Offers


She sighed, holding onto the iron pole for dear life. They had gotten onto the train no problem… but it quickly became overcrowded and she had to grip onto the pole so she wasn't squished or shoved away from Fumikage, who was also having the same problem.

"Hey, its 1-A students!" She pressed her lips together. Oh good lord have mercy… she heard giggles in the back of her head. Oh shut up Aneko, you would be thinking the same thing if you were in my place…

Probably… but right now Imma just enjoy the show!

She sighed, practically hearing the crunch of someone eating popcorn, and scooted closer to Fumikage, ignoring the people on the train by putting in her earbuds and blasting a song.

Over the past two days, she had been talking with Aneko more after she introduced herself, or, scared the crap out of Yamiyo then introduced herself. They had a bit in common, and Aneko was, surprisingly, fun to have around and talk to. She also was funny, but she could be a pain.

She rubbed the right side of her face. She was still getting used to not wearing the eyepatch all the time, and it felt…

Odd to have it in full view of others after it being concealed behind a piece of fabric for so long.

She was snapped out of her thoughts when the train jerked. She yelped as the sudden movement ripped her hand from the pole. She fell back into someone.

"Watch it!" She was shoved forward, she closed her eyes and felt her forehead hit something that wasn't the iron pole. She cracked her eyes open a bit too see the same gray fabric as the jacket she was wearing.

"So rude… she seriously could've gotten hurt, ya know!" Her eyes opened and she turned to see Mina with her arm outstretched, blocking Yamiyo's head from colliding with the iron pole.

"U-uhh I-I d-didn't know she was a UA student w-when I accidentally pushed her-"

"I suggest you stop right there. We saw what you did, as well as heard it. You had every intention of pushing her away." Fumikage stated. She sighed and turned towards them.

"Just… drop it. He won't do it again.." She turned to the man, a shadow falling over her face, "...right?" She growled. The man nodded furiously and pushed past the crowd of passengers, getting away from the UA students who looked ready to clobber him.

She re-grabbed the pole with a sigh.

"Some people have no respect these days.." Fumikage stated. Yamiyo couldn't help but nod in agreement. Mina lowered her arm and grabbed the same pole. Yamiyo chuckled and turned to the pink girl.

"Thanks for saving my skull, I definitely don't feel like getting to class with a huge bruise on my forehead." She nodded.

"It's no biggie! How are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling a lot better now, thanks to Recovery Girl." Yamiyo smiled. She turned to Fumikage.

"And because of the two days off, we were able to study a bit more. Although… I would have appreciated it if I was able to at least jog.." Fumikage shook his head sternly.

"Not a chance. Your lungs are still healing from the event during the Sports Festival." She pouted as Mina laughed.


She tapped her finger on the desk, head bobbing slightly to the beat. They had made it to class and everyone was chatting away while Yamiyo was just listening to a song she found that she fell in-love with very quickly, thankfully she paid attention to English class and was able to understand the song, mostly.

She felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see Fumikage motioning to her ears. She took her earbuds out just as Aizawa made it up to the podium.

"Ribbit. Mr. Aizawa, your bandages are gone! That's good news!" Yamiyo nodded in agreement.

"The old lady went a little overboard with her treatment." He scratched his face. She frowned at the scar under his eye.

"Anyway, we have a big class today… on Hero Informatics." She looked over at Fumikage, as usual, he didn't seem bothered at all, but everyone else looked petrified. She stifled a laugh.

"...You need codenames… time to pick your hero identities." He said simply. Almost everyone jumped out of their seats and cheered at the same time.

"This is going to be totally awesome!" Aizawa-Sensei's eyes turned red and his black hair floated around his head, shushing everyone who had jumped out of their seats and cheered.

"This is related to the pro hero draft picks that I mentioned the last time we were in class together." She breathed shakily, not excited to see who had picked her to intern with them, if anyone did at all.

"Normally students wouldn't have to worry about the draft yet until their second or third year, but your class is different. In fact, by extending offers to first years like you, pros are essentially investing in your potential. Any of their offers can be rescinded if their interest in you dies down before graduation, though." Mineta's trembling form slammed a hand onto his desk.

"Stupid selfish adults." He stated. She turned to him, an annoyed look on her face.

"Are you an idiot? Your going to be an adult in 4 or 5 years, not to mention one of those, 'stupid adults' is our homeroom teacher who risked his life to save us, so I would shut my trap if I were you." She stated firmly. He jumped at the sound of her voice. Keeping his head down, shaking even more.

