh yeah, you can make a scooter, but not a simple flash bang? Fucking... Ugh!

I tossed her two of mine, which she fumbled with before finally catching them.

"Why do you have flash bangs?"

I turned to her, watching her from the corner of my eye.

"Reasons. Now, you want to get on my back or should I carry you?"

She blushed. I rolled my eyes.

Thirty percent of One for all crackled around my body and I waited for her to decide. When she didn't answer after a minute, deciding that fidgeting was a better idea, I just threw her over my shoulder, getting a yelp in return, and jumped to the roof.

Teenagers. Get your mind out of your hormone-induced gutter, kid, you ain't my type.
