Elena sat down in the crowd, her cap on beside Katsuki, Hitoshi and the rest of the class.

Every teacher had their speeches for the classes, talking about the same things, milding the years prior down a lot more than normal. Now it was Elena's turn to talk.

"Now I'd like the valedictorian to come forth, Elena Aizawa!" Nezu smiled as Elena got up, paper in hand as she walked up to the podium.

She took a deep breath before looking at Katsuki and Hitoshi with a smile. "So, it's our big day. Finally." She started, making a few chuckles be heard.

"Been a tough few years, no? I know, speaking for other courses right now, we're heroes. But do all of you remember the last fight for U.A? That fight could not have been executed if it weren't for the inventions, if it weren't for everyone. We all fought, we fought, hard. No offense ya'll but you cut it all down quite a good amount." She looked at the teachers with disbelief before turning back.
"We've been through shit. And I'm talking trauma, I'm talking scarring things that no 15 to 18 year old should go through. I mean, I'm speaking for myself a bit there." She chuckled as people nodded in agreement.

"That's right!" People yelled from every course.

"Now we're all heading out into life. Some might go to college, some might go straight to an agency, like myself. But I trust that every person here, earned their position. You all worked hard, and now it's time to put that work to show. You'll all look back in a few years and think about your school years, or you won't because it sucked...but I know I will look back. And I will tell myself that it all worked out in the end." She continued.

"So...to end things in a cringe, but kind of meaningful way....Go Plus Ultra, all of you." She ended, looking up as she smiled. Everyone yelled out, plus ultra, as they stood up, clapping.

Elena grabbed her certificate from Nezu, giving him a small hug as Shota stood up regardless and hugged her. "I'm so proud of you." He whispered and hugged her tightly. "Wooo!" Mina, Yuko, and Hitoshi yelled as everyone began throwing their caps up in the air.

"We're real fucking heroes!!" Elena screamed as Mina screamed along, them running along in the dormitory. Everyone had packed and left. They had the party left but everyone but Elena, Katsuki, Mina and Hitoshi had moved out yet.

"Guys, you should get ready for the party tonight! Besides, Hitoshi and Elena need to be at the party two hours early to perfect everything! Come on! My mom, Yuko, Kirishima and Denki will come and help move everything out while you're getting ready. It'll be quick with Yuko's help...but you two should get ready!" Katsuki told them.

"Awwwh, okay! Let's go, Shi!" Elena yelled as she took the elevator up.

Elena sighed as she sat on a chair in the middle of the room. It was thirty minutes left before everyone were arriving, or rather...the doors were opening. And Elena felt exhausted.

"No worries, love! You look stunning, and everything here looks amazing!" Hatsume smiled and patted her on the shoulder.

"Hope so..." She sighed as she examined the room, the drinks, the food, the seating, the surprise decorations, et cetera.

Elena sighed in relief and stood up before going to one of the tables and grabbing a drink from the supply. "Might as well start early." She smirked and drank a sip.

"So you have no idea what she prepared?!" Kirishima asked, looking at me as we waited outside. "Nope, she won't tell me. Frustrating, I'm telling you."
