Just wanted to say I do not have an update schedule, chapters get done when they get done. I do work full time so I can't write as much as I want to, but I try to get enough in a day.

Here is the next chapter! Hope you enjoy.

Chapter Two:

Ichigo sighed as he rested his bag over his shoulder while he walked the halls of his new school for heroes in training. The teen is currently wearing U.A. High's uniform, a grey blazer which is open revealing the white dress shirt underneath. A red tie hung loosely around his neck in a lazy fashion.

The halls are filled with students who are heading to their homeroom for their first year at U.A. High. The teen turned a corner and could see other first-year classrooms. His eyes read all of the room numbers until he got to his. "1-A" Ichigo read out loud, turning the knob and he pushed the door open to reveal the classroom which had around eighteen desks. There were already a few students sitting at a few desks.

A familiar voice got his attention, "Ah Ichigo! It seems fate has brought us to the same class!" It was the voice of Iida, he couldn't forget him since he has an interesting personality.

"Yo Tenya. Didn't expect to be in the same class as you." Ichigo said honestly. He walked to the adjacent desk to Iida's and dropped his bag in the hook attached to his desk. "You're here early."

"I wanted to make a great first impression!" The glasses wearing teen said while striking a pose. Which got a questionable raised eyebrow from Ichigo, who noticed that his friend is

The orange haired teen sat at the desk next to Iida's. Which he assumes it's first come, first serve. "Right. I don't think that would of been necessary since our teacher isn't here." He gestured to the front of the room where the teacher's desk is currently empty. The presence of their homeroom teacher is completely missing from the room.

Iida pushed his glasses back up on his face as Ichigo brought revelation to him. "I see, you have a point…"

Just then the door flew open and blonde teen walked in. His whole demeanor screamed overconfidence, just by the way he walked. He held a scowl on his face which could rival Ichigo's. Almost. His red eyes glanced over the current students chatting away, or just killing time by browsing on their phones. He scoffed lightly and took a seat diagonally in front of Ichigo.

The blonde teen lazily threw his bag on the ground and leaned back in his chair while resting his feet on the desk. Tenya took offense almost instantly, "How dare you! Remove your foot from that desk right this instant." Iida stood up from his seat and marched over to the blonde teen who gave Iida a glare. "That is disrespectful for all of those came to U.A before us, as well to the craftsman who made the desk!"

"You think I care?" He put his foot down and leaned on the desk, his glare never wavering. The red-eyed teen then laughed loudly. "What middle school are you from, extra?"

Iida was taken back by his loud personality. "I-I'm from Somei Private Academy. My name is Tenya Iida." The other teen just laughed loudly again, leaning more forward towards Iida.

"Names Bakugo Katsuki!" Bakugo declared, "You're a stuck-up elitist? I should just blow you to bits, just to show you that I'm better than any elitist!"

Tenya didn't know what to say, no one has come right out and told him that they will blow him to bits. Being surprised is an understatement, Tenya was horrified. "T-That's awful! It's hard to believe that you want to become a hero!"

Ichigo looked amused at the whole situation. He can tell Bakugo is messing with Iida in his own sick way of joking. But the sound of the door opening caught Ichigo's attention. A small teen could be seen peeking around the doorframe, a plain looking teen. His green messy hair is what really sticks out about him, it was almost like his hair was never tamed.

Iida was the one that greeted the short teen, "I'm from Somei Academy—" Iida began but was interrupted by the shorter teen.

"I-I heard you already." The plain-looking boy said, "I'm Midoriya Izuku, nice to meet you Iida." Izuku looked timid but that was understandable since Tenya's personality is the kind that's all in your face.

Iida and Izuku got into a conversation about the exam they took. 'Must of been in the same exam group.' Ichigo thought to himself as he leaned on his hand on the desk. Izuku looked slightly nervous talking to the glasses wearing teen as if he was unsure what to say to Iida. Then the classroom door opened once more, and a cheery voice could be heard.

"Oh! I know that curly hair!" The owner of the voice made Izuku jolt upwards. "You're the plain looking boy! I'm glad you made it to U.A too!" A short girl walked in with a warm smile on her lips. Her brown eyes matched the color of her hair which was styled in a bob haircut which curved inwards at the ends. She also sported the female version of the school uniform that Ichigo has seen around the school.

