The Festival

〰️➰〰️

The morning had a strange air, like if the day itself turned into an entity that demanded the energy of everyone who was going to take part in today's activities. Today was the big day. Everyone was eating breakfast or getting ready for the festival and all the participants had something in mind, a worry, a plan, a doubt... They tried to keep themselves in check, to focus on the upcoming battle that they knew it was going to be a tough one.

"Izuku, please try not to get hurt again."
"Don't worry mom, everything's going to be ok."
"You told me this last time and you came home blind."
"HAHAHA. Sorry about that... Kukuku... I'm serious now, really, I'll be ok."
"Please, be careful... I'll record everything ok? All in HD ok?"
"Heh... Thank you, mom. I'm off."
'Please, look up for him Raiju-kun

〰️➰〰️

"I'll be going."
"Best of luck son, show them the real darkness."
"I will."

〰️➰〰️

"I'll be back."
"Good luck Shoto, try not to piss him off too much."
"Thank you Nee-san."
"For what?"

"Shoto? What are you smiling at?"

〰️➰〰️

"What, who are calling old? Take care you dumbass and don't you dare to lose or I'll beat you up."
"Shut up..."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"
"NOTHING, YOU CRAZY OLD HAG."
"I'LL SHOW YOU THE OLD!"
"Please... Stop it you two."

〰️➰〰️

"Are you ready Ojou-sama?"
"Yes, where are mom and dad?"
"They had to leave early to work, they asked me to wish you good luck on today's events."
"I see... Thank you."
"..."

Hours later they were wearing their jumpsuits, getting ready to enter the giant arena where the event was going to be held. They didn't look that nervous, this was a tense situation, but nothing compared to what they had to face when they fought the villains a few weeks ago. Perspective was a marvelous thing.

"Best of luck to us." Toru said when they were called and started walking in.

Midoriya was leading the line with Raiju cloaked next to him and said while looking over his shoulder:

"They instructed us to be in a single line, don't rush or leave the line."

They walked in as they were announced by Mic-sensei. The sun was burning on their faces and they felt ready. The moment they saw the stands, they felt a shiver. There were thousands of people cheering and shouting. Midoriya missed that but at least he could hear the noise. They were gathered around a stand in the middle of the field and waited for the announcer to call the person responsible for the event: Midnight, the heroine for adults.

"Why is she hosting an event like this if she's a hero for adults."
"Who knows."

Midnight licked her lips before speaking into the mic:
