11-12

Chapter 11

"GODDAMN THAT GAIJIN!" Bakugo's fists spark with barely contained mini explosions, veins clearly visible in the whites of his eyes.

How?! How could Deku and that Gaijin beat me?! I won't let this pass! If one were to look closely, they'd almost see steam billowing from Bakugo's ears from sheer anger. Todoroki remains as stoic as ever but inside, he's churning. So… seems I underestimated Midoriya and ignored how much a threat Parker is. I will not make the same mistake again. He swears to himself.

The crowd is still going wild as the remainder of the participants make their way to the finish line.

"THE CONTESTANTS ARE POURING IN ONE AFTER THE OTHER ! LET'S HEAR A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR ALL OUR COMPETITORS AS WE PREPARE THE RESULTS!" Present Mic announces.

Peter gets out the way as Ochaco comes panting in and calling for Izuku. "Deku! That was amazing! And you too Parker-kun, I can't believe you too tied for first place I'm so jealous!"

Izuku is already a blushing mess, "O-oh uh thank you! I-It was nothing."

Peter smirks, "I'm just happy you're not a sore loser like warhead over there." His thumbs points over his shoulder to the smoldering Bakugo.

The webhead also notices Tenya mumbling to himself, "… Or our esteemed class representative."

Surprisingly Momo is the next to appear, her shirt was open revealing her fit torso and substantial bosom. Once again Peter silently thanks himself for working out a way to allow himself to wear his mask to hide where his eyes went. But he's broken from his somewhat perverted thoughts as he realizes that Momo seems worn out more than usual. He makes his confusion known, "I didn't realize you expended so much stamina for this race alone?"

She leans on her knees trying to catch her breath, "Not (pant) because of my quirk."

A creepy high-pitched laugh draws Peters attention to a certain someone attached to Momo's back. "Haha! Two birds with one stone, I'm a genius!"

A swell of annoyance rises in Peter's chest and he roughly web yanks the pervert off the vice representatives back, "Get off her you damn creep!"

The purple headed midget groans as he rolls in a heap. Inside Peter is somewhat shocked that he allowed himself to be so annoyed he let his super strength seep through his control, by Mineta of all people. Why am I so annoyed? By Mineta of all people… is this jealousy? Nooo! What'd I got to be jealous of by the creep!

"Thanks for that, now I feel like rooting for the pervert to make it to one on one battles just so I can teach him a lesson." Her voice laced with venom.

Peter snorts, "I can already picture you using a cannon on him."

"I was thinking something a little more painful but that's a suitable plan B."

"Dammit I can't think of a good cannon joke, give me like 5 minutes! Ten tops!"

Mom gives him a deadpanned look, "Please… take your time."

"I share in Yaoyorozu's lack of enthusiasm for your bad jokes Parker-kun." His frog powered classmate comments.

"(Sigh) Thanks Tsu, I can always count on your brutal honesty."

"You're welcome!" she replies sarcastically.

Midnight takes the stage and snaps her whip sharply, gaining the crowds attention, for more reasons than one. "The first game for the first years is finally over and what a game it was! Now let's take a quick look at the standings, shall we?"

A large hologram materializes over the crowd, showing the placements of all contestants. Tied in first place is of course, Peter Parker and Izuku Midoriya! Followed by Todoroki taking second place, Bakugo third, Ibara in 4th, and so on. Peter is still proud of taking first place even if it was tied. I think this may be the first time I've gotten first place in a race in my entire life!... which is pretty sad when I think about it now. Wow I was kinda of a loser growing up wasn't I?

"Only the first 42 will move on to the next round! But don't be too let down if you didn't make the cut. We've prepared other opportunities for you to shine!" she grins slyly and licks her lips, making the American teen nervous.

He leans to his green haired friend, "Seriously is this appropriate."

"Shh." Izuku is fully focused on what's being said next.

"Now the real fun is about to begin, the chance to fully move yourself into the limelight! Give it your best!"

Bakugo growls intensely, impatient for the announcement.

Midnight snaps her whip again and the hologram displays a roll call, "Let's see what we have in store for you next. Will your wildest fantasies come true?"

The students are holding their breaths, some shaking in anticipation, others, like Mineta, biting their nails nervously as Midnight continues, "What could it be? The waiting is torture."

And so is your sexual innuendos.

She places her lenses on her face, "Prepare yourselves, FOR THIS!"

The hologram finally stops and the words, CAVALRY BATTLE, is displayed, causing the crowd to erupt once again in their excitement.

The students murmur, "Cavalry battle? I'm terrible at those." Kaminari laments.

Tsu places her finger on her chin thoughtfully, "Huh it's not an individual event? I wonder how they'll split us up."

The pair pointedly ignores the bouncing Mineta as he blushes and makes his happiness known.

Midnight seems to begin answering all the students questions, "Allow me to explain, the participants will form teams of two-to-four people as they see fit. In theory it's seen as a regular playground game." There goes that dangerous glint in her eyes, " But there is one difference. Each player has been assigned a point value based on the results from the obstacle course."

Peter rubs his chin, "Oh so kinda like the entrance exams, so the higher the points the better off we'll be." He claps Izuku's back, "Good thing we got first place huh?"

Ochaco is thinking more or less the same thing, "So that means each team will have a different point value based on which students are on it."

Mina just smiles at her, "Uh huh!"

Many students flinch when Midnight snaps her whip hard enough for most of the students in the front rows to feels the wind on their face, "Maybe you should shut up and let me explain things to you!"

Satisfied that she's regained everyone's attention she continues, "Now then, the point assignments go up by increments of five, starting from the bottom. For example, 42nd place is worth five points and 41st is worth 10. And the point value assigned to the first place contestants is… 5 MILLION EACH!"

"Hey hey that's awesome! We got the most points out of everyone Midoriya!" Peter is celebrating and smiling widely but is put off when he realizes his friend is wearing a look of pure terror.

"Uhh… Midoriya? You ok buddy? Crap did I say something wrong in Japanese?"

"5-5 million?" his friend whispers.

Peter's confusion remains as Midnight comments, "Normally the first place contestant would be awarded 10 million but after some consideration it was decided that splitting the score would… spice things up." She gives the crowd a saucy smirk, making quite a few crowd members swoon.

The rest of the students all gaze hungrily at the two boys, with Izuku feeling the weight of their stares while Peter… is still confused.

"Um… why is everyone staring at us?"

Izuku shakes his head and looks at his neighbor in disbelief, "Didn't you read the the event summary I sent you?!"

Peter scratches the back of his neck sheepishly, "I-I skimmed it." He admits.

