^ This'll be the starting song of this chapter. Why? First, I really like Eve, and this song is one of my favs. Second, I wanna give you guys a nice song to listen to before y'all start reading.

I'll probably change the music each chapter, idk, depends on what I want to hear in that chapter.

Now that it's out of the way, I hope y'all forgive me for not uploading for more than a month. And I hope this chapter is good enough for an apology.

3rd Person POV

The prestigious high school full of potential heroes was in shambles. The Grand Sight of the H-shaped building was no more, as two of the four towers had collapsed to the ground. The forest-like gardens surrounding the academy campus had also been swallowed by fire, with massive ruptures manifesting on the ground, plunging everything near it into the hot lava underneath.

The situation was like a massive riot. Everyone was thinking for themselves, as they were corrupted by fear. The teachers were trying their best to take control of the situation, but it was a really hard challenge for them, as there were over 600 students rioting like panicking monkeys.

Suddenly, a bob-haired brunette covered with a sheet of fabric appeared out of thin air, lying limply on the ground in the middle of the red-bricked pathway towards the main building.

Her sudden appearance startled the panicking students and gained the attention of a long-haired, sleep-deprived teacher who was trying to calm the students down with his fellow colleagues. The raven-haired teacher immediately rushed to her side, seeing the terrible bruise on her neck and her overall condition.

"Principal Nezu! We got a situation over here!" He shouted towards the line of teachers, who were trying to evacuate while also managing the horde of panicking students. Suddenly, a dog-bear-mouse-looking animal clad in a suit came to his aid.

"What happened to her?" The animal known as Nezu asked the raven-haired man, examining the horrible condition of her body.

The raven-haired teacher could only shake his head, in confusion while also telling the principal that this was not the right time. In his sleep-deprived eyes were only worriness towards the unconscious girl in front of him. He may not be the best example of a teacher, as the majority of the time he has, he used it to sleep to gain the energy he lost. But one thing for certain was that he cares about people in his own way.

"It's best to get her and everyone else out of here. We can find out about all that later when it's all safe." The man answered as he lifted the girl in his arms and began to rush out of the school, with Principal Nezu following on his tail.

They were the last ones to get out of the academy campus, following the students and teachers into a mountain full of trees and grass. On the way, they met many people who were also evacuating, horror and sadness plastered on all of their faces.

"Everyone! Follow us! We're going to the evacuation spot! You'll be safer with us!" The raven-haired man shouted towards the evacuating citizens, who immediately complied as they rushed behind him, following the group of students and teachers.

As they were running through the woods, the man looked back at the following citizens and saw a scene that made his heart ache.

A mother was carrying her daughter in her arms. She was not older than 30 years old, clearly attractive enough to get a saleswoman job just by her looks. And her daughter, about 3 years old, judging by her appearance, almost the time for her quirk to manifest.
