"Sayako…" Shoto furrows his brow at Sayako as the two stand side by side still feeling a fair few eyes on them once the two are alone.
"What?" Sayako scowls, furrowing her brow at Shoto.
"That was my fight you didn't have to…" Todoroki begins but…
"He was ticking me off." Annoyed, Sayako scowls crossing her arms over her chest.
"And I appreciate you defending me but I can defend myself." Sternly, Shoto reminds Sayako.
"It wasn't just about you…" Sayako grumbles glaring to the side.
"What do you mean?" Shoto furrows his brow befuddled.
"I just…as selfish as it sounds I hate people like him." Honestly, Sayako sighs confessing the fact.
"Hate is a strong word." Shoto points out.
"This coming from you…Todo why do you think I dyed my hair brown?" Sighing, she asks her friend shyly twirling a shy strand of blonde with hints of brown.
"Cause you thought brown would suit you." Shoto shrugs unsure.
"Well I mean yeah it was that or red but no what I mean is…I hated my old man for years seeing his face whenever I'd look at the mirror hurt me, hurt my dad so I dyed it, dyed it so I wouldn't see his face. Hearing someone say those sorts of words just…" Sayako sighs furrowing her brow tense scowling at the thought, feeling a slight pang of embarrassment hit her.
"I get it." Shoto nods his head in understanding.
"Todo…" Sayako begins but…
"I appreciate your help but I can take care of myself." Resolved, Shoto reminds her.
"I know…" Sayako sighs slumping her shoulders.
"You're probably also going to be penalised for that." Todoroki points out.
"…Probably…you think Aizawa found out?" Aloofly, Sayako ponders out loud.
"Most likely." Todoroki deadpans.
"Welp whatever happens doesn't matter now. Todo just make sure when I die they put on ding dong the witch is dead or another one bites the dust." Seriously, Sayako tells her friend placing her hand on his shoulder being serious.
"I…I don't know what those songs are." Truthfully, Todoroki tells Sayako sweat dropping.
"Just tell Jiro she'll understand." Sayako waves him off.
"That is oddly specific…" Shoto furrows his brow at her.
"I have a whole file under my bed." Briskly, she reassures him.
"Should…should I be concerned about that?" Todoroki furrows his brow.
"Depends on you, I mean with hero work you never know…I wouldn't waste my time worrying about it though." Truthfully, she tells Todoroki.
"Villains have performed a large scale terrorist attack spanning all over the insert city name here since most buildings collapsed they are trapped there!" Surprised, the two jolt up at the voice turning to the screen showing said destroyed city terrain.
"So then…" Todoroki begins his hues narrowing.
Stunned Sayako stares at the battered, blooded, beaten corpse of her father standing right before her proudly presented before her, on a slick silver platter almost as she too is overwhelmed with fear, feeling her throat clamp up as she dry heaves, trying to get the ruined remains of slick silver out of her throat only to find chunks of orange and acid being thrown out instead. Sweat slithers down her tense temple the stench of air hanging heavily in the air as she screams, screeches, shouts to the high heavens but nothing comes out as if the debris around her had lodged in her mouth making her unable to utter a single sound of aid, a pathetic plea for help…
"Sayako?" Startled, Sayako jolts up at the voice turning sharply to Todoroki concern clear on his face when taking note of the girl's sudden silence taking note of her flinch from his touch alone as he reels back briefly, worry clear on his face from her grim grave facial features.
"H-Huh yeah…excuse me." Meekly, Sayako smiles before taking her leave heading out.
"Wait Sayako we should…!" Shoto begins brow furrowing watching her wander off beginning the exam as she shoots off.
"Where do you think you're going hey Bakugo!" Mad, Mina calls out but it falls to deaf ears as the boy leaves, a bouncy blonde ad roaring red head following behind.
"Shiketsu high first year Yoarashi Inasa hero alias Gale! Rescue maneuvers overflowing let's go!" Loudly, Inasa hollers as he comes crashing down blowing the debris away with his wind.
"Inasa!?" The furball, Nagamasa scowls at the first year.
"Hoho wind!?" The elderly man takes note of as the other Shiketsu second years tend to those in need of aid.
"So crude or so it would seem…human or rubble depending on the size or form he's adapting induvial gusts of wind to move each object what unbelievably precise control…!" The elderly woman by the man's side takes note of evaluating said rescue.
"Nonetheless still too crude minus points!" Loudly, the man berates him.
"I see that's my bad!" Inasa bows his head to the concrete once more, ruby red spewing out the side of his temple.
"Don't take action without confirming the safety of the environment or the condition of the injured! You might aggravate the situation." Nagamasa scolds the younger year.
"Hey Kemi's not here again what's up with her?" One of the Shiketsu students take note of.
"Hey you okay?" Sayako asks as she slides down.
"I-I think so." Shyly, said man whimpers.
"What's your name?" She asks him.
"Aki…" The man says.
"Can you stand Aki?" Softly, she asks.
"I…my arm it's." Surprised, said man begins but soon sees strings coil around putting it in a certain angle.
"Thank you…Is the first aid station ready?" Sayako smiles softly at him before turning towards the other heroes.
"Uh…" Unsure, the Shiketsu student begins as Inasa hues widen when seeing her.
"Over here!" She perks up at Shindo.
"Thanks!" She picks up the little boy following Shindo towards the station.
"Please help us! It hurts!" Wailing, the elderly man and woman wail up at Katsuki, Kaminari and Kirishima towering over them.
"Our arms are injured!" The man by the woman's side states.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Katsuki yells down at the two startling scaring them.
"WHAAA!?" Both of them gawk at Katsuki.
"HELP YOUR OWN DAMN SELVES!" Snarling, Katsuki barks down at them.
"You just went full Bakugo on them." Kirishima sweat drops.
"They might be seriously injured dude!" Denki argues anxiously.
"But our rule is to act as slightly injured low priority rescues." Katsuki grumbles glaring to the side.
"No way! In just a split second he saw us and decided to tell us to move by ourselves…?" The man turns to the woman.
"We're really lucking out with that interpretation of theirs." Kirishima sweat drops.
"But still that way of talking…minus points!" Harshly, the man yells at Katsuki who happily yells back at the person he is supposed to save.
"I suspected they'd fall behind." Tiredly, Aizawa sighs shaking his head at the old ma berating his class.
"Hm…maybe but that girl of yours is doing pretty good." Impressed, Joke remarks leaning in seeing said girl use her strings to move debris aside, saving so many but in terms of talking well…
"This was what her quirk favours." Aizawa leans back in his seat.
"Yeah her old man is known to be quite the rescue hero no?" Joke remarks making Aizawa's hues narrow.
"Let's see if she can live up to that station." Sighing, Aizawa mutters under his breath.
"What's the status?" A girl asks as Sayako rushes over holding the man in her arms.
"As far as the initial response goes quite a number of subpar individuals but that said the folks from the hub are dealing out fewer point deductions than I imagined they would by and large things are going pretty well don't you think?" The man reports to Sayako staring down at the man marking her.
"In order to protect townsfolk heroes will be asked to carry out complex operations not just relief measures but also…" Mera from afar smirks as he presses down the computer key summoning said secret boss.
"Oh you got to be shitting me." Miserably, she mutters under her breath brow furrowing when perking up at the sudden sound of an explosion turning towards the gaping hole.
"Will you fight or flee? Will you protect or attack? How will you respond heroes!?" Haughtily, the voice echoes emerging from the smoke spewing out of the crater, thousands upon thousands of goons behind the figure.
The hero who was working under Endeavour and Best Jeanist orders at the time of the Kamino ward…beware he is strong he is currently ranked number 10 and in the most looks like a villain ranking he is number 3…"
"Gang Orca!?" Midoriya gawks gaping at the sheer sight of the supposed villain.
"With the appearance of the villains the purist has begun hero cadets you must supress the villains." Loudly, Mera calls out from the speakers surrounding the arena.
"Are you serious!? Isn't this a little overkill?!" Denki argues anxiously.
"A situation that would be difficult even for a pro…the provisional licence exam will go this far?" Frowning, Midoriya mutters under his breath.
"Get everyone to safety!" Seriously, Shindo lunges towards the orca as he leaps from the supposed hurt civilians on the snow-white blanket being tended to as the villains approach.
"Shindo wait!" Midoriya cries out to him.
"Do it get them as far away from the people as possible. I'll start hammering away at the henchmen with one second intervals!" Shindo yells as he crouches down placing his hands down on the ground.
"Right!" The others comply as Sayako turns her hues dilating.
"Shindo don't!" Sayako tries to warn him but said boy ignores her as tremors course through the dirt, shaking the ground beneath them, trying to stop the villain or at the least buy time for them.
"Weren't expecting that? Nice try!" Surprised, Shindo gasps as Orca appears right before his eyes, snatching Shindo, releasing a sound wave right into Shindo's ears.
"Whoa dang look at that he's going all out." Joke remarks.
"I wonder…" Aizawa mutters eyeing the bands around his wrist.
