In the moderating room
Thankfully no one saw Catarina's left eye. Everyone was speechless. Catalina stopped struggling and looked at the screen with a unreadable expression. "You did it... Hero team... Wins!" All Might shouted. "Your indoor combat training is over."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With Izuku, Catarina, Katsuki, Uraraka, and Tenya
Uraraka slid down the 'weapon' and on to the ground nauseated. "Are you okay?!" Tenya asked the girl panicked and frantically waved his arms. Catarina looked up at Katsuki with half-lidded eyes and a smile, "I'm okay though. This is training so people are bound to get a little hurt. So don't beat yourself up over it." The pale boy looked at the girl, 'How can she still smile? After all I've done to her, she continues to smile! I can't be was the cause of her blindness! ' "Hey, I think I'm going to take a nap right here." said the gold eyed girl before passing out. the ash blonde and greenette looked at the girl in shock as she went limp in Katsuki's arms.

"What a weird way for this to end. The losers are practically untouched and the winners are on the ground." "How does the old saying go? 'They may have lost the battle, but they won the war.' " "This class is intense...Kero." (Y/N), Denki, Kirishima and Sero noticed the lack of movement from underneath them and looked at the younger twin cautiously. In the blink of an eye Catalina was beside All Might and punched him in the arm making him flinch, shocking everyone. She glared up at the bunny haired hero, "I thought I told you to stop the match! Now look what happen!" The younger sister glared up at the hero one last time before walking to the other side of the room.

In the building with Izuku, Catarina, Katsuki, and All Might
Catarina was laying on a stretcher, a peaceful expression adorning her soft features, that the two small robots were pushing. "To the nurses office." "I know, I know." "Young Midoriya, go have Recovery Girl fix you up and keep Young Seragaki company for a little while." said the blonde pro hero to the greenette, who in return nodded his head and began his journey to the nurses office. All Might looked back at Katsuki who was shaking. 'My attacks... Deku and Neko~chan predicted them. He made me look like an idiot in front of not only Neko~chan but in front of the whole class and somehow managed to win the exercise.' "You've always been stronger Kaachan, can't you see? That's why I wanna beat you, because you're amazing!" The crimson eyed boy clenched his right fist and began to hyperventilate. 'I'm the reason Neko~chan is half blind and I ended up hurting her again... Does this mean if we really fought... If we didn't hold back at all... If Neko~chan didn't get hurt... Deku and Neko~chan would beat me with their quirks?!' All Might placed his hand on Katsuki's shoulder, causing him to breathe normally again. "Cool your jets Young Bakugou. Let's go review your work. Whether you win or lose, you can always take something away from an experience like this. As long as you're open to listen."

In the moderating room
(Y/N) P.O.V.
I got off the floor and walked next to Catalina, who was more quiet than usual. "Well despite the results, there are two MVP's of this exercise and it is Young Iida and Catarina~chan! But since she isn't here, she'll receive her results later." All Might said. Tenya and several others gasped in shock, "Huh?!" "Wait, why was Iida MVP? I mean I understand why Seragaki was since her team won." Tsuyu asked. "Vaild question. Why did I choose him? And I didn't choose Young Catarina~chan because she won, there was a different reason as to why I picked her. Would anyone like to answer?" I raised my hand unknowingly at the same time as the girl with the awesome looking ponytail. The girl must've noticed, "You can answer." Nodding my head at her as if saying 'Thank you', I began to speak, "Uncle M, I can tell you why. Tenya~kun and Catarina~chan both embraced this challenge. They were the only ones who truly adapted to their assigned roles. I'll explain. Baku~kun's judgement was clouded by a personal grudge against Izuku~kun, as he pointed out. Launching a large scale indoors was a foolish move. It could have been disastrous. Similarly Izuku~kun's plan was also poorly thought out, considering the amount of damage he received. Thus rendering his-self useless, not very smart. As for Uraraka~chan, she let down her guard mid-battle and her final attack was far too reckless, given the hypothetical stakes. If she were to treat the weapon as though it were real, she would have never risked using such a imprecise move. Tenya~kun was fully prepared for his opponents arrival. He had a strategy and never lost focus on his mission to protect the fake weapon even though he was foiled in the end.-" I saw tenya blushing with a hand to his chest. He looked as if he were on cloud-nine. "-And last Catarina~chan, she may have been a bit reckless but she tried to keep the casualties to a minimum and preventing any unnecessary fight. She went past her limits to ensure everyone's safety even though she was injured. Catarina~chan knew that she had to stay focus on the mission because she knows that the minute she lets her guard down or looks away, things can take a turn for the worse. just like Tenya~kun, she had a strategy and rarely lost focus. Technically the hero team won, yes, but Izuku~kun and Uraraka~chan took advantage of the fact that this was training and didn't respect the spirit." Once I finished, I noticed that everyone was looking at me impressed by my explanation, Tenya was in tears and All Might was left speechless.
