(Y/n) landed the day after and her grandma had been there to greet her at the airport.

The young girl stepped off the plane, dragging her suitcases and duffel bags off the plane with her. She covered her yawn with a dainty hand and adjusted to the bright fluorescent lights leading down the hall. The wheels of her suitcase clicked every so often, matching the pace of her excitable heartbeat. She couldn't believe she was actually going to UA, the school of her dreams!

The hallway ended and she stepped out into the waiting area, scanning the crowd for a familiar face.

"(Y/n), dear!"

Her eyes lit up at the sight of her kindly grandma. Quickening her pace, she joined her family member in the crowd.

"Grandmother!" she exclaimed in perfect Japanese.

"Hello (Y/n)." her mentor smiled. "My, you've gotten taller since I last saw you!"

"Grandmother, you say that every time I see you." (Y/n) laughed as she bent down to give the elder a hug.

"Your other items should be shipped to the dorms soon, but for now just take your bags." Recovery Girl nodded at her protege's load. (Y/n) nodded astutely and slung the duffel bag over her shoulder.

People gawked and stared as the famous hero and her granddaughter walked past. A few fans came up and asked for autographs from the wizened healer. (Y/n)'s grandmother greeted everyone with a smile and offered them candy as they went on their way.

"Wow, you're so popular!" (Y/n) exclaimed.

"It's nothing dear." her grandmother smiled and waved her hand dismissively.

I guess you get used to all the people gawking and staring, (Y/n) thought to herself as they exited the airport doors. It makes me a little nervous to be in the center of attention sometimes!

Her grandma hailed a cab and opened the trunk to let (Y/n) put her luggage inside. She struggled a little, but waved off her grandma and the driver away when they offered assistance.

"I'm fine, grandmother! Besides-" she grunted, shoving the last of her bags into the trunk. "If I'm going to be a hero, I need to be strong enough to help myself before I help others, right?"

She slammed the trunk shut and brushed a stray hair from her face. Her grandmother hid a smile as she turned to get the door.

You have the heart of a good healer already (Y/n). I can't wait to watch you work at UA.

The cab engine purred to life and peeled away from the curb slowly. (Y/n) watched the natural scenery fly by and stifled another yawn. She brought her hand to her chin to prop herself up against the window.

"Did you take a nap on the plane?" her grandmother asked. (Y/n) grinned sheepishly.

"Yes, but only for a couple of hours. I was too excited to fall asleep because I kept thinking this was all a dream!" she laughed.

"I'll let you rest back at the dorms." her grandmother said, fixing her eyes on the road ahead. "Tomorrow you'll need to be at my office by 9:00 sharp for me to give you details of what your day will be like."

(Y/n) made an alarm for the next day at the mention of the meeting.

"You'll also have to do some studying during the day too. What are the three groups of muscles in your thighs?" she asked sharply, hoping to catch her apprentice off guard.

"Quadricepts, hamstrings, and the adductors," (Y/n) shot back.

"Ah, I'm glad to see homeschooling has worked out. Excellent."
