Chapter 7 | Jobs

Momo's Pov.

  They found a meadow type area where they could make shelters. This was when everyone relied on her to have the supplies.

  Sato walked up to her as soon as they got there.

  "Yaoyorozu, I'm guessing you can't tutor me at the moment, but I need your help again when we get back to campus," Sato told her.

  "I can't believe I forgot to think about what would happen to our tutoring sessions once we started camping..."Momo trailed off, "But yeah, same time as usual?"

  "Yes, thank you Yaoyorozu!" Sato smiled at her.

  "My pleasure," she smiled back.

  "Now let's assign some jobs," she heard Iida declare. Momo walked to his side because she might be needed.

  "We'll need a team to find the tents that are out there, we need at least five people," Iida thought out loud. Then he called on people that raised their hands. She almost laughed because it reminded her of Kindergarten when they were assigning jobs like "Line Leader" or "Teacher's Assistant" for the day, but remembered the circumstances and stayed serious.

  "Kirishima, Sero, Bakugo, Todoroki, Sato, and I can go," Iida decided, and then called on more people, "Next, we need a couple people, maybe just today or so to build shelters."

  She raised her hand for this one because she was obviously going to be required. Momo noticed that Mineta raised his hand when she raised her hand and grimaced. She didn't want him to be making shelters too.

  "Tokoyami, Deku, Uraraka, Yaoyorozu, and I guess... Mineta," Iida sighed when he said Mineta's name.

  "Why Mineta?" Momo took a step back when she realized he moved closer.

  "I think that the sticky purple balls on his head might help support the shelters," Iida explained, "My apologies, Yaoyorozu."

  "It's okay..." she sighed.

  But then she heard him mutter, "And he most likely won't volunteer or be useful for anything else..."

  She couldn't help but smile the tiniest bit at that. Momo wasn't sure if that was to make her feel better or if he was just making a side note

  Iida cleared his throat and continued, "Next, we need fishers."

  "Asui, Hagakure, Jiro, and Shoji can do the job," Iida established, "And then Koda, Aoyama, Ashido, Ojiro, and Kaminari can gather things."

  "Why do I have to gather stuff?" Kaminari objected.

  "I did not see you raise your hand for anything," Iida explained.

  Momo walked over to meet up with her group, making sure to stay far away from Mineta.

  "Can you tell us what to do?" Yaoyorozu asked. She knew that one of Tokoyami's skills was building.

  "Why me?" Tokoyami asked.

  "We've all seen you build before," Uraraka recalled. 

  Then they followed his instructions. She already knew that this would be a long day.

Todoroki's Pov.

  He was far from disappointed when Iida said that they wouldn't be in the same group. He was kind of relieved. 

  Todoroki breathed out a silent sigh when he was away from Yaoyorozu.

  "So who are you avoiding?" Sero wondered, walking back to talk to him.

  "Hm?" Todoroki pretended like he didn't know what Sero was talking about. Or that he didn't hear him.

  "Who are you avoiding?" Sero questioned again.

  "I don't know what you're talking about," Todoroki tried to ignore the thought and suppressed his blush. 

  "So you're in denial then, huh?" Kirishima chuckled.

  "I don't understand," Todoroki glanced at them for a second before turning his head forward again.

  "Will you all shut the," a beep sounded, "up? We need to look for these tents because Deku's obviously going to," another beep rang out, "fail them."

  "We're still looking around," Kirishima assured Bakugo.

  They both turned back to him.

  "Yaoyorozu, huh?" Sero figured it out, "You're trying to avoid her after that night a little while back."

  "No," Todoroki gave them an answer. Even though that was all a lie. He was avoiding her.

  "You know what?" Bakugo grabbed Kirishima's arm, "We're going to split up because you," a beep sounded, "won't stop talking."

  He kind of dragged Kirishima away. 

  "We'll meet back here in two hours," Kirishima called to them as he started actually walking.

  "We might as well split up too," Todoroki commented.

  "Good idea," Iida nodded his head, "I will search with Sato and you will search with Sero."

  Iida did the robot hand thing and sliced thin air. It was hard to take him seriously when he did that. 

  Then he realized he was searching with Sero and he couldn't help but feel disappointed. He could've been paired with Sato or Iida, but no. He was paired with the one he wanted to get away from. Well... The one he really didn't want to be in the same group was Yaoyorozu, but he didn't really want to be searching around with Sero.

  "This way," Sero beckoned him. He attached some of his tape to a tree and started swinging away.

  Todoroki used his ice to move across the ground quickly to keep up with Sero.

  He glanced around, avoiding a tree. There wasn't anything the resembled camping equipment at all. Maybe the supplies were just really spread out. 

  He glanced around until he realized that Sero stopped swinging through the trees and slowed to a stop. 

  "Did you find anything?" Todoroki interrogated.

  "Hm... Just this stick. I thought it was something but I guess it isn't," Sero shrugged and then continued to zip through the trees. 

  Todoroki followed, and later they went to meet back up with the group.

  "Find anything?" Sato asked, "The most we found out was that people like littering."

  "Nope," Sero shook his head.

  "We didn't find anything either," Kirishima informed them, walking toward them with Bakugo.

  "Is," a beep sound, "Deku's group our last," another beep rang out, "hope!?" Bakugo shouted angrily.

  "Pretty much the most we found was a stick that would connect to a tent, but there wasn't anything else there," Sero sighed, "I guess we'll just have to rely on what the others made for now."

  "What did you say?" Todoroki turned to Sero.

  "What? That I found a stick?" Sero wondered, "You were there."

  "The part about it being something you could use to put up a tent," Todoroki elaborated.

  "Oh yeah! It was one of those... Like... That you put it in the tent and then secure on both sides," Sero tried to explain.

  "No," another beep sounded from Bakugo, "wonder we couldn't," another beep rang out, "find any! The pieces were," and yet again, another beep, "scattered!"

  "We must go back for lunch," Iida declared, and they all went back to the chosen camping spot.