"Shind-Huh?" Scared, Midoriya calls out to the knocked-out mess, his hues white only then to falter from the blonde blur being thrown the orca's way swiftly slamming her heels into the side of Gang Orca. Stunned, Midoriya stares at the orca being thrown back, slamming their heel to the ground, steadying themselves as Sayako catches the falling figure of Shindo.
"A single rear guard to hold us back you underestimate me…Sayako." Scowling, Gang Orca remarks.
"Trust me that wasn't my plan." Snippily, Sayako scowls eyeing the boy in her arms.
"Shindo!" Midoriya rushes over to Sayako's side.
"Wha…what are you doing!?" The blonde rushes over joining Midoriya looking worriedly over Shindo.
"Saving your butt." Sayako scowls standing up passing the body over to the blonde before turning to face Gang Orca.
"Sayako!" Midoriya scowls at her.
"It's fine leave him to me. I know how he fights." Firmly, Sayako assures Midoriya.
"How…?" Midoriya begins but soon stops himself when taking note of said Orca standing.
"Sayako…I respect your parents a great deal but don't think you're going to get any special treatment from me." Gang Orca growls, glaring down at the girl.
"Aw not even when you're my god father." Cheekily, Sayako smirks slightly amused almost at his firm frown or well she thought it was a frown, most people tended to frown at her.
"God father or not…! Will you fight or flee?" Firmly, he demands from her.
"We'll have to wait and see." Smirking, she shrugs.
"Todoroki!" Midoriya and Sayako's hues expand at the sudden spike of ice sent Gang Orca's way forming a barrier between both god father and god daughter.
"Midoriya are you evacuating? We'll help!" Ochako calls out rushing over to his side.
"Todoroki's so fast!" Ojiro takes note of.
"We found hurt people by the river everyone went to the city so we looked towards the outskirts but we couldn't stand by and watch these villains do this." Todoroki fills the others in.
"Todoroki aim your ice at the grunts they got the water Gang Orca needs to continue fighting." Frowning, Sayako calls out to him.
"Hm smart girl…" Gang Orca chuckles amused almost just as he releases a sonic wave breaking the ice wall.
"What the…?" Todoroki blinks baffled by his strength fire soon shooting out of his hand aimed at Gang Orca just as he was about to aim at the grunts much to Sayako's annoyance at the change of plan.
"I'm going to blow you evil doers away!" Surprised, both Todoroki and Sayako flinch from the sudden sharp streams of wind.
"…I'm going to kill him." Sayako grumbles glaring at the fierce flames being swiftly brushed away by the wind.
"Seems your plan failed." Orca lunges at Sayako snatching her throwing her to the side as she is thrown into a crater of rock, making her hiss.
"No shit!" Scowling, she glares up at Gang Orca before she comes crashing down, dust spewing out from the crash collision. She slams her hand firmly flat on the ground, her glaring greens focusing on the task at hand…
"Good they're prioritising the rescue station which is the top priority of the rescue effort that's smart of them." Approvingly, Meru nods his head seeing said heroes in training pick up those injured trying to lead them away from the fight.
"And they put the three best students to go against gang orca back nice work." One of the men in suits remarks eyeing the files showing Todoroki, Inasa and Sayako.
"Of course you're here too!" Tensely, Inasa sneers scowling seething glaring, glowering down at Todoroki.
"Why don't you go and help with the first aid station instead? Your quirk would be good for that. Sayako and I had orca covered until you came along." Annoyed, Todoroki sneers scowling at Inasa, the main cause in his head for Sayako getting hurt. They had a plan, they had it figured out, they'd dehydrate gang orca have him flee from the fight giving the other heroes enough time to evacuate the injured of course he didn't listen…and now thanks to him, his friend was hurt and their plan had fallen apart. Todoroki couldn't help but feel his fiery side ignore slightly at the man hovering above.
"Huh? Where are they aiming?" Confused, one of Gang Orca's men question as both fire and wind clash causing hot air to be dispersed into the air.
"Why did you use your flames!? Heat makes the air rise up." Incensed, Inasa demands from Todoroki.
"Midoriya! Take the civilians out of here!" Sayako swiftly calls out to him slamming her fist down on the ground as threads spread out tripping the minions trying to chase after them only to cry out as they fall flat to the ground again, Gang Orca could feel the resistance from below as his legs tried to pull, tug their way to freedom as Sayako struggled.
"Oh come the fuck on!" Loudly, Sayako complains out loud but it falls to deaf ears.
"Because he didn't fall for my ice earlier! You ruined my shot on purpose didn't you?! Using your wind to blow away my fire! We had a plan until you came along and ruined it!" Fuming, Todoroki snaps scowling at Inasa.
"You blocked me so you could get all the glory!" Inasa barks back.
"What!? Why would I do something like that!?" Todoroki demands baffled by the accusation.
"Why wouldn't you!? Hatred's in your blood you are Endeavour's son!" Snarling, Inasa angrily assumes.
"What the hell is been up with you this whole time!? My old man's got nothing to do w-" Fed up, Todoroki demands from him only to gasp as a sudden slump of goop hits both boys, making Inasa come crashing down from the air as Todoroki is glued by his leg to the ground.
"Like my submit gun good luck in trying to move with that on?" Tauntingly, one of Gang Orca's lackeys remarks.
"This is outrageous. I can't believe you're arguing." Angrily, Gang Orca huffs.
"Point deduction some of us could have a heart attack!" Angrily one of the fake victims exclaims.
"It has everything to do with your cold blooded father to me heroes should be full of passion they bring hope and passion to people with fire burning in their hearts they care! It was a shock to meet your father cause all I could see in his eyes was an insatiable anger at the world and then at the entrance exam I saw you and I knew who you were immediately because when I said hello…" Seething, Inasa reveals slamming his eyes shut at the miserable memory of his younger self hopeful for Endeavours autograph only to be brushed aside, his pen and paper slapped out of his hands as the young Inasa stares scared at the sheer intensity of Endeavours blue swiftly meeting them at the gate of U.A.
"Your eyes were the same as his." Inasa concludes his pint remembering having won the track, turning to greet Todoroki only to be coldly brushed off by the younger Todoroki.
"You think we're the same don't be ridiculous. You're a fool I'm nothing like him." Resolved, Todoroki refuses.
"You and your father are the only heroes I can't accept you don't deserve the title now MOVE! AGAIN!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" Mad, Inasa roars as he tries to fire a gust but fierce flames swiftly cut it out or at the least try to…
"Are you!?" Surprised, the group jolt up at the voice turning to see the blonde blur lunge over, a thin string propelling her forward as she reels her prosthetic back bashing it into Gang Orca.
"Huh?" Inasa turns to the voice.
"Sayako!?" Todoroki turns to his friend baffled by the sheer sight of the normally weak girl stunned to see the orca be thrown into the wall, an indent created from such a strike.
"Guess you…you reap what you sow!" Smirking, Sayako snaps as she stands tall, smirking.
"Bos-ARGH! Our guns!" Surprised, the minions gasp as their guns are swiftly destroyed by thin strings of sorts.
"What the…!?" The grunts gasp as next they knew they felt themselves be tugged down to the ground.
"Threads?" Another voices out feeling the thin threads pull them to the ground pin them.
"Wait…threads!? Erasure isn't that…?" Joke's hues widen when seeing the familiar cage of sorts seeing the mins trapped within.
"My student yes…" Aizawa confirms a hint of pride in his tone smirking down at the girl.
"Smart she knew if she feigned being knocked out the focus would be on the two other strongest students giving her ample time to set her threads on them…" Joke remarks impressed as she leans against the plush pillow of her gloved palm.
"Heh like father like daughter…to use his technique perhaps there's hope after all." Aizawa mutters his hues narrowing at the spider like web of sorts formed from the girl below.
"I wouldn't move if I were you, I've reinforced these to the point that one wrong move and it's bye bye arm but don't worry losing an arm isn't as bad as you'd think trust me." Bitterly, Sayako huffs as a shimmering sheen gleams on the threads making the grunts grimace feeling the threads dig into their immobile forms but her hues remained focused on Gang Orca feeling said threads pin him to the wall.
"Perhaps for a normal human it would be troublesome but as for me…not good enough!" Enraged, Gang Orca roars luging as his sleeves are torn from him but the braces remained firmly intact as he lunges at her.
"Dammit! You'd risk your men to win!?" Sayako scowls leaping back just as the minions gasp feeling the threads loosen around them.
"Some villains… don't care for comradery!" Gang Orca reels his fist back hitting Sayako in the gut.
"Sayako!" Todoroki cries out to the girl being thrown back, salvia spewing out of her as he curses he knew Sayako she was no brawler, there was a reason why she was so agile all the time.
"Can't believe I'm bloody saying this…you two get your shit together god!" Sharply, she snaps at both boys taken aback by her outburst as next Todoroki knew Gang Orca had grabbed him, firing a sonic blast in his face prying him free from the prison but at the cost of his hearing and perhaps consciousness cursing Sayako scowls at the damage done to her friend.
