Emma: now allow me to explain the rules" the students stopped the glares they were giving Peter and looked at her "the game is limited to fifteen minutes. Individual point values will be added together to reach your team total. Everyone will know how much you're worth due to your riders headbands. Steal as many headbands as you can to increase your team's points. Stolen headbands must be worn from the neck up" she explained while the screen above showed images of the back of the bandana, it tied, but locked by pulling it loosened easy "the stolen bandana must be wore on the rider's neck, that is, the more you have, the more difficult it will to handle them. One last thing, even if your bandana is stolen, your team can keep trying until the time is over"

Laura: which means it really will be a gladiator battle

Amadeus: and since there are 42 people, there'll be ten or twelve teams

Sam: doesn't seem too hard or tough" he chuckled nervously still trying to keep his cocky personality

Gwen: so if we lose in the beginning, recovering will be more harder to lose again because of physical exhaustion and number of targets-" she starts as she tries to wrap her arms around Azari, but he stepped aside causing her to fall to the ground

Emma: you're free to use your Quirks as you wish, but one push of the teams and you will be eliminated" she warned to some of the violent students mainly Flash

Flash: hmph" he huffed looking away wondering what fun would that be in this game

Emma: you have fifteen minutes to form your teams" she announced as the holographic screen started an timer counting down. Peter than started thinking of an strategy of who he would look for to be part of his team, due to his points he had, he wasn't concerned with the position in the race anymore, only in the skills even so he only really knew the powers and abilities of his classmates, so he would most likely have to count on them, but the problem was the same amount of points everyone could see the huge target that was on him, so no one was looking for him to form a team, not even looking at his direction. This could be a problem

On the other side of the field, one of the students who been in 2nd place was going through a complete opposite position, because he had 205 points and had adaptable Quirk, it was no wonder others came to him as their rock, while only in his head he thought that, he was involved with his colleagues but they didn't whimper, but showed the points of why they would be useful to him to make the decision, but he didn't care, it wasn't a bunch of weak spots he wanted for his team, he wanted people who knew they were the best and made decisions

Laura: hey Thompson!" the circle opened and everyone can see her approaching with a smug smile on her face and dark hair waving in the air, she went to Flash "Reyes already has a team formed, so I came to my second option, you"

Flash: and what makes you think I'd accept you?" he crossed his arms with a smug smile of his owe

Laura: that's where you made a mistake?" she pulled him by his collar, their faces inches away from each other which made others blush around them expect the two themselves "I'm not joining your team, I'm calling you to mine" Flash didn't seem shaken at all, he just smile seeing he found a teammate

While teams were being formed, people talked and convinced others join their teams, Peter faced the opposite problem. He was being ignored because of the huge amount of points he had along with them being target written 'Do you want to win? Rob me' on his back, he knew it would come to this, there was no hope, until

Wanda: Peter!" Peter looked to her standing next to him with a wide smile on her face

Peter: oh h-hey Wanda

Wanda: wanna form a team, partner?

Peter: seriously? You want to form a team with me? Even with my insane amount of points?" he wasn't sure if he wanted his friends to get targeted or hurt because of him

Wanda: yeah! It is better to work together with people you like" she closed her eyes, smiling with a slight blush on her face having her fists closed that was too for Peter. Peter looked in awe before bending down with his hand lightly grabbing the left side of his chest

Peter: my heart

Wanda: hmm? Are you okay?

Gwen: don't worry Peter, I'll save you!" she literally appeared out of nowhere with Azari a little further behind, hugging the brunette from behind, lifting and squeezing him by his abdomen as if she was giving him the heimlich maneuver

Peter: Gwen! Gwen! I'm fine! I'm fine! Really" he patted the girl's arm until she released him, he lands on the ground, bend over, coughing taking a deep breath while Wanda patted his back

Gwen: well, I came because we're ready to make the Peter team take off!" she raised her arms in the air while Azari's arm up too

Peter: this is great!" he forgot about his depression and began to strategize "I can be the rider and notice imminent attacks with my Quirk, Azari and Gwen can stay in defense, Azari against physical and long range attacks and Gwen takes care of deflect the route of long range attacks, finally Wanda can be our wild card being able to attack or maneuver us more easily!"

Wanda: sounds great! Good plan Peter!" making the boy blush a bit

Gwen: oh yeah!

