School Day
It was a school day which meant waking up and going to UA.
Mal
Morning, guys! ~entered the common room dressed in her uniform~
Momo
Good morning, Okumura-san.
Mal
~Flashed them a small smile~
There were these two along with Deku, Ochaco and Tsu-chan eating breakfast.
Deku
Lida, Tokoyami, Aoyama and Mineta already went to UA.
Mal
Okay, I get why for three of them but, Mineta???
Shoto
He is just trying to stay with Lida for as long as possible afraid from Bakugo.
Ochaco
Well, he did yell saying Bakugo is afraid from girls and especially from you and Mina to all the class, yesterday. ~laughs~
Mal
hahaha...rest in hell, Mineta.
Bakugo
Shut it, Shitty Hair!
Kirishima
Oh! Come on Bakubro!!! ~complained and a bit annoyed~
Everyone turned to see the two that just came.
Mal
Cool, Kirishima is trying to tell you not to murder Mineta, isn't he?
Kirishima
He isn't listening.
Bakugo
Shut up, you too small head.
Bakugo
Shut up, Deku you damn nerd. Or do you want to F●●king Die?!
Ochaco
And the quiet pretty calm day ended.
The group soon went together to UA.
-After they entered class-
Mal and Kirishima were trying to restrain Bakugo from actually killing Mineta.
Aizawa
Problem children quiet!
Aizawa
We're going to start class.
Everyone sat down, obeying their teacher.
Aizawa
You're going to have a one vs one fight.
Aizawa
It's been awhile since we had one of these.
Aizawa
So, let's start with Okumura vs Kirishima.
Mal
~went to ground Beta after wearing her costume~
Her costume: Not really much of costume like Kirishima or Bakugo. But, She had a black denim jacket with a phrase written on her back. A mask on her eyes a dark blue one.
Mal
~She tied her hair in a long ponytail~
Kirishima
~activated his quirk~
Kirishima
~ran towards her with his hardened fist~
Kirishima
~was going to punch her~
Mal
~used her quirk making a wall from the ground blocking his fist~
Mal
~ used her hand making fire come from inside her palm~
Kirishima
~he blocked before backing away from the heat~
Mina
Yes. She always use it as her last source.
Bakugo
It's Kirishima's weakness.
Bakugo
not earth or air or water could affect him.
They continued on the attack vs defense for awhile.
Mal
~smirks as an idea came to her~
Mal
~Using air that became wind she made a tornado that made her float~
Mal
~making herself falling on him on purpose with fire from her right hand~
Kirishima
~He quickly got away from her~
Mal
~used earth making a small curve that gave her another boost changing her direction still him being her target~
Mal
~ She used the maximum of fire in her right then added wind making it much more powerful on him~
Mal
~she purposely used a warm fire not a burning one not wanting to toast her friend~
Mal
~but to just make him lose a bit of balance and concentration~
The smoke cleared to reveal a silhouette on their knees.
Mal
~made a sharp earth thing on his throat as he was trying to catch his breaths~
Kirishima
No....~cough~....never....
Kirishima
I ....won't....break.....~ on one knee he stood up unbalanced~
Mal
okay...~said with a neutral face~
Mal
*Why? you can't win this fight now*
Mina
Kirishima.....~said in a sad tone~
Bakugo
What's this Shitty Hair? How are you going to support me if you're so weak?! ~yelled from up~
Mal
That wasn't so nice, you know?
Mal
~replied at him knowing Kirishima was really trying~
Kirishima
Sorry....~whispered~
He raised his face for his eyes to meet hers with a smirk decorating his sweaty face.
Kirishima
~He ran to attack her directly again~
Mal
We played this part before.
Mal
~made a wall again. But was caught off guard as her wall was broken by him~
Mal
~quickly crossed her arms to block his fist~
Kirishima
~was able to make her budge back 2 meters away~
Kirishima
~his attacks became faster and stronger and strong-willed~
Mal
*Is all this because of Bakugo?*
Mal
~blocked another attack~
Mal
I'm putting an end to this!
Mal
~blue flames surrounded her and her hair was standing up by the wind coming from inside her body. Small rocks were moving from under their feet~
The girl looked scary and serious. She intended to win and she wasn't going to lose.
Her moves became faster like she was as fast as her wind. Her heat was fueling her flames.
With her right hand she shot blue fireballs.
Ochaco
Wait, isn't this a bit too much?
Momo
I'm sure she's aware of her actions.
Kirishima
~Kirishima was frozen in his place not because of the fireballs but because of his next realisation~
Kirishima
*Are her eyes......White?*
Kaminari
Buddy, Move out of the way!!! ~warned him~
Bakugo
*Shitty Hair.....* ~clenched his fists~
But No one seemed to think that in the last second Mal would send Water that canceled her previous attack. But the final result was mist that made no one able to see anymore.
Aizawa
Not bad.... ~whispered~
Mal
~Used the mist to blurry his vision making him at a disadvantage then was blowing him with punches as silently as possible trying not to alarm him about her place~
It seemed like 10 minutes had passed. but, the truth was that it didn't last 10 seconds.
Mal
~she said as she saw he couldn't move anymore~
Deku
She went a bit too extreme.
Mal
Kirishima, you okay? ~kneeled and used her body as a support for him to walk him to Recovery Girl~
Kirishima
~looked into her eyes for a moment before he smiled~
Kirishima
yeah....I'm..fine....
Mal
Sorry, I went a bit too harsh on you.
Kirishima
It's alright.....
Kirishima
*Was I imagining it?* But her eyes now are back to normal. Her usual Violet, hazel eyes*
Aizawa
Okumura wins, good job both of you.
Aizawa
Please Okumura get Kirishima to Recovery Girl.
Mal put him in Recovery Girl's cabinet before returning to the others.
Mal
they were just minor injuries considering his quirk. He just needs rest.
