*in which the heros, and aizawa, youe teacher, raid an underground tournament fight, and find you in there*
is this heavily insipired by toph from atla? yes. earthbending quirk.
<orphan you>
**
the underground, illegal tournaments are a very big deal in japan. they are so popular, and yet so hard to get into, or even just to watch. your only way in is only by knowing the right people.
they are obviously illegal for a reason. no permits, no regulations, and no rules. people get injured there horribly, and even die, and the winning money is of course, embezzeled, illegitimate money.
but yet, so much money.
this is one of the reasons the heros and the police are trying to stop them.
its one of the reasons people take part in them.
"recently, one of our undercover workers has finally fot a few tickets to the next tournament" the policeman explains to aizawa.
he came to his house in evening time, when finally he wanted to relax after teaching, but suddenly the cop showed up.
"and what does that have to do with me?" he asks the cop as he sits before him, giving him water.
"well, you are a rather unknown hero and we would like you to go in with some other people to access the situation before we go in, guns out" the cop explains.
and of course, shouta agrees. he doesnt mind helping, this is his job, this is what he signed up for.
as hes getting dressed like a normal civilian and ties back his hair, with another guy who got the tickets, he wonders what hes going to see there.
hes seen people after the tournaments, injured, dead, concussed with no memory of who they are.
he wonders if its going to be horribly disgusting and dirty, and if everyone there is just going to be sparring.
he drives himself and the undercover cop in a rented car outside of town, to a small village in the middle of nowhere, that has practically just one street on it.
"the forces are going to be outside, when you see its a good time to go in, you let us know in this earpiece" they are both instructed.
he parks outside carefully, noticing that there are a lot of cars and bikes everyone around this tiny village.
as they leave, he walks by the undercover as they go into a pub.
they walk right up to the bartender and he orders, "two pints and we want just the foam". aizawa thinks the code is very weird but it works, and the bartender takes out his phone and scans the tickets and checks their IDs, of course they are fake and brand new with different names and details.
aizawa even shaved for this.
the bartender yells something into the kitchen, and a woman opens the backdoor, signaling them to come in.
they follow her through corridors and stairs for a long 15 minutes until they get to the end, just a lift that goes down and down.
when they exit, the woman leaves them to soak in their surroundings.
its a huge arena, with rows on seats going all the way up to 30 rows in a big circle around the big right ring in the middle, and right before it there is a high booth that overlooks the ring.
theres a 31th row as well, but its way above and has rails above it, and aizawa sees security guards standing around, just a meter away from each other. so many of them.
but not more then the crowd. every seat is taken, people are everywhere, with food, drinks, yelling and they need to push their way to find some place.
shouta definatly feels out of place, but he hears his partner say "place is swamped, not a meter is free. so many people"
finally, they find themselves some place to stand at, pretty close to the ring.
of course there are about 10 people that they are looking for and know who they are by pictures and details, but there are more. a lot more.
they stand there and wait, just waiting for anything to happen while shouta looks around.
he spotted a few of the targets, but not enough.
but soon enough, the mic was on.
"welcome everyone to the end match of the tournaments, the last match of the season, the spar you are all excited for, the most impressive fight!" the announcer yells from the booth.
shouta recognized him as another man from the wanted list.
the crowd hollers and jumps and screaming, people going wild as they cheer.
"and tonight, we have with us the best fighters we have seen in some time!" shouta is almost excited to see who they are.
"the rules are simple! just knock the other fighter out of the ring, or just out, and you win!" he yells.
concerning.
"on this side we have the angel slayer!" the screams that go around the crowd are loud as people jump and yell, cheering.
soon, the man comes out. he has four big tenticles instead of arms. he has a big wide smile across his face as his tentacles act as arms and carry him, and he spins and yells and pumps himself up on the ring.
hes getting pushed around a lot in the cheering crowd, but he still stands his ground.
it seems that his partner isnt, because hes not by him anymore, and they have seperated.
"and the next fight, your champion, the earthbender!"
at this name the crowd goes wild with cheering and jumping, whisteling and screaming and it feels like the whole ground shakes, and its getting so hot in there, not shoutas favourite scene for his nights.
the crowd is abaolutly blasting, and through some jumping people and hands, he finally sees someone short get on the ring before the angel slayer.
and his heart drops down.
wearing just a pair of flowy pants and a shirt with long bell sleeves, with a relaxed face with a tiny smirk, {H/C} hair shining in the blinding lights, stands his student.
{Y/N} {L/N}.
his mouth falls open without him knowing, and his hands shake.
is it really you?
you lift up your hand with a fist up, your bell sleeve falling down and revealing your bandaged hand.
you are also not wearing shoes, which he already knows you do, to feel the earth under you.
he knows you do it, hes seen you do it in trainings, and honestly in general you never wear shoes, nothing more then covers around your ankles, but never shoes.
his eyes shake as he looks at you longer and longer, taking in the fact that you are in the final tournament of the underground fights, and the whole crowd is cheering for you like mad people.
hes being pushed around as they jump and cheer, but he can barely move.
he cant move even when the announcer yells at everyone to shut up, and as he counts back, all falls silent.
