Chapter 3: Meeting & Training Time
—»
Midoriya and Nagisa walked down the hallway in the direction of the former's current class. On the way, Nagisa asked Midoriya how the educational system was like in U.A High School.
"Hmm...I wouldn't say it strays too far from a normal school," Midoriya said.
"Okay, but what exactly do you guys learn about here?" Nagisa asked, "Do you only get taught about things involving how to be a hero or are there other aspects you look into?"
They made a turn around a corner before Midoriya answered.
"Well, we do still have your general subjects like English, Math and History, but along with that normal side of education we also learn how to be heroes," he explained, "For example, we have training sessions and earlier in the year we got to choose our hero names and design our hero costumes!"
"Wow, seriously?"
Midoriya nodded, "Yeah, plus on top of that we're taught by real Pro-Heroes! In fact the two teachers we just spoke to are heroes themselves, well Aizawa-sensei is, All Might isn't anymore..."
Nagisa noticed Midoriya's wavelength became uneasy. He wondered why.
"Did...something happen?" Nagisa asked carefully.
"Well, he really just retired," Midoriya scratched his cheek.
"Was he a great hero?"
"Oh yeah!" Midoriya lit up, "He was the Number One Hero, the Symbol of Peace! Fighting crime with a smile on his face!" Midoriya's eyes sparkled, "I've looked up to him since I was a kid! And when I finally got to meet him in person, I swear I thought I was dreaming!" his eyes then softened, "He's definitely had a huge impact on my life here at U.A, in fact I don't think I could have come here...if it wasn't for All Might."
"So, you could say that he's an inspiration to you, and you look to him for advice and support?"
"Yeah, pretty much. Honestly, I owe him a lot," the greenet said, "That's why I try my best to work hard and give it my all so one day, I can be an amazing hero just like him!"
"I see," Nagisa's expression became unreadable. When Midoriya spoke about All Might, the former hero strangely reminded him of someone similar in his own life. He wondered if they were worried about the blunet's absence.
'Probably...' Nagisa thought, a sad smile forming on his face, 'It must be hard for everyone wondering where I am. I really wish there was a way I could contact them...'
"Nagisa?"
Said blunet snapped away from his thoughts to look up at the greenet. Midoriya returned a confused expression.
"Is everything okay?" Midoriya asked, holding the door handle to a classroom.
Nagisa waved him off, "Ah, yeah I'm fine!"
Midoriya smiled, "Well anyway, this is my next class. I'm sure everyone will be happy to properly meet you!"
"Um okay," Nagisa said, slightly nervous.
"Don't worry you'll get along with most of them," the greenet said, "My class is Class 1A. We're a bit on the eccentric side but I'm sure you'll fit right in..."
'An eccentric class, huh? Maybe it won't feel to different from home,' Nagisa thought as Midoriya slid the door open and the two entered the classroom.
Was Nagisa nervous? Hell yes! Was he gonna show it? Hell no! Still he wanted to trust Midoriya's words, and from what he already saw (most) of the high schoolers seemed like nice people. And since he was probably going to be here a while, he ought to get along them.
Still, after the incident earlier (he still shuddered at the thought), he feared that he might have shown a bit too much of his assassin skills, which probably wasn't the best idea in a school for heroes. Maybe he'll be lucky and they won't bring it up.
Yeah, they probably forgot...
"Hey it's the kid who almost killed Mineta with a pen!"
Or not...
Nagisa immediately hid behind Midoriya. The greenet sweat dropped.
"Sero, he has a name!" Yaoyorozu scolded the black haired male. She walked over to the two and bent down a bit as she came to Nagisa.
"Hey there, Nagisa-kun right?" She asked with a kind smile. "You don't have to be scared, everything's okay,"
"Seriously Yao-momo?" Jiro folded her arms, "He's isn't a child."
"I was just trying to be nice!" The ponytailed female protested.
"Okay, then how old are you?" Hagakure asked. Nagisa seemed to blanch at the disembodied voice coming from the bundle of floating school uniform.
