"Be on my team!"

"No, mine, I have more points!"

So many people called out to me. People I didn't even know. They all wanted me on their team. People were crowding around me. 

My eyes drifted over to where the zodiacs were sitting. Taurus was shaking his head at me, telling me not to do it.

I look around to see who everyone is crowding around. Todoroki and Bakugo. Those two are the ones who everyone wants to team up with. Along with me. Not Midoriya, no one wants to be stuck on the team everyone's going to be targeting.

I sighed and look between my two options. Todoroki is already gathering a team so he's out of the question. That leaves Bakugo. 

Ignoring the voice in my head that screams not to go over to him I stiffly march over to him. "Can I be on your team?" I asked him, looking over who he already has on his team, Sero and Kirishima.

"Fine." He grumbled, and I gave him a wide grin.

"All right, now that all the teams are set up, let's start!" Midnight yelled.

"I see some interesting pairings here," Aizawa-Sensei remarked, from his place in the commentator's box.

"Begin!" Midnight announced, and we set off. Bakugo charged straight for Midoriya's team. Midoriya's team was made of Uraraka, Tokoyami, and a pink-haired girl from the support course, from the looks of it.

They evaded everything. And then a team from 1-B came over. Tried to steal Bakugo's headband. I winced, feeling bad for them. Except when the leader of the other team needed to block from one of Bakugo's explosions, his skin hardened. Like...Kirishima's quirk. The two were too similar, I get the other guy-Tetsutetsu-having an iron quirk, but Kirishima and this kid's quirk is the same. Unless...

I chanced a glance at Kirishima. He had on a shell-shocked expression. Then the other team ran off, team Monoma. "Wait. Before we get the ten million we need to kill these extra's." Bakugo snarled.

We charged towards Team Monoma, and Bakugo grabbed-no snatched all their headbands and then added in an extra explosion for intimidation and we went after the ten million. Except there was one problem.

Team Todoroki and Team Midoriya had a barrier of ice around them, and Bakugo had no idea where the ten million was. He looked between the two teams. "Which one of you has the ten million?" Bakugo asked.

Team Midoriya charged at Todoroki, and Bakugo deduced that Todoroki had the ten million, and we ran for the ten million. Except Midoriya got there first.

Midoriya grabbed the headband at the very top of Todoroki's head, and I saw dark shadow also grab something, probably just an extra, to get Team Todoroki out of the top four, it didn't work, obviously.

Then the pink-haired girl said something to Midoriya, and Midoriya looked at the headband and gasped. "You really think we would be so foolish as to keep the headband at the top of his head? We mixed up the headbands." Momo informed them, with a triumphant smile.

I smirked. At least Midoriya doesn't have the ten million. Bakugo used his explosions to propel himself off of our arms, in a last attempt to get the ten million. "End!" Midnight yells, and this time Sero lets Bakugo fall flat on the ground. I didn't try to stifle my laugh.

We get a break before the last event, and I go to lunch. I'm with the rest of the girls of 1-A, along with the girls of the zodiac signs. Taurus even stays with us for a bit, but then goes off with the boys.

Then Mineta and Kaminari come up to us. "Hey Momo, as assistant class rep you probably already know but the girls are going to have a cheer battle," Mineta said. My eyes narrow at him suspiciously.

"Why should we believe you?" I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Aizawa-Sensei said so. If you don't believe me you can go ask but he'll probably get mad about you guys bothering him." Kaminari nods along with every word. If it was just Mineta I would go straight to our homeroom teacher to get clarification with him, but Kaminari's with Mineta, so everything should be fine. I trust Kaminari.

"Very well then, girls I'll start creating. But before that, I'll need your measurements!" Momo exclaimed, and turned to us, an excited smile on her face.


"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Leo yelled in anger. Instead of throwing the orange pom-pom's on the ground as I did, she used her quirk to burn them.

"Whoa, Class 1-A is going full fan service!" Present Mic joked.

That joke set me off. I glared at the two perverts. Especially to Kaminari. I trusted him and this is how he repays me?! Sagittarius copied Leo's actions and burned the pom-pom's to a crisp.

"How about we all get together and commit a double-homicide?" I suggested and looked up to find Pisces, Jirou, Cancer, Sagittarius, and Leo nodding.

"Scorpio, calm down, you can't commit a double-homicide because they tricked you." Cap reasoned, always the peace-maker.

"It would've been fine if it weren't on naTIONAL TELEVISION!" Leo shrieked.

"She's right. I might've left it alone if it had been just them who saw, but we're going to be all over television." Sagittarius agreed.

"Yeah, who knows what types of perverts watch the sports festival." Pisces chimed in.

Cap rubbed her temples in frustration. "You can always change back, and demand that they cut that part out." Cap reasoned.

"Those pervert's need to learn their lesson. If we just take the blows, they'll think they can do it again, and there is no way I'm getting embarrassed like this again." Sagittarius said, and she made a good point.

I nodded in agreement, and we started formulating our plan.