Both boys bow their head, slamming their eyes shut pained anguished at the sad fact of the mattering making them grind their teeth together coming to the revelation as next Orca knew….
"A cyclone prison of wind and fire not bad an ordinary villain would give up and beg for mercy but what would you do if your desperate trap was not enough! You must always be planning your next move so…what now?" Impressed, Orca admires their attempt at fighting, seeing the fierce flames of the tornado around him, using the wind to almost guide said tornado as he stands in the eye of it. However even with that trump card, her hues narrow noting the familiar outline of a gun passed over by one of the minions making her curse the device as next she knew, the tornado has ceased and gang orca stood there towering over them all.
Scowling, Sayako lunge at Gang Orca, seeing the music all over his face from the gun as she reels her foot back about to strike only to gasp as he swiftly snatches said leg and…
"The Provisional licence exam has been completed." Monotone, Mero's voice rings out as next Sayako knew, she had gone limp being hung upside down by her god father.
"Huh…well that's anticlimactic…" Casually, Sayako remarks shrugging sheepishly staring at the upside down figures before her, looking to the side towards her god father of sorts seeing him holding her upside down, the two simply stare not fazed by the rather strange position of the two.
"Sorry boss. Guess we didn't do our job all that well and your restraining gear must have made it pretty hard to move." Apologetic, one of Orca's grunts remark.
"No. The gear wasn't the problem. The tower of flames was an inspired attack I take it that's why you were trying to hint earlier is that right Sayako?" Orca cranes his neck slightly staring down at his god daughter of sorts simply waving from side to side giggling a bit bemused by the position as Orca couldn't help but sweat drop at the man child that was his god child.
"I wouldn't say hint I mean you're literally an orca no water no good. So…think you can let me go now?" Honestly, Sayako says shrugging once more; she gestures with her arms about it before asking polity.
"Of course apologies." Politely, he softly sets her down oblivious to the gawking faces watching on.
"Eh it's fine." Feebly, she waves him off.
"Are you sure? Your arm…" Gang Orca begins but…
"I could say the same to you." Sayako eyes his bracelet seeing the crack in his armoured band to think her prosthetic had managed that…she never had such strength before…
"This is nothing." Gang Orca brushes his cracked band aside.
"Then so is this." Smirking, she shrugs him off.
"…I see you're blonde again." Orca takes note of reaching out to pinch one of her stray strands.
"Yep." Shyly, she smiles brushing the stray strand of blonde behind her ear.
"You look good with blonde hair." Gang Orca compliments her.
"Didn't you say the same when I turned brown?" Sayako arches a brow bemused.
"Nevertheless it's good to see you with blonde hair again." Smoothly, Gang Orca recovers.
"…Thanks." Tentatively, she smiles at him.
"How's Hikaru?" He queries intrigued.
"Your godchild is safe and sound." Smirking, Sayako promises.
"Good…still I see some fragment of my training has worked out." Pleased, Orca looks over at his cracked arm band.
"If you mean that sonic sound of yours not making me pass out then I suppose I owe my thanks for the training." Teasingly, Sayako recalls.
"You've grown into a strong woman Sayako." Orca tells her a hint of pride in his tone taking her aback.
"Not strong enough." Sayako mutters staring down at her prosthetic furrowing her brow a it.
"You will with time. Now you should go get yourself and your arm checked on." Gently, the claw coiled around her prosthetic softly seeing it as Sayako smiles shyly appreciative of the small sense of comfort her god father gave her.
"Yeah, yeah I know…" Smiling, she looks up at him, seeing a shy shimmering glint of understanding, the two seemingly understanding one another at the thought of appearances.
"Sayako no matter what happens your father would be proud." Gang Orca tells her.
"…" Silently, said girl bows her head not quite sure what to make of his words feeling the pain in her constriction chest only then to perk up at…
"Sayako we got to go." Todoroki calls out to her making her turn to the boy.
"Right…see you around Orcy." Smiling, Sayako salutes him winking briefly before leaving.
"That girl… something's never change." Chuckling, Gang Orca shakes his head at the fleeting figure of the girl.
"So…mind telling me when gang orca was your god father?" Todoroki asks making her arch a brow.
"Well I mean you ever asked besides it's only really in America him and Jeanist seem to get along well." Lazily, she shrugs stretching, she didn't think much of it, when she was a kid, he'd pop in now and again. But it was mainly to train her or ask how her studies were or really just berate her for her crude words. On the plus side he seemed to have just dropped it over the years, giving up on correcting her if only her father could catch up.
"Him and Jeanist huh?" Shoto says as she shrugs, she means he was technically Hikaru's god father, she saw him as a family friend she supposed on her father's side.
"Hm?" Sayako hums arching a brow.
"Never mind come on." Shoto sighs shaking his head at her while she simply furrows her brow befuddled not quite sure what to say so she dismisses it as the two head over to get their results…
"Hello everybody and thank you for waiting you have all worked hard. I will now begin by presenting the results of the examination. But beofre that I have a few words in terms of how we went about elevating you…between us members of the hero public safety commission and our colleagues from the HUC. We had two systems of point deduction that were combined to evaluate your performance. In short we were examining both the quality and nature of your conduct in situations of crisis. The names of those who passed the exam will be displayed here in alphabetical order with all that in mind please go ahead and review the results yourself." Mera gestures to the screen showing those that passed.
"Yay my name is there!" Tooru exclaims.
"I MADE IT!" Mina cheers.
"THANK GOODNESS!" Ochako whimpers.
"Heh…" Kirishima smirks.
"Merci!" Animatedly, Aoyama cheers chirpily.
"Little strokes fell great oaks as they say." Mezo exclaims.
"Ribbit." Tsuu exclaims.
"Woohoo!" Denki exclaims.
"WHERE'S MY NAME DAMMIT!?" Angrily, Katsuki snaps snarling seething while Sayako furrows her brow by the lack of her name, feeling her heart drop, feeling her chest constrict, feeling her blood boil by the sad truth, glaring, glowering at the merry Mineta cheering over his win, baffling Sayako seething snarling internally.
"Sayako…" Softly, Shoto whispers reaching out to her but…
"Todoroki! I'M SORRY! You failed to pass. It was all my fault my lack of heart is definitely to blame FORGIVE ME!" Loudly, Inasa calls out approaching him before bowing, slamming his head into the ground once more, scarlet streams descend down his tense temple.
"From the very beginning this was a result of the seeds which I had sown so cut that out. You really gave it to me straight back there and thanks to that, there were some important things I came to realize…" Truthfully, Todoroki confesses to Inasa before turning in hopes of seeing Sayako hoping for her argument as well only for his hues to widen when seeing said girl gone, seeing the fleeting figure of the girl gone making him sigh sadly, slowly following after her.
Silently, Sayako saunters over to the bench brow furrowing as she sits down, slumped against the bench brow furrowing. She bows her head, her head in her hands, tears threatening to fall making her sniffle slightly, scowling, blinking back the tears threatening to fall. She failed…she failed…she…what was even the point of her being here? How could she think she should have come back? How could she…? She didn't deserve this, it should have been Shinso here not her not…
Sayako sniffles slightly scowling at the thought, furrowing her brow by the thought, how could she fail? She did what she had to, she rescued those people, she…how did someone like Mineta pass? How did a perv like him even get into UA? His quirk was weak, was pathetic, was…she had been trained to do this her entire life, rescue was her forte, it was her quirks specialty! It was his specialty so how could she fail?! How…!? Frustration flows through Sayako trying to blink back the heated tense tears in her hues feeling her blood boil, bubble, burn oblivious to…
"You okay?" Surprised, Sayako jolts up at the voice turning to the black haired male.
"Needed some air." Aloofly, Sayako whispers quickly using the cuff of her jacket wiping away the tears.
"…Sayako." Aizawa sighs slowly sitting down by her side.
"Do you enjoy it?" Irritated, Sayako couldn't help but ask as she grit her teeth together, trying to stop the fury flooding through her from taking control. He knew…he knew she wasn't ready for this, he knew she had just recovered, he knew…
"Enjoy what?" Aizawa arches a brow befuddled.
"Seeing me fail? Seeing me struggle? Seeing me have my hopes be crushed?" Coldly, she demands from him crossing her arms over her chest grimacing at the aching searing sensation in her chest, ignoring the brief crack of her voice. Was this some sort of sick trick to get her to lower her pride? To break it? Was this out of spite? Was…was he trying to make her feel shit out of frustration for her attitude in class?
"That isn't it Sayako." Sternly, Aizawa tells the girl but…
"Then what is it? What was the point? You knew I barely got used to this arm and then you decide to throw me in this stupid exam." Impatiently, she demands from him fuming, standing up from the bench demanding the truth from him as his hues widen when seeing her glassy green glare down at him.
"I knew you could pass." Resolved, he tells her.
"Well look how well that worked out and here I thought my self-esteem couldn't be any fucking lower…" Seething, she stretches her arms out exasperated.
"Maybe if you hadn't punched that gale guy your points wouldn't have been deducted!" Annoyed, Aizawa points out.
"What?" Sayako flinches from his remarks as she turns on her heel turning to stare stunned at him.
