To be A Hero (BNHA)

Chapter 1

"You've all trained hard today, and are making decent progress, but before I send you back to the dorms, I have an announcement to make," Mr. Aizawa said to the class. Class 1A had been busy training and were exhausted, but still gave attention to their teacher. It had been a few months since the incident on the news, and lately hadn't given it much thought. They taken by surprise when the door opened and Midnight walked with with someone tailing behind her.

"Right this way," Midnight said, stepping back and allowing her follower to step forward. The class gave collective gasps as they recognized the newcomer as the girl from the attack. Bakugo tensed in disbelief, the pencil he had been twirling in boredom snapped in his hands. Deku rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was seeing things. 

"Class this is Terra Rikuto, she will be joining the hero program and part of this class from here on," Aizawa continued in his bored tone.

She pushed a strand of her long dark brown hair behind her ear as she gave a polite smile and greeted, "It's nice to meet you all."

"I'll leave introductions and showing her around the dorms to the class rep. Class dismissed." In the same moment he had curled up inside a yellow sleeping bag and seemed to be asleep on the ground. Midnight gave an amused chuckle before she left the room.

Iida stepped forward to take control of the situation and said proudly, "Welcome to class 1A! I am Tenya Iida, the class rep! I will begin the introductions!" He waved his arms up and down from his elbow joints in a robot-like fashion.

"Sounds good! Fire away class rep!" she grinned trying to take in all of the new faces, as the rest of their class left their seats to gather around to inspect the newcomer.

"Hey, hey, hey, you think you can just show up here and ignore me you damn brat?" Bakugo scoffed stepping in front of his classmates to confront the new girl. He had his hands shoved in his pockets, his red eyes focused as he looked down at her. 

"Bakugo! Don't shout at someone who just joined our class!" Iida shouted angrily, moving his arms more aggressively, but the new girl was already moving. 

"Kacchan!" Rikuto she cheered happily. She threw herself at the boy with a force that made even him take a step back for balance as she wrapped her arms around him in a hug. The action surprised the class that most of their eyes were popping out of their skulls.

"Ehhhh????" Most of them shrieked collectively. They were surprised that someone would act that way towards Bakugo, and even more surprised that he didn't swear or push her away. Instead he wrapped his arm around her and patted her back twice in acknowledgement. He ducked his head low and scoffed, trying to hide the blush creeping into his cheeks. He remembered that this is just how she was, but he didn't like the looks he was getting for it. 

"Terra!" Deku called out eagerly, recovering from his shock and rushing up to her with shining eyes and looking like an excited puppy. 

"And Deku too! I can't believe it!" she laughed, releasing one of her arms from around Kacchan to wrap it around Deku, forcing the blond to bend over slightly from the height difference. She gave Deku a gentle one armed squeeze saying, "I haven't heard from either of you in years! You'll have to tell me everything that's happened! Deku! When did you get your quirk? I thought you couldn't have one? And Kacchan! Who the heck said you could be taller than me?"

As she went on happily, Bakugo continued to look down at her, still trying to process that she was actually there. Even before the news had shown the attack, he had wondered if he would ever see her again. Then after he had seen the news, he had wondered if she was even alive. And now she had just appeared, and was joining his class. He wanted to poke her face to be sure that it was her, but resisted. Instead he settled on the fact that his arm was around her, and she felt real enough.
