"Kaminari, stay back for a minute," Shōta speaks up as the class makes their way on the bus. Nariko's face forms into a deep scowl before it's replaced by a blank expression as she takes a step out of the crowd.
"Yes, Hobo-Sensei?" Nariko asks tiredly, not breaking her stare off. He gives her a small glare before sighing heavily.
"If something is happening at home, UA will do its best to help you. We care about the well-being of every student. You're safe here," Shōta says quietly. Nariko scoffs bitterly rolling her eyes.
"My junior high school said they cared too and look at what they ignored," Nariko mutters bitterly. "Sorry Aizawa-Sensei, but I don't really trust adults, or schools. I am fine."
Nariko winces at her harsh voice and averts her gaze with a deep breath. "Mom knows him and so does Dad..."
"If something bad ever happens, I'll go to you," Nariko hesitantly says, rubbing her wrist, "and because my parents trust you, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but only you." Recognition flickers across Shōta's face.
"You're–"
"Mom says hello and that she misses your weekly nutella talks," The yellow haired teenager rushes out before running onto the bus with bright red ears. She walks over to Tōru and sits next to her.
"What did Aizawa-Sensei talk to you about? You looked really mad," Tōru asks worriedly.
"Yeah, I've never seen you that angry," Mina adds with a worried frown. Nariko glances around and see Hanta, Eijirō, and Mina looking at her worriedly. Katsuki was glaring at his phone, but had his head tilted towards their conversation.
Nariko giggles and waves off their worry. "It was nothing. It's resolved now. There's nothing to be worried about!"
"...so there's this new game coming out. Everyone is so excited for it," Hanta changes the subject, making Nariko sigh in relief. Eijirō takes the hint and starts talking about the game with Tōru and Mina.
"Thank you, Sero," Nariko whispers to the tall teenager in Spanish. Hanta gives her a look before giving her a head pat.
"Call me Hanta, we're family. But you're going to tell me what that's all about later," Hanta states in Spanish. Nariko gives him a slightly surprised stare before it clicks in her head.
"Han?" Nariko asks quietly with a growing smile. "Auntie Yesenia and Uncle Junya?"
"It's awesome to see you again, Riri. Papa misses you," The black haired teenager says, making Nariko laugh in disbelief.
"I–wow–it's been–it's been so long. I'm so sorry that I didn't recognize you earlier!" Nariko exclaims. Hanta laughs and waves off her apology.
"The name Nariko kept bugging me. I asked Papa last night when he was finally able to stay for dinner. How's Auntie Mónica and Uncle Tokurō? How's Denki?" Hanta asks, switching back to Japanese. Nariko's smile falters and she averts her gaze.
"Now's not the time to go into all–"
"I know. After school?" Hanta says, making the yellow haired teenager smile softly. She nods her head before they go into the game conversation Tōru, Mina, and Eijirō were having.
"Sweet baby Jesus," Nariko says in shock, staring up at the giant dome. "This is where we're going to be training?"
Hanta snorts and nudges her arm before walking with the rest of their class. Nariko smiles and quickly follows after, walking next to Katsuki.
"Are you excited for this, Bitchy Pomeranian?"
"Stop fucking calling me that, Dumbass Pikachu! I'm not a fucking pomeranian!" Katsuki snarls in anger.
Nariko giggles and turns around to walk backwards. "You sure bark like one~!"
"You little fucker!" Katsuki shouts in anger, making Nariko burst out laughing.
"Kaminari if you continue to anger Bakugō, I'm expelling you," Shōta says tiredly. The yellow haired teenager pouts slightly before turning back around.
"I'm just joking! Sorry, Bitchy Pomeranian," Nariko says with a bright smile. Katsuki snarls and glares at her as they walk towards the dome.
"Everyone, I have been waiting for you!" A digital sounding voice speaks up in front of the dome. It was a person wearing a large spacesuit.
