Mirror nodded, "Musutafu? The sports festival is going on in about a week. We could probably score some tickets with my connections."

Magma shrugged, "If I don't use my quirk I'll be fine."

Mirror bit her nail, "I wear a mask but I don't doubt people would be able to recognize my voice.", she sighed.

Myo rolled his eyes, "Just wear some sunglasses."

Mirror's eyes brightened, "Right! You can be intelligent sometimes, Myo-kun." She smirked, "I'll just wear something less skin tight and suddenly no one will know it's me!"

Their party was a bit of an odd bunch. Two white haired twins clearly not related to either of the young adults travelling with them, a woman with the fiercest sunglasses known to mankind and a black dress that made it look like she was off to a fancy restaurant, and a 23-year old man wearing cargo shorts, a striped t-shirt, and a white denim jacket. Magma was obviously a foreigner, which brought even more attention to their already out of place group. Mya had even suggested code names to make it feel even more like a covert operation, Magma was 'Alex', the most generic American name she could think of. Mirror was 'Scarlette', it just fit, according to Mya. Myo was 'Nora', he had no clue where she got that one from. And Mya herself was 'Kora'.

"I'm starting to think this wasn't the most intelligent of ideas.", Magma, or Alex, commented.

"No.", Scarlette agreed, "Perhaps it wasn't. It's too late now though."

Once they made it to the arena-like building the U.A. Sports Festival was taking place, they took their seats and they finally weren't the center of attention. In Mya's opinion, all of the competitions were some of the most 'thrilling things I've ever seen!'. In Myo's opinion, 'It was interesting.', was all he had said the entire time they were there. This time, the third years went first. The first competition was hide and seek, which was an interesting one. There was one seeker, and whoever the seeker found would seek with them. In the end, the last 41 one people hiding and the seeker moved on to the next competition.

The second competition was the entrance exam repeated, except if you defeated a person you got 5 points. In the end, only the top 8 moved on to the final challenge, the 1 on 1 battles.

The first battle was between a girl with hair that she could turn into blades, and a kid who could manipulate water. They both had similar tactics, being mid-ranged fighters. The water kid made water blades, and the hair girl made hair blades. In the end, the hair girl won.

The second battle was a girl who could shapeshift and a boy who could knock people out with physical contact. In the end, the girl won as she kept avoiding his touch by turning into air.

The third battle was not a close match, being between a boy with an extendable tongue and a boy with arms that could turn into any weapon. The tongue boy just picked the weapon dude up and threw him out of bounds.

The fourth battle had a kid who could manipulate bandages and a boy with a shark head. The bandage kid wrapped the man up and threw him out of bounds. Very similar quirk to tongue dude. Though, Myo did notice that the bandage kid didn't have any lower arms for some reason. The kid made false bandage hands, which he thought was cool.

The first semi-final match, between blade hair girl and shapeshifter, was pretty interesting. The shapeshifter continued the tactic of turning into air, making blade girl's attacks basically ineffective. The shapeshifter had approached the blade girl without her knowing and knocked her out of bounds with a really large leg. Her quirk was a bit gruesome to watch in person, in Myo's opinion.

The second semi-final match was extendable tongue guy and bandage kid. Unfortunately for tongue guy, despite their similar quirks, they were still different. The bandage kid turned their bandages into a giant hammer and smacked the man clean out of bounds. It was pretty cool.

The final match was what Myo was really excited for. It was always the most intense match, and thus the most riveting. Shapeshifter and bandage kid were #1 and #2, but the fight was to show who the true #1 was. Of course, the first challenge was a bit cheap as it was mostly chance, but the shapeshifter and bandage kid obviously had quirks good for it as well.

Bandage kid was the first to strike, always a +1 in Myo's opinion of a person, their bandages extending to grab the shapeshifter to no avail. Once again, she had turned into air. What Shapeshifter did not account for was bandage kid making a literal wall of bandages around the areas she was most likely in, squeezing them until they caught something. It worked, bandage kid throwing the shapeshifter out of bounds before she had the chance to shift out, and won.

In #3, there was Blade Girl, #2 was Shapeshifter, and. #1 was Bandage Kid.

"Woahhh!", Mya had exclaimed, "That was crazy! I totally expected the blade haired girl to win!", she grinned, lamenting her mistake.

Myo shrugged, "Bandage kid was smart."

"Hmmm?", she leaned closer, "How so?"

Myo sighed, shutting his mouth tightly.

She glared, huffing. "You'll have to tell me when we're home."

He nodded, "Sure."

Mya had gone off to the bathroom when she was stopped by Endeavor, the #2 pro hero. She immediately got a bit nervous being in front of someone so high up in the rankings on the opposite side. She grinned her usual grin, "Hello there, is there something you need?", she asked.

The man scoffed, "I thought you were a U.A. student. I suppose I was wrong."

Mya furrowed her brows, she wasn't wearing anything remotely similar to the uniform so she was confused. "Mm... I'm not, Sir. Though, I have been considering it.", she smiled.

The esteemed man raised a brow before walking off.

'How weird.', she thought.

Myo yawned, thankful he had gotten a seat on the train this time. Apparently, travelling between cities was tiring. Myo found himself staring out the window, seeing the land zoom by in a blur.

"It's pretty, isn't it?", Mya whispered into his ears. She giggled when she noticed the blush creeping up on her brother's cheeks. He may outwardly appear stoic, but his energy was always a bundle of emotions. It took Mya a long time to be able to tell which one he was actually feeling. Mya knew that her brother thought a lot, and would sometimes even prefer to be more vocal, but never was. It was due to a childhood bully in their small rundown town, Jena. At the time, Myo was a bit of a blabber mouth. He spoke every thought that went through his brain, every thought was also vocal. He was quiet by nature, never interacting with any of their classmates, but spoke quite a bit. Jena had been sitting near them that day, and she was getting increasingly irritated at her brother's incessant muttering. "Shut up!", she had screeched. "Your stupid ugly voice is annoying!". It shocked Mya, Myo, and the entirety of the quiet classroom. "Everything you say is stupid idiot garbage!", she had used every negative word in her small dictionary at the time to insult him, which Mya found horrendous.

After that, Myo was completely silent until they were 10, when he began talking to Mya. He grew more comfortable talking with her, but never anyone else. If he did speak to someone, such as Magma, it was brief sentences, even if he had more to say. His energy was incredibly bright and was constantly shifting, which exposed most of his true soft nature. Outwardly, he was a very stone faced boy who didn't care. Inside, he was a boy who cared about everything. Every time he made eye contact with someone, his mind buzzed with various observations that Mya couldn't quite translate from his energy. They were never negative, simply odd questions or theories. The few times she did hear what his mind thought about someone, it was generally along the lines of, 'That person really likes whales, I just know it.', or 'Does that person enjoy listening to Kema too?'. Mya, personally, thought it was adorable and would never dare ruin her brother's well earned stoic image by informing someone of his inner thoughts. She enjoyed keeping them all to herself.
