Chapter 30: Explosive Confrontation!
OUR NEXT MATCH IS KINDA OF POETIC IF YOU ASK ME THE GIRL WHO CAN CREATE ANYTHING VERSUS THE BOY WHO CAN TRANSFORM INTO ANYTHING!! IZUKU MIDORIYA VERSUS MOMO YAOYOROZU!!!"
Midoriya exhaled before walking onto the arena as he soon saw his opponent was soon in his eyesight.
Momo herself was feeling extremely anxious yet excited. This was her chance to fight against Midoriya and knowing him he wouldn't hold back.
"I need to be quick in creating, in terms of power, skill, and even intelligence Midoriya out classes in each." She took a breath in."But I can't give up, I-I have to try my hardest."
...
With class 1-A, most were conflicted. They had no idea who to cheer on. Both were their friend and class reps. Especially Kyouka, right now, she had to watch her Momo, who she would consider one of her best friends and Midoriya her crush.
"Man, I don't know who to cheer for," Kaminari said as he laid back.
"I'm cheering for Midobro! Yaomomo is super smart, no question, but Midoriya, even without his transformation, is pretty smart."
"I'm rooting for Yaomomo!" Ashido declared with her fist in the air.
Hagakure nodded."Yeah, go! Yaomomo!!"
Iida was watching the match carefully."Midoriya or Yaoyorozu could be my next opponent if I manage to beat Bakugou."
"Huh? Iida, you're still here? I'd assume you'd head back to your waiting your room."
"Well, I wish to see the match first hand and uhm..."
"You don't want to wait for an extra 10 minutes or so because they will be repairing the arena," Kyouka stated, to which Iida nodded.
This brought a chuckle from some of the girls.
"Wait, you don't actually think Midoriya will destroy the arena again?" Kaminari asked to which everyone gave a deadpanned expression.
"..."
"...Oh, right, never mind."
...
"Are you two ready?"
Izuku activated the Omnitrix, the familiar green, an alien already selected, Momo herself took a fighting stance. The glow of her Quirk indicated she was ready.
"Midoriya will want to end this quickly, but he knows I have counters to most of his forms, but... he believes Diamondhead to be near indestructible and whether I believe it is irrelevant but I'm sure that's the form he will pick!" Momo thought a fierce determination came to her face.
"Yaoyorozu can create anything that isn't organic, but I'm positive that Diamondhead can get through any material," He thought the silhouette of Diamondhead showed.
"Begin!!" Midnight exclaimed, Midoriya slammed on the Omnitrix. Momo created two things, since her shirt was open, which exposed her sports bra, she created her canon and Tungsten shield.
Momo quickly put up her shield as Diamondhead launched a crystal shard towards her. To her surprise, the crystal pierced through the shield quite easily, and to Yaoyorozu's shock as the stray shard scratched her cheek.
"What?! That was Tungsten, and he pierced through it like it was nothing!" Momo grabbed the canon and aimed towards the crystal man, as the girl created more shields to try and block his barrage of crystals.
"Guess it wasn't an exaggeration, I shouldn't have doubted him. That's my mistake, but Diamondhead, let's see how well you do against Diamond itself!" She exclaimed before she aimed the canon and fired it, The clear shiny canon bolted towards Diamondhead, and it hit him before shattering, and she launched more to her surprise they shattered on impact.
She looked at Diamondhead who was slowly approaching probably to end the match as quickly as possible this was proven as Crystal ripped through the ground destroying the canon as she bolted to the left, creating a shield to protect herself from the incoming attacks.
"Think! Momo! Think!" She screamed in her head before blushing and surpassing a chuckle and a giggle."I've been watching way too many superhero shows with Midoriya and Pony!" She groaned at the thought, but she knew she wouldn't stop.
Before replaying the Capture the Flag, particularly Diamandheads crystals, she remembered seeing the crack somewhat crack before widening and looking over at Jirou.
A fierce determination crossed her face before she looked at Midoriya."I'm going to create something really big!!" She exclaimed, to which Diamondhead widened as he jammed his fist into the ground. Crystals erupted from the ground from the arena before closing the two in a prism of green crystals that blocked the audience from seeing what was inside.
"MY ARENA!!!" Cemento's cried out in comedic horror.
"HEY WHAT THE HECK WE CAN'T SEE ANYTHING!!" Present Mic's voice exclaimed to the confusion of everyone.
A heavy sigh came from Aizawa."Yaoyorozu can create anything, but her quirk rips to her clothing, knowing Midoriya respects the girl's privacy and created the crystals before you."
Which got groans from the men in the stadium.
"Do I have to remind you she's 15?" Aizawa's voice came out as a warning before the crowd felt silent. However, the woman thought one thing in irritation about the boy..."Dammit, and he's a gentleman!"
...
Within the crystal dome, Aizawa always preached never to take your eyes off your opponent, to which on Izuku Midoriya currently Diamondhead tried to focus on his opponent but...
"Look at her eyes! Look at her eyes! Look at her eyes! Look at her eyes!" He repeated to himself.
Momo created a giant speaker, which resulted in her sports bra, and a gym shirt ripped, leaving nothing. When she completed it, she created a shirt and quickly put it on.
"Keeping your eyes on your opponent, Mr. Aizawa always preached that, sorry..." She said, blushing a little. If Diamondhead could blush, he would be as red as Four Arms.
"N-No worries..."Diamondhead sighed in contentment."I'm never going to forget this."
Diamondhead assumed he thought that, but he spoke out loud, and the girl squeaked."Eep."
"I said that out loud, didn't I?"
The girl nodded, and he sighed. The girl suppressed a blush before a fierce determination crossed her face.
"I'll make it up to you... After I win!!"She said before putting on headphones, she pressed a button, and a sonic blast throughout the Diamondhead dome shattered completely. The audience was forced to clasp their ears!
"Since the USJ, I made sure to study as much as I could in my free time, learning as much as I could! I... I wanted to make sure what happened there wouldn't happen again!" She screamed out, but Diamondhead himself couldn't hear.
"Wh-What's happening, my body feels like it's rattling! I feel like I'm going to shatter!!" He screamed out in his head as he took a few steps each looked like a struggle.
"I-I know I'm not as smart as you! Or even strong, but... if you would help me grow stronger!"
Diamondhead fell to one knee, greeting his teeth, cracks soon appeared on him, his vision got blurry, and he could see Momo speaking.
...
With 1-A and 1-B all widen as the seemingly indestructible Diamondhead, whom none of them could break through was on his knees, his crystals shattered.
"Holy shit Yaomomo might actually win this!!" Mineta shouted through the sound waves.
"What?!" Everyone exclaimed as they had their ears covered by the ears. They could barely hear anything, especially with the sound blast.
"I-I couldn't even get through that shit! Yet that Ponytailed bitch managed to shatter them!!" Bakugou gritted his teeth in anger as his red eyes bore into her.
...
Diamondhead slammed his fist into the ground crystals erupted from beneath the ground as they pierced through the ground ripping through the speaker, she moved back but she was used to too many lipids and the fatigue was hitting her, she could mostly move but creating more objects would have struggled.
The ground beneath her rumbled a bit as jagged spiked pale green crystals erupted from the ground.
"No... Dammit." She said as the crystals had her trapped she couldn't move, even if she wanted to she couldn't create anything, during the fight a crystal shard cut her ponytail letting her hair down.
