It's now one month before the school festival and everyone at U.A is preparing for the day to show off their class event, while during this Izuku with Mirio they took Eri around the school to see school grounds before the culture festival started, but after hearing about the beauty pageant Mirio decided to bring Izuku and Eri to meet the girl of the group of the Big 3 as she was in a beautiful blue dress, this sight made Izuku blush and with Eri catching this, she asked Nejire something Shinsou told her to ask for any girl that makes Izuku blush, that was to be her mama, this just make Izuku more red and nervous.
"S-Sorry, Shinsou must have told her to say those things, she doesn't know better, s-so don't take her seriously" said Izuku red.
"That cruel, I would die if Eri said all those things to me and girl" said Tamaki as he shivered at the thought of that.
"It's alright I don't mind after all it's only pretending right, there nothing wrong with that" said Nejire.
"She's right we're only pretending so Hado if you're mama, then me and Tamaki our Eri's uncle since we're like your brothers, isn't that right Tamaki" said Mirio.
"Please Mirio, that's way too much, I can't be an uncle, it's too much pressure" said Tamaki.
Izuku could only look at them for not realizing Eri was asking Nejire to be mama for real, if Shinsou didn't say pretend, this was when he felt a tap on his shoulder to see Nejire's friend.
"Hey don't worry about it, if they aren't taking it seriously then it's a good thing cause I don't think Hado can handle being an actual mom, I think a pretend one suits her better" said ???.
"Hey Yuyu, that was mean of you" said Nejire puffy face.
"Sorry but you're not ready to take care of kids, well not yet" said Yuyu.
"Yes I can, I'll prove it, Midoriya I'm gonna come over when we both have free time so we can take care of Eri as her parents, cause I would make a great mama" said Nejire with a determined look to prove Yuyu wrong.
"Um, I think we should go before she starts now, if not she might lose 1st place again if she tries to prove Yuyu wrong" said Mirio.
"Yeah my bad" said Yuyu.
With that they quickly left the changing room and started to roam around wondering where to go to next, but as they were walking they accidentally bumped into someone and that someone was Pony from class B, this made the notebook she was holding drop as some loose pages she put in her notebook slid out.
"My bad, I'm really sorry Pony" said Izuku As he helped pick up the paper.
"No it's fine Midoriya, it's also my bad I wasn't paying attention where I was going" said Pony but with a better Japanese accent and she picked up the paper too.
"Pony, I see that your Japanese getting better" said Izuku.
"Yeah thanks to you, I probably would have learned from Monoma if you weren't around, but I'm glad you're around if not Monoma would have taught me rude things to say to class A" said Pony.
"Yeah" said Izuku.
But as they were picking up the paper Eri picked one up and looked at it as she brought it to Izuku.
"Papa is that you" said Eri.
"Eh, what do you mean?" said Izuku as he blushed a bit because of being called papa.
"This paper has a drawing of you in a costume that's all black" said Eri as she showed Izuku the drawing on the paper.
And to Izuku's surprise the drawing was actually of him for the fact it had his face, hair and the freckles, also with the color on it making the hair look exactly like his hair color, but the main noticeable thing was the outfit the drawing was were looked like the same costume he saw before from Sora The Sea Warrior, but it wasn't of the protagonist but of one of the evil army elite warrior and the last general revealed, Stealth Black complete with shades.
"What the?" said Izuku.
But without hesitation Pony pulled the paper out of Eri hand as she grabbed all the papers and ran away completely red as she spoke quickly.
"Seeyoulatermidoriya" said Pony completely red.
With that she was gone as Izuku and the rest were left all sorts of confused.
"That was weird" said Izuku.
"Let's get going, we still have a lot of ground to cover" said Mirio.
With that all three of them who any real thought headed to the support course in the development studio.
"Next we'll show you the support course" said Mirio.
With that they entered in the room filled with support course students working on their support gadgets to show off during the culture festival.
