Izuku's alarm went off early that morning signifying the start of his heroics career. But first he needed to get ready for the day. Starting with showering and eating breakfast, the most important meal of the day. He picked up some cereal and a banana. It was a light snack, but something to get him to lunch time. He got his bag and some of the required books and headed out. He saw a couple of students in the dorms as he left, but overall there were not many people up that early.

As Izuku wandered through the hallways, he found himself unable to navigate, due to the fact that at the entrance exam he was led in a group to his exam room. And even then, he couldn't remember what room he had been assigned to. Honestly, it was probably a good thing that he headed out as early as he did. Eventually a friendly upperclassman pointed him in the direction of class 1-A. The door to the room was, in a word, massive.

The door was probably designed for those with mutation quirks that made them insanely tall. This was the first step towards his future as a hero. He opened the door and was confronted with the boy he recognized as "Kacchan" and the blue-haired boy from the exam arguing.

'On second thought, Class 1-B is looking fucking marvelous right now' Izuku thought. As he took in the rest of the people in the classroom, he noticed the boy with the bi-colored hair and a very mature looking girl. And at the front of the room he noticed a class roster that assigned them seats. His seat was directly behind Kacchan. Was it too early to try and transfer classes?

The rest of the class began filing in. As they filed in, some of the class formed groups and began to talk while others simply talked to their seat neighbors. Izuku personally put his head down and tried to rest his eyes before his homeroom teacher arrived.

As far as UA went, all the teachers were also pro heroes. He wondered who they would have dealing with Class 1-A. Suddenly the door flew open and there was a yellow sleeping bag in the doorway. It inched forward like a caterpillar before arriving behind the teacher's desk and a man emerged from it. Izuku stared intently as the man pulled out a series of the UA gym uniforms. "It took too long for you guys to get quiet, as heroes you need to be more rational. I'm Shouta Aizawa your homeroom teacher, meet me outside at the practice field in five minutes." And with that he walked out of the room and headed towards the practice field.

Izuku and a few other students stood first to grab their gym uniforms and headed towards the locker rooms to get changed. It didn't take long before all of class 1-A was changed and out on the field. Their teacher looked around at the gathered students before sighing and pulling a strange looking ball from the scarves around his neck. "Bakugo, you got the highest number of villain points, what was your furthest ball throw in high school?"

"84 meters."

"Good, now try it with your quirk."

Bakugo gave a menacing grin before winding up and letting lose a vicious explosion. "DIE!" The ball sailed into the distance and Mr. Aizawa held up a small phone displaying his results. 790.5m.

"The school board still doesn't allow quirk use on physical tests like these, but they're behind the curve. Rationally, we can't measure your progress unless we see everything you have. So, I'll be testing you in eight physical tests and you'll use your quirks." Some of the class expressed excitement for the tests, but that was apparently a bad move. "And did I mention last place will be instantly remove from UA." That instantly brought a ton of tension to most of the class. The bi-colored boy, the mature girl, Bakugo, and Izuku excluded.

Izuku consistently placed in the top four for each of the first five events. All that was left was 50-meter dash, the grip test, and the ball throw. Izuku lined up with Bakugo and they exchanged a look before the race started.

"You remind me of some useless Deku I used to know."

"Oh, do I Kacchan?" Bakugo looked surprised for a moment before the sound signaled to start. Izuku released flames from his hands and feet and burst forward quickly. Finishing the race in 2.07 seconds. About half of Bakugo's time. And overall the best time seen in the 50-meter dash.

That absolutely infuriated Bakugo and he immediately ignited his palms, he wanted answers. As Bakugo rushed to Izuku, he was suddenly wrapped up in a hard cloth. Their teacher's eyes were glowing red, and he was restraining Bakugo with the cloth around his neck. "Why the hell aren't my explosions working!" That comment caught Izuku's attention, his teacher was definitely a person of interest. But first was focusing on not getting sent home.

For the grip test, Izuku used one of his signature flaming arms to apply a good amount of pressure to his grip. He could only manage about 500kg before he would have started to burn away the metal of the grip tester.

And finally, the ball throw came around. Since Bakugo had already gone it was left to the rest of the class. The only notable scores were the mature girl, Yaoyorozu, Izuku thought, and Uraraka who got a score of infinity.

Finally, it was Izuku's turn. Before he threw, though, he had to ask a question. "Mr. Aizawa is there anything in that direction I should avoid hitting?"

Aizawa glared at him for a moment before responding "No, now hurry up so we can get this over with." Izuku had a big grin on his face as he used his fire to send out three flaming rings directly in the path that he was going to throw in. He spun around with the ball and launched it through the rings. As it passed the rings, the ball exploded outward like a cannon. It flew deep into the distance before eventually a large spout of flames erupted into the sky. Aizawa could barely contain his grin as he looked to his device. The ball had gone nearly two kilometers. Finally, Aizawa tallied the results for the quirk apprehension test, but they didn't matter because no one was getting expelled.

They went back to their homeroom to get their syllabi and head back to the dorms, Izuku was surrounded by members of his class talking and asking about how he got the ball to go that far. Rather than talk about himself, Izuku took the time to learn about his classmates and their quirks. He had learned a great deal about his present classmates. Most of them seemed very talkative aside from Kacchan and the bi-colored boy who he found was Todoroki.

The invisible girl, Hagakure Tooru, bounced excitedly around the group returning to the dorm, consisting of her, Ashido Mina, Kirishima Ejirou, Iida Tenya, and Uraraka Ochaco. "So Midoriya what is your quirk called? You used your fire in so many ways I'm curious about it now."

"Yes, I too am curious of your quirk especially since you scored number one overall on the entrance exam." Iida chimed in.

Izuku, who had grown accustomed to being the center of attention due to his time in Asakusa, didn't flinch in the face of conversations. "My quirk is called Pyro-Technic, I can create and manipulate flames at will."

"That doesn't explain how you launched the ball that far." said Iida.

"Oh that, I fixed those first flames in points at a distance ahead of me, while also adding my own flames to the original release. My flames from my hand launched it forward fast, but with the extra flame rings I accelerated it even faster so it would go farther. Basically, I made a cannon with flames and shot it. I got the idea from Yaoyorozu." Izuku explained.

"So, you had never done anything like that before?" Uraraka asked.

"I had done something similar, just never on that scale. That's why I had to ask if there was anything I should avoid before I tried it." Izuku explained as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Truly a model UA student if only we could all…" As Iida went on a rant about how they should all try to be so aware and respectful Izuku let his mind wander. The dorms were in the distance and Izuku felt at home at UA. This is the goal that had seemed so far away when he burned the house down. Now he was here among all these amazing people ready to become the next generation of heroes. He couldn't help the dopey smile forming on his face.

"-do you think, Midoriya"

"Ah, sorry I wasn't listening" and the entire group burst into laughter as they walked into the dorms. There most of the group broke off. The rest of the class was so tired after the apprehension test that once the stress had worn off most of the class was in for the night. Once the commotions of the day died down, Izuku walked through his forms in his room before showering and going to bed. He had a lot on his mind, but he wanted to reconnect with his old friend the most, but that was a problem for another day.
