Nothing interesting happened for a few weeks until I woke up one Thursday morning. As soon as I woke up to the sound of my alarm, a gut feeling hit me, telling me that something bad was going to happen. I got out of bed and got ready for work, shrugging it off as hunger since I hadn't eaten anything the day before since I was so busy at both UA and the agency. Chi was already at his computer working when I went to the bathroom to get ready in my hero costume, so before I left the bedroom, I made it a point to tell him to be on edge for the day. When I finished getting ready, I went to Chi and put my hand on his shoulder, giving him time to get to a point that he could pause his work. He then turned to me once he was ready.

"What's up, babe?" he asked as he looked up at me.

"I have a gut feeling that something bad is going to happen. I want both you and Rei to be on high alert until I get back. I was planning on going to the agency when I get done at UA, but because this feeling of doom is so strong, I think I'm just going to come home." I explained.

He knows that when I have a gut feeling, it shouldn't be taken with a grain of salt. His somewhat relaxed expression shifted to more hardened one just as he said, "I see. I'll be sure to keep a close eye on what's going on around the house. I'll also send a text right away to Rei, telling him to be careful too."

"Yeah, I'm sure he'll be safe since he's back on I-island, but you can't be too sure."

"Right."

I sighed as I took my hand off of his shoulder, "Well then, I guess I better be going. I'll probably call you during my lunch break to see if anything has popped up by then."

He nodded his head once, "Okay." I then bent down to kiss him. After that he said, "I love you."

"You too." I said as I stood back up and started for our room door.

When I got down to the front door, I put my boots on before I teleported to the school. I was planning on taking the car, but Chi said earlier that he needed the car that day for something, which he didn't say what. I just left it be since I thought that it was going to be something for his work as usual. As I walked along, the feeling seemed to get worse since I was no longer back at the house. I crossed my arms as if I was trying to comfort myself of the feeling. Once I got to my desk, I shoved my purse and backpack that held a few papers and books under my desk before I took a seat on my chair. I tried to keep my attention on some sort of work that I had to do, but my mind kept on wandering. I kept thinking of things that may happen as to why I had the lingering feeling of doom. I ended up just sitting there with a knee bouncing and biting my nails.

At the time, homeroom just ended, so Aizawa came back to the teachers office, while a couple others stopped by to gather stuff off their desk to start their class. Aizawa noticed that I was a little frazzled and asked, "Is everything alright?"

In a worried tone, I replied, "I have this horrible gut feeling. I don't know what it is, and that worries me even more."

"Do you have to teleport somewhere?"

I shook my head, "No, I don't sense that I have to be anywhere."

He then hummed as he thought about it. "Do you know where the thing is going to happen?"

"That's another thing, I don't know where it's going to happen."

"Well, " he started, "I guess you're going to have to keep an eye out for something odd."

I then said under my breath, "Yeah, I guess I will."

After an hour passed, the gut feeling got so bad that I started to feel somewhat nauseous. I started to bounce both of my knees, tap my fingers on my desk, and just couldn't sit still at all in general. I even started to check my phone many times, trying to see if Chi or anyone had texted me; no one had.
