While everyone is searching for teams for the Cavalry Battle, Boruto senses something a little bit off right now, "..." glancing up at sky and puts a hand over his right eye as the wind blows to a small degree.
"Yo, Uzumaki, you good?" Kaminari asks, snapping him out of his thoughts.
"Uh... yeah. It's nothing." He replies.
"Perfect, because now..." The electric quirk user grins as several 1-A classmates gather around Boruto, who looks around back and forth in a dramatic way.
"What is all this?!" He asks.
"You gotta chose which of us you want on your team." Kaminari said, "And I think me and you should join up, since we both have lightning quirks and mines can add more firepower to yours." He sparkles some electricity in his left palm with a smirk, "What do ya say?"
Boruto thinks about it for a sec with a finger to his chin and replies, "Valid point..." He considers it, but still has to choose out of a few of his gathering classmates, which he causes him to dramatically look back and forth as Toru, Rikodo, and Minoru raises their hands in wanting to be picked, "This is gonna be mess..." He sweat-drops in thought.
Opening 2 "Peace Sign" by Kenobi Yo Nezu
Opens to the U.A. Sports festival arena as the sun raises over the stadium. Looking down from arena side as the wind blows, Izuku and Boruto smirk/smile down at the middle of the battle ring, ready to face the Sports festival head on before turning and giving each other a high-five before the logo appears.
We first zoom through a few students of Class 1-A preparing for the sports festival in various places(Ochaco doing arm stretches. Sarada cracking her knuckles before punching the air in practice. Eijiro stretching downward while sitting against the wall. Tenya stretching back his left turbo leg. Sumire doing shoulder stretches. Iwabe swinging his earth hammer up and down. Katsuki stretching out his legs. Boruto doing squats with his arms out and forward. Izuku stretching with his arms bended back. Shoto doing arm circles and breaths of fresh air upon being finished.)
We then cut to the U.A. Sports festival arena where the battles take place with the main competitors unleashing their signature attacks: Boruto throws down a bolt of lighting. Izuku's finger-flick smash release a shockwave. Shoto releasing a wave of ice. Sarada comes from above with a punch that creates a small crater in the ground. Eijiro punches forward with his hardening quirk. Shikadai using shadow possession. Tenya dashing with his turbo engines activated. Mitsuki firing off snake lightning. Shinki attacking with a wave of Iron Sand with his arms crossed. Shinso turns with a glare. Iwabe smashes his earth weapon to the ground in using stone edge. Tokoyami releasing dark shadow to attack. Katsuki firing off explosions from both hands before attacking bare-handed. Tsubaki slashing the air with her sword covered in blue aura. Hoki launching an earth pillar. Tetsutesu punching forward with his steel quirk. Hatsume turns with grin and hands behind back.
Next shows Naruto, All Might, Present Mic, Midnight, and Shota(still covered in bandages) turning back to Class 1-A, who glare at them with determination as they're ready to give it their all during the Sports festival.
Last shot shows everyone in their costumes and jumping in the air, diving straight into battle.
Chapter 25: Cavalry Battle
Meanwhile, Izuku is panicking frantically as everyone is avoiding him because his head is worth ten million points and it puts him in a tough spot.
"Hey Deku, wanna team up?" Ochaco asked, getting his attention.
"URARAKA!" He cries out with bursting tears dramatically, "I-Is it really okay?! Everyone'll probably be after me because of my ten million points!" He exclaims as she wipes herself from his tear shower.
"If we run away the whole time, then we'll win, right?" She asks and smiles brightly, "It's better to team up with people like!"
Izuku's face scrunches up while blushing, like his heart was about to squeeze, but was glad since he wanted to team up with her too, "Now we just need one more person."
"Hey, Lida!" He calls out, getting the turbo engine quirk user's attention. After that, they form up and start to strategize.
By the time Izuku finishes the plan and wants to find one last member, Tenya speaks up, "A good strategy... but I'm sorry." He apologizes, which surprises them. Even though he sees the two as great friends, he views the One-for-all quirk user as a rival as well, just like Shoto, Katsuki, and Boruto. So he leaves and joins up with Shoto, Kameko, and Momo. This leaves Izuku to find two more team members before time is up.
"This is our team throughout this cavalry battle, so let's win and take first place!" Boruto grins in determine with a raise of his fist, standing with his team: Kaminari, Mitsuki, and Sumire.
"You said it man! We're gonna shock things up out there!" Kaminari's fired up himself.
"Not too much..." Boruto sweat-drops and chuckles, "We don't need going 'stupid' on us now."
