NORMAL POV-

_________________________________________

LaToya's bloodshot eyes caught Aizawa and Joke at the arena bleachers from afar as she headed over to the anteroom.

The Smile Hero darkly glared, to which Toya responded with an even more sadistic grin. Bet you enjoyed the show...Joke~

The sherbet-haired woman felt the shiver sent to her spine. Sure, LaToya was a reforming Hero-in-the-making and Aizawa's student. She made it this far, despite the Kamino incident 2 weeks ago. But no matter how much she tried, Joke could only mirror Kunoichi as one thing. A villain. Nothing less. She was there five years ago, at her court trial before being made guilty to spend her teen years in Max. Juvenile Detention. She was one of most Heroes who wanted her to rot in jail for the rest of her life. Using methods, that some might say were perceptively illegal - to make it happen.

And Kunoichi knows.

Now that she's released by Hero HQ, seeing her smirk at her was a visible taunt. Joke would know if someone wanted revenge for getting them into prison when she saw one. "Has your student always been so...sadistic? It's sorta creeping me out." Joke asked Eraser.

Shouta shrugged absent-mindedly whilst he paid close attention to his students struggling to pass the test. LaToya entered the anteroom, barely 60 students were in the room. Which meant less than half of the spaces were still open. Eyes were already on her, whispers echoed in the wide room. Some sounded terrified that she made it into the next round. A few were bitter she was through. She immediately caught sight of only one member of her class.

"Kunoichi, you passed too?" Todoroki turned around to her and first caught her bloodshot eyes. "What happened with your eyes?"

"I got hit by some sort of flash attack. I probably just need eyedrops and I'll be fine. The second years I faced said their friends were going after them. Guess you showed them, huh, Daddy Issues."

"I see, some schools have it out for us. Because we're finalists from the Sports Festival."

"I think it's more than that." The periwinkle-haired teen walked over to a seat and crossed her legs in a meditating position. She began softly rubbing her eyelids with her thumbs and calmly took a deep breath. Darcy jumped onto the seat in panther form and relaxed her head by Toya's knee. Just as he turned around, Shouto quickly met eyes with the Whirlwind Quirk user from afar. In that split second, his jovial mask melted into a dark grimace at the Endeavor's son just as he continued talking to one of his schoolmates.

Wonder what his problem is? Todoroki pondered.

A while later, more students came entering the anteroom; Yaomomo, Jiro, Asui and Shoji walked in as the recent UA students passed. "Oh. Glad to see you passed, Todoroki," Momo smiled.

"I didn't doubt you," Tsu noted.

"Are you the only one in our class here?" Kyoka asked. "No. Kunoichi and I just got here. So far we're the only ones here," Todoroki averted behind him as the students caught Kunoichi meditating.

Kyoka walked over. "Hey, Toya. You alright?"

"Yeah. Sorry about earlier. What I said back there in front of the other school...wasn't really true," Toya sighed, her bloodshot eyes irritating her.
