A/n: By the way, when seeing the title, some may think this is the last chapter, but no it's not. People keep thinking that I'm going to end this book but no I'm not, at least not abruptly. This book will have an appropriate ending, then another book will come afterwards. Enjoy the chapter!

Y/n's POV:

Not too long after waking up to Shouto and talking to him, Aizawa and All might came in all worried. I explained what happened to them, of course All might didn't take it that well. Soon after his fatherly questions that I would just reply 'i don't know' to, they left so I could get some rest.

However, due to the horrific quirk of that man, I was not able to sleep. That leads me to where I am now, outside sitting in the forest behind the dorms. Looking up at the sun above, feeling the warmth, made me feel safe. Until I saw in the distance dark clouds approaching. I sighed in defeat.

"I guess this day just won't get any better for me." I mumbled to myself.

"Oh sure it will, you know I never tell you to be a pessimistic loner Y/n~." I hear a sassy, yet soft voice say. I whip around to see a man with a black hoodie on which covered his black shaggy hair, but brought out his sparkling golden eyes. I sighed in relief as I realized who it was.

"Oh Nori, it's just you, I thought that I was going to die for a couple seconds there." I groaned as I walked up to him. He looked down at me with worried eyes.

"What's wrong?" I asked, he sighed as he placed a hand on my shoulder.

"Y/n, I'm worried about something, well I'm worried about you is what I'm trying to say." He paused, his other hand ruffling his hair causing his hood to fall. "There's something coming which I know I can't prevent, but I can only fight it instead. But I need your help. So I came here to ask you something."

"Ok?" I asked completely confused.

"For your internship, instead of doing the normal hero work, and returning to the dorms at night, I have something else prepared for you." Nori started, "I can't really give the details right now, but you won't be returning here until were done. And no visiting either, it will sort of be like the internships."

I stared at him wide eyed, I will have to leave again?

"W-why?" I stuttered. His eyes faltered, I could feel him getting frustrated as his hand on my shoulder tightened. He then removed it and started to pace around.

"Ugh! Can't you see that your being targeted? If something like this were to happen again, I don't k-know!" He started to yell, I felt myself start to shake, I've never seen him like this before. He sighed as he looked at me with now calm eyes. "Sorry, I guess I'm just really frustrated. I promise you I won't let this happen again, because things will be different now. Please say you will let me train you so that this never happens again?"

I looked down at the ground, if I say no, the next time this happens I probably won't be so lucky, but I will be able to see my friends still. If I say yes I will get strong enough to fight back, but won't be able to stick around with everyone for a while. I sighed at the thought, but I've known the correct answer from the start.

Looking up, I walked up to him and smiled. I stuck my hand out for him to shake, he looked confused.

"When do we start?" I asked with a smirk. His eyes widened as he looked down at me. I saw his normally pale cheeks turn a shade of red. One hand went up to his face to cover his blushing self and the other shook my hand.

"G-god, next time just say ok or something. I started to think you would say n-no." He started to stutter, I laughed at this bashful side of him.
