Chapter 14: "The Winner of the Race is..."

Previously...

Present Mic (TV Projection): "Obstacles have shown up suddenly! Starting with the first barrier! Robo Inferno!

Kaminari: "Aren't those the zero-point villains from the entrance exam?"

(R/S): "--Seriously? The hero course had to fight those?"

(R/S): "--This is what they meant by obstacle?!"

(R/S): "--There are too many! I can't get through!"

The Zero Pointer was preparing to attack, but everyone else seemed frozen in solid. In response I increased the strength in my wings, reaching rapidly a convenient height. When that happened I dropped backward, closing my wings to get a good vector strength. The moment I got close to the height level of the robot, I rotated with great force completely wrapping my body in the wings, heading towards the head of the zero pointers.

In this way I quickly crossed the robot's head, followed by a strong explosion, the shock wave of the destruction granted me more momentum to penetrate the frame of two more machines that were behind the first in just one go. Killing three birds with one stone.

Todoroki was the only one who seems to have had more capable reaction time, seeing that one of the robots stretched out his arm to grab him, concentrating his ice power, turned the all the 5-meter radius around him into a temperature zone less zero. Spreading on his circumference, attacking with a brutal blizzard from his right side. Freezing the giant robot in seconds as if were liquid nitrogen.

(R/S): "Those two stopped them!"

(R/S): "Between their legs! We can get through!"

However, the position that the frozen robot was in was one out of balance, only Todoroki pass through it before it began to decay. Landing with a giant boom on the ground as all the dirt of the place was picked up, making a huge earth curtain. Nonetheless, I continued to fly proceeding with the race, Todoroki was running not far from my position. It seems that with these movements it was enough for us to obtain good advantage.

Present Mic (TV Projection): "(Y/N) and Todoroki from Class 1-A! They destroyed the robots in a single move! How elegant! Amazing! Those two are the first through! It's you know, practically unfair!"

Aizawa (TV Projection): "Their actions are logical and strategic."

Present Mic (TV Projection): "As expected from someone admitted based on recommendation and the highest score of the entrance exam! Todoroki coming through showing off the caliver of his power and (Y/N) with a demonstration of accuracy and brutality! Those Robo Infernos couldn't get past their elites moves!"

Present - Third POV

After our loved protagonist, as well as Todoroki, were able to make their way masterfully through the massive hordes of giant robots, although the two elites of the race were dominating the field, all those behind them could say the opposite. The iced robot has fallen, possible the only through was blocked completely. Most of the students were stil in shock, having one zero-pointer on the entrance exam was enough trouble, how could they possibly compete against that many at the same time. And it didn't help the mood as it appears that the structure of the defeated machine had buried a couple of individuals, been under tons of steel and ice.

(R/S): Random Student

(R/S): "Hey! Someone's trapped underneath!"

(R/S): "Wouldn't that kill them?"

(R/S): "Will people die at this sports festival?!"

The suspense did not seem to diminish until the moment the metal surface of the robot began to crack from the inside out. The surface finally cease, revealing a flash of red hair shotting out of the area, showing a Kirishima with its active hardening power.

Kirishima: "Like I'd die!" The tone of his voice was a weird combination of despair and attitude.

Present Mic (Through the screen): "Kirishima from Class 1-A was underneath! That's crazy!"

Kirishima: "That bastard, Todoroki!" After been able to breathe with freedom, Kirishima was definitely pissed from the cheap and cowardly tactics of his friend/opponent. "He timed it on purpose so it'd be right when they fell. If it hadn't been me, someone would've died!" He turn to look at the back where the remaining students were standing.

What he didn't know was that there was in fact someone else under the remaining part of the robot. But contrary to his statement, this individual was a lot more like him, almost if they were made almost exactly the same. As there was at his left another hole breaking on the structure.

Tetsutetsu: "That Todoroki boy... is a real bastard." The only difference between him and Kirishima was the fact that Tetsu with his power active was completely made of a silver color.

Present Mic (Through the screen): "Tetsutetsu from Class B was also underneath! That's crazy!"

Tetsutetsu: "If it hadn't been me, someone would've died!"

Poor Kirishima was definitely not pleased with the scene that unfolded in front of him, the way they talked, the similar attitude they had, and their powers that had the same purposes, they were at essence ripped offs of each other.

Kirishima: "Our quirks are pretty much the same?! I have a hard enough time standing out as it is!" He had no time to waste and started his pursuit for the leaderboard of the race, while doing so, he was spilling the manly tears of deception for his popularity problem.

Tetsutetsu: "Wait, you little--!" Tetsu deactivated his quirk to follow closely the steps of his red copy.

Kaminari: " Those two are lucky! They can get through without being afraid of getting crushed."

(R/S): "Anyway, let's work together for now to clear a path!" He demanded at all the students behind him as he raised his arm to activate his quirk, which appears to give him a clear green color reptiles scales.

