Chapter 53
The work studies and school went on as proceeded. It was now Friday night at the Endeavor Agency; they had just finished up on patrol when Endeavor received a phone call.
"Violet Gust," Endeavor said once the call ended.
"Hm?" Eva asked looking at him.
"Gang Orca is requesting you to join his team for tomorrow," Endeavor said.
"What about me?" Katsuki demanded. "I want to join! I'll take down anything lame lowlife villain!"
"Gang Orca specially asked specifically for Violet Gust," Endeavor answered; he looked at Eva. "He will be here in the morning to grab you. You will be representing the Endeavor Agency, so don't make a fool of yourself."
"Yes, sir," Eva nodded. After washing up, Eva got to her dorm room to see Katsuki in her bed reading a book. "Hello, Katsuki."
Katsuki looked up. "Being scouted by Gang Orca."
"If I remember, Jiro and Shoji are under him," said Eva sitting on the bed. "I am a bit nervous."
"That's dumb," said Katsuki. "You've been training under the number one, you'll do just fine big fish."
Eva smiled. "I like Gang Orca." Katsuki raised an eyebrow. " He puts a lot of work into protecting the ocean." He smiled as Eva scooted next to him. She looked at him. "Maybe they need audio help." She pointed at her ears. "Him and his work study students have heightened senses for hearing."
Katsuki put an arm around her, pulling her into him. "You are gonna kill it."

Eva looked outside the bus to see Endeavor, Shoto, Katsuki, and Izuku all staring at the bus. They seemed a little off that Eva was not going to be with them today for patrol.
as soon as Eva sat down the bus moved.
"Uh, Mr. Gang Orca, sir?" Eva asked. "What do--"
"Eva!" Kirishima greeted as he got out of his seat, he plopped next to her. He held out his arm. "I know you get motion sick easily."
Eva grabbed his arm. "You are appreciated." Kirishima looked back at the other group getting smaller.
"You'd think they were saying bye to you forever," laughed Kirishima.
Eva looked over at Gang Orca. "What is the mission, Gang Orca, sir?"
"This isn't a real mission," Gang Orca said. "With Recovery Lady busy at UA, Eraser suggested that we have you tag along."
"Hm?" Eva asked. On the way to their destination, it was explained to Eva that a baseball game was going on. "So, no playing?"
"No," denied Gang Orca. "You just tend to injuries." Eva nodded.

Eva was on the sidelines with Aizawa and Present Mic as the two teams began to face off. Gang Orca and Shishido had their heads slammed against each other, growling.
"Victory will belong to us," Gang Orca said. "The Orcas!"
"Yeah!" Team Orca cheered.
"You don't stand a chance!" Shishido growled. "Lionels forever!"
"Yeah!" Team Lionels cheered. They growled slamming heads against each other again.
"You knew you couldn't beat us so you called in for outside help!" Gang Orca said.
"As if you got room to judge me, fish breath!" Shishido snapped. "I see you padded your roster, too!"
"I pity you, Shishido," said Gang Orca. "You think yourself a ruler, but your kingdom is a joke."
"Shut it blowhole!" Shishido ordered. "A sardine outta water like you isn't even fit to be called my prey." The two teams walked away in annoyance.
"Should we do something?" Eva asked as she looked between both teams.
"It's like this every time they see each other," Fat Gum explained.
"Violet Gust!" Aizawa called; Eva looked over. "Come sit on the sidelines for now." Eva nodded; she flew over the fence; and then went to Amajiki who was facing the fence.
"Uh, Suneater?" Eva asked. "Is everything alright?"
"Why am I here?" Amajiki asked.
"It'll be fun," Eva assured.
"This is sure to end badly," Amajiki disagreed.
"The Orcas vs the Lionels!" Mic Present announced. "Which team is gonna rise to the occasion and win the game of the century? Present Mic here with color commentary. Backing me up is my cranky cohost, Eraserhead."
"Who signed me up for this?" Aizawa asked.
"First off, let's lay out the special rules for HLB games," Present Mic said.
