The Avatar ~ Izuku Midoriya

042

----

Sato and Kirishima didn't pass the exam. They had passed out due to hitting their limit. Recovery Girl went down to heal them.

"No way... It was that one-sided?"

"Their quirks were too ineffective against his."

....

It was then Asui and Tokoyami's turn to fight against Ectoplasm.

"Go!" The announcer said. Suddenly, a lot of Ectoplasm's clones were surrounding them. But they managed to escape them.

"Nice!"

"An escape only the two of them could pull off! Well... Mai could too.." Zuku said that last sentence in a whisper but I still heard him. My smile grew way bigger than ever.

"That's good communication. They're talking to each other. It may not seem like much, but it's important. I don't just mean having a sidekick or teammate that you know you match well with. Real heroes need to be able to communicate with anyone." Recovery Girl said walking through the door and sitting in her chair.

"Um, so... We were talking about these finals and how each student is supposed to be facing their weaknesses."

"That's right."

"Okay, so, what do Tokoyami and Asui have to work on? I'm having trouble seeing how Mr. Ectoplasm's quirk is a bad match-up against theirs."

"Oh? Well it's not good...for Tokoyami, at least."

"What do you mean?"

"Keep watching, you'll see."

We looked at the cameras and saw Tokoyami and Asui had tried to run away but Ectoplasm kept fighting them.

"Tokoyami is quick and can attack from afar, allowing him to keep his distance. Those are all strengths. But, looking at that another way, it means he's weak at close range."

"Wow, I never thought about his powers like that."

"And, Mr. Ectoplasm's clones can appear anywhere unexpectedly."

"On the other hand, there's Asui. A stellar with no clear weaknesses. She can provide support to her ally, as powerful as he may be. But she's important in another way, too. Her level-headedness and ability to provide emotional support are the key to them passing."

"Emotional support, huh?"

Then, a huge clone came out and took a bit...? From where they were standing. Tsu and Tokoyami were stuck. Dark Shadow and Ectoplasm were now fighting.

After a while, Tokoyami called Dark Shadow back before he went back to fighting Ectoplasm. But then he jumped in the air and kicked Dark Shadow. I noticed something on Ectoplasm's leg, though. It was the handcuffs! They passes!

"Wow, they legcuffed him!"

"Then they passed! They figured out a way to do it!"

"Whoa, Dark Shadow and Frog together-- what a unexpected but amazing team!" I said.

"They're so smart!"
