"Why the heck are you all here?"
Yuko and her classmates all stared in confusion and shock as they were all blocked in by other students in U.A.
"Do you students have business with our class?" Tenya asked.
"Why're you blocking our doorway? I wont let you hold us hostage!" Whined Minoru.
"They're scouting out the competition idiots. We're the class that survived a real villian attack. They want to see us with their own eyes." Katsuki walked past everyone as he came to a stop in front of the group.
"At least now you know what a future pro looks like. Now move it extras." Katsuki stated calmly but gruffly
"You can't go calling people extras just cause you don't know who they are!" Tenya scolded, his arm in a stiff motion waving up and down.
"So this is class 1-A. I heard you guys were impressive, but you just sound like an ass. Is everyone in the hero course delusional or just you." Commented a voice from the crowd.
"I was sad to come here and find a bunch of ego maniacs." A boy with unruly indigo hair took his place in the front of the crowd.
"I wanted to be in the hero course, but like many others here I was forced to choose a different track. Such as life. I didn't cut it the first time around, but I have another chance. If any of us do well in the sports festival the teachers can decided to transfer us to the hero course. Then they'll have to transfer people out to make room. Scouting the competition. Maybe some of my peers are but I'm here to let you know that if you don't bring your very best I'll steal your spot right from under you. Consider this a declaration of war." The unnamed male and Katsuki stared each other down before they were broken from it by someone yelling in the crowd.
"Hey you! I'm from class 1-B next door to you! We heard you fought some villians and I came to see if that was true! But you're just a bunch of brats who think they're better than us! Talk all you want! It'll just be more embarrassing when you're KOed!" Katsuki walked off ignoring the yelling male.
"Don't you ignore me!"
"Dude where you going? You have to say something! It's your fault these people are all hating on us Bakugo!" Stated Eijiro as he walked up to the blonde.
"These people don't matter. The only thing that's important is that I beat them." Katsuki calmly walked off, the same male yelling after him.
"Well this'll be interesting." Commented Yuko as she sat on her desk.
"Oh c'mon not you too Yuko!"
Yuko chuckled as she jumped to her feet, swinging her backpack over her shoulder.
"Well I have a large reptile waiting for me to get out of here. So I'll see you guys." Yuko walked calmly towards the group of people, her classmates looking after her.
"Excuse me." Yuko spoke as she began to move through the crowd.

Yuko looked towards the targets in front of her, she held the throwing knives with a strong grip. Her hands moved up and she let them go, cutting through the air. A grin formed over her face as they all hit the center.
{·}{}{·}
"I'm off Pa!"
"Doragon." Yuko stopped as she heard her nickname, she turned and looked at her father who lie in a cot. He smiled at her, his face pale and wrinkled.
"Do your best okay. I'll be watching to cheer you on, as well as the nurses." Yuko clenched her fist and smiled a determined smile at her father.
"You got it!"
{·}{}{·}
"Awe man I was totally hoping I could wear my costume."
"At least everyone will be in uniforms that'll keep things fair, right?"
Yuko pursed her lips and stared at everyone in the quiet room. The door opened and Tenya walked in.
"Everyone get your game faces on! We'll be entering the arena soon!" Yelled the blue haired male as he stood in the doorway.
"Midoriya." Called out Shoto as he walked up to the greenette, said male looking up at him.
"Hey Todoroki, what's up?" Everyone turned to look at the two.
"From a objective stand point I think it's fairly clear that I'm stronger than you."
"Huh? Yeah..."
"However you've got All Might in your corner helping you out. I'm not here to pry about what's going on between you two. But know that I will beat you."
"Wow. What's with all these declarations of war lately?"
"Yeah what's the big deal why're you picking a fight all of a sudden?" Eijiro placed his hand on Shoto's shoulder, "And why just before we get started?" His hand was pushed off.
"We're not here to be each other's friends. Don't forget this isn't a team effort." Shoto turned and began to walk off.
"Wait a sec Todoroki," The said male came to a stop. "I don't know what's going through your head. Or why you think you need to tell me that you'll beat me. And yeah of course your better than me. If fact you probably have way more potential than anyone in the hero course. That's why you got in so easily."
"Midoriya maybe you're being a little hard on yourself and us." Eijiro tried to ease the tension.
"No he's right you guys. All the other courses, they're coming for us with everything they've got. We're all goin' to have to fight to stand out." Todoroki turned back to face Izuku, everyone was quiet as he spoke.
"And I'll be aiming for the top too."
"Fine."
Yuko was the first to stand from her seat, the chair's legs scraping against the floor. Everyone turned to face her and she crossed her arms.
"Well then, lets get going." Yuko walked towards the door everyone else following.
{·}{}{·}
"Hello! Make some noise all you roaring sports fans! Get those cameras ready Media hordes! I'm about to bring you some of the hottest performances in U.A.'s festival history! But first I only have one questions before we start! Are you ready? Let me hear you scream as our students make their way to the main stage!"
Yuko and her class walked out of the tunnel, spot light and eyes on them.
"Welcome back to the U.A. sports festival! Where up and coming heroes will give everything they've got when they fight for the chance to achieve the attention of one fame and celebrity! This first group are no strangers to the spot light! Where they've come to stand after a villain attack! They're the dazzling sliding up the meter with solid gold skills! That's right It's the hero course students of class 1-A!"
Yuko frowned as she heard the introductions for the other classes. She looked towards the small stage that Midnight had taken her place on. 'No time to worry about that! I have to pay attention and do my best!'
