All Might shows us where our "bomb" is located and we begin on our way there.

"So, um. What's our plan?"

"We don't need a fucking plan! I'm strong enough to take anyone here on!"

"Oh, ok." I whisper--too scared to say anything louder.

I know I'll never be able to reason with him, so I tap my foot three times every so often to set a trap for when the other team comes looking for the bomb.

"Can you stop fucking tapping your foot?! It's annoying as hell!"

"Oh, sorry. Uh, by the way."

"What?" Bakugou responds, clearly irritated.

"What are the quirks of our opponents?"

" Tch. I don't fucking know."

"What? How?"

"Shut up! I wasn't paying attention to our opponents, that's all!"

"Oh, well. I remember what they look like." I respond quietly. Damn I wish he was more approachable.

"Then spit it out already!"

"Oh, right. Uh, there was a boy with red and white hair,"

"Dammit." Bakugou says under his breath, likely hoping I wouldn't hear.

"And the invisible girl."

"Tch. Well you already know her quirk. But half and half's quirk is fire and ice. Damn icyhot. Why the hell does it matter to you? You don't even have a quirk that can touch people--illusions. Illusions can't fight. How the hell are you going to become a hero when you can't even touch villains?"

I'm about to cry at this point. I really don't know how to respond to him. I can't stand up to him, he's just going to be pissed and I hear that he's one of, if not the strongest member of our class. I clench my fists and bit the inside of by cheek to stop myself from crying.

"I just wanted to help. Don't worry about it, you go on ahead I'm just gonna stay here. Oh, and, don't worry, I won't come to school tomorrow, or any day after that. Don't feel bad, I truly am sorry for bothering you, Bakugou." I say this in a dead tone and turn around and begin walking in another direction. I put one hand up, wave, and say:

"I won't bother you any more."

Bakugou is stunned. He never expected something this to happen, there has always been some sort of snarky comment or shy compliance—never dead, broken responses. He didn't know how to react so he just stayed silent and stared with his mouth agape. I felt his eyes burning into the back of my head, but I stopped caring. I don't care about anything anymore. (quick note: I'm writing you to be this way because this is how I am, pretty bipolar I guess idk lol. I go from anxious to social and charismatic to dead and empty lmao. I'm sorry if you don't like this, I don't know much else how to write a character) I can't feel anything anymore. 

I tap my foot at random times to set up as many traps as possible. I only have a limit to how many labyrinths I can have open at a time, not as many as I can set. There are only three other people in this building, only one—maybe two—are likely to attack the labyrinth—one of them being my teammate—so I should be fine. I wonder if he gets trapped he'll recognize my quirk and not attack. Probably not, he probably doesn't even remember my quirk.

"Ready, begin!"

All Might announced the beginning of the battle trial. I'm standing, leaning behind a corner on the second floor, western wing—the bomb is on the fifth floor, north wing.

I suddenly hear someone. I peer around the corner and see the icyhot guy. He's a few feet away from activating a labyrinth.

One.

"What the hell?!"

Todoroki feels as if he's falling. He opens his eyes and he's falling down a black pit, and various shades of blue, red, and yellow dots begin to appear on the... walls? 

Then some mirrors appear but everytime Todoroki looks into them, he sees a more monstrous and demonic version of himself.

Soon sweets start to appear around him—cakes, cupcakes, lollipops, macaroons, cookies, and any other sweet you can think of. 

He then falls into a creature that looks like:

Todoroki then begins to scream, he fears that if eaten by this thing he will die.

After this thing swallows him, he wakes up in a nice peaceful morning, just walking to school.

(Play from 1:17)

Suddenly Midoriya walks up to him,

"Good morning Todoroki."

Todoroki then forgets where he is, and plays into the tricks of the labyrinth.

Meanwhile...

About a minute after Todoroki got sucked in, I heard explosions—probably Bakugou's quirk, who else's could it be?

Dammit Bakugou. Her quirk in invisibility, she's got no defense against something like that. 

(Another quick note: All Might told Todoroki that he couldn't use the same strategy as last time because of two reasons, 1: it's too easy 2: unfair to the new student who has "less experience.")

(Another note lmao: Hakagure could see where all the traps were because she was also invisible so she was able to avoid all of them and get to Bakugou. Kind of like Toritsuka from Saiki K.)

Back with Todoroki...

Todoroki was about to leave lunch and go to hero training when he suddenly remembered what was going on and that the world he was in was fake. (Time passes differently in the labyrinths if you want it to, but it cannot be enough time to where they could physically grow and mature in a significant way)

The second he remembers this, he awakens in a new environment. He was in a room covered with red scales, and there was music playing, eerily quiet like the volume was turned down or it was muffled—it was building up to something—and then suddenly, he saw it.

(Play this song)

It was there, and it was horrible. It waved the sword like a conductor's baton, like this symphony—this song—was for her, and only her. Anyone else who heard it was instantly swept into the same sea of grief. 

Todoroki was overflowing with emotions. This thing made him feel scared, sad, distressed, and full of despair—like he had already lost (everything). 

Back to you...

It had already been thirteen minutes—just two more to go.

I stand there, counting each individual second that goes by. 

Normally I wouldn't send out Oktovia (the thing/witch in the photo/video) but I couldn't have Todoroki using his quirk, it's possible for him to defeat her—definitely if he used his hot side—but he won't be able to handle her. That scar on is face held secrets—trauma. I'm sorry Todoroki, I really didn't want to hurt you, not like this.

It felt slow and painful, but the two minutes were finally up.

Suddenly, we all hear All Might's booming voice.

"Time's up! Villains win!"

I release Todoroki from the labyrinth. He lands on the ground on his hands and knees. He quickly stands up and wipes away any tears that might've slipped out.

Time skip to after all the matches

I walk up to Todoroki and tap his shoulder.

"Hey, Todoroki?"

"What is it?" He turns around.

"Oh, uh, I just wanted to apologize. I don't have great control over that part of my quirk and I was scared about you escaping my illusion. Again, I'm really sorry and I hope you can forgive me." I bow while I say this, hoping he'll notice how sorry I am and not hold it against me in the future.

"Oh. It's alright. You said that you don't have great control over your quirk." He says this while slightly shuddering—he seems to not believe his words, he still seems upset.

"Thank you so much for understanding, I was worried you'd hate me after that."

"Don't worry about it."

I smile in relief and we each begin on our own ways, but thoughts of doubt continue to linger.

Time skip

Ever since hero training Bakugou's been staring at me all throughout class, it's getting uncomfortable. Why? Does he care about me now? 

The final bell rung and I started on my way home when Todoroki and Midoriya came up to me.

"Hey, wanna walk home together again? And if so can Todoroki come too?" Midoriya asks shyly.

"Sure, and I don't mind. As long as he doesn't." But that last part I said too quietly for Midoriya to hear, but Todoroki heard it loud and clear.

He gave a subtle nod so I started walking and they soon followed.

I'm sorry Midoriya, I probably won't come tomorrow.