Diamond was wheezing and taking deep breaths in and he didn't move, "C'mon call it!" He was internally begging, his body felt like it wanted to collapse and he resisted the urge to pass out.
Midnight, trying to get the ringing out of her ears, walked up and saw the trapped Yaoyorozu.
"Yaoyorozu, can you move?" Midnight asked, Momo realizing her lipids were low, she was trapped within the crystals and shook her head from side to side.
"Momo Yaoyorozu is immobile! Izuku Midoriya wins!!"
Momo looked disappointed before she was let out of her prison as the crystals around soon retracted to the ground leaving only the shards a ripped cracks in the arena a giant thud could be heard as Diamondhead collapsed to the ground the beeping sound could be heard as he was enveloped in a green light as Midoriya returned, the boy lay before Midnight walked up to him. To her surprise.
"H-He's knocked out." She gasped out. To Momo's surprise.
"He was probably trying to maintain his form, a few more minutes than..." Midnight trailed off the robots and took Midoriya to Recovery Girl,
Later a concerned Uraraka, Iida, Tsuyu and Kyouka accompanied by Mineta, Sero and Kaminari, walked to the infirmary however Uraraka walked a little bit faster.
"I'm sure Midoriya is okay, he's probably just resting, ribbit," Tsuyu said as she watched her friend walk faster.
"I know but...
"Oh, I know that bastard fine! He had a clear view of Yaoyorozu's breasts!" Sero said walking like a man on a mission prepared to go to war.
"And worst of it all he made sure none of us saw them that's selfish son of a bitch!!" Mineta said wiping a few blood tears.
Kyouka rolled her eyes in annoyance.
They opened the door, but to the surprise, Midoriya was still asleep. Momo was watching over him with some concern
"Don't worry, deary, he's just asleep. That attack did a number on his form. Give him some time." Recovery Girl said.
"I-I... Okay, do you mind if I stay till he wakes up?" Momo asked
"So you two can have some sexual encounter?! Oh, no! If you two are going to be in some hentai ma--" He was poking the unconscious Izuku before being his hand was slapped by Momo.
"Ow!"
"Please don't poke him while he rests. You can head back to your seats, Midoriya will be fine."
The woman looked at it as a suggestion, but it felt more like an order than anything.
Sero wrapped Mineta in tape.
"Sorry about him," Sero said apologetically.
"But... when he wakes up! We will get the details!" Kaminari said with a serious face and nod.
Momo gave him a disgusted look and was somewhat disappointed. "Ugh."
Kaminari shrugged before the boys left in disappointment.
"Wait Yaomomo you're not planning on cuddling with him are you?"Uraraka asked with a dangerous aura as she glanced at Kyouka whose face turned red.
"Don't be absurd unlike some of us I can control myself." The girl said with an elegant tone before glancing at Kyouka.
"Says the girl who rubbed his abs." Kyouka muttered, Yaoyorozu blushed before turning away with a "Hmph!"
Before the three broke out into a giggle, before the two left and an Iida with a concerned Iida who unfortunately heard everything.
"Wait, cuddling? Rubbed his abs?! Did Midoriya even give his consent in these situations!?" Iida asked in comedic horror."Is my friend some sexual deviant?!
...
Izuku's eyes slowly opened he saw the familiar light of the infirmary. The first thing he saw was Yaoyorozu sleeping while sitting beside him. She was sitting on a chair near his bed, and she seemed to be at peace. She also had a few crumbs of food in her mouth.
"Uh, Yaoyorozu?" Izuku asked ti which the girl began to open her onyx eyes.
"M-Midoriya. You're awake, that's good." She said with relief in her tone.
He soon began to sit up." Yaoyorozu, soon you are being watched the matches?"
"You were injured and was by me. I felt I needed to be by your side till you awoke."She said
"O-Oh. D-don't worry about it we're friends and I should apologize for uhm... looking at your..." He looked away, before looking at the curtains he will admit he subconsciously burned the image to his head.
Her face flushed before she composed herself
"It's alright, and speaking of which... Midoriya, would you mind if I called you by your first name?" She asked her eyes were closed and she tried to keep her elegant nature.
"And feel free to do the same," Momo said to which Izuku if it weren't for the fact he just woked up he would've become a blushing mess.
"Uh... sure, I don't see why not. Wait were you waiting for me to wake up? Don't you want to watch the other matches?
Her face turned red."I was worried that you might have gotten hurt, I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it. I'm fine."
"And another reason..."The girl seemed to take a deep breath.
"Izuku... Around will be given a few days off, my family will be holding a gala, and often, boys from rich families will try and make their advances, which is irritating." The girl seemed to speak faster and her hands were fidgety as she moved the hair strand from her face.
"And if you are not busy, or if you are free, look and well I will purchase a suit for if you don't have any formal wear, and we trying to be heroes events like this might be considered a distraction and I wouldn't want to intrude on your schedule..."
"Momo, you're rambling. "
The girl had flushed cheeks as her professional demeanor disappeared and soon became a shy high-school girl, her head looking on her lap.
"Do you want to attend the gala with... me?" She asked her eyes were closed and her head facing her own legs.
Izuku's face started feeling warm." Do you mean like..." His voice cracked to his embarrassment and a small nervous smile from Momo.
"Ahem! Do you mean like a date?" He asked nervously's heart soon began to beat faster.
"No, not like a date. A date."She confirmed as she
Izuku's face became more red."I-I would... I..."
He then remembered Kendo's confession he didn't want to hurt her by going on a date with Momo, but he honestly wanted to go on a date with her.
"I want to say yes but, K--Itsuka might get hurt if I go out on a date with someone else, I know she likes me and said she didn't want my answer but still...".
He then remembered what Kodai said
"Maybe if I ask out Itsuka, then maybe she won't be hurt, y-yeah that makes sense right? Right! Ugh! Kevin, why aren't you here? You were always better when it came to girls!"
" I would like love to!"He exclaimed, to which the girl blushed in surprised
"By the way, I couldn't what you were saying before, was it important?"
"Oh, j-just some rambling don't worry about it, but I was wondering if you wouldn't mind giving me some pointers? You're smart, especially when it comes to quirks, I was hoping we... I could.. if you wouldn't mind is... uhm we worked together to improve ourselves."
"Oh, I'd honestly love to thanks to you now I know Diamondhead is vulnerable to sound, and I've got a feeling we could get stronger together
"Oh, you said it's a gala right so I'm going to need some formal clothes,"
Momo then had an idea as she beamed at him."We should go shopping to find you some formal clothes! Yes, we could spend the day finding appropriate formal clothes we can try a few stores! I have a few in mind!" The girl was clearly excited as she continued muttering.
"Uh, but Momo I already have some formal wear."
"Oh." She sounded disappointed.
"Plus, don't you have extra formal wear I'm sure you would have?"
"We do." She admitted.
"And couldn't you make the formal clothes yourself?"
"I could."
"..."
"Momo do just want to go shopping?"
The girl nodded, Izuku could her ears were red.
Izuku found this painfully adorable, especially the way she nodded like a little girl who was caught eating the cookies from the cookie jar.
"Okay, I-I wouldn't mind getting some new formal clothes."
The girl's smile soon returned as she beamed in excitement.
