We have made it to the entrance Exam part that I was hoping to write. Izuku can use this time to shine as well as establish himself as less of a speed brawler he is in cannon to more of a scout-precision striker. He will also meet other future students or they will cameo as from cannon, we know that Iida and Uraraka were in the same zone as him so who knows who else was present. Now onto reviews. The response was mainly positive and I'm thankful for that, it helps to show that you guys like the direction I'm taking here.

Primordial Vortex – Thank you for your comment. I was honestly thinking of making him Iron Man but there are already stories with that plot with authors who can probably handle the idea better than I can, besides, in my opinion, Izuku just isn't cocky/arrogant/otherwise flawed enough for it to fit, maybe someone like Katsuki since he is smart and cocky to have built suits if he didn't have such a battle orientated quick.

Someguy – I would like to thank you for pointing that first one out, I completely forget that as I intended for Izuku to mention Hawks when he was ten when I learned how old Hawks is but I forget to make that change to the final draft. The parts about Pewdiepie aren't as odd as one would think as English is the 2nd most spoken language by population and with most entertainment produced in English speaking countries, I can see Izuku learning the language rather early in life as for nothing else, so he could watch more hero based shows and movies and at that point, he had already shown his high intellect and memory skills so it's not impossible. Besides All Might spent time in the states and named his move set after American states and cities so a mega-fan like Izuku picking up the language to feel closer to his first idol…isn't out of the question.

One last thing, whenever All Might or other characters who are known to mix in English words into their original Japanese dub, I'll 'italics' the words so that you can tell which is which.


Chapter 5: Trial of fire…and Robots

(U.A High Hero Course Entrance Exam: Battle Site B)

"It's huge!"

"This is one of the sites for the exam!?"

"It's the size of a town for Christ's sake!"

"How much money does U.A have?!"

'More than I thought apparently.' Izuku thought to himself as he walked off the bus they had used to get to their destination, he would admit that he wasn't expecting…this massive complex which U.A had in their backyard, he knew they had serious cash but this was too much.

He was wearing his workout gear which was his light blue and white tracksuit with his boots and gauntlets were worn over them. He was also fitted with his new compact combat backpack so he was good to go as he'll ever be. 'I don't know where Bakugo saw sent but since I didn't see him on the bus he must be at another one of the sites, Tokoyami was sent to site D so we won't see each other till after this is said and done.' As he walked over to the side away from the rest, he began to clear his mind and relax his body. While he went through the motions his martial arts teacher has shown the class he remembered, he remembered all the doubts and taunts thrown at him over the years.

'You don't have a quirk!'

'There's no way you can ever become a hero kid.'

'You're too weak to be a hero.'

'How can you be a hero without a quirk? Don't be an idiot.'

'You'll only get in the way.'

'He should probably give up now'

'I will become the next number one hero Deku, you hear me!'

"This is it…today…today I prove them all wrong…" Izuku muttered to himself, a frown across his face as he clutched his fist so tight he might have done actual damage to his gear if he didn't recall all the positives he had been blessed to experience.

'Oh baby, you still can become a hero.'

He recalled that one, it was his mother's words to him when he crashed after the faithful visit to the doctor confirmed he would never develop his quirk, it was her answer to his question on whether he could still be a hero.

'I believe in you Izuku, I always will because I know my boy will reach for the stars and claim a place amongst them.'

Those were his father's words to him as they told him the bad news over the phone the next day. He was so happy that his parents believed in him, it gave him strength.

'Well, I will be rooting for you than Izuku, make sure to represent all us quirkless people.'

Melissa told him that after she caught him and her father working on the Mk II, she sat him down for cookies and milk-(her favorite snack at the time)-and announced that she will support him however she could.

'I have faith that you will become a fine hero someday Midoriya.'

Those were Mr. Shield's parting words to him after they were completed he sent word that he was able to complete the Mk IV all by himself. He was bursting at the seams with that one.

'You better become a pro, Izuku-kun, who else am I gonna trust my…beeehind to?'

