Thoughts Himiko
Hi everyone, I would like to apologize for the time you have been waiting for this update, since like everyone here I have been going through a blockage along with having to rewrite this several times to get what I want and it has been a little frustrating but not impossible, I have also had to deal with some episodes of depression which are a normal thing for me because of the dates but well, I really appreciate your patience and I hope you continue to enjoy this story. I would also like to tell you that we are close to entering the arc of USJ, I have many surprises prepared for what will be my longest chapter yet, so I just want to say thank you again and leave you with the chapter.
-O-
Hello, Himiko Midoriya once again here and reporting, surprised to have a second part of something that should have been a chapter and that the author should have updated long ago? because I' m, although I'm not complaining... well if maybe I'm complaining a little bit but that's the way these things are, then picking up where we left off; Toga and I were ready for the ball toss creating a dramatic atmosphere charged with suspense and emotion... or the closest thing to it because with this budget the truth... ''Ahem'' well I was getting a little sidetracked and I know that most people don't want to hear my ravings or my complaints about this so let's go to the next part and start with the second part...
− 0 –
Himiko closed her eyes and just took a deep breath as she got into position to make her throw while the others tried to hold their breath to whatever she was trying to do, with the exception of her friends, her brother and her boyfriend nobody else had an idea of the type of quirk that the girl possessed as to have made such a bet since she was seen with enough confidence or at least that was what she seemed, some of the boys began to theorize some variant of her brother's quirk but on a smaller scale and others thought of something like telekinesis or some quirk of the elemental type or variants of these.
No one was sure what he would be able to do or if he would be able to cover the necessary distance from his current location. But soon everyone held their breath as soon as she started moving inside the circle to hit the ball hard, then it came out with great speed upwards making everyone look incredulous and not at all impressed by such a fiasco, Most of the boys began to mock the pathetic display of strength that had been unimpressive from the girl who had talked too much, except for a couple of boys who were intrigued by the way the other girls viewed their friend's action with absolute seriousness and perhaps a slight hint of emotion.
Iida kept looking at the older girl by the name of Momo Yaoyorozu who wouldn't take her eyes off the blonde girl without also mentioning that she was smiling for some reason that was unknown to him. This also caught the attention of a boy with two-tone hair that made him look like a mint and just asked him directly "Do you think she knows something we don't and would prefer that we see it? ", Iida wanted to answer his question, but when he tried, the ball was already falling at the same speed it had been thrown and while the others saw this, the blonde girl was getting ready to hit her target again.
In a really short response time. Himiko kicked the ball with great force and some elegance just like a martial artist would do, making her movement barely visible and thus increasing the speed of that ball, gaining looks of surprise and disbelief from the boys in her class, When they saw how the ball approached their target they were incredulous of the feat and even Aizawa could be somewhat surprised when the ball hit several trees in rapid succession thanks to the bounce effect of the impulse used, he had lost and the girl in question did not even deign to use her quirk for it which had made it even more surprising.
-"A deal is a deal, so... -Are you okay?" − Shouta asked alarmed when he saw how suddenly his student term dropped to the floor while pressing hard on a specific part of her leg, he was about to go with her if it wasn't for her friends and brother who didn't waste time trying to help her.
-"I'd like to say I am, Sensei... but I think I lost... "Ugh" Would you help me sit down?" − Somehow the girl had managed to injure herself but she still kept smiling, although if she had the chance it was pretty certain she would scream if it wasn't for the fact that she was now the center of attention.
-"Nessan!" − The girl's brother did not hesitate to take her carefully with the help of Kyouka to help her move while Yaoyorozu prepared a part of the camp to assess the damage that had been done.
-"Don't worry Zuzu, I didn't hurt myself too much... I think, I was so close to making it (fuck, this hurts like shit!)" − She said to herself trying to contain herself which she wasn't achieving, even Toga was trying to keep her calm and distracted without much success.
-"Why are you acting like you lost Himi-chan, you managed to hit more than one tree!" − The cheerful brunette expressed herself animatedly as she pulled out a handkerchief to wipe some of the sweat off her friend's forehead while Momo finished checking her and told them that it was apparently nothing serious.
-"I know that Chako, but it's no use if it ends up like that... I exaggerated too much" − commented Himiko as she looked down somewhat embarrassed for having acted so arrogantly, without her knowing it, her classroom teacher heard the last thing she had said. And with that she managed to put a smile on the tired face of the man who was covered by his scarf.
-"You are definitely going to be my favorite this year, problem child. All right all of you listen up!, Your classmate has given you a chance to still be in my class but make no mistake, this only means that I will evaluate you harder so enjoy your stay while you can, for now I want a volunteer to take Miss Midoriya to the nurse's office" − Aizawa said as she swept them up to watch one of the girls raise her hand to volunteer.
-"I'll be carrying it Sensei, it will be easier for me to move it with my quirk!" − Replied Ochako who was still standing next to her friend, making her weightless so that she could be carried easily, something that pleased Shouta because of the girl's quick response and the intelligent and rational use of her quirk
-"Go ahead Miss Uraraka and please try not to take too long for us to continue with the test, the others start running in what we are waiting for their companions" − ordered the master while he saw the girls withdraw slowly from the field until he was interrupted by a blond boy whose hair had a thunder pattern that was possibly the work of his quirk.
-"Should we not continue with the tests Sensei?" − Asked the blond boy as he earned the hateful looks of some of his classmates and a couple of girls.
-"Do you want me to expel you now to save me the wait?" − Replied his teacher dryly, who only gave him an irritated look with his eyes closed while slightly activating his quirk to give him some intimidation.
-"H-How many turns did sensei say?" − asked the boy, quite nervous because of his sensei's action and starting to trot like the rest of his companions, in short his look was super effective for situations like this.
