It was the next day and school was over as the students were leaving the U.A. High School and go back to their dorms for the day. Ojiro turns to the entrance of the school and sees Kirishima, Rex, and Midoriya who were staying back.
Ojiro : The work study students have extra classes, right?
Kirishima : Yeah!
Midoriya : Sorry.
Ojiro : You don't have to apologize. We'll work on the school festival stuff here.
Rex : Fill us in when we get back at the dorm later!
Ojiro : Okay.
Meanwhile with Jiro, she was walking back to the dorm with Ashido, Shoji, Kaminari, and Bakugo as the students were all talking about the performance they would put on during the festival.
Ashido : The dance choreography and costumes... There's a lot to decide!
Shoji : What do you think people will like?
Kaminari : We should do what's popular. Right, Jiro?
Jiro : Hm...
While Jiro and the others continued to talk about the performance, Bakugo who was walking behind them soon overhears the conversation of two students from general studies.
Agoyamato : Hero course Class 1-A is doing a concert. For us.
Bakugo : ( General studies... )
Togeike : For us? What's that supposed to mean? Aren't they thinking too much of themselves?
Agoyamato : Seriously, they're too carefree. Even though they were attacked by villains, they went to training camp nonchalantly and were attacked again. They even had people injured. Thanks to that even we had to go through a lot. Even though it was all their fault... They've got some nerve...
Bakugo listens to the two general studies students' rant as he becomes irritated by their words.
========================================================================================
The sky changes to an orange color as it was now evening as the scene changes to the Class 1-A dorm as the students were in the common space as they start to discuss their concert and performance.
Iida : The school festival is exactly one month away! We don't have much time so we should decide various things today!
Hagakure : First, we need to decide on a song, huh? What should we do?
Ojiro : I don't know much about stuff like that, so I'll go along with what you guys think.
Shoji : Same here.
Kaminari : Anyway, since it's for everyone, shouldn't we do a song most people know?
Sero : We should do something with a beat!
Ashido : Something you can dance to!
Jiro : If I put together everyone's opinions, then we're looking at a four-on-the-floor new rave type of club rock song. For dance music, we should really be playing EDM, but you guys want to play instruments, right?
Everyone looks at Jiro with a blank expression as they had no idea what she was talking about.
Jiro : Has anyone ever played bass or drums or anything?
Everyone just stares at Jiro in silence.
Jiro : Right. First, the backbone of a band is the drums, but I mainly play guitar, so honestly, I'm still learning drums. Teaching a beginner and practicing myself will be a lot to do in just one month.
Kaminari then remembers something as he turns around to Bakugo.
Kaminari : Oh, didn't you say you were made to take music classes as a kid?
Bakugo : Huh?
Ashido : Really? That's surprising!
Sero : Bakugo, try playing the drums a little.
Bakugo : Like I'd do that.
Sero : *taunting* I hear it's pretty hard.
Bakugo immediately reacts to Sero's taunts as he takes the drum sticks from Sero and plays the drums perfectly, surprising everyone.
Bakugo : Well?!
Jiro : P-Perfect...
Mineta : Wow...
Ashido : There he is— Mr. Talented!
Kaminari : Bakugo's gotta be on the drums!
Bakugo : Huh? I'm not doing something so stupid.
Bakugo stands up and turns his back to everyone and starts to walk away from the common space but is soon stopped by Jiro.
Jiro : Bakugo, please! I mean, if you do it, it'll definitely turn out good!
Bakugo : *irritated* There's no way it'll be good! It's that, right? Some empty promise to let students from other courses to blow off some steam? For the cause of that stress to do that— if that's not self-satisfaction, then what is? There's no way they'd take that quietly from people they're mad at!
Hagakure : Hey, you don't have to say it like that!
Bakugo : That's exactly what I'm talking about!
Iida : But... It's true that we may not have been considerate enough...
Todoroki : You didn't participate in the discussion, so don't complain about it now.