His friend buries his face into his hands with an exasperated groan, "I don't know why you're freaking out."

"Because we have the most points!"

"Uh huh isn't that a good thing?"

"No! If we have the most points then everyone will be after us!"

"So we just team up and avoid everyone."

"We can't team up, it's against the rules! And since everyone wants our points—"

Realization dawns on Peters face as he understands why they're all staring at him and Izuku. "They're less inclined to teaming up with us… oh."

Midnight sways her whip alluringly over her shoulder, "That's right. It's survival of the fittest, with a chance for those at the bottom to overthrow the top!"

"… Well shit."

Queens New York

Kong and Flash sit in the latters living room, absentmindedly watching the UA Sports Festival. As they mindlessly eat popcorn Kong comments,

"Hey you think the Peter Parker in UA is our Peter Parker?"

Flash looks up in wonder, "Naaahh, no way Puny Parker could be a pro in anything. Other than a pro loser!"

Kong snorts at Flash's terrible joke, "huh huh, 'Pro loser', good one!"

"Hey Kaminari how about we—"

"Nope!"

"Uhhhh hey Shoji think we can—"

"I think it's better that I don't."

Peter drops his shoulders in rejection. For the past 10 minutes he and Izuku have been trying to find others that would be willing to join their team in the cavalry battle… with spectacularly poor results. At first he was beginning to lose hope when he runs into,

"MOMO! I-I mean Yaoyorozu! Look I know I have 5 million and there's a target on my back—"

"Sure."

"But I would really appreciate it if you—huh? You'll help me?"

"Yes, strategically speaking your spider sense will be very difficult if not impossible to outmaneuver especially within the circumstances of the game. Added with your reflexes and agility, I'd say it'd be a much more guaranteed victory siding with you than any other team."

Peter falls to his hands and knees, bowing to her in relief, "Oh thank you so much! Now if only anyone else would it see this way!"

Suddenly he looks up in time to see Mei Hatsume walking by, "Mei! Hey Mei what doya say we team up!"

"Oh Parker-san I'd love too! But remember when I needed help making my babies!"

Peter begins experiencing a cold sweat, "No…"

Yaoyorozu raises an eyebrow, "Making babies?"

"Had you helped I might've been more inclined to aid you here buuuut…"

"Oh Hatsumi please I'm begging you!"

"Sorry Parker but the babies I made need their time to shine and something tells me I'll have a much more enjoyable show with Izuku so byeeeeeeeeee!"

"(Sigh) Of all the rotten luck."

Yaoyorozu comes up next to him, "'Making babies?'"

Peter rolls his eyes while blushing, "She calls her inventions babies and yes she uses that term way too liberally in the worst moments."

"Ok then." Mom relents, a nagging feeling in her chest but otherwise she ignores it.

"Still who can we go to for one last member?"

"I can do it!"

The cheerful sounds of Mina Ashido washes over them as she bounds to the pair, her trademark wide smile on full display, "Really?!"

"Yup! With moves like yours Parker I know we'll win!"

"Are you angel?"

Mina smirks and feigns shyness, "Oh Parker, flirting before a battle? How forward of you!"

He starts stammering, "I-I-I didn't mean it like that!"

"So what am I a monster?!" she now feigns anger.

"No! No of course not!"

"Enough teasing Parker Ashido please we need to strategize!" a slight edge to the vice representatives voice.

One that Mina picks up on with a smirk, very interesting!

"Alright then we got a team, let's strategize people!"

"I believe I should take the right wing, my quirk will allow me to better handle defense." Momo declares.

Peter nods in agreement, "That's a good idea, and Mina your quirk is good for offense as well as mobility so we can use it in conjunction with my webs incase we need to make any sharp course corrections."

"You can count on me!" she gives him a wink and thumbs up.

"Alright guys, um sorry about having you carry me and all, it's kinda embarrassing." He mumbles apologetically.

Mina waves off his concerns, "It's no bother, I think I like the view of you on top."

She grins inwardly at her remark and it's effects. Peter is a blushing and sputtering mess while Momo is giving her an appalled death glare. "Mina! That- That's highly inappropriate!"

She shrugs, "Is it? I'm sorry, maybe I can make it up to you Peter."

She gets in close to Peter who leans back, his face matching the color read of his mask. She yelps slightly as Momo pulls her back somewhat roughly, "Focus on winning the match!" she scolds.

Surprising the three with the aggression of her actions. Why am I so annoyed by Mina? She flirts with everyone as a joke! The recommended student refocuses on the task at hand and they get into formation. All teams preparing themselves as the countdown for the match begins,

"You two ready?"

"Yes!" Momo states as she gets into a running pose, skates adorned on her feet.

"You bet!" Mina replies brightly, determination etched into her gleeful expression.

Peter adjusts his webshooters, "let's do this!"

Present Mic starts to fire up the crowd once more, "OKAY ALL YOU FIRST YEARS! I hope you're happy with your chosen teams! Let's get this party started! One final countdown before the game starts!"

"3!"

Bakugo cracks his knuckles, "Get em!"

"2!"

"Tetsutetsu." Monoma calls, "No hard feelings, okay?"

Said teen just grunts in return.

"1! BEGIN!"

For the first second, no one makes a move. But suddenly Peter's spider sense tingles and he dodges out the way of Asui's tongue. "Start moving!"

The two girls grunt as they carry Peter out the way, bobbing and weaving as all the teams start chasing after the two who made it to first place. A floating head band being carried by Sato and Jiro, both blushing, heads towards the trio. "Hahaha! I'll be taking that headband Parker!"

"Quick, Mina use acid on your feet!"

She does so and Peter holds Momo up from the floor easily while shooting a web to their left, yanking the three out the way quickly thanks to Mina's quirk. Hagakure yelps as her team crashes into another that was just behind the Parker squad.

"Miss me! Miss me! Now you gotta—actually forget that part Ojiro'll get mad at me!"

He lets Momo down and she seamlessly returns into a run in step with Mina.

"Nice thinking Parker-kun!"

"Hey you got good reflexes too!"

Spider sense goes off and he looks to his right just in time to see Momo conjure a shield that blocks the blast Bakugo sent right at them. She grunts and stumbles as a bit but Mina and Peter help her correct herself, "He's not holding back!"

Peter rolls his eyes as Bakugo shouts expletives at him, "Of course he isn't."

"What do you wanna do Parker-kun?" Mina asks.

"Hm." He smirks. "Head right at them!"

Momo scrunches her brow, "You want us to charge them?"

"I got an idea!"

"… Is it to piss off Bakugo?"

"It's to piss off Bakugo."

"(sigh) Fine."

