I fluttered my eyes open. What happened? Why does everything hurt? A constant ringing sound was all I could hear. My vision became really blurry and the world was spinning. What was going on? My legs were sore and my breathing was very heavy. Speaking of heavy, there was also a weight pressed against my chest. I blinked a few times, hoping it would improve my vision. Strong arms wrapped around me and there was a head on my right shoulder. There were flames and smoke, not to mention the unconscious bodies of students. What the hell happened?

Feeling the pain, I slowly turned my head towards... The head. The person's hair was ash-blond, dirtied with dust. Did the bus crash into something? Hissing through my teeth due to the pain, I looked back in front. My vision began to clear up and there was a giant boulder that the bus crashed into. It was wrapped around in spider webs. I moved my eyes to look out into the window. There was a wall of just webs. Just how strong is the web's material? This boy clinging onto me had jumped in front of me and protected me from the impact. The body groaned as it struggled to push itself up. He looked directly at me. "Are you... Alright?" He asked. Blood was coming out of his mouth as he breathed out.

"Bakugou?" I muttered out. He looked away and coughed before looking back at me. His muscled arms were trembling. "Why? Why did you do that?"

He gritted his teeth in pain, "I... Don't know either, but all I know is that... You would have taken more damage if I hadn't protected you, dumbass..." Bakugou coughed.

I hissed through my teeth as I gritted them. "Damn it, now look at you," I lifted my hand up to cup his cheek. "You're hurt."

Bakugou chuckled and placed his hand on top of mine. "Who cares?" He raised a brow at me.

I do.

Our classmates began to regain consciousness as they groaned in pain. "Is... Everyone alright?" I heard Iida ask the class loudly. We then heard soft hums as a response. "Mr Aizawa! We must get the class out of the vehicle!"

Mr Aizawa slowly stood up from his seat. "You don't have to tell me that, Iida," He told him with a loud voice. "Come on everyone, I already let the other teachers know about this..! Let's get out of here..." Before he left the bus, he took a good look at the rock in front of us all, analysing it.

Bakugou got off of me and I stood up. His legs collapsed for a bit before I held onto him just in case he falls down. "Ugh, I feel so damn weak," he mumbled to himself

I grinned with a raised brow, "You didn't think about what was going to happen to you?"

He nodded a bit, "Tch, of course, I did! But my body moved by itself, j-just shut up about it, Nensho." I frowned as I looked around us. Everyone was helping each other up. My classmates looked like they really took some damage to the crash. Soon, they were all standing up, and fortunately, none of us had serious injuries. Bakugou? He kept insisting he was fine and doesn't need our pity. When Mr Aizawa has counted everyone including the bus driver who was being held up by Satou, he got out of the bus first. When he took a few steps out, a thick, string-like substance was suddenly shot from the top of the bus and wrapped around Mr Aizawa's eyes. What the hell? There was a villain outside and they know about his quirk. Oh god.
