Chapter 13 – Drive

Mika had never been so happy to get out of a bus in her life. Everyone filtered out and she immediately stood away from the group with her arms crossed over her chest and her bored look firmly resting across her face. Bakugo had also distanced himself to the other side of the group leaving Denki and Eijiro stood conflicted between them. They were all stood in the shadow of the largest dome like building that any of them had ever seen. It almost stretched into the horizon when they looked to the left and right of them. Mika was not bothered about soaking everything in at that moment in time though, she had her eyes pinned to her shoe laces as she got lost in her own head.

Mika felt like she was about ready to punch something. Not only had Todoroki bought out her bad side, he had then completely floored her by calling her repulsive. She had never been called anything so hurtful in her life. She knew that she wasn't the easiest person to get on with, but it was something that she was desperately trying to change, and she thought that she had been getting better. It wasn't her fault that for most of her life, indifference and coldness was all she was shown, and therefore all she was really capable of expressing. She didn't think that it made her repulsive though. She could feel the embarrassment curling around inside her stomach and it made her want to throw up.

Then to top it all off, the little gross perv Mineta had pointed something out that she had feared all her life. That she was better suited to being a villain than a hero. Those words were the ones that hurt her the most. After everything she had been through, and the way that she had been treated. People saw a dark powered Quirk and immediately assumed you were destined to be dark too. Like just because her Quirk was an affinity with shadows, meant that she was made for a life skulking around in them committing crimes and causing misery. It wasn't who she was deep down and she knew it. She may look angry like a villain sometimes, and lord knew that she could throw a glare like she could murder with it, but she was soft and that was the reason why those words hurt so much.

'No one is ever going to understand you… not like me, you're mine'

She knew it was all down to her own fault, she had let herself get too worked up and she had made herself into a bad guy. She shouldn't be so surprised.

Deep down, you always knew people would think you would be a better villain than hero. Why are you so surprised? Isn't this why I'm here, aren't I here to prove them wrong and become a caring and amazing hero?

"Right, come together and follow me!" Aizawa-sensei shouted out, his eyes shooting to Bakugo and then across to Mika, both of them looking rather stormy already. He sighed and turned to stalk up the stairs, Class 1-A following closely behind him. They reached the top and he swung open the doors, revealing what was inside the massive great dome.

Set out before the class was a behemoth of a set up. They were stood up on a platform that had stairs leading down to a central plaza that had paths winding out towards different sections with all kinds of terrain. Mika felt her worries lessen a little as the awe of the location took over a little. She could see a mountainous area with sharp tall rocks, right next to what looked like a landslide area, for there was a large slope with buildings capsized into it. Then there was a huge water filled area with a massive water fall creating large waves. The more she looked around the more she could see and it blew her mind. This place is insane, I want to live in here.

"WHOAAAAAAA!" Mina shouted as she skipped forward to soak it all in.

"Is this Universal Studios Japan?" Kirishima shouted as he too took a step forward to get a better look. Mika shuffled as quietly as she could so that she was now stood behind Denki and Eijiro, as much as she was in a foul mood and upset, she didn't want to miss out and so she figured being moody with her friends was a good idea. Denki spotted her joining them and he nudged her, giving her a reassuring smile before turning back to the view before them.

"There's a flood zone, landslide zone… a conflagration zone…" Izuku started rattling off, pure wonder in his big green eyes.

"Every disaster and accident you could imagine… I built this facility myself, I call it the 'Unforeseen Simulation Joint'" Everyone turned to where the new voice had come from. To the left of them, a person decked out in an astronaut's suit. The voice sounded strange, like it had echoed around in the helmet before making its way out the speaker.

"It's the space hero Thirteen!" Izuku gushed, and Mika could see Uraraka bouncing with excitement beside him. Double Adorable.

"He's a gentleman hero who does his best work in rescue scenarios… Oh I love Thirteen" Uraraka also enthused.

The class all chattered excitedly about the brand-new Hero before them as Aizawa-sensei approached to have a private conversation between teachers. Eijiro had pulled Bakugo over to join them and the four of them began discussing which section they wanted to have a go in first. Mika was content to listen as Denki and Eijiro joked around and Bakugo snapped at them. See, they don't think you are bad, they wouldn't want to stick around with you if they didn't like you… get a grip and grow a pair Mika.

"The fire one would be a good one for me, the flames would kick off some wicked shadows" She stated as Bakugo finished raving about how the fire too would be the best for him. He looked to her and smirked, and for the first time he didn't offer her a quip or comeback and she seemed a little taken aback by it all. There was a fierceness in his eyes and she tacked it down to him just pumped to inflict damage on anyone and anything.

"So be it… Lets get started!" Aizawa-Sensei called out to silence everyone. The whole Class turned with rapt attention to what came next. Their grumpy tired looking homeroom teacher swung his arm out to let Thirteen take the stage and then he shuffled back out the way.

"Before we do, I have one or two points… or three…" He started to prattle on, counting the points on his fingers as if thinking of new ones as he went along. "… or maybe four or five… anyway, as I'm sure you are aware, my quirk is called 'Black Hole'. It can suck in and tear apart anything." He explained.

The whole class was listening with complete attention as the Hero before them set about his explanation. Mika couldn't help but feel like that was the coolest quirk she had ever heard. Anything to do with space was pretty awesome and really rare, just like Uraraka's quirk, when she thought about it.

"You've used it to save people in all sorts of disasters" Izuku offered with a bright smile, Uraraka nodding so fast beside him she looked like a blur.

