Chapter 31: The second Round
The other three fights after mine went just like in the original show,perhaps even more smoothly, if I must say.
Tetsu and Kirishima's fight was as predictable as ever. They ended up knocking each other out at the same time and then settled the match with an arm wrestle afterwards
Meanwhile, Iida spent his entire fight as a walking promotion poster, controlled to the inch by Mei,watching it firsthand was hilarious. I couldn't help but laugh,unfortunately, Mina didn't find it funny, and ended up scolding me.
And, of course, there was the fight everyone was anxious about: Uraraka vs Bakugou. Two complete opposites, I must say. I ended up talking with Izuku to calm him down. Honestly, that guy is a bipolar, one second he acts like a total crackhead, breaking his arms to win, and the next, he's like a frightened rabbit, too scared to even look at the platform.
As expected, Bakugou didn't hold back against Uraraka. Her strategy was the same as in the series: using debris to try and catch Bakugou off guard. It's a solid plan, and it might have worked on anyone else,except the guy who can blow everything to dust just by sweating.
One thing that did change, though, was Uraraka's approach. She wasn't as passive this time and actively tried to launch Bakugou into the air. It didn't work, but it was refreshing to see her take such bold action.
Talking real for a second, my fight with Kaminari did have consequences, before the second round starts I have to resolve this or I am going to have problems
I quickly leave the balcony as my arm is once again burning in pain, I grit my teeth as the regeneration kicks in but it can't do nothing else that reverse the effect, I enter the changing room and sit in the most close bench just as the burn gets worse
The sounds from outside begin to quiet down as the second round is waiting to start, I control my breath making a big effort not to scream off pain in the place, I look at the ceiling and finally make up my mind to cut off my arm,it took only a second to make a clean cut, but it's unbearable, to the point I bit my lip off to contain any sound as the regeneration process kicks in. It was only a moment, but Kaminari managed to activate his quirk before I struck him that last time.Normally, this wouldnt cause much damage to anyone else, but unlucky for me, Im especially fragile when it comes to this sort of thing.
The electric power inside that last defense it was so powerful that didn't let me regenerate the arm to his optimal point, for some reason I don't know, it kept coming back, burning my arm over and over again
From my mouth a lot of undesirable noises come out, I try my best to not scream as I grab what's left of my chopped arm to mold it back to his original form
My burned member begins to lose its shape, slowly crumbling into a pile of ash on the ground. I look at it before another wave of pain kicks in, I go to my locker and grab a little bag I hide inside my body and put it before I went to eat outside
I pull out a syringe from inside and quickly inyect it in my neck the content of it
As the liquid enters my system, my body reacts immediately. Since I lack veins, the distribution process is far quicker, and the pain fades away before I even realize it.
I close my eyes, letting the calmness wash over me, erasing the nerves I had moments ago. The silence and darkness of the room start to consume me,then, the sound of the door opening echoes from every corner of the space.
Panicking, I try to hide the syringe back inside my body, but is already too late. My eyes widen as I spot a figure looking at me from the entrance of the room
Momo Yaoyoruzu
Her dark hair and beautiful facial card appears in the dark,her face is serious and her eyes look at me directly
-I didn't question the reason why you ask me to replicate syringes at that time, since you always been weird and have your own secrets but...-
She looks at me, maybe worried, taking a deep breath as I expect whatever is going to happen next
-This is to much, I was already trying to get used to the crudeness of your quirk even after what happened in the U.S.J attack, but you have to stop, using drugs to mantain your mental health is not permitted and could be problematic for your future Akuma-
She is very serious, she is looking at me with those eyes, telling me I have no option but to follow her rules, and that is getting very deep in my skin
-Thats not of your business Yaoyoruzu-
She is taken back by my response but quickly starts her argument again
-It is my "business", I'm one of the class representatives and I'm telling you to stop, you are hurting yourself and it seems you don't have control when you fight, considering how you manage to get so injured even in a festival, you are probably worst than Izuku-
-Momo, please, I'm know what I'm doing, this it's just a part of my quirk-
-The you should stop using your quirk to the point you need to inyect tranquilizers, you could be expel for doing this in a tournament!-
-It know, please don't tell anybody, I didn't plan to do this but the situation was for it-
-So why you didn't go to the nurse?-
-Because my regeneration is far better, I just needed to calm myself down-
She cross her arms down her chest, looking somewhat concerned and not knowing what to do
-Sigh...-
She finally snap out of it, taking a deep breath and looking at me with a serious look
-Just...don't do something so reckless okay?-
-I promise-
With that, she turns around, looks at me one more time and gives me a beautiful smile before leaving the room
Seriously.... everyone loves to get into other people's problems
With that, the second round is up to start, the contenders are up in the TV, I look at it and surprise surprise
1.Izuku vs Todoroki
3.Tokoyami vs Mina
5.Akuma vs Kirishima
7. Lida vs Bakugou
Oh well, I got the rock guy....
