Izuku waved to Todoroki as he walked the opposite direction as him. Izuku walked to his side of the arena.
"God! I died! Bakugo actually killed me over this damn festival!" Izuku said to himself. He heard cheering outside.
"FOR ROUND TWO, WE HAVE SHOTO TODOROKI, VS IZUKU MIDORIYA!" Present Mic shouted. The two walked up onto the arena.
Maybe... This is a do-over... Izuku told himself.
"BEGIN!" Midnight shouted. Todoroki instantly started with a glacier. Izuku gritted his teeth as he came to a decision. He flicked his finger as he destroyed the entire glacier. His finger broke. Everyone cheered loudly.
"That was nothing!" Izuku grinned. Todoroki launched another glacier at him. Again, Izuku flicked his finger and destroyed it.
"I thought you could control your quirk!" Todoroki shouted.
"I thought you had fire." Izuku responded. He destroyed another glacier. Todoroki grunted as he propelled himself forward with ice.
"I'll get up close then." He said with his arm ready to send a wall at him. Izuku charged to 3% and jumped toward him. He landed a perfect punch to his gut. Todoroki went rolling back.
"Come on!" Izuku shouted. Todoroki shot a faster and bigger glacier. Izuku destroyed it once again. The crowd was going wild.
"YOU HAVE TO BEAT ME! DO IT!" Izuku shouted. Todoroki launched another glacier, which was inevitably destroyed.
I have to save him!
"USE THE FULL QUIRK!" Izuku shouted. Todoroki shot another glacier.
"NO! I WON'T USE THAT DAMNED QUIRK!" Todoroki shouted back with a glacier. Izuku destroyed it.
"IF YOU WANT TO WIN, YOU HAVE TO USE THAT FIRE!" Izuku shouted.
"WHY? I'M DOING JUST FINE!" Todoroki shouted sending another large glacier. Izuku clenched his fist.
"HOW!? YOU HAVEN'T HURT ME IN ANY WAY! NOT A SINGLE SCRATCH!" Izuku shouted. Todoroki gritted his teeth and fired another glacier.
"I WON'T USE THAT DAMNED QUIRK! IT BELONGS TO AN ABUSER!" Todoroki yelled as he sent off another glacier.
"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! WHO CARES WHO CAN USE FIRE! IT'S YOUR DAMNED POWER! SO USE IT!" Izuku shouted. Todoroki's eyes widened.
"IF YOU WANT TO WIN, YOU HAVE TO USE YOUR QUIRK! I COULD'VE ENDED THIS ALREADY, BUT I HAVEN'T! USE YOUR QUIRK!" Izuku shouted. He was suddenly blinded by a light. He covered his eyes as he looked forward. He saw Todoroki surrounded by fire and ice. He was using both of them. He had a grin and looked the most alive he's ever been.
"NOW THIS WILL BE A FIGHT!" Izuku shouted.
I didn't think this far. I have to use a 100% smash or I'm doomed.
Izuku charged 100% in his arm as Todoroki got ready to launch fire from his. Cementoss and Midnight nodded to each other. Cementoss our up multiple walls. Izuku and Todoroki unleashed their max power as the walls crumbled and contact was made. The fire spread out everywhere, almost hitting the crowd. Everyone stopped making noise. The smoke cleared to see Izuku and Todoroki still standing. They were looking at each other.
"Please Cementoss, Midnight. Let this match continue." Izuku said. The two teachers looked at each other. After about a second they nodded.
"CONTINUE!" Midnight announced. Everyone was cheering once again. Uraraka and Iida were going insane.
"Look at their power! That's incredible!" Uraraka said.
"Not only that, but they were having a conversation." Iida said. Uraraka looked at him.
