A little gift before I disapeared again. Enjoy!

I was in the infirmary to check on Tokoyami. Once I enter the room, I saw Midoriya, Uraraka and Tokoyami was talking with eachother.

"Ah Boboiboy! Come here!"

I walked in and sat on a chair between Midoriya's and Tokoyami's bed. It looks like Midoriya's surgery was a success.

"Hey, Boboiboy. Can I ask you something?"

I looked at Midoriya questionly.

"Sure. What is it?"

"Did something happen in the match?" He asked.

I got startled once I heard the question. His surgery was on my match, so why did he asked THAT question. I thought it will be like 'Hey, how was your match?' or something. But why does it sounds like he watched my match and realised my odd actions while battling? Does the others realised it too and told Midoriya what happen? Does my odd actions were THAT visible?

Ok, I'm overthinking.

"What do you mean?"

"Before your match started, I asked Uraraka to do me a favor."

Flashback...

After Boboiboy left the infirmary, Midoriya looked at Uraraka before asking.

"Hey, Uraraka? Can you do me a favor?"

"Hm? What is it?"

"Can you record Boboiboy's match for me? I really wanted to see his match even through a recored video. Can you please do that?"

Uraraka smiled before reply.

"Of course! You can count on me!"

End flashback...

Ooo... So that's how it is...

"I watched your match from the video that Uraraka recorded. And I realised that something's bothering you in the middle of the match."

Then Tokoyami added.

"I noticed that too. When you were charging at me with your lighting sword, I thought it was the end of the match. But then, you suddenly canceled your attack and decided to dodge mine. Since then, you're not giving your full attention on the match. It's like, you were thinking of something else."

Everyone was looking at me, making me feel uneasy. I sighed. Guess there's nothing I could hide it from.

"Well, you see. I think I kinda regained some of my past memories while fighting Tokoyami."

"Really?!"

I nodded. Then I looked at Tokoyami.

"Somehow, you've been giving me a familiar feeling, Tokoyami. Something about you reminds me of something that I don't remember. Or, it's more to... someone I forgot.

When we were battling, I remember some events from the past and... a friend. At first, I remember not-so-good memories. Both of us were fighting eachother, as if we wanted to kill one another."

At this point, almost everyone had a different reaction. Serious, shocked, scared.

"At that point, all negative things cross my mind, making me losing attention towards the battle. But... I'm very thankful to you, Tokoyami. If you didn't gave me a second chance, I might didn't remember the whole truth."

"The truth?"

"The truth about that friend of mine. He's not as bad as I thought he is. The fight was our past, before we become best friends. Or maybe I can say frenemy. He was my friend, as well as rival. I also remember a promise I made with him. I promised him that I will never lose to anyone else unless himself. He's the only one who will defeat me in a battle. So until that times come, I won't lose to anyone else."

There was silent before Uraraka decided to talk.

"Gosh. You boys are really competitive towards eachother huh?"

We could just laughed hearing that fact.

"If that's the case, then, I'm glad you're recovering." said Midoriya.

"Yeah."

Then, we heard the door was opened by someone. When we looked at the door, there was an old man with blonde hair entering the room.

"May I speak with Midoriya?"

"Oh yeah sure. See you again Midoriya."

We bid goodbyes to Midoriya before leaving the room. Tokoyami followed us since his injury wasn't that bad. They all went straight to their seats to watch the matches. I didn't join them since I have another important thing... to do... yeah.

I was back at the seats to watch the match. It looks like it's Bakugo's win.

"Bakugo's low-down carpet bombing blasts him into the third round! And with that, we've got our final four!"

The semi final was about to start. Now, it's Iida versus Todoroki battle.

"Both of the competitors come from renowned hero families. It's a fight between elites! Tenya Iida versus Shito Todoroki!! Start!!!"

Todoroki sent an ice attack but Iida successfully dodged it by jumping to 5he air.

"It's his standing long jump!" said Uraraka.

"Recipro Burst!"

Iida tried to send a kick towards Todoroki but missed. Not for long when Iida sent another kick, but this time, Iida successfully landed a hit on Todoroki. Without wasting time, he grabbed Todoroki's shirt and ran towards the outline ring. He planned to knock Todoroki out of the ring to win.

But his plan backfired when Todoroki used his ice to immobilise him.

"Iida is unable to continue! Todoroki moves on without using his fire powers!" said Present Mic.

"Ah, it's your match now, Boboiboy." reminded Uraraka.

"Yeah, I'm quite nervous."

Don't know why but I kinda have a bad feeling for my next match. Is it because I was nervous? Because I will be fighting Bakugo?

"You will do a great job! Just believe in yourself."

"Yeah. And remember, we will always be here, cheering for you."

I smiled at my classmates who tried to make me feel a bit confident. It kinda work but the feelings are still there.

"Then, I better get going now. Wish me luck!"

I started to run, leaving the Class A seats. Whatever it is, I will still continue my match. I just hope my feelings are wrong for once.
