Flames roared and ice shattered as Bakugo and Todoroki clashed in the center of the stadium. Sweat dripped from their brows, determination etched into every line of their faces. The sheer intensity of their fight left the crowd breathless on the edge of their seats, every explosion and ice attack drawing gasps and cheers.
Bakugo's voice cut through the chaos, a mix of determination and excitement. "Come on, Half-n-Half Bastard! Fight me with everything you've got! Don't hold back!" His explosions crackled like fireworks, lighting up the arena.
Todoroki's eyes were cold, his expression focused. "What, you think you've got something to prove?" he shot back, his voice laced with sarcasm. "To Akuma-san, perhaps?"
Bakugo's eyes blazed with fury. "Shut up! This isn't about her!" He lunged forward, the ground beneath him scorched from his relentless blasts. "This is between you and me!"
Todoroki responded with a massive wave of ice, which Bakugo countered by destroying the ice with a flurry of quick explosions, the collision sending shockwaves through the stadium. He tunneled his way out of the mass of ice, using his explosions to blast through. As he emerged, he commended Todoroki for his powerful attacks. "Not bad, Icy-Hot! But your aim is pathetic!"
Todoroki ran at Bakugo, reaching out to grab him, but the blonde evaded with an explosion, grabbing onto Todoroki's left side. "Don't underestimate me!" he warned, throwing Todoroki toward the edge of the arena with an explosive blast.
Todoroki swiftly recovered by creating and surfing an ice wave, avoiding falling out of bounds. Bakugo dodged the ice and attacked again, but Todoroki grabbed him with his left arm and simply tossed him away, refusing to use his fire. Annoyed, Bakugo shouted, "Am I not worthy of your fire?!"
Bakugo's frustration was palpable. He angrily told Todoroki that he needed to stop holding back because Bakugo needed to beat him at full power to prove he was the strongest student at the festival. "Why do you even fight if you're not trying to win?" he demanded.
Bakugo's fingers began aching as his limit neared, but still he raged on. The fact that Todoroki wasn't taking it seriously was beginning to seriously tick him off. Here he was, putting his all into gaining the opportunity to have you by his side, and here this bastard was, jeopardizing it with a half-assed performance. Yet, he used his fire for Deku.
Todoroki silently gazed at Bakugo—as if apologizing—until Midoriya's voice rang out from the stands. "Todoroki-kun! Don't hold back! Use your fire!"
Impassioned by Midoriya's encouragement, Todoroki ignited his flames, the heat radiating through the stadium. Bakugo took to the sky, using his explosions to propel himself into a circular motion, encasing himself in a twister-like wind.