The two change their directions and right to the explosive hero in training.

"Hey Bakugo, does this sound familiar? 'I'LL KILL YOU SCUM!'"

The sudden change was enough to throw off the blonde who truly wasn't expecting them to come at him. Peter whispers to his teammates, "When I say to, break off and join up behind them."

They nod and just as they're closing in and Bakugo readies his arms to blast, Peter vaults off the pair who run on either side of the Bakusquad. Surprise is littered across all their faces as mid front flip in the air, Peter shoots his webs from above, Catching Bakugo in both hands. Peter then sticks the webs onto Bakugo goes back, pinning his arms like a straight jacket and gracefully lands back onto Mina and Mom who had joined up behind the team ready to catch their leader.

Bakugo stares dumbfounded at his bound arms before growling, veins popping out his entire head, "YOU FUCKING BASTARD!"

He shouts back at a laughing Peter. "Well you got him mad." Mina comments, giggling while watching Bakugo blow off the webs and his shirt and sending volley after volley after the 3.

"Oh he makes it so enjoyable!"

Momo rolls her eyes, "I'm surrounded by children."

"You're the same age as us!" Peter retorts.

She just gives him a withering look.

Mirko blinks, "Wow, if he doesn't make it as a pro hero he could always start up a one man circus act."

Tony snorts as he sips on a cup of water, "As if I'd ever let him stoop so low."

"He'd still never sink to your level."

"Which is still above your height." Tony retorts, earning a glare from the bunny themed hero.

Back at the cavalry battle Peter feels the base of his skull tingle and the hair on his arms rise. He searches the battlefield and his eyes bug out as he sees Kaminari charging up, no doubt ready to use his electrical power at full strength "Momo make an insulation sheet!"

"On it!"

Her stomach glows and a large sheet flies out. Peter quickly grabs it and throws it onto them and they all huddle down just in time as Kaminari yells, "Indiscriminate shock! 1.3 million volts!"

The students all scream as electricity courses through their bodies, Jiro could be heard yelling, "Kaminari!" like if it was a curse word.

Once his spider sense stops tingling Peter peeks out the blanket and sees almost all the students in a daze. "Boy am I lucky you're on my team Mo-Yayorozu!"

"It's ok you can call me Momo." She says, not because he calls Mina by her first name mind you.

"Well well if it isn't the upstarts of class 1-A."

Peter raises an eyebrow at a smarmy and smirking blonde who's twirling a headband in his hand. "And you're…. someone."

The blonde lets out a mirthless snort, "It's ok, I'm not offended at the fact the pompous students of 1-A wouldn't bother to get to know those they deem beneath them."

"When the hell did I say that?" he quietly asks his friends, to which they shrug.

"But I assure you, you're time in the spotlight is ending soon, and quite spectacularly I'm afraid." Monoma states with all the smugness he could muster.

"I mean technically we're all in the spotlight since this is televised."

"Your class is too small minded—"

"Oh ok ignore me then."

"You all need to—hey where are you going!?"

Peter and the others were already heading the other way, completely ignoring the monologue Monoma was about to deliver, angering him greatly. "After them! I'll teach them to ignore me!"

He doesn't hear his teammates mutter, "We wish we could ignore you."

Using the quirk of one of his classmates, he liquefies the ground ahead of him, slowing down Peters team in the mush. Mina grunts as she tries to free her feet.

"What is this stuff?!"

"I think it's the ground, somehow he's making the molecular bonds in the solid matter malleable!" Momo informed them after a quick analysis of the situation.

"Dammit what can we d—"

Peter feels a hand come near him and he quickly moves his head out the way, holding the bandana in place and out of Monoma's grasp. He does feel his hand lightly touch his arm though. Peter gets on the defensive but is taken aback by the weird look Monoma has as he stares at his hand. "It's not working."

Peter hears Monoma say. Monoma looks at Peter suspiciously, "I can't use your quirk!"

Peter shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly, but in his head, he's worried. What does that mean? Was he supposed to steal my quirk? Is that how he used Bakugo's quirk? Or maybe he copied it… but he couldn't copy mine. He shakes his head, now not being the time to worry about that, seeing as how they're still stuck on the ground.

"Uh guys, any ideas?"

Mina struggles, "I can't get out even with my acid I keep sinking deeper!"

"I can't make anything big enough to get all of us out of here without getting us disqualified!" Momo notifies him grimly as some students seem to have recovered and are setting their sights on them.

"So we're sitting ducks, great! You know this is exactly how I pictured myself dying, stuck to the ground with a horde of angry superpowered teens bent on my destruction."

His spider sense goes crazy as the horde of students begin to converge on them when suddenly,

"TIME'S UP!"

Everyone stops at once, Peter opens one eye as he had flinched beforehand, "Huh?"

"And with that the second round is officially over!"

"… Oh yea I forgot to keep track of time." Peter mumbles.

He yelps as he unceremoniously falls to the ground as Mina had dropped him and hops in the air, "Woohoo! We did it!"

Peter stands up and rubs his sore bum, "Hooray." He deadpans.

"Now let's take a look at who our top four teams are! In first place, Team Parker!"

The crowd erupts into cheers as Momo sighs in relief, "We ended in first place, but it was very close in the end."

"Hey but like you said we ended in first place! Rest is just semantics!" Peter says.

"It was thanks to you and your reflexes." She compliments with a sweet smile.

"Couldn't have done it without you and you're creativeness, no pun intended, plus Mina too!"

"Woohoo! We sure showed the crowd a good time!" She keeps hopping and waving at the crowd, basking in the glory.

"We sure did," he sees Bakugo steaming in rage a little ways away from him and calls out, "Hey no hard feelings right Bobomb?"

Bakugo screams in rage as a response, bringing out a chuckle from Peter.

Momo has to ask, "Why do you keep antagonizing him? You know he'd actually go through with hurting you?"

Peter shrugs, "At this point it's starting to become a game, if he gives in, I win! And he knows it."

She shakes her head in amusement as the rest of the teams are announced. Peter is ecstatic to hear that Midoriya made it as well! He runs up to his green haired friend, "Woo! I knew you'd make it Midoriya!"

He smiles shyly, "Thanks but it's actually thanks to Tokoyami, I lost my headband but he got enough to make up for it and keep us in the fight."

Peter nods in respect to the Dark hero in training, "I didn't know sleight of hand was your quirk."

Tokoyami smirks, "I'm a man of many talents, keep that in mind."

"Duly noted."

Present Mic then announces, "Now! Let's take an hour lunch break before we start the afternoon festivities!"

"Oh nice! I think this is the perfect time to call Aunt May she must be worried sick."

