~Third Person POV~

    Once Endeavor had left the room he got on one of the hospital phones, knowing they don't keep track of phone records or have the calls recorded. He couldn't take in another sixteen year old, he already had several children that despised his guts. He looked through his phone contacts until he pulled up one for Principal Nezu. He was the principal for the school his son went to and knew they could help hide her and maybe discover if she actually has a quirk or not. He doubted she was as innocent as she appeared, so he was going to find out if his hunch was right or not. He dialed the number into the hospital phone and listened to it ring a couple times until the familiar voice answered. "Hello! This is Principal Nezu. How may I assist you today." He said. He was cheerful but had that creepy undertone that always got under Endeavor's skin. "This is Endeavor. I'm sure you've already seen on the news, but we have a little bit of an issue." He said. "Ah, yes. I saw it a few hours ago. So, tell me." He said before getting serious. "What exactly is the threat." Endeavor paused. "I thought the same thing at first but I believe we might have a more... Complicated issue on our hands." He said. "It's not appropriate to talk about over the phone, however would you be willing to accept a student into the school. I know it's the second semester, but once you see the issue, you will understand." He said. "Endeavor, every student has to audition." He said, tisking. "Then she will audition." Endeavor said. He could sense the Rat's smile on his face. "Very well, I will see you within the hour." He said before hanging up. Endeavor growled a little as he hung up the phone. He hated how mischievous the other could sound. He didn't know what he was going to put the girl through, but it won't kill her. He walked over to the front desk and talked to one of the nurses. "I need discharge papers for Caelesti Arumi. I am signing off as a guardian." He said. The girls at the desk fawned a little, finding it quite adorable that he was doing such a sweet thing for the young lady. In all honesty, he was only doing it to save her life. If they stayed out in the open too long, they might have trouble. He got the papers and a pen, walking back and forth as he filled out the paperwork. Thank God his kids never got seriously injured. He hated paperwork with every bone in his body. At the agency he ran, that's all he did all day was sign papers. It was tedious and ridiculous. Once he was done signing the papers, he gave them back to the nurse at the front desk and she stapled the sheets together, giving him a copy of them. "Here you go. She's all ready to go." She said and smiled at him. He nodded a little and took the papers. He walked back to the room and walked in, giving the papers to Hawks to hold onto. "Alright, the discharge papers are signed and you're ready to leave whenever." He said. Looking at the two.

~First Person POV~

  
   While Endeavor was gone, Hawks asked me a few questions. "So, what did you do for fun at your school?" He asked. "I did a lot of after school activities. I don't know how the schooling system works here in Japan, but I have a lot of time for extracurriculars. I am in Marching and concert band. We actually we're supposed to be going to contest this weekend..." I said, saddening a little. I just realized all the things I am going to miss back at home. I was in so much, I don't think that I'll be able to recover from this. "I'm going to be missing a lot..." I said. "I play the clarinet. I was originally supposed to play the flute, but my mom got me the clarinet instead. I'm not mad at her for it, I'm glad she did. I love playing my clarinet. I don't know what I would do without it." I smile happily. Hawks smiled. "Sounds like you were into a lot of music stuff, huh? Did you do any plays or musicals?" He asked. "Yes, as many as I could. We have a fall play and a spring musical each year. I've been in them since seventh grade. We are just a big family." He nodded. "That's really cool. You're gonna love it here. Lots of cool places to go and things to do." He said. "I'll be allowed to go places? I thought I was under protection?" I asked, confused. "You will be, but a bodyguard or guardian will always be near you. You can still be a kid and have fun." He said. I nod and smile at this, glad I'll have at least a little bit of room to breathe. As we started to talk more and more about Japan and the sights to see, Endeavor walked into the room, throwing a roll of papers at Hawks. I watched Hawks scoff a little at the other before putting it in his jacket. "Alright, the discharge papers are signed and you're ready to leave whenever." He said, looking between the two of us. I nod a little and get up. I take the heart monitor off myself, going to grab my bag when I remembered I lost it on my way down the rabbit hole. Figuratively and literally. I walk over to them, looking at the room. "I must have lost my belongings when I was up in the sky... I don't have anything to collect so I am ready to go whenever you are." I say to Endeavor. He nodded a little and he walked out of the room. I followed behind him and Hawks behind me. "Stay close, paparazzi tend to follow us wherever we go." Endeavor warned. "Paparazzi?" I questioned. He didn't answer me but I knew it wouldn't be good. We stepped outside into the daylight and there was a large crowd if people with cameras and microphones. Red wings flashed to both sides of me. "Don't worry kid, I've got ya." Hawks smiled and winked. I relaxed and smiled, hidden from the craziness. "Endeavor! Endeavor! What was that thing that fell from the sky? Was it dangerous?" A woman yelled. "Endeavor, over here! Is it true that a mysterious portal dropped a missile towards the city?" Another man yelled to him. Everyone was tying to get his attention. It was hard to concentrate as I felt my anxiety rises higher and higher. I took a deep breath and slowly let it out, thinking of the directors baton again, calming myself until we get into a car or somewhere other than out here in the mess of paparazzi. Endeavor ignored every last one of them as we walked by. I went by, completely unnoticed thanks to Hawks and his wings. A black limo was parked on the side of the road and a valet opened the door, the three of us slipping inside of the vehicle quickly. I calmed my heart rate, avoiding the thought of going back out into the crowd again. "People will never learn." Endeavor said bitterly about the crowd of paparazzi. Hawks chuckled a little. "So where are we going now?" Hawks asked, questioning Endeavor. "We are going to UA." He replied. I looked at him confused, unsure what UA is. Hawks looked at him a little confused as well. "Uh, are we going to see your son?" He question. This caused Endeavor to scoff and shoot another glare at Hawks. I can tell this happens very often between the two pro heroes. "No, we aren't going there to see Shoto. We are going there to enroll her in UA and have her blend in like a normal student. I called Nezu in the hospital and he wasn't apposed. She still has to audition for the class." He said. Hawks' jaw dropped at this. "He is aware she has no quirk correct?" He said. Endeavor nodded. "It will be fine. She just needs to blend in. At UA she will be under heavy surveillance at all times and they have on sight dorms. It's the perfect place." He said. Hawks sighed and shook his head. "I question you decisions at times like this." He said. I watched the two bicker back and forth for a little bit before looking out the window, thinking. Maybe this all was real.. It just seemed so far fetched that it was a little hard to believe. The rest of the car ride there was mostly their bickering. They aren't best friends but they fight like an old married couple.

