Itsuka Kendo
surprise. it's kendo appreciation time
Everyone thought you were weird. The way you talk, walk or even breathe.
You were just plain.. weird.
Your long (h/c) hair pooled on your feet, your skin has weird scales on it and your teeth- which was the reason of your popularity amongst the students- were sharp.
You were called Munchy by others since someone had saw you eating Munchies, one of your favourite snack when you were hungry + upset. You chomped it so hard while you open your mouth, and made a mess. (you were crying)
And you have created 0 friends since kindergarten.
Your parents were really worried about this, but you reassured them, saying you're "a woman who doesn't need anyone by her side!"
You know that was half true and half lie.
You had always felt empty.
No one stand up for you when you were bullied or teased.
It hurt.
But you never have the heart to tell your family because they worry too much. They cared for you, but you're just.. scared.
"Hey, are you okay? You're crying.." a redhead beside you commented and your eyes went wide before you wiped away the tears. You dryly chuckled at her, saying;
"I'm fine, and thank you for asking. Sorry if I bothered you." with a small bow to her, since it was quite hard to move around in your small seat.
"Ah.. it's no problem! I was a little worried when tears started coming out from your eyes!" she gave you a gentle smile before paying attention to the loud Pro Hero on the stage.
You shuffled in your seat, finding yourself to be uncomfortable because you were sitting on top of your hair.
"Oi stop moving! You're in the way!" someone whispered behind you, and you turned to look at the person behind you to see him scowling at you.
You were starting to tear up as you profusely apologized to him.
"And you with the (h/c) hair! You clearly have distracted the people around you with your noises and movements!"
Your fragile heart almost stopped beating when you were being everyone's attention.
You shrunk into your seat, unable to bear the embarrassment anymore.
_
"How is this even possible?!" a voice you know all too well screamed.
"Munchy-chan why are we in the same arena?" that sickening voice said. You felt like throwing up when you met eyes with your classmate.
"Maybe it was a glitch in the system, but eh~ you're probably blessed for having me near you~"
Sawa* was one of your bully. Her quick was plain snake but your classmates worship her somehow.
You looked down, not wanting to look at her face anymore. The way she stared at you made you uncomfortable.
The other examiners could also see how you rubbed you arm with your hand, clearly showing that you were upset.
"Hey."
Your ears perked at the voice.
"I don't know what your relationship is, but she's clearly-" you stared at your saviour's face, blocking every sound.
The more you stared at her, the more confused you became.
But then you realized.
You were building your courage to ask someone what the was about since you spaced out when the hero was explaining it!!
YOU'RE DOOMED.
"You okay?-"
"GO!!!"
And then you ran, not giving the girl any glance.
You're going to survive whatever the test was about, and show your bully that your hair wasn't just a stupid accessory. After all they're all apart of your Quirk.

You didn't know what you were doing. You just saved anyone who looked like they were going to die and put them to safety. You were able to pick up around two at once with your hair.
Some of the weird robots were all chomped down using your teeth, and you couldn't help but feel.. amazing when people thanked you for saving them.
and of course, since you were a little awkward from having small communication skill, you just stared at them while brushing your hair.
"..the nice lady!" you gasped, finally you could see her quirk in action!
'she must have an amazing quirk' was what you thought.
She practically crushed the robot by punching it with her
"Big Fist!"
You were in awe. 'SO COOL!'
"My, what a brutal quirk for a lady like you~"
You felt your blood boiling when a person said that. but she just brushed it off and continued to look around.
Her eyes landed on you and you felt yourself to blush.
Why was she looking at you like that? Her face turned into something you couldn't really understand. Fear? Why was she looking at you in.. fear?
"BEHIND YOU!"
"Target acquired."
Everything went black.
_
you were waken someone playing with your hair and touching your cheeks.
"ugh my head hurts." you groaned, slowly fluttering your eyes open. you were glad the room was dimly lit, or else your eyes would hurt.
"oh you're awake."
you looked at your side to see the redhead. she was wearing her school uniform too. were you passed out for too long?
"I slept for hours?"
"oh yeah, you did. sorry i woke you up." she chuckled.
and you didn't know why her soft laugh sounded like the greatest music in your ears. she looked so angelic you thought you died. you also wonder... why was she so nice to you? who was she?
"oh, you're (l/name), right?" you blinked, shocked that she knew your name. was she from your school? but you have different uniforms so it couldn't be!
"sorry if i seem creepy. well, you're my neighbour so.. i only know your family name.." your mouth went O before you screamed,
"eh?! you're my neighbour?!"
"yes! shocking, isn't it? the name's itsuka kendo!" she held out her hand and you hesitantly shook it. you arm was kinda sore.
"oh and sorry but i tied your hair! it was.. messy and kept getting in your mouth." she laughed.
you touched your hair. it was tied into a big braid. it confirmed that you had slept for a long period of time. and she waited for you..?
"and you can keep the hairband! it'll be a meeting gift for you, haha!"
you looked at her with your eyebrows knitted together.
"really? you're being so nice to me even though we just met.."
you gently sat up with her helping you.
you took the braid into your hand and caressed your hair.
"I'm weird, my skin isn't as soft as how a girl's should be and my teeth are scary.. just like how people say.."
you were shocked by her grabbing your cheeks to make you look at her.
"i don't think so, though. all i see here is a cute, beautiful and amazing person."
you gaped at her. she brushed her thumb below your lips- glancing at your teeth- before smiling.
"you're not weird, you're unique."
you hugged her. and she didn't pushed you off of her so you took it as a sign of approval.
and she was warm, just like how you had always imagined how a hug should be.
