48 Hero names!

Bullet arrived in class and let out a breath, smiling happily, "Just in time!" Ochako covered her mouth and spat out, hes three hours late!

Bullet walked to his seat in front of Momo and behind Izuku. Momo tapped his shoulder and whispered "Drama… you watch?" Bullet turned and his face was an inch away as he whispered in shock "I watch! You see old king?! So crazy!" Momo's eyes were sparkling as she squished his cheeks, saying "I KNOW! But Empress Dowager real mastermind!" Bullet sighed and shook his head, "So crazy, Bullet don't believe." Aizawa coughed and the duo returned to normal as though they weren't just talking. Aizawa went on, "Today, you've got Hero informatics class… and a special one at that. You'll be choosing your Hero names."

The class erupted in cheers while Bullet looked confused but cheered anyway.

Aizawa continued "But first! Concerning the Pro draft picks I mentioned the other day. It's based on the Pro Heroes that think you'll be ready to join the Hero Workforce in another two or three years… So you could say they're interested in your futures. That means that there's ample time for them to take back their applications before you graduate…"

He clicked a remote and said "Here are the Draft Picks."

Everyone looked at the numbers and were shocked, Katsuki and Todoroki got over 3000 each! Fumikage was in third place with 300…

Momo looked at the 10 applications and was shocked, "O-Only 10?"

Ochako got 20!

Bullet looked and didn't see his name at all!

He blinked and didn't know what this meant.

Aizawa looked at him and sighed before continuing "Typically there's more of a spread… But these two stole the spotlight."

Izuku muttered "But what about Bullet?" everyone fell silent and Aizawa said, "Don't worry about him… He got applications…" he furrowed his brows and added, "From, well let's just call them 'Unreliable' sources for now…"

Shoto asked, "Vigilantes can apply too?" Aizawa snorted and replied "They were mostly phone calls… And vigilantism is a crime, so without a single Pro Hero Application, Bullet has none that he can apply for. At any rate, even if you weren't picked you will all be working alongside the pros. You've faced villains before but learning up close and personal with a Pro will help you out in the future…"

He let out a breath and went on, "Your names are only tentative, but you should still pick something appropriate…" Midnight kicked the door in, sashaying into the room, smiling as she finished "OR ELSE YOU'LL KNOW TRUE HELL!"

Everyone looked at her and Denki wiped his drool as Jiro glared at him angrily. Midnight continued "The name you pick now may be what the world calls you in the future. That's happened to plenty of Pros out there." Aizawa nodded and yawned, getting in a sleeping bag as he spoke, "Midnight will be assessing your names. What future do you see for yourself? The name you choose will bring you closer to cementing a certain image, because names are capable of reflecting one's true character."

Everyone was handed huge cards with markers and Bullet blinked, Midnight leaned over and held his cheeks, saying "Hero Name. You pick. Me judge. Okay~?" Bullet understood and nodded, smiling kindly "Thank you."

Midnight leaned back, holding her forehead, "Ah~! So cute!"

Bullet looked at the card and stared at it, his eyes getting bloodshot…

Momo looked troubled and asked Shoto, "What should I name myself?" Shoto blinked and thought about it before saying firmly "I don't know." Momo paused and looked at his card, seeing his own name.

She laughed twice and turned back, saying "You're cute but sometimes I worry about you…" Shoto scratched his head, muttering "Is it that bad…?" Izuku was biting on the marker cap, holding his hair as he muttered endlessly.

Momo looked over Bullet's shoulder to see nothing. She asked "Do you need help?" Several people were enlightened! They turned to Bullet and asked "WHAT SHOULD MY NAME BE!?"

Bullet was stunned and held out his hands, saying worriedly "I don't have money…" they ignored his nonsense and Momo asked "Name, me, what?" Bullet looked at her before touching his chin, "Make all things! Cool! Cool name." he snapped his fingers, "One-Man Army Hero: Arsenal."

Momo was dazed.

Bullet pointed at Shoto and said "Ice Fire together! Half-Half Hero: Freeze Flames!" he turned to Ochako, who didn't even ask, saying "Queen of Gravity!" then at Fumikage, "Lord Abyss!"

All three, dazed.

He snapped at Mina, "Queen Concubine!"

Mina, dazed!

Then Shoji, "Kraken!"

Shoji, dazed!

Then Midnight, "Aphrodisiac!"

Midnight, stunned!

Then Aizawa, "Night Hawk!"

Aizawa, angry!

He looked at Izuku and said "Deku make Bullet think Acorns! No good!" as he made an 'X' with his arms, adding "Need be crazy! Prince of Smash!"

Izuku, dumbfounded!

He nodded and snorted smoke from his nose, "You need name. Bullet give!" as he shot a thumbs up to everyone else!

Everyone else, speechless!

Shoto let out a breath and said seriously "The first few were good… the rest…" Mina was still dazed, pointing at herself, muttering "Q-Q-Queen Concubine?" Ochako muttered "Queen of Gravity?" Mina looked at her and laughed "We can both be Queen!" Ochako's lips twitched…

Midnight covered her mouth, "So cute! But you should really pick a name that you like, everyone. After all, if you're stuck with 'Queen Concubine' for the rest of your life…" she sighed and shook her head, spreading her hands to the side.

Shoji muttered "Kraken… Sounds good?"

Momo let out a breath and walked to the front, slamming her card down, exhaling smoke from her nose.

[One-Man Army Hero: Arsenal]

Shoto followed her using [Half-Half Hero: Freeze Flame]

Bullet crossed his arms and snorted, grinning with his thumbs up.

After everyone went, only Ida, Izuku, and Bullet were left.

Ida chose his own name and said "Not ready yet…" Midnight covered her mouth and nodded, "So serious!" Izuku looked at the blank card and thought of an acorn for some reason.

He looked over at Ochako who went with Uravity! She looked over and smiled gently, nodding at him. Izuku firmed up and wrote down before showing everyone.

[Deku]

Bullet sighed, "Bullet think too simple. Maybe Super Deku. Deku Smash. Ultra Deku. Great Deku Tree." Izuku's lips twitched and Bullet punched his palm, saying in shock "Bullet call you King of Gravity."

Izuku was confused and Ochako froze, her face turning red as she floated up to the ceiling in a daze.

Momo laughed and Midnight looked at Bullet, "You're last." Bullet didn't know how to write. He looked troubled and Izuku walked back, asking "Need help?" Momo leaned over, "I can help too!" Bullet raised the marker, saying "Can't write."

Izuku took it asking "What?" Bullet told him and Izuku was startled before asking if he was sure before writing it as Bullet nodded.

Bullet walked to the front and showed everyone, smiling. Midnight paused and looked at Bullet as he explained happily "People think need name. Bullet don't want name…" he struggled before saying "Bullet wear mask. Who under mask? Not name, anybody can be. See No name hero, think, maybe me hero too?"

Bullet smiled gently, lifting up the sign.

[Quirkless Hero: N/A]

Aizawa looked at Bullet and snorted in amusement, closing his eyes. Midnight let out a breath and smiled, "Here. I fix." she took a marker and changed it.

[Quirkless Hero: Nameless]

She explained "Even no name, still a name. Understand?" Bullet looked at it and nodded, smiling, "Thank you!" Midnight ruffled his hair, really liking this cute little dummy.
