Chapter 10: The fight of the Festival
"Do you see here, sonny?" Recovery Girl pointed at several x-rays showing the bones in Yaoyorozu's body, more particularly her left arm and rib-cage. It showed several fractures and cracks in multiple areas, which would indicate that she would be in some amount of pain, but she was acting all find when they had arrived. Midoriya was looking at the old-lady as she walked over to Yaoyorozu and began to use her quirk, kissing the areas that were in shown in the x-rays. Mioriya looked on with wonder, seeing the green aura surround his girlfriend's body as she healed her back to perfect condition.
"I healed up your bones so they should be good as new, as for you mister, your healing is amazing. However, you're still a novice in the terms of medical treatment. To elaborate, your healing just handles the problem's first layer, and not the core of it. I suggest you practice your healing ability and to learn more about the medical field, all the while not taking the risk of not handling the problem. Just handle the small stuff and leave the heavy stuff to the professionals, alright? Now, do head on back, the last bout is about to begin, and a patient is arriving shortly." Midoriya and Yaoyorozu snapped their heads over to the older woman, who was currently getting a couple of things together.
"Wait, what do you mean the last match, what happened with the 7th bout?!" Midoriya exclaimed as he gritted his teeth, as he didn't get to cheer Uraraka on. But, he shook his head and looked at Recover Girl's face fall a little, which automatically signaled something bad happened.
"The 7th bout ended with the victory of Katsuki Bakugo by a ring-out. Ochaco Uraraka gave it her all and had him on the ropes, but he quickly bounced back and finished the match. Don't worry, her injuries aren't too severe and just a couple of bruises, sprains, and cuts. Anyways, please leave as I need to set up, and here you go young lady." She handed Yaoyorozu a sucker and shooed them out of the room. The two of them looked at each other with worry as they saw the bots carrying Uraraka, who was unconscious, and entered the infirmary. Midoriya couldn't help but feel guilty that he wasn't there to support her, but he pushed it into the back of his mind as he looked at Yaoyorozu opening the wrapper and popped it in her mouth.
"Mmm! Strawberry flavored." She said as she smiled and looked at him, who had a look of disbelief. She huffed and began walking towards the booth, hearing the steps of Midoriya as he caught up to her and kept in stride with her. The two of them walked the corridors of the stadium, passing by a couple of other people. The two eventually made it to the booth and saw the exact moment as Tetsutetsu and Kirishima knocked each other out, signaling that a draw has occurred.
"This fight is a draw, once they regain consciousness and they have rested for a couple of minutes, the winner will be decided via an arm wrestling match!" Midnight said as she hopped off the platform and walked to the arena, alongside several recovery bots. Midoriya sat down in his usually spot and Yaoyorozu followed suit as they were disappointed that they didn't get to see the last two matches of the first round.
"Say Jiro, what happened in the last two fights?" Yaoyorozu asked as she looked up at her friend, who was currently twirling her earbud. She looked at her before bringing her finger to her chin.
"The fight with Uraraka and the asshole was, to say it in lamest terms, brutal. That bastard ditched out everything he had against her, but she managed to stand her ground and even had him pushed back. Then, I guess he blew a fused and overpowered her, sending her crashing into the wall. Tsk, what a asshat, no chivalry with him. The fight with Tetsutetsu and Kirishima was a draw from the beginning, the only interesting part was what you saw." Jiro concluded. Yaoyorozu nodded and looked at Midoriya, who had an expressionless look on his face, but she noticed how he pawed at his pants and watched as it strained against his leg sleeve.
"Midoriya..." She frowned as she glanced at the blond, looking rather uninterested at what was going on. From the moment they had met at the beginning of the school, she began to dislike him, which was further increased as his crude behavior became evident in everything he did, from the Apprehension Test to the Simulation Battle, had irked her very core. And...every time he yelled at Midoriya always made something in her snap, but she would always remain calm and collected as usually either the green-haired kid dealt with it himself, or a teacher would. She bit her thumb as her thoughts were swirling around in her head, but the lingering feeling that something is bound to happen stayed put.
"When will be the day when I finally snap of Bakugo's...aggravating personality?" She thought as the two boys had recovered form their battle and soon, they were setting up the arm-wrestling match. She sighed as she nudged Midoriya, causing him to look at her in confusion. She pointed at the stadium, and he nodded before putting his focus on the match. Midnight then took her spot right next to the concrete block, thanks to Cementoss, and ushered the two boys to step up, each taking a different side of the block as they planted their elbows. Their quirks activated as they gripped each other's hands tightly as Midnight placed her hands on top of theirs.
