How lazy... Lena thought as she leaned back at her desk with her head in her arms. The last few days were so exciting that this just feels simply dull....

After the battle against the Hero Killer, now called The Anti Hero, Stain. Lena stayed in the hospital for two days until she was released and was able to return to Nighteye's Agency, where Nighteye greeted her asking how she was doing, which threw her off a bit as she didn't expect someone as cold as Nighteye to care about her, though it was that very thing that made her glad to see that he cared about her.

Although to her, he would always be a pervert.

She did her patrols alongside Mirio, which became a bit more protective but it wasn't like it bothered Lena, so she left it at that.

And now after the week of internships she went back to UA, where she was dying of sleep and boredom. There was no one in the room yet, except for Midoriya, Uraraka, Lida and her.

Lena raised her head a little to look at Lida, who was talking to Midoriya and Uraraka, and couldn't help but remember the conversation they had at the hospital.

 

 

Lena approached Lida's bed with her characteristic smile, she was happy that they could leave quickly. Though it was this happiness that the didn't make her see the gloomy aura around Lida. "Hey Lida, how was your physical?. On my side, they only told me not to move my shoulder abruptly since the cut was deep, but fortunately I didn't touch anything that would hinder my mobility permanently."

"I..." Lida raised his head to look at the smiling Lena. After a few seconds of silence considering whether to be honest with his condition, he let out a sigh and decided to speak truthfully. "Well, it looks like my left hand will have... long-term complications. Both of my arms took a lot of damage from Stain's blades, but it was my left arm that took the brunt of his attacks. I was told that my 'Brachial Plexus' is damaged."

Blinking twice, Lena's smile slowly faded to show her face with a slight frown of concern along with a sad look. She spoke in a low tone. "That... I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

Lida shook his head before giving Lena a weak smile. "Don't apologize, it sounds very serious, but it just means not being able to move a couple of fingers properly and it will be a bit uncomfortable to move the arm properly. Actually, if I have surgery there shouldn't be any problem."

Lena rolled her eyes for a moment, before letting out a sigh. "Haa...that's a relief, I thought you'd be left with a useless arm, then just one surgery and you're good as new."

Lida simply looked down at his cast arm, hiding his face from Lena's gaze. "I thought the same thing too... but I'm going to leave this damage to my body."

"What?! Why?!"

Lida looked up at Lena, the latter was surprised by the determined look in Lida's eyes. "What Stain said is true, I'm not a true Hero, not yet. And until I don't get to be a real Hero, this wound will stay with me."

 

 

Stupid robot... What if someone dies because of that injury?.... Lena thought bitterly before burying her face in her arms again. "But I respect your decision..." Lena muttered under her breath.

"Did you say something?"

Looking up slowly she saw Kyoka looking at her with a curious look. "Nah, just thinking to myself. Changing the subject, how was your internship?"

Kyoka just stared at her for a few moments, which made Lena strangely nervous for some reason, before sitting down in the booth next to her and giving Lena a slight smile. "It was good, even though I don't participate in patrols much, Edgeshot himself trained me quite a bit."

"Did he teach you how to throw Kunais or something?"

"Pfff... nah, that's a surprise, I'll just tell you that stealth is great."

"Hello to both of you! How were your internships!" A girl we had never seen before approached us as if we were her lifelong friends.

Her hair was yellowish green, with strange blue eyes and yellow pupils. While Lena has a curvy body and Momo has a voluptuous body. So the girl had a curvy body with big hips and a small waist, but not much chest.

Kyoka and Lena looked at each other, and seeing that neither of them recognized her they just stared at her with a confused face.

"Hehehehe."

"That laugh..." It seemed familiar to Lena, until something clicked in her head. "TORU?!"

"BINGO!"

Kyoka looked at her with wide eyes like saucers. "Huh, so you were finally able to make yourself visible with your Quirk?!"

Toru smiled happily before pointing at Kyoka as if she had won a grand prize. "Something like that! I think Lena said it once, I just slightly control the light around me so that my body isn't affected by it, which makes me visible to people's eyes!"

That made Lena smile on the outside, and dumbfounded on the inside. I just said it as a theory... I didn't expect it to be reality... shit, so that means she can make illusions... damn it Toru.

While Lena was having a mental breakdown, Toru was talking together with Kyoka about their internships, they were soon joined by Momo, who unfortunately for the poor millionaire, Lena started embarrassing her with the commercial she did about a hair shampoo.

Gradually more and more people came in until the room was completely full-

"HAHAHAHAHAHA WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HEAD?!!!!"

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!"

"YOU LOOK LIKE JUSTIN BIEBER!!!"

Ignoring Bakugo's cosplay (?), the class began with All Might's normal entrance to the class telling them to go to Ground Gamma for a Heroic competition.

As they walked to Ground Gamma, Lena sank back into her thoughts. Maybe... I should get a ranged weapon, if I encounter another Villain like Stain, melee will not be enough....

During their fight with Stain, it was quite obvious to everyone that Stain was just toying with them. If he had at any point wanted them dead, they would have been dead and there was nothing they could do.

She was outmatched in hand-to-hand combat, which is her main fighting weapon.

I need to get stronger...