Scaredy cat…

Yamiyo sighed. He can be worse…

"So.. your saying we'll still have to prove ourselves even after being recruited?" Hagakure thought aloud.

"Correct. Now.. here are the totals for those of you who got offers." He lifted a remote and turned to the chalkboard behind him, clicking a button and making a scoreboard like thing appear on it.

Todoroki: 4123

Bakugo: 3556

Tokoyami: 360

Iida: 301

Kaminari: 272

Yaoyorozu: 108

Kirishima: 68

Uraraka: 20

Sero: 14

Miyako: 1

"In past years it's been more spread out, but this year, as you can see, there's a pretty big gap this time." Yamiyo stared at her name 1… she got 1! She couldn't help but smile. After what happened during the Battles, she thought nobody would want to have her intern with them. But she got 1! Who would want me to intern with them after the Sports Festival? She turned to Fumikage.

"360! Nice job Fumikage!" She cheered with a smile plastered onto her face. He faintly smiled back.

"Even though you got 1… I'm still glad you can intern with a pro." She nodded, smiling.

"Despite these results, you all will end up interning with pros, got it? Eve those of you who didn't get any offers." She raised an eyebrow.

Good god… I feel bad for whoever has thePervert as a intern… hopefully it's not a lady, and if it is… god bless their soul.

Yamiyo snorted, her tail twitching behind her seat.

"So… were all interning?" Midoriya asked.

"Yes. You already got to experience combat with villains during the U.S.J attack." Yamiyo shuddered at the memory. She found herself flexing the limbs that were broken due to the attack. "But it will still be helpful to watch the pros at work, in the field, first hand." She leaned forward a bit as her fellow classmates spoke a few words about how codenames was going to be fun.

"These hero names will likely be temporary, but take them seriously or-"

"You'll have hell to pay later!" The door opened as Midnight cut off Aizawa. Her hands were behind her back and her mask was pushed up, as usual, she was in her hero costume, which made multiple boys blush. She rolled her eyes.

"What you pick today could be your hero name for life. So choose wisely, or you'll be stuck with something utterly indecent." She sighed and rolled her neck, cracking it.

No need to wear that type of clothing in front of hormonal teenagers!

She rubbed her eyes and nodded her head slightly, agreeing with Aneko.

"Yeah… she's got a good point. Midnight will have final approval over your hero names… it's not my forte." She sweatdropped as Aizawa put on his sleeping bag.

"Your hero names help reinforce your image and shows what kind of hero you want to be in the future. A codename tells someone exactly what you represent.. take All Might for example." She chewed her lip. Something that represents me huh ...? She took a whiteboard and marker from Kirishima and passed the last one to Sato. She stared intently at the board, trying to think of the right hero name.

What about Night Howler? She shook her head.

No… that doesn't sit right… and that's a weird flower in a movie in America that makes animals go rabid or something… I saw something about it in a post last week.. She sighed and started tapping the marker on the desk as Aneko gave out other ideas like 'Night Prowler', 'Shade', 'Shadow Wolf' and so on.

Oooh! I found one!

She scrunched up her eyebrows together in confusion. What do you mean you found one? She heard a nervous chuckle.

Aneko… She started.

Alright! Alright! I looked through your memories real quick… so what? Yamiyo felt shock run through her.

INVASION OF PRIVACY MAYBE?! She took a deep breath to calm down.

Sorry, but I got a good hero name to make up for it! Yamiyo sighed and rubbed her temples, sighing.

Alright… let's hear it…

It's.. Yamiyo smiled to herself, quickly writing it down.

"Alright students… now, who among you is ready to present?" Yamiyo's head shot up in surprise. Before she could react, Aoyoma was already walking to the front.

"Hold your breath…" She rolled her eyes, "The shining her… my name is 'I can not stop twinkling!' You can't deny my sparkle!" She rolled her eyes and turned to Fumikage, tapping his arm slightly. He turned to her and she opened her mouth and pointed her finger to it, making a gagging motion.

He shook his head and looked forward, but she could see the every so faintest smile on his beak. She smiled to herself, her plan worked. She looked back towards the front of the class to see Midnight taking his board and marker.

"It'll be better this way…take out the 'I' and turn the 'can not' to can't." She held up his board after making the adjustments and it now read, 'Can't Stop Twinkling'.

"Its stunning, mademoiselle." Yamiyo had to stop herself from facepalming. When Aoyoma sat down, Mina started hopping up to the front.

