Not much to say this time around. Enjoy!

"Fumikage… are you sure you're ok?" Ochako asked with concern. Fumikage was sitting in a chair with one arm in a sling, and his hand in a cast. Medical services on-site where able to relocate his arm, but there was nothing particularly special they could do for a broken hand. It was still quite sore.

"I'm fine… a little bit of bruised pride, that's all." Fumikage replied.

"Still…" Momo joined the conversation. "That looked really nasty."

"Yeah man, what happened? One moment you're charging the guy, the next you're flying back!" Eijirou exclaimed.

"He took the force I was going to hit him with, multiplied it, and sent it back… fairly cut and dry, but will definitely make things more difficult for us in the long run." Fumikage replied.

"You rest well. We will deal with this in your stead!" Tenya stated. Ochako looked around the room, Izuku was the one who helped Fumikage inside, but now was sitting at one of the tables, writing away.

"Hmm? Deku? What are you doing?" Ochako questioned. He was writing in a notebook; a new one. It was simply labeled, "Espers," and also had a piece of scratch paper next to him, which had various writings, most of which crossed out. In the note book, a somewhat crude drawing of Accelerator could be seen, with various comments about his description, and some notes written on the page opposite to it.

"Ah! S-sorry!" Izuku scrambled a bit. "I'm just trying to work on this…" Izuku pointed at the phrasing Accelerator used; it was written at the top of the page opposite to the drawing. "I think Fumikage might be on to something… so I'm trying to figure out how exactly Accelerator's ability works… I just have a lot of stuff I'm trying to work though while I try to figure it out… physics isn't my strongest area." Izuku rubbed the back of his head.

"Well… do you mind if… I watch? I might be able to help!" Ochako offered.

"W-well… if you want… it's not very exciting, but I-I welcome the company!" Izuku answered, noticeably red in the face. Ochako promptly sat down next to him, causing Izuku's own blush to intensify as he tried to get back to work.

"Huh… hey, Bakugou." Eijirou nudged Katsuki slightly.

"The hell do you want?" Katsuki huffed out.

"Don't look now, but Midoriya is about to start beating you when it comes to girls!" Eijirou joked, nodding toward Izuku and Ochako.

"Like I give a shit! He can become a harem king for all I care!" Katsuki replied harshly.

"Woah! Calm down, are you serious about that!?" Eijirou shot back.

"I got way more important things to worry about than some women." Katsuki replied. He appeared to be eyeing Accelerator, who was supposedly taking a nap on one of the couches.

"Yeah… true… least you got one of those level 0's though. Could be worse… you could of gotten into Fumikage's situation." Eijirou stated.

"As if! I'll blow him away!" Katsuki shot back, appearing more and more irritated.

"Ah… if there's one thing absolute about you Bakugou, it's your self-confidence at least!" Eijirou remarked.

"And what do you mean by that…!?" Katsuki turned his head slowly toward Eijirou.

"N-nothing man! It's fine, don't worry about it!" Eijirou tried to laugh it off.

The sound of the intercom system clicked overhead.

"Sorry for the delay everyone!" The announcer enthusiastically apologized. "Our new ring has been installed, and we are ready for our next match! Will Iida Tenya and Tsuchimikado Motoharu please report to the battlefield!?"

"It's my turn then…" Tenya stated, putting on his helmet.

"Hey~ Iida-kun!" Tsuchimikado called out. "Don't hold back because you're fighting a senpai~ let's do our best ok? Nya!"

"O-Of course! Do me the honor by doing the same!" Tenya bowed in respect.

"Now now, don't need to be so formal, loosen up a bit or you'll get all stiff!" Tsuchimikado replied.

'He's so… relaxed…' Tenya thought to himself. 'He is aware we are going to be fighting… right?'

"Iida! Do your best!" Izuku rose up from his work to wish the best of luck.

"Yeah! We're rooting for you man!" Eijirou added.

"Right! I will not lose!" Tenya shouted. The entire time, never once did Tsuchimikado lose his smile.

-Arena Field-

"Alright. This is about to kick off! Just remember the rules, ok? You may start whenever you're ready!" The announcer declared. Tenya immediately shifted into some kind of stance but Tsuchimikado stood with his hands in his pockets.

"Hey, Iida-kun?" Tsuchimikado called out.

"What is it?" Tenya answered.

"I got something to say to you, want to hear me out?" Tsuchimikado replied. Tenya was wary, but curious.

"…Say what you will. Then prepare yourself!" Tenya replied. Tsuchimikado smirked.

"Fallere825." Tsuchimikado simply stated.

"Oh no… he's not going to take this THAT seriously, is he!?" Touma lamented from inside the waiting room. 'I'm trying to keep these guys OUT of the world of magic! What the hell are you doing Tsuchimikado!?' Touma thought.

