"The first match of the first round of the finals tournament. From the hero course, Izuku Midoriya! Versus! From general studies, Hitoshi Shinso!" Present Mic announce
"Ready?! Start!" Present Mic announce
As Izuku about to run towards Shinso, Shinso talk
"Nice day, isn't it?" Shinso ask confusing Izuku
"It's a good day to fight, right?" Shinso ask again
Izuku walk towards Shinso "What the fuck a..." Izuku reply but suddenly he stop talking and walking also look kinda dead
"I win" Shinso smirk
"Ahhhh! I should've warned him!" Ojiro curse himself
"Hey! Hey! What's up?! It's the important first match! Liven things up!" Present Mic announce while Uraraka and Iida are worried
"Midoriya! The match just started and he's become completely frozen?!" Present Mic announce
"He's got a blank look on his face and isn't moving a muscle! Is this Shinso's quirk?! He didn't stand out at all, but could he actually be someone amazing?!" Present Mic announce
"Hitoshi Shinso from general studies has gotten the better of Izuku Midoriya from the hero course! Who would've imagine this?! Will the bottom really overthrow the top?!" Present Mic announce frantically
"You're lucky that you've been blessed, Izuku Midoriya. Turn around and walk out of bounds" Shinso ordered then Izuku turn around and walk towards the bounds
"Huh? What?! Midoriya's being so obedient!" Present Mic announce
"Midoriya, why?" Uraraka ask confuse and worried
"If you go out of bounds, then you'll lose the match!" Iida reminded with his robot hands
'What the fuck?! I can't control my body! It's like he override my brain's command to my body and hijack it! Shit, I'm getting closer to the bounds!' Izuku curse mentally since he has no control whatsoever of his body
"I knew I should've warned him!" Ojiro curse himself
"What do you mean, Ojiro?" Toru ask confuse as others
"That Shinso, he has a brainwashing quirk" Ojiro reply worried
"Brainwash?!" Class 1A scream surprise
"How can Midoriya get out of that now?! Or how we suppose to fight him?!" Mineta yell frantically
"But how does Midoriya get brainwash in the first place?" Uraraka ask confuse
"I think by talking to him" Ojiro said
"Talking?" Kaminari ask confuse
"Yeah, I don't remember much after I answered his question. I think that's how it works" Ojiro explain
"So as long we answer him, we get brainwash?" Kirishima ask frightened
"That's scary!" Toru complain
"But it's not completely impenetrable" Ojiro claim
"Huh?" sero ask confuse as others
"I said I barely remembered anything until almost the end, right? When we were running away after Shinso stole Tetsutetsu's headband, looks like I ran into one of the horses on Team Tetsutetsu. That's when I snapped out of it. I remember what happened clearly after that" Ojiro explain
"So receiving a shock can get rid of it?" Mina ask
"It's very likely" Ojiro confirm
"But now that's useless since Midoriya has no idea about that" jiro pointed out
"I knew I should've warn him" Ojiro blame himself
"Don't blame yourself, Ojiro. Even if you want to warn him, we haven't really see him during the break at all" Toru reassure
"Yeah, it's like he disappear during the break" Iida agree
"But the most important question is how Midoriya suppose to break free from Shinso's brainwash?" Uraraka pointed out making the rest of the class except Bakugou and Todoroki became more worried
'Fuck! Move! Move! I'm not gonna lose! Not like this!' Izuku curse mentally as his right hand is moving slightly
"You are so blessed with your quirk, Midoriya. Even with a quirk like this, I have my own dream's for becoming a great hero, so lose for me" Shinso ordered
'Give me back my body! Break free! I! Am not! Going! To LOSE!!!' Izuku mentally declare as his right hand clench then he punch his face just before he take another step out of the arena
"What?" Present Mic ask surprise as others who see it
"Midoriya's stopped!" Present Mic announce then the audience cheer
"Midoriya!" Iida cheer out
"I'm... I'm so glad!" Uraraka said relief
'He punch himself?' Aizawa ask surprise
"That's crazy..." Ojiro said sighing out
"But wait, how did Midoriya able to punch himself, kero?" Asui ask confuse
"I don't know, but I'm glad he able to break free of the brainwashing" Uraraka claim happily
'Son of a bitch! That guy...!' Izuku though angrily as he turn around looking angry
"How...? You shouldn't be ale to move freely!" Shinso yell shocked and angry
