And like this went the next two weeks. She didn't spare with Bakugou again, mostly because she didn't saw him again around that part of the city, and some nights Kirishima and her messaged each other, talking about their progress

Shark boy: Are you nervous abt the festival?

Little fire: Just a little. But only because thinking about all the cameras watching me all day makes me anxious

Shark boy: Ha, don't worry, the cameras love pretty people, u will do fine

Little fire: Then u will have no problem too ;)

Shark boy: I'm manly, not pretty

Little fire: u can be both. Night, though guy

Shark boy: Night, little flame.

Gosh, she was so lame.

The weeks flied by, and soon enough all 1-A class was in the waiting room of the U.A sport's festival, some sitting, some standing, and Shana half laying across the table, much to Ida annoyance

"Is everyone good and ready?! The event's about to begin!"

"Wish I could have worn my costumes"

"Man without my gloves I have to be careful with the fire. What If I faint in front of all the stage?"

"Shana-san please don't think about that" Comforted Uraraka's

"You have two quirks, use it to your advantage Kaze-chan" Added Tsuyu. She really liked the two girls, they were always so sweet and Tsuyu always offered good advice thank to her observant nature.

The moment has come. Present Mic was presenting them, and Kirishima at her right side looked a bit anxious

"They're really giving us too much credit... But we won't let it shake us, right Bakugou? Shana?" He asked them hopefully, and she wonders for a moment why he searched reassurement from both of them specifically before nodding and giving him thumbs up

"Nope. Just get me pumped up. Fire girl, don't shit your pants and embarrass us"

"If we weren't surrounded by that many people I would kick you in the ass" The rest of the classes were announced and followed them in to stage. Midnight, the hero and teacher, was in the stage with her R rated costume. She actually knew the women because of her sister, she was a close friend of hers since their school days

"Now, for the athlete's oath! Your student representative from class 1-A, Katsuki Bakugou!"...The fuck?

"Whaaaat? It's Kacchan?!"

"Must be because he placed first in the entrance exam"

"The hero course entrance exam, you mean" Said a girl from class B, and Shana wanted to jump in to her and punch her. If the girl wasn't good enough to enter in to the hero course, if wasn't their fault. Bakugou went in to stage, hands in his pockets

"The athlete's oath...Make no mistake about it. I'm gonna take fist place!" Kirishima grabbed her by the arm to stop her from punching Bakugou. Did he had to give them this bad of a reputation?!

"First test is... This!" An obstacle course race...! "It's a race between every member of all eleven classes! The course is a four kilometer lap around the stadium itself! Our school preaches freedom in all things" She laughed weirdly "So as long as you don't go off the course, anything is fair game!. Racers, to your positions!" She crouched a little, to make her go faster when she starts running. She almost crashes in to someone when everyone starts running, and when she's finally out of the narrow door she feels her feet froze.

Todoroki is ahead, and he has used ice to freeze them. Tsk, like that would slow her down for long. Fire goes to her feet and melts the ice, and along four other more people, jumps high

"I ain't letting you get ahead that easy, half n' half" Shouts Bakugou, and Shana doesn't stop to see how many more had make it through and instead uses her speed up wind. Todoroki's still a little faster than her, and she forces her quirk, a swear word coming through her pressed teeth.

There's people yelling and Shana notices the robots from the entrance exam making a barrier

"Multiple targets spotted" Todoroki used her ice to freeze multiple robots, and she wasted no time and went ahead with him, the robots wouldn't be holding out for to long. Specially because as she passed she used her fire to melt it down and make them fall. Everything was fair, right?

Second barrier, a lot of high rocks that she didn't really wanted to fall from. It wasn't hard to go through it, making her wind carry her all the way. She wished the aftermath of the usage wasn't so bad.