"Hey!" Kaminari exclaims dramatically, "At least let me have a moment..."
Sumire giggles before stating, "This seems like a well-balanced team, Boruto." She smiles, "I'm glad to be a part of it."
"I recommended for you to be picked, since you're strong too after all." Mitsuki said, recalling how she was able to keep up and fight evenly with him during the Ghost incidents.
"Really?" Sumire asks, blinks in surprise.
"Yep." Boruto chimes in, "Though, I was gonna pick you either way." He smiles, getting her to blush a little, but nods happily.
Noticing her blushing for him, "Lucky...!" Kaminari thought in jealously.
"Alright, so here's the plan." The whiskered teen begins strategizing with them.
"We're gonna show them what we're made of guys." Sarada turns to her team: Shikadai, Chocho, and Inojin.
"That's right Sarada, we'll take those ten million from Midoriya and take the top spot!" Chocho's pumped.
"I swear, you're usually not the one to be raring to go sometimes, chubs." Inojin said.
"Being raring to go is a good way to not be nervous." She replies, "And I've been that way before the obstacle race even started."
"I guess that makes sense for some of us... but it's still a drag to me." Shikadai sighs, hands in pockets.
"Ugh..." Iwabe is speechless at this team of him, Metal, Kyoka, and especially, Yuga, who holds his stomach in agony, "This team is unbalanced. Are you sure we're gonna win with this?"
"Beggars can't be choosers, alright? I mean, look around..." Kyoka points to the other students forming teams, "Everyone else seems to have already picked their teams. So this will have to do, whether it's balanced or not."
"Fine..." Iwabe sighs, "Point taken, but it means Aoyama will be the rider."
"Huh... why me?" Yuga asks, still trembling with hurt stomach.
"It makes sense, considering you're in no condition to run with a tummy ache, Aoyama." Metal agrees with that, "We won't set you up to be in a bad position." He smiles, making Yuga glimmer in amazement at the concern for him.
"Alright, which means will be the carriers." Kyoka's on board with this and nods, "Not a bad idea."
"I chose the three of you because we'll make a stabled formation possible." Shoto speaks with Kameko, Momo, and Tenya, "Kameko, you take the left wing and use your quirk to keep enemies at bay."
"G-Got it." He stutters in reply.
"Yaoyorozu, you'll take the right wing and focus on defense." He advises, and she nods, "Lida, you'll take the front for mobility and physical defense."
Tenya understands and adds, "And you'll be attacking and creating diversions with ice and fire, is that right?"
"Not quite..." Shoto looks up at the stance, seeing his father with flames around his shoulders, eyebrows, chin and mustache(Endeavor), "When I'm in battle..." He clenches his fist, "I never use my left side." He glares at Endeavor, having no intention of doing as he pleases.
Meanwhile with Class 1-B, "Everyone is foaming at the mouth for Class 1-A, why is that? Because they're so full of themselves as Tetsutesu said earlier." A guy with blonde hair and blue eye speaks, "The only difference between us and them is that they fought a bunch of villains. Just because we're class 1-B doesn't mean we're second rate and can't win this whole thing." Neito smirks, "Let's show those jerks what we can do." He speaks to his team before turning to Shinki, "Are you also with me, Shinki?"
"..." He thinks about it for a second and replies, "A plan to split up and get rid of Class 1-A during this round while only our class moves on to the next stage..." He understands, "Not a bad idea, I'll go with it."
"Great. I knew you'd agree with me, since earlier you said doing this in your father's honor." Neito said and knows, "And this will be the perfect chance."
"..." Shinki turns to glance at Boruto, standing with his team, hoping to defeat them.
"Something wrong, Shinki?" Pony asks.
"Nothing." He simply replies, "Let's go and get ready." He walks off with her, Yodo, and Araya.
"Ahh... Do you guys really think that we can pull this off..." A girl with brown hair/two pigtails and black eyes(Namida) stutters.
"Sure we're sure." Replies a girl with green-eyes(cat-like pupils) and spiky brown hair,(Wasabi) "Besides, you can't think negatively at times like this or we actually might lose." She tells Namida.
"I'm with Wasabi on that one." Enko(having shoulder-length hair with a clip) agrees, "Tsubaki chose us because she trusts us our abilities."
"..." A girl of short stature, pink eyes, thick eyebrows, and long ponytail hair glances to the other teams before replying, "Yeah." She adds, "Make sure to keep your eyes open, because we'll never know if even our own class will come for us." She advises, which the three nod in understanding.
