Shizume would make the correct assumption as to her Quirk use from now on. It was obvious that the people that were surrounding the students at the time were quite fickle with who they kept in their company, and Quirkers were not one of the groups they would have preferred. The old woman scoffed and crossed her arms over her designer dress, a scowl painted on her face as she watched the young blue-haired girl. She was none-the-wiser to the Quirk use of Shizume as the student sent out a whistle for Poofles to hear. Surely it would mean that the dog would prod through the trees to greet his owner, right?
Except Poofles never came.
"Why aren't you going to actually find him?! He could be hurt and you're just standing there!" The woman was back to snapping at Shizume, pointing out at the vast forest before them,"If you damn students are so brave, then go find Poofles and bring him back! I have connections to the Principal and I'll have you expelled!" A bluff, of course, as most people like her try to sound intimidating as they grab information from thin air. She did have a point, however, and it didn't seem like the dog was coming to the sound of her whistle. If Shizume decided to venture into the forest, she wouldn't have to make it far before hearing faint yipping in the distance. Faint distressed yipping.
The girl nodded at Graham with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, still unable to smile with her current state,"Y-Yes. I think I can move." It was best to think that anything was possible, even in a situation like this, but the anxiety in her face gave way to what she actually felt. She looked down at the seat, then back up at the student with a gulp,"I-I don't think I can, Mister..." Another frozen tear fell and landed on the seats that were trapping her, and her breathing sped in pace as she looked back and forth at the mess she'd gotten herself into. Sure, Graham had already used his Quirk to move the seats, but the fear was starting to cripple her more than her own legs ever could. Still, she could feel each droplet of her legs hit the puddle underneath, and it was enough agony to want to help the student save herself.
The hardened smoke had pushed the seat up enough so that the girl could, shakily, push herself off of her seat just a bit to slide just enough to the left to be able to be reached by Graham to pull her into his arms. Her legs were still solid and ice cold to the touch, but the jagged icicles were looked as if they were melting into Spring. She'd be alright in time, but only if she was taken out of the hot environment immediately,"My-My mama lives far away, so she bought me a ticket to come visit her..." Her voice trailed off as they passed by the crowd, and she looked away from the people who had refused to help a child out of sadness,"Though... I think she'll have to buy another ticket I think, Mister..." As they made it past the door, the man that Katsumi was currently assisting caught a glimpse at the Quirker girl in Graham's arms. Recognition shone in his eyes, and he quickly looked away from the sight as to not bring attention to it.
The man in Katsumi's presence was much more pleasant than his companion, smiling at the smaller girl as they began the trek over to the large hatch door in the side of the plane to carry the luggage,"Sorry about him. The big boss man can be a little..." He thought over his wording for a sec, stroking the goatee at his chin while he mulled it over,"Short-tempered? No, I suppose he's just a bit insufferable sometimes~" Letting out a laugh, the man would open the compartment door with the control panel wired on the side as if it was the hundredth time he'd done so. With a quick couple of button presses, the latch lifted slowly,"Ladies first." He'd usher her in, and would follow suit once she was inside. If she decided to go after, then he'd hop in without a second thought and wait once more like he had standing outside the plane.
Any sort of order that the luggage compartment had had was now gone from the crash, as suitcases were strewn along the inside. Some had opened and left clothing along the floor, all leading to a pile near the south end of the plane,"Jeez. What a drag." The tattooed man would sigh, scratching the back of his neck,"I guess we'd better get to work, hmm? The boss' suitcase is black and has one of those dreamcatchers on the zipper of it." He'd give out the description before beginning his own search, starting near the latch door at the suitcases that didn't fit the description of the boss' luggage that he had given.

"Why aren't you going to actually find him?! He could be hurt and you're just standing there! If you damn students are so brave, then go find Poofles and bring him back! I have connections to the Principal and I'll have you expelled!"
Shizume took a deep breath in and exhaled listening to this tirade. Oh how she just wanted to turn to her and say "Oh it's actually not that bad, if you have connections to my dad." But now she had to let it roll off for now. Her patience has been tried enough today with the bear and this woman. Marchign off into the woods, she followed the softly appearing red wave. The wave was sharp and low. This was not the sound she was expecting to hear. Once her hearing caught up with the whimpering, she went into a run zeroing in on where poofles was. She had to hurry because she had already encounters a bear with a wind quirk, she could only worry about how a regular dog out here against nature would fare.
"Hang in there little guy, Like puck of old I will fly. You'll seen your mama in a bit, then maybe she will end her fit." She said to herself as she neared the sounds of the precious Poofles.