"Are there different rules than with regular baseball?" Eva asked, looking over.
"Correct!" Present Mic shouted.
"Calm down," Aizawa groaned.
"Each team's made up of nine players. No substitutes are allowed during a game. Swapping positions and using pinch runners is totally allowed! If players can't play, oh well...The game won't skip a beat! If a batter is injured and can't swing, they're automatically considered out! Will we be seeing a neck-and-neck battle in the 9th inning? Or will one team forfeit for having no members left? Anything can happen during this epic fight to see who racks up the most runs."
"These rules are absurd," Aizawa commented.
'For others such as myself, this could be fun,' Eva thought to herself; she looked at Amajiki. 'I feel like I've lied to him.'
"Why am I cursed?" Amajiki cried to the fence. "All I want is to go home."
"The Orcas will start us out at bat!" Present Mic announced. "First up, their aquatic captain, Gang Orca! Pitching for the Lionels is Sugarman!" Shishida was the catcher.
"Hold back and you're dead meat!" Shishido threatened. "Throw like your life depends on it!" Sato ate a few sugar cubes, enhancing his strength.
"WOAH!" Present Mic cried. "That sweet, sweet sucrose is pumpin' through his veins!" Sato prepped. "It's a Quirk-enhanced first pitch!" He threw it toward home base. "Look at the spin! Incredible!" Gang Orca swung; connecting with the ball, and they watched it fly over their heads. "He knocked it out of the park! Textbook homer!" Sato was whimpering.
"We are going to run out of balls," said Aizawa as Gang Orca ran the bases. "I can feel it!"
"YOU MORON!" Shishido raged putting Sato over his shoulders; bending him. "Didn't I tell you that your life was at stake?"
"Yeah," Sato groaned in pain. "I can see that now."
"I need a new pitcher!" Shishido announced. Eva stared as Sato was at second base; KO'D, Ojiro looked over in concern as well. Shoda was now up to pitch; Kaminari was up to bat.
"After just one batter, the mound now belongs to Mines," Present Mic announced. "What kind of throws is he hiding up his sleeve?"
"Twin Impact," Shoda punched his glove; he threw the ball.
"Underhand!" Present Mic said. "Weak! What a letdown!"
"Heh," Kaminari smirked as he got ready to swing. "Too easy."
"And fire," Shoda said. The ball slammed into Shishida's mitt pushing him and the robot back.
"Strike One!" Umpire announced; Kaminari was bewildered; Shoda continued. "Strike two! Strike Three! You're out!"
"Three pitches whiz by and Chargebolt's dunzo!" Kaminari gloomily walked over to Gang Orca. "He wasn't even able to swing!"
"Penalty!" Gang Orca growled.
"But," Kaminari began. "There's no way I couldn't hit those throws."
Gang Orga grabbed Kaminari by the head before throwing him. "Penalty!" Eva flew up catching Kaminari.
"Next in the box, it's Tentacole," Present Mic announced as Eva landed on the sidelines.
"What is this?" Aizawa asked as Shoji held three bats.
"Rules don't limit the number of bats you can use!" Present Mic answered. Eva focused on Shoji.
'I'll cover the entire strike zone!' Shoji thought. 'The ball might change speeds, so my timing must be perfect.' Shoda got ready to pitch. 'It's my chance.'
"And fire," Shoda said as there was about the be a connection; the ball changed course
"Now that's what I call a curve ball!" Present Mic said. "It's impossible to hit!"
"Strike One!" Umpire said once the ball landed in Shishida's mitt. "Strike Two! Strike three! You're out!" Next up was Sero. "Strike One! Strike two! Strike three!"
"Three in a row!" Present Mic as Gang Orca put fear into Sero and Shoji. "What a sad start for the Orcas!"
"Penalty!" Orca shouted throwing Shoji, Eva flew over catching him. "Penalty!" She flew over catching Sero. As soon as Eva touched back down; the teams switched places. Shoji was now a catcher as Ojiro was up to bat with Kamui Woods as the pitcher.
