I wanted to showcase a more clever form of Inari's powers, she is not all powerful but she is very smart and very powerful which makes her able to capatilize on her strength in a clever way. I love her.


"So, you've found a successor." Nezu said this as if it was absolute, effortless and without the ever present doubt that filled All Might's soul.

It was comforting that the Chimeric... whatever he was, had so much faith in him. "I think so, sir. Young Izuku is competent and heroic in ways most heroes these days just are not. He has real potential to excel with my power. Hell, even without it I could see him rising as a hero. He has a rare drive and frightening intelligence. As does his sister, if I am being frank, though she is a bit too... rough for my power."

Nezu frowned. "How so?"

"She is overly protective of her brother to a homicidal level, when she learned that my Quirk could blow off his limbs should he not be prepared, she attacked and actually managed to hurt me with a subconcious use of her powers. She is strong, her Quirk and her intelligence are very powerful."

"How did she manage to hurt you. I recognize the name, she applied to our School. Her Quirk allows her to push and pull objects to and from her."

"She used her Quirk to squeeze my organs together, a fine use of her power that I have rarely seen. Most cannot affect within another's body, even with fine tuned control. It was... a little scary to be honest." Yagi rubbed his chest, remembering the pain the girl had inflicted on him. "She didn't even realize what she was doing, it was purely subconcious, a reaction to the threat that her brother was in. Which is why I am speaking of her.

Should they both manage to get in, which I think they will, I would place them in the same class. She is protective and worried for him, he has been bullied and abused by a countless many according to her. I think that being around him in class, while attending therapy, would be best for her. Not overly stressing her out while also connecting the two siblings. They are very close and work well together, even if she is a little coddly and helicopter parenty."

"I see." Nezu nodded. "I will evaluate them both during their trials, and make sure their trials are seperate so we can see them shine as individuals, however if they both get in I will make sure they are classmates. You speak wisely, All Might."

"I try... "

Inari ached, her limbs and mind stretched to the limit over the course of Ten months. She had bolstered her training to match her brothers, inspired by his dedication. However having experience meant that unlike him, she was actually prepared and didn't over do it and thus was forced to spank her brother when he over did it. She was almost sure she deflated his left buttcheek for that crap. He didn't do it again.

Due to her own new training, she expanded her gifts and her body. She was fifty percent more muscular, and had managed to lift three thousand pounds with her Quirk though only shortly. It was an experience, and All Might was a huge help, giving all sorts of pointers and exercises to expand her gifts and her mind. Her brother was the biggest help though, as always, and he helped her majorly. They had three whole notebooks on her Quirk, filled with ideas and suggestions and whatnot from watching telekentic Quirk users and whatnot.

Hell, even their Mom got into it and gave ideas on more subtle uses of their power. Inko Midoriya was an awesome Mom, something Inari already knew but really got solidified from that experience. Her ideas came mostly in the form of dividing her tasks up more, making each movement more managable and safe for her mind. That was the key to how Inko's powers worked, which really helped for Inari. She may have smothered her mother in kisses for that help, not that her mom complained.

Like had changed in other ways throughout the ten months... for one Bakugo, idiot he was, left her brother alone entirely. He didn't start defending Zuzu, but he wasn't mean to him and rarely even looked at him... or her for that matter. Everyone else oohed and ahhed at her display of power, those who were afraid of her starting to admire her. She just growled at them all, hating them for being so fair weather.

And so, the Ten months passed and it was the day of the exam. She was excited for it, in a way she couldn't really say. She knew the truth, unlike Izuku her reasons were more realistic and less shallow then wanting to fulfill a personal dream. She loved her brother but that was true about him... she would never bother him about it but it was true. She wanted to help the disadfranchised, she wanted to help the abused, the vicitms of a society that valued power over practicality or humanity.

This was her chance to do so and she would not give it up!

All Might had asked her not to go to the beach the day of the exam, as to hide how One For All was transfered she guessed, and so she was at the Exam in the second to last row, waiting for it all to start.

After about fifteen minutes, once everyone including Zuzu had arrived, Present Mic of all people took the center stage. She was excited, while she wasn't a huge hero fan like her brother, she liked Present Mic alot.