"Um...I'm fourteen," the blunet managed out with a shocked expression. "I'm in my third year of junior high..."
"See, he's only a year or two younger than us," Jiro said as most of the class began to form around the blunet. Midoriya put his arms out, "Hey guys! Give him some space, he's nervous as is!"
"Oh~" Ashido walked closer to the two boys, "Look at Midoriya already being a big brother to Nagisa-chan!"
"Aww~! That's so cute!" Uraraka said, holding her cheeks, "You're so sweet Deku-kun!"
Deku blushed at the compliment and scratched the back of his head.
"I must say, you're quite magnifique!" Aoyama said, doing a dramatic pose as he pointed at the blunet, "Almost as magnifique as moi!"
Nagisa sweatdropped at the blond, "Thank...you..."
Soon most of the class began introducing themselves and talking to Nagisa, while others who remained seated, namely Todoroki, Tokoyami and Bakugo, watched the scene or in Bakugo's case, didn't care.
"He seems like an interesting kid," Tokoyami said, "I wonder where he came from and..." he narrowed his eyes, "...where he learnt those skills."
Todoroki's eyes travelled to his bird-headed classmate for a moment before making their way back to Nagisa who was trying to keep up with what the surrounding teens were telling him.
"True..." The white and red haired male said, "Clearly he's no ordinary boy..."
"Do you think he has a quirk?" Tokoyami asked.
"Possibly..." Todoroki said as he flashbacked to the moment the blue haired boy aimed the pen at their classmate's throat. He had shown to have quick reflexes, like they were trained. "But it might be something else entirely..."
"Like what?" Tokoyami turned to Todoroki. The other continued to stare at the blunet before shrugging.
"Who knows?"
Bakugo, who was listening to the conversation between the other two, just clicked his tongue. Ashido turned to them, "Hey guys! You should introduce yourselves to Nagisa-chan too!"
The three perked up. Nagisa finally noticed them. Some guy with a raven's head, some other guy with different colored hair and eyes and the angry-looking blond guy he met in the hallway.
At this point he wasn't sure how to react at the appearances of some of these students. His eyes stayed focused on Bakugo.
'He's the one who sounds just like...' Nagisa began to think before Kirishima spoke. "C'mon guys, it's kinda rude that you haven't spoken to our new friend here."
"Yeah! Come say hello to the trap!" Hagakure said.
Nagisa sweatdropped, "I'd really appreciate it if you didn't call me that..."
"Tch! I don't have to introduce myself to some kid!" Bakugo said angrily.
"Don't be like that man, just say hello!" Kaminari said.
"Shut up!"
Yaoyorozu sighed, "Sorry about him, he's always angry..." she turned to Tokoyami and Todoroki, "Well aren't you two going to say anything?"
"Ah right," Tokoyami began, "My name is Tokoyami Fumikage. Nice to meet you."
Todoroki spoke next, "Todoroki Shouto. Pleasure." He turned to Bakugo, "Your turn."
"What is this? Fucking kindergarten?" Bakugo yelled. "Like hell I'll tell him my name!"
"He's Bakugo Katsuki," Kirishima told Nagisa.
"FUCK YOU!"
Nagisa sweatdropped but still bowed. "It's nice to meet you all."
"Wish I could say the same!" The angry blond grumbled.
"He doesn't mean that," Kirishima told Nagisa, "He's an okay guy once you get to know him,"
"Well, I don't know about that. I mean, him and Midoriya have known each other since they were kids and Midoriya's the one he treats the worst," Sero said.
"Really? You both have known each other for that long?" Nagisa asked slightly surprised.
Midoriya scratched his cheek, "Yeah, Kacchan and I have known each other since childhood."
"Kacchan?"
"That's what I call him..."
"Does he have a nickname for you?"
"Yeah, it's Deku, but it's also my hero name now,"
"Wow, it must mean something heroic!"
"Well...it didn't at first,"
"Wait...what did it mean at first?"