Yu's comment left him a blushing and stuttering mess that one practice session but he knew she was just teasing him and that she believed he could do the impossible.

.

.

.

He still plans on collecting that reward from her though after this.

'Young Midoriya, you have a heart of gold. I'm sure that if you gave it your all, one day you may just take my place as the number one hero.'

The words of the number one hero, funny…he would have thought that Yagi opinion would have mattered more to him now but…

…He cared more about letting down everyone else, maybe because they all had a part in shaping him, ensuring that the unfairness of life didn't turn him like it did so many others?

"…I WILL succeed and prove that all the faith you all have in me isn't misplaced." He finished his verbal vow of success as he stood straight and tall.

"Okay Start!" Present Mic announced all of a sudden from the observation tower, drawing the attention of most of the examinees.

"What's the matter? There are no countdowns in a real fight! That kid gets it! So get going! The die has been cast, you know!?" Present Mic told them as he pointed to where Izuku was standing before the doors opened and where he was now, which was nearly out of sight and within the battleground. The speed of which he did caught them all off guard as two thoughts prevailed through their minds as they call raced to catch up and begin racking up points.

When the hell did he start moving?!/How fast is he moving to be that far ahead!?


(With Izuku)

Izuku had run at the moment the doors had opened, he had honed his skills and reflexes fighting against all those petty criminals and smugglers along with Yu and unlike the rest of them U.A. hopefuls, he was used to acting and reacting in the spot with no prompt or warning. He had been able to cover such a large distance since his boots greatly increased his running speed by adding more force to each step, allowing him to cover up to twice as much ground with every single step.

"Alright, the boots are working just as I thought they would and I'm only at 99% power. Still, I need to increase the speed since I won't be outrunning any vehicles at this pace, and definitely shouldn't think of challenging Ingenium to a race any time soon." Izuku said to himself as he took a turn down one of the many roads, looking for a target. He was lucky in that regard as he saw a 1 pointer and 3 pointer robot up ahead which to his dismay, didn't look like Mario villains. "And here I was hoping to smash a robot Goomba or two." He lamented as he would have enjoyed that but he resolved to think about that later.

Before the 3 pointers knew what was happening, Izuku had already jumped towards it, powered up the shock generator in his boots, and delivered a major kick to its face, the shockwave from said move caused the entire head and more other portions of the bot to be blown to bit. Izuku didn't stop to bask in his first kill but rather he used the outward force generated from his kick to leap from the downed robot and do the same to the 1 pointer, aiming for its mid-section which caved him under the blow.

"That wasn't too hard, let's see if I can't break some more of them." Izuku said to himself as he ran away looking for more bots to break. As he ran through the streets he came to an open area which luckily for him didn't have anyone else yet. Good thing too since he could see at least 6 one-pointers, 7 two pointers, and 3 three-pointers.

This just keeps getting better and better.

With a purpose in his step and fire in his eyes, the young boy dashed towards the small gathering of robots and was able to crash the head of a 2 pointer with a drop-kick before they knew he was there. All at once, they all came for him.

"Target acquired. We'll kill you!"

"Where have I heard that before?" Izuku said to himself as he recalled that was Bakugo's favorite phrase to say to him. The first one to reach him was a 1 pointer which tried to punch him with a straight punch but he saw throw it like a boy saw through a window and at the last second, hopped to the side and landing on one foot. "Too slow!" Izuku counted as he used his one foot as a spring and jumped back at the 1 pointer, delivering a sick roundhouse to the neck with enough power behind to bend it, heavily damaging the bot. before he could finish it off, another 2-pointer tried to get the jump on him but he avoided it by jumping 2m straight up and watching as it took out its mechanical alley. He landed on top of the 2-pointer and quickly hooked his arms around its neck, kicked off of it, and used the pendulum-styled force generated from that to drive both feet shin-deep into the machine. It was already out of commission but he saw he was slowly being surrounded so he grabbed something from his pocket, planting it on the now wrecked robot, and shot off a grappling line from his left gauntlet towards the fifth floor of a nearby building. He waited for about two 2 pointers and another 1 pointer to get in close before he reeled himself in, just as he made it clear and he saw that they were as close as they were going to get, he detonated the charge he left behind and watched as the additional bots were caught in the blast and shrapnel, reducing them to ruins.

