"Haha! You and Izuku are going up against one another," Ritsuka hummed as he leaned against the wall, Shoto in front of him and pouting. "This is certain to be a wonderful show!"
"It's not funny! I don't want this to ruin our friendship," he breathed, before freezing at the vicious aura around him.
"Oh my," he shivered at the tone he took. "You must really be stupid if you think that this might destroy your friendship with Izuku. Ahaha! I didn't realize my cousin raised such a stupid boy," he giggled, Shoto flinching at his murderous aura
"R..right," he swallowed, stumbling back as his cousin come in real close. "I...um-"
"Now I expect a good fight with both of you giving your all! Make sure that have fun too," he winked, turning on his heel and heading out.
Shouto merely fell to the ground in shock, giggling an insane laugh as he realized just how scary his bubbly uncle could be.
"ALLL RIGHT!," Midnight called out as the crowd cheered. "I KNOW ALL OF YOU ARE DYING TO KNOW THE TOP FIVE FROM THE ENTRANCE EXAM! SO….DO YOU WANT ME TO GO FROM FIFTH TO FIRST OR FIRST TO FIFTH? AND YOU WANT THOSE SCORES?"
The crowd yelled out Fifth to first and an of counsel for the scores.
"OKAY! IN FIFTH PLACE WITH 130 POINTS, BEATING ALL MIGHT'S CORE BY 7 ...TENYA IIDA!"
He went up with a bow at all the hoots and hollers he got, blushing and shoving Hitoshi who wolf whistled at him.
"FOURTH PLACE WITH 132 POINTS AND BEATING ALL MIGHT'S SCORE BY 9! HITOSHI AIZAWA-YAMADA," she cried, the boy waving as he took a step forward before blushing as Present Mic began cooing at his son, the hero in training cursing his friends who cooed back at him.
"You all suck," he hissed.
"Love you too," Shoto smirked.
"THIRD PLACE WITH 133 POINTS, BEATING ALL MIGHT BY 10! KATSUKI BAKUGOU," she smiled, smirking as Hitoshi got into a poking war with Shoto.
"Ehhh," he yelled out, nodding at the cheers he got before jumping back in line with a wide grin.
"SECOND PLACE WITH 137 POINTS AND BEATING ALL MIGHT BY 14! SHOTO TODOROKI!"
"TAKE THAT TOUYA," he roared out, pointing to the box where he thought his brother was.
"OVER HERE DIPSHIT," Touya yelled from behind him and Shoto merely turned around and yelled the same thing.
"Brother's," Izuku sighed.
"AND AS YOU NOW KNOW! IZUKU MIDORIYA SCORED FIRST BUT…" she lead them on. "HE SCORED 198 POINTS!"
It was silent for a moment, before everyone burst out in whispers and awe as they beheld the green bean who gave a deep bow. Shoto nudged Hitoshi when they saw Katsuki stare at Izuku's ass.
"Dude…" Hitoshi groaned, laughing as Shoto nudged the others and they all began laughing lightly.
"But now it's time for the first match of the Quarter Finals! Shoto Todoroki vs Izuku Midoriya," she called out.
The crowd did the rest for her.
"THE HALF AND HALF HERO! FAHRENHEIT! VS THE HOPEFUL HERO! DEKU!"
"THAT RIGHT YOU A-1 CRAZIES! CONTESTANTS YOU HAVE 10 MINUTES TO PREPARE!"
"Oh...you must be Neito Monoma," a voice had him looking up and he flinched that the look he received.
Oh...another person who hated him.
"Do you need something," he asked, sniffing as another round of tears urged their ugly faces up.
"Well I will admit I do like kicking people down even further, but not in this moment," he sighed, coming to sit beside the other. "I want to understand you and why you despise A-1 so much."
"I...I'm a stupid idiot alright," Monoma sighed. "I...I don't know alright!"
"So...your mother and father huh," he sighed, Monoma tensing at his sad tone. "Ah, the blight of parenthood...So I am guessing that your father blames A-1 for the reason he was not able to succeed in becoming a successful hero?"
"You don't know anything," he hissed, tears pooling in his eyes. "So stop pretending to be all knowing!"
"Your father sees your quirk only worthy of villainy, your mother doesn't do anything for you…" he sighed, giving a wry smile. "So that's why you want to prove that B-1 is better, huh?"
"You don't know anything," Monoma sniffed, tears slowly making their way down his face. "So shut your trap," he hissed, looking up into the others compassionate eyes.
