- What are we going to do? - I looked around for a way around, but of course there wasn't one - the entire test site was one solid, bubbling sea of cement.
- Hmm. - The girl crouched down, touching the surface, and her hand plunged effortlessly into the cement, as if into water, - maybe I should make myself weightless and run fast? - That's not a bad plan, but it would be slow and the distance would be too long. Plus, that way we'd split up, which isn't good.
- I have a similar idea, but a little better,' he flashed a flame at himself. - make yourself weightless and cling to my back - we'll fly through this sea of death!
When the girl complied with the instructions, we started moving. I did not dare to pick up the pace from the start and, as it turned out, not in vain. Having overcome a third of the distance, from the turbulent sea, obstacles began to surface on us, but it was quite easy for me to dodge them.
- If it goes on like this - it will not be so difficult - I looked at the girl, who, at my remark, smiled sweetly, but at that moment, from the sea began to grow a huge something.
- Looks like we're in trouble! - The girl squirmed as a huge cement giant formed right in our path and raised its hand to strike.
I don't even know who's bigger, this behemoth or Lady Mountain. Pondered, accelerating, and barely managed to get out of the line of impact, but thanks to this, was able to gain speed from the flow of air that created, flying past the giant's huge fist.
- I'll have to get closer to him, - turned to the girl, who with open mouth watched the consequences of the blow - with one attack, he created a local tsunami - what a horror! - If I squeeze out maximum speed every time to dodge, we won't make it to the gate.
- Okay. - The girl nodded, regaining her concentration.
Thanks to the proximity, the giant could not target us and just waved his hands, trying to catch us, but in the meantime, we have already managed to overcome half of the way and began the most unpleasant stage - we need to break the distance and get under a direct blow.
- Listen, Ochako,' I decided to share my plan of action with the girl, 'I've spent too much stamina on manoeuvres and at this pace I can't reach the gate.
- So what do we do? We're still a little less than halfway there...
- Yes, and I know what we're going to do, or rather you do! - I smiled, watching as the giant behind us, instead of making another attack, transformed into a giant hand that rushed towards us - and it looks like we don't have much time.
- Mummies! - Shrieked the girl, glancing behind her back.
- Okay, pull yourself together! - Now I'm going to launch you towards the gate, and your job is just to get into it and keep yourself weightless, understand?
- Mm-hmm,' Uraraka nodded in response, keeping her mouth shut. Looks like she's going to run out of strength soon, too. No wonder, if I was only spending my strength on accelerating and manoeuvring, she was zeroing in on her weight the whole time.
Taking the girl's hand, I started spinning in the air like a yule log as the giant arm flew towards us and, when there were a couple of moments left before impact, I unclenched my hand, launching my classmate towards the gate.
- Gha! - It hit me with its paw and carried me to the ground, but I didn't hit the ground - I just fell down, and next to me, a sea of cement parted and the teacher came out:
- Looks like you didn't... Huh? Where's the girl? - The teacher started looking around, and at that very moment, the voice of the detector sounded:
- The exam has been passed!
- Hehehehehe, - I barely squeezed out a smile, but it was a complete failure, if it was a real fight, I wouldn't even be able to touch him. What kind of monsters are our teachers? - I think we got you, ha, ha, but seriously! That's not fair! Ha, ha, how can you win with such conditions?
- But you succeeded, right? - Cimentos smiled at my words, 'The conditions for all the examinees were chosen to give them a chance to pass the test. By thinking with your head and working together, there is always a chance to win, as your pair demonstrated, well done! - He clapped his hands and looked at me, 'Do you need help? Shall I call for a mechanical stretcher?
- No, - I refused the offer, - now I'll lie down a little and everything will be fine. Can you tell me if I can see how my classmates are doing?
- There's no problem with that, you've coped quite quickly, so go to the place where you were assigned to groups. There is an observation point there, from where the Healing Girl is watching the developments, and I need to return the polygon to its original state... - the teacher left.
I rested a bit and went to the place indicated by the examiner. At the edge of the polygon I was met by Uraraka, who, from the influx of emotions, rushed to my neck and kissed me, but quickly came to her senses and bounced away, but at that moment I pulled her and kissed her again.
After enjoying the girl's soft lips, I headed towards the observation centre in the pleasant company of a ripe tomato, well, I mean Uraraka, red as the aforementioned vegetable.
- 'Oh, Kayama and his partner, you're good,' the doctor greeted us, with Iida and Ojiro already standing beside her.
- My name is Uraraka Ochako. - introduced herself.
- Nice to meet you,' the old woman nodded, 'young man, can I count on your abilities?
- Yes, I'll sit and rest and I can help you if you need it. - I settled down in one of the armchairs installed here - comfy!
- Well, lunch will be brought to you all soon, I've ordered it, so rest and get your strength back.
- Thank you.
- Guys,' said Ochako, 'how did your exam go?
- We finished first,' Iida began, 'while Ojiro was distracting the teacher, I was able to break through the gates using a spurt. - Iida nodded at his partner's explanation. - What about you? When we arrived, you had already finished.
Ochako, like a born orator, began to describe our battle with the cement giant, and how we got away from him and barely managed to break through to victory.
- Doctor,' Uraraka said, 'is this normal? The teacher is too strong, how could we ever beat him?
- Actually, your examiner has quite a few weaknesses. He needs full contact, the range of his quirk, - well here I disagree, about a kilometre he can definitely cover, - and, he can only control cement. He fought you under ideal conditions, even in a city where he could seemingly handle any villain, things are pretty sad - because he can't touch buildings, due to the danger of collapse, and roads where cars can travel to help the injured...
- Oh! Look! - Iida exclaimed. - Katsumi and Shizuki's exam is starting!
