Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Cold-Hearted Comrades. Enjoy the 2000-word chapter. I don't own My Hero Academia. Shonen Jump, Kohei Horikoshi and a few others do.

Aadne could only ponder what happened next. He leaned on the crimson wall a moment later as he rubbed his temples. He remembered that woman from before, what was her name again? Fuyumi? Yes, he believed that was it.

"Why does everything seem like it's crashing around me?" Aadne asked, brushing off his shirt. "Oh, wait. It is." Aadne muttered, annoyed more than anything had been.

Aadne looked at Fuyumi. The woman was too kind for someone like him, he couldn't believe she was helping him when it came down to it. Still? He respected the fact that she was kind enough to help him, to make him seem more like a good teacher.

"Ms. Todoroki? If I may ask? How long have you been working here if I may ask?" Aadne questioned, crossing his arms nervously as he did so. "You seem to know your way around here much better than I do, no offense. I'm surprised you're helping a teacher who's so inexperienced with his job and such." Aadne added, scratching at his hands nervously.

"A few years. I think 3 or more." Fuyumi said as the duo began their walk down the hallway slowly but surely. "It's no issue, I've worked long enough to know most teachers need some help finding their way around here," Fuyumi added before looking downwards.

He noticed she was holding a cup of coffee, something that he had forgotten. She was running on coffee just like every other teacher. It was almost enough to make him chuckle to himself knowing that he had an ally at the very end of the day.

"Teaching the teacher, hmm?" Aadne asked, earning a chuckle as both teachers looked up at the dim lights of the ceiling above. "Sorry, I'm quite nervous, I have wanted to teach for the longest time, it's just not been as easy as I think," Aadne added, sighing as he leaned on the wall, looking up at the mural of almost fresh painted flowers.

Fuyumi blinked as Aadne sighed, rubbing at the bridge of his nose. He was quite curious as to how this had been so easy to do, filling out forms online. Now? He was freaking out over a simple day of teaching, then again? He had first tried his hand at online tutoring when it came down to it. Fuyumi hummed, understanding what he was going through.

"Teaching isn't easy, it requires a lot of focus and courage. You have to love what you're doing." Fuyumi stated as Aadne nodded, rubbing at his neck as he did so. "It's a much harder thing to do when you are busy focusing on duties like that, isn't it? It's fine being nervous on the first day when you don't know anything, as bad as it is? It makes the kids less nervous because they know their teacher is trying to be a good mentor." Fuyumi said as Aadne hummed, blinking with interest.

"You have a future in motivational speaking I think," Aadne stated to which Fuyumi smiled, more amused at the moment. "I don't think it's so much that. I love teaching. I love helping people, it's just not easy to process." Aadne added while he started to walk around the house.

Aadne was silent as her friend happened to think. She started to consider the options. The lack of details at the end of the day? It bothered her.

"It's ok, my first day wasn't the easiest either when it came down to it," Fuyumi stated while she started to hum. "It's scary at times. I know with time it starts to become easier to deal with. It just takes some time to get used to it." Fuyumi added as Aadne was silent.

He gave enough of a nod to tell her that he understood the answer he had given her. The more time he devoted to dwelling on this at the time? The more he started to become scared that he wouldn't be good enough.

"Maybe, but I'm still wondering what their think if they found out their teacher is a goofball at the end of the day," Aadne stated before he crossed his arms. "I feel shy when I'm here like there's so much pressure," Aadne added and watched his new friend start to smile.

Fuyumi knew that he wanted nothing more than to leave. The first day was always the worst for a teacher, they had so much pressure to be the best at it. The ice-wielding teacher was entirely used to it.

"I'm starting to think you don't know how to feel fear on this sort of thing," Aadne said which caused the woman to raise an eyebrow. "There's plenty of reasons for people to be worried. I don't know why as well; I'm starting to feel… Cold as well." Aadne added before she started to think.

"Cold? Your cold?" Fuyumi asked as her friend rolled his eyes. "I'm sorry. It's part of my quirk. Did I tell you that and all at the moment?" Fuyumi added before she raised an eyebrow.

