I’ll say now, I’m downsizing Class 1-A to 15. I’m going to focus on the core cast and not include characters like Mineta. Sorry.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX88Eq8jil9
It’s easier to write and allows for better focus.
Spring had come, the weather was turning nicer, and the Sakura trees were blooming in full. Inko hugged the stuffing out of Izuku and Kiri at the door while Tatsumaki was standing behind her.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbPqvVZBHH
Inko: "I'm so proud of you two!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZPVcGeorW
She was holding back tears.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rT9l69gY6
Inko: "So, so proud."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjavDjyzI3
Tatsumaki: “Alright, Mom, Izu is starting to turn blue.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2FMx5eC0b
Inko: “Oh! Sorry, honey.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYoUZScaB6
Izuku: “I-It’s okay, Mom.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXeq2Ot4da
Kiri pats Izuku on the back to get the air back into his lungs.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l3VOZIsqs
Inko: “I wish Fubuki was here to see you off.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu0TarX55T
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I don’t know what’s with her these days. Always some business to take care of.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6sSFnwS4l
Izuku: “Go easy on her, Tatsu; things happen.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuMbdlcYKT
Tatsumaki: “Yeah, but you getting into UA happens only once.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fjGud22m4
Tatsumaki sighs and looks off into the distance. She is so tempted to drag her little sister here and force out some answers. She’s been acting weird ever since Izuku got his acceptance letter.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC00I6Zhp3X
Tatsumaki: ‘Even her psychic energy is off. What is happening, Fubu?’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Dj4Gubcf2
Izuku: “Well, we’re off! Love you, Mom, Tatsu!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pzGmzZYAZ
Kiri: “Later, Onee-chan, Okaa-san.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g0bgHeM4g
Tatsumaki and Inko wave them goodbye before the two new students disappear in a flash of green.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoypqlxW0pF
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpULtat3ztz
Kiri: “Big.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl6wtXMJwM
Izuku: “Yeah, it might take us a while to find our class.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNp1jR2T9ii
After an embarrassing amount of searching, the two finally found their class.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVT6aVlDUi
The class of 1-A.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG3aI17Ivp
Izuku: “We finally made it! Let’s go!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71mnMf1JW4
Kiri: “Nh!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37JFVQTIzD
He opened the door and was immediately beset by noise. The two stare at the surprising but familiar faces.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy60klo1me8
Ida: "Remove your feet from the desk immediately! Such an act disgraces all the wonderful craftsmen who made our furniture and the upperclassmen who have come before us!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomc3JVLXcJ
Kiri: “Glasses and bomber.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiRMppHucV
Izuku: “Of course both of them are here.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDS0u51PDz
After getting the third degree from Glasses in the exams, he had felt as if they wouldn’t get along in the slightest.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1May9oDiIM
Bakugo: "Huh? What do I care about any of that? What school are you from, you extra?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRYW6nW4UT
Ida: “M-my name is Tenya Ida. I hail from Somei Academy!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i7NI7ngi1
Bakugo: "Somei? So, you're a damn elite, huh? I'll have fun crushing you."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOBm73aBgc
Ida: “Cr-crushing? You barbarian! Do you truly wish to become a hero?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr57UlrhfO
Iida had a little dark-blue shadow on his forehead. He then caught sight of Izuku and Kiri and hurried over to them.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11f1x6IA0c
Ida "We meet again! I'm-"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqai27wMdpG
Izuku: “Tenya Iida from Somei. I heard."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wmXnjjiHT
Kiri: “I’ll still call you… Glasses.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVezMZ0Vh62
Ida coughed and straightened out before continuing.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfVmvYYR9D