With that Peter bids farewell to his friends and goes to find a private place to call May. Once doing so he has to hold the phone a foot away from his head as he hears May scream, "PETER! You were amazing! I can't believe how well you're doing oh I'm so proud of you!"

"heheheh thanks May, I'm honestly surprising myself, I didn' think I'd make it this far!"

"How can you think that?! You're a natural! When you started swinging Peter, oh! It took my breath away, it was like moving art!"

"Well I had a lot of practice!" he flinches, I should not have said that.

"What do you mean? You told me you've all just been doing normal school stuff since the USJ attack… unless… you've been sneaking out at night haven't you!?"

"Um uh… sorry what? I think I'm losing you!"

"Oh don't you pull that on me Mister! You are so gonna get it when we get home!"

"May I can't hear you I think I'm at a bad—tion area—an't – ear you."

And he ends the call. "… boy I'm so gonna regret that later."

"Trouble in paradise?"

Peter yelps and nearly falls on his butt by the suddent intrusion of Tony Stark in the flesh, "M-Mr Stark! You're really here!"

"of course! You think I'd miss this?! You've been killing it so far kid!"

He rubs his head, feeling surreal that he's being complimented by his idol, "I-I'm doing alright."

Tony claps his back, which stung slightly since he's still in his armor, "Better than alright! You're turning so many heads it's insane!... which reminds me, you know that my offer still stands right? About the internship? With me?"

"Yea! Of course! I'm really looking forward to it!"

"Good! Good. Good… good. Just remember that! I'm uh, expecting you to take up on that offer… no matter who else offers an internship... or how popular they are."

"Huh?"

"Nothing! Oh would you look at the time, gotta make a quick business call, good luck kid!"

Peter watches his… mentor? Walk off in confusion. He shakes his head and hears his stomach grumble, "Yea I should eat something before I faint in the afternoon festivities."

"Get those foam fingers in the air cause it's almost time for the last round!" Present Mic screams.

The audience rush as fast as they can to get back to their seats, shaking with anticipation for what's to come. Peter stretches a bit as he starts to walk toward the tunnel that leads him back to the field, his mask resting atop his head like a beanie. He likes wearing a mask as much as the next guy but everyone needs a break every now and then. He rounds the corner but stops dead in his tracks when he runs into the girls of his class. He's speechless as they all stare at him, staring at them.

"Uhhhhh, wha-what're you guys wearing?"

Jiro tugs on her shirt slightly, clearly uncomfortable in her new attire, the rest of the girls are nonchalant but starting to feel uneasy as Peter asks them about their clothes. "We're wearing cheer uniforms… like Aizawa said." Asui answers.

Peter's embarrassment goes away, genuinely puzzled by that. "What really? Since when has Aizawa ever enforced dress code?"

Now all the girls are as perplexed as Peter is, "I'm not sure." Ochaco says, "But that's what we were told."

"By who?"

Realization dawns on Momo's face, "By Kaminari and… Mineta."

Dumbfounded Peter stares at Momo in disbelief, "And you actually believed Aizawa would use Mineta to pass on instructions about female dress code?"

At once all the girls scream, "MINETA!"

Jiro's expression turns absolutely murderous, "That little creep I'm gonna kill him!"

"Under normal circumstances I'd fully support you but maybe wait until you're out of danger of being disqualified." Peter says.

Momo falls to her knees in despair, "I Can't believe I let him trick me like that, I even used my quirk to make these costumes."

Wow even when she's sad she's really cute, no down Parker down! he shakes his head, "Look on the bright side, you didn't walk out in front of the crowd like this, plus there's still plenty of time to change back to normal clothes."

"I actually kinda like these uniforms!" Toru says as she does some cheer moves.

Mina smirks as she had paid attention to Peter's eyes when he had first laid eyes on them. The first person he looked at was Momo and it didn't escape her notice how Momo stiffened when she was caught in a cheerleader costume by the exchange student. Why're you getting so embarrassed for Momo? You've never been embarassed before! She thinks slyly. A glint shines in her eyes as she decides to tease the two once again.

She sways up to Peter who gulps nervously. "What's wrong Peter? Do you think we look bad in these?"

She arches her back to make her chest more prominent and Peter struggles to keep his gaze focused on her face, "Um o-of course not! You all look great!"

She grins and looks over her shoulder, "You here that everyone? Peter likes it when we where cheerleader outfits!"

Jiro gives her a weird look while Momo begins to glare, I knew it!

"That's not what I said I just you look good!"

"Just good Peter?"

"Um uh."

Momo yanks her back roughly, "Enough already, Mina this is very inappropriate behavior you're displaying!"

"What, I'm just teasing, Peter's ok with that. Right Peter?"

She winks at him, making him blush more and he quickly pulls down his mask to cover his face. Causing the girls to laugh at his expense. All except Momo, "Let's just get changed already, we wouldn't want to give the perverts the satisfaction of seeing us like this!"

She pulls Mina back to the locker room with the rest of the girls following suit. She lets mina go as they enter, "Geez I was just playing."

"You shouldn't play like that with Peter though!" She scolds, a little more composed now as they all begin changing.

"hm, if I didn't know any better I'd say you were jealous."

Now it's Momo's turn to get flustered, "What?! I'm not jealous! I just don't think Peter deserves to be teased like that."

Smirking Mina shrugs, "I don't know. Peter is a sweet guy but he is still a man! Though I'm sure you've noticed that."

Momo rolls her eyes, "Just get changed and focus on the event!"

Momo decides to ignore Mina as she continues to change, though the pink skinned girls words are still echoing in her mind. I'm not jealous… right?

Chapter 12

"Get those foam fingers in the air! It's almost time for the last round!" Present Mic announces.

The patrons rush to return to their seats, buzzing with anticipation for the final event. Thankfully Peter took some time to read what exactly the last round is about so he wouldn't be as lost as he was prior to the cavalry battle.

"huh, so one-on-one fights? (gulp) I wonder who I'll be fighting."

He pulls on the bottom of his mask for a little more air filtration to help cool him down from the nervous sweat he's working up.

Present Mic continues his announcements, updating the crowd to more information concerning the rest of the students who didn't make the cut, as well as to give everyone ample enough to truly get themselves ready. "Good news for everyone who didn't make the finals! Since this is a sports festival, we prepared some super-fun side games everyone can participate in."

Peter makes a sound as he grimaces, to which Shoji notices, "What's wrong?"

"Oh nothing just, take it from a lifelong nerd, nothings more insulting than a patronizing participation game after losing." He explains.

"Hmm, I see how that can be perceived that way." Shoji concedes, the looks on the faces of the students in Class 1-B clearly backing up Peters claims.