He leaped from his perch towards a 1 pointer just as he fell about 2m, he opened up his wings and fired off his thrusters, shooting him towards his target. He coiled up his legs in a similar manner to a falcon before it grabs its prey and activated the talons on each foot. As he collided with his prey, he grasped into the body, digging his talons deep into the metal before carrying it above a 3 pointer and dropping it on top of it, destroying the both of them. From his position above them he quickly chose his next target and dived right at them, using the force behind him from his acceleration, he was able to cleave through two 2 pointers and another 3-pointer before he flew upwards again and performed the same move. Again and again, till there was nothing but pieces of robot laying around him.

"That's 33 points and there are still about 5 minutes, 54 seconds left. Let's see if I can't add to that." Izuku said to himself as he allowed a smile of battle excitement to grow on his face, he quickly left the scene and flew off towards another part of the battle site, not knowing that a certain brown-haired cutie had seen him dismember all those faux villains like it was nothing.

'He took them all down them like he was used to fighting actual villains. No focus Ochaco, you're here to win it so get moving!' Uraraka thought to herself as he looked for more robots to add to her tally of 28 points so far...but hopefully, it will take a little extra time so that her stomach can calm down before she losses her lunch.


(In the Observation room)

"They all seem to be performing well for the most part." The 18+ Only Hero: Midnight stated as she and the rest of U.A. staff watched the numerous examinees as they went about the battle.

"Yes but that's to be expected when all you have to do is smash some piece of machinery." The Tall and muscular form of the Blood Hero: Vlad King counted.

"Well, we kinda have to dum them down otherwise much fewer people would even pass." The shorter and skinnier Excavation Hero: Power Loader stated as he and the 2nd year students were the ones who built those very same bots, sure they weren't that good they couldn't make them too hard.

"And that's a problem why?" A tired and annoyed voice spoke up from the wall, Power Loader and Vlad King turned to look at their college the Erasure Hero: Eraserhead who for some reason didn't opt to use the chairs but stand by himself.

"Of course you would not see the issue with that." Vlad King said as it was no secret Eraserhead wanted their trials to be much more difficult. "What do you think principal Nezu?" he asked as he turned to the only non-human in the room who up till this point had kept quiet.

"I believe you both have excellent points on the issue here as the robots aren't the best at discerning plausible future students from the rest of the folk but we aren't only using them in such a fashion to pick either." The animal principal and smartest being in the room-Nezu said as he took a sip of his tea.

"Yes, the examinees aren't told how many villains are in their respective sites nor were they informed of their locations. They have a limited amount of time to find and defeat their targets in such a vast area so in essence, the exam isn't really about stacking up points, that's just one part of it." The pro hero, Snipe spoke as he looked over to a screen that featured a black-skinned boy cruising around in the shadows and ranking up kills from unsuspecting bots before escaping.

"Information gathering and the ability to understand the situation before anybody else." The one screen was a feed of a rather tall boy using his tentacle-like arms to scout the area before him. "Mobility that can be used in plenty of circumstances." Another showed a well-built boy coming to a halt after using his impressive speed to defeat a 2 pointer. "Discernment to able to stay calm in any situation." Another showed a rather flamboyant boy blasting apart a 3 pointer with a laser coming out of his belt. "And pure combat ability. We watch them all for these traits as having too much of one and not enough of the other can lead to serious issues." Nezu finished as the last screen showed Katsuki laying waste to any who tried to stop him, from the looks of it, he was having fun blowing apart those robots.

"We also factor in their ability to adapt to a changing situation and battleground, how well they work with others and analyze the situation for what it is and react according to as well as those who can strike and end a situation before it can get out of hand." The Pro hero Cementoss stated as he looked towards the feed which showed how Izuku would watch from above, quickly make a judgment call and swoop in, and then fly off. He could help another examinee, get them out of trouble or rake up more points to his score, so far he had the most rescue points at around 14.