Third barrier, minefield, like Present Mic yelled for everyone to hear, a deadly afghan carpet. She had to be very careful on this one. Bakugou has catched up with her and almost made her trip on a mine. She puffed in annoyance and saw he was now ahead of Todoroki, yelling something and he was ready to blow a mine up in Todoroki's face. This was her opportunity to be the first, and she was ready to do a big jump when a big explosion behind her was heard. Midoriya was flying with a metal board, and she stood there amazed at this fucking weird strategy. But right, no time to lose. A big jump, mixing fire and wind to power it up, put her at the same position as the other three, specifically in Todoroki's back, she had used it as a landing spot to miss any mines in the field. She was gonna jump again and finally win when Midoriya's used his board to explode a mine, and the three of them had to cover themselves. She used her wind to make the sand dissolve and saw Midoriya's passing the finish line. Todoroki casts her a glance and with a quick touch froze her feet, wich made her loose precious seconds and come to the finish line in fourth place.

"Midoriya I'm gonna kick your fucking ass" She yelled at the poor guy. Bakugo looked like he was gonna murder him and Todoroki just nod at her, like saying 'good job'.

"The top 42 from this qualifying round will move on!" Announced Midnight "But for those who placed lower, don't worry! We've got another way for you to show your stuff! And now the main selection really begins. The press are going to be jumping out of their seats, so give it all you've got. Now, on to the second event! I already know what it is, of course..." Midnight just hurry up, she pleaded in her mind "This!" Cavalry battle?! They were explained that each of them had assigned points from the last test. So, Midoriya was worth... -Ten million points! -Everyone stared at the boy with murder in their eyes, her included. "The match will last 15 minutes, each team's points are determined by it's members. The rider will wear a headband displaying the total number of points Until the match ends, you'll all compete to grab each other's points and mantain the ones you have "She explained some more and then told everyone to team up

Kirishima almost ran to her, holding her arm and leading her away

"Team up with me, Shana-chan!"

"Okay" She accepted. Kirishima blinked

"I thought it would be harder"

"Why? Your quirk is strong, and we already know it goes along good with my own. It's a smart choice. Now, who else?" And to her joy, he dragged them both to where Bakugou's stood

"That Todoroki's already wrangled up a team for himself! Team up with us, Bakugou!"

"Ah, weird hair, fire head." He acknowledged them and Shana sighed. Damn rage boy

"The name's Kirishima! remember?! And my hair's not much spiker than yours! Any who, I know you wanna be a rider, right? So your front horse had better be someone who can take all those explosions, yea? Who might that be?"

"Someone not afraid to die...?" She half asked, not sure where the boy was going with this

"Nope! It's me, with my hardening! This horse won't break! You wanna take Midoriya down, right?" And with that Bakugou was convinced

"So... Bakugou's gonna ride us?" She made the question sound so dirty and Kirishima went red faced while Bakugou's yelled at her for being a pervert, his words, not hers. They teamed up with Mina, with her acid quirk it was a good addition.

And it started, with her at the back to power them up with wind. Everyone went to get Midoriya's headband, and Shana impulsed Bakugou's and controlled him with a strong tornado like wind

"Getting pretty full of yourself, huh, you bastard! -Yelled explosion boy, about to grab the headband, when Tokoyami made a barrier of darkness. She swore and pushed him back fast, and if Kirishima wasn't so strong they would have crashed

"Nice one, Shana!" Cheered the boy, and she nodded. Suddenly, Bakugo's headband was stolen

"Too simple, really. Class A" It was a dude from the other class, and he looked so full of himself

"Give that back! I'll freaking kill you!"

"He got us"

"Give it back you ugly fucker!" She yelled, and the dude looked relaxed, what the fuck

"When midnight announced the first event, it didn't take a genius to realize they wouldn't be thinning our numbers that much in preliminary. It wasn't much of a stretch to imagine they'd be letting a good number of us advance to the next event, forty or so seemed reasonable. It was the perfect chance to hang back and observe or soon to be rival's quirk and tendencies. So it's only fair that we ended up placing more modestly

"You shouldn't be telling the strategy you used, you useless fucktard"

"Oh, Kaze-san, daugher's of the legendary Sunlight hero. I was so sad when I knew she died. And Bakugou's, you are already a celebrity, aren't you? The victim of that sludge incident! I'll have to ask you sometime. How does it feel to get attacked by villains on annual basis?" That was it. She was gonna murder him.

