Chapter 5: Moving In

VIBRA ZIONIANTI

I awoke in my rather small bed. It was so small that no matter what position I was in, my head or my arms or my legs would stick out of it. The mattress was in a unkept condition, so I had to cover it up with an indigo blanket in order to have the comfort I required, as I didn't want to have itches on my back constantly.

I took an extended glance at my room. It was rather small and dark. In the corner of the ceiling, there was a hollow point with water dripping through. I had put a bucket under it the other night but it always disturbs me at night. On the wall left of my bed, there was a wooden drawer that too was unkept. On the top of the drawer were a group of picture frames featuring family photos and a picture of myself at my first day of a normal school.

I sat upward and rubbed my eyes so hard I started seeing those strange heavily translucent patterns. My bed creaked as I moved, like an cricket chirping at night. The walls were painted with a faded green. The paint was wearing off, to the point where you could see the original white in scraped sections of the walls.

I stood up and made my way to the bathroom. My bathroom was considerably small. It fit the toilet, the shower and the sink all in one rectangular shaped box. It was not that spacious however, but I preferred it that way. I took a relaxing shower.However, my water was rather cold despite me having put it on the high temperature setting.

After my shower, I took a step and faced toward the mirror. My teeth were rather unclean after eating dinner yesterday, so I brushed it with my red toothbrush. It was a hand-me-down from my sibling. It must feel weird to brush with a toothbrush used by someone else, but it had been continuously cleaned, so I saw no problem.

After all of that, I got dressed up in the UA uniform. Usually it features a red tie to compliment the suit, but I was recommended by my father to wear a red ascot, with a green gem in the middle. I wasn't so sure why this had to be the case, but I assume it was some snarky royalty stuff I could care less for.

After that, I packed my bags. According to the timetable given out on UA's student virtual ID's, the following day would comprise of the first four periods being the moving periods, in which the students move into their dorms, get everything settled then get to know each other for team building. The contents of my bag were the fairly standard stuff in my room. Like for example, everything in the room apart from the bed and toilet. I was not sure how big UA rooms were so I had to assume it was large, at least larger than this room.

I carried my bags and stood in front of the door leading to the outside of my room. I took a deep breath and opened it. As soon as I opened it, a bright yellowish light brightened up my whole room, it felt blurry for a few seconds before showing my house's living room. It was a large luxurious ballroom with a chandelier made with the same gems I am wearing on the top. The floors were clean shiny concrete with a pentagonal pattern of varying shades of brown and yellow.

The room comprised of the usual rich people stuff. Tables with a white cloth draped over on the sides, wine bottles on them and delicious foods. All those delicious goods are things I've never really gotten to experience. I simply walked to the entrance, where my family of 10 stood. They were anticipating my moving to UA. The Butler, Mr. Opston, held a tablet that showed a video call of my mother and father, who looked far too busy doing whatever else than ever glancing at the screen.

I looked at my siblings. Mother and Father were too busy to really come here personally to see my leave. I know I word it like they are afar, but really they're in the next room, watching some golf game or some other stupid king and queen things. You see, I've always been the black sheep to my parents. They think my hair is some sort of bad omen, the changing colors meaning Evil in Futoblîsk, you can infer they don't like rainbows very much. My siblings have always been supportive of me, but they are better served when it comes to living in this gigantic mansion. I had to live under the stairs in the living room, like a novel character.

V. Mom: Vibra! How proud we are to see you achieve such a glorious task!

V. Dad: ...We look forward to your career in the future.

I clenched my fist. I especially dislike my father.

V. Mom: Well! Tata!

My sister, Astrid, patted me on the shoulder.

Astrid: Good luck future hero!

Vibra: I will, thank you very much, I'll miss you all.

I said the same things to my other 9 siblings before entering the cab. Usually for the others it'd be a limousine, but you know how it is. I waved bye before drifting away into UA.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TORI ZOGAIKOTSU

I arrived at the UA dorms far more earlier than everyone else, and I wish I hadn't because I'd love to see their reactions to their rooms. They were so spacious. The floors were made of the finest wooden pallets on the face of this earth.

