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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHe5PjfN7DN
Considering the fact she hears no explosions and Kiri went with Midoriya; that leaves only one person capable enough to defend the bomb.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51ZHOc04o7
Momo: “Shouto Todoroki… ”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsapBAdEQRy
The other person who got in through recommendations, but unlike her, he didn’t reject it.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdYqZ0Hr5T
Considering his quirk, he could have easily gotten in without it.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqM1Mbj6Os
He seems like an impossible obstacle.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeKKsRzDsm
Momo: ‘What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU442YQ5xFK
Shoji: “Yaoyorozu.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8Lva3DQx9
Momo: “Huh!!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfevO04NFz
While Momo was stuck in a panic loop on her bike, Shoji somehow sneaked up on her.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEkm5GhcYT
Momo: “I-I’m sorry, civilian. I’ll help you get back to the safe zone; get on.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJrrXQzEWV
Shoji: “Appreciated. But before that, I have some information regarding the other civilians.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uJBiFL1tv
Momo: “Really?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkQKOmEkBL
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGQerNstHn
Shoji: “We should hurry; I can hear Ida quickly covering the city. He’ll eventually catch up to the last civilians.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6FKVx2AJi
Momo: “R-Right! Thank you.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjej6tf5DmE
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH53zpRZXET
Momo: ‘One step at a time. That’s all that matters right now. One step. I can win this.’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgeQpYqI3Q
The next second, they were off.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmeKITH1fK
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwrxNfwBmy
Jiro: “You really need to learn how to shorten this silly spell.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgDgcLPHru
Denki: “Sowru.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfelPGuQVq2
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFB5iZZzrU
Still too long to help right now. So Jiro is stuck dragging him through the city, slowly.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgK8JRrBvt
Jiro: “At least it’s not raining rubble anymore.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUB54RdeFS
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9C3suwmFu
After a few moments, her eyes widen.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VtZY9Tz9b
Jiro: “Shoot!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w5epqyv9j
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwdO4CqZJ6
Denki: “Hvh?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKpk2rTFz8
Jiro: “Don’t make a sound.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9MDNdIt4B
Denki: “I cwm teka Iad, lat mv… at hum.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSfysyCyLK
Jiro hits Denki over the head with one of her ears.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlBUGP1ArM
Jiro: “No, you can’t, idiot. Now be good and stay put.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE4jSvPOrb
Before Denki could say more, Jiro ran out of the alley and unleashed another sound wave from her boot amplifiers.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeHwp689T8
Jiro: ‘I hope I’ll run into a hero before Ida gets me.’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcTXp4QMHw
With that in mind, she ran away from the approaching engines.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtzXH41XiP
She did the best she could, but Jiro was still not that athletic when compared to others.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfpxymUEFU
So she turned around to face the music. Coming down the street like a rocket was Ida.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcAlZ0n1tK
Ida: “Give up now! You can’t beat us villains! Hahaha!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66LyUGGq2V
Jiro: “Last time I checked, you’re not faster than sound.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGbG8u8voL
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD27J6RU4Hp
Jiro: “Tch!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5vsZoFWe5
She stops the sound attack and attempts to dodge to the side. But it’s much too late.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtwbQoJzjN
Ida: “Got you.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvEM8Xy5Ah
But before Ida can grab Jiro, a bright light erupts above their heads. A flash grenade!
