Inquisitor

- Chapter: 34 -

(A/N): Hello readers! Normally I update weekly on every Monday, however due to the Corona Virus I have no school currently. As, such I have a lot of extra free time. So, I have decided to update this story more frequently until my school re-opens! I hope you enjoy the extra chapters!

Katsuki raced through the building to try and get to the bomb room. Iida was faster than him and as such he was being left behind in their mad dash. When he was a corner away from the door he heard All Might yell out, "THE HERO TEAM WINNNNNNS!!"

'What?!' Katsuki turned around into the room and saw Izumi with her hand on the bomb and Iida wrapped up in capture tape. 'How did she get here so fast?!'

---

Izumi put on her mask and saw Uraraka get wrapped up in capture tape. 'Okay, Uraraka is out, so I'll need to do this by myself.' Izumi turned and ran around a corner silently and made her way to the closest staircase and hid herself around a corner.

A few moments later Iida ran past her and up the staircase, going so fast he didn't notice her. She used the capture gear to ascend up the staircase, staying below Iida so he didn't notice her. Listening to the noise from his engines she found the room with the bomb.

She walked in and jumped at Iida, throwing in a punch when she was close enough. "Thanks for showing me the way here."

Katsuki walked to the viewing room with Izumi, Uraraka, and Iida. When they entered they stood in a line. All Might stood in front of them with the rest of the class off to the side. All Might smiled at the four students and spoke, "Well, I'd say the V.I.P. in this battle was... Young Bakugou!"

Katsuki looked up at All Might. "Eh?"

A girl with a frog quirk spoke up, "Not Ochako or Midoriya? Even though they won?"

All Might quickly turned to the rest of the class and asked, "I wonder why? Anyone know?!"

A girl with a large and spiky black ponytail raised her hand. "I do. All Might Sensei. It's because Bakugou was the one who made the most concrete plan of action. Every action he took had a purpose, and his plan would have worked on most people. The reason that they failed is that he started to rush when Midoriya disappeared. Iida performed as he should have as well. Uraraka had a lackluster effect overall. With Izumi performing very well in a sudden and drastic shift of power and making it work out in the end. However, if she had taken different actions, or noticed the trap sooner she wouldn't have needed to deal with the change."

The entire class was silent after she spoke, with All Might giving a thumbs up and mentally screaming 'She said it better than I could!!' and breaking the silence. "I-I'd also like to add that Bakugou could have kept a better eye on the field, but... Yes... You're correct."

The four students joined the rest of the class as the next four walked out to their exercise. Izumi walked over to Katsuo, who was watching the boy whose right half was covered in ice on the screen.

Katsuo turned away from the screen to look at Izumi. "You let your teammate get caught in a poorly set trap. You didn't secure both villains and let one roam free. Then to top it off you didn't use your quirk. Overall in my mind you barely get a passing grade." Katsuo then let out a sigh. "But...

"You did a good job." He put a hand on Izumi's head and ruffled her hair.

She covered her head and leaned away from Katsuo, her face growing more red by the second. She looked up at Katsuo with her eyes and said "D-don't do th-that... people a-are watch-watching...."

Katsuo lifted his hand up and tilted his head to the side, a question mark practically floating above his head. Then, a lightbulb. He leaned in close to Izumi, his lips close to her ears as he whispered. "Then... It's okay if no one's watching?"

Izumi's face, despite being so red she looked like a fully ripe tomato, got even redder. So much heat coming off from her face that steam started to come off it.

A few seconds passed as they both stood still. Then, Katsuo reeled back in laughter. "Your! Your fa-! YOUR FACE!! It's SO red!!"

Izumi's blush died down as she started thinking. 'Wait, did he just do that to make me blush? Yeah. That has to be it. He just wanted to make me blush to get a laugh out of it. That's all. Right? Right! Yeah. Yeah...'

Izumi looked at Katsuo hysterically laughing. 'Yeah... that's all.'

Shoto Todoroki stood before the building he would have to enter in a few seconds. He and a boy named Mezo Shoji were on the heroes side, while a boy named Mashirao Ojiro and a girl named Toru Hagakure were on the villain side.

Shoji used one of his duplicated arms to talk to Todoroki. "We've got one on the north side of the fourth floor. The other's somewhere on the same floor... barefoot... the invisible one must be planning to ambush and capture us."

Todoroki walked forward to the building as the practice began. A quick warning to his teammate. "Get outside. it's about to get frosty in here. Our opponents think they're playing a defensive game, but..." He put down his right foot and froze the entire building, encasing it in ice. "That means nothing to me."

Todoroki casually strolled into the building, going straight to where Shoji had told him the people were. He walked into a room and saw the boy with a tail's feet trapped in the ice he made, and the bomb on the far side of the room.

He walked into the room, his pace and style of walking lacking any precaution. He looked at the boy as he passed him, and said "Bring it on. But fighting without the soles of your feet will be painful."

He walked to the bomb and put his right hand on it. All Might echoed through the building announcing the heroes' victory. Todoroki said a quick "Sorry about that." as steam began rising around him as he used his left side to unfreeze the building. He turned to walk out. "We're in different leagues."

Inside the viewing room, Katsuo watched Todoroki use his quirk fully. 'So I was right...' he bent his head down, and without knowing it spoke. The only one close enough to hear him was Izumi. "-he same."

Izumi turned to Katsuo and asked "What?"

Katsuo quickly snapped back to his usual self and gave Izumi a smile. "Nothing! Don't worry about it."

Izumi looked at Katsuo, not believing what he said. But, she nodded her head and said "Okay." trusting him to tell her when he wanted to.

The next two battles didn't have much happen. Compared with the first two they seemed to be what a 'normal' version of the training to be.

Then, It was Katsuo's turn.
