Midnight: First Years! These are the rules that you'll abide by, the game itself will last 15 minutes. Individual point values will be added together to reach your team total. Everyone will know how much you're worth thanks to your head bands. Swipe as many bandanas as you can to raise your team's score, stolen headbands must be worn from the neck up. So the more you steal the harder it'll be to manage them.And another thing, even if your bandana gets stolen or your team falls down, you can keep playing until time's up!
Momo: So it's anyones game then
Sato: Yeah and since there are 42 contestants there'll be 10 or 12 teams fighting the entire time
Yuga: Sounds hard
Mina: So if you lose your headband in the beginning you have more time to make up a plan
Tsuyu: well I don't know Mina maybe we should wait to see how the teams turn out before we start strategising
Midnight: This is going to be rough. You may use your quirks as much as you like, but there are still rules. Make a team fall on purpose and i'll slap you with a red card. You'll be disqualified
Bakugo turned his head angry " tsk" he clicked his tongue
Midnight: Now you've got 15 minutes to build your teams I recommend you get started
...
In the pro break room:
Death arms was smoking and watching the tv
Death arms: The sports festival isn't really about seeing how prepared they are to become heroes, it's more about simulating the competition they'll face if they go pro
Mt Lady: huh? What are you talking about ?
Death arms: we both know this county's over run with agencies right now, if you want to put food on the table you got to be willing to step on top of other heroes that was the whole point of the first round
Mt Lady: that's such a sad way at looking at our jobs
she said while covering her nose from the smoke
Kamui: Seriously, you've never had a problem stealing the spot light
he said angrily recalling how she took his moment on her debut day
Death Arms: but on the other hand even if you're battling each other for popularity there are plenty cases where you have to work together
Mt Lady: huh you're right it's just like this cavalry battle every point you score is not just for you but for your team mates as well. Plus you have to think about how your quirks work together and if you're compatible with them
Kamui: It's kind of like coordinating with your sidekick or doing quirk training with other agencies
he said trying to drink water but realising he still had his helmet on
Death arms: I'm sure at least some of the kids are thinking about all this, if they become pros it'll be their way of life
Mt lady: they still got a long way ahead of them
Back with Izuku:
Everyone started to form their teams, unfortunately no one wanted to team up with Izuku since he had the most points
Izuku thoughts: Just as I expected everyones teaming up with people in their homeroom class, it's too much of a gamble to partner with someone if you don't know what their quirk can do. I need to find a team of my own and fast...But everyone's totally avoiding me since i'm worth so much
he though sadly before walking slowly to Ojiro
Izuku: oh hey what's up Ojiro
Ojiro smiled nervously" sorry" he apologised while walking away causing Izuku to freeze in his spot
Izuku/Rokuro thoughts: IM/YOU'RE SCREWED
Izuku thoughts: *sigh* it make sense everyone's worried about their own head bands it's a better strategy to steal as many points at the end, and despite me using one for all not much is known about my quirk so no one has any confidence in me
Rokuro: *sigh* well we should prepare ourselves to go solo
Izuku thought sadly when
Uraraka: Hey Dekiru! Let's team up
Izuku broke out crying in joy
Izuku: Uraraka, are you sure everyone will be after me and my ten million stupid points tell me you're not kidding !
Uraraka: if we run away the whole time then we'll win right
Izuku: Run away !? You're either overestimating me or underestimating everyone here
Uraraka: Philly, anyway it's better to team up with people you like !
Izuku: *sniff**sniff* Thank you !!!!
He hugged her waist while on his knees but got up after a little bit" you're right for a game that requires so much team work it's smart to work with people you communicate smoothly with
Uraraka nodded with glee " in fact if we add your quirk and one other person you know what I think I might have a solid plan" he said before approaching Iida
Izuku: Iida!
