~ Chapter 60 ~
As November neared its end...
"We're going to take care of her here at U.A. along with Blue." Aizawa said as Hado was ponytailing Eri's hair.
"I didn't think I'd be able to see her again so soon for so long!" Izuku exclaimed in shock.
"This is great! We are so gonna have fun, Eri and Blue!" Y/N exclaimed in excitement, hugging Eri who hugs back.
Anjali and Blue are playing a tug of war on Mr. Carrot.
"Hey." Eijiro greeted, kneeling down to her level with a wave.
"Oh, yay, it's Eri!" Ochaco smiled.
"You remind me of my little sister." Tsu said. "Welcome."
"Thank you." Eri smiled at everyone and Y/N.
"How did this come about...?"
"She couldn't stay at the hospital forever." Aizawa said, pointing for everyone to go outside including the third years as he continue to explain. "It looks like Eri was abandoned by her parents. And the head of the Shie Hassaikai, who's related to her by blood, has been in coma for a long time, so she currently has nowhere to go."
"And, you might've already heard from Mr. Aizawa, but the horn that Eri's Quirk is released from..."
"Yes, I heard that it'd gotten smaller and was fine now..." Eijiro said.
"It's starting to get bigger again slowly." Mirio said.
"Then, in order to keep that from happening again...?" Ochaco started.
"That's how it is." Aizawa said. "So that's why we're taking care of her instead of sending her to an orphanage. We'll watch her in the teachers' dorm. We'll see how she is and help her find a way to live with that great power. There are things we need to check, too... Anyway, we'll take things step by step."
"That sounds like a lot of work for you, Mr. Aizawa." Tsu stated.
Mirio raised a hand.
"That's where I come in! I'm on a temporary absence from school, and I'm friends with Eri! I'm sure you're all busy, but stop by and visit sometime."
"Of course!" Eijiro, Y/N, Izuku, Ochaco, and Tsu nodded.
"Sorry to be asking this of you already, third year, but can you take care of her for a while?"
"Roger! Let's play Othello!"
"Can we join you?" Izuku asked.
"Class A, go back to the dorm. You have guests arriving soon."

"Achoo!" Fumikage sneezed, nearly dropping the egg in his hand.
"You sick, Fumikage? Are you okay?" Y/N asked.
"No, I'm in good health. My mucus membrane was just doing its job."
"Huh. How's the egg?"
"Doing fine. The crack is getting bigger at any minute."
"The birth will come soon. I can't wait to see it."
"Yeah. I'm interested to see this dinosaur."
"How's your egg, Shoto?" Y/N asked, looking over to him.
"Good." Shoto nodded, holding the egg with a blanket wrapped around it.
The door was knocked and Tenya immediately went over to the door.
"They're here everyone! Greet them!"
"Lock on with these sparkling gazes!"
"We've come to lend a paw and help!!"
"Coming out of nowhere..."
"Stingingly cute and catlike!"
"Wild, Wild...Pussycats!"
The four heroes posed.
"Pussycats! Long time no see!" Tenya bowed as Mina and Toru ran over to get the pastries Tiger brought for everyone.
"You kitties look like you've been doing well!" Pixie-Bob grinned.
Tiger turned to Katsuki and Y/N.
"Sorry I couldn't protect you two to the end back then."
"Don't keep digging up the past." Katsuki looked away.
"There's no need to apologize. We're good." Y/N assured him.
"We're fine. Right?" Kyoka said, looking over at the girls.
"Paw pad buns! Paw pad buns!"
"Please, come inside." Mezo offered.
"Oh, don't worry about us." Mandalay waved her hands.
"We need to go visit Class B, too." Tiger said.
Y/N looked behind to reveal Kota with the usual grumpy look.
"Hey, Kota!"
She kneel down to his level who flinched.
"Hi.... Y/N..."
"I haven't seen you in a while! How are you? How's your two dinosaurs doing?"
"They're doing fine. I-I'm good..."
Kota looked away, twisting his foot around as he had something behind his back.
"He was excited to see you especially Y/N! He even brought you something so cute!" Ragdoll squealed.
"H-Hey!"
"Go on, Kota. Show her." Mandalay assured him.
Kota blushed in embarrassment and closed his eyes and held out two small yellow flowers.
"Oh? For me?"
"Yes. As a thank you for saving me and my buddy."
Y/N smiled fondly and took the flowers from his hand. She patted his head.
"That's really sweet of you. Thank you."
Kota nodded, looking away when he felt something wet on his cheek and turned to see Anjali who licked his cheek with her tail wagging.
