Invisible Strings | Katsuki Bakugou

Declaration of war and training

"Same", Uraraka and Momo raised their hand.

"I think Bakugou's gonna win, Lenora doesn't want to absolutely obliterate him, right?", Denki asked, putting his bet on the boy.

"Agree, Bakugou will be the definitive winner", Kirishima was not happy with that but his thoughts are yelling that the explosive boy would be the best that day.

Izuku was silent, taking mental notes of their moves.

"Len's a beast when she uses her quirk, don't underestimate her", he mumbled, standing with girls' on Len's side.

"How can Bakugou resist the urge to touch her butt?", Mineta was drooling, not leaving for a sec Lenora's ass.

Sero cringed, hitting him hard on the head, "Can you stop being a creep, jeez."

"That was deeply inappropriate from you, Mineta!", Iida scolded him too.

"Shhh! They're starting!", Mina shushed them, hiding better behind the wall where they were, only their heads pocking out.

On the battlefield, Lenora had already activated her air rune and the mutation one, so she was floating a few meters from the ground, her long black claws already put her runes on display for everyone to see.

"Your move", she gave Katsuki a pointy-teeth smirk to which he replied with a big jump. He used his explosion to move toward her in the air, ready for a front attack.

Len widened her arms, moving a large portion of air to create wind with her hands. Once his fire reached her, she captured it in her wind whirls, sending it back straight to him. He avoided the burning breeze, taking one of her ankles and pulling the girl down. Katsuki let go of her before her clawed kick could cut off his head, groaning. He backed up quickly, the thick smoke made it very hard to see through it, so he was surprised by some roots hooking him.

"FUCK OFF!", he yelled, burning the roots with his palms and going for a high kick right in the smoke. Lenora was so sure she was getting closer silently but of course, he knew her too well, hitting her right into the scarred nose.

Katsuki grinned, finally able to know where she was. Lenora used the same runes over and over during battles and she had activated three.

Means you can't use more, witch.

He gripped the straps of her bra, flipping her off on the ground.

"Just say I win so we can end this shit show!"

But when the smoke finally disappeared, he noticed how bright her eyes were and her bloody smile creeped him out.

"No", her voice was low, almost a growl, and in a second everything went black.

Katsuki was met with nothingness, all around him was pitch black. His head lowered just to notice that Lenora wasn't there anymore.

"OI! WITCH! WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU HIDING?!"

A cold breeze passed behind him and Katsuki cracked an explosion in that direction, but nothing came out. Another breeze and another explosion. He could feel his hands starting to hurt.

"I'm here", Lenora's voice was a whisper that passed near his right ear, scaring him more than what he wanted to admit.

The boy was turning back and forth, confused. His eyes were twitching, trying to figure a way out but he couldn't see anything.

"Just say I win so we can end this shit show", she used his words against him.

"No way I'm giving up."

"I was sure you'll say this."

And then the brightest light he had ever seen hit him completely, making him fall quite a few meters back on the ground. He needed to squeeze his eyes so he couldn't see the metal chains that wrapped around his body and hands, making it impossible to move further.

"The fuck..."

When he finally was able to see again, he noticed that he was trapped, Lenora was her normal self, smirking from above.

Katsuki tried to get rid of the chains but they were too tight and the metal seemed fireproof.

"So?", she asked him, crossing her arms on her chest.

The boy struggled a little more before giving up, groaning, "Take this shit off me, witch."

Len kneeled in front of him, touching the chains. Using her hands, she helped them free Katsuki and shaped them back into her rings. Katsuki was stunned.

"What the hell was that?!", he pushed her hard, making her fall on her butt.

Lenora sighed, "Darkness rune. Sorry, I figured out it was the only way to beat you. Or maybe the easiest 'cause you never saw it in action."

The boy stood up without looking back at her, "Tomorrow, same thing. Be ready. When the Sports Festival comes I'll know all your stupid runes like the palm of my hand. You'll need to do more to beat me, witch."

Lenora stayed on the ground while watching him walk away, "Promise to never hold back?", she yelled.

Katsuki stopped but didn't turn. In the end, he didn't reply, and Lenora puffed her cheeks, disappointed.

"Hope you guys bet on me!", she called her friends out, making them all flinch and fall on each other.

Katsuki could hear her laugh even at that distance.

Only a fool would hold back against you.