"Bottom at the first and the Lionels are at bat," Present Mic said. "Tailman steps to the plate. Pitching for the Orcas is Kamui Woods. He winds up for the throw, and we're off!" Kamui threw the ball extending many branches. He captured Ojiro pulling away from the bat.
"Strike One!"
"Pre-emptive Binding Lacquered Chain Prison," Kamui announced.
"Is that even allowed?" Eva asked as tilted her head.
"Yes!" Present Mic confirmed giving a thumbs up.
"No fair!" Ojiro shouted as Kamui and Shoji played catch. Shishido growled; up next was Shishida who suffered the same fate as Ojiro. Kirishima and Tetsutesu backed away Shishido grew angrier.
"What're fools doing?" Shishido demanded slamming Ojiro and Shishida's heads together. "ASSUME YOU'LL BE RIPPED TO SHREDS IF YOU DON'T WIN THIS FIGHT!" Eva placed her hands on the boy's heads as Shishido stepped up to bat.
"He's tough on his players," Present Mic revealed. "Rumors have it he throws them off cliffs and makes them climb back up. Naturally, he's on bad terms with Gang Orca, the killer whale, the reigning king of marine life!"
"Yeah, that's putting it lightly," said Aizawa.
"Bring it!" Shishido growled.
"Lacuered Chain Prison!" Kamui said throwing the ball; Shishido smashed the wood with the bat.
"Your power's useless!" Shishido shouted. "See how it's done, rookie!"
"Shishido smashes Kamui Woods!" said Present Mic.
"I've got more!" Kamui assured as he threw another ball.
"Oh, the humanity!" Present Mic cried. "Shishido's not stopping and Kamui's not backing down! This has become a battle of wills!" Finally, Shishido hit a ball; it slammed into Kamui sending him flying into the air.
"Guide me," Shiozaki wished; her hair became a jungle, and Kamui broke through it.
"Center!" Gang Orca shouted. "Get big and catch it!"
"Titan Cliff!" Mt. Lady said as she ran; Kamui slammed into her face.
"Woo-hoo!" Present Mic cheered. "Mt. Lady has been knocked out cold!" Sero used his tape to capture the ball. "It's Cellophane for the save! That means Shishido's out!" Mt. Lady landed on Sero; crushing him. "Cellophane is crushed by his gigantic-sized teammate!"
"A good death," Mineta said.
"Kamui Woods has been chopped," Present Mic said. "Shishido might have not made a base, but that was a fine play! He took out three Orca players with a single hit! Nice batting!"
"Nothing nice about it," Aizawa disagreed. The three knocked-out players got placed on the sidelines; Eva combined her nature and healing magic; one vine wrapped around each player to heal them.
"Top of the second," Present Mic said; signaling he was moving on. "The Orcas have lost four through six of their batting order so they're leading with number seven. Vine!" Shoda was up to pitch again; Shiozaki ended up striking out.
"Strike Three you're out!"
Mineta got struck out as well.
"Two down in a blink of an eye!" Present Mic said,
"Penalty!" Gang Orca shouted; Eva flew over catching Shiozaki. "Penalty!" She then caught Mineta by the back of his upper body suit.
"Captain Gang Orca's blowing a spout of fury!" Present Mic said.
"Should we be concerned?" Eva said as Gang Orcas spouted blood.
"No," Mineta answered as they touchdown on the sidelines. Jiro was now up to bat. She put an ear jack into her boot.
"Now up to bat is Earphone Jack."
'My best chance is...' Jiro thought.
"And fire," Shoda said.
"High-frequency batting," Jiro said.
"Whoa!" Present Mic said as the ball went up. "Sound waves are carrying the ball through the air!"
"I did it!" Jiro smiled as she ran.
"It looks like a base hit!" Present Mic cheered as the vines around Mt. Lady, Kamui Woods, and Sero withered back into the ground. "You wanna back me up on that?"
"Pretend I'm not here," Aizawa requested.
