Unforeseen Simulation Joint

-Narrator POV-

Jirou's question struck him like a freight train, the hopes of the collar going unnoticed was shattered as she awaited for an answer, his mind shifted gears, millions of lies rushed his head while choosing the perfect one, she doesn't know him yet, they aren't close friends, tell her the real reason would distance her from him. The mask has to be immaculate.

"It's... a restrainer, I have problems of accidental discharges that can be harmful for those in the vicinity." The mastery of doing a poker face and chosing a half truth came in handy, the weight of guilt for lying had to be tolerated.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked." She saw through it with ease, Jiro's afinity to detect different frequencies, even heartbeats alterations, clear indicators of a lie, is more powerful than it meets the eye.

"No, no, it's okay. It's not a good story, that's all." The awkward response of Kaminari indicated the facade, but nonetheless, it's not something she should hear.

"I see. Perhaps in the future you may feel confortable enough to tell me about it." Jirou's insistence is noted, this isn't her being intrusive.

"Next time you pay the pizza." Kaminari ice breaker was successful as Jirou giggles.

...

"We're here. Thank you for tonight, Kaminari, it was fun." Jirou expressed her gratitude to a pleased Kaminari, before entering her home. Kaminari waived goodbye before leaving.

...

Back home, the smile couldn't be held back, for the first time here he could say he had friends now, they got to know him while not being aware of the incident, it was indeed a nice evening.

...

...

What a wild morning this one was in particular as Kaminari evaded waves upon waves of reporters, anxious to get anything worthy in regards to All Might as the brand new teacher at U.A, after all, the No. 1 Hero teaching at a school was nothing short of odd. What it felt like hundreds of microphones and cameras pointed at him soon gave way to the democratic election of Class President. Kaminari watched with pity as Midoriya was elected Class President, a role Ilda was more suited for since he was the methodic goody two shoes, he thought. YaoMomo -a cute way of referencing Yaoyorozu- was also elected, the disagreement in her face couldn't be more obvious.

One would think this would be the last of unforeseen events up until alarms were triggered in the middle of lunch, instigating total chaos, much to Kaminari's dismay as he couldn't finish Lunch Rush's food. The situation was defused as the "calm" and methodical attitude of Ilda to understand this as a false alarm calmed everyone down as he, amusingly, flew above everyone's heads to achieve crowd control.

His leadership and keen perception didn't went unnoticed as he became Class President after Midoriya felt unworthy to bear such title and steped down.

...

Back at the class, the group was talking about hanging out again, Ojiro expressed regretfulness for not being able to go while Kaminari told of Kirishima's decisive defeat at the hands of Mina to Sero and Hakagure, who giggled in response.

"You're as loud as thunder, Kaminari, be quiet." Mr. Aizawa's voice killed the loud group's mood and Kaminari's enthusiasm with swiftness. "It's time for hero training, gather your hero costumes and rendezvous outside. Dismissed."

And so they went, Kaminari was embarassed, the teasing of Jirou didn't help at all. Changing into his hero costume and heading to the rendezvous point, he wondered what type of training it would be this time, having high hopes for robots or nothing to do with fighting classmates again.

Awaiting for the us, only Midoriya wasn't using his costume, wearing U.A gym clothes, perhaps because of the extensive damage following his duel against Bakugou.

...

"Your quirk is similar to All Might's." Tsuyu, or Tsu as she wanted to be called, exclaimed in her own, straight-to-the-point, I-say-what-comes-to-mind type way, at Midoriya, who panicked as usual when someone asks him anything related to his quirk. His stuttering makes it look worse.

"Man, I wish I had a flashy quirk like yours, Midoriya, mine is strong but lacks natural flashiness." Said Kirishima, while looking at his turned-to-rock arm.

"Nonsense." Kaminari spoke after breaking free of his thoughts. "It's not about natural flashiness, Kirishima, this is but a consequence of how well you can improve it."

"I guess you're right, Kaminari, but it's easy for you to say when you have such a powerful quirk. You, Bakugou and Todoroki are blessed in this aspect." Kirishima answered with heavy thoughts.

"Don't compare me to those two losers, spiky hair." Bakugou grumbles while making his usual angry face. "Some are just born better than others, accept your natural failure and deal with it!"

"Such a banal logic. By that logic, you're worse than Midoriya that outsmarted you at the Battle trials." Kaminari came to Kirishima's defense.

"Huh? What did you say, noodle hair?!" Bakugou shouts as he stands up and points at Kaminari.

"Did I stutter?" Kaminari petty mode was indeed activated.

"Your lack of intelligence and overconfidence were exploited brilliantly by Midoriya, he played you like a fiddle."

"THAT WAS PURE LUCK!" Bakugou unleashed his rage.

"Besides, what do you know? You're just an incompetent speedster that can't even control your powers properly! This is about survival of the fittest, only the strongest survive! The weak get eaten, the losers fall in line or crumble, and I'm the one who will crush anyone who crosses my path!"

Bakugou's rant would soon evolve into absolute anger, for only after finishing his monologue he realizes that Kaminari isn't paying attention for quite some time. The vains pop like themselves are explosive, he clenches his teeth together almost breaking them, the urgent feeling of frustration lashes out in unbrittled rage.

"ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING YOU VERM?!"

Indeed, he wasn't, Kaminari, having dealt with narcissist types before, knows exactly what to do to make them look bad while doing next to nothing but simple button pushing. Instead of listening to Bakugou's mumble, he turned to Midoriya in hopes to hear more about his quirk. Bakugou's seemengly perfect bait catch was enough to turn his attention back to him.

"No, I wasn't. I would appreciate it if you do not interrupt me in my ignoring time." Kaminari could've swore he heard teeth cracking.

