And so time passed for the students suspended.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cgIZFjakz
Unable to go to U.A, they mostly self-trained, studied, or relaxed. For Izuku specifically, he got more comfortable with his powers and his current romantic relationship.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F7bVMQanF
It was peaceful, something the boy greatly appreciated. But eventually the time to return to school arrived, and with it the possibility of more conflicts.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEowwE17VhN
But now?
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV4q4XDOgJ
Izuku is confident he can face them.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaWwz8TDYK
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD7kz5hX4v
Aizawa: “Welcome back, problem children.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpsZd7an0p
The teacher said in front of the restored class. After catching up with each other, the class resumed as usual. Like they never left.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHsgyM145N
Aizawa: “Now that the class is back to normal, we need to help those behind catch up. Winter break is fast approaching, but I’m sure you all don’t want another break to waste away too. So we’ll be going to a Winter Break Forest Lodge.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkY7OGEdjq
The whole class erupted in cheers. A forest lodge, even in winter, means hot baths, fireworks, and good food.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmDtS6cAZ4
Aizawa: “However, should any of you fall short of a passing grade for the end-of-year final exams, then you’re stuck in school, in remedial hell.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LL4HgAVzT
And that’s when the cheers slowly died down as the words sunk in.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJJmGAwETn
Denki: “I haven’t studied at aaaalll!! With the sport festival, workplace experience, training, and I-Island, I never stopped to properly study!!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB6BeHLEiu
Tokoyami: “Indeed.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihjwtXWB0g
Mina: “Ah hahaha, me neither.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV3bhkTdOO
Says the 14/15, 10/15, and 13/15 students when it comes to grades. As for the bottom…
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVphUnGE9ws
Kiri: “Ugh.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJPsVN30Xc
15/15.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS42HRIyvM3
Yeah, the break, inner crises, and relationship drama didn’t really allow for the poor girl to catch up to her peers. That, and she didn’t like studying.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjZqcop7d1
Izuku: “Don’t worry, Kiri, I’ll help you study.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFozQ8IEpeG
8/15.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOsb6LR0Ms
Denki: “How?! You were suspended!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7ER0v4grR
Izuku: “I studied when I could and asked Aizawa for the work I missed. I couldn’t do everything, but it helped.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz5vRPHcAl
Ida: “Bravo, Midoriya! Bravo! I did the same!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6yAALhs4Z
5/15.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2kSDGFSTi
Denki: “Seriously!?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1N19Dpqej
Mina: “You think that’s impressive? Look at Yaomomo.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQguZt3ntPE
Momo: “Haha.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RLXsryWvb
2/15.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bmR5FqPEB
Denki: “Missed days, and she still gets top scores. That’s insane.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPyZCOig9J
Todoroki: “You were actually in class; you shouldn’t be getting failing grades.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Jsm5eZg4X
3/15.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnH2tvUO8y
Denki: “Mind your words!!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmOCE7eMTY
He says while grabbing his chest from the emotional damage. Meanwhile, Izuku smiles at the boy’s antics while glancing at Ida’s new leg.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlGrSIJuNE
Izuku: ‘Good to see it’s holding up. Melissa probably gave it a checkup over the suspension, all while getting used to U.A. I’m glad Ida can enjoy school again.’
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z39sreFhA
Thinking back on what caused this to happen, the boy’s eyes darken.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ024srwdd2v
Izuku: ‘I won’t let anything like that happen again. But to focus on that, I still need to take care of a couple of things.’