Sero
Anyways, It was cool how you made your last move.
Kaminari
Congrats! ~raised his hand for a high five~
Mal
~ high-fived him~ Thanks, Kam.
Sero
you just missed Todoroki's fight against Lida.
Mal
So Shoto won? ~deducted as she saw Momo congratulate him and so Lida~
Aizawa
Next, Mina vs Aoyama.
Mal
hahaha I guess this is the third one against each other. I guess you don't need good luck then?
They both high-fived as their confidence boost.
Kaminari
Break a leg Mina.
Sero
How could you turn everything into a joke, Mal?
Mal
One of my specialties.
Mal
~Started watching the fight between them that was actually short as always before feeling as someone came besides her~
Mal
Shoto? ~surprised he came to her~
Shoto
I just wanted to say congratulations. your fight was nice.
Mal
~smiled kindly~ Thanks, sure yours was too, even though I missed it. congratulations to you too.
Mal
~looked back at the fight~
Shoto
I was wondering if you want to hang out later? ~asked shyly~
Mal
~blushes slightly~ okay.
Shoto
cool. ~smiles cutely~
Aizawa
Ashido wins, Aoyama you're getting better.
And so on. They watched as Sero was against Ojiro and he won, Kaminari against Tokoyami. Tokoyami won, but Kaminari was so close to winning. Kyoka vs Ochaco. Kyoka won. Momo vs Shoji.
Mal
Cool, Momo is really back confident in her abilities.
Aizawa
Yaoyorozou wins, good strategy.
Momo
Thanks, sir! ~smiles brightly~
Tsu-chan vs Mineta. But really for once this turned to be a good fight. Mineta was trying to pin her down with his quirk. But, she always dodged and when he started to get tired she took him down easily.
Aizawa
Oh God! Midoryia and Bakugo.
Kaminari
Good luck Kaachan!
Kirishima
~just came before Bakugo and Midoryia could go~
Bakugo
Shitty Hair...you came.
Bakugo
~he sounded disappointed and sad but he was actually so happy~
Kirishima
Yes, don't worry. So Bakubro, your turn is next?
Bakugo
Yeah, watch me clearly how I'll win.
Bakugo
~smirks motivated besides there was the reason of his opponent being Deku. so......~
Kaminari
Rest in peace, Midoryia.
Sero
Yes, I'm rooting for you Midoryia.
Deku
T-Thanks guys....~terrified at some of the Bakusquad backing him up especially at how Bakugo's red eyes glowed with anger at Sero~
Bakugo
Shut up, dumbasses..... ~whispered annoyed at Sero's stupidity~
Deku
~sweat dropped at how he didn't shout back at them because he knew he'd focus his anger on him~
Bakugo
*I'm their friend. They can't root for damn Deku*
Bakugo
~well let's just he was jealous. Jealously angered.~
Aizawa
Okay, both of you kill each other and I might give you another house arrest for a week.
Mal
Aizawa-sensei is really still bothered about that small incident.
Kaminari
Did anyone think he just said might?
Sero
So, even if they kill each other, there's a possibility that he won't.
Both of them replied in union.
Mal
he might have said all might.
Kaminari
See, at least someone can get my jokes.
Mina
I didn't know why I knew they'd say that.
Kaminari
~side-hugged Mal and so did she~
Bakugo
All of you SHUT UP!!! ~finally he yelled angered at them not paying attention to his fight~
As usually, their fight couldn't get any more dramatic than any other one.
Aizawa
Bakugo wins. Good job all of you.
Kirishima
That was so cool, man!
Bakugo
Did you doubt it!? ~yelled~
Aizawa
Well, let's get back inside.
-In the boys changing room-
Shoto
What's your relationship with Mal?
Kaminari
Mmmm? What kind of question is that?
Shoto
Are you close friends?
Kaminari
Aaah! nope we're more than just close friends! ~smiles brightly but he didn't mean it in any bad intention~
Sero
Noo, you idiot! ~mouthed, 2 meters from behind Todoroki While crossing his arms in an X form~
Bakugo
~Face palms~ Can I blow him up? ~asked no one in particular~
Kirishima
~tried not to encourage Bakugo's thought~
Shoto
Oh, I see. ~sounded disappointed~
Kaminari
~understood finally seeing his friends and the reaction of Todoroki~
Kaminari
Wait! No, No, No. Not close like that. ~panicked for a second~
Kaminari
We're just best friends almost like a brother and his little sister.
Shoto
Oh, Okay. ~tried to hide a small smile~
Kaminari
~noticed it~ ~sighs in relief~
Kaminari
You don't have to feel threatened by me. ~put his hand on his shoulder~
Kaminari
~went besides the other boys~
Kaminari
~sighs in relief again~ That was close for a minute.
Kaminari
Well, I'm going now. See you, in class guys.
Sero
Okay. Wait, I'm coming too.
They two exited leaving behind Bakugo and kirishima.
Bakugo
Today, is going to suck! ~complained~
Bakugo
Mmmm? ~saw as Kirishima was looking down a bit thinking about something~
Bakugo
~was a bit annoyed because he was being ignored~
Kirishima
Uh? Yes, Bakubro?
Bakugo
Tch, nothing. But if there's something bothering you just say it like you do always!
Bakugo
~he instinctively got angry not being used to Kirishima not being the one to make a conversation~
Kirishima
hahaha sorry bro. But Thanks at that time.
Bakugo
~knew what he was talking about~ I don't know what you're talking about.
Kirishima
Well, it's alright. But also sorry about not meeting your standards.
Bakugo
*hugh?* Wait, seriously what are you talking about? ~this time he was truly dumbfounded~
Kirishima
I'm still not strong enough to support you. I have to get stronger because I want to fight by your side. I'm still weak.
