Izuku and the TMNT: Heroes Out of the Shadows

Chapter 23: Gran Torino and One For All

We now meet at the Hiroshima bullet train station where class 1-A is located. Today is a very important day for them as today is the first of their week-long internships.

Shota: "Everyone has your costumes on, right?"

The class didn't need to answer because you could see that some had their suitcases in their hands and others had some luggage for the week they were going to spend in their internships.

Shota: "Remember, you're still not allowed to wear them in public. And don't lose them. They're not cheap to make."

Mina: "You can leave it to me!" – she yelled as she excitedly lifted her suitcase.

Shota: "Speak politely. It's "Yes sir." Ashido." - Aizawa scolded Mina

Mina: "Yes sir..." - Mina's grumble made her colleagues laugh.

Shota: "Make sure you behave well and take care of your manners. This isn't school, it's a real hero's job. Now you can go."

Class: "Yes sir!"

With that, most walked towards the trains to go to the selected agencies. Iida was walking in absolute silence with an emotionless expression on her face towards the train, with most of the class not noticing her mood. Well, some did.

Izuku: "Hey, Iida! Wait!"

He stopped and turned to see Izuku and Ochako.

Izuku: "Look, if you want to talk or something. Let us know. We're here if you need us." - Izuku and Ochako were with a worried expression. Izuku found out that he is going to do an internship at Hosu and it was exactly there where Ingenium was attacked. Izuku started to get worried about this.

Ochako: "That's right."

Izuku: "We're your friends, aren't we?"

Tenya: "Yes. We are. Thank you for your words, and good luck in your internship..." - He said while smiling at them.

Iida turned and continued on his way, but his smile was replaced by an angry look, for he had a mission in mind, one he would see fulfilled.

Back at Izuku and Ochako, the two were looking worriedly at their friend.

Ochako: "I hope he's okay..."

Izuku: "I wonder if he's really okay..."

???: "No he is not..."

Izuku was startled and turned around upon hearing that mysterious voice of some man he heard the day he was about to choose his Hero name. But when he turned around, he didn't see anyone near them.

Ochako: "Dekiru, are you okay?" - Ochako saw the strange way Izuku was behaving and got worried.

Izuku: "I... I am. Uraraka, didn't you hear someone say something around us?" - He said while looking for the source of that voice.

Ochako: "No, I didn't hear anything. Why?"

Izuku: 'What's going on? Am I going crazy by any chance...?' – He thought as he continued to look around.

Izuku: "No... it's nothing. I think I'm hearing things." - He said as he turned his attention to the girl. - "Changing the subject, what time does your train arrive, Uraraka?"

Ochako: "Dekiru..." - Ochako turned her face to the side, a little embarrassed, which made Izuku a little strange.

Izuku: "Did something happen, Uraraka?"