Without further objection the group kept running while Aizawa checked some things on his clipboard, from the years he had been teaching in this school this one was definitely the most interesting from the amount of students in his charge as the ones that have called his attention until now. After making them run for some more minutes and scolding some others that were not taking his words seriously he could see in the distance how Uraraka was coming back without the other student. This raised some questions along with the rest of the students who were beginning to form ideas about how serious the girl's injury might have been at the time of kicking the ball.
-"What happened to Miss Midoriya?" − Asked her teacher a little worried but without showing it, after all she had to keep up the appearances of the tough and demanding teacher she was.
-"Recover Girl didn't let her leave the infirmary, I explained to her how Himiko had been injured and she told us that since she had avoided the expulsion of the others the least she deserved was to recover properly... and she also said something about having a talk with you Sensei" − responded her student emphasizing the last part which made her teacher swallow dry, if it wasn't for her scarf her students would have noticed it.
-"Damn the old woman, we will continue to finish this as soon as possible so that everyone can leave" − said her teacher as he ordered them to meet again to resume the test, Uraraka proceeded to take her place with the rest of the girls only to be approached by them who were not long in asking about the condition of their absent friend.
-"Ochako-chan... was Himiko's injury serious?" − Kyouka asked once the brunette had caught up with them to rejoin the group, there was much concern that she might have more than just a torn as they had originally theorized.
-"Luckily not, it's just that her muscle was stretched too far and that's what caused her the pain. Recovery Girl said that if she had used more strength she might have torn some ligaments from the pressure" − explained Ochako in the simplest words to avoid worrying her friends. And especially Izuku, because of the concern she reflected, without thinking too much, she approached her boyfriend and took his hand as a sign of support and as a comfort to calm him down.
-"So... What will happen with the test, will she do it again?" − Asked Hiroko, a little worried that Mr. Aizawa would end up forcing Himiko and end up with another visit to the infirmary, even now he wasn't taking it too well that she was there.
-"I don't know exactly, but it might be possible that she will... unless her winning keeps her out of it" − said Izuku thinking about how her classroom teacher would approach this since she doubted that he would really give her a free pass.
-"I doubt very much that she would allow that, let alone stay resting in the infirmary" − added Katsuki to the conversation as she smiled and shook her head in denial, confusing the girls and her childhood friend.
-"What makes you so sure of this, Bakugo-kun?" − Asked Momo, somewhat confused by the boy's words, although she knew that Himiko was reluctant and too stubborn to give up a challenge. She at least wanted to believe that she wouldn't do anything rash even though Katsuki's answer to her question would show her otherwise.
-"Easy, here he comes and he seems to be doing very well in eluding the nurse" − was all the blond guy said as he looked amused at the scene of his girlfriend running away from an old lady with a syringe cane, the group knew very well who she was and were amazed that the old lady was so fast for her age.
-"I tell you, you have to rest, you little brat!, you can't force your body like that and hurt yourself again!" − Shouted Recovery Girl angrily as she saw how irresponsible this girl was to force her body again when she should be resting.
-"I'm not going to stay in bed and miss the evaluation, first dead before I'm rated unfit!" − responded Himiko only to end up stumbling because of an oversight that was taken advantage of by the old professional to try to immobilize her. Aizawa watched the action unfold thinking that she would possibly not get away with it because now the old lady was giving her a look of few friends.
-"Damn it, Shouta I'm blaming you for this if she gets hurt again!" − she sentenced the professional as she began to check her again for new injuries to her leg. She definitely hated the first few days of school since she never missed the student who was playing the fool just to end up in her office for some recklessness.
-"This girl... Himiko, stop running and go back to the nurse's office to rest as the old lady says, I'm leaving you out of the test!" − Ordered his teacher while giving him his patented look taken from the Pokémon games just to reaffirm his authority and as in the games, was super effective against the poor girl.
-"He can't be serious Sensei, I need...!" − Himiko was trying to appeal to her logic but Shouta was making it clear that the conversation was over and that anything she had to say would not change his mind.
-"Now go back and rest until the old lady says you can get back on your feet, in case it takes longer your brother will bring you the study plan as well as the rest of the information from his additional classes, have I made myself clear Miss Midoriya?" − As much as Himiko wanted to claim it was very obvious that she could not win the point so she let out a long, tired sigh as a sign of defeat and acceptance.
-"... Yes Sensei" - was all the answer the girl said before her brother helped her up, which she thanked with a resigned look knowing that she would spend a long time in the infirmary for her pleasure.
-"Well I'm glad to hear that, she's all yours Chiyo. The rest of you get ready to suffer for the next two hours because I'm not making it easy for you" − mentioned Aizawa as she gave them a shitty grin about the suffering of their new wards.
Not daring to object any more, the blonde girl began to follow Recovery Girl back to the infirmary while feeling the stern look of the old professional who had begun to complain about her lack of care, Himiko just kept looking down apologizing for it while limping a little in her walk from the pain caused by forcing her leg back into the field and avoiding the nurse, They didn't advance much when he saw All-Might in his basic form in a yellow striped suit that was very loose and gave him the appearance of a bruised banana, the man seemed to be completely absorbed watching Aizawa's test that he didn't see her go back in the company of Chiyo, which gave him a look that ended up scaring the poor man when they were already close to him, the blonde girl only smiled at the possibilities that opened up before her to annoy him a little and perhaps cheer himself up in the process.
-"Hello Mr. Yagi!, is everything all right?" − Greeted Himiko with a smile as she thought about how she might make him uncomfortable.
-"Hello young Midoriya, it seems that Aizawa's test has already claimed its first victim as usual" − said the skeletonized man returning the girl's greeting somewhat nervously as he saw that he was in the company of Chiyo who was giving him a blank stare and was about to question him if not for the girl's timely intervention.
