*Cyber furiously writing* - Damn, Damn, Damn, the month is almost done. Stupid school, stupid having to get ready for Thanksgiving, must. Write.

Naruto - Oi, author. When are you gonna up-

*Cyber turns and glares with hours of loss sleep and anger* - WHAT!

Naruto, now sweating - Ummm, never mind. I'm gonna go read comments

Alexander Back V: Ummm, thank you? I think? I'm not entirely sure what this means. But you read up to the first chapter.

TheeLoreMaster: Thank you for the criticism, it's refreshing to have actual advice on how to improve instead of just mindless hate. I'm doing my best to improve, I hope you'll stick around.

Gregoryoxford: Hmm, okay. Don't know how to respond to this.

Cyber: I did it, I did it. It's finally here. I have been productive.

Naruto, whispering: Kinda late don't ya think

Izuku: No need to whisper. He's too tired to think clearly. Look. Hey, look a giant stapler

Cyber: What, again?! Imma going to head out. Good thing I've acquired the ability of flight (However, the author could not fly, and he simply jumped and fell on his face. Slipping into blissful unconsciousness)

Naruto: Wow, I can't even make a joke about this. Should we tell him that it's December now.

Izuku: Let's just get onto to chapter.

"Will the contestants please come to the arena."

Naruto was shaking with excitement as he made his way towards the stadium, he will finally have his chance to put that icy bastard in his place. Nothing can ruin this moment, or so he thought until a certain Number 2 hero with a chip on his shoulder blocked his path.

Naruto looked up quizzically at the pro hero, "Umm, can I help you?"

Endeavour didn't seem pleased, "Show some more respect boy. Watch who you're talking to."

Naruto didn't seem fazed, "I barely said anything jeez."

The flame hero still didn't respond to his antics and stayed unmoving, "I've seen you fight. You're pretty strong. You made Shoto use his fire despite his stupid vow. I need you to make him understand that his childish rebellion is completely foolish and prepare him to surpa-"

"Okay, imma stop you there big guy," Naruto said, completely throwing Endeavour off guard.

"W-what did you just say to me," he said, rage clear in his voice and eyes.

Naruto didn't react to the fire (pun fully intended) behind his eyes, "I'm not going to lie, I don't like your kid much, but he's not a vessel for you to live your dreams through. I'm going to go out there, and fight him as Todorki Shoto, a guy that I personally dislike and wish to pummel, not the future Endeavour. So if you'd please."

Naruto didn't go far though as Endeavour's flames burned brightly and he leaned down to get face to face with the whiskered teen, "Listen here you insolent brat, you don't interrupt me, nor will you speak to me that way ever again. I don't offer you praise to be treated with such 'familiarity'. The affairs I have with my son are none of your concern, think carefully next time you speak. We are done here," with that Endeavour made his way to the stands.

Naruto continued walking, notably more pissed off than normal, "My affairs are none of your concern, THEN HOW ABOUT YOU AND YOUR GODDAMN KID STOP BRINGING ME INTO IT!" He yelled to noone in particular."

-The Arena-

"WELL HERE WE ARE FOLKS, TIME FOR SOME REAL FIGHTS. I KNOW I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR IT. IN ONE CORNER WE HAVE THE POWERHOUSE BLOND WITH A FOXY ATTITUDE. NARUTO MIDORIYA. IN THE OTHER CORNER, WE HAVE THE HOT AND COLD EMO WITH DADDY ISSUES, SHOTO TODOROKI!"

Aizawa looked at his loud mouthed partner, "How do you still have this job. You are so clearly unbiased it's not even funny."

"Tenure goes a long way Eraser, never forget that."

"Unbelievable"

Despite the unpleasantness that he faced in the hall, Naruto couldn't wipe the smile off his face, "Hell yeah, you're going down you Canadian flag wannabe."

Todorki kept his stoic face, "You've already used that one."

"Doesn't make it any less true."

-In the stands-

Izuku tightened his grip around the rails, "C'mon Naruto you got this."

