Everyone had 15 minutes to gather their teammates. While they did that, the rest of the rules were laid out.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uJQ6DqW0F
The headband’s worth is equal to the total points of the horse’s members.
The rider may not equip their headband on any area besides above their neck.
Even if the team loses their headband or their horse crumbles, they’re not out.
Headbands can only be taken physically.
Only the top 6 teams will advance.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwCS8tGNPP
The fourth one was added for those with psychic quirks. After Tatsumaki soloed this entire event, this role was created.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQMYmMA5nf
As for the team formations, Momo was watching as the teams quickly formed.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw2D76ZFm9
Bakugo was pretty popular and ended up with Mina, Kirishima, and Sero.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1f2o6lFzt
Todoroki managed to get those close in his rankings, even if they were in class B. To challenge himself, Ida agreed to join with him alongside Ibara and Honenuki.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIdpyGVsqp
As expected, Aoi teamed up with her closest friends: Kaoru, Shiho, and Sabrina.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyee2GFQmj
Finally, the team Momo was conflicted on. She wanted to join Izuku, but what Ida said to him stuck with her.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy11f96Oa8r
Ida: “Ever since the entrance exam, I’ve been doing nothing but lose to you. You’re an amazing friend, but it’s precisely because of that fact that if I only ever follow you, I’ll never grow myself.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqBQUkUlrW
If she joined with Izuku, would she be preventing her own growth? Shouldn’t she also see him as a rival and challenge him again?
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2BAxQ6IiA
In the end, thanks to her indecision, Izuku formed his team: Kiri, Uraraka, and Tokoyami.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR7pQPk5iq
So where does that leave Momo? Well, not alone, to her pleasant surprise.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvUrOyjYfR
Mei: “Let’s team up!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQxUeBl0GP
Momo: “Huh!?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGB3F3dAL0
That girl from before was right in her face with a manic grin. Momo took a step back from the possibly insane girl.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfGzsnCjzO
Momo: “Team up? With me?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uCdUwdQWB
Mei: “Of course! Your creation in the race was almost as great as my babies! Your quirk is the ability to create things, right!?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7DXhKfoyQ
Momo: “Y-Yes.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVoz9BXbif
Mei: “Excellent! Together, we can create even more amazing babies!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTfh8mkSbP
If the girl’s enthusiasm and invasion of personal space didn’t do it, that statement finished the job and painted Momo’s face red.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfQyrV9Xbx
Momo: “B-Babies? I-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24K4HslKcU
Jiro: “I think she means her support gear.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PA8Uy8TSr
Momo: “Kyoka!?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6weH0o9z4
And alongside her was Denki, who was smiling at Mei’s antics.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6YFFNDizS
Mei: “Correct! I’m Hatsume Mei of the Dept. of support! Not only will we create magnificent babies, but your position will be sure to draw attention to my super cute babies!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBudwxxmt9q
Denki: “Trying to get the attention of some big shot, huh!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UXyAfpXdv
Mei: “Yes!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXK7lSqi7g
Momo: “I see… well, I won’t turn you away if you want to team up with me. Kyoka, did you… find a team?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDryDVa2T1
Jiro: “No, that’s why we’re here. Want to team up?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGYdrwZHtK
Momo: “Y-Yes! Thank you.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDTIC4WPye
Denki: “We should be thanking you. With you, I think we have a chance to win.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHneZ0LGgK
Jiro: “You’re just saying that because she’s the only one that can protect the rest of us from your lightning.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiYNDKoa7w
Denki: “Yeah, but I still want to team up with her.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6ZfuzUXMN
Jiro: “I saw you eyeing Todoroki before I dragged you over here, dummy.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZ5NQanLv7
Regardless of the reasons, Momo is happy that she got a team that believes in her.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9Nfn9sDTv
Momo: ‘This time, for sure. We even teamed up before during the villain attack…’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vsNve0FNM
But it wouldn’t have ended well if not for the Pro Hero Snipe.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFpoMesyJ3
Momo: ‘No, don’t think about it. We can do this.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVL73RxgJPZ
Teams decided and horse formation created, the time had come.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RT5l7JfRu
Present Mic “All right, have you all formed your teams?!! Well, you better have!! Let’s do it!! Let’s start the countdown to vicious clash!!”