The greenet sighed, "That I was basically worthless..."
"Oh..."
Midoriya smiled, "It's alright, really! I don't see it like that anymore anyway, so it's fine!"
Nagisa thought for a moment, "Well...then I guess if it wasn't for him then you wouldn't have a hero name."
"Huh," Deku placed a hand on his chin, "I guess that is true. But I owe someone else too-"
"OI! STOP TALKING ABOUT ME SHIT NERD!"
"Ah! Sorry Kacchan!"
Iida clapped his hands, "Alright everyone! Let's get back to studying!"
"Aww!" Ashido whined, "You're no fun, Iida!"
"Wait, this is a study period?" Midoriya asked.
"Yup, but I doubt anyone's gonna get back to studying now, ribit." Asui said.
"I know!" Hagakure exclaimed, "Let's all tell Nagi-chan our quirks!"
"Good idea!" Kaminari agreed.
"No! We can do that later! We should study now!" Iida yelled.
"I agree, we should really get back to studying before a teacher comes in here," Yaoyorozu said.
"Then how about we vote?" Ashido suggested catching everyone's attention. "All in favor of studying raise your hand!"
Yaoyorozu and Iida raised their hands.
"Okay, all in favor of not studying and rather getting to know Nagisa-chan and showing him our quirks, raise your hand!"
Practically the rest of the class did so.
"Seriously!?" The representative duo yelled. Iida looked at Deku bewilderedly, "You as well Midoriya!?"
Midoriya chuckled nervously as he slowly brought his hand down, "Well...I don't see why we can't do it, Nagisa's going to be a part of our class in the meantime...it would be good for us to get to know him and for him to get to know us so..."
"Unbelievable..." The bespectacled teen muttered.
"But come on, even you Todoroki-kun?" Yaoyorozu turned to the red and white haired teen.
Todoroki shrugged, "I don't really feel like studying anyway..."
Yaoyorozu and Iida fell to their knees and hands dramatically, a pillar of light shining on each of them, "There's no hope left in this class..."
"Are they...gonna be okay?" Nagisa asked, slightly concerned at their depressed auras.
"Nah, don't worry, they'll be fine!" Jiro said, waving him off, "They'll probably join us anyway..."
"Speaking of joining us," Ojiro began looking around the classroom, "Has anyone seen Mineta?"
"Ugh, why are you asking about that creep?" Ashido asked, slightly disgusted.
The martial arts teen scratched the back of his head, "I'm just curious..."
"Didn't he come to class with us?" Kirishima asked.
"More like Kaminari and I dragged him to class," Sero scoffed, "The bastard could barely walk after what happened."
"Yeah, but where is he?" Ojiro asked again.
"He's been sitting in that corner for most of the period already..." Todoroki pointed to a far corner on the left side of the room.
Everyone's eyes followed his hand to see a completely white Mineta, sitting with a traumatized expression on his face.
They all sweat dropped.
Nagisa grew uncomfortable at the sudden silence in the room.
"Um, so anyway..." Uraraka broke the awkward silence and turned to look at everyone, "Why don't we start showing Nagisa-kun our quirks!"
Everyone nodded.
"Okay, I'll go first!" The brunette chimed, "My hero name is Uravity and my quirk is Zero Gravity! It allows me to alter the gravity of anything I touch with my finger tips and make it float!"
"Whoa! Really?" Nagisa's eyes sparkled. Uraraka nodded, "Uhuh! Let me show you!" She moved back and touched a desk. She then put her fingers together as the desk began to float in the air. Nagisa eyes grew in amazement.
"And...release!" she said as the desk came down.
"Wow!"
"Thanks," She said before scratching her cheek, "Although if I keep something floating for too long, I get nauseous..."
"I see," The blunet said.
"My turn!" Ashido said, "My hero name's Pinky and my quirk's Acid! It allows me to excrete acid from my body and also control its corrosive strength and stickiness!"
"Really~"
"Yup! Check it out!" She shoots acid at the board.
"Wow!"
