The rest of Class 1-A stood in the observation room watching the preparing teams "Watch them closely and take not for your turn!" All Might lifted up a clip board to take notes for their grade. 'Young Midoriya you're just another student here and as such I can't give you special treatment' Jake watched with bated breath he saw the tension between Bakugo and Midoriya, he was familiar with that.
Midoriya and Uraraka had successfully snuck into the building through a window. "Careful lots of blind spots" Midoriya whispered, receiving a nod from Uraraka. 'I still can't regulate One for All, 100% would probably kill them so we will just have to rely on Uraraka's Zero Gravity and my natural strength' No one could tell because of his mask but he was a nervous wreck.
They continued walking down the hallways winding and careful not to make a sound. Suddenly Bakugo came rushing around a corner launching an explosion at the Hero team. Midoriya reacted quickly and dodged, taking Uraraka with him.
Bakugo looked at him 'He shouldn't have escaped that unscathed… what the hell' Bakugo looked at the uninjured Midoriya in confusion. Meanwhile in the observation room Kirishima was complaining about how a sneak attack is unmanly. "You're all ignoring something" Kia spoke up When Midoriya Dodged Green lightning flashed around him speeding him up helping him completely dodge the attack, with the speed Bakugou was moving he should have grazed him at least." When she pointed this out the others looked back at him in shock "doesn't he have no control over his quirk?" Ashido asked 'hmm inturiging' All might began to pay closer attention to his protege
Midoriya rose from the ground to face Bakugo who had a confused look on his face before snarling. "So were you lying about having no control over your quirk" He launched another explosion this time catechin midoriya destroying his hood completely. "What?" Midoriya was confused but he quickly turned to Uraraka "Quickly go find Iida" She stood and nodded before beginning to run deeper into the building.
Bakugo snarled "Fine ignore me, I can't cause too much damage without being disqualified" He readeid his next attack. "I'LL ONLY MESS YOU UP ENOUGH TO NOT BE DISQUALIFIED!" Bakugo reared back his attack 'If I'm Right he should lead with a right hook' and as if midoriya's thought brought forth the action Bakugo launched a fiery right hook at him.
Suddenly Midoriya Crapped Bakugo's wrist before twisting so his back was against the living bomb the Midoriya threw him over his shoulder. 'Did Deku predict my moves?!' Bakugo had the wind knocked out of him when he hit the ground.
MIdoriya had a determined look on his face as he stared at Bakugo. "Kacchan you almost always lead with a right hook, I would know. I've analyzed heros, villians, and other people's quirks. Their flaws, strengths, unusual uses all in my notebook." Midoriya righted his stance to be standing at his full height. "The one you blew up and threw out the window, but I'm no longer you punching! Nor am I a worthless Deku. The name Deku WILL BE THE NAME OF A HERO!" Midoriya shouted as Bakugo growled at him. Down the Hall Uraraka heard him shout and blushed lightly 'Did he say that because of what I said about the Nickname?' she cut these thoughts out of her mind to focus on the trial in front of her.
Bakugou flew forward and delivered a kick towards Midoriya's head as it connected he brought his hands up. As the smoke cleared bakugou saw the caputape was nearly around his ankle. 'Good thing I read through my notebooks. Knowing Kacchan he will rage and charge me' suddenly Bakugo blasted forward as midoriya diced out of the way. 'His usual right hook! I had him but time to show what I'm made of!' Midoriya takes a deep breath calming his nerves pushing back his nervousness allowing him to take in the situation better. Iida was saying something to Bakugo through their com but bakugou turned him off.
In that moment midoriya saw a moment where he could break off combate and rethink his plan so he did, he booked it down the hall. "GET BACK HERE DEKU! It must have been fun hiding your quirk from me, laughing at me behind my back. BRING IT ON WITH OR WITHOUT A QUIRK I'LL STILL CRUSH YOU!" Midoriya sighs. He figured Bakugo would be pisse about him having a quirk now, but is this mad? Jeez
'Bakugo came straight for me and ignored Uraraka, it should have been Iida to be the attack with his superior mobility, or if both of them came at us from the start our chances of winning would have been very low. If Uraraka can capture the weapon then we have a chance, I just have to distract Kacchan long enough for her to g\touch the bomb. I just need to look out for his palms' MIdoriya remembers back at his old school how he told Bakugo he didn't want to compete. 'I. . . TAKE IT ALL BACK!'
