A Little Girl Named Eri
RJ saw Overhaul towering over him while Eri was hugging on tight to him as if she was in danger. RJ quickly put on his mask just in case he would recognize him.
" Sorry about that hero. She gets excited a lot and tends to hurt herself sometimes. It's a real problem," said Overhaul in a friendly voice.
" Uh… It… it's okay. I should have seen her coming," said RJ stuttering his words from fear.
" Woah! You know you have to keep your guard up at all times, partner. Woah that's a cool mask you got there. You must be with the Hassakai. You guys are famous around here," said Mirio trying to help RJ get out of this situation.
" Don't mind the mask. It keeps out the filth. I've never seen you two around here. Newcomers? You're both so young," said Overhaul.
" Yeah, we're just some newbies to all this. It's pretty nerve-wracking," said RJ with Eri still grabbing him.
" Which agency do you two work for?"
" We're just students actually. We're doing our internships right now. In fact, we need to continue our rounds around this neighborhood before lunch. Let's go!" said Mirio walking off.
" Yeah! Right behind you," said RJ trying to get up but still being pulled by Eri.
" Please don't go…" whispered Eri, making RJ even more anxious about the situation.
" Um… your daughter seems scared. She won't let go," said RJ shaking nervously.
" She just got a scolding not too long ago," said Overhaul.
" Yeah but these bandages don't look like something she would get from playing around."
" She falls a lot. Eri is a clumsy girl."
" I just don't think it's normal for a little girl to be trembling this much."
' What are you doing RJ!?' thought Mirio.
" Don't presume you know what's normal for other people's families," said Overhaul with a glare at RJ.
" No no no. I wasn't trying to say that. I actually work with kids from a kindergarten not too far from here. Stuff like this just catches my attention. Can I ask what you are doing to this girl?" said RJ with a fake smile on his face while sweating.
Overhaul stood silently for a while Mirio slowly crept to get RJ away from him and Eri.
"... Sigh. Heroes are sensitive to stuff like this. Very well. It's a little embarrassing so I don't want anyone to overhear us. Come this way?" said Overhaul walking into the alleyway.
" Uh… sure," said RJ picking up Eri with Mirio following behind him.
" I've actually been having a hard time with Eri lately. No matter what I say she fights back."
" Raising kids can be tough huh?" said Mirio.
" I'm never going to have one that's for sure haha," said RJ.
" That's what they always say. Children are very difficult. What will they become? What can they become? I always ask myself that…" said Overhaul almost taking his glove off with a glare back at Eri making her go back with him. " Done with your tantrum?"
" Um… Eri…" said RJ shocked at what happened.
" It's always like this. Sorry for having you listen to our problems. Good luck with your internships.
Overhaul and Eri disappeared into the dark alleyway while Mirio and RJ stayed back.
" That sudden bloodlust lured the child over. Right now let's report back to sir. But first… what is wrong with you! We're working undercover, remember?" said Mirio, surprisingly frustrated.
" What did you want me to do!? She was grabbing tight to me. What hero would let go of a frightened child!?" said RJ taking off his mask.
"... You're right. I'm sorry. Let's just hope he wasn't too suspicious. I'll call Amaya."
Amaya received Mirio's call and notified Nighteye who was staking out the Hassakai's base. They decided to meet nearby where they were staking out.
" So sorry. It was a complete accident," said Mirio.
" No. It's my fault. I should've used my foresight on you two," said Nighteye.
" We're just glad you two are okay. Must have been scary," said Amaya patting Mirio's back.
" No kidding. But he seemed… kind normal," said RJ.
" Well with a recent incident involving some robbers, there was an accident but no fatalities at all. Police believe that it was thanks to Overhaul quirk why the robbers were completely fine afterward," said Nighteye.
" So I guess he healed them somehow?"
" We started to track the gang, given how strange the story was," said Amaya.
" Oh! Sir! We got some new information. Chisaki has a daughter," said Mirio.
" A daughter?"
" Her name was Eri. Her arms and legs were covered in bandages. She was really scared and I couldn't do anything," said RJ clenching his fist.
" You're not able to save anyone whenever you want! Haste makes waste. Go after him haphazardly and he'll slip through our fingers. We're requesting other agencies to help with this case. Planning is the best way we can deal with this situation," said Nighteye.
" Sorry…"
" Don't be sorry. Just learn from this. You're still young. That will be all for today. Return to the office you three."
That was the end of RJ's first day of work-study and it left an unexpected feeling in himself that other young heroes don't get on their first day. RJ called All Might after leaving Nighteye's and wanted to talk to him. All Might told him to meet him outside of U.A. as if he expected the call.
" All Might!" shouted RJ running towards him.
" RJ… You know everything now I presume?" asked All Might.
