-Later after the first round-

Midnight: The first game of the first-year stage is finally over. Now, take a look at the results.

-Y/N and Izuku was 1st place, Todoroki was 2nd place, Bakugo 3rd, and you know the rest. Aoyama is placed 42th-

Midnight: The top 42 made it through to the next round. It's unfortunate, but don't worry even if you didn't make it! We've prepared other chances for you to shine. *licked her lips* The real competition begins next! The press cavalry'll be all over it! Give it your all!

-The board is randomizing for the next round-

Midnight: *make a sound from her whip* Now then, here is the second game. I already know what it is, but what could it be? What could it be? I just said it, and now here it is...

-The board reveals the next round to be "Cavalry Battle"-

Kaminari: A cavalry battle? I'm bad at those...

Asui: It's not an individual event, so I wonder how it'll work...

Mineta: Cavarly battle!

Midnight: Let me explain. The participants can form teams of two to four people as they wish. Five is optional. It's basically the same as a regular cavalry battle, but the one thing that's different is... based on the results of the last game, each person has been assigned a point value.

Sato: A point-based system like the entrance exam, huh? That's easy to understand.

Uraraka: In other words, each team is worth different points depending on who's on the team!

Ashido: I see!

Midnight: *whips and was a little annoyed that the students are talking while she is talking to them* You guys don't hold back even though I'm talking, huh?! Yes, that's right! And the points assigned go up by five starting from the bottom. So the 42th place gets 5 points, and 41st gets 10 points! And the point value assigned to first place is... 10 million points but there's is 2 winner in the first place the point will split into half!

Midoriya: *froze in place and was shock that he got millions, so did the others* 1-10 million points in half?!

Shinso: *smirk* (10 million points in half huh?)

Hatsume: (In other words if we take down his team...)

Rest of the students: (You'll win the Calvary and take the win yourself.)

-The other students said as they looked at Izuku and Y/N with red demon eyes-

Midnight: That's right. It's survival of the fittest, with a chance for those at the bottom to overthrow the top! All the students glared at him which stunned Midoriya in place.

Y/N: *Smirk* Omoshiroi! Let's see who can take me down.

Midoriya: (Everyone is planning to bring me down. I only secured first place with my luck and Y/N helping me. ...)

Toshinori: *look at izuku expression* (You're quick on update the situation, Midoriya-Shomen.)

Midoriya: (But still... It's this heavy All Might?)

Midnight: Now then, I will explain the rules of the cavalry battle. The time limit is 15 minutes. Each team is worth the total of its members' points, and the riders will wear a headband with that number on their foreheads. Team will try to grab each other's headbands until time run out, and try to keep as many points as they can. Stolen headbands must be worn from the neck up. So the more you steal, the harder it'll be to manage them! And the most important thing is that even if your headband gets stolen, or of your team falls, you're not out!

Yaoyorozu: Which means...

Sato: ...since there are 43 people, there will be 10 or 12 teams on the field the whole time?

Aoyama: *hugging his stomach after using quirk too much in the first round* That's tough....

Ashido: One strategy could be to let someone take your points first so you'll be more free.

Asui: It's hard to say without seeing how all the points end up getting split up, Mina.

Midnight: During the game, it'll be a cruel fight where you can use your Quirks. But it is still a cavalry battle. You'll get a red card for attacks that are trying to make the people fall on purpose! You'll be removed immediately!

Bakugo: Tsk.

-The board showed a timer fifteen minutes for the students to pair up into a team-

Midnight: Now, you have fifteen minutes to build your team. Start!

-At The Staff Break Room-

Death Arm: The sports Festival isn't about seeing how to prepare they are at being Hero, it's more about simulating the competition they face when they go Pro. *smoking a cigarette*

Mt Lady: What are you talking about?

Death Arm: *breath out the smoke from cigarette* We both know this country is overflowing with hero agency right now, if you want to put food on the table you got to be ready to step on top of other Heroes, that was the whole point of the first game.

Mt Lady: *use right hand cover her nose and other hand to clean the smoke* That's such a sad way to look at our jobs.

Kamui Wood: Seriously you never have a problem stealing the spotlight. *remember the giant villain she steals from him*

Death Arm: But on the other hand, even if you're battling each other for popularity there is a lot of time you need to work together.

Mt Lady: You're right it's just like the Cavalry Battle, every point you score is not just for you but for your teammate as well, plus you need to think about how Quirk works together and who you're compatible with.

Kamui Wood: It's kind of like coordinating with your sidekick or doing Quirk training with other agencies.

Death Arm: I'm sure at least some of the kids are thinking about all of this if they become pros it will be their way of life.

Mt Lady: They still got a long road ahead of them.

-Back in the Stadium-

-Some of class 1A students surround Bakugo-

Sato: *use his thumbs pointing at himself* You should team up with me.

Ashido *point at herself* Bakugo, Team up with me!

Aoyama: I don't want to beg but please. *trying to hold his stomach*

Bakugo: Wait remind me what your Quirk is again and your name?