"The winner of this will move on into the second round of the tournament event. I'm sure you all know the rules to this, and remember, no cheating! Alright, are the two of you boys ready?" Both of them nodded as she smiled and released their hands, immediately, the two boys put everything they had into their hands as they tried to win this. Kirishima gripped the side of the block with his other hand as he put every last amount of strength he had, and Tetsutetsu did the same, resulting in a draw, but the two boys didn't give up as they continued their match, not breaking eye contact with each other. Several Pro-Heroes were commenting on their resolve and passion. Both of them started to yell out as they tried to overpower the other, until the steel in Tetsutetsu's arm began to crack, alarming the Class 1-B student, but Kirishim capitalized on that as he yelled out, and eventually slamming his opponents hand to the concrete. Both of them were breathing heavily as Midnight waved her whip, signaling the match was over.
"Eijiro Kirishima defeats Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu in the arm-wrestling match! He will advance to the second round! Give a round of applause to these to amazing contenders!" Cheers roared throughout the stadium as Kirishima helped Tetsutetsu up and smiled, both of them locked looks and firmly shook each other's hands. Midoriya smiled at it, but grew serious as it was now the second round of the event.
"And now! Will everyone turn your attention to the screen as we present the the bouts of the second round. Our freshmen are doing amazing out here, and these fights will only get more and more intense from now on! Here are the matches!" Midnight motioned towards the screen as the next matches were being displayed.
"The 1st bout will be Izuku Midoriya versus Shoto Todoroki! That will be a match that everyone is looking forward to as these are the two students that are projected to win the tournament, alongside Katsuki Bakugo! Who will win, you don't have to worry as it will be the first fight! 2nd bout will be Tenya Iida versus Ibara Shiozaki, another great match to watch! 3rd bout is Momo Yaoyorozu versus Mina Ashido!, And finally, the 4th bout will Katsuki Bakugo versus Eijiro Kirishima! That's the top eight of this tournament, all these fights will be amazing! You don't want to miss this!"
Midoriya frowned as he stood up and made his way to the waiting room. He quickly looked around him and quickly opened the door before shutting it behind him. He sighed before looking around the room.
"Alright, Amaterasu, let's talk right now." Midoriya said, lo and behold, she appeared in a dazzling light right in front of him. A smile played at her lips as she eyed the green-haired boy and then sat down on the table. He looked at her before walking up to her and looked at her.
"You want to continue our previous conversation, are you sure? You have a big match right around the corner." Amaterasu commented as she drew her blade from the sheath and began to inspect it, putting Midoriya on edge as his instincts alerted him, but she shook her head and sat it down on her lap. He lowered his guard a bit but kept a close eye at it. She sensed his alertness and chuckled as she brandished the sword.
"Don't be so alert, after all..." Midoriya saw her hand move, but he couldn't react as she swiftly swung the sword at him. He gritted his teeth as he was ready for the imminent pain, but he didn't. He slowly opened his eyes and saw that the blade was stopped a few centimeters from his body, like a barrier was placed all around him as she slashed a couple more times, each getting increasingly faster and stronger, but it was the same result. Midoriya looked at her as she sheathed the sword and sighed, opening one eye, she glanced at him and smiled.
"You see, even if I wanted to kill you, I can't as you are my creator. So, you're my master, and I'm the servant. Do you have that down so far?" She asked. He nodded and relaxed his nerves from earlier, but he still needed more information on her and his power. She read his thoughts and jumped off of the table, then she held out her hand and a crest appeared on the palm of her hand, which was a golden celestial sun.
"This crest is yours, well, you have two exactly. A sun and moon, shocker, huh? Anyways, this crest is what binds the two of us together, and is the source of the link that you and me have, sort of like a telepathic tether in a way. Meaning that we can communicate with each other through our minds, of course this link can be severed if you wish it to be, and vice versa. Do you get that as well?" Amaterasu asked, which he once again nodded as he groaned a little as she was telling him the least important stuff, or rather the things that he wanted to be informed of last.
