First off, many thanks to those who reviewed this fic, I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the story picks up after the last chapter, where both protagonists are going to set foot at Hope's Peak to start their high school lives, but don't expect them to have a good start, as they are going to have a rough beginning ad they try to cope with their first week in class, so buckle up, read on and enjoy!

Ch. 4: Kibōgamine Gakuen de no Saisho no shū

Towards the end of the day, things went well at Hope's Peak, as classes went well and no incident has been recorded, all except for the reserve course building, as Natsumi Kuzuryu became the talk of the class, as nearly all the classmates are discussing about her, though not in a positive way, as Natsumi's bad attitude and mean streak has riled them as she bad mouth each of them to no end, though Hinata is spared as she did not notice him, and he can hear his classmates making comments about her and he can understand why.

"That Kuzuryu bitch..."

"Who dies she think she is...?"

"She's got the nerve..."

"I hate her..."

"I hate her even more..."

"She ought to know her place..."

"Makes me feel like I want to DO her..."

"She thinks pretty, but her attitude is UGLY..."

By then the bell rang and it was dismissal time, and the reserve course students picked up their bags and left the classroom, and Natsumi took hers and left the building, as she walked past her classmates without looking at them and her classmates can only glare at her as they did not like her attitude and wished that she be expelled from the academy seeing her as an eyesore but then one of her classmates told the others what he discovered, in which Natsumi is the daughter of the Kuzuryu Mafia Family, and they are rather startled, yet baffled, as to why she came to study at Hope's Peak.

Many somewhat coiled in surprise and others wondered why she came here, yet this did not seemed to deter them from the fact that they do not like her, and felt that as a gangster's daughter, it appeared natural that she looks down on her classmates and they wished that Natsumi gets expelled from Hope's Peak as they see her as an eyesore in the reserve course.

"She's the daughter of the Kuzuryu Crime family...?"

"No way..."

"That explains why she's like that..."

"A spoiled brat..."

"Hope she gets what's coming for her...

"I hope she gets expelled..."

"Yeah...she's an eyesore..."

"A bitch..."

Much later, the scene shifts at the school grounds where Natsumi is walking and she unknowingly dropped her purse, and before she could walk farther away, Naegi noticed it and picked the purse and called Natsumi, telling her that she dropped her purse, and when she turn around, she was rather surprised to see Naegi giving her the purse, and though she wanted to ignore him, she decided to at least thank him for that and thanked him even though she did not bother to look at him as she thinks he is plain and boring.

"Um...excuse me..."

"What?"

"You dropped this..."

"Hmph...thanks..."

"Um...you're welcome...(she looks pretty)"

"What was that?"

"Ah...nothing..."

"Huh?"

Naegi himself is a bit surprised to see her and he just nodded and smiled, and for the first time, Natsumi is taken aback, as she unknowingly took notice of him as he smiled at her and she felt that something is not right seeing that she noticed him after seeing him smiled, and she looked away because of her pride, and began to walk away, and Naegi blinked his eyes as he wondered what is going on, but decided to leave as well, heading towards another direction.

By then Natsumi stopped as she noticed something again and turn around, seeing Naegi walking away, and there she saw him wearing the uniform, and that is where she discovered that Naegi is a main course student, and she couldn't believe this, as she wondered how and why such a plain and boring boy ended up at the main course, and wondered what his talent is. She couldn't believe this is happening and decided to think of a way to have the academy notice her so that they would consider bringing her to the main course building sometime soon.

"That kid...how did he became a main course student...he looked plain and boring...I even thought of him as a reserve course student...! I won't stand for this...I got to think of a way to be noticed and get transferred to the main course...no matter what it takes...!"

-x-

The next day, the scene shifts at the main building, where the Class of 77th students are at a park, enjoying a peaceful time, and the scene zoomed towards a corner of a building where Fuyuhiko and Pekoyama are talking, in which they are discussing about Natsumi coming to the academy and ended up at the reserve course, and he is somewhat concerned that her attitude would get her into trouble which Pekoyama agreed, having seen what she can do verbally and physically and this made her concerned as well.

"Natsumi-sama is here as well...?"

"Yeah...and I'm not too thrilled about it myself..."

"..."

"She always drive me nuts...but her being here...who knows what she is going to pull...I have a bad feeling she'll get into the face of anyone she sees as an eyesore..."

"Fuyuhiko-sama..."

"What was dad thinking...?"

"Fuyuhiko-sama...want me to check on her and see what she is up to...?"

"Eh?"

Pekoyama offered that she would sneak into the reserve course building and see what Natsumi is up to, but Fuyuhiko advised her against it as he finds it troublesome and that Pekoyama might get into trouble and told her not to do that and said that he will talk to his sister tonight once she is home, but then Mioda came and interjected, sensing something out of the blue, which caused Fuyuhiko and Pekoyama to back away from one another, and Mioda began teasing Fuyuhiko, which he defended himself from Mioda's teasing.

"Ooohhhh..."

"W-what...?:

"It's rare to see you two talking together..."

"W-what are you...?"

"The gangster is in love..."

"Knock it off, you guitar freak!"

"Hee-hee-hee...Fuyu loves Peko..."

"Buzz off, you heavy metal hentai...!"

Both Fuyuhiko and Pekoyama walked away, as if nothing happened, and Mioda blinked her eyes as she is sure there was something going on between those two but she shrugged her shoulders as she left as well, joining the others as the group enjoyed a leisure time with one another.

The scene shifts at the reserve course building, where the scene zoomed towards the classroom where Hinata is eating a croquette, while at the same time gazing at the main course building, as he is aspiring that he would one day become a student there, but his musing was interrupted when Natsumi approached him, noticing him gazing at the other building, and guessed that he too has the same desire as hers.