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA8X7ZeZvG
He turns to the current top scorer in the class, Bakugo. The explosive boy doesn’t turn to face Izuku, but he knows he’s being watched.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ5wpc9Pps
Aizawa: “Enough.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe2u3mrkd6
Everyone stopped talking and returned back to front.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF53DoBuSN
Aizawa: “If you don’t want to fall behind, you should take initiative like those suspended. If you have to, create a study group.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeKYXpQdXS
Momo: “Oh, we can do that at my house! I would love to help everyone with the technical side of the exams. Izuku and Kiri can help with the practicals.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNi54Aqh3o
Izuku: “Yeah, that sounds good.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeffKNq8Ll9
Kiri: “Nh.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXELYhCu7R
Jiro: “Really? Thanks, Momo.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZStGkRfcOp
Mina: “Yaomomo, you’re a lifesaver!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EZqhhTk71
Kirishima: “Yeah, let’s do our best, everybody!! For the Forest Lodge!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEw9ZxLKZ6
Everyone: “For Forest Lodge!!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZD3G3MHebO
Aizawa: “Quiet.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhgaKrgJe3
…
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfBNeZh4CR
…
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEhEZJIn8G
Aizawa: “You all still have normal classwork to deal with first. So let’s begin.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8BN0M8uZG
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhCdJJ6lES
After the intense classwork the group had to do, it was time to relax at lunch. In addition to the usual suspects, another girl decided to sit and eat with them.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXhhJgmb1o
Melissa: “Hey, everyone.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGLDhJtXQZ
After everyone gave their own form of hello to the girl they met on their recent adventure, Izuku asked the first important question.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CKRF8BJlq
Izuku: “How are you liking U.A?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxfHMPX5Yu
Melissa: “It’s amazing! Everyone is super nice, and their quirks are a wonder to see up close. Nothing really compares to you guys, but it’s the experience that counts.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVL01bNeYw
Ida: “I’m happy to hear it. Thank you and Yaoyorozu again for everything you’ve done.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKEpcBydTF
Melissa: “No, it’s fine. I’m happy to help.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iUpamGw29
Momo: “I feel the same. I’m just glad you can be a hero again.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S4LiQUwOJ
Denki: “Yeah! It’s great to see you back in action, man.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXJpmf91hq
Kiri: “Nh.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDxs27BMwT
Ida: “You’re all too kind, thank you.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCNya9OJxk
Melissa: “I’m glad to see our Engine Project is working so well. But I hope we did enough for your upcoming exams.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGCWskAMrC
Ida: “I’m confident you did.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXTQyOlKJn
Izuku: “But it is worrying that we can’t know what will be on the practical test exercise.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNzenD6OnV
Ida: “Nothing too wild, I would think.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r5KsYBFxc
Deciding to join the growing conversation, Uraraka and some of the other girls nearby chipped in.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xegn0QHWb
Uraraka: “We can still pull it off, the normal subject test, that is. Especially with Yaoyorozu helping.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUf4oBK1Fo
Mina: “Yeah! Yaomomo, you got this.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbopR5dIDN
Momo: “You know I’m not taking the test for you, right?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUCP7DrzVR
Kirishima: “But what will the normal subject test be about?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MlJu4CN3C
Tsuyu: “Aizawa said it will be an overall summary of what we did this semester. But he didn’t tell us anything apart from that. Kero.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeYjqcCKl9
Uraraka: “He gave us the battle trials and rescue. The rest was almost all basic training.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqH259EZU0s
Denki: “So basically, we just study everything and train until we-”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgPtQjBhS4
Denki: “Oww!!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsJMBpI6Q0
It was then that Denki’s head was hit by someone’s elbow. The group turns to see one of the class B kids behind Denki.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIIvDEVuIF
Denki: “What’s the big deal!?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFa1VMvobM
Jiro: “Yeah, you… what’s your name again?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTAZPuZMQ0
Mina: “Moron something?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbmnRRa5ih
Neito: “It’s Neito Monoma you-!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBhUEbgEo8
Taking a breath, the boy reclaimed his cool and answered the first question.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYAVBmcKs3
Neito: “My bad, your head was so big that I ended up hitting it by accident.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv9m70RQoy
Denki: “Tch, sure you did.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqfCDZwF1K
Neito: “Hey, I heard some of you fought the Hero Killer.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6pDi0sA1H
The class table suddenly got colder as their eyes narrowed at the soon-to-be corpse if he didn’t keep his mouth shut. But run his mouth he did.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWkrc9b7qg
Neito: “The ways in which you’ve been basking in the spotlight have only multiplied ever since the school festival, haven’t they, Class A? Only the attention you’re grabbing isn’t out of exceptional skill, but instead the attention you’re grabbing is in the form of trouble!!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58XmaksAQc
Under the slightly floating table, fists are being clenched. One more slight, and hands might be thrown. Yet still, the man keeps going.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaoReeOky8
Neito: “Man, it’s so scary! One day, we might get wrapped up in the trouble you lot call out of the woodwork, and then we’ll get hurt! So scary, I-PWAH!!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQoNoQJffL
Luckily for him, he was saved by a sharp chop to the back of the head.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBPYXkMN27
Kendo: “That’s not funny. Don’t you know what happened to Ida?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFFFhB1G94
Kirishima: “Yeah… he was going too far.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4bnlbn4Q5
Kiri: “Nh.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjHzBb4wqV
Kendo: “Sorry about him. This kid’s heart is… well… you know how it goes.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiY7fTMNe7
Mina: “I think it’s his head, not his heart.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftFN7sP3zA
Izuku: “Either way, it’s no excuse.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45Kub6ZGgB
Kendo: “I know. Almost makes me wish I let Akashi do this instead. But I was sure she would have put him in the hospital.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiDALW4hhb
Kiri: “Well deserved.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB0SwkfCwG
Kendo: “Anyway, let me make it up to you. I heard you say that you couldn’t know what the final exam exercise would be. Well, I’m told it’ll be like the entrance exam. That is, a battle simulation exercise fighting against robots.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazHbr6o5ml
Izuku: “Really? How do you know?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCemIn8JFar
Kendo: “I know an upperclassman personally and asked. I know that’s kind of cheating but-”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNKcE6FxkR
Izuku: “No, it’s not cheating. It makes perfect sense that the acquisition of prior knowledge would be integrated into the exam structure itself. After all, information gathering is important work.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49HHvzOPUX
Izuku: ‘I should have thought of that. Or read someone’s mind. But that actually would be cheating… I think.’
