Before I get starting, I want to ask: When a child develops a Quirk... Is there a chance that having a Quirk, could change their blood-type?
Since there are those who go through mutational Quirk development, is it possible that there are those who end up having their blood-type altered? I mean, some change appearances, others may grow or shrink, have extra appendages or some form of growth that isn't part of a human. If a person's Quirk can change and/or alter human genetics, wouldn't it be possible for their blood to change, as well?
If so, how do you guys think causes it to happen? If not… Oh well. Since this is Fanfiction, we can put in whatever we want to happen in our stories of the show... So long we don't take the credit of the show's making or disrespect the show in any way.
Now that's been taken cared of, back to the story!
The Next Day...
"Are you sure you're feeling okay, Ra Ra?" Joshua asked his sister, who finished brushing her teeth and heading for the door. "If you're not, you can stay home. The teachers wouldn't mind."
Sierra rolled her eyes, getting her shoes on without facing her oldest brother.
"I'm perfectly fine, Big Brother." She answered. "I need to get going now, or I'm going to be late."
Josh gave her deadpan look.
"Your classes don't start until another forty-five minutes. What's the hurry?"
She let out a tiring sigh.
"There are more news reporter outside the school than there were on the first day, trying to interview us about All Might being our teacher. Though, I would more say they're trying to harass adolescence and get whatever scoop they can get about him. If they continue to linger on, they'll gonna interfere with our education and soon, they'll prevent us from going home."
Hearing the problem going on at the school made the adult to, also, let out an irritated groan.
"Should've known that was going to happen. But couldn't you simply avoid them, by flying over the gate?"
She stared at him, nodding her head.
"That, I plan to do. Though, I'm not sure if I'll be able to do so, without triggering the school's defense system. It may not be activated when it detects me, since it'll only let students and authorized personal that are permitted to enter. If flying over the entrance does trigger the defense to activate, I would still have to deal with fewer reporters than they'll probably be before classes start."
The black-haired adult let out a frustrating sigh, running a hand through his mullet.
"Which means neither me, Shikaka or Moo will be able to take you to school, or pick you up."
She nodded her head, feeling sad for her siblings for not being able to take her to school without the media getting into their lives and demanding to talk to their sister about All Might being her teacher.
"I'm afraid so," she confirmed. "I should be glad to still be able to fly there, without any transportation."
"I mean, yeah, you still have your wings." Josh agreed, though didn't seemed satisfied to solving her transportation. "But, what would happen if you broke one or both of your arms and there are still reporters waiting outside the school to hear about All Might? We all know how crowds makes you feel, Ra Ra, especially since how they talked about you when-"
"I know, Josh... I don't want to be reminded about that. And no, I don't want to get a car and don't plan on getting one, anytime soon. I'd rather be taking the train riding in those contraptions, anytime."
The soon-to-be twenty-one year-old sibling chuckled to his sister's refusal on wanting a car.
"At least you're willing to go to a public transportation," he commented. "In fact, why don't you start doing that, by going to the train station with Izuku?"
An immediate nervous trickle ran down her back.
"Uh..." she may have said that she would rather ride the train, but that doesn't mean she wants to immediately start doing so. "I would .. But, uh... Like I said, I'm running rate! Maybe another time! Gotta go!"
As quick as a whip, she gave her big brother a quick kiss on cheek and ran out the door, morphing into her eagle form and taking off to the sky as quick as her wings can carry her.
Josh laughed softly to himself, lightly laying a hand on the cheek how sweet, baby sister gave him before taking off in a hurry.
"She'll get there," he told himself. "In time, she'll be ready."
At U.A. High…
"Please, tell us what it's like having All Might as your teacher!" A news reporter woman demanded to some U.A. Students, who all looked very uncomfortable and nervous at the crowd trying to stop them from getting to the school.
Over the crowd in the air, in her eagle-form, Sierra glared down at the adults.
'Those idiots aren't going to get anything, if they're going to assume every student that goes to U.A. are students of All Might.'
"Sorry, Ma'am, but we don't know! We're not in Class 1-A! We're from Class 1-B, students of the Pro Hero: Vlad King!" A girl with blonde-hair and goat-like horns sticking up from both side of her head replied, flashing clear fear at the adults like a deer looking at headlights.
Beside her, a boy with wild purple-hair stepped up and, seeing his lips move but unable to hear from the wind roaring in her ears, he pointed a finger at the parked vans... And just like that, the media lowered their cameras and microphones and went into their vans, driving away from the school.
...Sierra was stunned at what she just saw, and has a feeling that she figured out what that student's Quirk is, eyeing the three classmates heading on to the building.
'Must be some Brainwashing Quirk. Either that, or some sort of Hypnotist. Though, he didn't immediately used it until after the media finished talking to him. Making his Quirk more evidence to being a Brainwashing Quirk. Though, I wonder how long it'll last before they come to their senses and returns to the school to harass more students about All Might.'
Not wanting to pry and waste this opportunity to get to school without confronting the media, she dived down to the ground and morphed back into her human-self, putting her backpack onto her back and running through the gates.
...Then, as soon as she ran through the entrance, a sudden chill ran down her spine. And when she gets that feeling, that tells her something isn't right… That a threat is nearby.
