Chapter 12: The Aftermath

Notes:

The very much delayed finale! Thanks to everyone for your kudos and comments on this story! And don't worry, Dark Shadow finally gets his lollipops in this chapter

Chapter Text

Aizawa strolled out of the front gate with Tokoyami and Ojiro and motioned for them to have Swap switch their Quirks back before joining the the rest of the students as they grouped around him to hear the results.

"The rest of the teachers, Swap, and I will stay out here to evaluate all the teams' performances. You can all go back to class, good job everybody. Iida, make sure everything stays under control."

"Yes sir!" Iida yelled back, and the class turned to flock back to the classroom, chattering amongst themselves all the while.

Once back at the classroom, they realized that Aizawa hadn't actually told them to do any assignments, and all the teachers they had classes with were still outside doing evaluation. They took this to mean they had a rare moment of free time, which was how chaos ensued.

The first Thing that happened was that Dark Shadow whirling on Tokoyami. "You promised!" They shrieked.

Tokoyami gave his Quirk a cold look. "Yes, yes, don't whine about it."

The rest of the class looked on, amused, as Ojiro started to laugh to himself and Tokoyami pulled a bag of lollipops out of his bag, holding out a couple for Dark Shadow. They stared at the offering for a moment before taking them and retreating to behind Tokoyami to enjoy the treat.

Tokoyami raised an eyebrow as he realized the class was staring at him. "We had an agreement," he said as way of explanation.

"Of course," agreed Shoji.

"Yaoyorozu?" Kirishima asked from across the room.

"Yes?"

"How do you open a coconut?"

She was silent for a moment. "I don't actually know."

"Why do you need to know- oh." Kaminari started to ask, but the fact that Kirishima was actually holding the coconut explained it pretty well.

"Do you think I can smash it?" He turned back to Yaoyorozu, curiosity glittering in his eyes.

"Maybe."

"Shoji, want to hold it?"

"Sure." The multi-armed student held the coconut steady as Kirishima activated his Quirk.

"Three, two, one, smash!" He brought his arms down on the coconut, and it broke, splashing he and Shoji with milk.

"I thought that was my line," Midoriya said as Kirishima wiped the milk from his eyes in confusion.

"I guess so. Yaoyorozu?"

She was already handing him paper towels. "You guys are making so much of a mess."

"Isn't that the point?"

"Definitely not."

"Hey Jirou! Sero!" Bakugo yelled. "Did you figure out whose keys those were?"

"They're Mic's!" Jirou reported, a wicked smile on her lips as she swung the keyring on her finger.

"We could break into Aizawa's room."

"We will not do that!" Iida yelled. "Not only would that be a terrible invasion of privacy-"

"Can I ride your bike then?" Mina interrupted.

"What? Not in the classroom."

"Sero! We're going out the window!" She chirped.

"NO!"

The crazy ideas of the students, held back only by a desperate Iida and a responsible Yaoyorozu, continued for a good more ten minutes. Thankfully, Aizawa appeared before Bakugo could murder anyone.

"We've decided the winning team."

Everyone went quiet, and slid into their seats.

"Congratulations to Kirishima and Yaoyorozu. You had the best show of cooperativeness as well as ability to use the other person's Quirk. Your speed was a bit lacking, but it was slight enough that we decided to reward you anyways. You both get a free pass on a minor test in the future. The rest of you did well for the most part, and Swap was surprised at how well you all handled it. Use this experience to learn to work together and deal with unplanned changes during missions. We've discussed doing this again, but with battle training. If we end up doing it, well, you'll know." Aizawa gave a wicked grin. "Class dismissed, go study."

"Yes sir!"

The students began to rise, congratulating Yaoyorozu and Kirishima and talking amongst themselves before Aizawa raised his voice once more.

"Please leave the items you retrieved here. Mic wants his things back. Except the lime, he said you can keep that."