Azari: it is a great plan... but" he looked away

Peter: hey if you don't like it, we can rethink it. Do you have any suggestions or" he didn't want to seem he was being controlling, he was more than welcome to hear his teammates ideas

Azari: no. Its just I can't be apart of it" his friends looked at him confusedly "you want to be the best Peter, but so do the rest of us, you're a lot stronger than before, but the race showed me how capable you are and how difficult it'll be to overtake you. We're good friends, there isn't a doubt, but to trying to be the best, I can't keep following you. Flash and Robbie have challenged you already, they're not the only ones who see you as a rival. I'll challenge you and defeat you" he said as he turned his back walking towards Robbie, Seol and Pietro, who watched their conversation. The Maximoff twins looked at each affectionately, seeming to be talking by the looks, Seol gave the group sort of sad look while Robbie didn't express or show any feelings. After the four left to discuss their strategy, leaving the three being lost until Gwen walked off

Wanda: Gwen?" they looked to see her leaving

Gwen: guess he does have a point and beside Tsu was part of another team, gotta keep it close to the story, right?" she gave them a look over her shoulder while shrugging her shoulders before turning away

Kei: hey guys, saw that Azari left then.. eep!" he approached the three, but before he could finish Gwen lifted him up, putting him under her arm

Gwen: come on, Kei. Lets go step our sights higher!" she carried him away

Kei: not sure what's happening, but I like it" he smiled. For Peter even though he was a bit disappointed that his friends left, he understood their reasons, everyone at the school wanted to be the best just like him.

Peter: hey Wanda" he said the girl's name, who looked to him "if you want to go too, you can" he didn't want to pressure her to stay in his group "without Gwen and Azari we don't have much of a team.. you don't have to worry about me" he gave her a reassuring smile, but Wanda saw right through it, putting her hand on his shoulder

Wanda: no way, we're partners. I'm not going anywhere" giving an supportive smile, Peter smiled back seeing her determination and loyalness, he was lucky to have a friend like her

"Hey, excuse me" they looked to see the girl from the Support Course approach them "sorry to interrupt the moment, but I came here to offer assistance"

Wanda: hey, you're the girl with a Iron Man suit like Riri

"That's me. My name's Toni Ho" she introduced herself extending her hand to them

Wanda: I'm Wanda and this is Peter" she took the girl's hand shaking it while introducing herself and Peter

Peter: but why do you want to join our team? Not that I'm complaining about the help or anything, but

Toni: I don't know anyone here so it doesn't make any difference. Besides you have the most points, its easier to pass without having to focus on defending yourself and stealing from others, being able to focus on defense

Peter: guess that's a logical analysis" he thought as she explained her reason "okay, so what's your Quirk? Or do you have one?" he asked the last after knowing about Riri seeing their Iron Man suits was it possible or not for this girl to also not have a Quirk

Toni: she won't help us much, but.." taking her metallic backbag off clicking some buttons that made it open and show several pieces of equipment inside, several resembling blue, red and white pieces of armor, almost very similar to an armored hero "I have these babies here"

Peter: whoa" he looked in awe "wait, I know some of these parts, they looked like the parts of the Iron Patriot suit"

Toni: that's right. It was a favorite Mr. Stark ever designed

Peter: it was wore by his James Rhodes

Toni: exactly. Mr. Stark made the remains of the armor available to the Support Department and I was quick to jump at the chance to get them, repairing it the newly built Iron Patriot!

Peter: this is amazing!" he looked at the two girls and started thinking of a strategy, he had an offensive and enough mobility, but they needed other types of defense if they're going to focus on just staying with the bandana, one person then came to mind as he turns away from the girls. Walking through the other teams and students he was relieved to see that no one had called him to the team and he wasn't even accompanied by the girl who was always by his side, maybe she had the same idea as Azari and Gwen. Peter went to him from behind putting his hand on the person's shoulder to get his attention "hey join my team" he asked

"Almost everyone in the audience is foaming at the mouth for Class A. Why is that? They're so full of themselves. Just like Evan said earlier. Why are they the stars? The only difference between us and them is that they fought a couple of villains. Just because we're Class B doesn't mean we're second rate or can't win this whole thing. So, let's step it up and show those jerks what we can do. Are ya with me? Oh, goody. It's time to get this party started" said a tall average boy with pale skin, brown eyes and slick back pink hair told his teammates with a smile. Suddenly the timer rang time was up for the students to form teams

Deadpool: rise and shine!" he yelled getting the attention of everyone including his partner who seemed to have doze off after the word passed to Frost, but wake him up, he resume the ads "fifteen minutes, enough time for a quickie" the last part was muted again "twelve teams are formed for the Cavalry Battle!" having the teams with names of the participants being transmitted to Matthew's headset, he managed to have a view of the teams conformation

Matthew: I hear some unexpected combination of students" he senses the students paired up in. In the field, the twelve teams were outside the earth square in the center of the arena, once inside they couldn't leave if they did, they'll be disqualified

Deadpool: ALRIGHT! EVERYBODY PUT YOUR HANDS UP! FOR THE U.A.'s BLOODY BATTLE!

