2.16 - nezu hates [first name]

Aizawa slightly smirked. "[last name], you will be going against UA's Big Three."

There were jumbled mutters from the class, asking who the Big Three were. You were surprised they didn't know, as all three of the students were pretty popular.

"The Big Three?" Izuku gasped with big, shaky eyes.

Your eyes widened in recognition and you quickly pulled off your helmet with an astonished face. Your helmet messed up your hair. Your mouth opened in a large grin. "M- Mirio-senpai!" you couldn't help but squeal. You hadn't seen much of him since the Sports Festival, but you knew he was a great person.

"Hey, [first name]-kouhai!" His smile seemed to get bigger. His hand reached behind the tree and pulled out another boy, this one was around the same height as you and had a lean build. He had sharp elf-like ears and dark blue-indigo hair in a cute hairstyle. He had a really cute face – like a fairy! "C'mon, Tamaki! The first-years don't bite! That's the girl I told you about." It was Amajiki Tamaki, the third-year with an impressive shape-shifting quirk.

He stiffened, muttering a few things and turning his back on the crowd of students staring at him. Mirio only laughed at his friend's behavior.

It was the highly-esteemed Big Three, or UA's most promising students. All three of them have already surpassed the skills of many Pros. They were all in their hero costumes. You then finally registered Eraserhead's words and froze.

You were fighting them. All three of them?

Oh my Gosh.

Your mood did a whole 360. Instead of being excited to see Mirio, you were suddenly shaking out of the heavy dread enveloping you. All three. You can't even beat one of them, so why all three!? Holy shit, you're gonna fail.

Your head dropped in presaged defeat and you began walking towards the school. A hand landed on your shoulder, holding you back, and you slowly turned to see Present Mic's grinning face. "HEYYY! What's got you so emo, Bug Girl!! Come on, try at least!"

"Sensei..." you darkly muttered. "You're all crazy..."

Kirishima stiffened. "Sensei, isn't three-on-one a bit... unmanly...? Especially since they're so much more experienced than [last name]-chan..."

The rest of the class seemed to share this sentiment. Though, Bakugou showed it in a different way.

"You're just setting Bug Face up for failure at this point." A twisted grin appeared on his face. He believed he could easily beat the Big Three. They can't possibly be all that. "You must really not want her in the Hero Course... Hah! Great judgment!"

You turned to the mouse principal, and lowered your head in shame. "Nezu-san, I would like to fight 1-A." You'd rather fight twenty amateurs than three pros. You remembered watching Mirio at the Sports Festival, and fear ran down your spine. The way he used his quirk was so- It was beyond perfect! He could probably beat All Might.

No way can you beat that.

Nezu heartily cackled, throwing his head back in amusement. "Oh, [last name]-san! I didn't know you knew Togata-san! Are you friends? And you don't get a choice!" he sang as he wagged one of his short fingers at you, and you couldn't help but think about how cute the pink pads of his paws were. "All the pairings have been predetermined!"

"But I can't do a one-on-three!" you argued, a distraught look on your face as you crossed a pair of your arms in an x motion. "This isn't fair, Nezu-san." How can you, a mere General Education, win against three of UA's best Heroics students?? Are they trying to kill you??