"You think it's just the exam they watch you in they saw your display they saw you split up from your group time and time again hero work isn't just being by yourself Sayako." Seriously, Aizawa tells the girl.
"Well it feels like it sometimes." Scowling, Sayako huffs plopping herself back down on the bench bitterly turning away from him.
"Sayako!" Sharply, Aizawa scowls down at her.
"What you think? Just cause I have this arm I need to rely on everyone else that I can't fight for myself!" Mad, Sayako sneers seething glaring glowering at her prosthetic.
"That isn't what I mean…" Aizawa begins but…
"I shouldn't be here he should be here instead." Huffing, Sayako scowls glaring to the side.
"Sayako." Softly, Aizawa hears the hitch of her voice.
"He would have passed." Pained, Sayako whispers bowing her head in her hands.
"I don't think he would have. I thought you would pass but you blew it by letting your emotions get the best of you." Gently, Aizawa kneels down placing his hand on her shoulder trying to comfort console her in his own awkward way but…
"Sayako…Mr Aizawa?" Astonished, Shoto stares surprised to see his teacher.
"Shoto what are you…?" Sayako begins brow furrowed confusion clear on her face.
"I'll leave you to it." Aizawa arises from his seated form, standing up leaving the two to it.
Quietly, the still silence hangs heavily in the air as Sayako simply stares scowling down at the ground below feeling her boy shake, quiver, quake…
"You failed." Frowning, Shoto states the fact firmly slashing the open air of tension tightly hanging over the two.
"As did you." Snippily, Sayako huffs crossing her arms over her chest, glaring, glowering to the side.
"Guess our tornado wasn't enough." Shoto sighs sadly sitting down by her side.
"And seems me punching that passion fucker screwed me over too." Tiredly, Sayako grumbles glaring to the side.
"…Sayako I'm…I'm sorry as is Inasa." Todoroki points out.
"Don't be I put myself into that situation not you." Sayako sighs slumping her shoulders solemnly sadly staring down at the ground below.
"Are you…okay?" Tentatively, Todoroki asks her.
"Mentally I feel like a piece of shit and no doubt Mineta and the others are going to shove it in my fucking face." Fuming, Sayako sneers seething, feeling her blood boil, bubble, burn.
"Sayako." Shoto sighs at her.
"How did that runt even get in? Was he in recommendations? Urgh him getting in our class is a mystery I'll never understand." Scowling, Sayako grumbles glaring, glowering at the ground below bitterly.
"If it's anything you're not alone." Softly, Shoto offers some sense of comfort.
"I know that Todoroki but I just…" Sayako sighs sadly.
"You what?" Todoroki asks her.
"People already see me as weak with this arm now people are going to pity me even more now with this whole fail thing I don't need their fucking pity." Sayako explains leaning back against the bench fuming.
"…I don't pity you if that helps I think you're strong Sayako." Shoto offers.
"Clearly not enough." Sayako scowls glaring at the ground.
"Sayako…" Shoto sighs at his friend.
"I got kidnapped Shoto. I'm the daughter of a hero, my parents were exposed thanks to me…I shouldn't…" Sayako scowls furrowing her brow trying to find the words but…
"Any one of us would have…You went through something traumatic you lost something important Saya trauma is not easy to fix trust me on that but…if you want to talk." Tentatively, Todoroki offers making Sayako smile sadly.
"Thanks Todo." Softly, Sayako whispers, grateful for her friend.
"You're not alone in this we'll succeed together." Todoroki tells her promising her.
"And wait another year or so." Sayako sighs sadly.
"No they said there's a revisional course me you and Katsuki will be taking." Todoroki tells her.
"Katsuki didn't pass?" Perplexed, Sayako blinks baffled.
"He didn't pass." Todoroki confirms.
"Why am I not surprised by that?" Sayako mutters.
"We'll catch up together." Todoroki tells her.
"Yeah…together." Sayako smirks at her friend grateful for her friend's aid…
"You took your time." Tiredly, a pair of ruby red glare glower at the blonde in the alleyway, goop drooping off the brown haired girl now exposing Toga beaming brightly at him. The boy in the alleyway wears a black jumper with a orange and yellow scarf wearing a pair of grey distressed jeans and black combat boots, their nails a bright orangish yellow, a glistening gold.
"Sorry for the wait Rochi!" Teasingly, Toga winks at him.
"Here." Orochi sighs removing his coal black jacket and orange scarf with hints of yellow.
"Aw you're so thoughtful." Thankful, Toga smiles as Orochi smoothly slides the coat over.
"So how was it?" Orochi asks taking note of the goop that was Cami's skin disguise.
"I've got Izuku Midoriya's blood." Merrily, Toga reveals said vial of ruby red.
"Good work Shigi will be pleased." Smirking, Orochi's hues flare ruby red grinning giddily, a childlike wonderment to his hues, a glint gleaming glistening as said boy's fierce feral fangs protrude out of his lips before following after her, heading back to base with a job well done.
Silently, Sayako sits on the floor of her dorm room, her legs clutched tightly to her chest, her arms wrap around her legs as she bows her head. She sniffles, gritting her teeth together, trying to hold back the tears threatening to fall.
"Sayako are you hungry?" Gently, Mezo questions gently knocking on the door but…
"Probably moping about failing." Smugly, Mineta remarks placing his hands behind his head smirking smugly.
"I still can't believe Sayako failed." Mystified, Mina confesses still stunned.
"Can't you? With that arm of hers…" Sayako seethes slamming her eyes shut before slamming her face into her bed pillow fuming, the tears freely falling moistening the material below as she sniffles shakily. Soon the sound of footsteps fade as Sayako leans back against the door of her dorm, closing her eyes trying to compose herself until next she knew, the door suddenly jerked open taking her aback as she came crashing down, her hues widening when her glassy green look up into a pair of glaring glowering scarlet.
"You me now." Katsuki grabs her by the collar as next she knew; she was dragged out of the room and shudders from the crisp cold wind brushing against her. She stood outside the dorm, the light of the lamp post towering above them both being the thing to snap her out of her thoughts.
"No." Swiftly, she turns on her heel to leave but…
"Yes." Sharply, he grabs her by the collar pulling her to sit on the bench.
"Do you know what time it is?" Irritated, she snaps sharply scowling.
"…You failed." Firmly, Katsuki snaps scowling down at her making her flinch.
"Well that's a conversation starter." Snippily, Sayako sneers scowling glaring to the side.
"Shut up and listen. We both failed that exam." Katsuki reminds her, practically putting salt in the wound.
Yes well that dickhead Aizawa shouldn't have even had me join, I mean I barely got a handle of my arm and he just thinks I can pass a test that has a fifty percent chance of passing." Bitterly, Sayako points out fury flowing through her crossing her arms over her chest.
"Purple passed." Katsuki grumbles glaring to the side.
"Oh please I still have no clue how that fuckwad passed his quirk is nothing it's just some stupid ball that's it." Irritated, Sayako huffs.
"He still passed." Pointedly, Katsuki exclaims.
"…Trying to rub salt in the wound or something?" Scowling, Sayako demands.
"You're pathetic." Katsuki huffs.
"And you're an asshole you lost to asswipe!" Angry, Sayako snarls.
"I know! But at least I ain't moping about it like some brat." Katsuki exclaims.
"Excuse fucking you!? Did you lose an arm!?" Angrily, she demands from him.
"Oh shut the fuck up about your arm!" Annoyed, Katsuki rolls his eyes at her.
"Excuse you!?" Sayako scowls at him.
"You heard me! You lost your arm yes it's shitty but what happened, happen what matters is winning, is us catching up to those dickwads for our loss, for letting those villain fuckwads take us! We're falling behind and I refuse to fall behind I fucking refuse! We were the best of the best, we were at the top until now…" Katsuki begins ranting as Sayako sniffles slightly, brow furrowing from the sad fact of the matter.
"Speak for yourself…" Sayako huffs.
"Ever since you lost that arm you've become nothing but a bitch." Katsuki exclaims.
"I'd like to see you lose an arm…" Sayako glares to the side.
"Would you shut the fuck up about losing your arm!?" Katsuki exclaims.
"Excuse you!?" She exclaims enraged.
"I've seen the shit that's been thrown your way dumbass! You're obsessed over it! You failed today because of your own flaws not just with the arm but yourself. You have people wating to help you but you won't let them. What happened to the dumbass string girl who never gave up? Who I've had to put up with since day one. The one who when she failed her writing exam." Katsuki explains to her.
"Wait…wait how did you…?" Softly, Sayako whispers.
"I've seen your marks dumbass you can hide it all you want the whole class knows your shit at everything else but English." Katsuki grumbles glaring to the side making her hues twitch.
"Oh fuck you…" Sayako sneers rolling her eyes exasperated.
"No fuck you! You're letting the league win! You're letting them get to you, you're letting them beat you! You have no clue how hard U.A fucking worked to make that arm." Angrily, Katsuki snaps scowling seething.
"And you know?" Sayako sneers scowling seething.