"B-But on one condition please don't buy me anything I know you want to but, I don't want to feel like I'm using you or anything I've my own money and I would prefer purchasing myself."
Momo was honestly a little surprised when she went shopping with a guy, or even a girl in her old middle school she was expected to pay for them, before she entered middle school she was homeschooled and she didn't know better but it did provide some experience in saying no.
"I... Okay, though, I hope you realize I'll be picking out your formal uniform, no offense, but I have seen what you wear and it... cute. But unprofessional.
"Uh... Thanks? But I have a feeling you're going to enjoy this a little more than I am.
Soon, he got up, and they began walking back as they returned. Everyone seemed mesmerized by the game below.
He heard a massive explosion that erupted, Iida was blasted and smacked into the wall.
Izuku widened in horror, seeing a scorched mark Iida, smoke trailing off his body.
"W-What happened?" Izuku asked
A few minutes ago...
Tenya was walking with Jirou and Uraraka who both wished him luck.
"Good luck Iida I'm rooting for you!!" Uraraka exclaimed.
"Honestly I hope you put that explosion-ass wipe, in his place," Kyouka said to which began scolding him for using such crude language.
"I appreciate the thought, but can we please refrain from referring our classmates to such crude words?"
"No can do when the explosion boy is an ass." She said with a salute
Iida sighed while rubbing his template.
"They still had a couple of minutes before they repaired the arena. What are you going to do while then?"
Iida rubbed his chin before pulling out his phone."I'll call my brother
...
"BOTH FROM CLASS 1-A THEIR RESIDENTIAL SPEEDSTER WHO NEVER SKIPS LEG DAY!! TENYA IIDA VERSUS THE POSTER BOY FOR ANGER ISSUES KATSUKI BAKUGOU!!!"
Bakugou who was walking onto the arena his hands in his pockets had cross veins of irritation after hearing his introduction.
Iida soon came into the arena and they glared at each other.
"Four eyes you all chummy with that nerd?"
"If you're referring to Midoriya then yes, we are friends. I don't know what your problem with Midoriya
"Are you two ready?"
The atmosphere grew tense, as Bakugou aimed his hands at the back, black smoke spewed from his hands.
Iida took a sprinter position he's engine began to roar like a lion waiting to be released.
Midnight raised her whip before her hand flew down."Begin!"
Bakugou sent off an explosion and rocketed towards forward, Iida blasted off in the direction of Bakugou.
Bakugou aimed his hand at Iida and sent off an explosion, the explosion echoed throughout the arena a large smoke cloud appeared where Iida stood.
Bakugou suddenly felt something coming Iida came from behind he widened in shock as Iida sent a hard kick into Bakugou's back slamming it into the ground.
Bakugou feeling extreme pain from the sudden kick blasted forward before exploding into the sky,
"Damnit, when did he get so fast?! I barely saw him coming!"
Bakugou put his palms together."STUN GRENADE!!" He exclaimed a blinding explosion boomed, and Iida's forced to close his eyes before he heard an incoming explosion.
"DIE!!"
Bakugou shouted before sending another massive explosion towards me, Iida was blasted launching him backwards, Iida refused to remain down he quickly controlled his trajectory using his speed to stop himself.
Iida then bolted towards Bakugou at high speed who acting quickly put his palms to the ground and set off an explosion, that rocketed him into the air.
"Four eyes won't be able to catch me up here!" Bakugou exclaimed in his mind.
Iida seeing this amped his engines, and he stopped before blue flames erupted from the mufflers as he rocketed into the air Bakugou visibly surprised was greeted with another kick this time to his chest, Bakugou could feel a rib break as he was sent hurdling down and slamming into the ground.
Iida himself landed ungracefully scrapping his knees and tumbling to the ground before standing onto his two feet.
"IIDA WITH A DEVASTATING KICK SENT BAKUGOU BACK TO THE GROUND!!"
Bakugou got back up let out a few coughs and wheezed heavily, as some blood trickled from his forehead as he coughed out some blood.
Bakugou exploded himself into the air, his palms glowed as he began to spin rapidly, and Iida widened.
"I WAS SAVING THIS FOR DEKU AND THAT ICY-HOT BASTARD!! BUT YOU REALLY PISSED ME OFF!!"
Bakugou spun and quickly approached Tenya, Iida acting quickly blitzed to the other side of the arena.
"HOWITZER IMPACT!!!!" He yelled out as a massive explosion erupted the shockwave could be felt by the audience who felt the sudden rush of wind, Iida found himself pushed back by the shock wave, and forced to shut his eyes as heard explosions
Bakugou's palms in front of Iida, Tenya widened as Bakugou let off a massive and powerful explosion, Iida was launched by the massive explosion and blasted into the wall, cracking it behind him.
Iida slowly got back up he's body was covered from head to to toe in a smoke trail, scorch marks and some burns from his exposed forearms. He was breathing heavily and wheezing and he's glasses that he always wore were gone but he looked ready to fight again.
"Tenya Iida is out of bounds! Katsuki Bakugou wins!!!"
The audience roared in excitement, however, there were a few boos directed at Bakugou while others cheered Iida on.
...
Midoriya who had caught the only few moments was in shock that Iida looked ready to continue the fight, especially after tanking the explosion head-on.
"Iida lost," Uraraka said her tone indicated she was sad for her friend's loss.
"Yeah, I was really rooting for him."
"So... that means, Midoriya and Bakugou will be going up against each other," Shoji stated to which everyone grimaced, it wasn't the fact they didn't think Midoriya could win but it was more of the fact the class seemed to realize Bakugou got angrier and more violent especially when it came to Midoriya and it wasn't said but the fight was going to be an emotional one.
Izuku seeing Iida put on a stretcher opted to turn around and make sure his friend was okay. His thoughts of fighting Bakugou brought some anxiety to him, the fact his old classmates would be watching didn't ease him.
But his old classmates would be watching Midoriya fighting Bakugou brought some sadistic smiles to some, Naomi looked pleased with herself, and everyone assumed how the fight would go.
Izuku was walking to the infirmary, but in the back of his mind, his anxiety only grew. "What if I lose? Can I beat him? Do I even have a chance? They all going to be watching me! They will be screaming 'I can't do this' or 'You should've backed out' They will be calling and screaming 'Deku' throughout the whole fight, I-I- can't do this, I only fought him when I was an alien, I haven't faced him with my own eyes!" The walls around Midoriya felt like they were closing in on him, His heart was beating he had to clutch his chest, he's palms became sweaty.
"Midoriya?" He then felt a hand on his shoulder and turned to see Tsuyu who had a finger on her chin.
"O-Oh, Asui. W- What are you doing here?"
The girl tilted her head before she turned to the side, Izuku did the same thing as he saw the girl's bathroom, he had walked over here and leaned on the wall beside.
"O-Oh, right sorry." He slumped on the world a tired look crossed his face.
"You okay, ribbit?" She asked before sitting beside him.
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine just I'll be fighting Kacchan, and well... he's.."
"A unhinged person with explosions?" She asked bringing a chuckle.
"He so much better than me, he's a quirk, fighting, everything"
This is where Tsuyu got confused, she will admit that Bakugou was incredible's fighting style was no joke,
"He is?" Tsuyu asked
"Well yeah, I mean everyone praised him, they have been saying how he'll be a great hero, while others laughed at my dreams, plus with our old classmates watching I-I don't think I'll be able to win." The boy hugged his knees and asked if it was a fact.
