When we arrived at the USJ, Thirteen lectured us on what was going to happen with the areas and with us.
"All the dummy civilians have been placed,each zone has ten. There will be many challenges you will have to face during this, so be at your best, and don't let yourself get distracted! When you get to your areas stand on the platform presented, when we give the go, you may start." Thirteen then showed us the ways to go. I was very nervous as I twiddles my thumbs, Fumikage and Yayourozu on either side of me.
"(Y/N) are you okay?" Yayourozu asked me, concern reflecting off her eyes. I smiled looking up at her, she was pretty tall for a girl,then again, I was pretty short myself. "Yes I'm fine, just a little nervous." I giggled slightly to break the discomfort as we all waited on the large platform as instructed.
I prepared myself, checking over my suit, adjusting trinkets here and there, then looked over at Fumikage. I admired him, he looked so calm and focused, like he's not going to let anything happen to break his concentration. His eyes glew dark red as his poncho like cape twisted in the wind. He looked over at me and smiled. I blushed and quickly looked away, he looked so handsome when he smiles, just then, I felt him pat my head softly. "It's going to be okay, we've got this."
Suddenly, the announcement system jolted to life and Thirteens voice could be heard over it, echoing slightly. "I hope you are all prepared, you may begin now!" Yayourozu immediately created a blanket and laid it over the platform "Bring all the civilians here!" She yelled to us as she ran off, leaving me and Tokoyami.
Fumikage spoke up, and looked at me with a warm expression "W-we should stick together, so we can maximize our efforts" he managed, I thought I heard him stutter a bit, maybe he was nervous as well, I smiled and agreed. We ran over to the nearest building, and decided to split up inside it, we couldn't find any civilians within that building so we went on to the next.
This whole process continued for about thirty minutes until we had both found two civilians. Mine just so happened to be a large man,standing 6 ft tall. He looked to be hurt pretty bad so I made a stretcher out of light, and managed to lift the man with the help of Fumikage onto it and pushed him back to the safe area.

"Wow, you're quirk is quite amazing (y/n)." He said to me, smirking at me. I blushed "I mean, it's useful but not as good as yours or Momo's." I said as we ran to the next building. This building looked to be quite worn down, We found about 5 civilians trapped under rocks, which with the help of Dark Shadow and my stretchers, we all recovered safely.
We saw that Yayourozu had saved one, which meant that there were two more left. Fumikage and I took a sip of water before continuing on.
The last building looked very dangerous, like it would collapse under one touch. Fumikage voulenteered to go first, I told him that I would though. I didn't want him to get hurt in any way.
On the second floor, I had seen a young girl in the corner. She looked to be about 5 years old and was crying.
"Fumikage! Over here!" I yelled for him. He came up towards me carefully. "Dark Shadow, cover her" he said, but I had already bolted towards her. I stepped on a crack, which led to more cracks forming, and more. Fumikage raced towards me. "(Y/N)!" He had me in his arms just as the rocks fell on top of us.
I closed my eyes, preparing to die but I snapped them open. "(Y/N) are you okay?" It was pitch black except for the small beams of light coming through the rocks. "Yeah I'm fine, um.." I shifted a bit, looking up at his eyes. I realized I was sitting in his lap as he held me tightly.
"F-Fumikage! Am I crushing you?" I attempted to get off but he stopped me. "There's no more room in here, you have to stay here until someone comes, and no I am okay, you are very light" I could feel my face heat up in the dark, I was scared though. I didn't want to die here, but being in his arms soothed me a little bit.
"H-hey (Y/N), there's.. something I would like to ask you.." he said tripping over his words as he pulled me closer into his chest. "W-what is it F-Fumikage?" My face was warming up more now, I could feel his hands grip my costume tightly. "I-I like you (Y/N)... a lot..." He ducked his head and laid it on my shoulder.

"I-I like you too Fumikage! You're a great friend!" I said happily but he shook his head. "N-no! Not a like like that, I mean.." he gulped loud enough for me to hear "I-I love you..." His voice got quieter at the end. I blushed as I accidentally made a squealing noise. He looked back at me, confused. "F-Fumikage! I love you too!" I gathered all the courage I had and wrapped my arms around his neck.
He hesitated but snaked his arms around my waist, pulling me into a tight hug. "I-I'm.. so happy (Y/N)! This.. this is the best day ever!" He spoke excitedly. I began to cry softly. "I-I had always t-thought you did-didnt like me like that" I sniffled a but. He shot up "Hey! Don't cry! I love you, you're to pretty to cry!" I blushed at his remark. "You are really h-handsome yourself B-but I'm not really that p-pretty..."
He chuckled "Nonsense, you're absolutely stunning" he ran his fingers up my sides. "Hey, (Y/N).. will you be my girlfriend?" He said in a quiet voice as if someone else was listening. I gasped and nodded vigorously. "Yes! Of course!" I wiggled slightly and kissed him on the tip of his beak.
He jolted up a little and I backed away, my heart ached. "I-Im sorry... Did I go to far?" I asked silently, a hint of heartbreak was in my voice. I hoped he didn't hate me for that.. "No, it's just.. I've never been kissed before like that.." he ghosted his hand over his beak before putting it back on my waist.
"Can I try something?" He asked softly. "Yes, of course." I prepared myself for whatever he was about to do. I saw him tilt his head, slightly coming closer to me. I did the same but in the opposite direction. He parted his beak a little before pressing his bird like lips against mine. I was surprised, they felt soft, not like human soft but kissable. His lips moved a bit and I closed my eyes, working to move mine as well. He hummed tranquil before pulling away, looking at me. "D-Did that hurt you at all?" He asked, concerned. I shook my head "No it felt good... That was my first kiss..." I brushed my fingertips over my lips.
He chuckled a little "I'm glad you gave me the honor of being your first, I hope I get to be your last as well." He had confidence in his voice as I curled up, blushing hard. He pulled my waist towards him and pressed me into another kiss, this time we immediately moved in sync, he squeezes my waist softly, I make a small noise into the kiss before he and I both pull away. "You're very adorable, you know that?" He asked, cupping my cheek. I wrapped my arms tighter around his neck "S-So are you..." I said quietly, barely audible.
He hummed lowly "I guess we're going to be in here for a bit. He summoned Dark Shadow, who went to go get help. I giggled softly. "He's kind of like a personal assistant" Fumikage laughed at my remark.
For the long time we were in there together,we talked about how we got into UA, our families, and other random things. Fumikage threw in some compliments as well here and there, making me squeal softly whenever he did.
"I have to say, this morning I planned to confess to you, Shouji told me what to do.." he rubbed the back of his neck. I giggled lightly, closing my eyes "Wow, who knew you would be the guy to get advice?" I joked, silently admitting to myself that I had no idea what to do when it came to relationships, so he was on a level higher than me. "Well what he said to me seems to be working, just look at how flustered you are" he pulled my cheek playfully. "Tch.. yeah, I guess you're right...." He smiled at me.
After about ten more minutes, Thirteen and Mr. Aizawa came to help us, Thirteen used their quirk to suck up the rocks so we could get out.
We walked back to the rest of the class, who was already there waiting, his hand intertwined with mine.
