The class continued, but my thoughts raced pasted their own words.

Katsuki... Is worried? No... It must have been a mistake, maybe I read him wrong. Maybe it was something else entirely! Surely Katsuki Bakugo wouldn't be sad about me! He hates me. He never wanted me here, to begin with! Yeah... I'm sure I read him wrong! He's happy I'll be leaving! More than happy... Overjoyed! Relieved! Ecstatic!

"Natural disasters, big accidents and selfish villains," Aizawa spoke.

The flashing image of Bakugo trapped in that sludge monster crawled into memory, goosebumps prickled at the thought.

If I'm feeling so uncomfortable at the thought of that slime villain... I can't imagine how Katsuki feels...

" Calamities whose time or place can't be predicted. Japan is covered with unfairness. Hero's are the ones who reverse those situations. For the next three years, U.A will do all it can to give you one hardship after another. Go beyond. Plus Ultra. "

He motioned his pointer finger in a ' come hither' motion," Overcome it with everything you've got. "

Lida pulled out a bottle that contained a liquid, most probably water, and began drinking it while deep in thought.

Bakugo began to stretch his arms again, but this time you didn't feel excited and curious. The dread in your stomach had wrapped around your neck, choking you and clouding your mind.

"Alright, Demonstration is over." Aizawa finally announced.

You peered at Midoriya filled to the brim with determination. A hint of jealousy flicked in your heart.

I wish I was as brave as you... Midoriya... You're better than I'll ever be.

You bowed your head down, clutching your fist hard. A swirl of determination began rising in your chest.

No! If everyone can do it... So can I! I've got to be strong! For Me, For Midoriya, for my class, For my mom... To prove Katsuki wrong!

Let's do this!

First Test: The fifty-meter dash

The robot stood, A high technical voice squeaked. Its lengthy metal attachments worked as arms, a single lens centred in the device for capture. "On your marks!"

Tsuyu was racing against Lida. You rooted for them both, as you grew fond of them. Lida was scary at first, but he's proved to be very caring and polite while Tsuyu comforted you when you felt low and always had nice things to say.

"Get set..."

Lida, Tsuyu, even Katsuki, Midoriya... Everyone!

Do your best!

The gunshot blazed the air and before your eyes could even register what had happened, Lida was already at the finish line with Tsuyu still far but hopping incredibly quickly as well.

"3.04 seconds, " the machine announced.

No sooner did it announce Tsuyu's as well, "5.58 seconds!"

I see... Lida's quirk is brilliant! His legs work as an engine. It allows him to travel at incredible speeds! Amazing! And Tsuyu seems to have the qualities of a frog. That's so cool! I bet it's really useful. And that explains why she says "ribbit "in every sentence. So cute!

You noticed Uraraka touch her clothes, but you could guess why as you had seen her quirk in the works before. When she saved Midoriya.

I'm guessing she has a gravity quirk! That's amazing!
