Kowareta finally arrived in the middle, the jewel within her grasp. Nobody else was there though, it was only her and the echoing sound of the wind. The jewel was a one-of-a-kind, rare, cerulean-coloured sapphire. Kowareta took a step forward but something seemed odd, this was easy- too easy. Nothing is ever this easy, at least not in a situation like this. She suddenly felt the urge to look behind her- so she did. Eyes wide open she grabbed Bakugo's arm and pushed him down to the floor. She took a few steps back and got into a fighting stance, Bakugo got up and wiped the edge of his lips with his arm then started charging toward Kowareta. Kowareta managed to dodge the first hit but soon realised that it was a decoy. Bakugo hit her in the stomach and went flying across the middle but managed to stop herself before she went out of the battle area. 

In a moment of quick thinking, she released a shot of poison that was heading towards bakugo, he dodged it and it a wall of ice. Todoroki had made it to the middle. They all stood there, no one making a move- however, everyone was on high alert. Kowareta couldn't use her quirk- for various reasons that is. She needed to keep Bakugo and Todoroki busy enough for him to get the jewel and continue the plan as usual. A water droplet fell on the floor, then as if on cue everyone jumped into action. It was happening so fast, no one knew who was attacking who. Kowareta managed to get close to the jewel but Bakugo held her leg and swung her across the area. She saw a vent open up close the boys. 

"I have to use my quirk," she thought. "Even if it is just for a moment." Kowareta decided to wait because of someone on the other side of the battle area signalling her. She nodded and starting charging towards the boys. Grabbed Todoroki by his arm and pushed him down then gave a hard hit on the back of his neck, which made him stay put for a while. Looked at Bakugo and clenched her fists attempting to punch him, he dodged it. So she kept hitting him, landing hits one by one and Bakugo dodging all of them. She saw Todoroki get up so she screamed: "KIRISHIMA NOW!" The boy hiding on the other side appeared and in a flash jumped in the air, Todoroki shot ice at him but Kirishima hardened his arm using it as a shield to protect him. He grabbed the jewel. There was a moment of silence in the battle area. Down below everyone's heart started racing as they waited anxiously for someone to make a move.

"Did we just-" Kirishima started, "No, SHITTY HAIR, we are still here" Bakugo screamed cutting Kirishima off.  He shot a blast at Kiri, "Kirishima here!" Kowareta yelled waving her arms up in the air. Kiri threw the jewel so it landed in Kowareta's hands, but todoroki jumped ahead of her and the jewel landed in his hands. Kowareta tackled him making the jewel slip out from his hands and slide to the other side of the area. Everyone stared at each other, then at the jewel. Kiri and Bakugo started running towards it. Kowareta grabbed Bakugo's leg and pushed him down. Meanwhile, Todoroki took care of Kirishima. Bakugo took his other hand and swung it and landed a blast on Kowareta back. It hurt but Kowareta didn't let go. 

"Use your quirk!" Kiri yelled. Kowareta hesitated, Rain started pouring down and she yelled: "I- I can't!" Nobody knew about her secret. "Do you want to win?" Kiri yelled and that was all he had to say. Kowareta looked the vent she saw earlier. She sighed and let her body relax. "Kiri- the vent!" She said. Kirishima managed to distract Bakugo and Todoroki so Kowareta attacked them both from behind, she put her hands on their mouths and released a tiny bit of poison. Enough to send them both to sleep. "Kirishima, check their pulse," Kowareta said, as she checked Bakugo's pulse then tensed up. "They'll be fine- they will just a really, really, really, really (emphasise on really) bad headache when they wake up." They pushed them both through the vent. 

Kowareta held out her hand and said "jewel." Kiri handed her the jewel and yelled in excitement "Yes! we won." Kowareta raised an eyebrow "Correction-won." She pushed Kirishima through the same vent and closed it. There was an awkward silence until finally, she smirked and said: "So... I get to keep this beauty right?" Beauty meaning the jewel she claimed. The area started to fade away revealing a milky white room with a door-only thing visible. She went through the door only to find out all of Class 1-A staring at her with their mouths wide open.