"Indeed, however my power could easily kill. I've no doubt there are some among you with similar abilities" Thirteen dropped and everyone felt their smiles drop at the insinuation. Mika felt her heart fall out her arse as that fact triggered a soundbite in her head, steel grey eyes flashed across her memory.

'…You're mine now, my little shadow puppet…'

"In our super powered society, the use of quirks is heavily restricted and monitored. It may seem that this system is a stable one, but we must never forget that it only takes one wrong move with an uncontrollable quirk for people to die…"

The class remained silent as the heavy words sunk in, for its meaning was unbearably clear. People needed to train so hard and be so uber aware of every aspect of their quirk in order to understand and control and therefore use it to aid others. Mika knew that it would be all too easy for her to unleash too much dark energy in one go and break something, or someone. The same with her healing quirk, it would be all too easy to get carried away and transfer too much dark energy into the victim and blow their insides to pieces. There was a fine line, and they all needed to be completely comfortable with treading it before they started to put others lives into the mix.

"During Aizawa's physical fitness Test you came to learn of your own hidden potential… through All Might's Battle Training you experienced the danger that your respective quirks can pose to others." Thirteen went on, his voice being completely absorbed by the class. "This class will show you a new perspective! You will learn to utilise your quirks to save lives. Your powers are not meant to inflict harm, I hope you leave here today with the understanding that you're meant to help people!"

Mika could feel her excitement building at the prospect of getting stuck into the rescue training, all the while Thirteen was speaking she could feel her drive strengthening and the hurt of being called a villain and repulsive only added to the fuel. They will have to eat their words when she surpassed them in todays exercise, and then none of them would ever question whether she was really a hero or not.

"That is all! Thank you for listening" Thirteen bowed deeply before the class, making them all erupt into applause at the strong and inspirational words he bestowed upon them all. Mika clapped slowly along with the rest of them.

"He's awesome" Uraraka beamed as she threw Thirteen a thumbs up.

"Bravo Bravooooo!" Iida shouted as he clapped the loudest.

Bunch of adorable idiots.

"Great, now first off…" Aizawa-sensei started, before his head turned sharply to the side. Mika frowned as a horrid crackling sound filled the dome, echoing around and making the whole class fall silent once more. All eyes followed where Aizawa-sensei was looking and down below them before the centre of the plaza something was forming.

It was like a black mist that slowly and surely started to spread and open up like a black hole. Mika couldn't help but reach out with her hand to try sussing out the shadows and understand what it was, but before she had a chance to try a hand clamped down on her shoulder and she turned to see Denki shake his head at her. They both looked back to the mist in time to see something reach out of it, and when Mika really squinted, she could make out a hand reaching out and grabbing at the air.

"HUDDLE UP AND DON'T MOVE!" Aizawa-sensei shouted back at them all, which made a few of them jump. The fierceness in his voice and the way his face was set in fury, Mika couldn't help but take a step backwards. What the hell? Why does our Hero homeroom teacher look scared?

"Huh?" Iida stuttered as they all looked on completely confused.

"Thirteen! Protect the students?!" Aizawa-sensei carried on shouting striding away from them and towards the top of the stairs.

Then from before them the mist launched out sideward, creating a black like crack in the plaza, and out poured what looked like dozens and dozens of people, of all shapes and sizes and kinds. Mika could see some were absolutely huge, whilst others were small, yet what worried her the most was the way they were all creeping up towards the base of the stairs, all of them looking up with hatred in their eyes at them. What the hell, are those real people… are they supposed to be a part of the simulations? What's going on?

"What the heck's that?" Eijiro shouted to their homeroom teacher. "More battle robots like in the entrance exam?"

"Those aren't robots…" Mika muttered, Denki and Eijiro looking back at her with worry in their faces. She was vaguely aware of Izuku trying to move forward to get a better look but Aizawa turned back and flashed him a warning glare, before pulling his goggles up over his eyes.

"Don't move!" He shouted. "Those are Villains!"

Those last three words made every single one of the class stop breathing almost. Mika felt a freezing cold drip of fear run right down her spine and through into her toes as goose bumps erupted over her skin. She watched with sick anticipation as the villains flowed out from the black mist and towards the bottom of the stairs. Villains? In a U.A Facility…

Mika's head started to kick into gear and she remembered Aizawa-sensei had told them all to gather together. She grabbed Denki and Eijiro's hands and pulled them closer to the group. She flashed Bakugo a look and he merely nodded, and side stepped closer to them all.

"We need to stay together…" She stated, when her friends looked to her and they then in turn nodded back too.

"Thirteen and Erasure Head is it?" Came a deep voice, and everyone's eyes narrowed in as the black mist flew back inwards and formed an almost humanoid looking shape with white eyes appearing. "According to the staff schedule I received the other day… All Might is supposed to be here…"

"Did they just say they have a staff schedule?" Mika gasped. A few of the class looking to her with wide eyes at the implication.

"Of course, that whole incident was this scums doing" Aizawa-sensei theorised.

"Where is he? We've come all this way and brought so many playmates…" A new voice sounded. Lanky looking man stood just in front of the black mist villain, with what looked like hands covering him. It was unbelievably gruesome, with one very pale withered hand clasping the villains face, one wired blood shot eye peeking out between two fingers. "… All Might, the symbol of peace… is he here?"

"What does he want with All Might?" Jiro asked, looking terrified as she grabbed onto Momo's hand.

They all watched with sickening fear as the man covered in hands took two shaky steps forwards and then pointed his own hand up at the class, his visible eye twitching over each of the students faces.

"I wonder if some dead kids will bring him here?" He cackled, making Mika audibly gasp.

Shit…
