"Hey! Shouta!" Yamada boomed with a hand up, motioning for Aizawa to have a high-five.
Aizawa grumbled back before walking forward and bumping the blonde on the shoulder as he walked through the halls.
"C'mon man! Don't ignore me!" Yamada called while he chased after the scraggy man.
Speaking of which, Aizawa was definitely not in the mood to deal with Hizashi at the moment, he was going to have an important meeting and the blonde keeps on annoying him.
Breaking into a sprint, Yamada called out to Aizawa while he waved with one hand. "Hey! At least let me give you some pointers!"
Now *that got Aizawa's attention.
The man clad in black gave a long exasperated sigh before he turned back. "Make it quick" he said.
"Don't get caught out abruptly by Nedzu" Yamada spoke. "Anything else?" The scraggy man countered. "Nah man, good luck out there" with a wink and a thumbs up, Yamada sent Aizawa off.
The man walked through the large hall of U.A for a bit, it was tiring and monotonous. Aizawa was getting impatient.
Break
"Mi-Aizawa-san! C'mon, let's go on the swing!"
"Aizawa-san Aizawa-san! Show us your quirk please?"
Izuku wasn't used to this much attention and positivity whenever people talked to him, so as usual he was flustered.
Izuku muttered while he readjusted his scarf "U-Uhh.. S-Sorry I h-have to eat lunch first" he gripped onto his lunchbox before Katsuki butted in the crowd of kiddies in between them. "Get off Deku ya gooks!"
"K-Kacchan!" Izuku called out while the ash-blonde boy stomped his way in front of the mob.
"C'mon, let's ditch these losers" grabbing Izuku's wrist, Katsuki ran while the green-haired boy struggled to keep up. Many of the other children behind them have shouted sounds of protest and annoyance, but Katsuki and Izuku were already out of earshot.
The two kids stopped underneath a tree nearby the elementary school, Izuku was huffing in exhaustion while the ash-blonde was starting to unpack his lunch.
Taking a big bite out of his sandwich, Katsuki started to speak with his mouth full. "So Deku... Ya finally got adopted eh?" He asked.
Taking a seat besides Katsuki, The green-haired boy sat underneath the tree. Taking out his own lunch, Izuku responded. "Uhh Y-Yeah. It isn't so bad actually, He's really nice!"
"He better be" Katsuki said with a huff "Or I'll send his ass back to the sewer he came from" with another bite of his food and a grim smile Katsuki spoke.
"Speaking of which" the explosive kid added. "The guy who adopted you, it's that mummy in black isn't it?"
"H-He isn't a mummy Kacchan. It's just that he has this thing called capture gear. It's really super cool! He's a pro hero and depending on the situation, he can almost fight anyone quirkless! Oh! And he's got these cool goggles which hide his eyes!" Izuku said with a mimicking motion, cupping his eyes to simulate glasses.
"Why the hell would he need those?" Katsuki asked back.
"It's because of his quirk! It's kinda like mine, but different! He can stop people from using their quirks just by looking at them" The green-haired boy said with pride
"That's..." Katsuki took a small pause as he looked at Izuku seriously for a moment. "Pretty damn cool" he finally added after around 3 seconds of assisted silence and excited anticipation for a response.
"He's super cool too! He looks like a ninja with all the stealth and his capture gear and his utility belt a-and his cool gold goggles as well!" Izuku was ranting on, but Katsuki was half listening.
'There's no fucking way' Katsuki thought to himself as Izuku ranted on. 'There's no way that those two *Couldn't be related' He narrowed his eyes on the green-haired boy. Katsuki could see little to no relation to the scraggy man names shouta Aizawa. 'Maybe the Black highlights could be his?' He thought while he saw Izuku give a few hand gestures while he kept on talking. 'Quirks don't just pop up randomly though' Katsuki leaned back and crossed his arms. His thoughts were going haywire at the moment.
"-He basically tangles the stuff around his opponents while their quirks are disabled." Izuku said with stars in his eyes.
"Yeah, that's great and whatever" Katsuki half-listened with a roll of his eyes. Izuku was going full nerd now, the ash-blonde boy knows that little to nothing can stop Izuku's rants. Especially if it's about heroes, he knows that Izuku has a few notebooks that he likes to keep and write down in about heroes. Katsuki refers to this as being a stalker, but Izuku argues that it's just observations.
