Extra

Both of them were taken to mend their injuries...mostly that Y/N caused herself. She was still feeling a bit lightheaded though.

Her friends came to visit her except Ochaco. Kyoka said, "I had no idea you got these moves under your sleeves."

"Uhh...yeah, me neither." Y/N said in a strained voice, "I-I am so sorry. I didn't kno-"

"Oh please don't apologize. This was a competition and you gave your best." Shiozaki smiled.

When Y/N felt better, she decided to look for Ochaco and wish her luck.

Ochaco was always the cheerful one in the group, always positive. But this was the first time that Y/N her nervous so much. In her situation, Y/N would've been the same. She knows her quirk is a strong one, but she still doesn't have as much control as Bakugou does. And going against with someone who's physical strength is as powerful as their mental strength isn't easy. Ochaco was going to go against that.

Y/N knew that Bakugou was going to win. Even though Ochaco had her brains and zero gravity as a quirk, it is hard to bring him down. Bakugou's single blast towards her was enough to throw her out of the boundaries. And knowing him, he wasn't the type to go easy on someone just based on their gender or capability. If someone was fighting with him, he would make sure that they fight with what he is, his true power. It wasn't about just strength to him. Y/N felt that Bakugou would show a person how weak they are compared to him, just so that they get back up and be stronger, and ofcourse fight him again.

".....So he's like a grumpy old man." Y/N mumbled, watching her friends enter the arena as a small smile crept up on her face , "Well, I'm grandma to him too."

"Awww, how cute. Cheering for your boyfriend?" Kyoka nudged her.

"Oh shut up." Y/N said blushing a little.

Kyoka stared her face for sometime and asked, "What happened? You look...happy. I mean, way happier than I have seen before."

"Nothing just...Bakugou seemed different when we were talking back there. He....tried to cheer me up."

"NO FUCKING WAY."

Y/N chuckled watching her friend's reaction, "In a negative manner but I knew what he meant."

"Ofcourse you did. Oh the match is starting."

"You're the one who screws around with gravity. Right pink cheeks?" Bakugou asked looking at his opponent.

"Pink cheeks?!" Ochaco exclaimed.

Y/N would never admit it but she did feel a bit jealous. "I mean, grandma for me and pink cheeks for her?!" She thought, "Whatever. I hope Ochaco kicks his stupid ass."

"Well if you're gonna give up, do it now. Cause I'm not gonna hold back." Bakugou said.

"Sometimes I just have this strong urge to slap him, I swear." Y/N mumbled.

"Giving up is not an option!" Ochaco said.

The fight looked unbearable. Bakugou was not at all holding back on her. While a part of Y/N thought that it's good that Ochaco was facing his true powers, she couldn't help but feel bad for her. Even though she had a good plan up her sleeve, it took one blast from Bakugou to end it all. Going back to the waiting room, it was strange to see her unaffected about the fight. For someone who rarely showed her true emotions, Y/N knew that her friend was in fact holding back and didn't want to break down in front of them. The least she can do is to give her some space and that's exactly what Y/N did.

Back in the stands, while everyone was calling him a villain to annoy him, Bakugou observed the seats and found Y/N in the same place where they sat. Except, now Kaminari and Sero were sitting with her. He quietly sat beside her and grumbled, "I definitely wouldn't call that girl frail." in response to the classmates talking about Ochaco. Y/N looked at him and noticed light bruises on his cheeks . "Did you not go to recovery girl?" She asked looking at his hand. "I've got spray for pain relief." There was no doubt that it definitely sprained his hands when he used his quirk that fast and with that shot. "And don't worry, Ochaco is kinda sulky but she'll be back to being herself."

"Did I ask grandma?" Bakugou shouted, "I don't need your stupid spray!"

"Oh please, give your stupid masculinity a rest." Y/N said taking out the spray, "Either use it or I'll apply it on you myself."

"Shut up!" Bakugou said snatching the spray from her hands. He would never allow her to do something like this in front of others. "Or anyone as a matter of fact." He thought and looked back at her tired demeanor. She was being way nicer than she has ever been and something about that didn't sit right with him. What was she planning? Why was she being so...gentle with him all of a sudden.

"God, stop glaring. You can just tell me to take back my spray." Y/N said, chuckling.

"Oh my bro wasn't glaring." Kaminari said with a smirk on his face, looking at Bakugou.

Something about that made him feel self-conscious and he blurted out, "Shut up! I don't even care about stupid extras! Why would I fucking stare?!"

"Ah...now that stung a little." Y/N thought, as she forced a small smile on her face and said, "Stop it, Kaminari." She pat him on his shoulder and looked at the arena as Midoriya finally cracked Todoroki, and he used his fire. It ended with Todoroki as the winner as Midoriya fell unconscious and out of bounds.

It was now Y/N vs. Iida and although Iida had his speed Y/N was quick to use her quirk when they were near the boundaries. She jumped and back-flipped, using him as support and took the opportunity to kick Iida out of line. It was over in a minute, it was fast but Y/N knew he was going to use his high speed to throw her out.

