Episode Fifteen
The class went by slower than usual. She stared at the clock waiting for the bell to ring, and as soon as it did, y/n ran towards the doors, but as she slid open the door, she was met with almost everyone in the entire school.
At least that's what it seemed like. Y/n jumped back, startled. "What the hell is this!"
"Why the heck are you all here!" Uraraka yelled, also startled by the sudden appearance
Iida raised one of his robotic hands "do you students have some sort of business with our class."
Mineta was next to jump in. "Why are you blocking our doorway?" He pumped a small fist into the air. "I won't let you hold us hostage!!"
In the middle of her classmate's questions, Y/n realized what was happening. She sneered as Bakugo walked passed her with a bored expression
"They're scouting out the competition, idiots."
Y/n began to frown, knowing Bakugo was bound to take this whole thing further than he had to. She rolled her eyes
"Great, here he goes again."
"We're the class that survived a real villain attack. They wanna see us with their own eyes," Bakugo added
"At least now you know what a future pro looks like" he paused before giving the students a sharp downward glare
"Now move it, extras!"
That's what I was talking about. He just had to open his mouth; y/n thought looking him up and down
"You can't just walk around calling people extras because you don't know who they are!" Iida yelled from behind both you and Bakugo
"So this is class 1-A. I heard you guys were impressive, but you just sound like an ass, is everyone in the hero course delusional or just you?"
Y/n lurked behind Bakugo, not sure what she could say that could stop him from saying something stupid which could possibly have everyone in their grade hate 1-A
"How sad to come here and find a bunch of egomaniacs.. I wanted to be in the hero course, but like many others here, I was forced to choose a different track,"
His head tilted. "Such as life, I didn't cut it the first time around, but I have another chance.."
He gazed in bakugos eyes unafraid, "if any of us do well in the sports festival, the teachers could decide to transfer us to the hero course, an' they'll have to transfer people out to make room."
Y/n crossed her arms with a sour glare aimed at this mysterious boy. Who does he think he is? Bakugos dumbass started it, but that doesn't mean everyone is like him; y/n couldn't help but think
"Scouting the competition? Maybe some of my peers are, but I'm here to let you know, if you don't bring your very best, I'll steal your spot right from under you. Consider this a declaration of war."
You clenched your fists as you sighed, letting go of all the tension in your body. Still, y/n kept her mouth shut, not wanting to drag her whole class down the social rabbit hole.
Most people were already jealous of 1-A. She didn't want to make it any worst
"Hey, you! I'm from class 1-B next door to you! We heard you fought some villains, and I came to see if that was true, but you're just a bunch of brats who think they're better than us!!"
A random guy yelled in the crowd as Y/n tried to keep her calm. She frowned with an amused scoff and shake of her head
"Talk all you want. It'll just be more embarrassing when you're K.O" Bakugo also seemed not to care as he walked away "don't you ignore me!"
"Dude, where are you going?! You've gotta say something. It's all your fault they're hating on us, Bakugo!" Kirishima yelled
Y/n pointed a finger at him. "Actually, he doesn't," Kirishima's eyes bulged out of their sockets as y/n stood in front of the crowd glaring directly in the purpled haired boy's eyes
Bakugo paused to hear what you had to say
"you're hilarious if you think these gawkers actually matter" Her gaze hardened. "Look. I don't know who you are, but respectfully get outta my damn way."
There was a short pause. "Just as she said," Bakugo gestured towards Y/n, who raised her eyebrows once the main guy thought he could intimidate her, "these people don't matter. The only thing that's important is that I beat them."
Bakugo had his point. At first, he was wrong for starting with them, but there was really no need for them to characterize a whole class using the only person that spoke.
That's what had gotten Y/n mad. She doubted she would've said anything if they only kept their words to specifically Bakugo
With that being said, the blonde disappeared into the crowd as the boy from earlier yelled after him, "Hey! I'm coming for you!"
"I hate that was such a manly exit," Kirishima grumbled from behind you
Y/n gave one last scan of the boy in front of her before she walked back to her class, not wanting to push her way through a pile of kids.
