In MHA With Star Platinum

Chapter 46 - 46: Race

The first event of the Sports Festival was racing and we were placed on lines in front of the gates that had opened.

Looking around, I was some familiar faces. Deku was here as well, and he was wearing some gear. I only noticed him because he was muttering something weird and was ignoring all of the eyes on him.

Looking at the eyes of the students from other departments, I could see that they are putting their lives on the line for these events.

Most of these people would go back homes, as only the top 42 students would make it the next event.

Midnight lifted her whip, before waving down, "Go."

It was the signal for us to start running. Although everyone was crowding as they ran, I was in no hurry to run first so I jogged from behind.

Soon, we reached a big field, and I noticed that everyone seemed to struggle, as there was some ice on the way.

Smirking, I squatted, applied my stand on me, and made a huge fast jump, landing at the first place and surpassing everyone.

"Hey, don't you dare go ahead of me." said an angry voice. Bakugo was running in second place.

I glanced at him as if I was looking down at him, and said, "Man up."

"Tsk," someone clicked his tongue as he had seen me appearing in front of him. Shoto, the red-white haired guy from A1, was creating ice and sliding his way to the top. I think he was the one to make the ice in our way. Good Strategy, I have to admit.

I looked behind me, to see who from my classmates had caught up.

Not everyone seemed to have a Quirk suitable for running. Some were just about close range, while others were about techniques.

Shihai seemed to do well on his own.

Pony was only running, not using his Horns Beam to fly. I guess she wants to save her power for the finals.

*Tchk* *Tchk*

I spotted some robots in our way. We heard the commentary voice, faint, from our spot. As it seems, these were robots we had faced from the entrance exam

One of them approached me from behind. Hearing him, I focused Hamon in my fist and slammed behind me without looking back.

The robot was sent flying despite his weight. You can call this as the power-up I got from taking Nomu's Life Ripple. But everyone would think it's my Aura anyway.

The small robots weren't the problem. To continue the race, we have to face that giant Robot, Zero Pointer, which was the last one we faced at the entrance exam.

And there wasn't only one Zero Pointer, as they were forming a wall in front of us.

Todoroki didn't show to stop his momentum and slide forward toward the wall of the robots. Waving his hand, Ice spread from his leg and covered the giant robots, before he continued sliding between them.

Some students saw this as an opening made by the ice guy, so they followed his steps.

However, a few seconds after Todoroki had passed, the robots which he froze started to crumble and fall on them, which forced them to use their Quirks to deal with this.

Others were catching up, and I stopped running. Turing to my classmates, I offered them my hand to help.

"Come on guys, I don't have all of the time in the world."

I have a sport car to win, and I was just nice this time to help my classmates.

"No need for help."

Shihai and Juzo made their way easily through the giant robots. The first could merge with shadows, while the latter could soften his way.

"Lee, my body." Monoma passed, as he copied someone's Quirk, "care only about yourself."

This left me a few guys and a few girls.

"Can you get through this?" Itsuka stood next to me.

"Are you going to fight your way?" Setsuna came smiling. Weird, I didn't think she would need help. "Or jump by them?"

I didn't answer and instead said, "I thought you could split your body and get through it."

"Come on, let a girl use a help," Putting two hands in a peace gesture, she said, "It takes a lot of my energy to split too many parts. I won't mind help though." She then hit my rib slightly with her elbow.

"What a pain~" I sighed as I ignored the people who struggled with the robots and the run.

"Phew, I depend on you."

"Well, I can use your help as well," Reiko came as well, "I wonder how much you can lift with your Quirk."

"I can help in making a path for you," Ibara said, as she was using her vines to create a path for us and others.

"No need, keep your strength for the last event," I said.

Commending Star Platinum to hold them with a hand each. Girls in one direction, and guys in one.

Now, it was time to see the other departments' reaction. Surely, I didn't feel sorry for them to lose places, as they wouldn't when they spread rumours.

Kendo didn't join the others and just clanged into my back.

"What is that?"