Bakugo
Kirishima. ~called him not meeting his eyes~
Bakugo
Don't you ever say something that isn't true, again. ~he looked in his eyes after he said that sentence and there was nothing on his face except seriousness mixed with something else~
Bakugo
You just will never get enough of wanting to be stronger.
Bakugo
So next time, remember that you're worthy of supporting me.
Kirishima
~Was completely speechless~
Bakugo
ANYWAYS! I'M GOING!!! ~felt embarrassed saying these words out loud, and feeling like something changed inside of him~
Bakugo Katuski, the person that won't show mercy to anyone that crosses his path.
That had no difference between an extra and his classmates.
The one that refused Deku's helping hand because of his big ego.
Somewhere between these few months, Something changed in him. His heart tightened but his spirit cracked at the fall of his favorite Hero.
Yet, he still didn't know why he felt this way. At first, he felt warmth that made him smile secretly sincerely for the first time.
And the one that bought to his heart that warmth was none other than Kirishima Eijiro
Before that warmth grew and rose to make him smile, laugh, to want to be part of a group.
In middle school he hang with people, but it didn't feel the same. It was because he was always settled to be the best. He was always the leader.
Even if a small argument happened, he didn't win it but was given the title to be right. Everything was ready for him.
He always used to feel empty. And that emptiness was cold inside for too long. A smirk full of pride. A smirk with no smiles.
But He was happier now. Even though he wasn't going to say it out loud. He was grateful he has them. Every one of them.
No matter how much he calls them 'idiots' 'dumbasses' 'stupid' and with his special nickname to each one of them, There was something clear like crystal to him.
They aren't extras anymore.
But there was something else he didn't expect. That warmth started burning him more each day. Especially because of someone very special person to him.
Bakugo
~blushes. but, it was hidden from the red haired boy~
Kirishima
Wait for me! Bakugo!
Kirishima
~went after him~
While with the other boys, Kaminari and Sero were separated because the yellow haired boy wanted to go to the toilet.
While Mina and Mal were on their way to class.
Kaminari
~was walking, but was stopped because someone came crossed his path~
Some random 2 year boy.
Oooooooooh! Look what we have here. If it isn't UA's biggest loser.
Kaminari
*Great!* ~thought sarcastically~
Some random 2 year boy.
Watch where you're going. Don't want your stupidity to influence me.
Kaminari
~rolls his eyes~ At least I know I won't be a jerk like you.
Kaminari
*Thanks Mal for that comeback at Bakugo*
Some random 2 year boy.
What do you think you are little fly.....? ~grabbed Kaminari's collar~
Kaminari
~Started coughing realising what happened~
Kaminari
*I can't...breathe...I...*
Kaminari
I... ~he weakly could speak~
Some random 2 year boy.
What now little fly? You afraid? Where's mommy to protect you?
Some random 2 year boy.
Pathetic, And you belong to the best class of first years in the best school for pro heroes.
Some random 2 year boy.
You don't even have the right to breathe here. You're intoxicating the air I breathe, so you deserve the same.
In a split of a second as the second year boy was going to laugh, he was being punched by someone he couldn't see.
Mina
Come on, I don't feel like I improved like everyone else. I won against Aoyama since our first battle. I want a new opponent.
Mal
I won't say, I get you but. I knew it was really frustrating you.
Mal
~Eyes widened for a second as she felt something different with the air~
Mina
~cough~ I ~cough~ can't ~cough~
Mal
~used her quirk to fresh the air for Mina~
Mina
~calmed down a bit~ What was that? It's intoxicating more than garbage.
Mal
It's a quirk be careful. I'll take a look.
Mina
How did you-? ~was cut off quickly by the other girl~
Mal
Knowledge that's part of my quirk.
Mina
ooooh, Okay wait for me.
Mina
~Held her breaths as she stopped again~
Mina and Mal came across the scene between the bully and their dear friend.
Mal
~Angered, without thinking instinctively used her quirk specially wind making her in a millisecond punch the older guy~
Mal
Kaminari, Are you okay? ~grabbed the body of his that almost collapsed on the ground~
Kaminari
~His eyes fought so hard to meet hers and for a small instant he thought he would've died without seeing her face for one more time~
Mal
~she put her hand on his face like an oxygen mask and felt as his breathing returned to normal~
Mina
Denki! ~Mina came besides her and it was when she was entrusted by the girl about his safety~
Some random 2 year boy.
How dare you, you brat?!
Some random 2 year boy.
~stood up~
Mal
~grabbed his collar and punched him again which was something he didn't expect to happen again~
Some random 2 year boy.
That's it! Not because you're a girl and a first year, I'll go easy on you!
Some random 2 year boy.
Are you trying to pick a fight with me?!
Some random 2 year boy.
~he was hot-headed~
Some random 2 year boy.
~He used his quirk much more powerful that brought Mina on her knees and maybe that whole corridor was affected~
Mal
Mina ~cough~ Damn you. ~used the wind part so strong to get Mina and kaminari away from them making her unfocused at her opponent~
Mal
~was lucky she held her breath for half a minute seeing she was taken back by Mina~
Some random 2 year boy.
~Attacked her once, twice, thrice in a row which made her fall on the ground just before his feet~
Some random 2 year boy.
That's where you belong you and him, under my feet.
But, unknowingly to him, He made a huge mistake not knowing her quirk and underestimating her abilities.
Mal
~secretly putting her palm on her face as he could only see her back from above~
Some random 2 year boy.
~He lifted his right foot meaning to press it on her body comparing her to what he said~
Mal
~Before his foot touched her, she held his ankle stopping it with her left hand, then soon made her body turn reversing her legs swinging them to accidently bring down his other leg that was still on the ground~
Some random 2 year boy.
~he fell down on his back seeing how unbalanced she made him~
Ironically, the magic turned on the magician.
