AN: Time to finish this crossover. Let's do it!
"Let's bring up our next contestants! THE STUDENT WITH DARK POWERS, FUMIKAGE TOKOYAMI!" Present Mic announced.
"And the raven with a magic sword, Karasu!" Kai added.
Karasu looked towards his opponent, casually resting a wing on his sword hilt. Fumikage had changed into his hero outfit, with was just a black cloak that hid his entire body besides his head.
"I've been waiting for this all day," Karasu said. "Let's battle, raven to raven."
Fumikage lifted his head up, his cloak billowing slightly in the wind. "I too have been waiting for this confrontation. I've heard that you were a strong opponent, so let us not hold back."
Karasu gave a slight bow. "Agreed."
All Might gave a hearty laugh. "It's good to see such mutual respect between combatants. Now then, ready? BEGIN!"
Karasu drew his sword and charged forward, only to have his blade meet a shadowy claw. The claw came from Fumikage, whom now had a shadowy aura projecting from his body. Struggling for a bit, the two ravens held at a standstill until Fumikage manifested another shadow claw, knocking Karasu away.
"So that's your power, shadow manipulation," the ninja said, jumping up to dodge his opponent.
"Not quite. Dark Shadow is a sort of spirit tied to me, which I command as my power," Fumikage explained. As he said this, he allowed Dark Shadow to fully manifest, revealing the creature's full body as a purple-black raven creature with piercing yellow eyes.
"Wow, his power is really similar to Hyung," Byakko said.
"It's so cool…" Koji said.
Back to the fight, Karasu charged his blade with lightning and took another swing, making Fumikage wince as Dark Shadow took the brunt of the attack.
"Let me guess, light is your weakness," Karasu said. Fumikage only responded by rapidly swiping at the ninja. "I'm going to take your silence as a yes."
Channeling lightning again, Karasu created a wall of electricity to block Fumikage from advancing. Putting his sword away, the ninja pulled out his bow and arrow and shot through the barrier, coating the projectiles in electricity and forcing Fumikage to back off.
"Alright, I had my turn, so now you get mine," Karasu said, taking down his barrier.
Fumikage gave a short nod then charged forward, sending Dark Shadow out for an attack. "Gloom of the Black Arm!" he shouted, sending shadow claws forward to grab Karasu. The ninja barely got out of the way in time but grunted as Dark Shadow's claws raked at his sides. "Piercing Claw of the Dusk!" Fumikage shouted, charging forward with another claw attack.
"Why isn't Karasu using lighting? Clearly light his is weakness," Saras asked.
"Karasu wants to see the limits of Fumikage's abilities," Aurora explained.
"Yes, though I sense it might come to a conclusion soon," Anubis added.
As he said that, Karasu shouted in pain as Fumikage attacked, forcing the ninja to drop his sword. Dark Shadow knocked the weapon away then put a claw around Karasu's neck.
"I would suggest surrendering now," Fumikage said.
Karasu looked down, then stared at Fumikage, lightning coursing in his eyes. "Just because don't have my weapon, doesn't mean I can't fight!"
There was a burst of light that forced Fumikage to back off, and in that space Karasu emerged with his Spirit Dragon curled around his body. "Let's finish this, Light against Dark, Hero to Hero!"
Fumikage almost seemed to smile as he summoned Dark Shadow to encase his body like armor. "BLACK ANKH!"
Karasu smiled as he let his Spirit Dragon merge with his body, turning his costume white with a radiant dragon forming around himself. "TAO DRAGON!"
Both combatants yelled as they charged forward, meeting claw to claw as Dark Shadow and Spirit Dragon clashed. There was an explosion of light and shadow that forced everyone to look away from the battle. When the lighting returned to normal, the verdict was revealed.
"What?"
"No way!"
"Well, that's unexpected."
"Did he win?"
"Please be OK, Karasu."
"AND THE WINNER IS A DRAW!" Present Mic announced.
Everyone was in shock as both Fumikage and Karasu were knocked out of the arena, which due to the explosion made it so no one could determine which one had won.
Getting up from the ground, the two ravens stared blankly at each other before walking into the center of the arena and shaking hands.
"That was a great fight," Karasu said. "I can tell that you have a lot of power."
"As do you," Fumikage said. "You were able to figure out my flaws quickly, which will come in handy in a real fight."
"And it's good to see you two still having such respect for each other," All Might added.
"…but, but... who won!?" Toka shouted in confusion. "A battle that awesome needs a proper ending!"
As they left to go get patched up, Karasu turned to Fumikage. "Should we tell them that technically you got knocked out of the arena first?"
Fumikage closed his eyes, then smiled at the ninja. "Let them come to their own conclusions."

"And for the next match, IZUKU MIDORIYA!" Present Mic announced.
"His opponent from Jade Palace Academy will be…" Kai said, only to stop and look down at his paper. "Wait… what!?"
"What is it?" Present Mic asked.
"I thought that Po was the next opponent, but it seems that he's dropped out for unknown reasons," Kai announced. "In his place will be KOJI!"
"WHAT!?" exclaimed Koji and his friends.
"I'm about to face one of these super-powered kids!?" Koji said. "I think I'm going to be sick."
"No time for that. Get down there and fight," Tai Lung said, unceremoniously tossing the beetle down into the arena.
Izuku caught Koji before he could faceplant into the arena, though all that accomplished was the two of them falling into a pile on the floor. Izuku's hero costume consisted of a green jumpsuit with a metal mask that covered his beak, yellow gloves and shoulder pads, a red belt, and black armor on his legs and feet.
"Are you alright, young Midoriya?" All Might asked, picking the two boys up and setting them down gently.
"Yeah, we're fine," Izuku replied. He turned to Koji. "Sorry about the short notice, but I thought you would be a worthy opponent."