Immediately, by sheer instinct, she morphed into a white-tiger and, running back to the entrance, let out a very loud roar.
Her green-eyes scanned the area, lips pulled apart to flash her long fangs, snarling and hissing at whoever and whatever that could be lurking around to making her feel threatened without warning.
"Whoever's out there, leave!" She yelled, her roar overpowering her speech. "I know you're out there! I may not know who or what you are, but you are a threat and you must leave this area!"
Her instinct told her something was hiding in the shadows across the street, in-between the two buildings across the school... Staring right at her, a silhouette of a person wearing black enters her sight... The very being that's setting off the warning bells in her head.
And like any animal who feels threatened, she has the urge to run and attack the threat... Yet, she cannot.
She's a student, a child that's learning to become a hero. As such, she can't go off fighting bad guys that she doesn't know how dangerous they are. Plus, if the being is just a civilian and she wounds them, she'll end up losing her chance at getting her hero license, getting expelled from U.A., and even get sent to a Juvenile Detention Center.
Besides, any threat that comes to the school must be informed to the teachers of U.A., the actual Pro Heroes who are up for the task. But, because she can't be certain if this could be a villain or some random stalker, she has to keep this to herself until she talks to Aizawa, alone.
Letting out a final warning roar, she snatched her backpack that fell off her back during her transformation and head for the building, morphing back into her human-self... The cold feeling never leaving her, even as she entered the building and head for class.
Eight Forty-Five, in Class 1-A...
"That was decent training, you guys." Aizawa commented to his students, though didn't appear that thrilled or impressed.
Nevertheless, any praises they get from a Pro Hero is just as good as any praise as if being praised from their parents or somebody they idolized.
"I went over the video fees on each of your performances, and found a few to being very interesting." He continued, before turning to Bakugo Katsuki. "Bakugo, your performance was very surprising but you clearly lack to caring the wellbeing of everything except for your own personal vendetta. You need to try and keep your anger in check, or there will be consequences. So, don't go pouting when you don't succeed."
The whitish-blonde teen sneered, looking away to avoid yelling at his teacher for getting on him about his anger.
"Whatever," he grumbled.
"Midoriya -Izuku sat up a bit, nervous on what his teacher is going to get on him about yesterday's training.- You were able to win the challenge, but you were only able to so by damaging your body, again. You need to work harder on controlling your Quirk, because that excuse isn't going to be enough and is really getting old. Your Quirk can't be useful if you keep breaking your body... However, it will surely become something that can be very useful once you're able to get a hand on it. So, make sure you get to it."
Izuku, perking up from the compliment his teacher gave him, gave Aizawa a confident and serious look.
"I will," he promised.
Nodding in approval, the thirty-one year-old looked at the back of the room, staring at the quiet fourteen year-old girl.
"Arashi. -Lightly gasping, Sierra sat up a bit straighter, scared that she'll end up getting criticized for something she doesn't know she did wrong.- Your performance was very intriguing. Not only were you the only one who had to work alone, but you managed to pass, while All Might played the villain. Even though he was clearly holding back, you still won and proved to be quite clever on bringing him down. That's something we need here at U.A., so keep it up."
Blushing from the praise she was getting, along with feeling the eyes of her students staring at her, she ducked her head.
"Th... Thank you, Sir." She replied softly, almost a whisper but wanting her sensei to hear how much she appreciated his words.
"Before you go to lunch, Arashi, I need to talk to you for a few minutes."
Her joy was sapped away and replaced with fear, thinking he's going to yell at her in private.
'Whatever the reason, it must be very serious if he doesn't want the others to be here.' Again, she nodded her head.
"Now, before we get started with class, it's time to get down to business. This will decide your future."
Everyone is now on edge, wondering what they need to do, if it involves their future. Some feared they're going to do another test, which would probably be harder than the last one. Others worried that they'll be taking a Pop Quiz, and are feeling not prepare for whatever the test they'll be answering to.
...What he said what they'll be doing right now, made them all relieved... And soon, very hyped up.
"You'll be electing a Class Representative."
Almost instantly, many of the students were already eager and demanding to be the Class Representative. Some stood out of their chairs. Some screamed, wanting their voices to be heard over the others.
In the back, Sierra stayed quiet, covering her ears from everybody's yelling. She has no thrill or any desire to becoming Class Representative at all. In some way, it probably will make the person be noticed by the agency or the Pro Heroes of Society. However, the true purpose for Class Rep, is to lead their fellow classmates and become an example.
And to her, she knows that she's not up for the task.
'I don't have that much confidence in myself, so how will I be able to lead if I can't be certain on my decision making. Plus, I'm more of a follower, maybe even an Mu*, than an Alpha that can lead others. I just hope in due time, I'll gained some confidence in my abilities. But for this, I don't want to be a part of.'
"All of you, be silent!" Iida's voice roared out, quieting the whole classroom and raising his right-hand in the air. "You need to be serious about this: The Class Representative is a role to lead others. It's not a simple task anybody can do. The Class Representative must have the trust of every student, if they are to lead the classroom."
