Izuku and the TMNT: Heroes Out of the Shadows

Chapter 56: The Start of the Next Semester at U.A!

[Insert Song: Unshaken - D'Angelo (Full Version)]

[Next Day]

The sun was rising once again, with no clouds in the sky to block its glow, already shining on the building of Class 1-A Dormitories. However, we're focusing on just one of the reserved rooms where Casey was staying, still sleeping on his stomach with his face buried in the pillow until his alarm clock rang. Upon waking up, Casey opened his eyes slightly as he turned off the alarm on his phone, and as he did so, he sat up in his bed while stretching his arms; releasing his morning energy. But before getting up, he looked at the bedside table next to his bed and stared at a photo next to his cellphone; it's precisely a photo of Casey when he was younger with his parents, standing in front of a pharmacy.

As he looked at that photo, Casey smiled faintly and commented.

Casey: "Bless you, mom and dad." - He commented with his hand on his chest before getting up.

Upon leaving his temporary room, Casey walked to the boys' bathroom to do his morning hygiene, but when he got there, he noticed that the 1-A boys seemed to be more serious than usual, or somewhat sad; which made the man a little curious, but he preferred not to ask. However, he noticed one thing: Izuku and Katsuki weren't among them.

Once he finished his morning hygiene, Casey returned to his room once again, to put on more appropriate clothes, sat on the floor as he looked at some things he had bought: Maps of each region of Musutafu. And the reason? Casey was looking for places he hadn't visited to gather information once he arrived in Japan. In these maps, we can see that Casey had marked some X's symbolizing the places he had already visited, while circling some places he could still search for more information about Overhaul, which would consequently lead him to the purple dragons. And next to Casey was his cellphone, which showed what the man was researching on the Internet:

Overhaul and Yakuza.

But all he managed to find was not what he wanted, as there was no location or much information he needed.

Casey: "Alright, these are the closest ones from here." - He commented to himself as he marked the locations where he would look for information. And these marked locations are bars or alleys. - "Okay... Time to stretch my legs again." - That's all he said as he got up and grabbed his cellphone.

As he got up, Casey put on a jacket and then grabbed something from his huge bag; a hockey mask, which the man stored in his jacket pocket. After getting what he needed, Casey walked to the door and opened it, but before leaving, he looked at that photo from before and stared at it for five seconds with a slightly melancholic expression before closing the door and locking it.

[End of music]

Descending the stairs until he reached the common area of the building, Casey saw that the 1-A students were already in their uniforms in the area while sitting at the tables, but they didn't seem to be in a good mood... Especially as they looked at Bakugou, who wasn't in uniform and was quite distant from them as he vacuumed the floor with his head down. The man looked at the students' faces and became curious as he saw that some were staring at the explosive blond with disdain, others with disappointment, and the rest with anger.

Sero: "I still can't believe he's still here." - He whispered to his friends at the same table as him, who are Kirishima, Shoji, Ojiro, and Sato.