Said boy turned to look at his friends before Izuku began telling him his plan
Izuku: The three of us would be horses with Iida in the front using Uraraka's quirk Iida and I would be way lighter so we would be able to maneuver around really easily. No one could catch us
Uraraka: good idea
Rokuro: Yep!!! A solid plan Izuku
Iida: A good strategy but I'm sorry, i'm afraid I have to refuse your offer
Izuku and Uraraka gaped
Iida: Since this all started i've been losing to you please don't take this as an insult you're a great friend but if I continue to follow you i'll never get stronger
he pushed his glasses up "Bakugo and Todoroki have challenged you already but they aren't the only ones who see you as a rival" Lida turned around and walked towards Todoroki and his team
Tenya: Midoriya i'll try my best to beat you
Uraraka: woah Iida
Izuku thoughts: so. It's already begun, everyone's an enemy i'm at the top and they'll all be coming for me I can't rely on anyone not this time
???: *giggle* perfect you're still alone and you're the star... TEAM UP WITH ME PERSON IN FIRST PLACE!!
Jumped the pink haired girl from earlier to Izukus face" NOT SO CLOSE!! WHO ARE YOU"
Rokuro: SHIT WHERE'D SHE COME FROM!!
??: *giggle* I'm a student in the support course. Name's Mei Hatsumei
Uraraka: Oh you're that weirdo from the obstacle course
Mei: we haven't met but i'd like to use your current fame to my personal advantage
Izuku/Rokuro: that's straight forward
Mei dashed up close and personal to Izuku
Mei: if I team up with you then i'll be in the spot light part of the team that everyone is keeping their eyes on!!
she got closer to him
Mei: that means my cute little babies will inevitably be seen by the company CEO's who are tuning into the sports festival
she got even closer nearly making him fall over
Mei: and following that line of reasoning this is the best way for my gadgets to get recruited
Uraraka: Hey could you slow down a minute did you bring babies here or...I mean
but Mei ignored her and focused on Izuku as she opened a treasure chest looking box revealing her gadgets
Mei: the support course specialises in creating equipment that helps heroes manage their quirks and increase their skills. Wahaha i've packed a ton of power babies to bring with me so i'm sure you'll find something you like floating around my arsenal
Izuku stared at the gadgets when one caught his eye
Mei: Oh, I see one's caught your eye! I made it based on a certain heroes backpack of course I added my own twist
Izuku: Wait I recognise that Air Jet the buster hero has one of those !
Mei: Giggle!!!
Izuku: I love that guy!!
Mei: Isn't he awesome!!!
Izuku and Mei were nerding out not realising Uraraka was still there and the girls were pressing against the glass so hard in jealousy it started cracking Inko just giggled at them
"they sure get along well." Uraraka watched the two of them talking and couldn't help but feel jealous
Izuku thoughts:Not being able to team up with Iida was a definite blow, I've got Hatsumei and Uraraka now. but I still need one more...Looks like everyone is in a team already it's fine but we still need one more but who!
Rokuro: hey Izuku
Izuku thoughts: Yeah ?
Rokuro: behind you
Izuku turned and his eyes widened when he saw a floating hand, which made him jump " AAAH!" screaming in fear as it flew towards its owner
??: *giggle* Sorry I just needed to see how you'd react glad you didn't disappoint
Izuku and the girls turned to face a girl with wavy dark green hair reaching her shoulders, a sharp teethy smile and wide eyes similar to IZukus
???: Hello fellow greeny
She greeted them while approaching and pointing to Izuku's hair
Izuku: W-Who are you ?
Setsuna: I'm Setsuna Togake from Class 1-B, and you're Izuku Midoriya, the boy who saved Elizabeth in me thanks for that by the way !
she said while shaking his hand
Izuku: It's a pleasure, Tokage so can I do something for you ?
Setsuna: Yep I want on your team so can I join ?
Izuku: Really !? Do you seriously want to join my team?!!!
Saying Izuku was surprised would be an understatement
Setsuna: Yep. Elizabeth said a lot of cool things about you and I want to see it with my own eyes!
Izuku: Sure ! welcome to the team!
Setsuna: Happy to work with you Midoriya
Setsuna looked to the corner of her eye at Elizabeth in Kendos group pouting angrily at her causing her to chuckle nervously" Sorry Elie" she thought to herself meanwhile Rimuri and the girls along with Ruby, Yang and Blake who were on the same team with Tokoyami were all glaring angrily at Izukus team
Rokuro: Izuku you take chick magnet to a whole other level
Izuku thoughts: huh?
timeskip
Midnight: Oh good it's time get this party started !