Although his time to shine was interrupted by a resounding explosion accompanied by a big elevation of black smoke. Having the young explosion boy of Class 1-A blasted off with his bombastic power.

Kaminari: "Bakugou?!" His eyesight moved upwards trying to focus his vision on his partner.

Bakugou once again was showing off all the natural talent that he was born with, elevating each time an explosion left one of his hands. It would appear that he had fought one of this robots at the entrance exam, he seems to know the pattern of attack of the robot. As he dodged the attack from the thing with great ease. Raising above the head of the machine to enter on a rapid freefall.

Present Mic (Through the screen): "Class 1-A's Bakugou! Since the bottom's blocked, he goes overhead! Clever!"

Sero: "You seem like you'd be the type to plow straight through, but you can go when you need to, huh?" He was fast approaching Bakugou's position at the head of the robot.

When he catches up both him and Bakugou jump from the top to continue the race, as that was happening all the Pro-heroes were engaing on a conversation, the topic was the obvious development of the student's skills.

Snipe: "As expected, most of the group that's gone ahead is from Class A."

All Might: "Class B and the other courses aren't bad, either! It's just..." He was serious about the manner at hand.

Aizawa: "...Class A doesn't spend a lot of time standing around." He was analyzing as well the development of his class. Although, that his expression was cover by all the bandages, it was clear like the water of a calm ocean that he was surprised by the actions of his class, how the incident with the villains at the U.S.J. was the experience that the students needed to improve, stop hesitating.

The different students from Class 1-A were rapidly opening the field of all the obstacles, Tenya using the build-up momentum of his legs, jumping and delivering a flying kick at a one-pointer, flying from the impact in the continued direction. Jirou, on the other hand, was using her jacks at the same time on two one-pointers simultaneously, sending shock waves of sound directly into their systems, clearing her path in between them. Kaminari fought another robot by jumping on the side of his arm charging a powerful outburst of electricity.

Aizawa: "Those who experienced firsthand that world above them through the incident a the U.S.J... Those who had fear planted in their hearts... they all used that experience to drown out their hesitation."

Now that the emphasis on the procedure that each student of the class, it was time to see the problems that Izuku was at, considering that he needed to contain his power unless he wanted to end in an awful situation. As he ran and dodge the attack of the robot that focus him as a target, he saw one of the metal plates that the iced robot left behind. He took it from the ground and prepare it to attack the robot that was still following him. Destroying it in one mighty swing with the metal sheet, trying to accelerate and made up for all the loose ground. But his attention was once again grabbed by how three of the zero-pointer in front of everyone, fell on their backs after they were impacted. The shots were fired by one cannon that the Creati Girl Momo created out of her abdomen.

Izuku: "Yaoyorozu."

Momo: "A piece of cake!" She started running, leaving the cannon. It was to be expected of her to have such a cool mind during these types of situations.

Those shots cleared the path for all the students, as the robot had fallen violently out of the way.

Izuku: "She defeated those zero-pointer villains so easily? No wonder she got in through recommendations."

At the Stadium

Snipe: "During the entrance exam, they were there to be avoided. If you see them as things to be defeated they're dumb hunks of metal. You'll start to see openings."

Present Mic (Through the screen): "Hey, hey! The first barrier's a piece of cake? Then what about the second?" He got up from his seat, his hand was at the top of his head as he was excited to see the next stage of the event. "If you fall you're out! If you don't wanna fall, then crawl! It's "The Fall"!"

He introduced the next obstacle of the race, it was a great level of disconnected ground united only by simple lines of ropes. The fall from the top of one of the platforms was equivalent to a high company building. Certain doom awaits for any student that falls from that height.

At the Obstacle Race

Uraraka: "When did they build this stage?" She was preoccupied with her hands at her chest, it was surprising for her how extreme U.A. can go for the training of their students. While she had an equal worried Mina at her side.

As that was happening her partner Tsuyu got in front of them, kneeling down and preparing to jump.

Mina: "Tsu?" She said confused her frog friend continue with her actions.

Tsuyu: "Kero!" She raised her voice as she jumped on the rope in one go, landing perfectly balanced, using both arms and legs to crawl through the structure. Her frog attributes gave her the advantage on this part of the race. "This is like a glorified tight rope." She continue crawling at a constant speed gaining some ground from the rest.

Mina: "She's fast!" Her and Uraraka were surprised by the aptitude Tsuyu was demonstrating for the stage of the race, Mina had some sweat going down the side of her face. It seems that her shock could be caused by the doubt of how is she going to pass this herself.

Hatsume: "Glitter! Here it is! Here's my chance to show off! It's time for my support items to be in the limelight!" She was preparing herself, as she had her hands on her knees as she bends a little forward. "Look, all you support companies across the country! Wire arrows and hover soles! Glitter!" Hatsume was extending out her arms wide now, as all the students near her seem to be taken back either for her mannerism or the number of machines that she had equipped.