-"I wouldn't say that exactly... it's more like winning a bet to avoid him expelling someone if they didn't meet expectations" − replied the young woman as she avoided making eye contact, something that I completely miss Toshinori who didn't hesitate to try to cheer him up.
-"I see, you know, you look a little down when you should be proud of having achieved that victory for your companions, my girl" − Himiko looked a little incredulous at Mr. Yagi's comment, although she would not deny that it had made her feel a little better and a little guilty at the thought of making fun of him.
-"I feel more like a reckless person who chose to abandon personal security in order to win an arrogant bet" − replied the girl, somewhat discouraged and acknowledging her faults, which drew the attention of the old heroine, who smiled as she listened to Himiko acknowledge her faults and defects.
-"Perhaps you are not a lost cause my dear, at least you recognize that you made a mistake and you accept it with courage unlike others including some professionals who think they are invincible" − said Chiyo showing pride for some reason, this was noted by Toshinori who could not help but feel nervous about the question the young woman would eventually ask and who would point it out directly.
-"Are there any reckless heroes?" − Asked the girl, somewhat surprised and a little excited to know the answer since the only hero she remembered as reckless was right next to her.
-"Oh, honey, if I were to tell you how many heroes I've treated for recklessness in my career, believe me, I'd easily build a huge wall of shame" − said the old pro, looking down on a certain blond hero who was sweating at his co-worker's smug smile.
-"Well, you know how it is, sometimes it's hard to be cautious when the situation calls for it, but it's no excuse when it's just the opposite" − the girl's words surprised Recovery Girl by her understanding of the situation, something she wouldn't understand until her senior year.
-"That's certainly true, dear, and it's one of the truths of this trade you'll see once you graduate and start taking your first steps" − the old lady said with a happy smile.
-"I guess so... By the way" − said the girl as she looked at All-Might's weakened form – "Shouldn't you be in Principal Nezu's office doing reports instead of being here being irresponsible Mr. Yagi?, my mother would be disappointed if she knew you didn't take your job seriously" − said the girl as she gave him a serious and disapproving look that made the number one hero tremble as his mind created the image of Inko saying how disappointed she was in him as well as other situations that scared the poor man.
-"I have the director's permission to supervise your brother to see his progress and to assist him in new training plans if needed in the future!" − he rushed to say All-Might in his defense as the girl looked at him not quite convinced of it, while for Chiyo it was somewhat hilarious the way Toshinori was reacting and she would have no doubt that the scene felt more like a daughter discovering her father doing things behind his wife's back.
-"Who would have thought that the day would come when I would see something like this with my own eyes, well, since Shouta's test is going to take some time then you could help me take this little girl back to the infirmary as she needs to rest to fully recover after I treat her for her injury... again" − Himiko was embarrassed about that again as she went back to apologize to the old lady for what happened until Mr. Yagi interrupted her.
-"All right, come on Miss Midoriya, I'll help you take her back as long as you let me" − said the emaciated man as he smiled with his emaciated face as he offered his hand to his successor's sister, who accepted it with a shy smile.
-"I thank you, Mr. Yagi, and I am sorry for any inconvenience I may cause you".
Toshinori only smiled as he helped the young girl walk while Recovery Girl looked at them thinking of the curious way he had become a foster "father" to these boys, he still remembers when he gave her the list of the few applicants for the entrance exam who had been injured during the test and the way he had reacted when he heard that the two brothers had needed medical attention, he would even swear that his reaction could rival that of Shouta when he found out that this girl had been injured at the end of the exam.
But what would happen days later certainly took the prize for irresponsibility and stupidity when he accidentally revealed his identity by falling asleep on Dagobah Beach while caring for the girl who never realized he was there with her, To say that everyone in the teachers' room was really shocked was little, although they were even more surprised that she wasn't interested in knowing more about the number one hero, much less in asking for something in return to keep the secret.
Thanks to Yagi's help, they were able to get to the infirmary in less time than it would have taken for the girl's slow walk. As soon as they entered the room, Himiko was placed on one of the beds to rest before receiving a second kiss from Chiyo. Although the idea that the injury was not too serious when it first arrived was as close as possible to a rational response, as soon as young Midoriya gave in to the fatigue she fell soundly asleep oblivious to what was going on around her although if she had stayed awake she would have heard an interesting conversation, because as Toga would have told her during the entrance exam, the great hero was convinced that Himiko had more than one quirk which started to make him a little paranoid to end up with a strong blow to the head courtesy of Chiyo.
-"I don't know where they got the idea that this girl could possess more than one quirk in the first place" − replied the old woman, annoyed to keep hearing the same nonsense about something that had a logical explanation, as Aizawa would say.
-"You didn't see her during the test, she did things that were impossible" − said the skeletal hero in his defense, as he held his arms up to avoid a blow from the cane, which amused the old woman.
-"I watched the videos of the test during my free time, as far as I'm concerned she did too intensive physical training, I've seen her background and quirk record and there's nothing abnormal about this girl saving her own quirk" − explained Chiyo briefly gaining a look of doubt from Toshinori due to the girl's quirk commentary.
-"What do you mean by that?" − Asked the man a little alarmed as he didn't know much about the brothers and hadn't wanted to be too forward to inquire about them by asking Inko directly.
-"Her quirk is based on the consumption of blood which allows her to acquire, supplant or adopt the physical appearance of the donor by limiting her time to the amount of blood she consumes, not to mention that he has made alterations to her system by forcing her to drink it from time to time as if she were a vampire, although the odd thing is that the information about her quirk was not recorded at the age when it should normally have been" − when Chiyo first heard this from the director she was very hesitant and even made an inquiry about it but with little success so far while giving the young woman's file to Toshinori to examine.