"Holy fucking shit. It's Thirteen," Nariko whispers to Hanta with a wide smile.
"Let's go inside without delay," Thirteen says, waving a hand at the front doors.
"Look forward to working with you!" The class bursts out in excitement, a few bowing.
"Universal Studios Japan, anyone?" She whispers to Hanta. He snorts and nudges her shoulder after they walk in.
"A shipwreck, a landslide, a fire, a windstorm, et cetera–" Thirteen raises their arms from their side "–It is a training ground that I made with different types of accidents and disasters. It's called the Unforseen Simulation Joint, or USJ for short!"
"Holy–it really is USJ," Hanta mutters under his breath with wide eyes. Nariko snorts quietly. She glances over at Thirteen and Shōta, narrowing her eyes slightly when she sees the Space Hero raise three fingers.
Shōta, a few moments later, walks off to the side. "Let's see... Before we begin, let me say one thing–er–or two, or three–or four... five... six... seven..."
Nariko raises an eyebrow at the increasing number of things Thirteen needed to tell them.
"Everyone, I am sure you are aware of my Quirk, Black Hole. I can suck up anything and turn it to dust," Thirteen starts to explain.
"Could you suck in another black hole and turn it to dust? Or would that end the universe?" Nariko speaks up with her hand raised. Hanta bursts out laughing before smothering it with his hand and Shōta just facepalms while sighing heavily.
"You've been able to use that Quirk to save people from all kinds of disasters, right?" Izuku asks, not hearing Nariko's question.
"Yes–to you Midoriya-kun–but it is a power that can kill easily." Some of the more excited students reels back in slight shock. "Some of you have Quirks like that, right?"
Nariko tenses slightly at the mention and averts her gaze with her hands clenched. "In a superhuman society, personal Quirks have been certified and stringently regulated, so that doesn't seem like a problem at first glance. However, please do not forget that there are many Quirks that can easily kill with one wrong step. With Aizawa's physical fitness test, you found out about the possibility of your own hidden powers, and with All Might's person-to-person combat training, I think you experienced the danger of using those powers against others. This class is a fresh start. You shall learn how to use your Quirks to save people's lives. You do not have powers so you can harm others. I hope you leave here with the understanding that you have powers in order to help others."
"Wait so that stupid apprehension test was actually important?" Nariko asks, making Shōta facepalm again.
"Yes Kaminari, the test was important. The threat of expulsion should have made it clear it was," He says tiredly. Nariko scoffs and waves a hand at the statement.
"So many teachers threaten students with expulsion nowadays," The yellow haired teenager defends herself.
"That is all. Thank you for listening," Thirteen says with a bow. The class tarts clapping and complimenting the teacher's speech.
"All right then, first–"
Shōta is interrupted by electricity starting to malfunction the lights. Nariko feels the hair on her arms and neck stand on end when a dark purple mist starts to form in the center of the dome. Her breath comes out shaky as the familiar feeling of dread fills her veins. The black haired man turns around with wide eyes as the mist explodes out and a pale hand appears out of it.
"Gather together and don't move!" The students stare at their homeroom teacher with confusion. "Thirteen, protect the students!"
"What's that?" Eijirō asks quietly as a man walks out of the mist, followed by dozens of other people.
"Is this like the Entrance Exam where the lesson's already started?" Eijirō continues as he leans forward. Izuku was about to step forward.
"Don't move!" Shōta orders loudly, making Nariko flinch. She grabs onto Hanta's arm and stares at the slowly growing group of people with widening eyes.
"No... Not again," She whispers fearfully as Hanta pulls her close.
"Those are villains." Many students back away in fear, shaking slightly. Nariko takes many deep breaths to calm herself.
"How did they breach the school grounds? There's only two heroes here!" Nariko thinks frantically as a large, black... thing walks out of the mist portal.
She fucking jinxed the day. What the fuck?
Hey! We're finally at USJ. I am getting really excited.
Hope you guys like the new chapter. Bye!
