The Kid Who Grew Up

Chapter 2: Work Studies

Kenji has improved. Like a lot. His 2nd year with Edgeshot and he has learned how to use his quirk in ways that he didn't even know.  He trained extensively at every chance he could. However, it was hard for him to do it every day cause of the schoolwork he had to do. Thank god he wasn't failing anything, except history. He was on the brink of failing history. But he managed. 

Today, his former homeroom teacher, Aizawa, asked him to introduce himself to the first-year students, along with the Big 3. He doesn't know exactly why he was there. The teacher's faculty, where Aizawa, Kenji, and the Big 3 were, were discussing what to tell the 1st-years.

"You 4 will be introducing yourselves and explain to the class what work studies are about," Aizawa explained to the 4 of them. Kenji's hand rose for a question. "What is it, Otsukotsu?" Aizawa asks. "Why am I here? I'm not exactly a part of the Big 3." Kenji asked. "You can be part of the Big 3 if you were a third year. You're deemed as a strong student. You land 4th in the whole school. If there was a big 4 then you'd be a part of it. It's an early introduction to you for the future if you were put in the Big 3." Aizawa explained to Kenji, who was confused but followed. "These three have way more experience and knowledge in hero work compared to the whole school. Once you reach to the 3rd year, you will be focused a lot more on on-field work than normal classes." Aizawa explained more and Kenji nodded. 

His 2nd year was already harder than the first, he couldn't wait for his 3rd year. And maybe, once he's done with his schooling, he'll start his agency. Hawks did it at 18. If there was a person that could do it, it was Kenji. "Alright, let's go. You also have 1-B to explain this to." Aizawa stood up and gestured for the kids to leave the faculty.

As they took the long ass walk from the teacher's faculty to Class 1-A's room, Mirio couldn't help but make conversation with the up and coming Big 3 member. "So Kenji-san! I saw your first-year sports festival! It was awesome! Scary but awesome!" Mirio complimented and mentioned Kenji's 1st time at the sports festival. Kenji was flattered and had a small pink blush on his face. The number 1 student was saying this to him. "Thanks. That means a lot coming from you, Togata-kun." Kenji thanked Mirio. "I saw your performance in the 3rd year sports festival. It's amazing how you move so fast. Thank god I was there in person 'cause they had to censor a lot of it in the clips..." Kenji complimented back, but he had a blush on his face, remembering Mirio's naked body. "Haha! If I had my hero costume then my body wouldn't be seen so much!" Mirio exclaimed.

"You should get a special training uniform! But then again we're almost leaving..."Nejire interjected. "Do you have a costume that doesn't go through you?" Kenji asked Mirio. "Yes, I do! My hero costume is made out of special fibers which are made out of my hair! The support student that made it is very smart!" Mirio beamed at the mention of his hero suit. 

"Quit your yapping. We're here. Wait till I call you to go in." Aizawa then goes in and settles the class down. He talks a bit more and introduces the 4 of them. "Come in." Aizawa invites them in and the door opens. Out comes the 4 students. "What's the difference between internship and work studies? Let the experienced ones tell you. These three 3rd years and a 2nd year are currently the ones who sit on top of U.A. The big 3 and an upcoming one." Aizawa introduced and the 4 of them walked in. Everyone recognized Kenji but not so much the other 3.  Katsuki and Izuku on the other hand, were shocked. They knew he was strong but to be the 4th student in all of U.A? That was crazy news to them.

"Introduce yourselves. Amajiki, you first." Aizawa gestured to the 4 of them. On the farthest was Tamaki, and he was the first to introduce himself. Instead of a normal introduction, he gave the biggest glare to the whole class. Everyone was tense and intimidated. "Mirio, Hado...I can't do it...I tried imagining their heads as potatoes but they still have human bodies...I can't say anything...I want to go home..." Tamaki turned his head away and faced the wall.