"Ah...so sad that someone so full of promise has had his very life turned into that of a punching bag," he murmured, pushing Monoma's hair back. "You have a chance to change you know. Because should you keep on your current path, you'll be as unlikeable as Endeavor." He warned, Monoma jolting at the warning.
"I...I will never become like that lying shit face," he hissed, tears flowing as the other got up and left. "You hear me!"
"I'll hold you to that," he smiled, turning to look at Monoma. "Name is Fujimaru by the way. Ritsuka Fujimaru."
With that he left.
"NOW ONTO THE FIRST MATCH! CONTESTANTS TAKE YOUR POSITIONS," Midnight called as the two took their stances. "BEGIN!"
Shoto wasted no time in shooting off a column of fire to Izuku. If he was going to win he needed to ensure that Izuku had no time to think.
Izuku cursed and looked up to try and anticipate Shoto's attack pattern before he gasped at the pillar of ice that slammed into his side. With a grunt he activated 10% of All for One and dug his heels into the ground, he reared a fist back and slammed in the pillar, shattering it on impact.
Shoto cursed as he was too focused on his Ice attack and allowed Izuku to get in close, his speed even faster than All Might's as Shoto leaned back to dodge the first aimed for his face. Using the fact he was falling he kicked out and slammed a foot into Izuku's stomach, sending him back as well and the two were quick to get up.
"WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT! THOSE TWO ARE EQUALLY MATCHED! NONE ARE BUDGING!"
Izuku merely smiled as he looked at Shoto, the others left side flaring up as he shot a column of Ice and Fire, making steam.
"NOW BOTH OF THEM ARE IN A CLOUD OF STEAM! I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING! EITHER ONE COULD BE MAKING HEADWAY AND WE CAN'T TELL!"
While inside the fog Shouto and Izuku engaged in hand to hand, neither of them able to get the upper hand at the moment because Shoto was third to Hitoshi and Izuku. He managed to get on Izuku's level quickly, but Izuku had more practice than Shoto and he was always better...when he could see.
Shoto had better perception in fog and part of his training had been able to see through his own created fog; so he was able to land hit after hit on Izuku with only a few being redirected.
"WHAT'S THIS? THE FOG IS CLEARING UP AND...AND BOTH OF THEM ARE AT A STALEMATE," Present Mic yelled as both Shouto and Izuku where locked hand and hand, pushing against one another, foreheads slammed together. "BOTH OF THEM ARE PUSHING AGAINST THE OTHER...BUT NEITHER ARE MOVING!"
"Ha! Some fancy fog won't be able to beat me," Izuku grinned, pushing Shoto back. "Your going to have to try harder."
"If you think that's all I got, then your seriously doubting me...Izu," Shoto laughed, both of them grinning at one another before pushing back and taking a stance.
"NOW THEY SEEM TO BE GETTING SERIOUS FOR REAL! THOSE TWO ARE SO STRONG! OI! ALL MIGHT WHAT ARE YOU-NO! ACCK.!"
"IZUKU YOU CAN DO IT MY BOY! AAAHH PAPA IS SO PROUD OF YOU! AHAHAH!"
"Oh my god," Izuku groaned while Shoto laughed at him. "Oh my god…"
"Sucks to be you," he laughed, ice forming an ice path sneakily.
"OI! LITTLE BRO! KICK THAT GREEN BEAN'S ASS," Touya yelled out, Shouto groaning as Izuku yelled out "hey"!
"BOTH OF YOU GET OUT OF MY BOOTH AND ALL MIGHT I KNOW YOUR A PROUD DAD BUT PLEASE DON'T SHOW FAVORITISM! DABI PLEASE NO CURSING! NOW GET OUT," Mic screeched, slamming the door closed.
"Honestly, their such embarrassments," they both muttered, before rushing to one another again and getting into another fist fight.
"So fast," some other hero teachers murmured as the watched the two dance around one another with such practice and expertise.
"I don't even know who is going to win," one murmured as they watched the match intensely. Suddenly both reared a fist back and slammed into one another Solar Plexus at the same moment, sending them sprawling to the ground before the swung their legs back up and rushed one another.
"This is without the primary use of their quirks either," another gushed.
"SMASH," Izuku roared, sending a powered punch into the air and forcing a powerful gust of wind to Shouto, but it seemed as if he used that trick too much. Shoto had frozen his feet to the ground and smirked at Izuku groaned before sending a wave of ice to the other who yelped when we was stuck between two pieces.
"Dam ...Arrgh," Izuku yelled, punching the piece in front of him and rushing off as more ice tried to corner him, Shouto smiling like a cat that got the canary.
