the copycat hero: Deku

Chapter 35

"That's not really all you can do, right?" Hitoshi asked quietly as they waited for the starting siren to go off, watching as Erasurehead stood opposite them.

"Maybe," Izuku grinned coyly as he began to stretch, "But you got to keep your cards close to your chest, you know?"

"So, you do have a plan?" Shinso asked, perking up slightly.

"Not really," Izuku shrugged, "Mostly just get in range of him and see what happens!"

"Seriously?" Shinso sighed as the other teen nodded, "I'm going to fail this exam so fucking hard."

"Don't think that just because I'm a teacher that I'll go easy on you!" Thirteen shouted as the two girls hid behind the large flower box, "I am a Villain right now!"

"Do you really think they'll hurt us?" Toru half-shouted over the raging wind the rescue Hero's quirk was creating.

"No, kero," Tsuyu said flatly, "In fact, we could probably use that to our advantage."

"What do you mean?" the invisible girl asked.

"Here's the plan."

Thirteen hummed to themselves as they continued to suck at the plant pot the two students were hiding behind, carefully regulating the power of their black holes so they wouldn't harm the students unless they got too close. The eyes on their suit narrowed as they waited for a solid minute, no sign of the two Heroes-in-training coming out, before shutting off their quirk, stepping carefully towards the two's hiding spot.

"Cowering away like this isn't very Heroic," they called as they darted around the side of the pot, fingers poised to catch the students off guard, blinking when the space was empty, "Huh?"

"Got you!" the cheery voice of Hagakure called from the side, the Hero immediately spinning on her heel to face the sound, unleashing her quirk in the direction of the voice.

"Over here!" Tsuyu's voice shouted from behind them, the Pro spinning again to try and find the source.

"Where are you looking?" Tooru shouted from the side, making the Pro sigh under their mask as they pointed each hand in the direction of the two voices.

"Don't think you can best me just by splitting up and hiding!" they shouted, unleashing their quirk.

The blood curdling scream echoed just beside the rescue Hero, making her shiver in fear at the sound of a body slapping to the ground beside her.

"MY ARM!" Tooru shrieked, the Hero immediately cutting off their quirk and dropping to their knees, feeling along the ground for the invisible girl.

"Hagakure!" Thirteen shouted, "Where are you? Get the Medic bots out here! Now!"

The quiet click made the Pro pause, looking up at the form of Asui fading into view, a soft laughing coming from where she'd heard Tooru fall.

"We got you!" the invisible girl said happily, "Don't worry Sensei! I'm fine! I was behind your quirk when you activated it!"

"I…you…what?" the spacesuit wearing Hero spluttered, "Asui, how did you do that?"

"Midoriya helped me figure out some of the more froggy aspects of my quirk," the girl replied as she handed Tooru her shoes and gloves, the other girl slipping them on, "I can camouflage myself against most surfaces."

"Very impressive," the Pro sighed, patting their chest, "Just never scare me like that again! I almost had a heart attack!"

"Sorry Sensei!" the two girls said in unison as they bowed, before being led out of the USJ by the Hero.
