Dark Paladin stood atop Shibuya Sky overlooking the city. He couldn't believe it's been four years since he'd been home. His time in the States and in the Undercity of Kessel made him appreciate the province and country in a way he never did before. He took it for granted and he almost lost it to the Nomu. Even with All for One and his lackeys gone, crime and villainy still ran rampant in Japan. Discovering that the mayor of Shibuya was a villain was the last straw. Corruption had tangled the city and likely country in its dastardly web. He'd just have to figure out the pattern of this web so he could stomp out the colony of spiders that claimed his home as its nest.

His attention was caught by a human sized light floating up to him. Dark Paladin sighed when his floating sister reached him. [color=gray]"What're you doing here? You know night's my jurisdiction... And why are you upside down?"[/color]

[color=gold]"Aww, don't be like that Naito! America was big enough for that, but now that we're home why don't we do teamups?"[/color] Hinata asked with a smile almost as bright as she was.

[color=gray]"You know I'm not Naito right now and if you're gonna waste energy at least turn your light off. I don't know how you became Number 2 back there. You're wasteful and you leave too many openings when you fight."[/color]

Hinata frowned and in response her light faded. [color=gold]"You're still upset about that? I told you. It doesn't matter how many crimes you stop if you don't connect with the people. Why do you have to wear that helmet? I understood at the beginning. You wanted to protect yourself, to protect Naito. But he's strong now. Physically and mentally. When will you two become one again?"[/color]

There was an eerily silent pause as if Dark Paladin nor Naito inside him knew the answer to their sister's question. [color=gray]"We can't, yet. There's still so much I have to do."[/color] Whether Hinata wanted to continue their conversation, Dark Paladin was ending it right there. Without a warning or another word he jumped off the roof pulling out his grappling hook as he did so.

Naito thought schools in the states were noisy, but Kyoya gave them a run for their money. He seemed like the type of character you'd see on one of their TV shows. Loud, confident, and no concept of personal space. He thought it was strange that their homeroom teacher was speaking to them via hologram and then just dumping them on five older students. He was going to have to talk to uncle Enji about how he decided to run a school. But that would have to wait. It seemed that he couldn't escape Kessel after all. It was calling out to him even here and somehow influenced his school into bringing them there on a field trip before the new school year officially started. Good. He had some unfinished business there that he didn't like leaving unattended.

Naito gave a smile and wave once their Holoteacher gave him and his sister an offhanded introduction. Like they were just some kind of duo because they were twins. They had their own identities outside of that and their last names. He didn't want his classmates thinking they thought they were better than them just because of who they were related to. Hero relations became less important as many families produced a number of heroes and had quirk marriages to further develop the powers of their quirks. He was glad that his parents naturally fell in love. Their quirks just happened to really be compatible or incompatible in Naito's case. He was disappointed when the Class Rep reassured them that they weren't dealing with chains and cages. He was already beginning to prepare himself for an escape room training exercise.

Meanwhile Hinata was just taking everything in. This class seemed... interesting. That's the word she felt comfortable using to describe this colorful bunch. She was glad Haru was in this class, but was surprised that he wasn't in Class A. She decided not to question that horse's dental hygiene. Then she saw him, another one of her friends, but this one she made back when she was in the United States. As charismatic and show-offy as ever. While everyone was discussing whatever it was they were discussing she looked over the new Hero Rankings List. This was her competition. She couldn't wait to surpass Nejire. She looked up to her and almost went to UA because she went there, but was glad she spent the time in America instead. This Spiderman was interesting though. He embodied exactly what she was trying to tell Naito. He connected with the people.

Hinata leaned over to Naito and whispered to him. [color=gold]"Look! Ironman's #4. That could be you too, Naito. It's a Quirkless come up!"[/color]

Before Naito could respond Ace asked for introductions, catching both of their attentions. Hinata stood up to introduce herself first. She bowed respectively and apologetically to her class. [color=gold]"I'm sorry for not being here to help you all in the Shibuya Incident! I'm Hinata Todoroki, or Solaris, the #2 Hero in the United States. That is until they update it again now that I'm gone. I'm looking forward to learning with and getting to know you all! And it's great to see you again, Ace."[/color] She sat down immediately after giving someone else a chance to introduce themselves.

Naito stood up next, because why not? He was a new student after all so he was also introducing himself to his classmates. [color=gray]"Hi, I'm Naito. I also go by Dark Paladin when I'm in costume. I'm Quirkless, but I don't hold that against anyone. I want to be a hero that can reach villain's hearts and minds which is why I'm double majoring with Quirk Psychology. And ummm... I just recently returned from Otheon if anyone needs a tour guide."[/color] He sat down hoping he didn't just embarrass himself.
