My Hero Academia - Under Pressure - Season 2 - Episode 23 - Alphas

Doza was in trouble.

His final exam was going on, and the challenge he faced was great considering his Quirk. The test was not dissimilar from his previous run in the holographic setting, in that he was in a cave he needed to get out of.

The twist was that he was trying to get a group of people out, and the cave was constantly collapsing around them. So much so that he needed to use his Quirk to get rid of pileups.

The problem was that some of the rocks that had fallen were still connected to the stability of the ceiling. So when he tried to get rid of them, it only caused more rocks and earth to crash down and almost kill him and the people they were rescuing.

As such, he had to restrict how he used his Quirk while also being timely so that he didn't further risk the people he was trying to save.

By the end, he was able to get them out mere moments before the cave collapsed on itself.

Doza was breathing heavily after this, even as his teacher, Big Brain came over to talk to him, "Well done Mr. Risuke. You did waste time at certain points, and almost killed the ones you were trying to save, but you got them out, and that gets you a passing grade."

"Relieved," he said bitingly to his teacher, knowing that there were insults on top of praises in there.

"Back to your classmates. Who's next?"

No one answered.

"Fine, the randomizer it is. Next up we have... Mr. Jurou."

Ryu stiffened up at his calling. By hook and by crook, in this case his sister, they were always together for their major challenges, even during big tests and the Sports Festival. But he knew Ryo's Quirk wouldn't let him be with her this time, so he prepped for a true solo job.

"I'm ready," Ryu said as he entered the holographic field.

"Very well," Big Brain said as he prepared the test program. "Your exam begins, now."

The holographic field emerged and immediately Ryu was on the defensive. A slew of robot warriors, not unlike himself, besieged him.

"Me versus other robots? Awesome!"

Ryu transformed into his mech self, but as he hadn't done this in front of the class since his internship, the others didn't expect the changes to his look.

Due to his time with Cybernetic, Ryu had figured out a way to put weapons on his robot body so that they were there when he transformed.

"Let's fight!" Ryu said with glee as he prepared for battle.

He shot into the air and immediately went to battle against his robotic foes. Almost immediately, he was able to shoot a few of them down as he still had the element of surprise via his new weapons. Weapons that Big Brain clearly didn't know about.

However, as the first few robots went down, the others wised up, and proceeded to attack Ryu in ways that he couldn't easily counter.

When he tried to take them on one at a time, the others would come in and either support their fellow robot, or do blindside hits. But when he used his weapons to attack from a distance, or try to take a few of them down at once again, they made sure they focused on evasion and then got in close to begin the fight anew.

Ryu was able to eventually get a few more of the robots, but there were still many left to take out.

"I have to get them all at once," he said to himself, "Oh I hope this works...and that it doesn't hurt much...please don't let it hurt that much!"

Ryu rushed at one of the robots, and clashed with it. As he did, the others came in and landed shots. But he hung onto the other robot and made them pry him off and fling Ryu to the ground. He struggled to get up, and the other robots surrounded him, and readied to strike a final blow.

"Gotcha."

With a laugh, he tapped his chestplate, and out of it came a giant glowing ball of sparks. The robots just gazed at it, but then the ball burst into all directions, and all the machinery in the area shorted out. Even the holographic generator fazed in and out for a bit until it regained its composure.

Ryu was also hurt by this, but his mech form just reverted back to his body and he slowly got up to dust himself off, "Yep, that hurt."

"You're lucky that was all that got hurt," Big Brain noted as he appeared before the student. "Thankfully for you, my device was protected from your EMP blast. Mostly anyway."

"Uh, thankfully for me? I passed my test, and it's not my fault if you didn't think I had something that would take out all those robots at once!" Ryu said defiantly.

"You are...correct. I apologize. I did not know of your upgrades, hence I couldn't perfectly protect my system for your...onslaught."

"You're forgiven. But I still pass, right?"

"Yes, you passed, and you were easily among the quickest to beat their exam. Something to be proud of.'

"Awesome."

Ryu beamed and returned to his classmates, many of whom praised him for his flashy new toys. Before Big Brain could ask for another taker, Ryo raised her hand, "I'll go next!"

Big Brain was surprised by this, "Ms. Jurou, how interesting. Want to top your brother?"

"We are a unit, but we are also competitive. You should see our eating contests."

