Kyoko Shinso groaned as a breeze sent her umbrella lopsided again. The sun touched her pale skin, and she shifted over the towel to keep from burning. This trip to the beach was supposed to help with quirk training, but it clearly was geared more toward a vacation. Kyoko buried her face deeper into her book, hoping that no more sand would get into her eyes, despite wearing sunglasses.

The other U.A. classmates were loud, especially Raidon Kaminari. But, Kyoko was the most used to him, considering they'd spent a great amount of time hanging out on playdates. Raidon and a few other classmates were playing volleyball, using their quirks to help with coordination. Purple electricity flashed near the court every once in a while, making Kyoko wince. It was difficult to concentrate when the human strobe light was only a few feet from her spot in the sand.

Suddenly, the volleyball landed directly next to Kyoko, showering her with unprompted sand. She hissed in anger. Raidon jogged over, giving her a cocky grin. He ran a hand through his purple hair, complete with a yellow lightning bolt, before he set his hands on his hips.

"Are you going to lie over here and sulk all day?" Raidon asked. He placed a single large hand down onto the volleyball and lifted it effortlessly. His bright yellow eyes scanned over Kyoko.

Kyoko didn't answer him, trying to find the place she was in her book. Raidon sighed, tossing the ball back to the other players on the court.

"Play the next set without me!" he shouted over, bending down to Kyoko.

"If I wanted your company, I would have asked for it," Kyoko stated dryly, turning another page in her book.

"You wouldn't ask for my company if I was the last person on earth," Raidon said, chuckling.

"Then, why have you decided to intrude in my personal space?"

"Because I understand why you're over here, and I think it's bullshit that they didn't at least try to take us somewhere that would assist in developing all of our quirks," Raidon said.

Kyoko's hand paused with a page between her fingers. She wanted to tell him those were her thoughts exactly. She was told specifically not to use her quirk on her classmates while out here, but a quirk like thought control needed to be used on people. Normally, during regular training it was allowed. Due to the fact that their teacher wouldn't be monitoring everyone closely that day, quirks were limited to basic recreational activities and not each other. They could have at least provided her with an indoor gym, so she could work on herself physically. The sun made Kyoko's skin itch, and she preferred not to be sticky with sunscreen the whole time she was there. She enjoyed swimming, but feared that because of endurance training in the waves, she would get distracted and use her quirk unintentionally.

"Monoma can't use his quirk like me, and he's participating in activities. I don't see why U.A. must accommodate me," Kyoko argued.

"Habiki? He just wants to prove he can kick our asses at volleyball without his quirk, hence the maniacal laughter. Kid has been brutal," Raidon said.
