Chapter 19: Support
"Todoroki!" Momo shouted once we arrived.
"Yaoyorozu! Y/n!" Todoroki was all tied up and there were spikes on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't-" Momo began.
"Hey, Mr.Aizawa's coming!" Todoroki interjected. You could tell that Momo was confused as to what she should do and you weren't really helping considering the fact that you were just following her around.
"Yaoyorozu! You've got a plan, right? Sorry, I should have asked earlier if the plan was okay. You have an Idea right?" He asked.
"But your plan didn't work, so how could my idea..." You decided the best course of action was to get the boy down from their first now that you were there.
"It's fine, just spit it out! I'm saying you're the one more suited for this stuff. When we were voting for class rep, you had two votes, right? One of those votes was mine! Because I thought you'd be good at it!" You paused for a second when you heard how sincere and honest Todoroki was being.
"Are you done?" Asked Aizawa leaping over Momo. You finished untying him and held onto the scarf that had him tied but when all of a sudden you heard Momo shout,
"Todoroki, Y/n, close your eyes!" You did as you were told and shut your eyes.
"What are these? Flash grenades??" Aizawa was caught off guard and was affected by the bright light. You managed to get Todoroki down while Aizawa was busy.
"I do have an idea Todoroki. A special operation just to beat Mr. Aizawa."
"A special operation?" He asked.
"Yes, I was actually thinking about this since the beginning!"
"Just tell us the damn plan already!" It was noticeable you were getting impatient. Meanwhile, Aizawa leaped onto a rooftop to gain some distance.
"The aftereffects of USJ decreased the time I can use my Quirk, and an increased interval between uses. Well, If shes attacking because she's noticed that, then she's pretty good." Aizawa commented before attacking with his scarf again. You immediately got behind Momo and Todoroki and held onto their arms.
"Teleport!" You could only remember where you all started, it back tracked you all but thankfully that gave you all a bit of distance. It wore you out a bit more than you thought since you had to teleport two people and on top of that it was pretty far.
"Are you alright Y/n?" Todoroki asked as you tried to catch your breath.
"Yeah, don't worry about me, we need a plan now."
"Mr. Aizawa's eyes have become a bit unstable." Began Momo.
"Because of his injuries at USJ? So we're going to exploit that?"
"No, for now, we must stay out of his field of vision. It's just a matter of time, we can win!" She tried to encourage you both but mostly herself.
"Time? Get out of his field of vision?" Todoroki looked behind you all.
"Why don't you show us that giant Ice wall you revealed us at the sports festival?" You smirked making him mirror your expression.
"Gladly." He lifted his right hand and instantly there was a giant wall in between you and the 'Villain'.
"Now we can use our quirks. Tell me the rest of the plan while we..." Todoroki stopped talking when he saw that Momo was making something come out of her chest. He looked away somewhat embarrassed.
"Is that Aizawa's weapon?" You asked.
"Yes, since you gave me the details of how it's made, it makes it easier. But I added a certain material woven into it." She just kept making more and you were really amazed by her Quirk. "Since this is a residential area, we must keep damage to a minimum. He moves quickly with those restraining bonds, making him hard to catch...This is my plan."
-
"What do you think todoroki? Y/n?"
"I believe this has a higher chance of succeeding than trying to escape from Mr. Aizawa."
"It will be decided in an instant. Is that alright?"
"Yeah."
"No complaints here."
"Alright, then let's get ready." Momo put the black cloak on the mannequin with her under it while you and Todoroki put on the bigger one for the both of you, no mannequin needed. You reached out and held his arm.
"Ready?" You asked, he noticed your hand was shaking and made you let go of him. You felt dejected when he did but then he took your hand in his.
"The faster we do this the faster it'll end." You gave a curt nod and smiled brightly.
"Yeah!"
"Let's go!" Called out Momo and the three of you started rushing out on the sides and immediately caught Aizawa's attention.
"It's true if I can't see you then I can't take away your Quirk but that also has its disadvantages. He lunged his scarf forward and ended up tying up you, Todoroki and Momos mannequin, that's when he noticed Momo was still free.
He could see the small catapult appear but Momo missed the cue making Aizawa leap backward. That fact that you couldn't see anything only made you all the more anxious on top of the fact that Momo hasn't told you anything yet and you could tell Todoroki was getting concerned too, he let go of your hand and quickly made your fingers intertwine. Momo then manages to launch the catapult and,
"Y/n, Todoroki!" You took that chance and teleported You and todoroki behind Aizawa.
"Now!" You shouted and Todoroki had a clear shot to shoot his flames.
"What the hell is this?" Aizawa was completely confused as he looked around, not knowing what was his scarf.