Mal had her grip on his neck and she was using her weight that was pining him on his place, nowhere to escape.
Mal
Deactivate your quirk now!
Some random 2 year boy.
No!
Some random 2 year boy.
This cannot be. Don't you dare underestimate me!
Some random 2 year boy.
~he empowered his quirk~
Mal
~However, even she was also affected seeing that she was too close to the center and her hands being occupied by taking him down~
Mal
People are going to be Killed! Damn you!
Mal
~ She gave up on him and it was when she saw the window in the corridor~
Even though she didn't want to let him go, she knew she had to.
To use both her arms. No, Almost all her body was absorbing the toxicity of the air that he was releasing.
It was too strong on her. Way past what she could take but she didn't stop. She kept absorbing it till she couldn't feel as her legs held her body till she make it to the window.
Mal
~barely opened it releasing the toxic gaz~
Mal
~she was leaning on the wall using it as a support to her body~
She could feel him standing up and coming after her from behind her back. Yet, she couldn't move anymore.
Mal
~could only turn her head to see~
Kirishima's back met her as he blocked an attack.
Bakugo
~used his quirk sending an attack at the random boy~
Mal
Bullied Kaminari, the one intoxicating the air, and an arrogant second year. ~she couldn't say it in any higher tone than a whisper as she sat to rest~
Kirishima
Bullied Kaminari?
Bakugo
~Bakugo turned with a face that was scarier than his usual first scary face~
Bakugo
Prepare yourself to Die!
Bakugo
Shitty Hair, get her out of here and leave this to me.
Kirishima did as Bakugo said knowing he was fully capable of taking him down.
Mal
Thanks, Kirishi- ~cough~
Kirishima
It's alright, just don't overdo your body.
They soon made it to where Mina and Kaminari were pushed by her to be.
Kaminari was unconscious in the girl's arms that were circled firmly around him.
Mina on the other hand was on the edge of being unconscious. But, smiled weakly as she heard the familiar voices of her friends calling her name.
Mal
Come on, girl, Kirishima take Kam to Recovery Girl. I'll take Mina outside.
Both of them got separated after going together quite some time.
Mal
~sat Mina on a bench outside~
Mal
I'm going back, I'll come back.
Mina didn't see how Mal took the toxicity inside her body. She knew she did something about it but never thought it would be quite bad. If she saw her, she wouldn't have let her go inside again.
Mal
~She waved before going in again~
Mal
~found as Kirishima went back too. The boy was quite in a bad shape because of Bakugo. And Bakugo yells echoed the corridor as he wanted to kick his *** more. Yet, He was tangled by a very familiar bandages~
Aizawa
~used his quirk on the second year for a minute while Stopping Bakugo with his Bandages scarf~
Aizawa
Bakugo, I'm going to give you 5 days house arrest.
Kirishima
Wait, I was with him too.
Aizawa
Kirishima, I didn't find you fighting and using your quirk. So, you're free to go.
Mal
Wait! No! That's so unfair!
Aizawa
~turned to her, hearing her out~
Mal
Bakugo and Kirishima didn't do anything. They were just involved because of me.
Aizawa
So, you fought, your senior?
Mal
Bakugo and Kirishima just protected me.
Aizawa
Then, apologise to him. ~pointed at the second year boy~
Maybe they didn't know about it. But, actually, Aizawa-sensei witnessed everything from Kaminari's bullying to the fight between Mal and him to where Bakugo and Kirishima got involved.
At first, He was going to use his erasure on him when Kaminari was going to suffocate from the gaz. But, was stopped as He saw that he was taken care of.
Mal
No! ~she almost yelled but restrained herself from doing so out of respect for her teacher~
Aizawa
I told you to apologise to him.
Aizawa
~gave her a scary face~
Mal
He was the one that almost suffocated people, not me. Besides, Whatever I did isn't as wrong as what he did.
Mal
He was almost going to KILL Kaminari!
She stopped herself from unintentionally using her quirk as she felt warmth in her palms.
Her last resource in battles, and only uses it when she would be outmatched or outnumbered.
Unlike Todoroki Shoto, she doesn't despise it. But, she is afraid from it. Her fear never let her be able to fully control it.
Mal
And I don't apologise to people that are willing to endanger other people's lives whenever they feel like it!
Mal
~She turned to that boy~
Mal
I don't know why you're doing what you're doing. But, Kaminari told me about you. If to you he's UA's worthless and biggest loser. To me, you don't deserve becoming a hero.
Mal
So, thanks for wasting your breaths. But, your opinion doesn't matter to us.
Aizawa
You can go. ~told the boy that wasn't his student~
Some random 2 year boy.
~left~
Aizawa
Good job the three of you.
Kirishima
Wait, so there are no house arrests?
Aizawa
But, there are other students that must've been affected, Mal it was a good call what you did, but go to Recovery girl just in case.
Aizawa
Not important, and now GO! you two come with me.
Mal
~went to Recovery Girl's infirmary~
Mal
~got treated and was checked up. Then, decided to wait till Kaminari opens his eyes~
Mal
*Tch, this is bad* ~saw her hands feeling them getting sweaty~
Mal
*Why now? Please not now, not now* ~she quickly got up and went to the girls restroom washing her hands~
Mal
~she washed her face too and felt better at the cold water touching her face~
Mal
~then went back as she was remembering a conversation with her brother about her quirk~
It was when Mal was in middle school. Her first year in middle school.
It was Because she had beaten a boy that harshly rejected a girl's sincere confession to him that she was getting lectured from her brother.
Ben
Mal, come down, now! you can't just go and pick a fight with everyone you just don't like.
Mal
I don't have to talk to you!
Ben
Mal! Yes you do. If you want me to tell father about this you'll stay there and ignore me!
There was silence before Ben heard the sound of the door being opened.
