The next day much of the class broke into groups as they walked towards the main UA building from the dorms. Some of the commuter students were being hounded by the media about what it was like to be taught by All Might and Izuku scoffed. Bunch of fucking vultures. Izuku made his way into school with his little group currently consisting of Iida and Uraraka. They made their way to class. As they rest of the class arrived, they broke into groups to talk for the morning before taking a seat about 2 minutes before class.
When Aizawa walked in closer to class time, he was pleasantly surprised to find his class was already beginning to act more rational. With that he handed out the grades from the indoor battle assignment and made some major points to go over for the future. "And Bakugo you can't be such a baby every time you lose, or you won't make it long in heroics. And with that we'll start the next part of our day." The class held their breaths as this was probably another expulsion threat in the making and it was nerve-wracking. "Today you'll be picking a class rep and vice-rep while I get some rest."
As some of the class were stunned that it would be such a normal school activity, others were already starting their own miniature campaign to secure one of the spots. Izuku himself wasn't too worried about it since he had never been much of a leader himself. And he was even less worried once Iida suggested they decide on the positions democratically. Especially since he could tell so many people in the class had wanted the spots themselves. "Mr. Aizawa is it ok if we hold a small election to get it done?" Iida inquired.
"I don't care as long as it is done before homeroom ends." With that Iida distributed a piece of paper to everyone in class. Some of the class still had their concerns because of the short amount of time they'd known each other. However, Iida convinced them that because of that only the most capable of people would earn enough votes to be considered and with that the voting process began. Izuku personally voted for Iida seeing as how he got the whole vote together so quickly and he seemed to be ready and able to lead others as stiff as he could be.
And with all that information present it made Izuku even more surprised of the results. He had somehow managed to acquire five votes himself and Yaoyorozu had come in second with four votes herself. Izuku reluctantly accepted the position as his classmates encouraged him that he would be the best for the job. Honestly the main thing that made him nervous was his remaining reservations about Yaoyorozu, but he would wait a bit longer before he assumed anything about her.
With that the rest of the day proceeded rather uneventfully from there. The pros still placed a high amount of value in making sure that they were educated well and eventually they made it all the way to lunchtime. Izuku's small group that he arrived with had seemingly multiplied through the first part of the day. His once small group had come to encompass almost half of the class. They were currently talking about the election from earlier in the day.
"Honestly I don't really care who voted for me, I just want to make sure I live up to everyone's expectations." Izuku said.
"It is comments like that which make me believe we made the correct decision in making you class rep, Midoriya." Iida began. "You possess many of the same qualities I admire in my brother Tensei, he is actually the pro hero Ingenium and he has over 65 sidekicks." That comment starstruck the table as many of them had heard of Ingenium and they had his brother among them. Izuku was flattered to have been compared to such an established pro hero.
As the conversation began to pick up, suddenly an alarm flared. All the students in the cafeteria began scrambling to escape until Iida caught one of the upperclassmen by the arm. They explained that the alarm was caused by an intruder entering the campus.
With that Izuku's group got up and moving and made their way into the hall only to get slammed against the wall from various angles. At this rate someone was going to get seriously hurt. That's when Izuku noticed Iida signaling at him to look out the window, and what he saw was disappointing. The way everyone was reacting you would think it was a villain attack, however it turned out to be reporters already getting repelled by the pros. With that his course of action was decided and he used his flames to make a big 'X' in front of the group of rampaging students which seemed to get their attention. With that settled, Izuku spoke to the group.
"Honestly you guys should be ashamed of yourselves, it's just the fucking media. Now act like you know how to evacuate without killing someone." Some of the students looked embarrassed while others looked out the window to confirm for themselves the level of the threat, but overall the evacuation went more smoothly following Izuku's intervention. As they made their way back to the classes Izuku noticed something odd about the gate. 'Hm, maybe something to look at later.' When the school had finally finished repelling the media, Mr. Aizawa came back to homeroom to make sure the class was accounted for.