"My memories are based on your research and any knowledge that you have pertained over the course of having this quirk. So, I know everything that you do, like how to use a cellphone even though I'm a mythological goddess. Now that I have materialized into this world, I now gain my knowledge through looking at what you're seeing and stuff like that. Like, when I'm not materialized in this world and in your body, I can see what you're seeing, if that's makes sense. In short, I learn everything alongside you. I know it seems like I'm just telling you the small stuff, but this is serious stuff, Midoriya. I know I told you to call me mom, and now that you know more about the situation, I guess now that's kind of a misleading and subjective. As your servant, I will do my best to serve you, Master." She bowed before him, making him uneasy as he paced in place before awkwardly placing his hand on her shoulder. He felt extremely uncomfortable with the new development. He nodded and then looked around her and saw that it was almost time for his match against Todoroki. Amaterasu looked back to and cursed a little as she quickly turned to Midoriya and grabbed his hand, a bright light consumed the two as Midoriya felt the energy rush into his body from her palm. Once she let go, the two of them stopped shining.
"What was that?" Midoriya asked as he checked himself, until he checked the back of his right hand, the one she grabbed, and on it was a celestial sun just like Amaterasu's, but it was a redish-purple color and looked more badass than hers. She smiled and disappeared into a ball of light, then Midoriya absorbed it. He looked down at the crest, and felt the heat of it as it glowed brightly before dimming down.
"I made our pact official, as we weren't necessarily a pact when you first created me, Master. Now that it's official, you can now tap into my power, hence the "God Form" and the ability to temporarily give a boost in your power. I must warn you that the time limit of the form is dependent of the current mastery over it, so basically, you're a novice, so that means the time in that form will be around 3-5 minutes depending on your energy and ability to control said energy. However, going overboard can lead to an enormous amount of strain to your body, and excessive times of overusing that power will dissolve your body from the inside out, now that's something you don't want to experience. Anyways, I advise you to only use that form if you really need to for now. Once we get some time, I can help you improve the amount of time you can stay in that form. One more thing, depending on your emotions, Celestial Omage will obviously react differently, sounds pretty usual, right? Anyways, your match is about to begin, I wish you the best of luck, Master." Amaterasu said before going quiet, causing the young boy to sigh as he didn't get to ask some questions, but he figured that it should wait as he his current focus should be Todoroki.
"Alright! I'm ready for this!" He cracked his knuckles and made his way to the hallway leading to the center stage. He saw Toshinori standing there and waved at him, getting one back from his mentor. He stopped in front of the lanky man.
"What are you doing here, All-Might?" Midoriya asked him. The hero chuckled and ruffled the green-haired kid's hair, earning a disgruntled yelp as the older man laughed and the boy followed shortly after. After they stopped, Toshinori placed his hand on Midoriya's shoulder and looked at him in the eyes.
"Kid, you've made me proud. Now, I want you to win this match, better yet, win this Festival and show the world what the next Symbol of Peace can do. Anyways, kid, how is OFA?" Midoriya began to fidget with his hands and he began to pace the floor as he looked everywhere but the hero.
"To be honest, I'm still at 10%, and I really haven't been doing hot with it as of late." Midoriya confessed, but Toshinori shook his head and got the boy's attention.
"Young man, even if 10% doesn't seem that much, you learned to control that much in such a short of time that it's really impressive. It may be small now, but your potential with it will one day succeed even my power, and you will be an even greater hero than myself. Remember, a hero will always strive to improve themselves and their quirks. Alright kid, I've kept you here long enough, remember to give your Plus Ultra!" The older man held out his arm towards the boy, who looked at it for a bit and then realized what he wanted.
"Yeah! I'll give my Plus Ultra!" Midoriya fist-bumped him and walked into the center stage, a sudden air of confidence surrounded the young man, putting a wide grin on the hero's face as he watched from there. Midoriya made his way to the arena as the crowds cheered for the start of the 2nd round of the tournament.
"Alright folks! The first match of the second round is about to begin! It will be Class 1-A's Izuku Midoriya versus Class 1-A's Shoto Todoroki! These two freshman have been the main focus of this Festival as the two of them have maintained their ranking of 1st and 2nd, respectively. Now the two of them will battle each other to see who will advance into the semi-finals! Who will win, who knows? Both of them are complete powerhouses and so strong that it turns me on!" Midnight gushed out, causing several people to question her commentary while others weren't bothered by it. Midoriya walked up to the stage and looked up to see Todoroki making his way up the stairs as well. The two boys stopped at their designated place and waited for the match to begin.
