Chương 55: Chapter : 52 Second Event
[3rd POV]
The crowd went wild again when someone finally took second place in the race. And it was none other than Todoroki.
The boy who was not only hot, but cool as well. A dangerous combination.
But by then. Bakugo was bored out of his mind, at least he appears to be. But in truth, he could never be bored of the audience looking at him in awe.
Just behind Todoroki came Midoriya and Ida. Midoriya looked satisfied with himself but Ida had a sour expression.
Todoroki looked around the stadium, he noted the loud crowd and their seemingly unstoppable enthusiasm. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Bakugo leaning on the stadium wall with his eyes closed.
Releasing a puff of air and therefore some tiredness along with it, he had this good idea of approaching his rival.
He may have said things in the morning but he did not hate the guy.
Bakugo was far away so it takes a bit of time to reach him. During which Bakugo refused to acknowledge his approach.
Even as he was standing infront of Bakugo, the boy refused to open his eyes.
Todoroki - breaking the silence - said, "I see you have finished a long time ago."
..
He got no reply.
He frowned a bit and called out a a little louder, "Bakugo."
The boy in question slowly opened his eye, acting as if seemingly suprised at his presence.
"Oh, you finally finished." Bakugo looked around the stadium with faux curiousity.
"What year is it?" he asked seriously.
"..."
Todoroki glared at him. One of his eye was ice cold while the other burned with fury.
"Sorry, sorry." Bakugo waved his hand infront of his face with a closed eye smile."I don`t mean to offend you."
"It`s just...its been ages." An infuriating smirk rest on his face.
Todoroki turned around and walked away instantly while Bakugo chuckled softly behind him.
And as Todoroki walk away, the anger he felt the instant he heard those words fade away. His face ease up to return to its stotic self. But if one squinted, they would see the corner of his lips, curl up ever so slightly.

[MC POV}
The crowd cheered as more and more participants reached the stadium. The crowd welcomed every student, no matter their rank, with shouts of encouragement.
Meanwhile, Ochako stood infront of me, with arms crossed and lips pouting a bit.
She looked at me, her eyes requesting a form of apology and she waited for it.
..
"Your welcome." I said with an assuring nod.
She blinked and then let out a huge sigh. Her straight posture crumble as she look at me helplessly, "Thanks..I guess."
And thank me she should. I doubt that she would`ve made it in top 8 if not for me. But I also have to give her credit, she is far better than her cannon counterpart.
She is brave and determined, way more than she should be. Which may be due to my influence.
'I can`t help but make everything better. My mere presence changed everything for the better' I mused to myself as I reached the conclusion.
The crowd suddenly erupted again, causing both of us to look towards the entrance.
At the 10th place came in Momo. She look as if she got wings on her feet as she bounced with each stride she took. And with that movement, something else bounced as well.
Up and down. up and down.
"What are you looking at?" a voice came to my side which freaked out Ochako and maybe also me, but only a bit.
We turned to see floating clothes which was none other than Toru.
Or a ghost, which was not likely.
"Nature." I said with a shrug.
"haa..I saw you looking at her breast." she said with a sigh as she shook her head.
Her invisible arm pressed her bossoms and she looked at it while she asked quietly, "Do you like it that much."
No one should see her actions but I did, along with her thoughtful expression. I turned my head and saw Ochako do the same.
There was a silence which disappeared when Momo came to us, with a slightly rapid breath. "Looks like I reached last among us."
She look down in a bit disappointement. And the two girls came to her and consoled her.
"Its fine.." Momo said and rise her fist, "I would do better next time."
I observed them silently, in a non creepy and cool way. Then, the last participant reach the stadium. He was the 42th place.
The entrance gate closed itself after than, allowing no more students to pass through.
Midinight`s voice echoed after that, "The first event is over!!! sorry for the other students but better luck next time!!"
"Now, without wasting time. Let us get onto the next event!!"
Midnight explained the rules and the summary of the next event. It was called the human cavalry battle.
In the shortest way possible, its basically where we all get points according to the previous event ranking. With 42th position being 5 and 41th being 10 and so on.
We can be in a team of 2 to 4 people and we would try to steal each other point, expressed in headbands.
There were also things like the the leader not touching the ground, etc.
Thats about it.
The first event was the imitation of a professional hero rushing towards an emergency or villain atacks.
The second event on the other hand, simulate what happens after the hero reached the place. Heroes have to learn to work with other heroes and deal with the situation without disagreement. And also the first one to reach carrying the biggest burden.
It was cleaver thing.
"But not only that, the exception is the first place. Who will be worth 10 million points!!" Midnight added and the students fell into silence.
...
Wow. As I live and breathe, they are all staring at me like a prey.
'How exciting~'
"What are you extras looking at! huh?!!" I bark out at the people who seems to hate me for no reason.
Some of their face goes sour, as if it was hard for them to swallow the hard truth.
Now their stare became a glare, an annoyed glare they all seem to share. But I don`t care.
"You have 15 minutes to get your team. Good luck and Plus Ultra." Midnight said and she climed down the stage.
The students stopped glaring daggers at me and began to approach each other to find teammates.
The three girls, Momo, Ochako and Toru also moved away in search of teamates. They said sorry incase I wanted them to join me before leaving.
Which was silly, why would they even think that I would want them?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3rd POV]
Contrary to what he liked to believe and think, Bakugo was disappointed since he was kind of hoping the four of them could make a team.
Not because he needs them or want them to be on his side. Only that he is not fond of the idea of them being an opponent.
But it couldn`t be helped. So he will just blast them away if they were on his way. Their choice.
Bakugo waited, and waited, and waited some more. But nobody approached him.
He refused to look desperate and ask others to be on his team. People should be fighting over themselves to be in his team in his opinion.
Which was arrogant but..at the same time true.
He was baffaled that no one approached him. As things are going, it appears that he would have to take the initiative.
The reason for this is because most student in Class A sees him as a rival and someone who they have to prove themselves against.
Prove that they are worthy of being friend, classmate with the person they somewhat admire which was Bakugo.
They desire to prove to themselves and him, they they are also worthy to rub shoulder with him.
And the other students just hate his gut. Or scared to be targeted because of his huge points.
Leading to this situation where no one wants to be his teammate.
But at the final moment, someone did approach him and saved Bakugo's pride.
Kirishima.
What a bro.
Kirishima asked and Bakugo welcomed him with gratitude.
They quickly get into formation where Kirishima hardened his body for a more stable footing with Bakugo on top of him.
The other students also get in formation, the leaders of each group ride on top of their team with their points around their head or neck
"LET ME HEAR THE WARCRIES!!"
Audience : YAHHHH!!!
"READY!!! START." Present mic screamed and the battle royal began.
Three foolish groups instantly rushed at Bakugo and Kirishima . Others are more cautious while the Class A students do not even dream of beating Bakugo head on.
"WAHHH!!" They came with vigor.
In their mind, Bakugo was a meat inside a pot. They knew he was strong, but he couldn`t be THAT strong. Right?
With individual courage amplified by the group, there was no doubt in their mind.
...
Looking at the people rushing at him, Bakugo`s face grew dim and his eyes got dark.
Seeing them, he was suddenly struck with a realisation, an enlightenment. The world was not fair...
"This is just not fair.." he said.
...
...
...
...
...
'"
",,for you guys."

*BOOM!!!*