While figuring that he, most likely, wants to be Class Rep, Sierra is one hundred percent certain that he would fit the role, very well. If he can make everybody shut up and voice out his opinion, without anybody interrupting, then he can become their Class Rep.
"Therefore, it's very logic that the best solution to picking the Class Representative, is to hold an election. That is the only way we'll be able to pick a leader."
Everyone can clearly tell he wants to be the leader, and were wondering if his suggestion is the best option.
"You sure there isn't an easier way to do this?" Kaminari asked, thinking that she should draw straws or pick a number.
"And how will we be able to trust somebody to lead us?" Asui added in, wondering if it would help them choose. "We only been a class for two days, and we don't know much about each other. How can we tell who we can trust?"
"Yeah, and even if we did hold an election, everybody will just vote for themselves." Kirishima pointed out, which made Asui's opinion a strong case against voting.
Luckily, Iida already have that figured out.
"Perhaps, but the one person who receives more than one vote will surely be the most suitable for the job -He turned to Aizawa, who already stuffed himself in his sleeping bag, wanting to go to sleep.- Is that all right, Sir?"
"Do whatever you want." Aizawa replied, not really caring about the situation. "Just make a decision, before I wake up." And just like that, let himself fall backwards, appearing to already be sleeping.
Sierra got worried when he hit the ground and, not bothering to take notice what her actions will attract, she pulled out a sweater she keeps in her backpack, just in case she gets too cold, and went over to her teacher. There, she folded her clothing until it closely resembles a pillow and, after raising her teacher's head slightly, set the sweater underneath him.
"You shouldn't have let yourself fall like that, Mr. Aizawa." She muttered, slightly glaring down at the sleeping teacher. "You could've given yourself a concussion, if you'd hit your head against your desk or landed harshly against the ground."
The students all stared at her action, many of them touched that she would be concerned over their teacher like that and is willing to sacrifice something of hers to make sure he's comfortable. Especially Izuku, who smiled brightly at her kind-hearted nature.
'Always making sure others are okay, even if they may not want it. That's my god-sister, all right.'
To the fifteen year-old, he thought about electing her to being Class Rep, but already knew she wouldn't want it and would probably get freaked out by the sudden responsibility if she gets more than one vote.
It was decided that the best way to figure out who to vote for, was amongst themselves and talking it over with others.
Some already voted. No doubt, they are the ones to be voting for themselves, seeing no reason to talk it over or to consider a better candidate, other than themselves.
A few students have formed their own group to talk amongst each other. That group composed of Asui, Mina and Hagakure talking with each other. They wanted to include Sierra into their group, but saw her talking with Izuku and decided against it. Though, in the end, they already decided who to pick.
With Sierra and Izuku, they tried to figure out who was the best to be Class Representative.
"Who do you think we should have for Class Rep, Sis?" Izuku asked, both choosing to sit at the back and finding comfort in each other's company.
The fourteen year-old smiled at her god-brother.
"I think Iida should be our leader." She answered. "He's serious and follows the rule to a T, and that's exactly what we need. A serious leader, who will keep us in check and make sure we don't step out of line."
Izuku took her words to heart, finding them very well pointed out and logical that she's completely confident who she wants to follow... And now, he's certain on who he is going to vote for.
"You got a very good point and after telling us how serious being Class Rep is, even giving us a suggestion on how to decide, I think he should lead us, too. Thanks, Sis."
In the end, when all the votes had been tallied, some were stunned by the results on who won... None were more shocked than Bakugo, Sierra and Izuku.
At the top of the list, with four votes, is Izuku's name. Underneath him, with three votes, Sierra's name stood out. Both Momo and Iida had two votes, with the rest of the students having dashes, being the ones who voted themselves or didn't receive any votes at all.
Neither of the god-siblings were expecting this... And both are scared to the bone.
"ALL RIGHT, YOU USELSS MAGGOTS, WHO ARE THEY?!" Bakugo yelled, standing out of his seat. "WHO VOTED FOR SHITTY DEKU AND DISGUSTING HALF-BLOOD?!"
"What? You really expected us to vote for you?" Sero asked from behind, giving him a glare on what he called Izuku and Sierra. "You've got to be crazy."
"Seriously, Man. You have a serious temper and yesterday, you nearly killed Midoriya. And after hearing what you called him and Sierra, no one in their right minds would vote for you." Kirishima added in.
Not wanting to accept defeat, Bakugo demanded a recount and, after the fourth time on tallying up the votes and names when the first one wasn't enough, there was no mistake that Izuku is elected as Class Rep. And since there has to be a second in command, or Deputy, Sierra Arashi got the position.
Both ended up quivering, as they stood before their fellow classmates.
While they weren't confident in the position they're in, the other students-... Well, most of the other students, appeared pleased by the results.
"This can actually work, Ribbit." Asui commented.
"I feel the same way." Kirishima replied. "I can definitely get by with Midoriya leading us."
"Yeah, and Arashi really was amazing on taking down All Might during yesterday's training. She must be really smart." Kaminari added in.
Looking out at the entire room, Sierra saw Bakugo still fuming that he didn't win. Momo, Todoroki and Tokoyami didn't show much emotions, though Momo did seem a bit disappointed to not winning. As for Iida, he's hunched over his desk... Appearing defeated that he only got two votes, and lost against his own suggestion on picking a leader.