"Finally, I get to show that bastard father that I don't need his damn side to beat you and win this tournament." Todoroki said as ice began to collect at his fingertips. Midoriya just looked at him as he began to collect energy throughout his body, and once more, his eyes turned golden, and his hair gained the familiar tint of gold that he always dawned when he got serious. Todoroki smirked as the two boys were ready to get the match started, and the crowd liked the tension the two of them were making. Their cheers became louder as people were taking sides in the fight, some even making bets on who was going to win. The Class 1-A booth was pretty split on who was going to win, and some were even arguing with each other.
"I think that Todoroki is going to win, Kirishima. Dude's a freaking badass!" Kaminari yelled at the redhead.
"No, Midoriya has got it in the bag! Bro's a manly man!" Kirishima backed up his bro as the two of them continued to argue. They were all split on who was going to win, but the majority were leaning towards Midoriya as he was more likable than Todoroki. Jiro was chuckling at Kaminari for being stupid, then she turned towards Yaoyorozu, who had a concerned look on her face as her mind was off in her own little world. Jiro looked at her before following her gaze to Midoriya and tapped her friend on the shoulder, startling the onyx-eyed girl. Yaoyorozu quickly fixed herself and looked over at the shorter girl.
"You wanted to talk to me, Jiro?" She said as she smiled at her, causing the purple-haired girl to frown as she knew it was a forced smile. Jiro sighed and whispered in Yaoyorozu's ear.
"Are you okay? You've been staring at Midoriya the entire time. Do you think Midoriya is going to lose to Todoroki?" Yaoyorozu quickly pulled back and shook her head, causing Jiro to raise an eyebrow as she was confused on Yaoyorozu's current behavior.
"Are you okay, Yaomomo? You're acting strange, out of your usual character. Did something happen?" Jiro questioned her friend, noticing how she would steal glances at Midoriya, and then she started to piece the clues together.
"Wait, you are worried about Midoriya!" Yaoyorozu's eyes widened as she tried to deny it, but couldn't bring herself to do so and nodded timidly. Jiro looked at her in surprise and then grabbed her hand and the two of them walked down the stairs until they were out of earshot of the other class memebers. When they reached a good spot, Jiro turned to Yaoyorozu and looked at her expectingly.
"Momo." Yaoyorozu's attention automatically zoomed in on her friend as she called her by her first name, which would've made her happy if it wasn't in a situation like she was currently in. After a couple of seconds, Jiro looked at Yaoyorozu in her eyes and with a serious expression on her face.
"What is your relationship with Midoriya?" Yaoyorozu's eyes widened a little, which the earphone-jack user caught, and stayed silent as her eyes darted all around except for her friend's face. After a couple of minutes later, Jiro sighed and placed her hand on her shoulder.
"You like him, don't you?" Jiro questioned, and prayed that her friend would extricate her behavior, but alas, her friend kept quiet as she stood there, gripping the zipper of her top. The constant zipper action began to irk Jiro as it continued, the sound of it zipping and unzipping sent her over the edge and she gripped her friend's hand and held it up to her face, getting the taller girl's attention.
"Yaomomo, we're friends right? Then you can tell me what's bothering you, c'mon. It's not like I'm going to laugh at you or anything." Jiro joked, trying to lift the mood up, but she saw Yaoyorozu's expression as her face was all scrunched up in worry and concern, and occasionally steal glances out the hallway towards the way to the arena. Jiro huffed in annoyance as she mentally apologized to Yaoyorozu and slapped her friend across the face. Yaoyorozu's face looked shocked as she gingerly brought her hand to her cheek and placed it on the spot where she slapped. Jiro's hand stung as she gripped it and looked at her face, seeing the shock and anger in her eyes.
"...why?" Yaoyorozu had the biggest glare she had ever seen, and she wanted to flee, but she stood tall and glared at her friend.
"I did that because you're putting too much thought into this fight! Don't you believe that Midoriya will win?!" Jiro yelled at her friend, which caused a vein to appear on Yaoyorozu's forehead.
"Of course I believe that Izuku will win! I'm worried about the aftermath of the battle! This fight will be intense, and he will probably obtain injuries in the process! Why are you questioning my concerns?! Can't a girlfriend worry about her boy-!" Yaoyorozu quickly covered her mouth, blushing slightly at what she was about to say, but Jiro smirked as she leaned closer to her.
"I knew it, you and Midoriya are dating. Even on first name basis, too? Wow, you guys have grown that close to each other." Jiro slyly said as she nudged her shoulder, irritating the black-haired girl further. Jiro stopped and chuckled at her friend's annoyance before returning back towards her serious expression.
