After a month of successful interventions, Izuku professed his confidence in Katsumi's practiced skills. She was, at this point, just as lethal as his first go at it, so he thought it was time.
That night, he gave her praise, as any decent teacher does when the student reaches mastery. Congrats, you did well. I think it's time for an assessment. Did you hear the news?
Walking back towards UA, Katsumi responded silently, her HUD on constant alert for threats. What, that device prototype was stolen by the Yakuza?
Izuku reminded her of what exactly it was, and how it would be useful. Not because he wanted it for himself, but because it would be a great way to get the blonde girl out of harm's way. It's not just a device. It's the one that can help us the most. The translocator, or the portal device. It can allow us to transport the larger materials we'll need.
She instantly agreed, now reaching the UA gates. They opened at her approach.That would be perfect! We already have the parts from Dagobah, now we just need to get the stuff from Yoyoarozu and Shield! Perfect!
But before then, you need a final test, and the scenario is right there. Can you handle it?
Determined, she was completely ready for what lie ahead. I'll do my best.
However, before she could get back to her room, she found that there were still students awake. The Twins were watching TV. As literal night owls, they preferred a nocturnal schedule. And... based on her live feed from the security cameras, Leonard was also there. Although, he wasn't paying attention to the TV. He was, instead, watching the door.
She froze, He knows.
He absolutely knows.
What do we do?
Extra training. Find a way to your room, without using the doors.
She scanned the environment... before finally realizing, and approaching her method of entry.This will be just like the final test! Easy peasy...
Meanwhile, Leonard waited patiently, without moving, through the night. The two insomniacs paid him no mind, and Sei was sound asleep. No, he was there because there was one person unaccounted for. Or rather, two: The girl and the ghost.
Katsumi and Izuku.
His eyes narrowed as he detected their power just outside... before she approached the wall, and appeared to climb into it. She was avoiding confrontation, in the most desperate manner...
Sighing, he laughed slightly to himself, before going up to where he knew she'd go...
Reaching her room, Katsumi was glad to have the face mask and armored protection. Why are ventilation shafts so dirty here?!
Well, Nezu used to use them for his own amusement, but since he doesn't oversee things so closely, they've gone unusued... and uncleaned.
I am building a drone to clean them wherever I live.
Smart.
As she dusted herself off, removing the armor to prepare for bed... there was a knock at the door. Tensing, she took off the mask, and hood. Without those, she would appear as if she were wearing comfort clothes... even if they were a little dirty.