"Ashido! You could've at least aimed it at something else instead of the board!" Iida complained.
"Oops," she apologized. "So who's next?"
"Me! My hero name's Chargebolt and my quirk is Electrification!" Kaminari inserted, "It allows me to absorb and produce electricity! Check it out!" The blond then shot electricity at a wall, leaving a burnt mark.
"Cool!" Nagisa said in awe. Kaminari smirked.
"Why did you shoot the wall? Now there's a burnt mark there!" Iida screamed.
"Oops," Kaminari scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
"His quirk is pretty cool but if he does it for too long, he short-circuits himself and becomes a total dud!" Jiro inserted.
"Hey! Shut up Jiro!" Kaminari yelled feeling embarrassed.
Although, the purple haired female ignored him and brought out her phone to show Nagisa, a video of dead-brained Kaminari giving double thumbs up while saying "Yay".
Nagisa stifled a laugh.
"IT'S NOT FUNNY! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING JIRO!? CUT IT OUT!" Kaminari shouted, completely infuriated. Jiro just snickered.
"Anyway, both my hero name and my quirk is Earphone Jack," Jiro said as she held up her retractable jack shaped earlobes, "It allows me to plug these babies into objects to listen to sounds or to blast the sound of my own heartbeat which is capable of reaching explosive levels!"
"Super cool!" Nagisa chimed.
"Allow me to demonstrate," she said as she allowed one of them to attach to Kaminari and buzzed him as he let out a loud shriek.
"Wow!" Nagisa chimed again.
"NO! NOT WOW! OW! VERY OW!" The blond screamed angrily.
Jiro snickered as everyone else began telling Nagisa their hero names and showing him their quirks. And just as the black haired girl said, Yaoyorozu and Iida eventually joined in too. Soon it was only Todoroki, Bakugo and Midoriya who hadn't had a turn yet.
Oh what's that? What about Mineta? Yeah, Sero had told Nagisa about him (hero name and quirk). The blunet didn't need a demonstration of his quirk Pop off though, seeing as he had experienced it firsthand.
Mineta just tried to pretend like Nagisa wasn't staring daggers at the back of his head.
Anyway, it was Todoroki's turn and the quiet teen didn't seem too bothered about doing it. What he was more concerned about was Nagisa himself. Why was there something off about the kid?
"My hero name is my first name, Shouto. My quirk is Half-Cold Half-Hot, which allows me to generate ice from my right side and fire from my left." He said, as he froze a chair in a block of ice before burning it, turning it into ashes.
Nagisa gaped in awe. Todoroki's quirk might just have been the coolest he's ever seen.
"Seriously!?" Iida yelled, "You do realize, someone is going to sit there later!?"
"Oops."
"Can you all stop saying 'oops' like it'll fix things!" The black haired teen shouted angrily.
"Calm down Iida," Yaoyorozu said, "I can replace the chair."
As the ponytailed female was doing just that, everyone else turned to Bakugo.
"What are you all staring at?" The blond growled.
"It's your turn to show Nagisa your quirk," Kaminari said.
"I didn't fucking agree to this shit, damn it!" Bakugo yelled, "Like hell I'll tell the brat my quirk let alone show him!"
"His quirk is Explosion, which gives the sweat on his hands the properties of nitroglycerin which he can detonate at will," Kirishima explained to Nagisa.
"DON'T FUCKING TELL HIM!"
"So basically what you're saying is that it's a safety hazard to shake hands with him." Nagisa tried to understand.
"Basically," The entire class responded.
"FUCK YOU, BASTARDS!"
Midoriya chuckled at the scene before smiling at how well Nagisa was getting along with everyone. But then it wasn't long before they all turned to him. That was right. It was now his turn to tell Nagisa his quirk.
"Alright Midoriya, you're up!" Ashido said.
The greenet nodded, "Ah right!" he turned to Nagisa, "My quirk is a strength enhancer. It pretty much boosts my strength and speed but if used incorrectly I can cause serious damage to my body."
