Chapter Text
It was a pretty average day at UA, Class 1 a was hanging out in the dorms helping each other out with assignments. The teachers, mostly Aizawa, were grading papers. In just a few days they would have their provisional license exams, paper work had to be done beforehand. That and the class had to get some extra help with support items or some training for final moves
Although there was something strange going on in the halls. All Might and Nedzu were chatting in the hallway, currently talking about the recent event with the fight with All for one. When suddenly Nedzu stopped walking towards his office they were heading towards, right in front of his door he stepped back and turned towards All Might.
"I sense that there's someone in my office. Not anyone familiar from here, All Might would you mind getting Aizawa?"
A little confused and disturbed by the fact that someone seemed to be in the office, only Nedzu could sense he nodded. He hesitated before leaving, saying
"What are you going to do? Surely you can't just walk in there!" He said before Nedzu held his paw up to stop him from speaking,
"I've just got a hunch of whose in there, nothing too big I can't handle. Now now go ahead and get Aizawa, I have a feeling that he'd want to be here." He said before turning toward the door again, waiting for a brief moment for All Might to leave before heading inside.
Opening the door he was greeted by the bright light that shined through his windows, although standing up facing towards the window was a small figure.
"Seems like I was right to assume you were here…Hiretsu."
"Just as clever as before, Nedzu, seems to me like you've got the high life now." The figure turned, revealing to be a calico cat with toothy smile that never moved even while speaking. Their paws were replaced with 3 metal claws that seemed to be infused with their skin and fur. 4 black whiskers triangle shaped that seemed to be made out of the same metal as the claws, floating out of its face. And it's piercing yellow eyes accompanied by its green bowtie.
"And you never stop smiling. Now, take a seat and let's discuss why you're here, Hiretsu." Neduz closed the door behind him and made his way to his desk, both of them hopping onto their seats.
"Any tea before we start?" Nedzu pulled out a cup of tea, seemingly out of nowhere, already steaming hot and now sat on the desk towards Hiretsu.
"Oh please, charming me into that isn't going to do anything. I came here for work purposes only Nedzu, you know how straight forward I can be." The air seemingly got colder
"No the reason why I came here was to offer a new coworker, with me involved. They'd make running UA much easier with their help." They pulled out a file and put it on Nedzu's desk, Nedzus expression seemed annoyed if you looked into it for a little more than a moment.
"All the criteria is there, I hope you'll like my doll. Or how'd you call him. Your new pawn." Small giggles came out of its mouth, oh how he grew to hate that laugh.
"My my, what happened to acting professionally?" Nedzu added before grabbing the file and looking inside. Seemed like a report instead of a job resume.
[ Leliel Code 12]

Quirk - DNA Modification Separation (DNA MS)

An additional photo next to the rest of the file. A tired man, similar eyebags like Aizawa with green eyes. However this man had shorter hair, white and black hair with a few small streaks of red, into roughly cut bangs each into different lengths. Seemingly pale, looks like he hasn't taken a day off in years. Speaking of…
Occupation/s - Biologist, doctor, pharmacist, College professor in Flint, Michigan (Michigan University).
Nothing too special, although Nedzus' eyes landed back into his quirk. 'DNA MS', it made him wonder how this never came up. This could've solved lots of problems towards All Might and All of one's situation.
"Just how long were you waiting to give me this information?" He looked up from the file and sat idle waiting for a answer, his smile turning into a firm neutral line.
"Just enough time to see if the situation got worse, of course no one was really expecting what happened. After some time in America and hearing what happened I managed to grab someone worth mentioning to you." Hiretsu said as he grabbed the tea from the desk and took a few sips, "He's very loyal, if he meets the Students he'll be more than happy to protect them at all costs." He put the cup back down before continuing
"Unless of course, you don't trust me. I get it, it's been years since our departure from the labs. I figure you hold some type of grudge against me. I hope you won't hold it against me."
For a brief moment, the both of them were brought back to the past. The needles, the tests and the cages they were by separated everyday. The conversations of hope they would have to be saved during the night.
Things were different now though, even if they were both better. That day they had escaped the labs was the day they separated on bad terms. That was something Nedzu knew Hiretsu could never take back. Before the two could say anything else, the door abruptly opened revealing a Slightly panicked Aizawa and All Might right behind him. Hiretsu and Nedzu looked towards the door,
"I got here as soon as possible, where's the…" the sound of panic dumbed down as soon as Aizawa's eyes landed onto Hiretsu and Nedzu sitting down civilly.
"..What's exactly going on here? Nedzu…" Aizawa's voice seemed demanding, walking inside and heading towards the two.
"Well Aizawa, seems to me like we might have a new teacher joining us soon. Additionally, this is Hiretsu Kisei, an old friend of mine; Address him with his first name. Future business partner if I accept his offer." Nedzu turned towards Hiretsu, Hiretsu looked back.
"So, what will it be Nedzu? Do you accept my offer?"