"i feel bad for fighting a little girl" your opponent says.
he is full of mouscles, and he honestly looks scary and big. towering you in both hight and power in his mouscles.
the only thing that leaves your mouth is a laugh. that same cheeky laugh, that you do everytime.
"to me it sounds like you are scared of the leading champion, fishboy" you mock him as you cross your arms and lean back with a hearty laugh.
shouta is frozen, he cant move his eyes from you and he wants to see what happens next, but he wants to get you out of there as soon as possible.
you cant be here. you cant be fighting. youll get injured. youll get hurt. you could die.
"whos that?" he suddenly decides to ask some man beside him.
the man laughs at him and shakes his head.
"new, huh?" he asks. shouta simply nods, still looking ahead.
"thats the earthbender. shes a fucking beast. noone ever won her" he explains.
does that mean you killed people here? destroyed lives?
soon, the fight starts and shoutas head falls silent with fear as the angel slayer extands his huge, mouscly tentcles at you and tries grabbing you.
you dont do anything beside rolling over to the side and lifting up the ground under the man and try flying him up to the air, but his tentcles quickly pull him back down to the ground, one of them again extanding to you.
the way you move is like you are almost dancing, your hands and feet moving in strict motions, but your feet keeping on the ground, gliding gently.
he tries pushing forward, scared for you, wanting to get you out.
you keep fighting, you throw some rocks at him and he catchs them and chucks them back.
you give a kick to the ground, and a wave goes all the way through the ring until it just gets his foot, and drags him down until he hits the ground.
"honestly, i reccomand you just walk out" you comment again in a laugh.
you dont need long in this fight.
he stands up again, but with a hit of your legs to the ground and your hands doing some movenents, small walls build around him and you use some more walls to trap his tentcles.
as he tries breaking his tentcles out, you just walk over to him calmly, until you are just before him.
the crowd is hollering and going mad as you do so, yelling and cheering.
finally you stand before him and plant your hand to his face, and push him down into the ground, up to his neck, and bury his tentcles down with him.
he looks up at you and starts yelling and laughing, but you take a look around, fake a yawn and look up at the judges and the announcer.
then, you kick the ground again and raise him, still inside of a big boulder, and chuck him all the way out of the ring.
people quickly jump away, on other people, getting away from the boulder with the angel slayer inside it before it hits the ground.
soon, a few half naked ladies run onto the ring as the people go even wilder then before, hollering and screaming so loudly shouta thinks his ears are bleeding.
soon they are for sure bleeding, because just after the announcer yells, "and again, the earthbender is still the leading, unbeatable champion!" present mic screams outside of the arena, and all the walls break down.
its not long before the heros and the police are inside, yelling and arressting and stopping people from going anywhere.
only now does shouta realize he was so trancefixed on you, he didnt hear anything from the earpiece.
hes too busy staring at you, who just went to grab the championship belt from the ladies, and now you are being tackled down by 4 heros and police officers, pinning you to the ground by your hands and legs, and shackling you.
he still cant think anything, because he is in shock.
hes in shock all the way out of the arena, asscorted by his best friend present mic, who is also very confused about seeing you there.
hes in shock as he gets back in the rented car with the man he was seperated from, and all the way to the police station.
as he parks, his feet carry him in.
the station is swamped with people who were involved, those who were caught in the event, but he keeps walking.
"i want to speak with her" he says to the detective who was just about to go and interrogate you.
"i-im her teacher" he mummbles out.
finally, the policeman let him in.
inside, he finds you shackled to the table by your hands and feet, and your head is leaning boredly to the side.
"are you okay?" is the first question he asks as he walks in.
as you hear the familiar voice, you tense up and swallow nervously.
"well" you sigh-he can hear the shake in your voice- "i just won 4.5 millions dollars, but i dont think ill be getting them" you say, giving a small chuckle at the end.
"i asked if you are okay. if you are hurt" he clears his question as he sits before you.
"im not hurt. im fine. im always fine. theres a reason why im the champion" you say clearly.
"why... why do you do that? you have your entire life planned out, a promising hero with unmatchable power. why do you do that?" he finally asks.
"why?" you give a chuckle and look around. "first of all, did you hear how much money i just said? how do you think im supposed to support myself with my parents dead? no coffee shop pays enough my age to pay rent, which i dont need to do since these things allowed me to own a house for myself!" you announce, proudly.
"and, these fights... they are something that you dont understand" you shake your head.
"unlike you, my quirk is me. its an extantion of my body. its me" you point to yourself, unable to move your hands much, "its like music, and painting. its an art. its my personality. unlike you, i feel it. i feel the earth inside me. i feel footsteps and i feel rain, i feel mother nature. i am one with my quirk, and its me. my quirk is power you cant understand, mr aizawa"
the way you speak is hypnotizing, with so much feelings and so much passion.
"in the tournaments i feel my quirk and i feel my power. im learning. im improving. im learning my limits and my powers, and im growing. using my quirk is vibrations through my entire body, waves of passion" you explain.
"i see you cant understand it, because even if you try, you dont feel it" you sigh.
theres silence.
"what am i gonna do with you?" he sighs and puts his hand out on yours, the shackled hand, fingers tied together.
"when you touch me, i feel your breath and your heartbeat inside me. my quirk is completly me" you try again.
"i was so worried for you" he admits in a whisper.
hes telling the truth. you feel it.
