THE NEXT DAY

"Wait, wait, wait, wait! YOU GUYS GOT INTO A FIGHT?!" Mina exclaimed in shock as Ken, Katsuki and Izuku vacuumed the common room. "AND NOW YOU'RE UNDER HOUSE ARREST?!"

"That's so dumb!" Denki exclaimed.

"Nonsense!" Yuga added.

"Unbelievable...!" Tenya muttered.

"The pinnacle of stupidity." Fumikage added.

Katsuki growls in frustration as he began to sweep his vacuum faster.

"Please tell me you guys at least made up." Itsuka asked Ken.

"Don't worry, we did." Ken replied. "Katsuki and I are friends now too."

"Wait, really? You and bomb boy? Friends?" Devlin asked in amazement. "Can't really see it, if I'm being honest."

"Dude, trust me. Yo, Katsuki! Tell everybody we're friends!" Ken called out.

"GO TO HELL, KEN!" Katsuki yelled back.

"See? He used my first name and everything!" Ken said to Devlin.

"This is a...Strange friendship." Devlin replied.

"How long are you stuck being a maid for us?" Aoi asked.

"Three days." Ken replied. "Aizawa didn't go easy on me at all."

"You know, you're very lucky that you got away with just house arrest. What you did are grounds for being downright expelled." Aoi stated.

"It won't happen again. Hopefully." Ken replied.

"You'll miss three days of classes." Itsuka pointed out.

"I'll catch up. Anyway, you guys should get to class." Ken replied.

"Bakugo, what are you going to do about the supplementary classes for our provisional licenses?" Shoto asked.

"NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS, ICY HOT!!" Katsuki yelled.

"In that case, we'll leave you to your cleaning! Enjoy, dear maids!" Denki said to the three as he headed out of the dorms along with the rest of the class.

"DON'T YOU DARE CALL US THAT!" Katsuki yelled back.

LATER

Katsuki, Ken and Izuku continue to clean the common room quietly until one of them decides to break the silence.

"...What did you think of my shoot style? Kacchan?" Izuku asked.

Katsuki does not answer immediately as he continued to clean but..."Your wind-up motions are too big. Even though you were fast, I was able to react in time. It not well suited for a slug fest."

"I-Is that so...?" Izuku asked.

"It doesn't mix well with your punches if you randomly decide to throw one." Katsuki added. "Pissed me the hell off."

"...I see...!" Izuku replied as he went back to cleaning with a small smile on his face. He then recalls the events of last night. Specifically when Rath went off the rails. "Ken?"

"Yeah?" Ken asked as he continued cleaning.

"What happened to you last night?" Izuku asked.

"What're you talking about?"

"Last night, you seemed...Feral." Izuku replied.

"Sorry, Rath's DNA tends to do that." Ken replied.

"No, that was different. Rath may make you angry but not enough to attack your own friends. And then there were your eyes..." Izuku stated.