"yadda yadda yadda, whatever. The bell just rung, let's go back to class" the explosive teen said to Izuku.
"W-Wait! Hang on! I haven't eaten yet!" He replied hastily while he fished out his bento.
"That's what you get for ranting on for so long!"
Break
taking one last glance at his phone, Aizawa knocked on the door labeled "Principal's office" the door was rather strange, it was normal sized compared to all the other humongous entrances in the U.A building.
"Come in! Come in!" A cheery voice from the other side said as Aizawa opened the door. He was greeted by a short white mammal of unknown species. "Hello there Aizawa-kun!" The animal known as Principal Nedzu greeted.
"Hello Nedzu" AIzawa gave a quick bow and closed the door behind him. "Come, there are many matters that we need to discuss" Nedzu chirped as he walked to the other side of the small room and sat down on his desk.
"Would you like some tea?" Nedzu asked as he held a tea pot and two teacups. "No, it's alright" Aizawa replied. "C'mon Aizawa-kun, it's camomile" the white bear-rat-dog thing stated while he poured himself a steaming cup. "No, really. It's fine" Aizawa refused. "Suit yourself" The white animal shrugged and took a sip of his hot drink.
He lowered his cup and laid in on his desk, Aizawa walked up and took a seat in front of him before he spoke. "So, first things first. I am very happy that you have taken up the offer of becoming one of the teaching U.A staff. I suppose that your acquaintances Nemuri and Yamada have spoke to you about my interviews?" Nedzu always had this eerily cheery tone even though he talks about grim or serious topics, but that's what's intimidating about the quirked animal.
"They didn't really tell me much, but I do know that you still have some prerequisites" Aizawa said with boredom laced in his voice, he fished out a small stack of paper from his tiny tote-bag that he brought. It was just the usual, birth certificate, pro hero license, college certificate, and what not.
"Thank you" Nedzu said with a smile while he took the stack of papers from Aizawa's hand. The bear-rat-thing hummed cheerily while he skimmed through the small mound of paperwork. He grew an ear to ear grin when he took glance at a little document in his hand.
"Soo..." Nedzu became while Aizawa too a drop of Eye-drops. "How's the kid doing, Aizawa-kun?"
The man said raised his eyebrow before responding. "He's fine" a short and sweet answer, not too detailed, but not too scarce. The Animal-man hummed a bit in thought before he spoke again.
"It's quite strange that you of all people would be adopting someone, I've seen your type of attitude and have observed your minimalist and straight to the point personality. It's just that I find it strange that you would be bringing in dead weight." Nedzu said with a smile.
"He isn't dead weight" Aizawa responded before a little voice in his head reminded him to be weary of nedzu. "It's just that Izuku has no family left, and I feel responsible for the loss of his mother." Aizawa replied while he restrained his cold tone.
'There it is again' Aizawa thought to himself while looking at Nedzu. 'That shit-eating grin he has'
"So Aizawa-kun" Nedzu started once again. "Why do you want to be a teacher at U.A high, hmm?" The grin from ear to ear that Nedzu had never left during the conversation.
"Like I said, it's for extra cash" the man clad in black responded.
"Yes yes, we've gone through that already. But you being a pro-hero already has a fair payroll, especially since you work at night and Heroes that take on night patrols are generally paid twice the amount that heroes during the day." The cheery attitude that nedzu had, only emphasized his intimidating stature.
"Tell me Aizawa-kun, Does Izuku here want to become a pro-hero as well?" Taking the adoption papers and putting it on top of the pile, nedzu exclaimed.
'What is he planning?' Aizawa asked himself before he responded. "He's a fanatic, it's all he's talking about"
"Hmm" Nedzu hummed. "That's quite nice, having a son that's very passionate about protecting and serving justice" The white bear-thing took another sip of his tea. "Tell me Aizawa-kun, has he ever considered going to U.A?" The man with eye bags raised an eyebrow for a moment before he replied.
"He seems to like this school, a lot." Aizawa added while Nedzu smiled wildly.
