~ Chapter 20 ~
"Well, it's almost summer vacation, but of course, it wouldn't make sense for you to rest for the whole month. During summer vacation, we'll have a training camp in the woods!" Aizawa announced.
Class exploded with excitement.
"However, those who do not pass the final exam before that... will be in summer school hell."
This made them drop down immediately. He sure loves to be mean to his students.
"Okay, that's it for the class." he said, organizing the papers into one file and tapped the edges on the podium to make them straight. "There's only one week left until the final exams. You are all studying properly, right? I'm sure you already know, but it won't be a written exam. There's also a practical component. Make sure you train your bodies and minds at the same time."
After he left, Denki and Mina shouted in despair and carefree.
"I haven't studied at all!"
"With the sports festival and internship, I didn't study at all!"
Denki: Midterm: 21/21
Mina: Midterm 20/21
"It's true we had one even after another, but..."
Fumikage: Midterm: 15/21
"For the midterms, we'd just started school, so they didn't cover much, so I didn't really have a hard time with them, but with the back to back events and stuff, the finals will be different..."
Rikido: Midterm: 13/21
Koji: Midterm: 12/21
"It'll be tough since there's a practical exam, too."
Mineta: Midterm: 10/21
"T-tenth on midterms?!" Denki and Mina exclaimed in shock.
"And here I thought you were one of us!"
"Guys like you are only likeable if they're dumb..! Where's the demand for this?!"
"The world, I guess." Mineta smirked.
"Ashido, Kaminari!" Izuku called. "L-Let's do our best! We all want to go to the training camp together, right?"
Izuku: Midterm: 5/21
"Yes! As class rep, I also have high hopes that you'll all be moved to action!"
Tenya: Midterm: 2/21
"It's pretty hard to fail if you just pay attention in class."
Shoto: Midterm: 6/21
"I agree. You could've at least ask us for a help and reminder in order to get ready for what test that's coming up." Y/N said, looking up from her book. "I didn't need help at all thanks to mom's teaching."
Y/N: Midterm: 3/21
Denki gripped where his heart is on his shirt.
"Be careful with your words!"
"You two," Momo called. "I may be able to be of assistance with the class lectures."
Momo: Midterm: 1/21
"Yao-momo!!"
Momo suddenly went glum, making Y/N and Shoto look at her in concern.
"I can't help at all with the practical, though..."
"I'm not one of those two, but can I join, too?" Kyoka asked.
Kyoka: Midterm: 8/21
"I'm having some trouble with quadratic functions..."
"Huh?" Momo looked up.
"Sorry, me too! How are you with classical Japanese?"
Hanta: Midterm: 18/21
"I'd like to join, too. There's a bunch of stuff I don't get..."
Mashirao: Midterm: 9/21
"Please!!!"
"Everyone!" Momo gasped with sparkles in her eyes. "Yes, of course!"
"Alright!!!"
"Then, let us hold a study session at my residence this weekend!"
"Seriously? I can't wait to see your house!" Mina jumped over.
"Oh, in that case, I must tell mother and have her open up the hall! What kind of tea are you all partial to? In my family, we always drink Harrod's or Wedgwood, so if you have any preference, let me know!" Momo said. "Of course, you can trust me to help you study, too! I will definitely show you how I can help!"
They had no idea what she's talking about, but they felt warm fuzzies with a smile.
"Look at the difference in virtue." Eijiro said next to Katsuki with a smile.
Eijiro: Midterm: 16/21
"I can do it, too! Want me to beat it into you?"
Katsuki: Midterm: 4/21
"Yeah, I'm counting on you! Ahh!!!"
"Huh?" Katsuki turned to see you grabbing Eijiro by the collar close to her with a death glare.
"Sixteenth on midterms?! How can you fall so low?! Didn't I help you study?!"
"Y-Yeah! But I still didn't get it and my mind went blank when the test started!" Eijiro stuttered.
"Were you seriously distracted...?"
"M-Maybe..."
Y/N put him in a headlock, making him yelp.
"You are gonna have to study with me again! Katsuki is very welcome join to help you study as well. Do you understand me?"
"Yes, yes! M-Ma'am..!"
"Good." Y/N said with a sweet sadistic smile and let go of him.
"S-So scary...!" he whimpered.
"Everyone's panicking now, even though it won't do any good to cram this late in the game." Yuga said.
Yuga: Midterm: 19/21
"Shouldn't you try cramming a little?"
Mezo: Midterm: 11/21
"What are you talking about? What is it?..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The practical exam.." Y/N mutttered as she sat alone taking a final bite of her (F/F).
She's sitting above the roof where she can have some peace. She told her friends she would like to eat alone for now. Not because of the Stain incident, but for some personal reasons. Y/N looked over the view as she find this sight beautiful.
