Mystery from Another World--MHA

Part 146: Bakugo kabedons Camie

Friday finally arrived and the students got ready for Shiketsu. They were coming to UA this time around.

A new simulation was ready in the USJ.

With so many new students, Aizawa asked Shine and Wally to help supervise. Eri was left with Mirio for the morning. He was happy to watch her.

Shine was going to watch anyway, so she was glad of the excuse.

The Shiketsu students arrived around 10 am, looking raring to go.

Yoarshi enthusiastically greeted Todoroki, who put up with it with a surprising amount of tolerance. After the months he'd had, Yoarshi was just not even on his radar of what to be annoyed about.

He stole some glances toward Momo, but he was still not sure what he was going to do, so he didn't talk to her. She was avoiding eye contact too.

Jiro thought it was dumb.

Bakugo waited for Camie to appear out of her class. But when he saw her he was rather stunned.

Camie wasn't hurt or anything, but she wasn't wearing any make up, and her hair and outfit looked like they were just passable under the uniform. She would have looked normal compared to anyone else, but compared to her usual self who put in the extra effort to look glamorous, it didn't look right at all.

No one in her class seemed to have noticed this. They kind of ignored her. She followed Yoarshi, as usual, who acted normal enough.

Camie also didn't come right up and say hi to Bakugo.

That did it for him. He stalked over. "Too good to answer me?" he said snippily.

Camie faked a smile. "Hey, bro..." She glanced around warily, trying to look nonchalant about it.

Bakugo didn't see anyone around to be worried about. Shishikura was off with some other chick...the one with the freaky quirk. She'd been at the city too. She was just chewing gum and saying something to him.

"What the h--- has been going on with you?" Bakugo said in a lower voice, "Everyone's been tripping out over it."

"Nothing, fahm." Camie pulled her hat lower over her face. "I've just been really slammed this month. Sorry about not coming, but ya know, I had a lot of homework. I was getting behind."

"And you didn't just ask me for help?"

"Like, I didn't want to bother you."

"Since when?"

"Baku, please," Camie suddenly sounded kind of desperate, "just drop it. I don't really want to b---- about anything right now." She walked away.

That was...bizarre.

Bakugo walked back to Shine. "Something is definitely wrong."

"I'll be keeping my eyes open," Shine promised him, "If you get any clue, you just let us know when you get the chance."

She patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, Katsuki. With all of us on the job, it's bound to come out."

"Who the frick was worried? She's just pissing me off by lying about it," Bakugo said.

Shine sighed. "Yeah, I feel ya... Well, better go kick some rear." She smiled.

"As if I didn't know that..." Bakugo walked off, kind of smirking. Shine always knew what to say.

Shoto glanced at Camie. He wasn't totally out of it to the point where he wasn't worried about her too, but to his very unobservant self, she seemed normal. He didn't see any problem. Maybe it was just a false alarm...
