1B homeroom teacher Vladking nodded seeing that his class can follow a simple order.
The blood theme hero stood infront of the class, arm cross his eyes darted to each and every student.
He gave a satisfy nod when he see some of the notable one in his class, like young Kendo and Young Shaozaki this batch of students has a great potential.
His musing was cut off when he notice that there is an empty chair, and immediately try to figure out who is missing in his roster.
'hmm young Itami, 1st day of school year and you already late, not good, this won't do, you better have a good reason of why you think that being late in my class would fly to me'
"LISTEN MAGGOTS, WE STILL HAVE TIME BEFORE THE ORIENTATION, LET'S START IN INTRODUCTION FIRST" all the students sat straight hearing the blood theme hero.
"I'll go first," Vlad walk infront of the blackboard and start writing his hero name.
"I'm class 1b homeroom teacher, the one who's gonna be in charge to your overall well being while you all part of this class, MY NAME IS SEKIRO KAN, THE BLOODTHEME: HERO VLADKING!," the 1B homeroom teacher pause, letting his students absorb some of words he said.
"While I congratulate you all for passing the entrance exam, it doesn't means that you lot is already fit to be a hero, NO! you all far from it, not even close." Hearing that, some of the excitement in the room die down a little and some of the students gave an understanding nod.
"My job here is not only to teach you a lesson about heroics, I'm here to guide each and everyone of you to your path as U.A hero student, as long you're willing to give your all beyond plus ultra, I'll promise to help you as much as I can" Kan let out a toothy grin when he saw some fire of determination starting to lit up to his students eyes.
"GREAT! Let's start to this row, introduce your name, quirk, and a bit of yourself"
One by one all the students stood up and start to introduce themselves,
Kan start take some mental note of his student's character how they carry themselves infront of strangers.
Some are compose, others are boisterous, shy, and few are weird, something that the blood theme hero hasn't encounter yet in his 12 years of being a teacher.
Teenagers, yes, powerful, yes, but still kids, Kan knows how important to be thorough when guiding this quirk kids,
Quirk makes everything more complicated, especially when your are a kid, just watching his students, Kan can already perceive some of sign, issue and insecurities, something that would definitely come out during their time here at U.A.
"GOOD! Remember your classmates name, you lot will work together for the next 3years"
Kan look at the empty chair and frown.
"now! I've noticed that one of your classmate is not here yet." Kan watch as 2 of his student flincheds upon mentioning the missing brat.
He expected Young Shaozaki reaction since they were childhood friend and all, but it seems that young Komori also know young Itami.
Although not as obvious as the 2 girls, young kendo also winced a little knowing who's the missing student.
"now Young Shaozaki, base on young Itami papers, you and him are close friend, also live walk apart to each other, do you have any idea why your friend is missing in my class?" The Vine haired girl fidget a little not sure how to answer.
"Y-yes me and Ai has been friend since we were little, I-I don't know where he is now, he only texted me saying that he's nearby"
Kan nodded "both of you went to the exam together, and since you two are neighbor, I kinda assume that you too will go to class together too"
Ibara fidget more trying to comeup an explanation something that will lessen Ai's trouble while not making a lie.
"Y-yes Ai lives a walking distance from my home and we usually walk together to school, u-um but Since U.A is couple of hour away from our home, I need to wake up early to prepare for school and um-I didn't like going to Ai's house when its too early and he still asleep" Ibara can already feel that her cheeks is heating up and hoping that her sensei won't ask the reason why she doesn't like waking Ai in the morning "and he won't answer his phone earlier so I just went on my own since I don't want to be late today"
All true, and she felt relieve when her sensei only nod to her explanation and seems like he won't ask anything else.
"W-why you don't like going to Aino's house in early?" Ibara eyes widened and snap her head to the girl sitting beside her, she look at kinoko like the girl just stab her in the back.
The mushrooms girl panick when she realize that she just make things more conflicated for her friend, base on the look of panic and a growing flushed on Ibara cheeks.
"My~my what with the red cheek, Ibara is there something scandalous is happening in your friend's house during the day?" Tokage sitting not far from Ibara also notice the growing flushed on the Vine haired girl face, got intrigue of what the reason of that.
"ENOUGH!" everyone Jolted to their seats when their teacher remind them his presence.
"I'll deal with Itami later when he arrive, right now your only concern is to line up and head to the courtyard for the Orientation, make sure to listen carefully during the briefing, UA is your home for the next 3 years, make sure you know the do and donts of this school"
Vlad walk to the door and slid it open" what are you waiting for!? Heroes, to carry your ass to the courtyard? Go to the orientation, your wasting precious time!"
Hearing their sensei words, the class 1B quickly rose to their seats and went to the courtyard,
Vladking took out a device and talk with it.
