The Son Of The Number One Hero

Chapter 18: Internships and Work

Orion was walking into the classroom after the break from the Sports Festival and went to take his seat while the rest of the students talked about how the people they saw on the way to school were talking about them. They said that people were talking about how amazing they were doing the Sports Festival. Orion rolled his eyes at them, thinking, 'That's so stupid. They're getting all excited about being recognized once.' Aizawa entered the classroom, "Alright everyone. Breaks over. Get in your seats and get ready for class." Tsuyu said, "Glad to see that you've removed the bandages Mr. Aizawa." Aizawa scratched his cheek, "It wasn't all that bad. Recovery Girl just went a little overboard with my recovery. Now, settle down. We have an important heroics class today. You'll be picking hero names." The other students got excited to pick their hero names. Orion just yawned and decided to take a quick nap as the students started picking out their hero names. He only heard a little bit after Midnight arrived and warned them that they should choose their names carefully. 

Orion was stirred when there was a silence in the room. It was odd to hear in the classroom. He looked up to see that Midoriya had chosen Deku as his hero name. Orion thought, 'That's weird. I thought that Deku was the name that Bakugo gave him to insult him. Well, to each his own. If he wants to be called that name, let him.' Orion stretched his arms. Aizawa glared at him, "Yagi, returned to the world of the living, I see." Orion stared back, "Said the pot to the kettle." Aizawa simply made a grunt of acknowledgement before getting out of his sack. He grabbed some papers and explained that they were all going to be doing internships for a week with heroes that had either recruited them or had offered to take them in. Orion smiled, "Guess that means I can go back to work." Aizawa started handing out the papers with the lists of heroes to the students.

After school, several of the students were talking about which heroes they were going to intern with. Uraraka asked, "Hey, Yagi, what are you going to do for the internship?" Orion said, "I'm just going back to work." Several students were confused, "Work?" Orion explained, "I'm already a licensed pro hero, so I don't need to internship with another hero." They made sounds of understanding. Orion stood up to leave, followed by Midoriya. However, before they could exit, All Might came, "I am standing in front of the door in an awkward position." The two boys were startled when the hero grabbed them and pulled them to a corner. All Might said, "Young Midoriya, I assume that you're preparing for your hero internship?" Midoriya nodded, "Yeah. I'm still trying to figure out where I'm going to go." All Might held out a hand to silence him, "Don't worry about that. You've received a recommendation." Midoriya grew excited, "Really? Which hero?" All Might was frightened as he said, "Gran Torino." Orion stopped listening as soon as he heard that name. It brought back some bad memories of being trained until he threw up and not being allowed to sleep until he had met the requirements set for the day. "Orion." Said boy was taken back to reality when his father called out his name. The two were looking at him, concern on their faces. Orion said, "Sorry. Just remembered what it was like when Grandpa Torino taught me. It wasn't pretty." Midoriya swallowed, "A hero that even All Might and Orion are scared of." Orion hummed, "It's less him that's scary and more of his teaching methods that are frightening." All Might said, "Well, whatever the case may be, remember that you don't have to accept this Young Midoriya. The choice is yours." Midoriya didn't even waste a moment, "I'll do it. I want to learn from the man who taught the two of you." All Might smiled, "That's what I like to here!"

It was the day of the internships. The majority of class 1-A was waiting at a train station, raring to go to their internships. However, one student was missing. Ashido asked, "Huh, I wonder where Yagi is?" Midoriya said, "He told me that he was going directly to his destination." Ashido was confused, "His destination? Where's that?" 

At the same time, Orion was standing outside the All Might agency with his hero costume. He smiled, "I'm back."
