"Security level has been breached. Students, please promptly evacuate."

The sirens were activated not long ago after Bakugou got out of the class.

"Tch. Fucking trespassers." Bakugou muttered, knowing full well what caused the alarm. It was the press. These people sure are committing a crime right now, they should be sued for unauthorized entry or trespassing.

He was about to eat at the cafeteria today, but he remembered that the reporters will infiltrate the area. That would set off the alarm and cause panic to the students, because they would think they are under a villain attack. Thus, chaos will ensue. There's no way Bakugou would go there knowing about it.

Bakugou went to a quiet place where he could eat his lunch in peace. At the same time, he starts to brainstorm his plan about the USJ incident (that didn't happen yet of course). If he cannot tell anyone, then he might as well take the matter into his own hands.

While sitting on the floor, legs crossed, he places his notebook down and grabs his pen out from his pocket. Then he starts writing all the important events he remembered from reading the manga. And once he is done, he starts thinking of a plan on how to deal with the villain attack in USJ. In the manga, they weren't prepared at all from the attack. Deku broke his fingers and Aizawa-sensei got injured very badly. Most students were unharmed, but what happened was still disastrous.

Bakugou can't warn All Might even if he wants to. He'll just risk his throat getting ripped off. Heck, he'll lose his voice before he has the chance.

Talking and writing won't work either. He even tried sign language, but the results were devastating. He could've sworn he felt all of his fingers break from the attempt. He had it checked to Recovery Girl. But strangely, she didn't find anything broken.

Basically, Bakugou's knowledge about the story is useless. He can't even warn anyone. How is he supposed to do this on his own?

"Fuck this shit. I hate this universe." Bakugou clicks his tongue and grabs out the manga.

He reread the part about U.S.J again, in case he had missed something.

As Bakugou reads the part where Deku and their two classmates are stuck in a boat, being surrounded by villains, he mutters out another curse. In here, Deku mentioned something about the press. He suspected that this was a cover up for the villains to get information in UA.

"The break in of the press had already started. The villains probably got the information that they needed." Bakugou said to no one in particular. Even if he did have time to look for them, it will be hard to scan them one by one.

Bakugou ripped off the pages he had written on and crumpled them. He knew that no one would be able to read this anyway, but to be safe, he used his explosions to destroy all of them.

He stood up from the floor and packed all of his things.

Once he arrived near the entrance of their classroom. Someone suddenly spoke behind him.

"Oh? What's this? A manga...?"

Upon hearing that statement, Bakugou felt confused at first. He turned around towards the source of the voice.

He saw a boy with blonde hair, picking up the manga that was laying on the floor.

His eyes narrowed. For some reason, this guy is familiar.

But where could he have seen him? He's pretty sure he hasn't met him in his entire life.

"Hm. Is this yours?" the blonde boy asked. He raised his head up to look at the person in front of him. His expression suddenly changed, recognition flashed in his eyes the moment he saw Bakugou. "Oh? I know you. Aren't you that guy from the Sludge incident?" he looked at him in surprise.