"I know they had to call my ass of a sister to make that arm of yours!" Katsuki scowls, crossing his arms over his chest.
"…What?" Sayako furrows her brow befuddled.
"My sister went through a lot of shit to get that arm to you, the shit she went through and the way you're treating it pisses me off! The fact you think you can't be a hero cause of your arm pisses me off you have even lost all of it! My sister lost her whole fucking arm thanks to villains, thanks to me but she's still breathing, she's still fighting, she's still standing and what are you doing? Bitching about your problem and not doing jack about it. You lost a portion of your arm, the hand she practically lost her entire arm." Katsuki points out frustration flowing through him.
"Up to the elbow at the least." Snippily, Sayako grumbles glaring to the side.
"That isn't my fucking point my point is that you can't whine, you can't moan, you can't keep blaming your fucking arm for your own fucking failures! You got to bite the bullet swallow your pride ad actually do something for a change instead of bitching about shit!" Shouting, Katsuki yells, roars raising his voice at her.
"…" Silently, she curls in on herself, her knees close curled to her chest.
"Do you know how fucking annoying it is hearing you blame your arm for all of your shitty problems!?" Fed up, Katsuki snaps snarls seethes at her making her flinch from his words.
"Katsuki…" Sayako begins brow furrowing, trying to find some word some sense of a counter but nothing comes to her as she bows her head. He was right…she hated it but he was, she couldn't…she couldn't keep doing this anymore. She couldn't keep blaming her arm it would get her nowhere she knew that. She had to work hard, she would work hard, she needed to get better, be better…
"This…this was your first loss. Don't let this loss keep you from your potential from those that want to fucking help you dumbass…you know it only hurts them more when they come back. You know you ca be a hero if you try…I know you ca just as you know you can…" Katsuki tells her before turning his back storming off his stormy scarlet turning away from her heading off, storming off to who knows where leaving the girl alone as where as soon as he leaves. A soft sob escapes her lips as the tears freely fall from the girl finally letting it out, the harsh home truths finally getting to her…
"House arrest!?" Surprised, the whole of Class 1A gawk gaping at the reveal staring stunned at both Midoriya and Katsuki furrowing their brow focusing on their cleaning duties.
"How idiotic!" Tenya huffs furrowing his brow.
"Are they that dumb!?" Sero scowls.
"Unbelievable…" Momo agrees.
"Did they make up afterwards?" Curious, Tooru ponders out loud.
"Well Midoriya isn't six feet under so probably." Lazily, Sayako shrugs.
"Well…I-I wouldn't ut it that way mm it's had to put into words." Meekly, Midoriya smiles shyly but…
"Sounds like Katsuki." Smirking, Sayako crosses her arms over her chest cutting him off.
"The fuck is that meant to mean!?" Mad, Katsuki snaps sharply turning on his heel seething snarling.
"You know what I mean dumbass." Sayako scowls, barking back at him.
"I ain't the only one who failed dumbass." Katsuki roars back.
"You failed too dumbass!" Sayako snaps back.
"Dumbass!" Katsuki roars slamming his temple against her own, sparks spewing between both hotheads.
"Dumbass!" Sayako seethes grinding her teeth together fury flowing through her. The two oblivious to the furrowed frown of a certain raven-haired man done with both students.
"Enough! You two are lucky to have gotten off with house arrest I suppose that means we'll be attending the opening ceremony without them." Tiredly, Aizawa snaps scowling swiftly trapping the two in his binding cloth.
"Bakugo what are you going to do about the provisional licence supplementary lessons?" Kirishima questions him.
"We could give him notes or something." Shyly, Denki offers.
"Shut up it's none of your businesses." Katsuki yells at his friends as Sayako frees herself from the binding cloth, Katsuki on the other hand struggles within the binds.
"Well have fun cleaning." Cheerily, Sayako smirks smugly winking at the two, easily freeing herself having grown well acquainted with the scarf.
"DAMN IT! Katsuki yells his voice roaring bouncing off the dorm walls while Sayako and the rest of her class leave.
"We still up for studying tonight?" Todoroki questions having been the one to drag Sayako out of the dorm, trying to stop said girl from adding fuel to the fire. He knew how she was when it came to the angry boy.
"Yeah. Think we could try one of my incense?" Sayako sighs she knew how hard it was to focus at least the intense August gave her had helped her.
"I didn't know you had one." Shoto says surprised.
"Eh my therapy recommended it something for my behaviour." Aloofly, she shrugs her shoulders glancing to the side. She didn't trust it at first but during her therapy sessions, she had no clue he had ignited the incense until she told him, it had helped her focus.
"We could try it." Shoto shrugs not minding the idea.
"Thanks…" Thankful, she smiles shyly at Shoto.
"I heard the news Class A." Mockingly, Monoma calls out making her grimace, feeling her heart drop, dread flowing through her veins.
"No…." Sayako groans craning her neck to the side scowling.
"Three people you guys had three people fail the provisional licence exam!?" Monoma cackles as Sayako squirms slightly scowling feeling her body tense up ignoring the aching searing sensation in her constricted chest.
"He really does have screws lose." Kirishima mutters furrowing his brow by the blonde before them.
"Well then was it only you who failed this time?" Denki scowls at him.
"HAHAHAHA!" Heckling, he hollers proudly.
"Then who was it?" Desperate, Kirishima demands fuming.
"Every one of us passed we've pulled ahead Class A." Merrily, Monoma reveals.
"Sorry everybody." Kendo smirks smugly swiftly hitting Monoma at the back o the head.
"It's oly their side trying so hard to compete with us don't let it get to you guys." Momo tries to assure her class but…
"It's not getting to me." Defensively, Shoto states the fact furrowing his brow.
"Oh but you seem rather quiet eh Sayako?" Smugly, Monoma calls out to the girl flinching from the sudden spotlight shining down upon her.
"…Monoma why do you keep doing this?" Tiredly, Sayako sighs turning on her heel to face him exhaustion etched into her fatigued facial features too tired to deal with the blonde beofre her.
"Hm?" Monoma raises a brow befuddled by the sheer doneness in her tired tone.
"Is pulling ahead really that important to you? It's pretty pitiful, sad even that all you can focus your efforts on is being better than us is that really the attitude a hero should have? Is your life truly so boring, so pitiful, so sad even that you have this deranged obsession of one upping us constantly?" Sighing, Sayako points out as Monoma's hues dilate from her words, his facial features paling from her tired tone.
"…I…I…" Meekly, Monoma begins but soon stutters shyly squirming having no real clue how to deal with this new Sayako of sorts.
"I…I think you broke him." Amazed, Kendo stares stunned at the malfunctioning Monoma, sparks spewing out of the stuttering stammering mess but Sayako simply stares, not even feel an inch of pride at what she had accomplished.
"Well…according too my sources, our teacher during our second semester we'll have a class together lookin forward to it." Kendo cheerily winks.
"Really? I can't wait then!" Tooru beams brightly.
"Whoa they have a foreigner!" Denki gasps gushing over the blonde with horns.
"And I can't wait to beat the shit out of them!" The blonde cheers causing Momona to burst into a fit of snickers.
"Stop teaching her how to say weird things!" Kendo snaps scowling at the snickering Monoma oblivious to the group approaching…
"Did I say something wrong?" Innocently, the blonde pony girl ponders making Sayako sigh as she steps forward, explaining the situation to the poor girl gawking gaping at the mis translation on her end not even batting an eye to the snickering Momona and horrified Kirishima and Denki.
"Hey isn't that…?" The brown haired girl furrows her brow eyeing the prosthetic shoved into the pocket of her trouser pocket.
"The Kamino girl yeah I heard she failed her exam." One of the men from the same class remarks.
"I'm surprised she's still here." Snippily, the girl crosses her arms over her chest cross.
"To think someone like her got into the hero course but we couldn't pisses me off." Another one from general studies snippily remarks.
"I bet you it's favoritism." Another guy from it exclaims.
"Yeah she's the daughter of best Jeanist after all!" Annoyed, another of the general studies exclaims.
"That must tick you off right Shinso?" Smirking, the brute turns to the lilac haired boy simply staring at the blonde trying to assure the panicked pony girl.
"Hey you guys are holding up the back here." Hollering, the voice calls out making the others arch a brow turning towards the group approaching.
"Crap…" Sayako mutters under her breath tensing up as her greens meet a pair of stern lilac.
"My apologies okay everyone let's stop with the private talk we're causing trouble for the other people!" Tenya tells his classmates.
"I honestly can't believe how uncool you guys are…" Aloofly, Shinso huffs not even batting an eye at them.
"Shinso…" Tokoyami trials off his scarlet staring at the tall towering figure of Shinso.
"The guy who fought Midoriya at the sports festival!" Kirishima recalls.
"You sure that's the same guy looks like he's bulked up a bit since then." Denki takes note of as Sayako shyly glances over at his arms as he approaches unaware of her fingertips curling into her palm.
"Hey Sayako isn't he…" Innocently, Shoto begins but…
"Shoto come on." Swiftly, she snatches his wrist making his hues widen when seeing said girl turn on her heel.
