My Angel

Cavalry Battle

Sora could feel their auras tensing up and focusing on Midoriya. Must be hard, taking the brunt of being the top.

" Now then, I will explain the rules of the cavalry battle." Midnight flailed her whip at the screen as she explained further. Their time limit was 15 minutes. The headbands that they needed to grab from other teams' riders had to be put on from the neck onward.

" So you should be careful with your choice." Yuu pointed, arms crossed in front of his chest. " Aiming to gather as much regardless of the value wouldn't work here like in the practical exam. If you overdo it you will be suffocating before the end of the game."

" So true." Sora blinked. " So you need to get as few but as valuable headbands as you could."

What was more worrying is the fact that teams won't be out in the game. For the whole fifteen minutes, there will be at least twelve teams roaming the area. " That will be troublesome."

Midnight gave them fifteen minutes to build their teams. Groups started forming as each one of them tried to find a suitable team.

" Sora."

She blanked when she was called and snapped her head back to a certain orange head. " Kendo-san!"

The girl waved at her with a smile. " Itsuka is fine. It's been a while, couldn't come to contact with you since the start of the year."

" Yeah, it was quite a busy schedule for both of us I guess." She rubbed the back of her neck.

" Either way, let me get to the point. Would you like to join me for this game?" Itsuka offered with a wide grin.

" Huh?"

As they continued talking, Yuu trudged away from them, Whisper finally letting go of him. He will be more helpful as a ghost for the next game rather than taking over the boy.

" Sora got recruited, I should find a team too." He flicked his look around worriedly . Most of them huddled around Bakugo, wanting to team with him. Todoroki had already formed a team with Yaoyorozu, Iida and Kaminari.

" Each class seems to have formed teams among themselves." Whisper pointed out.

As the time ticked by, the teams already formed and Yuu stood in the middle, shifting his head in distraught as he was the only one left alone.

" What are you waiting for?! Any team! Just find any team!" Yelped Whisper.

" It's not that simple..." Yuu sweated, desperately trying to spot a team lacking in number. The thought that he might end up eliminated just because he couldn't get into a team overwhelmed him.

" Yuu!" The boy blinked as a certain white head ran to him, wiggling her hand upwards.

" Sora?"

" Where did you run off? I frankly thought you joined someone."

" Eh? Sora, you didn't join that girl from earlier?"

" Of course not." She smiled. " I've already decided that I would be teaming up with you."

Yuu's eyes glazed over before they literally send waterfalls of tears. " Sora!! You're my angel!"

The girl merely cackled at him while Whisper squeezed his neck to shut down his tear rivers. " Will it be alright, just the two of you?"

" What're you talking about, Whisper?" Her grin broadened confidently. " We're exactly the right number."

" Huh?!" Both blinked.
