All Might and the Nomu were moving so fast, their movements were a blur. The pressure made the wind of a typhoon, creating some holes in the domes.

Eventually, after 300 hits, what the villains referred to as a Nomu fell apart. The male with tens of hands and the warp quirk man targeted the students in response. They were vulnerable,  All Might was too exhausted to help. But just as the male's hands reached Tsuyu's face, a bullet hit it. Then another, and another.

The warp man shielded him with his figure. Crystal followed the bullets to a group of teachers. Midnight and all of the pros available.

Like that, they were safe and returned to UA. While Deku sustained heavy injuries, everyone else was alright. That day changed UA. It was probably this experience that made Crystal really wanna be a hero. Someone who'd really go that far for a soul.

It's been a while since the incident, and then it was UA's athletics event season. It was broadcasted on international TV and gained UA publicity.

1-A was lined up in their sports field, listening to Bakugo announce his expected place on a podium. He was probably the reason no class liked 1-A.

Midnight, as scandalous as ever in her skintight suit, announced their event. The obstacle race.

The first years were directed to a tight space, fighting to get to the front to get an advantage for the obstacle race. Three, two, one.

Crystal walked backward, getting space for her wings, then spread them out and flew. She didn't mind exposing her wings. She could do that with metal. Unfortunately, they were forbidden to bring anything.

She, amongst Bakugo, Todoroki, and other 1-A students, were the front runners. Well, that was until they reached the zero-pointer barrier. They were huge but slow. Crystal tried to fly over them, and she could easily, but Todoroki just had to freeze them and topple them down on her.

She was stuck in this thick pile of frozen robot debris. Well, it was metal so it was manageable. She got herself out, silently cursing Todoroki.

With her wings, the tightrope wasn't a hassle, the minefield wasn't a hassle either. Midoriya was the hassle. She was neck on neck with Bakugo, who was trying to beat Todoroki. But Bakugo was getting closer to Todoroki, she was lagging behind.

She stopped where she was stepped down in a small space where there were no mines. She carefully levitated as many mines as she could as high up as she could and released them, flying up high as soon as they begun to fall.

They exploded as they touched the ground, pushing people back and distracting.

It slowed Todoroki and Bakugo down, bumping into some mines and setting them off. As of that moment, she was in the lead. The finish line was within reach when all of a sudden, a barrage of explosions that she didn't set off pushed her back. She was too high up in the air to get injured.

Down at the minefield, there was a new champion. Midoriya was surfing the explosions, getting him first place.
