"J-Jacob let go of my arm!" Izuku shouted. He was grabbed by the spartan and was practically being dragged into the center.

"I apologize, we're on borrowed time." Jacob replied as he stopped and let go of Izuku's arm.

"Jacob! Move your ass we got bots to shoot." Olivia shouted as she fired her DMR.

"Well then." He spoke, loading a new clip to his MA37. "See you when this is over."

With a quick goodbye to Izuku he heads back to Olivia where she destroyed a 2 point robot.

"Score." He asked.

"21, you."

He fired his MA37 at a 1 point.

"Make that 24… man, this brings back the days during training." He said.

"Well then…" Olivia replied, loading another clip in her rifle. "Ready?"

"Let's do it." He answered. "On my mark…"

"Three…"

"Two…"

"Six minutes left!" Present Mic shouted into the intercom.

"One."

With that the spartan-llls made a mad dash as both spartan-lll's fired their own guns. With Olivia taking headshots with her DMR and Jacob firing small bursts with his MA37. The faux villains were no match to the 26th century weaponry. Other examinees watch in awe and appalled at sheer brutality yet professional combat of Spartans as both are getting scores.

Suddenly there is an earthquake and dust clouds erupt in the city center. Then a giant robot emerged, taller than most of the buildings at the center.

"A MAC strike might bring that thing down." Jacob mused himself as he switched his MA37 for his XM510 grenade launcher.

"Ow!"

The spartan then sees the girl from the entrance exam. Her leg was caught under rubble. "Olivia checks on her, I provide distraction against that machine." He ordered as he fired a volley of 40mm grenade rounds.

"Are you alright? Can you move?" Olivia asked.

"N-no my leg is stuck." She struggles to move her leg.

"Hold on." Using her spartan strength Olivia then lifts the rubble so that the girl could move out.

"I'm free! Thank you!"

"Don't thank us yet." Olivia said grabbing her away as a 40mm grenade blasts parts of the zero point robots treads.

"I got it immobilized." Jacob shouted. "Now we need to-" he was caught off guard when he saw Izuku do a super jump and punched the robots head, crushing it.

"As I live and breathe. This kid…" Jacob said but noticed that he was falling "ah nuts…" he then rushed to where Izuku was going to fall and used his augmented reflexes to jump and grabbed Izuku before he hit the ground.

"You sir… are nuts." Jacob said to Izuku.

"Times up!" Mic shouted.

"Oh son of…"

"Sorry about the loss." Jacob apologizes to Izuku. "Well let me at least take you to the nurse office.

Nagano, Japan

Training camp building

Jacob is inside the garage fixing up their ride. With the deal made by the captain and the hero group the Wild Wild Pussycats. Fire base Alpha is moved about 2.6 miles away from the training camp but a mini-base is constructed between the area connected both with generators to supply electricity to both the base and the camp. Also Shino Sosaki or her hero name Mandalay and her team allowed residence for the Spartans and ODST as part of their undercover assignment by the captain so as to keep things quiet for the time being.

He is looking at the engine of the warthog till he hears footsteps.

"Kota, I know you're here." Jacob said out loud turning he sees a boy wearing a red hat with horns. Kota was staring at the spartan.

"Why are you joining a school of heroes?" He asked.

"Well two reasons one is the captain orders and two my A.I. Wanted me a break."

"A break?"

"From being a soldier. Didn't Shino show some of our history."

"Only parts that people went up to space."

"Oh, so the creation of the Shaw-Fujikawa slip-space drive event." Jacob said as he continued fixing the warthog's engine.

"Jacob, you receive some mail from U.A. And Kota, Shino made dinner." Prinny appeared from a portable terminal. "Jacob your cousins received theirs, you should check yours."

Jacob groaned lightly and headed where the Spartans and ODST hung around. Outside of the building there is an outdoor cafeteria where students eat. He sees the other spartan-llls and ODST sitting by the tables.

"Hey Jacob join us, we're gonna open our letters." Olivia said to him.

"Come on Jacob, open yours." Makayla encouraged him.

Grabbing his letter, he opened it and a cylinder object landed on the table and a holographic projection appeared. "Apparently they didn't go to space but created holograms." Mateo jokes.

"I AM HERE AS A PROJECTION!" All Might shouted.

"He certainly has enthusiasm." Mateo joked more.

"Now then, young Quinata from written exam you pass excellently well. But in the practical exam, you were well above expectations with both villain points and rescue points resulting in 86 villains points and 76 rescue points. In other words, you young man have passed and ready to join U.A. So go beyond Plus Ultra!" All Might finished as the hologram ended.

"Knew you passed easily." Mateo cheers for Jacob.

"Well if we passed we need to get ready." Olivia said.

"Big things are going to change soon but we'll be ready for things to come." Makayla said.

"Opens your Olivia." Mateo said.

She open hers as others listen in as night brings in and the Spartans and ODST will be ready for things to come for their new lives till the time comes. To return to their old lives in the war.
