Tsuyu turned around to see the person who called her.

"Asui."

It was Hitoshi.

"Shinso-chan, you're here."

He was in the same class as Tsuyu. Maybe because he was a special mentor to Mr. Aizawa? He did seem like a favourite student to him. Hitoshi has been calling her every single time when she was alone. His explanation for it was somewhat interesting. They both stepped outside, and Tsuyu asked a question first.

"Do you need anything-Kero?"

Hitoshi nodded.

"Sensei asked me if you and Bakugo have seen Faye-san yet."

"Really?"

Tsuyu looked to the side.

'Why did Sensei have to ask Shinsou-chan that?'

She nodded.

"We did see her. By the old shack near the back of the school."

"Is that so..."

Tsuyu glanced at Hitoshi.

'Is that what he was going to ask me?'

Just as she was about to ask him, he cut her off.

"I'll tell him now."

He then walked into the school leaving Tsuyu outside.

"What? What was that?"

She scratched her head.

"What is going on today?"

Just then, Tsuyu heard an exploding voice coming towards her. Knowing whose it was, she wanted to ignore it. But it became awfully loud. Willing to give up, she turned around seeing Bakugo stomping towards her.

"HEY! What are you doing here?!"

Tsuyu blinked her eyes.

"Getting fresh air."

Bakugo somehow couldn't take that as an answer.

"You're still messed up about that Faye incident aren't you?! What's so special about her?!"

Bakugo kept on yammering and yammering until he got to a completely different topic.

"AND WHY WAS THAT PURPLE HAIRED GUY HERE??!!"

"Please be quiet.

Bakugo grunted.

"Why was he here?!"

"Sensei asked him if you and I saw Faye-san yet."

Bakugo didn't seem convinced.

"Really?"

She nodded.

"Yes."

Just then, Tsuyu saw Faye walking towards them.

"Ah, Faye-san..."

"Hey! Tsuyu Asui, right?"

She nodded. Faye then turned to Bakugo.

"And you're Katsuki Bakugo, correct?"

Tsuyu nodded for him.

"It's nice to see you all again like this. After all, your internships will be starting tomorrow after all."

"Tomorrow? I thought it was-"

"Did I make that too vague? It's tomorrow for us."

Tsuyu was surprised.

"Only us?"

Faye nodded.

"And for that-"

She looked to the side.

"You may need to go to the library."

"The library?"

--------------

"Why do we have to do this?!" Bakugo whispered aggressively.

"Because Faye-san told us to? Kero?"

"But it's a complete waste of time!"

Tsuyu glared at Bakugo.

"Well, I like it."

They were both currently in the high school library; sitting on chairs opposite from each other and a desk to support them. Faye told them that they had to read specific types of books for their internship. Tsuyu was quite invested in it with at least five books right next to her. Bakugo only had a picture book.

"Why do you like this type of stuff?!"

"Just because...kero."

She stood up and headed over to one of the bookshelves without finishing her sentence. As she put her book away, she spotted an interesting looking book in front of her. Curiously struck her mind so she took it out and read the title.

"Why America has the best quirks ever."

Interested by the title, she walked back and sat in her respected seat.

"What is that?!"

"A book."

She glanced at the author's name.

'M.I? I wonder...'

As Tsuyu read through the book, she saw many types of quirks that America had. They were cool and all, but...

'What does that have to do with having the best quirks ever?'

Just then, Faye walked into the library along with another child.

"Oh? Eri-chan?"

Her eyes lit up when she saw Tsuyu. Faye let go of her hand.

"I saw this little critter wandering around the hallway, it seems that she was looking for you."

"I see."

Eri ran up to Tsuyu and jumped into her arms. She smiled and held her tightly.

"Why are we doing this?!" Bakugo asked Faye in an impolite way.

"Well, it will be important for the internship."

Bakugo scoffed.

"WHy?"

"Because..."

Faye clasped her hands together.

"We'll be going to America!"