“Boss man?” Katsumi found herself asking as she accompanied the pleasant man to the luggage hold. “He’s in charge of something…” She thought back to how the man was acting towards her. If he was like that to a stranger who was trying to help him...what was he like to his subordinates. The mental image was forming in her head and she had no trouble imagining the large man angrily yelling at his subordinates with a reddened face and spit flying out of his mouth like shells from a machine gun. “I’m...sorry?” She found herself saying sorry and looking at the pleasant man with pity. Then she blinked and the pity was gone, reverting back to her usual professional stoicism.
Without further prompting aside from ‘Ladies first.’ Katsumi hopped into the luggage hold, being careful to not step on anything of worth. “We have a lot of work to do.” She muttered as she eyed the state of the hold. Luggage and their contents were scattered everywhere from the crash. “Black with dreamcatcher attached on to the zipper. Got it.” Repeating the description to herself, she took off in search for the item being described. She had briefly considered using her Quirk but decided against it. She might jumble up everything even more and make things harder for her.

All went according to plan as far as removing this little girl from her constraints went, and Graham had moved on to the problem of getting her off the plane. Well, it wasn't so much a problem as a task, much simpler than the action he had to take before, and as such there was room for him to pose his question. The answer wasn't an unexpected one, a family visit, though the mother wasn't too responsible. Well, he didn't have that much room to talk, his own mother had only ever done the reverse, willfully shipping off her son to faraway shores without so much as a glance. At least this girl's mother wanted to see her.
No, this wasn't the right mindset to have. Surely his mother loved Graham and his brother, and a decent bit more importantly he was traversing the wreckage on autopilot as his thoughts had drifted off. Having walked the path in and out a few times by this point had made the trek easier, certainly, but it still deserved his full attention. Reaching the exit after a moment, he scouted out a reasonably calm spot in the evacuation area to let his little rescuee recover in relative peace.
"I'm sure the last thing on your mum's mind would be buying another ticket!" Graham said, a genuine smile on his face for the first time since he'd made contact with the girl. Quite the silly thing for her to think of, wasn't it? "The airline ought to be the one paying you, as far as money goes there'll be no problem at all for the two of you." Whether or not she understood what he was saying he wasn't sure, but while Graham was walking the last leg of the trip over the forest ground, she'd hopefully be reassured.
"Here we are!" A bit away from the smouldering disaster site, though well within sight, Graham finally placed down his rescuee against a tree. "I suppose I'll stick with you for a bit," he said. There didn't seem to be much more imminent rescuing to be done at the time, and he still wasn't entirely sure of her condition. "Now, is there anything I can do to help you with your legs? Or anything else, for that matter?" he followed up, having crossed his own legs to sit down next to her.

