It's a new day Jim
~ Sarah Essen
Shoto Todoroki strolled through the empty corridors of the school enjoying the eerie silence. Soon the grounds would be flooded by students hurrying to be on time for the first lesson. He liked coming to school early. That way nobody would disturb him and he could be alone with his thoughts until the rest of his class came with their usual chaos accompanying them.
When he arrived at their homeroom he quietly opened the door and slipped in expecting to be the first one as always. Instead he was greeted by All Might sitting mutly on the chair at the front. If he noticed Shoto entering, he didn't give any indication to it, seeming to be deep in thought.
Todoroki sat down at his table and waited. One after one his comrades entered the room. He watched as Midoriya walked through the door his eyes lightning up with confusion and joy after seeing All Might. Denki and Jirou entered with half closed eyes nearly asleep, closely followed by Bakugo wearing his typical scowl. Lida marched in and soon after the rest of the class was seated in their respective places.
Shoto's mouth lightly curled into a soft smile as he watched his class.
They had taken a pretty hard blow and he had doubted that they would ever return to the way they once were. But now sitting and watching his friends bicker and argue he couldn't help but wonder whether they were closer to their old selfs then they thought. Their smiles had been forced for a long time but now they were coming more naturally.
His thoughts were interrupted by small quite steps that seemed to echo through the chaos. His gaze was pulled to the door.
Every student knew those steps that seemed so innocent and small but could mean an inferno was coming. His curiosity rose the bearer the steps came until the Nedzu finally entered the room and the class fell silent. His face was pulled into that absurd smile he always wore. Each and every student watched him as he made his way to the pedestal at the front of the room. He briefly disappeared bevor his ears appeared above the pult closely followed by the rest of his head. He stole their for a couple of tense seconds in which you could hear a needle drop. Finally he started to speak.
"Good morning everyone, I hope all of you had a pleasant weekend. I'm here today with pleasant news. I'm happy to inform you that we have finally found a fitting homeroom teacher for you."
The Atmosphere in the room instantly shifted from curious to tense and weary.
"I know the last couple of months were hard on you. Infact they were hard on all of us"
Shoto could have sworn he saw at least half of the class shouldee tense.
"But now after a long search I finally came to a decision."
Todoroki watched as All Might's frown deepened. An uncanny aura was surrounding him.
"May I introduce your new Homeroom Teacher"
Quiet sure steps drove Shoto's eyes to de door. As soon as the man of their nightmares entered the class seemed to freeze. Shoto's mouth fell open in silent denial leaving him gasping like a fish.
Aizawa walked in with soundless steps till he stood next to Nedzu and stared straight ahead.
"Aizawa Shouta a.k.a. Eraserhead will once again take over the role as your homeroom teacher. I'm convinced that he will master this responsibility like no other-"
His speech was interrupted by All Might standing up suddenly. He stared at Aizawa intently with anger radiating of him. Aizawa returned his stare easily without a single emotion on his face. When All Might stormed off in his direction Shoto was sure that they would witness a fight between the hero and whatever Eraser was to be called. Instead All might stormed right past him out of the room, hist steps halling in the quiet room.
"You'll excuse me. I'm sure you have a lot of catching up to do"
With that Nedzu followed All Might out the door, his small steps growing more distant until they finally receded.
Todorokis sight was looked on Eraser the whole time as if he expected him to vanish into thin air any moment. Erasee on the other hand returned his blank stare straight ahead into the class. Finally he broke the silence
"Open up your books at page 156"
If someone was to ask Todorki what happened afterword, he would say...
...All Hell broke loose
