the next day
Izuku: "i need to stop sleeping" as he wakes up again...after his little outburst....he tried to move...but he felt a huge weight on him...
Izuku: "hmm?" and he looks to see Nejire there with him...snuggled close...thats right...he had that...that breakdown...
Momiji: "hey you...your finally awake hehe" seeing her sharpening a masakari...well..his Masakari...as she sets it back down...
Momiji: "i forget on how heavy your Masakari..since the handle is mainly medal"
Izuku: "what happened?"
Momiji: "You had a little outburst...but...Nejire managed to calm you down...you were only out for a few hours...so i watched over in case anything else happens"
Izuku: "I see...i'm...sorry"
Momiji: "it's alright....you know thats how my reaction was when i went out to patrol with Okuma...during his days as a pro hero"
Izuku: "really?"
Momiji: "Yeah...during that time i didn't have a name for myself...as i kept on taking on villains here and there...it got so bad they named me...the Hitokiri..or man slayer to be specific...from how my quirk along with my skills would be death walking upon the living...i learned to accept the name and own up to it...just how Okuma called himself Shugoki...the demon guardian...he will protect for he is the iron wall that blocks the way...the Mountain...that could never kneel down to his opponent"
Izuku: "pretty awesome"
Momiji: "I know right?"
Izuku: "i missed these talks Momi"
Momiji: "I missed them too...but...we all have a time to move on with our lives...doesn't mean we'll forget the ties that have been made..." as Izuku tried to get up Nejire clings to him tighter...not wanting him to move
Izuku: "what am i going to do with you?" smiling as he holds her close now...
Momiji: "shes a bit clingy isn't she?"
Izuku: "well...I love her...and its one of the many things i adore about her"
Momiji: "Glad you think that way...most boys would be a bit annoyed by it"
Izuku: "i didn't get much attention before i lived with you guys so i say bring it on" getting a laugh out of her
Momiji: "Never change kid" ruffling his hair
Izuku: "your lucky she's on me otherwise"
Momiji: "you know you can't"
Izuku: "hmph!...but...at least it's nice" then the door knocks
Aizawa: "So...you've met them"
Izuku: "yes"
Aizawa: "alright...get your gear on...we're going to have a meeting soon...and by that i mean get up"
Izuku: "sure" as he tries to get up
Nejire: "mmo!" muffling on his shirt...Izuku sits up now picking her up
Momiji: "hehe...gonna take her into the meeting?"
Izuku: "don't now...might want to mess with them for a bit"
Nejire: "zuzu...just a few more minutes" as Izuku gently sets her down
Izuku: "I know...but i'll be back okay?"
Nejire: "promise" giving him the pleading stare
Izuku leans down to kiss her: "I promise"
Nejire: "hehe...okay" laying on his bed now...she tries to get some shut eye...and he leaves from there...
Momiji: "I'll watch her"
Izuku: "you don't need to"
Momiji: "come on...I want to chat with my potential little sister"
Izuku: "don't..."
Momiji: "come on..you know you thought of it"
Izuku: "i'd rather keep focused"
Momiji: "so that's a no"
Izuku: "I didn't mean that" and he walks off trying to avoid this conversation before it gets worse for him...
Momiji: "oh i love teasing him"Midnight: "so...what now?"
Nezu: "*sip* we're waiting on both Izuku and someone special"
Aizawa: 'great'
Izuku: "I'm here" as he enters now...
Nezu: "welcome back Izuku...come take a seat"
Aizawa: "and be quiet" as he sits down setting the Masakari aside and the Kanobo...and his chakrams...as the loud rattle of the chains hitting the table wasn't making things awkward he then brings out his whetstone and started to sharpen the chakrams..making more sounds
Midnight just covers her mouth...trying to hide the smirk growing on her face...as she looks to Aizawa who's eyebrow was seen twitching...and he looked very very annoyed...Present mic though was very vocal though
PM: "I love it" now the door opens to Okuma entering
Midnight: "woah"
Powerloader: "great you brought him back?"
Okuma: "good to see you as well Powerloader...Shota...nezu" as Izuku can see him cautiously look at the Chimera then took a seat...which made a huge rumble as he sees the others flinching
Midnight: "damn...pity any woman who sleeps with him" and Okuma just ignores it
Nezu: "now then....i would like to present to say from me to the rest of the staff...welcome back Okuma...for the time being"
Okuma: "flattered" monotone about it
Aizawa: "can we get on with it"
Nezu: "right..now...I'm sure you have some questions on why your summoned here"
Okuma: "You forced my pupil to come here on what basically is blackmail"
Nezu: "hmhm...right you are...but that's something we can discuss on another time...so...the reason you are here it's because we have a small shortage in the upcoming final exams....and we want you as a former pro hero...to be one of those individuals to test the students"
Izuku: "what?"
Okuma scoffs hearing this
Nezu: "Of course if you don't i may resort to other things you may or may not agree with" which set Izuku off hearing him slam the table
Izuku: "You think he would agree to something like that!"
Midnight: "Kid"
Izuku: "...he is retired...i am the one who will carry on the guardian name...just because you have me bound down i will let you make him do this"
Okuma: "i'll do it" which made him stop
Izuku: "But...they"
Okuma: "I'll do it...no other choice...and i rather have my prodigy here continue with his training..."
nezu; "glad we have a mutual agreement"
Izuku: "Damn it" growling out...as he just sits back down...