The sound that could have only came from Poofles in the deep, dark forest was picked up quickly by Shizume, and she made haste to try and find the lost dog. With how heavily the smoke was piping into the air and the denseness of the trees, the forest would eat up her figure as the old woman would squint into the forest to try and catch sight of her. She found none,"Finally." A snarky remark was given even when the blue-haired student was no longer there to hear it, but it bothered the woman none to speak behind her back.
As for Shizume, she'd find the faint yipping becoming much louder and closer the further that she made it into the forest. The plane had crashed into a clearing in the woods, but this was far darker than any forest had any right to be. The grass had gotten the taller, the trees thicker. Besides that... how had Poofles made it this far in the first place? A fall like that would have injured the poor mutt, making it fairly hard to get even half this distance with a limp in his step. Something about the forest was unsettling, that was for sure, but heroics was all about conquering fear!
Light would shine through the trees in front of Shizume, and the path she took would lead to a clearing just like the one the plane had landed in. And, in the middle of that clearing, was a Shih Tzu barking at the trees to the left of him. He didn't appear to be hurt surprisingly as his own aggravated yips were making him jump just so slightly. Something was leading him to act this way, and it would finally show itself once the student stepped into the light of the clearing. It stepped out on four legs, the fur that covered it's body black as night shining in the light above.
As soon as it slunk out of the shadows, Poofles was whimpering. A Japanese black bear marched out of the woods back to it's prey, it's eyes on the rat of a dog with intent to kill in it's eyes. It was feasting time, and the bear would surely get to eat it's dinner for today unless someone intervened.
The luggage hatch was unfortunately much more cramped than either Katsumi or the tattooed man had hoped. There was enough room to stand at full height, but the luggage made it harder to move around with ease,"It's kinda tight in here, huh?" He laughed, tossing one of the bags that definitely wasn't his boss' to the side away from him. The pinkette had already confirmed what the bag would look like, busying herself with a pile of her own. The suited man had finished the pile that he'd gone to by himself, looking at name tags and interesting keychains along the way.
It was just their luck that the black suitcase that the two were looking for would be near the bottom of Katsumi's pile, and the man would catch sight of it as soon as it was uncovered by the pinkette,"Aha! There it is!" He smiled, marching over to the student and lifting it with ease,"Nice goin', little lady. Though, I think it would have been much cooler of you to use your Quirk again." A reference to the previous use on his overweight boss, it seemed, but the tattooed man only chuckled as he tossed the suitcase out of the latch and hopped out,"Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. Us Quirkers get enough shit as is~" He winked, holding out his hand to help her out before a certain teacher's booming voice grabbed his attention.
Graham seemed to be the one in the most pleasant of company, however. The girl was happy to have been saved by him, and she smiled graciously when he leaned her up against a tree,"Thank you for staying with me, Mister!" She thanked him, keeping her hands on her lap as she stared down at the legs he offered to help her with,"I usually use a wheelchair, but I think they took it and put it somewhere when I was seated. Took up too much space in the aisle, I guess..." There was obvious discomfort with how she was treated, but she through it regardless,"We get looked at differently... but that's alright, I think. It just means we have a family with other Quirkers..." She was wise beyond her years, and she could have easily spent the rest of the day talking to the boy who saved her. However, it seemed that today had other plans...
Blank had finally managed to escape from the horde of angry passengers,"Ah, man..." He sighed, jumping from the doorway of the plane to land on the grass floor. He noticed Graham sitting alongside a young girl with icicles for legs and Katsumi stood in the luggage hatch, but there was no sign of Shizume anywhere,"Hmm.. that's strange..." Looking around with his hands on his hips, the white-haired teacher couldn't see the blue-haired girl that he didn't even know the name of. He was ready to leave it at that, but something began to itch at the back of his mind in her absence. Something bad. So, instead of asking the other student he was in charge of, Blank stepped up to the woman that Shizume was last with. The permanent scowl was still left on her face, and it was matched with a glare at the young teacher when he stepped up,"Excuse me, Miss, but have you seen one of my students? She has blue hair, real big eyes, and is always thumping her foot like she's got a fantastic song stuck in her head?" Blank pointed to each feature he described of Shizume, his finger clicking against the lense of his gas mask and his foot tapping dramatically on the ground before her response stopped him dead in his tracks,"She went to go find my dog! That way!" The woman snapped, pointing into the dense forest. It only made the feeling itching at the back of his head- what he only referred to as his 'maternal instincts'- kick into overdrive,"Oh dear." And off Blank went, darting through the woods as fast as his legs could take him as he shouted,"Graham! Pink-chan! We're leaving!"
I sectioned this a little differently just for clarity's sake, but please read them all! They'll all be connecting in a second! Please write your next post as if you've met up with Shizume in the clearing. Let's get this action started!

