School Insight and Boys being Boys

Come January...

Days after School Break, was the Entrance Exams.

Shizuku came in her school uniform, save for the fact that she wore lace-up boots.

'Well, here we are.' she mused.

Even though she applied for the Written Mock Exams and wrote what her Quirk can do - but not its full scope - she was NOT exempt from the Practical Exams as she hoped. Hell, she can't even bring weapons with her!

"Humm...good thing I took on Martial Arts as a precaution growing up and learned from Fon years ago." she thought as she sorely missed the Arcobaleno who used to be a constant in her life. Sure in other lives, she has had different Guardians but...its not just the same.

Stupid being a Trinisette.

There was even one century where they were all alone as there was no one strong enough to bond with them, making for quite, a lonely century that Byakuran ensured he finds her and Tsuna fast and basically 'arranged' cohabitation because loneliness ate away hard. Being with fellow Skies eased the pain somehow.

So upon settling down in the Auditorium...Present Mic told them the specs of the Practical Exams.

During the practical exam, candidates conduct mock battles in replica urban settings. Examinees are given ten minutes to use their Quirks to immobilize robotic villains in order to score points depending on the robot's point value. The more points one examinee earns, the higher their chance is to get accepted into U.A. High.

Candidates are not allowed to fight other candidates. Doing so results in disqualification. Students hailing from the same middle school are placed in different testing areas to avoid potential cooperation.

They'll be in 'city blocks' with Villain Bots that have specific amount of points. But Arena Traps are worthless despite...difficulty levels.

At least, 50 points is the passing mark and a number of villain bots are limited...and acceptance rates is only 79 this year.

In Japan, there's only four schools that train Heroes. They are also the schools with the least number of students.

And in Hero Classes alone, only 17 per class. Even then only 1% ever actually make it to Pro-Herohood. The rest, drop out as standards are very strict.

Shizuku relied on Cloud Flames to give herself superhuman strength and durability, knowing where exactly, the 3-pointers are while doing Rescue and Healing, earning herself 30 per Villain Points and Rescue Points. The idea came from Hibari Kyoya who uses his flames in such a manner, being the fighting maniac that he was.

She also made a friend in a girl she rescued when an Arena Trap got activated.

But...

Fate acts in funny ways.

Thus, at school...

'Oh! it's you!' the girl chimed. 'I'm glad we're in the same class.' she stated happily upon seeing Shizuku.

'Same here.' said Shizuku kindly. 'Fate works in funny ways.' "Or rather, not!"

The staff knows what they're damn doing.

High grades aside, the people in this room are the future solely for ability...but not names for now...

They all have great promise in offense and defense, stealth and support. This room contains a well-meshed army of students...assuming they don't drop out, that is. And some are relatives of pro-heroes even.

She made inward pointed glances at Iida Tenya, the 4th Generation Ingenium and Todoroki Shouto, the son of Endeavor.

From behind a small closet behind the teacher's desk, Eraserhead, a.k.a Aizawa Shouta watched the class.

He was rather looking forward to seeing how much he can mess with them, as he once expelled a whole class last year...for being idiots.

Some needed some work, others needs further judgment...then there's 'Yuni-chan'.

Recovery Girl and All-Might told him the identity of Yuni-chan since she was in his class.

The girl was a pro...as a frigging child. Or rather, had the attitude of a pro when normally, youngsters are eager to prove themselves and cause more trouble than they're worth. She stayed put in the tent, cooked, sat put again and waited for injured to come and when Villains came, she used a metal staff given to her by NightEye as a weapon to defeat the Villains and eagerly drugged them to the gills with Quirk Suppressants that it took months in Tartarus but even then...they're still drugged daily via food anyway!

She got daily visitations from Recovery Girl since, and her attitude impressed the old biddy. Especially with if used 'the right way', she's basically the deadliest person in class with just a touch. Recovery Girl would tell him that the scariest people on Earth, are always Medics and Shizuku is basically the scariest medic alive if she reached her full potential. She can make one's medical life hell on a whim it was good she grew up with a good attentive mother and NightEye keeping an eye on the pair for reasons the man never said.