"Shishido catches a fly!" Present Mic said. "Our walking speaker doesn't take the base!" Jiro walked up to Gang Orca with her head down.
"That was close," Gang Orca said; Jiro looked up in surprise. "A good effort." He looked up as Jiro smiled. "We'll win this game." A fire grew in his eyes.
"Gang Orca's indomitable fight spirit has his team members all fired up!" Eva looked to see that they all had little balls of fire in their eyes. The teams switched and Mineta was now up to pitch. "It's the bottom of the second and Grapejuice is pitching for our maritime team."
Mineta cackled looking at home base. "Start swinging." He threw the ball. "This is my special pitch!"
"Easy!" Sato said as he swung. The ball flew up connected to something sticky and then shot back down; hitting Sato in the golden area.
"The ball came back and nailed Sugarman in the sugar cubes!" Present Mic said as Sato danced around in pain before falling over. "That's probably the last we'll see of him this game." Sato was placed on the side by Mt. Lady, Sero, and Kamui Woods. Eva placed an open handkerchief over Sato's lower half; then wrapped vine on his upper left thigh.
Mineta laughed. 'Like that? It's my quirk disguised with powder from the rosin bag. Nobody's gonna score with my special balls.'
"Number 5 Shoda is out too!" Present Mic said.
Kirishima growled in frustration. "Damn!" He punched his hand. "How're we gonna stop him?"
Tetsutesu stood up; putting the bat on his shoulder. "Times like this, you gotta be smart."
"What does that mean?" Kirishima asked as Testutesu stood up to bat.
"If the ball's gonna come back..." Tetstuetsu began.
" 'Kay, Tin Man," Mineta taunted throwing the ball. "Eat this!"
"Then I might as well get rid of the bat!" Testutestu shouted; once the ball connected he threw the bat; it hit Mineta right in the face. "Aw, yeah! Nailed it!"
"You're out!" Umpire denied. "Real Steel is ejected!"
"Huh?" Tetsutestu cried. "WHAT FOR?"
"Talk about foul play," Present Mic said; the batter lowered his head. "We may have few rules, but you can't attack a pitcher like that!"
Shishido was enraged. "WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING, YOU IDIOT!?" He grabbed the boy. "STEEL! LEARN YOUR LESSON!" He slammed him into the ground; Testuestu now only had his head sticking out.
'Whoa,' Kirishima cried. 'So scary.'
"I wanna go home," Tamjiki said as pressed into the fence. "I wanna go home."
"It's the final game of the HLB season and it's the second inning, the Orcas have the lead with the score of 1-0," Present Mic recapped. Gang Orca walked up to bat again. "That said, they're down to five players. Let's see if they're able to eke out more runs! Oh? It looks like the Lionels are changing pitchers! Fatgum takes the mound from Mindz!" Shishido began to punch Fatgum repetitively in the stomach. "What have we here? Captain Shishido is going to town on his own player! What kind of people talk is that?"
"That is Fat Absorption," Aizawa answered. "Fat's quirk allows him to harness the power of Shishido's impact and store them in his body. The last thing they want is another home run."
"Hm. You think you're so clever," Gang Orca said.
"Bring down that whale," Shishido instructed. "No matter what it takes."
"Just don't forget our reward," Fat Gum said punching his glove. "All-you-can-eat takoyaki!"
"It's yours," Shishido said walking away.
Fat Gum faced the plate. "It's about time this game got serious."
Amajiki stood at first base; not very thrilled.
'Please Fat, don't let him hit the ball,' Amajiki pleaded. 'And if he does, please, please don't let it come my way!'
"Right!" Fat Gum said as he got into position. "The Naniwa Fat Throwing Style!" He whipped the ball down the line.
"The perfect pitch," Gang Orca said hitting the ball, it went to Amajiki.
'This is my worst nightmare,' Amajiki said; the ball slammed into sending him flying.
