Naoki did a little self-Quirk Assessment with Izuku and All Might, to try and learn more about the third Vector he'd presented during the Entrance Exam, and, afterwards, had a good theory on what it was, but kept his ideas to himself until he could get better evidence, so, he also put it into play when at school, to help increase how well he could control it. As such, once he walked onto campus, he set it up.

Luckily, he was able to hide his presence and avoid the press and their pressuring questions and bothersome verbal assault on the students, staff, and anyone there. He really didn't want to be dragged into that kind of problematic situation. He offered it to Izuku, but the green declined, before they'd reached the gates, and, to no surprise, he was asked and prodded with questions. He dodged them by using the excuse he needed to see the school nurse, sighing when he got into the gate, where Naoki was awaiting, now visible, to the chagrin of a few press members.

His theory was based on the third Vector being a barrier that he manipulated subconsciously, so, he wanted to see if he could keep it going, even if he was focused on school, and, if he could give it parameters like his normal Quirks. The school gates, or the U.A. Barrier seemed like the perfect way to learn, especially with the swarm of press loitering outside the campus. So, he tried to set it with the same rules the gate followed, based on only permitting access when the person seeking entrance had an ID, but, would also alert him if anyone messed with the actual gate. Additionally, it wouldn't harm anyone who actually entered, but, also alert him, and enable him to track them, and he hoped, interrupt or disrupt and Quirk usage they may try. These were all separately added parameters, so he could test how far he could manipulate the Vector for now. He was sure most wouldn't work for now, and maybe not ever, but it was still worth a shot.

He monitored the gate physically, until class began, and found out it his control wasn't fine-tuned with this Vector to do a lot of that, but would alert him if the gate was tampered with, at least... But, seemingly only when it was closed. A press woman tried to enter, and the gate did its job, yet, he only knew by actually seeing it. Though, after a little bit, he was alerted, and he looked, seeing a reported had only bumped into it while trying to get through the crowd there.

Aizawa entered shortly after, and Naoki followed him into the classroom, being eyed for few seconds when he arrived after the teacher, who was also late.

"Naoki, you're late. Even if your things were here and you were only outside the classroom... Now, onto topic. Decent work on yesterday's combat training you guys. I saw the video feeds and went over each of your team's results. Bakugou. You're talented, so don't sulk like a child about your loss, okay?" Aizawa advised.

"Yeah Whatever." Bakugou replied.

"And Midoriya. I see the only way you won the match was by messing up your arm again. Work harder, and don't give me the excuse that you don't have control over your Quirk. That line's already getting old. You can't keep breaking your body while training here. But, your Quirk will be really useful if you can get a handle on it. So show a little urgency, huh?"

"Right!" Izuku was cheered out of his soured attitude at the beginning, when Aizawa praised him at the end.

"Naoki, well done on using you and your teammate's strengths so efficiently. I like that side of you better than the boy who was so reckless and unconcerned with his own safety, as you were in the Entrance Exam. This shows me you are intelligent and able to strategise, so I want to see that more often. Other than this, you also used your opponent's weaknesses to your team's advantage well. I will ask you a few things later on, though, as with you, Hagakure. But, that's later." Naoki nodded his head. "Now, let's get down to business. Our first task will decide your future. You all need to pick a Class Representative."

At first, the class was a little shaken, worried about another surprise test, or the like. But, out of nowhere, everyone was not only relieved, but also excited and cheerful, making Naoki very confused, to say the least. Almost the whole class was eager for the title, jumping up, or yelling out, while Naoki just shrunk back and stayed as quiet as possible in the rukus.

Naoki wanted to ask, but didn't get the chance, before Tenya silenced everyone. "Silence! Everyone! Please!" ONce it was quiet, he continued, "The Class Representative's duty is to lead others. That's not something just anyone can do. You must first have the trust of everyone in the classroom. Therefore, the most logical way to fill this position is democratically. We will hold an election to hold our leader." A few complaints were raised, and Aizawa clocked out.

When the statement that most people would only vote for themselves, Naoki put his own rare two-cents in, "Why not disallow that? Prohibit one voting for oneself, then, people have to acknowledge someone other than themselves as a person worthy of the position. It will make people here think about who is actually capable of performing the duties necessary, rather than self-promoting."

"That's a good idea, Naoki." Tenya agreed. From there, it was agreed upon, and no one complained, out loud, anyways...

When the results were revealed, Izuku was embarrassed, and Naoki was slightly horrified. He had votes... He himself, had voted for Todoroki. The way he had stayed aloof, and emotionally uninvolved, yet was cleary intelligent and strategic, that was why, but why others voted for him was a mystery.

Bakugou lashed out, "Who the hell voted for Deku? Why does the Eyepatch Freak get more votes than me!"

"Alright. The Class Rep is Midoriya, and-" Aizawa began.

"I resign. I refuse. I decline. Please don't make me do that... It's too much for me to handle atop my extra studies to continue catching up academically..." Naoki interrupted.

Aizawa let out a sigh that spoke volumes to his annoyance. "Naoki... Eh... Fine... Then... Yaoyarozu. You'll be deputy." This made Bakugou angry, but Aizawa explained, "I'm assigning it to her because of how you act. You are too brash, too aggressive, and not moments ago, you were threatening whomever voted for Midoriya."

。。。

Soon enough, lunch was being served and Naoki was sitting amongst the rest of the students, eating. He actually rarely had an appetite, but found that eating Lunch Rush's food seemed to stimulate his body into craving food, which would help him retain weight and build up strength, unlike his normal hit-and-miss eating habits.

Izuku was worried he wasn't qualified, and Tenya told him not to worry, stating his reasons, and adding in that was why he'd voted for Midoriya.

Izuku was a little stunned, and Naoki shrugged. "Not sure who voted for me but I hope I didn't disappoint them..." He mumbled.

