Team 7 (Elly, Leith, Clara)
------- vs -------
Team 8 (Jack, Chiha, Aislyn)

Part 1


Clara's face reddened when Elly offered her hand to her. After a hesitation and small smile she took her hand to shake it. Quickly pulling back when she had the chance. "I-I'm sure you will. Your quirk is amazing. I will be sure to help you as much as I can." she said softly but trying to sound more sure than she was. She followed slightly behind them as they walked, she held her left bicep with her right hand while listening to Leith as he offered his two cents as they made their way towards the arena

"Huh, that's impressive!" Leith commented, eyes wide as he walked beside Elly and Clara. "You may have been thrown in at the deep end, but that's where someone like you will do best."




Chiha looked over to Aislyn as she suddenly said she could fall in love with her. Pulling her head back suddenly. She was confused at the sudden outburst, the timing and the fact she didn't know what to say to a comment like that. luckily she didn't have to say anything as she moved on explaining her quirk. But when it came for the time she gave her idea she couldn't help but catch her falling head in the palm of her own hand. for multiple or reasons. Aislyn... looking back at the girl with a 'seriously?' Don't yell the signal next to the other teams....and who uses a rooster call for a signal still?

shaking her head she then moved on to say, "Anyway, I think jumping Jack and I should do most of the fighting while Aislyn stays behind us and out of reach from the others. They don't know you so a yawn right in the beginning should work."

"Yawn right off the bat? 'Kay, I can do that. Guess I don't need the signal if you guys already know it'll be coming right away, huh? Good, that was kind of embarrassing," Aislyn said, giving a nod to Chiha in understanding of the strategy.




Leith took his place in the arena, a serious, focused look replacing his usual playful grin. At the sound of the whistle, he activated his Quirk, water vapour gathering in the air over Elly's head. "Hold them off," he whispered to Clara. A shield would give him enough time to form a decent rain cloud.

Clara gave a quick nod, her nervousness spiked as it was going to be full contact today... she just hoped she didn't get too hurt. She closed her eyes for a moment before her armor began to seemingly melt and flow down both her arms. Leaving just enough to cover her body still in a simple form fitting plain design, the extra that moved to her arms turned into a large rectangle shield that was five feet tall and three feet wide.

Across from Leith, Jack smirked. "Alright you lucky ladies, watch this," he said with a wink at his teammates, ignoring the not-so-subtle hints Aislyn had dropped that he wasn't quite her type. With a jump and a flick of his springstilts, he was in the air. He'd expected the cloud to form over his team, not over the blue-haired girl, but whatever Leith was doing, he'd put a stop to it. He flipped in midair, hurtling down, one leg outstretched. "Clear weather ahead!"

 As it was about fully formed she noticed Jack jumping into the air. She quickly moved in front of Leith and allowed her shield to hit the ground with a large thud, tilting it back as she lowered herself to prepare for the impact. From the back of the shield. Two, inch thick cylinders shot back into the ground. She hardened them to help brace herself.

Chiha didn't even look at Jack as he still flirted with them. Only pulling her bokken from her belt and getting into a stance. She groaned when she saw Jack suddenly rush in. Did the idiot not listen to the plan? She didn't move forward as she didn't want to not see Aislyn when she was about to yawn.

Chiha didn't have to wait long, as the moment the whistle sounded, Aislyn's eyes shot open in surprise, then, remembering the plan Chiha outlined, started inhaling air, her mouth opening wide and her eyes watering as they were forced closed. Then, she waited for the yawn to come. She didn't actually have control over when she could yawn, she could only act like she was going to and hope her body was good at "yes, and" improv.

Foot striking the shield, Jack bounced off, rolling across the ground in a rather less graceful motion. He stood up with a grunt, bruises twinging. Dang, Clara had moved faster than he'd expected, and he'd barely left a crack in that reinforced glass.

Behind the shield, Leith exhaled with relief. "Thanks," he said to Clara, before turning his focus back to the cloud, building it up as fast as he could. Droplets fell from it onto Elly's head, intensifying to a downpour. Glimpsing Jack leaping over the three of them, he whirled around to see him land and rush the group from behind.

Elly hadn't flinched at Jack's rapid advance, instead wearing a small smile. Though she had only met her two teammates, she was trusting them fully, and Clara's quick reaction was already proof that the trust wasn't misplaced. As Leith's cloud started to pour on her, the girl tilted her face back and raised her hands, enjoying the feeling of the quirk-made rain on her skin.

