Things were looking dire. Momo was the last one standing, and she still had so much to do. Save three civilians, beat two villains, and disarm a bomb.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sUGEv4VYJ
Considering the fact she hears no explosions and Kiri went with Midoriya; that leaves only one person capable enough to defend the bomb.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryQED6StSg
Momo: “Shouto Todoroki… ”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAd9UiI2dlh
The other person who got in through recommendations, but unlike her, he didn’t reject it.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOk9ATNIE4
Considering his quirk, he could have easily gotten in without it.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJu2VceaYu
He seems like an impossible obstacle.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnzukqjluD
Momo: ‘What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCwqo8svB6
Shoji: “Yaoyorozu.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkVip3q4ix
Momo: “Huh!!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5kobF0PBP
While Momo was stuck in a panic loop on her bike, Shoji somehow sneaked up on her.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtOW1YWfMW
Momo: “I-I’m sorry, civilian. I’ll help you get back to the safe zone; get on.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrAOBHRecQ
Shoji: “Appreciated. But before that, I have some information regarding the other civilians.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQokz27Tk2
Momo: “Really?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pqjrfr2f3
Shoji, thanks to his quirk’s excellent sensory abilities, gave Momo a good sense of where the last civilians were. But that wasn’t all.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkzcixwhz9
Shoji: “We should hurry; I can hear Ida quickly covering the city. He’ll eventually catch up to the last civilians.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcU8unav9H3
Momo: “R-Right! Thank you.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeYNJbKxBT
With that, Shoji got on the bike. It did require Momo to change the bike to accommodate Shoji’s size. But it only required a few moments.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vDTmo1KMc
Momo: ‘One step at a time. That’s all that matters right now. One step. I can win this.’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsdxonnc48
The next second, they were off.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnf4TT0UmV
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EYcu6pew6
Jiro: “You really need to learn how to shorten this silly spell.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3gumfZLXI
Denki: “Sowru.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr3XZFhVEu
If Denki wanted to be a hero, he knew he had to shorten this stupid state or find a new way of using his quirk. Thanks to some training and hours of brain rot, he shortened it down to 30 minutes.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44mqNX36hl
Still too long to help right now. So Jiro is stuck dragging him through the city, slowly.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DSfRB9ty5
Jiro: “At least it’s not raining rubble anymore.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡism2k6ggM9
She takes a break and leans against a nearby wall. Every few minutes, Jiro would place her ear jacks into the ground to see if anyone was close.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6lbdLrKaG
After a few moments, her eyes widen.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgGyt01TYd
Jiro: “Shoot!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCSEzq5TD8
The rapid steps and the sound of engines could only be one person. Thinking fast, Jiro went deeper into the alley and sat Denki down.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRCDKvWrvD
Denki: “Hvh?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjCQOrZlHd
Jiro: “Don’t make a sound.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXqTVucSqs
Denki: “I cwm teka Iad, lat mv… at hum.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmhqkJ5FbC
Jiro hits Denki over the head with one of her ears.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhhx1Tsx4L
Jiro: “No, you can’t, idiot. Now be good and stay put.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ1LxdK3Fd
Before Denki could say more, Jiro ran out of the alley and unleashed another sound wave from her boot amplifiers.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfhjz2w6PB
Jiro: ‘I hope I’ll run into a hero before Ida gets me.’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziMtccV4Jv
With that in mind, she ran away from the approaching engines.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVXLVujmLU
She did the best she could, but Jiro was still not that athletic when compared to others.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPWyxO5w0H
So she turned around to face the music. Coming down the street like a rocket was Ida.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHbQLVstdw
Ida: “Give up now! You can’t beat us villains! Hahaha!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEcIctzYQP
Jiro: “Last time I checked, you’re not faster than sound.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G2cpYJJ2N
She unleashed another sound wave that engulfed Ida. But unlike Mina, he has a helmet. Doesn’t completely block out the sound, but he can endure it long enough to catch Jiro.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDJN4iODAo
Jiro: “Tch!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSisfBZxQz
She stops the sound attack and attempts to dodge to the side. But it’s much too late.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKSQsNLYoJ
Ida: “Got you.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFHAo9kXNU
But before Ida can grab Jiro, a bright light erupts above their heads. A flash grenade!