"Hey..."

"..."

"Hey...I'm talking to you..."

"Huh?

"Why are you staring at the main course building? Ah...so you want to be transferred there as well...?"

"Yeah? So what? Wait...is it true? You're the daughter of a crime gang that rumors are saying...?"

"Yeah...the Kuzuryu Crime gang network..."

"No way..."

Hinata was taken aback when told that she is the daughter of the Kuzuryu Mafia Family, and said that she too aspires to get into the main building, and said she would do whatever it takes to get there, and even said that she is willing to face anyone getting in her way, and that's where a classmate came and confronted Natsumi, glaring at her while Natsumi smirked deviously as she saw a familiar face and realized that the person in front of her is someone she knew from middle school.

"Hey!"

"Ah...it is you...long time no see, Sato..."

"You better not be doing anything stupid..."

"Hmm...?"

"Don't even try to fool me!"

"Got a problem...?"

"I swear...if you do something foolish...!"

"Buzz off, you green-haired, green-minded whore..."

The classmate standing in front of Natsumi is a girl, identified only as Sato, and she warned Natsumi not to do anything foolish, but Natsumi just grinned and said she will one day move into the main course building and will do anything to get there even if she has to fight her way to get it, and Sato became incensed at Natsumi's attitude, causing the classroom to get loud, and Hinata can feel the tension, but none of the classmates bothered to do anything about it as they are somewhat selfish and has no sense of friendship with one another, only caring about moving into the main course building and yet commented about the two girls quarreling.

"What is with those two?"

"Do they know each other?"

"Who cares?"

"Not our problem...?"

"Let them be..."

"I hope they get expelled..."

"A pair of bitches..."

"Pretty bitches..."

By then Koizumi arrived and pacifies Sato while urging Natsumi to stop it, telling her that bullying others won't earn her any points to get to the main course, and when Sato threatens to tell her brother what she is doing, Natsumi got agitated and is ready to punch Sato, but Koizumi stepped in between and pleaded at the two girls to stop, and Natsumi reluctantly stopped her actions and left, and Sato was relieved that Natsumi left, and she and Koizumi left the classroom to have lunch together.

Two days later, the scene shifts at a park inside Hope's Peak as Natsumi is taking a walk as she is bored at her current school life for now due to having no friends which she felt that she doesn't need onr, and there she came across a bench where she was surprised to see Hinata hanging out with Nanami, the two playing a PS VITA game of WCW-NWO REVENGE, and Natsumi is taken aback to see her classmate hanging out with a main course student, and there Hinata saw a surprised Natsumi and asks her if there is something wrong.

"Kuzuryu-san..."

"Hey..."

"What?"

"What is this?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why are you hanging out with a main course student?"

"Well...Nanami and I are friends..."

"Bullshit!"

Hinata is taken aback at Natsumi's queries about why a reserve course student is hanging out with a main course student, which Hinata tries to come up with a rebuttal, but Nanami responded, telling her that she does not mind hanging out with a reserve course student as she believes that talent is irrelevant as long as she makes friends and a lasting memory, which made Natsumi feel agitated, as she firmly believes that a reserve course student would never have friends if he/she is not in the main course, and by then Naegi passed by and saw the scene, wondering if he came at a wrong place at the wrong time, and there Natsumi saw Naegi, and she glared at him before running off, and Naegi wondered what is going on here.

Both Hinata and Nanami watched the scene before they glanced at each other and then sighed as they resume playing the PS VITA game, and Naegi just blinked his eyes as he wondered if his luck caused him to witness such a tension-induced scene. He then glanced at the two and noticed the uniforms they are wearing and Naegi asks Hinata what section is he in, and asks why his uniform is different.

"Um..."

"Yes...?"

"Er...what section are you in...? I never seen such a uniform before..."

"Sorry...I'm from the reserve course..."

"Reserve course...?"

"Yeah...wait...are you here to mock me...?"

"Um, no...I have no intention of doing that..."

"..."

Hinata told Naegi that he is from the reserve course and asks if he is here to mock him, which Naegi denies and said he did not know that things like reserve course exists at the academy, which Hinata glanced at Naegi, quite surprised to hear that he did not know anything about the reserve course, and Nanami interjected that Hinata should not be concerned as she believes that there is no barrier between the main and reserve courses, which Naegi agreed, and this made Hinata feel at ease...for now, and Naegi decided to take his leave, seeing that things might go out if hand if he remains here.

At another side of the park within Hope's Peak, you can see Natsumi sitting on a bench, glaring at the ground, and tears slowly fell from her eyes, frustrated as her impatience of wishing to get into the main course, while at the same time unable to accept the fact that a main course student like Nanami being friends with a "lowly" reserve course student like Hinata, and she felt alone and left out, and by then someone approached her and she looked, wiping the tears off her face and saw an elderly man standing before her.

"Hello there..."

"..."

"May I sit next to you...?"

"Whatever...do what you want..."

"Thank you..."

"..."

"Can I have a word with you...?"

"..."

The man standing before her was Kazuo Tengan, and he happened to saw the scene earlier, and after hearing the brief talk, he decided to offer her some advice as he saw that Natsumi herself has the same insecurity like Hinata, and asks if he could sit beside her, and though she wanted to respond rudely to him, she was unable to since she still, to a degree, respect elders, and told him to do what he pleases, not looking at him.

"Are you okay...?"

"..."

"Perhaps I can help you..."

"I don't need to..."

"I believe you're in need of some advice..."

"..."

"This won't take a few minutes..."

"..."
