How Things Should Have Been (Todoroki Toya || Dabi x Reader)

Lol, I updated late again. I still have a ton of exams but for some reason despite studying I did NOT get good grades. Like I failed one of them how tf does that happen!? Whatever, I'll retake it and get a better grade, probably because I was tired asf and took it after I cleaned my house. Enjoy the new chapter, and sorry because it's short I'm posting an Omake this week to make it up for it.

--------------------

"Only sixty spots remain!"

An announcement had stirred up the current examinees. "Just one more person damn it..." (y/n) muttered. "I can't even find any of my classmates either, ughh~ this shit is killing me." She whined after.

(y/n) was in a building that was twenty floors high, currently trying to reach the roof to scout victims. Her alleged spider-nest idea nearly backfired, but the girl managed to eliminate one student.

Finally, she reached the top of the stale looking building and scouted. No one she recognized, which must mean a lot of the students from her class had passed... which added even more pressure.

"I didn't expect to find someone here!" Someone suddenly attacked (y/n), but she managed to dodge. "What's a puny little U.A. student doing here all alone? You lost or something?" An older male mocked U.A.

All (y/n) did was pout and stay silent. This guy seems to enjoy talking... she rolled her eyes. "Staying silent, huh? Well, that'll make things a lot faster I suppose." This random student began attacking (y/n) as she stood on the defense. It was alright if she fell, she could break her fall by making a massive bubble. But right now, she wanted to eliminate this guy for herself and pass this exam.

If I can just find out what type of quirk he has it'll be so much easier! The student in front of her didn't seem to use his quirk. He looked human, so it wasn't a mutation quirk. He didn't seem to both transform into something either and nor did he have an emitter since all he did was swing fists at her. Was he waiting for something, or someone?

But there was one thing you could spot from this guy and that was his recklessness. He didn't seem to care to get too close. What if she had a quirk that would blow him off this building? Was he that determined to pass?

(y/n) glanced at the students' targets, and only one was lit up. That added more to her theory. She tightened her grip on the orange ball, and made an opening instead of waiting, after all, there weren't many slots left.

She activated her quirk from her feet, making the guy slip and fall. "Ack!" Allowing (y/n) to hit one of the targets, and lighting it up. One more to go and then that's it! But she celebrated a little early. The boy pushed (y/n) off and ran downstairs, but something didn't seem right.

He was smiling as he ran away. He lost to an underclassman and ran away while he smiled? (y/n) went downstairs to chase after him. "Too scared after losing to someone younger then you? Dang, you really are pathetic after mocking me too."

"Shut up you stupid foreigner, you have no idea what I'm capable of!" The boy yelled. "Foreigner!? I was born in Japan, I'll have you know!" The wild goose chase continued as the boy continued to run downstairs and finally exit the building, followed by (y/n). "Aha! Wait..." No one was in sight? He didn't seem so fast to begin with, how could he disappear so fast when (y/n) was just five seconds late?

"Damn it! Come out here you idiot, I'll show you what kinda foreigner I am!" (y/n) began to feel a little tipsy. She held her forehead in pain. That's strange... I don't recall ever getting headaches while I used my quirk. I didn't even use it that much either. Was it because I ran too much?
