The next event was a cavalry battle, though it wasn't much of a challenge. Izuku made his team of Itsuka, Hatsume, and Tokoyami go underground using his Alchemy. Due to winning first place in the obstacle race, he was given a ten million point head band, meaning his team won easily. It was revealed that the next event would be a tournament. Now, Izuku was being led down a hallway by Todoroki.

Izuku: "Why did you want me here? If we don't hurry then we won't be able to eat before the tournament.

Not answering Izuku's question, Todoroki began to speak.

Todoroki: "Do you know of quirk marriages?"

Izuku nodded.

Izuku: "Yeah, I do. They used to happen all the time to make children with strong quirks. Why?"

A few seconds of silence went by when Izuku realized what was going on.

Izuku: "You're a product of one, aren't you?"

Todoroki nodded.

Todoroki: "My father, who has a powerful fire quirk, forced my mother, who has an even more powerful ice quirk, to marry him. Me and my siblings are the aftermath, and I am the success. I am only using my ice to prove that I don't need his power. But that isn't why I called you back here."

Izuku: "Then what is?"

Todoroki: "Just over a year ago, the bastard started acting strange. Before, his rage was burning and directed at me for being 'stubborn' as he called it. Now, it's cold and focused at just about anyone he sees. There are times he becomes his old self, but those moments are fleeting. This also appeared on his hand when the change happened. Do you know anything?"

Todoroki pulled out a photo and showed it to Izuku, who's eyes went wide. It was a picture of Endeavor, just like Izuku had always seen him, only now something was different. On the back of his right hand, was a tattoo.

Todoroki: "By your reaction, you know something about this

Todoroki: "By your reaction, you know something about this."

Izuku looked around before snatching it.

Todoroki: "Hey!"

Izuku: "Is he here?"

The tone of his voice made Todoroki stop.

Todoroki: "Yes. Why?"

Izuku: "Dammit. Okay, after the Sports Festival I need you tonmake your way to this address."

He hand Todoroki a piece of paper with his address on it.

Izuku: "Me, Bakugo, and Kendo will be there as well. Do not tell anyone, okay?"

Todoroki: "What's going on?"

Izuku: "You just pulled yourself into something way bigger than either of us. Now we need to go."

They began walking away.

Izuku stepped onto a large concrete pad as a student with purple hair did as well.

Present Mic: "FOR OUR FIRST MATCH WE HAVE THE MASTER OF MATTER, IZUKU MIDORIYA! AND ON THE OTHERSIDE, THE ONE WHO'S BEEN SNEAKING UP THE LADDER, HITOSHI SHINSO!"

Midnight: "Are you two ready?"

They both gave a nod to the woman. She raised her hand.

Midnight: "Alright! Start!"

She chopped downwards to mark the start of the match.

Shinso: "So, how's the monkey's pride?"

Izuku stayed silent.

Shinso: "What'd he say about me? What lies did he tell? I bet that damned ape told you just how vile I am!"

Izuku remained silent and charged forward. Getting desperate, Shinso yelled one last thing.

Shinso: *Yelling* "Or that girl! Who would want to date some freak with big hands!"

Izuku jumped and wound back a punch.

Izuku: *Yelling* "Kendo is not a frea-"

His mind went numb. His vision looked like a windshield in a very bad storm. His body, was not his own. This feeling lasted only a second before his full weight fell onto Shinso, jolting his mind back into the driver's seat. Thinking quickly, Izuku rolled off of Shinso, stood up, clapped his hands, and used the concrete to push Shinso out of bounds.

Midnight: "Shinso is out of bounds. Midoriya wins!"

The crowd cheered and Izuku walked over to Shinso to help him up. Shinso smacked Izuku's outstretched hand.

Shinso: "I don't need your help."

He stood on his own.

Shinso: "You were just born with a great quirk, while I'm stuck with my villainous Brain Wash."

Izuku chuckled.

Izuku: "That doesn't sound villainous at all. That would be an amazing quirk for a hero. You know the tired sounding announcer?"

Shinso nodded.

Izuku: "Go talk to him, he'll get you on the right track, I promise."

With that said, Izuku walked back to his class' seating area.