Nagisa stared at Midoriya, in slight awe but begins contemplating his words.
He smiled though, "Sounds like an awesome quirk either way!"
"Thanks, I'd rather show it to you when we're having our training session, I don't want Iida to get mad at me because I broke something." Midoriya chuckled nervously.
"Excellent thinking, Midoriya," Iida nodded in approval as he adjusted his glasses. The others sweat dropped.
"That's fine by me," Nagisa smiled.
"So Nagisa-chan, where are you from?" Ashido asked.
"Yeah, and do you have a quirk too or not?" Hagakure added.
"Oh, um..." Nagisa grew weary, as a sweat traced down his head. His eyes darted to Midoriya as him and the greenet exchanged glances.
"If you don't want to tell them you don't have to..." Midoriya whispered. Nagisa thought about telling him but he wasn't sure about advertizing the idea of being from another world to everyone, "I think it's best if we don't tell them now." He eventually said.
Nagisa then turned to the others, "You see...um, I can't really remember how I got here."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Kaminari asked.
"Let me explain," Midoriya said. He then filled them in with on everything, excluding the part about the blunet being from another world and the person who brought him here in the first place.
"Okay," Yaoyorozu said, "So you found Nagisa-kun and brought him here where he's being taken care of until you can figure out where he came from?"
"That's right." Nagisa said, and he was happy that they bought the lie. They were all nice people (well again, most of them) but he wasn't sure how they'd react to his situation. He wanted to be as discrete as possible, especially so they wouldn't find out he was an assassin-in-training.
"Oh you poor thing!" Ashido said sadly.
"We've already told All Might, Aizawa-sensei and Mr. Principal so don't worry about it too much," Midoriya said, "In the meantime though, Nagisa's going to be an Honorary Student at UA High School and will be a part of our class."
"Really! That's awesome!" Uraraka chimed.
"We get to keep him!" Hagakure and Ashido squealed as they began hugging Nagisa.
"Please help me..." the blunet called out desperately.
The others sweat dropped.
The bell rang, catching everyone's attention. They all separated to pack their things and Nagisa walked up to Midoriya.
"So what's happening now?" He asked curiously.
"Well," Midoriya picked up his bag. "Apparently Class 1A is gonna have a quick training session!"
"Training session?"
"Yup!" Midoriya smiled. "Let's go!"
=| Ground Beta |=
After everyone had changed into their training uniforms, the gang made their way to Ground Beta, which they hadn't used to train for quite some time now. Waiting for them at the entrance was Aizawa. Nagisa was awestruck by the area. His eyes moved all over the place, taking in the scenery. Standing tall before them were several buildings and skyscrapers. It was like they we in an actual city.
"I can't believe you guys have a place like this on campus!" The blunet exclaimed, "Just how big is U.A?"
Midoriya chuckled, "Let's just say it's super big!" He turned back to the entrance of the training grounds. "This is known as Ground Beta. It was used during the entrance exam for the school. Though we haven't used it since then." He looked down at Nagisa and smiled, "I'm excited to find out what kind of training we're going to be doing!"
"I'm excited too! I get see actual heroes train! Like in comic books!" Nagisa eyes sparkled.
Midoriya smile widened, 'He really does remind me of myself.'
"Alright, listen up!" Everyone directed their attention to the shaggy haired man, standing lazily by the entrance. "Now I know you all usually don't have a training session out of the blue but today we decided you should. But if you don't feel like training then you don't have to..."
"Wait really?" Kaminari asked in surprise.
"Yeah, you can just go home for the day..."
"Alright!"
"But you can't come back tomorrow..."
"Eh?"
"Or ever..."
Everyone sweat dropped. So that was how it was...
"So before we begin, does anyone want to leave?" Aizawa asked as his eyes traced the class. They all remained silent. "Good. Then let's begin."
Nagisa stared at Aizawa bewilderedly. 'The teachers here are really something...'
"Here's what's going to happen, you're all going to split up into teams," The black haired man began, "Each team must retrieve flags that have been hidden all over the area. The team that has the most flags wins."
