rTem NOT CORRECTED YET, I KNOW THERE ARE SEVERAL MISTAKES BUT I DON'T HAVE TIME TO CORRECT THEM!

...

"5 minutes left!" Midnight announced.

The battle had reached a stalemate for most of the teams. The only teams that were still actively moving were....

"Midoriya..." Todoroki said seriously as he looked Midoriya in the eyes, the latter seemed to be surprised to have met Todoroki since he didn't deserve interested in the Ten Million Points.

"H-Hello Todoroki, how c-can I help you?" asked Midoriya as he looked for a way out of his current situation. Encountering Todoroki's team was fatal for his team, the main reason being fatigue.

Neither Uraraka, nor Mei, were people who specialized in strength or endurance, so far they were able to hold their own thanks to Mei's inventions, Uraraka's mobility and Tokoyami's Defense (Dark Shadow is a giant lifesaver).

But they had spent 10 minutes in constant fighting with other teams and were tiring quickly.

"Why don't you give me that bandana?" asked Shoto with an indifferent look on his face.

"I-I refuse" Midoriya replied with sweat running down his forehead. They were surrounded by the other teams, fortunately none of them had made a move for fear of Todoroki....

"That's a pity. Lida" ordered Todoroki, a moment later Lida activated his Quirk to move quickly towards Midoriya. Reacting quickly Midoriya ordered his team to move back to try to stay away from Todoroki.

"They're in the way..." Todoroki muttered before freezing the surroundings along with the participants.

"WHAT THE-"

"SON OF-"

That bandana is mine... Todoroki thought with determination as he focused on his prey.

 

 

"This is boring don't you think?" Spoke Lena suddenly, you could hear the boredom in her voice and if it wasn't for the fact that they were in constant motion she would have fallen asleep on top of Shoji.

"Um" Hummed Shoji in affirmation to Lena's comment, although he couldn't complain it was the best way to earn points....

 

 

Kyoka was not having a good time.

Not at all.

Several groups were chasing her like she was a big celebrity or a super model.

And honestly she was fed up but she couldn't complain she was Top 3 on the scoreboard, surprisingly she had managed to overtake

Todoroki's group in points which made her proud.

But now she was in a big mess because of that lead.

Quickly glancing at the stadium screen she saw the current Ranking:

...

-Ranking-
Team Midoriya
Team Oxton
Team Sero
Team Monoma

...

That was another thing she missed a lot.

Where was Lena? There hadn't been a trace of them since the start of the test....

"Shit! They're still following us like rabid dogs!" shouted Sero, pulling Kyoka away from her inner thoughts.

"Let me try something!" Toru shouted as he swiftly moved an arm towards his back, suddenly a large light shot out from his palm blinding all the Teams behind him.

"GAH!"

"MY EYES!"

"Now run!" Toru warned his team who quickly ran away from the Teams stunned by Toru's Flashbang.

"Wait a minute!" Sero shouted as he turned his elbows before firing a very sticky tape at the Teams feet, immobilizing them for what Sero hoped would be a long time. "That should get the others off our backs for a while..."

"Then let's move on, I'd like to avoid Todoroki and Midoriya's Team if possible... I'd like to look for Lena and try to get the bandana off her, but I haven't been able to locate her" Kyoka suggested as they moved at a moderate pace around the arena.

"I agree with you... by the way girls, aren't you tired?" asked Sero, surprised by Kyoka and Toru's endurance, if he remembered correctly Kyoka wasn't very good on the physical side, or at least she didn't show it in the Aizawa Test.

What Sero didn't know was that Kyoka had been doing an exercise routine together with Lena since she almost started school, which led her to gain a lot of stamina thanks to that hellish training. She also changed her body a little bit, gaining a little height and defining her muscles, but only a little bit.

In Toru's case, she was already athletic before coming to UA, although not at Lena's level.

"Nah, I can go on for a while longer, though I'd like to take a breather after this test..." Kyoka said muttering the last part to herself.

"..." Koda just nodded quickly, he too was getting a little tired.

 

 

"1 minute left!"

"Shit" Todoroki said as they stared at Midoriya's team, they had been battling and tried to gain ground, but Midoriya's Team was very fast and sneaky.

Todoroki's team was primarily attacking with a good balance of defense and mobility.

While Midoriya's was mainly mobility and defense, but with very little offense.

The two teams were repelling each other, Todoroki wasn't fast enough to attack and Midoriya didn't have the firepower to counterattack.
It was a stalemate.

"Hey, Todoroki" Lida spoke suddenly, she had never spoken in the whole ordeal to concentrate 100%.

"Um?" Todoroki tilted his head towards Lida, but never took his eyes off Midoriya's Equipment.