"I'll have to agree. The Jack ass was a little cool."
Sato had his thumb and pointer finger wrapped around his chin. "Well. He said it"
"We have to beat them. He wasn't wrong" Tokoyami even agreed
"Huh?- yeah, sure, this sucks; he made us everyone's enemy."
"Yeah!!-" y/n cut Mineta off mid-sentence
"Think about it. We're the class of first-years who fought villains. Any rational person would go for the people on top. It'll give them more recognition."
A beat of silence passed. "That's what villains do anyway" Y/n shrugged
"I thought you were like me, but that was pretty smart.." Kaminari dramatically slouched
Y/n rubbed his back. "Don't worry. My brain stopped at long division."
The next few days were hellish for Y/n, her training was doubled at school, and the vigorous, seemingly endless exercise from her father wasn't something she looked forward to.
Neither were Junichiro's disappointed yells or sighs when she did something wrong but at least she was getting a better handle on her quirk, she learned how to release fire balls so far they're small but she'll get better with time.
Y/n felt something hit the side of her head. She flinched, taking in her surroundings, and saw Midoriya worriedly staring at her.
"Are you ok? You spaced out for a second"
Y/n lightly hopped, trying to shake her thoughts away as she double punched the boxing pads on Midoriyas forearms
"Yeah, I'm fine" she did the same movement adding in a jab and right hook. "Just thinking," she punched again as Midoriya winced
"Must be a bad thought, given how hard you're punching my arms right now," he joked with a slight chuckle
Y/n glanced over the padding, looking Midoriya in his eyes. "Sorry," she breathed, continuing her training
"Hey, I wanted to try something" y/n gave one final jab to one of the pads
"Oh yeah? What is it?" Midoriya put his arms down to let him rest for a second as Y/n explained her idea
"I wanted to try the tornado kick" the greenette tilted his head to the side, a habit he has when he doesn't know what something means
Y/n grabbed his shoulders, pulling him in the right direction and fixing his forearms to where you're meant to kick. "Basically, I jump and kick your right arm with my left leg. Then on the way down, I do the same but with the opposite leg."
Midoriya took a second to think of what you just told him before he repositioned his hand. "Ok- whenever you're ready."
Y/n took a deep breath before leaping in the air while her left foot collided with the padding. She swiveled her hips mid-air. As her left foot was about to make contact with the ground, she lifted her right leg
And repeated the same motion
"So, how was that?" Y/n asked, slightly panting
Midoriya's eyes were wide as he smiled, nodding his head. "It was pretty cool-"
"Woah, what was that!"
Y/n looked towards the gym door seeing Kirishima and Bakugo. She flinched, wiping the sweat off her forehead, looking between both boys.
"I didn't hear you guys come in."
Midoriya lowers his arms with a small hiss of pain. He didn't expect your kick to be that powerful. While you were talking with Kirishima and purposely ignoring bakugos presence, Midoriya gazed at you
I don't wanna imagine what it would feel like with the padding..; thought Midoriya as he rubbed his shoulder and forearms
"So, you are you guys down for it?" Kirishima asked, glancing between the both of you
"Yeah, sure," you looked towards the confused greenette "Midoriya?"
His body jolted. "What are we talking about?"
Bakugo scoffed. "I knew this was a bad idea, shitty hair! That damn nerd wasn't even paying attention."
Just as he was about to storm out of the gym in a fit of petty rage, Y/n caught his wrist, forcefully dragging him next to Kirishima as he tried wriggling out of your grasp to no avail.
"Shut the fuck up, and let's tell him again" Y/n purposefully threw his arm into his side
Kirishima cleared his throat. "We were talking about a little bit of sparing, Bakugo Vs. L/n and me Vs. Midoriya," he paused, "you down?"
Midoriya gulped. "Sure, let's go outside so we'll have some more room.."
"Finally a good match," Y/n said with a smirk as she cracked her knuckles
Bakugo scoffed with a smirk of his own, "I'll murder you."
"Can't wait to see you try."
Kirishima yelled from a distance, "READY!"
Both Bakugo and Y/n got into their fighting stances as Y/n put up her fists
"Three!!"