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVTdv54pwO
Kendo: “Well, when you put it that way, I don’t feel as bad.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZU3kDSbyi
Neito: “Kendo, why? You just threw away our advantage! This was our chance to-”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8zAyxzETO
Kendo: “Quiet. Or I’m telling Sabrina.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wqNt5MMGH
Neito: “… I’ll be quiet.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n1TTWo5Sv
Kendo: “Good. Later, Class A, sorry again.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJpkfuIR7R
With that, the girl carried the fool back to their side of the cafeteria.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22DtaFWjEO
Denki: “You know, she’s kind of like the big sister of Class B, don’t you think?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQeV0RIpLH
Jiro: “If she’s the big sister, then Sabrina must be the mother.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T9dax5N0m
He might be gone, but his words still linger among the group.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6yWWAnUUX
Melissa: “Ida, are you alright?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOg2HpSG5B
Ida: “I’m fine; I won’t let what happened hold me back like that. After all, they’re just words.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH2FjpJlbQ
Melissa: “That’s very mature of you. Still, I guess not everyone here is nice, huh?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvty1FOrFi
Izuku: “Yeah… they’re not.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhcDTJEcsU
Again, the boy looks at Bakugo, who was the only one to sit apart from the rest of the class. Even Todoroki and Tokoyami sat with them, even if they didn’t say much.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu21lOTKacN
Uraraka did try to get him to join, but he shooed her away. So right now, Bakugo is isolated and alone with his thoughts. But those thoughts aren’t his alone. Izuku was tired of waiting.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7c5rk4Gex
Izuku: “Bakugo.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte5hwHeHXE
The boy stilled; sweat dripped from his forehead as the fight-or-flight instinct kicked in.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHSpT0IKVk
Izuku: “Don’t react. Just listen. Today is the day. Tell Uraraka, or I will. Tonight, we settle things at the park where I first fought you when we were kids. Nod if you understand.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91yjUWp0Na
Unbeknownst to all, he gave a slight nod.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLVCtyUrqy
Izuku: “Good.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfhIbISTm5
Back at the table, Denki tries to get everyone back on a more lighthearted track
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2k12jSPNR
Denki: “Forget that guy, we should be focusing on what Kendo said. If the practical exam is just robots, it will be a walk in the park!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrMIGYmVTC
Mina: “Yep! No holding back! Easy as pie!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo5QT5QiYD
Tsuyu: “Will it really be as easy as the entrance exam?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYGY04Hrvk
Uraraka: “Yeah, they could throw an army at us.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSI40zMeTe
Jiro: “I doubt they have the budget for that.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTxMTLd7lx
Denki: “Right? So we’re shoe-ins for the frost lodge!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc24OICYS3N
Seeing that the conversation was returned to something more jovial, Izuku returned his focus to eating. There’s something far more important than exams on his mind right now.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp4HyHVOsY
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHK3sydbLv
Soon the day ended, signaling the last chance for Bakugo to tell Uraraka.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWzL17pEiZ
Izuku: ‘He’ll probably tell her while walking out of school.’
