Hi, thank you for the follows/reviews etc. I hope you like the next chapter :)
The lunch bell rang and Kisa watched her peers filter out of the classroom until it was just her and the sweet silence. Her stomach rumbled lightly, but she had no intention of eating. More than anything; she was tired and laying her head down on the desk sounded a hell of a lot better than stuffing her face at the moment, so that's exactly what she did. She folded her arms on her desk, covering her face slightly and only moments later she was out like a light.
When the 30-minute lunch break was almost over, Bakugou was the first to return to the classroom. The sound of the door slamming open made the room vibrate as the ash blonde sauntered in. His noisy entrance wasn't enough to wake the sleeping figure in the back of the room though. Looking in her direction, Bakugou's eye twitched. He was about to yell at her to wake up when he was interrupted.
"What are you doing, Bakugou?" Todoroki questioned, making his was to his seat.
"Mind your business, Icy Hot. What I do is none of your damned concern!"
"It is when it's disruptive."
"Sleeping in class isn't?!" The hothead shouted.
"Class hasn't started yet" he pointed out, eyes flicking to the clock on the wall "Though she should be woken up."
"That's what I was trying to do, dumbass!"
Todoroki watched as Bakugou approached the sleeping girl and grabbed her shoulder to shake her awake. 'He can't do anything gracefully.'
"Get the fuck up" he growled, giving Kisa's shoulder a hard shake and ripping her out of her slumber. The female's eyes flew open, brain registering nothing but pressure on her shoulder and an aggressive voice. Her heart leapt into her throat and she instinctively tried to back away from whoever had their hands on her. Her chair tilted backwards, sending her along with it and to the floor. She somehow managed to right herself and use her heels to push herself backwards until her back slammed against the wall. Eyes wide and heart hammering in her chest, she finally took in her surroundings. Kisa was mortified to see the wide eyes of Todoroki and Bakugou looking back at her.
Her sudden, panicked movements actually startled Bakugou, causing him to become angry and snap in retaliation "What the FUCK is wrong with you?! All I did was touch your shoulder, idiot!"
"Bakugou, leave her alone" Todoroki approached, offering Kisa his hand to help her up. "She's obviously scared and yelling at her isn't going to help anything"
"What the fuck is she so scared of!?" Bakugou continued to shout.
"I-I'm not scared; I was just having a bad dream. I'm sorry! I-I didn't mean to cause a problem" Kisa got up, ignoring Todoroki's hand, but forcing a smile in his direction in thanks.
"Not scared, my ass!" Bakugou began, stopping his oncoming rant as the rest of the class started filing into the room. "You're so damned weird."
"Sorry" Kisa mumbled as she fixed her chair and sat down.
Todoroki had some suspicions about the girls' jumpy behavior, but kept them to himself. She was new and it wasn't his business.
This time, Kisa was ready when the bell rang. She immediately sprang to her feet and raced out of the room, not wanting to get caught up in questioning or anything of the sort. She headed directly home only to have a repeat of the night before. 'It is what it is' she reminded herself, making a mental note to not forget to check herself over properly in the morning.
Kisa picked up her costume on her way in the next morning, being reminded that she'd be needing it for class that day. She didn't even bother to look at it, a sense of guilt washed over her.
'All of these students are here because they have aspirations and dreams of being heroes. I shouldn't even be here, do I even want to be a hero?' she questioned herself, engulfed in thought, but arriving at her seat in her classroom without issue. She'd never been given the option of being a hero or not so she'd never bothered to hash her feelings about it out. Ridley had decided for her that she was to become a pro hero and that was it. It was her only order in life. 'It's just so that I can make him money' she sighed. 'Whatever, what I want doesn't and shouldn't matter anyway.'
Soon the entire class was instructed to change into their costumes and meet in one of the training arenas.
Kisa felt much better in her costume than the school uniform, feeling far less exposed without the skirt. Her costume was simple, knee high boots in dark grey followed by mid-thigh green cargo shorts, a utility belt to hold her trench knives for if she needed them, a teal shark bitten top and a cropped, fitted black hoodie. The only other thing she wore was grappler tape around her hands and around her ankles, under her boots.
She stretched her hands above her head and leaned back, sighing softly at the pleasurable pop her back made at the motion. The redhead made her way to the training arena and met up with the rest of the class.
"Kisa, I like your costume! It's simple, but it suits you" Uraraka beamed at her. The new girl looked over the others costume and smiled at her.
"Thanks, I like yours too. It's really cute."
"Really? I still wonder if it's a bit too snug sometimes, but I guess I've gotten used to it haha!"
"Alright, today isn't anything excessively special" Aizawa spoke, interrupting their conversation. "We'll be drawing names to see who's going to be sparring with who. Kisa, you're at a disadvantage here since you probably don't know what most of their quirks are capable of, but don't let it razzle you too much. Iida, you're up first."
The class rep stuck his hand into a box held by Aizawa and drew a name, he ended up with Sato. One by one they went up until everyone had their opponent. In the end the lineup was:
Iida- Sato
Midoriya- Jiro
Mineta- Tokoyami
Todoroki- Uraraka
Shoji- Yaoyorozu
Koda- Kirishima
Bakugou- Ojiro
Sero-Ashido
Aoyama- Asui
Kaminari- Kisa
"Lucky bastard" Mineta seethed at Kaminari. "You're in a perfect boob grabbing situation!"
"Yeah, but I actually have to fight her. What if I hurt her?"