Uraraka Peeked around the pillar to see Iida standing in the middle of the room with the weapon. 'Found ya, now to stay hidden until Deku shows up' Iida was currently mumbling "Bakugo has a… Natural cause for making trouble making this exercise perfect for him. I guess I must also take to my role" Iida raised his hand to his face and as he lowered it he released an 'evil' laugh. "I AM THE ULTIMATE EVIL" he was almost shouting.
Uraraka Tried to hold in a laugh at the face Iida was making, and failed revealing herself to the 'Villian'. "Ah, Uraraka You've arrived. I Calculated as much Since Bakugo ran off, but if you have noticed I have removed every object that you could use your quirk on!" Iida let out another attempt at a Villain's laugh. Uraraka lifted her hand to her ear piece to contact Deku.
MIdoriya was contemplating a way to defeat Bakugo when he heard Urarakas voice from the communicator. "Deku" She spoke to see if he could hear her. "Yes Uraraka" Midoriyas voice was calm when he was actually slightly panicking on the inside. "I found the weapon but Iida found me, sorry" She said apologetically Midoriya began to think "Hey Uraraka where are you?" He asked "Center of the Fifth floor" Midoriya looked up at the ceiling 'Right above me!'
'We only have a little time left and if the cloak runs out it's their win!' "I'm all loaded up" Bakugo's voice cut through Midoriya's inner ramblings. Why aren't you using it? Are you mocking me!" Bakugos voice raised a little bit but not enough to be shouting. Midoriya used the breathing Technique Jake taught him at the entrance exam before looking at Bakugo "I'm not afraid of you anymore" Bakugo continued to glare at Midoriya "Guessing you know this from all your stalking but my palms secrete a nitroglycerin-like substance allowing me to create explosions in my palms.
Bakugo raised his gauntlet And pulled back on the lever of the gauntlets. "Assuming they honored mydesinge's requests this gauntlet has been storing that fluid" Bakugo Snarled At Midoriya "Young Bakugo stop right now, you're going to kill him!" all Might shouted through the speakers "He'll be fine as long as he dodges "Midoriya you got this!" MIdoriya Heard Jake shout through all might's microphone, then Bakugo Pulled the pin.
The green lightning covered midoriya as he raised his right hand, his ring and middle finger curled behind his thumb, he then grabbed his wrist to hold it in place. As the explosion traveled down the hall-witch to midoriya it felt like hours- He waited keeping his breath steady, his focus sharpened. At the last possible second his quirk flared up around his fingers Before a scream was heard "SMASH!" The camera went on the fritz as the rest of class 1-A watched with bated breath.
Jake stared at the screen some of his classmates still slightly shocked from his shout for Midoriya. "I thought this was just practice!?" Kirishim was almost yelling. It took all of Jake's self control to not rush out there to see if his friend was dead, but he had faith in Midoriya, Then the camr's feed returned. There stood Midoriya, his right hand still held within his left, the right arm of his costume completely gone. Everything behind Midoriya was completly unscated besides the windows. The class could tell that his fingers were broken MIdoriya stumbled before squaring his stance.
"So you finally used your quirk, now I can beat you at your strongest." Bakugo looked almost feral but behind that he was shocked that the most his attack did was leave a few burn marks on his costume. "They" Midoriya took a shaky breath "gave you that" The two stared each other down as All MIght spoke up "Bakugo if you use that attack again your team will be disqualified" Bakugo made a sound signaling he understood before the two continued thier stare down.
*earlier*
Uraraka dashed forward using her quirk of herself, this was her chance to get the bomb and win the match. "I will not allow it!" Iida shouted then Uraraka hoped over Iida shocking him "You can use your Quirk on yourself!?" "Release!" Uraraka said as she brought her hands together and then began to fall towards the weapon.
