The Assassin in Our Midst

Chapter six

The expressions on my classmate's faces were nothing if not surprised. All but Jiro whipped their heads to look at me, even Bakugo seemed intrested.

"Is this true, nerd?!" The blond screamed angrily.

The 3 E kids along with our previous teachers started at him with something equivalent to barely contained blood lusts. They were all killers in their own rights and I knew that while they wouldn't kill a kid, they were not above hitting one, at least class 3 E wasn't. 

"What? Is he to good to call you Deku now that everyone else can see?" Rio mumbled. Karma, Kaede and I elbowed the girl in the stomach  harshly.

Bakugo didnt know that I was the same kid that he bullied for ten years. Why should he? I had Kaede change my hair color from blue to e blueish green (like story photo) and my eyes to an emerald green. That was her quirk, she could change people's appearances with a touch. Tailor them. The change was permanent unless she undid it, though dye and contacts still work the hair color just grows the color that she changed it to. When i took the UA entrance exam, I did it under a false look but my real name. Nedzu and Mr. Karasuma helped me change it after I got accepted into UA. I went as far as to adjust my personality to something more innocent, so no one would connect me to who I was. So no one would know that I'm a killer.

"Yeah, I'm with them. Should be fun right?" I said, making my voice a nervous happiness. 

Mr. Aizawa sighed. "You said that you would give me answers after, so I wont question you about it till then." He turned to the others, "you guys all go spread out in the woods. They'll follow after about ten minutes, so hide and strategize well."

"Do we even need to?!" Bakugo yelled. "We already know who's gonna win. Theres now way four quirkless losers can beat all nineteen of us on their own."

"We girls have quirks, explosions for brains." Kaede said. The tentacles at the back of her neck started to slip out, moving threateningly. I step forward, appearing as a show of support but really I was just touching the spots to let her know that she was loosing control. 

"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!" The blonde screamed, louder this time. 

"You heard her," Karma said. 

No, no, no. Dont go looking for more trouble you punk. 

"Everyone just go," I commanded. Some of the more level headed students must have noticed that i was trying to calm everyone down because they helped drag the blond away.

The four of us went to the bags that we'd put in the classroom and changed into the assassin gear from last year. When we came back out, we got some nostalgic looks from our two teachers and an odd one from my current one. 

Not wasting anytime, we loaded and tucked away our weapons. Karma just had a knife, while Rio and Kaede had a mix of everything. I tucked a knife into my side sheath, a gun into the belt at my back and another knife on my other side sheath. When I was done, I assembled one of the sniper rifles and handed it to Rio. 

"Same place as last time?" She asked, remembering the straight that I used with the cliff last year. I nodded. 

We divide up the areas that we would cover, deciding to draw them all to the area that Karma and I fought last year. 

"How much longer?".Kaede asked, seemingly egar for combat. 

"Thirty seconds ," a new voice came. Riustsu.

I smiled at the AI in Karma's hand. 

We each grabbed the weapon that we would use frist, counting down the seconds.

"Ah, before I forget," I pulled out my gun, gripping it in my dominate hand, and fired into the woods. 

A small scream came a second after Riustsu said go. Red paint splatterd on an invisible body like blood.  I'd felt the girl there since all the others ran off. You cant hide your presence from someone that's done it to survive since they could walk. 

"Now we can start."