"Okie dokie let me go next!" Mina placed the board onto the podium, exposing the written writing. "My codename, Alien Queen!" Midnight began visibly freaking out.

"Hold on! Like that hideous monster with the acidic blood?! I don't think so!" Mina grabbed her whiteboard and began dragging her feet to her desk.

"Dang it.." Yamiyo's mouth widened. She allowed Can't Stop Twinkling… but not Alien Queen?! She sighed and stared at her board. Then, Tsuyu rose her hand.

"Ribbit. I think I got one, mind if I go next?"

"Come on up!" Tsu began walking to the front. Yamiyo couldn't help but smile, knowing Tsu, she would choose a codename that suited her perfectly!

"I've had this name in mind since grade school." She turned the board around to face the class. "The Rainy Season Hero: Froppy." Midnight quickly moved to her side with her hands together.

"That's delightful! It makes you sound approachable, what a great example of a name everyone would love!" Everyone's faces lit up, except for a select few, and started chanting.

"Froppy! Froppy! Froppy! Froppy!" Yamiyo stood up and pumped her hands in the air, chanting along with everyone else. When she sat down, she looked to the front, waiting for the next person, which was Kirishima.

"I've got mine too! The Sturdy Hero, my name is Red Riot!" Yamiyo smiled.

"Red Riot? Interesting.. Your paying homage to the chivalrous hero, Crimson Riot, yes?" Kirishima placed a hand to the back of his head.

"That's right, he may be kind of old school, but someday I want to be just like he was, Crimson is my idol!" Huh… guess Midoriya isn't the only fanboy.

"If your bearing the name of someone you admire, you only have that much more to live up too." Kirishima smirked and made a flexing motion with his arm in front of his chest.

"I accept the challenge!" She smiled and gave him a double thumbs up when he was walking back to his desk. He smiled back, showing his sharklike-teeth, and giving her a thumbs up back.

After that, everyone started going up one at a time to introduce their names. The next person to do so was Jiro.

"The Hearing Hero, I'm Earphone Jack!" Midnight pointed to Jiro.

"Now that's a good one!" Next was Shoji. One of his arms turned into a mouth as he leaned forward slightly, looking at his board.

"The Tentacle Hero, Tentacole."

"Oh, I like what your doing with that! A nice portmanteau." Sero came up next.

"The Taping Hero, Cellophane!"

"That's on the nose. Good work!" Midnight held a thumbs up to him, and he blushed. (To save time and to not make this become repetitive, I'm just going to list them here, sorry if you wanted me to write out this part properly, but I will make Bakugo's, Midoriya's, Yamiyo's, and a few others last a bit longer!)

Ojiro: Martial Arts Hero, Tail Man

Sato: Sweets Hero, Sugar Man

Mina: Pinky

Kaminari: Stun Gun Hero, Chargebolt

Hagakure: Stealth Hero, Invisible Girl

Yaoyorozu: Everything Hero, Creati

Todoroki: Shoto. Wait Wait Wait… Shoto? Yamiyo looked at Todoroki, confused. Why his own name?

Dunno

"Just your name? Is that it?" Midnight also looked a bit surprised and confused. He just replied with an 'uh-huh'. She shrugged it off as it continued.

Tokoyami (Fumikage): Jet-Black Hero, Tsukoyomi. Yamiyo smiled. Of course he would go with something like that..

You have no room to talk, since your Hero Name Introduction will end up being fairly similar. Yamiyo looked down and pouted.

Let me have my fun!

Mineta: Fresh Picked Hero, Grape Juice

Koda: Petting Hero, Anima Yamiyo gave Koda a thumbs up and a warm smile after he sat down. He looked flustered and tried to hide his face. So shy…

Bakugo: King Explosion Murder- Hold up! Yamiyo had to cover her mouth to keep from laughing. It seemed menacing, but it only seemed silly to her.

"I'm going to say that ones a little too violent." Midnight stated. Bakugo immediately turned to her, his palms facing upward as his whiteboard fell face forward.

"HUH, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!" He yelled.

"Why don't you be Explosion Boy?" Kirishima called out.

"YOU SHUT UP WEIRD HAIR!" Bakugo retorted. Yamiyo definitely laughed along with Kirishima and Kaminari as her tail wagged slightly.

After Bakugo calmed down enough to sit down, Uraraka nervously walked up to the front to show her hero name.

Uraraka: Uravity Midnight praised her, saying that she loved it.

