"My first day at U.A high! Coming off recommendations, thanks to Uncle Aizawa who helped me get in as he is one of the teachers here. I was pretty nervous knowing that I'm going to be at this school. It's going to be great!" I thought to myself as I stood at the doorway of class. I was pretty nervous to know that I'm here! The fact that I am attending a high school where all the pro heroes graduated from is tremendously honoring for me. I just hope I make a good first impression.
"Everyone we have a new student today, he has been accepted through recommendation and I would like for you to show him respect." Mr. Aizawa, a very tired-looking man with long black messy hair was the professor here at UA high, looked at me standing at the door. Yeah... that's my Uncle. "Come on in new kid." Signaling me to enter the class.

As I walked to the front of the class, I started seeing all the students talking amongst themselves: "I wonder what quirk he has?" "How did he get in off of recommendations?" "He must have a super-strong quirk!" "He looks so cute..."
"My name is (Y/N) (L/N), Quirk: Retaliation, I can absorb all physical and elemental attacks then convert it all into energy to power me up. It's great to be here! You are all looking at a future pro hero!" I exclaimed as I shot a heroic pose.

"Thank you (L/N), now you can take your seat next to... Nejire Hado." Professor Aizawa said as he pointed to a blue-haired girl. As I looked around I saw a blue-haired girl frantically waving her arms yelling "Hey! Hey! Hey! Over here! Woooohoooooooo!"

"Great... I'm sitting next to a crazy girl." I thought to myself letting off a sigh of disbelief. As I made my way to my chair, I noticed two individuals that stood out from everyone. A blonde-haired boy has a very dull look on his face accompanied by a smile that seems to have a small bit of his tongue sticking out. Then there was a dark-haired boy who was sitting next to the blonde that didn't bother making any eye contact with me. As I took my seat behind the antisocial antagonist, I was bombarded with hundreds of questions by the blue-haired girl. "How much can your quirk stock up before you break?"
"Uhh..."
Before I could answer, she kept blasting away with more questions. "How long can you hold the stored energy?"
"Well..."
She was getting a bit closer to me now which was making me feel slightly uncomfortable.
"...It's kinda complicated." As I tried to respond, she kept going and going again, with a rapid barrage of questions.

"Can you make yourself fly with the energy? Can you run faster? Can you absorb certain attacks with certain hands? Oh! Are you single? Why do you wear a headband? Are you-" Right before she could let out another question, I see Aizawa's wraps come flying in grabbing hold of her as the entire class was startled. I wasn't expecting him to do that and as soon as I looked at him I can see his eyes getting red and his hair souring upwards giving off a very imposing and intimidating aura.
"Quiet! If you want to ask (L/N) any questions do it AFTER class. Understood, Ms. Hado?" Noticeable frustration as I could see a small vein about to pop off his forehead.
"Right! Sorry, Sensei!" The energetic girl laughed off her embarrassment. The wraps come off her as she glanced over at me with an embarrassed look on her face. She started scratching the back of her head as she said: "Hehe... sorry I tend to ask a lot of questions to new students."
"It's ok.  I don't blame you. It's nice to meet you Hado." Chuckling a bit simply feeling relieved to see her calm down. "Likewise (L/N)!" Gave off a big smile before turning back to face forward. As we started class, I had a strong feeling that this was going to be one interesting year.

After class was over, I started heading to the cafeteria for some food, which was served by the awesome cooking hero himself Lunch Rush! Once I got my food I was looking for a place to sit. As I was heading to an empty table I felt someone tug on my arm. It was Nejire! "Hey Hey (L/N)! Come and join me and the other two are at our table!"
"Umm are you sure...?" Asking confused for a moment as I have no idea why they want me to join them. "Of course! They will love to meet you! Come on now!" As she yanked me to the table where I saw two students from my class. Once I made it to the table, the blond kid stood up with confidence being projected in his voice. "Hey, there (L/N)! Glad you can join us I'm Mirio Togata!" Said the proud blonde as he stuck his hand out to shake your hand.
I smiled and replied, "It's a pleasure to me you Togata. I'm (Y/N) (L/N) which I can see you already knew." As I shook his hand chuckling a bit. I noticed the same dark-haired student next to Mirio in class sitting here as well. Although he hasn't bothered to make eye contact with me.

"Come on Amajiki! Don't be such a chicken and say hi to our new friend!" Nejire said as she started poking Tamaki's head.
"Hi there..." He said slowly raising his head to you. "... I'm Tamaki Amajiki." Unable to stop shaking from how nervous he was to talk.
"Hey there, it's good to meet you, Amajiki," I replied as I stuck my hand out to shake his hand. He lightly shook mine and continued looking away.
"Now pop a squat with me and let the friendship begin!" The happy Nejire Hado yells with delight as she pats the seat next to her, signaling me to sit down. Mirio start laughing a bit as Nejire's sporadic nature kicked into overdrive. I looked at Nejire as she kept the conversation going as she would look at me and the other's rapid-firing questions back to back. Upon first glance, I noticed the wonderful shine in her bright blue eyes mimicking a sunrise on a beautiful day, and her life brightening smile that just seems to give life to her surroundings. You know, for someone as crazy as her, she has to be the most beautiful girl I have ever met.

