A My Hero Academia Fanfiction: Age of Heroes Chapter 7 Class Positions by RVasil

"Ah, I understand Mr. Hazani, we'll make sure to have this addressed in the next prototype of your suit. Would that be all?"

The dragon scratched his chin. On his desk in front of him were the various documentations that were given to him in regards to his hero costume. He grabbed one of the papers and sighed thoughtfully. "Nah, I think that's about it. I hope that's not too much of a trouble."

The support company representative chuckled on the other line. "Far from it, sir. We were actually thinking of already implementing something like it and presenting it to you as a possible upgrade. I believe you'll like what we've had designed in the lab."

The dragon grinned. "I'm already looking forward to it! Thanks again!"

"You're welcome. We'll be in touch."

There was then a knock on his door. "Kinus?"

"Yeah, mom?"

The door opened and his mother peeked in. "Dinner's ready," she said, and then her eyes lit up upon seeing the photo his son had on his desktop. "Oh, wow, is that your costume?"

Kinus stood aside as his mother came into his room and looked at his costume. "Yeah, it is," he answered. "Do you think it's a bit too much?"

Ruby scratched her chin and looked at the high quality photo of the hero costume, then back to her son. Her mouth curved to that of a smile. "It suits you perfectly! Have you worn it already?"

"I have!" Kinus answered enthusiastically. "We did some training exercises earlier and got to wear them as part of class. I just called the support company for some minor changes."

The red dragoness's eyes darted back to the hero costume. "Your father would be very proud."

Kinus beamed, and nodded. "I took inspiration from the photos we have of dad in costume and decided to throw a few things here and there to give it my own style."

Ruby grabbed one of the paper documents and noted the gadget that would have been strapped onto Kinus's back. "It sucks in water for you, huh?" Kinus nodded. Then a question popped into Ruby's head. "Would this be durable enough that it won't break out in the field?"

Kinus paused. "I'm not sure..." he answered. "I'll have to find that in the documentation. I'll be sure to ask that in an email to the support company though. Thanks for the heads up, mom."

The dragoness smiled down at him. "I just want to keep my hero safe." She patted Kinus's head. "The next thing I know you're going to be just like your dad." The dragoness let out a dreamy sigh, remembering Kinus's father fondly in her memories. "Do you still remember the stories I told you about him?"

Kinus nodded.

Pleased, she touched Kinus's nose affectionately. "Good. Because if your father can see you now, he'd be very proud of you for your accomplishments, Kinus." She gave the dragon a tender hug, rubbing his back. Eventually, she pulled away, and said, "Now come on, I'm hungry, and I'm sure you are too."

Nodding, Kinus allowed himself to be led out of the room and into the dining room, eager to get some much needed dinner after a long and tiring day.

"You there! Lizard!"

Kinus's path was quickly blocked by a reporter who looked desperate and haggard from all the journalism she had been doing that morning. His eyes twitched upon the words of the woman sinking into him. Kinus snorted, wondering whether he should entertain the reporter or just straight up ignore her. He eventually rolled his eyes and stopped walking. There was no need to be rude, but seriously, was she blind or something? "Yes?" he replied, doing his best to remain polite.

"Are you a student of the Hero course?"

Like predators honing in on their prey, a group of reporters magically appeared out of nowhere and began to crowd around Kinus. Wireless microphones and phones recording dialogue were shoved in front his face, each journalist clearly thirsty for whatever soundbyte they could muster. Kinus was beginning to wonder if he made the right choice as they were invading his personal space already. He visibly flinched back slightly, trying to give himself some breathing room. "Y-yes," he answered. He felt a shiver down his spine as the eyes of the reporters visibly twinkled upon hearing his affirmation.

One of the female journalist immediately spoke up, quick and straight to the point. "What do you think of the All Might as a teacher?"

"He's...uh..." Kinus found his mind coming up blank right then and there. Being interviewed by media was the last thing he expected to experience this morning. "...fine?" he blurted out, saying the first word that came to his mind. The journalists nodded, a few began writing feverishly in a notepad they had taken out of their pocket.

