"Hello." (Name)'s tone was unsure, they turned towards Todoroki. "What's up?"

"I won't hesitate next round." Todoroki blatantly said, "You're my opponent and I am yours."

The words that came out of his mouth were bizarre, but it was Todoroki, he said bizarre things all the time. He looked at the individual, waiting for a response, they only gave a nod. Todoroki took it as them taking his declaration of war.

"..sure, but you already told me something similar earlier."

"I am aware, but because to us going against each other, I wanted to make it even or clear." Todoroki said.

"Oh, okay..?"

Todoroki then just walked away, (Name) just looked at him as he walked by. He gave another cold glance at the individual. So, the individual didn't really know what else to do, they just went back to the student section, to vibe with the gang.

☯︎︎

"Hi, Aizawa!~" Ashido happily calls out to individual, a big smile on her face, "Congrats on making it to the semifinals!"

"Thank you, Ashido-chan. I'm actually surprised I made it this far." The individual returns Ashido's big smile, but with a smaller one. "Gotta represent."

"You shouldn't be surprised, Aizawa! You're Quirk is an unusual one, but it's a good unusual, where does it even come from?" Ashido asked, "If it's too personal, just say so!"

"Nah, it's okay." (Name) assured, "I'm pretty sure you already know, Shota isn't my birth father, but he'll never not be my dad. My parents weren't abusive or anything, but they used to be pretty well-known heroes, that was until my mom died during a mission, my birth dad just snapped when he heard the news. Felt bad for him, he picked me up from school, told me what happened, and eventually we moved in with his dad."

Ashido didn't say anything, all she could do was look at the individual with her undivided attention. (Name) began to explain more.

"Like I said, my dad kinda snapped when mom died, making him not really being stable enough to return back as Japan's number three hero. He kinda became more protective of me-" (Name) stopped themself. "I kinda trailed off-"

"It's okay, you just seem like you were in the mode. Storytelling mode that is." Ashido assured, "I just didn't wanna interrupt!"

"Right, heh. Sorry, I guess it's just kinda a force of habit." The individual sees Bakugo(u) and Kirishima's battle going on out of the corner of their eye. They immediately rush down to the bottom/front row of their student section. Screeching out for Kirishima to win, a loud 'yas!' could be heard from them.

"Is Aizawa okay..?" Yaomomo asked, looking at them in concern. Midoriya came up, he said that they did things like this all the time. Yaomomo was a little hesitant to agree with that, "I'm just worried that they're going to use up their energy for cheering and not focusing on battling Todoroki."

"They'll be okay." Midoriya assured, "I haven't seen them do something like this since middle school."

Loud cheers started to appear in the crowd. (Name), had a sad face on, either them or Todoroki was going have to take on the yapping chihuahua, "Frick, I wanted to have a decent person to fight, if I even made it to the last round."

"This time, don't hesitate." Iida says, a stern look on his face, the individual nodded. "Good, now I'm counting on you to be the best competitor Todoroki has had all day! No offense, Midoriya, you did put up a good fight!"

"Thanks-" Midoriya say.

"Okay!" (Name) says feeling better about going against Todoroki. "I'm off, thank you all."

With that, (Name) skipped all the way to the preparation room. Just happy thoughts, no negative thoughts, it would be a little hard, but they had to believe in themself. Reminding themself of who they are, the individual talks softly, they are the only (Name) Aizawa, the lord of darkness and lightness, oh, and the protection of the broccoli king, their self proclaimed title from middle school.

"I'm awesome, Todoroki isn't as awesome as me." (Name) said, "Wait, actually no- Actually yes!"

"The Shoto Todoroki v.s. (Name) Aizawa Battle is about to start, let's get going, people!" A voice, more than likely Present Mic's voice, came over the intercom, "I am betting on (Name), I'm not gambling, by the way."

☯︎︎

(Name) and Todoroki make both their way up the stairs, come face-to-face, (Name)'s hair slightly blew, their eyes met with his blue-gray ones, the staring doesn't stop, even with Hizashi's introductions.

"From the Hero Course, son of the No. 2 Hero, and seems to be having a staring competition with his opponent, Shoto Todoroki!" Present Mic yells into the intercom, the crowd cheers.

"On the other side, we have my partner in crime when it comes to annoying Aizawa, their father, to death and also from the Hero Course, (Name) Aizawa!"

Once again, the crowd cheers, (Name) looks up at their classmates, nearly everyone in the student section all wave at them, aside form the dead serious kids in the class. They  give them a wave back before turning back to Todoroki.

"READY? GO!"

(Name) lets Todoroki do the first move, he creates a very tall ice wall. Possibly a way to stay invisible or to sneak up on the individual. They made it even more difficult for Todoroki by breaking the ice wall with their Quirk, as well as with the help of the sun, their Quirk allows them to turn invisible.

"Where did (Name) go?!" Present Mic asked, Todoroki looking all around for the individual to pop up out of nowhere. The crowd wondered where they went, all of a sudden, the individual popped out of nowhere, tackling Todoroki down. The two were close to the very edge of the arena limit. "Woah, be careful you two!"

(Name) and Todoroki struggled, the individual using their Quirk to add on to their strength, pushing Todoroki towards the limit. He uses his Quirk to freeze (Name) all the way up to their elbow.

Cold!

(Name)'s grip on Todoroki loosened, they see that Todoroki's right side was in flames, why? I don't know, but they get an idea, quickly grab his right wrist. Touching the ice wrapped around (Name)'s iced arm, it began to melt.

The individual was pushed off of by Todoroki, after this, he decided to go back to the individual, making them both further away from the edge of the arena. (Name) quickly gets up and uses the sunlight to turn invisible again. Todoroki made sure be on the look out again, but (Name) all of a sudden appears, looking exhausted.

The crowd all wondering if this was going to be the end of (Name)'s road.

"It really is you!"