"What is that…?" Tenya questioned.

"It means… the Backstabbing Blade." He then withdrew one of his hands from his pocket and threw what looked like a knife forward towards Tenya. He quickly caught it due to his reflexes, and was unarmed by the blade by his metal gauntlets.

"You think a trick like that will…" He trailed off, something was attached to the back of the blade; a black ball of sorts. Suddenly it emitted a violent flash of light, blinding him. "A miniature flash-bang!?" He called out as he was suddenly hit in an unarmored portion of his side, dropping the knife. Suddenly his helmet flew off and he was socked in the face, and was being outright pushed to the opposite side of the ring.

"Not like this…!" he wasn't able to see completely yet, but Tenya forced his legs down to grind the push to a standstill. But was suddenly lifted off his feet and thrown to the opposite center of the ring, rolling. He looked up, and had to roll; a sudden burst of energy was speeding toward him. He looked back and saw as it hit a wall, the energy faded. All that was left was a small orange origami figurine. "What… the hell…?"

"Hey, don't think for a second that just because the City says my ability is Auto-Rebirth, that it suddenly means that's my only ability, you hear me?" Tsuchimikado only smiled. He held out his hand; it was full of similarly colored origami figurines.

'He turned one of those into a high powered projectile…' Tenya thought, then his eyes widened. 'A Quirk AND an Esper ability…!? Is that possible!?'

'Tsuchimikado… stop using magic already! Every time you use one of those you're giving me a heart attack…!' Touma thought to himself, appearing quite nervous.

"Let's play with another one!" Tsuchimikado picked up one and tossed it into the air, and at the same time held out his hand, aiming at Tenya. The origami figure fell, and the moment it reached the center of his palm, it stopped, spun, and fired off like a missile.

"Engine!" Tenya suddenly burst off to the side with great speed. 'I can dodge it!' the attacks kept coming, becoming more and more difficult to dodge. He even started firing multiple off at a time. Tenya then noticed something; Bleeding. But it wasn't him; it was Tsuchimikado who was suddenly bleeding from his forehead. 'I never struck him… could his Quirk injure himself like Midoriya's?'

"Stay forced now! One false move and you'll be blown to bits!" Tsuchimikado fired enough, and more blood was spilled, this time from his own stomach.

'I can't let him keep doing this… the only way…!' Tenya suddenly turned toward Tsuchimikado after dodging the last attack. Tsuchimikado prepared another, but that's when Tenya acted. "Recipro Burst!" He suddenly charged forward, significantly faster than before, racing like a speeding bullet.

"Shit!" Tsuchimikado grunted as he prepared for the worst. Tenya slammed his metallic shoulder into Tsuchimikado's body, the impact launching him backward, clear out of the ring. Tenya panted, exhausted.

"You… were really good, Backstabbing Blade." Tenya remarked. Despite his injuries, Tsuchimikado laughed.

"Calling me it out blatantly, huh?" Tsuchimikado claimed to his feet, adjusting his sunglasses. "Wouldn't exactly make a good Hero name, eh? Too dark and foreboding for someone to support."

"B-be careful! You're injured!" Tenya warned.

"Auto-Rebirth!" Tsuchimikado called out. "Makes it so bad stuff, even injuries like this, heals right up. Can't really control it, and it might even give out at random if there's too much damage but… well, this isn't even the worst I've been in!" Tsuchimikado laughed. "Good game! I'll have to work harder to beat you next time, nya!"

"And that settles it! Iida Tenya advances to the second round!" The crowd cheered loudly. That was the kind of game they wanted to see. Not one of domination, but one where it could go either way at any moment.

"Thanks god… Tsuchimikado's magic didn't cause any incidents…" Touma sighed in relief.

"Magic? What are you talking about?" Izuku questioned. Touma mentally panicked.

'Damnit he heard me!? Come on… you can figure this out… think Kamijou! Think! Think damn it!' Touma racked his brain for an explanation. An idea popped into his head at the last second.

"Aha! It's his Quirk! Magic Figurines! Using small origami figurines, he can cause a wide variety of events, depending on the color! Like you saw, orange functions as a high powered blast attack! But it has a massive toll on his body, so he uses his Esper ability, Auto-Rebirth, to compensate!" Touma lied blatantly and as confidently has he could.

"That seems really unusual… but effective! If Iida had been hit, he would have won." Ochako cheerfully replied. Touma mentally sighed. "I'm glad Iida won though, he always works super hard! It gives me motivation for my match!" Ochako continued. "N-no offence to your friend, Kamijou! I-I'm sure he works really hard too!"

"Trust me; no offence taken." Touma replied. 'bastard deserves to be insulted after putting me through that!'

"Onee-sama! I have returned!" Kuroko teleported into the room, carrying two scones. "Here, just like you wanted!" She handed one of the scones to Mikoto.