"Anything else? What sort of teacher is he like? What are his teaching methods?" the journalist asked, clearly thirsty for more content.

It was then that Kinus noticed the camera that was pointed at him and the blinking red light told him that it was probably recording footage of him. Sighing, the dragon decided to actually put some thought into his answer. The last thing he wanted was to look like a buffoon unable to answer a simple question. Clearing his throat, he then said, "he's a fine teacher," he shrugged to emphasize his point. "He's the type of teacher who teaches you with experience rather than lectures and theoreticals. It's clear that this teaching position is important to him and I personally look forward to learning more from him." He smiled, feeling proud of his statement.

The reporters ate it all up, the one taking notes flicking through his notepad like a man possessed, his ballpen flying through the pages. One of the reporters was about to ask another question when a loud voice from behind Kinus grabbed their attention.

"Hazani!"

Kinus turned his head and froze. It came from none other than Mr. Aizawa and he was walking towards them. The look of annoyance, tiredness mixed with frustration was etched as clear as day on his face. "What are you still doing out here? Get to class already."

The dragon breathed a mental sigh of relief. He thought for sure he was going to be scolded for being late. "Y-yes, sir!" He quickly left the reporters who were now happy to target their questions to the teacher that was now present. He jogged past Aizawa, who just sighed and began to plainly dismiss the reporters with his usual flat tone of voice.

"Oh hey, Hazani!" Sero cried out as he waltzed through the front door of the classroom. "I see you made it through this morning's obstacle unscathed."

The dragon chuckled, and he made a beeline towards his seat. "I barely made it out of there with my life."

"Didn't I give you a heads up last night?" came Tokoyami's voice. The bird turned to face him, cocking his head towards the side.

"Yeah, yeah," Hazani answered, taking out his notebook from his backpack and setting it down on his desk. "I didn't think you were serious when you said I should watch out for rabid reporters wanting to get a sound byte." He grinned. "It looked like they just wanted to get a bite out of me!"

Tokoyami rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"Believe me," Yaoyorozu spoke up from behind him, "they've been there for days now. They've wanted nothing more than to know what's All Might like."

"But you answered their question, right?" Kinus asked.

Tokoyami shook his head. "They're not worth my time. I've got better things to do."

"I did," Yaoyorozu replied. She cocked her head to the side and placed her hand under the bottom of her chin. "Though, I don't think they were remotely interested in whatever I was saying to be honest. I think they just wanted to some sensational soundbytes to use for their media coverage." She turned to face Todoroki who remained silent but was clearly listening in on their conversation. "How about you?"

The boy blinked, but then answered, "all they were interested in was what my father's thoughts were in regards to All Might being my teacher. Or something like that."

"Your father? Why would that matter?" Kinus asked.

"Oh that's right," Yaoyorozu said, "Yeah...that feels a bit too underhanded. I think they were just trying to get some gossip material at that point."

Kinus turned to Tokoyami who answered his question for him. "Todoroki's father is Endeavor, the second best hero out there behind All Might."

The dragon blinked, his mind flashing him the image of the large muscular hero who was renowned for his Hell Flame Quirk. He appeared on television every now and then, being interviewed by reporter because of a crime he put to a halt, or civilians he saved during a tense standoff with villains. If there was one thing he could say about Endeavor, was that he came across as intimidating, compared to All Might who appeared to be approachable and down to earth. His eyes darted to Todoroki. Maybe that was partly the reason why the boy was aloof.

But that also then explained why Todoroki was so skilled. He clearly had so much to live up to. Todoroki shrugged in response to Yaoyorozu's comment. "It doesn't really matter to me. I told them that All Might's a decent teacher, much like my father. They're both good in their own rights, I suppose..." With the way his voice trailed, Kinus got the sense that there was something more there that Todoroki wasn't telling. But the dragon knew it wasn't in his place to pry no matter how much it piqued his curiosity.