"Have you heard of nitinol alloy? When it's heated, it returns to its original shape in an instant. It's shape memory Alloy!" And just like that, the scarf Momo made contracted and captured Aizawa.
To the ground!
You safely teleported Yourself and todoroki back on the ground. You panted, trying to catch your breath and almost fell but thankfully Todoroki held you up.
"Thanks." You managed to stand on your own and took a few steps to the side.
"It went exactly according to plan but don't you think it went a little too smoothly?" Asked Todoroki.
"Honestly, It's inexplicable. When I was about to launch the catapult, I made a mistake...Mr.Aizawa noticed but still jumped away, even though he could have stopped it in that opening. It looked like he was allowing himself to be taken in by my plan on purpose."
"I was just being careful of Todoroki and Y/n next to you. I could see you, but The two of you had a cloth over you. I thought he'd freez me. So I back off, thinking that was the best course of action, and then played right into your hands." As you kept listening you knew that this wasn't your win, it was theirs, and they deserved this. All of this played out how you all expected because of Momo's strategy and Todoroki's control of his Quirk. You were there as support.
"It really was only a matter of time...like you said, thanks." Todoroki directed his attention to Momo who had a hand covering her mouth as she tried to prevent herself from crying tears of joy. You started to slowly walk away, letting them relish in their victory. They earned this.
"What's wrong, do you feel sick?" You heard Todoroki ask Momo out of concern as you turned the corner.
"I-It's nothing!" She turned away to hide her accumulating tears.
"If you feel nauseous, there's a pressure point on the instep of your foot..."
"I said it's nothing!" You gave out a small chuckle before teleporting over to the waiting room you guys were in before.
"I think you can let me go now." Commented Aizawa.
"Right!"
"Hey, where's Y/n?" Todoroki asked noticing you didn't say anything. Momo finished untying Aizawa and took off the cuffs. He stretched his muscles as he stood up.
"Man, that girls' a handful." Aizawa scratched the back of his head. Momo and Todoroki looked at him confused, waiting for an explanation. "She's probably sulking somewhere."
"Sulking?" Momo questioned.
"Why would she be down if we passed?"
"How do I explain this." He tried to find the words as he applied his eyedrops. "Think of it this way. Ever since you two were in school, you two wanted to be Heros, right?" They nodded their heads. "Well, Y/n, she didn't have that as her priority and now because of certain circumstances, that you both know, she's forced to do something she never even wanted in the first place."
"And on top of the fact that she hasn't studied as hard as we have and we had to rely on her for our final exam..." Momo was beginning to understand.
"Exactly, she must have been wracking her brain to try and help you two pass without her being a burden since she doesn't have any experience in these kinds of things." It was only then that Todoroki understood what you were feeling.
Aizawa dismissed the two of them and they started making their way back. "Looks like Y/n was right." Momo commented.
"How so?"
"Mr. Aizawa really is a softy on the inside. I think it's very sweet how he was concerned about her. Like a parent would." Todoroki didn't give any other comment until they reached the small room where they finally found you, but you were already sitting alongside Izuku.
"Looks like you guys found me." You said with a sad chuckle. "What did Aizawa tell you?" Todoroki simply looked away, not knowing how to go about the situation while Momo rubbed her arm somewhat awkwardly. "Told you guys he's a softy." Izuku lifted an eyebrow. "I'll explain later." You said with a small chuckle.
Seeing you look a bit happier by Izuku's side made something in Todoroki stir, but it wasn't very pleasant. He decided to take a seat next to you even though there were many other seats for him to be at, he felt that there would be best. Momo noticed this with a slight frown but hid it well.
"Are you...feeling better?" Todoroki asked. You were touched by the fact that your friends were concerned about you, so now was the time to put on a strong front, you couldn't have them worrying about you, they needed to focus on their Hero studies.
"Yeah! Don't worry Todo, I'm fine." You smiled. He didn't seem convinced but returned the gesture nonetheless. "What do you guys say about watching the last battles?" You jumped up, changing the subject. "I'm sure you're just itching to see the principal using his Quirk!" You nudged Izuku's side, getting him to show a big grin.
"Race you there!"
"You're on! No Quirks!" In an instant you two were racing down the halls, leaving Momo and Todoroki in the dust. Momo was surprised when she suddenly heard todoroki laugh at your upbeat and spunky attitude.
"We should get going if we want to catch up, right?" She walked over to him and held out a hand. Todoroki's laughter died down and looked at her hand somewhat confused, but he didn't let it show. Why would she offer help to simply stand up? Common courtesy?
He grabbed her hand and let her help him stand up. Her hand lingered on his for a moment longer than he expected but let it slide.
"Let's get going."
