Chapitre 16: Chapter 16: Sports Festival Part 1
A/N: Btw, I like to write the names of characters based off what's easier for me to write constantly. So whilst some characters will call Izuku "Midoriya", I'll/Ren'll be calling him Izuku, coz it's just easier for me to type.
Plus, I can't change the good ol' tradition Japan has with their name for the MHA world, so maybe I'll actually stick to it in future worlds - possibly.
(Eyes suggestions, their conditions to unlock them and possible conditions to upgrade them if they're upgradeable eyes Here) - Please actually put conditions and whatnot, as that's the important thing for this fic.

"Oya oya oya, com'ere com'ere" Ren bought everyone's attention to him with a smirk on his face as he put his hand in his pocket, "Check this bad boy out!" He said with a chuckle as he showed the class a photo on his phone
"Pfff-AHAHAHAH!" Most of the class broke into a laughter as Bakugo began to literally explode in rage, swearing to kill Ren and crush his phone.
"Midoriya" Todoroki's stern voice ruined the mood as the class turned their heads to see Todoroki walked up to Izuku emotionlessly.
"Todoroki... what is it?" Izuku asked as he began to sweat, worried if he had done something wrong to make Todoroki mad or something.
"Objectively speaking... I'm more stronger than you. More capable" He said bluntly, causing the class to have their mouths hung open as they couldn't believe how blunt Todoroki could be.
"Huh!? U-uh s-sure..." Izuku jolted as he stuttered, not knowing what to say in return - not like he would've had time to say anything as Todoroki carried on talking.
"All Might's got his eye on you, doesn't he. Now, I'm not about to pry into why that is, but..." The class looked at the confrontation in silence, with Ren and some of the guys eating popcorn, "I will beat you" He stated.
"Oooooo! Izuku, you gonna take that!?" Ren, Kirishima and Kaminari instigated jokingly as they chowed down on the sweet and salty popcorn Ren had bought into the locker room.
Knowing the guys were just playing around, Izuku didn't take it seriously as he bawled his shaking fists before looking into Todoroki's eyes with heavy conviction
"Todoroki. I'm not sure why you felt the need to say you'll beat me... You're clearly stronger, I know that... And I can't measure up to most of the others here in skill... Objectively speaking, even..." Izuku began to shake.
"H-Hey... we were just joking, Midoriya-" Kirishima, feeling it was their fault, apologised as he stood up and approached Izuku and Todoroki, but was stopped by Izuku raising his voice
"But...!! Everyone... even the kids from the other courses are aiming for the top" He said, remembering Shinso and the other students 'declaring war' on their class, "And I'm... well, lemme say this. I'm NOT gonna fall behind.
I'm going for it too. With everything I've got!" Izuku finished, surprising the class with his confidence - something they wouldn't have expected from him, based off what they know of him so far.
"...Right" Todoroki said with a bored tone as he walked past Izuku and sat down in the corner by himself.
A few minutes later, a staff member entered the locker room and informed the class that it was time for them to leave as Present Mic was about to call out their class.
"Let's go, class 1-A!" Ida led the group enthusiastically with a serious face, "Let's show the heroes our strength!" He clapped in an attempt to hype up the class.
"HELL YEAH!!" The class cheered as they followed Ida's lead and walked down the tunnel.

"YEAHHHH!" Present Mic could be heard as he was in the commentator booth with Aizawa who looked like he was about to fall asleep any minute (If it weren't for Present Mic's loudness), "THE FIRST-YEAR STAGE IS HERE, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!
REMEMBER, TODAY IS THE FIRST-YEAR STAGE, TOMORROW IS THE SECOND-YEARS, AND WEDNESDAY IS FOR THE THIRD-YEARS!" Present Mic reminded the spectators at home and in person, "IT'S UA'S SPORTS FESTIVAL!! THE ONE TIME EACH YEAR... WHEN OUR FLEDGLING HEROES COMPETE IN A RUTHLESS GRAND BATTLE!!
FIRST UP... Y'KNOW WHO I'M TALKIN' ABOUT!! THE MIRACULOUS RISING STARS WHO BRUSHED OFF A VILLAIN ATTACK WITH THEIR STEELY WILLPOWER!! THE FIRST YEARS...
