Sports Festival. (Part 4)

{POV Ryuu.}

"It seems as if we have a strategy forming on the field as two groups are trying to cut off the ten million point headband and his warhorse!! While another is charging right at them!! Oh, what's this? It seems as if ice has started to spread trying to seal their escape and officially cut them off." Present Mic enthusiastically gave the play by play making the entire stadium burst out in cheer and insanity.

"Fumikage, use dark shadow and break this pathetic excuse of ice. Mei, Tsuyu just continue to watch our blindsides. It'll be impossible for them to take what doesn't belong to them in the first place." I said in a relaxed manner with a small smile on my face.

You know it's the simple things in life that you have to enjoy. Sure a challenge is always a fun option, but when you think about it. Presenting your own neck to a tiger isn't what I'd call a challenge. That's just suicide.

"You know Shoto. If you really wanted to talk all you had to do was ask. As well, this is kinda pathetic don't you say. I mean you're not even fully utilizing your ability? Now why is that I wonder?" I started to tease Shoto a little with a small amount of amusement in my voice.

"Besides, my headband is absolutely worthless if you think about it. All it is, is a baiting tactic from the teachers. I mean look around. Even the other students from even 1-B are smarter since they are completely ignoring us. So why don't we-"

I wasn't able to finish as I tilted my head slightly to dodge an icicle that barely scratched the side of my cheek. Before freezing the blood that came out.

"Well that was rather rude of you. I was talking." I said in a cold tone which made the other students on Shoto's side flinch a little.

"I don't need to listen to what you say. Nor do I need to prove anything to you. Now the time has come. I'll be taking that headband that you call worthless." Shoto said with fire in his voice.

Oh so he is trying to prove something to someone then. Well, I wonder whom.

"Well since you're so desperate for it then why don't you try to take what doesn't belong to you in the first place. I mean if you can try." I said as I increased the weight of my war domain by a couple percent. "Besides I doubt you'll be able to move any further from your spot since even your warhorse seems to be breaking down. Or seem to be struggling."

"Now with less than half the time on the clock!! In the midst of a fierce competition the main event for this event is heating up. Upon whose head shall rest those ten million points."

Present Mic announced what time remained as I saw the look start to change in Shotos eyes as a fierce look started to spread.

I saw Momo had started to create something while Denki started to laugh a little. I was impressed by their do or die attitude as they continued to advance.

They continued to get close until I noticed small sparks started to spread from Denki as Shoto spread a cloth over themselves.

"Everyone jump now." I said in a firm tone as we leapt into the air.

"Time to fly, let's go backwards." Mei shouted shamelessly as we flew backwards, showing off her super cute babies. Dark Shadow even tried to help by blocking the discharge from Denki.

Mei started to laugh as she looked around the crowd. Tsuyu was a little shocked by Shotos decision. While Fumikage frowned a little as he focused more on Denki.

"Smart move."

It was a smart move as they were able to attack the other teams. Even the two groups they gathered to help them. As they started to take the headbands from the shocked groups as Shoto froze them to the ground.

"Well would you look at that I'll admit it was a smart move. But also easily avoidable. Now let's see what else your brain can come up with, Shoto." I even clapped a little.

"Fumikage, just defend when you can. The pressure they're facing is something you're all familiar with. We just need to wear them out before the time runs out."

Everyone agreed as they nodded their heads as we defended against Shotos' advancement. It was quite easy to avoid them as well. All we did was go to the opposite side of Shotos ice.

"There's only about a minute left!! And Todoroki has set the field in ice, surrounding Ryuu's group. All that's left is taking those ten million points!! Will it end in an instant or will something unexpected happen!?!" Present Mic continued to announce as the time for the cavalry battle was coming to a close.

Well it has been fun playing defensive the entire time, gathering information and learning the strengths and weaknesses of the others abilities.

And how much they're able to handle my war domain this entire time.

I saw an unquenchable fire in the eyes of Momo.

