16 Chapter 15

First POV

*time skip everyone is healed and changed into casual clothes at the heights alliance*

"Why were we all called out here, kero?" Asui asked, tilting her head.

All the students were sitting down in the common area either on the floor or the furniture and I was standing in front of them with Nezu on my right and Aizy on my left.

"We are here to introduce a new transfer student to you," Nezu started. He looked at me, "Would you please introduce yourself to the class?"

I stepped forward and introduced tiredly, "Hello, my name is Alex Kurosaki and I will be joining your class from now on."

Sonic raised his hand. I looked at him, "Yes?"

"I'm sorry if this may come off as rude, but I can't help, but notice that you seem as if you don't want to be here," he stated.

I chuckled, "Yeah, cause I don't. It wasn't my choice to be here."

"Why's that?" a purple-haired boy that looked like Aizy's kid said with his arms crossed leaning back on the couch.

"Alex here was actually brought here by me," Nezu spoke up, "They are part of a new rehabilitation program we were thinking about putting in place. In other words a lab rat."

"Ironically you say that," I said under my breath.

"What do you mean by rehabilitation program?" a girl with a round face and brown hair asked.

"Well," the white capybara started, "we at UA have decided to take in young wrongdoers that show potential, and we hope to make them into heroes." I grinned at the class, their faces awash with surprise. Great, they're gonna hate me. I mean I'm used to it now, but still.

"S-So what did you do?" Stuttered the pink girl.

"It's kinda complicated, well not really, ok well, I killed 250 people. But I only killed people who did bad things, I was always careful, I always made sure that they had done something bad, I never killed innocents." I let that sink in, watching the fear flood their faces, some kids went white, the blood rushing out of their face. Shit, I knew I wouldn't make friends here.

The room was silent, finally, the yellow-haired kid spoke, it was stuttering and quiet but at least it was something," H-Have we heard of y-you?"

"I called myself Zavage, I'm the one who killed Endeavor." I looked at Todoroki, his different colored eyes met mine and I saw what looked like appreciation in them. "I know you all probably hate me but, I swear I'll never do anything to hurt any of you guys." That didn't seem to help, but it was true, if it could help me stay out of jail then I wouldn't.

"It's not like they could hurt you anyway," Aizy sighed, "They have on a bracelet that cancels out their quirk, and the choker they're wearing doubles as a tracking device and shock collar," he held up his hand showing the small remote control, "If they do anything to hurt any of you, then I have full reign to shock and stop them from doing so."

I could swear I saw a dark sort of anticipation in his eyes, my teacher wants to zap me. Great.

"You're just waiting to zap me aren't you?" I asked, glaring at him.

He smirked, "I mean it would be good payback from when you stabbed my shoulder."

"W-Wait you s-stabbed him in the shoulder?" the broccoli boy asked timidly.

I looked over at him, "Remember that day just over a week ago when he came to class with bandages on him with seemingly no explanation?"

He nodded.

"Yeah, that was me," I said pointing a finger at my chest.

"Don't act so smug, if I remember correctly I'm the one who won that fight," Aizy cut in.

I hmphed and turned away from him, "Whatever, you used an underhanded move and you're still the one who got more injured in the end."

He was about to retort my statement, but Nezu cut him off, "Stop bickering you two, whether you like it or not you will have to get along."

I sighed deeply, "Fine."

Aizy grumbled, "Fine."

Nezu sighed then smiled, "Alright now that introductions are out of the way, you may enjoy the rest of your day!"

I smiled then walked to the elevator. Before the doors closed I held up two fingers, "See ya suckers."

Aizawa POV

Alex left to go to their room in the elevator. Once the doors closed I sighed, "I swear that problem child is gonna be the death of me…"

Nezu laughed beside me, "They just aren't opening up yet. Remember they are a difficult case so don't blame them for being apprehensive."

I grumbled. I'll give them a chance then.

Nezu left and the room erupted in conversation.

"Mr.Aizawa do you really think having a villain here is responsible!?" Iida shouted.

"T-They killed 250 people…" Yaoyarozu said sadly.

"Could they be a spy for the league?" Ojiro asked no one in particular.

"I wonder what their quirk is? Do you know Midoriya?" Kirishima asked him.

"I-I don't know for sure, b-but I think it's some sort of body enhancement q-quirk." answered Midoriya a bit unsure.

"Todoroki how do you feel about them being here, kero?" Asui asked.

The room went silent as they all looked at the half and half boy. They and even myself were expecting an outburst or some hints of sadness. But instead, he just shrugged and walked to the elevator.

I sighed then left myself, I don't have the time nor energy to deal with these kids right now. I want my coffee and my sleeping bag.

First POV

I plopped onto my bad face-first into the pillows. Well, that went well! They probably hate me or want me gone. And Todoroki, I don't know if he's sad or happy about what I did though when he looked at me I saw gratitude in his eyes.

I groaned as I turned to lay flat on my back. Why did I even come here? What made me agree to this!? Sure, having no criminal record is nice, but seriously why!? I should've just declined and when they went to transport me to a facility, that's when I should've escaped instead of going to a school full of heroes and heroes in training.

I heard a knock on the other side of my door. I assumed it was one of the heroes or Nezu since the students don't know my dorm number. I answered, "Come in."

Though the person I least expected was there, "Todoroki!?" my eyes met his mismatched eyes as I looked at him, "What the hell are you doing here and how the hell did you get my dorm number."

He closed the door behind him, "One, process of elimination, and two, I came to thank you."

"Thank me? What would y-" the realization hit me, "Oh, right. You're welcome I guess?" I said awkwardly with my hand rubbing the back of my neck.

I looked back up at him and we made eye contact. It was a bit awkward for a moment until he spoke up again, "I wanted to thank you, you must've figured out what he was doing, and yet even though it had nothing to do with you, you still helped me and my family out. So, I rea-"

"You're welcome," I said smiling, though the smile was replaced with a frown "But before you think I'm a savior, I did do it for your family, but also for myself."

He looked at me surprised, "What do you mean?"

"You can't tell anyone this alright," I stated firmly, "I while ago I was also hurt by him."

I rolled up my sleeves a bit to show the burn scars from that day. They aren't as prominent as they were all those years ago, but you could still slightly see the texture and discoloration of them, "A long time ago there was a villain attack. The villain wanted to hide in our house until the heroes were gone and told us not to make a sound. However, Endeavor came to our "rescue" and we were caught in the crossfire, I'm the only one who managed to escape. The rest of my family was burned and killed protecting me."

I felt my eyes water, then something unexpected happened, I felt arms wrap around my shoulders. I hesitantly hugged back as we sat there in silence. I laughed a bit, "So, you like Midoriya huh?"

He tensed which only made me smile, "I figured it out by how your body tensed when me and him fought earlier and how you subtly stared and glanced at him in the common room. Don't worry though I support you two."

We pulled apart, he had light pink dust on his cheeks, "Do you think he might like me back?" he asked quietly, practically a whisper.

I pat him on the shoulder, "I say to shoot your shot with him and see how it goes."

He smiled slightly, "Thank you um-"

"Just call me Alex, I've never been one for the last name and honorific thing."

"In that case, call me Shoto."

"Alright Shoto," after a second I smirked again, "So, how do you plan to confess to the little broccoli?"

Shoto stuttered a bit and I laughed, "I'm just messing with ya," I looked at the clock and saw that fifteen minutes had gone by, "You should probably go back to your dorm or with your classmates, see ya later."

He walked out the door, "Bye Alex." (a/n: Hecate just unlocked a New Achievement: Friendship) (a/n from other author: skskjfgjfshgkjd a true inspiration.)