"I don't think you mentioned it at the moment," Aadne responded while he raised an eyebrow. "That's cool. I'm sorry, I didn't tell the joke on purpose. How does it work?" Aadne put in as he shook his head.

Fuyumi was entirely curious that there was plenty to digest. The duo started to think of what happened next as the bell started to ring, making both look over. He started to think about what happened next.

There were plenty of problems when it came down to it. He had no real reason to not be terrified at the moment. He had little plans while he frowned to himself at the moment.

"Let me show you around the school some more," Fuyumi said while she started to drag him from the town. "It's weird at the moment, but you seem to be adapting to it better than one expects if I'm honest with you," Fuyumi added while she slowly led him around the school with a rather soldier-like grace that didn't seem to be there a moment ago.

Still? He didn't let it bother him as much as he seemed to want it to. She was trying to help and he had no real reason to wish for anything bad to befall her at the time. Nothing was stopping him from walking away if he so chose at the moment either.

Nothing besides his wits and sense of humor. It hadn't been a lot in his mind if he was entirely honest. He was still terrified out of his mind at the time and it annoyed him that he cared so blasted little about important things… Yet he was terrified of things that didn't seem as if they were a giant deal to him as of now.

He didn't find it to be a problem in his opinion. The fear within himself was something natural when it came to these sorts of topics. There was so much on his mind as to how to best handle it.

He watched Fuyumi slowly start to drag him after her before he sighed to himself and started to ponder what to do next. He slowly started to traipse behind the woman with a raised eyebrow as he seemed to be far more interested in how she had handled her job here.

Still? He wasn't at all scared when he seemed to spend time around her. Maybe it was simply because there were plenty of teachers and yet she made sure to protect and tutor him for no real reason when it came to it. She didn't at all seem annoyed by him when it came down to her as of now. He was perhaps too scared when she perhaps pondered what to do it. She had been ready when it came down as she questioned herself.

Both seemed to have their destinies. Their desires needed to be carried onward. It was going to be a lot odder than it seemed. Honestly? The fact that so much had come to pass at the moment, well, who could blame the confusion that had passed over them? It was still part of life either way and neither wished to truly dwell on this either way. There was going to be more time spent on this than anything else.

She rubbed at the bridge of her nose and glanced around the room. This would be odd. A lot odder than she expected it to be. A lot odder than she expected. Still? There would be time enough for that later, time for this to come to an end more than anything else.

Still? There was so much on the line if the slack wasn't properly picked up. So much slack to be done and picked up. There was only so much that could be done to properly bring this to heel. The sooner it was said and done? The sooner they could get back to real business.

There was to be so much done and so little time to do it in. this was going to be damn near impossible for her to properly deal with this. She stared at her friend who couldn't begin to fathom what was to be done next.

He stayed silent as he seemed to glance at her. He cracked his fingers at him as he tilted his head at his surroundings. It was honestly a lot harder a pill to swallow that he was here at the second.

"Is this place this quiet when classes are picked up?" Aadne questioned before he tilted his head before he sighed. "I'm so nervous I can't even focus properly," Aadne stated before he tilted his head and sighed at the second. He was going to be hopeful

There was a lot more on the second as of the time. he was going to be focused on this mission when it came down to it.

It had been odd, really odd. This school made him more nervous than anyone else here. She was going to be focused more on this work than anything else.

This place was something else. It was a lot odder on the second. It had made him curious at the second. He was odd when it came down to it. More problems were going to be obvious when it came down to it. There were a lot more problems that had to be solved before this ended. The more time wasted here? The more that he found the more fear in his system started to fade back into his body. He was curious as to the time.

Fuyumi started to lead him through the halls and toward the next piece of the school. He felt as if he was annoyed. This was a lot more hopeful than trying to wade through the school and pray and hope that there was something to be found here. This had to end sooner or later. It had been a lot more obvious that he was shy and still learning the ropes.

'She's either the most patient whom I'd met, or she's being paid a dump truck worth of money when it comes down to it. I'm going to scream when it comes down to it.' Aadne questioned.

He sighed as he tilted his head before he questioned what to do next at the moment.
