As Raymond woke up he was unnaturally sluggish. His sluggish wake up was a reminder of his mistake last night
[uh shouldn't have skipped dinner] ray thought as he literally rolled off of his bed covers and all [ I knew id regret it in the morning but I forgot how bad it was]
ray decided to get up and go straight for the bathroom. He decided that a hot shower would be the quickest way to wake up his body.
After the shower ray felt a lot less sluggish and slow. Though he did still feel tired and hungry.
so Raymond pulled on most on his uniform before walking to the kitchen
ray looked at his watch [huh...6:45 I don't have a lot of time so I guess I'm going with an omelet.]
ray decided to go with a simple favorite of his a spinach, sausage and pepper omelet
as ray sat down he thought about yesterday [ so far the PAC cannon seems like a massive success. i would of never imagined that work on it would go so fast. While Mei is eccentric I have to admit that she is very competent and intelligent.]
ray decide that it was time to leave for school when he finished his omelet.
As ray pulled up to the school he noticed a crowd was surrounding the front gate
[ what the hell is going on up there.] ray thought as he approached the gate
Raymond met up with some of his classmates at the gate.
"hey ray how have you been," Ochaka asked as Midoriya nodded along with the question
"I'm all good," ray said as he walked up right up to the gate.
"hey do you guys know All Might" a small female reporter asked as she leaned over to ray and put the mic up to his face,
Ray's face scrunched up and he lightly recoiled to the invasion of his space. the violent action making the reporter move back a bit
Ochako decided to respond for the slightly shocked and put off ray. " ya we know him"
"what's he like the reporter says clearly excited and now moving the mic down for the shorter Ochako.
"well," Ochaka began " he's super strong" Ochaka continued as she flexed her arm " and he's super nice and always smiling." Ochako finishes
Before more conversation can continue Mr Aizawa comes through. " please leave my students alone they have places to be," he says with a dry tone and clearly tired and bored eyes.
Before more can be said ray guided both of his classmates to the classroom
When they arrived in the room they saw some of their classmates... and of course, Bakugo arguing with someone as is his forte
"shut up shitty hair" Bakugo bellowed at Kirishima for some reason Raymond couldn't give a shit about
" get a room if yall wanna argue like a married couple." ray said to the two as he sat down in his seat
Bakugo snapped his head toward ray but decided to not engage him after what happened the last time
Mr Aizawa walks into the room in his normal disheveled and haphazard state. he looked across the whole room. " if you guys would stop your time-wasting we can begin our day."
the whole class stiffened at his outburst and began to straighten up and pay attention.
Mr Aizawa nodded in content approval. "good. now the first thing we have to do is pick a class president." Mr Aizawa yawned as he began to pull himself back into his sleeping bag " I don't care who gets picked or how but you have 10 minutes"
the class immediately began to bicker about how a person would be picked.
Raymond loomed around amused as he wrote Momo on an index card.
he then overheard something about people voting for themselves and turned to the source to see Kirishima. "just make it where you can't vote for yourself that will make it more genuine"
the whole class looked at Ray like he had suggested a way to solve world hunger. as he walked to the 'ballet box' and dropped his vote inside
the class finally got their act together and began to put in their votes. the final results ended up being Momo class president and Midoryia being the vice
when Midoryia was in front of the class he was looking around sporadically as he muttered to himself
Momo on the other hand was calm and was exuding a calm confidence
Ray chucked internally [I can bet you that Bakugo is seething] ray turned slightly to see Bakugo out of the corner of his eye. [hah yep]
the rest of the day till lunch went by calmly and in boredom.
After ray had gotten his food he had decided to pull up a chair near Midoriya and his group of friends.
Midoriya turned sightly toward ray " Hey ray how do you like the food."
Raymond's face scrunched up as he thought about his opinion on the more popular foods here. " it's pretty good more rice than I'm used to but other than that I enjoy it Especially the most the sauces you guys have."
Midoriya looked as if he was reaching for a book and ray reached over to put a hand on his shoulder. " dude you don't have to write that down it's not a factual statement just some random guys opinion"
Midoriya initially flinches At the contact before relaxing. "Ya y...your right."
Ray made a mental note to not touch Midoriya anymore as he can tell how uncomfortable it makes him. He made a mental note to ask him about it some other time
A shrill alarm went off throughout the whole cafe.
"level 3 security breach detected"
iida turned to the nearest student " what is a level 3 security breach"
The senior looked frazzled " it means that someone breached the school's defenses.."
Ray interrupted before he could finish as he moved toward the exit "How common is this"
The senior responded as they all got into the hallway. " This is my first and I'm a 3rd year "
[ great I just had to be part of some shit like this.] Ray joined the crowd in the hallway and was immediately consumed by the large group of panicking individuals. The massive mob caused him to be separated from Midoriya Ochako and iida.
