"For now, I'm just glad that we were able to bring Class 1-A back together again." Aizawa Shota stood in front of the dorms along with his students as he spoke to them.

"Everyone was allowed to enter the dorms, huh?" Sero questioned rhetorically with a grin.

"I had a hard time!" Hagakure slouched as she remembered the trouble it took to convince her parents.

"That's normal..." Jiro scratched the side of her cheek with a smile.

"The two of you were directly affected by the gas." Ojiro reasoned.

"We were all able to be together again because of the teachers." Asui looked a bit thoughtful. "When I watched the press conference, I thought we'd lose them, and it made me sad."

"Mhm," Uraraka agreed with a nod.

"I was surprised, too." Aizawa admitted. "Well, I'm sure everyone has different circumstances. Now, I'll explain briefly about the dorms, but first--"

He was cut off at the sight of three people walking up to the Class 1-A dorm where they were standing. Honestly, he was sure whether or not to be surprised at the sight.

"Mi-chan!" The shy girl, who had her shoulders scrunched up anxiously, let out a yelp as she was tackled to the ground in a hug by Ashido, Hagakure, and Uraraka. The three girls were obviously excited to see her finally out of the hospital.

"Ahaha, you may want to go a bit easy on her." The class looked at Detective Naomasa in confusion as he smiled at them. The first year students weren't sure why he would be there. "She's still a bit injured after all."

"Gah!" The three girls jumped off of Masami as they finally took in her bandage covered body. "We're so sorry!"

"D-don't worry about i-it," Masami waved them off with a nervous smile. She still wasn't sure how she was supposed to act.

"What happened?" The rest of the class headed over to greet the girl as the third person, or creature unknown, otherwise known as Nezu, went over to Aizawa with Detective Naomasa. They still had certain matters to discuss.

"O-oh, um..." Masami struggled to find an answer that wouldn't be a complete lie. "I-I sort of, kind of, m-may have got i-into a fight."

".... EH??" She nearly shrank into herself at the sudden loudness.

"But, you're like the most shy and peaceful person we know!" Ashido, while she had gotten off of Masami, still stayed quite close.

"I mean, yeah, you're strong, but..." Ojiro trailed off.

"I can't really see you getting into a fight." Sero ended.

"Haah?" Everyone looked towards Bakugo as he stepped forward and placed an arm around Masami''s neck. "What are you idiots talking about? The damn weakling is the one person I wouldn't be surprised to find picking a fight. After all, she's picking fights with me all the time!"

"Haah?! What do you mean, picking fights with you?" Masami gained a bit more confidence as the two began headbutting each other after Bakugo removed his arm. "You're the one that's always picking fights! Right, Izu-kun?!"

The green haired boy looked at her in surprise as the attention shifted to him. He seemed to be a bit flustered as he tried to find an answer that wouldn't get him killed.

"A-ah, well, I mean--" His stare shifted between the two nervously. "I would say that you both challenged each other equally when we were younger. But now, Kacchan has a tendency to challenge you more as you've grown a bit timid."

"Hmm, fair enough." Masami reasoned as she recognized Midoriya's opinion to be true enough.

Meanwhile, the rest of the class looked at the normally timid girl in surprise. They had never seen this side of her. Then again, her and Bakugo had generally stayed out of each other's way at the training camp, so they didn't know their relationship as rivals.

The two continued to argue before they were finally pulled apart by Kirishima and Todoroki. Todoroki had pulled Masami away while Kirishima had pulled Bakugo away.

"Alright, that's enough." Kirishima grinned as he ended the argument.

"S-sorry about that..." Masami blushed and hid her face as she finally realized what she had just done. Though, she jumped a bit when Todoroki placed a hand on her head.

"Don't worry about it," He smirked a little bit at her embarrassment. He was actually a little glad that she was starting to show her true self a little bit more. However, he was a bit irked that it was Bakugo who made her act that way.

"Yeah," Uraraka giggled a little. "It was interesting seeing you get so fired up!"

"Mhm!" Kirishima agreed with a nod. "It was really manly!"

"I've never seen someone fight and banter with Bakugo so easily," Another person commented.

With each comment, Masami grew more and more embarrassed. She couldn't believe that she was provoked so easily! The fact that Todoroki was still holding her didn't help her embarrassment.

"I've been meaning to ask," Masami looked up as Asui grabbed their attention. "And I don't mean to sound rude, but why were you brought here by the principal and detective?"