Then the teen had a realization, "Oh! I never told you my name! I'm Uraraka Orchaco, pleased to meet you!" The smile never leaving Uraraka's lips, which seemed to draw Izuku in further. He was already smitten with the other teen.

Tenya rejoined Ichigo at his desk, "It seems a few students from my exam made it to the same class as me." Iida said sitting down next to Ichigo who gave a glance in his direction. "Some of their quirks are very interesting- Ah! That reminds me, I have not seen yours, Ichigo!"

Ichigo waved it off like it wasn't a big deal. "Yeah, maybe you'll see it. It's a mix between my old man's and my mother's." He said with a subtle, yet sad tone to his voice but his eyes narrowed as if he is remembering a horrible incident. Tenya seemed to catch it and opened his mouth to apologize, but then a man in a sleeping bag made him do a double take.

"If you're here just to socialize, then get out." The man in the sleeping bag said as he stood up, Ichigo assumed this was their teacher. "This is the Hero course, I don't want any kind of slacking off."

As he spoke more students filed in, Ichigo didn't recognize which meant they didn't make an impact on him at all. There was one girl who gave him a light glare from something he must have said before but dismissed it quickly. The man finally unzipped the sleeping bag which he stepped out of and Ichigo never seen someone looked so worn out before. He is a tall slender man with shoulder-length black hair, his eyes are half-lidded as if he didn't get any sleep in the past week. The worn out man sports a ragged black outfit that consists of a long-sleeved shirt and matching pants that tuck into his boots. He also wears a utility belt and a long scarf around his neck.

"It took you eight seconds for everyone to quiet down. Time is precious. It seems that you lot aren't rational." He said as he sipped on what looked like a juice box. "I'm your homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa. I guess I'm pleased to meet you." Aizawa then tucked his sleeping bag away and pulled out a box. "Quickly put these on and head out to the grounds."

The women of the class screamed at the men to get out while they got changed. They were justified since some of the guys of their class did come off as pervy. Ichigo had other thoughts in his head and it revolved around their homeroom teacher. Shota Aizawa.

Class 1-A now stood on the grounds where Aizawa advise them to go. Everyone is in their gym uniforms which are supplied by U.A. Aizawa stood in front of them with tired eyes as he put eye drops in, then he coughed into his hand.

"We will be doing a test of quirks."

"What about the entrance ceremony and guidance sessions?!" Ochaco expressed her concerns about what most of the other students thinking about. Any normal homeroom teacher would bring their students to the entrance ceremony but this isn't a normal school. U.A is a school to train heroes, not to educate for a normal nine-to-five job.

"Those are a waste of time if you want to become heroes," Aizawa said as his eyes traveled between each student. "U.A is known for its 'Freestyle' educational system. That applies to us teachers as well." Hearing this made most of his students go wide-eyed, it's unheard of to have such a reckless teaching method but it must work. Since the top heroes are big shots and not to mention powerful.

The silent students gave Aizawa the signal to continue. "We will be doing a few events, softball throwing, the standing long jump, the fifty-meter dash, endurance running, grip strength, side to side stepping and seated toe touch." Eraser Head counted off the number of events they will be doing but there is a catch. "You did these in middle school, correct? They are your standard no-quirks-allowed gym events. Unfortunately, this country still insists on prohibiting quirks when calculating the averages of those records. It's absurd."

Aizawa sighed to himself and continued since no one had any questions yet. His eyes glanced over to Ichigo who stood in the back of the group since he was one of the few tallest in the class. "I'll use who did the best on the exam for a demonstration." Bakugo stepped forward with a smirk but Aizawa frowned at the teen. "That was not you, Bakugo. The one who did best on the exam is, Kurosaki Ichigo."

Bakugo was surprised then he turned to the orange haired teen and shot him a death glare which Ichigo gladly returned but accompanied with a scowl."What the hell! How did he do the best one the exam?! How many points did carrot top get?!"

Ichigo clenched his fist in anger, he had enough out of this loud mouth. But Aizawa beat him to it. "Kurosaki-san here scored a hundred points on the exam." Once that left the middle-aged man's mouth the other students began murmuring amongst each other. They were all wondering how strong is Kurosaki Ichigo and where did he come from.

Yaoyorozu Momo narrowed her eyes suspiciously at the orange haired teen, and she held her chin in her hand.'He was in my exam group, but was pulled away for an urgent matter. Kurosaki-san was pulled away by Aizawa, but the question is why? Did he do a different exam? If so, what was it?' Momo thought as her eyes followed the teen in question. He is currently a mystery since she knew Ichigo wasn't from this city but from Karakura Town which is a good ways away. It adds more of a mystery to him.

