Chapter Two | Malaysia Is A Wonderful Country

     THE long-awaited day of the field trip arrived sooner than the students had expected. Early on a quiet Sunday morning, Midoriya Izuku stepped out of his dorm room. Though he had woken up fifteen minutes early, he was surprised to find nearly everyone already gathered. Tugging his luggage behind him, he quickened his pace to join his classmates.

"Deku-kun!" Uraraka was the first to greet him with a bright smile. "Good morning!"

"Ah, good mor—NING?!" Midoriya squeaked out the last part in shock as he noticed the heavy bags under her eyes. "W-What happened?"

"Seems like she didn't get much sleep last night, kero," Tsuyu commented, her calm voice cutting into the conversation as she stood nearby.

"It's not like that!" Uraraka protested with a weak laugh, scratching the back of her head in a nervous habit. "I got about three hours of sleep. I was just... feeling a little too excited, hehe!"

Is it really excitement, though?

Midoriya could only muster a weak smile. He knew it wasn't true. Excitement wasn't what kept them awake—it was nervousness, anxiety, and restlessness. Truthfully, he hadn't slept much either since learning about TAPOPS and the mysterious power spheras. His conversation with All Might still lingered heavily in his mind.

Today was finally the day—a chance to visit an unknown country armed with only the barest scraps of information provided by their teachers. A land where people were born without quirks, somehow achieved a remarkable era of peace and prosperity. Most intriguingly, it was said to be a place where villains doesn't exist—!

"That's irresponsible of you, Uraraka-kun!" The head of the class, Iida, reprimanded sternly as he marched toward them, arms moving in his signature, mechanical way.

"Insufficient sleep is detrimental to your health. Not only will it cloud your judgment, but it will also slow down your reflexes!"

"Good morning to you, Iida—KUN?!" Midoriya's voice cracked once again, his words turning into a startled yelp as his eyes landed on the taller boy.

Midoriya's gaze locked onto Iida's red, dry eyes; eerily reminiscent of their perpetually exhausted homeroom teacher. They stared unblinkingly into the distance, framed by heavy bags that spoke of a sleepless night.

"I heard he's been here since five in the morning," Sero whispered, his tone laced with concern.

"Are you serious?!" Midoriya gasped, wide-eyed. But as he turned to Sero, he noticed something troubling—many of his other classmates bore similar dark circles under their eyes.

No, it wasn't just them.

Now that Midoriya was paying closer attention, he noticed how unusually quiet his classmates were. Their voices lacked the typical enthusiasm that usually filled the air, and almost half of them had dark circles under their eyes. The only exceptions were Todoroki, Tsuyu, Shouji, and Tokoyami—though, to be fair, Midoriya couldn't really tell with Tokoyami, given his feathers.

As the thought crossed his mind, something clicked. Midoriya's eyes darted around the group, scanning for a familiar presence.

Where is Kacchan?

"Kacchan hasn't arrived yet?" Midoriya asked, the absence of his childhood friend immediately gnawing at him.

He quickly realized Kirishima was missing too. A wave of unease rose in his chest, tightening his throat with anxiety. Just as his thoughts began to spiral, a loud, energetic voice broke through the quiet atmosphere.

"We're here!"

Turning toward the commotion, Midoriya saw a familiar sight—Kirishima, grinning brightly as he ran toward the group, followed by Bakugou, who wore his usual scowl. In an instant, Midoriya's worry dissolved like bubbles breaking on the surface of the sea.