"Right…" Shoto whispers brow furrowing following after her, confusion clear on his furrowed features. But he complies, following after her heading outside for the assembly as Shinso scowls at the two fleeing figures, his fingertips forming into a pair of fists frowning watching on as the two leave.
"Well then starting today we'll be resuming our normal classroom activities I know you've all been through a lot but now is the time to renew yourselves to help you reach your full potential despite today's activities being limited to a classroom lecture. This semester we'll have even tougher training than before…like to share Ashido?" Aizawa tells his class after the assembly as he explains to his students only to note the girl squirming in her seat.
"EEEK!" Said girl squeaks after being caught gossiping to Tsuyu.
"Excuse me sensei if I may? I was wondering if you could please tell us more about the hero internships mentioned in the opening ceremony." Politely, Asui asks.
"Oh yeah the principal mentioned something like that." Sero remarks.
"I'm interested as well." Tokoyami agrees.
"It seems to be something that most of the upperclassmen are involved in too." Momo takes note of.
"I was planning to tell you some other time but now that I think about it. I suppose it's more logical for me to tell you sooner than later. Put simply they're hero activities done off campus think of it like a more formalised version of the filed training you did with the pros before." Aizawa confesses placing his hand on the side of his face.
"Wow I didn't know there was a system like that. What was the point of all the struggles we went through for the sports festival then!?" Ochako suddenly stands up from her seat.
"That's right if we have these internships anyway then it wouldn't matter if we were getting scouted." Tenya points out.
"Hey calm down Uraraka didn't say that…" Worriedly, Sato exclaims to the panicked girl.
"The hero internships are an opportunity to make use of the connections you made at the festival they're not linked to classes at all but rather managed at the discretion of the students themselves. That being the case if you made such no such connections at the festival I imagine it'd be very difficult to anticipate in such activities. In the past each office would conduct their own recruiting efforts but it often caused a lot of trouble because they would fight over U.A students and that's why it is the way it is now. If that dresses everything. Sit down." Aizawa elaborates as he commands Ochako.
"I-I'm sorry I jumped to conclusions." Apologetic, Ochaco sits down.
"Because of your licenses you are eligible to participate in formal longer term activities in the past there weren't very many examples of first year students with licence but with the rise of villains. We are deliberating thinking about your participation. Also you will be expected to write about your experiences but I'll explain more at a later date for now I've got some matters to tend to. All right sorry for keeping you waiting…Mic." Tiredly, Aizawa exclaims as Sayako flinches from it, keeping her head down, gritting grinding her teeth down feeling the faint fury flow through her veins but brushes it aside as the door swiftly slides open to a familiar boisterous blonde.
"English! It's my time now my long-awaited return to the stage! Let's push ourselves forward today turn it up yeah!" Merrily, Mic exclaims as Sayako simply scowls down at her book, focusing on the lesson at hand having no energy to deal with the teacher before her.
"Yo about Mic's class today…" Kirishima calls out as the rest of the class return to their dorms, each and every one of them exhausted except for Sayako silently reading the book in her hand, her fingertip tapping against the cover of her book.
"You as lost as I was?" Kirishima asks.
"You too!? I've never learned that grammar before!" Sato sighs exhaustion etched into his tired tone.
"Ah yeah that man it took me by surprise too." Mina agrees stretching moping as Denki slumps against the sofa.
"Was it really that difficult?" Sighing, Sayako slumps her shoulders sitting down on the sofa opposite the exhausted pair, picking up a boy, looking over it unfazed.
"This coming from the star pupil!" Pained, Denki accuses anguished.
"Hey not my faults I spent my holidays in America." Aloofly, Sayako shrugs them off.
"Lucky…" Pouting, Mina whines puffing up her cheeks.
"HELP US!" Kirishima begs bowing his head to her making Sayako scowl down at the red head before sighing softly.
"Can't got my own shit to deal with." Sayako stands from her seat turning to her room hoping to focus on her own problem but…
"You mean your fail-ARGHHH!" Smugly, Mineta begins but is swiftly silenced by both Katsuki and Sayako swiftly kicking the grape into the window, small cracks spewing out of the back of the terrified Mineta shaking, quivering, quaking from both the green glare and scarlet scowl sent his way.
"Oops." Casually, Sayako slumps her shoulders string at the shaking, scared Mineta sprawled over the window terrified of the green glare pinning him to the wall before leaving heading to her room.
"Hey about the internship stuff none of us made any connections so does that mean we can't do it?" Jiro ponders.
"I really want to though." Tooru exclaims.
"Can't you just go back to the place where you did your field training? Maybe they'll take you back? What's the deal with the dust Bakugo?" Ojiro ponders beofre taking note of the fuming volcano about to erupt.
"After one just day I feel so out of the loop! That's what you're thinking right?" Tauntingly, Tenya poses to Midoriya.
"Hey Ida what's this internship stuff?" Midoriya asks him but…
"I'm mad at you right now I was also expressly forbidding from revealing any info from class to you. I'm sorry but you two are getting your just deserts you hear me Bakugo?" Sternly, Tenya places his hands on his hips berating both boys.
"Shut the hell up you four eyes prick! That was Deku piss of asshole you dumbass do you not know how to clean!?" Angrily, Bakugo bellows before turning his fury towards Midoriya.
"S-S-Sorry I'm going to go take out this trash from everyone's rooms." Meekly, Midoriya bows his head yellow bag in hand, he leaves.
"Trash right? The food trays are okay to go in the compatible trash you know?" Surprised, Midoriya jolts up at the voice as he turns to dispose of the rubbish before perking up at the blonde
"Uuuh okay…" Midoriya stammers staring stunned at the face in the wall smiling at him before said face vanishes leaving a mystified Midoriya alone.
"What was that just now?" Midoriya mutters to himself, brow furrowing as he returns inside perking up at the blonde exiting her room, incense spewing out of the door as she sighs shakily pinching the bridge of her nose exhaustion etched into her fatigued facial features.
"Oh Midoriya you…you okay?" Sayako raises a brow noting the slightly shaken-looking Midoriya.
"Face…in the wall." Shaken, Midoriya whispers his features as pale as a ghost.
"Oh that was Mirio." Sayako catches on. Sayako wears a loose green and white stripped long sleeves jumper with a pale baggy blue cardigan draped over her form wearing a pair of distressed denim jeans and slippers. Her blonde locks are pinned up in a small mini bun with stray strands of blonde peeking out.
"Miri-who? Actually, Sayako do you think you could…?" Hopeful, Midoriya begins but…
"Sayako." Shoto approaches Sayako in his casual clothes.
"Oh Shoto." Smiling, Sayako turns to him.
"You wanted to compare notes from the supplementary lesson." Shoto points out showing said notes in his hand.
"Oh right sorry Midoriya I'll see ya." Smiling, Sayako turns her back to him, Shoto following after her as they head inside or well Shoto does, Sayako is about to when…
"Why did you do it?" Surprised, Sayako raises a brow by Todoroki's question as the two sit side by side, focusing on the studying at hand.
"Do what…?" Sayako raises a brow befuddled.
"Change your hair back…to his hair colour." Todoroki gestures to his hair.
"Cause…that's who I am. I spent so long denying he was my father, I was told to eve but my quirk, my mannerism, my beliefs even if I continue to deny it, he is in me, a part of me is in him just as within me is a bit of him just like a little bit of your old man is with you whether you want to admit it or not trust me on this denying it won't do you any favours…" Frowning, Sayako twirls a stray strand of blonde by her side, staring at it pinching the singular strand before returning to their studying that is until Todoroki leaves, heading back to his room after their study session.
"So…tired. I swear Todoroki's trying to kill me…eh?" Exhausted, Sayako sighs grumbling under her breath brow furrowing as she steps back, leaning her back against the newly shut door, Shoto heading back to his room leaving Sayako alone to rest.
"HELLO!" Surprised, she gasps at the sudden perky voice turning towards a familiar blonde before her.
"Mirio for fuck sake!" Scowling, she snaps sharply at him, hand on her chest huffing only then to gasp her hands darting down to her eyes when noting the clothes hitting the ground below.
"What? Uh come on don't hide your face." Mischievously, Mirio winks oblivious to his state.
"PUT SOME CLOTHES ON FIRST DUMBASS!" Sharply, Sayako snaps scowling at Mirio, a blistering blush upon her crimson cheeks.
"H-Uh? O-Oh! Sorry! Heh…" Meekly, Mirio smiles shyly, crouching down putting the clothes back on.
"It is safe?" Sayako asks as she sits crouched down in the corner, hiding her face feeling the blush burn her hands almost.
"It's safe." Mirio confirms.
"Urgh what do you want?" Sighing, Sayako sighs relieved when seeing said boy back to normal before plopping herself down on the bed.
"Wanted to ask if you were excited about your internship with Sir." Smiling, Mirio exclaims.
"…Mirio." Tiredly, Sayako sighs slumping her shoulders scolwing, feeling a wave of sorrow wash over her, feeling the nagging ache in her constricted chest.
