Trapped Heroes

Chapter 7

The walk to UA was quiet. Aside from Hange asking Eraserhead about the world we were in.
The hero was... stern. Almost like the Captain. Whenever Hange asked a question, he would give a short, concise answer. We could all feel that his patience was running thin with Hange's curiosity.

"Shut it with the questions, Four-eyes!" Levi's patience was being tested as well. His eyes never left Eraserhead.

We all could tell that Captain Levi didn't trust Eraserhead at all. As a matter of fact, neither did I fully. We had seen so much in our lives. Titans, Titan Shifters, spies from another place... we couldn't afford to trust anyone we've just met.

"I spoke with Nezu about where you'll all be sleeping tonight. We won't allow you to stay in any of the extra dorms until your meeting tomorrow. We hope you understand." Eraserhead took a right at the corner and continued straight towards a big gate.

"No. Thank you very much for your help." Erwin said as we followed Eraserhead through the gate.

"So what is UA?" Hange asked enthusiastically. We could clearly see the desperation on Eraserhead's face.

"UA High School is one of the top schools in our country. I'm a teacher in the Heroics Department at UA. I train kids to use their quirks to become heroes." Eraserhead explained, only to be shut down by Hange's follow-up question: "What's a quirk?"

"A quirk is a unique power that we genetically inherit. About 80% of our world's population has a quirk. The remaining 20% are quirkless, meaning they have no power." He sighed, expecting yet another question from his interrogator. 

"So you ALL have some sort of power?" I was astounded!

"What's your quirk?" Sasha asked in wonder! 

"Erasure." Eraserhead answered. "I am able to erase other's quirks for a limited time."

"So that's why that blue-haired guy couldn't escape with his power! amazing!!!!" Hange was beaming.

Eraserhead continued walking in silence. Finally we came up to a small building.

"This is where you will all be staying. Make yourselves comfortable and I will come to get you in the morning." Eraserhead sighed and let us in.

"Thank you. We are grateful that you're allowing us to stay here." The Commander thanked the hero. Eraserhead simply turned and left us to settle in for the night.

Nobody got a good night's sleep that night. Some, from the excitement of the new world we were currently trapped in, while others worried for our comrades back home. Hopefully, we would all get answers tomorrow.