The doors slid opened and everyone quieted down as Aizawa marched into the room, still looking tired and lacking in sleep. He stood in front of the podium and began to address the class, putting his paperwork for the day in front of him.

"Good work on yesterday's combat training. I saw the video and results." His eyes darted towards the student in front of Midoriya. "Bakugo, you're talented so don't act like a kid."

The boy just sighed dismissively. "I know," he grumbled.

"Midoriya." Kinus saw the boy visibly stiffen up and lower his head. "What did I tell you about breaking your arm?" Aizawa asked rhetorically. "You can't keep saying you can't help it because you can't control your Quirk. I don't like saying the same thing over and over again," he warned. "Get this thing sorted out and you'll be able to do more than what you can now."

The dragon cocked his head to the side, surprised. Was Aizawa actually giving encouraging advice? He allowed himself to smile. Maybe the guy wasn't as heartless as he made himself out to be.

"What else..." Aizawa scratched the scruff on his chin. He shifted through some of his papers and then said, "oh yeah. Hazani," The dragon's ears perked up as he heard his name get called. "Good job on holding your own against Todoroki. Your performance was stellar, but be sure to know your limits however." Aizawa's brows furrowed. "It's bad enough that I have to deal with Midoriya. Don't add yourself to my list of problems. Got it?"

Kinus nodded. "Yes sir."

Aizawa then cleared his throat. "With that out of the way, let's get down to business. Our first task, would decide your future."

The atmosphere around the room collectively got serious. It sounded way too ominous. Kinus gulped. Was this another one of Aizawa's Quirk tests again?

"You all need to decide on a class representative."

Kinus released the breath he was holding. He was beginning to wonder if Aizawa was just being dramatic for the sake of being dramatic or if he was just doing it because he found it amusing. Either way, everyone was pleased that it was just something plain and ordinary for a change. The entire room exploded in a flurry of activity.

"I want to be class rep! Pick me!" Kirishima shouted, followed by Kaminari sharing his own sentiments in wanting to be class rep.

Everyone was raising their voice above one another in hopes of having Aizawa pick them. Kinus smiled, finding it amusing that Tokoyami looked annoyed at how everyone was being noisy. "Do you want to be class rep?" he asked the bird.

Tokoyami thought for a brief moment, then answered, "If it is in the fate of the cards, then it shall be." He then cocked his head to the side then followed with, "You?"

The dragon shook his head. "Not really," he said with a shrug. Tokoyami was caught off guard by his answer and Kinus promptly clarified, saying, "I don't think I can handle the responsibility honestly. I'm not sure if I have it in me to lead a group of people," he answered sheepishly.

"But taking the role would allow you to practice," Tokoyami countered.

Kinus nodded. The bird did have a point. "True..."

"SILENCE! Everyone, please!"

Iida's voice pierced through the rowdy class and everyone quieted down as Iida stood up. He fixed his glasses then said, "A class representative's duty is to lead others! It's not something anyone can do. You must first have the trust of everyone in the classroom. Therefore, I believe that in order for us to find this person, I suggest we do it democratically. We must hold an election."

"But we've only known each other for a few days, how do we know who we can trust?" Asui asked.

"Besides, everyone would just vote for themselves," Kirishima added.

"Yes! But that means that whoever does receive the most votes means he's the most suitable person for the job." Iida turned to Aizawa who was busying himself by zipping up in his yellow sleeping bag. "What do you think, Mr. Aizawa?"

"Do what you want, just decide before my nap is over."

Kinus had to admit, Aizawa definitely had a unique style in handling class matters. Everyone began to deliberate amongst themselves, wondering if this was the best way to go about settling this. But inevitably, they all collectively decided that perhaps it was the best way to go forward. The lingering feeling of everyone voting for themselves hung in the air as they all began to write down their votes as to who they wanted to be class representative. The dragon thought carefully, tapping the side of his cheeks with his pen.

"A leader..." he mumbled to himself as he stared at the piece of paper he held in his hands.