"I'm going to use my trump card, hold on tight and get ready to snatch the bandana from them, once I use it I won't be able to use it again"

Lida warned his teammates as he took position.

Suddenly his Engines of brought out a burst of blue, before Lida moved at an absurd speed.

Todoroki almost fell off his horse due to the speed, but managed to hold on and react in time to take the bandana from Midoriya.

...

The stadium fell into silence because of what just happened.

"I-INCREDIBLE!!! AT THE LAST MINUTE TODOROKI'S TEAM MANAGED TO SNATCH THE 10 MILLION POINT BANDANA FROM MIDORIYA'S TEAM!!!" PresidentMic shouted bringing the spectators out of their daze.

""""!!!"""" Shout of shock and excitement sounded from everywhere.

"N-No... w-we must get the bandana back!"

"No!" Tokoyami exclaimed. "We should look for other points from other teams...we don't have time to fight Todoroki."

"But..." Midoriya muttered in frustration, he was working overtime to think of what would be the best plan of action to follow.

"..." Uraraka seeing Midoriya's conflict decided to risk everything and go for Todoroki "VERY WELL LET'S GO FOR THEM!"

 

 

"Time is up! Now the 4 qualified teams will be shown to advance to the last event of the festival!!!" Midnight announced stopping all the participants in their tracks. Some of them cursed their bad luck, some of them fought with their classmates and some of them just burst into tears for being disqualified.

...

-QUALIFIED-
1st - TEAM TODOROKI
2nd - TEAM OXTON
3rd - TEAM SERO
4th - TEAM MIDORIYA

...

"H-How?"

"I managed to steal a bandana from Todoroki at the last minute"

"Waahhh!"

While Midorira did her thing, Lena finally got off Shoji while looking around with a bored look on her face.

"Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to play it safe... whatever"

"I don't agree with that"

"Whatever you say big guy"

As she headed towards Sero's team to congratulate Kyoka and Toru, she was accosted by a Class 1B student with blonde hair and a cocky smile.

"Aren't you ashamed that you were such a coward?" the blond said with arrogance and mockery in his voice. "As expected of Class 1A you're just a couple of good-for-nothings who will do anything to win without caring about-"

"Shut up for a month, you're annoying hadn't they told you that," Lena interrupted with a yawn, before looking the blond in the eyes. "All I see in front of me is a jealous person who can't accept that he lost to someone better than him."

"Jealous?!" Monoma exclaimed in shock she didn't expect to be answered this way.

"And screaming too, the list goes up what a surprise, really, not so much considering you are a fly around me who am a queen" Interrupted Lena again with a mocking and cold smile on her face, she has to admit that the grim face the blond is making is masterful "Will it hurt your fragile manly ego?, what a cute little thing, maybe your mother can help you fix it"

"WATCH WELL YOU BITCH OF- GUH" Shouted the blond, about to insult Lena only to be stopped and hit by a giant fist that knocked him unconscious immediately.

"Sorry about that" Said an orange haired girl quickly with a bow, before dragging the blond out of the stadium.

"That... that was weird."

 

 

"Well... I can't say it wasn't interesting, right?" Said David nodding to himself, the battles were very exciting, there were plot twists and lost battles that turned out to be won.

"I guess... although I wish Lena had acted more actively in the fights" Winston replied in a bittersweet tome.

"I think that's fine, she used logic and her wits to find the easiest way to win" Replied Angela with her arms crossed. "Besides didn't she want to be a rescue heroine..., then she doesn't need to be an expert at fighting just using her wits to save as many people as possible."

"You're right..." Winston said nodding at Angela's comment.

Suddenly David receives an urgent message on his phone, which raises suspicions among Angela and Winston who look questioningly at David.

"...shit" David muttered with a somber face.

"What's up?" asked Winston with concern at David's grim face.

"Apparently... There was a large successful assault against the Tower of Babylon."

""?!"" Immediately Angela and Winston's eyebrows shot skyward in Shock. The Tower of Babylon is the best prison in the world, it is a prison made in collaboration with the UN to contain the biggest villains in Europe and Asia. The vast majority of villains inside their prison are known to cause great damage to various countries either with their strength, intelligence or weapons.

If Tartarus is a prison for potentially dangerous villains at the level of Cities or even countries.

Then the Tower of Babylon is a prison capable of containing Country level villains and weapons.

Although it should be stressed that it's not very common to see villains with that kind of power.

"Who could do that... that prison is the second best prison in the world! Only behind Tartarus!" Winston exclaimed in shock. Attacking that prison successfully and getting out alive... it's impossible, isn't it?

"I know Winston... but that's not the worst of it... apparently one of the 10 Class C prisoners escaped: Doomfist the Destroyer."
