บท 9: Class 1-A (5)

The day after the indoor battle training started of like any other day, a normal class in the morning followed by another before starting the hero course work after lunch. Only today Eraser took the class before lunch, and after analysing the matches for everyone in the class he said in a grave tone.

"let's get down to business, your first task will decide your future..." everyone tensed up thinking it would another quirk examination, but that tension left the room as quickly as it came.

"You all need to pick a class representative" he finished and began pulling out a sleeping bag from under his desk.

The class instantly exploded in liveliness, everyone wanted to be the class rep apparently, bar me Todoroki, Tokoyami and maybe Shoji, I couldn't tell with his face being covered by his mask. All in all I think I've got a decent grasp of my classmates personalities so far and by my standard's they're a decent group of people.

Eventually Ida stood up and somehow managed to get everyone to do a vote, to decide who gets to be Class Rep. That was all I needed to see to know who I was voting for, even though Ida's got a stick so far up his ass you can see it when he talks, he'll do his job properly. Just hope he cuts everyone some slack while he's at it.

Why I don't want to be the Class Rep? Simple really. It's too much hassle being responsible for a group of people, I already get enough grief from the folk back home. The started treating me like their boss the last few years, I just stopped fighting it after a certain point and let them say what the want. But since I joined the hero course their belief in me has be strengthened to the point of no return, half of them are probably already making preparations for me opening an agency and taking them in as sidekicks.

Their not exactly wrong either, that is the plan so far. If I managed to make an agency in Asakusa I could take in all the vigilantes as sidekicks turning them legit, eventually they'd be able to earn their hero licences and everything else that comes with them. After that the streets of Asakusa could rest in peace and I could spend the rest of my time messing around.

Soon the everyone voted and the class representative was chosen, the results shocked me. Well only the Representative did, the vice made sense since Yaoyorozu has it together better than most people in the class. But Midoriya no way was I expecting this one, just look at him, he's shaking and stuttering from taking to a class of 20 students.

How that's Class Rep material, I'll never know.

Turns out I was the only one who voted for Ida, which I thought was surprising. Looking over at him I saw him sitting at his desk with a defeated look on his face, still he sucked it up and got over it quickly enough.

Someone ended up voting for me as well, no idea who thought I would be a good leader but at least it was only one person.

After the class Representatives we chosen we got to leave for lunch. The cafeteria was massive in UA since it had to fit every student from every course into one area making it quite a sight for first time viewers. Going up for some food I ended up getting the sukiyaki with some white rice, same as yesterday. I swear, I could eat this stuff till the end and lunch rush's amazing cooking just makes the food taste even better.

After paying for the food, I looked for some people to sit with.

After a quick scan of the room I found Tsuyu, she was sitting at a table with Kirishima, Jiro and Momo along with a group of other people.

Taking a seat in near the middle of the table between Jiro and a black haired girl, I began eating.

While going through my mean, it was easy to notice that Jiro seemed quite uncomfortable, probably because of what happened during the battle training.

Hoping to remedy that I say "I don't bite, you know" while reaching for my drink.

"I know, it's just that yesterday was the first time I was hit hard by another person. So I'm just a bit shaken, s-sorry" she stuttered making small glances at me throughout the entire sentence.

"Better get used to it, chances are you'll get battered and bruised at some point if your a hero" I said but it never seemed to chance her mood.

"Still you were tough out there, I thought you would've just passed out like Kaminari" I told her honestly.

This made her perk up a bit a the compliment "You trying to say a girl can't be tough?" Jiro questioned as she started to get out her slump.

"Not at all, if anyone can't be tough it'll be Aoyama" I pointed out.

Chuckling lightly at my comment Jiro replied "Yea I can't see him getting his hands dirty with that costume of his"

Seriously that Aoyama's definetely got some issues, he's always sparkle this sparkle that. Even his costumes a shining hunk of garbage.

"Hey! aren't you the fire guy from the entrance exam?" A voice asked from across the table.

Looking in the direction where it came from, I was met with a pretty blue eyed girl with orange hair tied in a side ponytail.

Racking my brains for a moment I tried to match her appearance to a name.

"Your the girl with the massive hands" I told her, since that's the only thing I could remember about her.

"Wow, you even remember my quirk. I never would've thought you took notice of anyone with all that flying around you done" She said.

"I can-" cutting me off was the sound of a warning message coming through the speakers. I overheard a second or third year in the cafeteria saying this alarm was for when someone breaks into UA.

Once the announcement was finished everyone in the cafeteria ran to the designated areas, causing mass blockages in the halls.

Everyone that was sitting at the table was moving through the sea of people in a group, so the small members wouldn't get pushed around by the crowd.

At some point the traffic stopped moving completely from the amount of people rushing through the halls. Because of this I ended up squashed against the same girl I was sitting next to back at the table.

She was a couple inches shorter than me with straight black hair and an emotionless visage, even while being pressed against me.

While we were stuck together, she just stared up at me not voicing any complaints. It was pretty awkward, so to break the staring contest I asked her "So, what's your name?"

Continuing to look into my eyes she eventually said quietly "Yui Kodai".

I almost never heard her over all the noise, "Do you always speak this quiet?" I asked the girl, getting a brief nod in return. Seems like she's not the talking type.

Her lack of responses devolved the situation back to a staring contest, that I never bothered to change.

At some point down the line Ida started floating a gave everyone a speech about how UA students should act, while also informing them about the reporters who broke into UA which calmed everyone down.

After that the crowd dispersed back to their respective classrooms since lunch was already over. I was about to do the same when someone tugged at my uniform.

Looking down at the person responsible, she softly says "Call me Yui" and gently waved while walking to her class.

What a weird girl.
