What's Done Is Done

< Opportunity >

Aizawa POV

I had been in Principle Nezu's office as he had called me here after the classes had ended for the day. I was sitting in the chair across from his desk as he had sipped his tea and I had sighed, 'Did he call me here just to sit in silence and be some sort of company?' I thought.

He had soon put his cup on his desk and had looked at me, catching my attention before he started speaking, "I believe we should allow the girl to join UA." He said plainly and I blinked, confused at first until it finally registered and I had furrowed my brows a bit, "I'm sorry principle, but your joking right? I think you should call Miss Joke instead of me for a good laugh." I responded, not seeing how he could be serious about this.

Nezu had looked at me with a serious expression and I had realized just how serious he was about this notion and I had leaned forward a little, "Nezu, you can't actually be considering this." I said, now waiting for his response. He soon hopped off his chair and had walked over to me, looking me in the eyes and saying, "But I am. You see, if we convince her to attend the school, then we can show that truly, villains have a second chance to redeem themselves." He said walking towards the windows of his office.

I had sighed and stood, "But principle, that girl is too far gone. You saw it yourself, she didn't hesitate to try and attack you just out of pure anger. If she were to come into this school with the students, then they would-" He interrupted me as he was still watching out the window, "Then they would be fine." I had blinked and had sighed.

He looked back at me with a smile and had spoke, "She is only a child Aizawa. What she has been raised to learn is all she knows, but what if we can teach her the right way? The way to a better life. After all, she was the one just a few hours ago that spoke of her past and present life. The way she was raised, seemed as though it was full of instilling fear into her to get where she is now."

            I had lightened up a little, thinking back on it, but I had been brought out of my thoughts as he had Pat my leg and I looked at him, "Come Aizawa, we must open our hearts to her and show her just how truly wonderful her life can be." I had sighed after that statement and soon looked to him, "Fine, but if she intends to betray us, I will put an end to this instantly. Understood?" I had said sternly, Nezu soon returning to his desk and nodding.

Ikue POV

I had been laying in the cell as I had been facing the wall, looking back on the tragedy I call my life and had sighed. I heard footsteps coming this way and hadn't even bothered to move an inch, but when I heard the clinching of keys and the screeching of the door opening, I looked over my shoulder with a blank look and saw the detective there that would come by every now and then, "Come on. Nezu and Aizawa want to talk to you."

I had been following the detective as I had my hands stuffed in my hoodie pocket and had an expressionless face, not really interested in whatever was going on, but I looked around as we walked the halls of the school and I had seen the doors to all the classrooms were open, 'I guess schools over for the day.' I thought, soon coming to a stop in front of a bigger door, seeing the sign read 'Principle' on it.

The detective knocked on the door and a small voice soon responded, "Come in!" He opened the door as he stepped aside and I had been facing the little creature that I spoke with just hours ago sitting at a desk and I had glanced to the detective who was smiling, "Tch, you wanted to talk?" I asked with a deadpanned tone lacing my every word as I walked in, soon taking a seat in the chair across from the desk, my hands still in my pocket.

The creature had the same smile he always had on as he spoke to me, "Yes. I believe you'll have an interest in this discussion." I had huffed and closed my eyes, looking out the window shortly after, "I'm not interested in anything you have to say, it just sounded like a good chance to get out of that damn cell." I said, not looking interested at all.

As I sat there waiting, I had been fidgeting my fingers in my hoodie pocket, clearly noticing that Eraserhead had activated his quirk, disabling mine, "Join our school." The creature said plainly. I had blinked and looked at him with a confused look before I burst into laughter, "Are you serious?! Me, join a school of HEROES?!" I continued laughing as I wiped a tear from my eye and soon looked at him with a smirk, "Sorry, but how did you actually believe I would want to agree with that joke?" I asked him.

Before I could say anything more, he responded bluntly with, "Because it's either that or a life in prison my dear." I had soon dropped my smirk and sighed, sitting back in the chair and staring at my lap, back to having no emotion shown on my face, thinking about what would seem like the better option.

However, I didn't have time to think before he spoke again, "Come now, you know that prison is no place for children, but with the crimes you have committed, it's fitting for the person who enacted them." I still looked at my lap as I spoke in a deadpanned tone, "Tch, what is this? Are saying your trying to get me to take a shot at redemption?" It was silent for a moment.

"Yes actually!" I looked at the creature with furrowed brows, but shocked. I had stiffened in my spot on the chair and had taken my hands out my pocket, putting them on the arms, "Are you..serious?" I asked, which soon gained a response from the principle, "Quite. I want to be able to show you that there is more to life than what you've seen in the past. I want to show you that you don't have to hate those so different from yourself." He said and I just sat there silently, blinking a little and gripping the arms of the chair, now leaning forward a little, "Child, I want to see you flourish in your future, not drown in it with sorrow, anger and hatred. So please.."

He soon stood, walked over to me and had put a paw on my hand as I flinched a little and looked down at my hand, looking at him with a bit of a shocked look, "...join society once again, and come to school at UA."
