"And your opponent...-"
A shadow of a figure fell from the sky in front of us, the figure towering before us as we looked up at it, only to have the feeling of dread to swarm in my stomach at the realisation.
"Will be, me!"
That person was All Might, his signature smile present and mocking the three of us.
'I can already hear my bones breaking from the sheer pressure...!'
Sitting in an empty bus with the exception of both Midoriya and Bakugo along with All Might towards the exam centre in tense silence was definitely not what I had in mind.
Especially when the two boys sat as far from each other as possible with myself in the middle of it.
"We are so screwed..." I muttered, sweat-dropping at the blonde next to me who merely stared out the window with a scowl on his face.
"Could you at least try and work with me this time, Katsuki?" I asked, making said boy turn to me with a glare, scoffing then snapping his attention back to the window.
"Or not..."

"Now, this is where we will fight." Standing before us, was one of the giant training grounds in the school campus, the artificial cityscape surrounded with high walls that we stood outside of.
"Um, 'fight'? You can't expect us to defeat you. No matter what we do, that'd be impossible!" Midoriya worried, his expression frantic while myself and Bakugo stood in silence.
"Pessimistic and impatient, I see! Allow me to explain." All Might started, giving the lay-down of the particulars of this Practical Exam.
We'll have a thirty-minute time limit to finish this test or we fail. The way of 'battle' and winning is by successfully cuffing our paired teachers with a pair of handcuffs provided for us. Then there was the way of 'escape' and winning, where all we have to do is evade the teacher and get to the escape point at the end of the centre.
And if we fail at cuffing or running away, then we fail altogether.
"Seems easy enough, don't you think?" My tone was dripping with sarcasm, doubting the simplicity of this test, the heaviness of my dual swords suddenly very aware on my back.
"That's why we had the Support Course Department make us these! Ultra Compressed Weights!" Taking out a couple of small black circular rings, All Might starts to attach two onto each limb, saying how this would slow down his movement by a whole fifty-percent.
"Trying to bring this fight down to our level or something? That's insulting." Bakugo spoke up, earning himself a smack upside the head from me, causing him to yell at me.