"Midoriya, you need to be more assertive," Tsuyu said bluntly told him which the boy looked at her in confusion.
"...You are way too submissive." Tsuyu began before she put a finger to her chin.
"Just because they said Bakugou is better than that doesn't make it true, and you shouldn't take what people say as a fact, Bakugou is impressive that's true but you shouldn't just ignore your accomplishments if you keep thinking or believing Bakugou is this unbeatable opponent than in honestly you will probably lose." Tsuyu honestly believed Izuku wouldn't lose but she wanted to be blunt.
"I-I never thought of it like that."
"Midoriya, when I say you need to be more assertive I mean you should stand up for yourself, look Bakugou in the eyes fight him whether you lose or win is irrelevant but the fact you stood your ground and refused to back down. He can say whatever he wants, have pride in yourself tell him you will beat him, don't just say it mean it in your words."
"I... I'll try," Izuku said still feeling anxious. To which the girl patted his head.
"Ribbit?" She questioned before she ruffled his head and found it extremely soft.
"Your hair... it's so soft."She said while smiling as she began playing with his hair which ironically made him feel better from her petting.
"Thank you, Tsu, "Before gently removing her hand away from her hair to which the girl gave disappointment."Ribbit."
He stood up before going back to check on Iida, he somewhat felt better but there was still some anxiety but he knew if ever wanted to be a Hero he needed to face this head-on.
As he walked he swung open the door "Iida!" He shouted before seeing the tall boy was doing just fine.
"Midoriya!?"Iida exclaimed.
"Oh, you're fine?"He asked to which he nodded."Though I lost."
"Hey, you made it this far I'm sure your brother would be proud."
Iida got up as he's phone began to ring he looked at the caller ID and smiled.
"Ah, speaking of him..."
He picked up.
{Tensei: Hey little brother.}
"Tensei! I'm sorry I-I lost... I probably looked foolish!"
{Tensei: But you gave one hell of a fight! The arena isn't exactly made for speedsters, but I watched it been so boring...}
Iida smiled hearing his brother's voice over the phone.
The air grew cold, the wind blew and variant pros could tell from the air that something was coming
"You feel that too huh?" Hawks as the rabbit hero whose ears twitched as a scowl soon fell on her face.
"Yeah," She growled out.
Endeavour himself squinted his ears as he glared at something that wasn't there.
Midoriya's danger sense went off, the Omnitrix glowed a purple colour for a moment. He shrugged.
"Something isn't... right." Aizawa thought as a chill ran down his spine.
Toshinori felt the chill, a familiar chill when disaster would happen he's hair stood on end.
Soon, the chill that plagued the air disappeared, but there was still a faint scent of blood in the air.
...
A few moments earlier...
Uraraka watched Dekiru leave she was about to leave when she noticed Ashido had a somewhat depressed look on her face, the pink girl stood up and walked away.
The other girls of class 1-A except Tsuyu and Kirishima decided to follow her, they could figure out why she looked so scared and nervous. The girl's expressions could be read like a book.
"Oh, hey Toru, "
"Oh, Ashido what are you--Whoa what's with that face?!"
"Y-Yeah... sorry. I-I'm just super nervous, that's all." As she took in a few breaths relaxing her face.
"Oh, I see you're up against Todoroki. One of the most dangerous opponents to face in the tournament. Not an easy match."
The girl scoffed."Not easy? Try impossible. He's a prodigy he has such fine control over his quirk, plus the guy is super smart and tactical he beats me in nearly every category."
Toru put a comforting hand on Ashido's shoulder.
"If I'm being honest, I think I've fallen behind you guys, I mean look at you guys Iida and Momo are from rich families and have been training their whole lives so they control their quirks to the fullest, so we have you guys like Ochako, who come from normal backgrounds and put up one hell of a fight against Bakugou, even Kendo gave Midori a run for his money, Jirou shocked everyone even without your new power you were awesome! While I had to rely on Bakugou to get to the third event." The corner of her eyes began to build up with tears, as she clenched her fist in frustration.
"Then there's Midori... I remember him saying how he was a late boomer, I have no idea when he got his powers, but he has so many quirks and powers yet he has control over his quirk, he breaks his bones, he has a whole arsenal of transformation most people it takes years to get control over the one quirk he managed to get control 19! And a quirk that breaks his bones whenever he uses it, you heard him he broke, his bones time and time again just to get control! I honestly don't think I can stand by you, let alone Midoriya."
"Not only did he do all that but he heard he was a late bloomer, he did all that, it seems he was given all the tools to fail but he refused to let himself be held back! I-I just feel like I'm falling behind..." Her voice cracked a bit, to which Kirishima decided to speak up,
"Ashido that's not true--!" Kirishima was about to say when he was cut off by Ashido.
"But it is true! Look, I know I'm not the smartest or brightest student. I know I get easily distracted by something and my quirk isn't that useful at all. At the USJ, sure I helped Iida escape through the door and get some help but I ended up burning myself and totally became useless," Memories of USJ plagued her mind.
"After that, I stood by while you all were fighting for your lives and I stood by as Midoriya was beaten, and then I did the same thing to Kirishima and Tetsutetsu!"
"Mina..." Toru reached out a hand.
"I was scared, scared that my friend was killed...I've felt, my friends could be killed and I was just a bystander. Hoping and praying someone would come and save us." She scowled at the memory.
"But, if I beat Todoroki. Then that'll show me that I'm strong enough to hang with you guys. To show myself that I can be useful." Mina said as she was weeping a bit. Everyone looked at each other before Momo spoke up.
"You don't have to beat him to show us that. You've already shown us that you're strong just by being you and making it this far in the festival." Momo said
"Yeah, I haven't shown much during the festival even with my new powers," Toru said sadly at the last bit.
"Yeah you don't have to prove anything to us, " Kirishima said.
"Win or lose we won't think any different of you," Uraraka said with a fist in the air.
Mina smiled before wiping the tears away from her face and leaving as she walked fist clenched heart beating incredibly fast. She turned a corner before slamming into a body.
"Ow! Hey watch it!" The girl said rubbing her head she opened her eyes to see Midori before her he stood up and offered a hand.
"Sorry, Mina." He said she reached her hand face turned lilac before helped her up she dusted herself off.
"No worries, now I need to get to my match!" She was about to leave when he grabbed her hand.
"Mina... are you alright?"
"Y-Yeah, I-I'm fine... just nervous." She tried to play it off and leave but he could see she was sad.
He tilted his head seeing she was clearly sad."Y'know what most I like about you?"
The girl turned to him with a somewhat confused look.
"Your boundless energy and how you're always smiling and making jokes, even when teasing me... though I'd wish you'd stop." He grumbled out the last part which brought a giggle from the girl." Every time I see you always looks like you're having fun..." He raised his arms in a flexing pose."H-Have fun out there."
The girl smiled before she gave the boy a peck on his cheek, he blushed but not as much before he felt her breath on his ear. "Thanks Izuku."
Before she ran away leaving the boy smiling and tint of red on his cheeks, he himself ran back to watch the match.
...
"THE CORROSIVE CAPED CRUSADER RETURNS!! MINA ASHIDO!!!"
The crowd roared in excitement as the girl with a bright smile came over to the arena.