I suppose there was nothing else to do. I was the first to arrive and the teacher, Mr. Ahseru was there. It was rather awkward between the two of us. Honestly I'm a bit scared of him. And no, I'm not racist, racism is for chumps! I'm talking about his build. He looks so strong, as if he could level a boulder with one finger, even his face looked muscular, the shades on his eyes making it more apparent. He looked like the main character of a 70's funky kung fu film.

I just hung around a while, in the living room with all my bags, the teacher leaning by the wall near the entrance, arms crossed. I wanted to ask him all sorts of questions like "How did you gain such muscle?" or "Who taught you these techniques because the name you gave the other day was considered illegal by Ms. Jack?" And "How is your day?" But I suppose I needed to lay off on it, he seems like he'd beat me up for it. Maybe I'm exaggerating but still.

I heard the door open. I looked over to see the blank white skinned girl with onomatopoeias drawn on her enter.

???: Woahhhh! This is the UA Dorks?

Ahseru: Dorms.

???: Ah! Mr. Johnson? You're here. T

he teacher looked down and grumbled a few words. I only made out the words: "Damn, Reader.."

Ahseru: I'd prefer if you used my hero name.

???: That being....

She looked over to me. I was confused and was about to tell her the answer when suddenly-

???: Mr. Ahseru?

Ahseru: You pick up quick, stick with that and you won't get picked on.

???: Will do Mr. Johnsheru!

Teacher simply pinched the bridge of his nose and shook his head.The girl made her way over to me.

???: Hello classmate.....Tori Zogaikotsu.

Zogaikotsu: Huh?! How did you-

???: There's a white square to your close right, tells me all I need to know about you.

She looked over to the side, I for one saw nothing at all, but she appeared to be reading.

???: Tori Zogaikotsu, Aged 15, Big Deku Fan, lots of dandruff on hair, in middle school had tacs constantly put on his chair, during your 15th birthday you and your family went to the All Might tower but your tire went flat so you needed a spare...

She continued listing things about me that even I didn't know. Quite random yet so useful!

???: I know right? Makes things way easier.

Woah....she read that as well.

???: Yes, and that as well.

She smiled and held out her hand.

Shiko: Shiko Fukidashi, nice to meet you.

I shook her hand.....Fukidashi? I know that from somewhere. Wait, if she can read my mind, isn't that an invasion of privacy?

Shiko: I know, but privacy is invaded on the internet everyday anyways...

That's morally questionable.

Shiko: I know.

Zogaikotsu: Should I even speak?

Shiko: I'd prefer you do! I know you wanted me to elaborate on it so I'll tell you about my quirk. My quirk is Comical, named by yours truly, and after my father.

Zogaikotsu: Is your father...Comic Man?

Shiko: Yes, the hero nobody really cares about.

Zogaikotsu: Oh please...SOMEONE cares.

Shiko: Yeah, you.

I felt rather embarrassed and annoyed. I have always liked Comic Man, as I thought his power to be really cool. Mind readers are such a pain to talk with as you can't hide much. No offense.

Shiko: None taken, anyways! I can read what you're thinking which appears as speech bubbles in my eyes. Not only that, I can throw the onomatopoeias on my skin at people and it gives off the sound effect of that onomatopoeia. It's randomly generated however. And so, yes, that's all you need to know.

Zogaikotsu: Wow, I don't know what to say.

Shiko: You don't need to say it. I already know!

I heard a sudden loud bump on the door. Even the teacher jumped a bit. The bump got more continuous.

Shiko: I know those stupid bumps!

She walked over to the door and opened it and in flew a red and black haired girl with fly wings entering then crashlanding onto the floor.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

Ahseru: whistle Talk about an entrance.

Shiko: Rumi! You made it!

She picked up the girl who had somewhat of a hunched back.

"Rumi": Ah did?

The girl has a country accent, she's probably from Osaka.

Shiko: Yes, you did.

"Rumi": Woahhhh......WOAHHHHHHHH!

She looked around the living room.

"Rumi": Ahm gonna live 'ere? Where ah da beds?

Shiko: You ol' fart! The beds are in the dorms! We're not all living in one room!

"Rumi": Ohhhhhh......woahhhhh! Ah know youuu!

She flew over to me, her wings buzzing as she did.

"Rumi": You're de funny Lizardy man!

