Chapter 11: Explosions
A/N: Hey guys back here again for the next chapter, honestly, I know how one of these fights are gonna play out... the other I may just wing it! SOO
Enjoy!
"So, what are the chances that this is gonna be not one-sided?" Kaminari asks as me and Izuku are both walking out of the tunnels heading to the ring. "Honestly slim, Izuku is possibly stronger than Sen when both of them are maxed out, but Sen has experience and skill"
Momo says taking notes of the fight for not only Izuku but for me as well. Meanwhile back in New York, "Mr. Stark its Sen versus the boy with green lightning!" Tony now is fully invested in the sports festival and is sitting on the couch with everyone else.
"Well, if this kid is as powerful as we think he is, and if Sen gave him some training, I feel like I know where this is going." Tony says with a chuckle. "Hey Izuku I know that this is very serious for us both, so let me tell you this."
He looks at me as Midnight goes to start the match. "Hmm?" "Oh? What's this? Seems Sen is going to impart some wisdom upon our lean mean green machine!" Mic says curious as well to what I am about to say. "Begin!" As soon as Midnight announces I arc my electricity around my body in certain areas just like Izuku does. "I am going to teach you a tad bit more, so think of this as a training match... but make no mistake I am going to be trying my hardest." I say as I charge up the muscles in my leg with a good shock and charge in at Izuku as he does the same and we collide in the middle.
"So, it starts!" Todoroki finally says, he has been fixated on watching my match to see what exactly am I talking about, Izuku in a league all his own? "Bolts is toying with Deku! Ha!" "Hell No! Sen is trying to better his own opponent his friend" Kaminari says as me and Izuku are currently in a stale mate, hands collided, with fingers interlocked, as our legs are charged up. "So, watch what I do and see if you pick up on it!" I tell Izuku before breaking the stalemate by charging up my arms and more yellow sparks come flying off me.
"Woah! Who knew Sen is so versatile! He is fighting Midoriya on even term!" "No if you watch closely, Sen is trying to show him something. Erasure says watching closely as even All Might is raising a brow at me. "Huh what?" I say physically man handling Izuku grabbing his wrist and flinging him over my shoulder like he is a paperweight. "Oooh!" Jirou winces it is a harsh toss as Izuku's body makes an indent into the concrete.
"Can you tell me what I did?" I ask him before charging him again causing another stalemate only my legs sparked up again. "Your sparks, they moved to more than just your legs!" I nod, sometimes I swear he thinks his quirk isn't really his or that he is more fragile than he thinks. "Yes, now tell me" I do the same thing again but instead of tossing him I start a jab combo before round house kicking him, keeping the pressure on him. "What is my quirk?"
"What is going on down there?! Sen is knowing laying into the Green Machine!" "Y-your quirk?! What does this have to d-" I cut him off with a jab to the jaw sparks starting to slowly fly more off my body and spreading all over it trying to give him a hint. "It is a hint buddy" Izuku takes a breath and charges his legs to his max potential to out maneuver me, he is buying himself time to think.
'His quirk is called Current it lets him manipulate the electrical currents in his entire body to augment himself, as well as harness it for long range attacks and be immune to most electrical based attacks...' He thinks as he watches the sparks envelope my body as a light goes off behind those eyes and he goes in for the attack now with his superior speed.
"Deku isn't playing defense anymore?! He is faster but he doesn't have the power behind his punches!" Uraraka says worried for him as Momo is scribbling faster as Jirou is the only one to notice Izuku's green lightning is slowly moving up from his legs to his waist and moving slowly to his arms.
"Woah youre fast Izuku!" I say amping up my electrical augment as well my body slowly starting to scream at me knowing I am out of practice with this element of my quirk as I dodge Izuku's hits and my augmented full body can barely feel his hits when he does land a punch. "Even when he lands a hit... it is like a mosquito attacking a bear, no dama-" Momo says analyzing the fight but right as she says that Izuku lands a punch that actually send me rolling and tumbling to the ground.
"What is this! Before Izuku couldn't even put strength into his punches and now he is knocking the shocking hero in training back!" "Your quirk! You use it to augment your entire body! You see it as something that is synonymous with your body and not just a tool!" Izuku yells with a smile and is seemingly extremely proud of himself as I get up with a smirk and spit out some blood. "There you go! Using that big head of yours! Your quirk is more than an on off switch tool! It is a 'current' that can run freely through your own body not only lessening the strain on yourself! But"
I smile widely as Izuku seems my sparks go ferocious, as I charge him and lay into him with a standard boxing combo ducking and diving his hits but actually moving back when getting hit, Izuku is stronger than what my body can safely handle and my own personal limiter is soon going to activate again to force my muscles back into their normal states. "Augmenting your entire body's strength and durability!" I smile proud of Izuku as once again we meet in the middle and are in a stale mate, hands clasped together trying to gain the upper hand on one another and slowly... Izuku is pushing me back.
