Twisting the timeline by just an episode

***

UA, the day after finals...

Yet another peaceful morning at UA. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, a gentle breeze promising a free summer, students laughing now that their exams are over, parents at home dreading the approaching vacation. Absolutely everything was perf–

Correction, there were quite a few blotches of despair mixed in, Class 1A being no exception.

Ashido was on the verge of tears as she held back dramatic sobs of despair.

"E-everyone... I'm looking forward to h-hearing a–," she hiccupped, "All your stories about h-how camp was."

Izuku tried to comfort her while also keeping a safe distance from her acidic tears, "Maybe they'll let you go. There might be a last-minute twist or something."

Sero placed a restraining hand on the mossy-haired boy's shoulder, "Stop, Midoriya. By saying that out loud, you're just jinxing them."

Kaminari looked just as devastated as Ashido, "Whoever failed the exams would skip training camp and live in summer school hell. We didn't pass the practical, so we're doomed!" his voice rose to a shrill note of desperation, "Don't you get it, Midoriya?" he raised a hand and jabbed a finger into Izuku's eye, "I'll knock all the brains out of you!"

Sero deadpanned, "Ease up, Kaminari. I'm not sure I'll be able to go either. Our team only passed thanks to Mineta. I got knocked out. Since we don't know how their scoring stuff, I might have flunked out."

Kaminari was beyond reasoning, "Just please bring us back some souvenirs, I beg you!"

A question mark appeared over Haru's tilted head, "I heard it was in the woods somewhere, so would that be a rock or a stick?"

Kaminari tore at his hair in anguish, "They won't even have good souvenirs available!"

The door to the classroom slammed open, causing everyone to scramble to their seats and clam up.

Aizawa, as sleep-deprived as ever, entered the room, "Once the bell rings, you should be at your seats," he stood behind his desk and went straight to business, "There are a few of you who did not pass your final exams. So when it comes to the training camp in the woods..." he suddenly gave them a horrifically creepy grin, "Everyone is going!"

IT'S A LAST-MINUTE TWIST!

Haru slammed his desk, "HA!"

He leaned back towards Katsuki who angrily slammed a few thousand yen into his hand.

Kaminari was almost crying, "We really get to go to camp?"

Ashido actually was crying, "Seriously?"

Aizawa dropped the grin, returning to his usual gloomy demeanor, "Yeah. The good news is that no one bombed the written exam. Three failed the practical; badly. One team, of course, and Sero as well."

The dark-haired boy groaned and slumped in his seat, "Crap, I knew it! Mineta made it to the gate, but I didn't do enough to pass."

"You got to sleep in Midnight's lap," Haru pointed out unhelpfully, "Not many people can say that."

Mineta stood up in his seat, "Why do you have to rub it in, Class Rep?"

Aizawa glowered at them and made them all shut up, "Quiet down and let me finish. For the practical battles, the teachers made sure to leave a way for the students to win. Otherwise, you wouldn't have stood a chance. We were interested in how you worked together and how you approached the task at hand."
