Hello, my friends and welcome back to another chapter of The Green-Haired Warden.

Enjoy.

Chapter 4: The Princess Syndrome

Deku was in his home eating breakfast with his mother. Inko Midoriya is a beautiful woman with a slim figure and a dark green hair like her son, a ponytail set on the left side of her head. She is a kind woman, Inko Midoriya, always supporting her son with his dreams and is known for helping her neighbors whenever she could, making her well liked and respected.

"So how are you doing at the academy so far, sweetie?" She asks with a soft smile.

Deku gulps down the last bit of rice on his plate. "Everything's great, the teachers are nice and they help me out a lot, I've made friends too!" He says with a big smile.

"That is good to hear, Izuku," Inko says with another smile. She picks up her and her son's plate and brings them to the sink. "So, I heard from Mitsuki that Katsuki is attending the academy as well."

Deku gains a sad look as he stares at the table. "Y-yeah, she is."

Inko notices the look on her son's face, sympathy flashing across her face. "Things are still cold between you, I guess."

Deku sighs, "Yeah, though I still don't know what I did to make her hate me."

"She doesn't hate you, sweetie," Inko assures him as she washes the dishes. Unlike Deku, she knows the reason for Katsuki's attitude towards her son. "She just… needs to figure some things out for herself, that's all."

Deku looks at his mother with curiosity. "What things?"

Inko shakes her head. "That is not for me to tell, sweetie."

Deku visibly slumps in his seat. "Oh."

Inko decides to change the subject to something else. "On a different note, dear. You should get ready for school, Mari and Momo will be here to pick you up at any minute."

"Oh, right!" Deku quickly gets up and run up the stairs to his room to get changed.

Inko giggles softly to herself. 'Its good to see Deku with old friends. Though those two more than likely want to be more than friends.'

The doorbell rings, signaling the arrival of the two Council Presidents. Inko wipes her hands clean, heads to the door and opens it to see an amusing sight. The two girls were glaring daggers at each other as they stood on the front doorstep, yet instantly switched to beaming smiles when Inko opened the door, trying to act like they weren't just attempting to kill each other with a stare. Inko wasn't fooled of course, after all, this wasn't the first time this has happened and it most assuredly won't be the last.

'The only difference is that Katsuki isn't here as well.' Thought Inko with a sad smile. 'I hope she comes back to her old self soon, I know Deku misses her a lot.'

"Hello, girls." She greets the two girls with a smile, "Deku will be down in a few moments, would you like a cup of tea while you wait?"

"I would love some, Mrs. Midoriya." The two replies in sync, causing the two to once again to glare at each other.

Inko giggles softly again, 'these two are too precious'.

"Well, what are you two standing there for? Come on in and get yourselves comfortable." She says with another smile. 'I am so glad that Deku was able to reunite with his friends. Oh, my baby boy, you are growing up so fast.' She thinks with tears of happiness forming in her eyes.

(On the route to School)

After having some tea with Inko and greeting Deku when he came down all ready for school, Mari and Momo said their goodbyes to the mother of their childhood friend and crush while also saying thank you for the wonderful tea, (nobody makes tea like Inko Midoriya), the three set off for school.

As they were walking, Deku was nervously looking back and forth at his two friends. "U-um, Mari-chan? Momo-chan? Are you two okay?"

Why is he asking this? You may be wondering? Well, you see the situation is this. Our hero, our adorable little cinnamon roll whose name is Deku, is right at this moment in time caught between his childhood friends as they each hold one of his arms tightly in their grasp. His right arm is being held by Momo while his left is being held by Mari. And this is not even the worst part of Deku's plight, oh no, the worst part… is the fact that his arms are pressing against the two ladies bosoms. So you might understand why Deku is growing increasingly red in the face and near to fainting right there.

"Of course we are okay, Deku," Mari says with a smile.

"Yes, why do you ask?" Momo questions as she leans more towards Deku. "Is something wrong?"

Deku feels their bodies get close, too close. 'What do I do?!' Deku screams in his mind, his body on full panic mode.

"Hey, Deku!"

'I'm saved!'

He and the two girls holding him between them turn to see Ochaco Uraraka running towards them, a big smile on her face.

'Thank you, Uraraka! THANK YOU!' As Deku continued to thank the only other girl he knows from the academy besides Mari, Momo, and Katsuki of course, the two presidents trained their eyes on Ochaco, evaluating her threat level.