Ida: "Midoriya, before the exam began, I completely misjudged you. I wish to offer my sincerest apologies for my words and actions."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwVcmxx1RO
He gave Izuku a short bow.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErC9PCZrEb
Izuku was now slightly happy since Iida seemed to have turned over a new leaf. While he wouldn't quite forget the treatment from the exam, if Iida was willing to try to make amends, it can be water under the bridge.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGROdCa6Pl
Izuku: "Izuku Midoriya. Pleased to meet you, Iida. And this here is Kiri Tae."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyVK144nJQ
Kiri: “Hello.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt5Uegh3o6
Ida: “Ah yes, you were the other one who figured out the true nature of the exam.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1i7sALo7F
Kiri: “Um?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzC04lS2vf
Izuku: “What do you mean?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rWyGuTqve
Ida: “The hero points.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVcY1F3sJM
Izuku: “We didn’t know about it. We actually thought we failed.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmr1LvCGla
Ida: “Then why-”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFyO1a8jx0
Izuku: “Because Uraraka was in trouble.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKrYt9pG7E
Kiri: “Because Izuku was in trouble.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2vbTjscTk
Uraraka: “And you two were so awesome when you did it.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9A4wNDSvb
Momo: “It was truly heroic; I was moved to help as well.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ro0ieu2SB
Jiro: “And since Momo was going to help, I had to help too.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zJoyYDkv8
Izuku and Kiri to see the other Uraraka along with the two other girls who helped them.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQAXOL0Lbx
Uraraka: “You and Jiro saved me! Thank you so much! And you all got in as well! I was so happy when Present Mic told me!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOrQxJ88VA
Momo: “I have to admit, I couldn’t sleep much until the letter came.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLiyEosJEm
Jiro: “Lucky for me, I didn’t attack the big robot. So I slept like a baby.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBnwxcBWVN
Momo: “Lucky.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYfmoj1QtT
The group, minus Kiri, shared a warm laugh. Ida clenched his teeth a little at the sight.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52yZT9Xa1G
Ida: ‘They’re… so much better than me. There aren’t any words for it.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvhM0PNbNz
Izuku: “I have to thank you all too. Yaoyorozu, thanks for helping me. Kyoka, thank you for helping Uraraka out of the rumble. And thank you, Uraraka, for speaking on our behalf.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7yzYGHk0E
Jiro: “No problem. I couldn’t just leave her like that.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsdcduwbee
Momo: “It was my pleasure.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RAZIukbFM
Uraraka: “Haha, it was the least I could do.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzkNsKZKHm
Over in his chair, Katsuki was glaring at the group.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJagqHg9sk
Bakugo: ‘That means two kids came from our middle school.'
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnTMczVL4R
Little crackles flew from his fists as he clenched them incredibly hard.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJJpScZmFo
Bakugo: ‘But that means nothing next to Deku! What happened to him? I knew his Quirk was strong when it finally showed up… but he BEAT ME in the exams. ME! And where did he get a girlfriend of all things?!’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8NhGnS1lw
It was only the fact that Bakugo had more than doubled Izuku's villain and, therefore, combat score that kept him from literally exploding.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUormkHoMiA
Uraraka: “I wonder if today’s the ceremony. Or is it guidance counselor stuff today? Oh, and the teacher, what will they be like? I’m so anxious, like wow!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMHUA5xvwU
"If you're here to socialize, then go home!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32GmWoksJ8
They each froze and turned to look outside the classroom. On the floor was a yellow caterpillar!
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovCXqiN65P
Jiro: “What the-”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrC7GUim4X
Kiri: “Large caterpillar.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdRVrzQolT
The group was completely taken aback by the strange sight. A friendly quirk beast like the principal, perhaps?