I felt a painful tinge go through my body. As much as I find her cool, I hate being compared to Lizardy, since it makes me feel less unique. I mean- she can seperate into more parts, she has more confidence, she is smarter and she is otherwise cooler.

Shiko: Ey! Lay off on the comparisons with this dude, he feels uncomfortable with it.

"Rumi": Awww....okay...

Zogaikotsu: No, don't worry about it, It's nothing.

"Rumi": You saved mah best frien, you're a hero!

Zogaikotsu: I did?

Shiko: Yeah, you picked me up when I was down on the ground. I guess that counts as saving, just agree with it.

I don't even really remember that to be honest..

Zogaikotsu: Ohhh, yes I did.

I admit, I blushed a bit when she called me a hero. I've still go a long way to go however.

Shiko: On another note, mind showing us what the rooms look like? I'm sure it'll make us have a bond? Yes?

I couldn't argue with that logic, bonds are a useful thing in the hero world.

Zogaikotsu: Alright then, follow me, I'll show the way!

"Rumi": What about mah bags?

Shiko: What about them?

"Rumi": Who's carrying it in to de ro-

Without hesitation I immediately shouted out

Zogaikotsu: I'll do it! Where are they?

"Rumi": Outsahde, Ah wanted to make a cool entrance, but ah forgot what doors were for a few seconds.

Zogaikotsu: I see!

I rushed to the open door to see an...awful lot of bags. There was a blank white bag that had marker written on it that said "Property of Cool Person." Honestly, I could tell it was Fukidashi's but...who has a bag the same colour as their skin? Like seriously, I don't imagine people just casually buying skin coloured bags. Then again you don't see blank white people normally so...On the other hand, the fly girl who Fukidashi called Rumi had A LOT of bags, all varying in terms of type too. There was a suitcase, a briefcase, a rolling bag, a backpack, a fanny pack, and so on and so forth.

Zogaikotsu: Uh...why do you have so many bags?

"Rumi": Ah get unlucky ahll da tahme, so ah lose mah bags a lot.

Yeah I totally understood that. (I did not.)

Fukidashi went over and whispered to my ear.

Shiko: She's superstitious. By the way, her name is Kirigaya Kurumi.

Zogaikotsu: Well then! This won't be an issue for me! Lousy Suitcases are nothing if I could beat a robot!

I cracked my fingers and prepared for the suit case bringing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

JISHAKU JISAKARU

I arrived to the UA 1-B dorms entrance to see my teacher, my childhood friend, and a scribbly looking girl try to lift up a comically large hiking bag. They were all sweating like crazy.

Zogaikotsu: HO-HOW HEAVY IS THIS!

Ahseru: Sweet lord! Is there a nuclear bomb in here or something!?

Shiko: Rumi.....you- pant don't need to pack your ENTIRE room!

Kurumi: But what if they don't give us beds?

Ahseru: GIRL IT'S A DORMITORY! OBVIOUSLY THEY GONNA GIVE YA'LL BEDS!

I just walked past the chicanery and went inside. It was a surprisingly furnished dormitory. Ignoring the.....escapade outside, it was very peaceful.

Jisakaru: Are the dorms assigned to us or do we get to pick?

Ahseru: HOLY- Where did you come from?! Nngh-

Jisakaru: Is that a yes?

Ahseru: You all get to pick! Now on 1, 2, 3!

They all lifted it up. Zogaikotsu was using all of his limbs to pick up different sides, his feet for the bottom, his arms for the top and his torso and head for the strap of the bag. He had been biting the strap and wrapped his torso around it. I walked to the dorm room at the end of the hall. Being at the end of the hall means less noise from the other folks when you are sleeping. I just hope there are windows.

I went inside, it was a fairly nice dorm room. Beds were there and yes there were windows. I put my bags on the ground and did the first thing any reasonable person would do when moving into a new apartment. I jumped onto the bed and took a really quick nap.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VIBRA ZIONIANTI

How troublesome! There had been a traffic jam. I originally believed that it was because of UA and how reporters were really into what was happening, but it turned out it was just a significant number of people going to a Kairi Meiru concert, a virtual singer/hero who isn't even a real person from what I've seen. The cab driver was a bit saddened.

Cab Driver: Sorry champ, it appears there's been a delay, you might go to school late.

Vibra: Could I go out and go there myself?

