Chapter 14 - Why Do You Want To Become A Hero?

School was closed the day after the league of villains attacked the USJ. I think they wanted us to have a little break... but it was pretty hard to relax. If it weren't for All Might and all the other teachers we never would've stood a chance against those villains.

All of the girls thought it would be a good idea to hang out at someones house to try distract us from everything that has been going on.

We decided on Momo's place because hers is big af and all of us were just in her room chatting about whatever came to mind.

"Hey (Y/N)," said Mina, "weren't you going to tell us who your soulmate is?" she said bouncing on Momo's bed like an excitable child. When everyone heard that they all stopped chatting and turned to face us.

"Huh? O-oh yeah." I said fidgeting slightly.

"Go on then! Spill!" joined in Toru.

"Well it's umm... Katsuki." I said blushing, my voice muffled because I stuffed my face into a pillow.

"BAKUGO?!" They all screamed in disbelief except for Ochaco.

"I found out yesterday, she didn't even tell me, I figured it out" said Ochaco calmly.

"How? Kero." asked Tsu.

"After all the teachers came to save us I saw them kiss." she said smirking at me. My blush now was so bad that I didn't even look like (Y/N) anymore, just a tomato version of me. "It looked so sweet and it was the first time I've ever seen him genuinely smile." said Ochaco daydreaming about the moment.

"YEAH! But how could a sweet and innocent girl like you have BAKUGO as your soulmate?!" shouted Mina while shaking me. My smile faltered slightly but it went unnoticed by the girls.

So they see me as sweet and innocent huh? I wish I was that, but I know I can never take back what I did all those years ago.

"Who knows what would have happened to us if the teachers didn't show up." said Hanta.

"WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT! I'M GONNA PEE MYSELF JUST THINKING ABOUT IT!" screamed Minoru.

"Oh shut up! Grow a pair loser!"

"Katsuki! Would it kill you to be nice for just a day?!" I shouted at my idiotic boyfriend.

"Attention! Homeroom class is about to begin!" I heard Tenya shout as he burst through the door. He stood at the front of the class. "Everyone stop talking and take your seats!"

"Uhh, we're all sitting."

"Yeah you're the only one standing."

Once he sat down we heard the door slide open and saw Mr Aizawa standing there, his face and both arms covered in bandages.

"Morning class." he said in his usual monotone voice.

"Mister Aizawa what are you doing here?!" everyone in the class shouted.

"My well being is irrelevant. What's more important is that your fight isn't over yet." Our fight? What could that mean? "The UA sports festival is about to start."

"Why would you scare us like that!" everyone screamed.

"Let's go kick some ass!" shouted Eijiro but was cut off when Denki slapped him in the face.

"Wait a second." the human Pikachu said.

"Is it really such a good idea to hold the sports festival so soon after the villains snuck inside?" Kyoka spoke up.

"They could attack once we're all in the same place." said Mashirao.

"Our sports festival is one of the most watched events in the world." said our teacher.

"That's right." started Momo. "And top heros everywhere will be watching, this is where you get scouted."

"If you wanna go pro one day then this event could open a path for you. One chance a year, three chances in a lifetime, no aspiring hero can afford to miss this festival." said Mr Aizawa. "That means you better not slack off on your training."

"Yes sir!"

"Class dismissed."

"Hey, Uraraka?" asked Izuku.

"What's up?"

"Why did you decide to come to UA, what made you wanna be a pro hero." He inquired.

"Bruh, that's a touchy subject ya know." I said flailing my arms at the green haired boy. She smiled at me with an 'it's okay you don't have to worry about me' smile and told him why.

"Well... it's because it'skindaforthemoney." she said the last part very quickly and quietly. It was enough for them all to hear though.

"For the money?" he said surprised. "You wanna be a hero so you can get rich?"

"If we're cutting to the chase then yeah." but then she realised what she just said. "I'm sorry if it sounds greedy! You guys have such admirable motivations. I hope you don't think less of me now."

"Why would we!" I shouted.

"Your goal is to support your well being which is a perfectly admirable ambition to have." Said Iida while doing his strange hand movements.

Ochaco went on to tell us about how her family owned a construction company but that at the moment they were flat broke. She also said that she wanted to sign with a good agency to make plenty money so she could let her parents have an easy life. A story that I've heard over and over but every time it brings a tear to my eye.

*CLAP CLAP CLAP*

"That's beautiful, so noble! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!" Oh Tenya. Always so dramatic but hilarious. Suddenly All Might came around a corner and held up his cute little bento asking Izuku if he wanted to have lunch with him.

"Thats adorable!"

<>-<>-<>

Since Izuku had gone to eat with All Might, it was just us three left eating lunch together.

"Hey (L/N)?" asked Tenya. "What's your reason for wanting to becoming a hero?"

"Yeah." said Ochaco. "Whenever I would ask you when we were younger you'd always dodge the question." She leaned in staring eagerly at me.

"W-well I umm . . ."
