Rabbit Hole

The girl sighed and continued to work as the fire in the arguments died down. She heard whispers around the room and squeezed her eyes shut trying to cancel them out willing her tail to not pop out.

"Did you see that bubble?"

"Yea but who was it? No one here has a quirk like that."

"Unless it was Celeste."

"You think?"

Celeste neglected to hear the boy next to her who was trying to snap her out of her funk.

"Cel?" His voice snapped her out of her daydream and she put her head back up quickly.

"S-sorry, yes?" She stuttered out.

"Number 23. Is that factorable?" Shinsou asked her simply.

"23? Oh! No you need to use the quadratic formula."

"Thanks."

"No problem."

Lunch time rolled around after a long annoying English class. While she excelled in every class, Celeste hated English. Mainly the fact that their teacher, Present Mic would scream his lessons out. She took small notes in that class and wore noise cancelling headphones the rest of the time.

Celeste grabbed her lunch tray and looked around at the cafeteria under the shade of her hood. No one was paying attention to her, as per usual. She slipped out of the back door unnoticed and ran around the side of the building. Ideally, no one was allowed in the training areas without permission. However, she had loopholes in this rule.

Celeste snapped her fingers and a patch of ground beneath her rumbled. It opened into a large crack and she slipped through it.

Working much like a rabbit hole she popped out of another crack and right into the middle of the forest training area. She put her tray on the ground as she unclipped her cloak and let it fall to the ground. The sun kissed her face and the breeze blew her long white hair out of its original nested shape. She combed the long curls out and her bi colored, red and gold eyes shone like gold and ruby's in the sun.

Celeste took a deep breath and took in the air around her. She loved the feeling of fresh air in her face. She wiggled her fingers around playfully and said "Reveal."

Two red horns and a halo appeared on her head. Two small white wings sprung through her uniform with a wirey devil tail.

She sat down and enjoyed her lunch until she heard the bells brisk ring sound throughout the air.

Time to go. She thought to herself as she closed her fists.

"Hidden." She said and her features melted back into her skin. She put her cloak back on and snapped her fingers, slipping through the crack once more.

Celeste appeared back behind the school building and ran back in as the 5 minute bell rang. As she sprinted and reached the classroom she felt a hard wall slam into her and her world went black.
