Requiem of War

Siege of Mufustafu I

Ochako was sitting at her desk puzzling over the most recent assignment she had been given in one of her general education classes. Despite being in a school for heroes they were expected to learn other basic information like the kind most other students would learn in any other high school. She never did have a knack for the more complex math equations that Momo and Bakugo seemed so adept at solving. Recently though, a lot of the general education classes had been cut and replaced with more practical classes aimed at improving their ability on the field. 

With a start, Ochako realized she had been staring at the same equation for the past ten minutes and hadn't taken in a single bit of it. She dropped her pencil on the desk and put her head in her hands. She took a deep breath and leaned back in her seat, glancing at the clock and realizing that the sun was setting outside. There was also apparently a storm brewing as she saw flashes of sheet lighting out over the city, but it hadn't reached the school yet. With a sigh, she just stared at the ceiling. 

It had been like this for months now. Every day she didn't practice with her quirk or her close combat abilities felt like a day wasted. After Re-Destro and the Meta Liberation Armies' attempt at rebellion, after seeing the death and destruction their insurrection had created, and after the death of All Might... studies like this felt like a waste of time.

She opened her eyes and got up from her chair. It was no use, she'd come back to it later, for now, she was going to go train in one of the gyms. Maybe she'd ask Bakugo or Momo for help with her studies, they had the best grades after all. She opened her door and started down the hallway. As she walked, she couldn't help but notice the door with no light coming from underneath it. She stopped in front of the door and just stared at the nameplate for a while. Eventually, the guilt grew too much and she lowered her gaze to the floor. The urge to train became stronger and so she left the dark and forlorn room of Iida behind her.

She hadn't gone more than a few steps however when she heard a siren come from the city. She froze listening, then her phone started blasting out the same siren, it was so loud she could hear the phones of her friends in their rooms going off as well. It took her a second for her brain to recognize it, but as soon as realization crashed into her, she felt her blood run cold. The whine was a siren, and she looked at her phone. The siren stopped and she heard from her phone and the city alarm system say:

LARGE-SCALE TERRORIST ATTACK IN PROGRESS. LARGE-SCALE TERRORIST ATTACK IN PROGRESS.

What came next were the instructions regarding what to do, but mid-way through that, doors burst open along the hallway as the school speaker system came to life.

"ALL STUDENTS PLEASE REMAIN WHERE YOU ARE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. THE FOLLOWING CLASSES ARE TO REPORT TO THE FRONT OF THE SCHOOL IN FULL HERO ATTIRE. 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A,  3B, AND ALL STUDENTS CURRENTLY ENROLLED IN THE MEDICAL COURSE." Came the voice of Nezu.

Ochako turned around and saw the pale faces of the rest of 1A as she ran out of their room. Ochako spun back around and started running as well. The class ran through the dorms, other students joining them as they all ran out of the front doors and towards where their hero attires were stored.

1A burst into the locker room and split into their individual locker rooms. Ochako practically ripped the door off her locker and started putting her suit on.

"What do you think is happening?" Asked Jiro.

"It has to be the League. I can't think of any organization with the power to potentially do something like this." Momo said.

Nothing else was said as they pulled their suits on, slammed their lockers shut, and started running back out of the building. The boys joined them a few seconds later, and even more students. When they started running across the campus, they saw dozens of other students running from other places as well. The mass of students got to the front gates, where more than half of the teachers were present.