Peter: Wanda.. Toni.. Tyrone.." saying his teammates names with determination, tying the bandana to his head "lets do this"

Wanda, Toni and Tyrone: right!" they said with the same tone of voices. The huge screens that transmitted images of the field to the spectators, soon went out and replaced with the countdown. All the teams then prepared for the impending confrontation, mentally reviewing strategies, but unfortunate for them. Moments before the activity started, Robbie discussed with his team about his plan and their aspects of their strengths

Robbie: I chose you three because I believe it would be the most stable formation. Pietro, you'll be our lead for mobility and acceleration" he told the white haired boy, judging by the race he could've the Jefferson boy from Class B, he seemed like the only one able to match Pietro in terms of speed, but knowing the situation because Classes A and B he couldn't ask him to join them

Pietro: okay, I get that, but how are you going to accompany me? Its not like we have skates so we can use my speed" he scratched the back of his head

Robbie: that's where Seol comes in" he looked towards the girl, they may have been enemies during the race challenge, but now they're teammates and he trusted her abilities "you'll be charge for both isolation and defense as well as locomotion, staying on my right side creating an ice path so that you and Azari can slide and use Pietro's speed"

Seol: got it" she nodded

Robbie: then Azari" he looked towards their class rep "you'll be on my left side for proximity defense with your electricity abilities to stun"

Azari: understood. You'll be our rider. With your chains used in both forms of offense and defense

Seol: but you have another power, don't you?" she did know of more famous heroes, in Reyes family the fame of his power

Robbie: I do, but in combat I won't use it" he tightened his fist, looking into the audience looking at a certain figure, who was leaning back against a wall behind the stands, not too obvious on the details other then the black leather clothing he was wearing

Deadpool: your teams are made, right? Ready or not, fights starting and fists, kicks and projectiles will be flying! Count down! Three! Two! One!"

Emma: begin!" with her command the activity began, three teams approached directly at Peter's team with a single objective, take his 10 million bandana point

Peter: they didn't waste anytime that's for sure

Tyrone: they're not giving us anytime or space to move. Peter what do you wanna do?

Peter: easy, evasive maneuver!" he tells his teammates who knew the code to move fast, but unfortunately before they could

"No you don't!" the dark skinned boy with blonde hair from 1-B (who Flash angered with other students) as the rider on his team yelled as the boy in front who was about average height had pale skin, brown hair and blue eyes, stretched his hand forward them causing Peter's team to stop and their bodies feeling heavy

Peter: what the..?!

Wanda: what's happening?!

Peter: must be his Quirk!' he thought seeing the boy in front with their team approaching "Wanda!"

Wanda: on it!" she said as she activated her Quirk with red energy surrounding her hand in a flick of her wrist, send a small burst of energy towards the boy strong enough to pushing his aim somewhere else and causing their team to move normally

Peter: okay, now!" he quickly pressed a red button and the four shoot into the air, Toni had divided the boots and gauntlets between them to ensure a greater balance between them, Peter had the gauntlets since his arms were more free, while Wanda and Toni stayed with each rocket boot, Toni on the left and Wanda on the right. With the button pressed, the boots activated and released an large amount of energy making them fly and worked very well. The four in the air, Toni had calculated with Wanda's powers the weight of the equipment being physically supported, it weakened the girl a little, but they gained a lot in mobility due to the weightlessness

"Damn support course. After them!" he told his teammates, who all quickly tried to maneuver after them, but they weren't the only ones

Tandy: Riri!" she told Riri who was on her team with Nico and Groot as she was the rider for them

Riri: right!" she planned the exactly the same Toni did for Peter and the others, but instead she shared her boots with Nico having Tandy have the gauntlets. Activating the boots the four took off into the air after Peter's team

Wanda: they're flying after us!" she and the others looked to see them

Deadpool: HOLY MOLY! WE HAVE OURSELVES AN AIR BATTLE! TOM CRUISE TOP GUN! THE IRON GIRLS ARE SOARING OFF AGAIN! ARMOR WARS!

Tandy: Minoru!

