Akane Celeste, a four year old girl, roams around the streets. She is obviously lost, but she doesn't show to the people around her that she is scared that she wouldn't find her father and her way home.
Some people stopped by to help her but...
'Don't talk to strangers,' Celeste thinks as she continuously ignore the people surrounding her, and even those who want to help her.
Celeste continues to search for her dad in the bustling streets of Tokyo.
Dawn finally comes around and Celeste still hasn't found her father, making all her hope wane and the tears she was once holding back, clouds her view.
But then...
"Are you lost, child?" A gentle, mellifluous voice that obviously came from a woman asks from behind Celeste.
Although as much as the voice of the source sounds like she means no harm, Celeste doesn't turn to the person.
'Don't talk to strangers,' Celeste repeats her mantra inside the cautious mind of hers. 'They're dangerous.'
"Huh? Did you not hear me?"
Celeste quickens her pace as quick as her little legs could manage.
The curious woman from behind the four year old lands a gentle hand on the girl's shoulder, only for it to be slapped away.
Celeste finally turns around to face the woman with a frown.
The woman wears a black catsuit that shows a bit of her cleavage and a black mask that covers only the top part of her face.
Celeste's frown then turns into a look of awe.
"Heh, I look awesome, donn't I?" the woman boasts with a lopsided grin.
"Are you a villain?" Celeste asks bluntly, making the woman's eyes widen.
"What!? Why would you-" the woman clears her throat, "no, I'm a hero-well, a vigilante, actually."
"A vigilante?" Celeste asks, curiosity lacing her tone of voice.
"Shh!" the woman clamps shut the mouth of Celeste with her hand. "People might hear you, you know!"
After a few seconds, the woman removes her hand from the child's mouth and crouches down to her level.
"A vigilante is a hero who doesn't have a hero license, they are also known to help people...illegally," the woman says in a quiet tone only for Celeste's ears to hear.
"You're not a villain then," Celeste says in disappointment.
"No," the woman says, a bit confused as to why a child would be disappointed about her not being a villain. Well, she suppose she does look like a villain. "And let's take you to your parents, they must be worried sick about you!"
The woman stands up on her feet and offers a hand for Celeste to hold. Celeste stares at the woman's hand before grabbing it with a bit of hesitation.
"So what do they look like?" The woman asks as she looks around the place.
"My dad is really tall, he always is on fire in the TV and he is really muscular too!" Celeste says with a happy smile.
"And your mom?" The woman asks as she starts to walk with Celeste.
"She just died a week ago," Celeste says as she looks up to the woman and forms a gun with her free hand and points it to her head. "She shot herself in the head."
"Oh," the woman says, suddenly regretting her question. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be sorry if you don't mean it," Celeste rests her arm on her side and looks straight ahead, looking casual.
"Well, uh, so where do you and your dad live?" It is a stupid question, but it's the only question that pops up in the woman's mind due to discomfort.
"I just escaped from the orphanage, and my dad's house is in," Celeste thinks about it for a while, "I don't really know."
The woman suddenly stopped from her tracks and looks at Celeste with a frown. "You mean, you're an orphan!?"
Celeste nods her head and the woman sighs at that's
"Which orphanage? I'm going to-"
"No!" Celeste says as she yanks away her hand from the woman. "If you do, I won't see my dad ever again!"
"But-" The woman cuts herself short when she sees the glassy eyes of Celeste. "Fine, then what's your dad's name?"
...
"Miss?" A random person taps Celeste's shoulder, making her wake up from her dreamworld.
"Ah, yes?" Celeste asks as she removes her earphones and places them inside the pocket of her gray blazer.
Celeste is a slim girl standing at 5'4" who has long red hair that reaches down her waist, cyan blue eyes, and wears the standard uniform for the female students at Sakura High which consists of a gray blazer, a white button down shirt, a tie that is red in color which signifies that she is still in her first year, and a plain black skirt that reaches just above her knees. She also wears black stockings that covers her legs up to her knees and leather shoes.
"This is your stop, right?" The person asks.
"Stop?" Celeste looks outside and her eyes widen upon seeing the familiar station that is her current stop. Celeste stands up on her seat as she grabs her burgundy-colored backpack that is sitting just beside her and dashes toward the open doors of the train. "Uh, thank you!" Celeste says to the person who woke her up before going out of the train.
"I must have dozed off again," Celeste mumbles.
Upon feeling the vibration of her phone from where she kept her earphones, Celeste grabs her mobile device and unplugs the earphones.
Celeste opens her phone and read her notification from her e-mail.
In big, bold letters, the title read: UA'S CLASS 1-A HAS DONE IT AGAIN
Celeste scoffs at that.
She isn't bothered that the Class 1-A of UA is getting all the attention, but it's because it's always UA!
For crying out loud, Shiketsu High also exists! The person, Inaasa, who scored the highest in the entrance exams probably has a more interesting life than those people from UA.
There's also Sakura High, but Celeste won't get her hopes that high.
"UA this,UA that, don't people ever get tired of them?"
Of course not, and Celeste knows that. Why? All Might. People love All Might.
Actually, the people love Small Might now. Sure, All Might saved the doom of many people on that one time with All for One, but what about Kamui? Mt. Lady? And other more heroes? Those heroes almost died too!
But every friggin' attention is on All Might and UA!
"Ugh, why are people these days so boring?" Celeste says as she stuff her phone back into her pocket with a sigh of exasperation.
"Isn't that the female uniform for Sakura High?" Celeste hears a person say.
"That school with embarrassingly weak students?" Another person comments, making Celeste roll her eyes.
'At least we're not stupid, you female dogs.'
"Yeah, that one," Person A says. "They seriously embarrassed themselves on the hero license exams last year, don't you think?"
"Well, duh," Person B replies. "The only people who get accepted there are those who are desperate!"
Celeste clenches her jaw and quickens her pace because she doesn't want to start a fight with them.
She has no control of her quirk whatsoever, but she isn't desperate!(A/N: And by no control, I meant her quirk has been flickering off whenever she attempts to use it)
Why are people nowadays so judgmental?
Celeste heaves a heavy sigh as she calms her nerves down.
"Parents must be ashamed of them," Person A says.
Celeste stops on her tracks and turns to face the two of them with a scowl present on her face.
"The only reason as to why we can't go to prestigious high schools is because we can't afford it!" Celeste snaps at them, but what she just said was only the half-truth since most of the kids who go to Sakura High are those who actually have potential but lacks training so they end up in Sakura High.
She would tell them that but as if they would believe her.
"And like I said, desperate," Person B says to Person A with a shrug.
Celeste wants to scream at them, rip their limbs apart, boil them, and make them eat themselves.
As vulgar as that sounds, Celeste really wants to do that because of just how annoying they are.
She didn't even realize that she looks like a smoking dragon that is about to fire.
"We'll just go," Person A says akwardly as she grabs Person B and drags her away from Celeste.
Celeste calms down a bit and clicks her tongue before she proceeds to walk toward Sakura High in a sour mood.

A/N: English isn't my first language and I know it stinks (sorry), so feel free to point out my grammatical and spelling errors if ever you spot any. And I haven't watched the anime yet, so this fanfic is based on the manga.
That's all I want to say so I hope you enjoyed this first chapter!