Sero nodded in understanding, "Seems simple enough."
"Also if you happen to run into other teams after finding a flag then the teams have to fight it out to determine who keeps the flag."
"I knew there was a catch..." Ashido whined.
"There's always a catch," Hagakure added.
"And before any of you get excited," Aizawa narrowed his eyes, "No serious injuries are allowed. You can only use your quirks to defend yourselves or attack if necessary. Understood?"
"Yes sir."
Nagisa stood next to Aizawa and watched as everyone split into teams of five.
The First Team was Midoriya, Uraraka, Asui, Iida and Kaminari. The Second Team was Todoroki, Yaoyorozu, Jiro, Tokoyami and Sero. The Third Team was Bakugo, Kirishima, Ashido, Hagakure and Ojiro. Finally, the Fourth Team was Aoyama, Koda, Sato, Shoji and Mineta.
"Alright guys! Let's do this!" Midoriya exclaimed to his team.
"Yeah!"
"Let's do our best everyone!" Yaoyorozu exclaimed to her team. They all nodded.
"I'm gonna crush anyone who gets in my way!" Bakugo growled, resembling more of a hungry beast than an aspiring hero.
"He does know what we're doing right?" Ashido asked with a raised eyebrow. Kirishima scratched the back of his head, "That's...just how he gets himself psyched."
"It kinda looks like he's getting psyched for murder..." Hagakure said. Ashido and Ojiro nodded their heads.
"You have forty-five minutes! Your time starts now!"
The four teams ran into the training grounds. Almost immediately they began searching for flags all over the city. Nagisa watched in awe as the teams moved all over the place. Watching them like this, reminded him off his class.
The First Team began searching on the east side of the city. Asui leaped from building to building. She looked around until her eyes spotted a red flag at the corner of a skyscraper. She jumped down to the ground and used her tongue to retrieve the flag.
"I got one!" She exclaimed to her group. They beamed.
"Great job Tsu-chan!" Uraraka chimed.
Kaminari caught up with the rest holding a flag in his hand, "I also got one!"
"I have retrieved two," Iida piped in, holding out two.
"Wow Iida, you found two?" Midoriya said.
"We're on a roll guys!" Uraraka chimed again.
"Looks like the First Team is doing well so far," Nagisa said. His eyes quickly directed to the Second Team, "Although they seem to be doing better."
And indeed, the Second Team was giving it there all. Todoroki had already retrieved three flags from the west side of the city. Yaoyorozu and Tokoyami found two flags each. Jiro had found three flags and Ojiro found four.
"Great job guys!" Yaoyorozu smiled, "At this rate we'll definitely win!"
The First Team sweat dropped.
"How did they find so many flags already?" Uraraka asked.
"C'mon guys! We have to work harder!" Midoriya said.
And with that, they went back to searching. The Third Team was also doing rather well, with Bakugo finding most of the flags. They had twenty-five so far. Oh, wait, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight...
"Wow guys we already have thirty-five flags!" Ashido exclaimed after counting their flags.
"Bakugo's really fired up isn't he?" Hagakure said as the blond came back with three more flags.
"Hello? Can you losers stop slacking! I might as well be in a team by myself!" Bakugo complained.
"Except that's not a team..." Ashido deadpanned.
"But he's right guys! Let's work harder and win this!" Kirishima exclaimed.
The Fourth Team had found nineteen flags. Mineta had finally recovered from his trauma and began looking around for a flag in between buildings while Aoyama and the others searched elsewhere. The purple haired teen had spotted Midoriya picking up a flag and alerting his group.
'This is my chance!' Mineta thought as he pulled out one of his hairballs and got ready to throw it at the greenet when a shadow loomed over him.
Mineta slowly turned around to see Bakugo standing behind him and with the palm of his hand sizzling. The purple haired teen began trembling at the sight of the blond.