Nico: I'm on it!" using one of her hands summoning her staff, quickly aiming at Peter's team casting an spell "gunshot!" she said into the staff, causing it to fire a mystical bolt of energy at the team while Tandy also activated her Quirk in swinging her arm throwing light daggers at them, but unfortunate for them they didn't know about Peter's Spider-Sense warning him

Peter: Tyrone!" Tyrone looked to see the attacks hurling toward them, quickly activating his Quirk black smoke emitting from his body increasing in quantity, forming a sort of wall that covers the side of their team like a fluttering cloth of pure black smoke. When the bolt and daggers came in contact with it, they were simply swallowed by the darkness disappearing, the boy then collects the shadows back and holds on tightly

Tyrone: nice one, Peter!

Peter: back at you!" he couldn't help to show his nerdy side in seeing powers "your powers aren't only good for mobility, but great against long range attacks and defense!"

Tyrone: hey, you chose me after all. Your observation is great combination

Wanda: we're landing" she announced and they returned to the ground quickly running in the other direction of the other groups, thanks to Wanda's power allowing them greater mobility. Tandy's group landed a bit after them, luckily Groot used his wooden legs to cushion their landing, but they weren't fast to enough to go after Peter's team

Tandy: we gotta go after them! Come on!" she told her team, but she didn't notice something was missing

Groot: I am Groot!

Riri: hey your bandana's gone!" she pointed to Tandy's forehead that had nothing on it

Tandy: huh?!" she felt her bandana gone, looking around to found the ones responsible, spotting the one was a rider from Class 1-B the very same that gave his team his small lecture beforehand, he chuckled as he twirled the bandana around his finger

"Snooze you lose"

Deadpool: HOLY KEANU REEVES! THIS GAME'S BARELY BEGAN AND LOOKS LIKE FARMER'S MARKET DAY!" he yelled into his microphone annoying his narration partner "TAKE CARE OF THOSE BANDANAS! GET STOCKED AND GET FU-" the last part was muted once again for the younger children and mothers watching. For Peter and his team, even though they escaped they were in the middle of the field, and all the teams present quickly turned their attention to them and everyone invested in the ten million points

"MUHAHAHAHA! TIME TO SHOW WHAT I CAN REALLY DO!" Peter's team looked to their left to see Kei screaming hysterically on top of Amadeus with Gwen next to him as Kei held an miniature Scragg in his hands and Amadeus carried both on his back

Peter: Kei, Amadeus and Gwen?!

Tyrone: hey Peter there's more coming!" he told seeing other teams approached them

Wanda: we have to get away!" as she tried to move, but was unable to "huh?" looking down to see her boot was stick to the ground by some webs

Peter: Wanda, what's wrong?

Wanda: I'm struck!

Gwen: ride like the wind, my big green monster!" she yelled as she had her Quirk activated in having a portal space above with her upper body inside "mush! Mush! Mush!" she stepped on Amadeus's back

Amadeus: I'm not a sled dog, you know and stop stomping on me!" as the other half of Gwen appeared over Peter's team

Gwen: hi there!" she reaching for Peter's bandana, but luckily the boy saw in time and moved away from her reach

Peter: Gwen's using her Pocket Dimension to reach for us while Kei has Scragg to keep us pin for her, that's a very great plan!' he thought still moving away from Gwen

Gwen: come on, gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" she kept reaching

Deadpool: WHOA, PORTAL CROSSING! DR. STRANGE! PORTAL THE VIDEO GAME! SPATIAL MAGIC IN BLACK CLOVER! BUT WITHOUT THE MAGIC!

Peter: lets get out of here!

Wanda: great plan!" their team leaned toward the right side as Peter pressed the red button of the thrusters, launching them into the air unfortunately Wanda's boot was damaged due to Scragg's web attempting to hold them, it wasn't fast or stable, but they managed to fly high enough to escape or so they thought.

Toni: aw man my thruster!" seeing her boot was damaged

Peter: sorry, but we had to get away!" as they were far from the threats on the ground, the four were surprised by Peter's former dark haired bully who had launched himself from his group and at them, using his tentacles Luke using one arm to the best he can to throw him in huge distances "Flash?!"