"Suneater's snuffed out!" Present Mic said as Kirishima recovered the ball; throwing it to Shoda. "He couldn't hold the ball, so it's live! Kirishima picks up the slack!" Gang Orca began to use his quirk on Shoda. "Mindz surfs into the sky on ultrasonic waves!" Ojiro recovered the ball as Eva flew up to catch the knocked-out Shoda. "Tailman throws the ball to third?" Shishido growled as Gang orca approached the base. The two yellings made smoke rise. "He's tagged out! The Lionels rally after a series of errors! But it did cost them Suneater and Mindz!"
"Oh, man, not good," Fat Gum said as he began to get wobbly; Eva went over and picked up Amajiki. "Used too much power." He deflated onto the ground.
"Fatgum burned through too much energy and has deflated!" Present Mic announced as Eva placed the two others with injured then went back on the field for Fat Gum.
"Shiozaki!" Kaminari said, Eva looked over to see that her friend had fainted.
"The drama is too much for Vine," Present Mic said. "Bad timing for a nap. The Lionels have five players left, one more than the Orcas." Eva went and grabbed Shiozaki.
"I thought Real Stell got ejected from the game," Eva said looking over at Tetstuetesu who was still stuck in the ground.
"The teams have been evened out!" Present Mic cheered. "In a changeup, we were waiting for, Captain Shishido has taken the mound! Chargebolt is at bat!"
'This kid shouldn't be an issue,' Shishido said. 'I give the hunt my all no matter how small the prey.' He began to throw the ball. 'Lion-like force!' The force from the ball, made Shishida and the umpire breathe through the structure, Kaminari was thrown back well; he entered 'yay' mode; Eva caught him again.
"Hot dang!" Present Mic shouted. "That's what I call a fastball!"
"Sure," Eva nodded. "He took out the catcher and ump in the process."
"Gevaudan is out cold, along with our trusty umpire! And the shock wave took out Chargebolt as well!" Present Mic recapped.
"Uh, this is so not cool," Jiro said.
Shoji leaned over to her. "You should take a dive." There's no reason for you to keep playing." Jiro 'fainted'. Shoji knelt beside her. "Oh, no!"
"Cut the music!" Present Mic said. "Earphone Jack must fear for her life because she's passed out just like Vine!" Gang Orca looked at the Lion Hero. "The Orcas are down to only two players!"
"Hey, Sugarman," Shishido said looking at Sato, who had recovered. "You're my catcher!"
"Me?" Sato asked. "Really?" Sugarman got placed as a catcher as Shoji went up to bat.
'This isn't sport,' Shoji said. 'It's torture.'
'We'll hold them back for now, then turn it around in the bottom of the third,' Shishido said. 'The championship is ours.' He went to throw again. 'Lion-like force!'
"Ah!" Eva sounded as Sato slammed into her while she grabbed Shishida.
"Oh!" Present Mic shouted as Eva was now crushed between Shishida and Sato. "Deja vu! It's just like before! Sugarman is toast! Along with Tentacle! Our nurse got caught in the play! When the batter gets fried, it's an instant out! Now, time to change sides once again. Let's get those Lionels off 'a the field."
"If this game gets any more out of hand, I'm erasing quirks," Aizawa warned. As he and Present Mic now stood on the sidelines.
"Please do!" Present Mic requested. "We move into the bottom of the third! But the score stays 1-0 favoring the orcas! Unfortunately for them, they've been reduced to a team of one!" Kirishima stepped up to bat. "The captain's the only player remaining!"
'This is for Fat, Amajiki, and the rest who had fallen,' Kirishima said as he got into a stance. 'I have one opponent. I just have to get passed him.' Kirishima hardened his whole body. Gang Orca threw the ball; sending echo waves with it. "I'm unbreakable!" Eva still stuck in between the other two players, looked over to see Kirishima holding the ball at bat. 'Such power! Can't back down! If I do, it's over for me.' As soon as the ball dropped, Kirishima ran, and Gang Orca picked up the ball.
"After all that jazz, it was a bunt!" Present Mic said. "Gangs Orca fields the ball! But there's nobody to throw it to."
"Yeah!" Ojiro cheered.
"Runner takes first! With no basemen in sight, he could steal, he could steal his way around the entire infield!"