"If you guys are dating, then you should have a lot more faith in him than what you have now. If he gets hurt, it's your job to be there for him when he needs it and vice versa. You know, he was cheering for you during your match. And I must say, he was very vocal, and it was very cheesy, but he cheered for you nonetheless. Come on, we're going to miss the match at this rate." Jiro said as she turned around and made her way back towards the booth. Yaoyorozu looked at the back of her friend and smiled as she quickly caught up to Jiro, and the two of them made their way back into the booth. They took their seats and watched as the match seemed like it was about to start as both Midoriya and Todoroki were ready to duke it out.
"Alright! Ladies and gents, the match is about to begin! Are the two fighters ready?!" Midnight looked at the two of them, and both of them nodded as they got into their stances, their quirks already beginning to appear around them as Midnight grinned widely and held out her whip.
"3, 2, 1...let the match...BEGIN!" Midnight yelled, and immediately Midoriya rushed Todoroki, sending multiple rays of light right at him. Todoroki countered it by making wall of ice as a loud crash was heard as the rays made contact with the ice, melting some of it. The ice user looked at the area of collision and frowned at it.
"It should've been reflected...how?" Todoroki glared at Midoriya, a cheeky grin was on the green-haired boy's face as he held up his hand, the light around his fist looked a lot more sporadic and the color was a more orange-yellow. Midoriya then sent a wave of light, and once more, Todoroki created a wall of ice. His eyes widened and quickly side-stepped out of the way as the wave of light sliced through the ice. He then felt a cut on his cheek and glared at the boy before sending multiple shards of ice, the followed up by a wave of ice. Midoriya quickly created a solar barrier that melted the shards before sending the barrier forward, melting the wave in the process, but didn't notice the second wave of ice shards and ended up getting pierced in the shoulder by the tip of it. He grunted as he yanked the shard out and healed the area, but it felt tender. Todoroki charged forward, covering the area around him with ice, increasing his speed and launched another wave of ice, and used the wave to block his movements and exploded the wave with another ice attack, hitting Midoriya's solar barrier.
"Right where I wanted you!" Midoriya said as he fired a ray of light that hit Todoroki square in the chest, sending the boy flying. The ice user grunted and closed his eyes for a brief second, when he opened them, Midoriya was right in front of him as he punched him in the stomach and used the momentum to combo into a roundhouse, sending him into the arena floor. The green-haired kid grunted a little as he looked at his leg to see that Todoroki had frozen some of his leg in the process. He melted the air with his aura and saw Todoroki standing up, a look of hatred on the boy's face as he launched multiple waves of ice. The damage that Midoriya had on his leg forced him to dodge, but still got clipped by the wave and a couple of shard impaled the same leg. In retaliation, Midoriya used lunar energy and created a wave behind the fire-ice user as it connected with Todoroki's back, with the wave, Midoriya sent a solar wave at the boy. The two moves collided with Todoroki in the middle, creating an explosion as dust was kicked up into the arena. A wave of ice surged from the impact zone and caught Midoriya off guard as it froze his left arm and leg. Midoriya grunted as he quickly went into a defensive stance, creating a barrier as he couldn't see what was going on. On instinct, Midoriya stepped back as a pillar of ice thrusted out of the cracks below his previous location, then it began to branch out in unimaginable speeds, forcing the boy to release his barrier and launched a pulse of solar energy, clearing the dust cloud and saw that Todoroki had encased the outer edges and even parts of the center area in ice. Even Midnight's platform was covered in ice, with the Pro-Hero encased partly with ice. She had a annoyed look on her face as she shivered a little.
"You're good, Midoriya, but I'm going to beat you using only my right side! I'll prove that I don't need that bastard's power!" Todoroki yelled as he created a wave of ice that traveled a lot faster than his previous attacks, catching the OFA user off guard, but he quickly countered with two light waves, the first one was the more destructive one and the second traveled a lot quicker than the first, hitting the unsuspecting boy. It knocked him off balance and Midoriya took the opportunity to dash in and sent Delaware Smash at the boy, but it was damaged as Midoriya shook of the pain and punched the stunned ice user, forcing. the boy almost out of the ring. Todoroki created a wall of ice that stopped him from going out of bounds. Anger swelled in the heterochromia boy as he sent large amounts of ice at Midoriya, with hopes of crushing him with sheer force. Midoriya looked at the huge amount of ice and held up a barrier, but the ice in the cracks jutted out more spikes, some even impaling his foot and his leg. He grunted as he was forced to drop the barrier and sent a giant ray of light in desperation. The attacks collided with each other with an explosion, several ice shards flew into the air in all directions, and Midoriya came up with an idea and sent copious amounts of solar rays, hitting the ice shards, causing them to reflect off of the surface and go everywhere, hitting Todoroki and Midoriya both and even some of the crowd, but Midoriya made sure that they didn't do any harm to the audience. He felt slightly rejuvenated as the warm rays were absorbed into his body, but he noticed several ice shards in his other leg, and saw the trail of ice on the ground, with Todoroki at the end. A harsh glare on the boy's face as he sent another wave of icicles at Midoriya, but the boy launched a ray of light, melting the ice and colliding with Todoroki's chest, sending him back, but he once again created ice to stop him. Both of them were breathing heavily as wounds were all over their bodies. Midoriya panted as he didn't bother healing his wounds to conserve energy and then he looked at his opponent with a smile on his face.