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0NnHzFXYB
No.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQ7R6a6zj8
A second glance later and they realized it was a sleeping bag, and the face staring at them looked decidedly unamused.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqTk0nQ4Fj
"This is the Hero Course."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ydq21ijbu
A hand snaked out from inside the bag with a pouch, which the long-haired man squeezed empty in a single suck. The group backed up and watched him sit up and toss off the sleeping bag.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyscT4waMEe
"You mistook me for a caterpillar, and it took you all more than ten seconds to settle down. Time is precious. You kids are lacking common sense, aren’t you?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0CwMNnzyg
He strode inside while everyone wondered who exactly this was. Even Izuku didn't recognize him.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz22of5h2Nb
Aizawa: "I'm your homeroom teacher, Shōta Aizawa. Pleased to meet you."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrKnjxKf2r
He sounded everything but pleased. He reached into his sleeping bag and pulled out a dark blue uniform with red and white stripes.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7K7x26BLTO
Aizawa: "It’s a bit sudden, but you all need to put these on and head to the field."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeS9snTJN67
Everyone in the class had varying degrees of confusion written on their faces as the man walked right back out.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gT4VApAye
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYeqz2roOl
"A Quirk Assessment Test?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNL0Nd9fBs
Nearly the entire class repeated Aizawa's words in confusion.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq3awTFxDL
Uraraka: "But what about the entrance ceremony or the guidance sessions?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7M0vzymJBn
Aizawa: "A waste of time if you want to become heroes. You have very little time here at UA to learn what you need. Our school prides itself on its 'freestyle' system of education, and that applies to the teachers as well."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWz1zLibkC
Aizawa ignores their confused looks and leads them to the designated area.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7oYbqMKCv
Aizawa: "The softball throw, the fifty-meter dash, consecutive side-steps, endurance running, grip strength, the standing long-jump, seated-toe-touches, and sit-ups. You all did these in middle school but were never allowed to use your Quirks. It isn't rational, but the Department of Education loves dragging their feet about changing things and creating new standards."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MpWDcSUZd
He glanced towards the group, lingering on Kiri before deciding on his target.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZCXnFKAbf
Aizawa: "Bakugo, step forward. What was your record with the softball throw in middle school?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRNhIPIISs
Bakugo: "Ninety-five meters."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0sTvnnryj
The past year, roughly, had been hell on him. He pushed himself harder than ever before after Deku had shown him up in school.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsNfygvMTv
Aizawa tossed him a ball with a strange little gizmo wrapped tightly to it.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ063LX9Rcsb
Aizawa: "Let's see what you can do. Go all out and use your Quirk. You're not allowed to step from that circle. Give it all you got."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYMvCpFo7j
Bakugo: "Awesome. I think I'm going to like this class."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolMldJcGiT
Katsuki was starting to smirk as he stretched his arms. He wound up before chucking the ball with a roar.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs7amV7dGJ
Bakugo: "DIE!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4vkDj3Kz0
A massive explosion accompanied it, and it flew nearly out of sight with smoke rings from the explosion accompanying it.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wtIKSmqVt
‘Die?'
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyjlrEXjIQ
The class collectively thought, utterly puzzled.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeSYFEJsbB
It landed almost a kilometer away, and Aizawa showed them his reader. 987.3 meters.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjlsIbKmhE
Aizawa: "It's important for us to know your limits. That's the first step in figuring out just what kind of heroes you'll be."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcDDN3DMhO
The class erupted into various reactions.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8W1CH6eEN
"Wahooo! This is awesome!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiliuTJ6AFa
A literally pink girl with horns and golden eyes in black sclera yelled out.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUE6SS6hWV
"We get to use our quirks right off the bat!? Nice!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04llYHqnCi