Ashido: Are you kidding we're your classmate!

Sato: Can you really be that self-center?

Toshinori: *watching from the teacher's room* He's a hothead but he came in third and he has 200 points and considering how versatile his Quirk is I'm not surprised people are trying to join up with him.

Kirishima: *wave hand at bakugo* Hey Bakugo, I was gonna try Todoroki but he already picks his teammate, so hey we should team up.

Bakugo: Hey, dumb hair.

Kirishima: It's Kirishima and my hair is not that different from yours! You want to be the rider right? So you need a strong front horse no who won't be hurt by your blast right? Who do you think it will fit most? *activating his Quirk to prove his point Bakugo stare at him*

Bakugo: I need someone with guts.

Kirishima: Not exactly, but yes. Me, and my Quirk was made for this I got you cover man let go charging into battle together. You want 10 million points from Y/N and Midoriya right? Bring it.

Bakugo: *smirk* Alright, you're in.

Mineta: Shoji...SHOJI! *call out to his six arm classmate*

Shoji: Hm? *look at Mineta*

Mineta: None of the girls want to team up with me please be my partner. *Mineta said crying* I'm super tiny to be a horse and nobody wants me to climb on top of them so I can't be the rider.

Shoji: *walk away*

Mineta: *With your big body and those tentacles you can cover me completely, right? So no one can take my headband.

Shoji: ! *use one of his arm have a mouth and talk to him* Good idea Mineta, let go.

Midoriya: (As I expected... Everyone are teaming up with their classmates. We don't know the Quirks from other class. I have to hurry, and do something...with this situation where I'm being avoided.) *

-Izuku completely been isolated-

Midoriya: *come close to Ojiro* Um.. Ojiro-kun...

Ojiro: ! *try to walk away avoiding Izuku* Sorry. *feel a bit guilty but walk away*

Midoriya: Ah! *stand there completely shock* (Of course it's a better strategy to steal points at the end, rather than trying to hold into the points. And unlike Y/N-kun, Todoroki-kun and Kacchan, I didn't showcase my Quirk so no one has confidence in me.)

-For some reason, there are some students who wants to pair up with Y/N because of his ability and famous-

Male Student 1: Hey, L/N-san ! Team with me!

Male Student 2: No, me!

Male Student 3: How about me?!

Female Student 1: Pair up with me Y/N-sama!

Male Student 4: It should be me, instead!

Female Student 2: Y/N-sama! Wanna team up with me?

Y/N: *smile* I appreciate the offer but i already have someone in mind. *walk away and saw that Izuku is so isolated*

Uraraka: Y/N-Kun! *pat his shoulder from behind*

Y/N: Oh, Uraraka-San.

Uraraka: Wanna team with Deku-Kun?

Y/N: Sure, why not.

Uraraka: Let's go then!

-The two went up to Midoriya, who had his mouth and eyes wide opened because no one wants to team up with him-

Uraraka: Deku-kun!

Y/N: Yo Izuku-kun!

Midoriya *turned slowly to see Uraraka and Y/N*

Uraraka: Let's team up!

Midoriya: *cried out tears that it's no different then the fountain water*

Midoriya: Uraraka-San! Y/N-Kun! I-Is it really okay?! Everyone'll probably be after me because of my 5 million points!

Y/N: Don't worry. Beside i also have 5 million points so we not much different.

Uraraka: If you run away the whole time, then you'll win, right?

Midoriya: *stopped crying out tears.* I-I think you're overestimating me, Uraraka-San...

Uraraka: Of course I would!

Y/N: I think I'm sure that I am not overestimating you.

Uraraka: Anyway, it's better teaming up with people you get along! *smile*

Y/N: *cover his face* Too bright!

Midoriya: *face expression changed into some kind of ugly face with his eyes and mouth closed tight*

Y/N: *had no words at all of his face expression and was speechless at the same time*

Uraraka: What's the matter? You look ugly, you know.

Midoriya: Oh, nothing... It's just that you're so bright that I can't look straight at you...

Y/N: Touche...

Midoriya: Actually, I wanted to team up with both of you, too. Thanks!

Y/N: No problem.

Midoriya: For teams, it's best to be with people you can communicate with smoothly, right?

Uraraka: Yup, yup!

Y/N: Well, who do you know that communicates smoothly?

Midoriya: Let's see... With your Quirk and one other person...I thought of a plan.

-They looked at Iida.-

Y/N: Iida-kun. Am I right?

Midoriya: *nod and all the 3 go to Iida*

Midoriya: Iida-kun!

Badoraku: Yo, Iida-kun. Wanna join?

——————

-A Few Moments Later-

-The four gathered in a circle together to make a plan for the cavalry battle-

Midoriya: The four of us would be horses with Iida in the front! And then, if we use Uraraka's Quirk to make Iida and me lighter, we'd be able to maneuver easily.

Uraraka: I see!

Y/M: Omoshiroi...