Kirishima slapped the green teen on the back, making him jolt a bit, "Don't fret too much my man. Naruto is like, the strongest kid in our class, probably the strongest of our grade. You should know that better than anyone."

Izuku rubbed the back of his head sheepishly, "I know he's pretty strong, it's just that sometimes he lets his emotions get the better of him and he messes up. I'm just hoping that he'll keep his cool."

Kirishima nodded his head, "He can get kind of wild sometimes, and that's coming from me."

-In the arena-

Midnight raised her whip, "Midoriya, are you ready," Naruto nodded his head in unrestrained excitement, "Todoroki, are you ready," Todoroki gave her a silent nod, "Well then the battle starts in 3," Naruto's eyes began to redden, "2," cold mist began to envelop Todoroki's right side, "1. FIGHT!" Midnight yelled as she violently cracked her whip.

For a second there was complete silence as the two powerhouse teens stared down one another, then, as if on cue, they simultaneously attacked.

Naruto got on all fours as a single tail's worth of energy enveloped around him and made a mad dash towards Todoroki. The dual quirk user was quick to react however, and sent a stream of ice directly towards the raging blond.

Naruto blasted away the first wave with a swipe from his tail, and had to quickly shatter a pillar of ice heading towards him. Naruto grunted as he dodged yet another pillar sent from ice user, "Wow Todoroki, never knew you'd be this COLD."

-In the stands-

Izuku felt a sharp pain in his head, "Uhh, my 'brother making a dumb joke' senses are tingling. He's probably making ice puns right now."

Ochaco looked at him with a raised eyebrow, "Since when was that a thing."

Izuku looked as though he was reliving something truly horrible, "It's always been there. Always."

His response did little to satisfy Ochaco's question, but she wisely chose not to pry.

-Back to the battle-

Naruto was gritting his teeth as he dodged another wave of ice, 'Damnit, I need to get in, I can't keep playing footsies with this guy.'

When he finally had a moment to breathe, Naruto planted his feet and reared his arm back. He punched forward and sent forth a fist made purely from his red energy, "You're not the only one who can attack from afar you bipolar thermostat."

Todoroki's eyes widened when he saw the attack heading his way, he quickly sidestepped out of the way, but wasn't prepared for the second fist that quickly followed. The hit almost sent him out of the ring if not for the wall of ice he created to keep him from going out of bounds.

When he regained his bearings he had to quickly roll as the blond wasted no time in closing the distance between them. He made a mighty swipe towards the prone teen, but only managed to slice the ice left by the ice user.

That didn't deter him though as he didn't let up and kept making swipes at him, as Todorki tried his best to dodge. Keyword tried as he was nicked more than once while in the midst of the whiskered teen's flurry. Todorki opted to making walls of ice in the blonde's path, but they kept being destroyed like nothing against Naruto's blows.

He realized that this tactic wasn't working and created a giant wall of ice between Naruto and him. Naruto smirked and punched a hole straight through the wall, "Nice try ice cube. But it'll take more than that to s-"

Naruto didn't have the chance to finish his sentence as the stoic teen sent a pillar of ice straight towards the hole made by the blond. Todoroki took a long breath, he finally had a chance to breathe and think. Or so he thought until a piece of ice from the very pillar he made came hurtling at him, forcing him to conjure another wall to save him from the projectile.

He yet again had to brace himself as he saw the whiskered blond in the air ready to land on him. He sent a barrage of ice spikes towards his ariel combatant, hoping to slow him down. However the blond twisted his body in the air to avoid getting impaled and grabbed onto one of the protruding spikes.

Naruto grinned as he broke off the pointy tip and threw it at Todoroki as he fell, slightly cutting his cheek as he wasn't prepared for the sudden projectile. The ice user saw the blond preparing to slam and quickly dove and put a wall of ice between the coming impact and him.

When Naruto finally hit the ground he sent out a shockwave that destroyed the remaining ice structures, including the wall Todoroki was hiding behind. Naruto slowly stood up fully and spread out his arms, "What the hell dude. I was expecting a real fight, not some cat and mouse game. When are you going to start landing some real hits on me huh."