"I would very much like to meet this Izuku Aizawa child. He seems quite nice, I could even secure him a spot in the recommended lot." The long-haired man looked at nedzu a bit before he spoke. "That's not necessary, Izuku is more than capable of passing the entrance exam."
"Hmm... If I'm not mistaken, Izuku's quirk isn't for combat. It's more for suppression than anything. That kind of quirk won't be able to help him during the practical portion Aizawa-kun." the animal chirped. "You know that more than anybody"
The man grit his teeth and clenched his fist for a moment before he responded. "I know, He doesn't need a quirk to fight robots. He has tools at his disposal"
"I see." Nedzu added while he smiled. "You know Aizawa-kun, I'm beginning to think that you're not here to just work for U.A"
"What are you saying?" Aizawa said while he squinted his eyes. "I'm saying that you don't really need extra money, but you might have an underlying and hidden motive underneath the teacher guise. But it's all in good heart really, tell me Aizawa-kun why would you go so far as to work here so early?" Nedzu responded.
Aizawa pinched the bridge of his nose while he grunted annoyingly "He's determined to go to this school in specific in a few years, I'm going to make sure that he doesn't blow his chance and watch him do it." An exasperated sigh escaped his mouth when he replied.
"Thank you for cooperating Aizawa-kun and welcome to the U.A staff" Nedzu said was he stood from his desk and bowed lightly. "I'm excited to work with you" the animal added.
"Whatever" Aizawa grunted while he bowed back.
"By the way Aizawa-kun, I'd like to meet your son when the time comes that he's on his last year on elementary." Nedzu added.
"What are you planning for him?" Aizawa asked with intrigue.
"That will have to wait for when I see him in person."
"You know, he could meet you right after this little interview. I mean, his day at school should be over by now" the man clad in black stated once he brought up his arm and pulled back his sleeve and took a glance at his wristwatch.
"Nonsense Aizawa-kun, I'm a very patient Man-Bear-Dog-Thing" a happy tone laced in his voice made him oh-so eerie.
"Fine" Aizawa grunted back.
And so the teaching day-job Aizawa took upon himself to undertake started. Izuku asked him so many times while they trained or during dinner time, but Aizawa kept on replying with "Teaching" as a very vague answer. Although Aizawa knows that he shouldn't be hiding anything from Izuku, he knows that the young boy would go haywire once he learns that his father is currently in the U.A staff.
Seven years have gone by while the boy has trained his body to the utmost extreme while Aizawa accompanied him all the way. Izuku, the fifteen Year-old boy with a pro hero guardian has always been the topic during the little down-time Aizawa had resting in the teacher's lounge. Especially with Yamada and Nemuri, the two always seem to turn the topic to the Aizawas.
Teaching has been relatively easy for Aizawa, but that changed once Nedzu decided to transfer Aizawa from being the homeroom teacher of the general education department to the hero course. The first few weeks were extremely stressful for the man, especially since he had little to no sleep from going on night patrol every week. Izuku worried at first, but Aizawa being Aizawa, he pushed through and went by with vigor.
At first he was a little hesitant at expelling a student, but after a whole class being extremely cocky and quirk reliant, he now expels with extreme prejudice. The whole controversy of Aizawa expelling a whole class has spread through the years, and they haven't stopped yet. The man has a no-nonsense type personality and his expulsion record has got the numbers to back it up.
Meanwhile, Izuku has been training with his capture gear and scarf so much that he doesn't even need to consciously think about using the scarf to activate it. Izuku can almost fight anyone his age, save for the fact he struggles with quick and slippery mutant-type quirks. Aizawa has seen the potential the boy has, especially with a broken quirk like that. It wasn't actually broken though, Izuku still had to get near a target and initiate physical contact to get the quirk going. And that's usually a big no no, especially with fire or poison based emission quirks. But unlike Aizawa though, only a single touch can stop someone from using their quirk for half a minute. Izuku has trained enough that the timer on his quirk has increased from 25 seconds to 30, sure it isn't game-changing or anything, but it's still a nice and welcome buff.
The years just rolled by while the boy trained, and Aizawa being a teacher while doing some pro-hero business during the night. The end year finally came for his elementary days, but Izuku is just getting started.