"How far did you throw in middle school, Kurosaki-san ?" Aizawa asked while throwing him a softball.

Ichigo shrugged as he walked in the circle, there are lines further out which indicates how many meters the ball is thrown. "Roughly around seventy meters." He said honestly. Behind him Ichigo can hear the frustration from Bakugo, he is muttering curses under his breath how Aizawa made a fool out of him.

"That's good," Aizawa said. "Now begin. Use your quirk but don't leave the circle." He watched closely since he is up close to Ichigo, Aizawa can see how his quirk actually works.

Ichigo let out a breath as he activated his quirk. Black energy began to come out of his chest and covered his body in a protective shroud. The shroud covered his body from the neck down forming the shihakusho, but instead of his sword that it formed it covered his hands. His new appearance got a few surprises from his new classmates, Ichigo could hear Izuku muttering to himself as he made mental notes on Ichigo's Quirk. Now gripping the softball with new strength, Ichigo pulled his arm back.

The orange haired teen could feel all the muscles in his arm begin to strain as he threw the ball with unreal strength. It was as if the ball was a bullet leaving Ichigo's hand. Once it got far enough in the air, no one could see it. But Aizawa was looking at the screen of his phone and it had a reading on it.

"Looks like the softball made contact with the ground," Aizawa said as he turned it around to show everyone. Holding the phone, he held it so the whole class can see the screen. "710.6 meters. That's how much a quirk can help boost someone's abilities in these events."

"Awesome! So we can use our quirks for real?! Aw man the hero course is great!" A student with red hair said as he clenched his fist. A grin is on his lips showing the excitement he held now.

Aizawa turned fully towards his students. "Awesome, you say? You all are going to become heroes after three years here. But you think this will be fun and games?" The look in his eyes gave off a eerie feeling in the students of class 1-A. "We will do this. Whoever scores the lowest across all of the eight will be judged hopeless and will be expelled."

There was outrage among the young students. Calling it absurd and ridiculous. But Aizawa's smile never wavered from his face. Overall now the students with the weaker quirks are nervous while the ones with stronger ones aren't as nervous. "Your fate is in my hands." Aizawa ran a hand through his hair showing his eyes fully, a grin on his face which looked like it didn't belong there. "Welcome to the Hero course at U.A High!"

The first event was the fifty-meter dash. There are starter blocks at the starting line which is marked by white chalk and two lanes that are also marked by the same white chalk. Down by the finish line, there is a camera and a small speaker to call out times as the participants. Ichigo and Iida were stretching at the starting line when the orangette noticed the exhaust pipes coming out of Iida's calves. He wasn't sure how he didn't notice before since it sticks out like a sore thumb, also it makes his calves ridiculously huge.

"Good luck, Kurosaki-kun!" Iida said as he revved his engine which resided in his in calves. It's only natural that Iida has incredible speed, Ichigo does have speed but just nothing absurd but he will try his best to keep up.

"Yeah, you too Tenya." Ichigo said as he activated his quirk once more. The pressure of it on his muscles could be felt, a new source of energy flowed through his veins as the shihakusho formed over his body. The two teens put their feet in the starting blocks. Their left foot is both in front while their right foot staggered back a bit. Their fingers rested on the ground right before the starting line as if they are about to run an Olympic event.

Since Ichigo and Tenya are in the ready formation they can hear the computerized voice giving them the commands for the event. "Runners, on your mark! Get set!" Both teen's rear ends stuck up and leaned forward feeling gravity trying to pull them forward into the ground. The sound of the starting gun signaled the teen's to take off running. The muscles in Ichigo's legs burned from how his quirk is enhancing his leg strength.

Even with the help of his quirk, Tenya easily passed Ichigo with such speed that he crossed the finish line almost two seconds before Ichigo. It was a defeat but he saw it coming. Ichigo figured Tenya's quirk would enhance his speed but he didn't realize by how much.

"Three-point zero-three seconds!"

"Four point ninety-eight seconds!"

Ichigo let out a breath of air, "I didn't realize how fast you were." He said while the shroud over his body began to dissolve off of him. "That's a great quirk." Ichigo praised which made Tenya rubbed the back of his neck.