"Midoriya has the advantage! His jump in power is seemingly too much for Sen to handle!" "Go!" "Deku, you got this!" "WOOO" class 1-A is basically cheering on Izuku as I smirk and look up to Izuku, "Here is another page to add to your book for me Izuku" "Huh?" Izuku looks confused as I'm right at the edge of the ring Midnight is watching my feet closely as... I stop sliding back my yellow sparks are now seemingly attacking and latching onto Izuku's green sparks.
"What the hell?! Bolts stop sliding!" "Sen seems to have another trick up his sleeve" Bakugo and Todoroki say watching more intently than they both thought this fight would be. "If my opponent has electricity-based quirks, I can siphon strength off of them based on how powerful the current or electricity is." Izuku then notices my sparks are turning from yellow into a yellow green as my muscles actually grow a bit and I almost yell out in pain.
'What the hell is this power, this strength my body can't handle this! Not for more than a few second!' My mind is yelling at itself it is maxed out in capacity as well as I'm nearing explosion level because of how powerful his lightning is. "You can beat me with more training, you are stronger than me, but experience is my ally" I say with a smile before grabbing Izuku's arm and wrist and flinging him over my shoulder again.
He was ready for this however and stops himself with his own legs. "I refuse!" he says trying to pour more power out of him to overload me and its working. "Woah his tenacity is insane! Send is actually trying and he is slowly losing ground!" Tony says as my entire team is on the edge of their seats as the entire crowd is actually silent everyone's hair going frizzy and the only sound to be heard is the crackle of sparks coming off me and Izuku.
"I refuse as well!" I say as I leverage myself into the air twisting my body and forcing Izuku up with me, and while he is airborne, I do a spinning heel kick into his side, when my leg makes contact however there is an explosion at contact point, my limit has been reached.
"WOAH WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED! SEN EXPLODED I DIDNT KNOW HE COULD DO THAT!" "Mic is yelling as everyone can only see smoke as everyone is waiting with baited breath and one person is holding his breath the most Bakugo... he refused to believe Izuku is getting stronger this fast and seemingly has beaten me. "Who won?!" "Where are they!" "I don't know!" Kaminari asks, as Momo and Jirou answer at the same time and Uraraka is hoping we are just okay.
"We have a winner!" Midnight says as the air slowly clears as I'm standing at the other edge of the ring my pant leg torn open no sparks coming off of me and my right side of my body are actually in my lighting form as if not, I would be out of bounds, and Izuku is currently laying in the rubble of the ring wall groaning with little green sparks and yellow sparks fizzling off of him. "Sen Denryu advances Izuku Midoriya is unable to fight and is out of bounds!" She yells out.
The entire crowd goes wild, Mic cannot be heard over the crowd for once and back home Tony is cheering like a proud dad popcorn being flung everywhere as everyone around laughs as Peter shakes his head but with a smile. I slowly let my lighting form go and fall out of the ring laughing as Izuku is now knocked out and bots come get both of us.
"Let's go..." "Jirou you need to go to your staging room" Momo tells Jirou as her and Uraraka were about to go check on me and Izuku as Kaminari chuckles. "I'll go with Uraraka to check on them in the meantime how about you go get ready to meet Sen in final?" Kaminari says with confidence as he walks off with Uraraka as Jirou sighs.
"He has way too much faith in me" "Yea it's me against Bolts you damn extra!" Jirou huffs at Bakugo, "We will see you explosion loving Pomeranian!" She says ready to rumble as they both go to the staging area while the ring is repaired and Kaminari goes to check up on me.
I am currently smiling chuckling talking with recovery girl. "You could have done some real damage to yourself with that stunt!" She is currently whacking me over the head as Izuku is just now starting to stir after it's been about 10 minutes. "Ughh I'm guessing I didn't win?"
"Sorry buddy I told you experience won the day for me." I say softly with a smile as Kaminari walks in. "Hey guys how are you both holding up?" "Yea Deku, Sen you both really gave it your all!" Uraraka smiles and cheers us on seemingly as Izuku shakes his head.
"Nah Sen was trying to train me, if he wanted to, he could have gone for the win straight from the start with his speed and skill" Izuku kind of beats up on himself as he earns a smack from me and Recovery girl.
"Izuku, you did great, you forced me to rely on techniques I only use in a pinch as well as techniques I don't have much practice at, believe me when I say you almost won that match." I smile and try to lift him up a bit. As Kaminari and Uraraka sit next to us Uraraka closer to Izuku than me obviously.
"So Jirou's chances?" I look up at the tv in the room as they both begin to walk out to the arena. "Honestly slim to none, Bakugo is good all around, he can even fuck with her hearing with his explosions" I say studying the screen.