But said old biddy was worried because 'Sometimes, she has eyes that look so old. Eyes that saw plenty like we have. No child should have such eyes and it worries me.'

Indeed, its worrying. Her Profile ID says it all. Sure she smiled for the camera...but a lot of teachers remarked 'she looked old'!

Quirk Apprehension Test...

Aizawa twitched.

Shizuku was easily the Top Girl in class, while followed by Yaoyorozu, an ojousama from a rich family but shockingly has a great condition he'd never expect an ojousama to have, then Todoroki and Bakugo. Top Four in the class. The others, need some work...

He went to call his student after class, when the day ended.

'You called, sensei?' Shizuku asked Aizawa as she entered his office.

'Aa. I was among the few privy to your identity and Quirk.' said Aizawa. 'Because something foul is afoot but sadly, we have no way of figuring out hows, whys, and whens.' he said. 'But we'll get to that later. We've gotten very creative in improvising since stuff always happens.' he said. 'So are you truly a student, or one with a special function?'

'...a little bit of both, you can say.' said Shizuku, her eyes glowing. 'All For One is rebuilding as we speak. If worst comes to worst, I have permission to use the scarier aspects of my Quirk, provided I justify it afterwards with a Written Report.' she sighed. 'This ability can commit murder after all and make it look normal.'

'Hey, any doctor worth their salt can tell you know.' Aizawa snorted. 'They can tell if cancer progressed normally or too abnormally-fast or something. Have a little faith.'

'Well, some aren't worth their degree.' Shizuku snorted. 'I had to go undercover as a kid since who'd suspect a kid? Not in dangerous settings I assure you. I had to weed out those abusing their positions and extorting customers or worse, medical patients. Then after I get incriminating stuff...let's just say losing their licenses is the least of their worries.'

'Oi, you're not another Hawks, are you?' Aizawa frowned. The man was once his student and yet...

'Ah, heard of him...nope. The HPSC is not behind me and my backer hated their guts for Hawks-san's situation since he's basically shanghai-ed into it whether he likes it or not. So my backer protects me by keeping me anonymous otherwise I'd be just like him.' Shizuku quipped. 'I rarely ever get jobs for obvious reasons but hey, its stuff I'll do someday anyway.'

'So what is your purpose to be a hero, if ever? I get 'I wanna be like All-Might', or fame, money, and family pressure all the time it tends to get redundant. I want something original next.' said Aizawa. 'I had a talk with your classmates, one day at a time, I saved you for last on purpose.'

'My purpose as a Hero, huh?' Shizuku mused. 'Truthfully I have no selfish reasons and wanting for nothing. My mom and I are financially-secure for the rest of our lives though mom went to get a job out of boredom anyway. As a Healer, no doubt everyone expected that I'll be the dead weight in crisis and stuff as enemies will gun for my kind first as culling off the support, the fighters go down fast kind of logic.' she explained. 'Well, I suppose I should teach the world why we doctors are the scariest on earth if well-motivated, no? I scared Bakugo enough back in Junior High as it is...and we're strong in our own way as long as we're creative enough. You don't have to be All-Might level to prove your worth as a Hero but on what you can do and what and how you think a hero should be.'

"T-this girl..." Aizawa twitched as Shizuku went Mafia Donna smile on him. 'Hooo? Then what?'

'A hero is someone who gives hope. The light that shines on darkness and hold out their hand to those in that darkness who wanted hope to get away from the pits. That's what a Hero should be. But society has other ideas when thinking of that person, leaning more into social media aspects of ideas.' said Shizuku. 'So far only one person fit that bill. No one else so I want to be the second person to do it. He isn't young forever after all...but still, better find someone young because you're not around forever.'

'Sounds easy enough, but hard to actually do.' Aizawa smirked. 'At least I heard something different from you.' he said. 'But All-Might might be happy to know what you think.'

