My Hero Academia X Male Spider-Man

Ch. 21: A Day For Preparation...And For Truth

Italics = Thoughts

(F/N's POV)

After returning home and resting for the remainder of our day off, it was back to school once again. In the morning, I carefully put on my uniform without messing with my remaining bandages too much. I said a few words to Aunt May and went out to catch the train to school. It was clear we needed to talk about a few things, but now didn't seem to be a good time for either of us. I put in earbuds and looked at the news on my phone in one hand while standing on the crowded train, holding the pole nearby in the other hand. They happened to be talking about the attack on the USJ.

News Anchor: "This is a follow-up report on yesterday's incident at U.A.'s rescue training facility where hero course students were attacked by villains. According to police investigations, the criminals call themselves 'The League of Villains' and they've been plotting to kill All Might, who has been a teacher at U.A. since spring of this year. Police have arrested 72 villains, but they still do not know the whereabouts of their ringleader and a few highly skilled villains."

As the broadcast ended, I got off the train and pulled my earbuds out, putting them back into my pocket. After I made my way to campus and was on my way to the classroom, I decided to change directions, heading towards the faculty room. I sighed and knocked on the door to see if any teachers were present. I heard some shuffling, then someone opened the door and as it cracked open, I was greeted with All Might in his navy blue suit with a red tie.

All Might: "Oh, Young F/N? How are this morning? Feeling better?"

F/N: "Oh, good morning, All Might. I'm feeling better for the most part. I caught up on some much needed rest. There was something I wanted to tell the class, but I wanted to talk it over with the teachers first."

Nezu: "Then you're in luck."

All Might opened the door wider to show Principal Nezu seated on the couch sipping on tea, which he placed back onto the coffee table."

F/N: "Principal Nezu. Am I interrupting?"

Nezu: "Not at all. Besides, it is the our duty to hear out our students. Come in. Have some tea with us."

F/N: "Thank you."

I did as he said, sitting beside him on the couch while All Might pulled up a chair. We all had a cup of tea and spoke.

Nezu: "So, what seems to be troubling you?"

F/N: "It's about my past as a vigilante. I know I was told not to tell anyone about it, but with time I hoped to earn the trust of my peers at least. After the USJ attack, I'd like to clear the air between me and the rest of 1-A."

Nezu: "I see."

All Might: "I suppose that makes sense, considering how those villains singled you out the other day. They may already be suspecting something. Might be better to get ahead of it."

Nezu: "Yes, I agree. It can be dangerous to pass secrets around like this, but if you all are to be the next generation of heroes, mutual trust must be established and part of that is honesty."

F/N: "So, you think it's the right call."

Nezu: "Yes. However, just as you said, it'd be best to only inform 1-A. They are the ones you will be cooperating the most since they are your class, so they will be your circle of trust."

All Might: "Principal Nezu, I'd hate to think the worst, but is there any possibility the information about the USJ could have been leaked by someone at U.A.?"

Nezu: "It is a possibility, but I'd hate to imagine one of the students is responsible. However, I don't think it changes much. The villains already suspect F/N is the vigilante, and with his performance in his fight with them at the USJ, they might have confirmed it. Not much more they could learn from F/N confirming their suspicions. The final decision will be yours, F/N."