Todoroki gritted his teeth when he heard the blond's proclamation. He knew that he wasn't winning this fight, not in the least. Maybe if he just used a little of his fi-,

'NO!' he mentally berated himself, 'I'm not going to let anybody make me break my vow.'

Naruto frowned when he saw Todoroki shake his head, he knew exactly what he was thinking, "Really? You're getting your ass handed to you on live TV and you still won't use the WHOLE OTHER QUIRK in you arsenal to win. How fucking petty can you be."

Of all the things the blond has said this was the thing to get a reaction from him, "I swore that I'll never use his power to achieve my goals. And I'm not letting you or anyone else force my hand. I'm going to get by on my own power. Not his forsaken quirk."

Naruto rubbed his temples, "For the love of- IT'S NOT YOUR DAMN FATHER'S QUIRK DIPSHIT. YOU WERE BORN WITH IT. SO HOW ABOUT YOU USE YOUR POWER FOR SOMETHING USEFUL, AND STOP BEING A WHINY LITTLE EMO ABOUT IT."

Todoroki was now trembling in anger, and instead of continuing their argument, opted to rush the blond instead.

Naruto saw that the ice user's movements were getting a bit more sluggish. He stepped to the side and used his tail to trip the teen and make him fall on his face, "You've used your ice too much huh. Maybe if you used your fire you can offset it, but 'oh wait' you're too much of a coward to do so."

Todoroki slowly got up and glared at the whiskered blond, "What right do you have to call me a coward."

Naruto glared back and slowly walked forward, "What right do you have to even be this far in the competition. EVERYONE here is giving it their all to be the best hero they can be. Yet, you've been holding out on HALF your power because of some stupid vendeta you have against your dad or some shit. I reserve every right to call you what I want, maybe if you started actually trying I'd have nicer things to say about you."

"I told you once I'll tell you again, I. Will. Never. Use. His. Power." Todoroki punctuated each statement with an ice pillar he sent towards the teen. However, due to overuse they were relatively weak and Naruto had no problem shattering each one.

When he finally reached the ice user he grabbed him by the collar and pulled him in close, "And I'll say again. It. Is. Not. Your. Dad's. Power. IT IS YOURS AND YOU SHOULD START USING IT AS SUCH!" Naruto ended his statement with a wicked headbut that made Todoroki go prone.

As Todoroki was on the ground he thought back to his childhood, more specifically his mother. He remembered watching All Might on TV, telling kids to use their kids in different and unique ways in spite of inheriting them. Then his mom telling him to stay true to himself, that he was not just some product of his lineage. He was his own person with his own quirk and no one can tell him otherwise.

Something sparked within Todoroki, and when Naruto was over him, preparing to knock him out, he erupted. A torrent of flames expelling from his prone form, forcing the whiskered blond to backpedal away.

-In the audience-

Endeavour was smiling with unrestrained glee at the sight of his son using the fire powers he's repressed for so long. He reared his head back and could only shout in excitement, "SHOTOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Everyone around him edged the slightest bit away, not wanting to be burned by the hyper dad.

-To the fight-

The dual quirk user slowly stood up, his left side still ablaze as he melted away all the frost that he has accumulated throughout his body. His grin was matched by the foxy grin Naruto himself had at the site of the flaming teen, "You know, it's quite strange to willing and forcefully, make your opponent power up mid-fight."

Naruto just shrugged as he powered up to two tail's worth of power, "Hey, I said I wanted a good fight. Not an easy one."

Todoroki just smirked as he started to simultaneously use his left and right sides at the same time. At the same time Naruto go on all fours as his features became more feral. Just like when the match began, there was total silence, even in the audience, and then with no visible signal the teens attacked each other once more.

Naruto sped his way towards the dual quirk wielder, but Todoroki was prepared this time and he sent a stream of flames directly towards Naruto. The blond was able to dodge the flames easily, but had to frantically roll out of the way when he saw a rapidly approaching ice spike.

Once again Naruto sent an energy fist towards Todoroki, who used an ice wall to slow the fist enough and dodge out of the way. As he dodged he sent yet another torrent of flames towards the blond teen, this one being notably larger than the first.