"Yea, but Jirou has been training with you, and if Deku is any indication you are a great teacher" "Yea I have to agree, you got this green menace to stop breaking his body for the time being it seems. Recovery girl comments as well as we all watch.
"So, Momo you know you don't have to keep taking notes, right? They are probably watching from the nurse's room" Mina giggles a bit teasing the black-haired girl. "Yes, I know, however I believe they both would love to have some notes for this just in case Jirou has a good surprise for us."
'Okay Kyouka breathe in and out, you got this... you just have to face off against an extremely loud and violent Pomeranian... yea then afterwards you gotta go against a cute lightning bolt... that can also take me down within seconds... fuck I do not have a chance, do I?' Jirou is trying to hype herself up and fails.
"Oi! Earlobes! You're gonna die!' Bakugo yells as that raises a few eyebrows and Midnight starts the match. "Please no killing! Begin!" "This time around we have our punk rock queen facing off against the ballistic missile of a student! Will Jirou show us something to throw us all for a loop?" Mic announces as Bakugo rushes in as he always has done this entire tournament.
'Okay what did Uraraka do... Make a lot of Debree to block his vision and keep on the move' Jirou's says as she slides under Bakugo and tries to jam her jacks into his legs only to get blasted immediately. "That shit aint gonna work! After cheeks no one is gonna get the drop on me!" Bakugo yells out as within the nurse's office everyone bites their lips seeing Jirou being blasted like that.
"Her ears are probably gonna be fucked..." I say softly as Recovery Girl prepares some ear muffs for the poor girl and after the dust settles Jirou has a chunk of rock from the ring that blew off from the explosion as she launches it at Bakugo with her jacks.
"Come on Jirou!" Mina yells out to her friend as Momo does as well as us in the nurse's room are all cheering for her as she has seemingly started her counter attack onto Bakugo. "The fuck Rahhh!' Bakugo says angry to have been smacked in the head with the rock and charges Jirou.
'Okay step one was easy... make him angry enough to forget strategy, now next step... get him to slow down... fuck come on Kyoka think! Think, what would Sen do?!' She asks herself and then realizes, I would try and limit Bakugo's explosions or Mobility, as when Bakugo charges at her she ducks under him and goes to move her jacks into place.
"RahhhH!" he says moving to blow her up with his left hand as she vibrates her jacks as fast as she can near his hand which causes his sweat on his hand to fall away, so no explosions. "Woah, she managed to stop the explosion!" Uraraka says getting excited as me and Kaminari roar with excitement and Izuku is in silent awe.
"What the hell!" Bakugo growls as Jirou jams both her jacks into his now dry left palm and pushes her heart beat through her jacks to really launch Bakugo away and cause mild numbness and paralysis due to the vibrations being so extremely strong. "FUCKK!" He roars in anger and nearly slides out of bounds due to not paying attention after being launched.
"Is this it?! Has our exploding missile met his match?!" Mic says getting into the fight as it is seemingly closer than what was anticipated. 'I can do this! I can d-' Jirou's inner monologue is cut off by said angry missile rushing over with his other hand using his max explosions as he uses the momentum of the explosions to give a devastating axe kick to the back of her head, causing her to lose consciousness.
"Thats the match!" Midnight calls as Bakugo very nearly goes to pick up Jirou and try and deal more damage before tossing her down. "Fucking extra! Know your place!" He says extremely angry as he walks off to the nurse's office as after seeing that axe kick everyone in said nurses' office have rushed out to try and get with the bots to make sure Jirou is okay.
"Alright folks we will have our last intermission! Need to set up the final ring for the final bout in this year's sports festival!" Mic says all too happily. "This year the final match is between the Electrifying transfer student, and the Ballistic Missile of a student! Sen Denryu and Katsuki Bakugo!" He announces as me, Kaminari, Uraraka, Izuku, and even Momo who ran down from the stand have come to check on Jirou as the bots carry her in, she is still out cold and even is bleeding a bit.
"That was overkill..." Kaminari says a bit disgusted with Bakugo as Momo agrees, "Yea... Jirou, I hope she is okay.." As Uraraka and Izuku share a worried glance as Izuku notices my fist is balled up. "He was going to really try and do some gruesome damage... you know I hate when people done know when enough is enough... and he wanted a fight... He is going to get one" I say through my teeth as my anger is causing everyone's hair around me, including Kaminaris, to go frizzy as I watch Jirou be carted off, this was the moment when I really started to realize, I may have feeling for my purple haired friend.
A/N:
This chapter is a bit shorter again, only two fights this time around but I wanted to give them their dues. Sen really doesn't like when his friends get hurt when they don't need to. Bakugo wanted a fight with "Bolts" well he is for sure into for something... May be a fight may be a beating, who knows?
Please review if you'd like I am always welcome to criticism!
Have a great day/night everyone!