-"Nezu told me something about it, she is not the blood sister of young Midoriya but was taken in by her mother when he was six years old and two years later she was formally adopted after several lawsuits, I don't know more about it and I haven't asked her mother directly to know more about it her" − mentioned Yagi while looking at the girl's file corroborating what her partner had said so far, This only narrowed it down to Himiko's natural parents from whom some information could possibly be obtained so she made a mental note to ask her friend in the police for a favor to investigate further.
-"I see... so we can assume that this is just another case of parental neglect just because we have a quirk that falls into the dark category, because this doesn't surprise me at all these days" − said the old professional with some frustration trying to keep her anger at a minimum without realizing that someone else would join the conversation.
-"Perhaps because it's something that's becoming all too common these days Chiyo, it's easier to discard a "defective" child than to guide him to make him a better person in this society that is so broken, It makes you wonder at what point parents started to see their children as investments rather than what they are... good parents are a very scarce commodity these days and more so those who can provide a home for children like her" − said the director as he pushed his way through with a cup of tea in his hands, he had done his own research and even knew the reason for it which had come to outrage him enough to act from the shadows.
-"What brings you here Nezu, you won't tell me you were just bored and needed some time off from work?" − Asked the old lady with some chimera sarcasm, it wasn't uncommon to see her meddling in every issue associated with the school but this seemed to be something on a personal level which was a little strange.
-"You know me dear, there is nothing more fun than seeing Shouta's test and the look on her students' faces when they hear him talk about expelling someone" − he responded cheerfully which earned him a couple of looks of disbelief, everyone at UA knew there was always a background to everything he did and this would be no exception.
-"That's not very healthy if you ask me" − Toshinori declared openly in a worried tone as he pulled out his handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his face.
-"I understand... -How serious is Miss Midoriya's injury?" − Asked the director who now had his attention on the girl who was lying asleep on the bed in front of him.
-"Nothing serious really, she'll be fine once she's rested enough and before you ask, I was about to see her blood level" − replied the nurse manager as she opened one of her cabinets to get out medical and transfusion equipment if needed.
-"Well, keep me informed of any situation that might arise because of that, I don't want her to start the year in the hospital" − she said without losing her cheerful tone and then turning around and leaving.
-"Nezu if you'll allow me a moment..."− called Yagi to stop him, there was something the hero had been wanting to ask him for a few months now and perhaps this would be his best chance to get an answer, although being the creature he is, Nezu probably already knew why he was stopping him.
-"What do you need Toshinori?" − Asked the chimera that now looked directly into his eyes waiting to hear what he had to say. Needless to say, this made Yagi feel somewhat uncomfortable.
-"What exactly is the reason you are so interested in them?" − Silence came over the place and while Chiyo was keeping busy with her business she was also paying attention to the conversation, she was also intrigued by Nezu's interest in these brothers because he had never shown it for anyone else unless he had something to gain.
-"Mmm... I guess maybe it's because I ended up getting attached to them when I met them a couple of years ago or because of the actions they had been doing before contacting me. I don't remember, well, I'll see you in a while" − without having responded in a satisfactory manner she left the infirmary leaving her two employees with more doubts than they had at first.
Although this brief "answer" did not really surprise them, they would never have imagined that Nezu could get attached to someone because of his tortuous past and his opinion about humans but... the thing is that he had said it himself and that made them feel strange, especially Chiyo who had in mind that only the brother could have captured the rat's interest by being Toshinori's successor since he suggested it to her because of the boy's great intelligence that was revealed during the visit a few years ago, The sister in her own opinion does not possess anything remarkable but it remains an unknown why Nezu is so interested in both of them instead of just one of them, Yagi just smiled saying that she should spend some time with the girl to understand him as he headed to the gate to return to the field to continue watching his successor, Chiyo just sighed as he returned to his duties to kill time since the girl in his care would still be sleeping for a while longer.
UA driving range.
Back on the driving range while Himiko slept in the infirmary unaware of what was going on at the training camp, Shouta had been relentless with her new students in the tests imposed so far. Pushing them beyond their limits to test them and punishing them with double the tasks to be performed if they faltered or had the audacity to take it easy, to his surprise almost all of his students were showing what he wanted to see in them and showed no signs of giving up even though teenage fatigue was very noticeable.
He could see in their eyes the desire to keep going along with an enormous determination that he had never seen in students of previous years which made him wonder about Himiko's action, that troubled child not only defeated him in something that physically he could only achieve with the help of a quirk given the distance but also ended up seriously injured by that recklessness that could have more serious consequences. Although on the positive side she would admit that this ended up motivating most of her classmates and proof of this were the results she was getting from most of them in the tests especially because some were limited by their types of quirks, she would definitely have an interesting year unlike the previous ones.
-"We're going to die!, Sensei's being overbearing with us for some reason" − complained a relaxed looking blond boy while trying to catch his breath, even though he was somewhat used to the exercise he never expected to have to push himself beyond his limit.
-"If you're going to complain for so little then you should ask for your change to general education, most people here are giving it their all and they're not complaining about it and I would even go so far as to say they're doing it to prove themselves" − responded Kyoka somewhat upset that her friend wasn't there, although the boy's comment wasn't something she cared about in the first place she couldn't help but respond to his complaint.
-"Oh come on Jirou, don't be like that I just..." − groaned the poor boy as he thought about what had happened to the cool girl he had talked to in the classroom to make her so angry at this moment.
-"You're just making excuses and I haven't seen you give it your all since my friend threw the ball and won the bet she made with Sensei, you and your little group of friends have been bothering the other girls with your bullshit comments Denki, it's a shame Himiko didn't put clauses in her bet" - said the girl emphasizing the latter scaring the poor kid even more who until recently had contemplated inviting her to eat after school.
-"H-Hey!, For your information neither my friend nor I agree with the stupid things this dwarf is saying" − said Denki in her defense, hoping that she would not judge him any more than she already was, but something told her that this would be a very difficult thing to accomplish.
