I sat in the hospital room, taking in the scent of. I looked at my arm and thought back to that man with the scarf.

'Who was that man?' I thought. I was lost in my thoughts when Tsukauchi came in.

"(First Name)!!! Are you alright?!" He asked.

"I'm fine. Just in the arm is where the pain is," I replied. He took a deep breath of relief.

"Thank goodness. Well, if you're up to it, can you go for a questioning with the head chief?" He asked. I slowly nodded as he opened up the door to let in a...mouse-guy-dog-bear-man-human-person-huh?

"Hello there. My name is Nezu. I could be a mouse or a dog or a bear, but all that matters is....I'M THE HEAD CHIEF!!!" the mouse guy announced.

"Holy nuggets. He...talks," I mumbled.

"Yeah; due to his Quirk, High Spec, he is given incredible knowledge. One of the few cases where animals developed a Quirk," Tsukauchi explained.

Cool. I turn my head to the chief, and he gestures Tsukauchi to sit down with him on the couch in front of my bed to drink some green tea. He pours three cups and gives one to Tsukauchi and one to me.

"I have a question to ask of you, Miss (Y/N). You are a very capable person as a detective and a protector of this city. You are a selfless woman and you are able to make split-second decisions in the face of danger. So, with great hope, I ask you to join the secret service program. Become a secret agent." Mr. Nezu's words surprised me.

"What do you mean?"

"We, as the main police force in all of Japan, must do everything in our power to shield our country with our abilities. You are more than capable of taking on such a role. We need people like you to do this."

"Sir, if I did take you up on that offer, what would I do?" I asked.

"Along with carrying out top-secret missions, you will spend part of your time with trainees that have graduated from our special academy. You will teach them everything that you can in order to make them better in the future. I have assigned you a colleague that you will have to work with."

"Sir, who might I be working with?"

"A man who has been doing his job for a few years; he'll teach you what you need to know. His name is Shouta Aizawa."

'Shouta...Aizawa? I've heard that name before...have I?' I thought. I take a large gulp of tea and swallowed it. "Sir?" Nezu looked at me. "I accept."

"Wonderful! Now you just have to sign a.....few papers..."

I nodded and drank the rest of the tea. A man opens up the door and, I kid you not, wheelbarrowed in five tall stacks of paper and seven sets of pens.

I did a spit-take.

After what seemed like several millennia, I finally got them all signed. "Cheese and rice! Why do people like to purposely pressure the person they want to recruit with paperwork?!"

"These kinds of matters are very important when you want to become a secret agent. We make people do this paperwork to make sure they know all the risks that come with this job," Nezu explained. "Now, is your arm feeling any better? We're going to take you to our HQ so you can begin."

"Okay. Let's go, then."

I was driven to the HQ in a very nice limousine with nice leather seats and a bar across them. I took a simple bottle of water as I gazed at the scenery out the tinted windows.
