Ishi:
      It was a few days before the sports festival. I was dying of nerves, I did not like being on TV. There had been this one time when the reporters had followed Bakugo and Eiji to our house. I had been the unfortunate one to open the door and had instantly been bombarded with questions.
  "How do you know Red Riot and Ground Zero?"
  "Are they in a relationship?"
     Other stupid questions like that. I had slammed the door in their faces and hidden in my room for the rest of the day. Not my best moment, but it had made me permanently uncomfortable with that type of attention
    "Hello!! Earth to Shima!!" Mina waves a hand in front of my face. "Hon, you've been stareing at your chopsticks for ten minutes. You good?"
     "Oh," I shook my head. "Yeah I'm good. Just a bit nervous."
     "Don't worry , kero," Tsu said. "They are going to love you."
      "That's what I'm worried about," I muttered. But no one except Utagokoru seemed to hear me. She put a hand on mine and smiled softly. I gave her a fanged smile back.
    Oh, and as if the sports festival wasn't enough, I'm also trying to help Bakugo ask out my brother. I don't mind that part too much, but his constant yelling is really getting on my nerves.
     "For the last time, YES!!" I yelled.
    "Don't yell at me Statue Bitch!" Bakugo yelled back.
     "Oh shut the hell up Bakugo!" I slumped over the table in the common room, burying my face in my arms. "I swear I will use my quirk if I'm forced to. I'd like to see you yell when your head is encased in concrete."
    This made him shut up, but he was still fumeimg.
     "Ok," I sighed. "One more time. You will ask him to go on a hike with you. You reach the lake, and have lunch. Make sure you bring something that has meat in it."
     He scoffed at that, but sulkily went quiet at the look I gave him.
    "After you eat lunch you will ask him to be your boyfriend. I'm 200% certain that he will say yes, assuming you don't mess it up. Also, don't bother with the romantic stuff, it might confuse him."
     Bakugo snorted. "Of course it would." He stood up and turned to walk off. Then he seemed to have a thought.
      "Don't you dare tell Racoon eyes, Dunce face, or Soy Sause. If you do I will kill you and then haunt your dreams."
     I rolled my eyes. "It would be the other way around. If you killed me, I would haunt your dreams." He made a move as if to explode my face and I leaned back quickly. "Relax, I'm kidding. I won't tell those three anything."
     He considered this for a moment then walked off. I giggled.
     "I never said anything about Uta," I rushed off to find my best friend.

(Time skip to the festival)

      I walked out of the arch and faught the urge to hide behind my brother. There were so many people! The first years had already finished their challenges. I suppose that I was glad that we were going second. I know we would have gone second anyway, but it helped. Uta came over to me and grabbed my hand. I blushed, my face burning and looked at her quizzically. She had her headphones on (She had requested them) firmly and was pulling her bangs farther over her face. Her eyes were squeezed shut and I could almost see the tears begining to form. I relized she was worse off in this area than I was. I pulled her closer, sheilding her from the worst of the flashing lights.
    "Aww, look," I heard Mina squeal from behind me. "That is so cute."
    "Shush Pinky," I called back to her. A humph was the only responce. I looked out over the crowd, wondering if my friend Jiki Ningyo was in there. She wasn't a hero in training, but she had been a great friend for a long time. We stopped and I noticed the purple hair of Shinso next to Kami. I smirked, loving the ships. I didn't pay attention to what we were doing. Midnight had been asked to preside over the sports festival again. Presidedent Mic was commentating, as per usual.

(I have no idea what to do for the first two challenges so you can use your imagination. You can comment and give me ideas and I might rewrite this later. Just know that Both Merodi and Ishi make it past the challenges, and the last one is a one on one battle like the one that they had in the manga/anime)

    "How the hell did I do that?" I gasped to my self, clutching a stich in my side and breathing heavily. I looked up and saw that there was a bracket displayed on the screen. 'Oh, we're doing that again.' I thought, attempting to get air into my lungs. I studied the board, and saw that I was going against my brother first.
    "Sis!" Ei yelled from across the feild. He came over, a wide smile on his face. "Hey look at that! We're fighting."
    "Yes bro-bro, we're fighting," I smiled at him, finaly able to stand up straight. "If you can, will you please refrain from shattering me? I don't need more scars."
    "Sure thing Ishi." He pulled me into a huge hug. I obliged and hugged him back.
    "Now," I said pushing his shoulder. "Go get your angry pomeranian. He's over there in the corner." Eijiro blushed, but waved to me as he ran over to Bakugo. I studied the screen again and saw that Uta would be fighting TetsuTetsu, a boy that was basically my brother in almost every way. I made my way over to her.
    "Hey," I pulled on headphone off. "You made it. How 'ya holding up?"
    "Not to well," She wispered. "I used to much of my voice before. I don't know if I'll be able to fight as well."
    "Don't worry Hon. You'll do great! All you have to do is not take in the song lyrics yet. Save that and just blast him with notes untill he's out of the ring." I gave her a thumbs up. She smiled softly and nodded. I hugged her quickly, then went to go eat.
(Small time skip to Merodi's turn)
     "And now we have Utagokoru Merodi and TetsuTetsu TetsuTetsu! The unbreakable metle man of 2B and the quiet singer of class 2A. Who will win?" President Mic's voice blasted through the stadium. I sat forward in my seat, eager to see what would happen.