"I saw Midoriya shout something that shocked Todoroki. Todoroki proceeded to use his fire. Whatever happened down there... it must have been good." Iida said. Uraraka looked back down to the battle. They haven't begun yet. Suddenly Todoroki shot fire at him. Izuku used a 100% flick and spread the fire to go around him. He began to move forward before slipping on ice. Todoroki coated the entire arena in ice. Todoroki launches more fire at Izuku. Izuku dodged out of the way with 3%. He couldn't attack with anything long range. He would slide after using so much force and fall off the arena. Izuku has to get close. Todoroki launched more fire as Izuku dodged once again. He kept moving this time trying to get close. The closer he got, the harder it was to dodge.
I have to win this! I need to take on Kacchan again!
Izuku realized how close he was. He had an idea. He jumped up and stomped both of his feet on the ground. It didn't do much however, only getting rid of the ice where he stomped. Todoroki shot out more fire. Izuku couldn't escape as the flames engulfed him. Everyone gasped and wanted to know what happened. The smoke cleared as Izuku leapt forward at Todoroki. Todoroki was expecting this. He suddenly made an ice wall that hit Izuku from below. He was launched upward. Once he hit the ground, Todoroki launched more fire. He couldn't dodge it. The fire hit him as he slid off the arena.
"SHOTO TODOROKI IS THE WINNER!" Present Mic announced. Everyone went wild. They was, and probably will be the most intense fight that day. Izuku got up as Todoroki ran over to him.
"Thank you." He said. Izuku scratched the back of his head with the fingers he still had left.
"No problem. I'd rather help a friend than win." Izuku said.
"You pulled me out of an endless hole. You're right. This is my power. My quirk. Not my dad's. Thank you." Todoroki said once again. Izuku nodded.
"Anyway, I should probably get patched up." Izuku said.
"What? OH YEAH! Sorry for burning you... a lot." He said. There were burn marks and holes in his shirt.
"No worries. You're missing half your shirt." Izuku said. Todoroki looked down at himself to see that his left nipple was showing. Girls were sure to fanboy for that.
"Let's go." Izuku said. The two walked back to Recovery Girl's office. She patched them up as Izuku had a cast put on. The two walked back to the benches. Half way through, they saw Endeavor. He walked up to Todoroki.
"So, your rebellion phase is over I see." He said.
"You'd be wrong. I'm just using my quirk. The key word is my. An important friend today showed me that my fire was given to me for good, not for your stupid goal. So, if you'd please, I'm going to my friends, who I find more of a family than you." Todoroki said walked right past Endeavor. Izuku followed.
"Midoriya. That's your name right?" Endeavor asked. Izuku turned to him.
"Yes. It is." He said.
"What did you tell him down there?" Endeavor asked.
"I told him to use his quirk to win. I would've won. I threw it away to save your son. You know, I wouldn't have had to save him if you didn't make me." Izuku said. He turned and walked away with Todoroki. Endeavor sighed as he also walked away. They got back to hear...
"TENYA IIDA IS THE WINNER!" Present Mic announced.
"You missed it! Iida did amazing! He ended the match in seconds!" Uraraka said.
"Let me guess. Iida ran behind the girl instantly and pushed her to the edge of the arena so that nobody would get hurt." Izuku said. Everyone stared at him.
"What? It's just a guess." Izuku said.
"That's literally what happened." Kaminari said.
"Huh. Lucky guess." Izuku said as he went and sat down. The next few matches went through. Izuku already saw them. He watched Bakugo set off a large explosion that sent Kirishima flying, which was kinda unnecessary. He watched Tokoyami win fair and square. With all of them, he made "lucky guesses" and they were right every time. People were confused on how he did it, but he did. Though, the battle between Iida and Todoroki came.
"So, what's your next prediction?" Kaminari asked.
"Well... for this one... I don't really know." Izuku said. The two got onto the arena.
"BEGIN!" Midnight announced. Todoroki instantly coated the floor with ice. I'd be hard for Iida to run. Todoroki created a large ice wall. As he did, Iida jumped forward and landed a kick against it. It didn't do much, but it broke a small hole in it. He was able to sit in it and be in the arena at the same time. Todoroki stopped for a moment. Nobody moved.
