Stopwatch (Momo x Male Reader) (Fluff)

Chapter 36 - Creati

*3rd person POV*

Gentle rebounds off the circle of elasticated air and turns around, straight faced as he lands cleanly, standing bolt upright and eyeing his opponent.

Although he doesn't know it, every second he wastes he has a higher chance of losing. Creati's brain thinks back to every news report, every person she's met, all the classmates at her school. Who's quirks can she use?

It's outside - gas grenades will disperse quickly : Midnight is difficult.

Elastic air shields - tranquilisers
could be blocked : snipe is also hard.

Stuns grenades are still a yes. Ice too. Explosion if she can handle the recoil. Tape if she can cut it quick enough. Water and acid if she can get enough range.

And even with all of that, she can only choose a number before she runs out of lipid content in her body.

"I see you are a steady combatant." Gentle says. "But I have to do this."

"You can't!" The aspiring hero shouts. "I'll have security on the way!"

"Then call them. Let them come." Gentle says. "La Brava listened in on the call that went out across all the teachers of UA."

Momo had been told about the consequences of a security alert by Y/N. She knew that if there was even a false alarm, the festival would be shut down effective immediately.
And Eri wouldn't see the performance.

She couldn't allow it to happen.

"Any instance of any possible danger to children inside the school, will result instantaneous cancellation of the event." Gentle recites.

Creati grits her teeth in response.

"If you want to continue, you'll need your friend." Momo says.

Gentle says nothing.

"Come and get her."

Momo crouches down in a defensive stance, creating a shield in front of her. She had thought of many scenarios, many possibilities of attack. The one she hadn't thought of is perhaps the one she is most familiar with.

Gentle does (most of) a backflip, and rebounds off his own air-trampoline, 90 degrees before hitting the floor, and launches towards Momo - or rather - La Brava.

He rotates in the air as he flies perpendicular to the ground, often making his back face the side so that he may hit another small air trampoline, as he zigzags around to Momo's right.. He's certainly fast, not Stopwatch fast, but he is rapid.

Creati pivots 90 degrees, and raises her free hand, while shielding herself with the other, still not knowing the capabilities of his quirk. Her hand lets loose a barrage of ice. After two seconds of making an ever-increasing cone of solid cold, she pulls back her hand, shaking it to relieve the slight sting from the sudden chill. She raises the shield in front of her and awaits an attack from either side of the strobile formation of ice.

The shield takes a massive hit from the middle, unexpected from Momo's point of view. Gentle had roundhouse-kicked the middle of the ice, using his elasticating quirk in the process, which moved the ice backwards like a battering ram to Momo's defence.

Her arms recoil above her head and she stumbles back, her entire front exposed.

Gentle does not miss his opportunity, flying forwards once again by changing the elasticity of some air, sinking into it, and then increasing the spring tension, pushing him out like a bullet.

Foot extended, he lands a solid hit to Creati's midriff. She and Gentle land away from each other following the collision, one rolling into a straight position with formal posture, while the other staggers to one knee.
