AN: I skipped some of Izuku's development (because this story is about you!) so he's not as self-destructive. Anyway! Continue :)

The city simulator was nothing new, but the silence always set you on edge. A "villain" could show up from behind any of these tall buildings. Knowing who you were facing made you even more anxious. Todoroki and Bakugo? Was that even fair?

You and Midoriya planned on locating Jiro as soon as possible, knowing she would be fantastic at locating the villains. Together, you and Midoriya were hurrying through the streets, keeping to the shadows as much as possible, to avoid alerting anyone.

"Who do you think the pairs are?" you asked, "As far as villains go?"

"No idea, but it's not going to be easy that's for sure..."

Quirk-wise, you were both tanks. Interesting that Aizawa put the two of you together. There had to be a reason, you wondered. You were about to leave the alley you two were hiding in when something spooked Midoriya.

"Wait," he said.

"Already?" you asked. How had you run into someone so soon? "Are they on our side?"

Midoriya stuck his head out just the tiniest bit when gigantic ice spears shot towards him, "NOPE!" he squeaked.

"Todoroki?!" you grimaced.

An ice wall formed right in front of you, blocking the two of you into the alley and away from the street. Not the move that you were expecting. You prepared to knock it down with a powered-up punch, but Midoriya hadn't moved.

"What is it?" you asked.

"He missed us on purpose, only blocking us..." he muttered, "Is that part of their objective? He seems like the type to fight head-on... Who is his partner? What's their strategy? Where is their hideout? Why would he be on the streets out in the open?"

"Izuku!" you shook him by the shoulders.

"Sorry!" he said frantically.

"Hey, cutie!"

Another voice came from behind you. A boy in all black and thick yellow hair was sporting a wicked grin.

Denki!

"You should really watch your step - it's about to get lit!" he declared.

Your heart dropped. Beneath you and Midoriya, a large puddle had formed, flooding the alley and creating an electrifying death trap. It must've been Todoroki. He could melt his ice faster than the sun could. The wall was still present behind you, forcing you to face Denki, or test your speed in escaping.

You might survive it, but Midoriya...

"Get out of here, Izuku!" you said, "I've got this. Get Todoroki."

"Yeah, Izuku, we want some alone time!" Denki waved at them with sparks filling his palm.

"We're teammates, (Y/N)! Let's stick together," Midoriya insisted.

You groaned. If you argued you would both get fried and lose! You gave him a quick nod, before charging at Denki. Midoriya was able to leap upwards, using incredible strength in his legs, just in time to avoid the shocking blast.

You, on the other hand, kept moving forward. The sparks stung your skin, like a million needles jabbing you, but they quickly turned into storable energy.

"What the!" Denki panicked.

With a loud cry, you drove your fist into the ground, creating a fissure that sent Denki flying. He landed hard on the concrete with a dazed look on his face. You beamed, feeling positive about the test, now.
