An hour went by after I put my bedding on my bunk and I just layed there waiting for dinner. A bell rang from somewhere and my cell mate who said his name is Denki got up and I followed him out. When he asked my name I told him it was 'Watashi Wanai'. It's part of the literal translation 'not as I seem'. Seems appropriate, at least he bought it.

We headed down to dinner and I  stayed quiet as I followed him. We got in line and I would catch curious stares aimed at me,  'I bet they're wondering what a little kid is doing here. Probably thinking I got framed or wrong time wrong place'

Eventually we got to the front of the line and we picked up washable trays that looked like they came from a school cafeteria. The people behind the counter gave me that same confused look but still fed me what looked like gruel, corn bread, and some carrots. I didn't say anything and kept moving. I followed Denki hoping I could sit with him and he didn't push me away when I did. Eventually more people showed up and sat down with trays, one had spiky red hair, one had black hair and weird elbows, and finally, 'ahh good im getting in with him' the spiky blond from earlier.

They barely looked at me before turning to their plates. When the redhead was done eating he put down his utensils and looked at me. "What's your name kid?" I looked up, actually surprised that one of them said anything to me, "My name's Watashi Wanai." "Ok, so what's a little guy like you doing in a place like this?" I looked down at my plate so they couldn't see my face almost twitch into a smile. If only they knew. In a small voice I replied, "I'm innocent."
"What? Speak up." I rose my voice and head a little, "I'm innocent, I didn't do anything."

The blond slammed his hand down on the table "That's what they all say". I jumped a little but pushed it farther to keep up with my facade. "Denki, why did you even bring this little squirt over here? He's useless." "Well, I figured you'd want him over here than with someone else." "Tch." He picked up his tray and left.

The red head looked back at me and said "That would be Bakugou. And I'm Kirishima. "