When Shizume broke through into the clearing, she finally saw the Shih Tzu. The precious little thing only had to weigh about between 4 and 7 kilograms. But when the black bear stepped out, Shizume felt the sads return to her heart. She, Graham, and Iida already had to deal with one bear in this forest. And that interaction did not leave her with the warm fuzzies with the animal slayer in her group. A hero's job was to save lives, not take them. So she felt she needed to solve this herself (despite being a registered contributor of the World Wildlife Fund and the Pacifist League). She could roar gain. But that might scare the dog away as well. Not to mention scare the passengers back at the plane. That meant she only had one tool in her list to use, not that she has actually used it yet. It she always felt something different while listening to metal music. For a while, she thought it was just the heavier beats causing her heart to beat harder. But recently she found out in biology class that hard heart pumps release adrenaline into the system. She found during physical education at the track, she had a faster time listening to metal than when compared to another genre with similar bpm. Pulling her bag in front of her, she quickly pulled out her bluetooth over ear headphones, instantly connected to her smartphone. "Cell. Velocitempo Activate." She started running towards the Shih Tzu as the phone randomly pulled up a metal song. The screen on her device illuminating with digital life. Binary flew across the screen as it appeared in Times New Roman MODE VELOCITEMPO Demon Speeding by Rob Zombie For a moment, Shizume though the device was malfunctioning as she only saw grey fill her vision, there was a low volume eerie sound. But her fears were assuaged as a radio style voice came up after a chirp like sound. "Why don't you ask me what it feels like to be a freak?" The metal popped to life with a heavy base and pounding rhythm. Adrenaline coursed through her system as she got just even with the bear. Her eyes, unseen to her, had changed from their normal gold to a bright sunspot yellow. Lightly illuminated. She speed shot up to athletic levels instead of her normal clumsy jogging speed. She knew this wouldn't be able to outrun the ursine, but she had a better chance as her left hand went down to scoop up the Poofles and ran away as fast as her legs could carry her. "Hey, do ya love me. I'm untouchable darkness A dirty black river to get you through this Hey, do ya love me I'm a devil machine (hey do ya love me I'm a devil machine) Get into my world all american dream In the mouth of madness Down in the darkness No more tomorrow Down in the hollow I'm Demon Speeding I'm Demon Speeding I'm Demon Speeding I'm Demon Speeding"After ensuring her passenger was safely in both hands, she turned between trees in narrow proximity to each other and started running back toward the others, unaware that they were making their way to her.

Graham was reasonably content with how he'd handled the little girl's situation up until now, having her placed on the ground. Ah, being thanked like this by eyes like a puppy's was why they did it, wasn't it? The feeling of being responsible for something good, it was undoubtedly an attractive part of the hero's career. Now, she was talking about a wheelchair? That would make sense, walking on those things wouldn't be an enjoyable experience, nor did he figure they contained any muscle fibre. Graham could certainly go back into the wreck to salvage it, perhaps after they were done talking. He'd hate to have to leave her by herself, unable to move.
She'd made a rather interesting point, far as quirkers and their connection went. The sort of heartwarming optimism you'd hear from a child, certainly, and a concept well worth exploring. If we can't rely on ordinary folks, quirkers should stick together, she supposed. "You could say that," he answered with a smile. That was the sort of thinking he'd never been able to put into practice himself, for the longest time he'd been the only quirk-using person he knew. Now, he'd have sat down next to her and kept talking if he hadn't been distracted.
The strange man in the gas mask calling himself their teacher ran past, telling them what he assumed to imply going along with him. To say Graham was surprised would be correct, as he'd have to say a farewell to the little girl. "Well, you heard him. I'll make sure you aren't left behind again, so stay tight and I'll be back in a moment!" he said, keeping up the smile as he got up from his crouched position and darted after Mr Blank at his rather unimpressive running speed, but he did his best. Why exactly they were running had yet to be explained, but he was sure that would become apparent sooner or later.

After Kasumi had dug through the pile of scattered junk and property and found their thing they were looking for, she felt somewhat accomplished. Though it was probably through sheer luck that the target was in her pile, she still accomplished the task given to her as a hero. "It was no problem. Heroes cooperating with civilians and vice versa ensures the safety of the public and makes the jobs of heroes easier." She said as she moved to follow behind the pleasant man. Just as she was reaching out for his hand a voice caught her attention and she frozen to listen.
She tilted her had to the side as she listened to the teacher's instructions. "Duty calls, remain safe citizen." She ignored the hand that was reaching for her and used her Quirk on herself to launch her out of the hatch. It didn't matter why they were leaving, just that they were. A few hops powered by her Quirk and she joined up with the teacher and the other student that she couldn't remember the name of. "What is the situation?" She asked as she landed, her feet skidding to a halt and her body almost stumbling forward.