One of the boys, the one with red spiky hair, says out loud.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5dBUmZwR1
Jiro: "Almost a kilometer? Seriously?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ2V8nWdLQ
The pink girl yelled again.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGE1sykZlN
"This is going to be so much fun!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0saEgBY06V
Aizawa: “Fun, you say?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGVRCSwwP3
All of a sudden, a feeling of dread enveloped them. Aizawa was staring at them. His expression hadn't really changed, but there was something about him that made it seem like a bucket of ice had been dropped into their gym uniforms.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPvXlYfvmS
Aizawa: "You've only got three years here, and you're thinking about fun? Alright then. If you're just here to have fun, then I'm going to make a new rule. The person who scores the lowest in these exams will be judged as hopeless and will be on a one-way train back home before the day is over."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrght0Eplwp
Shivers ran through everyone’s back; this is no laughing matter. Aizawa brushed his bangs back and had a strange smile on his face, his eyes wide and intense. He looked every bit a madman.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvlXl0vyGz
Aizawa: "Your fates are in our hands. Welcome to the Hero Course."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5sT6sA4ln
Uraraka: "What! But it's the first day, and we're risking expulsion?! That's not fair!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRUsUCuaJu
Aizawa: "Natural disasters… rampaging villains… freak accidents… The world isn't fair, Ochaco Uraraka. Calamity is always just around the corner, and Heroes are the ones who correct that unfairness."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQ6Z0skZ0p
Kiri couldn’t help but slightly nod her head. Unlike everyone else here, she knows just how brutal the outside world can be. This is only fair.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRFqVZZEUA
Aizawa grins again.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JEfgoXIGr
Aizawa: "If you were planning on hanging out for the next three years, you're in for a rude awakening, kids. UA will do its best to put you through one hardship after another, because villains and disasters don't discriminate. The only way we can ensure you survive to be splendid heroes is by ensuring you are the strongest, so bring it on. That's PLUS ULTRA."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9yQdIr9JE
Ida: "Trial by fire, huh?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMnvHu8Slx
Izuku: "We fought and bled to get here, sensei! We're not going home without a fight!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmxlGPA3Mk
The rest of the class was looking determined, bolstered by his words. Kiri smiles at her big brother; he really is coming into his own.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCV3gG6Mf9
Aizawa: "Good to hear. The demonstration is over, so let's get it on. First up is the fifty-meter dash."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFM9IWCHC0
He turned and led them over to the tracks.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ1kq0E86o
Aizawa: ‘They dispelled the aura of fear I created. Now they're all determined to pass. These kids are good.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvljLk4pEPO
The dashes were done in groups of two, one per lane. Aizawa called up the first two competitors.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61cgroeIoX
Aizawa: "Mina Ashido and Kiri Tae, step up."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu61VZ0WYFJ
The two stepped up to the speed lanes.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVC0os3gHZ5
Mina: “I’m not going to lose!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDr9DePzCj
Kiri looked back at Izuku, who gave her two thumbs up and a smile. She’s almost thankful for her smaller form. She can’t use her full power and upstage everyone, risking alienating her and her onii-chan.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7rwFsTY44
But more than that, this smaller form means she doesn’t have to hold back. Something she never quite got the hang of. Her best in this form shouldn’t be too far removed from the rest of the kids.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpj0Gx16p6
Everything should be fine.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9sMEaqNNo
She turns back around and gets into a running position alongside Mina.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOgkC7pLiK
The robot the school was using to record results fired off the starting gun, and they were off.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT15evpcT22
Mina was basically skating on the track with a really slick acid. It enabled her to go pretty quick, but not as fast as Kiri, who was running normally.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzApIHAG2LG
Mina: 4.92 seconds
Kiri: 2.80 seconds
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96eAGLkjlB
Mina: “Man! And she didn’t even break a sweat. Did she even use her quirk?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLOSs2Ihxx
Kiri went back to Izuku and gave him her best smile.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOus0inpEKI