"…You sent her out for scones? Really?" Touma questioned.

"Hey! I did pay for it!" Mikoto argued.

"Hey, if you're going to send her around getting stuff, I could really use a chocolate shake." Touma stated.

"I want a burrito with plenty of hot sauce!" Katsuki added. "They have that here, right!?"

"As if I'd get anything for you Neanderthals! Get it yourself!" Kuroko shot back.

"Was worth a shot…" Touma sighed.

"Damnit…" Katsuki clicked his teeth.

"Alright everyone! It is time for match three!" The announcer said overhead. "Will Uraraka Ochako and Shirai Kuroko please report to the ring please?"

"Looks like I got back just in time…" Kuroko commented.

"Alright! It's my turn, wish me luck everyone!" Ochako cheerfully commented, looking excited and determined at the same time.

-Arena Field-

"Alright, match three. Rules: you know them! Get ready to rumble!" The announcer stated.

"Sorry, but I can't lose here." Kuroko said. "I have to make sure that I progress so I can assist onee-sama in this competition."

"Neither can I." Ochako responded. "I have friends who are counting on me. Important people to me. I Can't let them down!"

"Everyone ready?" The announcer shouted. "And… begin!"

And Suddenly, Kuroko vanished.

"Huh…? Where did she go- wah!" She was suddenly tackled from behind, falling on her front. It didn't take long for the suddenly appearing Kuroko to pin her to the ground, holding her arms in place.

"Sorry for the cheap trick. I really meant I can't lose here you know." She sat on Ochako's back, holding her arms behind her back. "This is just going to get worse if you don't surrender…"

"…Hehe…" Ochako laughed. "Funny thing about a pin like this, if you don't have the weight to keep me down." Kuroko didn't seem to notice, but despite the pin, she managed to fidget around enough to put her four fingers and her thumb on one of Kuroko's wrists.

"What are you talking about?" Kuroko questioned. Suddenly, she started floating into the air; she first noticed when her hair started to fly up. It was long before she went from pinning Ochako down to holding on to avoid flying into the sky. "What did you do!?"

"Zero Gravity." Ochako stated. "If I touch something with five of the fingers on one of my hands, I can make gravity zero for you! I bet even if you teleport it'll stay on!" Ochako cheerfully added, turning the tables and using Kuroko's confusion to break out of the grab ahold of Kuroko's arms, also flipping onto her back in the process. "If you want down… that can be arranged!" She suddenly turned and swung Kuroko downward, smashing her side into the ground.

"T-that hurt…" Kuroko choked out, still dizzied by the sudden change of pace with the combat. Ochako let go of her and she started to float away, but Ochako then grabbed ahold of Kuroko's leg and started to spin her around.

"I hope this works, I just made this up! Home Run Grand Swing!" She let go, propelling the weightless Kuroko towards the edge of the arena. Kuroko neared the edge but suddenly teleported into the air.

"Whew… close…" Kuroko said. Turns out that Ochako's claim was correct; she was still floating upward despite a teleport. Ochako put her fingers together.

"Release!" Ochako shouted. Almost instantly, Kuroko started to plummet. She teleports back to the ground, panting. She quickly teleports again, behind Ochako, but this time she's expecting it and swiftly spins around with a kick, nailing her right in the side and kicking her. Kuroko fell over to the side, rolling from the sudden hit.

"I can't keep this up… I'm getting really banged up out here…" It was quickly becoming apparent. Her teleport was a solid opening, surprising and could have ended it in a surrender. But Ochako's quirk messed with that strategy enough that she has been slammed into the ground on one side, and kicked in the other. Her teleport was becoming predictable, and it was becoming increasingly obvious that Ochako has a much better combat sense than her, as well as being much more close-range combat ability. "I got one shot left…!" She ran full speed toward her opponent. Ochako was already in a combat stance.

Kuroko leaped at Ochako, and she in turn jumped to the side and grabbed her outreaching arm. But contact was what Kuroko wanted in the first place. Suddenly Ochako vanished, and reappeared outside the ring.

However, she was floating.

Kuroko didn't take into account that when Ochako grabbed her, she never touched the ground.

Ochako was indeed outside the ring, but because of her quirk, she never touched the floor. And as such, is still technically in the game.

Kuroko was furious now. She charged forward then jumped, going for a jump-kick, then vanished. She reappeared, with full momentum, in front of Ochako in an attempt to kick her back and out into the arena walls for a ring out. Ochako however flipped forward in the air quickly as she rose, just narrowly dodging the kick, and then brings her own leg downward on top of Kuroko, kicking her downward, ending the match in a very close ring-out.

"Right down to the wire! Uraraka Ochako is our winner!" The Announcer shouted. The audience roared with cheers and words of congratulation, as well as applause.

