Team B vs. Team I

The situation is that the villains have hidden a nuclear weapon somewhere in their hideout and the heroes are trying to dispose of that. The heroes need to catch the villain or get the nuclear weapon back in the allotted time. The villains need to protect the nuclear weapon for the whole time or catch the heroes.

Teams and opponents were determined using lots and Y/N got into Team I with Ojiro and Toru. Midoriya got into Team A with Ochaco and Y/N couldn't help but tease him a bit about their partnership.

"Oh Midoriya, I have to remind you that you can't just abandon your work and go on a date with Ochaco okay?" Y/N grinned.

"I knew it, I was waiting for your comment Y/N. That's exactly what was missing from all this."

"Oh yeah, and on a serious note, I know she has an amazing body but you shouldn't get distracted."

"Oh shut up, you are with Ojiro and he's half naked. I think you are the one who should worry about distractions, Y/N."

"Oh my god Midoriya, how rude!" Y/N furrowed her brows but soon turned her expressions back into a smirk, "Just because Toru is invisible doesn't mean you exclude her out of our team."

The teasing wouldn't have stopped if All Might didn't announce the opponent teams. And the first teams were - Team A, consisting of Midoriya and Ochaco on the role of hero and Team D, consisting on Bakugou and Iida on the role of villains. No doubt in it, Midoriya and Bakugou were both glaring at each other.

"Everyone else except the participants head to the monitor room." All Might said and everyone started going back. Y/N stopped between the two and said, "Remember this is a combat training. Best of luck." She looked at both of them and then ran to join the rest of the class.

[ TIME SKIP ]

It was painful to watch two of Y/N's friends fight each other like that. Although she warned them before the fight, she knew no one can stand in between Bakugou's grudge against Midoriya. That blond's pride was to high to even consider Midoriya his friend. For someone who always got thrown around by Bakugou, Midoriya no longer accepted defeat and finally decided to stand up to him.

The fight went out of hands and although most of the students were waiting for All Might to stop both of them, as it looked like their fight could've killed either one of them, All Might waited it out and in the end announced Team A - the heroes as the winner. And as it looked like on the monitor, Midoriya used his brains and won the fight in the last second.

Ofcourse, he had to be hospitalized and in need of medical attention while All Might went to the building to take rest of the students back. Bakugou never looked this angry before. And not just figuratively speaking, he was actually shaking in anger. But All Might put a hand on Bakugou's shoulder and spoke something to him, that atleast made him get back to their current situation.

Y/N was worried - for both of them. She wasn't much worried about the physical damage, she knew Midoriya was a strong guy now. But what she was worried about was the mental damage. And watching the monitor throughout their fight she knew what kind of conversation they must have had. And it was pretty evident how much it affected Bakugou more than Midoriya.

As soon as Ochaco, Iida and Bakugou gathered in the monitor room, All Might spoke up, "Despite the results, the MVP of this exercise is young Iida!"

"Shouldn't it be one of the heroes since they are the winners?" Tsuyu asked.

"Hm..valid question. Why didn't I choose one of those two? Who has a guess?" All Might asked and not even a second later, Momo's hand shot up.

"Sir, I can tell you why." She explained, "Iida embraced this challenge. He was the only one who truly adapted to his assigned role. Bakugou's judgement was clouded with personal grudge against Midoriya. As you pointed out earlier, launching a large scale attack indoors was a foolish move and it could've been disastrous. Similarly, Midoriya's plan was also poorly thought out, considering the amount of damage that he received. As for Uraraka, she let her guard down mid-battle and her final attack was far too reckless, given the hypothetical stakes. If he treated the weapon as if it were real, she never would've used a imprecise move. Iida was fully prepared for his opponent's arrival - he had a strategy and never lost sight of his mission to protect the dummy weapon, even if he was fooled in the end. Technically, the hero team won, yes, but they took advantage of the fact that this was training and they didn't respect the spirit of the trial."