24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFaNdjx67x
Bakugo: “We’ve all got-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLSMLCkQQg
Bakugo’s team points: 640
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXQzif3RyC

24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZrTkIQfJZ
Todoroki: “Just one target.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRkFZ09CA8
Todoroki’s team points: 670
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOqZB4zAQG

24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDUQXZtcE5
Izuku and Momo look at their targets from the rider position.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mmBsIegzF
Izuku’s team points: 660
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciu8ff6uSF
Momo’s team points: 425
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmiYlioQwl
START!
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBMxjlZb0u
Kaoru: “Bring it on!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ148H1TBnfA
Aoi’s team points: 10 mil and 475
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXusOxPm9FM
The opening attack was instant; Sabrina’s eyes flashed red in an effort to lock everyone down. But as expected, Izuku counters with his own quirk.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dunaiNksQ
Sabrina: “I’ll keep him distracted. Do your thing, Kaoru.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh4p0xfE8m
Kaoru: “Yeah!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5ZLQlcLn5
But before Kaoru, the front legs of the horse, can charge in, her legs are submerged underground.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBBSw3BTQH
Kaoru: “Houenuki!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8o0zAkCTA
She looks at the approaching Todoroki team and the seemingly guilty Houenuki.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPLssh5ikE
Aoi: “All’s fair and all that?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEUhzNOb1k
Shiho: “Watch out!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMRpaPlJ93
Aoi turns just in time to see Bakugo, off his horse, aiming straight for her headband.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIws5fhoh14
Bakugo: “Die!!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpvjZV2aXp
Right before defeat claimed them, Aoi teleported the entire team feet away.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CYm0KqGP7
Bakugo: “Wha-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEUfXL9WbJ
Before Bakugo falls to the ground, he is retrieved by Sero’s tape.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHCT2dYHVc
Present Mic: “What do we see heeeere!! The rider can detach from the horse!? That’s allowed!?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORIjbUkYEL
Midnight: “It’s only a technical; the rider’s just not allowed to plant their feet on the ground or stay airborne for more than 5 seconds!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmymEVymua
Five seconds is more than enough.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNUdPgmtZr
A flash of green later, and Aoi is once again in danger of losing her headband.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMquur19NG
Sabrina: “Foolish, lock.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvs2Y3SsJD
Izuku is locked in place, right when he was about to grab the headband. He wasn’t fast enough to get the headband and block the lockdown.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJGwY1ztGx
Kaoru: “Just keep him there for 5 seconds!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcenQuooys
Bakugo glares at Deku’s risky maneuver. If Deku loses here, the person Bakugo lost to, what will that say about him? But before the explosive boy can charge in, he feels his headband being taken.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8km7LQERn
Neito: “Like taking candy from a baby, class A.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99nVciCh3Q
Bakugo: “What the fuck, fucking assrag piece of shit motherfucking fuck, give it back!! I’ll kill you!!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVfv6PCq9x
Mina: “We’ve been had!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0pdXZiej0
Neito: “You’re much too focused on the ten million. Not like you could take it from those girls anyway.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjclIVi4RM
Kirishima: “The rest of class-B is surrounding us!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OBuMAmR3X
Neito: “Ah, now that I look at you, aren’t you the victim of the sludge incident? Tell me all about it next time. How it must feel to be attacked by a villain once every year, I mean.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3BGqxg5se
Before Bakugo could explode in anger, another explosion shook the area.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIArSNhfLTO
A bloom of green light enveloped the area.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8CwjjtlyB
Sabrina: “Ugh!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00FOw6pr5Z
Izuku broke out the lock and teleported back to his horse, exhausted.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkSCJUbsaK
Kiri: “Onii!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvjoGHl8gX
Izuku: “Keep… moving!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecPZur9wSs
As for Sabrina, she was forced to her knee, unbalancing the horse.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr0cURrxSX
Kaoru: “Sabrina!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfb7uwv2yyR
Todoroki: “Shiozaki!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKYbYfsR6R
A green vine shot straight for Aoi, and she couldn’t react in time. The vine got the headband and returned to her team.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcs1PHGZwQh
Aoi: “Darn it.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwAQymIRxq
Ibara: “Forgive me, miss Nogami.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo6o5bZ31X
Todoroki doesn’t give them a glance and returns to the battlefield.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsnQXOoOme
Sabrina: “I’m sorry too. He… was stronger than I expected.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FXVEqjPbA
Kaoru: “It’s not over yet! Come on!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNq0IKKh9t
The once top team returns to the battlefield. Neito and Bakugo saw the whole thing. Bakugo couldn’t help but laugh at the turn of events.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1DhO3EOCi
He’ll be sure to take that headband from halfnhalf, but for now… he’s free to enact some payback.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6KUedy8UA
Bakugo: “Kirishima, change of plans. Before Todoroki and Deku, let’s send these goddamn shitstains to some early graves!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM54raAVu3V
Neito gulps at the enraged Bakugo but keeps a calm facade up. After all, he’s sure his class can turn this around once more.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHnqCYeB5Q
