After a few minutes Lena returned along with Toru and Shoji, the latter seemed to be frustrated about something, possibly because of Lena's teasing him along the way.

""LENA YOU WERE AMAZING!!!"" Shouted both Karishima and Ashido with stars in their eyes and big smiles.

"What are they talking about?" said Lena tilting her head to the side.

"About the battle test, you were so MANLY!" Explained Karishima as he punched the air, it seemed that the fight between Lena and Shoji got him a little excited.

Lena didn't know whether to take that as a compliment or an insult, but just let it go... for now. "Yeah well, that worked, but the important part of the plan was done by Toru blinding Todoroki and relocating the bomb."

"AND I AGREE ON THAT YOUNG OXTON!"

From one moment to the next he appreciated All Might in the middle of the conversation, Lena swore he was out of breath for a few seconds. When she regained her poor, frightened soul the first thing she did was....

Shiz... Pam!

"DON'T DO THAT!!!" Lena exclaimed as she tried to kick All Might in the face, Hero Number One simply caught Lena's kick without flinching.

"My bad, my bad" All Might apologized as he let go of Lena's foot. "So as I was saying, what Young Oxton said is correct Toru was a great help to her, after all Heroes can't do everything alone, sometimes they need help from their peers."

All the students nodded at All Might's words except Bakugo who simply gritted his teeth.

"Very well then Young Yaoyorozu, could you give us your analysis of the battle?"

"I don't think I need to, Lena and Toru's team did a great job, either individually or as a team, on the other hand, Todoroki and Shoji's team didn't do so well, Todoroki relied too much on his Quirk and the little information he had about the situation inside the building, besides pushing Shoji away, if he had taken Shoji inside the building they very possibly could have avoided Toru's light and fended off Lena's attacks.... in conclusion they were overconfident" Yao concluded with a calculating expression on her face.

"I-I see, and according to you who would be the MVP of the trial?"

"Of course Lena, she not only came up with a great plan to handle Todoroki but also bought enough time for Toru to regain strength and relocate the bomb to another place" Yao said with her eyes rolling as she looks at All Might, she doesn't know that indeed Lena gave Toru a signal to move the bomb while distracting Shoji, but that doesn't matter, minor details.

"Well it's very nice that analysis and all but... anyone know where there's a place to sleep better? I don't recommend sleeping on the floor, I'd give it a five star" Lena said while scratching her head and smiling softly, even if it seemed like she only slept when she was bored (which isn't too far from reality), in truth she sleeps to minimize Entropic Energy consumption, the battle against Shoji had left her very low on energy... on second thought.

"All Might can I go get something to eat I'm hungry" Lena said as she laughed a little.

All Might just looks at her for a few seconds of silence... "C- Sure! Tell Lunch Rush he sent you from me!"

"Understood!" Lena said in a military salute before turning around and bolting out of the supervision room, ignoring all the shocked looks she was getting.

Slowly opening his eyes she could see an unfamiliar white colored ceiling, she didn't feel like getting up honestly the bed was too comfortable, but she couldn't stay like this all the time

"Ugh...Where..." Looking around Todoroki could see that he was in a medical room, but he couldn't remember-.

"SHIT!" exclaimed Todoroki angrily, Lena had set him up, possibly it was Lena herself with her super speed that knocked him out, without Todoroki noticing the air started to get cold....

"NO SCREAMING IN THE INFIRMARYY!" but a little old lady suddenly appeared and gave Todoroki a good whack on the head with her cane, canceling the cold air he was generating.

"Ugh..." Todoroki groaned in pain as he rubbed his head and turned to look at his attacker.

She was an old woman with the stature of a child, but she emitted a wise and dangerous aura around her.

"Who are you?" asked Todoroki as he rubbed his head.

"My name is Recovery Girl brat, I'm UA's doctor, who knew two people would come to my infirmary in a single day... one of them being a recommended student, that's not a very common thing you know?" Recovery Girl said as she looked Todoroki in the eyes.

"..." Todoroki said nothing and simply got up from the bed, his head still hurt from the blow he received but he doesn't care, he simply walked out of the medical room as he made his way to the supervision room....

I lost... Todoroki thought, just that word sounded strange to him, it was not something he was used to, normally in almost all the battles he had he would win without exception...

Then why did I lose... I didn't analyze my opponents enough?... Todoroki thought as he stopped suddenly in the middle of the corridor, the thoughts were getting more and more confusing and frustrating.

I became confident... I became arrogant and arrogant just because I was undefeated... Todoroki remembered while analyzing his own actions, he became arrogant and confident... just like his father.