"It seems like your quirk is a jack of all trades. Good strength and decent speed. What is it called?" Iida asked while adjusting his glasses, watching as the black substance dissolve into nothing.

"It's called Battle Shroud. When it covers my body, I become faster and stronger, as it gives me a defensive layer. But it does have drawbacks." Ichigo explained as they walked to the side to watch the rest of their classmates do the event next.

Tenya looked very interested in Ichigo's quirk, "Amazing. I have never heard of a quirk that was able to do that. This is the first. You said it's a mix between your parents?" To which Ichigo nodded his head, "You must have some powerful quirks that run in your family!"

"Yeah, something like that," Ichigo said, but then he changed the subject. "Are you related to Ingenium at all? He has a quirk similar as you." Tenya was surprised that someone was able to figure that out but more surprised Ichigo knew who Ingenium is. But it was bound to happen since they both have the Engine quirk.

"Why yes! He is my brother actually. Our whole family has the Engine quirk but I am honestly surprised that you figured that out."

"Hey. Hey. Don't need to bring me down like that, I do pay attention to the hero world in Japan so I know a thing or two."

"Ah! I am sorry, Kurosaki-san! I didn't mean to offend you at all!"

Ichigo waved it off with a slight chuckle, "I was kidding. You are fun to mess with once in a while."

The other students were quickly finished with the first event and started to gather around each other once again. Class 1-A is waiting on Aizawa to lead them to the next event, to pass the time the students began talking about their fellow classmate's quirks. Ichigo was staring in the sky to pass the time when a short girl approached him. He didn't notice since she is right out of his vision.

"Kurosaki-san, I presume? Seems we will be sharing the same class this year."

The teen blinked and looked down at the girl, and cocked an eyebrow. Before him stood a short girl, her black hair is shoulder length with several strands of hair hanging in front of her face. But what caught his attention was the icy stare but it didn't seem hostile. "Huh? Who the hell are you?" Ichigo said which the short teen took offense to the taller teen's vulgar attitude.

"How do you not know! I am Kuchiki Rukia, my brother is Kuchiki Byakuya!" Rukia shouted which drew some attention their way which already sparked some murmurs among their class.

"You act like I should know who that is, short stuff."

Once those words left his mouth, he felt an incredible pain in his shin and he hissed while pulling his knee up to his chest. His hands reached down and rubbed the pain away, "Damn it! That hurt! You don't go around kicking people in the shins!" Ichigo seethed as he put his foot back on the ground.

"You're lucky I let that disrespect slide otherwise I would freeze you," Rukia said her violet eyes narrowing down at Ichigo.

Ichigo was surprised by the threat. He expected something like this from Bakugo over this girl but then Ichigo smirked. "I would love to see you try." Rukia looked surprised but then smirked while holding up her hand and even standing over a foot away from her Ichigo could feel the harsh cold aura she gave off. The air around him seem to get colder by the second even though it's the beginning of April.

"N-Now lets calm down, Rukia." A taller girl approached Rukia from behind, "All this fighting is unnecessary!" Ichigo's eyes now glanced at the taller girl, and Ichigo remembered where he had seen her before. The girl calming Rukia down is the girl from the exam group he was supposed to be in, she was the one who was exposing plenty of her skin.

"Ah! Yaoyorozu-san I apologize. I forgot myself there for a moment." Rukia said while deactivating her quirk which relieved the cold air Ichigo was feeling. She did this while looking sheepishly at Momo and Ichigo.

"I'm confused." Ichigo rubbed the back of his neck. He honestly has no idea what is happening right now. Rukia made it feel like she was going to attack him and now she is almost acting sheepishly as if she didn't mean to threaten him.

Momo had a sheepish look on her face, "Rukia is just looking for a rival to push her to push her beyond her limits, so she decided to pick you as that rival since you did the best on the entrance exam." She said, as her calculating eyes stared at Ichigo. Momo didn't want to poke and prod at him right now about how he got a perfect score on the exam.

"You could have just come out and said that, moron!"

"Moron?! The only moron here is you!" Rukia said as she poked him in the chest. Momo let out a sigh as she watched the two bark insults back and forth, while the other students around them looked on amusedly. They were actually relieved to know that the student who placed first in their class isn't a stuck up jerk or someone who jokes about killing his classmates.

Momo sighed. There is nothing she can do to help the situation at all, but Ichigo first one to turn away from Rukia. He is now looking over at Momo. "You were in my exam group, weren't you?" He said while getting the attention of Momo back onto him.

