The buses had arrived at the mock-cities, and the attendees were meeting up in small groups and discussing the test.
Kosuke did some stretches as he stepped off of the bus and took a good look at the urban area in front of him. He grinned and walked toward the group of gathering attendees.
"OKAYY, START!"
President Mic's voice broke the chatter of the group, and some students looked confused.
"What are you all standing there for? In a real battle you won't have any time to prepare! Now go!"
Kosuke wasted no time in dashing forward and making his way to an empty intersection. He closed his eyes for a brief second, and when he opened them, his appearance had changed. He now had a pair of fluffy blond cat ears resting atop his sandy-blond hair, and a similarly colored tail mysteriously protruding from his joggers.
Now, with the new burst of energy, he started dashing around the streets looking for villains before he came upon a mid-sized robot with one wheel. He dodged to his left when the robot sent it's arm flying to the ground. Taking this opportunity, he launched his fist toward the bot's core, sending it backward before he leaped forward and slashed the tire with his badass claws.
The robot attempted to move backward but ended up collapsing.
Kosuke started to move toward a new street before his heightened senses pick up a whirring noise to his left. His instincts explode and he jumps backward just in time to see a large mechanical fist swing past his face
'There's no way thats allowed right?! That thing could have seriously messed me up!' He thinks as he leaps over another swing.
This robot had two large wheels just under its wide body and two hexagonal cases on it's shoulders.
Kosuke decided he needs to get serious with this one. He channels some of his strength into one movement and grabs the robots left arm before using his boost to throw the whole thing over his shoulder. The robot hit the asphalt with a series of clangs and rattles.
He continued to roam the streets and took out a couple other bots before making his way to the center of the mock city.
'Holy shit' He thought as he looked at the chaos-ridden street. The entire street was littered with robotic remains and a handful of attendees finishing off robots of various point values.
A huge screech and metal whirring interrupts his thoughts, as everyone turns to see a massive, dark green robot looming over the mock city. Rubble falls and building break as the behemoth emerges from behind a tall building.
Kosuke's eyes light up at the sight of it and he begins to imagine the point value of the massive faux villain.
'This bitch has got to be worth at least 50 points!' He thought to himself as he dashes out of the street and makes his way closer to the faux villain.
'I'd expect nothing less from U.A.' he thinks looking up at it. 'But will I have enough strength left to destroy that thing?'
Just then, a small whimper breaks his concentration and he turns to see a brown-haired girl trapped under a large piece of rubble.
'Shit, looks like someone got caught up in the destruction of that thing.' Before he could move to help the girl, a freckled boy with curly green hair runs out from the crowd of retreating students and starts tugging on the object, trying to move it. After a few seconds of unsuccessful pushing and pulling, the boy backs off.
'What is he doing? Getting help from another student?'
Just then, the boy ran back to the large piece of rubble and slammed his hands onto the bottom of the object. As if by some miracle, the rubble was launched far into the air, allowing the boy to help the girl up. The boy however, looked to be in incredible pain when doing so, and his arms were now a bright red.
Kosuke looked at the green-haired boy with curiosity. 'Some super strength quirk? Probably even greater than mine.' he thought.
'What a terrible drawback though.'
Kosuke shook himself out of his state and began advancing on the faux villain again. He spotted two tall buildings in the path of the giant.
'Perfect' he thought as he made a beeline to the alley between the two brick buildings.
He made his way into the alley and concentrated on bringing out certain levels of power. He got into a stance, before dashing forward and jumping toward the wall of the nearest building.
Anyone else would think he would just climb, but Kosuke was a perfectionist. Who knows, maybe the U.A teachers give style points?
He stuffed his foot into the mortar of the bricks and kicked off of the wall. He landed himself on the other wall, holding on by his fingertips on the spaces between the bricks.
He was quickly kicking off of each building, and before long he had made his way to the roof. One final kick off of the left building's crumbling mortar, and he was on the right building's roof.
'There it is' he thinks as the giant robot inches ever closer. He takes a deep breath and concentrates on tensing his muscles. He gathers all of his adrenaline and takes another deep breath before launching himself toward the robot. He rears his fist back and twists his entire body, before delivering a devastating punch to the robot's head. A loud crunch and the screeching of metal was heard as chunks of dark green sheet metal fly everywhere. The robot collapses and some small fires start to form.
Kosuke's ears and tail retract mid-fall as he plummets back to the ground below. He manages to land on the slope of some building's roof and tumbles to the ground clumsily. He flopped to the ground with a grin.
What could he say? He was proud of himself.
