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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMt02mHBUE
Considering the fact she hears no explosions and Kiri went with Midoriya; that leaves only one person capable enough to defend the bomb.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloRrk0juVI
Momo: “Shouto Todoroki… ”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64tYRALHGm
The other person who got in through recommendations, but unlike her, he didn’t reject it.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflsJdaMcAm
Considering his quirk, he could have easily gotten in without it.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9RaSIqwG6
He seems like an impossible obstacle.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhI9lFuwBJ
Momo: ‘What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLwqkTFaSf
Shoji: “Yaoyorozu.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnEuFiwSLe
Momo: “Huh!!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpZMafyqoB
While Momo was stuck in a panic loop on her bike, Shoji somehow sneaked up on her.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8oZ5ICQEw
Momo: “I-I’m sorry, civilian. I’ll help you get back to the safe zone; get on.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXicNS3eij
Shoji: “Appreciated. But before that, I have some information regarding the other civilians.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn6oy7l38o
Momo: “Really?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7Y1v849Mu
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtzbP3vUT1
Shoji: “We should hurry; I can hear Ida quickly covering the city. He’ll eventually catch up to the last civilians.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2OJ7r2daQ
Momo: “R-Right! Thank you.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWnYLoo89d
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD36CVDhXsa
Momo: ‘One step at a time. That’s all that matters right now. One step. I can win this.’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6MBE2NqWt
The next second, they were off.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1ABAQaKOQ
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4XV5A2NR6
Jiro: “You really need to learn how to shorten this silly spell.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPg0rxuiATU
Denki: “Sowru.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFqZk77uwf
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHff9BYaQJ
Still too long to help right now. So Jiro is stuck dragging him through the city, slowly.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce1fB1xjs0
Jiro: “At least it’s not raining rubble anymore.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEo9DArI6V
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k19Bw6SzY
After a few moments, her eyes widen.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9SZAwUNh2
Jiro: “Shoot!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllUkx1Cwdc
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KhCFjFcCu
Denki: “Hvh?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwg6irzFk9
Jiro: “Don’t make a sound.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7vk5rOM56
Denki: “I cwm teka Iad, lat mv… at hum.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaJbJtgIcV
Jiro hits Denki over the head with one of her ears.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGuQo7HS8J
Jiro: “No, you can’t, idiot. Now be good and stay put.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDuh3fAyMv
Before Denki could say more, Jiro ran out of the alley and unleashed another sound wave from her boot amplifiers.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvd0pKFmt2
Jiro: ‘I hope I’ll run into a hero before Ida gets me.’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovRuqUtbeY
With that in mind, she ran away from the approaching engines.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0UD7ZNGYG
She did the best she could, but Jiro was still not that athletic when compared to others.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38Xx0Zza0f
So she turned around to face the music. Coming down the street like a rocket was Ida.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42b9jyuhye
Ida: “Give up now! You can’t beat us villains! Hahaha!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAWxjwDZgc
Jiro: “Last time I checked, you’re not faster than sound.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiELBc9X6iK
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fbWvsByoV
Jiro: “Tch!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yczCejFB5
She stops the sound attack and attempts to dodge to the side. But it’s much too late.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPt95WCslS
Ida: “Got you.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79qskTaGzV
But before Ida can grab Jiro, a bright light erupts above their heads. A flash grenade!