"Bakugo's.." She said, and Bakugou's noded

"Kirishima... Plan's changed. Before we go for Deku... I've gotta murder every last one of them...!"

"Let's fucking go" No one mentioned her mom like that and lived to tell it. Bakugou's was almost shaking above them

"Shana shut up, you're not helping. Calm down Bakugo. If you don't keep your cool, we'll never get our points back"

"Keep moving, Kirishima! I'm... As cool as ice!"

The fucking guy who stole their headbands had a replicate quirk that resembled her dad's own. Some big dude had put a substance in their feet that made them stuck

"The fuck is this? Mina can you melt this away or do I try with my fire?"

"Hold up, I'll do it!"

"Hurry up! We're at zero points!"

"Aw, don't be mad" Copy cat guy told Bakugo's, wich made him even more mad "You brought this on yourself, after all. Hey... What was that pledge you made earlier? Seems kinda embarassing now. Well, whatever"

"I'm taking first place" She could not see Bakugo's face but she was sure her murder expression was one to behold from "But not just first place, no. I'm taking the first to end all first!"

"That doesn't make fucking sense"

"Now you shut up fire head!" He shouted and she shrug her shoulders

"Good good, now put all that rage in to winning, and I'll be perfect."

"Just wait one stinkin' minute!" Bakugou's impulsed himself with a big explosion without even telling them

"Get your fucking ass back here Bakugooooo" Kirishima and her shouted at the same time. He landed in a barrier created from air, but punched his way trough it, and grabbed one of the other team headband. Shana used her wind to grab him "Give us some waning before you jump, you weirdo!"

"But now we're guaranteed to move on..."

"I ain't done yet!"

"Huh?"

"I'm not settling for some half assed first place! I couldn't brace myself going at it, so move it! Fire head use your fucking wind now!" She did so, and he successfully grabbed the headband and went away fast "Next up! Deku and Todoroki" Everyone was cheering. Only few seconds left. Bakugo's was almost flying and 4,3,2,1...

"Time's up!" She got distracted and the wind dissaparead, making Bakugo's fall on his face. "Let's see who the top four are right now! In first place, team Todoroki, in second, team Bakugo!" Said boy was punching the sand, angry as hell "In third place, Shinshou" Who was that again? "In the fourth team Midoriya! these four teams will proceed to the final event!"

Kirishima huged her and cheered

"you did great Shana-chan!"

"Yeah, you did too. Let's eat, I'm starving" They all went to the cafeteria, and she really wasn't lying when she said she was starving. Kirishima wondered how such a petite girl could eat this much

"Uh..Shana-san?"

"Yea Mina?" Her mouth full of food, like always

"What that guy back there said..."

"Oh, about my death mom? Don't worry, I don't let things like that get to me"

"Shana you were ready to murder him"

"Ne ne don't be so dramatic, I was just furious about the stealing things" She stuffed her mouth with more food to make them all stop talking. It seemed to work, so cheers, wohooo.

Shana is a mess with unhealthy coping mechanisms. It was fun to write, I like trying to figure the ideal way to use her quirks without overpowering her, adn the dynamic between her and the boys is hilarous to me. Im sorry to Sero for removing him from the team, but it was obvious who had to go, he was not needed to control Bakugou with his tapes if they have Shana's wind. If you can guess, her sister was in the same class as Nemuri, Aizawa and Yamada, I figured it would be fun to make her know the heroes and have very different relationships with all of them, you will see more of that in the future. Next comes the battles, who do you think Shana will fight against?