"...I'm glad I won't have to. Your exam begins, now."

The program started and as Ryo looked around she found herself in a desert area. One that had nothing man-made that she could see.

"Cozy," she joked to no one in particular.

A rumbling emerged around her, and out of the sand rose a monster. At first, Ryo went-eyed, but then regained composure quickly and just stared at the monster.

Then, to the surprise of everyone watching, the monster just froze, not moving an inch.

With a smile, Ryo went over to the monster, tapped it with a finger, and the monster fell backward, collapsing with a thud. The program shut down after that, leaving everyone stunned.

"I win," said Ryo with a smile, "and I bet I got the best time!"

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY PROGRAM?!" roared a voice.

Her smile gone, she turned to see Big Brain towering over her, his well and true big head throbbing in terms of veins as his anger poured out of him. Ryo quivered a bit at the sight of her anger teacher.

"I...uh...told it to stop the monster so I could beat it...so it did."

"That was not how this was supposed to go! The exam was about you being stripped of technology and having to use the terrain to beat the monster! Instead, you used your Quirk and cheated! YOU FAIL!"

"...actually...she didn't cheat," came a voice.

The two turned to see Tonen walking up to them, calm and collected as he approached, "You said before the tests that this was about testing our physical and mental abilities in the field. Which Ryo did. You also just said that the point of the exam was to use her environment to beat the environment. The holographic room is the environment, and she used that to beat the monster. So...by your own words...she didn't cheat."

Big Brain was put off by Tonen's interference, "While I admire wordplay as much as any intellectual, I also don't appreciate when my words are being twisted in ways that are clearly bias! She had no right to do what she did with the program, it broke the rules, SO SHE FAILS!"

"What rules were there, exactly?" asked another voice, and they turned to see Kuroda approaching, a sly smile on her face. "Because at no time did you say what we could or couldn't do. You merely said that we had to beat the challenge at hand, else we'll fail. In fact, I do believe you said that if we failed, 'we allowed ourselves to fail'. So all Ryo did was ensure she didn't fail, which is something we can technically do in the real world...and so...she didn't cheat."

Tonen stifled a laugh so he could dig the knife deeper, "Exactly. You never once said we couldn't interfere with the program. Also, during Ikaim's test, you said that he passed due to 'wiggle room in the code', and you just apologized to Ryu because he had something you didn't anticipate."

"Right. So if anyone failed, it's you, professor. Because you knew that Ryo could talk to machines, which is what this test space is...and you didn't prepare it to ignore her commands."

Kuroda and Tonen folded their arms and looked at their teacher in unison, very much in a way that The Twins would do.

Big Brain's eyes were twitching massively, as he had to comprehend both the backtalk, and the truth of their words. With great effort, he restrained himself and as quietly as he dared go said, "She...passes...now get out of my sight."

The three looked at each other and nodded, before bowing in mockery to their teacher, "Gladly."

The class laughed at their gesture, but as the three walked back, Ryo gave a big sigh of relief, "Thank you both so much, I haven't been that scared since that villain almost got me and my brother."

Kuroda patted Ryo on the shoulder, "No worries, we got your back, and he was totally out of line for yelling at you like that."

Tonen made a noise of agreement, "Oh yeah, but for future reference, don't pull that stunt again. And you may find it hard to pair yourself up with your brother after this."

Ryo laughed at the wise insight, "We'll make due. Right, brother?"

Ryu came over and hugged Ryo, "Right, sister. And that was so awesome!"

"Yeah, you two cleaned up," Ebirima said with a smile to the two.

Fenella gave her own thumbs up to the two, "Yeah, who knew you two were such alphas?"

"Ha!" arose a laugh.

The class turned to see Goya snickering to himself, "Those two? Alphas? In what dream world are you living in?"

Eri was not amused by the insult, "They finished their exams with relative ease, while others, including myself, struggled at times. That is worthy of praise."

"Praise? Sure, especially with Ryo's creative playing of the rules. But to be an alpha, a true standout, you have to have the power to back it up. They used tricks to win, nothing more."

Anno transformed and lorded over Goya, "Big talk, little man. If you want to show us 'how it's done', there's the test area!"

Goya looked at the exam space and then chuckled again to himself, "As you wish."

His spheres spinning above his hand, Goya approached Big Brain, "I'm ready when you are, dear teacher."