"So tell us (L/N)! What was the recommendation?? I'm super curious!" She yelled as she was bouncing in her chair.
"Well my Uncle Aizawa helped me get in here since he saw potential in me of being a hero, but of course, he is the one that trained me after all." Abruptly responded without realizing that I was not supposed to tell anyone about Aizawa being my uncle.
"WHHAAAAATT!? Aizawa sensei is your uncle?!" Mirio and Nejire yelled in shock at the same time.
"Yeah but don't yell that out loud!" Yelling back as some people glanced at me as if I was crazy. I took a deep breath and lowered my tone: "Yes he is my Uncle... in a way, but also one tough coach." I said as I lifted my left sleeve and showed them the bruises and scratches on my arm.

"Wow! He is tough, but you must be tougher if you can endure it all." Mirio said chuckling with an optimistic tone that cheered me up.
"Heh. Yeah... Thank you for that." I replied. I was feeling slightly nervous for some reason which I couldn't understand why.
"Well in class you told me that it was complicated how Aizawa was related, but how come?" Nejire asked with a curious look on her face.
"Well... It's that... you know... umm." I was struggling to get the right words out. It was a long story to bring up and I just want to avoid thinking about it entirely because I just met them.
"Oh come on tell us please please please pleaseeeeeeeeeeee!" She said begging as she cupped my hands together which made me slightly blush.
"Hado... maybe you shouldn't be asking such a personal question we just met him and I feel we should let him decide whether or not he wants to open up." We all looked over at Tamaki, who spoke up in response to Nejire's question, shocking us that he was talking. Unfortunately, he started shaking and slammed his head on the table murmuring "Please don't stare at me like that... it makes me nervous..."

We all started laughing and Mirio pats Tamaki's back as he was smiling saying "It's always great to see good ole Tamaki here talking! I also agree with him. It's up to you (L/N) we won't force it upon you." I looked at Tamaki who was still nervously avoiding eye contact while Mirio was smiling shooting me a thumbs up and making me feel comfortable. I look to my left and was caught Nejire's beautiful eyes and amazing smile eagerly waiting for my response. I couldn't help but smile and say: "You know what guys... I guess it can't hurt to tell my new friends about my life just so long as you guys tell me about your life stories." Suddenly both Mirio and Nejire cheered with joy as Tamaki looked up at me and smiled only shortly to hide his face again. This was going to be the start of an amazing friendship as I can already feel it.

"A while back I had lost my Father to a villain attack. It was a bit of a rough time, but thankful Aizawa was there to help me and my mother out by taking us in as his family. My Father and Aizawa were really good friends back then and it was great to know that he was willing to help us." As I told them the story the three were left in shock about it.
"Oh shoot... man, I'm sorry to hear that..." Mirio's positive tone of voice was soon shrouded in his shock and sadness.
"Nah don't be... Trust me I moved on and thanks to Aizawa's training, my goal is to be a pro hero, to save everyone, and make my family proud." Giving a bit of a forced smile to not have them worry about me.
"That's the spirit!" As Nejire fist-pumped the air. "We are all going to be pro heroes!!"
"YEAH!" All of us cheered out loud. This was the start of a great friendship that we all started. I'm looking forward to it!

As several weeks had gone by and an exchange of numbers, the growth of our friendship would become stronger as each moment had gone by. The bond amongst the group would be cemented for ages to come, especially now that Tamaki finally stopped being so nervous around me and treats me like Mirio and Nejire. It was about time that I finally broke through his shell. When the school days were over, the four of us would be walking together talking about our lives, our quirks, and how we are going to be the best heroes. When we were walking, we started a routine of dropping each other at each other's houses. First, it was Tamaki, followed by Mirio, Nejire, and then me. Today was Friday and as we were dropping off Mirio. Right before he left he looked at Nejire and me saying: "You two be careful ok! (Y/N) take good care of Nejire." He said as he winked at me. I was slightly confused why the wink which got me a bit nervous. "You got it, buddy!" As I shot him a thumbs up and walked with Nejire brushing off my nervousness. 

As we continued walking down the block, Nejire and I kept talking about our day and how all the studies we had to learn for class. Before we continued any further, Nejire stopped me and asked: "Would it be ok if I ask you one more question? I'm sorry if I'm being very annoying about it... I want to learn more about your quirk." She said twiddling her fingers as if she was nervous to ask.
"Don't sweat it, here how about this..." as I turned and pointed at an ice cream shop. "... How about we grab some ice cream and then you can ask me all the questions you'd like?"
"Mr. (Y/N) (L/N) ... are you asking me out on a date?" She said with a smirk as she stared at me.