"He's still in there, huh?" He asked himself. He created fire and launched it at the ice. Iida couldn't do anything in the position he was in. The fire broke through the ice and sent him out of the arena.
"SHOTO TODOROKI MAKES IT TO THE FINALS!" Present Mic announced. Everyone cheered for him. Todoroki walked over to Iida.
"You good?" He asked.
"Yeah. There was nothing I could do. I was completely outmatched by your keen intellect and skill." Iida said. Todoroki nodded.
"Good match." He said. The two walked back to their seats to see Bakugo and Tokoyami already down there. After a few minutes, the arena was ready.
"BEGIN!" Midnight called out. Bakugo went off on Tokoyami. Explosion after explosion it got bigger and bigger. Dark Shadow couldn't even hold anymore. In fact, half the explosions weren't on Dark Shadow at all. Bakugo set off one final explosion and sent Tokoyami out of the arena.
"KATSUKI BAKUGO WINS!" Present Mic announced. Bakugo walked away once again.
"Well Todoroki, good luck." Izuku said. Everyone wished him luck as he left down to the arena. Soon enough they were all ready for the final match to begin.
"HERE WE HAVE IT! THE FINAL FIGHT! SHOTO TODOROKI, VS KATSUKI BAKUGO!" Present Mic shouted. The crowd went wild. The two walked up on stage.
I'll beat the sh¡t out of you. Todoroki thought.
"BEGIN!" Midnight announced. Bakugo instantly set off a large explosion. Todoroki protected himself with ice. After that he sent a large ice wall. The largest he's ever made. He knew Bakugo would get through. He heard small explosion. Todoroki sent a large blast of fire. It melted through the ice and caught an unexpecting Bakugo. The fire hit him direct. Todoroki expected him not to be done just yet. He used ice to propel himself at Bakugo. Bakugo jumped from the smoke to land an explosion. Todoroki jumped and sent the ice he'd been riding to hit Bakugo. Bakugo stopped himself from falling out of the arena.
"You really p¡ss me off." Bakugo said. He sent a really large explosion. Once again Todoroki blocks it with ice. He looked forward to see Bakugo right up close. He set another explosion. Todoroki went rolling back in the ground. As he did, he started creating ice. The ice made a path as he slide across it and around the arena. Todoroki got up and started skating. Bakugo went after him and tired to land an explosion but Todoroki was too fast. Todoroki then launched himself in the air. As he did, Bakugo jumped from under him. Todoroki grinned.
"I'm gonna enjoy this!" He said as he launched the biggest fire blast yet. Bakugo's eyes widened as he hit the ground and getting engulfed in flames. The flames lasted ten seconds before Todoroki stopped and landed on the ground. They all looked to see Bakugo in the ground.
"SHOTO TODOROKI IS THE WINNER!" Present Mic announced. Everyone went wild. Bakugo moves a little bit.
"I'm... not... done... yet..." He said setting off a small explosion. Didn't do anything. Midnight walked over and activated her quirk. Bakugo fell asleep. After a bit, the podiums were set up. Todoroki in first, Bakugo in second, and Tokoyami in third. Bakugo didn't need to be muzzled or anything like that. He stood there angrily that he lost. After that, that concluded the day. Everyone went home hyped and happy. Everyone got home and enjoyed time with their families. Izuku with his mom, Todoroki with his siblings, Iida with his brother, even Uraraka with hers, since they came back from a contract. The day finished pretty smoothly, and Izuku, who wasn't expecting to die, actually fixed what he screwed up. Not saving Todoroki...Aight y'all. So, I started a collaboration with @Diamondragon23. It's called The Hero's Horror. There's already a few chapters out, so check it out. I'm doing odd chapters while he's doing even. He's also doing a Return by Death Izuku story. Seriously, go check him out, along with his Return by Deku and The Hero's Horror.