Izuku: “W-Way to go, Kiri. Your physical enchantment quirk is really amazing.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8Q6zxRoRw
Thankfully, that got everyone to turn back to the tests. Physical enchantment quirk? Checks out.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHajrRCreJ
The next group was Katsuki Bakugo and Tsuyu Asui. Katsuki used his explosive Quirk basically like an afterburner. How he didn't just fall over was a mystery.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVeY6qiRxu
He finished the race in 3.13 seconds, with Tsuyu displaying some incredible leaping ability and finishing in 5.58 seconds.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYfKHx46JY
Bakugo looked back at Tae and Deku before clenching his fist.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaF55OToJF
Bakugo: ‘I have to do better.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0oTanHLw0
Next up was Jiro and Iida. Iida pulled up his pant legs, revealing a thicker-than-normal set of calves, which quickly grew six pipes on each leg. He also rolled up his sleeves, and two larger pipes grew on his elbows.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoZ64bmJQA
Jiro knew she wasn’t winning this but still put up a decent fight.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiGZjOUnac
Ida: 2.34 seconds
Jiro: 7.50 seconds
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0lnhrI26g
Izuku: "Awesome job, Ida!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFrcaaVduV
Izuku hesitantly offered the boy a high-five, which Iida happily returned.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkuwBHS5UA
Ida "Thank you, Midoriya. I'm quite eager to see how you'll do."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJKj0U9PTe
Iida replied while sipping from his bottle, but his eyes were on Kiri. Her speed was unreal and is comparable to his. But unlike his, she didn’t need to recharge.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EgnHjRmOD
Ida: ‘She really is something.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTZQyEa00z
Next was Kaminari and Tokoyami. This was more of a physical test than a quirk test for them. Their quirks just weren’t suited for it. And because of that, their times were around average.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5q1562IKy
Kaminari: 6.26 seconds
Tokoyami: 6.60 seconds
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pZz72YuVq
Next up was Eijirō Kirishima, the red-haired, boisterous fourth-place competitor in the Entrance Exam who only missed taking home the bronze by a few points. He has a highly fit body and so has the potential to win against some of the students here. But he’s against Izuku.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaSydA1mHT
The little phoenix thought about teleporting but decided against it.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf7TzQxN9e
Izuku: ‘That would be unfair and not a true test of my speed.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZKaIbMv8u
So instead, Izuku floated up and prepared for takeoff.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIT2A0KXxq
Needless to say, the flyer won.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOAIK0BDhL
Izuku: 3.10 seconds
Kirishima: 4.30 seconds
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF2dsLqJGW
Bakugo: ‘He beat me, again!’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVq8e0TTSpM
It took all Bakugo had to stop himself from doing something stupid. It won’t solve anything, and he knows he’ll reclaim his spot at the top soon enough.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjCGSQyxVy
Next was Hanta Sero and Mezo Shoji at the starting line. Despite Mezo’s athleticism, Sero’s Tape quirk, allowing him to reel himself forward, gave him the win.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsdmMdzO4L
Sero: 4.52 seconds
Shoji: 5.67 seconds
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7Az8He6TR
The last race had everyone a bit excited. Due to the odd number, this was a three-way between Momo, Uraraka, and Shōto Todoroki. The latter of whom got in due to recommendation.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3jg0Zj36g
Something Momo could have done as well but decided to do it the proper way. To prove she could do it without the recommendation.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpIqZwh8Fd
But don’t let that fool you; she is worth every inch of that recommendation. Despite the stiff competition, Momo’s creativity won her the day.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA12R9vRo4O
But at the cost of some of the boys’ noses to bleed. Momo unzipped her top, shrugging it off to reveal a very mature physique. Her black bra started glowing a rainbow of colors, and when it cleared, she instead was wearing bandages that were tightly wrapping her chest. Her shoes also glowed and turned into perfectly fitted skates. Finally, a small glow from each hand had two small tubes grow from her skin.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUL8rS5eqH
The gun sounded, and the two top students were off, leaving poor Uraraka behind. Shoto used his ice to skate across the field, but that only helped Momo.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZLxM8IYsd
Using her current momentum, she unveiled the two tubes from before. It turns out they were rocket boosters! The result?
