T'was the tourney, a first for U.A. Kata hummed, looking around as he saw every student from U.A., blinking. "Whoa... a whole lotta people here to participate." He would say, seeing all forms of people and their powers. People with stretching, tape, duplication, and more. Kata seemed a bit out of place, as he was the only one who looked ready, gi and all. He then looked upon the tournament board, seeing the contestants. Ochako vs Bakugou, Momo vs someone from 1-B, and... huh. Deku isn't anywhere on here. He blinks, shrugging before continuing to read it. He finally spots himself. Kata vs Shoto Todoroki. "Huh..." he wondered, looking around. He then shrugged, heading towards the arena to look for more info. After a while of walking, Kata would hear an argument between two people, so he kinda leaned against the wall. "I don't th... you li..." He could only hear bits and pieces of this argument, but it seemed intense. Sounded like a scolding or something. He grimaced, remembering the scolding he would get from one of his teachers, which was Vegeta, telling him how much weight was on his shoulders.

After a while, Kata would leave the wall and head to the locker to freshen up for the fight he would have with Shoto. He sighs, thinking about his world, and how the Tenkaichi Tournament netted him into the Time Patrol.

~Flashback~

Age: 805

Kata had been fighting some pretty strong fighters for a bit, recuperating with some food for a bit. Then, a pink small midget would sit in front of him, on the other side of the table. "Hey! You must be Katakuna, right?" She would ask, in a cheery tone. Kata was kinda confused. "Y-Yeah?" He answered truthfully. "Sweet! I'm the Supreme Kai of Time!" The midget would say, smirking. "Some of your friends told me ya got some power behind those fists of yours!" She points out, yanking a ramen bowl from him, and starts to eat. "Huh... I kinda do. I've been holding back on some so that I don't put them in serious injury." He says, biting a chunk of Dino meat off a bone. "That is very noble of you, Katak-" she would try to say, but he would stop her. "Kata is fine, Kai." He would state, as they would talk. It fades to white.

Kata sighs, gently tying his long, brown hair up into a ponytail before heading out.