Mal
What do you want? to lecture me? Okay! I get it I'm not this family's brightest child. I'm not as smart as you! I'm cold, selfish and a walking killing machine. Why? Because people are either being fake or Jerks and real assholes!
Mal
What do you want to add more to the list of Mal's faults?
Mal
That I'm the one that doesn't stop missing the mother that left us?
Ben
Just stop, Can you? ~sighed tired at his sister's outburst~
Ben
I'm just going to give you ice to calm down, Jesus. your hands are burning hot!
Mal
~was caught off guard~
Mal
How did you know? about my hands?
Mal
~tried to hide the fact that couldn't control it~
Ben
Easy! ~went to the kitchen to take the ice bag and he continued knowing she followed him~
Ben
Quirks are not just some secondary things to your body. they become part of you. Fire represents anger and hot-temper. Besides, you bottling your emotions is going to make you snap at everyone and everything.
Ben
Your quirk could represent your personality and emotions. Well part of anyways. Moreover, it's not like I don't know that you're afraid of fire.
Mal
I'm not afraid of fire!
Ben
Well you can't control it like the other elements.
Mal
I'm still trying to figure out how to handle it. It doesn't mean, I'm afraid of it.
Ben
~knows when she lies, but this time he didn't play along.~
Ben
I don't get it, I can help. Why don't you want me to help you?
Mal
Because I got it under control!
Ben
~turned around facing her before facing the refrigerator again opening it~
Ben
Yes, I see you're handling it very good on your own. ~sarcastic~
Mal
~clenched her fists, trying to hide how her palms were starting to become red from how angered she was~
Mal lied again. She wasn't even trying to control her fire. She wasn't even trying to think about how to handle it. It was just a lie to shut her brother up for the time being.
Ben
~got the ice bag and put it on between her palms~
All because Mal didn't want to say sorry. She knew she wasn't wrong about what she did. Maybe she did go a bit too much, but the point was to her, he deserved it. That boy that hurt the girl's feelings.
Mal wasn't one to make friends. She didn't even have any. And it wasn't because no one wanted to befriend her. But, because every time anyone tried to, she always told them that she doesn't want to make friends.
Usually she wouldn't do anything about other people's problems. But....
Ben
What made you got involved, Mal? ~saw her eyes as she was looking absent-minded at her own hands~
Ben
You're not the type to get in people's problems. Especially you not wanting to have friends. So, why did you do it this time?
Mal
That girl...was really nice and kind. She was bright and always thought everyone has a good heart. She was like the girl had never felt betrayed or left behind.
Mal
She didn't deserve that.
Mal
It was so unfair to...
Mal
~didn't know how to say it~
Ben
~Sighed~ Come here, sis... ~he put down the ice bag on the table before hugging her~
Ben
I know you have a very good heart. But, people could change. Not every jerk will stay a jerk forever.
Mal
At least he deserved that for being a jerk now.
Ben
Won't argue with that.
Mal
~smiled happy her brother agreed~
Mal
Hey, Ben you won't tell Dad right?
Ben
Okay, okay, I promised you. Now stop with these eyes.
Mal
~sat on a chair waiting for Kaminari while she was still in her thoughts~
Kaminari
Mal? ~opened his eyes slowly to see the girl besides him~
Mal
Hey, I'm here Kaminari. You feel okay?
Mal
~rested her hand on the back of his reassuring him~
Kaminari
Yes, I feel fine. But, I don't remember being here. What happened?
Mal
You fainted because you breathed too much toxic in the air.
Kaminari
Oh, yeah. I remember that.
Mal
You don't have to worry about him anymore. Okay? He won't hurt you or anyone else anymore.
Kaminari
What do you mean?
Mal
Well.... He actually was angry that I stood up to him and infected a small part of the school. I heard from Aizawa that there are some students that got affected because of it.
Kaminari
Oh! I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have angered him. It's my...
Mal
not your fault. His responsibility. Come on, now let's go. The others are waiting for us in class.
Both of them returned to class. And it was an hour before lunch break came.
Mal
Great, I'm starving and thirsty!
Mal
~happy she was going to eat lunch~
Mal
Don't know, Kirishima and Bakugo said they were going to find a table for us.
They soon went and found the rest of them. As they sat together, They were eating happy that half of the day was over.
Monoma
If it isn't Class 1-A most arrogant boy with his squad!
Kirishima
~stopped Bakugo from standing up to beat him~
Mal
Great! It's Class 1-B arrogant guy, too and his babysitters ~shot right back at him~ Sorry guys. ~turned to the rest of them~
Kendo
No, worries. We're sorry about him too.
Tetsutetsu
Kirishima, Bro!
Ibara
Well you seem to get along pretty well now.
Well it had been awhile since class 1-B crossed paths with class 1-A. That's why, they never thought they'd see the day Bakugo would be willing to eat with people, let alone his own classmates.
Sero
And is he with you? ~pointed at a boy that was behind her~
Kendo
Oh, yeah! He's a new student in our class, so we thought it would be nice to have lunch together. ~smiles kindly~
Tetsutetsu
Yes, This our new Bro!
Tetsutetsu
~put a hand on the boy's neck~
Kir
~was awkward for a moment before his eyes met Mal's for quite a long moment~
Kendo
Kir, these are Kaminari Denki, Kirishima Eijiro, Bakugo Katsuki.
Kendo
~introduced the ones that were on her left side~
Kendo
And, Sero Hanta, Ashido Mina and finally-
Mal was silent not trying to read between the lines of his phrase. She knew he had at least memorised some of the other names. But hers was never bought up. So, it did made her meet his eyes again for a longer and a more awkward minute.
Kir
Knew you were familiar, I was astonished by your performance in the sports festival.
He offered his hand magically.
Kir
Hope we'll work together in the future. ~his voice felt like it was echoing in her ears and he smiled in a sexy way, if not creepy as she shook his hand~
Mal
~it seemed like it was the only right thing to say to him.~
The others turned to Mal.