"VERSUS! THE KID WHO'S OPPONENTS WHO STEPPED ONTO THE TRACK WERE LEFT IN A FROZEN PRISON!!"
Todoroki with his cold and emotionless expression appeared in the arena.
"Begin!!"
Todoroki with no hesitation sent off a massive trail of ice he underestimated Kyouka he would not do the same with Ashido, Mina herself was skating straight towards the coming ice barrage she leapt off the ground and twirled head straight into the acid.
The ice barrage covered a good portion of the other side of the arena when the melting of ice could be heard as Mina melted through the ice and began her quick approach to Todoroki, Todoroki squinting his eyes.
Ashido launched to which Todoroki blocked with an ice shield, the girl herself didn't stop her approach as she sprayed acid that melted Todoroki's ice which the melting caused the ice construction to crack apart.
She launched another attack using some acid as a distraction she was able to land some acid to he's forearm burning it,
"ASHIDO LANDS A HIT ON TODOROKI!!"
The boy himself was wincing in pain as Ashido quickly approached before sending a few haymakers to Todoroki, using her acid to swerve around him and land some quick blows.
The audience was in awe as the girl threw punches and kicks at Todoroki using quick moves, Shoto taking a punch to the face grabbed her arm swept her leg and forced her to the ground he began to in case her body was in ice except for her hands.
"You can melt through the ice I'm sure but I'm sure your clothes will not be intact." He said coldly, Mina glared before sighing in frustration.
"I surrender." She said some sadness in her tone before he began to melt the ice.
Todoroki feeling somewhat guilty felt like he had to point out."You know if you had your costume I'm sure you would have made this battle more difficult."
Ashido who was soaked surprised smiled a little."Thanks."
He walked away not paying too much attention clutching his arm. "Yeah, whatever."
...
Ashido was taken aback by the loss when she got back to class 1-A she sat back down, fortunately, she could use her acid to warm herself up, she sat down and hugged her knees in disappointment.
"Mina, are you okay?" Toru asked.
"No, I got slaughtered."
Toru then saw Kirishima whisper something into Midoriya whose face turned red, he suddenly glanced at Ashido, before looking back and rapidly shaking his head from side to side.
The next thing Kirishima clamped his hands together and seemed to beg under his breath, Midriya seemed to sigh stood up, walked up to Ashido sat next to her she suddenly felt arms wrap around her body."M-Midori w-what a-are y-you--?!"
"You're probably super cold, so..."The girl blushed before placing her head on his chest and a smirk appeared to which Toru saw.
"Fwahahaha!! Come Midori, suffer in my embrace!" The girl snuggled herself into him. A blissful smile crossed her face.
Izuku could only smile at her antiques.
...
"NOW FOR OUR NEXT MATCH!! FROM CLASS B WE HAVE PONY TSUNOTORI!! VS THE ONLY GENERAL STUDIES STUDENT! HITOSHI SHINSO!!"
Pony got onto the arena the previous conversation about Shinso replayed in her mind."Wait why did Midoriya ask that? Why was it important that they talked?" She asked herself.
She soon Shinso came into the arena,
"Whatever it is! Midoriya is usually right when it comes to quirks so I won't talk!" Pony said aiming her horns at him.
"Y'know, you class B are basically second-rate heroes y'know that?" Shinso said to which the girl gave no response.
"You were on the team with that transforming loser? He basically carried you're a team!" He shouted to his surprise she jammed her hoof and launched her horns at him, they got under his armpits and began to float him out of bounds.
"C'mon talk! Say something!!" He shouted before he was thrown out of bounds and tumbled to the grass.
"Tsunotori Pony wins!! Hitoshi Shinso is out of bounds!!"
Shinso rubbed his head before sitting up and sighing looking at the sun and the arena."Honestly, I didn't think I would make it this far, I was sure that after my first fight, everyone would know my quirk, but thanks to Monoma I made it this far, thank him for me will ya?"
Pony nodded rapidly.
"Still not going to talk?"
She shook her head from side to side bringing a chuckle.
"Don't lose you're going to make me look bad."He stood up before the audience gave applause to the two.
...
Yaoyorozu looked to Ashido to inform her that Midoriya's match was coming up until she saw his expression, his eyes were a bit wide and some sweat trickled off his forehead."Izuku what's wrong?"
He stood up and left before Uraraka spoke up."He's going after Bakugou."
"ALRIGHT SPORTS FANS, WERE IN THE SEMI FINALS NOW! AND OUR FIRST MATCH WILL THE EXPLOSIVE BOMB BLONDE KATSUKI BAKUGOU VERSUS THE ENTERTAINING M.V.P OF THE TOURNAMENT, IZUKU MIDORIYA!!! We'll start in 5 minutes."
Midoriya stood up and began to leave when he's friends were about to follow him when he raised his hand to stop him." Look, I know you're worried but I-I'm fine." He inhaled before a fierce determination crossed his face. "I'm going to win!"
Izuku left and soon enough everything went like a blur as he came to the blinding light.
...
"Midoriya versus Bakugou? This is going to be a slaughter fest!"
"Aw, man watching him get pummeled is surely going to be entertaining as hell!"
"Finally that useless Deku will be put in his place!" Ishida shouted out at the top of his voice.
"Huh?"Kyouka asked in confusion.
To which Kyouka, though she was sitting pretty far away, focused on hearing and could faintly hear their voices even through the cheering of the crowd she listened carefully.
"I mean didn't we beat enough for him to get it he will never be a hero let alone someone like All Might, if it weren't for Kevin I could've had my way with him but no he had to get in the way."
"Hey, isn't quirkless anymore, maybe -"
"Shut up!"
To this, Kyouka widened in horror and realization before shaking her head rapidly, "No way if Greenie was quirkless..." She then remembered how mick he is, and his low self-confidence she always wondered if someone with an OP quirk could have such low confidence. She swallowed hard.
"Hey, Yaomomo, when did Midoriya exactly say his quirk manifested?"\
"I-I'm not sure he didn't say but probably a couple of years ago, maybe 7 or 6 even for late bloomers, that's the latest,"
"S-So, hear me out late bloomers, are still registered with a quirk, even though it may appear late."
Momo had an anxious feeling."Go on."
"And what if Green was misdiagnosed as quirkless, that would explain his red shoes right?"
"Kyouka where you going with this? If Midoriya was registered quirkless then..." A cold realization soon fell on her face, he's somewhat scared of everyone, he's interested in quirks,
Iida who unfortunately heard this put in his two cents."On our first day, Bakugou claimed 'No way a quirkless loser could beat me'."
There was silence between the three as they watched the match.
...
Izuku walked out into the light, the cheers of the crowd screaming his name as the excitement only grew as from the other side Bakugou stepped out of the tunnel.
Midoriya began to walk when from the crowd he heard a familiar voice."Kick his ass Izuku."
Midoriya turned to the crowd."Was that...?"
His thoughts were quickly brought out of his thoughts and began walking back.
"Back at the battle Training, you said you weren't afraid of me. I saw it then, and I can see it now you and I both know you lied." Katsuki sneered bending his knees and getting himself ready. "You better pick a good form, because I'm going to prove that quirk or not, you're still just a fucking useless waste of space. No capture tape, no teachers to stop it and Levin to protect you're a worthless ass!"
Green electricity crackled around him it sparked wildly a fierce determination on his face as he took a fighting stance.