Uraraka: "You're from the support course?"

Mina: "What? It's okay to bring in items?" She was a little upset, after all, it was prohibited for her to use her costume, and now this girl appear to have all sorts of items to give her advantage.

Hatsume: "The hero course undergoes combat training regularly, right? In order to keep things fair, we are allowed to equip items and costumes, as long as we developed them ourselves!" Her arms finally lowered from their extended position as now she was using only her right hand to point at herself. "Or perhaps should say..." She activated at the same time one of the launchers that she had at the height of her chest. "...for those of us in the support course, this is the place where we can show off our ideas and skills to companies!" The launcher that she shot got impaled on one of the pillars of earth, as she then activated her boots as well. A pair of boots use a blowhole to flout off the ground, approaching the edge of the fall, jumping to the abyss. "Come, take a look, all you companies! Especially the big ones!" She presses a bottom at the side of her face, the reaction was that the rope of the launcher impaled on the pillar started to roll up to its original position, rapidly making Hatsume approach the pillar. "Look at my super cute babies!" Then as she reached the pillar the air power of her boots launch her to the top surface advancing masterfully to the other half of the obstacle.

Mina: "That's some misplaced equality!" She made a little tantrum as she began her pursuit, inspiring the students that were being left behind.

Shinso: "Nice." He had the most disturbing expression that this humble author has ever seen on his life.

Present Mic (Through the screen): "A lot of different people are working hard for their chance, huh, Eraser Head?"

Aizawa: "What are you idiots stopping for?"

As the teacher on the cabin was doing the comments about the race, the first two leaders of the race were almost finishing "The Fall," and advancing for the third and last stage of the race. (Y/N) was using the same strategy as he was flying through the skies above all the problems of all those on the ground. On the other hand, Todoroki was sliding through the ropes by freezing them. He was in hot pursuit because by flying, (Y/N), had better chances of winning this race than him running to the finish line.

Present Mic (Through the screen): "And now, the leaders of the pack are getting through first!" As he said that Bakugou was fast approaching the leaderboard as well, using his explosions to fly to their direction. "That's so uncool!" Present Mic was now referring to the so embarrassing show that the young Tenya Iida was giving as he used his quirk to slide and balance through the obstacle. "Huh? What is this? It seems that Class 1-A is going to have its first elimination." As he proclaimed that, everyone at the stadium turns to look at one of the Giant Televisions, it showed a young girl with dark purple hair with jacks on her ears, it was Kyoka.

Scene Change - "The Fall"

All the attention of the audience fell towards the middle of the field where the woman known as Jirou was. She had difficulty holding on, she was swinging with only one of her arms. Which could not bear the force with which gravity carried her down.

Jirou: "NO, NOT LIKE THIS!!! NOT LIKE THIS!!!" She yelled desperately in a attempt not to let go of the rope, at this point, it didn't seem that she cared if she was eliminated or not, more like not to fall to the absolute abyss. She was sweating and red from the effort that she was putting on her hand.

Hagakure: "Hold on, I'm coming, Jirou!!!" The invisible girl that was close to the event was running as fast as she could to help her friend.

Jirou: "I can't hold on anymore!!! I'm slipping!!!" She was using her left arm to get a hold of the base of her right arm. It was clear that she was exhausted, she was kicking her feet rapidly in desperation to give herself a miraculous impulse for her to get a better grip on both the rope and the situation.

Third POV

Our young protagonist was flying just above Todoroki, using his wings to propel himself. The wind going through this hair and clothing, although that he was an a race, this environment gave him peace of thought. Closing his eyes and enjoying the air in his face, as he breath the freshness of the day. But this serenity was taken abruptly from him as he hears the announcement of Present Mic.

Present Mic (Through the screen): "Huh? What is this? It seems that Class 1-A is going to have its first elimination."

After that, our hero didn't have the will to stay focus, and decided to turn around. His vision changed from side to side attempting to localize the source of the comment. His attention was grabbed when he heard the screams of one of his friends at the center of the obstacle stage.

Jirou: "I can't hold on anymore!!! I'm slipping!!!" She was using her left arm to get a hold of the base of her right arm. It was clear that she was exhausted, she was kicking her feet rapidly in desperation to give herself a miraculous impulse for her to get a better grip on both the rope and the situation.

(Y/N) paused for a moment, stabilizing his flying by opening up his wings to the side. For a couple of seconds, he seemed hesitant, as turn to look at his intended direction. Witnessing how Todoroki continue his pursue to the finish line. For that glimpse of time, he was thinking of getting back on track, but...