Mineta and Kaminari appear, eyes watering with excitement and in Denki's case, sparks dancing around his body, "Everyone shut up now the best parts about to happen!"

The multi armed student narrows his eyes in suspicion to the two resident perverts of the class. "What did you do?" a stern undertone in his question.

Mineta pays no mind to the threatening nature of his classmate, "My genius has allowed us to witness some of the most spectacular sights known to man, cheerleader uniforms!"

Realization dawns on Peter as he remembers what he had walked into just a few minutes prior and he stifles his smirk, knowing that disappointment will be the only thing gracing Mineta. One of Shoji's arms picks up on the sound of Peter's stifled chuckle and he raises a curious eyebrow. "Oh you'll see, something tells me what's about to happen will be more entertaining for us than them." He whispers.

"We even brought cheerleaders from America to get your blood pumping!"

Mineta rubs his palms together as his eyes widen to the point they could almost pop out his head, "Here it comes!"

Then from the darkness of the tunnel leading into the field… comes a vicious looking Jiro sprinting towards the two, her eyes promising nothing but violence, "YOU IDIOTS!"

Mineta's mouth runs dry as the two stumble back from the look of pure rage but Jiro doesn't let them escape and she brutally shoves her jacks into their ears and crank them for all their worth. The two teens yells helplessly as their eardrums are rattled while the rest of the women in Class 1-A watch in cold satisfaction. The crowd seem to believe it's part of an act apparently and they cheer the spectacle on. Shoji laughs behind his mask with Peter, "You were right, it was much more entertaining for us!"

"Didn't I tell ya? Hahaha!"

The two teens are left a twitching mess as Jiro pants, her anger slowing down and she retracks her earphone jacks, much to the relief of the pair. Mineta raises a hang towards her, his eyes filled with tears, "W-Why?"

"You damn well why you pervert! Aizawa Sensei didn't order for us to wear the cheerleader uniforms, you tricked us so you can feed you sick fantasies!" she growls.

Momo places a calming hand on Jiro's shoulder to rein her in but her disappointment is no less profound. "You two should be ashamed of yourselves! Abusing the trust of your classmates! It's a good thing Parker-kun found us when he did or else we really would've made a fool out of ourselves!"

"…Uh oh."

His spider sense tingles lightly as Denki and Mineta gasp and snap their glaring eyes towards the American student, furious betrayal written all over their expression. They come running at him with the same intensity as Jiro but thankfully Shoji catches them just before they reach him, hanging them in the air as they still struggle to latch onto Peter.

"PARKER-SAN!" "PARKER-SAN!"

He leans away from their touch, "W-What?!"

"How could you betray us!? This would've been perfect but you just had to ruin it for all of us!" Mineta cries.

Peter gives him a deadpanned look, "Somehow I doubt every guy here was begging to see all the girls in cheerleading uniforms!"

"That's because you have no taste! No ambition!"

Denki stops him as he makes a realization, "Wait… Peter that means you saw them! Oh please tell us everything!"

Mineta now begs, "I have to know! Was it as great as I dreamed!?"

"Ok I am NOT going to indulge you with this!"

He begins to walk away but Mineta asks, "At least tell us who looked the best!"

And without wanting, memories of Yaoyorozu comes rushing to the fore front of Peter's mind. Normally he isn't one to leer at a woman, but even he couldn't deny just how good she looked. How the skirt fit her perfectly to show off her amazing legs, her tight midriff was enticing as the shirt fight snug against her chest. Blood rushes to Peter's face as he thinks of her, Momo… so … cute…

A gasp to his left snaps him out of it and it feels like ice was poured down his spine as he sees Momo standing there a hand reaching her mouth, her cheeks pink as she stares unblinkingly at him. Shit I said that outloud! Her mouth flaps open and closed and embarrassment courses through Peter's being and he desperately begs for the earth to just open up and swallow him whole to escape the humiliation.

"I-I-I-I-I didn—I-I didn't mean it! I-I mean I did but but not in some weird way like Mineta-"

"Hey!"

"I-I- Just!"

Jiro appears and protectively pulls Momo back her earphone jacks slithering in the air menacingly. She glares at Peter, "So you too huh Peter!?"

"What?! No! I didn't do anything I just!"

As they walk away Momo is still shocked and embarrassed by Peter's admission. Jiro scoffs, "Can't believe those idiots."

Momo mindlessly nods but she thinks about how Peter had called her cute and how her heart felt like leaping when he said that. And the thought of him looking at her that way…Why does it not bother me? If possible, her blushes gets even more red.

With his protests falling onto deaf ears as Jiro pulls Momo away, Peter sighs, dropping his head into his hands. "Well that was humiliating."

Shoji drops the two and pats Peters back, "Don't worry they'll understand."

"I hope you're right."

The two focus as Midnight takes the stage holding a box labeled lots, "Come closer and draw lots to see whop you're up against. Then enjoy the pleasure of the recreational games before we start!"

Peter gets in line with Sero as Mina asks, "So is it always a one on one fight at the end of each Sports festival?"

"Yea but they're not always the same thing. Like last year's one on one events were fought with foam swords."

"… This feels like an updated school family friendly version of Ancient Rome's Gladiator matches." Peter comments.

Sero agrees, "Though with some of these quirks, 'family friendly' might not be the best way to describe this years events."

The spider powered teen snorts, "You got that right!"

Mina steps closer to Peter and with a sly grin she asks, "So, you really think Momo was that cute huh?"

She laughs silently as the American teen grumbles and buries his face into his hands again, "Wiil you stop laughing, it's not that funny!"

"It really is!"

"No it isn't!"

"Whatever you say lover boy!"

"GRRRR!"

As they slowly make their way to the box, Midnight continues, "The 16 finalists have the option of participating in those activities or sitting out to prepare for battle. I'm sure you all want to conserve your stamina."

Some of the finalists stay behind, mainly Ojiro who along with others, is withdrawing. When questioned why by Iida he replies, "It just wouldn't be right. I barely remember anything from the cavalry battle until the very end of it." He glances at a purple haired student that Peter remembers was called Shinso.

"I… I think it was that guys quirk. I know this is a great opportunity. I wish I could take advantage of it, but my conscious won't let me."

Peter could actually respect that. He felt similar when he was first taking the exams to enter enrollment for UA. Despite Tony Starks insistence that Peter entered with his own merit, he still felt guilty that he only had this chance because of Stark. Some seem to disagree like Toru, Mina, and even Izuku but with great hesitance, Ojiro sticks to his decision. This gives the rest the courage to make the same decision and many of the finalists withdraw. That's not to say that everyone had the same sentiment. And in all, the decision was up to Midnight who looked at each student with sternness. "This sort of talk is incredibly naive my boys…." She snaps her whip, "That turns me on!"

