"Alright. Time for the Practical Exam, everyone." Aizawa stated. "You'll be in groups of two and going against non other than the teachers of UA."

"Mr. Aizawa? What about Hino? There's twenty-one of us." Kirishima spoke. I smiled at him and my tail wagged. He's the manliest in the class. If I didn't have Katsuki, he'd probably be the one I fall for.

"Heh... We already thought that through. And so, that starts the announcement of your teams. Hino Akuma, Izuku Midoriya, and Katsuki Bakugo are team one." I widened my eyes. Everything would have been fine if it was just me, Deku, and someone else, but with Katsuki?! I looked over to see Katsuki staring down Deku, who just seemed concerned.

"Katsuki, don't do anything stu—" I reached out for him to stop him from doing anything, but he just walked away. "—pid... Ugh, sorry, Deku..."

"No, it's fine... He was always like that, remember?" I sighed, acknowledging he was right and followed him to watch the fights. First up was Kiri and Sato VS Cementoss. Something told me it wasn't going to last very long...

"You think he wants to talk strategy?" I turned to Deku.

"I don't really think..."

"Yeah, right... 'Damn Deku' heh... Maybe I can talk some sense into him."

"Given you two seem pretty close, I think that might work. We're up against the number one hero and without a plan, it's hopeless."

"Yeah... I'll be back. Let me know if I missed something bada** yeah?" I laughed walking out.

"Sure thing!"

. . . . . .

"Katsuki Bakugo!" I shouted. He kept walking. "Oh come on.." I ran ahead and caught up to him before jumping in front of him with my arms out. "You're not going anywhere till we talk." He gave me a 'tch' and tried walking around me. I snarled and grabbed his wrist tightly. He looked at my eyes, which were now golden with slit pupils.

"I don't want to work with that—"

"Damn Deku." We both said.

"Yeah, I know. But we don't have a choice, do we? We're against ALL MIGHT. We need a plan or we lose. And I don't think you want that..." He narrowed his gaze, making me slightly unsheathe my claws. "Don't... argue with me, Katsuki...." I pressed. He winced softly as my claws just barely pierced his skin.

"Tch... I won't... But know that me and Deku are never going to talk strategy.."

"Then at least tell me your plan." I released my grip on his wrist, hiding my claws and gazing at him, my eyes returning to their original color.

"What other plan would I have? Of course we beat him head on!" He raised a fist in my face. I growled softly.

"Okay, one, you're an idiot."

"WHAT—"

"Two. All Might is mega strong. You, of all people should know that. Deku does and he is currently analyzing everyone else's battles while preparing for ours and we aren't."

"And why do I care what damn Deku is doing?"

"Because he's smarter than we are and this is why! You're so focused on what Deku is doing that whenever he's around, you don't even acknowledge my existence." 

"Because you're mine! He needs to mind his damn business and f*** off!"

"MAYBE YOU NEED TO GET OVER WHATEVER THE HELL WENT DOWN BETWEEN YOU TWO. HE'S THE ONLY FRIEND THAT STAYED WITH YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING ASIDE FROM ME. EVEN AFTER ALL THE SH** YOU DID TO HIM, HE NEVER LEFT. HE'S BETTER THAN ANY OF THOSE 'FOLLOWERS' YOU EVER HAD!! Tch... maybe once you realize that and f***ing apologize for once, I'll talk to you again..." It hurt having to say it, but what else am I supposed to do? He's gotta get over that stupid rivalry with Deku one way or another. He watched me walk away, my ears flat and my tail low, fists clenched and eyes shut. But as I left to actually formulate a plan, I heard a soft snarl and what I can only understand as a declaration of war...

".....Deku..." 

A/N: I know I could have done more with this, but I'm planning on making this a three-part thing, given so much happened in the exams and how much Katsuki would have to go through with Hino, so you could call this a rushed chapter or something. I think I also just wanted something to post today. (I already have almost 40 reads! Tysm you guys!! <3) I will try to have part two out within the next couple days, if not, I apologize, and I hope you guys are liking this so far! Despite me just diving into the drama because of my need for plot TwT And of course, what do you guys think is gonna happen next, eh? I'd love to hear your theories!