     I figured we had arrived at the school when the limo had come to a slow stop. The door opened up and Endeavor for out first, then me, then Hawks. Again. This was starting to get slightly repetitive. I looked at the gates of the school I stared in awe. It was beautiful. The building was huge and the gates looked like the were made of gold but they weren't, they were made of something much stronger. They opened the gates slightly, giving us enough to to comfortably walk through. I looked at the scenery, almost instantly distracted the moment we walked in. This place was truly beautiful. Once we got to the front doors, we walked inside to see the empty halls. I wonder what time it was for it to be so empty? It must be after school hours of course. I tried to spot a clock but couldn't find any right off the bat. We went up many flights of stairs, going down twisted hallways and into rooms. I don't know is Endeavor was trying to wear me down a little but it was getting annoying just walking around in what felt like circles. We passed a couple people in the halls, one of which had green hair. Never in my life have I seen someone with green hair. He stared at me for a moment then at Endeavor and Hawks. I shrugged, just as confused as he was. I think this only confused him more because he made a face and walked off. We got to what looked like a conference room and saw a few people that looked like teachers. I think? They didn't look like students but.. they didn't wear normal teacher outfits either. One of them was staring at me, his eyes glowing red. My eyes widened and I picked up my pace behind Endeavor. Hawks seemed to find this hilarious because I could hear him snickering behind me. I shot him a small look over my shoulder and he pretended like he was innocent, whistling a random tune. We walked into another room, this one with a desk in the center. "Welcome, please make yourself at home." A friendly voice said, the chair spinning around. In the chair was a white creature I couldn't quite explain. Before I could process any words, I passed out.

~Third Person POV~

     Caelesti fell unconscious after seeing Principal Nezu out of shock. Hawks grabbed her quickly. "Ack!" He said, picking her up carefully. Principal Nezu looked at the girl, a little surprised. "Well, I will tell you this. She certainly is not from around here! Her chemical energy is all over the place." He said. Endeavor sighed. "Yes, she is the one that fell out of the portal. Just, splash a little water on her." He said. Hawks looked at him, giving him the most confused look. "You don't just splash a little water on a girl's face, they might wake up and punch you in the gut." He said. Nezu walked over and observed her for a moment. "Well, she certainly hasn't seen someone like me before. If she reacted this poorly to seeing me then that portal might not be what I thought it was." He said, thinking to himself. "What do you think the portal was?" Endeavor asked, looking at him when the subject was brought up. "I'm not sure yet, I. Still processing. Now, tell me. Why exactly is this more complicated than I think it is." He said and sat down in his desk chair. Hawks gently set Caelesti down in the chaise, making sure she didn't fall off and get injured. Endeavor walked over to Hawks and retrieved the file from him. "I'm not going to say who I had gotten this from, but it changes everything." He said and sat the file down in front of Nezu. Nezu eyes the folder suspiciously before opening up, reading through it. He was silent for a while, processing. He looked over at the unconscious girl on the couch. "Oh dear." He said, sighing. "Now this is quite the mess we are in, aren't we." He said and rubbed his temples. "Blood is one thing but it's not always accurate. There is only one way for sure we can confirm that the file you just showed me is correct." He said. "All Might is not going to be pleased with this task." He sighed and put the folder in his vest. "She will audition, but it's not going to be as fair as the others since she is joining so late." He said.
