Scribbling down notes on his little notebook, Izuku Midoriya grunted as he walked down the streets of the city. He struggled as the warm sun rays hit is eyes, making him squint in the process. He continued writing notes and other meaningful words that wil be of help in the future, secrets buried quietly within the worn pages seem to age the book, brief whispers fluttering through the pages like the forgotten memories of forgotten people from forgotten worlds.
He had just witnessed a fight between pro Hero Kamui and a rampaging villain just a while ago, but <unfortunately his thunder was stolen by the debut of another hero named Mt. Lady.
He slowly entered the gates of his school, the wide area between him and the building seemed to grow farther apart as he took another step closer. Izuku felt anxious, he gripped the handles of his bag (I don't know what it's called I know I'm a disgrace) tightly, his heart beating at a painfully fast pace, his anxiety started to get the best of him as the voices of his demons started whispering upon his ear, the crowd around him seemed to grow bigger as the noises from the crowd started to grow louder, he felt as if he was getting crushed in a sea of voices, suffocated by the huge bodies that surrounded him.
He started panicking, his eyes searched everywhere, his mind trying to count reasons to stay calm, but that only made it worse. He froze at the center of the campus, his body trembling in fear. He couldn't move, he couldn't speak, he felt scared. What if the bullies come at him again? What if they start talking? Beat him up? Steal his money? Humiliate him?
He couldn't stop himself from getting nervous, he had just entered the lions den, and he was the prey.
He felt as if he were getting sick一
"Oi." A hand grabbed his shoulder, making him gasp in surprise. He jumped as he took a step back, raising his arms infront of him in defense, but slowly put them down when he saw who it was "K-kacchan.."
His ash blonde hair seemed to have lighter hue than before, or that was probably because of the sunlight. The taller teen idly took a step closer, towering him. His eyes were dull, his expression was unreadable, and for a moment, Izuku swore he saw a hint of worry in them.
He clucked his tongue "Get out of my way," He grunted, purposefully shoving him away with his shoulder, hard "Deku."
Izuku watched as the more dominant teen entered the school building, he started to feel at ease, exhaling in relief before following after him.
So it went.

"You guys are all third years now!" Their sensei yelled as he grabbed a pile of papers from his desk "It's time to start seriously thinking about your futures."