'I am here.' Shizuku uttered All-Might's quote. 'His ever famous quote when he rescues victims. How do you think victims feel when he arrives with that quote with a wide smile on his face while they're helpless? Its psychological positive impact on the victims he rescues...while it inspires fear and 'oh, fuck me sideways' from Villains.' Aizawa raised an eyebrow from her choice language. He wondered if being classmates with Bakugo was a negative influence. 'Two words inspire both feelings. He's basically the Pillar of Heroes and the shinigami to Villains...but one can't deny the guy's rich and famous, the materialistic goals everyone else focused on. While practicality is good and all as living in Japan is expensive, that does not inspire society in a good way at all. It leads to Villain Growth.'

'Villain Growth?' Aizawa frowned.

'Hero-Killer Stain is still around isn't he?' Aizawa's eyes went flinty. 'He only ever respected All-Might as a true hero and sees other heroes behind as garbage for wanting fame and money instead of inspiring hope. He goes around with that mindset, testing heroes for their spirit as heroes. Those who fail always die while those who survives him is left alone but depending on their answer, a little beat-up to either maimed for life. A twisted form of Vigilantism but he attacks heroes, not villains. He is aware that the light of hope cannot be around forever, thus is looking for someone like All-Might as well. There are other villains with his mindset as well and may have encountered heroes that failed them and crushed their trust in Heroes, leading to this brand of hatred and villainy.' said Shizuku softly.

'Youth these days is influenced negatively and a vicious cycle too...that their futures will be cut short because of that hatred. We can only blame their upbringing as kids for that. Heck, in my junior high school, kids my age are biasedly treated based on how 'cool' their Quirks are that there's a social hierarchy there and bullying rampant no thanks to teachers of all people so I'd say you have them to blame for Bakugo's mindset for three years that Elementary School disciplining went to the trash can. I'd say you and the other teachers have work to do to keep everyone else from being killed by the Hero-Killer.' Shizuku sighed. 'I've lost count how many kids came to me for bullying and healing, all injured and as Class Rep back then I've lost count how many fights I had to break up. Ask Bakugo-kun for that since I had to stop him too many times.'

'Well, we'll think about that, Yuni.' said Aizawa. 'By the way, is that your Hero name? It sounds more like a pet name.'

'Nah...its a code name back in my jobs and its untraceable. My Hero Name is something else.' Shizuku smiled. 'Hero names are always based on powers or character as a person. Call it being unique.'

'Ah, speaking of Class Rep, we haven't decided that yet...off you go.'

That day, teachers from the hero classes gathered to listen to recordings of student interviews to catch 'personality red flags' to deal with it as soon as possible within three years.

When they came to some recordings, they separated those with good motivations and those with red flags.

'Humm...we have about 35% good ones and 65% red flags out of 34 students in heroics classes.' said Nezu as they listened to all recordings regarding students' motivations to be a hero. 'We need to nip some problems in the bud, too.'

'And lastly, about Yuni-chan...you're saving her for last on purpose, Aizawa.' said Recovery Girl.

'Yeah. Everyone else is boring and concerning, so I'm saving her for last.' Aizawa grinned as he played their conversation earlier...

'Uweee...that kiddo is something else.' Yamada croaked, wide-eyed when the recording is over.

'Well...wow.' Kayama whistled. 'Is that what a kid should say?' she asked incredulously.

'That girl is sometimes too old beyond her age.' Shuzenji shook her head.

'I had no idea even a Villain likes me.' said Yagi, astonished in his true form. A slender man*. 'I thought I'm universally-hated by Villains!'

'Stain is just weird.' said Kan. 'But this is food for thought. How many people have been crushed by our alumni just for influencing their own popularities in the media, turning them into anti-heroes?'

'Yes, I'm worried about that too.' said Ishiyama, shaking his head in dismay. 'Heroes actually produce Villains...we have to stop this somehow.'

'But hey man, I hate to admit this but being a Hero doesn't pay much.' said Yamada morosely. 'Sure we save the day but we spend our cash on meds, y'know? And being beat-up for doing our jobs is expensive. Ouch. Shouldn't we teach these kids the reality of what being a hero is?' he said. 'I do side jobs as a DJ and a Teacher just to live normally while saving up for med bills. Ain't you guys the same?'

