Salamander's Daughter

- Chapter 2 -

"So, let me get this straight. Your going to have me attend your school for... heroes? Um... U.A., right," Nalla asked clarifying what the short white creature, Neza, had told her.

"Yes, that's right," Neza confirmed with a nod of his head.

"And you're sure, your not an exceed," she asked him to confirm.

With a sip of his tea he replied, "yes. I'm sure. I'm not an exceed."

They just sit there staring at each other for a short award moment before Nalla asked him, "and... why do you want me to attend your school?"

Neza smiled at her as he put his tea down on the saucer plate sat on the table. He looked at her and calmly explained, "you see Miss. Dragneel, you're from a world very different from ours.

"Now, in order for you to get back to your world you have to find the 'dark wizard' that brought you here, am I correct?"

Nalla slightly nodded at him as he continued, "but I'm afraid you can not do that, because of are quirk laws."

"But I don't have a quirk," Nalla said as if it was obvious.

"I know that but our world will see your magic as a quirk. And you having come from a different world means, you have no knowledge or place to stay in ours. You going to U.A. will provide you with what you'll need in this world and will help keep people from finding out your from another world," Neza calmly explained.

Nalla looked at him confused and asked, "why do I need to keep people from knowing I'm from another world?"

"If people find out that there are other worlds capable of intelligent life, there would be a mass panic," he explained as if it was obvious.

"Isn't it a bit ignorant and arrogant of your world to assume it's the only one capable of intelligent life," Nalla replied in a monotone voice with a deadpan expression. Neza would be lying if he said he wasn't a little surprised by her reply. Of course, he would admit that to anyone.

"And you don't have to worry about giving me a place to stay I can always camp out in the woods,"she continued casually with a wide grin.

Neza gave her an odd look and said, "woods? There are no woods around here."

"Oh... never mind. I'll gladly except your offer for a place to stay," Nalla replied with a sheepish grin and slight blush of embarrassment.

"So, it's settled. You'll attend U.A. and live in the dorms until the dark wizards are captured and you can return home," Neza said taking another sip of his tea.

"Now wait a moment, before we settle on anything I have a question for you. What do you get out of all this," Nalla asked. Sitting up in her seat with a serious expression, as she looked Neza straight in the eye in the eye.

Neza replied calmly, undeterred by her sudden change in character, "well there are two reasons. One, these 'dark wizards' you speak of need to be delt with, innocent people could get hurt."

"Innocent people could die," Nalla corrected him.

Neza just nodded at her and continued, "second, we're heros, Miss. Dragneel. We're ment to help people in need."

She looked at him through narrow eyes for a long moment. Then she slouched with a shrug and showed a lazy grin at Neza and said, "I understand. I'm the closes thing you have to knowing anything about wizards and this is the best way to keep a close eye on me."

Neza nods at her with a smile and added, "for tonight you will stay with Shota Aizawa. Who will be your homeroom teacher of class 1-A. To your classmates you are a foreign exchange student who just arrived in Japan. Your room in the dorms will be set up for you tomorrow after school. As of right now no other student's will be in the dorms with you.