Suddenly the temperature dropped a lot and small ice fragments could be seen coming out of his hands and feet, just thinking about that man made Todoroki's nerves activate...

Breathe Shoto... you are not like your father and you will never be... focus... you want to be a different hero than your father... you don't want to be like him... you will be better than him... Todoroki thought as he walked down the corridor again, this time calmer than before.

He went back to analyzing what little he knew about his confrontation.

I was set up... I remember Kyoka said something about not underestimating Oxton's intelligence... Oxton... I may have surpassed you in the Aizawa test, but I don't see you as someone inferior... I see you as someone who is at the same level as me... but it will be me who wins in the end... this is just a lost battle... but it will be me who wins the war... Todoroki thought, without him noticing a small smile appeared on his face.

After a long time, Todoroki Shoto is excited...

After the remaining confrontations ended school and each student started heading home, again, after Momo left, Lena, Kyoka and Toru walked side by side.

"So... did you plan from the beginning that strategy against Todoroki or was it just something improvised?" asked Kyo, she was very happy with today's result, she had managed to win without much trouble thanks to the good combination between her Quirk to locat the enemies and Kaminari's Quirk that electrocuted them until they were knocked out.

"Yeah, I was wondering about that too?" Toru followed her, looking at Lena now she didn't have that calculating and sharp look at all, just a warm and cheerful look.

"Well, I actually thought we lost due to the combination of our opponents" Lena said simply as she yawned, eating and then sleeping for 2 hours was a godsend itself....

"Really?!" Toru exclaimed with surprise in her voice, she was incredulous, with the way Lena handled it it seemed like she had everything under control.

"Yes, Todoroki is very powerful and more so in those conditions, combining Todoroki's ice with Shoji's strength, stamina and intelligence is simply a destructive combo, but they had a flaw, and it was that they both relied too much on Todoroki's Quirk, if Shoji hadn't trusted Todoroki's arrogance and decided to follow him to the bomb room, it would have been Game Over for us" Explained Lena while scratching the back of her head, in fact, if Lena hadn't counted on Todoroki's confident personality their plan would have gone down the drain.

"I see..." Kyo said, as he thought about what Lena just said, he was certainly right, that combo was very powerful, very few combinations of his teammates could stand up to it under normal conditions.

"By the way Kyo, looks like you had a good combo with Kaminari, you looked very lively with him~, Maybe you should have something with him~" Lena said in a sensual and teasing tone, a moment later a Jack shot out towards Lena, Lena simply dodged it while laughing at Kyo's blushing face.

"Take that back! I would never have anything to do with him!" Kyo exclaimed as he tried to hit Lena but she was too fast, so he added the other Jack to try to hit her, but she still managed to dodge them without much trouble.

"Hoho, something with him, so you're available for someone else no~?" Lena said with a teasing tone of voice towards Kyo, she was enjoying seeing Kyo's blushing face, normally Kyo's expression is a prefect poker face so it's really funny to see her making other expressions.

Toru was simply staring open-mouthed at Lena and Kyoka's antics.

"You guys have had an affair before?" Toru suddenly asked.

That made both of them stop and turn to look at Toru with a flushed face.

"Y-You mean if the two of us..." Kyoka said coming out of her daze, for some reason her face turned redder than before.

"Ah, no, no, no, no, no, no, bad choice of words... I mean have you two had any partners before?" Toru quickly corrected himself as he waved her hands trying to clear up the misunderstanding.

"I've never been interested in relationships... I don't know, I just don't feel anything in peculiar towards them, sometimes I've doubted my own sexuality so I'm not clear if I like men or women, or maybe I don't like either of them..." Lena said as she made a thoughtful face she seemed to be thinking seriously about the matter before shrugging her shoulders.

"I see... so you don't know which sex to love... I feel like there's a term for that but I don't remember what it was... oh well, whatever, and you Kyoka?" Toru thought before shrugging her shoulders, her memory has never been the best after all.

"W-Well I've never had a boyfriend... I'm aware that I'm not exactly attractive so..." Kyo said as he rubbed her arm and looked down.

"For the love of... look Kyo you're incredibly cute and attractive in your own way, if people can't see that then they're a blind, got it?" said Lena frankly and sincerely as she tapped Kyo on the forehead by way of scolding, Kyo looked embarrassed by the compliments and tapping she was getting from Lena but did nothing to stop her, unbeknownst to the two of them Toru was watching the exchange with stars in her eyes but decided not to talk about it... for now.

After that they kept talking as they walked towards the bus stop, for some reason Kyoka couldn't make eye contact with Lena....