Bakugo : Doesn't that make you mad? It's not like we wanted to be messed around with by the villains. Why do we have to think about how they feel? If you guys are doing this to make them feel better, then stop right now! We've gotta hit 'em! We're not here to make friends, we're here to fight! If we're gonna do this, we've gotta be serious— Let's kill everyone in U.A. with our sound!
After hearing Bakugo's speech, everyone's perspective of the performance changes as they cheer Bakugo's name in joy.
Everyone : Bakugo!
Hagakure : Your reasoning is scary, but you'll do it?
Bakugo : This is serious!
Ashido : Got it, super serious!
Kaminari : You're not being honest with yourself!
Bakugo : I'm always serious.
Todoroki : I see.
Hagakure : *hugs Jiro* Isn't this great, Jiro?
Jiro : Yeah. I'll do my best.
=========================================================================================
It was now night and in one of the cities, they were two people standing on top of a building. One of them was a short woman with long red hair holding a video camera and the other was a tall man with grey hair.
??? : Hey, Gentle, will you tell me now? What'll we do for the next plan?
Gentle : In a month if it's the same as past years, then there will be a school festival. The school has already been attacked and has reinforced their security. At that school that is a symbol of heroes today.
??? : By "that school," could you mean...?
Gentle : *laughs* If I show that I can sneak in there, then I'm sure it'll become... a big deal.
=========================================================================================
Back at the Class 1-A dorm, they continued to talk about their performance and the parts each student would take part in.
Yaoyorozu : As part of my education, I studied the piano from a young age. Will that be of any help?
Ashido : Then Yao-momo, you'll be on keyboards!
Jiro : We've gotta have a synth for club music. Yao-momo, it'll be a big help!
Yaoyorozu : I will do my best!
Ashido : I was gonna have a girls dance group with all the girls... but you'll be cute, so it's fine!
Jiro : I'll play bass, so we just need guitars and vocals, then.
Ojiro : So everyone else will be in the dance?
Iida : Yeah. But will that be enough to fire everyone up?
Todoroki : In that video with the dance—
Ashido : We've gotta put in some effects!
Todoroki : That.
Sero : *confused* Effects?
Ashido goes over to the computer and searches for a video about what she was talking about and shows everyone else a video about a band that was performing with stunning visual effects.
Ashido : For example, like this. See how they use sparks and streamers and that disco ball to fire everyone up? Effects are there to set the mood!
Hagakure : Ooh, let's make it like the parades at the happiest place on earth!
Ashido : We can do it like that with everyone participating!
Ojiro : We're using the gym for this, right?
Iida : Yes, Mr. Aizawa has already made the arrangements.
Ashido : Then, what if, what if— Uraraka makes Todoroki and Kirishima float, and then Kirishima scrapes at Todoroki's ice to chip away at it! Then Aoyama can be a disco ball... and it'll look like light's twinkling down like stardust! I call it "Team Snowmen"!
Mineta : *laughs* A human shaved-ice machine!
Kaminari : It's like the teaming up we were talking about before!
Aoyama : I'm a disco ball...? That's not bad!
Yaoyorozu : The gym will look spectacular.
Iida : Yes, I think it's a great idea!
Hagakure : In that case, we need people working behind the scenes for the effects, huh?
Kirishima : Hey.
Everyone looks over to where the voice came from and sees that the work study group returned to the dorm from their extra classes.
Midoriya : Sorry, we're late.
Uraraka : We've finally made up all our classes. We can help out for real now!
Tsuyu : Ribbit!
Rex : So, what are you doing for the performance?
The rest of Class A then explains to the work study students everything they discussed so far about the performance and about who would be doing what.
Tsuyu : I see. We've decided on new rave type club rock for the music, huh?
Kirishima : I understand Jiro on bass and Yaoyorozu on keyboards...
Uraraka : But Bakugo on drums is kind of... how do I put it...?
Hagakure : Unexpected!
Bakugo : You got a problem with that?!
The three only shake their heads no.
Tsuyu : So, who will sing the all-important vocals?
Jiro : Well, we haven't decided yet...
Rex : Huh? You're not going to sing, Jiro?
Jiro : Huh?!
Mineta : If it's vocals you want, I can do it! It'll make me popular!