Did she just say that turns her on?! Oh god please don't let May complain to the school!

" Shoda! Ojiro! Kaibara! You're withdrawn!" The rest of the students sweat drop as her statement finally registered for them.

"Now let's see… We'll have to move up three students from the fifth-place cavalry team so we have enough contestants."

The leader of said fifth place team, Kendo, refuses; " We were frozen most of the time. We barely did anything in the cavalry battle." She turns to her teammates, "Isn't that right?"

They all nod in agreement as she continues, "You should chose from the group that kept fighting the whole time. Team Tetsutetsu."

They gasp, shocked by her selfless decision. "Kendo!"

She smiles at Tetsutetsu, "I'm not doing this as a favor. It's just fair."

"Well ain't that heartwarming." Peter whispers, finding the bond between the classmates as wholesome.

"And so, Tetsutetsu, Shiazaki and Kamakiri have advanced to the final!"

Midnight snaps her whip towards the hologram, "Take a look at the bracket my dears! These are your opponents!"

The crowd goes wild as they names appear:

Kirishima vs Tetsutetsu

Kinda seems redundant but hey.

Tokoyami Vs Yaoyorozu

Aoyama Vs Ashido

Midoriya Vs Shinso

Todoroki Vs Sero

Hatsume Vs Iida

Kaminari Vs Shiazaki

Parker Vs Kamakiri

Bakugo Vs Uraraka

"Huh looks like I'm the second figh—BAKUGO VS URARAKA?!"

Peter can hear Uraraka yelp as she sees who her opponent is while Bakugo… is confused. "Uraraka? Who's that?"

Seriously? We're all in the same class and hear our names constantly how do you not know? But then another match up registers in Peter's mind, that makes him all the more nervous. "Hatsume and Iida?!"

Peter scans the crowd and is dismayed to see that's she is already speaking animatedly with Iida. He quickly rushes to them, dodging and saying sorry to anyone he accidentally bumps into. "I have something nice for you!"

"Really? What's tha—"

"Nothing! Nothing she has absolutely nothing but best wishes for the fight you have with her!" Peter states as he pushes Hatsume away.

"Parker-san! That is no way to treat a fellow student, release her at once!" Iida chastises. Peter groans, not even giving Hatsume the satisfaction of seeing her smug smirk.

"Look Iida-san I think it's best that you DON'T accept anything from Hatsume!"

"Oh come now Parker don't be rude, I'm only trying to make things fair for us!" Hatsume explains.

But Peter narrows his eyes in suspicion, "Really because leading up to this Sports Festival all you could talk about was how much you wanted to show off your 'babies' to any company watching!"

Iida stops him before he can continue, "Parker-san that is enough! Now I understand that in America it isn't customary to accept assistance from your opponents in an event but, under the standards of UA that type of sportsmanship is not only allowed but encouraged!"

"Iida please I'm telling you this for your own good—"

"And I am telling you this as your Class Representative! It is shameful to accuse your fellow classmates of having ulterior motives for their kindness!"

Peter throws his hands in the air, "You know what? Sure."

He smiles at Hatsume, "Have fun."

"Oh I will!" She whispers back with a giggle.

They share a knowing grin as he walks away. The students break off to do the side games as the stage is being prepared by Cementoss for the battles. Not really feeling like participating, Peter decides to head back to the tunnel and get to his seat in the class's designated area. Halfway up the stares, a blonde student appears, his eyes looking slightly unhinged. "Umm, excuse me, I just wanna squeeze by to get to my seat."

"Well well if it isn't one of Class 1-A's premier students! What was it again, Pecker?"

"It's Parker."

"Oh, I'm so sorry for my mistake!" Clearly he isn't, "I should've known your name since Class 1-A seems to enjoy the spotlight so much!"

Peter takes a tentative step back, "You ok there buddy? You seem a little… wound up?"

"And why would that be?"

Monoma takes some aggressive steps into Peter's space, despite the teen leaning back from the intrusion. "Do you know what my quirk is?"

"Hmm, copy and paste?"

Monoma's eye twitches, despite his smile staying in place, "Just copy. Which means I can copy anyone's quirk for up to 5 minutes… except yours."

Peter remembers during the cavalry battle, how Monoma touched him and said; 'it didn't work.' Shit, this can't be good! He clears his throat and smirks weakly, "W-well performance issues is not uncommon in men. It's said that 1 in every 5 males will experience—"

"SHUT UP!"

Peter's taken aback by the sudden outburst and the fierceness of the Class 1-B students glare. The glare disappears and is suddenly replaced by a haughty mock laugh, "Oh hohoho! You 1-A students are so full of yourselves aren't you? Such bravado, such arrogance! Always hogging the spotlight and declaring your supposed 'superiority' over the rest of us."

"Actually that was Baku—"

"But I've made it my personal mission to drop you all down a peg to show you who really is the superior student!"

"Don't you mean class?"

"Until now."

"Oh ok, ignore what I'm saying I guess. Again!"

"There is something particularly vexing about you."

Peter shrugs, "I am known to be quite vexing but for the most part everyone considers it to be an endearing quality."

Monoma rolls his eyes and snarls, "Do you ever shut up?!"

"Not when I'm being cornered by a unhinged schoolmate who has a weird Superiority/Inferiority complex. Quite the vexing combo… Get it? … Cause you know you said vexing earlier?"

Monoma teeth clench and he places his palm on his forehead, nearly hyperventilating until the mad grin returns, "I'll be watching Pecker—"

"Parker."

"You're hiding something! And when you slip up, I'll be there to show you who truly is the superior hero."

Moments of tense silence pass by before Peter states, "… In training."

With a snarl Monoma dramatically turns on his heel and leaves. Peter sighs, "Way to go Parker. You always find some ways to make enemies don't you?"

Sighing again he continues his journey to the seats and as soon as he passes the doorway he makes eye contact with Momo. The two stare at each other before she blushes and looks away, Jiro narrows her eyes at him and he gulps and tries to search for a different seat to use. "Hey Parker-San!" Ochaco waves at him.

He leaps to where she's pointing and he sits one space away from her. "Thanks for coming to my rescue!"

"What do you mean?"

"Forget it, where's Midoriya?"

"He went down to the waiting area already, he's in the first match so he guess he needed to hype himself up!" she answers cheerily.

Peter nods but remembers who Uraraka's opponent will be. "Hey about that… How you feeling about, you know, going against the angry Pomeranian there?"