Shizume was smart to take the safe road instead of the stupid one, speeding up and scooping Poofles into her arms before darting back in the direction she came. The bear, to say the least, was not pleased. It stood on it's hind legs as the blue-haired student bounded towards it, but the swat with it's large clawed paws missed narrowly. Letting out a roar that was loud enough to be heard even through the metal playing through the girl's headphones, the animal took off towards the girl in a fit of rage. It wasn't normal for bears to be this territorial, or even this angry. Something must have made it this agitated, but there were much more pressing issues ahead of her right now.
That being the Japanese black bear sprinting towards her on all fours.
Blank was running through the forest as he had been before this whole mess had unraveled, gaining momentum off of branches he saw with precise movements. The two students that he had led towards the airplane had joined him once more, and the pink-haired student inquired about the current task at hand,"I can't shake the feeling that something bad is going to happen...! It's a hunch, but ole Blank-sensei's hunch has never been wrong!" The dark feeling in his gut had still put his stomach in knots, and it was confirmed when they began to come across the clearing. Shizume darted out of the light and back into the dense forest, and Blank slid to a stop and waved for her to do the same,"What is it, Blue-ch-" The heavy steps against the forest floor were the only answer he needed, and the hefty breaths that came with it didn't put his mind at ease. He knew that he wouldn't be able to defend his students single-handedly, especially against a fully-grown bear,"Alright, students, we've got to think creatively on this... Blue-chan, get the dog to safety and go grab the really big red-haired teacher...!" Not specifying whether he meant the large librarian or the even larger physical education teacher, the teacher let Shizume do her thing. The bear was drawing closer, however, and the group had to think fast.
"We can't let the bear get any closer to the civilians! Evasive maneuvers until Blue-chan gets back with backup! We can poke at the bear to keep it at bay! Now, one of you catch me!" Blank belted out orders, leaping into the air as light surrounded the entirety of his body. The glowing silhouette shifted from a man into a sword- a longsword, specifically- and would fall into the hands of whoever grabbed it first. The name 'Excalibur' was carved into the hilt, giving away the love that the teacher held for history. It was then when the bear emerged from between tall trees, still running at the same speed as before towards the group. Around them was everything you'd normally find in a forest- trees, fallen branches, rocks- and the crew would have to improvise and use what was at their limited disposal in their environment to stop the bear from finding the civilians on the other side of the forest.
As the post suggests, we'll be having another teacher (or librarian) drop in! Remember, don't be shy to ask for an extension! Also, it's first come first serve on whomever gets to wield Blank!

Shizume continued her run back to the crash site after receiving instruction from her teacher. She was loathed to leave it in the hands of Ursine Killer Graham, so as she crossed by Iida, she let out a quick “As I fly, don’t let it die.” to her.
The rest of the forest sort of flew by with the metal pumping adrenaline through her veins. “Hey, do ya love it when the kids are screaming Wrecking on the road violate their dreaming Hey, do ya love to see the filth in the clean (hey do ya love to see the filth in the clean) Get into the gone all American dream In the mouth of madness Down in the darkness No more tomorrow Down in the hollow I'm demon speeding I'm demon speeding I'm demon speeding I'm demon speeding”
Breaking rather abruptly into the clearing, she came right by the Woman, leapt over the log and stopped for just the moment to pass the puppy off to the woman. Without so much of another word, she ran right over to the person she was told to retrieve. However, this came into a conundrum. Both Ketsuki Gyoza and Tobias Murakami within ease eye sight. Still high on the adrenaline of the metal, she ran over to both. “Blank-sensei has me make you aware, we need your help dealing with a bear.” First to one and then the other. Not really waiting for a proper response, mostly because of the adrenaline, she ran right back into the woods to lead which ever, or possibly both because she did ask both, to the battle site.

