Chapter 19: Chapter 17: Sport's Festival Pt.5 - Midoriya vs. Shinso
"RYU~"
"Oh, hey mom, dad", I turned around to see my mother walking up to me with my dad in tow. They were dressed in casual clothes as opposed to the usual robes they wear at home and the tea house. My mother wearing a white blouse and some black jeans and my father a grey muscle shirt that revealed his greek god-like physique. I swore it looked like it was glistening in the sun, that or it's just my mother's blinding smile.
"Great job in the obstacle course and cavalry battle Ryu. I knew you could do it!", she clapped her hands together cheerily. If I didn't know she was my mother you'd think she was some energetic high school girl.
"That's a lie. She was panicking when you faced the Zero Po-", my father couldn't finish his sentence before getting his ear pinched.
"Ah, ah dear. How could you lie like that to our son? I had the utmost confidence in him, after all, our Ryu is the best".
My father's face remained still like he had facial paralysis but his mouth was sulky, like a puppy being punished. Or well, a big, muscular mastiff. I can almost imagine the floppy ears on his head.
"Hey, Mister and Miss Akutagawa!" Mina, Kirishima, Jiro, and Momo came over and greeted my parents.
"Oh if it isn't Ashido and Kirishima, glad to see you two", my mother suddenly switched from cheerful to her mature persona, calming and setting her expression.
"Whoa Akutagawa, your dad's a total unit man. Nice to meet you, sir. The name's Eijiro Kirishima", he stuck out his hand and my dad grabbed it. I saw both of their muscles tense while gripping each other's hands as they had their little bro moment.
"And who might you two ladies be?", my mother looked them over with an inquiring gaze.
"My name's Kyoka Jiro ma'am"
"And I'm Momo Yaoyorozu"
"I'm Ryunosuke's mother, Natsuko, and this is his father Iwao. It's a pleasure to meet you two", she then turned her gaze to me and I couldn't help but shiver. "Ryu~"
"Ugh"
"You didn't tell me you had other girl friends". She emphasized the word 'girls' with a mischievous smirk on her face. "Seem's my sons a natural charmer. Well, you get it from me of course. Your father was never a lady's man. We even nicknamed him Stone Face Hero when we were still active back then cause he could never crack a smile, HA!". She laughed and smacked his shoulder.
'Ah Ms. Akutagawa, you're totally ruining your mature woman image!", Mina and the rest yelled in their minds as they maintained their smiles. My father remained still but his ears reddened slightly out of embarrassment.
"Ugh, it's not like that", I sighed and shook my head as I gave the two an apologetic look.
"The matches are gonna be starting soon guys!", Uraraka called us from afar and we nodded.
"Well we should go now. It was nice meeting you". Jiro and Momo waved and walked off.
"Good luck out there honey. We'll be cheering you on when your match comes up. You too Ashido, Kirishima", my mother balled her hand into a fist and pumped it into the air.
"Yeah, see you, mom, dad", I pulled Mina and Kirishima along to the stands where the rest of the class was seated. We took our seats and settled in as we waited for the first match between Midoriya and Shinso.
"HOOOOOOOOOOH DID YOU SEE THAT!?"
"YOU BET I DID"
My ears pricked up to the sound of Kaminari and Mineta's yelling. What's got these two so excited?
"Silky black hair, shining grey eyes, perfect skin, curvy body, and milkers! The perfect mommy!"
"I wonder which hero that is cuz I'm officially their number one fan!"
I was confused for a second before realization hit me and a tickmark appeared on my forehead. These bastards, that's my mom!
"Maybe she'll give me an offer if I show off during my match haha!"
"Oh, an offer you say?"
Kaminari and Mineta didn't know when but someone had appeared behind them and struck their heads with a fist.
"Agh! Class Prez, what gives!?"
"You little pervert, that perfect mommy you were talking about..." Akutagawa cracked his knuckles as he paused. "...is my mom".
Both Mineta and Kaminari's faces paled as they squeaked before getting on their knees and kowtowing.
"Mercy please! We didn't know so don't punish us, we're friends right?"
"Oh? Friends? I don't see any friends, only corpses..." Akutagawa's eyes were ablaze as he grabbed the two by the collar and dragged them away from the stands, kicking and screaming. The rest of the class shook their heads and silently prayed for the two's well-being.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"IT'S THE START OF THE FIRST MATCH. OUR UNLIKELY HERO FROM THE HERO COURSE IZUKU MIDORIYAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Present Mic paused to catch his breath."VERSUUUUUUUUS SHINSO HITOSHIIIIIIIIIII FROM GENERAL STUDIES!"
"Ah damn my ears", Akutagawa grumbled as he picked his ear. After punishing Kaminari and Mineta he returned to his seat and was slurping on a drink beside Mina and Kirishima.
"Who do you think is gonna win?", Mina wondered out loud as she gazed down at Midoriya who had a nervous expression on his face, and Shinso with his normal tired expression.