"Hm?" Humming, Mirio arches a brow.
"I…I didn't pass." Pained, Sayako sighs sadly feeling a wave of shame wash over her, her brow furrowing from it all.
"Wait…what?" Mirio arches a brow taken aback astonished even.
"I didn't pass. I'm taking supplementary lessons." Ashamed, Sayako sighs sadly bowing her head.
"Oh…I'm…I'm sorry. Sir was expecting to…" Apologetic, Mirio begins but…
"Welp he's going to be disappointed." Curtly, Sayako snippily huffs.
"Sayako…" Mirio reaches out to her but…
"Look let him find someone else or something I got my own shit to focus on." Sayako scowls crossing her arms over her chest.
"…Right…do you want to talk about it?" Mirio offers taking a seat on the ground.
"Not really." Aloofly, Sayako sighs.
"…Right. Sorry again." Mirio repeats not quite sure what to say.
"It's fine Mirio it's fine." Feebly, she smiles softly watching him leave, leaving her to head to bed.
"I APOLOGISE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE I CAUSED!" Loudly, Midoriya yells taking Sayako aback as she finds Midoriya prepared and ready to return to class.
"Well now that Midoriya has returned let's formally talk about the internships come inside. Let's hear first-hand from those with personal experience how these internships are different from field training. They have made time in their busy schedules to come and talk to you all so please listen to what they have to say these three third years rank among the top of all U.A students. They're known as…the big three." Aizawa announces as everyone sits down just as the door slides open to…
"Oh no…" Sayako slumps sinking in her seat dread washing over her as the three enter.
"Oh yes…" Aizawa smirks slightly amused by the groaning mess that is Sayako dreading the three entering in particular a certain blonde beady blue-eyed boy.
"They are U.A top students the big three! Alright could you all give us a brief self-introduction then starting with you Amajiki." Aizawa calls out gesturing to the three before him, starting with the tall young man with rather pale skin. His ears are longer than most, their tips pointy and somewhat elf-like. He has messy, indigo hair, which sticks out behind his head, and thin, tired-looking eyes.
"Oh elf boy…" Sayako's hues widen when recognizing the slouched state of the boy suddenly glaring at them, making the others flinch from the sheer intensity all but Sayako simply staring back unfazed by such intensity.
"It's no good Mirio Hadou…no matter how hard I try to think of all of them as potatoes everything except their heads just keeps its human form and besides their heads I can only see them as humans what should I do…the word…they won' come out. My mind's completely blank…it's so painful…! I wanna go home." Miserably, elf boy bows his head hitting the wall whimpering weakly shaking, quivering, quaking from the sheer sight of the younger years.
"This guy…is at the top of U.A's hero class?" Confused, Kirishima furrows his brow by the thought of such a lanky guy being at the top.
"Hey Amajiki listen to this apparently that's call being a chicken hearted hey even thought you're a human weird right?" Giggling, the fair-skinned girl of average height with wide, curious eyes exclaims.
"I think you mean it's called being a chicken." Curtly, Sayako scowls at the girl noting her upper eyelashes are long and thick, and her irises are a royal blue. Her hair is periwinkle, and it reaches all the way down to her knees, twisting around itself at her waist and curving inwards around her legs. She has side-swept bangs, tucked behind her ears on the right and hanging just over her eyes on the left, and two short clumps of hair on either side of her face, curved towards her face on the right and behind it, under her ear, on the left.
"Hey, hey you're that girl that was kidnapped what was it like losing your arm? Was it painful? Hey your hair isn't brown anymore did you dye it? tell me! Tell me!" Eagerly, the girl leans over Sayako's desk startling said girl leaning back from the sheer closeness of the girl, her nose teasingly touching her own.
"Uh…" Sayako's greens glance to the side unsure.
"Oh this is Tamaki Amajiki the chicken and I'm Nejire Hadou we've come here today because we were asked to talk to you about the internship but hey hey by the way why're you wearing a mask? Did you catch a cold? Or is the latest fashion?" Smiling, Nejire rushes towards Mezo after pointing to said scaredy cat before changing her focus to Mezo, a part of her pondering if she was as bad as this.
"Well a long time ago I-" Mezo begins but…
"What do you think Sayako?" Smiling, Nejire turns to the girl.
"I thought he was a ninja." Sayako shrugs.
"Ooh Ninja that's cool hey you're Todoroki right? Why do you have a burn on your face like that." Nejire turns towards Shoto.
"Well that's…" Todoroki begins but…
"And you Ashido if those horns break do they grow back? Can you move 'em? Hey! What about you Mineta are those ball things on your head your hair? How do you cut it?" Smiling, Nejire cuts Todoroki off turning her focus to Mina messing with her yellow horns of sorts smiling despite Mina's squirming state.
"A natural airhead how cute." Denki smiles lovingly at Nejire.
"She's like a kindergartener." Kirishima compares.
"Um Sayako what are you..?" Mezo furrows his brow noting the grim grave look on his friend's face.
"Hide me…." Meekly, Sayako whispers begging beseeching him almost.
"Um what?" Mystified, Mezo says.
"SAYAKO! HEY! HI!" Animated, Mirio merrily calls out to Sayako groaning at the man frantically waving calling out to the girl clearly trying to ignore the beaming blonde.
"Urgh…" Sayako groans hiding her face in her hands.
"Wait so this is the guy who gave you the cruddy advise on the exam a while back?" Jiro recalls.
"Yep." Bitterly, Sayako scowls at the miserable memory.
"Aw come on you never let me finished." Frowning, Mirio sighs furrowing his brow at her.
"You had one job Mirio!" Sharply, Sayako snaps at him.
"So you two know each other?" Denki points between both Sayako and Mirio.
"Sayako did her work study with the guy I do my internship with." Mirio tells them.
"No matter who I look at all of you have things that pique my interest ho strange! Asui are you a tree frog? You're not a toad right? Hey hey can your whole body support your tail Ojiro? Hey answer me I'm super curious." Nejire ponders out loud staring at Asui.
"Please do not worry Eraserhead I'm the key performer here today after all the journey ahead!?" Mirio smiles shyly at Aizawa noting his raw red glare, glowering at Nejire's hopping habit.
"…Wha…what are you doing Mirio?" Sayako scowls, her hues narrowing noting the glint gleaming in his hues.
"Aw come on Sayako back me up here at the least that's where you all say will be full of difficulties!" Mirio whines at the scowling Sayako.
"These guys are all weirdos huh? Considering the big three it's kinda…" Denki leans in his seat scowling at the three.
"They're personalities certainly don't evoke that." Jiro agrees twirling her earlobe jack dangling down from her.
"Well I can see from all your faces that you've got no clue what's goin on. The explanation of the internships which are not even a requirement has been left to these third-year students who just all appeared all of a sudden. I get it. It doesn't make sense right? You acquired your provisional licence as first years right? This year's first years are really energetic aren't they? It seems like my intro fell flat here so…" Mirio cheers coyly but soon falters from the still silence he soon meets as he poses but…
"Mirio?" Mystified, Nejire raises a brow at him.
"How would you all like to team up and fight me?" Mirio challenges the class.
"No." Swiftly, Sayako shuts down the idea.
"I can't hear you." Mirio dismisses her cupping his ear but…
"NO." Sternly, Sayako snaps scowling at him.
"Come on it would make the most sense for them to witness and feel our own experience with our bodies wouldn't you ay wouldn't you say Eraserhead?" Regardless, Mirio brushes her off as he turns to reason to Aizawa.
"Do as you like." Aloofly, Aizawa brushes him off dismissing his class who go get ready, heading to the gym ready to fight Mirio.
"Um…are you serious?" Sero furrows his brow as all of class A stand before Mirio, each in their gym gear while Mirio stands before the whole class.
"Oh I'm dead serious." Smiling, Mirio confirms.
"Mirio you shouldn't do this….give them a break. It would be more than enough for you to just formally tell them that it'll be bale for you to be in this sort of condition no matter what you must make it so these kids aren't able to get back on their feet anymore. It's not as if they've all been completely full to capacity in trying to improve themselves after all." Tamaki sighs slamming his head into the wall.
"Ah hey listen to this! Did'ja know? A while back there was a kid who got so frustrated he completely gave up on becoming a hero ad caused all sorts of problems did'ja know? That Togata he really had it rough so you really gotta think things through properly or it will be hard on you! Really hard okay?" Smiling, Nejire continues playing with Mina's horns as she gossips.
"Please don't do that!" Mina asks politely.
"Wait…just a moment although we have may have a handicap we've got pros fighting on our side as well." Tokoyami takes note of.
"And we've got experience fighting villains too." Kirishima smirks smugly.
"And you think he hasn't?" Sayako sighs slumped against the wall.
"Aw thanks for the compliment Say." Smiling, Miro calls out to her.
"Piss off!" Blushing, said girl glares, sharply shouting at the boy only earning a small coy chuckle from the merry Mirio in return.
"Just feel free to come at me from wherever and where you want so who's first?" Mirio smiles stretching as he says it.