What they see is a short petite girl barely over five feet in height, her skin fair and seemed to have an even present pink blush on her cheeks. Her eyes are large and round with irises that are warm brown in color. Shoulder-length and about the same color as her eyes, her hair is bobbed and curved inwards at the ends, two longer clumps taking the same shape on either side of her face, and short bangs that reach a quarter of the way down her forehead. All in all, she is a very cute and attractive young woman.

Threat Level 5: The threat is too cute for words.

Ochaco stops running as she reaches them, panting for breath, her smile still on her face.

"Whew, I really need to run more often," Ochaco says with a cute laugh, causing Deku to blush while his childhood friends to increase their hold.

"You are Ochaco Uraraka, a first-year student correct?" Momo asks with a smile in return. Just because she thinks this girl is a threat doesn't mean she shouldn't be polite, Momo's parents raised her better than that.

"Yep!" Ochaco replies happily. "And your President of The Student Council, Yaoyorozu-senpai. It is really nice to meet you." She says with a bow. She then turns to Mari and bows again. "It is really nice to meet you as well, Kurihara-senpai."

Mari gives the petite girl a cold stare, unlike Momo she couldn't care less about being nice to whom she considers a threat.

Ochaco wilts a little under the cold stare, not knowing what she did to gain such a look.

Momo rolls her eyes. "Mari, stop that, you are scaring the poor girl." She sends an apologetic smile at Ochaco. "Sorry about her."

Ochaco waves her hands, "It's fine, really."

Deku notices that they reached the entrance to Hachimitsu Academy. He finally frees himself from his prison (if you can call it that) and clears his throat, getting the three girls' attention.

"I-I g-guess I will see you guys at lunch?" He nervously asks.

Momo shakes her head, "Sorry Deku, but me and Mari have to attend a meeting between the clubs."

Ochaco rubs the back of her head sheepishly. "Uh, I have to take an extra class so I have to eat lunch there."

"Oh, okay. S-see you… " Deku says but tampers off as the three head off to their respective locations. Deku hangs his head in disappointment. 'Now what do I do during lunch hour?' He asks himself in sadness as he heads off to his first class, unknowing as to the fact that his question will be answered. Just not in the way he would have liked.

(Lunch Hour)

On the roof of the school, a group of likewise individuals are having a discussion on a subject they hold in high regard. Let us listen in, shall we?

"Hey, look at that one, what do you guys think?"

"Oh, yes. The pinnacle of beauty, a statement of true art."

"I would have to disagree, I think that one has a bit more, style to it."

What subject are they discussing, you may ask. Why, the art of being general perverts, obviously.

"No, no guys, you've got it all wrong!" Yells an individual by the name of Minoru Mineta. He is a very small young man with a large round head and purple and black hair. "None of them are better than the other, they are all hot little mamas in their own way." He says sagely. He points to a girl with short, red spiky hair, Her uniform fitting snugly with her muscled frame. "That girl your greatest muscle fetish realized. And that girl..." He then points to a girl with a curvaceous figure and fawn-colored hair. "That is one girl who you just want to take you to marshmallow heaven. So you see, my comrades, no one girl is better than the rest, not here. Here, they are all worthy of our admiration."

The other five boys start clapping, with Mineta taking a sweeping bow.

"Thank you, thank you. You are too kind." Mineta then becomes serious. "But I am afraid that dream is in danger, my friends. You all know the reason as to why."

The other perve… I mean boys all nod their heads, their faces set in grim lines.

"This Underground Student Council is standing in the way of our dream. They watch us constantly." Says Mineta.

"Well, not constantly." Kiyoshi Fujino, the closest one of the group to being a normal person despite still being a pervert sometimes. He is a young man of average height and weight, with dark blue hair and black eyes. "They watch that other guy, Midoriya I think his name is, just as much if not more than us."

"Yeah, what is up with that?!" Shingo Wakamoto, a boy with blonde hair with the appearance of your typical high-school thug, yells in confusion. "What is so special about that loser?! We are way more interesting than that guy!"

"Hmm," Takehito Morokuzu, the intellectual of the group (self-titled). He is a young man of tall stature, with short black hair and eyes. "Perhaps it has to do with his relationship with Lady Kurihara?"

"Maybe." Says Jouji Nezu, A short and gaunt young man with a frail constitution. He has black hair and always wears a hood over his head, keeping most of his face in shadows.

"He seems to be shy when it comes to girls, though." Says Reiji Andou, the last member of the group of six. He is a tall and obese young man with black hair and eyes as well.

Mineta claps his hands to gain the others' attention. "Guys, we are getting off topic here. We can worry about Midoriya later. Right now our focus should be on the USC."

"What exactly do you want us to do?" Kiyoshi asks with one eyebrow raised.