"All the grades are working together to put on an extra awesome exhibition of their work" said Mirio covering his ears.
"I can't wait to see, I heard that it's the highlight every year" said Izuku excitedly.
But out of nowhere someone popped up behind him.
"Yes, the culture festival is the support course time to shine" said Mei.
This caught Izuku off guard.
"Mei!, woah" said Izuku.
But this was when Izuku noticed the giant robotic suit behind her.
"I see that you notice, that's my super cute baby No. 202" said Mei excitedly.
"I think you might have grease on you" said Izuku nervously smiling.
"Heh, I'm filthy but I can't waste time bathing" said Mei.
"That dedication" said Mirio.
"Even though we showed off some items at the sports festival we took a back seat to the hero, but time the contraptions we come up with will be given the spotlight they deserve, which means lots of big companies and buyers can get up and personal with my work, I need to make sure they're perfect so they don't embarrass me, oh muscles how did the iron sols work out for you by the way cause if you need improvement or any else you need you know your my first priority" said Mei.
"You don't have to, they're working just fine but thank you" said Izuku.
But then suddenly smoke came from Mei baby.
"Oh no my baby" said Mei as she ran towards her baby.
This made Izuku try and grab her wrist.
"Wait Mei don't" said Izuku.
But the explosion caught both of them and smoke covered the room.
"Hatsume not again" said the support course student.
But in the smoke Izuku could only think about every explosion he's been in.
'Not gonna lie ever since I've met Hatsume I've been in more explosions in this room than I've actually been on the battlefield, I have to get up' Izuku thought.
Then as he was getting up he hit something and something soft pressed against Izuku, but some cleared and Izuku saw what his lips was pressing against and it was Mei's own lips seeing that Izuku got red and quickly got up.
"Midoriya is everything alright" said Mirio.
Luckily not enough smoke cleared so only Izuku and Mei were the only ones to see what happened, but without warning Izuku ran towards Mirio and Eri as he quickly dragged them out.
"We should go!" said Izuku all red.
"Woah what's the matter Midoriya, why are you in such a rush?" said Mirio.
"We should show Eri some of the other exhibitions, also we don't want to be caught in another explosion right, hahahaha" said Izuku still red.
Meanwhile back at the development studio.
"Hatsume what is wrong with yo-" said support course student.
But he stopped as he saw an embarrassed and blushing Mei touching her lips, for the first time Mei made all the support course students blush as the crazy girl they knew was acting like a cute embarrassed girl and not her usual self.
'I don't know, but was that what people call a kiss, they were soft' Mei thought as she blushed more.
As the events that transpire Izuku and the others soon explore all of U.A with Eri and now are at the cafeteria taking a break to eat.
"Welp that all of U.A" said Mirio.
"That's right, so what do you think now that you officially have seen everything" said Izuku.
"I'm not sure" said Eri.
Izuku and Mirio could only sigh and laugh nervously.
"But I can see how hard everyone is working on the festival and I do want to see how it turns out" said Eri.
This only made Izuku and Mirio smile at the progress.
"It sounds like Miss Eri is getting excited" said Nezu.
As he was a couple of tables over with Midnight as he was eating cheese quickly.
"Principal Nezu, miss Midnight hello" said Izuku.
"I think we made the right choice, I know I'm excited for everything too, I love seeing so many students joining together and having fun all in the hopes that their peers have a good time" said Nezu.
"Now if only we can get the police to understand" said Midnight.
"Now, now Kayama, don't forget we actually had help on our side this time and it was really powerful too" said Nezu.
This was when Nezu took his leave, Midnight then spoke as he was out of sight.
"I'll spare you all the gory details, but the principal fought hard for you and we were lucky enough to help from powerful man whose words stands above all, still as a result security will be higher than in past years, just know if an alarm goes off even if it's a false one we'll have to shut down and evacuate, those were the terms that the big man agree from police' said Midnight.
"That's strict" said Izuku.