"I'll go-" Kirishima begins but…
"I…would like to go." Midoriya steps forward.
"Now that's a surprise Midoriya." Kirishima exclaims surprised.
"The problem child? That's what I'm talking about as I thought you're full of energy!" Mirio beams brightly.
"Our troops are gonna lay siege to you all at once!" Sato roars charring at him.
"Alright senpai in that case…we humbly ask for your guidance!" Kirishima proclaims proudly as all of class A charge at the blonde but…
"AHHH!" Jiro screeches as suddenly…
"Mirio clothes!" Alarmed, Sayako shouts at the moron his beady blues widening when hearing her voice.
"Ah thanks Sayako sorry about that it's a bit difficult sometimes with the adjustments and all that…straight to the face huh?" Smiling, Mirio salutes said girl just as Midoriya tries to use said opening only then for his kick to phase through him alongside the others attacks.
"He's gone!" Midoriya's hues expand when seeing said male sink to the ground.
"I suppose I should start with the long range ones." Togata unfazed leaps up clothes long gone as he leaps up behind Jiro.
"He teleported! AHHH!" Jiro screams startled as she is swiftly taken down.
"Those guys had no chance." Sayako sighs shaking her head at the others complaining about Mirio's broken quirk,
"Oh yeah." Shoto stands by her side arching a brow.
"That guy…is the closest to becoming number one." Aizawa adds as Sayako nods her head.
"In an instant he took down half of them the man closest to number one." Shoto whispers in awe almost.
"Yep." Sayako confirms nodding her head.
"You're not going to join in? You want to be number one right?" Aizawa asks turning to the two.
"I haven't obtained a licence yet." Todoroki answers.
"And you Sayako?" Aizawa questions the girl.
"Same as Todo I mean I never said I wanted to be number one besides I know my strengths and weaknesses I ain't fighting a losing battle unless there was something at stake." Sayako looks over at her nails.
"There's got to be a trick to it…!" Midoriya tuts under his breath brow furrowing.
"Midoriya!" Tenya calls out only then to be swiftly punched by Togata swiftly finishing off the rest.
"Geez Mirio you could have given them a chance." Coyly, Sayako snickers smirking staring down at her defeated classmates.
"Whew just managed to keep the jewels under wraps my apologies for all that ladies. And so…that's the gist of it." Mirio concludes as Sayako tosses his trousers over as Mirio smiles shyly at said girl grunting, adjusted to the boisterous blonde winking at her saluting her slightly.
"Without understanding how all of us only suffered punches to the gut. Was my quirk strong?" Smirking, Mirio asks.
"It's unfair how am I supposed to feel? Not only phasing but teleportation are you one of those hybrids like Todoroki and Sayako!?" Mad, Mirio whines.
"Too strong!" Tooru joins in equally as annoyed.
"It's only strong cause he worked hard to master it." Sayako sighs.
"Aw Sayako." Smiling, Mirio wraps his arms around the girl.
"Stop making it weird stop hugging me!" Blushing, said girl glares glowering at the beaming blonde laughing amused at her heated reaction.
"Mind telling us?" Jiro furrows her brow as the rest of the class stare at the strange dynamic not quite sure what to make of it, Sayako was normally the one in control of the conversation or something, to see her be at her wits end from the blonde before them…
"Oh right permeation well…" Mirio drops said girl turning to her classmates.
"He can move through physical objects up and down." Sayako deadpans.
"Sayako you ruined it." Whining, Mirio pouts at the deadpanned girl.
"You think I give a shit?" Simply, she arches a brow only making Mirio chuckle.
"Oh well… yeah that's the gist I can fall into the ground and if I release my quirk while falling something mysterious happens. It's as if the mass can't overlap on top of each other so I get catapulted out in other words I get shot out of the ground in an instant that's how my teleportation works by adjusting the direction of my body I can control and angel where I'm shot out of." Mirio explains to the class.
"He sort of like a catapult in a way." Sayako simplifies.
"Yeah sort of I call it a videogame glitch." Mina adds.
"What a perfect way to put it!" Mirio chuckles.
"Not just being able to avoid any attack but you move where you want in an instant that really is a strong quirk." Amazed, Asui says in awe.
"Not at all it's like Sayako said it's strong because I made it strong. When I activate my quirk no oxygen can come into lunges even if I inhale it pass through me my eardrums do not hear anything my retinas catch no light everything passes through me. I become unable to feel anything the only thing I feel is the sensation of falling but because I still have mass…" Modestly, Mirio elaborates.
"He's spat out." Sayako states.
"Are you starting to understand? Let's say that I want to pass through a wall I activate my quirk except for one foot then I release it in the other foot so it can contact the ground then I focus it in the first foot and pass through. Even the simplest of movements require a set of operations." Mirio asks the class.
"If it were us we'd probably mess it up if we were in a rush." Denki says.
"On top of that if you can't feel anything anymore you might not be able to move." Mineta throw in.
"Right, you are I remember when I was on station and had this incident if it weren't for Sayako manging to use the fibre of my hair I would have been a goner." Merrily, Mirio recalls as Sayako scowls at the memory.
"Wait what?!" Class A gawk gaping at their classmate.
"The fuck you staring at!?" Angrily, she snaps scowling fidgeting from the sudden spotlight on her.
"I fell behind before I knew it every last thing had fallen away even my clothes and with this quirk if you wanna keep moving up that's the last thing you can afford to let happen that's why you need predictions it's the way to be faster than your surroundings the way to trick time predictions is the most critical skill and the thing that makes these prediction possible is experience predictions are build upon them. It took a bit of time but that's why I wanted to play this game with you. Instead of with words I want to show you my experience in these internships we are no longer treated like guests but rather we act as sidekicks for pros. And that is a very terrifying thing there have been situations where people have died. Nonetheless no matter how scary or mindful the thought may be all of it is invaluable experience that you can't get in school with the experience I gained from my internship I was able to transform my power and reach the top. And for that reason, scary or not this is an opportunity you cannot miss out on first years." Mirio confesses to the first years tapping his temple excessively before further elaborating his point.
"He even sounds like a pro!" Ojiro says stunned.
"It's true that we felt like we were being treated as gusts during our field training." Jiro places her hand behind her neck.
"They avoided making us do anything dangerous too." Denki joins in.
"I doubt…throwing your guest though a window is normal." Sayako mutters miserably under her breath.
"Well technically you threw yourself through that wall." Merrily, Mirio chuckles as the other classmates couldn't help but sweatdrop.
"…I'll give you that." Sayako sighs slumping her shoulders.
"Hah!" Laughing, Mirio cackles cheerily.
"It's time to head back." Aizawa steps up reminding the class.
"Thank you very much!" The class thank the big three before heading off as they return to their lessons.
"Looks pretty run down is this really the base?" Frowning, the red head furrows his brow by the dump of sorts. The man has ruby red hair tied into a low ponytail with ruby red hues glowering at the dump, the whites of his eyes pitch black, a petite pair of feral fangs peering out of his lips. He wears a brown trench coat with a ruby red scarf coiled around his throat matching the ruby red vest he wears above his grey turtleneck, wearing a pair of black trousers and combat boots.
"Ah no way I'm taking you to the headquarters right off the bat. This is more of an interview site." Smiling, Twice tells the two following Twice towards the building.
"Interesting don't suppose we'll get any compilatory treats from it?" Amused, the redhead jokes lightly.
"As if…!" Twice shakes his head.
"Indeed as if you lot could even afford it." Smirking, Ryoma remarks amused almost at the dump before him.
"What's that meant to mean?" Mad, Twice snaps scowling at him, his tone turning dark drawing out a blade but…
"Ryoma…don't think I won't take off that disgusting tongue of yours." Softly, the gloved hand raised swiftly stops said fight from playing out as the man with the plague doctor mask of sorts intervenes.
"Fine, fine I'll be good." Giddily, Ryoma raises his hands up feigning innocence.
"Apologies for my partner he had a habit of running his tongue too much." The plague doctor of sorts tells Twice.
"It's all cool dog!" Said knife is lowered as both Ryoma and the plagued masked man share a look just as they get closer to the place.
"Excuse me it's rather dusty in here. I think I might get sick." Politely, the man exclaims repulsed.
"No worries the people inside are especially sick." Smiling, Twice tries to assure the masked man.
"A good one the league of villains what a joke…" Snickering, Ryoma chortles coyly.
"Hey guys I'm back and I brought that dude. He said he wanted to talk to you so here we are. He's quiet but pretty cool, the other one likes talking your ear off. They seem like real creeps." Twice says out loud as the plague doctor masked man coughs slightly from the dust hanging heavily in the air.
"Well now you brought us a pretty big catch eh Twice…" Teasingly, Shigaraki remarks a leg over the other perched upon the tallest create oblivious to the figure draped in shadows shaking, quivering, quaking, his chipped bloodied sore, scarlet-stained nails being nibbled upon. The figure squirms slightly when his scared gold flash baby blue when seeing a certain redhead's giddy grin, exposing said fierce feral fangs to the scared serpent that is Orochi.
