        "And now, we've reached the halfway point of the game! As the cavalry battle enters its second half, it's anyone's game! Class 1-B has made an unexpected showing, but who will wear the ten million points in the end? That's the real question, sport fans!" Present Mic shouts, entertaining the fans.

        "Keep an eye out for any teams who want to try to steal our headband!" I demand of Shinso as I tug on the headbands that are all uncomfortably wrapped around my neck and are limiting its movement. "With the amount of points we've built up, we should be able to make it to the next round, but we can't afford lose any of them!"

        "Got it!" Shinso says as he does just that. 

        I look over to see that Izukun's team is face to face with Todoroki's team and are fixing to battle when I hear a shout coming from Mineta.

        "Shoji! Full‐on attack mode! We'll use all our powers to steal the points from those two teams!" Mineta shouts as Shoji opens up the cocoon he made for Mineta and Tsu and runs full force toward Izukun's and Todoroki's teams. Though I soon notice that it isn't just Team Mineta chasing after them, but Team Hagakure and least two teams from Class-1B are as well.

        "Okay, it appears that many of the stronger teams are after Izukun while Kacchan's team and the blondie's team from Class 1-B are after each other, so we may be running through the next few minutes without another fight," I say.

        "Don't put your guard down just yet, Akari," Shinso tells me.

        "Oh, I'm not," I respond as I continue to watch and begin to use my mind reading. Oh no... "Shinso, I'm going to have to use telekinesis on us again! So don't move!" I shout.

        "Ah ok—whoa!" He gasps

        "Indiscriminate Shock. 1.3 million volts!" I hear Kaminari shout. I continue to keep us off the ground and far off away from his electricity so we don't get shocked like the others.

        "Come on, bastard, quit using your Quirk now!" I mumble under my breath as I struggle to keep all of us in our positions as still as possible. "Finally!" I exclaim and bring us back down. I look back up just enough see the insulated blanket that I assume Yaoyorozu made come off and Todoroki use his ice Quirk on the teams nearby.

      "Will you look at that! He's stopped all those teams cold in their tracks!" Present Mic shouts.

        "But only after Kaminari had immobilized the students using his electricity. In the obstacle course, he was surprised by how many people avoided his attack. He's adapting his strategy," Mr. Aizawa adds.

        "Nice commentary!" Present Mic responds.

        "I might as well take these," I hear Todoroki shout, and I see he had grabbed a couple headbands.

        "Come back!" A orange-haired girl from Class 1-B shouts.

        As I continue to catch my breath, I begin to use my mind reading Quirk to assess to situation as I watch Team Todoroki continue to make his way to Izukun's team. Oh, I get it, I think to myself as I read their minds, Tokoyami's weakness is light, so Kaminari's electricity is their true problem as it causes too much light. All they can do right now it bluff.