"I'm sure you didn't, Naoki. But, anyway, Iida, didn't you want to be Class Rep pretty badly?" Izuku asked.

Tenya gave his reply, hinting at his family's agency. They found out he was the younger brother of Ingenium. Izuku was ecstatic, all but fawning over the information.

"Naoki, who did you vote for? I'm just curious, so you don't need to answer..." Ochaco asked after complimenting Tenya's smile.

"Oh- I um... I voted-" His eyes widened, and without warning, he vanished, Izuku calling out after him, and worried.

That was my Vector... At the school gate... Someone... A loud bell wrung out, and a voice announced there was a level-3 security breach, directing all students to evacuate, but Naoki was already outside.

He reached the gate, and saw what he'd sensed wasn't incorrect. The U.A. Barrier's gate was crumbled to pieces, the press now invading the school grounds.

How the hells did that get so damaged... I can reverse the time on it, but not with all these students and civilians here...

After the police arrived and the press were removed from the premises, things quieted down, but Naoki remained where he was.

He watched when Principal Nezu, Midnight, Recovery Girl and No. 13 arrived to investigate.

"How were ordinary members of the press able to bypass our security systems?" Nezu began, Naoki now coming out of his hidden presence, waiting behind the teachers until they finished. He knew he could provide some assistance, if not answers. But, he wanted to wait for the rat to finish. "Someone else must have been behind this. Some Villain actually managed to infiltrate our school. But, was this some display of power, or a declaration of war?"

Naoki spoke up. "N-Nezu-san?" The four turned in a rush, surprised to find him suddenly there, despite knowing they had come alone, and had not been followed.

"Why are you out of your classroom? What's your name, class and who is your teacher?"

"Ah- Uh... I'm Naoki Kirahara, from 1-A, and Aizawa-Sensei is my t-teacher... I... I sensed my own barrier being messed with, and since it had been circumventing the school's own barrier, I knew something was wrong... So, I came out here when it happened, shortly before the alarm went off..." He paused to see if they had any response.

"You are the multi-Quirk user from the Entrance Exams... What do you mean your own barrier? What were you doing with it?" Nezu asked.

"When I was informed about having used a third Vector in the exams, when not being aware of it, I though it might be a subconscious one that acts as a barrier if I need it... I was testing it, and have had it surrounding the interior of this barrier since I arrived today. It just told me if anyone messed with this one. But, whoever did this.... It did the same to my barrier as well... So, it worried me because of how... it felt... It felt like it was rotting, or... being eaten... And, to see the gate like this, I wanted to try and see if I could learn anything else by using Time Manipulation it, but didn't want to do that without permission... If I use that Quirk, it is possible to see, in reverse-time, what happened to it, and how it was done... But, I can do it. If it can help, I'd like to. It may help prevent other students from being hurt in the future, or, help understand who it could have been, what kind of Quirk they used..."

"I see... What do you think, Nezu? Midnight asked, still eyeing Naoki.

Recovery Girl spoke up. "I want to say this, Nezu. Yesterday, this boy healed Izuku Midoriya in a few minutes, when it would have taken him until later today to be fully recovered, if he was reliant on my Quirk. I think this boy is genuine in those feelings, and I personally stand by him in that respect."

Naoki was shocked, but kept his face as calm as he could. He knew his eyes gave away his emotions, if one could interpret them, and not even he could do that well.

"I will allow it, as you are right, Naoki. Any knowledge we can glean is better than being left to assume and guess. You may do as you asked."

Naoki nodded, walking to the gate, stopping a few feet away, and holding his left hand out. "Ah- Nezu-san, it might be a good idea to record it, to look back at later and maybe learn more from when more information is possibly learned later on... I can wait for a little bit, but if you do, I suggest doing so from the front and back..."

"That is a wise idea. Midnight, if you will do that back here, I'll do so from the outside. " Nezu agreed.

After they were in place and situated, Naoki began. Bit by bit, piece by piece, the wall was returned to its proper state, and with it, Naoki felt that third Vector being rebuilt as well. After finishing, he rested his hands on his knees as he caught his breath.

"You did well, Naoki. As the principal, I thank you. I'll give you a pass back to class, but, in the future, please request permission before using your Quirk in such a way, and also, don't make ditching class a habit, young man. We will assess these recordings and make note of what we can notice, but, you may be called in to give your own input, as your Quirk is what alerted you to it, and your Quirk that restored the school gate. " Nezu commended Naoki.

"Why not just have him come along for now. It will be a lot simpler than having him run around. Here, Naoki, have some gummies. Don't eat them all at once, now. "

"Oh... Thank you." He plopped one in his mouth. "I only seem to have an appetite if I eat Lunch Rush's food at school. Then, I actually notice when I'm hungry for the rest of the day..." Naoki followed the teachers.

"I was right... My barrier... I said it had felt like it was rotting, or being eaten, and that's what it looks like happened to the gate... It... It decayed... Both the gate and my barrier... And..." He waited a few more seconds, "There! It looks like it has a specific beginning point. And..." He bounced up, holding his hand out. "It's reasonable to say, hand height for someone around... Maybe... Between 172 and 182 centimeters tall... But, for now... I don't think there's much else I can deduct... I apologise, Nezu-san..." Naoki bowed his head.

"No need for that. We could have had an inkling of the height, but the personal input of how it felt from your own Quirk being involved, that is something we wouldn't have been able to learn of, or from. So, now we know, whomever this is, must have some kind of Quirk that allows them to decay what they touch... That is important, but, for now, not quite enough to give much in the way of good leads. We can only be wary and alert for now. Alright, I'll let the staff know what we've found, but you, yong man need to return to class. Here's a pass. On your way now." Nezu shooed Naoki...