Then, the bell ring, alerting everyone that it's time for lunch. As teenagers, they hurried out the door to go grab their food.
...The only ones left in the classroom is Shota Aizawa, and Sierra Arashi. Knowing he doesn't want to waste time and will demand she come over to him, the girl went to his desk.
'Just get it over with,' she thought to herself. 'No matter how serious the punishment will be, just get it over with.' "Y... You wanted to see me, Sir?"
After waking up from the results of the election, Aizawa remained on the ground. Now, with everybody gone, he climbed out of his sleeping bag and stood before the scared fourteen year-old.
With his right-hand, he pulled open a drawer and, not having to look what he pulls out, pulled out a small-white bottle.
She instantly recognized the bottle he pulled out.
"You left this on my desk," he pointed out. "I tried it out... It actually helped. They worked better than the usual eye drops I would use... Why did you get this for me?"
Realizing that she isn't in trouble, Sierra calmed down and answered with a calm, collective voice.
"During the Assessment Test, I noticed the eye drops you used are cheap and aren't design to help with dry eyes as much as it should. And I know that, because my older-brother used to use the same brand, until his eye doctor informed him that the brand wasn't helping and was putting more strain into his vision. So, I thought, maybe, if you had a different brand that could not only help you with your dry eyes, but can also let you use your Quirk longer without having to use the drops as often and help improve your vision while protecting your sight from straining them, it would be a better substitute for you to use for your new choice of eye drops."
The Pro Hero lifted the eye drop before his face, reading the label at a farther distant he wasn't to do in such a long time, before turning to the girl.
"...Think you can tell me where you got this at?" He asked, earning a light gasp from the girl before she nodded her head.
"Of course."
Running back to her desk to get a piece of paper and pencil, she wrote down the address, directions to take from U.A. to the building and what exact brand to get from the store.
Smiling up at her teacher, she handed him the note.
"I'm happy to hear that it's working," she said. "They may be a bit costly, but they're really worth every Yen. My own brother is hoping to finding a solution through the formula to help some of his patients that have vision problems, through an associate of his at the hospital he works in. If they find something, then maybe there's a chance that they can help you with your eye problem."
Aizawa simply eyed the girl, staring down at the note held in her hand, before taking the small-folded piece of paper.
"Maybe..." He said, stuffing the note into his pocket. "There's something else that I need to discuss with you. -She gave him a confused look, wondering what else they needed to say.- This morning, Mr. Principal saw you turning into a tiger and roaring outside the school's gate."
Her eyes widened to his words, feeling embarrassed that she got caught and fearing he was going to tell her that she's getting kicked out of school.
He saw the scared look on her face and immediately, he held up a hand.
"Calm down. You're not in trouble in any way, I assure you; you weren't attacking anybody and Mr. Principal clearly saw how on edge you were from how you were roaring out. -He leaned forward a bit, staring into her greenish-grey eyes... Eyes that made him think of the person he cared about.- What was out there, that made you turn and get all worked up?"
The two eyes stared into the other's eyes, with Sierra's eyes making the teacher feel as if she's searching his very soul. And while it should make him feel violated... With her, he felt truly at peace and no negative thoughts of her judging him.
Eventually, she answered.
"I felt a threat... I think, there was a villain, watching us from across the street."
Aizawa's eyes narrowed.
A Minute Later, at the Cafeteria...
Her stomach growled when her nose picked up the scent of food. She grumbled at her stomach's demand for food, when she isn't in the mood for eating.
'Quit growling,' she yelled in her head. 'You've gone without food, multiple times. You even went without food for almost a week! Even though it was because I was sick, and kept on throwing up. Still, you would think you would get use to it. Besides, how can I think about food when I've been made a Beta of the class?! Be glad that Moo makes me take a canteen of those protein shakes.'
All around her, many students are enjoying their made that's been made by the Food Hero: Lunch Rush. While food isn't really considered a superpower, he's been known for making one of the best meals in Japan. One of his best accomplishes, was making a meal fit for a king to twenty Homeless Shelters in under four hours. He may not be a great hero in crime fighting, but he's definitely a hero to fight against World Hunger.
"Sis, over here!" Hearing Izuku's voice over the multiple chatter of other students, it wasn't too much difficulty on locating her god-brother; the scent of cinnamon and pine cones can easily be detected through the crowd as well, coming from the middle-center tables.
Seeing a hand wave over, Sierra immediately went over to Izuku's table, where Iida and Ochako sat with her god-brother and enjoying their meal.
"We saved you a seat" Ochako reported, pointing at a seat next to Izuku and across from her.
Smiling in gratitude, she took her spot. Almost immediately, the three students realized that she didn't bring a tray of food with her. Izuku knew what that meant.
"Sis, where's your lunch?" He asked, giving her a slight glare.
She gave him one of her casual smiles... Which could very well be compared to having a wolfish-smile.
"Didn't bring it." She answered, her stomach growling to confirm her lack of food.
Iida and Uraraka looked very concerned.
"Did you forget to bring it?" Ochako asked, very worried when the slightly shorter-girl shrugged.