"Nedzu I'm missing a student, Aino Itami, young Shaozaki already confirmed via a message that he left his house and heading to UA. Check his whereabouts and if he's okay" without waiting for a reply Vlad store the device back to his pocket and proceed to follow his class.
The orientation went well, the staff mostly first-year teacher all introduce themselves to the new students,
Many we're excitement seeing this many famous pros gathering in one place.
Although there's a little bit of commotion in the beginning when in the middle if Nezu welcoming his new students, an nearby explosion startled everyone especially with those high sensitive hearing.
After a bit of explanation the students calm down and nezu resume with his welcoming remarks.
Though the commotion got reignited when a Booming voice of the no.1 Hero welcome everyone, when nezu introduce the newest member of UA faculty.
Things has been going smoothly when nezu chuckle and call a unfamiliar name,
"Ah yes Mr. Itami I'm happy that you make it in later half of orientation, though you miss a lot of important stuffs, so I'll suggest to you to see your homeroom teacher later this afternoon for some one on one make-up" nezu chuckle, seeing the kid holding his bag Infront of his face hiding, who stop walking towards his class seats.
Vlad is not amused, the brat is almost half an hour late, Nezu inform him that the kid is indeed in UA vicinity when the orientation start, so technically the brat will only took a 3-5 mins to get here in the orientation.
Ibara and Kinoko is looking at Ai with worry, they're not even mad, they just afraid that Ai will get in so much trouble for this.
Itsuka has a mix feeling about the guy, she been wanted to talk to him ever since the guy help him during the exam, but now she kinda felt disappointed in him, being a few minutes late is one thing, but this is UA hero course, being late in the first day of class said a lot about the guy's character, he's not taking this course seriously, the thought almost made the orange haired girl mad,
For someone like her who worked day and night, just to earn an spot to the hero course, the boy attitude is infuriating.
Ai look at nezu then the teacher then student who seizing him up.
"I'm sorry sir, there's a lost child Infront of the gate of UA as an aspiring hero of this great institution I can't just ignore a child crying for her mom, I'm just sorry that it took a lot of time finding the mother's child" Ai bow sincerely to of everyone apologizing his action.
Ibara, Kinoko, and Itsuka raise there eyebrow hearing the reason why he was late,
Though Ibara has a few questions about the entire thing, but choose to quiet for now, and pray that Ai manage to get himself out in trouble.
Nezu chuckle, "my my, this what it meant when we said that UA only pick the best hero students in the courty" nezu made a few click in his remote and a video of a little girl crying near at UA path walk was shown in the monitor.
The students watch as Ai who running toward th UA gate made a bee line and approach the crying girl, though there's no sound, everyone assume that the boy was saying something since the little girl stop crying and clap when Ai made a hero pose.
Ibara and her classmates watch as Ai lift the little girl and put her on his shoulder and walk away from the camera.
Some students clap watching the video, while the teacher gave an approving nod to the boy's action.
Ibara breath a sigh of relief when the Atmosphere became light and it seems that Ai won't be in so much trouble.
"A-Aino is so awesome, he help that crying girl Ibara" Kinoko who's softly clapping, voice out her admiration towards her new friend
Itsuka felt bad, when she realized that she unfairly judge the guy, and calling him names in her mind, when she didn't know the full reason of why he's late.
Vladking though impressed with the boy's action, was seeing a huge hole to the story, being a hero and a teacher for many years he had build some good intuition in comes with his job, and his gut telling him that something is a miss.
Nezu grin wider, this new student of his is pretty interesting, while it is true that helping the little girl made him late, there's a bigger reason why he is running full speed toward the gate, and the principal has no problem stir some small commotion.
With a sadistic grin he spoke "though even without helping the the little girl which is a admirable action a might say, you'll be late for at least 10 mins after that orientation start"
Aino, and Ibara both wince hearing the principal words.
Aino look up with a trouble look, he was scratching his head while thinking a suitable excuse to say.
Nezu made another click "due to that, your homeroom teacher call me and ask me to look for you, and-" nezu laugh, and make everyone question what is so funny about "Let just that being a principal in this institution for many years I cam say that I've seen everything and nothing will surprise me anymore, well turn out this still yoh who can"
Whe the monitor change its display what showed made everyone either gasp or look in confusion.
The dispay show a social media picture of Ai standing on a queue lining up, in his UA student iniform, one assume is around 4 or 5 in the morning base in the darkness on picture, surrounded by fellow guys who look like a stereo type anime dweeb who also waiting in the line.
On the caption in the picture says '''saving the world can wait, saving a copy of *my onii-chan is always hard seeing me in my leggings so I tease him till his orgasms* game comes first'''
Nedzu laugh maniacally.
Aino winced seeing the pictures, freaking memer snitches on him.
Ibara tears is flowing both hands clasps while asking the Lord to wake her up to this nightmare