"To be honest, choosing names is going faster than I thought it would!" Midnight brought her left hand to her face and angled it vertically, placing it at her eyebrows and looking over the class. "All we have left is Young Bakugo who need to rethink his.. And Iida. Oh, and of course Midoriya and Yamiyo as well." She stared at her board, she was about to go up when Iida beat her to it.

He walked up to the podium and placed his whiteboard down, Tenya written in black ink. She raised an eyebrow. Again with the first names!

"Your using your real name too?" Midnight seemed equally surprised.

Midoriya then stood up, bandaged hands gripping his board as he walked to the front. He seemed to hesitate before placing the board down, showing the word written across in messy handwriting. She gasped lightly.

"Are you sure Midoriya..?" She said aloud.

"Really Midoriya?" She heard Mineta call out.

"You sure about that?" Kaminari rose a hand.

"Yeah man, remember. That can be your name forever!" Kirishima leaned forward. Even though she couldn't remember hearing Bakugo call him that… she found out that Deku was meant as an insult, a name meaning worthless… Midoriya dropped his gaze by a fraction.

"Right… I used to hate it. But… then something changed.. I guess.. Someone taught me that it could have a different meaning. That had a huge impact about how I felt, so now I really like it!" A smile spread across his face. He looked back up towards the class.

"Deku… that has to be my codename!" She smiled from ear to ear and held up thumbs up.

Next thing she knew, Bakugo was storming up to the front, slamming his board down.

"LORD EXPLOSION MURDER!" He roared.

"That's basically the same thing." Midnight deadpanned. After a bit more arguing, he reluctantly sat down.

After he sat down. She finally stood up. As she walked to the front, she felt multiple pairs of eyes on her back.

When she got to the podium, she hugged the board to her chest, looking at her fellow classmates. She lowered her gaze a bit.

"After a bit of thinking… I decided this was the best thing to choose." She looked back up determination shining in her eyes. She turned the board and planted it firmly on the wood in front of her.

"The Nighttime Brawler Hero: Black Wolf!"


"Now that everyone's decided on their hero names, we can go back to talking about your upcoming internship. She smirked when Aizawa didn't even bother to get out of his cocoon of a sleeping bag properly. It was still around his waist.

"They will last for one week, as of who you will be working with, those of you who were on the board will choose from among your offers. The rest of you will have a different list." Midnight finished stretching her arms just as Aizawa lifted some papers.

"You have a lot to think about. There are around 40 agencies across the country who have agreed to take on people from your class. Each agency has a different specialty that its heroes focus on, keep that in mind." Aizawa said.

"Imagine you were Thirteen, you would want to choose a place that focuses on Rescue, not battling or fighting villains. Understand?" Midnight placed a hand on her hip.

"Think carefully before you decide." Aizawa warned.

"Yes Sir." Everyone called out." Yamiyo fidgeted in her seat. The bell sounding overhead.

When she received her paper. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She opened her eyes and gazed at the only agency listed on the paper. She sucked in a breath as she gazed at the agency, her eyes widening as she moved a hand to her mouth.

"Turn in your choices before the weekend." Aizawa started walking out of the classroom with his yellow sleeping bag strung over his shoulder.

"We've only got two days!?" Kirishima called out.

"Yeah, so you better start now. Your dismissed." He closed the door, Midnight walking out with him. She noticed Kirishima leaning over her desk slightly.

"Who wants you to intern with them?" She didn't respond to Kirishima.

"Yamiyo?" She looked up at him, rubbing the back of her neck while placing the paper face down.

"Sorry… just a little shocked." She wasn't lying. She was very shocked. Kirishima grinned.

"Who sent you an offer?" He grabbed her paper, but she pressed her hands onto it, holding it firmly.

"Just an everyday hero…" She stated quickly. Kirishima frowned at her. She laughed it off, quickly snatching the paper away.

"C'mon!" Kirishima whined, reaching for the paper. She leaned back, holding the paper above, and slightly behind her, laughing when he pouted and reached further, bringing her arm a bit further back.

She froze when she felt the paper leaving her fingers. She snapped her head around to see Sero waving the paper. He smirked.

"Give it back!" She snapped as she stood. He raised an eyebrow and raised the paper above his head, fully stretching out his arm. The paper was out of her reach.

"I'll give it back, if you let me touch your ears." He stated. She clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"No way." She stated firmly. He only smirked wider, shaking the paper he took hostage a bit.