SITUATION NORMAL TOBIAS WAS ON HIS WAY BACK DOWN the hill from the bus, having ushered an elderly man with broken ribs, or perhaps a punctured lung, to the warmth of the bus while they all collectively waited for paramedics to arrive. On one hand, it felt negligent to leave the old man to fend for himself-- but there was a sorer need for Tobias at the site of the crash. As such, he was returning with little hesitation, moving a almost a haphazard speed.
The man nodded to Ketsueki as he passed, only to be interrupted by a blue-haired, wild-eyed student in headphones. She spoke quickly, almost too quick for the crimson gentleman to comprehend. As a matter fact, Tobias only caught "Blank-sensei" and "bear".
"A bear-?!" the teacher reiterated, sounding understandably worried. At least Blank had had the good sense to send a student for back-up, rather than charging off on his own. Tobias followed the teen, his heart hammering. While this whole ordeal was nerve-wracking, the thought of his students (and of Blank-sensei) being in immediate danger from a bear was absolutely petrifying.
Tobias arrived at the scene, breath heaving, hazel eyes scouring the area for Blank.
A familiar sword spiraled through the air then stuck it self, slantwise, in the snow.
Tobias grimaced, striding towards the felled weapon. He took the hilt up in a warm hand, and lifted it with ease.
"Good evening, students!" he greeted, his voice booming. It was so contrary to his usual, softspoken sensibilities, "Our aim is to incapacitate, not to kill. Go for the back of the legs, avoid the teeth and claws, capisce?"
He spoke with enough decisiveness to perhaps even be mistakeable for Gyoza-sensei, if it weren't for the glasses perched on his nose.
"You ready, old friend?" Tobias asked, holding the flat of Blank's blade in his palm. His voice had dropped low again, perhaps in an attempt to be reassuring. In junior high, the redhead had briefly dabbled in kendo, before realizing that his size made him slow and quickly jumping ship to jiujutsu. But Blank had been insistent that the bespectacled man practice using him "in case of an emergency", even if the redhead's primary quirk benefit was "getting really, really hot". Not the best power to have wheen wielding a metal weapon. But there was no changing Blank's mind once it was made-up.
"I'll take care of you, if you take care of me," he concluded, assuming a stance and raising the blade, one hand on the hilt, the other on the pommel.

Katsumi wasn’t going to argue the validity of ‘having a feeling about something’ in a dangerous situation. The teachers were more experienced than her and have been doing the hero thing for a lot longer that she was, they’d probably developed an instinct regarding these things. Though she did have to wonder how it would take for her to develop her own ‘dangerous situation sense’. She quietly followed after the teacher, who she now knew was named Blank, until they had found the missing person of the group, the girl designated as Blue. ‘Why...why is it a bear again?’ She thought to herself as the bear approached them She let out a sigh as she mentally ticked up the counter on bear encounters. At least this one didn’t seem to be a bear with a Quirk.
Her hand moved to user her Quirk on the sword that Blank had turned into only for her to pause midway as she saw her action wasn’t needed. Another person had arrived to help and had taken up the blade. She let out a breathe in relief at the presence of a second teacher. “Roger. Objective set to incapacitation of hostiles.” She declared as she shuffled back to add distance between her and the bear. “IIda Katsumi, temporary designation Pink. I will provide range support.”
She motions her right arm forward dramatically and launches her wave in the direction of the bear. The wave by itself does nothing, even if it hits the bear, but it’s effect on certain objects would show its effects shortly. Rocks that the wave struck rattled briefly before suddenly shooting towards the bear with great speed.

Having left a little girl behind, Graham could only hope whatever Blank had caught on to would be dealt with swiftly. Why, he hadn't even received her name! The poor soul, her legs dooming her to a wheelchair and all, but at least she'd seemed to have a solid head on those shoulders. Along with that, the lack of moments of rest between dashing rescues was bound to catch up with him eventually, particularly if he'd have to keep running for much longer. Though, as Shizume blew past them in the opposite direction, he had the feeling they'd reached their destination, and oh bother.
As though the first bear attack hadn't been enough, mother nature dearest had decided to send another their way this lovely day. Frankly, the other one hadn't gone so well for the entire group, and he'd be a straight liar to say he hadn't been somewhat severely in the wrong. The feeling of guilt in his stomach had settled since then, leaving room aplenty for nerves, and the teacher turning into a bloody sword didn't solve much. The only instruction he had was to keep the bear at bay, and lord knew he wouldn't hurt this one. Not that he had many tools to that extent at the moment, the only carbon weapon he'd brought along was lost somewhere around the first encounter, leaving him with the bits of solidified soot gathered from the smoke around the scene. Not to worry, he'd come up with something. Meanwhile, the person-sword was picked up, another teacher he wasn't familiar with having arrived. As though to rub salt into the wound, the sole instruction was not to go for the kill, and the slightly sour look on Graham's face wasn't lifted.
Restraining it seemed like a solid plan, so while Pink, er, Katsumi initiated her quirk he'd take a moment shaping the carbon bars into one piece, a U-shaped brace he'd thought to pin one of its legs to the ground with. It wasn't much bigger than its ankle, so that'd be the target. Graham tossed the piece into the air, keeping it afloat between them and the bear, and if it were to charge forward he'd try to fly it into position to do what it was intended to, pull the animal back and leave it open for the teacher to strike if he saw fit.