Flashback

Flashback End

(Y/N): (In his Mind) "Not ever again." He return his mind to the game. There was something or rather someone more important to him than victory, right now. He propel himself changing his direction back to where he came from. Leaving a gush of wind through his path, as some of the students stop to watch the conclusion of the situation.

Present Mic:(Through the screen) "(Y/N), my friend, if you can hear me! The finish line is the other way!"

As (Y/N) was fast-approaching Jirou, the earphone jack girl had slipped form the rope completely.

Jirou: "AAAAAHHHHH!!!" She screamed as her body was accelerating each second towards the floor, to where she was certain that she wasn't going to get completely clean out of this one. She watched as the light of the surface was getting away at a faster rate that she imagine at first. Turning her vision to the ground that was a totally different story from the sky. She closed her eyes, crossing her arms in front of her in hope to protect herself as much as she could.

(Y/N): "Jirou!!!" He yell as he was at the spot of the accident, making a double turn towards the ground entering the same space that Jirou fell from. He closed his wings to have a good vector factor reaching his friend, opening his way through the air resistance as much as possible. Taking into consideration this fact with the great difference of their body mass, (Y/N) had the hopes to reach her on time. He was just mere meters away from her, although the same thing can be said of the floor, so he extended his arms as much as he could, until he finally felt the sensation of clothing on the tips of his fingers. "I got you, Jirou!!!" Rapidly wrapping his arms around her.

Jirou: "(Y/N)!!!" She said in surprise, her arms find their way around his neck as well.

In that second, (Y/N) deploy another a pair of wings to make a set of 4 wings in total. He use them to create enough air pressure to surpass the forces of gravity and inertia that were taking them to the floor.

It seem as his plan was a success as he surf from than situation with some centimeters away from the ground, transforming the speed of the fall to fly back at the surface.

(Y/N): "Last floor!!! Men's and sportswear emporium!!!" He was making a joke of the event, as he ascended back to the festival. Probably to take out all the stress that he accumulated until now. Jirou on the other hand was almost suffocating (Y/N) with the strength behind her grip. Having her eyes shut as much as she could.

All the students that were around the area were poking their heads to the bottom tro see how those two ended. But all of them were pushed by the wind when our hero and his friend finally blasted at high speed from inside of the cliff. When he was out he reduce his speed, flapping his wings to land gently on the same platform that Jirou had fall from.

(Y/N): "Jirou, you are safe! You can let go of my neck, now... if you want!" He said in a kind of desperate tone as his face was turning blue because of the lack of oxygen.

Jirou: "Sorry!" She said all of a sudden as she open her eyes, realizing what she was doing letting go of (Y/N)'s neck and standing back on her feet while her friend tried to regain his composure. "Are you okay?" She asked worried with her hands raised in attempt to be helpful.

(Y/N): "Yeah, I'm okay." He regain his composure after a long a deserved breath in of air. He turn to look at how high they were from the top of the cliff. "Ufff, that would of been ugly!" He had a sweatdrop going down the side of his face with a laugh at the end.

Jirou: "(Y/N), I don't get it."

(Y/N): "Well, what I meant is that it would have been a nasty fall and..." He didn't finish his sentence, interrupted by Jirou.

Jirou: "No, what I don't get is that you basically gave up your whole advantage on the race, you basically lost to save me." She had her fist up to the height of her chest, as she had a blush on her face, although is not clear the emotion behind that reaction.

(Y/N): "Ohh that!" He said rolling his eyes on realization to what she was referring to. "Well, is rather simple once you attack the problem with logic... Remind me, how many times the Sports Festival is available for each student?" He was giving the sensation where you could witness his kind aura radiating from him.

Jirou: "Three... Only three chances." She had a preoccupied manner because to her perspective (Y/N) was wasting basically one of his chance to show what he can do. The opportunity to get scouted, reaching a new step towards his dream.

(Y/N): "Exactly, three chances." He said with a smile as he show three fingers.

Jirou: "I'm not sure that I follow?" She said a little bit confused to where he was going with this.

(Y/N): "Exactly, I got three chances to win this...but I only got one Jirou!" He said with a closed smile that show those beautiful white teeth, as he patted her head gently with his right hand. "Besides, this isn't over! We can still catch up!" As he said this, he extended once again all four of his wings, ready to take off. But he was waiting for Jirou to get on his back, he had the intention to give her a ride to the next obstacle fase.

Jirou: "(Y/N), thanks but you already did enough for me... I going find my own way to the next fase." She said with a tiny and gentle smile that had as a complement a visible pair of red dots on her cheeks.

(Y/N): "But..." He standed straight once again to face his friend.

Jirou: "Don't worry, I'm going to be alright!" She said with a playful laugh as she made a motion with her hands for (Y/N) to get going. Something that reflected on our protagonist's face, as started to walk backwards, standing just at the very edge of the platform.