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ekfoFwSAT
With that in mind, Izuku turned to the two girls walking with him and made a choice.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqemQhhnaF9
Izuku: “Momo, Kiri, I need to stay behind.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82CYHgo9YW
Momo: “What’s wrong?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgOMnSiJrc
Kiri: “… Bomb Boy?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauYZ65vGnG
Izuku: “Yeah.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QTCzmqJeh
He proceeds to explain his plans and the conversation he had with his former bully.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdFnCV9BSX
Momo: “I’m glad you didn’t do anything like that, Izuku.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCiyRZHvZr
Kiri: “… I guess.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanz2fT0uVV
Momo: “Kiri! He can’t kill Bakugo; he’s trying to be a hero.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkgI4iHSzD
The girl sighs before explaining herself.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8GBaubuwI
Kiri: “I know, but… I hate him. For years, I felt what Onii felt, the negativity that nearly caused him to… ”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdYRRjVFBN
Kiri held her arms as those particularly bad days floated to the surface of her mind.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3GJMyk1qT
Izuku: “I… don’t know if I would have survived without Kiri eating the worst of my negative emotions.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUhAbolLnd
Momo: “I’m sorry you two had to go through that.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfebDRlXJG
Like a mother with her children, Momo hugs them both.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LH2GNyiPe
Izuku: “Thank you, Momo.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTEEfoZFMf
Kiri: “Nh.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraBUe377Qi
Momo: “Always. But still, don’t let what he did to you change who you are. You are not a killer.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnXzMBZep4
Kiri: “Agreed. Hero.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lyOw9oHzI
Izuku: “… You’re right. Thank you.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfzlNCc7DT
With that, he said his last goodbyes. Kiri won’t wait for him and will instead inform Inko that Izuku will be late due to handling his past trauma. Yes, his mother should know what is happening. His sisters too, when they are ready to talk.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKY4k7UpH9B
Waving his girls goodbye, Izuku narrowed his eyes and faded into the dark shadows cast by the dying sun. It is here where he sees Bakugo calling out to Uraraka.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0hgDyDEU0
Bakugo: “Round Face! I need to talk to you.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUdVQS3rEG
The poor girl nearly jumped out of her skin when called. But it was just surprise; she quickly recomposed herself and went to Bakugo.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fhbCSLYvI
Bakugo: “…. Follow me.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X2x4axU7P
Uraraka: “Um… okay.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRsDUoYe6s
Izuku can see the blush forming on Uraraka’s face and instantly knows the feelings are mutual.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf39XGjg52u
Izuku: ‘All the more reason.’
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0pd9EqEAm
Uraraka followed Bakugo to the back of the school, a relatively private area. This only made her blush deepen further. This was the perfect place for a confession.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13zcCXVIaT
But it won’t be one she’s thinking of.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPTTiXRbk8
When they reached their destination, Uraraka fidgeted with her fingers before asking the question.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinCqk5UTiv
Uraraka: “S-So, Bakugo, what did you want to talk about?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAipFZpbrVy
Her voice was soft, like an angel’s, and somehow had an edge of seduction to it. She didn’t know how this little encounter would end, but she was prepared and eager for nearly anything Bakugo asked of her.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpS6A2fPi2
Bakugo: “Listen… I…”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhULeGCimh
He gritted his teeth as oxygen became harder to intake. Izuku was still nearby, able to sense them both and their surface thoughts.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUtjQyPDfX
Bakugo: ‘Why is she looking at me like that?! She looks… cute… do I really… damn it! I don’t want to do thi-!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlom1QPJWp
Izuku: “But you will. You will tell her everything you did to me.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERpx5SDSrl
Bakugo stilled in horror. Yes, Izuku was still around. He couldn’t escape this.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aAKmeUqyU
Uraraka: “Bakugo, are you okay?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ77y4a71wx
She goes to touch his arm. Bold, but considering the circumstances, she thought it appropriate.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh7O5Sr7KW
But not Bakugo, he backed away and showed a fear Uraraka never thought she’d see on his face.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt17beUqYlZ
Uraraka: “Bakugo?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeWNxnlM8n
Bakugo: “Round face… I… Damn it!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKgIMfz3U1
There it was, and Izuku couldn’t help but smile. Bakugo let it all out, everything he did to him. It was a mess of emotions laced with the occasional excuse, insult, or deflection.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv2EkAvsJs
The frustration with the situation, coupled with the desire to not lose this connection, caused Bakugo to try and lessen his actions.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4TNMpWGTU
But he couldn’t; Uraraka wasn’t dumb. So over the course of those scream-filled minutes, her face became increasingly pale.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEOh2PmASk
The rough but, deep down, well-meaning boy she was slowly falling for was gone. The respect she held for him shattered.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKVKzjl8ou
Who she thought Bakugo was, wasn’t real. No, this boy was someone who bullied her friend to near suicide. This boy betrayed someone he used to consider a friend just because he was quirkless.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUH5B3dlmJ
That was if she bullied Ida for losing his legs and becoming essentially quirkless. She could never.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhPu4tYJ4Q
The fact Izuku came out as good as he did is a miracle. That miracle has a name, but she doesn’t know it, so Bakugo seemed even worse.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbfwLuwRiR
In the end, she stood stunned while Bakugo breathed like he just ran a marathon. He looked to the girl he was developing feelings for and asked-
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeCuGJlLVL
Bakugo: “Well!?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZdyfh0vx1
A moment later, his cheek was stung by the slap of a heartbroken woman. His eyes widen as he slowly turns back to a tearful Uraraka.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s8zpy1JPj
Uraraka: “B-Bakugo… I-I don’t know why you told me this. A small part of me wants to believe you did so to show how serious you are about me. No secrets between us, you know. But this? I… I can’t… ”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAx62kNCpt
Bakugo: “But-”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FLTR8AHwL
Uraraka: “We’re trying to be heroes!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjTrfo3RUI
Bakugo: “I will be a hero!! The number 1 hero! I’ll surpass All Might!”