Flash: don't get ahead of yourself, Parker!" he covered his arm in black ooze, reaching toward Peter's bandana

Peter: Tyrone!" Tyrone didn't even need to say a word, activating his Quirk everything seem to have disappeared in darkness, no sound the place seem cold and terrifying to his teammates, but it was only for a second before they were soon back in the light seeing the stadium, the crowds and their colleagues. Flash didn't let up, he turns around midair, stretching his tentacles from his arm, but Peter was quicker pressing a number of buttons on his gauntlet aiming his arm, small propellants emerged from sides of the gauntlet and fired in Flash's direction, who did a mixture of blocking the projectiles with his tentacles and dodging them, but unfortunately he was starting to fall faster. But he was soon caught by an outstretched hand bringing him back to his team which consist of himself, Laura, Luke and Kamala who caught him before he could even touch the ground

Luke: nice catch" he told Kamala

Deadpool: HOLY! THE KID THINKS HE'S THE ROCKETEER! IS THAT ALLOWED?!" he asked looking directly into the camera

Emma: he never touched the ground, therefore he's still in" she said with her eyes closed sipping on a cup of espresso from the coffee machine in one of the concession tents in the stadium. Landing on the ground, Peter couldn't help but notice his team's situation, Wanda's boot was damaged and Tyrone seem tired using his power so much, they had reduced mobility and defense, they would have to get more creative going forward if they wanted to keep up

Deadpool: THEY'RE NOT GIVING KID'S TEAM TO BREATH! THEY GOT THE WORSE LUCK IN THIS WAR ZONE!

Watching from a screen outside the stadium were other heroes

Captain America: those kids in Class 1-A are pretty good" he smiled

The audience cheered seeing the action below them

"All those awesome Quirks, I can't decide who I should be watching!"

"Looks like the experience fighting villains made that class level-up superfast"

Deadpool: now lets take a look at the scoreboard!" the stadium screen then showed the listing twelve teams, each had the name 'Team (name of the rider)' and the score of each, but something caught Deadpool's attention "hey now, what's this? Thompson's team?" Flash's team had zero points by their name. Seconds after Flash's bandana was stolen as soon as he recovered from the fall, the pink haired boy from Class 1-B quickly went through his blind spot that not even Laura's keen senses couldn't identify him and stole the team's bandana

"Topical Class A so simple minded" he said after taking the bandana

Laura: he caught us off guard!" she gritted her teeth

Flash: what'd you say?!" he angrily towards the boy

"Its kinda adorable like a puppy barking" he says with his back turned looking over his shoulder at Flash with his brown eyes "don't really see the reason to stop and explain how shallow you are, but it wouldn't hurt"

Flash: what?

"You see, Professor Frost said the obstacle course was just the first game, it was easily deductible that they would leave a portion close to 40 participants, right? Like it or not, people want to see our two classes of the hero course" he put the stolen bandana around his neck "with that all we had to do was stay in that zone and we would pass, not wasting away with unnecessary power displays and get very useful information about the powers and abilities of our rivals"

Flash then realized the situation how Class 1-A was eager to show off their abilities after they faced the villains, they used their Quirks ahead of everyone else showing everyone what they can do "you planned this, huh?"

"It wasn't totally unanimous, but I'd say it's playing out well. Adapting to situations is a hero's job, but you should know. You're kinda famous. Aside from being the first in the practical exam, you were also attacked by that Riot villain, weren't you? You'll have to tell me about it sometime. It must be strange to always find yourself in the role of the victim" every word he said made Flash's eye twitched, his look, personality, everything, he hated this kid

Flash:.. Luke

Luke: hm?

Flash: change of plans" he said through his teeth "we'll go after Parker later, right now we're gonna wipe out these damn extras! Starting with him!" it was almost as if he was surrounded by a dark aura with his eyes and teeth being the only things pure white, unfortunately it didn't seem to faze the pink haired boy in fact he seemed amused by it. Peter was relieved that the rest of the teams seemed to be distracted in coming his ten million point bandana, takes to Flash going after the Class B team in addition with the strategy of the other class of the hero course being more long term, they probably wouldn't risk everything to go after

Peter: hey guys I think we're in the clear and-" he told his team, but before he could finish they were intercepted by the power quartets of Azari, Pietro, Seol and Reyes with Robbie as their rider "Reyes" seeing Robbie had a fierce determine look in his eyes

Deadpool: OOWEE! WE GOT US A DAVID GOLIATH MATCH UP! SPIDER VS HELL SPAWN! WITH THE GAME AT THE HALFWAY POINT! LETS GO!

Peter: right" he sighed with a small smile "should've known it was never gonna be that easy"

Deadpool: ITS A FREE FOR ALL OUT HERE PEOPLE! NOW LETS SEE WHO'S GONNA TAKE THAT TEN MILLION!

Robbie: I'll be taking that now" he said dryly to Peter referring to his bandana
