I woke up and somehow somewhere in the night Danny had curled up in my lap like a cat. I smiled before stroking his hair and then I stretched before my phone rang. I was genuinely surprised and I blinked because who the hell would be calling me at 7am on a monday? And then I remembered what me and Danny had to do today and I answered.
- Mouse Thing -
"Hello?" I grumbled.
"Goodmorning to you too Dabi! Now just so you know. Today is a school day so.."
I immediately cut him off. "I'm coming. I'm Danny's guardian as of right now therefore I will be there for these tests."
"Meet at the gate then. I'll have Fine sneak you into my office. We can both watch from there." Nezu complied.
"Got it. Seeyou soon Nezu." I told the mouse before hanging up.
Danny chose that moment to stretch and look up at me.
"Was that Nezu?" Danny asked me and I nodded.
"Yeah. We need to get going." I told him before getting up and stretching.
Danny nodded and then we both went to get properly dressed. Danny in the bathroom and me in my room and after that we headed out.
It was a long walk from my apartment to UA but I didn't mind it. It was therapeutic to me. Just walking. Danny clearly didn't agree though since he kept biting his lip and looking around and so I put an arm around his shoulders as we made the last turn and then I saw a huge green dude with ripped green cargo pants a yellow shirt and a backpack with a red beret and red eyes.
He was tapping his foot and then he saw us and he beamed.
"Hi! Fine at your.." he said as he cut off and then he squealed and rushed over causing me and Danny to both take a step back cautiously and the big guy paused.
"Danny? You do remember me right?" The big guy asked tentatively.
Danny was quiet for a moment and then he gasped. "Tucker!"
Tucker nodded. "My name is Fine now. Also. No. I'm not giving you any answers. Good luck on your test buddy. 2+2 equals four!"
Danny smacked him and Fine grabbed me and before I knew it I was in Nezu's secret office.
"Nezu!" I snapped.
"Watch the Camera's if you want to know what's going on Dabi." Nezu smiled and I hated him. Sneaky bastard.
Fine laughed once behind me before vanishing and I snorted before turning around and watching the camera footage.
- Cam Footage -
Danny blinked and froze up as Aizawa approached him.
"Don't worry your friend's fine. He's with Nezu." Aizawa explained.
Danny frowned but nodded. "Okay. So what test is first?"
Aizawa grinned. "Your favorite. The writing portion."
Danny almost cried and then they went into one of the classrooms and the cam switched to a different camera so that I could see that the whole classroom was empty of everyone but Danny. Which relieved the majority of my tension and so I watched for approximately around three or four hours as Danny struggled through everything. It was kind of sad. I knew Danny wasn't stupid but when watching him test? Well... he wasn't a good test taker that was for sure.
- Cam Footage 2 -
Danny had finally fought his way through the test and Aizawa nodded at him before taking him to the Ground Beta.
"Alright. There is only one rule. No leaving ground beta until told to do so. You have thirty minutes to defeat every robot here. Go."
I watched as Danny raced into the zone and immediately took to the air where a missile charged him and he dodged causing it to blow up a building.
Me and Nezu both looked at eachother before focusing back on the screen where Danny was now engaging the massive robot that had fired the missile and was battling it to the best of his ability.
I sighed. "He's going to fail. Why didn't Aizawa tell him about the point system?"
"Because. We are testing his wit and his strength. He's already done hero work so I'm making it harder on him." Nezu explained and I frowned
Which was the exact moment that Danny got sick of the robots bullshit and released a ghostly wail that knocked it over.
I smirked and then Danny moved onto hunting for smaller bots.
He racked up ten points during that time and then he stopped. Reason? He finally realized that there was some dummies stuck in the rubble.
I watched as he started helping them and taking them to a safer area and by the time he was done he had racked up just enough to pass the practical exam. I knew this because I could see it on Nezu's screen.
I sighed in relief before kicking back on Nezu's couch and then Aizawa went and got Danny and they headed back to the gates.
"So. What happens now Nezu?" I questioned the mouse thing.
"You and Danny go home for now. I will send the test results in a week and while I'm doing that I'll have Aizawa get Danny's dorm room ready and he can take Mineta's old spot in Aizawa's homeroom since we kicked him out yesterday." Nezu explained.
I nodded before something occured to me.
"What about Danny's age?" I asked Nezu.
"Things can be looked over." Nezu smiled and I sighed.
"This is going to be the wackiest thing I've ever done isn't it?" I groaned.
"Perhaps." Nezu smirked.
"Fine. Nezu. I want into UA aswell. Not as a student though. Perhaps I could be the janitor or some shit?" I found myself asking the principal.
Nezu beamed. "You'll leave the league to become a janitor?"
"As long as you provide me housing and the ability to see Danny whenever I please then yes." I answered.
Which was when a look of understanding crossed Nezu's face and he smiled gently.
"You two are a package deal aren't you?" Nezu questioned softly and I nodded. I wasn't ashamed.
Nezu sighed after that and adjusted some papers. "Look. I can't promise you anything but I will see what I can do. Okay?"
I nodded. "I'll keep the league busy then and out of your way the best I can."
And with that Nezu left and I was left alone for a minute until Danny and Fine appeared laughing and talking.
"He's still alive!?" Danny shouted.
"Apparently." Fine grumbled.
"Wow. I still can't believe that the GIW hasn't caught him yet." Danny snorted before grabbing my hand.
"Eh you know how crafty Vlad is." Fine huffed.
"Alright well. Seeyou around Fine. Me and Dabi should probably be heading home." Danny told his friend and Fine nodded and then we were off.
The first thing that happened when we got home was Danny started hopping around like a over excited bunny.
"That was so much fun! Dabi ground beta was like. Filled with cool enemies and there was this mega bot and then I had to save people! I had a blast!" Danny gushed.
I laughed before grinning "Nezu did have cameras you know."
Danny looked mortified. "You didn't see me bomb the writing part did you?"
I couldn't help it. I smirked and he smacked me.
"Dabi!" Danny whined
I laughed before ruffling his hair and then I went to my room to plan out the rest of the week and how the actual fuck I was going to keep the league busy and off of the heroes tails.