Back to the Todoroki, his team has become the target. But as long as he can keep the ten million, he wins.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTfKbhcBJx
Kaoru: “Stand still!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2blRtebFpB
Thanks to Ida’s speed and Honenuki’s softening, they are able to avoid most attacks. Aoi is constantly teleporting out of the softening, and Izuku’s team has to defend against the vines from Ibara.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQkO6hyMhM
At this rate, time will run out and Aoi’s team will be at the bottom.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi7hNzziJn
Sabrina: “I may need to-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJeJUiPoyv
Kaoru: “No! Save it for later. I got this. Aoi, get ready, I’m going all in.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcYlWwUdfN
Aoi: “Right!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WZ4w4T98d
Kaoru focuses while building up energy and enveloping her friends with protective shields.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiR8yNJPSQ
Meanwhile, Dark Shadow knocks away more vines while Izuku prepares once more to teleport.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfTHuRj80y
Izuku: “Don’t worry, they don’t have anyone that can stop me. Kiri, Uraraka, are you ready?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaaBFrYG4G
Kiri, the front, nods while tensing her legs.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDKA3zp4Wh
Uraraka: “Yep!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCp0I6eLUw
Grasping his chance, Izuku teleports again. Todoroki sees it coming, but it doesn’t change the fact he can barely react to it. Izuku appears behind him, aiming for the one million around his neck.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPrbwGn9YN
Instinctively, Todoroki uses his flaming side to try and deter Izuku. But being an esper, Izuku is able to mentally push aside his arm and grab one of the headbands around Todoroki’s neck before teleporting away.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jkKH4J8P1
Todoroki: ‘My left side… what am I doing!?’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYRdiniEeh
Ida: “Todoroki!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIhqqUemcX
Still frozen by what he did, he was blindsided by Izuku’s strategy.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhTFJFljuM
Kiri was already moving when Izuku teleported. She was much faster thanks to Uraraka making their team weightless. Tokoyami dealt with the vines while Kiri charged forward into position.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nCwaivryF
Izuku teleported back onto his team, perfectly on time to snatch another headband from the other side of Todoroki.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2AKzvtMX9
Izuku: “Got it!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w40EfH8Sn
Kiri kept the monument with a smile. But that’s when Kaoru saw her chance.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx0wxY782w
Kaoru: “Charge!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkf0BffIui
A blinding red light caught Izuku off guard and even shrunk Dark Shadow. The next instant, Izuku felt his headband come off.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYU7UDlhQN
Aoi: “Thanks for your contribution.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHDZwg6U4p
Before Kiri could turn the horse around to face their enemies, Aoi had already teleported away.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFqYF5zu3Y
Kiri: “Tch.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsQPzZaAyf
Uraraka: “It’s okay, we got the ten million.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxUbP5a9BM
Izuku: “No, we didn’t.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡba1JZ84aIW
The esper looked at the headbands he got and saw numbers other than ten million.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0xzIscrad
Izuku: “It must still be on his neck. He shuffled them around.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbptZkzAFu7
Ida: “Pull your wits about you, Todoroki!! That was dangerous! And we’re not safe yet!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xdYSnnfrO
Todoroki snaps out of it and sees Izuku’s and Aoi’s team charging him. He also hears explosions coming from above. He breathes cold air, ready to freeze them and collect their headbands afterwards.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBvq44pFXO
Present Mic: “TIME UP!!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VumwhJzX6
Bakugo fell out of the sky while Izuku squeezed his eyes in frustration. It was over.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMETOwVxkP
Aoi: “Darn, we only ended up with Midoriya’s 660 headband.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP36DibJyw
Kaoru: “That’s not too bad.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlWfbVdiy6
Sabrina: “We could have done better.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWQF4DznWq
Shiho: “Don’t blame yourself, Sabrina.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QksFON8p7
Sabrina: “I’m not. I’m only stating the fact that we could have done better.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1RFPSx2Hw
She looks at Izuku and narrows her eyes.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1Pdd8HfBk
Sabrina: ‘Shame, I would have liked to challenge him again.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3UqFAIZgg
Present Mic: “Now shall we see who our top 6 are!?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtg2xs0aZD
1. Team Todoroki
2. Team Yaoyorozu
3. Team Bakugo
4. Team Shinsou
5. Team Nogami
6. Team Midoriya
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdwidrxaeo
Sabrina: ‘Ah, never mind.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWQXvTHhRB
Midoriya breathed a sigh of relief.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNHxTdMi5v
Uraraka: “We made it!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuoj9G3nFX
Kiri: “Ih.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡis0uIYQAZ3
Tokoyami: “Indeed. Yaoyorozu’s team is a surprise, however.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPuuTwU2LH
Izuku looks at Momo and sends her mental congratulations.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn4cr5nVZz
Izuku: “Great job, Yaoyorozu!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nw7kLgXyo
Momo: “M-Midoriya! T-Thank you, but I still missed first place. I was so focused on gathering extra headbands that I missed my chance to go for the ten million.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDZ28QOQS9
Izuku: “That’s fine! It was chaotic anyway; you made the right choice to stay out of it.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qwlfggzdq
Momo: “… I suppose.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJUfbCuYeg
Mei: “What are you spacing out for?!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aiEhunN8T