Aoyama : I can be a disco ball and sing!
Kirishima : Yeah! I can't play any instruments, but I'm a pretty good singer!
Kirishima then grabs a microphone and starts to sing into it for everyone to hear.
Kirishima : ♪ Man of the ship ♪ ♪ You, go get that ♪
Rex : Not the genre we're looking for...
Mineta takes the microphone from Kirishima and starts to sing, but he was only screaming into it.
Rex : You're just yelling, aren't you?
Next was Aoyama who was singing but in just a higher pitch than his normal voice.
Rex : Falsetto?
Hagakure : I'm with Rex. I think it should be you, Jiro! When you were teaching us in your room, your singing was super cool, too!
Jiro : Hey, don't make this harder by making people expect—
Rex : It's fine, it's fine.
Rex then grabs a microphone and walks over to Jiro as he drops it into her hands while Kirishima and Mineta were crouching on the ground, as they were waiting to hear Jiro's singing voice.
Mineta : You're just gonna disregard the shouts of our souls? Just how good is she, huh? Huh?
Rex then chops Mineta on the head to make him quiet down.
Rex : Quiet down and just listen. Just wait, her voice is really amazing.
Jiro slightly blushes from Rex's comment as she musters up her courage and holds the microphone up as she gets ready to sing.
Kirishima : I wanna hear your singing Jiro,! Sing something for us!
Jiro closes her eyes and takes a deep breath before she starts to sing...
Jiro stops singing and looks up at her friends waiting to see what their reaction would be. The Class A students were all amazed by her singing voice and started to cheer while Mineta, Kirishima, and Aoyama were laying on the ground, defeated.
Kirishima : I wanna hear your singing Jiro,! Sing something for us!
Ashido : What a husky, sexy voice!
Rex : Right? Right?
Iida : All right! It's unanimous, then!
Jiro : *slightly embarrassed* Then let's leave that aside... So we still need guitars!
Kaminari : Yay! I wanna do it! It's so cool to be able to play an instrument!
Mineta : Let me do it!
Kirishima : I feel like I'd cut the string.
Bakugo : It's not "I wanna do it"! Are you gonna kill it?
Kaminari : Yeah, yeah, I totally will! The guitar is the star of the band!
Kaminari and Mineta go over to where the guitars were as Kaminari starts to play it without a problem, however, Mineta wasn't able to play as he couldn't reach the strings. He puts the guitar down and starts to run away with tears in his eyes.
Mineta : Because of my character design, my hands won't reach!
Ojiro : I want to dance! I can move pretty well with my tail.
Sero : I want to work on effects with my Tape!
Rex : I did always want to be a musician when I was a kid.
Uraraka : Really?
Hagakure : Then that settles it! Rex will be our second guitarist!
Rex : Uh, sorry, but I can't play an actual instrument. *slightly embarrassed* Besides, I don't think the accordion is what this performance needs...
Suddenly, an idea pops into Rex's head as he realizes the important part that he could play during the festival.
Rex : How about I be a part of the dance and effects team?
Tsuyu : Ribbit?
Rex : I'm not really that great of a dancer, but I'm pretty sure my machines can put on a show if they need to.
Rex creates the Omega Gauntlets and shoots the lasers into the air which spell out his name in a flashy way, amazing everyone.
Ashido : Hey, hey, Rex is right! His builds can definitely fire the crowd up! And he doubles as special effects!
Jiro : All right. If it'll make the performance better, then we'll have to go with it. *turns to Rex* Are you up for it?
Rex : Yep. But we're gonna need someone to play guitar—
Suddenly, Rex was caught off by someone playing the guitar really well as he looks over and sees that the person playing was Tokoyami.
Kirishima : What a heartrending sound!
Shoji : You can play? Why didn't you say anything?
Tokoyami : I quit once at the F chord. Mineta if you are giving up on the guitar, then I will strum for you and Rex as well.
Mineta reacts to this by curling up into a ball on the floor while having a dark aura around him.
Mineta : Do what you want, damn it. This is stupid. Stupid. Let's get this stupid festival over with. I hope you all break a nail.
