Naruto In My Hero Academia - Chapter 60
“This is your room now Eri…”
Holding her hand, Naruto walked her down the girl’s dorms and showed her, her very own room in the dorms. He had tried his hardest to pick out good furniture that she would be able to appreciate, but it was a little hard for him. Since Shark was going to be staying with her, as her comfort animal and bodyguard, he even placed an overly large dog bed in the corner of the room. At this point, Shark was more dog when it came to personality than real shark, with a touch of bear personality mixed in. He got some pretty normal furniture to be honest, but he had made sure to pick out a light pink color for the sheets and pillows, with apples on them for designs since she liked that food the most. Now, he wasn’t one to judge her, but he kind of wished she would love ramen a little more… again, he wasn’t going to push his favorite on her.
He was him, and she was she.
“… I don’t stay with you?” Eri asked with a noticeably sad tone to her voice.
“I’ll be just down the hall in the boy’s dorms if you need me for anything. Don’t worry, I’ll never be far away. If anything worries you, or makes you scared to be alone, I’ll be right there to make you all better.” Naruto rubbed the top of her head. Being the first back before the others had a few perks, since he needed to introduce Eri to everyone eventually. He had gotten the chance to let Eri get used to her own room, that wasn’t a reminder of her horrible past, in a way that would feel natural for her. This would give him the time to come up with an excuse for why he hadn’t visited his girlfriend (despite them living in the same building) all week long. He would also be able to investigate why everyone seemed to be hiding some kind of secret from him, and whispering to each other in secrecy in general.
He hated being left out on secrets.
“You’ll make me all better?” Eri whispered as she was walked into the room, and Naruto sat on her bed, and motioned for her to join him.
“Now, I do want to go over what you’ll be doing during the days from now on.” Naruto started off.
Eri wasn’t just going to be sitting around, doing nothing either. She was 6 years old, that was old enough for her to attend school herself. She couldn’t do that of course, but this was a school. There existed teachers that could give her an education until it was safe for her to go to a school for kid’s her age. He wasn’t exactly the greatest teacher, so it was the one thing he would really, truly, need help with when it came to her.
He didn’t want the girl to turn into an idiot, all because he wasn’t able to teach her properly.
If she became an idiot, then he wanted it to be because that was what she chose to be.
-In Mina’s Room-
“Oh my god!… That week was boring…” Mina yawned, tired from the sheer lack of anything that happened. All she did, much to her annoyance, was go on patrols with her hero. She didn’t even see her hero fight or anything, just patrols and lectures, and more patrols. Yet, Naruto, Todoroki, Tsuyu, and even Kyoka all had villain encounters that made it to the news.
Mina smiled to herself.
It wasn’t a total waste though, she patrolled in the mall too, which gave her the chance to buy something for herself that she just found so adorable. The cutest, most adorable, fox plushie of her boyfriend that she had found. It was a 2 foot tall chibi plushie of Naruto as All Right, including a cute little cape and everything. In this fast pace world of heroes, where popularity is always changing, malls and toy companies learned to rather instantly market the toys of any rising star hero that they could find in the news. Usually, it wouldn’t even be a few days before the popular new heroes had plush toy lines or posters made of them. Since Naruto was already super popular as Fox-Man, officially coming out as All Right had reignited his popularity, and even raised it further when people compared “All Right” to All Might and found their similarities.
Mina closed her eyes, and allowed her hand to drift down her stomach-
“Hey Mina-”
“-Nothing! Hey Kyoka, whatcha need, hahahaha!?” Mina shouted with a forced grin on her face. She removed her hand from her stomach as quickly as she could, sitting straight up in her bed, a nervous sweat on her face. She looked at her open door, and realized that she had forgotten to close it behind her when she entered the room. What was worse, was the fact that she knew that Kyoka didn’t do anything wrong. She had not been paying attention, and had almost gotten caught taking care of her human needs herself.
Kyoka, thankfully, didn’t notice what she had been about to do, and just waved a hand at her.
“Some of us are getting together, to thank Naruto, for helping us get really good internships. We were thinking of putting together a small party, before we go back to class tomorrow. He’s been running himself ragged for us, so it would be really nice if we could get your help.” Kyoka put her hands together. It was all she could think to do to thank Naruto, gather all of the students in their class who had been helped in one way or another by Naruto, and just throw a small party to show their appreciation for all the work he put into helping all of them.
Mina blinked and tilted her head.
“I’m okay with helping and it sounds like fun, but Naruto wouldn’t want you to thank him. He is happy to help his friends.” Mina pointed out as she stood up.
Kirishima came into the room.
“Oh, I told her, but honestly, the guy has been really stressed out. Naruto is your boyfriend, he helped me and Kyoka train, he started getting up early and running with Tsuyu, he gives Deku tips, he’s been working out with Ojiro with his tail, and he still makes sure to study with Yaoyorozu 2 or 3 nights a week, and now he has even more stress in his life… dude really needs this party to lighten up. He’s nearly died a few times this year as well.” Kirishima pointed out as he walked next to Kyoka. “I got permission from Midnight to use the pool, and set up a grill… she said it was fine as long as we didn’t do anything she wouldn’t do.” Kirishima pointed out, then he shivered.
