The next ten months were spent wisely. Mydoria and Toshinori cleared the beach completely and gave you any recyclable parts to build into the entrance exam robots.
———
On the day of the exam, you set up everything using your quirk before heading to the principal's office.
"You wanted to see me mouse man?"
"Miss Nightingale, good morning. I was wondering if you would think about being a full time teacher here. This year's batch will be your age so you can make proper friends," he offered.
"Nezu I've still got the precinct, I can't just ditch them. Sarge is in charge of the task force already, the max I could do is cut my work down so I only go to the station on weekends," you stated already mapping it out in your mind.
"Perfect, that works for me and I'm pretty sure your girlfriend wouldn't mind either," the mouse smirked.
"Damn you and your high specs," you mumbled under your breath.You went to the staff room which had many screens set up to see the examinees.
"And START!" Mic yelled before proceeding to reprimand the startled ones.
"Come on, I missed all of this idiots speech? I make fun of it every year, it's tradition!" You whined.
"Don't worry Nightingale, the students already embarrassed him for you," Shota chuckled.Time passed with friendly banter, remarks about students and critique when your eyes skimmed over a familiar greenette.
"All might, I don't know what you've taught him but he isn't doing well. He's frozen," you muttered to the blondie next to you.
"I haven't taught him to regulate it yet, I was so focused on making him a suitable vessel it slipped my mind."
You sighed. One for All was a difficult power, he needed to have good control of it if he didn't want to break his bones.Just as the thought crossed your mind, the grasshopper decided it would be a good idea to smash the zero pointer successfully breaking both legs and one arm. You noticed something that caused his recklessness, a girl on a pile of rubble was immobilized.
So the kid he's training is an idiot with the heart of a hero huh? They're full of surprises. Maybe this year's batch will be more promising, I don't want to do paperwork just to expel students.
You shuddered at the thought."And TIME'S UP!" the cockatoo announced.
You saw the hundreds of students filing out as the school's grandma gave all the injured a kiss. You made your way down to see her and mentally prepare yourself for the staff meeting."Hey RG, how's it going?" You asked only to be whacked on the head by her cane.
"What the hell grandma?"
"Don't talk to your old lady like that, what were you thinking not visiting the past ten months. Eraserhead had to show pictures of you in the lab just to convince me you were alive and not prancing about in all your vigilante glory," she scolded.
"RG calm down, I'm a hero remember not a vigilante anymore."
She sighed, "That just means you have to throw yourself into danger and there's a higher chance of getting hurt. You're the youngest hero, a baby to us all even if not everyone is open to your past. Stay safe."
"When have I ever done anything unsafe?" Another whack.
"Ow ow, okay fine. Let's go to the meeting, they'll probably want you there," you yelped before spreading your wings and carrying her to the other side of U.A."So on the one hand," you pulled up a picture of Katsuki Bakugo, "there are students who only focused on villain points."
"But on the other, there are students who only passed with rescue points," Toshinori remarked, pulling up a picture of Mydoria.
"Put them both in my class. They each have weaknesses that need to be fixed if they're serious about being successful," you stated.
"Nightingale are you sure? Bakugo I understand but Mydoria didn't show much pizzazz," mic asked.
"I'm sure. They need to improve, Eraser and I can do that. But here are the 13 other students I had my eye on, they all participated well," you changed the topic pulling up pictures of different students. (All except koda, mineta and shoji)
"That's 15 students total, we need 20," Aizawa pointed out.
"I'll pick two recommended tomorrow and here are three others. Neito Monoma, pretty powerful. Hitoshi Shinso, very useful he'd be able to brainwash the bad guys into jail. I just can't think of the last one, no one else caught my eye," you replied quickly."I suggest you take Minoru Mineta into your class, his attitude needs to be changed and you're probably the most capable in that region," Nezu explained.
"He's a womanizer and a pervert, no way I want that in my class. We're at a school for heroes for christ's sake, have you seen his file? His reason to be a hero is to get the gals," you raged.
"I understand your concerns, but please. Then Koji Koda, he can speak with animals which is a useful source of information and sometimes they'll even fight. Then Mezo Shoji, he'll be a great spy," Nezu replied coolly writing down the names and seating order of class 1-A before even giving you time to think."Hey, first day expulsions remember?" Eraserhead tried to cheer you up only to be shut down immediately.
"You also cannot expel any of them. They might prove to be useful assets."
"Fine. We'll keep them, but if anyone does anything out of line they'll be sent home immediately," you bargained.
"Only if my recommended have expulsion immunity," the mouse negotiated.
"Fine."———
The recommendation exams the next day went alright, you chose Shoto Todoroki and Momo Yaoyorozu to be in your class since they showed the most potential to improve.
You knew Shoto through his father and also knew why he refused to use his fire. You'd tried multiple times before but to no avail. You pitied the boy really, losing his mother, his brother dying and his two siblings becoming distant. The last time you saw Fuyumi, she was kind hearted but that didn't mean she wasn't affected. She probably only stood by because she was forced to. Natsuo was severely impacted when-
You broke off the thought and fiddled with your long braid. Natsuo wasn't the only one impacted by his death. You were even closer to him than the ice prince was, you practically grew up with him. He was your only friend other than Hawks. He braided your hair all the time so when his untimely passing came, you wore your hair in a single braid as tribute. When they hunted you down as a vigilante, the only recognisable things were your fedora and your braid.
You sighed. Hopefully Shoto Todoroki wouldn't remind you too much of Touya Todoroki.
A/N: chapter 2 end, hints to your backstory. Do you guys like it so far? Any way I can improve? This is my first fanfic so I'm open to suggestions. Thanks for reading <3
