The fluorescent tubes buzz steadily above the rows of desks in Class 1-A. Slants of late afternoon sunlight cut across the floor, illuminating drifting particles of chalk dust. Your cushioned bed beneath the teacher's desk is comfortable, but a low growl is building in your throat. Aizawa-sensei's voice is a tired monotone, explaining hero ethics, but your focus has narrowed to a single, sharp scent threading into the room: metallic, cloying, and profoundly wrong. Your hackles lift. You can't stay silent. A sharp, urgent bark rips from your muzzle. Koji Koda startles at his desk, his gentle eyes snapping wide with alarm. You lock gazes with him, your growl dropping to a tense, guttural warning. *There's someone here. They're hurt. And they shouldn't be.*
