Izuku stretched his back after finishing the last exam for the day that required him to stay in his seat. He set the laptop he had been using in his bag and stood up. He looked around at his pack and saw that he wasn't the only one relieved to be finished with the tests. The last test of the day is the one he is most excited about, the practical test. With an eager smile, he led everyone to the locker room to change into their suits.
"You excited?" Kaminari asked while taking off his shirt.
"I can't wait!" Izuku beamed and quickly slipped on his shorts, hopping on one leg.
"Izuku, my Mom wants you to come over after the midterms, do you want to?" Shinso asked. Internally he was apprehensive since Izuku would be the first friend he would have invited over in a long time. But he was sure that his feral friend would be happy to come over. He was proven right by what he said.
"Of course! I never got to talk to your Mom when I saw her last time." He said happily.
Shinso smiled and nodded. "I'll tell Mom to have dinner for tonight."
"How did you two meet, anyways?" Sero asked.
"He scared a couple of bullies off when I ran into his territory and I gave him some thank-you food afterward," Shinso said chuckling at the memory.
Sato nodded. "That fits."
They regrouped together and waited for someone to explain the exam to them. While waiting, Izuku was reminded of Asato and wondered how she was doing. He did talk to her once a week on the phone but he still missed their interactions. Mina gave him the idea of taking a class picture and sending it to her. Izuku beamed at the idea and pulled out his phone. The class overheard what they were saying and was already crowing together. Izuku extended a tendril with his phone in the air and took the picture with everyone smiling. Mina helped him send the picture to everyone in his contacts list. From there, Mina sent it to the rest of the class.
They were all happy about the picture. Izuku had gotten a response from Asato almost immediately with a paragraph about how happy she is to see him with friends.
Everyone stopped when their pack leader faced down the hallway. His smile grew and he hopped from foot to foot. Around the corner came Aizawa with the rest of the staff. Nezu popped out of his scarf and greeted everyone.
"Hello, everyone! We decided to do something a bit different for your practical exam!" He said cheerfully.
"We get to fight you guys!?" Izuku blurted out.
Everyone turned to him and Nezu laughed. "Very astute, Izuku! Yes, for your practical exams, you will be fighting one of your teachers, paired off with another classmate!" He said while throwing his arms up in the air.
Izuku squealed with glee while some of the class groaned. The green-haired boy pointed directly at Aizawa with a feral smile. "I wanna fight you! In the woods!" He almost demanded.
Eraserhead's quirk activated and glared at Izuku. "Quiet, you won't get to choose. The pairing has already been decided upon."
Izuku pouted and Nem giggled at his face. Mina hooked her arm with his and patted it. "Don't worry, Zuku. One day you'll get your chance."
The pairing was announced until it was just Kacchan and Izuku left with no more staff left to choose. Izuku gasped. "We get to fight all of you!?"
There was a booming laugh and All Might landed before the class. "No! You will be fighting me!" He said with some menacing inclinations.
Izuku shook Kacchan's shoulders. "Kacchan! We get to fight, All Might!" He said with glee.
The blond batted his hands away. "I can fucken hear just fine!"