Kaminari
I thought you had a crush on Todoroki, Mal.
Mal
Hey! why are you bringing him up? Besides no one else heard you. Let me give you a mic so that everyone will know.
Mal
~blushed hard but tried not to reveal it~
Mina
You're my best friend, M. But, you know, I hate seeing my ships sinking.
Mal
Okay, Does any one of you want to tell me what has gotten into you?
Kirishima
I can't believe you're betraying your crush on Todoroki because a new was flirting with you.
Bakugo
Haa, and I thought, I was the only one going to comment on this.
Mal
You call that flirting? That's like so complicated to be flirting. What if he was honest?
Mal
Besides I call that creepy.
Mina
He was definitely flirting with you.
Sero
So, Mina let's bet. How much do you think will it take till he 'coincidently' talk to Mal, again?
Kaminari
I say a few days.
Mal
Wow, but not that fast too, Mina.
Kirishima
I think it would be a week too.
Mina
What about you, Bakugo?
Bakugo
Tch, are you even serious?
Mina
Deadly serious. Now answer.
Bakugo
Fine, I say a few days.
Mal
Great, and the gods made their judgement on me.
Mina
Well you gotta say, it was like you were the only one here and we were invisible to him.
Mal
Okay, I get it. So, what do you want me to do about it.
Mina
~shrugged her shoulders~
Mal
Gosh, Why does our conversations always lead to my love life again. Thank you very much.
Mina
Because it's fun to tease you about it.
Mal
I'm glad I created an album just to threaten not to do anything stupidly embarrassing.
Bakugo
Bold of you to think you're the only one who did that.
Kaminari
Wait, I swear all my pics are pretty good in your phone, M.
Sero
I guess I'll have to start one.
Mina
Well, I have two albums and about 300 pics and 20 vids.
Mal
Mina, have I ever told you that you're my best friend?
Mina
Nope, But, you can start from now on.
The squad continued their time together for the rest of the break.
-Meanwhile with the Dekusquad-
Tsuyu
Does class 1-B have a new student? Kerro.
Iida
I heard about it, but why?
Tsuyu
~pointed at the direction where they were talking with the Bakusquad~
Deku
You're right, I never saw him before.
Shoto
~His tightened a bit~
Ochaco
Well, he looks cute.
Deku
You think so?! ~tried to chill but he felt jealous~
Tokoyami
I'm feeling dark energy coming from both you and Todoroki-kun.
Tokoyami
He melted his fork.
They all called his name because he seemed passive at first, not realising that he did melt his fork.
Deku
What are you looking at like that? Oh! I see.
Deku
~saw as Kir handshook Mal~
Ochaco
This means one thing. Todoroki has a crush on Mal.
Iida
Let's not jump to conclusions.
Iida
Todoroki-kun, do you have a crush on Okumura-san?
Shoto
What do you mean by a crush?
Tokoyami
Your life is darker than mine.
Tsuyu
It's having romantical feelings for someone.
Deku
So, do you have any feelings for Mal?
Shoto
I don't know. How do you know if I have a crush on Mal?
Ochaco
We have so much work to do. That's for sure.
Deku
Well, don't worry, Todoroki-kun we will help you know.
The break was over as they talked what to do about his problem giving them tips what to do when they'll hang out later.
Mal
So, when do you want to hang out?
Mal
Oh, you mean ten minutes from now?
Mal
Nope, I just have to change, Bye!
Mal
Oh,God! ~panicked as it was just too soon~
Mal
~there was a knock on her door, and she opened~
Mina
Hey, here I am. Now let's hear what you're going to wear when you'll hang out with Todoroki-kun later.
Mal
It's no longer later, it's precisely 9 minutes from now.
Mina
Hey! Doesn't he know a girl's code?
Mal
I'm going to ignore you said that. But, maybe because he's not a girl. But, I have to ask what's a girl's code?
Mina
Of course, you'll ask me.
Mina
Okay, it's what you're going to wear.
Mina
Anyway, what are you wearing for your too soon date.
Mal
1) It's not a date. 2)Jeans, a shirt and a jacket, what do you want else?
Mina
You're really saved from me, this time. Next time, we're going to talk about this!
Mal
~doesn't like when people tell her what to wear, but doesn't hated when Mina does. It just irritates her knowing Mina will make her wear all her closet twice~
Mal
Let's please focus on now. 4 minutes.
Mina
Okay, I'm gone. But, you'll tell me what happens next.
Mina
good luck. ~exited the room~
Miraculously, in those 3 Minutes she succeeded in changing.
After putting her last touches, Mal walked out of her room and went to the common room where she saw a tall elegant guy that his back was facing her.
Deku
Oh, Okumura-san is here.
Shoto
~turned around and saw the girl he was waiting for~
Mal
~was astonished and speechless for a minute, as she thought he looked good in that Tux~
Mal
~couldn't help but smile back at how angelic his face looked like~
Mal
...You look too good than I do... ~pointed at her clothes~
Shoto
Thanks, you look good too, That's your style.
Deku
Well, I'm going. Uraraka and Tokoyami and I are going to do something together ~left~
They walked together for a few minutes before Mal said
Mal
I'm surprised your friends didn't tag along. We used to always hang out together.
Shoto
This time they are all busy. You saw Midoryia going to Uraraka-san and Tokoyami, Lida said he had stuff to take care of, Tsuyu is with the other girls.
Shoto
What about yours? I thought Ashido-san and Kaminari were going to come with you.
Mal
*Well they assumed this was a date and couldn't convince them otherwise*
Mal
It's the same. Well, you know Bakugo. Kirishima is with him studying. I don't know, I think Mina is either with them or with Sero and Kaminari playing video games.
Mal
What a coincidence! ~faked an exclamation knowing they planned this~
Shoto
There's always next times.
