It's been 10 months since I joined the League, training under Stain's wing and did a little clean up in some filthy beach.
I picked up a few things within those months, like how to defend myself from Stain, doing a tie from Kurogiri and to practise daily, being careful not to overwork myself.
The rest of the time, I go to school and home as if everything is normal.
The schedule was pretty simple: go to school, train with Stain, clean some of the beach, go home and tell my mother I go to after school clubs.
I thought about what Shigaraki said to me.
"First order of business… You'll be going to UA and be our spy."
"What?"
"Haven't you heard? All Might's going to be teaching there, so I suggest you prepare for the Entrance Exams."
UA, the top school for the next generation of heroes. I decided to make the cover story about wanting to be the first Quirkless hero.
I was at the gate, when Bakugo called my insulting nickname, "Deku, get out of my way!"
I rolled my eyes and continued walking, resulting more of that annoying voice pestering me.
We were in the stadium, listening to the more annoying voice of Present Mic, wasting minutes of precious time explaining the entrance exam. And to waste even more time, some Know-It-All in glasses went on shouting about some stupid errors. So, the idiot heroes made mistakes, leave it alone.
Present Mic explained about a 0-pointer and some garbage about video games.
So, I'm at the fake city with my gear of a belt and eight knives I got from Stain. Six on the belt, two on the thighs. The noisy hero appeared again and started the exam.
I found myself face to face with a 1-pointer. I began to recall one of Stain's lessons,
"Disarm your opponent, then take them out."
So, I took a knife and slashed its arms off before stabbing it in the camera.
The rest was a walk in the park. I threw a knife at another robot, slashed some others, all that boring garbage. Then, it went downhill when the giant piece of junk appeared.
Everyone around me ran like cowards. How can they call themselves 'heroes'?
I, then, noticed a girl in its path, tripped. Well, I might as well maintain my cover. So, I ran back and helped the poor girl up.
"You okay?"
She coughed as she stood weakly, "Thanks, I'm Ochako Uraraka."
"Safety first, introductions later."
The 0-pointer kept stomping towards us.
"Quickly, what's your Quirk?"
"My Quirk's called 'Zero Gravity'."
"Okay, how does it work?"
"Well, anything I touch floats. Why?"
I stared at the faux villain, "I need you to make me float and throw me at that thing."
She stared at me worryingly, "But that won't give you any points, I think it would be better to-"
"What kind of hero would I be if I don't save the lives of others? Now, I know this is an exam, but being a hero in real life isn't all about points. It's about doing what's right!"
I turned back to the colossal hindrance and unsheathed my weapons, "Now make me float… AND THROW ME AT THE SOON-TO-BE SCRAP PILE!"
But before she could do anything, the alarm blared and the Voice of the loud one travelled the entire city, "TIME'S UP."
Everyone went on talking amongst themselves. I sighed in disappointment.
It was week since the exam, I was having dinner with my mum, chewing on my fish.
About an hour later, I got the letter and watched the projection with my mother.
It was All Might saying stuff about my actions and everything. Guess the rumours about All Might being a teacher was true.
I got in. For not just Villain Point, but for Rescue Points as well. Guess the hero system's not as corrupted as I thought, but still…
No matter, it's only a matter of time before every hero is wiped off the face of the Earth… but first, I have to get ready for my new class.