OF THE HERO COURSE!!" Present Mic said enthusiastically as class 1-A revealed themselves for the spectators to see, "IT'S CLASS A!!" He announced as the crowd broke into a eardrum-break-worthy loud cheer.
"Woah... what a crowd...!" Izuku and some other students on the more timid side were nervous as the large and loud audience
Following Class A's call, Present Mic blitzed past the announcement of the other classes coming out, "FOLLOWING CLASS B, IT'S CLASS C, D, AND E OF GENERAL STUDIES...!! AND HERE COME THE SUPPORT COURSE CLASSES, F, G AND H! AND THE BUSINESS COURSE..."
The students of the other classes cursed amongst one another at the difference in treatment they were getting in comparison to class 1-A.
With all the classes being called out, they all walked up to Midnight who stood on a relatively small stage as she held some small BDSM whip-looking thing.
"NOW FOR THE ATHELETE'S OATH!" Present Mic said as Midnight, the referee for the first years, snapped her whip to garner the attention of everybody on her and her seductive hero outfit.
"R-Rated? Should she really be teaching in a high school?" Tokoyami commented in what he thought was quite silent, but clearly wasn't as Midnight herself heard it.
"Shut it" She shouted in response to Tokoyami's comment, snapping her whip shortly after to silence the murmuring students, "Pipe down!! Your student representative is...
From Class 1-A, Ren Kiyotaka!!" Midnight announced.
"Eh?" Ren gasped in confusion, "WHAAAT!? I DIDN'T GET TOLD ABOUT THIS!" He said as he put his hands behind his head in complaint, "When was this a thing!?" He turned to Kaminari, grabbed his shoulders and began shaking him profusely.
"You got told in class a while ago, you just didn't pay attention" Kaminari said in between the shakes, causing Ren to let go as he began to think back to 'a while ago'
- Flashback -
"Also, Ren!" Aizawa called out at the beginning of last lesson, "You'll be giving a speech at the sports festival, so make sure you prepare one"
"Yeah yeah... *Snore*..." He answered with his eyes closed, not listening to Aizawa's words
- Present Time -
"Fuck..." He muttered to himself.
"Hurry up!" Midnight shouted with a snap of her whip, urging Ren to speed walk past the students and walk on stage.
"Yeah yeah..." He sighed as he stood in front of the mic, looking at all the students in front of him, "Uh... The Athlete's oath..." He faked a cough as he had 2 seconds to think of something to say.
"Good luck everyone, and please don't make this too easy otherwise it'll be boring, thank you" He said as he watched the crowd and students look at him in silence, 'Was that good?' He tilted his head.
"WOOOOO!" The crowd cheered, loving the trope of a cocky representative which was supported by Present Mic's cheer in the background.
"Don't get cocky, class A!" The students berated Ren's words angrily. Meanwhile, the students of class 1-A which were, unfortunately, affiliated with him couldn't help but shake their heads with a sigh and a palm to their faces.
As Ren walked down the stage and back to his class, he could hear the frustrated challenges and curses of the students from the other classes aimed towards him.
'Oh well, not my problem' Ren shrugged as he stood back in his place, waiting for Midnight's instructions.
With Ren back in place, Midnight carried on with her script.
"Now, without any delay, let's get the first event started!" She said as she turned to face the holograph behind her, "These are the qualifiers! It's in this stage that so many are sent home crying every year! And the fateful first event this year is...
This!" She pointed to the holograph behind her in a flashy manner with the words 'Obstacle Course Race' on it.
She then began to explain what the event was about, "It's a race between every members of all eleven classes! The course is a four kilometre lap around the stadium itself!
Our school preaches freedom in all things! Heh heh heh... so as long as you don't go off the course, anything is fair game!
Racers, to your positions!" She ordered as the students were led to the starting line of the race.
*Ding...* *Ding...* The first two buttons dinged as they turned red.
*Ding! Beeeeppp!* The final button dinged, followed by a loud, deep beep.
"STARRTTTTTT!!"
-----------
A/N: I looked at some comments and heard people saying that the MC sometimes seems like he's not real/robotic in a way, so I'm trying my best to make him seem more human and have an actual personality. Hope you guys liked the little bits with him (The photo at the start, and him dozing off and not paying attention to Aizawa)
Thanks for reading