They stopped to buy drinks before continuing their walk.
Shoto
Here you go, your ice-shake, a 100% black chocolate.
Shoto
~offered her holding her drink in his right hand while his own was in his left one~
Mal
Thanks, Shoto. ~tasted it~ This is my heaven.
Shoto
~focused his attention on her as she closed her eyes sipping it. He found it cute as she did that~
Mal
So, how's your strawberry ice-shake?
Shoto
It's perfect. ~replied immediately~
Mal
~was surprised at his words~ I never thought you'd say it's perfect.
Mal
Hahaha, nope silly. It's good to see you love things, I just thought you wouldn't exaggerate like me over a drink.
Shoto
*Damn. She was asking about my drink, I didn't even taste it yet. She's really perfect.*
Shoto
~took a sip and he didn't notice as she was staring at him just the same way he did before to her, with the same stars twinkling in her eyes~
They resumed walking before almost bumping into two familiar people.
Mal
You!!! Are here. What a so unlucky coincidence!
She said as she came face to face with none other than Monoma.
Kir
Hi! ~tried to lighten up the mood a bit~
Shoto
Is this my luck?! ~mumbled and no one heard him or felt the tone of his~
Monoma
What? Has the secret couple of class 1-A been exposed by class 1-B!
Mal
We're not a couple. And I miss Kendo being around you already!
Kir
Well, we were just going to the store. if you have nothing to do, both of you are welcome to join us.
Monoma
~Shot Kir a look that said 'You're new, but this is a very serious No!'~
Shoto
*None of your damn business* Tch, What do you want to do, Mal?
Mal
~Felt as he was a bit pissed. But, didn't want to comment on it~
Mal
Are you okay with this Monoma? ~smirked enjoying him unable to say no~
Monoma
You'll regret this. But, fine at least you can see class 1-B is more open with class 1-A, not the other way around.
Mal
How could you turn everything into a competition?
Mal
It's settled then, we're tagging along with you and we will see if you won't be turning everything into a competition.
Monoma
Challenge accepted.
Shoto
Can we just go, Now?! ~irritated~
They walked together to the store, Shoto was walking between Kir and Mal. The girl didn't even notice he purposely did that.
Kir was aware of the dark glares send to him by The two colored haired boy.
Kir
We're going to buy things for everyone. Chocolate bars, milk, fruits, juices, and we're going to make a cake so another ton of things.
Mal
Monoma and I will go and search for the cake ingredients. Both of you find the other things.
She dragged the boy she mentioned with her, leaving behind the other two to survive each other.
Kir
So, wanna go together or separately and then meet later?
Shoto
Whatever... I don't really know the types of fruits or chocolates your class want.
They were arguing on almost everything. Mal chooses something and he refuses to take another type of the same ingredient.
Mal
Like what's the difference between this flour and that flour! They are the same. Look, cake flour ~showed him some writing on it~
Monoma
This is a better flour than yours!
Mal
You know what? Okay, I don't care.
Monoma
Anyways, What girl goes on a date with those clothes?
Mal
Hey! What's wrong with everyone commenting on my clothes?! Besides, it's not a date.
Monoma
He's in a suit. Of course, he dressed for this, Then it's a date. Compared to him, you're dressed so casually.
Mal
I can't believe we're having this discussion.
Mal
I'm wearing jeans because I feel comfortable in them. I love this jacket. And what. can I wear except a shirt with jeans and a jacket?
Monoma
Great, another girl who's like a boy besides Kendo!
Mal
Do you want me to tell her what you said? ~smirks as horror crossed his face~
Monoma
You wouldn't be that evil.
Soon, they rejoined with Kir and her classmate.
Mal
Wow, What happened to you, Shoto? ~went to him as his left cheek was red~
Shoto
Don't worry, it's nothing. ~rubbed it~
Monoma
Did you have a cat fight and lose?
Kir
Actually, there was that kid that wanted a chocolate bar that was too high for him to get. He got it or him.
Mal
But, that doesn't explain the red spot on his cheek.
Shoto
It was too high that I had to climb on a shelf and there was a lady that saw me and pinched my cheek.
Mal
Aww, that wasn't really that bad.
Monoma
Yes, not bad at all ~sarcastic~ just next time be careful when you think you can be Tarazon.
Kir
Well, the only winner of the situation was the kid that got his chocolate.
Mal
Awww, that was so sweet and kind from you Shoto. ~hugged him tightly, then let go pinching his other cheek~
Mal
See, now your cheeks are both red.
Shoto
~blushed, even if she didn't pinch his cheek, they were already starting to be colored red~
Monoma
Now, let's go. Don't wanna see your eww moment.
They spend more time together before deciding to go back to the dorms. They were separated as each pair went to a different dorm.
Shoto
Finally, That was over! ~let go of his body on the couch~
Mal
Come on that wasn't really bad. ~sat on the arm of the couch amazed at his reaction~
Mal
Monoma could be arrogant sometimes. But, he isn't half bad sometimes.
Shoto
What about the other one? Harumo Kir?
Mal
Kir? Mmm, don't really know him. But, I feel like I do sometimes. Anyways, he's nice. but, quite a flirt.
Shoto
A big flirt! ~mumbled~
Shoto
Nothing, I'll go and change. ~got up and went to his room~
Mal
~was going to her room too. But, went to Bakugo's instead
Mal
Damn you! How could you play Monopoly without me, guys!
Bakugo
Hey! What the f●●k is wrong with everyone just barging in my room?!
Kirishima
We got bored. Mina and I couldn't continue with Bakugo alone teaching us.
Bakugo
I was explaining it so much. Not my fault your shitty minds didn't get it.
Kaminari
I knew it! Mal is a better teacher than you.
Bakugo
What did you say, Dunce Face!!!