"DO NOT IGNORE ME, YOU EXTRA!" Bakugou's rage could melt steel beams, only the laughter of other classmates could cut through the real tension of what seemed as friendly teasing.

"Quit being noisy back there." Mr. Aizawa's annoyed voice had everyone concerned.

"It is my fault, Mr. Aizawa, it seems I have overestimated the number of brain cells he has available." This extra risky remark had most of the class in a try not to laugh moment. Before Bakugou could unleash another barrage of insults, Mr. Aizawa spoke once again.

"We are here. Keep quiet."

...

Meeting Space Hero 13 was a pleasant surprise as he admired their rescue work. The warm welcoming to the new battleground had the entire Class 1-A fueled with expectations. The next minutes were for guiding and explanations of Quirk usage for rescue operations, detailed and diverse arenas and biomes. Kaminari is excited, he urged for the day a Hero would finally help him hone his quirk for live saving missions rather than villains neutralization.

"Well, for starters, you will-" Mr. Aizawa was interrupted by a sudden burst of electricity running across the dome's lights.

All of the sudden, cold air shudders enveloped Class 1-A, lights flicker, the cold gave way to a tenebrous sensation. Materializing from the air itself, black mist materialized into existence, starting from a small dot to a full veil of darkness as if it just gave life at the plaza. All are confused to what is about to happen, Kaminari's instinct to look at Mr. Aizawa's face and see for the first time his face express readiness and, perhaps, even fear, as he grabs a hold of his goggles.

-Kaminari's POV-

"What's that?!" Kirishima questioned with a voice loaded with fear.

From tin air, more and more humanoid forms gave way to others as tens of individuals stepped off the black mist, numerous men and women left the mist as if they just stepped off a portal. Between them, one horrifying beast with black skin and a beak with sharp teeth for a mouth, it's head devoid of cranial features, only a brain was visible, exposed. Eyelid-less eyes targeted the students like a predator locking in on it's prey.

"Don't move!" For the first time, Aizawa expressed feelings of weariness. "They are... Villains." My blood ran cold, he's serious.

"What?! Villains?! It's not possible these guys can invade a Super Hero's School!." Kirishima once again mirroed my thoughts.

"What about the intruder alarms?" Yaoyorozu exclaimed. Indeed, I was wondering the same thing, the alarms just went on earlier, why haven't they now? Unless...

"Of course, but..."

"There is one amongst them with a jammer quirk blocking the alarms from sounding." 13 barely started to speak before I came to a conclusion.

"It's only thing that makes sense, a mere attempt from those reporters earlier and the alarms roared almost instantly, so I presume that for this amount of villains to infiltrate the school and not hear the alarms, one must have blocked the signal with it's quirk." I watch the group coming at us at a slow pace.

These black mist was closing, but not before one last individual stepped out of the portal, a skinny individual, an arched back posture and light coloured hair, but his most striking feature were the inumerous detached hands covering his entire body, from head to toes.

"By the looks of it, this raid isn't random either. For this much of preparation to make sure alarms didn't go off, I can guarantee this was premeditated, planned, with a clear goal in mind besides creating havoc." Todoroki interceded with pinpoint intuition, the same as mine.

"13, start the evacuation." Mr. Aizawa exclaimed as he walked forward, towards the horde of villains."Try making contact with the school, one of them must have Radio Jamming powers."

"You... you are going to face them alone?" Midoriya asked as Mr. Aizawa placed himself between us and them.

"Eraser Head's fightstyle is capturing after erasing a villains quirk, going head on against this many puts him at a disandvantage." He's right, Mr. Aizawa's quirk is perfect for one-on-one skirmishes, not against multiple opponents.

"No one becomes a hero with just one trick up it's sleeve." Mr. Aizawa... No, Eraser Head said as he lunged towards the group alone, my body wants to follow him at will, but currently I would just slow him down.

...

"Let's get out of here!" Ilda broke me out of trance as I was watching Eraser Head absolute domination in hand-to-hand combat, I'm shocked, never would I thought he was a CQC specialist, let alone a master of it. I do as Ilda says and run towards the exit.

...

"You shall not pass."

An unknown voice exclaimed as another black mist suddenly appeared from the ground in front of us. The mist expanded and took a humanoid form.

"Greetings, we are the League of Villains. It may be presumptuous of us, but we have invited ourselves in to the home of the heroes, U.A High School, because we've heard that All Might should be here, was there any kind of change of plans?" This... Thing talked in such polite and educated manner one could be easily deceived if it wasn't for it's grotesque appereance, a talking black veil, with yellow glowing lights which what I can assume is it's eyes.

It's also full of openings, I note that Bakugou looks ready to pouce at him at any second, gotta take that chance too, if me and Bakugou can get a direct hit, we may down it and open the way for the exit.

"Well, it doesn't matter, my objective here is-" .It brandished it's extremites to the sides, further blocking our path.

The mere muscle twitch of Bakugou's shoulder was the signal. We lunge at the veil, so does Kirishima hardening his arms, my body is coated with electricity, we attack at the same time, an explosion ensues as Bakugou uses his quirk. Did we get it?

"How dangerous... How dangerous... Indeed, you guys are excelent new prospects." Oh no, the monster vanished and materialized again, it looks unharmed, perhaps it's quirk allows for attacks to phase right through it. I can react to any incoming counter attack but Kirishima and Bakugou are wide open, gotta protect them both.

"As I was saying, before being rudely interrupted, my objective is to scatter you all and torture you to death!" Black mist tendrils were lauched at us from the monster's body, I jump upwards to avoid the tendrils only to realize the monster had encases us in a dome made from itself, it got us trapped.

"Everyone!" Ilda's voice desperate was the last thing I could hear before sudden silence. I can't see anything but darkness, not even my electricity emmits visible light, I'm at the mercy of the monster, we all are. Dammit...
