Chapter 40: Operation B

The stage was lit up, the crowd was going wild. We'd just finished our main performance, and an encore was pretty much the only option.

The spotlight was on Jirou and I now, and I put my fingers to good use, putting everything I'd learnt over the past month to practice.

With Jirou's beautiful singing voice, the slight mess ups I made were completely covered over, and we finished the song and the performance on a high note, no pun intended.

Every bit of my anxiety and paranoia had pretty much melted and faded away to the back of my mind at this point, everything had gone perfectly.

Other than me injuring my friend and having a mental breakdown, but forget that, that's in the past we're moving on now. Mirio was fine anyway, a quick visit to Recovery Girl and he was... Mostly fine. He needed some rest is all.

Midoriya had almost let us down but we didn't realise obviously that he'd ended up meeting Gentle and La Brava on his way back, so we forgave him of course.

" The weirdo on the internet? Glad you stopped him, if he made it in all our hard work would've been for nothing... " I said to him afterwards, before Class 1-B's performance started.

" Oh, it's nothing really. There was no way I was going to let him get onto campus! If not for you guys, for Eri! " He replied.

It was nice to see him with some confidence finally. I probably could have helped him a little more boosting his confidence, Yaoyorozu too, but of course we didn't exactly have all the time in the world to hang out.

If it weren't for all the villain attacks I wonder how our school lives would've turned out. Maybe Monoma wouldn't be such a jerk! Maybe Gentle wouldn't have targeted U.A.

" It was really nice to see her smile, she's really cute. " Tsu said as she stood beside me as we all cleaned the stage.

We finished cleaning up relatively quickly, and sat down to view 1-B's performance of Romeo, Juliet, and the Prisoner of Azkaban: Return of the Kings. What the hell was this crap?

Surprisingly, it was actually good. Really good. Was it dumb? Oh yeah absolutely. But it was entertaining for sure, even gripping at times. And their effects department wasn't something to sniff at either.

Afterwards, when they were finished cleaning up, I walked up to them to congratulate them all on their performance. Pony ignored me and kept her distance. Fair enough.

" Oh? What's this? One of Class 1-A's top students is complementing Class 1-B, the inferior class? " Monoma goaded.

I smiled at him, " Well thank you for saying I'm one of the top students. " His smirk disappeared as he realised he accidentally complimented me.

" Second, never once have I thought your class to be inferior, nor have any of my classmates. Well, maybe Bakugo, but he thinks everyone is inferior, not just you. I actually wanted to talk to you Monoma. "

He narrowed his eyes at me and crossed his arms, " About what? You never talk to me. "

I resisted the urge to flame him for being unapproachable and continued, " It's been bugging me about those villains recently, the Sinister Six. I've honestly been really scared that they're going to attack us any day now.

They hate me. A lot. And as I was thinking about what I'd do, I thought of our volleyball game. You copied my quirks and dominated my team. I know you don't like us, and that's fair enough, you got a very bad impression of us when you met us.

But even if we don't like each other, working together only makes sense. If we ever get cornered, the two of us alone could defend against the Six. In fact, we should train together soon, you using my quirks, and teleporting around.