"You guys are sad" Asui shook her head.
"Wait, what about Toru?" Yaoyorozu asked, realizing the invisible girl's name was never called and the odd number in the class posed a problem.
"I get to be the honorary referee!" she squealed, apparently excited at the idea of assisting Aizawa.
"Yeah, that" he deadpanned 'Alright, let's get this show on the road, Kisa and Kaminari, you're up first."
"Aw, why do we have to go first!?" The blonde whined.
"Because I said so, now get in the ring. First to throw the other out, wins."
Kisa and Kaminari stood on opposite sides of the large ring, awaiting the signal to begin. They were both mildly aware of the many eyes on them, but it seemed to bug Kisa more than the male. He'd obviously had plenty of experience performing in front of the others so it no longer bothered him.
"I totally get it if you just wanna let me win" Kaminari called to Kisa. "Noone would blame you, since your new and all."
"I'm good, thanks though" Kisa smiled, she wasn't a confident person, but she knew how to fight. She should be able to hold her own.
"Alright" Toru yelled, "Begin!"
Kisa didn't wait for him to make a move, instead she immediately ran in close to land an attack. Keeping low she pumped adrenaline into her legs allowing her to flip behind her opponent to throw a jab. Kaminari dodged it by rolling out of the way, but she was on him again as he was getting up. The redhead spun, kicking the blonde to the opposite side of the ring, but not enough to knock him out of it.
"So quick!" Asui smiled as she watched the fight.
Bouncing on her toes a few times, Kisa dashed in again, but Kaminari was up and fiddling with the mechanism on his arm. Unsure of the devices use, she stopped and back flipped a few feet away, in time to see him send a projectile in her direction. Again, she pumped adrenaline into her legs, allowing her to dodge the device, only to see him fire off a few more. She chose to serpentine, staggering her run from side to side in an erratic pattern to avoid being hit by whatever those discs were.
'He really doesn't want me to get close to him' she thought, stopping for a moment when she realized he wasn't firing any more discs at her. 'He probably doesn't fight well close up.'
"There's no fucking way she fell down some stairs. Bitch really did lie" Bakugou scowled.
"So you're fast! I get that" Kaminari laughed. "Let's see if you can dodge my quirk though!" He began sending electricity to the discs that he'd fired out. They now stuck to the floor acting as conductors for his shocks.
Kisa dodged, dashing around the ring and trying her best to get close, but he seemed to be able to keep her far enough away so she couldn't do anything. 'I have to throw him off' she decided, starting to purposely maneuver into a pattern. Go left, back off then right then repeat. She did this a few times over, hoping he'd picked up on it. She waited until she was at her closest before breaking the pattern she'd set. The female jumped high, flipping around and landing close enough to sweep Kaminari's legs out from under him.
A string of his electricity struck her right arm as he fell, "Ah, fuck!" she yelped, jumping away on instinct, but managing to correct herself and run back in immediately. 'I can't give him time to re-stabilize.'
Kaminari threw his arms up to block the punch Kisa was about to throw, but it never came. Eyes widening, Kisa realized she couldn't feel her arm or even lift it. 'What the hell?' The blonde took advantage of the situation, throwing his fist and knocking the girl backwards. Kisa rolled a few times and sprung back onto her feet to lock eyes with her opponent, panting slightly.
"Can't feel your arm huh? Don't worry, it'll get feeling back eventually" Kaminari grinned. 'I wish I could just use my ultimate and end this, but I'd hit everyone else if I did that.'
"Good to know. Glad I have another one" Kisa smiled, deciding she was sick of this fight and hoping her next plan would work. She darted towards him once again, watching as he motioned to direct his electricity towards her. Kisa discreetly pulled one of her knives out of her holster and threw it towards him with force, making Kaminari jump to the side to dodge the projectile. As soon as he landed, the redhead was there to throw a heavy, quirk infused, punch with her left hand and send the electricity user across the floor and out of bounds.
"Kisa wins!" Toru announced.
"Great job, you both were outstanding" Iida called, some of the others adding their words of encouragement behind him.
"Well done" Aizawa commented passively. 'She's quick on her feet and focused, she's definitely had a lot of training.'
"Are you alright?" Kisa asked as she offered her good hand out to Kaminari to help him up.
"Dammit, so close! Heh, I'll be fine though. You took me by surprise" he chuckled, accepting the help and trying to remain cool. "What about you? I don't have great control on my quirk so I'm not sure how hard you got hit."
She shrugged "I still can't feel it, but I assume it'll get better with time, as you said."
"Yeah, just might wanna go to heal girl if it doesn't."
Nodding, Kisa made her way over to the sidelines with the rest of the class to watch the next match.
"Were you using your quirk during that? You looked so cool!" Uraraka whispered once Kisa was close enough, excitement clear in her voice.
"Thanks, I used it a little bit. When I was throwing hits or speeding up" She explained, but didn't offer any additional info.
The class watched the rest of the matches, taking in the different abilities and improvements their peers had made. Kisa just enjoyed being able to watch someone else fight for once. A short match like hers was nothing compared her nightly training.
Kisa was glad to realize the feeling in her arm was starting to return. 'It was fun to actually spar against someone for once though' she thought, shaking her head before turning her attention back to the match before her 'Maybe I can learn some things from these matches.'
I feel like we don't know a ton about Kaminari's abilities, so I apologize for adding anything in that may not be canon.