"O-oh, um, I-I'm actually going to b-be joining Class 1-A starting this s-semester." The former vigilante informed her friends a bit nervously as she shuffled a bit in place. "A-and Detective N-Naomasa and P-Principal Nezu had to escort m-me here for certain reasons. Th-though, that's really a story f-for another time..."

“Wait, really?!” A few of them cheered. Some looked a bit suspicious. Others looked understanding.

“So, you’re really transferring to the Hero Course?!” Ashido was one of the ones that cheered and was starting to get a bit too close for Masami’s liking.

“M-mhm,” Masami nodded with a slight smile. She was glad that they weren’t taking the news poorly or demanding that she join another class.

Now, that would have been awkward…

Meanwhile, on the side of the two teachers and the detective, they were discussing Masami as well.

“Is there any certain reason that the three of you have come here?” Fortunately, Aizawa seemed to be bit calmer than he had been at the hospital and wasn’t nearly as tense. He had already had time to think about everything, and he was honestly glad that Masami had come to where he was. He felt that it would be a bit awkward if he had gone back to the hospital after walking out like that. Though, he did feel a bit bad considering Masami was already struggling with her self esteem.

“Well, Hideyoshi-san was released without any problem like we expected,” Naomasa took a small glance at the girl who was now being surrounded by Aizawa’s class. “But the police and government are requiring that she be under the careful watch of the pro heroes.”

“So, it’s been decided that, at least for the time being, she’ll be placed in your class.” Nezu chirped up.

“Is there a reason that she couldn’t stay in General Studies?” Aizawa raised a brow. He didn’t particularly mind Masami being in his class. She was a good student after all, but she would still be under the watch of heroes even if she had stayed in General Studies. She seemed to enjoy being in the General Studies anyways. After all, she had already declined a spot in the Heroes Course before

“About that…” Both Naomasa and Nezu sweat dropped a bit as they remembered the conversation they had with some members of the government. “With All Might retiring, the government isn’t too keen on having Shirokage retire at the same time. In their opinion, while All Might is a Symbol of Peace among the people, Hideyoshi-san is a Symbol of Fear for the villains.”

“With Masami’s permission, they plan on revealing to the public that Shirokage will be becoming a hero in the near future.” Nezu went on to entail their motives. “They hope that this will deter at least some crime rates. Which, it may actually work out in our favor as Masami will be given a greater chance to do her work instead of being restricted to the shadows as she’s been doing. Though, her identity as Shirokage will be kept a secret until she deems fit to tell the public herself.”

“So, she's basically being ordered by the government to become a hero?” If Masami didn’t want to be a hero, Aizawa was for sure going to try and find a way to get her out of it. But if she was okay with it… He supposed that there wasn’t any need to interfere.

“To be honest, she seemed quite excited about it despite her usual stuttering and shyness about everything.” They all took a glance at the girl this time only to sweat drop at the sight of her headbutting Bakugo, but they didn’t bother commenting. They already knew that the two were childhood friends and rivals, so it probably wasn’t anything serious.

“Masami’s wanted to be a hero ever since she was young. Even when she really did believe herself to be quirkless.” Nezu tried to reassure the scruffy man. “A couple days ago, she admitted that the only reason she didn’t want to be in the Heroes Course was because she didn’t believe she deserved it.”

“You can always count on her to put herself down…” Aizawa sighed as he placed a hand to his face in exasperation.

“We hope that being in this class will raise her confidence at least a little bit.” Nezu admitted to another one of the reasons they were placing her in the class. “Besides, I think it’s about time that you two get rid of the tension that’s formed between you. You may not be able to tell right now, but Masami’s been worrying and stressing over your reaction all week.”

Aizawa, admittedly, felt a bit regretful upon hearing that. He hadn’t meant to stress the girl. He simply needed time to think things over. After all, he had never been a father before. Thus, he had no idea what he was supposed to do now that he had found out that he was one. Was he supposed to act differently? Maybe a bit nicer? Was he supposed to buy her stuff or help her out with homework? He had no clue. While he would never admit it, he had actually gone to his friend, Hizashi’s, for advice. While the loud hero didn’t have any parenting experience, he was able to help at least a little.

“I don’t know how much I’ll be able to do...” The man reluctantly admitted. “But I’ll try my best.”

He knew that all he could do was try.
