The fight started out like most had in the tourney. Katsuki and Fumikage leapt at each other with Quirks at the ready. It went blow after blow, Fumikage's Dark Shadow taking the brunt of Katsuki's explosions. Though it appeared that the longer the match went on for, the more irritated Katsuki got.
"Come on bird-guy!" Nagisa whined out as Fumikage started getting pushed back.
"Yeah you took down Yaoyorozu so easy, come on Tokoyami!" Mina also whined.
"As long as Kacchan doesn't figure out his secret weakness he might have a chance to turn this around." Izuku muttered out.
"Knowing Bakugou he's figured it out." Tenki sighed.
"You really think so?" Ochako asked.
"Oh no!" Nagisa's yelp got everyone to re-focus on the fight. Katsuki had created an explosion to get him in the air. Dark Shadow went to grab him, but one next explosion made the shadow flinch. Katsuki got behind Fumikage easily and seemed to have gotten an opening. As Katsuki went to clap his hands together, Dark Shadow went to shield its wielder.
"He's gonna win." Nagisa pouted and turned his head away. Just as that was said Katsuki let out a bright light from a newer burst. Fumikage was stunned and Katsuki got ahold of his beak.
"Tokoyami has surrendered! Bakugou wins!" Present Mic announces to the crowd.
"Poo…" Mina smacked the armrests of her seat weakly.
"He didn't even last as long as I did." Eijirou sighed.
"He did what he could. Bakugou is a scary opponent." Tenki signaled for his brother to come closer.
"Do you think Sho is going to beat his butt?" Nagisa questions as he walks right up to his sibling.
"I sure hope so." Tenki nodded and ruffled Nagisa's hair.
"I don't know either," Izuku chimed in, "Todoroki still seemed generally shaken up from earlier." He then began to pout and he looked down to his busted arm.
"Hey, don't you go blaming yourself for that! Whatever happened was a good thing, even if he's still thinking too hard on it." Eijirou snapped lightly. Izuku jumped in his seat and bowed his head.
"Right, sorry." He then smiled and gave Eijirou a head nod. Not a moment later Tenya seems to vibrate.
"Excuse me that's my phone." Tenya holds a hand out and pulls out his cell.
"There's some quiet space in the upper hallway, go there for the call." Tenki quickly points to the area he's talking about.
"Thank you." Tenya made his way out of the seating and walked away.
"He didn't look too happy." Nagisa muttered. Tenki pinched at his brother's nose. "Hey!" Nagisa squealed and stepped back.
"Watch where you stick your nose." Tenki teased. Nagisa responded by sticking his tongue out.
"I'm gonna sit with Pinky, she's nice!" He huffed and wandered back to Mina.
"I win!" Mina cheered.
"What?" Denki tried to hold back a laugh.
"Just let them be." Hanta patted Denki on the back and everyone finally let out their laughter.
"The final is now upon us!" Present Mic's voice blared over the arena, "Todoroki versus Bakugou, who will turn up the victor?"
"That was quicker than I expected." Tenki muttered. The cheery mood slowly dissipated as anticipation for the match began. From what the crowd could see, Shouto was wearing his face in a monotone manner, while Katsuki was madly grinning from ear-to-ear.
"Now start!" And not a second after Present Mic's call Shouto let out a giant ice attack. Izuku yelped at the intensity of the attack.
"This is completely different from his other fights." He went on to point out.
"Look at the middle of the ice. Looks like Bakugou's thawed out a space." After Momo made this comment, Katsuki exploded the ice. Pieces of the ice were scattered all around and the hot-head closed in the gap between himself and Shouto. He was quick enough to actually land a hit on Shouto's head and knock him off his feet. While he skid, Shouto created an ice wall and with his momentum skated across the surface to get in and nab Katsuki by the arm. Katsuki was then sent back with another wave of ice.
"He's not using his fire even though decent opportunities have popped up. And at this rate Kacchan will wear him out." Izuku whined as Shouto fell to his knees.
"Quit trying to make a fool out of me!" Katsuki shouted loud enough for the crowd to hear. "There's no point in fighting against some half-assed punk!" It was then another lunge toward Shouto.
"Todoroki…Don't lose. Come on!" Izuku suddenly stood and shouted down to the competitors. Shouto quickly turned to Izuku's direction with wide eyes.
"Pay attention to me you bastard!" Katsuki hissed and started to spin in air while setting off his Quirk. Shouto was able to re-focus on his opponent and his left side flared to life. The two flaming attacks landed and Shouto's ice also grew from the exploding impacts. When the smoke cleared, Shouto was out of bounds sitting in his own ice blocks. Katsuki laid dazed in the ring. The blond noticed what had happened and pulled himself to his feet.
"He doesn't seem too happy." Tenki muttered.
"Todoroki didn't really give him a fight, maybe he's upset about that?" Eijirou sighed as he made his comment. Back down in the ring Lady Midnight had to put Katsuki to sleep as he tried to jostle Shouto's unconscious body.
"Todoroki is out of bounds, so Bakugou is the winner of U.A. Sports Festival!" Midnight goes on to announce. "Just give us a few minutes to clean up and get on with the awards ceremony."
"I'll go be with Bakugou for when he wakes up. I doubt he'll be in a good mood." Eijirou is the first to stand.
"And I want to see Todoroki." Izuku gives Tenki a look as if asking permission. Tenki shrugs his shoulders and turns to see how Mina was handling his little brother. The two appeared to be talking up a storm.
"Alright Nagisa it's time to get back to Mom and Dad." Tenki went over to collect his sibling.
"Aww, okay. But I want to see your friends lots!" Nagisa huffed as he left Mina's side.
"Deal little man!" Mina gave the boy a thumbs up.
"Agreed, he's quite the inspiring young mind." Momo chuckled. Tenki had to tilt his head at that one.
"He told me how I could utilize my slime to make bubbles just like him." Mina pointed out.
"Really?" Tenki's brows raised.
"Well he gave the idea and I came up with the solution, but still." Momo clarified.
"Oh I see. Well I'm glad you guys don't mind spending time with him. But it really is time to go." Tenki nodded his head to the girls before taking his brother's hand. Once Nagisa was dropped off, Tenki had to make it to the arena to stand with all the other students for the awards ceremony. What was surprising to see was that Katsuki was chained up at the Number 1 podium. He even had a muzzle over his mouth. All the while he was trying to move toward Shouto with growls escaping past the muzzle.
"He's been like that since he woke up." Eijirou groaned out to his peers. With no one blinking an eye at Katsuki's predicament, Midnight went on to explain the awards ceremony. She congratulated each winner and noted their ranks; which included that Tenya and Fumikage shared the third place spot, but Tenya was off on a family emergency.
"Now for the medals. Presenting them is the one and only All Might!" Midnight grinned and stepped away from the podiums. From the sky seemed to fall the Number 1 hero. He bowed to the crowd before speaking to all the medal winners personally as he looped the medals around their necks. Save for Katsuki, All Might just removed the blond's muzzle and stuck the medal in his mouth.
"Now then, may it be noted that everyone who has participated today has the potential of heroism. Stay strong young ones, now all together now…" All Might took in a deep breath to speak. "Thanks for the hard work!" He yelled out as everyone else called out 'Plus Ultra'. This got laughs from the stadium all around. So came the end of the Sports Festival; leaving the possibilities of the next day a complete mystery.