"Looks like she remembers you." she giggled.
"Kota! Long time no see!" Izuku greeted with a smile. "Thanks for your letter! I'll treasure it forever!"
"Whatever."
"Y/N, Midoriya, look." Mandalay pointed at something.
They turned to see red shoes just like Izuku's.
"He chose them himself. He said he definitely wanted red."
Kota screamed in fright, waving his hands to block them from seeing it.
"N-No...!"
"We match!" Izuku just smiled.
"Oh? Is that a Jurassic Park clip on your hat?"
Y/N pointed at the logo of a T-Rex in the middle of Kota's hat between the golden horns. Kota blushed and hugged Y/N's legs to cover his face.
"He thought it would look cool on him since it remind him of you." Mandalay smiled.
Y/N chuckled with a smile, causing him to hug her leg tighter. Rikido walked in with cups of tea.
"But why are you back at U.A.?"
"We came to let you know we're in business again." Pixie-Bob said.
"You are?" Tenya asked in surprise.
"Congratulations!" Momo clapped her hands with a smile.
"Ragdoll, you're working again? I thought your Quirk was stolen, so you were suspending activities--"
"It's not back! I'll be doing office worm to support the other three. Office Lady Cat!"
"We received a report from Tartarus, though. They're still trying to pin down just how many and what kind of Quirks he's hiding... Currently, not letting him do anything is the only way we can contain him." Pixie-Bob mentioned.
"Then why are you starting up again at this time?" Momo asked.
"This will be announced later, but for the Japanese Hero Billboard Chart, we were ranked 411 for the second half of the year." Mandalay said.
"That low?" Y/N questioned in confusion.
"Last time, you guys were ranked 32." Izuku mentioned.
"I see! It's because you dropped in the rankings! Do your best!" Eijiro said.
"No, meow!" Ragdoll said. "How are we still in the three digits even though we haven't done any hero work?"
Eijiro, Y/N, and Izuku look at each other.
"The approval rating component gave us a boost." Tiger said.
"There are people waiting for us." Pixie-Bob added.
"We can't just stand still!"
"Is that how it is? You're so manly, Wild Wild Pussycats!"
"You're embarrassing..." Y/N grumbled.
"You're being too loud." Denki sighed.
"Speaking of which, they haven't announced results for the second half of the year yet, huh?" Mina mentioned.
"A lot has happened." Fumikage said.
"A billboard chart without All Might, huh? I can't wait to see how the rankings ended up."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Y/N is outside of U.A. building as she's taking a walk at night. She was allowed to go and had to at least be back on time and not too late. Meanwhile, in the sky, a man of average height with a slim and narrow build. He himself has pointed out that his back muscles are not broad enough. He has feathery ash blonde hair swept messily backward with some of the front tufts sticking up in arcs above his head, notably thick eyelashes, and some faint stubble on his chin.
His eyes are gold-brown and rather triangular in shape, with two little black triangles just below his tear ducts, making his eyes somewhat resemble those of a bird. The marks around his eyes are naturally innate. His Quirk grants him a set of large bright red wings with feathers that gradually lengthen the further down they go.
He wears a black shirt with a wavy golden pattern like a ripple in a pond, over which he has a tan jacket with a high collar, the insides and cuffs of the sleeves lined with white fur, and black gloves. He has a square-shaped lobe piercing in each ear, although these are rarely visible as he usually wears a pair of yellow headphones over them. His headphones most likely have protection purposes, since the velocities in which he moves are capable of damaging eardrums beyond repair. He has a rounded, yellow-tinted visor on his eyes and his jacket is specially modified, with two large slits over his shoulder blades to accommodate his wings.
The man was flying for some fresh air when his eyes landed on the figure of the person walking alone as it appears to be Y/N. He decided to go and check on her to see if she's okay.
Y/N looked up at the sky as she was having some thoughts about the future when she felt a presence behind her. She turned to see some big muscle punk with a purple headband and a dragon tatoo with a gun in his hand as he pointed at her head.
"Aren't you a pretty one? Come with me so we could have some fun~"
"Ew. No."
Y/N brought out her claws, ready to fight him. Suddenly, the red blurrs that looked like feathers zoom down towards that man and hit him staight in the back, causing him to collapse and lay there. She looked up to see a blonde man with red wings as land in front of her.
"You alright there, lady? That man sure is trouble."
"I'm fine and I can handle myself. But thanks, I guess. Who are you?"
"I'm Hawks." he smiled. "I'm sure you've heard about me."