Mic: Hey hey look alive... After 15 minutes of teaming up 12 teams are ready to go head to head to win this whole thing !
Aizawa: I see some unexpected student combinations
Mic: Come on everyone get your hands in the air it's time for an Arena bending battle royal..Let me hear ya scream!!
Izuku tied his head band and put on a serious expression
Izuku: Are you ready
Uraraka: Yeah!
Izuku: Hatsumei
Hatsumei: *giggle*
Izuku: Setsuna
She nodded
Izuku: let's do this !!
Present Mic: Let's get this party started!!! One final countdown before the game starts
3
Bakugo: get him
2
Todoroki: He's ours
1!
Midnight: BEGIN!!
the game started and everyone charged at Izukus team
Tetsutetsu: It's basically one big battle for ten million points!
Hagakure: HAHAHA I'll be taking that headband Midoriya!
Ruby: THIS MEANS WAR
RWBT: CHARGE !!!!
Izuku thoughts: they're not even giving us a chance huh well this'll be fun!
Rokuro: I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE ANYMORE!!
Mei: here they come
Uraraka: it's all up to you Dekiru
Izuku: then our answers easy RUN AWAY !!
Tetsu: DON'T THINK SO!!
Juzo: Yeah
Juzo stomped against the floor turning it to liquid all the way to Izukus team sinking them into the ground
Izuku: What the!
Setsuna: I can't escape
Uraraka: What's happening !!
Izuku narrowed his eyes at Tetsus team " it must be that guys quirk" he thought to himself
Izuku: Uraraka, Hatsumei watch your faces
he said as the jetpack activated and they were launched into the air
Tetsu: He flew !! Damn support course after them!!
Hagakure: Jiro now !!!
Jiro:I know !!
she shouted launching firing her ear jacks to the team when when a unattached hand slapped them away
Jiro: WHAT THE !!!
Izuku smirked" great work Setsuna you're incredible really !!" he said making her blush " thanks!!" she exclaimed happily
Uraraka: we're landing!!!
she shouted as they landed on the other side of the field
Izuku thoughts: Urarakas quirk is awesome she's floating everything but her and the equipment!
Mei: so what do you think of my babies aren't they just precious ? These can be manufactured you know!
Izuku: excellent mobility your babies are amazing Hatsumei and so are you, to build such incredible gear you're brilliant
he said causing her to blush happily
Mei: thanks!!
Uraraka pouted" I'm the one who's making us float " she pouted looking away
In the teachers booth:
Rimuri: he's flirting with them and doesn't even realise it !
Shion: I want him to compliment me too!
she pouted
Shuna: and he has a team made of only girls stupid Izu!
Inko thoughts: Ara ara Izuku who knew my baby was becoming such a player just like his dad
Back the contestants:
Hagakure: They're not that far away come on Jiro full speed ahead!!
Sato looked up and noticed something missing
Sato: Hey wait Hagakure your head band's gone!!
Hagakure: Huh what no!!!
A few feet away from them was Monomas team as Monoma spun Hagakures head band around his index finger" well that was easy" he mocked them
Present Mic: Wow! Barely 2 minutes since we've started and it's already into a free for all! Yeah watch those headbands! You can even ignore the ten million and go after the other chart toppers!!
Mineta: HAHAHAHA this is too easy it's not a fight it's more like a masacre
he said hiding behind Shojis arm
Izuku: it's Shoji is he all by himself where's his team ?
he asked confused as Setsuna looked forward to the other teams charging at them and Uraraka saw Tetsutetsus team too
Setsuna: what we need is breathing room!
Mei: so what do we do!?
Uraraka: huh oh!
Izuku: is something wrong ?
He asked" yeah i'm stuck" she complained when Izuku saw why " that's Minetas ball... But where did it come from" Izuku asked looking around " from right over here... Hi Midoriya " he said from inside the gap of Shojis arm
Izuku: WHAT IS THAT EVEN ALLOWED!?
Midnight: Judges say yes !!!
