My Hero Academia: Yashiro The First Quirk

Ch.36- Work-Study Day 1

"Welcome Yashiro-chan!" FatGum greeted, I smiled as the big man greeted me with a huge smile.

"It's nice to meet you Fat Gum," I replied and bowed to him.

"Enough formalities come on in, I'll show you around!" he chimed, I smiled and nodded. "So, I have to ask, why did you pick me?"

"Well, one you look like a human Totoro." I began, he smirked, "and two I did overhear my Dad mention you were gonna help with the Hero Killer case."

"He was right." He mused, I nodded.

"Iida is my friend; I know why he won't talk to us and why he is looking to get revenge…" I explained, he looked to me. "I felt that once, his anger is all he can feel, he feels like that his brother's whole normalcy was stolen. It's like if he can take that man out, then maybe his brother will be back to normal…"

"Did you try to talk to him?" he asked, I nodded.

"I did, but he brushed me off…" I answered, he put a hand on my shoulder. "I don't know if you'll change your plans for my internship but I know I can help him. If I didn't at least try I wouldn't be able to forgive myself…"

"Eraser told me that despite his worries he thinks that you can handle this, and from what I've seen of your quirk… I believe he is right." He stated, I looked up to him. "Now let's get this tour done!"

"Yes sir." I chimed.

(Later)

I got the tour and then I met his sidekick he was my senpai at school, he was shy but really nice. Also, his quirk was super cool, it kinda reminded me of the superpower where they can become what they touch but with food. Now we were waiting for the other hero that had been called in to help with Stain. I was curious to see what their quirk was. I really should ask Izuku to show me more about heroes, I mean, to be honest, their powers were so fascinating. Maybe I will be good at strategizing with some knowledge of super-powered team-ups from media.

"Hello!" a voice chimed and I saw the door open and a blonde boy with big blue eyes walked in.

His costume reminded me more of the classic superhero design with a cape and a cute little visor for his head. Behind him, I saw a man in a suit with green and yellow hair with glasses. At the man's side was a girl who looked to be a scuba like outfit, maybe she had some water-based quirk. The man's eyes went to me and I could tell he wasn't pleased, I guess I was just a work-study student.

"Wait I know who you are!?" the boy cheered and raced over to me looking me over. "Your Aizawa and Yamada-sensei's daughter, aren't you? Wow, they weren't kidding when they said you really do look like them both! Oh is your costume based on Aizawa-sensei's?!"

"Why is there a child here, FatGum?" The man stated stepping forward.

"She's my work-study and she was allowed to come by both her teacher and guardian, she wants to help with the Stain case," FatGum explained.

"Nighteye, Sir she was the one who handled the Endeavor situation, and if Aizawa-sensei believes in her I bet she can help!" the boy chimed, I smiled up at him.

"My name is Yashiro, my hero name is Space-Time Hero Sailor Pluto, I want to lend my help, please let me help you, this is what being a hero means to me," I explained and bowed.

"I thought All Might stopped Endeavor," Nighteye stated, I stood up.

"I brought it to Uncle… I mean All Might's attention, I noticed it a bit before the Festival and I worked with him and Nezu-sensei to capture Endeavor. I can't stand by and do nothing if I can help." I explained, he looked at me harshly.

"What were you going to call All Might?" he demanded, I flushed a bit.

"Well I call all the UA teachers my Aunts and Uncles, Uncle Might is like family." I chimed, I felt the boy pull me close and lean over to me.

"Yashiro that's All Might's old sidekick…" he stated, I looked up to him as he looked lost. "He's kinda All Might's biggest fan so…"

"You were Uncle Might's sidekick," I stated, I smiled at him. "I bet you two were a great team! Then you must know how important it is that we stop Stain, someone like him… He won't stop until someone defeats him, he sees heroes as nothing more than trash seeking glory or whatever. Someone like that would see Uncle Might as a prime target or the one needed to defeat them."

"You figured all that out?" he stated, I nodded.

"I know his type, they think the end justifies the means, he has a goal or else he would not leave some heroes alive. He is making a statement with every victim." I elaborated. "Maybe he sees the flaws I see in the hero system, there a people who only do it for glory or fame and don't care about helping others. There are people like Endeavor who play heroes when they are the villains… But I know there are just as many people who are heroes to help others! The hero killed… He is nothing but his goals now, and nothing will make him stop except capture or death…"

"I see why you were allowed to join us." He stated and tossed folders onto the table. "If you got all that from general news then you might find out exactly what we need from police records."

"I'll do my best." I chimed and bowed to him; I will save you, Iida…

(Later)

I was almost done reading through the police reports and reading them had been an ordeal. But I was learning something, he always used a blade, so ever attack left blood and not just small amounts. But in photo's, it showed he fought with blades he carried on him. So, this was not from his quirk. Did he require blood for it? Most of the heroes should have been able to escape but they didn't…

"I brought some dinner you should take a break," FatGum called entering the room.

"I think he requires blood for his quirk…" I stated, he looked to me confused. "Maybe it activates with contact with blood of the victim…"

"What makes you think that?"

"The police files as say the victims bled profusely before death, why make them bleed… He also carries knives and blades, it would be easier to kill from a distance why go for close range. Unless you only needed to draw and get into contact with the blood to have someone in checkmate…." I began. "He thinks, his attacks aren't random, he does the same number of kills per area. His goal is clear to send a message… So why put that message at risk, unless his close-quarters fighting ensures his victory…"

"You have a point…" he stated, I looked at the image and saw something.

