I sat quietly on the bus next to Uraraka, who was dozing off onto Iida's shoulder.
I stared longingly out the window, trying to see if I recognized anything, all the while listening in on to the conversations that were going on around me. Many were discussing the surprise field trip.
Finally, I settled on to one voice, the one I desperately wanted to hear, so I tuned everything else out.
"Hey Kaminari, pass me the snacks!" Mina screeched, making him flinch but he quickly hid it.
"Where is the please?" Kaminari teased.
With a huff Mina snatched a bag of chips and stuck her tongue out at the blond boy.
"So, Kaminari you didn't answer my question?" Sero waggled his eyebrows.
"I did and I told you, there isn't anybody." Kaminari shook his head at Sero's disbelieving face.
"Come on! Really, not a single lady caught your eye?" Mina chimed in, a devious look in her eyes.
"No. I'm not into dating - " Kaminari started.
"Kaminari! Are you implying what I think you're implying? Hmmm." Mina cuts him off, a fake scandalized expression on her face.
Kaminari gave up and let them spew outrageous stories of his sexual endeavors; some of which weren't too far from the truth. I stopped listening at this point.
Glancing over to the two sleeping teenagers I think back on the conversation I had with them.
'What would I have done if the league hadn't saved me? Hadn't gotten me out of that cess pit?'
I stared out the crystal clear window as we sped past factories and fields and garbage dumps and wastelands. From tar highways to dusty dirt roads.
I couldn't help but think to myself that this place looks familiar...no. They wouldn't.
I was mildly panicking until I saw a rusting sign, which had most of the white letters missing, that confirmed all my suspicions and fears:
Welcome to Mertsuana.
I then went from mildly panicking to shit defcon 9000.
My breathing became more rapid and uneven when we didn't stop in Upper Mertsuana and just drove even deeper into the shanty town, the roads got narrower and narrower. My classmates started to mumble in confusion. They were obviously shocked at the poverty they saw: bone thin children, ragged people sleeping on the street, others hiding in their shacks and fearfully peeking out to catch a glimpse at the huge foreign object that sparkled in the sun and looked oh so similar to the vehicles that came to take them away.
I forcefully swallowed down the bile that was rising up my throat.
The bus stopped at a rusty metal gateway that stood five metres high and had dented cast iron doors that looked like they had lived through a war and probably weighed over a ton. The entrance to the Slums.
We all hesitantly make our way out the bus, following after of our strangely calm home room teacher. Silently we went into two lines and waited for our instructions. I pulled on my dark green hair begging for my brain to give me an idea, for the first time in a long while I was not prepared. I did not expect this outcome at all!
What if someone recognizes me!
What if there are posters of me up and one of the Heroes-in-training see them!
If that happens than my mission is down the drain for good; I'm already walking on thin ice. The cause my dad has been working for for over ten years would all spin into chaos if that happened. I've had too many close shaves with the teachers and students to just brush that off....
