Chapter 9: All is Fair in Love and War Part II

Katsuki stretches his body with a growing smirk on his face as he jogged in place, he'd been waiting for this day since it 2nd year started. The Sports Festival had finally begun, Katsuki had been chosen by staff once more to do the initiation speech, he swore someone was just trying to piss him off at this point as he stepped out of the room into the outdoors with large screens surrounding yet another obstacle course. The sound of the cheering roared through the speakers as Katsuki looked back at the gates where the students were filing out, he saw a mixture of his classmates along with Class B's and H's student(s) since it was only Mei Hatsume who was waving.

She skipped over as Katsuki rolled his eyes, "The fuck do you want, Tech Bitch?" he asks as she places a hand on his shoulder, "Not much, I just wanted to ask if you wanted to help test my babies?" Mei says plainly as Katsuki deadpans. "Go fuck yourself ." he says as Mei mockingly placed a hand to her heart, "But Kacchan," Mei says as Katsuki begins to fume.

"Stop fucking calling me that!"

"Kacchan!" Izuku calls out as he runs over, "God fucking damn it Deku! If I hear one more fucking 'Kacchan' I'm ending your fucking bloodline!" Katsuki says as Izuku sweat drops, "It's good to see that you're fired up, I just wanted to say that I'm not losing this time." Izuku says while clenching a fist, "Don't make promises you can't keep Deku, You won't even make it to the end of the chapter! Also, tell your girlfriend to stop it with that dumbass nickname." Katsuki says Izuku blushes and waves his hands at Katsuki, "M-Mei isn't my g-girlfriend!" Izuku says as Tenya runs over.

"Bakugou don't break the fourth wall so casually, It disturbs the flow of events!" Tenya says karate chopping the air as Katsuki glared at him, "Fuck the flow of events, fuck the readers, and fuck all of you I'm winning this damn thing!" Katsuki yells as Kirishima runs over, "Yeah, I'm fired up too! I'll catch you in the finals Bakubro!" Kirishima says as Katsuki gives him a look, "Heh, don't expect me to pull any punches so you can look good in front of your girlfriend!" Katsuki exclaims as Todoroki shot him a glare as he walked past them, Katsuki glares back as he steps forward and walks toward the starting gate.

Momo adjusts her gym uniform as she exhales before closing her locker, she looks over to spot Asuga talking to Hagakure and Mina as she sends over a glance toward her with a sly smile on her face. "Hey guys I spotted Yaomomo, I'm going to cheer her on real quick alright?" Asuga says as the other girls nod and wave as they exit the locker room, she approaches Momo as the other girl looks away from her. "I never took you for the lying type." Momo says as Asuga places her hand on the locker in front of her blocking her path, "I'm not. I'm genuinely here to cheer you on, you'll need it." Asuga says as Momo shoots her a look, "Judging from last year and your lack of much real improvement from then, along with Todoroki, Katsuki, and myself, you're in for some real competition. So good luck." Asuga says as she takes her hand from the locker walking away from as Momo clenched her fist.

Asuga chuckles to herself as she exits the locker into the air of the outside world, she walks until she catches up to Katsuki, "Piss off Kana." Katsuki says as Asuga clings on to him tighter, "Why so cold Katsuki? A little affection before the big festival never hurt anyone?" Asuga says as she looks at Todoroki as he slightly steams at his fists, It looks like he noticed. She smiles as Katsuki swipes his arm away from her, "I don't have any fucking time for your games bitch. I'm settling this on the battlefield with you." Katsuki says as he walks ahead. Asuga smirks again as she looks behind her toward Momo who has a serious look on her face.

This Sports Festival was about to be a spectacle and Asuga was going to have a look of fun.

The festival started with the race along the obstacle course, Todoroki came in first with Katsuki at as close second and Izuku at third. Katsuki yelled at Todoroki who ignored him without a single word, Izuku looked at Todoroki as he retreated away to the rest area. Iuku had a worried and confused expression on his face while Katsuki was fuming, 'What's going on with Todoroki?' Izuku asks himself as he walks along with Katsuki to the next rest stop. Asuga came in 11th place while Momo came in at 17th place, the smile on Asuga's face never faltering.