Uraraka: “You don’t deserve that! What kind of hero bullies someone to suicide? What kind of hero betrays their best friend?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheDIfZXVBI
Bakugo: “Deku isn’t my friend!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm9oOnJoLF
Uraraka: “… I guess he isn’t. But he is mine. More than that, I can’t be with someone who shows no remorse for what he’s done.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtqiIFsGyF
Bakugo: “So that’s it!? You’ll just leave because of fucking Deku! Do you like him or something!? What? You want to be a part of his harem too!?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFvvT3ztxE
Uraraka only cries harder from his cutting remarks. Unable to take much more of this emotional turmoil, she turns around.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuvo4tIr82
Uraraka: “G-Goodbye, B-Bakugo.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWF7kOoHmIN
With that, she walked away. It was then that Bakugo fully realized what he had done. Who was walking from him.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5sktQsXIp
Bakugo: “Round face, get back here!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodnWFzWoTB
She continues.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmODpb1eDxh
Bakugo: “Damn it! Stop, wait!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9QWKPHIdj
She’s almost around the corner.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwS4LvJuxP
Bakugo: “Uraraka!”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaO8QtCZfq
She was gone.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gfwujhbhI
His head drops as he realizes that he only made things worse with his last words to her. But he was so angry! He couldn’t control what came out of his mouth.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dLSjk1ehF
But that anger has long faded; only emptiness remains.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9lPklmXyr
Bakugo: “I-I’m… sorry.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZDwdyWTO3
Izuku: “She’s not the one you should be begging for forgiveness.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPQpG48QUM
Bakugo: “DEKU!! THIS IS ALL YOUR-”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEc2kXcLWW
Turning around, he saw a truly horrifying sight. The once golden glow of the sun seemed to choke and die as Izuku walked toward him, turning into a sickly black and green.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsy5XQDvpjE
Bakugo: ‘Is this… real?’
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn6Ob5yd10
He was stunned with fear, unable to move as Izuku approached him with a cruel smile. The prince patted Bakugo’s red cheek as his final words of the evening echoed in his mind.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelxjnUiNtu
Izuku: “Good job, Bakugo. All that is left is our fight; don’t be late.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaevkDLwTLJ
And just like that, Izuku was gone, and the light returned to the world. But not to Bakugo’s mind and soul.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl2UINaMSp
He looks to the sky and knows, deep down, this will only get worse.

Izuku reappeared in some alleyway and covered his mouth. It felt sooooo good to see that. A maddening laughter escaped his hands as his eyes rapidly flashed several dozen colors.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv45SOxPX0
Clearly, the beings in his mind also enjoyed the show. They wanted to do more, so much more to him. Izuku was tempted to let them.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeonumMNIw
But he won’t.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dcdidXBJj
Reaffirming control over himself and the legion within, Izuku leaned against the nearby wall.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9EqAipdmC
Izuku: “N-No, I’m a hero. I won’t kill or torture him… much. And this is my fight. No one will interfere, understand?”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi7N2iU7cl
The legion obeys the prince, retreating into the shadows of the depths.
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWs0V6h2Ql
Izuku: “Still, you can still enjoy the show. I won’t lie, I like getting back at Bakugo. And I’ll enjoy it even more tonight.”
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnugwReIzP
Izuku: ‘I can’t wait.’