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ418UallRSx
Ida: “Ugh!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGRjlhKLQz
Thanks to that flash, Jiro was able to narrowly avoid being captured. But still, she’s just as blind.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn5xJJDT0r
But thanks to a warm hand, she was brought further into safety.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fJgiDqqyB
Momo: “Jiro, are you alright?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI5UeHJhqn
Jiro: “My eyes hurt, but I’m fine. Thanks.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi7jeU7L4s
Momo: “Now take my bike and get to the safety zone. I’ll deal with Ida.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X7WD0WJ4l
Jiro: “A-Are you sure?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPhiBFf0sC
Momo: “Yes, fighting villains is a hero’s job. Now go.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92zDHz9wdw
Not needing to be told twice, Jiro nods and gets on the bike. Thank God she took basic lessons when she was younger.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqxqR03laR
Jiro: ‘I might as well get Kaminari too.’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DRDfZKX0r
Ida lost his balance due to the sudden flash and fell. But he quickly recovered and turned around to see Jiro leaving and Momo with a shield. It was a strange shield, one with several holes.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxF0aYluPF
Ida: “Impressive hero, but do you really think you can stop me?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuXT683p3f
Momo: “Yes.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡji9LwWY08b
Ida: “Haha, then impress me, hero!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIidAzNJIh5
With his impressive speed, Ida nearly teleported in front of Momo. Already, his foot was coming down to crush the shield.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZf103w4Nn
But as soon as he touched it, he heard a click.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZQDeUXhHZ
Momo: “Checkmate.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw10HL6QldK
A burst of sticky goo exploded out of the shield and covered Ida before quickly hardening.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqhf5c5CGD
Ida fell to the ground, stuck and still as a statue.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8xFbYgk2P
Ida: “What?!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMTFiGyoRZ
Momo: “This was the only way I could possibly beat you. If you weren’t eager to fight heroes, you could have sped past me and captured the civilians.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzI0r30iHa
Momo: “Or you could have attempted a back attack. But I predicted you would attack me head-on. You are pretty straightforward after all.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw36q7dwKOZ
Ida: “Indeed, you bring up excellent points, Yaoyorozu. I will reflect on this defeat!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasBOUMqSII
Momo nods before reabsorbing the shield. Still, losing the bike was a big blow to her reserves.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2618jkMCg
Momo: ‘Will I have enough for my biggest challenge?’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYUiqUZjsa
After a moment to think of her strategy, she sighed.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31n1bhDmJu
Momo: ‘It will have to be.’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY7tB5OI3D
It was time for a full frontal assault, plus ultra.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmObVlEdWC
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUHBZ7HMjO
It didn’t take long to get Kaminari to the safety zone. Good thing too, Jiro couldn’t refill the gas like Momo could.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhgIMhn7U4
So when they finally arrived, it was out of gas. Jiro helped Kaminari off the bike and started walking. But first, she took a glance back at the bike, a question popping into her head.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasLrYmboFU
Jiro: ‘How long do her creations last?’