Kinus eyes darted around and he began to objectively examine his classmates. He was on friendly terms with almost everyone in the class, being able to chat with them in the group chat helped greatly at that matter. But admittedly, Kinus only knew a select few of them closely. The dragon scratched the back of his head, doing his best to think of moments that he could use as reference that would serve as a basis for someone's leaderships skill. He was tempted to vote for himself just for the hell of it, but the dragon shook his head. That was a waste of a vote. Kinus didn't want to be class representative. His eyes then darted towards Iida. The boy was feverishly looking at his paper, clearly in deep concentration. It was like this vote meant life or death.

The dragon smiled. Maybe he should vote for Iida. Besides, the boy was the only one who had enough sense to actually suggest this voting procedure to begin with. Kinus cocked his head towards the side and began to think of situations that would help back up his decision. It didn't take long for him to remember that Iida was a stickler for the rules and that was the only thing he needed to move him to cast his vote.

Eventually, the papers were gathered and then tallied. Silence wrapped the class as the results were displayed on the blackboard.

Everyone's eyes darted towards the top and were all equally floored upon finding Midoriya to have been the most voted.

"HOW DID I GET THREE VOTES?!" Midoriya exclaimed.

"OKAY YOU IDIOTS! Who voted for him?!" Bakugo cried out, standing up and looking angrily at the class.

"Did you honestly think anyone was going to vote for you?" Sero countered.

Everyone could see Iida looking flustered. "One vote?!" he said. "Thank you..." he said lowly, "whoever you may be. Your vote means a lot to me."

Kinus smiled, and made a mental note to cheer the boy up later. It was obvious that this election meant a lot to him. His eyes then drifted downwards to see who else came behind Midoriya. The dragon's eyes flicked past the names, then he stopped and did a double take. He then blinked just to make sure he wasn't seeing things. Right below Midoriya's name was his own.

"What the hell?!" Kinus exclaimed louder than he intended to. "Who voted for me?!"

He had two votes attributed to him, and below his name was Yaoyorozu, with two votes as well.

"You guys voted for the lizard?!" Bakugo cried out.

"You're only continuing to prove my point, Bakugo," Sero added, shaking his head.

Kinus blinked, unable to process the sudden turn of events. He looked at Tokoyami next to him who had his head propped up by his hand and had his eyes closed, clearly disinterested at what was going on. "Did you vote for me?" he dared to ask.

"Asking who you voted for is quite unethical, Hazani," he replied, opening an eye to look at him. "Maybe some of our classmates just think you'd be good as a leader."

It was then Aizawa decided to chime in. "Alright, our class rep would be Midoriya. Our deputy class rep however..." his eyes turned towards Kinus and Yaoyorozu's direction, "you two need to decide this now."

Kinus turned his head to see Yaoyorozu filled with determination. "Hazani," she said, addressing him. "I think that--"

"You should be the deputy rep."

"In order...wait what?" She stopped, clearly caught off guard by his statement. Everyone was taken off kilter at how easily he gave up the chance to fight for the position. "Are you serious?"

"Yeah," Kinus answered. "I don't want to be a representative."

"Why not?" Yaoyorozu asked curiously, speaking the question that was on everyone's mind.

"I know my own limits," he said humbly, "which is why I personally think I'm not responsible enough to take this position." Kinus smiled. "Besides, I think you'd be better at it than I am, seeing how you did yesterday with your breakdown of the training results."

Yaoyorozu was seemingly left stunned at the compliment. She was about to say something again when Aizawa spoke before her. "Alright, I'll take that. Hazani is stepping down so that means Yaoyorozu will be your class deputy representative."

"R-Really...?" Midoriya blurted out, shaking like a tree against a strong wind. It was clear that he wasn't expecting something like this to happen.

"This might not be so bad..." Asui remarked.

"What is wrong with you?"

Kinus blinked, surprised at the sudden scolding he was getting from his classmate. Ojiro was scowling at him as the two of them seated themselves at a free table in the cafeteria. Midoriya and company were there as well, with the green haired boy muttering if he was competent enough to be a class representative.