She stiffens and gives him a strained smile, "I-I am absolutely ok! Yup, not nervous at all! It's gonna be a blast!"

"… I'm very sure it will be. But do you want to talk abou—"

"HEY LOOK! Present Mic is about to announce the fight, GO DEKU!"

Peter watches with brow raising amusement, "Yea," he mutters to himself, "not nervous at all."

The crowd goes wild as flames shoot from each corner of the stage Cementoss had finished preparing, wowing the attendants with the spectacle. "Alright ladies and Gentlemen! Let's cut to the good stuff and not delay these finals any longer! Welcome our first fighters!"

A picture of both contestants appear on the hologram Shinso seems to be apathetic while Midoriya is practically curling into himself, visible fear in his face. "Whoa he looks scared in that picture doesn't he?"

Peter drops his shoulders, "Did they really have to use that picture of Izu- I mean Midoriya? It's like they're trying to embarrass him!"

Uraraka flinches a bit but laughs anyway, "It's not that bad, he kinda looks cu—I mean brave!"

Peter grins, "Uh huh. Sure. That's what you were trying to say!"

"Rules are simple, immobilize your opponent or toss them out the ring! You can also win by getting the other person to cry uncle! Bring on the injuries cause we got our very own Recovery Girl waiting on standby! So put your morals aside and don't be afraid to play dirty!" Present Mic explains as the two students make themselves at home in the ring.

Peter is incredulous, "That's a terrible way of explaining this! God if Uncle Ben were here he'd have pulled me out faster than a hummingbirds heartbeat."

"I will have to agree with you Parker-san."

Peter yelps as Iida seemingly appears out of thin air next to him, "How long have you been there?!"

"I've been here the whole time haven't you noticed?"

"No actually. I guess I was so distracted I didn't see you there. Plus you were so still."

"A well behaved student must have complete control of himself as to not disturb the focus of the other students. Now Focus, the match is about to begin!"

"START!"

Peter leans forward, his elbows resting on his knees. At first neither two students move. Though from Peter's perspective, it seemed like Shinso was talking to his green haired friend. Even with his enhanced hearing, he couldn't make out what they were saying, due to a combo of distance and the screaming crowd. But whatever was being said must've riled up Izuku as he started charging at the stoic student. But something weird happened. Out of nowhere, Midoriya stops, standing so still he was like a statue. And Peter was disturbed by how he looked. His eyes, they look so unfocused. Lifeless! Ojiro abruptly groans as he's clutching his hair, "I warned him not to say anything!"

"What do you mean?" Peter asks, his pulse racing faster and faster.

"Do you know why he isn't moving?!" Iida asks.

Ojiro grimly nods, "I told Midoriya about what happened to me during the cavalry battle. Shinso approached me and he asked me a question, then the next thing I know it's the end of the battle. I have no memory of what happened after answering his question. Taking all of that into consideration, I told Midoriya that my guess was that Shinso has the ability to control peoples minds."

"But only when one answers his questions." Peter supplies.

"Exactly."

Peter turns back worriedly to his friend, "This isn't good!" He cups his mouth and shouts, "SNAP OUT OF IT MIDORIYA!"

But Izuku stays in place. Present Mic, who is obviously a commentator, has the same train of thought as Ojiro, "Hitoshi Shinso seems to have Izuku Midoriya completely stunned! Who could've imagined this turn of events!?" His worried demeanor quickly snaps into one of excitement, "That's the festival for ya!" He says with a laugh.

Peter's nerves start to buzz even worse as Shinso says what could only be a demand to walk out of bounds as Izuku turns and slowly walks towards the edge. "Nononononono Izuku No!"

"Oh no Deku what're you doing!? Snap out of it!"

Iida's arms chop in the air frantically, "He can't walk out of the ring, he'll lose the match if he does!"

Peter rolls his eyes, "No shit Sherlock!" he mutters to himself and tries to scream louder to get Izuku to stop. Come on Izuku snap out of it! You're stronger than this! But hope starts to dwindle as the greenette gets closer and closer to the edge. Peter turns to Ojiro,

"Is there anyway to help him?"

The tailed hero in training shakes his head, "No. There's no outside force that can help. Even if there was, we can't help him or else he'll be disqualified."

Peter curses and runs his hand through his hair trying to think. He's biting his nails Midoriya is nearly on the edge when suddenly, he stops. Peters enhanced eyes catch his fingers glowing with his quirk and snapping closed. The resulting wind from the force is strong enough to be felt even from where they're standing. Izuku gulps in air greedily as he catches himself before he reaches the line. The corwd goes wild as he finally broke out of the brainwashing.

"WHAT'S THIS?! Midoriya stopped just in time!" the voice hero exclaims.

Class 1-A joins in the cheers as well,

"That's my boy!" Peter yells.

"That's the way to do it!" Iida says as he throws his fists into the air.

Uraraka sighs in relief, "Whoa, I was about to freak out!"

Peter's whooping falters as he sees the state his fingers are in. Damn, he must've used one for all at 100%, it must've taken everything in him to snap out of it. Peter shudders at the thought of having to face someone with that kind of power, but thankful that Shinso wants to use it for good. Clearly Shinso has never had anyone break out of his mind control if his shock is any indication. He tries to talking but this time, Midoriya is silent, not daring to open his mouth. "HAHA GO GET HIM MIDORIYA!"

Izuku charges forward pushing Shinso closer and closer to the edge, despite the punishing blows Shinso throws to his face and gut, making him bleed. But Izuku fights throw it and he grabs the right hook Shinso throws and judo flips him over his shoulders to the floor. He lands hard, his legs stetched out over the dark gray blocks marking the out of bounds layer. Midngiht smiles and snaps her whip, "Shinso is out of bounds! Midoriya advances to the next match!"

The crowd erupts into even louder applause, cheering for the efforts of both participants. Even Peter is clapping on Shinso's behalf. He tells Iida and Ochaco, "You know, even though I was rooting for Midoriya, gotta say Shinso did his best, I can respect that."

"Very admirable to respect everyone we face even if they're rivals." Iida says with a smile.

Peter's ears pick up Kaminari nudging Bakugo saying, "He pulled that shoulder throw on you before hasn't he?"

"Shut your damn face sparky!"

Peter snorts but hides it, not wanting to get on Bakugo's nerves… yet.

Apparently, Present Mic did not share in their enthusiasm as he yells, "That was kinda a boring first match, but both of you fougth very bravely! Let's show them some love, everyone!"

Peter claps but Uraraka taps his shoulder, "Aren't you the next match?"

"… Oh crap I gotta go down there!"