"Yeah, that's right. You told me to put some clothes on." Momo crosses her arms while arching an eyebrow. Waiting on a response from her new classmate.

Ichigo rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "W-Well. I wasn't expecting someone bold enough to show that much skin. Sorry about that." The way he said that made him sound genuine about his apology which caught Momo by surprise.

Rukia was about to scold Ichigo for his brashness, but Momo began talking before the shorter girl could. "Well, it's alright," Momo said forgiving him. "I need my skin to be exposed for my quirk to work. Otherwise, my clothes would rip every time I used it."

"That makes sense then. To have as much skin exposed as possible." Ichigo said it would be annoying each time you used your quirk that it destroyed your clothes. He can see why she exposed her skin like that now.

"Looks like Aizawa-sensei is done with the results. Guess the next event is happening soon." Momo said as her eyes followed the worn out man, who gave the order to follow him to the gymnasium.

"Kurosaki-san. Do you actually believe Aizawa-sensei will expel who does the worst in these events?" Rukia said while the three of them followed the other students into the gymnasium.

Ichigo ran his hand through his hair as he thought about his response. As they walked the boy could feel the gazes of both girls he is currently with, which doesn't help. It adds more pressure to the response he is putting together. "I think, he can't expel someone for performing the worst on these events. I mean— he can't have that kind of power, can he? He's a teacher, not the principal or someone with that kind of power in the school." Bringing his hand he rubbed the back of head now. A habit he picked up when he was younger when he would be put on the spot. "I think it's a ploy to try to bring out the potential of our quirks if we are put under pressure like the chance of being expelled."

Momo was slightly surprised. From how Ichigo presents himself, intelligent wasn't one of them if she was being honest. She suspected he acted more or a delinquent but under that is a keen boy who has a short temper by how he interacted with Rukia. But Rukia did come off strongly towards him, he was defending himself which is understandable.

"I figured that out when Aizawa-sensei was giving us the lecture," Momo said. As they talked, the faculty of U.A walked around giving each student a device. The device is to calculate how much their grip strength is in kilograms. The long-haired teen examined the device as she spoke. "He is giving us a motivator to draw out our potential with our quirks. Aizawa-sensei then would determine how much we are able to grow— as a student and as a future hero."

"Best of luck on the future events, Yaoyorozu-san, Kurosaki-san!" Rukia said as she took her grip device across the gymnasium floor. The teen wanted to focus on the task at hand since strength isn't her strong suit and didn't want her classmates to see her results of the event.

Momo opened her gym jacket, and her chest is covered of course by a black sports bra. Her stomach began to glow and a gauntlet began to come out her. Which was amazing to Ichigo's amazement, he has never seen anything like this. The gauntlet now laid in her hands, and she started to put it on her right hand. The silver gauntlet went the length of her forearm to her hand, it looked like it was part of an exoskeleton suit. With a squeeze to the device, it read: 400.72 kilograms.

"That's a handy quirk, Momo," Ichigo said while he squeezed his grip device with the help of his quirk. The orange haired teen's own device read: 384.26 kilograms. Of course that his quirk helped me with that if he did that without it he would be considered a freakishly strong quirkless person. The black shroud around him whipped aggressively around him, it didn't seem to follow laws of physics since there is no wind that could make it whip around like that. Momo didn't want to ask how it worked.

"Thanks, Kurosaki-san!"

Over the course of the events, Ichigo did well in all of them. Being athletic plus the help of Battle Shroud it looked like he will be in the top three at least. What really surprised him was, he lost the softball throw. Ochaco won by making the ball float all the way in the atmosphere, Aizawa ended up giving her the score of Infinity.

Before Izuku threw the softball earlier but only went forty-six meters, that was when Aizawa erased the short boy's quirk. Of course, he blinked to let Izuku have his quirk back. From where Ichigo stood he couldn't hear what the conversation between the two was about. All he could tell it was Aizawa scolding the young teen or giving him instructions.

On the second wind up from Izuku, he surprised everyone there. The softball was like a rocket and even separated a few clouds in the sky. "Holy shit," Ichigo said out loud, which was suppose to be to himself. The final score that Izuku got in the softball throw was 710.84 meters which just beat Ichigo's score barely.

"Language!" Some student said, which Ichigo obviously ignored.

