Chapter 9: Class President

Araki just waved goodbye to Momo as she enters the black car with half of the baggage they are carrying earlier. With all his classmates already on their way home, Araki also is about to go home when he decided to check the two messages on his phone.

[Mr. Araki, we would like to tell you that the package XM106DG1 has arrived. Please reply for confirmation.]

He replies as he already knows what it was and looks at the second message and reads it.

'Welp, looks like it's not just the school that is going to be interesting.' Araki thought as he walks to the train station. Soon, he arrives home and went to his usual routine. He also took care of the package that he had just received.

The night sky envelops the sky and morning came just as fast. He already finished his daily routine and decides to leave early to visit his grandfather and bring him fruits.

Time passes and unlike before, there are much fewer students this time. At exactly 7:00 a.m., Aizawa enters the room with looks around if there is a student not yet in the room.

"You all did great in the exercise you did yesterday. Except for some." He addresses some people like Bakugo and Midoriya as he explains what they did.

After doing so, he walks to the corner and sets his sleeping bag in his favorite place. "For today, you are going to pick a class president." ''''So… normal.'''' Everyone thought at the same time.

"Me! I want to do it!" "Pick me! Pick me!" "I'm going to make the girl's skirts shorter." Everyone wants to take up the job at the same time but one voice stood out.

"Everyone! This role in the class is going to be important so we need to pick the person who we think is the best. I suggest we try to vote a person and the person with the greatest number of points be the president." Of course, many express their concerns but still get along with them.

Shoji is assigned to count and record the number of votes on the board. In the end, the results were tallied up.

[Midoriya – 3 votes

Yaoyorozu – 3 votes

Bakugo – 1 vote

Yamamoto – 1 vote

…]

"What are we going to do with the tie?" Momo looks at Iida and asks him the question. "We can have different methods like, redoing the voting but this time with only you two-", still unfinished with his statement, Aizawa interrupts.

"Just do a coin flip so this would be over already." Hearing Aizawa's suggestion, Iida's face turned to white and black with a poker face expression. However, to his surprise, the two candidates agreed on their teacher's suggestion.

In the end, the coin landed on heads giving the win to Izuku. "So that's the results. Izuku Midoriya will be the president of Class 1-A and Momo Yaoyorozu would be the deputy president." The class ended and another class starts.

Lunch soon arrives, the four friends are sitting at a table alongside some of their classmates. Everyone is eating except Araki who is currently reading a book.

"The reporters at the front earlier are too touchy. Anyways, why aren't you eating?" Jiro asks Araki who is beside Denki.

"I want to, but I don't have to," Araki says as a spoon approaches his mouth and receives the food from Denki. He knows Araki didn't order so he took the liberty of buying the food for him.

"It's not about whether you have already eaten but it is lunchtime. You are supposed to eat and for a student, you should eat with your friends and classmates." Momo tells him as she eats beside Jiro.

"It's not that I have already eaten, but I just don't have the nee-" *RRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG*

Suddenly, the school alarm goes on. "There has been a Level 3 security breach. Everyone is advised to evacuate outdoor as soon as possible." Everyone in the cafeteria heard this. Many students start to leave pushing others to hasten the crowd in front.

While all this is happening, Araki and his friends are still sitting at the table. This is because Araki told them to stay where they are.

"It's not like we would be able to do that with that many students. With the number of teachers in this school, it would be easy to apprehend the trespassers. I don't like to guess and make speculation without guess but no sane villain would attack U.A. whose security is just below Tartarus, especially with All Might and many heroes currently here."

"But they managed to alert that level of security. With U.A.'s defense system, no normal person would be able to breach that." Momo just like Araki is correct. "But they won't attack." Denki got what Araki is saying after Momo's exclaim.

"What he is saying is that… he doesn't want to join that massive crowd of students pushing each other and continue eating because just like what he said, no sane villain would attack U.A. so they most likely want something else."

Araki puts his hand on his friend's shoulder signaling that he got his point. The two women just let out a sigh because they too, don't want to be crushed in the massive crowd.

The crowd soon dissipates because of a voice that Class 1-A knows is Iida's. The situation settles as the students go back to their room.

"Everyone, I would like to make Iida the class president." Izuku confidently says. "As you have seen earlier, based on how he handled the commotion, I think he deserves the position more than me."

Iida is very surprised by what he just heard. Even his other classmates are agreeing with what Izuku is saying. Izuku asks him to come to the from and replace him from the spot and he stands up to accept it.

Todoroki, currently seating beside Araki turns around to his right as he hears a familiar voice. It was Araki's. He is whispering something to him that is somewhat gibberish so he leaned in.

"Are you okay with that?" Araki asks him silently. "What do you mean?"

"We both voted for Momo and she tied with Midoriya. So, what I am asking you is if it is okay for you to have your voting rights to be disregarded like that."

"I don't really care. It's just class president." He said with his monotone voice.

"They invalidated our existence just like that. Are you okay with that?" Araki said to him, in now teasing manner. But for the second time, Todoroki just ignored him again.