Hatsume saw ray in the crowd thanks to his distinguishing look " HEEYY Ray do you know what happened?"
Ray swept his head around looking for mei before he felt a tap on his left arm." oh there you are. There was a level 3 security breach"
Mei tilted her head to the side at him as she was pushed even closer to him by the crowd "I know that part, but what caused it?"
Raymond continued scanning his surroundings before locking his eyes on the massive wall of windows to their right. " Don't know but if this doesn't clear up in 5 minutes I'm gonna make a new exit out of that window."
" Good luck with that those windows are 30cms of reinforced ballistic glass," A student behind Ray with a tired look and indigo hair said.
"Thanks, but I wouldn't need it." Ray responded
As ray finished his sentence iida was seen cartwheeling toward the front of the hallway near the exit.
[thats one way to get a group's attention.]
" Everyone calm down, it's just reporters outside." the crowd began to calm after iida's words " We are from the prestigious school of UA we have to show it."
Shortly after iida's announcement, the police were seen arriving on the scene.
" The police are here," A random student said
After the police had arrived things had gone back to normal With students going back to class.
"See you later Mei" Ray said as he prepared to get to class after the incident after lunch.
"uhuh see you after school" Mei said as she hopped off to the workshop.
Outside UA high
Ray had never seen a field trip announced so casually. It was kind of weird for him to see it done without the fanfare, tho to be fair it was unlikely that word was in Aizawa's vocabulary.
"Everyone line up in two rows so we can get on in an orderly fashion." iida said from the door in front of the bus
[oh ya and iida now has a leadership position.] ray thought as he boarded the bus
the inside of the bus reminded him of an NYC MTA bus but without the handholds and such for standing passengers
Ray was sat near all the way in the back hoping for a quiet ride. UNfortunately, Bakugo exists and so sometime during the ride, an explosive outburst was had. Ray ignored it and tried to snooze back off before Aizawa announced that they had arrived at their location.
Raymond looked out the window and saw the biggest dome he had ever seen.
The class exited the bus and walked up to the person in a large bulky spacesuit.
"Oh my god, it's 13" Ochako said as bounced on the balls of her toes.
13 brought them into the dome where it was shown just how massive the inside was. The ceilings were over 100 feet tall and there were multiple different and distinct areas.
"Holy crap it looks like some kind of amusement park." Kirishima said taking the thoughts right of Ray's brain
"A shipwreck, A landslide, A fire zone, A wind storm, ETC. I created this training facility to help prepare you guys for different rescue situations and you can call it USJ!" 13 explained to the class
13 also made a speech about the fact that as hero course students they needed to recognize that their powers could harm others a fact that especially with all the sensationalization and media coverage of heros could be easily forgotten. For ray it was just another sobering reminder of how much he needed to control his quirk.
AS the class prepared to begin the exercise the lights flickered and the water fountain near the entrance began to malfunction. Before a black portal-like swirl began to form near said fountain.
Aizawa saw the portal and immediately tensed up something which ray picked up on causing him to tense up as well.
"What is that thing?" Kirishima asked as he tried to get closer to get a better look at the swirling wall of black
"Get back! this is not a test!" Aizawa said as he put on his Shaders
Ray watched as the villains seemed to flow like water out of the black mist. there were so many
Of course, Midoryia was always selfless " Mr Aizawa you cant take them all on by yourself your quirk is not meant for group combat"
Aizawa smirked slightly before jumping down. " you can't be a pro if you only have one trick."
13 began to lead the class toward the entrance." come on kids "
of course, Ray knew that it could never be that easy
The black mist covered the entire exit in an instant
[just great a teleporting mist] Ray thought
"it is a pleasure to meet you. We are the league of villains and we have invited ourselves into your haven." the mist rumbled
Ray prepared for a fight by lowering his stance and bracing himself. Before he could think of any offensive moves tho Bakugo and Kirishima had both tried to attack the mist. [What the hell is Shima thinking his quirk is terrible for this matchup and they both attacked before looking for a tangible object]
" Did you think we would stand by as you tried to tear this place apart?" Kirishima asked after his failed attack
As the smoke cleared it was shown that the mist was unharmed by both attacks. "You children live up to your school's reputation. I guess I will have to scatter you guys after all." The mist said in a tired monotone.
The mist covered almost the entire class. Ray felt as if it dragged him somewhere the feeling almost indescriable. before he saw a glow And felt the burning heat at the end of the portal.
Raymond fell a good 8 feet to the ground luckily not injuring anything in the process.
He stood as he took in his surroundings feeling the sweltering heat and seeing the raging flames. After a moment he saw Ojiro as well getting up on his feet and looking in slight fear at the flames, But Raymond saw a different danger in the figures that were coming toward them.
They were in the fire zone AND THEY were not ALONE.