"Of course to keep that from happening we're also beefing up our defensive measure, we even let hound dog off his leash to patrol" said Midnight.
"You did" said Izuku.
"Oh yes did you know class A performance is causing quite the stir in the faculty luggage, you better make it pleasurable" said Midnight as she winked and walked away.
"Right" said Izuku.
"Papa, what performance" said Eri.
"Um, we're doing big live concert I'm on the back stage, I'll be helping making my classmates shine and I have something in the works that everyone will love when I show it up trust me and look up you'll see me and make everyone smile and especially you, so please come watch, also you can call me Izuku or Deku alright Eri, either I should get back I have to prepare for my surprise, sorry Mirio but you don't mind watching Eri do you" said Izuku.
"Not at all, I'm also excited for your special surprise" said Mirio.
"Alright I'll see you later Eri" said Izuku as he was walking out.
But before Izuku was fully gone Eri said something that caused Izuku to nearly fall.
"Good luck papa" said Eri.
'Shinsou, why did you tell her to call me that, it's just too much' Izuku thought as he blushed a bit and nearly tripped.
But Izuku continued on as he trained in the deep woods near U.A as he put on his ring on that was still level 1, as Izuku couldn't help as he was breathing slightly uneasy for how much ki he was releasing.
"Huhuhuh, damn this takes a lot of work especially since this is only level 1 and I can only make 10 of these guys" said Izuku as he looked at the living fire balls.
"Sputter, sputter, sputter, sputter!" said the fireballs happily.
'At this point I think I should call them sputter on the count that it's the only thing they can say, either way I can easily make 10 sputters without the ring but it gives me real sweat with it' Izuku thought as he wiped the sweat from his head.
But he began to think of the benefits of the Ki ring training.
'But it's increasing my ki quicker than if I trained without it and I feel a lot more energy, but maybe I should try and train for something else beside the sputter, I think I'll train for a special new attack' Izuku thought as he took off the ring.
But Izuku couldn't help but think about everyone's hard work and his that they're putting into the concert and Eri seeing it, Izuku couldn't help but be excited.
"This gonna rock" said Izuku as he stuck his hands out in a rock n roll sign.
But suddenly his flames suddenly from his legs blast him up, but instead high into the sky but only above the trees as Izuku fell on his ass, but when he came back down he saw instead just a burn mark, the force from those flames dig deep into the ground.
"I think I found my new special attack" said Izuku excitedly.
But soon enough he returned to the dorms with everyone else, but not before getting Eri back.
"Your rushing bastard, follow my tempo" said Katsumi.
"But you keep throwing in new breakdowns, it's so confusing" said Kaminari.
While Kaminari was only complaining about Katsumi, Momo was serving tea as she gave Jiro compliments.
"Jiro it's almost like you were born to teach,for a beginner like Kaminari to be able to learn cord progression in just a week is impressive" said Momo.
"It's okay I guess, anyway today's tea smells really good" said Jiro.
"I'm glad you noticed, mother sent me this rare type that can be impossible to find,it's a tea called gold tips imperial, oh everyone please enjoy a cup if you like" said Momo.
But Izuku wasn't paying attention as he was looking for videos he could take ideas from to make his sputters take the show to the next level but as he was looking he accidentally misclicked on a video.
"I didn't mean to play that" said Izuku.
But then took deeper notice as it was Gentle Criminal.
'Gentle Criminal is a villain that causes trouble and records it, it's still nuts that no one caught him even though he's been uploading for years, I wonder what he's planning next' Izuku thought.
Meanwhile as Izuku was thinking what Gentle was planning next, Gentle was planning out his next video for U.A.
"Ugh" said Gentle.
"Poor Gentle you've been working so hard you skip tea breaks for a week, are you alright?" said La Brava.
"Yes" said Gentle Criminal.
But La Brava quickly went out of the room and grabbed him tea.