"Do you see what's happening? I'm still standing after your desperate attempts at winning. I thought you were going to win using only your right side? At this rate, you're going to tire out before I do." Midoriya taunted as he looked smugly at the fire-ice user, getting under his skin as he felt the glare send tingles down his spine, but he forced it back. Midoriya then rushed at Todoroki, catching him off guard as he was there in seconds and grabbed a hold of the boy and quickly threw him over his shoulder, and sent a Delaware Smash at the airborne boy. In the spur of the moment, Midoriya teleported and punched Todoroki, sending him crashing into the ground.
"I can teleport?!" He said as he tried to teleport again, but was caught in a counter by Todoroki as he sent a multiple tendrils of ice, and managed to trap Midoriya in it. The fire-ice user than sent multiple shard of ice at the boy and got in close and punched Midoriya with his ice encase fist in the stomach, but was sent back as Midoriya broke his leg free and lashed it out, sending a wave of solar energy at him.
"Just...give up...Midoriya! You...can't win..." Todoroki huffed out and sent a wall of ice, however, his frostbite was getting the best of him. The wall was easily avoidable as Midoriya took advantage of it and sent a lunar wave at Todoroki, and made it disappear as he dodged a sloppy punch from Todoroki and uppercutted him in the chin, and then created a solar fist above the boy and sent him straight into the ring. Midoriya was feeling the repercussions of using his quirk as he felt the his energy decreasing at a constant rate.
"Damn...I have to finish this and help Todoroki before I run out of energy!" Midoriya looked at his two broken fingers and sighed. He needed to work on OFA as he's getting sloppy at it, but he shook his head and focused on his oppoenent as he had trouble standing up due to the amount of damage he had sustained in the fight.
"I have to win...to prove I don't need my damn father's power! DAMN YOU MIDORIYA! Why won't you go down?!" Todoroki shouted angrily as he was beginning to go over his limits, and sent a massive ice storm at Midoriya.
"Damn, a new attack?! Dammit, got to start going overboard too!" Midoriya thought as he held his hand out to the sky, his body glowing as a massive ray of light shot down from the sky, engulfing the entire stadium. It lasted for a second as Midoriya fell to his knees, panting heavily and the corners of his eyes were starting to become hazy, but he pushed through and stood up, gritting his teeth as he saw Todoroki still standing, but barely. A massive glare on the boy's face, almost a look of blood-lust.
"How...? How come I haven't defeated you yet, Midoriya?!" Todoroki shouted as he clenched his hands into fist, not caring that frostbite had appeared on his left side of his body. Midoriya looked at him and shrugged his shoulders, almost in a mocking manner as he looked directly in his eyes.
"You want to know why. It's because you're weak. Claiming that you deny half of your quirk and want to be a hero is laughable. Half-assing is what you're doing, and I've never met a hero that half-asses their work because some lame excuse like their past. Utterly pathetic, if that's how you want to see things, then give up being a hero." Midoriya said, crossing his arms to his chest and glared at Todoroki, who was seething with anger and roared, launching a massive wave of ice, but Midoriya simply melted it and appeared right in front of him, sending a punch to the chest, kicking his side, and launched a ray of light at him. He was sent flying, but then hit the lunar wave Midoriya concealed and was paralyzed and then was sent into the arena floor by Midoriya's kick. Todoroki coughed out and stood up, wobbling a bit as Midoriya landed on the ground.
"Midoriya...you bastard. You don't understand how I feel, so just piss off!" Todoroki yelled out as he tried to send another wave of ice, but the frostbite zapped his energy dry and fell to his knees, panting heavily.