Either that or he would use his speed and attack her suddenly for which Y/N planned to use her quirk on his biggest strength but which also can be considered as his weakness - his feet. If she used a fair amount of her quirk on his calves, his quirk would actually stop working for a long time. And it would be easy for her to throw him out. Iida chose the first option. But using her quirk all of a sudden and with great amount of force was making her light-headed.

Y/N was not in the stands with her friends anymore. She didn't need any kind of distraction when her next opponent was the one who out-witted her in losing the first training that they had. Ofcourse she needed to work on her skills because she really believed that because of her being not that good in studies, she wasn't good either in the field when it is actually needed. Strategy is one of the strongest factors in fights and which some people like Midoriya and Tokoyami can come out with, in an instant - something that Y/N didn't have. None of the heroes were perfect and she knew no one can ever be perfect, but now wasn't the time to dwell on that fact. The only thing that she can do is understand how Todoroki worked and come up with a plan according to that.

She planned on using the last move she used with Shiozaki but the thing is...she had no idea how she did it. All she remembered was her trying to keep all the vines out of her hands and the fact that she moved around a lot. But except for that she had nothing.

Coming in the arena, she heard the crowd cheering loud. It was infact, a good match for the audience. Water against fire and ice. But something was wrong. Yes, Y/N felt scared. If she knew better then Todoroki wasn't going to use fire with her.

"Just so you know, I'm not going to hold back." He said.

"I don't want you to." Y/N said.

As soon as the match started Todoroki used his quirk to block Y/N's path wherever she wanted to go. She used her quirk to jump and avoid getting frozen. She used her quirk to speed up and get near him. She planned to use her quirk and release whiplash trick along with hot boiling water which for sure would take him by surprise.

Y/N knew something was wrong the moment she entered the arena. Even though she was trying to be as focused as possible, she couldn't because she wasn't able to hear anything. Her body was slowly giving up. She knew if she had to do something, she needed to do it fast.

And she did. Y/N never moved so fast before, and the speed at which she arrived near Todoroki was so high that if it wasn't for those huge screens, no one would've understood how she got there. Todoroki lit up his left side and moved his hands fast to defend himself as she took the opportunity and hit him on his waist with the move she thought of before. And it did take him by surprise, but not enough as he was quick to use his ice quirk to avoid getting thrown out of the boundaries.

Todoroki used his ice quirk to attack immediately, and Y/N took some time but she dodged. The next moment she was face to face with him. He used the little time to predict her moves and arrive the spot where she was going to be after dodging. She was about to use her trick again, but looking at his face which strangely looked blurry now, something made her stop. He took the opportunity and froze her legs.

"From the starting of the competition, you used your legs more than anything. It's obvious that I just needed to stop-" Todoroki's voice faded, as Y/N closed her eyes, feeling drowsy. She couldn't even life a finger any more. She just didn't have the energy.

When Y/N woke up, she was with Recovery Girl and Midoriya on her left side. "How are you feeling?" She heard Kyoka's voice.

"Ugh..." she groaned as her head felt heavy, "Felt better?"

"Man...did Midoriya get into you head or what?" Kyoka scolded, "Both of you overused your quirk. The move on Shiozaki took a lot outta you Y/N. Try not to strain yourself much now."

"So...is the festival over??" Y/N asked. Just like everyone else, even she was curious about who will win if Bakugou and Todoroki fought with each other.

"No. You're in luck. Also, that purple-haired dude came to visit you." She wiggled her eyebrows, "Someone's getting popular among boys, huh?"

"Shinso." Midoriya corrected, "I didn't know you guys were close."

"If you call days of annoying a guy just to become his friend a move to become popular, then you need to open your eyes. I-I am not...that...visually appealing. Strange when my brother got so many fans. Anyways!" Y/N changed the topic quickly, "Sorry Midoriya, I knew about his quirk but I just couldn't tell you about it. He...looked like he trusted me and I just-"

"Oh don't worry about that. After hearing him, I can understand why you did that." Midoriya chuckled.

"Okay chill, don't sulk now." Kyoka said, "Oh and just so that you know, the photographers clicked a very....controversial image of you. And I'm sure it's gonna be on the front page of several newspapers and all over the social media."

"Fuck the media." Y/N said, gradually getting more annoyed with them. She knew how her family was also going to be dragged in everything that she gets involved in. It's almost like she has cameras on her all the time and it is just during the festival but she was already getting tired of them.

"Y/N," Midoriya called her, "I saw you and....I know that if you wanted, you could've used that move once again and this time with much more force and speed, which surely would've been enough to strain him down. But...you just stopped in the middle. It's not like something you would....do..."

"I just couldn't do it. I don't know if you have noticed but....whatever happened to his face wasn't something that he was born with. Some kind of accident happened, and going by the type of burn...I know what that caused." Y/N looked at him, "I have made mistakes when I was a child and had no control over my quirks."

Midoriya cleared his throat and looked away at the door, "We should go. The final match is going to be in a few minutes." Y/N observed his face. Even he had some secrets that he was avoiding to tell her.

She felt it. They've drifted apart and now were close friends, just not best friends anymore.