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNfD7gYdz5
She left a trail of smoke behind her and sped far past the finish line before the fuel ran out.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9RAyKxyTM
Jiro: “Crazy.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSt4VosNQU
Mina: “Amazing!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd7x5eLIzL
When Momo came back, she had a bit of a sheepish look on her face.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNANWETi5l
Momo: “Sorry everyone. I used a bit too much.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerbDtli7NU
Aizawa: “Perhaps, but you also took first place.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4YkFh6RM1
Shoto: 2.39 seconds
Uraraka: 5.80 seconds
Momo: 2.22 seconds
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe8fd5jDQD
Momo smiled proudly while Iida clenched a trembling fist before him.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Up99lHX5A
Iida "Second in my own event. How shameful!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAZYMCE566
Izuku: “Way to go, Yaoyorozu-san!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbR6K3LaIAX
Kiri: “Nh.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0hCksZPIy
Momo: “Thank you. I didn’t actually expect to get first place, though.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp6VSOKZRs
The first set of exams was over, and so the group headed to the next locale, the gym. Along the way, Izuku asked Momo a question.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6ejBRt0QL
Izuku: "Yaoyorozu-san. May I ask about your quirk? I have to say again, you were amazing back there!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMb1ruUkzU
She smiled brightly at him.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBzfYAovMx
Momo: "Thank you Midoriya-san, though I must say the same. I'm quite curious about your own quirk as well. My quirk is named Creation. Using my body's fat cells as a building block, I can create any non-living thing as long as I know and understand its molecular structure."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86Pfhz9dWY
Izuku: "Holy! You must be a genius, Yaoyorozu-san! That must have been a difficult compound to memorize!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MBw10GyKi
She grew slightly pink at the acknowledgment of her immense efforts.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkssBM9MsiZ
Momo: "Thank you, Midoriya-san. Additionally, as long as it doesn't stop touching some part of my body, I can further alter anything I create. That was why I was able to change my bra into those chest-bindings but not the U.A. track suit. It does take a bit longer to do so and requires more concentration, despite the benefits. The second I let go of them or they stop touching my skin, whatever I create becomes a permanent object."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYQ8ADIEeW
Izuku: “Hmm, can you bring your creations back into your body when you don't need them anymore? That way you regain some of your stores?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB4XCJoJtp
Momo blinked, putting a finger to her lip and biting it lightly. She didn't even notice Izuku turn pink at the cute action.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVvhAnj8eT
Momo: "You know, I've never actually tried. I will do so promptly! Thank you for the idea, Midoriya-san."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLlMWyo8w6
She gave him a warm smile, and he turned red, starting to stammer. She giggled in response, finding it a bit endearing. However, this little interaction made a certain someone feel a bit… strange.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4lHs4sl3Q
Kiri began tugging on Izuku’s shirt while staring at him.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50AxGf4Xpp
Izuku: “Huh? What is it, Kiri?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iHo2tadK1
Momo noticed right away and giggled.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVShPgHA1OX
Momo: “I think your girlfriend might be a bit jealous. Forgive me, Kiri, if I overstepped.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVX6haFoZo
Izuku: “W-W-Wait, Kiri isn’t my girlfriend; she’s-”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1Lrx81fB0
Kiri: “I’m not?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh67JR3Hx5
Izuku turned to her and could see the sudden sadness in her eyes. Then he felt the stares. It was at this moment he knew, he fucked up.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZHZQBqBMl
Kaminari: “Dude, not cool.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4okKK4xZ7
Kirishima: “Not manly at all.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXSVUx2fW8
Momo: “You shouldn’t play with a girl’s feelings, Midoriya-san.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQZhY91VcU
And just like that, Momo’s smile turned upside down.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N3hjNQ0X6
Izuku: “N-No wait… I… she… we… never mind.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMv7n15i8S
Deciding not to dig the hole any deeper, he kept his mouth shut.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMBrzoMKGu
Izuku: ‘I have to clear this misunderstanding up and soon.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjU7Z1MhWT