"You're right, I don't understand how you feel, but an idiot uses the past to blind themselves from the truth! You can't deny that your left side is a part of you now, and you can't cast it off. It may be your father's power, but now, it's part of your quirk, Todoroki." Midoriya said as he looked at Todoroki, who had his eyes wide and suddenly clenched his head in pain. Todoroki began to remember his childhood, feeling the pain and suffering he went through because of his father, and the look his mother gave him. He clenched his chest as he remembered everything.
"Shoto, do you like All-Might?" His mother asked him, and he had the biggest smile on his face, all the while holding up an All-Might figurine. He nodded happily as he smiled.
"Mommy, I want to be a hero just like him, and a hero to you as well!"
"That's sweet Shoto, but you already are my hero!" She hugged him tightly, a smile on both of their faces.
"You say you want to be a hero, then be one. The past is done, but the present, you can become the hero you want to be. Your quirk is your own, no one else's. It may be your father's power, but the way you use it and how you perceive it is your own. It's your quirk, Todoroki! You have the power to be the hero you want to be!" Midoriya yelled out at him. All of a sudden, his heart stopped clenching as he looked at Midoriya's eyes, seeing the conviction and drive in the boy, and smiled softly as he closed his eyes.
"Shoto?"
"Yes mommy?"
"No matter what people think, your quirk is your own. Use it to become the hero you wanted to be, the hero that will make me proud of you."
"I see...so that's what your aim was, Midoriya...Thank you.." Todoroki said, and his left side began to ignite ablaze as the flames grew more and more intense. Todoroki had a grin on his face as he felt the frostbite on his right side melt, and the flames grew more and more intense.
"Holy crap!"
"Those are some massive flames!"
"As expected of the son of the #2 hero, so powerful!"
"Is that Todoroki's left side? Holy crap, what power! I can feel the flames from here!" Ashido exclaimed as the rest of Class 1-A were staring at the flames in amazement, except for Yaoyorozu, as she was growing increasingly worried at Midoriya and his current condition. She already knew what he was planning on doing in this match, and of course she questioned it as was a gamble. But, she shook her head and pushed that worry to the back of her mind, and then she cupped her mouth.
"You can do it, Midoriya!" She yelled out as the cheering of the crowds was dialed up a couple as it was getting to the good part. Several agencies were now getting serious in their scouting as they were writing down everything that they could on the two boys. Toshinori was watching the match from the hallway and was growing increasingly concerned for his student, gripping the corner of the wall harder.
"Who do you think is going to win?" Nezu said to Toshinori, startling the hero as he turned and looked at the intelligent animal.
"Principal Nezu! Good to see you, sir." Toshinori said. The animal chuckled and walked right next to the teacher.
"I'm glad that my students are giving it their all, however, I have yet to hear your answer, Toshinori." Nezu looked up at the lanky man, who was deep in thought, and was about to answer, but the animal held up his paw.
"I assume you were going to say Midoriya, your successor, weren't you? I believe so too." Nezu said before going back to watching the match. Toshinori looked at the animal before looking at his student.
"I see you were aiming to help young Todoroki, Midoriya. I am very proud of you."
Midoriya looked at the flames and couldn't help but feel amazed at the sheer power of the flames. He then began to power up himself, feeling the sun beating down on him, and the energy he had began to surge through his entire body, however, it didn't feel much as he started to feel his energy was weaker than Todoroki's. He began to think of what he could do, until Amaterasu interrupted his thoughts.
"Remember that your quirk is much like Todoroki's, however, since you've been training both aspects of the quirk, you should be able to use both at once, however, it does expend extra amounts of energy, so at the moment I suspect you'll last approximately 5 minutes. This isn't the God form, unfortunately, call it the Yin-and-Yang form. Keep in mind, since I'm the only servant you've met thus far, the Yang aspect of the form will be more prominent, as in stronger. Anyways, please do win this match, Master." Midoriya nodded and felt his quirk's energy pool together, an aura began to form around him. Silver on gold, swirling all around him as winds started to pick-up all around him. It became so intense that people were forced to shield their bodies from the wind. After gathering enough energy, he held out his hand, and a yin-yang appeared in the sky before a blinding light forced everyone to shield their eyes as well. Once the blinding light had dissipated, people quickly looked on the arena to see Midoriya.
"Is that...Midoriya?!" Kirishima exclaimed, seeing the completely different look the boy was sporting. Midoriya's hair was a silvery-gold with a golden aura around him. He opened his eyes, revealing one silver eye and a gold eye. Yaoyorozu looked at him in awe and then looked at the sky, gasping at the bizarre detail of it.
