That time I was reborn as a warrior princess
Chapter 9- Sports Festival part 4

Todoroki finally was feeling well to watch the final match with his classmates in the audience. Everyone from the 1A class' jaws dropped in surprise when they saw the duel colored young man.

"Something wrong?" Todoroki asks, clueless

"Dude, you didn't look in the mirror, did you?" Ojiro asks.

"Was Recovery Girl able to recover you completely?" Kaminari asks, curious.

Todoroki was completely confused. Yaoyorozu just used her quirk to make a hand mirror and handed it to Todoroki, telling him to see his reflection in the mirror. When he did, he was surprised; his burn was gone. He gently touched gently his left side, asking himself how this happened. He remembered when he first met Recovery Girl after the incident, she was unable to heal the burn on his face. Then, he remembered the figure of Naga kissing him. Did she heal him? He thought it was just a dream.

"No fair! He becomes an even more prettier boy! How can I compete with him now'!" whined Mineta.

Tsuyu just slapped him with her tongue to make him shut up. Mina told Todoroki to sit down since the match was about to start. Todoriki sat down with his classmates and he would make sure to talk with Lucina and her friends about Naga.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to our final match of UA Sports festival! The biggest, baddest battle yet! From the hero course, the explosive man who knows no mercy! Bakugou Katsuki!"

Katsuki stepped onto the field and watched as his opponent climbed the stairs as well.

"Also from the hero course, the amazing warrior girl and our exchange student, Lucina Ylisse!"

Lucina stepped onto the field. She had a cold and jaded look in her face. Katsuki did like that look at all. It's like she was looking down at him. However he was not aware Lucina was not looking down at him; she was looking at him with anger. The blue haired girl was having flashbacks of her time as Izuku. All the memories were showing Katsuki's cruelty and bullying towards Izuku.

"Why don't you take a swan dive and pray you get a good quirk in your next life?"

Her blood always boils whenever she remembers those worlds. Izuku may be forgiveful but she was not him anymore; she is now Lucina and she is not so forgiveful like Izuku was. It took Izuku's death to make her open her eyes to see how toxic Katsuki was and how he did not deserve Izuku's admiration, love and friendship.

"START!"

"Oi Blue Hair! Why don't you take your fucking sword out? I want to fight you with your full power just like how you did with Half and Half Bastard." Katsuki demands

Lucina only looked at him, coldly.

"No." she says in a very cold tone "I do not need Falchion or my mana to defeat you. My bare hands will be enough."

That made Katsuki's blood boil.

"Are you looking down at me, you bitch?" his hands explode in anger.

"No, just telling the truth."

Suddenly, with a high speed, Lucina appeared in front of the explosive boy and with her bare hands, she hit certain points of Katsuki's body before jumping away. Katsuki gritted his teeth in anger and appointed his hand at Lucina's direction, but to his shock, no explosion came out.

"W-What have you done?!" Katsuki shouted " What you have done with my quirk|?!"

"I used chi block technique on you. Something I learned from Hoshido. I am actually surprised and happy to see this technique works on people like you. Tell me Bakugou, how is it like to be quirkless?" asks Lucina , couldly.

Bakugou's eyes widened in shock when he said these words. Lucina darted forward and grabbed Katsuki by the face, then slammed him into the ground. The blow was strong enough to knock the boy out cold.

"And my name is Lucina, not Blue Hair, you arrogant fool. Try to remember the names of people for once." she muttered darkly as she stood up.

Everyone one was quiet on how fast the match was over.

"WHOA! In one big move and the fight is already over! It's been decided! The winner Lucina Ylisse!"

Everybody cheered for the girl's victory. However Gerome was no celebrating t; he was surprised to see how Lucina had just humiliated Katsuki without any mercy. Her other fights were amazing and even was very entertaining but the last fight was just cold and vengeful. When he gets the opportunity, he will talk to Lucina about it. The situation between Lucina and Bakugou was more than meets the eyes.

Katsuki had no idea how he got there. A moment ago he was at the stadium for the finals and then he was in some kind of medieval castle. He was horrified with the path covered with bloody corpses on the floor around him.

"What the fuck just happened here?" he asks, confused.

The further he walked, the more he found corpses of soldiers. He could even feel the smell of the decomposition. Those corpses must have been there for a while.

As he climbs the stairs, he finds a man sitting in the corner of the room and he is covered by blood.

The man had blond hair and an eye patch on his right eye. He was wearing a black armor and fur of some animal over his shoulder. He was holding a lance on his hand. When he raised his face, he looked at Katsuki with a cold expression. But his face also expressed loss, sadness and loneliness.

"I should've known... that one day ...you would be haunting me as well." The man says. His voice sounds so broken.

Katsuki has no idea who that man was and why he was saying such a thing to him. But for some reason, that man reminded himself, when everyone had abandoned him after Izuku's death.

"Dimitri…" says a female voice.

Katsuki blinks in surprise when he sees Byleth beside him. She was not there a moment ago. Then, he remembers Byleth telling him to not be like Dimitri before his fight against Blue Hair. Is this guy Dimitri? That means this is Byleth's memories!

Suddenly Katsuki was blinded by a bright light and he noticed he was laying down on a bed in the nurse office. He got up and saw some apples pieces in the shape of bunnies, a note and a silver medal on the table beside the bed. He took the note and read it.

Hey Baku-bro, this is me, Kirishima. I tried to wait for you to wake up but it was getting too late for me to stay and Recovery Girl kinda expelled me from the room. But she said you can stay there overnight before going home the next morning. If you're hungry you can eat the apples bunniesI left for you. If you need something else, you can call me anytime. I left my number in your phone ( Sorry I kinda asked Hatsume from the suporte course to unblock your cell phone for me to add my number in your device :P). We can chat more later in class. Kirishima Eijiro.