"But, there are so many other students here that are stronger than me!" Koji cried. He looked down at his feet. "Why would you pick a loser like me? Heck, I couldn't even save myself from drowning in a lake."
The beetle looked up as All Might placed his wings on Koji's shoulders. "Young Koji, being a hero isn't about how strong you are, it's about your drive to help others. Young Midoriya used to not have any powers, but through training and determination he's now a part of the Hero Program. He showed me through his selfless acts that he was worthy of becoming my student."
"You can do it Koji!" Toka called from the stands.
"Show everyone what you can do!" Neyo shouted.
Soon many other students started cheering as well for their respective schools. Koji looked around in awe, then wiped a stray tear from his eye and got into his fighting stance. "ALL RIGHT, I'LL GIVE IT EVERYTHING I'VE GOT!"
"That's the spirit!" All Might exclaimed, giving a thumbs up. "If both combatants are ready, then begin!"
The two boys rushed each other as the battle began, Izuku going for a grapple throw, which Koji countered by ducking down for a breakdance leg sweep.
"Remind me how Koji fights again?" Saras asked Karasu.
"Koji fights with Samoan fist, which is a combination of traditional Kung Fu and dancing," the ninja explained. "Basically, it's like Capoeira, but Koji style."
"Izuku is definitely a physical fighter as well," Tenya said, joining the conversation. "His Quirk is very powerful but has the drawback of injuring his own body if not used properly."
Back at the fight, Koji went for another kick, only to be countered by Izuku grabbing his leg and slamming him into the ground.
'Geez, everyone at this school seems to have thing for grab attacks,' Koji thought. The beetle pushed the owl off of him and jumped back onto his feet. 'I need to push myself farther than I've ever gone before. I haven't practiced this, but…'
With a scream and a flash of power, Koji was radiating energy and wearing a beetle-styled kabuki mask. "CONG WU!"
"Woah!" Toka gasped.
"Did anyone know he could do that?" Suya asked.
Izuku smiled. "If you want to go all out, then I'll show my full power as well!" Reaching into himself, the owl opened his eyes as his body sparked with a green electric energy. "FULL COWL!"
"WOAH, it looks like the final fight is going to be a big one!" Present Mic announced.
The two combatants went at each other once again, their power clashing in waves of red and green.
"DETROIT SMASH!" Izuku shouted, delivering an uppercut that sent Koji flying.
The beetle used his wings to recover and zoomed down to deliver a flying kick, following it up with a double fisted punch. The owl staggered, then dodged the incoming attacks before pushing Koji back.
"DELAWARE SMASH AIR FORCE!" Izuku shouted, and with a flick of his wing-feather created a blast of air that pushed Koji to the edge of the stage.
"So, does he always name his attacks off of various states and cities?" Kiera asked Ochacao.
"He's a big fan of All Might, whom names his attacks after states and cities," Ochacao explained.
Back in the fight, both combatants were getting tired from using their full power. "Izuku! This is my final attack! Koji called.
"Then let's give it everything we've got!" Izuku replied.
As they both charged up, the two let out a scream of their final attacks at they clashed.
"BUG'S BITE!" Koji cried, putting his hands together to shoot out a beam of energy.
"MANCHESTER SMASH!" Izuku shouted, jumping up and delivering an axe kick.
The energy peaked and exploded, sending up rubble and smoke. With the area clearing, the winner was decided…

"AND IZUKU MIDORIYA IS THE WINNER!" Present Mic and Kai announced, the crowd going wild as they saw the aftermath.
Izuku was kneeling in the middle of the stadium in a crater, his mask taken off as the owl panted heavily. Koji was outside the arena, but curiously didn't look any worse for wear.
"Koji, are you okay?" Suya asked, flying down to check on him.
"I'm fine," the beetle replied. "Actually, I didn't even get hit by that attack. My own attack had so much knockback that I sent myself out of the arena." He chuckled slightly. "Guess I don't know my own strength.
"Koji, that was great fight!" Izuku exclaimed, coming over to him. "I think you'll become a great hero one day."
Wiping away a stray tear, the beetle and owl shook hands, ending the tournament not as opponents, but as friends.
[***]
With the tournament completed, the UA students headed back to their own world, and just in time for the students of Jade Palace Academy to be let out for summer vacation. Everyone had plans for their break: some were going to continue training for the entrance exam next semester, some were going back home, and others just wanted to have some fun while on vacation.
The villains were planning their next move: when school started up again, they were ready to enact their plan to rule the school.
Karasu and his friends were looking for new members to add to their ranks, with a few students catching the raven's eye.
Tigress continued on her quest to bring Denko to justice, all while her fellow Furious Five members tried to take it easy over the break.
As for the Mysterious Warrior…
It was night when the Mysterious Warrior returned to his home, having had another night of justice bringing. Setting down the Sword of Heroes in a secret location, he returned to his normal form and was about to go to sleep. That is, until another presence made itself known.
"Hello, Mysterious Warrior," Shen said, coming out of the corner of the room and grabbing the Sword of Heroes before they could do anything. "So, this is where you've been hiding out. I must say, it would be valuable information to any side if they knew who you were: Denko could try and recruit you, Tigress could take this sword for herself, and Tai Lung? Well, that outcome would be unpleasant for all sides." He pointed the blade at their throat. "So then, why don't you hear what I have to say, Po Ping."
Author's Note
And with that, the crossover and season 1 of Kung Fu Academia is complete!
Now then, I know some of you will be disappointed that the villain's plan didn't come to fruition here, but that will be picked up in season 2.
As for when season two will happen, just as school is out for the students in the story, I'll be taking a summer break from this story as well. When school comes back at the end of August, this story will be back as well.
With that, I hope to see you there when "Kung Fu Academia" continues!