Momo: “O-Oh, sorry Hatsume.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ714qbAXjDT
Mei: “This was a great chance to test some of my babies, but we didn’t get to shine as much as I liked. I need to make up for it with the next event!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4u4jgGnfq
Momo: “I-I’m sorry.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP79mxLCq8p
Jiro: “Ignore her, it’s fine, Momo. If we did it her way, we may not have made it.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhuqPBGnbf
Momo: ‘You don’t think we could have won either… ’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1lo3pietq
As for Todoroki, he glares at his accursed arm.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzq6ugMNmy
Todoroki: ‘I said I’d never use it. I made a promise to myself. But when I was threatened…’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zPNa44Q5u
Todoroki: “I… I can’t let it go on like this… this is exactly what he wants…”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSHAww16BL
Present Mic: “The next event will be after lunch break! See you then!!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuRtlUEtvn
He turns to Izuku and walks towards him. There is much to discuss.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uMdUZywQc
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDBZicdsFC
Kiri: ‘So close… ’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x1ydcqCyV
She and her onii-chan were so close to failure. She could have reacted better to Akashi. She could have insisted on being on top instead; maybe then Izuku would have put himself at risk.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQIwOKfDmk
Maybe if she were on top, she could have gotten the ten million.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNPSb7hSEs
Kiri: ‘No.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1UG6z398r
There is no point in thinking about the past. She’ll do better next time. He needs her to be better.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKwcd1KohX
Kiri: “Onii, let’s-”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgqaPe9TmD
Kiri: ‘Gone?’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKJiDLaMvC
Uraraka: “Where’s Midoriya?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6wbFi6tfp
Kiri: ‘It seems I’m not the only one wondering. But I’m the only one that can find him.’
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzS8hx4PR6
Kiri slips from the group heading to the mess hall and follows Izuku’s psychic signature. It didn’t take her long; it was in one of the hallways.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA9TkBIMiv
But it would seem she wasn’t the only one who knew how to find her brother.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaAaUCumMk
Kiri: “Bomb boy.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxixwFXlBN
Bakugo: “Tch, ghost girl.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dIDUsccLi
The two glare at each other, but before they can throw any verbal blows, they hear Izuku.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeq7rIUiR8
Izuku: “So… what is it? What do you want to tell me? If we stay too long, it will get crowded.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vb4R6y5fe
Seeing that their objective is the same, the two call a truce, lean against the wall and listen.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx1v3nYfb5
Todoroki: “Your quirk… overwhelmed me enough to force me to break my pledge. I’m… one of the few to have seen your full power. That power and the quirk your sister has, they both remind me of people we both know.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0xkIyHijs
Izuku: “… What are you trying to say?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf78EUF3TH
Todoroki: “I just find you and your sister interesting. I know you’re related to Tornado, and Tae is apparently adopted. More than that, you both caught All Might’s eye. Which leads me to my question; is your sister All Might’s Illegitimate child, and did he ask the number two hero to take care of it?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmhXFsrqbd
Izuku: “… Huh?!”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJK8mK3x9V
Bakugo looks at Kiri with wide eyes; considering her strength, it might not be far off. But Kiri shakes her head violently, denying such ridiculous claims.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJicjClE7FT
Izuku: “That’s not it at all! Their quirks may seem similar, but I promise you that is not the reason.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupAuqrvQPe
Todoroki: “The way you said that, ‘That’s not it’. In other words, there is a connection between you all. Something you can’t talk about. Whatever that might be, you must know about my father, Endeavor.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndoKtiruUJ
Izuku: “… I do.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfCXvUcepi
Todoroki: “He was the number two hero forever, and then your sister comes in and drops him to third place. You’re not only connected to the person who did that, but to All Might, the person he wants to surpass more than anything. Because of this, I need to win all the more.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dkzVBRQbi
That’s when Todoroki revealed his past. His father, the quirk marriages, and his mother…
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpF8siujqJ
Todoroki: “I’ll become number one, a hero, without needing to use his quirk. This is my total disavowal of him.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi5AwnNL2I
Izuku and the two eavesdroppers stood shocked at his reason for reaching for number one. They all have different reasons for becoming a hero.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtPvsLmTyx
To be the best.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEOCDBWSm7
To be a hero like All Might.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHe27ufzqG
To stand alongside their family.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17mCLGZhxk
But those reasons feel… shallow somehow when compared to Todoroki’s. However, that won’t stop them from fighting and reaching that coveted pedestal.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6JQD22VaR
Todoroki: “If you can’t tell me anything, that’s fine. You two can keep being All Might’s something-or-other. I’ll overcome you two using only my right side.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9WpHTCYiA
Izuku: “My… reason for reaching number one may not be as good as yours. I want to be like All Might, to stand next to my sisters with pride. I need to… master and… control my quirk for that to happen.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzFEDzKyM9
Izuku: “It may be a poor, and maybe even a selfish motive compared to yours. Even so, I can’t lose. For those that believe in me, to pay back my family for taking care of me when I was quirkless. So I’ll echo your declaration of war.”