"Oi! Deku! Hand over that flag!" Bakugo yelled at Midoriya. The greenet flinched when he heard his childhood friend from behind him.
"Kacchan..." Midoriya whispered as he turned to face the other.
"Give me the fucking flag and I'll only blow up half of your body!"
"WHAT!?"
"Hold on! That flag is mine!" Mineta shouted but kept quiet when Bakugo shot him a glare. Midoriya used that moment to escape and run back to his team.
"Oi! Get back here!" Bakugo ran after Midoriya and ignited his hand. He began blowing up parts of the building to slow the greenet down. Midoriya powered up. Green lightning surrounded his body increasing his speed and strength. He then dodged the building pieces that were falling on him. He then slid under a whole section of a building that tumbled down.
He paused to catch his breath before looking up to see Todoroki coming down on a long trail of ice. He shot out fire from his other hand which the greenet dodged at the last second and leaped unto a building.
Seemed Todoroki wanted the flag too. Midoriya turned back to see red and white haired male still following him with Bakugo not too far behind. Todoroki shot fire again and Bakugo blew up the building Midoriya was standing on.
Smoke covered the area where the three were. Nagisa kept his eyes on the cloud of smoke anticipating who would come out first.
"Midoriya!" Asui yelled out to the freckled teen. She was running on side of the building that just blew up. After several minutes, said greenet leaped from the smog and threw the flag towards the frog-like girl. She extended her tongue to catch it before they both jumped down.
Soon after, Bakugo and Todoroki came out of the smoke.
"Time's up!"
Everyone froze and turned to Aizawa and Nagisa who was walking behind him.
"Looks like you all did well or whatever, so let's see who won." Aizawa said.
The four teams gathered together, and gave their bags of flags. After counting them all, they had a clear winner.
"And the winner is..." Aizawa paused, "The Second Team."
"Alright!" Jiro exclaimed as she and the other's high-fived.
"Great job, you guys!" Uraraka told them. Midoriya nodded, "Yeah you did great! I guess even after fighting for that last flag we still lost."
"But it was fun, don't you think?" Asui asked.
"Yeah it was awesome!" Kaminari said.
"Great job Todoroki!" Midoriya went up to the red and white haired male. He smiled at him. "Thanks. You weren't too bad yourself."
Bakugo glared at both Midoriya and Todoroki. "Next time, I'll crush the both of you!"
Midoriya chuckled nervously.
"Izuku-san!" Nagisa ran up to the older teen, "You were amazing back there!"
"You really think so? Thank you!" Midoriya smiled.
"And not just Izuku-san! You were all amazing!" Nagisa chimed, "Especially you Bakugo-san!"
The blond raised his eyebrows at the younger boy before clicking his tongue and walking off.
"Alright people. You can all go change and then head to your next class," Aizawa dismissed them.
Everyone walked out of the training grounds. Midoriya told Nagisa that afterschool, they'd be heading to his house. From the distance, a dark figure watched as the young heroes left the area.
The school day finally came to an end, with Nagisa nearly suffocating from the hugs he received from Ashido and Hagakure just before they all left the school grounds.
—»
As Midoriya and Nagisa walked to the greenet's house, the blunet couldn't believe how different this world was from his own. He never imagined that other worlds even existed. The whole idea seemed too unreal to him, but here he was now, in a foreign place far from his home. He honestly didn't know how to feel or what to do. When Midoriya spoke about his mother, Nagisa couldn't help but think of his own. She had to be worried about him, since he just disappeared. What if she thought that he left her? How was she feeling right now? Was she lonely?
Nagisa sighed. While he was happy to have met Midoriya and the others, he still missed being in his own world, after all the final assassination couldn't happen if he wasn't there.
"Something on your mind?"
Nagisa looked up at Midoriya, noticing his worried expression. Nagisa gave a dry smile before replying, "Yeah, I'm just worried about my mum."
"Oh." the greenet gaze shifted, "She must be scared right now. Her son's nowhere to be found..." he said in sad tone, "well...in that world anyway."
