Manga & Season 5 Spoiler Warning!
Word Count: 1000

Akari POV:
   I regret not sleeping in. I looked at 1-B in disdain as Monoma was getting on my last nerve. I asked him politely,

   "Can you please be quiet Monoma-kun?" He sneered at me replying with,

   "Why should I listen to a pet hero like you?" I froze in my spot as he said this. I haven't heard that term in a while. Shinso slapped him saying,

   "You don't get to talk Monoma. Hey Kendo take him now before the rest of our class hears what he said." She looked over asking,

   "What did he do now?" Shinso whispered what happened in her ear and she smacked his neck effectively knocking him out.... Again. I sighed as she walked off scolding Monoma for his quirk discrimination. Shinso suddenly put a hand on my shoulder making me flinch. I looked at him and he had this look in his eyes as he said,

   "We have to prepare for the exercise you ready?" I nodded and followed him to where the class is standing. We all had our winter costumes on and the only differnce in mine is that the stockings and my sleeves were longer making things warmer for me.

   "Alright." Aizawa sensei drawled as he looked over the classes explaining the activity we're doing as of today. He seemed more tired now more than ever. All I got was capture the flag but with people this time. Hopefully this will be easy depending on who my teammates are...

   I got Midoriya, Uraraka,  and Mina-San on my team. Alright round 5 is when I begin. Alright then. Everyone sat down watching the big screen as the teams themselves got ready. I sat near Uraraka and Mina with Midoriya behind us. I sighed looking at Mina asking,

   "If something happens can you please wake me up?" She nodded enthusiastically as I curled into myself letting my wings wrap around me. I let myself drift off to sleep. I didn't get the whole point of falling into darkness. It still scares me.

When I looked around it felt like I was back in the marble. That's when I saw a light. I flew towards it and it flashed into me seeing- Keigo? He had his hand patting Haru on the back saying,

"She'll get around Haru give her time." Haru groaned into his hands saying,

"That's the thing Keigo we don't ever have the time!" Exasperated he threw his hands up to prove a point. Then he leaned against Keigo saying,

"I know I messed up. It's just I need time to explain this to her. Keigo she can't know. I mean what if he really is him. If we can convince him to double agent maybe we can get her to-"

"Haru your rambling on again." Keigo poked the middle of Haru's temple saying,

"Your mind is running a marathon again. Stop for now relax then think back when your stable." I sighed watching them be all cuddly. I honestly didn't know what to do maybe if I swipe my hand through- oh it worked. What in the- Kaito?!

   I wondered about what he was doing when the scene showed me Yaorashi dragging Kaito berating him about keeping Hayate a secret. Kaito kept trying to calm him down but it isn't working out so well. I sighed thinking,

   "Great more people getting mind wiped."

   I watched as the scene changed to Shigaraki talking to a giant. Oh dear goodness this is going to be very bad. I watched in horror as Shigaraki disintegrated a whole neighbor going bigger than ever. Then the scene flashed before my eyes showing me him as a kid? I think he has the same scratches on his face and red eyes. His hair isn't all shaggy like yet. I wonder why-

Time skip after dramatic backstory....

Ok I think this is enough for now. How do I wake up? I looked around trying to figure it out when I felt something shake me. Right! Mina! I woken up and by reflex I nearly took out those around me but I held back. Oops. Uraraka nearly punched me when I dodge it and grabbed her arms saying,

"Sorry reflexes you know?" Uraraka sighed saying,

"That scared us Sora-Chan! You alright?" I nodded and she told me what I missed while sleeping and that the group is starting to plan. We were on round 4. I asked them,

"Who are we against? I can give you guys the information needed about their quirks if I knew who were up against." Midoriya stated,

"Yanagi, Shoda, Kodai, and Monoma kun." I nodded thinking of what Kendo said during the class President meetings. I'm sure Yaomomo also payed attention as well. Thinking about it now I should've taken more analysis on them but oh well. I said,

"I can easily counter Yanagi-sans poltergeist. Having my feathers will help with this. If we keep Shoda-kun away from his teammates we can easily beat them. Kodai- I think Uraraka can handle her right?" I turned to the gravity girl and she nodded determined to win this. I muttered,

"Now Monoma is a tricky one due to his quirk being diverse. Any ideas Midoriya?" He nodded and explained the plan. Oh 1-B is going to regret going against us. I turned my attention to the TV

   Time skip to 1-A winning...

That was super close. Really close and if ma'am found out we almost lost I'm not going to hear the end of it from her. I know the unit wouldn't care as long another building doesn't fall on me... again. I watched as the class celebrated the win. I looked at 1-B who was being talked to by Vlad Sensei. I think that they're going to train harder now more than ever to beat 1-A. I wondered what's going to happen from here. I mean there isn't much we can do before winter break right?
