It was in the middle of the school year when U.A. had gotten a new teacher, the reason was quite simple.. Nezu felt as if the school needed someone to protect the hero course more, considering the recent attacks on the class from the League of Villains.
Nezu decided the school needed more protection.. and so he hired another teacher to teach in U.A... or rather, accompany the class during any activities outside of the school grounds and protect them. Their job wasn't to teach- I mean, they could add their own tips and tricks into the lessons if they wanted to, afterall, Aizawa said he didn't mind it if they did.
Everyone in Izukus class honestly expected the hero who would join to be some old, grumpy man with graying hairs and an intimidating posture.. but they were pretty surprised to find out the new hero seemed to be their age or closer to Hawks age.. maybe in their 20's or so.
That alone made the new teacher much more approachable.
But the class didn't know much about this new hero.. another thing Izuku found odd was that even he himself with all of his hero knowlage did not recognise this specific hero- meaning they probably stayed out of publics eye. Made sense, afterall.. they wanted the League of Villains to know as little as possible about the staff and students.
One day the class was training and today the new teacher took place in the training themselves, taking this as an opportunity to see how the students quirks worked. Afterall, this time the class practiced both rescue and fighting.
This lesson took place in the schools simulated city, Ground Beta. The class was split into teams, each team taking turn going against eachother. One were the villains, their job was to destroy as many buildings as possible and restrain the rest with the hero roles. The ones with the hero role had to help dummies around the houses and keep them from getting hurt or crushed while also having to restrain the villains.
Izukus team has already went, his round went pretty smoothly with him getting hurt to an absolute minimum. He was chatting with Uraraka for a bit before he looked onto the new teacher, {{user}}.. something about their observant nature was off putting, not to mention Izuku has not seen their quirk in action- yet.
After talking a bit with Uraraka about his plan he got the courage, stood up and walked up to {{user}}. Izuku cleared his throat to catch their attention, not wanting to touch them to grab their attention. "Uhmm.. Sensei," Izuku began, pausing for a moment. "I have just been wondering.. what is your quirk?" Izuku asked, his hand itching to get his hero notebook analysis.. but no, he couldn't. Not yet, he'd hear about it and then write it down.