Mineta went back behind the arms as a tongue shot out which Izuku dodged easily but Tetsu nearly got hit as it came back to its owner revealing Asui
Tsuyu: Impressive moves as usual
Izuku: Oh man you've got Asui in there too!?
Tsuyu hid as well" I told you to call me Tsu" she said firing her tongue and Mineta his balls all while Izuku dodged them all
Setstuna: we gotta get outta here!!
Izuk activating the jet pack to launch into the air and avoid the other teams but breaks one of Hatsumeis boots in the process
Mei: AAAH MY BABY'S RUINED !!!
she cried
Izuku: Sorry but at least we got away from them
he apologised before they heard an explosion and looked down to see Bakugo charging at them
Ruby: I got you !!!
She shouted about to grab Izukus head band when Setsunas arm came straight at her poking her eyes and blinding her causing Ruby to fall back down into her teams arms " Argh my eyes" she said dramatically rubbing them. The crowd cheered and present mic jumped out his seat
Present mic: WAAAAAH Ruby Rose separated from her horses is that even allowed !!
Midnight: technically she never hit the ground so judges say yes !
Izuku's team fortunately landed away from some teams leaving some time for them to rest
Izuku: Nicely done Uraraka.
Ochako: It's hard to control where we're going with just one foot!
Izuku: I understand
Rokuro: since we can't fly anymore Izuku we'll need to rely on Setsunas quirk and our own powers which means
Izuku thoughts: yeah i'm ready if it becomes nessacery
Present mic: As expected everyones after the 1st place team giving them no time to catch their breaths what a show this is
In the pro break room:
Death arms: wow those class 1A guys are pretty good
Outside:
Present mic: Now who wants to take a look at each teams points so far, it's been 7 minutes so lets get those rankings on the screen
He said as the points showed but it left everyone frozen in shock and confusion
Present Mic: hold on here, this is an unexpected turn other then MIdoriya class 1A's not doing to hot even Bakugo is losing
Bakugou looked to see the one who took his headband off was Monoma from class 1B the same one he fought with at the USJ
Monoma: Your class is too small minded think bigger
Mina: He go us!
Mina shouted shocked
Bakugou: WHAT DID YOU SAY !? Come back here!"
Shouted Bakugo pissed
Monoma: Midnight said the obstacle course was just the first game and we figured they wouldn't cut that many of us right off the bat, would they?
Bakugou growled at his question "assuming they'd keep at least forty contestants for the next event, all we had to do was make sure we stayed in that group while we ran. From our spots in the lower ends we could fully observe the quirks our rivals had and judge their capabilities. Only a fool would obsess over winning the preliminary rounds wouldn't you agree?"
Bakugou: You planned this as a class
Monoma: It wasn't totally unanimous but I think it turned out well. It's better than chasing after a temporary front runner, like a horse with a carrot waving in his face
Bakugou was getting angry very angry
Monoma: Oh, you're kind of famous for being attacked by that sludge villain you'll have to tell me about it sometimes it must be strange always finding yourself in the role of the victim
Bakugo: Kirishima! We have a change in plans!!!
Bakugos team looked at Bakugo in terror as he radiated murderous intent " Before we take down Deku we're gonna kill every last one of these B list idiots "
Izuku: woah Setsuna did your class really have some kind of plan before the entire festival started
Setsuna: yeah we did though I didn't really agree with it so you have nothing to worry about
Izuku: oh I see so that means they're not just after me. That makes things a little easier for us
Izuku felt slight relief to have that pressure taken off him. But before he and his team could relax Setsuna stopped the team cause they came face to face with their worst opponents yet... Todoroki
Present Mic: And now we've reached the half way point of the games. As the cavalry battle enters second half it's anyones game class 1B has made an unexpected showing but who will win the 10,000,000 points in the end that's the question sports fans
Shoto: I'll be taking that now
he told Izuku who narrowed his eyes at Todoroki but looking over to his left he found Shoji charging them with his arms now open
Setsuna: I didn't think this would happen till later in the game he really seems to have it out for you huh Midoriya ?
Izuku: the game's only half way over we can't stop now
Todoroki: Now iida forward
Iida: Right !
