My Hero Academia: Yashiro The First Quirk
Ch.31- Offers In
"Alright class, soon we will have you all participate in an internship, most of you have receive offers from agencies from the festival," Dad explained and a chart came up with names and numbers. "I will be handing out your offers, and I would like your submissions by Friday after school. If you cannot find an internship, we will pick one out for you."
He began to pass out the papers, I took mine and looked it over, I had gotten 10 offers. It was strange, I guess I might need to google up these Agencies. I have never heard of half of them, I felt rather lost. Maybe I can ask Dad and Papa tonight, I scanned I saw Present Mic Agency, did Papa really offer his own agency. I guess I should be that surprised, he was Papa after all. One was called Fatgum agency, Fatgum, it was kinda a cute name.
Dad dismissed homeroom and walked out with his signature sleeping bag and papers. I turned to see Izuku he had no offers, I guess that made sense. Still I figured Uncle Toshi would have put on in or did he not have an agency. I could see he was muttering, then Iida was looking at his with a hard look. Uraraka was in awe like much of the rest of the class with offers.
"Izuku can you come here?" I asked, he shook out of his muttering and came over.
"What is it Yashiro?" he replied, I handed him a slip.
"Can you tell me about any of these heroes, I feel lost," I stated, he nodded and looked over my list.
"Fatgum, his quirk lets him absorb things with his fat." He began, I nodded as he scanned again. "Mountain Lady, she can grow in size, she's a fairly new hero. You got a few that are just agencies not named for the hero who heads them. Mic-sensei is on here too, I didn't think he could do internships, of maybe it's his head sidekick taking you on. His name is Sonic Waves, he can great shock waves in air. I know one of these agencies deals with more underground heroes."
"I swear if they both put offers…" I grumbled, he chuckled. "Thanks for the help, I will look up these tonight and hope Dad and Papa aren't pushing for me to go to their agencies."
"That can't be too bad, I mean both of your Dad's are great heroes," Izuku stated, I nodded.
"Yeah but I have a feeling they are doing this so they can make sure I have a 'safe' internship," I replied, making finger quotes over the word safe.
(Later)
I joined Izuku as he went to go plead to All Might to find him a work-study. Dad was there too, sitting back and observing. I was hoping Dad would relax a bit more, but I guess he is very protective. All Might fidget and pulled something out from his desk and showed it the Izuku. I looked over at it, it said an offer from pro-hero Gran Torino.
"My former teacher Gran Torino sent it an offer it arrived at lunch." Uncle explained, his face was pale. "I will warn you he is a strict teacher."
"He taught you, I think it would be a great experience for you Midoriya," Dad stated.
"This sounds great, I get to train under your old teacher!" Izuku rambled eager to meet Uncle's teacher.
"Yashiro, I heard you got a good deal of offers, have you thought of which one to go for?" Uncle asked I shook my head.
"No, also Dad I am not going to your or Papa's agencies." I huffed, he scoffed in defeat. "I am not letting either of you try to baby me, I can do this internship without hiding behind either of you."
"You both put in offers?" Uncle stated in shock.
"It was logical," Dad grumbled.
"I'm not a little kid, I know I am still new to this world but I can handle an internship, I need to learn from others too," I argued, he spun his chair around to look away.
"May I see who offered for you?" Uncle asked, I nodded and handed him my slip.
"Aizawa-sensei I have my request!" Iida stated and entered the room with a bow.
"Thank you, Iida, I'll take it," Dad stated and he took the paper before Iida raced off. "Let's see, that… Great…"
"What's wrong?" I asked he set down the paper as he looked up something on the computer.
"Well, I think I have an idea on what he's thinking now…" Dad muttered, I walked over and saw an article about the Hero Killer.
"That idiot!" I shouted; he was trying to get revenge!
"That is very concerning…" Uncle stated I turned to see him and Izuku joined me at Dad's desk.
"Iida…" Izuku muttered, Dad closed the tab.
"Given I have no hard evidence I cannot dispute his choice…" Dad stated, "I can maybe ask a trusted hero to keep track for Stain…"
"Yashiro you got a lot of very good offers," Uncle stated, as he began to lead me and Izuku back to his desk. "All these heroes are very reputable."
"I think I'll look them up online when I get home, might help me decide," I replied as he handed me back my paper.
"Good idea, that may help," Uncle added, he stood up and grabbed his bag.
"How about I take you both to get some Taiyaki, my treat." He stated, I nodded, he wanted to get us out and home safe.
"Never had that yet," I said, I followed him out with Izuku.
Just as I left the staff room, I saw Dad hunched over his desk, he was going to be home late. I sighed and let Uncle lead me out of the school for his mood-boosting snack. Maybe I can find out more tonight, I wonder if any of these heroes' work in Hosu…
(Shouta's POV)
I came home late, I ended up having to go meet up with heroes to discuss my thoughts. After a long time, Fat Gum offered to take the role, he was a good hero, trustworthy and knew the underground markets. He would have the easiest time hunting for the elusive Hero Killer. As I took of my shoes, I saw Hizashi walk over he was barely awake cradling a cup of tea in his pyjamas.
"I hope you ate." He said, I nodded as I took the tea.
"Met up with Fat Gum, I can't not eat around that man," I replied, he smiled.
"Yashiro's in bed, I wanted to wait up for you." He hummed, I nodded as I began to take off my scarf. "Do you have a plan?"
"Yep, Fat Gum will take on the mission, he is concerned, he has Amajiki as his work-study student. He is upset to think a UA student may get involved." I explained, he nodded as I took a sip of the tea.
"He's a good guy, he'll do great. Now I know you need some sleep; you look like hell." He joked, I smirked.
