Mio finished her training with Maki. She told her that she could use tools like sword, but that's all. It's not like Mio is proficient in that field, as she's ranged sorcerer. Maybe-
"Panda senpai! Can you practice with me for a while?" Mio stated, as soon as she got an idea. Panda was just finished with Nobara, so he walks towards Mio. He nod.
"Sure, what is it?" Mio then ask for a firefighter suits. Panda nod, surprisingly. Mio didn't know that they have that here.
Panda simply take a pillow and an old mannequin before dress the pillow with the firefighter suit. The tired Nobara and Megumi just look at Mio, who seems excited to try something new. She take a deep breath, before focus. She look at the firefighter suit. It should block her fire, right?
"Cursed Technique: Fire Blade!" Mio make sign of cut with her arm. In seconds, the pillow ripped apart, in fire. For the firefighter suit, it's burning. Mio smile, wide. Maki didn't say anything, but she smile. Her junior found something interesting.
"Wow, now, you have develop another technique." Panda commented. Mio nod, happy. She jumps a few times, before hugs Maki.
"Thank you for teaching me how to use sword, Maki san!" She genuinely happy. Maki didn't say anything, once again. Yet, she tap Mio's back a few times. Nobara smile, but her tired state didn't let her make any movements, even slightly.
"Salmon." A voice of Toge makes Mio release the hug. She smile, once again.
"Thank you too, Panda senpai, everyone. I'll work harder! We, will win the exchange event." That's what Mio said. Nobara could feel her exhausted self turns okay, before she slowly sit down.
"That's our girl!" Nobara yells from behind.

It's the day of the event. Mio tied her hair into a long braid. Satoru surprisingly inside her room in the morning, without any notice. She didn't want to say anything, but instead, he did. He tap her shoulder lightly as Mio is busy applying her compact powder.
"Question, Sasaki." He stated. Mio stop tapping the sponge, before she look at Satoru in the mirror.
"Yeah?" She asks.
"Does Sasaki clan could ever control fire that doesn't made by them? I'm curious." He asks. Mio continue to dab her loose powder on her nose, before sigh. She thinks for a while. Her father has never do that. Her uncle, her family. No one ever extinguish any fire that made other than themselves.
She hums for a while, thinking.
"I'm not sure. But, I think the answer is no. No ever in my family ever control the fire made by the others. They could not even put out the fire from the stove... Except for me." Her last words are low, but sure, Satoru could catch what she said.
He didn't say anything, instead, he left. Mio than put away her loose powder when she's done. She grabs her phone before put it inside her pocket. As today would be the even, she decided to wear an off - shoulder uniform with a zipped slit on her left thigh.
She wears a flat that's in her opinion could stay in one piece for the event. After Mio thinks that she feels ready for the day, she headed towards the pantry. Megumi and Nobara is eating breakfast. The two greet her. They know that Mio doesn't really eat breakfast, so they rarely invite her to eat together.
Mio take out a slice of bread, before she cut it into half before she grab a carton of milk in the fridge and pour it into a cup. After she put away everything, she then sit next to Nobara, before eat her mini breakfast. Nobara just smile. She knew about how Mio rejects breakfast so much.
"Are you ready for the event, Mio?" She asks. Mio simply nod. She grin, widely as today is the day she would show everyone her true fire technique.
"Yes, I am. Can't wait!" Mio already eat her bread, before she drinks the milk from the cup. It doesn't make her full at all, but it's suffice to make sure she'll not dying if they event finish later than usual.
"Sasaki san." Megumi calls for her. Mio turns around, before she look at Megumi.
"Yeah?"
"Are you and Aki... broke up because of your marriage?" He asks. Mio simply, surprised. Nobara told him?! Well, she can't be mad at all. She sigh, before nod.
"Yeah, we do. Well, there's nothing I can do at all. It's just, hard. Anyway, I don't really want to talk about this, please? Can we focus on the exchange event?" She said, before gulps all the milk left. Mio left the pantry, before she heads towards the place they should assemble and wait for the Kyoto students.
After a few minutes of walking, Megumi and Nobara arrived, along with the second years. Mio didn't say anything, but she yawns, waiting. After another couple of minutes, everyone in Tokyo has arrived. The principal, along with who would watch their event. Mio looks at the left side. Kyoto students arrived. Mai seems like she wants to say something, but she close her mouth when Mio smile at her.
She must be traumatized.
"Alright. Where's that idiot?" A voice from a purple hair woman makes Mio smile. She remain silent, before cross her arm.
"Satoru is late." Panda stated.
Okay, her eyes widened. Satoru? Satoru Gojo?!
"Well, he's always late, no matter what." Maki sigh. Mio looks around. She could not Satoru, yet.
Mio remain silent. Yet, there's something in her heart telling her that something is not right today. When Satoru arrived, he yells happily, making a not so innocent face because he's late. He even proud of it. Mio didn't mind his childish antics, but it seems like he brought something for everyone today. He arrived with a steel container, and on top of the container, there's a lot of pink dolls. Creepy pink dolls that looks like voodoo doll.
"Hi everyone! Wow, I'm so early today. I just got back from the overseas. Here, some souvenirs for the Kyoto students. They said that these dolls work to protect you from a certain tribe in Tokyo." He even distribute the dolls without any guilt. Mio didn't mind at all, so she cross her arm while waiting.
He then walks towards the purple hair woman. She looks pissed.
"Oh sorry. None for you, Utahime." He said.
Oh, he calls her by name, Mio supposed?
"I don't fucking need it! Use honorifics, I am your senpai!" She yells out loud.
Satoru turns away, before he walks straight to Tokyo students. He stops a few metres from them. Mio look at the container.
"Well, since I didn't buy any souvenirs for you guys, here is your gift! Your departed friend, Yuji Itadori!" He yelled out loud, before a pink hair- Yuji, jumps out of the container.
"Hey! OPP!"
