①⑥ The Big Race

It had been 2 weeks since the announcement of the sports festival was dropped. I had gained clearance from the school to do morning training and I had been sparring with Kirishima and Bakugo almost every day while doing workouts and runs in the afternoon. Me and Bakugo got our rematch, safe to say I got burnt. The wound on my arm from Shigaraki turned into a badass scar overtime as well.

Before we knew it, it was the morning of the festival. All the preparation I had been doing drastically changed my view of the event, I no longer wanted to purposely loose, I was in it to get as far as I possibly could.

I didn't workout that morning, in fact I actually walked to school with Hizashi for the first time in a while. Over the passed few weeks I had grown close with Kirishima, Midoriya, Mina, Uraraka, Kaminari, Jirou, Todoroki, Bakugo (believe it or not), and Hizashi especially. At this point I had been away from home for so long that he was really starting to feel like a father figure.

"You've got quite the advantage here kid." Hizashi said, breaking the silence between us as we walked down the sidewalk. I looked up at him. "You already know all the events for today, no one else has a clue."

I smiled slightly. "Yeah but.. I'm no fighter. I doubt I'll make it very far even if I make it past the cavalry battle." I felt a hand rest on top of my head. "With that attitude you won't! Lighten up, will you? Have some faith in yourself."

Hizashi lifted up his hand and I beamed with confidence. "You're right! I got this."

No I don't 😗

We beat the press to the school thankfully. Me and Hizashi parted ways and I headed the locker room to immediately change into my gym uniform. I met up with Mina and Hagakure while I was in there and the three of us headed to 1-A's waiting room together.

Upon entry, I spotted Midoriya and Uraraka from across the room. I went over to say hi but was quickly interrupted by Iida bursting in the room.

"Everyone! Get your game faces on! We're entering the arena soon!" He shouted, we all turned our attention towards him.

"Midoriya." I looked towards Todoroki as he pushed himself in front of me and into Midoriya's line of sight.

"Hey Todoroki.. What's up?" Midoriya was clearly nervous as Todoroki glared at him with an icy cold gaze. A few of us tuned into the conversation

"From an objective standpoint, I think it's fairly clear that I'm stronger then you," Todoroki started. "Uhm.. yeah." Midoriya agreed.

"However, you've got All Might in your corner, helping you out." Midoriya let out a small noise of surprise at Todoroki's realization. "I'm not here to pry about what's going on between you two. But know that I will beat you."

Midoriya's face twisted into one of fear. I could feel the nervousness radiating off of him in waves.

"Uh.. What's with all these declarations of war lately?" Kaminari joked. Kirishima stood up from his chair and approached Todoroki from behind. "Yeah, what's the big deal? Why are you pickin' a fight all of a sudden? And right before we get started..." He placed his hand on Todoroki's shoulder but he forced it off.

"We're not here to be eachothers friends. Don't forget that this isn't a team effort.." With that, the half and half boy turned around and walked off.

Oh boy will he change his mind later.

"Wait a second Todoroki." Midoriya started, making Todoroki stop in his tracks. "I don't know what's going through your head, or why you think you'd need to tell me that you'll beat me, and yeah of course your better then me. In fact, you probably have way more potential than anyone in the hero course. That's why you got in so easily."