The ball did make contact with the ground since Aizawa showed his score which read: seven hundred and five point three meters. The only one upset about the success of Izuku was Katsuki. He is shaking with anger and resentment. The loudmouth teen then took off running, using his quirk to propel himself faster towards the timid boy.

"Deku! What the hell is this?! Explain yourself!" Katsuki screamed as he launched himself forward. But that came to a stop as he is wrapped in Aizawa's scarf. "What..?" the short-tempered teen said, "This cloth is stiff!"

"You guys are really going to make me keep using my quirk? Geez." Aizawa said with an annoyed tone in his voice. "Just stop trying to use them on each other- I saw that earlier Kuchiki-san." There was a 'My apologies!' somewhere off in the back of the group of students. "You guys are seriously giving me dry eye, now come on. One last event then we can go over the results." Once Katsuki calmed down, Aizawa gladly released him to rejoin the rest of the class again.

The rest of the events were easy for Ichigo, basic physical events which his quirk excels in. Anything physical he can do more than proficient some other students had trouble but others did almost as well as he did. Surprising Ichigo, Momo did the best in the majority since she used her high intellect to find a way to overcome the difficulties she would have had. Rukia also did fairly well, as well as Todoroki Shoto. Shoto's and Rukia have similar quirks, that's what brought the usually quiet teen to actually strike up a conversation with Rukia.

Now the class of 1-A stood before Aizawa who held a remote in his hand. He is ready to show the results of how everyone did. Ichigo stood with, Tenya, Rukia, and Momo. Tenya seemed anxious as well as Izuku and Ochaco, when Aizawa began speaking. Everyone started to listen intently on what he had to say about the results. "Now let's move along. Time for the results."

Silence. No one dared to try to speak, plenty of the students were nervously waiting on the results and how well they did. Seeing no one is going to interrupt him, Aizawa continued. "Your total scores will reflect on how well you did in each of the events. Explaining the process would waste time. So all you get is the final rankings."

He then clicked on the remote and a hologram appeared in front of him. "Oh yeah. I was lying about expelling someone." Aizawa then chuckled darkly as he watched the flabbergasted faces on some of his students. They all still didn't say anything, their eyes were wide as they stared at their homeroom teacher. "That was a ration deception meant to bring the best out of you and your abilities. Which it seemed to work!"

"What?!" Tenya exclaimed. He and the other students were surprised and slightly annoyed that Aizawa told them that white lie. A good amount of them believed they were going to get expelled if they did come in last!

"It was pretty obvious that was a lie, Tenya." Ichigo said which got the attention of Tenya. "It didn't take much to figure out." Ichigo then glanced over at Izuku who basically crying and the face he was making. Ichigo was amazed by how it contorted like that.

The rankings went: 1. Yaoyorozu Momo 2. Kurosaki Ichigo 3. Todoroki Shoto 4. Bakugo Katsuki 5. Kuchiki Rukia 6. Iida Tenya 7. Tokoyami Fumikage 8. Shoji Mezo 9. Ojiro Mashirao 10. Kirishima Eijiro 11. Ashido Mina 12. Uraraka Ochaco 13. Koda Koji 14. Sato Rikido 15. Asui Tsuyu 16. Aoyama Yuga 17. Kaminari Denki 18. Jiro Kyouka 19. Hagakure Toru 20. Midoriya Izuku.

Izuku stared at the results, and now it's official. He is literally starting at the bottom, the boy has to climb his way up the rankings. Izuku wants to prove himself to All Might that he can use the quirk he is given to him as if it's his own!

Aizawa then gave Izuku a nurse pass. "Go to Recovery Girl and get healed up. Tomorrow's trials won't get any easier." The student gladly took the pass and headed towards back into the school before his class. Izuku is happy to get his finger healed, doing all of those events with a broken finger was making his results worse than they would of been. Even if his results were all below average, he couldn't use his quirk to its full potential. The young teen would ultimately destroy his body again since he doesn't have a grasp on how to control One for All.

Izuku didn't waste any time to get to recovery girl leaving the rest of his class behind with Aizawa. He ran back into U.A High while holding his finger in place, which didn't look pretty. Ichigo got a good look Izuku's finger and it made him cringe, to Ichigo the shorter teen's finger looked broken in multiple places. The orange haired teen wondered how Izuku is not used to his quirk if he had it since he was at least four years old.

