Coming of age: The beginning

First day and Parfaits

Before the opening ceremony, Shika and Mirio walked over to the development studio to meet Mr. Power loader.

Since her school and quirk information hadn't been transferred from Konoha to Musutafu in time, Shika hadn't been able to submit a quirk registry and body specification form for her hero costume.

So now she had to have a temporary one made for the time being.

Mr. Power loader had one of his assistants take her measurements for the costume and as they did, they called out her specs. Shika was so embarrassed and Mirio's ears were beet red as he watched and listened.

There was just something about seeing that measuring tape wrapping snugly around her body in... certain places.

Before they left, Shika was informed that she could stop by city hall in about a week to get a quirk registry form to submit to the school's support company for her real hero costume.

With that one she could attach a request form asking for certain customizations and designs. And she couldn't wait! After that, Mirio dropped her off at her class and said his goodbyes before heading to his own.

Shika's first day of school was fairly uneventful. She met her classmates and the rest of their teachers before going to the opening ceremony. Then lunch time came around, but sadly she didn't get to see Hadou, Tamaki or Mirio. After that was an introduction class for hero basic training.

Admittedly she was kind of disappointed since everyone else got to wear their hero costumes during the hero fitness test while she had to wear her gym uniform. The temporary costume she'd been fitted for earlier wouldn't be ready until tomorrow.

Everyone displayed their quirks during training then once back in class Aizawa evaluated their performances. Shika, much to her surprise, was only evaluated on her sub-quirks and not the main one.

Aizawa had also asked her to meet him after school to further discuss his evaluation. That was scary, and the nervous glances she received from all the other students only made it worse.

Shika knocked on the door of the faculty room before sliding it open and entering. There were a few teachers scattered around the room silently typing away at their computers as she walked timidly towards Aizawa.

The area just in front of his computer was littered with empty juice boxes and disposable 7/11 bento containers. And there he was among the heap with his head against the desk sleeping, yet again.

"Um, Mr. Aizawa?" he'd heard her say and lazily opened his eyes.

"...Eh? Kazami? Did you need something?"

She was confused and was sure it showed on her face.

"Uh, you said you needed to talk to me after class...? About my evaluation?"

Aizawa only looked on in silence momentarily before blinking a few times and stretching.

"Oh...right. Your quirk. Particle release you called it? It's dangerous. Too dangerous to use during regular hero training."

"But-" she began but was cut off.

"A quirk with that amount of destruction could put the other students in danger if you're not careful. So during hero training you'll only focus on your sub-quirks."

Shika couldn't believe what she was hearing. She'd worked her butt off to perfect particle release to the point that she had. Sure, she still didn't know everything about it or its secrets, and using it drained her. Oh, and sometimes she lost control of it...