Cab Driver: Your quirk can travel right? In that case, just be careful alright, heard there's been a few incidents of killings out there lately.

Vibra: Okay I will, thank you sir!

I said as I exited the vehicle. Honks are vibration waves so I just walked up to the noisiest car and just proceeded to warp all through the road.

After a while I finally had made it to the UA 1-B dorms. Very nice exterior. I walked to the doors. I had been rather late so I imagine everyone is inside. I opened up and I was right on the mark, majority of the class were here. They were all talking and hanging out. It seemed nice.

Zogaikotsu: Oh hey, you!

That one white haired fellow called out to me. He walked over, I got the feeling he did this with everyone here.

Vibra: Ah, Zogaikotsu, was it?

Zogaikotsu: That's me! Glad to see you here!

Vibra: These are the dorms? So spacious..

I meant what I said, they seemed really nice and spacious and comfortable.

Zogaikotsu: For real....I feel like I'm in heaven.

Vibra: Is this everyone?

Zogaikotsu: Yeah pretty much. A certain someone is sleeping in their dorm early and the teacher is taking a break in the toilet after a certain incident.

I noticed he had been sweating, which was strange because the room was rather cold.

Vibra: So, How's it feel being apart of the elite UA hero course?

I am going to sound pretentious, but I wanted to hear the average man's opinion on the matter and he seemed fairly average.

Zogaikotsu: Oh it's great! People start being so cool to me, I mean as I was getting here, some dude threw his sandwich at me, and two girls went up to me and said "Wow, I envy you."......wait was it pity or envy? I don't remember, but anyways! It's amazing!

...No comment.

I heard a flush come from a door, I looked to there then out came our large and menacing teacher. He opened the door in a really forceful and intense manner that I felt action lines appearing.

Ahseru: Alright lets start the introduction! Zogaikotsu! Wake up Magentic girl right now!

Zogaikotsu: Aye aye sir!I felt that Zogaikotsu and Mr. Ahseru had a bond, not sure why.

Ahseru: Alright get in a line!

The next few seconds were chaotic. I saw everyone panic and scramble around to form a line, but it appeared that we were all so uncoordinated because we kept bumping into each other. I saw from the right that Zogaikotsu was dragging Jisakaru on the floor, who was somehow still asleep. Eventually, Jisakaru woke up and everything was set in order.

Ahseru: Ooookaaayyy....let's see the kicks....'These dorms were made to protect the future heroes...'blah blah blah....'-helping them bond-'yada yada yada.

He said, flipping through a small journal.

Ahseru: '-most important thing is have fun-' -Okay did we all get that?

The entire class stood in a straight line, Jisakaru's hair was messier than usual, stray hairs everywhere and her stupid curled bang was even more curled. She had bags under her eyes and her glasses weren't even on. And no, we did NOT get all that.

Ahseru: Okay fellas, go hang out or whatever, I'll be sitting on the couch until class starts, don't wreak havoc now. OH and the losers from yesterday, you're gonna do them pushups at lunch.

He said as he proceeded to slide his way onto the couch, taking up all the space by laying down on it. We all stood for a minute just looking at each other, very quiet until we all spread out and fooled around.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TORI ZOGAIKOTSU

I don't know how I got in this situation, but I apparently got pulled into a frisbee game with a bunch of people I don't know and one person who I wish I didn't know in this scenario. It was a game between me, Note, Sora, Yaoyorozu (Big fan of his mother), a dude who's name is something like Gameron who had a Camera for a head, and Jisakaru. To be honest I blacked out and had no clue how I got in this situation, but I wish I wasn't. You see, my friend, Jisakaru has been....let's say a pro with this game.

It started off with Sora, the big and mighty man he is, handling the frisbee.

Sora: Ok, go!

He spoke with his soft voice and he weakly threw the frisbee. We watched as it flailed onto the ground pathetically.

Note: Oh please, let me handle this.

Note walked over to the frisbee, picked it up and dusted it off before walking back to his original spot.

Note: Last minute rule! Quirks are useable!

He blurted out before tossing the frisbee over to me. Thank god quirks were useable here because I would've sucked hard. I used my hand and detached it, making it float over to the frisbee and catching it.

Note: Nice one Zogai Kun! Now throw it to Gamera!

