Art not mine.

(This chapter took longer than usual to get out... Totally not 'cause I was watching anime! And switching to a diff' show every two or so episodes! Heh heh... heh. Well... We'll ignore that! Onto my mess!)

_Eri pov_

I woke up to the sound of banging and yelling. I hurried out of bed and ran to the door opening it. Mrs.De Vil was standing in the doorway, hand raised in a fist about to knock on the door, that I had just opened. She lowered her hand and scowled at me. "C'mon, the other kids are waiting to meet you," she growled, walking off down the hallway. "And I already told them about your devilish quirk-" "What we assume to be your quirk, which is not devilish." Mrs.De Vil was cutoff by Miss.Endo, who had just walked into the hallway. "Oh, shut it Endo! Nobody cares!" Mrs.De Vil shot back.

Miss.Endo didn't respond, just opened a door and gestured that we should walk through.  Mrs.De Vil pushed past her and I followed saying sorry for Mrs.De Vil bumping into her. I looked around the room and noticed all the kids standing in front of me, their ages ranging from three to eight. I took a step back slightly intimidated. Mrs.De Vil pointed to me and said, "That is Eri Midoriya, I already told you her quirk and whatever you need to know." Miss.Endo then stepped forward and told the kids to introduce them selves. They started at the end closest to Miss.Endo and went along saying both their names and their quirk. 

At the end was a kid with a bird head, all of the feathers on their head where poofy and it made them look adorable! And they had red eyes just like me! Then it was their turn, they hesitated before speaking, "Tokoyami Fumikage, my quirk... is... ....." He started getting quieter when he got to his quirk. Miss.Endo nudged him and told him to say it again. He did this time without going quiet at the end, "Tokoyami Fumikage, my quirk is dark shadow." A small black shadow like thing came out of his chest, it kinda looked like a bird. It had a beak and feather like things on its 'head'. "Hello, I'm Dark Shadow..." It said softly, before disappearing back into Tokoyami's chest.

"Alright that's enough of that get back to playing or whatever you do!" Mrs.De Vil yelled at them, causing the children to split off into groups heading to where they want to play. I just kinda stood there awkwardly. I mean none of them came to talk to me or, even seemed interested in coming anywhere near me. A few other kids didn't join the groups but they backed to the corners and edges of the room, instead of standing there like idiots. I frowned and looked around for someone to talk to.

I saw that bird kid, uh... Tokoyami? surrounded by some of the others. Well might as well check out what that is since I have nothing else to do but stand here for the rest of the day. I started walking towards them and noticed that most of the kids were taller than him, probably older. When I got closer I started to hear what they were saying. They were horrible! They called him a freak and an abomination! I don't even know what that last word meant! I sped up and stomped over to them. Some of the kids noticed me and told the others. They all turned around after threatening Tokoyami to, 'stay where he was or else'. 

"What do you think your doing! You can't say that stuff to him! He's not a freak or an abomi... abomino.. abonin... aboninaton! I don't know what means but it's probably bad!" I was slightly embarrassed by the fact that I had failed to say that word, ab- abom- abon... Oh whatever you get it! The one in the middle, leader I'm guessing, laughed. "HA! You don't even know how to say abomination! And why are you sticking up for this freak, I mean look at him! He's a bird!" He sneered at me while leaning down and pointing his finger at my chest. He had chin length blond hair blue eyes and he showed his amusement and disgust clearly on his face.

He took a step forward and pushed his finger against my forehead, I froze and looked up my eyes widening. What if my quirk activates! What if I kill him! He could disappear right before our eyes and never come back! I can't make myself speak to tell him to move away or move away myself. But one of his buddies yells at him, "Hey! Ishiyoru move your hand! Don't you remember her quirk!" I sighed relieved, now he'd move away and not get hurt if my quirk goes haywire. But instead of moving he just pushed me harder, I stumbled a little and looked up worried, when I saw his finger was still there. "Her quirk? Whatever it is, it can't be that strong! She looks so weak, and she hasn't done anything yet!" Ishiyoru smirked at me.

 "Ishiyoru you moron! Her quirk is that she can kill anyone who touches her! Now c'mon I don't wanna be this close to her, she could pounce on me at any moment!" A girl with long, bright orange hair that glowed softly yelled at him. Ishiyoru turned away from me to look at her, seeing she was serious he jumped back pulled his finger off my forehead in the process. I sighed thankful that he hadn't gotten hurt. Ishiyoru was shaking his hand as if he'd been burnt, while hopping back towards his friends. The girl huffed and grabbed Ishiyoru, pulling him away from where we were. With her other hand she motioned for the rest of their gang to follow. I watched them go silently before turning back to Tokoyami.

He was currently looking back and forth at me then the group of kids that had just walked away, mouth hanging open. "H-how did you get them to leave so... so easily!?" He said  staring at me in awe. "Oh, that? I didn't do anything. It was all my quirk! Well my supposed quirk, it hasn't been confirmed yet." I replied looking at the ground. "Th-they were... scared! Of... of you! And your so innocent and weak looking... You look like you wouldn't hurt a fly..." He said looking me up and down. "Hey, not fair! I'm not weak! You can't just say that to me! I just rescued you! You want me call them over again or something!" I yelled at him, I was on my tiptoes me cheeks puffed out and leaning forward, kinda in his face. Tokoyami jumped back waving his hands in front of him, "No! No no no no! That's not what I meant! I didn't mean it, you just look so small. Please don't get offended."

(They are so adorable! I love imagining this in my head. *sigh* So innocent and cute.)

I leaned back and stood normally, I didn't mean to fluster him! "No, it's fine. Sorry if I made you worried or something." I said rubbing the back of my head sheepishly. "Oh, ok well wanna talk or something...?" Tokoyami said awkwardly shuffling his feet and looking at the ground. "Sure! Sounds great! I mean no one else will even come near me, so I have nothing better to do than stand alone watching everyone else like a stalker." I mumbled the last part.

"What?! What did you just say? Did you seriously just say that?" Tokoyami stared at me and I blushed, embarrassed that he had heard. I didn't mean for him to hear that! "I, uh- uhm... Nothing! Lets just go play or talk or whatever you said!" I shouted quietly and raised my arms to cover my my face to hide how red it was. I want the floor to open up and swallow me. Please, nothing could ever be more awkward! He shrugged and led me toward a different part of the room to do... something I'm not sure yet. Probably play, I mean that is what he said he wanted to do.

'Today was a success! I made a new friend!'





And here is chapterrrrrr five! Longer than usual but that's what I was going for, slowing down my chapters! I instead of working on a book that is read by other people who probably want to read it and not wait a long time for the next chapter, have been watching anime! Multiple different animes! Which I will not list here 'cause I don't feel like it! But yeah! Even though I was slowing down on purpose (kinda) I feel bad for not uploading sooner... I need to get that fixed... Is there anywhere you can get your conscience removed... It's causing me problems. Eh, whatever! At least you finally got to meet Toko. I should probably look up his birthday... Later! But yeah that's the end cya next time I update this book!

Ba-bye!                                                                                                                                                                                           Author-san out! ᓚᘏᗢ