Blank's sword form had landed tip-first into the ground as the bear drew closer. Part of him had expected either of the students to be the first one's to take the hilt in their hands, but it was a familiar grip around him that he felt instead,"To-chan...!" The blade vibrated excitedly at the appearance of his friend, with Shizume successful in her attempts at grabbing support,"It's good that you're here, To-chan! Though... I wish you would have caught me before I landed on my head..." The metallic voice held within the sword sighed before it was readied in Tobias' large hands to thwart the bear's attacks. It was true that the animal was in a frenzy, and there was no good reason for it. There was surely enough things at the moment to be upset with, but a ferocious beast such as this one needn't worry about any of them. A plane crash nearby couldn't affect them in the slightest...
Right?
The pinkette activated her Quirk as a wave swept across the forest floor. Shortly after, rocks were being pelted at the bear that was readying to strike. It had just stood on it's hind legs to slam onto the nearest target, but the assault by both Katsumi's rocks and Graham's carbon weapon was enough to force the bear back down to all fours. It flinched and tried to swat at the things, but the assault was too heavy for it to stop all at once. Agitated, no doubt, the beast let out a loud roar at the group. The blade that was the 1-A Homeroom teacher couldn't hold back the squeak of fear that escaped his metal form, the sword shivering at the sound,"Ah, I think we should try to do something other than look cool, To-chan!" Blank asked his librarian friend as he was able to do little in the sword form he had taken.
Though, as soon as it was said, the beast was running back towards the clearing. It's frustrated snorts could be heard as heavy paws hitting along the ground would fade away from the group, not looking back once. It gave up.
Blank wiggled out of Toby's grip and shifted back to his much more welcoming form. Or, as welcoming as a gas mask could be,"Bears are skittish creatures, y'know! I wonder what got it so angry, though...!" The teacher thought on it for a second, but ultimately shrugged it off,"I know it was short-lived, but I have to applaud you all! The work you did today gives an old man hope for the fate of modern Heroics!" The man began to monologue, ushering his students back to the plane crash with much less urgency. Blank didn't stop speaking until they were back at the site, when the obese man that Katsumi had helped earlier greeted them at the forest's edge. The tattooed man, his employee, accompanied him, and the boss had pushed over the girl that Graham had the pleasure of meeting. She had found her wheelchair, yet the smile she had was still sad,"Mister..." She started, her hands fidgeting,"They found some dead bear cubs near the plane... It looks like they were squashed by the trees that fell..." The anger of the bear made sense now, and Blank frowned. All it wanted to do was protect it's family, and then it was taken from it so easily. It was sad, really,"But... this man knows my mama...! He offered to buy me a new ticket, Mister!" Though the fate of the bear cubs was still weighing on her mind, the prospect of being able to be reunited with her mother brought a wider smile to her face. The large man nodded, and began wheeling her away with his underling in tow. That didn't, however, stop her from waving,"Goodbye, Mister! Thank you for saving me! Maybe we'll meet again!"
With the pressing matters of the crash attended to, Blank slouched against the tree closest to him,"Ah... This day has me beat!" He sighed melodramatically before crossing his arms. The students wouldn't be able to see it, but a wide smirk tugged at his lips,"Though... I think you three have earned yourself a complimentary pizza party! To-chan's treat!"
Alright! With that, this will be the last of my posts! One more round from all of you, and the thread is officially completed! It ended a bit too abruptly for my liking, but I would rather end it now than drag it on for four more rounds :blobsweat: And, hey, y'all get a pizza party!!

With everything solved and over with by the time Shizume got back, she just kind of slogged her way into the clearing. Her music switching in her headset from the heavy metal of a rock legend to a soft orchestral piece. She dropped onto a fallen tree log and laid out. “Andro a letto presto. Sono contento.” Her arms came up right under her head, missing everything from the ones that the other two had helped.
Though honestly, Shizume would have been too sad to hear that dead bear cubs were there in the forest. She was super sad that Graham had nearly killed one already. This was something she did not need to know. Right now, all she needed was a nap. A quick power nap of maybe three minutes. Pizza parties would have to wait. Though hopefully the others wouldn’t have to. She was certain she could catch up with at least someone else from the hero school once she woke up. And after two bear encounters that went bad, if another bear walked up on her while she slept, she would probably just cuddle it right before it started to eat her. She was that tired. A negative consequence of Velocitempo.