(Y/N): "I supposed that I would see you on the other side, then." He made a goodbye motion with his hand as he jumped from the platform without taking his eyes from his friend. Falling meters down before getting away from the scene flying, thanks to the new pair of wings his speed had double.

Jirou: (In her mind) "You never cease to amaze me, (Y/N)!" She was watching how the shadow user went back soaring through the skies. It was hard for her to understand completely what (Y/N) had on his mind, but what was she sure of, it was her happiness, for having someone like him on his life.

At the Stadium

All the spectators on the stadium saw multiple of the scenes unfolding at the different television at the top of the structure. Many of them were surprised by the level of competence that the first years were showing on this event, many promising future heroes.

Random Citizen - (R/C)

(R/C): "That guy in first place is way ahead!"

(R/C): "His quirk is really strong, but his natural athletic ability and judgement are also a cut above everyone else's."

(R/C): "Of course it is. That's the Flame Hero, Endeavor's son."

(R/C): "No wonder! The blood of the guy second only to All Might, huh?"

(R/C): "I think you guys are forgetting about that (Y/N) kid, he is still on the game even after saving his friend."

(R/C): "He is just half way to getting back to the leaderboard!"

(R/C): "Does anyone know where he came from?"

(R/C): "Everyone will fighting over who gets those two as sidekicks"

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "The lead pack is a step ahead, but below them, everyone's clumped together! They haven't announced how many people will make it through, so you can't relax! Push forward!" Most members of Class 1-A were already reaching the end of "The Fall," while the current leader of the race, Shoto, was entering the minefield that had a big poster that had a skeleton on the center with the phrase "Danger - Mines."

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "And now, we've quickly arrived at the final barrier! The reality here is... that it's a minefield! It's set up so that you can tell where the mines are if you look carefully!So you have to exploit your eyes and legs! By the way, these landmines are for games, so they're not that powerful, but they're loud enough and flashy enough to make you wet your pants!" He got so into it that he was standing, exclaiming the last part of his sentence by making a dramatic grab of head with his hands at both sides of him.

Aizawa: "That depends on the person." He said in his usual absent tone, not bothering to even turn to look at his partner.

Back at the minefield, the explosions were happening each time one of the students was not careful enough to see where he is going. As Mic had said a few moments ago it was clear that the mines are not powerful enough to cause you real damage, but it was enough to send you flying a few meters. Not to mention the disorientation you will suffer. For some reason the explosions were made to be of a pink color, like they were not easy enough to see already.

Bakugou: "This doesn't affect me!" Kacchan was screaming as he used his explosions to blast himself forward, resulting the mines as useless to slow him down, he was flying above the problems of the floor. This development to him to the first place position reaching Todoroki rather fast, taking him by surprise. "Bastard, don't declare war to the wrong person!" He used his left arm to basically attempting an attack on Shoto, forcing him to look out by dodging a few steps back.

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "And now, we've got someone new in the lead! Rejoice, mass media! It's the kind of development you guys love!" All the citizens on the stadium were going nuts, Mic was right, they were waiting for some sort of conflict on the leaderboards of the race. It would have been boring otherwise. "Hey, hey, hey, the rest of the pack is also speeding up! However, even as they push and pull at each other, can the two at the top remain in the lead?" All the students like Iida and Shiozaki, were doing their best to keep up, while Todoroki and Bakugou were basically fighting each other while running, Kacchan trying to blast Shoto and Shoto trying to freeze Kacchan. They were evenly match.

But what no one was taking into account, was the plan of a desperate green hair boy, that with a robot part that he took on the first phase, and has been carrying it for the whole race, use it to pile multiple mines on the same spot. After taking just enough, he took some step for impulse and jumped with the robot part as cover. It was needless to say the magnitude of the explosion at the moment that the metal made contact with the explosives.

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "There's a huge explosion at the back?What's with that force?!" When the light and smoke finally died down, it can be differenced the green boy Izuku with the robot platform reaching great altitude, the force of gravity making it's magic, force him just on the right angle to get a good speed towards the first two place that were still engaged on their combat. "Was it an accident, or did he do it on purpose? Class A's Midoriya is in hot pursuit with that blast!" His thinking was on point as he was able to pass the first two, leaving them with their mouths open. "Actually, he's taken the lead!"

Izuku kept skating through the air with force, but no control whatsoever, and even so, his long-lived rival was not just going to stand there with his arms crossed. He was pissed. "Deku! Don't go ahead of me!" Both the loud boom man and the Zuko cosplay reference were throwing every cautious strategy to the trash and began their desperate pursuit for first place. Kacchan using his explosive glide and Todoroki running through a ice path that he made.

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "The two formerly in the lead have to stopped trying to slow each other down and are chasing Midoriya! Now that they have common enemy, they've stopped fighting! The fight's not over yet, though!"

