" Huh? For money?!
You want to become a hero for money?" Midoriya asked completely caught off guard.
" To boil it down simply, yes…" The brunette dipped her head in shame.
"Sorry it's such an unwholesome reason.
You two have such admirable motivations, it's embarrassing…" She hid her face in her palms looking down as the whole class stared at her.
" Why? How is having a goal to support your livelihood not admirable?" Iida asked genuinely not understanding what she finds so shameful about it.
" Iida kun is right. But it's unexpected." Midoriya added with a small smile.
" Hah… My family owns a construction company, but we haven't gotten any work at all, so we're flat broke.
This isn't really something to tell other people, though…" She looked down fiddling with her uniform on her lap.
" Construction…" Shoto thought out loud.
"Ah! With her Quirk, if she gets licensed, then it'd bring costs way down, right? She could make any raw material float.
They wouldn't need any heavy equipment." Momo suggested excitedly.
" Took the words right out of my mouth Yaoyoruzu san! " Iida exclaimed chopping his hands.
" Right? That's what I told Dad when I was little!" She looked up at them.
Then her childhood memories flashed infront of her.
When she said she wanted to work for their family business, her father looked at her kindly and asked again.
She remembered how she excitedly declared she wanted to help her dad and mom.
But then .... Her father rejected. He appreciated her thought. But he said that as her father, he'd be even more happier if she could achieve her dream. And that she could take them to Hawaii for a trip.
Her father had always been kind to her and her mother. Their family of three, while they faced poverty, they always stood together.
Her parents have supported her in every descision.
She will become a top ranked hero and earn a lot of money and make sure they won't need to even think about bills.
Shoto pondered offering her his old man's card.
" BULLSHIT!!! STOP LOOKING LIKE A SORRY ASS WHEN YOU JUST FUCKING WANT TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR FUCKING FAMILY!!" Bakugo yelled.
" Dude. You're the only person who can make giving support sound like a crime. " Denki sweatdropped.
"I'll definitely become a hero and make money and let my parents take it easy." She exclaimed with new determination .
Everyone looked at her in new light as Iida began clapping loudly.
" Bravo, Uraraka san!
Bravo! Bravo!" He clapped.
" Yeah! You're amazing! If I were you, I would have robbed banks! Show more pride in how morally aspiring you are babygirl!" Akira nodded approving the brunette.
" No!!!!" The class exclaimed at her.
" I take that back. Akira also can make giving support sound like a crime " Denki took back his words.
" What!? I won't get caught!" She reassured them.
" THAT'S NOT THE FUCKING POINT!!!" Bakugo yelled at her.
" Revelry in the dark. " Tokoyami closed his eyes.
" Damn Akira. If a bank is robbed anywhere, I'm suspecting you. " Jiro teased with one of her earphone jack pointing at her.
" Akira kun! That is a highly immoral act to even consider! It breaks multiple laws and-"
" Yeah yeah. It's only illegal if you get caught. Ofcourse, I won't do it though. I have my brother to break wallets. And robbery is too much effort honestly. " She swatted her hand dismissively.
" That's still..... "Midoriya smiled awkwardly.
" How would you commit robbery?" Shoto questioned wanting to know her methods for her confidence in not getting caught.
Everyone in the class immediately snapped their necks towards him.
" That's! " Momo lifted her palm to her mouth completely caught off guard by the question coming out of his mouth.
" Dude. What the hell! You're supporting her inner criminal!" Kaminari complained.
" Luckily Allmight and Aizawa sensei aren't in this bus to hear you two." Ojiro deadpanned.
" I just want to know the source of the confidence in her claims " Shoto exclaimed as everyone slowly turned to her, getting curious.
" Class! We should not be discussing how to commit crimes in a hero academy! " Iida chopped his hands in the air yelling at their irresponsiblity.
" But we're not in the academy yet! Come on Akira! Tell us!" Denki exclaimed, too intrigued to bother with rules.
" Iida kun, Iida kun! How would you know how to stop a crime if you don't know how the villains commit the crimes!!" Mina joined the fray as she put stop to Iida's heroic rules.
" That is....." Iida still tried to proest but was cut off by the rest of the class.
" Girl seriously though. How would you do it?" Jiro asked again.
Even Bakugo looked curious and showed his intrest through glares.