"I miss you mom and dad." she sighed, closing her eyes, letting the wind blow into her face.
Y/N glanced around and her eyes set upon the violin. It looks pretty classy and a bit old. She remembered playing the violin when she was a kid and his dad taught her how to. Those were the good times when she used of dreaming to become a violin girl who brings joy to everyone that are feeling down. Y/N picked it up and a bow as she played it for a bit. It made a cringy sound and she fixed up the string by twisting the handle that help tighten up the strings. She played it again and it was perfect.
What she didn't notice is that someone who had always go on the rooftop alone is watching her. Y/N think what song she could play until she remebered listening to that beautiful song that made her not want to stop. Y/N held it up to her shoulder and got her bow ready and started playing.
https://youtu.be/J5FRwFTnbHo
The person there was shocked and in awe. They couldn't help but stare while listening. But they're not the only one. Someone else went up the stairs to call Y/N, but stopped to hear the beautiful violin song. They were shocked also and quickly recorded her and her song and once she's finished they ran off. Y/N smiled that her talent and practice as she remembered had paid off.
She turned and flinched to see the boy with spiky purple hair. Realization struck her.
"You're Hitoshi Shinso. The one that declare war on us."
Hitoshi flinched. "Y-Yeah."
"I see that you... saw my performance.." she said, looking away with a hint of blush.
"I think you played beautifully. I never seen someone play violin like that." Hitoshi said, trying to avoid her.
"Why are you so far away..?" she asked, noticing that he's a little far away from her.
"Aren't you scared of me or something?"
"Um, why should I?"
"If you haven't noticed or don't know what my Quirk does, you kept answering my question." Hitoshi said. "I can control your mind. Why the hell are you talking to me? I'm just wasting your time."
"I'm fully aware of that. But is it wrong to just wanting to have a talk with someone and get to know them?"
Hitoshi stayed silent.
"Your Quirk is not as bad as a villain. Plus, I know you just want to have a normal talk like everyone else. And I could see that some people have avoided you for their selfish reasons and assumptions." Y/N stared into his purple eyes that are filled with pain. "I don't think that talking to you would have been a waste of my time. I did because I wanted to and I trust you."
Hitoshi's eyes widened in surprise for the first time to hear someone say that to him.
"Sorry. I'm just having a hard time believing you really wanted to talk to me." he said, rubbing thr back of his head. "Like you said, people have avoided me because I was more suited to be a villain and they're afraid I would brainwash them. I was always jealous of people with flashy, heroic Quirks even you with a hybrid Quirk. It felt like something I could never have."
"Well, I say it's bullshit for them to think that way. You even believe them. There's no such thing as whether or not their Quirk is like a hero or a villain. It's just their fear." Y/N responded. "Fear is what can't be trusted. Trust me I have. I think your Quirk is something more than just the looks of it."
Hitoshi just stare at her, truely loss for words. Y/N placed the violin down and hid it and walked over to him and gave him a pat on the head, ruffling his hair. This snap him out and swatted her hand away.
"...Thanks. I really appreciate it."
Y/N nodded and that's when the bell rings that lunchtime is over. She started walking away towards the door.
"Wait."
She stopped and looked back at Hitoshi.
"Can we..." Hitoshi bit his lip. "Hang out here sometime?"
Y/N smiled. "Sure. Hopefully I'm not too busy."
As she headed towards the door, Hitoshi put up a smile that he's happy someone look up to him as a person instead of a villain. Y/N stopped again and looked back at him.
"You know, I think that with your Quirk and grades, I hope you'll transfer at the top of the hero class. Could really use someone to control them on hitting themselves like Katsuki?" she said, snickering at the last part.
Hitoshi smirked and snickered too.
"Don't worry. I will. I've already started training with your teacher Mr. Aizawa."
Y/N smiled even more.
"Knew it. Oh, keep my violin talent a secret. Don't want anyone to know yet."
With that she's gone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Alright!"
"Oh, it'll be easy if it's robots!" Denki joyously exclaimed.
"Yeah, yeah!"
"You guys look like you'd have a hard time controlling your Quirks against people." Mezo said through his tentacle.
"Yeah! But I can just let loose with robots, so it'll be a cinch!" Denki cheered.
"And it'll cinch for me to melt them!" Mina cheered also.
"I don't think it will be that simple and easy. Teachers will change every year like in sports festival. So, don't get your hopes up yet." Y/N said who's next to Mezo.
This made Mina and Denki turn glum, knowing that she's right.
"It doesn't matter if they're people or robots. They're the same if you beat 'em up, right?" Katsuki growled. "What're you idiots talking about it being a cinch for?"
"Who're you calling an idiot?!" Denki pointed at the porcupine Katsuki.
"Shut up!" Katsuki yelled, scaring Denki and Mina. "If you need to control your Quirk, then control it! Idiot!"