-"Come on guys don't argue, we are supposed to get along and become friends from here on, by the way my name is Eijiro Kirishima" − said cheerfully a redheaded boy who interrupted the conversation with the idea of avoiding a possible fight and winning friends in the process… or at least that was the plan.
-"Isn't it a little rude to intrude into other people's conversations without being invited?" − I claim Jiro giving him an irritated look that the boy didn't expect, he had seen a certain pink girl he knew many times do this and it always worked for him so he thought he could do the same.
-"Kyoka-chan, don't make a big deal out of this, Kero, especially if she's defending these guys knowing how offensive they've been to us" − mentioned Tsuyu intervening to prevent her friend from ending up doing something that would get her a penalty, although she wouldn't deny that she would also want to put these guys in their place.
-"What?! I didn't know that they had been rude to you when I..." − the redhead tried to explain himself to the girls to keep them from thinking badly but when he saw Mina approaching them in a completely serious manner he knew then that he was in big trouble.
-"This seems typical of you Kirishima, I thought you were a nice guy" − said the newcomer making the poor guy feel completely ashamed as this was not the impression he wanted to give her.
-"Please give me a chance, I'm didn't..." − pleaded the redhead in the hope of clearing up the misunderstanding, although from the looks he was getting from the other girls it seemed to be the opposite, until a new voice intervened, calling the attention of everyone involved.
-"I believe you..." − said the gentle voice of Izuku silencing everyone – "I also know that if my sister were here she would say the same thing and make that short boy apologize to every girl for his actions, so don't worry and lift your spirits" − the boy's words changed his mood and reluctantly Kyouka apologized for letting his emotions cloud his judgment but he kept on bothering Denki until she apologized to all the girls.
-"Thank you brother, that was very manly of you" − said Kirishima with excitement as she saw how the green-haired boy had solved the situation quickly and easily as Mina used to do when they were in her old school.
-"Don't worry, just try to know what's going on before you intervene in a conversation and even more if there's a girl involved" − the boy's words conveyed so much confidence that the red-haired boy began to doubt that she was a real person, they would have continued with their conversation if it weren't for their teacher who looked at them completely upset that they were wasting their time.
-"If you guys still have the energy to talk then I think you also have the energy to go around the field again" − said the man as he activated his quirk to intimidate his students who wasted no time in apologizing to him.
-"We are very sorry Mr. Aizawa!" − replied the teenagers, somewhat afraid that their teacher would carry out the threat of making them run again.
-"Anyway, you've done well so far and this is the last test and since I can't expel any of you thanks to a certain problem child who's absent at the moment, I'm going to make a few small changes to the program so whoever comes last in this evaluation will have to go fifty laps without objection, so I hope you'll make an effort" − said the man giving them a shitty smile that made them sweat the threat.
And as if Aizawa's words weren't enough, the active his quirk increased his intimidation facade, which, as in the Pokémon battles, was super effective against the group of teenagers who were beginning to enlist to give their all and try to avoid punishment, the launch test had been left last which made no sense to them since they had spent most of their energy on the physical tests and considered it unfair unlike their teacher who saw it as most normal, with that creepy smile that only reminded them of what would happen if any of them ended up in last place in the evaluation.
The throwing test would be the last one in the evaluation so achieving a significantly long distance would help a lot, each one paraded doing his best in spite of the fatigue to achieve an acceptable result in Aizawa's eyes, something that impressed the professional hero was the power that Bakugo could achieve without much effort although he fell short in terms of distance by only a couple of meters due to an external intervention, as well as the mature attitude he showed when seeing his result although he would not deny that he had prepared himself to restrict it if necessary.
The most curious thing so far was the fact that the girls were the ones who were showing themselves to be the most competitive and were getting good marks until it was Ochako Uraraka's turn to practically raise the mark beyond what was possible by achieving an infinite distance, "it would definitely be an interesting year" he thought to himself as he watched the last students prepare for their turn, Once the last of them finished launching the would add the information to his phone so that the app designed for this type of test would calculate the results based on the data collected, after giving a last look at the group of teenagers who were still very nervous about who would end up doing those fifty laps smiled slightly as he prepared to see their reactions.
-"I must admit that you are the only group that has surprised me... although there are also exceptions among you which make me wonder how on earth you managed to get here but it doesn't matter, remember that this is how we are going to pressure you during your three years in this school to give your best and even more, I would give you your results individually but it would be too time-consuming so here you are" − he said as he pressed a button on his smart phone making a hologram appear with everyone's grades – "and also as I promised these are the last place winners, Minoru Mineta and Denki Kaminari are kind enough to start running unless you want to be kicked out, the rest of you get changed and pick up your study plan from my desk, you are free to leave for the day".
-"Look Izu-kun, you're in first place along with Katsuki-Kun and Momo-Chan!" − Celebrated the brunette happily as she hugged her boyfriend's arm while giving him a huge smile that ended up making the boy blush.
-"You didn't do badly either Ochako-chan, you are in the seventh position" − he answered somewhat nervously and then kissed his girlfriend's forehead making her rosy cheeks turn into an intense red, the girl would have started to float if it wasn't for Katsuki who interrupted them when he was a little upset about what had happened with his throw.
-"Damn, I almost managed to tie you in the Deku throwing test... if it wasn't for that stupid rabbit that came out of nowhere" − the boy cursed underneath, nobody had expected a rabbit to appear in the test field and much less to intercept the ball shortening the distance that the blond explosive would have achieved.
-"But it was great, I even managed to videotape it without drawing Sensei's attention so that Himiko could see it!" − Replied Ashido cheerfully joining in the conversation of his friends as he hugged Katsuki as compensation and to cheer him up, the boy only sighed accepting his fate but promising himself that he would catch the rodent at the first opportunity.