"What did you do?!" Shinso yell angry but Izuku just glare him
'He won't answer... did he figure out my secret? No, he should've heard from that monkey from the beginning All I can do is make him talk again...' Shinso though frustrated
"Say something " Shinso said but Izuku stay silent
"You have a nice quirk, you never kn-" Shinso try to taunted but Izuku grab his knife then dash his way towards Shinso
By the time Shinso realize that Izuku is approaching him, Izuku is already a meter away from him
"Wha...!" Shinso is surprise but he try to punch Izuku
Izuku dodge the punch then move behind Shinso kick his leg making Shinso fall to his knee then grab his right arm before pointing the knife down Shinso's throat
Izuku then whisper to Shinso with a full killer intent "Yield" He simply said and a simple word scare the hell of Shinso's life
"I-I-I..." Shinso is unable to reply back due to fear
Izuku then press then knife against Shinso's throat making it bleed a little
Shinso then raise his left arm "I-I g-give up" Shinso surrender in fear
"Shinso surrender! Midoriya advances to round two!" Midnight announce then the entire audience cheer
"In the finals, the first person to advance to the second round is Izuku Midoriya from Class A!" Present Mic announce as Izuku release a shaken Shinso
"I was so nervous!" Uraraka sighing out
"Turning the tables at the last moment! As expected of Midoriya!" Iida claim proudly
"That was kind of a boring first match, but we should praise them both for a bravery fought match. Clap your hands!" Present Mic announce as the audience cheer and clap their hands
Izuku notice that Shinso is still trembling lightly and look very depressed. Izuku then approach Shinso, Shinso tense at first but Izuku gesture him that he mean no harm before moving to his side
"I'm blessed, quirk like this" Izuku mention Shinso's words from earlier
"You're trying to prove them who bullied you wrong, aren't you?" Izuku ask shocking Shinso
Shinso is shocked but decided to shrug it off "You can't help what your heart longs for" He said depressed
"Sorry I got mad and release some killer intent at you, but this doesn't mean you should give it up like that" Izuku told him making Shinso confuse
"Look there, they're rooting for you" Izuku told him as he pointed at Shinso's classmate
"You're awesome, Shinso!" A GS student yell
"Good job!" A GS student yell
"I was really surprised!" A GS student yell
"You're the star of the general studies!" A GS student yell
"You put a great fight against the guy who placed first in the obstacle course!" A GS student yell
"Besides-" A GS student yell as he point at the pro heroes behind him
"That quirk would work quite well against villains. I wish I had it" A pro hero said
"U.A.'s not very smart if he's in general studies" Another pro commented
"Well, they've got a ton of people applying so some things just can't be helped" A pro hero stated
"It was the difference in combat experience, eh?" A pro hero ask
"Yeah, it ends up making a big difference, what a waste" A pro hero agree
Shinso who hear this is shocked, he has so many people who believe in him despite his so called "villainous" quirk
"They believe in you, so lived up to their expectation. You'll be a fine hero" Izuku told Shinso smiling
"Don't worry, Midoriya. I'm going to get onto the hero course, get certified, and become a better hero any of you!" Shinso declare as he walk down the arena
"God bless and good luck" Izuku reply making both Izuku and Shinso smile
Meanwhile
Todoroki is walking thru the hallways when he suddenly meet his "father"
"You're in the way" Todoroki told Endeavor
"You're acting disgracefully, Shoto. If you used the power in your left side, you would've had won an overwhelming victory in the obstacle course and cavalry battle" Endeavor told his son but Todoroki just keep walking pass him
"Stop this childish rebellion already. You have a duty to surpass All Might. Do you understand? You're different from your siblings. You are the greatest masterpiece!" Endeavor told his son
"Is that all can you say, bastard? I will win and advance with just Mom's power. I won't use your power when I fight" Todoroki declare as he exited the hallway
"Even if that works for now, You'll soon reach the limits if that power" Endeavor told his son but Todoroki only growl in anger
Izuku walk towards his designated class seating row with a cup of cola in his hand