"All right. Time to blow this joint! Let's move on to the next match. Think about everything you saw and discussed to tackle this training yourself." All Might said.

"Yes sir!" Everyone said.

Y/N noticed Bakugou standing quietly behind all the students with his head down and an expression she never saw on him before.

"H-Hey.." Y/N started speaking but immediately got shot down by him.

"Shut up. Just..shut up." Bakugou said, his voice shaking in anger.

Y/N admitted defeat and went to Battle Building B for her match.

Team I, including Ojiro, Toru and Y/N were the villain team while Team B, including Todoroki and Shoji were the hero team. They were all standing onto their positions when they finally heard the siren make a sound.

"Hey Ojiro!" Toru said taking off her gloves, "Let's get serious. I'm gonna take of all my clothes and totally disappear."

"Okay cool." Ojiro said.

"Uhh..just don't look okay?" Toru said, clearly in a shy tone.

"What's the difference?" Ojiro asked.

"Okay," Y/N started talking, "You two fight in defensive style and I'll handle the offensive style. I think they'll just assume we will fight in defensive style. And we don't know much about Todoroki's fighting style either. So, be prepared. Protect the weapon and I'll try to stall them as much as I can."

As soon as she finished talking, she felt the temperature get low and the whole building got covered in ice.

"Shit." Y/N said and looked behind her watching her two partners stuck.

"Ow ow ow! My feet are stuck!" Toru said.

"This quirk is insane!" Ojiro said, trying to get out.

Soon they heard footsteps and Todoroki came in saying, "Try as much as you want but you don't wanna fight me with no skin on the bottom of your feet."

"You spoke too soon." Y/N replied throwing a blast of water towards Todoroki who dodged it immediately. As she inherited the mixed quirk of both of her parents, she can change the temperature of her quirk like the way she wanted.

Y/N then proceeded to fight Todoroki with her quirk and he froze every one of her attack. But she was quick on her steps so Todoroki got hit at times and he didn't realize when he started backing off as she increased the speed of her attacks. He didn't even get the time to hit her back while trying to dodge her attacks.

"Come on," Y/N said blasting off hot boiling water to his feet, trying to slip him off, "You're not even trying."

But it became harder to stall him when Shoji joined the fight. Y/N wasn't that dumb, she knew it would be hard to keep both of them occupied. So she occasionally blasted hot boiling water towards Ojiro and Toru's feet, trying to melt the ice while blasting water towards the hero team. And trying to control both sides, Y/N became harsher with her quirk and all the water blasts that she shot at her opponent team were like whip lashes. She knew she was getting tired as she started breathing heavily.

Seeing her tired demeanor, Todoroki dodged her attacks and slid towards the weapon using his ice quirk. And, trying to stop him, Y/N got distracted and blasted a huge gush of water towards Todoroki.

Then they heard the siren along with All Might announcing, "The hero team wins!!"

Y/N was too late and realized in the short amount of time that she got distracted, Shoji took the opportunity and touched the weapon. Ojiro and Toru stood dumbfounded by the situation while Y/N slowly started getting angry - on herself and her team.

"Did you guys even try to get out?! Just because I was stalling them doesn't mean I had it under control. I'm pretty sure I melted a bit of ice around your feet. The least you could've done is to try and get out when Shoji was running towards the weapon!" Y/N huffed and sat down on the ground, trying to catch her breath.

There was a steam and Y/N observed Todoroki melting all the ice. He said, "It's not your fault. We are just playing on different levels."

"Different level my ass. All you did was dodge my attacks so don't even talk about levels here Todoroki." Y/N said, her voice laced in anger as she exited the room and went to the monitor room with others.

When Y/N came in and everyone appreciated her about how she stalled and fought against two of them alone, she didn't respond back. She just looked at Bakugou who was looking down at the ground, just like he did before she left for her combat training.

"So this is how it feels to lose it at the last moment, huh?" Y/N muttered to herself and then chuckled bitterly looking at Bakugou, "This makes the two of us then."