"All these combined are the crucial traits and skills needed to keep the peace in the streets and are turned into points on this test. HAHAHA." Nezu said with a laugh as he sipped his tea, his co-workers already used to his rather sociopathic personality.

"You seem to be in a good mood today." Another voice spoke up, this time coming from the skinny form of All Might who had taken a seat behind the animal principal.

"Because one student we have is already showing those last few traits right now, and he is the one I was expected to put on quite the show for us." Nezu answered which caught all their attention as Nezu was not only the oldest person in the room but very hard to please, some of them like Eraserhead who were former students at U.A recall that even during their time at the school, Nezu was never one to hand out compliments but you had to be observant to notice as he was still quite polite and cheeky.

"Oh, why's that?" Snipe inquired for the sake of the collective group.

"He would have been accepted into U.A. via recommendation because David Shield took the boy under his wings and is fully confident in Midoriya's skills, regardless of him being quirkless." Nezu revealed, shocking them all, especially All Might who had never imagined his old friend would do that. Hell, David rarely took students as he was always busy being a father and inventor. At the same time, they all turned their attention to the screen with Izuku on it and show how he was quite skilled in taking out the bots, almost as if he had experience.

"Then why didn't he put in the recommendation then?" Midnight asked, it didn't make sense for someone of such status and influence to praise a potential student but not put in a word for their acceptance.

"Because after we had a nice chat the other day, we both figured that the young lad wouldn't want to enter U.A like that. According to the Shield, Midoriya is the kind of boy person who wishes to prove himself by his own accord and not ride easy street, something I find is an admirable trait in the fledgling hero." Nezu explained as he could see the plight of the boy, he was quirkless so he needed to physically prove himself as if people found out he got in due to a recommendation from the famous but quirkless David Shield, they would just chalk it up to favoritism over merit and stop there. Humans were a flawed race if they never stopped to consider the positives of having quirkless heroes, not every quirk was as combat effective or flashy as All Might's and Endeavour's after all.

"He hasn't passed the trail yet." Eraserhead said, getting his attention again as he would admit he was impressed by Izuku's work ethic but he would withhold his judgment till the end of the exam, it was the logical thing to do.

"Yes, we need to see how he and everybody else, deal with this." All Might finished as he pressed the YARUKI switch to let the final part of the exam be revealed.


(Moments before with Izuku)

"Alright, I have a score of 51 points and counting, I haven't seen any more bots but from the sounds of it, they are all gathered by the rest of the people. They must be attracted to a large gathering." Izuku said to himself as he hung off the ledge of a balcony with one hand, the other was raised as he looked through his basic stats on the touchscreen display. Everything was performing all right as nothing was damaged and he was still sitting pretty at around 76% power.

'At this rate, I'm must have already cut as from what I've heard from those morons yelling out their points, the average is in the low 30s.' Izuku thought to himself as he remembered all most of them would call out their points, whether it was to make themselves seem big or to intimidate the rest was beyond them as it served no purpose other than the pointless competition when they should be focused on their affairs, couldn't they count in their heads! He would have continued to mentally rant if not for the huge explosion not too far from him "What the Hell!" he called out as he tried to find the location of that blast. Meanwhile, the rest of the examinees at ground level were voicing their thoughts as well.

"Did, did that building just collapse?!"

"What could have caused it?"

"Not one of these small fries, maybe someone's quirk?"

"Why would they fire off something that powerful? That goes way beyond overkill."

"Hold up, I think I hear something."

As the smoke and dust cleared, a large and foreboding figure appeared. It was massive, standing taller than most of the buildings, and moved on tracks the size of trucks. At the same moment, a metallic hand came around and gripped the building as it turned to reveal it was a giant robot Bowser of all things!