-"Mina is right Bakugo-Kun and you also managed to get into the top places along with Izuku-kun, we are a bit down but we still managed to stay in the top ten... or top thirteen, kero?" − Mentioned Tsuyu somewhat hesitantly as she placed one of her fingers on her chin only to be interrupted by Ochako who took her by the arm to lure her to her location to share a hug that the frog girl gladly accepted.
-"Still we managed to be among the first unlike the rest" − declared Mina openly until someone gave her a slight blow on the head that made her look for the responsible person only to find Momo who saw her as being disappointed with her.
-"We shouldn't boast about it, it could have been different if the conditions had been different or if our training hadn't been the right one, then we would be the last ones" − the girl's words had a lot of weight considering her teacher's threats so Ashido apologized without hesitation.
-"That's a good point, ponytail" − added Bakugo who ended up getting a tired look from Yaoyorozu who still couldn't understand how hard it was to call her by her name instead of those nicknames.
-"Will you ever call me by my name Bakugo-kun?" − Momo asked, hoping to get a coherent answer from her.
-"But it's quicker that way" − the blond boy defended himself only to feel Mina climb onto his back to carry her, something that had become a habit.
-"Actually, if you call her by her name, it's much faster than that meaningless nickname" − said the pink girl who was now trying to imitate a galloping cowboy, earning several laughs from her friends and some of the boys in her class.
-"Guys... Should we go see Himiko now or after we change and pick up our stuff from the classroom?" − Kyoka asked who was joining the group waiting for an answer to offer to pick her up.
-"Ideally, we should go get her so that she can change, Ochako-chan..." − Izuku was aware of Jirou's question so she decided to ask her girlfriend the favor as it would be easier with the help of her quirk, which made some of the girls uncomfortable who wanted to go get their friend.
-"Don't worry Izu-kun, I'll go pick her up" − said the brunette cheerfully as she started to walk just to be stopped by Hiroko who offered to accompany her in case she needed help, Kyoka cursed herself for not thinking about it and Tsuyu was in the same boat, Mina noticed the attitude of her friends as she smiled thinking about him because, she was definitely going to have fun with them later.
UA Medical Area.
Meanwhile in the infirmary and unaware of what happened in the training camp, Himiko was having one of the best conversations with Recovery Girl. The blonde girl had woken up about twenty minutes ago and had tried to get back with the others until Chiyo told her that given the time, it was very likely that Shouta had already finished with the evaluation which discouraged the girl, The old professional lady, upon seeing this, offered her some tea to cheer her up and very soon they found themselves conversing pleasantly as if they had known each other for a long time. Chiyo could not help but laugh when she told her some anecdotes about Mr. Yagi from the times he had gone to dinner or lunch at the brothers' house and how he took advantage of that to have fun with him at every opportunity.
-"I never thought anyone would be able to put Toshinori through that, much less that he would fall for it so easily" − responded Chiyo, trying to keep her composure because of the funny stories Himiko was telling her, she would definitely use this to make fun of him.
-"What can I say, he gives a lot of openings to make it so easy" − replied the girl and then took another sip of her tea.
-"Thinking that the number one hero could be so easily manipulated by a teenage girl, if she didn't know him she'd say you could be his daughter" − the latter caused the teenage girl to choke on her drink and have a coughing fit before giving her the most convincing look of surprise.
-"Do you know about Mr. Yagi's secret?" − asked the slightly composed girl, waiting for what the professional could tell her.
-"That's right, honey, I've known it for a long time, but don't worry about it, I also know that you promised not to tell anyone, just like your brother and his friend" − confirmed the old woman as Himiko thought about how her little oversights had changed many things of which she was unaware of their future repercussions.
-"What can I say, that was a very strange day and I never thought I would end up discovering All-Might's secret identity without mentioning how careless he was" − I comment while remembering that particular day, he had done such a good job of avoiding making accidental changes when the universe practically did its own thing to have fun with her.
-"I know honey, believe me I know" − she smiled funny as I offered her more tea than the young blonde girl gladly accepted.
-"Hello, sorry for the interruption but we wanted to know if our friend could come back with us now" − Ochako's voice took Himiko by surprise and she looked at the door to find her and Hiroko, the blonde smiled happily as she did not imagine that two of her friends would come looking for her.
-"Hello girls, did I miss anything interesting at the test?" − Asked Himiko as she finished her tea, the smile on both girls' faces told her that something incredible had happened and she had missed it much to her regret.
-"Not much... although we took some very interesting video" − she hurried to say Hiroko in a funny way as they watched the nurse start giving the blonde a quick check-up before letting her go.
So after the evaluation was over, Himiko was given the go-ahead to return to the classroom, although not without some recommendations from Chiyo and a brief stop in the locker room so she could change back into her uniform. On the way, Ochako and Hiroko filled her in on everything they did during the evaluation as well as the incident with certain boys who only made them uncomfortable with their overly vulgar comments. At least until Kyoka stood up to them and complained about their attitude, although they had no doubt that their friend was a little too close for her to move on to physical aggression, Himiko was somewhat pensive as a big smile spread across her face and she said "I think I should talk to them and teach them some manners, don't you girls think", the girls sweated a bit imagining the possible scene while simply saying that maybe I should leave that to Bakugo-kun. It wasn't as if they thought their friend was capable of doing something to them to worry about, was it?
The journey to the dressing room was quiet and even two of her friends had stayed to wait for her and ask about her condition, not that that really worried them considering that despite the injury she got from throwing the ball she was able to escape from the infirmary and even avoid the nurse, something that not many but nobody would manage to do considering the side effects of the old professional's quirk and that Himiko practically did not experience it, which generated some doubts although they attributed it to the adrenaline for fear of some sanction from Mr. Aizawa that of some silly idea as some examiners still thought after watching the videos of the entrance exam more than once just to be sure of what they had seen, mainly Vlad King.