Big Brain had calmed down by now, but was displeased by the continued mocking by his students, "We shall we, Mr. Ramasu. I think you'll find your test particularly challenging due to your psychic abilities."

"I'd have it no other way."

"As I said, we shall see. Your exam begins now."

The holographic projections formed around Goya, and like certain others in his class, he found himself in a city setting.

"Hmm...what do we have here?" a voice asked from behind.

Goya turned to see a man walking up to him. He was a sturdy man, but in a way that made him look powerful and not just bulky. He walked with an air of both confidence and arrogance, something Goya knew all about.

"I'm THE Psychic," Goya answered smugly. "I suppose you're my test. Not much of one."

"Finally, a hero who actually admits their power...and shows their arrogance. I face too many who hide behind false smiles and belief in humanity. It's so boring for us villains."

"I can sympathize. But if you don't mind, I want to end this now, I have a reputation to consider..."

Goya held out his free hand and trapped the man in his psychic field. But as he tried to move him, he found that he couldn't.

The man started to laugh, "I'm sorry, are you supposed to be moving me? You'll find that difficult with my strength. Observe."

With a simple flex, the barrier was gone, throwing even Goya off at this. The man dusted himself off like it was nothing.

"You got power, but it's not enough for someone like me."

A scowl grew on Goya's face, "Then I'll get creative!"

Putting his spheres above him, Goya stretched out both hands and grabbed various metals and other items around them and sent them crashing into the man. Even wrapping a bunch of steel above it all to make a sphere that the man was seemingly trapped in.

But to Goya's surprise, the man once again laughed, "Cute."

He busted out of it. Goya had no idea how, but he busted out of it.

"Tight squeeze, THE...Psychic. But it'll take a little more than scraps to handle me. Got any other tricks?"

At first, there was no response, then, came a laugh, it was from Goya, and it was almost insane in its tone and style. Even the man was put off by this, "Something funny?"

"Yes!" he said with a rather crazy look in his eye. "You. You have strength, that's wonderful. But my strength is my mind, where my psychic powers emanate from. And if I wanted to, I could level this whole block if it meant getting rid of you. But don't worry...I won't do that...I'll just use a few buildings to make my point..."

Much slower this time, Goya extended his hands, and both the man and Goya's classmates watched in horror as the psychic auras he projected reached the highest levels of some very tall buildings. Then, as if they were made of rubber, Goya started to bend them, bend right towards the man.

The stun from the gesture wore off quickly enough, "You think I'm just going to let you hit me with those buildings? I'll destroy them before they reach me!"

"...go ahead...I dare you..."

Maddening smile growing on his face, Goya continued to bend the buildings towards the man. With a scoff, the man jumped up and punched one of the buildings, and in doing so, ricocheted enough to hit the other, and then the third that Goya grabbed.

The punches were so powerful that the buildings shattered into many thousands of pieces. Stone, wood, glass, metal and more were all fragmented across the sky.

"See? Nothing to it." bragged the man.

"Indeed," said Goya, smile growing ever wider. "...and now the buildings are much easier to control."

The man turned just in time to see the psychic aura of Goya grab each and every piece, no matter how big or small. Goya sent the glass at the man first, piercing his body in various ways. Then, he used the wood and stone and metal and once again made a sphere around the man. But it wasn't small, not even close. Rather, it was incredibly large. So large in fact that when it was done, it was hitting the ceiling of the containment field.

Goya dropped it to the ground and reverted back to his smug pose, complete with spinning his spheres in his hand, "Break out of that."

The shutting down of the hologram proved that the man was not going to, and that Goya had won. Big Brain looked on him with a blank expression, "Very impressive, Mr. Ramasu."

"Naturally, sir."

"The property damage was high, but you completed the task. You passed."

"Battles can be messy, I could've helped with cleanup afterward...but I'm glad I don't have to bother."

With an incredibly smug laugh he walked away, but instead of heading to Tonen, or Anno, who were glaring at him mightily for various reasons, he went to Eri.

HIs smug smile melted into an expression of disgust as he scoffed at her, "Relative ease."

Anno made another move to Goya, but this time Eri grabbed his shoulder to stop him, "He's not worth it."

Big Brain cleared his throat loudly, "If you are done with your petty rivalries, we still have many more students to go. Who is next?"

No one volunteered this time, so Big Brain again went to the randomizer, selecting Wasuke as a result.

