Celebration

'Provisional License Authorizing Hero Activities. Natsu Dragneel. Hero Name: Fire Dragon: Igneel.'

I look down at my provisional license with a blank expression, 'I mean, yay, I guess.'

Unlike my classmates, my feelings towards my license were less exciting and more confusing, 'After fighting Gang Orca, I realized something… there aren't as many people who can put up a good fight against me…'

Letting out a sigh, I look up at the air, 'I wonder, are they're stronger villains in America or one of the other countries.'

Then I feel someone jump on my back and wrap their arms around me, "Hey, Natsu!"

A smile forms on my face, "Hello, Momo. Are you happy that you got your provisional license?"

She nods her head with a smile, "Mmhmm, now I can legally assist during a crisis. What about you?"

I shrug my shoulders, "Well, I guess I can beat up villains legally."

She chuckles, "You never change, I heard you beat up Gang Orca."

"Just doing my job as a hero."

She raises a skeptical eyebrow, "A hero, huh?"

Dropping to my knees, I clutch my chest in mock pain, "Argh, my own girlfriend doubts me, it hurts."

At the same time, I can hear Aizawa and Ms. Joke talking, "Eraser! Since we got the chance to meet again, want to set up a joint practice sometime?"

Our teacher nods his head, "Yeah, that would be good."

Ms. Joke gives a glance over in my direction and whispers into Aizawa's ear, but it still doesn't escape my hearing, "Maybe, if possible, could you tell Dragneel to hold back? It's a good experience for them to fight or work with stronger people, but Dragneel is a monster. If he uses that much power as he did before…"

He smirks, "Yes, our pride and joy. But I have two things to tell you, one, he didn't even tap into all of his power. Maybe against that team, he used fifty percent or less, but honestly, I don't know his limits either."

Ms. Joke gives Aizawa a deadpan expression and Aizawa continues, "And two, Dragneel can hear our conversation right now, right, Natsu?"

She turns suddenly and looks over at us, "Eh?"

I rub the back of my head and smile shamelessly, "My bad, just a habit."

Aizawa rolls his eyes and shoo's me away. I start looking around when a certain group catches my attention.

I start running over to them, "Yo!"

The group turns and the tallest one smiles at me, "Dragneel, it's good to see you again."

I wave at Kenichi, "Well, you guys put up a good fight, so I thought it would be worth meeting up with you guys again. Also, you don't need to go through the formalities with me, you can just call me Natsu."

Kenichi nods and smiles, "Then you can just call me Kenichi.

AN: For reference, Kenichi is Ryujin. Yuki is Yuki or Haku. Kemuri is Smoker. Jin is Gilgamesh, and Reiju is Reiju.

Jin glares at me as he sees Momo on my back, and doesn't say anything. Kemuri just yawns and waves slightly. Yuki bows in my direction and Reiju smiles and waves at me.

Putting my hands behind my head, I nod towards the rows of buses, "Heading back to… Miyagi?"

Kenichi nods, "Yup, we'll probably get an earful from our teacher for almost failing the first stage, but," he smiles at me, "I'd say it was justified."

I returned the smile, "Yeah, it was fun. I had fought against powerful people before in groups, but their teamwork was sloppy and uncoordinated. Fighting against you guys was refreshing."

Kenichi offers his hand, "On our own, I doubt we will ever be able to defeat you, in fact, even as a team, I doubt we will beat you. But one day… we will give you a fight that you will remember for the rest of your life."

The others all look at me with determined glares, their previous expressions, gone.

I smile confidently and shake his hand, "I look forward to that then."

Heading back to my class, my eyes are drawn to Shiketsu, 'Ho? Camie is still here, so that means Toga didn't take over her… Good thing I didn't kill her. Well, why send out Toga when Gray can probably do the same thing more efficiently and without being seen.'

Aizawa looks over at us, "Oy, get on the bus! We are heading back!"

"Yes sir!"

A few hours later, everyone is chilling in the common area, smiles all over, and red plastic cups full of soda and juice. Boxes of pizza, noodles, and chips were all across the table, and a bowl of curry was in my hands.

Kaminari was looking dejectedly at his now empty wallet, "My poor money…"

Kirishima slaps his back, "Don't worry, my stomach appreciates the money you spent."

Out of the corner of my eyes, I see Bakugo bump into Izuku, "Oy, meet me in the front later… Let's have a talk about your quirk."

I take a sip of soda, 'So, it's happening tonight… maybe I'll..'

Momo looks at me suspiciously, "Natsu, what are you planning?"

I look at her in surprise, "Planning? What do you mean?"

She sighs, "You have that same smile you always do when you are plotting something."

I put my hand to my face and put my hand to my mouth, and I could feel the traces of a smile, "You don't need to worry about it too much."

After the party ended, I went to my room on the fourth floor and waited for a few minutes before climbing out of my window and flying to the roof, 'Now to play the waiting game.'

Popping my earbuds in, I sat atop the building's "1-A" sign, listening to random songs.

'Straight out the East blue, Call me Luffy, I'm a beast too Anybody you speak to will you tell you what I've been through.'

Then I see movement below me as Izuku and Bakugo both start walking outside "Looks like it's time."

AN: Been reading bleach. Finished the Ulquiorra vs Hollow Ichigo, ngl the ending was kinda anticlimactic and Ichigo is too optimistic, but that's shonen, or maybe I've read too many fanfics with cold MCs.

Also, just curious, anyone listens to anime rap? Some of that stuff is better than some mainstream shit