"You know me better than that Kacchan. I don't lie." He said he's fist raised, as he took a deep breath in."Do you remember the day when I said I wasn't trying to compete against you?"
Bakugou's glare intensified, Midnight raised her whip she could tell the two were ready,
"I take it back."
"Begin!!"
"RAAH!!" Bakugou rocketed himself forward, Izuku's Danger sense went off as the blonde raised his right hand for a right hook. Izuku knew Katsuki wouldn't do the same trick Sero and Uraraka nearly got him with that, but thanks to the Omnitrix's sometimes mis-transformation he was quick to adapt.
Raising his right arm to block Bakugou's swing, who swung early and flipped for an axe kick,
"You really think I'd fall for that crap again!!"
"Nope." Izuku grabbed his leg holding a tight grip on his leg flinging the angry blonde over his shoulder and slamming him to the concrete. He then backflipped over the Bakugou who was on the floor.
"MIDORIYA DRAWS FIRST BLOOD!! SEEING THROUGH THE FAKE OUT!"
Katsuki exploded off the floor and rocketed himself towards Bakugou, Izuku using Danger sense charged forward to the currently exploding Bakugou as they were about to clash Midoriya ducked underneath him before leaping into the air and sent an axe kick to which the blonde quickly blocked feeling the weight and power behind the kick made him smile, as he then felt a foot on his arm as Deku using him as springboard backflips and landing on the concrete he charged forward, using some quick movement broke down Bakugou's defence before placing a hand to the ground as Bakugou's face soon met Izuku's foot as he was kicked in the face.
Kendo watching smiled seeing the moves he taught him being used, Izuku refused to relent on his assault as Bakugou was met with a flurry of attacks of punches to his midsection, before a right hook to his face.
The whole time, Midoriya had slowly and steadily begun moving faster
He began to send rapid kicks to Bakugou's chest, rapidly kicking using Bakugou's upper body as steps on stairs,
"GASP! MIDORIYA IS USING LIU KANGS SIGNATURE MOVE!!"
Bakugou grabbed his leg, Izuku surprised as Bakugou using explosions slammed him hard onto the concrete, he propelled himself into the air before he he rocketed towards Midoriya.
Izuku's Danger sense went of crazy he saw the incoming Bakugou who aimed his palms right at him and set off an explosion Izuku acted quickly moving fast as the explosion tore through the concrete.
Bakugou not wasting any time launched at Izuku who was in the air as Bakugou maneuvered under him.
"If you won't transform I'll force it out!!" He yelled out as Danger sense went crazy as Bakugou aimed his palms before releasing a massive explosion similar to the one he had used on Uraraka's motor shower attack just double the power!
The audience gasped in horror as the greenate took the explosion head-on a massive cloud of smoke.
The girls of class 1-A watched in horror but tried to keep from shouting his names and watched hopefully.
From atop the smoke cloud, one Izuku Midoriya who was seemed unconscious's body was scorched, a smoke trailed coming from his body,
"Oh, you're still alive!?"Bakugou exclaimed before he blasted into the air he exploded into the air a sadistic glee in his eye.
"C'mon Izuku!"
"You can do this!"
"Don't let him win!"
"Win!"
Bakugou reached Izuku into the air and aimed his palm"If that's not enough to bring out your forms then-!"
He was cut off as Midoriya's eyes shot open grabbed his arm and grabbed the blonde's throat, green electricity crackling even more as he roared"AH!"
Before while in mid-air depending downwards slammed into the ground the shockwave pushed back the smoke as the ground cracked behind Bakugou."GAH!!"
With that exclaimed of sudden pain he blasted Bakugou Izuku sending him blasting back as he fell on his stomach. Izuku still reeling from the explosion he took head-on before feeling a boot slam onto his elbow and a knee on his back, keeping him down.
Bakugou felt the slamming he had just taken, "This whole has been one fuck up after another because this useless, worthless didn't understand his place! Thinking his the best? Fuck that! That pink bitch thinks he's the shit?! This fucking piece of shit! I'll prove I'm the best!!"
katsuki's palms sparked before Izuku felt a burning on his back as an explosion combusted on his back, his clothes singed
Explosion after explosion seething burning pain coursed throughout his body.
"I was supposed to be the only one from our pierce of shit school to get here!!" He blasted another explosion stepping onto Izuku's arm."This was supposed to be my path to victory but you had to go and ruin it! You who was never meant supposed to be here!!!"This was accompanied by another explosion.
"But NO! I told your worthless not to apply! I told you you were useless! Worthless and you even that annoying pink bitch and earlobe bitch think your some shit! And even got that Ponytail rich bitch to think your some genius! Ha! What a load of horse shit!"
Katsuki set off another explosion which the audience winced.
"Deku!"
He blasted again
"I'm--"
Midoriya's memories raced back every time someone called him worthless, useless, every damn day for fourteen years of his life! He was reminded that he was nothing! Some mistake and honestly? He was sick of it.
"Will you shut up!!"
Emerald electricity began to crackle around him.
"I'm sick of everyone telling me that I'm useless! That I'm worthless! And I don't care what you say! "
The emerald crackled only grew brighter as Midoriya's strength seemed to only increase.
"Wait, is he getting stronger?" Bakugou thought as he felt himself being pushed back.
"And honestly I'm mostly sick of you!"
As Bakugou was about to send another explosion, the greenate spun around and grabbed his arm before with a 15% punch across the edge of the face he was sent flying back!
Bakugou coughed out a bloody tooth as he looked to see where Midoriya was only to see his fist as he was punched across the face.
"I have been on a constant use of 8% of One For All that my entire limit..."
Midoriya with incredible speed appeared in front of Bakugou again as he cocked his fist back before sending an uppercut, Bakugou widened as he flew into the air and fell back feeling his jaw.
Midoriya ran towards him Bakugou explosions at the ready as the boy slid between his legs jumped into the air and sent an axe kick slamming him back to the ground.
He backflipped into the air in a similar style to the way Mina backflipped Bakugou widened before rocketing away as Izuku's foot slammed into the ground cracking it!
"Holy shit!" Kaminari said shocked at what they were witnessing.
"...My entire body limit is now 16%!!"
Bakugou seeing Izuku was moving faster had to pull out his trump card, he rocketed into the air and began to spin at a rapid pace.
"HOWITZER IMPACT!!" Bakugou shouted as he approached Midoriya was crouched down, and glared at the incoming Bakugou.
"Hope this works! 70% One For All!!
He amplified his left arm, One For All dancing around his arm, he could feel his arm feel like it was breaking but he gritted his teeth through the pain and shot towards him!
Both rocketed their hands forward towards one another. For the second time that day, the audience had to take cover from a massive explosion ripping across the stadium. A large tornado of smoke and light consumed the ground area of the arena. Eventually, the light died. Everyone slowly looked back down onto the field, the arena was nothing but rubble at that point.
Midnight at coughs up some of the smoke she and Cementos were forced to endure throughout the whole fight.
The smoke cleared as Bakugou had Midoriya pinned once again."I win!" Bakugou said with a sadistic smile.
Izuku let out a chuckle. Midnight and Cementos shivered this was a chuckle they were familiar with, Bakugou felt his arms grabbed by Izuku in a tight iron grip.
The chuckle meant one thing to the boy, he had won, or in other cases, he had just trapped their prey or whoever was unfortunately was forced to face the man.