"What are you smirking about! You haven't won! Not yet," Izuku yelled, focusing all his power into his legs and pushing off. Shouto took a step back and threw an uppercut, sending up a massive wall of ice. Through it he smiled as Izuku was about to hit it before he remembered…
...Izuku had a scarily fast reaction time.
Without much effort he jumped off a stray piece of ice and flew over the wall, falling toward Shouto who cursed and sent up ice to stall him. He easily rebounded off the ice sent his way and flew even faster to the dual user, about to slam into him...until he flew right past him.
But Shouto had no time to breath in a sigh of relief as the back of his shirt was grabbed and he was flung out of the ring.
Izuku had used the momentum of him rolling to the ground to grab his shirt and fling him out of the arena from the only area that had nothing blocking his path.
"SHOTO TODOROKI IS OUT OF BOUNDS! DEKU MOVES ONTO THE SEMI-FINALS!"
"Shit," Shoto cursed.
"YES! OH MY BABY! I AM SO PROUD," Inko cried as Rei and the other Todoroki's groaned.
"IZUKU," All Might sniffed, fat tears of dadly pride pouring down his face. "MY SWEET BOY!"
The other parents and heroes merely sweatdropped, man...they were an eccentric bunch.
Ritsuka merely hummed from his spot, thanking Hawks for bringing him a drink before looking at the message on his phone. His face scrunched up in disgust before sniffing in boredom.
"Umm," Hawks asked as he saw the face.
"Nothing more than a bit of garbage," he smiled, as he thought on the message.
Endeavor had to be tranquilized. Pissed that his prized possession lost to All Might's bastard.
That man would never learn it seemed.
"That was so cool! You were like oh no! Then like yeah no loser, jumping over the wall and tricking Shouto-kun," Mina gushed as the others of A-1 bombarded the two.
"I'm not the only one who got embarrassed," Hitoshi cackled before paling as he realized that his father was the main announcer. 'Fuck my life…"
"Yeah, not as bad as you," Katsuki laughed. "You ready," he turned to Tenya who had spent most of the fight oiling his engines and running over his knowledge his limitations and such.
"Yup...so let's do this," Tenya offered a hand to Hitoshi who took it with a very...Aizawa like grin.
"Hell yeah!"
"Touya," Ritsuka called, motioning the boy over before heading out into the hallway. "What in hell's name do you think you are doing?"
"It's not my fault," he hissed. Of course Ritsuka figured it out. "He is not leaving me alone."
"I have learned much in my investigation of Tomura Shigaraki and the fact that he has an obsession with you is not safe for you or anyone around you."
"How much do you know about how this whole thing started."
"I know you are going to him tonight...but I don't know where," he told his nephew. "He is dangerous, unstable and best behind bars...where I can talk to him and help him."
"I've managed to convince him to not go through with at least four other attempts at attacking UA! He's focusing on Stain at the moment. Trying to get him on his side or whatever," he sighed, running a hand through his balck dyed hair.
"How did these regular rendezvous begin, exactly," he sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Oh...ah...well I...I.." He tried to form the words. "He may have broken into my apartment," he settled with.
"May have?"
"Yeah...in like the middle of the night and snuck into my own bed to fall asleep beside me," he sounded unsure.
"He slept beside you...after breaking into your apartment...which is on the 50th floor…" he asked for confirmation, Dabi nodding. "And that's how this started."
"So remember when I jokingly stated that I liked my partners in cutesy sweaters and stockings, that's what makes my heart go wild," he laughed nervously.
"He...oh my god," Ritsuka sighed, looking like he was about to have an aneurysm.
"When we woke up...he may have demanded that we have sex...or something along those lines…" He gave out a really nervous laugh and Ritsuka felt as if that half his life was taken away from him in that moment.
"You actually slept with him," he hissed, Touya swallowing at the vicious looks he received. "Oh my god...of all the stupid, irresponsible things that you have done! This-"
"I know, I know," he shushed. "But the circumstances!"
'What fucking circumstances! You could have arrested him, but instead he offers an easy lay and-"
It was going to be a long day.
"NOW WE HAVE TENYA IIDA AND HITOSHI AIZAWA YAMADA!"
"THE SPEEDSTER HERO! QUIKSILVER! VS THE TRICKSTER HERO! MINWARP," they yelled, Midnight smiling.
"CONTESTANTS! BEGIN," she yelled, Hitoshi shooting out his capture weapon out, but Tenya had zoomed toward him. He knew Hitoshi relied on the weapon, but it was pale in comparison to his skill in combat.
He needed to take every advantage he could.