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0Hc4T31Lq
Before the implications of that question reveal themselves, the girl felt a sudden gust of wind.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3cj3BmgYn
All Might: “Congratulations on making it to safety. Come, join the rest of your class in the viewing area.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Vf7eCoGWK
Jiro: “Viewing area?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1VzEJ0w63
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvj5A6GR7Y
All Might led Jiro, who was still helping Denki, to the viewing area. It was a small dark room with several cameras showing the city.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThCco0PgmI
Within were the other students minus Kiri, Izuku, Bakugo and Kirishima. Those four were all in the nurse’s office.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLm5xtKHa4S
Mina: “Jiro! You made it. You did great saving Kaminari and standing up to Ida!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjHZD4vM2a
Jiro: “Thanks.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNJpTbk8y2
Jiro helps Denki into one of the several seats available.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwG0MCAogq5
Jiro: “What’s with them?”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Aw4s6g0ZB
She points to Sero and Uraraka who were sulking in the corner.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrWecb3JKK
Mina: “Losing to Shouto really got to them.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnnqUNnPHB
Sero: “Sorry.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9Zw1ovDjL
Uraraka: “We should’ve done better.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjCUYt6hOP
Jiro: “You were up against that guy after all.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoO6WIBVZLH
Mina: “Yeah, and now Yaomomo has to face him.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZLlPqb9js
Jiro looks at the screen, more specifically Momo. She smiled at the sight.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KLXp1XGA9
Jiro: “For some reason, I think she’ll be fine.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7wUjxSZmc
Mina: “Whoa, she’s going all out.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35vx0734gE
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe7lTORIk4
He could feel it; it was time.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4niFak6IO
He got up and waited for the first move to be made. Didn’t take long.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ683n1ezhjr
Several military-grade drones appeared outside the windows and started firing something. Shouto quickly sent pillars of ice at them, destroying the distractions. But some did succeed in deploying their payload, smoke bombs.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIT7HTd3Uk
Understanding the strategy, he stomped the ground, covering the floor with ice. If that doesn’t get her, he’ll just focus on any sound she’ll make.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGWDKaV8st
The smoke, however, is making it hard to focus. Regardless, Shouto isn’t like everyone else. The slight sound of crunching ice signaled Momo’s location.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjT5EF9UpDN
Turning sharply, he unleashed a wave of ice. Whatever was there was frozen solid. But she did get a shot off. Suddenly, Shouto felt a net slam into him.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN2ATQ6CGy
It was strong enough to knock him off his feet and stick him to a pillar. But he wasn’t the only one stuck.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFflTqimIBj
The smoke cleared to show a skinnier-than-usual Momo. Her left foot, and most of the leg, was frozen and stuck on the ground. The only reason she wasn’t frozen all the way was because she hid behind a pillar just in time.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMzH8tTn76
But this won’t stop her; she had a heating device. She’s going to escape and get that bomb. It’s the only way to win. Beating Shouto is not an option.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMTTKQp3VY
Shouto though won’t let that happen. He quickly regulated his temperature so he could freeze the net without freezing himself.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOg9F6SKWC
For a tense few seconds, the two stared at each other. Whoever escapes first wins.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWRjDGtp2t
As luck would have it, Momo was first. Now free, she dashed towards the bomb. But Shouto was close behind. He shattered the net and prepared to fire another wave of ice. In his desperation for victory, this one was larger than before.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjXuLTe4Fj
Momo’s fingers were inches away from the bomb before her world went a solid blue.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDHf8vSdga
So close, yet so far.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhWASapt6R
Shouto breathed out a chilly sigh. The whole area was a frozen wasteland; even he was cold. He couldn’t imagine how cold his classmate must be, especially in that outfit.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiXSOLVztl
Yet despite those risks, she challenged him. Despite losing to him, he can respect that.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJvlGHDpWz
He places his hand on the ice encasing Mom and slowly melts it.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAl31guXpsU
Shouto: “You were impressive. Sorry, it had to end this way.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUqD7nPtfR
All Might: “Villain Team Win!”

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoJgalrIH3
Mina: “Ah man! That guy is way too strong!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MsbJ6rI1u
Tsuyu: “But Yaoyorozu did very well.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWD3PEQBmGA
Tokoyami: “Agreed, she fought admirably.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5y9kmuCoN
Sero: “Yeah, much better than us.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLxlY3yDpL
Uraraka: “Yeah… ”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmgaaeHVjp
All Might: “Don’t feel discouraged! You all did magnificently! Use this exercise to better prepare for the trials in the future!”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW50wLg2FKx
All Might: “Now I will help unthaw young Yaoyorozu. Afterward we will return to class for final reviews. That is if the other students are awake by then.”
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelRcXHXIma
Nodding, the class leaves the viewing area. As for Jiro, she gave one last look at the determined Momo. She may have lost, but her performance during this exercise was amazing.
8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0loYenMQn
Jiro: ‘I need to be better. I can’t fall behind.’