"Damn…!" Kuroko chocked out. Recovering from the sudden impact. Ochako landed right next to her, wheezing, looking very dizzy.

"T-that was really close…!" Ochako stuttered out. Her face swelled like she was preparing to puke, but managed to keep it down. "I-I can't make myself float for very long… you're really good! If you had teleported me when you pinned me, I would of lost…"

"…Yeah, I mean I wanted to win, but I didn't want to just remove you without a chance…" Kuroko sighed. "Trying to be fair cost me the match…"

"That was nice of you…" Ochako wheezed again, her nausea slowly settling down. "I kind of feel bad now…"

"Don't. Taking advantage of an opponent's mistake is crucial to keeping the peace. If your shooting for being a hero, a style like that would be good…" Kuroko responded. "You are really good at close range."

"Y-yeah! I went in for some combat training with a group of heroes, and apparently I'm naturally gifted with grappling and martial arts!" Ochako cheerfully stated.

"Well, when your opponent literally weighs nothing, it does make them a lot easier to throw." Kuroko added. "Too bad… I was hoping to support onee-sama later on…"

"Don't worry, you can still support her in spirit!" Ochako nodded quickly. "That was a really good match! Thank you!"

-Waiting Room, a few minutes later-

A short intermission interrupted the announcement of the next match. Some issues with their electrical equipment on-site had suddenly sprang up near the end of the match, and they were taking some time to repair the damage.

"That was really amazing Ochako!" Izuku exclaimed.

"R-really!? You think so!?" Ochako replied, blushing.

"Yeah, you did a really good job out there!" Tenya added.

"Haha… thank you!" Ochako cheerfully replied. "Hey… where did Shirai go? I wanted to talk to her some more."

"I think Misaka and her had to go… don't know why. Must of been important." Touma replied, stretching. "Or… they went out for more scones… as long as they return before their match I think we're free to leave, and Misaka doesn't go until the final match, so they must have plenty of time."

"You feeling ok?" Izuku questioned. "You're doing a lot of stretching…"

"Yeah, I'm fine. I know they said it'd be a bit before the next match started, but I'm up next, so I might as well get ready." Touma responded. "Fairly rare I get a chance before a fight…"

"Waste of time." Katsuki replied. "Why don't you fucking surrender and save ourselves both a waste of time!?" he added gruffly.

"Trust me, if I could back out, I would. But I kinda like walking… so…" Touma replied.

"You're going to lose a whole lot more if you're gonna fight me you shit!" Katsuki shouted. "Sure if you drop out, someone breaks your legs. But if you fight me, I'll blow off your arms!"

"You…" Touma turned toward Katsuki. "…You don't want to do that." He answered slowly.

"Huh…?" Katsuki's eyes narrowed. Something about how he said that seemed mysterious. And he didn't like it. "The hell are you talking about."

"It's just… something bad will happen if you do. Just… trust me, ok?" Touma rubbed the back of his head with his left hand. Katsuki only grew more suspicious, and clicked his teeth.

"Whatever. Just remember what I said, I'll blow you to pieces!" he angrily shouted. The mystery-bullshit was just making his already bad mood worse. Izuku watched the exchange, and his eyes wandered to Touma's right arm; wondering what exactly he meant.

"Hey, Mr. Hero." Accelerator sat up. He seemed to be paying attention to the matches but at the same time was uninterested. "You better not lose; you hear me? Sure, we're almost guaranteed to fight against one of these Quirk users, but if it suddenly become uneven, an esper might have to fight an esper."

"I… hadn't thought of that." Izuku commented.

"Yeah… and you can bet I'm after for some fucking payback you fucking hero." Accelerator seemed to grin creepily. "Seems like a good excuse to settle some shit, don't you agree?" Touma didn't answer. He only eyed Accelerator. Katsuki's anger started to overflow, when something clicked in his mind.

'Payback… you mean this guy…?' Katsuki thought to himself, looking back over at Touma. '…Alright, now it makes sense. This guy has a way around that fucker's reflection bullshit. So he's thinking if he can beat the strongest esper, that we'll do just as well against a quirk.'

"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll do fine, Kamijou!" Ochako cheerfully spoke.

"Uraraka! You're supporting the opposite team!" Tenya commented.

"Oops… sorry… forgot about the team-stuff for a second…" Ochako replied, covering her mouth with a little bit of a giggle afterward.

"Well… kind of hard to forget, we're all friends here." Izuku added. Touma smiled a bit.

"Alright! Sorry about that! Some of our equipment needed some replacements! We are good to go!" The announcer sounded over-head.

"About damn time." Katsuki punched his fists together.

"Well… let's get this over with then…" Touma sighed. "Such misfortune…"

"Time for our fourth match!" The Announcer said again. "Will Bakugou Katsuki and Kamijou Touma report to the ring please?"