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKN5uvAowsQ
Ida: “Ugh!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimTeoJ6YGh
Thanks to that flash, Jiro was able to narrowly avoid being captured. But still, she’s just as blind.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcooPfsoPH
But thanks to a warm hand, she was brought further into safety.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bEaqDeqCG
Momo: “Jiro, are you alright?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26PfizHvHG
Jiro: “My eyes hurt, but I’m fine. Thanks.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JbaqXvN7R
Momo: “Now take my bike and get to the safety zone. I’ll deal with Ida.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsW3xQqjtL
Jiro: “A-Are you sure?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡputqSm6igb
Momo: “Yes, fighting villains is a hero’s job. Now go.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOyHGhm4tV
Not needing to be told twice, Jiro nods and gets on the bike. Thank God she took basic lessons when she was younger.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpj7XEFvmRp
Jiro: ‘I might as well get Kaminari too.’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1PjYjGUsr
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ818Ja30LlY
Ida: “Impressive hero, but do you really think you can stop me?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDch9CRAOqe
Momo: “Yes.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7JTr2UTRE
Ida: “Haha, then impress me, hero!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2nKKqm3Wk
With his impressive speed, Ida nearly teleported in front of Momo. Already, his foot was coming down to crush the shield.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXdRkyc4qM
But as soon as he touched it, he heard a click.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7zvdncKYh
Momo: “Checkmate.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0rhOBi3Ee
A burst of sticky goo exploded out of the shield and covered Ida before quickly hardening.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8Fymbovcu
Ida fell to the ground, stuck and still as a statue.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq481NdgQWY
Ida: “What?!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE3oChQBNG
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.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSHuDiFIii
Momo: “Or you could have attempted a back attack. But I predicted you would attack me head-on. You are pretty straightforward after all.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvQlBe0Ytl
Ida: “Indeed, you bring up excellent points, Yaoyorozu. I will reflect on this defeat!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwnGnrrZ0x
Momo nods before reabsorbing the shield. Still, losing the bike was a big blow to her reserves.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5NCdJco2W
Momo: ‘Will I have enough for my biggest challenge?’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV71xCmLj96
After a moment to think of her strategy, she sighed.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpQ04OIs4S
Momo: ‘It will have to be.’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCkP1NiOlu
It was time for a full frontal assault, plus ultra.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tqJ7VcUiU
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqI7ZKkDRl
It didn’t take long to get Kaminari to the safety zone. Good thing too, Jiro couldn’t refill the gas like Momo could.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43WOhvIiI9
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLWTLuTmDG
Jiro: ‘How long do her creations last?’
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0nSrqtYBz
Before the implications of that question reveal themselves, the girl felt a sudden gust of wind.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvkQMCmcSB
All Might: “Congratulations on making it to safety. Come, join the rest of your class in the viewing area.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2g58hx4MM
Jiro: “Viewing area?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn90dGVUROF
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACdv5A7lvn
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3KyYhBbXm
Within were the other students minus Kiri, Izuku, Bakugo and Kirishima. Those four were all in the nurse’s office.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbCFnCgmqp
Mina: “Jiro! You made it. You did great saving Kaminari and standing up to Ida!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRCdhKfgFi
Jiro: “Thanks.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSKcQ1JBbM
Jiro helps Denki into one of the several seats available.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3TO1dAZvx
Jiro: “What’s with them?”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH0MvCFBWx
She points to Sero and Uraraka who were sulking in the corner.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jyFOPFPeT
Mina: “Losing to Shouto really got to them.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnlVSzwEf5
Sero: “Sorry.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7suKqFIu8H
Uraraka: “We should’ve done better.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sxVvx9dzs
Jiro: “You were up against that guy after all.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PwlxqzY9G
Mina: “Yeah, and now Yaomomo has to face him.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlhczPLaSw
Jiro looks at the screen, more specifically Momo. She smiled at the sight.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CQ6BSctVs
Jiro: “For some reason, I think she’ll be fine.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WEtvGrxH0
Mina: “Whoa, she’s going all out.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHvZOss4lj
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH5XEEIUp2
He could feel it; it was time.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT6grvSVMN
He got up and waited for the first move to be made. Didn’t take long.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXYVmBZOr0
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXfPwM3Lbd
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wiVAgVkwm
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr97rlfCCx
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFqzDVnl64
It was strong enough to knock him off his feet and stick him to a pillar. But he wasn’t the only one stuck.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYQINy1k7b
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlquM8bZbjC
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRcewzW0f3
Shouto though won’t let that happen. He quickly regulated his temperature so he could freeze the net without freezing himself.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZJvndlbnl
For a tense few seconds, the two stared at each other. Whoever escapes first wins.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW4YIzDBMX
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNmN2GWYBF
Momo’s fingers were inches away from the bomb before her world went a solid blue.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡead9ewXUD9
So close, yet so far.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGoct0pP2X
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNTgfusokb
Yet despite those risks, she challenged him. Despite losing to him, he can respect that.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnaKcOAHz1
He places his hand on the ice encasing Mom and slowly melts it.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKnpUSMqx1
Shouto: “You were impressive. Sorry, it had to end this way.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUDBQTOFzz
All Might: “Villain Team Win!”

Mina: “Ah man! That guy is way too strong!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUZc3KdOhJ
Tsuyu: “But Yaoyorozu did very well.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfLV1JhS7X
Tokoyami: “Agreed, she fought admirably.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡureEivzUR3
Sero: “Yeah, much better than us.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3wZu2wlf5
Uraraka: “Yeah… ”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszbwc7O2xH
All Might: “Don’t feel discouraged! You all did magnificently! Use this exercise to better prepare for the trials in the future!”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFemPSvmnsn
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.”
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzWzajYwqX
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.
7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpf4unw3j8
Jiro: ‘I need to be better. I can’t fall behind.’