'An Obstacle that will lose its marbles in narrow spaces.' Izuku recalled Present Mic stating as he explained the rules and types of bots they would find but he didn't think that they actually would go and build a Mario villain, it was funny and extremely scary at the same time for crying out loud! "Now I know what he was talking about but…..ISNT THAT OVERKILL TIMES TEN!" Izuku screamed as he watched as the Bowser reared up a fist to strike at the group, he wisely shot off a grappling line to the opposite building and jumped away as the fist came down. The force of it created a blast of air which knocked some people on their asses and damage just about everything in the immediate area.


(In the Observation Room)

"An Overwhelming threat." All Might started as he and the rest of them watched as an overwhelming majority of the examinees ran off in both fear and haste. "How people act after they have seen this shows their true nature." He finished his thought.


(With Izuku)

"Looks like I have to get out of here, no sense sticking around for no gain." Izuku muttered as he collected his wits about himself as he thanked the heavens his line sunk deep enough into the concrete to have saved him from being blown away, still for safe measure he had sunk his now clawed hands and taloned feet into the wall for safe measure.

"Less than two minutes left on the clock, my dear listeners! Pick up the pace and stack up those points!" Present Mic called out to remind them of their time. Izuku was about to fly away when he heard a faint voice from the rubble.

"Ow!"

"What?" Izuku said as he turned his attention to the source of the voice and quickly scanned through the visible rubble for whoever could have called out, it didn't take him long to see that it was from coming from a brown-haired girl lying face down, after that he looked her down to see if there were any visible issues he got spot till he found it.

'Her foot is stuck under the rubble, she can't get out the way. And they're all running away without trying to help!?' Izuku thought in anger as he watched as people ran past her for their safety, did they not know what he meant to be a hero? Were they that short-sighted or were they in it for the money? Either way, he wouldn't stand for it. He fired off his thruster while still latched into the building, causing very noticeable damage but he couldn't bring himself to care as he raced to help her. "Not if I can help it." He vowed as he flew over.


(In the Observation Room)

"It is true that there is no merit in taking down that faux villain…." All Might started as they all watched as Izuku flew towards the threat and not away from it.


(With Ochaco)

"It's the winged guy." Uraraka whispered as she watched the boy fly overhead and head right towards the 0-pointer, was he trying to save her?


(With All Might)

"…but there creates an opportunity. To shine brightly and rise to the surface." All Might continued as some of the teachers watched, wide-eyed as Izuku flew towards the 0-pointer before giving it a nasty, shock-infused kick to the face which left a large dent in the armor, causing smoke from the damaged system to leak out.

"That's right, to rise to the surface. The most important qualification a hero needs…." The number one hero went one as Izuku started to fly around the 0 pointer's face, landing blows here and there and keeping its attention focused solely on him before he flew off, leading the 0-pointer away from the larger crowd which watched all this unfold, stunned that he had the balls to do so even if he meant losing the chance to score more points.

"The Spirit of self-sacrifice." He finished as Izuku kept the big bot busy while the rest could safely move away while the speedster from earlier raced in to assist the young girl whose leg was pinned by the rubble.


(With Izuku)

"One Minute left!" Present Mic called out as he looked at his watch and counted down the seconds. With time short he had least wanted to keep this thing as busy as possible.

"Sorry about this but I always did like beating Bowser to save the princess." Izuku called out as he took a quick and very steep climb upwards, gaining speed and altitude. He kept this up he was about 600m off the ground before he turned around and flew back towards the 0-pointer, building up momentum while rerouting power to the shockwave generator in his one boot. 'This will drain most of what I have left but what the heck.' Izuku thought to himself as he folded up his wings, cut the power to the thrusters, coiled up his body, and started to spin as he fell, gaining more and more centripetal force till he was about 20m above the bot.

At that moment, he straightened his body and stuck out one foot in a kicking motion as he aimed right for the Robo-bowser's head.

"Diving Eagle Driver!" he yelled out as he came in for the finishing blow, the 0 pointer wasn't fast enough to dodge such an attack so it raised one of its arms to shield itself. A lot of good that did as Izuku hit the body with not only all the momentum he had built up but also his body weight and the devastating boost of the shockwave generators. The result was the near-complete destruction of the 0 pointer's left arm from the attack as everything from the elbow joint was simply destroyed. Izuku didn't have time to try again as Present Mic call out.