The rest of class 1-A headed back to the locker room to get changed back into their school uniforms. It didn't take long to change, but some of the other guys were sore as was Ichigo. Even if it wasn't much it was still technically physical training, it would make anyone sore afterward.

The rest of the day went normal, well as normal as a hero school can go. Throughout the day teachers were coming and going to class 1-A to teach subjects that a normal school would: English, History of Quirks, Math, Current events. With the hands-on courses like Hero Basic Training which plenty of the students are looking forward to test, especially someone like Bakugo.

Once the final bell rang, everyone sprung up and gathered their bags and belongings. A few of the students even exchanged phone numbers. Ichigo left with a few phone numbers of his classmates. His eyes glanced over his contact list again, Iida Tenya, Kuchiki Rukia, somehow Izuku's number got his way in his phone, Kirishima Eijiro's number got in there too and lastly Yaoyorozu Momo's number was saved in his phone there was a few others but he wasn't sure who they were exactly since his phone was being passed around by everyone. Ichigo then sighed, it was the same for his other classmates. Their phone's got to him and reluctantly he gave some of his classmates his number to keep in touch and of course in case of an emergency.

Walking out on the concrete path, Ichigo made his way towards the gate. "Kurosaki-kun!" It was the voice of Tenya again. The teen being called sighed, turning back around there was Tenya, Izuku, and Ochaco walking towards him. "Are you heading to the train station as well?" Tenya asked, now that all four of them are walking together.

"We all are going to the station! Well except Deku, he is walking distance away from here." Ochaco said smiling at Ichigo. "I don't think we met Kurosaki-san!"

"Ah no, I live pretty close now. So I walk to school and I walk home." Ichigo answered Tenya who seemed to nod his head enthusiastically. "You're Infinity girl." Ichigo said which made Ochaco laugh softly. "You don't have to be so formal with me. You can call me by my given name."

"Ah- Ichigo-san." Izuku spoke up getting Ichigo's attention. "S-Since you walk to and from school. Want to walk together? Since we both have to walk anyway." Ichigo's naturally scowl is what makes Izuku nervous around him, but Ichigo isn't actually angry with the short teen not like Bakugo.

"I don't see a problem with that,"Ichigo said when they got to the gate. Ichigo and Izuku bid their farewells to Ochaco and Tenya as they made their way to the train station. The two teens now walked in silence but Ichigo broke that silence. "How's your finger doing? During the softball throw, it looked like it was in pretty bad shape." Ichigo asked while glancing down at the bandaged finger.

"Oh, my finger is better," Izuku said sheepishly. "Recovery Girl fixed me up quickly. I already can bend it!" But then the curly haired teen thought back to what the nurse said. "The nurse said, that her quirk boosts recovery factors. But recovery needs stamina if I keep getting hurt I'll eventually die."

"Geez. That's pretty terrifying." Ichigo said honestly. He made a mental note try not to see Recovery Girl often. "Why do you want to become a hero, Izuku?" He asked Ichigo is curious why Izuku working hard to become a hero.

"Well. I want to be like All Might. Someone who saves people with a smile on his face. An unwavering smile." Izuku said. He always gets giddy when he talked about All Might. "Why do you want to become a hero, Ichigo-san?"

"I want to protect the public and the people I hold close to me." He said honestly. Ichigo didn't care if it sounded soft, it's a true statement and he will stand behind it all the way till he becomes a hero.

"Doesn't your name mean, 'One who protects'?" Izuku now asked while holding his chin. He knows the other meaning is strawberry but Izuku doesn't want to feel the wrath of Ichigo if it upset him.

The taller teen blinked, he was impressed someone got it on the first try. Usually, he would be called strawberry on the first try. "That's right, I'm surprised that you got it on the first try. Usually, people think its means strawberry— it does mean strawberry but I take one who protects personally."

"It seems fitting!" Ichigo arched an eyebrow at Izuku who then continued, "Since you want to become a hero, they are considered as protectors too! That is why Ichigo is a fitting name." Izuku then blushed at how he sounded, it was like he was gushing over the irony.

"I see what you mean." Ichigo chuckled. The taller teen is amused by Izuku's ramblings and how awkward he can be. It was a breath of fresh air honestly, Ichigo is use to the personalities of his father and Tenya which are more in your face. Ichigo appreciates the new attitude from the short teen.