"Ka--Bakugou, I want you to hear this carefully, before well...! Don't you ever, and I mean never call my friends, those insulting and degrading names again!"
His glare sent shivers as he tried to pull back he found Izuku's grip tighter and impossible to free himself from.
"Shut up, I'll call -"
"You wanna know why I have been hanging around with Jirou?"
Bakugou struggled through the grip, lightning crackled around him, Bakugou could swear red veins appeared around his throat, and Izuku opened his mouth.
" Houston..."
He widened. "What is he-?"
"HOOOOOWWWWLLLL!!!"
Izuku's voice exploded from his mouth in a violent and concentrated sound wave right upwards.
The ground beneath him cracked, Bakugou had blasted away, his head was rattled, his ears were sore, and he
"HOLY FUCK!? HOW CAN HE DO THAT WITHOUT HIS FORM ECHO ECHO?!"
"It is just a new application of his quirk, he had been practising it for weeks, it's not new power just a different application of it. " Aizawa commented.
"You did it kid!" All Might said with a grin and a clenched fist.
"Wait is that why he had singing lessons with Jirou?!" Hagakure asked in shock.
"Y-Yeah... I... guess."Kyouka said in shock.
...
Bakugou holding his aching ears soon saw Midoriya coming at full speed he's fist cocked back, and Bakugou prepared to blast the nerd with a powerful blast when Izuku ducked down avoiding the explosion.
He hit the floor before momentarily breaking dancing and sending a powerful kick at 20% Bakugou was shot into the air, and Mina blushed, as Midoriya shot up like a bullet in the air.
He spun upside down rapidly."Luna..." The eyes suddenly began to widen as Miruko grabbed the rails."Hey, hey wait a minute!!"
"...ARC!"
He landed a powerful kick on Bakugou who felt some ribs break as like a meteor hitting the Earth he shot down and cracked down as he slammed the ground cracked a dust cloud appeared as Bakugou took deep wheezing breaths in.
He tried to slowly get back up when Midoriya came down's feet shot down, and Bakugou widened as Deku slammed his feet straight into Bakugou's chest pile driving him into the ground he coughed out blood, he's eyes went white.
Izuku taking a good look at Bakugou's broken, bloody body got out of the crater he had created using Kacchan's body, he wheezed and coughed the burning sensation in his back still there, he was covered in scorch marks, One For All began to dim, the crackling stopped. He was breathing heavily.
Midnight got back up and began to check up on Bakugou she raised her whip, and the area widened in realization, Naomi looked ready to tear out her out. Ishida looked catatonic."Hey..."
Class 1-A and some B began to look in anticipation before teary eyes relief began to cross their face, as Midnight cracked her whip, it echoed throughout the silent arena.
"Katsuki Bakugou...is knocked out! Izuku Midoriya wins!!!!"
With that declaration, the arena exploded into cheers and roars!
"Hey... what is this bulletshit? Get up Bakugou! You can't lose this... this...! C'mon get up!! What are you doing jokes over! Haha! We had our fun! Seriously get back up and show him why you're better! Why his worthless!!"
His plead was drowned out by the cheering of the crowd, Naomi looked catatonic herself, she watched as Bakugou didn't make any moves to get back up, and as Midoriya stood victorious.
"He... won."She said, her eyes unblinking.
Ishida, who was leaning on the railing his eyes couldn't comprehend, but it was a fact, "Izuku Midoriya, the useless Deku, beat the prodigy, someone destined for greatness Katsuki Bakugou"
Someone he was sure he could never beat was beaten by him? Out of all people him! He gritted his teeth in anger.
...
Midoriya took in the crowd as they cheered, Todoroki, who had watched the whole thing, could only give a "Hmph" of approval.
"Now I have to win my next match, so I can face him myself even without his forms he's dangerous." Todoroki thought, "No matter what, I can't underestimate him, regardless of what form he chooses."
Izuku laid his back on the ground, exhausted. From afar he could see All Might clapping furiously, he saw his friends and classmates congratulate him from the corner of his eye he saw his old classmates in a state of shock and if he was being honest he could care less about what they thought of him.
He turned to his new classmates and smiled."Those who's approval and opinion actually matter." He laid down with a smile and closed eyes as he had a bright infectious smile radiating from him. Before he slowly let unconsciousness take him.
"Oh, now he's definitely coming to intern with me!" She said, cracking her knuckles.
"You know he has to decide himself, right?"
She cracked her knuckles and laughed like it was a challenge.
"Poor kid," Hawks said with a sweatdrop.
...
Midoriya expected two things to happen when he woke up, first would be the ruthless rath of Recovery Girl, but to his surprise, she was patiently sitting as she saw him wake up.
"Oh, dearie you're finally awake, that's good we healed you up enough, you're free to head back to your friends who the eagerly waiting for you."
"O-Oh, r-right."
And the next thing he was expecting was Bakugou going off on a rampage screaming at the top of his lungs demanding a rematch, but to his surprise, the blonde seemed to still be unconscious.
He then felt rumbling he looked at the T.V. to see Pony completely in cased in ice and shivering.
"Oh, no Pony."
Izuku grabbed some new P.E. clothes and began to leave, when the door of the infirmary closed Bakugou opened his eyes, he had bags under his eye and a few black spots. He looked tired guaranteed he just fought like hell but he seemed almost like he had lost all his fire. There was no sugar coating he was utterly beaten, smashed into the ground figuratively and literally.
"He...didn't even use a form." He said to himself as he stared at the ceiling with a dead gaze.
...
As Izuku walked back to his class, Recovery Girl had walked her magic plu Nurse White Midoriya's stamina had been rejuvenated, not only was he able to use double the percentage of One For All, but he beat Bakugou, no one can say he didn't win, he beat him.
"Midoriya!!" The class said minus Todoroki and Tokoyami yelled upon seeing the greenate as he was suddenly wrapped from side to side by Hagakure and Ashido who were both hugging him.
"Dude that match was insane!!"
"You put that blonde jackass in his place!!"
"The battle was far from elegant but you were fabulous!"
"Not even using a form Midoriya? You are making us look bad!"
Izuku didn't if it was the praises or the fact two beautiful girls were hugging him right now, honestly, it was probably both as his face exploded into a blush.
"T-Thanks guys. I-I can't believe I actually won."
Uraraka smiled."I knew you would win."
"How were you able to perform such an attack with voice?" Momo was stunned when she saw the unexpected attack.
"Right! I really wanna know!" Hagakure exclaimed.
"Oh? You know how I can focus my power around my body or certain parts?"
"Yes?" Momo said.
"Well... I'm just using the same principle just with my vocal cords and lungs and thank you Jirou for helping it really helped a lot!"
Kyouka herself blushed but the rest of the class looked stunned.
"You can do that?!" Sero asked echoing the shock of everyone.
To which the boy nodded before Shoji had to ask as he remembered he also broke his bones when he used his quirk.
"Hm... So what would happen if you used your full power when performing that move?" Shoji inquired.
Izuku put a finger to his chin."I guess the same thing with my bones my lungs... would..." A dark realization soon dawned on him."...Explode."
"..."
Izuku said putting two fingers like a schoolgirl. There was a silence that impregnated the area.
Two hands were placed on his shoulder, by one Hagakure. "ARE YOU CRAZY!?" She said moving him back and forth rapidly."AAAHH!!"