Mal
He said the truth, little red angry bird! ~sat besides them~
Bakugo
Tch. ~played~ go Shitty Hair!
Kaminari
Anyways, How did your date go with Todoroki, M?
Mal
Besides, you won't believe what happened!
Sero
Did you finally confess?
Mal
Remember that bet you guys made in lunch break---
Bakugo
YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!
Mina
Yes, I won! Now five dollars everyone.
Mal
Well the problem is... I think he really really really coincidently crossed our path with Monoma.
Mina
Don't care, I won! On your face Bakugo! I'm the love expert here!
Mal
All of you are crazy, you know that?
Sero
Ouuuuhh!!!! Not again Mina!.....
Mal
Yes, and a monopoly money expert, too
Kaminari
I'm broke in this game and in real life. Just my luck!
Kirishima
Mal, Are you jinxing us with your terrible luck?
Mal
Are you becoming Bakugo 2? ~joked back~
Mina
Guys, it's just a game!
Bakugo
Yes! A game of luck! Duuh! ~messed up the game, not satisfied with his loss~
Mina
You....Big big big Meanie!Let me at least finish being happy that I'm rich with fake money.
Kaminari
And you think I'm the crybaby when I lose
Mal
Naah, all of you are crybabies.
Sero
Remember when I have beaten you last time we played?
Kirishima
Yes, you almost broke the controller.
Mal
That was because Bakugo was blowing Deku and Shoto and you wanted me to ignore that?
Sero
Yes, hide behind 'protecting your boyfriend' excuse
NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND, WE KNOW!
Mal
Kaminari, they are bullying me! ~hugged him with her voice that sounded like a girl on the verge of crying~
Kaminari
Don't wanna let you down. But, you came literally crying to me because you lost to Sero.
Mina
So, Mal want to play with us a round of Monopoly?
Mal
~got up~ No thanks. I'm actually going to study for a bit.
Sero
That's new. Since when do you say no to Monopoly?
Mal
Yes, thanks Sero. Mock me more. but I promise you a next time I'll beat you!
Sero
Kaminari, Which color are you taking? Hey! Kami--
Kaminari
Yellow! Geez Sero.
Kirishima
You dazed off for a minute bro!
Kaminari
Yes, it's nothing.
Bakugo
What' wrong, Dunce Face? ~his tone was an annoyed one, hating how everytime he asks anyone what is wrong, they lie saying it is nothing~
Kaminari
I feel like there's something going on with her.
Kaminari
I'm not sure. It's making me go crazy, how she is just the same girl I know for the whole day and then for a minute she seems a bit strange.
Mina
I thought about it too, But, I'm not sure what it is too.
Bakugo
Why not just ask her? Maybe she's just stressed.
Kirishima
Well, she is dozing off a lot lately.
Sero
Yes, I noticed that too.
Bakugo
So, what are we supposed to do about it? It's not like dozing off is a crime. That's natural for every human.
Mina
So, you think that it isn't strange?
Bakugo
It's natural. But, I didn't say it's not strange.
Kirishima
And ladies and gentlemen, the Bakusquad concil decided to investigate what's wrong with Mal.
Mina
Kiri, That's my line!
Kaminari
Kirishima, you said it last time. this time was supposed to be my turn.
Mina
Wait, What? When was the last time we did a council? wasn't I there?
Sero
~shuts up Kaminari~ you were, you were ~lied~
Mina
~Suspicious eyes~
Okaaaaaaaay..........
Author
Note: Last time the Bakusquad made a council decision was when they planned to interrogate Mal about why Mina wasn't acting like herself when they went to the mall that saturday.
-With Mal, Inside her room-
Mal
*Why did I even say no to monopoly? I have nothing to study, and I'm so tired. But, I know I won't fall asleep even if I tried to*
Mal
~went to the bathroom to brush her teeth~
It was after she lowered her head to spill the toothpaste in her mouth and then raised her head to meet something that froze her in her place.
In the mirror was a different reflexion than what she knew about herself.
She saw white eyes instead of their original color. Besides there was emptiness in them she never saw before.
Mal
~blinked a few times before seeing herself again~
Mal
Oh! I'm imagining things now. Great! ~relieved as she saw her real reflexion~
But, was she really relieved that it wasn't true, or was she trying to convince herself that she was imagining it?
Mal
That was creepy. ~mumbled feeling as sleep suddenly came crushing on her~
She then went to her bed and snuggled under the blanket and got her phone that was vibrating.
There were texts from the Bakusquad.
Mina
So, M, How's your study going?
Kirishima
You know, this time, Mina was beaten by Sero. I was right when I said you jinxed us.
Mal
It's not going at all because I found nothing to study.
Kaminari
No wonder, you're always studying before going out or playing with us.
Sero
Yes. I think you have already exhausted your mind in the last exams.
Mal
Speaking of studying, Want me to help you tomorrow? @Rocky Shark Boy and @Queen of pink?
Kaminari
Can I crush with you guys? What about you @Tape dispenser and @Boom Boom explosion murder king?
Bakugo
Ugh!!! Okay, but it's going to be annoying!
Mal
Great, I can teach how to explain things in a simple way, Boom boy.
Bakugo
What did you say!!!??? Small head!
Queen of pink reacted 😅 to your 'Great I can teach....'
-Worst cook ever is offline-
Mina
Wait, she really went to sleep??!!!!!!??? Mal!!!!
Bakugo
Let people sleep, Raccoon eyes, it's already ten pm.
-Yay Boy is offline-
-Tape dispenser is offline-
-Boom boom explosion murder king is offline-
-Rocky Shark boy is offline-
Mina
Okay, guys I get it. I really am going to sleep.
-Queen of pink is offline-
Mal
Tomorrow is going to be soooo fantastically loud and we're all gonna be blown up by Bakugo! ~commented before falling asleep~