"Time's up folks! The Exam is over!"

After that, he landed in a nearby apartment's balcony and walked down the stairs in found to where the rest of the people gathered. Recovery girl made her appearance and handed out medical candy as well as healing those who needed it, she saw to his bruised ankle as he landed funny with that power move but luckily he wasn't anything serious. He didn't pay much attention to the looks he was getting nor the not so quiet whispers about what he did–(he was used to blocking out the opinions of others after all)–he turned to look for the girl he helped and after seeing her standing next to the tall runner, he felt relieved that she seemed to be okay so he saw it best not to approach her at the time.

Though that fancy-looking boy did have a point about U.A. only being able to get away with such a dangerous and unconventional exam because Recovery girl could see to most injuries and treat them better than the standard hospital. Still, he was kinda awkward being kissed by an old lady beside his grandmother's-(maybe he should call them when he got home? See how they were doing)-he also found it funny and relieving to hear she still went by 'The Youthful Hero' even though her youth had long since ended, it added to her approachability he supposed as one needs to be calm and relaxed around those who heal.


(One week later)

"Izuku…?" A voice called out

"Izuku?" The voice called out again, this time louder

"Midoriya Izuku!" another voice called out, his mother! He came out of his daze to see that he was seated at the table with both his mother and Yu-(who his mother invited over for dinner)-he looked down and saw that he was still holding his fish to his mouth but it had no bite marks or missing bits. How long was he lost in thought?

"Wha-!" He responded out but was interrupted by the pro hero present.

"Stop staring at the fish with a smile, it's freaking us out!" Yu scolded as both her and his mother looked creeped out by his blank face, and the fish.

"Sorry!" Izuku apologized as he took a bite of his fish and looked down towards his plate to hide his embarrassed and red face.

"Serious, what's in your mind? You're usually more focused than this?" Yu asked him after a few calming moments.

"Just, just thinking of if I passed or not." Izuku replied honestly, there was no point in lying so he just came out with it.

"Don't you worry dear, with what you told us, there's no way you didn't." Inko told him as she reached over the placed a reassuring hand over his own to help with his nerves.

"Your mom's right Izuku-kun, you're the smartest person I know so I don't think you need to worry about the written portion at the very least." Yu agreed as she had seen what the teen could do and was quite proud about it, one day she could show him off to all the other girls that said she was too much of a slob and air-head to ever find a decent partner.

"Yeah, yeah your right, I gotta be more positive!" Izuku said with a smile as he quickly took a sip of the soup, forgetting that it was near boiling. "Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, Hot!" he screamed with his mouth full as he tried to fan it to cool it down.

"That's what happens when you don't watch what you put in your mouth you brat!" Yu yelled as she handed him his water to wash it down and cool his tongue. Afterward, they continued to peacefully eat dinner passing the time with conversation and details about each other's week. Yu was on the up and up as she was able to stop a bank heist, assist the police to recover a kidnapped boy and return him to his parents, fight off 3 rampaging villains, and was able to clean her place-(something they all knew was the real achievement for her).

Afterward, they all sat down and watched some American cartoons to put them at ease which went on for a while. Izuku for his part knew that he passed the written portion, no doubt there and he also racked up 51 points but he was still nervous. U.A. attracts the best talent in Japan and abroad so he hoped that their benchmark wasn't something too high. He had also tried to get into contact with All Might but he had been busy all week so no such luck there.

It was another hour before the two love birds decided that they should head on down to his labs so he could do something with his hands as he fidgeted the entire time they watched those old Tom & Jerry cartoons. This brings us to the present with Yu laying on the bed while Izuku worked on one of the boots he had used during the exam.

"Neko, how is it now?" Izuku asked his A.I. as he put the boot down for it to be scanned.

"As stated before sir, the boots are fine. You need to rest as this isn't good for you." Neko informed him after the scan was completed and came back with no faults.