Suddenly Iida sped up and grabbed the weapon and moved it out of the way and Uraraka his the floor before rolling to a stop against the wall.
Back with Midoriya and Bakugo, Bakugo began to move. He charged forward Midoriya went for a non-powered up punch but Bakugo blasted over him and launched an explosion towards Midoriya's back. "Uraraka where are you?" "Oh you're ignoring me eh?" Bakugo tried to get Midoriya's attention but he kept it focused on Uraraka "The window by the Pillar got it, now just wait for my signal you'll know it when you see it."
In the observation room Todoroki spoke up "He used the first explosion to feint and simultaneously change his attack, then Immediately followed it up with a second explosion."
Yaoyorozu nodded as she spoke up "He doesn't seem like one to think but that technique was fairly intricate" Kaminari sighed "Damn he's good." Jake then spoke up "Don't count Midoriya out just yet, Bakugo may be naturally talented at combate but little green over there is a thinker, If there's a problem he will find a way around or through it." All might glanced at Jake as he spoke before returning his attention back to the fight.
Bakugo Just slammed Midoriya Into the ground after delivering a right hook to his side. Midoriya stood up and backed away to try and give him time to prepare for his plan. "WHY HAVE YOU STOPPED USING YOUR QUIRK! YOU"RE MOCKING ME! EVER SINCE WE WERE KIDS1" Bakugo shouted at Midoriya "you're Wrong" Midoriya said "I KNOW YOUR LOOKING DOWN ON ME!" Midoriya looked up at him "It's because you're so awesome I wanna beat you!" midoriya began to raise his voice.
They began to charge each other "I WANNA WIN! I WANNA BEAT YOU, YOU IDIOT!" MIdoriya shouted, cocking his arm back, green lightning flaring around his body.
Bakugo snarled "STOP LOOKIN' AT ME LIKE THAT, YOU DAMN NERD!"
"DETROIT" MIdoriys arm gave off a shockwave as power charged up in it "BOTH OF YOU STOP THI-" All MIght began "URARAKA NOW!" Midoriya shouted "Okay!" Uraraka then threw herself onto a pillar.
"SMASH!" Bakugo's explosion got a direct hit, but Midoriya had changed the angle of his punch so it was an upward strike launching a huge gust of wind blowing apart the ceiling Up in the room with the weapon the pillar Urarak was holding broke off "Improvised Special move, COMET HOME RUN!" Uraraka shouted as she swung the pillar She then removed her gravity as she hoped over Iida Landing on the weapon "N-NO!" Iida screamed.
All Might was shocked before she spoke into his Microphone "Hero team… WIIINS!" Bakugo stared at Midoriya in shock "from the start, YOU'VE BEEN MOCKING ME FROM THE START!" Bakugo yelled at him. The smoke cleared enough for him to see Midoriya's broken arm. "I didn't want to use it, but at the start it activated in it's own.: The smoke cleared showing Midoriya's pained face. "But I Noticed it it didn't hurt me, I'm closer to controlling this power, but I still have none." Bakugo then saw his left arm which he had used to block his attack
Midoriya stumbled a bit before he rose up barely conscious. Bakugo looked shocked at midoriya like his whole view of him had been shattered then half heartedly but back together. Medical boots rushed out to Midoriya when they got there he stumbled into the stretcher before finally passing out from pain.
Bakugo looked at his right hand 'he read me like an open book he knew what I was gonna do the moment I took one step' Bakugo began to breathe faster. 'In other words, even in a full on fight I TOTALLY LOST TO DEKU' Bakugo was full on hyperventilating Suddenly A large hand rested on his shoulder "Lets head back Bakugo, time for you're grading. Weather you win or lose you can come out ahead by learning from the experience"
*Time Skip after Yaoyorozu explains why Iida was the M.V.P and Todoroki Destroys the other Team because I am Lazy and It felt regurgitated*
Jake was Walking through the Halls of the Building With Kia When they reached the weapon Kia turned towards him. "All right We're up against Jiro and Kaminari, did I get their names right?" Jake Smiled "Yup, So we have to worry about electricity and shockwaves… I'm at a loss here. My quirk is more suited for mobility, a small space like this is not suitable for my fighting style." Kia sighed "I'm a little worried that Kaminari will overload my tech but I haven't found the overload point yes so, Guess we'll find out."