"Midoriya!" Uraraka call him
"Good work!" Uraraka told him
"We save you a seat" Iida pointed at a seat beside him
"Thanks" Izuku reply as he walk to the seat
"Thanks for the waiting! Next up is... these guys!" Present Mic announce as the screen show Sero vs Todoroki
"He's good! He's good, but with that plainness he just can't get rid of! From the hero course, Hanta Sero!" Present Mic announce
"That's mean" Sero said
"Versus- Taking second, on both the prelims! You're way too strong, kid! He wasn't recommended for admission for nothing! Also from hero course, Shoto Todoroki!" Present Mic announce
"And now, for the second match of the finals! Ready... start!" Present Mic announce
"I don't feel like winning" Sero said then he launch and restrain Todoroki "But I don't feel like losing, either!" Sero yell as he slide Todoroki to the bounds
"A surprise attack aimed to push his opponent out of bounds! Don't you think that was the best choice for this situation?! Seriously, get him, Sero!" Present Mic announce
"Sorry" Todoroki said angrily as he freeze the ground at a very fast rate, the next thing Sero see is an iceberg heading towards him
Suddenly the entire stadium began to shake violently
Present Mic and Aizawa had their eyes wide open and their jaws drop
Iida, Uraraka and the rest of Class A are shocked except Izuku who look rather impress
Suddenly there is a giant iceberg sticking out from the stadium arena and raise taller than the stadium roof
Todoroki meanwhile is fine, he then break Sero's frozen tape while Sero himself is almost completely frozen in ice
"Don't... don't you think that's a bit much?" Sero ask trembling
"Sero, can you move?" Midnight ask half frozen and trembling
"O-of course not... ow..." Sero reply painfully
"Sero is immobilized! Todoroki advance to the second round!" Midnight announce
The audience in the meanwhile are stunned by what they just see soon they all start to yell "Don't worry about it!" towards Sero for his misfortune
"Sorry, I went overboard. I was angry" Todoroki apologize as he melt the iceberg
The iceberg is just a meter away from Class A's seat. Izuku open the cap of his cola, grab a knife then shave the ice with his knife making it fall to his cola cup, after getting enough ice Izuku put back the cap and shake it a little "He's one crazy son of a bitch" Izuku said then he slurp his cola
Izuku's classmate only look at Izuku dumbfounded including Bakugou "Did you just seriously did that?" Kaminari ask dumbfounded
"What? The cola is not cold enough" Izuku complain
Timeskip

"When this is over, wanna grab a bite to eat? I'll comfort you if you'll have me" Kaminari offer making Ibara confuse
"'Cause this match'll probably be over in a second!" Kaminari yell as he charge up his electricity
"Indiscriminate shock... 1.3 Million Volts!" Kaminari yell as he release 1.3 million volts of electricity towards Ibara
Ibara turn around then her hair grow into a shield protecting her from the shock, then she send her vines towards Kaminari. Next thing that happen, Kaminari is wrapped around by vines and Ibara is ok
"It was decided in an instant! I'll say it once more! An instant!" Present Mic announce
"Shiozaki advance to the second round!" Midnight announce
"All right! Good job, Shiozaki!" Tetsutetsu cheer
"Man..." Jirou said depress
"What's that? Didn't he say he'd settle this in a second? That's strange, he was defeated in a second, wasn't he? Class A is supposed to be better than Class- "BRAK!!!" "Monoma taunted Class A when suddenly there is a knife sticking out in the wall just below Monoma's head, and that knife crack the wall as well
Class A who see this than look at the one and only culprit. They all look at Izuku who is still sitting and facing the field, but his left hand clearly indicate that he throw that knife
Izuku then glare the fake copycat "Shut up, or the next word you said will be your last" Izuku threaten with a full killer intent
Kendo grab Monoma then throw him away "Uhh... hehe... sorry..." Kendo apologize nervously
"Apology accepted" Izuku reply as he get up and approach Kendo making both class tense and Kendo sweating bullets
Izuku grab his knife then sheath it "Control that thing, before it bring more troubles" Izuku ordered Kendo who nod frantically

"Ready... start!" Present Mic announce
Iida then start sprinting towards Hatsume
Isn't that acceleration wonderful, Iida?" Hatsume ask thru a mic surprising Iida