Kaminari however thought something else."Badass."
This earned glares from the girls, he shivered from the glare even Kodai with an unexpressive had scowl, he made himself small and hid behind Tokoyami."I-I mean Midoriya that was really irresponsible..." He looked at the girls who still had the glare on him.
"A-And stupid! Like Me kind of stupid!" He closed his eyes as the girls gave a nod before turning to Izuku with a worried look.
"Uh... no risk no reward?" Izuku said with a chuckle. To which the guys collectively smacked their foreheads.
"NOT WHEN THE RISK IS YOUR LUNGS BLOWING UP!!!" They all shouted.
"WITH ICE NOW MELTED OUR NEXT COMPETITORS PLEASE ARRIVE AT YOUR ARENA WITHIN 15 MINUTES!"
"Uh, look at that seems my match is up!" Izuku was about to run away from his scolding he was then grabbed by Momo as she began dragging him away, and Kyouka followed behind. "M-Momo I--!"
"You still have plenty of time We are at least going to come up with a strategy that doesn't result in you breaking bones or exploding your lungs."
In truth, she knew she didn't have any time but she wanted to speak with him in private.
"Izuku, I know this may be a tall order but please refrain from hurting yourself too much. I know you have excellent control of your quirk... But I can't help but feel extremely worried." Momo shared her concerns which were also shared by the other girls but she voiced them out.
"I-I can't promise that... b-but I can promise to try?"
The girl sighed in contentment she knew that was the best answer she was going to get.
Kyouka then decided to speak up." So... please tell me you have a plan in mind?"
"I-I uhm... May or may not have a plan in mind.
"I-I want to win! I-I just... Am also see no reason to help him out y'know? just... a little bit."
Both girls furrowed their brows, Momo crossed her arms giving him a questioning look.
"...Help how?"
Izuku began to back up."O-Oh... You know...Maybe, helphimusehisleftside."
The girls furrowed their eyebrows from the gibberish he spouted out.
"Pardon me?"
"What?"
"...Help him use his left side."
Momo had a blank expression, Kyouka used the pinkie to clean out her ears and wiped her earjacks near Izuku's mouth.
"Huh, that's funny I could've heard you say something completely insane. Wanna run that by me again?"
Izuku just sighed."Look, i-it's everything he told us, I don't want him suffering with this, to deny a part of himself all because of the expectations placed on him, to feel that part of him ruined his life... I-I have to know the feeling."
Kyouka and Yaoyoruzu looked at each other as the girl bit her lip from saying something.
"Look, I know I probably sound like a crazy person--"
"You are."
"--But I have to at least try, this might bite me in the ass, but I'm at least going to try."
Momo sighed."I don't know why you feel you have to help Todoroki I'm sure you have your reasons even though they seem illogical to me, I'll put my faith in you."
Kyouka herself patted him on the back."...I still think you're absolutely crazy."
"But... I know you're going to help him regardless of what I say even though he's been a massive asshole to you."
Izuku then nodded with a smile before walking away.
...
Izuku was walking to the entrance to the tunnel downstairs when Danger sensed pinged, the atmosphere suddenly became a little warmer.
"So you're the one who's been making waves this year," Came the recognizable that any hero nerd would know.
He turned around he's eyes bulged out as he was in the presence of the number 2 hero."Endeavour!!"
"I've heard of your performance at the USJ incident they say you have flames that rival my own." He's narrowed Izuku shook a bit as he gulped.
"T-That is a bit of an exaggeration," Izuku said trying to leave as fast as possible.
"Heh, no I'm more positive you will bring out my son's flames, your forms are powerful and even without them you have strength comparable to All Might."
Izuku had a cold sweat running down his forehead
"O-Oh, well I...never thought about it that way," Izuku said, nervously
'Sorry but I should get going. I have a match to compete." Izuku then said as he walked past the Pro hero.
"Is it possible that Endeavour knows about One For All? No, he probably would have mentioned it. he's the one person I can't let him find out about All Might's secret. Or of the Omnitrix." Izuku thought as he continued to walk away from the flame hero slowly quickening his pace.
"It's my Shoto's duty to surpass All Might as the No. 1 hero," Endeavor said which made Izuku stop walking as Endeavour looked at him over his shoulder
"And his match with you will be a good testing ground to see how much training he has left. So, hit him hard and force him to use his fire. Don't disgrace yourself or him by holding back." Endeavour said as Izuku's mind goes right back to when he and Shoto had their conversation ear
That's all I wanted to say. I apologize for bothering you." Endeavour said while walking away. Izuku had enough and decided to say his mind
"Endeavour..." Izuku called out to the No. 2 hero which made the hero stop walking and turn to face our hero
"I am not All Might," Izuku said which caused Endeavour to get confused at the obvious fact
"What? What are you talking about?" Endeavour asked before Izuku started speaking again
"And the same goes for Todoroki," Izuku said before turning to face the Pro Hero
"He may be your son, but he isn't you," Izuku said as the two stared each other down before the student in training began to walk again
"Tch, just like Hisashi, "Endeavour growled out the boy stopped in his tracks and turned around with a confused look on his face.
"H-How do you know that name?"
"Huh? It's your father's name? Right? I recognized those freckles anywhere."
"I-I... How did you know my dad?"
"Huh? What he never mentioned me? Hmph! Same way All Might does, we went to the U.A. He and All Might were rivals, brothers even, you would never see them apart." Endeavour said before stomping away with a clearly furious mumbling something 'Bastard didn't even mention me'
Izuku walked downstairs rubbing his face."A-All Might knew my dad? N-No he would've said something, but why would Endeavor lie? No, he has no reason to lie, b-but if he went to U.A. how come no one mentioned it? Does mom know? Why didn't or wouldn't tell me? Calm down Izuku I'll ask him myself. "
...
Bakugou soon came to class 1-A there was a sort of awkward silence as everyone could see the sad look on his face. Kirishima moved to his side.
"Hey, Bakugou... You okay bro?"
"Whatever." He said with no anger as he slumped in his chair, Kyouka and Momo somewhat glared at him, to which he did not react.
"Look, dude, it was just--"
"I don't need your pity." He said as he just tried to watch the upcoming match.
Kaminari just shook his head in disappointment."Typical--"He's eyes shot open
Kaminari suddenly stopped mid-sentence he looked around frantically. "S-Something isn't right."
"Uh, what's up with Kaminari?" Tokoyami asked pointing at Kaminari who looked panicked.
Midoriya who was in thrawled by what the number 2 hero said he began walking and failed to notice the the flickering lights in the hallway.
"Could he be telling the truth? B-But..." He continued walking Danger sense went off and at the same time, he saw Todoroki walking up to the arena and falsely assumed that he was the danger.
"No, I need to--" A crackling sound could be heard.
"Midoriya move out of the way!!" Kaminari shouted from the stance but couldn't be heard from the roar of the sports fans.
His eyes shot open a burning sensation was felt from the back, as a bolt of electricity blasted him right out of the tunnel,
Todoroki stopped in his tracks and widened, the stadium gasped in shock before slowly becoming quiet, Midnight hurriedly ran up to Midoriya whose body twitched and a few sparks of electricity.
Class 1-A and 1-B looked shocked more than anything as they gasped in horror eyes widened like dinner plates.