Ps: If you're wondering, I am the one who you call Shitty-Hair.

Katsuki feels his vein pulsing in anger. Later he will teach Shitty-Hair and whoever this Hatsume was a lesson for unblocking his cellphone without his permission. And apple bunnies? He is not a kid anymore and he's not hungry!

GROWL

But his stomach was saying the opposite. Swallowing his pride, he decided to eat the bunny apples; he would not waste food.

Then, images of that broken man came to his mind. He looked very lost and somehow he saw himself in that man.

"Byleth, are you there?" He calls her. But she does not appear. "Look, I am fucking sorry. I just want to win my battles by myself. I know you did not mean any shit but I just lose my cool and I did not listen to your side of the story. To tell the true I never fuck listen to anyone. But I'm trying to learn to be better. Just do not leave me." he says in an almost whispered voice.

"I will never leave you, Katsuki."

Then, she appears beside his bed. Katsuki is relieved to see his spirit friend is still there with him. Katsuki apologizes for his behavior and for not listening to her side of the story.

"Actually, I want to thank you for saving my butt from the eyebags's brainwashing. If I was not for you, I may not have been in the finals. I was so focusing on winning and defeating my opponents in full power and I kinda lost myself there. Blue Hair just beated me like I was nothing."

Katsuki felt anger, not for Lucina defeating him but for losing to such cheap technique. It was like a kung fu version of Aizawa's erase quirk. And he just panicked when he noticed he could not use his quirk in his fight. He looked at his hand and made a small explosion; he sighed in relief when he saw his quirk was back. The technique she used on him was just temporary, but still a cheap tactic to wim.

"No it is not cheap technique. Chi blocking is an ancient and mortal technique. I am surprised she knows how to do it" Byleth says. " She won fairly. Lucina and her comrades have more experiences in the battlefields than you and your classmates together."

"What fuck do you mean by that?"

"If you had paid attention, you would have seen their experiences, their pain and their suffering in their eyes. They had gone through a lot of battlefields. You can say they're your seniors when it comes to battles. If it wasn't for the regeneration, they could have defeated that Noumu monster back in USJ without any problem. And you have another flaw that I wanted to discuss with you for a while; you depend too much on your quirk." Byleth crossed her arms, frowned at Katsuki.

"Hah?" He makes a face

"Don't give me that look, Katsuki." Byleth represses him. "Aizawa may be a good teacher but I never saw him teaching you or any of your classmates how to fight without your quirks. I know developing quirks is important but learning how to fight without them is also important. What if you meet an opponent with a quirk similar to Aizawa's? What if you met someone who knows the same technique Lucina used on you? You know better than anyone else the results when you meet these kinds of people."

Katsuki flinches; he hates to admit but Byleth is absolutely right about this; he depends too much on his quirk. He always believes he can win against any villain with his quirk and everybody used to tell him he has an amazing and powerful. But then, Aiwaza always kicks his butt whenever he is out of line and Blue Hair has just humiliated him by using that sutpid chi whatever technique on him on national TV. He needs to change his ways when it comes to fighting.

"Can...Can you teach me?" Katsuki asks, quietly .

Byleth gives him a soft smile

"Sure."

Katsuki was happy that Byleth was going to help him to be a better person and to be more independent. But he kinda wanted to ask her about Dimitri and why he was in that condition. The blond boy decided to ask later because he thought Dimitry may be a sad memory for her, just like how Izuku was a sad memory to him. He would ask her when the time was right for both of them.

Somewhere else, Midoriya Inko turned the Tv off. She was actually happy someone had put the little brat in his place. That brat was always an arrogant fool for always winning, putting everyone down and not ever getting in trouble, even if he was the wrong one in the story. Now the festival for the first years was over, that meant one thing; the internships. It would be the only and perfect opportunity to get Bakugou and punish him for what he had done to her Izuku. But first she needed to know where bakugou would apply for his internship and which hero.

"Manami-Chan, this is now the time to use your skills in full potential." she says as she looks at the red haired young who was chained to a chair. "I want you to hack on UA's data for the first year's hero internship."

But the girl just shocks her head, still sobbing.

"Please, please, just let me go! I want to be back to Gentle…" Manami sobbed.

"Sorry Manami-cha, That man...the one you call Gentle... I killed him a few days ago. He was a pest when he was looking for you."

Manami froze; she could not believe her beloved Gentle was gone. That woman was insane. Very insane. Manami flinched when Inko touched her face with her cold and clawed hand.

"But I promise I will give you a painless death when all this is over. You can see your beloved Gentle on the other side. That's my plan when I finish Bakugou brat off. After I get my justice I will meet my son on the other side."

Manami could see more insanity going through in the green haired woman eyes. And she had sworn she saw more green scales appearing in Inko's body. What was she turning into?

Even with a lot of pain, Tobita Danjuro Aka Gentle Criminal opened his eyes on the bed in some unknown localization. He had no idea how he survived from that woman's attack. His body was covered in bandages and he even noticed his left arm was missing.

"So, you finally wake up. Welcome back to the living world, Gentle Criminal."

Gentle turned his head and he saw who his savior was. He was surprised such a guy had the trouble to save him.

"Y-you're the hero killer?"

End of the chapter

And that's the end of the chapter.

And surprised I decided to add Gentle Criminal, La Brava early? And Stain will be there too but he will not be the main villain. And since he will help Gentle to find La Brava, that means he will not attack Tensei like the original cannon.

For starwing1995; as much I love your close idea, I already have planned what to do on the ending for the series. Perhaps I will add your idea to a sequel , when we get more stuff from MHA manga ( after the Dabi's greatest dance) and perhaps, a new fire emblem game in the next year.

Next chapter will focus on the internships and hero names.