Midoriya: It's better to have someone physically strong as the rider, but I haven't decided who...

-They looked at Y/N-

Y/N: Me? No, thank you. I may be strong, but I declined.

Midoriya: Okay then.

Iida: I expected no less, Midoriya-kun...But I am afraid I have to refuse.

-This shocked Izuku and Ochako, but not too much for Y/N-

Iida: Ever since the entrance exam, I just keep losing to you. You are a wonderful friend, but that's why, if I just keep following you, I will never grow.

Y/N: You do have a point there, Iida. I agree.

Iida: Thank you, Y/N-kun. *rearranged his glasses' position a bit* Bakugo and Todoroki aren't the only ones who see you two as a rival *turned around to head to Todoroki's direction* I will challenge you two.

Uraraka: Iida-kun...

Y/N: Fair enough, I wish you luck.

Uraraka: But Y/N-kun...

Y/N: It's fine. If he wants to refuse, then let him do it. It's his choice, not ours.

-Little did they know that Hatsume from the support course slowly approached from behind-

Hatsume: As I thought, this is great. You stand out!

-They turned to see Mei-

Hatsume: Team up with me, person in first place!

Midoriya: Ahh, so close! Who're you?!

Hatsume: I am Mei Hastume, from the support course!

Uraraka: Oh, that weird person from back then.

Hatsume: I don't know you, but let me use your position!

Y/N: Sure but one question. Why?

Hatsume: If I team up with you two, then I'll inevitably become part of the team everyone's watching most, right?

Y/N: I don't kno--

Hatsume: If that happens, then my super cute babies will inevitably be seen by the big companies. *got more closer than before* That means, in other words, that those big companies will see my babies!

Uraraka: W-Wait a minute. Babies and big companies? What are you--

Hatsume: *still busy talking to Midoriya* And, I think you guys will also benefit.

Y/N: I think she means her inventions.

Hatsume: The support course develops equipment that helps heroes deal with their Quirks. I have a ton of babies, so I'm sure you'll be able to find one that you like! *open her suitcase with a lot of items inside*

Midoriya: *literally speechless*

Hatsume: Oh, has this one caught your eyes? *take out a device look like a jet pack*

Midoriya: Huh?

Hatsume: I made this based on a certain hero's backpack, adding my original twist to it.

Midoriya: Could you be talking about the Buster Hero, Air Jet? I like him, too!

Hatsume: Really?

Midoriya: Yeah, his agency's close, so I went to tour it before.

Hatsume: Wait! Can't forget about you. *changed her attention to Y/N and immediately went up close to him*

Y/N: Whoa, calm down! What is it?

Hatsume: You know what I want to know.

Y/N: No...?

Hatsume: Those babies of yours... The belt that you wear and those item on it... Where did you get those?! How did you make it?! Please, I wanna know!

Y/N: Okay, calm down. Personal space.

Hatsume: Oh, right. Sorry, I just get excited when I see another invention.

Y/N: Is my Quirk actually.

Hatsume: Are you sure? I think you're lying. I want to replicate the belt and  those supposed items in my way.

Y/N: Sorry, but no can do.

Hatsume: Aw... Well, nice talking to you. No really, those babies you have are really cool and interesting

Y/N: But I have an item that I'm planning to make it. Do you interest to make it?

Hatsume: Oh, an item you say? I'm listening.

Y/N: *give her an Usb flash drive* I want you to create what is on this flash drive. The blueprint is also on this.

Hatsume: Let's me see. *take out a mini Laptop and place the flash drive on* !!! This is... *shock what she see inside*

Y/N: What do you think about it?

Hatsume: Subarashii! This Baby is the most beautiful one I ever see. *very excited about the item* I will take the offer but it will take while to make it because there is a lot of rare material to make it.

Y/N: That's fair.

Midoriya: (We already have enough numbers but we're still missing something...) *looking for one more member to form five members in a team* (A power that's missing in our cavalry... The one that can fill that spot...) ! *start moving*

Uraraka: Deku-kun?

Midoriya: *tap on Tokoyami shoulder* It's you!

Y/N: Before time's up, let me just Henshin first *place the desire driver on and place Powered Builder Buckle on the right and Boost Buckle on the left*

•Desire Driver - Set Creation•

Y/N: Henshin.

•Deployed powered system — Gigant Hammer — Ready, fight•

-With some of the Class 1B-

Manoma: Almost everyone of the audience is foaming at the mouth for Class 1A, why is that ? they're so full of themselves just like Tetsutetsu said earlier, why are they stars ?, the only difference between them and us is that they fought a couple of villains, just because we're Class 1B doesn't mean we're second rate or can't win this whole thing, so let's step it up and show those jerks what we can do, are you with me?  *asked his classmates*

-Then, time was up and all of the students are paired up into teams with the riders with headbands on their head-

Midnight: Now then, it's about time to get started!

Present Mic: After fifteen minutes to form teams and talk strategy, twelve cavalry teams are lined up on the field!

Aizawa: There are