Peter rushes out the seating area and goes to the stares, taking leaps and bounds to descend while reciting in his head, crapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrap! He finally gets to the first floor and runs down the corridor and nearly runs over Izuku, "Oh hey Midoriya you did awesome! How did you break out of the mind control though?"

"oh uh thanks. I… I'm not really sure. It was weird, I… don't think it was really me." He says, more to himself than to Peter.

Peter is curious as to what exactly his friend meant by that but he hears Present Mic call on Peter and Kamakiri. Peter gets to the edge and gulps.

"Ok. Ok. One on one fight in front of basically the whole world. Alright Parker, you've embarrassed yourself in front of your school before and it haunted you for most of your elementary and middle school career… please don't do it in front of millions of people or you'll never live it down!"

"What's this?" Present Mic asks, "It seems like soemthing's happening to the hologram!"

Confused Peter pokes his head out to see the words, "BREAK A LEG KID!" displayed. Peter's jaw drops and he looks up the stadium and sees Ironman waving at him. He can't but laugh. "Thanks Mr Stark. I'll do my best!"

Up with Tony, he tells Jarvis to relinquish control of the hologram and let the event continue. Mirko raises an unimpressed eyebrow. "You do know you're not supposed to tamper with UA tech right?"

"Oh come on it's just to lift the kids spirits."

"Why not do it to both?"

"W-Well I didn't specify who I meant, maybe the other kid thinks its for him I don't know."

Mirko rolls her eyes, "Idiot."

Back at the stage, Peter stretches his legs and adjusts his mask, grateful that Hatsume was able to include him in her support course technicality to allow certain gadgets to be allowed. Everyone would probably see how close I am to puking if I didn't have this mask on. Peter turns his attention to his green skinned opponent who has pincers on both sides of his cheeks. "So uh, before we get started what was quirk again?"

"You'll find out."

He nods, "Yea I should've figured that would be your answer."

"ARE YOU TWO READY!? BEGIN!"

Peter crouches into a spider like stance, waiting to see what his opponents move would be. Kamakiri narrows his eyes then gets into a defensive stance, long sharp blades protruding out from his forearms. The lenses in his mask widen, "What the- you have claws?! That is so cool!"

Kamakiri starts rushing towards Peter and he gulps, "But not when they're rushing towards me with murderous intent!"

He shoots his webs but his blade wielding opponent slices them to pieces just before they make contact. His spider sense goes crazy as Kamakiri gets closer to Peter than he anticipated and he quickly dodges left and right as the blades are swung with deadly precision.

"You know if you don't make it as a pro, not that you won't I mean this is a hypothetical, you could make a killing opening up your own barbershop!"

Peter dodges another thrust and front flips a good distance away, "But you got a think of a good name, hmm. How about Super Cuts! No wait that's taken."

Peter shoots a web ball at the blade wielder but he cuts it out the air and kicks towards Peter. The queens native redirects the kick, overextending him and hooks his elbow to his neck and throws him over his hip. Kamakiri recovers quickly though as his back is on the ground for less then a second before he rolls out the way of the webs Peter shot to restrain him and he slices towards his mid section. Peter gasps as he sucks it in and dashes back, "Hey hey whoa whoa that's way to close to the family jewels! Ref said no shots below the belt!"

"My bad!"

Peter stops, "Oh wow you apologized? That's actually pretty nice I apprecia- WHOA!"

Kamakiri leaps into the air spinning like a fidget spinner and causing Peter to have to backflip out the way and leap towards the air. He web yanks himself back to the bladed opponent and somersaults out the way of thrust while simultaneously planting a Kick to his chest. Knocking the wind out of him and throwing him skidding across the floor. But his opponent was strong as he plants his blade into the ground, slowing down to a full stop. Peter is already upon him asking, "Hey you know what happens when a fly runs into a web?"

And he repeatedly shoots his webs at the student, leaping over him but never letting up. The class 1-B Student is quick and is able to block a few but eventually he gets completely encased in webs. Peter lands and places his hands on his hips as he admires his handy work. "Something along these lines I suppose."

His spider sense tingles and out of nowhere multiple blades pierce out from his opponents body, tearing the webs to shreds and freeing him. "Holy crap, are you a porcupine?!"

"What?! No I'm not a damn porcupine!"

"Well your quirk is really similar to it cause of all the spikes."

"Since when has porcupines shot metal out there bodies?!"

Peter concedes, "Good point plus I've never seen a green one."

"GRRRRRRR!" he rushes Peter, leaping forward and curling into a ball, the blades causing him to roll like a murderous ball.

"Ok calling you green is a no-no, sorry I didn't mean to say anything offensive!"

He slides out the way, but just before Kamakiri passes him, he kicks out catching him at the side of his ribs and disrupting his roll. He grunts from the pain in his ribs, it wasn't hard enough to break anything but it was a damn good hit!

Peter starts thinking, ok I'm guessing if he wanted to, he'd have hundreds of blades coming out of his entire body but he's not keen on being naked here. He's got some openings that I can work with I just gotta be fast!

This time Peter rushes and he leaps, kicking down at Kamakiri's head, stumbling him. Peter lands and shoots a web near the ground, Pulling himself as he throws a left hook, dazing his opponent.

"Tag you're it no backsies!"

Stunned slightly, Kamakiri throws a wild swipe that Peter dodges by doing a split throw his legs and grabbing his ankle, he lifts him off his feet and back down to the ground. Peter's spider sense tingles and blades appear from kamakiri's ankle but Peter was quick enough to let go in time, but the right side of his midsection gets sliced. He grunts in pain clutching his side. Momentarily distracted, Peter didn't realize that the 1-B student had recovered until his spider sense tingled and he leaned back, parallel to the ground, dodging the bladed round kick that was throw. He gets up and gives a solid punch to his back, throwing the green skinned student off his feet and sliding to a stop. Kamakiri gets up ready for more when suddenly he hears the crack of a whip, "Kamakiri is out of bounds! Parker wins and moves onto the next round!"

"What?" He looks down in confusion and sees that his left foot is indeed outside the bordered stage. He sighs disappointedly, sheathing back the blades protruding from his skin.

Peter walks up to him and offers a hand, "Gotta give it to you, you almost had my tuchus a few times there."

He snorts, "You were taking it easy on me weren't you?"

Peter stammers, "Not necessarily. I always pull my punches cause I could probably kill someone if I cut too loose. Plus I'll be honest I was irrationally afraid that as soon as I made contact you'd activate a blade and cut my hand off."

The green skinned hero in training laughs, "I probably would've."

Peter joins in his laugh with him, "Hehehe… you're uh… you're joking right?"
