"Now let's take a look at the scores! In first place, Team Mitsuko! Second, Team Todoroki, third Team Bakugo, fourth Team Shinso, fifth Team Midoriya! These five teams will be advancing on to the next round after the lunch break!' Mic screamed.
'Akio?'
'Yeh.'
'Can I sleep round yours tonight?'
'Sure, why?'
'Coz I can't have a lie in when Hizashi's up at 6 yelling at his radio station... Like seriously, who listens to that?' Akio stifled a laugh, but Mitsuko glared at him.
'This is no laughing matter- Every single day at my house is the same- Waking up to Mr Present Mic's sweet voice. At six-fucking-AM.'
'...Sure, whatever as long as you don't wake Shōta, he sleeps in 'till about 3PM, any time before and he gets majority pissed. By the way, NEVER wake him up, unless he's about to die.'
'What are we doing, still standing on the stadium?'
'Uhhh, I don't know, let's make a quick escape.' They walked out of the open area, back into where the contestants gathered, and up into the main spectating area. Up there was a canteen, and they walked past it, into the commentators box. There, in the middle of the room, lay our lord all mighty (No pun intended) EraserFace himself.
'He's sleeping...'
'No shit Sherlock.'
'Why are we here?'
'I need money for food.'
'But he's sleeping...'
[INSERT FACEPALM HERE]
'How are you gonna get money if he's sleeping?'
'Skill, speed and precision.'
Akio walked up to his brother, and poked him hard in the side.
'Give me moneyyyyyyyy,' He whined.
'Leave me alone.' He grunted, handing Akio a wad of cash. A wicked grin split his face in half as he exited the room.
'The best thing is, he won't remember this moment, and'll think it got nicked or something,' he laughed.
'Lucky- I got a packed lunch.' Mitsuko grumbled.
'Shōta would never bother making me one, but at least you don't have to queue.'
In front of them lay many hungry spectators, in need of some feeding.
'Uuuughhhhhhh...' Akio groaned.

One lifetime later

'That was some good eats- I heard there's some proper drama going on in the creepy dark alleyway with Todoroki and Midoriya.'

'Let's go!'

Transition to dark alleyway

*Izuku exits, Shoto is left alone*

'Hiiiiiii Shotooooooo!' Akio called. The heterochromatic boy turned to look at the group.
'Just been spilling your secrets?' Mitsuko asked.
'How did you-?'
'You have that sorta look about you.' Akio replied.
'Ah well, it's good to let it all out!' Mitsuko grinned.
'Yeah, don't bottle up those emotions!'
'And tell someone if something with Endeavor happens!'
'How do you know anything about my father?' Shoto asked sharply. Mitsuko and Akio had identical smirks.
'Well...'
Their smiles grew wider.
'We were in the meeting discussing the potential that you could be being abused by Endeavor.' Akio laughed.
'It was the hilarious-'
'Midnight was saying all sorts of stuff-'
'Saw Endeavor's baby pictures-'
'And the funniest thing was,' they said in synchronisation, 'They had absolutely no evidence at all.' An unexpected smile split Todoroki's emotionless demeanour in half.
'Why wasn't I invited?' He asked with a small laugh.
'Ah yes...'
'It waaas supposed to be top secret...'
'So please don't tell anyone?'
He sighed disappointedly.
'Fine.'
'Let's prank call Endeavor when we get home.' Akio whispered to Mitsuko.
'I hope you don't mind your house getting burnt down Shoto!' Mitsuko called.
'1000 Yen if you can get him to destroy the microwave.' He replied. They all sniggered.
'You're on.'
