Strength Doesn't Make a Hero || MHA OC (Book 1)

Ch. 3: Every Vote Counts!

"You all need to pick a class representative," Mr. Aizawa stated.

"Pick me guy! I wanna be class rep!" Kirishima shot up from his seat.

"I'll take it!" Kaminari, sitting in front of Kirishima, shouted.

"You're gonna need me," Jiro said raising her hand.

"Someone with style should-"

"Pick me! I'm totally the right pick!" Ashido shouted waving her hands in the air.

Ryuzaki didn't even try to get anyone's attention. They already had enough of their brain's-space being taken up from the worry of them not being able to use their quirk for very long. They didn't want to have to worry about all the different duties that a class rep would have to go through. As soon as everyone settled down, the voting began.

Ryuzaki thought about it long and hard. They barely knew most of their classmates. Heck! They only knew a couple of their names. Then, they remembered the Apprehension Test they had taken in the first day of school.

"Let's see... Kirishima... Ashido... Iida... Bakugo..." Ryuzaki tried the best to remember all the names of their classmates.

"Momo Yaoyorozu was the only one intelligent enough to be able to see through Aizawa's lies." Ryuzaki thought to themself.

"She also seemed to know what she was talking about when we were asked about our fighting strategies during battle training"

After a couple of minutes, the results were shown on a monitor. Midoriya had gotten 3 votes, and Yaoyorozu had gotten 3 as well, one of which, came from Ryuzaki.

They had voted for Momo Yaoyorozu.

"Oh great, 'seems like we have a tie," Mr. Aizawa said sarcastically.

"Okay, idiots! WHO VOTED FOR HIM!?" Bakugo yelled, making Ryuzaki slightly jump.

"What? Did you actually think anyone would vote for you?" A kid with black hair mockingly asked him.

"Um, what are we going to do about the tie, Mr. Aizawa?" Ryuzaki asked.

"I'd say to just go off Entrance Exams scores, but since Yaoyorozu got in through just recommendations, I guess Midoriya get's the upper hand with his score from the Entrance Exam," Mr. Aizawa said.

"So...?" Ashido asked.

"This means Midoriya gets to be Class Representative, and the Deputy is Yaoyorozu," Mr. Aizawa stated.

It was now lunchtime, and Ryuzaki didn't quite know where to sit. They looked around for a bit, and a familiar redhead caught their eye.

"Kirishima!" They thought proudly to themself for remembering, "Wait a minute..." They squinted getting a better look at the layout of his table, "Would I be interrupting something if I sat with him?" They contemplated sitting there, not wanting just to butt into his conversation with another golden blond boy, and possibly make things awkward.

After hyping themself up so to not look so nervous, they finally went for it. "Hi," they awkwardly said to the two boys, "Can I sit here?"

"I dunno. Can you?" The blonde one teased, and Ryuzaki slightly tensed up, not knowing how to respond to that.

"Oh, hey Ryuzaki! Of course you can," Kirishima said excitedly, to which they smiled, and sat across from him, "Don't mind him, he was only joking with you," he told them.

"Oh, I know, it's fine," she responded.

"You're Denki Kaminari, the one with the electric quirk, right?" Ryuzaki asked.
