My Hero Academia

Tales of the Foreigner

Chapter Seven

A New Day, A New Life

Morning came upon the school of U.A. High as a well rested Heather slowly began to wake up from her slumber. After finishing up the meal given to her by All-Might, taking a shower, and trying to understand how the television works, Heather was fast asleep like a log during the night. She would've slept long if it wasn't for the sun hitting her face due to the curtains not being closed on her window/balcony. The bunny girl blinked upon seeing that she was still in her room that the school gave her for the time being. She couldn't believe that this was real until she pinched herself on the face. Yep, it was real. She wasn't dreaming or anything of the sort.

"Nope, not dreaming...it's hard to believe that I would be in a place like this." She said before pulling herself out of the bed and began to stretch her body a bit, causing a loud cracking sound to come from her body. "Really wish I could sleep in more, but I get the feeling I would get in trouble for doing that." Just as she lets out a low yawn, she soon hears a knock at her door followed by a familiar voice.

"Hey, Heather. You're awake in there?" Mineta asked as he opened the door to her room only to pause upon feeling the room being freezing cold. "Geez, it's freaking cold in here! Don't you have the heater on in here or something?"

"Huh? It doesn't feel cold to me. It kinda feels cool." She said before noticing her arms and hands glowing blue. "Oh...I think that might be because of me."

"Don't you have control over your quirk?"

"I...don't. It just activates at random at times...I'll have to be careful when shaking people's hands if that's the case. Though I doubt anyone would be around me given the way I'm dressed."

"Speaking of that." Mineta walks out of the room for a split second before returning with a set of shoes with bunny cartoon characters on the front part of them. "All-Might left these off to the side of your room." He said as Heather took them and began to examine them before starting to put them on her feet. She lets out a slight giggle upon feeling like she was walking on clouds due to how the shoes felt.

"Wow, what a nice guy. But then again, it's not a surprise. He is the world's number one hero after all." Mineta said as he noticed that Heather was wearing nothing but the bandages covering her entire body, other than her hands and feet.

"You're okay Mineta?" Heather asked as she noticed his face burning bright red as he looked away.

"Y-Yeah! J-Just...um...never notice that the b-bandages covered almost all your body." he said as he would occasionally look upon certain parts of her body as she started to get her clothes on from yesterday. He was mainly staring at her breast and butt areas as he once again had perverted thoughts appearing in his head, but soon stopped himself from thinking this...but would say that he was a one lucky S.O.B for seeing a girl without clothes on in real life...even though the girl is her friend and she was covered in bandages, this still counted in his book.

"Wow, American girls are big in all the right places at times." He thought before noticing Heather fully dressed.

"S-So what will you do with your old clothes when you get some new ones?"

"I'll keep them as night clothes, or for when I'm in the dorms. They're...kinda the only clothes I have from back home before I was…"

"R-Right, right." He said before scratching the back of his head awkwardly. "H-Hey, let's head over to the cafeteria before classes start. Don't want you to be hungry during his lessons." He said before motioning her to follow after him as she follows. Just the two were making their way down the hallway, Heather would notice some of the students staring at her like they did yesterday. Though that might be due to what she's wearing, they might still think she's a villain, or what Mineta said about his reputation. Whatever the case might be, she just focuses her attention on Mineta as they walk together.

"So, are we heading over the classroom?"

"Normally we would be heading over to the cafeteria to get you breakfast, but Aizawa wanted to meet with you personally for some reason."

"...You mean that man with the wraps covering his arms and face?" She asked as Mineta nodded, causing Heather to gulp in fear. "Should I be worried by him?"

"What? No...Maybe a little...H-He a nice guy despite his teaching methods and stuff...He's a cool teacher."

"Not really helping my case, but I'll take your word for it." She said before noticing some of the students looking at her. "It doesn't help that people are staring at me."

"Well you do remember what Principal Nezu said? People think you're in league with the villains that attacked the USJ. Not to mention you look like you were just pull off from the streets of Japan."