His test pushed both his shield arms and his reactions to the test. He was put in a place of little cover, and pitted against a foe that could use a form of laser blasts. Not just that, he did it like a sniper, meaning he could constantly shoot Wasuke without getting close enough for a counter attack.

"Well it wouldn't be fun without a challenge," said Wasuke after taking some hits and realizing the difficulty ahead of him.

At first, he simply tried to outpace the sniper's fire, but it didn't work, he was constantly stopped and forced to defend.

And while his shield was mighty enough to withstand the hits, it was taking a toll.

After a series of beaten attempts to get closer, Wasuke gritted his teeth at the notion that he might be close to failing.

"Think, man! You can do this!" he muttered to himself as he blocked shots from the sniper. "How can I get closer to him? How would some of the others handle this?"

As he mulled over the answers to that, he laughed.

"Oh Anno, he'd just charge forward and...wait...I can do that without losing momentum. I'd just need to...but I've never done it that big before...oh well, first time for everything!"

He steeled himself and then blocked another shot before separating his shield arms briefly. Wasuke then slammed them back together, and as they did, they grew, and grew...and grew. Eventually, Wasuke was behind a massive shield that took everyone aback.

"Forward, march!"

Wasuke let out a shout as he stepped forward, first at a slow pace, then at a faster one. The sniper seemed to realize what was happening and released rapid fire shots. But the large area and improved thickness of the shield made the laser bolts bounce off.

Eventually, Wasuke could tell he was near the "nest" of the sniper and shrunk his shield just enough so that he could jump up a small hill and then slice his foe just enough to stop the attacks. Then with a punch, he ended it.

"That's game," he said with a proud, if not somewhat arrogant, smile.

Big Brain congratulated Wasuke on his victory and then asked for another student. This time, Oshibu raced forward, "I'm done waiting. Let's go."

"As you wish," said Big Brain as he started the simulation. "Begin."

Not unlike Ryu's test, Oshibu found himself against someone very much like himself: a speedster. Albeit one with true raw speed versus Oshibu's blitzing Quirk.

The class could barely keep up as the two fast movers bolted from one spot to another in their virtual confines.

"How is the program keeping up, sister?" Ryu asked as he tried to watch the fight."

"It's barely doing it, brother," Ryo commented as she gazed at the speed battle. "Big Brain may have left out some things for some of our tests, but he made sure the computer could handle the speed of these two, same with the projections."

"It looks like they're moving all over the place, but they're only really in a wee bit of space," commented Fenella.

"That's because of how we perceive it. The hologram is working hard so even as we move, we're not really moving. Or at least, not all the time. Anno getting smacked into the wall was an example of us really moving. And these two? Yeah, they're pushing the hologram hard, I can hear the computer all but screaming as it tries to keep up with them..."

Sure enough, Oshibu was working hard to try and outrace the other speedster, while not forgetting his own style, "You're good, very much so, but I can still go faster!"

The other speedster smirked and then started the challenge anew.

Oshibu knew that he had to beat this speedster to win, the only question was how. The answer came via the hologram. He noticed multiple items that he could use to his advantage, so he did so.

"Try and keep up man!" he taunted his foe.

Oshibu stopped in front of a wall, and the speedster rushed towards him. He waited until the last possible fraction of a second and then blitzed a few inches away, allowing the speedster to punch the wall...and get his hand stuck in it.

"Ouch, that had to hurt.'"

He didn't let the speedster speak though, he blitzed around him with a bevy of attacks until the speedster was down.

With a pose, Oshibu boasted his victory, and Big Brain congratulated him on his victory. When no one volunteered for the next round, he randomly picked Hana.

Hana steadied herself, and after some encouragement from some of the others, entered the fray.

To her surprise, when her exam started up, Hana found herself in a place that was almost like the USJ. As she stood in a nexus point, and all around her were all sorts of terrains. Some basic, some rather dangerous. But the point of the test was not obvious...until she heard the scream.

As Hana looked around, she suddenly realized that there were people in all of these terrains that needed to be rescued. And by the look of it, she was on the clock.

Hana surveyed the best she could and tried to formulate a plan, "You got this, Hana. You need to show your adaptability, while also making sure you pick the right terrains to get the most in-danger people to safety first. So that would be...that fire spot!"