"How is the moon up at the same time as the sun?" She asked herself as she already knew the answer and looked at Midoriya, a calm and passive expression on his face. The two boys were showing off their quirk's powers to the entire world, both were ready for the final stretch.
"Are you ready, Midoriya?" Todoroki said, holding out his flame engulfed hand and ice was forming around his foot. Midoriya smiled as his hands glowed silver and gold. The two of them looked at each other before Todoroki shot flames at the green-haired boy, but he blocked it with a lunar barrier and then launched several waves of energy, cutting through the ice that Todoroki had erected. Midoriya then dashed in, blocking the ravenous fire that was thrown at him and kicked him in the stomach before snapping his fingers, sending rays of solar and lunar energy all around the ring. Todoroki quickly recovered and sent multiple ice shards at Midoriya in very close range, getting a couple of good hits in before sending the boy crashing into the stadium using his fire. By now the arena was all cracked and broken, and the battle itself was getting more and more intense, but the crowd was loving it. Several of the classes were amazed by the sheer amount of power that was being displayed, while others were fearful of those two.
"Midnight, I believe this battle has gone long enough." Cementoss said as he moved into position just in case soemthing bad was about to happen. The risque Pro-Hero looked at the battle and shielded her body as shockwaves shook the entire stadium. She nodded and began to tear her hero costume, causing several people from the stands to whistle in approval, and she sent a flirtatious wink at their direction. She activated her quirk and released her pheromones to incapacitate the two boys, but the force of the their attacks caused the mist to be blown back. Midnight gasped as she shielded her body from the increasing amounts of debris, Cementoss notice this and quickly shielded his fellow hero and then turned to the arena, seeing both of them panting hard, but they were collecting their energy as if they were going to finish this right now.
The both of them looked at each other as they gathered everything they had and then some. Once they were ready, the two of them charged at each other, they were only focused on the other as they got closer and closer to each other. They were about about halfway when cement walls began to from in front of them in order to stop them, but they continued to charge at each other, and once they felt like it was the right time, they unleashed their attacks.
"Celestial's Embark!" Midoriya yelled, sending an immense amount of celestial energy, as the solar and lunar energies intertwined, creating a sword construct and sent it at Todoroki.
"Icy Flame's Meltdown!" With both of his hands, Todoroki joined the fire and ice and launched it Midoriya, a huge wave of engulfed flames of ice at Midoriya, not caring about the cement walls, only each other as a the two moves collided, causing a huge explosion to occur as dust was kicked up, and debris from the arena and cement walls were sent flying everywhere. The whole stadium shook violently as people were protecting themselves from the debris, Yaoyorozu created a wall in front of the booth while Kendo shielded her class with her hands while Shiozaki tried to help ease her pain. Once the stadium stopped shaking and everything was calm, the dust slowly started to settle, showing the destruction of the arena. Some more dust was still present, but it too settle, and it revealed a unconscious Todoroki on top of some rubble. Kirishima broke the wall Yaoyorozu created and saw Todoroki, but none of them saw Midoriya, causing Yaoyorozu's heart to sink in distraught as there was no sign of the green-haired boy. She was about to look away, but saw movement from some of the debris and quickly jumped down from the booth, creating a mattress to help with her fall and rushed over to the area. She got their and quickly began to move some of the debris as the movements were beginning to be more and more forceful until she stepped back and Midoriya sprung out of it, multiple cuts one his forehead as he coughed out.
"Izuku..." She said and smiled as he looked at her and smiled. Midnight got up and rubbed her thighs before looking at the scene in front of her. She looked at the state of the two boys before sighing and raised her whip high in the air.
"Shoto Todoroki has been knocked unconscious and is out of bounds, making Izuku Midoriya to the winner of this bout!" Midnight said and stepped forward before falling off of whatever she was on. The stadium roared with applause as people cheered Midoriya's name. He looked around and then to Yaoyorozu before seeing his vision suddenly go black as he fell to the side. She saw this and quickly caught him before he could fall on the concrete floor, she then placed him on her lap as she waited for the medical robots to retrieve him. She looked down and saw his beaten face, but she smiled and ran her head through his hair, then placed a kiss on his forehead and closed her eyes.
"You did great, Izuku..."
And done! This took me way too long, but I managed to finished this! How was it? Good, bad, or horrible?