"Sort of, but not really." Sierra admitted, earning more concern looks from her two new friends. "My older-brother had to leave early for work, so he didn't make me one. Not only that, but I was more worried about getting into the school while the paparazzi continues to wait outside the school's gate. I'm still not sure if flying over the gate would activate it's defenses or not, so I chose to leave early to get to school on time."
Izuku wasn't buying her excuse.
"You're skipping, again." He accused, earning another shrug from the girl. "If you left early, that means you didn't eat breakfast-"
"Actually, Josh made me bacon and eggs this morning. And you know I can't turn down bacon, even if I'm not a big breakfast person."
He knew she isn't lying, so his gaze soften a bit.
"Still, Sis, you need to try and eat more. I get how you get overwhelmed by other people's emotions and negative senses, but you need to make more of an effort to keep your strength up."
Iida nodded his head.
"Midoriya is correct, Sierra." He backed up the green-haired teen. "Intentional or not, skipping meals will weaken your body, which includes your immune systems and the proper development to keep your mind and body strong."
Sierra sighed tiredly, having to be given the same speech every time somebody tries to talk her into eating.
"I know, Iida. -Pulling out a black-container that she kept hidden beside her leg, she opened the cap and filled the cap up with white-liquid.- I've been trying to get past it for years, and they always end up with me heading for the bathroom and hacking out the food, because on how upset my stomach is from my empathic-like abilities."
Izuku grimaced at the liquid his god-sister's forcing herself to drink.
"Still stuck on those shakes, huh?" He asked, earning a nod from the girl.
Ochako gave her a sad look.
"Is that why you're so skinny?"
"Unfortunately." She answered, after drinking her first fill of her brother's protein shake and pouring out another cup for her to ingest. "I assure you guys, I'm not purposely trying to starve myself to stay slim; many of my animal forms I turn into tend to have more muscles and fat than my body does, and the condition of my own body can turn my animal forms against me. Too much muscle mass can be too taxing for me to comprehend, while too much fat could damage my heart and effect my body function. So, while I still plan to try and put on some weight and work on building my body up, I need to make sure I stay light and nimble."
"Yeah, but you're clearly anemic and the skinner you get, the weaker your animal form may end up becoming." Izuku replied, pulling his tray to sat in-between them and pouring half of his rice onto the tray, handing her an extra pair of chopsticks. "Eat. You can't keep relying on those chalky protein drinks, as substitutes for food. I don't even know how you can stomach them; it's like trying to ingest mud, from how thick it is."
Sierra gave him a third shrug.
"Practice, training and knowing something far worse if I try to avoid drinking it." Sierra answered, slowly eating the white rice. "Plus, it's vanilla flavor. Like bacon, I can't turn that down, so long it isn't mixed with other flavors."
Izuku rolled his eyes, but didn't say anything and after gaining a glance from the fifteen year-old, the other two didn't ask anymore questions to the youngest in their group.
The four friends went to enjoying their lunch together, with Izuku, Ochako and Iida looking over to Sierra to make sure she eats whatever they leave out for her. their stares made her feel a bit uncomfortable, as if she's their prey and are buying their time to pounce. But at the same time, she felt safe being within their group and in a room full of other students that can attack her at any moment, despite knowing very well that they none would be stupid enough to hurt another fellow student, she will be more than ready to fight alongside with them and to put her trust into them to watch over her as she will for them.
"Oh, I've been meaning to ask. What was it that Mr. Aizawa wanted to see you about, Sis?" Izuku asked, smiling when he saw her finishing her second portion on rice without too much complication.
When he saw her slightly tensing up a bit, he knew that it must be something serious. Though, when a light-blush came over her face, he started second-guessing on figuring out what happened.
"...He, uh-... He wanted to know where I got the eye drops I bought for him are from." Her answer surprised the three students, all clearly confused on what she just said.
"You bought him eye drops?" Iida asked, hoping he didn't mishear what she just said.
"I did, two days ago." She answered. "It was when I went home, instead of taking the train with you guys. Remember? -The three nodded their heads, remembering when she turned into one of her bird-forms and took off into the air.- I was heading home, when I saw the store my older-brother would go to when his eyes would bother him and to get me more protein shake mix. It was then that I remembered seeing the eye drops our teachers would use being the same drops my brother would take, which aren't very well and not that very helpful to keep moisturized. So, I thought I would get him a different brand that my brother uses and hope they have a more positive result than the brand he's using."
"And from what you just told us about him wanting to know where you got them, I assume the new brand must've proved to being more effective." Iida conducted.
Sierra nodded, her blush going away and no longer feeling embarrassed.
"He told me that they work better than the brand he got, and asked if I could tell him where I got it from. It's the store near Mayu Street and Malibu Boulevard."
Izuku immediately recognized the store.
"You mean that small medical shop Jeremy would go to for those eye drops he needs to apply, after work?" He asked, his eyes widening when his god-sister nodded her head. "Sis, those eye drops are fifty thousands Yen!"
Startled from the news, Uraraka chocked on the rice she was eaten and Tenya's glasses almost fell off his face.