Sadly, for our dear Deku, his brilliant plan had failed on different aspects. First, he didn't thought through his landing. Second, he had loose both speed and balance. And finally, his opponents were about to overrun him. Now, both guys were centimeter away from him, as he was about to land on his back facing to the opposite side of the finish line. But thanks to that perspective he distinguish something. Something that was catching up quickly to his position.

(Y/N): "Izuku!!!" (Y/N) was that something, he was going almost to the speed of a jet as his four wings were extended. "GRAB ON!!!" He scream for Izuku to be prepared, both guys on reflect of one another, they raised their hands towards each other. It was like they knew what the other was thinking.

Izuku let go of the robot platform, the metal had the convenient direction approximate to a mine, once again like a few moments ago the metal hit the floor with force. At the same exact instance that the two boys got each other hands. There they were, Shoto, Kacchan, Izuku and (Y/N) engulfed by a thunderous sound in company of a pink cloud of smoke.

After a few seconds with no apparent movement, there was something flying full speed out of the smoke, when it finally cleared. Let me just tell you, that it was not a scene that you would watch everyday. Izuku was basically standing, but what was under his feet was not floor, it was (Y/N). Yeah, Izuku was on his friend as if (Y/N) was some source of flying skateboard.

(Imagine that you flying with your wings are the skateboard and Izuku is the kid)

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "We are in a circus and nobody told me?" I think Present Mic was talking in favor of all the presents, who were not expecting this sort of development.

Izuku: "(Y/N), how did we end up like thi..." He was not able to finish his question as he was interrupted, as he had a hard time maintaining his equilibrium.

(Y/N): "Don't ask me, your guess is as good as mine." He said kind of awkwards but still concentrated on the race. "Why is it, that everytime there's a explosion, you are always on the middle?"

Izuku: "I been asking the same thing since I got on U.A...(Y/N) maybe I should get off and..."

(Y/N): "There's no time! Hang on!" He asked all the power he could concentrate on his wings to accelerate. Almost causing his green hair friend to fall down from his back. Izuku kneeled down a little bit as he grab with his right hand (Y/N)'s shirt to make sure not to fall. While our first duo had this development the other two students that were being left behind they stepped up the gas. They had no intention of losing.

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "Eraser Head, your class is amazing! What're you teaching them?!"

Aizawa: (Through the screen) "I didn't do anything... They got each other fired up on their own."

The duo had a few meters of advantage from Shoto and Bakugou. As they finally enter the tunnel where everything was in complete darkness, the only source of light was the end of the tunnel, the entrance to the stadium, the finish line.

Present Mic: (Through the screen) "U.A. sports festival, first-year stage! Not listening! Who could've predicted the developments at the beginning or this conclusion? Right now, the first person or rather people back in the stadium are those men... Izuku Midoriya and (Y/N) Black making a photo finish!" The duo was blasted to the inside of the stadium, when their names were announced, (Y/N) dismantle his wings, obviously resulting on both of them hitting the floor rather hard.

Midoriya's House

Our favorite mother, was having almost a heart attack. The anticipation, the suspense, and the emotion of her two babies winning the race was almost to much for her. As she was spilling tears like water sprinklers, sliding slowly from the sofa to the floor. While the cat Neftis seem to be as well to the edge of her seat as she was laying on her back while raising and moving around a tiny white flag.

Inko: "Izu--ku... (Y/N)..." Poor Inko, it was easy to tell that in this sort of situations are the parents who are much more nervous than the student on question.

Outside the Stadium

On the other hand, many guards and multiple heroes were patrolling the level to make sure the event was safe for both the public and the students. Our attention lands particularly on the hero trio of Kamui Woods, Death Arms, and Mt. Lady. The first two were being responsible of their work, being alert for any sort of chaos. Mt. Lady on the other hand, was posing for a bunch of photographers leaving all the hard work for her companions.

Death Arms: "Hey, those kids..." He turned around to look at the screen above the entrance that they were guarding, a door that had a label with the words "Authorized Personnel Only" as on the television had the word "Winners," showing a photo of both (Y/N) and Izuku.

Kamui: "Oh yeah. If I remember correctly, they are from last year..."

Unknown Location

Shigaraki: "Those brats are..." He was witnessing the Sports Festival through a computer, while doing so, he was scratching his neck with one finger. The typical habit of his when he is going through a emotional crisis.

Back at the Stadium

The crowd was celebrating the winners of the race, at the center of the stadium was raining all sorts of confetti and glitter of multiple colors combine with the cheers of all the presents on the building. Both of the winners were in a conflict of emotions, either shock or adrenaline combine with the euphoria that has been transmitted by the public. Izuku was turn to look at his mentor at the top of all the chairs on the section reserved for all the teachers. All Might was proud of his young boy, applauding his victory and teamwork with his partner. Deku couldn't contain his personality, Deku being Deku, crying by the happiness of having such opportunity.

