11 Chapter 11

For the rest of the week, our class spent the majority of our time training. Everyone was training in one way or another, whether it be power, endurance, or control.

he was working on my control over his haki and {WATER STREAM ROCK SMASHING FIST} he just has to focus and concentrate to maintain the haki on his fist

He also meets up with Midoriya who was training on the beach.

"Yo izuku, see you're working hard," Sora says to him

"Yeah I can't be left behind," Midoriya said taking deep breaths.

"Come let's go have a drink," Sora says taking out the two drinks that he bought

"Yeah"

"So how are you feeling about the UA sports Tournament," Sora asked him

"I have not thought about it but I've decided this is going to be and please I'm going to let the whole world know I am here," Midoriya said

"haha sounds very like you but do you think you have a chance against me"

"that's another thing I want to do. before I entered UA you at the time were the one who taught me. you didn't look down on me, you didn't I think because I didn't have a quirk that I was not going to make it now I want to prove to you that I can also be a great hero" He says with determination in his eyes.

Sora looks at him "all right then good luck"

"but if you want to beat me don't think the strength that I showed you during training is my actual strength" Sora added

"yeah I already thought about that it won't be easy"

Sora and Midoriya chatted for a while before Sora walks back to the orphanage.

*Next Day*

"SORA!!! YOUR GOING TO BE LATE" aunty Nona called out

"I'm going! I'm going!" Sora said as he wore his shoes

"alright take care we will all be cheering for you"

"Okay" he waved at her

As he was walking through the campus, he saw many food stalls, banners, games, and other things that one would usually find at a festival. There was an abundance of heroes that were acting for security which wasn't that surprising as they were just attacked by villains last week.

In the lounge everyone else seated, changing, and talking excitedly about the upcoming events.

"Aww I wish that I could wear my hero costume," Mina complains as puts on her shoes.

The tail guy looks at her, "Well to make it fair, we can't."

Deku was in a corner with Uraraka and Iida muttering things about people's quirks, "The strongest three in Class 1-A are Kacchan, Todoroki, and Sora especially."

"Why are you so worried about Sora," Uraraka asked

"That is because Sora doesn't have a known weakness" he answers "be it attack, defense, or speed he has it all covered"

"Yeah he could keep up that Nomu thing" lida agreed

"Midoriya" Todoroki calls out

"What is it?" Midoriya asks not knowing why he was looking for him.

Everybody in the class looks interested in what he was about to tell him.

"Looking at things objectively I think I'm stronger than you. but for some reason, All Might has his eyes on you. I'm not trying to pry or anything but I'm going to beat you and Mei." Todoroki said

Everybody in the class was shocked about the declaration of war that he just made to their classmates

"I don't know what you think when you say that you will beat me. but I don't think you are stronger than me. even if it is true everyone is aiming for the top so I can't afford to be left behind" Midoriya says

"You tell him" a voice came

Todoroki looks over and notices Sora walk in and heads towards him. The room goes silent as the tension grows between the two of us.

Todoroki begins to speak, "You are strong Mei, and you may have bested me during the mock combat. However today I will prove that I am stronger than you."

"Well good luck on that." he walks past him and heads to his locker to change into his uniform.

After a little longer, a staff member walks into the room and says that we are going out soon and all preparations should start finishing up

.

We start to walk towards the entrance and hear Present Mic's loud voice booming throughout the stadium, "The miraculous new stars who overcame enemy attacks with their hearts of steel. Hero Course, Class 1-A!!!"

they walk onto the field to a tumultuous amount of screaming and cheering. Most people look around nervously and are trembling a little. After all the UA sports festival is one of the biggest events in Japan.

Present Mic continues to announce the classes, "They haven't been getting as much air time, but this class is also full of talent, Hero Course Class 1-B!" From another door, a group of people walks out. They were also met with rounds of applause and cheering. Class 1-B, our next-door neighbors, who strangely haven't seen much of it until now.

"Next up, General studies, Classes C, D, and E!! And Business course, Classes I, J, and K! All of UA's first years are here now!"

For these two groups, the crowds were not as enthusiastic but enough so that most people won't be able to tell the difference.

Midnight steps up onto the stage and announces that it is time for the player to pledge. Her outfit startles many of the students and appeals to much of the audience. After all, she isn't the R-rated hero for nothing.

"Now it is time for the player pledge. Representing the students is Mei Sora from Class 1-A."

Sora walks up to the stage.

"Well, I wasn't informed of this so I'll keep it short. This festival is just one of my paths to becoming a hero. now that I'm here, I pledge to take the number one spot. And if you think you can take it I welcome the challenge. would be boring otherwise." Sora said and then walked off the stage.

It takes a moment for the words to sink into everyone. Bakugo and Todoroki are giving him death stares, while the others were concerned about how that would affect the upcoming events. The other classes were pissed.

"YOU BASTARD!"

He just smiles and ignored his fellow students and gets back in line.

The heroes that came for scouting looked where just plain shocked at the arrogance of this kid. The staff was just mildly surprised as they knew his capabilities and knew that he wasn't just talking.

Midnight takes the reins again after his speech.

"The first event will be a qualifier, now let's decide."

"THE OBSTACLE COURSE RACE!!! The course will be around the edge of the stadium, which is around 4 kilometers. Our school's selling point is freedom. As long as you stay on the track, it doesn't matter what you do to win. Now take your positions."

Everyone lined up in front of a door, and the countdown began.

"5...4...3...2...1... START!!!"