Iida dashed towards Izukus team
Todoroki: Yaoyarozu be ready to protect us
Yaoyarozu: on it
she said creating two items simultaneously one being the blanket she used to deflect electricity from the USJ
Todoroki: Kaminari
Kaminari: Oh I know what I gotta do
Izuku noticed how other teams were coming and Todoroki was planning something then he saw electricity coming out of Kaminari
Izuku: oh no!
Kaminari: hope you made something strong Yaoyarozu!
Uraraka: ah Deku any idea how to block this ?!
the blanket covered Todoroki and his team" Indiscriminate shock 1.4 million volts!!" he shouted his attack as the electricity came at every team shocking them
Everyone: AAAAAH
Jiro: KAMINARI!!
Izuku thoughts: I've got no choice now
Rokuro: huh what do you mean
Izuku began sucking in the air and with it the electricity as if slurping a smoothie causing his team to stare at him in shock
Setsuna: What the heck !!!
Uraraka: What did you just do Dekiru!!!
Mei: Did you just eat electricity!!
Izuku: *chuckle* uhh hehe no
he looked away
Mei: Hahaha you're so weird I like you!
Setsuna: yeah nice going greeny !
Izuku chuckled nervously while Rokuro was staring at him with his jaw dropped but Todoroki didn't stop his approach using his quirk he froze the ground and with it the other teams taking their headbands in case of emergency.
Kendo: COME BACK!!!
she screamed angrily as Izukus team continued moving back to avoid Todoroki
Meanwhile with Bakugo:
Monoma was provoking Bakugou
Kaibara: Monoma don't provoking him man that's the kind of thing he would do
Monoma: Yeah I guess you're right it's not very heroic of me. Besides you know how these things work, heroes are always being hounded by moronic villains desperate for some kind of revenge
He said while smiling when he saw that Bakugou was losing control
Kirishima: Calm down Bakugo you gotta keep a level head or we'll never get our points back
But it was too late. Bakugo screamed in rage and created an explosion
Bakugou: Shut up! I've never been calmer can't you tell !!! Now, go after after them, Kirishima!"
He roared with a maniacal smile.
Kirishima: Please don't make us regret this
Bakugou's team ran after Monoma team's team
Bakugou: You think you're tough!!
Shouted Bakugou while Monoma just watched him approach them " DIE!" Bakugou shouted as he reached out making an explosion. But Monoma easily moved Bakugou's arm, shocking him. He turned around to try and attack again, but instead, he was met by his own explosion caused by Monoma.
Monoma: Ha wow I see why you like this quirk
He said before swiping his hand down touching Kirishima's hair
Bakugou: my power?!
He growled shaking his head to get rid of the explosions affects
Kirishima: Whoa! Weird that guy has your quirk!!
Bakugou: "DAMN IT!" - Bakugou tried to land one more explosion on Monoma but this time Monoma blocked Bakugou's attack using Kirishima's quirk.
Monoma: You both have impressive powers. But I think you'll agree mine is even better.
Kirishima: HUH?! WHAT?! Mine too
Bakugou: Bastard. His quirk he can copy other powers
Monoma: very good. So even an idiot can figure it out
Monoma's taunt made Bakugou angrier, and just before he could attack glue shot out between the two as the other class 1B teams arrived
Monoma:Nice one thanks for the backup, Banto.
Kaibara: Monoma if we keep those headbands we're good as long as no one gets near us we'll make our class proud!
he said as they ran away
Bakugou: STOP THEM!!
Kirishima: It's too stick crap I can't move
Kirishima's leg got stuck in the glue keeping them still
Mina: No prob, i'll melt through this stuff with mu quirk
Mina said holding her foot over Kirishima's using her quirk to melt the glue
Sero: Hurry! We're sitting at zero points now!
Bakugou watched as Monoma and the rest of his class got further away when Monoma turned to him and smiled
Monoma: Oh no hard feelings right?After all you provoked us what was it you said you'll kill us that's not very heroic
He said while Bakugou looked at him with a rage filled smile
Bakugou though: This isn't over yet. I'm still gonna be the indisputable champion..
Present Mic: Team Midoriya has no where left to run!!
Both the left and the right were covered in ice so Izukus team had no where left to go
Izuku: no matter what we can't let them take the headband !