"We're going straight for Midoriya's team as soon as this fight starts." Tetsutetsu declares with his team.
"Yeah." A boy with a mask and messy hair with purple eyes, "We aim to settle for first place so let's make it count."
"You got that right." Juzo agrees, so does Ibara.
The timer goes off for the second to begin and everyone is in positions with their teams formed, preparing to go head-to-head in team vs. team. The battle royal begins:
Team Midoriya: 10,000,325 points
Team Uzumaki: 705 points
Team Uchiha: 600 points
Team Todoroki: 675 points
Team Bakugo: 580 points
Team Shinki: 800 points
Team Tetsutetsu: 625 points
Team Shinso: 255 points
Team Monoma: 200 points
Team Mineta: 415 points
Team Hagakure: 320 points
Team Kurogane: 295 points
Team Aoyama: 355 points
Team Kendo: 105 points
Team Kamikiri: 100 points
Team Kodai: 90 points
Team Rin: 80 points
Team Goetsu: 65 points
Team Furasu: 45 points
Team Kuroi: 35 points
This is when Present Mic begins to countdown, "FIVE!"
"Get him." Going for Izuku, Katsuki cracks his knuckles as he's the rider while Eijiro, Mina, and Hanata carry him.
"FOUR!"
"He's ours." Todoroki declares, being the rider.
"THREE!"
"We're getting those points, no matter what." Sarada declares, being the rider and carried by Shikadai(front), Inojin(left), and Chocho(right).
"TWO!"
"Ten million points, here we come!" Boruto gets ready, being the rider(Kaminari at the front, Mitsuki on the left and Sumire carrying from the right.)
"ONE!"
"Let's do this!" Izuku tightens his the ten million points around his head, determined to go, along with Fumikage, Ochaco, and Mei.
"BEGIN!" Midnight signals as the horn goes off.
At this instant, everyone is heading straight for Midoriya's team for that ten million.
"It's basically one big battle to steal ten million points!" Tetsutesu exclaims.
"Hahahaha! I'll be taking that headband, Midoriya!" Toru declares while laughing.
"Not even giving us a chance? Such to the fate of the pursuit." Fumikage prepares dark shadow, "What's the plan, Midoriya?"
"That's easy... we're running away!" Izuku points to the other direction.
"I don't think so!" Tetsutesu yells out, and at that moment, Juzo uses his mud quirk to soften the ground under their feet to trap and prevent them from escaping.
"Oh no... I can't get out!" Ochaco tries to but to no avail.
"Uraraka! Hatsume!" The freckled teen prepares to push a button, "Watch your faces!" He advises, which the girls do just that before he presses the button to the jetpack, making it activate to blast them in the air and away from the other teams.
"He flew? Damn support course!" Tetsutetsu's team turns around, "After them!" He yells.
"While you do that, I'll be taking this!" Sarada's team comes up and she steals his headband right after the bat.
"Shit!" Tetsutesu exclaims at having his points taken.
"YEAH, WATCH THOSE HEADBANDS! YOU CAN EVEN GO AFTER THOSE WHO DON'T HAVE TEN MILLION!" Present Mic comment.
"Jiro, get him!" Iwabe yells.
"I know!" She immediately uses her earphone cables to reach them, which is blocked by Dark Shadow, "Damn bird!" She scoffs.
"We're going after them too! Let's get some revenge guys!" Toru tells to Rikodo and Koji.
"Wait, Hagakure! Your headband's gone!" Rikodo exclaims.
"Huh..." Toru looks up at her invisible head and sees they're gone, "When did that happened?!"
It's revealed that Tsubaki took the headband while they were distracted and comments, "It's unprofessional to let your guard down while on a battlefield." She simply says with her eyes closed before putting the headband around her neck.
"Nice catch, Kurogane." Neito notes from afar, "This is Class B's time to shine now."
After Midoriya's team lands, they're again surrounded by incoming teams from different directions.
"We need to put some space between us." Tokoyami tells Midoriya, "We can't be caught standing still against multiple opponents!" He adds, which Ochaco nods and tries to move, but her foot's stuck on a purple ball.
"What? I'm stuck!" She tries to move, but to no avail.
"That's Mineta's ball... but where did it come from?" Izuku looks around, and finds Minoru and Asui on Shoji back while trying to get the headband from the freckled teen with a combination of her tongue and sticky balls.
"Midoriya, we need to go!" Fumikage yells quickly.
Izuku does just that and presses the button for the jetpack again to take off into then skies to break free, but that loses a hover sole in the process, "Ah! My baby's ruined!" Much to Mei's dismay.
