Cavalry Battles are Terrifying

You know, I'm so done.

My entire life I've been told. I'm just useless, someone that could be easily replaced with anything better.

I can't use my quirk with any proficiency, I have no will to talk back, I'm scared of risks.

I'm not going to blame my father too much for this, it's my fault I can't push myself, but I will say, he ruined my life.

Scared of taking chances, scared of people, scared of confrontation, heck, scared of what I can do to people in terms of power.

I know for a fact that my quirk is versatile, adaptable. But I'm scared. Too scared to release it's full potential.

People like me don't deserve such power.

I know damn well I could've have been so much stronger, so much more confident, if only I hadn't listened to what people said.

And now I'm stuck like this.

I don't want to let him down, let them down.

Izuku, he deserves it. Power that doesn't hurt him in such a way only five minutes into battle.

The boy I like.

My heart's pounding at the very thought of the next round- the cavalry battle.

I'm not the only one with this responsibility, thank God, if He even bothers to think of me, that is. But I feel like my teammates, Tokoyami, Hatsume, Izuku. They're all stronger than me. I don't know Hatsume's quirk, but she's incredibly creative, that I can tell only by her gadgets.
Tokoyami, he mostly keeps to himself, but I've seen his quirk a few times, and it's incredible.

Ah, I only feel my stomach dropping to floor.

So why the hell am I here?!

I tried out for U.A. because I wanted to be a hero, I didn't want anyone to suffer, I wanted to help save people from that. I never would have thought I'd end up in this school, with all of these incredible people, with all of these amazing opportunities.

Tokoyami is up front, and I'm at the back, helping with blind spots. Hatsume is right beside me, and we're occupying her gadgets, and I guess that's fair since the ones in the support course are allowed to use them during the festival.

I'm not sure I can do this.

It's okay, [Name], you can totally do this, just stay calm, and focus. Don't think about your newly found crush, don't think of your father, just don't let your team down!

Oh shit no wait this is being broadcasted everywhere, ahh, don't panic!!

"Start!" Midnight cries, cracking that oh-so intimidating whip of hers.

And I swear, almost as soon as those words leave her lips, multiple teams scramble to reach us first.

Well, the ten million.

"It's your call, Midoriya!" Tokoyami calls, and he responds with "Obviously, to run away!"

Then we try to scurry away from the two teams, most notably that one silver haired guy from earlier.

But then someone yells "We won't let you!" A group of Class B students.

One of them uses their quirk to mess with the ground, making is soft and squishy---like quicksand.

"Hatsume, cover your face, and [Name] take cover but use your quirk to help us go faster!" Izuku quickly shouts orders.

He's a good leader, too.

"Got it!" I squint my eyes shut, only having about a half second to prepare myself mentally, move my left arm behind me, and at the same time the jetpack activates, I activate my quirk and both the jetpack and I free us from the quicksand, escaping our first opponent.

The jetpack did most of the work, probably.

We're up in the air, and I'm trying my best to steady ourselves with my quirk.

"I know!" I hear Jirou cry, then her jacks move up to attack us. Then Dark Shadow, which is Tokoyami's quirk, and he seems to have a mind of his own, too, helps deflect them away.

As we being to land, I gradually let my quirk stop, and think these people are amazingly talented.

"Well, how are my babies?" Hatsume eagerly asks.

"They're amazing, these 'babies,' Hatsume!"

"Right?!"

Haha, I swear, [Name], don't be jealous, now is 100% not the time!!

"Shoji?!" Izuku yells in confusion, and I can see why, I mean, the guy is by himself.

And this is supposed to be a team thing.

"We should keep moving, we can't be standing here, waiting for everyone to catch us." Tokoyami suggests.

"Shi-wait! I'm stuck!" I silently curse myself, but then taking a closer look, I realize that it's one of those sticky balls that come from Mineta's quirk.

"Where? Where'd it come from?!" Izuku scans everywhere in search of that crazy, perverted boy.

"From here... Midoriya!" Mineta says sinisterly from Shoji's arms.

Oh, so Shoji isn't alone.

Shoji's arms, and I mean more than two arms, are concealing Mineta, no wonder we thought he was alone.

"Is that even allowed?" Izuku questions.

"Yep!" Midnight confirms.

And almost like lighting, Asui's long, frog-like tongue shoots out from where Shoji and Mineta are. Izuku ducks in time, narrowly missing.

"As expected from you, Midoriya." Asui says.

"Asui!" He cries in surprise.

"I said to call me 'Tsu!'" She says, going back to her hiding spot with Mineta. Then her tongue begins to attack once more, along with Mineta.

"Midoriya, [Last Name], we need to get away!" Tokoyami shouts, and whilst Izuku presses the button to the jetpack, I return my hand to it's position and activate my quirk.

But my foot's still stuck, so Hatsume's baby is broken.

"Ah, my baby!" She cries.

"Sorry, but we had to get away!" Izuku apologizes quickly.

"I'm sorry, Hatsume." I whisper to her.

One of my hands is occupied with keeping our team physically together, the other is helping keep us up in the air.

Then the ear splitting sound of explosions comes and the first thing that comes to mind is Bakugou.

Of course.

"Don't get cocky!" He screams.

Ah, coming from him. I see.

"Tokoyami!" His quirk comes in front of Izuku and Bakugou, and all I hear is Bakugou's swears.

He begins to fall, and I think 'Wow, will he be eliminated?' But then I see Sero has managed to keep Bakugou from falling with his tape.

"Guys, I think it'd be easier if we-" Izuku starts, but doesn't finish. We stumble backwards, and I force myself not to trip or fall.

"Less than half the time remains!" I hear Present Mic shout, and I tell myself to focus.

But his voice is so distracting, and I hear that most of Class A has fallen and Class B has had a surprising amount of people with those points.

Not that it should be shocking. Class B is just another Class A, we're on the same level.

Only difference is we've been getting a lot of coverage with the whole villain attack.

"And who will win those ten million points in the end?!"

God I know this is to hype up the next few minutes but it puts me on edge.

And now, we're facing Todoroki's team.

A damn good team to be honest.

"I'll be taking that." He says coldly.

Oh, boy, this should be... Interesting.