But that soon won’t be now, since the next tests are about to begin.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRG8mbpZ63
Grip tests.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ8fueadGQ
Not much of note happened here, since most of the students got decent scores at best and awful scores at worst. The standout, again, was Momo. She completely blew everyone away by creating a functioning JAWS OF LIFE and getting an error reading. It took her a few minutes of reading from a large book she carried with her and quite a bit of concentration before she was ready to create it.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53yNwLJ170
Once she did, it took her a few seconds at best and worked perfectly.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscDsnRWfZU
As for Bakugo and Kiri, they broke their measurement devices. Leaving their score for this test, blank. But considering Kiri broke it instead of blowing it up, it was clear she was the strongest one here.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rtpDUooKP
Kaminari: “Dude, for your sake, I wouldn’t make that girl mad or jealous.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBufHWE1AFS
Izuku could only slap his forehead at the misunderstanding.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQE2EasC30
The next test was a fun one: the standing long jump.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0tJl5fV3d
At this point the class had done away with alphabetical order and were merely taking turns and trying their best. A clear chasm was forming between the top and bottom of the class. It was clear that some of them didn't have suitable Quirks for these types of situations. Sadly, Jiro had ranked last in every single test so far.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UzRhT8L1v
Momo tried to cheer her up, but it was looking bleak. The threat of expulsion was hanging heavy on everyone, but mostly her.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI9uqx9Qgv
The next test was the softball pitch, which Katsuki threw a fit over not being able to try again on, as he felt he still could have done better.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaDtvJv8xm
The standout this time was Uraraka, who got infinity due to her quirk, Zero Gravity.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXpBgQ0a8i
Kaminari: "She got infinity! How can anyone else get first place now? She automatically wins everything with a score like that, right?"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUnzlfmFZu
Aizawa: "No. When calculations are done, I'll just give her a meter more than Yaoyorozu."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuFwdCYfFX
Yeah, Momo shot her ball out of a cannon. If not for Uraraka, she would have topped the charts, again.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZCCUDJV62
The day finished quickly after that. The last test was a marathon run, which Kiri crushed, despite Momo using a bike and Ida being a living engine. She just never got tired.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJMBlenDmW
The rest of the tests only confirmed what they already had established: the pecking order.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuCD02a2Vr
Aizawa: “It would be a waste of time to explain how everything was calculated since it was only your performances recorded. Let's just get to the final rankings."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9gP8NXXcZ
Aizawa clicked a button on his device, and a holographic screen popped up.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKZuSznZna
The top 5 were obvious.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1NxI22XOe
1. Momo Yaoyorozu
2. Kiri Tae
3. Izuku Midoriya
4. Shoto Todoroki
5. Katsuki Bakugo
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAkGchz3Z1
Bakugo: 'Fifth? FUCKING, FIFTH?! Forget first place; I didn't even get second?! FUCKING, DEKU, BEAT ME!?'
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrghwvmw4CU
The explosive teen was boiling mad, and the only reason he didn't let off some steam was that he was sure Aizawa would punish him for it.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4Ox9AEJtv
The rest of the results spoke for themselves.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz9Q7LSZ13
6. Tenya Ida
7. Fumikage Tokoyami
8. Mezo Shoji
9. Eijirō Kirishima
10. Ochaco Uraraka
11. Mina Ashido
12. Tsuyu Asui
13. Denki Kaminari
14. Hanta Sero
15. Kyoka Jiro
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4ufw6totK
Yep, dead last.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHOocncjSt
Jiro: “No… ”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4O3agHEXc
Momo: “Kyoka… ”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsfKoIHanu
Aizawa: “Oh, by the way, I was lying about expelling someone."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HRAM3xn0w
…
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpBNbIXNYc
…
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZF9HEsDJz
HUH!!?
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefRwIXcWtB
Everyone was floored by the admission.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoYYzip5sG
Aizawa: “It was just a rational deception to get you to perform your best!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn4cIzGFYp
"WHHHHHHAAAAAAAAATTTTTT?!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4kGy8soDK
Jiro: "Yes!"