"A mic?" Iida ask confuse but still dashing towards Hatsume
"Don't your legs feel lighter than usual? That's only be expected! Those leg parts are helping the wearer's movement along!" Hatsume explain as Iida is very close to her now
"And I..." Hatume said when suddenly a hydraulic pole extend from her backpack making her evade Iida, while Iida trip over the pole "... can evade easily with my hydraulic attachments!" Hatsume finish as she evade
'The support companies are sitting... oh, they're biting! I've got them 'em!' Hatsume though excited
Iida try to attack from behind, but her hydraulic attachment move her out of the way again
"Since I've got sensors in every direction, I can even deal with attacks from behind!" Hatsume explain while Iida trip again
Iida is about to fall but Hastume's support item that he's wearing prevented that, Iida than dash at Hatsume again
"Iida changed course adeptly! It's thanks to the auto-balancer that I made!" Hatsume announce
"She just make this fight into a giant commercial for her inventions" Ojiro said sweatdropping

"H-Hatsume is out of bounds. Iida advance to the second round!" Midnight announce
"You tricked me...!" Iida yell angrily
"I'm sorry. I used you" Hatsume apologize
"I hate you!" Iida yell angrily
"I feel really bad for him" Izuku sympatize when Uraraka walk out from the Class's seat
'Uraraka...' Izuku though as he see her walking away
"We're gonna keep right on going with the fifth match! Even though he's wearing a belt, he won't transform! From the hero course, Yuga Aoyama!" Present Mic announce
(Did you really think someone like Aoyama could be a Kamen Raider, Present Mic?)
"Versus- Is something going to come out of those horns? Well? From the hero course, Mina Ashido!" Present Mic announce
"Hehehe, My first match is a piece of cake!" Mina claim smirking
"I'll return those words right back at you" Aoyama claim
"Mina, you can do it!" Asui cheer
"Aoyama, get her! Beat her like those fighting games where they're clothes- "HEY!!!" " Mineta yell when Izuku yell at him
"Shut up" Izuku warn the pervert with killer intent effectively shutting him up
"Now, why don't we get moving? Fifth match, start!" Present Mic announce
Aoyama fire a laser but Mina is able to dodge then she slide on the surface with her acid
"Since we were on the same team for combat training. I know all about you quirk!" Mina claim as she skid around
"Same goes for me!" Aoyama claim as he keep firing his laser
"There's just one thing that's different. At the fitness test" Mina said as she remember that Aoyama could only shoot for 1 second and will get stomachache later
Aoyama keep firing his laser but Mina dodge it every time
"You're... persistent!" Aoyama yell annoyed as he fire his laser longer than 1 second, but Mina dodge it

"Versus- All-purpose creation! She was admitted though recommendations, so her abilities are certified! From the hero course, Momo Yaoyorozu!" Present Mic announce
"Midoriya, what do you think of this match?" Ojiro ask
"I think speed is key here" Izuku reply
"Speed?" Ojiro ask confuse
'It's just as Mr. Present Mic says, I'm against Tokoyami with Dark Shadow, offense and defense in one body. In addition, Tokoyami can bring out Dark Shadow with no time lag, so there is no doubt he will start with a preemptive strike. If I create a simply shield that doesn't take much time and block Tokoyami's attack... if I just give myself enough time to make a weapon-' Yaoyorozu strategize when suddenly Present Mic yell
"Sixth match, start!" Present Mic yell surprising Yaoyorozu
"Go, Dark Shadow!" Tokoyami ordered his quirk
"Got it!" Dark Shadow comply then dash out from Tokoyami's stomach
'Quickly create a shield-' Yaoyorozu though panicked as Dark Shadow is approach at high speed

"Next, a weapon-" Yaoyorozu about to create a pole but Dark Shadow attack her again
'I can't collect my thoughts!' Yaoyorozu though frustrated

The attack make her side away quite some distance, she then notice Dark Shadow suddenly stop
'His attack have stopped? Now!' Yaoyorozu though as she create a pole
"Yaoyorozu! Out of bounds!" Midnight announce surprising Yaoyorozu, she look down and see her right foot is out of bounds
"Tokoyami advances to the second round!" Midnight announce making the audience cheer, Dark Shadow return inside Tokoyami then he bow before leaving