Okuma: "but i have one condition"
Nezu: "If it's reasonable"
Izuku: "You will let my other student work with Izuku here...when he tests the students"
Nezu: "I see...very well..i'll allow it"
Midnight: "but then again what is the plan for other events coming up...we have to ensure no villain is able to come to the forest field trip"
Nezu: "Which is why i had a request to have the wild wild pussycats to attend and lead the training routines and activities...this way not only we'll we have more heroes attend and protect the students...it'll take a load off our failing guardian"
Okuma: "watch your mouth Nezu"
Aizawa: "enough...no one is blaming anyone...nor failing...it was on the lack of moral integrity on the other pro heroes...Midoriya had faith in them..which isn't his fault...no one will be as selfless as him"
Okuma: "Nor skillful..."
Midnight: "Or handsome mmm~"
Izuku: "Y....Your creeping me out"
Nezu: "...hmm...alright then...so that's settled...before we conclude this small meeting...anything else?"
Powerloader: "...we have to discuss the setting and gyms...USJ is still under some construction but i think we could at least get the fake city, sea port, and the forest scenarios readied up...but i need your permission to inspect it for anything else that could be improved"
Nezu: "alright...Izuku, Okuma you are no longer needed at this meeting...you both are dismissed" and as Izuku just gets up and leaves...he slams the door behind him...which broke the glass on it...
Okuma: "*sigh*...I'll make sure he's there"
Nezu: "I know you will" and he leaves now...
Aizawa: 'so...bringing more people in to ensure he's not free nezu...you take that request from Yagi way to seriously'Ochako: "hmm"
Flashback
Izuku: "I GOT YOU!!" as she sees him saving the hero killer from falling into the fire below them
lida: "why...why isn't he letting that killer go!....he...he murdered my brother!" as he tried to break free from their grasp
Izumi: "No...dont' move!"
Ochako: "Please!"
lida: "he killed my brother...he deserves to die" crying out...
Izuku: "A life is a life...and it's worth protecting...even...even if they are evil...they deserve to be saved like everyone else...it's not too late to do the right thing!" hearing his bantering...as they had to leave when Gran told them to get out before they become fried meat...but she couldn't help but overhear one thing...
Stain: "Once they finally pin these deaths...all the things that happen...on you...blaming everything on you...they'll kill you for it..."
Flashback ends
Ochako: "the people will kill him?...why?"
Mina: "who will kill who?"
Ochako "bah!...oh...Mina...hey"
Mina: "Don't hey me...something on your mind?"
Ochako: "oh...well..."
Mina: "Is it the guardian?...ooh...you thinking about him?"
Ochako: "what?...no....it's just...i overheard something...and it's bothering me"
Mina: "well..i reckon any villain wants to kill him...since he's one of the only heroes that can legally take a life...which is scary honestly...even Endeavor has to hold back with his quirk"
Ochako: "well...could...could you keep it a secret?"
Mina: "well..depends on the secret"
Ochako then guides her to the roof...now getting to the top...she sits at the bench there...
Mina: "oookay...so why did we have to go up five flights of stairs?"
Ochako: "Okay Mina..please...please keep this a secret...at least i can get an understanding of what it means..."
Mina: "weeell...okay"
Ochako: "Swear!"
Mina: "wha...this isn't court!"
Ochako: "Swear" now more stern with her voice...
Mina: "alright alright...I Mina will not let this juicy info be let out for free"
Ochako: "I'm gonna take that as a yes...okay" trying to calm herself now
Mina: "..."
Ochako: "so..i managed to overhear something relating to the guardian" trying to embellish it...since she can't say she was at Hosu city during the attack
Mina listened
Ochako: "that he was battling the hero killer himself"
Mina: "isn't he the one who intern you?"
Ochako: "i" damn it she forgot about it
Ochako: "okay okay..please...keep it hidden...i was there with him...and he told me to stay back so he could avoid getting me hurt...but...as the building they both were on collapsed...he...he saved the hero killer"
Mina: "what?!...why did he do that?...didn't he like...kill a lot of heroes?"
Ochako: "well that's the thing...the hero killer said the same thing...why save someone like him...but...he said that a life is a life...and every single one deserves to have a chance to be saved"
MIna: "huh...guess he really has a neutral ground with that...but a bit hypocritical about how he judges who lives and dies"
Ochako: "well...i don't know the whole thing about him...but...he managed to save him and they fell off...but the last thing i heard the hero killer say to him...was that he is being used to have the blame pinned on him...and they'll kill him for it"
Mina: "what does that mean?"
Ochako: "I think....I think the hero killer meant that the heroes are just using him as a scapegoat...since villain activity have been at a record high since...well forever...and with all the chaos happening...they just want something to be cannon fodder"
Mina: "That's not right...we're supposed to be heroes...and...we're putting it on someone else?...who has the same ideals but does it differently?!...what?!"
Ochako: "I know...but..i don't know what to do...i can't talk to him about it...but i know...we have to keep this to ourselves...so he doesn't get into any trouble."
Jirou: "yeah and you thought it was a good idea to do that without checking for anyone else" as they both flinched seeing Jirou just sitting in the corner on her phone...
Mina: "oh crap"