"FatGum look at this image, is it just me or does is look like he has an elongated tongue?" I said racing over to show him the photo.

"It does." He stated.

"Maybe it's by ingesting blood…" I stated, his eyes widened. "That must be it, the feature, the clear quirk connection to blood. Maybe he is able to somehow control his victim after ingesting their blood."

"So, to fight and capture him we'd have to make sure he can't draw blood." He stated, I nodded so I could make armour but out of… wait.

"Do you think we can get access to some of the sharpest and toughest blades around, I think I know a way to block them. I just want to test it…" I said, he nodded and I formed wolverines adamantium claws. "These are from a comic series I read in my time, the metal coating these is the strongest metal in the fictional world, can only be pierced by itself. Not even diamond tips can pierce it. If I wear armour made of this, he won't be able to touch me."

"I'll call to get some weapons but first eat, can't fight crime hungry." He ordered and pulled me into a chair and set a bento before me. "Eat up you did good."

(Shouta's POV)

I groaned as I opened up my eyes, great I have a hangover and my eyes are extremely dry too. Groaning I supported myself with my arm to grab my eye drops. I felt movement next to me as I put in my drops and flopped back into the bed. Is this what happens when I don't go out for a few months… I haven't been in hangover hell for a while.

"Shou you okay?" Hizashi asked, I groaned loudly my head pounding.

"Wake me up tomorrow…" I grumbled, I felt him gently stroke my hair.

"I'll go get some meds and water and then some coffee." He hushed, I hummed as I felt him get up. "Want me to bring in Mochi?"

"Yes please…" I muttered, I heard our door open and he left.

"I've brought the magical Mochi." He announced and I felt Mochi on the bed next to me. "Try to sit up handsome."

I rolled over and saw Mochi looking at me with her big eyes, I pulled her close and she began to lick my stubble. Okay, I can do this, slowly I got myself to sit up cradling Mochi close. She was still licking my chin; she was our eldest cat. I found her as a kitten and took her home, she reminded me of finding Sushi.

"Meow." She chimed nudging my chin, I smiled at her.

"Thanks, Mochi, feeling better already," I stated, she purred and rubbed her cheek across my chin and face.

"Here is some medicine, good work as always Mochi." Hizashi cooed and pet Mochi as he set my med and water on my nightstand.

Taking the meds, I drank some water and let out a small sigh. Mochi was kneading my lap over the blanket. Hizashi must be down making a pot of coffee, I took another sip on water. Mochi settled down and purred in my lap as I petted her.

"Must be quiet here without Yashiro home, huh?" I hummed, Mochi meowed then went back to purring. "I hope FatGum looks after her… She can't help but get herself into trouble. I know she is going to try to fight Stain to save Iida…"

"You really need to tell me things more..." Hizashi stated as I saw him walk in holding a mug in each hand.

"I didn't want you to worry…" I stated, he sat next to me handing me my mug.

"Shou I want to worry with you, talk to me because clearly you've been hiding things." He urged; I took a sip of my coffee.

"I think she overheard me talking to you, she knew FatGum was going to be involved with the Stain case and choose him so she could help Iida…" I explained, he looked at me concerned. "I asked her but she just told me what she told everyone, that it was because he looked like a human Totoro… As much as I worry, I guess I want to believe in her skills, she is determined, and smart… Maybe she can help and with a hero like FatGum at least she will have support…"

"Shou… I know what you mean, she sees so many little details, other miss. Chiyo barely noticed the marks on Shinso neck but she did… I know you trust FatGum, he's a good hero, and he knows what to do… Yashiro will do what she can to help no matter, it's her reaction to her trauma, I guess. No one protected her, so she wants to protect others… But Shou we can't just let her do everything, she's young, she'll take on more than she can handle…" he responded, I nodded gripping my mug tighter. "Shou, we've been together almost fifteen years now, I wish you didn't feel the need to hide things from me…"

"I just don't want to stress you out, the whole deal with Shinso and everything… I don't want you to relapse…" I stated, his eyes softened as he reached a hand to touch my shoulder.

"I wish you could learn to trust me more…" he admitted, I bit my lip. "But I know why you can't… Doubt I would have lived this long if you hadn't stepped in back then… I've been clean of cutting for six years now… I don't want to go back there…"

"Zashi…" I stated, he brushed his hair behind his ears.

"I never want our daughter to see me go there either, I promise I will reach out when I need it. But you need to reach out too… I know how you are, you put a lot on yourself and put the blame for any mishaps on yourself." He explained, I knew he was right… "If you won't reach out to me then please reach out to Nemuri or someone."

"I've talked to All Might about this…" I muttered, he smiled at me. "He said he would reach out to get some help for the Stain case."

"But you can't help but worry because that's just who you are?" he hummed, I chuckled and looked to him.

"You know me too well Zashi…" I stated, turning I pulled him into a kiss. "I should know better, no matter what we will get through it together."

"Yeah the whole in sickness and health till death do us part." He joked and kissed my cheek. "We're a family, even more so now. No matter what happens we will be here for each other and both of us will be there for our daughter."

"We're a team," I affirmed.