"I just wish there was a way to contact her, or even one of my friends but..." Nagisa stopped in his tracks when he realized something. 'That's right! My phone!'
"Izuku-san!" Midoriya turned around to face the other. "What is it Nagisa?"
"I just remembered I had my phone on me when I got warped here!" The younger male piped.
Midoriya smiled. "Wait, seriously? That's great! Maybe you can see if it still works in this world!"
"Yeah, but just one problem..." Nagisa scratched his cheek sheepishly. "I also just remembered it was in my other pants and...they're still at U.A High...being washed..."
Midoriya's smile fell slightly. "Oh, well maybe Recovery Girl noticed and took it out..."
"I really hope so..."
"Don't worry about it Nagisa, we'll ask her tomorrow. It'll all work out," Midoriya smiled as his expression softened. "I promised that I'd help you get back to your world and stop whoever's behind you being here! So please count on me and everyone else too, okay?"
Nagisa stared up at Midoriya, a small smile slowly forming on his face.
"Okay. Thank you, Izuku-san!"
A few minutes later, they finally made it to Midoriya's house and they walked in. Midoriya and Nagisa took off their shoes by the door before entering the kitchen where they found a short, green haired woman preparing food.
"Kaa-san, I'm home!" Midoriya announced, "And I brought a visitor!"
Midoriya's mother turned around and smiled brightly at her son, "Izuku, sweetie! Welcome home!" she gave him a quick hug before turning to the blunet. "Oh so this is the person you saved yesterday!" she looked Nagisa up and down, "You never said they were a cute girl!"
Nagisa sweat dropped.
"No Kaa-san, you got it all wrong! Nagisa is a boy," Midoriya quickly corrected her.
His mother gasped and turned to the other teen, "Oh! I'm so sorry! I didn't realize!"
"It's alright really," Nagisa said, "It happens all the time!"
"I really am sorry though. I should've known my Izuku would never bring a girl home." She said so casually before whispering, "He's much too shy!"
"Kaa-san!" Midoriya protested with a heavy blush on his face.
She simply giggles.
"My name's Shiota Nagisa but please, just call me Nagisa." The blunet said as he bowed, "It's very nice to meet you ma'am! Sorry for the intrusion!"
"Oh it's not a problem really! Any friend of my baby is welcome here," she chimed, "I'm Midoriya Inko! It's nice to meet you too, Nagisa. Please make yourself at home!"
"Thank you!"
"Izuku, show Nagisa the spare bedroom please and then you two come and eat dinner!" Inko instructed. Midoriya nodded as he and Nagisa left the kitchen.
When they reached the spare bedroom, Nagisa entered and took a look around. It was a simple room, with a window on the side and blue curtains over it. The walls were all a cream color and the ceiling was white, reminding him of when he first woke up in the infirmary back at the school. The bed was medium sized and it was dressed with blue and white sheets and a navy blue blanket with a single pillow resting at its head.
There was cupboard at the far corner and a bedside table with a lamp. It wasn't much but he was sure that he'd sleep fine that night.
The Midoriyas seemed like nice people, they took him in without hesitation. Sure they both thought he was a girl but that aside, they were still concerned about his wellbeing. Although, from the looks of it didn't seem like Midoriya's father was around. He wondered if they didn't live together like his own father. Maybe he'd ask the greenet later.
'No, it's not my place to ask a question like that.' Nagisa thought. He heard footsteps approaching the room and looked up to see Midoriya.
"Nagisa, it's time for dinner!" He said, "When we're done I'll give you some of my old clothes so you have something to wear to sleep!"
"Ah, thanks." Nagisa replied. "I'll be there in a minute!"
"Okay!" And with that, Midoriya left the room.
Nagisa got off the bed and stretched his arms. As he was about to leave, he felt an unnatural presence in the room and chill down his spine.
He quickly spun around to see if something was behind him but...
...Nothing was there. Nothing but the blue curtains, flowing mindlessly in the wind that came in from the opened window.
But...the window was just closed. He never opened it.