Ida had a look on his face as if he was proving something.

While Denki… Denki seemed fried.

"Just give it up, Shoto. Time is almost over and if you look at the score it's already been determined who's in first place." I smiled as I spread my hands.

But instead of backing off, I saw a fire ignite in Idas eyes before they quickly charged towards us with the speed of a freight train.

I smiled as I was impressed with how Ida used his ability but I was easily able to dodge Shotos' attempt to swipe my headband from my head. Sure I found the damn thing worthless, but I'm also not gonna allow someone to take what belongs to me.

"That was an impressive last ditch attempt there, you have my praise. Still it seemed as if…" I paused as I noticed a change started to form in Shotos' eyes. As I saw the other half of his body start to produce flames.

Then I saw the looks of surprise and shock on Shoto's teammates' faces.

"Shit, Fumikage, get the others away from him now!!" I yelled out as we charged forward as the look in Shoto's face started to warp slightly. "Mei, Tsuyu, ignore the others and focus on Shoto. And take him out!" I yelled out in a firm manner as I canceled my war domain.

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement as they also saw the looks of fear and worry spread on Momo and Ida's faces. Denki… Well, Denki was still sorta out of it.

But the moment I canceled my war domain it seemed as if Shoto regained some coherent thought as he quickly stopped himself from producing anymore flames. As looks of relief spread across Shoto's teammates.

I even saw a look of extreme disappointment in Shoto's eyes.

"WHAAAA!!!??? What happened!! That was amazingly fast!! Ida why didn't you use that super acceleration in the preliminaries!!? Still that was one hell of an attack as they seemed to almost grab that headband worth ten million points to take the lead!!" Present Mic screamed out loud as the roar of the crowd followed right after.

"Just what was that! You spineless coward! If I had an ability like that I wouldn't hesitate to master it or use it!" I spoke with anger in my voice as I stared down Shoto as a look of anger and frustration took over his face.

We continued to stare each other down ignoring the remaining students as they battled it out as Present Mic started the final ten second countdown to officially end the event and move on.

"It seems that this is the end to that explosive and amazing cavalry battle!! Now let's see who our top four are!? In first place, Team Ryuu!! In second place, Team Bakugou with a surprise takeover at the final second!! In third place we have Team Todoroki who continued to entertain us with that awesome final battle!!"

Then everything went quiet as it seemed Present Mic and Aizawa were tongue tied. I was curious as to why, but when I looked at the monitor that showed the score I understood.

Well, well, well.

"In fourth place it seems as if we also have another last minute take over as Team Shinsou came in from nowhere!!?" Present Mic exclaimed with noticeable surprise.

But when I saw Shinsou's teammates they were just as surprised as Present Mic and Aizawa it seemed. Which drew my interest as I started to wonder how a kid from the general education department was able to completely remain hidden.

Present Mic then quickly announced that there would be an hour lunch break before the next event.

I even noticed Deku crying again, releasing once again an impressive amount of waterworks that left a small puddle. Uraraka didn't even seem fazed by his behavior as she tried to imitate Idas legs with her arms while complimenting him.

"I'm not gonna lie, I was quite amazed by your choice of teammates Bakugou. What made you pick Deku and Uraraka? I thought you detested Deku." I asked Bakugou as a small smile spread on his face.

"Well during the two weeks of hell, you mentioned that something seemed to revolve around Deku so I thought I'd give it a try. And believe me or not… you weren't wrong, Ryuu." Bakugou said with a look of interest and curiosity in his eyes.

"Well ancient be damned. It's either his damn ability or something else entirely. As your guess would be as good as mine." I said with a look of curiosity that started to spread on my face as well.

"But why did you choose Uraraka?" I said as I pushed Deku's interest to the side for a moment.

"I didn't, she came up to me with Deku while Eijiro arrived right after and we teamed up." Bakugou said as he spread his hands.

I nodded my head as everyone from the hell training started to go and grab a bite to eat and await the next event.
