Stranded

Chapter 3

Toshinori lay on the ground staring up at the sky, as the fire burned brightly about 3 feet away. Let's see, what do I know? I woke up in the middle of a forest with no phone. I'm wearing the clothes I typically wear when I'm at home. I have absolutely nothing in my pockets. I can still use One for All, but only for roughly an hour. That's not different. He sat up, bringing his knees to his chest and wrapped his arms around them. He placed his chin on his arms and sighed. He thought long and hard about the area he was in.

I just can't figure it out. Whatever the reason is, I need to figure out a way to survive out here while I try to make my way back to the city. Toshinori stretched out his legs and laid back down, readying himself for sleep. He was just about to fall asleep when he heard the fluttering of wings overhead. His eyes shot open as he watched an owl fly onto a nearby tree. He examined the owl for a bit, then turned onto his side and closed his eyes once more.

The owl looked at Toshinori. "Hoo! Hoo!"

Toshinori turned his head and frowned at the owl.

"What? You got something to say?" said the owl. "Hoo! Hoo!"

"Jeez what a noisy bird." Toshinori complained.

"NOISY? This is MY time of the night, brother! I will be as loud as I want! HOO HOO HOO!" The owl continuously bothered Toshinori for what seemed like an hour or so until it finally flew off.

"Stupid bird."

Toshinori had finally been able to get some sleep, and was woken up by the sounds of some chattering squirrels. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. He looked at the fire pit he created and thought about how hungry he was.

"Okay, first thing's first!" Toshinori spoke out loud. "I need food!" He stood up and started to walk away from his fire pit when he realized something. Food means... I might have to kill some kind of animal in order to eat. Could I do that? Toshinori shook his head.

"I have to! Otherwise I'll starve to death and the people won't have a symbol of peace anymore." He looked around and spotted some fish swimming not too far from his little camp. He licked his lips. Fish it is! Maybe I can spear a fish with something. He walked towards a colossal tree and looked at one of the branches.

"That branch looks perfect. But I won't be able to pull it down as I am now." Toshinori smirked and grew to his large form. "Sorry, you big beautiful tree, but I'm going to need a branch from you." He wrapped his large fingers around the branch and gave it a tug, but it didn't rip out like he had hoped.

"Oh, so you wanna be stubborn huh?" All Might grinned his ear to ear grin. "Well I can be stubborn too!" And with that, he yanked on the branch as hard as he could, uprooting the entire tree. He watched with a slightly less cheerful grin as the tree slowly began to tilt in his direction, the leaves rustling as the tree began to fall.

"Uh oh."

"I can't believe we managed to pull it off!" Present Mic grinned as he kicked back in his office chair. He and Eraserhead were sitting in the faculty room at U.A, preparing for their classes.

"Actually Yamada, I'm surprised that Principal Nezu was willing to go along with it." Aizawa was sitting in his own chair, arms crossed with his head down. He looked as if he were napping.

"Me too! That oughta teach Yagi for boasting about his survival skills." Yamada stood up and put his fists on his hips, similar to how All Might poses, and began to mock him. "It can't be that hard to survive in the forest! HA HA HA HA!"

Aizawa smiled softly. "C'mon, we have classes to teach." He slowly made his way out of the room and into the hallway.

Just wait until All Might sees the surprise we left him on the other side of the island, Aizawa smirked. He approached the classroom 1-A and opened the door. The students were all chatting among themselves, when suddenly a tall blue haired boy with glasses and oddly shaped eyebrows marched to the front of the classroom.

"EVERYBODY! MR. AIZAWA HAS ARRIVED! PLEASE TAKE YOUR SEATS!" He commanded, his hands waving around wildly. A green haired girl spoke up.

"Iida, you're the only one standing, ribbit."

Iida stood there, shocked, and then hung his head in embarrassment, walked over to his seat and sat down. "Yes, Asui, of course. I apologize, Mr. Aizawa." The sleepy, scarf clad teacher waved him away.

The blonde haired boy with the red eyes on the other side of the room grumbled some profanities, earning himself a warning glare from their tired teacher. Aizawa looked at his 20 students and greeted them.

"Good morning Mr. Aizawa!" they chanted.

"Mr. Aizawa!" A boy with green hair shot his hand up.

"Yes Midoriya?"

"I noticed that All Might wasn't here to teach us yesterday, but the substitute wouldn't say anything about where he was." Midoriya frowned with concern in his eyes. "Will he be back today?"

Aizawa scoffed slightly. "He's fallen ill, he should be back within  a week or so."

"What? Is it that bad?" Midoriya looked terrified.

"He'll be fine." Aizawa unfolded his sleeping bag and began to step into it. He gave the students their work and then closed up his bag, falling over onto the floor and beginning his nap.
