A Hollow's Rencarnation: An Izuku Yagi Story

十九: Rip Off Our Skin

(Me, updating my story after several months!? That's crazy! But anyway, this chapter is longer than the last one! Yay! I've been busy playing HSR waiting for a Blade rerun, so I keep forgetting to write this shit. My winter break ends literally ends in two fucking days and I don't wanna go back to have all three of my AP classes in one day. Pray for my survival! Today's song is Pardon Me, But I Have To Go Now by Hanabie! Really love their music! Have a good day/night and enjoy!)

Aizawa walked down the hallways of U.A, rubbing his temple furiously while muttering, "Ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous. This is why I'm not having kids." Just minutes ago, All Might had explained his 'situation' with Zangetsu, with how that the albino is his son and how shitty he had treated him.

"I really should bring it up to Nezu, but I trust Zangetsu knows how to deal with this," the underground hero sighed, brushing his hair back with his hand. Looking around, he was very close to his classroom, the doors going from 1-D to 1-C until he approached 1-A.

Opening the door, his students sat in their seats, the one which a certain albino teenager would sit being the only empty one among the 20 seats. All of their eyes were on him as he walked over to the podium in front of the class. "As you might have heard, the Sports Festival is coming soon. During the Sports Festival, not just civilians will be watching, but heroes as well. Some of those heroes will be watching for any students who impress them and will offer them an internship at their agency. You all can be one of those students, and I hope you all get internships and try your best during the Festival. It will take place in one week, so prepare yourselves."

Most of the students' faces lit up at the news, excited at the idea that heroes would be watching to see if they wanted to train them. Others felt worried about their abilities, and how pro heroes would compare them to the more offensive quirks of their classmates. But throughout the room, everyone couldn't wait to participate in the Sports Festival.

"Sir," Ida stood up, arms to his sides. "Just to be sure, are the events during the Sports Festival ensured to be safe for all the students?"

All the students wait for any answer, but all they get is a wide smile. "Sure, if that's what you want to believe."

"Welcome everyone to this year's Sports Festival!" Midnight announced through the microphone in her hand, standing on the center platform Cementoss made of the arena. Thousands of crowd members in the stand of the arena shouted with pure excitement, some excited for the actual event. Others.... Well, they just wanted to see Midnight in person considering her hero persona and attire. "Who's excited for this year's events!?"

The cheers of the crowd got even louder, and the students in front of her waiting for the game to start could swear they heard a faint 'Please step on me Ms. Midnight!' from the crowd but decided to ignore it. Midnight meanwhile, didn't seem to hear it and just went on with announcing the Sports Festival events.

"This year, we are going to have an obstacle race around the stadium, then the first 42 students will compete in a cavalry battle in teams of four. The top four teams of the calvary with the most points will face each other in 1-on-1 battles! Now, who's ready for the games to begin!"

『（╹◡╹）』

Zangetsu watched the first two events next to Midnight, waiting for the time of the 1-on-1 battles. He wasn't disappointed that he couldn't participate in the first two games, watching the games made him bored, and being in such boring activities wouldn't be worth his time. Now, he stands in the middle of the stadium with his fellow classmate, Ida Tenya.

"Let us have a good and fair battle Zangetsu," the blue haired male announced with a serious expression, adjusting his glasses as his leg engines revved up.

Before long, Ida dashed at his classmate with great speed, the engines of his legs seemingly working overtime in an attempt of going fast enough for Zangetsu to not catch or attack him. Unfortunately, the trick did not work.

The albino extended out his hand, slamming it into the blue-haired boy's stomach. People around the stadium audibly winced as Ida clutched at his stomach a keeled over, a small amount of blood drooling from his mouth from the speed of the impact with Zangetsu's hand.

Said teen walked over to the crouching Ida, glaring down at him with a wide smile. "You really thought that was enough to beat me? Don't make me fucking laugh!" And with a quick kick, the blue-haired speedster was knocked unconscious.