"What's up, UA candidates? Thanks for tunin' into me, your school DJ. C'mon. And lemme hear ya!" Present Mic said, but no one said a word. The man just brushed it off. "Keeping it mellow, huh? That's fine. I'll skip straight to the main show. Let's talk about how this practical exam is gonna go down, okay? Are you ready? Yeah!"

"Oh my goodness, it's the voice hero, Present Mic. So cool! I listen to his radio show every day of the week. It's so crazy nuts that all the UA teachers are pro heroes," Zuzu loudy muttered as the people around him stared at him. She just laughed a little, enjoying his joy.

"Will you shut up?" Bakugo said, only to grunt when she pointed at him, using her Quirk to essentially slap the back of his head. He knew better then to run his mouth around her.

Present Mic started up again. "Like your application said, today you rockin' boys and girls will be out there conducting ten-minute mock battles in super-hip urban settings. Gird your loins, my friends. After I drop the mic here, you'll head to your specified battle center. Sound good? Okay?" Present Mic said as the screen behind him changes to show the different battle centers.

"I see. they're splitting us up so we can't work with any of our friends," Bakugo said.

"Yeah. You're right. Our examinee numbers are one after the other, but we're assigned to different battle centers," Zuzu replied, looking at their cards.

"Get your eyes off my card. Damn. I..." Bakugo stopped, remembering she was there.

"Okay, okay, let's check out your targets. There are three types of faux villains in every battle center. You'll earn points based on their level of difficulty, so better choose wisely. Your goal in this trial is to use your quirk to raise your score by shredding these faux villains like a mid-song guitar solo. But check it! Make sure you're keeping things heroic. Attacking other examinees is a UA no-no, ya dig?" Present Mic said. The screen behind him changed to show the three robots, and then a mini Present Mic figure crushing the robots.

"Excuse me, sir, but I have a question," A handsome boy with blue hair said, raising his hand.

"Hit me!" Present Mic yells.

A spotlight shines on the handsome boy. "On the printout, you've listed four types of villains. Not three. With all respect, if this is an error on official UA materials, it is shameful. We are exemplary students. We expect the best from Japan's most notable school. A mistake such as this won't do. Additionally, you with the unkempt hair," he said.

"Huh," Izuku said, pointing at himself.

"You've been muttering this entire time. Stop that. If you can't bother to take this seriously, leave. You're distracting the rest of us," He said.

"Sorry," Midoriya muttered as the people around him laughed.

She growled. "He's nervous jackass, if being a bully is your idea of being a hero then get out of here before I toss you out." She didn't care for the gasps, or her brother's blush, she hated people like that

"All right, all right. Examinee number 7111. Thanks for calling in with your request. The fourth villain type is worth zero points. That guy's just an obstacle we'll be throwing in your way. There's one in every battle center. Think of it as a hurdle you should try to avoid. It's not that it can't be beaten, but there's... Kinda no point. I recommend my listeners try to ignore it and focus in the lines toppin' the charts," Present Mic said, as the screen behind him showed the mini Present Mic figure running away from the zero pointer.

"Thank you very much. Please, continue," The annoying but handsome boy said, bowing, before sitting down.

"Oh, I get it. So they're kinda like traps you have to get by in games."

"The whole thing's kinda like a video game, huh?"

"That's all I got for you today. I'll sign off with a little present. A sample of our school motto! As general, Napoleon Bonaparte once laid down. 'A true hero is one who overcomes life's misfortunes.' Mm-hm. Now that's a tasty soundbite. You ready to go beyond? Let's hear a plus ultra! Good luck! Hope you practiced hitting more than just books," Present Mic said.

Inari was breathing deeply, all but meditating as they waited to enter the exam. It was a massive faux city, empty for anything she could feel. No life inside she knew outright, and that was a good thing. Her control was good but her power was unstable by some metrics, against a living target it could get messy. She was grateful for the absence of the living.

Looking around, she quickly realized she was no where near her brother, which was probably a good thing. She would be too worried about him to do well on her own test, but that didn't mean she wasn't eager to watch her Zuzu kick ass! She wanted to see him make history, as he deserved.

