It had been a week since the trial and I had worked out my community service with U.A which I am genuinely happy about. I'm excited to be working with the future generations of pro-heroes granted it's not for another week but still. I just want to be able to go in and help out these kids that want to get into the world of pro-hero work since it really isn't easy. Especially in situations like this past week which just say it hasn't exactly been the easiest week for me.
Between this damn collar being so tight and itchy along with the media covering my fight with winter in the most unkindly and insensitive way it didn't take long for negative opinions on me to start spreading like wild fire.
" Hana? Hanaji are you still there?"
My thoughts where stopped by the sound of my Aunt Millies voice in my headphones. Right I forgot I called to vent to her I sighed as everything I was venting about came back to me.
" Sorry Auntie I zoned out on you a bit"
I replied with a chuckle keeping my head forward as I continued to walk ignoring the world around me.
" I'm on my way to UA right now I'm just saying all of this shit thats been going on has really been fucking with my head non stop the media is making people so rude and judgmental and this damn collar is so itchy"
I grumbled starting to scratch at my neck as an itching fit came on. Damn I wonder if this is how Tomura felt.
" Well firstly, stop scratching I can hear it through the phone-"
Aunt Millie said I sighed softly stuffing my hands into the pockets of the black metallica hoodie I wore over a white t-shirt I think looks ok with some black jeans and doc martens but who knows I had to take out all of my piercings and cover up my tattoos since i read that makes you look better but my face feels weird without them.
" Second, take it easy, Hana. You gotta take it easy, you have a lot of people counting on you; more than you think. Just take a deep breath and try to relax if you can. Things will get better soon. You're going back to UA for goodness sake! Can't get better than that, right?"
I chuckled a little as she said that. It honestly could get a hell of a lot worse but I didn't want to ruin Aunt Millies speech. I took in a deep breath and nodded, wait why am I nodding she can't see me.
" yeah, yeah your right Aunt Mil im happy to be back at UA believe me it's beyond exciting its gonna be nice to see Micky again but im just already missing being out there in the field office work at moms agency is reaally boring and I can't use my quirk its been so weird"
I said as continued to walk now because of the trial I had been forced into the cubical office life and let me just say, i fucking hate it. period. I sighed looking around I could see the harsh glares I got from just about every single damn person I passed, it's fucking annoying.
"Hey some of us like office work! All those binders in different colors, then you get to make copies and the paper comes out all warm- er sorry I'm getting sidetracked, aren't I?"
Aunt Millie started to ramble and laughed a little. I smiled as she continued to talk.
"Anyways, there's no need to use your Quirk if you're working at UA. Sure you won't be able to cook your meat on your arm and use a microwave like most people, but it'll be an experience just like the olden days! And I believe in you Hanaji!"
I laughed a little as she brought up the cooking meat on my arms I know it sounds gross but it cooks faster and it tastes really good.
" Yeah office work just isn't for me aunt Millie, i guess i should be a bit more opened minded to this new life moms happy im not cooking on my arms like dad used too but he did revoke my driving privileges for the month but its fine i like walking its nice when people aren't glaring at me like the karens they are"
I said glaring at the people glaring at me.
" I guess I understand that feeling. Before I went full time and had limited use of my powers, I had to get used to walking everyday instead of flying on the plus side it's great cardio and less bugs in my hair."
Aunt Millie said with a laugh making me laugh a little my Aunt Millie is a pro hero she works at my moms agency and she's an awesome pro hero too, unlike me right now. . . Damn. . . What would dad think. . .
" yeah, I'm definitely gonna miss my flames for the next six months I know mum will too I know he likes seeing my blue flames since it reminds him so much of dad. . ."
I went quiet, my father is- was the oldest son of the Todoroki family. Touya Todoroki. He went to UA with my mum and alot of their friends him and my mum where incredibly close they knew each other since childhood but he passed away before my mum could even tell him about me. My mum says he died in a fire caused by Endeavour but I don't really know.