As the duo walked on the sidewalk, the sun began to finally set in the horizon. The street lights flicked on brightening up the now dark streets, people getting off of work filled the sidewalks. While the streets filled with cars quickly which caused heavy traffic for those who drive to and from work. The two new U.A student's chatted away as they walked, getting to know each other more. Izuku started to become less and less nervous once he realized Ichigo is actually kind under that cold demeanor he has on the outside.

"This is me," Izuku said as he looked up to apartments where he lived with his mother. "I'll see you at school tomorrow, Ichigo-san!"

Ichigo gave Izuku a wave as the latter enters the lobby of his apartment complex and headed towards the Midoriya residence. The orange haired teen continued his walk towards his small apartment which was only a few blocks away. It was already late, he hoped he had enough to time cook dinner and get some homework done.

Sighing from his mouth, he set his eyes forward as he kept on moving. Ichigo passed all kinds of people, businessmen, businesswomen, students, street entertainers, and food vendors. But then someone walked into him with their shoulder down trying to intentionally knock Ichigo out of the way.

"You should watch where you're going, kid." A fairly tall young man said as the two males turned toward each other. Ichigo took note of his appearance, the man that bumped into is lanky but is slightly taller than the U.A student. The lanky man has longish spiky hair which just hung in his eyes, Ichigo just could see the color of his eyes which are turquoise and thin as the man narrowed his eyes down at the boy. But what really made Ichigo shiver is the gnarled, wrinkled purple patches of skin that is on much of the man's lower face and neck. There seemed to be surgical stables and hoop piercings attached all over his skin. Ichigo couldn't tell if these scars were accidental or self-inflicted.

"You're the one who walked into me," Ichigo said pointing out what really happened. The scarred man wasn't really wearing anything that stood out, just a blue jacket that has a high ripped collar with matching pants that stops right above his ankles and on his feet are a pair of black dress shoes. Underneath the jacket, he is wearing a gray scoop-neck shirt and around his waist is a gray belt with a circular pattern.

"Oh?" The scarred man said, walking closer to Ichigo. The young teen felt shivers run up his spine. Something about this man is telling Ichigo he is bad news. "You sure seem confident about yourself, brat. You want to rethink that?" He said with a threatening tone in his voice.

"Hey! What are you doing to that kid?" A police officer spoke up as he now stood in between Ichigo and the scarred man. He noticed the hostile tension coming from the man, it's his job to keep peace in the public.

The lanky man held up how hands in feigned surrender. "Relax, Mr. Officer. We were only chatting." A scarred smirk never leaving his face as he spoke in a calm manner. Which the police officer gave a suspicious look towards the scarred man who began to walk away and gave Ichigo and the police officer a wave. "I might see you around."

Once he was out of sight the police officer turned to Ichigo. "Are you alright? What's your name? You can call me Officer Hiki." Hiki said while taking out a pen and notepad. "Do you want to report this incident?"

Ichigo shook his head, "I'm Kurosaki Ichigo. I'm fine." He said as he glanced the way the dark-haired man went. The feeling Ichigo got from him was definitely malicious, something about him didn't sit right with him. "Nah. It's not a big deal, just a confrontation no fighting happened."

Hiki sighed as he put his notepad away, "Well, get home, Kurosaki-san. Don't get in more trouble." The police officer walked away grumbling, "I have to meet my quota for the month!" Hiki said, crossing the street to find any more rukus around his section of the city.

"Geez. This city is more lively than Karakura." Ichigo mumbled as he turned on his heel and headed towards his small apartment again, which is only a few blocks away. Approaching his apartment complex, Ichigo walked through the lobby and to the stairs and climbed them to the fourth floor.

Opening the door to his apartment, he walked in while closing it behind him. Sighing out loud he threw his bag on the couch and headed to the kitchen to make something quick for dinner. Just some rice and curry, thanks to Yuzu, Ichigo is a better cook than he was before. Since he is going to be living on his own for a while Yuzu trained him how to make a decent dish, it was brutal training for months since he took the entrance exam in the winter. Ichigo didn't know his younger sister could be so brutal.

But his thoughts went to a more important matter, what Aizawa has planned for tomorrow. From what Ichigo gathered, Aizawa is hard to read and he has an interesting way to teach. All he has to look forward now is the next day at U.A High.

And there's that. Thank you for reading and I should be starting chapter three once this is posted. Follow me on twitter if you have questions or anything along those lines. My twitter handle is: ReiatsuSoul
