Sports Festival! Isn't that Edgeshot?
Fumikage muses at the declaration of the other students. To think that a school event could be so competitive that they would block the other students from leaving.
"Consider this a declaration of war!" The class 1-B student said, earning shouts of agreements from the other classes.
"Maa, how cute. Now that your done, can you move out of the way now?"
And Kamihara somehow made things more heated. The other classes glared at him, daring him to continue. Really must they be so competitive. Sure they have a chance to go to 1-A, but they have to remember that the class are also going to be training harder for the festival too.
"You 1-A students are so arrogant!" A blond said. Fumikage wants nothing more but to send Dark Shadow and be done with this. But seriously, arrogant? Sure there's Bakugou.
"I bet you all enjoy fawning on the spotlight! Tch, just cause you have been in a villain attack doesn't mean your popular."
And now the blond was getting on his nerves. Them fawning on the spotlight? They didn't even asked for that. Fumikage can't help but hate the media for blemishing and sugarcoating their story.
"Maa, are you done? Some people have curfews you know." Kamihara said, boredly looking at them. He is correct, others would want to go home and tell their families the news about the festival.
The blond scoffed, muttering about arrogant 1-A students, and turned heel. Others followed suit.
Fumikage sighed, he was just glad it didn't got too intense. Kamihara looked at him, and for some strange reason that look unnerved him.
"Maa, you three would be training with me for the festival." It was obvious that Kamihara won't take no for an answer. Atleast he's a good teacher, but still..
Fumikage felt fear at the glint in Kamihara's eyes, it was worse than Aizawa-sensei. Next to him, Kaminari paled and Todoroki have a strange look in his face.
..his two weeks of training would be hell.
Katsuki felt anger. UA's Sports Festival is the perfect time for him to show all those extras that he is the number one. But mask face just won't take a hint. That or he plain ignore it.
There was mask face reading that book he always read, his left eye closed. That forehead protector he wore was not allowed on the festival.
Dunce face was chatting excitedly towards shadow boy and half-n-half bastard, the latter ignoring him while the former nods every so often.
It was time for Katsuki to tell mask face that he will win the festival. Marching towards the four, Katsuki noticed how the three others saw him coming.
"Hey mask face!"
"Hmm?"
Katsuki grits his teeth. That reply was so dispassionate, it made his blood boil. Mask face is going to regret this.
"I'm going to win this festival, you hear me?!" Katsuki growled, small explosions setting off. "Not you, me!"
He grab mask face collar, and was about to punch him. Just as his fist was about to collide, a hand stop it.
Katsuki glared, before freezing. The collar he was pulling was replaced with a red fabric akin to a scarf.
"Isn't that Edgeshot?!"
Shinya looked at the blond who had just been threatening his son. It was cute, really, at how the boy thinks he had a chance.
He let go of the boy's fist and turned to face Kakashi. His son was giving the blond an unimpress look. He was the only one to know the difference between Kakashi's other expressions.
"Well Kashi, this is it." Shinya said, looking at his son with a proud gaze. "Your first step in becoming a hero."
Kakashi gave a humm, signifying that he was listening attentively. The other three with him was looking in mild confusion, he can even see the confusion on the poker face one was sporting.
"You will go out there and show them your abilities." Shinya felt like giving more hints in what he meant. He knew Kakashi was planning on failing in purpose. "You take this seriously, alright?"
Kakashi's eye narrowed at that statement. Good, he caught on what he was saying. Kakashi gave a barely noticeable nod.
"Great, now let me take a picture." Pulling out his phone, he readied it for a selfie. "Smile!"
Kakashi did what he said, or the equivalent of it. His eye closed, making it look more pointy. The eye smile was adorable.
Edgeshot grinned behind his mask as he upload the picture with the hashtags saying, #at sports festival with my son #ProudPapa
"How cute. The internet would love this."
That snaps Kakashi up. He leaped towards him, ready to take his phone. Shinya grinned turned larger as he dodged his son.
"Sorry Kashi but even if you delete it, hundreds of people already saw it." That was not a lie. He tends to be secretive, which is why anything he posts would garner lots of views for a clue to his life.
He had waited for so long to show the world how adorable his son is, and now he can do it. He can't wait to embarass, ahem, show Kakashi and his cuteness.
"Anyway, remember what I said." Shinya said, looking at his pouting son. How he can tell Kakashi is pouting behind a mask is a secret Shinya will never share. "Give them your best, alright son!"
"Son?!" Chorus the ones close to them. The other students who were obviously eavesdropping gape in shock.
"I knew it!"
Shinya and Kakashi blinked at that response. The boy, who he recognized as Endeavor's kid, had a smug aura around him.
