"Akemi—!" Akemi turned around and squawked as a cannon barreled into her. She swayed a little, dazed, and looked up to see Hibiki clinging to her like a koala (As she always does), looking as if she just had seven Nutella croissants.
"Hibiki? What's up?" She tilts her head and the white haired girl almost squealed.
"I got into the finals!" She whooped, "I was on Hito-Chan's team and got in! Woohoo!" Akemi's eyes widened and her mouth dropped, "i was in charge of shooting damages done to my team to the attackers, it was sooo fun!"
"I-I thought you hated that?"
"Well, most of the time, yeah." She mused, "But this is a competition! So I'm turning my 'ruthless' mode on!" She mimics several punches and grins at her, " Let's see how far we can go!"
at the bright smile on Hibiki's face Akemi couldn't help but laugh. "Sure!" She paused, and slowly the smile fell, and leaning in she whispered in her ear, "his orders, isn't it?"
Hibiki's smile seems to falter. It was all she needed to know.
As Akemi watched Ojiro's declaration and withdrawal, she whistled under her breath.
Daym, that's some writing reference!
Later it was decided that two others from Tetsutetsu's team would move up, and that ended up being Tetsutetsu— God what's up with that tongue twister of a name— and Shiozaki.
"Akemi, Akemi!" Akemi turned around, smiling. Hibiki had released Hitoshi-kun from her koala hugs and is now tugging at her sleeve, "Who do you think you're going up against?"
"Dounno," Akemi shrugged, smile a little sad, "But Hibiki... will you be alright? He..."
"Wants me to make into the top three." Hibiki sighed, "I mean... I don't exactly want to but... I'll try." The smile she gives her is strained, Akemi's hear twists and she wraps an arm around her shoulder.
"You can do it." She smiles, giving her a thumbs up, "Kick'em in the crotch, Hibiki!"
They laughs, and looks up to the hologram.
Shinsou vs Midoriya
Todoroki vs Sero
Shiozaki vs Kaminari
Iida vs Ashido
Kimura vs Ueno
Tokoyami vs Yaoyorozu
Tetsutetsu vs Kirishima
Uraraka vs Bakugou
Her heart sank.
Eyes locked on the fifth line, Akemi felt her body shake.
Hibiki... She slowly turns her head; golden meets blue, such a different colour, yet both holds the same sinking horror and dread.
No.