"La Brava recently heroes began to fall out of favor with the public, there feckless action has breed distrust from the masses it's obvious these so called do gooders are ill prepared for complications, they don't seem to comprehend the crisis they're in, if they did they wouldn't dream on put on festival during these most horrendous of times" said Gentle criminal.
This was when La Brava returned as she placed down the tea right next to Gentle.
"Yeah, but Gentle I don't know how I feel about involving these innocent children in all of this, you know" said La Brava.
"Hahahaha, my dear this scheme of mine is merely a wake up call, following my masterful plan will encourage the future heroes to grow stronger" said Gentle criminal.
"Your plan is going to inspire youthful lives, you're so cool Gentle" said La Brava as she fell on her back.
"Now let us go over the route we will take to invade, now open the criminal folder" said Gentle.
But as he tried to open up the folder to the plan on his laptop it would open.
"It won't open" said Gentle.
"Oh sorry I locked it for protection, just right click there" said La Brava.
With that Gentle began to explain the plan.
"This path has the fewest number of hero agencies and the least traffic, at five o'clock of the morning of, for the side road here" said Gentle.
"Why not just use your quirk instead?" said La Brava.
"It would be unwise given there hero who patrol the skies, after a jont we'll stroll through a lovely park, once we're through the other side we'll almost be there, if we move carefully to avoid drawing attention it should take 60 to 65 of minutes at the most and then, I'm delighted about this part you see this old house standing in the shadow of a hardware store" said Gentle.
"Yes" said La Brava.
"It's actually a charming cafe" said Gentle.
"You're not going to have tea outside like usual, that's risky" said La Brava.
"The owner is passing seventy and is barely managing to keep his business open, it's a shame no one notice anything more than an old home and there are only 5 to 6 regulars, but La Brava there is no question I must drink there because this cafe carriers the most lotted of tea leaves the illusive gold tips imperial, don't you think it's fitting for the grand caper we're about to pull off" said Gentle as he winked at La Brava.
"Of course" said La Brava.
"And because of the owner's advance age it opens early at 7am, we can enjoy 90 minutes of tea time if we get there when the doors open" said Gentle.
"This is way more research than you usually do" said La Brava.
"After that we go back to the side streets and pass the construction site where we find a slight sloping mountain surrounded by forest, once we climb that we'll arrive at U.A, most likely we'll have to deal with hound dog, who excels at sniffing out intruders, once we get into the forest we must rub dirt and leaves over our bodies to hide our scent from the mongrel and as for the school, there is a censor security system called the U.A barrier which nih impenetrable and covers the entirety of the campus" said Gentle.
"And that's where my job comes in right Gentle, I'll infiltrate the U.A internal network and secretly disable the censors, because not to brag but I'm a highly skilled master hacker" said La Brava.
"I truly have the most wonderful partner imaginable, my dear I am forever grateful to have you at my side" said Gentle.
"Oh stop Gentle anything you need, you know I love you" said La Brava spinning around in a circle.
But then Gentle stopped her as he spoke to her.
"La Brava, I do mean it, when I first began I learn how to upload my video but technology often elides alas there were few views and the rare comments I did get were harsh, that doorbell signal the end of my melancon days, it was you my first admirer to be honest I had my misgivings, I was terrified I was being to careless but then when we began plotting, recording and editing as one the views on my videos began to increase" said Gentle.
Everything Gentle said brought tears to La Brava's eyes.
"La Brava, I am betting my soul and my prized mustache on this audacious scheme for the world, for society, for my courageous dream and to honor the feelings you have for me" said Gentle.
This made La Brava couldn't hold anymore as she dove at Gentle with tears in her eyes hugging him
"Gentle" said La Brava.
"My La Brava" said Gentle.
"Oh I love you my Gentle Criminal" said La Brava.
"I love you too my darling girl, I'll make certain nothing stops me, no matter what we will succeed" said Gentle.
And the both on the ground and La Brava on top of Gentle the day of their scheme was only one month away, but unknown to them a student will get stronger and will get in their way.