"Nice move, but can you block attacks from all sides?" Jack taunted. He wasn't typically one for plans - not like he needed them - but if he and Chiha closed in from different directions, that'd be a simple way to throw off their opponents' defenses. Assuming Chiha did something instead of just standing there, of course, even if it was probably in awe at him. He sped up his sprint, made to throw his weight into a kick... and tottered back as Leith's cloud drifted to him, no longer pelting rain but marble-sized hailstones.

After a couple moments, Aislyn felt a real yawn come, forcing her to inhale once more before exhaling all the air she'd taken in, her quirk activating when she let her vocal chords vibrate during the yawn. A weak pressure wave burst from her mouth, carrying her deep "Ahhhhhhhh..." across the cityscape-like arena her team was fighting in, causing a doppler effect in the ear of anyone who heard it. As well, any listeners would then find themselves getting drowsy, much like how Aislyn herself acted almost every moment.

After letting all the air out, Aislyn closed her mouth, wiping the tears from her eyes. "...Timer's started. Five minutes. It's like an alarm clock but when it goes off you fall asleep instead of wake up," she explained in a normal tone of voice, not that the other team would be able to hear her.

Chiha shook her head at Jack as he fell into the trap he was supposed to know was coming. Humming loudly in her head to help block out the sound for extra protection. She glanced over to see Aislyn was done. She lowered her hands. Hearing what she said. Well if that was true, in five minutes she would probably be the only one standing. She just had to make sure of it. She pulled her Bokken back out from her belt loop and looked to the fight.

Leith followed up the hailstorm with a kick of his own to Jack's chest, sending him stumbling back. Just then, a yawn rippled through the area, oddly loud in his ears. A wave of drowsiness swept over him, but this wasn't just the contagious effect of a regular yawn. His eyelids grew heavy and his shoulders drooped, like he'd fall asleep mid-battle if he didn't resist. Giving a sharp shake of his head, he formed another cloud over himself, Clara and Elly, unleashing a light snowfall in the hope that it would perk them up and offset the effect.

Elly paused at the loud yawn that had slowed her body down instantly. Interesting. She pushed her wet bangs off her forehead and eyed the other team as Leith's shock of cold came. The girl smirked after her small jump. Okay, this time she wouldn't get mad about it, because it did help some. It's not like she hadn't pushed herself through exhaustion a thousand times before anyways. The water and snow that remained on her skin sank into her body, and Elly felt herself become invigorated, almost a strange sensation next to the forced drowsiness.

Team Seven weren't the only ones to feel the effect. Before Jack could stagger to his feet, he heard the yawn. "Wha...?" He stood, lurching from the sleepy sensation. Well, shit, he thought as he stared, stunned, across the arena. "Ugh, what happened to giving some kind of sign?" he called, fighting the urge to yawn himself. Ok, maybe he hadn't listened to the plan all that carefully, but who could blame him for finding the girls' cuteness distracting?

Aislyn forced her eyes open, looking down the street to see Jack already engaging the other team. "Wait...when did he get over there?" she asked, pointing him out to Chiha. She took another look, squinting to focus her vision past the clear wall that had been erected in front of the other team. Was that...a cloud dropping snow on the other team? Well, that wasn't good. If Jack got hit by her quirk but the other team is using the shock of cold to stay alert, he was fighting 3-on-1 at a huge disadvantage! "We should...probably save him."

Her mind made up, Aislyn began running down the street. Only, her run was very slow, looking more like a series of floaty jumps, much like how someone on the moon would move. It wasn't a particularly speedy form of travel, but it kept her from tripping on herself or something else and falling over. Hopefully either Chiha would be faster or Jack could hold out for a moment...

There--Elly was ready, and spotted the moment of weakness Jack had shown, alone and caught up in his own thoughts. Strength-enhanced legs from the water Leith had given her let her explode forward into a sprint low to the ground. The girl stumbled for a moment, still not fully used to the extra power, but caught her balance mid-stride. She stared daggers into him as she rapidly closed the distance, intent on making him expect the crushing hit she was threatening as she began to pull her fist back, forcing him to make a choice in a hurry--try to block, try to get out of the way, try to hit her back instead--whatever it was, make the choice and make it now, while she had him in check, watching for the slightest twitch that would give his decision away.