"Actually, no. And now I have to go back to the dorms before my teacher kills me. Thanks for the help."
Y/N goes to leave when Hawks went in front of her.
"At least, let me walk you there. It's dangerous for you to go alone."
"I think I can handle it alone, thank you."
Y/N slightly pushed him away and move his wing up for her to go through.
"Can you tell me your name?"
"...Y/N."
"Ah, you're the Dinosaur Whisper. The Indoraptor, was it? You sure do look pretty cute in person. I kinda wish you would intern with me, but you choose to the dragoon hero. Dragon and dinosaur are alike."
"I don't know if it's a compliment or I should feel offended, but now, I need to go."
She was about to leave completely when she was stopped by the three punks with a same dragon tatoo. The one with sunglasses must be the leader and he looked unhappy.
The man looked down to see his goon down with red feathers on his back as the red feathers flew back to Hawks' wings.
"You dare hurt my member? You're going to regret that! Purple Dragons, attack!"
The two Purple Dragons charged Y/N and Hawks as they got into their fighting stance. One with the mustache and a sledge hammer charged Hawks while the other one with a butcher knife charged Y/N. Hawks moved away from the hammer and jumped and kicked him in the chest and then his face, causing the punk to spin around and almost slam into the wall as he caught himself. He growled and charged him again with the hammer raised up and a war cry. Hawks dodged every swing from the hammer as it slammed the ground a couple of times before he gave the mustache man a hard flick to the nose. He covered his nose in pain after he was slammed against the wall.
Meanwhile, Y/N and the skinny boy circled around each other. They had a staring contest as Y/N ushered him to come at her. He glared and raised his butcher knife when she knocked the knife away from his hand and gave him a punch in the chest and flickered him in the chin. He looked at her and gulped when Y/N gave him the intimidating glare and roundhouse kicked him towards the wall with the mustache man. Hawks was impressed with her fighting skills before they turned to the sunglasses man as he stood there.
"My name is Hun. And you'll pay for it. Hiyoo!!"
Hun got into his martial art fighting stance with his spiked rings out. Hawks threw one of his feathers towards him when Hun caught it. Hawks was surprised and shock that he just do that as Hun threw it back to him as he quickly caught his own feather. He charged them as Y/N charged him back and goes to kick him when he ducked from it. Y/N landed gracefully and turned back when Hun charges Hawks as he tried to evade his attack by shooting out more feathers, but he dodged every one of them like it was nothing and caught one and then kicked him straight in the face. Hawks grunted from the impact, holding his face.
Y/N growled and charged Hun again when he turned to her and punched her a couple of times in her chest, causing her to fly back. Hawks glared at Hun and brought out his feather blades like swords and starts swinging at Hun. Hun dodged it and swiped him in the face, kicked his chest, and karate chopped his back after he lean down in pain from the kick. He then grabbed Hawks and threw him towards the wall. Hun was about to leave when Y/N came in front of him and swiftly tripped him with her tail, causing him to fall. She caught him by the collar of his shirt.
"Don't think you're the only one who knows martial arts. I also know ninjutsu."
She puts him down and pushed him a couple of feet apart as Hun was now feeling scared what she was going to do since she won't stop giving him the intimidating glare in her red glowing eyes. Y/N turned and turned, coming closer to Hun and then gave him a good kick right between his legs.
"I call that one the Dragon's Tail." Y/N smirked.
Hun gave a loud squeal and held his private area, falling to his knees and collapsed on the floor. Hawks who was leaning against the wall was even more impressed and started to like her.
"Nice kick, Y/N."
Y/N came over to his aid and helped him up.
"You alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I never expect someone like him to actually manage to give me a hit."
"Well, some villains can be very well trained. Not all villains are that predictable."
"I'll keep that in mind. Looks like you can handle yourself."
Y/N turned to the down Purple Dragons.
"Don't worry. I already call the cops while you were fighting him."
Y/N gave Hawks a smile, causing him to blush.
"Thanks again. It's been fun. See you later, Hawks." she said, giving him a wave as she walk away.
"See you, Y/N."
Sirens were heard as Y/N kept walking and made it back to the dorms safely and on time as Aizawa stood there in the entrance of the gate.
"How's your walk?"
"It's fine. I've had some interesting night."
"And what happen to you?" Aizawa said, pointing at some slight bruise on her face and arms.
"It's nothing. I'm fine. Got some help. Good night, Aizawa."
Y/N headed inside the dorms to her room with Anjali who's sleeping by her side.
