Minor swearing in this chapter.
Chapter 4
Nyx awoke in her bed the next morning to her alarm going off and jumped up to shut it off, going down the hall to get a shower. Within an hour she was clean, dressed, and heading downstairs to eat breakfast with her mother in the dining room. Her emerald green eyes smiled into her mothers matching eyes as they sat at the table together and waited for the sausages to get done in the frying pan while her mother initiated conversation with her. "I am so proud of you Nyxlynn, are you really sure you are ready to face him again? You know he will seek you out after the exams.."
Nyx sighed inwardly, knowing her mother was undoubedly right but smiled for her sake. "I will be fine mom, I have Allmight as my mentor and I've already made a new friend." Lillian smiled at her daughter happily. "Izuku Midoryia, he's a nice kid. I ran into him and his mother at the grocery store the other night, poor kid looked exuasted." Nyx giggled and nodded. "Yea, he likes to push himself way harder than Allmight would prefer..he's asked us both to ease up some but niehter of us did"
Lillian got up to fetch the sausage then as she hummed dissaprovingly. "I do wish you would relax, you don't have to prove anything to anyone sweety!" Again Nyx giggled but this time nervously. "Hey mom?" Her mind flicked to a name she had heard Allmight mention to Izuku once as she looked into her mothers eyes. "What is it dear?" Nyx took a sip of the orange juice that had been sitting there and sighed. "I think I may be meeting a half sibling today and I'm a little nervous about that to be honest. What if Father managed to brain wash this one?"
"Sweety all you can do is introduce yourself if you want this sibling to know about you and hope for the best. I knew Enji wasn't really leaving her back then for me but at least he gave me you." Nyx blushed and stood to hug her mother, then proceeded to help serve their breakfast and sat again to eat as they chatted idly about how this half sibling may be and how best to approach if she chose to. Once they had finished, Nyx kissed her mother on the cheek and walked out to head for the entrance axams alone.
The crowd of students waiting for the exams was huge but Nyx remained calm as she surveyed them all, taking quick mental notes on who to possibly watch out for. She hadn't been there more than a few minutes when she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see Izuku smiling nervously at her. "Izuku, you look ill are you alright?" The boy nodded excitedly at her and smiled. "Just nervous is all, what about you?" They were interupted then by an angry looking blonde kid with spikey hair and red eyes. "DEKU! I told you not to apply here!"
Nyx calmly stepped between them and ignited her right hand, holding it up in warning. "I'm not sure what your problem is but he has just as much right to be here as everyone else so please back off and save it for the exam." The blonde growled and glared at Izuku but walked away fuming to himself as Izuku shakily laughed. "You didn't have to do that Nyx, Kacchan and I grew up together.." She looked at him with a stunned expression. "That was a friend of yours? He seemed to hate you.." Izuku looked down sadly. "He does, he always calls me a quirkless loser but he's amazing and he wasn't always like this..just since his quirk manifested."
Present Mic began speaking then and everyone looked up at him as they listened to him explaining the exam, Nyx however took this moment to look around again and work her way to the front of the crowd to get a better look at the students there too. She braced herself though as she heard the pro hero yell out for them to begin. Everyone started racing forward and she joined them in a sprint, pacing herself so as not to waste all her energy at the start of the race. She looked around and grinned.
A group of 2 point robots were heading towards them and as others prepared to battle, Nyx simply lifted her right hand and blasted them with purple electric causing more than a few to stop and gawk at her in shock as she raced on looking for more robots. A sudden shock of electricity shot past her and took down a robot infront of her, causing her to look for the user who was grinning back at her. "Hey their cutie, I see we both share an electrifying bond hmm?" He winked and Nyx scoffed, rolling her eyes and continueing on her way.
She found herself surounded by a group of 3 pointers then and placed both her palms together, creating a brilliant purple light between them before releasing a stream of violet fire with an electrical current in the center as she spun around. The robots blew apart to reveal the same boy from a few minutes ago now looking stunned. "Move!" She sent the same attack right at him as he dodged and it struck the robot that had been attacking from behind him.
Meanwhile she noticed her friend Izuku racing around trying to find his own targets, she frowned and wondered why he wasn't using his quirk yet but shrugged and went on her way until a huge commotion made her pause. A massive robot had risen from the buildings and was now towering above them all, sending frightened students racing back towards her and the way she had come. Izuku was there too and she watched as if in slow motion as he suddenly jumped and landed a powerful blow on its head, knocking it back and disabling it.
It was at that moment Nyx realized there was a girl trapped in the rubble and sprang forward towards her, kneeling and swiftly lifting the debry off her. "Are you alright?" The girl nodded and tapped the debry as she laid on it and began floating upwards towards a falling Izuku before slapping his cheek and floating him down slowly. Nyx sighed with relief as she watched her friend return to the ground until she saw how broken he looked. "Izuku!" She went to his side as he passed out, checking his wrist for a pulse and hearing the test was over.
She looked at the girl then and smiled. "Thank you for saving him, he's my only friend here so far. My name is Nyx by the way." The girl wiped her mouth and smiled back at her with a blush. "It was no problem really, he stopped that thing from crushing me! My name is Ochako Uraraka but you can just call me Uraraka if you want." The two girls paused their talk as others gathered and a small old lady approached them. Nyx watched as she knelt and examined her wounded friend before kissing him, causing him to rapidly heal before their very eyes.
Within minutes, he was taken away to the hospital for further healing and rest as everyone began to leave. Nyx was herself heading for the exit when the blonde haired boy from earlier stopped her. "Deku shouldn't have come here at all, now the damn nerd is in the hospital!" He glared at her for a moment before shrugging. "How do you know him anyway? I've never seen you before today." She laughed which earned her another glare that she ignored. "We met at the beach and cleaned it up together. Izuku spoke very highly of you earlier just so you know."
The angry blonde grunted and rolled his eyes. "Whatever, enough about him. I saw what you can do, let's go get something to eat I'm starving." He started walking and she stared in shock at his casual order. "I'm sorry? Did you just order me on a date?" He froze then and growled as his fists clenched. "Do you want some damn food or not?!" She laughed and followed him out and down the street. "Sure but shouldn't we at the very least introduce ourselves?" He smirked at her and held out his hand. "I'm Katsuki Bakugo, there now are you happy?" She shook his hand and nodded. "My name is Nyxlynn but please just call me Nyx.."
"You were pretty impressive out there Nyx, we should spar some time." He glanced at her as they walked along and smirked again. "Of course I would love to kick your ass, I already know how good I am." Nyx laughed and gently pushed him. "Oh really? I was holding back you know! I would love to practice with you though, it could be fun." They walked on in silence as the sun began to set.
