"Yoshi-kun! Let's do our best!" Toru hypes herself up, already thinking of ways of how this Battle Trial will proceed.
Yoshiki just looked around the room they decided to put the nuclear bomb on, it was the top floor of this building. Yoshiki realized that wherever he put it, he was sure that it won't matter either way.
Open room or not, if he was sure about that guy's Quirk, then...
"It doesn't matter."
"Eh?"
"I said it doesn't matter, Toru. Here, take this. Just push this button and it will lengthen into a staff, careful because it produces electricity." he gave the electric staff to Toru and moved to a place with a pillar and practically leaned there, taking the air gun from his back and propping it beside him.
Toru followed him asking what he's doing and that they should prepare but Yoshiki just zoned her out, closing his eyes. Toru felt she was talking to a brick wall but trusted him anyways and just stripped herself of her shoes and gloves and the coat he lent her earlier.
TIME START!
Right as the announcement came, a bone chilling cold seeped into the building. A moment later frost cold crawled all over the building trapping anybody inside and rendering every gadgets Yoshiki put for ambush.
Thankfully, he grabbed Toru on time before her feet could get frozen. As he pulled her aside though, he was left to be partially frozen along the pillar and the floor.
Before Toru could do or say anything, he gestured for her to stay silent and leaned back at the pillar.
Back at the viewing area.
"It seems they're done for, huh?" Asui said while her tongue dangle from the side.
"Yikes, I can't blame him though, that was insane. The whole building basically froze." Kaminari was shivering from the cold even though they are far away from the site.
All Might stayed silent for most part but he too, was worried.
'Is this it for you, Young Hayashi?'
Back at the building.
Several minutes later, Todoroki and Shoji could be seen walking inside the room where Yoshiki was frozen.
Todoroki didn't even look at him and continued walking while Shoji stayed vigilant even with all that.
"I thought you'd put up a better fight with all those words you said earlier but... I guess you're not all that huh?"
"Really? I think I am actually doing pretty good myself." said Yoshiki grinning.
"Acting tough? I actually feel sorry for you." Todoroki stopped and looked at him with pitying eyes.
"Not as much as I do about you." taunted Yoshiki, chuckling when he saw the confused look Todoroki had and continued talking.
"You know, with that burnt face and all. What, can't control your powers?"
"I-" Todoroki was about to say something when Yoshiki interrupted again.
"Or is it that Mommy hated you for having the same power your deadbeat Father had?"
Todoroki's face fell at that, his eyes widening in shock.
'How?' thought Todoroki in shock.
Nobody was supposed to know this bit of the story about their family at all. No one. Yet, how is it that this guy knew?
"How?" Todoriki asked, the temperature of the room dropping further.
"How what?" asked Yoshiki laughing.
Todoroki started walking towards him when Shoji grabbed him by the shoulder.
"Stop! He's obviously making you angry!"
Todoroki all but froze his hand, and continued walking, ignoring Shoji clutching his frozen hand, the frost traveled all the way to his elbow.
Todoroki reached Yoshiki and grabbed him by the neck, activating his ice Quirk, freezing his body whole except for the head, fusing him with the pillar.
"Ooohh, feisty! What's up?" even in such situation, Yoshiki could still joke like this.
Todoroki's grip tightened and he growled.
"How did you know?"
"Well, let's see..." Yoshiki contemplated about it and then he smirked.
"I don't want to tell you."
Todoroki was so angry to the point that even half of his body went up in flames, melting the ice that covered it, showing off the burn he has on the side of his face and the red half of his hair.
"Talk. Or else-" before he could continue, a staff extended from the side and jabbed straight into his neck, flooding him with electricity.
As he spasmed in place, Yoshiki broke through the ice incasing him and blasted him with his air gun. He flew to the far side of the room, smashing into the wall. He slumped back down.
"Whew! That was close huh, Toru?"
"You idiot, you almost died!" said Toru who was close to tears, still holding the staff.
Yoshiki hoisted up the gun on his shoulder looking at Shoji.
"Give up or get beaten, what would it be?"
Shoji shifted glance between him, Toru and the nuclear bomb. With determined eyes, he decided to dash for the bomb.
'One touch is all it takes!'
Yoshiki grabbed the electric staff from Toru and threw it like a javelin. Shoji was left with no choice but to stop to dodge it as one wrong touch could spell his end. This was enough time for Yoshiki to take the time to change the settings of the gun and fired at Shoji nonstop.