He then turned and glared at Izuku.
"Hey, Deku!"
Izuku flinched, snapping him out of his thoughts.
"I don't know if you've figured out how to use your Quirk a little or what, but you're seriously keep rubbing me the wrong way."
Ocacho shuffled over to them.
"Oh, he must be talking about how Deku was moving like Bakugo the other day."
"Oh, yeah!" Mina gasped.
"Ouch..." Y/N said.
"I don't need another half-assed result like at the sports festival. At the upcoming finals, we'll get individual scores, so we'll see who's better whether you like it or not. I'll beat you with an indisputable difference! I'll kill you!" Katsuki declared and turned to Shoto. "Todoroki! You, too!"
He then turned to Y/N.
"Y/N! You may have beaten me once in the sports festival, but this time I'll kick your ass with me as a winner! So don't you dare fail on me in this exam!"
With that he stormed off and slammed the door shut. Y/N was surprised he finally call her by her first name instead of the Lizard Freak which she was used to it by now.
"It's been a while since I've seen Bakugo that intense." Eijiro said, rubbing the back of his hair.
"Impatience...?" questioned Fumikage. "Or hatred?"
"I'll see you guys later. I'll see you for the study, Eijiro." Y/N said and walked out of the class, closing the door.
Y/N stopped and stared to see Katsuki walking away without looking back.
"Katsuki. If only you knew that Izuku wasn't even looking down on you like stepping stones that you aren't. Izuku just wanted to become a hero, not for some competition to see who's stronger in the end." she sighed and walked to the opposite direction. "Someone's gotta give him some beef to snap him out and that would be me, if he goes too far."
What she didn't notice is that Aizawa was leaning against the wall behind her, listening.
"Bakugo has gotten worse than I thought."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Y/N in her casual clothes with a bag full of books, a notebook, caculator, and pencil case was heading towards the library where Eijiro had texted her on where to meet. She opened the door to be met with silence as everyone searched for the books for them to read or reading. Y/N searched around for Katsuki and Eijiro. That's when she heard loud voices.
"C'monn, Bakugo!"
"Cram it, broomhead!"
She quickly ran over to see them sitting at the sunlight table by a window and were already earning stares from other library patrons. Stares that implied "Shhh."
"Sorry, folks!" Eijiro apologized in panic through a strained smile, but it was loud.
"Geez. Already making yourself an embarrassment in the library!!" Y/N whisper yelled.
"Ah, Y/N. You're here...!" Eijiro whispered.
"Duh. So what's a problem?" she said, sitting down next to them.
"We were trying to study, but we made so much noise. We should've done this at home."
"Me? Make the trip to your guys' place? No freaking way." replied Katsuki, making no noticeable effort to keep it down.
"What about your house then?" Y/N asked.
"And deal with my pain-in-the-butt hag of a mom? Pass." he scoffed. "Plus, she'll know that it's you that I like and think that we're dating.."
"What was that?"
"Let's just hurry up and finish this crap."
"Heck yeah!"
Y/N whacked him in the head to be quiet and pointed that they're already getting stares again, making him shrink.
"Ah, too loud. Sorry..."
"What's with the 'sorry, sorry'? You dumb or what? Oh, right. You are."
"For once, I agree.." she sighed.
"What? No, I ain't dumb. Well, dumber than you, I guess, which is why we're here in the first place."
"Only gonna explain stuff once, so pay attention."
"And you better understand."
"Heck yeah, I will! Ack."
"Eijiro..."
"Just show me the damn problems already."
"Right. First.... this."
Still aware of stares from other patrons, Eijiro brought out his notebook and pointed to the quadratic equations that had been giving him trouble.
"I'm kinda lost when it comes to math, man."
"This piss-easy stuff...?"
"I aced those math because they're easy. I can't believe you're bad at it."
"Yeah..."
Katsuki looked at the first problem, thought for a moment, and dashed off the answer.
"There. Done."
Eijiro and Y/N stared blankly before Eijiro gave an uneasy laugh.
"That's how you help him study?" Y/N asked.
"Yeah, okay, but I need to know how you got the answer."
"How? Just work out the calculations like usual. You stupid?"
"Thing is, I don't even know how to start 'like usual.'"
"Hahhh? All of math's just about this basic sort of calculating."
"Sure, so could you teach me whatever tricks you use for all that?"
"It's all baked right into the equation, don'tcha see?"
"No, I don't. So why don't you explain it, nice and slow..."
"Just multiply these guys, add these other ones, and bam."
Another blank stare from Eijiro and Y/N, while Katsuki gave them a no-nonsense glare.
"I knew studying with Katsuki is a bad idea..."
Eijiro clutched his head.
"After smashing these guys together, you just take down these other suckers to solve it."