His eyes glow green as he stares into Todoroki’s.

Kiri closes her eyes and smiles at his words. She won’t disappoint him either; she’ll try her best. As for Bakugo, his gaze is blank so as not to give anything away to Kiri.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4UaSMbhjS
But deep down, very deep down, he can respect Izuku for his words. That won’t change the end result, though.

Bakugo: ‘I’ll be the one to win this with a complete victory. I’ll be number one.’

Bakugo goes to leave for the mess hall. His movement catches Kiri’s eye.

Bakugo: “I’m leaving. There is nothing else to see.”

He shakes his head when hearing that rare voice. Out of all the main ones, his hurt Izuku’s head the most. So many strange voices overlayed onto the main sickening one.He always comes around when Izuku wants to do something creative or expand his mental abilities.

Izuku: ‘I have to get this under control. I miss Phoenix; she was so much simpler. But I can’t see her until I master this phase… apparently.’

Tatsumaki: “That being said, I still expect you two to come out on top in the next event. Sabrina seems like a glass cannon; overwhelming force may help. That Akashi girl is strong but she is reckless, I’m sure you two can outsmart her.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVz4BBy7Oz
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuE41crcAG
Izuku: “R-Right. We can do it.”

Fubuki still remembers the look she received from her older sister when she failed to get first place in the festival. Tatsu tried to soften it, but she could feel the disappointment.

She takes a breath and pushes those memories down.

This was it, the last chance to claim the number one spot and impress the agencies watching. But with five espers in the running, how good are their chances really?
