back to 3rd pov from now on

"Wakey-wakey!"

Kirishima's loud voice caused Mai to jolted up from where she laid. She didn't even remember falling asleep... "It's.. almost.. party-time?" The boys words slowed down with each syllable and Mai looked to her side. Bakugou's glare was deadly, one of the worst she'd ever seen and she's seen a lot.

Collapsing back onto the bed, Mai let out a sigh. "How long until the party?" She asks, rubbing her eyes and yawning. "About half an hour." Mai leaps from her comfortable position on the bed. "What?!" She stumbles towards her suitcase and pulls out her makeup bag and dress.

"Half an hour is plenty of time." Bakugou dismisses, Mai throws him a look in the mirror. "For you guys maybe." 

Half an hour later, Mai slipped on her dress from behind the folding screen. "Wow, you guys look so good!" She walks out to see the two boys looking dashing in their suits. "Thanks Mai-chan, you look beautiful." Kirishima compliments. She blushes and wave a hand of dismissal, "it's nothing."

"Well, we're already late so let's hurry." Mai hurries past the two boys.

"Bakugou? Why aren't you moving- ow! What was that for?!"

The three of them walked through the hallway, "Are you sure this is the right way?" Mai questions, looking around the cold looking hall. "I think it is..." Kirishima responds, looking around momentarily. "You think?!" Bakugou yells. "Well, I left my phone back in our room." Kirishima rubs the back of his neck sheepishly.

The two boys glance towards Mai who shrugs. "There's no room for pockets here." She gestures to her dress. 

The three students walked through the large building for almost fifteen minutes before Mai stopped suddenly. "Mai-Chan?" Kirishima questioned. "I think I hear something." She responded quietly, her eyebrows furrowed in concentration. "Huh?! Why wouldn't you?! It's a party!" Bakugou yelled in response. Mai winced in pain, her ears burning from his shout. 

She turned around punching the blondes shoulder. "Idiot! Now I don't know where it was coming from!" The doors in front of them slide open and they walk into a large plant-factory looking area and Mai looks around in amazement. 

"I found you, you dumb kids!" A man yells from across the room. Mai's face recoils in confusion. "Eh?!" She questions. "What did you say-?!" Bakugou was cut off, "you bastard!" Mai finishes his sentence. 

"Kaachan-? And Kirishima-? And Kumiko-?" Mai hears from the side. Her and Kirishima's head turn sharply towards... Midoriya? 

"What are you three doing here?" The other man demands. Mai crossed her arms. "How rude!" She scoffed. "That's what i'd like to know!" Bakugou responds before being cut off by Kirishima. "Let me handle this guys." Kirishima spoke, moving towards the villains. 

"We- uh, accidentally got lost. What way is the reception?" He asked. "I can see right through you- don't lie to me!" The villain explains before slamming his fist down and a wave of air flew towards Kirishima. "Shit!" Mai exclaimed. "His quirk!" Bakugou followed. The two ran towards the red-head but the wave was cut off by a flurry of ice. 

"Todoroki!?" Bakugou called. The boy appeared beside the ice in a white suit, Mai raising her brow slightly at him. There was no time to spare as the ice began cracking in front of them.

"We'll stall for a time here." Todoroki informed, placing his hands on the floor and sending everyone but Bakugou, Kirishima and himself up another level.