"I will, you go lay down I'll be up after I wash my face." I soothed, he leaned over and kissed my cheek.
"I'll be waiting, Shou." He hummed and I watched him tiredly walk up the stairs.
I entered the bathroom and set my tea aside as I turned on the faucet. I ran the water as I looked for a facecloth, grabbing on I dunked in into the warm water. Once it was soaked, I used to scrub at my, it was sweaty and the water felt nice. Tossing the washcloth into the laundry I drank the last of the tea before taking the mug to the sink.
My students are nothing but problem children this year… Full of potential and talented, but problem children none the less.
(Yashiro's POV)
I filled out my form, I had heard Dad coming home last night, I listen in. He said the hero that was taking on the case was Fat Gum. I smiled as I set him as my internship, this way I can help. Besides, when I looked him up, he seemed like a great hero. Also, he kinda looked like a human version of Totoro.
I set my paper on his podium as I took my seat again, a few others had placed theirs on there already. Don't worry Iida I will be able to help you; I know what you're feeling. Revenge is something I wanted for a long time. If I had stayed home, I think I would have ended up killing that man one day. I was glad that won't happen, it was worth it, not worth ruining my life. That Hero killer was not worth ruining or ending Iida's life.
"You found one to pick," Izuku stated, I nodded.
"Yeah, you didn't tell me Fat Gum looked like a human Totoro." I joked, he blinked and then chuckled.
"He kind of does, I never thought of that." He replied, I grinned at him.
Izuku would learn more from Gran Torino and begin to master his quirk, I could use my internship to keep an eye on Iida. It was the perfect plan; besides I would be with a pro-hero I could ask him to help me there. I just hope with everything he can still accept my internship.
(Shouta's POV)
I was looking over the student choices, I pulled out Yashiro's I wonder who she picked. Wait. Fat Gum, she choose Fat Gum! Why would she choose him? I mean maybe it was for his looks, I mean she does love Totoro… Wait, was she awake last night, did she hear me?
"You look unwell Aizawa-kun?" Toshinori asked, I sighed.
"Yashiro picked Fat Gum…" I stated, he looked confused a moment before his eyes widened.
"Didn't you..?" he began, I nodded. "It must be a coincidence, right?"
"I hope so, if not it's a plan of hers…" I grumbled, he looked confused. "I told Hizashi last night, it's possible she pretended to be in bed asleep and listened in."
"Why not ask her?" he said, I sighed.
"Either way she will give me the same answer, something about how he looked like a human Totoro…" I sighed; he narrowed his gaze.
"What will you do?" he said, I sighed.
"I'm not sure, I just hope he declines the request…" I said.
"Maybe I could…" he began.
"Do what, go search yourself? You only have forty minutes of your big form since USJ, plus you are far too obvious." I lectured, he sighed.
"Fair point." He stated.
"I can see if I can get more heroes on alert in Hosu, simple as that." I finished, "I need to work on the students next project."
"Which is?" he quizzed.
"I will be assigning them to do volunteer work, it's a good way to step into the ideals of hero behaviour. As heroes, we should always work to give back and help others besides fight villains." I explained, he smiled.
"That's a good plan, I can always poke around if the students need places to go." He offered, I smirked.
"I may take you up on that," I stated, time to refocus I can worry about that when I get more information.
(Yashiro's POV)
"Hey, Shinso!" I called, he stopped in his tracks as I raced over to him.
"Yashiro." He said, I leaned my arm over his shoulder, he was all healed now.
"Do you want to try some training today?" I offered; his eyes light up.
"What kind of training?" he asked, I smirked.
"Well right now I am working on my stamina and physical abilities, you need to be strong and fit to be a hero. Can't always rely on your quirk." I chimed, he nodded.
"Uh sure, what's your plan?" he asked, I smiled.
"There's a park that has a nice path I thought I could jog it and maybe try pull-ups on a tree or something," I answered, he nodded.
"Sure, what time?" he replied.
"How about in an hour, if that works, it's Ueno park, it's not the biggest but should be a good starting point." I chimed, he nodded.
"Yeah that works, I'll meet you there at the entrance near Ueno station, sound good?" he replied, I nodded and waved him off.
Uncle Toshi was gonna starting my training once I can jog Ueno with ease. Now I can spend some time with Shinso and hope we can become friends. I can work on protecting both Shinos and Iida, soon I'll save them both. Don't worry Shinso, Iida, I'm here to make sure you both make it out okay.
(Shinso's POV)
I walked toward the park entrance, I saw Yashiro there, she was in a sakura themed Sanrio tracksuit. It was cute, I hadn't pictured her being so obsessed with cute things. This is the second time I've seen her wearing something with Sanrio on it. She turned to me a waved her arm a big bright smile on her face.
"Sorry did I keep you waiting," I said as I joined her.
"I was so hyped up I got here early, I got us some water for outrun." She chimed holding up two small water bottles. "Dad said it's good to stay hydrated while training."
"Sounds good," I stated, she nodded and put them in the bag she had.
"It's a weekday so it shouldn't be that busy, let's jog all the paths and then back here." She explained, I nodded. "Don't worry if I slow down, I have weak lungs so I have to take time to build them up."
"Weak lungs?" I stated, she nodded.
"Yeah, was born with it, it's why I am so determined to boost up my stamina and physical strength. I don't want my disability to slow me down in the future." She rambled; I never thought a hero could have a disability like that. "I got this route from my mentor, he's gonna be training me up once I get my base stamina steady. He had an injury in work so now he has to adjust for his damaged body."
"Are they a teacher?" I asked, she shook her head.
"No, just a minor hero my parents know, when I expressed my desire, they asked him for help." She answered, I guess that made sense her Dad's were pro's after all. "Alright enough talk let's begin!"