Shoji did everything he could to defend but the bullets weren't even real bullets, although the intensity wasn't enough to puncture, probably due to Yoshiki toning it down, the force was still enough to cause a bruising force.
Yoshiki was laughing like a mad man while firing at Shoji who used his tentacle arm to cover most of his body and tried to take a few steps but found that the force was enough to bind him to the place.
Toru took this time to maneuver around and took the staff that Yoshiki threw. She then proceeded to use it to smash into Shoji's guard, electrocuting him on the spot. Of course, Yoshiki stopped firing haphazardly when he saw what she was trying to do to give her space.
TIME'S UP!!! VILLAIN TEAM WINS!!!
"WE WON!!! YOSHI-KUN!!!" she practically threw herself onto Yoshiki celebrating their win.
Yoshiki being the good sport that he was, spun her around while she dangled, laughing loud.
If anyone could see her fully naked, breast practically swaying to the wind, they'd have questioned a lot of things. But since she can't be seen, it just seemed like Yoshiki has finally lost it and was spinning in circles full of smile after murdering two students in a Battle Trial.
This was also what the students watching the spectacle happen was thinking. In their minds, they already put Yoshiki in the category of "Crazy".
---
After this, the medic staff got there and treated the 2 electocuted students. It seemed that Todoroki suffered 5 broken ribs and some of his organs ruptured during the blast. Oops. Shoji was fine for the most part, just crispy and bruised.
Other teams played next. A fight between a bird headed guy named Tokoyami and Asui vs. Kirishima and Sero. The two set up traps around the room they chose to hide the bomb at. It was a spectacle when Tokoyami called out Dark Shadow and had a brawl with Kirishima while Sero provided support. They actually managed to subdue tape Dark Shadow but forgot about Asui who leaped from the top directly at the bomb, winning the battle.
As for the next team, it was Yaoyorozu and Shinso, the guy who replaced Mineta Minoru and was recommended by Aizawa himself. There was nothing special about him except that bandage around his neck and the device on his mouth. Perhaps it is for the style, perhaps it is for his Quirk, nobody really knows.
The battle ended before it could even start, quite literally. They don't know what happened when Jiro and Kaminari suddenly stopped and got apprehended just like that. When asked what happened, they said they heard All Might asking something and when they responded, they couldn't move at all. Yaomomo said that it was actually Shinso whose Quirk was Mind Manipulation, he asked for a megaphone and proceeded to use the device on his mouth whose purpose was to actually copy the voices it has recorded. Due to this, some people became wary of Shinso, while some, like Yoshiki found it to be so cool and asked him to try it on him.
Shinso seemed shock at this, Yoshiki guessed that nobody has ever tried this and guessed that Shinso was probably discriminated against growing up with such a Quirk. Yoshiki decided that they are friends now and Shinso was left with just saying yes.
In the end, Shinso decided to let Yoshiki experience it.
"Who's your Daddy?" "Not you."
The moment Yoshiki answered, his eyes became dull.
"What about now..?" asked Shinso.
Moments passed and then...
"Still not you, hahaha!"
Shinso's eyes widen and asked him how he did it. He just stayed silent, smirking at Shinso.
He tried to let him confess to no avail so he just let him be.
The last team was Mina and Aoyama vs. Sato and Koji. Nothing surprising, really. Team E won because Team F just couldn't handle long term combat, not to mention Mina's acid was just scary to deal with.

Izuku's POV
I don't know where I am right now. All I remember was seeing Uraraka-san, and then Ojiro...
"Urgh"
This place is dark. Just dark. I had been walking here for a long time now.
As I looked around, I saw 8 distinct flashes of light. They seemed to be close yet so far...
I ran and ran and ran toward their direction but I seemed to have never even moved from my spot.
I collapsed to the ground, feeling so week yet I still reached for these lights.
As I started to lose consciousness, I saw one light drifting away from the others as it slowly got closer and closer to me. As it got close, I closed my fist around it and just like that, everything vanished. Light filled up the space, and before I knew it-
"Kacchan..?"
"Izuku?"
"What am I..? Urgh! Why is body so painful?"
"Chill, don't move, you went berserk earlier, don't you remember?"
"N-No..? I remember seeing..."
"Hush, it's fine. I'm sorry, forget it."
I looked at my friend, noticing the negative vibes, and decided to lay back down.
I stared at my palm, the same hand that grabbed the light. I studied it to no avail so I did the next best thing. I slept.