My face got red with embarrassment and knowing she was right, I couldn't make it obvious. I cleared my throat and responded. "No Nejire. We just met, this is just a way for me to get some cookies and cream ice cream and well ... to know what flavor you like.." I said trying to play it cool.
Nejire giggled as she grabbed onto my left arm: "Hmmm ok! I would love to get some ice cream." As she started skipping forward. She stopped and turns around asking: "You coming (Y/N)? You did ask to get some ice cream." She said giggling.
"GAH! Why is she so cute?!" I thought to myself with my face still burning red as we made our way to the ice cream counter.
"I would like two small cookies and cream please!" she said excitedly as if she couldn't contain her energy while hopping up and down.

"Wow Nejire, I didn't know you like cookies and cream ice cream too and you even got two of it," I said trying to joke around.
"Oh, I don't. I never tried it at all, but since it is your favorite flavor I wanted to try it." She said with a sincere smile.
"So... who is the 2nd one for?" I asked tilting my head in confusion. (Idiot it's for you!) my conscious barked right at me.
Nejire started laughing as she replies: "It's for you, silly! Why else would I order two of your favorite flavor." She smiled as she handed me the ice cream.

I was blushing in embarrassment from the fact I didn't realize that the ice cream was for me.
"That will be 600 yen. Are you paying together?" The worker asked as he looked at us waiting for our response.
"We will be paying-" she was interrupted by a hand slamming the counter with money.
I stepped in so quickly without thinking and handed the man the money saying: "Yes, that will be together sir." I remarked boldly.
"Didn't expect you were going to pay for both, (Y/N). I can pay for myself if anything."
"Oh, it's ok, Nejire. I did offer you some ice cream after all."
"Well, in that case, Thank you for the ice cream!" As she started munching down on her ice cream with pure delight.
I started laughing a bit as her joyful attitude just radiated off of her so intensely. As soon as I paid for the ice cream we went to sit down by a table near the window as we started eating before starting our conversation. I have a feeling we are going to get along just well.

•••

An hour had gone by as Nejire and I were having endless chatter about each other's life, quirks, stories, favorite music, food, colors, and then Nejire asked "So since we are going to be training for our exams coming up soon. Would you like to study with me, Mirio, and Amajiki?"
"I would like that! It would be cool to be able to study with all of you."
"It's settled! I'll let them know that you'll be joining us." Nejire chuckled in response to my excitement, but as she looked at her phone she notice it was getting late.
"Oh shoot! Looks like we will have to save the talking for later. I have to start heading home." As she got up and grabbed her stuff, she turned back to me and smiled. "Thank you for the ice cream, (Y/N)! It was super good!"
"Anytime Nejire! Hope we can do this again."
Nejire has a soft smile on her face. "I would like that. See you around (Y/N)!" As she waved a goodbye and headed out the doors.

You know, if I have to be honest, Nejire is honestly the sweetest girl I've met in a while. She always has this aura of positivity just surrounding her at all times. I think it's nice to know I have some good friends here at UA. Looking at the time, it was getting pretty late and I should start walking home as well. As I grabbed my stuff, I made my way out the door and started walking home.
"This was a lot of fun. I wouldn't have imagined just sitting down with her and talking for so long. I'm just glad I got the chance to do so. I wonder what else will happen along the way?"
As I got home and walked into the house, my mom is in the living room watching the news. She notices me coming and perked herself up.
"Hey, sweetie! How was school today?"
"Hey, mom! It's been going great these past few days. I like UA high."
"I'm glad you do, (Y/N). I'm just thankful for Aizawa's help in getting you here. Now don't forget to shower up before bed alright?"
"You got it. Have a good night mom." As I have her a hug before making my way up the shower.
After a nice warm shower, I got dressed in my black tank top and All Might pajama pants. As I flopped onto my bed, I felt my phone vibrate. It was the group chat making plans for the weekend. I opened up my phone and started reading.

[ Group chat ] : Elite 4!

(Mirio) Pip_Boy715: Hey Guys! We all need to practice using our quirks better! So this weekend we are going to meet at the training field at school to train! Bring your A-game! :D

Tamaki: Good night guys, See ya soon (thumbs up)

Nejire: Good night boys! See ya tomorrow :*

You: Good night y'all!

After closing my phone, I set it up to charge so that way I could have it ready for tomorrow. I couldn't fall asleep right away. Mainly because I couldn't stop thinking about everything going on in my mind.
"At this point, there are so many things coming across my mind about the training, and how I am going to improve my quirk to get better. There's no more time to waste! Tomorrow is going to be the big fight day! Time to sleep." I thought to myself as I shut the lights off. The day ended off just right and tomorrow as we are about to take each other head-on in sparring! You better be ready guys! Here I come!!