"They're that much?!" Ochako screamed, earning gazes from other students sitting next and across the hall of their table. "How were you able to be able to afford that?"
"Uh, I save on my money. Doing chores, recycling, birthday and/or Christmas money. That's how." Sierra answered a bit cautiously, not seeming to understand why they were staring at her as if she just grown a second head. "Is there something wrong?"
Izuku shook his head to her question, patting her on the shoulder and smiling brightly at her.
"No, Sis, there's nothing wrong." He reassured. "You're just being yourself, and that is what everyone needs to see and do, instead of blowing off their money."
"I agree with Midoriya, Sierra." Iida replied, holding out his right-hand and waving it with pride. "You show to have much more maturity and selflessness to save your own money and buy something for somebody else's needs, while most would consider spending it all away and on themselves. and to buy something for our teacher, to help him with his dry eye situation, proves how kind and considerate you are for others."
"Yeah, that's really cool on how you're able to save up your money. Though, wasn't it hard to not spend it on clothes or makeup, or at least something that you want?"
Sierra smiled at her two friends.
"Honestly, I never really cared much for clothes, makeup, or anything else, really. Sometimes, I would buy a game or a movie or two, but only when I'm certain that I won't overspend it and I prefer to get the used versions instead of the new ones." She explained, which was stunning for Ochako to hear somebody isn't interested into what most girls would rather do with their money. "Besides, my sister would try to take me out shopping with her and find clothes that I would like or not, even when I have no need for new clothing when I still have clothes that still fits me."
"Barely!" Izuku laughed, gaining a glare from his god-sister. "You still have clothes when you were in fifth grade and they're all baggy now, considering you lost more weight for them to properly fit."
He earned a punch in the shoulder from the younger-girl, which didn't do much damage at all, both because of the muscles he built up and her skinny form not allowing her to use too much of her strength into the attack.
"At least I don't bawl my eyes out, that they can gush out like water hose!" She countered, earning herself a headlock and a noogie from Izuku, laughing alongside her god-brother and two friends.
...Then, without warning, an alarm went off in the cafeteria and, to Sierra's sharp hearing, echoing throughout the whole school.
WARNING: LEVEL THREE SECURITY BREAK! ALL STUDENTS, PLEASE EVACUATE IN AN ORDERLY FASHION!
Many students have one thought going on in their heads… PANIC, AND RUN LIKE HELL!
"What's going on?! What's a level three security break?!" Iida asked a three year student to his right, who looked very scared and jumping out of his seat to head for the exit.
"It means that somebody got passed the school's security barrier! I never encountered anything like this, in my entire time at U.A.! We need to go!" The student finished explaining and took off running with the rest of the panicking students.
The four students look to one another, all wondering what got past the school's security?
Clearly, the students didn't listen when the computer told them to evacuate in an 'orderly fashion', as they all ended up crowding each other in the hallway for the exits and ending up shoving against one another. They were all at a standstill, which made the situation worse and the students to panic even more to get out of the building.
Izuku and his group were only able to get through the hallway from the cafeteria and reach halfway to the exit, before the standstill prevented them from going any further and are in the process on trying to fight off against other students shoving them in all directions.
"Ow! This is getting really out of hand!" Ochako yelled, having to raise her voice with the other students' screams and yells.
"Should have known this is what their reactions will be from an emergency evacuation protocol." Iida replied, berating himself that he didn't think of the possibility on how to deal with a situation if their school were to be under siege.
"Sierra, where are you?!" Izuku called out, unable to see the small-girl through the crowd of panicking students.
Behind the group, Sierra struggled to keep up with her friends, while trying to stay calm and not freak out that would cause her to transform into an animal and make the students even more hysterical.
"Izu!" She yelled, pushing against a second year student and reaching out for her god-brother.
The green-haired teen made a desperate attempt to grab for her hand, only to be pushed aside by a white-haired student with pointy-ears and lost further within the crowd.
"Deku!"
"Midoriya!"
Hearing the cries of Ochako and Tenya, Sierra continued to push forward. While fighting through the distraught crowd, she caught something outside the window to her right. Looking closer, she was stunned by what she saw and turned to the older-teens.
"Iida! Outside!" She called out, getting the older-teen to push through two students to get near the window and immediately saw what the younger-girl sees: It's the media, standing in front of the entrance of the school, where Aizawa and Yamada Hizashi, AKA Present Mic, stood in front of.
"How on earth were they able to get through the school's security barrier?" Iida wondered, fighting against a first year student with wood-like skin to stay in place before making an attempt to call out to the students. "Everyone, there's no need to pa- Agh!"
A few students shoved him against the glass, cutting him off. Clearly, nobody can hear him.
"Iida!" Sierra yelled, somehow able to get through and stand beside him. Her eyes clearly flashed how anxious she's getting and struggling to not lose it, as she grabbed for his right-wrist. Her trembling didn't go unnoticeable to the fifteen year-old. "We need to get everybody's attention, in order to get them to stop and listen!"
"I know, but how?" Iida replied, wrapping an arm around the small-girl to prevent the two from splitting up.
"Iida! Sierra!" Ochako's voice came from in front of them, seeing the poor girl being pulled further into the mob.
