Upon getting down onto the field I saw the kids smiling at chatting with each other crossing my arms and getting to above 6' 5'' I smirked spotting the gremlins that had my attention, making my way past other heroes I cleared my throat getting at least Bakugo's attention and the greenet.

" You two with me, where are Kaori and Kujo?" I asked and the boys looked at me in confusion. " The male half of Kaori," I said and I could see Bakugo immediately get pissed off at my choice of words. " Her brother." I clarified.

" O-Oh you mean Kenji?" The greenet asked.

" Bingo that's the name!" I exclaimed, snapping my fingers in happiness. " So, can one of the two of you go get the other blondes?" I asked.

" Oh uh I can call Kenji it's a little difficult to reach his sister."

" Hey blasty, go get the girl." I said noticing out of the corner of my eye the bright red haired boy and a yellow blonde with a black bolt in his hair stuffing their giggles down. I heard Bakugo scoff then walk away, looking down at the greenet I raised an eyebrow he scampered off doing as I had asked. He returned moments later with Kujo and Kaori in tow, Bakugo following behind Kaori, Both bickering about something, smiling I whistled sharply, making them stop and look at me. " Yo! Half and Half!" I yelled, getting the dule colored haired boys attention. " Come here!" I yelled and he shuffled towards me and my small group of four. " Alright, now that all of you are here, let me introduce myself. Hi! I'm Water Lily, an American hero, I've heard about your class and you guys sure live up to your name. I'm interested in taking one of you as an intern for the time being." I said introducing myself.

" Why would some American hero come here?" Bakugo asked and I looked over at him, towering over him easily.

" Well, don't you live up to your record. Bakugo Katsuki." I said, flashing a grin. " Cool your jets, I'm trying to help you become the best hero you can be, unless you don't want that?" I told him watching as he clenched his fists and his jaw. " Alright, first up I need your names and why you want to become a hero. Then I will take you individually to ask more questions." I explained.

" I'm Kenji and unlike everyone else here I'm not a complete asshole. I'm quite popular at the school, you can ask anyone. Plus who else can beat this smile." Kujo told me and I raised an eyebrow at him and his overly large ego. I thought Bakugo was bad, this kid was something else, at least Bakugo could back it up.

" Well thank you for that intro Kujo, next!" I said slightly annoyed at this kid and how he avoided the second half of my question. The Kujo kid looked offended at me as I misaddressed him. I also noticed the other blonds smirk at my misaddress to Kujo's name.

"Well you already know me apparently, I'm Bakugo Katsuki and I'm training to be the number one hero in Japan. It's my biggest goal in life and I plan to make good on that goal." Bakugo told me and I smiled and nodded.

" I do, only cuz of your middle school snapshot fame. I thought you were pretty strong, and you have definitely grown since. I'm impressed, kid." I told him watching as different emotions flashed over his features, before a smug smile formed on his face. " Kaori, your turn." I said looking at her with great interest. All she did was glare up at me, her arms folded over her chest, I knew she was a mute but I wanted to see how far I could push her. " Kaori, it's rude to not answer your elders." I told her and her glare deepened then she flashed a middle finger at me, I had to bite back a grin. " Alright, greenie, your turn." I said watching as he blushed then looked down at the ground.

" I-I'm Midoriya Izuku, I want to be just like All Might bringing happiness and hope to everyone that lives here. I want to be exactly like -"

" Alright, that's enough! Half and Half, go!" I said cutting the greenet off as I noticed Bakugo's jaw clenching.