The only students at the moment that had already crossed the finish line was Izuku, (Y/N), Todoroki, and Bakugou. Although, it was short-lived, the rest of the first years were fighting each other at the tunnel in order to get in front of each other. Kishima pushing over the limit to outrun Tetsu Tetsu and Sero. While Tsuyu and Shoji speeding to the scene side by side, Tsuyu using both arms and legs. Being the case for everyone, having member of multiple classes, being Class A and B forming the major part of the finalists. Clear as day that not all were happy with the result of the race.

Bakugou: "Again...Damn... Damn it!" He was clutching his left arm, he overuse his quirk. Retaining the stress of all the power behind his explosions on his arms.Resulting in a powerful sensation of pain on the muscles of his limbs.

Present Mic: (Through the Television) "And now, they're finishing one after another! We'll make a list of the results later, but for now, good work!

Uraraka: "(Y/N)! Deku! You guys were amazing!" The mochi lover girl was jogging with her last effort to the location of our protagonists that as well as her were trying to regain their breaths.

Izuku: "Uraraka?"

Iida: "I can't believe I fell behind with this quirk..." Iida was having a debate with himself a few meters apart from the reunion of all his friends. His mood was a really gloomy for the moments as he can't believe that he couldn't win on a race with a quirk like him, motors on his legs. "That's so frustrating, dang it!"

Uraraka: "First place is amazing! I still have a long way to go...!" She had her hands closed, neat to her chest in a fire up demeanor. Something that was a little to much for the timid personality of the poor green gentlemen that was still getting use to the fact that girls talk to him, and social contact outside of (Y/N) in general. "(Y/N) you were amazing as w..." Uraraka stopped mid sentence as the boy she was talking to, had walk away from the place a few moments ago.

He was making his way to the entrance of the stadium where most of the new finalist were just reaching. Turning his head to find the person that he was looking for, but suddenly something that enraged every fiber on his body happen. Witnessing how his Deputy Class Rep, Momo, was jogging with clear difficulty as she didn't have any stamina left. But was not caused by the the race or using her quirk. No, this was caused by something else or rather someone...

Momo: "This isn't how it was supposed to..." She was out of breath, having difficulty pronouncing her words. But shortly after her statement we understood the reason as to why she was on that state. At the same time it could be heard a distinctive and kind of maniatic laugh. The source was not other than the perverted purple shorty that everyone hates. Minoru Mineta was holding onto Momo with four sticky balls on her back, taking advantage that Momo's sports shirt zipper was useless. Leaving poor Momo exposed with her black bra.

Mineta: "I killed two birds with one stone! I'm a genius!" He was really proud of himself, getting a major nosebleed from the situation.

Momo: "You're the worst!" It was needless to say that she had multiple thoughts at once. Anger, embarrassment, impotence, disappointment, only to name a bunch of them.

(Y/N): "Momo!" He was smiling, but that smile was hiding a gentle atmosphere towards Momo but the aura changed nature once the sight shifted to Mineta.

Momo: "(Y/N)!!!" She was surprised by the sudden presence of her Class Rep, as her embarrassment and blushed increase, desperately trying to cover herself with her arms. "(Y/N)! Don't look at me! Not like this!"

(Y/N): "Momo, you have a gross pest on your back let me help you!" He used a shadow from under Momo and Mineta morphing it into a giant hand ready to one of the most epic and strongest finger flick in history. Hitting Mineta directly on the face.

Mineta; "DAMN IT!!!" He screamed as he was flicked out of the stadium, he had on his hands both of his sticky balls that were still stuck with Momo's shirt, taking basically the top part of her P.E. Uniform,leaving her only on her black bra.

Momo: "NOOO!" She screamed because she was left with no cover what so ever aside from her bra. Kneeling down in a attempt to make sure no one watch her like that. Specially in front of the whole stadium.

(Y/N): "Here, you can borrow that." He had taken off his shirt placing it on top of her, helping her to get to her feet and taking the time to flip the zipper all the way up. "There, good as new!"

Momo was blushing a playing with her fingers as she didn't know what to do exactly on this situation.

Momo: "Are you sure?" She said kind of timid at the moment as she was inspecting up and down our young protagonist losing herself on a lines of thoughts that were dedicated to the fine specimen of a man that was standing right in front of her.

(Y/N): "Yeah, it's all right. Besides, I LOVE BEING HALF-NAKED IN FRONT OF A AUDIENCE!" He was making fun of the situation by adding a sarcastic remark at the end of his comment.

Next, his jokester personality was hoult as he saw Midnight got on top of the platform once again preparing what it a appears both the results of the obstacle course and the explanation for the next event of the Festival.

(Y/N): "Well, it seems they need us at another place. I would see you later!" He made with his hand a "goodbye" sign as he started to jog close to the platform in question.