"You should listen to her you know, you did design her." Yu stated as she got up and walked over.

"I'm just…not in the mood for sleep." Izuku protested weakly as Yu wrapped her arms around him in a gesture of intimacy.

"Well you do need it, you can't be a hero if you are always tired and high strung." Yu said as she poked him in the cheek.

"Well, I need something to help with the nerves and the fridge down here only has milk for coffee and energy drinks." Izuku counted as he never stocked the thing with foods that help him sleep.

"Your mom must hate that." Yu teased as she knew just how much of a fitness junkie Inko could be. It was why there were rarely any sweets in the house that she bought.

"Yeah, yeah she does, says it will ruin my stomach." Izuku answered with a small smile as he leaned into her embrace, relaxing somewhat.

"Sir, if you would like, I can play some calming music that you recently added to my music folders." Neko informed them as the main screen showed the before-mentioned file.

"[sign] I appreciate that Neko, please do." Izuku requested as he allowed Yu to guide him to the couch he had recently had moved in, all while Window to the Abbey played in the background. they were about to sit down and relax but were interrupted by the intercom going off.

"Izuku!" Inko called as she tried to keep her calm but wasn't having much luck at it.

"Wha-! Yes-Yes Mother?" Izuku asked as he and Yu scrambled to their feet.

"The letter just came, come quickly!" Inko said over the com-link as he and Yu rushed up the elevator to see for themselves and true to her word, Inko stood next to the phone while holding the letter in hand. It was a while later they were back in the lad, seated on the couch as Izuku held the letter but didn't open it.

"No sense just looking at it all night." Yu stated as she looked down at the letter with more than a little nerve, she knew her Izu-kun made it in and if they for some reason refused him, she was going to head over there and have a talk with them!

Izuku slapped his cheeks to calm himself down before he tore open the top of the letter, inside was a letter and a metallic-looking disc, he took the disc out and placed it on the table, but once he did, it turned on and projected the last person the both of them were expecting to see.

"I am here as a projection!" All Might announced as he appeared on screen wearing the same yellow suit he often wore during interviews.

.

.

.

"The Hell!" Yu called out.

"All Might?!" Izuku asked as he was more confused than ever now.

"Wait, I thought this was from U.A., right?" Yu asked as she checked the back of the envelope and saw that it had the U.A. crest and school name at the bottom of it.

"I had to do some paperwork that took me all week so I have been otherwise unavailable, sorry about that." All Might apologized with a bow, answering Izuku unspoken question about what he had been doing all week. "I came to this town to work for U.A., you are looking at the newest teacher!" All Might finished as he pointed towards himself at that last part, amazing the both of them.

"Hold on, he's going to teach at U.A?" Izuku asked as he never heard of this, why would he want to teach? Was it because he was soon to retire?

"Young Midoriya, I am happy to tell you that you not only passed the written portion of the exam with the 2nd highest of all the applicants, the recommendation included but you only scored an impressive 51 points during the practical…or did you?" All Might said cryptically as he waved his finger at them. Yu gave him a hug and peck on the cheek when she heard that he scored so well on the written exam. Something that brought a smile to his face even if he was still confused.

"What does he mean? I was sure to count as I went along." Izuku asked he was sure he kept an accurate count of his points. Luckily for them, All Might choose this time to explain even if he was a recording.

"Here is a short clip of what you did that day!" All Might announced as he pointed towards a TV in the background and hit the play button on the remote.

What followed was the complete exam from the perspectives of the cameras assigned to monitor Izuku personally. They watched as he displayed the combat skills he had honed over years of fighting thugs and smugglers. His reflexes and flight capabilities and how easily he took down bots he found. But they also saw how he took time to assist others by directing them towards the bots that he could see from his bird's eye view, how he would assist them in fighting off the robots if they got too much or carried them off if they couldn't handle them by themselves.

They saw him help others just like he always did like he always wanted to do.