"Sorry! But at least we got away!" He's relieved anyway.
As Midoriya celebrates to early, Boruto jumps after them and summons a clone to extend his lift-off with Gale palm.
"Boruto?!" He exclaims as he closes in.
"That headband is mine, Izuku!" He smirks and coats his right hand in lightning to prevent the freckled teen from countering and goes to grab it.
"Tokoyami!" He calls out, and Dark Shadow successfully shields them from the blonde's lightning Palm.
"That bird? Shoot!" Boruto scoffs as he begins falling, but luckily, a hand extension from Mitsuki grabs his arm and pulls him back to their team.
"WAIT?! UZUMAKI WAS SEPERATED FROM HIS HORSES, IS THAT OKAY?!" Present mic questions in surprised amazement.
"It is, since he didn't touch the ground!" Midnight allows it with a thumbs up.
"Aw man, you almost had him!" Kaminari said after they caught Boruto.
"Yeah, but they won't run forever..." The whiskered leader recovers in position.
After Izuku's team lands, he isn't off the hook yet as Katsuki is now the won to jump at him next, "Kacchan!"
"Don't think for a second that you're safe!" He roars as he's about to blast them.
"Tokoyami, again!" Izuku yells, which Dark Shadow manages to block the blast on time.
"The hell?!" Katsuki's surprised Hanata tapes him and pulls him back.
"Nice catch!" Eijiro complements as they catch the explosion quirk user.
"Nicely done, guys!" Izuku compliments in success so far.
"It's hard to control where we're going with just one foot." Ochaco warns.
"I understand." He nods, "At this rate, we can't take to it the skies. So we'll have to rely on Uraraka's Zero gravity and Tokoyami's Dark Shadow in order to survive."
After a couple minutes went by, the team ranking's suddenly begin to change, much to everyone's unexpected surprise, "Huh? It's kinda..." One of them comment.
"Hold on... THIS IS AN UNEXPECTED TURN." Present Mic comments in surprise while looking at the rankings, "Other than Midoriya's team, CLASS 1-A AIN'T LOOKING TOO HOT! EVEN BAKUGO AND UCHIHA ARE LOSING!"
Simultaneously, Sarada and Katsuki's headbands were taken by Tsubaki and Neito.
"Too easy." Tsubaki said.
"Huh...?!" Sarada's shocked to see that her points are gone and she's at zero.
"You're class is too small-minded, think bigger." Neito taunts to Katsuki.
"What did you say?!" The latter exclaims in question.
Neito explains that he and some of his classmates purposely lost the Obstacle Race in order to scout Class 1-A's Quirks and states that using their quirks just for the preliminary round was foolish on their part. While having his attention, "You're pretty famous, aren't you? For being attacked by the sludge villain." Neito smirks and taunts, "You'll have to tell me about it sometime. It must be strange to find yourself doing the victim role."
"Is it really okay to antagonize him?" Renga asks(having a brown-like bandage around his nose.)
"Why not? It makes it worthwhile." Neito shrugs, "I mean, he's down at zero and there's no way he'll climb out of the mud."
Now losing his temper, "Kirishima... we have a change of plan!" Katsuki sneers with the red aura of anger, startling Eijiro, Mina, and Hanata, "Before we take down Deku, we're going to kill everyone of of these 1-B idiots!" He declares, as Neito smirks, unconcerned.
"Heh... so Class 1-B really had this planned out and we didn't see it coming." Shikadai scoffs, "That lack of awareness is the reason why we have zero points right now."
"As much as I hate to admit it, I'll have to agree." Inojin nods.
"What should we do, Sarada?" Chocho asks.
"We're going after them." She replies with a look of determination at Tsubaki.
"You sure? It's probably best if we try out for other points..." Inojin suggests, but she shakes her head.
"Leaving without getting our points back is not an option." The Uchiha replies, while Tsubaki remains unconcerned without a care, "We'll go after Midoriya once that's done." She adds.
Surprised with her answer, the three nevertheless follow along with her in not being against it, "Sounds like a plan." Shikadai smirks.
Meanwhile, after Boruto's team steals the 100 point headband from Team Kamikiri, "What the hell? Get back here!" Togaru roars out to the blonde.
"No can do! I'll be keeping this!" He grins puts the and around his neck.
"After him!" Togaru exclaims and orders his carries to chase them however.
"Breakthrough." Mitsuki blows a small gust of wind from his mouth that stops Togoru's team place as they cover from his attack. .
