~Karma's POV~

Y/N and I watch our classmates drill knife techniques from afar, observing their actions intently. "Hmm..." I hum, analyzing their every motion.

"What is it, Karma? Notice something odd?" Y/N asks me, her E/C eyes never leaving the students below our perch on a small hill. I shake my head. Y/N doesn't even look at me, but she doesn't question me further, so I'm assuming that she's acknowledged my answer. "Well, come one then," She says, turning around to walk down the hill. "We should go introduce ourselves."

We walk to the front of the school quickly, and while we wait for someone to notice us, Y/N opens her bag and pulls out a juice box, tossing it to me. I catch it without any problem. I pop in the straw easily enough, and turn back to watch our classmates walk up to the building. 

The first people to notice us are Nagisa and a kid who he's walking with, I think his name is Tomohito Sugino. "Nagisa," I say. "'Sup. It's been a while." My words are drawn out and relaxed, as if I was greeting an old friend after a few weeks of not seeing them.

My tone has the desired affect, because Nagisa's face is shocked as he says, "Karma, you're back?" I smile at him in agreement, while Y/N grumbles next to me. This seems to draw Nagisa's attention to the H/C haired girl next to me. "Oh, Y/N, you're back, too?" He says with just as much shock.

I look up to see a large yellow creature that kind of resembles an octopus. "Oh, hey." I says as I begin walking towards him. "That must be the notorious Koro-sensei." I cut through a crowd of students, walking straight towards the alien.

"Wow." Y/N mumbles behind me. "He really does look like an octopus." Koro-sensei hasn't seemed to notice her yet, so she walks behind him quietly, hiding from the view of everyone else.       

"Ah, Mr. Akabane, correct?" Koro-sensei says, lifting up a tentacle. "I understand your suspension ends today. Welcome back." His yellow face suddenly turns purple with a large "X" of a slightly darker shade on it. "That said, tardiness is a no-no."

I chuckle. "It's kinda tricky gettin' back into the swing of things." I tell him. "Oh, feel free to call me by my first name." I casually say. "Anyway, I've heard some good things, Teach. Nice to meet ya." I say, sticking out my hand to shake his tentacle.

"The pleasure's all mine." Koro-sensei says. "Should be a fun and educational year." He sticks out a tentacle, and I grab it, squeezing it tightly. The tip of the tentacle is torn off, making Koro-sensei gasp and jump back, where Y/N skillfully strikes with a knife. He avoids her knife easily, but appears to be flustered. 

"Ah." She says, lowering her knife. "You are fast, aren't you?

I laugh. "And who would have thought these knives actually work?" I reveal my right hand has strips of a knife taped onto it. "I just cut one up into strips and tacked 'em on. Pretty elementary stuff, chief. I'm disappointed that's all it took to catch you by surprise."

"It was a pretty good jump, though." Y/N said, stepping next to me.

"If you don't mind coming off like a 'fraidy cat." I respond. "What, are ya scared of me?" I hear students whispering about how I'm the first person to have ever hurt him. I smirk.

"I heard that your students calls you 'Koro-sensei' because you're supposed to be unkillable." Y/N says while I walk up to him.

Kuro-sensei mumbles something unintelligible. "Oh, come on." I say, leaning my head in to look at him better. "No way you can be this big of a pushover!" Koro-sensei growls at me, his face red.

I walk back to the school, performing some parlor tricks with Y/N's knife, which she had given me. "Stick around next time, Koro-sensei. We'll show you what it's like to be assassinated. You won't want to miss it."