Midnight didn’t exactly have the best reputation, as the 18+ Rated Hero, so “what she wouldn’t do” wasn’t exactly the best indicator for what she didn’t want them doing.
For all he knew, she would be fine with a giant Class A orgy happening.
“Sounds awesome… but honestly, he might not even show up… right now, he must be really tired from the internship. Knowing him, he is going to be ignoring how tired he is, and training right now.” Mina pointed out a big flaw in their plan. “What are we going to do at the party anyway?” Mina wanted to know what she was signing up for.
Kyoka blushed a little and tapped her jacks together.
“Well… We were going to have a BBQ, maybe some swimming… just a pool party kind of thing. Nothing big or anything.” Kyoka didn’t want to make everyone prepare for something huge, and she was sure Naruto would be fine with anything really.
She just wanted to show her appreciation, and she had something special prepared for Naruto… a small gift from her that was apart from the party.
“Yeah, Naruto got me a really cool internship with Godzillo, and I learned a lot! I’m going to be baking a really tasty cake for him, and Aoyama is bringing… cheese… and hopefully non-alcoholic wine.” Sato walked by her door with several shopping bags filled with cooking ingredients. He was going to spend the rest of his time until the party, making and decorating the cake. He hadn’t really gotten any good offers from any heroes, so Naruto wrote him a recommendation letter so that he could work under Godzillo.
Koji followed after, nodding his head.
He had gotten no offers, and Naruto had gotten him an internship under the Wild, Wild Pussycats. As weird as it had been, he had learned what kind of hero he wanted to be. He didn’t want to be a big city hero, he wanted to use his animal based Quirk to help people who got heard in nature. He wanted to use his abilities to seek and rescue survivor’s of dangerous accidents.
“Cheese, cake, and BBQ… well cheese and BBQ go well together. What can I help with?” Mina didn’t really understand what she could provide.
She couldn’t cook, she could dance and stuff, but-
“Just help setting you… Kirishima is already working on keeping Naruto busy, right Kirishima?” Kyoka asked with a look to the red haired boy. She knew that he knew how to distract Naruto better than anyone else among them. As best bros, that much was to be expected of him.
He gave her a thumbs up.
“Deku and Uraraka are on it right now, I told them just how to get Naruto to chase them, and the best way to avoid getting caught.”
-With Deku and Ochaco-
“Come back here you son of a bitch!”
Naruto’s shouts of anger only fueled a large figure, standing taller than a normal person, who was wearing a heavy black cloak to run even faster than before.
‘This was a HORRIBLE idea!’ Ochaco thought as she sat on Izuku’s shoulders inside of the cloak. She was holding onto him for dear life, while also using her Quirk to make him weight nothing. All that was keeping him on the ground was her own weight, so he was much faster than he usually was. Kirishima had told them the plan to throw Naruto a thank you party when they all started to get back from their internships, and she had wrongly agreed to be the live bait.
Also, why was Naruto so angry at them for something so stupid?!
All she did was take a bite out of an entire kit-kat bar, without breaking it, and then she tossed the chocolate on the ground in front of Naruto, before she got Deku to stomp on it to pieces.
‘Legs, please don’t fail me now!’ Izuku prayed to any and all gods out there. He was pretty sure that Naruto, when he caught them, was going to beat the ever loving shit out of them until he realized they were his friends.
-Mina’s Room-
“Kit-Kat bar?” Mina asked Kirishima with a knowing look, who nodded his head with a grin.
“Kit-Kat bar?” Kyoka had no clue what to make of Mina asking that. Yeah, Kirishima had given Izuku a Kit-Kat bar and a list of written instructions, but she didn’t know how that would lure out Naruto and keep him busy.
“Naruto, and I, believe that you can tell a lot about a person by how they eat a Kit-Kat bar… also, when Naruto had been injured by that Himiko girl-” Kirishima chose to ignore Mina’s angry growl at the name. “-Naruto gained a small… issue with people who bite it before breaking it. I told those two to bite it, and then throw it on the ground and stomp it… knowing Naruto, he’ll get a flashback of Himiko and chase them.” Kirishima knew full well he had just thrown Ochaco and Izuku to their doom, but he had also given them instructions on how to evade Naruto for long enough for them to get their party set up.
“Wait… there is a way to evade Naruto?” Mina didn’t know about this.
This would be great for her to know.
“It’s easy… when Naruto gets angry, but not super angry, sometimes he forgets to use his Quirk. Once Naruto remembers to use his Quirk, Deku and Uraraka are screwed, so we need to get this party set up before then.” Kirishima didn’t give her anything useful. She didn’t intend on angering him like that.
Oh well, a party was a party.
Maybe this time, the world wouldn’t be put in dange