"We need to divert their attention elsewhere, and I know exactly how. Listen." He whispers the plan to the other perverts. After hearing it, Kiyoshi becomes uncomfortable.

"I don't like it, this plan is a bad idea." He says.

"Oh, grow a pair, Fujino." Snaps Shingo. "I say we go for it, I'm tired of those girls always looking down on us. I say it is just what they deserve."

"Yeah." Agrees Jouji. "besides, they also bullied the other girls in the school as well."

"so are you guys in?" Asks Mineta, the rest all nod their heads, though Kiyoshi does so reluctantly. Mineta grows a perverted grin. "Good, oh I can't wait to see the look on those girls' faces. Hehehehe."

(At the end of school)

Meiko and Hana are exiting the school and heading to the school gates, Mari telling them to go on ahead of her as she needed to finish some important paperwork.

Hana steals a glance at her colleague, noticing the dark scowl set on her face and that her hands were clenched. "Meiko, we have been watching Izuku Midoriya for two weeks now, don't you think we should, I don't know, stop?"

The gray-haired beauty shots a glare at her, her scowl darkening even further. "Are you having doubts, Hana?" She growls.

Hana back away, a little bit scared of her friend's demeanor, she looks at the ground in thought. "Maybe? Mari doesn't seem to think Midoriya is like other men who are perverts and all around scum, and we haven't found any evidence suggesting he is. So… again, maybe?"

Meiko scoffs in disbelief. "Then you are a fool, Midoriya is just like the rest of them, and I will prove it."

As they are passing under a large tree, all of a sudden a bucket filled with a yellowish liquid tips over and drenches them both, their uniforms soaked and stained, completely ruined.

"What the hell?!" Hana exclaims in shock. "What happened?!"

"Somebody's idea of a joke, no doubt." Meiko snarls in rage. "When I get my hand on whoever did this… " She looks down at herself, shocked to discover that her uniform is melting, being eaten away by the yellowish liquid.

"Ah!" Screams Hana in fright. "Our uniforms!"

In under half a minute, they were down to their undergarments, though those too were being dissolved. Meiko and Hana try to cover themselves as best as they can, their predicament drawing a crowd. As Meiko becomes aware of the growing crowd, she starts to panic, this entire scenario reminding her of an incident from her middle school days.

'No! Please, stop staring at me!' She pleads internally, feeling vulnerable, tears forming in her eyes. 'Somebody, help me, please.'

Her plead was answered, by the one person she did not expect to answer.

She is startled when a large sheet is draped over now naked form. She looks up to see none other than the hero of our tale, Izuku Midoriya! (Deku to his friends).

"Are you okay, Shiraki-senpai?" He asks her, his eyes filled with nothing but concern for her well being.

Meiko just stares at our hero, her mouth hanging open in shock. Well, that is till she falls over in a dead faint.

"Ah! Shiraki-Senpai!"

Meiko slowly opens her eyes, her mindset in the fog of waking up. She looks around, finding that she is the school's infirmary, resting in one of the six bunk beds that occupy the space. She sees Hana currently asleep in another bunk, her face a picture of peacefulness.

"Oh, good. You're awake." Meiko turns to see the Head Nurse of Hachimitsu Academy Chiyo Shuzenji, a short elderly woman with her gray hair styled into a netted bun. She gives Meiko a soft smile, then hits on the head with her with a clipboard. "You are lucky, young lady. If young Midoriya hadn't rushed you here as quickly as he did, that gunk that was covering you and Midorikawa would have caused severe rashes to your skin."

Meiko rubs her head, looks at 'Recovery Girl' as the students nicknamed her in confusion. "Midoriya… brought me here?"

"Indeed he did, and what a sight it was," States Recovery Girl with a chuckle, "Watching him carried both you and Midorikawa at the same time was quite amusing to watch, let me just say."

"He carried… us both?" Meiko asks her confusion mounting, a small blush starting to form on her cheeks.

Recovery Girl nods her head with a hum, "Yes indeed, he carried you in his arms while he carried Midorikawa on his back. How he was able to see in front of him, I have no idea." She mutters that last sentence.

Meiko blush now covers her entire face, making her look like a large tomato. 'He… he helped me. Why? He had the perfect opportunity, I was naked, helpless, at his mercy. Yet, he carried myself and Hana to the infirmary.'

A strange sensation began to fill Meiko's stomach with warmth, a small smile on her lips. 'You know, he kind of reminded me of those romance books I used to read back in Middle School, about gallant knights saving princesses...'

And thus Meiko was struck by The Princess Syndrome. And may God help our hero, for he has awakened a true monster. The love of Meiko Shiraki.