"Then I guess your not getting this back." He mocked. She felt her temper flare as a vein popped in her neck.

"Pfft. Fumikage, can you believe this?" She turned to the bird-headed boy. "He thinks I can't reach it, ha!" Fumikage stood up and scooted away, aware of what was going to happen, Dark Shadow appeared from his back, rubbing his claws together.

"This is going to be good.." He chirped. Before Sero could react, Yamiyo had jumped onto the headrest of her seat and grabbed the collar of his shirt, keeping him from moving. She then proceeded to snatch the paper from his grasp. She smirked.

"What were you saying-" She froze when she looked back to Sero, his face tomato red. Their noses were a few inches from touching. She kept her deadpan expression and moved her hand around his collar to point a firm finger to his chest, looming over him.

"Do that again, and I can't assure you that you'll be unharmed- ack!" She was yanked from behind, falling off the chair and landed on her feet, the seat now laying on the ground. Her instincts took over as she lifted her leg and wrapped it around her attackers arm, twisting their hand off of her collar. She lifted her leg and turned her head to see Bakugo, shock and anger crossed his face. She was very thankful she wore thick, black leggings.

"You can let go now!" He barked. She immediately let go of his arm and bowed her head.

"I'm sorry." She apologized. There was silence for a moment.

"Tch." He grabbed her wrist and started dragging her forward, the paper falling from her hand. She yelped and felt her hand shaking. For a split second, everyone disappeared and the classroom melted into the alleyway. Instead of Bakugo, she saw Yukichi's back.

"...please let go.." She muttered. He looked back at her. He released his iron grip but kept walking, she reluctantly followed. She rubbed her wrist and turned back to her class, giving a small smile.

"I'll be back." She stepped out of the classroom. Fumikage stood and walked over to the paper crouching low and picking it up and peering at the name listed. His eyes widened as he froze. He lifted his bird-like head and stared at the door she exited.

"Who sent an offer for her?" Tsu walked up behind him along with a few others. He stood up and faced them, holding the paper for them to see. They didn't react for a moment, then they all looked shocked.

"EDGESHOT?!"


They walked through the halls until they entered one that didn't have anyone walking through. Bakugo stood in front of her, back facing her. She folded her hands in front of her.

"Do you need anything, Bakugo?" She asked calmly.

"Why do you think I'll understand?" She was taken aback by his expression.

"Pardon?" Her eyes furrowed. He turned his head a bit, allowing her to see his cheek and his crimson red eyes boring into hers.

"Why do you think I'll understand?" He repeated, a bit more sternly. She felt her stomach drop.

"I don't understand…" He spun around and shoved her into the wall, a hand firmly planted on her shoulder. His eyes were narrowed in a harsh glare.

"The battle at the Sports Festival. You started speaking in third person and saying how you didn't deserve the crap you've been through and how you don't deserve to hear it from the person you thought would understand, why do you think I'll understand?" He ordered. She didn't know how to respond…

What did Yami say?!

She revealed more than you would've wanted in her little fit.

She clenched her fists and turned her head, not meeting his gaze.

"I don't know what you heard, or what you found out, but I wasn't in the right mind and I didn't say those things." She answered, meeting his gaze once more. She felt the hand on her shoulder tighten and start to burn when he activated his quirk.

"Whatever." He stepped back and shoved his hands deep into his pockets, stalking back to class. She lowered her head.

"...after schol.

"What?" She started walking towards him. She stopped when she was next to him.

"Meet me after school and I'll answer 3 questions, no lies… no loopholes, only the truth." She continued walking. She raised her ears slightly as she tilted her chin up.

As she was walking, she slapped her hand onto her forehead as she started jogging back to the class. She had completely forgotten about the Internships and who she would be interning with.


She slid the door open, and she saw that a group of people were still there. The group being Midoriya, Uraraka, Tsu, Fumikage, Kirishima, Yaoyorozu, and Mina.

The moment they saw her, they all (except Fumikage) jumped at her and started bombarding her with questions and comments. She sweatdropped and looked at Fumikage, their gazes meeting.

'Help me.' She mouthed. He only chuckled and turned away, leaving her to the mercy of her friends.

This is a good group of kids, I'm happy you met them.

She smiled to herself.

Me too


Hey guys! The start of the internship will start next chapter, and I'm excited about it!

I'm sorry about being slow with the updates! I'm getting a lot of homework and I'm focusing on my schoolwork as well as coming up with ideas for this story and thinking about future events that will happen during the story!

Until next time! Bye!