He may have been bruised up and exhausted on the pavement. But he didn't give a shit. Why?
Because he just beat a giant fucking robot to peices with a single punch.
I mean, duh.
A black haired student with circular elbow joints strides up to him with a huge grin on his face. "Dude that was awesome!" He says as he fist pumps. "The way you launched yourself toward that thing with a smile and then totally destroyed it all in one punch, That was straight out of some manga!"
As the kid continues talking to himself about Kosuke's total badessery, a new voice speaks up. "Um, are you all right?"
Kosuke turns over to see the person behind the voice. A familiar girl with a spiky pony tail wears a concerned expression as she leans over him. 'The girl from earlier' he recognizes her and smiles.
"Yeah, thanks" he replies before sitting up. He rubs the back of his neck before explaining. "I get really exhausted if I use my quirk like that too much at once"
The girl nods and is about to say more but is interrupted by President Mic's voice booming overhead.
"TIIMESS UP!"
A siren sounds throughout the mock city.
A short old lady begins walking up to the group and crowds of students make way after seeing her. "Good work everyone, good work." she spoke the words as if she's done it a thousand times before.
"Ah!" A blonde boy spoke up with a heavy French accent. "U.A. High's licensed school nurse: Recovery Girl."
She had her grey hair in a small bun, with some sort of pink helmet that wrapped around the back of her head with a purple visor covering her eyes. "Here have some gummies" she said as she handed a student some gummy bears. The student looked a little confused but accepted the gummies nonetheless.
Recovery Girl continued on, and stopped when she saw the injured green-haired boy. "Oh dear, you were injured this much by your own quirk?" The question was stated more than asked.
The green haired boy gave a sheepish grin and apologized to the old woman. "Oh well, it cant be helped." She spoke before puckering her lips and kissing the boy right on his injured arm.
Kosuke, who was still sitting down and panting, watched with part amazement and part curiosity as the boy's arm was slowly returning to normal. Recovery girl turned to him and started toward the group of three. "Are you hurt young man?" She questioned him before continuing. "That was quite a fall you took earlier."
One student seemed to recognize him and spoke up. "Oh yeah, you're the guy that took down that huge green villain in one hit! That was seriously awesome!"
By now all eyes were on Kosuke. "Holy shit." One student said. "That huge thing? With one hit?" The students looked at him in awe.
Kosuke spoke up to answer Recovery girl. "I'm okay, I just used up a lot of my quirk's power at once, so I'm exhausted."
Recovery girl nodded in Acknowledgement. 'To be able to take down the zero pointer and safely land from that height without harm, we have a good batch this year' she thought to herself before turning. "Is anybody else injured?" She asked the crowd.
A few students stepped up with minor scrapes or cuts which she healed before all the students were escorted back to the buses to be sent back to the school. Kosuke waved goodbye to the spiky-haired girl before starting toward his bus.
As Kosuke was boarding his bus, he caught sight of a familiar looking green-haired boy sitting in the back. He made his way over to the boy and sat next to him. "Yo." Kosuke greeted him with a toothy grin. "I saw what you did back there when you saved that girl from the rubble, that's an interesting quirk you got there."
The boy looked surprised for a moment before gaining a small blush and began fidgeting.
"I-it was nothing really." He said before speaking again. "I just did what any hero would have done." He looked down and frowned. "More importantly, I didn't score a single point. There's no way I got in."
Kosuke thought for a moment before speaking. "Then I'll give you some of my points." The boy's head jolted up and he stared wide-eyed at the sandy-haired boy smiling before him. "N-no of c-course not!" He stammered "I couldn't b-bother you like that. You earned those points fair and square, s-so you deserve them."
Kosuke frowned before replying. "But you're the one who saved that girl. If anyone deserves points it's you." The boy looked up as Kosuke continued. "Out of all the students there, the only one who stopped running to save that girl was you. You even hurt your own arm just because it was the right thing to do."
This boy couldn't believe what he was hearing. This total stranger was being so kind to him, even offering to give him his points. "W-why?" He spoke. "Why would you sacrifice your own score to help me get in?"
Kosuke just gave a shrug before replying. "Its easy to see that you want to be a hero really bad, and I think you deserve a chance."
"Besides..." He gave a toothy grin
"I destroyed that giant green robot so I have points to spare"
The boy looked at him with a thankful expression, then one of realization, then awe, before finally settling on confusion.
"Wait, wasn't that giant one the zero-pointer?" The boy said
Kosuke stopped smiling and looked at him.
...
"Eh?"
AN:
