Chapter 9 | The Sports Festival: Part 1 - Tension

Lunch had passed and so did the rest of the day. As you got ready to leave you hear an agonizing shriek from the front of the class,

"Uh oh... no way out... WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO" Mineta shouted out almost crying, seriously? grow up dude...

"They're scouting out the competition obviously, after all we did survive a villain attack." Bakugo stated as he made his way into the crowd, "BEAT IT YOU DAMN EXTRAS!!!" he shouted causing the entire class's eyes to widen

"You can't just call people 'extras' because you don't know them!! That's rude!" Iida pointed at Bakugo who only scowled at the class rep.

"Man is it true all the hero course kids are like this idiot? That's kinda disappointing..." A purple haired boy steps to the front of the crowd with a tired expression on his face.

"It seems they lowered the standards for hero's these days... for those of us who didn't make it into the hero course, we all got put into general studies and remedial courses. Depending on how the results turn out... the teachers might decide to transfer students like us into the hero course." He continued

"Well in that case I wish you good luck! Oh, and don't worry about this guy-" you peak around the corner of the door, slightly startling the purple haired boy that was talking before. "he's always rude like that..." you whispered the last part while covering your mouth.

The sleepy looking boy stared at you with a look of distaste, "I heard the reverse is also a possibility, so if anything you shouldn't be wishing me luck when you position is being put at risk." He says looking at you causing your eyes to widen partially. "It'll be the perfect chance to knock all of you off your self proclaimed pedestals, take this as a declaration of war." With that the purple haired boy walked away through the crowd, you look back at your friends to see the worried looks on their faces.

you jumped suddenly at a harsh voice coming from the back of the group, "Hey hey, I'm from class B next door!!!" a boy with long eyelashes and silver hair shouts. "Heard you faced real villains and I wanted to see what was up... but all I'm seeing is this arrogant bastard!!!" He shouted some more. "You better not make us hero course kids look bad out there, you hear me?!"

you continued to stare at the boy before you felt Bakugo place his hand on your shoulder, pushing you out of the way. As he shoved you, you hit your left cheek on someone's chest and flinch away in pain, "Oww, ow owwww-" you hissed and rubbed your cheek to try and smooth the pain.

"Hey you jerk what are you doing?! You can't just shove people out of the way, (L/n)'s still recovering! And to add to that you just gave all these people a reason to hate us" Kirishima shouts from behind,

"I'm ok Kirishima thanks for your concern though-" you smile at the red head.

"I don't give a shit, my goal is to get to the top... so why should I care about some empty threats?" The explosive boy says, I think that's the calmest I've ever heard him say something...

"Tch- that was so blunt... and MANLY!" Kirishima says

"He has a point... we're all aiming for the top" Tokoyami adds

'While it may be true that Bakugo can be a huge jerk... he's definitely right about what he said. 'my goal is to get to the top... so why should I care about some empty threats?'' you stood and pondered the words from your classmate,

'If I want to be the hero people can rely on then I can't listen to people's threats!'