"What are you talking about?" Kinus asked, looking at the boy.

"Why did you decline the position?" Ojiro asked intently.

Hearing the conversation, Uraraka leaned in, curious to hear Kinus's reasoning. "Yeah. I'm surprised you declined, Hazani. Being a class representative is something people chase after. It's good training for future leadership roles. I mean, even Iida wants to be one, but he got voted out of it." The boy instinctively flinched at the sudden comment about him.

The dragon sighed, idly playing with the food on the plate. "I meant what I said earlier. I don't think I'm cut out enough to hold that kind of responsibility. Being a class representative that is." He glanced at them shrugging. "I'm more of a follower, you know?"

"True, but like Uraraka said, it's good training for future leadership roles, Hazani." Iida fixed his glasses on his head. "It can be a place to start your foundations. It's why I voted for Midoriya. His quick thinking and ability to adapt whilst under stress and overwhelming odds proves to me he that can be a good leader down the line. Well, at least in my point of view anyway."

"So you were the one that voted for me!" Midoriya cried out.

"Though, I can see why people would vote for you as well, Hazani. You showed that you can work well with your partner even against an astounding foe like Todoroki. It shows that you can be a team player, able to utilize both your skill sets to even the odds." Iida smiled at them. "I may have voted for you if I wasn't as impressed with Midoriya, given his own faults."

"Thanks, Iida," Kinus added. "I appreciate the vote of confidence at least. Aside from my personal insecurities in being a leader, part of the reason why I don't want to be a class representative is because of the extra work." The dragon smiled sheepishly, much to the incredulous expressions on everyone's faces. "Hey, don't look at me like that! I have enough trouble as it is in school. I'm not down for extra curriculars."

"You're just lazy," Uraraka teased.

"I'm just being honest," Kinus clapped back.

"And that is still a quality of a good leader!" Midoriya quipped.

Everyone laughed at the joke, good mood being spread all around. Munching on his food, a thought popped into Kinus's head that he proceed to voice out. "But Iida," he said, grabbing the attention of the boy. "Why did you vote for Midoriya instead of yourself? You seemed like you really wanted to be a class representative."

Iida took a sip from his drink before answering the question. "Wanting to be a leader and being fit to be one are two radically different things. Observing the Iida family hero agency has taught me that."

Tokoyami, who was quietly listening in on their conversation throughout this entire time, finally made his presence known. "Did I hear that right? Hero Agency?" he asked again, voicing the question on everyone's mind. "I didn't know you had such a rich history, Iida."

Iida looked a bit flustered, but seeing the surprised and curious expressions on everyone's faces prompted him to clarify. The boy sighed, realizing the secret was out. "I do my best not to mention it as I'd prefer to not be treated differently." Midoriya and Uraraka both look utterly impressed, their eyes shining brightly. "Yes, my family has been heroes for generations. It's in our blood."

"Seriously?" Ojiro asked. "That's awesome!"

"Are any of you familiar with the Turbo Hero, Ingenium?"

"I know all about him!" Midoriya could barely contain his excitement. "He's a popular hero with 65 sidekicks working with him at his Tokyo Agency! Wait...don't tell me..."

Iida proudly puffed out his chest. "He's my elder brother!"

Everyone around the table were equally at awe at the new fact coming to light about Iida. Ojiro looked amazed, as well as Midoriya and Uraraka. Kinus just smiled warmly, and nodded. Iida's situation was something Kinus could relate to. Tokoyami on the other hand remained calm and collected, with only a hint of an impressed smile tugging at the corner of his beak.

"Ingenium is an unmatched commander who honors the rules and leads people," Iida said, brimming with pride. "As the second oldest Iida son, I strive to be just like him. However I think it is still too soon for me to lead others." He turned to Midoriya. "You figured out what the judges were looking for in the practical exam. A class representative requires that level of insight."

Midoriya smiled sheepishly. "Well, I can't honestly take that credit."