Naruto just grinned and jumped as high as he could to get out of the flames wake. While in the air he aimed another energy punch towards Todoroki, who barely managed to dodge but was blown away by the shockwave made by the fist.

When Naruto landed he kept up his barrage of long ranged fists as Todoroki desperately tried to dodge each one. While rolling in between fists, the precocious teen sent another large blast of fire towards Naruto's direction. He had to retract his arms so that he could successfully get out of the way, but he still got signed from the attack.

When he finally stabilized himself Todoroki once again sent dozens upon dozens of ice pillars towards the blond, but Naruto opted to jump on the highest pillar and make his way towards his combatant. Dodging and jumping over every concurrent pillar. When jumping from one pillar to another, Naruto didn't notice the extremely large stream of fire that was making its way towards him, and land a direct hit on him.

Naruto fell to the ground and grunted in pain, putting out the small flame that caught onto his pants, "Damn, guess I do have to take this seriously. GET READY TODOROKI, THIS IS GONNA BE A BIG ONE!"

Naruto closed his eyes as he bumped up his cloak to three tails, the sudden burst of power completely destroying the pillars heading towards him. Todoroki saw the sheer power behind the form and began to power up his left side.

Midnight looked towards Cementoss, "Hey, I think we should intervene. I think they may actually kill each other."

Cementoss nodded his head, "On it," and he slammed his hand on the concrete, preparing to make pillars.

At the same time as this Naruto has already began rushing towards Todoroki, leaving a sizeable crater from where he was standing as he made his way towards the ice user who made what amounts to a maze of pillars and spikes to create distance between the two. It was all for naught however as Naruto was having no trouble breaking through the ice created to slow him down. Todoroki didn't mind though, he has gathered enough heat in his arm and began to raise it towards the blond, preparing to put his all into this final attack.

The pillars from Cementoss began to rise but it was too late. The air pressure created by Naruto's accelerating form, along with the incredibly high heat created from Todoroki made the perfect storm for a huge explosion to rock the entire stadium. The explosion rippled throughout the audience, the wind blowing away everything that wasn't bolted down in the area.

When the explosion finally stopped there was dead silence all throughout the stadium. No one being able to describe what they have just witnessed.

As the smoke cleared, the audience saw that the entire arena itself has been destroyed. Near the edge of the arena they saw a cone of ice, that had a noticeable hole right in the middle of it. Along with a sizeable crater in the wall directly behind it.

The smoke dissipated fully and the arena was finally revealed. They saw Todoroki on the outside of the arena, underneath the crater in the wall, and in the middle of what used to be the fighting arena stood a very dirty and heavily panting Naruto. Powered down to a single tail, with said tail being firmly implanted into the ground.

Midnight slowly got up and back on the podium, as she was understandably blown away from the massive explosion made by the two teens. She coughed before raising her riding crop, "THE WINNER OF THE MATCH BY RING/KNOCK OUT. NARUTO UZUMAKI MIDORIYA!"

Immediately the audience erupted in applause, that was by far the most explosive match they've seen today. In the stands Izuku was loudly cheering for the victory his brother just secured.

Momo had a hand on her heart and let out a long sigh, she was worried that Naruto may have been seriously injured or something. She soon joined in with her friends in loudly cheering for the victory of their favorite whiskered teen.

Med-bots made their way to the arena and put both of the injured teens on stretchers and made their way towards Recovery Girl's office. On the way their an extremely tired Todoroki lazily looked towards Naruto, "Hey, Naruto."

The whiskered teen slowly turned his head, "Yeah Todoroki."

Todoroki made a mental not that Naruto used his actual name without insulting him, "Thank you. Really."

Naruto grinned, "I should be thanking you. That was a pretty awesome fight."

Todoroki weakly smiled before slipping into unconsciousness again. Content with knowing that he controls his destiny.

Cyber: There. Done. I'm super sorry I couldn't get this done in November. But that's Thanksgiving time and School has also been a pain, so you know. My free time has been non-existent as of late.