Some teachers got comical arrows that pierced them hard for that.

'Oi oi, that could actually discourage them from the job...though I agree but still, I have my own worries about that.' said Snipe.

'Well, as teachers we should nip such problems in the bud early on.' said Nezu. 'We will soon have a game-plan in taking care of our red flags. But until then, school activities continue as usual. I will write a program to be followed to deal with this 65%. Its just a guideline, but you guys are to do it your way, and go Plus Ultra as we cannot fail these children as their previous teachers, even their own parents horribly failed them.' he shook his head in disapproval. 'Unbelievable.'

'Its our turn to do these kids right, I say we do it.' said Ectoplasm. 'Maybe if we did go about this the right way, it can also potentially influence their future parenting skills in rearing the next generation. I agree, we're not around forever.'

'While I prepare guidelines, you teachers should also think of your own methods as well.' Nezu advised. 'For you are closer to the children than I am.'

After Battle Training from All-Might...

This class was not just for battle experience but to also show their peers what they can do, and earn respect in class.

That was the true purpose of this test, All-Might thought. He paired up the students based on ability after having them wear their costumes provided by a Support Company.

At the Locker Rooms...

Well, comparisons began immediately.

At the boys, comparison was based on how great their body looks in terms of muscle. At the girls' side...same...but with shape issues.

Mina, Momo and Shizuku easily fit the 'sexy category'.

'Oi Mineta, you don't eavesdrop into the walls listening to girls!' Iida scolded.

'Women compare sizes at this age...' Mineta drooled, already changed into his costume. 'Its always hard to tell a girl's figure due to uniforms so comparison comes in the Locker Rooms!'

'I think you're a bit late about that!' Kaminari laughed, 'Comparison happened ages ago on Aizawa-sensei's Quirk Test!'

'WHAT?!'

'Hagakure's invisible so nobody can really tell, but we got three hot girls in class!' Sero grinned. 'Its Ashido, Midoriya and Yaoyorozu!'

'Yeah, we scored the best lookin' gals right?' Kaminari cheered.

'NOOO! You guys could have told me they made comparisons last week!' Mineta wailed. 'Aren't I your comrade?! Who has the best sizes? Who?!'

'In boobs-wise its Ashido...she's easily an E-Cup!' Kaminari grinned with thumbs-up as the boys froze. 'Yaoyorozu and Midoriya are D-cups...by the way, its Midoriya-chan who made sizes.' he said. 'She said Asui-chan and Uraraka-chan are a C and Jirou's a B.'

'I can't believe you guys!' Iida wailed, waving his arms in frantic robotic motions. 'You're perving on your female classmates!'

'This is nuts.' Bakugo scoffed. 'What's the deal about sizes and letters anyway?'

'Its about appeal, supposedly.' said Aoyama. 'Women these days base sizes on BWH you know? Bust, Waist and Hip.' he lectured. 'Those three sizes determine how they can attract future boyfriends and husbands according to my Maman. They shine based on those sizes!'

'Talk about superficial and ridiculous.' Tokoyami huffed. 'I aim for personality. What is beauty if what's within is poison and thorns? Its rare to find a genuinely lovely flower among beauties nowadays.'

'That's right too.' said Aoyama. 'Maman would tell me to find true flowers to bring home one day!'

'What about you guys?' Sato asked. 'Personality or looks?'

'Hush! They're comparing costumes!' Mineta hissed as he pressed his ears on the walls.

Later...

Yup, nobody can see Hagakure but eyes fell on the girls.

Momo's costume is basically a revealing crimson leotard and boots that go downward with the two utility belts wide enough to conceal her hips. Reason for this is she needs skin exposure without going into R-Rated territory for her Quirk, sporting a sexy but thick, athletic build...due to the fact she eats a lot for her Quirk as well.

Mina has a very shapely-curvy body, her costume would make her a better fit in Women's Wrestling Federation. Her costume consists of a plain white mask over her eyes, and a purple and turquoise skintight bodysuit with a camouflage pattern, ending just above her breasts. Over this, she wears a cropped, sleeveless tan-colored waistcoat with white fur along its collar, which she leaves unbuttoned.

Ochako's is very slender and petite but has impressive shape that went well with being an hourglass. Her costume is something out of a space-inspired anime show, but at least with originality. Her hero costume consists of a black full-body suit with a pale pink design down the middle of her torso, two black circles on her chest and a black rectangle below her waist, running between her legs, and two more pink patches over her shoulders, both cut off by darker pink armbands, matching the thick choker around her neck. She has circular wrist guards, a dark pink handle on the back of each one, wide knee-high boots and a belt around her waist a circle embedded into the centre where the two pieces join up, a helmet with a tinted visor sometimes worn on her head, all of which are the same pale pink color.

Asui has a very frail build, with large hands and feet...considering she's a frog. Her costume is also very froggy. Her hero costume is a bright green turtleneck bodysuit, a tan-colored glove on each hand with a large buckle on each wrist-guard, and two matching belts, one above her breasts, a strap at either side going around her shoulders, and one around her waist, little green dots embedded into it all the way round. Two black lines run all the way down her suit, each framed with yellow, and she wears tight black boots with markings in the shape of a V on her thighs, green webbed flippers resembling frogs' toes on her feet. She wears a headband, its color matching that of her gloves, and goggles with dark green-tinted lenses attached on either side.

Jirou dresses like what one would expect out of a punk rockster, and her all-black costume hid her shape more than flaunt it. Mineta lampshaded on it, earning him a world of pain from the girl.

Shizuku's costume was all-white, accented with orange. Her hat was inspired out of a button mushroom with two thick orange lines at the side with golden tassels, strapped to her chin comfortably and covering her forehead. She has an orange mantle with a chinese collar and platinum-white pauldrons just enough to cover her shoulders, and silver arm protectors that sembled whats she wore in her first life, but has lily patterns on the armor accessories. Flowing from her back, are six wide orange straps instead of a cape linked to her mantle. But her hat has the Giglio Nero symbol and kept an applicable tattoo on her face. The rest of her outfit is a very form-fitting white, long-sleeved bodysuit and a dark orange utility belt around her waist. The yellow-orange color accent into the leotard went from her neckline straight to the crotch area. Her thighs have utility belts as well, designed to have tasers! On her feet are dark-orange boots with white lace.

'WOW!'

'The girls are gorgeous!'

'Ohoho! The kids look cool though some can use some work.' said Kayama-sensei as she got the white board and camera ready.

'Alright! All you kids line up here by the white board for a full-body photo for your school profile, photos of you in your costumes before we proceed, Midnight-sensei will be the one taking the pictures and updating your school profile!' said Yagi-sensei. 'Then we can proceed to Battle Simulations!'

'By the way Midoriya-chan, why straps and not a cape?' Asui asked Shizuku, picking up a strap near her.

'Oh these? They're Capture Weapons, see?' Shizuku chirped cheerfully, while restraining Mineta into a mummy for trying to touch her butt. Nearby boys popped their eyes out upon seeing the straps move and wrap Mineta up. 'Also useful for Villains...'

'Ahhh, very effective-kero.' Asui nodded in amusement.

'Yup, we should be near her just incase.' said Jirou darkly, glaring at Mineta.

'Dude, is that a diaper?! Kyahahaha!' Kirishima, Kaminari and Sero guffawed at Mineta's er...waist-down...

'ITS NOT A DIAPER BUT THEY MESSED UP MY COSTUME! I WANT IT REDESIGNED!' Mineta wailed in despair.

A:N-

1*- Considering Shizuku's abilities and All-Might's body slightly compromised in his rehab years due to gaining a 'shortened intestine', he had to rely on very-enhanced IV Drips courtesy of Cloud Flames and Sun Flames to activate his body into healing by absorbing all nutrients, until he's safe to eat solids again, hence his form while in Canon, he's a skeletal ghost in body.
