Chapter 14 | Rescue

We finally arrived at the USJ facility. It wasn't very far, but it still felt super long due to all the noise. You happily got out of the bus and covered your ears a bit while sighing. Sometimes, I really wished my hearing wasn't that good.

We entered the building, our teacher leading us. We met the rescue hero Thirteen, who kind of operated the whole facility. They were really happy to have us and explained the USJ building and what it's for.

I looked around. The dome was super big, just like dad said. There were all kinds of scenarios remade in the building, and it seemed like there was a whole city built in this place.

"Everyone, please form groups so I can explain the task for today!" Thirtheen said after their whole lecture about the building. I had no idea how big the groups were supposed to be, but I didn't have to think about it because I was already dragged back. "Come here (l/n), we're forming a group!"

An arm had wrapped around my neck and pulled, not too hard to make me choke, though. Hado smiled brightly as she let me go, I huffed out in disapproval and pushed my hand against my neck like she actually almost choked me. She didn't lose her smile and just kind of ignored my action.

"Are you hurt, (l/n)?" Suddenly, I shot up, Hado dragged me here to team up with her, Togata and Amajiki. Amajiki seemed to point at me slightly and asked if I was hurt, I got so confused because at first I didn't even know they were there, and he seemed worried about me.

I removed my hand and gave him a sluggish smile with a blush from embarrassment. "No, I'm fine!" I said kind of mumbling, I swear Hado is gonna get punched soon. Amajiki dropped it and seemed to relax by my answer, while I was just confused about everything.

"Everyone, listen up!" Thirteen started cutting everyone off, and the group went silent. They continued to explain what we were going to do. "All the groups will be sent to a different location. You are going to work together to find a person that needs help in that location, bring them back, and you're done!" So it was a rescue mission, well, not surprising as Thirtheen is the rescue hero.

We have to work together to save someone and retrieve them back, sounding easy enough. But I was sure it could never be that easy. Our group was eventually led to the one place I didn't want to go, a burning forest with a few buildings. Fire, really? It felt really warm even if we weren't in it yet. We were standing at the entrance of the location.

I got shivers and clutched my arms together, thinking about the past and suddenly feeling a shot through my side like a reminder. I sighed heavily. "What's up with you, (l/n)?" Togata pointed at me as we were waiting for the signal to enter and start our mission.

I moved away a bit and mumbled, "I hate fire.." it didn't look like i was scared of it, but my whole body trembled anyway. They really put me here on purpose, didn't they?

Hado laughed slightly and placed a hand on my shoulder, "it'll be fine." She said reassuringly, which helped just a little bit cause she was being so happy. I really gave her the smallest and saddest smile ever, but I tried.

The sound was heard that we could begin. We all tensed up a bit. Togata pulled up his finger and smiled, determined, "I suggest one of us tries to find the victim first. We have to locate them." I literally dropped my whole expression and stared him dead in the eyes, still clutching my arms.

I pointed a small finger at myself and answered with a super dead and low voice, "You're talking about me, aren't you?" Togata smiled and rubbed the back of his head, not denying it. He was true. My quirk could locate the victim, I just had to get through the fire..

"Dont worry, you can do it." I widened my eyes, and the dead look vanished immediately. Was Amajiki just being positive? Is he trying to cheer me up? Everyone looked at Amajiki in amazement, and I managed to get a small smile on my face.