Jake and Kia stayed Stationed with the weapon and waited for the 'Heros' to come to them. Kia set up a small turret at each door. Out of the pack on her back two-non lethal-cannons were protruding from her shoulders while she had her hands up ready for a fight. Jake was attached to the ceiling using his whips. He had blue crack flowing down his body and his eyes were glowing, but his hands were a solid blue.
After what felt like hours there were quiet sounds coming from a door. "Are you sure they are in here?" Kaminari asked "Positive I can hear their Breathing" Jiro responded. It went quiet and then the door was kicked open "1.3 million volts!" Was heard as the turrets went off Kia let loose a scream as all her gadgets turned off and she was unable to do anything As Jiro tied the capture tape around her.
"Young Rosario and Young Kaminari Are Eliminated!" Jiro Snapped back to where she left Kaminari-who was in his Idiot mode-and saw Jake standing there ready to charge her. Her ear Jack quickly went to her boot before launching a sound wave at Him keeping him in place as she backed up towards the weapon.
Inside the Observation room people were Idoly talking. "Man I totally Jake And Kia Had them" Uraraka Said to Iida. "It appears that this match leaned towards the Hero team." Iida said. Tsu brought her finger to her chin "though why didn't Jake go for Jiro?" "Maybe he already committed to the drop." Sero Said "I know how that feels" he lightly shuddered.
Jake watched as Jiro began to make her way to the bomb. He quickly tried to Launch a whip at her but it was too late she had touched the bomb. Jiro stopped using her quirk as her team was announced the winner. Jake looked over at Kia who hadn't moved since Kaminari shorsurcited her gear.
"Stuck there" He asked with a light smirk under his mask. "Yea I have a device that lowers the weight of all this stuff, makes it easier to move in" She sounded embarrassed. Jake helped her up after retrieving the turrets "Jeez you weren't kidding'" Jake had his mask down now and his goggles on his forehead. He looked at her with a sly smirk. "Maybe lay off the pastries" Kia looked at him very fast "WHY THE HECK WOULD YOU SAY THAT!?" She shouted as they walked behind Jiro who was helping Kaminari.
"You just risked your life, you're lucky I can't move" Kia grumbled. Jiro turned to look back at them "you know kia, you're a lot more lively when it's just you and him or someone else who is in your little friend group. Why is that?" Kia looked down "I've never been that good with people, but they easily got me to open up and are trying to get me to warm up to the rest of you."
Jiro looked at them and gave a soft smile "That's sweet" the rest of the walk back was quiet, and Jake didn't pay attention to who was the M.V.P but he was pretty sure it was Jiro. After a while by the end of the day Midoriya came back and the class swarmed him. Uraraka who had gotten back from doing a favor for a teacher, they were talking and Kaminari was hitting on Uraraka but she Ignored him when she saw Midoriya.
"Hey Deku, didn't you go to get healed?" she asked worriedly. "Yea, but I was too exhausted to get it fully healed. He then looked around the room "Where's Kacchan?" He asked. Kirishima then spoke up "you mean Bakugo?" Midoriya Nodded "He left just a bit ago." And he was gone. Jake sighed. He could get used to this. He suddenly felt a murderous aura. He slowly faced the direction it came from and saw Kia.
"Hey Jake, remember what you said after the battle training" He nodded "Sorry?" He said while grabbing his bag and running "GET BACK HERE!" Kia screamed her own bag on. "I SAID I WAS SORRY!"
HEYO I feel really good about this chapter though I Jake and Kia's trail felt a little rushed, anyway things are gonna get exciting soon, The USJ arc is going to be VERY different. But anyway I feel like my writing is getting better. I would greatly appreciate fight scean tips as I am not very good at those.
RUNIC OUT
P.S. stay safe
