Izuki vs Shinso

Right before the match begins-Izuki POV

Saying this now, I am not the best with fight scenes, so sorry ahead of time if the fights in these chapters are boring or too quick or anything like that.

I walk up to the arena as Present Mic introduces me "The first contestant of this match is Izuki Midoriya of class 1-A! She can be as cold as ice or the nicest person you'll ever meet, it all depends on how you treat her" 'Way to make me sound like an emotional mess, though it's not wrong, and I am kind of a emotional mess' I roll my eyes and stop at the edge of the area, and watch Shinso walk up on his side "And the other contestant is the General Course's Hitoshi Shinso! Is he calm or tired, who knows!" I bite the inside of my cheek to not chuckle, knowing that it would be rude, but seeing how Shinso himself looks like he's trying not to laugh, I give him a small smile.

"Before we begin, do either of you have something you'd like to say to the other? Maybe a bit of back and forth before the first match?" "Yeah actually, Shinso, when I told you ideas for your team in the last round, try talking to them next time, not using your quirk on them" He chuckles and rubs the back of his head "You know how I am Izuki, I suck at talking to people" "True. Knowing that your quirk won't do much on me since I know what it is, hand to hand combat? No quirks?" "Sure, I'm down for that" "Alright you two, I take it no quirks will be used in this fight?" "Nope" I shake my head as he talks, "I know what his quirk is, so I can avoid it, and so it wouldn't really be fair if I went all out" 'Not to mention if I went all out... I could majorly hurt someone' "Alright, both of you ready?" I nod and Shinso gives a quick thumbs up.

3rd person

"Begin!" Izuki and Shinso run at the other and Shinso throws a punch which Izuki uses to be able to throw him off balance and onto the ground, he stands up catching his breathe since the wind got knocked out of him as he hit the ground. "Come on Shinso, I know you have more in ya, show me how much progress you've made" "You've had more experience than me with fighting, and you know it" "True, but I believe in you," She shifts her footing to be more secure, and braces for him to attack, "Don't hold back just because we're friends" Shinso exhales "Alright"

He runs at her and gets a hold on her arm and attempts to do the same she just did to him, and he is unable to even make her lose her footing.

With the rest of the class

"This is going to be an interesting fight, while yes Shinso has been training, Zuki is just in general not only stronger flat out but has more experience fighting" "Show some faith in her friend Jack, but yeah, you're right" Evelyn agrees with what her friend said, but is a bit more interested in what Shinso's quirk is, and what Izuki meant by it won't work on her since she knows what it is, does it need the person to talk to him? She also said that he used his quirk on people to get his team put together last round, so he can control others, is that it? 'He can control people, but they have to talk to him with his quirk active, is that how she knows it won't work on her? Because she knows how it works? How do they even know each other?' "Hey Jack? How do they even know each other?" "Oh, they met the day before Zuki joined 1-A" "Ah, alright"

"Hey, Evelyn" "What's up Kirishima?" "Any plan on how you're going to beat Bakubro?" "Kinda, still working on it. What about you?" "From what I've seen, me and Tetsutetsu have similar quirks, so I'm honestly just hoping I outlast him" Evelyn laughs a bit "That's true, I have faith in you" "Thanks!"

Back to the fight

Shinso is starting to struggle a bit, and Izuki can tell, he's taking longer to get back up and ready each time. 'I have to at least make past this match, I can't lose this close to the end' Shinso stands back up and puts his hands back up ready to block her next attack, he's started to notice a pattern with her, she doesn't like to hit full force. He can tell she's holding back, not sure why, and he's starting to get annoyed by it. "Shinso is back up people! Will he be able to come back and win? Midoriya doesn't even look tired!" Shinso mumbles to himself after Mic says that "He's not wrong... I'm exhausted and she looks like she's ready to run a mile" Izuki backs off slightly and mentally scans Shinso, 'Tired, but not giving up. Looks like he's still hurting from when I kicked him. He seems annoyed by something, is he annoyed at himself?' "I can tell you aren't giving your all, why?" "I don't like fighting my friends, simple as that" "Well too bad, because you'll have to today" He charges at her and goes to knock her off her feet.