Groaning, Jack rolled his eyes as Aislyn ran - or rather, slowly bounced - towards him. "Oh please. Do I look like I need saving?" As it turned out, that moment of inattentiveness, combined with his dulled reactions from Aislyn's Quirk, were all the blue-haired girl needed to close in. Judging by her speed, she must have somehow used the water to power up. Seeing her clenched fist, Jack crouched, preparing to jump out of the way - and stumbled from the drowsiness, right as he activated his springstilts no less. Instead of launching him into the air, they flipped him onto his face.

Chiha rolled her eyes. We could just let him be the distraction... she thought to herself. Quietly darting to the side to try and flank them as they focused on Jack. She was surprised at the blue hair girls speed, the water the boy gave her must be a major support. She knew her target right then. Eyes on the boy she shifted her sprint towards him. The blonde haired girl with glass still beside him, now standing with the shield, looking towards the others but in between her and her target.

Clara looked around at the others as they all started to get drowsy, slightly confused as she didn't know what happened. Her shield was large enough and thick enough she didn't hear the yawn that came from the girl. Tensing up and shivering at the snow that touched her skin. She didn't have time to ask him why he was doing it she noticed movement to her left, seeing the girl with the wooden sword coming directly towards her. Her heart jumped at the sight. Her fear rising as the girl looked super fast and perhaps skilled with the blade. She wasn't good with fighting directly in melee. She did shift her shield to protect herself, allowing it to grow a bit more by thinning the thickness of it.

Chiha frowned only slightly when the other girl saw her, seeing her shield grow slightly. She raised her bokken slightly over her right shoulder to strike, seeing the girl plant her shield once more. Chiha at the last moment while only slowing down very slightly struck. But it didn't even hit the shield as she pulled in the slash close to her body and jumped on her last step. Using the momentum to do a lazy and graceful side flip over the girl and shield. Placing her hand on the girls head and pushed to clear her and push her in the opposite direction.

Clara braced for the attack but didn't feel it, confused she wasn't ready for a sudden push from behind. Pushing her into her own shield and hitting her head on it. Which only caused her to collapse entirely. Wincing in pain she couldn't do anything but warn Leith with only calling out his name by the time Chiha reached him. "LEITH!"

She landed as lightly as a leaf and didn't miss a beat sprinting towards the boy, she swung her Bokken at his legs just behind his knees. If they connected or not she would follow up with her sword and swing downwards and at an angle to his chest.

Leith was focused - well, as focused as he could be - on the opponent moving forward in drifting jumps. He sent the cloud towards her, the snow turning into sizeable hailstones to slow her approach. Just as the chunks of ice started falling, a rush of movement to the side, followed by a thud and Clara calling his name, drew his attention. "Clara! You ok?" He made to hurry over, but the snow had only sharpened his sleepiness-dulled reflexes so much. A wooden blade struck him behind the knees, sending him tumbling backwards. Before he could recover, the swordswoman struck him in the chest, knocking the breath from him.

Close by, Jack rubbed his jaw as he stood up, watching Chiha bring two opponents to the ground in a fluid series of blows. "Not bad," he commented, "but I can do much bette-Waugh!" He slipped on a patch of slush and fell again.

In no better a position, Leith winced and curled as he rolled onto his side. He stretched out a leg and hooked it behind Chiha's feet in an attempt to trip her over. As he did, something struck his face - something icy and hard. Another hailstone followed, then another, as the cloud spread out of his control. He gritted his teeth, trying to dispel it, only for the hail to fall faster and harder over the arena. Drowsiness and distraction were NOT a good combination.

As fighting got underway behind Clara's now prone body, laying on top of the knocked down shield thanks to Chiha, Aislyn finally closed the distance, stopping in front of Clara. "Whoop," Aislyn cheered with about as much energy as one would expect from the droopy-eyed girl, as she hopped up above Clara. As she descended, she bent her knees and prepared to jump again the moment she landed on Clara, then, using the toppled girl as a springboard, performed a large, floaty leap that allowed her to clear Chiha, and Leith. "Woohoo." Her target was the girl rushing toward Jack. As she descendeded, she stuck her legs straight forward, hoping to land on Elly rear-first.


