One Fish, Two Fish

Chapter Four

"She's not ready."

"She's been here three weeks."

"Yes, and she's only been awake for less than 24hr's."

Recovery girl folded her arms, glaring up at Aizawa. "We know almost nothing about her. We can't just--"

He held up a hand, cutting her off. "We can. So, she doesn't have a quirk. So what? There's a reason why she was being kept like that. We need to find out why."

"Not only does she not have a quirk, but she also doesn't seem to know what they even are!" Recovery girl frowned, touching her fingers together, counting as she continued. 

"She doesn't know where she is. She doesn't seem to understand anything modern. She said she has no family. We can't match her DNA in any system. And she doesn't have a quirk!" Recovery girl looked to All-might exasperated, "a little help please?"

All-might rubbed his chin, "I agree with Aizawa."

Recovery girl threw up her hands, "what is wrong with you all?!"

"Chiyo." All-Might cleared his throat, "we aren't going to hurt the girl. But, keeping her in here is not helping her. She's young, she can't be stuck in a hospital room all day." He lowered his head, "I'm sure she's been stuck in enough rooms already." 

He looked back to Recovery girl; "You said she is perfectly healthy, yes?"

Recovery girl pressed her lips together in a fine line, "technically, yes. She's in perfect condition physically." She looked up again to Aizawa, "though she did try to have a conversation with the monitor earlier. She thought because it beeped it was alive. She also was extremely confused about why we had a bath indoors."

Aizawa coughed hard, his fist half-heartedly covering the smile on his face. "She will be fine. She was released into mine and All-mights care. This is our decision."

Recovery girl rolled her eyes, "fine. But, don't say I didn't warn you."

Aizawa ignored her and walked over to the curtain, grabbing the edge of it before stopping. "Kokyū, may I come in?"

It was silent for a moment before a small voice spoke, "you may."

The curtain was pulled back to reveal the girl, her head turned away from them and towards the window. Aizawa walked closer to the bed, All-might coming to stand at the end of it. He cleared his throat, causing the girl to flinch. He frowned: Poor thing. She's so skittish. I hope this is the right choice, Aizawa. 

"Young lady, are you sure there is no one we can call for you? A mother? Father? Anyone at all?"

The girl looked at her hands, rubbing her thumbs together. "No. Not anymore."

"In that case-" Aizawa took a step forward, "how would you like to get out of this room?"

The girl looked up at him, a small smile tugging at the edge of her lips. "I would like that very much. I would like to learn more about my new surroundings."

"All right listen up."

All heads turned to the front of the room where Aizawa stood, "Quiet down. We have something very important to discuss."

The 1-A students slowly moved back to their assigned seats as he continued;