His name is GAMERA! Not Gameron....makes so much sense now.I did as I was taught in middle school, you hold the frisbee like a cup, with your pinkie, ring and middle all working together to hold the frisbee in place. Unfortunately I forgot the part with what your index finger that helps you determine your direction and accidentally threw it to Yosuke Yaoyorozu. It wasn't that bad all things considered, I just messed up the direction.

Yaoyorozu effortlessly caught it.

Yaoyorozu: My my, make sure to know where you throw it next time? Okay?

He had a rather commanding yet comforting voice. Truly the work of the Yaoyorozu bloodline.

Yaoyorozu: Okay, Jisakaru Chan, go up.

He said as he tossed the frisbee at her at a fast speed.

Jisakaru: Oh what?

I noticed that Jisakaru had been tying her shoes the entire time, hopefully she'll fail to catch it because I fear what happens when she does.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

JISHAKU JISAKARU

Man my shoes are really annoying, Throughout the entire day, they had been constantly untying themselves over and over. They were fairly old, as I'd had them for 7 years. You see, my parents bought really oversized shoes for me when I was a young girl, and when I said they were too big they gave me the typical 'You'll grow into it..' Granted, it was post AFO crisis so it made sense why they were saving cash. The shoes were black and white Basketball sneakers.

I don't even know what these bozos are doing right now.

Yaoyorozu: Okay, Jisakaru Chan, go up.

Oh, that's me I think. I get up from tying my shoes and very casually catch the frisbee. It was a rather slow frisbee to be honest, so it was very easy to catch.

Jisakaru: Uh, Zogaikotsu Kun, take it.

I lazily threw the frisbee at Zogaikotsu.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TORI ZOGAIKOTSU

A projectiles flew by my head as I heard the sound of wind booming. Jisakaru had thrown the frisbee so hard that it was as fast as a speeding bullet. She had thrown it with such precision and power. I noticed that she did a 360 degree turn to throw it at me, almost as if she wanted to kill me in style. As she let go of the frisbee, I saw wind blow by as if the world was being distorted from that one frisbee throw.

It frightened me to my attached and detached bones. It flew by so fast that it traveled 10 meters in the blink of an eye. She herself looked rather disappointed and tired, as she had been woken up from her nap, truly the awakening of a titan. The frisbee was smashed into a tree branch, surprisingly, the frisbee was ay okay! Truly an elite school frisbee. But the tree branch was a different story. It was mangled and shredded, and that could have been me.

The boys and I just stood around in silence, maybe it was amusement, maybe it was shock, maybe it was just quiet for the sake of quietness, only for it to have been broken by Gamera's comment.

Gamera: Hey! You guys forgot about me!

Jisakaru: Oh I was supposed to- Ah! I see.

She casually just shrugged and walked back to the interior dorm. We all just stood outside in the field.

Note: Well, I need new underpants for sure.

Sora: You wear underpants?

Note: You do too, right?

Sora: ....

Note: You do too...right?

I felt rather embarrassed because I was almost assassinated in front of new people. Suddenly, Yaoyorozu walked up to me and patted my back.

Yaoyorozu: Don't beat yourself up about it, there's nothing you could have done.

Okay why does he sound like a family member of mine passed away? It was just a weird frisbee game dude, not that deep. Still, I appreciated the comment.

Zogaikotsu: Thanks...Yaoyorozu Kun.

Yosuke: Oh please, we'll be close classmates over the coming days, just call me Yosuke.

Wow. What an honor to be allowed to call him by his first name. I couldn't help but try to shake his hand, but he walked away.

Just me and Gamera. Note and Sora said bye and walked away. It was fairly awkward.

Gamera: So uh...bzz, you know that funny girl?

Zogaikotsu: How could you tell?

Gamera: She looked fairly bzz angry when throwing the friss at ya, maybe be on the lookout, I think you got an enemy.

He was incredibly wrong, but I was too tired to correct him.

After this is the English class, I cannot speak English nor will I ever understand it.

(Author's note, the following story takes place in Japan and is spoken in Japanese. It is simply translated to be understood)

This is UA's Hero Course, I've met a few new people today who I believe will be my greatest allies. As the saying goes, Go Beyond! Plus Ult-o
