"I AM HERE- Coming through the door like a normal person!"
All Might?! Why was All Might here?! The answer to Yukino's question came in the form of the days lesson. Apparently, they would be duo a sort of "Hero VS. Villain" scenario. The heroes would either need to capture the villains or touch the "bomb".
"Alright! Let's start with these two!" All Might shouted.
He took out two balls that read A and D.
"Young Yukino! Due to you being an extra student, you may join Midoriya and Uraraka!" All Might explained.
Ah. Guess that means he'll be on separate teams than Iida. Hopefully, Bakugo won't be too much of an issue. Then again....
*
"Okay, out of the two of them, Bakugo is more of a threat when it comes to strength." Midoriya explained.
Yukino rubbed the back of his neck before saying, "Yeah, but knowing Iida, he's not gonna go out quietly."
And that was true. Even if the managed to get him off his feet, he's spent enough time training with Yukino, and working on that. And after observing their interactions, it seems like Bakugo will be targeting Midoriya.
...Wait a minute....
"Hey, Deku? Quick question." Yukino began.
Mido- Deku looked over to him before replying, "What is it?"
Yukino generated the most feral smile he could manage as he began slipping off his gym uniform.
"What size is your hero costume?"
*
Bakugo was going to destroy that bug! Where did he get off hiding his quirk from him?! Did he think he was better than him?! He then paused as he saw the familiar green fabric.
"There you are Deku! When I'm through with you, they're going to be scraping you off the ground for weeks!"
He charged at him, preparing to blast him to pieces. So imagine his surprise when he slipped. On ice.
"Damn. I was worried that with how snug this thing is, I wouldn't be able to move."
....WHAT. Bakugo glared at the bastard. This asshole tricked him. He made a fool out of him!
The mask of the costume was pulled off as a mess of black curls smirked at him.
"But it looks like I had nothing to worry about!" Yukino stated.
*
"Bakugo! What is the situation?!" Iida questioned.
He then glanced up and his eyes widened as he stared and Uraraka and Midoriya. Wasn't the later in his hero uniform earlier?
*
Yukino used his ice to slide down the halls as he dodged Explosions. Bakugo snarled at him as he continued his advance.
"You bastard! You think you're better than me?!" Bakugo yelled.
Yukino seemed to but his hands behind his head before saying, "I mean, I tricked you didn't I?"
He had to resist turning pale when both of the explosive blonde's gauntlets blinked red.
*
Everyone visibly flinched when Bakugo pulled the pin to his gauntlet, sending explosions down the hallway. Ice flooded out at the same time as Yukino propelled himself with Deep Freeze.
"Geez, Bakugo is going nuts. What did Yukino say to him?" Kirishima questioned.
All Might stared at the screen tentatively. Young Midoriya and Uraraka could handle Iida, but Bakugo....
"Bakugo! Pull a move like that again and I'll end the match!", he shouted.
Hopefully, young Yukino could withstand the onslaught.
*
Shit! Yukino wasn't expecting him to actually pull a move like that! And his other gauntlet is still active. His ice was strong, but if he hadn't used that snow as a makeshift barrier, the blast could have killed him! And that's if he wasn't treating this like a real world situation, in which the shrapnel would have taken his arms off!
"Still think you can win Ice Witch? Your pathetic! Just another bug for me to crush!" Bakugo sneered.
Yukino froze the ground as the blonde approached. Not enough to make him slip, but enough to form a mist cloud of some kind.
"Careful man! You could have killed me with that attack!" Yukino shouted.
Bakugo sneered as he began blasting debris from his blast.
"Don't make me laugh! We both know you're stronger than that pathetic Deku! Act like it and stop being a coward!", he yelled.
This was bad. He couldn't hold him off forever, and Bakugo didn't seem like the type to show restraint.
....But that just means Yukino can go all out.
"Okay, Blasty, I've got a question for you!", he said.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME?!"
"How thick are those mittens of yours? Because I would just hate for you to get FROSTBITE!"
The moment Yukino said that, he launched out from behind his cover and grabbed onto Bakugo's gauntlets.
"You shitty extra! What do you think you're-", he began, before noticing the frost spreading over them.
With one quick motion, the bulky weapons shattered, stunning Bakugo with the cold.
"...."
"You can get those replaced, right?"
"...."
Yukino backed up slightly as Bakugo stared at him, his expression emotionless. He didn't break him, did he?
"Uh, Bakugo? You there?", he questioned.
Then the blonde started to laugh. Like, an actual, mentally insane laugh.
"Is this a good laugh or a bad laugh? Because the longer it goes on, the more it feels like a-"
"YOU SON OF A BITCH!"
Yukino didn't even have time to dodge as Bakugo tackled him. Out of the hole in the wall from his quirk. From dozens of feet in the air.
*
"Problem children. The lot of you." Aizawa commented.
Yukino applied ice to his arm as Bakugo looked the other direction, an ice pack attached to his head.
"Bakugo, I'm willing to look the other way, but don't such a reckless stunt like that again. If Yukino hadn't used his quirk as fast as he did, the impact from the fall could have landed you in the hospital." Aizawa lectured.
Yukino grimaced before asking, "Could you see about getting me some cold water? Or some ice to chew on? It's like a sauna in here!"
Bakugo glared at him before asking, "How the hell are you not freezing? I thought you said your quirk went below freezing?"
Yukino shrugged before saying, "My quirk is, for lack of a better term, defective. I can generate ice and withstand the cold without an issue, but the longer I use Deep Freeze, the more my body heats up to keep me from freezing. If I push myself too far, I run the risk of overheating."
Aizawa's eyebrows rose slightly. An ice quirk, but you run the risk of overheating? Odd, why did it remind him of a case from nearly a decade ago?
