Chapter 18

After all the teams were marked down, the groups of students separated on the battlefield and got into formation.

"L/n-san, you'd better be ready." stated Shishida gruffly.

Tsunotori cheerfully put a fist in the air. "Let's do our best, you guys!!"

"We're going to win this," Monoma reassured himself.

Y/n licked her lips nervously.

"Three! Two! One! START!!"

With the shriek of a whistle, the next game began!

As the students of UA continued their festival, Kurogiri sat on the tattered red couch by the TV, lifting small weights while he watched. His biceps strained each time he lifted one of the small barbells, but not too much that it would annoy him while he watched the show in front of him. Since his master never contacted him for anything but orders, and Tomura never spoke to him unless he wanted a meal or wanted to go somewhere, he had pretty much every day to himself. He didn't even have any limits of where he was allowed to go; he could pretty much go anywhere and no one in the league could care less. To them, he was just a tool to be used during battle to transport and kill when necessary. It was a strange thing that Kurogiri had only become aware about these facts recently since he had been with the league for so long. He assumed that it had something to do with meeting that girl... Y/n L/n.

Observing the event playing out on the Television, he watched as the green-haired student, the announcer called him Midoriya, strategized with his team to defend their headbands from attacking groups. They were doing surprisingly well, and almost snagged another team's 100 points, but then something amazing happened.

The ground beneath Midoriya's team caved in, and led the team that just lost it's ability to fly to its doom. A horse-like student galloped towards the hole with her team mostly on her back, and then jumped over the hole gracefully, allowing the rider and two supporting horses to grab some headbands from the fallen team. Kurogiri's glowing eyes grew large. What a turnaround!

"WOW!! Team L/n grabs two headbands from team Midoriya, gaining 10,000,010 points and lifting them up to FIRST PLACE!!"

Kurogiri shrugged. With that quirk of hers, it was only natural that Y/n would get in first. It was honestly not that interesting of a development. But then he heard the crowd start cheering again, and turned back to the screen. A blond haired student used his explosive quirk to throw Y/n's team's leading horse off track, causing them to trip and letting the other group of students grab a headband.

Y/n yelled in despair and anger, causing the blond to flinch hard in surprise. Another team with a leader who had red and white hair suddenly approached the two quarreling sets of students. He wasted no time in spreading ice all around the h/c haired girl's team, trapping them and his own squad in a dome of crystalline ice.

The warpgate user sat at the edge of the couch. Would- would the girl be alright...? Oh, he shouldn't be thinking of things like this. She was currently his enemy. All of UA was technically the League's enemy. He shouldn't care about what happens to anyone there. In fact, he should revel in the fact that some students might not be okay; it would make his job so much easier. So why did he keep worrying about her?

"You're not getting away from this, L/n-san. Make it easy on yourselves and hand over the headband!" shouted Iida-kun, despite being only two meters away from her team. The other three students on the opponent's squadron said nothing, except for Todoroki-kun who just glared at them.

"Monoma-kun, can you-?"

Monoma smirked. "Already on it," he said, making a tiny wisp of snow flutter around his index finger. He then looked Todoroki in the eyes. "Excuse me, Mr. Candy Cane hair. As if we're going to just give our headbands to you. You're just going to have to fight for it, like everyone else."
