(This is my first book so I...
(Quick A/N: This will be fast, but in this chapter, it will mostly focus on Tori, since I will be making some changes, but in the next chapter, it will go back to normal.)

After the announcement from Midnight about the points of first place, Tori could still feel eyes on her, Midnight further explained the rules of cavalry battle.
"First years! These are the rules that you'll abide by. The game itself will last 15 minutes, individual point values will be added together to reach your team total. Everyone will know how much you're worth thanks to your headbands. Swipe as many headbands as you can to raise your team score. Stolen headbands must be worn from the neck up, so the more you steal, the harder it'll be to manage them. And another thing, you can keep playing until time's up!" explained Midnight.
"So, it's anyone's game then," said Momo.
"And since there are 43 contestants, there'll be 10 or 13 teams fighting on the field the entire time," added Sato.
"Sounds hard," commented Yuga, while staring at you.
"So, if you lose your headband at the beginning, you have more time to make up a plan," said Mina.
"I don't know Mina, maybe we should wait and see how the teams turn out before we start strategizing," said Asui.
"This is going to be rough; you may use your quirks as much as you like, but there are still rules. Make a team fall on purpose and I'll slap with you a red card, you'll be disqualified," said Midnight, then a timer of 15 minutes appeared on the screen, "Now, you've got 15 minutes to build your teams, I recommend you get started!"
Tori could only think, "Crap, everyone might I avoid me, but maybe..."
Meanwhile, outside the stadium, in the break room for the staff.

"The sports festival isn't really about seeing how prepared they at being heroes. It's more about simulating the competition they'll face if they go pro," said Death Arns as he smoked.
"What are you talking about?" asked Mt. Lady.
"We both know this country is overrun with agencies right now. To put on the table, you've got to be willing to step on top of other heroes. That was the whole point of the first round," explained Death Arms.
Mt. Lady says, as she covers her nose from the stench of the smoke, "That's such a sad way of looking at our jobs."
Kamui, annoyed as he reminisced the memory of how she took his spotlight, tells her, "Seriously, you've never had a problem stealing the spotlight."
Death Arms blows out another puff of smoke, says, "But on the other hand, even if you're battling each other for popularity, there are many cases where you have to work together."
"You're right. It's just like this cavalry battle. Every point you score is not just for you but for your teammates as well. Plus, you have to think about how quirks work together and who you're compatible with," said Mt. Lady.