-"A little more and we would have gone to the infirmary to get your things too Himi-chan, what took you girls so long?" − Tooru asked cheerfully as he approached his friend for a hug.
-"Nothing special, I just had a check-up to see if I was fit to leave on my own, a torn like that is not to be taken lightly" − explained Himniko as she headed to her locker to start changing while her escort went to the showers to wash the sweat off her body.
-"Not to mention how reckless it was, kero, but still it was surprising that you managed to do so" − added Tsuyu to the conversation as he approached the young blonde to help her out if necessary, needless to say the frog girl's words embarrassed his friend into remembering that.
-"We shouldn't be so strict with her, if we look on the bright side Himiko made it clear to the boys that they can't underestimate us, especially when most of us are ahead of them on the test results" − commented Tooru as he waved his arms vigorously to make his point.
-"I don't think that was the message I would have liked to give, anyway, what did Sensei say we should do now?" − Asked Himiko as he tied his tie in the hope that the rest of the day would be more peaceful.
-"He gave us the rest of the day, he just told us to pick up the documentation that should already be in our places and that would be all for today, kero, I guess tomorrow it will be more intense where he did it" − commented Asui somewhat pensive about how it could be their second day of school where their teacher allowed them to leave early.
-"well then I think I'll make a quick call before we go home~" − the cheerful tone in the young blonde disconcerted the girls including Ochako and Hioko who were returning from the showers only to see their friend with a smile worthy of a Cheshire cat as she talked on her phone.
Somewhat puzzled by the sudden change in mood, the girls only looked at each other as they finished getting ready to return to the classroom with the others, not knowing what surprise Himiko was planning. The rest of her friends and her brother were having a conversation with the few friends they had made so far, the main topic being the bet that Midoriya's sister had made with her teacher and which she had later won, but since she did not show her quirk several ideas were going around in the heads of some people coming to the conclusion that maybe the two brothers had the same kind of quirk, although her sister's was a little weaker in comparison to her brother who got off by a lot just like the bad looking blond guy and the little brunette who had achieved an infinite distance.
-"So... How strong is your sister compared to you Midoriya?" − Asked Kirishima with the same excitement she had shown recently, the boy was very curious after seeing the girl's throw and he certainly wasn't the only one.
-"I don't think it's right to ask such personal questions!... Even if the question is valid enough" − commented Iida who showed the same interest as her classmate.
-"Just curious, my friend, didn't you see the distance his sister obtained, only three girls achieved a considerable distance unlike the rest" − replied the boy without having stopped to think about his words, which would put him in a new problem.
-"Oi, are you underestimating us or do you want us to show you how strong we really are?" − Kyouka's voice reflected the restrained anger that was ready to overflow shortly at the slightest comment from the ginger.
-"Don't take it badly, it's just...!" − Again the boy tried to apologize but everything seemed to indicate that this time it wasn't going to work.
-"Jirou-San please don't..." − Izuku tried to intervene once more to avoid a fight but was stopped by Katsuki who gave him an expressionless look.
-"Let her do this nerd, they're insinuating that the rest of the girls are weak and it's only fair that they pay the price for their stupidity" − his friend's comment surprised him by the explicit insinuation to let the girl do what she wants.
-"But Kacchan..." – Izuku could not speak when Katsuki interrupted him again to validate his comment.
-"Do you prefer Himiko to come and find out about this so that she can fix it herself or would you prefer Yuno Gassai region four to fix it here and now?" − The mention of his sister made him rethink the situation in a storm of endless mormulls until he reached a conclusion, which would not be good for the poor redhead.
-"Since you put it that way, try not to be too harsh Jirou-San" − that comment was all the girl needed to put a shitty smile on her face as she lifted her jacks ready to punch and show a world of pain to the guy in front of her.
-"Don't worry about it Izu-kun, it won't take long".
Kyouka was more than ready to charge the ginger idiot who had dared to belittle them based on the performance of the test if it wasn't for a certain pink girl who decided to intervene as well as a certain mature-looking girl who looked a little upset, Jirou bufo was a bit frustrated that her friends had stopped her before she could get even but in the end she let it go. Mina who up to that moment kept her personality happy and lively ended up surprising everyone by showing absolute seriousness while watching the kids who had started with all this trouble.
-"I don't like violence so I'd appreciate it if you'd apologize... unless you want to deal with our friend when she finds out about this and I doubt she'll be nice" − sentenced Ashido managing to scare the poor redhead who was trying to talk to explain himself.
-"That would be something inconceivable, attacking our classmates for a misunderstanding is something reprehensible that our Sensei will not overlook if he finds out about this or catches her in the act!" − Argument Iida raising her voice and coming to Kirishima's defense while cutting off the air in a comical way.
-"I doubt that Sensei will stop her if her actions are to show a point Iida-San, I know that Kirishima-San had no bad intentions in asking her question so an apology would be enough to end this" − Momo intervened at that moment with the intention of ending the discussion before everything got out of control.
-"I'm very sorry, I'm not very good at asking questions and I see that I unconsciously ended up offending the girls, I didn't mean to make them feel bad" − said the boy humbly in the hope that it would be enough.
-"We accept your apology Kirishima-Kun, it's easy to be wrong and I'm glad this ended well" − responded Momo pleased despite Kyouka's protests that she still wanted to kick the boy's ass.
The tension in the classroom had finally dissipated after this, some let go of the air they were holding back by believing that this could have turned into a fight but luckily things didn't come to that, it was funny how most of the girls got along so well and acted as a tight-knit team which made the few students who were still there assume that maybe they knew each other from before, The group soon started another conversation to forget the bad time getting lost quickly in the new topic until a familiar and very animated voice surprised them, Himiko had returned along with the rest of the girls and she did it outlining a big smile that took by surprise the rest of her group and the few students that were still there.