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IIEHGJMqR
Ida: “Ugh!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEcN7rf7Db
Thanks to that flash, Jiro was able to narrowly avoid being captured. But still, she’s just as blind.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWiGQzLS7h
But thanks to a warm hand, she was brought further into safety.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvHyYNARtB
Momo: “Jiro, are you alright?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo29uAB70im
Jiro: “My eyes hurt, but I’m fine. Thanks.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NRicMTLA5
Momo: “Now take my bike and get to the safety zone. I’ll deal with Ida.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpkpesf3IH
Jiro: “A-Are you sure?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOltOF33Q7H
Momo: “Yes, fighting villains is a hero’s job. Now go.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J5bGPhYrs
Not needing to be told twice, Jiro nods and gets on the bike. Thank God she took basic lessons when she was younger.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvcQ0MvyiP
Jiro: ‘I might as well get Kaminari too.’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBQg86wx4x
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6OwQyoNhr
Ida: “Impressive hero, but do you really think you can stop me?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwpb65Qjvn
Momo: “Yes.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWYWSymIhC
Ida: “Haha, then impress me, hero!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPf5Lnc3TV
With his impressive speed, Ida nearly teleported in front of Momo. Already, his foot was coming down to crush the shield.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy00LgVQzY
But as soon as he touched it, he heard a click.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4Fj0zlk2W
Momo: “Checkmate.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26PK3syZDi
A burst of sticky goo exploded out of the shield and covered Ida before quickly hardening.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0w9DU8sNa
Ida fell to the ground, stuck and still as a statue.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3aSJRke9m
Ida: “What?!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxNxmkC3kG
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.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjaSIR7Nzu
Momo: “Or you could have attempted a back attack. But I predicted you would attack me head-on. You are pretty straightforward after all.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjVjyZnmxX
Ida: “Indeed, you bring up excellent points, Yaoyorozu. I will reflect on this defeat!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgNtzKe29a
Momo nods before reabsorbing the shield. Still, losing the bike was a big blow to her reserves.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjTN0TLsS6
Momo: ‘Will I have enough for my biggest challenge?’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijiFO3S2r8
After a moment to think of her strategy, she sighed.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAxBf7znui
Momo: ‘It will have to be.’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlXgbJj7h9
It was time for a full frontal assault, plus ultra.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEeHRoNAP4
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04KpIXEFaR
It didn’t take long to get Kaminari to the safety zone. Good thing too, Jiro couldn’t refill the gas like Momo could.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSZO2kGFSm
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMcCK8LPLk
Jiro: ‘How long do her creations last?’
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZqAq2LYOW
Before the implications of that question reveal themselves, the girl felt a sudden gust of wind.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eoiV3eCOZ
All Might: “Congratulations on making it to safety. Come, join the rest of your class in the viewing area.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFImauRRfL
Jiro: “Viewing area?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgGgms0Ynd
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhzoAn9Fya
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPGd84dbMp
Within were the other students minus Kiri, Izuku, Bakugo and Kirishima. Those four were all in the nurse’s office.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznkkqvVV4m
Mina: “Jiro! You made it. You did great saving Kaminari and standing up to Ida!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN5TOgFoTT
Jiro: “Thanks.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzRPtzxTOd
Jiro helps Denki into one of the several seats available.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTtnRxeMJL
Jiro: “What’s with them?”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ684bq7gjUS
She points to Sero and Uraraka who were sulking in the corner.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEjEKD7APc
Mina: “Losing to Shouto really got to them.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DJYlPPJ6X
Sero: “Sorry.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR08yp8u5x
Uraraka: “We should’ve done better.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6dukZzFRW
Jiro: “You were up against that guy after all.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGD4inc1td
Mina: “Yeah, and now Yaomomo has to face him.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFApPc3hKx2
Jiro looks at the screen, more specifically Momo. She smiled at the sight.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLLik4qC6I
Jiro: “For some reason, I think she’ll be fine.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkQzHArjZp
Mina: “Whoa, she’s going all out.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuSn7MPJlQ
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgp9V6j5XZx
He could feel it; it was time.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs772V9vMln
He got up and waited for the first move to be made. Didn’t take long.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUUrZmmtQR
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFTkono94B
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ4qoIgWAO
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRpFwFeScD
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdYy2aHtwu
It was strong enough to knock him off his feet and stick him to a pillar. But he wasn’t the only one stuck.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gYPahQiSl
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LXMopq3gm
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrtAjYQLT3
Shouto though won’t let that happen. He quickly regulated his temperature so he could freeze the net without freezing himself.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnft0xxWkMF
For a tense few seconds, the two stared at each other. Whoever escapes first wins.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa8umTgw7A
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3cwKFn3gx
Momo’s fingers were inches away from the bomb before her world went a solid blue.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrshTj60DK0
So close, yet so far.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76rOXBard4
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatXDuGRvvL
Yet despite those risks, she challenged him. Despite losing to him, he can respect that.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUL6xUyQKC
He places his hand on the ice encasing Mom and slowly melts it.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x973069zK
Shouto: “You were impressive. Sorry, it had to end this way.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q4TrjKhnR
All Might: “Villain Team Win!”

Mina: “Ah man! That guy is way too strong!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLFWbq7Qim
Tsuyu: “But Yaoyorozu did very well.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGTY9yY94L
Tokoyami: “Agreed, she fought admirably.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZevuaH31LF
Sero: “Yeah, much better than us.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2ZBySAUbF
Uraraka: “Yeah… ”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXMKxMO7pC
All Might: “Don’t feel discouraged! You all did magnificently! Use this exercise to better prepare for the trials in the future!”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvu1Daws2Yf
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.”
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05GU7WvXDm
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.
93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91mNn7GAxl
Jiro: ‘I need to be better. I can’t fall behind.’
