As I got out of the train station, I naturally followed the directions I had memorised on the train ride. I continued forwards, passing under a train bridge and crossing the road to the other side. The agency wasn't far from the station, I just needed to keep going forward until the second crossing where I turn left. After turning left, I continued until I reached the end of the street. Right beside me was the Nighteye Agency. I gazed up, observing the outside of the agency.

"Woah..." I whispered to myself as the Nighteye Agency towered over me. Something about this just felt intimidating – I'm going to be stepping into the agency of All Might's former sidekick. Crap, that's what I forgot... I forgot to tell All Might.

I mentally counted the tiers of windows, noting that the building was four floors tall. It's not much but still is very tall for just four floors, plus the ground level too. I blinked again, refocusing back onto the door in front of me. I walked closer to the door and pushed it open, letting a breeze of air conditioning cool my warmth. I let the glass door gently close behind me – I had to take this all in. But it was very easy, the ground floor was very bare. The main piece that caught my attention was a spiral staircase that led upwards to the next floor above. It fascinated me. I wonder if they have an elevator.

I shifted my attention towards the desk that was over to the side. I noticed a lady with light blue bubblegum skin and dark blue hair. As I looked over at her, she gave me a warm smile and stood up from her chair.

"You must be here for the internship. Right, Kimura Miku?" She asked, looking down at the paper in her grasp. I nodded with a small smile, as she held the clipboard to her chest. "It's nice to meet you Kimura-san, I'm Bubble Girl, one of Sir Nighteye's sidekicks."

Bubble Girl held out her hand. Quickly, I walk towards her and gratefully shook her hand. "Nice to meet you Bubble Girl." I replied.

"I'll take you to Sir Nighteye." She stated, as she led me around towards the spiralling staircase. We started to ascend up the stairs, before she turned her head to look at me over her shoulder, "I watched you during the sports festival and you were pretty amazing out there."

"Thank you very much." I replied, my grip on my hero costume suitcase tighten.

A wave of concern crashed onto me; for some reason, I felt a sudden pressure about my abilities. I had always been doubtful about my abilities, but now, is it enough to be a hero? It was like, after the sports festival, there was a certain expectation that comes with that. Maybe it's just all in my head.

After walking up the spiralling stairs to the first floor, she led me through the corridor. We were at one of the sides of the building – an outstretched glass window was to our right. I noticed a little sofa in the corner,  with a vending machine next to it. But, I changed my focus and we took a left into another hall with a door at the end. Definitely going into Sir Nighteye's office. I followed intently behind her, watching her knock on the door.

"Come in." A deep male voice answered back through the door. Bubble Girl opened the door gently and walked inside, with me just behind her. 

Walking in, I took a quick glimpse around the room. Wait what..?  T-There's so much All Might—  The first thing I saw was the smiling All Might poster staring towards the door. As I trailed behind Bubble Girl, I could see another All Might poster. Even his former sidekick has posters, just like Midoriya. It made the bare and dull office pop with colour. Wait, there's even a cardboard cutout of him?! Books too— Okay, he's a hardcore fan.

But, if he's such a big fan, why is he no longer in touch with All Might?

"Hello Sir, I have the intern here." She presented, as I looked to see the man himself, sitting at his desk and staring at his laptop screen.