"Two!!"
"One!"
"FIGHT!"
Bakugo didn't hesitate in going for Y/n's face with an explosion, as he hit his target with a widening grin, "what's wrong!!" he yelled, grabbing Y/n's arm, as she allowed him to throw her to the ground
Once the smoke cleared, he could see Y/n was smiling up at him, "Dumbass" with one word, Bakugos confident grin melted away
The blonde fell into your plan with little to no effort, he's always been the act first guy, and y/n knew his explosions didn't affect her as much as they did others. With this knowledge, she needed him to get close to her.
Y/n grasped Bakugos wrist using her flames. He hissed in pain as he leaped off of Y/n. Bakugo held his burnt wrist, waiting for your next attack.
Y/n lunged towards the boy who fired explosion after explosion, which you skillfully dodged, until you were close enough.
Y/n activated her quirk, sucker-punching Bakugo in his stomach. He doubled over in pain as you took hold of his hair, throwing him to the ground.
He trembled, "D-damnit!!"
Unexpectedly he used an explosion to get himself back on his feet. Y/n couldn't help but smirk, knowing this was going to be a good fight
Both quickly charged at each other with the same amount of force
"And before I knew it, none of us won"
Y/n was over at Todoroki's for a last-minute workout. She suggested it since they hadn't been to each other's houses since they were little kids, and she wanted to see her cousins.
Not uncle Enji, he could go fuck himself, in her words
"You fought for 20 minutes, and neither of you guys won the match?"
Y/n stretched to the side, touching her left foot. "Yeah, it was so stupid, too, because Midoriya and Kirishima had to pull us apart."
"And why was that"
You stood up straight, doing air quotes. "We were going to kill each other" y/n rolled her eyes
"Seems reasonable to me."
Y/n offendedly gasped, "Don't agree with that bull shit in front of me."
Todoroki shrugged. "I'd rather have you safe with wounded pride than dead."
"Oh whatever, wanna see this new kick that I learned yesterday?"
He looked at you curiously before stopping his stretches. "Sur-" Todoroki was cut off by his sister walking outside holding a plate of some sandwiches. They were neatly arranged, and cut symmetrically.
"Guys! I brought food!" She sat the sandwiches on the elevated wooden platform leading to their door
Y/n dropped what she was doing as Fuyumi leaned down, giving her a hug. "It's good to see you. Sorry I missed you on the way in. The school was pretty hectic today."
Fuyumi apologized as Y/n hugged her back. "Don't worry about it" They both pulled away
"Well, eat up!" She walked back inside the house
"Your sister is so nice," Y/n said, taking a bite of one of the sandwiches Fuyumi was kind enough to bring outside for them to enjoy
"Yeah, I guess."
After a few minutes, both of you finished the food. It was a good snack after the short workout, just as the two of you were getting ready to continue training.
The door opened again. Y/n assumed it was Fuyumi as she smiled. "Hey! The sandwiches were..-"
Instead, she came face to face with Endeavor, the only difference was a small growth of facial hair, and it seemed as if he had gotten taller over the years.
Y/n thickly swallowed.
"What do you want, old man?" Questioned Todoroki
"I came to check up on my niece. Junichiro requested it"
Y/n walked towards him with a daring glare. "You could tell Junichiro to shove that request up his-" Todoroki grabbed Y/n's arm, pulling her back before it was too late
"You still lack respect, I see."
Y/n scoffed, "You still lack the ability to surpass All Might but hey! We all have our faults."
Endeavor cracked his jaw, he was obviously seething, but you guessed he promised his brother not to lay a finger on his daughter while you were over.
He towered over you. "You're lucky I respect," he basically spat in your face, "my promises."
Y/n swallowed her ever-growing fear staring into the man's eyes. "You don't scare me." Endeavor scowled as he scanned your unwavering face
"Now. if you don't mind, I'll like to continue my training."
Once he didn't say anything, you stepped back, pulling Todoroki out of his trance. "Don't look at him. Just keep stretching. He'll go away eventually."
You whispered as Todoroki followed your instruction
