CHAPTER START---
Sitting in class with everyone else Horizon sees Eraser Head trudge in, sleeping bag slung over his shoulder.
'God I hope we don't have hero training in the rain,' he thinks, hoping that even if they have combat training this afternoon it will at least be inside.
"Today you'll be picking hero names," Eraser says, and the entire class goes wild. "Settle down!"
Everyone sits quietly as he continues.
"Since we're opening internships to first years because of all the increased villain activity, you'll need Hero Names to operate in the field. They don't become permanent until you get a Provisional License and complete the three-year trial period to become an official Pro Hero, you've got until then to think of your final one. But some of you will likely get famous enough that you won't be able to just swap it, so make these temporary ones good enough to be the real deal in case that happens."
'I wonder what these people are gonna choose,' Horizon glances about the room, already having thought up some cool names for his classmates, but their names aren't his problem.
"Anyway, Midnight will be handling this, it's not really my specialty," Eraser sits in the corner in his sleeping bag and begins nodding off as Midnight enters.
Half the boys in class are immediately entranced by her skin-tight and provocative outfit, but Horizon just rolls his eyes at her grandiose speech.
"---now for an example," Midnight eventually says. "The best Hero Names tell a story of who you are, so how about we have Horizon come up and explain his since it is already decided."
The entire class turns to him, but only a few hadn't figured this out already.
"Alright, but I'm only doing this once..." Horizon says as he walks to the board, writing his full Hero Name and title.
'Horizon: The Miracle.'
Notably 'Horizon' was in English while the rest was Japanese. he then turns to the class to explain.
"So... usually the title, in my case 'The Miracle,' would be at the front and some stupid corny shit like 'The miracle hero' or something like that. I changed it to the back and made it shorter as a show of finality and to make it all sleeker. 'The Miracle' is descriptive, because I do perform what would otherwise be miracles. And 'Horizon' is always in English instead of Japanese, because I want the meaning of 'the limit of a person's knowledge and experience,' rather than the sunset over the edge of the world stuff...
Oh, and another reason I took it is that compared to everyone else that's how far ahead I am...but Nezu prefers the idea that when people see me on the Horizon they know everything will be ok. But just between us, my logo is on my back for a reason.
So yeah everything from my name, to the visor, to my Hero Costume and weapon, all are designed to give a sense of efficiency and superiority...and it's been working..."
He silently walks back to his seat and leans back in his chair.
"Uh...right," Midnight awkwardly coughs to get all eyes back on her. "Well there you have it, a well-thought-out Hero Name and image, so think very carefully about how you want people to look at you in the future when deciding your names."
The entire room suddenly feels a lot more pressure on them, realizing that they'd hardly given any thought to their image as a hero, now wracking their brains to think of something good.
"Alright, who wants to go next?" Midnight asks ten minutes later...
After the final name is revealed Horizon just shakes his head as he recalls what they'd all be called.
'Shining Hero: Can't Stop Twinkling, actually retarded.
Pinky, sounds like a character from a children's book, made for very slow babies.
Rainy Season Hero: Froppy, cute, and simple like her.
Uravity, from the same book as Pinky.
Martial Arts Hero: Tailman, at least its better than Tail Boy, guess he doesn't have much to work with anyway.
Stun Gun Hero: Chargebolt, that's actually a good one.
Sturdy Hero: Red Riot, fanboy nonsense.
Petting Hero: Anima, also from the same children's book, but sounds like it shouldn't be allowed near children.
Sweets Hero: Sugarman, from that same children's book...what is wrong with these morons.
Tentacle Hero: Tentacole, not awful, guess he doesn't have much to work with.
Hearing Hero: Earphone Jack, the music girl is the least creative in class, that's surprising, pretty lame name.
Taping Hero: Cellophane, not bad Sero.
Jet-Black Hero: Tsukuyomi, ok that's cool.
Stealth Hero: Invisible Girl, descriptive, can't be mad at that.
