Chapter 23

To the battleground.

"Thank's, Tsu. I would've missed it if it weren't for you." I give the frog-esk girl a smile before standing up and stretching. A yawn pokes at my lips and throat, and the heavy sleep still lurks behind my eyes.
"You're welcome, (Y/n)." Tsu says, as she takes her seat once more and talks to Momo. I sometimes wonder if the two would be a good couple, but then I remember that Momo and Jiro are a couple.
I carry my pride on my shoulders as I walk to the battle grounds. People cheer for me, yelling and screaming how I'm going to win this match against Todoroki. Truth is, I know I'm going to lose. I don't want to win, I want to prove I'm good enough but not the absolute best. If I get too much attention here at the sports festival, it could mean trouble for me later on in the school year and my high school career. I don't need that, I already have enough on my plate.

"Oi, Shouto! I wish you the best of luck my guy. You're gonna need it!" Good, act cocky. I need to get him riled up so he'll go all out.
"You better watch your words, (y/n)!" He calls back, his face getting red with impatience.

"3...2...1 begin!" Midnights voice cuts through the tension, game on.
He rushes at me, only to jump back a split second before contact. I could feel the varying temperature radiate off his body. One side, unbearably hot. The other, frighteningly cold. His glare cold as ice, where was the Todoroki from class that I considered a friend?
"Don't think for a second I don't know you're plan, (Y/n)! You're not going to throw this match! You're going to fight me with everything you've got, whether you like it or not!"
How did he know? I didn't tell anyone my plan for this match!
"It doesn't matter what you say, Todoroki! Whatever you do, even if you make it look bad on purpose, I'll just do worse to make you look better!"
He jumps to the other side of the arena. He sends a pillar of ice towards me, but purposely throws off his aim. I jump towards it, and purposely strike myself on the ice.

Midnight notices what's happening in the arena, and calls a time.
"You two are acting like children! Fight like hero's, not some dumb kids!"
Fine, they want me to fight like a hero, I'll show them a fight that they'll never forget.
Todoroki has a face on that I won't be forgetting anytime soon. It was terrifying.
"Fine, I'll just have to send one myself.."
Forcing my quirk into use, I affect the gravity around me. Flying above Todoroki, i manipulate the particles around him, removing the oxygen and thus disabling his fire, while also manipulating the water particles to disable his ice. His hands wrap around his neck, as he begins chocking due to the lack of oxygen. Before I could continue, Midnight interrupts me.

(Y/n) (l/n) is out of bounds! Todoroki proceeds to the next round!

Well fuck. That's not how I expected that to go. Nothing I can do to help it now, however.
Todoroki shoots me a glare, I have a feeling this friendship won't be the same without some apologizing, which we both have to do. I walk towards him, and meet his glare.

I flip him the bird.
Probably not a good idea, but seriously I don't care right now. I haven't ate enough today to have the energy to care.

I walk out of the arena and up to the stands to watch Katsuki and Todoroki fight. I'll probably wind up falling asleep again, thought I want to support bakugo as best I can.

"Hey, Y/n?" A familiar gruff voice calls out my name. I turn around to be met with the bright red spiky hair of kirishima.

"What's up Kiri? Need something?"
