Kyoka looked down at the proceeds of the final battle between Bakugou and Midoriya. An occasional sigh would tickle her ears from the boy seated next to her. It was painfully obvious that Denki was still a little salty about losing the second round to Kirishima. Kyoka on the other hand, managed to survive up to the third round where she lost to Tokoyami. She absentmindedly began to caress the blonde's head. 

          "It's alright, Denks. Your quirk's just at a disadvantage over Kirishima's, it isn't your fault."

He met her eyes with a slightly dejected look on his face. "But I promised to at least compete with you. But that never happened. I broke my word," Denki huffed. Glancing at her worried face from the corner of his eye, he added. "Don't worry, I'm not depressed. It's just bad luck."

Nodding her head, Kyoka turned her head to see Midoriya fling Bakugou out the ring. It was no easy feat, as they both put up equal struggle and effort to take the other guy down. And it lasted a good 30 minutes at that...it might as well have been a new world record. At the very last moment (and much to Bakugou's displeasure), Midoriya hooked Bakugou by the leg and sent him flying off the stage.

The crowd cheered, since most of them were Deku fans and were still pretty bitter about last year's match between Bakugou and Uraraka. Kyoka flinched at the sight. Damn, Bakugou...when're you ever gonna stop making enemies? 

The siren sounded, signalling the end of the annual Sports Festival. The crowd presented a standing ovation as they did every year. Though UA may have given the usual stuff every year, they never fail to satisfy the spectators.

Ryukyu cleared her throat once the last of the fans had left the stadium. "As you students might've heard, UA is holding something different this year!" Excited whispers and gasps sounded among the fray of students when reminded of the possible treat. When the dragon heroine raised the mic to her lips again the bustle calmed. "UA will be holding a mini bazaar, complete with food stalls, games, entertainment and many more to reward you all for your spectacular performance this year! In addition, a special dance will be held later tonight. So I hope everyone here has that special someone you'd like to take...if not, then I suppose Ectoplasm wouldn't mind sparing a few of his clones to accompany you.."

Choking noises could be heard somewhere from the far corner of the vast area, giving Kyoka the idea that the little comment Ryukyu had given had not been discussed with the said teacher.

          "So, enjoy the rest of your day! You're free to go!" Ryukyu concluded, as she got called over by Ectoplasm sensei, most likely to be confronted about the statement she mentioned earlier.

Denki went from exhausted to extreme ecstasy in less than a second. Imagine all the things he would do with Kyoka for the rest of the day! But unfortunately, that ecstasy went as quickly as it came as his cousin appeared by his side to drag him to the food stalls. 

          "Nuh-uh. You're spending the day with you're big bro! You hardly hang out with me anymore after you got yourself a chick. It's Bro-Time. We're dragging Neito with us too, just like the old times," Keijirou excitedly cheered. "C'mon, Denks! We're visiting every single stall!"

          "All of them?! B-but...!"

          "No buts! This is what you get for abandoning your cousin! Bye, Kyoka-chan, I'll be borrowing your boy for the day~!"

          "K-Kyoka...! Save me...!!"

Kyoka simply waved, a sweet smile stretched across her face, to Denki's disappointment. "Bye, Denki, Hajime-san! Have a great time."

A faded "Mean Kyokaa!" could be heard from the distance as the two disappeared from sight.

Kyoka giggled to herself. "I guess I could finally spend some time with the girls!" she thought, satisfied with her decision.