"You don't make any sense, Katsuki.." Y/N sighed and turned to see Eijiro who was listening, held back some tears, and managed a thumbs-up.
"That was a real manly way to put it, dude... Ow..!"
Y/N kicked him with a glare.
"You don't get it, don't you? OMG.. Here. Let me show you how you can solve it since Katsuki isn't smart enough to explain." she said, earning a glare from Katsuki. "The Quadratic Formula uses the "a", "b", and "c" from "ax2 + bx + c", where "a", "b", and "c" are just numbers; they are the "numerical coefficients" of the quadratic equation they've given you to solve. For ax2 + bx + c = 0, the values of x which are the solutions of the equation are given by: x equals -b plus or minus the square root of b2- 4ac over 2a. That's when you this to help you solve this problem."
Eijiro looked over and it and did what she told him to do as she showed him her notes. When he did, he got it.
"Wow, I get it now. Thanks, Y/N. You're the best!!!" he said, hugging her.
"Shhh!" Y/N shushed him.
"Oh, right, right...."
Katsuki's eyebrow drew together while he watched Eijiro's behavior around Y/N as the area between his eyebrows deepened.
"Tch! You think you're smarter than me, Y/N?!"
A wave of hushing from the surrounding library goers. Looks like Katsuki has become the no.1 loudmouth today. Eijiro's face beet red with embarrassment as Y/N facepalmed herself with a hint of red cheeks. Katsuki rolled his eyes for his outburst while finding it pleasant in their suffering of embarrassment.
"At least Y/N got a point to make you understand how to do it..."
"Thank you, Katsuki."
"Yeah, maybe I should listen to you for now on, Y/N."
Just then, the wide-eyed boy clutching a picture book marched right up to the table.
"Huh? What's this kid want with us?"
"You lost, little guy?" asked a concerned Eijiro.
The boy shook his head, pointed at Y/N, and spoke.
"You're the girl who won the U.A. sports contest, right? I-I just wanted to say how cool you are...! I find you cool in that dinosaur form you can turn into. What was that? It looks nothing like any dinosaurs I have ever seen."
He's a fanboy.
"Well, I'm flattered. It's the Indoraptor. Indominus Velociraptor. Instead of a long name, you put them together to Indo-Raptor. It's a name for hybrid."
"Wow...!" his eyes sparkled and asked her shyly, taking out the notebook from his backpack. "C-Can I have your autograph?"
"Sure." Y/N smiled, taking out the pen.
She never knew that she would get a fan for now. She flipped through the notebook to try and find a blank page and noticed a quite few signatures from pros and U.A. students with pictures of them. Y/N then found a picture of herself in her human form and in Indoraptor form. She looked at him with a surprise expression.
"I took some pictures of you in the sports festival. Sorry that it sounds creepy." he rubbed his arm in embarrassment.
Y/N shook her head. "That's okay. And I see you want to go to U.A."
"Yes. I really want to go there and be a hero too."
Y/N then signed her first name with a drawing of a Jurassic World T-Rex logo and handed the notebook back to him.
"Looking forward to see you in the Sports Festival once you get in."
The child's eyes went wide before smiling and nodded. His eyes then looked at Katsuki.
"Oh, you're the angry boy who lost to the dinosaur girl."
Oh, that came out wrong as Katsuki was reminded how Y/N beat him up real good and headbutted him through the rough explosion. The last of his patience snapped.
"HAH?! YOU BRAT! SHUT UP! I'M NOT A LOSER!!"
Katsuki's roar echoed through the library before Eijiro and Y/N could react. Yelled at by a stranger for the first time in his life, the child's face crumpled, his eyes filled with tears, and he wailed, only adding to the cacophony.
"R-Really, really sorry, everyone!" sputtered Eijiro as he leaped up and dragged his short-fused friend from the library, leaving her to deal with his crying as she tried to comfort him.
Y/N doesn't know how to stop this chaos and she shuffled through her bag to find something to comfort him. That's when she found a cute crochet dinosaur that she made when she was bored.
Y/N showed it to him, making him stop crying as he only sniffed after seeing that.
"It's a dinosaur. I made it myself when I was bored. I hope this would make it up for my loud friend for making you cry."
The child stare at it in awe and reached out and took it. He look at it again for a moment and hugged it, giggling.
"Thank you, miss..."
"Y/N. Call me Y/N."
He's now no longer crying and gave her a cute smile, making her heart melt.
"I gotta go. I still need to help my friend study. I'll see you later, kid."
"Bye bye."
Y/N then walked out of the library and sighed in relief that problem was fixed. She stopped and looked at the two boys who have been watching her comfort the boy Katsuki yelled at.
"You're really a manly one, Y/N." Eijiro sniffed.
"Shut up. Let's go find somewhere else to study."
"Right."
"Tch." Katsuki scoffed and followed.
