READ THE FIRST BOOK BEFORE THIS ONE!
~~~~~
Optimus wakes up in the common room of the UA dorms. He notices a few of his classmates staring at him. He can feel his head resting of something, but he's still a bit too disoriented to tell what.
"Finally awake?" Aizawa asks.
Optimus puts together that his head is on Aizawa's lap. He's brushing Optimus' hair out of the way of his face.
"Aizawa?" Optimus starts to sit up, but he's pushed back down.
"You were cleared from the hospital, but they want you to take things easy. You're extremely exhausted," Aizawa states, "The students are going to be in dorms now. I've already signed your permission slip."
Optimus smiles up at Aizawa, he can't help but be reminded of his mentor. Aizawa doesn't even know the truth, yet he's treating Optimus like his own. And Optimus can't help but see Aizawa in a fatherly light. Maybe it's because he's a teenage human, or maybe it's something else. It doesn't matter right now.
"All For One won't be a worry anymore," Aizawa reassures, "Whatever you did... Ended his life."
Optimus frowns. He's not supposed to kill in this world. Is he going to loose his chance to be a Pro Hero?
"The report says that you lost control of your quirk and accidentally killed One For All," Aizawa explains.
"But..." Optimus starts.
"No buts," Aizawa interrupts, "That is what happened."
Optimus nods. He understands lying to protect people. The Pentagon did plenty of that when clean up Cybertronian messes.
He lets out a small rumbling sound. The sound of a purring engine. Though with how quite and gentle it is, it can easily be compared to a cat. Aizawa continues to brush Optimus' hair with his fingers as he drifts back to sleep.

Yes this is a short chapter. It's here just to start off the story. The others will be longer, I promise.