"Ochako!" Iida yelled, struggling to have him and Sierra to catch up to their friend.
Each time the fourteen year-old starts to get pulled away from him, Tenya pulls her back against him, shielding her with his own body if somebody were to ram her from behind or next to her.
He realized she was starting to hyperventilate, the pupils in her eyes slowly turning into slits... She was starting to lose control and nearing to the point on transforming.
'If she transforms, it'll make the situation much worse!' Iida thought hard on what he should do, trying to come up with a quick answer to stop this madness. 'Think, Tenya! What would Midoriya do...? What would my brother do?'
"Guys! Help!"
Watching Uraraka stretching her hand out for her two friends, it sparked a memory to the older-teen's mind... He immediately had an idea. He turned to the girl he held protectively in his hold.
"Sierra, turn into the biggest bird you can be and take to the air!" He ordered, surprising the frightened girl to his suggestion, before nodding her head and doing what she's been told.
In a large crowd that threatens to trample her or force her to be trapped inside, she couldn't have plenty of time to think about which bird to be. Luckily, there aren't many large birds that can stand to being over three feet tall and with a small-list, there was one bird that came to her head that can be classified to being one of the biggest.
She turned into a Eurasian black vulture. She tried spreading her wings and taking off to the sky, but doesn't have enough room to flap her wings and with so many students all together, her wings are in great risk on getting stepped on.
Realizing she needs assistance, Iida scooped her into his arm and held her as high as he could. With much more space, Sierra immediately took to the air, hovering over the mob and circling to stay airborne.
Happy that the first part of the plan worked, Iida pushed through the crowd and extended his left-hand towards Ochako.
"Uraraka, touch my hand!" He called out, confusing the scared girl. "Make me float! I need to be in the air with Sierra!"
Not certain what he has in mind but trusting him on what he plans to do, she extended her right-hand towards his hand. She leaned in as far as she can go, unable to push through the crowd to get to Iida. Her first attempt to touch his hand, missed by mere inches. But, on the second try, after the fifteen year-old stretched his hand closer, Ochako made contact with his hand.
The moment she touched him, her Quirk activated and Iida immediately floated in the air and is out of the mob, floating beside Sierra.
He pulled the leg of his pants away from his legs, freeing the engines of his legs and ready to shift gears to activate his Quirk, not bothering to grab his glasses that fell off his face.
Iida turned to the bird.
"I need you to grab on to me and help me reach to the front of the crowd! Keep me from spinning out of control!"
Nodding her head, Sierra got behind the older-teen and dug her talons into the back of his school uniform, grabbing a firm grip on him.
"Ready!" She informed him, allowing him to activate his Quirk and a gush of wind left his engines. While taken back from the sudden blast of wind coming from his engines, the fourteen year-old held on tight and pushed to fly the both of them forward to the front.
Below them, Izuku was at a loss on what they were going to do, while relieved to see his god-sister is okay and with one of their friends. Kaminari and Kirishima, trying to get the crowd to calm down and being ignored, watched in awe as the two students in the air flew for the exit.
Before he slammed into the wall, Sierra released him, hovering beside him.
With his feet on top of the exit sign and grabbing for the pole beside his head with his right-hand, he finally made his voice heard.
"EVERYONE, LISTEN UP!" He yelled at the top of his voice, overpowering every students' panicking voice and stopping them in their tracks to look up and stare at Iida. "Everything's okay! It's just the media outside! There's no need to panic! Everything's fine!"
All the students below him didn't utter a single word, all too transfixed on staring at the student standing above them.
The moment they went quiet, Sierra perched herself next to the hand that held on to the pipe, giving her wings a moment to rest and eyeing everyone to make sure none dares to interrupt Iida's words.
Then, a second voice called out within the crowd, revealing to being Momo.
"We're U.A. Students!" She reminded them, her voice being just as strong as Iida's. "We need to stay calm, and prove that we're the best of the best! The police will arrive shortly to deal with the media! Right now, everyone, calmly return to your classrooms and await further instructions from your teachers! And for those who've been harassed by the media for the last two days, make sure to inform your teachers of the situation so they can give your statement to the police and make sure they get punished for their actions!"
After their speech, the students all calmed down and were just as relieved and happy when they saw that the police arrived at the school. The media were immediately escorted off the school's premises, no doubt many to be taken to the police station to be charged for their trespassing.
As she helped Iida to the ground by keeping a firm grip on his shirt and Uraraka's Quirk still intact with him, though is struggling to keep her Quirk activated by covering hands over her mouth to avoid hurling, Sierra's sharp vision saw what the other students hadn't realized.
The media didn't get past the school's defenses... They went through the barrier, from a massive hole within the barrier.
Back in Class 1-A…
"It's time to start Class Rep, Izuku." Sierra turned to Izuku, who slightly trembled in his post at the desk.
"R-Right." He replied, nervous on what everyone's going to think on what he's going to announce to them. "Before we discuss about who are class officers will be, I-uh, I have an announcement to make. -Turning to Sierra, who nodded his head, he swallowed past the lump in his throat to continue speaking.- I thought long and hard about this, and... I think Tenya Iida should be our Class Rep!"