"See ya!" Kaminari taunts along with Boruto as they retreat.
"This isn't over...!" Togaru sneers.
"It's best if the three of us just go after other points..." Shihai notes in a low tone.
"I concur." Tsuru agrees(a girl with long black hair, pulled back in a high ponytail with a lavender ribbon, and dark-colored eyes), "We can't waste time chasing them around."
"Grr... fine! But we're going full throttle from here!" Togaru declares to his 1-B teammates.
"So far so good, now all we need to do is get that ten million and we'll be fine." Boruto said as they keep moving around the field.
Just as he says that, "!" Mitsuki senses something coming and quickly warns, "Boruto, behind us!"
"Huh?" As he turns around, a hand that's looks to be made of black sand swoops in and steals the 705 point headband around the blonde's head, shocking him, "What?!" This leaves his team stuck at 100 points.
"He got us!" Sumire exclaims, stunned.
"When did he...!" Kaminari trails.
The one who stole it was known other than Shinki, who wraps it around his neck, along with his 800 points. He frowns and tells Boruto's team, "You guys were full of openings. How careless."
"Damn it...!" Boruto scoffs in frustration.
"AND NOW UZUMAKI'S TEAM HAS DECREASED IN POINTS!" Present Mic comments, taken back, "JUST WHAT IS UP WITH CLASS 1-A THIS TIME AROUND?!"
"So... looks like Class 1-B's stepping up." The whiskered teen cracks a smirk anyway, "Then again, it was only a matter of time before someone came after our points, and here we are."
"Come on man, what's the plan?" Kaminari asks.
"What do you think?" Boruto pound his fist together, "We'll regain points back before taking the ten million, let's go!" He declares, earning a smirk from Mitsuki, while Kaminari and Sumire do the same, nodding their heads in backing him up.
Meanwhile, Izuku sees that Class 1-B is going after each teams of Class 1-A and believes that they are safe since none of them will be coming after his team through this commotion, however, he begins eating those words as his team is now face-to-face with Shoto's team, "I thought we had it made..." He mutters, "But guess I was wrong."
Shoto glares at the freckled teen's team and simply declares, "I'll be taking that now." He aims for the Ten million points, while Momo hands him a staff so he can freeze it and sticks it on the ground, making the ice spread around in blocking them off where they can't escape and to make sure no one else interferes.
"IT'S ANYONE'S GAME AS THE CAVALRY BATTLE ENTERS IT'S SECOND HALF!" Present Mic announces, "CLASS 1-B HAS MADE AN UNEXPECTED SHOWING, WHO WILL WIN THE TEN MILLION POINTS IN THE END?!"
Ending 3 "Dakara, Hitori ja nai" By Little Glee Monster
Starts at daylight with flower petals falling from a tree in and Ochaco turning her hand into a fist as she, Sumire, Sarada, Tsuyu, Mina, Chocho, Toru, Kyoka, and Momo laying down on the beautiful grass with smiles of enjoyment and relaxation while conversating and looking up at the sky.
As the ending plays, the next shot shows the 1-A girls fighting off giants together in their hero costumes while having each others backs. Next shows them chilling out at the park, exhausted after a long day of training. Kyoka sitting on the bench with a hand to her forehead, Sumire on her knees and Mina laying down(Both sighing of fresh air), Ochaco bending down in catching her breath, Tsuyu and Toru bending over the trashcan(puking a little bit), Chocho sweating a lot after a bunch of running, Sarada leaning against the tree with her glasses off and hand over her eyes, and Momo standing up straight and take a few breathes.
Next shows them walking in the rain in their school uniforms while looking at the screen with medium expressions, before the sky changes from overcast rain to daylight. It then switches to the Class 1-A girls in their hero costumes once again in completing an obstacle course together while looking back at some of the Class 1-A Boys(Izuku, Boruto, Katsuki, Mitsuki, Tenya, and Shikadai) and Shota, who watch them from the starting line.
It moves on to the 1-A girls running home on the sidewalk, with Tenya, Boruto, Izuku, Minoru, Katsuki, Mitsuki, and Shikadai chasing behind them in keeping up. Last shot shows the girls smiling after having a great time with today's class while flower pedals bloom in the evening sky on their way home before the logo shows in the end.
The Calvary Battle intensifies with Class 1-A facing off against Class 1-B(Boruto against Shinki, Katsuki against Neito, and Sarada against Tsubaki).
The 1-vs-1 matches almost approaches and I'm gonna have a blast writing those.
That'll be all for now and until next time!