"...Technically I was pulled off the streets of Japan."

"Oh, right...a-anyway just be careful and stick by me. I am your friend after all. I know this place like the back of my hand. You got nothing to worry about."

"If you say so." Heather said before noticing Mineta stopping in front of a large door with a sign hanging on the wall next to it that says 1A. "Wow...don't you think having a large door like this is a bit much?"

"Well yeah, but you have to take into account that most people are about that size due to their quirk." He said before making his way to the door, only to pause and turn his attention towards Heather. "Now you'll have to promise me that you'll be a good girl when we enter okay~?"

"Y-Yeah, I'll be a good girl."

"Really~?" Mineta said with a grin appearing on his face. "You promise to be a good girl~?"

"I'll be a good girl, I promise." Heather said as she heard the door to the classroom quickly open up. She turns her attention towards the door to see a man with long black hair with bandages covering his arms and parts of his face, minus the two eyes visible to other people to see if they were up close to him. Heather flinched in surprise upon seeing him, but his attention was drawn onto Mineta as he was glaring at him.

"What are you doing Mineta?" Aizawa asked which caused Mineta to act frantic.

"I wasn't doing anything! J-Just making sure she was...um...going to be okay when she introduces herself to the class." He said which caused Aizawa to turn his gaze upon the bunny girl.

"You must be Heather, correct?" He asked, speaking in english as Heather nodded quickly out of fear of him. "Let me be clear about this. You shouldn't be allowed to be here given this much freedom, especially what happened at the USJ. Not because you saved three of my students which I'm going to assume was by accident, but the fact that you were with the villains that attacked class 1A." Aizawa's eyes glowed red as he slightly moved up towards Heather in a threatening way causing Heather to shiver in fear of him. "I don't trust you one bit. You show any signs of mistrust or villainous intentions. I will take you down. Is that understood?" He asked as Heather nodded in hesitation. "Good, now both of you get inside." with that, Aizawa walked inside and headed towards his desk.

"I...was not expecting that." Mineta said as he looked over at Heather who was on the ground as if she was playing dead. "Whoa are you okay!?"

"Yeah...totally fine...I'm just gonna stay here on the ground...until I'm dead or something along the lines of that." She said which caused Mineta to try and drag her into the classroom by her tail, only to feel her latch onto the side of the door. "Please don't let me go in there with that mummy man?" She asked which caused some of the students in the classroom let out low muffled snickers of laughter. Aizawa let out a groan of annoyance as he turned his attention back onto Heather.

"If you're going to act like this, then I'm going to bring you to Principal Nezu myself." He said which caused Heather to quickly stand up and slowly make her way into the room. Upon entering and standing in front of the classroom, she would see the nineteen students stare at her only to lower her head and stare at the ground. "Introduce yourself to the class."

"H...Hi...M-My name is H-Heather Winter…" She said as she heard some of the students muttering to each other. Aizawa would groan in annoyance, mainly at the way Heather was acting and he knew that it would take almost the entire period of class to get her to say more. He decided to speak up for her, mainly to get this over with.

"Listen up, because I'm going to say this once. As of today, Heather will be interning here at U.A. High School. Specifically she'll be part of class 1A's school curriculum. She can't speak Japanese, so you'll have to talk to her in english so she'll understand what you're saying. Don't bombard her with too many questions or pressure her into asking questions that she doesn't know. And do not grab her hands, less you want to end up like Bakugo when he first interacted with her the other day." He said which caused Bakugo the grunt in annoyance. Heather took notice of the familiar voice as she looked over at Bakugo, who was glaring daggers at her. Which caused her to look away from him. "Now go take your seat in the back so we can begin with class."

"Y-Yes sir." Heather said before quickly making her way in the back part of the classroom.

"Now then, onto today's topic. Don't think that your fight is over just yet just because some of you fought a bunch of villains the other day." he said which caused some of the students to mutter into confusion as to what he meant by that. "The U.A Sports Festival is about to start."