Within her vision, she saw the stunned look on Iida's expression, while some of the students were a bit confused on his decision to picking him as their new leader.
"While everybody else was panicking, he was able to stay calm and get everybody's attention, keeping us in line. So, that's why, I believe, from here on in, he should be the one to lead our classroom."
Iida was really at a loss for words for being recognized of his success on calming a hallway full of students.
"I second that." Sierra replied, smiling at the older-teen. "Iida has proven to work well, even when under pressured, and find a way to get everybody's attention and prevent us from fighting amongst ourselves... That's why, I voted for him to being our leader."
Admitting to being one of the two to vote for him, Tenya couldn't help but feel honored of the fourteen year-old voting for him.
"If Midoriya and Arashi vouches for him, then I'm good with it." Kirishima spoke out, seemed completely happy with the sudden change. "He was the only one to man up and take control, while the rest of us were panicking."
"Yeah." Kaminari agreed. "And he actually looked cool when he poses like the Emergency Exit Guy."
Receiving nodding of approval by some of the other students, along with Izuku and Sierra, letting him know that they want him to do it, Iida stood from his seat.
"If Midoriya and Sierra are both nominating me for the job... Then, I humbly accept!" He replied, raising his right-hand in the air. "I shall lead this classroom, at the best of my abilities! I give you all my word!"
"Go for it, Emergency Exit!" Kirishima encouraged, giving him a thumbs up.
Pleased that the position is taken care of, Sierra stepped up.
"I, also, have something to say." She announced, getting everybody's attention. "Iida isn't the only one who displayed leadership amongst the students, earlier today. And after hearing her words of wisdom, I wish to step down as Deputy and give the role over to Momo Yaoyorozu."
Said girl gasped lightly at the younger-girl's suggestion on passing the role of second command to her.
Like Izuku, the students were surprised of her decision to step down.
"But why are you stepping down?" Mina asked, shocked that by the news. "You would make a great Deputy!"
Sierra shook her head.
"I wouldn't, actually." She replied, smiling shyly. "As you are aware, I'm not much of a conversationist and prefer keeping to myself. While a second in command must be opened with their thoughts and information, and support the leader in any way that they can. They understand how much communication is important, and the importance on being heard. Momo demonstrated great knowledge and observation, during yesterday's training, and has aided Iida on getting the students to remain calm and to follow instructions on what to do. And that is why, I say she should help Iida lead the class."
She turned to Iida, knowing he would see that her decision to being true and should be a great asset to leading Class 1-A.
Still remain standing, he gave her a firm nod off approval.
"I agree with Sierra's decision -He turned to Momo, who gave him a stun look.- If you are to accept the role as Deputy, Yaoyorozu, I would be honored to have you help me to lead this class to the best of our abilities."
Seeing he was being serious and is willing to work with her, Momo got out of her seat.
"I accept the position," she answered. "I will do whatever I can to assist Iida to leading this classroom."
Many of the students, while some were taken back by the sudden change and a few thinks Izuku and Sierra should be the one to lead them, they were completely fine with the new Class Representative and Deputy.
"Are you all done wasting time?" Aizawa asked, snug into his sleeping bag after dealing with the news reporters. "If so, get on with your business." He ordered, falling right back for to the ground.
However, this time, Sierra morphed into her cheetah form and caught him before his head hit the floor... Though, she did flinched when his head hit her square in the back, irritating the area of her back to a burning pain.
She let out a low groan.
"Are you trying to purposely injure yourself?" She growled, gently setting his head on the ground. "It's a wonder you don't get migraines, from the multiple times you let yourself fall and hit your head against the ground."
"You should be more concern for yourself, Arashi." Her teacher told her, his eyes already closed. "If you keep worrying for everyone but yourself, that will end up becoming your greatest downfall."
"It may perhaps, one day, become my downfall... But, so long there is breath in me, I won't stop helping others, even if they do not wish for my help."
He didn't say anything else and the students all assumed he fell right back to sleep, but the feline knew he's still awake from the rhythm of his heartbeat. She didn't need to say any more and went back to her desk, morphing back into her human-self.
While the class continued their Class Representative meeting, figuring out who will be the officers of the group, Sierra's mind was more focused on what happened.
'None of those reporters could've made that hole into the barriers; they're all Quirkless. Even if they did have Quirks, the barrier should've been too strong to be so easily damaged, let alone for somebody to make a hole that massive without anybody noticing. Which means, this person either, somehow, snuck through the media, after snapping out of the trance that student put them in, and used their Quirk slowly until it starts to dissolve on its own and went into hiding... Or, they were waiting for the right moment to casually walk up to the gate to activate it's defense and immediately used their Quirk as quickly as they could and took off before the media came back.'
The shiver came back when thinking on who could've possibly be responsible for damaging the barrier. With no doubt in her mind, it was the mystery person she assumed to being a villain.
'That person clearly ignored my warning and made their move, but... Why didn't this person try to blend in with the media and hid themselves within the campus, before the cops came and when our teachers weren't looking...? Maybe, just maybe, they want to make themselves known for some reason, as some warning... Or, perhaps, they came for like what the media wanted: To see Toshinori Yagi... They wanted All Might.'