"You not only helped that young lady but you also took the time and effort to assist others with their fights, but you took the time to carry them away from harm, even though it meant less time for you to gather your points. That my boy was the actions of a heroic heart which is why the practical didn't just have villain point but also…RESCUE POINTS!" All Might told them with a bigger smile than usual as he revealed that the exam was more than just punching and kicking hard.

"Oh my little Izu-kun, your just a sweet little cinnamon roll, aren't you?" Yu teased as she pressed his head towards her chest and hugged him harder and harder. She couldn't help it, she was just so proud of him and his noble heart.

"y-Yu-chan! Please!" Izuku begged with a massive blush as he could feel more than he was prepared to from the embrace.

"How can a hero course reject someone who saves others and does the right thing? Perish the thought! Call that lip service? Fine by me!" All Might defended his position as he kept on explaining. "This is a job that requires one to risk their lives to put that lip service into practice!" All Might finished as he took a breath before he dropped the bomb and showed the real results of the practical.

"You young Midoriya were awarded by a panel of judges a total score of 88 rescue points for your honest and helpful actions! Which gives you a total score of 139 points!" All Might proclaimed as she showed them the board and as he said, Izuku had scored 51 points worth in villain points alone which alone put him would have put him at 7th place but with the 88 rescue points, he was sitting pretty at the number one spot with close to double the score Bakugo achieved with his second-place spot which he earned with villain points alone as he had no rescue points whatsoever. "You pass with flying colours!" All Might finished as he let that sink in. For his part, Izuku was starting to tear up as he listened in, he knew he should be expectant of his success as worked harder than just about everyone else just to stand at the starting line but he couldn't stop the tears of joy from running down his cheeks but he did love that Yu took him into another more comforting hug as she had her waterworks to deal with.

"Come, young Midoriya, this…is your hero academia." All Might finished as the projection cut and it turned off. In its absence, Yu and Izuku hugged and cried in joy at his success. After a while those hugs turned into kisses, those kisses turned into make-out sessions while after a few minutes, they found themselves once more on the bed with most of the clothes off.

They spent the rest of the night exchanging their virginities for the others and exploring levels of intimacy that they had never done or felt with other people.

It was a good end to a good week.


Well, that was a bit harder than I thought it would be to write but I hope I did it justice. The battle trial was more fun to write but I had to cut some stuff out otherwise I would have put too much focus on Izuku, I'm trying to balance the story so he isn't the most scene character but the main character-(there's a difference, I assure you).

The zero-pointer being based on Bowser was something that I thought would be funny for Nezu to approve and in his character, as now the young blood he was testing were faced with something straight out of a video game which now sparked fear in their hearts.

Izuku choosing to distract and then lead it away fits his character type for this story as I somewhat based his fighting style off Crane and Shen from the Kung-Fu Panda franchise and Donatello from TNMT(2012), all three don't have the power or don't prefer to use such in combat and use other means to defeat their opponents. Izuku as you can imagine doesn't have the power needed to smash the Zero pointer as he did in canon-(which got him an broken arm and both legs broken as well).

He may come off as more critical but there's a reason for that, he is more confident in himself as he feels more comfortable voicing his opinions but he still has his manners so he won't always speak his mind.

As you can guess, the moves that both heroes and villains use that we know are power moves will be highlighted as such to help distance them from the rest of the text.

As you call saw, Izuku got first place rather in seventh as not only did he actually score villain points which I kept at a reasonable number but he also scored more rescue points than cannon as he did more than just break himself helping out Uraraka so he makes sense that he would be awarded higher scores for that, after all, if you don't count himself and the gravity nullifier, people like Kendo scored 40 rescue points, so adding 28 to Midoriya's score isn't impossible. (By the way, I can only imagine Katsuki's face when he got his results and saw that Izuku blew his score out of the water and let it to dry)

I didn't write a lemon scene as I'll probable get someone else to write one for me down the line but for now, there won't be such things, only super intimate make-outs/hugs, etc.

The next chapter will cover the first day and like always, will deviant from cannon in more ways than one.

The song that Neko chose was Troy Baker's 'Window to the Abbey' if you're interested, a very simple but enjoyable song to listen to.