Ashido : Mineta! If I make a harem part for you in the dance, will you do it?
Mineta : I will. Can't the school festival come any sooner!
With that said, the Class A students stayed up until 1 a.m. as they decided everyone's roles.
Iida : All right! Everyone's roles have been decided!
Iida : The band team...
Iida : The effects team...
Iida : The dance team... Everyone, we'll be busy starting tomorrow!
Everyone : Yeah!
===================================================================================
[ Time Skip ]
It was Saturday, and outside of the entrance of U.A. High School, Mirio and Aizawa had returned from the hospital after picking a very special someone up.
Mirio : Okay, we're here! It's okay! Everyone's nice here!
Mirio turns around to the person that he and Aizawa picked up who was none other than the one and only, Eri.
Mirio : Welcome to U.A. High School!
========================================================================================
Meanwhile at the Class A dorm, since Bakugo and Todoroki didn't have supplementary classes today, each team was practicing in the afternoon for the upcoming day. With no time to waste and the song decided, the band team started to practice.
Jiro : We just have to single-mindedly...
Bakugo : ... practice to kill!
Over with the effects team, they were all going over ideas and talking about what effects to use for the performance while also suggesting new ones to use.
Sero : I see that's a great idea! Let's talk to the dance team about it!
Kirishima : Wait, but that means we don't have enough people.
While the band and effect teams were working inside, meanwhile on the outside, the dance team were outside practicing while being coached by Ashido.
Ashido : Midoriya, that's wrong! Put more muscle into it! The "lock" in locking is spelled L-O-C-K! So do it like you're turning a lock...
Ashido then performs a simple dance move and then locks her position.
Ashido : ...and stop it with a snap!
The students then listen to Ashido's advice and try to do the same.
Everyone : Snap!
In a nearby bush, Mirio was watching the dance team practice while planning to surprise them.
Mirio : Looks like no one has noticed yet... Let's see, I'll make my appearance with a joke and grab a laugh...
However, he was quickly noticed by Midoriya who saw that he was hiding behind the bush and ruining his plan.
Midoriya : *waving* Oh, Togata!
Midoriya, Tsuyu, Rex, and Uraraka then see someone they didn't expect while Mirio goes through with his plan even though it had failed.
Rex, Midoriya, Tsuyu, Uraraka : Eri!
Mirio : Here's a peach!
The four then run over to Eri as they were happy to see the little girl while their classmates follow behind them.
Midoriya : Eri!
Rex : I didn't expect to see you so soon. You came all the way here?
Ojiro : *surprised* What? Who's this? Your daughter, Togata?
Tsuyu : What lovely clothes.
Uraraka : S-S-So cute!
Aizawa : Salazar, Midoriya, the principal has given permission.
Aizawa then explains to Midoriya and Rex that Principal Nezu thought it would be a better idea to come to the school before the festival began since being thrusted into the school festival might be too much for her. Mirio then comes out of the bush and brushes the leaves off of him.
Iida : Eri... I see, you're from the work study! I'm Iida! Nice to meet you!
Mineta : I'm Mineta! I can't wait to see how you look in ten years.
Rex grabs Mineta by the back of his shirt and throws him to the side.
Rex : Ignore him.
Eri hides behind Mirio shyly as she was a bit overwhelmed by all the students coming up to her at once.
Mirio : She's kind of shy, right?
Iida : Shy, huh?
Mirio : So, I wanted to take Eri around U.A. Salzar, Midoriya, do you want to come too?
Midoriya : Yes!
Rex : Sure.
Suddenly, everyone hears the front door of the dorm open and hear Kirishima who was calling out to the dance team.
Kirishima : Hey, dance team! We wanted to talk about— Oh, it's Eri!
Kirishima then runs over to Eri happily.
Kirishima : Hey there! Wait, you don't know who I am, huh?
Ashido : Then, why don't we take a break? Let's have teatime!
The dance team then decides to take a break while Rex and Midoriya change into their uniforms so they could walk around the school with Mirio and Eri.