Using his now increased speed, he zoomed over to Hitoshi the other gasping in shock at how much faster the other was, before cursing.
Of course he wouldn't tell them. Not with the sports festival being so close.
Pulling his gear back he ran to the zooming Tenya, hoping that this would work, and sent about to dropping to his knees and sliding under Tenya's legs, smirking before releasing his scarf and wrapping it around Tenya's leg. He could only gulp when he saw the smirk on Tenya's face as his engines revved up more and he was dragging Hitoshi along with him.
"Damn it," he yelped, managing to get to his feet, before digging his heels in and taking on the tape, making Tenya stumble to the ground and claw the ground as he tried not to get out. With a roar he grabbed the capture tape and pulled hard, the other flying toward him with an unmanly yelp.
"AH! MY BABY BOY-I MEAN OH NO! HITOSHI AIZAWA-YAMADA SEEMS IN A BIT OF TROUBLE," Present Mic yelped.
"Dad,' Hitoshi whined, the audience laughing as Hitoshi was whining about his father while dodging the punches thrown his way.
"I trust that our little bean is going to be fine," Aizawa sighed, Hitoshi moaning about how his parents where sabotaging him as he kicked at Tenya's head, cursing when his ankle was caught and he was spun around. When Tenya released he shot his capture weapon and pulled himself back into the ring, releasing once he was out of the red zone and getting as far as possible from Tenya.
Hitoshi grunted as he rolled on the ground to avoid Tenya, shooting out his weapon before cursing at his friend who evaded it easily. He just needed to anticipate where Tenya would be and then he could shoot out his weapon before flinging him out of the ring. He had an idea...but…
Well, it would be worth a shot.
"So...you and Ochako gonna admit your dating yet or what," he asked, getting up and dusting off his knees. "It's so obvious your crushing on one another and it's kinda painful to watch and...yeah…"
Tenya's face was filled with horror and confusion as he stared at one of his closest friends. A quick look told Hitoshi that Ochako was the same and blushing so red that she looked ready to explode.
Tenya went to speak before closing his mouth and looking ready to punch Hitoshi.
"What is going on...have I missed something," Present Mic asked, his voice being heard on the mic. "Since when did Tenya like Ochako?"
"Seriously," that was Aizawa. "It's been obvious since day one. They are just dumb and oblivious. It's painful to watch and...shit are these on?"
Tenya made the sound of a dying animal before glaring at Midnight who tried to hold back her laughter. Ochako was trying to crawl away while the other's giggled and tried to get her to spill the beans; Tenya merely looked like he wanted to scream.
'NOW'
Before Hitoshi could even shoot out his capture weapon, Tenya's engine revved up so fast and suddenly the other was behind him, and the next thing Hitoshi knew he was out of the ring.
"Q...QUICKSILVER GOES ONTO THE ...THE NEXT ROUND," Midnight struggled to say through her laughter.
"You," Tenya screeched, slapping Hitoshi as much as he could while screaming about privacy and learning to keep his nose out of other people's business. The other merely pleaded for the other to have mercy on him as the slaps continued.
Midnight managed to get the other off of Hitoshi, all while giggling at his blushing face and promising to talk to Tensei about this. That prompted Tenya to plead and beg for her not to.
"So...Ochako! Spill the beans! You and Tenya did go on a date right," Mina demanded, the girl blushing before nodding.
"But! He...I...we ...we just wanted to hang out so it's not ad...date," she muttered, blushing heavily as it went silent before the others began laughing.
"Keep telling yourself that girl," Denki laughed as he and Jiro leaned against one another for support.
"Your so mean," she whined.
"Your son is so mean," Mitsuki laughed as Aizawa came down to speak with Inko. "Holy shit! Poor Tenya," she roared with laughter.
"Ochako isn't looking too hot either," Masaru chuckled, the Uraraka's whispering at the fact that their baby girl and Tenay where dating!
"Well…" Aizawa shrugged, smiling lightly as he saw the two of them messing around or was Teya trying to beat his son up?
Eh, he had it coming for pulling a stunt like that.
"NOW AFTER SUCH A...INTERESTING MATCH! IT'S TIME FOR THE THIRD MATCH! BETWEEN MINA ASHIDO AND FUMIKAGE TOKOYAMI!"
"THE ACIDIC HERO! PINKY VS THE JET BLACK HERO! TSUKUYOMI!"
"THAT'S RIGHT YOU ZYGOTES," she roared, slamming her whip down. "NOW…"
Mina grinned at Dark Shadow who began to morph into something larger.
"BEGIN!"