Once he had confirmed they were all present, he sent them back to the dorms for the day so that they could investigate the forced entrance by the media. It was during this time that Izuku also took a bit of a stroll around the campus to look at the damages himself. What he found was shocking. He had seen the gate this morning standing tall and strong and now here it was a few hours later a heap of dust. It had to be the work of a quirk, but who from the media wants to risk their livelihood for an interview with All Might.
The only theory that made sense was that someone unrelated to the media had forced the gate open and the media simply used it as an opportunity to get their next scoop. Izuku looked out into the streets and saw nothing but the normal cityscape ahead of him. 'Interesting indeed,' Izuku thought as he turned heel and headed back to the dorm. Since they had been excused so early, there was plenty of hours left in the day. He would definitely go check on his classmates now, then get started on using the time he'd been given. As Izuku was about to turn the corner, he felt something and whirled around suddenly. The streets looked exactly the same as before, but the sensation was gone.
He shrugged it off as a figment of his imagination and headed back to the dorms to find his classmates. He wanted to make sure they weren't too badly shaken up in the chaos. Arriving back to the dorms, he found most of his classmates in the common room enjoying each other's company. Seeing this Izuku felt like he had to join them for a bit. After all they would be his peers for the next three years and he was their class rep. At some point they had to connect.
"So, you're sure that was him" Asked the first man.
"Absolutely that was him, I've only heard about him in rumors, but that was definitely Asakusa's demolition king" began the second. "If he's gonna be at the spot when Shigaraki invades forget trying to kill All Might. You won't have a chance."
That made the other hesitate. Asakusa's demolition king was a monster to face and was a large reason why the area experiences so little villainy today. If he was truly at UA, and part of the plan was to attack a class that had All Might teaching it… He paled thinking of fighting both All Might and the demolition king. It would be an absolute slaughter and they'd all go to jail without accomplishing a single thing. They rushed to the hideout where most of the villains had been coming in and out of recently.
They walked into the familiar bar and took a seat, waiting for the man behind the counter to notice them. The man, made entirely of mist, finally noticed them and came over to their table. "Gentleman what seems to be the problem?" The men looked at each other wondering who was going to start before one of them spoke up.
"We need to see Shigaraki." The second man finally said. And the mist man's eyes widened slightly before he went down past the bar and upstairs to get the young man After a bit of waiting, the mist man returned followed by another set of footsteps and a raspy voice called out from behind the mist.
"Who wanted to see me, Kurogiri" rasped out a voice from behind the now named mist. The men waited until Shigaraki was in front of them. Behind him they could see Kurogiri messing with the schedule that would decide their plan tomorrow and decided to just rip the bandage off. They told him all about the young vigilante that they saw on UA's grounds as Shigaraki began to look annoyed and then he started nervously scratch his neck until he broke skin. When a voice called out from the now on TV set in the corner of the bar.
"Shigaraki Tomura," the voice began, "this demolition king is a nuisance, but it's nothing a small adjustment won't fix. I have a few people that can help take care of this new issue, do not worry and proceed as planned." The finality of his voice gave the impression that there was never an issue at all. And that was almost as unnerving as the sheer presence that came from the TV. As bad as that kid had been when he looked in their direction, this felt smothering and almost overwhelming.
They were thanked for their information and left to prepare for tomorrow. They were filled with a certain unease and confidence, but with the backing of such a terrifying man there is absolutely nothing that the heroes have that could stand in their way. They made their way calmly through the streets. Their part of the plan was to be ready and in position at the promised time and then kill these fucking kids and All Might too.
Overall it had been an odd day, but with Cementoss's help a new gate had been put up by the end of the day. The staff was a bit unnerved by this obvious attack on UA, but it didn't seem to affect the overall security of anybody at the school so all activities could still proceed as planned. If they faltered at this, then it would look like weakness on UA's part. With only a small class of first year's away from the main facility and the Symbol of Peace to help watch the class hopefully everything will be alright.