"Get ready to start!" A deep but calm voice interrupted her thoughts, making her look forward and focus on expanding her mental range. She instantly felt her power lock onto everything, all targets of her power. "On my mark... three... two... one... GO!"

The gates ripped open and she shot forward, her eyes falling on a set of robots. Smirking, she raised her hands and slapped them together, instantly the robots flew through the air, as if they had been magnitized. They crushed each other, falling away. "That's five points. nice."

Pushing off of the ground, she flew into the air and onto a building, where she saw five more robots just waiting to be destroyed. Floating towards them with her newly fine tuned Goddess Lift, she yanked on one's leg with a Pull, pushed another into a building and made the rest collide into each other. She cackled as she watched the other contestants look at her with shock and some annoyance

"That's twenty points in the first two minutes, damn I'm good."

Of course things were going great until she saw a boy collaspe, crushed by a robot destroyed by... Bakugo of all people.

Her heart ached for a moment and she used her gift to blast the robot off of him, then used a pull to move him to an ally where he'd be safe.

'Damn my good heart.'

She heard more screams, of stunned students and she quickly started to pull them away while destroying more robots.

Damn her good heart.

Within a room with a bunch of monitors on the wall showing videos of everyone taking the test, many powerful pro heros watched the tests in motion.

"Clearly, the examinees have no idea how many villains are present or their location. They have limited time, must cover a vast area, and hunt down every last target. Some use information-gathering abilities to plan out strategies," A Small white mammal said, all but purring at the destruction he was watching. His eyes focused on a masked boy with what looked like tentacles monitoring countless things. "While others rely on speed to pull ahead of their peers."A fast boy with what seemed to be engines for legs kicked through a robot. "Of course, remaining calm under pressure can be a huge advantage." A boy with a belly button laser beamed a smile."As can pure power and combat ability." Bakugo was then seen among the wreckage of destroyed robots. "The most successful students use a combination of all these tactics. They're the ones who rack up the highest scores." He finished, his eyes focusing on a girl, who had pulled six stunned students away from explosions brought on by one Katsuki Bakugo, saving two from underneath robots they had defeated. "Some understand the more nuianced parts of being a hero."

"Hm, I'd say this year's group looks promising," Midnight said, almost purring.

"Well, there's still plenty of time before it's over. The real test has yet to come. Let's see how they react," Snipe said, reaching out and pushing a button, one that would change everything.

''''

"Fifty three points and twelve students saved, damn I'm good." She groaned, her head aching from using her powers so much. " I really need an asprin."

That thought ended quickly as the entire arena started to rumble. She looked up only to see a massive robot shooting from the ground, smoke and dust filled the air as it came into full power. She shuddered and fear overtook her, but not fear for herself, fear for the students standing like terrified lumps.

They were her biggest concern, it didn't matter that they were probably assholes like those that were mean to Zuzu, they needed her and that was that.

"RUN! She ran towards them, shoving kids away with her Quirk, where they jerked like puppets on strings into allyways and buildings. Most cried out in shock or pain, all looked at her with annoyance but they were safe, which was all that mattered.

Her head ached with each save, which only added to a boiling rage within her. Who's idea was this stupid, student endangering test...

Blasting into the air with a blast of power, she landed on the Massive robot with a stumble, rolling through it to find herself in the center. Placing her hands on the dead center, she pushed with her mind through it. She felt it's core, the computer within giving it orders. It was delicate, unlike it's hardened shell... and that was where she would strike."

"GODDESS EMBRACE!" She focused on the center, and with all she had, she created a powerful crushing pull inward, like a blackhole. The robot actually crumpled like a tin can, smoke and fire exploding from newly opened holes. She shuddered, blood oozing from her nose, her eyes bloodshot from the strain. She only had moments until she passed out...

Running, she threw herself off of the robot and pulled herself to saftey where she rolled and collasped, slowly passing out as the strain became too much and darkness took her entirely.


Chapter end, tell me what you think in the reviews.

This was a blast to write.

Love, your Ninja Overlord,