"Alright," Aizawa smiled. "Way to go, Kirishima. You earned that."
"Tailman. Go," Shishido instructed. "Relieve Red Riot and step in as his pinch runner."
"Uh. But, sir," Ojiro said.
Shishido looked away. "The poor little guy's done everything he can. I'll handle this now. Orcas going down."
"The Lionels swap runners!" Present Mic announced.
Ojiro ran over to Kirishima. "I'll be taking over from here. You did a great job. Stand proud and go rest up."
Kirishima relaxed his composure; and sighed lightly. "Thank you."
"You should tell that to Shishido," Ojiro said.
"Play resumes!" Present Mic announced; Shishido stepped up to bat. "With no outs and a runner on first, the feral captain of the Lionels is up to bat!"
"So, what now?" Gang Orca answered.
'First, we even up the score,' said Shishido.
Gang Orca nodded. "Let's make this interesting!" He threw the ball. Shishido didn't swing.
"It's a strike!" Present Mic said as Ojiro stole second and third. "Orca's slow to move as Tailman darts around second and reaches third!" Orca threw the ball again; Ojiro stole home. "He crosses the plate! The score is now tied!"
"At last," Gang Orca growled; his energy intensified.
Shishido's energy grew as well. 'We don't have to hold back anymore.' Just as the play was about to happen, the sirens went off.
"Warning! Be on high alert! A bank-robbing villain is currently driving a large truck north on a nearby prefectural road." The conscious heroes were off the field in an instant. "Please, avoid the area! I repeat." By the time Eva got freed from Sato and Shishida, she arrived at the scene to find that Shishido and Gang Orca had taken care of the situation.
"Hey, Orca!" Aizawa called out as he, Ojiro, and Jiro also ran over.
"Shishido, sir!" Ojiro called out.
"About time," Orca said.
"Is there anything you want us to do?" Eva asked
"You four keep an eye on the villain until the police arrive," Shishio instructed.
"Handle traffic while you're at it," Gang Orca advised.
"'Cause you'll be..." Ojiro began as the two pros walked away.
"Need you ask?" Gang Orca asked.
"The game must go on!" Gang Orca and Shishido declared. They did as they were told. The game ended in a tie; everyone was now on the bus back to their agencies, students in their school uniforms. Eva sat in front of Shiozaki.
"I swear," Mineta trembled. "I am never playing baseball again."
"What a truly horrible experience that was," Mt. Lady said.
Fat Gum; leaned back in his chair. "Tell me about it. I never should have agreed to this."
"I'm going to get drilled with questions when I get back," Eva said; she flinched a little thinking about how she was going to get yelled at by Endeavor.
"You got called in to help," Kamui reminded her. "Just tell the truth as it is."
"If Endeavor has a problem, he can pick it up with me," Aizawa said. "It was my idea in the first place to have you tag along." Eva nodded.
As soon as Eva entered the dispatch floor of the Endeavor Agency, she got drilled with questions.
"How was the mission?" Izuku asked as he got close to her.
"Whoop villain ass?" Katsuki asked as he got close to her.
"What did Gang Orca need you for?" Shoto asked as he got closer to her.
The three boys had Eva sort of surrounded, cornering her; all in school uniforms, ready to head back to their dorms.
"I trust you didn't embarrass the agency," Endeavor said as he stood behind the three boys with his arms folded.
"YOU!" Eva said as she pointed at him; they were all surprised by her response. "I did not pin you as someone to fall for one of Eraser's rational deceptions!" Endeavor let out an offended gasp.
"Woah, Eraser was there!" Izuku gasped. "How intense was this mission?"
"It was a baseball game," Eva answered lowering her head.
"BASEBALL!?" Izuku, Katsuki, Shoto, and Endeavor all repeated.
"Well, what did you do?" Shoto asked.
"Score any runs?" Katsuki asked.
Eva shook her head. "I was just there to administer first aid. Sort of got k'od by Sugarman while treating Gevuan." She rubbed her back a little.
