Shizura was coming home after a very tiring day in middle school. Shion, a sentient robotic hand puppet that looks like a bunny, was asking the teenager some questions to test if the boy was actually listening to the words his teachers say.

"So what was the law that Akio sensei taught you today?" inquired Shion, to which Shizura answered:

"Lenz' law of electromagnetism states that when EMF is generated by a charge in magnetic flux, the polarity is such that it generates a current whose magnetic field is in the opposite direction of the charge it produces" while stroking Shion's ears. The hand puppet bowed their head and said:

"Okay, that's all I need to hear to know that you were listening."

"You gave up after one question? That's unlike you Shion, you usually try to ask every possible questions to prove that I'm not listening." stated Shizura.

Shion retaliated, "You literally said the law with the exact words that Akio sensei taught you. That's enough proof to know that you were actually listening."

"Point taken." said Shizura as they arrived home.

The young boy said 'I'm home' out loud to no one in particular and not expecting a response. Alice came down the stairs, along with Elza, which surprised Shizura as he thought that the two were away doing their daily routine of hero work.

"Welcome home, your sister and I have good news for you today." announced Alice with Elza muttering an 'I didn't agree to this' moments after. The youngest curiously asked with a blank face:

"Oh, what's the good news then?"

Alice answered with a wide grin, "We recommended you into U.A!" and Elza face-palmed herself while cursing under her breath.

A pregnant pause fell upon the siblings. Shizura stared back in confusion saying:

"Ehh?" prompting Alice to repeat her previous statement with pride now on in her face. The silver-haired student exclaimed while scratching his head in annoyance:

"I already told you that I don't want to become a hero! Why would you recommend me!?"

Elza replied lazily, "Because she wanted to make your life exciting. You're also the one who is making the hero costumes so it'll be nice for you to get to know some of the ones that requested for those. You've locked yourself in your room for majority of life. The only time you go out is-"

"Is when he goes to school or wanted another screwdriver to make more machines, We get it." interrupted Shion.

Elza glared at the bunny menacingly. Before Elza can reply back, her twin said:

"Oh I almost forgot. Shion, you're going to accompany Shizura into U.A. There's an exam for recommended students next week so get ready."

Shion nodded lazily and Shizura remarked:

"Okay, I'll just won't do anything during the exam." as he walked up the stairs. Both human and machine felt a very dark aura behind them and backed against the wall. Elza had her fist clenched and near her face.

"You little shit, we didn't waste time trying to get you in the school just for you to not try to do anything."

With this, Shizura frantically nodded his head.

"Y-Yes Elza, I-I won't do a-anything s-stupid."

Alice smiled with her hands on her sister's shoulders.

"Great, you can start training for the exam tomorrow."

The boy just sighed, nodded and went to his bedroom to research on the Examination.

One Day Before the Exam

Word got around Shizura's school about the silver-haired boy's recommendation to U.A. which shocked everyone -even the staff- due to his statements made from previous occasions about hating being a hero. Shizura was annoyed from all the unwanted attention he was getting from everyone. It got to the point where Shion had to intervene and threatened everyone that if they do not shut up, then they will be used for creating more machines.

Shizura was currently at home sparring with Elza again to look for ways on how to use his quirk. Elza swung a scythe down towards Shizura's small figure and the boy countered using iron sand to block the blade. The sand turned into the shape of a hand and gripped the scythe. Before Elza could react, she was swept off her feet and was surrounded by her brother's iron sand with no way out.

"Do you yield?" inquired Shizura.

The hero nodded and the sand retracted. Elza had a question in her mind that has been bothering her:

"Why do you only use the iron sand quirk? Shouldn't you use multiple quirks to catch your opponents off guard?" asked Elza.

Shizura only played with the sand and stated:

"And don't you think that's what they'll be expecting assuming they even know my quirk? It's better to make them think that my quirk is Iron Sand and surprise them after."

"Then why not use a more versatile quirk?" Elza further asked.

At this, Shizura stopped moving the magnetite-filled substance and his face got dark.

"Remember when I almost died?"

Before the older sister could say a word, her younger brother cut her off.

"No, not the one when I accidentally set of Nightmare Mode on all of my sentient machines because you were annoying the hell out of me. I meant the other time when both you and Alice forgot that I was with you at the mall."

"Y-Yes, y-you don't remember w-who saved you b-because you p-passed out."

The raven-haired stuttered out like she forgot the event before sitting down on the grass like a child waiting for their parents to tell them a bedtime story.

"Well I saw a glimpse of iron sand before passing out and guessed that that was the quirk used by my saviour. And that's basically it." Shizura said.

Elza looked with a dead panned expression and shrugged.

"Anyway, It's getting late so go sleep for the exam."