Mic Present said stunned, "Kan, what did you tell your students to do."

I guess it was shocking to see me and my classmates not running, but gathering.

"I would be proud of them no matter what happens," I heard Kan's voice. For some reason, I felt he was posing.

Applying Star Platinum at myself, and breathing slightly to stick with him, I made a very strong jump while Star Platinum was holding the rests.

I flew about the robots and surpassed them with ease. Then I looked down to the people who are still fighting their way.

"Woah." Someone exclaimed.

"Lee… you could go slower." Kendo clenched her arms around my neck, in fear to fall.

The jump was so fast, and the height was very high, you can say.

"Yuhoo." Setsuna seemed to be excited, "go for it."

Although it seemed like a jump, I actually flew a bit forward with Star Platinum.

"Kan, you…" I heard Aizawa's voice, coming from the commentary, "nice trick."

Looking down beneath me, I saw that I was flying above cliffs. Some strings were linking between them, and others were climbing.

The guys with good Quirks like Bakugo and Todoroki could make their way easily.

However, most of the students stopped and looked up to my group, up.

It was easy to tell what they were thinking of.

I jumped randomly and we would fall between the cliffs, eliminating us in the result.

But, let me show them my Stand power.

Observing where I was about to land, I slowed my falling, using Star Platinum's power to float before landing. My classmates had thought the fall would be tough, but they were wrong as we landed safely on the right spot.

"Damn it…" Bakugo, who was flying forward by making explosions from his hand, cursed. "I won't let you beat me."

"Round two!" Again, I jumped high and flew even past Todoroki, who got competitive all of the sudden and used his ice to enhance his speed. And I crossed this flew easily.

As I was about to land, on the last field before the finals, I stopped a meters away from it.

I then heard the commentary voice, "This is the mines field. Beware where to step, or you would explode."

"Okay, guys, you are on your own now."

Sighing, I put the bunch of B1 people were around me.

I know, my action had made more people get eliminated. Some may not deserve it. But who cares. This is how the world is working.

I put the rest on the ground, except for Kendo, who still wanted to clang on my back.

I had already done enough to the class, and it's time to guarantee that I would win the festivals, alone.

They soon start walking carefully above the field, trying their best not to step at the wrong spot.

Pony got to use her ability to float with her horns, while Ibara seemed to be gentle to remove the bombs from her way.

Setsuna, on the other hand, would have an easier time.

Only if not that splitting her body to parts, while wearing this costume, would make her n.a.k.e.d when she gathers her parts.

Opening my arms, with a long leap, I floated. Star Platinum helped me to move forward. Then I crossed my arms as I saw that I would get it first, with Itsuka as the second.

However, some people weren't happy with the development. They were trying to catch up.

I found it impropriate to raise my middle finger at them as they were trying to catch up… so I just increased my speed.

The ground beneath me turned to ice, and everyone started to run.

*BOOM* *BOOM*

"Damn it."

"Sheksko."

"What an ordeal." With the increase in speed, I made my flight faster.

I classed first as I passed a narrow path, and finally, I was the first one to reach the end.

***

I was now at the same beginning spot. The race obviously was over and I was the first one to reach. Pony third, and Ibara forth. Followed by some A1 students.

I could hear the cheers from the audience as I landed first. I just glanced them, looking for my mom. Here she is. A smile was drawn on my face as I raised my index.

Bakugo was cursing as he got the forth while Shoto got the fifth .

***

Some people misunderstood when Lee raised his finger.

It seemed like he was saying that he would be number one here as well. But only she understood him. Julia, who was with the audience, frowned, "the Festivals has yet to over." But that was good. At least, this way, she can brag about him.

***

Very soon, as the race was over, I could see that most of the other students were looking at me. Everyone literally. Some held a grudge and complained that it's not fair; sue me if you don't like it.

"Now, to the second event." The referee, Midnight, waved her whip.

A group of names appeared on the screen, as Midnight pointed with her hand there. Looking there, I noticed our names with scores next to them.
