16 - Deal

\......................................................../

Izuku was sitting on the floor of his room, surrouned by things like paint, glue and such.

"Ok, it is almost ready. I just need to finish the eyes." He thought, remembering the conversation with his grandfather.

\................../ Flashback \................../

"Well, I will be going then. Thank you for everything grandpa." Izuku said.

"Oh yes, before you go, I should warn you." Saichi said.

"What is it?"

"You should probably make some changes to that mask. Like I said before, I kinda stole it from the theater, so I would like to avoid unnecessary lawsuits in my age."

"Yeah that does sound like something to be careful about. Allright then, I will make some adjustments to it then."

"Sure, go crazy kid." Seichi said chuckling. "Also, are you really sure you want me to come along to look at your contract?" He asked seriously.

"Yup, I think it will be for the best. I mean, you do know how these things work and all, so it would be comforting if I could rely on your judgement." Izuku said back.

"Allright, then call me once you know the date."

"I will..."

\.............../ Present Time \.............../

"And that should do it. Now I just have to wait for the glue to cool down." Izuku thought as he finished his upgrade of the mask.

Izuku quickly grabbed his phone. "Oh, it's mr. Nakano." He realized and picked up the call.

<Hello...>

<Hello Midoriya. I am calling to let you know that the paperwork for you is ready.> Maruo said.

<Really? That's great.> Izuku said.

<Allright, I will send you the location for the meeting in a moment. So come this thursday at, let's say 5. Do you agree?>

<Sounds good to me.>

<Allright then, I will see you later Midoriya.>

<Same he- Oh wait, I have one more thing I need to tell you.>

<What is it?> Maruo asked.

<You see, one of my family members wants to come along to look at the contract with me. Is that allright with you?>

Maruo was silent for a few seconds before he answered. <Of course. That won't be an issue.>

"I don't like that hesitation there. Thank you grandpa for warning me to be careful." Izuku thought. <Thank you, that will be all from me then.>

<Very well, I am looking forward to thursday Midoriya.>

<Same here sir.> Izuku said as Maruo hang up.

"That's one thing out of the way, let's see how this turned out." Izuku mumbled as he picked up his new mask.
