Roaring Sports Festival

┕━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┙

'The UA Sports Festival.'

'One chance a year. Three chances in a lifetime.'

⋆✩⋆

"This Sports Festival. It's something that the Pros — no. The entire country will be watching very closely. I want you to think of this Sports Festival as your debut."

'I have to prove myself.'

⋆✩⋆

"But All Might, that's your catchphrase." Izuku insisted.

"Besides.. What can I do?" Izuku asked.

"You know how the Sports Festival is set up, right?" All Might questioned Izuku.

"Well, yeah. Of course." Izuku said as he watched All Might walk to the couch to sit down.

"Students are separated by class year. And then the Support Business, General Studies and Hero Course are all fighting against each other in a bunch of liminary trials. Whoever makes it to the initial games, face off in the final. It's basically a big round rob in tournament." Izuku explained the Sports Festivals.

"Right! Meaning you'll have plenty of opportunities to sell yourself." All Might said.

'I don't really want to sell myself out... But I do have to show myself worthy to get an internship.' I was thinking.

"I guess..." Izuku said. Suddenly, All Might fell with the whole couch backwards because of what Izuku said.

"I'M SORRY! I MEAN- WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT ALL MIGHT!" Izuku waved with his hands frantically.

"Calm down." I said as I putted a hand on his shoulder to make him stop.

"But, honestly.. It's kind of hard to get excited about this after everything that just happened at the USJ.

Plus, I've already got the world's greatest hero teaching me, so the Festival probably isn't my only hope of getting scouted by an agency.

And besides, I don't know that I can stand out right now, considering I did so horribly on the Fitness Test and can't control One for All very well." Izuku muttered.

"Man, nobody is better at word vomit than you, kid." All Might said as blood began to spit out again.

"All Might, there's two of us." I laughed.

"Oh, hey. Are you okay?" Izuku asked All Might.

"Some heroes aim for the top, others happily settle. The difference between those two mindsets have a big impact on how far you go in the real world." All Might explained.

"See, Zuzuchan? That's why you have to strive for the best." I agreed with what All Might said.

"You wanted to be like All Might, right?" I asked him.