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOIa5ISGdv
Momo breathed a sigh of relief. She was pretty sure it was a ruse but didn’t want to get her best friend’s hopes up in case she was wrong.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzIT6LIYoR
Momo: ‘Thank goodness I was right.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxC3H1dyo1
But not everyone was celebrating; no, one person saw through the teacher.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4uJSSlsLI
Kiri: “Lair.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FLdkzJGl6
Silence, a cold silence overtook the area.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxURjZlGIE
Aizawa: “Come again?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtgX6JPkrN
Kiri: “We… are going to be heroes. It’s a dangerous job with no…second chances. UA is suppose… to prepare us for that. So… ”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4poZxMCkG
Her usually blank expression hardened for a split second, but it was enough to make Aizawa’s hair stand on end.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fIBwZJRxu
Kiri: “Don’t. Coddle. Us. We deserve the truth.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBKNNdKgOa
Izuku: “Kiri, what are you-”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUIK1bi1Rq
Aizawa: “Haha, fine. Have it your way.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2rluZuWpE
He opened his eyes and rooted Jiro to the ground, paralyzed with fear.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSr5g71bQ4
Jiro: “Ugh.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLSKwsfb9E
Momo: “Kyoka!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7w06G9Viq9
Aizawa: "I was NOT lying about someone being expelled. In my time here, I've expelled a hundred and fifty-four students. Last semester I expelled my entire class in just under two weeks."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3X0UIgmCR
Momo's eyes went wide, but she didn’t take a step back. Instead, she grabbed Jiro’s hand, hoping for the best. That maybe, this is just a warning.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBThQvMW5ku
Aizawa: "Understand this: the only reason you are not going home today is that I see a meager amount of potential in you. Yes, you weren’t suited for these tests. You may think it’s unfair, but life rarely is. So, if I thought you had no prospects at all, I would have cut you loose immediately. There is nothing crueler than letting someone chase around a half-baked dream."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHiQCEAWni
The entire class was shivering under his words, which doubled when he addressed them all.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3szTKltwP
Aizawa: "And that goes for each and every one of you. If I feel you're slacking off and not being serious about your position here, I won't hesitate to kick you out."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWyA9h1m01
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JO9Pbee1F
He turned back to Jiro.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5vsgyKDsG
Aizawa: "You need to work harder on your fitness. Your quirk will mean nothing if you’re caught by a villain or expect a civilian to do half the work when saving them."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xPT7utkCz
Jiro’s mind returns back to when she tried to save Uraraka. She did not have the strength to save her alone and needed the one in danger to pitch in. If the others weren’t there, what would she have done?
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfHwvyOyBq
Jiro: “I… understand.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmstbqzbhxX
Aizawa didn’t respond and instead turned back to everyone else.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWhIRv4IN1
Aizawa: “Any questions?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiiw1ejJ99
“N-no sensei!”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBdYcMme1I
The droning from his students sounded at him.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ159YXFcdUU
Aizawa: "Good. Have a good day and be prepared for tomorrow. If you thought today was hard, you won't be ready in the slightest for tomorrow's trials."
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQKzzIGw0y
He whirled around and walked away without a look back.
Several people had lost feeling in their legs and slumped to the floor, hearts racing and adrenaline pumping. Most affected, of course, was Jiro.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7Qj4HxeZO
Momo: “Kyoka, are you alright?”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNunIVOkHiS
Jiro: “Y-Yeah, just… give me a second to collect myself.”
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ669LHYK9L
Momo helped her best friend regain her footing. Izuku looked on with worry, wanting to help, to comfort them in some way. But it wasn’t his place right now.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JtWkrn22C
Izuku knew Kiri was right to do what she did. She, more than almost anyone, knows how dangerous the hero world can be.
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQwsBxfDRt
Izuku: ‘Still… I can’t help but feel sorry for Jiro. I can only hope this spurs her on to improve even more.’
134Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY5ioKFrWN
Except for a few who weren't affected by the speech and left quickly, it was a much subdued group that finally made it back to 1-A.
