Light Human In MHA

It has been about three weeks since my interrogation, my psychological tests have come out clean. I was just as sane as everyone else. The only thing to come out was that my maturity was a bit more than that of a regular 15-year-old.

My trial will be later this week, It will be a public trial, even cameras will be allowed.

Now sitting in my cell, I could feel three people approaching it. When the door opened, I was greeted by a rat-bear-dog? Who knows. He was Nezu. Behind him were Toshinori and Aizawa.

I greeted them with a great smile on my face.

"Oooh, good day! I'm happy that you decided to visit me at my humble residence." I could see the veins on Aizawas' forehead. Apparently, my sarcasm was not that well hidden.

Nezu, however, found my greeting to be somewhat amusing. He did his usual shtick.

"Am I a mouse? A dog? A bear? My real identity is--" He made a comedic pause, I looked like the anticipation was going to kill me. My eyes were wide and my mind was ready for the truth.

"The principal of UA!" I suddenly looked dead inside. Don't even know what I was expecting... At this rate, he'll remain a dilemma forever.

Aizawa also looked dead inside, but I think that's just his default skin. Toshinori looked skinny as usual.

Nezu quickly continued. "Truth is, we are actually here to talk about your future!" That's what I was expecting to hear.

"Wouldn't that be the subject of tomorrow's trial?" I asked with curiosity, I already knew what he was insinuating. In such a high profile case the verdict is given before the trial even starts. Meaning he already knows what it was and could interfere with it.

"Tomorrow's trial will not need to happen if you agree to my proposition!

"I am here to extend an offer to you! I want you to work at UA! You'll also get a Provisional Hero Licence!" Was he always this excited when speaking?

I was expecting a provisional licence, but I was thinking that he would extend an offer to join the school in the next year or something. I guess Nezu isn't that easy to predict.

Seeing as my reaction wasn't too bad, he continued." On paper it would be something like a house arrest, you would be in an environment filled with Pro Heroes. In our system, you would also gain a chance to get a hero licence!"

"Sounds good, but how do you plan on convincing the court?" I was curious about his strategy here, there were a few approaches he could take.

"That's not something you should worry about. I don't even need to do anything, no judge would give you a harsh sentence. The public outrage would be too much to handle." He was making a good point, even with a light sentence a lot of people would be displeased, my fame was still useful in the end.

His approach was to propose an unusual 'punishment', one in which I had a chance to become a licenced hero and clean my record. The work I'd do at UA would most likely be classified as a form of community labour.

"So, do you accept? You don't really have much time to choose, we are on a tight schedule." Even asking that was a formality, not much choice here. It's between that and getting a light sentence from a random judge.

"Sure, sounds fun." Nezu totally expected my answer. He didn't even bother pretending to be surprised.

"Ok, just so you know, you will also be enrolled in our General Studies department next year. We still want you to get an education." Nezu said this in an excited tone. After that, they left, probably to talk to his connections.

This was what I was expecting in the first place, joining as a student was to be expected. They probably enrolled me in general studies because I already had experience as a vigilante. I already knew how to be a hero, I only needed to take an exam and get an actual hero licence at the appropriate age.

Now I only needed to wait, with this deal done I didn't need to worry about fixing my hair for the trial, looking into the mirror I could see that my usually short black hair was growing longer, I needed to get a haircut as soon as possible.

My droopy brown eyes were also looking tired, at least I didn't lose the everpresent goofy/lazy smile on my lips.

I needed some rest, my days were only going to get busier. After getting some leniency I needed to check on Giran, I had told him to check the market and tell me if a strange drug appeared in the next few months.

I also needed to check on my district. It had been a no-crime-zone for a few years, I would hope that even with my absence it wouldn't go to shit.

__________POV Narrator__________

But his hope was fruitless, as soon as the news of his capture reached the public criminal activity already spiked. There was no other reason for it, without the Yellow Flash present the villains got a lot bolder.

The Yellow Flash had used his speed to patrol the entire city several times every night, with him around attempting anything was a stupid endeavour. Now all they needed to worry about was regular heroes, none of them was competent enough to cover as much ground as the vigilante.

Even if they tried hard a lot of crimes still happened. They weren't as fast as him, they didn't put as much fear into villains like him. Their fear didn't stem from his heroic actions, it appeared from the ease with which he wiped out entire villainous organisations.

His very name was enough to send shivers down a villains spine.

The lazy attitude he had while he was observed taking down villains, they already knew he was on par with All Might. It was no longer a surprise, his age didn't matter much to them either, although it was a bit depressing for some of the more hardened villains to hear that they had been fearing a child.

The situation was getting chaotic, to the point where even All Might needed to step in more often. At this point, most of the public hoped the Yellow Flash would return.
