The Hawk and The Falcon *DISCONTINUED*

|43| Killing U.A. With Sound

"I can't sleep!" cheered Kaminari, sprinting across the common area as the girl groaned, whisper-yelling for him to stop yelling, as people were sleeping upstairs, "sorry..."

"Everyone sure is energetic," noticed Iida.

"It's... best not to think about it for now," admitted Jiro timidly, "if we start feeling nervous or shy... it'll hurt the performance... so once we're on stage, we just gotta roll with it and have fun!"

"Shy~?" smirked Kaminari, "I seem to remember someone getting quite red in the face~"

"Th-that's completely different!" she snapped.

"Yeah..." admitted Miune, walking over to the pair, "what you just said applies to tonnes of situations, really..." both Iida and Jiro turned to the Winged Hero's sister, "people can do great things when it's for someone else's sake, and if they get all nervous and shy, it can affect the way others are going to act and behave."

"I've never thought about that," Iida agreed, perking up as Midoriya pointed out that the rope that was going to hold up Aoyama, their 'disco-ball', was all frayed and destroyed, "it's going to be dangerous if we use it tomorrow..."

"Can't Yaoyorozu create some more?" Kaminari cocked his head, letting out a yelp of pain as the girl sharply whacked the back of the blonde's head, disgruntled.

"She's already asleep," she scowled.

"And she's not your personal factory!" pouted Ashido.

"I'll buy some more, first thing tomorrow," Midoriya promised, "I've got personal training... and I was going to go out and buy some things, anyway..."

"But we're on at 10!" blinked Iida, "and not to mention, most stores don't open until 9..."

"There's a hardware store about 15 minutes from here, I'm pretty sure they open at 8," Midoriya tried, none of his classmates seeming to be on-board with the idea.

"That's still cutting it kinda close," Iida hesitated, standing up and pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose, "we'd better get some sleep, you guys."

"Night!"

~TIMESKIP~

"Be as serene as the water's surface, Kaminari!" grinned Yaoyorozu.

"The water, huh?" muttered Tokoyami.

"I ain't wearing mine!" growled Bakugo, trying to avoid Kaminari, who was trying to put his orange T-shirt on.

"We had these shirts specially made, Bakugo, so you gotta wear yours," Jiro admitted.

"Midoriya's not here yet," observed Todoroki, pausing as he carried the boxes.

"Oh, he went to go buy some new rope," informed Aoyama.

"He's taking a long time to just purchase one item, though..." murmured the dual-haired boy hesitantly, the class jolting as a familiar loud voice popped through the loudspeakers.

"GOOD MORNING, U.A.!! HOPE YOU GUYS ARE READY, 'COS IT'S FINALLY TIME!" yelled Present Mic through his Voice Quirk, "TODAY'S THE DAY WHEN CLASS YEAR AND DEPARTMENT DON'T MATTER, WE'RE ALL JUST HERE TO CUT LOOSE! NOW, SAY IT WITH ME, EVERYONE!! LET THE U.A. SCHOOL FESTIVAL... BEGIN!!"

The school erupted with cheers.

9:25: Aizawa wandered up to the class with Mirio by his side and Eri clinging onto his leg timidly.

"Where the hell is Midoriya?" Aizawa raised a brow.

"Nobody knows, he went to go do some last-minute shopping to get a new rope," Miune admitted.

9:35: Kaminari finally managed to get the shirt onto Bakugo, grinning as he gave the class a thumbs-up.

9:59: The gymnasium was crowded with U.A. students from the Hero-Course, the Class 1-A students trying their hardest not to start panicking at Midoriya's absence.

"Where's Deku?!" whisper-yelled Uraraka.

"I don't know!" she whispered back fiercely, perking up as her feathers ruffled. She visibly relaxed, though she quickly shooed him onto the stage as the curtain began lifting, the show about to start.

"You know..." uttered the winged girl as the rest of the Special Effects Team gazed at her, "I don't know about you guys, but I've been hearing quite a lot of rumours." Her bronze eyes scanned over the audience. "There's a lot of students here in other departments and grades who aren't happy with U.A., and most of them are blaming it on us, Class 1-A. They're not here to have fun... they're here to criticise us..."

"What are you getting so low for, dude?!" whisper-yelled Kirishima energetically.

"Let's do this, damn it!" roared Bakugo, "and kill U.A. with sound!"

Almost instantly, the band began , the class grinning widely as the girl readied her feathers, a smile fading onto her face as she watched Jiro yell her thanks into the microphone.

"Here we go, you guys!" yelled the girl over the music as Midoriya lifted Aoyama in sync with the music, "go for it!"

"Knock 'em all dead!!"

A red feather zipped off her wing, making a beeline for a certain child. Mirio perked up as he saw the feather hovering in front of the girl's face. Eyes wide in curiosity, she swivelled her head as her red eyes widened, feeling her body lift off the ground. Mouth agape, she let out a small smile, beaming widely.

"Yay!!"

Seeing this, Miune smiled slightly.

Glad to see you're having fun, Eri...
