The Quirkless At U.A. (Student Reader x Aizawa)

Chapter 27.

'Holy fuck, these are heavy...' Despite them being only half of the weights the teachers had on, I was still fighting against these damn things.

"TOKOYAMI!" I grabbed him again, slowly albeit, and pulled him up to an even higher level where the clones would have trouble getting to us.

"What." He asked.

"There's absolutely no point in trying to pick them off one by one. He can just very quickly make a new one to replace it. I don't know what you think that method is going to achieve. We need to take them out all at once, because it'll take him longer to reproduce 30 clones, then quickly go after him from behind." He waited for me to continue.

"I'll take the clones out in one go, whilst you keep fighting them as a distraction. Then at my signal, you will go after him and fight him directly. I'll come in from behind and cuff him. Any objections, or any other ideas?" Tokoyami nodded.

"Sounds good." He shot off, heading for the nearest clone. I pushed my yoyos into my holsters, holding down the 'Invisible' button. Pulling them out, the strings were totally clear.

'Cheers, Hatsume.'

I zipped around the circular battlefield, trying to ignore the dull ache in my arms, wrapping the yoyo around every pillar I saw. Whilst doing this, I took out a few clones so Ectoplasm wouldn't get suspicious. After wrapping my very own glistening spider web, I turned to Tokoyami.

"NOW!" I yanked the strings with all my force, all of the clones getting caught in the web and dissolving. He jumped down to the real Ectoplasm, and started fighting him with Dark Shadow. I surveyed the scene, finding the best way to get down quietly. Stealthily, I made my way to a pillar near him, waiting for an opening, cuffs in hand. In one movement, I ran out and went to cuff his legs.

To my surprise, he turned around and kicked me. Now, this had turned close combat. He was a difficult and fast opponent like this... I kept throwing punches and using my yoyos to fight him, hoping that Tokoyami could at least run. My teammate tried to run for the gate, before a clone stopped him. Seems like he can't make too many clones if he's fighting directly like this.

"Tokoyami!" I threw the cuffs at him, and delivered a huge kick to the head. I wrapped the yoyo around his ankle and swept him off his feet, whilst my teammate quickly cuffed his legs.

"TOKOYAMI, L/N, PASS."

The speech bubble on the sign changed from "Do your best!" to "Pass!".

I breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over to Tokoyami.

"See? That weren't so hard, was it?" I smirked, holding out my hand.

"It looks like I underestimated you. I apologise for getting upset because Aizawa-sensei removed the handicap for you. Well done." He obliged, shaking my hand.

"You know, you're a strong fighter. It wasn't just for me."

He nodded, happy with the outcome of the fight.

As soon as I was home, I fell onto the couch out of exhaustion. Kuro jumped up and nuzzled against my head, begging for pats and scritches. Like always, I complied. Aizawa came through the door not soon after.

"A. I. Za. Wa." I called him, my head still pressed against the cushion.

"Hm?" He said, setting the keys down.

"Why would you do that to meeeee? He was so quick..." I whined.

"Okay. Why do you think I did that?" He said, walking to the kitchen.