"An overwhelming victory! Tokoyami's Dark Shadow! Could it be the greatest quirk ever?"Present Mic announce
"No... I couldn't do anything... nothing..." Yaoyorozu said depressed
"Damn, I know he's good, but he is better than I though" Izuku said impress
"Okay, let's move on! Next up- The seventh match is a match-up between redundant quirks!" Present Mic announce as Izuku get up and look for Uraraka
"Manly and passionate steel! From the hero course, Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu!" Present Mic announce
"All right!" Tetsutetsu yell

Meanwhile
Iida walk in to the waiting room where Uraraka is waiting

"Uraraka- whoa! What's with the face?! It's all wrinkled!" Iida yell surprise of Uraraka's face
"Wrinkled?" Uraraka ask confuse still with her wrinkled face
"Oh it's nothing, I guess I'm not as good at hiding how nervous I am" Uraraka assure
"I get that, you are up against Bakugou after all, not exactly an easy match" Iida said as he imagine Bakugou angry face
"So you two are here, huh?" Izuku said as he enter the room
"Midoriya, why are yo here? What about the matches?" Uraraka ask
"The match has went the way I expected it to happen and now is a battle between our Kirishima and his doppelganger, it'll take a while until those two are out" Izuku explain
"Those two are out?" Iida ask confuse
"It'll be a tie, and don't ask how I know" Izuku reply
"I'm next, this is it. My fight" Uraraka said nervously
"It'll be ok, right? I don't think Bakugou would use full force on a girl, right?" Iida assure
"That's the million dollar question there. I have a plan against that blonde dynamite, you wanna hear it?" Izuku offer
"That would be perfect!" Iida agree
"Thanks, but no, sorry" Uraraka decline surprising Iida but Izuku understood
"You are wonderful, Midoriya. I keep seeing that over and over again, during the cavalry battle, I said it was a good idea to team up with friends, but now that I think about it, I think I've been relying on you to get to here. When you said that Iida want to defeat you by his own, I feel embarrassed about myself" Uraraka explain
"I understand" Izuku said understanding her motives
Uraraka walk to the door "So it's fine, really, everyone is facing their future and giving their best, that means we're rivals, even you and me, Midoriya. So I guess I'll see you in the finals" Uraraka claim as she give the boys a trembling thumbs up
"Give me a favor though" Izuku ask her
"Yes?" Uraraka ask nervously
"Kick his ass" Izuku ask her smiling
"Hehe, I will" Uraraka reply then she exited the room
"She's trying to grow up herself" Izuku said proudly
"Yeah, I think we all do" Iida agree
"Let's go back to our seat" Izuku said them they both go back oo their seats
Back to the arena
Kirishima punch Tetsutetsu "It didn't hurt!" Tetsutetsu claim then he punch Kirishima
"That didn't hurt either!" Kirishima claim
Tetsutetsu block his face but Kirishima uppercut him, making Tetsutetsu stumble back
Kirishima grin as he block his face but Tetsutetsu manage to punch his cheek, making him stumble back
The two of them then cocked their arms for a final strike
"ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!! "BLANG!!!" " They both scream as their punch connected with their faces
The two of them then fall down, knocked out
"Wow, that was some intense fighting, those two! And the winner of the seventh match is...!" Present Mic announce
"Midnight look at the two boys, they both are out cold and injured
"Both of them knocked out! It's a draw! When the contestant's recover, the winner will be determined by a simply contest, perhaps arm wrestling" Midnight announce
"Weird, they're basically copies of each others" A pro hero commented
"You gotta appreciate the passion they had in the ring, it's inspiring I could use a good sidekick like that" A pro hero claim
"While we wait for Tetsutetsu and Kirishima to recover, let's move to the eighth match!" Present Mic announce as the screen show Bakugou vs Uraraka
"This might be a disturbing match, kero" Asui croak
"I know, I almost don't wanna watch" Jiro agree nervously
"The eighth and final battle in the first round of final tournament! He was kind of a hot shot in middle school! Look at that determined face! From the hero course, Katsuki Bakugou!" Present Mic announce
"Versus- The one I'm personally rooting for! From the hero course, Ochako Uraraka!" Present Mic announce
"Let the eight match begin!" Present Mic announce