Momo: "A-m Good Night!" She was so nervous that she didn't seem to process the words that came out of her mouth. Words that (Y/N) founded funny but didn't beg on the remark. When she realize the words that she pronounce she started to basically curse herself on her minds, as her face was tomato red while steam came out of her ears.

Momo: (In her mind) "Good night?!... Seriously, Momo!... I feel so stupid right now!" She was pulling some strings of her hair in a really comical way. "He gave you his shirt! And you couldn't make us of a proper vocabulary! Now, he probably thinks I'm weird!" Then she turn to look for a second to the shirt that her Class Rep gave her, she made a tiny smile as she was finally able to think clearly on the procedure of the situation. She realize something that made her felt dumber than what she already felt. "I could have make another shirt for him!" That last comment was accompanied by a facepalm, walking totally defeated with a gloomy aura surrounding her.

Midnight: "The first game of the first-year stage is finally over. Although, that the end of the race seem to be a tie between (Y/N) Black and Izuku Midoriya, here is the recording of the moment!" The attention of everyone, both the students and the spectators was moved to the screen Midnight was pointing at, behind her. It showed the video of Izuku using (Y/N) like a skateboard, the footages was in slow motion, emphasizing each movement that was made during the crossing of the finish line. Augmenting the critical moment when the both students enter the stadium. Showing that Izuku was a little inclined forward, exceeding by a few centimeters our protagonist by the great green bush that is his hair. "We have discover our first place of our race! Now look at the results!" The same screen proceed to show the photo of the students in the order they got to the finish line. Making a list of students that took from the first to the number of 42, this quantity was mostly assembled by both Class A and B, and a single students general and support course.

Midnight: "The top 42 made it through to the next round. It's unfortunate, but don't worry even if you didn't make it! We have prepared other chances for you to shine." This last statement was followed by the Sadistic Teacher licking in a very disturbing manner. The action send a chill down the spine of (Y/N) that recall the events before the race took place. "The real competition begins next! The press calvary'll be all over it! Give it your all!" Once again, a screen appears begin Midnight, this presents a roulette. And like last time the spinning of this roulette would decide the next event of the festival. Midnight raised her whip extending her whole arm then lowering with determination. "Now then, here is the second game. I already know what it is, but what could it be? What could it be?" Putting her lenses on her face in a provocative manner as she was going to reveal the game for this next round. "I just said it, and now here it is..." For a few seconds, making a dramatic pause before the Television show a sign that states "Cavalry Battle."

Kaminari: "A cavalry battle? I'm bad a those..." Kaminari was quite sweated, it was clear just how uncomfortable for him the thought of his overall performance for what's to come.

Tsuyu: "It's not an individual event, so I wonder how it'll work..." As is usual for her, showing her curiosity placing her index finger close to her mouth, as well as giving her common unreadable expression.

Midnight: "Let me explain. The participants can form teams of two to four people as they wish." The explanation had on the screen a structure of three people, those three were No. 13, Present Mic, and All Might in his yellow suit. All Might was at the top, Mic on the back, and No. 13 on the front. "It's basically the same as a regular cavalry battle, but the one thing that's different is..." She was saying all this without directly confronting the audience as her body was turned to the screen, her head slightly to the side, explaining everything with a tone that conflicted between flirtiness and laugh, with a smile that was the opposite of kind.

(Y/N): "I'm scared!" I think is pretty obvious why he was so frightened, considering that when something like a sadistic Midnight happens, chaos is about to go down.

Tsuyu: "For the game?" She asked with curiosity as to why someone like (Y/N) would be scared.

(Y/N): "No, Ms. Midnight's expression!"

Midnight: "...based on the results of the last game, each person has been assigned a point value."

Sato: "A point-based system like the entrance exam, huh? That is easy to understand." All the seriousness was placed on Sato's face, he was analyzing as much as he could of the situation.

Uraraka: "In other words, each team is worth different points depending on who's on the team!"

Mina: " I see!" She understood the meaning of the worth for the different positions after our dear Uravity launched her thought to the group.

Midnight: "You guys don't hold back even though I'm talking, huh?" She screamed as she moved her whip violently against the ground. She was pissed that the students couldn't wait for her to finish her explanations. "Yes,that's right! And the points assigned go up by five starting from the bottom. So 42nd place gets five points and 41st gets ten points! And the point value assigned to first place is... Ten Million!"

Everyone: "Ten Million?!" Midoriya was of course the most affected out of everyone else, why? Well, have your head worth ten million points in a competition where every single one of the participants is a ambitious bunch that wants to be number one. I think that answer your question. Needless to say, all the pairs of eyes that were in both the crowd of students and the stadium were all directed to this boy. Some planning his downfall and other praying for his well-being.

Midnight: "That's right! It's survival of the fittest, with a chance for those at the bottom to overthrow the top!
