Izuku and Y/N stood in a safe space, hidden behind multiple large rocks. The previous examinees, from Ketsubutsu High, were relatively nearby but still out of earshot. With the two best friends, was Uraraka, looking very confused at the situation. 

Unbeknownst to the two young men, Uraraka had pulled out of the exam balls. An eerie smile appeared on her face, as she brought the ball close to one of their targets. A loud gunshot suddenly erupted, and one of Y/N's bullets whizzed by, in her general direction.

"Let me guess. You're someone from Shiketsu?" Izuku asked. In that instant, he'd drawn one of Y/N's pistols. 

"I'm what?" she said.

"Uraraka has been working on her quirk. Training hard. She can even ignore its side effects for a short period of time and use it to make herself float without getting sick. But you, you haven't tried to use it at all, even though you were in danger. And even more suspicious, you exposed yourself to the enemy without a plan. That's not like the Uraraka I know. So who are you?" Izuku explained. 

Hearing Izuku's words, Y/N was now on guard as well.

"If you saved me even though you knew I was a fake, does that mean you were trying to use me somehow?" the girl asked. Her face and outfit began to seemingly melt, revealing the Shiketsu girl from before, covered in some kind of grey sludge.

"Alright, I've had enough of this!" He reached in his overcoat and drew his other pistol. Upon firing at the girl before him, Y/N's bullet missed, ricocheted, and scraped the side of Izuku's torso, earning a scream from him.

Tape suddenly launched towards the girl, forcing her to dodge. The source was none other than Sero, standing atop a tall rock.

"Dammit, guys! What's this enviable situation you guys are in?" he called out.

"Sero!" Midoriya exclaimed. The one true Uraraka was with him. She leapt into the air, positioning herself high above the Shiketsu girl.

"Release!" Uraraka yelled. She began a controlled fall downward, but her target quickly dodged out the way. Seeing how outnumbered she now was, the Shiketsu girl got some distance and sat on a high rock, looking down.

"I really, really wanted to talk to you guys some more

"I really, really wanted to talk to you guys some more. But not with so many people around. What a bummer. Ochaco Uraraka. He really trusts you a lot, you know." the girl said, standing.

"Huh?" Uraraka questioned. The girl leapt off where she stood and the 1A group quickly lost sight of her.

"Good riddance. This day has been hard enough without her bullshit added to the mix." Y/N complained.

"Come back, naked girl!" Sero said.

"Don't follow her!" Izuku shouted.

"Aw, man, why not?" Sero asked, sounding disappointed.

"Because she may have been the first naked girl to run from you, but I doubt she'll be the last." Y/N joked.

"It might've been her quirk, but it looked like she wasn't wearing her clothes or her targets. There's still a chance she might come after us. But think about it, we don't have much time left, and it would be hard to get a point off her. Also...You two are actually you, right?" Izuku said.

"Huh? Actually us?" Uraraka said.

"What are you talkin' about?" Sero asked.

"Well, earlier, that girl transformed into Uraraka's clone..." Izuku began. Hearing that, Uraraka's face lit up bright red, having misunderstood the circumstances. Sero suddenly grabbed Izuku by the shoulders and furiously shook him.

"Was she naked then too, Midoriya?!" Sero screamed, extremely curious.

"That's what you're concerned about? Of course not, she had a costume on!" Izuku replied. Sero released his hold on him, placing a hand to his chin, in thought.

"So that hottie's quirk is to transform into other people. Weird." Sero said.

"Trust me, that might not be the weirdest quirk we see today." Y/N swore. 

"No way!" Uraraka shouted, hoping not. 

"I think my torso is bleeding from that bullet that ricocheted." Izuku noticed. A little red could be seen coming through the fabric of his green suit.

"That's not looking good. How close are you guys to passing?" Sero asked.

"I haven't made an elimination yet. But Y/N just needs one more." Izuku replied, rasping. Uraraka suddenly raised her hand, looking like she had an idea.

"Sero and I took down some guys a little while ago. He wrapped them up in his tape, close to here!" Uraraka said.

"Hey, yeah! We didn't have time to get eliminations on them, because we heard your guy's voices and rushed to help." Sero remembered.

"How many people? Maybe we can all pass right now!" Y/N said, excited.

"Nah. It's just a couple of guys from some low ranking school. Only two of us four could pass, by eliminating them." Sero explained.

"You guys should go ahead and pass. Y/N and I can stick around until we get the eliminations we need." Izuku said, sternly.

"No way. You guys are hurt, you should hurry up and pass." Sero argued.

After a short while of arguing, it was eventually decided. Izuku and Y/N would take the opportunity to get the last of their eliminations and pass the exam. The duo left the battlefield with a mixture of guilt and difficulty breathing.
'Uraraka... Sero... I swear, we won't forget your sacrifice. We'll make it up to you guys!' the two thought, in unison.

Meanwhile, Uraraka and Sero would continue to fight for their eliminations, now aided by gear of Y/N's. Alone with Uraraka again, Sero held up one of the several smoke grenades Y/N had left them.

"These things will help us get our eliminations in no time! It's hard for anyone to fight when they can't see." Sero said, confident.

"We should still play this smart and avoid engaging with big groups of enemies." Uraraka said.

It would soon be time for the second and final phase of the license exam. And with each moment, the question of who would and wouldn't pass remained.