"Why's that?" Ojiro asked. "That's awesome that you figured out the entrance exam, Midoriya. Iida's right, you have great insight." The boy proceeded to scratch the back of his head. "I was honestly clueless that there was a hidden scoring system to all of it, myself."

"The thing is, I..."

But before Midoriya could say another word, a loud alarm bell began to ring across the entire building, grabbing everyone's attention. It reminded Kinus of a fire alarm. "What's going on?" the dragon asked, looking around concerned.

"There has been a level 3 security breach. All students please evacuate outdoors promptly."

The other students in the cafeteria began to stand up, others rushing towards the exit.

"What's going on? What's a level 3 security breach?" Iida asked to one of the students that passed by.

"It means someone is trespassing on school grounds! I've never seen anything like this!" the boy replied, before taking off on his own to towards the exit.

Everyone looked at each other before leaving their meals behind to follow through. The sense of urgency and seriousness was clear and no one was messing around. But things went to a grinding halt as they all got squished together by the rushing crowd of students, clamoring to get to the exit.

"Ow! Stop pushing!"

"You're hurting me!"

"Get out of the way damn it!"

Kinus gritted his teeth. It would take a miracle for someone to not get trampled on in this mass stampede happening. The dragon looked around and was unable to find his classmates anymore. They must have gotten themselves pulled in as well. The writhing mass of bodies inched forward and Kinus found himself get carried away in the process. By mere chance he got pushed towards the side, and that was when he felt something grab onto his uniform and forcefully pull him towards an empty hallway that was free from the body of students. Kinus's form landed on the empty floor with a loud thud.

"Sheesh, you're heavy, you know that?"

The dragon looked up, coughing slightly. It was hard to breathe when everyone was pressing up against him. Bright yellow eyes looked down on him and he recognized them instantly. "Dark Shadow?"

He nodded. "You're welcome," the shadow replied, extending a hand towards him.

Kinus reached for it and helped himself up, surprised to find the shadowy hand to be a physical one. It didn't take the dragon long to find the shadow's owner, standing calmly against the wall.

"I don't like mixing with crowds," Tokoyami said, as if answering an unspoken question written on Kinus's face. "Are you alright, Hazani?"

"I'm fine," he answered. "Thank you. What about the others?"

"I can't find them," Dark Shadow answered, looking at the mass of students passing by them. Everyone was so keen in reaching for the exit, they ignored the empty hallway they were in entirely. "Tokoyami here told me to make sure to grab you first though; lucky that I found you when I did."

Kinus offered a thankful smile to the bird. "I'm touched."

"Think nothing of it."

Their short conversation was then interrupted when the sound of engines revving up pierced through the cacophony of sounds. Kinus turned around to find a spinning blur whiz by atop the heads of the students and crash against the concrete wall. "Is that..."

"EVERYONE! Everything's fine!"

Yep. That was none other than his classmate, Iida, looking slightly flustered and his glasses nowhere to be found. His position above the hall allowed his voice to travel clearly and concise, and he immediately filled them in on the situation that was currently happening.

"So it was just the media..." Kinus heard Tokoyami mutter from behind him.

Kinus turned around, feeling relief wash over him. He had to admit, a part of him was worried that something serious had really gone down. Thankfully it was the opposite. The sound of sirens blaring from the distance only helped to relax him even further. "Well at least nothing serious happened."

"Hmph, and here I was hoping for some action," Dark Shadow commented. "I could have used the exercise."

"Let us not tempt fate, Dark Shadow," Tokoyami reproached.

"Yeah. We should be grateful it wasn't villains or anything," Kinus added. "Because if that were the case, that would have been really bad."

"But wouldn't that be a good thing?" the shadow countered, making the two of them stop. "Aren't you heroes in training? A villain attack would be perfect training experience."

Both Kinus and Tokoyami looked at each other. It sounded insane, but Dark Shadow did have a good point. "Well..." Kinus began, trying to find something to say. "Experience is experience but I'd much rather be alive afterwards to learn from it."

"I concur with Hazani. We mustn't go looking for fights."