Chiha rolled her eyes at hearing Jack in the background She then looked towards the girl who was rushing jack... as much as she wanted her to knock out the buffoon she should probably use this moment to flank her as well. Glancing up as Aislyn jump...kinda...floated over them with an odd woohoo. However. this was a sore mistake, Leith was a bit stronger than she thought. Many guys she used that same technique on were out for the count with that hard hit to the chest. She was not prepared for him hooking her legs with his. falling on the flat of her back with a grunt. She was suddenly hit a few times. While it hurt it didn't hurt as bad because of her bodyarmor. But still she started to feel multiple peltings. Looking around and seeing hail falling all around her she quickly covered her face by wrapping her arms up and over her face. She had to knock him out. His quirk would turn off when he's unconscious. At least she hoped.

She needed to protect her head at the same time though. Looking at Leith beside her. She rolled to her stomach and on top of Leith and focused on her own quirk. her hair coming alive and curling up around her like live snakes. She formed a small dome over her head and hardened her hair, using it as a metal umbrella of sorts. Her face was slightly red at two things, the odd hair style it would look like. and the fact she was straddling Leith. But she pushed it away. knowing she was safe to knock him out but while protecting him as well from being hit in the face with his own quirk which could be far more dangerous than her fist. She aimed a quick punch at his nose.

Clara grunted as she laid there, feeling the bruising on her forehead and forearms from being pushed into her own shield. She looked as she heard a whoop to see Aislyn jumping towards her. She didn't know why she couldn't move out of the way, the girl was floating slow enough...but she found it kinda' odd the girl was so slow in air it confuseled her a bit. She was landed on and an audible 'OOF' could be heard from under the puffy costumed girl.

Groaning as she was embarrassed by her poor showing so far she pushed through her own pain as she got to her hands and knees. However a loud crack could be heard and her scream pierced the arena as a hailstone hit her arm. She quickly pulled the shield over her as she rolled over, luckily blocking more hailstones before they hit her. Her eyes squeezed shut as they watered up from the pain, biting her lip to hold back more screaming as she tried to focus on her quirk, molding the glass around her broken arm and fusing it to the glass on her stomach in a makeshift cast. All while hiding under her shield.

Jack struggled to stand, not just because of the slush or the tiredness, but the relentless hail storm. At least Aislyn was here to deal with the blue haired girl, and had further weakened Clara in the process. Not that he needed help, of course, or so he told himself.

Hunching as more hailstones battered him, he looked over at the sound of a snap and a scream. He grimaced. Nobody had been meant to get THAT badly hurt, but if the other team was incompetent enough to damage each other more than their opponents, they had only that carelessness to blame. "Some hero work, drizzle boy!" he called over his shoulder as he ran to escape the cloud's spreading radius. Focusing on the sting of his bruises to stay alert, he jumped onto a garage, then onto roof after higher roof. Once above Leith's cloud, he'd be able to assess the situation and act without hindrance.

Leith's stomach dropped. "Oh shit! Clara!" From his position on the ground, he hadn't seen the incident, but Jack's taunt made it clear it was his doing. Before he could prop himself up and check on her, the swordswoman lay across him, her hair writhing and forming a makeshift, metallic umbrella.

He blushed as she did, but tried to focus on stopping the hail. No good. The guilt at Clara's injury only hampered his control further, the storm growing wilder. Just as panic threatened to speed up the vicious cycle, the swordswoman's fist slammed into his face. While that alone would have been an unlikely one hit knockout, between the drowsy effect and the earlier hailstones to the head, dizziness overwhelmed him. His eyes watered, and his nose streamed with blood, but the pain dulled along with everything else.

"Thanks..." he managed to murmur before lapsing into unconsciousness. The cloud dispersed, the last of the hail clattering to the ground.

From his vantage point, Jack watched the wisps fade. Perfect. With Leith and Clara incapacitated, the blue haired opponent was the one to go after. An easy task, if not for a slight inconvenience. He glanced down at the surfaces he'd jumped across, now littered with slippery, melting ice shards. As if that didn't make a heroic re-entry risky enough, his legs buckled from sheer drowsiness, which took more of a hold with each passing second. He cringed. No stairwell up here, and he couldn't leap several storeys, especially not in this condition.

Backing away from the rooftop's edge in case he fell asleep there and then, he called down to his teammates. "It's ok! I've got thi..." He trailed off as he yawned. He scanned the area for alternate routes to leap or climb across, but it seemed even that was out of the question as exhaustion brought him to one knee.

As much as he hated to acknowledge it, maybe this hadn't been the best of ideas.