Kirishima grabbed his chin in a thinking posture as he said, "I'd say Midoriya. Even though he can't really control his quirk, he still packs a punch without it. One good hit in and Shinso's done for"
"But Shinso has a good chance at winning too", Ojiro chimed in from behind. Everyone turned to look at him with a questioning gaze.
"It's his quirk. It requires someone to reply to a question or actively talk to him. Once they do they're put into a trance, obeying his commands. That's what happened to Ojiro during the cavalry battle", Akutagawa said as a few gasps rang out.
"Deku..."
"Midoriya..."
Iida and Uraraka gazed at Midoriya worriedly until Akutagawa drew their attention back to him.
"But as long as he doesn't talk to him or give in to provocation then he'll be fine. Besides, he's special", he added with a smirk.
"Special how?", Jiro asked as the rest of the class also focused on his next words.
"He possesses something extremely powerful..."
The class waited with bated breath.
"So powerful it could very well shake the earth..."
A drop of sweat dripped from Bakugou's forehead.
"That is...."
Toru hiccuped as she clasped her hands in front of her chest.
"Plot armor", he finished with a solemn face.
The whole class froze before Todoroki deadpanned and Bakugou popped a vein on his forehead.
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!?"
They all looked at him speechless with their mouths hanging open.
"Ryu...are you serious?"
"Deadly", he nodded, his mouth pulled into a thin line. Mina looked down as she clenched her fists, her shoulders trembling.
"Ha...haha...", Jiro had a crooked smile on her face as she and Mina both pulled their fists back before launching them at the back of Akutagawa's head, knocking his drink out of his hand.
"Ooough!", he slumped and held his head as steam rose from it.
"All that suspense..."
"For something so stupid..."
The two gritted their teeth as Akutagawa shifted seats quickly to sit on the other side of Kirishima, away from Mina and Jiro. Kaminari and Mineta chuckled to themselves before getting a death glare.
"Ah, uncultured ones wouldn't understand", he said as he adjusted the collar of his gym uniform and returned his gaze to the match. "But in all seriousness, he is special. I know that he'll win. Just watch"
The rest of the class turned their attention back to the arena as Present Mic was about to finish explaining the rules.
"YOU CAN ALSO WIN BY GETTING YOUR OPPONENT TO SAY 'I give up!"
<<< Arena >>>
"I give up huh?", Shinso suddenly spoke as he stared at Midoriya.
"This fight, you get it right? It is to test your spirit, challenge your dreams. If you want to accomplish them and grasp your envisioned future, then you can't fret how you realize it...."
"READYYYYYYYY?"
"...that dumb monkey was talking about his pride and your class president was just egging him on about a man's pride, but..."
"START!"
"He wasted his chance. Don't you agree he was pretty retarded?" Shinso finished with the same expression as Midoriya gasped in shock.
"Y-you...What did you say!?", Midoriya ran forward full pelt before suddenly stopping as Shinso grinned.
"Heh, hook, line and sinker"
Ojiro stood up from his seat as he grabbed his head, yelling about warning Midoriya beforehand to not give in to his provocation. Akutagawa simply shook his head as he continued watching.
"Deku...!"
"What? No...!"
Iida and Uraraka slowly rose from their seats as well as all the audience members watched in shock as Midorya froze on the spot, unmoving with dead eyes.
"IT'S ONLY THE START OF THE MATCH AND HE'S ALREADY FROZEEEEEEEN!? COULD THIS BE THE TRUE POWER OF THIS AVERAGE-LOOKING STUDENT WITH MEDIOCRE PERFORMANCE SO FAR!?". Shinso's brow twitched at Present Mic's jab but he ignored it for now.
"You're smart, getting this far without even displaying your quirk. It makes me curious about how you managed to get into the hero course, but unfortunately, I'll be taking that spot. Turn around and walk out of bounds"
"Huh? EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH!?"
There were collective gasps from the crowd and Midoriya obeyed Shinso's words and started walking out with slow steps. Iida and Uraraka were yelling for him to stop from their seats but he didn't seem to hear them, or anyone. All Might out of his buff form was frantically whispering from the tunnel for Midoriya to snap out of it.
'No... I can't control it... My body...', Midoriya yelled in his mind as witnessed his own feet slowly make their way out of bounds.
'My head is...so foggy...Stop DAMN IT!'
'Even though Ojiro and Akutagawa warned me...shit! Shit!'
'I have to get out...Everyone's counting on me.....Huuuuurk!'
Suddenly sharp gazes pierced into him from the tunnel. Looking deeper, he thought he could see the silhouette of eight people staring at him as his body tingled like electricity was charging through his veins. His index and middle fingered glowed as they charged up.
"You wouldn't understand it but, I have my own dreams so...do me a favor and get out of here"
Right before Midoriya's foot was above the line his glowing fingers twitched, sending out an incredibly strong wind pressure blowing Shinso back a step and causing everyone to cover their faces.
"Haaa!...Huuuuuuuh...Haaa!"
"This...! THIS IS...!"
"Plot armor", Akutagawa finished Present Mic's sentence with a smirk as he crossed his arms smugly.
