## A Green Start

A door stood in front of her. Lilith was hesitant in opening said door, knowing what, or who, was being it. The role of a leader was not suited for her, far better for people with charisma or with strategic prowess. Lilith definitely did not possess the former. Her way of speech could assess that. And while her strategies weren't the worst, she had seen better. Far better.

No, her role was that of support. Level the playing field, attack from a range. Help the main combatants, follow the orders of the strategists. Help the victims. She knew her role, knew why it was her role, and was ok with it. It was the optimal path in Heroics.

And yet, she cannot escape the inevitable. Or, more precisely, required classes. And Leadership class was one of them. The idea made sense to her. She would be paired with a younger student of class CP. Lead them, teach them, help them grow. In turn, she would learn leadership. A mutually beneficial class. At least for most students. Lilith actually felt bad for whichever kid had to put up with her, though she did not show it.

She never did.

But here she was, ready to do her best in the class. Her hand grabs the doorknob, pushing forward to open the door. Inside was a general classroom, a CP student awaiting her arrival. Lilith walked inside, closing the door before taking a look at the younger students. She was a bit tense, worried. But also curious about who she was paired with. It was impossible to tell though.

Chitaki sat inside of the classroom with his teacher, thinking about his new friends. Everything had been great so far! Everyone thought he was cool, and he was able to impress everyone with his Quirk! Today was the day they'd meet their buddies, grown-up kids who would help them be smart and strong and control their Quirks! Chitaki was especially excited about mastering his Quirk. He'd be able to impress even more people! Just then, the door opened, and a girl a little taller than him stepped forward.

"Hey, why weren't you at the playdate? All of the classmates were supposed to come!" Chitaki said as she approached, assuming she was a classmate he hadn't met yet.

Lilith didn't know what playdate the kid was talking about, but she assumed it was something exclusive to the CP kids. Meeting your classmates before school starts, probably.

What she *did* know is that the kid mistook her for a CP student. It was only natural, given her unusually short height. That didn't stop her from being bothered by the comment though. "Lilith isn't a CP student, Lilith is a CAP student, says Lilith with slight annoyance." As usual, her face was blank as she stared at the kid.

Chitaki's face scrunched up a bit in confusion. "Huh?" If this girl wasn't his classmate then that meant...she was his buddy?! "Hmm....you don't look very *grown up*to me..." Chitaki said as he examined Lilith. "And why do you talk like that?"

"Looks can be deceiving, says Lilith as Lilith fails to remember who said that." This was her CP partner? "Why do *you* talk like that, says Lilith as Lilith redirects the question back."

"Talk like what?" Chitaki said with a smirk. "I talk in a super cool way that shows how cool I am!" He said, striking a pose for a few seconds.

Lilith simply stared at his pose for a few seconds, failing to understand what was cool about it. "Well Lilith talks like this because Lilith can't show emotions with Lilith's face, says Lilith, pointing at Lilith's blank face." It wasn't like her way of talking showed *all* the emotions she was feeling, but enough would be noticed. Her friends could read her like a book anyway, so it was enough for her.

"Everyone has their own way of talking, that's all there is to it, says Lilith with a shrug." Only after she finished her sentence did she actually shrug. "What is your name, anyway, asks Lilith."

"I'm Chitaki! Did you know I'm the only one with a Japanese name?" He introduced himself with a triumphant smile.

"Can you speak Japanese, asks Lilith as Lilith challenges Chitaki's knowledge." Her barrage of questions continued. She simply wanted to figure out what the kid needed to be worked on, what he knew, simple stuff. But he is still a kid, so Lilith wasn't expecting anything crazy.

Worst case scenario, she can just call up her friends for help. A fresh perspective could never hurt.

"Uh...I can count to ten..." Chitaki said a little uncertainly. He opened his mouth and counted all the way from one to ten in Japanese. "Ta-da! Whatcha think of that?" He cheered happily.

"Not bad, says Lilith with a nod." She knew the kid probably had to focus on English and French first, but it never hurt to have a few extra languages under one's belt. Japanese isn't really common in France, but who knows where the kid would end up in several years?

"So..what are you gonna teach me? Aren't you supposed to be my mentor or something?" Chitaki questioned, an impatient expression beginning to form on his face.

Ah yes, the activity she really wanted to avoid. Being a mentor. "Well for starters, what is your goal? What do you want to be when you grow up, said Lilith with a bit of curiosity." Despite the school having a section for Heroics, it was limited to the higher grades. The...*Ecole Primaire,* Lilith believe they were called, basically was a standard school with a side of quirk control. Meaning not all the students have the goal of becoming a Hero.

Granted, it's rare finding a kid who *doesn't* want to be a Hero. Their charisma and power are alluring for children who barely know how the world works.

"Uh, a hero, obviously!" Chitaki said, his tone suggesting slight exasperation. "It's only the coolest thing someone can do!"
