Do I Know You?

6

"Uh...Ms. Lupech?" he said in confusion. She glanced up at him. "yes dear?" Killua sighed. "I...I might've broken it" he muttered awkwardly. There wasn't any more questions on the screen, something must've gone wrong. Ms. Lupech walked over and peered at the screen, then her eyes widened. "You tested out" She said in shock. "Wh...what subject is this? Math?" he shook his head. "English, I-" He paused, eyes going to the door. "Killua? What's-" he smacked a hand over Ms. Lupech's mouth, ignoring the startled and shocked expressions. "Shhh" he hissed. Killua knew the sound that he heard, he didn't know how he knew it so well but he definitely recognized it almost instantly. It was the sound of a gun reloading. The teacher was about to speak when she noticed his tense posture, Pinky was silent and concerned.

He crept quietly over to the door, on the side where he would be able to jump whoever came in immediately. "Killua what are you-" He froze as the doorknob turned, his teacher cut off with a deeply confused expression. Then, the door opened. There was a gunshot just as Killua slammed into the intruder, he heard a few screams as well. "GAH!" He remembered the move Gunhead and briefly showed him, how to disarm someone with a blade. Killua used the same tactic, grabbing the back of the neck and shoving the face into the ground with the other hand clamped around the wrist and pinned to the floor. "W-Wh-" Pinky stammered, but then the door banged back open and there was a voice. "No need to fear, because I am here!" Killua glanced up, only to see the number one hero standing there with a grin and striking a pose.

Killua glanced down at the villain. "You're a little late" he said in that same neutral tone. There was an awkward silence for a few moments. "My my young man, you seem to have done an excellent job of defending yourself" Allmight said, patting him on the shoulder. The villain tried to struggle so he squeezed his wrist until he dropped the gun, then his teacher spoke. "How did you even know he was there?" She said shakily. Killua blinked. "I heard...the cocking of a gun coming from outside the room. That sound has no place in a school, not even from security. Sorry for scaring you, but if I made any more noise he might've known I heard it" The others were silent for a moment, then Allmight grinned. "What is your name young man?"

Killua blinked, glancing up at his face. "Killua" Pinky was watching with shining eyes, wonder written across her face. His teacher had a similar awed look, but honestly to Killua he just...didn't feel all that imposing. "You'll make a fine hero one day, what is your quirk young man?" He blinked, then yanked both of the villain's hands behind his back before speaking. "Quirkless. You'll probably take back what you said about me being a hero but I think the no quirkless heroes rule is bullshit" There was a shocked silence for about 5 seconds, even Allmight looked surprised. Then he grinned. "You are very heroic young Killua. However, I do not have anymore time to spare. I shall get this villain to the police station" He hoisted the villain over his shoulder, then gave him one of his trademark smiles. "I AM GONE HAHA!" he yelled. Then he was indeed, gone.

The other two were silent for a moment, then Pinky squealed. "Oh my god! Allmight was here!" he blinked, then sat back down at his chair. His music teacher looked slightly confused. "You don't seem very...excited about that" He clicked out of the English test, then into the science one. "Sure he's popular and stuff, but why should I be?" he'd ruined the excitement for him actually, the thrill. Something about...that kind of situation, it just made him...feel. "Allmight knows your name! you spoke with the number 1 hero!" Pinky said excitedly, bouncing up and down. Killua shrugged. "So does the head detective, same with the pro hero Gunhead." The he paused, tapping his fingers on the desk. The two were silent, slightly shocked. "But. That was...fun, I guess."

There was suddenly rapid footsteps, and his science teacher came running into the room. "KILLUA, ARE YO-" He paused, blinking in confusion when he saw that everything was completely fine. "Hey Mr. Kalo" He said, in a neutral tone. His science teacher frowned slightly, "Wasn't there a...gunshot coming from here?" His music teacher let out a shaky breath. "yes, neither one of us noticed that man was outside the door. If it wasn't for Killua, we probably would all be dead right about now" Mr. Kalo's eyes widened in shock. Killua was already clicking through his science placement test. "Are you alright? That must've been so terrifying-" Killua shrugged, Mr. Kalo looked very taken aback by his cool posture. "it wasn't boring for once, that was a nice change. Hey Mr. Kalo, can I come back to detention again tomorrow?"

"..."

There was silence for a few minutes, Killua kept working on his placement test all the while. "Did you let him draw in here? I told him he couldn't during class so-" His music teacher cut his science teacher off. "No, but this isn't a problem only you are having with him. Apparently, he's like this in all his classes. Listen Nakaruchi, this kid can do calculus without looking at a calculator!" As they were talking, Killua blinked. "Miss Lupech, I'm done with my science placement test" Mr. Kalo blinked, then both teachers came over to his desk. Killua spun the laptop around for them to see and Mr. Kalo's eyes widened. "H-He, tested out? There should be 9th grade level science on here!" Killua sighed. "There was. I'm telling you, I know the material. Why do you think I always know all the answers?"

Miss Lupech sighed. "I'll have to notify the principal and get something done about this, it's the second subject he's tested out in and no doubt he'll test out on math too. Keeping this kid in grades below his capabilities is pointless, he's not learning anything whatsoever" She said to Mr. Kalo. Pinky spoke up. "hey Killua, my name's Mina Ashido. I just realized I never told you my name" She half whispered, with a bright smile. Killua turned the computer back around, then clicked on the health and P.E placement test next. The teachers kept chatting, but he paid no attention. Maybe tomorrow...I'll go looking for suspicious activity again.
