A/N

Before we begin, happy one year anniversary to Schnee: Hero or Huntress! I never expected to make it this far! This is the longest chapter I have written for any story, so I hope the wait was worth it. I'm sure some of you were surprised seeing its length compared to other chapters. 

For this chapter, take a look at our spotify playlist and have This will be the Day prepared, on repeat even. 

You'll know when to start playing. 

The ending authors note will reveal the anniversary present. 

Enjoy!

------

There was only one word, one singular word to describe the mix of emotions flowing through Weiss' veins, and it was a rare one too, or at least it was in her lavish vocabulary. It was a word often used by Yang, and others who were much cruder than the former heiress was.  

Fuck.

Mr. Aizawa was the worst possible matchup for her, and it wasn't due to their differences in skill, Weiss was pretty confident she could take the man on, after all, his quirk only worked on other quirks. Which was exactly the problem, Weiss didn't have a quirk to turn off! And using her glyphs after Mr. Aizawa supposedly erased her quirk, however briefly, would raise too many questions, none of which Weiss would be particularly inclined to answer. 

She didn't need anyone else finding out about her true origins, even her friends who would no doubt be watching her exam. To make matters worse, Mr. Aizawa was  better than her when it came to unarmed combat, skillwise at least, and Weiss was pretty sure part of his plan was erasing her 'quirk' and disarming her of Dolt as soon as possible. She should be able to face him for a bit, Yang had ingrained some basic moves into Ruby and herself after the train incident, and Weiss had been practicing with Yu, but that was mostly for the blonde's benefit and not hers. 

"Mr. Aizawa is going to want to erase our quirks." Todoroki said, stating the obvious. The two were sitting in one of the rooms that the school had prepared. Having him on her team was also another handicap, with his limited combat skills outside of his quirk usage. Someone like Kyouka, Mina or even that Ojiro guy would have been better with their physical mutations being unaffected by Mr. Aizawa's quirk. 

Weiss could still fight without her glyphs, but keeping the appearance of having a quirk would be much harder than the actual fight. Hopefully he didn't wear those goggles, so she could at least see where Mr. Aizawa aimed his eyes, but that was never going to happen. Those goggles were a part of his standard equipment, which while useless to him, made the upcoming fight to hide her secret even harder. 

"Try avoiding his capture scarf, and use your ice at range when you can." Weiss narrowed her eyes as she clenched her fist. "If you have the opportunity to escape, take it and forget about me." They just needed at least one of them to escape to pass right? She could stall Mr. Aizawa long enough for Todoroki to find the exit. 

Timing the moments to make her glyphs disappear and reappear would either make or break Weiss' cover story, as well as downplaying her own aura enhanced strength and speed. If she messed up, she was pretty sure that it wouldn't be just Mr. Aizawa asking questions they had no business asking. 

Todoroki nodded curtly. "They pitted us against teachers who we'll struggle against." His mismatched eyes looked serious. Hm, did he want to make up for his loss at the Sports Festival? Good, his loss was a bit embarrassing when it came to their classes image, and for his ego as well if Weiss had to guess. 

"They're testing us to see if we can overcome our weaknesses." Weiss crossed her arms. Todoroki would be useless in close quarters without his quirk to freeze Mr. Aizawa in place.