Dark Shadow pouted, crossing his arms across his chest before slinking back into Tokoyami's considerably smaller figure. "You guys are no fun. Wake me in case something serious happens."

"Is he always this..." Kinus thought for a moment, "this proactive?"

An amused smile formed on Tokoyami's beak. "Quite frankly the opposite. He'd much rather be sleeping than be doing anything else if it were up to him. It's only through my desires and constant vigilance that he ever gets anything done at all."

"Then how come he wants to go out there and fight villains all of a sudden?"

"I think it's because he just wants to show off."

The dragon stopped for a brief moment, taken off guard by the statement. "I'm sorry what?"

But before Tokoyami could even utter another word, a black hand materialized beside him and gently jabbed him at the side of the head. "Ow!"

"Go to class already. It's too noisy here."

"Dark Shadow, don't hurt him," Kinus reprimanded, although his tone was betraying the emotion he wanted to convey.

Tokoyami huffed, looking annoyed but let it slide for now. Seeing the crowd of students slowly dissipate as Iida successfully diffused the tension, he began to walk forward. "Come on Hazani, let's get back to class."

"Right behind you."

With the commotion out of the way, the excitement died down and the students of Class-1A gathered once again in their room to continue with their afternoon session of classes. Kinus was amused at how badly Midoriya was shaking as he stood in front of all of them. It was clear to everyone that he wasn't the type of person who was used to public speaking. It was a stark comparison against Yaoyorozu who looked calm, collected and otherwise unbothered by the attention directed towards her.

"I-it's time we decide on our other class officers," Midoriya said. "But first, can I say something? I think that....Tenya Iida should be our class representative!" Everyone was taken by surprise at the sudden outburst, and even more so at the claim that was spoken. "When everyone was stampeding earlier in the cafeteria, he was able to think fast, and quickly get us all organized. With that kind of prowess, I think it would be best if he should lead us from now on."

Kinus spared a glance at Iida's direction, and noted at how surprised he was at the compliment being directed towards him. "You know, I can get behind that," Kirishima said. "If Midoriya's vouching for him, then I'm good. Plus he was a total big help. He totally manned up and took charge!"

Comments of everyone on the sentiment filled the room. It would seem the decision was already clear.

"This is a waste of time," Aizawa spoke up, ruining the touching moment. "I don't care who the class rep is, just get it over with."

"Well if the current class representative nominates me, then it can't be helped." Iida stood up and proudly puffed out his chest. "I, Tenya Iida, gladly accept this position! I promise to do my best."

With Iida leading, everything was smooth sailing. Positions were still needed to fill for the class, such as a secretary and a treasurer among a few others. By the end of it all, Kinus was taken by surprise as he landed the position of secretary of all things.

"How come I'm the secretary?!" Kinus cried out. "Why not Midoriya? He loves writing stuff down!"

"You're the one with the most well written notes outside of Yaoyorozu. Midoriya would have been a good pick, but he needs to learn the meaning of brevity first before that," Tokoyami answered. Midoriya cringed slightly, feeling self conscious of himself.

The dragon huffed, not looking forward to the extra work he was going to have to face.

Class eventually continued forward and it wasn't long until everyone's favorite subject rolled around.

"For today's hero basic training," Aizawa began, "it will be a little different. You'll have me, All Might and another faculty member keeping an eye on you."

Sero then asked the question on everyone's minds, "Sir, what kind of training is this?"

"Rescue training, shipwrecks, natural disasters, that sort of thing. You can decide if you want to wear your costume or not this time. Just keep in mind that you haven't gotten really used to them yet so they might limit your abilities. This special training will be off campus so we're taking a bus to get there. That's all, start getting ready," Aizawa finished and then walked off.

Everyone was lit abuzz by the prospect of training. Rescue training was as important as learning how to fight villains. What was the point in being able to fight villains if you didn't know how to save others? Kinus himself was personally pumped. Another opportunity to learn what it meant to be a hero.

The dragon smiled to himself. It was going to bring him one step closer to being just like his father.