" Why didn't you tell me? Was I your second choice? Did Mirio turn you quirk down?... I just want to know everything. Today's been... hectic." said RJ, still thinking of Eri.
" I didn't think you needed to hear it but… ok."
All Might explained his history with Nighteye being his sidekick after returning to Japan from America. After All Might's fight with All For One before then, they had an argument about whether All Might should retire or not. All Might didn't while Nighteye wanted him to after looking at his injured state. Nighteye informed All Might that if he continued down this path he would meet a gruesome death to a villain. They disbanded after this.
" Togata was recommended to me by the principal but I ran into you. Just so you know I don't regret giving you my power," said All Might rubbing RJ's hair.
" You're going to… die? How long did he say into the future it was going to happen?" asked RJ anxiously.
" Six to seven years."
" That's either this year or next. His predictions aren't always right. Right!?"
" They were always right but I create my own fate with this fist!" said All Might going into his muscular form. " After Kamino, I believe the future can be changed. So I'll keep fighting."
"... I'll be right there with you changing fate. Thanks for telling me, Toshinori," said RJ putting his fist forward too.
" Eh! Who told you my real name?!"
" I overheard Gran Torino, heh."
" That big mouth of his, haha."
Bakugo and Todoroki's Internship
"Move out of the way civilians! Unless you want glass pierced into you!" shouted a Villain whose quirk was glass manipulation.
" This guy is fast!" said Todoroki using his ice to protect the civilians while chasing after the villain.
" He's not faster than me! AP SHOT! AUTO CANNON!" shouted Bakugo sending multiple blast projectiles at the villain who dodged most of them.
" Bakugo. I'll flank around. Keep chasing him!"
" Don't tell me what to do IcyHot!"
Todoroki flanked around the corner and got in front of the villain with Bakugo still behind him leaving him no place to go.
" DIE!" shouted Bakugo blasting towards the villain.
" Too slow," said Endeavor tackling the villain to the floor.
" What the hell old man! I had him!
" He was luring you in. He was close to making his escape. Good job reading the situation, Shoto."
"... Whatever," said Todoroki, turning away from Endeavor.
" This is the fifth time you took a villain down yourself!" shouted Bakugo.
" … Is he really your friend?" asked Endeavor pointing at Bakugo.
" Yes…" said Todoroki.
" As if!" shouted Bakugo.
Endeavor received a phone call after turning the villain over to the police with Bakugo still throwing an angry tantrum behind him.
" Looks like you two will be doing some hero work that doesn't involve you being fast. We got a request from another agency," said Endeavor, hanging up the phone.
Hado and Ashido's Internship
" A fight has broken out between two villains with gigantification quirks! We need some heroes here asap!" shouted a police officer on his radio looking at the two giant villains fighting.
" Watch your step you two! The floor is slippery!" shouted Ashido sliding on her acid underneath the villains making them slip and lose their balance. " Hado!"
" Charging complete. Output thirty percent. Nejire Wave!" shouted Hado blasting the two villains with a huge blast of energy to the ground and knocking them unconscious.
The police arrested the villains after their quirks returned them to normal size.
" That was great Ashido! You weren't nervous at all!" said Hado, skipping towards her and Ryukyu.
" Your mobility is great. I see why Hado brought you alongside her this time," said Ryukyu.
" Aww shucks! You're praising me too much," said Ashido blushing.
" You two will be really useful for a certain case. All Might's former sidekick has requested help. Sir Nighteye."
The Next Day
" Kirishima! Check it out! Your name is in the news!" said Kaminari showing him his phone.
Kirishima defeated a villain last night who used a quirk enhancing drug on himself. Tamaki was hit with a quirk erasing bullet in the process making Fat Gum worry about what villains were working on.
" Bakugo and Todoroki are in the news too!" said Sero.
" Ashido and Hado too!" said Uraraka.
" Heh. Look like I'm in front of you again RJ." said Bakugo, mocking RJ.
"... Yeah," said RJ, who looked depressed, catching Bakugo's attention.
" How is it!?" asked Hagakure.
" It's great! It's like we're actually pros!" said Ashido.
" Bakugo. Endeavor said to meet at this location. Let's go," said Todoroki, showing his phone.
" No costumes. What the hell," said Bakugo.
" You're heading out too? I just received a message from Fat Gum to meet at that location too," said Kirishima.
" Same for me and Ashido," said Hado.
"... I think I know what's going on," said RJ.
" What are you talking about?" asked Bakugo.
" I'm part of Nighteye's internship."
The six students headed out of the dorms and went to the train station after being escorted by a hero. After their trip, they were in front of a building with the Big Three standing in front greeting them. They went inside and saw multiple pro heroes including Gran Torino and Aizawa.
" Now that everyone is here… Shall we begin?" said Nighteye.