Without hesitation, Hana rushed into a setting that was very much on fire. Even the ground was heavily scorched. Her body transformed as it touched the hot surface, and an almost charcoal looking Hana was left. But she didn't let this affect her. She raced to the people in need and one by one helped them so that they wouldn't get hurt by the flames.

After that zone was cleared she did a quick survey and went to another zone, and then another, and then another.

As fast as she could go, Hana transformed to whatever form the zone made her and used her new Quirks or new resistances in order to help the people in need. At times it was as simple as grabbing them and putting them in the Nexus point. Whereas others, including one snow territory, required getting stuff out of the way and assist critical people first then going back for the others.

Hana maintained her poise throughout it though, and eventually, she grabbed the last person and brought them to the nexus point, which shut down the program.

"Very well done, Ms. Yasuyomi," Big Brain said as he reappeared. "Many likely would've just rushed to the first zone and cleared them out in no particular order. But you knew there was more to it than that, and used precise decision making to get the job done. I can honestly say I have no critiques for you. Well done."

"Thank you, sir," replied Hana with a bow.

As he rejoined her class, many cheered for her, especially Kuroda.

"Any volunteers for the next challenge?" asked Big Brain once more. Silence was his answer, and he rolled his eyes. "At this point, all of you should be volunteering, but very well. Our next student will be...Ms. Taki."

Chuya tensed up at the calling of her name. She knew that she had to take this test, but she was unsure of what was coming for her given the variety of the tests she had seen. What's more, many of the students clearly used skills they had learn from their internships to help succeed. But she...had not really learned anything of consequence during her time with Commander, and that worried her greatly.

However, she showed no fear as she stepped into the area.

"Are you ready, Ms. Taki?"

"I am," she answered simply.

"Good. The exam begins...now."

The hologram formed, and to her surprise, Chuya was in an area that was very similar to the Sports Festival arena during their 1-on-1 fights. She didn't expect such an open, and yet somewhat limited, area for her fight. But she reckoned that was part of her test.

Footsteps caught her ears, and she turned to the opposite side of the battle area where a blond-haired young man walked up the staircase and into the battle zone.

"Well, well, well," said the blond-haired teen. "Guess we made it to the finals, shall we have a memorable fight?'

Chuya instantly went into a battle position, "It won't need to be memorable, I just need to win it."

A horn sounded, and Chuya quickly transformed her arm into water and fired a blast at her foe. He didn't move a muscle, outside of a smirk that grew on his face.

The water blast hit him, or so Chuya felt. But suddenly the water cleared away, steam emerged in its place, and the teen walked through it.

"Nice shot," he teased, "I almost felt that. The problem though is that my Quirk is a perfect counter for yours. You have an aqua body, while my body is made of incredible heat.'

"What?" asked Chuya, taken aback by the twist in the fight.

"Granted, I can't 'flame on' like I've heard others do, but I can exude a level of heat that makes it so nothing can touch me, not even water. It evaporates far too quickly. Observe."

He held out his arms, and at first, nothing happened. But then, Chuya noticed that she was beginning to sweat. She also felt a stillness in the air that started to grow. One that was typically of a high heat that burned the water vapors in the air.

While she was sweating bullets, her foe wasn't fazed at all.

"See? Nothing to it. And since you are very literally made of water, you'll be done soon enough. But by all means, try and struggle."

"Big Brain went all out on her," noted Eri to Kuroda and Tonen as they watched Chuya's exam. "Not only did he put an opponent to counter her aqua body, but he put someone in that could make her lose in minutes flat if she's not careful."

"I'm all for changing the situation, but can Chuya honestly win this if she can't even touch him?" wondered Kuroda."

"There is," answered Tonen simply, getting the other two to look at him with curiosity. "But it won't be easy, and it's a big risk given that damage in there is real."

Unaware of their words, Chuya grimaced as she felt the heat start to grow even more. She knew that part of the reason for this quick rise in the temperature was not just her foe, but the tight quarters they were in despite what the hologram was showing.

But Chuya steeled herself once more and transformed fully into her aqua body, "We'll see who can take the heat more!"

She sent a two-armed blast of water at her opponent, who again took it head on. But this time, he didn't anticipate the amount of water she sent at him. While it still evaporated the water, it did so in a way that mixed with the continued flood of water from Chuya...and thus made steam.

