I Don't Wanna Be You Anymore

"Elaborate." Aizawa stepped into the lounge room at 10 pm from overtime looking like he had not bathed in days. He has, he just typically looked like he hasn't. "This better be worth stopping work. If not, I'm cutting light's off by an hour."

Everyone remained silent, gathering around the sofa. Anxious looks on their faces overpowered whatever excitement they had just a minute ago.

"Iida."

"Sir!"

"What's going on?"

"Well, you see, Sir. I really don't know how to put this in any other way, but it seems that Bakugo has disappeared."

"He's been kidnapped?"

"Not exactly. I supposed the proper way to explain it is that he's been replaced."

"What?"

"Wouldn't it be easier to just show the man?"

A deep voice interjected and everyone immediately backed off to make way for Aizawa's view. Their eyes darting towards a tall, blonde man with toned muscles sitting comfortable with his arm on the sofa back. His eyes sharp and piercing as they met Aizawa's.

"Eraser."

The disbelief was written all over his face when he muttered.

"You're... Bakugo?"

The next day, in class, as the others patiently waited for the start of homeroom, they chatted among themselved about upcoming events. Currently, all they knew was that right at this moment, the older Bakugo was being taken by Aizawa to meet up with the principal and the other teachers to talk about his current predicament.

"You think they're gonna kick him out?" Mineta jokingly whispered.

"Eh? Why would they do that?" Asked Ashido.

"Think about it. There's no way they're ever gonna let a grown man join a class full of newbies! Have you seen those pecs!? For all we know he's been going pro for who knows how long and you expect us to train with someone who might just beat us so easily!? Are you insane!?"

"I mean yeah, we get that, but it's not like they can't just kick him out of class. He is a student here, you know. Whether he is our Bakugo or not, legally speaking, they can't do that."

Surprised, everyone looked at Kaminari in shock for actually having rational thoughts. 

"What?"

"Nothing. We're just proud of you, man." Kirishima put a hand on his shoulder.

"What does that mean? Why do I feel offended?"

"And it's short-lived... My condolences, Kaminari." Said Asui.

"HUH?"

"If they do let Bakugo in class, then I can't wait for it! I have so many questions!" Chirped Hagakure.

Majority agreed. A sense of excitement once again began to circle among the students as they waited for Aizawa's arrival, which, didn't take long.

When the man opened the door, silence ensued. He walked up front with Bakugo following not far behind him as he began to make his announcements. He started off by saying that he had just finished the meeting with the principal and other teachers. They've already informed his parents about the situation as well, and that they've agreed to come into campus sometime in week. In the meantime, as investigations are taking place, Bakugo will be staying in class for formalities.

When he said this everyone's eyes darted back to Kaminari.

"However," he pointed out sternly, "After assessing his capabilities, we unanimously agree that it would be best for him to refrain from any activities that involve going against any of the students in this class or campus. That is in terms of anything related to exchanging blows, anyway. Everything else is compulsory still. Legally speaking, he is required to perform just like the rest of you. It's only for decorum, but please bear with us until this whole ordeal is over."