"I knew you were Edgeshot's secret love child!" Todoroki said, smug at his correct assumption. Todoroki then proceed to mutter under his breath, though Shinya still caught it. "Now to prove that Midoriya is All Might's secret love child."
What is Endeavor teaching this kid? Not that his is any better.
"Anyway I should get going." Shinya said throwing a smokebomb as he left the backstage.
Kakashi scowled, his father just have to ruin his fun. He wanted to keep the similarities between him and his father to confused people much longer.
Oh well.
If his father wants him as the media's new darling, so be it.
"Huh, I guess ninja-ness runs in the family." Kaminari said, earning nods from both Todoroki and Tokoyami.
Thosetraitors.
Luckily, before any questions can start, the classes were called out. Kakashi followed them, noticing Midnight on the stage.
If Jiraiya was here, he'll be crying tears of joy.
That thought made Kakashi feel better, maybe everything else will go smoothly.
"And we call the student player, Kamihara Kakashi, unto the stage to give his speech."
Maybenot.
Kakashi walked to the stage, planning an impromptu speechas he walks. If his father hadn't told him to take this seriously he would have just give a half-ass speech instead.
Looks like it was time for him to channel his Hokage persona. Hopefully, all those speech lessons Gaara had given him and the amount of speeches Naruto did would help him.
Izuku wasn't sure how to feel with the fact that Kamihara was about to give a speech. If he hadn't seen and heard Edgeshot telling Kamihara to take this seriously he would be feeling dread instead.
It can't be as bad as what Bakugou might say, right?
Kamihara stand on the podium staring at them. How Kamihara can do that with one eye, Izuku has no clue.
"Today is the day all of us will make our first steps as heroes."
That was a good start. Maybe it won't turn out so bad.
"All of us have to remember that this day is important for our future. We must remember to show them our power even if you fail knowing you did your best will be an achievement already."
"Being a hero is not just a duty. It is a passion, a drive to do what is right. If you are only here to crush 1-A then you are no true hero."
What was Kamihara doing? He was doing so well, but he just have to antagonized the other classes. Izuku gulped, the other classes were glaring at Kamihara who wasn't even fazed.
"You are only here in a fake attempt to put 1-A down, a class that didn't even have a choice in that villain battle."
"Being a hero is to do what it takes to survive and 1-A did that during the villain attack. We didn't fought to be publicized, we fought because it was either to fight or die. Have you even give thought about the fact that 1-A was fighting against villains who would not hesitate to kill? Of the fact that it was children against adults?"
Many of the other students started looking guilty. Izuku never thought of that, of the fact that none of the other classes realized just how deadly the USJ attack was.
"Being a hero means fighting against what the public thinks. A true hero does what he/she sees is right even if the media paints them as people who could have done something else."
"Being a hero is to do the impossible everyday. Even if others claimed that it is a lost cause."
"A true hero is someone who knows their limits yet pushes it to go further. A true hero is someone who believes they can do it and will never stop even if others claims that it is unreachable."
The passionate way he said it, the way his voice hold such emotion. Izuku can't help but think that Kamihara was speaking from experience.
"All of us have a chance to be true heroes."
"We are future heroes, we are the next generation! The next generation will always surpass the previous ones. It is one of the never-ending cycles in life. So we will show them what are generation can do! Plus Ultra!" Kamihara finished.
As soon as he finish, the whole crowd went wild with cheers. Izuku grinned, Kamihara gave an incredible speech.
If the next generation surpass the previous, then that means I can surpass All Might and use One For All!
Edgeshot can't help the pride he felt at his son's speech. He watched in the VIP area as Kakashi walked back towards his class.
Shinya blinked, feeling the air getting warmer. He looked at the source and saw Endeavor looking furiously at his son.
Edgeshot narrowed his eyes before hitting Endeavor in the head with a piece of wood he produce from a seal. Kakashi's antics are quite useful in shocking everyone on where he got that and where he went and...oh Kami, he was starting to act more like Kakashi.
"What did you do that for?" Endeavor growled, glaring at him. Edgeshot channeled his most Kakashi look and spoke in the deadliest protective father voice.
"You know exactly why I did that. Don't even think about it Endeavor. Number two pro hero or not, hurt my son and I will end you."
Endeavor looked away as he finish his threat. Shinya knew Endeavor knew he meant it. After all, he is the only hero who can assassinate someone and get away with no one suspecting him. Hell, he can kill AllMight in a crowd and no one would even notice him.
Shinya looked back at Kakashi. He knew very well Kakashi would win the festival, he made sure to make it so. After all his son would much rather half-ass it, unless he tell him to actually take this seriously.