Deku, also descriptive, guess this will eventually become 'cripple boy'.
Everything Hero: Creati...what a fucking disappointment, guess she's in the same book for slow children.
And Bakugo, Shoto, and Iida are all undecided or using their first names...'
As Midnight leaves to go file the names Eraser returns to the front of the class and taps the board once.
"Alright, these are the offers you each received from the sports festival, you've got until Friday afternoon to decide who you'll be interning with and submit the forms. Even those who didn't get offers will be interning with someone, you'll have a list of forty agencies to choose from."
He steps to the side for everyone to get a good look at the board.
Horizon- 8452
Bakugo- 4132
Todoroki- 3476
Tokoyami- 623
Iida- 187
Kirishima- 92
Momo- 48
Sero- 27
Nobody is surprised at how many offers Horizon got, they expected that every agency in the country would want the only Warping hero in the world working for them. Seeing him at the top of every list was a common occurrence by now.
"Think very carefully about who you choose," Eraser says while passing out the forms, placing a massive stack on Horizon's desk. "Consider what type of hero you want to be, what aspects of it you want to focus on. If you want to focus on rescues then maybe you should pick an agency that matches that. You should also consider location and local crime rates depending on how much action you want.
If these pros take a liking to you they could keep investing in you and sign you as a sidekick when you go Pro, and if you don't act properly you could quickly become someone that Pros will avoid working with. So mind your manners.
The internship will last one week and you'll be staying with the pro until it's over, so also be aware of that when you're preparing."
Looking at the stack of paper Horizon's eyes are immediately glued to the name at the top of the very first page.
'Endeavor actually sent me a request...what the hell,' he sits back and stares at it. 'This is literally the perfect choice.
But considering my relationship with Shoto it's probably not the best idea to go there and get involved in that bullshit.
But it's not like he can hurt me since he's the #2 Pro Hero in Japan, and maybe he just wants to know why I kicked in Shoto's teeth.
And if needed I've got dirt on him because his idiot son put his family business out there, that way I at least know he can't do anything to make me look bad as some stupid revenge.'
Horizon flips the first two pages, since the agencies and heroes are ordered by ranking he only checked the top ten, not seeing Mirko.
'Guess my golden ticket to actually fight villains didn't send an offer. The one time I actually want one of those stupid fucking meatheads around...and at least Hawks was smart enough not to send me an offer, whatever, Endeavor it is,' he immediately begins filling out his form.
As Eraser leaves the room people begin discussing their options, and Tokoyami turns to Horizon. "You're already filling out the form?"
"Yeah, have you decided yet?"
"I received an offer from Hawks," Tokoyami says. "I hadn't expected to be noticed by someone so capable. Or for any pro to tolerate the darkness dwelling within me..."
Everyone around immediately launches a barrage of questions at Tokoyami, jealous and excited at the idea of their classmate working with the #3 Pro Hero.
"What about you?" Tokoyami asks Horizon, and all eyes turn to him.
"Oh, Endeavor sent me a request," Horizon shrugs, and the entire class falls silent, nervously glancing between Shoto and Horizon.
"My father sent you a request?" Shoto growls out, obvious anger on his face.
Horizon slowly swivels around in his chair to look back at him, "don't take it too seriously, probably wants to know why I had to put you in your place, then he'll just put me on desk duty while you two run around the city. I just need my record to show that I worked with him, that'll open a lot of options for me in the future...not that I need the boost, but better safe than sorry."
Everyone just silently watches the interaction, as Shoto looked up at Horizon his face went from anger to slightly fearful, and he immediately looked down at his desk.
"Oh c'mon," Horizon groans loudly. "No need to act like a pussy around me, I barely even touched you in that fight, get over it. So long as you watch your mouth you don't have anything to worry about..." he turns back to his desk to fill out the form.
After a few minutes, he gets a notification on the inside of his visor.
'Nezu: My office after school.'
'Oh great, it's gonna be one of those days...'