-"Guess who came back and with surprise included?" − Said the young blond girl happily earning the looks of all of them which she ignored as she walked towards her brother.
-"I'm glad you're all right now Nessan, you really had me worried after your pitch" − the girl could see that her brother was holding back from tears to keep her from worrying about what she decided to do in a situation like this and proceeded to hug him.
-"Calm down Zuzu, I've been through worse and a slight torn is not going to stop me at all and you know it... as long as mom doesn't find out about it" − her brother laughed about it and promised he wouldn't say anything to her mom to keep her from getting into trouble and ending up worrying her unnecessarily.
-"Midoriya-San if it is not too forward of me I would like to congratulate her for her launch, although I do not approve of things like gambling I have to admit that it was for a noble cause and her quirk is certainly a good combination with her brother" − that comment about her quirk surprised the girl who had no idea what she was talking about or what she was trying to say with it.
-"But I didn't use my quirk at all" − said the slightly surprised blonde who had been asked that question.
-"Wait, wait, are you saying you made that throw with your own strength?" − Asked the redheaded man, showing emotion in his voice that this was true.
-"I thought that was more than obvious because of the torn I suffered" − Himiko added, hoping that would cut the subject off.
The silence in the classroom came once again as the boys tried to assimilate her words, Iida was lost trying to believe that maybe she was lying to avoid talking about her quirk while Kirishima was surprised and excited that a girl had such a base force, It didn't take long for Himiko to start laughing by hiding part of her face which confused them until Iida approached her to scold her and ask her what was so funny that she would act that way, but unfortunately for her the blonde girl saw her intentions changing completely her happy attitude for a more serious one while giving her a harder look.
-"I can't believe how arrogant you are, anyone can reach a level of strength like I showed with proper training and discipline but it seems that's not enough for you even though you saw it" − the girl's look showed discomfort at having to deal with that kind of behavior again, so she approached the boy showing an intimidating posture that challenged him to say something else.
-"N-no I... I didn't mean to..." − like what happened with kirishima, Iida was trying to find the right words to explain but something told her that dealing with her was the worst thing that could happen to her.
-"So what was your intention?" − Himiko asked again, hoping for an answer that she knew he wouldn't give her and would most likely end up making the situation worse.
-"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to doubt you and I hope you understand that anyone might doubt you if you tell them you weren't using your quirk" − said Iida as she apologized, something in the girl's aura was so intimidating that the boy finally understood why the girls were talking about her to resolve the situation.
-"Okay, okay, you have a point there as to argue unnecessarily Mr. Peebodi, just don't start with your empty monologue about what a hero should be and if it's not too much to ask I'd appreciate it more if you used my name when you wanted to talk to me, it would be too confusing to use my last name under the circumstances" − commented the girl as she sketched a friendly smile and extended her hand in peace, Iida doubted it for a few moments before finally shaking it.
-"I... will be very clear about it, Mi... Himiko-san".
Ok, I know what you must be thinking and maybe you have in mind that I'm going a little overboard with the guys but if you were in my place I'm almost sure you would do the same, sure, maybe in a more subtle way but well, can you blame me for trying? At least I can say that the girls are on my side in this but anyway, so after comparing Iida to a canine character from the pre-chirk era I decided to talk to my group to bring them up to speed on what I had planned for them, as soon as I could finish saying that I would make some burgers and fries to celebrate when I already had them on top of me as a symbiont to their next guest ready to assimilate, if you are starting to wonder why that is because my mom taught me too well in the culinary arts as well as Zuzu but you know, her head is too full of quirks and heroes to pay attention and in my case, well, I worked in a few restaurants in my previous life before becoming a graphic artist so I had plenty of experience.
Going back to my current situation and the somewhat intimidating attitude of the girls for tasting something I cook occasionally ended up making most of the guys leave with the exception of Iida, Kirishima, Shouto (who for some reason looked different from their usual self) as well as the two new students they had never seen in the series... I wondered if there was a reason for them to stay here, don't get me wrong it's just... the way they are looking at me, I guess I should have to ask to clear up my doubt. I started to approach their location and I could tell they looked a little uncomfortable with my presence so I anticipated any reaction by asking if they were okay.
The two girls were surprised when I asked them a question and I ended up causing a small crisis that reminded me a lot of Zuzu in the past, I don't go into much depth and the little we talked about helped me to know why they were acting that way although I don't blame them a threat of expulsion would do that and more, in the end my concerns only turned out to be unfounded since both of them wanted to thank me for having prevented their dream from being over from day one and I must admit it, both are very nice and I think they would fit well with the girls if they were given the chance so you know what I ended up doing, I invited them to join us for our victory celebration for surviving the first day... and I also had to invite Mr. Peabody aka Iida as well as Kirishia and Mentita aka Shoto, I swear I could do a lot of Adventure time theme jokes with him.
In general we finished the day without many problems and the little conviviality we had when we got home was for a lot something that maybe some of us needed, I could not talk to the others about that particular topic and it is not because I forgot or because I did not find the right moment... I just did not want to ruin the moment no matter how stupid that might sound but that was yesterday and today we started a new day with more opportunities to avoid the attack on the USJ, Maybe if I talk directly to Director Nezu even though I would risk ending up with more problems than I can handle and talking to Mr. Aizawa is out of the equation, at least I have the consolation that maybe I can talk it over with Mr. Yagi and he can take the information with the seriousness of a hero of his caliber and make them listen.
-"GOOD AFTERNOON YOUNG PEOPLE, I... AM COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!" − Shouted the peace symbol before entering the classroom moving like a combination between Mick Jagger and Freddy Mercury, something that was praised by all but Himiko who had trouble processing what she was seeing.
-"(What the fuck...?!... it's official, we're going to die in the USJ)".