A blanket of steam that filled up the immediate area. The blonde teen didn't expect this, and for a brief moment looked around in a panic as Chuya had vanished in the steam cover.

"Well played," he said with a mock clap. "In this cover I can't find you, and the steam technically gives you some support from the heat. But, there's a reason it's called a 'steam bath', especially when you crank up the heat further..."

With some focus, he increased the temperature that he exuded, and within the steam, Chuya felt the heat get to her even more.

But she gritted it out, and in the cover, she rushed at her foe and landed a kick to his head. But because of the literal heat shield, it burned away much of the water, and thus the impact. Her foe only stumbled instead of being crumbled.

Then, as if to add fuel to the almost literal fire that was burning, he increased the temperature even more. Causing the steam to slowly fade out. Chuya fell to one knee as she could feel her water form boiling, and thus if she didn't anything soon, she'd be defenseless, and succumb to the heat, losing the exam.

"Dang it!" she yelled in her head, "I have to take him down, no excuses. But how?"

"There you are!" said her foe from behind as he was able to sneak up behind her.

He extended a hand and focused a concentrated blast of heat at her. Chuya was able to dodge roll away, but she continued to feel the heat rise, and she wondered if there was anything she could do."

"Think, think! What would the others do, isn't that what I should be asking? They probably relied on what they learned from their Pro-Hero mentors, but I can't do that! Commander only taught me what I already learned by myself or from my father! ...fine, then that's what I'll use. My father would tell me that nothing is impossible if you think it through, especially in a battle-"

She was interrupted by another heat blast. Chuya got out of the way and tried to counterattack, but the heat was so strong that the water evaporated almost a foot away from his body.

"Is that all you got? I can see your body starting to return..." warned her foe with a point.

Chuya looked at her leg, and indeed she could see her skin and outfit starting to emerge from under her watery shell. She thought fast to try and come up with something, "I'm going to fail if I do nothing! Ok, direct attacks won't do anything, my father would say look for something exploitable, but he doesn't have that! Father, what do I do...?'

"Risk it all, Chuya..." came her father's voice in her mind.

"Father?"

Within her mind, her father appeared in his prime form, before his wounds, before his forced dishonor.

"I told you once, Chuya that I would give everything to protect you, your mother, our home, and our nation, and I meant that. Sometimes that means you need to risk it all to complete a goal or task. Some cannot push themselves to that level, but you have always been willing to do that, Chuya. So will you be stopped now by this test? Or will you rise up like you always promised you would for me?"

Her vanished and Chuya was alone, but his words had done enough.

Back in the real world, Chuya glared at her enemy with newfound resolve, taking him aback, "What's this? Found your second wind?"

"No, I found my resolve once again. I'm not just passing this exam for me, I'm doing it for my father, and to get back what was stolen from us..."

She held out her arms and her aqua form shifted from her legs and back to the front of her body, arms, and face solely. Giving her extra armor, but at the cost of great exposure.

"...I'M WILLING TO RISK EVERYTHING!"

With a proud roar, Chuya rushed at her foe, who did nothing but look on her in shock before countering in his own way.

"A suicide mission? Fine, let's turn up the heat some more!"

The heat's intensity expounded, and yet Chuya kept going forward. Her classmates watched in horror as Chuya's body started to get burned by the intense heat after it melted away parts of her outfit, but her aqua armor was able to keep her protected areas unaffected for the moment.

As she closed in on him, Chuya felt the intense wave of heat from his body. But she pushed on through, even as the water armor of hers started to evaporate quickly.

With great effort she was able to wrap her hands around her foes' mouth and nose. And she poured water into them. The heat wasn't as intense in there, so it couldn't evaporate. As such, he was slowly drowned until he passed out.

Only then did he fall, and the heat stop. Causing the end of the test and the simulation. Everyone looked on in silence as Chuya remained standing, even though her body was heavily burned. Her legs and back had been exposed first and the intense burns were there for all to see.

But Chuya remained standing, enduring the pain and glaring at the spot where her foe once stood.

"I can't believe she did that," Kuroda said in awe of her classmate.

Eri gave a small smile and shake of her head, "Indeed, that took courage."

"It took more than that," corrected Tonen before he turned his head. "Hey Goya!"

His rival looked at him with his typical uninterested look, but Tonen matched it though with a look of defiance as he pointed at Chuya.

"THAT...is what an alpha looks like."
