The Hero Beyond the Gears of Time (Izuku x Kendo)

Ch 23: Beginning of the Internships

Day 1 of internships

Nobody's POV:

"This is it... all of you have your hero costumes right? You're not allowed to wear them in public right now, but make sure you don't lose them."

"GOTCHA!" Mina yelled. The class was currently inside the train station, all ready to go to their respective internships. Izuku and Todoroki were going to Endeavor's agency, Jotaro was going Best Jeanist (why not), along with Bakugou. Momo had changed her form at the last second after Jotaro talked her out of going to Uwubami's agency. She decided to go with Edgeshot, since she received a request from him, much to her confusion. Everyone else went to their respective stations, along with Iida. He had picked the hero manual, one who wouldn't be the first pick for anyone.

Flashback - a day ago

Aizawa was reading through everyone's internship forms, the Pro hero snipe passing by him.

"So the first years are picking their internships?"

"Yeah, some have already chosen where they wanted to go." Aizawa grumbled fishing through each paper.

"Make sure they do it right, some third years are still regretful from picking the wrong agency while they interned for the first time."

Aizawa pulled out a piece of paper with writing only in one box. "Of course." 'Iida?' The scruffy teacher brought his hands closer to his face, reading carefully what the boy had written. 'Why does he only have one agency written down... Manual, in Hosu City?' The pieces came together.

'Don't tell me...'

Flashback end

Iida rushed off after given instructions. He was followed by a worried Izuku and Kendo, while the bicolor haired boy stood back and watched.

"Iida... you really don't seem okay, we're here if you need to talk to us. We want to help." Izuku said to the boy who kept walking, feeling the grip of someone's hand tug at his shoulder. He looked up at Itsuka, who shook her head with a sad gaze. Izuku slumped his shoulders, sighing as the boy walked away.

If only he had gotten through to him... if only he had broken through his shell of rage.

Itsuka had ridden in a different train than Izuku, who had gone off with Todoroki. Before she left them, she was spun around by the greenette, who out of a moment of mixed confidence and affection, gave her the most passionate kiss they had ever shared. One that made it clear he'd miss her dearly, even if it was only for a week. Itsuka wasn't ready for it, Izuku leaving her in a dazed state while he ran off towards the train. Todoroki gave him a pat on the back.

'Damn you Izuku... getting me by surprise.' Itsuka smiled after regaining her senses and boarding her train. Itsuka took her seat by the window, which is of course the best seat, and she felt herself relax while the train began moving. She was already beginning to miss Izuku while she gazed out of the window. Her eyes wandered across the streets and neighborhoods the train passed through. One single, troubling thought lingered in her mind.

'Iida... what's up with you?'

After leaving the station where her destination was at, she traveled through the streets trying to find the address given to her by All Might.

'This guy must be the real deal if All Might shakes at the thought of him.' Itsuka thought, nearing the building of her new mentor for the week. She climbed up the steps, knocking on the door. Her hand pushed opened the door slightly, caving in ever so slightly with a loud creek. 'Well I might as well go in...'