" Hey Aunt Millie? . . ."
I softly said getting a small
"yes Hana?"
In response.
" Do you. . . . Do you think he would be proud if me right now? . . . My dad i mean"
I said without even a second to waste Millie responded.
" Oh Hana of course he's proud! If I remember your dad from high school, the uh times when he wasn't threatening to cremate your aunt Vi, he always said how much he loved to see young people grow to do something great. Deep down, he was really hopeful about being a great hero, and i know for a fact that he would be so proud that his son got to see his dream for him. You're an incredible hero, you're the Blue Phoenix! Of course he's proud."
She said making be smile a bit.
" thank you aunt Millie you seem to always know just what to say"
I said with a small smile feeling a bit better about everything granted i wish I could actually talk to my dad but theres way thats happening.
" I probably get it from hanging around your mom so much"
She said making me chuckle a little.
" Probably, anyways thanks aunt mil I appreciate you listening to my venting bullshit"
I said i could hear Aunt Millie smile on the other line.
" Of course Hanaji it's no problem at all i'm always here when you need to talk"
She said and I nodded.
" Well i better let you go, i'll talk to you later Aunt Mil"
I said getting a goodbye from aunt Millie. I hung up and let out a sigh pulling out my phone and a pair of headphones plugging them in and playing some Peach Tree Rascals to cure my depression. I sighed softly stuffing my phone back into my pocket looking forward continuing to walk humming along to Mariposa.

It wasn't that long until I got to U.A and started to walk to Principal Nezu's office it felt nostalgic to walk around my old high school looking around I could see all the memories I had from this place both the good and of course the bad. It felt like it was only yesterday when I was an innocent wide eyed freshman coming into my first day at U.A. Damn how time flies. I continued to walk humming along with the music to myself a little until I came to Principal Nezu's office. I took out my headphones and knocked on the door.
" Come in"
I heard from the otherside, I opened the door seeing Principal Nezu sitting at his desk drinking some tea I smiled at him.
" Hello sir"
I said as I entered the office.
" Hello Hanaji how lovely to see you again im so happy see you again granted the situation could be much better"
He said making me let out a soft chuckle as I walked over and sat down.
" well it's an honour to be back here sir"
i replied with a smile.
" Well my boy UA is honoured to have one of it's best students back here"
He replied than cleared his throat.
" Anyways I would like to talk with you how your community service will work while you are here" He said I nodded and straightened up as I looked at him.
" Now you will be expected to arrive here an hour early everyday so that you are able to help the teachers set up for the day every hour you will go from teacher to teacher aiding them in any ways that they need every month you'll be given a schedule to help you keep track of which teachers you need to go to at which time here is your list for this month"
He explained as he passed a piece of paper to me having the schedule on it holy crap that is alot. I started to scratch at the collar feeling it itch again.
" Now you will be expected to stay after school as well for about an hour or two as well to help with any necessary needs"
He added I nodded as I continued to look over the schedule the itching at my neck getting worse but when you break it down it really didn't look all that bad. I think.
" I would like for you to try and follow the schedule as you would a normal day to try and get a sense of what your new normal days would feel like I just want you to be comfortable while working here- are you alright?"
Principal Nezu asked looking at my concerned than I felt some hot liquid roll over my fingers. I stopped scratching and looked seeing blood on my fingers.
" Yeah sorry sir it's just the collar it's really itchy"
I said and he nodded. I sighed looking at the schedule I saw that I needed to head to the first year general ed teacher Miss.DustCloud who was a very nice lady just soft spoken.
" Yes sir thank you"
I replied and got up but Nezu soon spoke.
" Hanaji maybe you should visit with recovery girl first so that she can treat your neck"
Nezu suggested i nodded in agreement that would probably be best since the blood is getting under the collar and that feels gross as fuck. I nodded my head yes.
" ill go do that sir"
I said and smiled giving a small thank you as I left the room.