"WOAH, HOW INTENSE WAS THIS GAME!" Izuku said as he trembled a bit.
"Pro heroes sure do know how to play dirty," Eva concluded. "Heroes in training, too." On the way back to school, Eva told them all about the baseball game; Izuku was beyond shocked to hear about how foul the game got, while Katuski was enjoying every minute of it. Endeavor was angrily typing into this phone as Shoto just listened with his eyes closed. The others told her about their day; soon, the students were walking up to their dorm when Eva remembered something.
"Take this!" Eva said, shoving her hero suitcase into Izuku's arms. "I forgot something at the diamond." Before any protest could leave the boy's mouth, Eva shot up and out of sight. She shot over to the baseball mound to find Tetsutestu screaming for help.
"Help!" Tetsutestu cried. "Hello!" Somebody there? Get me out of here! Please! It's not funny anymore! Help me!"
"Tetsutestu!" Eva greeted as she landed on the ground.
"YUKI!" Tetsutesu cried with tears in his eyes. "You came back for me!"
Eva tilted her head; closing her eyes. "Sorry for leaving you here in the first place."
"YOU ARE FORGIVEN, JUST FREE ME!" Tetsutestu pleaded.
"Steel up," Eva requested as she lifted off the ground; Tetsutesu did as he was told; Eva rose high as she began to activate her quirk. She created a large tornado between two wings, aiming it down at Tetsutestu; it cut up the ground around him, and in no time, he was freed. "Hope that wasn't too rough."
"NOT ROUGH ENOUGH!" Tetsutesu shouted as he clenched a fist. "NOW HOW DO WE GET HOME?"
"I can handle that part," Eva assured with a smile. "Just hold on and don't throw up." Eva flew her and Testutesu back to campus; they talked a bit, after dropping Tetsutesu at 1-B, Eva entered 1-A to find all but one of the lights off.
"Eva!" Izuku greeted as he got to her feet; the two met in the middle. "What did you forget at the diamond?"
"Tetsutestu," Eva answered as she scratched the back of her head. "He was still buried."
Izuku nodded. "Truly an intense game."
Eva then lit up digging into her jacket pocket. "Before I forget." She pulled out a sticky note. "For you!"
Izuku took it; his face lit up. "AN AUTOGRAPH FROM THE LIONEL HERO SHISHIDA!" He mumbled for ten minutes about that hero; the two then went their separate ways for the night. Eva entered her room to find Katsuki staring up at the ceiling.
"Eva," Katsuki greeted sitting up; Eva plopped on the bed sitting across from him.
"I have questions about your agency," Eva said.
Katsuki pouted, lowering his head.. "Rethinking it?"
"Sort of," Eva nodded. "After we graduate and have a few years of pro work, Mr. Aizawa wants me to take a position here at UA, it is something for me to consider."
Katsuki put a hand on her head. "Those shitty students will be damn lucky to have you as a teacher."
"I could be an assitant to Recovery Girl, take a load off her hands," said Eva taking his hands. "I'll definitely send them to you for work studies and all. The ones show potential working under you." Eva leaned back. "I still can't believe, the flame geezer fell for a rational deception, nobody is safe from those." Katuksi laughed.
"I definitely missed you on patrol today," said Katsuki. "You bring a balance to the team." Eva smiled. "We struggle a bit without you, so used to you being with us." Katsuki told Eva the spots the messed up, cause they kept expecting her to be there. They stayed up a bit more, falling asleep around midnight. Before Katsuki fell asleep, he studied Eva a bit more. Him, Izuku, Shoto, and Endeavor all struggled without her while on patrol. He tried to call her while they were on a short break, but Eva didn't pick up.
Endeavor told him not to worry, for Eva was probably busy and would get back to him when she could. To be busy because of baseball....he had taught Eva that game. She had let go of the bat, throwing it at him.
While on patrol, people kept coming up to them for language help like usual, but grew disappointed that Eva wasn't there to provide. Bakugo thought back more. He had started their friendship, and would be damn lost without her.
